Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery shortlisted for share in £75,000 scheme for contemporary craft.
6th April 2011
Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery shortlisted for share in £75,000 scheme for contemporary craft.
The Art Fund and the Crafts Council today announce that Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery has been shortlisted for Art Fund Collect, a £75,000 scheme bringing outstanding pieces of contemporary craft to museums and galleries across the UK. Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery is one of eight museums and galleries in the running this year.
Art Fund Collect is a joint scheme run by the Art Fund and the Crafts Council. It offers curators the chance to pick a unique piece of craft at COLLECT, the Crafts Council's international art fair for contemporary objects. Successful curators win a share of £75,000 to buy their chosen object outright on behalf of their museum or gallery.
Fiona Slattery and Martin Ellis, Curators of Applied Arts will take part in the scheme on behalf of Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery. Zelina Garland, Curatorial Services Manager at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery said:
"Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery is delighted to have been shortlisted! Art Fund Collect offers continuing support for Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery's contemporary collecting, and is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a major piece of contemporary applied art during a challenging financial environment. If successful, this will raise the profile of Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery as an actively collecting organisation, and enhance its nationally important applied art collection."
The other shortlisted curators and their seven respective institutions are:
- Rachel Conroy, Assistant Curator at National Museum Wales - Amgueddfa Cymru
- Penny Sexton, Curator & Holly Morgenroth, Assistant Curator of Natural History at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum, Exeter
- Polly Putnam, Assistant Curator of Decorative Arts at Leeds Museums & Galleries
- James Beighton, Curator at mima Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art
- Francesca Vanke, Curator of Decorative Arts and Dr Andrew Moore Keeper of Art and Senior Curator at Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery
- Pamela Wood, Keeper of Decorative Arts and Deborah Dean, Visual Arts and Exhibitions Manager at Nottingham Castle Museum & Art Gallery
- Alison Cooper, Assistant Keeper of Art at Plymouth City Museum & Art Gallery
Stephen Deuchar, Director of the Art Fund, said: "It's fantastic to see that Art Fund Collect continues to draw some of the UK's most talented curators, and we're pleased that this year's shortlist includes past competitors as well as some new names. This is a fantastic opportunity to snap up outstanding pieces from international makers at the top of their field, on behalf of the public collections across the UK. We wish all competitors the best of luck, and as ever encourage them to be bold and ambitious in their choices."
Rosy Greenlees, Executive Director of the Crafts Council, said: "Art Fund Collect is such a significant scheme for contemporary craft in the UK. As the Crafts Council celebrates its 40th anniversary this year by focusing on, and developing, our own collection it is heartening to see the desire of curators across the UK to collect world-class contemporary craft for their institutional collections."
Art Fund Collect takes place on 5 May 2011, the preview day of COLLECT which is being held at the Saatchi Gallery for the third year running.
Fiona Slattery and Martin Ellis and the other shortlisted curators will access the fair ahead of private buyers and VIPs, and one day before doors open to the public. They will have just one hour to go around the 37 international galleries represented at COLLECT and pick one object they wish to add to their museum or gallery's public collection.
Curators are then required to justify their choice in a verbal presentation to the panel of judges. Winners are selected according to the vision and ambition they demonstrate. The Art Fund buys the winning objects on behalf of each successful museum or gallery.
This is the first time that Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery has applied to take part in the scheme.
Art Fund Collect was set up by the Art Fund and Crafts Council in 2008 as a way of boosting public collections with the best of international contemporary craft. To date, the scheme has contributed £200,000 towards the purchase of unique works for the public to enjoy.
A total of 18 institutions applied and the judging panel met on 23 March to draw up the shortlist. In 2010, five curators won an object for their public collections at Art Fund Collect. The winners were: Aberdeen Art Gallery; the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford; the Royal Albert Memorial Museum & Art Gallery, Exeter; Shipley Art Gallery, Gateshead; and the Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester. A total of eleven museums and galleries were shortlisted.

SCHENECTADY, N.Y. -- Police release new information in the police-involved shooting at the Schenectady Daily Gazette newspaper this past weekend.
Police have now charged Elvis Norwood, 21, in the incident. Norwood is charged with burglary, attempted aggravated assault on a police officer, menacing a police officer, and criminal possession of a weapon.
Police said Norwood walked into the offices of the Gazette Saturday afternoon, showed a knife and refused to leave.
Schenectady police believe Norwood was suicidal when he entered the building. Norwood was shot several times by police, after they said he refused to put the knife down. Norwood is recovering at Albany Medical Center, where he's listed in stable condition. He will be arraigned at the hospital by a Schenectady City Criminal Judge.

No debate about it: Big Bird is small potatoes when it comes to federal budget
BY LORI RACKL TV firstname.lastname@example.com October 4, 2012 8:14PM
Pop culture Mitt Romney introduced Big Bird to the pop culture election campaign after the first presidential debate. | AP
Updated: November 6, 2012 6:24AM
GOP nominee Mitt Romney sure ruffled some feathers — large, yellow ones — when he said during Wednesday's presidential debate that he'd wipe out PBS' federal funding.
Romney told veteran PBS news anchor Jim Lehrer, whose subpar performance as moderator wasn't exactly a ringing endorsement for public broadcasting, that he likes PBS. And he loves Big Bird. But that wouldn't stop him from shutting off the spigot that's funneled federal tax dollars into PBS' coffers since the network was founded more than 40 years ago.
Let's channel one of Big Bird's colleagues, Count von Count, and do some math: The federal government gave $445 million this year to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which distributes that money to PBS and, to a lesser degree, NPR member stations across the country.
That $445 million works out to about 1/100 of 1 percent of the federal budget.
That's like me saying I'm going to lose weight by trimming my nails.
I realize that $445 million, no matter how small a blip on the budget, is still a lot of cash. But if Uncle Sam put all of our money to this good of use, I'd voluntarily climb into the next income-tax bracket.
"Both candidates talked about the importance of education, and PBS is America's biggest classroom," said Dan Schmidt, president and CEO of WTTW-Channel 11, the most-watched public television station in the country, serving 65 percent of Illinois residents and reaching into parts of Indiana, Wisconsin and Michigan.
Federal appropriations account for roughly 5 percent of WTTW's $40 million annual budget, made up mostly of individual donations and support from corporations and foundations.
Other PBS affiliates, especially those in rural areas, rely much more on federal subsidies. While Big Bird would survive without federal money thanks to "Sesame Street's" product sales and other revenue streams, those stations could go dark if Romney pulled the plug on funding, and PBS programming in general would suffer.
"We're helping to raise the literacy rate in America and that's been proven," Schmidt said about PBS' nearly 360 member stations. "We provide 22,000 curriculum-based educational programs in schools across America. We're one of the only places where everyone can have access to performing arts and cultural events. And we're increasingly the only place where you can get a brand of journalism that's right down the middle and in-depth."
In a nationwide Harris Interactive poll conducted earlier this year, PBS outscored ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC and Fox News when it came to fairness in news coverage. It was named the most educational TV/media brand and the top provider of content for helping children build reading and math skills. Only military defense ranked above PBS as the best value for the U.S. tax dollar.
"This is not about the budget," said Schmidt, adding that Republicans have had their sights set on PBS funding going back many years. "It's an ideological issue for [Romney's] base and it's symbolic. He wants to be able to say he's eliminated, whole cloth, entire programs. It's an easy target."
It's also a touchy one, as evidenced by the flock of Big Bird memes, tweets and Facebook posts that continued to light up the Internet well into Thursday, when President Obama resurrected the issue at a campaign stop in Madison, Wis.
"I just want to make sure I've got this straight: He'll get rid of regulations on Wall Street, but he's going to crack down on 'Sesame Street,' " Obama said of his opponent. "Thank goodness somebody's finally cracking down on Big Bird. … Elmo's got to watch out!"

The War on Drugs has claimed many innocent bystanders, and perhaps no case illustrates this as plainly as that of Leroy "BJ" Brown, Jr.
Though he was killed by a dealer trying to beat a murder rap, there are some who feel his death is at least partly the responsibility of lax law enforcement.
BJ grew up in Bridgeport, Connecticut, a run-down city with a massive drug problem. At 7, he became a key witness in a case against drug dealer Russell Peeler, who was charged with killing BJ's mom's fiance, Rudy Snead.
AMERICAN JUSTICE® investigates why BJ and his mother did not receive witness protection, despite the obvious danger they were in.
Through interviews with key figures in the case, THE BOY WHO SAW TOO MUCH details the chain of events that led to Peeler's brother bursting into their apartment and killing the boy and his mother.
His life was exchanged for a handful of crack cocaine, and his death led many to wonder why the authorities apparently chose to protect the criminals, and not the bystanders who witnessed their crimes.

Quick Spin: Superformance GT40 MkI is vehicular sashimi, raw and delicious
by Jonathon Ramsey (RSS feed) on Oct 13th, 2009 at 11:58AM
As much as we enjoy piloting modern machinery, there's something special about vintage vehicles, and that something is the pure, unvarnished connection between man and machine. But it's not always good. Things get dicey when the driving experience is a little too vintage. Despite our supreme adoration of the racing greats of yesteryear, clawing at the wheel, pulverizing the brake pedal, dumping buckets of sweat onto the leather seat and having our sphincter perform kegels isn't always our preferred flavor of fun. Some days, we're just not that hardcore. So the vintage vehicles we've come... Read More

Mark Webber will be in the running for a 2014 race seat at Red Bull, according to team owner Dietrich Mateschitz.
The Australian's future at Red Bull was thrown into doubt at the Malaysian Grand Prix after team-mate Sebastian Vettel "stole" victory from him by ignoring team orders.
Although there were initial fears that he could quit the team, Webber's father, Alan, as well as team principal Christian Horner have assured fans that he will see out his contract.
The veteran has been on a rolling contract with the Milton Keynes squad the past few years and there are doubts over whether he would want to continue for an eighth season with the team following the latest fall-out.
However Mateschitz says from Red Bull's side, Webber will be in contention for a race seat along with Toro Rosso duo Jean-Eric Vergne and Daniel Ricciardo.
"Whether he retires, only he will choose, but Mark is definitely a candidate for 2014," Mateschitz told German publication Speedweek.
"He is always welcome with us, so too would be a quick junior like Vergne or Ricciardo from the Toro Rosso team.
"Sorry, I know it's a diplomatic answer which leaves everything open, but that's how it is. Everything else is pure speculation."
One person whose name has also been thrown into the hat in recent months is that of Kimi Raikkonen. The Finn has been outstanding since his return to Formula One with Lotus at the start of this season.

From catapults to laser cannons, examine the machines called in to do the dirty work of warfare.
When the enemy is dug in, defending their castle, or otherwise well fortified, it is time to call in the SIEGE MACHINES. Ever since mankind has waged war, we have developed weapons specifically intended to overcome difficult defenses. Often, they have ended up deciding more than the outcome of specific conflicts--they have changed the way wars are fought.
From the initial long-range missile weapon--the slingshot--to laser cannons and other space-age devices, MODERN MARVELS® traces the development of these deadly devices. Through the commentary of military scholars, visits to important weapons collections and exciting re-enactments, the program shows how some of the most famous siege devices work, and we'll see how the principles developed during the age of trebuchets and catapults applies to the world of modern warfare.
The best offense may be a good defense, but even the best defense can be overcome!

Lotus scrapes together enough money to restore production
by Dan Roth (RSS feed) on Apr 27th, 2012 at 4:15PM
"The past four months have been really tough for us," admits Lotus CEO Dany Bahar to Autocar magazine. "We were working at a pace nobody had seen at Lotus for many years," Bahar continued, alluding to the British sports car maker's planned rollout of four models over five years that recently had recently hit the skids thanks to a 60-day financial freeze at Malaysian parent DRB-Hicom. "The shut-down, as I call it," Bahar continued, "was very hard for us," but the Lotus boss forcefully rejects media reports that his company is being shopped to potential buyers.

Commenting on news that Carphone Warehouse and Dixons Retail have revealed plans for a £3.7 billion merger, Wil Rockall, a director in KPMG's cyber security team, says:
"From your fridge to your phone, we live in a world where intelligent devices are becoming more adept at 'talking' to each other. It makes sense to think about the dependencies these devices have on each other - and from the consumers' point of view, what this means if there is a glitch in the system, or if criminals could subvert these capabilities for their own ends. Put simply, connected devices need a connected service – but they need to know it will be secure.
"Whilst today's news should mean consumers benefit from pooled expertise, some will also wonder whether the impact of bringing so many connected devices under one roof will mean data about the way they live their lives is more easily accessible and less easily forgotten. Either way, it'll be exciting to see what comes out of the plans and it'll certainly give people a different perspective on their fridge."

Editor's note: The Empowered Patient is a regular feature from CNN senior medical correspondent Elizabeth Cohen that helps put you in the driver's seat when it comes to health care.
(CNN) -- The Food and Drug Administration advised patients Friday to keep taking a popular cholesterol drug even though it might contain specks of glass, reversing advice it gave just a day ago.
Millions of people take Ranbaxy Pharmaceutical's generic Lipitor, or atorvastatin, and many have been calling pharmacies confused about whether to take the drugs they have in their medicine cabinets.
Ranbaxy initiated a recall November 9 and told pharmacies to stop dispensing the drug, but gave no advice to consumers about what to do with what was in their medicine cabinets.
Dr. Janet Woodcock, director of the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, said the agency would review how it handles communication to the public during recalls.
"It took us some time to figure out what was going on," she said. "We need to fix our process a little bit."
FDA: Stop taking recalled cholesterol drug
Between 3 million and 4 million people take Ranbaxy's atorvastatin, according to Ross Muken, senior managing director at ISI Group. The company has more than a 40% share of the generic Lipitor market.
The FDA made no public statements on the recall until Thursday, when the agency said concerned patients should stop taking their medicine if their pharmacist confirmed it was from a recalled lot.
After a conference call Friday afternoon with pharmacies and other groups, the agency decided to change their guidance.
"Yesterday's statement was poorly phrased," Woodcock said Friday. "It made people think they should stop taking their medicine."
The glass particles are "the size of a grain of sand," she added.
The pills "aren't of the quality we would expect of a drug, but they aren't risky, either," Woodcock said.
Ranbaxy has stopped making atorvastatin while they investigate how the glass got into the drug, according to the FDA.
Recall leaves glass-specked drug in hands of patients

Rihanna and Drake met up at a club last night in New York. It's the first time they've been out together publicly since they broke up (again) in April/May. Can they be "just" friends? It's never worked out that way before. But it's a good thing that they keep trying, right? Or is it a bad thing because the more they keep trying, it's kinda like Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber? Or maybe it's because she wants to see if she can get his "anaconda" up higher than Nicki Minaj. Full Story

More than 35-million Americans started their shopping on Thanksgiving Day. Thousands of others continued the Black Friday tradition. Our Beth Croughan has a look at just how many people shopped and how much money was spent this weekend.
ALBANY, N.Y. -- In less than a week, shoppers have spent nearly $59.1 billion since Thursday, according to numbers released Sunday by the National Retail Federation.
Many making their way to the stores, post Thanksgiving dinner. "I started at 12 at night till 9 o'clock in the morning. Was with the kids, it was hectic, but you know we had a good time," said Ace Devito.
Devito was among 28 percent of Americans who were at the stores by midnight. The retail federation said that was up by about 4 percent from last year.
But, starting the holiday shopping season before then, took a slight bite out of Black Friday numbers. That's according to a report from retail technology company ShopperTrak.
"I've been doing this for so many years, that it's always so so busy. And honestly, my sisters and I actually said it was pretty dead compared to the other years," said Rebecca Cuda of Albany.
Yet, the NRF said their survey shows more people than ever before shopped both online and in-stores Black Friday. The organization estimates about 89 million people.
"I waited till the day of, 12 noon daytime, stores were packed, jam packed. I mean the lines to pay for the stuff was a half hour wait. But it was worth it," said Sal Miller.
According to the NRF, the average person spent $25 more this weekend than in 2011, with spending expected to continue come Cyber Monday.

Derrick Rose's brother: Bulls' trade inactivity could affect return
By JOE COWLEY firstname.lastname@example.com February 21, 2013 4:18PM
Injured Bulls guard Derrick Rose works out before the Chicago Bulls-Miami Heat game Thursday February 21, 2013 at the United Center . | Tom Cruze~Sun-Times
Article Extras
Updated: February 22, 2013 10:47AM
With a brief statement released through the team, Derrick Rose tried to distance himself from comments made by his older brother/manager, Reggie, to ESPN Chicago on Thursday.
"I have always felt that the Bulls organization's goals have been the same as mine, and that is to bring another championship to this city,'' Derrick Rose said 30 minutes before the game against the Miami Heat.
Reggie Rose had said that the Bulls' lack of activity could be a big factor in whether Rose returns from knee surgery this season.
Bulls vice president John Paxson, along with general manager Gar Forman, grabbed Rose in the hallway of the United Center right after his shootaround and brought him into a room for a talk that lasted nearly 10 minutes.
When Rose came out, he had no comment and promised that a statement was forthcoming.
Despite the statement, there was still a cleanup job in progress because of Reggie Rose's comments.
"What have you pieced together?'' Reggie Rose said. ''Have you made any moves? Have you made any trades to get better? You know all roads to the championship lead through Miami. What pieces have you put together for the physical playoffs?
"Joakim Noah is a great player. Luol Deng is a great player. But you need more than that. You have to put together pieces to your main piece. The players can only do so much. It's up to the organization to make them better. . . . It's frustrating to see my brother play his heart and soul out for the team and them not put anything around him."
He also said the organization had kept alive false hopes that Rose would even be returning to sell tickets.
"Everyone is expecting Derrick to come back," he said. "If Derrick comes back, they're going to sell more tickets. Is the reason for Derrick to come back to win a championship or make money? Right now, I don't believe a championship. Everything in the NBA is financial."
Paxson countered with, "We've had great communication with Derrick, and we've never heard anything like that from Derrick. And that's all that matters.''
"Obviously, Reggie and Derrick are very close, and we share the same concerns about Derrick's health,'' coach Tom Thibodeau said. "So that's not anything new, and Reggie is entitled to his own opinion.
"It's not a big deal. Hey, we all want the same things. We want Derrick's health, and we're trying to pursue a championship, so we share that in common. That's his opinion. He speaks for himself.''
Rose participated in a second five-on-five scrimmage Wednesday and had no setbacks.
The Bulls have deemed that as the last obstacle in the process.
"He's made the next step; he's got to do this for a while,'' Thibodeau said. "There is no timetable. He's making good progress; he's right where he should be. When he's ready to go, he'll go.''
Rose said last week that the last hurdle was dunking off stride with his old explosion. Well, that explosion looked close to being back as he dunked the ball with ease near the end of his pregame workout.

Why don't we examine this a bit:
We have to understand what she means by "modernise". She means have women take on male roles and thus find power. But, is this a good thing? Why are male roles such a model that humanity should follow? Shouldn't we rather look at the prototype of all of humanity - Mary - and see that we should be receptive to God's gifts rather than trying to aggressively grasp at them?THE Catholic Church is losing congregations by alienating women and failing to give them a public role, Cherie Blair said last night.Church leaders must modernise the role of women in order to halt the decline in church attendance, she said.
"Until the traditional churches fully resolve their relationship with the female half of the population, how can they expect Christianity to have a future in the modern world?She does have one thing right - women traditionally pass on the faith to their kids, but is this still the case when women are not a daily part of their kids lives? Does this happen when they are preoccupied with work and success? She thinks so and I disagree. Here is the kicker:
"Traditionally, it was women who passed religion on to their children and who kept the Church going through good times and bad, but when it comes to the public face of Christianity, women are virtually invisible."
Mrs Blair also revealed that every time she did not use contraception, "I seemed to have a baby" in a discussion about the Church's attitude to birth control and abortion.She didn't have a baby when not using contraception because that is how the body is supposed to work. When you take a pill, it messes up the natural function of the body. It robs a woman of the feminine genius that is stamped into her being - the genius of being receptive to the gifts God has given. The genius of being open to life.
She said: "How could I have done all the things I have done if I hadn't used contraception?"
The genius of a "yes" to God, to children, to life. Yes.
Pray for Cherie Blair and other Catholics who don't understand the Church's teachings.

Martin Whitmarsh believes Kimi Raikkonen is determined to move away from Lotus and also revealed McLaren held discussions with the Finn last year.
Although Lotus are determined to keep Raikkonen next year, the 33-year-old is refusing to enter contract negotiations with the squad until they have resolved "certain issues".
The 2007 World Champion, though, remains a key figure in the 2014 driver market as he has also been strongly linked with moves to Red Bull and Ferrari.
While McLaren are unlikely to change their drivers for next season, Whitmarsh has admitted they held talks with Raikkonen in 2012 about a possible return to Woking.
Asked if they had ever considered re-signing the Finn, Whitmarsh told the official F1 website: "Yes, we have. Kimi has always been great and I am a big fan of him. There is a lot of speculation out there at the moment, so let's see what happens.
He added: "I probably shouldn't be, but I'm completely open - last year we had talks with him, but for various reasons it didn't happen. This year we've had no talks - yet."
As for where Raikkonen will end up, Whitmarsh said: "Obviously Kimi is determined to go somewhere else and I sense that he will not succeed in that goal, so let's see how he gets on there."

WholeFoods Magazine SourceBook: The Natural Products Directory
Silver Spring, MD—The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently issued a warning to consumers about the potential dangers of ear candles, and is attempting to enforce regulations on the product's major manufacturers.
Promotions, new hires, retirements and more.
Washington, D.C.—In the wake of the filing of a lawsuit against fish oil manufacturers over alleged polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) contamination in their products, the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN), based here, released a statement defending the practices of these companies.
Port-au-Prince, Haiti—Last month, WholeFoods covered efforts by industry companies to help those affected by the earthquake that hit Port-au-Prince, Haiti in January. Since the time of that publication, several other companies have offered their support:
Some say green is the new black, with reusable bags and water containers topping the list of en vogue eco-friendly merchandise.
Arlington Heights, IL—Founded by John and Susan Carlson in 1965, Carlson Laboratories, still a family-owned and -operated business, is proud to celebrate its 45th anniversary. The Carlson family was aware of the powerful antioxidant benefits associated with vitamin E, especially in the d-alpha-tocopheryl succinate form.
Washington, D.C.—The Natural Products Association (NPA) is extending its standard and seal to include natural home care products.
Washington, D.C.—Last month, WholeFoods reported on proposed legislation sponsored by Arizona Senator John McCain (R-AZ) that would redefine dietary supplements and place new burdens on the dietary supplement industry. In the weeks that followed, several industry companies and associations responded to the Dietary Supplement Safety Act (DSSA, S3.002) in full force.
Rockville, MD—The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) would like to see some extra funding in FY 2011: $146 million from the government and $601 million in industry user fees. This 23% total increase (from $3.28 billion to $4.03 billion in all) will be invested in much-needed initiatives to protect public health. Specifically, FDA hopes to use this money to benefit food safety practice, medical product safety and regulatory science.

The Lynco L900 Shearling Orthotic is designed specifically to provide Maximum foot comfort and protection. These extraordinary, tri-density orthotics features a shearling fiber top cover that provides luxurious cushioning and shock absorption. Make any pair of shoes feel like your favorite slippers.Cupped - cushions and stabilizes your rearfoot, for medium and high arch Neutral - Without metatarsal support for those not suffering from rearfoot discomfort
I bought these to put in my Ugg boots which I definitely feel contributed to the plantar fasciitis I've struggled with for almost one year. It got very cold here recently, so I'm also using these insoles in my gore-tex (Brooks) sneakers. What a great idea, my feet are so much warmer! These insoles are terrific, highly recommended for those dealing with the pain of plantar fasciitis.
I bought these to put into my slippers because I have a lot of problems with my feet. I rarely wear shoes at home only my slippers. My feet are in awe, they are warm and without pain due to the arch support I found in these insoles.
I searched to find more of these. Thank you. I use them as insoles for boots which normally don't have good arch support. The plus is the shearling type warmth. I just bought 3 more pairs.
I have a high instep, high arches, a Morton's neauroma at the ball of my left foot AND I have fibro. I managed to find a pair of winter boots that I could tolerate but they had NO arch support which seemed to aggravate the neauroma.
This orthotic provided wonderful, sturdy arch support and was pure comfort the very moment I tried it on.
I live in TX so I don't have many days to wear my boots but when I do, I skip through the day with my Aetrex Lynco Sheepskin L900 Women's Orthotic.
The product is great and so was my shopping experience with Footwear etc.
Thank you all so very much!

Traditional Japanese Foods — Nuclear Radiation Food SafetyJapanese Ocean Currents
Lotus Nelumbo nucifera is usually cultivated for its root or 'rhizome' but the entire plant is edible. Originating in India, it was brought to China over 600 year ago. It was later introduced to Japan where it is known as 'renkon'. The lotus plant is a water lily with large green waxy leaves and beautiful pink and white flowers that shoot up above the water. Under the petals of the flowers is a pod containing seeds that fall into the water becoming imbedded in the mud of shallow ponds. The root of the lotus grows horizontally in segmented oblong, links. The segmented roots range in length from two to three feet with each segment ranging four to eight inches long and three to four inches thick. Inside are hollow tubes or air passages that run the entire length of each root segment in an attractive, symmetrical pattern. The root segments are brown on the outside and creamy white on the inside. Fresh lotus root has a crispy, crunchy texture and a sweet starchy flavor. Slicing fresh lotus root into thin rounds and sun drying them makes Eden Dried Lotus Root Slices.
Unlike commercial dried lotus root, Eden Dried Lotus Root is naturally and traditionally dried without the use of chemicals or bleaching agents.
Soaked, chopped and simmered Eden Dried Lotus Root Slices can also be used to make lotus root tea. Just strain and drink the hot liquid. The cooked lotus can be saved and added to rice, beans or vegetable dishes. Eden Dried Lotus Root can also be soaked and added to soups, stews and sautéed vegetable dishes for a delicious flavor and crunchy texture. Try in one of our favorite dishes, Vegetable Sauté, in the recipe section.

I won the head last night and after much thought I passed it on to a mage who could use the caster much more then I could the tanky trinket.(10 man version)
I just really was not that excited about what it gave to me. If it would have had even a tiny bit of armor or stam I would have went for it.
Just didnt seem that exciting to me. Now I may crunch the numbers and find out I made a stupid mistake, but the mage was my wife so its still a win situation for me.

RMH Bariatric Surgery Center Receives Accreditation from ACS Bariatric Surgery Center Network
By Debra Thompson @11:51 AM
Views: 8748
Contact: Debra Thompson
Director, RMH Corporate Communications
RMH Bariatric Surgery Center
has been accredited by the Bariatric Surgery Center Network (BSCN) Accreditation Program of the American College of Surgeons (ACS).
This designation means that RMH has met the criteria that ensures it is fully capable of supporting a bariatric surgery care program and that its performance meets the requirements of the ACS BSCN Accreditation Program.
"The Center of Excellence accreditation from the American College of Surgeons is an important indicator of our dedication to providing the best, most comprehensive care in bariatric surgery available today," said general surgeon Robert Garwood of Harrisonburg Surgical Associates, medical director of bariatric surgery at RMH.
The RMH Bariatric Surgery program was launched in December 2009.
The ACS BSCN Accreditation Program was established by the American College of Surgeons in 2005 to extend established quality improvement practices to all disciplines of surgical care. ACS BSCN accreditation affirms that a bariatric surgery center has demonstrated its commitment to providing the highest quality care for its bariatric surgery patients.
Accredited bariatric surgery centers provide not only the hospital resources necessary for optimal care of morbidly obese patients, but also the support and resources necessary to address the entire spectrum of care and needs of bariatric patients, from the pre-hospital phase through the postoperative care and treatment process.
"At RMH we have taken the team approach, using experts in all fields, including nutrition, psychology, exercise and, of course, surgery to provide patients with the full spectrum of care that they require to achieve their weight loss goals," said
Dr. Garwood
. "Patients' interaction with these experts starts the moment they walk through the door and attend an educational seminar and continues as part of their care throughout."
Each hospital undergoes an onsite verification by experienced bariatric surgeons, who review the center's structure, process and quality of data using the current ACS Bariatric Surgery Center Network Accreditation Program Manual as a guide in conducting the survey.
High-quality surgical care requires documentation using reliable measurements of outcomes. Accredited bariatric surgery centers are required to report their bariatric surgery outcomes data either to the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP) or the College's BSCN Database, using a Web-based data entry system.
In the United States, more than 11 million people suffer from severe obesity, and the numbers continue to increase. Obesity increases the risks of morbidity and mortality because of the diseases and conditions that are commonly associated with it. These include type II diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease, among other health risks. Presently, weight-loss surgery provides the only effective, lasting relief from severe obesity. The ACS believes it is important to extend its quality initiatives to accrediting bariatric surgery centers to help the public identify facilities that provide optimal surgical care.
"At RMH we are actually blessed by our relatively small size," Dr. Garwood noted. "We are able to respond immediately to and care for our patients' needs if and when they occur. And, more importantly, we are able to spend the extra time required to ensure that all our patients are successful in achieving safe, steady weight loss."
The American College of Surgeons is a scientific and educational association of surgeons. It was founded in 1913 to raise the standards of surgical education and practice and to improve the care of the surgical patient. Its achievements have placed it at the forefront of American surgery and have made the College an important advocate for all surgical patients. The College has more than 77,000 members. It is the largest organization of surgeons in the world.
For those
considering weight loss surgery
, the RMH Bariatric Surgery program offers a
free informational seminar
. The seminar is available as an online video or as a 2-hour class at RMH. The next class will be held at 6-8 p.m. Jan. 21 in the RMH Hahn Medical Office Building first-floor conference room. To register,
visit RMHBariatricSurgery.com

About the Model AE190SNo other brand evokes more passion, loyalty, and respect than Bach Stradivarius. Exceptional tonal color, balanced response, and superb projection are the hallmarks of designs by Vincent Bach. Carrying on the legacy and true to the vision of the master craftsman, the makers of today's Bach Stradivarius proudly introduce the Artisan Collection. Skillfully handcrafted, Artisan culminates in a unique blend of classic design, elegant styling, and the signature Bach sound. Whether a passionate enthusiast or performing artist, experience The Artisan Collection and discover the Artisan within.
Each Artisan Eb trumpet is made with a one-piece hand-hammered yellow brass bell with a flat rim and special acoustic treatment in both material and manufacturing process resulting in a beautiful Bach Stradivarius sound with a larger core and a broader range of color. The two-piece valve construction with nickel balusters and brass casings harkens back to the construction techniques used by Vincent Bach when making classic Bach trumpets in New York City and Mount Vernon, New York. Monel pistons along with two sets of brass and plastic valve guides offer the player a choice in response and feel. The 3rd valve tone enhancing ring offers yet another choice in response. The 1st slide split ring, enhanced radius ferrules, sculpted bracing, and artistic engraving are all key contributors to the unique response while providing an unparalleled elegance in appearance. Provided with two main tuning slides, the straight and dual slides offer the player a choice is resistance and response. The silver-plate finish of the AE190S provides a controlled brilliance to the overall sound. These features combined with a unique .462" large bore allow the player to have the ease of playing and feel of a C trumpet but with a warm characteristic sound of an Bb trumpet. Whether playing the Haydn concerto or souring over an orchestra, the AE190S Eb trumpet is the perfect choice.
Bach "Stradivarius Artisan" - C trumpet, .462" large bore, 4-13/16" diameter one-piece hand-hammered yellow brass bell with flat rim, special acoustic bell treatment, enhanced radius ferrules, Monel pistons, 2 sets of valve guides - brass/plastic, 1st slide split ring, 3rd slide pin stop, 3rd valve tone enhancing ring, deluxe engraving, silver-plate finish, C190E deluxe case, no mouthpiece.
Born Vincent Shrotenbach in Vienna in 1890, he initially received training on violin, but subsequently switched to trumpet when he heard its majestic sound. Although Vincent also displayed a strong aptitude for science and graduated with an engineering degree, he gave up a promising career to pursue his first love and an uncertain future as a musician. Performing under the stage name, Vincent Bach, he established musical success as he toured throughout Europe.
World War I forced Vincent's move to New York City where he arrived with only $5.00 in his pocket. A letter to the famous conductor Karl Muck procured Vincent an audition and a resulting position with the Boston Symphony. By the following season, he was first trumpet in the Metropolitan Opera House. While on tour in Pittsburgh, Vincent's mouthpiece was ruined by a repairman. Vincent had great difficulty in finding a suitable replacement. While on furloughs, he spent time in the basement of the Selmer Music store remodeling old mouthpieces.
In 1918, with the investment of $300 for a foot-operated lathe, Vincent went into the business of making mouthpieces. The business grew rapidly and in 1924, the first Bach trumpets were produced. Musicians frequently referred to a Bach trumpet as a real 'Stradivarius', thus inspiring the name Bach Stradivarius. Bach later added trombones to his line around 1928.
At the age of 71, Vincent sold his company. Although he received twelve other offers, including some that were higher, Vincent chose to sell to the Selmer Company. In 1964, the tooling and machinery for Bach instruments was moved from Mount Vernon to their current home in Elkhart, Indiana. Today, these instruments continue to embody the highest standards of craftsmanship and adhere to Vincent's original designs and blueprints.
