After what many considered a disappointing sophomore season, Revenge's new showrunner is taking the show back to basics.
"Last season was very much about destiny, but it got pulled into so many different worlds and got so big and spectacular. So our goal this year is to really take a breath, slow it down and catch up with our characters where they are from where the season ended," executive producer Sunil Nayar tells TVGuide.com. "We're bringing everything back to the world of the Hamptons, and [we] really embrace the lush romance and the intrigue that is the Hamptons."

Perhaps attempting to deflect the flak that producers took for not killing off a series regular in any of its murder mysteries, ABC's Revenge ended Season 2 by killing poor Declan (Connor Paolo) after an explosion at the Grayson Global offices.
Whose days are numbered on Revenge? Viewers will find out by the end of Sunday's two-hour season finale.
"For the first time, one of our core cast members will not survive the season," executive producer Mike Kelley tells TVGuide.com.
As the season winds down, The Initiative is kicking its plan into high gear, staging a city-wide blackout that signals that something major is about to go down. But who is the group's target? And will the death be by its hands? Or will the victim — and the killer — come as a complete surprise? We rank each of the main cast members' odds for demise.

@Zak-Lee-Ferguson I respect your opinion, but couldnt find anything in this film

Yes its unoriginal, another alien invasion movie were america is under attack but we already knew that sh*t its call Battle LA what do you think you were going to see, so dont be a dick about it cuz am not and i dont even live in the USA.
Not a bad movie lots of action the acting was ok and yes the plot was some what predictable but i was very entertained by the movie, the CGI was alright but it could of been better, the aliens technology were not so advanced so it did gave us humans a fighting changes which was very cool unlike that piece of sh*t movie skyline which was totally pointless, and all that sh*t about the camera shaking like in the cloverfield movie crap it was fine, so If your looking for a action flick with lots of explosion will i recommend it, its not the best movie ive seen this year and i know it wont be but its not the worst an ok watchable movie.

I enjoy patchwork and quilting. I began making quilts in 1978 when I signed up for a beginning quilting class. I taught that class that following year and have been teaching others to make quilts ever since. For the past 20 years, I have been teaching my signature method, Foundation Paper Piecing, to quilters throughout the world. This has earned me the title, the Queen of Paper Piecing.

Doctors urged to be more mindful of costs of procedures they order
Chicago Tribune, August 30, 2012
Vineet Arora, an assistant dean and associate professor of medicine at University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Medicine is part of small but growing movement of doctors and medical students who are trying to add "do no financial harm" to the Hippocratic oath taken by doctors and other medical personnel. According to a 2005 Harvard study, medical bills are the No. 1 cause of bankruptcy in the U.S. Yet, of the $2.6 trillion spent each year on health costs, about 30 percent of that is not actually helping patients, and in some cases hurts them, said Steven Weinberger, CEO and executive vice president of the American College of Physicians.

China flexes muscles in mining deal
For $5 billion, China Minmetals Corp. is on the verge of a large foreign acquisition. It is Canadian mining concern Noranda Inc.
The Wall Street Journal reported the potential deal signals the ambition China has in parlaying its economic strength into major takeovers on the international stage.
State-owned China Minmetals popped up as a rumored suitor for Noranda during the summer. Noranda put itself up for sale earlier this year, spurred by 42% shareholder Brascan Corp., a Toronto power and real estate conglomerate, seeking to exit the mining industry.
The Chinese company has a fifty-year history, and it said it had revenue of $11.7 billion last year. In recent years, it has grown beyond its core metals-trading operations by focusing more on the production of copper, aluminum, nickel, and other metals, the company said. China Minmetals said it handled 40% of the copper and half of the alumina imported into China last year.
China Minmetals is "well positioned in the world's largest and fastest-growing metals market. Together with Noranda's management, expertise, technology and worldwide copper, nickel, and zinc operations, we have the potential to play an even bigger role in the global base metals industry," said the company's president, Miao Gengshu.
China Minmetals is the country's second-largest firm in terms of overseas operations, with 44 subsidiaries in 17 countries and regions. The company's Web site lists some interests quite removed from metals, including the Holiday Inn hotel in Wilmington, Del. It plans to create a chain of Holiday Inn hotels.
Noranda is a pillar of the Canadian mining industry, with roots going back seventy-five years. It is a major producer of copper, nickel, zinc, and aluminum, with major mines in Canada, Chile, and elsewhere and a 59% stake in Toronto nickel producer Falconbridge Ltd.
China over the years has made a series of acquisitions of natural-resource operations outside its borders, including investments in U.S. timber, natural gas in Australia, phosphate deposits in Florida, and some oil fields, said Nicholas Lardy, an expert on China's economy with the Institute for International Economics in Washington. But China's growth is set to cool in coming years after years of blistering expansion, which could lead to softer metals prices and mean the state-owned company "may be buying [Noranda] at a local high," Lardy said.

Attorneys' Fee Awards in Mass Tort Litigation
Some recent attorneys' fees awards illustrate that specialized mass tort litigation is becoming ever more entrepreneurial and rewarding when claims succeed in areas such as product liability litigation. Much of the history of teh financing of contingent fee claims is very well explained by Professor Stephen C. Yeazell of UCLA in his 2001 article, "Re-Financing Civil Litigation," 51 DePaul Law Review 183 (2001). I highly recommend the article to anyone interested in understanding the economics of mass tort litigation. The article was part of a DePaul Law School symposium organized through a $ 1 million gift from Robert Clifford, one of Chicago's most-respected plaintiff's lawyers. One might also consider Prof. Yeazell's related online lecture apparently published as an honor by UCLA for distinguished work by its professors.
The recent examples? "Fen-phen" litigation produced a most recent award of $ 412 million fee award for several plaintiff's firms. The Point of Law authors note that all of the awards work out to about $1,000 per hour based on hours reported to have been billed. The Mass Tort Litigation blog authors also noted the award and provide cites for some of the key rulings in that litigation.
The Florida phase of the tobacco litigation recently produced a $ 218 million fee award for plaintiff's counsel. The award is described as providing a 5x multiplier for the risks undertaken by plaintiff's counsel, Stanley and Susan Rosenblatt. According to the news article, the trial judge who awarded the fees took pains to praise the efforts of plaintiff's counsel, saying:
''I think this is one shining example of an effort that was undertaken with diligence and for an amount of time that would have destroyed most people,'' Miller said, according to a hearing transcript. The Rosenblatts' performance is ``an example of the kind of lawyering that is done here in South Florida.''

Sorry about the weird-behaving ad
Some of you guys are experiencing a T-Mobile ad that's hovering in the middle of the page, where it's not supposed to be. There's a problem with the ad and we're not sure why it's displaying like that, but if you're getting it, just hit refresh. The ad goes away and we get one more page view. It's a win win situation. Plus every time you look at the site my muscles get a little bit bigger, so really it's win win win.
Sorry for the delay on darkening up the site. The vibe we got from you guys was that having to click a button was too annoying and most of you would rather the site just default to black. As such, we decided to just scrap the white altogether. And if we were going to only have ... / Continue →
We thought maybe because there was less white your eyes would be able to withstand the brightness of your monitors, but apparently your corneas are even thinner than we imagined. Well fear not, cave-dwelling readers, we're working on a black option which we'll hopefully have ro... / Continue →
We've gotten a few people mentioning that they've received a virus warning when visiting the site today. We had our tech guys take a look at the problem (ie: they poked the servers with a stick for about an hour) and long story short, we're not entirely sure why it happened, but ... / Continue →

Accelerator Update for February 9, 2009 - February 11, 2009 |
Monday Feb 9 The day shift began with Operations monitoring the Tevatron (TeV) store 6787 (154.75E30) and the Recycler stash (157.5E10), with the Antiproton Source stacking (29.0E10), with the Linac, Booster, and Main Injector (MI) operating normally, with the MiniBooNE and NuMI experiments taking beam, and with the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) and D-Zero (D0) experiments using the colliding beams. Pbar experts began a 10-minute target scan study around 9:55 AM. A MI expert began a longitudinal bunch measurement study at 10:19 AM. Some problems delayed this study for about 45 minutes. At 10:42 AM, the TeV sector C4 air compressor tripped off. Operators responded and managed to get it running before the store was lost. At 2:50 PM, the P1 transfer line beam permit tripped off when the output of a power supply (I:V714) went too high. Everything reset. At 3:10 PM, the TeV sector C4 air compressor tripped off again. Operators managed to restart it before the store was lost. Experts were searching for the cause of the trips. They added a spare compressor. Operations reported at 4 PM that the Recycler had stashed antiprotons eight times during the day shift. Operations terminated store 6787 at 4:05 PM. Operations prepared D0 for a one-hour access at 4:24 PM. Operations put the TeV through a wet squeeze at 5:57 PM. Operations put the TeV into shot setup at 6:50 PM. At 7:41 PM, Operations reported a LCW leak. Operators checked the service buildings; around 7:53 PM they discovered an Accumulator power supply (A:LQ) had a leaking hose. Operations called in an expert. Operations established store 6789 at 8:15 PM with an initial luminosity of 320.88E30. Operations reported at 9:47 PM that the A:LQ power supply was repaired. Pbar resumed stacking at 10 PM. At 11:23 PM, A:LQ failed to return to its nominal position. Operators recycled the busses. Pbar resumed stacking at 11:32 PM. Operations reported at midnight that the Recycler had stashed four times during the evening shift. Tuesday Feb 10 The midnight shift began with Operations monitoring store 6789 (172.18E30) and the stash (50.9E10), with Pbar stacking (18.1E10), and with NuMI and MiniBooNE taking beam. At 4:37 AM, A:LQ tripped off due to another LCW leak. Operations called in an expert. Operations put Pbar into standby mode at 4:39 AM. A Pbar power supply expert reported at 6:50 AM that he had A:LQ back online. Pbar resumed stacking at 7:09 AM. Around 8 AM, the Tevatron Electron Lens (TEL1) tripped off when the Linac LCW supply and return pressures began oscillating. Operations contacted a CUB expert. Operations reported at 8:04 AM that the Recycler had stashed four times during the midnight shift. At 8:57 AM, Booster RF stations BRF6, 7, and 13 all tripped off. They were reset. A MI expert began a 90-minute study at 9:49 AM. At 10:58 AM, TEL1 tripped off on a vacuum indication. It reset. Mechanical group experts reported at 11:18 AM that they had replaced the overload heaters for the TeV sector C4 air compressors. At 11:49 AM, BRF7 tripped off. An RF expert investigated and said something "funny" was happening in the East Gallery. Operations lowered Booster intensities. A Booster expert began tuning around 12:05 PM. At 12:31 PM, BRF5 began tripping off due to sparking. Operations terminated store 6789 at 2:39 PM. Operations prepared the TeV for a proton only study at 2:59 PM. Operations reported at 3.54 PM that the Recycler had stashed seven times during the day shift. At 4:57 PM, BRF5 tripped off two times. It reset. Operations put the TeV through a wet squeeze at 5:45 PM. Operations put the TeV into shot setup at 6:28 PM. At 6:37 PM, the P2 transfer line beam permit tripped off due to a power supply (HTF13) going out of tolerance. Everything reset. At 6:44 PM, the TeV sector C4 air compressor tripped off. Operators reset it. Operations established store 6792 at 7:44 PM with an initial luminosity or 314.37E30. At 9:28 PM, the P1 transfer line beam permit tripped off due to V714 going out of tolerance. Everything reset. At 9:57 PM, a Pbar Debuncher septum (D:ESEPV) tripped off. It reset. At 10:42 PM, Operations reported that that a Pbar Debuncher kicker (D:EKIK) had stopped firing. Operators investigated and found its ramp was missing. Around 11 PM, Operations reported the transformer that powered the Cross Gallery, MCR, the Computer Room, and the MAC room had failed – no power to these areas. The TeV quenched at six houses: A4, B1, C4, D1, B3, and C2. Store 6792 was lost. The stash was lost. Pbar managed to hold on to a small stack. At 11:18 PM, smoke was observed in the TeV sector B3 area. The Fire Department and operators investigated. Later, it was discovered that the dump switches for the sectors B3 and C2 service buildings had failed. At 11:45 PM, the UPS in the Computer Room started to fail. The MCR lost controls and readbacks for the complex. Wednesday Feb 11 The midnight shift began with the complex down due to a power failure. Investigation and recovery efforts began. The electronic logbook was down. The following is a report on machine statuses near the end of the shift, ~8 AM.
The Plans for Wednesday Power was restored to the Cross Gallery and other areas by a large generator. There is a spare transformer in the Proton experimental area, but it must be checked out before it's moved. The plans for today are to investigate, recover what can be recovered, and repair damage. |

This year, besides costarring in Ted, the Seth MacFarlane-helmed raunchy summer blockbuster, Mila Kunis was also dubbed the sexiest woman alive by Esquire magazine. With just one look at this pint-sized 29-year-old beauty, it's no surprise that she's been honored with such a title. And, on the heels of that honor, Christian Dior recently named Mila the face of one of its Spring fashion campaigns. Needless to say, Meg Griffin has had a hell of a year.

Morningside College mission team to spend spring break helping tornado-ravaged Alabama towns
A mission team of approximately 20 Morningside College students and staff members will spend spring break repairing and rebuilding homes in tornado-ravaged north Alabama.
The mission team will be working in Phil Campbell and Hackleburg, Ala.- towns that were heavily damaged by EF-5 tornadoes in April of 2011.
"We will be putting on roofs, putting up drywall, installing windows and doors- whatever is necessary in the rebuilding of homes," said the Rev. Kathy Martin, chaplain and director of church relations at Morningside College, who is leading the trip.
The students and staff members will leave Sioux City at 6:30 a.m. on Saturday, Mar. 3, for Tuscumbia, Ala., where they will be staying. They will return to Sioux City on Sunday, March 11. They are working through the North Alabama Disaster Recovery Ministry of the United Methodist Church and Volunteers in Mission program.
Morningside College Campus Ministries organized six mission trips between 2006 and 2010 to help those affected by Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita. It also has organized mission trips to respond to flooding within our own region, and last year organized a trip to Shiprock, N.M., reaching out to the Navajo peoples through the Four Corners Native American Ministry.

Bristol-Myers 4Q net rises 9 percent on cost cuts
NEW YORK - Drugmaker Bristol-Myers Squibb Inc. said Thursday that its fourth-quarter profit rose 8.6 percent, as reduced production and marketing costs and a big tax benefit offset a plunge in Plavix sales due to generic competition. Still, it beat Wall Street's expectations.
New York-based Bristol-Myers said its net income was $925 million, or 56 cents per share, up from $852 million, or 50 cents per share, a year earlier.
Excluding several one-time items totaling 9 cents per share, Bristol-Myers would have made $777 million, or 47 cents per share. That beat the 42 cents expected by analysts surveyed by research provider FactSet.
Revenue fell 23 percent, to $4.19 billion from $5.45 billion, as increasing generic competition wiped out virtually all sales of blood thinner Plavix. The pill for preventing heart attacks and strokes had been the second-bestselling drug in the world. Analysts had expected revenue of $4.13 billion.
In premarket trading, Bristol-Myers shares fell 30 cents to $34.60.
Plavix, which Bristol-Myers jointly markets with partner Sanofi SA of France, got U.S. generic competition in May. By the fourth quarter, Bristol's revenue from Plavix sales in the U.S. plunged 99 percent, to just $20 million, and its total Plavix revenue was down 97 percent to $49 million - from $1.67 billion in 2011's fourth quarter.
Blood pressure drugs Avapro and Avalide, which Bristol also jointly markets with Sanofi, also are being squashed by generic competition that began last March. Bristol's total revenue from them fell 57 percent to $84 million.
The patent expirations allowed Bristol-Myers to sharply cut costs for production, marketing and advertising. The company also got a significant boost in the latest quarter from a $411 million income tax benefit, a big swing from its $363 million tax bill at year earlier.
A half-dozen drugs, mostly newer products, posted double-digit sales increases in the fourth quarter, but they can't begin to make up for the lost Plavix and Avapro revenue.
Abilify, for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, had sales jump 11 percent to $819 million, while sales of hepatitis B drug Baraclude rose 13 percent to $360 million. Rheumatoid arthritis drug Orencia's sales rose 26 percent to $325 million and sales jumped 47 percent to $211 million for breakthrough melanoma drug Yervoy.

Tumors of cartilaginous origin represent one of the largest categories of skeletal neoplasms. It is a heterogeneous group of benign and malignant tumors composed either of pure cartilage or cartilage in combination with various amounts of myxoid, fibrous, or osseous tissue. Conventional radiography remains instrumental in the diagnosis of cartilaginous and other primary skeletal neoplasms. It provides the best opportunity to characterize the lesion and gives an initial assessment of tumor aggressiveness, size, and extent. In addition, computed tomography (CT) may detect subtle calcifications not visible on plain radiographs, and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging provides definitive local staging. MR's multiplanar imaging capability and superior soft-tissue contrast, compared to CT, allows for accurate evaluation of tumor invasion into adjacent muscles and neurovascular bundles. The extent of bone marrow involvement also is more reliably identified with MR than CT.
Considerable overlap exists in the MR appearance of histologically unrelated lesions. Most malignant tumors demonstrate low to intermediate signal intensity on T1-weighted (T1W) images, high signal intensity on T2-weighted (T2W) images, and marked enhancement following intravenous injection of gadolinium. Benign and low grade malignant tumors containing hyaline cartilage have a similar pattern but demonstrate unique characteristics that easily distinguish them from non-hyaline cartilage-containing tumors.1 This article will review basic cartilage biology and the MR imaging characteristics of the most common benign and malignant neoplasms that contain hyaline cartilage.
Cartilage biology
A basic knowledge of the different types and distribution of cartilage within the musculoskeletal system provides an insight into the imaging characteristics and location of hyaline cartilage-containing tumors. Hyaline cartilage and fibrocartilage are the two basic types found in the musculoskeletal system. They both are connective tissue of mesenchymal origin, characterized by a firm consistency and hypovascularity. Fibrocartilage is the primary constituent of synchondroses, symphyses, and menisci. Hyaline cartilage is a critical component of skeletogenesis; it also is found in physes, and it lines the articular surface of synovial joints.
The vast majority of the skeleton passes through an intermediate cartilage step during formation, a process termed enchondral ossification. The clavicle, mandible, and craniofacial bones are exceptions, as these undergo a different process called intramembranous ossification. The distribution of hyaline cartilage-containing tumors is greatly influenced by the process of ossification, with most lesions occurring in bones that are formed through enchondral ossification.
The structural differences between hyaline and fibrocartilage account for their different appearance on MR imaging. Compared to fibrocartilage, hyaline cartilage contains less collagen and more proteoglycan. The higher proteoglycan content results in higher water content. Fibrocartilage contains more collagen and less proteoglycan, therefore containing less water. On T2W images, hyaline cartilage characteristically demonstrates homogeneous increased signal intensity while fibrocartilage shows decreased signal intensity. Within tumors, hyaline cartilage grows in a lobular pattern, with or without fibrous septa, that can easily be seen on MR imaging. It may contain rings, arcs, or punctate areas of calcification that are detectable on conventional radiography, tomography, CT, or MR imaging.
Hyaline cartilage-containing tumors include osteochondroma, enchondroma, parosteal chondroma, low grade chondrosarcoma, chondroid chordoma, and chondroblastic osteosarcoma. Myxoid and chondroid are other types of cartilage encountered in these neoplasms. Myxoid cartilage is a variant of hyaline cartilage, contains prominent cystic cavities, and can be seen in some hyaline cartilage-containing tumors including chondrosarcoma, enchondroma, and parosteal chondroma. Chondroid refers to a primitive form of fibrocartilage and is typically associated with chondro-blastoma, chondromyxoid fibroma, mesenchymal chondrosarcoma, and certain osteosarcomas.
Hyaline cartilage-containing tumors
Osteochondroma-Osteochondromas are the most common benign cartilage-containing tumor.2,3 These heterogeneous tumors are composed of trabecular bone and marrow, are surrounded by a thin cortex, and are covered by a hyaline cartilage cap over the outer surface. The thickness of the hyaline cartilage is variable and dependent upon the degree of skeletal maturation and malignant transformation. Osteochondromas typically are located in the metaphyseal region of long bones and are connected to the host bone by either a broad base (sessile) or a narrow stalk (pedunculated). Osteochondromas most likely arise at the physeal periphery from reorientation of a physeal fragment, congenital perichondral deficiency or, rarely, following radiation.3,5
Osteochondromas may be discovered as an incidental finding or may present with nonspecific signs and symptoms, including a mass with or without pain, skeletal deformity, or pain caused by compression of adjacent neurologic structures. Complications include fracture through the osteochondroma, repetitive trauma to adjacent structures, and malignant transformation. The risk of malignant transformation of an isolated osteochondroma is approximately 1%. Malignancy should be suspected if there is growth of the osteochondroma after skeletal maturity or the thickness of the hyaline cartilage cap exceeds 2 to 3 cm. Malignant transformation typically results in low grade chondrosarcomas, although higher grade lesions are possible.6 If malignant transformation occurs, it usually is present in lytic regions or areas of bulky unmineralized cartilage.
Diagnosis of osteochondroma can be readily made with conventional radiography and rests upon demonstrating continuity of the host bone marrow cavity and cortex with that of the osteochondroma. The lesion can easily be identified as arising from the surface of bone pointing away from an adjacent joint. The lobular growth pattern of hyaline cartilage is recognized by the bulbous or lobular gross morphologic appearance to the end of the osteochondroma. However, the extent and pattern of mineralization within the hyaline cartilage can be overlooked at MR, though it is well demonstrated on CT. This degree of mineralization varies with cap thickness, and MR has been found to be superior in assessment of hyaline cartilage cap thickness and demonstration of the relationship of adjacent structures (figure 1). The cap typically is only several millimeters thick and will demonstrate low to intermediate signal intensity on T1W images, high signal intensity on T2W images, and no
or slight peripheral enhancement following intravenous injection of gadolinium.7 Both MR and CT display equally well the continuity of the osteochondroma marrow and cortex with that of the parent bone.
The risk of malignant transformation is higher in patients with hereditary multiple osteochondromatosis (15 to 20%). This disorder is transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait and results in multiple sessile and pedunculated osteochondromas distributed in a bilateral symmetric pattern. The polyostotic metaphyseal involvement can result in marked growth disturbances.
Enchondroma-Enchondromas are the second most common cartilage-containing neoplasms and, unlike osteochondromas, are composed of pure hyaline cartilage.2,3 They are benign, usually solitary intramedullary tumors which most likely arise from the physis as dysplastic, hypercellular hyaline cartilage nodules.8 Enchondromas even-tually separate themselves from the physis and reside within the metaphysis. This process may be of variable duration, resulting in enchondromas of variable size. A widespread, long-standing process could explain the abnormalities encountered in Ollier's disease, while a limited, localized process would result in a solitary enchondroma.
Enchondromas often are discovered incidentally or following pathologic fracture. Although pain associated with long bone enchondromas may be due to secondary chondrosarcoma, it must be distinguished from a pathologic fracture or adjacent joint or soft-tissue abnormality. Malignant transformation is a more worrisome complication of enchondroma. The age of the patient and duration of symptoms are important clues in determining the likelihood of malignant transformation. An adult patient with gradually increasing pain over a long duration in the region of a presumed enchondroma should be seriously considered to have a possible chondrosarcoma.
The distribution and radiographic appearance of enchondromas have been well described. They typically are centrally located within the medullary canal and have a predilection for the short tubular bones, proximal femur, and proximal humerus. Enchondromas usually are metaphyseal in location and demonstrate geographic destruction with a lobulated contour. There may be a variable amount of mineralization present, which would appear as small, punctate ring or arc-like densities and reflect dystrophic calcifications within small cartilage nodules or fragments of lamellar bone that encase the nodules. Focal areas of cortical endosteal scalloping also may be present. If the enchondroma arises within a small tubular bone (such as the phalanx, rib, or fibula), the bone may show expansion due to its small size.
MR of enchondroma shows low to intermediate signal intensity on T1W and prominent areas of high signal intensity on T2W images. CT and MR both are superior to conventional radiography for visualizing cortical destruction and associated soft-tissue mass, both ominous signs that indicate malignant transformation. Matrix calcifications identified on MR imaging are depicted as low signal intensity foci and are more apparent on gradient echo sequences. Normal marrow fat may be present interspersed between the cartilage nodules, a finding that indicates benignancy (figure 2). The use of intravenous gadolinium may be useful in distinguishing enchondromas from low grade chondrosarcomas;9,10 enchondromas typically show a peripheral enhancement pattern while chondrosarcomas demonstrate a septal enhancement pattern.
Chondrosarcoma-Chondrosarcomas are classified according to their site of origin and presence of a prior lesion. These tumors are termed central if they arise within the medullary canal, peripheral or exostotic if they arise from an osteochondroma, and juxtacortical if they arise from the surface of bone. Chondrosarcomas also are divided into primary or secondary categories, based upon the absence or presence of a preexisting lesion. Conventional chondrosarcomas are easily classified using these criteria. Nonconventional chondrosarcomas, however, require additional categories that reflect their unique pathologic features. This group includes dedifferentiated, mesenchymal, clear cell, and extraskeletal chondrosarcomas (table 1).
The majority of chondrosarcomas are central (either primary or secondary) or peripheral. As a group, they are slow growing, low grade lesions. Patients typically present with a history of gradually increasing pain which is often worse at night. Local swelling or a palpable mass may be present. These symptoms may be present for many years prior to diagnosis.
Conventional chondrosarcomas generally are composed of a single confluent mass of malignant hyaline to myxoid containing cartilage. Grossly, they have a lobular morphology, reflecting the growth pattern of cartilage with variable amounts of calcification. Diagnosis of low grade tumors may be difficult based upon cytologic criteria alone. Low grade tumors are cytologically bland, lacking distinguishing features from cellular (atypical) enchondromas. However, the presence of fibrous bands at the tumor-marrow interface has been used as a criterion to separate low grade chondrosarcomas from atypical enchondromas.11 Other criteria used in the diagnosis of malignancy include cortical thickening due to invasion of the haversian system and cortical erosion with or without associated soft-tissue mass.8 In comparison, high grade tumors show cellular anaplasia, allowing diagnosis by standard histologic examination.
Radiographic features of chondrosarcoma reflect the gross morphology and mineralization of the cartilage malignancy. Low grade chondrosarcomas may have a deceiving non-aggressive appearance on conventional radiography. Fortunately, most tumors are typically large, with a lobular appearance due to their slow growth rate pattern. Central lesions can demonstrate predominately lytic destruction, cortical thickening, broad areas of cortical scalloping, symmetric expansion of bone, and minimal calcification, with or without an associated soft-tissue mass. CT easily demonstrates the cortical changes and characterizes the mineralization, and MR reveals hyperintense signal intensity on T2W images due to the rich water content within the hyaline cartilage-containing lobules. Decreased signal intensity present on these images corresponds to intervening fibrous septa or calcification. Enhancement of the fibrous septa separating the cartilage lobules is evident following intravenous gadolinium and can be a useful finding in distinguishing between benign and low grade malignant cartilage tumors.9,10 Secondary peripheral or exostotic chondrosarcomas demonstrate similar radiographic appearances, though they lack alterations of the host bone. High grade neoplasms appear less lobulated, with more necrosis and loss of the septal enhancement pattern. Fortunately, these lesions are not difficult to diagnose histologically.
Approximately 10% of primary and secondary chondrosarcomas dedifferentiate into more anaplastic high grade sarcomas (dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma). Dedifferentiation can be seen with both low and high grade chondrosarcomas. It is defined histologically by the presence of high grade malignant tissue juxtaposed to chondrosarcoma. Radiographically, the transition is apparent. A more aggressive pattern of bone destruction may be identified, permeative or moth-eaten, with cortical destruction and soft-tissue mass. There is a poorer prognosis with higher incidence of metastasis similar to high grade sarcomas.
Chondrosarcoma cells do not require a vascular supply and can easily be transplanted. Any cells deposited within the surgical field are likely to result in a local recurrence (figure 5). Great care must be taken when treating chondrosarcomas that the surgical site and bone graft donor site are not contaminated with cartilage cells.
Knowledge of the types and distribution of cartilage provides a foundation for understanding the imaging characteristics and location of hyaline cartilage-containing tumors. These tumors have a characteristic appearance on MR imaging. Differentiation between enchondromas and low grade chondrosarcomas can be difficult when based only on histologic findings. Correlation with the imaging appearance can be extremely helpful in arriving at a correct diagnosis. AR

The Associated Press
VANCOUVER, British Columbia - Cory Monteith, the handsome young actor who shot to fame in the hit TV series "Glee" but was beset by addiction struggles so fierce that he once said he was lucky to be alive, was found dead in a hotel room, police said. He was 31.
Cory Monteith, star of the hit show "Glee", was found dead in his hotel room Saturday in Vancouver, British Columbia. He was 31.
The Canadian-born Monteith, who played star quarterback-turned-singer Finn Hudson on the Fox TV series about a high school glee club, was found dead in his room on the 21st floor of the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel on Vancouver's waterfront at about noon Saturday, according to police.
Acting Vancouver Police Chief Doug LePard said there was no indication of foul play.
Vancouver police said Sunday that an autopsy is expected to take place on Monday to determine the cause of death.
Monteith's body was found by hotel staff who entered his room after he missed his check-out time, LePard said. Monteith had checked into the hotel on July 6.
"We do not have a great deal of information as to cause of death," said British Columbia Chief Coroner Lisa Lapointe. She said further tests would be needed to determine how Monteith died.
"The exact nature of those examinations will depend on investigative findings within the next day or two as information is gathered from medical records and discussions with family take place," she said.
LePard said Monteith had been out with people earlier and that those people are being interviewed.
Video and electronic records from the hotel indicate Monteith returned to his room by himself early Saturday morning, and he was believed to be alone when he died, LePard said.
Lapointe said he had been dead for several hours by the time his body was found.
Lea Michele, Monteith's "Glee" co-star and real-life girlfriend, was asking for privacy after receiving news of his death, said her representative, Molly Kawachi of ID-PR .
"We ask that everyone kindly respect Lea's privacy during this devastating time," Kawachi said in an email to The Associated Press.
Reality TV celebrity Kim Kardashian offered her condolences in a tweet: " So sad. Prayers 4 his family. Praying 4 Lea too! Words can't describe what they must be feeling."
"Glee" cast members and other celebrities also took to Twitter to express their feelings.
"I have no words! My heart is broken," Dot-Marie Jones, who plays football coach Shannon Beiste on "Glee," said in a post on her Twitter account Saturday night. She called Monteith a "hell of a friend" and an "amazing" man.
Lauren Potter, who plays Becky Jackson, the cheerleader with Down Syndrome on "Glee," tweeted that she feels "totally heartbroken right now."
"I love Cory so much this hurts my heart," she wrote. "I hope my Glee family is OK right now. I love them all. Cory was always so nice to me. I have so many good memories."
"What an absolutely tragic loss of a very talented young man," tweeted Zooey Deschanel, star of another Fox show, "New Girl."
Fox and the producers of "Glee," including 20th Century Fox Television, called him an exceptional performer "and an even more exceptional person. He was a true joy to work with and we will all miss him tremendously."
"We are in shock and mourning this tragic loss," his representatives at Viewpoint Public Relations in Los Angeles said in a statement.
In April, Monteith checked himself in to a treatment facility for "substance addiction" and asked for privacy as he took steps toward recovery, a representative said at the time.

Take a family animation class and enjoy VIP-like access to California Adventure Park when you stay at this centrally located hotel, done in traditional Craftsman style. For an adults-only dinner, book a table at Napa Rose, where every waiter is a sommelier. Rest assured that the little ones will be fully occupied at Pinocchio's Workshop, furnished with a movie screen, arts and crafts stations, and cots.

The best thing about this hotel is it's location. It's situated between Downtown Disney and California Adventure with rooms that can have a view of either.
There's nothing like having spent a long day at the park or out being entertained and having a very short walk back to your room.
The lobby is inviting and spectacular. There is a bar off to the side of the lobby if you're looking to grab a cocktail at a place that doesn't require leaving the hotel.
Storytellers Cafe is a great buffet for the family and Napa Rose is the resident table service restaurant offering delicious food with an extensive wine list.Recommended for:Family Travelers - Disney's Grand Californian HotelTammy Intrepid A.Member ofLocal CultureOutdoor EnthusiastsFoodies+ 3

Jul 24, 2012It's Yosemite's Ahwanee Hotel on steroids! Too rich for my blood. The families we see wandering glassy-eyed with their tired tots must be taking out a second mortgage to pay for their magical dream experience. Naturally, the Disney attention to detail is evident; beautiful work on the interiors and fixtures. Sit in the lobby and relax - at least that is free.

The Grand Californian is THE place to stay when you make a pilgrimage to the happiest place on earth. Our family has stayed at this hotel pretty much since it opened. When you drive up you can't help but notice the similarities to the Awahnee Hotel in Yosemite (very arts & crafts style). The decor continues in the arts & crafts motif complete with Tiffany style lamps and a giant fireplace in the lobby. They have mission style rocking chairs in front of the fireplace and even some itty bitty kiddie chairs too. So cute!
The rooms are quite comfy but not plush. It is not the nicest hotel I've ever stayed at but it is definitely the best in Disneyland. The only Disney-esque details are the pictures of Snow White in a woodland scene and the shower curtain with images of Bambi, Thumper and friends. The beds are comfy and they offer turn-down service where they dim the lights and offer some Disney chocolates too. Don't mind if I do.
They also offer some nice restaurants too. The Storytellers Cafe is a great place for some pre-park breakfast. Gotta get that strength up! The banana stuffed french toast is the best! They also offer a yummy corn chowder for lunch and dinner. Creamy goodness. The Napa Rose is delectable. The food is amazing and quite creative. Very California Cuisine. Yummy cocktails too...like candy. MMMM.
You also can't beat the convenience and location, location, location of the Grand Californian. As a guest you have access to a VIP entrance to California Adventures. Love VIP status! You are also smack dab in the middle of Downtown Disney which is a fun place to shop, eat and immerse yourself into the magic of the Disney empire. I can't wait to return!

This hotel is fabulous! Upon arrival, you immediately lose all sense of being in the city and feel like you have been whisked off to an amazing cabin in the woods. This "cabin," is located on the premises of Disney's California Adventure Park. It has a fire place lounge with rocking chairs for the adults and a separate are with mini-rocking chairs and cartoons for the kids. It also has a great lobby bar, 3 pools with a water slide, 2 exceptional restaurants, and an area that provides various activities for children. When my family and I visited, we were asked if we were celebrating anything special. We nonchalantly replied that we were celebrating the end of first grade and were upgraded to a 1 bedroom suite! This was our first time stating at the Grand Californian (have stayed there once again since then) and we were definitely not expecting this to happen. The room was amazing. We had a large balcony that overlooked Downtown Disney. Definitely an unforgettable experience. Although their regular guest rooms are also extremely nice. Of course, by Disney standards, service was excellent. And, for those guests staying at the hotel, you are offered an extra hour before the park opens to the public in the morning to venture out and get on certain rides. This alone is amazing. We did this in order to get on the new Cars ride shortly after it opened and saved us about a 2 hour wait. Overall, this place is pricey but it is definitely worth trying out at least once. If you are locals like us, find a deal and stay for a night. You won't regret it.

An homage to California's arts-and-crafts architectural style, this hotel is the most luxurious option inside the Anaheim's Disneyland Resort. Guests staying here get early access to Disney's California Adventure theme park, a bonus. Kids will love evening storytime by the fantastically huge fireplaces in the lobby, while parents may appreciate the extensive wine list at Napa Rose restaurant (make reservations).

Jul 19, 2013To get the full and best experience at the happiest place on earth, you'll want to stay at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel. It's just steps away from the entrance of Downtown Disneyland and the parks. Cozy arts & crafts decor makes you feel like you're staying in a luxurious lodge.

Dec 18, 2012Exceptional, friendly, Disney service in addition to some luxurious charm. The rooms are not nearly as substantial as I imagined them to be, especially for the price you are paying, but then again, you really shouldn't be spending your time sitting in your room.

Oct 11, 2012I love the Grand Californian, which has a rugged craftsman design. It's the luxury hotel at Disneyland and lets out directly into California Adventure. It's close to Napa Rose, a swank and elegant Disney restaurant.
It can be expensive, but it's always a treat.

New Zealand Embassy Seoul, South Korea
Work visas for Korea
Korea Immigration Service
Korea Immigration Service, a division under Ministry of Justice, has offices throughout Korea and will be able to assist you with visa matters including questions about your visa status, alien registration, extention/renewal of sojourn period and changes in visa status. Please visit the Korea Immigration Service website for more information.
Employment Visas
To work legally in Korea, one must obtain the appropriate employment visa. The Korean government tightly controls visa issuance for employment, and there have been instances in which teachers have been unable to obtain the appropriate visas. With effect from 15 December 2007 the government of the Republic of Korea has introduced new regulations that require an apostille certified criminal record check and a health certificate to be submitted with E-2 teaching visa applications or extension applications.
At this time, the New Zealand Embassy does not have any further information about what specifically the Korean authorities will require of E-2 visa applicants. If you have further questions, we suggest that you contact the Korea Immigration Service, Border Control Division, at 500-9116, 500-9117, or 500-9118. The New Zealand Embassy in Seoul is not able to provide a criminal record check service, nor can the Embassy authenticate record checks.
The Privacy Unit of the Ministry of Justice will provide information on criminal convictions. For information on how to obtain a copy of your criminal record and application forms please refer to their website.
The Authentication Unit of the Department of Internal Affairs issues Apostille Certificates. For information on how to obtain an Apostille Certificate please refer to their website.
Legal Warning
Some expatriates have run into serious legal problems with the Korean Immigration Office because they have either accepted employment as English teachers while in Korea on a tourist visa or they accepted part-time employment or private classes without obtaining the proper permission. Violation of the Korea Immigration laws can result in severe penalties including imprisonment; fines of up to Won 50,000 for each day of overstay or deportation with a ban on re-entry, usually for up to two years. It is your responsibility to understand local laws and to obey them. The Embassy cannot assist you in any manner if you violate Korean visa laws, other than provide you with a list of attorneys.
Where to apply for a work permit for Korea
Please note, the New Zealand Embassy in Seoul is not responsible for issuing work permits for New Zealanders wishing to work in Korea.
A New Zealander who wants to come to Korea to work must first apply to the Korean Embassy in Wellington, providing details of the job that has been offered.
The address of the Korean Embassy in Wellington is:

Hi guys
just wondering if a rash on the knee is an indicator of bad pop up technique or not.
When surfing in boardshorts I get a rash on my right knee (goofy footer) and I can not find
a reason for that.I do not use my knees popping up so I do not know why this happens.
In winter with the wetsuit, no problem.But I I do get a bit of wax on the knee pad.Sign of a bad technique
or not?
Any thoughts?
