Exploring the future for IMS; RCS, VoLTE and Real Time Web Communication
Informa are very pleased to announce the opening of the IMS World Forum 2015. We are currently pulling the agenda together and would love to hear your input on topics and themes for the show. We will be looking to address a number of themes
- WebRTC
- VoLTE
- VoWi-Fi
There have been an increasing number of end-to-end IMS core solutions being adopted, delivering converged solutions from a single common platform, enabling some fantastic next-gen services such as VoLTE to begin to proliferate. 2015 will prove to be a pinnacle year – a gradual build up of many, many months of deliberation and testing to finally getting these services onto live networks.
We hope to speak to as many of you as possible – we would be very interested in hearing how your own solutions and roll-outs are currently being adopted, planned and then implemented over the next 12/18 months.
Feel free to contact me email@example.com to discuss your plans
- Find out the role that WebRTC is playing in IMS based networks
- See the latest roll outs of VoLTE
- Understand VoLTE and RCS convergent platforms
- Hear the latest views from Telco trials on functional and architectural aspects on WebRTC
- Join in the discussion in a wide range of panel discussions
- Analyse the recent deployments in RCS as a mass market service
- Learn best practice for partnering and working with application developers
- Address complexity concerns surrounding current IMS architectures
- Hear how best to position IMS technology as an enabler for enhanced services
- Find out the latest developments in operating IMS via the cloud
- Discover how best to facilitate interoperability with OTT players
This highly focused workshop will bring together deep technical and deep business thought leadership on WebRTC with Alan Quayle, providing attendees with a unique independent workshop.
Providing a deep-dive quantified analysis of the WebRTC status, enabling attendees to understand what is likely to emerge over the next 18 months to 2 years, in this complex rapidly emerging ecosystem and what it will mean to their business.
Martin Geddes from the Hypervoice Consortium will lead this workshop. This half day training will show you the drivers in value-added voice services and can demonstrate operator experience of voice service innovation. Further case studies will review emerging opportunity areas in Call recording, next-generation conferencing, enterprise social voice and call tracking.
Following last year's success, the IMS awards will once again recognise achievements made by those in the IMS industry. Entries will be accepted from the 28th January – 15th March when our judging panel will receive and begin to review the submissions.

Mets give away 4,000 tickets to military members and their families for Tuesday's game at Citi Field
May 2, 2011, 10:04 PM EDT
The Mets announced earlier this evening that they have donated 4,000 tickets to military members and their families for tomorrow night's series opener against the Giants at Citi Field.
This gesture is in addition to the Mets' current policy that allows free admission to any active service member who presents a valid military I.D.
Here's the full text of the press release from the team:
The New York Mets today announced the team has donated 4,000 tickets to military members and their families for tomorrow's game against the San Francisco Giants at Citi Field.
Working in conjunction with the USO, the Mets distributed 2,000 tickets to tomorrow's series opening game with the defending World Series champion Giants to all five branches of the military – Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard.
In addition, the first 2,000 members of the military who show a valid military I.D. at the Day of Game Ticket Sales Window at Citi Field will receive complimentary tickets for themselves and their guests. Military personnel can receive their tickets, limited to six per party, starting two hours before tomorrow's 7:10 game.
Marine Corps veteran Sgt. Elizabeth Quiñones will sing God Bless America during the seventh-inning stretch of tomorrow's game.
Today's donation compliments the Mets' season-long policy of providing a complimentary ticket to any active service member who presents a valid military I.D. at the Citi Field ticket office.
I would normally say something playfully sarcastic like the Mets can't give these seats away, but this is a classy move by the organization. I can't wait to see the atmosphere at Citi Field tomorrow.
- joeflaccosunibrow - May 2, 2011 at 10:32 PM
Good news is that 4,000 seats will be filled. Bad news is that 46,000 will go unfilled.
- kellyb9 - May 3, 2011 at 9:22 AM
I'm a huge Phils fan, and as much as I'd love to use this as a backhanded insult to the Mets, this is really a great idea. I'm suprised teams that can't regularly sell out don't do this more often. As long as you get people in the door, they'll spend money on stuff like food and beverages.
- dirtyharry1971 - May 3, 2011 at 9:35 AM
Im not a mets fan, if anything a big mets and silly phillie hater but where do you have room to insult any other fan base? 2 WS in like 150 years and the most recorded losses in MLB history is hardly grounds to go talk sh!t junor. Bet your a eagles fan too cause they do the same thing
- kellyb9 - May 3, 2011 at 11:14 AM
I was actually pointing out that the comment above was basically insulting the Mets fanbase saying that 46,000 seats were going unfilled, and how I felt that it was a good idea for the Mets right now to distribute unused tickets to military personnel, but since you brought up the topic, I'm sure I'll have a hard time getting over all those losses before I was even born… i might even lose sleep over it… who knows.
- Utley's Hair - May 3, 2011 at 12:14 PM
kellyb9, dirtyharry1971 is nothing but a troll, and it's best to just ignore the jagoff or he'll follow you around taking unprovoked shots. It does appear that he has discovered the shift button recently, so there might be some hope that he'll grow into a civilized person—though I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it.
But I see your point—the Mets do need some sort of good PR right about now, and what better way to accomplish some of that than to give out tickets to people who might spend money while they are there?
- Old Gator - May 3, 2011 at 1:47 AM
Here's hoping our troops get their hands on them and use them before Irving Picard demands them back.
- paperlions - May 3, 2011 at 8:06 AM
Are you saying the Mets are engaged in a ticket ponzi scheme, and that the tickets they are giving away are really the tickets invested in accounts of other fans and not profit tickets?
- BC - May 3, 2011 at 10:26 AM
If I recall, Baltimore has done this for years. Still though, good PR and MUCH more importantly good for folks who've sacrificed for our country in whatever way.
- rateyourseats - May 3, 2011 at 3:35 PM
This should be standard practice among most professional sports teams — all year round. If you're one of the military members getting free tickets, we'd love to hear about your experience on RateYourSeats.com (http://www.rateyourseats.com).

I simply copied that to the folder that had my shortcut, deleted the old utility, and everything was fine. I had to change the options though for it to work.

Germany and the United Kingdom have 18 of the 30 most polluting energy plants in the European Union, according to a study by green NGOs, funded by the European Union.
All but one of the EU's most polluting plants were coal-fired, according to the report, Dirty 30, by a coalition of environmental NGOs, including CAN Europe, the WWF and the European Environmental Bureau.
Germany is the country with the most electricity generated by coal, followed by Poland in second and the UK in third.
The Bełchatów plant in Poland topped the list of heavy polluting plants, followed by Neurath and Niederaussem in Germany. The UK Drax power plant came in sixth. Greece and Italy also had power plants in the top 10, Agios Dimitrios (8) ad Brindisi Sud (9), respectively.
The data for the report came from EU countries' submission to the European Commission for the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) for carbon dioxide.
Increase in electricity generated from coal
The report, which received EU funding, showed that between 2009 and 2012 there was a slight increase in electricity generated from coal, despite it being regarded as one of the most polluting fossil fuels.
The report, published yesterday (22 July), attributed the increase to existing coal plants running at near full capacity, rather than the creation of new plants, due to the low market price of coal.
"With the low coal price and the price of CO2 on the international market (in the emissions trading system) and the high gas price, we have a risk, especially with the energy security debate, that there will be a push for more indigenous fossil fuels," said Darek Urbaniak, an energy policy analyst with the WWF.
Coal is one of the most abundant and easily extractable fossil fuels in the European Union. The EU has shale gas deposits but these are regarded as more complex and expensive to exploit, due to the geological depth of the deposits and the required method of extraction, hydraulic fracturing, or 'fracking'.
Green NGOs also point out that the low price of coal undermines the switch to less-polluting renewable energies. Germany is planning to open new lignite mines in the east of the country, on the Polish border. Poland is also making similar plans on the other side of the border.
Germany has begun phasing out its nuclear power generation, since the Fukushima disaster.
Commission to make announcement on UK electricity proposals
The European Commission is due to make an announcement today on whether to allow the UK to continue plans to develop a so-called capacity mechanism for energy generators.
The UK government is concerned that the country will not have enough electricity capacity to meet peak demand in the coming years.
In Britain, electricity generators bid to secure a government contract to provide grid capacity. Under the new capacity mechanism proposals, generators could secure a contract of up to 15 years.
The coal-fired generators, which are likely to be able to bid at the lowest price, could then use the payments they receive for winning the bid to invest in upgrades. Many UK generators already need to do this to comply with EU rules in the Industrial Emissions Directive.
UK generators could then, effectively, be using the payment akin to a subsidy to allow them to comply with another EU law. This may then mean that they fall foul of EU competition rules, analysts say.
"According to EU state aid rules, you are only allowed to give a subsidy to an undertaking if it is to do something that the undertaking wouldn't have done anyway," said Maria Kleis, a lawyer with Client Earth. Governments are allowed to subsidise activities that match certain political priorities, such as renewable energy generation, that may face market barriers.
Environmentalists are also concerned that the capacity mechanism could lock the UK into coal-fired electricity generation for 15 years, three years after its power sector is supposed to be decarbonised so as to meet the targets in the Climate Change Act.
"Giving power stations like coal that really have no place in a low carbon electricity system subsidies for that long is crazy from a perspective to decarbonise and also from a perspective of air pollution," said Jenny Banks, of the WWF's UK office.
Poland, France and Germany are also looking into capacity mechanisms as an energy strategy.
Kathrin Gutmann, coal policy officer at Climate Action Network Europe, said: "Coal-fired power plants are the single biggest global source of greenhouse gas emissions. CO2 emissions from coal in the EU are still far too high, as shown by the EU's 'Dirty 30 power plants'. The EU needs to tackle coal head on, if it wants to successfully meet its own long-term climate targets."
Christian Schaible, senior policy officer for industrial production at the European Environmental Bureau (EEB), said: "Europe's coal addiction is bad for people's health, bad for the environment and has no place in our sustainable energy future. Significant amounts of emissions could be prevented and reduced if operators would just use state of the art techniques available to them instead of arguing for exemptions. Environmental standards for power plants should first serve to protect the people and the environment in Europe and must be implemented swiftly to do so."
Julia Huscher, senior coal and health officer at the Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL), said: "Each of the largest coal-power stations in Europe is responsible for hundreds of millions of euros in health costs. The sheer amount of pollution they release, apart from the CO2 emissions, contributes to higher levels of particulate matter, which is a major health concern. In addition, only 30 power plants cause 20 percent of the health costs of the European power sector. The phase-out of coal in Europe will be a win-win, because it will help to achieve clean air for more people, and avoid further health damage from climate change."
Mona Bricke, European coordinator at Climate Alliance Germany, said: "The next phase in Germany's Energiewende must focus on how to transition away from coal. If Germany and the EU are serious about meeting their climate targets and transform their power sector, a German coal phase out is key. There is no way around that simple truth. The fact that 9 out of the 30 most CO2 emitting power plants are located in Germany, most of which burn lignite, is a case in point."

PUYALLUP, Wash. -- Police from out of state searched the Puyallup house of a missing woman's husband Thursday.
Utah detectives confiscated at least six computer towers from the Pierce County neighborhood home where Josh Powell and his two sons live.
Police conducted the evidence search all day in relation to the disappearance of Josh's wife, Susan. She vanished in December, 2009 from the couple's Utah home shortly after Josh and their sons left on a camping trip.
Josh has been considered a person of interest in Susan's disappearance from the beginning. He has not been arrested, and no arrests were made Thursday.
In an exclusive interview Thursday night with Dateline NBC's Keith Morrison, Josh Powell said investigators came to his house looking for Susan's private journals.
The warrant is to take Susan's journals and any digital copies of the journals. They said they want all the computers that could possibly have a copy of her journals, said Powell.
NBC's Morrison also asked Josh what he would say to those who think he killed his wife.
I have never hurt my wife...I have never hurt her, said Powell. She's been suffering, she has very low self-esteem because of severe emotional abuse as a child. She's had to live with that and I've had to try and help her get through that.
Susan is originally from Puyallup.
According to Steven Powell, Josh's father, the search focused on Susan s journals and anything electronic that could hold copies of the journals.
They re trying to make a spectacle of our family, said Steven. They re trying to make it look like we re guilty.
Video from SkyKING showed yellow police tape surrounding the house during the search, and several officers and civilians moving around the property. Powell's young sons were also seen in the backyard.
About 45 minutes after media learned of the search, Josh and the two boys were seen leaving the home in a minivan, where they later stopped at a McDonalds drive-thru, and later a playground.
Last week, police searched a remote Nevada location for Susan's body, and Josh told KING 5 News in an interview that he was overjoyed by the news of a possible lead. However, no evidence was uncovered from the location.
Steven called Thursday's search the second ring of a three-ring circus, and said, Who knows what the third ring will be. He said last week's search in Nevada was the first ring.
Joshua and Susan's father, Chuck Cox, were recently ordered to stay at least 500 feet away from each other.

2 x Borzage
Preservation funded by the American Film Institute/National Endowment for the Arts Preservation Grants program
History Is Made at Night (1937)
Directed by Frank Borzage
A swooning mash-up of comedy, melodrama, farce and tragedy, History Is Made at Night defies narrative logic to emerge, in Andrew Sarris' words, "a profound expression of Borzage's commitment to love over probability." After an unhappily married American woman (Arthur) meets a debonair Parisian maitre d' (Boyer), not her murderously jealous husband, a bad bouillabaisse, or an iceberg in the Atlantic, could keep them apart. Love means never having to apologize for impossible plot twists!

Secrets (1933)
Directed by Frank Borzage
Borzage's remake of his 1924 silent adaptation of the Besier-Edington play marked the final screen appearance of America's sweetheart, Mary Pickford. As the daughter of a 19th century New England shipping magnate, Pickford, in bows and curls, elopes with Leslie Howard's office clerk, who whisks her away to California to make his fortune. From a fairytale opening to the realism of the frontier, Borzage strikes a number of registers as he explores the perseverance of love from first bloom to old age.
The Pickford Corp. Screenwriter: Frances Marion, Salisbury Field, Leonard Praskins. Cinematographer: Ray June. Editor: Hugh Bennett. Cast: Mary Pickford, Leslie Howard, C. Aubrey Smith, Blanche Friderici, Doris Lloyd.

You don't often think of Alfa Romeo as being at the technical forefront of the car world. More the Versace to everyone else's Brunel. But not with the MiTo - it's the least attractive Alfa and with new MultiAir engines, it's now one of the most technically advanced.
As with all brilliant engineering solutions, the MiTo MultiAir offers an obvious answer and comes from the same guys who pioneered common rail fuel injection on the 156. Most engines have a cam which is the mechanical link between the crank shaft and the valves - you can make this connection complicated with variable valve timing, but up until now you couldn't time the valves independently of the cam. If you wanted a performance cam, you needed to leave the valves open for longer - fine for flat out driving, but you'd be wasting fuel in normal use.
What Alfa Romeo has done is to introduce an electronically controlled hydraulic link between the cam and the valves so that you get infinitely variable valve timing, because the electronics have replaced the cam as the brain of the valves. In the MultiAir, all the cam does is work the exhaust valves and provide the pressure for the hydraulics. So now when you press the throttle you don't work a butterfly in the throttle body, you control the valves via the ECU. MultiAir has ditched the pressure losses that butterfly valves create and made everything flexible and efficient.
The MiTo has a 1.4-litre turbo that gives decent outputs (133bhp and 133lb ft) but is also capable of scaling itself right back so that CO2 and mpg are better. It works brilliantly. Official figures put it at 50.7mpg and 129g/km and bothare impressive for a petrol, albeit a small capacity one, and are about 10 per cent better than the 'normal' engines. NOx emissions fall by a whopping 60 per cent. Incidentally, even though the MiTo has been out for under a year, all bar the low-powered petrols will be replaced by MultiAir units - 104bhp, this one and a 167bhp.
You can't feel any difference, apart from the turbo. Because pressure losses have been eliminated, this doesn't have to boost pressure as much, which means lag is almost non-existent. Alfa has patented the tech this time around - it didn't with common-rail and look how ubiquitous that became. If the reaction of an engineering pal of mine is anything to go by, MultiAir is heading the same way.

PUNXSUTAWNEY — Despite giving up a nine-point halftime lead in the third quarter, the Punxsy girls' basketball team battled back and outscored the Lady Dutch of St. Marys 20-8 in the final stanza to claim a 62-50 victory Tuesday night in Punxsutawney.
After the game, Punxsy head coach Randy Reitz said battling back and not quitting are traits his young team possesses as a strength.
"These girls battle the entire game, whether we're up or down," he said. "They're going to play hard for 32 minutes. It's just a trait of this team."
NEW BETHLEHEM — Punxsy wrestling coach Eric Eddy told anyone who asked him this week it would take "a perfect match" to beat Redbank Valley when the Chucks traveled there Tuesday night. Punxsy came within four points of reaching that match but fell just short in a 33-29 loss — one which saw Punxsy's Seth Spack reach the 100-win milestone to become just the fourth Chuck to do so.
Spack earned his 100th tonight, joining Neko Cappella, who did it this season, as well, and Matt Means and Kody Young as the only wrestlers in Punxsy history to reach the mark.
ST. MARYS — The Punxsy Chucks rode a five-game winning streak into St. Marys for a District-IX league game against the Flying Dutchmen, and in what Punxsy head coach Dirk Neal called a "flat out war," the Chucks headed home with six in a row with a 44-38 win.
"It was a blood bath," Neal said. "We had two starters foul out in Garrett Zimmerman and Alex Fedigan early in the fourth quarter."
Punxsy's sharp-shooting sophomore Brandon Mancuso also missed the game due to illness, but Neal said his squad stepped up and did what they had to do to earn the victory.

Orange preparing subsidized MacBooks?
updated 09:25 am EDT, Thu March 26, 2009
Orange bundling MacBooks?
International phone carrier Orange is preparing to sell subsidized MacBooks, according to Mobile. The UK magazine says it has learned that MacBooks will go on sale through Orange this summer, significantly discounted as a result of being tied to a two-year mobile data contract. No deal has been firmly cemented, but it is believed that negotiations are in a late stage, only requiring details to be arranged.
Orange is in fact said to have already tested MacBooks with its cellular modems, and agreed to a base volume of units from Apple. If completed, the deal will represent the first time a MacBook has been offered alongside cellular service. While other computer manufacturers have provided PCs to phone carriers, Apple has limited its cellular deals to the iPhone, and resisted integrating cellular receivers into computers due to excluding some carriers in favor of others.
Mobile suggests however that Orange executives see the current deal as a means of gaining access to future Apple notebooks, which might include some form of built-in cellular support. A potential candidate is Apple's widely-rumored netbook, which has so far been described only as using a 10-inch touchscreen. Cellular functions would require an HSPA or EVDO module and a SIM card slot.

Why You Should Always Use Nginx With Microcaching
Everybody knows how hard is to push out as much as possible from your webserver(s). In my daily occupation as a hosting engineer that means I fairly often get the same question, "Wow, cool website, but can it cope with big-time traffic?".
The "normal" situation
A "normal" website running under Apache with mod_php should be able to put out 20 requests per second with ease, but what if you get like 50 requests per second (not strange with some websites like websites for political parties etc.)? The answer in my opinion is to drop Apache, because as it is right now Apache just isn't cutting it anymore.
YES! Nginx!
In comes Nginx! So what you do is you set up your website on Nginx and you run a quick loadtest (for instance a 1000 requests with 200 concurrent users) and you see that you don't get much more than Apache, but how? It's real simple, it's due to the fact that Nginx doesn't have a php module built in so you would need a fastcgi processor to process the php pages (I suggest using php-fpm as it is better than spawn-cgi). So what should I use now you ask? Use microcaching!
What the hell is Microcaching?
What is microcaching? Well the theory is that you cache your files etc. for a short amount of time (like for instance 1 second). What this means is when a user requests the page it caches it so the next request for any other will come from cache, and with 100 users requesting within 5 seconds only 1 in 20 users will have to build up the full page (and with Nginx and a good structured site this isn't any problem).
I don't believe it!
You better believe it! Let me give you an example, take this website you are on right now. Let's say we have a loadtest of 1000 requests with 200 concurrent users. If you run this website under Apache you would get between 10-40 requests a second, max! And your webserver would be under some serious load and you would be forced to expand your environment. Under Nginx with php-fpm without microcaching it's the same thing (maybe a bit more requests but your server would have a lot of php-fpm processes running to process the requests). With microcaching you get a whopping 300-450 requests a second!
Ok, give it to me!
Microcaching is actually easy to set up, below is a example config that you could run for any website made with PHP (in this case it is specific for Wordpress). Take a look:
# # your website # server { listen 80; server_name <your hostnames>; access_log <your access log> main; error_log <your error log>; root <your root folder>; location / { index index.php index.html index.htm; } if (!-e $request_filename) { rewrite ^(.+)$ /index.php?q=$1 last; } location ~ \.php$ { # Setup var defaults set $no_cache ""; # If non GET/HEAD, don't cache & mark user as uncacheable for 1 second via cookie if ($request_method !~ ^(GET|HEAD)$) { set $no_cache "1"; } # Drop no cache cookie if need be # (for some reason, add_header fails if included in prior if-block) if ($no_cache = "1") { add_header Set-Cookie "_mcnc=1; Max-Age=2; Path=/"; add_header X-Microcachable "0"; } # Bypass cache if no-cache cookie is set if ($http_cookie ~* "_mcnc") { set $no_cache "1"; } # Bypass cache if flag is set fastcgi_no_cache $no_cache; fastcgi_cache_bypass $no_cache; fastcgi_cache microcache; fastcgi_cache_key $server_name|$request_uri; fastcgi_cache_valid 404 30m; fastcgi_cache_valid 200 10s; fastcgi_max_temp_file_size 1M; fastcgi_cache_use_stale updating; fastcgi_pass localhost:9000; fastcgi_pass_header Set-Cookie; fastcgi_pass_header Cookie; fastcgi_ignore_headers Cache-Control Expires Set-Cookie; fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$; fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info; fastcgi_param PATH_TRANSLATED $document_root$fastcgi_path_info; #fastcgi_intercept_errors on; include fastcgi_params; } }
You should also put in the cache format and cache zone in your nginx.conf, add these lines to your http {} block:
fastcgi_cache_path /var/cache/nginx2 levels=1:2 keys_zone=microcache:5m max_size=1000m; log_format cache '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" ' '$status $upstream_cache_status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" ' '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';
Try it!
I encourage everyone to try it for themselves and see the improvement in performance! I know it's a big switch to go from Apache to Nginx (config-wise) but you'll get the hang of it really fast!

Right now i have a WordPress blog with W3 Total Cache set for Disk (enhanced) page cache, Varnish, Nginx, PHP-FPM and CloudFlare Pro on top of all that. Speed is awesome, but i wonder if i could use microcaching in this setup? Was gonna try it last night, but there was too many visitors online.
If you already have other caching systems I don't think you need microcaching, from what I understand microcaching caches items that generally are so dynamic that usually are not cached, but caching them for only seconds can reduce the load if the requests towards those cached objects is at least at the order of hundreds per second...
Or maybe I am completely wrong :D
Hi, To answer your question simply, yes you can use Nginx microcaching with varnish, I did a test on a machine that has Varnish on port 80 and Nginx on port 8080
The microcaching comes on nginx layer which is cool and helps the server big time on nginx level.
I believe in caching so 2 3 layers of cache? If they don't conflict each other why not! :)
Thanks for the article.
However, a lot of sites now are 2.0, meaning that the data included in the pages change all the time, so that the building block isn't in the web server or even the web application, but rather in the database in the back. Keeping multiple DB servers with write accesses in sync is a much harder task.
Microcaching is so cool. It gives you the impression that the site is still dynamic, but greatly improves performance!

Your spinal cord starts at the base of your brain and ends in the LOWER region of your spine. A column of bones, called vertebrae, protects your spinal cord from injury.
Spinal stenosis occurs when there is narrowing of your spinal canal, compressing spinal nerves and causing pain, numbness, and muscle weakness most often in the arms or legs
For spinal stenosis of the lower spine, your doctor may recommend a lumbar laminectomy, where your surgeon will remove a part of your vertebrae called the lamina
to give more room for the spinal cord and nerves. The goal is to relieve the pain and discomfort of spinal stenosis.
During a lumbar laminectomy, your surgeon will make an incision in your lower back, pulling your muscles aside to expose the spine.
Then, your surgeon will remove bone and bone spurs that are pressing onto nerves in the area, and will also cut away thickened ligaments to decompress the area .
In some cases, spinal fusion may be necessary to stabilize vertebrae in the treated section.
In a lengthy operation, surgeons use bone and metal implants to hold vertebrae together while new bone grows .
After ensuring your nerves are free from compression, your surgeon will close your incision.

Great pedal feel and predictable response. I flushed the fluid (as always when changing pads) with the StopTech 660 fluid and the pedal travel is short and solid. The pads require some heat in them, but nothing more than from the couple of stops leaving my neighborhood. GREAT high performance street pads.
Great product!

The purpose of this study is to test empirically whether and how classroom and school factors contribute to student mathematics learning gains in the border region of North West province, South Africa and Southeastern Botswana. Our results suggest that in both regions, improving teaching quality has an important impact on how much mathematics students learn during the year. The amount of effort put into covering the curriculum and teacher mathematics knowledge are also important factors in the learning gains students make in grade 6 classrooms in southern Africa.

Hello boys and girls,
It's DIY Wednesday and this week I'm keeping with my glittery and sparkly gold theme to bring you a roundup of delicious DIY ideas to try out at home.
Gold mason jars: See here for a really simple tutorial on 100 Layer cake
I love this confetti art, really simple but so effective, would look fab adorning the walls of a more urban-chic style of wedding venue. Or even just an idea to try out at home. Tutorial here via Mint Love Social Club.
These gilded bottles are pure genius, perfect for adding a little elegant chic to a more rustic wedding style. They are made using gold foil candy wrappers, available from craft stores. Here's the how to on A Subtle Revelry.
I'm sure we all remember Carrie's giant flower from Sex and The City, it did have a certain bridal charm about it didn't it? I think it would make a wonderful wrist corsage or pin, maybe even a door hanging or something to hang over the back of your chairs. Whatever you choose for it, this lovely oversized flower will look just divine in an all white and gold scheme. Tutorial by The Gluten Free Honeybee.
More wall art, and this time we're going chevron. I'm a big fan of chevron and have seen it popping up all over the place on all manner of wedding decor pieces, from table runners, to plates. Again a simple but incredibly effective way to add a dash of colour to an otherwise blank canvas space. DIY Chevron Canvas Tutorial by Make Under My Life.
You can always rely on Martha to come up trumps in the crafting stakes. Here we have two ideas for incorporating that gilden effect into your wedding decor. The first are these rather special golden vessel centrepieces with silver effect numbers and gilded candle votives. And the second a golden guest book table using gold-leaf effect candy wrappers, placed inside glass hurricane lamps. Both via Martha Stewart.
Finally add a little bit of bling with these decorative gold leaf bowls, made from paper mache. Tutorial via The Happy Home Blog.
So that's my round-up of favourite golden DIY ideas for adding a little chic-sparkle to your wedding day decor. Do you have any other gilded craft ideas to share? Are you attempting any DIY projects yourself. Do tell us on the comments box below.

AT&T One Mini Android 4.4.2 rollout begins
Kit Kat is coming for the AT&T branded HTC One Mini. The update, which begins as of today, is arriving as a 658MB file that can be downloaded only using a WiFi connection. Perhaps more important though, AT&T One Mini users will be getting Android 4.4.2 along with Sense 5.5.
