The Caps are looking to close out their three-game road trip with a win in Denver. Catch the action beginning at 9 p.m. on CSN.
Capitals Talk
After signing a one-year contract over the summer, Nate Schmidt has emerged as a reliable everyday defenseman for the Capitals.
The Capitals were hoping Brooks Laich would play for them during their three-game road trip. He won't.
Capitals defenseman Brooks Orpik was not surprised to see Olli Maatta return to the lineup two weeks after having a cancerous tumor removed.
Jay Beagle's increased role with the Capitals has come at the expense of Evgeny Kuznetsov.

Article: Soft tissue volume augmentation by the use of collagen-based matrices in the dog mandible -- a histological analysis.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The aim was to test, whether or not soft tissue volume augmentation with a specifically designed collagen matrix (CM), leads to ridge width gain in chronic ridge defects similar to those obtained by an autogenous subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG). In six dogs, soft tissue volume augmentation was performed by randomly allocating three treatment modalities to chronic ridge defects [CM, SCTG and sham-operated control (Control)]. Dogs were sacrificed at 28 (n = 3) and 84 days (n = 3). Descriptive histology and histomorphometric measurements were performed on non-decalcified sections. SCTG and CM demonstrated favourable tissue integration, and subsequent re-modelling over 84 days. The overall mean amount of newly formed soft tissue (NMT) plus bone (NB) amounted to 3.8 ± 1.2 mm (Control), 6.4 ± 0.9 mm (CM) and 7.2 ± 1.2 mm (SCTG) at 28 days. At 84 days, the mean NMT plus NB reached 2.4 ± 0.9 mm (Control), 5.6 ± 1.5 mm (CM) and 6.0 ± 2.1 mm (SCTG). Statistically significant differences were observed between CM/SCTG and Control at both time-points (p < 0.05). Within the limits of this animal model, the CM performed similar to the SCTG, based on histomorphometric outcomes combining NB and NMT.Journal Of Clinical Periodontology 11/2011; 38(11):1063-70. · 3.69 Impact Factor
Article: Evaluation of the tissue reaction to a new bilayered collagen matrix in vivo and its translation to the clinic.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: This study evaluates a new collagen matrix that is designed with a bilayered structure in order to promote guided tissue regeneration and integration within the host tissue. This material induced a mild tissue reaction when assessed in a murine model and was well integrated within the host tissue, persisting in the implantation bed throughout the in vivo study. A more porous layer was rapidly infiltrated by host mesenchymal cells, while a layer designed to be a barrier allowed cell attachment and host tissue integration, but at the same time remained impermeable to invading cells for the first 30 days of the study. The tissue reaction was favorable, and unlike a typical foreign body response, did not include the presence of multinucleated giant cells, lymphocytes, or granulation tissue. In the context of translation, we show preliminary results from the clinical use of this biomaterial applied to soft tissue regeneration in the treatment of gingival tissue recession and exposed roots of human teeth. Such a condition would greatly benefit from guided tissue regeneration strategies. Our findings demonstrate that this material successfully promoted the ingrowth of gingival tissue and reversed gingival tissue recession. Of particular importance is the fact that the histological evidence from these human studies corroborates our findings in the murine model, with the barrier layer preventing unspecific tissue ingrowth, as the scaffold becomes infiltrated by mesenchymal cells from adjacent tissue into the porous layer. Also in the clinical situation no multinucleated giant cells, no granulation tissue and no evidence of a marked inflammatory response were observed. In conclusion, this bilayered matrix elicits a favorable tissue reaction, demonstrates potential as a barrier for preferential tissue ingrowth, and achieves a desirable therapeutic result when applied in humans for soft tissue regeneration.Biomedical Materials 02/2011; 6(1):015010. · 2.92 Impact Factor
Article: A bioreactor test system to mimic the biological and mechanical environment of oral soft tissues and to evaluate substitutes for connective tissue grafts.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Gingival cells of the oral connective tissue are exposed to complex mechanical forces during mastication, speech, tooth movement and orthodontic treatments. Especially during wound healing following surgical procedures, internal and external forces may occur, creating pressure upon the newly formed tissue. This clinical situation has to be considered when developing biomaterials to augment soft tissue in the oral cavity. In order to pre-evaluate a collagen sponge intended to serve as a substitute for autogenous connective tissue grafts (CTGs), a dynamic bioreactor system was developed. Pressure and shear forces can be applied in this bioreactor in addition to a constant medium perfusion to cell-material constructs. Three-dimensional volume changes and stiffness of the matrices were analyzed. In addition, cell responses such as cell vitality and extracellular matrix (ECM) production were investigated. The number of metabolic active cells constantly increased under fully dynamic culture conditions. The sponges remained elastic even after mechanical forces were applied for 14 days. Analysis of collagen type I and fibronectin revealed a statistically significant accumulation of these ECM molecules (P < 0.05-0.001) when compared to static cultures. An increased expression of tenascin-c, indicating tissue remodeling processes, was observed under dynamic conditions only. The results indicate that the tested in vitro cell culture system was able to mimic both the biological and mechanical environments of the clinical situation in a healing wound.Biotechnology and Bioengineering 12/2010; 107(6):1029-39. · 4.16 Impact Factor
Article: Soft tissue volume augmentation by the use of collagen-based matrices: a volumetric analysis.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The aim was to test whether or not soft tissue augmentation with a newly developed collagen matrix (CM) leads to volume gain in chronic ridge defects similar to those obtained by an autogenous subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG). In six dogs, soft tissue volume augmentation was performed by randomly allocating three treatment modalities to chronic ridge defects (CM, SCTG, sham-operated control). Impressions were taken before augmentation (baseline), at 28, and 84 days. The obtained casts were optically scanned and the images were digitally analysed. A defined region of interest was measured in all sites and the volume differences between the time points were calculated. The mean volume differences per area between baseline and 28 days amounted to a gain of 1.6 mm (CM; SD+/-0.9), 1.5 mm (SCTG; +/-0.1), and a loss of 0.003 mm (control; +/-0.3). At 84 days, the mean volume differences per area to baseline measured a gain of 1.4 mm (CM; +/-1.1), 1.4 mm (SCTG; +/-0.4), and a loss of 0.3 mm (control; +/-0.3). The differences between CM and SCTG were statistically significant compared with control at 28 and 84 days (p<0.001). Within the limits of this animal study, the CM may serve as a replacement for autogenous connective tissue.Journal Of Clinical Periodontology 07/2010; 37(7):659-66. · 3.69 Impact Factor

Hello Brenda! I am new to this forum. I have a newspaper column with the death notice of Jochim Lage who is my gg grandfather. He married Bertha K Wiese in Feb 1877 in Davenport IA. What interested me was that included in a list of those attending the funeral were Mr & Mrs Henry Goetsch & son. Also mentioned were the Peter's, Wohlert's, Quirk's, Wasser's, Miller's & Mabel Albertus.
Jochim & Bertha had six children: Minnie, Frances, William, peter, Oscar & Albert. I am thinking that Fred may have been Bertha's brother??? Let me know if I can be of any assistance to you................Thanks, Nona

Lady Gaga Drag Photos: Is Jo Calderone the Singer in Disguise?by Free Britney at . Comments
As we reported yesterday, a set of photos taken by Nick Knight for Japan's "Vogue Hommes" feature a (presumably) male model by the name of Jo Calderone.
A significant number of sources claim, however, that "Jo" is actually Lady Gaga's alter ego, and that the "Poker Face" singer went incognito for the photo shoot.
Seriously, people think this guy is her.
The only definitive connection between the two is stylist Nicola Formicetti, but some Gaga fans remain adamant. "I'd put money on it," said one observer.
Think it's her? Check him/her out ...
Is this Vogue Japan model actually Lady Gaga in drag?
"The nose gives it away to start. Then the eyes, then the girly mouth." The apparent lack of Adam's apple would be another clue, THG readers have opined.
Other evidence and theories circulating online:
- The mystery model's first name, Jo, corresponds with Gaga's middle name, Joanne (her birth name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta).
- ABC News points out that "Jo Calderone" is an anagram of "Alejandro" ... with an extra c and o. Brilliant detective work there, ABC News.
- Last year's Lady Gaga hermaphrodite rumors not only failed to rankle the star - she seemed to embrace, even feed into that bit of gossip.
What do you think? Is it her? Vote below ...
i think lady gaga has more boobs than that.
This is bullshit, Gaga is a Lady! And a HOT one anyway!
he is an ugly model
Who is this Gaga person anyway ?Oh, it turns out that the guy, if it is a guy,really isn't that Gaga person. Not that I care, because I don't know either one of them anyway.Neither of them are close personal friends of mine or anything.
I don't think that guy is her and IF it was her whocares
This for sure is Gaga.
ManGa-Ga all the way!
i don't care either way, but that is def a female.
No not really iloveyou(:-she is not HOT either way!!
who cares? lol,
she's totally hot either way(:

HOUSTON (AP) — The Lyndon B. Johnson Foundation has given former President George H.W. Bush an award for his public service and government career.
Bush was given the LBJ Liberty and Justice for All Award Tuesday at his Houston office. The foundation said in a written statement that Bush personifies his fellow Texan president's vision for America.
Johnson's two daughters, Luci Baines Johnson and Lynda Johnson Robb, attended the presentation of the award to Bush and his wife, Barbara.
This is the second time the foundation has given the award. The first recipient was U.S. Rep. John Lewis, the Georgia Democrat and civil rights leader.

Immigration reform nowJuly 05,2014Nearly 10 years ago, I witnessed my community come together in defense of a family that had been torn apart. A migrant farm worker had been detained and deported to El Salvador, leaving his wife and three children behind, the youngest only six months old.
Our community came together because these people were not illegals, or trespassers they were our neighbors, our community members and, most importantly, our friends. Their kids went to school with me and my brothers, and they worked for businesses that supported our local economy.
Today, I join 1,500 women from all over the country in a fast to urge Congress and President Obama to end the millions of deportations that are tearing families apart. They have the power to advance immigration reform, yet they stand by idly, accepting no responsibility or accountability for turning the lives of millions upside-down.
Vermont is home to over 1,500 migrant workers and their families, and not a single one of them should have to live in fear of being taken away from their loved ones. As a community, we should be insisting that our local law enforcement comply with Vermonts Bias Free Policing Law, instead of helping immigration enforcement take caregivers and mothers away from their children.
Today, I am fasting to show Congress and the president that I am not afraid to stand up for whats right. Maybe then, they will find the courage to do the same.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Lidia Gonzalez Vallejo was born on February 5, 1961 to Mariano and Eugenia Robledo Gonzalez. On Sunday, December 8, 2013 she was called to join her parents and our God creator in Heaven. On July 3, 1980 Lidia married the love of her life Emilio. They were childhood friends who became sweethearts for life. They were blessed with three children, daughters Crystal Gail Vallejo, Lilly Garcia and son Emilio Vallejo Jr. She was a dedicated wife mother and grandmother (a.k.a. mom) what her grandchildren called her.
Winnie Mae Trimble Sauer, 95, of Eldorado, passed from this life on November 21, 2013. Winnie Mae was born on November 27, 1917, in Menard County, TX. She was the third of ten children of Reason Seth Trimble and Alien Mae Mogford Trimble. Winnie Mae began her formal education in the Ellis Community School in Menard County, then received her high school diploma from Sonora High School in Sonora, Texas. From there, she went to San Angelo College for an Associate in Arts Degree.
It was in San Angelo that Winnie Mae met and shared a room with Cora and Rosa Sauer, who introduced her to their brother and her future husband, Clemens Frank Sauer. Clemens and Winnie were married on September 25, 1939 in Ingram, Texas. They lived in Kerrville, where their first daughter Christabel was born, until 1943, when they moved to the Reynolds Community in western Schleicher County. There they built the home where they raised their family and lived the remainder of their 65-year marriage and of both their lives.
Bobbye Ann Mason Swinford was born May 13, 1933 in Ranger, Texas to Ralph Meredith and Nancy Katherine (Browning) Mason. She died Sunday morning, November 17, 2013 in Little Rock, Arkansas.
She graduated from Crane, Texas High School in 1951. While in high school she played clarinet and was a baton twirler in the band. In June of 1951, she married Leonard Tomlinson and spent many years moving from town to town, first as an Air Force military wife and later as a Methodist minister's wife. When that chapter closed, she was reacquainted with an old friend through the matchmaking schemes of her mother and his sister. Bobbye and Fagin Swinford married in July, 1972 in Hobbs, New Mexico.
Thomas Duncan Bradley, born June 28, 1925, in Eldorado, died in Fernley, Nevada, October 15, 2013. A veteran of WWII, he retired from the Navy after serving 23 years, and then he worked as an electrician for a concrete company in Fernley. He was a long-time resident of Silver Springs, Nevada, after his retirement. For many years, he and his wife spent their winters in Matzalan, Mexico and then in later years in Del Rio, Texas.

A few weeks ago, I took my mom shopping for a refrigerator to replace the one that had been in the kitchen since the Nixon administration. Pleasantries with the salesman took a more somber turn when he revealed that his wife has breast cancer and is seeking to heal herself solely through the power of prayer. My mom listened attentively, then touched the salesman on the chest and said, authoritatively, "Carrot juice! And blueberries!"
She is a believer in the restorative powers of fruits and vegetables, and of wholesome living more generally. She doesn't reject modern medicine, nor would she seek a miracle cure through prayer or New Age therapies. But she is not someone terribly interested in medicine, or technology in general, preferring to exist in a world that is like the one she grew up in — simple, natural, earthy. She has spent her years outdoors, growing plants, doing landscaping, surrounding herself with flowers. She has often ended the day with a cold beer under the grape arbor in her back yard. The yard is a two-acre botanical wonder where she and my stepfather, Jim, have their nursery, plus a robust garden, productive citrus trees and winding footpaths among native plants and towering trees.

Mo to Su from 09:00 AM to 05:00 PMA century ago, here in the Latin Quarter of Tampa, cigar maker Vincente Martinez Ybor began an industry that brought this city worldwide renown—those famed Tampa cigars. Here, too, poet and patriot Jose Marti, the hero of Cuban liberation, plotted and pleaded for his cause. History surrounds you in Ybor City where one thing seems hardly to have changed at all in a century—a strong sense of pride in community and culture. You can learn more about all that in this museum where the past is chronicled in yellowing pages, spidery script and cigar bands. It's poignant, stirring and just a little sad. Ybor City's far from sad these days, however. It's in the midst of a renaissance, the likes of which it hasn't seen for many years. Now the streets rock on weekends, and the fiesta goes on and on and on, well into the wee hours.

Houston (CBS Houston) – Jadeveon Clowney missed part of the off-season program after having sports hernia surgery, but on Saturday he was out on the practice field for day one of training camp.
"(Clowney) is practicing and he's rehabbing," Bill O'Brien said after practice." We're staying with the rehab protocol which allows him to practice a little bit and we'll just stick with that and he'll be fine."
Clowney went through a full practice but said he wasn't at 100 percent.
"I'm getting better. Taking it one day at a time," Clowney said after practice. "I'm just letting the trainers take it one day at a time. I'm trying to comeback, get back for the first game."
The Texans will wear full pads on Monday. If Clowney is able to participate then, he's likely on track for a speedy recovery.

Winning and Losing on the Western Front
The British Third Army and the Defeat of Germany in 1918

moreThe 'Hundred Days' campaign of 1918 remains a neglected aspect of the First World War. Why was the German army defeated on the Western Front? Did its morale collapse or was it beaten by the improved military effectiveness of a British army which had climbed a painful 'learning curve' towards modern combined arms warfare? This revealing insight into the crucial final months of the First World War uses state-of-the-art methodology to present a rounded case study of the ability of both armies to adapt to the changing realities they faced. Jonathan Boff draws on both British and German archival sources, some of them previously unseen, to examine how representative armies fought during the 'Hundred Days' campaign. Assessing how far the application of modern warfare underpinned the British army's part in the Allied victory, the book highlights the complexity of modern warfare and the role of organisational behaviour within it. less

text: How to Jump Higher to Dunk a Basketball By Cade O. Today's market offers hundreds of solutions that can help you jump higher. A number of them can be found in the internet. How to choose the best program to help you answer your question how to jump higher? Cade tells you one method below and I can give you the access to the manual which help you jump higher in just 2 weeks. If you play any sport that involves jumping, you will benefit from learning how to jump higher. Volleyball and basketball are the two sports that require the most jumping. The approach in volleyball is one where you can go full out and nobody will step in your way so you can expect to jump your highest. There are many ways to train for every sport and some are more effective than others. When comes to increasing your vertical leap you need to remember that you aren't only training the muscle itself but also the reaction time and your stretch reflex receptors. You need to train at maximum intensity if you are going to see improvement in your vertical explosion. Doing small submaximal repetitive jumps will only train your muscles to do exactly that, jump continually at a minimal heights. For volleyball training you need to focus on low reps in each set of jumps. If you are a blocker you need to focus on jump exercises that don't have an approach. Using a chair, do jumps from a seated position exploding up to jump onto a box at least 2 feet high. Do only 8 reps on a high enough box that the eighth rep is difficult to finish. So how exaclty should you train to get the most of out of a plyometric training program? This is the question that has been studied by coaches and athletes for years. Working out improperly in the gym will result in you doing a lot of work and getting very little results from it. You need to learn how to train smarter not harder when it comes to plyos. It may come as a surprise but there are workout programs that will increase your vert 2 inches in only 2 weeks. This could make the difference of making a kill or getting blocked. Imagine training for 2 months and adding 10 inches to your vertical! These results are not impossible. Remember to always check with a doctor before undergoing any excessive training and never train when you are sore. Squats are a very good exercise to build the strength of the legs. Before you move on to plyos you need to be able to do 10 squats in 10 seconds with your weight on the bar. If you can do this then start training for speed. Box jumps are a very good way to start. Find a box about 2 feet high and do sets of 8 reps as fast as you can. Rest completely between sets. THE JUMP MANUAL: The only program that targets every facet of vertical explosion. Effectively training every aspect of vertical jump is the only way to maximize your vertical jump explosion.

BLOOMINGTON – After his team defeated Florida State on Sunday to advance to the College World Series, Indiana manager Tracy Smith mentioned that he modeled his team after a rival school two hours from Bloomington.
Today, his Hoosiers will face that team – Louisville – in the first game of their first College World Series in Omaha, Neb. Indiana is guaranteed two games in this weekend's double-elimination opening round.
The CWS begins today with Mississippi State facing No. 3 national seed Oregon State. Sunday's openers pit No. 1 seed North Carolina against rival North Carolina State and UCLA against No. 4 seed LSU.
Smith mentioned Louisville specifically because the Cardinals made their first-ever College World Series in 2007 after building their program and recruiting talent in the Midwest, just as IU has done in recent seasons. IU senior shortstop Michael Basil said the Cardinals have soundly defeated the Hoosiers in recent seasons.
They beat us almost every time they played us, Basil said. We knew that they were the team in our region that we would like to go and be better than.
This season, however, the IU players made it a goal of theirs to defeat Louisville twice out of their three meetings. They accomplished that, defeating Louisville at a neutral site and in Bloomington.
But Smith said he puts no stock in the regular-season success against the Cardinals. The final time the two teams met was March 27, and since then, Louisville has gone 32-7, capped by a sweep of the No. 2 national seed Vanderbilt in the super regional. Louisville's pitching staff gave up four runs on 12 hits in the two games.
Smith said the Louisville bullpen, which gave up just three hits and a run in six innings against Vanderbilt, is more dangerous than just about any in the country.
I think you've got to have a lead by the fifth or sixth inning, because what they're able to do with their bullpen is what the rest of us can't do, which is play matchups literally every inning and still have quality after quality after quality arm, Smith said. We've got to get out to a good start and I hope the bats will do that.
The Hoosiers have consistently gotten off to fast starts this season. They have scored in the first inning of 28 of their 62 games and have a 59-24 scoring margin in the first.
Junior southpaw Joey DeNato will start against Louisville junior Chad Green. DeNato will try to limit walks, which he has struggled to do this season, and hold runners on the basepaths, at which he excels.
While much of the attention is falling on the rematch between the teams, Basil said that when it comes down to it, the games this weekend will be more about IU does that what its opponents do.
Once you step on the field, it's just baseball, Basil said. It's what we've been doing all year long, so we try not to focus too much on who we're playing, but on what we're actually doing with our game.

Implementing Health Reform: 2016 Benefit And Payment Parameters Proposed Rule, Consumer Provisions; Hardship Exemptions
November 22nd, 2014
On November 15, 2014, the marketplaces reopened for 2015. Anecdotal reports indicate that in most places enrollment and reenrollment are running smoothly. But the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is looking forward to 2016. On November 21 CMS published its massive 2016 Notice of Benefit and Payment Parameters (BPP) Proposed Rule with accompanying fact sheet. It also published the draft 2016 actuarial value calculator and draft actuarial value calculator methodology for 2016. Finally, CMS published a guidance on hardship exemptions for certain individuals.
Not to be outdone, the Department of the Treasury, Internal Revenue Service released its final regulation on Minimum Essential Coverage and other Rules Regarding the Shared Responsibility Payment for Individuals, together with a Notice regarding Individual Shared Responsibility Payment Hardship Exemptions that May be Claimed on a Federal Income Tax Return Without Obtaining a Hardship Exemption Certificate from the Marketplace and a Revenue Procedure setting out indexed adjusted percentages of income that will be used for determining the level of contributions expected of individuals before premium tax credits become available, the affordability threshold for the shared responsibility payments unaffordability exemption, and the threshold for determining whether employer coverage is affordable for purposes of determining eligibility for tax credits.
Finally, the Office of Personnel Management released a lengthy proposed rule proposing modifications in the multi-state plan program. These rules, proposed rules, and guidances will be addressed in a series of posts over the next several days. This post will address primarily the consumer-facing provisions of the BPP proposed rule, focusing on changes in benefits. A second post will follow, discussing the provisions of the rule more relevant to insurers, such as proposed changes in the reinsurance, risk adjustment, and risk corridor rules. A final post will discuss the IRS rule, which is primarily a finalization of proposals and guidances already made public, and the OPM multi-state plan rule.Read the rest of this entry »

The fate of where the next-gen Jeep Wrangler will be assembled may have been settled, thanks to the fact that there will be no unibody Wrangler anytime soon.
With the possibility of an aluminum Jeep Wrangler being built elsewhere, the United Auto Workers and political leaders are coming together to convince Fiat Chrysler Automobiles to keep the icon in Toledo, Ohio.
Automotive News reports the United Auto Workers has elected secretary-treasurer Dennis Williams, who served in the role under now-retired president Bob King, as the union's new president in a 3215 to 49 vote during the 36th UAW Constitutional Convention in Detroit. Williams, who came from the agricultural wing of the union, is the first union president not to have worked in the automotive industry.
With the Econoline passing the torch to the Transit Connect at the end of this year, Ford is in the process of moving production of the F-650 and F-750 from Mexico to Ohio in time for the medium-duty trucks' redesign for 2015.
Car dealers trying to head off Tesla Motors' attempts to set up factory-direct showrooms in Ohio lost a round last month when a dealership licensing amendment that would have blocked Tesla from selling vehicles direct to retail customers in the state wasn't voted upon in the state legislature. Now the dealers are trying the litigation route, suing Tesla and state agencies to have Tesla's retail license voided. The defendants are Tesla, the Ohio Department of Public Safety and the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles. The plaintiffs include Midwestern Auto Group in Dublin, Ohio, and Ricart Automotive Group, of Groveport, Ohio. (Read More…)
WKYC-TV reports that when Norman Gurley was pulled over for allegedly speeding in Lorain County, Ohio on Tuesday, State Highway Patrol officers arrested him for having a hidden compartment on his car, charged with a felony despite the fact that he was not violating drug, weapon or any other contraband laws. Gurley thus became the first person charged under Ohio's relatively new "hidden compartment" law intended, supposedly, to stop drug smuggling. The law states: "No person shall knowingly operate, possess, or use a vehicle with a hidden compartment with knowledge that the hidden compartment is used or intended to be used to facilitate the unlawful concealment or transportation of a controlled substance." That may create a problem if you drive a Dodge Dart in Ohio. (Read More…)
It's a video that simultaneously sends chills down the spine of every motorcyclist and confirms the worst fears of those who advocate for distracted-driving laws. A young man is flying down the right lane of a freeway at night in a V8-powered sedan. There is a couple riding a motorcycle at a normal speed in the middle of the lane. Without so much as touching the brakes, the young man hits the motorcycle, putting both of the riders in the hospital. After asking "Are you okay?" the driver starts checking his car for damage.
There's no obvious malice in the video and the driver is stone-cold sober. It seems like an obvious case of texting and driving. When asked what caused the accident, the driver insists on referring questions to his attorney. But why he has an attorney isn't immediately obvious, because he's not being charged with anything.
What's going on?

"Elmwood Place is engaged in nothing more than a high-tech game of 3-Card Monty, (sic)" Ruehlman wrote, referring to a card game used by con artists.
And with that phrase, Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Robert Ruehlman stopped a six-thousand-ticket-per-month operation.
A bipartisan effort to overturn a controversial Ohio Supreme Court ruling garnered the support of twelve of the state Senate's thirty-three members in just four days. Senators Tim Grendell (R-Chesterland) and Capri S. Cafaro (D-Hubbard) jointly introduced legislation on Thursday that would forbid police from issuing speeding tickets based solely on the officer's best speed guess.

To assess whether hepatitis C virus infection was a risk factor for the development of non-alcoholic liver cirrhosis, antibody to hepatitis C virus (anti-HCV; detected by a second generation HCV enzyme immunoassay), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg; detected by radioimmunoassay) were tested in 150 cirrhotics and 150 sex-matched and age-matched healthy controls. The prevalence of anti-HCV and HBsAg in cirrhotics was higher than in controls (22.0%, 73.3% vs. 2%, 18.7%; P = 0.001). The prevalence of anti-HCV in HBsAgnegative cirrhotics (45.0%) was higher than that in HBsAg-positive patients (13.6%; P =0.001). Both the anti-HCV and carriage of HBsAg were associated significantly with liver cirrhosis, showing odds ratio of 12.0 for HBsAg carriers and 13.8 for patients with anti-HCV. Compared with those without HBsAg and anti-HCV, there was a significantly positive linear trend for developing cirrhosis with the presence of HBsAg alone (odds ratio = 19.9), anti-HCV alone (odds ratio = 49.0), and those positive for HBsAg and anti-HCV (odds ratio = 81.8) (P = 0.00001). The population-attributable risk for developing liver cirrhosis was estimated as 10.8% for anti-HCV alone, 55.2% for HBsAg alone, and 9.4% for both anti-HCV and HBsAg in southern Taiwan. In conclusion, this study shows that hepatitis B and C virus infection act independently and synergistically in the development of non-alcoholic liver cirrhosis among Chinese in Taiwan.
