"With a lot of guidance, of course," said Adrienne Y. Smith, dean of the school of engineering technologies at the community college.
The college received a $4,000 grant from Nuts, Bolts & Thingamajigs, an educational foundation of the Fabricators & Manufacturers Association International. The camp will be called "Manufacturing Your Future."
Nuts, Bolts & Thingamajigs has a new partner in its camps, the National Association of Community College Entrepreneurship, a national organization that was founded at Springfield Technical Community College.
"You not just doing a camp that's nice for kids, but you are giving them a thought process to use it in their daily life," said Heather M. Van Sickle, executive director of the National Association for Community College Entrepreneurship.
Actor John Ratzenberger, best known as "Cliff" on the show "Cheers," helped found Nuts, Bolts & Thingamajigs after hosting "Made in America" for the Travel Channel in which he visited various factories. Ratzenberger will be in Springfield on May 11 for an event promoting the program, Van Sickle said.
The National Association of Community College Entrepreneurship is helping coordinate camps at 18 member colleges, including STCC and Quinsigamond Community College in Worcester.

It was a "textbook" victory, as Democrat Glenda Ritz became Indiana's State Superintendent of Public Instruction—elect.
Ritz outpolled incumbent Republican Tony Bennett who had been the quarterback of the state's aggressive education reform movement.
"It was clear that Hoosiers don't want their tax dollars going towards the privatization of our schools," Ritz told an election-night crowd of party faithful gathered in Indianapolis.
Before Ritz took to the campaign trail to oppose school vouchers, she went to court to do the same. Ritz is a plaintiff in a lawsuit that challenges the constitutionality of the Choice Scholarship Program.
The Indiana Supreme Court is scheduled to hold oral arguments on the case in November 21st.
"And then, I don't plan to take over schools, when schools are not succeeding," Ritz told News Center 16 in an interview. "I want to be sure that we're providing all the support systems necessary to make sure they do succeed."
Ritz is flat out willing to scrap much of the education reform agenda adopted by the state in recent years—but it remains to be seen if she'll be able.
"I can reorganize right away and I plan to actually get that going and try to reorganize the Department of Education to have that outreach support. And then, of course, I will need a good state board of education to enact some policy and probably reverse some policy that's been already in place," Ritz said.
For Ritz to truly put the recent reform movement into reverse, would take the cooperation of Republican majorities in both the Indiana House and Senate.
"And then I'm going to have to work with Mike Pence of course to see and make sure that we have an educational agenda and not a political agenda."

Legislation Seeks To Restore Courthouse To Teton County
Wyoming's US Senators John Barrasso and Mike Enzi Wednesday introduced legislation that would allow the federal government to transfer ownership of the Clifford P. Hansen U.S. Courthouse back to Teton County. The Teton County Commissioners had conveyed a parcel of land without any payment to the federal government in 1986 as part of an agreement between Teton County and the Wyoming Federal Court for the establishment of a US District Court in Jackson. With that arrangement ending now, the county sought to reacquire the land and the building that now occupies it: but Senator John Barrasso says federal officials maintained they could not return the land to the county without legislative authority. Barrasso says, "The Clifford P Hansen Courthouse provides an essential and convenient meeting place for not only federal and state hearings, but community events as well. By transferring ownership over to Teton County, our bill will ensure this important building remains open to the public and can continue to serve Wyoming and the region as a courthouse."

Job Loss: Focus on your achievements
This article is dedicated to my niece and many others out there who are working while at the same time taking on the challenge of additional studies to gain further qualifications. I would encourage you to not give up on your studies because gaining that qualification is priceless. Many of our young people are frustrated today because they are returning from university and not finding jobs. Many are witnessing their parents with qualifications lose jobs and are asking themselves if studying is really worth it.
When I abruptly and unjustly lost my job and career of more than three decades, I remember thinking to myself that I had wasted a lot of time studying. It was ironic that when this happened, I was studying again…this time for a retirement career! The truth is, you will never regret such achievements in your life, whether academic or vocational or practical.
Younger children are also affected when their parents lose a job. Studies have long indicated that children whose parents lose jobs will falter academically. New evidence shows that widespread job loss does not only affect the children of the jobless, it hurts kids whose parents are still employed too (www.huffingtonpost.com). "Research has found that the stress and anxiety of losing your job is actually not much greater than the stress of worrying about losing your job." Elizabeth Oltmans Ananat, an Assistant Professor of Public Policy and Economics at Duke University, noted: "When there is a lot of stress going on, everyone in the community is very stressed out. They get depressed. They get anxious. It really changes the functioning of a community."
Young children often do not understand what it means when a parent loses a job and they worry more than we think. Older children may feel frustrated when they see their parents losing their jobs. No matter what the situation is, it always helps to focus on your achievements, and continue to talk to your family and encourage them to excel in their studies. Focus on your successes and the things that you were instrumentally involved with in moving the company forward, and record them. All of your work experiences add to your resume, and that cannot be taken away from you. Your qualifications cannot be taken away from you. When you lose a job, or experience any crisis in your life, it is human nature to focus on the negative…but if you look closely there is always something that is positive.
As you go through life, year by year, always remember that life itself is a continuous learning experience. We cannot assume that when we complete high school or university, that that is where it all ends. I recall that when I embarked on one of my study programs I was 'well up there in age' (and that's all I will say!). I remember thinking to myself 'I am way too old for this. I will never get through this.' As it turned out, I was among the 'younger' students, and everything worked out just fine! In our community today, we need to develop a culture of encouragement for our young people, and we can do that in practical ways or by the actions we display. What we achieve as we go through life is a direct result of our beliefs and values, and we are motivated (or not) by the people around us. So often we are discouraged, even at work, when we try to introduce something new and exciting. As a community, let us try to change that mind-set and encourage one another to excel. Sometimes we lack vision. When I embarked on my first study program in the early '70s, I was told that I did not need a Bachelors' degree because 'Cayman is too small'. I wonder what that person would have to say in this present time… When we open our minds to all possibilities, we grow. When we close our minds and cannot envision change, we remain stagnant. Your achievements in life matter, and even though you may now be unemployed, you can carry the experience and the qualifications with you.
Of course, let us not forget that in the grand scheme of things, experience and qualifications do not matter as much as our souls. 'What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?' Mark 8:36 (NIV). We give God thanks for everything we have, because we know that He ultimately provided. Our achievements are made possible through Him. In everything and for everything, we give Him thanks.
If you are struggling with your studies, do not give up. Remember what our parents would tell us 'No-one can take away that piece of paper!'
God bless.

When are we going to elect politicians that have some dignity, respect, and moral?
Now here we have two morons that have gambling out for referendum. The minister for Labor and education for heaven sakes, he can't even pass a minimum wage to help workers, nor can he spearhead the rights of Caymanians ensuring employment for us.
BUT YET THESE TWO CONTEMPTOUS INDIVIDUALS SEEKING VOTES ALL IN THE NAME OF Votes for supporting gambling legislation is making a complete fool of themselves.
Here's how I feel about things and I'm sure you smarties will agree 100% with me.:-
I appreciate the comment of Ms. Orrett a moment ago. But the politicians are being paid to solve thee problems. Why are we burdened with brainstorming to resolve the problems facing the people of this country?
I get very angry when the discussion of labor is discussed pointing out just how our systems are disenfranchising our people. It angers me even more when the labor office who should be the safehaven department of government for unemployed Caymanians;instead the labor office under the leadership of the Director of Labor continues to barge in on talk shows, TV shows, and newspaper editorials just to defend themselves and make themselves look good. None of these departments of governments responsible for importing foreign labor is serving the Cayman Islands. We are only as tax payers employing lazy people who smile for the Camera while they sell Caymanians out to the highest bidder.
Caymanians are being exploited by the Labor Director, the immigration Director, and the Chairman of the Work Permit Board and its members. They know exactly what is going on and that employers are disenfranchising Caymanians in the name of prejudice and racism as well. They should all be ashamed of themselves as they can do good for the people but refuse. However they willingly continue to grant work permits daily keeping our people unemployed, helpless, devastated and poor.
I chuckle every time I listen to the Work permit Chairman and the Labor Director make up excused as to why they are not doing their job and serving the people of the Cayman Islands, which is the reason they were appointed to such high and powerful positions. The work Permit Chairman has the key to the country to let in whom she pleases or not and yet she refuses to stand up to these crooked employers that keep lying on the work permits that she is well aware of.
The people of the Cayman Islands need to realize that everyone of the past government members and those preent seeking re-election hould not be re-elected again.
We need new blood in the house. ONLY TWO OLD HEADS NEED TO BE RETURNED TO TRAIN THE OTHERS

God how sad to hear of Kevin's death.
Every week that i read MCN i would allways look fwd to his column, i must say that some things he said i didn't allways agree on but that's how I liked it, and that's why I enjoyed him so much.
When ever he talked about the old school of biking 70-80 I would hang on every word and a smile would come to my face.
It's such a shame he died, if being on a bike doing what he loved and being paid to do it, (how many would love to be in such a position) was the way he died then at least there is that slight peace of mind about his death.
It seems to me it never happens to the bastards in this world allways the guys that are liked.

My condolences to all who knew him, and his family in particular.

As you may have noticed this season, the NBA introduced some new statistics to us fans that can't get enough analysis and breakdown of every player and team. With the introduction of the new SportVU cameras in every NBA arena this season, a plethora of new stats is available to the geeks of the basketball community, who were all clamoring for new and more ways to break down a player's performance on the basketball court.
You don't need to be a big fan of the numbers to appreciate the importance of these new stats. Thanks to the player tracking data, we can now see what percentage of rebounds a player grabs, how many assist opportunities someone creates, and how far players run every game.
This is especially helpful for the Jazz this season, because this is a year all about development. While wins are appreciated (although rare, Utah is 9-24) seeing players learn and understand the NBA is more exciting. Utah has a great core of youth, and the future looks very bright. Using player tracking data, we can see how well the Jazz's young talent stacks up against the rest of the league, and how much the young guns need to improve in order to become serious NBA players.
Take Gordon Hayward for example. He leads the league in total miles traveled at 85.5. Hayward runs an average of 2.6 miles per game, tied for second place in the NBA with Luol Deng, Nicolas Batum, Stephen Curry, Brandon Jennings, Demar Derozan, Bradley Beal, Aaron Afflalo, and Paul George. Michael Carter-Williams, Chandler Parsons, and Klay Thompson are tied for first in the NBA, averaging 2.7 miles per game.
What this stat does is support the eyeball test that Hayward is one of the hardest working players on Utah's roster. As David Locke, radio voice of the Jazz, has pointed out multiple times this season, Hayward is the all-around player for Utah.
Gordon Hayward's last 3 lines pts-rebs -ast = 12-10-3 v. Charlotte 16-11-9 v. Memphis and 24-5-9 v. Lakers. Strong.
— David Locke (@Lockedonsports) December 28, 2013
Having the extra evidence from the player tracking data to show that, beyond the numbers, Hayward is a very large asset to Utah is a big help in validating what fans and analysts alike see on the court. Too often, media members make the mistake of stating an observation that looks good on the court, but fails to live up to a statistical background check. Having so much extra information is turning out to be a huge help to those basketball talking heads in the media. Following up on that point, another new stat adds further proof to assertions made about Derrick Favors, who has been vaunted as a great rebounder ever since his days at Georgia Tech. While Favors has certainly improved each year he's spent in the league, his rebounding has gone leaps and bounds ahead of where he was in college.
According to the new stats, Favors grabs 59.9% of every rebound he has a chance to get. A player is considered as having a chance to get a rebound if they're within 3.5 feet of the ball after a missed shot. Taking into consideration that the Jazz actually have a very adept rebounding backcourt, and the presence of other good rebounders, such as Enes Kanter, Favors is impressive. Favors has 15.3 chances to get a rebound every night, and he averages 9.2 boards per game. Considering that a certain percentage of those missed rebound opportunities are to other teammates, Favors does a good job grabbing nearly 60% of all the loose balls that come his way. Seeing a player do anything at a rate of 60% (well, besides free throws) is always a good thing.
Another interesting rebounding stat also highlights how adept Favors is becoming at snagging loose balls – he collects 40.5% of every contested rebound as well. That number shows that Favors is better at winning rebounding battles than Zach Randolph, Kenneth Faried, Tim Duncan, Kevin Love, and DeAndre Jordan. That's pretty good company to be in.
Once again, having the knowledge of these stats really cements the claim that Favors is turning into an elite rebounder. While it's easy to note his hustle in games going after loose balls, having the numbers to back that up is incredibly important.
Rebounding and distance traveled aren't the only valuable stats to get a revamp this year, however; the passing game in the NBA is now under more scrutiny. While the good old fashioned assist-to-turnover ratio is still a great number by which to judge a player's offensive efficiency by, we now have the opportunity to see how many points are created by a player's assists, how many assist opportunities they have, as well as secondary assists (a pass that leads to a pass that leads to a shot).
Trey Burke averages 5.1 assists per game and has 10.6 assist opportunities per game. Assist opportunities are an interesting stat to measure – NBA.com defines them as, "Passes by a player to a teammate in which the teammate attempts a shot, and if made, would be an assist."
With the Jazz shooting 43.1% from the field, 27th in the NBA, one has to think that Burke would average a few more assists per game if his teammates shot better. Burke gets an assist on 48% of his opportunities with his team only making 35.4 baskets per game, which means that Burke assists on 16.9% of all of Utah's made field goals. For a rookie point guard in the NBA, that's a great mark.
Conversely, Tony Parker averages 6 assists per game to 13.1 assist opportunities. The San Antonio Spurs shoot 48.5% from the floor, which means that Parker assists on 45.8% of his opportunities. This means that Parker is responsible for 18.6% of the Spurs' 40.7 made field goals every game (the Spurs make more field goals than any other team in the NBA).
This shows what a lot of people have noticed about Burke this season – when he's on the court, he makes every player around him better. Burke's court vision, timing, and unselfish play are turning him into a very efficient point guard. After all, he's responsible for only 1.7% less of his offense's made field goal than Parker, an absolutely stellar player.
In addition to these new passing stats showing how effective Burke is, they also illustrate another intriguing aspect of Hayward's game. Hayward averages 4.9 assists per game, .2 less than Burke, yet both players create exactly 11.5 points per game from their assists. Without Burke and Hayward, the Jazz would have to find another way to create 23 points each night. Beyond Hayward and Burke, Utah doesn't have a player on its' roster capable of running the offense at this high of a level.
Once again, this stat supports what is already accepted as fact by the eyeball test – both Burke and Hayward are integral cogs in the Jazz's offense. There's a myriad of other stats to dig into about this team, but these were some of the most surprising I found while perusing NBA.com's database.
These new stats are great to help fans really understand how effective a player is, and there's a good chance that all this new data will be affecting trades and contract extensions in front offices around the league.

When it comes to limited production or classic cars some, which quickly get labeled as "purists", have ideals of just who should be lucky enough to be the next owner of their pride and joy. They judge every word and action that the potential buyer produces and more critically then a hiring manager for a job. As a buyer, sometimes we try to tell these sellers what they want to hear as they hold the keys to our dream cars, ones that you hunt for months for. Guys like Kacper Krajewski know this strategic battle all too well after he went hunting for the perfect BMW M Coupe.

H2o International 2013 (Ocean City, Maryland): Official Photo Coverage (Part 2)
H2Oi is so much more than a car show and over the years, it has developed more and more facets and dimensions to where it's hardly even a show anymore; it's THE social event of the year.
Trends are both made and broken in Ocean City. Like a runway at a Paris Fashion Show, Coastal Highway becomes the stage where the latest and greatest trends and ideas are put on display. As the week progresses, one of your favorite looks or wheels can become one of your least favorite after seeing so many of the same sets of wheels or themes cruising up and down the strip. At the same time, you can develop a love for a look or theme that you never thought of before or didn't think you'd like until it's on display in front of you.
From "played" to "revolutionary", The Strip is a magical place where heroes and villains are made or broken and where trends, wheels, and ideas go to rise in popularity or find their final resting place. This is true for any and all makes and models as you see the Euro and JDM scenes swapping ideas and perfecting them on similar chassis with different badges. It's not out of the ordinary to see the same set of wheels ten times in one day with ten different finishes.
If there's one thing H2Oi teaches you, it's this: keep an open mind, open eyes, and current license, insurance and registration…

H2o International 2013 (Ocean City, MD): Official Video #2
I know I'm not alone when I share the belief that cars have brought strangers together and turned them into the best of friends. There's just something about sharing a passion and lifestyle with people that truly understand. As a community, we dive into this lifestyle and we build so much anticipation to get even more of it. H2Oi is a beautiful, chaotic hub of immersion and anxious anticipation. Created around the Volkswagen/Audi scene and now attracting even more enthusiasts, H2Oi sweeps into Ocean City every year almost overnight and provides us a world of automotive expression. The whole experience at H2Oi is unreal as slammed cars drive by in every direction, every second. The community takes over the city's streets and we come together in parking lots, hotels, condos, beaches, and restuarants. It's exciting to be a part of this immersion. Along with the insanity and constant burnouts, we also get a chance to cruise, relax, and enjoy the getaway. The time spent at H2Oi feels so good because we really look forward to it every year. We utilize social media to hype it up and we see everyone on Instagram talking about it. H2Oi is such a popular event because the craziness runs wild in the streets, but the passion and friendship can be felt everywhere. The timeless memories can never be forgotten, and I'm honored I can capture such a unique staple in the automotive world with this video.
H2o International 2013 (Ocean City, MD): Official Video #1
The level of H2O hype continues to shatter all previous years as each new September rolls around. Along with that hype, comes preparation. All of you who frequent Instagram have witnessed the phenomenon of "#h20prep". If you were curious enough to search that hash tag in the weeks counting down to h2o this year, you would have seen people literally building cars. Not just swapping wheels or getting last minute coilovers on, but bodywork, interiors, full re-sprays, and shaving bays. This continued all the way up to mere days before departure for Ocean city. The amount of work that people attempted to complete (and in most cases completed), in the weeks before H2O is mind blowing. With that being said, I felt it was only appropriate to start off this year's video with a tribute to the amount of work all of you performed, with the vision of your completed project making its appearance on Coastal Highway. I had the privilege of arriving on Tuesday and watching the madness unfold as cars poured into Ocean City. I sat in a lawn chair by the 62nd street Bridge one day late in the week to watch cars arriving. The expressions on people's faces as they roll onto the strip for the first time is priceless, we all know that feeling. With the Cars and Cameras opening party, air affair, and a hundred other themed meets, there was never a dull moment at H2O. Only 51 more weeks until next year.

H2o International 2013 (Ocean City, Maryland): Official Photo Coverage (Part 1)
If you thought Christmas was "The Most Wonderful Time of the Year", someone lied to you; they've never been to Ocean City, Maryland during the last weekend of September.
H2Oi has all the ingredients to make the perfect weekend: an amazing venue with a beach, a strip to cruise, large parking lots to congregate, and hundreds upon hundreds of cars toting around thousands of enthusiasts to the tune of VR6 exhaust notes, air ride systems dumping their pressurized contents, and the smell of burning rubber. Ingredients so perfect, in fact, that many people have started showing up earlier and earlier in the week and making a full, week-long vacation out of it (much like the Europeans do with Worthersee Treffen in Austria). It's the most anticipated show of the year in the Euro community with people building cars for months (and sometimes years) with THIS show as their deadline.

H2O International 2012 Coverage [Video]
After missing many of the previous H2Oi weekends in Ocean City, Maryland, I finally got my act together and ventured out with some close friends to experience the event. Upon arriving, we witnessed the madness already beginning. Ocean City quickly became a giant party in every direction. The whole weekend filled the streets with Volkswagens and many other fitted cars. Parking lots turned into huge meets and sidewalks became front row seats to the streets' craziness.
After getting settled in, cruising around with everyone, and finding food at my new favorite restaurant, Big Pecker's, night came, and we were quickly drenched in Ocean City's infamous rain. However, It passed overnight and cleared up just in time allowing for a beautiful Sunday show at the campground. I've learned that H2O is a huge event. Cars are literally everywhere, but that's why it is such a great event. This will be a memorable experience that goes beyond that of a typical car show. I got to see some familiar faces and also meet many new friends. H2O weekend is something I'm already looking forward to next year.

Drew Dorbritz's Eos: ConVERTing The Masses
Let's be honest: we've all referred to convertibles as a "girl's car" at some point in our lives. Before Miatas were hammered and stanced or before Cabriolets were aired out on RS's, convertibles were definitely not an enthusiasts car of choice. Sure, there have been a lot of good looking 'verts over the years (Tyrese's Eclipse from "2 Fast 2 Furious doesn't come to mind) but it's been a while since one has really captured the hearts and attention of the public. Drew Dorbritz, a true and longterm enthusiast himself, decided to take a platform that had been written off and make it a neck breaker… AND HE DID.

According to reports, Samsung Electronics has filed a patent for a dual-screen tablet, suggesting perhaps that the Korean manufacturer is still looking to add more variety to its versatile Galaxy Tab range.
The patent design, unearthed by Forbes yesterday at US Patent and Trademark Office, would seem to indicate two adjoining 7-inch screens, and some kind of laser pointer, which could be useful for business presentations.
Should Samsung try its hand at the dual-screen tablet, it would be taking on a tricky form factor, which has, truth to be told, not yet been mastered by anyone on the market. Back in 2010, both Acer and start-up Kno created dual-screen tablets with limited success, while Microsoft's much-publicized Courier project – another tablet sporting two screens – was very publicly called off in the same year. Sony has had slightly more success with its Tablet P, which launched in September of 2011.
Samsung recently launched the Galaxy Tab 2 tablets, in sizes of 7-inches and 10-inches, as well as the 10-inch Galaxy Note, and has been rumored to be launching an additional Galaxy Tab of some kind at a press event in London later this week.

What is DuoDerm and why is it used to treat bed sores?
DuoDerm is the brand name for a commonly used hydrocolloid dressing manufactured by ConvaTec that is used to treat bed sores (or similarly referred to as: pressure sores, pressure ulcers or decubitus ulcers). Hydrocolloid dressings have gel-like properties to absorb excretions from the wound and protect the wound debris and potentially infection causing bacteria. Hydrocolloid dressings dressings help the wound to autolytically debride itself (the body uses its own enzymes to break down dead tissue as opposed to surgically removing it).
DuoDerm dressings are impermeable to water vapor, oxygen and bacteria. One of the reasons DuoDerm dressings are so popular is because they will not stick to the wound bed itself and can be removed without tearing the granulation tissue underneath. They are best applied to wounds that produce light to medium exudate or transudate (extravascular fluid with low protein content, a low specific gravity and low nucleated cell counts). Depending on physician orders, DuoDerm dressings can be used on stage 1, 2, 3 and 4 bed sores.
The length of time a DuoDerm patch may be left on a wound is determined by the amount of moisture in the wound. Under normal conditions, DuoDerm can be left on the wound for 3-4 days. One of the advantages to using DuoDerm is that, unlike other dressings, it can be placed on wet wounds and wet surrounding skin and will remain in place due to the product's 'wet tact'.
Because DuoDerm essentially creates a moisture barrier, they should not be used on people with infected bed sores. Under normal circumstances, wounds covered with DuoDerm are likely to develop a strong odor after several days. The odor is consider to be a normal part of of the product.

Friday 2nd March 2012by nikaugabrielle
Katherine, Emma and Maddy and our mate, the bouncer.
This photo makes me laugh because no one knew he was there…till they saw the photo. They all wore beanies on the same day, by accident? or because beanies are cool. Huffer sent them down the runway along with some awesome raincoats. I want a raincoat, no I need a rain coat. It would be perfect for our Auckland weather. Any way Collection 4 was the coolest so far. The standout outfit for me was the Workshop leather dress, worn with highlighter yellow sunnies. So fly. I liked the Huffer collection too, even more then when I saw them at Fashion Week. After the show we went back to Ken Yakitori Bar. It was even better this time!
Matt in Huffer, cool shirt and beanie and raincoat
Kendell in Workshop, cool collar
Huffer, i like this look, its super cute.
THIS was the standout for the entire show. Sakura rocked this leather Workshop dress.
Kelvin in Helen Cherry, loved it, the designer herself was wearing one backstage
Me, Maddy, Lani, Emma and Katherine post show madness and hunger. We hit up Ken Yakatori again.

Patient was escorted from the radiology department to physical therapy for crutch fitting and training. She will treat the hip conservatively for several weeks and have a consultation with orthopedics.
Stress fractures and osteoid osteoma can have very similar radiographic and scintigraphic appearances; in equiviocal cases the two can usually be differentiated with T1-weighted MRI and characteristic features of patient history (e.g. night pain, relieved with asprin). In this case, the patient's occupation as a military recruit, and the worsening of the pain with running, along with the characteristic location of the periosteal reaction on the plain films, clarifies the diagnosis. Treatment for this patient is initially conservative.
Discussion Author: Grady Shue
Read more about Stress fracture
If bone is placed under the excess stress, the rate of resorption will exceed the rate of bone replacement. This results in weakened cortical bone with buttressing by periosteal and endosteal new bone. If resorption continues to exceed replacement, a stress fracture will occur.
Stress fracture is a continuum of injury from an early remodeling reaction to overt fracture. If diagnosed and treated early, a discrete fracture line may never develop. Skeletal scintigraphy is very sensitive to the remodeling process and typically shows abnormalities 1-2 weeks or more before the appearance of radiographic changes in stress fractures.
Stress fracture can be graded as to its severity (Zwas criteria) in tibial bones: Grade 1 â small ill-defined cortical area of mildly increased activity; grade 2 â larger well defined elongated cortical area of moderately increased activity; grade 3 â wide fusiform cortico-medullary area of highly increased activity; grade 4 â extensive transcortical area of intensely increased activity.
MRI can provide more information in the evaluation of bone pain and does not expose the patient to ionizing radiation. MRI can identify marrow edema early in the stress response, making the technique competitive in early sensitivity. MRI can also differentiate the marrow edema of the stress reaction from the presence of a true fracture. Fractures are visualized as linear abnormalities on T1 scans.

The famous broadway comedian Joe Cook made his return to film with this story about an Eastern tenderfoot named Arizona Mahoney who owns his own small travelling circus, consisting of an elephant, a goose, and an old cannon. Arizona's partner Randall (Robert Cummings) decides to quit the circus business and settle down, in order to woo Sue Bixby (Martel). Not to be left alone, Arizona decides to do the same by becoming a real cowboy, to humorous results. The bumbling cowboy somehow manages to capture a gang of cattle rustlers with the help of his elephant, and becomes the hero of the town. Very ill during the filming of this movie, Joe Cook died shortly after it was completed. Based on a novel by Zane Grey.
