Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Atlanta Falcons Pick and Preview
- Updated: December 13, 2008
NFL Betting Preview
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (9-4) at Atlanta Falcons (8-5)
Sunday, 1:00 pm Eastern – FOX
SBG Global Opening Line: Falcons – 3 , Total 44.5
Two teams battling for a playoff spot in the very competitive NFC South meet in Atlanta on Sunday as the Falcons host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Both teams are coming off losses last week but each team can still make the playoffs. The Bucs are a game behind Carolina in the division and could clinch a playoff spot with a win against Atlanta and a loss by either Dallas or Philadelphia. The Falcons are a game back of the Bucs and they understand that a win against the Bucs is a necessity after losing last week to the Saints.
"Obviously we're frustrated with the outcome. But this team hasn't given up all year." quarterback Matt Ryan said, "We still have everything that we want in front of us. We're capable of getting into the playoffs."
SBG Global reports that early NFL betting has the public taking Falcons at Home.
The Falcons haven't had much success recently against the Bucs, losing the last three by a combined score of 92-19. The good news for Atlanta is that they are at home and NFC South teams at home have been unbeatable this season. The home team has won all 10 division games in the NFC South this season. Atlanta is 5-1 overall at home this season, averaging 32.2 points per game. Running back Michael Turner could have a big game against a Bucs defense that gave up over 300 yards to the Panthers last week. Turner is second in the NFL with 1,269 rushing yards.
Here are the NFL betting stats for Sunday's game. The Buccaneers are 7-3-2 ATS in their last 12 games when playing on Sunday following a Monday night game. The Buccaneers are 8-20 ATS in their last 28 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. The Buccaneers are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The Buccaneers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games in December. The Buccaneers are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 meetings in Atlanta.
The Falcons are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 home games. The Falcons are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite. The Falcons are 2-6 ATS in their last
8 vs. the NFC South. The favorite is 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings between the two teams.
SBG Global Current Line: Falcons – 3 , Total 44.5
The Over is 6-0 in the Buccaneers last 6 games in December. The Over is 9-2 in the Buccaneers last 11 road games. The Over is 5-2 in the Buccaneers last 7 games as an underdog. The Under is 5-2 in the Buccaneers last 7 vs. the NFC. The Over is 6-0 in the Falcons last 6 games in December. The Over is 8-2 in the Falcons last 10 home games. The Over is 6-2 in the Falcons last 8 vs. the NFC South.
Pick: Falcons 3 out of 5 units

I've traveled a lot in my life already... - Exercising/working out and hoping to get back to something like my playing days…:) - Saving to buy a nice house, but haven't decided what part of town to look yet – still have time - Hanging out with friends hitting up some of the local drinking establishments - Visiting my family back in Louisiana - Trying out new cuisines, restaurants, and generally experiencing new cultures (it grows on you once you lived overseas) Obviously the list is filled with some very male-centric activities but if any of it sparks your interest, you know what to do;) Thanks for stopping by!

Queensland Rail is aware that those living close to our railway lines can experience varying levels of noise. While noise from the operation of a railway is exempt from environmental nuisance provisions under the Queensland Environment Protection Act 1994, Queensland Rail strives to manage noise associated with both its rail operations and network wherever reasonable and practical.
There are various sources of noise from a railway and to aid efficient and effective noise reduction, a range of noise management measures are utilised.
Find out more
All trains using the Queensland Rail network are fitted with a train horn (that may also be known as a klaxon). The sounding of the train horn is a critical safety measure to warn people in or near the rail corridor that a train is approaching or about to move.
The sound of train horns is distinctive, which is important as it allows the warning to be differentiated from other warning and alert tones that may be used in the same general area. This allows the public to immediately associate the sound with train movement, even when a train is not visible.
In order to be effective as a warning device, the volume of the horns must be high enough for them to be heard over other sources of noise in the environment, including audio distractions such as personal music players and car stereos.
Train horns are sounded for various situations, including at whistle boards, when a train is about to move from a stationary position (such as when departing a station), and when approaching workers or members of the public on or near the track. Horns are also sounded at the discretion of the driver for the purpose of emergencies.
Whistle boards are strategically located within the rail corridor on the approach to high risk locations such as level and pedestrian crossings, bridges and tunnels. When a train passes a whistle board, the train driver must sound the horn so pedestrians, motorists and track workers know a train is coming.
Because people use our crossings during both day and night, train drivers need to sound the horn at whistle boards regardless of the time of day.
In order to maintain a safe, reliable and efficient rail network, it is essential that Queensland Rail carry out track works on a regular basis. The majority of track work is undertaken outside of peak times, mainly overnight or on weekends, in order to minimise the disruption to customers.
During both the planning and delivery of night and weekend works, Queensland Rail aims to reduce community noise impacts, where practicable. Before commencing any noisy night-time or weekend maintenance / construction works, Queensland Rail makes every effort to notify impacted neighbouring communities of the potential disruption.
Wheel squeal is the high-pitched noise that can occur as trains travel around curved track. It is primarily caused by friction between the steel wheel and the steel rail.
Queensland Rail's scheduled track maintenance regime includes a program of rail grinding, which assists in reducing noise by providing the optimum interface point between the train wheels and the rail.
In some suitable areas, rail lubricators may also be installed to assist with reducing wheel squeal. The application of a lubricant and/or water along the rail surface further reduces friction between the wheel and the rail, with the benefit of reduced noise.
Regular maintenance of rollingstock, including the optimisation of wheel profiles, also assists with minimising wheel squeal.
The Queensland Government is investing in quieter new generation passenger trains that will be progressively introduced to replace existing units. Details of this investment program can be found at http://www.tmr.qld.gov.au/ngr.
Queensland Rail continues to investigate the application of noise controls to its existing passenger trains with the highest noise levels and/or greatest potential for noise reduction. Passenger trains with the longest remaining service life receive the highest priority. Passenger trains scheduled to be decommissioned within the next few years receive the lowest priority.
Queensland Rail does not own or operate freight services. However, we manage the rail network on which some of these services run. Third party operators who request access to our network must be accredited rail operators and enter into access agreements with Queensland Rail. These access agreements include matters associated with noise management.
Queensland Rail is obligated to give priority to regularly scheduled passenger transport services. As the vast majority of passenger services operate during the day to satisfy the service needs of the community, most freight train services are required to operate outside of these times. While careful planning and scheduling maximises the utilisation of available daytime freight paths, it remains necessary that many of the freight train services operate after hours, including overnight.
As the rail manager, we work closely with the freight operators, and provide feedback so that they can investigate and address as applicable, noise related issues that may be associated with their locomotives and wagons.
Queensland Rail makes every effort to facilitate the passage of freight trains through the Brisbane suburban network without stopping. However, due to safety and/or operational requirements, it is sometimes unavoidable that trains be held temporarily at various signals throughout the suburban network.
Where the holding of freight trains is required, we make every attempt to hold them at signals in less populated areas but there may be occasions when this is not safe or operationally possible.
Stabling yards are located across the rail network, and are used as passenger train storage/parking areas which allow our trains to enter into service efficiently across the network to meet demand. Trains may also be cleaned and inspected at stabling yards in preparation for entry into service.
Cleaning and inspections usually occur between evening and morning peaks, and it is necessary that power be maintained to the trains and some systems continue to run during these activities. Some noise may be experienced.
Noise barriers are physical barriers designed and constructed to shield properties adjacent to the rail corridor from noise, however they are not always the most suitable option for reducing noise.
The use of noise barriers can pose various challenges relating to constructability, safety and amenity. To be effective, noise barriers must block the line of sight between the noise source and the affected sensitive place. Noise barriers can also be a significant visual feature in the local area that may obstruct existing views, reduce breezes, create access issues and attract anti-social behaviour such as graffiti.
Queensland Rail prioritises the construction of noise barriers based on predicted and measured noise levels associated with operations. Prioritisation ensures that areas of greatest need receive noise mitigation in consideration of the limited resources available.
It is important to note, that where a noise barrier has been identified as a viable option, it is a requirement that the affected property owners be consulted. Noise barriers are only constructed in locations where the majority of affected property owners are in favour of construction.
Proposed new developments adjoining the rail network may be subject to noise mitigation conditions.

Plastic Chain Operation
From Sludge Scrapers
(1 vote, 5 out of 5)
The maintenance of sludge scrapers mostly attends to take care of machines mechanically, chain tensioning and to grease chains and bearings. Often there is oil escape which increases wearing on roller chain and sprockets. The wearing also increases cost of maintenance, in worst case there will be a major failure.
Drive unit:
With VA Tekniks replacement drive unit you can combine the better of two worlds. Simplify maintenance and reduce the environmental impact. In many cases the tank insides has been refurbished without replacing the old greasy drive units.
For tanks with modern sludge scrapers but old drive units.
Motor and gear mounted on a plate made of hot-galvanised steel with threaded rods for chain tensioning. Sprockets adapted for the gearing needed for the drive shaft's sprocket. The minimum dimensions for the area necessary to change operation are 100 mm wide by 500 mm long, recessed or surface operation.
A change to plastic chain operation along with a new driveshaft means that cutting down the driveshaft belongs to the past. You can easily change sprockets without un-mounting the driveshaft. You get rid of oil and other lubricants, you gain in increased lifetime, you make less environmental impact and you decrease your power consumption.
- No oil leakage
- Less spare parts
- More physical space around tanks
- Decreased power consumption
- Water lubricates the chain
- Tanks are isolated from each other (when double-tanks)
- Plastic chain has longer lifetime

COLUMBIA, Mo. -- Laurence Bowers had 20 points and seven rebounds in his return from a knee injury that sidelined him all of last season, leading No. 15 Missouri to an 83-69 season-opening victory over Southern Illinois-Edwardsville on Saturday. Bowers outscored the Cougars 10-2 by himself during a two-minute stretch early in the second half for the Tigers, who are ranked to start the season for a third straight year. Phil Pressey scored 13 of his 19 points in the first half and Alex Oriakhi, part of a strong transfer class, had 15 rebounds and eight points for Missouri. Jerome Jones hit five 3-pointers and scored 17 points for SIU Edwardsville, which was held to 33 percent shooting. Reserve Michael Messer added 13 points but Mark Yelovich, the Cougars' top returning scorer, was held scoreless on 0-for-5 shooting with four fouls. Missouri won its 66th in a row at home against non-conference opponents since the end of the 2005-06 season without guard Michael Dixon, who is...

A picnic just isn't a picnic without watermelon. And summer wouldn't be the same without chilly treats. Get the best of both sweet favorites with this delightfully light homemade sorbet. Easy to make (all you need is a blender!), mango is added to the mix for extra creaminess, while maple syrup stands in for sugar as an all-natural sweetener. Freeze and serve in scoops, or use ice pop molds for a pleasingly portable, cool-down dessert.
6 cups watermelon, cubed
1 mango, sliced or ½ cup frozen mango
½ cup organic maple syrup
½ cup water
Optional: 1 cup coconut milk (for creamier treat)
- Cut watermelon into chunks. Slice mango.
- Add water and maple syrup to blender, then add fruit.

8 Claims. (Cl. (so-54.5)
The present invention relates to means for,
translating movements in space and, more particularly, for transmitting or translatingmovements from one point to another remote point instantaneously or in a differed, reduced or amplified manner.
Of course, and broadly speaking, apparatus or devices for movement transmitting purposes have been known and used extensively for quite a long time. But, the means disclosed heretofore either are not capable of translating movements outside of a given plane, or must possess independently operable mechanisms for coordinating said movements with others having a trajectory outside said plane, or are only capable of transmitting a rocking movement about a fixed pivot. In other words, the, transmission and remote reproduction of movements occurring in space, in more than one plane, represents a problem which, so far, has not received a completely satisfactory and simple solution.
The present invention has been conceived to improve the movementetranslating systems already known and to provide means whereby a movement can be reproduced at a distance whatever may be its trajectory in space.
- As 'in all systems where a function has to be reproduced remotely, the present one comprises an apparatus for analyzing, the original movement and transmit this analysis to a. remote point; this apparatus is therefore called the transmitter. The remote device, or appratus, which must co-ordinate this transmittedanalysis and reconstitute the samev into displacements corresponding to the original movement is, consequently, the receiver and may be linked or .1
connected to the transmitter in a number of ways using, as the case may'be, electrical, physiadapted to follow, in space, the trajectory of the movement, or motion, to be transmitted. Inasmuch as the base ends of the axes are fixed, it is evident that the angular relation of the axestogether, and with respect to the base, is
continuously variable as the vertex is displaced to follow-a given trajectory in space; also, due to the securing of the axes at both ends, it is clear that said axes will be elongated, or contracted, longitudinally during this displacement.
In other words, deformation of the pyramid will cause spatial disturbances of the axes.
. If, therefore, this deformation of the pyramid is recorded in each axis, and suitably transmitted, either as a function of longitudinal changes or angular relation, the reconstruction of this deformation inan homologous remote pyramid Will result in a trajectory of the remote pyramid vertex exactly simulating the original trajectory.
The actual means used for detecting the pyramid deformation, or causing a recreated deformation in a remote pyramid, are almost limitless and various possibilities will at once suggest'themselves for specific practical applications. Electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic or mechanical means are among those which can most easily be applied and used, several variations of each being possible, singly or in combination.
Consequently, and with the foregoing in view, the main object of the invention resides in the provision of an improved system for remotely translating the trajectory of movements occurring in space, or in a three-dimensional area.
An important object, also, is the provision of a system of the character described which is accurate and adaptable to be performed by physical, electrical or even chemical means.
Another object evisages a movement trans lation system which is simple, reliable and-based I on an operating principle such that the devices therefor are capable of reproducing any movement in the most direct manner.
A further object of the invention contemplates means for remote motion translation which include a single point for following, or remotely recreating, the trajectory of any movement in space, Whether continuous or interrupted.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent, or be pointed out further, during the description to follow.
As stated previously, the system of the invention is applicable to an almost indefinite number of practical applications in all fields of human endeavor.
As a speciflic embodiment of the invention,
among others, an example is given herein of a micro-manipulator, of improved character, con
stru'cted and operated in accordance with the principles of the present system. This is shown in the accompanying drawing wherein:
Figure 1 is a perspective view of the embodiment of the invention, comprising a micromanipulator including a transmitter and a receiver, both of said devices being operatively associated with a microscope shown in dotted lines,
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional View taken longitudinally through both the transmitter and receiver,
Figure 3 is an end view of the transmitter mechanism,
Figure 4 is a longitudinal section through one of the receiver pistons, and
Figure 5 is an enlarged plan view of the receiver with the casing thereof and the ball joint shown in section.
Referring to the drawings wherein similar reference numerals represent corresponding parts throughout, the letter Tindicates generally the transmitter, and the letter R the receiver, both of which are connected together in the present instance by the flexible line L since the embodiment described herein is operated by hydraulic pressure.
An examination of the figures, and more particularly Figures 2, 3 and 5, will show that both the transmitter and. receiver are very similar to each other and include in each case the pyramidal arrangement of converging axes which, in the present case, are constituted by pistons moving axiaily within cylinders. The only difference existing between the piston arrangement or" the transmitter and that of the receiver is one of size only, the transmitter piston being much smaller than the receiving piston, since a micromanipulator is naturally intended to reduce the transmitted movement to a value suitable for microscopic examination, as is evident. Obviously, the reverse may be true in cases where movements 'are'toz. be reproduced with an increased amplitude, both of which possibilities bewell within the spirit of the invention.
The pyramidal arrangement of the three axes forming the basis of the present invention is shown more particularly in Figure 3; each or said axes being formed of an elongated cylinder it, open at one end. and in which a suitable piston I l is slidabl'e, said piston extending outside of the cylinder and having its outer end pivoted or otherwise connected. at E2 to a triangular bracket I3. Said; bracket forms the vertex of the pyramid and constitutes, in efiect, the point of convergence of the three axes represented by the piston and cylinder. The other closed end of. the cylinder is secured to the plane already described which forms the base of thepyramid and whichbase is comprised, in the present instance, of a vertical partition or the like Hi secured vertically, and. at rightangles, to the base l5 of the transmitter T. The pivot for the closed end of said cylinder consists of balls i6 disposed in suitable cavities i1 arranged in triangular formation in the partition I14 and closed on the outside by plates [8' to retain the said balls in the cavities against lateral movement. Finally, each cylinder [0 is provided, near its pivot end, with a smalloutlet 2'0 over which a rubber or other held in place also by a plate 21.
which, as is evident, will be def'ormed. to the extent of its vertex displacement. .Frdmthefig ures and the foregoing description, it is obvious that the bracket l3 can be displaced in any direction an extent limited only by the physical size of the axes or pistons. And, of course, the displacement of this vertex will be translated by an extension or contraction of each individual axis and an accompanying triangular change between said axis and the base represented by the partition I.
The movements to be transmitted are applied to the vertex bracket I 3 by means of a rod slidable longitudinally in the centre of a ball 26 mounted in the same fashion as balls I 6 and The outer end of the rod 25 extends outside of the partition M and may be terminated by a knob or the like 28.
So as to protect the mechanism from damage a cover 30 may be disposed over the piston and cylinder assembly and secured to the base by means of the screws 31. In order to limit the amplitude of movement imparted to the bracket [3, so as to confine the amplitude of said movement to that which is observable in the field of a microscope, a stop plate 32 is provided, having an aperture 33 in the upper part thereof and which plate is bent at its lower portion to form a foot 34 secured to the base l5 by a set screw or the like 35; thus, the motion imparted to 28 will be confined to that possible by the physical size of'the piston and cylinder and also to the limited field of a microscope.
The receiver R, shown in detail in Figures 2 and 5, comprises also the pyramidal arrangement of three converging axes, said axes consisting each in a cylinder 49 open at both ends and mounted at the outer end of parallel arms 4| arranged in triangular formation around a common base 62. Said base 42 is mounted on the platform 43 of the receiver, and which platform is secured to a post 44 movable up and down within a pedestal 65 and adjustable at a suitable height by the set screw 46. As shown to advantage in Figure 4, each of. the cylinders M is held in the arms against longitudinal movement by the integral ribis formed at the outer end of the cylinder and an. inner frictional collar 49. Each of the cylinders includes a piston 59 mounted at the end: of a stem 5t and which stem is centered the cylinder by means of the pack-'- ing 52. Finally, the outer end of each stem- 5.?
is provided with a rod or wire- 53', each of which: converges to "a vertex constituted by the 54 of a stud 55. The stud 55 is then connected to the micro-tool holder 56, or movement reproducer,
,;through the: intermediary of a rod 51 slidable through a ball 5-8 Suitably mounted an ap ropriate bracket 59 secured: at the forward end of the platform 43. As is the ease" the trans mitter, the receiver beprovided withuthe cover 60 suitably'attached to the platform 53.-
Inasmuch as the particular embodiment oi: the invention described and illustrated herein freezing liquid/ The particular mode of filling said tU-beis relative-1y unimportant and may vary according to circumstances and the parti ul'ar A construction chosen for the cylinderand piston of the receiver. It shouldbe noted alsothat dueto the very small movements encountered at thereceiver, therods-e'iiare rigidly connected together at 54 the" inherent resiliency or'fiX- ,libility or said iods' 'being ample rot-the small amplitude of the movements encountered; furthermore, this particular construction eliminates all end play in the receiver, so that the microtool 65 is movable Without back lash. Obviously, the construction of the receiver structure can be an exact duplicate of the transmitter one, the movements being the same in both except as to amplitude, when desired. Itis noted also that a stop element 56 is attached to the transmitter rod 25 so that the pistons il may not be inadvertently Withdrawn from the cylinders It. The embodiment of the invention just disclosed aptly represents, it is believed, the principle and possibilities of said invention.
Whatever means are used to analyse and reconstruct the deformations of the transmitter pyramid are relatively unimportant, because said means may be varied at will, or according to circumstances, and are Well within the knowledge of one conversant with this art. 7
Reviewing the particular example given herein, it will be noted that it is simple, flexible, stable and adaptable to a variety of purposes. For instance, the vertex i3 may be caused to follow any movement in space, without the intermediary of the rod 25, and the stud 55* consequently actuated to follow said movement in reverse, for obvious reasons.
In a micro-manipulator, therefore, the advantages resulting from this construction are:
1. All the movements of the micro-tools are controlled from a single knob and, as a result:
2. The instrument can be used expertly without specific training.
3. Back-lash and parasitic vibrations are eliminated,
4. Due to image inversion in the microscope, the instrument is easily disposable so that the micro-tool appears to be a continuation of the transmitter lever,
5. The ratio of demultiplication can be varied at will and manufacture of the instrument is simple and relatively free of accurately machined parts.
From the fore oing, it should be apparent that the invention is an advance in the art of movement transmission, since it constitutes a notable improvement over the methods and means used previously for the purpose.
It must be understood that the form of my invention herein shown and described is to be taken as a preferred example of the same, and that various changes as to theshape, size and arrangement of parts may be resorted to Without departing from the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:

The dispute over the rules for the FCC auction of 700 MHz spectrum rolls on… Verizon (NYSE: VZ) has been accused of behind-the-scenes lobbying at the FCC with the result that Chairman Kevin Martin is trying to remove the open access rules, and now Google (NSDQ: GOOG) has made those complaints official: "Google attorney Richard Whitt said in public filings and a Wednesday blog post that the Verizon has been less than forthcoming about related matters it has discussed with FCC officials, including Chairman Kevin Martin" reports Dow Jones. Verizon has denied the charges, with Verizon attorney Michael Senkowski writing in its own filing with the FCC that "Google's assertion is not correct", and Verizon did not press for changes in the open-access rules during the meeting.
Dow Jones (NYSE: DJ) also writes: "Whitt said in his post that Verizon has been furtively attempting to "water down" aspects of the open-access rules, by pressing that those devices sold by the spectrum's acquirer will not have to be open to applications offered by other companies…But Whitt notes that currently, some 95 percent of the phones in the U.S. are sold by carriers such as Verizon, meaning that nearly all phones would be sealed off from outside applications if Verizon has its way." I was under the impression that "open access" meant that any device that could connect to the network on the spectrum as long as it didn't harm the network, although there were some comments about allowing third-party applications.

What is a scaphoid fracture of the wrist?
A scaphoid fracture is a
break in a small bone on the thumb side of your wrist. Of the eight carpal
bones in your wrist, your scaphoid bone is the most likely one to break.
It is important to find out if you have a scaphoid fracture, because
scaphoid fractures need treatment to heal well. With proper treatment and
follow-up, most scaphoid fractures will heal over time. Without treatment, and
sometimes with treatment, healing can be slow and difficult because parts of
the scaphoid bone do not have a good blood supply. If your scaphoid bone does
not heal well, you can have long-term pain, stiffness, or
arthritis in your wrist.
What causes a scaphoid fracture?
Most scaphoid
fractures occur when you stretch your hand out in front of you to protect
yourself from a fall. They can also occur when your wrist twists severely or is
hit very hard. Scaphoid fractures often happen while a person is playing sports
such as football, soccer, or basketball or during activities such as
Rollerblading, skateboarding, or bike riding. They can also occur as a result
of a car accident or a punching incident.
What are the symptoms?
Because most scaphoid fractures do not
cause the wrist to look broken and many cause only minor symptoms, it can be
hard to know if your scaphoid bone is broken. If the bone is broken, you may
It can be hard to tell the difference between a wrist that
sprained and one that is broken. If you have fallen on
an outstretched hand and your wrist hurts, be sure to see a doctor to find out
if you have any broken bones. Scaphoid fractures that are not treated properly
can lead to long-term problems.
How is a scaphoid fracture diagnosed?
Your doctor will ask you questions
about your symptoms and about how and when you hurt your wrist. He or she will
then look at your wrist, find any swollen or tender areas, and see how well you
are able to move your wrist and thumb. Your doctor will also try to find out
how well blood is flowing to your hand and if you have any nerve damage in your
Most likely, your doctor will order
X-rays of your wrist. Sometimes an X-ray clearly shows
a scaphoid fracture. Other times, an X-ray may not show signs of a fracture. If
your doctor is not sure if your wrist is broken, he or she may refer you to an
orthopedist, a doctor who specializes in bone
problems. Because fractures cannot always be seen right away, you may need a
follow-up X-ray in 1 to 2 weeks. In the meantime, to prevent possible long-term
problems, you will be treated as if you do have a fracture.
some cases, other imaging tests such as
CT scans, and
bone scans are used to look for scaphoid fractures.
How is it treated?
for scaphoid fractures includes wearing an arm cast or splint and sometimes
having surgery. Even if the first X-rays do not show a fracture, your doctor
still may treat you to prevent possible problems with healing.
Right after the injury, you may wear a splint because your wrist is too
swollen to put a cast on. You may also wear a splint if it is not clear whether
your bone is broken. For the first few days, your doctor may tell you to keep
your wrist higher than the level of your heart and to use cold packs or ice to
reduce swelling. He or she may also prescribe a pain medicine or suggest a pain
medicine that you can buy without a prescription, such as acetaminophen (for
example, Tylenol) or ibuprofen (for example, Advil or Motrin).
some cases, after the swelling is gone, the splint will be removed and a cast
will be put on. The cast will enclose your thumb and may extend above your
elbow. Some people only need to wear a cast for 6 weeks, while others may have
to wear a cast for several months. How long your wrist takes to heal depends on
how serious your fracture is. Regular visits to your doctor will help you to
know how well your fracture is healing and learn how to care for your splint or
In other cases, you may need surgery to put pieces of your
bone in the proper place or to help your bone heal faster. You may also need
surgery if part of your bone has died because it did not get enough blood. If
you have surgery, you will need to wear a splint or cast afterward.
Once a splint or cast is removed, your arm or wrist may feel weak or
stiff. Your doctor or a
physical therapist can teach you exercises to
strengthen your arm and wrist.

Beth Galí. 1998
With strong visual prominence and use in keeping with its size, the Latina street lamp adorns large spaces, avenues and promenades.
Beth Galí was a member of the group of architects known as the "Generation of the 80s" that struggled to make out of Barcelona the city of design. Architect, town-planner, and designer, Beth Galí has contributed to consolidate Catalan architecture's renown worldwide.
Throughout the 80s, a generation of young architects was driven by the idea of building a new Barcelona, with ambitious objectives: open the city to the sea, refurbish the historic district and turn it into a pedestrian area, create new public spaces, and design modern urban elements. The new paradigm in town-planning and architecture that resulted from the Barcelona 1992 Olympic Games was sold abroad as the "Barcelona model".

In "The Watch Tower," Elizabeth Harrower lives up to her last name. This is a harrowing novel, relentless in its depiction of marital enslavement, spiritual self-destruction and the exploited condition of women in a masculinist society. It reminded me of Zola in its unflinching depiction of two sisters entangled with a moody, violent man, one of them being gradually crushed into subservience, the other struggling desperately to save her own soul. It is a brilliant achievement.
First published in 1966, although not till now in the United States, the novel tracks the lives of Laura and Clare Vaizey from the late 1930s to the early '50s. In its opening pages, we learn that the girls' father, an Australian doctor, has died suddenly and their mother is pulling the sisters — one is 16, the other 9 — out of their boarding school and moving with them to a flat in Sydney.

BirdLife species factsheet for Polynesian Imperial-pigeon Polynesian Imperial-pigeon Ducula aurorae is endemic to French Polynesia. It is currently listed as Endangered under criterion D of the IUCN Red List on the basis that it has a very small population (<250 mature individuals). On Tahiti, it may already be extinct. It was restricted to the Papeno`o and Hitia`a valleys in 1986-1990 (Monnet et al. 1993b), but none were reported in 1998, and in 2006 it was considered unlikely to persist (Te Manu 1998 22: 2, Thibault and Cibois 2006). On Makatea, the population was judged to lie between 100 and 500 individuals in 1986-1987, but may now be increasing slightly following a reduction in hunting (Thibault and Guyot 1987, Thibault and Cibois 2006) and mining activities. A survey on Makatea in 2009 estimated the total population size at 1,206 individuals (with 95% confidence intervals giving a range of 867-1,677 individuals, roughly equating to 570-1,200 mature individuals) (Albar et al. 2009, 2010). If confirmed, and if the population is stable or increasing, this species would warrant downlisting to Vulnerable under criterion D1 of the IUCN Red List, on the basis that there are still estimated to be <1,000 mature individuals. However, this species could decline in the near future owing to habitat destruction from proposed new mining activities and infrastructure development on Makatea, or if the Swamp Harrier Circus approximans colonises the island; the likely cause of Polynesian Imperial-pigeon extinction on formerly inhabited islands (Holyoak and Thibault 1984, Thibault 1988, Seitre and Seitre 1991, Thibault and Cibois 2006). Further information is required on population size, trend and distribution of this species, and comments on its proposed downlisting are welcome. References: Albar, G., Gouni, A., Kesler, D.

Have you caught the newest advertising campaign for Summer's Eve feminine hygiene products?
My mouth hung open in astonishment when I saw it for the first time during the previews for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I had two immediate reactions: Why are feminine hygiene products being advertised in a movie theater full of teenagers and children? And, who heck is their target market? My guess is: sexually active adolescent girls and very young women.
I suggest Fleet Laboratories, which pushes a full-line of Summer's Eve feminine "cleansing and freshening products" (that WebMD and plenty of ob/gyns say we don't need!), change the portfolio's brand name to the more accurate: Summer's Deceive.
The press release announcing this "bold new campaign" that supposedly "empowers women," proclaims, "'The V" is anything but women running through fields of flowers or along a beach with their mother talking about feeling fresh." Hey, I'm all for that. But here are the two major things that bother me:
1) The campaign reduces women to one body part — and uses a talking fist to personify a woman's vagina. As one male friend put it, "I know guys talk about that body part in those ways, but do women really? These ads look like they could have been part of the TV ad parody segment on Saturday Night Live!"
2) It reduces male/female relationships to pure lust. One of the talking "Vs" on the website comments, "I can make men drop to their knees in about 2.1 seconds." And the centerpiece ad shows men in mortal combat with gorgeous women watching them while the voice-over croons, " . . . over the ages and throughout the world men have fought for it, battled for it, even died for it." IT? And what if the women they're fighting for don't want their so-called "wonders down under," to be the booty for the victors?
Is it sexist? Is it racist? Or just plain creepy? New York corporate communications consultant Linda Dunbar thinks it's all three, telling me, "My assumption is that companies do not insult and anger their consumers intentionally. Which is what makes this tasteless, offensive ad campaign so puzzling. Who allowed this to go out the door?
Could two years of research be wrong? Well, I'm no advertising expert, but the campaign was developed in what looks like advertising guy land. According to the Richards Group Agency's website, 27 of their 29 Creative Group Heads are men.

I recently came across a different kind of tree. One that looks and feels like a real one but is fake. How many of you would make the switch?

I recently came across a different kind of tree. One that looks and feels like a real one but is fake. How many of you would make the switch?
Does anyone ever put up more than one Christmas tree? We used to have 2 when I was growing up....I always thought it was odd. Just wondering if anyone else did the same?:tree1:
You can try Christmas Lights Etc. I bought a tree from them. I am like you, I wanted a reputable company. You should try them. I know they do wholesale but I don't know what the requirements are....
What kind do you prefer? Just the traditional red or green or ones found here with stitching and pictures?
I have found that the great thing about LED lights is that you can string way more together so you don't have to worry about all those power strips
A lot of the artificial trees now have a 10 yr warranty!
I still use some of the old decorations from years past, but like new and exciting things as well.:elf3:
Oh yes, it's almost like a wedding. You have to book and plan in advance or everything you want will be gone!
That is the exact same reason I bought an artificial tree as well. Plus I got sick of the mess and the tangled lights!
I think I might give the LED lights a try...I already bought my Christmas tree!
When you start thinking about decorating for Christmas, do you look around for new ideas? Like how you can save money or whether you can just do something different. I found a site that talks about...
156 days and counting!!!!
It's hot as Hades here and we have no air in the office. Temp should get up to 104 today.
The main trick is to let it get cold before you roll it. And use wax paper or saran wrap when you roll it so it doesn't tear.:elf1:
I don't like corner trees. I do have a friend that has a tree that hangs upside down and she said it really helps out with space.
I am just itchin' to buy all kinds of stuff. I don't know what to do with myself!:yahoo:
I bought the 7.5' noble tree. It is perfect for me. I have open it up and the branches are sturdy enough for the bigger ornaments....
Here is the link to it. It was around 300, but I don't have to pay for it until it ships...:yahoo:
Most LED lights are under 20 dollars. In the long run, it will save you more money because they use a considerable amount less energy. They are also rated for at least 100,000 hrs compared to the...
I decided to go artificial this year. I just bought a new tree and can't wait to put it up!:tree1:
I don't mind either. Either way I know someone is thinking of me. :waving:
I actually save all the dollar bills I get back from change when I make a purchase. You would be surprised how much it will add up to. I also buy things throughout the year that I know would be a...
I would actually like a new set of cookware. One that will last more than 2 years!!
I now have pre-ordered a Santa Claus on a motorcycle. Its made out of ropelight. http://www.christmaslightsetc.com/images/productdetail/santa_motorcycle_2.jpg
I typically use the same ones every year as a lot of them hold sentimental value. I do look for new decorations on occasion, like something I can pass down to my kids.

|Homemade Chili powder
Homemade Chili Powder is always the best for any spicy dish. We ,in Sri Lankan cuisine, use much chili powder. So I thought that it would be helpful if I share the chili powder recipe as we make it in Sri Lanka.
Red chili is an essential ingredient for Sri Lankan cooking. In a typical Sri Lankan kitchen, we use it as red dried chili, chili powder and as crushed chili flakes. Usually dried red chilies are used for tempering. Red chili powder is for curries and chili flakes are for stir fries.

The lead singer of Motley Crue, Vince Neil will be arraigned for his DUI on Monday.
In 2008, Vince Neil was spotted by Metropolitan police for speeding and weaving in and out of lanes. The officer followed the car and found Vince Neil was going 60 on a 45 mile per hour zone. According to RadarOnline when the police officer pulled Vince Neil over his speech was slurred, his eyes were bloodshot and his breath smelled of alcohol.
In 1984, Vince Neil was also involved in a drinking car crash that left Hanoi Rock's drummer, Nicholas "Razzle" Dingley dead. Vince Neil plead guilty to manslaughter and served time in jail for drunken driving.
The National Ledger reports, Vince Neil is no stranger to the law. In 2002 he was arrested for assaulting a music producer outside a night club. In 2001 he was charged with misdemeanor battery when he attacked a prostitute at Nevada's Moonlit Bunny Ranch.
Vince Neil was supposed to be arraigned in September for his speeding and DUI charges but his attorneys requested from the judge a two week delay which was granted.
Residents in San Francisco are happy Vince Neil isn't driving on the city streets drunk. He would crash into everything since the street and cars are so close together. Fans are waiting to see what will happen at Vince Neil's DUI arraignment on Monday. Hopefully Vince Neil learns his lesson and considers going to AA meetings. Share your thoughts.

The difference between colic and normal crying behavior is
related to the frequency, duration, and intensity of crying. Babies with colic
typically follow a "3" pattern: they cry for more than 3 hours a day more than
3 days a week for at least 3 consecutive weeks. A colicky baby cries very
loudly, sometimes piercingly, and often continuously. During a colic episode,
babies may clench their fists and stiffen their stomach and legs when crying

will cry less when they are held, fed, and given attention. But babies with

The top stories in the Norwalk Reflector on this date 60 years ago:
Police department gets new cruiser
A new Ford police cruiser, given numeral No. 1, was delivered to the Police Department yesterday by the Norwalk For Sales & Service.
The new vehicle, the last word in a two-door black deluxe model, carries such additional new features as airplane shock absorbers, new carburetion and ignition systems, larger brakes softer pedal action, improved steering mechanism and the more practical use of chrome trim on fenders.
For several days the new Ford has been at the sales and service where Weldon B. Sanger, local radio technician, had been busy installing radio equipment which had been removed from the old police car involved in the purchase as a trade-in.
Commenting on the delivery of the new cruiser, Police Chief Frank Kromer stated that the police department, which had been using Fords exclusively for years, found this product both economical and efficient for police work.
Captured sneak thief tells police he was once accused of being Nazi
City police today are holding for investigation one Marin Clouser, 31, who states his home is in Reading Pa., and that he was once accused of being a Nazi spy, charged with the murder of two policemen in Chicago and accused of robberies in Youngstown and New York City.
Clouser was arrested Saturday night on the tip of a patron at the Hilltop Tavern on old Rt. 20 where he began boasting that he was wanted by police.
Earlier, police had received a call from Don Derby, 32 Newton St., that a man had stepped into his home and taken a brown alligator purse from a table near the door. He told police that the man was about 5 feet 8 inches tall and wore and O.D. jacket. Derby had a glimpse of him has he ran between homes toward Pleasant St.
Checking in the neighborhood police saw a man walking along 154 W. Main answering the description of the suspect. They stopped their cruiser and gave chase, but the man eluded capture by disappearing the backyards of the neighborhood.
Arriving at the tavern later, police accompanied by a member of the sheriff's department, took Clouser into custody. He readily admitted the theft of the purse from Derby's home and showed officers where he had discarded it.
Two deer visit Schaefer farm
Irvin Schaffer, this morning saw two deer, a six point buck and a fawn, on his mother's farm located about four miles east of Norwalk on Rt. 601.
Schaeffer said the two deer, which he watched from a nearby woods, were frolicking in a wheat field adjoining a cattle pasture.
