Men's Wearhouse agreed on Tuesday to buy its rival Jos. A. Bank Clothiers for $65 a share in cash, ending months of hostilities between the two retailers.
The companies and their advisers worked through the weekend and finally agreed on a deal that values Jos. A. Bank at $1.8 billion, and will bring together the two leaders in affordable menswear.
Among the terms of the deal, Jos. A. Bank will terminate its agreement to acquire Eddie Bauer.
Despite months of public bickering between the two companies, Douglas S. Ewert, the Men's Wearhouse chief executive, welcomed his new colleagues in a statement.
"All of us at Men's Wearhouse have great respect for the Jos. A. Bank management team and are eager to work with Jos. A. Bank's talented employees," he said.
Robert N. Wildrick, the chairman of Jos. A. Bank's board who had led deal talks for the company, said that after months of negotiations, he had obtained the best possible deal for shareholders.
"The transaction we are announcing today clearly reflects the success of our efforts, providing a substantial premium over any price at which our stock has ever traded, including a 56 percent premium since our interest in Men's Wearhouse became public last October, and allowing our shareholders to receive immediate consideration for their holdings," he said in a statement.
The combined company expects to be the fourth-largest men's apparel retailer in the United States, with annual revenue of about $3.5 billion.
Jos. A. Bank attempted to acquire Men's Wearhouse in October for $48 a share, or $2.3 billion, in a surprise takeover bid just months after George Zimmer, the Men's Wearhouse founder, was pushed out as chairman of the company.
Men's Wearhouse swiftly rejected the offer.
By late October, pressure for Men's Wearhouse to engage in deal talks was increasing, with Jos. A. Bank offering to raise its bid if it gained access to Men's Wearhouse's books, and the hedge fund Eminence Capital calling for Men's Wearhouse to discuss a deal.
But by mid-November, Jos. A. Bank dropped its bid, and just weeks later Men's Wearhouse struck back, offering $1.5 billion for its onetime suitor and paving the way for the deal announced Tuesday.
Men's Wearhouse will finance the deal with debt financing from Bank of America Merrill Lynch and JPMorgan Chase, but said it expected to deliver quickly because of the strong cash flow from the combined companies.

Danish teen finds rare Viking coins
COPENHAGEN — Danish museum officials said that an archaeological dig last year has revealed 365 items from the Viking era, including 60 rare coins.
Danish National Museum spokesman Jens Christian Moesgaard said the coins have a distinctive cross motif attributed to Norse King Harald Bluetooth, who is believed to have brought Christianity to Norway and Denmark.
Sixteen-year-old Michael Stokbro Larsen found the coins and other items with a metal detector in a field in northern Denmark.
Stokbro Larsen, who often explores with his detector, said friends find him "a bit nerdy."
Moesgaard said on Thursday that it was the first time since 1939 that so many Viking-era coins have been found, calling them "another important piece in the puzzle" of history.

If you have ever seen your sleeping pet's feet move, you may have assumed that they were dreaming - and you would be right about that. While many pets do not show outward signs of dreaming, experts assure us that all mammals dream. No one really knows the purpose dreams serve, but experts seem to agree that dreaming is essential for our well-being.

Tim Holtz Shattered Cardstock–embossed!
February 25, 2014 by Core'dinator
Filed under Core Blog, Graphic 45, Tim Holtz
Hello, Core'dinations fans! I hope you are having a great week. Vivian Keh here today to share with you a card that I recently crafted while daydreaming about spring. I used my Core'dinations Cardstock exclusively on all my handmade flowers for several wreaths I made to decorate the house for Christmas, and the love of Core is now continuing on my handmade flowers for the spring.
For the flowers, I used "Creme Brulee" from Core'dinations Graphic 45 Signature Series. die-cutting them with a Sizzix "Flower, Dogwood" #658405 Die Set.
To achieve the soft veining in the leaves, I used a stylus on the backside of my die-cut pieces to press vein lines into the leaves, sanded off the ridges with my Sand-it Gadget, and lightly misted. The mist absorbed along the sanded areas to create a very soft look that I love!
The pretty embossed pattern was achieved using a Sizzix "Flowers and Perfume" #658969 Embossing Folder Set and a soft neutral hue from Core'dinations' Tim Holtz Kraft-Core "Shattered" Collection.
Thanks so much for visiting with me today! Hope spring reaches you soon if it hasn't already!

Kate Nolan Denhame here and I am all about the Tim Holtz Distressed Cardstock from Core'dinations. Did you know this line of cardstock coordinates perfecly with most of the Distress Paints? It sure does!
3) Cut a 5″ x 3.75″ piece of Snowflake Core'dinations Cardstock. This will be your canvas for the matching Distress Paints.
5) Run your Distress Paint along the top of the wave stencil. *Some hints on this one…test your Distress Paint before you use it on your cut cardstock & make sure do not use too much paint.
6) Delicately lift the stencil off of your cardstock.
9) Repeat steps 7 and 8.
10) Allow the paint to completely dry before adding a stamped sentiment in the bottom right hand corner (if you want it like my first card). For my second card I trimmed the painted mat by 1/2″ and split the sentiment.
11) Mat the painted cardstock onto the mats you created in step 2.
12) Glue the matted cardstock on to the center front of your card base.
13) Add simple embellishments around the sentiment.
14) Give to someone to enjoy!
Make an impression with Core'dinations

….that is with our CORE IMPRESSIONS! Debbie Standard is rocking the layouts for us today. ENJOY!!!!
Creating with the Core Impressions line is SO MUCH fun! For this page I wanted an embossed background in a soft color so I chose a sheet from the Pink Paisley collection as my base which I sanded with my Sand It Gadget and then dusted with my Dust Buddy. Then I just went through my scraps (and yes I keep all reusable Core'dination's scraps) and picked colors from the basic core colors that went with my photo and background paper. To tie them all together I used a neutral beige to back each square. I embossed each square with Darice embossing folders, sanded them and then matted them with the Neutral beige. I added my title and some embellishments both hand made and pre-made to compete the page. The beautiful girls are my daughter (left) and her bff.

AND another layout from Debbie Standard working that Core Impressions…this time the Cosmo Cricket Woodgrain cardstock. Debbie uses these for her CSI case files. The colors are always amazing!
The cool thing about Core Impressions, in addition to the fact they come embossed, is that you can add layers and layers of sanding and inking and sewing like Debbie did here:

Let's warm up today with some SUNNY layouts

Filed under Basic Grey, Core Blog, Sizzix, Tim Holtz
Suzanna here to share with you a layout of those distant yet approaching warmer, summer days! We all need a bit of sunshine right now to cheer us up.
Have you noticed the increase of projects on an angle lately? I thought the slight tilt to this layout was only fitting for these pictures of the kids at the water park as they slipped and slid through the slides. The embossed cardstock adds to the water park feel.
Stamping on the textured cardstock can be tricky but don't worry, Core'dinations has just the solution for that; 110 pound smooth cardstock! Just perfect for stamping on AND better yet for those stamped images that have a corresponding die like these letters from Lawn Fawn!
Not all of your cardstock needs to be self embossed. I mixed Spotted, Core Impressions and Core Essentials that I embossed myself and left just as it is. Check out the "rolled" edge that running the 110 pound cardstock with a die through your die cutting machine leaves. It's not that abrupt ending of the edge.
I created a sketch of this layout for you so you can adapt it for your own scrapping pleasures! If you create something based on my layout and/or sketch, please do share! I would love to see what you were inspired to do!

It is so easy to add interest to a layout chock full of cardstock only by using simple techniques like embossing and sanding. You can see where I sanded the papers and the Kraft-Core pops through.

Off the page Holiday inspiration in here!

Filed under Core Blog
We have some amazing projects from Gail Lindner for you today! If these don't inspire you to get that Core and take if off the page onto some Holiday home decor projects than I don't know what will!
I have officially started creating projects for Christmas! You might recall I created a cute Christmas countdown a little while back (see it here). Well . . . I loved using the embroidery hoop as my "frame" and have been wanting to do more to create a cluster on my wall for Christmas. A trip to the craft store was in order and I purchased a few different sized hoops.
Here's my next one:
This is a great project for using up scraps of Core'dinations! I dug through to find a few colours to work together, cut strips and started assembling my "tree"!
Of course, this being Core cardstock, I couldn't leave it plain! I had to emboss and sand the strips in various designs to add even more interest.
The background is from the fabulous Kraft-Core Seasonal Impressions collection. Instant Christmas!
The starts were die cut from Core Couture Glitter Cardstock for a bit of sparkle! This little tree was so easy and fun to make – here are a couple more ideas:
- For the front of your Christmas cards! These will be easy to mass-produce.
- Get the kids involved – maybe adding the stars or other embellishments to the pre-made trees.
Thanks for popping by and please pop by my blog for more inspiration!

It's just typical of me to be creating Christmas projects so close to the actual day! But my decor items get brought out each year so I know they will get plenty of attention in the long run!
Inspired by an image I saw online, I wanted to create a sort of looped wire wreath, accented with stars. Sorry about the vague description! How about I just show you my project so you know what I mean?
I decided to create mine on a smaller scale and pop it into a shadow box frame. Honestly, I was really wanting to use the kraft coloured Seasonal Impressions cardstock! Isn't it a fantastic, subtle background???
I chose three shades of Gemstones cardstock for the stars, so they would have a slight sheen, and scattered them around my wire wreath.
Simple but cute! I can honestly see me creating more of these for different occassions such as Valentines or new babies. Just think of the color combinations and die cut shapes you could use!

Obama Formally Taps Tom Wheeler as FCC Chairman
Obama Formally Taps Tom Wheeler as FCC Chairman
President Obama on Wednesday formally tapped Tom Wheeler, managing director of Core Capital Partners, as the next chairman of the Federal Communications Commission.
FCC Commissioner Mignon L. Clyburn will serve as interim chairman until Wheeler gets Senate confirmation. Clyburn's appointment as interim FCC chairman makes her the first woman to head the FCC.
Wheeler, a former executive of two major industry association -- first the National Cable and Television Association and later the Cellular Telecommunications and Internet Association -- will replace departing FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski (pictured below left).
Also read: Obama Expected to Name Tom Wheeler as FCC Chairman
President Obama, announcing the appointment at a White House event, cited Wheeler's long history in the telecommunications industry.
"Tom knows his stuff inside and out," said the president. He said Wheeler had been at the very forefront of technology.
Wheeler, who is co-founder of the SmartBrief, a targeted news service about the media industry, had been expected to succeed Genachowski.
Wheeler had been active in Obama's first campaign, and after Obama was elected in 2008, he served on the Obama transition team.
Despite Wheeler's ties to industry associations, he is expected to reinforce the FCC's commitment to net neutrality, which the president has strongly supported.
But some public-interest groups on Tuesday questioned whether Wheeler might be less of a consumer advocate on other issues -- whether it be mergers, of media ownership.
"I've had the pleasure of knowing Tom personally and professionally for almost 20 years," Genachowski said in a statement. "At this exciting time in this important sector, I can attest to Tom's commitment to harness the power of communications technology to improve people's lives, to drive our global competitiveness, and to advance the public interest. The FCC's role has never been more essential, and with Tom's deep policy expertise and his first-hand experience as a technology investor, he is a superb choice to advance the FCC's mission of promoting innovation, investment, competition, and consumer protection."
Clyburn in a statement thanked the president for her appointment. "I am deeply humbled by the opportunity to lead the Federal Communications Commission as interim chairwoman during this transition period, and I thank President Obama for this incredible and historic honor," she said.
Said consumer advocate group Public Knowledge of the Clyburn appointment: "We are delighted that Commissioner Clyburn has been appointed acting Chair of the FCC. During her time at the agency, she has been a passionate voice for the underserved and underrepresented.
"Commissioner Clyburn has supported the cause of an open Internet, broadband for all Americans, robust competition and strong consumer protection. She has taken up matters, like prison phone justice, that don't make headlines, but make our society more just. We urge acting Chair Clyburn to be more than a mere placeholder for the permanent Chair. She should take action to implement President Obama's agenda of broadband competition, consumer protection and fairness."
Obama noted that Wheeler is the only dual member of both the cable television and the wireless industries hall of fame.

To start, click an image below to shop by Above Ground Pool Model or click on our Comparison button to shop by Above Ground Pools Size and package.
* Warranties are provided by the manufacturer and are pro-rated.
We know that choosing an Above Ground swimming pool is not an easy decision. We have the highest quality selection of Above Ground Pools and pool packages to fit every budget. Combine that with our easy selection process, you'll be swimming in no time!
We Sell only North America's Best Manufacturers of Above Ground Pools.
A- Above ground pools are engineered & designed to be installed above the ground only. In order to maintain the structural integrity of the pool it is not recommended to bury the pool wall more than a few inches. The only exception would be if a proper retaining wall is built and drainage tile is laid as well no backfill placed against the pool structure. You should speak to one of our pool experts before considering this option. Your pool warranty can be voided if the pool wall is backfilled against and or buried more than a few inches into the ground, additionally there is a possibility of the pool wall imploding when the water level is lowered. If you are interested in submerging a pool, we offer semi-inground and inground pool kits that would be more suitable for this application.
A- It is never recommended to install any pool unless the ground has been properly graded and leveled. The reason for this is the structure of the pool can be affected by the improper weight distribution of the water level and weaken it. Proper water circulation can also be affected by uneven water levels which can subsequently create issues with the water chemistry of the pool. By properly grading and tamping the ground prior to installation you are providing an initial protection to your investment and creating a sound base which will hold your pool for years to come. It is highly recommended to rent or borrow a transit leveler to assist in the tedious process of leveling your pool. Be sure to focus the greatest amount of attention on the radius track of the pool. TIP: The track of the pool should be leveled within a 1/8 - 1/4 of an inch. The most important part of any pool installation is leveling the ground – be sure to take great care when doing this.
A – You can install an above ground pool on a concrete base but only if it is a round model; never oval, due to the buttress that require being buried below grade. The concrete pad must still be properly graded with a mason sand base underneath it. Once the base is settled and dried the pool installation can then be done. Ensure pool track is perfectly levelled within a 1/8 inch or better on a concrete pad. Highly advised that the use of pool foam cove is used on concrete pool bases. Do be mindful that the base of concrete will need to be approximately 1 – 2 feet larger around the diameter of the pool.
A- All above ground pool models have steel walls however only those with resin components (I.e. top rail, bottom rail, top stabilizer track and plates) are recommended for use with a salt system. The reason for this is the corrosive properties of salt can affect any exposed metal components on the pool. Seeing that the metal wall is lined and the remainder of the exposed components are resin, the manufactures deem these pools salt water friendly and fully warrant them for use with Salt water. TIP: It is highly recommended to use a wall foam lining behind the liner.
A – No. True above ground pools are designed to be left up year round. It is relatively simple to winterize an above ground pool in several basic steps and a fairly short period of time. A properly closed pool can stand through years of Canadian Winters. Generally ¾ of the pool water is left in the pool during the Winter period, this is imperative as the engineering of the pool would fail if completely drained. Be sure to follow the Winterizing instructions for your pool closely! TIP: Never plug your skimmer hole! Additionally, remove all attached hose at the bottom of the skimmer and ensure water can clearly pass through the skimmer. Failure to do this will cause buckling at your pool wall and potentially irreversible damages which are not covered under manufactures warranties.
A- Above ground pools are relatively basic to set up and most people can readily do this within a few days, we're happy to report that thousands of our customers have taken on this task successfully. Each pool comes with a step by step instruction manual as well as installation and plumbing manuals are available online. For added convenience we also have generic videos posted on our site & YouTube to assist you with the planning and installation of your pool.
A – The design of an above ground pool is mainly for a constant water depth whereas an inground pool design can have multiple depths due to the more variable design structure which goes into the ground. An above ground design is limited to round pools only being gradually dished out in the center by no more than 6 – 12 inches (depending on pool size). This has much to do with how far the pool liner will stretch and as well the structural design of the above ground wall.
A- You should not install a slide or diving board on an above ground pool as the depth is not sufficient to handle the impact of some people as they enter the water. It can become a serious hazard for spinal and head injuries and even death. Slides as well as diving boards are meant for properly designed inground pools only. We strongly recommend that you do not install or use slides or diving boards on any above ground pool. All bathers should practice feet first entry and enjoy swimming safely.

ABSTRACT: We found only a recent report of robotic-assisted nephropexy, in a young female with associated dismembered pyeloplasty. Herein we present the first case of isolated robotic nephropexy. A 34-year old female was referred to our Urological Division history of right flank pain and evidence at intravenous urography of a 5-6 cm descent of right kidney moving from supine to erect position. The robotic nephropexy was performed with a transperitoneal approach and 4 trocars. The kidney was wrapped up with a Parietex Composite (PCO) mesh (Tyco Healthcare), previously precut in an hockey stick shape to obtain a "spoon effect" to push up the lower pole of kidney. Despite the laparoscopic or retroperitoneoscopic procedures, the robotic-assisted nephropexy appears easier, with the particular advantages of the intracorporeal suturing and a better intraoperative view. The use of mesh, in our opinion, is preferable respect the decapsulation of the kidney, to avoid unnecessary blood loss and possible scarring.Archivio italiano di urologia, andrologia: organo ufficiale [di] Società italiana di ecografia urologica e nefrologica / Associazione ricerche in urologia 09/2011; 83(3):160-2.

ABSTRACT: Bowel intussusception is a common complication of abdominal surgery. However, the literature on intussusception after congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) repair is scarce. A 24-month-old female was admitted with vomiting, crying and leukocytosis, with no objective abdominal signs. The chest x-ray showed the presence of bowel in the left hemithorax. Surgical exposure reduced a hernia across a Bochdalek defect, involving part of the left colon and the transverse colon. On the 7th postoperative day, the patient had symptoms of intestinal obstruction with worsening of her general condition. The explorative laparotomy evidenced an ileoileal intussusception, 15 cm from the ileocecal valve, in absence of a leading point. A postoperative intussusception in a similar case could be explained by atony of the herniated bowel, possibly a functional leading point in the postoperative phase, when the peristalsis is reactivated.Archives de Pédiatrie 06/2011; 18(6):646-8. · 0.41 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: This Letter to the Editor deals with the case of a 4-years-old female affected by a mesenteric cyst, initially confused with an ovarian cyst. The emergency situation justified our open approach. However, as expressed by the Authors, a laparoscopy should be always considered, also in pediatric age.La Clinica terapeutica 01/2010; 161(3):225-6; author reply 226. · 0.33 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: During carotid endarterectomy, the use of locoregional anesthesia to achieve a combined superficial and deep cervical plexus block can cause cardiovascular, respiratory, and neurologic complications. Seeking to reduce risk and find an easier procedure, we applied locoregional anesthesia and an intermediate cervical plexus block in a series of patients who underwent carotid endarterectomy. From 2006 through 2007, 183 patients underwent primary carotid endarterectomy at our hospital. Mean age was 75.9 +/- 9.9 yr; mean body mass index, 27.3 +/- 6.7 kg/m(2); and median American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification, P3 (range, P2-P4). All procedures combined an intermediate cervical plexus block with subcutaneous infiltration of the incision line. We inserted a 15-mm, 25G needle to its full length, perpendicular to the skin along the posterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, midway between the mastoid process and the clavicle. We injected 10 mL of 0.75% ropivacaine solution for 3 to 5 minutes. This block was systematically combined with subcutaneous infiltration of the incision line with the ropivacaine (0.75%, 10 mL), and sometimes also with 2% topical lidocaine intraoperatively. If necessary, intraoperative sedation, analgesia, or both were given to patients to improve their compliance. Intraoperative topical lidocaine was required in 59 patients (32.2%), and intravenous midazolam, fentanyl, or both were required in 29 patients (15.8%). Two procedures were converted to general anesthesia (1.1%). No perioperative deaths or complications occurred. Postoperatively, 2 patients experienced strokes and 1 sustained a myocardial infarction (total rate, 1.6%). We found the intermediate cervical plexus block to be feasible, effective, and safe, with low perioperative and postoperative complication rates. Herein, we report our findings.Texas Heart Institute journal / from the Texas Heart Institute of St. Luke's Episcopal Hospital, Texas Children's Hospital 01/2010; 37(3):297-300. · 0.65 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: A 72-year-old man was admitted with a lower abdominal mass, occasionally detected during a previous laparoscopy. The cystoscopy revealed a bulging mass 5 cm in diameter at the vesical dome. The computed tomography (CT) scan showed an extravescical extension in close relationship with the posterior abdominal wall. Two consecutive endoscopic biopsies and a CT-guided percutaneous biopsy were not helpful. At surgery, a mass about 10 cm in diameter was found at the vesical dome and removed "en-block". The microscopic examination showed a chronic urachal abscess. To our knowledge, this is the second case of asymptomatic urachal abcess mimicking a bladder neoplasm. The reasons of a surgical approach are discussed.Archivio italiano di urologia, andrologia: organo ufficiale [di] Società italiana di ecografia urologica e nefrologica / Associazione ricerche in urologia 12/2009; 81(4):251-2.

ABSTRACT: The persistence of hypoglossal artery is a rare malformation. Association of carotid stenosis with persistent hypoglossal artery can lead to cerebral posterior symptoms due to ischemia intolerance. The Authors report a case of unexpected intraoperative detection of this anomaly in a patient with high grade stenosis of the right internal carotid artery. Right carotid endarterectomy was performed, and no shunt was used. The postoperative course was normal. The literature was reviewed.Il Giornale di chirurgia 06/2009; 30(5):240-2.
Article: Un caso excepcional de dehiscencia yatrógena de bypass axilofemoral: control mediante estrategia abierta y endovascular combinadas[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: La dehiscencia proximal de un bypass axilofemoral es un acontecimiento catastrófico rara vez debido a luxación anterior postraumática del hombro. Presentamos el caso de un hombre de 74 años de edad con luxación del hombro derecho que se redujo satisfactoriamente. Al cabo de tres horas, experimentó shock hemodinámico con un hematoma pulsátil y que se expandía a nivel del hombro derecho, región pectoral e infraclavicular. Se efectuó exposición quirúrgica de la arteria humeral derecha, y la angiografía intraoperatoria reveló una fuga anastomótica proximal. La inserción de un balón hasta un nivel proximal a la fuga mejoró el estado hemodinámico y mediante un abordaje infraclavicular repetido se drenó el hematoma. Para la fuga arterial se interpuso un injerto de politetrafluoroetileno de 8 mm entre la arteria axilar y el injerto existente. Se aborda la utilidad de un abordaje combinado (endovascular + cirugía abierta).Anales de Cirugía Vascular 05/2009; 23(3). DOI:10.1016/j.acvsp.2008.08.021

ABSTRACT: La rupture proximale d'un pontage axillo-fémoral est un événement catastrophique dont l'étiologie est rarement une luxation antérieure post-traumatique de l'épaule. Nous présentons l'observation d'un homme de 74 ans qui a présenté une luxation douloureuse de l'épaule droite qui a été réduite avec succès. Trois heures plus tard, est survenu un état de choc hémodynamique avec un hématome expansif et pulsatile au niveau de l'épaule, et des régions pectorale et sous-claviculaire. Un abord chirurgical de l'artère brachiale droite a été effectué, et l'angiographie per-opératoire a montré une fuite anastomotique proximale. Le contrôle de l'hémostase proximale par un ballon de 8 mm a permis d'améliorer le statut hémodynamique, et l'hématome a été vidangé par une incision sous-claviculaire. La fuite artérielle a été réparée par un pontage en polytétrafluoroéthylène de 8 mm entre l'artère axillaire et le pontage initial. L'utilité d'une approche chirurgicale combinée (endovasculaire et conventionnelle) est discutée.Annales de Chirurgie Vasculaire 05/2009; 23(3). DOI:10.1016/j.acvfr.2009.10.010

Article: Robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy in Italy: Perioperative data on the first 150 patients[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In 2004 we performed the first robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) at Aosta, Italy. Data about our first 150 RALPs are presented. Mean patient age was 65.2 (range 51-75) years; mean preoperative PSA level 7.9 (range 1.8-25.0) ng/ml. Nerve sparing was performed in 109 cases (72.7%) with lymph nodes dissection in 27 (18.0%). Operative time: patients 1-50, mean 213.3 (range 185-290) min; patients 51-100, 207.3 (range 185-335) min; patients 101-150, 171.7 (range 123-270) min. Two procedures were converted to open. Mean blood loss was 235 (range 20-1000) ml with two blood transfusions. One patient was reoperated for anastomotic leakage. Four patients were treated by colostomy and rectal suture for rectal injury (n = 3) or recto-urethral fistula (n = 1). The overall complication incidence was 13.3% (20 events), while mortality was nil. The incidence of complications is slightly higher than in major pilot centres but it is comparable, hence RALP also appears feasible in our italian peripheral centre.International Journal of Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery 12/2008; 4(4):381-6.

Article: A Singular Case of Iatrogenic Axillofemoral Bypass Disruption: A Dramatic Event Treated by a Lucky Combined Approach[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Proximal disruption of an axillofemoral bypass is a catastrophic event rarely caused by a posttraumatic anterior dislocation of the shoulder. Herein, we present a 74-year-old man with a painful dislocation of the right shoulder that was successfully reduced. Three hours later he had hemodynamic shock with an expanding and pulsating hematoma at the level of the right shoulder, pectoral and infraclavicular region. Surgical exposure of the right brachial artery was carried out, and intraoperative angiography revealed a proximal anastomotic leakage. The distal ballooning improved the hemodynamic status, and by a redo infraclavicular incision the hematoma was drained. The arterial leak was repaired by an 8 mm polytetrafluoroethylene interposed graft between the axillary artery and existing graft. The utility of a combined approach (endovascular + open surgical) is discussed.Annals of Vascular Surgery 10/2008; 23(3):413.e5-7. DOI:10.1016/j.avsg.2008.08.029 · 1.17 Impact Factor

Thank you gifts for nurses
Mama to baby girl born 2/14. Expecting #2 6/16. Librarian. Etsy shop owner. rodwoods.etsy.com (custom baby blocks)
My SO (who is uber creative. Wants to do miniture gift baskets. It's not too expensive either , mini baskets/ shredded filling from dollar tree and a few small things from there, then we'll get a big bag of nice individual wrapped chocs and a few more high end treats from cost plus. Eg mini shortbread ,mini jams, tea or coffee sampler(they do a load of mini nice food stuff)
Or you could put whatever you want.
Then SO will wrap in clear cellophane and tie with ribbon.
We usually do bigger baskets at Christmas for neighbors and the cleaner and everyone thinks they are great. Obviously left up to me this wouldn't happen lol
account closed for personal reasons
As a nurse, home baked goods, depending ont he hospital lots of nurses won't eat. Individual sweet treats or a bottle of good lotion for the unit is always good for our ridiculously dry hands haha.

BFP!! April 4/2013
Miss Makinley arrived Dec. 11, 2013
I wanted to make little bags of goodies, but got lazy. So I went a bought a box of candy bars and I'm just going to put a tag on them that says "Thank You" I got the idea from here: www.craftaholicsanonymous.net/hospi...
I have a tendency of biting off more than I can chew, so I'm glad I'm taking the easy route for this.
Whatever you do, make sure to do something that both shifts can enjoy. :) You don't want your poor night-shift nurse(s) getting left out. I like the idea of the snack basket for everyone - maybe have it available in the room and then move it to the nurse's station when you're discharged.

Editor's note: Starting today, Sandi Wicher, a Walla Walla-based master tai chi trainer, will begin a four-part series about her personal experience with bilateral knee replacement surgery, from diagnosis to recovery. Her columns will run in the U-B's Health & Fitness section on Thursdays.
As a baby boomer, I have lived with a mindset of bigger, faster, stronger.
Aerobics and exercise nonstop, seven days a week.
I'd always felt better and healthier when I kept moving and kept exercising. As I aged, my thoughts changed as my knees started giving me trouble.
Pain when walking, then swelling. Discomfort when cycling, then swelling. Discomforts when riding my horses, then swelling.
It started to seem like anything I would do there would be discomfort, then swelling. I began to wear knee braces to teach my tai chi classes. I spent more time sitting with ice on them and my legs up because of the swelling.
Life without being able to enjoy doing the everyday things I enjoyed doing, I decided to practice what I teach and see a physician.
The first physician confirmed what I had thought: I needed a knee replacement. As recommended whenever it appears major surgery is needed, I sought a second opinion. This time, though, I asked the second doctor to check my left knee also as it actually had begun to hurt more when my right knee was first diagnosed. It was confirmed I needed both knees replaced.
I asked if both knees could be done at the same time, not wanting interrupt my active life twice for long recovery periods. After I spent a long time with the doctor, asking questions, getting information on knee replacements, seeing knee replacement models, letting the doctor see what type of person I was and getting to know and trust him, he said I was a good candidate for both at once, called bilateral knee replacement.
The surgery was done in early October 2012. The day after, a physical therapist came to my room and said it was time to get up and try to walk. He went through his instructions and safety concerns.
I quickly realized wished I had strengthened my abdominal muscles more before surgery. Without the use of my legs, it was a challenge moving in and out of bed using my arms and stomach muscles. By the third day, though, I was walking down the hall with the use of a walker and ready to go home.
Waiting at home were three machines that would become a part of my life for the next three weeks. One was to move my legs up and down (three to four hours on the left leg, then on the right leg, at least twice a day). Two other machines, one for each leg, supplied cold to my knees to help keep the swelling down, and a third provided a pulsing compression to my feet to keep the circulation moving.
A nurse came once a week to answer questions, check on my pain medications and check my vitals. The physical therapist came twice a week to introduce me to required exercises and instructions on completing them several times a day. (Of course this is while I have machines for ice and movement attached. How many hours are there in a day?)
The exercises the therapist instructed me to do were hard and they hurt, but I was determined. I also added seated tai chi to my required exercises.
By the second week, the therapist was amazed with my progress and attributed it to my dedication to doing the exercises.
In reality, the hardest thing to do was get out of bed, get up off the toilet and sleep. I am a stomach sleeper so sleeping on my back was extremely difficult. The third week I developed a calf muscle cramp that hurt more when walking then my knees did.
I am so thankful for a couple of things. I had prepared myself and conditioned my body before surgery, which was a big help getting started in recovery.
And I'm thankful for my husband Gordon, who was my nurse, cook, gofer, house cleaner, my crutch and my strength when I questioned my decision to do both knees at the same time. He was at my side when I needed help, to change my machines, disconnect or move them and to get anything I needed or wanted.
My private health insurance also deserves thanks. It was good to learn it would pay for the physical therapy machines at home for three weeks and the home visits from the physical therapist and nurse. I would also be covered for extended outpatient therapy during recovery.
Usually I don't even have enough medical expenses in a year to meet my $5,000 deductible, so I was glad to be covered when needed. Insurance is an expense I realize is important, but I wonder every time I write a check if it is worth all the money I put out. A definite yes!
I was also grateful for my pain meds. I do not take any medicines and do not like to take anything besides vitamins. But drugs to keep my bowels moving were a must because of the pain meds I was taking. I also had medication to help me sleep. The pain medication helped me get through all the exercises and allowed my stitches to heal with a tolerable level of pain.
My mind told me I could get off the pain meds quicker than one should, but my body told me to wait till I was healed and ready.
Next week: Outpatient physical therapy — pain and persistence on the road back to normal use.

The 2015 Mazda CX-5 is mostly carryover from last year. The only notable change is the addition of Mazda Advanced Keyless Entry as standard equipment on Touring and Grand Touring trims.
The biggest news for 2014 is the more powerful 2.5-liter engine in Touring and Grand Touring models of the Mazda CX-5. On the safety front, the CX-5 is available with Smart City Brake Support, which can automatically stop the car in lower-speed situations when a collision appears imminent.
The 2016 Mazda CX-5 has the versatility, taller ride height and economic sensibility of other compact SUVs like the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4 and Ford Escape. Yet it stands apart from rivals with what we'll call its Mazda-ness. That is, it has surprising spunk and sporty handling. Among compact crossover SUVs, the Mazda CX-5 is among the most fun to drive. As with other Mazdas, the CX-5 isn't especially powerful, but it does more with less thanks to its Skyactiv technology that encompasses a responsive engine, lightweight body and dynamically tuned suspension. It adds up to invigorating driving manners and admirable fuel efficiency. The CX-5 slightly trails the RAV4 and CR-V in cargo capacity, but shines with its athleticism and value.

Terra-cotta tiles, well-chosen antiques, and original artwork create a vibrantly chic atmosphere for what has always been one of Whistler's top fine-dining restaurants. Local farmers grow produce exclusively for Araxi's chef, who also makes good use of regional cheeses, game, and fish. The food is fresh and innovative, best described as Pacific Northwest cuisine with a nod to Italy. Seafood is a specialty, so while you can certainly order a superbly prepared beef tenderloin, it's dishes like alder-smoked Arctic char or handmade pasta with wild prawns, scallops, and mussels that steal the show. The two-tier seafood tower is a must-try for seafoodies who love to graze and share. Wine aficionados take note: the wine list is 27 pages long. A heated patio is open in summer, and the lounge is a popular afternoon and après-ski spot, especially for its oyster bar.

My spouse and I dined at Araxi for dinner on a Thursday evening in early August 2014. We made a reservation using the Open Table reservation system, which was a necessity because Araxi is one of the most popular restaurants in Whistler. Araxi is located toward the middle of the Village Stroll (in the Village Square), near the grocery store and the liquor store. Araxi is open for weekend brunch and daily dinner. Araxi is located in the Blackcomb Hotel
and offers both indoor and outdoor seating. The classy indoor seating area includes tables, a raw bar, and a long regular bar. White tablecloths, silver flatware, and glassware abounds. A raised flagstone patio provides outdoor seating. Umbrellas top the tables, and the restaurant provides heaters and blankets, too. Araxi is part of the Toptable restaurant group, which includes Araxi in Whistler and Blue Water Cafe, CinCin, West, and Thierry in Vancouver. The chef at Araxi is James Walt, who has cooked at the James Beard House in New York City and holds other notable commendations. Even though we had a reservation to dine at Araxi, we waited approximately 15 minutes before the hostess sat us. The hostess first directed us to a high-top table in the outdoor bar area, but we chose to sit at the outdoor bar itself, which provided disappointing service. We searched for the bartender to order drinks, then tracked him down to request the complimentary popcorn that he provided to the guests sitting at the indoor part of the bar, then located him to request our check, and so on. Because we actually sat AT the bar, he should have always been present. Immediately after the hostess seated us at a table on the edge of the patio, a server delivered crusty bread and oil to our table while we perused the menu. First, we shared a beet salad, which was a combination of red and yellow beets accompanied by mozzarella cheese, goat cheese, and pecans, and arranged beautifully on the long, thin rectangular plate. For one of our entrees, we ordered scallops, which the chef served atop bright orange carrots and vibrant green snap peas, accented by crispy prosciutto. Fabulous! Even more delicious (although not as colorful) was our second entree, beef cheeks accompanied by cauliflower and potato puree. The presentation of our appetizer and entrees was fantastic, and worthy of any fine-dining restaurant in any big city. For dessert, we shared Pemberton Farms cherries accompanied by house-made sour cream ice cream. (The ice cream was amazing! We can still taste it months later!) When our server delivered our, some mignardises accompanied it, which lent an air of sophistication to the restaurant service. Our meal at Araxi was one of the best meals that we ate during our 10-day trip to the Pacific Northwest. The food at Araxi was delicious, the presentation was stellar, and the service was good (which could have been great if not for that bartender!).

Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
Game of Thrones newbie here!
I've never seen any episodes of the show, but I have been intending to start watching it for a while - or to read the book. I always thought I'd start watching the show first, especially since I have the first season available at home, but I haven't found the time to get around to it (especially with a bunch of other shows I have to finish fist). A couple of days ago I borrowed the book from the library (it was amazing luck that it happened to be available when I came over) and I've read the prologue and the next 3 and a half chapters - so far it's just setting things up. (I read relatively slowly, because I rarely read at home, unless the book gets me super-excited, and most of my reading is done on buses and trams and while waiting at the dentist etc.)
I have a couple of questions for people who have both read the book and seen the show:
1) Do you think I should finish the book first and only then watch season 1, or would it better to start watching the show now? Or maybe even combine the two?
2) Does the show diverge from the books significantly, and does it include material that's not in the books?
I know who plays the characters on the show, but so far I only know one big spoiler
and some mild/general ones
- that Sean Bean aka Ned Start does not survive season 1 -
, so please don't spoil it any further for me. :)
like Jaime Lannister having a thing for his sister
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
in relation to spoiler number 2 all I can say is as things go along you have a good argument against incest.
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
I love the books more than is rational or healthy. If you aren't a big reader though, you may be better off just enjoying the TV show. If you dig it and want to delve more into the world, the character's motivations and some of the subtleties of the plot you can pick up the books afterwards.
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
DevilEyes, I have the first 4 books sitting on my shelf, as yet unopened. I was going to start reading them at the end of this TV season. However, after last week's episode I am going to hold off on reading the books a little longer. I would have HATED to know that scene was coming!
Venardhi, how much can I read to simply catch up to the TV show without coming across spoilers for the show?
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
^The first three seasons cover the first two books and the first 60% or so of the third. When you get to the equivalent of the big scene from last week's episode you'd want to stop reading, because soon after that major developments that won't happen in the show until season four begin to occur.
To the OP: like Venardhi, I'm ridiculously fond of the books, but they're obviously a big time commitment. The first season of the show is extraordinarily faithful to the first book, so you might want to watch that and decide if you're interested in reading a prose version of it, with more backstory and more world-building detail. The later seasons tend to alter storylines in ways that don't change major plot points but do make some characters and themes pretty different. The show occasionally features original scenes or scenes implied but not actually described in the books, but so far there are no invented storylines.
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
There are a few storylines that border on wholecloth inventions for the show, especially in the second season. I have my issues with many of the changes but also acknowledge my high level of bias in favor of the book versions so I can't be a fair judge of them. Viewers of the show seem to be just fine with them.
While you can read up to the events of the end of this season in the books, you will be overlapping with stories that have yet to be introduced into the show. There are important characters and plots that appear early on in the 3rd book who are being held back for the 4th season of the show.
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
I watched the first season on DVD and I was so anxious to continue the story that I started to read the second book. The first book and first season must have been so similar that starting from the second book posed no problems for me. I have now read books 2-5 and maybe one day I will read the first book.
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
^Same here. Watched season one and then went on to read book two, skipping book one entirely. No problems. Filled in the blanks from book one over time by skimming through wikis and forums.
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
I actually just started the series myself tonight. We watched three episodes.
First impressions... apparently this takes place before the missionary position was invented...
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
The only reliable way to avoid spoilers for the story in general is, I think, to read the books ahead of where the story is on television. Also, they have depth and breadth that you can't really get in a ten-hour TV show, not to mention better special effects. For my money, certain scenes are almost necessarily better through the use of prose; for example,
the sheer pathos of Ned's execution scene, where he looks like death even before the sword falls.
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
Oh, read the books. The show had an excellent first season that was as perfect an adaptation as could be expected but the following two have really let it down.
The show just dumbs things down far too much. Pretty much all the elements of mystery and foreshadowing have been eliminated (House of Undying in the show was utterly pointless!), the moral ambiguity has been severely removed so now Tyrion is some handsome, Fonz-esque, whitewashed audience favourite. Stannis has gone from being one of the coolest mother fuckers in the history of fantasy fiction in to being an unrecognisable clingy pussy that just wants to get his dick wet.
Oh, and as for the sex. Expect juvenile made-for-the-show antics with Ros, or American Pie-esque comedy sequences such as Pod getting with some hookers. All this shit gets tons of screentime while the show cuts important character beats like Jaime's dream.
Show is a fun distraction but the books are among the best you could read. HBO GoT is a cool drama with some characters perfectly cast (Jaime, Melisandre, Varys, Davos) but the books have an entire world for you to escape in to. Books are cheaper than DVDs too so there's no excuse.
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
The first three books are probably the best fantasy I've ever read. I've read them 3 times and will probably re-read again when the sixth book is released. The show is a great adaptation - not perfect, but the books aren't perfect either. Books 4 and 5 were a big letdown for me personally. The narrative in them is divided by characters, meaning you'll get some of the characters in one of the books only. The fifth book also ends on a million different cliffhangers and you'll have to wait for a couple of years at least to see their resolution.
I'd say watch the episodes of the show that are available now first and then read books 1-3, because the end of the third book has some sense of closure, in very open-ending kind of way. Wait with books 4 and 5 until the sixth is released.
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
Re: Game of Thrones (book/show) newbie (please no spoilers!)
I'd say read the books first but if you're not much of a reader then go with the show. The show is a better adaptation than I could have ever dreamed of.

From Our Editors
Fat Sat's Bar and Grill conjures memories of the jazz age with its 1920s-style ornamentation and murals of old-time Chicago street scenes, each hand-painted by world-renowned artist Michael Ostaski. The owners named the bar in fond remembrance of their grandfather, Uncle Saturnino Trujillo, who grew up in the era of prohibition and speakeasies. Inside the kitchen, chefs bustle day and night, twirling pastas, hand-cutting rib-eye steaks, and grilling seafood. Bartenders behind three separate bars communicate to one another by angling mirrors as they fill cups to the brim with margaritas and 14 draft beers. Nineteen flat screens beam down upon the bars and tabletops, and a fire pit blazes amid two large outdoor patios. Live bands serenade guests Thursdays through Saturdays, while Friday nights entertain guests with games, trivia, dancing, and karaoke, offering them a welcome reprieve from evenings spent thumb-wrestling their aunts.

The Hardware
The Space Monkey device makes all the magic possible. Just plug it in and install the desktop software or mobile apps.
Since the device is on your local network, you'll experience much faster upload and download speeds than you would with a traditional cloud service — up to 30x faster.1 And because Space Monkey forms a global distributed storage network, you'll be able to access and store data from anywhere with an Internet connection, even if your own device is offline.
Mobile Apps
Mobile apps on iOS and Android both support auto-upload of photos and videos. Simply install, and all your content will get sent to Space Monkey whenever you create it. Automatically.
Mobile apps also support access to all your Space Monkey files, to view natively inside the app, to stream, or to download for use in other apps. You can also do all the things you'd expect to be able to do with your files: share, rename, move, delete — right from inside the app.
Space Monkey gives you enough space for hundreds of thousands of photos and tens of thousands of HD video clips — enough to store many years of memories created on your mobile device (along with all your other documents, music, and files).
Desktop Clients
Space Monkey Desktop clients make accessing 1TB of storage from any computer a snap. Because Space Monkey integrates deeply with your operating system, files that exist on your device or in the Space Monkey network appear as if local — even if they are actually out in the network. This means that unlike competing full-sync cloud services, you don't have to devote as much space as you have stored in the cloud on the hard drive on every computer from which you access your files. Instead, Space Monkey acts like an extra terabyte of space for any computer you install the client on.2
Of course, you can also 'pin' files and folders locally that you want to always be fully synced, for access even when you don't have a working Internet connection.
Desktop clients for Mac OSX, Windows, and Linux are available.3
All data stored to Space Monkey is encrypted at the source with keys only your personal account has access to. Data stored to the network is split up and stored to many distinct locations, making it difficult for the bad guys to get at it even if they did have access to your keys. This is in contrast to the status quo in the cloud today, where everything is stored in highly centralized data centers that are vulnerable to attack and natural disaster.
Web App: Anywhere, Anytime
Finally, when you'd like to access or upload to Space Monkey from a system that may not have a client installed, you can use the Space Monkey Web App from within any recent Internet browser.
The Web App supports native streaming of many media types already, as well as the ability to share, rename, move, delete, upload, and download files. It also provides account management for your personal details, and a mechanism to manage the files you've shared via any of the supported platforms.
Space Monkey makes it possible to access your data from anywhere, on any platform, any time.
Changing how the world stores data, forever
All of this adds up to a fundamentally new way to store, access, and share your data. Space Monkey is re-architecting how the cloud works, to bring you more efficient, faster, cheaper, bigger, more durable, and more sustainable storage. You're not only getting a better online storage service with Space Monkey, you're also helping the planet.
[1] As measured with internal tests at Space Monkey. Your results may vary. [2] Note that Space Monkey desktop clients do require some local cache disk space for staging data to upload and for performance during access. This is configurable by the user, and can be much smaller than the amount needed for full sync (1TB) [3] OSX and Windows fully supported, Linux client currently in limited availability.
When we think about all the photos and videos we've generated over the last few years, we're quick to realize that our digital data is all over the place: in services like Dropbox and iCloud, hard drives and USBs, and even offline. If we could, we'd get our inner hoarder on and store all of it online. But, to store a lot of data, the Cloud isn't cheap. For 1TB of storage, it'll cost you about $100 -- every month, that is. The Space Monkey, by comparison, is a steal.
We love the Space Monkey because it lets us pay for what we really want: storage, and only storage. In the Cloud, you can't purchase 'just storage' – you have to buy the costly fire suppression systems, diesel backup generators, expansive power distribution systems, premium network equipment, biometric access controls, and security patrols that come with keeping your data secure and safe. Because of these operational costs, the only way to make any of this affordable is to pack 1000s of users onto each server and millions of users through each Internet connection. Either through hard limits on storage amount or by throttling your upload/download speeds, this often limits how much you can actually use. In other words, slow speeds at high costs.
Still, inexpensive storage wouldn't be enough for us if we didn't think that our data was secure even in the case of natural disaster. We love that the durable Space Monkey storage network is designed to withstand massive, multiple, concurrent failures, and still keep what we care about most safe and available. Now, the only thing you'll have to worry about with the weather is which beverage you'll choose to keep you warm: hot chocolate, or tea?
