The Morehead State Eagles will travel to the Resch Center to take on the Green Bay Phoenix this Wednesday night.
The Morehead State Eagles fell 87-71 to the 12th ranked Ohio State Buckeyes this past Saturday to drop to 4-8 on the season. Ohio State jumped all over Morehead State taking a 47-28 lead at halftime however, put up a spirited effort in the second half in which they shot 63.0% from the field and outscored the Buckeyes 43-40. Leading the way for the Eagles was Corban Collins who had 22 points (8-11 FG) and 2 rebounds. Also contributing was Lyonell Gaines who had 14 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists. On the Season, Morehead State have been led by Angelo Warner (15.3 ppg, 4.2 rpg, 2.8 apg), Corban Collins (10.0 ppg, 3.6 rpg, 2.0 apg), and Kareem Storey (7.8 ppg, 3.4 rpg, 5.2 apg).

Morehead State does well on the offensive glass pulling down 13.5 offensive rpg which ranks 49th in the country. Defensively, the Eagles are allowing their opponents to score 64.7 ppg (ranked 145th) on 42.2% shooting (ranked 178th). Morehead State had done a great job forcing turnovers as they rank 38th in country with 8.6 steals per game however, need to a better job not committing fouls as currently they are averaging 23.0 fouls per game as a team.
USA TODAY Sports
The Green Bay Phoenix improved to 7-2 on the season after defeating the Drake Bulldogs 64-48 this past Saturday. Green Bay had a great defensive effort on the night as they forced the Bulldogs to commit 19 turnovers in the game. Leading the way for the Phoenix was Keifer Sykes who had 23 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists. Keifer Sykes is the leader for Green Bay and was selected as the 2014-15 Pre-Season Horizon Conference Player of the Year. Green Bay suffered a tough 72-48 loss at the hands of Georgia State on December 4th, however, responding well to loss going on the road to defeat the 15th ranked Miami Hurricanes just two days later. On the season, the Phoenix have been led by Keifer Sykes (18.7 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 3.6 apg), Greg Mays (10.3 ppg, 4.2 rpg), and Jordan Fouse (6.3 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 2.4 apg). Green Bay is currently ranked 5th in the RPI standings and has the 5th ranked SOS. Offensively, Green Bay has been averaging 66.1 ppg (ranked 216th) on 45.4% shooting (101st). Defensively, the Phoenix are holding their opponents to 58.2 ppg (ranked 39th) on 38.9% shooting (ranked 68th). Green Bay has done a nice job protecting their basket as they are averaging 5.0 bpg (ranked 46th).
The Eagles are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games however, just 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games following a ATS win. The Phoenix are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 homes games vs. a team with a losing road record and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games following a ATS win.
Green Bay is a good team as their only two losses on the season came on the road against Wisconsin and a very good Georgia State team. Green Bay has one of the best point guards in the country, however, they loss a big part of last year's team that just missed the NCAA tournament in Alec Brown. Morehead State has struggled on the road this season, but I liked how they continued to fight against a tough Ohio State team and I think that they can ride this momentum into their game against Green Bay. I'm going to take the Eagles and the points in this one.

Get the Coverage You Deserve
If you have ever been in an automobile accident, you know exactly how terrifying it can be. You might not have any control for a solid thirty seconds, and you whole life can be completely turned upside down. The cruel reality of the situation is that the aftermath of an auto accident can actually be worse than the accident itself. The fact of the matter is that if you have recently been in an automobile accident, you should not waste any more time when it comes to finding an attorney. There are great auto accident attorneys out there, but you have to go out and find one!
A lot of people are skeptical when they are told to get an auto accident attorney because in the past, most attorneys were thought of as the scum of the earth. A lot of people saw attorneys as people that just wanted to take their money and run, but that is definitely not the case anymore. Today, you can hire an auto accident attorney and basically pay nothing unless you win, but if you do end up winning, you might owe the attorney a small percentage. Either way, it is a good way to save your own butt if you really think about it. You may as well visit website for more informative facts.
Besides the money aspect of it, getting an auto accident attorney can be very useful. You can end up having them speak for you when it comes to communicating with the other parties. They can also communicate with the insurance companies so that you can get the best coverage you deserve. If you were injured in the accident, they can get you the perfect medical expense package, and make sure you are set for the years ahead of you. These attorneys are your one stop shop to a healthier and better lifestyle.
It can be kind of difficult to find a reputable car accident attorney, but if you look hard enough you should be fine. You just have to remember that not everyone out there has your best intentions in mind, and that you need to make sure your auto accident attorney truly cares about your health.
It might sound like a trivial task, but the person you hire will be in charge of your mere future, so make sure that person is responsible and reputable. When you need coverage from the aftermath of an auto accident, you need the services of an auto accident attorney!

Make sure the wbfs partition is marked as active and primary and also check usb loader config file to make sure it is looking for wbfs partition and not fat etc
Hi guys, I'm newb here so if I done anything wrong , forgive me... =)
So I have a problem with my Samsung 320gb HDD. When I bought it from a wii store, there was 2 portion in this HDD, 1 formatted FAT 32 for brew apps, the other part was WBFS. The HDD works fine with Config. Loader. Recently I re-formatted the FAT 32 portion ( contains the loader, installer and stuff, but I have it in my SD card). I again load the drive by config. loader but it just won't load ( usually the lights from the HDD flash, but it won't). All the games in the WBFS portion were there ( I checked it using WBFS manager). Ironically, my second computer ( Mac) won't load the drive either, even the WBFS manager, but my Windows PC works fine, and the WBFS manager do recognize the WBFS portion. Please help, anything appreciated.
If u need my system info then it's 4.2U
I think my drive is not active, when i load config. loader it said the drive is not responding ( I plugged it at correct position), any ideas to activate it like you said?
I really don't want to re-format the drive over again, the drive have considerable size of games, and would be time taking and power consuming to add it all over again. Actually, it appears the loader report that my drive have error RET= -1. I really don't know what it is though, so is there anyway I can solve this. I think it's the drive problem, it won't responding to other devices except my PC. Thanks for your respond....
Actually, my drive was in correct position the whole time. After a few trials, and some googlings. I seriously think the problems is with my drive. The FAT32 portions is not functioning anymore; so before I re-format that portion, all the loaders, installer and stuff actually shows up on the Homebrew channel using the drive( without the SD); now i tried to copy all the files from the SD ( including the loader and stuff) to the FAT 32 portion. The apps won't show up in the Homebrew anymore... I'll try to find an alternative way for the solution. Thanks for helping....
OMG, when you said mark active drive you mean which one?? Sorry for that but i marked the FAT 32 drive as active, now my PC doesn't even show it on my computer anymore ( I plugged it out to try on my Wii, after that I plugged it in again). I'm so freaking out right now, what could go wrong?????

Totally normal...SHEEP spotted in back of car driving through central London
A MAN was stunned after having a casual drive through London and spotting a SHEEP sat in the back of a Volvo.
The farm animal was even making eye contact from the car in front of John Bowden as he made his way home from visiting family.
The 44-year-old said he couldn't believe his eyes when he noticed the baaarmy passenger at traffic lights in south London.
"We had just pulled up at the cross roads and I thought 'hold on – that's a sheep in the back of a Volvo'.
"My wife said 'I've seen it all now'," he told the Mirror.
"My wife said 'I've seen it all now'"John Bowden
The driver in front clearly had a soft spot for the woolly creatures – with a car sticker announcing "I love sheep" plastered to his back windscreen.
Since he posted the pictures of the sheep on Facebook, Mr Bowden said they have had a lot of attention from amused friends.
But it isn't the first time the animal has travelled by car.
In December, a video emerged of a super cool sheep wearing sunnies just chilling in the back of a car.
The sheep, named Magdalene, was even wearing a seatbelt to keep her safe.

Designing a gallery
I'm working on http://www.driftlessprairies.org and I'm wanting to design a page with a gallery that would look like the following for my insect gallery:
1) A list of Family names
2) A person could click on the Family name and a gallery of genus and species photos would come up
3) A person could click on the Genus species name and further photos could pop up along with detailed info of that insect
My question is several fold 1) is this possible? And possible for a non-computer-writing person 2) if so how? 3) my understanding is that captions can be hyperlinked but I don't find an area for captions, only alt text/description.
I really appreciate your help.

I love scented soaps, thanks for the link!
Thread: Favorite fragranced bath soaps?
In the past, I avoided scented soaps. Occasionally, they would irritate my sensitive skin and make me itchy.
However, my friend started making some soaps with essential oils and gave me some as a gift. I got hooked on them and have been buying them from her ever since, even after she moved out-of-state.
She has very nice blends, her soaps are moisturizing, and they don't seem to interfere with my fragrances. So if anyone is interested, here's the website for her company, Soaps of Mother Earth:
My favorites of hers are Caramel (woods, clove, and milk); Blue Moon (lavender, bergamot, and citrus); and Sea Green (clary sage, lavender, fir needle, rosemary and geranium).
Has anyone else also found fragranced soaps that smell nice in the shower and are kind to your skin but don't get in the way of your fragrances? Let me know which--I'd love to continue to expand my repertoire.

Hey, BlackCat. Those soaps sound wonderful to me, especially the Caramel and the Sea Green.
I have three favorites right now:
1. Mudlark Savon d'Amande. Wonderful, long-lasting goat milk-almond-honey-oat bars. Bonus: They're packaged in an assortment of gorgeous papers.
2. Mistral Soaps. Haven't tried too many yet, but they are nice. Balinese Vanilla is a perfect fall lather.
3. North Shore Soap Factory soaps. I like a lot of them. Right now I have their Ylang-Ylang in my shower. The unscented kukui nut oil soap is another of my top faves - really nice on winter skin!
Vermont soap company makes a lovely honey soap with some exfoliating properties.
One of my very favorites is Crabtree & Evelyn's Jojoba soap, shaped like a seashell. It has a sweet fragrance and is very kind to the skin.
Otherwise, I just use whatever mainstream brand appeals to me in the grocery store - I like Dove, Caress, and I love Yardleys English Lavender in summer (this might be too drying for your sensitive skin), and I like the other Yardley soaps as well, Aloe and Oatmeal/Almond. Isn't great, opening a fresh bar of soap and having a nice lingering soap in the tub? One of the great simple pleasures of life.

Some excellent suggestions here--thanks all.
I agree: nothing takes the place of a nice sudsy bar of soap.

Roger & Gallet Carnation soap is a classic. Kind of like a bottle of fragrance, in the shower. Distinctive, crisply floral and just enough longevity to not overpower your SOTD. Highly recommended.

Last year I stayed at the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno, and they use Gilchrist & Soames toiletries. I opened one bar of soap to use in the bath, took a whiff, and put the rest (lotion, shower gel, facial bar, oatmeal soap, etc.) in my suitcase. The following day the maids replenished everything and all that went into the suitcase. And the next day.... Then it was time to check out and I raided the maid's cart just a little bit! The product info says this is "formulated exclusively for Grand Sierra Resort," but I smell rosemary and mint and suspect it's the same as their Wake-Up Rosemary line of products. I'm almost out, so I must soon either order their products directly or spend another long weekend in Reno!
Eddie: Sweetie, what are you drinking?
Patsy: Oh, this? Chanel No. 5.
-- Absolutely Fabulous
Just bought myself a few scented soaps from http://www.amazingsoaps.com/
The soaps look like slices of cake!
It's a men's product, but I LOVE Every Man Jack's citrus scrub soap. It's an all-natural product (I believe) & is only found @ Target stores. The scrub part isn't really abrasive, & the scent smells like orange soda only not as sweet. It's a great product & is fairly inexpensive @ 3 bars for $5.

"Wait...is David Bowie really God?" - Penelope Garcia
Fresh cosmetics has a 'gold' soap in a holiday box set at nieman's. it's really strong... kinda rosemary/clean. it's awesome.
I love a highly, aromatic, bar of soap with lush lather. Right now my favorite artisan etailer fits the bill exactly. Villainess: http://www.villainess.net/home.php. Really, good stuff!
Shea butter soap is excellent for dry, sensitive skin. I've had good luck with:
Pre de Provence
Also, there is a line I have seen in the natural food store called Pangea. The shower gel is extremely emollient, so is excellent for severe dryness (as in the middle of winter). The scents are great too, based on essential oil blends. I love the geranium bar soap, but it doesn't last nearly as long as a bar of Mistral.

I also love L'Occitane, particularly the Orange soap
Others I like are:
Jo Malone - LBM
Acqua di Parma - soaps and shower gels in Colonia or C. Assoluta (the latter is amazing in shower gel)
Last edited by runstile; 2nd December 2008 at 11:38 PM.
I love Mistral soaps and I haven't found them to linger too long. Particularly the one called "Green Fig" or "Green FIg and Orange Blossoms" (It's the exact same scent, not sure why they changed the name) It smells fantastic in the shower or bath but doesn't interfere with other fragrance. I also liked that these didn't melt too fast. (and no sulfates or parabens!)
Lush soaps and Be Never, from Be Never I really recommend cocktail soap if they have it. I got the limited edition when it was on with Lush and love it. Especially followed up with the cockail perfume. People always compliment me on it too which is nice
But once you get locked into a serious perfume collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can.
I love perfumed soaps, actually I only use perfumed soaps;
Chanel; Cristalle, No 5, Coco
Dior- Addict, Diorissimo
Roger & Gallet; Bouquet Imperial, Carnation, Magnolia, Jasmin (long discontinued), Almond Flower,
Stendhal-Symbiose (long, long, gone)
Caron- Boutique petit soaps
L'Occitane- Orange Blossom (were discontinued when I worked for them, so I purchased 90 bars from around the country)
YSL-Rive Gauche (long gone also)
Guerlain- Chamade (also discontinued)
and quite a few other. As you could all tell I tend to stock up on things I love, in preparation of the day they will be discontinued.
Quand on boit l'eau, il faut penser à sa source
I would also add the Antony Logistics citrus soap bar (Sephora or Ulta, $8) - it's a man's line too, but can easily appeal to a girl, it's a fresh invigorating blast of orange and natural ingredients too.
I'm a fan of Perlier honey soap
I love Perlier soaps, too.
And I also love Fleurissimo soap. Very well scented, gentle on skin, long lasting.
I love the Maja bar soap. In fact I just bought in a couple of bars for a gal at the office and she loves them.
Also, I think they are meant to be masculine, but I love the scents of the Herban Cowboy bar soap - think I tried the Orginal and Bluegrass, both so good.
Seconding the Yardley's English Lavender.
Bee & Flower Sandalwood smells wonderful and it's cheap, but drying.
If anybody is interested it seems that Homesense (think TJ Maxx Home or Marshall's Home) is selling Roger & Gallet soaps at a tremendous discount right now. Not only the boxes containing several soaps, but the "pucks".
I'm willing to pick any of these up for folks interested and ship them out. R&G has been a favorite of mine for a long time, though I think I prefer Crabtree & Evelyn "Nomad". It seems to be of higher quality and the lather is much nicer.
R&G discontinued their "bars", which has turned me off the line. They are a division of YSL Beauty and I have a feeling they wanted to make R&G a bit more exclusive, fancy and limit their soaps to higher-end boutiques.
I love the soaps Dorothy makes at Kingsbury Fragrances. http://www.kingsburyfragrances.com/
The Chanel soaps I've used have been fantastic, #5 & Coco. I have a Guerlain chamade soap but as I can't replace it, I have not used it. I've used Villainess soaps & enjoyed them very much. I especially enjoy her Smooch! product.
SAVON makes an excellent ginger & orange blossom soap.
I also have a lot of Curly Willow Soap from Soap Sisters...fantastic stull! http://soapsistersonline.com/ they are just down the street from my sister & we first discovered them when they opened a few years ago. We've been loyal customers ever since.
I love scented soap!

"You smell like sunshine and happiness."
Mount Harmony Herbal soaps are fabulous! Used to buy them from my friends neighbor in Virginia but now I have to order them on line. mountharmony.com ( no affiliation)
I have tried many, many brandsof soaps, almost as many as I have tried perfumes; and the best ones I have ever used, smelled etc are the CLAUS PORTO soaps. They have a huge range, very varied and using the best perfume
Does the simple Camay Classic count?
If yes, this is my favorite.
Runner-up: soap bars belonging to the Joop Le Bain range.
The Crabtree & Evelyn "Nomad" line is unbelievable - a real treat, but not cheap ($26 for 3 bars). There's the fragrance itself, which isn't all that spectacular, but the quality of the soap and the lather is really top of the line.
R&G is my second choice - I just wish, again, that they didn't discontinue the bars.
Yesterday I picked up a few bars of Woods of Windsor Fine English Soap for Men. Terrific stuff. I should have grabbed the cologne, too.

Finding Similarities Between Options and Life
Enjoy the Benefits of Commercial Real Estate Through Through the Triple Net Lease Investment
Maximizing occupancy, taking care of expenses, and seeing to all the problems of property ownership are only some of the common landlord issues that real estate investors have been so involved with. Triple net lease investments reduces the work load and risks correlated with these concerns and makes the task simpler for the landlord.
There are plenty of lease options on hand that are available to use in the market today. As with financing, investors likewise have to use their imagination occasionally, so as to take full advantage of their investments or even bring about a deal.
On top of t he familiar sort of lease you might be aware of such as leasing a vehicle, a house, or an apartment, other types of leases are available in the commercial real estate industry and a lot more advantageous for an investor; these are the net leases.
There are leases such as the triple net (NNN, double net (NN), and single net (N) where the tenant, and not the landlord, has to take care of some or even all of the maintenance expenses. Under such leases, the tenant is duty-bound to pay property taxes along with the rent.
A single net lease makes sure that the renter spend for the real estate taxes besides their rent. Double net leases pass to the tenant the burden of paying the taxes as well with insurance on top of the rent. Such magical present granted by the lease fairy makes tenants pay for rents, taxes, insurance, as well maintenance. Thus, the investor is able to break free of all the costs that are usually associated with property ownership when this agreement is in motion.
There are tenants who may not be agreeable to the tripe net lease investment. Most of them speak of the difficulty they might encounter in terms of calculating or predicting their costs if such an agreement is enforced. Such as their costs might become a lot bigger one month if they are in charge of the maintenance and repairs. Contrary to regular leases where tenants will know their fixed rental amount they have to pay at all times, the triple net lease exposes them to costs that are inconsistent and which they are unlikely able to calculate. On the other hand, the triple net lease is not only beneficial to the investor.
A tenant under this type of lease will have the benefit of fixed rents that are lower. This type of situation works well in the tenants favor in some new building. In a recently constructed building, they will be able to benefit from the cheaper rent plus the diminished fees for repair and maintenance, being that the building is new.
Of course, a triple net lease functions best for investors like you. It liberates you from the various expenses that generally have to be taken out of your income. Other than these, investors are likewise able to break free from the worries of covering these expenses, paying the fees, etc.

If you've heard that Conor McGregor is the best trash-talker in MMA, you heard wrong. That honor belongs to strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk.
As Joanna "Champion" readies to defend her title this Saturday against Karolina Kowalkiewicz at UFC 205, we bring you our five favorite examples of the brash warrior's psychological warfare. Read on for our ranked top J-Disses, and then let us know your favorite moments from the Polish champ in the comments section!
5. Putting Maryna Moroz in her place
In April of 2015, Ukranian prospect Maryna Moroz made a stunning UFC debut in Jedrzejczyk's native Poland, winning by arm bar submission. Afterwards, she found the champ in the audience and called her out.
By August, Moroz suffered her first career loss, to Valerie Letourneau. In November, Jedrzejczyk in turn faced and defeated Letourneau in Australia.
Afterwards, she took the time to make sure the world made the proper connections and understood just how far away Moroz was from her with a post on Instagram, showing her knocking Letourneau down with a punch.
Joanna "Champion" accompanied the photo with this written message to Moroz: "If you talk the talk you better be ready to walk the walk!! All the best to U in the future."
4. Talking trash to Claudia Gadelha's coach on TUF
While coaching a season of The Ultimate Fighter opposite number one strawweight contender, Claudia Gadelha, Joanna tried many times to intimidate her challenger. The two were getting set to meet again in July of 2016 after fighting to a razor-close split decision in 2014 which Jedrzejczyk won.
Gadelha got more than her share of calm, clever and confident retorts during the season, and showed that she wasn't intimidated at all when she pushed Joanna through five brutal rounds in their rematch. Still, Joanna's sublime bullying was on full display, especially when she walked up to Claudia's boxing coach (who Gadelha said didn't understand or speak any English), wearing her title belt and began taunting him at the TUF gym.
"You're gonna cry," she said, as you can see and hear in the above video.
"Look at this - it's your last time. You want this so badly, huh?"
We're not condoning bullying, but goodness gracious, it takes something for a 115lb woman to walk up to a male professional fighter and challenge him.
3. Penne pasta
Joanna often uses props to make her point, like when she hands condescending gifts to opponents after weigh-ins. Before fighting Jessica Penne in June of 2015 in her first title-defense, Joanna posted a photo on social media that meant to serve as pun prophecy.
The message to the image of Joanna angrily chomping down on a serving of penne pasta was clear - I will chew you up, swallow you down, digest you and then...ok, we may have lost the point in literal translation here, but you get the symbolism.
2. Meta-reflection trash talk
After upsetting Carla Esparza with a second-round KO in 2015 at UFC 185 to become world champion, Joanna told The MMA Hour's Ariel Helwani that she believes her pre-fight trash talk had "broken" Esparza before they ever stepped into the cage together. "I think I break her," she said.
"She didn't know what to expect. Maybe she thought that I am crazy. I am really nice. But not in the cage."
With that, Joanna had actually managed to use armchair psychological analysis of previous trash to create new trash talk.
1. "Why you smiling?"
Above is the trash talk that Joanna believes mentally broke then-champion Carla Esparza. Before their UFC 185 showdown, the two appeared at a press conference and squared up and posed side-by-side for photographers. Esparza, then the number one strawweight in the world, posed seemingly innocuously with one finger in the air and her title-belt over a shoulder.
Seeing this, Joanna appeared to lose it. "Don't do this," she turned and told Esparza, stone-faced.
Joanna considered holding one finger up in the air, her move, dammit, and seemed genuinely pissed-off that Esparza deigned to do the same thing. It's that type of obsessively competitive pettiness that often typifies champions, like Joanna was about to become.
"You cannot do this, you know?"
Esparza was speechless. As she walked off the stage, afterwards, smiling, Joanna continued to badger her, offended. "Why you smiling," she asked, as can be seen in the video, around the 2:35 mark.
"I am going to take this on Saturday, so keep on smiling."
It is important to remember that, at this point, most of the MMA world didn't give Joanna much of a chance to beat Esparza. Esparza's dominant grappling seemed like a tough match-up for Joanna's striking.
Joanna believed in herself, however, and turned out one of the most one-sided MMA title fights in history. And, to this day, she's still the champion she knew she would become that day.

Improving Productivity in An ASC Setting
The CONSTELLATION® Vision System gives surgeons more control. Considering the challenges of owning an ASC, this system also delivers profitability.
By Pravin U. Dugel, MD, Phoenix, Ariz., and Sunil Gupta, MD, Pensacola, Fla.
Being an owner of an ambulatory surgery center (ASC) adds a whole new dimension to being a retina specialist. On the one hand, operating in a facility that is dedicated to eyes allows a level of specialization not often possible in a hospital setting. On the other hand, however, we are responsible not only for achieving excellent outcomes and providing exceptional care, but also for doing so profitably. The cost of capital equipment, for example, literally comes out of our pockets. This is not to say that hospitals do not have to watch their bottom lines, but with more specialties under one roof in a hospital, there is some latitude on the overall balance sheet.
As ASC owners, we are responsible for the success of our businesses, but we also have more control over our workplace: how we operate, when we operate and the equipment we use. Although achieving the best possible outcomes while keeping patients safe and comfortable are top priorities, efficiency is an underlying goal. When we are efficient, our surgeries are performed in a timely manner, our patients are seen in a timely manner, and we get to go home in a timely manner.
As retina surgeons, however, we cannot equate efficiency with speed. For us, efficiency is defined, first and foremost, as improved patient outcomes and second as increased profitability. It is essential to keep our priorities in this order at all times and in all decision-making processes. As our technology evolves, it contributes to our efficiency in what are still subjective and surgeon-dependent procedures by automating some tasks and giving us more control over others.
The CONSTELLATION® Vision System (Alcon Laboratories; Fort Worth, Texas) is an example of advanced technology designed to enable us to achieve good outcomes with excellent efficiency. As members of Alcon's retina advisory committee, we had the opportunity to test-drive the system and provide feedback during its development. We and the other committee members explained what we needed to do in the eye and what we needed to have happen in the OR and even outside the OR to ensure the best surgical outcomes possible. In other words, we were asking for a user-friendly, surgeon-driven vision system, not just a box.
In this article, we describe some of the key features of the new CONSTELLATION® Vision System and their impact on our surgeries.
Note the lack of clutter in this OR where the CONSTELLATION® Vision System is prepped for a patient. This reduces turnover time between cases and increases efficiency. The built-in laser reduces crowding at the head of the bed.
Inside the eye
One of the features surgeons discussed frequently when the CONSTELLATION® Vision System was introduced was its ultra-high cutting rate of 5000 cuts per minute (cpm). We have found that the ULTRAVIT® High Speed Vitrectomy Probe is an efficient cutter, in that it actually does perform at that level, not only for 20g surgery, but for 23g and 25g surgery, as well. That is a critical feature in terms of reducing the risk to the patient. The ultrahigh speed minimizes traction and significantly reduces the risk of tearing the retina.
No less important when performing vitreoretinal surgery is maintaining fluidic stability, and the CONSTELLATION® Vision System addresses this elegantly.
When you are working inside the eye, you want your fluidics to be as surgeon-controlled as possible. With previous-generation vitrectomy machines, surgeons could control only two parameters: cut rate and vacuum. With the CONSTELLATION® Vision System, we now can control a third parameter, duty cycle, which is the percentage of time the cutter remains open in a given cut cycle, independent of vacuum and cutting rate. This technology combined with IOP control is second to none in allowing for fluidic stability.
Depending on our surgical goal, we can choose one of three duty cycles: port-biased open, portbiased closed or 50/50. Using the port-biased open setting, for example, we can remove core vitreous significantly faster than we could in the past because of duty cycle control achievable at an ultra-high cut rate. This means we can have both safety and speed. By shortening the time we are in the eye, we create a better experience for the patient. The eye is quieter and recovers faster. Using the port-biased closed setting, we can shave peripheral vitreous on the retinal surface with a significantly higher margin of safety. This minimizes the potential for a retinal break or hole when dissecting at the vitreous base.
The key to allowing duty cycle control is the novel vitreous cutter design of the ULTRAVIT® probe. Spring-driven cutters are limited by the spring constant and venting time of the system. As the cutter speed increases, the venting time decreases and the probe remains in a closed position longer (decreased duty cycle), decreasing the flow rate at ultra-high cut rates.
The ULTRAVIT® cutter has a dual pneumatic drive, whereby one air line is dedicated to opening the cutter and one is dedicated to closing the cutter. There is no spring in the ULTRAVIT® probe, enabling us, for the first time, to control duty cycle.
While duty cycle controls how fluid exits the eye, another new feature of the CONSTELLATION® Vision System — integrated pressurized infusion with IOP Compensation — controls how fluid enters the eye, again contributing to fluidic stability.
According to the 2008 Preferences and Trends survey by the American Society of Retina Specialists, many surgeons (45%) set their infusion pressures in the 31mm Hg to 40mm Hg range (© Mittra RA, Pollack JS: ASRS Preferences & Trends Survey 2008), pressures that are higher than we would think are healthy for the eye.
Dr. Gupta prepares for his next patient. Note that all aspects of the machine and instruments are accessible by the surgeon and by the assistant, maximizing efficiency in the OR.
The IOP Compensation component of the CONSTELLATION® Vision System constantly monitors infusion pressure and adjusts for external factors, such as the pressure in the air above the BSS® Sterile Irrigating Solution (Alcon Laboratories; Fort Worth, Texas) and the pressure drop across the 84 inches of infusion line at any given moment. For the first time, we know actual intraocular pressures as opposed to estimated IOPs. This is possible because the system solves Ohm's law (pressure = flow x resistance) by directly measuring flow and resistance through the infusion line and cannula, using internal, noninvasive flow sensors. Being able to maintain IOPs at set levels throughout surgery is another important feature of the CONSTELLATION® Vision System.
Proper Staff Assignment for Better Patient Care and ROIStaffing can account for as much as 70% of an ASC's overhead. So it should come as no surprise that efficiency and profitability in an ASC depend upon proper staffing. If we can manage staffing properly, not only will we do things more efficiently, but we will do things more profitably. Simply put, if we allow our nurses to do nursing tasks and our techs to do tech tasks, everybody will be better off. Patients will benefit, and the ASC will be more profitable. This is not a matter of firing or hiring people. The key is proper task assignment to match a person's skill set. The CONSTELLATION® Vision System allows us to do that.
For example, having a nurse stand next to a laser, waiting to be instructed to increase or decrease the power is not efficient use of the nurse's skills. In fact, no one should have to stand next to a laser, waiting for a surgeon to tell him to turn a knob this way or that way. It makes much more sense to have the surgeon control laser power with a foot pedal. That frees the nurse to handle proper nursing tasks, to take better care of our patients and make our patients happier and safer.
OR setup and turnover
From a practice management standpoint, OR setup and turnover are critical factors that ultimately affect the reproducibility of surgery for doctors and patients. Surgeons want to enter the OR confident that everything will function as expected. What's more, consistency will ensure the best outcomes for patients.
The V-LOCITY® Efficiency Components of the CONSTELLATION® Vision System automate certain tasks and add a measure of confidence with ENGAUGE® RFID (radio frequency identification device). This feature minimizes the potential for errors during OR setup and turnover and allows for more efficient use of nurses and scrub techs. (See "Proper Staff Assignment for Better Patient Care and ROI.")
Whenever we can lessen variability in our instrumentation, we reduce stress on the surgeon and avoid a negative experience for the patient. For example, with the CONSTELLATION® Vision System, the pack is scanned, and the machine automatically recognizes the selected gauge, then normalizes the output and illuminates the receptacles where connections are to be made. If a probe is placed incorrectly, the machine recognizes the error and an orange light appears.
Turnover is faster because the machine can be primed with the push of a button, and the articulating tray arm moves around the machine to any position necessary with one hand, which optimizes setup and transfer to the patient. Thanks to these features combined with the improved surgeon-control options, many tasks that we had to do with the help of a circulator nurse can be done by the scrub tech independently or by the surgeon using the foot pedal.
Auto gas fill
Another task that has been streamlined in the CONSTELLATION® Vision System is gas-air exchange. This task used to require an experienced scrub tech and an experienced circulator nurse who would do a careful dance, avoiding contamination and calculating the proper gas dilution. The auto gas fill feature in the CONSTELLATION® Vision System makes this previously stressful and potentially dangerous task safer and easier.
The auto gas fill begins with a specifically designed syringe. The machine will purge and fill the syringe with undiluted C3F8/SF6 gas automatically. This task can now be performed in a sterile environment by the scrub tech alone.
Dr. Gupta performs surgery mostly utilizing the foot pedal of the CONSTELLATION® Vision System. The surgeon-controlled features of the system enhance efficiency and safety.
At the touch of a toe
Although it may look the same as it did in the previous-generation machine, the foot pedal on the CONSTELLATION® Vision System is now a more powerful and versatile link between surgeon and machine, allowing us to control several functions.
You can use the foot control to quickly toggle from air to fluid and back again. You also can use it to adjust IOP. For example, if you have a spot that is bleeding in a retina that you just peeled, you can quickly raise the IOP with a click on the upper right side of the foot pedal.
This surgeon-based control system streamlines your surgery, allowing you to make adjustments on the fly, rather than waiting for a nurse to do them for you.
Twin Dual Port Light SystemThe CONSTELLATION® Vision System's dual xenon light source was engineered to remain more consistent with significantly less degradation over the first 200 hours of use. The twin dual port design is helpful when you want to use multiple probes for focused or diffuse lighting.
Another nice feature is the ENGAUGE® RFID probe technology. The RFID tag recognizes gauge size and probe type, then adjusts light intensity for that specific probe type to a preset default level of 8 to 10 lumens at the tip.
User-friendly laser features
The laser is a modular design built into the console with dual output ports to accommodate the endoprobe and the indirect laser without needing to switch. Several straight and directional probes are currently available, and others are in the design stage. The indirect delivery system is comfortably balanced and lighter in weight than previous systems. The controls are operated via touch screen and integrated into the CONSTELLATION® screen. Power settings can be changed and ready/standby controlled from the laser foot switch.
Mastering Inventory Management: A Look at the FutureAs vitreoretinal surgical techniques have become more sophisticated, inventory management has become more challenging, whether we operate in an ambulatory surgery center or a hospital. A wide array of choices — from gauge to lasers and light probes — means that we must be more vigilant. Having too much inventory for too long can be almost as objectionable as running out of supplies.
Previous-generation machines have been "boxes" that allowed us to operate well inside the eye. Now, for the first time, we have a system that also improves efficiency inside and outside the OR. The CONSTELLATION® Vision System with ENGAUGE® RFID technology provides end-of-case metrics at the push of a button. This feature has utility today to help us manage our inventory, and it has great potential for e-connectivity and electronic communication in the future.
Simply put, the system knows what you use for each case. This information could be transmitted to a third party or directly to the manufacturer to provide just-in-time delivery. This would be an enormous advantage in the field and a great cost savings: Surgical disposables delivered promptly.
As the CONSTELLATION® Vision System evolves, not only will safety be enhanced, as we discussed previously, but also efficiency. This translates to our original definition of efficiency: To provide the best possible outcomes while maximizing profitability. This is another example of how the CONSTELLATION® Vision System has been designed with the needs of the patient, the surgeon and the facility in mind, whether that facility is an ASC or a hospital.
Universal goals
As surgeons, we need to be careful to not equate efficiency with speed. Although being able to accomplish certain tasks faster does improve efficiency, the first rule of efficiency is safety. As ASC owners, we must also consider return on investment and profitability. Are safety and profitability compatible? We believe they are. The CONSTELLATION® Vision System provides a great deal of safety and a great deal of efficiency in time and personnel saved. For us, it has been a wise investment.
You can improve patient care and be profitable at the same time. And what entity that delivers health care would not want to be more efficient, provide better patient care and be more profitable? These are universal goals, whether you are a retina surgeon or an orthopedic surgeon, and whether you practice in an ASC or in a hospital.

USA Basketball signs 7 sponsors through '12 Games
Published August 2, 2010
USA Basketball has signed seven sponsors as the men's national team gears up to play in the World Championships in Turkey later this month.
Partners are Nike; Gatorade; State Farm Insurance; Tiffany & Co.; JA Apparel Corp., owners of Joseph Abboud brand; Milk Processor Education Program, better known for its national "got milk?" campaign; and Las Vegas Events.
Each of the deals runs through the 2012 London Olympics. Financial terms were not disclosed.
The NBA is responsible for marketing USA Basketball.
State Farm, Gatorade, Nike and Las Vegas Events were USA Basketball sponsors during the 2008 Beijing Olympics, while Gatorade, Nike and State Farm are also full NBA league marketing partners.
USA Basketball is working to become a more visible property throughout non-Olympic years under the leadership of Jerry Colangelo, who chairs USA Basketball and was responsible for the overhaul of the men's national team that was heavily criticized after taking the bronze medal at the 2004 Athens Olympics.
"What is taking shape now is that we really are a brand with a year-round, ongoing structure," Colangelo said. "One of the things I am very much behind is including more involvement and access. That is what sponsors want."
To add value and opportunities for its sponsors, USA Basketball created a festival to be held this year in New York from Aug. 12-15 leading up to the FIBA World Championships set for Aug. 28-Sept. 12 in Turkey. Next summer, USA Basketball's men's team will play in the FIBA games in Argentina, followed by the 2012 Olympics in London.
Other sponsor activation includes the creation of the Global Community Cup, which includes all USA Basketball games played outside of internationally sanctioned competition.
"We have asked for a long-term commitment so we will have around 12 to 14 partners by 2012," said Chris Heck, NBA senior vice president of marketing partnerships, who manages the business for USA Basketball.

Episode Summary: Bunji is missing following his defeat at the hands of Grave and is later shown to be drinking heavily and a vagrant. Widge and Gary, who are now old men no longer with the syndicate, get a visit from Grave and Mika. Mika explains to them what happened to Brandon and Gary accidentally lets slip that Big Daddy was killed. Meanwhile Dr. Tokioka acquires information on everything to do with the Necro-Rises and Superiors, including their weaknesses. Grave leaves Mika in the protective care of Widge and Gary and drives to a roadblock where he is attacked by orcmen. Balladbird Lee deduces that since Grave is alone with a car he must be getting help from more people and tracks down Widge and Gary. Widge explains to Mika the history of Big Daddy and the circumstances of Brandon's death and they are interrupted by Lee making an entrance. Using his Superior powers, Widge and Gary are violently cut apart and Mika is taken. When Grave returns to their house he is devastated to see the fate of his old friends. Finally Bunji turns up at Laguna Glock's lab and offers his body to be upgraded.

Available later this year:Smartphone 2003 (powered by WinCE 4.2) has .NET Compact Framework shipping in ROM; Bluetooth; and support for a built-in camera.
Many familiar Win32 APIs reused: Winsock, TAPI etc.Desktop and PocketPC apps can run on the Smartphone with modificationsApps written for GSM networks may be re-run on CDMA networks
Very similar to building apps on Win32 or WinCE except that .NET (Compact) Framework functionality is missing. Since a SOAP Toolkit is unavailable, the following classes need to be built:
Example architecture of a Map Mobile Web services
Europe Handheld 1Q 2003 Mkt:
PDA (WinCE): 320 K
Smartphone (Win CE): 60 K
"Smartphones" (all**): 860 K
Palm: 285 K
Operators and countries*:
Europe Handheld 2003 Mkt Est.
PDAs: 2.8million
Symbian/Smartphone: 3.3 million
*the list of operators is possibly incomplete
**this category includes Symbian handhelds
Short to mid term:
Mid to long term:
Widely varying analyst predictions over the next few years:from leadership to annihilation!
Cross-functional value of integrating functionality is significant.Market for PDAs is stagnant, but for telephony-enabled smartphones is rising!
These fundamental limitations bound what will be possible in the future on handhelds
*See the W3C Multimodal Interaction Working Group for efforts to standardize such interfaces. Also see Kirusa's website for demonstrations of multimodal interfaces on various handhelds.
Unlike a computer, you "wear" your handheld all the time. It is a personal statement of who you are. Its look and feel are therefore very critical.
Some aspects are:
Moore's law and the maturation of existing and future scientific discoveries & inventions will substantially improve the handheld's capabilities with respect to:
Coupling of hardware-centric functional modules
Fused into the handheld (e.g., Camera-phones)
Expansion slots (e.g., CF slots)
Personal Area Network (e.g., Bluetooth). See IXI's PMG.
Promiscuous binding with surrounding capabilities (Project Oxygen)
How will these architectures evolve?
Location of Computation
Embedded (computed locally in the handheld). Can operate in disconnected mode. Limited by CPU, memory, battery power.
Network (computed in network). More compute resources but limited by connectivity, bandwidth & latency.
Distributed. Part-embedded, part-network based. (e.g., Distributed Speech recognition)
How will these architectures evolve?Emerging Architectures

One of the top players in New Jersey is also one of the top running backs in the Northeast. Andre Callender of West Orange (N.J.) Seton Hall Prep has two of his five official visits set up, but had to change one of the dates.
"I had to change my visit with Boston College from Dec. 6 to Jan. 17 because I'm taking the ACT that weekend," said the 5-foot-10, 185-pound tailback. "I'm still going to Wake Forest on Dec. 13."
Expect Andre to also set visit dates with North Carolina, Clemson and Michigan State.

Design Process Management
Bid Process and Analysis
Construction Project Management
CFA Institute, the organization governing the Chartered Financial Analysts, engaged JM Zell to assist with acquisition of its new Global Operations Center in Charlottesville, VA.
CFA entered into an agreement to purchase a portion of the historic Martha Jefferson Hospital in downtown Charlottesville, VA on a "turn-key" basis after the developer had finished construction of the facility. JM Zell advised CFA on the acquisition of the property, oversaw negotiations with the developer, and supported selection of a design team.
Midway through the design process, CFA decided to purchase the facility outright and took over development with JM Zell stepping in as development advisor. JM Zell negotiated the transaction and procured project financing on behalf of CFA.
With the advice of JM Zell and other experts, CFA structured the transaction so it could apply for and receive Historic Tax Credits. JM Zell ensured that the design team adhered to the Secretary of the Interior's Standard for Historic Rehabilitation and Local Board of Architectural Review, Virginia Department of Historic Resources and National Park Service approval. JM Zell also negotiated with an investor to syndicate the Historic Tax Credits.
JM Zell issued a request for proposal to pre-qualified general contractors, advised CFA on selection, and negotiated contracts. As owner representative, we assured build out to specifications and adherence to budget and schedule.
CFA's adaptive reuse of the building involved significant challenges including fireproofing, electrical and HVAC issues, incorporating a monumental connecting stair, window replacement and even saving a massive historic tree. The conversion incorporated green demolition/recycling practices as part of securing LEED certification.
JM Zell also orchestrated the alignment of dependent activities with the simultaneous third-party renovation of the adjacent buildings to ensure that neither interfered with the other's construction.
JM Zell worked closely with CFA to align the project schedule with its three expiring leases for consolidation of its 450-person staff.
The original hospital facilities were successfully converted to 143,000 square feet of modern, sustainable office space. The $33 million project was completed on budget and within the 14- month schedule limitation. The project achieved LEED Gold certification with a design that also reflects the CFA's values of transparency and ethical behavior.

Hi everyone...I'm from the colorectal board but wanted to check on here maybe for some info. My longtime friends son who is in his 20's was just diagnosed with osteo sarcoma in his knee. Dr's say replace knee cap and use a proceedure to "vacuum" out the joint as long as its not spread. Otherwise they will amputate from above the knee. The son, Justin is saying he doesn't want to fight this or go on and is very down and depressed about it. And I know how we all pretty much felt in the beginning of our diagnosis with the initial shock. I'm hoping someone here has some good information or resource or words I can pass along to them.
Thank you so very much, Gail

Scotland. Glen Affric, also written Glenaffric, was part of the lands of the Clan Chisholm and the Clan Fraser of Lovat from the 15th to the mid 19th centuries. By the early 15th century, Lord Lovat had passed the lands to his son Thomas who in turn passed it on to his son, William Fraser, first Laird of Guisachan. The lands included regions that would become the Glen Affric deer park and the Guisachan Estate, including the village of Tomich. In 1579, Thomas Chisholm, Laird of Strathglass, was imprisoned for being a Catholic. The Battle of Glen Affric took place in 1721.

Unanswered: Retrieve folder contents from FTP server
Good day,
I am trying to find a way to retrieve the contents of a folder, the names of the files in the folder, from an ftp server.
I have a username, password and ftp address boces on the screen and when the user enters in the valid information I would like to display all the files that are in this location to them.
I know one can do this manually and check for themselves but want to just display the file list to the user this way.
Can anyone help please?
