Harry ended Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, as he did the previous novels, by saying his goodbyes to his friends and discussing his plans for the summer vacation. This year, he intends as usual to return to the Dursleys' for two weeks as he promised Dumbledore he would do. But before Ron could remind him that he must attend his brother Bill and Fleur's wedding, Harry also announced that he intended to go to Godric's Hollow: "For me, it started there, all of it. I've just got a feeling I need to go there." 1 This, then, sets the scene for the last book of the series, the book in which we know that Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort will face each other and one of them, or perhaps even both, will die.
Godric's Hollow is the name of the Muggle village where Harry's parents went into hiding, protected by a Fidelius Charm, after Dumbledore warned them that the Dark Lord Voldemort intended to kill them. After the betrayal of their location by a trusted friend, Voldemort appeared at the house in Godric's Hollow and murdered Lily and James Potter but failed to also kill Harry.
Harry must return to Godric's Hollow because something there will help him in his quest to find the missing Horcruxes and destroy them (rendering Lord Voldemort mortal once more) before the Dark Lord tracks him down and finally kills him. We know so little about this place – its location and why it is significant – but there are some clues.
When Hagrid flew to Surrey with baby Harry, he said that Harry fell asleep over Bristol.2 To many of us, this pointed to Godric's Hollow being a Welsh village. However, after examining British history, clues from the books, and interviews with J.K. Rowling, I feel certain that that there is a much more likely candidate for Godric's Hollow in Gloucestershire: Lydney in the Forest of Dean.
Godric's Hollow is connected to and must have been named after one of the founders of Hogwarts. We know this because J.K. Rowling confirmed it in a CBBC interview in 2000.
The significance of the place where Harry and his parents lived – the first name...
JKR: Godric Gryffindor. Very good, you're a bit good you are aren't you. I'm impressed.
You're not going to tell me but…
JKR: My editor didn't, I said to her – Haven't you noticed the connection between where Harry's parents lived and one of the Hogwarts houses? And she said no, no – I'm not being rude about Emma, she's a brilliant editor, the best ever. But no she didn't pick that up either, you're a bit good you are.3
Hogwarts itself was founded "over a thousand years ago." 4 At that point in history, England was largely in Anglo-Saxon hands. The Welsh and the Scots still resisted invasion. The Vikings were harrying the coast and had established a kingdom around York, but most of what we now call England was the domain of the various Angle and Saxon kings.5
Due to the successive waves of invasion in the island of Albion, the nationality of a name gives clues to the location in the United Kingdom and time in history. Godric is an Anglo-Saxon name meaning "power of God." 6 Gryffindor, however, is an invented last name and so cannot absolutely identify Godric Gryffindor as an Anglo-Saxon.
There is an Anglo-Saxon poem called The Battle of Maldon about an attack by the Vikings on the Britons, most of whom were at this time united under the Mercian/Wessex kingdoms. After the death of the Earl of Essex Beornhtoth, one Godric distinguishes himself with his courage by leading the men who did not run away, but fought until the last man was standing. The poem fragment that remains ends with praise for Godric's courage, "he was not the Godric who escaped from the fight." 7 That the battle of Maldon took place is accepted as a fact and the date is given as 991 A.D.8 This is close to the time of the founding of Hogwarts and helps to place Godric, with his revealing first name, in England itself. More importantly, it helps to place him in the kingdoms of Mercia/Wessex in the southern part of England. Godric Gryffindor was known for his courage, as is Harry Potter, which fits in well with the Saxon heroic code and his identification as a Saxon.9
Although the Battle of Maldon takes place on the southeast coast of England, the area around the Severn Estuary was subjected to Viking attacks as well. There is one notable battle in 914 in which the Bishop of Ergying was captured by the Vikings, but the Mercians were successful in driving the Vikings out of Hereford and Gloucester nevertheless.10 Perhaps our Godric distinguished himself at one such battle and thereby was honoured by having a town named after him. There is no doubt that Lydney, or Lindenee as it was called then, was already a town at the time of the Domesday Book.11
On the biography page of J.K. Rowling's web site, she says that "around my ninth birthday we moved for the last time, to Tutshill, a small village just outside of Chepstow, in Wales." 12 Perhaps she meant that Chepstow is in Wales and not Tutshill, as she appears to be saying. In either case, there is a structure called Offa's Dyke which runs alongside Tutshill, Gloucestershire, where Rowling lived until she went to Exeter University. Offa's Dyke was named for the Saxon King of Mercia who, late in the eighth century and well before Hogwarts was built, constructed a boundary and a defensive work between Wales and his kingdom; the dyke runs northwards from the River Wye, in the south, to the Dee Estuary in the north for about 240 kilometres, although not continuously.13 "It was customary for the English to cut off the ears of every Welshman who was found to the east of the dyke, and for the Welsh to hang every Englishman whom they found to the west of it." 14 So in his day, Godric Gryffindor should never have been caught on the west side of the dyke, which even now is still more or less the border between Wales and England. The county of Gloucester, on the Saxon side of the Dyke, is far more promising as Godric's home. We do not know the street address for her former home, but it appears that Rowling lived on the "Saxon" side of the Dyke and the Wye River as all of Tutshill proper is in Gloucestershire, which is relevant, as you will see at the end.
About eight miles from her home in Tutshill, a fifteen-minute drive away on the A48, is another town in the Forest of Dean called Lydney. In 1929, there was an archaeological excavation at a Roman camp that was found at Lydney Park. (The group from Oxford University also included one J.R.R. Tolkien – Rowling was not the only author to be inspired by the Forest of Dean.15) The site included a shrine, built by the Romans, that was unique to England, Scotland, and Wales. This shrine was dedicated to the God Nodens, whom the Romans equated with their god Mars. Nodens was the Celtic name of an Irish deity, Nuadda of the Silver Hand,16 and Nuadda/Nodens was the owner of The Sword of Nuadda, one of the Four Treasures of the Tuatha dé Danann. With this very unusual shrine dedicated to the owner of the sword that was one of the "Four Hallows of Ireland" in the Forest of Dean, could the wielder of the sword be far away? Could this be a clue to the intended Horcrux object?

Interestingly enough, Godric Gryffindor was not the only magical inhabitant of Godric's Hollow. There also lived Bowman Wright, whose "mother was a witch, and father was a Muggle. He is famous for combining his loves of magic, science and sports by creating the Golden Snitch, which greatly improved the game of Quidditch," 17 in the fourteenth or fifteenth century.
It also makes sense from the Bowman Wright standpoint to locate Godric's Hollow at Lydney. The Modesty Rabnott Snidget Reservation is just a short broomstick ride across the Severn River in Somerset.18 In his time, the Snidgets were an endangered species, but essential to the game of Quidditch, and the Reservation was one of the few places where they remained. Bowman Wright could have crossed the Severn River, turned right at a town called Dursley (which had already been established by the fifteenth century19) and headed south to study the flight patterns of the Snidgets. Through his efforts, he saved the game of Quidditch by manufacturing a perfect metal duplicate of the birds. Unless Wright lived on the Reservation itself, he must have been nearby to have observed enough of their movements to conclude it was possible to make a metal copy: the Golden Snitch.
But if Godric Gryffindor and Bowman Wright did live in this area, they are not the only wizards to have done so:
Stephen Fry: Where were you at school?
JK Rowling: In the Forest of Dean – that's why Hagrid has that accent; He comes from The Forest of Dean.20
One wonders – at whose house did the Potters stay in Godric's Hollow? It does not appear to have been their own. Perhaps it once belonged to Hagrid's father, since Hagrid stayed at Hogwarts during the school year, and that was why Hagrid was chosen and able to fly to Godric's Hollow that night. As the rightful owner of the home, the Fidelius Charm would not apply to him; the fears of Dumbledore with regard to Bellatrix and Grimmauld Place would attest to that.21 From there, he could have taken Harry to some other safe location in Wales, later to fly over Bristol and meet up with Dumbledore at Privet Drive on the next evening as prearranged. Sounds like a plan. And, if his home has been demolished, it explains why Hagrid lives year round now at Hogwarts.
Placing Godric's Hollow in the western part of the UK fits with the Western/Classical location of the fire element, Gryffindor's element.
Figure 3: Placement of the Four Elements With Their Directions
It is the tradition to have four houses, but in this case, I wanted them to correspond roughly to the four elements. So Gryffindor is fire, Ravenclaw is air, Hufflepuff is earth, and Slytherin is water, hence the fact that their common room is under the lake. So again, it was this idea of harmony and balance, that you had four necessary components and by integrating them you would make a very strong place.23
This placement is in conflict with the elements associated with the Four Treasures of the Tuatha dé Danann. After all, the element of the Sword of Nuada is air, Ravenclaw's element. The element for the Dagda's cauldron, which is analogous to Hufflepuff's cup, is water and Hufflepuff's element is earth. The Stone of Fal bears no resemblance to a locket but is a large rock perched still on the Hill of Tara and its element is earth.24 However, Rowling is not writing an allegory of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lebor_Gab%C3%A1la_%C3%89renn">Lebor Gabála Érenn, and if she gave Harry Potter her birthday, why would she not also give him her home?
Lydney is very close to the Welsh border and this may be what makes many believe that Godric's Hollow is in Wales. But all the evidence leads to Lydney in Gloucestershire being the true Godric's Hollow. And if this is correct, this leads to some tantalizing hints as to the identity of an "heir of Gryffindor" and the object that was to be Voldemort's final Horcrux. If the sword were going to be the last Horcrux, it would explain why one of the Potters was supposed to survive that night. "Only a true Gryffindor could have pulled that out of the hat." 25
And Voldemort, being a Slytherin, would need a Gryffindor to summon the sword. So if the sword is to be the final Horcrux, this will help Harry to identify and track down a Ravenclaw Horcrux – as there are four founders, four elements with their corresponding four points of the compass, and four "Deathly Hallows." It will be a difficult journey for Harry, and it starts at Godric's Hollow, but first Harry must find his way there.

Co-Hosting With Craig Norris on CBC Radio 3 – S04E25
It has finally happened, I got to be co-hosting with Craig Norris on CBC Radio 3. How did it go? It went pretty good, aside that I was getting nervous the week and days before it happened. It's all in the preparation. Here's the link to the blog entry from CBC Radio 3, http://tinyurl.com/odv2sz
Overall, I hope anyone who listened enjoyed what I had to say and the song choices as well. During one of the host break, I said "Wu-Tang (as in the rap group, Wu-Tang Clan)," and it's a nod to the two guys at Fundamentally Sound on CKCU-FM, Dennis and C.J. "Showtime". As they usually call me that in their shout-outs. :)
Sorry for the Photoshop job on the photo. The original photo was with Pedro Mendes, producer of the R3-30 with Craig Norris. It was taken on April 24, 2009 when R3 was doing a live taping for Black Mountain/Ladyhawk/Pack A.D. for B.C. Scene.
At least Craig got a good laugh at the photo job. The original photo is on this link, http://www.flickr.com/photos/lenny-wu/3472674616/.
Here's the Flickr link to previous Listener Co-Host Initiative images. http://www.flickr.com/photos/cbcradio3/sets/72157616677894211/.
I'm hopeful that it will be replayed on Sunday morning on CBC Radio 3. Let me know if you liked my co-hosting.
Comic Talk
I haven't been able to talk about comic books in awhile but the buzz right now is Archie Comics. Yes, Archie Andrews will be proposing to Veronica Lodge in August at comic book store. In my opinion, I kind of prefer Archie going for Betty instead. I used to read Archie Comics when I was young. Let the joking go ahead.
News sites like the CBC (story linked) have been talking about it. Will I be picking up a copy come August? Probably.
Aside from that, I still pick up the usual Marvel Comics but I am not getting too many comics due to a lack of interesting stories and possible price hikes to over $4.
Oh! I Forgot That Punch-Out!! Returned (Entry Updated on May 30, 2009)
Due to not updating a lot on my blog, I had the opportunity to play Punch-Out!! on the Nintendo Wii. The game was released on May 20, 2009 and the irony is that I did not brag to friends that I got the game as it felt like a quiet update. So far, I have enjoyed the updated revival of this beloved NES classic. Mind you, I never got to play Punch-Out!! (NES) and Super Punch-Out!! on SNES when I was young. Since getting the Nintendo Wii, I got to download Punch-Out!! and Super Punch-Out!! through Virtual Console. I gotta say that I had trouble playing through Punch-Out!! because I never experienced it when I was younger. Super Punch-Out!! came out around at the end of March (I downloaded it in April), as I didn't play much of the SNES version a lot. On the Wii's update, I found the controls to be looser than the original version. In a way, it's easier than the two previous versions. Overall, I am totally enjoying the game but I am sticking to the NES classic control setting as I did try the motion with the Wii Balance Board and I am used to it. I would probably use the Remote and Nunchuk with friends for fun. A beloved classic for new generations is a definite must.
Close to a Season Finale
I am nearing my end for season 4 of my blog and so far, I haven't been able to go to a lot of concerts or events for May. OK, I did checked out the tulips and checking out the Canadian Museum of Nature on Victoria Day. No photos were being used. I hope there will be something to do for this coming weekend as we end May.
Hanging Out at Fundamentally Sound – S04E24
I was thinking that this would be another lame or dubious entry being written. Well, I returned from a short "hiatus" in hanging out during CKCU-FM's funktacular show, Fundamentally Sound. I decided to take some photos during the show. As usual, there were the hijinks and humour coming from Dennis Molnar and C.J. "Showtime".
Here's the link to the photos, http://www.flickr.com/photos/lenny-wu/sets/72157617764311519/.
As I will explain, some of the shots were taken when C.J. "Showtime" was rapping as a Canadian politican. I won't say who, but that will be the extent to it as I don't want to put embarrassment to the fellow.
Sorry for the lame photo on top because I couldn't pick a decent photo to go along for this entry.
Afterwards (well, a long one due to killing time), I went to Avant Garde Bar & Gift Shop for the Ennuie CD release party/concert. The irony to the CD release was one half of the duo will be away for five months, an odd time to release the new album and be away for several months. I couldn't watch the whole concert as there were a lot of people standing but there was one notable cover song that the duo performed. It was Saturday Night by Whigfield. It sure brought up memories from junior high school. Oh boy!
Overall, it was an excellent show for Ennuie. Sorry, didn't take photos for it.
The Start of the Summer Movie Blockbuster
I finally got to watch X-Men Origins: Wolverine. What did I think of it? It was ok but I am pretty disappointed at the Hollywood style to the comic characters. If I wasn't a comic fan, then I would enjoy it but there were points that I felt nitpicky at the aspect of the film.
I was hoping to watch Star Trek on opening day but it might be uncertain when I will go watch it.
Why the "interest" for Star Trek? If you go back to my previous entry at #22. You will know why.
Last thing, I planning to do two more entries as I will follow the TV shows ending this month for the season. I will do Summer entries by using a new page and hopefully no humour coming from me. Read the rest of this entry »

McCain Manages to Get Only 38 Percent in Homestate of Arizona
by Jonathan Singer, Fri Jun 27, 2008 at 03:55:27 AM EDT
It's tough times when a party's presidential nominee manages to score just 38 percent support in his home state (even when the poll in question didn't push leaners, and thus more than a third of respondents are deemed "undecided").
Republican presidential candidate John McCain is apparently leading Democrat Barack Obama in the race for Arizona, a poll released Tuesday says.
The statewide poll found 38 percent of voters said they would probably vote for McCain, while 28 percent said they would likely back Obama. Thirty-four percent of voters were undecided.
The poll of 350 registered voters was conducted June 20-21 by the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communications at Arizona State University and Channel Eight/KAET-TV. The survey has a sampling error of plus or minus 5.2 percentage points.
The last presidential poll by KAET, taken in late April, said McCain had roughly the same advantage over Obama.
Because the overall sample size for this poll wasn't super large and the head-to-head question was only asked to half of respondents (the other half being asked their opinion of a match-up between John McCain and a Barack Obama/Hillary Clinton ticket), the margin of error for this question is fairly high. A rough estimate this morning puts it somewhere in the neighborhood of plus or minus 7.5 percentage points. However, even when that number is factored in, McCain doesn't look particularly strong judging by these numbers, with his support likely ranging from somewhere between about 30 points to about 46 points -- not the type of level of support you expect from a nominee hoping to be competitive around the country.
In short, if this is the kind of tepid support McCain is seeing in Arizona -- where voters know him and his shenanigans better than any other voters in the country outside of the Beltway -- what is his level of backing around the country going to look like come November when voters from Alaska to Florida have begun to learn about the real McCain?

After Hurricane Katrina forced her family from New Orleans, Juanita Butler bought a home in the Remington Valley subdivision.
"My dad's in a wheelchair," Juanita said. "I never imagined myself being in one, but bad things happen."
And the bad thing that happened to Juanita could happen to anyone driving on the North Freeway feeder road between Rankin and Airtex.
"It's just a close call everyday, all day, everyday," Juanita's son Brian Butler said.
We're going to show you the dangerous roll of the dice we've discovered.
Here's how it works.
To enter the subdivision drivers could take the Rankin Road exit. Then they would have plenty of time to change lanes. But to avoid getting caught at the light at Rankin, some drivers take the Airtex exit. But to make the turn into the subdivision, drivers have to immediately cross three lanes of traffic.
We saw it over and over and over again.
"All I remember is screaming," Juanita said. "I remember pain."
It was April 28th in broad daylight. Brian was driving right behind his mother.
"And out of nowhere this guy comes off the Airtex exit," Brian said.
"And tried to jump in front of all the four lanes of traffic and get in the subdivision before me and that's how he hit me," Juanita said.
"Clips the back of her bumper and flips the truck over," Brian said.
"Flipped over and flipped over it flipped four and a half times," Juanita said.
"I see it flipping. Bam, bam, bam," Brian said.
"It was like in slow motion. I felt and saw every turn," Juanita said.
"I can't even say what was going through my head," Brian said. "I was like ****. You're going to have to edit that."
"I can say this," Juanita said. "I know Jesus was in the truck with me. I know he was I saw him. I heard him."
"I jumped out of the car screaming, 'Ma, are you all right are you all right'?" Brian said.
"I remember him talking to me," Juanita said. "Work with me Mama, work with me Mama."
"I grabbed her under her armpits and I dragged her out," Brian said.
Juanita spent two weeks in the hospital. She's been confined to a wheelchair for more than 6 months.
"It's almost impossible to go out there without seeing people jump off the freeway and come into the subdivision," Juanita said. "It's impossible. You go out there for 15 minutes and you'll see it."
And as you can see Juanita is not exaggerating. We saw it time and time again. So how many times does this dangerous maneuver cause a crash? FOX 26 Investigates decided to find out.
According to data we received from the Harris County Sheriff's Department, 42 accidents occurred near the subdivision entrance in just the last year and a half. Twelve of those accidents were considered major where at least one person suffered injuries.
"We are familiar with the traffic movements that are happening on a consistent basis in the area of I-45 and Airtex," Raquelle Lewis with the Texas Department of Transportation said.
But TXDoT said drivers doing this dangerous maneuver are not breaking the law and the subdivision's entrance meets all the states' standards.
"Well certainly what we will continue to do is look at the situation (and) monitor what the activity is in the area if there are additional modifications we can make that are in our discretion," Lewis said.
"It's just like playing Russian Roulette. All day, everyday," Brian said.
And it seems drivers keep pulling the trigger. The shortcut can dramatically change your life. Just ask Juanita Butler.
"I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for God," Juanita said.

Ben Rhydding gravel pits nature reserve opens
1:47pm Thursday 8th May 2014 in Local news
The official opening of a new nature reserve at former gravel pits in Ben Rhydding attracted dozens of visitors.
The Lord Mayor of Bradford, Councillor Khadim Hussain joined local conservation and wildlife groups at Ben Rhydding Gravel Pits Nature Reserve, off Coutances Way, for the event, on Tuesday, which included a guided walk around the site.
More than 60 people turned up for the event. The site was recently officially declared a Local Nature Reserve (LNR) – only the third to be declared in the Bradford District – following consultation with Natural England.
The potential of the land was recognised almost half a century ago.
The site is managed by Wharfedale Naturalists Society in partnership with Bradford Council.
The partnership started in 2007 due to concerns over the site's deterioration particularly due to invasive weeds. A management plan was agreed to maintain and enhance the sites biodiversity. Implementation has been though regular volunteer work parties.
- We have been asked to point out that the photograph in last week's edition showed the lagoon on neighbouring Ilkley Angling Association land, not the nature reserve itself.

Florida Georgia Line Concert Tickets
Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard were mutual friends while both attending Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee. Both had grown up loving the music of their churches as well as a wide variety of popular music, especially Country music. Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard started off writing songs together, and after a well-received performance at a writer's night in Nashville, they decided to take a shot as artists as well as song writers. Who would have thought that they would become Florida Georgia Line, one of the hottest Country music acts working today?
Once they graduated from Belmont, Kelley and Hubbard set out on the open road playing gigs wherever they were welcome. While popular, the demand for Florida Georgia Line concert tickets was not then what it is now. The more they played together, the bigger the venues became and the larger their fan base grew, as well as demand for concert tickets for the Country music duo. Florida Georgia Line's first EP, Anything Like Me, released in December of 2010 included the song "Black Tears," which was also recorded by Jason Aldean on his 2012 album Night Train. After signing a management contract with Big Loud Mountain in December of 2011, Kelley and Hubbard got to work on their second EP, It'z Just What We Do, which was released in May of 2012. "Cruise," the first track off their second EP, was such a huge hit that Kelley and Hubbard sold over 100,000 copies of it themselves before they had a deal with a record company. Finally in July of 2012, Florida Georgia Line signed a record deal with Republic Nashville, which is a part of the Big Machine Label Group.
Since signing with Republic Nashville, Florida Georgia Line has recorded their first studio album, titled Here's to the Good Times, and their single "Cruise" has hit the number one spot on both the US Country and US Country Airplay charts. At the Academy of Country Music Awards in 2013, the duo won the Wop New Vocal Duo or Group award. This is one of the newest names in country music so hurry up and get your Florida Georgia Line tickets today and see the duo live!

(Removal of a Child's Appendix)
A pediatric appendectomy is a surgery to remove a child's appendix. The appendix is a small pouch that's attached to the large intestine on the lower right side of the abdomen.
The appendectomy may be done as an open surgery, which involves cutting into the abdomen and directly removing the organ. Or it may be done through one or several smaller incisions (cuts) using a camera and small instruments. This is called a laparoscopic surgery.
The function of the appendix is still not fully clear to medical experts, but it doesn't appear to be an essential organ. What is known is that it produces proteins called immunoglobulins, which help fight infection in the body. Sometimes the appendix becomes blocked. Mucus trapped inside can allow bacteria to thrive. The resulting infection and inflammation is called appendicitis. This illness is especially common in children, teens, and young adults. A young person with this problem may need an appendectomy.
An appendix that is inflamed can burst if it is not removed. If this occurs, infection can spread throughout the abdomen and cause peritonitis, a potentially dangerous condition.
As with other surgeries, the possible risks of this procedure include:
Problems from the anesthesia that's used to put your child to sleep. These include breathing problems and reactions to the anesthesia drugs.
In addition, other possible risks include:
Leakage from the large intestine, where the appendix was removed
The need for a longer hospital stay and medicines such as antibiotics if the appendix has ruptured before the surgery
Injuries to nearby organs during the surgery
There may be other risks, depending on your child's specific medical condition. Be sure to discuss any concerns with your child's doctor before the procedure.
This is usually an emergency surgery, so your child may not have a lot of time to prepare for it. The health care team will want to know when your child last ate. That's because having food in the stomach can cause problems when your child is under anesthesia. If the surgery is planned ahead of time, ask the doctor when your child should stop eating and drinking beforehand.
Before the procedure begins, the health care team may give your child an injection of medication to relax him or her. They will also put an intravenous (IV) needle into a vein to allow them to later give medicine to put your child to sleep.
During an open procedure, the surgeon will make a cut into the skin and the fat underneath. The cut will be one to two inches in length. Upon reaching the appendix, the surgeon will cut it loose and remove it. The surgeon will then close the opening in the intestine and the incision in the skin.
During a laparoscopic procedure, the surgeon will make one or several small cuts in the abdomen. A tiny camera will be placed inside through one cut so the surgeon can see the procedure on a video screen. Air will be put into the abdomen through a tube to allow the surgeon to see better. The surgeon will then remove the appendix using small instruments. When finished, the surgeon will stitch shut the opening in the intestine and any incisions in the skin. Laparoscopic surgery using one small cut is called single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS).
If your child's appendix has burst, a drainage tube may be left in the abdomen to drain away fluid.
On occasion, the surgeon may plan a laparoscopic surgery, but need to switch to an open surgery because it seems like a safer option.
After the surgery, your child will go to a recovery room before being transferred to a regular room. Your child will receive pain medicine through the IV, then later by mouth.
Your child will be encouraged to get up and move around later that day or the next day. After laparoscopic surgery, your child may feel cramps or shoulder pain from the air that was put into the abdomen. Children usually go home a day or two after the surgery. If the appendix ruptured before the surgery, your child may need to stay in the hospital for up to a week. In these cases, your child may need IV antibiotics for a week or more.
Children will usually need to avoid physical activities until the surgeon says it's OK during a follow-up visit. Follow the health care provider's directions on bathing and taking care of the incision.
Contact your child's doctor if you notice symptoms including:
A fever higher than 101°F (38.3°C)
Redness or swelling around the incision
Green or yellow drainage from any incision
Pain that increases, rather than decreases, as hours or days pass
Abdominal swelling

Christian Horner fears teams could be penalised by the FIA's fuel flow sensors, which would ultimately decide the outcome of grands prix.
This season, for the first time, the Formula One teams are limited to 100kgs of fuel per grand prix with a maximum fuel flow rate of 100kg/h.
The rate is measured by a fuel flow sensor provided by the FIA.
However, after just one grand prix, the technology has already been questioned.
Several teams found the sensors to be inaccurate during the opening race weekend in Australia prompting Red Bull to ignore them and rely on their own data.
This resulted in Daniel Ricciardo being excluded from the Australian GP results as, according to the FIA sensor, his RB10 had consistently exceeded the fuel flow rate.
And unless a reliable method of measuring the rate is found, Horner fears teams could be penalised while others benefit from a better reading.
"We have got to find a better way - especially when the margins are so fine and the knock-on in performance is so significant," the Red Bull team boss told Autosport.
"Depending on the calibration of your sensor, it will determine your competitiveness, which is completely wrong.
"Teams will end up buying hundreds of sensors, as some manufacturers already have, to try to pick the best.
"It ends up like the tricks in go-karting, where you go through carburettors to try to find the best ones. I don't think that is an acceptable way of moving forward."
He added: "We know that some cars' fuel sensors didn't work at all in Melbourne - so we need to find a more robust and reliable way of having confidence in the FIA measurements.
"And I think that is for the teams, and the technical guys at the FIA to find a solution, because there is too much at stake to be reliant on a sensor that is drifting around or unreliable.
"F1 costs millions and millions of pounds. There needs to be a better form of measurement than what we currently have."
Meanwhile, the Brit told Sky Sports that he is confident Red Bull will be vindicated when they take their appeal before the FIA's Court of Appeal in Paris on April 14
"We're appealing on the grounds that we do not believe we've broken the rules," said Horner.
"We're extremely confident we haven't exceeded the 100 kilograms of fuel per hour that is permitted to be utilised by the car and the engine.
"That was the reason for our appeal, we feel we've a strong case, and it will be down to the appeal court to ultimately decide."
He added: "Our whole case, the whole dispute, is based on which reading is correct.
"We have a sensor (that of the FIA) that is drifting, isn't reading correctly, versus a fuel rail we know is calibrated and hasn't varied throughout the weekend.
"It has subsequently been checked, has been found to not be faulty, hasn't moved or varied at all since it was installed on to the car prior to the weekend.
"So our argument is very simple - that we haven't broken the technical regulations, haven't exceeded the fuel-flow rate, and the sensor, as we will be able to demonstrate in the appeal, is erroneous."

Dancing with the Stars' Season 18's sexiest costumes
A day in the life of Jack Bauer would go so much easier if anyone would just listen to him when he barks commands like, "Stop that couple!" Fat chance when what seems like half the armed personnel of the CIA's London bureau have guns pointed at the good guy instead of the fleeing bad guys.
Will they never learn? Apparently not. Which is no doubt exactly the desire of the fans who've been waiting four long years — that's roughly 35,064 hours in real time — for 24, one of TV's most electrifying thrillers, and Kiefer Sutherland as its beleaguered yet seemingly indestructible hero to snap back into action. The novelty — and thus, a bit of the edge — is gone as Fox's 12-part 24: Live Another Day seeks to prove that less is more, slowly revving up the comfortably formulaic engine while visceral split-screen editing once again intensifies the literally explosive twists. And yet, because a sad, mad, badass Jack Bauer is the only Jack we've ever known, there's something grimly satisfying when he mutters bleakly to one of his few allies, "I don't have any friends."

By John Toole
---- — Two movies made in New Hampshire are among the "603 Reasons" people say the Granite State is special.
The Academy Award winning "On Golden Pond," filmed at Squam Lake and starring the Fondas — Henry and Jane — as well as Katharine Hepburn, ranked No. 68.
"Jumanji," the fantasy adventure filmed in Keene and starring Robin Williams and Kirsten Dunst, came in at No. 238.
"I can send you a list of 10 states with tax incentives that can list 100 movies," said Tim Egan, New Hampshire Production Coalition president.
Egan and the coalition are now advocating New Hampshire join 46 other states in offering tax incentives to lure filmmakers to the Granite State.
The proposal has the support of the New Hampshire Film and Television Office.
The House Ways and Means Committee is studying the issue, which is expected to go before the full Legislature next session.
"Film is about economic development and it's about jobs," Film and Television Office director Matt Newton told the panel in testimony last winter. "We've lost a lot of them."
He pointed to "Labor Day," a film starring Kate Winslet and Josh Brolin, coming out this holiday season.
Primarily made in Massachusetts, "Labor Day" included a single day of filming at Canobie Lake Park, Newton said.
He gave lawmakers an accounting of what the production company estimated it spent on filming and related services such as hotel rooms, as well as a count of local hires.
"So there's $13 million and 300 jobs that went south on a film that is about New Hampshire, written by a New Hampshire author, Joyce Maynard," he told lawmakers. "That was our film, that was our baby."
Egan reflected on the lost opportunity last week.
"When the movie 'Labor Day' comes out, it could be someone's memorable movie — one about New Hampshire, from a book by a New Hampshire author — but unfortunately all but one day was shot right over the border in Massachusetts," Egan said. "Even a small incentive could have given New Hampshire some memorable locations and the revenue."
Egan maintains films provide economic impact beyond the set, bringing benefits to businesses that aid them.
"I think we're missing out," he said.
The state also has been at a disadvantage landing films starring Adam Sandler, who grew up in New Hampshire and attended local schools.
Newton related to lawmakers how the film office had provided photos of New Hampshire landmarks to the production company for one Sandler movie.
The company then showed the photos to other states, ones offering tax incentives, and asked what they could do to match the New Hampshire locations, he testified.
"That's what we're up against," he said.
The discussion is not just about the direct economic effect a movie might have on New Hampshire.
Newton told lawmakers there are tourism dollars at stake, too.
He pointed to what "On Golden Pond" has meant for the state.
"Thirty years later, I'm still getting calls from people who want to come to New Hampshire just to see where that was filmed and experience that," he said.
Filmmaking can be a tourism tool for the state, Egan said.
"I call it a postcard for the state," he said.
Encouraging the making of movies in New Hampshire also can keep talented young people who want to work in the field at home, instead of leaving for other states, Egan said.
"On Golden Pond" has so much meaning to people because it is uniquely New Hampshire, Egan said.
"They connected the story with the geography," he said.
"On Golden Pond" remains the only major motion picture filmed beginning to end in New Hampshire, Newton said last week.
"Jumanji" also filmed in Canada.
More typical New Hampshire film experiences are movies like Steve McQueen's "The Thomas Crown Affair," which had him landing a glider in a field in Salem.
"Once Around," starring Richard Dreyfuss and Holly Hunter, included scenes filmed in the Wolfeboro area.
"We've had a lot of scenes filmed here," Newton said.
Some smaller, independent projects have spent more time in the state.
Screenwriter and producer Josh Whedon's "In Your Eyes," an independent movie, filmed in Windham and other communities last year, Newton said.
Those advocating for a tax credit for filmmakers see it as something that only will benefit the state.
Rep. Frank Sapareto, R-Derry, questioned Newton at a hearing about whether a tax credit would make a difference.
"I think it would be successful," he told Sapareto.
Newton maintains the state won't get blockbusters, but still could pick up movies with mid-sized budgets by attracting them with a tax credit.
Without a tax credit, New Hampshire may have to settle for those Academy Award memories from "On Golden Pond."
"We're at a disadvantage without one," Newton said.

KHQ.COM - On Tuesday members of the Airway Heights Police Department, Kalispel Tribal Police, Washington State Gambling Commission, Homeland Security Investigations, US Border Patrol, United States Marshals, Spokane County Sheriff's Office, Spokane Valley Police Department, Spokane Police Department, Liberty Lake Police Department and Cheney Police Department, conducted search warrants on eight Spa's, and six residences in the City of Spokane, the City of Spokane Valley and Spokane County.
The search warrants were conducted based on a year long investigation into prostitution, promoting prostitution, money laundering, criminal profiteering and controlled substances. Numerous items were seized for evidentiary value as well as civil seizures for items that were purchased using funds derived from those illegal activities.
The investigators have taken several key individuals into custody where they will conduct follow up interviews as permitted by state and federal laws.
Early on in the investigation it was determined that a special inquiry be implemented. A special inquiry judge and prosecutor were assigned. The investigators have been working closely with the special inquiry prosecutor to ensure the successful completion of this investigation.

AnOther day, AnOther magazine cover/fashion line/TV show/Halloween costume appropriating Native American culture.
British fashion mag, AnOther, is the latest culprit, dressing Michelle Williams up in a headdress, wig and braids. There's been a lot of controversy over labelling the cover a demonstration of "red face", when the image is in black and white so it's unclear whether Williams' skin colour has been altered.
To me, that's by the by; as Sherri Shepherd said on Wednesday's episode of The View, if a community of people (in this case, Native American people) are coming out to say they find the image offensive, then it probably is, regardless of whether white people are crying "politcal correctness" or not.

One person was injured and a former employee arrested Monday
afternoon following a shooting at the Dayton Veterans Affairs Medical Center in
Dayton, Ohio.
Police identified the alleged shooter as Neil Moore, 59. Police said
Moore worked in the housekeeping department of the VA.
Dayton Police Chief Richard Biehl said the shooter walked into a
break room in the basement of the medical center and shot a current VA employee
in the ankle. Police said the worker, identified as Paul Burnside, was expected
to recover.
director of the VA in Dayton says they don't have metal detectors on the
property, they don't search patients or employees, but those could be policies
that change after the violence seen on Monday.
Should places like the VA allow people to carry concealed weapons?
Currently, there is a weapons ban in place on their property. Many times, signs
are displayed prohibiting the presence of guns on the property.
Despite that, these shootings are still happening.
"It just lets them know that nobody's armed, nobody's there
to stop them. The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good
guy with a gun," said Kyle Hufford, president of Kyle's Gunshop.
Ted Froats, public affairs officer for the VA Medical Center in
Dayton says the hospital has those signs.
Should those signs come down, and allow people to carry? That's
the question.
"I honestly think it should be expanded," said Dan
Moeller, who lives in Milford.
But, for Moeller, he's on the other side of a fine line when it
comes to hospitals.
"On one hand, you want people to be protected. But, on
the other hand, that's a place where people should go and feel safe
already. They do have security on the premises. That should be
enough," said Moeller.
Joe Kalil is the constable of Boone County as well at the director
of the POST Program,
an initiative designed to train school personnel to carry a concealed weapon in
the hallways. He tells FOX19 that when he became constable, he was able
to get those signs taken down at Boone County buildings, and some buildings in
Kenton County.
"It actually makes that building, regardless of where it is
or who owns it, more susceptible to danger," said Kalil.
On top of that, he'd also like to see a wider ability to carry a
concealed weapon.
"It's a God-given right for human beings to be able to
protect themselves. Why are we removing that right from the law-abiding
citizen?" asks Kalil.

"I think your average law abiding citizen, there's no problem

Bowler Shoots Self In Leg [Video]
A bowler at Jupiter Lanes Bowling Alley in Jupiter Florida accidentally shot himself in the leg. No word on how he was bowling or if his game threatened to shoot him in the foot.
Jupiter police say the man's own gun discharged on him, injuring his leg. Several witnesses say the man had the gun in his pocket when it went off, terrifying other players which was a strike against him.
He was taken to the hospital and police have spared filing any charges against him.
