Adhesive capsulitis is a tightening in the shoulder joint. It decreases the range of motion in the shoulder and causes pain. The shoulder does not have full range of motion even when a therapist tries to move the shoulder. This condition is also known as frozen shoulder . It is caused by tightening of the soft tissue and formation of scar tissue.
During closed manipulation, the doctor moves the arm at the shoulder joint. This is done to break up adhesions and loosen the stiff joint. The goal of the procedure is to improve range-of-motion by breaking up scar tissue.
Reasons for Procedure
Your doctor may recommend closed manipulation if other methods of relief have failed. This procedure can relieve pain and stiffness for some patients. In others, there is still some pain and swelling in the shoulder joint. If the closed manipulation is not successful, you may need arthroscopic surgery .
Possible Complications
Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have a shoulder manipulation, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
- Pain
- Nerve injury
- Damage to soft tissue
- Instability or stiffness in joint
- Fracture
- Reaction to anesthesia used
Before your procedure, talk to your doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your risk of complications such as:
- Smoking
- Drinking
- Chronic disease such as diabetes or obesity
- Previous shoulder surgery
Prior shoulder surgery may also increase the risk of complications.
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Your doctor may do the following:
- Physical exam
- Blood and urine tests
- X-ray—to look for any damage to the shoulder bones
- MRI scan—to look for damage to the shoulder structures
Leading up to the procedure:
- Arrange for a ride to and from the hospital. Also arrange for help at home after the procedure.
- The night before, eat a light meal. Do not eat or drink anything after midnight.
Your doctor may choose either:
- General anesthesia —You will be asleep during the surgery.
- Local anesthesia (less common)—The shoulder area will be numbed.
Description of the Procedure
The doctor will twist and move your shoulder upward and outward. The actions will break up scar tissue to improve range of motion.
Immediately After Procedure
If you had general anesthesia, the nurses will monitor you in the recovery room.
How Long Will It Take?
45-60 minutes
How Much Will It Hurt?
You will feel no pain during the procedure. You will have soreness after the procedure. The doctor will give you pain medicine.
Average Hospital Stay
Once you recover from the anesthesia, you will be able to go home.
Post-procedure Care
During your stay, the hospital staff will take steps to reduce your chance of infection such as:
- Washing their hands
- Wearing gloves or masks
- Keeping your incisions covered
There are also steps you can take to reduce your chances of infection such as:
- Washing your hands often and reminding visitors and healthcare providers to do the same
- Reminding your healthcare providers to wear gloves or masks
- Not allowing others to touch your incisions
You will have pain and swelling for 1-2 weeks after the surgery. Your doctor may instruct you to begin physical therapy.
Call Your Doctor
After you leave the hospital, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Cough, trouble breathing, or chest pain
- Severe nausea or vomiting
- Pain becomes worse or swelling increases
- Tingling or numbness that will not go away, especially in arms and hands

He used the perfect murder weapon, a drug that breaks down into compounds common in the human body, but that can be fatal when skillfully administered. But a lie sowed the seeds of suspicion that eventually brought him to justice.
After a whirlwind courtship and a Las Vegas wedding, the marriage of David Davis and Shannon Mohr came to a tragic end when she died, apparently by accident. But Davis' comment that Shannon had no life insurance policy contradicted something she had said earlier, and her suspicious mother convinced the sheriff's department to exhume the body and perform an autopsy.
AMERICAN JUSTICE® recounts how Davis was living in Florida when he got word of his indictment for murder, then follows the fugitive as he leads the authorities on a nine-year manhunt. Ultimately, a tip called in after an episode of Unsolved Mysteries led authorities to Pago Pago, where Davis was working as a bush pilot.
In THE PERFECT MURDER, investigators reveal how they assembled the evidence that led to Davis' arrest and conviction and those close to the case share their feelings on the long quest for justice.

BMW 3 Series loses more of its camo
by Zach Bowman (RSS feed) on May 3rd, 2011 at 3:00PM
BMW 3 Series spy shots – Click above for high-res image gallery The next-generation BMW 3 Series has been out stretching its legs before its official debut, and our tactical team of spy photographers was quick to snap a few photos before the vehicle returned to the automaker's lair. These photos give us a more complete look at the new 3er for the first time as its shed more of the psychedelic-swirl camouflage than in any of its previous outings. We can clearly make out the rear fascia in its entirety and we've been given a good glimpse of the vehicle's LED tail lamps as well. Those... Read More

Relight garden fires for great fall color with sedums.
The common name for these beautiful plants is "Stonecrop" but it's not very common these days. In fact, most people now call the sedums "Sedum," and it's all due to one spectacular plant---Sedum "Autumn Joy," one of the most popular perennials of all time, with pinkish bloom. It's a must for late summer color.
Sedums are "succulents," which means they have thick leaves that store moisture, which tells you they do well in full sun and arid, rocky soil. Best of all, they are available now in a host of colors, from the taller ones, like "Autumn Joy" to the tiny closely-related ground covers called "Hens and Chicks" that you probably remember from your grandmother's garden.
Sedum Purple EmperorSedum Purple Emperor has dusty pink flowers that turn to bronze over mounds of rich, purple-black leaves. (Sedum)

Diana Thorneycroft
Canadian, b. 1956
Snare, 1994
silver print on paper, 7/10
91.7 x 73.9 cm Image: 71.1 x 61 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Gift of Michael Boss
Winnipeg artist Diana Thorneycroft has been touted as one of the most provocative image-makers in Canada. Her work from the 1990s is characterized by elaborate dreamlike settings, where her body is entangled in various masks, braces, and pseudo appendages. Produced through long exposures and using a hand-held flashlight as the only source of light, this series, as represented by Untitled (Snare), investigated the body as a site of experiences ranging from sexual ecstasy to physical torture. As her work on this series evolved it became very performance-like and exposed taboos around sexuality, gender, and identity. Akin to hallucinations and dreaming, this entire series shows a desire to uncover or understand the dark underbelly of the human psyche.

More Red Orbs for good combos for Devil May Cry 2Home / Playstation 2 /
This page contains Devil May Cry 2 Hints for Playstation 2 called "More Red Orbs for good combos" and has been posted or updated on Feb 9, 2009 by Espeon2. Let us know what you think of this Hint by thumbs voting.

- ESRB: Mature
More Red Orbs for good combos
You will gain a lot more Red Orbs if you kill enemies while you have the "Showtime!!!" combo rating. This is especially useful in the Bloody Palace. Strike enemies with your sword to build up your combo, dodge their attacks so you do not lose it all, and you will get the Showtime!!! rating easily. Also, if the enemy is a fair distance away from you as you are trying to build up your combo (and you do not think you will reach it before the combo fades), shoot it with your pistols. It will "refresh" the timer on the rating and keep your current rating until you reach the enemy. It is recommended that you fight Miseras to get Orbs, since a lot of them spawn in one level and they are easy to kill.

I feel like there is some revisionist history going on in here.
Granger 2011/12 was an above average defender at SF when he put forth the effort. He showed some ability to force turnovers. A big improvement over previous years.
Paul, however, was better at guarding anyone except the stronger SF's like LeBron. That's why Danny was on LeBron. If Paul were stronger, he would have been all over LeBron...and Hill would have been matched up on Wade.
But Hibbert was the only reason we competed guys. I'm not really talking about the Miami series as I am in general. The perimeter D is important, I know. But when there is a completely open lane to the rack, you have a huge problem. We could have Dahntay filling in for Granger on D and you wouldn't lose much. But when you replace Hibbert with anyone else on that team, you got torched in the paint and our wing defenders became exposed. IOW, Hibbert makes all the other guys better defenders.
It isn't even close. Hibbert may not be a gazelle who can shut down the PnR, but he is absolutely crucial to the Pacer's defense.
Yeah, Hibbert has his flaws, but his mere presence changes the way that teams approach facing us in a major way, he's our most important player, and the one guy other than George who has the potential to take another step and become a true "star" player, and elevate the pacers to elite status. He's probably our most important player on both offense and defense.
The closest thing I can see is some people arguing pre-draft that Danny would be pierceesque, and after his 25.8-5-3 season, when it actually look possible he could settle into that level, which wasn't really, at the time that ridiculous. You'll find very few people that will claim Danny reached pierces level, at this time.
"But according to some people" doesn't work as an argument typifying the fanbase when said people are so few and far between.
From JO---> JOB---->Granger.
I predict Roy is next.
People talk about how quiet he [McKey] is, but hes really been helpful. He gives a lot of insight to players in how to guard certain teams and what their weaknesses are. The whole team listens to him, and it makes my job a lot easier. Having players like him is what pro basketball is all about for me. Larry Brown
Unless Danny kills somebody or punch a baby in the face on live tv I don't think anybody would hate him as much as people hated the clown of JOB, comparing the clowns hate to Danny's criticism it's going over board in my opinion.
No not as much, but he should be getting to the line much more than he is. I can't count the number of times I've watched DG pull up in transition and shoot a jumper when he should be taking the ball to the basket.
witters: @imbtyler, @postgameonline
Is there any realistic straight swap for DG though.

Latest news
The Groovy development team is proud to announce the final release of Groovy 2.3.0!
Groovy 2.3 is the new major release of Groovy, featuring official support for running Groovy on JDK 8, traits, new and improved AST transformations like @TailRecursive, @Builder and @Sortable, a new NIO2 module with Path support, lightening fast JSON parsing and building, closure parameter type inference, a new markup template engine, Groovysh and GroovyConsole ease of use improvements, a new GroovyAssert test utility, more @BaseScript class capabilities, and more.
Please read the Groovy 2.3.0 release notes for further details on all these exciting new features!
You can download Groovy at the usual location.
JIRA will give you the detailed change log for this release.
Groovy wouldn't be what it is without your support, your bug reports and feature requests, your contributions and pull requests, so big thanks to all those who contributed to this release in a way or another, including the usual suspects of the core team (Jochen, Paul, Cédric and myself), but also André, Andres, Tim, Pascal, Johanes, Paolo, Thibault, Rick and Andrey, Jim (base script class), Damien, Kenneth and several others I've forgotten to mention!
Hi all,
The Groovy team is very pleased to announce the first beta of the Groovy 2.3 release!
Groovy 2.3.0-beta-1 is actually already a feature-complete beta, so the release cycle towards the final version will be very short. Furthermore, Grails 2.4 is looking forward to integrating it rapidly as well for its upcoming major release too! So you can expect a general availability version of Groovy in the coming weeks, as we'll move directly in "release candidate" mode after this beta. But your feedback, as usual, will be very important for trying out this beta in your respective projects, to tell us about any problem you might encounter.
In this email, below, I'll give you a few pointers regarding the scope of the release, but we'll be fleshing out a more detailed release notes document in the coming days and weeks with more information.
Warning: this is a lengthy email, but you'll get to see all the new stuff and improvements the Groovy team and contributors have been working on!
The key highlights of Groovy 2.3 are:
Official support for running Groovy on JDK 8
This is the first version of Groovy to be officially compatible with JDK 8.
JDK 8 and its interface default methods introduced some incompatibilities with a few methods of the Groovy Development Kit, so we had to adapt to the situation, introducing minor breaking changes for the affected methods and their outcome.
Note that we're not planning to backport the changes to older versions of Groovy, so if you want to run Groovy on JDK 8, you'll have to upgrade to the shiniest version of Groovy!
A major highlight for Groovy 2.3 is the introduction of the concept of traits.
Traits are reusable components of behavior that you can make your class implement, and are an additional Object-Oriented concept alongside classes and interfaces.
Groovy traits are stateful (unlike Java 8 interface default methods).
They allow the composition of behavior without going into the "diamond inheritance" problem allowing you to decide which behavior prevails upon conflict.
Traits support inheritance, thus a trait can extend another trait or implement an interface.
Traits are compatible with static type checking and compilation, as well as our usual dynamic behavior. Trait mixed-in methods are actually "real" methods (ie. visible from Java as well) and not just dynamic.
Traits can also be implemented at runtime with "as" or with "withTraits" if you just want to add behavior of a trait to an object you're instantiating.
You can find more information on traits in the exhaustive trait documentation.
New and updated AST transformations
@TailRecursive on methods adds tail recursion to methods which are recursive and call themselves at the last operation of the method body, which helps blowing up the stack with the recursive calls (GROOVY-6570).
@Sortable on classes implement comparison methods for you, according to the declaration order of your properties (GROOVY-6649).
@Delegate supports includes and excludes attributes so as to let you decide if certain methods should be included or excluded from the delegation (GROOVY-6329).
New NIO module for Java 7+
On JDK 7 and beyond, you can benefit from the same methods as the ones of File, URLs, the various Stream classes, etc, but for the new NIO2 methods, like Path.
See GROOVY-6377 and the pull request for some further hints of the new methods.
Various minor performance improvements across the board, for static compilation, the "invoke dynamic" backend, as well as "normal" dynamic Groovy
Drastic JSON parsing and serialization performance improvements
The Rick / Andrey duo spent a fair amount of time optimizing our JSON support, making Groovy 2.3's JSON support usually faster than all the JSON libraries available in the Java ecosystem.
With JsonSlurper, you'll be able to set different parser types depending on the kind of input you wish to parse, particularly if you know the size of the payload you expect to parse, or whether you want a more tolerant parser which accepts elements like comments which are not normally supported by the JSON specification (GROOVY-6546).
On the output front, with JsonBuilder and StreamingJsonBuilder, which both use JsonOutput for output generation, the serialization has also been tremendously improved (GROOVY-6554).
Closure type parameter inference
We closed a gap which forced you to type your closure parameters to get correct type inference with static type checking or static compilation enabled. In situations like the following, you would have to explicitly give the type of the parameter, but it's no longer required:
['a','b'].each { it.toUpperCase() }
In the signature of your methods taking closures as arguments, you'll also be able to annotate the closure parameter with @ClosureParams to give additional hints to the type checker to infer the type of the parameters passed to your closure.
You can also find more about this in Cédric's blog post on closure parameter type inference.
New Markup template engine
Groovy now has an additional template engine, in the form of the Markup template engine, which gives you a very fast template engine, based on the familiar Markup builder approach and notation, but also offering formatting options (indentation, escaping), internationalization, includes, as well as proposing type checked templates and models.
More details about the new Markup template engine in the documentation (GROOVY-6596), as well as in Cédric's blog, if you want to learn more about the "behind the scenes" stories!
Further Groovysh enhancements
Along with some slightly reduced startup time, Groovysh has seen new improvements in its code-completion capabilities:
line comment command (GROOVY-6459)
completion for keywords (GROOVY-6399)
completion for properties (GROOVY-6395)
GroovyConsole enhancements
It is now possible to configure the font used by the console, and also to be able to run a selected snippet of code reusing the imports defined in your script making it easier to just run quick snippets of your script.
JUnit 4 GroovyAssert class
The venerable GroovyTestCase (JUnit 3 based approach) has often been used as a base class for your test classes — unless you've been using the Spock testing framework, of course. One of the drawback of this class is that your test classes can't extend your own classes, but must derive from GroovyTestCase to benefit from the additional assertion methods.
Groovy 2.3 introduces the JUnit 4-friendly GroovyAssert, which is a convenient class offering the usual assertion methods of GroovyTestCase, but in the form of static methods that you can static import in your test class.
We have not included the myriads of assertEquals method from GroovyTestCase as they have become useless with Groovy's power assert, but it provides the handy shouldFail*() methods (GROOVY-6588).
ConfigSlurper just supported a single "environments" non-configurational conditional block, but you couldn't let you define your own. With Groovy 2.3 you can also create your own ones too, for instance if you wanted to support "flavors" like OS variants (GROOVY-6383).
In addition, the isSet() / hasSet() combo methods (GROOVY-4639) have been added so you can double check if a given node of your configuration has been defined. Before, whether the node wasn't defined or containing null, you couldn't differentiate either case easily.
@BaseScript class improvements
@BaseScript is a fairly recent addition in Groovy, and it allowed to annotate a variable in your script to instruct the compiler to use a particular base script class for this script. Now we have another notation which is nicer as you can annotate an import or a package (GROOVY-6592) to indicate that base script class:
import groovy.transform.BaseScript
Additionally, base script classes can now use any abstract method for the script body. This means that you can implement the run() method to implement specific behavior like setup and tear down in tests (GROOVY-6585 and GROOVY-6615).
New style for the GroovyDoc documentation of Groovy and the GDK methods
GroovyDoc has been updated with a new fresh and modern skin that will be part of the future visual identity of the Groovy website. Those style updates are also available by default for your own usage of GroovyDoc, making your own documentation nicer on the eye.
You can have a look at the GroovyDoc documentation for Groovy 2.3.0-beta-1.
We also took the opportunity to apply the same stylesheet to our "DocGenerator" tool which is responsible for the generation of the GDK documentation, showing the methods the Groovy library adds on top of the JDK classes.
Please also have a look at the new restyled GDK documentation.
New documentation
We are still working on the brand new documentation for Groovy (in Asciidoc(tor) format), so you can already have a glimpse at what's already covered or not.
We're looking forward for help for fleshing out the various TBD (To Be Done) sections of the documentation, as it's a gigantic taks to re-document each and every aspect of the language and its libraries! So please shout if you want to contribute to the new documentation! All help is warmly welcome!
Dependency upgrades
Gradle 1.10 for building Groovy
ASM 5.0.1 library for generating our bytecode (also needed for our JDK 8 support)
JLine 2.11 and JANSI 1.11 library for Groovysh
Groovy wouldn't be what it is without your support, your bug reports and feature requests, your contributions and pull requests, so big thanks to all those who contributed to this release in a way or another, including the usual suspects of the core team (Jochen, Paul, Cédric and myself), but also André (documentation, GroovyAssert, Groovy Console), Andres (Config slurper, @Sortable with Paul), Tim, Pascal (ConfigSlurper), Johanes (@TailRecursive), Paolo (new NIO module), Thibault (groovysh), Rick and Andrey (for the JSON support), Jim (base script class), Damien (GroovyDoc / GDK styling), Kenneth and several others I've forgotten to mention!
And in honor of this first beta release of Groovy 2.3, Cédric even decided to put his birthday on the same day, so happy birthday Cédric, and great work on this release!
We're looking forward to your feedback running this beta to its pace!
It's important to make this 2.3 release rock solid!
Download Groovy 2.3-beta-1 and have a look at the JIRA release notes for additional details on issues and bug fixes closed.
Keep on groovy'ing!

BALTIMORE (AP) -- A former principal of a public charter high school in Baltimore has pleaded guilty to stealing more than $10,000 from the school's fund for student activities.
Prosecutors say 37-year-old William Howard II pleaded guilty in Baltimore City Circuit Court. A judge placed him on four years of probation, and Howard has returned $10,300 to Coppin Academy. Howard must also perform 150 hours of community service.
Prosecutors say that in 2011 Howard made four unauthorized transfers from the school's student activity bank account into his own bank account. They say he used the money for personal purposes including wedding expenses.
Howard had left Coppin Academy in 2008 and was employed as assistant vice president for academic services at Saint Mary's College of Maryland.

Listening to iPhone Music While Swimming
Get in the Water and in the Groove at the Same Time
It's a great thing that our country is becoming more health conscious. You see this phenomena out on the streets every day with more people jogging and walking to help keep themselves fit.
But, the unfortunate truth is that pounding the pavement can be a little like taking a ride on the Home Depot paint department can shaker, especially over the long haul. That's why lots of people have decided to go jump in a lake...or pool. Swimming is great exercise and it treats your joints with gentleness.
Only one problem remains: how to break the tedium of having your head underwater all the time you're working out. The answer is simple: swim while listening to music. You could hum your favorite tune, except that breathing while doing the freestyle makes it hard to hum.
A far better is idea is a waterproof iPhone case. Team the right LifeProof iPhone case up with the proper set of waterproof earphones and adapter, and it's like having the best seat in the concert hall while you're logging laps in the pool. The time starts to pass much more quickly.
Of course, music isn't the only thing you could listen to when you have your phone snugly protected inside a waterproof iPhone case. You can play your favorite Podcasts or even download audio books. When you get yourself engrossed in the latest John Grisham thriller, you'll probably find that you can put in a dozen or so extra laps without even realizing it. And, there are dozens of training and fitness apps that can track your progress.
Lots of people have stuck with jogging and walking because they need the companionship and entertainment that's provided by their iPhones. They've thought it was impossible to bring that high level of entertainment – or distraction – to their workouts if they decided to hit the pool. Fortunately, a waterproof iPhone case solves that problem. You can be kind to your knees, get your cardio on, strengthen your body and listen to your favorite tunes.
Here's the way it breaks down:
- Running can be very hard on your body
- Swimming is a great workout and gentle on the body
- A waterproof iPhone case lets you listen to your tunes while swimming
- Swimming while listening to music or audios makes the time fly by

Unique Autosports South gets crazy custom-built automotive pool table
by Noah Joseph (RSS feed) on Jul 22nd, 2009 at 7:28PM
We see plenty of automotive-inspired products roll through our tip line, and most of them are pretty subtle: A logo here, a racing stripe there, a touch of carbon fiber or vulcanized rubber.... But "subtle" won't cut it for Unique Autosports, purveyors of blinged-out whips for the rich and famous. So for Unique's Miami showroom, they turned to Hurricane Custom Billiards of St. Petersburg, Florida, to create the one-of-a-kind pool table you see here. The Unique Autosports pool table is built on a chromed steel frame and mounted on four giant shiny rims coated in ultra low-profile rubber,... Read More

Community Prosecution
APA's goal is to provide prosecutors with the requisite skills to strengthen links between the criminal justice system and the community while promoting partnership building and encouraging problem-solving strategies in relation to the U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Assistance's key principles of community prosecution. To accomplish this goal, APA provides on-site technical assistance visits for local prosecutor's offices, conducts webinar trainings, hosts national conferences and maintains a Community Prosecution Listserv. APA is also dedicated to providing current information to prosecutors and their criminal justice partners through quarterly newsletters and other publications focused on community prosecution.
What is Community Prosecution?
Community Prosecution is a philosophy that encourages collaboration between prosecutors, criminal justice partners and the community to create safer neighborhoods and enhance the quality of life of its members. Specifically, the philosophy promotes the key principles of community prosecution: recognizing the role of the community in public safety, engaging in problem solving, establishing and maintaining partnerships and evaluating outcomes of its activities.
What is CPAC?
On January 25, 2010, the Association of Prosecuting Attorneys (APA), in partnership with the U.S. Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Assistance and the Center for Court Innovation, hosted the first meeting of the Community Prosecution Advisory Council (CPAC). This council is comprised of elected district attorneys and city prosecutors who have been identified as national experts and leaders in the area of community prosecution. The purpose of the council is to provide guidance to our nation's prosecutors in their efforts to advance community prosecution. The council discussed issues such as the changing role of the prosecutor in community-based crime prevention efforts and how to provide community members with a voice in the criminal justice process. One goal that emerged from the discussion was the need for prosecutors to implement the key principles of community prosecution throughout their offices.
Community Prosecution Technical Assistance
Join the CP Listserv Blog
APA's Community Prosecution listserv was created to provide a National Technical Assistance Network in the area of community prosecution and problem solving. The Listserv allows you to connect with other prosecutors and professionals in the criminal justice field. The CP Listserv provides a forum and exchange for ideas relating to community prosecution efforts. New subscribers should click here to register or email email@example.com
On-Site Technical Assistance Visits
The Association of Prosecuting Attorneys provides on-site technical assistance visits to prosecutor's offices around the country. APA can assist in developing new community prosecution initiatives or improving current programs by providing hands-on training and development of solutions to operational problems.
For more information on how a technical assistance visit from APA can assist your office or to request an on-site visit, please email email@example.com or download the Technical Assistance Request Form here and submit to Steven Jansen at email@example.com.

Raspberry ketone supplements are designed to help people who want to lose weight. The record shows that this supplement is one of the bestselling weight loss supplements today. The popularity of the supplement has spurred substandard because of the bogus products circulating in the market. Hence, it is a must to do your research well when purchasing raspberry ketone supplement.
All natural ingredients
Raspberry ketone is a natural ingredient; a metabolite compound that is extracted from red raspberries. The extracting is a difficult process and so what many manufacturers do is they use synthetic form of ketone. Remember that it is safer and more effective to use all natural compounds and not the synthetic one. Conduct a thorough research and check the ingredients to make sure the supplement you have purchased does not contain synthetic ingredient.
Where is the product made?
You should check where the product is made. You need to remember that every country has its own set of rules and laws that regulate the manufacturing of health supplements. Some have strict laws while others can be very lax. The United States has a strict regulation when it comes to manufacturing health supplements and so it is best to purchase raspberry ketone supplements manufactured in the United States. Aside from that, you should look for GMP sign or Good Manufacturing Practices. It simply means that the product has undergone thorough testing to ensure safety and quality.
Check the value of the supplement
You should take a look at the overall value of the supplement. Does the supplement helpful in facilitating weight loss? Does it help you lose weight the natural way? Aside from weight loss, does it offer other health and wellness benefits? The best raspberry ketone supplement should facilitate the metabolic activity of the body. This supplement facilitates the release of adiponectin; hormone in the body that facilitates metabolism of the body. There are supplements with added natural ingredients to further deliver health and wellness benefits other than weight loss.
It is very important to choose the best raspberry ketone supplement because only the best one has the ability to help you lose weight. Conduct a thorough research so that you will not be able to purchase substandard products. When making your purchase, you need to keep in mind that it is not only your money that is at stake, but most importantly your health. You can't afford to compromise your health just because you didn't conduct a thorough research.

Saying "Just run LFR until 470" is like saying "Just win the lottery for your retirement".or alternatively
1. Run 5 mans to 463 or better
2. Run MSV LFR or otherwise until 470
3. Run HoF/Terrace until 480 geared
But if you use LFR, you can be in the situation I just had. (Edit: And still have, I guess)
Went six weeks with no drops in LFR.
Had 6 elder tokens this week. Spent all of them trying to get the weapon. 6 tokens plus first kill drop = essentially 7 more "weeks" and no weapon. 13 weeks without the drop I need.
RNG is RNG. It could just have easily been a case of getting four piece and a weapon in my first week. I get that. However, LFR is a poor catch up mechanic with a weekly lockout.
"he doens't need healing, he doesn't need healing, he doesn't nee-WHAOSHIT!wtf was that man!". Please stop leaning on TDR. -Teng

Or, you could...you know...join a pug in trade chat and go clear mogushan normal and get level 489 items. I'm seeing HoF and ToES PuGs going too (and they clear Terrace too!). I've done "elite" protectors in a PuG, and that drops 503 item level gear.
You mean the pugs that want you to be in 480-485 gear minimum to get into MSV? C'mon, don't pretend like you don't know that anyone in 450-463 blues will be laughed out of pugs.Or, you could...you know...join a pug in trade chat and go clear mogushan normal and get level 489 items. I'm seeing HoF and ToES PuGs going too (and they clear Terrace too!).
PuGs usually won't take me with a 475 gear level and only cleared 4/6. And once 5.2 is out, the trend in the past is that nobody will run it anymore...at least not without an even further demand on overgearing it for a "quick clear".

Harsh Words and Steel: A Protection Warrior Guide
MoP RPS Calculator
Hunters, Just get a Sporebat, most LFRs will be missing that buff.
Wonder what the item level requirement will be for T15 LFR. With no 5-mans to gear up in.Except they;re upping the drop rates when t15 comes out so expect 30% more loot or something.
And 130% of zero is still zero.
Why, exactly, was it so awful for people to just gear up in 5-mans?
Required item level for T15 LFR is 480.
480 seems like a light year away, ugh. ><
Of course, while you're grinding the rep, you'll run LFR as much as you can, but if you just dinged 90, you can only run LFR MSV. Decking yourself out in 463 gear is easy enough, and of course you can have your chest/gloves crafted, but that's about it.
You'll run LFR (the ones you can do) every week, but that doesn't guarantee you get gear, especially since at the start you can only run MSV. I've had non-raiding guildies who took months before they could join HoF/ToES LFR, due to the ilvl requirement.
You'll kill the outdoor world bosses (all four of them) every week, but that doesn't guarantee you get gear.
Of course you join any MSV/HoF/ToES pug you can get in to, which won't be many, if at all. Should they really take you over someone who has at least a few items from Tier 15 LFR? This likely will not give you any gear because you won't be getting into them.
So while hoping for the best to get gear from LFR/World bosses, and farming the 5.2 dailies to spend your valor on the 5.2 items, you're still forced to gring the 5.0 and 5.1 dailies asap, and the moment you hit Honored/Revered, buy all the items that are still an upgrade to you, grinding more JP if need be. If you don't, it can easily take months before you can get into Tier 15 LFR.
And sure, the Tier 14 LFR droprate is increased, but that's far from a guarantee!
I've personally flipped a coin and gotten the same side more than 10 times in a row. Let's be honest, some people are still going to get screwed by a weekly lockout.
Even 50% can have a horrible run. When your only choices are RNG and a huge grind...I can understand wanting another option.
"he doens't need healing, he doesn't need healing, he doesn't nee-WHAOSHIT!wtf was that man!". Please stop leaning on TDR. -Teng
The big problem about LFR as a catch up meganism is that you run them every tuesday/wednesday, and then are done for the week, waiting for the next tuesday/wednesday so you can run them one more time. If the catch up meganism only allows you to work on catching up 2 hours per week, it's going to leave you with nothing else to do.
Unless you include the dailies and assume the items go for JP, at which time you jump from "Having nothing to do after the first two hours per week" to "must grind all dailies of every faction every day so I can buy the items for the slots that won't drop for me during the coming weeks of LFR".
It would be nice if there was an option with a little less daily investment that would provide a guaranteed way to gear yourself up. Well, perhaps there is. Arena to cap conquest every week and decking yourself out in PvP gear probably works.
Removing/reducing the lockout is the better way. That way you can mitigate the effect of RNG by putting in extra effort in the event you get unlucky. I don't really buy that you should have to spend time in old content to get to real raiding (because thats a really slippery slope and where the 'old content' that someone 'should' do to rejoin raiding is entirely subjective) but even if one accepts that it doesn't require also being gated in progression by RL time in addition to the time spent grinding the content.
Removing the lockout just puts you in the same position that people are complaining about with the jp option, instead of having to do massive investment to get the jp and rep you need to buy gear youl just have the same massive investment to grind lfr again and again and again. I wouldnt be opposed to a shorter lockout though, ive often been in the position where ive ran my raid finder for the week so if were not doing real raids at that time then my only real option is just to do some dailies. But only for the lower end raid finder, the current tier should remain at its 1 week lockout i think.
I dont feel that the slope is that slippery, im talking about people doing the stuff thats still available in raid finder, which is more or less what blizzard intends to be the active content anyway.
And just to be clear i didnt mean that people 'should' do the content as some sort of dues paying or any sort of feeling that if i worked for it so should they or anything like that. I mean that they should GET, to do the old content, if they hit 90 and can shoot to the edge of progression in a week without hitting any of the older stuff then they will, thats how most players work. But in doing so they lose out on the experience of all the content that was in the expansion prior to the patch that they happen to ding 90 in which is a shame. Especially in a tier like this one which has so many bosses (and fun ones) that their missing out on. All im saying is that if you use cata as an example, someone who hit 85 during dragonsoul probably would have in the long term appreciated a reason to go through some of the other raids a bit before starting their dragon soul progression. There were some neat and fun bosses in the earlier tiers of cata, and if theyd had a legitimate reason to go fight them i think they probably would have, and would have ultimately had more fun than they did just doing the one tier right out of heroics.
dk2300, I don't disagree with that. The part Blizzard has to be careful about though is locking some people into that content for any reason. For instance, if they are relying on ONLY that content to move to other content, you risk stratifying your player-base.
For instance. If the only real way for me to acquire the gear to get into DS is through FL raid finder, then I can get stuck there due to RNG. If I am, then I am probably not alone. However, you have a rapidly decreasing pool of players who will even run that content. This makes it progressively harder for me to get the gear even on top of the bad RNG I've had.
Even worse, what if I'm stuck in T11 while current content is DS? How long are my queues going to be for lfr? If I have bad RNG, I could get seriously stuck. There will periodically be alts and whatnot coming through so that I get some queues, but everyone with below average RNG on loot runs the chance of having a very diluted pool of players even running the content. On smaller servers/battlegroups, this could be terrible.
Judging by recent observation of the Blizzard method, they would then add incentives for more current players to come back to the content. That has two problems...one, they have probably run that content to death and don't want to be there. We all see the problems with that. Two, if they are making current players come back to the content, why are you getting catch-up toons stuck there in the first place if they are coming back to the content regardless of their gear?
"he doens't need healing, he doesn't need healing, he doesn't nee-WHAOSHIT!wtf was that man!". Please stop leaning on TDR. -Teng
I agree that its something they have to be careful about, but thats why there is always 2 systems, raid finder, and valor. Since valor is guaranteed and you earn valor while in raid finder, then its more or less impossible to get permanently "stuck". Especially since their lowering the cost of that tier of valor items when the patch hits as well as uping the drop rate of the raid finder loot.
There is ofcourse a decline in how easy it is to form groups as the expansion progresses, but much like heroics now while theres no reason for most endgame players to run them, you can still get a group in a reasonable amount of time most of the time. Alts will run them, enchanters lookin to DE stuff will run them, people on the legendary quest chain will run them (alot), and people may even run them just to get the potions or whatever it turns out to be that they keep promising to add to the gold bag you curently get. People are also having a hard time gearing offspecs at the moment so you may even get people who are curent tier raiding mainspec but still tryin to catchup their offspecs runing through previous tier raidfinder in their alt spec which they didnt feel compfortable doing when it was the current tear, i know i fit in this category.
But remember that for dungeons, you only need 4 people looking for any dungeon. For raid finder you need 24 people looking for the same LFR.
Sure, some people will be looking for specific dungeons, but they'll be queued with people looking for random dungeons, so even they add some numbers to the pool.
I can only use a few OS items from 2 LFR instances. I run those 2 LFRs and then run 1 dungeon and 1 scenario per day to my valor cap. I don't see a point of running more LFRs.

Former New York City Mayor Ed Koch is remembered as a lawmaker who embodied New York and helped turn the city around during a bleak period. Koch died Friday at age 88. YNN's Josh Robin reports.
NEW YORK CITY -- He left to the strains of New York, New York and to the adulation of those he served.
"Ed Koch would have loved this crowd," said Diane Coffey, Koch's chief of staff.
The funeral was a who's-who of New York politicos, even a former president. They packed the pews at Temple Emanu-el to bid farewell, and say thanks, to a leader Mayor Bloomberg deemed the city's Moses.
"Just with a little less hair. He led us out of darkness, and he gave us hope. And while he may not have parted the Red Sea, he did break a subway strike by standing on a bridge and shouting words of encouragement," said Mayor Bloomberg.
Others recalled with laughs vintage Koch stories, usually about how this veteran politician seemed genetically wired to saying the most impolitic things.
"I was marching with him in a human rights parade. And marching with me was the counsel to the Chinese government. Out of the blue, Ed turned to him and said, 'If you would like to defect, I would help you,'" said John Locicero, Koch's deputy mayor.
Koch was known as the first mayor with his own foreign policy, and never was one to keep his opinions to himself.
"We were told not to speak long - this is not my speech. These are the letters - just the letters - that I got from Ed Koch when I was president," said Bill Clinton.
It wasn't just Mayor Ed Koch who was mourned today. It was also Uncle Ed - who doted on his relatives.
"Not long ago, we attended Cirque du Soleil, where I was introduced to the Clintons. While you, President Clinton, probably don't remember as vividly as I do, I distinctly recall my uncle boasting of my achievements to you, seemingly forgetting that he was speaking to a world leader. The irony was not lost on me, but the sentiment was appreciated," said Noah Thaler, Ed Koch's grand-nephew.
Outside, Koch's casket passed his three successors. An honor guard crisply saluted the mayor, police helicopters cutting the frigid February air.

Sumptuous Art Deco Emerald Diamond Ring
There will be absolutely no worries about being au courant with the color of the year with this Art Deco ring of 14k yellow gold. The word magnificent pales when used to describe the exceptionally fine color and clarity of this emerald of an estimated 1.2 carats.
A vibrant very deep green with hints of a teal blue undertone characterize the gem. The photographs do not do the emerald justice as they show a lighter tone than when viewed in person. The photo of the hand has the closest representation of the actual color.
Setting off the empyreal emerald are two (2) old European cut diamonds – one of about .80 carats; the other is approximately .75 carats – both have I-J color and VS clarity. The yellow gold setting is a work of architectural design and simplicity with open basket-like mounts with prongs to secure each gem. The flat edged shank, is sleek but wide enough for comfort and extended wear.
Date: Circa 1920.
Measurements: 5/16 of an inch (0.9 cm) in length north to south on the hand and rises 5/16 of an inch (0.9 cm) in height off the finger. Weight of 4.1 grams (2.6 dwt).
Ring Size: US 5-1/2 (UK K-1/2; Euro or Int. Circum. 50.6 mm; Int. Dia. 16.1 mm; Japan 10) and easily can be sized to fit most. Ring sizing information.
Hallmarks: 14k.
Condition: Excellent; one minute natural indention that breaks surface of emerald near one prong only visible with magnification.
Origin: American.
Note: Stones were not removed to preserve the integrity of the setting. All weights are approximated by measurement and formula and may vary from actual weights. Grading may vary if stones are removed.

"I was not just South Asian. I was also queer and undocumented. SAN saw all of me."
Atul P.
Atul faced verbal insults and physical assaults. His parents rejected him for sullying the family name. He had been persecuted in the past; he feared he could be sent back to Kenya. Atul was an undocumented LGBTQ young adult, seeking asylum in the United States.
SAN successfully guided him through the long, complex and often intimidating asylum process. He received counseling, helping him cope with the abandonment by his family. SAN provided him with hope and a new beginning.

Rowenta Eco Intelligence Steam Iron
Chances are, you havent thought much about your irons soleplate, but Rowentas Eco Intelligence steam iron ($105, amazon.com) could change all that. This powerhouses plate was designed with energy savings in mind — any steam thats released is held in its grooves for maximum wrinkle-busting power.
