I take my work with children extremely seriously, as I believe early and accurate identification of problems can lead to interventions that are key to helping children have healthy, productive futures.

hey toad,
the Nostromos measures 6-1/2" x 7-1/2" at it's widest/longest parts. I left mine hanging off of my cintiq a little bit so that I didn't obstruct the view of the monitor; I have my gamepad nestled right up next to the viewing area of the screen.
But, even with it hanging off the edge of the Cintiq, it's still rock solid due to the amount/quality of the velcro I used. It's also EXTREMELY ergonomic. I also still use the Cintiqs buttons/dials as well; especially the rotate feature.
With all this being said, only try this if you feel comfortable sticking some industrial velcro onto your $3000 Cintiq, haha...from my perspective, I am a hobbyist, so I will have this unit for the rest of my life, so it didn't bother me to do that.
Also, I am sure your Logitech is fine; go with what you're already used to. I'd guess that there isn't much difference between our two pads, and you could save yourself some $.

A fellow developer recently showed me a blog post with a nice visual representation of a git layout. He implied that this particular strategy was gaining a lot of popularity, but numerous searches here and through the Google have yet to turn up the blog post.
The gist of it was that you had a trunk for main development, and a "side-trunk" for immediate customer-driven bug fixes. Main development had a branch, which was merged to trunk periodically for major releases, and then you had feature branches. There was a lovely diagram that clearly showed all this.
Since I'd like to learn git better, I'd love to have that diagram available as an aide. It'd also be useful as a visual for trying to convince coworkers to switch to git. Does anyone happen to know what I'm talking about and can provide a link?
EDIT: I realize now that my title is a bit misleading to the content. If anyone would like to post additional strategies for git branching, they would be appreciated as well.

Between the hectic schedule of holiday parties, trying to get all that work finished before your days off and finding the perfect gift for everyone on your list (without totally breaking the bank), the holidays can quickly turn from a time of cheer to a six-week stress-a-thon.
Because there's hardly a minute to yourself in the next few weeks, you might not realize just how stretched to the max you truly are -- until something happens to remind you.
We don't just mean you find yourself reaching for your favorite comfort food or breaking out in hives. And not feeling so frazzled you forget where you put the keys or cry at the drop of a hat, either. (Although, fun fact, there's a good reason that happens when you're stressed: Emotional tears contain stress hormones, thereby flushing them out of the body and helping you feel better.) Those are all legitimate signs you're stressed out -- but you probably already know that.
The eight surprising signs below are things you might mistakenly chalk up to some other health problem or brush off as nothing to worry about. In reality, you might want to listen a little closer to what your body's trying to tell you.
Doing so can save your life. Chronic stress increases your risk for a host of health problems, including high blood pressure, heart attacks, stroke and depression, to name a few. While chilling out is often easier said than done, there are (thank goodness) a few simple relaxation strategies to keep in mind, like breathing exercises, visualization exercises and even spending time with a furry friend. Listening to music or reading a book can help, too.
While you're finding the relaxation trick that works for you, keep an eye out for these sneaky symptoms of stress.
"Unfortunately, the stress we deal with during the day tends to follow us to bed at night and plays out in our dreams," Lauri Quinn Loewenberg, author of Dream On It -- Unlock Your Dreams, Change Your Life, wrote for DoctorOz.com. Maybe you don't realize you're burning the candle at both ends until that dream comes back where you miss your bus or your house is on fire, two of the five most common stress dreams, according to Loewenberg. However, these dreams might help you pinpoint what exactly is stressing you out -- and can help you work through why you're feeling that way, Fitness magazine reports.
That "I could use a massage" feeling isn't just about a brief oasis from the real (read: stressful) world. Turns out, stress causes us to tense our muscles and can even trigger muscle spasms, leaving us in some serious pain, Woman's Day reported.
Speaking of spasms -- ever had a funny eye twitch? Stress could be to blame. While there's not exactly hard evidence to prove it, many people who complain of a twitch also say they're tired or stressed.
A number of people grind their teeth in their sleep -- or "chew over the day's stressors," Debbie Mandel, author of Addicted to Stress: A Woman's 7-Step Program to Reclaim Joy and Spontaneity in Life, told Fitness. Others may simply clench their jaw while awake and stressed, often without realizing it. But both can lead to pain -- and grinding can even crack teeth. Your dentist can tell you if there's visible damage and set you up with a mouth guard to prevent further stress-induced wear and tear.
Women may experience late or missed periods due to stress. Some may even experience a condition know as secondary amenorrhea, when the cycle seems to completely stop, according to Everyday Health. Other stressed women may find their periods continue on a regular schedule -- but feel far worse. Stress can make cramps up to twice as painful, according to Fitness.
You've probably heard someone say stress is turning them gray -- but it turns out we're more likely to lose hair when stressed, HuffPost Style reported. However, if you are already genetically predisposed to going gray, traumatic events and periods of intense stress could speed up the process. The Mayo Clinic explains that stress can cause white blood cells to attack the hair follicle and stop growth, and it may also put hair follicles into a "resting phase," so hairs fall out during washing or combing. Others experience trichotillomania when stressed or anxious, which gives them an irresistible urge to pull out hair on the scalp or other areas, like eyebrows and eyelashes.
Stress can mess with your stomach in ways as simple as a bout of the butterflies. But it can also cause more serious reactions, including irritable bowel syndrome, or IBS. While the link between stress and gastro problems is not entirely understood, it seems to make the intestines more sensitive and contract more, according to the A.D.A.M. Medical Encyclopedia.
Stress lowers our immune system, leaving us at risk for frequent colds. One study found that the people who reported high levels of stress were twice as likely to catch a cold. The stress hormone cortisol seems to turn down the volume on the body's inflammatory response, Health.com reported, to "free up energy" to fight off whatever the threat that's causing the stress. "Stressed people's immune cells become less sensitive to cortisol," Sheldon Cohen, Ph.D., the study's author and a professor of psychology at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, told Health.com. "They're unable to regulate the inflammatory response, and therefore, when they're exposed to a virus, they're more likely to develop a cold."

More On Legal & Compliancefrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- Use and Misuse of Social Media Social media is an inexpensive and effective way to communicate with established and prospective clients. Nevertheless, when RIAs utilize social media to promote their advisory practices, they risk compliance problems for their firms.
- The Need for Thorough and Effective Policies and Procedures Whethere an advisor is SEC or state-registered, RIAs must revise their policies and procedures to address significant compliance problems occurring during the year, changes in business arrangements, and regulatory developments.
The Securities and Exchange Commission announced Thursday that it has reopened the comment period for 30 days on its proposed amendments to its net capital, customer protection, books and records, and notification rules for broker-dealers.
The proposed rule amendments are designed to update the financial responsibility rules for broker-dealers and make certain technical amendments. The commission issued the proposed amendments on March 9, 2007, and the public comment period on the proposal closed on June 18, 2007.
The commission says that it did not act on the rule amendments it proposed in 2007. "Given economic events, regulatory developments and passage of time since then, as well as the continuing public interest in this area, the commission believes that it would be appropriate to seek additional public comment on the proposed rule amendments," the SEC said.

A Vermont sheriff's deputy convicted for possessing child pornography has received a sentence so lenient it's causing outrage in the community.
Former Grand Isle Sheriff's Deputy Nick Moen was arrested in January of 2015 and given a paltry 30-day sentence for multiple counts of possession of child pornography. Prosecutors said Moen used file sharing networks to obtain and share sexually explicit images of young children on the Internet.
The Vermont Attorney General's Office offered an extremely light plea deal to Moen, who agreed to plea guilty to three felony charges in exchange for 3-year sentence — but Judge Alison Arms suspended all but 30 days of the prison term. /source/
"When a police officer trading in brutal images and videos of small children being raped is given only 30 days in jail, that is a red flag of a corrupt judicial system. The judge who gave this sentence should, herself, be investigated."
I can say that this case got no different from other cases involving cops. Motherfucker commit a serious crime for what another citizen would be 'lynched', but he avoids the punishment, because shiny cop badge gives an incredible power and guarantee of impunity. In other words, they can do everything, we ain't. I never liked child pornography, but when I see such an injustice by our justice system, I get mad, because it means that the police state is here, it sets its own rules around the country.

Advocate staff photo by BILL FEIG -- Exterior of Red Jacket Firearms building located at 9683 Mammoth Drive. Hayden accused in molestation Ben wallace and JOE GYAN JR.| email@example.com email@example.com Aug. 18, 2014 Comments A Baton Rouge gun dealer known nationally as the star of Discovery Channel's reality television show "Sons of Guns" was arrested over the weekend, accused of recently molesting a girl at his Greenwell Springs Road home. William "Will" Hayden, the show's 49-year-old star, spent Friday night in the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison before leaving sometime Saturday after posting a $150,000 bail on counts of molestation of a juvenile and aggravated crimes against nature, booking records show. Sheriff's deputies arrested Hayden on Friday based partly on accusations made by a woman who told investigators that on Aug. 4 she saw Hayden inappropriately kissing the girl while he was undressed, according to a deputy's statement attached to the warrant for Hayden's arrest. Hayden's business, Red Jacket Firearms LLC, released a statement describing the allegations as "false charges" made by "an angry woman who Will has recently ended his relationship with." "These allegations were raised well more than a week ago in connection with and retaliation for Will ending that relationship," the statement reads. C. Frank Holthaus, Hayden's attorney, said the accusations were made by a woman who Hayden recently fired from a job at his gun shop. Holthaus also said Hayden's relationship with the woman was only professional in nature, not romantic. "She has nothing to do with this child that she claims was somehow abused," Holthaus said. Hayden does not share any children with the woman, Holthaus said. During the investigation, which began Aug. 5, deputies asked Hayden to submit to a lie detector test, Holthaus said. They agreed to do so as long as deputies also forced the woman making the accusations to submit to a lie detector test. But a deputy refused the deal, Holthaus said, which eventually led to Hayden's arrest Friday night. Holthaus declined to comment on the details of the allegations, adding that the matter would be handled in a courtroom. "This is only the beginning," the attorney said. The East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office declined to comment on anything related to the investigation, citing the decision by a state district judge to sign the affidavit of probable cause, which included a stipulation that the request for the accompanying arrest warrant not be disclosed. However, the judge, state District Judge Bonnie Jackson, said she never sealed the warrant from public view. "I never signed any order to seal," Jackson said. "I just signed the arrest warrant. I never saw a motion to seal. I didn't seal a thing." Jackson noted that the words "under seal" were written on an envelope containing the affidavit and arrest warrant that a sheriff's deputy brought to her house on Friday. The judge signed both documents. According to the affidavit, the girl told detectives in an interview that she had not been sexually abused by Hayden. However, when detectives asked her why she thought she was being interviewed, she replied that the suspect had told her "it was about him molesting me," the affidavit says. Hayden told deputies that he was wearing "boxer brief type underwear" when the woman walked in. Stephanie Hayden Ford, a daughter of Hayden's who manages the gun shop and stars in the show, released a statement in support of her father. "There was never any impropriety in our home," Ford said. "He was and is a good father." "Sons of Guns" follows Hayden and several other people involved in manufacturing and selling custom-made guns at the shop located just north of South Choctaw Drive near Monterrey Boulevard in Baton Rouge. The show's first season aired in 2011. The show's most recent episode, part of its fifth season, aired in early May, according to the Discovery Channel's website. Laurie Goldberg, a Discovery Channel spokeswoman, declined to comment when reached by phone on Monday. If charged and convicted on the count of aggravated crimes against nature, Hayden would face a prison sentence of 25 years to 99 years in prison. The penalties accompany a conviction when the victim is younger than 13 and the perpetrator is older than 17 under amendments to state law proposed this spring by legislators and later signed into law by Gov. Bobby Jindal that recently went into effect.

Let's see how this goes...
The first thing people tend to notice about me is my smile, maybe because I am always pretty happy. I try to have fun in every situation and am very easy going. I love sports and music, my absolute favorite things to do are going to ball games or catching a concert. When I was in high school/college I used to go to a concert a week. I have slowed it down a bit, but still am trying to go as often as I can. My goal is to go to all the MLB stadiums, I am at 16, so I still have a little ways to go. I will never complain if you want to watch sports, but don't get me wrong, I love a good chick flick as much as the next girl. My family and friends mean the world to me and i am a very loyal person. It is definitely hard to be living in a different state but I try to go home and visit as much as I can. I am always up for new adventures and love to travel. Born and raised in southern California, I grew up being outdoors and at the beach. I went to school at ASU in Tempe, AZ and consider those the best four years of my life (so far). I moved to Chicago almost 4 years ago and I have completely fallen in love with this city. I have met some great people here but decided to try this site out! I've come to realize that the hardest part of online dating has to be making a profile that portrays who you are without sounding so cliche. With that being said, if I have left anything out that you want to know about me, feel free to email.

I don't believe in astrology
I like Dogs
Since I get extremely guilty when leaving a dog home alone all day, I had to leave mine with the parents. I will eventually get a dog out here, but not until i have a yard!
I am in Southern California, Tempe, Denver, and Houston the most (because of family and friends). But my favorite vacation spots have been Kauai, Cancun, London, Dublin, and Amsterdam
Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ
I love my dogs back home, family, friends, weekends, a good book or movie, music, my job (most of the time), good conversation, and traveling
Movies, Concerts, Museums, Sports games, being outdoors
Bone Season, The Divergent Series, I am kinda nerdy and enjoy all these dystopian novels (especially if the have a love story in them!)

I posted last night about an aquaintence of mine who is 27 weeks and hasnt quit smoking yet. It got me curious as to how many smokers have actually quit. Remember, the poll is annoymous.
I was a smoker for 15 years, about half a pack a day. I mostly quit smoking using nicotine gum in March. I was still smoking here and there, like when I was drinking, until I found out I was pregnant. My last cigarette was the day I took took the test in May. It was easier for me to cut off at that point because I'd mostly gotten the cigs - and the gum - out of my system at that point. There are still some hard moments but they become fewer and farther between. I don't plan on resuming the habit after the baby is born but I agree with mlaw - a cig and a drink is going to be fucking awesome at some point.

Ok, maybe I shouldnt have said the word "hate" but I do have a problem with people who smoke (like I seriously will dump someone for this reason). I have hung around people who've smoked, but of course they heard me bitch about how bad their breath and clothes stink. I seriously make people who smoke wait outside my car for like 15 minutes to air out before I give them a ride. (I dont play !)
By the way mlawther its not classy to smoke either nor have stank breath (IM JUST SAYING)
& I opened this thread up to see how many people smoke while pregnant (sorry it caught my interest !)

Johnny Cash recites Cremation of Sam McGee
I have something of a taste for the macabre and this particular recitation of Cremation of Sam McGee with Johnny Cash as the perfomer is nothing short of perfection. I memorized this particular poem for recitation to creep out Mrs. Wiley, my second grade teacher, because she made us memorize a "long poem" to recite in front of the class.
This year the winter turned bitterly cold earlier than usual and stayed there for longer than expected and my arthritis flared up fiercely. I'd been complaining about the water heater since we moved into the house and the poor thing finally gave up the ghost and we had to replace it back in the March time frame. When I took my first "post new water heater shower," it was like heaven and all I could think is "Since I left Peachtree down in Tennesee, it's the first time I've been warm."
Kitchen? Smitchen!
At this point, all we're waiting on is the counter tops. They are going to be two weeks late and $1400 over estimate and we didn't change anything in our build to account for nearly double the estimate in actual cost. I can only assume that in this case "estimate" meant "I dunno. Tell them what we tell everyone."
The issue has already been dealt with on this end, but we're still at the point where all we can do is wait for them to actually manufacture our counters and then install them. So here I sit, in a half renovated kitchen, typing on my phone as I update. It's a privileged person's problem, I know. I have a half-renovated kitchen. I have a phone. Some people don't have either.
It's not that I'm not grateful for what I have. It's just that I want the chaos of renovation to be done.
The kitchen update summary
The kitchen remodeling projects are trucking along at top speed. Since Monday, we've gotten can lights installed and the old tile taken out. It's not the most exciting part of the work being done, but necessary.
The new drywall is up and ready for skim coat tomorrow and paint soon after. I think we're going white, which makes me very happy. I'm oh so fond of a white and cobalt blue kitchen and white walls are the first step. Monday or Tuesday of next week the new floors will be laid.
The cabinets are confirmed to deliver on Thursday April 9th, right as originally scheduled. Things get exciting after that. Cabinets hang and then they come out to measure and make templates for the new counter top. The house originally had beige laminate, but we're upgrading and I can hardly wait to see it in place.
Today is April 1
Trust no one.
Believe nothing.
Verify the facts before you act.

Monday March 31 was Aunt Net's funeral.
I didn't really ever get to say goodbye. In my family, we don't say goodbye. It's "bad luck" to say goodbye. We say see you later, or toodles, and we make bunny ears at each other. At least Maman and I do. I don't know if my sisters know the secret sign for all is well and I'll see you again soon.
By the time Aunt Net's cancer had become really advanced, she'd pushed me away and refused all offers of visits. She said she didn't want me to remember her that way and she made me say toodles, like it was just another phone call.
But it wasn't. It was the most gut-wrenching, horrible thing I'd ever done because I knew it was really goodbye. Aunt Net wouldn't take my calls after that and told Maman to tell me that everything was fine and not to worry, but I knew it wasn't.
How can it possibly be "fine" when your life is ending because your own body has betrayed you and is eating away your vitality from the inside? How can it be "fine" when it's so bad that you don't want anyone to see you "that way?"
So this is what I'm stuck with – a lack of closure because I needed to say goodbye to her and yet she needed me not to for some reason that I'm not sure I'll ever understand because to me love means that sometimes you have nothing more you can do but hold someone's hand.
And when you offer you offer your hand and it's pushed away? Well, it leaves a whole lot of empty to work through before it feels right and I'm not sure I've got enough time left on this earth even if I live to be 115 to work through it all or that it will ever really feel right. And this is the place I'm at a year later: stuck hand that was rejected and toodles when it should have been goodbye.
Without walls
This is how my kitchen and dining area looks without walls. I'm so very happy with how this is coming along.
The "auto awesome" makes' AJ look odd, but it's a great representation of what my new open floor plan is going to look like when it's finished. The run is long enough that have to keep a small post in the center, but that works out just fine because code says we have to run power to the island (marked in duct tape on the tile section) anyway.

The New Job
I don't normally talk about my job in public forums. It's a sort of rule with me. I'm breaking the rule for the moment because it's part of the theme of the week, but also because I really love my job.
Weds March 26 – 3:00 PM – Interview for what becomes my current job
Thurs March 27 – job offer for the job I interviewed for on Wednesday
Changing jobs is stressful, whether it's by choice or not. Interviewing, while not officially on the Holmes and Rahe scale is stressful by merit of being part of that process. By this point in the week last year, I'd already racked up 20 points for a change in residence and 25 points for a change in living conditions (due to living in a semi-construction zone), 47 points for dismissal from work, and 63 points for the death of a close family member. At 155 points, that's at the point where there's moderate risk of stress actually impacting your health.
When you add them all up and put them on the average internet stress survey, it tends to put you in the "at risk" category and recommend counseling or stress management assistance. I could have used it by then, but I was too numb to realize it at the time.
Of the things that happened during this stressful week last year, interviewing for and getting this job was one of the most positive (the house being the other despite my trepidation).
The interview was extremely hard. I went into it doing everything I knew how to do to avoid revealing that on the inside I was a total mess. I wanted to sit on the floor in the middle of the new place and rock until things didn't hurt anymore, but there just wasn't any time for it. I would have had to delay my interview for that, and despite everything else I was so excited for the opportunity this particular interview that I didn't want to do anything that might jeopardize my chances.
As hard as it was to keep it together, I'm glad I didn't put the interview off. I was so much more excited about the position by the time I left that I did something I've never done before: as I was being escorted out after the interview time, I flat-out told the boss that I really wanted the job, loved the idea of it, and that I really wanted to join their team. I also let them know that I had some really great interviews coming up in the next few days, but I was super excited and this was my first choice.
I was afraid I fan-girled it. Too enthusiastic. Tripping over myself to try to make a good impression and ultimately falling on my face. I consoled myself with the idea that I had six interviews lined up over the next two weeks and certainly something good would come through if this particular opportunity didn't work out.
I got the offer the next day and accepted it immediately. I've been extremely happy that I did.
It's not always an easy job to love. I help facilitate items through our new product introduction area. The work is interesting and fulfilling, at least to me, but very often items land on my desk not just "hot" or "on fire" but complete infernos because they're either pushing deadlines or people forgot to get me involved in the process earlier. I'm getting people cued in to add me earlier, but due to the nature of the area I work in, there are always going to be time constraints and logistical challenges.
I have great coworkers. Management in my department is very responsive to suggestions and are always looking for opportunities to improve. Best of all, I'm being given some exciting opportunities to develop and take my career to the next level.
It's challenging sometimes, especially when things are flaming out all around me, but also extremely rewarding when things finally come together. The worst day here is far and away better than the best day at my previous job.

DALLAS (AP) -- Dallas Mavericks starting center Brendan Haywood is out again. Haywood is expected to miss at least five games with a sprained right knee, which he sustained midway through the third quarter Thursday night against Charlotte. The Mavericks on Friday recalled forward Sean Williams from the Texas Legends of the NBA D-League. Coach Rick Carlisle said Haywood's injury isn't considered serious, but needs some time to heal. Haywood played in just two games after returning from a sprained left ankle that forced him out of four games. The 6-foot-10 Williams has averaged 4.1 points in his seven games for Dallas this season. When Haywood had returned Tuesday, Williams was reassigned to the Legends, where he has averaged 14.7 points and 8.5 rebounds games this season.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention is directed to a method for spatially resolved temperature monitoring in a living examination subject, as well as to a suspension of ferromagnetic microparticles usable in the method.
2. Description of the Prior Art
In the field of medicine, it is necessary to detect the temperature in a living organism as precisely as possible in a spatially resolved manner. This is true for hyperthermia treatment, for example. Treatments with hyperthermia are conducted with LITT (Laser Induced Thermotherapy) or with regionally deep hyperthermia, for example, the latter method being used to treat tumors located deep in the body with HF radiation.
Particularly in hyperthermia, the temperature measurement must be highly accurate. It must be guaranteed that the tumor tissue is heated sufficiently intensely in order for the treatment to be effective, but burning of the patient (surrounding tissue) must be precluded. The temperature in the treated region must thus be kept within narrow limits, about 42.5� C. for hyperthermia, for example. This temperature is the same in all experiments, so that temperature detection need only be exact in this region.
With current methods, the temperature in the body can only be determined at individual points or along a hollow catheter. This is unsatisfactory for the above purpose, however, since a maintenance of the desired temperature over the entire treatment region cannot be guaranteed in this manner.
There are known applications of MR imaging for obtaining the temperature in the interior of a body in a spatially resolved manner. To the extent that these methods are based on proton nuclear spin resonance, the following parameters have been relevant references for the tissue temperature: chemical shift of the water peak, the T1 relaxation time of the protons, the total magnetization of the water, and the diffusion coefficient of water protons in the tissue. A non-invasive and spatially resolved monitoring of the body temperature is also possible at points far from the surface. Larger regions of the body can be simultaneously monitored. Nevertheless, these kinds of methods are not exact enough for the aforementioned purpose and are often too sensitive to external disturbances.
In the articles "Encapsulated Liquid Crystals as Probes for Remote Thermometry," (Franklin, K. J. et al; International Journal Hyperthermia; Vol 8(2); 1992:253-262) and "Sonochemically Produced Fluorocarbon Micropsheres: A New Class of Magnetic Resonance Imaging Agent," (Journal of Magnetic Resonance; 6, 1996:675-683), it is suggested that the phase transition of crystals be employed for thermometry by means of magnetic resonance. It has been established that certain substances have a considerably lower intensity of the MR signal in the solid phase than in the liquid phase. In the latter reference, a fluorocarbon-hydrocarbon mixture is suggested, which mixture changes from the solid phase into the liquid phase at a specific temperature. When this mixture is introduced into a body, it can be determined by the differences in the signal intensity of the allocated MR signal whether the prescribed temperature is exceeded. Liquid crystals were suggested in the first reference for a similar effect. In order to prevent the employed substances from being metabolized by the body and acting toxically, it is provided that these substances are enclosed in a non-toxic encapsulation which is not dissolved in the body (i.e. a body-inert encapsulation).
A common feature of all the above methods for temperature monitoring by means of MR on the basis of changes of the signal intensity in the phase transition is that a nuclear resonance measurement must be conducted with respect to this substance, e.g. fluorine. While this does not pose a problem in MR spectrometers, imaging MR devices are available practically only for proton resonance. In addition, fluorine, for instance, is present in the body only in very low concentrations, so that the body tissue could be imaged only with an extremely low signal-noise ratio. Imaging of the body tissue is a necessity for the localization of the temperature monitoring in the tissue. The above methods could be carried out, if at all, only with devices which are constructed specifically for this purpose, so that these methods are only of academic interest, at least at the present time.
It is an object of the invention to provide a method with which an accurate and reliable localized temperature monitoring is possible.
The above object is achieved in accordance with the principles of the present invention in a method for spatially resolved temperature measuring in a living body including the steps of intracorporeally introducing a ferromagnetic substance into the body, the substance having a Curie temperature which corresponds to a desired temperature limit value, and obtaining a spatially resolved representation of the body by obtaining magnetic resonance data from the body and forming an image of the body from the data, the image containing artifacts caused by the substance being in the ferromagnetic state, and using these artifacts as a criterion for determining that the temperature limit value has not yet been reached.
If the MR measurement is related to protons, conventional MR imaging devices can be employed, which ordinarily function by means of nuclear spin resonance of protons. The ferromagnetic substance can be intracorporally introduced in the form of an implant or as an injectable suspension on encapsulated ferromagnetic microparticies.
Another object of the Invention is to provide a contrast agent which is suitable for monitoring temperature by means of the effect of magnetic resonance, and the utilization of such a substance for that purpose.
This object is achieved in accordance with the principles of the present invention in a suspension of firm magnetic microparticles which have a Curie temperature in a range between an overcooled body temperature and an overheated body temperature of a living examination subject, the microparticles being encapsulated so as to be inert to metabolization by the living body.
FIG. 1 illustrates the placement of ferromagnetic needles in an examination subject in accordance with the inventive method.
FIG. 2 shows an MR image obtained in accordance with the inventive method.
FIGS. 3 and 4 respective show the susceptibility curves of two palladium-nickel alloys suitable for use in accordance with the inventive method.
The Invention exploits the fact that ferromagnetic substances cause sharp (and normally unwanted) disturbances, known as artifacts, in MR images. The type and size of the disturbances depend very much on the imaging sequence used. For example, spin echo sequences are typically considerably less sensitive to magnetic field disturbances than gradient echo sequences. An example of such a gradient echo sequence is known as the FLASH sequence, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,707,658.
When a ferromagnetic substance is introduced into the examination region, given certain data production sequences the nuclear resonance signal is completely extinguished from the environment of this substance by dephasing; i.e., this signal is rendered dark in the MR image. By contrast, paramagnetic substances hardly influence the nuclear resonance signal in the environment; i.e., they hardly generate any artefacts.
Another physical effect is important for the inventive method and suspension namely the fact that ferromagnetic substances retain their ferromagnetic character only up to a specific temperature, namely the Curie temperature. Above this temperature, the substances are paramagnetic. There are substances which change from the ferromagnetic state into the paramagnetic state at temperatures in the region of the body temperature. The Curie temperature of these substances can be set quite precisely; furthermore, such substances are already used in medicine, and so their application in humans is no cause for concern.
The two abovementioned physical effects are used for temperature monitoring as follows: When a small amount of a ferromagnetic substance with a known Curie temperature is introduced into the examined body, the sharp field distortions which occur as long as the temperature of the substance is below the Curie temperature lead to clearly visible extinguishing of the MR signal in the environment of the substance. If the temperature in the region of this substance rises above the Curie temperature, then extinguishing of the signal no longer occurs, so that regions with a temperature well above the Curie temperature can be easily identified.
It is important here that, in contrast to known methods of temperature monitoring with substances that are introduced into the body, nuclear resonance signals are not acquired from these substances themselves, but from the surrounding tissue. A conventional nuclear spin tomography device can thus be utilized, which typically functions based on the nuclear resonance of protons. Several advantages are achieved by this indirect type of measurement:
A first advantage is that according to the pulse sequence applied, a contrast change occurs in a region of greater or lesser size around the substance introduced, even small amounts of contrast agent can lead to a clear contrast change. The demonstrated effect is not a contrast change of the substance introduced per se, but results from this substance's influence on its environment. In known methods of temperature monitoring, large substance volumes must be introduced into the body in order to produce an effect. Contrast generation by influencing the environment is already employed in MR tomography using static contrast agents in the form of ferromagnetic microparticles. Nevertheless, with these static contrast agents, a transition from the ferromagnetic state to the paramagnetic state is not exploited, since the Curie temperature of such contrast agents is far above the range of body temperatures.
Another advantage is that because the image creation is based on the nuclear resonance signals of protons, conventional nuclear tomography devices can be used.
Moreover, since the imaging is based on the protons most often present in the body, a good signal-noise ratio is obtained, so that an MR image with a good spatial resolution, comparable to that of known techniques, can be utilized.
A further advantage is that as explained above, pulse sequences are variably sensitive to magnetic field disturbances. Particularly fast impulse sequences demonstrate a high artefact susceptibility to magnetic field disturbances. In the present case, however, such artefacts are desirable, so that very fast pulse sequences can be employed. This enables three-dimensional thermometry, for example.
The substance with the desired Curie temperature can be implanted into the target volume in the form of small needles, for example. This is schematically depicted in FIG. 1, wherein two needles 2 a and 2 b are inserted into an examination subject 1. FIG. 2 schematically depicts an MR image in a sectional plane (slice) according to the dashed line in the FIG. 1.
In the illustrated case, the Curie temperature is exceeded in the region of the needle 2 a, while the temperature in the region of the needle 2 b is below the Curie temperature. Signal extinguishing thus occurs in the region of the needle 2 b, which is not the case in the region of the needle 2 a. Instead of implantable structures, a suspension of ferromagnetic microparticles can be used, such as magnetic liquids which are also employed as conventional MR contrast agents. It is thus possible to rather easily identify even the smallest regions in which the target temperature is exceeded. As is typical with contrast agents, the particles are embedded in an encapsulation which make the suspension physically tolerable.
A palladium-nickel alloy is one ferromagnetic substance with a suitable Curie temperature in the range of body temperatures, for example. FIGS. 3 and 4 show the susceptibility curve of such an alloy dependent on the temperature, given an atomic nickel content of 26% and 27%, respectively. As can be seen, the desired Curie temperature can be adjusted quite well by means of the nickel content and can thus be adjusted to the desired monitoring temperature. The susceptibility curve of the palladium-nickel alloy, and its clinical application in the form of needles for hyperthermia treatment, is taught by the dissertation papers of Niek van Wieringen (University of Amsterdam, Jun. 26th, 1997). The palladium-nickel alloy is described therein as being for achieving a "self-interrupting heating" in tumor tissue. Palladium-nickel needles are inductively heated in tumor tissue by means of high frequency as long as they are ferromagnetic. As soon as the Curie temperature of the needles is exceeded, these become non-magnetic and no longer heat. In general, the Curie temperature of these needles is set at about 55� C.
With a ferromagnetic substance with a suitable Curie temperature, it is possible to carry out a temperature monitoring using conventional MR devices. This monitoring is reliable and accurate, since the transition from the ferromagnetic state into the paramagnetic state is precisely defined and clearly visible in the image. On the basis of the MR measurement, there is an excellent spatial resolution, and temperature monitoring is possible even deep in the body. The method is thus suitable for temperature monitoring in hyperthermia treatment.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to a specific embodiment, those of skill in the art will recognize that changes may be made thereto without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.

SK - you're dead right. I think 10Ks are the toughest of all the distances. It is definitely like two 5Ks back to back. You are for sure getting there and you will definitely make it, probably much sooner than you think!
Wow, 100m on a 5K is quite a chunk!
I haven't done sub 19 for 5K yet. Did 19:03 and 19:02 (current PB) but neither were anywhere near when I ran sub 40. At that time I was doing about 19:22. That's at Orpington which is quite a tough course though.
Yes I should get a snazzy T-shirt but I think there's a backlog at the moment so no idea when I'll get it. Just nice to make the milestone. Malcs Jr. claims he's done 51 because I apparently 'deliberately' forgot his barcode one day.
sense - I'm finding that my 5K, 10K and half paces are getting closer as time goes on. 5K is about 6:10 and the last half I ran was 6:30 with 10K somewhere in between.
Malcs Jr. is 13 and currently a hormonal nightmare. His PB is just over 22 mins but his times vary a lot. I think children struggle with the mental side of distance running. They are not disciplined enough to hold back at the start and they fold too easily in the middle and towards the end.
I've run with him a few times to help him pace it better. Once he masters that he should be able to go even faster.
Keep us posted on the scan.
Angela - your photo link isn't showing here but the click through works - wow, that is one dangerous looking bit of bling!
Heading out earlier today as it's already boiling here. I'm sweating just sitting down!
Sense - good to hear that the calf has improved. That abdominal issue sounds weird though. I hope the scan will help identify what it is.
Core work is painful for sure but it really does help. I did a load when I was doing the comp and I really believe it made a big difference.
Is it the Sri Chinmoy series at Battersea that you're talking about? I did two of those last year. They are excellent races - very well organised, great value and more or les flat. I was planning to do a couple this year but my 10K training got off to a slow start and the only 10K they have there before TR24 is this Saturday. Don't think I'm ready for that
The others are all 5Ks. Maybe I'll see if I can get up for one of those. Have you booked any yet?
SK - wow, well done on your racing! Awesome to bag a few victories as well!
Sub 40 10K tip: find a flat (preferably downhill) course Joking aside, clearly you're almost there. You only need to run 3 secs a mile faster - that's nothing. Lots of intervals seemed to help me when I was going for it last year. Consistent sub 20 5K's definitely helps with confidence too.
Freemers - excellent PB and congrats on the bling!
Not bad for someone who's "not doing much right now"
I would love to joint the bling off but sadly I am blingless
Chicksta - lol, love the digital detox!
Great to hear you're feeling better now. Surely you are due a decent run of good health now. You've had it pretty rough over the last year. Here's hoping you have an illness and injury free run in to Bremen!
I've had my first two weeks of full training since the spring and I'm starting to feel like I'm getting back into it. Did my 50th parkrun on Saturday with Malcs Jr. (also on his 50th). Season's best of 19:21 so pretty pleased with that. Not looking forward to training today and tomorrow in the heat!
Tim - I dunno how they work it with GFA. I've never heard of anyone who had a valid qualifying time being turned down which would suggest that there isn't a limit. There are no details about what the acceptance criteria are other than the qualifying time.
If that's correct, and there is no limit, then I guess it will impact on the number of available ballot places. However, I'm sure they set the qualifying times in order to let in an expected number of qualifiers. That is bound to be calculated based on years of past experience.
In short, I don't think the GFAs will have much of an impact on the ballot places.
Great stuff on the guide running! DS2 used to do that and he thought it was brilliant.
What was your conclusion on Salazar?
Sense - many thanks! You can borrow my flag any time
Have you not entered the ballot then? Or did you enjoy supporting so much that running VLM comes a lowly second place now?
Sorry to hear about the niggles, what are they? Are you having treatment?
Mr P - damn achilles! Hope it sorts itself by Sunday.
Mr P - lol - we were a pretty gruesome looking bunch
Tim - I do feel for you. It's hard enough dealing with running related injuries but something freaky like that is tough.
Baby steps as you say. You will get there - you have before. I hate being patient so I am definitely on rocky ground dishing out this sort of advice.
At least you can run, painful though it may be. It would be a lot worse if you were on doctors orders to rest up completely. Each run should get a bit easier. Keep chipping away.
Re. the GFA entry, it's not a secret, it's on the VLM website under 'how to enter'. They had been reporting there that application entries would open in mid-June. I believe you have until 24th July to apply, be accepted and pay for entry.
Gingermagic - the magic is back! Blimey, that NDW sounds like torture. You're certainly going for it on the ultra front. 100K! You're a crazy man
I will keep my fingers crossed for you in the ballot. With the new system this year letting more people into the draw I would imagine places will be even harder to come by. Really hope you make it!
Oxon White - if you follow the plan to the letter then yes, I believe they are all intended to be done at full 5K pace so feel free to go for it!
Angela - Oooh - nice bling!
Yes of course we can do some TR laps together. However, I suspect you'll be going much faster than me! I will definitely be walking ALL the hills
Btw. I didn't realise I'd missed the Asics262 wrap up video! In case anyone else missed it, here's the direct link:
Emotional stuff. Tim - you looked like you were cruising!
Did my VLM GFA entry last night - can't tell you how great it feels to be able to say that. Hope they let me in!

High school football: Deer Creek's Caden Sander throws 3 TDs, grabs early interception in win over Shawnee
Jacobs, though, accounted for nearly all of the Wolves' 120 rushing yards.
"We had a great week of practice leading up to this game and I think that intensity rolled over to the first few minutes of the game," Sander said. "I think after that first pick, running it back and scoring right away everybody was just amped. It carried over the rest of the half."
Sander finished 21 of 29 for 254 yards passing. He also rushed for 157 yards on 14 carries.
It was an impressive performance for Sander in just his second varsity game at quarterback.

Rumors have the networks paying upwards of $30 million for the film.
In the moving drama The Pursuit of Happyness, Chris Gardner (Will Smith) is a marginally employed salesman and a single father, struggling with the mother (Thandie Newton) of his five-year-old son (Jaden Smith). When they are evicted from their apartment, Gardner finds himself alone with his son in San Francisco and no place to go. Even when Gardner lands an intern position at a prestigious stock brokerage firm, it pays no money. Forced to live in shelters, enduring many hardships as he goes through their program, Chris refuses to let this dampen his spirits as he pursues his dream of security for himself and his son.
