This application is a continuation under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) of PCT/CA01/00829 filed Jun. 7, 2001 and published in English as WO 01/93949 A1 on Dec. 13, 2001, which claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No.: 60/210,478 filed Jun. 9, 2000, which application and publication are incorporated herein by reference.
The invention relates to the use of magnetic shielding and magnetic field stimulation in a method for the treatment, diagnosis and assessment of disease. The invention also provides a device for the shielding of magnetic fields for therapy and treatment of disease.
It has been demonstrated that an animals' behaviour can be altered by exposure to extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic fields. This includes navigation, migration and homing in birds, insects and newts (Deutschlander et al, 1998) and alteration of opioid-induced analgesia in molluscs, birds and rodents (Betancur et al, 1994). There is also evidence that extremely low frequency magnetic fields have effects on behaviour in humans (Thomas et al, 1998; Papi et al, 1995). Increasing evidence suggests that pulsed ELF fields, also called Cnps, can be used for both therapeutic (Thomas et al, 1998) and diagnostic (Thomas et al, 2000) purposes. However, the magnetic field intensities required for diagnostic and treatment uses are approximately 40 to 200 μT, a magnetic field intensity similar to the Earth's magnetic field. The electric power required to generate fields of such intensity is very large and requires a fixed and relatively expensive apparatus.
Recent experiments have demonstrated that under ELF magnetic field shielding, rodents could sense the absence of weak (<0.1 μT) ELF fields (Del Seppia et al, 2000). Stress-induced analgesia appeared to be attenuated or abolished in mice placed in a magnetic field shielded box where there is an absence of ambient ELF fields when the wide-spectrum geomagnetic field is effectively zeroed. Under geomagnetic shielded conditions, animals appeared sensitive to weak ELF magnetic fields. Under shielded conditions, the behaviour of mice was modified by the absence of an ELF magnetic field of 0.1 μT intensity compared to a nominal 10-100 μT MF needed to modify behaviour (Choleris et al, 2001).
It has also been demonstrated (Kavaliers and Ossenkopp, 1993) that exposure to ELF magnetic fields (circa 100 μT) can attenuate opioid-induced analgaesia. Paradoxically, it has been suggested that daily repeated exposures to such ELF fields may induce analgesia (Kavaliers and Ossenkopp, 1985, 1993).
The Applicant has now developed a method involving daily repeated exposures to reduced ambient fields to induce analgesia in humans for clinical use. The Applicant has demonstrated that analgesia may be effectively achieved in humans by daily repeated exposures in a magnetically shielded room. Analgesia of individual body parts may also be surprisingly achieved by repeated magnetic shielding of that part or of a related anatomical target implicated in the creation of the pain, i.e. a related pain center, as alternative to shielding the entire body within a magnetically shielded room.
The Applicant has demonstrated that pulsed ELF fields of approximately 100 μT may be generated within a portable, battery-operated device that can effectively provide intensity fields to a specified, location in order to alleviate a variety of disorders. Lower intensity fields may also be effectively utilized with simultaneously shielding of the target tissue from external ambient ELF fields including the Earth's geomagnetic field. This renders portable ELF and pulsed ELF magnetic field therapy devices useful for both diagnosis and treatment of disease.
The present invention is directed to methods and devices using magnetic shielding and magnetic field stimulation for the treatment (i.e. pain treatment), diagnosis and assessment of disease. The devices of the invention comprise in one embodiment a magnetic field shield. In another embodiment the device comprises a magnetic field generator covered by or embedded within a magnetic field shield. The shield can be targeted to the whole body (i.e. a room can be shielded), or it can be a portable shield device used to target a pain trigger point (e.g. a sleeve covering a limb). It is understood that a magnetic field shield also provides electric field shielding.
In one embodiment, the device of the present invention for providing diagnostic and therapeutic effects comprises a portable magnetic field shield and a weak pulsed magnetic field generator within that shield. This generator may utilize either household current or batteries as sources of electrical power. In a further embodiment of the invention, the device may comprise solely an effective magnetic field shield such as a magnetically shielded room where daily exposures of about 2 hours per day provides pain relief to humans and animals experiencing acute or chronic pain.
Acute exposure (approximately 30 minutes duration) in a shielded room to Cnps of the order of 0.1 μT in intensity is therapeutic for the treatment of pain, anxiety and depression. The Cnps which are preferred for use in the method and devices of the present invention are as described in Applicant's U.S. Pat. No. 6,234,953 (the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference). Such Cnps are useful when of 10 to 1000 times smaller magnitude. Such an acute set of Cnps exposures in a shielded room allows for the diagnosis and classification of disease and disability.
According to an aspect of the invention is method for the treatment of physiological disorder in a subject, the method comprising shielding of ambient magnetic fields over the entire body or a portion of the body of a subject for a time effective to reduce and/or alleviate the physiological disorder.
In accordance with another aspect of the present invention is a method for the treatment of acute or chronic pain in a subject, the method comprising repeatedly shielding of ambient magnetic fields over the entire body or a portion of the body of the subject for a time effective to reduce and/or alleviate the acute or chronic pain.
In accordance with another aspect of the present invention is a method for the treatment, diagnosis and/or assessment of diseases in a subject, the method comprising repeatedly shielding of ambient magnetic fields over the entire body or a portion of the body of the subject and simultaneously providing ELF magnetic fields. The subject may be a human or animal.
In accordance with still another aspect of the present invention is a method for the treatment of physiological disorder in a subject, the method comprising simultaneously shielding of ambient magnetic fields over the entire body or a portion of the body of a subject and providing extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic fields for a time effective to reduce and/or alleviate the physiological disorder.
It is preferred that the intensity of magnetic field stimulation needed for therapeutic and diagnostic procedures is reduced 10- to 1000-fold if the magnetic field stimulation is carried out under ambient magnetic field shielded conditions.
According to a further aspect of the present invention is the use of a portable wearable magnetic shield for treating localized acute or chronic pain in a subject.
According to still a further aspect of the invention is the use of a portable wearable shield simultaneously with magnetic field therapy for treating localized acute or chronic pain in a subject.
According to still a further aspect of the invention is the use of a portable wearable shield simultaneously with magnetic field therapy for treating skeletal abnormalities, such as but not limited to non-union bone fractures or osteoporosis.

According to another aspect of the present invention is a wearable, portable magnetic field therapy device, the device comprising a magnetic field shield wrap and a magnetic field generating coil. The coil may be battery-operated.
According to another aspect of the present invention is a portable magnetic field therapy device, the device comprising;
According to another aspect of the present invention is a portable magnetic field therapy device, the device comprising;
Other aspects, features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following detailed description. It should be understood, however, that the detailed description and the specific examples while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the detailed description.
The invention will now be described in relation to the drawings in which:
The applicant has now demonstrated that magnetic field shielding alone or in conjunction with the application of ELF magnetic fields is useful and effective for the treatment of a variety of disorders in humans and animals. Such disorders include but are not limited to acute pain, chronic pain, anxiety, depression, phantom pain, orthopaedic disorders and psychiatric disorders.
The present invention uses magnetic field shielding either alone or in combination with low intensity magnetic fields to provide treatment, assessment and diagnosis of disease in a subject. This may be accomplished by magnetic shielding to an entire body in a shielded room or a selected body portion by the use of small wearable and portable devices (
Magnetic field shielding can also be used to diagnose a disease state or disorder based on differential physiological effects as a result of magnetic field exposure.
In one embodiment, magnetic shielding in the form of a small wearable and portable Cnps device is particularly useful for the treatment of pain, anxiety and depression. The Cnps magnetic field generator powered by a battery source (
It is therefore advantageous, but not required to use is a shielded Cnps treatment for the first day or two followed by maintenance with the shield alone for the treatment of pain.
Magnetic field shielding is designed for attenuation of ELF frequencies from zero (shielding to the static Earth's geomagnetic field) to 2 kHz by an approximate factor of 10 or more (
Magnetic shielding for therapy and diagnosis can be used in two different ways: a) with only the shield, and b) with a Cnps magnetic field generator which produces an ELF magnetic field in a target tissue which is shielded from ambient magnetic fields other than those produced by the Cnps generator.
Magnetic Field Shield Alone
Two forms of treatment are possible with the magnetic shield alone: a) one in which the entire body is treated in a shielded room, and the other b) in which only part of the body is treated using a �wearable� magnetic shield.
ELF Magnetic field shielding increases as one moves towards the center of the device away from its open ends. The shield must be designed such that the tissue to be treated is shielded by at least a factor of 10. This may result in different designs incorporating different shielding metals at different distances from the open ends of the magnetic shield. It is understood by one of skill in the art that the device can be of several different types of designs. For example, in one design, the sleeve is a permanent thin cylinder while in the other design, it can open and close through the use of soft shielding metal and end overlap secured by a fastener such as Velcro� strips. Another design can be configured for tight fitting around anatomical joints such as a wrist or an ankle. Still yet in another design, one end of the cylinder is capped for placement over the end of a body part such as the foot, hand or head.
Whole-Body Treatment
For the whole-body treatment, the subject is put into a shielded room for a minimum of approximately 1 hour a day everyday. This provides relief from widespread chronic pain. Subjects with acute pain of only a few days of anticipated duration should not be so treated as the exposure for the first two or three days will not provide significant relief (
Partial-Body Treatment
For the treatment of pain in part of the body that can be treated locally, i.e. with a local anaesthetic, a wearable shield is more convenient, economical and desirable than whole-body treatment. For pain anticipated to be endured more than a week, subjects may attach a portable/wearable shield (
Magnetic Field Shield Combined with a Cnps Generator
Two forms of treatment are encompassed by the present invention: a) one in which the entire body or portions of the body are exposed to Cnps magnetic fields while the entire body is magnetically shielded from external non-Cnps fields, and b) one in which only part of the body is treated using a �wearable� device comprised of a magnetic shield and Cnps generator (
Whole-Body/Large Portions of Body Treatment
In a magnetically shielded room, the subject's whole body or large portions of the subject's body are treated with Cnps pulses. These treatments may be for any condition for which Cnps or other magnetic fields are effective, including diagnostic use. The field strengths used will be 10 to 1000 times lower than those needed in an unshielded room. The subjects can be treated for either acute or chronic conditions with or without other medications including physical (electro-convulsive shock) or pharmaceutical. Treatments can be 1 to 10 times per day as treatment periods will usually be less than 30 minutes each for therapeutic use and diagnostic use may require as little as only one session.
Partial Body Treatment
For the treatment of the brain in psychiatric disorders or for diagnostic testing when only part of the body is to be exposed to Cnps, wearable devices as shown in
It is important for the generator to produce a fairly uniform field near the center of the shield. Therefore, Helmholz or Merritt volume coil designs are preferred. These coils are embedded into an electrical insulator located between the magnetic shield and the inside surface of the device. As with the shield shown in
It is understood by one of skill in the art that the magnetic shield device either alone or having a magnetic field generator incorporated therein may be provided secured by various means to a textile type of �bandage� that is durable and stretchable and can be tightly affixed to a particular anatomical region and held together by fasteners.
It is further understood by one of skill in the art that the Cnp can be delivered by surface coils rather than volume coils especially if the target is a small region such as a pain trigger point. When such surface coils are used electrical conductors may not be needed at the openings of partial body magnetic shields.
Lastly, it is also understood that one of skill in the art could readily use magnetic shielding and magnetic fields (Cnps) to devise effective treatment regimes for a variety of disorders in a subject based on the present teachings. All such treatment and usage regimes are encompassed within the scope of the present invention. As such a variety of portable magnetic shield devices alone or in combination with a Cnps generator may be developed in addition to that specifically described herein and still fall within the scope of the presently described and claimed invention.
The examples are described for the purposes of illustration and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
Methods involves in magnetic field generation referred to but not explicitly described in this disclosure and examples are reported in the scientific literature and are well known to those skilled in the art.
Analgesic Effects of Magnetic Field Shielding in Mice
The effects of a 90 min. exposure of mice to the reduced ambient magnetic fields while enclosed in a mu-metal box was demonstrated (
Repeated exposures to shielded ambient magnetic fields will was demonstrated to induce analgesia in mice (
Magnetic Shielding Treatment�Cancer Subjects�Chronic Pain
A subject with terminal cancer and in chronic pain schedules receives treatment in a magnetically shielded room for a morning period of 1 to 2 hours and a period of an additional 2 hours around the dinner hour. This allows the subject to reduce morphine use and, being more alert during these periods, is in a better state to enjoy meals and visits during breakfast and dinner. For the first week only, the subject is exposed to a Cnps generator while in the shielded room.
Psychiatric Subject in a Drug-Resistant Depression
The subject receives a 30-minute treatment once a day in the morning with a shielded Cnps exposure system. The system is placed over the head. The subject no longer requires anti-depressants with their annoying side-effects or electroconvulsive shock therapy with the required anaesthetic and does not have fears of memory loss from the procedure.
Acute Treatment of Arthritis Pain
A middle-aged man may prepare for an afternoon game of golf by strapping on two shielded Cnps devices, one over a painful wrist and the other over an arthritic ankle. Switching on the two devices enroute between home and golf course, provides relief in both sites. During the game, the wrist unit may be removed and the ankle unit turned off. Between the first and second 9 holes, treatment may be resumed.
Chronic Treatment of Arthritis Pain
A middle-aged woman suffering from chronic rheumatoid arthritis pain in both wrists may wear a shielded Cnps unit during the day, having it programmed to turn on and off once every 2 hours during the day. At night, the unit may be removed and pain medication may be taken prior to bed. The pharmaceutical pain medication is more effective because physiological tolerance is delayed as the same medication (or a reduced dose) does not have to be taken during the day.
Chronic Treatment of Phantom Limb Pain
An amputee suffering from debilitating phantom limb pain from the removal of one arm below the elbow may wear a shielded Cnps device continually. The device has three programmed modes. During the day, it switches on for 30 minutes every 2 hours, generating a Cnps pulse in the target tissue. During the evening, the magnetic shield itself provides pain relief provided geomagnetic-like fields are intermittently generated by the coils inside the shield. This exposure pattern is controlled by a programmed microprocessor which is part of the Cnps generator (
Treatment with other ELF Magnetic Fields
A subject suffering from a non-union fracture has a shield and an ELF magnetic field generator built into a limb cast. The subject's non-union fracture is exposed for 3 hours per day to pulsed ELF magnetic fields shown to stimulate union, during which time, the subject can be ambulatory. In the past, the subject would have had to report to a clinic to be exposed, but due to the shielding, much lower intensity fields can be used and these can be provided by a battery. Subjects suffering from other orthopaedic diseases such as osteoporosis can also be treated in the home a few hours a day using similar wearable devices.
The above disclosure generally describes the present invention. A more complete understanding can be obtained by reference to the following specific Examples. These Examples are described solely for purposes of illustration and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Changes in form and substitution of equivalents are contemplated as circumstances may suggest or render expedient. Although specific terms have been employed herein, such terms are intended in a descriptive sense and not for purposes of limitation.

"Beautiful house, lovely surroundings, a great place to get away from it all."
This is our second stay at this lovely house, we will no doubt be back again next year as we love it so much. Bedous is such a pretty place it is hard not to fall in love with it, the thing I miss most when back in the UK is the wonderful mountain views & the peace & quiet. The house has a great little swimming pool to relax in which is just what the doctor ordered after a long day walking. So far we have only been during the warmer weather but the house it quite well placed for some of the local ski resorts so we may well give the winter season a go in the future. There are plenty of things to do in the area & it is great for walkers & anyone who likes photography. The house is also well situated if you want to pop over to Spain for a day trip (about an hour's drive though the Somport tunnel).

TEAMS: Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays, Chicago White Sox, Houston Astros
After six weeks of false hope and maddening disappointment, Clay Buchholz will turn to the foremost authority on shoulder injuries to determine exactly what is causing his right shoulder to keep flaring. Today, Buchholz has an appointment with Dr. James Andrews in Pensacola, Fla. It usually is an ominous sign whenever a pitcher meets with Andrews. But Buchholz' trip comes at the suggestion of agent John Courtright and with the full endorsement of the Red Sox, who are exasperated that the All-Star right-hander has been unable to pitch since June 8 despite being diagnosed with only inflammation in the bursa sac of his right shoulder. "Given all Clay has dealt with, the stop and start of this process and the rehab associated with the shoulder, neck," manager John Farrell said, "more than anything, to get some verification and clarification through Dr. Andrews to put his mind at ease is as important as anything that he's dealing with from a physical standpoint." If Andrews clears Buc...

Leigh owners of missing dog issue desperate plea
Updated 4:36pm Tuesday 1st April 2014 in News
OWNERS of a missing dog have issued a desperate plea for people to come forward if they have seen him.
Homie, a podenco, went missing from his home on Broadwell Drive in Leigh three days after he arrived in the UK from Spain.
His new owners Vivien and Moreno Castellini rescued him from his home country where the dogs are often bred for hunting and then mistreated and killed when they are no longer needed.
Vivien said: "We have contacted everyone we can think of but no one has seen him since last week.
"He is really timid so although he has got a collar with the name Mylo, which we were going to call him, and our contact number on it I doubt anyone would be able to get close enough to read it.
"Hunters do terrible things to these dogs when they don't need them anymore and we just wanted to give him another chance at life.
"I feel so guilty that we have lost him. I'm not sure how much more we can do but if anyone has seen him, please get in touch."
Homie went missing after he dug his way out of the garden on March 23 and although several sightings of him were reported, the last was on Wednesday.
He also has a Spanish chip but this will not be registered with UK vets.
If you have seen Homie, call Vivien on 01942 571408 or 07435026621.

"Muscle Testing Screen for the Extremities"
Consultant: Kevin Hearon, D.C.Laminated chart with 33 illustrations
Please see pages xx, Parts #C-204 for information on how to order
Specialization in the human body has always fascinated me. In medicine, this specialization has gotten to the point of absurdity. Well do I remember when my wife had a problem with her hand. That's right -- we went to a hand doctor.
When she went up to the reception desk she was told that it would cost her $75 -- in advance -- to see the doctor. As soon as she made out the check, the receptionist called the bank to see if the check could be covered. After a 45-minute wait she was at last allowed to go into an examination room where she waited for another half-hour. At last some joker stuck his head in the door and flexed his eyeballs on her hand. "We'll need some x-rays," he said on his way out the door.
The x-rays cost almost $100 more. Naturally a check had to be written in advance -- and verified again -- before the pictures could be taken. If it hadn't cost so much for the few minutes spent on her hand, it would have been funny. She spent more time looking at the fish in the waiting room than with the doctor -- that was the one thing that didn't cost.
While we may not restrict our practice to one hand, we do have those who restrict their practice to the correction of one bone with the idea that the innate powers of the body will be stimulated to produce optimum somatic and visceral responses.
That's all right, I guess -- it's just that it's not for me and the majority of the profession. Even so, there are still some who restrict their practice to the detection of structural dysfunctions with little or no consideration of the muscles that make the structures move.
For several years I would give an examination that consisted only of the vital signs, auscultation of the heart and lungs, and a neurological and orthopedic evaluation. From the beginning I would test for muscle tonicity but only as an adjunct of the examination -- not as an integral part of the process itself.
One day I gave a muscle tonicity examination to an established patient. He was surprised at how some of the weaknesses found correlated with the structural aberrances we had been working on. He was even more surprised when we tested the muscles again after the adjustment and found a balance that had not been there before.
This made me realize that I had been making a mistake by not testing the muscles for tonicity as part of my regular examination procedure. With reflex work, I found that I could also predispose a structure to correction allowing for an easier adjustment which tended to last longer.
We don't know if this is exactly what Kevin Hearon had in mind when he developed his muscle screening chart, but it certainly lends itself to all manner of correlation between the tone of muscle and the chiropractic adjustment.
This beautifully laminated chart graphically illustrates the testing procedures for 20 muscles of the upper extremities and 12 of the lower. Under each illustration are the names of the muscles being stressed, the germane anatomical areas, and the vertebral structures associated with the muscles.
There is also a wonderful illustration of the mechanoreceptors of a typical joint. Believe me, nothing impresses a patient more than a picture of what you're attempting to explain.
For a long time I've admired the work of Dr. Hearon. He has a consummate understanding of the subjects he teaches and this chart is an excellent example of his expertise.
It matters little if you use applied kinesiology as an important part of your practice or if you just want to ascertain the tonal integrity of the articular surfaces you're attempting to correct, this chart should be an important part of your office.
If we specialize in anything in the chiropractic profession, it's the overall maintenance of the proper function of the body as it is influenced through the appropriate correction of poor body mechanics. With the Hearon chart, you have an invaluable map to be integrated into this diagnostic and therapeutic regimen.

Psychology Press, 1998 - 265 pagine
Kath Weston's powerful collection of essays, Long, Slow Burn, challenges the preconception that queer studies is the brainchild of the humanities and argues that social science has been talking about sex all along. To deny this one would have to overlook Kinsey's pioneering sex research in the 1950s, or the psychiatrist Evelyn Hooker's pathbreaking study of homosexuality, but also in the "sex talk" that lies at the heart of classic debates on kinship, inequality, cognition, and other foundational topics in the social sciences. What is different now, Weston claims, is the way sexuality has been isolated from other contemporary issues. Not content with its ghettoization as a contained subfield, Weston refuses to draw an artificial line around sexuality.

SDE Is Turning to the NASDAQ - The Company Is Looking to Purchase an Empty-Shell Company
TEL AVIV, Israel, Nov. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- SDE Energy, which develops conversion systems to produce electricity from sea waves, has been given an option to purchase an empty-shell company on the NASDAQ. The shell company is currently listed on the Pink Sheets and will be sold in return for a share of SDE. The company will be transferred completely free of debts. SDE has yet to record any sales but has signed agreements with governmental authorities and private developers in several countries. Energy experts say that any new listing of a clean energy company would enjoy tremendous success in the American stock market. SDE is currently seeking to raise 2 million USD based on a company worth of 20 million USD. Global warming, rising oil prices, worldwide shortage of electricity and pollution created by burning fuels have made sea waves the largest and most attractive source for clean, economical energy production today. S.D.E has designed a proprietary technology for production of electricity through "harvesting" sea wave motion, even in the harshest weather conditions. Commenting Shmuel Ovadia, Managing Director of SDE Energy, said: "Our system is built on one side of wave gatherers, which can also serve as breakers. It is composed of a system of channels of hydraulic oil, whereby the rise of the pistons creates pressure on the hydraulic oil. The hydraulic oil is accumulated in a pressurized container and is then directed toward a hydraulic motor. This energy turns an electrical generator, which produces electricity." The erection cost of a 1MW S.D.E. station starts from $650,000 while a comparable station costs $1,500,000 from coal, $900,000 from natural gas, $1,500,000 from solar sources, and $3,000,000 from wind. Using S.D.E. technology, production of electricity is around 2 cents, compared to 3 cents from coal, 3.5 cents from natural gas, 12 cents from solar energy, and 3.6 cents from wind. * For further details, please contact Mr. Shmuel Ovadia, Managing Director 972-3-7397107 firstname.lastname@example.com http://www.sde.co.il

Either way he still got a beer fill,and a new growler at only a beer fill price.He could have left empty. It is bs that they tossed a growler you may have liked away.
Sure if I wanted to pay 4.00 for their growler. In with one empty, out with 1 full for the price of beer, which was my goal. I'm good
My only experience with this (since there are no brewpubs in houston to get a growler filled.. horrible laws), wife bought two growlers from river city brewery in wichita. It was not labeled on the glass in any manner, they just wrote the type of beer on the cap.
seems like an easy work around. just print the brewery on the glass.. then write on the cap, which can be replaced every refill at minimal cost.
I like my local brewpub's setup. You walk in, buy a growler for $13.90 CAD, $3.50 of that is a deposit.
Next time, you bring back the empty and they exchange it for a full one for $10.40 (which here in Ontario is a pretty darn good price)
Rockwells Tavern in NW houston fills growlers.
Texas Bierfreiheit!
yeh i know. I was specifically talking about brewpubs (Houston doesn't even have any) and breweries.
Rockwells is just a bar.
You go there often? We're there all the time.. I'll be there friday in fact

Revamp Affirmative Action
Affirmative action has once again become an important and controversial issue. This past July 1, a 2 to 1 vote to dispose of the ban on race consideration for college admissions by the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has prompted a re-visit of the 2006 decision.
Proposition 2, otherwise known as the Michigan Civil Rights Initiative, was passed in November 2006. It was meant to keep colleges from making decisions about college applicants based on race. The appeals court has decided to re-visit the case, which is an extremely rare occurrence.
The reappearance of affirmative action brought me back to the day when I was first accepted to Michigan. I was ecstatic. I felt that all of the difficult classes, activities, and standardized test taking I did in high school had made me amount to something. Not only was I thrilled that I got in, but I also felt that I had earned my admission. I had worked hard to become a Wolverine.
One of my Caucasian male friends was not as fortunate as I was, and was not accepted into the University of Michigan. He was quick to blame it on his gender and race, and told me that it was easier for me to get in because I was "a girl." I was infuriated. Attributing my success to my gender was not something that I was willing to do.
Affirmative action is a fantastic way to knock people down while building them up. It fosters diversity, a fantastic addition to campus, but it also detracts from hard work. It is a handicap and a benefit, because while it can assist in getting a college acceptance, from that point on, people oftentimes attribute success (at least partially) to race or gender. While it does have this effect to downplay skills, the greater idea of diversity and equality is one that ought to be promoted.
Diversity does not necessarily come from race and gender. Diversity comes from many different aspects of character, background and experience. Affirmative action focuses on one categorization of people. Other social categorizations of people include sexual orientation, social standing, home environment, and religious affiliation, among many other things. Both groups could argue with validity the importance of equal representation in colleges. If social categorizations other than those provided in affirmative action do not have equal campus representation, why is affirmative action such a big deal? Having a multitude of backgrounds, variety of races, genders, religions, and sexual orientations does give students a more well-rounded experience, but the current form of affirmative action is not the best way to approach college diversity.
The idea of having equality in college admissions is very important and that there should be a board to ensure that there is a variety of religions, ethnicities, economic backgrounds, and sexualities to enrich the college students' lives. This board would be there to ensure that college admissions not abuse their freedom, but rather, that they ensure a more sophisticated and varied diversity in colleges across the states.

Police revealed new details in the events before a fight and double shooting that happened on Broughton Street last weekend.
Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police said they were in the middle of an operation and swarming the downtown area when the incidents unfolded.
Police said they were conducting what they call Total Focus, an operation that they do once a month, but once the fight broke out and shots were fired, they quickly had to switch gears.
"It's a jurisdiction wide operation where we go out and put extra assets on the street and we did last weekend and they were needed," said Maj. Richard Zapal.
WTOC was present at the Total Focus operation that Metro Police conducted in January. Once a month Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police send extra officers out on the streets to make the community safer by conducting road blocks and targeting areas with high crime.
It just so happened, police say this month's total focus operation was in the right place at the right time. Their crews were already saturating downtown on Saturday. They had the total focus crew in addition to their normal weekend officers who patrol the party scene
"They are walking, riding in marked and unmarked police vehicles, riding horses, whatever we need at the time," said Zapal.
Police say it just goes to show, the city can never be too safe with an abundance of officers, but they say it's also important to be safety conscious yourself.
"Pay attention to what you're doing and be aware of your surroundings," said Zapal. "If you are going out in the entertainment district, don't become inebriated to the point where you are putting yourself at risk."
Police do not plan to add any additional crews downtown and according to their crime statistics, violent crimes are actually down this year despite last weekend's incidents.

Reel World
Mystery Movie—Burning Paradise Video is holding a "mystery" fundraiser for the upcoming TromaDance New Mexico Film Festival. It takes place this Friday at 11 p.m., the Guild Cinema. Though I can't spill the beans on the film's title, I can assure you it features Japanese schoolgirls, high-powered weaponry and assloads of action. This film has never been released in America and has yet to make the leap to DVD in this country. It is one of the most talked-about international films in the last 10 years, and you need to see it on the big screen. Tickets are a mere $5. All proceeds go toward TromaDance New Mexico.

Tim Burton's Corpse Bride
Animated musical weaves delightfully dark spell
Teenage Goth girls, feel free to rejoice. There's finally something new to buy at Hot Topic. Tim Burton, high priest of all that is oddball, offbeat and scary-cute, has finally completed Corpse Bride, his long-awaited follow-up to 1993's The Nightmare Before Christmas. Rest assured, heavily pierced stock clerks are working overtime to get Corpse Bride merchandise onto store shelves nationwide.

Touch the Sound
Mesmerizing documentary picks up the rhythm of life
In 2001, German filmmaker Thomas Riedelsheimer created the closest thing to a cult sensation on the art house circuit when he wrote, edited, directed and acted as cinematographer on Rivers and Tides, a breathtakingly gorgeous documentary about sculptor/photographer Andy Goldsworthy. Goldsworthy, the burly British poet of sticks and rocks, was a magnificent subject for a documentary, but Riedelsheimer took it a step further, creating a film that served as a perfect artistic complement to its subject.

"Supernatural" on The WB
I give The WB credit for one thing: Its ratings may not challange the Big Three networks, but it sure knows how to cater to an audience. Since its inception, The WB has been a breeding ground for attractive teen soap stars (the kind who appear in "7th Heaven," "Everwood," "Gilmore Girls," "One Tree Hill" and even the soaped-up "Smallville"). From there, these young hunks and hotties are free to populate the dozens of cheap teen horror movies that Hollywood cranks out with wearying regularity these days. Where would the remake of House of Wax have been without you, WB?

By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
3/26/2013 (1 year ago)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
A government oversight agency is recommending that the state transfer control of many beloved state parks to local and private entities who can do a better job of maintaining the properties.
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
3/26/2013 (1 year ago)
Published in U.S.
Keywords: California, state parks, Ft. Tejon, Hearst Castle, costs, management, funds, Little Hoover Commission, taxes, budget, maintenance
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The nonprofit Little Hoover Commission said on Monday that years of growth and acquisition have left the state with more land than it can manage.
Much of that land has fallen into disuse as looming budget cuts have stalled maintenance and improvements. Poor financial management may also be to blame.
Many people are not paying when they visit parks either, causing the parks to miss out on badly-needed revenues. State Parks such as the Fort Tejon State Historic Park near Lebec, CA, just under an hour's drive north of Los Angeles, often relies on the use of an "iron ranger" to collect fees from visitors.
An iron ranger is a hollow metal tube with a slot where visitors can slip in a fee on the honor system. The end result is many people don't realize they need to pay, or simply choose not to.
Fort Tejon has an active living history program which shares with the public the nature of daily life at the historic fort. The park also hosts Civil War reenactments and other living history events. This could be lost if the park is closed, costing Californians a living treasure.
Some parks have seen drops in visitor attendance numbers as the economy and high gas prices have compelled would-be visitors to make tougher choices about where to spend their money.
The state park system has been rocked in recent months with allegations of poor accounting practices, mismanagement of funds, and the threat of closures for many parks. Just as the state planned to close many parks, some $54 million in money was found on the books, giving the parks, and the public a temporary reprieve.
The Commission suggests the state give up some of its parks because they cost too much to keep open and the alternative of outright closure would prevent the public from enjoying them. Living and historic treasures would be lost, potentially forever.
One prominent example is Hearst Castle along the Central California Coast. The mountaintop mansion once belonged to publishing giant, William Randolph Hearst and is now one of the most beloved state parks. Unfortunately, maintenance costs for the mansion are prohibitively high and despite the fees charged to visitors, they are not keeping pace with those costs.
Many local governments, and private associations would not likely be able to cover the expenses of many of these parks either.
The most likely result is that these parks will either continue to fall into states of disrepair so great they will have to be closed out of concern or public safety.
The only remaining option for some parks may be to transfer them to private ownership, with special conditions to ensure the properties are preserved. However, finding willing buyers could be difficult.
For now, the parks will remain open for another year but that may change within the next two years. If the economic situation in California does not substantially improve, many would-be park goers and volunteers will find only chains-instead of iron rangers and living treasures, at the gates of their beloved parks.

Since her recent hospitalization and current stay in a skilled nursing facility (SNF), Mom has given us a lesson in Hallucinations 101.
Some of her hallucinations include:
- Her pastor took her to a church auditorium, where children in white sang to her. As she put it, "They were angelic.
- The nurses were walking like penguins.
- Aliens visited to take my younger brother (Jimmy) and they informed Mom before hand.
- Mom thought I was in the hall talking with her younger sister Susie as I sat next to her bedside. Several times she looked right at me.
- She saw Trish's Grandma and Dad at the end of her bed singing pop songs. Both have passed away.
- She has spoken with Trish's mom.
- She has yelled from her bed, "If you want to talk about me, do it to my face." Apparently, a nurse at the SNF is also named Carol. Mom thought discussions that included this nurse were about her.
- Mom called to asking if I could call Mark (my older brother) and tell him she could hear him talking about her with the nurse in the hall way. When I called Mark, I learned he was 35 minutes into his two-hour drive home.
- Mom heard a nurse talking in the hall about a friend who had been in an accident and was being airlifted to the facility. Mom heard a helicopter land outside her room. When this nurse came to check on mom, Mom offered thoughts and prayers for her friend. With a wondering look, the nurse asked Mom what she meant? Mom explained what she heard. While backing up toward the door, the nurse explained, "Carol, we do have helicopters land here. None of my friends have been involved in any accidents." Mom explained that she heard one land just moments earlier and that she heard the nurse talking a friend in an accident. The nurse again explained the reality to Mom, who would have bet dollars to donuts it truly happened.
- Even after several talks with her, Mom still believes that the nurses (and one in general) tried to get her to take morphine so she sleeps all night and they will not have to deal with her.
- I'm sure Mom would be embarrassed if I listed the other episodes so for her I will take the Fifth.
The question i: Who was she seeing or talking to when we were not around? Just think what the staff and other patients thought about this crazy woman in the same room with them. The hard part in all this that the staff at the hospital and the SNF only saw Mom as this strange, mumbling, in another dimension, sedated, lady. They didn't know her before the anesthesia, Tramadol and morphine.
Mom would never in a million years call someone a whale, much less a beached whale. She is an outgoing, welcome-to-the-neighborhood, I'll-watch-your-kids-while-you-take-a-break, mother, mother-in-law and grandmother.
She has side effects from the narcotics she's on. She transposes words due to her stroke. Her nerves making the stroke side effects worse. She's in pain from a broken femur. Who knows? Maybe the staff thinks about fitting my mom with a straight jacket. Right now she is not acting like my mom.
As family caregivers and advocates for our carees, we need to do our best to be available whenever the doctor, hospital team, case worker, whoever may walk through the door who has any power. We need to have our caree's back and let them know that the person lying in bed right now is not acting as she normally would.
I am in the process of making myself up some "Care Advocate" business cards (because this is a business), which will include all my contact information. The back of the card will include Mom's medication list so I contacted in case I leave to run to the cafeteria, the facilities or to the car to grab a wall charger for my darn phone that seems to run low on battery right before the doctor visits. I will leave the cards with Mom on the side table in her room and on the message board so the nurses and doctors know how to contact me if I happen to not be there.
I am using Avery #5871 Clean Edge Business Card Stock, which I purchased from Staples for $17.99 for 200 business cards. If we run into each other at a show, conference, or other situation ask me for my card. I guarantee I will have one.

Officers with the Wilmington Police Department have arrested a man after several months of investigating for stealing $100,000 worth of camera equipment from a movie company.
According to police, detectives began their investigation in October 2013 when they received a report some expensive camera equipment had been stolen.
Police said investigators followed several leads for months and found the suspect online trying to sell the stolen equipment.
Authorities executed a search warrant Thursday night and ultimately arrested and charged 31-year-old Kevin Shaun Martinek with larceny by an employee and recovered most of the property.
