This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/351,969, filed Jan. 25, 2002 and entitled "Means and Apparatus for Rapid, Accurate, Non-Contact Measurement of the Core Temperature of Animals and Humans".
This invention relates to temperature sensing devices, and more particularly to a device for measuring temperature from the black body emissions of the eye.
In the United States' cattle industry, annual mortality of cattle due to disease is estimated to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. A reliable method of determining the health of a cow or the presence of disease is by assessing the body temperature of the animal. In the case of infections, environmental factors, or toxins, a cow's temperature will elevate. These elevations are diagnostic to veterinarians in the diagnosis of disease and disease conditions in cattle. In the day-to-day production of cattle, the evaluation of the presence of increased body temperature or fever is under utilized due to time constraints and the need to physically restrain the animal. This under utilization of temperature evaluation delays the diagnosis of disease and therefore increases the use of antibiotics and loss of animals.
A need exists for rapid and accurate measurement of the core temperature of animals, particularly, but not limited to, domestic food animals such as cattle, sheep, and goats, as well as humans and horses. Core temperature, the internal body temperature, has been difficult to measure accurately without physical contact with the interior of the body.
Traditionally, to obtain temperature measurements, clinical thermometers have been inserted rectally or orally and must remain in position for periods of several minutes to obtain a stable reading. This usually requires restraint of the animal, which is time consuming and labor intensive. Typically, the body temperature of cattle is measured with a clinical mercury Fahrenheit thermometer or with a digital thermometer. A mercury thermometer has a scale ranging from 94 F. to 110 F. and each degree is divided into ⅕ths. The thermometer requires shaking the mercury column into the bulb end. The thermometer is then lubricated or moistened and manually inserted its full length into the rectum. It remains in the rectum for a minimum of 3 minutes to obtain an accurate reading. As most animals object to this procedure, the animal must be physically restrained during this time.
In recent years, temperature sensors of low thermal mass, such as miniature thermocouples or thermistors, have been used with an electronic digital readout to make the more rapid digital thermometers. However, these devices still require oral or rectal insertion and restraint of the animal but the time for accurate measurement is only one minute.
Other approaches to animal temperature measurement are based on sensing the thermal emission energy, the so called black body emission. This energy is emitted as a wide band electromagnetic spectrum by all heated bodies and has a wavelength distribution and intensity in proportion to temperature. This emitted energy is detected by use of a non-contact microwave, millimeter (mm) wave, or infrared (IR) sensors. Thermal emission measurement is rapid, but the accuracy by which the thermal emission is related to temperature is affected by two factors, in addition to instrumental errors, if any. The first factor is how accurately an emitting surface that is accessible for measurement relates to the core temperature. This frequently poses a problem with animals and humans in that skin may not be a true representation of the internal temperature. This is particularly a problem with IR, where the depth within a body from which the emission is detected is very shallow and is essentially proportional to the outer temperature of the skin. The second factor, surface emissivity, also affects the amount of thermal emission from a body at a given temperature. This causes temperature measurements, based on thermal emissions, to vary depending on the color and the physical properties of the materials being measured. To attempt to overcome this source of error, some IR thermal emission thermometers use a probe inserted into the ear. However, surface emissivity in the ear can vary due to varying amounts and types of debris and these can limit the accuracy. In another variation, an insert is placed in the ear of the animals to provide a constant emissivity target for the IR sensor. The insert must be in the ear for a sufficient time to reach thermal equilibrium prior to measurement, which is undesirable from cost and time considerations.
The possibility of measuring the core temperature of cattle by remote (hands-off) sensing has been of great interest over the past 30 years or more. Previous approaches have been based on (1) passive detection of the magnitude of the IR or microwave energy that is emitted in proportion to the temperature and wavelength (in accordance with Planck's law) from most materials including human or animal hide or ear (interior); (2) the use of implants and/or tags which use contact type thermal sensors (thermistors, thermocouples, etc.) and usually a wireless means of reading out the data on demand; and (3) the use of ingested temperature sensing capsules which contain a temperature sensor and a radio frequency (VHF or UHF) transmitter or transponder to communicate the temperature data from the interior of the animal to an outside read out unit. None of these previous devices or approaches are completely satisfactory due to cost, poor accuracy, practical application limitations, or other reasons.
Existing passive IR emission methods are of limited accuracy (+/−1 degree or worse). These methods are based on sensing surface (skin or hide) temperature and have not been adequate for accurate, direct measurement of animal temperature. Skin temperature is not always an accurate indication of the core temperature of the animal. Also, the emissivity of hair-covered skin is variable and, with IR, will not provide accurate skin temperature nor core temperature indications.
The invention described herein provides rapid, accurate non-contact measurement of electromagnetic thermal emission and relates such measurements to the core temperature of the animal or person. It overcomes the limitations of previous thermal emission thermometers by non-contact sensing of thermal emissions only from the eye of the subject. The eye provides a target with many desirable properties for such measurements. It is readily accessible, generally very clean, has a high emissivity, is quite uniform from one animal to another of the same specie, and is continuously bathed with fresh body fluids, internally and externally that maintain the eye near the core temperature. The wavelength of eye emissions that are sensed for such temperature measurements may be in the microwave, millimeter wave, or IR (long to short wavelengths). It may also be a combination of more than one wavelength within these ranges, optimized to be most suitable for the intended application.
Criteria for optimization of the detected wavelength include: (1) suitability for non-contact sensing of the emission from a spot the size of the eye, or a selected portion thereof, while minimizing the sensitivity to emissions from regions outside the said spot; (2) maximizing the depth into the eye from which emissions are detected to insure the highest correlation with core temperature, while maintaining an acceptable instrument sensitivity measurement error; (3) freedom from effects of the environment, natural and manmade, on the measurement; and (4) measurement time for sufficient accuracy.
The method uses electromagnetic (black body) emission from the eye of the animal to accurately and rapidly assess temperature. This hands-off method is effective and efficient in the early detection of disease. This facilitates the rapid use of proper treatment regiments and reduces the overuse of antibiotics and thus the antibiotic residue in meat and milk supplies.
In the example of this description, the method obtains accurate core temperature indications by using the measured thermal electromagnetic emission at one or more wavelengths, from the eye of an animal. The eye is accessible from outside the animal and has the possibility of providing an accurate core temperature indication—especially if emission from within the eyeball is utilized.
It is known from laser safety guidelines that only visible and near-infrared (400-1400 nm) wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation (light) can readily penetrate the aqueous, cornea, iris, lens, and vitreous and be focused on the retina at the back interior of the eyeball. Similarly, emissions from these interior regions will pass through the front of the eye and may be detectable externally by use of a suitable sensor. Mid-infrared (1400-3000 nm) and far infrared (3000 nm to 1 mm) are absorbed in the front surface of the eye, though some mid-infrared (sometimes called short wave IR) of (1.4-2.5 microns) penetrates deeper through the cornea region. Far infrared used to detect emission from the eye would be primarily sensing emission from the exposed outer surface of the eye—due to absorption of emissions coming from the interior by the near surface layers of the eyeball. While this emission could be near the core temperature, the outer surface may not always be sufficiently insulated from the effects of environmental temperatures, wind, rain, etc. to consistently provide an accurate correlation with core temperature. Emission from the lens, vitreous, and retina, which are deeper within the eyeball, meet the criteria for more accurate correlation with the core temperature. Sensing of the emissions from the interior regions of the eye provides a useful basis for obtaining accurate core temperature with a non-contacting sensor.
In the example of
The sensor unit 102 also contains auxiliary sensors for sensing the temperatures of the assembly and other environmental parameters needed to compensate for their effects on the core temperature measurement. In the example of
Illumination marker 120 provides a visual indication of the region of the eye 101 that is being examined for core temperature measurement. In other words, marker 120 provides a spot of visible light on the eye that corresponds to the center receiving area of sensor unit 102. For example, marker 120 might provide a spot of light on the eye when the detector unit 102 is properly aimed toward the eye. The marker 120 permits the operator to stand away from the animal and know that sensor unit 102 is aimed in the desired direction. The spot of light serves the additional function of attracting the animal's attention and thereby facilitating measurement.
The output signal from the emissions detector 109 goes to the amplifier-detector 103 that boosts the amplitude of the signal and detects the amplitude of the emissions from the eye. The detected signal is normalized and calibrated in terms of the temperature of the emitter by the calibrator 106. The emission data from measurements of live animals is calibrated to rectal thermometer temperatures. During such initial tests the cow is restrained to minimize movement and allow access for adequate measurements to be made. Vaccines, such as for pasturella, provide a harmless means for temporarily raising the temperature of test cattle by up to about 5 degrees above the normal range of 100-103 F.
The output of the temperature sensor 110 (and any other environmental sensors) is connected to the temperature and environmental signal conditioner and control unit 104, where the signal is amplified, normalized and used to provide correction data needed to compensate for and improve the accuracy of relating the emissions data to the core temperature of the animal or human. For example, changes in temperature can affect the detector sensitivity as well as the magnitude of non-related thermal emissions that reach the detector. Corrections and compensations that are needed are performed by the data correlator and computer 107. If desired, conditioner and control unit 104 may include means for maintaining sensor unit 102 at a constant temperature. It may also be cooled so as to improve sensitivity. For example, a thermoelectric cooler or cryogenic fluid may be used.
Identification sensor 115, through amplifier-detector 105 also provides data to the data correlator and computer 107, which provides a visual, numerical readout of the core temperature, identification number, time, date, environmental temperature, and other pertinent information on display 108. The core temperature is computed from the amplitude of the eye emissions, of a selected wavelength, corrected for effects, if any, of environmental temperature, distance from the eye to the sensor assembly 102, region of the eye that is measured and the type of animal as well as for instrumentation variables of amplifier gain, detector sensitivity, and pre-detection bandwidth. This readout data is also stored in the computer 107 for later recovery or for transfer to an external data storage facility for long time retention. Display 108 may also display other information, such as the animal's rectal temperature, it's breed and other identifiers.
For best transmission of electromagnetic emission data from deeper into the eye, the shorter IR (0.8 to 1 micron) wavelength ranges are advantageous; but, conversely at body temperatures, the emission amplitude increases drastically at longer wavelengths. The wavelength range that is sensed is set by the type of detector 109 and by the use of filters, such as filter 111, ahead of the detector to restrict the range of emission wavelengths that fall upon the detector. For wavelengths greater than about 1.5 microns a broadband thermopile detector or some photodiodes, such as cooled extended range indium arsenide photodiode detectors, provide good sensitivity and are commonly used either with or without IR filters to restrict the bandwidth of the detected emission. For shorter wavelengths, other photodiodes (germanium, silicon, gallium arsenide, with various dopants) or photomultiplier type sensors provide optimum sensitivity and are generally preferred, either cooled or uncooled. IR filters are used to restrict the wavelength range of the emission that is detected. Otherwise the emissions from several regions of the eye would be detected simultaneously. The surface emissions, representing the surface temperature of the eye, can be much larger than those from deeper into the eyeball. Unless corrected for wavelength (or otherwise) these surface emissions will cause errors in measuring the desired (internal) emissions that, in most cases, will be most representative of the core temperature. A far-IR detector will respond entirely to the surface temperature, which in general, is much more susceptible to environmental effects than are the internal emissions. Conversely, the low attenuation in the eyeball at visual and near-IR wavelengths would be most suitable for transmitting emissions from deep into the eye back to the retina region. This is desirable since the retina region is best isolated from environmental effects and the temperature is best correlated with core temperature. Unfortunately, there is a problem with the intensity of the Planck emission at these short (visual and near-infrared) wavelengths. In practice the emission from a black body at live animal temperatures (300-310 K) is so weak that it is undetectable at visual wavelengths even with the best detectors. Even at 1000 nm, the emission is at these temperatures is still so weak that it is not rapidly detectable. The question then becomes, for a small, hand held thermal emissions detector are there any IR wavelengths where internal eyeball temperatures are accurately measurable (to 0.1 K) in an acceptably short time (few seconds), from a stand off distance (range) of 30 cm (12-inches) or more. The answer is yes if a cooled extended (wavelength) range indium arsenide photodiode detector, or an equivalent, is used at wavelengths in the 1600-2400 nm range, particularly in either or both of the two bands, 1600-1800 and 2150-2350 nm that were previously mentioned. A preferred embodiment of 102 of our invention uses a photodetector with optical filters that will pass emissions of nominal wavelengths 1600-1800 or 2150-2350 nm, or both, along with collecting and focusing optics that will create an IR sensing region (of a size near that of the cornea) when the detector 102 is at a selected distance, for example 12-inches from the eye to be measured. These concepts and specifications are key elements of our invention.
Another detail of the invention addresses additional means that are utilized to further reduce the effects of emissions coming from different depths in the eye or from extraneous, non-related sources and to thereby improve the measurement accuracy. The desired thermal emissions that best correlate with the core temperature come from the interior of the eye. However, other (unwanted) thermal emissions will be detected from the surface and near-surface of the eye. These may be at the same temperature as the desired interior emissions, at a higher temperature or at a lower temperature. In any case the surface and near-surface emissions can be expected to vary a small amount with changing environmental temperature, wind and rain and thereby cause measurement errors. The interior emissions will only be of appreciable intensity at the wavelengths where the eye attenuation is minimal (these are the same wavelengths as the detector filter) while the surface and near-surface emissions have a much wider spectrum with intensity increasing at longer wavelengths. By comparing the total emission detected through the narrow band filter with the total emission detected with a wider band filter, or with no filter, the component due to internal emission will not change (except for loss in the narrow band filter) while the detected surface emissions will increase significantly when a broad band filter is used. By knowing the spectral band pass characteristics of the broad filter and of the detector, the emissions from the eye surface and spurious sources are determined and a correction factor is derived in computer 107 for the interior eye temperature measurement. This factor, along with the amplified signal from the emissions detector and the calibration factors are used to calculate, in computer 107, an accurate core temperature for each measurement.
An antenna-detector-mixer device 41 may be implemented as a small integrated circuit. The antenna portion picks up the eye emissions at selected wavelengths, the mixer portion mixes the emission signal with the signal from oscillator 52, and the detector portion converts the emission signal to a lower frequency for amplification by amplifier 53. The antenna size and the oscillator frequency are functions of the desired emission wavelengths to be detected.
For all wavelengths (IR, millimeter, and micrometer), detection of eyeball emissions at two or more wavelength bands offers the opportunity to minimize the effects of environmental temperature and background emission levels for a given temperature measurement. For example, signals at a first wavelength can be compared to signals from a second wavelength. For this implementation, the sensor unit 102 of

Newcastle United striker Michael Owen has rubbished claims he harbours dreams of joining Manchester United or returning to Liverpool.
He told the News of the World: "I've only been at Newcastle two years and the speculation's been unbelievable. At the end of every season people were asking 'Is Michael Owen going to stay or not?'
"I live up there and my kids have been to school up there for two years. There is this perception that I divide my life between living in the north west and Newcastle.
"Well, I'm up there Monday through until Saturday. If we get a Sunday off, I'll sometimes fly out after the game and spend the day with my parents and family.
"Then I'll fly back up on Monday and spend the rest of the week there. Even my team-mates say 'Are you up here today?' and I say 'Yes, like I am every day'. Since I've been at Newcastle people have been thinking I'll leave. A lot think there's an agenda but there's not.

Current_Issue.tar.gz - No Room for Smugness (Well, Maybe a Little)
I remember July 19, 2001, fairly well. Yes, it was my birthday, but more profound than that was the Code Red Internet worm (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_Red_worm) that was at its peak infection point. Because I was the network administrator for a school district, the summer was spent upgrading and reinstalling servers to prepare for the next year. The Code Red onslaught was a great reminder that I needed to patch the few Windows servers I administered. Unfortunately, my main Windows machine already was infected, and at that point, we weren't entirely sure how much hidden damage was done to the machines. Because it was summer, I decided formatting the hard drive and starting over would be the easiest way to be sure my server wasn't infected. Because it was summer, the downtime wouldn't really be a problem, and reformatting Windows computers tends to make them work a bit better anyway. So that's what I did.
The problem was that before I even could download the security patch, my Windows server would become infected. I tried the "race" a handful of times, but in the end, I had to put my Windows server behind a Linux firewall/proxy machine that would protect it while it updated. I won't lie; using Linux to protect my Windows server during the upgrade did make me a little smug. I even bragged to my fellow school technology directors (most of whom run Microsoft shops) about how impervious Linux is to attack.
Then, in September, the Nimda worm (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nimda) crippled my Linux Web server.
Granted, my server didn't get infected with the worm, because like Code Red, Nimda targeted Microsoft's IIS server. The sheer number of concurrent infection attempts, however, effectively caused my poor little Web server to stop responding. It was then that I really began to realize how security is an active process, not just the result of smart planning. We don't all need to be security experts, but if we're in charge of any computers, we need to be aware of the tactics and tools available to protect them. Here at the Linux Journal office, we decided the perfect way to start the new year would be with an issue devoted to security.
One of the first obstacles to securing your infrastructure effectively can be the sheer size of it. It's true that command-line administration is quick and easy, but if you have hundreds or thousands of servers, even the command line can be overwhelming. Kyle Rankin shows us a few shortcuts he uses to connect to multiple servers via SSH.
Our own local security expert, Mick Bauer, continues his series on securing Samba. Mick shows us that the best offense is a good defense, and starting with a secure configuration is the key to sysadmin bliss. Jeramiah Bowling broadens the scope and details how to test our entire system's security. If you don't test your security for vulnerabilities, you can be sure someone else will.
If you want to get real serious about catching the bad guys, be sure to read Grzegorz Landecki's article on detecting botnets. They tend to be scary, because a large enough botnet can take down even a secure server. Early detection is key—well, that and a geographically diverse network infrastructure. For most of us though, early detection is about the best we can do.
Speaking of bad guys, this issue will make you happy to know that Kyle Rankin hasn't chosen the Dark Side of the Force. This month, he also explains how to attack computers that aren't even powered up. Did you think powering off a computer cleared the RAM? I did, but Kyle gives us a whole new reason to stay up at night worrying. His article is a tutorial on how to exploit the few seconds it takes for RAM to "forget" its contents. I'm sure the article is intended to teach us how to best secure ourselves from malicious attempts to do the same, but it's truly scary how simple the process can be.
This issue of Linux Journal is bound to appeal to everyone on some level. Whether you need to learn about secure authentication with PAM, or you just want to learn about new products, get a few tech tips and catch up on our latest programming column, you'll want to secure this issue under lock and key. Otherwise, someone like Kyle might sneak in and take it.

Internet drug purchases included in spending bills
WASHINGTON The Senate dealt a blow to the drug lobby Thursday by voting to permit people in the United States to order lower-cost drugs from Canada over the Internet.
The prescription drug plan, by Sen. David Vitter, R-La., passed the Senate by a 55-36 vote that added it to a $42.9 billion bill funding the Homeland Security Department. The Senate then approved the homeland security measure by a 84-6 vote Thursday night.
Critics said Vitter's amendment would open a gaping loophole that would expose people to Internet scams and unsafe drugs, but the allure of importing U.S.-made drugs from other countries where government policies have driven prices lower has long had a pull on lawmakers.
But so too has the drug lobby, which has always defeated attempts to allow consumers widespread access to "reimported" drugs. Several Democratic leaders, including Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada and his top lieutenant, Dick Durbin of Illinois, initially opposed Vitter's amendment, only switching their votes after it became clear the popular idea would pass.
Their doubts about the idea may ensure the drug importation rule gets dropped during House-Senate negotiations on a final bill. Currently, U.S. travelers may return with a three-month supply of drugs when crossing the border.
The development capped a day of dizzying activity on Capitol Hill on six different spending bills for the 2010 budget year.
First, the House passed an agriculture bill that pays to add millions of people to the food stamp program. A popular program that gives additional food aid for children and pregnant women received a 10 percent increase in funding.
The Agriculture Department announced this week that a record 33.8 million people – or 1 in 9 Americans – were participating in the food stamp program as of April, the rolls swollen by rising unemployment. That's up 1.2 million people from two months earlier and up 5.6 million from the same time last year.
The House then approved by a 318-106 vote $49 billion for foreign aid and the State Department budget. The bill included aid to Afghanistan and Pakistan, critical U.S. allies in fighting the Taliban, and to Israel and Egypt, as well as money to fight AIDS and hunger in the developing world.
To blunt criticism that they were boosting foreign aid during a deep recession, Democrats argued that the measure represents a $1.2 billion cut of more than 2 percent from current-year funding. Republicans countered that the measure would provide a $12.2 billion, 33 percent increase over 2009 levels. The difference of opinion involves whether "emergency" money provided in fiscal 2009 war funding bills should be part of the calculation.
The truth is somewhere in between, but at a minimum, the House measure provides a 4 percent increase over current funding. That's because Democrats used the war funding bill passed in June to pre-fund $2.4 billion worth of next year's aid to Israel, Egypt and other countries.
The Senate homeland security bill also contains a GOP plan to extend permanently the E-Verify program, which uses the Social Security database to check whether workers are in the country legally. It would also require companies doing business with the federal government to use the system.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|3 - 7 nights
A place for your family to remember for generations. Cape Cod style cottage looks directly down Lake Huron on the Straits of Mackinac. Sand Beach. Four bedrooms, one bath. Home is in pristine condition,
Located on a 100 ft. sandy beach with incredible views of the Straits. Watch the freighters go by while swimming in crystal clear water. A Boater's paradise. Back yard is heavily treed, growing wildflowers and miniture purple iris.
Find unbelievable fossils along the shoreline, or catch the deer, turkey or fox as they walk by! The home is 1170 sq ft, completely furnished, washer/dryer, with a 24 x 10 screened in porch. Electric baseboard heat, anderson thermopane windows. Take a ferry from Cheboygan, Michigan or fly in. During the winter months enjoy flying in and riding your snowmobile. This is the family cottage you have always wanted to visit!
The island brings back many memories. I spent my summers here as a child staying with my friend and her grandmother. My husband I spent our honeymoon in the Beard cabin. I've come back for our 25th anniversary and now our 50th. This time we brought our daughter, son, daughter-in-law and 2 granddaughters. It's been wonderful.
Stayed here four days with three other couples. Great location only two miles from the ferry dock and a 1/4 mile to Bob-Lo Tavern. Beds were good, the house was well furnished except for hand towels in the bathroom. One bath, but plenty of room for all. Nice screened in porch and awesome views of the lake. I would stay here again anytime!!
Clean and comfortable. Lots of amenities. Exceptional location and setting.
Really nice quiet vacation!
The house was nice, close to the water and had a great view. The house was also well equipped with a lot of extras such as: an aluminum boat, life jackets, fishing poles, bicycles, umbrella and chairs (by the lake) as well as a nice place for a campfire with firewood also supplied. Inside the house was neat and clean, well equipped with satellite TV and most pots/pans that you would need. The island was nice as well with some beautiful inland lakes. Point Aux Pins is a charming community. Hawks Landing was a nice store and restauarant with great food! Supplies are limited on the island so I would recommend taking what you need with you. There is a super Walmart in Cheboygan that is not far from the ferry dock.
Thank you for a great stay!
Cincinnati, Ohio
The cabin was excellent, a great vacation spot. It was clean, equipped w/ many extras (fans, games, water shoes, other misc things) and the water was clear. The lake had a mostly rocky bottom, but there were sandy spots in many places. It is mostly private-there are two houses next door but the layout makes it feel private. The fire pit is wonderful in the sand, not far from the water. The bathroom is very large which is great if the house is full-everyone's stuff can fit very easily. Also there are hooks to hang clothes in every room-I thought that was a great touch. There are two rooms upstairs w/ great breezes, and two downstairs. The living room is large and has an open concept into the kitchen/dining. Along w/ that the screened in porch has a large table w/ chairs and a couch for games on warmer nights. The tavern is very close, less than a 1/4 mile and Hawkes landing (the store/restaurant) is about 2 miles away. One thing of note-the store does not have many supplies. If you don't want to leave the island make sure not to forget anything. they have ice, ice cream, beer, snacks, milk, eggs and things like that-If you don't see it, ask someone at the counter. We wanted a specific beer and thought they did not have it, we asked and it turned out they had some in the back. They also have some movie rentals and souveners, and an analog gas pump that is expensive so get your gas on the mainland!
All in all, we could not have been happier w/ this cabin and our vacation there. It was hot and sunny, it was a white sandy beach, and the house was comfortable. I hope to go back there again in the near future for "The Caribbean in Michigan".
This house is perfect! The pictures don't serve it justice. Plus it's been redecorated. We had so much fun. Even our two 2 year olds had a great time. We will be back next year.
Boating, swimming, fishing, reading, walking and just plain relaxation!

Range of motion is the degree of movement a joint has when it is
extended, flexed, and rotated through all of its possible movements. A joint
becomes stressed or overextended if it is moved past its natural range.
A person may increase a joint's range of motion through regular,
gentle stretching exercises as directed by a health professional. Often these
exercises are recommended after an injury or surgery to help prevent joint

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
Tablet Plus
The Standard High Line New York
848 Washington Street, New York City, NY, USA
Neighborhood: Manhattan - Meatpacking District
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
André Balazs's line of Standard hotels took its time getting to New York. Now it seems they were waiting for something big, and this is it — for a group that's made its name with clever renovations, a ground-up new build is a major undertaking.
The Standard looks more or less like a slightly bent UN building on stilts, straddling the High Line, the elevated former railway that's been turned into lower Manhattan's new green paradise. Even the interiors feel a bit utopian, decked out in a retro-future style that pays homage to Scandinavian mid-century modernism — a welcome departure from the faux-Romantic grittiness that seems to prevail in the Meatpacking District.
Bedrooms are compact, this being Manhattan, but they're made bigger by clever planning and expansive views — New Jersey, in particular, looks good from this angle. The bathrooms are raising eyebrows for their transparent lack of privacy, but this place is for lovers, not room-sharing businessmen or pairs of traveling missionaries.
- Complimentary upgrade upon hotel check-in, based upon availability
- Guaranteed 3pm late check-out

- Stayed November 2011
- Rating: Poor
What I liked:
- The location in the Meatpacking District is excellent
- The Standard Grill is still one of the best restaurants in NYC
What the hotel could do better:
- Staff was generally obnoxious and more concerned with being trendy than helpful (especially front desk and concierge)
- Room was extremely noisy with music pumping until 4am both nights (no sleep)
- Tiny rooms, even for a Deluxe King (the smallest room I've seen in NYC)
- Clifford
- Stayed January 2012
- Rating: Excellent
What I liked:
Atmosphere, location, view
What the hotel could do better:
Nothing, had a wonderful stay!
- Fraser
- Stayed November 2011
- Rating: Poor
What I liked:
Architecture, location, decor
What the hotel could do better:
The hotel service, particularly the ambivalent management, was pathetic. The policy of asking guests to queue to get into their own hotel bar is perverse. It was so shambolic we checked out and went somewhere else which was far superior. I would not go again if I was paid to do so.

From the privacy of the cottage you can watch the ever changing patchworks, the planting and harvests, the early morning mists and shadows, the lakes, the huge moons and crystal clear starry skies, the setting sun on the white stone houses of Ste Alauzie hamlet, turning to burnished gold Catch the far reaching sight, of Lauzerte, the bastide hilltop village, 25 kms away, but you can see the church windows! The aquatain blond cows, grazing across the valley A piece of heaven! A painters delight!

The Lot Valley has become one of the favourite destinations for the British in recent years and if you've already been you'll know why. It's immensely difficult to single out any particular attraction created by nature in the Lot as taking precedence over another, but most probably the jewels are: St-Cirq-Lapopie and the Gouffre de Padirac. Both are in the Parc Naturel Régional des Causses du Quercy which sprawls through most of the area swallowing up nearly all of the main sites.
Cordes sur Ciel
St-Cirq-Lapopie dramatically overhangs the Lot perching as though it's been carelessly flung on to some hugely outsized shelf and been clinging on ever since. The spectacle is the main draw, as although the village's narrow streets with its artisan shops make for a pleasant enough wander, the castle which once defied Richard the Lionheart is now a ruin.
From high up to low down, the crater of Padirac (near Rocamadour) - formed by the collapse of a cave - has some of the most stunning natural galleries iced by stalagmites and stalactites. Highlight of a visit here is the Salle du Grand Dôme, an immense underground space which could easily swallow up several of the area's cathedrals.
Local Village
Rocamadour with its cluster of medieval houses, battlements, towers and churches seems to be not so much perching on a rocky peak above the Alzou valley, as sprouting from it. Early morning visitors driving along the approach road, via the village of L'Hospitalet, will see the sun seeming to cast a luminous shawl over it. If you visit later and leave in the evening you get the more artificial, but none the less attractive, son et lumière effect.
The village became one of the most revered centres by pilgrims following the discovery of an ancient grave with an undecayed body, said to be that of St Amadour, an early Christian hermit, in 1166. A spate of miracles followed the discovery, putting a holy seal on the village.
Other attractions here are Foret des Singes, 130 monkeys living in total freedom. La maison des Abeilles, and Rocher des Aigles over 100 rare species of birds, demonstrations of Birds of prey in flight.
You can only explore properly by foot but the seven chapels, basilicas and museum accessed by the grand stairway (the pilgrims did the 216 stairs on their knees) easily consume a day. The old town is now pedestrianised and despite its main street being lined with souvenir shops they don't detract from Rocamadour's enduring appeal.
Outside the park's boundaries lies the easily walkable city of Cahors and its landmark Pont Valentré. The bridge - six pointed arches, three defensive towers ,spanning the Lot, make up the best surviving fortified river span in Europe. Cahors is better known in the UK for its wine and the many vineyards dotted along the Lot river. Excellent wine tasting.
Famous Montcuq Market
Cahors and Cajarac has the Quercyrail tourist train. The diesel locomotive trundles through the amiable scenery along an otherwise redundant line. There are various round trips on offer ie. boat with( optional lunch on board) one way, return by train or stopping off at a chateau.

I have run Loustalnebe cottage for 25 years with never bad reviews. I do not accept that the cottage was dirty at all. The fosse did block and it was dealt with the same day
The smell was a mystery It may have been the dishwasher not being used. The client could not find anything that did smell
There was the option of parking well away from the barn but whilst in the hangar I provided a cover for the car There is a lot of dust in August due to harvesting
I can provide hundreds of testimonials of satisfied clients some returning as many
as 20 seasons I have a large database of satisfied customers
I did have some work on the barn 70 meters away from the cottage garden out of sight of the cottage, for a duration of one week, during working hours and it did offend my clients so I cancelled the builder. I refunded 200 pounds and offered a free future week for any inconvenience caused
I do regret this incident and have tried to make amends

Financial Sector FDI and Host Countries: New and Old Lessons
|March 2007Volume 13, Number 1
|JEL classification: F3, F4
Author: Linda S. Goldberg
Foreign direct investment (FDI) into the financial sectors of emerging economies soared during the 1990s, leaving many countries with banking sectors owned primarily by foreign institutions. While the implications of FDI into emerging markets are well documented, less clearly understood is how the host countries are affected by financial sector FDI specifically. An understanding of this relationship is crucial for countries formulating policy with respect to foreign banks. This article argues that many lessons learned from work on FDI into manufacturing and primary resource industries apply directly to host-country financial sectors. The author provides evidence on such themes as technology transfers, productivity spillovers, wage effects, macroeconomic growth, and fiscal policy to show that financial sector FDI into emerging markets generally has positive effects on the host countries. In banking and finance specifically, she argues that financial sector FDI can potentially strengthen institutional development through improvements to regulation and supervision.

Tuukka Rask Says Bruins' Comeback Win 'a Long Time Coming,' as B's Get Aggressiveness Back In Game (Video)
Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 11/14/14
ATLANTA - NOVEMBER 19: Goaltender Tuukka Rask #40 of the Boston Bruins against the Atlanta Thrashers at Philips Arena on November 19, 2009 in Atlanta, Georgia. (Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images)
Tuukka Rask made 23 saves in the Bruins' shootout win over the Toronto Maple Leafs Monday night. That defensive performance anchored the team's rallying effort in which they came back from a 2-0 deficit to win. The B's were finally able to show some much-needed aggressiveness in the matchup, reminding fans of the character of the team, which has struggled to capitalize on offensive opportunities as of late. Rask told Naoko Funayama it's been a "long time coming, coming back from a two or three goal deficit." Check out what else Rask had to say in the video above.

Hmmm... Summary! Born in Tennessee and grew up...
Hmmm... Summary! Born in Tennessee and grew up in Florida - I moved here from the Pennsylvania two years ago now. Seattle has been good for me, even with the rain. I do wish we had an extra winter storm or two, a foot of snow on the ground used to make Pittsburgh seem very quiet and clean. I write software and do some video game artwork. I enjoy being creative and entertaining people is a satisfying side effect. I end up spending a lot of time in front of computer screens, and in my free time I really want to be outdoors. If you like to walk, run, hike, bike, ski, or climb, you and I are going to have some fun together. This isn't to say that I don't enjoy an afternoon at the cafe, or a lazy night watching movies. My friendships are an important part of my life, and each is unique to me. I think most people I know would describe me as thoughtful, kind, and funny. I can entertain a crowd if need be, but I'm more comfortable in a party of four - I think it makes for better conversations. I've been trying to spend more time talking with the random people I meet on my way, but sometimes I forget to take off my space helmet.. In a relationship I am independent, confident, and comfortable with commitment. I'm a flexible planner and good at caring for others.

Hey, that smells like Frank – body odor ID is on its way
By Ben Coxworth
February 4, 2014
Move over, fingerprints, iris scans and facial recognition, because a new form of biometric identification may soon be joining you – body odor. According to scientists at Spain's Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, peoples' unique scent signatures remain steady enough over time to allow for an ID accuracy rate of approximately 85 percent.
First of all, why is another form of biometric ID even needed? Well, as the researchers point out, people can sometimes be reluctant to place their finger or eye up to a scanner, particularly if they've got a criminal record. Odor-reading sensors, however, could conceivably just give those people an unobtrusive sniff as they passed by.
The university is now developing a system in collaboration with tech firm Ilía Sistemas. Although it's still not as accurate as police bloodhounds when it comes to identifying people by their smell, and despite potentially odor-altering factors such as changes in test subjects' diets, its margin of error is currently down to about 15 percent.
What does this smell tell us about their health or other things about them?Ben O'Brien
I'm imagining a computer tasked with this job becoming self-aware at some point in future. Maybe that's why the machines in the Matrix decided to put humans in pods. It all began with teenage boys but then they decided it was just easier to do everybody.SamB
I worked as a nurses aide for ten years, and I learned to identify people by their scent during that time. I think it's quite a feat to teach a computer to do the same!Bridgid Newman-Henson
Then it will analyse what you've consumed, who you've been near - all by smell. Facebook & Google will be rubbing their hands for this data...whodackie

I don't get the feeling Gordon will ever be league average with the bat, even for a SS. He's going to need to put a better defensive showing to become a passable SS.

that they're being discussed?
settle down
I think you're underrating how valuable Ike is/can be
To us Ike may be untouchable, but we've been hearing speculation that the Front Office may not feel that way. Which is why I'm worried he may be in the deal.
salaries would match. thole + dickey = buck
there we go

that's all based on speculation, cerrone is an idiot

Mets are also almost certain to get a pitcher back.
My unrealistic side of me says Syndergaard
Mike Puma @NYPost_Mets
If Thole goes, Mets could bring back a second catcher in the deal, I'm told. Probably John Buck.
Dickey + Thole equals Buck's salary, so the money would be even there
I'd have to believe one of the players going to the Blue Jays will be Familia/Flores
where are you hearing that? there was one with the fake ny post twitter but that was debunked
oh shiet
I don't think it's much worse than the regular referees, but my god these guys just give terrible spots.

Queen Latifah is getting ready to swath her fans in regal style from head to toe with her upcoming HSN collection.
You wear her makeup, and dab on her perfume, but now you can step into her swag. Women's Wear Daily reports that Latifah is getting ready to launch a line for HSN dubbed Queen.
The line, which forgoes the term "plus-size," will feature a range of products from leggings and jeans to hair extensions and hand bags. And she's not discriminating by dress size, the Queen collection will come in a range of fits.
"It is a word we need to bury at this point. I wanted to make something size two and up," Queen Latifah said, explaining why she doesn't want to attach the term "plus-size" to her products."
It's wise of the Queen to keep her target market broad, but it's more than a business decision. At the base of it, she just really doesn't want to leave anyone feeling left out.
"The truth is, we all would like to wear the same clothes," said Latifah. "We all want to wear beautiful, fly clothes no matter what size you are, and so for me it was important to match with a company that understood and respected that ideal."
But bigger girls will be pleased to learn that Latifah wasn't going to launch a line unless it did justice to all shapes and sizes. And by that we mean having the option of wearing something other than baggy, boxy, ill-fitting duds that so many other designers have marketed to full figures.
"I felt like larger girls were not respected, even though we are huge consumers," Queen Latifah said. "I felt the marketplace didn't respect us in the way it should. I was not going to step out with a clothing line that didn't respect a fuller-figured woman or a curvaceous woman, and really all women."

Hyundai, Kia workers vote to strike
SEOUL – Workers at top South Korean carmaker Hyundai Motor voted Wednesday to strike for better pay and working conditions — a year after ending the costliest dispute in the company's history.
Ignoring an appeal from management, labor unions at Hyundai and its affiliate Kia Motors opted for industrial action, which will begin after a legally-binding period of mediation which typically lasts around 10 days.
Hyundai's union wants a 130,500 won ($120) increase in basic monthly salary for workers, a performance-based bonus equivalent to eight month wages and a one-off shared cash payment for members amounting to $2.4 billion — or 30 percent of last year's net profit.
Kia's union has presented similar proposals.
The Hyundai management had tried to avoid a costly stoppage with a message to unionized workers saying the company could not afford to meet their demands at a time of heightened competition and slowing growth in overseas markets.
"We've seen a decline in our earnings because foreign brands quickly eat into our domestic market share and the economy at home and abroad remains sluggish," the message said.
The union staged 28 partial strikes between July and September last year, cutting production by more than 82,000 vehicles valued at 1.7 trillion won ($1.5 billion).
Kia lost an estimated 1.03 trillion won to industrial action in 2012.
Hyundai's second quarter net profit this year fell 1.0 percent from a year earlier to 2.52 trillion won.
