While on the Enterprise, Barclay's superiors discovered what he had been doing in the holodeck. He agreed to submit to therapy with Counselor Troi, and gradually weaned himself away from the worst aspects of his problem and increased his self confidence a little.1
Although addicted to one aspect of modern technology, Barclay was terrified of another; he suffered from a debilitating fear of the transporter. He went his whole Starfleet career without using a transporter once, until in 2369 the Enterprise-D was assigned to investigate an accident on board the USS Yosemite. Barclay refused to take part in the away team as it would have involved transporting to the ship. He managed to control his fear enough to use the transporter but when he observed what appeared to be a life form within the transporter beam, Barclay became convinced that he was suffering hallucinations as a result of transporter psychosis, a rare condition experienced by some users of the technology in its early days.2
Barclay forced himself to re-enter the transporter and grabbed the life form he had seen before. When he rematerialised he found himself clutching a member of the missing Yosemite crew, who had been thrown into subspace by an accident on the ship. The Enterprise-D crew were subsequently able to rescue the remaining members of the crew from subspace.2
His hypochondria recurred in 2370, when he became convinced he was suffering from Terellian Death Syndrome. Dr. Crusher diagnosed a mild case of urodelean flu and injected a synthetic T cell to fight the infection. Unfortunately, the treatment caused some of Barclay's introns to mutate and infect the rest of the crew, causing them to 'de-evolve' into earlier forms. The condition, which became known as Barclay's Protomorphosis Syndrome, was eventually cured and the crew returned to normal.3
Barclay transferred off the Enterprise-D before it was lost, moving to Jupiter Station to assist Dr. Zimmerman in the development of the Emergency Medical Hologram project. Barclay worked on the EMH's interpersonal skills, which may provide at least a partial explanation of the program's unpopularity with its patients.4 In 2372 he briefly joined the Enterprise-E, where he served during the Borg attack on Sector 001. He achieved one of his great ambitions by meeting Zefram Cochrane, the inventor of warp drive, when the ship travelled back in time to 2063.5
Barclay subsequently became fascinated with the story of the USS Voyager's struggle to return to Earth from the Delta Quadrant and by 2376 he had left the Enterprise-E to join the Pathfinder project which was attempting to contact the lost Starship. To assist in his efforts, Barclay created a holographic representation of Voyager and its crew. Unfortunately it seemed that his holoaddiction began to recur as he spent more and more time in the program. When Barclay became convinced that the close approach of a pulsar to the MIDAS array would allow him to open up a wormhole to Voyager, his superior at the project was unconvinced. Barclay's increasingly desperate attempts to convince him merely made it appear that he was undergoing a nervous breakdown. Barclay broke into the facility and attempted to establish contact against orders, evading a security team just long enough to get a weak reply from the stranded Starship. With the success of his efforts, Barclay was reinstated and given permission to pursue the technology. This allowed regular contact with Voyager for a brief period each month.6
Barclay continued his work on Pathfinder, helping the Voyager EMH when he was transmitted from Voyager to the Alpha Quadrant to assist in the treatment of his creator, Doctor Zimmerman.7 Later Barclay tried to send a hologram of himself to Voyager, but this attempt failed due to the interference of some Ferengi who were trying to kidnap Seven of Nine in order to steal her nanoprobes.8

SHORT THROW PROJECTION FROM ONLY 34 INCHES AWAY (PDG-DWL100) Project a large 80" diagonal image from the world's shortest projection distance of 34(DWL100) -39(DXL100) inches is achieved by advanced ultra short-focus mirror optical system. This means large images even in relatively small rooms.
FLEXIBILITY WITH D-SUB15 VGA INPUT AND MONITOR OUT The PDG-DWL100/DXL100 offers excellent versatility via 2 D-Sub 15 input/output terminals. Using an optional adapter cable, the D-Sub 15 input can even accept component video signals. One of them can also be connected and used for monitor output for greater flexibility.
8-WATT SPEAKER PLUS MANY FEATURES FOR EDUCATION USE Projectors are increasingly used in more media-rich presentations and are becoming a truly multi-media device. The PDG-DWL100/DXL100 have a 8-watt speaker, loud enough for an average classroom or business meeting room. This eliminates the need for a separate speaker system.
NETWORKING CAPABILITY The PDG-DWL100/DXL100 are equipped with SANYO's exclusive PJ Network Interface for wired networking, a common feature among SANYO's extensive line of commercial projectors. Networking allows the monitoring of projector functions and operation from a long distance via a web browser. Emails can be sent automatically to report the operating status.
SPACE SAVING DESIGN The use of a short-throw lens makes it possible to move the projector from the center of the classroom or meeting room, to a spot closer to the screen. This frees up more room space, and cuts down on the possibility of viewers blocking the image.
CLOSED CAPTION Closed captioning provides the audio portion of a television signal as printed words on the projected screen - helpful for hearing impaired individuals or audio off situations.
KEYSTONE CORRECTION To compensate for keystone (trapezoidal) picture distortion, the PDG-DWL100/DXL100 provides vertical keystone correction with a correction range up to ±15 degrees.

Chicken Parmesan Meatloaf "Muffins"
You know what seems to be all the rage in restaurants these days? Fusion, or the combining of several separate cuisines into one dish/restaurant concept. This is kind of like that, but far less fancy because mine involves meatloaf. It's more like diner-fusion than an elegant and eclectic mix of Japanese, Brazilian and Parisian fare (or whatever). I'm good with that. Meatloaf and Chicken Parmesan are two of my favorite comfort foods, and I loved the idea of combining them. The finished product kind of reminded me of a chicken version of meatballs (which are one of my favorite foods of all time - I LOVE meatballs), so I loved them. Of course I also followed my instinct to portion them into muffin tins, and as always it made for added convenience, presentation, portion control, and in this case – a shorter cooking time! These "muffins make great leftovers and are freezer and kid-friendly. Plus, you get to transform your kitchen into the next great Italian-American fusion restaurant! Look at you, being all hip and fancy.
Chicken Parmesan Meatloaf
Source: adapted from What's Cookin' Chicago?
1 ½ lbs raw ground chicken breast (if you have trouble finding ground chicken that is breast meat only, do what I do and throw the same weight of boneless, skinless chicken breasts into the food processor and run until ground)
1 large egg
1 egg whites
6 T dried breadcrumbs
¾ t dried basil
¾ t dried thyme
¾ t oregano
2 garlic cloves, minced
½ a small onion, chopped small or grated
¾ t salt
1/3 t black pepper
¾ cup Parmesan cheese
¾ cup pasta sauce
¾ cup 2% reduced fat shredded Mozzarella cheese
Optional: dried parsley, oregano or basil for garnish
1. Pre-heat the oven to 350. Lightly mist a muffin tin with cooking spray and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, egg whites, breadcrumbs, basil, thyme, oregano, garlic, onion, salt, pepper and Parmesan cheese and lightly mix together. Do not over handle.
3. Form the meat mixture evenly into the 12 cups of your prepared muffin tin. Spread the pasta sauce evenly over the tops of each muffin. Bake for 20 minutes and remove from the oven. Top each muffin with about a tablespoon of shredded cheese and then return to the oven for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted. Garnish if desired.
Yields 12 muffins. WW P+: 4 per muffin or 7 P+ for 2 muffins (P+ calculated using the recipe builder on weightwatchers.com)

Emily: I saw your "teaser" about this on facebook and I am excited to try it this weekend. My friend at work and I often share your muffin meals or your wonton cups.

Are you basing this on a "standard" size muffin tin or mini muffins?
Thanks I'm a little confused. 4 per serving, 7 P+ for 2 muffins (P+ calculated using the recipe builder on weightwatchers.com)
Does that mean 4 muffins are a serving or 2 are a serving? does it mean that half a serving is 7 points plus?You're the best Emily! We talk about you all the time in our weight watchers meetings! Thank you for providing us all with amazing dishes!

These sound so amazing! And I know my husband will love them!! One question: are we putting in the ground chicken raw, or are we cooking it first?
ReplyDelete Oh YUM! Emily ...you've done it again! I can hardly wait to try these. I've had a rough summer (lots of celebrating & BBQ's happening) ...time for me to get back on track, and these will do the trick. Thanks!
PS: I think super lean gound turkey would work too!It's 8am and I want this for breakfast!!! Guess I'll have to wait until dinner! My husband and I use myfitnesspal to log our food, so a HUGE thank you for including the nutrtional info on your meals--it helps out a lot!

Hi Emily
Many many thanks for your hard work and the wonderful recipes you continue to post. You inspire me and make me seem like the best cook that has ever walked the earth!!
Do you know what the point difference would be if I used ground turkey? I have not had great results with ground chicken and really do not like the texture.
Thank you again and again!! - JenniferSeptember 1, 2012 at 9:48 AM

How did you freeze them? cooked or uncooked? with sauce or without? with cheese or without? I am thinking cooked with sauce only...and reheated with the cheese
Delete I have frozen them fully cooked, cheese and all. I thawed them in the fridge before reheating and put them in the oven on a baking sheet to reheat. It took about 10 mins for them to heat through and they were delicious!
- AnonymousSeptember 2, 2012 at 6:10 PM
sounds AMAZING! I am going to add this to my menu this week!!! :-)
ReplyDelete I made these last night for dinner and they were great! Instead of chicken I used turkey. And to the anonymous person who asked about breadcrumbs.. I used the WW zero point Sara Lee 45 and delightful bread. I toasted 2 pieces and then put it in my blender. Turned out great!
ReplyDeleteOMGOSH, thank you, thank you! This is a fabulous idea. I just started my diet and really need some tips. I just had my 7th baby and am having a harder time losing the weight. I need to learn about portion control and this makes it sooo simple. :D
http://amazingsix.blogspot.comI tried it and it came out delicious!!! My family of 9 loooooves it. I didn't have the right cheese though so I had to use chedder. Was delicious. Here is a picture of how mine turned out.
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=4052050931965&l=031b680c1eYum! Doesn't even look like a WW friendly recipe with the cheese and sauce- can't wait to try!

Maybe this seems like a stupid question, but do you freeze these after cooking? If so, what is the best way to heat them up.
ReplyDeleteRepliesI was just about to ask the same thing... I cook for one and hate having left-overs go to waste.
DeleteI didn't freeze them, but you certainly could. I'd probably just put them back in the oven until they were heated through, or you could definitely try microwaving them. I refrigerated my leftovers and microwaved them and they were delicious!
These are fabulous! I used ground turkey breast, italian seasoning (instead of the individual spices) and italian seasoned bread crumbs. They were so good. Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteThese are GREAT!! My parents came over for dinner tonight and I made these for the first time. They came out so nicely! My stepmom said "Wow! Nice job! This recipe is definitely a keeper!" I served them with green beans and a fresh salad! Bon appetit!

Just found your site and boy am I glad I did! I started WW like 6 weeks ago and was getting bored with the same old recipes. Also I live in a remote First Nations community in Northern Canada and can only get the most common ingrediants. It's so nice that most of your recipes use things I can actually get!!! This was the first one I tired and it was delish! Can't wait to try more.

When it calls for Parmesan Cheese, is it the kind you get in the shaker can or fresh grated?
ReplyDelete Hey Emily!! I love all your recipes, thank you for being so great! I especially love the wonton wrapper cupcakes... so I have a recipe request for chicken parm in wonton wrappers! maybe using layers of short-cuts style chicken breast (grilled kind) and some sauce and cheese? I'm not a fan of ground meat so I think these would really cure the craving!! thanks again.. I look forward to more great recipes!

Do you think this would work in a regular meatloaf pan? I'm very new to both WW and Cooking (shameful, I know) but want to start cooking and just don't know a lot about subsitutions, etc. Any help is greatly appreciated! Can I make this in a meatloaf form instead of muffin?

ReplyDelete This recipe and your website have inspired me to start creating some new recipes. I made these last night and my wife and I LOVED them! I think that I am going to start making more different types of main course muffins because it is perfect for portion size. I think that I am going to work on a greek cupcake meatloaf and a spanish cupcake meatloaf this week.

Has anyone frozen leftovers? Curious to know if they freeze well. Thanks! -Krista
ReplyDelete These were so good! I could only find ground turkey breast, so I used that instead ... really yummy. We had two of them for dinner with a tossed salad and it was quite filling. My toddler loved them too! I froze the rest for later (I don't think that will be a problem, Krista, have frozen meatballs before). Thanks for sharing this recipe!

what is t stand for and T, not sure which is teaspoon or tablespoon....really want to make this dish tonight...
ReplyDelete I made these tonight and the whole family loved them!!! Even my two kids who never ever like the same thing both loved them. To quote my son "Wow!" and "MMMMM I love them!!!" and even had thirds (he never does that). I think we have a keeper. I've had trouble finding weight watchers recipes that everyone likes. I've bookmarked your site. I also love the simplicity of your recipes too. I use some SkinnyTaste ones but they are SO labor intensive (30-40 minutes prep)and always use 3-4 pots and then the baking dish. I can't wait to try more from your site! :)
ReplyDeleteI have made these 3 times in the last month. They freeze well too! I brought 2 of them for lunch today, sliced them and put them on a arnolds whole wheat sandwich thin. I never thought I would like ground chicken, but its my new favorite instead of beef! So much sweeter. The recipe is awesome.
ReplyDeleteI made these the other day and they are amazing! I have cooked about ten of your recipes since last week and they were all wonderful, my boyfriend is wondering if all are meals are going to come in the form of muffins from now on haha. I have the mexican pulled pork in the crock now and cant wait for dinner! Keep the recipes coming, I follow WW points so these recipes are great!

I made these last night and they were delicious! I served them with a broccoli slaw with balsamic, for a tasty low-carb version of spaghetti and meatballs. Next time, I will mix a cup of broccoli slaw or grated carrots in with the meatball mixture, and I will serve them w/ extra marinara sauce for dipping.

Found this thru Pinterest, it sounds awesome! I'm sure this will end up on my regular dinner rotation. I'll be substituting almond meal for the breadcrumbs - it works very well in every recipe I've done this for. I'm avoiding wheat and also use almond meal in place of flour when baking.
Have a great day! - AnonymousMay 16, 2013 at 1:16 PM
Can you make these ahead of time, say the day before? Everything but the sauce and cheese maybe?
ReplyDelete Do you think it would be too dry to use already cooked chicken parmesan breasts, and just chop them up in the ingredients?
ReplyDelete- AnonymousJune 25, 2013 at 3:01 PM
Very good starter recipe. My wife and I enjoyed them but found them a bit bland. Want to add a bit more flavor without the points...next time, I will saute the onion and garlic and maybe some bell pepper. Will also add more seasonings to make different kinds (ie, cayenne/chili/cumin for Mexican themed; herbs de provence, savory, etc for Italian). Overall, a VERY good recipe...thanks for sharing!
ReplyDelete Emily,
Can you use Ground Turkey Breast in place of the chicken??

Jennifer - AnonymousSeptember 1, 2013 at 2:15 PM
I never comment on things like this, but I just had to as these are SO DELICIOUS! I used half ground sirloin, and half ground turkey, which upped the points slightly. Also subbed romano for parm, as that is what we had. And my husband--who finished making them as the baby was freaking out--mixed the tomato sauce in with the meat instead of putting it on top. They turned out so rich that I think if I do it again with the slightly fattier meat I will leave off the mozzarella - I don't think I would miss it at all. Now I just have to avoid eating a third one.
ReplyDelete - AnonymousOctober 31, 2013 at 9:08 AM
Thanks for this post Emily! These were really good! I've been making the old WW beef and stovetop stuffing mix meatloaf muffins for years (everyone still loves them) so it was fun to mix it up with this recipe. I usually make a huge batch of meatloaf muffins and freeze them. A minute or 2 in the microwave and dinner is ready on a crazy, there's nothing in the house kind of night. I didn't make enough to freeze of these this first time, but I'm sure I will next time (and there will be a next time)!

Oh and also, my food processer didn't much like serving as a meat grinder and I'm worried about killing the motor if I try it again. I googled "where can I find ground chicken" and the best answer I found was that (if they don't have it already) the meat department at your grocer will grind it for you if you ask! Just tell them how many pounds you need. One less tool to use/clean too to make this easy dish!
- TheresaOctober 31, 2013 at 9:15 AM
Just pulled my millionth pan of these muffins out of the oven. (Ok, slight exaggeration) I make them with either the suggested ground chicken OR 93% or 99% ground turkey...whatever's on sale. This recipe has literally been a life changer...meatballs had been out of my life for years due to gallstones...and when you think that two of my very favorite foods are spaghetti and meatballs, and meatball parm sandwiches, well, it was so hard for me-to say nothing of the fact that my beef meatballs were the best EVER. I have fooled quite a few people that couldn't believe they weren't beef when I made them with the turkey....I cant thank you enough. I cut these in quarters or halves and drop them into my homemade sauce and I'm in heaven. Meatballs are back, baby!

The BioLogos Book Club discussion of Francis Collins' The Language of God.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
We can understand why man, modern man in particular, would like to mop the floors and bleach the walls. We might not be able to tame reality, but we can tame our perception of reality. We intellectualize in order to feel in control.
Today's Origins News Roundup features challenging and exciting new ideas about evolutionary theory, fossil finds that add to our understanding of how carnivores and humans developed, some interesting science history from England, and more on American views of evolution.
"There was no better way, in Boyle's opinion, to 'give us so great a Wonder and Veneration' for God's wisdom, than 'by Knowing and Considering the Admirable Contrivance of the Particular Productions of that Immense Wisdom,' by which he mainly meant the exquisitely fashioned parts of animals both great and small."
This week's Origins News Roundup features highlights from a recent conference of evangelical theologians, exciting human fossil finds, tell-tale lice, and a few words from the Pope.
Where is human evolution going? Where has human evolution been? A roundup of stories from the past few weeks.
The idea that the story we know is only the very beginning raises a new question in place of Feynman's objection that Christianity is provincial. Is it presumptuous to claim that in such a grand universe, possibly with intelligent life arising in many places, the redemption and transformation of the entire cosmos starts here, on our pale blue dot?
Join astrobiologist Stephen Freeland for a look into the nature of information and the origins of life on earth. (These posts were originally published as a paper in the ASAs academic journal, PSCF, and are reprinted here with permission.)
Over the next few months, with permission from Yale University Press, BioLogos will offer edited versions of chapters from John Polkinghorne's best books, Belief in God in an Age of Science and Theology in the Context of Science, in order to help readers delve more deeply into some of his most important ideas.
The Galápagos Islands were not a distinct "center of creation," but a workshop for evolution in which an ancestral species made it to the yet uncolonized island and underwent a massive degree of speciation to adapt to the environment of the island. This is precisely what one would expect if the species of islands had arisen by evolution.
So what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.
In our current culture, we're defined by our jobs. It's having a vocation. I wanted to shift away from that. I didn't want to be a doctor first and foremost, or a scientist, but one who praises God.
BioLogos interim web editor Emily Ruppel recently traveled to Boston for the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) conference, where she took an afternoon off from lecture-going to catch up with Doug Lauffenburger, head of the biological engineering department at MIT and a member of the American Scientific Affiliation.
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."
The God who created the cosmos is the God who came to us as a child in Bethlehem.
The language of a collapsing universe is related to the end of the old covenant and the coming of the new covenant as God's "new world order."
If God himself is willing to die, particularly in such a gruesome way, then perhaps we should at least consider the possibility of God allowing the death of other creatures, too. But would this really be compatible with what we know of God through Scripture?
In this series, we reexamine the claim made by Intelligent Design proponent Michael Behe to have found a limit to "Darwinian" evolution in light of recent results from the laboratory of Richard Lenski.
Speaking in parables is indeed similar to an artist's craft. They create impressions, whole new worlds of meaning intended to turn old worlds on their heads.

Foot and ankle problems usually fall into the following categories:
- Acquired from improper footwear, physical stress, or small mechanical changes within the foot.
- Arthritic foot problems, which typically involve one or more joint.
- Congenital foot problems, which occur at birth, are generally inherited.
- Infectious foot problems, which are caused by bacterial, viral, or fungal disorders.
- Neoplastic disorders, usually called tumors, which are the result of abnormal growth of tissue and may be benign or malignant.
- Traumatic foot problems, which are associated with foot and ankle injuries.
The top foot problems are:
- Bunions - misaligned big toe joints that can become swollen and tender, causing the first joint of the big toe to slant outward, and the second joint to angle toward the other toes. Bunions tend to be hereditary, but can be aggravated by shoes that are too narrow in the forefoot and toe. Surgery is frequently performed to correct the problem.
- Hammertoe - a condition, usually stemming from muscle imbalance, in which the toe is bent in a claw-like position. It occurs most frequently with the second toe, often when a bunion slants the big toe toward and under it, but any of the other three smaller toes can be affected. Selecting shoes and socks that do not cramp the toes will alleviate aggravation.
- Heel spurs - growths of bone on the underside, forepart of the heel bone. Heel spurs occur when the plantar tendon pulls at its attachment to the heel bone. This area of the heel can later calcify to form a spur. With proper warm-up and the use of appropriate athletic shoes, strain to the ligament can be reduced.
- Ingrown nails - toenails whose corners or sides dig painfully into the skin. Ingrown toenails are frequently caused by improper nail trimming, but also by shoe pressure, injury, fungus infection, heredity and poor foot structure. Women are much more likely to have ingrown toenails than men. Ingrown nails can be prevented by trimming toenails straight across, selecting proper shoe style and size - not too tapered or shallow - and paying special attention to foot pain.
- Neuromas - enlarged benign growths of nerves, most commonly between the third and fourth toes. They are caused by tissue rubbing against and irritating the nerves. Pressure from ill-fitting shoes or abnormal bone structure can also lead to this condition. Treatments include orthoses (shoe inserts) and/or cortisone injections, but surgical removal of the growth is sometimes necessary.
- Plantar fasciitis (heel pain) - usually caused by an inflammation on the bottom of the foot. Our practice can evaluate arch pain, and may prescribe customized shoe inserts called orthoses to help alleviate the pain.
- Sesamoiditis - inflammation or rupture of the two small bones (sesamoids) under the first metatarsal bones. Proper shoe selection and orthoses can help.
- Shin splints - pain to either side of the leg bone, caused by muscle or tendon inflammation. It is commonly related to excessive foot pronation (collapsing arch), but may be related to a muscle imbalance between opposing muscle groups in the leg. Proper stretching and corrective orthoses (shoe inserts) for pronation can help prevent shin splints.
- Stress fractures -incomplete cracks in bone caused by overuse. With complete rest, stress fractures heal quickly. Extra padding in shoes helps prevent the condition. Stress fractures left untreated may become complete fractures, which require casting and immobilization.
The Achilles tendon is the largest tendon in the human body and can withstand forces of 1,000 pounds or more. It also is the most frequently ruptured tendon, usually as a result of a sports injury. Both professional and weekend athletes may suffer from Achilles tendonitis, a common overuse injury and inflammation of the tendon.
Events that can cause Achilles tendonitis may include:
- Hill running or stair climbing.
- Overuse, stemming from the natural lack of flexibility in the calf muscles.
- Rapidly increasing mileage or speed when walking, jogging, or running.
- Starting up too quickly after a layoff in exercise or sports activity, without adequately stretching and warming up the foot.
- Trauma caused by sudden and/or hard contraction of the calf muscles when putting out extra effort, such as in a sprint.
- Improper footwear and/or a tendency toward overpronation.
Achilles tendonitis often begins with mild pain after exercise or running that gradually worsens. Other symptoms include:
- Recurring localized pain, sometimes severe, along the tendon during or a few hours after running.
- Morning tenderness about an inch and a half above the point where the Achilles tendon is attached to the heel bone.
- Sluggishness in your leg.
- Mild or severe swelling.
- Stiffness that generally diminishes as the tendon warms up with use.
Treatment normally includes:
- A bandage specifically designed to restrict motion of the tendon.
- Taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication for a period of time. Note: Please consult your physician before taking any medication.
- Orthotics, which are corrective shoe inserts designed to help support the muscle and relieve stress on the tendon. Both nonprescription orthoses (such as a heel pads or over-the-counter shoe inserts) and prescribed custom orthotics may be recommended depending on the length and severity of the problem.
- Rest and switching to exercises that do not stress the tendon (such as swimming).
- Stretching and exercises to strengthen the weak muscle group in front of the leg, calf, and the upward foot flexors, as well as massage and ultrasound.
In extreme cases, surgery is performed to remove the fibrous tissue and repair any tears.
Ankle sprains are caused by an unnatural twisting or force on the ankle bones of the foot, which may result in excessive stretching or tearing of one or more ligaments on the outside of the ankle. The severity of the sprain can impact the degree of damage as well as the type and duration of treatment. If not properly treated, ankle sprains may develop into long-term problems.
Primary symptoms of ankle sprains are pain following a twist or injury, swelling, and bruising.
Treatment includes resting and elevating the ankle and applying ice to reduce swelling. Compressive bandages also may be used to immobilize and support the injury during healing. Serious ankle sprains, particularly among competitive athletes, may require surgery to repair and tighten the damaged ligaments.
To prevent ankle sprains, try to maintain strength, balance, and flexibility in the foot and ankle through exercise and stretching, and wearing well-fitted shoes.
Flat feet are a common condition of the foot structure. In infants and toddlers, prior to walking, the longitudinal arch is not developed and flat feet are normal. Most feet are flexible and an arch appears when children begin standing on their toes. The arch continues to develop throughout childhood, and by adulthood most people have developed normal arches.
Flat feet are generally associated with pronation, a leaning inward of the ankle bones toward the center line. Shoes of children who pronate, when placed side by side, will lean toward each other (after they have been worn long enough for the foot position to remodel their shape).
Many people with flat feet do not experience pain or other problems. When pain in the foot, ankle, or lower leg does occur, especially in children, the feet should be evaluated.
Painful progressive flatfoot, otherwise known as tibialis posterior tendonitis or adult-acquired flatfoot, refers to inflammation of the tendon of the tibialis posterior. This condition arises when the tendon becomes inflamed, stretched, or torn. Left untreated, it may lead to severe disability and chronic pain. People are predisposed to tibialis posterior tendonitis if they have flat feet or an abnormal attachment of the tendon to the bones in the midfoot.
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, icing, physical therapy, supportive taping, bracing, and orthotics are common treatments for painful progressive flatfoot. Note: Please consult your physician before taking any medications. In some cases, a surgery may need to be performed to repair a torn or damaged tendon and restore normal function. In the most severe cases, surgery on the midfoot bones may be necessary to treat the associated flatfoot condition.
Nearly one-fourth of all the bones in your body are in your feet. A broken (fractured) bone in your forefoot or in one of your toes is often painful, but rarely disabling. Most of the time, these injuries heal without operative treatment.
There are two types of foot fractures: stress fractures and general bone fractures. Stress fractures usually occur in the bones of the forefoot extending from the toes to the middle of the foot. Stress fractures are like tiny cracks in the bone surface. They can happen with sudden increases in exercise (such as running or walking for longer distances or times), improper training techniques, or a change in surfaces.
Most other types of fractures extend through the bone, and are called bone fractures. They may be stable, in which there is no shift in bone alignment, or displaced, in which the bone ends no longer line up properly. Bone fractures usually result from trauma, such as dropping a heavy object on your foot, or from a twisting injury. If the fractured bone does not break through the skin, it is called a closed fracture. If the fracture does break through the skin, it is called an open fracture.
Because of the complex structures in the foot, there are some other, more specific types of fractures that can occur. For example, the fifth metatarsal, known as the little or pinky toe, is susceptible to a variety of different fractures. The relationship between the ankle and the foot can be compromised by an ankle-twisting injury, which may tear the tendon that attaches to this bone and pull a small piece of the bone away. A more serious injury in the same area is known as a Jones fracture, which occurs near the base of the bone and disrupts its blood supply. This injury may take longer to heal or require surgery.
Common symptoms for any type of foot fracture includes pain, swelling, and sometimes bruising. Be sure to seek medical attention for any suspected foot fracture.
Fungal nails refers to any number of fungal nail infections that can occur on the foot. Since fungal nails are usually more resistant and more difficult to treat than Athlete's Foot, topical or oral antifungal medications may be prescribed. Note: Please consult a physician before taking any medications. Permanent nail removal is another possible form of treatment for tenacious fungal nails.
Preventing Fungal Nail Infections
After a fungal nail infection has cleared up, take steps to prevent the infection from recurring. Keeping fungi at bay will help prevent a fungal infection of the skin from reinfecting the nail. Before bed, thoroughly wash and dry your feet, and apply a nonprescription antifungalantifungal cream to the entire foot from the ankle down. Use the cream every night, then gradually apply it less often. Keep your feet dry. Dry feet are less likely to become infected. Apply powder to your dry feet after you take a shower or bath.
Other suggestions for preventing fungal nails include:
- Don't share nail clippers or nail files with others.
- Don't share shoes or socks with others.
- Try not to injure your nail, such as by cutting it too short (trauma to the nail may lead to infections).
- Wear dry cotton socks and change them two or three times a day if necessary.
- Wear dry shoes that allow air to circulate around your feet (tight, enclosed, moist shoes contribute to fungal toenail infections).
- Wear shower sandals or shower shoes when you are at a public pool or shower.
Follow basic foot care guidelines and, more than likely, you can head off most common foot fungus problems.
Sesamoids are small bones that are connected only to tendons or are embedded in muscle. This structure appears in only a few places in the human body, one of which is the foot. Two very small sesamoids (about the size of a kernel of corn) are found in the underside of the forefoot near the big toe—one on the outer side of the foot and the other closer to the middle of the foot. Sesamoids provide a smooth surface over which the tendons slide, thus increasing the ability of the tendons to transmit muscle forces. In the foot, sesamoids assist with weight-bearing and help elevate the bones of the big toe.
Like other bones, sesamoids can fracture. Additionally, the tendons surrounding the sesamoids can become irritated or inflamed, which is called sesamoiditis and is a form of tendonitis. Sesamoiditis is a common condition among ballet dancers, runners, and baseball catchers because of the pressures placed on their feet.
Symptoms include:
- Pain under the big toe or on the ball of the foot.
- Swelling and bruising.
- Difficulty and pain in bending and straightening the big toe.
Surgery is usually not required to treat sesamoiditis. Treatments generally include:
- Discontinuation of the activity causing the pain and inflammation.
- Over-the-counter pain medications and anti-inflammatories, such as ibuprofen and aspirin. Note: Please consult your physician before taking any medications.
- Icing the sole of the foot.
- Wearing shoes that are soft-soled and low-heeled.
- Using cushioning in shoes to relieve stress.
- Injection of a steroidal medication to reduce swelling.
If symptoms persist, you may need to wear a removable brace on the leg for 4 - 6 weeks to give the inflammation time to subside and the bones to heal.

Dow Jones Average Falls Dramatically, Again
NEW YORK (AP) — There was no let-up in the flight from stocks and bonds Thursday, and the Dow Jones industrial average fell more than 300 points. The Dow was down 338 points, or 1.9 percent, to 14,875. The Nasdaq composite fell 72 points, or 2.1 percent, to 3,369.
A day after the Federal Reserve roiled U.S financial markets when it said it could step back from its aggressive economic stimulus program later this year, financial markets continued to slide. A slowdown in Chinese manufacturing added to Wall Street's worries.
A Fed policy statement and comments from Chairman Ben Bernanke started the selling in stocks and bonds Wednesday.
Bernanke said the Fed expects to scale back its massive bond-buying program later this year and end it entirely by mid-2014 if the economy continues to improve.
The bank has been buying $85 billion a month in Treasury and mortgage bonds, a program that has kept borrowing costs near historic lows for consumers and business. It has also helped boost the stock market.

Last Update on March 07, 2014 18:27 GMT
WASHINGTON (AP) -- U.S. hiring improved in February from the previous two months despite a blast of wintry weather, likely renewing hopes that growth will accelerate this year.
The Labor Department says employers added 175,000 jobs last month, up from just 129,000 in January, which was revised up from 113,000.
The unemployment rate rose to 6.7 percent from a five-year low 6.6 percent. More Americans started looking for work but didn't find jobs. That's still an encouraging sign because more job hunters suggest that people were more optimistic about their prospects.
The figures were a welcome surprise after recent economic reports showed that harsh weather closed factories, lowered auto sales, and caused existing-home sales to plummet.
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The U.S. trade deficit widened slightly in January as a rise in imports of oil and other foreign goods offset a solid increase in exports.
The Commerce Department says the trade deficit increased to $39.1 billion, up 0.3 percent from December's revised $39 billion deficit.
Exports climbed 0.6 percent to $192.8 billion, led by increased sales of U.S.-made machinery, aircraft and medical equipment. Imports also rose 0.6 percent to $231.6 billion, reflecting a 9 percent jump in imports of petroleum. Imports of food and machinery also rose.
The trade deficit is the difference between imports and exports. A higher trade deficit acts as a drag on economic growth because it means U.S. companies are making less overseas then their foreign competitors are earning in U.S. sales.
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) -- L.L. Bean says it had a record year for profits and saw revenue growth of 3 percent.
CEO Chris McCormick told workers on Friday that after four consecutive years of growth, the Maine-based retailer is ready to accelerate expansion plans. He says the privately held company plans its largest single-year capital investment and will spend an additional $100 million on website changes, retail expansion and business systems.
The company's performance beat the industry average.
L.L. Bean's board was happy enough with the revenue gain to authorize an 8 percent bonus for full-time workers. That's the biggest bonus since 2005.
In a memo to Bean's 5,100 full- and part-time workers, McCormick said the company has been conservative for the past few years and is now ready to "grab market share."
NEW YORK (AP) -- Shares of Coupons.com are close to doubling in their first day of trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
The stock gained $14.40, or 90 percent, to $30.40 in morning trading.
Coupons.com Inc. delivers digital coupons and coupon codes to consumers. It priced its initial public offering of 10.5 million shares at $16 per share. The company had initially expected to offer 10 million shares and expected them to be priced between $12 and $14 per share.
The Mountain View, Calif., company raised $168 million from the IPO.
Coupons.com had 2013 revenue of $167.9 million, up from $112.1 million in the prior year.
The stock is trading under the "COUP" ticker symbol.
DETROIT (AP) -- The federal government is ordering child seat maker Graco to explain why it didn't include 1.8 million infant seats in a recall for faulty buckles.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says Graco has until March 20 to explain why last month's recall of 3.8 million child seats didn't include infant seats, which have the same buckles that can get stuck on the child seats.
Graco has said the child seat buckles get stuck because children drop food or drinks on them. It is sending replacement buckles to owners for free. It will also send replacement buckles for infant seats if owners request them.
NHTSA says Graco will face fines of $7,000 per day if its response is late or incomplete.
Graco said Friday it will comply with the request for an explanation.
TRENTON, N.J. (AP) -- A federal audit finds New Jersey did nothing wrong when it used a no-bid contract to hire a firm to clean up debris left behind by Superstorm Sandy in 2012.
But the U.S. Homeland Security Department says that towns that continued to use the firm for more than 60 days without putting the work out to bid might not be fully reimbursed by the federal government.
The contract and the firm, Deerfield Beach, Fla.-based AshBritt, drew the ire of lawmakers months after Sandy struck. That marked the first major political debate over how Gov. Chris Christie's administration responded to Sandy.
The audit was made public Thursday by Christie's office.
Christie's office criticized Democrats and the media for treating the contract as a scandal.
MIAMI (AP) -- A former law partner of convicted Ponzi schemer Scott Rothstein has been charged with conspiring to violate federal campaign contribution laws.
Court records show charges were filed Friday against Russell Adler, who was a principal in the now-defunct Fort Lauderdale law firm Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler. The firm was liquidated after Rothstein's $1.2 billion Ponzi scheme was exposed in fall 2009.
Adler is charged with helping orchestrate thousands of dollars in bundled contributions from the firm's employees and attorneys to John McCain's 2008 campaign for president and Charlie Crist's run for the U.S. Senate. The contributions were illegally reimbursed by the law firm.
There is no indication that McCain or Crist knew of the illegal scheme. Adler has consistently denied wrongdoing.
Rothstein is serving a 50-year prison sentence.
Company confirms feds investigate visa use
An international tech consulting firm confirms the federal government is investigating its use of U.S. work visas.
A Mu Sigma spokeswoman told The Associated Press authorities asked the company to provide information related to its visas, and the company is cooperating fully.
Privately held Mu Sigma is headquartered in Illinois. CEO Dhiraj Rajaram also runs the company from offices in India.
Federal records show the company has brought in nearly 150 H-1B temporary workers since 2009. The Justice Department did not immediately respond to requests for comments.
The company declined to clarify whether the investigation is targeting H-1B or business visas.
Last year, tech giant Infosys settled a federal case for $34 million over allegations it used business visas to bring in temporary workers hired out for consulting work.
NEW YORK (AP) -- Coca-Cola CEO Muhtar Kent's pay fell 16 percent last year because his performance-based bonus took a hit.
Muhtar Kent's pay package was worth $18.2 million for 2013, according to a regulatory filing made with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday. That's down from the $21.6 million he earned the previous year.
The decline was primarily the result of a lower performance-based bonus, which fell to $2.2 million, from $6 million the previous year. That was the result of lower sales volume growth of just 2 percent for the year, compared with 4 percent the previous year.
A new cap was also put into place for the bonus, based on feedback from shareholders.
The AP's calculation counts salary, bonuses, perks, stock and options awarded to the executive during the year.

Charlie Parker
Charlie Parker
One of a handful of musicians who can be said to have permanently changed jazz, Charlie Parker was arguably the greatest saxophonist of all time. He could play remarkably fast lines that, if slowed down to half speed, would reveal that every note made sense. "Bird," along with his contemporaries Dizzy Gillespie and Bud Powell, is considered a founder of bebop; in reality he was an intuitive player who simply was expressing himself. Rather than basing his improvisations closely on the melody as was done in swing, he was a master of chordal improvising, creating new melodies that were based on the structure of a song. In fact, Bird wrote several future standards (such as "Anthropology," "Ornithology," "Scrapple from the Apple," and "Ko Ko," along with such blues numbers as "Now's the Time" and "Parker's Mood") that "borrowed" and modernized the chord structures of older tunes. Parker's remarkable technique, fairly original sound, and ability to come up with harmonically advanced phrases that could be both logical and whimsical were highly influential. By 1950, it was impossible to play "modern jazz" with credibility without closely studying Charlie Parker.
