Expanding Orthopedics Begins Trial in Germany
Expanding Orthopedics Inc. has begun a new clinical study in Germany to evaluate its Xped expanding pedicle screw system. Up to 50 patients will be enrolled in this multi-center study and will be followed for up to 24 months using pain and quality-of-life questionnaires as well as radiographic assessments. Xped was developed because screw loosening is a frequent complication associated with pedicle screw fixation in weak bone and can lead to a revision surgical treatment; and there was a need for a screw that can anchor better in the vertebral body.
"The study is designed to gather clinical data using the Xped System across a wide range of patients," said Peter Douglas Klassen, M.D., the principal investigator of the study and head of the spine surgery and neuro traumatology department at St. Bonifatius Hospital, Lingen, Germany. "These patients typically require enhanced anchoring solutions to obtain sustainable long-term stability of the spine. Today we are using cement to augment pedicle screw fixation in weak bone but believe that using the Xped will be safer and more efficient to treat our patients."
Four patients have already been enrolled, according to Klassen, and he aims to complete enrollment with 20 patients within six months. The patients will then be followed up for 24 months.
"We are delighted to begin this study and are excited to have the opportunity to work with the professional and skilled team of Dr. Klassen who has successfully lead major international clinical studies in the past years," said Ofer Bokobza, CEO of Expanding Orthopedics. "The Xped system, the first product from our expanding device technology platform, is commercially available in Europe and our earliest patients have now reached the two-year follow-up milestone with very encouraging results."
Despite the Xped being on the European market already, Bokobza explained that the study is intended to open doors for the device to be used "standard of care in Europe." It is currently being used as a treatment option for patients with compromised bone.
Expanding Orthopedics is based in Or Akiva, Israel.

What is the best way to paint panelling? We have the old dark maghogany color panelling on one wall in our living room and we just want to know if for know we can just paint it and if so what kind of paint to use.
- Forum >
- Home Design >
- Painting Panelling
I know what you mean, and I definitely painted my old "70's" looking walls. I started with a primer, to prep the panel to take paint and to ensure the paint covers the dark color. Then after 2 coats, I painted with acrylic. It lasted for 4 years, then I moved out. It looked great.
I also recommend pigmented shellac as the primer. Depending on your paneling you may get a lot of the moisture pulled out of the paint resulting in cracking. This happened to us on some old paneling -- we then had to spackle it and install textured wallpaper. The pigmented shellac is rather stinky, but really seals it well. You can paint over it with latex -- you may even be able to have the pigmented shellac tinted to be close to the ultimate color you want to paint it. Should you decide to do the textured wallcovering or a liner paper do a search on paneling in all categories, and you'll see some other suggestions I've made to others.

About Angie Mesing
I am 55 year old female named Jane and love the water and the beauty of the hill country.
Angie Mesing purchased this house in 2005
Why Angie Mesing chose New Braunfels
I purchased the property as an opportunity to retire early. The property is the most beautiful piece I have ever seen so I decided to build out there myself. I reminds me a lot of Landa Park with large green expanses and huge trees everywhere. The water is what attracts me the most so I do boat and own a few seadoos.
What makes this house unique
The property is to die for. It is our best feature. It is so beautiful. 2.5 acres of a park like setting, lush green lawn, huge trees. I have 650' of improved water frontage with a cement walkway along the water. Launching ramp on site with dock. Quiet, serene, a great place to decompress and relax.

CLARION, Iowa – A recent inspection revealed Salmonella bacteria in two poultry barns implicated in an outbreak that sickened roughly 2,000 people and led to the recall of more than 500 million eggs in 2010.
Centrum Valley Farms said the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) found Salmonella Heidelberg bacteria in two of six poultry houses during a routine inspection, according to the Associated Press. The company said the presence of the bacteria did not mean eggs were contaminated. However the company opted to withhold an unspecified number of eggs from the market on food safety concerns.
The eggs were tested multiple times, and the FDA eventually approved them for sale, according to AP.
The plant is under intense scrutiny because it was one of several egg production facilities implicated in the 2010 outbreak. Jack DeCoster owned and operated the facility during the outbreak, and Centrum Valley Farms took over management of the Clarion, Iowa, operation pledging to clean it up.

Businessman says his family gets death threats for hosting undocumented immigrant mother and kids
SAN DIEGO - A businessman says he is getting death threats for fostering a family of undocumented immigrants from Guatemala.
Mark Lane owns Poppa's Fresh Fish Company in Logan Heights. He told our Scripss sister station 10News in California he does not have a position on the immigration crisis but he felt compelled to take a stand against the city of Murrieta when his 5-year-old son asked him why the buses carrying undocumented women and children were blocked.
"He asked me why the people were mad at the buses and I was like, it's 2014 … why do I have to explain to my 5-year-old why people are mad at the buses when really they're mad at the people inside of the buses 'cause they're brown," said Lane.
Lane heard through Border Angels that a family needed someone to host them. The mother, her teenage sons and her 23-year-old daughter fled Guatemala after gangs threatened to kill her sons for not joining their gang. The 23-year-old daughter was raped multiple times during their journey to the United States. The family says they had all of their belongings stolen from them while riding on top of a train through Mexico.
"When they came to our house, they were scared. We had two extra rooms, but they didn't want to be separated so they all piled into one room," said Lane.
He said when word spread through social media that he was hosting the family, someone posted a Facebook page boycotting his business and threatening him. One post read, "Mark Lane needs a serious beating in front of his customers. But then he serves crap food. His establishment is rat infested and smells like raw sewage!"
The site was taken down after a cease and desist order was sent to the administrator. The threats have not stopped, though.
"Now, we're getting death threats," said Lane. "They're going to kill me. They're going to kill my family."
He added, "They think it's OK for them to now threaten my life. They put my kids and my wife's picture on their hate sites, not even the mafia does that."
Immigrant advocate Enrique Morones connected Lane to the family. He says they are doing everything along with law enforcement to support the people who want to help.
"If you have issues with this issue, you should take it out at the ballot box," said Morones. "He's doing what this country is built on – give me your poor, your tired, your huddled masses – he's done that."
The threats have been reported to police. Despite them, Lane says there are far more messages of support to keep him going.
"I'm not going to stop helping families," he said. "When this family leaves, the next family that comes through immigration – our house is open."
Lane says his business is booming despite some on social media were encouraging others to boycott his shop. He says that backfired because of all the national attention.

Seeking an experienced Lead Singer and Drummer with vocal ability to complete lineup
, who will devote themselves to at least one practice a week and at least one gig a month in or outside Ottawa. The musical genre played is Hard Rock. I like a clean distortion. The musical bands of interest are Rush, Led Zeppelin, Boston for the guitar sound, effects and multi vocal tracks and my favourite guitarist Jimi Hendrix plus many more. My concept is to play covers of the above bands yet devote most of the time and energy towards creating Original music. I have found that I can not do this as well without YOU a band. It needs to be a collaboration. We will begin with regular practice at SoundCheck studios in Ottawa, corner of Kirkwood/Carling once a week and take the material into an Ottawa studio to record. Note: I am not interested in any other genre other than Hard Rock but wish to keep the boundaries within a Blues, Folk, Classical, Rock, Classic Rock what ever you want to call it style. It will be a fun and positive experience where all will be able to contribute. Thanks and looking forward to hearing. Here are some links to some past gigs I have been involved with recently:
Can't You See - Fritos Bandidos, recorded July 6, 2014 at Audio Valley Recording Studios. Engineered and Produced by Steve Foley and Dick Cooper. I sang backup, rhythm and lead guitar.

We are 50 something's who practice weekly and gig out occasionally (6 -10 times a year). We are all proficient in our playing abilities and looking for same. We also play more current music, which we can discuss later. Check out my Bandmix site and key in or search 'Guy Berthiaume'. There you will find a few videos of live performances and some audio trax of the Buzz Band. I also have sample set lists to share that give a broader idea of what we like to play.
