CANBY, Ore. -- A probe into police use of steroids has stretched into Portland and beyond, according to a new report.
Canby's police Chief Greg Kroeplin resigned last year amid a probe into allegations that he failed to investigate an officer's alleged steroid abuse.
The Oregonian reported Monday that Washington County narcotics dog handler Jared Gochenour and West Linn Officer Jess Riley also resigned and that a Portland officer was now under federal investigation.
Canby Officer Jason D. Deason, 38, was indicted on charges of official misconduct and possession of a controlled substance and resigned in July 2008.
Portland police Sgt. Charles Brown,who lives in Canby, was also under investigation, the Oregonian reported, but the FBI would not talk about the ongoing case.
One of Deason s suspected suppliers, was arrested in February. William J. Traverso, 38, was charged with theft, possession of a controlled substance and delivery of a controlled substance.
FBI agents say Traverso acknowledged selling steroids and human growth hormone to Deason. Traverso gave agents an April 30, 2002, order from Deason for steroids, written on Canby police stationary, according to affidavits.
Two other men are in federal custody accused of selling stolen firearms to Traverso.

Click here to view an animated version of this procedure.
The tonsils are glands in the back of the throat. A tonsillectomy is the surgical removal of the tonsils.
Reasons for Procedure
Tonsillectomy is most often done when other nonsurgical treatments have not worked for:
- Chronic or recurrent tonsil infections—Tonsillectomy may reduce the number, but will not completely eliminate these infections.
- Peritonsillar abscess—pocket of infection spreading outside the tonsil
- Enlarged tonsils causing obstruction of the throat
|The Tonsils
|Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Possible Complications
Problems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your doctor will review potential problems, like:
- Bleeding
- Temporary breathing problems
- Adverse reaction to anesthesia
- Vomiting and dehydration
- Infection
Factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
- Obesity
- Smoking
- Poor nutrition
- Chronic illness
- Sickle cell anemia
- Bleeding disorders
- Recent or current steroid use
- Diabetes
- Taking anticoagulants or aspirin products
- Dehydration
Be sure to discuss these risks with your doctor before your tonsillectomy.
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Your doctor may:
- Do a physical exam of the tonsils, throat, neck, and possibly other parts of the body
- Order blood tests and a urine test
- Review your medical history and current medications
Leading up to your procedure:
- Talk to your doctor about your current medications. Certain medications may need to be stopped before the procedure.
- The night before, eat a light meal. Do not eat or drink anything after midnight.
General anesthesia is most commonly used. You will be asleep for the procedure. If necessary, the surgery can also be done with sedation and local anesthesia.
Description of the Procedure
The anesthesia will be given through an IV or by a mask. The doctor will grasp each tonsil with a special tool. The tonsils will then be cut away from the surrounding tissues and removed. The tonsils may be cut out with a scalpel or hot knife. An electrical current or clamps and ties will be used to stop bleeding at the site.
|Tonsil Removal
|Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
How Long Will It Take?
About 20-60 minutes
Will It Hurt?
Anesthesia will prevent pain during surgery. Pain and discomfort after the procedure can be managed with medications.
Average Hospital Stay
This procedure is most often done in a hospital setting. It may be possible to leave the hospital on the day of the procedure. Some patients may need to stay in the hospital for up to two days. Talk to your doctor about what is right for you.
Post-procedure Care
At the Hospital
- You will be monitored for any negative reactions to anesthesia or other complications.
- After you are fully awake, alert, and stable, you may be able to leave. Arrange for a ride home from the hospital.
At Home
When you return home, take the following steps to help ensure a smooth recovery:
- Take medications that are prescribed as directed.
- Avoid talking, coughing, and singing for one week.
- Drink plenty of fluids.
- Avoid spicy, acidic, and hard-to-digest foods.
- Eat soft foods, such as gelatin and pudding, for 3-4 days after surgery. Gradually return to a normal diet.
- Avoid swallowing hard items such as crackers and hard cookies. They may injure the back of your throat.
Call Your Doctor
After you leave the hospital, contact your doctor if any of the following occur:
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Redness, swelling, increasing pain, excessive bleeding, or discharge from the site where the tonsils were removed
- Nausea and/or vomiting that you cannot control with the medications you were given after surgery, or which last for more than two days after discharge from the hospital
- Pain that you cannot control with the medications you have been given, especially if it prevents you from drinking fluids
- Cough, shortness of breath, or chest pain
- Spitting or vomiting blood
- New, unexplained symptoms
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Customer Reviews of Peerless Tilting Wall Mount for Medium 23"- 46" LCD Screens - Silver
Easy to install, versatile, works exactly as descr8/22/2007
I used this mount with my Westinghouse 30" LCD, model LTV-30W2. I mounted it up high on our bedroom wall (on studs behind drywall) and angled it down towards our bed. It was very easy to set the angle and the one-touch feature is great, although I prefer to lock the angle using the included screws. I felt this mount was extremely sturdy and I had no concerns about the weight of the LCD or it's stability. There are openings in the mount that could be used to route wires through the wall, which I eventually plan on using. I highly recommend Peerless LCD mounts!
Nice but not for 42" plasmas8/12/2007
Although this is a very nice mount, especially for the low price, it will not work on a 42" plasma, because the mount is too narrow. You should visit the manufacturer's website to get the correct mount size for your TV. Other than that, for this low price, there really isn't a better choice.

1. Field of the invention
The present invention relates to a device for eliminating adipose layers and to an associated technique for carrying out this elimination using said device.
2. Prior art
The reduction of subcutaneous adipose layers constitutes one of the most important areas of aesthetic treatments.
Two techniques currently exist for this purpose. The first technique, known as liposuction, consists of introduction into the adipose layers of probes roughly 5 mm in diameter through holes made in the skin of the patient undergoing treatment, for suction and removal of fat. This technique has a number of disadvantages, such as the creation of a lack of homogeneity in the form of depressions in the zone of insertion of the probe which are visible from the outside, as well as excessive bleeding of the patient undergoing treatment. Furthermore, both the cells of fat and the stroma are sucked out non-selectively.
The second technique utilizes subcutaneous ultrasonic probes to rupture the membrane of the adipose cells, thus causing the escape of liquid which then has to be sucked out subsequently. In this case, suction of the stroma is not brought about and bleeding is therefore more limited. However, the disadvantage of the lack of homogeneity of the treatment remains.
The aim of the present invention is to produce a device and an associated method for eliminating adipose layers which do not have the disadvantages mentioned above.
In particular, a first aim of the present invention is the production of a device and a method which allow uniform treatment.
A further aim is the production of a device and a method which allow selective elimination of the adipose cells without damaging the stroma.
Yet another aim of the present invention is the production of a device and a method which eliminate the problem of bleeding and which reduce the dimensions of the holes for insertion of the probes.
These and other aims and advantages, which will be clear to experts in the field from reading the text which follows, are obtained essentially with a device which comprises a first laser source, optical fiber conveying means for conveying the laser beam emitted by said first source, and a hollow needle for guiding the fiber, said fiber ending in the vicinity of the end of the needle.
With this device, it is possible to implement a method for the reduction of subcutaneous adipose layers, on the basis of introducing into said subcutaneous adipose layers a laser beam at an intensity and at a wavelength which are such that the lipolysis of the adipose cells is brought about, that is a rupturing of the membranes of the cells themselves, with consequent transformation of the adeps into a liquid substance which is then sucked out or preferably left in place in order to be drained by the lymphatic system and by the action of the phagocytes. In addition to a clear reduction in traumatism and greater selectivity of the method implemented in this manner in comparison with the liposuction system, the advantage is also obtained that the energy of the laser beam can be used to cauterize the small blood vessels which may be damaged by the insertion of the needle into the adipose layers. Loss of blood is thus virtually completely eliminated.
In practice, the needle is borne by a hand unit which, in order to be more easily maneuverable, is inclined in relation to the needle.
In addition to a laser source which emits at a wavelength and at a power which are such that lipolysis is brought about, it is possible, with the same optical fiber, or with an additional optical fiber guided in the same needle, to convey into the adipose layers a beam of visible light which makes possible transcutaneous vision during implementation of the method.
Further advantageous characteristics of the device and the method according to the invention will be described below.
The invention will be better understood by following the description and the attached drawing which shows a non-limiting exemplary embodiment of the invention itself and in which:
FIG. 1 shows a diagram of the device;
FIG. 2 shows an enlarged longitudinal section of the hand unit of the device in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 shows an enlargement of the point of the needle, and
FIG. 4 illustrates the use of the device in an example of application.
With reference initially to FIG. 1, the device comprises a laser source 1 of the NdYAG type, with which an optical fiber 3 is associated, which conveys the energy of the source 1 toward a hand unit 5 equipped with a hollow guide needle 7 with a beveled end (FIG. 3). The needle has an external diameter of, for example, roughly 1 mm. The terminal end 3A of the optical fiber 3 ends at the point of the needle.
In the example illustrated, the needle has an inclination in relation to the hand unit 5 of roughly 10-30 degrees and preferably 15-20� to facilitate its use.
In FIG. 2, a possible system of fixing the fiber 3 can be seen, which comprises an elastic sleeve 11 accommodated in a seat 13, through which the fiber 3 passes and which is clamped by means of a threaded ring nut 15.
In the example illustrated, the device comprises a second laser source 21 which emits radiation in the visible range which is conveyed by means of a second optical fiber 23 to a connector 25, in which the visible radiation emitted by the laser 21 is introduced into the fiber 3. In this manner, the optical fiber 3 conveys to the point of the needle 7 a laser beam in the visible range also which allows the operator, in reduced ambient light, to follow accurately (by transcutaneous vision permitted by the transparency of the skin) the position of the end of the fiber and therefore to control the instantaneous point of application of the laser energy generated by the source 1.
The laser source 1 emits a beam which is preferably pulsed, at a wavelength between 0.75 and 2.5 micrometers, for example at 1.06 micrometers, with an energy level between 30 and 300 mjoules per pulse. The wavelength is preferably between 0.8 and 1.1 micrometers.
The device described above is used as follows: the fiber is inserted subcutaneously into the patient, in the adipose layer to be eliminated. The end of the fiber 3 thus comes directly into contact with the adipose layer. The laser beam, in the appropriate dosage, brings about the rupturing of the membranes of the adipose cells and at the same time cauterizes the very small veins contained in the stroma, which can be easily damaged by the penetration of the needle 7. In this manner, the adeps becomes liquid and at the same time a local hemostasis is created. The liquefied fat is then absorbed by the body by lymphatic drainage and the action of the phagocytes, while subsequent intervention, similar to that carried out in the case of treatment with ultrasonic probes, to remove the liquefied fat is not ruled out.
In practice, the needle 7 is initially inserted subcutaneously and is then moved forward and backward by the operator for the time which is necessary according to the characteristics of the tissue also and which is easily determined by the operator. Typically, to achieve the lipolysis of an adequate quantity of adipose cells, treatment with an energy level of 100 mjoules for a time of 200 microseconds per pulse is appropriate; the needle is kept in each penetration hole for a few minutes.
The movement of the point of the needle is easily controlled by means of the transcutaneous vision allowed by the visible laser beam generated by the second source 21. Lipolysis action is thus brought about in a certain portion of tissue. By extracting the needle and inserting it subcutaneously in an adjacent position, a subsequent portion of tissue is treated. From one and the same entry hole, the needle 7 can be inserted in various radial directions, treating an entire area of the tissue, as can be seen in FIG. 4, where 31 indicates in broken lines as a guide the insertion lines of the needle 7.
The end part of the needle 7 can be knurled in order to cause, during penetration of the adipose layers, a rupturing of the adipose cells and therefore in order to obtain greater effectiveness of treatment. In FIG. 3, the knurling is indicated diagrammatically by Z.
It is intended that the drawing shows only an example given only by way of practical demonstration of the invention, it being possible for the invention to vary in form and arrangement without moreover leaving the scope of the concept which forms the invention itself. Any presence of reference numbers in the enclosed claims has the purpose of facilitating reading of the claims with reference to the description and to the drawing, and does not limit the scope of protection represented by the claims.

Nissan has built a Batman-themed Juke
To celebrate the release of the new DVD, Nissan is giving away a one-off car. And asked us to help…
Posted: 30 Nov 2012
Darryl showed us to the underground viewing room to take a look at a prototype version of the Dark Knight Rises Juke they've had mocked up. It doesn't have all the final details, like the trick pool lights or the guns we'd requested, and it wore a matte wrap instead of paint. But it did give an impression of what the real thing would look like.
"The Juke is a good car to work with", claimed Darryl "It's characterful and its face has a personality. We've tried to bring that personality out and make it a bit meaner by de-saturating trim and blacking out parts like the fog light surrounds and headlights."

What is the difference between perimeter and outrigger frames? Which is better?
Durable, solid, real buildings are built on perimeter frames, not outriggers. During transportation perimeter frames carry a building to your site with much less road flex, meaning fewer repairs on site. The outrigger frame, by comparison, is not as rigid. Also, the perimeter framed buildings work well over a basement, which is considered relatively inexpensive space, meaning more square footage and design flexibility. A four-unit perimeter framed building has 33% fewer piers than a corresponding outrigger building. Perimeter frames are far better.
What do I need to think about in the 'pre-planning' stage of my project?
– Does a site exist and when will it be available?
– Length of occupancy; lease or purchase?
– Proposed occupancy date and how much time in advance to place your order?
What questions should I ask about budgeting and financing a modular unit?
Have I explored all financing options, including costs for set up, delivery, architects, engineers and inspections, as well as bonding and insurance costs?
What should I consider when designing my new project?
– Will the building be on a permanent or temporary foundation and how will it be divided?
– What type of roof system is appropriate for the climate?
– What kind of interiors and exteriors?
– Will there be restrooms and where should they be located?
– Are there special mechanical, electrical, safety/security and communication needs?
– Can the building be expanded?
– Are there specific lighting, flooring, and teaching aid needs?
How do I winterize my modular structure?
– All water lines should be drained, making sure the water heater is drained, the breaker is in the "off" position, and anti-freeze solution fills all waste traps.
– Open-sides of the modules should have shipping walls in the proper locations (constructed with 24″ sheathing strips at the edges) and be wrapped with white or clear, .6 mil or better, shipping plastic.
– Plywood or paneling strips should be nailed to secure plastic which runs under the roofing and over the bottom board, ensuring that water will not get into open floor and attic casings.
– The hitch and rear end of the unit are supported to protect wall covering and siding from cracking and warping.
– Clean out roof drains, gutters and downspouts. Verify that any roof drain piping is stubbed to the exterior of the unit and inspect roof seams, window and door caulking. Make any necessary repairs before the start of Winter weather.
Office Trailers
How many tie downs are required for office trailers if necessary?
8 wide trailers: 4
10×36 trailers: 6
10×44 trailers: 8
10×50 trailers: 8
12×60 trailers: 10
Double wide: 12
Who do I need to contact if tie downs are requested?
If you need tie downs, you need to call and get a DIGSAFE number. You can get this by calling 1-888-DIG-SAFE.
Do office trailers come with bathrooms?
Yes. Trailers can be ordered with or without a bathroom dependent on availability. If necessary, a bathroom can be modified into a closet.
What do I have to pay tax on?
Tax is charged based on the state the equipment will be located. Typical taxes include sales tax on the rental of the equipment and sometimes property tax charged by the city where the equipment is located. If your state charges tax on services, such services such as delivery, pick-up, set up and knock down charges are taxable.
Who is responsible for permits?
>The customer is responsible for contacting the local authority (building inspector) to obtain the permit necessary to get an office trailer in the town in which it will reside.
What optional features are available for office trailers?
Optional features include security screens, door bars, skirting, tie downs and stairs. Stairs are optional and are not included in the price of the rental. In addition, Triumph offers our NextGen green mobile offices where you can pick and choose the green features for your trailer.
What are the electrical and plumbing requirements?
8′ wide trailers use a 60 amp service and 110 volts. 10′ & 12′ wide trailers use 100 amp service and 220 volts. Multi sectional trailer's amperage ranges from 100-150 amp service per piece.
Who is responsible for electrical and plumbing hookups?
Your office trailer comes standard with heat/ac (and a restroom if you choose one), to be tied in at your site. As a leasee, you are responsible for making these connections. Both are stubbed out of the bottom of the trailer and accessible to your electrical and plumbing contractors.
How do I maintain my heating & A/C unit?
Identify the model of the HVAC unit installed on your structure. Such things as filter size and quantity will vary with unit size.
Bard units are provided with one 1-inch disposable filter (the higher capacity units have two), located behind the "filter access door." This is the middle panel on the front of the unit. Check the condition of your filter and replace annually, or more often if the HVAC equipment is operating in a dusty environment, (in which case, the 1-inch filter can be replaced with a 2-inch filter.) Please note: a 2-inch filter will cause some loss in airflow and should be checked monthly. A dirty filter will degrade the performance of your heating/cooling system, and increase your bills. Replacement filters are available from any hardware store or heating/cooling equipment supplier.
A Bard unit will have either a manual outside air intake damper (standard) or a "commercial room ventilator" (if ordered). Both of these devices serve to supply fresh air to the interior of the structure, and may be adjusted for efficiency and economy. The commercial room devices open when the unit is operating, and automatically close when the unit shuts down. Adjust the damper to the minimum opening that provides sufficient fresh air; the more people in the building, the greater the damper opening should be. If the outside air intake device brings too much air into the trailer, cost will be increased. However, a certain amount of fresh air is necessary to maintain indoor air quality. We do not recommend setting the outside air intake to a fully closed position. During the winter months, close the outside damper to a degree that will ensure comfort for the occupants.
Conditioned air is supplied via a ceiling duct. One or more ceiling mounted supply diffusers distribute air to each occupied room or area and are equipped with dampers that allow adjustment of air volume. The amount that each damper is opened may vary between heating and cooling operation and can be easily adjusted to ensure occupants are comfortable.
The Bard unit is equipped with a simple Manual Changeover type thermostat (the thermostat must be switched manually between heating & cooling). Do not use the thermostat as an on/off switch or set the thermostat higher or lower than the desired temperature. This WILL NOT heat or cool the space more quickly, but will result in increased operating costs. If the thermostat is not programmable, manually setting the temperature to 55 degrees (heating season) or 85 degrees (cooling season) when the building is not to be occupied (nights and weekends) will save energy and money.
The thermostat has a switch for indoor fan operation, labeled "auto" and "on". In the Auto setting, the indoor fan will run only when the thermostat calls for heating or cooling. In the "on" setting, the fan will run continuously. Fresh air is only brought into the building when the indoor fan is operating. During temperate periods, the fan switch should be set to "on" to enable fresh air to enter.
Most modular structures are equipped with electric heating systems. Heating systems are designed to maintain indoor temperatures during the AVERAGE coldest and warmest periods. These temperatures are established by the various state building, mechanical and/or energy codes. Generally, both heating and cooling capacities are slightly in excess of what is necessary to meet winter and summer temperatures.
It is critical to verify the incoming electrical service voltage to the modular building. The capacity of electric resistance heating is rated at 240 volts. As the service voltage drops, so will the heat output from the unit (cooling is not affected). It is not uncommon for service voltage to be less than 240 volts. In most temperatures, an under-voltage condition will not be noticed. However, in extremely cold weather, the HVAC unit may not be able to maintain the set temperature. Also, the fresh air intake should be adjusted accordingly—on very cold days the damper should be only slightly open if it is noticed that the Heating unit cannot bring the temperature to the thermostat setting.
When a heating system is first started for another heating season, there may be a "hot" smell for several moments after start-up. This is normal with almost any type of heating equipment.
A "HEAT PUMP" is actually an air conditioning system running in reverse. Heat pumps may be the most efficient form of central heating equipment for moderately cold temperatures. In areas with colder winters, heat pumps can still provide a very economic heat supply down to about 25-30 degrees F. Below this temperature, the heat pump will become less effective. Because of this, your unit is also equipped with electric heat. Below 30 degrees, the heat pump will shut down and the electric heat will automatically operate.
A heat pump will not supply heated air as warm as from conventional electric or gas heat. Because the air is moving, it may feel cool… This is normal for a heat pump that produces warm air only in the 80-90 degree F range. Note: when the heat pump is operating, it will periodically go into "defrost" mode, and generate clouds of steam at the outdoor condensing unit. This is normal.
Many modular units are now shipped with natural gas heat. Bard offers a conversion kit to change over from natural gas to propane. Be sure to inspect the heating unit prior to connecting any gas source to make sure the proper orifice is in place. A Bard gas furnace operates the same as any found in most homes today. Servicing of the gas appliance itself is best left to a professional.
Filter replacement and damper adjustments are accomplished in the same manner as outlined in the paragraphs above and can be accomplished with minimum effort.
Can I winterize my unoccupied office/modular unit?
Yes. Make sure all water lines are drained, the water heater is drained, the breaker is in the "off" position,
and anti-freeze has been poured into all waste traps. Make sure the open sides of the module have shipping walls in the proper locations. Shipping walls should be constructed with 24″ sheathing strips at the top, bottom, and mid-point. Shipping walls over the axle assembly should have sheathing at full height. Make sure the open side of the building is wrapped with white or clear shipping plastic (minimum 6 mil). Plywood or paneling strips should be nailed to the shipping walls and unit corners with double-headed nails to secure the plastic. It is also a good idea to run plastic strapping the full length of the unit to assist in keeping the plastic in place.
Shipping plastic should run under the roofing and over the bottom board. This will ensure that water will not get into the open floor and attic cavities.
Make sure the hitch and rear end of the unit is supported. This will keep wall covering and siding from cracking and warping. It will also help keep door and window openings plumb.
Make sure roof drains are open and free of debris. Also verify that any roof drain piping is stubbed to the exterior of the unit.
Make sure gutters and downspouts are clean and free of debris.
Inspect roof seams, window and door caulking. Make any required repairs before weather arrives so water cannot seep in during the time the unit is idle.
It is imperative that the roof is cleared of all heavy snow loads during the winter. Flat roofs are inclined to collapse if the snow and ice builds up and becomes too heavy for the trailer.
What are some spring maintenance tips for Office Trailers?
– Check caulk around windows and doors and replace if necessary.
– Check siding. Loose siding could suggest water damage or the growth of mold. Make sure fasteners and trim are tight.
-Check the roofing for bubbles or bulges in rolled roofing. Look for curling or missing shingles. Make sure the drip edges are in good shape and push water away from the siding.
– Check flashing to make sure it will not allow water infiltration.
Check for broken glass in windows and doors and inspect the ease of opening and closing doors and windows.
– Check latches, hinges, locks and strike plates.
– Check your doorstops.
– Check the undercarriage for animal nests or vermin damage.
– Check to make sure the wheels have not settled into mud. Lack of proper support may cause interior panels to pull away from stud walls. Power wash the outside of the building, including windows and doors.
– Check drains, downspouts and elbows for nests and other obstructions. Run water through the drain to be certain it is functioning properly.
– Check plastic wrap for rips, tears or holes that would allow water damage or nesting birds.
– Check tire pressure and condition.
– Replace air filters. Run the heating system to remove "start-up" smell and see it runs properly.
– Test run the A/C units at all speeds and settings.
– Look for signs of water leaks.
– Check the lights, electrical outlets and other fixtures and replace if necessary.
– Tighten drain connectors and check water lines to make sure nothing has frozen; faucets, drains and toilets are in working order.
– Test interior doors and cabinet closures. Again, check hinges and handles.
– Perform touch-up painting, trim repair, and general cleaning.
– Walk the floor to check for humps, loose tile and torn carpet. Look for stains and other damage, especially ceiling tiles for rain damage and for loose grid work.
– Check all battens for adhesion. Check drywall seam lines for separation and warping.
Do office trailers have desks, file cabinets or other office equipment?
Yes. Each unit comes with built in desks, 2-drawer filing cabinets and a plan table.
Can I order an office trailer in a specific color?
Custom colors are available for purchased trailers only. Please specify your color choice or requirements.
Storage Containers
Are ground level containers stackable?
Yes. We can deliver and double stack containers to maximize storage space.
How much do Storage Containers weigh?
20 ft. containers weigh 5,015 lbs. empty. 40 ft. containers weigh 8,377 lbs. empty.
What are the available sizes of ground level containers?
20 ft. and 40 ft. containers; custom sizes are also available.
I'd like a container with doors at both ends. Do you have this feature or other custom features available?
Only purchased containers can be customized to your requirements.

Dont engage enemy if they are facing you. Run away from engagements and try to catch a different enemy in an awkward position. If they chase you lure them to your teammates. If you see a teammate fighting some1. Help no matter what.
On that note
Try to lure the enemy into thinking your an easy frag. When they attack you it's much more easy for you team to take out the enemy as they are concentrated on you and bunched up for easy pickens.
I for 1 think grouping up is a very bad move. I've seen it so many times. The enemy groups up and eats spam and rails from every direction. Good players get chewed up just like the bad players. That strat doesnt give good players any room to shine.
And on top of that it gets extremely boring when 2 teams bunch up in different areas and spam at each other from different room. I think maybe grrrdian doesnt enjoy playing CA as I see that frame of mind used from duelers who have no real depth in the CA world

My thighs and arms are the first to lose. I've lost almost 30 pounds and none of that has come off my waist, boobs or face. I haven't dropped any clothing sizes and no one has noticed that I've lost any weight yet. The legs of my pants are really loose but I can't go down a size because they are still too tight in the waist. Similarly, the sleeves of my shirts are loose but I can't go down a size because the boob area is still too tight. When I was in high school, I joined Weight Watchers and I didn't start losing in my waist until I got down to the 160's. The lowest I got was 165 and my upper stomach was gone and my lower stomach was shrinking fast. I'm assuming the same thing will happen this time. I can't wait to get to the 160's to find out (I'm looking forward to having only one stomach again). I'm hoping that the next 10-20 pounds will show in my face as I really want some cheekbones and a defined jawline (and no double chin).

Did you uninstall the 45.23 driver, shutdown, power back on, and then install the 45.33 driver? You probably did but it's worth mentioning just in case you did not. If you did follow this procedure, did you notice that your card was running much hotter? That could be a factor and the 45.33 has been known to increase temps by around 10 degrees or so. That isn't enough extra heat to really matter but I wouldn't rule it out. Maybe try running with a room fan blowing into your case...just to find out if heat may be the problem or not. Also, if you had been overclocking your card I'd suggest going back to default clocks and re-incrementing from there to determine stability with the new drivers. Good luck!
This is a test of faith I tell You. Yes, i have installed the new driver (45.33) by the 'book'. Surely my card a bit hotter as the core temp raised from 40 celsius to about 50. People say it's not much and I'am also confident it cannot be the problem. About the ventillation in my case: I have a Chieftec Dragon Series: DA-01W full tower with fans installed in every possible spots, round cables and huge empty places. I also have a 550W Enermax PSU (actually I bought it because the flickering problem
). As for the overclocking, I never rised my 5900's core or memory frequency by a single MHz. All I did was a huge underclock to get rid of the flickering. Interestingly it was gone when i underclocked my card to 100-150MHz.
I think NVIDIA shoould start an open source project and make their driver codes available for the public. We shall launch a petition. It can't harm anyone.

Navy moves to put women on submarines
On blogs and online networking sites, wives of submariners have warned that the close contact could lead to sexual temptation and other complications.
"I completely believe this would put strain on some relationships because there are trust issues," said Jennifer Simmons, whose husband serves on a submarine at Kings Bay. "It's asking for sexual harassment cases left and right. If you're trying to go through a passageway together, guess what – you're going to touch."
The Navy bans "fraternization" between unmarried men and women. Punishment can range from a letter in the offender's file to a court-martial. Navy officials said they had no immediate figures on reports of fraternization aboard its ships.
The rule change that allowed women to serve on combat ships was pronounced a success by the Navy long ago. But it was not all smooth sailing.
In the mid-1990s, the aircraft carrier Eisenhower was nicknamed "The Love Boat" after 15 women became pregnant and a man videotaped himself having sex with a woman. However, the Navy said 12 of the women who conceived did so before boarding the ship, and the three others got pregnant during shore leave.
Officials said the paperwork for changing the policy on submarines is being drawn up and could be finished by the end of the month or early November, after which it would be sent up the chain of command and then to Defense Secretary Robert Gates for his approval. If Congress wants to block the move, it must pass legislation.
Key military leaders have already said they favor changing the policy that has allowed women on all surface ships since 1993 but still bans them from submarines. Women are allowed to serve on subs in a few countries, including Australia, Canada, Norway, Spain and Sweden.
McKinnon, the former base commander, said he suspects unhappy spouses would be the biggest obstacle to a change in policy. He acknowledged that sailors serving undersea together for weeks without surfacing form close bonds.
"I think there's this concern that if you have women out there, they're going to develop feelings for each other and have bad things happen," McKinnon said. "I think that's a natural thought. But the surface Navy's come through it."
He added: "You work with women in the workplace. You should be able to work with them on submarines."
Associated Press writer Pauline Jelinek contributed to this story from Washington.
Russ Bynum has covered the military based in Georgia since 2001.

In order to construct an entity with quite a lot of information, I need to performe a sequence of forms submitting. Every time I return a view from a controller, I need to pass some id's about the not yet established entity. Right now I inject these pieces of info into hidden fields, and when post back to server, continuing to construct the entity. This scenario continues for a few times. I'm very not satisfied with this way of passing sensitive information, and was wonder if there're other more appropriate ways of doing it. I use authorization and authentication, but still worried of some scenarios in which one user could hack these id's, before sending it back to server, and by that, modifying the wrong entity.
Also, seems kind of hard work to pass back and forth the same data. I disqualified the use of sessions, because it reveals a different kind of data disruption threat . (in case of using more than one browser at a time).
How should I perform the mentioned operation?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21): According to visionary astrologer Elias Lonsdale, the age-old war between good and evil is over. His shocking conclusion: Evil lost. It will take a while for its malignant dominance to ebb away, and the transition time may bring apparent setbacks, but already the momentum has shifted. The forces of good are in ascendancy and will steadily build a new order in the coming decades. Is Lonsdale's perspective true? I personally don't have the wisdom to be able to confirm or deny it. But I do know this: The age-old war between good and evil within you is over, and evil lost. From now on, the forces of beauty, truth, love, and justice will grow in power.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19): When playing bridge, you're fortunate if you're dealt no cards of any particular suit. It allows you to use the trump suit to win tricks. There's an analogous situation in your life right now, Capricorn. A lack of a certain resource can work to your advantage. It will allow you to be a free agent, an X factor, a wild card. You'll be able to capitalize on loopholes that aren't normally available to you. Luck will come to you through what you're missing.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18): Last May, workers cleaning up garbage on Britain's highest mountain made a startling find. There at the top of Mount Ben Nevis was a piano. How did it get there? Three years earlier, hikers in Indiana's Yellowwood State Forest stumbled upon an equally inexplicable anomaly: a massive boulder lodged in the topmost branches of an 80-foot-tall chestnut tree. These are your metaphors of the week, Aquarius. I bet that you, too, will find seemingly out-of-place things in high places. Don't dismiss them with a flick of your rational mind. Give them a chance to change your thinking about the nature of reality.
PISCES (Feb. 19March 20): Millard Fillmore was president of the United States from 1850 to 1853. He was the last holder of that office who was neither a Democrat nor Republican. Let's make him a symbol of freedom from the rigged con game that is America's two-party political system, as well as an inspiring image for those of you who aspire to rise above every either-or dichotomy. Fillmore will be your mascot as you declare your independence from the dualistic ways of thinking that threaten to ensnare you. He'll be an emblem that rouses you to transcend the simplistic arguments spewed by fanatical devotees of the "us versus them" racket. Escape the vise, Pisces.

Final Score: Virginia Commonwealth 73, Alabama 54
Richmond, VA (Sports Network) - Troy Daniels led four Rams who scored in double figures with 16 points as Virginia Commonwealth completed a 73-54 rout of the Alabama Crimson Tide at the Siegal Center.
Treveon Graham added 14 points and six rebounds for VCU (7-3), which picked up its fourth win in a row. Melvin Johnson chipped in 12 points off the bench, Rob Brandenberg tallied 10 points, and D.J. Haley anchored the defensive effort with two blocks.
Devonta Pollard paced Alabama (6-3) with 13 points and Levi Randolph netted 10 points. The Crimson Tide have now lost three in a row. The contest was the first return to the Siegal Center for Anthony Grant, who coached VCU to a 76-25 record in three seasons from 2006-09.
The Crimson Tide got off to a slow start and managed to connect on just 35.3 percent of their field goal attempts in the first half. VCU took a 33-18 lead into the intermission after it forced the visitors into 13 turnovers in the opening 20 minutes.
Johnson and Daniels combined for 17 second half points to help the Rams extend their advantage after the break. VCU drained 57.1 percent of its field goals in the second half while Alabama converted 13-of-15 attempts at the charity stripe, but went 10-of-24 from the field.
Alabama finished with a season-high total of 18 turnovers, which the Rams converted into 19 points.

Father-son bonding
In a secluded health resort in Batangas, Inquirer ran into Robin Padilla and his son Ahmad Ali.
Born Robinhood Sicangco, Ali is vacationing with his father while on school break from Australia, where he lives with his mother Liezl.
The 13-year-old has expressed his desire to be a boxer like his namesake idol. So the doting dad took him on a weekend to The Farm at San Benito to get him started, by teaching the boy to care for his health and diet.
Photo shows their choice of healthy drinks: Buko juice for Robin and watermelon juice for Ali.
Robin tells Ali "to treat boxing strictly as a sport; you don't have [to] hate your opponent."

Iguazu HotelsThe small Argentinian city of Puerto Iguazu sits at the confluence of its neighbors, Brazil and Paraguay. A vivacious hub studded with top notch shopping and dining haunts, chic resorts, and unique attractions, Iguazu is also a gateway into the sprawling Misiones Rainforest – home to a stunning display of flora and fauna. Iguazu's biggest lure however is one of the most impressive and beautiful waterfalls in the world - a sight to which Eleanor Roosevelt once exclaimed "Poor Niagara".Things to seeA lush subtropical rainforest spanning 212 square miles, Iguazu National Park is home to one Argentina's most famous natural wonders. The roaring Iguazu Falls stand at 269 feet high, stretching for 1.7 miles across the border between Argentina and Brazil. Semicircular in shape, multiple cascades of water tumble down, often creating rainbows in the mist. If you want to learn more about the Misiones Rainforest, visit La Aripuca. The museum teaches visitors about the devastating effects of deforestation, along with a collection of fascinating exhibitions on the indigenous Guarani people and their culture. The center is a vast log structure, modeled on an "aripuca", a Guaraní snare used to capture animals without hurting them. If you're looking to bag a bargain, the Puerto Iguazu Duty Free Shop offers a great value retail therapy session. The large mall is well stocked on all the things you wish were cheaper, such as alcohol and perfumes.Hotels in IguazuIf you're all about the finer things, the luxury hotels in Iguazu do them well. From plush pampering spa resorts to glitzy casino hotels, the well-heeled are well catered for. Glamorous rainforest accommodations offer a Ritzy Swiss Family Robinson stay, where lagoon like swimming pools, indulgent treatments and fine dining are all on the menu. The larger mid-range hotels in Iguazu offer style, comfort and a trove of amenities. Pools and gyms are common, whilst in-room features such as internet access and cable television are to be expected too. Iguazu is also home to a handful of no frills budget hotels and hostels, should you want a thriftier stay.Where to stayA hotel in Iguazu's downtown places you at the historic heart of the city. The sunny leafy streets are home to an array of Argentinian eateries and quaint shops, along with glam casinos and glossy malls. The port area offers catamaran and boat cruises along the idyllic Iguazu River, whilst the subtropical splendor of the national park is just a short journey away. For a stay in the rainforest itself, look to 600 Hectareas. Home to numerous upmarket resorts, here it's luxury under the lianas, where you can enjoy a massage whilst listening to a canopy concert of exotic birdsong.How to get to IguazuCataratas del Iguazu International Airport is the main gateway into the region for most visitors. Whilst it serves a handful of flights to nearby destinations, many international visitors will need to connect via a larger airport, such as Ministro Pistarini International Airport in Greater Buenos Aires. Once you've landed at Iguazu International you'll find plenty of taxis and buses outside, should your hotel not be providing you with a complimentary transfer already. If you need a cheaper way into Iguazu, direct bus and coach services from Buenos Aires, Rio de Janeiro and other cities are also available.

Abbas Insists on East Jerusalem
Palestinian Pres says he'll compromise on lots, but not that
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's refusal to freeze construction in East Jerusalem or to permit that issue on the negotiating table is a leitmotif throughout Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's new interview in the Wall Street Journal: he keeps returning to it, citing it as the obstacle in the way of direct negotiations on a final settlement. An example:
Netanyahu says, 'I call on Abbas to negotiate, but he has to understand that Jerusalem is the eternal capital of Israel, that's not up for discussion. The refugees—there will be no talk about them at all. He has to recognize Israel as a Jewish state.' So who is putting conditions. I'm not putting them. He is putting conditions.
The "refugees" issue—the so-called right of return, which may be the one topic even more toxic to the Israelis than East Jerusalem—appears to be something Abbas could give up. "We are serious in building peace with you," he tells the Journal, when asked what his message for Israel is, "in building a Palestinian state that lives side by side with Israel on the '67 borders in peace and stability. … If we reach a final solution, we will drop all kinds of other demands." (My emphasis.) A call for two states frankly implies no right of return anyway. We could be persuaded away from it, Abbas seems to say, but only if our state is delineated by "the '67 borders." Those borders locate East Jerusalem in Palestine.
