.Elton John
At Princess Diana's funeral, Elton John sang a song in the royal's honor (Candle in the wind), which sold well over 33 million copies. He has won numerous awards over the years; including 5 Grammys and 11 Ivor Novello Awards.
Aside from his singing achievements, John has helped raise millions of dollars for famine relief and the fight against AIDS.
Elton John is openly gay and has a civil partnership with David Furnish. That is why it came as a shock to everyone when was scheduled to sing a duet with a renowned homophobe…

Drink giant Coca-Cola is taking to the airwaves for the first time to address the obesity problem.
The world's number one beverage maker launched two tv ads today looking at the link between high calorie sugared drinks and obesity.
The campaign will kick off a variety of moves that help address obesity in the year ahead, such as providing more diet options at soda fountains, Coca-Cola says.
In the ad, a narrator notes that obesity is an issue that "concerns all of us" but that people can make a difference when they "come together."
All of the growth in Cokes' soda business over the past 15 years has come from low- and no-calorie drinks, such as coke zero.
Diet sodas now account for nearly a third of the company's sales in the U.S. and Canada.

This is my first post on blurty, and I've never used the client before. So what do I say and how do use this client (outside of the obvious use of the Help option which I don't think anyone ever uses do they)?
I work as a Software Engineer, which is perhaps the most grueling and laborious job in the world that does not involve actually getting off my ass and doing something. But most of the time I like it. The greatest thing about working where I do is that I can work from home a lot, which leads me to where I am now and how I ended up blogging an entry on Blurty. Obviously, I do the bare minimum level of work when I'm at home.
I actually just walked down the street to the coffee shop (Nina's) to get a Macchiato. The macchiato is the best coffee drink available at most coffee shops, if they make it correctly. There are several reasons the macchiato reigns: 1) They're normally less than $2. 2) They're small, and not full of sugar. 3) They're strong drinks, and deliver the goods in full flavor.
Now, at some coffee shops they confuse a macchiato with a capuccino. I personally don't like that much milk with my coffee.
So anyway, I just thawed out some edamame for a snack, removed a few entries from database table called "LOC" for this stupid app I'm developing, and now I'm going to finish this entry. But before I do, is anyone other than me completely baffled by DBA's choice of naming database tables? I mean we have LOC, CPI, CPI_ALT_ID, and shit like that without any documentation to back it up. I don't get it, just call it fucking LOCATION, CLIENT_PATIENT_ID, and etc. We've made it through the days when disk space was a factor in naming conventions.

text: Prithviraj, a software architect by profession who lives in Malaysia, is the millionaire nephew of Radharavi. Having lost his parents early in life, Prithvi runs the business of his uncle with impressive results. He stumbles upon the psychiatry student Sandhya, in the most cinematic manner, and as script would have it, falls for her that very instant. Sandhya is the daughter of Commissioner of Police Satyaraj and husband of Radhika in Chennai. As the fairy tale progresses, Sandhya is being summoned by her parents for their silver jubilee wedding anniversary back home. Notwithstanding the fact that he has a flourishing business to attend to and much to the wrath of his uncle - who arranges for his wedding with his business partners daughter - Prithvi takes the next flight to Chennai to accompany Sandhya. He is subjected to a warm welcome by Radhika and cold shoulder by Satyaraj. To make matters worse, Radharavis vicious character assassination in the name of a complaint he sends to the Police Commissioners office doesnt help Prithvi in the task of gaining enough confidence among his girlfriends parents. Will Prithvi ever win his love back, now that his chance of impressing Sandhyas parents are doomed, forms the rest of the story. Kannaamoochi Enadaa thus sledges its way towards a rather predictable ending adding yet another array of characters during the process. This is a remake of the English film Guess Who.

Surgeons can repair a complete rectal prolapse. They make a cut through the abdomen or the perineum.
If the surrounding tissue is no longer holding part of large intestine in the correct position, your surgeon may have to remove part of the intestine and then reattach it to the rectum.

Rate Dr. Henry Chung
Dr. Henry Chung's Ratings
I have no idea about Dr. Chung's skills as a doctor, but I do know his skills as a bully. He made a fat joke at my expense on the hospital ward in front off the staff, nurses and other doctors. I have crohn's and After a consult with one of the GI doctors food was delivered to rooms and since I have been unable to eat for two weeks I left. As I was leaving the room, next next to the nursing station the GI doc was there amongst his peers and nursing staff. I said, "I cannot be around food being delivered I am going for a walk" , His reply was "Good thing is it looks like you have not missed many meals" He fat shamed me and used me his patient as a joke in front of at least 15 peers. I am mortified, ashamed, insulted, hurt and now cannot trust the medical team here at RCH with my care I feel trapped

I saw Dr. Chung about 5 years ago for an Endoscopy and found him to be polite and professional. Unfortunately I can not say the same about his secretary / booking clerk. On the 11th of March of this year (2014) I was referred by my family doctor for another Endoscopy as I began experiencing rather severe upper abdominal pain. I have since called Dr. Chung's office several times to inquire about an appointment and each time have received a rather rude and uncaring response from his "Booking Clerk". I am told it will probably be "Sometime next year", "Maybe march or April", "We have hundreds of referrals", "We will get back to you". Tomorrow is the 1st of June and I am still awaiting a response. I recently had to visit Eagle Ridge hospital emergency due to evidence of internal bleeding and continued severe pain. I brought this to the attention of Dr, Chung"s clerk, but again received a similar response to that noted above.

Very friendly, very patient, spends enough time to understand the problem.I had a problem which tremendously limited my abilities as a graduate student. For two years I visited several general practitioners and three specialists, and went through CT scans, MRI, gastro-scopy and blood tests. None of these helped. Last May I visited Dr Chung. The first thing he told me is that I had all possible tests a human can ever have. Then he started asking me questions about my condition. This guy was able to extract every single detail about my ailment; he even got a vivid picture of my childhood ailments that could be related. At the end he prescribed a simple solution to my problem. Now I am in my best condition since 15 years. While others were using every possible piece of medical technology to diagnose my condition, but failed miserably, this friendly face was able to do it by giving himself the chance to think carefully about the problem, and solve it by simple techniques.

Dr Chung was very helpful and extremely patient during our appointment, I brought my 2 and a half year old daughter and he somehow managed to keep her calm and entertained while still giving me his full, undecided attention and answering all questions I had. He was well worth the wait and I highly recommend him to anyone needing a gastro!

Dr Chung is a very personable young man but I would have preferred less bed side manner and more help. I have been healthy all my life but ill for 2 years now and endured a lot of pain and many uncomfortable tests. I have had difficulty swallowing, bloating and severe acid reflux, shortness of breath. I was referred to Dr. Chung and waited almost 6 months, finally going into RC hospital for a 'consultation' and stomach scope. No consultation was done. All Dr. Chung did was introduce himself. When I woke up he had left a note to make an appt with him in TEN weeks! My GP never received a report, just a copy of the pathology report sent from the hospital. When I saw him in ten weeks he had no written report and had to look at my scope pictures on the computer. He told me to take nexium (a drug I have been taking) and come back in 6 months! I think Dr Chung is charging for consultations he is not doing and then making people wait 10 weeks so he can charge for another consultation.

Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Kevin Frandsen just wanted to get on base. He got more than he expected to save the Phillies from a crushing loss.
Frandsen hit a pinch-hit homer leading off the ninth to lift Philadelphia to an 8-7 victory over New York on Saturday that wiped out the Mets' comeback from a six-run deficit.
The Mets had scored two runs in the top of the ninth off closer Jonathon Papelbon (2-0).
"You've got one chance," Frandsen said. "I'm trying to get on base. I'm not a home-run hitter. Fortunately I got a pitch to hit. You get a pitch to hit, hopefully you do something with it and I did. It was awesome."
Ryan Howard homered twice and drove in four runs and Michael Young also homered for Philadelphia, which led 7-1 through six innings.
Jordany Valdespin homered off Papelbon with one out in the ninth to pull New York within 7-6. After David Wright reached on an error, Papelbon got Marlon Byrd to fly out for the second out.
With Wright running and shortstop Jimmy Rollins moving toward second base to cover, Daniel Murphy singled to left-center. Center fielder Ben Revere bobbled the ball and Wright scored all the way from first to tie the game at 7.
"Great jump and great baserunning," Mets manager Terry Collins said.
Papelbon started the week having converted all 13 of his save opportunities, but has blown three of his last four chances.
"It happens to all closers," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. "(Brad) Lidge (48 for 48 in 2008) is the only one I know who was perfect."
Frandsen gave Papelbon the win by launching the second pitch from Carlos Torres (0-1) into the left-field stands. It was Frandsen's first career pinch-hit homer and game-ending homer. Frandsen said he hit a game-winning homer off Torres during a summer-league game while both were in college.
"He wants to show people he can play," Manuel said.
Said Howard, "He's ready to go when his number is called. He's been that guy that wants to step up. It's no surprise."
Domonic Brown had a pair of doubles for Philadelphia and Jonathan Pettibone allowed one run in six innings before leaving with a back injury.
Valdespin drove in three runs and Omar Quintanilla had three hits and an RBI for the Mets.
"That is an absolutely great comeback," Collins said. "To come back in a game like that, that far, that big, I wouldn't have thought it."
Howard continued his domination of Dillon Gee, improving to 7 for 15 with six homers and 14 RBIs lifetime against the Mets right-hander.
"He definitely hits me," Gee said. "No matter what I throw, he hits it out of the park."
Howard, apparently, didn't want to jinx his performance against Gee.
"I feel all right," Howard said, when asked about facing Gee. "I'm not going to talk about my hitting."
The slugger's hitting has been under scrutiny for much of the season, but he has heated up of late and is batting .439 with 3 homers and 11 RBIs in his last 11 games.
"It's a long season," Howard said. "I think people get so caught up in what it is you're doing right now and you forget it's 162 games. It's kind of like it comes when it comes. Over the course of the season you're going to have ups and downs."
Gee also continued his struggles against the Phillies, allowing six runs (five earned) on eight hits in five innings. He is 2-3 with a 7.66 ERA in nine games (eight starts) in his career against Philadelphia. He entered 3-1 with a 1.53 ERA in his last four starts.
"I had nothing I could command," Gee said. "It was just a bad day. I was all over the place and they made me pay for it. . I just have to pick up the pieces and hopefully start another roll."
Howard's two-run single to right in the first gave Philadelphia a 2-0 lead. He led off the fourth with a solo homer to right and launched a two-out solo homer to deep right in the fifth. Young preceded Howard's second homer of the game with a solo shot of his own. Young also has success against Gee, improving to 8 for 11 with three homers against him.
Pettibone injured himself while batting early in the game. He drew boos when he didn't run out a weak grounder, but clearly there was something bothering him as he clutched his lower back on his way back to the dugout. Pettibone warmed up before the seventh, but exited without throwing a pitch in the inning. The Phillies announced later in the game that he was experiencing lower back tightness.

2008 Selbach Piesporter Michelsberg Riesling QbA
Over 3 nights. I generally avoid PM wines, but this is an
overachiever. Straightforward crisp Riesling, bright appley fruit,
moderate sweetness. Refreshing, light. B
2007 Hauner Salina Rosso
With a kale soup with parmesan over sourdough, this was pretty good.
As it got air, got better. I didn't like the white that much, but this
was a lovely mid-to-lite wine. Nice ripeness, balanced, redder fruits
with a nice earthy edge. B/B+
1996 Ch. Siran (Margaux)
With strip steaks in a coffee rub, grilled squash, grilled favas, and
chayote salad. I'm mostly a fan of 96 Medoc, but more Northern than
Southern. But I bought this for a reason, so opened with anticipation.
Solid cassis and red currant fruit, but with a huge streak of herbal/
pine green down middle. With time over dinner the herbal streak became
more "accents of oregano" rather than " pine sap." Enjoyable if not
great after couple hours. Gains riper fruit as it drops the over-
herbalness. C to start, B to finish.
So.....I went and checked Siran's website. 96 was apparently Merlot
34%, Cabernet Sauvignon 46%, Cabernet Franc 8% et Petit Verdot 12%.
12% doesn't sound like much, but PV is potent. I'm guessing that's
where the pine forest came from.
I also read the back of Siran label (front always has a different
artist label, kind of a Mouton wannabe) and saw this:

Cadmium contamination

I've been eating Navitas cacao products for several years now (mostly the nibs, though, lately, not the powder). I was horrified to read the Consumer Lab report that just came out. It found extremely high levels of cadmium (though no lead, at least), in Navitas Naturals cacao powder. Alas, I will be switching brands.

I am giving this 2 stars only because I was hoping for something more I suppose. I have used Now Organic Cocoa Powder for ages, and I thought I'd splurge and give this raw type a try. I suppose I am receiving more pure nutrients from it, but I don't find it to be any better than the more economical Now version. Oh well, now I know. :)

Although I like the flavor and aroma of this cacao powder, no matter how much I shake it up in my breakfast drinks it stays in little clumps that are unpleasant. A significant amount of it inevitably stays behind in the bottom of the container no matter how quickly I down it.

Jean Rhys, CBE (/riːs/; 24 August 1890 – 14 May 1979), born Ella Gwendolyn Rees Williams, was a mid-20th-century novelist from Dominica. Educated from the age of 16 in Great Britain, she is best known for her novel Wide Sargasso Sea (1966), written as a "prequel" to Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre.[1]
Early life[edit]
Rhys was born in Roseau, Dominica, an island of the British West Indies. Her father, William Rees Williams, was a Welsh doctor and her mother, Minna Williams, was a third-generation Dominican Creole of Scots ancestry. Creole was broadly used in those times to refer to island white people, whether they were of mixed or non-mixed blood.
Rhys was educated in Dominica until the age of sixteen when she was sent to England to live with her aunt. She attended the Perse School for Girls in Cambridge,[2] where she was mocked as an outsider and for her accent. She attended two terms at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London by 1909. Her instructors despaired of Rhys ever learning to speak "proper English" and advised her father to take her away. Now unable to train as an actress and refusing to return to the Caribbean as her parents wished, she worked with varied success as a chorus girl, adopting the names Vivienne, Emma or Ella Gray.[2]
After her father died in 1910, Rhys apparently experimented with the prospect of living as a demimondaine; she became the mistress of a wealthy stockbroker, Lancelot Grey Hugh ("Lancey") Smith. Though a bachelor, Smith did not offer to marry Rhys and their affair soon ended; he continued to be an occasional source of financial help. Distraught by events including a near-fatal abortion (not Smith's child), Rhys began writing and produced her novel Voyage In The Dark.[2] In 1913 she worked for a time as a nude model in Britain.
During World War I, Rhys served as a volunteer worker in a soldiers' canteen. In 1918 she worked in a pension office.
Marriage and family[edit]
In 1919 Rhys married the French-Dutch journalist (and spy) and songwriter Willem Johan Marie (Jean) Lenglet, the first of her three husbands.[2] She and Lenglet wandered through Europe, living mainly in London, Paris and Vienna. They had two children, a son who died young and a daughter; they divorced in 1933.
The next year she married Leslie Tilden-Smith, an editor. They moved to Devon in 1939, where they lived for several years. He died in 1945.
In 1947 Rhys married Max Hamer, a solicitor and cousin to Tilden-Smith. He spent much of their marriage in jail having been convicted of fraud;[3] he died in 1966.
Writing career[edit]
In 1924 Rhys came under the influence of the English writer Ford Madox Ford. After they met in Paris Rhys wrote short stories under his patronage. Ford recognized that her experience as an exile gave Rhys a unique viewpoint, and he praised her "singular instinct for form". "Coming from the West Indies, he declared, 'with a terrifying insight and ... passion for stating the case of the underdog, she has let her pen loose on the Left Banks of the Old World'."[2] It was Ford who suggested she change her name to Jean Rhys (from Ella Williams).[4] (At the time her husband was in jail for what Rhys described as currency irregularities.) She moved in with Ford and his longtime partner, Stella Bowen. An affair with Ford ensued, which, in fictionalized form, she portrayed in her novel Quartet.[4]
With Voyage in the Dark published in 1934, Rhys continued to portray the mistreated, rootless woman; here as a young chorus girl grown up in the West Indies who now finds herself in England and alienated. In Good Morning, Midnight published in 1939, the author used modified stream of consciousness to voice the experiences of an aging woman.
In the 1940s Rhys all but disappeared from public view; from 1955 to 1960 she lived in Bude in Cornwall, where she was unhappy—calling it "Bude the Obscure"—before moving to Cheriton Fitzpaine in Devon. After a long absence from the public eye she published Wide Sargasso Sea in 1966, having spent years drafting and perfecting it. Begun well before she came to Bude, the book won the prestigious WH Smith Literary Award in 1967.
In Wide Sargasso Sea, Rhys returned to themes of dominance and dependence, especially in marriage; here she depicted the mutually painful relationship between a privileged European man and a woman made powerless on being duped and coerced by him and others—quite a different perspective on the "madwoman in the attic" than that drawn in Jane Eyre. Diana Athill of the André Deutsch house gambled on publishing Wide Sargasso Sea,; she and the writer Francis Wyndham helped revive widespread interest in Rhys's work.[5]
Later years[edit]
From 1960, for the rest of her life, Rhys lived in Cheriton Fitzpaine, a small Devon village she once described as "a dull spot which even drink can't enliven much".[6] Characteristically, she remained unimpressed by her belated ascent to literary fame, commenting, "It has come too late."[5] In an interview shortly before her death Rhys questioned whether any novelist, not least herself, could ever be happy for any length of time. She said: "If I could choose I would rather be happy than write ... if I could live my life all over again, and choose ...".[7] She died in Exeter on 14 May 1979 before completing her autobiography, which she had begun dictating only months earlier, at the age of 87.[8] In 1979, the incomplete text appeared posthumously under the title Smile Please: An Unfinished Autobiography.
In 2012 English Heritage marked Rhys's Chelsea flat at Paulton House in Paultons Square with a blue plaque.[9]

American Comes to Charlotte, the Heart and Soul of US Airways
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (TheStreet) -- From the day Stephen Wolf selected the name US Airways in 1996, Charlotte Douglas International Airport has been the heart and soul of the airline.
So the airport celebration Monday of the deal that will put an end to the name, and to the airport's primacy, was bittersweet.
More sweet than bitter, though, because now the airport built by Jerry Orr over the past four decades seems destined to survive indefinitely as one of just two major air transportation hubs in the southeastern United States, home to 80 million people.
The deal combines US Airways with American, under the American name and the new stock symbol AAL. In Dallas on Monday, CEO Doug Parker, formerly CEO of America West and then of US Airways, and now CEO of American, rang the opening bell for Nasdaq. Dallas is the largest hub; Charlotte is second.
The day's bitter aspect was the awareness of what will be lost. Sometime in 2014 or 2015, the US Airways name will disappear.
Wolf, then CEO, chose the name to replace "USAir," hoping to recognize the integration of Piedmont and US Air under a classier brand name that resembled British Airways, at around the time that Charlotte began to eclipse Pittsburgh as the airline's biggest hub. US Airways is the last surviving pre-deregulation airline, other than big three American, Delta (DAL) and United (UAL) plus Southwest (LUV).
Additionally, Orr is currently airport director in name only, presiding over an airport authority that so far has been out-maneuvered in an effort to take over airport oversight. If the authority fails, Orr's career will become collateral damage in a battle between Charlotte Democrats and Raleigh Republicans for control of the airport and its hundreds of millions of dollars in annual cash flow. The politicians' singular focus on power trumped any awareness that Orr somehow built a world-class airport in a medium-sized southern city.
Without vast success in Charlotte, US Airways would have been a far less desirable merger partner. So Monday was Orr's day too.
Pope first worked at Charlotte Douglas when she was brought in from Boston to help implement the Piedmont merger. She worked to coordinate changes in reservations including policies involving ticketing and gate and curbside procedures -- the sort of details that form the guts of an airline's operations. The transition took two years. She left temporarily to be station manager in West Palm Beach, Fla.

The IDEO Stroller Team as Children...
Blocks were definitely a favorite of mine. And check out the early industrial design influence! Such symmetry! --Annetta Papadopoulos
My first toy was an empty box from a roll of 35-mm film. But my favorite childhood toys were Legos. Legos just have so many possibilities, like making robots, and houses, and even toy guns when your parents wont let you have toy guns. The idea of using your imagination, rather than just accepting whats in front of you, carries over to the culture of prototyping that we have here [at IDEO]. --Larry Cheng
My favorite playthings as a kid were building blocks, paper and pencil, and a toolbox. Building blocks left everything up to me to create. I learned about static and dynamic structure as well as getting pretty good motor skills piling blocks as high as possible. I used to draw constantly. I loved to take things apart and see how they went together. --Frank Friedman
I loved [this truck] because it was similar to my dads real truck (shown in the background). The fact that he was a contractor strongly influenced my career path. I was always designing and building things with the scraps left over from his jobs, which gave me a big head start on design engineering. --Jesse Fourt

I took DD to the doc last Wednesday for some nasal congestion at night. The Pedi checked her lungs, temp, and anything else that may be affected and just said that sometimes congestion is normal in babies. Keep a humidifier and saline drops handy and use the aspirator a couple of times a day. Well, she got better for a couple of days. Hardly any stuffiness. We still kept the humidifier on all night.
Then last night out of the blue she was worse off than she was the first time. She had snot dripping out of her nose and I could hear the stuffiness over the monitor. I used the aspirator and saline drops. And picked her up. She went back to sleep for a few minutes but woke back up. She still sounded congested when I took her to DC this morning. She still doesn't have a fever or seem like anything else is bothering her.
What else is there to do?!? I feel so bad for her. I also have had some stuffiness and I think she got it from me. But I can take medicine.. Any tips???
Besides what pp have said, this has really helped us so much more than a bulb syringe: http://www.amazon.com/BabyComfyNose-Nasal-Aspirator-Blue/dp/B002SZH45E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=hpc&qid=1307546428&sr=8-1
I'd ask pedi 1st, but with dd1 ours recommended putting Vick's on the bottom of her socks (rather than directly on her skin) to sleep. Last thing...try having her sleep at an incline.
Hope your DD is feeling beter soon!
jenileero:DD was congested a couple of weeks ago with no fever. We also hung out in the bathroom while the shower made the room super steamy (no fan) several times a day.
THIS! DS was sick around 6 weeks and he still still has some lingering mucous. However, the bathroom steam did the trick to get it out of his head. If he would just give one big huge cough, he would get the rest out, but his ped said it will probably take some time for that to happen.
Definitely try the shower.
oooo - VERY normal in babies 0-3 months to be congested (my lil' mama is, as well). they don't know how to get that stuff out of their nasal cavity yet, until it sometimes gags them (which seems so scary sometimes).
The steamy shower is a great trick, and I can see that a rather large bathroom that doesn't get steamy may not work. saline drops (such as lil' noses) i always recommended to patients in the past.
However, a great trick that most moms would probably freak about trying, is to use breast milk in place of the saline drops. Squirt a couple of drops of breast milk in each nostril a couple times per day, and, voila, it helps keep the passages somewhat clear and helps baby loosen up that congestion more naturally on their own. But, you have to be breastfeeding in order to find out the powers of this trick.
(Actually, breast milk can heal all sorts of ailments! Scratches from baby's fingernails to baby acne - simply rub breast milk into the skin like a lotion, and the scratches and acne will disappear - no joke!)
We went through this too. It ended up being a milk allergy! DD was so congested, however nothing was coming out when I was bulbing... Also, she was having frequent bowel movements that became mucousy. Eventually she starting having blood in her stool, which my pediatrician told me might be because she is pooping too much because she is swallowing back the mucous and the frequent poops are irriating her.. Now, we switched her formula and it is ALL stopped!
Look for other signs! Hopefully iti s just a little cold. It is so hard to see them uncomfortable!
My LO did the same thing. The congestion started in her nose then moved to her chest. She was especially congested at night and started coughing while sleeping. Took her to the doc and it was an ear infection, in both ears. I would try the doc again to be safe.

How to Stop Being Jealous of Your Friends
End envy for good in seven key areas
By Alina Dizik
Sweet Children
The problem: You havent had kids yetor the ones you have arent as well-behaved.
The fix: Looking at both the good and bad of parenting can calm your insecurities. If youre childless, take advantage of the upsides. Plan special evenings with your partner, take mini-vacations or indulge at a spa, recommends Dr. Levine, who, as a clinical psychologist, often gives women parenting advice. And if youre comparing your children to others, remember its easy for outsiders to see only perfection, she says. Instead, focus on your friendship (and not her family) by doing kid-free activities together.

Bunion Surgery: Should You Perform A Lateral Release?
Yes. Neal Blitz, DPM says the lateral release is a common component of bunion surgery as it aids in bunion correction and assists with reduction of the intermetatarsal angle when surgeons combine this procedure with structural realignment of the first metatarsal.
Bunion surgery is a common part of nearly all foot surgery practices and many surgeons have a strong opinion on whether a lateral release is necessary. We have all performed numerous bunion surgeries and have been exposed to various techniques for bunion correction. However, the lateral release seems to be common to a vast majority of all of these procedures.
Is the lateral release an essential component of bunion surgery correction or do we do it because we have been trained to perform it?
McBride popularized the lateral release in the earlier part of the century as an isolated soft tissue procedure to correct hallux valgus. Since the procedure did not correct the structural deformity, surgeons performed the procedure with fibular sesamoidectomy and/or adductor transfer in an attempt to maximize the soft tissue correction. However, it became apparent that overzealous work within the interspace may promote a muscular imbalance, resulting in hallux varus.
It is obvious that a bunion, for the most part, is a problem in which the first metatarsal deviates from its native position, resulting in a subluxation/deviation of the first metatarsophalangeal joint (MPJ). Therefore, surgical correction is geared toward restoring an anatomic relationship of the first metatarsal with the entire foot as well as restoring the alignment of the big toe joint. Depending on the severity of the bunion, the surgeon may restore this relationship through varying metatarsal osteotomies and/or fusion of the first metatarsocuneiform joint.
The lateral release is an ancillary procedure that facilitates this relocation of the first metatarsal. Remember that the osseous reconstruction is what drives the success of the correction.
The literature and textbooks are clearly filled with articles that utilize variations of a lateral soft tissue release as part of a bunion surgery operation, whether it is a metatarsal osteotomy and/or a Lapidus bunionectomy. We should remember that the surgeon may even perform the lateral release as an isolated procedure although this does not seem to be common practice today unless the deformity is indeed minimal.
The purpose of the lateral release is simple and, in my opinion, serves two very important purposes. The release eliminates the pull of the adductor muscle on the hallux and releases the soft tissue contracture of the lateral first MPJ capsule. The first addresses a potential cause of the bunion and the second addresses an effect of the bunion.
Removing the adductor tendon from its insertion on the phalanx (and sesamoid) eliminates a deforming force that pulls the big toe laterally. Whether one believes that the adductor musculature is a deforming force or not in the etiology of bunions is irrelevant. In the muscular imbalance tug of war between the adductor and abductor of the big toe joint, the adductor clearly has won. Restoring the balance of power by releasing/removing the adductor tendon altogether has some theoretic merit. However, in clinical practice, the adductor attachments can reform so this release may not be so permanent.
Releasing the lateral sesamoid ligament and lateral capsule contracture is important with larger bunions and longstanding bunions. For these patients, logic would suggest that the lateral side of the joint complex is tightened and/or contracted whereas the medial side is loosened and/or attenuated. Though this has not been proven scientifically with a bunion per se, we understand that, in general, dislocated or subluxed joints develop soft tissue contractures.

The Watershed: A Writing Studiocomments (0) April 29th, 2009 in Blogs
by Erin Moore
My family owns a small piece of former pasture-land in central Oregon. When my parents asked me to design a writing studio for the property, I worried that putting a building there would tarnish its ecological richness—that we would commit the age-old blunder of ruining a rare place by wanting to live right on it.
We talked over the question of building something for a couple of years. My family is a tough jury. My brother and my father are a research ecologist and a biologist, respectively; and my mother is an environmental philosopher and a nature writer. We all had a stake in the integrity of our tiny nature preserve, my mother needed a place to do her work, and I wanted to test out some new design ideas.
Our discussions unearthed two questions that became my design challenges: What kind of writing studio could we build without bringing a road or electricity to the site? And what could we build that would also disappear conveniently at the end of its useful life?
Before I finished the design, we took turns sitting in a chair on the hillside where the studio would be. We chose our favorite views, narrowed those down to just a handful, and then carefully measured where the openings should be to define them best.
The large window over the desk is the most traditional. It frames a moderately distant view of the field and the riparian forest. The high window at the rear frames a bit of sky in which there is often a raptor taking advantage of a local updraft.
Opposite the door is a very low window about 18 in. square that is meant to draw your eye to a patch of grass just outside—a view that is not extraordinary until you look closely and discover something like a new bloom or a cricket. It is easy to track seasonal changes in the color of the grasses through this window. It's also my 2-year-old niece's favorite.
|Butterfly roof. The studio's butterfly roof directs runoff into a trough that serves as the local watering hole.
|Room with a view. The big window above the writing desk frames a riparian forest in the distance, while below the desk, awning-style hinged panels rise to welcome meadow breezes.
Prefabricated for easy assembly on site
A quartet of concrete piers supports the studio. We cast the piers in place, with many hands making light work of it. We didn't miss having an electric-powered concrete mixer; instead, we put the concrete on a tarp and mixed it by pulling up on the corners.
The second stage—the structure— is a single freestanding steel armature. We had it fabricated in a metal shop, and then moved it to our woodshop where we cut and dry-fit the cedar skin and the polycarbonate roof to the frame. Then we took it back to its bare bones and moved the frame to the site with a front-loader. It can be removed the same way when it is no longer needed.

Tongueand- groove siding slips into grooves plowed in the sides of the cedar posts, making walls that can expand, contract, and breathe well in this damp climate.

We brought the rest of the parts to the site by foot, where we made final adjustments with battery-powered tools. The trail we blazed as we carried each piece is now the footpath to the studio, which we call the "watershed" for its rain-gathering roof and for the larger watershed that it inhabits, at least for now.

Bachok, Norfifah and Md. Arifin, Norihan (2008) Marangoni convection in a fluid layer with internal heat generation. In: 5th International Conference on Fluid Dynamics, 17-19 September 2008, Bangkok, Thailand.
Full text not available from this repository.
Official URL: http://www.waset.org/journals/ijmcs/v5/v5-4-31.pdf
In this paper we use classical linear stability theory to investigate the effects of uniform internal heat generation on the onset of Marangoni convection in a horizontal layer of fluid heated from below. We use a analytical technique to obtain the close form analytical expression for the onset of Marangoni convection when the lower boundary is conducting with free-slip condition. We show that the effect of increasing the internal heat generation is always to destabilize the layer.

Uphold human rights, Clinton tells China
Last Updated:
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, winding up a visit to Beijing, has called on all countries to uphold human rights.
She held two days of talks in the Chinese capital, overshadowed by the case of a blind dissident Chen Guangcheng, who initally took refuge in the American embassy.
In an appearance with Chinese leaders, Mrs Clinton said: "The United States continues to raise human rights because we believe that they are essential for every country to uphold, and we raise specific matters of individuals and situations whenever necessary.
"We cannot ignore our areas of difference in the comprehensive relationship that we are building."
Chen left US protection under a controversial deal but has since said that he wants to go to the United States.
The US denied reports he was coerced into leaving the American embassy.
A human rights lawyer who tried to visit Chen in hospital says he was beaten by a policeman and later confined at home.
Jiang Tianyong was taken away by five police officers outside the Chaoyang Hospital without explanation.
He told the Kyodo news agency by telephone from his Beijing home that a police officer named Du Yuhui attacked him while in detention. "(He) came up to me and punched me on my ears and chest. I lost all my hearing last night and still can't hear very well now,'' Jiang said.
Guard on house
Twelve officers have been posted outside his house.
Chen is an outspoken critic of forced abortions. He went to the the US embassy after escaping from home detention last month.
His friends say he agreed to leave the embassy after US officials conveyed a message from the Chinese government that thugs armed with sticks were ready to attack his wife.
But the US State Department says at no time did anyone speak to Chen about physical or legal threats to his wife and children.
China has demanded an apology from the United States for its involvement in the Chen affair.
"The US method was interference in Chinese domestic affairs, and this is totally unacceptable to China," ministry spokesman Liu Weimin said in a statement carried by the Xinhua news agency.
"China demands that the United States apologise over this, thoroughly investigate this incident, punish those who are responsible, and give assurances that such incidents will not recur."
A US official said there would be no repeat of the incident, but declined to comment on the call for an apology.

A Monday report by Bloomberg said that IKEA has received the go-ahead from the Indian government to open outlets in the country, making it perhaps the first major foreign retailer to set up its own stores in the region.
The Swedish furniture retailer was cleared by the Foreign Investment Promotion Board, according to a statement by Commerce Minister Anand Sharma. The approval is a turnaround for the Indian government which last year barred Ikea from operating cafes and limited retail wares it could sell in stores.
