Study Shows EXPAREL® Provided Improved Pain Control, Shorter Length Of Hospital Stay And Substantial Cost Savings Following Total Knee Replacement
Pacira Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:PCRX) today announced results from a 200-patient study evaluating the benefits of EXPAREL ® (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension) as the foundation of a multimodal postsurgical pain management regimen in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA), commonly known as total knee replacement. The findings show that patients treated with EXPAREL experienced better pain control with improved knee flexion and a shorter length of hospital stay compared to patients who received a femoral nerve block with a local anesthetic, the current standard of pain management for TKA. Additionally, the use of EXPAREL resulted in a substantial cost savings. The data were presented at the Marshall Steele 7th Annual Orthopedic and Spine Summit in San Antonio.
The study evaluated a matched cohort of 200 patients undergoing TKA, half of whom (n=100) received femoral nerve block, while the other half received EXPAREL infiltration. The investigators recorded average pain scores, knee flexion, length of stay, and performed a cost analysis for both groups.
Compared to patients who received a femoral nerve block, patients treated with EXPAREL experienced:
- Lower pain scores during the first 24 hours (4.0 in the EXPAREL group compared to 4.9 in the femoral nerve block group) and on day 2 after surgery (4.7 in the EXPAREL group compared to 5.3 in the femoral nerve block group)
- Greater improvement in knee flexion at both week 3 and week 9 follow up (109° to 121° for the EXPAREL group vs. 100° to 105° for the femoral nerve block group)
- Shorter overall length of hospital stay (2.2 days for the EXPAREL group vs. 2.5 days in the femoral nerve block group), with greater likelihood of discharge the day after surgery (12 percent of patients in the EXPAREL group compared to zero patients in the femoral nerve block group)
- A 55.5 percent reduction in medication and delivery system costs ($285 vs. $640, respectively, independent of additional cost savings related to anesthesia fees)
"While femoral nerve blocks have long been chosen for postsurgical analgesia following TKA, their use has been associated with quadriceps muscle weakness, which can lead to falls and negatively impact ambulation, which we know is an imperative step in the rehabilitation component of orthopedic surgery," said Brandon Broome, M.D., the study's lead investigator and a practicing orthopedic surgeon at the Steadman Hawkins Clinic of the Carolinas, in Greenville. "In our study we found that no patients in the EXPAREL group experienced quadriceps weakness, and that in a subgroup analysis, patients receiving EXPAREL demonstrated a mean daily ambulation of 138.8 feet, compared to 89.6 feet in patients with a femoral nerve block, making a strong case for the utility of EXPAREL in these procedures."

.- The mysterious Missouri priest who gave anointing to a woman in her wrecked car near Center, Mo. has been identified as Father Patrick Dowling, of the Diocese of Jefferson City.
"I thank God and the amazingly competent rescue workers," Fr. Dowling stated today in a comment on CNA's original article on the Aug. 4 incident.
"I thank them for making me welcome in such a highly charged situation and allowing me to minister as a priest."
Katie Lentz was trapped in her older-model Mercedes, which had been struck by another vehicle which passed into her lane. That car's driver has been charged with DWI.
Rescue workers spent an hour trying to get Lentz out of her car, but the solid materials of its construction were dulling the fire department's emergency equipment.
Though the highway was blocked off, "I did not leave with the other cars," Fr. Dowling commented. He parked as close as he could, "and walked the remaining 150 yards. I asked the Sheriff if a priest might be needed … on checking, he permitted me to approach."
"When the young lady asked that I pray her leg stop hurting, I did so. She asked me to pray aloud and I did briefly … the rescue workers needed space, and would not have appreciated distraction. I stepped to one side and said my rosary silently until the lady was taken from the car."
Once Lentz was removed from her vehicle, he explained, "I then shook hands with the Sheriff, and thanked him, as I left. I have to admire the calmness of everybody involved."
"The Highway Patrol sergeant was amazingly calm and completely in control. Everybody worked with the harmony of a Swiss watch."
CNA spoke with Fr. Dowling Aug. 12, and he explained that he gave Lentz Anointing of the Sick as well as absolution.
He affirmed that it was in the normal duties of a priest, "except that there was something extraordinary it sounds like, in the sequence of events that coincided in time with the Anointing."
"You must remember, there were many people praying there, many, many people … and they were all praying obviously for healing and for her safety."
"I was probably part of the answer to their prayers, I came by and Anointed and absolved, (but) I didn't say another word … I did not say anything like the machinery would begin to work or they would succeed in getting her out of the car."
"That did not come from my lips, though two people heard it."
Fr. Dowling was driving by Center while on his way from having said Mass in Ewing. A native of Ireland, Fr. Dowling was ordained a priest for the Jefferson City diocese in 1982. He has served at several parishes in the diocese, as well as its two mission parishes in Peru.
Fr. Dowling currently serves in prison ministry and serves the Spanish-speaking population of the Diocese of Jefferson City.

Golfers have long turned to belly and long putters to boost accuracy on the greens. With an elongated grip, belly and long putters are anchored to the golfer's chest or stomach to stabilize the club while putting.
Because the left arm (or right arm for left-handed golfers) remains motionless, most long putter users take on a "claw-like" grip – similar to clutching a pencil. This allows the golfer's fingers, rather than their wrist, to guide the direction of the putt.
Long putter devotees claim the added weight and fixed position of long putters helps prevent players from rotating their hands. Anchoring the club can minimize wrist movement and eliminate a golfer's tendency to push or pull putts.
But for many golfers who use a long or belly putter that will soon change.
Earlier this year, the United States Golf Association announced plans to ban use of belly and long putters in 2016. Golfers looking to make the switch can find an alternative in counterbalance putters.
Counterbalance putters are crafted with extra weight in the grip area of the shaft. This weighting technique blends the look and feel of a conventional putter with the weight and stability of a long putter.
Stop into a Golf Galaxy store near you, and have our experts find the right putter for your game.
By analyzing your stroke, launch angle at impact, stature and style of play we will fit you with the putter that gives you the confidence need to drain every putt.

Finding a comfortable belly putter length will vary based upon body type, but the chart below provides a healthy approximation according to height:
For an even closer measurement, simply hold a string against a comfortable anchor point on your mid-section (1"-2" above belly button) and measure from the anchor point to the top end of your conventional putter grip. That measurement + the length of your conventional putter will provide you with an even closer belly putter length fitting.
Like the belly putter, long putter length does vary based upon body type, posture, and comfortability in your own unique stance. But, to gain some insights into what a healthy approximation would be, there are a couple factors to consider in general. First, figuring out if it's more comfortable to have the end of the putter closer to your chest or your chin. Many players with back problems prefer a longer putter (closer to the chin), as this length requires very little bend in the spine. Second, once a comfortable anchor point has been reached, players should make sure that their eyes are over the ball, about 2" out from the toe. Long putters typically range from 46" to 53".
When the toe of the putter head is up at the point of impact, there is a tendency to pull the putt. Conversely, if the toe of the putter head is down at impact, there is a tendency to push the putt. A belly putter provides a stable lie angle when anchored properly 1"-2" above the belly button and this added stability promotes a better lie angle, as the sole of the putter is parallel with the putting surface.
The U.S.G.A allows a maximum 80° lie angle, which is typically what long putters are designed with. Again, like the belly putter, this can vary - but a greater lie angle is very common in long putters and will offer the highest percentage of success when it comes to maintaining a level and stable angle to the putting surface.
Belly and long putters maintain consistently heavier head weights in comparison to a conventional putter head weight. This heavier weight serves as a balanced counterpoint to the stable anchor point on your mid-section, chest, or chin area. The heavier clubheads promote a straight back and straight through swingpath, coupled with face angle consistency.
Center shafted belly and long putters generally have very little offset, while end shafted belly putters generally have more offset built into the hosel. Hosel-less end shafted belly and long putters are typically designed with a double bend shaft to compensate, again providing more offset.

Constant Meowing
Find a Conversation
|Sat, 10-26-2013 - 2:03pm
Ari is driving us all us all nuts! He just walks around yelling about:
a.) Wanting to go outside.
I let him outside when I have a chance to supervise. It's usually at least once a day for 15-30 minutes depending on how he behaves. Sometimes if he's being good and chilling within the fenced in yard it's a lot longer. Then of course if it's dark, or I have things to do inside and can't watch him he meows at the door non-stop.
b.) To get food other than his cat food.
This is more recent and completely out of no where. He's never shown any distain for his kibble, and was always excited when I'd pour it into the bowl. Recently, he's had no interest. He wants to eat everything besides it. He screams by the closet where his treats are kept. He tries to eat the dog's kibble (which is pretty much a less fatty verison of his food, so I can't understand why he'd like that more.) He climbs up on the counter and licks the oil out of the iron skillets. He pulled a bag of hamburger buns off of the counter and took a bite out of one. It's madness! I assume that he has to be eating a little bit of kibble, because he's shown lack of interest in it for a least a week now, and he's still chipper and full of energy. He's getting nourishment from somewhere. It's hard to tell since both cats share two bowls, and I'm fairly confident that Mia is eating normally. I have definitely been refilling the bowls less frequently though. I'm going to buy Ari some soft cat food today, because I know he loves that and at least maybe it will fill him up enough that he won't be begging for human food all of the time. How much is too much soft cat food for me to give him? He's super skinny (8 lbs, and he almost two pounds since last year. The vet wasn't worried though, since he seems completely healthy.)
Thanks for reading, and in advance for any advice you may have for getting him to calm down(!!!)
|Sat, 11-02-2013 - 10:18am
That's good that the Ari's meowing is getting better. It sounds like he's liking people food a lot.
You could probably feed Ari a good half can twice a day. If he's underweight then you could give him more.
|Thu, 10-31-2013 - 8:49am
|Wed, 10-30-2013 - 9:16am
Thanks, ladies.
I think that he has maybe calmed down a little. He still gets really excited at any human food activity in the kitchen, but the meowing has lessened. My husband has admitted to giving him chicken twice in a few days. We had never given him human food before, but my brother and law lived here for a while a few years ago and he did a few times. I don't remember Ari freaking out about it then.
The meowing to go outside is my fault for letting him outside. It's hard to keep him in though, because he enjoys it so much. I'm sure to a degree the fresh air is good for him too. He does send a lot of time in the windows.
All in all though, the soft food has been helping. With this cold weather, he's actually been snuggling us more, which he never ever does! How much soft food should I be giving him though? I've been giving him a third of a can per day. He's also eating the hard food too now and then.
Thanks again!!!
|Tue, 10-29-2013 - 1:35pm
How's it going? Has the meowing lessened since you started giving him canned food? Maybe he was just hungry?
If one of the reasons to let your cat out is for the grass, you can buy him a little container of cat grass at the pet store or wheat grass at the health food store. If he likes it you can grow your own cat grass from seed for a fraction of the cost.
Does he spend a lot of time at the windows? Maybe he wants to go out to hunt? I've noticed that Coco is a little more active and alert in the past couple of weeks. The weather is cooling down, but I think its at least partly because there's more activity outside with birds and squirrels looking for food. She's spending more time watching all of that and less time asleep.
Funny that after 3+ years in your home his behavior changed so suddenly.
|Tue, 10-29-2013 - 12:28pm
It sounds like you got him eating better giving him the Friskies canned food. Honestly any canned is better than dry for cats, but tell our cats that! I have a couple that won't touch canned. My cats prefer Friskies or 9 Lives over any of the more expensive canned food.
You may have created his hollering because he wants out. I leash trained a couple of my cats years ago and they drove me crazy wanting out. A lot of the time it just wan't convienent for me to take them out. I quit taking them out on the leash. It took a couple of weeks, but they settled down. They did try to escape a lot so I had to keep a squirt gun by the door to discourage that. It could be the change in weather too. Cats seem to be affected by it sometimes. I think the younger ones more so for some reason.
Hopefully he will settle down and act more like himself.
|Mon, 10-28-2013 - 12:00am
Well, it's not like giving a kid candy. It's like letting a kid play outside. They stay safe if they're in the house, but his joy in life is running around the yard and eating grass. I love him and want him to be happy while staying safe. So, I let him in the back yard with supervision.

|Sun, 10-27-2013 - 7:00pm
I bought him some Friskies soft food today. I stood there in the cat food aisle at the grocery store comparing brands. They're pretty much all the same. I know that the fancy independant pet store that we go for treats and kibble has the good stuff, but it's soooo expensive. I just gave him some Friskies soft food, and he went nuts. I feel like I created more of a monster now, because he's begging for more of it. I gave him a third of a pretty big can.
I do need to try to play with him more. He has a doggie sister and a kitty sister competing for play time. They actually bring toys to my lap asking to play. Ari never does that, but he does play a bunch by himself.
Thankfully he's not acting at all agressive towards Mia. Mia seems completely sweet and innocent, but she's definitely in charge around here!
Hopefully you're right about it just being the weather changing. Maybe when winter comes he'll hibernate and calm down. I've barely seen him sleep the past couple of weeks!
|Sun, 10-27-2013 - 3:01pm
Another thought... Since it seems your cat does go outdoors, have you checked him for parasites--both external AND internal?? Ticks are TERRIBLE this year, and there always seem to be one or two resistant to ALL topicals. Your cat may be sporting some, or have contracted something from a bite. Worms are a constant problem. Any cat who goes outdoors is at risk for parasites, and should be routinly tested and inspected.

Japan stocks declined a fifth day, the longest losing streak in two months, as economic reports from the U.S. and China added to signs global growth is slowing ahead of tomorrow's European Central Bank meeting.
Nissan Motor Co., Japan's second-largest automaker, dropped 1.9 percent as its vehicle sales in the U.S. missed estimates. Komatsu Ltd., a maker of construction equipment that gets about 14 percent of its sales from China, slid 3.5 percent on a report mainland industrial output may slow. Chubu Electric Power Co. (9502) rose 2.4 percent to lead gains on the Nikkei 225 (NKY) Stock Average after forecasting a narrower first-half loss.
The Nikkei 225 lost 1.1 percent to 8,679.82 at 3 p.m. in Tokyo, closing at the lowest level since Aug. 3. The five-day decline was the longest losing streak since July. The broader Topix Index slid 1.2 percent to 718.09 today. The ECB's Governing Council is due to decide tomorrow on President Mario Draghi's bond-buying proposal, which he says is necessary to ensure the monetary bloc's survival.
"The macro backdrop is quite challenging and growth conditions are fragile obviously," said Nader Naeimi, Sydney- based head of dynamic asset allocation at AMP Capital Investors Ltd., which manages almost $100 billion. "The market is getting nervous about going into the ECB meeting. There's a lot of speculation on the ECB about what they will do."
The Topix dropped 18 percent from this year's peak on March 27 on concern Europe's debt crisis is deepening and growth is slowing in China and the U.S. The gauge trades at 0.9 times book value, compared with 2.2 for the Standard & Poor's 500 Index and 1.5 for the Stoxx Europe 600 Index. A number less than one means companies can be bought for less than the value of their assets.
U.S. Manufacturing
Futures on the S&P 500 slid 0.4 percent today. The gauge fell 0.1 percent yesterday after Institute for Supply Management's U.S. data showed U.S. manufacturing shrank for a third month in August, the longest decline since the recession ended in 2009.
Exporters to the U.S. declined. Canon Inc. (7751), a camera maker that gets 27 percent of sales from the U.S., lost 3.9 percent to 2,463 yen. Sony Corp., Japan's biggest exporter of consumer electronics, slipped 3 percent to 863 yen.
Nissan Motor dropped 1.9 percent to 722 yen. The automaker's deliveries in the U.S. increased 7.6 percent last month, according to researcher Autodata Corp., short of the 12 percent average estimate in a Bloomberg survey.
Companies that do business in China fell on signs of a deepening slowdown. Komatsu dropped 3.5 percent to 1,475 yen. Fanuc Corp., a maker of industrial robots, slipped 2 percent to 12,550.
China Outlook
The nation's growth in industrial output may slow to about 10 percent this year from 13.9 percent last year and 15.7 percent in 2010, the Securities Times newspaper reported today, citing a joint report by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Adding to signs of slowdown, China's services industries expanded at a weaker pace in August, according to a survey released by HSBC Holdings Plc and Markit Economics today.
Among stocks that rose, Chubu Electric gained 2.4 percent to 909 yen. The utility said it expected its first-half loss to narrow 79 percent to 4 billion yen.

Burton took all those cheesy ass things you love about winter (cocoa, quilts, snow angels) and knitted them into the Mimi Beanie, a cozy hat that's awesome for one of the non-cheesy things you love about winter: ripping the hill a new one.

I love love this beanie. I got it in black and I wear it snowboarding and my ears are never cold. I can even pull it down over my face to block that ski-lift wind! Cute and casual enough to just wear on a bad hair day too.

* Straight from tonight's Merc website (MY VERSION)/
SAN FRANCISCO— They will knock down Candlestick Park at some point, and the thunder from NaVorro Bowman's electrifying play on Monday will be still echoing when it happens.
Who could've predicted that?
That is how it all turned out on Monday night's Candlestick farewell, which could've gone all kinds of wrong until Bowman, with help from Tramaine Brock, saved the party.
He saved a lot of things, clinched a playoff berth for the 49ers, and made himself a scintillating and last-minute part of Candlestick lore along the way in the 49ers' 34-24 victory over Atlanta.

Public Housing:
Status of HUD's Takeover of the Chicago Housing Authority
T-RCED-95-275: Published: Sep 5, 1995. Publicly Released: Sep 5, 1995.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
GAO discussed the Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) takeover of the Chicago Housing Authority (CHA), focusing on: (1) whether HUD chose an appropriate method of staffing CHA; (2) obstacles HUD will face in rebuilding CHA; and (3) HUD accomplishments in revitalizing Chicago's public housing units. GAO noted that: (1) HUD seemed to make the best decision possible in taking over CHA with its own and borrowed staff, since key CHA staff resigned and Chicago's mayor did not support receivership; (2) HUD will face several obstacles in rebuilding CHA, such as the deteriorated condition of 40,000 CHA housing units, the cumbersome organizational structure of CHA, residents' distrust of proposed changes, major crime and security problems, federal laws and regulations, and insufficient funding; (3) in the last 3 months, HUD has reorganized CHA management, privatized selected functions, and developed short-term plans to improve maintenance and security, rehabilitate its physical stock, and foster community development; and (4) HUD still must hire key upper-level managers for CHA and commit to a long-term plan to phase itself out of CHA in order to gain the trust of residents, CHA staff, and the city.

This is a dark green, chrome-y, glitter eye shadow. It is appropriately called zodiac, because it dark, mysterious and magical. You do have to build the color to get a full effect, otherwise it just looks like green sparkles. It is a really stunning color tough.
This is such a beautiful Eyeshadow. It is sooo pigmented and blends easily and the way it shines is amazing because it reflects blue, gold yellow sparkles. If you guys want to see what it looks like I did a tutorial on my youtube channel.
2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I own a lot of green eyeshadows, it's actually my favourite colour to emphasise my brown-black eyes. My favourites are MAC Club, Greensmoke, Humid and Sumptuous Olive. When I saw the swatches for the new Urban Decay Moondust eyeshadows, I instantly knew wanted Zodiac. I got my hands on it a couple of days ago and it is love! It's the most enthralling smokey green with a black base full of fine, multi-dimensional blue, green and silver glitter! Used dry, the formula is standard Urban Decay - butter soft, extremely pigmented and a dream to apply. Used wet though and Zodiac comes to life! It gives it that foiled wet-look that accentuates the glitter so much more! I use this under Too Faced Shadow Insurance and Maybelline's Colour Tattoo in 'Too Cool' and it stays in place, perfectly. The best thing is, the fall-out isn't even as bad as you'd expect, sure there's a little, but nowhere as much as the traditional glittery eyeshadows produce. Overall, Urban Decay are onto a winner these Moondust eyeshadows, heavily pigmented, sparkly and beautiful shades! I just need to add Intergalactic to my purple collection now!

More reviews by AntiqueGlitter
When I saw Urban Decay's new Moondust Eyeshadow launch, this was the only shade that caught my eye.
Zodiac is an AMAZING and unique eyeshadow--it's my current favorite! The shade is a black base with so much blue, aqua, and green glitter that I think it could be a duochrome. But of course, these words don't do Zodiac justice. You need to see and swatch it yourself--it's unbelievably beautiful!
The formula, like all UD eyeshadows, is fantastic. It's very soft and buttery and a dream to apply. Love it!
The pigmentation is pretty good on itself, but to make the shimmer all KAPOW and in-your-face, you need to apply it wet. That way, the glitter is more prominent and true-to-pan. Better yet, apply it wet on top of a black cream eyeshadow (I use MAC Paint Pot in Blackground) to intensify Zodiac's black base and thus make it stand out even more!
Another reason to use a cream base: there's fall-out. You probably saw that coming, with the sht load of glitter and all, but you definitely need some kind of adhesive base to get it to stay on your eyes. Even then, there's still minimal fall-out, but the shade is so beautiful that I don't even mind cleaning it up.
It's pretty pricey at $20 each, but it's what basically every UD eye product costs, so the price isn't surprising.
Would I repurchase? Yes.

More Credits (29)
We've always known Meredith Grey to be the dark and twisty one on Grey's Anatomy, but apparently she's got nothing on Amelia and Derek Shepherd.
It's Amelia's (Caterina Scorsone) night to shine (or flame out) on Grey's, with her drug-fueled past putting her career in jeopardy. How does she get to this point?
Just when I was ready to give Dr. Herman (Geena Davis) the trophy for "Grey's Anatomy's Most Horrible Character Ever," the show had to go ahead and throw in a brain tumor twist.
That sound you just heard was the hearts of millions of Calzona fans smashing into pieces.
On Thursday's pivotal episode of Grey's Anatomy, Callie (Sara Ramirez) and Arizona (Jessica Capshaw) put forth a valiant effort to save their marriage — and then ultimately realized that maybe they're better off just calling it quits.
It's a true Throwback Thursday edition of Grey's Anatomy this week, with all kinds of new information about Ellis Grey (Kate Burton) and her relationship with Richard (James Pickens Jr.) coming to light.
How did everyone feel about all the flashbacks?
read more
At the start of this week's Grey's Anatomy, Meredith (Ellen Pompeo) is in full needy mode, interrupting Alex (Justin Chambers) in the shower to tell him about her latest half-sister - and complimenting his junk in the process. (This scene proves that I could never be Meredith's roommate, let alone her person.) While hiding from the shower buddies, a jealous Jo (Camilla Luddington) tells Stephanie (Jerrika Hinton) that she's missing Cristina. Who agrees with her?
[A quick Cristina tangent: I really applaud the way the show is handling Cristina's exit with random shout-outs and references. Nothing worse than a show that writes out a character, and their friends and loved ones adopt a policy of never speaking of them again.]

Gamma Knife Perfexion System Supplied By American Shared Hospital Services Begins Treating Patients At Lovelace Medical Center
AMERICAN SHARED HOSPITAL SERVICES (NYSE AMEX:AMS), a leading provider of turnkey technology solutions for advanced radiosurgical and radiation therapy services, announced today that the Gamma Knife® Perfexion™ system it supplied to Lovelace Medical Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has begun treating patients. As announced in April, this Perfexion system is an upgrade to the Gamma Knife supplied by AMS to Lovelace Medical Center in 2003.
"Widely regarded as the most advanced stereotactic radiosurgery system available today, the Perfexion system refines and expands the therapeutic potential for radiosurgery procedures in the brain, cervical spine and head and neck regions," said David Nevill, chief executive officer of Lovelace Medical Center. "We are proud that this state-of-the-art technology is now available to better serve our cancer patients."
Lovelace Medical Center is the flagship hospital of Lovelace Health System, which is comprised of a network of three acute-care hospitals that include Lovelace Medical Center, Lovelace Women's Hospital and Lovelace Westside Hospital, a rehabilitation hospital, Lovelace Health Plan offering access to a wide range of health care providers and specialists across New Mexico, S.E.D. Medical Laboratories, and 11 retail pharmacy locations in Albuquerque, Rio Rancho and Santa Fe.
AMS Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Ernest A. Bates, M.D., said, "We are pleased to provide Lovelace with this upgrade to next-generation radiosurgery technology at an affordable price."About Gamma Knife ® Perfexion TM Gamma Knife Perfexion maintains full clinical compatibility with the classic Gamma Knife and is supported by efficacy and outcome data from 500,000 treated patients worldwide and thousands of peer-reviewed scientific articles, making it a proven choice for radiosurgery of the brain. According to its manufacturer, Elekta, Gamma Knife Perfexion reduces unwanted body dose to the patient by up to 100 times compared with competing technologies, which is particularly important for treatment of children and women of childbearing age, and allows for a dramatically increased treatable volume, which is expected to increase the number of patients that can benefit from Gamma Knife surgery. Elekta estimates that the fully automated and efficient single push-button approach can save 3-5 working weeks of physician time per year at an average Gamma Knife center.

The first major salvos in the crowded race for the 10th Senate District seat will be fired this week as the five contenders try to knock each other off the ballot.
Incumbent Sen. Ada Smith's legal troubles, stemming from a March altercation with a staffer, brought out a bevy of challengers earlier this year, but the number of candidates will likely be reduced once the complicated system to get on the Democratic Party primary ballot is completed on July 27.
In addition to 18 year veteran Smith (D Jamaica), the field includes District 28 Community Education Council President Shirley Huntley, anti gun advocate Liz Bishop Goldsmith, Rochdale Village activist Joseph Marthone, and former City Councilman Allan Jennings Jr. Jereline Hunter is the designated Republican Party candidate. Smith has been endorsed by the Queens County Democratic Party.
Each candidate needs 1,000 signatures from registered party members in the district that stretches from Richmond Hill to St. Albans to get on the ballot for the Sept. 12 primary. Signature petitions were due at the Board of Elections by July 13, kicking off the political equivalent of a school yard dustup.
Candidates have six days to challenge the signatures on their opponents' petitions. If a petition is challenged, the Board of Elections must determine by July 27 whether or not the signatures are valid. It is common for the majority of petitions to be challenged. There is no limit to the number of challenges that can be filed and any registered voter in the district can file a challenge.
"We're going to look at all the candidates' filed petitions. We have all the papers ready to challenge," said Mark Bynoe, Huntley's campaign manager.
Despite the possibility of disputes over signatures, the incumbent expressed confidence about making the primary ballot.
"Many thousands of individuals have signed petitions, which we are submitting this week, that qualify me as a candidate for re election as state Senator for the 10th Senatorial District," Smith said. "As always, I am pleased by the broad base of support and enthusiasm I have received from every corner of my district."
Huntley, who has perhaps the highest profile among Smith's challengers, also expects to make it through the petition process. "I know that we're doing well. If there was a crisis, I'm sure (my campaign team) would let me know," she said.
Bynoe would not reveal the number of signatures the Huntley campaign has collected, but said it met expectations and was well above the required 1,000.
Tanya Cruz, the deputy campaign manager for Bishop Goldsmith, said her campaign planned to file 3,000 signatures by the 13th, with 2,000 collected as of late last week. Bishop Goldsmith, who was the first candidate to announce that she would challenge Smith, said her campaign is going well.
"I don't have a lot of money, but I have faith. Mine is a positive and winning campaign," said Bishop Goldsmith at a candidates' forum hosted by the controversial Committee for Outsiders in Cambria Heights last Thursday. Bishop Goldsmith was the only contender from the 10th Senatorial race to attend.
Marthone and Jennings could not be reached for comment this week.
