Lithotripsy is a procedure that uses shock waves to break up stones in the kidney, bladder, or ureter (tube that carries urine from your kidneys to your bladder). After the procedure, the tiny pieces of stones pass out of your body in your urine.
Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) is the most common type of lithotripsy. "Extracorporeal" means outside the body.
To get ready for the procedure, you will put on a hospital gown and lie on an exam table on top of a soft, water-filled cushion.
You will be given medicine for pain or to help you relax before the procedure starts. You will also be given antibiotics
When you have the procedure, you may be given general anesthesia for the procedure. You will be asleep and pain-free.
High-energy shock waves, also called sound waves, will pass through your body until they hit the kidney stones. If you are awake, You may feel a tapping feeling when this starts. The waves break the stones into tiny pieces.
The lithotripsy procedure should take about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
A tube may be placed through your bladder or back into your kidney. This tube will drain urine from your kidney until all the small pieces of stone pass out of your body. This may be done before or after your lithotripsy treatment.
Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy; Shock wave lithotripsy; Laser lithotripsy; Percutaneous lithotripsy; Endoscopic lithotripsy; ESWL; Renal calculi-lithotripsy

Lithotripsy is safe most of the time. Talk to your doctor about possible complications such as:
Always tell your doctor or nurse:
During the days before the surgery:
On the day of your procedure:
After the procedure, you will stay in the recovery room for up to about 2 hours. Most people are able to go home the day of their procedure . You will be given a urine strainer to catch the bits of stone passed in your urine.
How well you do depends on the number of stones you have, their size, and where in your urinary system they are. Most of the time, lithotripsy removes all the stones.

Narrow your search
Though the ZTE ZMax has some design flaws, they're minor enough to overlook if you want an incredibly inexpensive phablet off-contract.
The Personal CellSpot is an all-around excellent home Wi-Fi router with no monthly fees that also works very well with Wi-Fi calling.
Pricing not available
The T-Mobile 768 is a good option for those with modest needs and budgets, but don't expect anything more than making calls.
Though it doesn't have LTE and takes unimpressive photos, the LG Optimus L90 remains a worthy midrange contender that you should look at if you're on a budget.
Fans of messaging phones will appreciate that the reasonably-priced Optimus F3Q carries out the basics without breaking a sweat. Its unfortunately scant on-board storage is not a deal-breaker.
Even if you're on a tight budget, you should skip Alcatel's One Touch Fierce in favor of a better prepaid phone.
If you're not opting for a smartphone and you can look past its dated design, the Samsung Gravity Q is your best choice for a T-Mobile keyboard phone.
Get the T-Mobile Prism 2 if you want an inexpensive and dependable 3G phone, but skip it if you prioritize speedy performance.
The Sony Xperia Z makes sense if a water-resistant design and excellent photos are a priority, but skip it if you demand blazingly fast performance and long battery life.
Pricing not available
The Alcatel-made T-Mobile Sparq is a QWERTY feature phone for those looking for the utmost in simple keybaord communication.

So, you have finally decided that you have no use for the car you currently own. That is alright, most of the cars will tend to get behind their time and stop having a high utilization rate at some point. With brand new series coming out all the time, the older versions happen to be rendered useless. While you can attempt and sell it to someone, if the car happens to be really old, there aren't a lot of chances you will encounter a willing buyer.
You don't need to sell it to make a profit
Another option for you to consider would be scrapping your car. It is arguable that selling it could get you more money, but, as mentioned before, if it was really old, it wouldn't be likely that you'd get a good deal. If you scrap it, however, you are guaranteed to receive a sum of money for the worth of the car as scrap metal.
First know what this means
If you have made a decision, and you made it to the point where you realize that scrapping your car is the option you want to go with, you may want to step back and examine your choices carefully. If you are thinking that scrapping it as easy as thinking 'i want to scrap my car', you may want to take a step back and see what it is all about.
You don't need to scrap the entire car
You are having your car picked up. You will receive a compensation sum for it, of course, but you may be wondering just what are the circumstances. If you are wondering whether or not your car will be able to be qualified for this sort of a trade, rest assured that almost any car will do. Not even an entire car is needed for something like this. If you would like to strip just several parts and sell them, you could have that option as well.
It can be towed to the location, for your convenience
Even if your car is no longer in function, the scrapping centers could still use the resources gained from breaking it apart. Most of the services in this area will offer to have their vehicle tow your car to the center and scrap it there, free of charge. You may want to make sure that all of your personal documents and other valuables are removed from the vehicle, before it is collected.
You surely wouldn't want those to stay there and get out of reach when you may need them the most. Also, if your car has not been used in a while and it happens to be full of scrap metal, be sure to mention it as you schedule the pickup.

Calling All Panda Lovers! CPTV Presents an Evening Devoted to One of the World's Most Beloved Animals
Panda Tales Premieres at 8 p.m., followed by Panda Nursery at 8:45 p.m., on Tuesday, July 21 on Connecticut Public Television (CPTV)
Since making her entrance into the world, Zhen Zhen, fourth in the line of the San Diego Zoo's "royal family," has captivated legions with her antics and charm. The giant panda cub's first year was marked not only by her milestones and those of her siblings, but also by the massive earthquake in China that devastated the giant panda breeding center closely tied to the zoo's conservation efforts.
Panda Tales, airing on Tuesday, July 21 at 8 p.m. on CPTV, highlights a time of excitement and learning — and not just for Zhen Zhen. A decade ago, the panda population in the wild was dwindling dangerously due to a low reproductive rate, a disappearing habitat and vanishing food sources. Thanks to knowledge gleaned partly through the zoo's research, pandas at the Wolong Giant Panda Breeding Center and Reserve in China, one of the San Diego's partners in conservation, now mate naturally and successfully nurture and raise their offspring. In the past 10 years, the population there has quadrupled.
Amid the story of Zhen Zhen's progress, an unexpected storyline emerged nine months into filming. A massive earthquake in China on May 12 struck in the heart of panda country. At Wolong, many of the giant panda enclosures were destroyed or severely damaged. Panda Tales captures the zoo team's concern for their colleagues in China, as well as plans to aid in the breeding center's rebuilding.
Though there is no shortage of endearing clips of Zhen Zhen as she grows, Panda Tales is much more than a collection of "aw"-inspiring images. The program takes a serious look at the plight of the giant panda and how the zoo's program has affected the resurgence of this endearing species.
Following Panda Tales is the special, Panda Nursery, at 8:45 pm on CPTV. Panda Nursery is the inspiring story of the birth of twin panda cubs at Wolong Natural Reservation Park in Sichuan, China. The cubs are the product of years of focused and often frustrating work – by scientists and conservationists. This documentary covers the first six months of life of twin giant panda cubs, and their incredible struggle for survival.

Newsflash: Innovation, health and sustainability are the themes for Barry Callebaut's presence at the FIE this year
Wieze/Belgium, 23 September 2013 – Barry Callebaut, the world's leading manufacturer of high-quality cocoa and chocolate products, will be present at the upcoming Food Ingredient Europe (FIE) trade fair in Frankfurt from 19 to 21 November 2013 (booth 8H31).
It' all about cocoa!
Highlights at this year's booth of Barry Callebaut at FIE:
- Pioneering news: The health claim recently approved for ACTICOA® cocoa and chocolate
- The COCOART™ Collection, a new range of E-number free cocoa decorations
- Cocoa Horizons projects: further expansion of our Quality Partner Program (QPP) and the latest developments regarding our Cocoa Horizons Truck
- Our Bensdorp® cocoa range (170 years of cocoa powder expertise!) has undergone a complete restyling
- And also: nibs! Roasted, broken cocoa kernels: how much closer can you get to the basics?
Pioneering news
Visitors to Barry Callebaut's booth will get an up close and personal look at how Barry Callebaut is leading innovating in the world of cocoa and chocolate. Only recently (September 4, 2013), the European Commission approved Barry Callebaut's health claim submission for the cocoa flavanols that are preserved in the chocolate products of the ACTICOA®-range.
Proprietary right to use the cocoa flavanols claim within EU countries
The company obtained the right to claim that "cocoa flavanols help maintain the elasticity of blood vessels, which contributes to normal blood flow".
In conventional chocolate production, the flavanols are lost during the fermentation stage. Barry Callebaut's research team discovered a way to preserve up to 80% of the flavanols in ACTICOA® chocolate.
Barry Callebaut was able to provide evidence that the daily intake of 200 mg of cocoa flavanols (provided by 2.5 g ACTICOA® cocoa powder or 10 g ACTICOA® dark chocolate) supports a healthy blood circulation by helping to maintain the elasticity of the blood vessels.
This health claim is the first in the cocoa and chocolate industry.
Join us at the fair and discover all about our other innovative and sustainable projects.

J Copyright, 1922, by The College New! Volume VIII. No. 22. BRYN MAWR, PA.; WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1922 Price 10 Cents LADY ASTOR SPEAkS TO LARGE AUDIENCE AT MUSIC ACADEMY Lord and Lady Astor Both Give Short Speech on National Service � "At'Philadelphia was founded <>n broth- erly love," Lady Astor said that she felt that she could speak freely to the Philadel- phian audience which she addressed on Monday, under the auspices of the National Women's Trade Union League. The necessity for Christianity and in- animity was the slogan of her speech, for she said, "you can't make people econom- ically independent and you can't force com- munity spirit." Lady Astor spoke as the representative of the working men and . women of Great 'Britain, and' she consid- ered her warm welcome in .America the recognition that she "was fighting for the world." The League of Nations, or rather of Peace, was the first goal to l>e won, Lady Astor felt, though she said she knew that it was unpopular in Philadelphia "ex- cept with the men who had fought, the women who had suffered, and all living, live people." "For," she said, "War will never end w'ar. The Bolshevists are against war, but they've shown us they can't push the nation far, the reactionaries say the world will always be the same, boi they really mean they'll be; nothing changes them but death, and sometimes it seems as though death wouldn't." "The relation between capital and labor is one of the great problems the war leaves with us, the future world depends on their working together and this is the trend of unionism. Trade unionism stands for common sense and unanimity. It is every woman's duty to see that all working women have a chance undfr possible condi- tions, under conditions we would like our children to have. I should rather my child would have a chance in industry than leal outside of it." "I sound," Lady Astor acknowledged, "like a socialist, but I am no such hum- bug. They preach love to the Hungarian miners and rob their brother. The ideals of socialism are beautiful, but you can't get them through by legislation." "The trouble with people is not that they're wicked, but apathetic. If you want a better country you've got to work for it; men are simply jvhat we women make them, and every woman ought to be ashamed of it." ' "I am not a propagandist," Lady Astor said, "the thing is bigger than a people or a country. No matter what your religion is, put that and sense and unanimity to- gether and save what little civilization we've got left!" . After Lady Astor's address, Lord Astor spoke for a few minutes on peace and how it could, best come through understanding. "The warm welcome and appreciation given to his wife was," he said, "a great tribute to his judgment." Of his speech he said he tried only "to think things out. and not to teach, but to learn from his audience." "What's wrong with the world is," he said, "that we. "aren't using our hearts and heads enough. It is most diffi- cult to think honestly and to understand another's point of view. Unfortunately, we try to adapt ourselves to the things that are wrong in the world, rather than to change them.

JONATHAN MCDONALD: If you've ever wondered if you could put a clutch in your Mustang, yes you can. And we're going to show you how to do it right in your driveway. Of course, we're going to be on a lift, just so we can film it a little better. But you will need average mechanical skill and a pretty good selection of tools.
Also, beyond your new clutch kit, you're going to either want to have your existing flywheel resurfaced or pick up a brand new one. Couple other things to keep in mind. Depending on the mileage of your car, you may want to go ahead and pick up a new clutch fork, a new pivot stud, new flywheel and pressure plate hardware, a new rear main seal, and a new transmission output shaft seal. If your Mustang is rocking a T5, well, then you probably want to go ahead and upgrade to a steel bearing retainer as well. Follow along. We're going to get started with the disassembly.
Disconnect your battery. Remove the shifter boot and remove your shifter handle. Make sure the transmission is in neutral and the parking brake is off with the car chopped. Jack up the car and support the jack stands.
Mark the drive shaft and pinion flange for orientation, and remove the four drive shaft retaining bolts. Slide the drive shaft out of the car and plug the transmission tail shaft seal. Remove the catback-to-midpipe hardware. Unplug and remove the O2 sensors, if equipped, and remove the two midpipe-to-header retaining nuts per side. Disconnect the smog tube, if equipped, and remove the midpipe from the car.
Remove the clutch cable from the clutch fork. Pull the bell housing-to-cable retaining clip and slide the cable free of the bell housing. Unplug all electrical connectors from the transmission. Remove the speedometer cable and position it out of the way.
Leaving the bolts engaged, remove the two cross-member retaining nuts. Support the transmission with a jack. Remove the four transmission-to-bell housing bolts as well as the cross-member bolts.
Lower the jack and slide out the transmission. Grab some help if you need it. The transmission isn't heavy, but it is awkward.
Remove the two starter retaining bolts and slide the starter out of the way. Remove the two lower block plate bolts, and then remove the six bell housing-to-block bolts. Remove the bell housing from the car. Here you can see the reason our clutch failed was one of the disk hub damper springs relocated itself.
Remove the six pressure plate bolts hanging onto the pressure plate so it doesn't fall on you. Pull the pressure plate and disk off the flywheel. Looks like the disc hub broke, allowing the spring to come free.
Remove the six flywheel retaining bolts, holding onto the flywheel so it doesn't fall, and remove it from the engine. Pull off the block plate. Thoroughly clean everything for inspection.
With everything taken apart, now's the opportunity to slow down and thoroughly inspect everything. Pay close attention, because I'm going to walk you through everything that you're going to want to take a close look at.
Start out with your input bearing retainer on your transmission, especially if it's a T5.' If it's stock, it's probably worn, has several grooves in it, and you'll want to go and upgrade it to a steel bearing retainer. Ours has already been done sometime in the past, and it's still good to go.
Your bell housing spacer plate-- if you notice any wear around the starter hole, through it away, put in a new one. An egg-shaped starter hole will cause your starter bolts to come loose, and you'll probably even have engagement issues between the starter and the flywheel.
Inside your bell housing, thoroughly clean and inspect your pivot stud and clutch fork. If either one needs replacement, replace both. That way you don't have wear issues down the road.
On the back of the motor, take a look at your rear main seal. If it shows any signs of dampness, replace it. All this stuff has to come out to get to it anyway, so you might as well do it now. Same thing with the pilot bearing. If there's any signs of wear, just go ahead and replace it. you. can run up your local parts store and rent you a slide hammer and a pilot bearing tool, and it'll make the job extremely easy.
If your car still equipped with a stock clutch cable and quadrant, it really is time to go ahead and upgrade to an aluminum quadrant and an aftermarket adjustable cable. If you already have an aftermarket adjustable cable and it's got some years on it, and it feels a little bit draggy, go ahead and replace it. It'll make your new clutch feel a whole lot better, and it'll keep you going down the road without any failure opportunity later on.
If your flywheel has a nice hue of purple and blue little check marks all over it, go ahead and chunk it. It's not worth resurfacing, because those spots are now hard spots, and it will not wear evenly, even if you have it resurfaced. If it shows just normal rotational wear, we do have the option to drop it off at a machine shop and have it resurfaced, or you can go ahead and replace it with a brand new unit.
Take a look at all of your hardware. If there are any rounded-off heads, any stripped threads, get new hardware. You don't want to have anything break or strip out on you when you're going back together.
For all you '79 to '85 owners, this is for you. Because this car is an '85, it still had the original 10-inch clutch in it. This is a perfect opportunity to go ahead and upgrade to the 10 and 1/2-inch that would be found in an '86 to '95 Mustang. This literally is just bolting on new parts, as the flywheels are the same diameter and the same bolt pattern, so they'll bolt right onto the crankshaft. You will need a 10 and 1/2-inch clutch, obviously, and you will need new clutch hardware.
The difference is on the '79 to '85, the hardware is standard thread and it has a shoulder on the bolt, and that's what locates the pressure plate. On the '86 to '95 10 and 1/-2inch version, there's actually dowel pins in the flywheel to locate the pressure plate, and it uses metric bolts to retain it to the flywheel.
Once everything is thoroughly cleaned, inspected, and replaced if necessary, now you can go back together with your new clutch. If you're looking for more tech videos for your Mustang or Lightning, be sure to subscribe to latemodelrestoration.com to see everything we have coming down the pipe.
If replacing the rear main seal, simply pry it out of place, clean the area, lightly lube the new seal, and tap it into place, being careful not to damage the lip of the seal on the crankshaft flange.
If replacing the pilot bearing, use a slide hammer and pilot bearing tool to remove the pilot bearing. The center roller of the bearing will come out first. Then reinstall the tool and remove the outer shell. Tap the new bearing into place.
Position the block plate back onto the bell housing dowel pins. Align the flywheel holes. Don't worry-- it'll only go on one way. Install the six bolts using thread sealer and torque to 75 to 85 foot pounds. Quick tip-- you can use a couple of pressure plate bolts and a pry bar as a flywheel holder when tightening the flywheel bolts.
Make sure the pilot bearing has enough grease and spray down the flywheel with brake cleaner and thoroughly wipe it down. Install the three pressure plate locating dowel pins into the flywheel. Apply a very light threadlocker to the pressure plate bolts.
Slide the supplied alignment tool into the clutch disk. The raised part of the disk faces away from the flywheel. Engage the pressure plate onto the dowel pins and loosely install the six pressure plate bolts. Make sure the disk and alignment tool are still centered and torque the pressure plate bolts to 12 to 24 foot pounds in a cross pattern.
Remove the alignment tool. Apply grease to the pivot stud pocket on the clutch fork along with a thin film in the areas that the throwout bearing is going to contact. Slide the throwout bearing into place and apply a very thin film of grease to the face of the bearing and a little to the top of the pivot stud. Engage the fork onto the pivot stud. Reinstall the bell housing and torque the six large bolts to 39 to 54 foot pounds.
Install the two small lower bolts. Apply a thin film of grease to the input shaft and the bearing retainer sleeve. Don't put too much, as you don't want it to sling out and get all over the clutch disk.
Lift and slide the transmission back into place. Support with a jack. Install the two cross-member bolts. Install and torque the four transmission-to-bell housing bolts to 45 to 65 foot pounds.
Install the cross-member retaining nuts. Tighten them down. Follow up by reinstalling the speedometer cable, electrical connections, starter, clutch cable, midpipe, catback hardware, drive shaft, shifter handle, and boot.
If you're running just an aluminum quadrant and adjustable cable, run up your adjusting nut against the clutch fork until there's no slack, and then give it a couple extra tightening turns. Run up your lock nut and tighten it down. Test the clutch.
Whenever you push the pedal in all the way, if it doesn't disengage all the way to where you can get it in gear, then crawl back under, loosen up your lock nut, tighten up your adjusting nut a couple more turns against the clutch fork. Tighten your lock nut back up. Try it again. Do that until you get a good pedal feel.
If you've thrown a firewall adjuster into the mix, well, then all you need to do is tighten up your nuts down at the clutch fork and then use the firewall adjuster to make all your final adjustments. Screwing it out away from the firewall will tighten up the cable. Screwing the adjuster in toward the firewall will loosen the cable.
And there you have it-- whole clutch installed. Visit latemodelrestoration.com for many more in-depth videos just like this one.

Going out at at night in Paris is one of the first steps to get to know the different tribes which make up this great city, where cafés, bars and clubs multiply in such way that it is impossible not to find a place that seem custom-made for you.
Before going to the restaurants, bars and clubs, you can enjoy the end of the day with a glass of wine at one of the traditional cafés such as Flore (www.paris.org/Cafes/flore.html) or Café de La Paix (http://www.cafedelapaix.fr/), which are also good for dinner. To feel the "glamour" of the French capital, meeting places like the Hotel Costes (http://www.hotelcostes.com), Regine's or Man Ray is inevitable. Visited by famous people and with a somewhat restricted access, these demand a careful dress code and often, you need to book ahead. Jazz clubs can be a great way to start the night. Lionel Hampton Jazz Club, in Montmartre, or the Petit Journal in Saint-Michel, Saint-Germain-des-Près, are one of the many options available. With hundreds of clubs, Paris is one of the best places in the world to dance. From Latin rhythms to the most recent dance music, there are clubs for all people and all ages. Les Bains Douches, L'Arc Paris and the VIP Room are the most well-known, but there are other classics such as the Salsa Café or Le Duplex, which deserve a visit. Starting in Spring, theme parties in Wagg and Queen become more frequent (www.queen.fr ). Cabarets such as Lido, (www.lido.fr ), Crazy Horse (www.lecrazyhorseparis.com) or Moulin Rouge (www.moulin-rouge.com) keep a loyal audience.

Her T-shirt may say 'Free Bird,' but it looks like reality star Alexis Neiers is anything but. The 'Pretty Wild' star, who previously served time for burglarizing Orlando Blooms' home as part of the 'bling ring,' was arrested on Dec. 1 for a probation violation. According to TMZ, when cops searched her home, they found black tar heroin and a fake Florida license. The 19-year-old could face significant jail time if she's found guilty of violating the terms of her probation.

Hi. You may have been wondering why I've been so quiet lately. Quite frankly I've been busy. Busy at work and busy during my downtime (which is when I do most of my thinking and writing for this blog). This has been a tremendous summer for those of us who are in London. First we celebrated the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations. Then came the Olympics. Yes I stood in the cold and monsoon rain for

Some players turned pro. Some players transferred. Some players turned into Jayhawks.Start Slideshow
Not even two months have passed since we went online with our first projected Top 25 for the 2013-14 season, and already so much has changed that it demands a recount.
So here you go: This one's final, unless something else significant changes, which it probably will: -
Since last we considered the Top 25, UK has learned that Archie Goodwin will not be returning but Willie Cauley-Stein and Alex Poythress are. Losing Goodwin is not without its costs, but what the Wildcats really needed in order for their overwhelming influx of young talent—the No. 1 prospect in the 2013 class at four of the five positions—to help the team confidently challenge for an NCAA championship was physical maturity in the frontcourt along with at least a hint of veteran leadership. And they've got that now.Next
The Spartans hung onto shooting guard Gary Harris and power forward Adreian Payne, who were essential ingredients. What needs to be improved in order for the Spartans to win a championship is the team's playmaking. They finished with more turnovers than assists last season. That's not going to get it done. The team that eliminated them from the NCAAs, Duke, was plus-132. The team that won the tournament, Louisville, was plus-89.Next
All-American shooting guard Russ Smith made a surprising decision to play his senior season—surprising in that he (actually his father) had announced he would move on to the NBA draft. The likelihood that Smith would be undrafted whether he left college this year or in another 10 perhaps convinced him it was wiser to burnish his legacy as a collegian. Louisville needs a fair amount of improvement from reserve center Zach Price as well as to sort out what it wants to do at point guard.Next
If there were some certainty about how the Blue Devils would handle the big-man spot it might even be tempting to pick them to win it all. They will be as talented as they've been in probably a decade. Jabari Parker, Rodney Hood, Rasheed Sulaimon—who wants to guard all of them at once? Plus point guard Quinn Cook has a full year's experience as a starter and there's an army of tough, veteran reserves to fill in whatever gaps develop. But we're still wondering if Marshall Plumlee can play even 20 minutes a game. If he can, well, look out.Next
Perhaps the silliest early entry decision of this season—in fact, maybe the silliest in years—robbed Arizona of an additional frontcourt weapon. Grant Jerrett had the chance to grow into a lottery level talent. Without him, though, the Wildcats still have four major talents up front: Kaleb Tarczewski, Brandon Ashley and freshmen Aaron Gordon and Rondae Jefferson, as well as a point guard transfer T.J. McConnell, to get them the ball in dangerous positions. Interestingly, Jerrett was likely to be the team's best perimeter shooter. That's what this team lacks most.Next
Just how good is Andrew Wiggins? If we're right, he's good enough to carry a team with no returning starters, a wealth of talented young players but no other immediate star and a just-OK point guard to the brink of the Final Four. If Vegas oddsmakers are right, he's good enough to carry the Jayhawks into a fistfight for the national title. Essentially, we're saying he's worth three NCAA Tournament wins, and the wise guys are saying he's worth five. Either way, the answer is: He's pretty doggone good.Next
Let's be honest. Last time we went through this exercise, we figured the Wolverines would be wiped out by the championship-game hangover that figured to send everyone into the NBA draft. No program had greater cause to celebrate when the declarations were done, though, because Michigan retained two talents with All-America potential: center Mitch McGary and forward Glenn Robinson. McGary is going to be a star. Robinson might have to manage the transition to small forward, and that could be problematic. The Wolverines also need incoming freshman Derrick Walton to be a big-time point guard.Next
Yes, we had the Orange at No. 5 just after the Final Four ended. No, they didn't lose anyone significant since, and were delighted to discover reliable forward C.J. Fair will be back for his senior season. So why did we drop them a few spots? A touch of buyer's remorse, perhaps, as well as the need to account for UM's good fortune. We still believe in them more than most anyone. The question they'll need to answer is whether there is enough perimeter shooting. That means Trevor Cooney will have to start playing with confidence.Next
While everyone wondered if P.J. Hairston would leave for the NBA draft, Reggie Bullock slipped out the side door and left a year of eligibility unspent. That removes a productive shooter from the squad, but Hairston's return to the perimeter should erase any concern about that. For Carolina to be this good, or better, they need reliable play from the center position and point guard Marcus Paige to progress nicely into his sophomore season.Next
We had the Cowboys unranked previously, because we had no reason to believe Marcus Smart would be back for a second season. He was projected as a high-level pick in the draft, and certainly wouldn't have gone outside the draft lottery. But he was not pleased with how his freshman season ended and wanted a chance to write another chapter. So here it is: key players intact, Smart to lead them. But is there enough size to get all the way to Dallas?Next
The Buckeyes expected to lose DeShaun Thomas to the NBA, and so did we. Our belief in OSU is based on the presence of veteran guard core and the expected development of F LaQuinton Ross.Next
If there's a team outside the top 10 that could challenge for the title, this might be the best choice. Incoming freshman Kasey Hill didn't shine at the McDonald's game, but we still believe he is a difference-maker.Next
If there's a team outside the top 10 that could challenge for the Final Four, this might be the best choice. The Ducks' addition of grad transfer Mike Moser and the expected development of some terrific freshmen makes them a legit Pac-12 title challenger.Next
This is the coolest stat in college basketball: Every season Bo Ryan has coached the Badgers, they've finished no worse than fourth in the Big Ten. Incredible. And likely to continue.Next
The team's lack of depth very well could become an issue. We're talking like nine scholarship players now, and that includes the new coach's son, Bryce Alford. Will Kyle Anderson have to/get to play the point?Next
The Tigers finally broke through to win an NCAA Tournament game in 2013, after twice falling just short of that. With the talent left over and all that's coming in—considerable on both counts, led by guards Geron Johnson and Joe Jackson—there ought to be enough to win two.Next
If the Zags had held onto Kelly Olynyk, and it was close, they'd have been in our top five. If they'd gotten grad transfer Josh Davis from Tulane, and it was close, they'd be in the top 10. With neither, the frontcourt is capable but thin and there's more pressure on guards Kevin Pangos and especially Gary Bell to score every night.Next
What the Vols needed was a new point guard, and that's exactly what they got. Grad transfer Antonio Barton, in from Memphis, isn't an enormous upgrade over Trae Golden. But he's a change. That matters most.Next
Losing Vander Blue was a blow to a team whose offense never was dynamic, but there are a lot of strong, tough guys left and coach Buzz Williams to make them into a cohesive unit.Next
An already terrific ND backcourt gets another weapon when Demetrius Jackson enrolls to join Eric Atkins and Jerian Grant. Atkins averaged 38.3 minutes last season; Grant averaged 36.3. Think they can't use a break?Next
If the game is about guard play as much as some coaches insist it is, the Huskies should be in excellent shape with Shabazz Napier, Ryan Boatright and Omar Calhoun.Next
This is the next step for the Hawkeyes in Fran McCaffery's reconstruction of the program. Or maybe it's skipping a step, to say they'll go from out of the tournament to a top-tier seed. But they didn't miss by much, and transfer Jarrod Uthoff will deepen an already rich frontcourt led by junior Aaron White.Next
The Crimson won an NCAA Tournament game even though Kyle Casey and Brandyn Curry were not with the team because they withdrew from school because of an academic scandal. They were good for nearly 20 points combined the prior season, and their return to the team will make the Crimson bigger (Casey is 6-7) and more dynamic (Curry is a point guard who averaged 4.9 assists).Next
Is there a point guard in the house? Because if there is, UVa has everything else to take a significant step forward in the ACC. Joe Harris was becoming a star by season's end, and there's lots of young talent around him.Next
The toughest thing to account for in compiling a Top-25 list this season is how the league changes will affect everyone. Butler managed the jump to the A-10, but what about the Big East? IU isn't going anywhere, so perhaps the magic of point guard Yogi Ferrell will quickly bring along a young but talented team.

Performance golf ball fitting focuses on finding the best ball for your game and lowering your score.
Titleist offers the most precise club fitting experience in the game.
Need to customize headwear, gloves, bags, or golf balls?
Track your stats. Get video tips. Set goals for your golf game.
Mine were marked in black: Titleist 1 & <test>. They flew really far! Are we allowed to use these in tournaments and to post scores? Not sure if they comply with Rules of Golf...
Just received a sleeve in the mail last night and the survey link email today.
Ball has slightly larger dimples than current gen Pro V1 and Pro V1x. Markings are Titliest logo, red #1 and the word TEST on alignment aid.
I'm a recent joiner to the forum and really appreciate the chance to test this ball. I plan on testing two of them this weekend and giving the other to a work buddy who's a 4hcp.
Am impressed w/this ball; Black, Titleist 1 and test. Unfortunately, weather in PA now is not conducive to much of a test.
Wet grounds and lower temps make for poor conditions for comparison.
Got the email today from Titleist asking for my opinions of this "test" ball but have only played ONCE!
Balls came last week and email today.....my reply will not signify very much info of any value.
Hope that Titleist will advise us what this test ball becomes, if anything.
If all black markings it is a ProV1, if it has a red # it is a ProViX
as far as i can find they can be used in toury play under append. 3 as long as they not any different in size, shape, weight ECT.

I've had the same experience with my test sleeve.
I along with all here received a sleeve of new balls. I would go with the assumption that the sleeve you receive is based on what you use in your preferences. I use the NXT Tour / Tour S optic yellow. What did I receive a sleeve of optic yellow balls marked "Test". My only issue was that these came late int he year for me as weather in MI is hit or miss these days so the day I got out to hit these balls it was b/t 43-46 degrees, a little chilly but not too bad. What I found was about the same amount of control around the greens and on the approach. The difference I found was distance off the tee and with my 3 wood and long irons. I played a 530+ yard par five in three shots. Nuked the drive which set up a mid 3 hybrid shot that I sent onto the green and then just off the the back edge. A lucky 35 foot left to right break putt for a sweet eagle. I followed that up with a birdie on the very next par 4. If this is in fact the next version oft he NXT Tour S, I'm loving it! Thanks for the test balls Titleist!
I got Black "TEST" # 1 and I play the Titleist NXT Tour ball. I have played the test ball and my ball (NXT Tour) side by side, it takes a little time and you do find yourself explaining why you are playing two balls, but everyone seemed cool with it after I told them it was an official Titleist test program. Oh and nobody wanted to play through! I measured the drive distances and calculated in distances off line. My average drive distance with the "Test" ball was 21 yards additional distance, the "Test" ball also was easier to spin to a short stop on the green, it had nice control. But it also showed wear after only playing two holes and was what I would call well used with some rough spots and fuzz after 18 holes. For tournament play this would be the ball for me and for daily recreational play that would depend on price point. And back to the golf course and all the other players who watched me play, after I showed them my math and with them seeing me play it is going to be a popular ball.
I played with mine for 36 holes- black numbers. They seemed to have more spin off the driver than the ProV1x or Velocity I play but more spin around the green too. Great to be part of the test proogram!
Received received a sleeve of "test" balls. Seemed similar to NXT S, but much longer with hybrids.
If they are test balls, you cannot use them in Competition.
I received a sleeve also. Would like to know what they are. They went straighter and farther for me. B'stone E-6 is in my profile. Played with them in 40 - 45 degree weather and saw improvement. I would buy them if I knew what they are. Thanks for the opportunity.
i guess a velocity or nxt...they have very little spin and land on green with a thud and don't move
I received the test balls last week and played 3 rounds with 1 ball till I lost it in leaves.It was great.More distance and confidence

Hormone therapy (HT) uses one or more female hormones, commonly estrogen and progestin and sometimes testosterone, to treat symptoms of menopause .
Symptoms of menopause include hot flashes, vaginal dryness, mood swings, sleep disorders, and decreased sexual desire. Hormone therapy comes as a pill, patch, injection, vaginal cream, tablet, or ring.
HRT; Estrogen replacement therapy; ERT; Hormone replacement therapy
Hormone therapy may help relieve some of the bothersome symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness and pain with intercourse. The hormone estrogen protects against thinning of the bones ( osteoporosis ).
However, taking hormones may also increase your risk for:
You and your doctor should decide whether hormone therapy is right for you. The key is to weigh the risks of taking hormone therapy against the benefits that you might have from taking these hormones. Every woman is different. Your doctor should be aware of your entire medical history before prescribing hormone therapy.
At this time, short-term use (up to 5 years) of hormone therapy at the lowest possible dose to treat the symptoms of menopause still appears to be safe for many women.
Perhaps the largest benefit women receive from hormone therapy is relief from:
Usually, hot flashes and night sweats are less severe after a couple of years, especially if hormone therapy is slowly reduced.
A woman's body produces less estrogen during and after menopause, which may affect her bone strength. Hormone therapy may also prevent the development of osteoporosis. For information on treating bone loss, see: Osteoporosis .
Studies have not been able to clearly show that hormone therapy helps with urinary incontinence , Alzheimer's disease , or dementia .
Doctors have long known that taking estrogen increases a person's risk for blood clots. Generally, this risk is higher if you use birth control pills, which contain high doses of estrogen. Your risk is even higher if you smoke and take estrogen. The risk is not as high when estrogen skin patches (transdermal estrogen) are used.
Breast cancer: Woman who take estrogen therapy for a long period of time have a small increase in risk for breast cancer. Most guidelines currently consider hormone therapy safe for breast cancer risk when taken for up to 5 years.
Endometrial/uterine cancer: The risk for endometrial cancer is more than five times higher in women who take estrogen therapy alone, compared with those who do not. However, taking progesterone with estrogen seems to protect against this cancer. Endometrial cancer does not develop in women who do not have a uterus.
Heart disease: Estrogen may increase the risk of heart disease in older women, or in women who began estrogen use more than 10 years after their last period. Estrogen is probably the safest when started in women under age 60, or within 10 years after the start of menopause.
Deep venous thrombosis (DVT or blood clot in a vein) and pulmonary embolus (PE or blood clot in the lungs) are more common in women who take oral estrogen, regardless of their age.
Stroke: Women who take estrogen have an increased risk for stroke.
Women who also smoke, have heart disease, or are at higher risk for heart disease and stroke are less likely to be given estrogen hormones.
Several studies have shown that women who take estrogen/progestin therapy have an increased risk for developing gallstones.
As with all medicines, side effects are possible. Some women taking hormone therapy may have:
Changing the dose or form of hormone therapy may help reduce these side effects.
Some women have irregular bleeding when they start taking hormone therapy. Changing the dose often eliminates this side effect. Close follow-up with your doctor is important when you have any unusual bleeding.
Hormone therapy is available in various forms. You may need to try more than one form before finding the one that works best for you.
Estrogen comes in the following forms:
Most women who take estrogen and who have not had their uterus removed also need to take progesterone. Taking these medicines together helps reduce the risk of endometrial (uterine) cancer.
Progesterone or progestin comes in the following forms:
When estrogen and progesterone are prescribed together, your doctor will recommended one of the following schedules:
Additional medications may be recommended for some women with severe symptoms from menopause, or women who are at very high risk for osteoporosis or heart disease. One of these supplemental drugs might be testosterone, a hormone that is more plentiful in males, to improve sex drive. Nonhormonal medications are sometimes used either in addition to, or instead of, hormone therapy.
In addition to hormone therapy, a woman can take other steps to adjust to the changes in life during menopause. Eating healthy foods and getting regular exercise will help decrease bone loss, improve balance, and maintain healthy heart muscle.
It is important to have regular checkups with your health care provider when taking hormone therapy. If you have vaginal bleeding or other unusual symptoms during hormone therapy, call your health care provider.

assembled residence, east hampton, n.y.
Harry Bates, Bates Masi + Architects
An assembly of stock steel columns, arms, and brackets supports many of the home's key design elements, including the mahogany bookshelves.
From file "058r2_ra_hws" entitled "CustomLess3.qxd" page 01
A simple, open floor plan keeps the upstairs library within view from almost anywhere in the house.
At this 1,200-square-foot residence in East Hampton, N.Y., the second-floor circulation space doubles as a library.
bates masi architects, sag harbor, n.y.
By assembling a series of prefabricated components, Paul Masi, AIA, created a well-crafted, interactive building that can adapt to the owner's lifestyle changes. When the client, a writer, decided to down-size, she wrote a letter to Masi, who had also designed her existing house next door.
Leaving out conventions such as number of bedrooms, she described her day and requested only a light, informal structure. Masi designed it as one big room, almost like a library, with secondary spaces feeding off it. The framework is simple, sturdy, and efficient, consisting of concrete foundation walls, formaldehyde-free fiberboard, dyed-concrete wall panels, pre-assembled wood screens, and a cantilevering rack system like those used in lumberyards to hold lifts of plywood. It also has adjustable brackets and arms that support the kitchen cabinetry, fireplace mantle, and the upstairs walkway and mahogany bookshelves. "The rack system provided a lot of flexibility and a lot more for your dollar," Masi says.
"It's a beautiful, efficient, and well-crafted building and a really interesting place to live," said one judge. "It looks like this was designed for somebody who really wanted that space to be what it is."

Torregrossa is an assistant professor in the department of psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Torregrossa's presentation, "Manipulating Memories to Prevent Relapse to Drug Addiction," will review research focused on identifying ways of weakening the strength of drug-associated cue memories to prevent relapse. She will discuss evidence for abnormal cue associated learning in drug addiction, describe possible methods for reducing the motivational power of drug-associated cues manipulations of extinction and/or reconsolidation, and discuss the clinical effectiveness of these treatments.
Torregrossa has been a member of numerous professional societies, including the Society for Neuroscience, College on Problems in Drug Dependence, and Research Society on Alcoholism. She has received four grants during her career including her current grant support for research in phosphoproteomics of extinction and reconsolidation of drug memories.

Our flagship program is the Anti-Corporate Film Festival — a series of film screenings, post-screening Q & A's, and related events. By "anti-corporate" films we don't just mean ones that are independently made, but rather those that examine and reflect the role that corporations play in our daily lives, and the effects they have on people, communities, and cultures around the world, as well as the planet itself.
