The four board-certified, well-educated foot surgeons at Westside Foot & Ankle Specialists keep leg-ending extremities healthy with a variety of surgical and non-invasive treatments. Surgeries help repair everything from fused joints to painful bunions, making it easier to walk or run. A full team of physical therapists help guests get the most of their restored bodies.

When it comes to her patients' health, employing one school of thought isn't enough for naturopathic doctor Mai Nguyen-Pham. That's why, at All Naturopathic Clinic, she incorporates five wellness philosophies— clinical nutrition, botanical medicine, lifestyle counseling, physical medicine, and homeopathic medicine—to broaden her approach to improving patients' well-being. With physical medicine's colon-hydrotherapy and massage sessions, Dr. Nguyen-Pham helps improve her patients' circulatory and immune systems, whereas her understanding of botanical medicine allows her to prescribe natural dietary supplements to support function of the liver, digestive tract, or respiratory system. From this diverse repertoire, Dr. Nguyen-Pham creates a custom regimen of treatments to aid each patient in any number of wellness goals, such as losing weight, overcoming insomnia, or becoming Fabio.
When former NFL athletes Justin Peelle, Wesly Mallard, and Joey Harrington became best friends, they hardly could have predicted it would give birth to Xtend Barre Beaverton. Nevertheless, when their wives ? Sara, Whitney, and Emily ? met, they found a common passion in fitness, and decided to start Xtend Barre studio. The workout founds its motions in the principles of Pilates, amping up the regimen with elements of dance, the use of the ballet barre, and simple lifting regimens. In addition to the ample muscle building, the style focuses on lengthening that muscle with extensive stretching during each session.
Founded by Dr. Stephen Joffe and Craig Joffe, a father-and-son team who used LASIK eye surgery to correct their own vision, Joffe MediCenter has four locations across the country where expert ophthalmologists use advanced diagnostics to conduct each custom wavefront LASIK surgery. Treatment begins with a free, noninvasive examination with Bausch & Lomb Orbscan and Zywave mapping systems?derived from technology developed for astronomy and physics applications. They generate a 3-D model of each eye, which, like a fingerprint or favorite line from The Princess Bride, is unique to each person.
Upon assessing the results to confirm LASIK candidacy, doctors schedule an in-office surgery in their state-of-art clinic. The LASIK procedure is designed to eliminate your need for glasses and contacts regardless of whether you suffer from nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. The vast majority of patients experience 20/20 vision the next morning after treatment. After the procedure, doctors will schedule postoperative exams.

David over at Boing-Boing spotted this jaw-dropping video of an experimental robot arm doing things that scare the bejeesus out of me. David writes:
Researchers from the Ishikawa Komuro Laboratory at the University of Tokyo presented this incredible video of a high-speed robotic hand at the 2009 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation. The laboratory's Web site has many more videos related to this project, called Sensor Fusion. Sensor Fusion: High Speed Robots
For my money, the most impressive stuff is around 2:22, near the end.

adversary procedure
adversary procedure
In Anglo-American law, the principal method of offering evidence in court. It requires the opposing sides to present pertinent information and to introduce and cross-examine witnesses before a jury and/or a judge. Each side must conduct its own investigation. In criminal proceedings, the prosecution represents the government and has at its disposal the police department with its investigators and laboratories; the defense must arrange and pay for its own investigation. (Legal aid is available for the poor.) In civil (noncriminal) proceedings the adversary system works similarly, except that both sides engage private attorneys to prepare their cases. Skillful questioning often produces testimony that can be interpreted in various ways; in cross-examination, lawyers seek to alter the jury's initial perception of the testimony.

"Grown-Up" S'mores Pie with Guiness
Thursday, 11 March 2010
This is slowly turning into a baking blog. Can you tell that baking was my first passion in the kitchen? It's still what I'm most comfortable doing (although I love being in the kitchen period).
Anyway, I heard about this pie contest for Pi day via Serious Eats on Monday. I instantly decided to enter and started to brainstorm pie ideas. Although I love baking, pies have never been my forte. I've never been a big pie eater, so I've never had a serious interest in making them. Graham cracker crusts are less intimidating (and more delicious in my opinion) than dough crusts, so I went from there and developed an idea for an "adult" version of s'mores.
The product? A salty, buttery graham cracker crust with toasted walnuts, rich bittersweet chocolate center with Guiness beer, and homemade marshmallow.
This isn't your childhood s'mores. It's a rich, decadent, indulgent, mature version of the classic dessert. Plus, it's just in time for St. Patrick's Day!
The graham cracker crust:
- 2 oz walnut pieces
- 1/2 C packed, light brown sugar
- 1/2 C graham cracker crumbs (about 7 crackers)
- 1/2 t salt
- 1/4 C unsalted butter, melted
Preheat oven to 300°F. Spread walnut pieces on a baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until lightly browned and aromatic (watch carefully, they burn quickly!).
Place toasted walnut pieces in food processor with 3 T of the brown sugar. Blend until finely chopped. In a large bowl, whisk nuts with graham cracker crumbs, remaining brown sugar, and salt. Pour melted butter over this mixture, and mix with your fingers until everything is well combined. Press evenly into a greased 10-inch glass pie plate. Bake crust 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
- 1 C Guiness beer
- 1/2 C heavy cream
- 4 oz good quality semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
- 4 oz good quality bittersweet chocolate, chopped
- 1 whole egg, plus 2 egg yolks
- Dash of salt
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In separate small saucepans, heat cream and beer over medium-low heat, stirring somewhat frequently. Place all the chocolate pieces into a large bowl. Once the cream and beer are both very hot (don't let them reach boiling), pour over the chocolate. Let sit for a few moments, then whisk together until all the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add eggs and dash of salt, whisking to combine.
Pour over pie crust until pan is 1/2-3/4 full. I had about 3/4 C leftover, so I poured it into a ramekin and baked it alongside the pie. Cover the exposed crust with aluminum foil and bake pie for 20-25 minutes, or until center is set and doesn't jiggle much when shaken. Let cool completely (about 1 hour) before making the marshmallow topping.
The marshmallow topping:
You can cheat and use store bought marshmallows, but I can't speak highly enough of this recipe. It's surprisingly easy (you just need a candy thermometer and, ideally, electric beaters). I'd never made homemade marshmallows before this, but I don't think I can go back to store bought now!
- 1/2 C cold water, divided in half
- 1/4 C light corn syrup
- Pinch of salt
- 3/4 C sugar
- 1 t unflavored gelatin
- 1/2 t vanilla
In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 C cold water, corn syrup, sugar and pinch of salt. Whisk together over medium heat. Once sugar is dissolved, let sit unstirred until mixture reaches softball stage (around 235-240°F).
While sugar mixture is boiling, sprinkle gelatin over remaining 1/4 C cold water in a large, deep heatproof bowl (a stand mixer bowl is perfect for this). Let stand for about 1 minute, until it softens. Beat this at medium speed.
Once sugar mixture reaches softball stage, remove from heat and carefully pour into gelatin, avoiding the beaters and sides of the bowl. Immediately begin mixing on high speed, for 5-8 minutes, until mixture increases in volume and turns white and thick. Add vanilla and beat for a minute more. Pour marshmallow topping onto the center of the pie, scraping the bowl with a spatula. Filling will spread over pie, but use spatula if you need to cover some areas.
Chill uncovered for 1 hour. Then loosely cover pie with aluminum foil and chill for 3 more hours. You can let it sit overnight if you don't want to serve it immediately (wait to brown the top until you want to serve).
When you're ready to serve, brown the top either using a creme brulee torch or by putting the pie under the broiler (cover the edge with foil first so the crust doesn't burn!) for 2-3 minutes. If you do it under the broiler, don't take your eyes off the pie or it may burn. Let cool 5-10 minutes if you can wait that long before eating. Keep a damp towel nearby to wipe your knife between slices.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Pantages!
Facts about Pantages
- Breed: Siamese
- Color: Tan Or Fawn (Mostly)
- Age: Young
- Sex: Female
- Hair: Long
Pantages's Info...
I am already spayed and not good with cats.
If you are interested in viewing or adopting these kitties, please go to www.orphankittenrescue.com/adopt and fill out an application.
Papa Burger and Pantages are a gorgeous pair of Siamese cross cats looking for a relaxed home in which to spend lazy days sunbathing, basking by the fireplace, and enjoying a good game of chase together. Pantages used to call an old, abandoned theatre in East Vancouver her home. She was likely abandoned by her owners and so had to make do on her own before she came to VOKRA. Papa Burger shares a similar past in that he was found struggling to find his next meal near an A&W stand. They are both very affectionate cats when they warm up to you and love to be brushed, cuddled, and of course enjoy a good tasty meal. They are a bonded pair and so must find a happy home together. If you're looking for a couple of quiet, but goofy kitties to share your life with, these two are the perfect fit. Must go to a calm home with no other kitties.
Again, if you are interested in viewing or adopting these kitties, please go to www.orphankittenrescue.com/adopt
Other Pets at Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association (VOKRA)
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Pantages, a Vancouver Siamese cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Siamese for sale in Vancouver, or seeking a Siamese cat from a breeder in Vancouver.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Vancouver already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Vancouver breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Siamese breeders who help with Siamese rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Vancouver paves the way for another one to be saved.

I am so stunned by all the bad reviews.....I really love this and I am so sad that this is a limited edition perfume. I managed to track it down though and plan on purchasing this for awhile. I also love Jadore, but it gets boring....
I purchased this perfume as a set of 5 collection Dior minis at an airport . I didnt like any of them including this one - it is nothing special like a smell and it is not persistant . Maybe it is only question of taste but this is ny opinion -till now from all Dior perfumes i maybe liked only one.
It's a pitty that this perfume is special edition. I wish I could buy it again. I'm not giving it 5 lippies cos this is not my favourite fragance but anyway, I love it. And the best of all, it drives my boyfriend crazy!!!By the way, he's the one who bought it for me.
This was a very generic scent. Nothing special about it. Fruits and florals that smelled very chemical and almost knocked me over when I first smelled it.
I Love Dior but don't love this fragrance :( ... there's a dozen or more floral-based perfumes on the current market that all smell like this IMHO. Undistinctive and highly disappointing...
its OK. a generic fruity floral a/ little staying power. The bottle is the tackiest since Cher's.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
After so many lily of the valley style perfumes, you just come to a a point where you can't really smell a difference from one to the next. This has a bit of a champagne edge to it... but it's still based on florals that are in other classic dior perfumes. It just has a bit of a zest with the addition of what reminds me of wine or champagne. Not a serious perfume.. not heavy.. but not heaps of fun either.
I bought this on sale a while ago, and am currently using it as my daytime perfume. I think this is an ok scent, but nothing too special. Has strong notes of lily-of-the-valley in it. The bottle is super cute though and I managed to get this very cheap (it's been discontinued?) so I am happy. Wouldn't repurchase though even if it were available.

Doctors lose license but still treating patients
Contact 5 Special Report
Doctors are dedicated to comforting the sick, aiding the diseased and saving lives.
While the majority of Florida doctors are abiding by the rules and dedicated to helping patients, the Contact 5 Investigators find a small minority who have been deemed too dangerous to practice in other states, are still licensed to treat patients in Florida.
"There's something wrong with the system," said Michael Hannon, a widower with a warning. Michael's wife, Janet was 57 and preparing for her son's wedding when she decided to undergo a series of nip and tucks inside a Maryland clinic. What was supposed to be a 6 hour procedure, lasted more than 10. Two days later Michael found his wife, lifeless, in their living room.
"I went in to check on her and her body was ice cold. I called 9-1-1, tried CPR, but she was gone," he said.
An administrative law judge in Maryland ruled Janet's surgeon, Dr. Oscar Ramirez, violated several medical rules during and after her procedure.
The Hannon family would later learn, five months before Janet's surgery, another patient in Maryland also died following a Ramirez procedure.
"Had appropriate action been followed then, my sons would still have their mother," said Hannon.
"Sometimes even now it's not real, you have to pinch yourself and say what happened," said Janet's son, Bryan.
Last summer, the Maryland health board finally revoked Oscar Ramirez's medical license for, "failing to meet the standards of quality medical care."
But, if you look up Oscar Ramirez in Florida. You'll find a record that's clean, a license that's clear and a doctor still treating patients.
The Contact 5 Investigators asked Dr. Zacharia Zacharia, a member of Florida's medical board, why patients should trust Dr. Ramirez in Florida.
"It's not a case where just because someone else has revoked their license, you just revoke them the next day," said Dr. Zacharia.
He says just because a doctor's license is revoked in one state, doesn't mean it's automatically taken away in another state.
"It has to go through due process," he said. "Due process is fair to both the doctor and the patient. You have to be fair to both sides."
Dr. Steven Rosenberg, a West Palm Beach dermatologist and former member of Florida's medical board, has been frustrated with the system for years.
"If they're incompetent in Virginia, Delaware or New York, why would anyone think they're competent here," he said.
Last year, while it took the state medical board an average of 72 days to issue a doctor a new license, it took them an average of 434 days to take a license away, according to the Florida Department of Health.
"Unfortunately, it's very difficult sometimes to revoke those licenses because of the legal opportunities they avail themselves of," explains Dr. Rosenberg.
Case in point, Mark Geier. He was found misdiagnosing autistic children and treating them with a potent hormone-suppressing drug. He's lost his medical license in at least four states, and in Florida he has a pending case, yet his license remains clear and active.
"Therein lies the problem, it can take 5 or 6 years for a case to progress," said Carol Gentry, editor of Health News Florida. She's been covering Florida's Medical Board for 20 years.
"There are a few rogues who go from state to state or one place to another, or they get away with sloppiness or bad acts, like drug trafficking and they get away with it for years and they keep popping up! I've written about the same people for as much as 20 years!"
Remember, in Oscar Ramirez's case, it took Maryland 6 years after the deaths of two patients before his license was revoked.
So where is he treating patients in South Florida? At a cosmetic surgery center in Weston where the Contact 5 Investigators went undercover for a surgery consultation.
We asked Dr. Ramirez if he thought he was a risk to the public practicing as a physician.
"I practice with the highest standard of care. My surgery center (in Maryland) was a state of the art facility with all the safety issues for patients, so I wasn't, I don't believe I was a risk," said Ramirez.
Ramirez maintains his patient deaths in Maryland were not the result of his surgeries. He recently lost his appeal in Maryland but plans to fight to maintain his license in Florida, where a complaint is pending; the question is for how long.
"No system is perfect but I think the system in Florida works very well," said Dr. Zacharia.
"All I can think of is suppose another woman walks into that center and ends up the same way my mom did and what happens to that family? You can't roll the dice with people's lives," said Bryan Hannon.
According to Florida rules,
a doctor is required by law to self -report if they have been disciplined in another state. A new Emergency Suspension Unit, has been created to stop doctors with questionable pasts from treating patients while their case moves through the system.
