Clubfoot Program
What is Clubfoot?
Clubfoot is a condition that causes the lower leg, ankle and foot to be turned inward and pointed down. The deformity occurs during early development of the fetus and is present at birth. It affects 1-2 children for every 1000 live births. Clubfoot can run in families. The cause is multifactorial, including genetic, though the responsible gene(s) has not yet been found. Other names for idiopathic clubfoot include congenital clubfoot and Talipes Equinovarus.
The deformity can occur in one or both feet and is twice as common in boys as it is in girls. Because the muscles, tendons and bones have been growing in an abnormal position, the foot is often quite rigid and requires several stages of treatment.
The standard of care treatment globally, and our practice in the SickKids Clubfoot Clinic, is the Ponseti Method of casting, a minor surgical procedure and bracing. Ideally, treatment should begin in the weeks soon after birth, after you and your baby are comfortably settled at home.
Broadly, there are three stages:
1) Weekly Ponseti stretching and casting of the foot and leg
2) A minor surgical procedure to the Achilles tendon
3) Bracing to hold the corrected position
Visit our Clubfoot Clinic page for more information about location, registration, appointments and more.
Stages of treatment
Stage 1: Casting
The first part of treatment involves a specific series of gentle stretching and casting of the affected foot/feet to gradually correct the alignment. This is often referred to as manipulation and casting. The treatment is performed by a physical therapist or orthopaedic surgeon trained in the Ponseti Method.
Casting ideally starts within 4 weeks of birth and repeated every 1-2 weeks, for an average of
4-7 weeks. The number of casts can depend on the stiffness of the foot, age of the infant or child, and skin condition and response to casting.
The stretching and casts do not hurt the baby as they are done gently. Each infant will respond differently to the casting, but as the babies get used to their casts they may be a little fussy for 1-2 days after casting.
View our parent information sheet for Cast Care.
Stage 2: Achilles Tendon Tenotomy (Release)
The casting corrects the foot alignment, but in the majority of infants the Achilles tendon (where the calf muscle attaches to the heel) is too strong and prevents full upward motion of ankle. As the Achilles tendon is very tight, it is recommended to surgically release/cut it, rather than continuing to put force on the foot with casting. Over 90% of babies will require this.
The procedure is done by the orthopaedic surgeon in the clinic under local anaesthetic. It involves a very small incision at the back of the ankle, and does not require stitches. Babies are very comfortable after the procedure and do not need pain medicine. After the tendon is released, the foot will be casted in the fully corrected position for 3 weeks. Infants over 6 months of age typically require the procedure in the operating room under general anaesthetic.
Stage 3: Bracing
When the infant's foot is fully corrected, he or she will need to wear a brace to maintain its good position. The bracing phase is essential for preventing the deformity from returning and success is dependent on the parents developing a good routine for brace wear!
The brace is called Boots and Bar (B&B). Learn more about maintenance using a B&B brace, on AboutKidsHealth.ca. It includes 2 boots attached to a bar that holds the feet shoulder-width apart and turned outward, away from the body. This position is natural and comfortable for the baby and prevents the previously tight muscles from pulling the foot back in a downward and inward position. There are several versions of this brace available on the market and your physical therapist and surgeon will discuss the options available to you and approximate costs.
Your child will need to wear these 23 hours at a time for the first 3 months. If the foot shape remains well corrected, brace wear is then decreased to nighttime only aiming for 12-15 hours. The casting, tenotomy, and full-time bracing stages are typically completed within 6 months. The child will continue to wear the brace at nighttime only until 4-5 years of age. Bracing is necessary for all patients and is essential to prevent relapse of the deformity. Most children will not require any special footwear or bracing for daily function.
The majority of infants with idiopathic clubfoot will experience normal developmental milestones during and following treatment. The average child with idiopathic clubfoot walks by 18 months of age. This is within the normal time frame for all healthy children.
Response to Treatment
The Ponseti Method is considered the most effective treatment of idiopathic clubfoot. As each clubfoot is unique, so will be its response to each phase of treatment. Some clubfeet are more flexible yet others are more rigid, requiring more casts than initially predicted or possibly recasting during later phases of treatment. A small percentage of children may require surgery at some stage in the child's treatment if the foot is not correcting well with casting.
Attending all appointments and commitment to keeping casts and braces on as prescribed are important to achieve and maintain correction of the foot deformity.
Regardless of the severity of the clubfoot, the goal and result of treatment is to achieve a functional and painless foot with good alignment. The affected clubfoot is typically a little smaller than the normal foot and the calf muscle may develop slightly smaller. The affected leg may also be slightly shorter and may toe-in slightly. If both feet are involved, they are usually symmetric. None of these differences will cause pain or affect the child's growth or function. Your child should be able to walk and run normally and to participate in most physical activities.

Singer Mariah Carey and Australian billionaire James Packer have reportedly called off their engagement.
Packer is said to have been the one who dropped the ax on the relationship, with his reason being "her new reality TV show and extravagant spending".
Packer wasn't prepared to have his entire life on a reality TV show, and allowed her to keep the $10-million ring he bought for their engagement.
"It's all over," one close family friend told Woman's Day. "James had huge reservations about Mariah's new reality TV show and the fact that she was willing to expose their lives to the world."
There are also reports of tension between the award winning singer and the casino mogul's family, claiming Packer's mum didn't like her.

Burlington Northern Railroad Company v. Ford
RESPONDENT: Ford et al.
LOCATION: Etowah County Commission
DECIDED BY: Rehnquist Court (1991-1993)
LOWER COURT: Montana Supreme Court
ARGUED: Apr 20, 1992
DECIDED: Jun 12, 1992
Betty Jo Christian - on behalf of the Petitioner
Joel I. Klein - on behalf of the Respondent
Facts of the case
Media for Burlington Northern Railroad Company v. FordAudio Transcription for Oral Argument - April 20, 1992 in Burlington Northern Railroad Company v. Ford
Audio Transcription for Opinion Announcement - June 12, 1992 in Burlington Northern Railroad Company v. Ford
William H. Rehnquist:
The opinion of the Court in No. 91-779, Burlington Northern Railroad Company versus Ford will be announced by Justice Souter.
David H. Souter:
This case comes to us on writ of certiorari to the Supreme Court of Montana.
Respondents are railroad workers who sued their employer, the petitioner here, in Trial Court for Yellowstone County, Montana.
The petitioner, Burlington, a company incorporated in Delaware with headquarters in Texas, moved for a change of venue to the Trial Court of Hill County, Montana saying that it had its principal place of business in Montana in that county.
The Trial Court denied the motion and the Supreme Court of Montana affirmed.
Under Montana's venue rules, a company incorporated in Montana may be sued only in the county where it has its principal place of business.
The company incorporated elsewhere, on the other hand, may be sued in any of Montana's 56 counties.
Burlington says that this discrimination violates the Equal Protection Clause.
In a unanimous opinion filed with the Clerk today, we affirm the judgment of the Supreme Court of Montana and hold that the Montana rules are constitutional because they rationally further a legitimate state purpose.
Montana could have assumed that a company's headquarters are a greater importance to its convenience in litigation than a company's other offices.
That companies incorporated in Montana likely have headquarters in Montana and that companies incorporated elsewhere likely do no have headquarters in Montana.
On these assumptions, Montana could reasonably decide that only the convenience to a corporate defendant of litigating where its headquarters are is sufficient to outweigh a plaintiff's interest in suing in the county of his choice.
Burlington has failed to show that the assumption that corporate defendants incorporated outside of Montana are unlikely to have their headquarters in Montana is irrational.
Besides, Burlington has its headquarters in Texas and is, therefore, in no position to complain.

About this Event
Drinking unusual beer, riding in cable cars and ridding oneself of dangerous levels of radioactive elements–three things that are absolutely wonderful. (Well, if you hate the taste of beer and think cable cars are overrated, at least we can agree on the third one!) So, pause your binge-watching of Chernobyl and come learn with us, drink up, get some reading recs from the SFPL, snarf gooey grilled cheese from the GCG, and listen to vinyl tunes from DJAB. Be there and be square!
"Radioactive and Heavy Metals – The Good, the Bad, or the Ugly?" by Rebecca Abergel
Exposure to heavily radioactive elements after a nuclear accident is a terrifying thought. But radioactive elements – including some that were created and added to the periodic table by scientists here in the Bay Area – can be used in beneficial medical treatments that work like "nuclear bullets" to target diseased tissue and cancer cells. We've also developed chemical tools to remove unwanted radioactive contaminants from our bodies and our environment.
Learn about these from Rebecca, an Assistant Professor of Nuclear Engineering at UC Berkeley and Heavy Element Chemistry Group Leader at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Her research focuses on investigating the fundamental coordination chemistry and biochemistry of heavy and f-elements.
"Pale Lager: How Innovation and Politics Enabled Its Domination, and How They Will Lead to Its Fall" by Daniel Gadala-Maria
In the last century, American beer has been dominated by pale lager and often been likened to sex in a canoe...fucking close to water. Yet pale lagers also dominate globally: 92% of all beer fits into this narrow category. Beer has existed since prehistory, but pale lagers are younger than the U.S.A. So how the hell did we get here??? We'll discuss the innovations and politics--some brilliant and some abhorrent--that have played a key role, starting with beer riots in the Czech Republic. But take heart! We'll also cover how these same forces are now helping create a world that embraces and supports more diversity in beer!
Daniel Gadala-Maria was a biologist who, after a decade of study and beer-related side-gigs, turned his hobby into his profession; he's now a brewer at Marin Brewing Company and a beertender at The Monk's Kettle.
"The Tenacious Life of San Francisco's Cable Cars" by Strephon Taylor
Before our modern transportation systems, U.S. cities were about as big as a person could easily walk. As technology advanced after the Civil War, the horse-drawn omnibus became the preferred method of mass transit and cities began growing. But after witnessing a horse-drawn streetcar accident, Andrew Smith Hallidie, a San Francisco resident, put his knowledge of Gold Rush ore mining using steel rope into action: On Clay Street in 1873, the first successful cable car gripped popular imagination and thus began our ride through history.
Since 2010, Strephon has been producing his own movies and music through November Fire Recordings. Most of the projects are celebrations of Halloween, sci-fi, and horror... and San Francisco: "Remembering Playland," "Sutro's: The Palace at Lands End," "The Cliff House and Sutro Heights," and now "San Francisco Cable Cars." He has also shared wacky, spooky tales of San Francisco as the character Slob on "Creepy KOFY Movie Time."
With: Alpha Bravo, who'll be spinning tunes specially selected to match our presenters' themes. Follow the set list on Twitter @djalphabravo
Food: Grilled Cheese Guy!
Plus: The San Francisco Public Library will be on hand to dole out library cards, reading lists, and the hottest branch gossip.

But the battle-scarred legends haven't endured for 40-odd years ...

John "Ace" Cannon (born May 5, 1934 in Grenada, Mississippi) is an American tenor and alto saxophonist. He played and toured with Hi Records stablemate Bill Black's Combo, and started a solo career with his record "Tuff" in 1961, using the Black combo as his backing group. "Tuff" hit #17 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in 1962, and the follow-up single "Blues (Stay Away from Me)" hit #36 that same year. In April 1965, he released Ace Cannon Live (HL 12025); according to the liner notes by Nick Pesce the album was recorded in front of a live audience inside Hi's recording studio, and Pesce claims this was the first time such an album had ever been recorded (as opposed to previous live albums recorded in concert venues).
Cannon was inducted into both the Rock and Soul Hall of Fame and the Rockabilly Hall of Fame in 2000. In May 2007, his hometown of Calhoun City, Mississippi, hosted its first annual Ace Cannon Festival, and on December 9, 2008, he was honored with induction into the Mississippi Musicians' Hall of Fame.
After years of travelling and entertaining fans the world over, he moved back to Calhoun City in the late 1980s and resides there today. He still plays numerous dates each year, and can be found most days working on his golf game at his home course.

Adeline: Bait Dog fighting for her life.
Imagine having your mouth and limbs bound. Then being repeatedly attacked and abused over and over and over. This is the life that most Bait Dogs live. Read the story of Tiny Adeline a survivor of a dog-fighting ring.
Adeline was found on the streets of Newark a few days ago, her body torn up with bite wounds. She was taken to an Emergency Vet for treatment for these wounds covering her petite body. The officers who found Adeline can only guess she was used as a bait dog given her 20 pound build and sweet, forgiving nature.
Adeline immediately stole the heart of a Pathway To Hope volunteer who knew they needed to do something. After being taken back to the shelter for medical care, Pathway staff were told that she urgently needed a foster and quarantine due to her bite wounds. There was no space to hold a dog for quarantine at the shelter. Adeline fell into the quarantine category only because she was dumped, and though we know she is victim to dog fighting, it is policy.
Without a definitive plan A Pathway To Hope volunteers knew that Adeline needed rescue. Yesterday, Adeline joined Pathway and was hospitalized again at AERA to treat her wounds. She was regurgitating and had air under her skin, and her wounds were raw and painful, but she never stopped wanting to find an open lap to curl up into.
We have partnered with A Pathway To Hope to help raise the funds needed for Adeline's care. You can make a difference in Adeline's life one tee, hoodie or bracelet at a time!
A Pathway to Hope
A Pathway to Hope rescues, rehabilitates and rehomes stray and abandoned dogs and cats. We focus in two main areas: south to north rescue of northern breed dogs and the rescue of abandoned cats that cannot survive on their own. We are comprised of a small group of foster homes and are committed to the care of our rescue dogs and cats for as long as necessary. We have a network of volunteers from the southern states to the northeast, who transport, foster and screen potential adopters.

4 thoughts on "Still at it…..An update…"
My fingers are still crossed for you! Try to keep your sanilty while waiting. It would be interesting to know if any one else has ever had a mother daughter mix up with DNA testing. Sounds fishy, but I suppose it could happen.
I tracked the guy down that founded the company. He now does fertility work. He gave this explanation on how if she had called they would have suggested a local court approved lab etc. She thought he should be sued but it would be one of those things were it's stated what it is on the bottom and we were to know what it meant etc They still sell those test to this day but now a lot cheaper and at Walgreens and some other pharmacies. The old site still stands but with no contact updated. I found him through Manta and then googled his personal name and found the fertility company. Most people that took that test back then probably never found out it was garbage. I can't imagine what that test would prove??? It's like saying "yeah, don't worry, it's your kid." DNA Id Check was the name out of Chicago.
What's done is done. I hope this potential cousin follows through. 🙂
Good luck to you. My mother was adopted – then her adopted parent died and she was "left" in someone's care – I guess social services were way-different then. She received a birth certificate at some point and my brother's been using genealogical documentation to trace her family. From your experience, it sounds like DNA – at least, the "popular" tests I see advertised – can be a scam. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Thank you. Mine was a sealed adoption. I still have the post it a worker wrote telling me "you have no right to this information" . This was years ago when I requested my birth/pre adoption info.

The bikes in this
shootout are not the latest and greatest, but they are good learners' bikes, or
'step-up' bikes from something smaller to something larger. They don't have high
revving, high-risk engines, lightweight components, razor sharp handling and
seats like a plank. These bikes are of the 'old school'. They have softish
suspensions, so learners can ride them without getting beaten up, soft power,
less ground clearance but lower seat heights than their modern counterparts,
electric-start and single-cylinder air-cooled engines.
You can take them on-road too because they have all the paraphernalia required
for that role - mirrors, full lighting, dual purpose rubber and all that jazz.
All three have been around since the weather so they're a known quantity.
They're easy to live with too, and although considerably heavier than the latest
250 four-strokes, designed to get you to the flag with the least physical and
emotional stress.
If you're expecting arm-stretching power from these engines, forget it; they
won't pull a sailor off your sister. They won't intimidate anyone either, and
that's a good thing when you consider who these bikes are aimed at. All are very
forgiving engines though, and the DBT crew pushed the forgiveness button all
day. The other thing we'll say is that these engines are whisper quiet. If you
want to make a stealthy getaway to the pub, your wife won't notice you've gone.
And here's another thing: they might be doughy but these 250s will go anywhere a
modern, competition-oriented 250 will go.
Getting up a crappy hill is usually a confrontation between rider skill and
angle-of-slope, but if you know the basics well enough, you might be left behind
by a faster rider on a CRF250X or a WR250F, but you'll get up the same hill
nonetheless if you have dirt tyres and dirt gearing.
Before we take these bikes into the bush and do rude things to them, let's see
how they stack up on paper.
#1: PRICE: Now here's an interesting thing. These bikes share a
market niche, so none can afford to be slower, fatter, larger or much more
expensive than any of the others. That's why there's a certain homogeneity in
the specs, sand in the retail prices. From the dearest to the cheapest, here's
the dollar deal:
There's only $290 bucks in it so don't get hysterical over the price of the
Honda. And, by the way, when you're researching bike prices, don't take the
manufacturer's recommended retail as the last word. Many dealers have their own
discounted prices and these can be several hundred dollars under "recommended
retail". In that case the price difference between the Honda and the others
could be negligible.
#2: WARRANTY: Most modern 250cc four-strokes have laughable
three-month 'warranties' that in no way reflect the amount of moola you spend to
buy one. (Honda's CRF450X has a three months parts-only warranty. Whaddya think
of that?) The warranties on these particular four-strokes are more generous
though, because they're not hard-core dirt weapons that'll be thrashed every
weekend, or worse, raced, so there won't be as much collateral damage or as many
civilian casualties. Here's how far the respective manufacturers will open their
wallets on product support:
TT-R250: Two year warranty, unlimited kilometres.
DR-Z250: One year warranty, unlimited kilometres.
XR250L: One year warranty, unlimited kilometres.
#3: WEIGHT: Heavy bikes are harder to manoeuvre at low speed,
and they're a bastard to pick up when you drop 'em. From the heaviest to the
lightest, here's the drum on dry weight:
XR250L: 128kg
TT-R250: 120kg
DR-Z250: 118kg.
Yamaha and Suzuki yes, Honda no. This, in our opinion, is a mistake. As an
example, the Suzuki's battery died, and the engine twice fouled a plug during
this test. Had it not been for the kickstarter, all this bike would have done is
take up space in the garage. As for the Honda, this is not the same engine as
they use in the XR250R. It's a version modified for electric-start and no
back-up kickstarter is available for it. Here's our advice: if you're struggling
through the mud, the blood and the beer on dual purpose tyres, carry a tent.
Why? If you drain the battery you'll be sleeping with the wombats.
#5: SEAT HEIGHT: Don't believe the Suzuki spec sheet. This bike
has a seat height of 890mm but the spec sheet says 920mm.
We knew something was wrong when we lined them up at HQ. Here's the news on bum
TT-R250: 910mm
DR-Z250: 890mm
XR250L: 875mm.
We picked 40 kilometres of the tightest trails we could find. Lets face it,
these aren't fire trail blasters. This is how much juice they
Yamaha: 39.1km/2.5L, or 15.6 km/L
Honda: 39.1km/2.8L, or 14.0 km/L
Suzuki: 39.1km/2.7L, or 14.5 km/L
None of these is gunna break the bank when you haul up at the bowser. From the
Suzuki's 10.5 litre tank you should get about 150km. From the Honda's 9.7 litre
tank you'll run about 135km, and from the Yamaha's 10 litre tank about 160km.
All things being equal of course, which they never are with fuel consumption, so
you can view these figures as slightly if not totally rubbery.
Hard and soft: All came with the clicker settings set dead in the middle of the
adjustment range. For our crew, who all weigh in at 80kg and above, the Suzuki
and Honda are on the soft side, a trait that our super-novice appreciated. The
Yamaha is noticeably firmer. It's still plush but the more experienced riders
prefer the Yamaha.
How much adjustment?: Reasonable amounts on the forks. The Yamaha has 22 clicks
on compression, the Honda 20 clicks, while the techno-freak Suzuki has 24 clicks
on rebound and 16 on compression. On the rear the Honda has 20 clicks of
compression adjustment. We can't tell you how much rebound adjustment it has
because we can't get past the chain-guard to get at the screw. The Yamaha had
only compression adjustment on the shock, with 22 clicks from softest to
hardest. The Suzuki had a screw with two and a quarter turns from softest to
hardest for compression, and another screw with six turns from softest to
hardest for rebound.
Do they work?: The respective suspensions soak up the little ripples well.
Tottering along at steady speeds is a very comfortable affair, however the Honda
shows a nervous tendency when the going gets rough. It isn't enough to scare
experienced riders but it did worry our novice. We attempted to rectify this by
stiffening the suspension but the clickers seemed to have little effect on the
fork action, and hence no effect on the nervousness. Even with clickers dialled
right up to Hard it was still a soft ride.
The clickers on the Suzuki and Yamaha produced noticeable effect. Two of our
riders reckon the Yamaha is too stiff with the clickers wound right up. Then we
were actually surprised by the improvement in the Suzuki once we got the
suspension dialled in. With its low centre of gravity it was king of the flat
turns. We were also surprised at how much corner speed you could hold on the
yella terra.
When things get rough the Yamaha is the best performer of the bunch. Its stiffer
suspension, along slim lines and flat seat make it the easiest to move around.
The Yamaha also feels the lightest, which makes the TT-R easier to ride 'fast'
for longer.
All run Nissin brakes so you'd expect them to be similar in performance, but the
Suzuki throws a spanner in the works. It's the standout of the bunch. The front
is super strong with plenty of feel, in fact it's better than many of the race
bikes we've ridden lately. The Honda and Yamaha have plenty of feel but just
don't match the Suzuki for power. Don't get us wrong, they're up to the task of
hauling you to a stop, but riding the Suzuki you realise how much better it is.
The DR-Z has the best rear brake too. The Yamaha has a nice neutral feel and in
any other company we'd be telling you what a nice brake this is. Unfortunately
the Honda rear brake has little feel and locks up easily.
The longevity of these engines, coupled with a minimum for maintenance, is a
major drawcard for novices. Apart from oiling the chain dumping the engine oil
and keeping the air filter clean there isn't a lot to do. The three have good
easy access to the air filter, although it was surprising to find a paper filter
on the Honda. It's simple to maintain, sure, you merely replace it, but it does
emphasise the Honda road bias. Paper filters are bad news when riding in muddy
slop. Both the Yamaha and Suzuki come with a much more (dirt) appropriate foam
Each bike has a area in which it excels. It's fairly obvious that the Honda is
designed more for street use, and with that in mind we're giving it the Best
Commuter Award. It feels more at home on the pavement than the other two.
The Yamaha is the tallest, the slimmest, and has the firmest suspension. There's
no doubt it's been made with more dirt emphasis so the TT-R gets the Best In The
Dirt Award.
The Suzuki is a real surprise packet. It isn't far behind the Yamaha in the
bush, and with its torquey engine and low seat height it's obvious that this one
should get our Best Beginners' Bike Award. Going a little further, here's the
split for the other categories:

During transport packages risks water spray and rain. For this reason water protection is needed. Some materials have an excellent water protection and others have problems. Paper based packaging as corrugated which is used by many have some problems.
Normal materials are made of recycled fibres. The fibres become shorter and shorter every time the material is reused. Shorter fibre results in fast reaction for the water to be absorbed by the paper – and also a fast reduction in the specifications of the paper based packaging material.
New and excellent fibres are long and water has difficulties in being absorbed. The result is that specifications can last for days. Coated paper can also increase water resistance. The coating can be wax, plastic, print etc. Finally a plastic film over the package can do the job.
If you have suppliers in countries with bad access to forest products the quality of corrugated paper can be really bad.

The surprising benefits of avocados
Green goodness
Ever polished off a whole bowl of guacamole in one sitting? We're guilty of that. Thankfully, the sin-factor that comes with this avocado-rich treat is negligible. This green fruit (yep, it's technically a fruit, not a vegetable) is low in sugar and generous with fiber, helping you to feel full longer. Even a simple avocado juice (drizzled with lashings of gula melaka for added flavour) can double up as a quick lunch-fix, helping to curb cravings for the next few hours.
The creamy flesh of the avocado offers up a cocktail of vitamins and minerals including potassium, vitamins B and E, iron, and niacin. Some might argue that avocados are high in fat — and they are — but they contain monounsaturated fat, a beneficial fat that helps to lower bad cholesterol levels when eaten in moderation.
Looking to whip up an avocado-filled treat? Below, three ways to enjoy this versatile, green fruit.

Christine Campbell
Assistant Coach
Christine Campbell joined the Robert Morris University staff in July of 2017 and will oversee the Colonials pitching staff.
"I'm extremely excited to join the RMU coaching staff this fall," said Campbell. "I'm eager to share my pitching knowledge and experience, but I'm most looking forward to meeting the players and working with the coaching staff to help them reach their goal of a Northeast Conference championship. I'll be giving my full heart to the team as a part of the RMU coaching staff and am very excited to become a member of the Colonial family."
A 2017 graduate of Lehigh University with a degree in business, Campbell had an impressive four-year career with the Mountain Hawks culminating in a Patriot League Championship and NCAA Tournament appearance in 2017. A key cog in that championship run, Campbell was named the Patriot League Pitcher of the Year and a National Fastpitch Coaches Association All-Region Third Team selection. Campbell was a three-time All-Patriot League pick, earning a spot on the first team as a sophomore in 2015.
Campbell collected 69 victories in her career, second most in Lehigh history, against just 24 losses. Her 117 appearances and six career saves stand third. She threw 616.0 innings, striking out 380 batters to just 181 walks and posted a 2.17 career earned run average.
As a senior, Campbell posted a 22-6 record and a 2.21 earned run average in 35 appearances. Her win total and games pitched were fourth in team history. She was named the Patriot League Tournament MVP, throwing 14 innings and allowing just two earned runs on the final day of the championship event. Campbell led the team in wins, ERA, innings pitched and strikeouts while topping the conference in victories.
Campbell spent the summer playing for the Irish National Softball Team in the European National Softball Championship in Italy. Her grandfather was born in Ireland, giving her dual citizenship. Campbell pitched 48.2 of the team's 57.0 innings, posting a 3-3 record with a 2.88 earned run average. She threw complete game shutouts against Lithuania and Crotia, helping Ireland to a 15th place finish, up nine spots from the team's previous appearance in the championship.

These re-usable, calibrated mixing cups are ideal for mixing GlassCast epoxy resins that require a mix ratio by volume - such as GlassCast 10 and GlassCast 50. Even when weighing your resin out, they are still a handy reusable pot for mixing resin.
Product Options (Please Choose)
Availability: 4546 in stock
These reusable, calibrated mixing cups are ideal for mixing GlassCast epoxy resins that require a mix ratio by volume - such as the GlassCast 10 and GlassCast 50. Even when weighing your resin out, they are still a handy reusable pot for mixing resin.
The mixing cups are made from polypropylene which means that epoxy resin will not stick to them and they feature square corners which are better for thorough mixing.
The cups are available in two sizes; 1300ml and 2240ml. To allow plenty of room for mixing we suggest batches of around 1kg in the 1300ml cup and 2kg in the 2240ml cup. Choose the size you require from the drop-down list at the top of the page.
Calibrated Mixing Cup Advantages
How to Use
Using the Calibration
The calibration marks shown on the cup can be used to get accurate ratios of resin to hardener when using ratios provided in parts by volume. It should be noted that these calibrated ratios should NOT be used when you are using a parts by weight ratio where scales should be used instead.
We suggest using the calibrated ratios on the mixing cups for resins where the easiest mix ratio is given in parts-by-volume, such as GlassCast 10 or GlassCast 50 which use a 2:1 by volume mix ratio.
To use the calibration in this way, locate the markings on the cup which relate to a 2:1 mix ratio. You will see a number of stepped lines which run from 'A' to 'B'. To measure resin and hardener at a 2:1 mix ratio, simply fill the cup with resin to the bottom 'A' mark on one of these lines and then add hardener until you reach the top 'B' mark on the same line. Simple!
General Use
When mixing resin, it is strongly recommended to use a mixing cup with square corners and then use a mixing stick which also has square corners. This allows resin or hardener to be properly mixed, even in tight corners. Never use a mixing stick with round corners otherwise unmixed resin is likely to collect in these areas. Our Reusable Resin Mixing Stick is highly recommended to use with these calibrated cups.
Because these calibrated mixing cups are made from non-stick polypropylene, in many cases the easiest way to clear them is to allow the resin to cure fully and then remove it in one from the cup. Please note that although the cups can be re-used in this way, they are only thin-walled and so occasional breakages should be expected.
Questions Asked About Calibrated Mixing Cups
The dimensions of the Calibrated Mixing cups are as follows:
1300ml Size
|Height (mm)
|Outside Diameter (mm)
|Inside Diameter (mm)
2240ml Size
|Height (mm)
|Outside Diameter (mm)
|Inside Diameter (mm)
The basic way is to wipe out leftover resin with a tissue and then clean off any residual resin with some more tissue wetted out with a solvent such as acetone or methylated spirit.
Another common way to clean the cups after use is to simply let any residual/leftover resin cure in them fully and then once it can cured it can usually be knocked out as a whole, cured piece of resin. This tends to work well for the 'second mix' pot if you're doing a 'double potting' procedure because all of the resin that's in the pot will have already been mixed and so will cure fully. It tends not to work so well for the first cup where residual resin on the sides or in the corners is often not fully mixed and so doesn't fully cure. In this case you normally need to wipe the uncured resin out with some tissue to remove it and then clean the cup with more tissue and some solvent, such as acetone or methylated spirit.
To avoid spilling resin during a thorough mixing process, it is recommended to keep the total batch size under 1000ml for the 1300ml cup size and under 1800ml for the 2240ml cup size.

Debuggin BROKEN in 1144 Follow
Build 1144 is still generating a bad command line argument for debugging. I can take the command, modify it and run it in dos and it will work. This has to be a stopship bug since you would never release an ide that can't debug. This seems like a very easy fix and I don't really understand why it hasn't been done yet except for maybe it was overlooked.
The server=y flag needs to bet set and the addresss=host:port needs the host removed from it. At least that is what fixed it on my machine.
this only seems to be happening when debugging applets. I can debug an application fine. It seems very simple to fix. It looks like the command line that is generated is incorrect.

Happiness – we all want to be happy. A common thread that unites people worldwide, happiness is a lifelong journey. How do we define happiness and what does it look like? It is certainly big business. We see this in the many self-help books that are available as well as the bombardment of television and radio advertisements that sell their idea of happiness. Yet happiness is often elusive, especially when based on the acquisition of some "thing". We feel it in the moment and then a sense of dissatisfaction slowly creeps back in. In the culture of instant gratification, we find that happiness is short-lived without some external stimuli to replace the one we've grown bored with. So how do we develop skills to nurture a more enduring sense of happiness?
"Happiness is not a goal: it is a by-product". ~ Eleanor Roosevelt
It is often said that happiness is subjective. The subjectivity refers to satisfaction with life, or how we assess our own life. The emotion of happiness is related to that assessment and what we do to maintain and increase our level of satisfaction. So, simply said, happiness is in the doing. We create our happiness by our actions which influence the way we think and feel. This is the classic cognitive behavioral connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and how they influence each other. If we engage in behaviors that add meaning and purpose to our lives, then the way we think and feel will be positively affected.
Happiness Within Reach
So here are some practical activities we can put into practice that can generate a more lasting sense of happiness and create a more fulfilled life:
- Gratitude – Developing a sense of appreciation refocuses our attention on what we have as opposed to what we lack. It helps us to be thankful for the goodness we have in our lives in the present moment. Many studies link a greater sense of happiness and wellbeing to gratitude ( https://www.health.harvard.edu/healthbeat/giving-thanks-can-make-you-happier). Also, watch this interesting TED Talk on this.
- Forgiveness – This is an act of kindness we offer ourselves. It allows us to let go of resentments and free ourselves of the burden we are carrying with us. Forgiveness doesn't mean to forget or allow others to mistreat us, but it does provide space to move forward in a more flexible and open way and allow room for joy.
- Service – Doing something for others, even simple actions, adds meaning and fulfillment to our lives and fosters personal growth. Find ways to give of your time such as volunteering, helping a friend, or supporting a cause.
- Fun – Take some time to consider what you like to do and take action. Increasing fun activities such as creative hobbies, socializing, sports, reading, or whatever it may be makes us feel more positive and gives a sense of accomplishment.
- Stay connected – Nurturing friendships and other relationships, including family, can provide an enduring sense of wellbeing and pleasure. It allows us to feel supported.
- Manage stress – We cannot control all the factors in life and challenges will certainly arise. So, it is important that we find meaningful and helpful ways to manage the stress effectively. Find what works. Consider activities such as exercise, talking to a friend, creating personal time, meditation, or any other self-care tool that maximizes wellbeing.
- Strengths – Acknowledge strengths that help you to be your best. Spend time developing them and putting them into practice in new ways daily. This will help you to increase self-esteem which makes you feel better. Using your strengths in new ways also lends energy to better manage our weaker areas.
- Spiritual practice – Being spiritual does not only apply to religious practices. It can also be a way for us to care for our soul/spirit the way we would care for our body. These can be as simple as a relaxing day at the beach, a walk in nature, reading an uplifting book, journaling, yoga, meditation, or any other practice that opens the heart and uplifts the soul.
- Acceptance – We are human beings and we are not perfect. When we let go of the self-judgment and guilt and begin to practice forgiveness, understanding, kindness, generosity, and compassion with ourselves, we bring about more peace of mind and validate our own innate worthiness. Recognize that life is journey of becoming.
And don't forget to smile, a lot!!

One of the most inspirational stories in college football the past few years has earned Jake Olson some much-deserved hardware.
Tuesday, the Walter Camp Foundation announced that Olson has been named as the recipient of the 2018 Walter Camp Award of Perseverance. Olson, without sight in either eye since the age of 12, made history last year as a member of USC's special teams by becoming the second legally-blind player to appear in an NCAA football game.
"Jake's story is an inspiration to all, and our Foundation is honored to recognize him with the award of perseverance," said Michael Madera, Walter Camp Foundation president, in a statement. "Jake has demonstrated courage and a strong will to succeed despite the challenges he has had to overcome."
The award is merely a continuation of what's been nearly a decade's worth of touching moments for a remarkable young man.
In 2009, the Pete Carroll-led USC Trojans football team essentially adopted Olson, a teenage fan of the program at the time suffering from cancer of the retina in his right eye (he lost his left eye when he was less than one year old). It was subsequently determined that Olson would need the right eye removed; on his final day of sight prior to the surgery that would leave him blind for the rest of his life, he chose to attend a Trojans football practice.
Fast-forward a few years, and Olson walked on to the USC football team as a long-snapper in 2015. He took his first live-drill reps with the Trojans in September of that year, then snapped for the team in the 2016 spring game. While he didn't see any real-game action either year, in last season's opener, at the end of USC's closer-than-expected win over Western Michigan, Olson finally got to take his place on the field in an actual game with the rest of his special teams teammates as the long-snapper on an extra point — thanks in large part to a very classy assist from WMU head coach Tim Lester.
Olson remains a playing member of the Trojans football team, and is currently in his redshirt junior season. He's listed as the Trojans' third-team long-snapper on the team's most recent depth chart, although he hasn't taken the field in a game this season.

I don't know that I'm ready to replace my alarm system, but earlier this week one man in Georgia took to Facebook to call for help when burglars were in his house.
College student Nitesh Bhakta was at home in his room when robbers broke into his house. Bhakta fled his room to hide in the attic. With no way out and no way to call the police, Bhakta sent out a cry for help over Facebook.
Bhakta's single word status update of "HELLLLLLLLP!" was all it took to raise the alarm. A friend saw the post and called 911 and police arrived in time to capture one of the masked men who had tied up Bhakta's grandmother and sister before ransacking the house.
Police say without Bhakta's Facebook cry for help, it could have been the next morning before anyone found the family.

I have been thinking more about how to take forward my hedgerow library idea, and whether to leave the pages blank (similar in spirit to the River Library work of Racquel Rabonovich which inspired it), or whether to inscribe more knowledge upon them. I quite like the idea of capturing some sort of hedgerow folk knowledge – old wisdom, recipe, herblore or the like – using the paper which embodies directly the plant being discussed. I realise this leans slightly back towards the ritual magic of my old project proposal – well, some interests are ingrained I guess!
As a way forward, I have been looking into historical written languages as well as the asemic, content-less forms. I started with the two scripts I know from Northumbrian folklore – namely Runes and Ogham, both native and isolated to Northern Europe. During my exploration, I discovered some very interesting facts about Ogham script. Used as an alphabet (not a language), it was used around the 4th century AD to write old Irish (mainly) as well as old Welsh and Pictish, through carvings on wood and stone monuments across the British Isles. It is thought that the script was designed as a code to write secret messages between people (some sources claim it was reserved for use by senior members of the Druids, so ordinary folk would not understand).
The Ogham alphabet (vertical)*
The pronunciation of the letters shown is for Primitive Irish the language used in the majority of Ogham inscriptions. The names and sounds represented by of the letters uath and straif are uncertain. There are many different version of the letter names – the standard ones are used here [with the Primitive Irish ones, where known, in brackets]
I discovered an exquisite book in the library special collection which used the basis of Ogham as a code to create a limited edition artists book.
Here are a few photos of the pages themselves – so beautifully done.
Much inspiration which can be gleamed from this. I started off by thinking of using stitch to directly copy some Ogham letters onto paper, however once I started stitching I ended up creating something different – and more uniquely my own "language". Unexpected and quite pleasing, I let the stitches follow the curve of the thread and lie where they wanted to lie. This was my first samples using paper yarn:
the second was using some of my hand-dyed papers
I quite like how these have come out, and although still just tests, this could be a valuable strand of work to follow up. An outstanding question springs to mind though: do I want these stitched messages to be pure expression? or do I want to create some deep and involved cryptographic stitched script? I want to beware crossing the line into over-literal and over-baked ideas.
…and where to go next?

Predicting the beautiful game can be a fool's errand, but fortune favors the bold. Yahoo Soccer has run the stats and analyzed the form books for five of the biggest games this weekend …
Tottenham vs. Manchester City
The weekend's Premier League headliner is a meeting between two teams whose seasons aren't going quite as planned.
Manchester City are drifting in Liverpool's wake and battling Leicester for second place in the league, while Tottenham find themselves six points outside the top four, with a manager whom few fans would have picked to lead their side at the start of the campaign.
During the window, Spurs have seen Christian Eriksen depart and Steven Bergwijn arrive, but there remains a lack of firepower in the attack due to Harry Kane's injury layoff.
CIty, meanwhile, have some defensive frailties as Benjamin Mendy and Fernandinho fight for fitness, while Aymeric Laporte gingerly makes his way back into the squad.
In spite of City's shortcomings, they are heavy favorites with the bookmakers (-200 with BetMGM) due in part to Tottenham's poor form. A win against lowly Norwich last week represents their only victory in their last five league games.
Furthermore, City have also won their last two away trips to Spurs in the league. Pep Guardiola boasts a superior record against Jose Mourinho, having won 11 and lost only five of their 22 total meetings.
Tottenham came back from behind twice to hold City to a 2-2 draw at the Etihad earlier this season, but that was a very different Tottenham side. Given City's defensive issues, there's a good chance the hosts will find the net (even with their depleted attacking line), but the smart money is on an away win.
Prediction: Tottenham 1-2 Manchester City
Best Bet: Manchester City to win and both teams to score (+160 on BetMGM). City have kept only two clean sheets in their last seven league outings and have conceded six goals in their last four meetings with Tottenham.
Real Madrid vs. Atletico Madrid
Saturday's Madrid derby brings together two sides in very different form. Real Madrid took advantage of Barcelona's slip-up to climb to the summit of La Liga last weekend, and Zinedine Zidane's side remain undefeated in all competitions since mid-October.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, have only scored a single goal in their last four outings in all competitions, a period during which they were unceremoniously dumped out of the Copa del Rey by second-tier side Cultural Leonesa.
Diego Simeone's men sit outside the top four on goal difference — and there is plenty of pressure on the Argentine right now.
A goalless draw is priced at +650 on BetMGM, which seems like remarkably good value, given the amount of times the Madrid Derby has ended in a stalemate recently. Three of the last five meetings have ended 0-0, and their most recent clash in the Spanish Super Cup was goalless until Los Blancos claimed the title on penalties.
Madrid derbies tend to be cagey affairs, but they can also be unbridled goalfests, such as the 7-3 friendly in the International Champions Cup last summer, and Atleti's 4-2 win in the 2018 UEFA Super Cup.
This match may land somewhere in the middle, with a narrow win for the hosts. Zidane's side are in good scoring form (they have scored a combined five goals against top four opponents Sevilla and Getafe in 2020 already) and their neighbors are struggling to find the net. An injury to star forward Joao Felix and the potential return to fitness of Sergio Ramos suggests Atleti's goalscoring woes will continue.
Prediction: Real Madrid 2-0 Atletico Madrid
Best Bet: Real Madrid to win and under 2.5 total goals (+290 with BetMGM). There have been under 2.5 goals in five of the last six Madrid derbies in the league, and also in 15 of Atleti's last 18 league games.
RB Leipzig vs. Borussia Monchengladbach
It's hard to believe, but on Matchday 20 in the Bundesliga, we have a top-of-the-table clash that doesn't involve Bayern Munich!
League leaders RB Leipzig slipped up at Eintracht Frankfurt last week, but can stay atop the pile with what would be their sixth consecutive home league win this weekend. However, third-place opponents Borussia Monchengladbach can leapfrog the East Germans to the summit if they take three points.
Leipzig, who are looking to stay at the top of the league for the ninth consecutive matchday, are heavy favorites at -189 on BetMGM. They have never been beaten by Gladbach and have won each of the last four encounters.
The Foals are capable of an upset and rarely look defeated — they've taken 12 points from games in which they've fallen behind this season — but RB Leipzig are a force to be reckoned with at home, and should return to winning ways.
Prediction: RB Leipzig 3-1 Borussia Monchengladbach
Best Bet: Timo Werner to score first (+275 on BetMGM). The prolific German striker has scored 20 goals in 19 games this season and bagged a hat trick against Gladbach earlier this season.
Ajax vs. PSV Eindhoven
Those looking to get the most out of an ESPN+ subscription would do well to tune into the latest edition of De Topper on Sunday at 10:45 a.m. ET.
The Dutch rivalry doesn't quite carry the same cache as De Klassieker (between Ajax and Feyenoord) but it is typically a more heavyweight encounter.
Ajax are currently enjoying a three-point lead atop the table, while PSV are 11 points behind in fifth. The visitors are also in poor form, with no wins in their last five outings, including an elimination to lower division side NAC Breda in the Dutch Cup.
The Amsterdammers, however, are also in curious form, having lost three of their last five league games.
Given the form book, this match could go either way, but home advantage is huge. The away team hasn't won any of the last seven meetings and Ajax have won their last two encounters with PSV at the Amsterdam Arena by a 6-1 aggregate scoreline.
This one ended in a draw earlier this season, but Ajax should have the edge this weekend.
Prediction: Ajax 2-1 PSV
Best Bet: Ajax to win and both teams to score (+150 on BetMGM). Ajax have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last eight league games, while PSV have only failed to score in one of their last 11 games.

Saint Wolfeius of St Benet Hulme
December 9 is the Feast of Saint Wolfeius, a hermit at St Benet Hulme in the English county of Norfolk. He is known from the writings of William Worcester (d. c. 1482), who recorded him as the first hermit of St Benet Hulme. He died, possibly sometime in the eleventh century, on 9 December which thus became his feast day.
St Benet's Abbey is a ruined abbey of the Order of Saint Benedict situated on the River Bure within The Broads in Norfolk England.
"St Benet's, according to abbey tradition, was founded on the site of a ninth-century monastery where the hermit Suneman was martyred by the Danes. About the end of the tenth century it was rebuilt by one Wulfric. A generation later, c. 1022, its estates of Horning, Ludham and Neatishead were confirmed by King Canute. St Benet's is the only religious house not closed down by Henry VIII during the Dissolution of the Monasteries. Instead he united the Abbacy with the bishopric of Norwich and therefore the Bishops of Norwich have remained abbots of St Benet's to this day."

Former Miss Universe Kenya Opens Fashion Store
June 21, 2017 Add Comment
Former Miss Universe Kenya Rachel Mbuki Marete has opened the doors to her newly launched fashion store – Mbuki's Closet.
The beauty queen, a former celebrity TV host based in Los Angeles, California, officially opened the store last week Wednesday.
According to the gorgeous media girl, she came up with the idea as early as last year.
"Last year, when I came back home I realized it was perfect time to come back and set up something in Kenya. I was tired of feeling like a foreigner whenever I visited. So I decided to set up a couple of businesses because I think they are great ideas," said Rachel in a past interview.
She added: "I decided to open the fashion line because every time I was around, my friends would request I buy them either shoes or dresses. I also realised it is hard shopping here. Finding specific brands and good quality stuff was hard, so, I decided to bring the same brands at favourable prices."
The store is located along Ngong Road inside Marsabit plaza and stocks high-end fashion imported from Los Angeles California.

Conventional Laproscopic Surgery Market to Witness a Downfall with the Boom in Adoption of Robotic Surgery Systems
New and advanced robotic surgery systems have improved clinical outcomes in a lot of ways. Robotic surgery is better than laproscopic surgery in a lot of ways, as laproscopic surgeries have a limited degree of flexibility, counterintuitive movements, low dexterity and chances of physical tremors. These issues have been addressed by robotic surgery systems quite well, and also include much better features with the integration of improved technology. Surgeons are now provided with improved vision and precision. Further, patients experience shorter length of hospital stay and fewer pre-operative complications. Robotic surgery systems also ensure less human errors. These advantages are expected to further enhance the use of robotic surgery systems over conventional laproscopic surgery in the global market and provide more incremental opportunities for manufacturers of robotic surgery systems.
Research Report Overview @ https://www.persistencemarketresearch.com/market-research/robotic-surgery-market.asp
In many other ways, robotic surgery systems have been observed to be a more convenient option, which has proved to be efficient for patient health management. The procedure reduces chances of human errors, which is a significant factor that shapes the perception of patients regarding a particular treatment method. In retrospect, with the increasing healthcare expenditure across the globe, technological advancements and the growing procedural volumes of robotic surgeries, it is necessary for patients as well as doctors to reduce the cases of human errors.

Following the Coincheck Inc. heist, where over $500 million in digital currency was stolen, investigations have been underway to try and catch the culprits and recover the stolen funds. Some good news has been shared this week that should be of use in catching these criminals. A portion of the digital money has been traced to a crypto exchange located in Canada, according to new information from BIG Blockchain Intelligence Group Inc.
The stolen NEM tokens have been being transferred to an exchange in Vancouver, and converted into other digital currencies, after which they might be being sent back to Japan, according to the President and co-founder of BIG, Shone Anstey. These new findings will be given to law enforcement to act on accordingly.
"We felt it was a significant amount that warranted looking into," Anstey explains. "They are trying to move it before the door is closed, but there is a lot to move."
The hi-jacked digital funds can be followed online, because Bitcoin transactions are public, even though the identities of the people making the trades can be kept a secret. BIG has been able to utilize public ledger information to trace the tokens.
Meanwhile, Coincheck has been able to identify and publish 11 addresses where all the stolen digital money has gone. On Friday, a newspaper that is published by the Japan Communist Party shared that more than 24 million of the stolen tokens have been found in a Japanese NEM exchange.
NEM developers have established a tracking program that can allow exchanges to automatically reject stolen funds. The 11 located addresses are now labeled with a tag that says, "coincheck_stolen_funds_do_not_accept_trades : owner_of_this_account_is_hacker."
It's not clear if Coincheck has actually identified who the cyber thieves are at this point, or if they only know the addresses right now.
