Wearing MBT Shoes for the first time? Watch the MBT Shoes Instructional Video
This is a great shoe. Mid weight socks would be best for this shoe due to the inner lining on the inside back of shoe digging into my foot with thinner socks.
I've been wearing these for 4 months now. Took a bit of time to get used to the "rocking" feel. Otherwise so comfortable. Moderately light weight. Great overall support. No "break in" time needed.
Love shoes , comfortable, like walking on pillows, legs never tired.I have always loved mbt.
I've been wearing Kelso earth shoes for my 12 hour shifts as a nurse. My feet and legs were TIRED! I decided to give these a try and I am BEYOND PLEASED. I now wear my earth shoes to ride my bike to work and cannot wait to get my feet into my MBT's. My legs feel energized despite that I'm walking and standing almost my entire shift!
I've been wearing only MBT's for many years now and have accumulated well over a dozen different pairs. If you take care of them, they will last forever! Over the years, the styles and colors have really started to open up. The Maliza in Navy is a striking combination on screen and did not disappoint when seen in person. GORGEOUS! A jewel for your feet! They are as true to fit as I have ever gotten and feel great right out of the box! They are dressy enough for slacks and casual enough for jeans. You really should have a pair of these in your wardrobe.
This shoe fits great and is very comfortable. Another poster commented that the tongue was annoying. Yes, the tongue is stiff, HOWEVER it is leather and can be tweaked. For a couple of nights I bent the tongue back into a medium sized paper binder clip, which worked very well since the tongue now bends up a bit and away from my ankle. Weird that MBT would make the tongue that way, but as long as it is something I can easliy fix then I'm very happy. These are my favorite MBT's and I wear them a lot.
Bought these beautiful shoes as all rounders for a trip to rainy England in October where leather will be more functional. Comfortable for walking, around town and going out in general. MBT's are practically the only shoes I can wear with comfort due to metatarsal arthritis and these are no exception. They will allow me to go out for an hour walk everyday pain free.
Good all-around shoe, very versatile. I noticed that the toe box is more narrow than in many other mbts, which made it a little uncomfortable for me. Also, the tongue kept poking the top of my foot and that was annoying. Given a break-in period, that problem might be alleviated.

"Working for 40 years as an electrician, took it's toll on my ability to enjoy recreational activities. Walking is an activity that causes pain for me. Any step that is not carefully guided, causes a shock wave to travel through my titainium knees (both were replaced after I left the work force) and up to the 3 fused vertebrae in my neck. The result is instant pain that could last for day's. M.B.T, shoes, have literally changed my life !!!! I can now walk as well as anyone!!! I can even run, a short distance if I need too. Walking around the block with my grandchildren is an activity I can do again! There is no secret around my house as to why I can now enjoy all the activities being able to walk, has brought back to my life! It's the MBT's!!!! Thank you! Footwearetc. for introducing me to M.B.T. shoes!!!! The SOFT touch down I have now with each footstep is nothing less than a miricle for me! I feel like a normal person again!!, From my heart , THANK YOU, Footwearetc ,THANK YOU!"

Quantum theory and Truth
I think this parallels the enduring human drive to search for Truth. There may or may not be an absolute Truth, but it is wrong to think we can discover Truth or understand what Truth is. Science, philosophy and religion are merely our endeavors to see what we can say about Truth.
Cells or Selves?
I am both excited and worried about the recent enthusiasm for precision medicine (PM)
My ideal health care organization
When I envision the ideal health care organization, I picture six characteristics.
Why bother?
A professional colleague asked me during a recent conversation bemoaning how hard it was to do quality primary care, why I bothered to keep pushing for change in the face of so much evidence that it was pointless. I told her, what we put up with is what we end up with.
I asked, why don't you push back and demand change if you are so unhappy about the way things are? Because I watch you and see that it is pointless, she said.
Sink or swim
The wave of the future is bringing game-changing cultural shifts in patient awareness and expectations. These are paralleled (and fed) by paradigm changing technologies. Clinicians and medical institutions will sink or swim depending on how well they ride these waves.
Those who choose the comfort of the familiar and predictable, who sit safely on the beach while they watch and wait, who allow others to build the future, these late adopters will ultimately be forced to enter the water. I predict they will never catch up, and will struggle merely to survive.
Are you a swimmer? Are you in the water, making waves? Or are you the audience, seeing life and health care as spectator sports?
The Ten Commandments of Therapeutics
I found a wonderful article by Udkin, Dreger and Sousa, and have updated and adapted it. See below the fold…
It's not as easy as you think...
I found a snippet in my Evernote file, sadly without anything citing a source. I have adapted it to fit my experience with Clinical Quality Improvement activities. I suspect it is broadly applicable…
- It will take longer than expected.
- Not everyone will understand.
- At least one key player is not engaged.
- No matter how diligent the process, the team will miss something important.
- If everyone agrees, someone is not paying attention, or is being dishonest.
- The risk manager, lawyers, and upper level management really want to say no.
- When you are done, people will complain and you'll have to remind them of the mission.
- The result will not be what you planned.
- To the extent that you succeed, the important benefits will result from solving unforeseen complications.
Of geese, ganders, and pay-for-performance
Like most employees of large institutions, I am subject to a variety of 'incentives' that are designed to meet institutional needs, which may or may not be well aligned with my needs, to say nothing of the needs of my patients.
I teach to remain a learner
Teaching in our local family practice residency is one of the most enjoyable parts of my week. When a colleague recently asked why I liked it so much, it took some reflection to answer.
Slow down, you move too fast...
Slow down, you move too fast. It will all be over far too soon.
CPOE for management
At a recent clinical staff meeting, a physician complained that the new requirement that clinicians enter all orders manually into the electronic record (CPOE) is slowing us down and causing errors. The IT and administrative staff were not the least sympathetic. Their message: it's really not a big deal, it only takes an extra minute or two, and smart people like you should be able to master a simple skill like this. On the way home, I came up with a way to help them better understand: CPOE for management.
Distractions and interruptions
Did you know that there is a whole branch of psychology devoted to the impact of interruptions and distractions on learning, memory, performance, productivity, and decision making?
Playwrights and critics
It's frustrating when they won't let you be a playwright, but then complain when you become a critic.
Results are not always important
Lisl was very good high school skier but seemed not to have the race results she was capable of and everyone expected.
Meetings: a tool to create apathy
A physician friend commented recently that he was being 'meeting-ed to death' and wondered if it was intentional. It turns out, he was on to something.
Chart review
Guinness Book of World Stupid
You can't make this stuff up. I pulled into our local BJ's gas station on a recent rainy morning. It was quite busy and I looked around for the shortest line to join, Seeing a woman in her early 20s who appeared to be finished fueling as she re-holstered the nozzle in the pump and returned to her car, I pulled in behind her, expecting to promptly be able to pull up and buy gas. A car pulled in behind me, so I was now committed.
The perfect storm of discontent
A friend recently explained why he retired from a long and rewarding career in medicine and medical education, despite still loving his one-on-one interactions with patients.
The innovator's prayer
Words of wisdom…
Workplace Wellness Programs: sense or nonsense?
Workplace wellness and chronic disease management programs (now encouraged by the ACA) are quite common, but being a $6 billion dollar industry doesn't make them useful. Recent personal experience with one such program has led me to look more closely at the topic.

text: Wal-Mart: Mexico must investigate bribery allegations, civil society group says Money Money Mexico United States News Desk on Dec 31, 1969 @ 7:33 PM A protest against a planned Wal-Mart is seen Teotihuacan, Mexico State, in October, 2004. Faced with allegations that local officials accepted $24 million in bribes from the US retailer Wal-Mart, the Mexican government has so far said nothing. But a local anticorruption organization is calling on the government in Mexico City to undertake a thorough investigation, according to The Associated Press. The New York Times reported Saturday that Wal-Mart had scuttled and buried an internal investigation that revealed widespread bribery in Mexico as part of a company effort to win market dominance there. In a statement that day, Wal-Mart said it took the allegations very seriously and was conducting its own internal investigation. More from GlobalPost: Widespread bribery by Wal-Mart in Mexico - NYT Twenty-percent of all Wal-Mart stores are now in Mexico and the retail giant is now Mexico's largest private employer, according to the AP. In the statement, Wal-Mart's Vice President for communications David Tovar said "if these allegations are true, it is not a reflection of who we are or what we stand for. We are deeply concerned by these allegations and are working aggressively to determine what happened." The company also released this YouTube video of Tovar's statement: Under a 1977 law, it is a crime for any publicly-traded US corporation or its agents to pay bribes to foreign government officials. The US Justice Department and Securities and Exchange Commission have routinely pursued such cases, winning large penalties and disgorgement of ill-gotten profits from companies such as Siemens, Halliburton, Daimler and Chevron. More from GlobalPost: Peru, Latin America's hidden growth story According to the AP, Eduardo Bohorquez, director of Transparencia Mexicana, said the Mexican government was required to undertake an investigation by international treaty to investigate. According to the AP, the bribery does not concern federal officials in Mexico. Mexico was among the first countries to ratify the 2003 UN Convention Against Corruption in 2004.

Kids posing online as pedophiles
This is an important heads-up if parents are worried about predators contacting their children online.

The Wasted Vigil (eBook)
The Wasted Vigil (eBook)
In The Wasted Vigil, Nadeem Aslam, the award-winning author of Maps for Lost Lovers, brilliantly knits together five seemingly unconnected lives to create a luminous story set in contemporary Afghanistan.There's Marcus, an English expat who was married to an outspoken Afghani doctor; David, a former American spy; Lara, from St. Petersburg, looking for traces of her brother, a Russian soldier who disappeared years before; Casa, a young Afghani whose hatred of the Americans has plunged him into the blinding depths of zealotry; and James, an American Special Forces soldier. Aslamreveals the intertwining paths that these characters have traveled, constructing a timely and intimate portrait of the complex ties that bind us and the wars that continue to tear us apart.
From the Trade Paperback edition.
About the Author
Nadeem Aslam is the author of two previous novels, both of which were long-listed for the Man Booker Prize: Maps for Lost Lovers, winner of the Kiriyama Prize and a New York Times Notable Book, and Season of the Rainbirds. He is also the recipient of a Lannan Literary Fellowship. Born in Pakistan, he now lives in England.
Praise for The Wasted Vigil…
"Extraordinary . . . Nadeem Aslam's new novel is an audacious panorama, seeking as it does to encapsulate several national histories as well as the overlapping destinies of individuals caught up in apparently disparate events. Yet Aslam manages to describe the lives of his many characters, and their illusions and despair, with consummate skill . . . Describing Casa's vulnerability, Aslam makes his character undergo, in just a few skillfully crafted pages, the complete gamut of Dostoevskian emotions . . . Aslam's determination to gaze resolutely at the darkest side of our many cold and hot wars is what gives The Wasted Vigil its depth and power."
–Pankaj Mishra, New York Review of Books
"A harrowing yet beautiful depiction of an Afghanistan mutilated by war and oppression . . . With astonishing lyricism and compassion Aslam creates unforgettable characters while telling a story that is as gripping as it is affecting."
–Boston Globe
"A searing, multifaceted novel . . . Its polyglot characters inhabit a seething cauldron of human drama . . . You might think that there is a particular specter haunting Afghanistan in these early years of the 21st century–the Taliban–but in Aslam's penetrating view, there are multiple forces at work there."
–San Francisco Chronicle
"Unafraid of political complexity, Aslam is also unflinching in his examination of depravity. Yet his writing also encompasses tenderness. His characters are intricately wounded and geographically diverse . . . This novel seeks to reveal the psyche not just of one rural village or one immigrant community but of Britain, the Soviet Union, the United States and Afghanistan. The revelations throughout are artful."
–New York Times Book Review
"The Wasted Vigil is remarkable for being at once topical and timeless–a complex and layered vision of contemporary Afghanistan . . . Like Michael Ondaatje before him, Aslam has a way of breathing life into larger historical and political backdrops with sensual details and lush interior lives. The Wasted Vigil shimmers with moments of poetic beauty and seems destined, like The English Patient to become a classic of modern, globalized literature."
–Time Out New York
"Nadeem Aslam offers readers surprising gems in his new book . . . The fabric of these characters' lives are interwoven with rich, carefully researched detail about Afghanistan and the intricacies of life in a country still grappling with the lasting influences of the Taliban and Al Qaeda. It's a bold task to attempt to point out the similarities between a Muslim fundamentalist's zeal and an American CIA agent's righteous view of his job, yet, amid a sweeping story about love, Aslam does exactly this with considerable poise . . . A book that is both lyrical and sharp."
–Christian Science Monitor
"Arguably the best novel available on the current situation in the Middle East. The jihadists, the warlords, the crusading Americans–all are given voice in calm, relentless, shatteringly beautiful prose that reveals the essential wrongness of the current conflict from every angle. There's no whitewash or caricature here, just authentic writing that delivers the world–and a range of extraordinary characters. Highly recommended."
–Library Journal (starred)
"An intense, empathetic, magisterial interpretation of clashing beliefs and entwined fates, in a harsh and ruined, yet lovely place . . . Complexity, beauty, violence and tragedy mark the pages of Aslam's affecting story . . . [The novel has] insight and somber impact."
–Kirkus Reviews (starred)
"Kiriyama-winner Aslam takes an ambitious and moving look at the human cost of Afghanistan's war-torn reality . . . An unflinchingly clear picture of a country whose history of strife is still being written."
–Publishers Weekly (starred)
Reviews from the UK:
"Stunning . . . The book is beautiful and brutal . . . The Wasted Vigil spans 30 years of what the media used to call the 'Afghan conflict,' which has now transformed into the front line of the West's war on terror . . . There are episodes in the book so intense that you have to close it and breathe before you can start again. Similarly, there are images so stunning that you pause and read again to savour the sheer beauty of the language."
"Remarkable . . . Nadeem Aslam's stark, outraged, thoughtful novel, with its unsettling, sorrowing beauty, [is] a universal book. It is a huge achievement, immense in its wisdom and humanity . . . The characters are real, the narrative power worthy to stand shoulder to shoulder with Tolstoy . . . The Wasted Vigil is an inspired book, the quest novel we should–no must–all read . . . Aslam confirms he is a writer of singular genius."
–Irish Times
"Enthralling . . . Like Michael Ondaatje in The English Patient, Aslam knows how to handle the rich material in front of him, because he is not merely a novelist; he is an artist and a poet . . . The novel will stay with the reader long after it ends."
–New Statesman
"An ambitious and luminous novel . . . The Wasted Vigil reminds us that fiction can do things that mere reportage can't."
–Sunday Times
"What makes the book most compelling is Nadeem Aslam's gift for elevating even the hellishness of war to poetic heights. His eerily lyrical rendering of the beauty of the natural world and his sensual prose throw into dramatic relief the human acts of cruelty and barbarism he depicts . . . A humane and remarkable novel."
–Literary Review
"Spellbinding–a beautifully drawn web of the fragile connections of trust, misunderstanding, memory, sacrifice, and, against the odds, love, that people who have lost everything else in the deadly stupidity of war must live and die by. Nadeem Aslam is a master of words and arresting images."
–The Times

Rochester, Minn.
Assessing disease activity in people with Takayasu's arteritis is difficult, as most people with the disease do not exhibit visible, measurable symptoms. Combination positron emission tomography/computed axial tomography (PET/CT) is a particularly sensitive, accurate scanning method that may improve researchers' ability to evaluate people with the disease. This study will determine the effectiveness of PET/CT in assessing disease activity in people with Takayasu's arteritis.
Contact us for the latest status
During the early phases (phases 1 and 2), researchers assess safety, side effects, optimal dosages and risks/benefits. In the later phase (phase 3), researchers study whether the treatment works better than the current standard therapy. They also compare the safety of the new treatment with that of current treatments. Phase 3 trials include large numbers of people to make sure that the result is valid. There are also less common very early (phase 0) and later (phase 4) phases. Phase 0 trials are small trials that help researchers decide if a new agent should be tested in a phase 1 trial. Phase 4 trials look at long-term safety and effectiveness, after a new treatment has been approved and is on the market.
Study is a double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled, dose escalating study. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and feasibility of a single intravenous infusion of allogeneic mesenchymal precursor cells (MPCs) compared to placebo at 12 weeks post-infusion in the treatment of patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who have received methotrexate +/- other DMARDs for at least 6 months prior to screening and who have had an incomplete response to at least one TNF-alpha inhibitor.

This is a mechanistic research study to evaluate the relationship between cough, reflux, and aspiration in patients with systemic sclerosis (scleroderma).
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of sirukumab as measured by the reduction of the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in patients with active RA who are unresponsive or intolerant to treatment with anti-TNF-alpha agents.

Latest Galapagos National Park Stories
Sadly, the sudden death of the giant tortoise Lonesome George on the Galapagos Islands this Sunday marks the loss of another subspecies from the face of the Earth.
The Galapagos National Park reported on Thursday that they are providing two new female partners for "Lonely Georgeâ€, who is believed to be the last living member of the Geochelone abigdoni species.
A volcanic eruption has compromised the wildlife of the ecologically-delicate Galapagos Islands, resulting in the deaths of fish and sea lions over the weekend.
Officials announced on Saturday that the La Cumbre volcano in the Galapagos Islands is erupting again and could threaten the Islands' unique wildlife.
Park rangers at Ecuador's Galapagos National Park said a tortoise believed to be the last of its subspecies has failed in two attempts at fathering children. The rangers said the 90-year-old tortoise named Lonesome George -- the last known member of the Pinta Island tortoise subspecies -- has shown little interest in mating since it was found in 1971, The Daily Telegraph reported Friday. Lonesome George, who has become a regional icon for conservation, did mate with two female tortoises of...
Rangers found the shells of eight endangered giant tortoises believed to have been killed by poachers, Galapagos National Park officials said Tuesday. Poachers sometimes kill the protected tortoises and use the meat for consumption or for sale on the black market.
The threat is growing to the cradle of evolution. Crucial talks take place today over the increasingly precarious future of the Galapagos Islands, whose unique wildlife inspired Charles Darwin's revolutionary theory.
Rescuers dug makeshift pools in the sand around 12 whales beached on the Galapagos Islands, filling the shallow pits with water Sunday in an effort to keep the whales from dying of dehydration.
QUITO, Ecuador (Reuters) - A volcanic eruption on the Galapagos Islands has sent scorching lava pouring seawards but giant tortoises which helped inspired the theory of evolution are safe, island authorities said on Sunday.

Geist & Gegenwart – Dialogue Forum / Whitsun Dialogue
The Styrian Government launched the 'Geist & Gegenwart' dialogues in 2005 to create a formal platform for in-depth intellectual discourse on important questions of our time, something which has always been a major concern for Graz and Styria, which constitute a dynamic hub in the South-East of Europe.
'Geist & Gegenwart' is made up of two components
Whitsun DialoguesFirst, the Whitsun Dialogues, which are held every two years in Seggauberg Castle, the former Bishop's residence in southern Styria, close to the Slovenian, Croatian and Hungarian borders. The events took place in 2005, 2007, 2009, 2011 and 2013, the sixth is planned for May 2015.
Series of Dialogs
Second, a series of dialogues launched in autumn 2007, which take place several times a year in Graz, where prominent experts contribute to intellectual discussions in lecture and discussion evenings.
'Geist & Gegenwart' is coordinated by the Styrian Government's Department for Science and Research, which is headed by Regional Minister Christopher Drexler, in cooperation with JOANNEUM RESEARCH, the Diocese of Graz-Seckau, the European Forum Alpbach and the five Styrian universities.

Are flush doors more soundproof than paneled doors?
I am renovating my bathroom which is right off of our living room. It has a paneled door which doesn't offer much privacy. You can hear sounds easily through the door.
Since flush doors are consistently thicker (they don't have thin panels) would that make them better at reducing sound transmission? Does anyone have experience with this?
Thanks! Solid core door, copy that. I'm in a tiny apt in NYC so not much room to add to wall depth, the walls are already pretty solid old material (1940's).
What I'm actually thinking about doing is using a solid core door and then adding my own molding to it to create a panel looking door. The frame is pretty thick and I know I'll need to account for room to open door. That should make an extra thick door for me.
The extra insulation goes IN the wall in the hollow space between the studs to help muffle the sound. You wouldn't be adding any thickness, just filling in that hollow space...same deal with a solid core door. The door itself isn't any thicker. Many inside walls are not insulated. But to do that you'd need to remove one side of the wallboard, which gets involved.
Come to think of it - if you are in a 1940's building, your walls could be lath and plaster, rather than wallboard nailed to studs. In which case, the whole insulation thing wouldn't work. I don't think there's a cavity to even put it in, and I doubt it would help vs a solid wall. Do you know if the walls are plaster or drywall?
Actually on a true paneled door the panels are relatively thin, the door styles and rails are 1-3/8 but the panels are as thin as 3/8 for a recessed panel door and about 3/4 for a raised panel door, with 3/8" around the border of the panel.
A molded door with a panel design may have "raised panels" that are about as thick as the perimeter of the door.
Thanks for all these responses!
I was considering installing a fan in our exhaust (with permission from our coop) as, yes, it would certainly help our situation.
And yes, I believe our old construction has plaster walls (which are already quite heavy and dense) so I don't believe I can add insulation.
But what I many by creating a paneled door is I would add my own molding I too of a solid blank, therefore creating what looks like a paneled door except really thick. I believe it would look fine within the thick door frame,
Does that make sense?--I wasn't sure you knew what I meant.

"Robert K. Batchelor's elegantly written and lavishly illustrated book is a remarkable achievement. He explains how changes in East Asia made London into a global city. In so doing he forces us to recalibrate our notions of the coming of modernity. Modernity in Batchelor's hands emerges not from Europe but on a global scale and through translation rather than European imposition. This is an immensely learned and stimulating book that will provoke widespread reflection and debate."

Brooklyn indie crew Here We Go Magic are on something of a winning streak lately.

"Near Beer...." Oklahoma City Favorite Tip by kenmerk
Oklahoma City Favorites: 23 reviews and 19 photos
Favorite thing: While the steaks are robust in Oklahoma City, the beers unfortunately are not.
For reasons unknownst to me, it seems the only beer available is watered down 3.2 beer. This can make it somewhat challenging to find a proper beverage to wash that 40 oz porterhouse down with. (and also necessitate more than a couple visits to the rest room)

In honor of Veterans' Day, National Parks and Forests all across the country will be waiving entrance fees in their final Fee-Free Weeekend of 2012. That includes Sequoia, Joshua Tree, and Yosemite National Parks as well as the Angeles, San Bernardino, Cleveland, and Los Padres National Forests, so there's no excuse not to tackle a good trail this weekend!
If the low costs weren't enough to encourage you, the recent rainstorms here in SoCal should – the mountains out here are absolutely STUNNING in the day or two after a rain – the chaparral and California bay are fragrant, the air is crisp and cool, and the views seem to go on forever. Here's a view from a trip I took to Sandstone Peak the day after a rain, just to give you an idea:
For a bit of inspiration, here's a post I did a while back on some of the best post-rain hikes around Los Angeles – so get out there and hike! And thank a veteran while you're at it!

Better than a garden cart or wheel barrel!
Maybe this has been suggested before but I haven't seen it.
I bought a thingy at Big Lots that has solved some problems for me.
I don't know what it is called, but it looks like a large milk crate with a telescoping handle like what you see on luggage. Then when not in use the whole thing collaspes FLAT for storage or transport. The bottom of the crate part folds up and the corners have hinges. It can be hung on a hook in the garage off the floor.
It is perfect for hauling branches and trimings and toting tools and lugging bags of seed or fertilizer and such.
I never was happy with those 'garden carts' that they sell at the stores. Or the wheel barrel I borrowed - Bigger than what I needed and hard to store and impossible to transport in a car to an offsite community garden.
I just needed something small for gardening in a city lot.
This thingy was only $14 and says it hold up to 70lbs. It is really very light weight being that it is sturdy plastic and it is washable. (The telescoping handle is metal.)
I have seen people on the bus using these things to transport their groceries and such. I never knew where they bought them and never thought of using them in gardening.
I am so pleased wih mine, I thought I would pass this along.
I want to point out that this thing has two wheels and you tilt it with the handle to roll it like a piece of luggage. I didn't make that clear in my orginal post.
When it is folded up it looks like a briefcase with two wheels and a short handle.
*I checked my receipt and it only cost $12.99.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Lightning struck outside a soccer stadium before an MLS game, sending an off-duty firefighter who went into cardiac arrest to the hospital and forcing the postponement of the Columbus Crew's game against FC Dallas.
Soccer fan hospitalized after lightning strike
The lightning strike was in the parking lot of Crew Stadium on Saturday night, but it's not known if the off-duty lieutenant was struck directly, Columbus Fire Department Battalion Chief Tracy Smith said.
The firefighter, identified as Lt. Stu Tudor, had to be resuscitated, and was listed Sunday in critical condition in the intensive care unit at the Ohio State Medical Center, Smith said. She said it takes between two and three days to determine the total effects of a possible lightning strike.
The storm with heavy rain and lightning bursts rolled through about 15 minutes before the scheduled 8 p.m. kickoff. Fans were told to evacuate the stands and head toward the concourses of the double-decked stadium.
Emergency officials got calls reporting the lightning strike at about 8 p.m.
Crew fan Don Lewis told The Columbus Dispatch that he was taking cover during heavy rain in a portable toilet when he said he felt electricity run through the air and then heard someone in the toilet next to him call 911 to report that someone had been hit by lightning.

B&O TV & Surround Sound
I've been thinking about the Bang & Olufsen LCD TV and surround sound. It's much most expensive than others I've looked at. Can someone who has it tell me if it's worth the cost?
It isn't worth the cost. If you aren't in a bright sunlit room get a 1080p 50-60" plasma from Pioneer (or Pioneer Elite) or a 50" or 58" Panasonic 1080p plasma. They both outperform every LCD, although the new Samsung 81 series LED lit LCD's are very good in their 46" and 52" incarnations. The Sony XBR4 and XBR5 are essentially the same (save money and get the XBR4) and are also superior to most every other LCD's. Sharp also makes good LCD's and supplies the LCD panels to many other companies. Of course, the lighting of the panels and the internal de-interlacing and scaling quality varies from company to company and most often from cheaper models in the same line, not to forget about cheaper LCD's.
If you want great surround either get a solid receiver (such as Denon 4308ci, Onkyo SR-875, or Pioneer Elite 94TX).
Even better would be the new separate amps from Emotiva.com, which makes both 5 channel and 7 channel amps that are both beuatiful and powerful. Then get an Integra DTC-9.8(the Lexus-like line of Onkyo) surround pre-amp, or if you want to really splurge get the Anthem Statement D2 or Anthem AVM-50.
Pioneer Elite is releasing the SC-09TX next month and will likely be the best receiver currently made, albeit at an MSRP of $7,000.
Good speakers are a must, whether you need for design sake in-wall or in-ceiling speakers, or even better great bookshelf speakers on a stand or even floorstanding speakers. A great self-powered subwoofer is a must.

Don't let the pigeon drive the bus! (2003)
by Mo Willems
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I really enjoyed this book. Mo Williams illustrates his writing perfectly. the illustrations really connect with the characters expressions. The illustrations are always simple although very effective. The illustrations work with the words as they both pull the reader into the story. As the pigeon begs to drive the bus the reader is obligated not to let him. At one point the pigeon goes in to a range exclaiming "LET ME DRIVE THE BUS!" Overall, the moral of this story is to follow your dreams, are the end of the story the reader sees the pigeon upgrade his dream from the bus to a truck.
Pigeon wants to drive the bus. The driver of the bus is told that no matter what do not let the pigeon drive the bus. Very funny. There is a series of these books.
This is a very simple tale of a pigeon wanting to drive a city bus. The pigeon is extremely persistent. He uses a variety of emotions to try to persuade someone to let him drive the bus. He gets angry, clever and even sly. Kids would enjoy the repetitiveness. It would be good for use with children in preschool or kindergarten. You could assess the different punctuation marks used in each line and maybe figure out the mood of the pigeon based on these marks. It could also help with fluency and rhythm in reading. It might be fun for all. It could also be used to model that tantrums do not pay off.
This fantasy book is about a little pigeon that is trying his hardest to get you (the reader) to let him drive the bus, even though at the beggining of the book, the bus driver gave clear instructions to not let him drive it. He tries so very hard to get to drive the bus but then the bus driver comes back and he is sad. Then he sees a semi-truck and you can tell that all he is thinking about now is being able to drive that truck.
I enjoyed some parts of this book, however there were also some parts I did not like. I liked the illustrations the pigeon was very cute. I also liked how the text was written in speech bubbles because this is visually appealing to children. The last thing I liked was how in parts the author gives great descriptions so you can envision what he is trying to say. For example, it says, "vroom, vroom, vroomy-vroom vroom". The reader can hear and envision the image by the author using these words. Something I did not like was that there was no real plot to the story. The main idea was that a pigeon wanted to drive a bus, but he could not. I also did not like how the story was unrealistic.

Amazon Exclusive: The Pigeon: A Life in Pictures
Back in 1993, I was cartooning for a 'zine. Due to a lack of other material, we decided to make the December issue a sketchbook with just my cartoons. I have been producing small cartoon and story sketchbooks for clients and pals every year since then. In 1998, my sketchbook featured a new character, the Pigeon. Born in the margins of a 1997 notebook filled with potential picture book ideas, he was complaining that his ideas were better than mine. To mollify him, I put him in that year's sketchbook. The original sketchbook was much longer than the final published volume, but some of the lines were the same. In late 1999, an agent essentially agreed with the Pigeon and rejected my picture book ideas. She suggested I revisit my sketchbook with an eye to turning it into a picture book. My wife was working at a school library at the time and had read the sketchbook to her kids, who had enjoyed it. So I suppose it wasn't too crazy an idea. I started to revise the layout and work with color. At the end of 2001, after several dozen rejections because the book was "unusual," an editor decided that "unusual" was a good thing. Plus, it made her laugh. I began reworking and rewriting. The Pigeon was now starting to look more like his mature self. Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! was published in April 2003 and, to my surprise, proved to be popular quite quickly. Thankfully, that Pigeon doodle in the notebook back in 1997 was so insistent. He was right!

"When a bus driver takes a break from his route, a very unlikely volunteer springs up to take his place-- a pigeon. But you never met one like this before."
