Osteoarthritis is a syndrome affecting a variety of patient profiles. A European Society for Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis and the European Union Geriatric Medicine Society working meeting explored the possibility of identifying different patient profiles in osteoarthritis. The risk factors for the development of osteoarthritis include systemic factors (e.g., age, sex, obesity, genetics, race, and bone density) and local biomechanical factors (e.g., obesity, sport, joint injury, and muscle weakness); most also predict disease progression, particularly joint injury, malalignment, and synovitis/effusion. The characterization of patient profiles should help to better orientate research, facilitate trial design, and define which patients are the most likely to benefit from treatment. There are a number of profile candidates. Generalized, polyarticular osteoarthritis and local, monoarticular osteoarthritis appear to be two different profiles; the former is a feature of osteoarthritis comorbid with inflammation or the metabolic syndrome, while the latter is more typical of post-trauma osteoarthritis, especially in cases with severe malalignment. Other biomechanical factors may also define profiles, such as joint malalignment, loss of meniscal function, and ligament injury. Early- and late-stage osteoarthritis appear as separate profiles, notably in terms of treatment response. Finally, there is evidence that there are two separate profiles related to lesions in the subchondral bone, which may determine benefit from bone-active treatments. Decisions on appropriate therapy should be made considering clinical presentation, underlying pathophysiology, and stage of disease. Identification of patient profiles may lead to more personalized healthcare, with more targeted treatment for osteoarthritis. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 33 (10 ULg)

SUMMARY: Aspects of osteoporosis in men, such as screening and identification strategies, definitions of diagnosis and intervention thresholds, and treatment options (both approved and in the pipeline) are discussed. INTRODUCTION: Awareness of osteoporosis in men is improving, although it remains under-diagnosed and under-treated. A European Society for Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis (ESCEO) workshop was convened to discuss osteoporosis in men and to provide a report by a panel of experts (the authors). METHODS: A debate with an expert panel on preselected topics was conducted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Although additional fracture data are needed to endorse the clinical care of osteoporosis in men, consensus views were reached on diagnostic criteria and intervention thresholds. Empirical data in men display similarities with data acquired in women, despite pathophysiological differences, which may not be clinically relevant. Men should receive treatment at a similar 10-year fracture probability as in women. The design of mixed studies may reduce the lag between comparable treatments for osteoporosis in women becoming available in men. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 12 (3 ULg)

In an open-label extension study, BMD increased continuously with strontium ranelate over 10 years in osteoporotic women (P < 0.01). Vertebral and nonvertebral fracture incidence was lower between 5 and 10 years than in a matched placebo group over 5 years (P < 0.05). Strontium ranelate's antifracture efficacy appears to be maintained long term. INTRODUCTION: Strontium ranelate has proven efficacy against vertebral and nonvertebral fractures, including hip, over 5 years in postmenopausal osteoporosis. We explored long-term efficacy and safety of strontium ranelate over 10 years. METHODS: Postmenopausal osteoporotic women participating in the double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 studies SOTI and TROPOS to 5 years were invited to enter a 5-year open-label extension, during which they received strontium ranelate 2 g/day (n = 237, 10-year population). Bone mineral density (BMD) and fracture incidence were recorded, and FRAX(R) scores were calculated. The effect of strontium ranelate on fracture incidence was evaluated by comparison with a FRAX(R)-matched placebo group identified in the TROPOS placebo arm. RESULTS: The patients in the 10-year population had baseline characteristics comparable to those of the total SOTI/TROPOS population. Over 10 years, lumbar BMD increased continuously and significantly (P < 0.01 versus previous year) with 34.5 +/- 20.2% relative change from baseline to 10 years. The incidence of vertebral and nonvertebral fracture with strontium ranelate in the 10-year population in years 6 to 10 was comparable to the incidence between years 0 and 5, but was significantly lower than the incidence observed in the FRAX(R)-matched placebo group over 5 years (P < 0.05); relative risk reductions for vertebral and nonvertebral fractures were 35% and 38%, respectively. Strontium ranelate was safe and well tolerated over 10 years. CONCLUSIONS: Long-term treatment with strontium ranelate is associated with sustained increases in BMD over 10 years, with a good safety profile. Our results also support the maintenance of antifracture efficacy over 10 years with strontium ranelate. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 23 (8 ULg)

BACKGROUND: We studied 265 men (mean age 56.4years; range 18-83years), among patients enrolled in two arms of a double-blind, 1-year study comparing the effects of zoledronic acid (ZOL) with risedronate (RIS) in patients either commencing (prednisolone 7.5mg/day or equivalent) (prevention arm, n=88) or continuing glucocorticoid therapy (treatment arm, n=177). METHODS: Patients received either a single ZOL 5mg infusion or RIS 5mg oral daily at randomization, along with calcium (1000mg) and vitamin D (400-1200IU). Primary endpoint: difference in percentage change from baseline in bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine (LS) at 12months. Secondary endpoints: percentage changes in BMD at total hip (TH) and femoral neck (FN), relative changes in bone turnover markers (beta-CTx and P1NP), and overall safety. FINDINGS: In the treatment subpopulation, ZOL increased LS BMD by 4.7% vs. 3.3% for RIS and at TH the percentage changes were 1.8% vs. 0.2%, respectively. In the prevention subpopulation, bone loss was prevented by both treatments. At LS the percentage changes were 2.5% vs. -0.2% for ZOL vs. RIS and at TH the percentage changes were 1.1% vs. -0.4%, respectively. ZOL significantly increased lumbar spine BMD more than RIS at Month 12 in both the prevention population (p=0.0024) and the treatment subpopulation (p=0.0232) in men. In the treatment subpopulation, ZOL demonstrated a significantly greater reduction in serum beta-CTx and P1NP relative to RIS at all time-points. In the prevention subpopulation, ZOL significantly reduced beta-CTx at all time-points, and P1NP at Month 3 (p=0.0297) only. Both treatments were well tolerated in men, albeit with a higher incidence of influenza-like illness and pyrexia events post-infusion with ZOL. INTERPRETATION: Once-yearly ZOL preserves or increases BMD within 1year to a greater extent than daily RIS in men receiving glucocorticoid therapy. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 29 (3 ULg)

A country-specific FRAX(R) model was developed from the epidemiology of fracture and death in Belgium. Fracture probabilities were identified that corresponded to currently accepted reimbursement thresholds. INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to evaluate a Belgian version of the WHO fracture risk assessment (FRAX(R)) tool to compute 10-year probabilities of osteoporotic fracture in men and women. A particular aim was to determine fracture probabilities that corresponded to the reimbursement policy for the management of osteoporosis in Belgium and the clinical scenarios that gave equivalent fracture probabilities. METHODS: Fracture probabilities were computed from published data on the fracture and death hazards in Belgium. Probabilities took account of age, sex, the presence of clinical risk factors and femoral neck bone mineral density (BMD). Fracture probabilities were determined that were equivalent to intervention (reimbursement) thresholds currently used in Belgium. RESULTS: Fracture probability increased with age, lower BMI, decreasing BMD T-score and all clinical risk factors used alone or combined. The 10-year probabilities of a major osteoporosis-related fracture that corresponded to current reimbursement guidelines ranged from approximately 7.5% at the age of 50 years to 26% at the age of 80 years where a prior fragility fracture was used as an intervention threshold. For women at the threshold of osteoporosis (femoral neck T-score = -2.5 SD), the respective probabilities ranged from 7.4% to 15%. Several combinations of risk-factor profiles were identified that gave similar or higher fracture probabilities than those currently accepted for reimbursement in Belgium. CONCLUSIONS: The FRAX(R) tool has been used to identify possible thresholds for therapeutic intervention in Belgium, based on equivalence of risk with current guidelines. The FRAX(R) model supports a shift from the current DXA-based intervention strategy, towards a strategy based on fracture probability of a major osteoporotic fracture that in turn may improve identification of patients at increased fracture risk. The approach will need to be supported by health economic analyses. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 110 (37 ULg)

Several drugs are available for the management of postmenopausal osteoporosis. This may, in daily practice, confuse the clinician. This manuscript offers an evidence-based update of previous treatment guidelines, with a critical assessment of the currently available efficacy data on all new chemical entities which were granted a marketing authorization. Osteoporosis is widely recognized as a major public health concern. The availability of new therapeutic agents makes clinical decision-making in osteoporosis more complex. Nation-specific guidelines are needed to take into consideration the specificities of each and every health care environment. The present manuscript is the result of a National Consensus, based on a systematic review and a critical appraisal of the currently available literature. It offers an evidence-based update of previous treatment guidelines, with the aim of providing clinicians with an unbiased assessment of osteoporosis treatment effect.

Objective: Our objective was to analyze the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) changes and fracture incidence during 3-yr treatment with strontium ranelate. Patients: Women from the strontium ranelate arm of the Spinal Osteoporosis Therapeutic Intervention study and the TReatment Of Peripheral OSteoporosis study were evaluated. Outcome Measures: The outcome measures included BMD at the lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total proximal femur assessed at baseline and after a follow-up of 1 and 3 yr; semiquantitative visual assessment of vertebral fractures; and nonvertebral fractures based on written documentation. Results: After 3 yr of strontium ranelate treatment, each percentage point increase in femoral neck and total proximal femur BMD was associated with a 3%(95% adjusted confidence interval, 1-5%) and2% (1-4%) reduction in risk of a new vertebral fracture, respectively. The 3- yr changes in femoral neck and total proximal femur BMD explained 76% and 74%, respectively, of the reduction in vertebral fractures observed during the treatment. Three-year changes in spine BMD were not statistically associated with the incidence of new vertebral fracture (P = 0.10). No significant associations were found between 3- yr changes in BMD and incidence of new nonvertebral fractures, but a trend was found for femoral neck BMD (P = 0.09) and for total proximal femur BMD (P = 0.07). An increase in femoral neck BMD after 1 yr was significantly associated with the reduction in incidence of new vertebral fractures observed after 3 yr (P = 0.04). Conclusion: During 3-yr strontium ranelate treatment, an increase in femoral neck BMD was associated with a proportional reduction in vertebral fracture incidence.

Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements from different manufacturers provide different bone mineral density (BMD) values and derived T-scores and Z-scores. These differences result partly from technical differences in the algorithms for the determination of bone mineral content and bone area and partly from the use of different manufacturer-derived reference databases. The present study was to implement a uniforrn expression of BNID in all male patients by using standardized BMD (sBMD) values and referring to a newly established national male reference sample. In 8 bone densitometry centers throughout Belgium 229 young healthy men were measured on Hologic (Bedford, MA) or GE-Lunar (Madison, WI) bone densitometers. Quality control procedures were implemented and site cross-calibration performed using the European Spine Phantom. Absolute BMD values were converted to standardized values by validated formulas (sBMD). Clinically acceptable between-center differences were noted. No discrepancy was observed in terms of mean sBMD and standard deviations at the lumbar spine and proximal femur between the Belgian and the US reference populations. Region-specific sBMD thresholds for the diagnosis of male osteoporosis were calculated. The current data provide a basis to implement a nation-wide, uniform expression of BMD in male patients and allow harmonization of the BMD-based diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis in men.

Recently, selective estrogen receptor modulators have been developed for the management of osteoporosis based on antiosteoclastic properties similar to that of estrogens but with a safety profile including potential benefits on the breast, heart, and cognitive function. Raloxifene, the first selective estrogen receptor modulator to be marketed for the treatment of osteoporosis has shown reduction in spinal fracture risk in patients with low bone mineral density with (48%) or without (35%) prevalent vertebral fracture. Raloxifene also reduces nonvertebral fractures in high risk patients (47%). The decrease in Type I procollagen N-terminal propeptide at 1 year accounts for 28% of the total reduction in vertebral fracture risk. Raloxifene reduced the risk of estrogen receptor-positive invasive breast cancer by 84%. Among subjects with increased cardiovascular risk at baseline, those assigned to raloxifene had a 40% decrease in the risk of cardiovascular events compared with placebo. The definite anti-fracture efficacy of raloxifene at the spine, its plausible effect on non-spine fracture in high-risk patients and its beneficial effect on breast and heart make this compound an interesting approach for women presenting with osteoporosis.

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are frequently prescribed for various inflammatory and/or life-threatening conditions concerning many systems in the body. However, they can provoke many aftereffects, of which osteoporosis (OP) is one of the most crippling complications, with its host of fractures. The dramatic increase in bone fragility is mainly attributable to the GC-induced rapid bone loss in all skeletal compartments. We have reviewed the meta-analyses and randomized controlled studies reporting medical therapeutic interventions currently registered in Belgium for the management of GC-OP comparatively with a placebo. Based on this research, an expert meeting developed a consensus on the prevention and therapy of GC-OP. The pathophysiology of GC-OP is complex. Several factors, acting separately or synergistically, have been described. Their great number could help to understand the rapidity of bone loss and of bone fragility occurrence, indicating that a rapid therapeutic intervention should be implemented to avoid complications. All patients on GCs are threatened with OP, so the prevention and/or therapy of GC-OP should be considered not only for postmenopausal females, but also for osteopenic premenopausal females and for males put on a daily dose of at least 7.5 mg equivalent prednisolone that is expected to last at least 3 months. Non-pharmacological interventions, such as exercise and avoidance of tobacco and alcohol, should be recommended, even if their role is not definitely settled in GC-OP prevention. Supplemental calcium and vitamin D should be considered as the first-line therapy because of the decrease in intestinal calcium absorption provoked by GCs. They also could be considered either as isolated therapy in patients taking less than 7.5 mg prednisolone daily and/or for a predicted period shorter than 3 months or as adjuvant therapy to other more potent drugs. Hormone replacement therapy could be considered in young postmenopausal females on GC, such as in postmenopausal OP, or in men with low androgen levels. Calcitonin appears to have a protective effect on trabecular bone in GC-OP, just as in postmenopausal OP. There is an increasing body of evidence supporting the antifracture efficacy of bisphosphonates, notably alendronate and risedronate. Preventative and curative therapy of GC-OP should be maintained as long as the patient is on GC treatment and could be stopped after weaning from GC, because there is more than circumstantial evidence of some recovery of BMD when GCs are stopped. There is no indication in GC-OP for any combination of two antiresorptive agents (except for calcium and vitamin D) or for an antiresorptive and an anabolic agent. There is indeed no proof that the increased costs of combined treatments will translate into increased therapeutic efficacy. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 28 (1 ULg)

Where to even begun? I have been in therapy the better part of my adult life. This wouldn't be true if I had met Mardie before, years ago. She is the best therapist hands down. So comfortable to be around. Calm, zen, clean office space out of pottery barn or pier 1. Always ends up giving me extra time because I am usually her last person on Wednesdays. She has helped me to think rational like and not to be irrational. Love her.
I began seeing her in October and I have noticed a big improvement in my life outlook and in how I get along better with my family and my colleagues. I didn't know how to handle all the stress in my life and she has been helping me a lot. When I was younger I saw a therapist and Mardie is very different and has a unique take on therapy. I recommend her. I also love that she has weekend and night appointments for working people,.
So happy to finally have met the kind if therapist I was looking for for years. Mardie is a rare find and I found her thru a friend who had a teenage son who also loved her. She's super helpful and caring.
I have ben working with Dr. Mardie Sheiken for 3 months and I already feel like a a new person. I am more self confident and I feel that life is not as bad as I used to see it. She has opened my eyes to a better way of thinking and a different outlook on life. I like that she shares information about herself. My last therapist never really "talked" to me, more listened and "at" me and I could tell when she was displeased. Dr. Mardie is a real person and truly cares. Go to her! Just don't take my Tues evening spot! :)
I began seeing Dr. Mardie Sheiken in April 2013. She has helped me work through feelings of low self-esteem and she has helped me to make better life choices. When she says her approach is "solution based' she really means it. She works hard with me to make sure we have goals and that we stay focused because I tend to ramble and wander with my thoughts. I am 51 and have seen 3 therapists in my life before her, 1 male and 2 female. I feel they wasted my time! I am well on my way to better emotional health thanks to her. I don't usually write feedback surveys but I am in a really good place now and needed all to know! (even though its anonymous.
Dr. Mardie performed a psychological test battery on my daughter and in addition she helped us negotiate the NYC department of education to make sure her needs were met the right way. This was in March 2013. I was so impressed when Dr. Mardie e-mailed me to see that all was well with my daughter's education last week! She sure goes above and beyond.
Dr. Mardie has been a tremendous help to my very stressful life. She goes above and beyond and is not a traditional therapist... I feel she is very down to earth and I am very comfortable with her. She also works with my psychaitrist to discuss my medicines and side effects. I recommend her.
I recently began to see Dr. Mardie in the summer and I am already feeling like a different person. Her style is so comfortable and I feel a good connection to her. It's been a bit hard to find a regular appointment time that works for both of us because she is in the office only 2 days a week. For working people, like me, I am glad she has Sunday hours. I recommend her.
I am so happy with this therapist. Dr. mardie has taught me better coping skills than I had before. I love the new office space and I feel she really really cares. I had 2 other therapists and none can compare to her compassion!
This woman is so kind-hearted and caring. She has given me great copeing skills. She is always available to talk to even when she is not in her office. I recommend her highly!

Villanova University has a long-standing tradition of celebrating and encouraging sustainiability and nothing says that more than the Main Line college's annual Earth Day Celebration.
The 42nd annual Earth Day Celebration at Villanova begins Wednesday, April 18 with an expert roundtable on the 50th anniversary of Rachel Carson's popular book, "Silent Spring," and continues through the end of the week.
Other events to highlight sustainability include a discussion Thursday, April 19 at 9 a.m. of Tri-State Bird Rescue and Research's role as a wildlife responder to oil spills and the subsequent animal rehabilitation process, with a focus on the BP/Deepwater Horizon crisis that happened in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, and a sustainability fair and farmer's market, which takes place April 19 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The Lower Merion Township Police department announced April 17 that it will conduct impaired driving checkpoints combined with roving patrols for the weekend of April 27, according to a news release.
The release states the checkpoints and patrols initiative is in partnership with a national imparied driving crackdown that features highly visible and intensified enforcement activities using the new tagline "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over."
The sobriety checkpoint is funded by a PennDOT grant and is one of many tools utilized to increase public safety through this kind of awareness and enforcement.
Keeping up-to-date on school district news isn't hard for Lower Merion High School sophomore Robbie Warsaw, who relies heavily on the district's 1-to-1 laptop program.
"I go on Facebook, Twitter and Gmail once a day," the 16-year-old student said. "I personally receive most of my LMSD information from their website" which is the automatic homepage for the 1-to-1 laptops.
These communication pathways are great for involved students like Warshaw, but how is Lower Merion School District staying ahead of the curve and bringing online and social media conversations to other community members?
The long-contested issue of Lower Merion Township Manager Doug Cleland's contract could be resolved as soon as this Wednesday, according to the board's administrative and human resources committee agenda posted Friday.
On April 18, the Lower Merion Board of Commissioners will vote on Cleland's proposed contract, posted in the committee's agenda.
As reported in the Philadelphia Inquirer in March, Cleland, who's worked for the township for 28 years, made about $224,449 last year from a bonus and his base salary of $202,989.
Lower Merion Police are participating in a perscription drug "take-back" day program sponsored by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), according to a press release.
The take-back program, schedule for April 28 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., will take place at the Public Safety Building lcoated at 71 E. Lancaster Avenue in Ardmore.
According to the release, the goal is to give the public an opportunity to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding residents' homes of potentially dangerous, expired unused and/or unwanted prescription drugs.
More than 200 residents from across the region flocked to the Main Line Arts Center Saturday, April 14, decked in their best party and 1930s attire for the center's 75th Soiree and Silent Auction celebration.
The 1930s-themed bash honored the center through its "Out of the Attic: 75 Years of History," and its Executive Director, Judy Herman, who is retiring in August.
"It's so amazing to have so many wonderful friends gather at the art center to celebrate these 25 years I've totally enjoyed," Herman told Neighbors.
If you're a filmgoer for whom "The Hunger Games" isn't deep enough, check out the Hearts and Minds Film Festival this weekend at Villanova University.
Villanova University's Waterhouse Family Institute for the Study of Communications and Society (WFI), established in 2011, has partnered with the Hearts and Minds Film Initiative for the seventh annual film festival on April 13-14 at Villanova University's Connelly Center Cinematic.
Both institutions have the goal of supporting communication and media with the power to enable positive change and address social issues, and it couldn't be more evident than with this two-day festival.

Refurbishment of Roof Terraces at the RIBA Headquarters Building, Portland Place, London
Expressions of Interest are welcome from architects, interior/exterior designers, landscape architects and/or combinations thereof.
The RIBA has three publicly accessible outdoor terraces situated on the first, fourth and sixth floors. These are used for a variety of events and functions including alfresco summer dining, conference spill-out space, canapé receptions, banquets, weddings and parties. The objective is to design and create simple sustainable architectural garden terraces that will compliment and enhance 66 Portland Place. The aspiration is to commission a work of quality and originality that will create a signature project in the context of the fine Grade II* listed 1930's building, designed by George Grey Wornum. This project offers a unique and prestigious opportunity to make a significant and lasting contribution to a high profile, historic, precious, listed building at the very heart of current British Design.
Up to four designers will be short-listed and invited to attend an interview to outline their thinking and how they might approach the commission. A Preliminary Briefing Paper giving further background about the project and selection process is available to download from www.architecture.com/competitions . Alternatively, please contact the RIBA Competitions Office on +44 (0)113 234 1335. The deadline for receipt of Expressions of Interest (RIBA, London) is 5.00pm on Thursday 4 December 2008.

Boat from Jaco to Montezuma
It is quite popular to get to Montezuma by boat from Jaco. This is handy in case you wanted to get to the Guanacasta from the Southern coast. You need to book this in advance, and you can do that in Jaco or Manuel Antonio, or possibly pay the boat drivers. Basically a speed boat picks you up by the beach and takes you for a choppy, approx 2 hour ride in the sea across to Montezuma beach. The ride isn't the most comfortable, but you may get to see some dolphins in play like we did
San Jose to Montezuma
The easiest method of getting to Montezuma from San Jose is via the direct bus from Coco Cola station. Unlike the most of the other buses, you can't pre-buy your tickets. Get there at least 30 minutes prior to departure for a good seat. Buy the ticket from the driver. The fare of CRC includes the boat crossing to Nacoya but make sure you keep your ticket stub to use on the boat. When you get to Puntarenas you have to leave the bus for the crossing. Some of the ferries have air conditioned rooms and a decent snack bar. Rejoin the bus on the Paquerra side for the trip to Cobano. Again, you will need your ticket stub. The road is, contrary to other reports, quite good all the way to Cobano. In Cabano you transfer to a smaller bus. You don't need any ticket stub for the last portion- the system seems to work on trust. The trip from Cabano to Montezuma is short and just as well as its dusty and bumpy.

getting to Montezuma
I definetly drove trhough the wrong way that is trough East-peninsula Nicoya and it took me more then 5 hours to get from Tamarindo to Montezuma.(sta cruz, Nicoya, Lepanto, Pavones, Playa Naranjo, Paquera , Curu, Cobano-Montezuma)The thing is that I wanted to take the shortest way but unfourtunately the only paved way in really good condition is from Tambor to Cobano and again unpaved to Montezuma.
Unpaved from Lepanto up to Paquera.
Somebody recomended me going through Puente La Amistad de Taiwan and then down to Puntarenas and took the ferry to Playa Naranjo/Paquera. And now it looks the best option altough longer in distance, is much more comfortable.
Allow time to take the ferry! depending on the departure hours and the time of the year has different capacities and is quite busy when 'josefinos' (people from the capital travel to the beach)
Water transfers
You can also get to/leave Montezuma by a water launch that goes to and from Jaco which is right across the water from Montezuma. The launches are much quicker but MUCH more expensive. If you are in a rush, want to limit your travelling time, or just want to get out of Montezuma in a different way, take the launch. It costs about $30 or less if you have a group of people and can then often rent the whole launch for about $60 and then share the fare between you.
Most travel agencies in town will offer this transfer which has departures in the early morning and afternoon. The ride takes one hour.
If you need to get to San Jose fast, you can do so in 3 hours (through a travel agency) by taking a water launch to the mainland and then a 2 hour shuttle to the capital- this will go for about $50 US. Very expensive but could be worth it if you are short on time or patience.
Cocozuma can arrange water taxis at 6:30 am daily to Herradura beach near Jaco for $30, water taxi/shuttle combos onward to San Jose or Manuel Antonio for $50.
Regular bus to Montezuma
You can take regular buses to Puntarenas from Nicoya, Jaco, Quepos or San Jose. They run regularly throughout the day and fares are usually under 2000 colones- fairly comfortable but no air conditioning. The bus that goes between Paquera and Montezuma will leave from the ferry terminal but is often VERY crowded and hot on a long, bumpy ride. Might not be the best bet if you have a large backpack and have to stand the entire way. Also make sure you tell the driver that you are going to Montezuma and ask him to let you know when to get off!
Direct bus to and from San Jose
Empresarios Unidos offers "direct" service between San Jose and Montezuma/Mal Pais/Santa Teresa.
It leaves the Coca Cola terminal in San Jose daily at 7:30 am and 3:30 pm. The fare is 5000 colones which is a bit pricey ($10 US) though the bus is airconditioned, comfortable and if ferries are working, you will have the same bus the whole way through (and can keep bags on). The ride can be LONG from 5-7 hours depending on if you make it to ferry on time or not and how many passengers you stop to pick up on the way.
You still take the ferry in Puntarenas and will have to get off the bus during that time; bus fare does not include your ferry fare (though only 710 colones). Once you arrive in Cobano, those continuing on to Montezuma will have to get off and get on a much smaller shuttle that can mann the tiny, wrecked roads to the tiny town. The main bus will continue onto Mal Pais and Santa Teresa.
Roads are bad between Paquera and Cobano so expect a SLOW bumpy ride.
Buses leave Montezuma (again the shuttle will take you up to Cobano) at 4:30am and 2:30pm Monday-Saturday on the main road in front of Chicos. If the bus is on time, you SHOULD catch the 6:30 ferry but if you miss it (which we did) the next ferry is not until 8:30- plan for that possibility (e.g. dont count on catching a flight or another bus based on a regular itinerary). Sundays the bus leaves at 8:30 am.
There is no office in San Jose or Montezuma so just pay the driver when you get on.
Ferry from Puntarenas
Whether you are coming from San Jose, the mainland or elsewhere on the Nicoya peninsula, your best bet to get to Montezuma is to go back through Puntarenas and take the ferry. (though Samara looks VERY close to Santa Teresa, Mal Pais and Montezuma, the roads are almost non existent, there is no public transportation)
The ferry runs several times a day if all is well (we encountered it when only one ferry was running all the routes and thus a ferry only came every 4 hours!) and costs 710 colones for an adult, several thousand for a car. It runs about every 2 hours between 6 am and 6 pm and the ride will take about 1.5 hours in total. On a nice day, you get great views of the peninsula, islands, beaches and the pacific. Lay on the boat and enjoy the sun and grab an ice cream.
A passenger launch also runs the same trip throughout the day. It is less comfortable but a little quicker (no cars) and only costs 350 colones. A good option if the car ferries are not running!
Fly to Tambor
You can also fly to Playa Tambor from San Jose for about 50.00 USD.
This is a great option that saves alot of time, but you have to make sure someone is waiting for you at the other end or that you can take a cab into Montezuma. The Playa Tambor airport has a very small private runway that was built at the same time as the Barcelo Playa Tambor Hotel, to suite it's visitors.
It has very little traffic otherwise.
- Beaches
San Jose to Montezuma
So you want to go straight to Montezuma??
You will catch a BUS or go by car if you have one - from Saj Jose to Puntarenas.
Here you will head straight to the ferry stop and park in a line-up of cars //or leave the bud and go for a beer until the ferry shows up.
The ferry ride lasts about 1.3 hrs and takes you over to Paquera (the southern of the two stops)
and from here you can drive to Montezuma or take another bus.
- Beaches
- Sailing and Boating
- Budget Travel
Best way is to walk!
You can walk everywhere in Montezuma.
Even the places that sound far are really not, or may be too much of a hassle reach by vehicle. the road are not that great so you will be drivinng 2km/hr so I'd advise to walk.
Getting to Montezuma on the Ferry
My friends took a flight to Montezuma from San Jose. I decided to take Interbus to Puntarenas and the ferry from there. It was a lovely ferry ride and i got to see more country-side. Granted, I wasn't in a rush. Take the one to Paquera not Naranjo.
To and from Montezuma
To get to Montezuma by land, take the 1 hour ferry from Puntarenas to Paquera and the 1.5 hour bus (taxi available for more $$) to Cobano and lastly, the 30 minute bus to Montezuma.
Alternatively there is a 1 hour shuttle boat to Jaco - the difference? About US$26! The buses and ferrys are cheap, but they take a while. The boat is quick but costs $30 one way!

"Switek passionately and playfully explores scientists' evolving perception of the wild, wonderful dinosaur world, emphasizing at every turn the dynamic nature of their field despite its now inanimate subjects . . . Switek intersperses his rich, well-researched scientific and historical discussions with personal anecdotes and cultural signposts, weaving together a narrative that reveals the current state of the field as well as some of the wrong turns along the way."

SLUG REPORT > UCSC researchers analyze 40 years of data to go beyond cuteness
In tackling their primary prey, sea otters also tackle global warming. A new study, credited firstly to UC Santa Cruz professors and researchers Christopher Wilmers and James Estes, finds that sea otters have a significant impact on global carbon sequestration. Because the otter's favored snack is the sea urchin—a scavenger known to devastate kelp forests when populations go unchecked—more sea otters translates to more kelp. And because the giant algae is a bit of a photosynthesis machine, that translates to a lot of sequestered carbon.

The Best Skin Care Line To My Very Sensitive Skin
By Young Again!
from Vancouver
I start using this beauty book since Lily was here in May, I love her passion, knowledge and her enthusiasm. Considering my very sensitive skin condition, I was hesitated at first, but I loved her presentation so I took a plunge. Oh boy, I am glad I did. It was a very good price for this 6 products to begin with, but more so, this 6 products, none of them break my very sensitive skin! I love the subtle smell, the luxurious package and texture of the products, and most of all, these products made my skin silky soft, smooth, and age spots completely disappeared, my wrinkles are much less visible and dry skin condition much improved, no break out whatsoever, all that just within 3 months, for real. I am 58 years young, and all my girl friends asked what I am using, I told them to buy Lily's, her products work for the best among all Shopping Channel brands! Girls, try yourself, and you won't be disappointed, Lily is a bio-scientist, and I trust her products and I am very happy!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Never again
By Kim
from Alma, Ontario
Would like to give a zero.Made my face break out very badly.And, to top it off, I was sure I had returned within the 30 days of receiving, but received a letter from TSC stating I was too late, and would I like to pay shipping to have the product returned to me, because they were not refunding me.Uh, NO.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I purchased this kit in November and am enjoying excellent results. I have numerous products of Lily's, and her line is excellent. This discovery book is a terrific way not only to introduce and try Lily's products, but also a GREAT value. As well, this kit is a wonderful travel size for an upcoming holiday. I would highly recommend any of her products!

I had bought Lily's showstopper back in July and was wowed by the products. Did not cause any sensitivity to my skin and did what it said it would. My age marks started to fade within a couple of weeks and my skin felt glorious and the scents of the products is heavenly. So happy that she returned before Christmas, I bought 2 of the storybooks that have lots of products I have not used before and I will keep buying Lily even if I have to pay the full price. Way to go TSC and LILY.

What a Discovery!
By Spitfire
from Hamilton
I was lucky to have bought this the last time Lilly visited. I love the kit. Not only is it a great introduction to the line but it certainly showcases what wonderful results can occur.I use everything as directed after I use the Angelica Root Cleanser. With the daytime routine I include the eye serum and dark circle treatment and last thing at night I use the wonderful Face Energy Oil. This oil is 100% from plant extracts and is heavenly to use and to smell.There is an improvement in the quality of my skin to face and neck. The pores seem to be smaller, the colour appears more even and brighter. There is a noticeable improvement in the softness. I hope that this kit will return soon so that I can reorder.

High Quality Skin Care Kit
By TSC Shopper
from Victoria (BC)
I loved Lily's show presentation and purchased 2 of the Discovery Book Kits, as well Lily's Radiant Trio pack (cleanser, jujube pads and jade facial cream).The order came beautifully packaged with everything intact.Within a few days of use, there was a visible improvement in the color and texture of my skin, and it was so soft to touch. I knew I was going to keep everything I ordered from Lily.I used the first Discovery Kit and the cleanser for 5 months so the products definitely last a long time. - Goji Berry Serum, Reishi Day Cream and Chinese Ginseng Night Cream used together lasted just a bit over 3 months.- Tibetan Snow Lotus Serum (twice daily) and Tibetan Matrixyl 3000 Max Cream (daily) lasted 2 months.The toning complex and cleanser were used twice a day and at the end of 5 months I still have at least 1/3 of the toner (perhaps I wasn't using enough) and I still have 1/4 of the cleanser left to use.I cannot say which product works best, but believe that using the products together in groupings as instructed by Lily works best.The products are all easy and fast to apply, and cost effective as a little goes a long way.My favorite is the Tibetan ...Matrixyl 3000 cream. My skin just seems to drink it up.

So far, so great!
By Hooked on TSC
from Niagara on the Lake
I purchased 2 of these kits before they sold out! Within 2 days my red blotchy cheeks healed. After a few days a 1/2" brownish sun spot disappeared! My skin is very hydrated and feels very soft. I have been using this product over a month now and am anxiously waiting for fine lines to disappear! Fragrance is not an issue for me because it lasts only seconds once applying. I have very sensitive skin too! Love this line mostly because of the fine ingredients used. Thank you!!!
the best
By Munchkin
from Richmond BC
i was an EG girl but after trying Lilys products cant believe the difference in my skin. But I do think you should use her cleanser and then takes all the other products and makes them work better. Certainly hope that TSC keeps this line

wonderful products!
By skin care junkie
from Scarborough
I have ordered this kit 3 times now, I love it especially in the winter months. I have normal/oily combination skin (45yrs.old) and it just gives my skin a boost no other line can do. I would love it if they came up with a lighter lotion line for the summer months.

i will give the products another go....
By WENDY D
from WHITBY
i purchased this kit a few months ago and was so excited when it arrived in the mail. i will say that immediately i was put off by the strong (floral?) scents. it almost triggered a headache... which i'm not prone to normally (however, strong floral perfumes do have the same effect). there are few ingredients in the products that are concerning ie. dimethicone.. which is silicone based = not so good for the skin > that's what gives you that silky texture and temporarily smoothes out the skin's surface. and when i did see the awesome ingredients, they were far down on the list. one thing i do know, is that important ingredients that are to be truly effective, should be high up on the ingredient list... not way down. i will, however, after these concerns give the kit another try after reading all of these rave reviews. hopefully, the strong scent fades... will update later when i've given the products a few weeks.

Edison Township's Asian population suffers from a significant disparity in hepatitis B infections and subsequent disease related complications. Data estimate that five to twelve percent of the Asian population may be chronically infected with hepatitis B, a majority of which is undiagnosed. The Edison Department of Health and Human Services has partnered with Gilead and the American Cancer Society to raise awareness of hepatitis B and increase testing and vaccination rates. Through education and outreach, working closely with the community and care providers, the Edison Department of Health and Human Services hopes to slow the progression of hepatitis B in infected individuals and prevent new infections.

Pretty plant and very easy to pick. Hard to get beans here, because the deer will ignore other varieties and pick these. They love the fact that the beans grow on upright flower stalks and they can walk down the row and pick beans by the mouthful.

Very good snap bean. It is TRUELY easy to pick and the taste is almost as good as the best beans I've tasted. Very sweet even in mild Oregon weather. Amazingly easy to pick because the plant holds the beans up-and-out towards the picker and they come off the plant very "E-Z". Great for those days when you gotta pick beans for 8 hours strait. Should be called "VERY-E-Z-PICK"

Mark Buscovich
Thank you, operator. Good morning, everyone, and welcome to today's conference call to discuss Oiltanking Partners' first quarter 2013 results. On the call with me this morning is: Anne-Marie Ainsworth, President and CEO of the partnership's general partner; Bo McCall, Senior Vice President of Commercial and Business Development; and Ken Owen, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; as well as other members of the management team.
After the market closed yesterday, we issued a press release announcing our financial results, which is available on our website at www.oiltankingpartners.com. You can also access a replay of today's call from the Investor Relations section of the partnership's website or via recorded replay until May 15, 2013. Information on how to access the replay is provided in yesterday's earning release. Information reported on the call speaks only as of today, Thursday, May 9, 2013. And therefore, you're advised that any time-sensitive information may no longer be accurate as of the time of any replay.
Before I turn the call over to Anne-Marie, I would like to remind you that certain statements made by management during the conference call will include the use of statements that are forward-looking in nature. And the statements made during this call that refer to the management's expectation or future predictions are forward-looking statements and reflect management's current expectations, opinions, views or beliefs with respect to future events are based on what we believe are reasonable assumptions. No assurance can be given, however, that these events will occur. And therefore, many factors could cause results to differ from management's expectations. And actual results may differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements.
Material factors that could cause our actual results to differ from our projected results are described in our filings with the SEC. We expressly disclaim any obligations to update or revise any forward-looking statements made during this call, and request that you refer to the forward-looking statements made in our earnings release for additional information. With that, I'll turn the call over to Anne-Marie.
Anne-Marie Ainsworth
Thank you, Mark. Good morning, everyone. We appreciate you joining us on the conference call today. Last quarter, we delivered another record quarter for the partnership, both operationally and financially. The strong results were driven by continued growth in our storage fee revenues and higher throughput volumes of LPG, or liquified petroleum gas, primarily for export.
The partnership also saw record quarter for throughput volumes with approximately 80 million barrels of crude oil, refined products and LPG handled during the first quarter. This increase in throughput volumes is due to the expansion of Enterprise Products Partners' LPG refrigeration facility at our Houston terminal that came online in the first quarter. In Houston, we also brought online 3 tanks with a total storage capacity of 825,000 barrels that is backed by long-term fixed fee contracts. The fourth tank in this 1.1 million barrel expansion project is projected to come online in the second quarter of 2013.
Also in the first quarter, the partnership brought online expansions to our current pipeline infrastructure, increasing connectivity to local refiners and pipeline systems. During the first quarter, the partnership's Beaumont terminal also brought online 2 new refined product tanks with a combined storage capacity of 320,000 barrels. We continue to invest in our connectivity and infrastructure, and we are pleased with our first phase of growth. But we believe the lion's share of growth is still ahead of us.
Construction is going well at our Appelt property, on-time and on-budget. The first phase of our Appelt expansion consists of 10 tanks totaling 3.2 million barrels of additional storage capacity, and construction on all tanks has begun. As of today, 6 390,000 barrel storage tanks have complete external shell construction. The external geodesic domes have been raised on 3 of these thanks, and we have successfully hydro-tested the first tank. The 4 remaining 210,000 barrel tanks in the first phase of the Appelt expansion are at varying states of external shell and roof construction, and we continue to project the first tanks to come online in the third quarter of 2013 with the final tanks coming online by the end of this year.
We are also pleased with the progress on the second phase of the Appelt expansion. Environmental permitting and grading for all 11 tanks is complete. The construction for the first 4 tanks has begun with ring walls being poured. These projects are being driven by customer demand for greater storage and handling services in the crude oil, refined petroleum products and LPG value chain. This demand is amplified by our best-in-class dock system, superior connectivity and a track record of exceeding customer expectations.

Employees from the Pick 'n Save on Murdock Avenue present a check to the Oshkosh Area Food Pantry.
For many in our community, the worst of the 2008 recession is over. However, at the Oshkosh Area Community Pantry (OACP), the number of people in crisis continues to grow.
In 2012, OACP provided emergency food assistance on 23,179 occasions. Larger households accounted for a record number of individuals (72,203 people), which is a 13 percent increase over 2011. OACP distributed more than 1.3 million pounds of food and hygiene items this year. Without major supporters such as Roundy's, the need would not be met.
A big "thank you" goes out to Roundy's for their most recent generous donation. OACP is grateful to all our supporters, without whom the needs of countless families could not be met. For more information on how you can volunteer or to donate, please visit oacptoday.org.

ADA Info
Mardi Gras Season has officially begun (yes, there is an official start to the Mardi Gras season)! We love to celebrate holidays here at Northwest, and Mardi Gras is just the reason we need to party hardy. This year we (or rather our talented John has) decorated the bulletin board behind the desk. Fat Tuesday is coming early this year, so make sure you enjoy yourself before the fun is over!
If I said the names, Ramses the Second, Socrates, Cleopatra, Julius Ceasar, and so on, most of you would not only know who they are but be able to write a paragraph about them. After all, you learned about them in school. If I said the name, Chandragupta Maurya, Vardhamana Mahavira, Ashoka, Samudra Gupta, I am guessing that few of you would be able to tell me who they were or much about them.
Northwest Branch Library is pleased to present African American Genealogy 101. Ms. Kimberly M. Gay, BS, MLS from the John B. Coleman Library on the campus of Prairie View A&M University will be teaching on how to begin researching your family's past. This session will be held on February 20th at 3:00pm in the Adult Reading Area. All are welcome to attend. For further information contact Northwest Reference Librarian Gwendolyn McDaniels.
Did you know the library has several book clubs? You can join the Reader's Perspective Book Club if you are interested in current fiction. How about the Hallelujah Book Club for inspirational fiction? We also have the Classic Readers Book Club for those of you who would like to get back to the literary greats. Each book club is held on a Monday at 2:00 pm. Check the library newsletter and online calendar for details.
Losing weight is probably foremost on everyone's mind after the holidays. We at the library can help you with your goals (no, we're not going to be your personal trainers, and don't offer to pay us to be your personal trainers because some of us might be tempted to take you up on that offer). What we do have here are exercise DVDs and books to aid you, as well as cook books to help you make healthy meals. I'll give you a hint: check out nonfiction sections 613 and 641.5. Don't give up this year! You can lose weight.

Cons: No Veg food served inspire of putting a request 2 months in advance. Overall food taste was horrible. The tap was not working in the central 2 toilets in a 16 hour journey flight. Choice of Indian movies was not satisfactory. No benefits of Jet Airways platinum were offered since it was Ethihad code share. Staff was like a dead person walking. They had no expressions

ok, its not a 7d with 600mm f4, but it does a pretty darn good job for what it is! My biggest complaint is the heavy ca (purple fringing) on the high contrast scenes. I think i have icontrast on...wonder if that affects the ca? Apologies if these seem overcooked. I just got filterstorm on ipad and im still playing with it.
p.s. Waves sucked today. I'll try to post again when we get some good swell.

This mud like houses have a cute design i should say. they actually seem very fresh inside, very good taking in consideration that outside if very warm. at the moment of the picture there were 47 degrees celcius.
The mosque
This city seems to have a very big mosque for its actual size. In the whole area of the city you'll notice how strange buildings are far away from eachother.
This city is just a stop between the capital NKT and Atar.
The resting areas along the road to Atar
On the road to Atar or NKT depending of your direction you'll find 2 or 3 resting areas like this that will make your stop in this town well worth it. enjoy and relax for a while.
