[0001] In order to cover openings, e.g., in refrigerators, windows, sliding roofs for vehicles and the like, it is known that the roller blind [roller window shade] web [body] can be guided in laterally parallel guides of the opening to be covered and to achieve therewith a connection with the wall parts limiting the opening. A cover guide rail is usually provided for this in which the roller blind rod slides and guides the roller blind web following the roller blind rod. In the case of Venetian blinds, in which the roller blind web consists of individual, rigid strips, there is a closure, e.g., of a window opening that is on the whole satisfactory. However, these roller blind webs are massive and therefore require a corresponding spatial and financial cost. This type of roller blinds is not suitable for sliding roofs of vehicles or also for roller blinds for darkening rooms for presentations of films or photographs.
[0002] In order to darken rooms for the presentation of films or photographs, roller blind webs are used that consist of a thin, flexible material. The roller blind webs are let down vertically in front of the window openings. In order to avoid the incidence of light, a broad cover strip is set on the edge in front of the window opening on which strip the roller blind web rests. This cover strip can also be designed to be double-sided, so that the roller blind web runs in a guide. This type of guidance requires a relatively large amount of space and necessitates that the flexible roller blind web hangs down substantially vertically. Also, a tight guidance of the roller blind web is not assured and the incidence of light can not be completely avoided due to the required width of the guide slot.
[0003] It is important in refrigerators that they be tightly closed on the one hand to avoid an undesired exchange of air and therewith a loss of heat and on the other hand access to goods stored in a refrigerator should be prevented at times at which the refrigerator is not ready for selling. Especially when such refrigerators are set up in schools, administrative offices and cafeterias for self-service during breaks and a sale of food takes place only at this time, the refrigerators should be closed at the times outside of these breaks and thus be secure against thievery. In the case of vehicles, a stable guidance of the roller blind edges that resists wind pressure and similar influences is important.
[0004] Lateral guides for roller blinds or protective curtains are known that comprise a hollow seam [border] on the roller blind web on an edge running vertically to the roll-down axis which seam is held laterally in the rolled-down state by a rod element via which element the hollow seam is pulled [drawn] when the roller blind or protective curtain is rolled down so that the rolled-down curtain is held substantially along the entire hollow seam on the rod element (DE 2 99 225 931; DE 19 609 082). These known devices do achieve an obligatory and stable connection of the roller blind to the wall limiting the opening; however, the hollow seam for guiding the roller blind has the disadvantage that this hollow-seam edge becomes bulky during rolling up and therefore increases to a substantially greater diameter relative to the rest of the roller blind web so that the winding up not only requires a significant amount of space but also results in a non-uniform winding up and as a result in distortion of the roller blind web. Moreover, the manufacture of such hollow seams requires additional work cost and renders the roller blind device more expensive.
[0005] The present invention therefore has the problem of eliminating these disadvantages and creating a roller blind system that assures a stable and obligatory connection of the roller blind to the wall limiting the opening to be closed but is yet simple and thus economical to manufacture. This problem is solved by the features of claims 1 and 8.
[0006] In addition, double layers of materials and seam junctures are avoided, so that the roller blind web exhibits a uniform thickness over the entire width including the edge area, as a result of which irregularities during rolling up and deformations are avoided.
[0007] If tubing pockets are worked into the material web over the width at certain intervals, roller blind webs with different widths can be manufactured in accordance with the grid of these tubing pockets without having to set a certain roller blind width during the manufacture already. This achieves great flexibility of adaptation to different, required roller blind widths with low storage. The lateral guidance is established in a simple manner by a rod engaging into the tubing pocket so that voluminous boxes for a lateral guidance of the border edge of the roller blind are not necessary. As a result of the obligatory guidance a short engagement of the border edge of the roller blind into the lateral guide is sufficient. This is especially advantageous in vehicle construction.
[0008] Tolerances can be readily compensated and the roller blind web held under tension by the transverse mobility of the guide rod and by a fastening of the hollow profile that is elastic in the direction of movement of the roller blind.
[0009] Further details of the invention are described below with reference made to the drawings.
[0010]FIG. 1 shows the roller blind system of the invention in a front view.
[0011]FIG. 2 shows the roller blind system of FIG. 1 in a top view in cross section.
[0012]FIG. 3 shows the roller blind in section.
[0013]FIG. 4 shows left-side roller blind guide in section.
[0014]FIG. 5 shows a cross section of FIG. 6.
[0015]FIG. 6 shows a right-side roller blind guide in section.
[0016]FIG. 7 shows a roller blind web with tubing pockets in the warp direction and the weft direction.
[0017]FIG. 1 shows a front view of a refrigerator 6 with lateral walls 61, top 62 and base 63. A roller blind device consisting of roller blind web 1 with closure strip 15 and parallel guides 2 and roller blind reel [hoist, wind-up] 7 is provided for covering the opening formed by lateral walls 61 and top 62.
[0018] The parallel guides are designed as box-shaped hollow profile 2 with longitudinal slot 21 through which roller blind web 1 can pass. Guide rod 3 is arranged inside hollow profile 2, the diameter of which rod is greater than the width of longitudinal slot 21. This guide rod engages into tubing pocket 11 of roller blind web 1 that is widened as a consequence so that roller blind web 1 is held fast by [with] its border edge 14 inside hollow profile 2. Roller blind web 1 with tubing pocket 11 widened by guide rod 3 is supported thereby on the inside of hollow profile 2 and can not be withdrawn through this slot 21. A forced guidance is produced in this manner. Guide rod 3 is anchored by its bent foot 31 in recess 41 of closure cap 4 on the lower end of hollow profile 2. As is apparent from FIG. 4, recess 41 is open at the top on the side facing slot 21 so that guide rod 3 can slide horizontally by its foot 31 in this recess 41. In this manner tolerances in the width of roller blind web 1 can be compensated so that roller blind web 1 is always supported with [by] widened tubing pocket 11 on both sides of longitudinal slot 21 on hollow profile 2 and is uniformly tensioned.
[0019] Roller blind web 1 preferably consists of a woven fabric into which tubular pockets 11 have been woven in, e.g., in the warp direction. As is apparent from FIG. 3, such tubing pockets 11 can be worked in at certain intervals in the weft direction. These tubing pockets 11 are arranged on the edge of roller blind web 1 for receiving guide rod 3, that engages into these pockets and thus guides roller blind web 1 in a forced manner during its up and down movement. The arrangement of such tubular pockets 11 distributed in the weft direction over the width of roller blind web 1 has the advantage that the material for roller blind web 1 can be manufactured with a uniform work width and that roller blind webs 1 can be cut out of the same material in different widths B. Cut edges 14 are then worked for strengthening [fastening, setting, making firm], which can take place, e.g., by welding the synthetic material so that a fraying of these edges is prevented. The edges can also be strengthened by adhering, e.g., during bonding or coating.
[0020]FIG. 7 shows an original illustration of a section of a roller blind web 10 comprising tubing pockets 11 in the weft direction (11S) and also in the warp direction (11K). Material fields 16 consisting of a single-layer woven fabric are produced between the cross of tubing pockets 11. These material fields 16 are manufactured with a coarser weave so that a certain transparency prevails in these material fields, as explained below. Such a material web with tubing pockets 11S and 11K can be used both in its width and also in its length as a roller blind web since pockets 11S as well as pockets 11K can receive guide rods 3. Depending on whether pockets 11S or 11K are located in the transversal direction to the material web, they can then serve to receive the roller blind rod or also stiffening rods. In such a design roller blind webs can be manufactured very flexibly for very different uses and dimensions.
[0021] The manufacture of roller blind web 1 takes place in that at first a woven fabric is manufactured in which so-called tubular pockets 11 are woven in in the longitudinal direction (warp direction) of roller blind web 1. As is apparent from FIG. 7, tubular pockets 11S can be woven in at the same time in the transversal direction [weft direction] also, so that a checked structure is produced. The manufacture of such pocket fabrics is basically known and therefore does not need to be described in detail here. These fabrics can be readily manufactured with the customary chain [dobby] looms. However, a jacquard power loom is required for irregular contours.
[0022] As already mentioned above, it is advantageous if the full work width of the loom is utilized. Pockets 11 are worked in over this width at such an interval that, depending on the desired roller blind width, these pockets 11 laterally limit different roller blind web widths B so that different roller blind web widths B can be cut out of a work width. The fabric is compressed [consolidated] in the area of pockets 11 on the two fabric planes by the use of additional threads, e.g., in the warp. Material strips 12 between pockets 11 are advantageously woven in an open structure. However, care must be taken that the fabric has the same thickness in the area of pockets 11 as well as between pockets 11 in order that no beads are produced when rolling up.
[0023] After the woven fabric is completed it is washed, fixed and finished in such a manner that a closed, covering coating is applied in the area of the closely woven pockets on both sides. Care must be taken that the finishing mass or coating mass does not adhere the two fabric webs in the area of pockets 11 to one another. Aside from the fact that it is necessary for this to adjust the viscosity of the coating mass in such a manner that it does not penetrate textile roller blind web 1, it is necessary to take steps to assure that the roller blind web 1 to be coated is compact enough, at least in the area of pockets 11. This can take place in various ways. It has proven to be successful if roller blind web 1 is hot-ironed (at approximately 210° C.) at least in the area of pockets 11. This compresses the threads in such a manner that no coating mass penetrates. The use of texturized thread material has also proved to be especially advantageous. Both measures can also be used in a combined manner for reliability. Refer in this connection also to the older patent application of the same inventor DE 19836447.4.
[0024] The transparency remains largely preserved in the case of material strips 12 between pockets 11 since the finishing mass or coating mass does not completely close the coarse fabric structure. The latter can be achieved either by a differing density of the woven fabric structure in the area of the pockets and strips or by adjusting the viscosity of the finishing or coating mass. The transparency in intermediate strips 12 brings about a controlled convection, e.g. in roller blind devices for refrigerators, in the area of roller blind web 1 and thus prevents condensation water and perspiration water.
[0025] This controlled convection can also be achieved in the following manner: After the washing and fixing the woven fabric is coated in a covering fashion on both sides by a bonding with foils or also by a wiper coating. A closed, air-tight woven fabric is produced in this manner. Care must also be taken in this instance too during the coating that pockets 11 do not adhere, which takes place by appropriately adjusting the pressure and temperature and the viscosity of the coating mass or also [by adjusting] the already mentioned measures [steps]. After the coating, perforations 13 are stamped out in the area of strips 12 between pockets 11 in order to reestablish a certain, controlled air permeability of the material, that is necessary to achieve a convection flow in the area of roller blind web 1 to prevent condensation water and perspiration water.
[0026] In order to further increase the effectiveness of energy savings and thermal insulation the woven fabric web can also be vapor-deposited and sealed after the washing and fixing with aluminum, during which a previously vapor-deposited foil can also be bonded on in the latter process.
[0027] The desired roller blind web 1 is now manufactured by cutting to size [cutting out; blank] from the woven fabric web manufactured in this manner. Pockets 11 suitable for the desired width are used thereby. The cut [blank] is made in such a manner that a narrow border edge 14 remains outside of pockets 11. This border edge 14 produced by cutting is additionally welded in order to prevent fraying. Roller blind web 1 is then fastened by its one end to roller blind reel 7. On the other end the guide rods 3 are introduced into the two pockets 11 to the right and the left on the material blank. In order to facilitate the introduction of guide rods 3 into pockets 11, funnel-shaped guide pieces 5 can also be inserted into the latter, which guide pieces surround guide rod 3 with guide nozzle [bush, lip] 52 and are supported by collar 51 on the inner wall of hollow profile 2. In this manner not only an easy introduction of guide rods 3 into pockets 11 is achieved but also at the same time an easy, unhindered sliding of roller blind web 1 in parallel guides 2 is achieved. Closure strip 15 is attached as a grip strip to the free end of roller blind web 1 facing away from reel 7 in such a manner that the material edge is enclosed and guide pieces 5 are held in the exact position. To this end, closure strip 15 can be designed as a clamping profile or also as a bipartite profile that is screwed together, adhered or welded.
[0028] The roller blind system is preferably installed as a structural unit consisting of shaft 7 for winding up the roller blind web with a winding-up [reel] mechanism, and of roller blind web 1 itself with closure strip 16 in a housing fixed to top 62 of refrigerator 6. Parallel guides 2 are fastened to side walls 61 and can be fastened with traction springs 23 to refrigerator wall 61, as is apparent from FIG. 2. In this manner parallel guide 2 can exert an appropriate force for tensioning roller blind web 1 in the transversal direction.
[0029] As already mentioned above, the guidance of roller blind web 1 takes place on the edges by means of guide rods 3 that are arranged in hollow profiles 2 and engage in pockets 11 worked in at the edge of roller blind web 1. Roller blind web 1 is thus pushed with pocket 11 via [over] this guide rod 3 during pushing up and pushing down. For its part, guide rod 3 is fixed in hollow profile 2, that comprises longitudinal slot 21 through which roller blind web 1, that surrounds with its pocket the rod 3 arranged inside hollow profile 2, extends out. However, this slot 21 is only wide enough that roller blind web 1 can pass through it. Pocket 11 thickened by the rod is retained by the hollow profile and by collar 51 of guide piece 5. Whereas guide rod 3 is stationary, roller blind web 1 can be pushed up and down and is drawn off from guide rod 3 during rolling up. However, it is advantageous if a part of roller blind web 1 remains introduced in pocket 11 with grip strip 15.
[0030] An absolutely reliable, lateral forced guidance is achieved in this manner. The opening of refrigerator 6 can be completely closed. The slot-free closure at lateral walls 61 of refrigerator 6 achieves an optimal savings of energy and prevents access when the roller blind is closed.
[0031] This roller blind system makes extremely small structural dimensions possible since no bead is produced when the material is wound up onto roller blind reel 7. This is especially important in vehicle construction. Instead of a resilient fastening of parallel guide 2, roller blind web 1 can also be tensioned in the weft direction by working in elastic threads.
[0032] The roller blind system and the roller blind web are described above as a woven fabric. However, the roller blind web can also be manufactured as a warp knitted fabric with the appropriate binding techniques.

Lake Tahoe is perhaps the best rugged running area in the West. The Tahoe Rim Trail, a 165-mile trail encircling Lake Tahoe, is actually a system of smaller trails and loops that link together, each offering varying degrees of difficulty and terrain. It's a popular destination for runners wanting to get into the outdoors and breathe the fresh mountain air without venturing too far from their hotels. There are several towns surrounding the lake within a short drive from trail heads so visitors can go for an easy jog or plan a several-day backpacking adventure. Mid-July is the ideal month to see wildflowers in full bloom and take a refreshing dunk in the lake.
Another backcountry running area prime for adventurous runners is Great Basin National Park. Located in the eastern part of the state, near the town of Ely, Great Basin is home to the oldest living being on Earth: the bristlecone pine. Exploring Great Basin's trails is not for the faint of heart – the elevation starts at almost 7,000 feet and climbs skyward from there. There are several backcountry trails with varying degrees of incline and difficulty. Depending on the trail -- trails range in length from less than a mile to 13 miles -- runners will see stands of ponderosa pines, remnants of gold-mining operations, a six-story limestone arch, several alpine lakes and bristlecone pine trees.
As a reward for a challenging and exhilarating run, visitors may want to visit the Lehman Caves near the park's visitors center. The caves, formed over thousands to millions of years, have beautifully developed stalactite and stalagmite formations and are one of the best places to see the rare "shield" formations.

Koi socks!! I couldn't wait to wear these, and thankfully the weather was cooperative today. I did wear a jacket over this, but was otherwise comfortable. I've been more interested in knee-socks and fancy tights because I have been purposefully shopping for shoes to show them off. Mary janes are perfect shoes in my opinion. I don't like regular pumps because my feet never really feel secure, but add a strap at my ankle or over my foot and I'm a happy lady!
I was surprised at how much I love this purse. I got a black one for winter-y looks, it's real leather with a bunch of pockets, but is still small. The blue/brown one (pictured yesterday_ is for summer, made of canvas material. It's fairly plain so I'm thinking about DIY-ing it to make it a little more personal. Maybe a patch or iron-on?
I'm not really a bag person, but my shoe closet has rapidly grown again! So I've tried to rotate my purses a little more. Maybe a sign to stop shopping for a bit. Christmas is coming up after all.

"Mitt Romney, you've just had your head unceremoniously handed to you in three states, annoyingly recurrent doubts raised about your conservatism and a fresh wave of confused media speculation about whether your inevitability is actually inevitable – what are you going to do next?"
"I'm going to CPAC!"
Into that right-wing ganglion Romney steps, and what better chance for the besieged front-runner to attempt, once again, to lay to rest concerns on the right that he is not of them? It's a stage for Romney to assail President Obama over the hot birth-control controversy, to amplify his attacks on Rick Santorum's record in Congress (debt-ceiling votes and earmarking), tout his aggressive foreign policy and confrontational stance toward China, maybe hum a few patriotic bars.
It's not Romney's wheelhouse crowd, but they're teed up for an affirming address that will quell his flank's discontent, and Romney could use the shift in conversation.

McCain: GOP Race Not 'Wide Open'
Sen. John McCain said Mitt Romney's campaign is moving beyond the "setback" of Tuesday night – when Romney lost three contests that did not immediately award delegates – and focusing on primaries that award delegates immediately. "To call it wide-open I think it is a little bit inaccurate," the Arizona Republican said.
Santorum: Fundraising Has Jumped Since Recent Wins
Santorum says he's taken in an estimated $500,000 between Tuesday morning and Wednesday, in part due to his sweep of three states Tuesday night. He says this haul will help him compete with the deep-pocketed Romney. CNN reports the figure is now closer to $1 million in 24 hours.

Concentrated Equity Fund update
During October, markets reacted to the ongoing sovereign debt issues in Europe and the 'rescue plan' which was announced. Markets rallied strongly, with the S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index up over 7%.
Performance for the Fund in October saw the fund finishing firmly in positive territory, but below the S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index. However, the strategy remains on-track over the financial year to date, considerably outperforming the market.
As a result of concerns surrounding European sovereign debt and US and China growth rates, the valuations of many cyclical companies have fallen to levels last seen during the global financial crisis. We have taken this opportunity to increase some of these quality names in the strategy, such as Insurance Australia Group and Computershare.
In terms of portfolio positioning, other examples include:
- I completely sold down the position in Fosters Group post the increased bid of $5.40 per share from SAB Miller ($5.10 cash pursuant to scheme, $0.30 capital return). Given the impending transaction, FGL had held up well in a falling market so I took the opportunity to use the proceeds of the sale of this stock to purchase stocks that had fallen with the market.
- I continued to build positions in both Alumina and Oil Search. Weak global markets have provided an opportunity to buy these at attractive prices given the medium term value we see in these businesses. Our analysts assigned our highest conviction 'Rank 1' to both these companies, given the quality of their assets and management, and the valuation upside from these levels.
On a separate note, many companies offering high fully franked dividends represent good value relative to term deposits. Generally, the current environment continues to see investors favouring quality companies with strong balance sheets that are well placed to withstand any future shocks. In the current environment, our investment process holds up well and we continue to research and invest in such companies with sound management, conservative debt and recurring earnings which we believe are well placed to add value over the medium to long-term.

Caregiver Susan Woolley, a licensed practical nurse, tries to encourage World War II veteran Jack Bracy, 99, to share some of the lifetime of antecdotes he's told her since he's lived at Woolley's Caseyville Manor, a beautiful antebellum home in the country in Lincoln County.
- Filed Under
As a young girl, Susan Woolley found her calling in a nursing home.
"Every Friday and Saturday me and my mom would go to Jackson and spend the night with my grandmother in the nursing home," she said. "I'd push the old folks around, and I'd go get them coffee and juice and of course they just loved having a little child that would pay them attention and (be) loving on them, hugging them and doing things for them, and I enjoyed it."
Now, after a 20-year nursing career, Woolley has become a foster mom, of sorts, to one of these same type people. ...

Dr Catherine Casson
Today, when English towns and cities face a decline in their established economy or competition from other locations, urban planners and developers often look towards retail and cultural developments as the solution for improving economic performance. Cities that played an important role in the Industrial Revolution, such as Leeds, Nottingham and Birmingham, have recently redefined themselves as retail and leisure destinations by investing in new museums, art galleries and shopping malls.
Redevelopment requires a re-evaluation of a city's attributes. Modern York, for example, is known for its narrow medieval streets and small boutique shops, but these characteristics are now believed to deter the establishment of many large chain stores and cause shoppers to abandon York in favour of Leeds.
This project suggests that reputation could play a part in economic performance, and that policy-makers may have a role in supporting those types of institution that encourage it. The project uses a modern economic and social definition of reputation. An individual or institution possesses reputation when they can confidently be expected by others to behave honestly. Good reputation builds trust and encourages people to participate in, or trade with, the reputable individual or institution. This concept of reputation has been used by economic historians to analyse the evolution of modern commerce.
This project will be the first to apply this modern concept systematically to the medieval period, presenting a comparative study of how the civic authorities of seven towns, London, Norwich, Colchester, Nottingham, Leicester, Bristol and York, used reputation as an economic and political asset during the period 1250-1550. Administrative, literary and archaeological sources reveal that civic authorities sought to engender trust and confidence in the economy, governance and society of their town amongst a range of people. In doing so they hoped to develop a good reputation for their town that could help it overcome the economic upheavals and political turmoil of the medieval period.
Uniquely this project examines how these reputation-building strategies caused towns to prevent, halt or reverse economic decline. The project examines whether changes in the fortunes of towns were linked to differences in reputation and reputation-building strategies. The economic performance of each town is measured by the values of its recorded wealth in taxation returns, the level of business shown in customs accounts of overseas trade, the value of rents, the number of new buildings being constructed and the number and range of new professions emerging. Comparisons are made across towns and over time.
While today's urban planners and developers focus mainly on retail and cultural developments as the solution to restore civic fortunes, this project argues that the civic authorities of medieval English towns adopted six strategies:regulating trade; competitive pricing; following royal requirements; maintaining the right to self-govern; infrastructure and esteem.
Research into this topic has already been undertaken using sources from London, Norwich and Leicester for the period 1400-1500, the findings from which have been presented at conferences including the Economic History Society Conference 2012 and the University of Oxford Medieval Economic and Social History Seminar. Results so far indicate that there were some variations between towns in the reputation-building strategies used, for example London and Norwich were more concerned about maintaining good relations with the crown than Leicester. Variation also occurred over time, especially in the extent to which civic authorities sought to maintain their right to self-government.
Through its examination of a wide range of reputation-building strategies this project unites issues that are often distributed across different bodies of literature, for example political history, economic history and social history. Its analysis is informed by a range of evidence, covering different types of sources, a number of locations and a broad period. Much debate is present today regarding how to improve urban economic performance, yet the most innovative methods may have come from the reputation-building strategies of medieval towns.

What causes foot swelling?
Injury or damage to any of the structures in the foot can cause foot swelling. Diseases that affect the entire body, such as heart failure, arthritis, or vascular disease, can also lead to foot swelling.
Common injuries that can lead to foot swelling
A number of common injuries to the foot can cause foot swelling. These injuries include:
- Ankle sprain
- Broken foot or toe
- Burns
- Dislocation of bones
- Fragments of bone or cartilage within joint space
- Insect bite allergy, such as a bee sting, or bite or sting injuries in general
- Puncture wound (stepping on nail)
- Septic arthritis
- Sports injuries
- Stress fractures
- Tendon rupture
- "Turf Toe" (tear in joint capsule at base of great toe)
Inflammatory causes of foot swelling
Inflammation can cause foot swelling restricted to one foot or even a specific location on one foot. Examples of inflammatory causes include:
- Abscess (localized collection of pus due to an infection or a foreign object under the skin)
- Bursitis (inflammation of a bursa sac that cushions a joint)
- Cellulitis (infection of the skin and underlying soft tissue)
- Ingrown toenail
- Lyme disease
- Osteomyelitis (bone infection)
- Papilloma virus infection (plantar warts)
- Paronychia (nail infection)
- Plantar fasciitis (inflammation of the thick, fibrous tissue on the bottom of the foot)
- Septic arthritis (infection within joint space)
- Skin ulceration
- Tendonitis (inflammation of a tendon)
- Vasculitis (inflammation of the blood vessels)
Arthritic causes of foot swelling
Inflammation due arthritis can cause foot swelling. Examples of arthritic causes of foot swelling include:
- Gout (a type of arthritis caused by a buildup of uric acid in the joints)
- Osteoarthritis (wearing down of cartilage in the joints)
- Pseudogout (non-uric acid crystals, acute pain and swelling)
- Rheumatoid arthritis (chronic autoimmune disease characterized by joint inflammation)
Situational causes of foot swelling
Foot swelling may result from an activity or situation including:
- Extended airplane or car rides
- Menstrual periods (in women)
- Pregnancy (in women)
- Standing for extended periods
- Surgery
Other causes of foot swelling
Foot swelling can also be caused by problems that affect multiple body systems including:
- Alcohol abuse
- Benign or malignant tumors
- Blood clots
- Buerger's disease (acute inflammation and clotting of arteries and veins)
- Heart failure
- Medication side effects
- Obesity
- Peripheral artery disease (PAD, also called peripheral vascular disease, or PVD, which is a narrowing of arteries due to a buildup of fat and cholesterol on the artery walls, which limits blood flow to the extremities)
Serious or life-threatening causes of foot swelling
Although life-threatening causes of foot symptoms are rare, all serious injuries, including foot injuries, should be evaluated immediately in an emergency setting. In some cases, foot swelling that is accompanied by serious symptoms, such as a high fever (higher than 101 degrees Fahrenheit); loss of consciousness; or sudden swelling of the face, lips or tongue, may be caused by a serious infection or anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction. These life-threatening conditions should be evaluated immediately in an emergency setting.
Questions for diagnosing the cause of foot swelling
To diagnose your condition, your doctor or licensed health care practitioner will ask you several questions related to your foot swelling including:
- How long has your foot been swollen?
- Did you experience an injury to your foot?
- Are you experiencing any other symptoms, such as pain or loss of sensation?
- When do your symptoms occur?
- Are your symptoms worsened or relieved by movement or specific activities?
What are the potential complications of foot swelling?
Because foot swelling can be due to serious diseases, failure to seek treatment can result in serious complications and permanent damage. Once the underlying cause is diagnosed, it is important for you to follow the treatment plan that you and your health care professional design specifically for you to reduce the risk of potential complications including:
- Amputation
- Deformity
- Difficulty walking
- Heart failure
- Loss of mobility
- Paralysis
- Permanent disability
- Serious infections and gangrene
- Severe discomfort or pain
- Spread of cancer
- Spread of infection

Real New York City atmosphere provides the perfect backdrop for this historic hot dog spot. The dogs are delicious and at an amazing price considering the location and history of Nathan's. Highly recommended!
Posted by Laurie on 09/17/2009
The hot dogs are great. Crispy, tasty, everything you can ask for in a hot dog. The fries are among the best fast food fries in the game- tender with a bite, meaty and tasty. The Coney Island Nathan's has more to offer on their menu such as fried clams (pretty standard tasting) and even frog's legs. It's a welcome oasis on a hot summer day. Check out the Brooklyn Cyclones while you're there and check out there beer selection.
Posted by brooklyn joey on 07/18/2009
I luv nathan's. The hot dogs are delicious. I luv their chili cheese fries as well. Wash it down with a lemonade. So good even hasidic jews eat there.
Posted by Amber on 06/18/2009
Usually I like this Nathan's a lot, especially since it's pretty historical, but I suggest only going on -GOOD- days; i.e. days where there aren't events. This especially pointing at the Mermaid Parade and July 4th. Last year's Mermaid Parade the place was PACKED on all sides, damn near a 30 minute wait to get to the front. Since there's a rush to get those hot, sweating customers out of their hair, they don't really pay attention to some of the important things, like waiting to drain their fries. I ordered a large size of fries and the fries were just drowning in oil, and it certainly wasn't from the cheese that was on it. So yeah. If you go to an event like those I suggest just packing lunch. There's just no way to get anything good when the poor employees are pulling their hair with thousands of customers.
Posted by elaine on 05/13/2009
the best hot dogs and fries, bar none! just make sure they are fresh (sometimes on off-hours you will get food that's been sitting there.) and, in the middle of coney island, the beach, salt air...just great!

- Tonal focus reflections in Buli and some Gur relatives (2009)
- Buli is an Oti-Volta tone language spoken in Northern Ghana. This paper outlines the basic features of its tonal system and explores whether and in which way pitch respectively phonemic tone is approached as a means to indicate the pragmatic category of focus. Pursued are cases with focus-related surface tone changes as well as cases where pitch could help to disambiguate between broad and narrow foci. It is argued that focus is not consistently encoded by pitch or tone. Parallel findings for the closely related languages Kopen o (phonetic symbol)nni and Dagbani suggest that the apparent lack of significant prosodic focus signals in Buli might pertain to a larger group of tonal languages of the Gur family.

iBomber Defense Review
- Publisher: Cobra Mobile Limited
- Genre: Action
- Released: 18 Nov, 2010
- Size: 91.8 MB
- Price: $2.99
- Tradtional tower defense gameplay with polished features.
- Clean, detailed artwork; retains the iBomber style.
- Challenging 'bonus' rounds to test your adaptation.
- Previous levels unavailable in main campaign to replay.
- Repetition can sink in early.
iBomber Defense brings Cobra Mobile's series in to a new arena and competently executes a traditional tower defense with a few polished features.
- Full Review
- App Store Info
On the surface of it, iBomber Defense is as radical as departures go for developer Cobra Mobile and their iBomber franchise. However, this latest release for Chillingo shows nothing less than the polished skill expected of their developers and fans of tower defense titles can jump right in without hesitation.
iBomber Defense uses a traditional and familiar tower defense style, with enemies following paths set out for them while towers can be positioned and upgraded at fixed locations around the level. Beyond this it's the little things that help to differentiate the title, with enemies attacking battlements as they pass by, requiring cash to be spent to keep them repaired and upgraded, while positioning towers on elevated platforms can increase a towers natural range, giving you tactical advantages where they're needed most. Also, in a unique twist players can 'reset' a wave they're currently playing to attempt to correct any errors they may have made.
After each stage is completed, players are awarded with upgrade points that can be spent on unlocking new towers, global effects such as starting with more cash and new upgrade levels for your towers. Also, players have the option of taking on 'challenge' stages, fighting a new set of enemies on previously completed maps that are changed to add new paths or otherwise add to the difficulty.
Despite the combination of these smaller touches, iBomber Defense still feels like a standard tower defense title and unless you're already a fan of the genre it's not a compelling argument for converting those who need something more exciting. But, if you are a genre fan, iBomber Defense is a fun game to dive in to and one that will easily eat up some of your spare time.
DescriptionThe world of iBomber has got bigger and better! iBomber Defense combines classic tower defense gameplay with the intense action and strategy of the original iBomber games. Keep enemies at bay all over the world using a variety of weapons and tactics, from rattling Machine guns, explosive cannons and awesome anti-aircraft artillery!
"just may be the best tower defense game in the App Store" - AppAdvice
"shines as one of the most fun strategy games out there" - TouchGen
"the man's man of tower defense games" - TouchArcade
"it's a refreshing approach to the tower defense game" - QWERTY Hub
Choose from Quick play and Campaign modes. Battle across North Africa, Europe and Russia as both the Allied and Axis forces; you must withstand repeated enemy attacks and strategically plan your defenses for a successful campaign. Position your defences and prepare for attack. Destroy your enemies in a hail of bullets and artillery fire!
Use every tool at your disposal to repel the enemy waves. Rewind, Counter Attacks, Turret Damage and High Ground Advantage will all play a part in your eventual victory -or failure! iBomber Defense is the complete entertainment package with hours of action packed game play and deep strategy.
iBomber Defense features 22 perfectly balanced and challenging levels, the three tiers of difficulty make for great replay value and the slick and gorgeous graphics means you will really struggle to grow tired of what's on the screen.

Discussion in 'AS Roma' started by Andreas, Dec 16, 2012.
That's why you start Osvaldo ahead of Destro. Because of headers like that
C'mon ref, give us a Mexes sending off.
True....i just hope we don't take our foot off the gas to let them back in the game.
now all we need is lamela to score then we'll have an argentine hattrick
Osvaldo owned Yepes their, needs to let him out of his back pocket
Hes old and done. Lol at Milans midfield, montothingy running about will old man ambro, better mids in serie B
I still don't trust a Zeman 2-0 lead! We need a 3rd
3-0!!!!! Lamelaaaaaaaaaa
Zeman style, 3 - 0 !
I want 5 - 0 !
What a game, we are putting on a show.
Beautiful pass from Daniele...
There you go!!!
wow what a game...never expected 3-0 before the half.
DDR has won himself a spot in the starting 11 after this half in my opinion. Best performance I've seen of him all season
Shawarma having a nightmare till now. Goico, Marquinhos getting best out of him
This is the joy of zeman, hopefully people see its joys now. On night like this it can make you feel 10 feet tall
its because hes playing in the middle for the first time this season
This is such a mismatch in midfield, its actually embarrassing from Milan
dont know about 10 feet tall but it def. makes me feel 10 feet long
too easy
Ah! I am on my way home for Christmas and I am missing the first half! What a bummer to be missing it!
What are you talking about, he played in the middle plenty of times.
You're missing a great game so far bud...really exciting!!!
The commentator before the game was saying in 1998 Milan beat Zeman's Roma 0-5 in the Olimpico, and in one game during his spell at Foggia Milan beat them 8-2.
Revenge is a dish best served cold.

The Best Kind of Contagious
August 31, 2013 § 12 Comments
The little kick of pre-autumn we had a couple weeks back has departed, and another push of summer has ridden in on its wake. I love that cool weather, but the heat and humidity ain't so bad, either, what with the chill of the pond just a few steps and one cannonball away.
I'll tell ya what's going on 'round here: Everything. Every-freakin'-thing. If you've somehow gotten the impression that my life is naught but strolling through lush, misty fields, sniffing cows and eating berries from the vine, well, I got some news for you: There's a wee bit more to it than that. The good part of that news is that the power project is nigh unto completion (does that make any sense at all? Hell, I don't know, but I like it…. what I'm trying to say, if it's not clear, is that's it's 'bout finished). As a whole, I vastly underestimated the project and the sheer amount of toil and burden it would necessitate. But that is ok: I think that electricity should perhaps not be so damn easy, given all the devastation its production wreaks. As a quick aside, I was more than pleased to see that in our first 24 hours of metered connection, we consumed a grand total of 7 kilowatt hours, and that's with four chest freezers and one refrigerator humming. Once we get our solar panels feeding back to the grid – next week, hopefully – we'll get that down to zero or so.
Anyhoo. On top of it all, we're going canoe camping for two nights, a luxury enabled only by the enormous generosity of our dear friend Dan, who will be housesitting for a three-day period early next week. And by "house-sitting," I mean milking a cow, feeding our menagerie of creatures, and generally being on-call should one of said creatures decide to take a walk-about. We love going camping, but rarely do… there just aren't many Dans around, and leaving this place during camping-friendly weather is a fairly unrealistic undertaking, given the sheer volume of day-to-day tasks that are part and parcel of the season. But whatever. It's gonna be great.
On top of it all again, Penny came home from Falk's workshop frothing at the mouth in excitement. (By-the-by, I've been meaning to recommend his new book. It's a wee more technical in parts than my sorry intellect can master, but it's real, real good nonetheless). Part of it was the sheer inspiration of his place, which is a pretty remarkable example of what can be done on a relatively inhospitable piece of land. But another part of it was the recognition that already we have made so much progress and that so much of what he's doing is well within our reach. Every so often, we are blessed with a moment of awareness regarding just what has been accomplished on our little piece of ground. Of what is accomplished from day-to-day. I realize that may sound a little, um, self-certain, but what can I say? It's true. The other truth is that this awareness is generally lost to the minute-by-minute, hour-by-hour passing of our lives, and this is probably a good thing, only because it doesn't seem all that healthy to walk around being all smug about what you've done.
In any event, visiting Falk's place was for Penny one of those clarifying moments, both in regards to what has been accomplished, what will be accomplished, and how we can continue to evolve our practices. I love her excitement and the sheer joy she has for this life and the work it blesses us with, and it's impossible for me to not get caught up in it, myself. It's the best kind of contagious.
Over and out 'til we return.

Enjoy your time off and camping trip! We were lucky growing up to have a Dan nearby, too!
YAY . . . at last you four get a cance to "catch your breath." Canoe camping, while not "vegetating" (something you wouldn't even know how to do anyhow) is a dramatic and important departure from your relentlessly demanding life on the farm. May this adventure be filled with rich opportunity to share being a family in new and special ways! (Thank God for Dan.)
It just so happens that I just got this book and started it today. Already, I can tell it will be a great addition to my permaculture library. Thanks for sharing your and Penny's impressions of the book and the author's work. I can only imagine how inspiring it would be to attend a course. Have a great time camping!
I also recently purchased his book – buying a new book is something I don't do too often and both Mike and I are excited about what we can do on our little place. I also downloaded one of his talks – waiting to get a chance to watch it.
Enjoy your canoe trip!
P.S. my birthday is the 28th – close to Penny's – I did feel a connection with her and hope to get together some time.
I hate to be a wet blanket but I can't help but notice how many able-bodied young people he has doing the Man-well Lah-bor (except for the little back hoe. Nice to see hand labor is not being promoted exclusively.) Not every one can come up with the gig to host education seminars that actually helps you get your work done around your farm. Wish I'd thought of that! Hmmmmm.. maybe gives me an idea. I'm sure Mr Falk worked his butt off getting the whole thing off the ground and to keep it flying.
Renee, I know what you mean about being envious of farmers with lots of willing, able-bodied help around. My husband and I do it all ourselves, too, with "help" from our two toddlers. I have longed for a more supportive, like-minded community myself but it is not always easy to find. Fortunately, I have a new neighbor who just got bees and has asked for my help and another neighbor just offered us some help with his tractor on one of his very rare days off from his night job. So, little by little, a community is developing. It can be done and the connections are priceless. Keep the faith!
Here's a great interview with Ben Falk, via Permaculture Voices.
OK I will keep the faith. Glorious internet! We get positive feedback from light years away! Anecdote: we went into town yesterday for lumber and met a couple from a nearby ranch at the little restaurant (THEY introduced themselves) and now we have a connection we didn't have before. Yes, little by little, I hope our community is developing. In the meantime, last night after dark we listened to the lonely yips and howls of the far off coyote pack. They are a community, too. Maybe they were calling for friends and comrades!
and thanks for the link!

Kissell's Week in Washington, Dec. 7, 2012
This week marked the 71st anniversary of the early morning attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. While this attack is often noted as serving as a turning point in World War II, it also served as an important turning point for our nation. As we take a moment to reflect on the sacrifice of those lost on our American soil and sea, that day and each day since, we must also remember that America's best days remain ahead of us. The people who helped build and defend this nation—the Greatest Generation—still serve as a model for what our nation is, and can further become.
Though our hearts broke with the sudden shock and horror of the initial attack at Pearl Harbor, our nation ultimately entered World War II with a deep sense of preparedness. Answering our nation's call, those who did not head off to war helped here at home, keeping our economy growing and answering the new demands and needs of our industries. As our heroes prepared and deployed for combat, another group of folks became heroes too, creating the weapons, ships, trucks and airplanes tasked with protecting our very freedom and bringing our brave soldiers away to war and back home safely. This is how the Greatest Generation earned its place in history.
Our successes on the battlefield were continuously met time and time again by the successes of our workers, answering the call of a nation in need of a new day, and of new industries. I've often said that when Americans make things, our nation becomes greater. As domestic manufacturing and domestic industries find success, our nation finds success. There is no stronger testament to that than America in the early 1940s. As a country, we would not settle for outfitting and equipping our troops with uniforms, weapons or machinery that were not made on our soil. We were going to send our soldiers off with gear made in the very same small towns many of them came from.
From the front lines of battle to the floors of the automobile, aerospace or textile factories, our nation bound together to lift our country up in a time of need. Some fought and some built, but all helped carry our nation. I love the iconic posters urging folks to continue their hard work to "Keep Producing" and "Keep 'em Firing." Our nation had fully embraced the very essence of its self-sustainability, and did so through the love of our troops and the honor of their service.
While our involvement in World War II did help to spark an industrial revitalization, the successes didn't just end with the war. Our ingenuity and hard work not only helped rebuild our own economy, it helped to rebuild a destroyed, but now free Europe. This will continue to be our finest export, and one we must never discount.
When we show that pride in our country, and pride in the promises made to the American people, we help to highlight the very best of what our nation has to offer. The promise of care for our veterans, or of health and financial security for our seniors and Medicare and Social Security recipients, are all part of the very fabric of our nation that we've fought to protect. Threats from foreign enemies haven't weakened our spirit or our resolve, and we must embrace that same dedication when protecting the programs our seniors and veterans and working families rely on. We owe it to all who came before us.
As we stop this week to think of the brave Americans lost in the attack on Pearl Harbor, and all who have perished in the name of freedom, we must also honor the sacrifice that all those heroes behind the scenes at home have made, and continue to make, as well. Because of them, our nation's best days are ahead of us. If we embrace the very same steadfast and unwavering love of our country, we can help move our nation forward with a preparedness and power to achieve all that we can, even in the face of adversity.

I'm In
I couldn't possibly disagree with others here in extolling the virtues of this product. Normally I am unable to use spray polishes as I end up wheezing, get a headache and feel nauseous. But this is something else entirely...with it's lovely almondy fragrance and efficient cleaning. Having used Method brathroom cleaner and finding that fragrance awful, I avoided trying this for a long time. I shall now however be a devotee and my furniture will receive some long awaited attention. !

Fabulous stuff!
There's not much I can add to all the previous rave reviews except that it's the best polish I have ever used, safe for pets and smells divine. I have solid wood furniture and despair of the silicone based polish epidemic. This loves my wood

I thought I'd give this a go as I'm trying to use more eco stuff around the home, and all the Method products I've used so far are excellent. It's AMAZING, it quite literally made my jaw drop from surprise! I live in a house with very old wooden window frames and sills so am always careful about what I use on them. They've never looked so good, smelt heavenly of sweet almonds but not overpowering, had a lovely sheen and felt like just brushed cotton. I went a bit mad around the rest of the house because it smelt so nice, even using it very lightly on untreated new wood - though it does warn you to spray onto a cloth not directly on the wood. It all looks like new, and did I mention the gorgeous smell?! I know it's odd to get excited about polish but my word it's a good product, as are all the Method items I've tried so far. Buy it, your house will smell like a sweet shop!

Spectrometer enables analysis of bulk materials
Bruker Nano Analyticscontact supplier
M1 Mistral spectrometer
The M1 Mistral u-XRF spectrometer from Bruker Nano can be used to analyse jewellery and alloys, to determine RoHS compliance and to characterise coatings, for example.
It is said to enable the accurate analysis of bulk materials and layers using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technology.
The instrument allows the user to analyse arbitrarily shaped samples without the need for preparation.
All elements from Z=22 (titanium) and higher can be analysed.
This makes a wide range of materials accessible, such as metals, alloys and metallic layers, including multi-layer systems.
Specimens up to a size of 100 x 100 x 100mm can be placed directly on the sample stage and analysed without further preparation.
As the measurement is contactless, arbitrarily shaped specimens - such as finely wrought jewellery or materials of varying thickness - can be analysed easily.
The M1 Mistral's micro-focus X-ray tubes produce sufficient intensity, even down to spot sizes of 100um, depending on the collimator used.
Together with the video microscope for exact sample positioning, this ensures that measurement takes place at the desired spot.
Additional comfort can be added with the optional computer-controlled stage motorisation and autofocus function.
To read more about the M1 Mistral, click on the link on the right-hand side.
