FRENCH CAMP - The San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office is holding another citizens academy, where it tries to forge stronger ties with the community through a 12-week course.
Participants attend three-hour sessions on successive Wednesday evenings and learn about various facets of the department. Deputies and other department personnel teach the lessons, and participants learn about history, internal affairs, community-oriented policing, narcotics, canine units and others.
A tour of the jail and an optional ride-along also are part of the curriculum.
To qualify, applicants must be at least 21 years old and have no misdemeanor arrests within one year of application. (Prior arrests might be considered in the screening process.) They must work or live in San Joaquin County. A brief background check will be conducted on every applicant, and applicants must maintain good citizenship through the 12-week program.
Academy size is limited, and there is a fee of $40, which covers T-shirts and course supplies.
The first class is scheduled for 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Sept. 10 at the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office facility at 7000 Michael Canlis Blvd., French Camp. The class will graduate on Nov. 12.
Applications are available at sjsheriff.org under "Community Policing" or by calling Deputy Les Garcia at (209) 468-4414.
Applications are due by Aug. 15.

How many calories are in it. I love it too.
(9 transfat)? should that be .9? or 0? Where are they getting transfat from? There's none in milk.
9 transfat?? IS that even possible…Please explain.
Marie and Greg, you are SO RIGHT. I had 9 g transfat – it is POINT NINE… as in .9 grams. I fixed it in the post – thank you so much!
interested in nutritional guide for iced coffee mocha flavor
Does your 7-11 use the Javo Beverage Iced Coffee machine? I hear that all the coffes and Lattes are sweetened except for the Columbian Iced Coffee. Do you know how many calories are in the hazelnut? i tired emailing Javo but haven't heard back.
I love 7-11 Iced Coffee. Thanks for the nutritional info. Just wondering about it myself.
really? is that all? they're so rich and sinful tasting… i was expecting a lot more calories…
Thanks for the helpful info!
Everyone be careful. The medium size is 16 oz, and the large is 24 oz. The nutritional info listed is for 8 oz. So, you have to mutiply by 2 or 3.

Ooh thanks. I wonder how much of the 16 oz. cup is taken up by ice though?
yeah, but where is the trans fat coming from. I don't recall milk having any trans fat. partially hydrogenated oil is not in the ingredients listed. Unless, of course they omitted it from the list.
more importantly how many grams of sugar are in them?

Theresa, I just contacted 7-11 to ask about the sugar content in the iced coffee. If I don't hear via email I will call them. Either way, I will post the answer as soon as I get it. Thanks!
I need to know how many grams of sugar it has.
I'm just a little curious as to how there is "whole milk" listed in the ingredients. When the hazelnut coffee dispenses it is completely black with a little but of sweetness to the taste.
I know 7-11 has the best mocha's around.
7-11 has the BEST mocha's around
What's the amount of caffeine in there? (monitoring my amount;)
any word on how legit the trans fat is? I've been drinking it for a year and now my girlfriend is worried
Does anyone know what the caloric count is with the International Delight Fat Free French Vanilla Sweetener in it, of approximately 3 tblsps? My diet is running amock. Please Help Thanks
How much sugar is in a large cup of your mocha iced coffee. I love it and drink it every day….but I am worried now as I am diabetic. Your nutrition guide does not say how much sugar???…..Thank you
Hazel MacKenzie
Is this caffeinated?
Definitely very sugary taste.. too much.
Dr. Tobacman said that her research has shown that exposure to "carrageenan" causes inflammation and that when we consume processed foods containing it, we ingest enough to cause inflammation in our bodies. She explained that all forms of carrageenan are capable of causing inflammation. This is bad news. We know that chronic inflammation is a root cause of many serious diseases including heart disease, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, and cancer.

Steelworkers Union to Gov: Help Us Stave Off Refinery Shut Down
The union delivered 5,000 petitions to Gov. Neil Abercrombie on Wednesday, asking him to help find a buyer for the Kapolei refinery, according to a union press release.
Tesoro announced in January 2012 that it was exiting the Hawaii market and looking for a buyer for its refinery. But after a year-long search, the company said it was unable to find a suitable buyer.
From the press release:
The activists also requested that the governor appoint a USW representative to his committee that is examining the effect of a Tesoro refinery closure on the Hawaii economy. The USW represents the majority of workers at the refinery.
The USW expects a response from the governor.
"Shutting down the Tesoro Kapolei refinery is going to heavily impact our community," said Local 12-591 unit chair Pat Koge. "Not only will 210 high-paid refinery jobs be lost, but so will 2,000 other jobs that are dependent on the refinery and workers' paychecks." l.
"Turning the refinery into a terminal and importing fuel is likely to bring higher gas prices and possibly supply problems. Why should the fuel be refined overseas when we can do it right here at home and not throw people out of work?" Koge said.

I knew it was time to get off aluminum chlorhydrate...That stuff in most antipersirants is just plain nasty. I'm doing chelation therapy and I take Magnesium Malate(chelates aluminum)but I thought I shouldn't be putting aluminum back into my body via an antiperspirant! I've used many natural deodorants before and none had worked for me, but since a friend bought this roll-on for me to try I thought "what the heck"! I'm hooked on this! It's wonderful...keeps me dry and odor free! I have finally made the switch and really am pleased about the quality of this deodorant!

Pseudoscorpion Mimicking Spider by melvynyeoWatch
©2012-2016 melvynyeo
Found a small jumping spider that mimic Pseudoscorpion. When we first spotted it, we thought it was a Pseudoscorpion until it jumps! Why would a spider mimic a Pseudoscorpion????
A spider pretending to be a pseudoscorpion? That's a pseudo pseudo scorpion! Mimiception!! Sure is funny looking. Pretty cool with the big arms. Nice shot!
Wow i have never seen such a jumping Spider before.
This one looks really cool, especially with those long front legs
This one looks really cool, especially with those long front legs
Idk maybe the spider digged the pseudoscorpion converted pedipalps...
Or its father was a pseudoscorpion.
or it had a teleporter accident with a pseudoscorpion.
So many theories. so little time.

Wow, that's pretty awesome!
Popeye, the spider man
Its abdomen is much skinnier than a pseudoscorpion... perhaps it's a scorpion mimic??
I had NO idea these existed
What will they mimic next? grasshopper mimicking spider?
What will they mimic next? grasshopper mimicking spider?
I found one of these on some timber in my yard last year, I rushed in and grabbed my camera and got a video of it, www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8bVQZ... it was quite interesting watching it run around.
Why indeed.
Has this species been formally identified yet?
Has this species been formally identified yet?
that spider has really buff biceps
Must be a spider, right, because if it's a pseudoscorpion it's missing two legs. Good find!
wow this way to cool
I can't explain that, either. Pseudoscorpions are neither especially armoured nor do they have a special defense or foul taste. But maybe it's a way to get close to prey which would rather flee from a jumping spider rather than a pseudoscorpion.
I saw the title and was like "What? that makes no sense"
Thats actually really cool. I thought it was mimicking an ant at first, then I saw the front legs
Maybe the spider just wanted to fit in with his pseudoscorpion friends
Thats awesome. I wonder why theyd do that. A psuedoscorpion has no benefits so not to catch prey. Maybe to keep things away from it? No clue.
It's a lobster.
Looks like that spider goes to the gym, eh?

Volkswagen Touareg TDI Problems
Tire wear can be problematic, very dependent on driving style. Our technicians recommend regular tire inspection and replacement when necessary.
Condensation may develop in the heater case which can cause a musty odor from the heating, ventilation and AC (HVAC) system. Our technicians tell us a cleaner is available for the heater case. Also, the drain system should be checked for debris.
Brake pads and rotors may wear out prematurely. This can be heavily dependent on driving style. Our technicians recommend regular brake inspections with replacement of pads and rotors as required.

ABSTRACT: The classic Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) has been further developed by Haag-Streit International. The applanation principle has been retained, while the internal force transmission and the pressure gauging have been optimised, the display of results digitised. The authors compared the GAT standard with the new GAT digital. Four fixed tonometer pairs were used. The protocol included: non-contact pachymetry, slit-lamp examination, three consecutive measurements with each tonometer with a 5 min interval in between, check for side effects in 15 min. Three groups (intraocular pressure (IOP) levels) were defined: (1) IOP ≤ 16; (2) IOP>16 and <23; (3) IOP ≥ 23 mm Hg. 125 Patients (250 eyes) were evaluated. IOP (mm Hg), GAT standard versus GAT digital, for the rights eyes was: Group 1: 12.94 ± 0.55 versus 13.11 ± 0.53, p=0.71. Group 2: 18.26 ± 0.59 versus 18.03 ± 0.52, p=0.53; Group 3: 30.28 ± 0.48 versus 30.42 ± 0.41, p=0.97; all right eyes: 17.48 ± 7.48 versus 17.73 ± 7.4, p=0.99. For the left eyes, there was no significant difference, either. The correlation was very good and was not influenced by the IOP level. The Pearson coefficient for the right eye was 0.985, and for the left eye 0.994. In the Bland-Altman analysis, although there were two single readings that differed by as much as 5 mm Hg, GAT digital measures showed almost no skew, and the mean difference was 0.03 ± 1.23 mm Hg (n=250). A multiple regression analysis showed no influence of order of measurement, eyeside or pachymetry. The new GAT digital is as reliable and safe as GAT standard. IOP values correlate well. It offers a digitised display and a wireless transfer of data. The display of values up to the first decimal digit is not necessarily associated with a more precise measurement, but may offer an additional comfort compared with the 2 mm Hg scale of the classic GAT.
Article: Macular Thickness Measurements in Healthy Eyes Using Six Different Optical Coherence Tomography Instruments[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To compare central retinal thickness (CRT) measurements in healthy eyes by different commercially available OCT instruments and to compare the intersession reproducibility of such measurements. Six different OCT instruments (Stratus OCT [Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc. Dublin, CA], SOCT Copernicus [Reichert/Optopol Technology, Inc., Depew, NY], Spectral OCT/SLO [Opko/OTI, Inc., Miami, FL], RTVue-100 [Optovue Corp., Fremont, CA], Spectralis HRA+OCT [Heidelberg Engineering, Inc., Heidelberg, Germany], and Cirrus HD-OCT [Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc.]) were used to assess CRT in both eyes of healthy subjects. Measurements were performed in two different sessions on the same day with each of the systems. From these measurements, the mean CRT was calculated. For the assessment of the intersession reproducibility of the instruments, we calculated the coefficient of the variation of test-retest variation. Twenty healthy subjects were included in the study. Compared with the Stratus OCT all spectral OCT instruments showed significantly higher CRTs. The Spectralis HRA+OCT and Cirrus HD-OCT showed similar CRT values but significantly higher values than did all other instruments. The coefficients of variation for repeated measurements was 3.33% for the Stratus OCT, 0.46% for the Spectralis HRA+OCT, 3.09% for the Cirrus HD-OCT, 2.23% for the OCT/SLO, 2.77% for the RTVue-100 OCT, and for the SOCT 3.5%, respectively. discussion. The six OCT systems provided different results for CRT. The measurements with the Stratus OCT showed the lowest thicknesses, whereas those with the Cirrus HD-OCT and Spectralis HRA+OCT yielded the highest ones. These discrepancies can be explained by the differences in the retinal segmentation algorithms used by the various OCT systems. Whereas the Spectralis HRA+OCT and Cirrus HD-OCT include the RPE layer in the retinal segmentation, the other instruments do not. The data imply that the different OCT systems cannot be used interchangeably for the measurement of macular thickness.
Article: Tappeiner C, Perren B, Iliev ME, et al .Orbital fat atrophy in glaucoma patients treated with topical bimatoprost—can bimatoprost cause enophthalmos[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The aim of this communication is to report enophthalmos as a possible new adverse effect of topical bimatoprost treatment. A retrospective case series of five glaucoma patients under long-term topical bimatoprost treatment was evaluated. Documentation with photo and Hertel exophthalmometry was reviewed. In all five patients a deep lid sulcus, reduced infraocular fat pads and enophthalmos-suspicious Hertel values were found (mean 11.9 mm; SD 2.4). Other aetiologies for enophthalmos were excluded anamnestically and by clinical examination. Bimatoprost may lead to an alteration of the eyelid with deepening of the lid sulcus and may also be responsible for an iatrogenic orbital fat atrophy. A possible mechanism of action might be the induction of apoptosis of orbital fibroblasts with a remodelling of the extracellular matrix. Prospective studies are necessary to confirm this cross-sectional observation.
Article: Simultaneous, Bilateral Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (AION) in Polycythemia Vera: a Case Report[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Polycythemia vera (PV) is a hemopoetic disorder. Apparently, although thrombosis accounts for the majority of morbidity, AION has not been associated with PV so far. PATIENT AND FINDINGS: A 63 y-old woman with PV was hospitalized because of acute liver failure. She also experienced bilateral painless loss of vision. Bilateral, pale optic disc swelling with flame-like hemorrhages, more pronounced in the right eye, constricted visual fields, and relative afferent papillary defect (RAPD) on the right side were present. Computer tomography scan revealed no signs of intraorbital pathology, elevated intracranial pressure or hemorrhages. We interpreted the findings as AION associated with the hyperviscosity syndrome. Liver transplantation had to be carried out in the next days. Three weeks later, vision improved slightly, but RAPD persisted, and disc pallor developed in both eyes. The patient died two months later. Central retinal artery and vein occlusions have been described as complications of Essential thrombocythemia, but not of PV. We observed a rare case of bilateral neuropathy suggestive of AION. This condition has so far not been associated with PV.

ABSTRACT: To compare the performance of dynamic contour tonometry (DCT) and Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) in measuring intraocular pressure in eyes with irregular corneas. GAT and DCT measures were taken in 30 keratoconus and 29 postkeratoplasty eyes of 35 patients after pachymetry and corneal topography. Regression and correlation analyses were performed between both tonometry methods and between tonometry methods and corneal parameters. Bland-Altman plots were constructed. DCT values were significantly higher than GAT values in both study groups: +4.1 +/- 2.3 mm Hg (mean +/- SD) in keratoconus and +3.1 +/- 2.5 mm Hg after keratoplasty. In contrast to DCT, GAT values were significantly higher in postkeratoplasty eyes than in keratoconus. The correlation between the 2 tonometry methods was moderate in keratoconus (Kendall correlation coefficient, tau = 0.34) as well in postkeratoplasty eyes (tau = 0.66). The +/-1.96 SD span of the DCT-GAT differences showed a considerable range: -0.42 to +8.70 mm Hg in keratoconus and -1.87 to +7.98 mm Hg in postkeratoplasty eyes. In the keratoconus group, neither DCT nor GAT correlated significantly with any of the corneal parameters. In the postkeratoplasty group, both DCT and GAT measures showed a moderate positive correlation with corneal steepness, but only DCT had a significant negative correlation with the central corneal thickness (tau = -0.33). DCT measured significantly higher intraocular pressures than GAT in keratoconus and postkeratoplasty eyes. DCT and GAT measures varied considerably, and DCT was not less dependent on biomechanical properties of irregular corneas than GAT.

ABSTRACT: Long-term outcome and complications of diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (DCPC) may be important, since eyes, once treated with DCPC, are less likely to be subjected to other types of interventions in the further follow-up. Retrospective review of 131 eyes of 127 patients treated from 2000 through 2004. Success was defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) at last visit 6-21 mm Hg; hypotony: IOP </=5 mm Hg. Mean follow-up (FU) was 30.1 (SD 16.7) months. Mean number of treatment sessions per eye was 1.54, 89% of the eyes having 1 or 2 sessions; overall re-treatment rate: 38.9%. Mean total laser energy delivered per eye: 133.9 (73.7) J; mean energy per treatment episode: 86.8 (22.0) J. Eyes with 3 or more treatments (11%) had a significantly larger proportion of post-traumatic glaucoma, and patients were significantly younger. All eyes had refractory glaucomas on maximal medication, neovascular glaucoma (NVG) representing the largest subgroup (61%). IOP decreased from 36.9 (10.7) mm Hg pretreatment to 15.3 (10.4) mm Hg at the end of FU. Success was noted in 69.5% (91 eyes), failure (non-response) in 13%. Hypotony occurred in 17.6% eyes, of which 74% had NVG. Hypotony developed after mean 19.3 (11.0) months, range 6 to 36; with 96% of these eyes having received only 1 or 2 treatments; delivered energy did not differ from that in the successful eyes. DCPC is an efficient treatment for refractory glaucoma. Hypotony, the most common complication, may develop as late as 36 months post-treatment. Diagnostic category and age seem to influence the outcome stronger than laser protocol and delivered energy.

ABSTRACT: Several conversion tables and formulas have been suggested to correct applanation intraocular pressure (IOP) for central corneal thickness (CCT). CCT is also thought to represent an independent glaucoma risk factor. In an attempt to integrate IOP and CCT into a unified risk factor and avoid uncertain correction for tonometric inaccuracy, a new pressure-to-cornea index (PCI) is proposed. PCI (IOP/CCT(3)) was defined as the ratio between untreated IOP and CCT(3) in mm (ultrasound pachymetry). PCI distribution in 220 normal controls, 53 patients with normal-tension glaucoma (NTG), 76 with ocular hypertension (OHT), and 89 with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) was investigated. PCI's ability to discriminate between glaucoma (NTG+POAG) and non-glaucoma (controls+OHT) was compared with that of three published formulae for correcting IOP for CCT. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were built. Mean PCI values were: Controls 92.0 (SD 24.8), NTG 129.1 (SD 25.8), OHT 134.0 (SD 26.5), POAG 173.6 (SD 40.9). To minimise IOP bias, eyes within the same 2 mm Hg range between 16 and 29 mm Hg (16-17, 18-19, etc) were separately compared: control and NTG eyes as well as OHT and POAG eyes differed significantly. PCI demonstrated a larger area under the ROC curve (AUC) and significantly higher sensitivity at fixed 80% and 90% specificities compared with each of the correction formulas; optimum PCI cut-off value 133.8. A PCI range of 120-140 is proposed as the upper limit of "normality", 120 being the cut-off value for eyes with untreated pressures <or=21 mm Hg, 140 when untreated pressure >or=22 mm Hg. PCI may reflect individual susceptibility to a given IOP level, and thus represent a glaucoma risk factor. Longitudinal studies are needed to prove its prognostic value.

ABSTRACT: Aims: To characterize genotype, phenotype, and age-related penetrance in a Swiss pedigree with juvenile open-angle glaucoma (JOAG). Methods: In a large Swiss family with history of glaucoma and 82 living members of four generations, we conducted molecular analysis and a detailed phenotype characterization in 52 family members. Mutation analysis was carried out using single-strand conformation polymorphism and DNA sequence analyses of the suspected candidate gene, myocilin (MYOC). Results: We detected a Gly367Arg mutation in the MYOC gene of 13 family members. Nine of them (69.2%) had glaucoma: mean IOP 35.3 mm Hg, range 24-50 mm Hg; mean age at diagnosis 34.9 years, range 28-51 years. Two mutation carriers were glaucoma suspects, one (age 15) was unaffected, and one (age 16) not available for clinical examinations. Age-related glaucoma penetrance was 50% at 30 and 78% at 40. Untreated IOP resulted in rapid disease progression, whereas good IOP control, usually only by means of filtration surgery, could stabilize the disease. None of the wild-type members had glaucoma. Conclusions: This Swiss family is the largest reported Gly367Arg pedigree to date. The exact genotype and phenotype characterization allowed a reliable risk and prognosis assessment and targeted eye-care planning for the family. The study demonstrates the importance of genetic investigations in glaucoma families, carrying the potential of long-term socio-economic benefits.

ABSTRACT: Objectif Étudier l'impact des cicatrices toxoplasmiques sur la fonction visuelle, en termes de réduction de l'acuité visuelle et de déficits du champ visuel. Matériels et Méthodes 61 patients porteurs de cicatrices quiescentes de toxoplasmose oculaire ont été inclus dans cette étude prospective et transversale. Un examen ophtalmologique complet avec rétinophotographies et un champ visuel automatisé (périmètre Octopus, programme G2) ont été réalisés. Les acuités visuelles ont été classées selon l'OMS : normale (≥ 8/10), baisse d'acuité visuelle légère (8/10 à 3/10), baisse d'acuité visuelle modérée (3/10 à 1/20) et baisse d'acuité visuelle sévère (<1/20). Les atteintes du champ visuel ont été classées selon la déviation moyenne (MD) : légères (MD < 4dB), modérées (MD 4 – 12dB) et sévères (MD > 12dB). Résultats 69 yeux ont été analysés. Le champ visuel était perturbé dans 65 yeux (94 %), alors que seulement 28 yeux (41 %) présentaient une baisse d'acuité visuelle (p < 0,001). La concordance de la localisation anatomique des cicatrices rétinochoroïdiennes était meilleure avec le champ visuel (présente dans 70 % des cas) par rapport à l'acuité visuelle (33 %). Conclusion La périmétrie automatisée semble bien mieux refléter les atteintes de la fonction visuelle liées à la toxoplasmose oculaire que la mesure de l'acuité visuelle.

ABSTRACT: To assess functional impairment in terms of visual acuity reduction and visual field defects in inactive ocular toxoplasmosis. 61 patients with known ocular toxoplasmosis in a quiescent state were included in this prospective, cross-sectional study. A complete ophthalmic examination, retinal photodocumentation and standard automated perimetry (Octopus perimeter, program G2) were performed. Visual acuity was classified on the basis of the World Health Organization definition of visual impairment and blindness: normal (> or =20/25), mild (20/25 to 20/60), moderate (20/60 to 20/400) and severe (<20/400). Visual field damage was correspondingly graded as mild (mean defect <4 dB), moderate (mean defect 4-12 dB) or severe (mean defect >12 dB). 8 (13%) patients presented with bilateral ocular toxoplasmosis. Thus, a total of 69 eyes was evaluated. Visual field damage was encountered in 65 (94%) eyes, whereas only 28 (41%) eyes had reduced visual acuity, showing perimetric findings to be more sensitive in detecting chorioretinal damage (p<0.001). Correlation with the clinical localisation of chorioretinal scars was better for visual field (in 70% of the instances) than for visual acuity (33%). Moderate to severe functional impairment was registered in 65.2% for visual field, and in 27.5% for visual acuity. In its quiescent stage, ocular toxoplasmosis was associated with permanent visual field defects in >94% of the eyes studied. Hence, standard automated perimetry may better reflect the functional damage encountered by ocular toxoplasmosis than visual acuity.

ABSTRACT: To describe a case series of neovascular glaucoma (NVG) caused by central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) that was treated with intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB; Avastin). Retrospective interventional case series. Six consecutive patients with NVG and a refractory, symptomatic elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP) and pronounced anterior segment congestion received IVB (1.25 mg/0.05 ml). Diode laser cyclophotocoagulation was carried out only if pressure was controlled insufficiently by topical medication. Follow-up examinations occurred at four to 16 weeks. IVB resulted in a marked regression of anterior segment neovascularization and relief of symptoms within 48 hours. IOP decreased substantially in three eyes; in the other three eyes, adjuvant cyclophotocoagulation was necessary. No side effects were observed. Panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) was performed as soon as feasible, five to 12 weeks after IVB treatment. IVB leads to a rapid regression of iris and angle neovascularization and should be investigated more thoroughly as an adjunct in the management of NVG.
Article: Morphometric assessment of normal, suspect and glaucomatous optic discs with Stratus OCT and HRT II[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: To compare morphometric parameters and diagnostic performance of the new Stratus Optical Coherence Tomograph (OCT) Disc mode and the Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT); to evaluate OCT's accuracy in determining optic nerve head (ONH) borders. Controls and patients with ocular hypertension, glaucoma-like discs, and glaucoma were imaged with OCT Disc mode, HRT II, and colour disc photography (DISC-PHOT). In a separate session, automatically depicted ONH shape and size in OCT were compared with DISC-PHOT, and disc borders adjusted manually where required. In a masked fashion, all print-outs and photographs were studied and discs classified as normal, borderline, and abnormal. The Cohen kappa method was then applied to test for agreement of classification. Bland-Altman analysis was used for comparison of disc measures. In all, 49 eyes were evaluated. Automated disc margin recognition failed in 53%. Misplaced margin points were more frequently found in myopic eyes, but only 31/187 were located in an area of peripapillary atrophy. Agreement of OCT with photography-based diagnosis was excellent in normally looking ONHs, but moderate in discs with large cups, where HRT performed better. OCT values were consistently larger than HRT values for disc and cup area. Compared with HRT, small rim areas and volumes tended to be minimized by OCT, and larger ones to be magnified. Stratus OCT Disc protocol performed overall well in differentiating between normal and glaucomatous ONHs. However, failure of disc border recognition was frequently observed, making manual correction necessary. ONH measures cannot be directly compared between HRT and OCT.
Article: Comparison of rebound tonometry with Goldmann applanation tonometry and correlation with central corneal thickness[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Rebound tonometry (RT) is performed without anaesthesia with a hand held device. The primary aim was to compare RT with Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) and to correlate with central corneal thickness (CCT). The secondary aim was to prove tolerability and practicability of RT under "study conditions" and "routine practice conditions." In group 1 (52 eyes/28 patients), all measurements were taken by the same physician, in the same room and order: non-contact optical pachymetry, RT, slit lamp inspection, GAT. Patients were questioned about discomfort or pain. In group 2 (49 eyes/27 patients), tonometry was performed by three other physicians during routine examinations. RT was well tolerated and safe. Intraocular pressure (IOP) ranged between 6 mm Hg and 48 mm Hg. No different trends were found between the groups. RT tended to give slightly higher readings: n = 101, mean difference 1.0 (SD 2.17) mm Hg; 84.1% of RT readings within plus or minus 3 mm Hg of GAT; 95% confidence interval in the Bland-Altman analysis -3.2 mm Hg to +5.2 mm Hg. Both RT and GAT showed a weak positive correlation with CCT (r2 0.028 and 0.025, respectively). RT can be considered a reliable alternative for clinical screening and in cases where positioning of the head at the slit lamp is impossible or topical preparations are to be avoided.

ABSTRACT: Ibopamine is a non-selective dopamine- and adrenalin-receptor agonist that has been shown to cause pupillary dilation and an increase in aqueous humour secretion. This novel drug can be used as a mydriatic agent, as a provocative test in open-angle glaucoma, and for the treatment of persisting ocular hypotony. This 47-year-old man had a history of uveitis associated with Crohn's disease. Six years after deep sclerectomy for uveitic secondary glaucoma, he developed severe hypotony in his left eye with drop of visual acuity (VA). The hypotony did not respond to topical steroid treatment. 2 % Ibopamine solution was ordered t. i. d. concomitant to 1 % prednisolone acetate. Intraocular pressure (IOP) began to rise after 3 weeks of Ibopamine treatment and returned to normal (12 mmHg) with continuous recovery of VA after 8 weeks. Ibopamine was discontinued at an IOP of 16 mmHg after a course of 12 weeks. IOP and VA remained stable during the 12-month follow-up period. Ibopamine 2 % eye drops in combination with topical steroids are a therapeutic option in uveitis-associated ocular hypotony.
Article: In vivo pachymetry in normal eyes of rats, mice and rabbits with the optical low coherence reflectometer. Vision Res 43(6):723-728[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to determine the central corneal thickness (CCT) in living rats, mice and rabbits using a non-contact, high-speed optical low coherence reflectometer (OLCR) mounted on a regular slit lamp. Both eyes of eight male Wistar rats, eight male balb-c mice and eight male Japanese rabbits were measured. Each eye was measured twice (one measurement consists of 20 scans), the average calculated. Additionally, CCT was measured in rabbits using an ultrasound pachymeter. The mean CCT was: RATS: 159.08 microm (SD+/-14.99 microm), MICE: 106.0 microm (SD+/-3.45 microm) and RABBITS: 356.11 microm (SD+/-14.34 microm). With the use of OLCR we were able to accurately measure the CCT of rats, mice and rabbits in vivo. This technique may prove useful in further refractive, pharmacological and glaucoma studies.

African-American Exploration in West Africa: Four Nineteenth-Century Diaries
Allen, William E., The International Journal of African Historical Studies
African-American Exploration in West Africa: Four Nineteenth-Century Diaries. Edited by James Fairhead, Tim Geysbeek, Svend E. Holsoe and Melissa Leach. Bloomington: Indiana University Press, 2003. Pp. xi, 488; 38 illustrations, 11 maps, notes, index, bibliography. $59.95.
The four diaries in this book fall within the genre of narratives written by travelers who ventured into the African hinterland during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In fact, two of the diaries were stored in the library of the British Royal Geographical Society alongside the works of famous explorers like David Livingstone and Henry Stanley. The men who carried out the "African-American exploration" were James Sims, George Seymour, and Benjamin Anderson. They were Americo-Liberians of the Republic of Liberia, an enclave on the Atlantic coast founded in 1822 by free blacks from the United States. Seymour emigrated to Liberia in 1841 and became a teacher, a farmer, a preacher, and a legislator, among other occupations. Sims and Anderson relocated in 1852. Sims was probably a merchant; he opened a "grocery business" upon arrival in Liberia. Anderson, trained as a mathematician and surveyor, held several positions in the Liberian government, including secretary of the treasury. They traveled into the interior of present-day northwestern Liberia and Guinea between 1858 and 1874. Their ultimate destination was a thriving commercial town in Guinea, called Musadu, which attracted merchants from the savanna in the north and the forest just below; their goal was to encourage the Kpelle, Loma, and Mandingo (or Manding) along the major trade routes to allow the free flow of commerce to the coast.
There are seven chapters in this book. In the first two, the editors provide an overview of Liberian history and a brief description of other explorations into the interior. The four diaries are presented in the next four chapters. Throughout these early chapters, the editors demonstrate their knowledge of the history of the region by detailed references and meticulous annotations. It is in the final chapter, however, that the reader will appreciate the full depth of understanding that the editors bring to bear. Here, they present a careful analysis of the dynamic political, social, and economic activities that unfolded in this commercial corridor.
James Sims wrote the first diary. He began his journey in January 1858 near Monrovia, the Liberian capital, and returned approximately nine months later. George Seymour's expedition was inspired by an earlier journey into the interior. Seymour, a Methodist missionary who may later have joined the Presbyterian church in Liberia, believed that through Christianity and commerce the indigenous people could be encouraged to accept Western values, and eventually become productive Liberians. His idea, "faith and works go hand in hand" (p. 40), is similar to what is generally known as the "Bible and the Plough" philosophy of nineteenth-century abolitionists. …

BELGRADE, Serbia - Serbia's prime minister says a gay pride march scheduled in Belgrade on Saturday has been banned because of threats by right-wing groups against the participants.
Ivica Dacic, who is also the police chief, said Friday that top Serbian security and state officials decided to ban the event because they fear a repeat of the violence in 2010, when extremists attacked a gay pride march in the Serbian capital.
That triggered daylong clashes with the police which left more than 100 people injured.Two other scheduled gay pride marches in 2011 and 2012 had also been banned by authorities.
Allowing the march this year was regarded as a test of Serbia's pledge to respect human rights as it seeks European Union membership.

Haiti Relief Work Taking Toll on Sean Penn
Actor, activist and humanitarian Sean Penn has been on the ground in Haiti for two years helping to assist with recovery efforts. However, an interview with the U.K.'s Telegraph magazine shows that all of Penn's hard work may be getting the best of him.
"You're going up and down hills all day, stressed, eating a lot of c--p. And you tend to drink at night – rum punch – which I'm also trying to curb," he said.

Lose the battle, win the war
Two outcomes, really. Kain Colter and the College Athletes Players Association (CAPA) will probably lose this battle, but they may have already won the war.
Wildcat football players are voting this morning at McGaw Hall to decide whether they will be represented by a union. They won that right when the regional director of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) ruled on March 26 that Northwestern players were employees, not students, and had the right to unionize.
We won't know the official results of this historic vote for quite some time. The NLRB has agreed to review Northwestern's appeal of the regional director's ruling, so the NLRB will impound today's ballots and they won't be counted until that appeal process has concluded. That could take several days or several months. And if the NLRB overturns the original ruling and declares the players to be students, the ballots will be destroyed and the outcome will never be announced.
It has become apparent over the last several weeks, however, that the players are likely to vote against unionization. Head coach Pat Fitzgerald has made it very clear that he wants his players to vote against it. The popular player's coach has made this a choice between him and CAPA for the hearts and minds of his players, and you can guess how that's going to turn out. Team leaders such as Trevor Siemian and Collin Ellis came out and said they are voting no, and even former players like Dan Persa have been outspoken in their opposition to the effort.
Put yourself in the players' shoes: Who would you vote for? And remember that your coach is the guy you've trusted since Day 1, has led you throughout your college career and -- this is important -- will continue to be your leader and de-facto boss while any resulting changes work their way through the courts, NLRB appeals, or any other governing body's process for what could be years.
But regardless of whether or not the players decide to unionize, Colter and CAPA may have already won on a much grander stage. Their movement has created an unprecedented atmosphere for change throughout college sports. All of the media attention they have garnered has put the NCAA on the defensive as it fights for its survival, and it has caused the organization to do some very uncharacteristic things.
After the NCAA national championship game, for example, tournament Most Outstanding Player Shabazz Napier complained that he often goes to bed hungry. Within days the NCAA, which typically moves as swiftly as the tectonic plates, struck as quickly as an earthquake to give all Division I scholarship athletes unlimited meal allowances.
Then yesterday came the landmark announcement that the NCAA was giving more control to the five major conferences. The Division I Board of Directors -- which is composed of university presidents, the very symbols of the status quo -- endorsed a sweeping restructuring process that, they say, will be "more agile to adapt to changes in the division, give student-athletes a greater voice in decision-making and provide more autonomy to the five major conferences."
In effect, they threw up their hands and said, "We can't fix this; you go head and try."
If the restructuring is approved by NCAA members in a vote later this summer, it will give autonomy to the five conferences -- the ACC, Big Ten, Big XII, PAC-12 and SEC -- in the following areas:
Does that list look familiar? That's because it's similar to the issues that Colter and CAPA raised in their initial press conference in Chicago.
In announcing the new NCAA reorganization on BTN yesterday, Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany characterized the NCAA as being "stuck in the mud," a bloated organization of hundreds of members that wasn't nimble enough to keep up with the needs of "the 21st-century student-athlete."
Colter and CAPA gave them the first push they needed to get out of that mud. But for the NCAA, the footing will still be slippery.

text: I want to begin by stating that my experience at the Topaz was truly outstanding. I happen to check in during the "wine hour" and was immediately offered a glass once I was finished at the desk. I went up to my room which was nice a cool (it was 90F outside), then went out for a run. Upon my return an hour later, I was noticeably hot. After 'welcoming' me back to the hotel (which they always did very cheerfully), she offered me a cool towel - which was absolutely fantastic, and there was iced lemon water available. That evening I ate in the hotel restaurant. The food was delicious and the staff, again, was friendly and attentive. At the continental breakfast the next morning, there was plenty of food and coffee for everyone (including M&M's if you were so inclined). I even had a problem printing a document in the business office, and when I asked for help, one of the employees, who was about to leave work, asked how he could help, and printed the document for me. Overall, the attention to detail and genuine attitude everyone had was refreshing and appreciated. The hotel is in a great location near the business district and tourist attractions. I highly recommend it and will absolutely be staying there again.

Definitions for trigonometryˌtrɪg əˈnɒm ɪ tri
This page provides all possible meanings and translations of the word trigonometry
Princeton's WordNet
trigonometry, trig(noun)
the mathematics of triangles and trigonometric functions
The branch of mathematics that deals with the relationships between the sides and the angles of triangles and the calculations based on them, particularly the trigonometric functions.
Origin: From trigonometria, from τρίγωνον + -metria.
Webster Dictionary
that branch of mathematics which treats of the relations of the sides and angles of triangles, which the methods of deducing from certain given parts other required parts, and also of the general relations which exist between the trigonometrical functions of arcs or angles
a treatise in this science
Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies triangles and the relationships between the lengths of their sides and the angles between those sides. Trigonometry defines the trigonometric functions, which describe those relationships and have applicability to cyclical phenomena, such as waves. The field evolved during the third century BC as a branch of geometry used extensively for astronomical studies. It is also the foundation of the practical art of surveying. Trigonometry basics are often taught in school either as a separate course or as part of a precalculus course. The trigonometric functions are pervasive in parts of pure mathematics and applied mathematics such as Fourier analysis and the wave equation, which are in turn essential to many branches of science and technology. Spherical trigonometry studies triangles on spheres, surfaces of constant positive curvature, in elliptic geometry. It is fundamental to astronomy and navigation. Trigonometry on surfaces of negative curvature is part of hyperbolic geometry.

ARDS (cont.)
In this Article
How is ARDS Treated?
Reader Stories
ARDS is treated in a hospital's intensive care unit. Current treatment approaches focus on improving blood oxygen levels and providing supportive care. Doctors also will try to pinpoint and treat the underlying cause of the condition.
Oxygen Therapy
One of the main goals of treating ARDS is to provide oxygen to your lungs and other organs (such as your brain and kidneys). Your organs need oxygen to work properly.
Oxygen usually is given through nasal prongs or a mask that fits over your mouth and nose. However, if your oxygen level doesn't rise or it's still hard for you to breathe, your doctor will give you oxygen through a breathing tube. He or she will insert the flexible tube through your mouth or nose and into your windpipe.
Before inserting the tube, your doctor will squirt or spray a liquid medicine into your throat (and possibly your nose) to make it numb. Your doctor also will give you medicine through an intravenous (IV) line in your bloodstream to make you sleepy and relaxed.
The breathing tube will be connected to a machine that supports breathing (a ventilator). The ventilator will fill your lungs with oxygen-rich air.
Your doctor will adjust the ventilator as needed to help your lungs get the right amount of oxygen. This also will help prevent injury to your lungs from the pressure of the ventilator.
You'll use the breathing tube and ventilator until you can breathe on your own. If you need a ventilator for more than a few days, your doctor may do a tracheotomy (tra-ke-OT-o-me).
This procedure involves making a small cut in your neck to create an opening to the windpipe. The opening is called a tracheostomy (TRA-ke-OS-to-me). Your doctor will place the breathing tube directly into the windpipe. The tube is then connected to the ventilator.
Supportive Care
Supportive care refers to treatments that help relieve symptoms, prevent complications, or improve quality of life. Supportive approaches used to treat ARDS include:
Patient Comments

John H. Miller
unknown - August 20, 2013
John H. Miller, of Minoa, passed away Tuesday, Aug. 20 after a long battle with lung cancer. He and his wife Joan had retired to Minoa several years ago; the home of Rich and Jeri McKenna (daughter and son-in-law) and grandchildren Ainsley and Donovan. Prior to retirement John had worked for over 40 years as an IBEW journeyman wireman. He and Joan traveled extensively as full-time RV'ers as he worked at nuclear power plant outages across the U.S.
John was born and raised in Sycamore, IL; a small town 60 miles west of Chicago. He served in the Army during the Vietnam War as a cryptologist and was awarded a National Defense Service Medal. He loved his country and after retirement was active in politics as a member of the Town of Manlius Democratic Committee. He was also a member of the American Legion Post 787, Cicero, NY.
John loved football, particularly the Green Bay Packers. A special event for him was watching Green Bay play at Lambeau Field on the occasion of his 50th birthday. Other hobbies included travel and horse racing.
He was a loyal IBEW member with hundreds of loving IBEW brothers across the country. Their devotion to their brothers and country cannot be matched. He attended as many IBEW Reunions as possible, the last being the 45th Reunion in June in Columbus, OH. His daughter Susan and grandchildren Skylar and Ethan joined him there to celebrate his 65th birthday. His love for his brothers was exceeded only by his love for his family; Joan, wife of 29 years, daughters Jeri McKenna (Minoa) and Susan Evans (Tuscola, IL) son-in-laws Rich McKenna (Minoa) and Matt Evans (Tuscola), grandchildren Skylar, Ethan and Ivorie (Tuscola) and Ainsley and Donovan (Minoa).
Memorial service celebrating was held at the R.H. Schepp & Son Minoa Chapel, 6530 Schepps Corners Road with Calling hours are followed by the service. A reception at the Fayetteville United Methodist Church was held after the service.
In lieu of flowers donations can be made in John's name to the Zachary & Elizabeth Fisher House, 113 Holland Avenue, Albany, NY 12208 or to the 110BC Sick and Needy, care of David Porter, PO Box 674, Roslyn, WA 98941.

Don't Wait Until Next Year
Does anybody seriously believe the Timberwolves have a chance of vanquishing either Phoenix or San Antonio in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs? Or, put another way, how much of a long shot is it that Minnesota will experience enough postseason success to propel them to a place that is one step behind their appearance in the conference finals a year ago?
The 2004-05 season has been a disaster from the start, a comeuppance for the arrogant and a pathetic pratfall for a theoretical championship contender. However you choose to describe it, nothing that happens in the next two or three weeks is going to change it. You don't flip a switch and transform an aging, chronically mediocre squad into a unit that can topple the team with the best record from the strongest conference over a seven-game series. And even that's assuming the Wolves can somehow overcome their two-and-half game deficit to Denver over the next eleven contests and snag the very last playoff spot.
So spare us the ersatz bravado, the ill-conceived "never say die" attitude that not only means too little and comes too late, but actually hinders the team's ability to avoid similar underachievement next year. How ironic that point guard Sam Cassell should now step to the fore, telling the team's daily beat writers before the trip to New Jersey to play the Nets, "I don't think our guys know how intense this game is going to be. I have 18, 19 hours to let them know how intense this will be." On the court, Sammy has been the same way recently, barking out orders and hoisting up accurate jumpers at an increased pace.
But this is the same guy who was allowed to set his own practice and rehab regimen during the preseason, and seemed to spend as much time bitching about a contract extension as he did strengthening his hip and hammies. The guy who justified his petulant, ineffective play during the first month of the regular season by saying November games didn't matter. The guy who castigated the coaches for not putting him back in the lineup sooner following his hamstring pull, only to reaggravate it, at least twice, once the coaches acceded to his wishes. The guy whose inability to deter dribble-penetration or the pick-and-roll is now widely known and seized upon by opponents around the league. The guy who now proclaims that the cavalry has arrived and he's ready to show his teammates how to bear down and beat a 32-37 club with no inside game and the second-worst shooting percentage in the league.
Ever since Cassell arrived in Minnesota, I have consistently stated that he is by far the club's most effective option at point guard (even with his porous defense) and deserving of the number-two place in the team's pecking order, behind Kevin Garnett. And if the Wolves are to have any hope of catching Denver, Cassell must continue to resurrect memories of last season, and the four-game West Coast road trip in early December, when he ignited the team's offense and shouldered the go-to guy role at crunch time.
But then what? Let's say Sammy reverts to all-star form over the final eleven games, and elevates his play enough to approach parity against either San Antonio's Tony Parker or Phoenix's Steve Nash in the playoffs. Does that merit a two-year contract extension (which is what Cassell is asking for) for a point guard who already has a year left on his current deal, has been waylaid nearly half this season with assorted injuries, and will be 36 next year?
If not, do the Wolves really think that if Cassell keys a late-season spurt that he will be less likely to complain about the lack of an extension next season? Perhaps they think he will improve his value enough for the team to unload him, as they tried so frantically and unsuccessfully to do around the February trading deadline.
It is long past time to stop this charade and look ahead to evaluating and developing next year's ballclub. Wally Szczerbiak has made great strides this season in shoring up his defense and reducing his proclivity for turnovers while fitting himself more seamlessly into a team concept. But there apparently aren't enough touches in the world for Szczerbiak and Cassell to coexist peacefully, creating an on-court tension that is common knowledge around the league though still somehow off-limits for our two local dailies. Szczerbiak is one of the very few non-centers in the league who has converted more than half of his shots over the course of his career. He again ranks among the NBA's most accurate shooters this year. The Wolves have won ten of the 15 games this season when Wally has attempted at least 15 shots. Yet in the three games that have marked Cassell latest return to health, Szczerbiak has 18 shot attempts in 85 minutes of play, as compared to Cassell's 38 attempts in 73 minutes.
Cassell has, at best, one more year in a Wolves uniform; Wally's deal expires in 2009. So does KG's contract. Cassell's heir apparent at the point, Troy Hudson, has five years left after this season; ditto Trenton Hassell. One of the few bright spots throughout this season is how well Szczerbiak and KG have meshed on the court. In recent weeks, we've begun to see T-Hud pass a little more, and Hassell look for his shot more often. Hassell is one of the few Wolves who can get to the basket off the dribble, a crucial virtue in this no-hand check era. This quartet--KG, Wally, Hassell, and Hudson--represent a third of the roster for the next four years. Meanwhile, Cassell and Latrell Sprewell are headed out the door, renowned for the glory they brought to the franchise last year, and for the loudmouthed selfishness and aging skills that helped dash that glory so thoroughly this season. It's not too soon for a changing of the guard.
Hell, you might even put a uniform on Ndudi Ebi and see what he can do.
Hang Time will be on vacation next week. It will return Monday, April 11.
