Albert Bierstadt (January 7, 1830 – February 18, 1902) was a German-American painter best known for his lavish, sweeping landscapes of the American West. To paint the scenes, Bierstadt joined several journeys of the Westward Expansion. Though not the first artist to record these sites, Bierstadt was the foremost painter of these scenes for the remainder of the 19th century.
Born in Germany, Bierstadt was brought to the United States at the age of one by his parents. He later returned to study painting for several years in Düsseldorf. He became part of the Hudson River School in New York, an informal group of like-minded painters who started painting along this scenic river. Their style was based on carefully detailed paintings with romantic, almost glowing lighting, sometimes called luminism. An important interpreter of the western landscape, Bierstadt, along with Thomas Moran, is also grouped with the Rocky Mountain School.[1]
Bierstadt was born in Solingen, Germany. The following year, his family moved to New Bedford, Massachusetts, in 1831. He developed a taste for art early and made clever crayon sketches in his youth. In 1851, he began to paint in oils.[2]
He returned to Germany in 1853 and studied painting for several years in Düsseldorf with members of its informal school of painting. After returning to New Bedford in 1857, he taught drawing and painting briefly, before devoting himself full-time to painting.
In 1858 he exhibited a large painting of a Swiss landscape at the National Academy of Design, which gained him positive critical reception and honorary membership in the Academy.[3] At this time Bierstadt began painting scenes in New England and upstate New York, including in the Hudson River valley. A group of artists known as the Hudson River School portrayed its majestic landscapes and craggy areas, as well as the light affected by the changing waters.
In 1859, Bierstadt traveled westward in the company of Frederick W. Lander, a land surveyor for the U.S. government, to see those landscapes. He returned to a studio he had taken at the Tenth Street Studio Building in New York with sketches that would result in numerous finished paintings. In 1863 he traveled west again, this time in the company of the author Fitz Hugh Ludlow, whose wife he would later marry. Throughout the 1860s, Bierstadt used studies from this trip as the source for large-scale paintings for exhibition. He continued to visit the American West throughout his career.
During the American Civil War, Bierstadt paid for a substitute to serve in his place when he was drafted in 1863. He completed one Civil War painting Guerrilla Warfare, Civil War in 1862, based on his brief experiences with soldiers stationed at Camp Cameron in 1861.[4] Bierstadt's painting was based on a stereo photograph taken by his brother Edward Bierstadt, who operated a photography studio at Langley's Tavern in Virginia. Bierstadt's painting received a positive review when it was exhibited at the Brooklyn Art Association at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in December 1861. Curator Eleanor Jones Harvey observes that Bierstadt's painting, created from photographs, "is quintessentially that of a voyeur, privy to the stories and unblemished by the violence and brutality of first-hand combat experience. [4]
Bierstadt's technical proficiency, earned through his study of European landscape, was crucial to his success as a painter of the American West. It accounted for his popularity in disseminating views of the Rockies to those who had not seen them.[5] The immense canvases he produced after his trips with Lander and Ludlow established him as the preeminent painter of the western American landscape.[6] Financial recognition confirmed his status: The Rocky Mountains, Lander's Peak, completed in 1863, was purchased for $25,000 in 1865.[7]
Despite his popular success, Bierstadt was criticized by some contemporaries for the romanticism evident in his choices of subject[8] and his use of light was felt to be excessive. His exhibition pieces were brilliantly crafted images that glorified the American West as a land of promise.[9] Bierstadt's choice of grandiloquent subjects was matched by his enterpreneurial flair. His exhibitions of individual works were accompanied by promotion, ticket sales, and, in the words of one critic, a "vast machinery of advertisement and puffery."[10]
In 1860 he was elected a member of the National Academy; he received medals in Austria, Bavaria, Belgium, and Germany.[11] In 1867 he traveled to London, where he exhibited two landscape paintings in a private reception with Queen Victoria.[12] He traveled through Europe for two years, cultivating social and business contacts to sustain the market for his work overseas.[13]
His wife was diagnosed with consumption in 1876, and from then until her death in 1893, Bierstadt spent time with her in the warmer climate of Nassau in the Bahamas. He also continued to travel to the west and Canada. In later life, Bierstadt's work fell increasingly out of critical favor. It was attacked for its theatrical tone.[14]
In 1882 Bierstadt's studio at Irvington, New York, was destroyed by fire, resulting in the loss of many of his paintings.[2] By the time of his death in 1902, the taste for epic landscape painting had long since subsided. Bierstadt was then largely forgotten. He was buried at the Rural Cemetery in New Bedford, Massachusetts.
Interest in his work was renewed in the 1960s, with the exhibition of his small oil studies.[15] The subsequent reassessment of Bierstadt's work has placed it in a favorable context:
"The temptation (to criticize him) should be steadfastly resisted. Bierstadt's theatrical art, fervent sociability, international outlook, and unquenchable personal energy reflected the epic expansion in every facet of western civilization during the second half of the nineteenth century."[16]
Bierstadt was a prolific artist, having completed over 500 paintings during his lifetime.[17] Many of these are held by museums across the United States.

Legacy and honors[edit]
- Because of Bierstadt's interest in mountain landscapes, Mount Bierstadt and Bierstadt Lake in Colorado are named in his honor. Bierstadt was probably the first European to visit the summit of Mount Evans in 1863, 1.5 miles from Mount Bierstadt.[29] Bierstadt named it Mount Rosa, a reference to both Monte Rosa above Zermatt and, Rosalie Ludlow, his future wife, but the name was changed from Rosalie to Evans in 1895 in honor of Colorado governor John Evans.
- In 1998, the United States Postal Service issued a set of 20 commemorative stamps entitled "Four Centuries of American Art", one of which featured Albert Bierstadt's The Last of the Buffalo.[30] In 2008, the USPS issued a commemorative stamp in its "American Treasures" series featuring Bierstadt's 1864 painting Valley of the Yosemite.[31]
- Valley of the Yosemite[32] also appears in a scene in Terry Gilliam's 1995 film Twelve Monkeys, accompanied by several doctors singing "Blueberry Hill".[33]
- William Bliss Baker, another landscape artist, studied under Bierstadt.

Support rally changes to victory rally
Martha Sparks
Society Editor
A rally held Friday afternoon in downtown Logan was originally organized as a support rally for 14-year old Jared Marcum who had been charged in April with obstructing an officer following an incident over a NRA t-shirt picturing a rifle he had worn to school. Charges were dropped on Thursday and the support rally then became a victory rally. For more on the rally, see Tuesday's edition of The Logan Banner.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"I ordered this card in Sheer Lilac and absolutely loved them! I received them in the mail a week before the estimated delivery date. They are just what I had pictured!"
"Very happy with this save the date card. I ordered mine in purple, will go perfectly with my purple themed wedding in sept of 2013. Excellent paper and printing quality. I am so excited to send these out in March!"
"Loved the design of this card, very simple and elegant. The colors were gorgeous. We were impressed with the quality and for the price it's amazing! I loved being able to customize a message on the back. We will definitely be ordering the matching invites, response cards, etc."
"We wanted to get our save-the-dates out in a timely fashion and had not yet had a chance to get our engagement photos done. This was a great choice for us as it complemented our color scheme and arrived just exactly as we imagined it would. They print (both on the front and the back) looks great and the card itself has a nice weight to it. Definitely recommend!"

1. Talk about the role the ghost of Melquíades plays in the lives of all the Buendías that he continues to visit after he dies—especially Aureliano Segundo and Aureliano (II). Link this with the "traffic of the dead" that passes through Macondo. What do the ghosts have in common?
2. Spend some time thinking about all the different kinds of love that exist in the novel. Are there loves that seem to transcend the ravages of everyday life, warfare, history, and time itself? What kind of love is the most prevalent? 3. How is old age treated in this novel? Do you feel that a person's place in the Buendía family changes as they grow old? How is their wisdom utilized by the community, and how could it possibly be utilized better? Do you think the characters themselves changed as they aged? 4. Do you feel any of the characters "learn" from their mistakes or heartaches? If so, who and in what ways? 5. The narrator states on page 213, "Remedios the Beauty was not a creature of this world." What sets her apart from the other Buendías? Are there any other literary characters that she reminds you of? 6. Discuss the icons of female beauty and power used throughout the book. In what ways do you consider the female characters to be strong—and similarly, how do they appear weaker or more fragile than the male characters? 7. Talk about the many jubilees, festivals and other kinds of celebration that occur in Macondo. Do there seem to be more of them in these pages than there were at the beginning of the book? If so, why do you think that might be? 8. "The innocent yellow train that was to bring so many ambiguities and certainties, so many pleasant and unpleasant moments, so many changes, calamities, and feelings of nostalgia to Macondo" blows into town on page 239. Put this into context with your general knowledge of progress in Macondo. Did you have a feeling of elation or foreboding when the train/banana company first arrived? 9. Discuss the significance of Úrsula's decision to raise José Arcadio (IV) to be the next Pope. What does this say about her, and why does she do it? What does his "reaction" to his schooling say about him? How do you think it plays into other religious elements in the novel? 10. So far, which character do you connect with most strongly? Name the three things you like about that character most. What do you think this character says about human nature, morality, family, or life in general?

You remove any three "magic" cards from the deck - say, an Ace, Two and Three - and place them aside. You now cut to the four Kings, placing them on the table in a diamond formation as you find them. Next, you pick up the three "magic" cards and drop them on top of one of the Kings. Instantly, the Kings assemble in this pile and the three "magic" cards are found where the other three Kings were. There is no palming and no hidden/extra cards involved.
In this version of the above, the four Kings and three magic cards are removed from the deck then the deck is discarded. The routine is now presented in packet trick style using only the seven cards.
"Have you seen the Seven Card Trick? you ask, as you remove six cards and drop then on the table. "It uses six cards!" Which gets a mild laugh. "Actually, to make this the Seven Card Trick we need a seventh card." You hand the rest of the deck to a spectator who removes any card. The rest of the deck is set to one side. The selection is placed among the six cards and the packet is now dealt into a pile on the table: Face down - face up - face down - face up - and so on. "Did you see your card?" you ask. "You did? That's not surprising because...it's the only one you could have seen." You deal the seven cards one at a time revealing that the selection is now the only card that is face up. The effect is now repeated. Finally the seven cards are returned to the deck whereupon they magically reverse....except for one card that remains face down. This is the selection.
"Peter started to fry my brain with more routines and effects, his "7 card Trick"...awww....I was badly fooled by it....very very badly..." - Zennth Kok
"A spectator selects any five cards from the deck. You explain that these cards are now inseparable, and to prove this you ask the spectator to remove one of them. You push this card into the middle of the deck. You now take the other four cards and drop them face down on top of the deck, whereupon, instantly the lost card appears face up in the middle of the four cards. Finally you blow on the other four cards and they have changed into the four Aces.
A Nail-writing Trick For Those Who Can't Nail-write!
A spectator names ANY card - say, she names the Two of Diamonds. You bring out an envelope from your wallet. You open the envelope and remove a white card (or the spectator can remove it) which you hand directly to the spectator. She reads out what you previously wrote on the card as a prediction - The 2 of Diamonds.
You take any shuffled deck and name your favourite card - say, the Ace of Spades. You now ask the spectator to name any other card - say, the King of Hearts. You spread through - no culling - and cut to your card the Ace of Spades which you give to the spectator. You ask him to wave the Ace of Spades as if it were a magic wand! Immediately you reach into your pocket and remove his freely named card - the King of Heart. You now cut both cards into the deck. Upon spreading, your card the Ace of Spades is seen to be the only card face up. But where is the spectator's card? With an empty hand, you reach into your pocket and remove the spectator's card for a second time.
Three spectators each select a card then the cards are lost back into the deck. You state that you have sensitive fingers that can cut to any cards. So you say you will demonstrate this by cutting to the three selections one at a time. You give the deck a cut and deal the top card face down in front of the first spectator. This is repeated for the other two spectators. For the grand finale each spectator turns over his/her card...but all three cards are wrong! So much for your sensitive fingers! Not to worry. "I have four secret assistants," you say, "who normally work unseen in the background. But tonight I need their help and I don't care if everyone sees them." You now ribbon spread the deck revealing the four Queens face up in the middle, and there are three face down cards interlaced between them, Collectors style. These prove to be the three selections.
You hand the deck to a spectator who deals off any five cards. He then selects a card and this is added to the five cards to make six. You shuffle the packet and then alternate them face-up and face-down. You show the fanned packet clearly on both sides. Instantly all the cards face the one way again except for one card - his selection. Removing the selected card, you have the spectator cut it into the deck. He then holds the rest of the packet between his hands. Now his selection magically leaves the deck and is found reversed among the cards in his hands.
You remove the four Jacks from the deck and give them to a spectator. Three cards are now selected and placed, unseen, in a face down row on the table. You open the deck and the spectator places the four Jacks, together, into the deck. After one shuffle, you spread to show that there are now three face down cards between the Jacks. These are removed and placed in a row below the selections to form three pairs. When the pairs are turned over each is seen to be a perfect match.
Three cards are selected and lost back into the deck. You remove the four Kings, saying that they are experts at catching selected cards. So said, you drop the Kings onto the deck and immediately spread to show that they have caught a card, which is face up in the middle of the Kings. Alas, this is NOT one of the selections. You remove the packet from the top of the deck and place the rest of the deck aside. "Ah, well, at least we might make a decent poker hand from these five cards," you say as you count the five cards from hand to hand. Suddenly, you squeeze the packet and deal three cards face up onto the table. There are only three cards - no Kings or wrong card - and these are the three selections!

Comments about Gucci GG3518 WW0 Brown Striped:
I am so happy with the company and the purchase. My order arrived ridiculously quickly, and I was so happy wih the way the fit. I have an oval shaped face, so I wanted to break away from standard geometric frames so I decided to choose these. They are a little long (I would have preferred them to be a little shorter), but overall I am happy with their fit and how they go with my face.

MEQUON, Wis. – The Rockford College men's basketball team faced their first road and Northern Athletics Conference on Tuesday, as they traveled to Mequon, Wis. to face the Concordia University Wisconsin Falcons. An uncharacteristic slow start ultimately led to a 80-70 loss for the Regents.
Once senior Garrett Staniec (Glenview, Ill./ Glenbrook South) opened the game's scoring, someone must have put a lid on the Regents basket for the next six minutes. Just 10 minutes into the game, Rockford found itself in a very unfamiliar position, down 26-6. Five minutes later, the Falcons had extended their advantage to a game-high 24 points. A late 18-7 run by the Regents cut their deficit to 44-31 at the break.
Throughout the early portion of the second stanza, the Falcons lead hovered between 11 and 15. Each time, Rockford began to mount a comeback, the Falcons responded, eventually increasing their lead to 16 points midway through the half. A 12-2 run keyed by nine points from junior Robert Malone (Stephens, Ark./ Stephens) cut the Regents deficit to six, but Rockford would get no closer.
Senior Danny Armelin (Gonzales, Texas/ Gonzales) led the Regents with 22 points, while Malone added 20 points and Andrew Weber (Roscoe, Ill./ Roscoe) chipped in 10. Staniec grabbed a game-high 11 rebounds for Rockford.
Rockford will try to return to the winning column on Saturday, when they host the MSOE Raiders as part of a NAC women's and men's doubleheader. The ladies will open play at 2:00 p.m., with the men to follow at 4:15 p.m..

IN THIS ARTICLEAcetaminophenAcetaminophen is just as effective as NSAIDs for noninflammatory types of pain if used in proper doses. Acetaminophen has few side effects and does not interact with other medications in any significant way. The only people who should avoid it are those with chronic liver problems. Even in this group, a day or two of use is probably safe; consult your doctor. It is available in a variety of brand names. For adults, the dose of acetaminophen is up to a gram (two extra strength [500 mg] or three regular strength [325 mg]) every four hours. Do not take more than four doses per day. Acetaminophen is contained in many over-the-counter products (such as cold or sinus medication), and if these products are taken in addition to acetaminophen, it is possible to take overall doses that are higher than the recommended maximum dose. When taking pain medication or combinations of pain medicine, check whether they contain acetaminophen to assure that more of the recommended dose is not taken mistakenly. For stronger pain relief, acetaminophen is combined with narcotic type drugs. These drugs can be obtained only with a prescription. Next Page: Must Read Articles Related to Pain Medications

Big Snow to Start the New Year
Posted on - 2012 - 1 - 1
Big early season snow (30 inches in 3 days) and cool temperatures contributed to a steady start to the skiing and riding season in Jackson Hole, but the month of December has kept the best for last. As 2011 draws to a close, the biggest storm of the season is brewing over the northern pacific and is headed for the Tetons. The forecast calls for the beginning of a major system to impact the Tetons beginning tonight, and to last through the start of the weekend. With forecasts for upwards of 3 feet of new snow Jackson Hole will be ringing in the New Year with powder!
The Antelope Flats Terrain Park opened this weekend with big rails, table tops, and mondo kickers. Accessed via the Teewinot Chairlift the new Antelope Flats Terrain Park features 28 and 32 foot tabletops with crisp take offs and smooth landings, plus a variety of rails including a Battleship rail, and an up down-up-down rail. It's all topped off with a taller starting mound to get you higher, further and having more fun.
For the fainter of heart or the younger of age, the Bronco terrain park has loads of starter features, and the Campground Stash is open for business with new features this year – like deer hunter, as well as the A-Frame and some of the other classics from last year.
This year book a roundtrip airline ticket to Jackson Hole this winter for as low as $299*!

- "Your metabolism burns four times faster than the average person. He thought it could be one of the side effects. It wasn't your fault, you did everything you could. Did you believe your friend? Did you respect him? Then stop blaming yourself. Allow Barnes to dignity of his choice. He damn well must have thought you were worth it. You won't be alone!"
- ―Peggy Carter[src]
Margaret "Peggy" Carter was a British officer with the Strategic Scientific Reserve and Steve Rogers's World War II girlfriend.
Captain America: First Vengeance
Margaret Carter was an agent of the British Secret Intelligence. In November 1940, she infiltrated Castle Kaufmann, the headquarters of the SS general Johann Schmidt, leader of HYDRA, Adolf Hitler's top secret science division. Disguised as a maid Eva, she freed the captured scientist Abraham Erskine and brought into the Strategic Scientific Reserve.
Captain America: The First Avenger
Peggy served as an Operations Supervisor to the Strategic Scientific Reserve. While training several candidates for Project Rebirth, she came across a frail-bodied young man named Steve Rogers, who Dr. Erskine was intent on becoming the project's first human test subject, due to his goodhearted nature and great will to serve his country. Although initially skeptical of him because of his appearance and weak health, Peggy eventually saw that Rogers was smarter and more practical than the rest of the potentials, and was often amused to see the smaller man outwit the burly recruits. She was impressed and developed respect for him when, during a test, Rogers chose to muffle a grenade with his body, not knowing it was a fake. It was this choice that inevitably led the SSR to approve Erskine's choice to make Rogers Project Rebirth's first test subject, and Peggy was tasked to escort Rogers to the laboratory when that time came.
After Project Rebirth proved to be a success, Peggy developed a crush on the physically-enhanced Steve Rogers, though she referred to it as "having faith in him." However, following Dr. Erskine's murder and the loss of the last copy of the serum, Peggy went on with the S.S.R. and was separated from Rogers, who was sent to tour America and became a famous icon amongst the masses as Captain America.
Peggy was reunited with Rogers when he flew to Italy to advertise war bonds and attempt to boost morale. She was unofficially on-site at the time and soon discovered that Rogers was feeling stifled once more, wanting to use the gifts Dr. Erskine had given him to serve his country as a soldier. Their conversation was interrupted when an ambulance arrived and Peggy let slip that the injured soldiers were from the 107th, at which Rogers instantly rushed to see Colonel Chester Phillips and demand the status of his friend, Sgt. James "Bucky" Barnes. Phillips confirmed that Barnes was missing, and when Rogers learned that no rescue mission was being planned, Peggy realized he was about to do it himself. Wanting to give him a fighting chance, she helped him enter enemy territory by cajoling Howard Stark into flying them there.
Later, she entered Phillips's tent in time to hear him declare Rogers dead, after which Philips reprimanded her for her part in Rogers's scheme. Before he could finish, a commotion drew them both out of the tent, where they found Rogers leading the formerly HYDRA-captured troops back to base.
After his incredibly successful rescue, Rogers was drafted into the S.S.R. and began to serve in a more active capacity, putting him in close contact to Peggy, who tried to remain professional around him. Her attempt largely failed when she caught him and a female lieutenant kissing, leading her to shoot him while he was trying out a new shield. She was, however, quite pleased when a film of Rogers' efforts in the field revealed that he kept a picture of her in his compass.
Following the death of his friend Bucky, Peggy found Rogers attempting to get drunk in a bar she had once found him and Barnes in. She informed him that Dr. Erskine had presumed his body processed the alcohol too fast, preventing him from his goal, then told him to respect Barnes's choice of following him until his death.
When the S.S.R. planned for a full-frontal attack on HYDRA, Peggy went along, saving Rogers from a soldier wielding flame-throwers before reminding him to go after the Red Skull. She and Colonel Philips later appeared in Schmidt's car to help Rogers get to Schmidt's plane, The Valkyrie, which was already leaving the hangar.
Following their defeat of the remaining HYDRA soldiers, Rogers called in, reporting that Red Skull was dead but that the plane was heading for New York with no way of stopping it. Rogers decided to put the large plane in the water. Peggy, believing that this would result in his death, doesn't give up hope and insists on the matter, implying that there would be time for them to sort the situation out. Rogers claims that there isn't enough time and proceeds with the landing, and Peggy attempted to distract him from his impending death by setting a date with him, promising to teach him how to dance.
Finally, The Valkyrie is found decades later, and in an unexpected twist, Steve Rogers was discovered to still be alive. The experiments that he underwent in the past had allowed him to survive in the ice, which had cryogenically frozen him, allowing him to retain his youthful appearance. Later, after Nick Fury reveals that he'd been asleep for almost 70 years and asks if he would be all right, Rogers mentions his date with Peggy.

The Avengers
While training, Steve Rogers thinks back on his past, and has visions of Peggy and the other friends he's lost.
In the files Rogers studies, Peggy is reported as "Retired", suggesting that she is still alive and taking up residence in the United Kingdom, although she would be over 90 years old. It is unknown whether Peggy was informed of his return, although after the events of the Battle of New York, it is unlikely she remained unaware.

Character traits
Agent Peggy Carter is a strong woman and a great agent, one of the first female agents in US Army. Because of her uncomfortable primacy, she's always put to the test to prove male soldiers she's worthy of her position, thus becoming a defensive character type.
Carter is a skilled agent, able to stand confrontations with her male colleagues, and a trained agent, who usually wields firearms in battle. She's got an incredible aim.

Someone's Google alerts must have been buzzing this weekend, but it was much ado about old news.
Just about every local blog wrote about the Washington Post's quick profile of Republican Matt Doheny, who is taking on Democratic Rep. Bill Owens in November (provided he wins the Republican primary).
But the newest news on there is from November 2010.
It's a (very) old profile, in fact. It lists him as a former candidate. Of course, Mr. Doheny is a current candidate.
Some of the information needs to be updated, and some will need to be updated soon. For example, Mr. Doheny no longer works at Fintech Advisory. He owns North Country Capital, an investment firm for which Mr. Doheny calls all the shots. It's based out of his Washington Street office.
Also, under "Spouse," at some point this summer that'll need to change, too. Mr. Doheny is now engaged to his longtime girlfriend.

Michael, who normally talks like the London native that he is, found himself inexplicably using a distinctive burr from England's West Country for a couple days. Since he'd just spent three weeks in a coma due to a life-threatening case of pneumonia, medical staff feared this meant he'd suffered brain damage.
"My doctors were genuinely worried that I had this condition, it's a genuine thing where people wake from comas speaking French or some other language they learned at school," Michael explained to a London radio station.
"They were worried I could have spoken like that for the rest of my life...Not that there's anything wrong with the West Country accent--but it's a bit weird when you come from North London."
Michael noted that although his doctors were concerned, his family was just so relieved to have him awake that they found the bizarre accent hysterical. "They were just laughing away at me talking in this weird accent," he said. "I basically did two days' worth of stand-up comedy."
The star was rushed to an Austrian hospital last November in the middle of a European tour, forcing him to cancel all his remaining appearances. He's since rescheduled the tour and invited the hospital staff to attend one of the shows. His new music video, "White Light," which features model Kate Moss, references his near-brush with death.
As Michael noted, there's nothing wrong with a West Country accent--it's simply a colorful way of speaking that, like many distinctive accents, has been parodied in regional comedy over the years. To us Yanks across the pond, perhaps a reasonable equivalent would be if someone from Detroit suddenly woke up talking like a New York City cabbie or a country singer from Tuscaloosa.

At Vermont Children's Hospital, our clinicians have the specialized qualifications and experience to diagnose, treat, and manage children with a wide range of congenital and acquired conditions involving the urinary and genital tracts.
Pediatric Urology: What You Need to Know
As a university hospital, we provide comprehensive, technologically current and evidence-based evaluation and care for conditions ranging from the simplest to the most complex genitourinary problem.
Children are treated by a fully-qualified fellowship-trained pediatric urologist, who is supported by a team of pediatric specialists available to consult as needed.
We are committed to providing the best possible surgical and medical care for your child in a child-friendly environment.
Pediatric Urology Diagnosis and Treatment
Some of the common conditions our pediatric urologists and specialists treat include:
A collection of fluid in the saclike extension of the peritoneum – the membrane that covers most of the abdominal organs -- that produces swelling in the inguinal region or scrotum.
Inguinal Hernia
A condition that occurs when abdominal organs protrude into the inguinal canal or scrotum. It shares the same origin as the hydrocele and may occur with a hydrocele.
Undescended Testes
A condition in which at least one testicle has not moved into the scrotal sac as the male fetus develops. In most cases, this is resolved on its own in the first year of life.
A congenital condition in which the opening of the urethra (the tube that carries urine from the body) is on the underside of the penis rather than at the tip.
Vesicoureteral Reflux
A condition in which urine from the bladder backs up into the ureter, often diagnosed after a urinary tract infection associated with fever.
Prenatal Hydronephrosis
A fluid-filled enlargement of the kidney prior to birth, typically diagnosed with prenatal ultrasound.
Ureteropelvic Junction Obstruction
A blockage of the flow of urine in the area where the ureter meets the kidney.
Neurogenic Bladder
A disorder resulting from interference in the normal nerve pathways that send signals to the bladder regarding urination. This may be due to a birth defect in the spinal cord (such as spina bifida), spinal cord trauma, or tumors in the central nervous system or pelvis.
Voiding Disorders
This condition refers to any abnormal voiding pattern that occurs after toilet training. This could include urinary tract infections, incontinence (day or night), frequent need to urinate, urgent need to urinate or hesitation with urination.
Other urologic conditions we treat include:
- Ambiguous genitalia
- Bedwetting
- Daytime wetting

Exclusive Stream of "Walk On By" Posts on Billboard.com Today
SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Paul Rodgers, longtime singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist with Bad Company, is #1 Most Added at AC Radio this week with the single, "I Can't Stand The Rain," taken from the upcoming release February 4th of "The Royal Sessions"-a lovingly crafted collection of classic R&B and soul songs re-imagined by the iconic rock singer recorded at Memphis' Royal Studios, historic home of Willie Mitchell and Hi Records, with many of the musicians who played on the original tracks. Truly a lifetime in the making, Rodgers has come full circle with "The Royal Sessions" as he pays homage to the legendary hits he collected on 45s released on Stax/Volt, Goldwax and Hi Records-recordings by Otis Redding, Albert King and Ann Peebles which made such an indelible impression on the young Rodgers inspiring him to pursue a career as a singer. The album is also doing well at classic rock and blues radio formats. An exclusive stream of Rodgers' version of "Walk on By" just posted today on Bllboard.com.

Produced by Perry Margouleff, "The Royal Sessions" is an extraordinary recording which captures the music in its pure form-live band and vocal takes as performed together at Royal Studios by Rodgers and an all-star roster of legendary musicians. The band is a dream lineup of those who played on the original hits dating back to the 60's. The classic rhythm section includes Reverend Charles Hodges (Hammond B3), Michael Tolls (guitar), LeRoy Hodges Jr. (bass), "Hubby" Archie Turner (Wurlitzer), Steve Potts and James Robertson Sr. (drums), The Royal Horns and the Royal Singers. "The Royal Sessions" will be released on 429 Records in the U.S. and internationally (see release dates below).
"The Royal Sessions" is a remarkable project that came together as Rodgers was working on a solo record and producer Margouleff had just discovered that Royal Studios was still up and running under the auspices of Willie "Pops" Mitchell's son Lawrence "Boo" Mitchell. The opportunity to record in such a hallowed place with musicians he considered personal heroes was a dream come true. The Memphis players forged an immediate bond when presented with his formidable talent and sincere love of the songs. Deeply felt, powerfully sung and expertly played, it features a cross-section of material hand-picked by Rodgers, songs of great historical significance and personal meaning.
All of the proceeds from "The Royal Sessions" will be donated to local Memphis music education programs. Special showcase performances by Paul Rogers with the musicians on "The Royal Sessions" will be announced.

"The Royal Sessions" will be released worldwide on the following dates:
