"Close by Sunnyside is one of those marvellous villages with which America abounds: it has sprung up like a mushroom, and bears
the name of Irvington, in compliment to the late master of Sunnyside. . . . One of the most picturesque of the station-houses upon
the Hudson River Railway is there, and a ferry connects with the village of Piermont. Morning and evening, when the trains depart
for and arrive from New York, many handsome vehicles may be seen there. This all seems like the work of magic. Over this beautiful
slope, where so few years ago the voyager upon the Hudson saw only woodlands and cultivated fields, is now a populous town."
Benson J. Lossing, The Hudson From the Wilderness to the Sea (Published 1866)
Join us on March 13th to hear Captain John Lipscomb shares his
experiences and scientific discoveries. Captain Lipscomb travels approximately 5,000 nautical miles each year, from March through
December, along the Hudson River from New York Harbor to Troy
searching out and deterring polluters, monitoring tributaries and waterfront facilities, providing support for scientific studies,
and taking regional decisions makers out on the river so that "the river has a chance to advocate for itself."
Captain Lipscomb
grew up in Irvington and Tarrytown, completed three Transatlantic Crossings (and one Trans Pacific) and has worked to produce
numerous documentaries for National Geographic and others. His research and finding are key to the river's health, sustainability and future.

Teenager cited in Plainfield home invasion
PLAINFIELD — Vermont State Police say an Essex Junction teen broke into a Plainfield home early Tuesday.
State police say Philip Hoeppner, 64, was at home on Cameron Road when he heard a noise inside his house. When Hoeppner yelled to see what the noise was, he heard a loud crash and the door to his residence opening. State police say a passer-by told Hoeppner a male juvenile had been seen running from the house into a wooded area.
Police say items had been tampered with and a piece of jewelry taken.
The juvenile was later found with the assistance of police dogs and cited on a burglary charge.
The teen, whose name has not been released, is to be arraigned in Washington County criminal court in Barre on Oct. 17.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER The Vermont House has advanced a wide-ranging bill that pushes utilities other than...

Headlines December 23, 2008 Full Show | First Story >
US to Fund Afghan Militias
The Wall Street Journal reports the United States is planning to start funding local Afghan militias to fight the Taliban in remote parts of Afghanistan. The first US-funded militias will be established in Wardak Province in eastern Afghanistan. The plan is based on a similar model used in Iraq. If the effort in Wardak is successful, US commanders hope to create more militias in other parts of Afghanistan in early 2009. The militia push is controversial. Afghan President Hamid Karzai vetoed an earlier American proposal to create local militias, because he feared they might one day fall under the sway of regional warlords. Canadian Defense Minister Peter MacKay has publicly opposed the initiative saying it would be counterproductive.
Government Accused of Entrapment in Fort Dix Terror Case
A federal jury in New Jersey has convicted five Muslim immigrants of conspiracy to kill US military personnel. Prosecutors claimed the men were plotting to kill US soldiers at Fort Dix or another military base. Defense attorneys argued the men were entrapped by a pair of paid government informants. Faten Shnewer, the mother of one of the men, Mohamad Shnewer, talked to reporters after the verdict and said her son was set up. The five Muslim men were arrested in May 2007 after two of the men tried to buy automatic weapons from an FBI informant. The same informant had helped scout out military installations for attack, offered to introduce the men to an arms dealer and gave them a list of weapons he could procure, including machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades. The five men face life in prison.
Bailed-Out Banks Can't Account for Gov't Funds
The Associated Press has revealed that many of the nation's largest banks are claiming they can't track how they're using the billions of dollars they have received in aid from US taxpayers. The Associated Press contacted twenty-one banks that received at least $1 billion in government money and asked four questions: How much has been spent? What was it spent on? How much is being held in savings? And what's the plan for the rest? None of the banks provided specific answers. When Congress approved the massive bailout, it attached nearly no strings to the money, and the Treasury Department never asked the banks how it would be spent.
Iraq Delays Vote on Allowing Non-US Troops to Stay in Iraq
The Iraqi Parliament has delayed a vote on a resolution to allow British and other non-US forces to stay in the country beyond December 31, when the UN mandate expires. If an interim resolution is not passed before then, non-US troops would have no legal right to remain in Iraq. Britain still has about 4,000 troops in Iraq. It plans to withdraw all but 400 of its troops from Iraq by the end of July.
Lawyer: Journalist Will Not Apologize for Shoe-Throwing Incident
The Iraqi journalist who threw his shoes at President Bush last week said through his lawyer that he will not apologize for his actions. Muntadhar al-Zaidi has been held in prison for over a week. His attorney said al-Zaidi has been subjected to repeated beatings in jail. He has internal bleeding in his left eye, as well as bruises over his face and stomach. On Monday, White House spokesperson Tony Fratto was asked about the treatment of Muntadhar al-Zaidi.
Journalist: "Tony, on another subject, is the White House at all concerned about reports by the brother of this Iraqi journalist who is being held for throwing his shoes at the President? His brother says, in visiting the journalist in jail, he sees signs he's been tortured, missing a tooth, cigarette burns on his ears."
Tony Fratto: "He's in the hands of the Iraqi system. I don't have anything more on the shoe thrower. I think it's been explored extensively, and I have nothing new for you."
Europeans May Take Guantanamo Prisoners
The Washington Post reports European nations have begun intensive discussions both within and among their governments on whether to resettle prisoners from the US military prison at Guantanamo Bay as an overture to the incoming Obama administration. At least half-a-dozen countries are considering resettlement, but only Germany and Portugal have publicly acknowledged it. Meanwhile, China said today it wants Chinese detainees at Guantanamo Bay to be returned to China if Guantanamo is closed. The US is holding seventeen Uyghurs — Muslims from western China. The seventeen have been cleared for release, but Washington fears they could be mistreated or even tortured if they are turned over to China. China says the seventeen men belong to an outlawed group, the East Turkestan Islamic Movement.
Military Seizes Power in Guinea After Death of President
In news from Africa, the military in Guinea has taken control of the mineral-rich West African country hours after the death of President Lansana Conte. Conte had ruled Guinea since 1984. Following his death, the army announced that it has dissolved the country's government and suspended the constitution.
Doctors Without Borders Lists World's Worst Humanitarian Crises
Doctors Without Borders has released its annual list of the world's ten worst humanitarian crises. The list focuses on the massive forced civilian displacements, violence and unmet medical needs in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Somalia, Iraq, Sudan and Pakistan, along with neglected medical emergencies in Burma and Zimbabwe. Also included in the list is the lack of global attention to the growing prevalence of HIV-tuberculosis co-infection and the critical need for increased global efforts to prevent and treat childhood malnutrition — the underlying cause of death for up to five million children per year.
Groups Sue EPA Over Mountaintop Mining Rules
A coalition of environmental groups has sued the Bush administration in an attempt to stop the Environmental Protection Agency from changing a rule that will make it easier for mountaintop mining companies to dump their waste near rivers and streams. Judith Petersen of Kentucky Waterways Alliance said, "The notion that coal mining companies can dump their wastes in streams without degrading them is a fantasy that the Bush administration is now trying to write into law." The new rules overhaul a twenty-five-year-old prohibition that has sparked legal and regulatory battles for years.
No Charges Yet Against Student Who Disrupted Gas & Oil Auction in Utah
In Utah, the US attorney's office in Salt Lake City said Monday it has not decided yet whether to prosecute a University of Utah student who disrupted a controversial federal oil- and gas-lease auction Friday by posing as a bidder and buying nearly 22,000 acres of public land near Arches and Canyonlands national parks. The student, Tim DeChristopher, appeared in court on Monday, but no charges were filed. A spokeswoman for the US attorney's office said, "It will take time to evaluate evidence and make a determination whether we will prosecute." On Monday, Tim DeChristopher told Democracy Now! he is ready to go to jail.
Tim DeChristopher: "I've seen the need for more serious action by the environmental movement and to protect a livable future for all of us. I've seen that need for a long time. And frankly, I've been hoping that someone would step up and someone would come out and be the leader and someone would put themselves on the line and make the sacrifices necessary to get us on a path to a more livable future. And I guess I just couldn't wait any longer for that someone to come out there and had to accept the fact that that someone might be me."
Chico Mendes Honored on 20th Anniversary of His Murder
In Brazil, President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva paid tribute to environmentalist Chico Mendes on Monday on the twentieth anniversary of his murder. Mendes was one of the world's most prominent defenders of the Amazon Rainforest. He was murdered on December 22, 1988 by ranchers opposed to his activism. Since his death, more than 1,100 activists and other rain forest defenders have been killed in Brazil. A new study by Brazil's Catholic Land Commission has found that hundreds of Brazilian human rights and environmental activists still face the threat of assassination because of their fight against a coalition of loggers, farmers and cattle ranchers.
Pope: Homosexuality Could Lead to Self-Destruction of Human Race
At the Vatican, Pope Benedict XVI has said that saving humanity from homosexual or transsexual behavior is just as important as saving the rain forest from destruction. The Pope warned that gender theory blurred the distinction between male and female and could thus lead to the "self-destruction" of the human race.
Pope Benedict XVI: "We need something like human ecology, meant in the right way. The Church speaks of human nature as 'man' or 'woman' and asks that this order is respected. This is not out-of-date metaphysics. It comes from the faith in the Creator and from listening to the language of creation, despising which would mean self-destruction for humans and therefore a destruction of the work itself of God."
Lesbian and gay Christians have denounced Pope Benedict's comments. The Rev. Sharon Ferguson of the Lesbian and Gay Christian Movement described the Pope's remarks as "totally irresponsible and unacceptable in any shape or form." Ferguson said, "It is comments like that that justify homophobic bullying that goes on in schools, and it is comments like that that justify gay bashing."
NYT Publishes Fake Letter to Editor
And the New York Times has apologized after publishing a fake letter to the editor Monday signed by the mayor of Paris denouncing Caroline Kennedy's bid to fill Hillary Clinton's Senate seat. The Times said the letter was a fake and that it was reviewing its procedures to verify letters.

Sources from Samsung's warehouse facility apparently told tech website AmongTech that the Galaxy Gear smartwatch will have a 2.5-inch 320 x 320 resolution OLED display, a 10-hour battery life, 1GB of memory and either 6GB or 8GB of data storage.
The device is also said to have an integrated camera with a 4 megapixel sensor and which is capable of recording video in 720p, and is supposedly powered by Android Jelly Bean (it's unclear at this time if the version will be Android 4.1 or 4.2).
Earlier this week, Samsung exec Lee Young-Hee confirmed that the Galaxy Gear smartwatch will debut at the IFA tech exhibition in Berlin, Germany on September 4. TabTimes will be reporting live from the show.

I have a script which allows me to crop images using jcrop.
To achieve that, I have to upload an image from my computer using the input type file
. I want to extend the functionalities of my application, allowing the users to select photos from their facebook albuns, this code is working, but it returns me the URL of the image.
From the URL I create an image object like this
var oImage = document.getElementById('preview');
But this is an image object and not a file object which will not allow me to get some file proprieties like oImage.size
and oImage.type
The original code is this
<input type="file" name="image_file" id="image_file" onchange="fileSelectHandler()" />
And the javascript code
function fileSelectHandler() {
var oFile = $('#image_file')[0].files[0];
Now I have a function which the callback is a Facebook image URL, and I want it to work just like if I had uploaded the image from my computer, because this input type file gets submited to server.
var oImage = document.getElementById('preview');
oImage.src = photo.source;
Where photo.source
is my URL.
So my question is: How to convert a URL to a file type using javascript/ajax? I need to put that type into a file input as well because this is a form that is going to be submited. Thanks in advance.

Being that this site is an Android native...why is thirty not an app? I risk getting busted at work having to type it into the browser everytime lol.
Basically I want to be sneaky at work and have a mobile app for ROD. Kind of like if you had a google+ or facebook app on your phone.. Click it and it takes you straight to the forum. Why don't we have one? lol
Apps take a lot of work to make as far as I know. I'm not sure how your phone works, but I know on the iPhone you can make bookmarks on your browser (which I do) as well as make an icon to take you to internet links (which means I can basically have a button to click on my springboard that takes me right to the site), so it might be possible to do that.
Shoot, that's WAY beyond my capabilities. If I could make apps, I wouldn't be working for a living. We are, however, partnered with Tapatalk. That's why this forum is Android native. I had to add some script and upload some files to my server to become part of their network, but it's there. You can use Tapatalk to get on real quick, I suppose. I think it's like a $3.00 app. http://www.tapatalk.com/mobile.php For Droid: https://market.android.com/details?id=c ... o.activity
Yeah, that too. I have a shortcut to this site on the homepage of my Epic 4G. . . . . . which is epic, by the way.
I use Tapatalk for this and several other forums I am on. It's great, makes forum browsing on your phone so much easier. Well worth the $2 or $3 to get it.

Immigration Crisis Could Reach CharlotteCHARLOTTE, NC -- The immigration crisis is exploding at the US border, and the impact could soon be felt in Charlotte. The backlog of pending immigration cases is at an all-time high, and the number of cases involving children is alarming. California, Texas and New York have the largest backlog. The immigration court in Charlotte has a significantly smaller load, but that might change without action from Washington. "An immigration reform means lets get on the table, let's talk about it. Let's see who would be the best candidates," said Zhenia Martinez of Action NC. "Mr. Obama needs to enforce the laws that are on the books. We need to secure our borders, and Mr. Obama hasn't chosen to do that," said Rep. Robert Pittenger. |

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Cruising for sex, or cruising, is walking or driving about a locality in search of a sex partner, usually of the anonymous, casual, one-time variety.[1][2] The term is also used when technology is used to find casual sex, such as using an Internet site or a telephone service.[3][4]
In a specifically sexual context, the term "cruising" originally emerged as an argot "code word" in gay slang, by which those "in the know" would understand the speaker's unstated sexual intent, whereas most heterosexuals, on hearing the same word in the same context, would normally misread the speaker's intended meaning in the word's more common (and presumably less threatening) nonsexual sense. This served (and in some contexts, still serves) as a protective sociolinguistic mechanism for gay men to recognize not only each other, but those who may wish to do them harm in broader societies noted for their homophobia.[citation needed]
In the latter half of the twentieth century, decriminalization of homosexual behaviour increasingly became the norm in English-speaking countries.[citation needed] The protective barrier once provided by the term "cruising" as a "code word" has therefore largely broken down and, arguably, become increasingly irrelevant. Thus the specifically sexual meaning of the term has passed into common usage to include the sexual behavior of heterosexual persons, as well.[citation needed]
Public health officials have noted that cruising locations are frequented by men who have sex with men, but do not identify with being homosexual or bisexual, who are closeted, married, or in relationships with women, do not date men or frequent gay bars, clubs or websites, or have otherwise no other way of meeting men for sex.[5]
As with all argot, regional variants abound. In the United States, the term "cruising" continues to predominantly denote exclusively homosexual behaviour. In Australia and the United Kingdom, however, it is used by both homosexuals and heterosexuals to describe their own behaviour, as witnessed in the common male heterosexual derivative phrase "cruising for chicks".[6][7][8]
The term has been enshrined since at least the mid-1970s in the name of the gay bar Foxes Booze 'n' Cruise, located on Historic US Highway 66 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Before closing, the business came under criticism for allegedly encouraging drunk driving by some who did not understand the term's historic usage, but the name and the sign remain a conscious reminder of gay history.
The term has also been adopted, in an altered form, by the website qruiser.com, an online LGBT community based in Sweden. This is a tongue in cheek reference, however, as the community functions as a forum for social interaction for the Scandinavian region, rather than focusing on exclusively sexual encounters. The website has attracted many heterosexual members as well.
Cruising for sex is alluded to in songs such as "Cruisin' the Streets" by the Boys Town Gang as well as "I'm a Cruiser" by the Village People. In 1980, director William Friedkin made the movie Cruising, starring Al Pacino. The film introduced many audiences to homosexual activities and the linguistic codes used for them, but gay rights groups perceived a negative depiction of the gay community in the film and protested its production.

NBA draft: Raptors looking to end second-round skid
GM Masai Ujiri knows full well Toronto's second-round pick history is bleak.
CHICAGO—It is not only the 20th pick in June's NBA draft that intrigues Raptors general manager Masai Ujiri as he surveys the talent at the league's combine here.
He has his eye on the 37th pick as well.
The second round of the draft has historically been a barren wasteland for the Raptors, who have yet to groom a long-term second-round pick of their own.
The Raptors are trying to come up with a list of at least a half-dozen players they think would be suitable for the 20th pick, and are trying to narrow down a list for that 37th pick.
It's a commonly held theory that a growing and improving team needs to unearth at least one good second-round player every three or four years, and Ujiri knows full well Toronto's second-round pick history is bleak.
Arguably the best player the organization got in the second round was Matt Bonner, and he was obtained in a trade.
The draft combine is chock-full of players who might fall to 37th, giving Ujiri and his staff more work than usual to do, watching drills and conducting in-person interviews.
TALK TALK: The Raptors will use nearly their full allotment of 18 individual interview sessions at the draft combine and are not limiting themselves to just potential 20th picks.
According to individual players and league sources, Toronto will meet with a majority of the top-10 picks over a two-day period.
Included in that group are Mississauga's Nik Stauskas, Tyler Ennis of Brampton — both expected to be lottery picks — as well as highly touted prospects Australian guard Dante Exum, Oklahoma State guard Marcus Smart and Indiana power forward-centre Noah Vonleh.
It's unlikely the Raptors will be able to move up into the top 10 in the draft, but getting a chance to meet with top prospects without having to try and entice them to Toronto for workouts allows them to do research they might not otherwise be able to do.
PENNY PINCHER: Nik Stauskas said most of his interviews with teams were pretty straight-forward — they were interested in background, interests and personality. Except one.
"I was interviewing with Minnesota and it was a pretty serious interview, and out of nowhere they asked how many pennies are in a million dollars. It caught me off guard a little bit," the Mississauga guard said.
Did he have a quick answer?
"A hundred million. Of course."

Norton moves ahead with Assessment Equalization Board
NORTON — Norton City Council approved appointments to a new board designated to hear objections to assessments for the sewer project in Nash Heights during the Nov. 11 meeting.
The Assessment Equalization Board will hear objections relating to the construction of the Nash Heights Sanitary Sewer Improvements-East Phase Project and make recommendations to Council for their consideration and official rulings.
At the Oct. 28 meeting, Mayor Mike Zita presented Council members with a list of names he recommended for the Assessment Equalization Board. The individuals he recommended included: Ron Schaffer, Mark Spicer and Donna Rizor Longfellow, with Lance Apple as an alternate.
At the Oct. 28 meeting, Councilwoman Charlotte Whipkey (at large) had said she was uncomfortable with one of the names suggested for this board and asked if more people could be considered.
Councilman Todd Bergstrom (Ward 1) asked at the Oct. 28 meeting if more information could be provided about the candidates before a decision was made.
Prior to the Nov. 11 meeting, Zita provided Council members with responses to a brief survey he asked all of the candidates to take. The questions asked had been discussed at an earlier work session and were to help Council members find out more about the candidates and why they wanted to be on the board.
Whipkey told Council she had a name she wanted to add to the list of potential candidates, Shelly Leach to replace Schaffer. Unfortunately, due to some miscommunication, Leach was unable to fill out the survey as the others had, according to city officials.
Whipkey moved to amend the ordinance to name Spicer, David Anderson and Leach to the board, and to keep Apple as the alternate. Anderson was nominated after Longfellow stepped down.
Council members voted 5-1 in favor of this amendment and the ordinance, with Councilman John Conklin (Ward 4) casting the only dissenting vote. Councilman Bill Mowery (Ward 3) was not present.
"I think we have a board that will serve in the best interest of the people," Bergstrom said.
According to Council Clerk Karla Richards, she has provided residents in the Nash Heights area with their estimated assessments for the project, and five homeowners have responded and asked for a meeting before the board to determine if their assessments for the sewer project are fair and accurate. Now that the board has been established, Richards said she will contact the parties and set up meeting dates and times. After the board has heard the homeowners' cases, they will make a recommendation to Council members for the final decision.
Council also approved an ordinance to amend the nonbargaining salary rate for the Council clerk with a vote of 6-0 and the administrative assistant with a vote of 5-1, with Whipkey casting the only 'no' vote.
"I think this person would be getting too much for the work that is being produced," she said. "I don't support this."
With approval, the pay for both positions will increase $2 an hour, retroactive to the first pay in January 2013, according to the legislation.
In other business, Council:
- approved a resolution of appreciation for the service of Bergstrom as a City Council member. He did not run for re-election Nov. 5.
"It has been a pleasure to work with you," said Council President Don Nicolard (Ward 2). "You have done a wonderful job as Council member"; - approved an ordinance to amend the 2013 budget with a vote of 6-0. Council also heard a presentation for the 2014 budget, which will be discussed in further detail at next week's meeting. Nicolard urged residents to contact Finance Director Laura Starosta if they have any questions about the proposed budget; and
- heard a first reading for an ordinance regarding a shared service agreement among Norton, Barberton and Copley Township for the Southwest Summit Council of Governments Board. If the ordinance is passed by the two cities and township, the board would be able to spend funds for equipment for a shared dispatch center between the three communities, according to city officials. According to Zita, if approved, the service would be up and running in January.
Council next will meet for a work session Nov. 18 and for its regular meeting Nov. 25, both at 7 p.m., in Council Chambers at the Safety-Administration Building, 4060 Columbia Woods Drive.

Is it wrong to have loved Crash Bandicoot back in the day? If it is, we'll just have to settle for being wrong ... but we will say that this news seems to have come out of nowhere. We're not going to ask any awkward questions about Sony (that would be the big elephant in the room here), but instead, we'll just quietly raise an eyebrow and hope that this game brings a fun and frenetic experience to Nintendo systems.
There's also a hint of DS-Wii functionality here, and even if Crash himself doesn't excite you, perhaps that will. According to a Spanish gaming magazine, Crash of the Titans will hit shelves in October, though we're guessing that's a European date.

Netflix continues to outpace Amazon.com's subscription-video service on the content-licensing front, delivering substantially more of the top 50 movies and top 75 TV shows from the last few years, according to an analysis by Piper Jaffray & Co.
"Relative to Amazon... Netflix is still leading by a wide margin," Piper Jaffray senior research analyst Michael Olson wrote in a note Wednesday.
Of the 75 top-rated television shows over the last four seasons, Netflix currently offers 32% and Amazon's Prime Instant Video has 12%.
On movies, Netflix provides more recent titles -- with 10 of the 50 box-office leaders from 2013, versus three for Amazon -- while Amazon's library includes more top movies that are two years old, according to the report. Of the top 50 movies for each of the last three years, Netflix has 12%, Redbox Instant by Verizon has 7%, Amazon Prime has 6% and Hulu Plus has 1%, Piper Jaffray found.
Meanwhile, Hulu's subscription service delivers nearly three times as many recent top-rated shows as Netflix. Hulu Plus has 57% of the top 75 series from the 2013-'14 season, compared with 20% for Netflix and 9% for Amazon.
Hulu is owned by Disney, 21st Century Fox and NBCUniversal, and was originally formed to let their respective networks deliver catch-up online viewing of their primetime shows. "While definitely a competitor, we view Hulu as increasingly less of a direct threat as Netflix focuses on original content," Olson said.
SEE ALSO: Netflix to Focus on Adding Higher-Rated and Exclusive Titles, CFO Says
Piper Jaffray based its analysis on annual box-office revenue for movies and full-season ratings for TV shows (excluding sports such as NBC's "Sunday Night Football"). Reps for Amazon and Netflix declined to comment on the report.
There's no question that Netflix, by stocking more hit shows and movies, would to some degree appeal to a wider base of consumers than Amazon's service.
But Netflix hasn't decisively won the SVOD war: Amazon remains aggressive in looking for exclusive TV licensing deals to expand its 40,000-plus title Prime Instant Video service.
The e-commerce company reached a deal this spring with HBO for older seasons of hit shows, which is worth at least $200 million, according to analyst estimates. Amazon also cut a Fox deal to snatch exclusive streaming rights to "24" away from Netflix, and has a novel pact with CBS to stream episodes of "Under the Dome" and "Extant" four days after they air. And, like Netflix, Amazon Studios is building a steady pipeline of original shows.
And in fact, Netflix's library of top TV shows from the past four seasons declined 2% from June 2013 to June 2014, whereas Amazon increased its count of those shows by 5%. Olson speculated that Netflix's library of top TV shows and movies will contract as the company boosts spending on original programming, which he said was "a prudent strategy assuming ongoing ability to create hits."
But Netflix CFO David Wells, speaking at an investor conference in May, said the company will "continue to expand the content library meaningfully" with a greater emphasis on licensing exclusive and "four- and five-star content."
Piper Jaffray maintains a "neutral" rating on Netflix based on valuation, with Olson adding that "we have confidence in ability for Netflix to achieve near-term estimates." On Tuesday Netflix stock hit an all-time high after Goldman Sachs' Heath Terry upgraded the stock (from "hold" to "buy") based on international growth expectations and the streamer's acquisition of kids' programming.

Secrets of Success
bone stimulator!!!
View SOFT_VAL67's Sparkpage
View All Blog Entries from SOFT_VAL67
Friday, April 12, 2013
Things didnt go as I had hoped today at the Ortho visit.
It wasnt all bad.
The foot isnt any worse, the bone hasnt seperated anymore than it had.
But, its not growing back, or healing in a timely manner.
It has been a full 3 months. And at this point, the callus or cartiledge should have closed the gap, or filled in between my foot and the broken off piece of bone.
The callus is forming, but its still too soft at this point.
So, the next step is to continue the high doses of vitamin d. And soon, in about a week I will get an appointment made to begin electromagnetic bone stimulation. Bone stimulator as the doctor called it, in the only real positive part of the day, my friends and I shared a good chuckle at that title...(dirty joke inserted here).....
And I am unsure how long that will continue or how often I will have to do this.
I go back to the doctor again in June.
He isnt going to do a repeat lab on my vitamin d until June.
He didnt give me all bad news.
He told me that if I feel that my foot isnt hurting too much, I can try walking.
He said maybe I can start with about 20 minutes once or twice a week. And if my foot isnt hurting then I can continue that until I come back to see him.
If, he says, the foot is bothering me, then I shouldnt walk on it. I can stop wearing the boot unless I begin to feel pain and today, when he touched the area where its broke, there was some pain and thru out the evening its been hurting.
So, I am going to wait to see if the foot is no longer sore on Monday, and I might give that walk a try.
I am feeling defeated, even with that bit of news, due to the fact that I know 20 minutes twice a week, isnt going to give me any kind of calorie burn to help me get back to losing weight.
But, I know it will help me to ease back into my walking.
The doctor didnt seem to optimistic about it and part of me wonders if he simply said yes to my question about walking, because deep down he suspects the bone isnt going to really heal on its own and that surgery will eventually be required!!!
I am just sick of it all!!!
I am sick of the injustice my friend has had to endure and I am sick of my body doing this to me!!!
I was being good to my body, I was eating healthy and walking and drinking water and taking my vitamins, so why wasnt my body absorbing the vitamins?
Why did my body rebel against my attempt to make it healthier???
Why is all of this happening to me and why is it happening during the most stressful time in my life??
I feel so overwhelmed and almost like just going back to being a big fat lazy slug sitting on the couch with a damn cookie in my hand!!!
I mean afterall, why try when the body obviously doesnt care.
Well, I guess that is just stinkin thinkin and the only thing I can do is workout in other ways and walk what little bit I can.
At least I will be outside in the sunshine for 20 mins and maybe if the freakin wind ever dies down around here I can actually get warm and enjoy it!!!
So, I guess thats the update, not much of one.
My body just refuses to heal itself....maybe now that some of the stress is behind me I can focus more on just exercising with my stretch band and recumbant bike and weights.
And maybe 8 weeks will make some difference for the positive.

Sorry it wasn't the best news. We can only start from where we are, not where we wish we were, so you will find a way if you want it badly enough. Maybe a nice water hole for swimming or some other fun exercise while you treat your foot with the care it will need. Slow healing is still healing, right? Don't give up.

I'm so sorry your news wasn't better.
The weather is getting warmer (slowly)
Maybe it's a good year for gardening
Or bike riding
And swimming
Keep taking care of yourself and hopefully your body will start to heal
