The Supplements I Take and Why
David Seaman, D.C., M.S., D.A.B.C.N., F.A.C.C.
Nutritional supplements have been around for a long time. For example, the two oldest companies that currently service our profession are Anabolic Laboratories and Standard Process. Each was family owned some 80 years ago and they remain that way today. As a child, some 35 years ago, I walked into a health food store for the first time. Supplements and various...
Why magnesium for the chiropractic patient?
David Seaman, D.C., M.S., D.A.B.C.N., F.A.C.C.
Back in 1992, Elin referred to mag-nesium as the fifth, but forgotten, electrolyte.1 This is not surprising, as magnesium's importance is rarely mentioned, perhaps due to our culture's obsession with calcium. One would never know that magnesium plays a crucial role in bone metabolism, for it is never mentioned. Even certain researchers do not consider magnesium when studying osteoporosis. Alexandersen,...

How Well Do You Know Your Ginseng? Maybe Not So Well... Here's Why
Dr. Ron Gilbert D.C., David C. Konn
What is Ginseng? There is good reason why you may not know your ginseng so well. Although ginseng is one of the most well known herbs or supplements it is also the most misunderstood.

Q: What are the two most important things that a doctor needs to address concerning his or her patients' nutritional protocol? Cima: A. What type of food is right for my patient?

(Synonymous with your car needing a tune...
The Truth About the Dangers of COX-2 Inhibitors
David Seaman, D.C., M.S., D.A.B.C.N., F.A.C.C.
As most readers are aware, Vioxx was recalled from the marketplace in late September of 2004. It was discovered that a significant number of patients taking Vioxx suffered from heart attacks or strokes. A total of three COX-2 inhibitors have been in the marketplace. These drugs are sometimes referred to as "coxibs;" celecoxib (Celebrex), rofecoxib (Vioxx), and valdecoxib (Bextra). Celebrex and...

History and Presenting Symptoms The patient is a 14-year-old soccer player who reports frequent pain in her right hip and posterior thigh region for the past several months. This is most noticeable the day after a strenuous soccer competition or scrimmage when she has obvious tightness and tension in the back of her upper right thigh. She denies any specific injury...

She reports pain in the front of her right knee, over the past several months, especially when playing tennis. She denies any specific injury, and has no obvious swelling or discoloration. She reports that she takes ibuprofen for...
Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome & Orthotic Support
Dr. John Danchik, D.C., C.C.S.P., F.I.C.C.
Tarsal tunnel syndrome (TTS), while not common in the general population, is occasionally seen among athletes. In addition, many TTS symptoms can be confused with conditions commonly treated in the chiropractic office.1 Because its etiology is often related to hyperpronation and, therefore, spinal complaints, TTS patients may be concentrated in the chiropractic office. When a patient complains of burning pain...
Wellness Support for an Obese Patient
Dr. John Danchik, D.C., C.C.S.P., F.I.C.C.
History and Presenting Symptoms A 32-year-old male presents with a history of mild to moderate lower back pain, and aching tightness in his neck. He states that his back pain comes and goes, with no specific triggering activities. His neck tension is worse with long and stressful workdays. He participates in no recreational sports or exercise activities, and recalls no back...

Practice Management
What's SOP Doc??
Kathy Mills Chang
During a recent after-dinner trip to a favorite ice cream eatery, I happened into the Ladies' Room. Hanging next to the sink was a detailed, with pictures, explanation of how to wash your hands. Honestly, do any of us really need a primer on how to wash our hands? Of course not! But this national chain ice cream eatery was...
Powerful Positioning
Marc Swerdlick, D.C.
Your practice is just that—YOUR PRACTICE. as straightforward and simplistic as that statement may be, many chiropractors promote their practice in a rather generic, almost "vanillalike" manner. Their outdoor sign just above their clinic reads CHIROPRACTOR, their walls are covered with posters that include photographs of a family holding hands while walking down the beach,...
Staff: Your Most Valuable Asset
Fred Di Domenico, D.C.
When assessing the assets of your practice, your staff should be your most coveted element. Nothing can make or break your practice like your staff. A well-trained, happy staff propels your practice to new heights. An unhappy, unmotivated staff is a "ball and chain" that will doom your every good intention. You cannot outperform a bad staff. If your...
The Power of Visualization
Mark Sanna, D.C.
If you envision money falling from the sky, would it? Probably not; although, it's a nice mental image, isn't it? Seeing is only the first step. The next step is to take aggressive action toward achieving your goal. I associate the concept of seeing with the word visualization. Suppose that you earn $2,000 per month and you want to...
How Can I Show the True Value of Chiropractic Care?
Dwight C. Whynot, D.C.
Your practice philosophy can influence how you present chiropractic to your patients, regardless of whether you went to a more philosophical chiropractic school or you went to school that did not emphasize the chiropractic philosophy, as much can influence the way in which you manage your chiropractic practice and the way in which you manage the care you provide your...
Utilization Guidelines
Mark Sanna, D.C.
We cannot escape regulation. Whatever we do in our practices requires that we learn our rights, scope of practice, standards of practice, and choice of therapies and modalities. Virtually no activity in clinical practice escapes regulation. However, all too often, practitioners employ a "shoot-from-the-hip" approach to case management, where the doctor or therapist applies his or her own individualistic methodology,...
Chiropractic Clinician and the Radiologist: A Partnership with a Caveat
It is critical for every chiropractor to have a support team of health care specialists in order to render the highest level of care for our patients. The radiologist is the first specialist that you should add to your team. In the triaging of our patients, the progression is to create an accurate diagnosis, prognosis and treatment plan and then...
Lumbar Spine Trauma
Dr. Terry R. Yochum, D.C.; D.A.C.B.R.; Fellow, A.C.C.R. and Dr. Chad J. Maola, D.C.
Compression fractures are the most common fractures of the lumbar spine. They result from combined flexion and axial compression.1,2 The most common segmental levels to develop compression fractures are T12-L1.3 The extent of the vertebral compression and degree of comminution are dependent upon the severity of the force applied and the relative strength of the vertebra.4 In children, they are...
Osteitis Pubis
Dr. Terry R. Yochum, D.C.; D.A.C.B.R.; Fellow, A.C.C.R. and Dr. Chad J. Maola, D.C.
HISTORY: Both of these female patients are complaining of focal pain at the pubic articulation. One of them developed this pain after a difficult delivery of a child and the other patient after surgery for a retroverted uterus. Figures 1 & 2. Characteristic changes are visible at the pubic...
Dish Syndrome
Dr. Terry R. Yochum, D.C.; D.A.C.B.R.; Fellow, A.C.C.R. and Dr. Chad J. Maola, D.C.
Considerations Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) is a generalized spinal and extraspinal articular disorder that is characterized by ligamentous calcification and ossification. The most prominent radiographic expressions of this disease are encountered in the spine involving predominantly the anterior longitudinal ligament. It is a distinctive disease and does not represent ankylosing spondylitis or degenerative joint disease. An incidence of 12% of...
Terry R. Yochum, D.C., D.A.C.B.R., Fellow, A.C.C.R., and Chad J. Maola, D.C.
CASE HISTORY This young adult patient presents with neck pain following an MVA. You note an abnormality in the upper cervical spine at C1 & C2. Is this a fracture? DISCUSSION Anomalies of the odontoid process are considered uncommon (1) and are usually discovered by the principle "traumatic determinism." This means that the underlying condition predated the injury and is not caused by...
Partial Agenesis Of The C-1 Posterior Arch
Dr. Terry R. Yochum, D.C.; D.A.C.B.R.; Fellow, A.C.C.R. and Dr. Chad J. Maola, D.C.
Embryology—Ossification of the first cervical vertebra begins about the seventh fetal week at the lateral masses and proceeds perichondrally in a dorsal direction, creating the posterior arch of the atlas. In the second year of life, a secondary growth center for the posterior tubercle develops between these neural arches. Complete fusion of the posterior arch should be noted between the...
Getting Hip Muscles Back in Balance
Kim D. Christensen, D.C., C.C.S.P., D.A.C.R.B.
The hip muscles form a vital link in the lower extremity kinetic chain by transferring ground-reaction forces from the legs to the trunk during gait. These muscle groups supply coordinated propulsion and provide balanced stability for the pelvis and spine. However, through repetitive use patterns and after injuries, it is not unusual for some of these muscles to develop shortening...
Rehab of CAD Injury
Kim D. Christensen, D.C., C.C.S.P., D.A.C.R.B.
People who present with whiplash injuries (Cervical Acceleration-Deacceleration) often do not respond completely to care. In fact, persisting symptoms are common in this group.1 One review found that "between 14% and 42% of patients with whiplash injuries have chronic neck pain and that approximately 10% of this group experience constant, severe pain."2 In fact, there is over 50 years of...
Occupational Health and Chiropractic
Iain G. Smith, D.C.
A few years ago I met Patsy Mckenna, an Occupational Health Regional Manager for a large national gas pipeline company here in the UK. Patsy invited me to give a presentation to some of her colleagues at their head office in Birmingham, and although it was over 50 miles from my practice I agreed to do...
World's Best Traction
Dr. Mark R. Payne, D.C.
Last month I discussed why there's no adjusting technique which is demonstrably better in terms of spinal correction. Obviously, there may be a host of situations when one technique is indicated (or contraindicated). That's just common sense. But, in terms of actually effecting real structural change to the spinal curves, it just doesn't matter much how or which technique system...
The Core Workout
Mark Sanna, D.C.
The Core If you were to ask which muscle group you could focus on to provide your patients with the greatest benefits in the shortest amount of time, it would be the core. What is the core? The core consists of all the muscles in the abdominal and lower back areas. This includes the abdominal muscles: rectus abdominus, internal and external...
Sport-Specific Rehab
John K. Hyland, D.C.
The rehabilitation process for injured athletes is often divided into three distinct phases: acute, recovery and functional.1 A comprehensive rehabilitation plan will include different types of exercises tailored for each of the three healing phases. Each phase is important for a successful return to sports activity, but the last one may be the most critical, and is the one that...
Neuromechanical Considerations of the Sacroiliac Joint
James W. Gudgel, D.C. PT and Christopher J. Colloca, D.C.
Controversial as a pain generator and lacking the mobility of the adjacent spinal joints, the sacroiliac (SI) joint is an often overlooked target in the management of low back disorders. Because of the SI joints' integral relationship with the hip joints, their assessments are also included to determine the hip's relationship to any SI joint...
Trigenics Myoneural Medicine
Allan Gary Oolo Austin, D.C.
As a chiropractor, I have been focusing on the human nervous system and correction of related neuromusculoskeletal dysfunction for over twenty years. Although chiropractic adjustments constantly produce tremendous results, the holding elements and soft tissue components of the subluxation complex and biomechanical dysfunctions have been largely undervalued. Trigenics is a form of manual medicine that provides a solution to correcting...
Trigenics®: a Neurological Evolution
Allan Gary Oolo Austin, D.C.
The quest for more complete care and sustainable results has come to a new conclusion with the evolutionary creation of a multimodal treatment system that utilizes synergistic functional neurology. This 3-dimensional assessment and treatment system is Trigenics® Myoneural Medicine. With neurology as the key, many doctors now using Trigenics neuromanual methods are claiming it to be the missing element of treatment...
CranioSacral Therapy
Lisa Upledger, D.C.
CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a manual modality that has made its way into the chiropractic clinic as an effective adjunctive therapy. It focuses on normalizing the craniosacral system, which extends from the skull, face and mouth down to the sacrum and coccyx. The craniosacral system consists of a compartment formed by the dura mater membrane, the cerebrospinal fluid within the membranes,...
TVM vs. A Chiropractic "Wasteland"
Brice Vickery, D.C.
Chiropractic, a Wasteland? Things have never been better. Accepted in all states, academic accreditation, almost full members of the healing arts is the way most see it. This euphoria disappears when you compare it to what it could become and what it did become for me, and the little group of doctors who have studied TVM (The Vickery Method). It would...
Postural Alignment & Health Disorders: A Scientific Connection?
Deed E. Harrison, D.C.
INTRODUCTIONPosture has probably been one of the longest studied aspects of humans. The correlation of posture and health has driven us to study our posture since at least the time of Hippocrates.1 Since Hippocrates' time, many have attempted to categorize man into constitutional posture types.1-3 Before any possible consequences of abnormal posture can be addressed, normal posture must be defined...

I received a link from the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) to a fascinating video about their recent efforts to develop CoSecTM, a new resin technology that is more effective at capturing cobalt-60. Most of the radiation doses that nuclear workers receive come from this single isotope.
One possible cost savings aspect of this technology that the video did not mention is the potential to alter a regulatory assumption that using cobalt based materials in nuclear plant primary systems should be avoided at all costs.
Cobalt is an extremely valuable alloying material that is widely used in bearings and other applications where surface hardness and wear resistance is important. I can personally testify – without any details at this point due to non disclosure agreements (NDAs) – that engineering design efforts to eliminate cobalt from primary components are very expensive. They add a significant level of developmental risk and the resulting products are generally inferior in all other measures of effectiveness other than the fact that they do not have any cobalt-59 that could get activated.
If changing the resin used in reactor coolant purification systems can do just as good a job of reducing the amount of CO-60 in the primary coolant as avoiding the use of CO-59 in components that are exposed to primary coolant, it would seem to me that it is a substantially lower cost method of achieving the same desired result.

BOO WHO? Tisch appeared on Fox Business prior to kickoff Thursday and said, "Our (ticket and PSL) program was already announced and our fans are already responding very positively to our program. I think it's going to take a little adjusting, but our fans clearly understand the purpose of the PSLs. The PSLs have a value and once we open the stadium, once they get in there and see what we've built for them, there is not going to be a lot of noise about the price and the cost of the PSLs" ("Happy Hour," Fox Business, 9/4).

Patrick Barclay: Big Phil hopes Panama can provide repeat World Cup omen
Published: 03 June 2014
Updated: 11:31, 03 June 2014
A match against Panama, whom Brazil face tonight in their penultimate friendly before the World Cup, is bound to stir memories for Luiz Felipe Scolari.
For it was a home friendly against Panama that helped to lift the Brazilians out of their deepest depression, which they little realised would give way to the joy of a fifth world title.
It was August 2001 and Big Phil was their fourth manager in a year. In that time they had lost to, among others, Australia and Honduras, and there was serious concern they might make ignominious history by failing to emerge from the World Cup qualification process.
The last chance to raise morale before the visit of Paraguay — a qualifier Scolari described as "the most important game of my career, the game of my life"— brought the Panamanians to Curitiba, where they were beaten 5-0. A few days later Paraguay were overcome and, although the odd stumble followed, it proved a turning point. Rivaldo burgeoned, Ronaldo returned, Scolari remodelled the team and the following summer in Yokohama they lifted the World Cup.
Remember that side? Gilberto Silva in midfield; Cafu and Roberto Carlos, the best pair of wing-backs ever assembled; Kleberson, who went to Manchester United and disturbed a lot fewer trees than Gilberto was to pull up at Arsenal.
Scolari, hitherto best known in South America — he had guided both Gremio and Palmeiras to Copa Libertadores triumphs — became a global name and, after managing Portugal, ended up, as global names and Avram Grant tend to do, at Chelsea.
It has been less of a roller-coaster ride this time. The team have been bedded in for more than a year and, although there are reservations — the relative inexperience of purportive superstars Neymar and Oscar, for example — Scolari claims almost serene confidence. He'll not want that dented by Panama.

Airtel Zambia cuts international call rates
TELECOMS| May 21, 2012, 10:55 a.m.
By Edith Mwale, Lusaka, Zambia
Zambia's largest mobile phone operator, Airtel, has announced the launch of reduced international calling rates to neighbouring countries and some selected destinations in the world.
Airtel Zambia Marketing Director Navdeep Kapur said: "When we launched our Zambitious campaign, we promised that we will introduce some of the coolest rates on the market. To this, we went ahead and established the most popular destinations to determine how best we can delight our customers."
Some of the destinations that customers will be able to call at discounted rates include all neighbouring countries, South Africa, China and USA, where customers will be able to call for as low as K10 per second.
Surprisingly though, Airtel subscribers will not just pick up a mobile phone and call those destination at the reduced rates, but they will have to register first before enjoying the reduced rates.
It is currently not clear whether Airtel will be charging customers for enrolling for the reduced rates or its will be done freely. With South Africa proving to be a high traffic destination, rates have been slashed by 75%.
Kapur added, "This is Airtel's way of saying thank you to its customers for the support, we will continue bringing forth services that are delightful and locally relevant and ensure that our customers benefit. This is Airtel's commitment to all its customers."
Kapur said Airtel feels that this will augment communication and reduce the cost of doing business.

Anaheim, CA (Sports Network) - Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion each hit RBI singles in the ninth inning as the Toronto Blue Jays rallied past the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, 6-5, to avoid a four-game sweep.
Holding a 5-4 lead, the Angels sent Ernesto Frieri (0-4), who recorded the final out in the eighth, back to the mound in the ninth. Brett Lawrie singled and J.P. Arencibia was hit by a pitch. With Jose Reyes batting, Lawrie got caught in a rundown between second and third. Lawrie appeared to be tagged out while sliding back into second base, but was called safe.
After Reyes flied out, Dane De La Rosa came in from the bullpen. Rajai Davis hit a grounder to shortstop Erick Aybar, who threw to third for the force out. Bautista followed with an RBI single to left to tie the game. Davis stole third and raced home on Encarnacion's single to left.
"We took advantage of some things today," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. "We never felt out of it but it took a late-inning rally to win it."
Bautista and Encarnacion ended with two RBI apiece for the Blue Jays. Davis went 3-for-5 with an RBI and three runs scored.
Mark Buehrle got the start for Toronto and gave up five runs on seven hits over six innings. Brett Cecil (5-1) recorded the final two outs in the eighth to pick up the win. Casey Janssen registered his 19th save of the year.
Mark Trumbo hit a three-run homer for the Angels, who got a solo shot from Mike Trout. Chris Iannetta had an RBI.
Los Angeles starter C.J. Wilson allowed four runs -- three earned -- on eight hits while striking out seven over 7 1/3 innings.
"We didn't get it done," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "C.J. pitched a great game. It's tough because we couldn't hold a lead."
Trailing 5-2, Toronto started its comeback with a two-run eighth inning. With one out, Davis and Bautista singled. J.C. Gutierrez came in from the bullpen and watched Davis steal third. Encarnacion hit a grounder to third baseman Chris Nelson, whose throw to second base sailed into right field. A run scored on the play.
Nick Maronde was called in from the bullpen to face Adam Lind, who grounded into a fielder's choice. Michael Kohn then took over on the mound and pinch- hitter Maicer Izturis greeted him with an RBI infield single. Frieri got the final out of the inning before running into trouble in the ninth.
The Angels jumped out to a 1-0 lead on Trout's homer in the first.
Toronto scored a pair of runs in the third to take the lead. With two outs, Reyes reached on an infield single and advanced to second on Nelson's throwing error. Reyes scored on Davis' single to right. Davis stole second and moved to third on Trumbo's throwing error. Bautista's RBI single to center made it a 2-1 game.
Los Angeles switched the momentum with a four-run fourth. Trout walked and Howie Kendrick singled before Trumbo's blast over the wall in left. Aybar hit a one-out double and raced home on Iannetta's double down the left-field line, making it 5-2.

Tuxedo residents allege nightmare neighbour
Man charged with assault; racism cited
Think life is just peachy for people living in those big houses in Tuxedo?
Think again.
Several Tuxedo residents say they are worried and one says she is living in fear, under siege from a neighbour they say is violent, racist and anti-Semitic.
Two security cameras have been installed, high fences built and a large dog has been purchased to protect property. Still, some people say they're afraid to go out into their own yards.
A 46-year-old man has been charged with assault causing bodily harm after allegedly attacking 73-year-old neurologist Dr. Francis Dominique in the spring of 2007.
The man, standing in the front foyer of his home, said the charges are "completely unwarranted." He refused to discuss the matter further because it's before the courts.
The next court date is Oct. 5.
The neighbours were more than willing to talk.
"The first time, my wife looked out the back window. There was this guy shovelling snow and garbage over the fence and into my backyard," Dominique said. "I said 'what are you doing? Stop that!' He took a shovelful of snow and garbage and got me in the face."
Things escalated.
There was a dispute over pine needles from the Dominiques' backyard falling into his neighbour's backyard. The police were called.
"Then he threatened to beat up my wife," alleged Dominique. "He told my wife and me to go back from where we came from. He threatened to beat up 'our old asses.'"
The Dominiques are originally from Trinidad.
Francis Dominique admitted he also hurled racial epithets across the back fence as the conflict grew. He said he's ashamed but said he was provoked.
"He called us 'sand niggers.' Frankly I had never heard the expression 'sand nigger.' "
After a series of confrontations, Dominique claims the man jumped over the back fence and attacked him.
"He knocked me down, grabbed my testicles. He was hitting me all over the chest, the heart. He was hitting me over the heart with intention."
None of these allegations has been proven in court.
Vydha Dominique, who is physically disabled, attempted to get the attacker off her husband. She flung a stick at him and went into the house to call police.
She said the incident has left her traumatized.
"I'll be very honest. Since this occurred I can't sleep. It's just such an awful emotional experience. What are we alive for if this is existing?"
Resident Richard Swyston said the neighbourhood changed when the man, his wife, and young child moved in.
In a telephone interview from Hong Kong, where he is working, Swyston claimed the man verbally abused him.
"He said, 'You (expletive) Jew. You goddamn Jew boy. You Jews are all the same,' " Swyston alleged.
Swyston called the police, who were sympathetic but unable to help.
"We put in bars, we put in alarms, we put in cameras. We're afraid."
Gemma Swyston, Richard's wife, said the house across the street went up for sale after the accused man tore up his own front lawn and replaced it with gravel, giant boulders and a fence. That house is currently vacant.
According to the Jewish Post, the B'nai Brith Canada League for Human Rights has been notified of the case and is investigating.
At least one neighbour said he has been able to work out a cordial relationship with the man.
"At the beginning we had some unpleasant dealings," said Mike Wasylkiw. "We have always wanted to be pleasant. We don't have him over for dinner but we get along now."
The accused man, Joseph Zielinski, works for the Canadian Forces 17 Wing. Public affairs officer Capt. Jeff Noel said Monday the Canadian Forces are aware of the allegations and are taking them seriously.
They are co-operating with the Winnipeg police, Noel said. The man remains employed.
There's always an element of he-said-she-said to these cases. The neighbours claim the man is waging a campaign of terror. He denies it.
Swyston said the neighbours don't expect the man to go to jail for the attack. He'd like a conviction to prove a point. Mostly, he'd like calm to return to his street.
Something tells me that's not going to happen any time soon.

About Lindor Reynolds
National Newspaper Award winner Lindor Reynolds began work at the Free Press as a 17-year-old proofreader. It was a rough introduction to the news business.
Many years later, armed with a university education and a portfolio of published work, she was hired as a Free Press columnist. During her 20-plus years on the job she has written for every section in the paper, with the exception of Business. She'll get around to them some day.
Lindor has received considerable recognition for her writing. Her awards include the Will Rogers Humanitarian Award, the National Society of Newspaper Columnists' general interest award and the North American Travel Journalists Association top prize.
Her work on Internet luring led to an amendment to the Criminal Code of Canada and her coverage of the child welfare system prompted a change to Manitoba Child and Family Services Act to make the safety of children paramount.
She has earned three citations of merit for the Michener Award for Meritorious Public Service in Journalism and has been awarded a Distinguished Alumni commendation from the University of Winnipeg. Lindor was also named a YMCA/YWCA Woman of Distinction.
She is married with four daughters. If her house was on fire and the kids and dog were safe, she'd grab her passport.

I´ve required double room with queen size bed but´I´ve got two single beds.
-Big rooms
1. Hotel manager was rude and obnoxious. 2. Hotel staff were unhelpful and unpleasant. 3. Breakfast was so poor, we didn't bother showing up the after first time. 4. Location is bad, 25 min from the old town. 5. Shower head had no overhead placement. 6. Internet not working most of the time, and the hotel staff refuse to fix it. 7. bad lighting in the room. 8. Broken springs on the bed.
Location was great. So close to Old town and New town. Also very close from the metro station. Most of the staff was very friendly. Bathroom lovely and clean, every day new towels and room was clean and very spacious. Breakfast were nice too.
One of the reception lady had no manners. No a/c and it was just not possible to have a comfortable sleep in that heat even though both windows were opened. We got kind of good price for the room but normally the prices are much higher which doesn't match the hotel. Also I would say 3star and not 4 star hotel. Otherwise it was nice to stay there and we enjoyed Prague very much.
It was great here, would recommend for sure :)
Nothing everything was great.
Renovated bathroom, close to the center, helpfull staff
Furniture a bit old
Free internet Center location Great staff
Parking on the building next door
Cosy and stylish interiors, just a few steps from excellent park, New Town Hall Tower, less than 15 minutes by foot to Old Town center. Extremely quiet as for the middle of the city. Staff knows languages, city, surroundings.
Ventilators in bathrooms too loud (probably must be simply cleaned).

Woolsey: Cocaine confession not a career killer
The Texas Rangers' spring training facility is located in Surprise, Ariz., a fitting venue for manager Ron Washington's admission this past week that he tested positive for cocaine use last season.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
As surprising as that news was, the stunner may well be that the Rangers let him keep his job. And that MLB let the Rangers, who open the season at home to the Blue Jays on April 5, let them do so.
Then again, MLB has been trying to go hush-hush with its various substance problems for decades. See no evil, etc.
One Texas newspaper columnist has alleged that the only reason all this has surfaced is that a disgruntled former Rangers employee was using the confidential information to blackmail the ball club. The Rangers have denied that is the case.
Who knew that managers were subject to testing for cocaine, anyway? Are there other positive tests we haven't heard about and never will?
Washington has said he admitted to using coke – he claims it was strictly a one-off episode, and that is rather hard to grasp, too – after he was scheduled for mandatory testing but before the results were returned.
He offered to resign, he says, but the Rangers told him he could stay on, with treatment/counselling.
Subsequently, in the spirit of coming completely clean and possibly doing so before being outed, Washington, now 57, has volunteered that he used amphetamines and marijuana during his playing days. In these days of athletes doing everything they can to preserve their privacy, this comes close to qualifying as too much information.
If this were the New York Yankees, not the perennial also-ran Rangers (whose former executives include George W. Bush), this all might have become a much bigger story.
As it is, Washington's apparent contrition and candour – as opposed to the all-too-familiar denials and hiring of lawyers – appears to be earning him a free pass.
"I am a good person. No, I'm not a good person. I'm a damn good person," he says. "And I'm proud. And I fight. And I'm hungry. And I made a mistake."
AND, FURTHERMORE: Chipper Jones of the Atlanta Braves says of his manager, Bobby Cox: "He's like your favourite grandpa, the one who gives you $20 every time you come to visit." ... Ex-Blue Jay Roy Halladay has reportedly bought a six-bathroom house in suburban Philadelphia with a price tag of $2,288,500 (U.S.). ... Ex-Jay Ted Lilly is the proud father of a new son and namesake, Theodore Roosevelt Lilly IV. ... Take it from Lamar Odom of the Los Angeles Lakers – get a pre-nup. "If you work at Burger King and you want to get married to someone and they clean houses for a living, you should probably get a pre-nuptial agreement because if something happens and something goes wrong, you don't want to get caught with nothing. Catch my drift? Nobody wants to hear that, but it's just something that you have to do." Don't say you weren't warned. ... Brent Seabrook returned to practice with the Blackhawks Thursday, following the hit by James Wisniewski of the Ducks that earned the latter an eight-game suspension. Said Seabrook: "For Wiz to come from the blue line the way he did and leave his feet and go right for my head, I don't think that's fair for any player, especially not a friend. I'm pretty (ticked) off right now. Time will tell, and time will heal."

Rivera leaves Keene police to serve as sheriff
KEENE - With the turn of the New Year, the Keene Police Department said goodbye to longtime lieutenant Eliezer Rivera and promoted two other officers.
Rivera, who was elected the new Cheshire County Sheriff by voters in November, left with over 21 years of service to Keene on Dec. 31. A Democrat, Rivera won the sheriff job in a close race against Republican Earl D. Nelson of Marlborough.
Outgoing sheriff Richard Foote, who served the county for the past 14 years, did not run for reelection.
Rivera has been a Keene lieutenant since 1991, and was most recently assigned as a shift commander in the Bureau of Uniformed Patrol. He previously served in the Bureau of Prosecution as the department's Police Prosecutor as well as in the Bureau of Criminal Investigations.
Rivera spent much of his career as a member and leader of the department's Field Training and Evaluation Program.
"Lieutenant Rivera's knowledge, experience, and leadership will be missed by the Department," Keene police said in a release Thursday.
Last week, the department also announced the promotion of Steven Tenney, Jr. to the rank of lieutenant and Michael Kopcha to the rank of sergeant.
Tenney has been assigned as a shift commander in the Bureau of Uniformed Patrol starting this month. Tenney started his career in police work as an officer in the department in 1999 after he served in the Army. He has been a sergeant since 2010, working as the department's shift supervisor in the Bureau of Uniformed Patrol. Prior to that, he was the department's K-9 officer and had worked with his K-9 partner, Laika, for six years.
Tenney will maintain a role in the department's K-9 program.
With his promotion to sergeant, Kopcha is now the department's shift supervisor in the Bureau of Uniformed Patrol. He has been an officer in the Keene force since 2008.
