Oroville CA – On February 26, 2015, at approximately 4:00 pm, Deputy Darrin Brown attempted to initiate a traffic stop on a vehicle for failing to stop at a stop sign, at the intersection of Margo Lane and Stump Drive. The suspect vehicle, a 2006 Pontiac G6, failed to yield and led deputies on a pursuit that traveled over 4 miles.
The suspect fled eastbound and the pursuit ended when the suspect lost control of the vehicle and collided into a fence near the 3700 block of Foothill Blvd. The driver fled on foot and was quickly apprehended after a short foot pursuit.
Steven Mathew Berrigan, 42-years-old, from Sonora, was arrested for felony evading, weapons charges and had two outstanding felony warrants for his arrest. Several firearms and live ammunition were also located in the vehicle and Berrigan is a convicted felon. Berrigan was transported and booked into the Butte County Jail and is being held on $118,000 bail.
If anyone has information regarding this incident, please contact the Butte County Sheriff's Office at (530) 538-7321.

Release by: Sgt. Jason Hail
The Butte County Sheriff's Office, working in conjunction with the Butte County District Attorney's Office has been conducting an on-going investigation into the disappearance of Deborah Diane Owens. Deborah Owens was reported missing by her husband, Marvin Gail Owens (age 62) on November 21, 1978 two days after Marvin said he had last seen her. Deborah Owens was living with her husband Marvin Owens and their children at 5373 Crestridge Drive, Oroville when she was last seen. To date, no one including Deborah's now grown children and other relatives have ever heard from her and no evidence of life has surfaced. The husband, Marvin Owens has long been suspected of killing and disposing of Deborah's body.
Former Butte County Sheriff Perry Reniff has been working on Cold Case homicides in Butte County and has spearheaded this case. As a result of this investigation, the Butte County District Attorney has filed a felony arrest warrant charging Marvin Owens with the murder of his wife, Deborah Diane Owens. Marvin Owens was arrested by the Keith County Sheriff's Office in Nebraska. The exact timeframe for Marvin Owens extradition from Nebraska back to Butte County is unknown.
Investigators are looking into the possible connections between the disappearance of Deborah Owens and another missing and suspected deceased woman named Essie Margarette Hiett, who disappeared in February 1978.
The following is a link to the Butte County Sheriff's Office website detailing unsolved missing person cases:

Kelly Ridge, CA – About 5:30 this afternoon, employees of the Lakeside Market in Kelly Ridge called the Sheriff's Office to report a man wandering around in the store playing with a knife, wearing a motorcycle helmet, sunglasses and a jacket. While awaiting our arrival they were able to evacuate the store of all the other employees and customers and locked the doors with the man inside. Within 15 minutes of the initial call, the first 2 deputies arrived, followed shortly by officers from California Highway Patrol and State Parks. Deputies cordoned off the store and parking area, defining a perimeter that gave law enforcement a safe space to work in while allowing the public a place to observe from a safe distance. The immediate investigation revealed that the man in the store wearing a motorcycle helmet and playing with a knife was most likely mentally unstable or medically imbalanced rather than a subject with criminal intent – no person was directly threatened and very minor property damage occurred. Employees told the responding deputies that the man was wandering throughout the store for nearly two hours prior to them calling the Sheriff's Office. When they saw him start to play with a meat cutter in the deli area is when they approached to assist him and saw him also playing with and swinging a large knife.
Deputies on scene were able to identify the subject in the store and contacted family members who confirmed the subject had a medical disorder. A member of the Butte County Sheriff's Crisis Negotiations Team was on scene and utilized a public address loudspeaker to make contact with the man in the store. During the communications, the man came to the back door of the business where law enforcement officers ordered him to the ground. When he did not comply a TASER was deployed without success and the man ran back into the store. The negotiator re-established contact with the man and was able to talk him back out of the store where he was detained by 8:00 PM. The subject did not appear to be physically injured, however an ambulance and Cal-Fire were on scene to check him out prior to taking him to the hospital for treatment. No one suffered any injury during this operation. The Butte County Sheriff would like to thank The California Highway Patrol, California State Parks, Cal-Fire and First Responder Ambulance for their assistance on scene and to Oroville Police Department and California Highway Patrol for their assistance in the other parts of the county in responding to other critical calls for service in the unincorporated south county patrol area and allowing us to focus our efforts in a peaceful resolution in Kelly Ridge. The man's name is not being released as this matter was one of medical assistance.

Oroville, CA— Butte County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to a call at approximately 12:30pm, on Cold Creek Lane in Oroville, regarding the report of a female subject threatening family members with a large kitchen knife. The subject was later identified as Jessana Carmona, age 30, of Oroville. As deputies were responding, it was reported that Carmona had ordered her mother, at knife-point, to drive her to Ophir Elementary School so that Carmona could see her children. Carmona was reportedly threatening to stab her mother, and was also threatening to stab herself. Deputies located the vehicle, a 2005 Cadillac sedan, on Forbestown Road, traveling towards Oroville. Deputies pursued the vehicle and an additional deputy was dispatched to Ophir School to assist with security and lockdown. Carmona's mother was rescued when she stopped the vehicle at the intersection of Oro-Quincy Hwy and Forbestown Rd. After a brief struggle, deputies were able to arrest Carmona. Carmona was taken to a local hospital for treatment of minor injuries sustained in the struggle with deputies. Carmona is being booked at the Butte County Jail for Kidnapping, Assault with a Deadly Weapon, Criminal Threats, Brandishing a Deadly Weapon, and Resisting Arrest.
The victims were not injured in this incident. No motive has been determined at this time.

February 5, 2015
During the course of the ongoing investigation, Sheriff's detectives identified the suspect as Kevin Blaine Dunkle, age 33, of Oroville. Dunkle was believed to have fled the area after the stabbing. An arrest warrant for Dunkle was obtained. On February 3, Dunkle was arrested in Mendocino County, California and was booked in the Mendocino County Jail for Assault with a Deadly Weapon. His bail was set a $30,000. The motive for the stabbing is not known, however, a witness reported that Dunkle had challenged another person to fight prior to the stabbing.

We are very proud to announce the publication of Eileen R. Tabios' The Awakening: a triptych of long poems exploring the diverse ways an awakening unfolds. Also included is an essay on the poet's personal perspectives on the indigenous and the avant garde. The poems range over such disparate elements as the sexual lives of painters (and discussing such details with Dr. William Carlos Williams) to real-time emails on the poet's "9-1-1" birthday after the attacks on New York's World Trade Center to Angelina Jolie's involvement with refugees. The book's attention span/expanse reflects Ms. Tabios' attempts to collapse time into a point of universal empathy as the reader is asked: "Who decides what kind of life and why? // What kind of / life and / Why?" |

Roche's Road Ghosts An unexpected treasure, Road Ghosts, is an on-the-ground poetic
document of radicalized students coming of age in the late '60s &
early '70s. Its clarity of external & internal detail is often startling.
Its detached camera eye lucidly documents the process of portent, pretense
& Utopian fervor associated with that brief opening in U.S. dissident
cultures & the generational clashes inspired by idealism, psychedelics,
& quest fever. It's a profound personal essay on being & becoming. –
David Meltzer
Tempered, perhaps, but unrestrained, with all that reading on his tongue,
and the patience that comes from learning that defeat is durable, Ellis'
poems treat of evidence that victory opens only when declared. These
sonnets - clear about their debt to Jack Clarke - still certify the
divergent passions of master and student. Clarke's concerns are
epic, while Ellis is all about eros, the love set to its sense, the
hours of touch and solitude, the clarity of specific spaces his constant
theme. To be clear in these variations yet constant to the gliding phantom
of their underlying base, remarks of a deft hand, given that the periodic
unit here is line over grammar. While he treats of simple thought and
homeliness, he is equally didactic, discursive, encyclopedic, and one
honey-tongued mother fucker. We are lucky to have him. Steven
Tills 's Behave To
someone like myself, who seriously believes that poetry should be funny
even when it's being serious, who believes that words should be
trifled with, truffled with, trod upon, sat upon, shat upon, played
with, plaid with, parlayed into other words, speyed, splayed, relayed,
decayed, flayed within a micrometer of their possible meanings &
then given mouth-to-mouth so that the whole process, the hole progress,
the holy protest can start all over again, this book is a joy. I'm
reminded of a jazz musician, has to be a sax player, someone of the
caliber of Bird or Coltrane, who starts a solo with an exquisite phrase,
returns to it, reworks it in a series of variations that build upon
themselves until a point is reached which it seems can not be gone beyond,
that it can't get any better. & then goes & tops the whole
thing. & then moves on to the next song, where it happens all over
again. – Mark Young Available Later This Year, 2013: |

Making Molecular Analysis Count in Diagnostics,...
Findings from the National Faculty Study
Scratching the Surface of the Microbiome...
A Fast-Moving and Evolving Space
(Page 1 of 1)
Certain SNPs may indicate a greater lung cancer risk in African Americans than in Caucasians, despite occurring less frequently in African Americans. Researchers from the Karmanos Cancer Institute and the University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center found that the genes CHRNA3 and CHRNA5 may contribute to lung cancer risk due directly to or through their association with nicotine dependence. The study appears in the October issue of the Journal of Thoracic Oncology.
The investigators evaluated data on 1,508 non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients (38% of which were African American) and 1,314 corresponding control patients matched based on age, sex, and race. The three case-controlled studies examined family history of lung cancer, smoking history, and age.
Using unconditional logistical regression, the scientists identified associations between SNPs and lung cancer risk. Despite reporting lower levels of smoking, lung cancer incidence remains higher for African Americans than for Caucasians.Previous conclusions from genome-wide association studies identified links between NSCLC risk, smoking behavior, and SNPs on chromosome 15q25.1. The present study concentrated on the genes CHRNA3 and CHRNA5, confirming a stronger association with the risk of lung cancer than with nicotine dependence in African Americans.

Though acoustic guitar and harmonicas may have helped Woody Guthrie kill fascists, Coe remained a rock 'n' roll animal without a band until he hooked up with Interscope executive/bassist Mitch Powers, who helped him recruit a band. And the Enablers were born as a live act with a weekly residence at L.A. punk club the Garage in June 2002. The band made an immediate impact, which shocked Coe.
"You realize that, anywhere, people are starved for a good show," he says. "You know, it's L.A. There are a lot of bands. But there's not a lot going on out there. I saw a flier yesterday that said, 'There's 1,000 bands playing Los Angeles tonight. We are not one of those bands. '" He laughs: "Then what are you?"
Unfortunately, Powers got engaged, and the Enablers soon found themselves sans bassist. But before Powers left, Coe's South Florida homeboy, Quit guitarist Addison Burns, came out to L.A. and recorded the Enablers material. Coe began e-mailing MP3s of Burns' recordings to anyone who ever gave any of his bands the time of day, a shotgun approach that soon paid a dividend.
"I thought I was e-mailing the file for 'Tomorrow' to Russell Remains at Fracture Zine," Coe muses. "Instead, it landed in the hands of Dave Hopkins, who was just starting [UK indie label] Newest Industry. He liked it and said, 'Do you have any more?'"
Newest Industry signed the band, and in March 2003, Coe flew back to Miami for a weeklong bacchanal/recording session at Dungeon recording studios with Burns, ex-Dashboard Confessional bassist Dan Bonebrake, and Pivot drummer Jordan Keith.
"I blew out my voice on the plane because of the altitude or something," Coe recalls. "I thought, 'I can either take care of it and stop drinking, or I can just keep drinking and go for it.' So I kept drinking. We'd go until we were too drunk to do anything. And you'd have to be pretty drunk not to play. So we'd sleep on the floor of the Dungeon, curl up in one of the blankets that they wrap the microphones in, and repeat the process the next day."
The result, Sweet Fuck All, is Coe's masterpiece. While lacking the unhinged mania of Fay Wray's best work, Coe's Dylan-meets-Westerberg lyrical stylings ("Dear Beer/Can you say when?/I'll hear the telephone ring/And make her take me back") work wonders, while the music sounds like a three-way street brawl among Social Distortion, the Replacements, and Leatherface. Despite (or perhaps because of) the alcohol consumed at the session, the playing is crisp and balls-out. Not bad for a band that had never played together before the session.
Newest Industry was so thrilled with the record that it is flying the Enablers across the pond for a two-week UK tour next week -- the first overseas tour for all but Bonebrake (whose brother Darryl is now playing drums). That was enough for Coe to put his stuff in storage and go for broke. Is this his midlife crisis?
"It's a prelife crisis," he responds. "I held out for good terms. They are taking care of everything! Flying us out, lodging, renting the back line, the van, getting the work permits -- who gets that opportunity? It ain't rocket science. I'd have to be a moron to pass up what's in front of me."

The sound is just ok. I too am usually a stickler for sound, but I love the vibe/imagery of Freya/Freyja so much that I don't even care about the sound. It's such a lovely, curling-wisps-of-smoke name, and sort of magical and evening-y. I heard a little boy call his adorable redheaded sister Freya in Target the other day and was like "yes!

I love Freja/Freyja. Freja is the Danish spelling of it, so obviously that's close to my heart, but I prefer Freyja. In 2012, 514 girls were given the name Freja and it came in as #3 on the most popular names in Denmark in 2012. Freja is also the most well-known Norse goddess in Denmark. It isn't my favourite girls name from the Norse mythology (Sága is), but it's definitely up there.

Juventus general director Giuseppe Marotta has denied reports that his club have reopened talks with Inter Milan with a view to signing Fredy Guarin.
The Turin giants came close to acquiring the Colombia midfielder last week, only for Inter to pull out of negotiations.
Despite Juve's initial disappointment, reports in Italy have claimed Guarin's proposed move to Juve is back on.
However, Marotta said to Gazzetta dello Sport: "We have already spoken at length about this issue and this is a closed chapter.
"There have been no meetings whatsoever."
Inter president Erick Thohir called off the proposed swap deal, which would have seen Juve forward Mirko Vucinic join the Nerazzurri and Guarin go the other way, as it did not offer his club "any financial or technical benefit".

Big ideas start here
CSIRO aims to establish and build relationships with members of the community. We welcome people of all ages to come and explore our facilities, holiday programs and public events.
Phone: 1300 363 400
Email: email@example.com
CSIRO, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, is Australia's national science agency and one of the largest and most diverse research agencies in the world.
Large-scale, long-term, multidisciplinary science to address Australia's major national challenges and opportunities.
CSIRO manages national facilities and collections that are opened to researchers around Australia and overseas.
CSIRO's Lansdown Research Station is one of five national demonstration sites set up to help primary producers with practical methane management on-farm.
CSIRO's Lansdown Research Station in north Queensland supports a team of researchers using novel technologies to deliver science-based solutions for the tropical beef industry.
Lansdown Research Station is a 638 ha property located south-east of Townsville that provides state-of-the-art facilities for field research and demonstration aimed at delivering practical on-farm solutions to improve the productivity, profitability and sustainability of the northern Australian cattle industry.
The property is typical of the country in the Burdekin and surrounding catchments. Annually, it receives approximately 850 mm rainfall, mostly in the wet season (December to March), and supports a predicted pasture yield of more than 3 tonnes dry matter per hectare (1.3 tonnes per acre).
The facilities at Lansdown enable researchers to test their research in a real on-farm environment as well as demonstrate innovation to graziers, rural industries and government. The on-site facilities include:
Lansdown Research Station comprises 638 hectares of coastal mixed woodland country. Pastures range from open country to lightly wooded and support a mixture of native and improved pasture species, including Rhodes grass (Chloris gayana), Black speargrass (Heteropogon contortus) Queensland bluegrass (Dichanthium sericium), desert bluegrass (Bothroichloa ewartiana), Urochloa (Urochloa mosambicensis), Seca (Stylosanthes scabra) and verano (Stylosanthes hamata) stylos and leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala).
Significant weed species include Chinee Apple (Ziziphus mauritiana, Captain Cook or yellow oleander (Cascabela thevetia) and American Rats Tail grass (Sporobolus jacquemontii). An ongoing weed control program is in place.
The soils are sodolic with a predominantly sandy loam texture. The climate is typified by hot humid summers and mild winters. Annual minimum and maximum temperatures are approximately 18° and 29° C, respectively with an annual average rainfall of 850 mm.
The property has a stock carrying capacity of approximately 200 adult equivalents and is usually stocked with Brahman and tropical composite Belmont Red weaner cattle. The Station houses research offices, support buildings, welfare-friendly cattle yards and other infrastructure that supports the research and demonstration activities. It also has a permanent staff of three and the Station Manager lives on-site.
Research activities at Lansdown represent an holistic approach to grazing animals and their environment. By improving our fundamental understanding of how animals interact and adapt to their environment, and using the latest technological advances in a systems context, we can drive science innovation to create tangible and valuable impact for industry.
The research strives to improve productivity for producers through reducing input costs and increasing efficiency of production while at the same time reducing the environmental impacts of the beef industry. Owing to Lansdown's geographic location it acts as a testing ground for many applications that can eventually be demonstrated on larger commercial properties.
Some of the key research areas at Lansdown include:
Methane produced from the anaerobic fermentation of feeds in the rumen of cattle contributes about 8 per cent of all greenhouse gases produced in Australia. This also represents a loss of energy that could otherwise be used to increase animal performance. Lansdown is the only facility in northern Australia with the capacity to conduct research on livestock's contribution to greenhouse gases. This research will increase our understanding of greenhouse gases and help producers increase production and reduce emissions from their herds. Research activities include:
Lansdown Research Station supports a comprehensive science program that aims to improve our understanding of the interactions between cattle and their grazing environment and establish a precision livestock management capability that will underpin the future profitability and resilience of extensive grazing systems in northern Australia. Precision livestock management enables more timely, accurate and risk-informed decision making through easy and timely access to information about exactly what's going on around the farm and the current state of all its resources.
The ability to measure previously hard to measure traits is invaluable in improving the phenotypic understanding of production and links into basic genetic and genomic research undertaken elsewhere in CSIRO. Work in precision livestock management includes:
Research undertaken at Lansdown underpins national programs of work. The research involves collaborations with key scientists nationally and internationally including those at James Cook University, Queensland Department of Agriculture Fisheries and Forestry (QDAFF) and the University of Melbourne. Research at Lansdown is funded by CSIRO and a range of external agencies including the Australian Government's Climate Change Research Programs, Queensland Government Smart Futures Fund and Meat and Livestock Australia (MLA). It supports a local research team of 12 staff as well as a number of researchers and students from across Australia and overseas who utilise the site.
Lansdown Research Station is located on the Flinders Highway 45 km south-west of Townsville and 94 km north-east of Charters Towers in North Queensland.

What to Expect From Total Hip Replacement Surgery
How New Advances Have Improved This Joint Pain Treatment

Your doctor says you need total hip replacement surgery – and your painful hip says it too. Worried as you may be, there's little downside to this common operation: Hip replacements are faster and safer than ever with new materials and surgical procedures. Find out about the recent innovations and what to expect as you recover...
When a hip joint is damaged by arthritis,
the pain can be unbearable. That's the time to talk to an orthopedic surgeon about hip replacement, says Geoffrey Westrich, M.D., director of joint-replacement research at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City.
"Once people have hip pain that affects their daily lives
climbing stairs, getting up from a chair, difficulty walking
it's time for a consultation," he says.
Close to 200,000 Americans choose this joint pain treatment every year, according to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons.
The success rate is high: Only about 2% of patients have surgical complications such as joint infection.
"Hip replacement surgery is one of the safest surgeries we perform," Dr. Westrich says.
And now it's getting even safer. Incisions are smaller, recovery time faster, and there are more surgical options to choose from.
The newer operations, called minimally invasive surgeries, no longer require incisions of 6-9 inches, which were necessary in the past, Dr. Westrich says.
"Now we make relatively small incisions of about 3 inches," he says. "And we've designed [smaller] instruments to use during surgeries."
These techniques cut through less muscle and soft tissue, so recovery time is faster.
Not only is the surgery less invasive, but pain-management methods also are safer. More surgeons use spinal anesthesia, which numbs from the waist down, instead of general anesthesia.
"Regional anesthetics lower blood pressure, so there's less bleeding," says Bradley Gerber, M.D., chief of total joint replacement surgery at South Nassau Communities Hospital in Long Island, N.Y., who does 300-400 joint replacement surgeries a year.
"They also reduce the risk of infection or a blood clot in the leg."
Another less-invasive joint pain treatment is hip resurfacing, which has fewer postoperative limits, Dr. Gerber says.
"We don't cut away bone," Dr. Gerber says. "Instead, we reshape the head of the femur and place a cap on it." That fits into a socket, similar to those used with other hip-replacement surgeries.
But women, especially those over 55, face a higher risk than men of fracture near the top of the thigh bone from hip resurfacing, according to a 2008 study at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago. The researchers speculate that a bone's smaller size and quality make it more vulnerable. (Older, female bones tend to be softer.)
"Good hip-resurfacing candidates are under 50, have good bone quality and participate in athletic activities," Dr. Gerber says.
Special Concerns for Women
About the same number of women and men have hip replacements, according to a 2009 report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
But women are more likely to be in severe discomfort by the time they get joint pain treatment, according to a 2011 study Dr. Westrich presented to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgery.
This may be partly because they're more likely to live alone than men, making them apprehensive about who will care for them after surgery, Dr. Westrich says. But it's wise not to wait.
If someone waits and has more pain and disability before surgery, there's a greater risk for problems later, he adds.
Women who had total hip replacement surgery and were more disabled beforehand didn't recover as quickly as men, according to a 2002 University of Minnesota study of Medicare patients.
Types of Hip Replacements
In traditional approaches to total hip replacement surgery, a surgeon cuts away damaged bone and cartilage, then places a metal stem with a ball on top into the center of the femur (leg bone). A metal socket fits into the hip bone you were born with, allowing the ball to move. The socket's liner can be made out of plastic, metal or ceramic.
"We typically use metal or ceramic in younger, more active patients – in their 50s and 60s – because those materials are less likely to wear out than plastic," Dr. Gerber says.
Metal replacements also may have a porous covering, so that bone can grow into the new hip, naturally holding the parts in place after six weeks.
Cement, which doesn't last as long, is often used for older patients in their 70s and 80s, Dr. Gerber says. Cement is less expensive but doesn't work as well in obese patients.
Rehab and Recovery
Most hip replacement patients are hospitalized for about three days, says Lisa Konstantellis, MSPT, section manager of the Joint Mobility Center at the Hospital for Special Surgery. A day after surgery, a physical therapist reviews precautions for the next six weeks.
Plan on using a crutch or cane for the first 4-6 weeks, says Charles Kim, M.D., a rehabilitation specialist and clinical instructor at NYU Langone Medical Center in New York City.
You may also have to give up work for one month to six months or more, depending on job activity. Most people with desk jobs can return to work in a month or so.
"You're not allowed to bend your hip more than 90 degrees," Konstantellis says. "That means if you're sitting in a chair, your knee should be lower than your hip. "
And forget driving, which is one of the worst hip positions, Dr. Kim adds. "You should plan to have someone drive you around for several months."
The therapist will also ask you to avoid crossing your legs until the replacement sets solidly in place. Crossing legs "could dislocate the new hip," Konstantellis warns.
From day 1, you'll be doing a lot of exercises. For example, the therapist will ask you to push the back of your knee into the bed mattress, tightening your thigh muscles.
"We ask patients to do 10 repetitions of each exercise every hour they're awake," Konstantellis says.
Some patients may work with a physical therapist at home. You'll learn how to use a shower bench and raised toilet seat to make bodily functions easier and safer. A therapist will also teach you how to get in and out of bed, stand and walk.
"A lot of these people have been limping for a long time because the hip is in pain from arthritis, so we have to teach them how to stand straight and not favor that leg anymore," Konstantellis says.
At about six weeks, most patients return to the surgeon for X-rays to see how they're healing. The doctor may prescribe outpatient physical therapy for 6-8 weeks, 2-3 times a week.
Dr. Kim suggests sleeping with a foam wedge (or
adduction pillow)
between your legs for three months to stabilize the hip. It's available online or at surgical supply stores.
"Three months is typical for good recovery. But most
recovery takes a year," he says.
Managing Pain
Your arthritis pain will likely be gone right after total hip replacement surgery, says Dr. Kim. But you may have surgical pain for two to four weeks. How bad it will be is tough to estimate.
"One person's pain can be a '2,' while another patient is an '8,'" he says.
Some patients can get by with over-the-counter acetaminophen (Tylenol). The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regards 2,000 milligrams to 3,000 milligrams (mg) per day as safe – but to avoid the risk of overdose, Dr. Kim recommends only 1,000-1,300 mg per day.
"For those who are elderly or have liver problems, I'd only recommend 1,000 mg a day," he says.
"But most people need something stronger, like Vicodin [acetaminophen and hydrocodone], for about a month afterward," Dr. Kim adds.
(For more on acetaminophen, read
Pain Medications: Could You Be Overdosing?
How fast you heal depends on your health.
"If you don't have other conditions, like diabetes, recovery is usually quicker," Dr. Kim says. "And as you build new muscle and the replacement area firms up, you can do more."
If you haven't moved your hips for years before surgery, you may never return to a full range of motion, warns Dr. Westrich.
"It's not just the hip but the muscles around it that are affected," he says. If they haven't been used, they atrophy.
New Hip, New Life
Hip replacement is hardly fun. But the results can be.
"Most people can't believe the pain is gone," Konstantellis says. "They can start doing things that they haven't been able to do for years. Most people see progress every week after surgery."
Most hip replacement patients can't return to high-impact sports like running, but they can play golf and do yoga.
"And sex is fine," Konstantellis says. "Just not within the first six weeks."

If its Canons "Flagship", then why is Canon adding more megapixels?
Shouldn't a "Flagship" cover all aspects if possible??
I thought the 1 series covered all aspects of photography as much as possible with the technology at hand?
They havent even delivered on their 1DX promise and already, there seems to be something better for landscape photographers?
I totally agree with you, the whole line-up messed up...

Archimedes Pharma Ltd. and its subsidiary, Archimedes Pharma U.S. Inc., have rolled out Lazanda fentanyl nasal spray to U.S. pharmacies.
Supplier News Breaks Archives
READING, England, and BEDMINSTER, N.J. – Archimedes Pharma Ltd. and its subsidiary, Archimedes Pharma U.S. Inc., have rolled out Lazanda fentanyl nasal spray to U.S. pharmacies.
The company said Monday that the Food and Drug Administration approved Lazanda on June 30, marking the first product approval for Archimedes Pharma in the United States and the first fentanyl nasal spray in the nation.
Lazanda is indicated for the management of breakthrough pain in cancer patients 18 years of age and older who are already receiving and who are tolerant to opioid therapy for their underlying persistent cancer pain.
The medication uses Archimedes' patented PecSys drug delivery system, which allows the active ingredient to be rapidly absorbed across the nasal membrane and directly into the blood stream. Lazanda is marketed as PecFent (fentanyl pectin nasal spray) in Europe, where it is currently available in six countries.
"As the first and only treatment option in the U.S. offering fentanyl through nasal administration, Lazanda provides clinically proven pain relief to adult cancer patients suffering from breakthrough pain," stated Jeffrey Buchalter, chief executive officer of Archimedes Pharma. "The availability of Lazanda also is an exciting milestone for Archimedes Pharma, as it marks our first product launch in the U.S. and represents the expansion of the brand from Europe."
Breakthrough pain is experienced by over half of cancer patients who have pain and can be debilitating and disrupt in daily living activities, according to Archimedes. Unlike the constant background pain many cancer patients experience, breakthrough pain is an intense, excruciating pain with rapid onset and relatively short duration, and it occurs despite taking opioid therapy for background pain, the company said.
"Even though the incidence of breakthrough pain is high in cancer patients, it is often not correctly identified nor reported," commented Nash Gabrail, M.D., of the Gabrail Cancer Center and clinical investigator for Lazanda. "If reported, it is typically managed by either increasing the dose of background opioids or giving an additional dose of a short-acting oral opioid, neither of which is optimal therapy. Lazanda, with its rapid and controlled availability, can provide pain relief with an onset of action and duration of effect that addresses the time course of a typical breakthrough pain episode."
Lazanda is available through a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) program, which is intended to minimize the risk of misuse, abuse, addiction, overdose, and serious complications due to medication errors. Under the Lazanda REMS program, pharmacies, distributors and health care professionals who prescribe to outpatients are required to enroll in the program to dispense, distribute and prescribe Lazanda.

What about B.o.B.? No worries, he's at Taylor's concert
October 10, 2011
Another day, another big named star hitting the stage with Taylor Swift.
Taylor brought up rapper B.o.B. to sing his hit (?) Airplanes at her Dallas, Texas show.
This is the same B.o.B. who told Today a while back that he would like to produce a country album someday.
"I want to produce a country album for a country singer," B.o.B. told Today. "I feel like country music has a certain kind of pocket. It all sonically [comes together]. Are you ready to get satisfied sonically?"
I have a feeling this may not be the last we hear/see of B.o.B.

There are two schools of thought in men's formal fashion. One says that the best, most clever styles are the ones that excel at minimalism, while the other eschews tradition in favor of character, variety, and originality. This very unique, very creative, and entirely interesting Mardi Gras cummerbund set follows the latter school of thought by featuring a pattern of masks, beads, and other Mardi Gras staples set adrift in a sea of black. The result is celebratory and intriguing, and will make a fine choice for the gentleman who wants to do something different with his style.

Netanyahu defiant on Israeli settlements ahead of Mitchell meeting
(Read article summary)The funeral of Assaf Ramon, a young fighter pilot and son of Israel's first astronaut, has delayed Netanyahu's talk with Mitchell until Tuesday.
Bernat Armangue/AP
JERUSALEM – A key meeting between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US Middle East envoy George Mitchell to negotiate a freeze on Israeli settlements was postponed on Monday. The two men were instead to attend the funeral of a young fighter pilot who had aspired to fill the shoes of his father, Ilan Ramon, Israel's first astronaut and a national hero who was killed in the Columbia space shuttle crash in 2003.
The career of Assaf Ramon, a 21-year-old enlisted soldier, has been followed closely in Israel. His death in a F-16 fighter jet crash during training exercises on Sunday has captured the empathy of the Israeli people, pushing front-page attention away from Mr. Mitchell, a former senator and veteran peacemaker.
A large part of Mitchell's latest mission here has been to get Mr. Netanyahu to agree to a settlement freeze, which has been the most visible sticking point in Washington's attempts to bring Israeli and Palestinian leaders together to restart peace negotiations.

A recent study in The Journal of Foot and Ankle Research asserts that an increasing talar declination angle and decreasing calcaneal inclination angle are associated with decreases in ankle joint mobility in individuals with neuropathic midfoot deformity.
The study notes that researchers used goniometry and lateral view radiography to assess ankle joint mobility in three groups of patients: 20 patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy and midfoot deformity due to Charcot neuroarthropathy, 20 patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy with no deformity and 20 patients without diabetes, neuropathy or deformity.
According to the study, the association between talar declination and calcaneal inclination angles with ankle plantarflexion range of motion was strongest in participants with neuropathic midfoot deformity due to Charcot neuropathy. In addition, researchers note that Charcot neuropathy may contribute to excessive stresses and ultimately plantar ulceration of the midfoot.
Andrew Rice, DPM, FACFAS, notes these findings are consistent with the majority of his patients with neuropathic midfoot deformity. The first step in assessing such patients is to conclude that your findings are not due to acute neurotrophic changes, such as Charcot osteoarthropathy, notes Dr. Rice, an Assistant Clinical Professor in the Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation at the Yale University School of Medicine.
"I will initially manage patients (with neuropathic midfoot deformity) with a deep seated orthosis with a high medial and lateral flange shoe with stability," explains Dr. Rice. "Secondly, I will utilize an AFO or Richie Brace with soft cover for protection. Thirdly, if the ankle is very unstable, I will use a CROW walker, FROG walker or Freedom Brace (FWD Mobility)."
Regarding measures to prevent abnormal stresses in patients with neuropathic deformities, Dr. Rice recommends a variety of orthotics and walkers. In cases of acute neurotrophic changes, he recommends complete offloading.
According to Dr. Rice, podiatrists might benefit from a three-phase bone scan to help differentiate between acute changes versus chronic, slowly progressive deformities. Practitioners might also want to assess the presence of associated bony deformation, which would increase the incidence of ulceration and require surgical resection, adds Dr. Rice.
Is Arthroscopic Debridement Effective Long-Term For Osteochondral Defects?
By Brian McCurdy, Senior Editor
A recent study in the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery gives high marks to the long-term efficacy of arthroscopic debridement and bone marrow stimulation for talar osteochondral defects.
The study involved 50 patients with primary osteochondral defects who received arthroscopic debridement and bone marrow stimulation. Evaluating these patients after a mean follow-up of 12 years, researchers noted that 94 percent of patients had resumed work and 88 percent had resumed sports.
Radiographs indicated an osteoarthritis grade of 0 in 33 percent of the patients, I in 63 percent, II in 4 percent, and III in 0 percent, according to the study. The authors added that in comparison with the preoperative osteoarthritis classification, 67 percent of radiographs showed no progression and 33 percent showed progression by one grade.
Jeffrey Bowman, DPM, MS, cites several advantages to arthroscopic procedures. He notes that since the incisions are small, there is less chance of infection and in some cases, patients can walk the day of surgery or the next day. Minimal dissection also means less pain and swelling, according to Dr. Bowman, a Past President of the Texas Podiatric Medical Association.

Susceptibility to Crohn's disease, a complex inflammatory disease involving the small intestine, is controlled by over 30 loci. One Crohn's disease risk allele is in ATG16L1, a gene homologous to the essential yeast autophagy gene ATG16 (ref. 2). It is not known how ATG16L1 or autophagy contributes to intestinal biology or Crohn's disease pathogenesis. To address these questions, we generated and characterized mice that are hypomorphic for ATG16L1 protein expression, and validated conclusions on the basis of studies in these mice by analysing intestinal tissues that we collected from Crohn's disease patients carrying the Crohn's disease risk allele of ATG16L1. Here we show that ATG16L1 is a bona fide autophagy protein. Within the ileal epithelium, both ATG16L1 and a second essential autophagy protein ATG5 are selectively important for the biology of the Paneth cell, a specialized epithelial cell that functions in part by secretion of granule contents containing antimicrobial peptides and other proteins that alter the intestinal environment. ATG16L1- and ATG5-deficient Paneth cells exhibited notable abnormalities in the granule exocytosis pathway. In addition, transcriptional analysis revealed an unexpected gain of function specific to ATG16L1-deficient Paneth cells including increased expression of genes involved in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) signalling and lipid metabolism, of acute phase reactants and of two adipocytokines, leptin and adiponectin, known to directly influence intestinal injury responses. Importantly, Crohn's disease patients homozygous for the ATG16L1 Crohn's disease risk allele displayed Paneth cell granule abnormalities similar to those observed in autophagy-protein-deficient mice and expressed increased levels of leptin protein. Thus, ATG16L1, and probably the process of autophagy, have a role within the intestinal epithelium of mice and Crohn's disease patients by selective effects on the cell biology and specialized regulatory properties of Paneth cells.

"Perhaps everything terrifying is deep down a helpless thing that needs our help." Rainer Maria Rilke
"Perhaps everything terrifying is deep down a helpless thing that needs our help," Rainer Maria Rilke wrote to a friend and protégé, encouraging him to make peace with his inner demons.
It's an interesting phrase, "inner demons." We think of the demonic as being that which is evil, that which aims at our destruction. And yet I don't believe in the concept of self-sabotage.
Yes, I know, you sometimes act in ways that keep you from doing what you want to do, even when what you want to do is likely to bring your happiness. And I know, you sometimes act in ways that limit you and keep you bound to suffering, even …

Compassion is inherent to us all (Day 27)
Talking about cultivating or developing compassion can have the unfortunate side-effect of giving us the idea that compassion is something we don't have, and need to create. Actually, the words cultivate and develop are meant to imply that we already have compassion as a natural attribute, and that what we need to do is to connect with this innate compassion and make it stronger. Really, karuna bhavana is "strengthening compassion."
Compassion is part of our genetically inherited mental tool-kit. Other animals show compassion: primatologist Frans de Waal (one of my personal heroes) points out that chimpanzees take care of the sick and elderly, for example by bringing water …

When you feel like you're "not enough"
One slice of the pie of life feels relaxed and contented. And then there is that other slice, in which we feel driven and stressed. Trying to get pleasures, avoid pains, pile up accomplishments and recognitions, be loved by more people. Lose more weight, try to fill the hole in the heart. Slake the thirst, satisfy the hunger. Strive, strain, press.
This other slice is the conventional strategy for happiness. We pursue it for four reasons.

Tuning in to the love that fills and surrounds you
Take a breath right now, and notice how abundant the air is, full of life-giving oxygen offered freely by trees and other green growing things. You can't see air, but it's always available for you.
Love is a lot like the air. It may be hard to see – but it's in you and all around you.
In the press of life – dealing with hassles in personal relationships and bombarded with news of war and other conflicts – it's easy to lose sight of love, and feel you can't place your faith in it. But in fact, to summarize a comment from Ghandi, daily life is saturated with moments of …

Seek out the good news
"Tell the truth." It's the foundation of science, ethics, and relationships.
But we have a brain that evolved to tell lies to help us survive. As I've written before, over several hundred million years our ancestors:
- Had to avoid two kinds of mistakes: thinking there's a tiger in the bushes but actually all is well, and thinking all is well but actually there is a tiger about to pounce. The cost of the first mistake is needless worry while the cost of the second one is no more gene copies. Mother Nature designed us to make the first mistake a thousand times to avoid making the second mistake even once.

Don't be intimidated
On a blog at the Huffington Post, I used the example of Stephen Colbert's satirical "March to Keep Fear Alive" as a timely illustration of a larger point: humans evolved to be fearful – since that helped keep our ancestors alive – so we are very vulnerable to being frightened and even intimidated by threats, both real ones and "paper tigers." With his march, Colbert was obviously mocking those who play on fear, since we certainly don't need any new reminders to keep fear alive.
This vulnerability to feeling threatened has effects at many levels, ranging from individuals, couples, and families to schoolyards, organizations, and nations. Whether it's an individual who …

Feeding the wolf of love
I once heard a Native American teaching story in which an elder, a grandmother, was asked what she had done to become so happy, so wise, so loved and respected. She replied: "It's because I know that there are two wolves in my heart, a wolf of love and a wolf of hate. And I know that everything depends on which one I feed each day."
This story always gives me the shivers when I think of it. Who among us does not have both a wolf of love and a wolf of hate in their heart?
I know I do, including the wolf of hate, which shows up in small …

How to see people, not just our reactions to them
When we encounter someone, usually the mind automatically slots the person into a category: man, woman, your friend Tom, the kid next door, etc. Watch this happen in your own mind as you meet or talk with a co-worker, salesclerk, or family member.
In effect, the mind summarizes and simplifies tons of details into a single thing – a human thing to be sure, but one with an umbrella label that makes it easy to know how to act. For example: "Oh, that's my boss (or mother-in-law, or boyfriend, or traffic cop, or waiter) . . . and now I know what to do. Good."
This labeling process is fast, …

The practice of noticing you're alright right now
To keep our ancestors alive, the brain evolved strong tendencies toward fear, including an ongoing internal trickle of unease. This little whisper of worry keeps you scanning your inner and outer worlds for signs of trouble.
This background of unsettledness and watchfulness is so automatic that you can forget it's there. So see if you can tune into a tension, guarding or bracing in your body. Or a vigilance about your environment or other people. Or a block against completely relaxing, letting down, letting go. Try to walk through an office or store that you know is safe without a molecule of wariness; it's really hard. Or try to sit at home …

Petting your inner lizard
I've always liked lizards.
Growing up in the outskirts of Los Angeles, I played in the foothills near our home. Sometimes I'd catch a lizard and stroke its belly, so it would relax in my hands, seeming to feel at ease.
In my early 20′s, I found a lizard one chilly morning in the mountains. It was torpid and still in the cold and let me pick it up. Concerned that it might be freezing to death, I placed it on the shoulder of my turtleneck, where it clung and occasionally moved about for the rest of the day. There was a kind of wordless communication between us, in which the lizard …

These MSD Atomic EFI fuel injection systems are the perfect choice for anyone planning on converting from carburetor to fuel injection. They include a throttle body, power module (with wideband oxygen sensor), and handheld controller. The throttle body features an integral ECU built on the side, incorporating the TPS, MAP, IAT, and fuel pressure sensors, all in one location. Fuel delivery is provided by four precision 80 psi injectors featuring a stainless steel ball and seat metering method for maximum internal sealing. They also use internal fuel rails, providing a sleek appearance and removing fitting connections where leaks can develop. Atop the Atomic EFIs are annular booster rings that deliver superior atomization of the best fuel mixture, ensuring the best possible fuel delivery. Best of all, the MSD Atomic EFI fuel injection systems bolt directly to any standard square bore carbureted intake manifold and accept the same linkage as most carburetors. The 1.75 in. diameter throttle inlets ride in precision roller bearings for a smooth pedal transition. The Atomic EFIs' unique TPS is a self-calibrating, non-contact sensor, which means that you don't have to worry about configuring it during setup. The included power module is a remote mounted piece that handles all of the high-current loads. MSD's CAN-Bus technology allows for a single, clean connection between these units and the throttle body mounted ECU. Control all of the MSD Atomic EFI fuel injection systems' functions with the hand-held device. Initial setup takes about five minutes, and you'll answer six questions about your specific engine. After the initial setup is complete, the device can provide you with engine data to help you keep your engine working properly. They also feature a removable micro-SD card to record and store data so that you can see what's going on with your engine.

In 1985, at a heated auction, a 1787 bottle of Chateau Lafite Bordeaux - one of a cache of bottles unearthed in a bricked-up Paris cellar and supposedly owned by Thomas Jefferson - went for $156,000 to a member of the Forbes family. But rumors about the bottle soon arose. Why wouldn't Rodenstock reveal the exact location where it had been found? Was it part of a smuggled Nazi hoard? Or did his reticence conceal an even darker secret?

TGIF: Thoughts for the Weekend
Guess what I did last weekend / all this week? Got some sleep! (Hooray!) I have still had a few restless nights of tossing and turning but, for the most part, I'm back to getting 7-8 hours of sleep each night and waking up feeling more like a human than a zombie. It's incredible what a little extra shut-eye can do for a person; I'm smiling more, eating better, and overall just feeling good.
Unfortunately, what still hasn't changed is how much is on my mind. The one downside of no longer writing this blog anonymously is the fact that I don't feel like I can share anything and everything that is happening in my life. I'm dreaming up big dreams, having second thoughts, and doing things I would love to share… but I can't. At least not yet. Hopefully that will change soon.
So, why am I telling you all this? Because I feel like I have been seriously neglecting this blog. I know I'm still writing once/week, tracking my spending, etc. but I hate that I can't share all of the big ideas that are rolling around in my brain. Or the reasons I can't sleep. And it's all stopping me from being able to write the posts I normally do. Heck, I can barely finish a draft about how my Kobo is saving my budget…
Anyway, this week's been busy but good: I was interviewed by Bryan Borzykowski for a story he's writing for the Toronto Star, I had a follow-up chat about an interview I did for the Star back in the fall, and I spent a couple hours with two lovely ladies from The Globe and Mail, shooting a video about my blog and some of the ways I save money. And then they followed me as I grocery shopped! Fun stuff.
And now… well, I actually don't have any plans this weekend, other than to get a ton of writing done. I've promised a few posts to someone that I would like to deliver by the end of this month, and I'd love to get past this case of writer's block I'm dealing with.
Other goals for this weekend:
- Finish reading Bossypants
- Finish the second season of Sons of Anarchy
- Meal plan / grocery shop for next week
What do you have planned for this weekend?
Can't wait to see your Globe and Mail video :) Have a great weekend Cait!
January 25, 2013 -
"Bossypants" is a great book! My plan this weekend is to take it slooowwww. I have had busy evenings this week and will next week, as well, so I am going to take this weekend and read, go for a hike with the boyfriend, make some soap, and meet a new house-sitting client! Very much looking forward to the amount of free time that is left!
January 25, 2013 -
I've been bad with getting a good sleep this week. I need to work on that! Have a great weekend.
January 25, 2013 -
Glad to hear you've been sleeping more soundly! Week-end plans are to head to the beach. Finally! Enjoy your week-end :)

Happy to see that you are slowly getting more sleep, although you mention that you still have reasons for not getting all the sleep that you would wish. I understand how you have valid reasons for not sharing these with your blog readers, along with other personal things, at the moment. I would therefore suggest that you still write all these things down – but keep them private to yourself. The simple act of just writing these things down may help to get them off your mind a bit and help you to relax more.
As to my weekend plans – go out to do the grocery shopping. I have more time now that I'm retired and my wife says that I always seem to be able buy more for less $$ than she ever could ! :-)
After that I think that I'll just relax inside (out of the cold) all weekend, reading some freebie stuff on my Kindle ereader.
Enjoy your weekend.
January 25, 2013 -
You going to post the video once it's aired? I love that book btw! Tina is my girl crush! I told a few people about my blog too, one being a friend and producer I worked with and we had a falling out. Now I can't write what I really want to write about it.
January 25, 2013 -
Would writing all those things on your mind down in a private journal help (if you don't' already)? I know there are a few very ranting posts in my drafts folder that should never see the light of day, but significantly helped me form my thoughts into something more suitable for the Internet public.
Also, SoA Season 2 finale is one of my favourite episodes of TV ever. :)
January 25, 2013 -
I would suggest still writing your ideas down, you can always write a blog post and never publish it. It would get your thoughts out of your head and it would be there waiting for you if you decided to publish it later.
Take care of yourself.
MorgaineJanuary 25, 2013 -
*ahem* You still owe me an email…I've been watching my inbox every day.
J has just started Sons of Anarchy and he is OBSESSED. I think he's only on season 1, episode 5. It doesn't look like my type of show. Although I did get him watching Downton Abbey after the first season, so maybe it's my turn to watch something I don't think I'll like. Now I can't watch Downton without him or he'll throw a fit. Hah.
This weekend – dinner tonight with some friends at an English pub, and then my cousin comes to PDX to visit Saturday through Tuesday. She's never been out to visit so we're super excited to show her the city. Lots of restaurants in the near future…
January 25, 2013 -
I think you're doing a great job of balancing being "all out" and keeping things to yourself, especially since finance and money are such personal parts of our lives. I struggle with feeling like I share too much, too. It's probably why I don't blog as often as others would like me to. Do what feels right to you. People will read whatever you put out there because it's good, interesting content!
