[UPDATE] CFP: Evil Children in Film and Literature
full name / name of organization:
LIT: Literature Interpretation Theory
contact email:
Call for Papers:
LIT: Literature Interpretation Theory solicits papers that examine the role of evil children in film and literature. From the possibly wicked Miles and Flora in The Turn of the Screw to the feral children in Lord of the Flies to the demonic Damien in The Omen, evil children take on various forms. Some are corrupted or possessed by external influences—violent media, abuse, or Satan himself. Others, as William March's novel and film suggest, are simply "bad seeds," inheritors of morally deficient genes and rotten to the core from birth. What function do depictions of wicked offspring serve in texts and on screen? Are they repositories for particular cultural anxieties? Emblems of historical changes to the family unit? Responses to juvenile crimes? Markers of developments in scientific and psychological theories of selfhood? How do evil children demonstrate shifting views of innocence and depravity, redemption and sin? Are they a contemporary phenomenon, a product, perhaps, of Freudian thought? If not, do pre-Freudian evil children differ from their post-Freudian counterparts? LIT welcomes essays that consider the role of evil children in film and literature and that are theoretically grounded but also engaging and accessible. Contributions should be from 5,000-10,000 words in length.
LIT: Literature Interpretation Theory publishes critical essays that employ engaging, coherent theoretical perspectives and provide original, close readings of texts. Because LIT addresses a general literate audience, we encourage essays unburdened by excessive theoretical jargon. We do not restrict the journal's scope to specific periods, genres, or critical paradigms. Submissions must use MLA citation style. Please send one hard copy of your essay, along with a 100 word abstract, to Regina Barreca, Editor, LIT: Literature Interpretation Theory, University of Connecticut, Department of English, 215 Glenbrook Rd., Box 4025, Storrs, CT 06269-4025, USA. Please also email an electronic version of your essay to email@example.com.
Guest Editor: Karen Renner
Deadline for submissions: October 1, 2010
LIT: Literature Interpretation Theory also welcomes submissions for general issues

To the editor:
After reading the Title IX opinion piece entitled "Title IX Distractions Unfair to Students," it seems to me that rather than talk about the issues, Ms. Jarrett just wants to malign Mr. Richards' efforts.
If we stick to the issues then this is simple. Was a facility built at North Oldham for only boys? Yes, the fieldhouse doesn't even have a girls' locker room. Does this mean that there is inequity? It sure seems that way to me.

Cox Business Services Convention Center
Transportation Link
(Spirit of Oklahoma
The official boundary zones of the Oklahoma River are Eastern Avenue (to the east) and Meridian Avenue (to the west).
Dams at Eastern, Western and May Avenues raise the level of the river. Locks at Western and May Avenues will allow boats to navigate the entire 7 mile length of the river project.
Trails running the length of the Oklahoma River on the north and south banks are part of the OKC Trails network and are open for runners, walkers, skaters and bikers.
The project was named 'The Oklahoma River' at the behest of civic leader Ray Ackerman. He originally wanted to rename the North Canadian River all the way across the state.
A City fishing permit and State fishing license are required to fish the Oklahoma River. For safety, anglers must stay at least 100 feet from dams and locks and fishing is by rod and reel only. Consult City and State fishing regulations for more information.
Noodling is prohibited in the Oklahoma River but is allowed from the NW 10 Bridge downstream to the MacArthur bridge.
The Oklahoma River is ideal for man-powered boats such as rowing sculls, kayaks and canoes. Motorized boats are welcome, but are strictly prohibited from operating at speeds that will create a wake. All boats must have both a City permit and State registration.
The City and Oklahoma City Riverfront Redevelopment Authority are authorized to grant exceptions to the "no wake" rule for special events. Requests must be submitted at least three months in advance of the event.
No boats of any kind are allowed in wetlands ponds.
Waterskiing, parasailing, paraskiing, swimming, sailboarding and windsurfing are not allowed.
Public boat ramps are available at SW 15 and Portland and in Regatta Park (just south of Reno and west of the Byers Avenue Bridge and at the Exchange Avenue Bridge).
The Western and May Avenue dams include locks. The locks will not be open to the general public on a daily basis but plans are under review to allow boaters to traverse them on special occasions. The primary purpose of the locks is for use by Oklahoma River Cruises.
A summary of rules governing the river and surrounding trails is here.

Lubbock, TX (Sports Network) - Trevor Lacey paced the Crimson Tide with 21
points to lift Alabama to a 66-62 decision over the Texas Tech Red Raiders in
a non-conference bout at United Spirit Arena.
Trevor Releford tallied 17 points thanks to an 11-of-14 performance at the
charity stripe for Alabama (7-3), which snapped a three-game losing slide with
the win. Moussa Gueye pulled down a team-high total of seven rebounds in just
11 minutes of action.
Jaye Crockett recorded a double-double for the Red Raiders (5-3) with 22
points and 11 rebounds off the bench. Jordan Tolbert chipped in 12 points as
TTU lost for the second time in a row.
The Crimson Tide wasted no time taking control as they built a double-digit
advantage on the scoreboard less than seven minutes after tip-off before
taking a 43-27 lead into halftime. Alabama knocked down 53.8 percent of its
field goal attempts including 5-of-9 from three-point range in the first
half. TTU converted 35.7 percent of its shots from the floor and just 1-of-9
tries from distance in the opening 20 minutes.
The Red Raiders stepped it up on the defensive end after the break and held
the visitors to just five points over a span of 12:25 in the second half. The
strong effort allowed TTU to narrow the deficit to just two points with just
over a minute remaining, but Levi Randolph hit a clutch jumper with 36 seconds
showing on the clock to make it a two possession game. Alabama saw its big
lead evaporate after going 0-of-5 from beyond the arc in the second period.
The Crimson Tide managed to pick up the victory despite committing 20
turnovers. TTU was unable to take advantage and shot 37.9 percent from the
floor in the game.

Lots of laughter, wild costumes, and of course, the re-telling of the Purim victory tale, are all part of the Purim celebration. The hamantaschen, triangular cookies filled with jam, are always a key component.
And while I've seen these favorite cookies in bakeries at other times of the year, nothing signals Purim more delightfully than the tradition of baking these sweet treats in your own kitchen. Continue reading

I was really interested in LR4 because of some of the new features in the develop mode. Would have helped my workflow a lot.
In short - I would hold off on buying LR4.
Especially if you use Photoshop CS5 to do further editing.
When I try to edit in CS5 it tells me i need new Raw Plug-in 7.0
Which is not available for CS5.
If I ignore the warning and edit in PS any way- CS5 hangs.
I've tried all the "work arounds" short of using the beta of CS6. Most do not work or are unacceptability cumbersome.
Who wants to use a Beta of anything for production work?
Not me. Especially after the latest upgrade to LR4.
LR is suppose to stream line work flow not complicate it. This version is a DOG.
Check out the Photoshop family forums at photoshop.com to get an Idea of all the issues.
Some of which did not exist in the beta version.
On top of all that it's slower than LR3.
Had to go back to LR3 for production work. LR4 is just too unreliable.
My recommendation for now is DO NOT BUY.

Submitted on May 22, 2012 at 10:52 AM
Bluegrass and Barbecue are two things that go well together. On Thursday, June 14 Volunteer State Community College at Livingston will be combining the summer favorites with a practical purpose: to help students get registered for fall classes. The Bluegrass and Barbecue event is a fun way to get ready for the fall semester, and show students what the new and expanded Livingston campus has to offer. Students don't have to register on that day. Registration will be open all summer. However, with increasing enrollment students are urged to register early to make sure they get the classes they want.
New students will need to apply to the college before they can register. That can be done online at www.volstate.edu or in-person at the campus. The Bluegrass and Barbecue Registration Celebration will be held on Thursday, June 14 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on the Livingston campus at 113 Windle Community Road. It is free and open to everyone. Call 931- 823-7065 for more information or toll free at 800-563-8220. Vol State at Livingston offers college classes and degree programs that can be used to enter a particular career field or to transfer to university.

It's no secret that the craft beer movement is burgeoning in Michigan—with Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo taking first and second place respectively in the annual Beer City USA poll last year, it's clear that Michiganders love their craft brews. If you're interested in finding out more about craft brewing in Michigan, check out The Michigan Beer Film. It focuses mainly on Southwest Michigan, following Greenbush Brewing Company as it rapidly expands and crediting Bell's for founding the craft beer scene in Michigan. It takes a brief tour of the U.P. and a stop at Short's Brewing Company, along with a look at a brewing upstart in Detroit. I would have liked to have seen a bit more of brewing around the state, but it is nice to see what's going on in our area of Michigan, and it's particularly good to see an industry that's growing in Michigan. So grab an Oberon and watch The Michigan Beer Film!

If you rebuild it, will they come back?
On day five of single game ticket sales yesterday it was still possible to buy four seats together for Opening Day.
I suspect the Ricketts gang has taken notice of the fact that spit and polished pee troughs are trumped by a 5th place team and 9% unemployment when folks sit down in February to calculate whether or not they can afford $72 bleacher tickets come summertime.
There are other causes for concern as the bean counters contemplate the 2011 schedule and project the team's prospects at the turnstiles.
The two months with the highest number of home games are April and May with 15 and 17, respectively. Not only is the weather at its poorest then, but the early returns on advance ticket sales indicate that fans are taking a wait and see approach on this year's edition rather than banking that Mike Quade's 24-13 audition last year was an accurate forecast of the 2011 winning percentage.
The Yankee series is the only one at home over a weekend in June.
Attendance at the first two exhibition games was spotty. Unseasonable weather may be an early factor there, but even subpar Arizona weather is likely to far surpass whatever awaits in Chicago in April and May before Wrigley has a chance to put her face on.
Has the Cub/Wrigley Field brand peaked? It appears right now that the baseball business headquartered at Clark & Addison is in danger of having its streak of three million-plus attendance seasons snapped at seven.
If that happens will the storm sewers outside the Addison Red Line station be able to handle the flood of scalpers' tears?
Re: If you rebuild it, will they come back?
That's what happens when one of the worst teams in MLB has the most expensive tickets in all of MLB.
Screw the Rickii.
Re: If you rebuild it, will they come back?
Well played Mr. Wellman, well played.
Re: If you rebuild it, will they come back?
There are few feelings that I enjoy more than approaching a pack of scalpers around the bottom of the 2nd of a low-attendance game and demonstrating the power of a buyer's market. If they're going to take their profits during the good years, then I'm going to eat their lunches in, say, 2011.
On that note, more Tuesday games v. Pittsburgh please.
Re: If you rebuild it, will they come back?
I can't speak for everyone, but I bought tickets every year using the waiting room bullshit, but not this year. I think I'd rather have a root canal than sit around for hours watching my browser refresh.
I couldn't help but feel that WrigleyFieldPremiumTickets had first dibs and I was an afterthought, so f**k it. I'll watch them lose a game at Great America Ballpark instead.
Re: If you rebuild it, will they come back?
The only thing that's peaked is greed. You can't raise ticket prices every single year and expect people to keep coming back forever. Not only have they continued to raise ticket prices during losing years, but they're diminishing the traditional "Wrigley experience" by erecting dumbass Toyota signs and assaulting our eardrums with Luna jingles and Miley Cyrus instead of the dulcet tones of Gary Pressey's organ.
As far as I'm concerned, the whole Ricketts clan can get f*cked.
Re: If you rebuild it, will they come back?
And while they keep raising ticket prices and cutting payroll, refusing to put out a halfway decent team, they keep running stupid f-ing ads in the Chicago area about Wrigley Field, and the tradition of Wrigley Field, and come see beautiful Wrigley Field. Not one word that baseball is supposed to be played there. The team itself is taking a backseat under the Ticketts family (to borrow Mike W.'s wonderful saying), and they're insulting actual baseball fans by advertising to the people who only want a nice day in the park.
News flash to Ticketts: the core Cubs fans are Cubs fans. Wrigley is beautiful, but we want a baseball team that can win. The Yankees and Red Sox can charge crazy prices for tickets because they keep putting the money into the roster. If they need help at a position they trade for it or sign a free agent, while the Cubs cry wolf and shop off the scrap heap.
Where's Everybody Goin'?
...nice mouse rollover comment on the picture up top.
Re: If you rebuild it, will they come back?
On that RF bleach picture you are showing a half empty family section.
No one in their right mind would watch bad Cub baseball sober.
Re: If you rebuild it, will they come back?
I stand corrected.

- "The key to Varys is that he's one way in public, when he's working, very fey, giggly, and effete for want of a better word, but there are moments when he drops all that and speaks honestly. That stuff is great to play. When Ned asks Varys who he truly serves, and Varys answers, "The realm," I think that's true. There's a moral code there... He sees in Tyrion someone who plays the game well, and Varys loves playing the game. Ned was too honorable and too good - he disdained the game."
- ―Conleth Hill on playing Varys[1]
Conleth Hill (born 24 November 1964) is a Northern Irish film, stage and television actor. His career has been focused on stage work, where he has been twice nominated for the Tony Award and has won the Laurence Olivier. He recently appeared in the film Whatever Works with Larry David and directed by Woody Allen, and was a regular on the Jennifer Saunders comedy series The Life and Times of Vivienne Vyle.
In Game of Thrones, Hill is playing the role of Varys. He was confirmed in the role on 15 July 2010. He initially appeared as a guest star in the first season and joined the starring cast for the second season. He also voices the character of Varys in the Game of Thrones role-playing video game.

Coming to Mac
< Clubs & Activities | Story List | Convocations >
A good omen
Ligita A. Lutsep
The first day, on my way to Macalester, I found a rabbit foot - a good omen indeed. Who would forget Cynthia Burr's beautiful singing the German Lieder in "Magic" in German Literature class? The distinguished convocation speakers: Dr. Thomas Dooley, Arthur Godfrey, Dr. Edward Teller and numerous others. Dear friends in German classes.
Such a contrast
Florence Kalenius
Coming from a small rural community to living in a large urban area like Saint Paul was such a contrast. Dorm life as a freshman in Bigelow Hall stands out. Having more access to the fine arts was beneficial also. Getting a good education in elementary teaching was most worthwhile.
"Why not!"
Henry Pryor
How did I hear of Mac? I used to ride my bike through the campus every Sunday to get to church. When it came time to select a college, I thought, "Why not!"
I only applied to one college
Cynthia Burr Larson
The person who was most influential to me as a teenager was Russ Wigfield. He was our youth fellowship leader at First Presbyterian in Fargo and I thought he was the worlds best person. I also babysat his sweet kids. When Russ announced that he and his family were moving to St. Paul to be a professor of religion at Macalester College, I was very disappointed that he had to leave us. This Macalester College must be a wonderful place, I thought, if it could call him away from our church community. During my high school senior year I decided that I wanted to go to Macalester. If it was good enough for Russ, it must be a great place. It was the only college to which I applied. To me, it was there or nothing. Fortunately, Macalester took me in and in due course, I was a student in one of Russs classes. The kindly youth leader of years ago had become a polished and admired professor and was certainly no pushover! Thanks, Russ!
Small Town Girl to City Woman
Mary Nussloch Nelson
Coming from a small town in Southern Minnesota, I wanted to experience city life along with obtaining a college education. Both certainly happened in my four years at Macalester. I felt so cosmopolitan riding the city bus down to the St. Paul Auditorium to usher for plays and music events. An urban setting for my social work field placement gave me a perspective that followed me to my first job as a child welfare worker in Northern Wisconsin. Mac was a perfect fit for me!

In the wake of the terrible storms March 2, there are a few guys in our own backyard that everyone needs to know about.
Many of you know Amin Gunzalez and his brothers at the Buckner Marathon.
I started going there regularly about a year ago and I think the world of them. I call him Sunshine and he calls me Moonshine (not real sure about that, but oh well). He always has a smile on his face and most of the time is singing or laughing. "Singing" is a loose term here.

The Case of Mindanao, Philippines (Executive Summary)06/02/2013
Fermin Adriano, Thomas Parks
From The Contested Corners of Asia: Subnational Conflict and International Development Assistance.
The conflict in Mindanao is complex, multilayered and defies simple explanation. The region includes at least six major non-state armed groups, with dozens of militia units. The protracted nature of conflict and instability has led to the emergence of other types of conflict, particularly between local elites competing for power. This report draws on new primary field research on sensitive issues from areas and sources that are often inaccessible to researchers and aid practitioners. The research included extensive efforts to understand the ground-level realities of people living in protracted conflict areas through a household perceptions survey, in-depth case studies at the municipal level, and extensive key informant interviews. The report also utilizes official statistics, violence data, and recent studies of aid and conflict in Mindanao. The research team focused on specific communities rather than specific aid projects, allowing the researchers to look at the experiences, perceptions and behavior of Executive Summary The Case of Mindanao, Philippines individual communities in the conflict area, and gain people's perspectives on a range of aid projects.

People who like the above product liked these, too:
February 27, 2012Great juicer!
"I love this juicer. It is our first, and a great one for a first time user. The only problem is its too small. My husband liked the price and that's why he chose it. But, while we're on a juice fast, its a pain to juice, empty pulp, juice some more, empty pulp then clean it, several times a day.
If we get a larger one, it will definitely be a Breville. I think the compact is good for a single juicer, or maybe a couple. But our family of four is a lot for a small juicer.
February 19, 2012love it!!
"this is my first juicer ever and i gotta say i love it. i watched a documentary about juicing and how its way easier to drink your fruits and vegetables than eat a bowl full of them. i bought my juicer on 2-16-12 and have used it at least twice a day since and its only been a few days. i have people at work asking to make them juice because they come out so good. i love my new juicer and would recommend it to anyone who wants to live a healthier lifestyle. thanks breville!! "
January 26, 2012Great Product
"I purchased my Breville Juicer last year as a Christmas present to myself. This Christmas when my children were home my son-in-laws thought that it was the best thing they had seen in a long time, therefore I plan to order one for each family for Christmas this year."
August 2, 2011Fan Flippin Tastic!
"I did alot of research on juicers before I purchased this one. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about it. It fits right on my counter top, its easy to clean, and it makes delicious juices. It shredded dense vegetables with ease. I absolutely love it and wish that I had purchased it long ago. Money well spent. Thank you Breville for making such an awesome product that does exactly what it says it will do and making it easy for me to incorporate more fruits and veggies into my diet. "
April 15, 2011Excellent so far!
"Researched quite a bit before choosing this juicer. Had my first juice yesterday, then a different mixture today. It is easy to use, solid and the juice taste great! I am really happy with my decision and think it will enhance my nutrition a lot! For the $$$, it is awesome."
February 24, 2011Great Juicer
"This is a very good product! Very easy to clean with provided cleaning tool!
The best juicer you can have for the price.
It is not a large capacity juicer. You will get 3-4 large glasses and then you have to clean the waste. Cleaning is very easy, so it will not be a hassle.
Very nice design. Does not take a lot of space in the kitchen. Attention to detail is excellent. Just look at the power plug.
I did my research before purchasing this juicer. It is the best there is for under $100! "
January 30, 2011Excellent
"This is an excellent first juicer! Clean up is a pain, but then all juicers need cleaning, there is no way around it. However this one is easy to clean. It's extremely easy to use. I've had mine almost a year and I love it. I did crack the top part when I dropped it on the floor but I am still using it with no problem.
I never juiced before this, I have some health problems and wanted to add fresh juice to my diet and all it's made me want to do it upgrade as I love it so much.
I use pulp for pie fillings, salads and cakes, or just eat it... you don't have to lose the fiber of what you juice.
Love that you can buy and replace parts, now just deciding whether to replace the funnel or upgrade to the fountain!!!!!!
December 11, 2010It's a winner for me and for my son with a wired jaw!
"My son was in a car accident two days ago and had to have his jaw wired. My 6 foot four, always-hungry 18 year old son, who only wants pizza and cheeseburgers, liked his first quart of juice I made for him this morning!!! I bought this for my other son, who has Crohn's and has very specific dietary needs. Like most who have reviewed this product, I had tried others and was less than pleased. I have no patience for elaborate set-ups or clean-ups. But this one is pretty darn easy. I was amazed that he drank this down, after turning down a few othe blender shakes I made him. I have a feeling this machine will become my best friend over te next 6 weeks. Anone know how to get more good recipes?"
October 20, 2010This juicer saved my life
"Really, I was sick for a month and with a cough for months. I had no energy, sleeping all the time, my overall health was seriously comprised.
Someone told me about juicing so I started my search for the best without going crazy; a guy who had been through 3 different juicers in the past ten year recommended this one.
Wow, I have had it for years and love it!
Fast, easy to clean, don't know what I would do without it. Whatever was ailing me needed to be juiced out.
Mornings I mix two oranges, an apple and 5 carrots. In the afternoon I do an apple, a beet, again 5 carrots.
Never felt better, all organic, never cleaned the juicer with soap.
Here's to your health!
October 17, 2010Best Juicer
"Best Juicer. Extracts most with of the juice and the juice tastes tastes really good. It has a froth separor but I don't know why anybody wants to separate out froth. I always mix it with the juice and it tastes good. You will easily get addicted to fresh juice after using as it is easy to to juice, easy to clean, easy to maintian."

Jayvon Simson is a character in Grand Theft Auto IV. He was a member of the North Holland Hustlers. He was a small time drug dealer and was therefore wanted by the police. To avoid being arrested by the LCPD, he became a police informant and ratted out his fellow gang members including leader Dwayne Forge. When Dwayne was incarcerated, Jayvon started to date Dwayne's girlfriend, Cherise Glover.
When Dwayne got out of prison, he went to his former apprentice Playboy X, who connected him with Niko Bellic. Dwayne sent Niko to kill Jayvon, who was, at the time, with Cherise at an arcade in Chinatown. Jayvon managed to get on his bike and fled, while being followed by Niko, who eventually killed him and took his money back to Dwayne.
Mission appearances
- Ruff Rider (Killed)
LCPD Database information
Surname: Simson
First Name: Jayvon
Age: 35
Place of Birth: North Holland, Liberty City
Affiliations: Member of the North Holland Hustlers street gang.
Criminal Record:
- 1987 - Possession Controlled Substance: Crack Cocaine
- 1989 - Possession Controlled Substance: Crack Cocaine
- 1990 - Assault On A Police Officer
- 1996 - Tax Evasion
- Small time dealer during the crack boom of the early 90s.
- Avoided arrest by becoming a police informant.
- His testimony was crucial in several high profile convictions including that of Dwayne Forge.
- Should the player chase Jayvon long enough, he will eventually crash his motorcycle; however, instead of fleeing from Niko like other NPCs in the game, he will simply stand there, with an angry look on his face. He will not do anything, even if Niko points his gun at him at close range. He may, however eventually take out a sub machine gun and start shooting.
- Jayvon may look entirely different each time the player does the mission. He may, for example wear a green camouflage sweater, brown cargo pants and black boots, or he may wear a white tank top, black jeans and blue sneakers. This is due to the fact that he uses a random Hillside Posse character model.

The 2015 Wall Street Journal CEO Council annual meeting assembled more than 100 chief executives of the world's largest companies in Washington to address the most pressing business and public policy issues of the day.
The 2015 program focused on the coming leadership change in Washington and how it will affect national and global concerns such as: security; the economic outlook; immigration; education; innovation; and regulation. The CEOs heard from top policy makers and experts in provocative interviews led by the Journal's senior editors. And critically, they proposed their own solutions to some of the greatest challenges facing global enterprise today — an agenda for the next president.

Not sure if this is right or not but I figured since there may be folks who cruise through here to see what's new in the VTT map area I would give them a chance to provide feedback on a map I am making for the lite challenge this month. It's called Cavern Arena. If you are one who keeps up with the challenges around here you have probably already seen it, so no worries.
I figured when the challenge was over I would submit it to the Finished Maps section and it might be missed by those who could use it most. Plus, there are 4 more days before the challenge ends I would be happy to have some feedback as I haven't touched this thing for a couple days now. it's only my second VTT map and I think I'm doing better but ...
Moderators - if this is pointless feel free to delete. I was just thinking about how I can't seem to keep up with everything going on around here and if I was someone looking for a neat VTT I would probably come directly to this thread.
When its over and you look in the mirror, did you do the best that you were capable of? If so, the score does not matter. But if you find that you did your best you were capable of, you will find it to your liking. -John Wooden

Cardiac catheterization (kath-uh-tur-ih-ZAY-shun) is a procedure used to diagnose and treat cardiovascular conditions. During cardiac catheterization, a long thin tube called a catheter is inserted in an artery or vein in your groin, neck or arm and threaded through your blood vessels to your heart. Using this catheter, doctors can then do diagnostic tests as part of a cardiac catheterization. Some heart disease treatments, such as coronary angioplasty, also are done using cardiac catheterization.
Usually, you'll be awake during cardiac catheterization, but given medications to help you relax. Recovery time for a cardiac catheterization is quick, and there's a low risk of complications.
Cardiac catheterization is done to see if you have a heart problem, or as a part of a procedure to correct a heart problem your doctor already knows about.
If you're having cardiac catheterization as a test for heart disease, your doctor can:
Cardiac catheterization is also used as part of some procedures to treat heart disease. These procedures include:
As with most procedures done on your heart and blood vessels, cardiac catheterization has some risks. Major complications are rare, though.
Risks of cardiac catheterization are:
If you are either pregnant or planning to become pregnant, tell your doctor before having cardiac catheterization performed.
Cardiac catheterization is usually performed in the hospital. The test requires some preparations. To prepare for your test:
Once you have checked in for your catheterization, you'll have your blood pressure and pulse checked. You'll be asked to use the toilet to empty your bladder. You'll be asked to remove dentures and may need to remove jewelry, especially necklaces that could interfere with pictures of your heart. You'll wait in a pre-operating room until it's time for your procedure — you can often have someone wait there with you.
Cardiac catheterization is done in a special operating room that has special X-ray and imaging machines that normal operating rooms don't have.
Cardiac catheterization is usually performed while you're awake, but sedated. An IV line will be inserted in your hand or arm, and will be used to give you any additional medications you might need during your procedure. You will also have monitors (electrodes) placed on your chest to check your heartbeat during the test.
Just before the procedure, a nurse or technician may shave the hair from the site where the catheter will be inserted. Before the catheter is inserted in your artery, you'll be given a shot of an anesthetic to numb the area. You may feel a quick, stinging pain before the numbness sets in.
After you feel numb, the catheter will be inserted. A small cut is made, usually in your leg, to access an artery. A plastic sheath will be inserted in the cut to allow your doctor to insert the catheter.
What happens next depends on why you're having a cardiac catheterization. These are some of the common uses for cardiac catheterization:
Although you'll be sedated, you'll be awake during the procedure so that you can follow instructions. Throughout the procedure you may be asked to take deep breaths, hold your breath, cough or place your arms in various positions. Your table may be tilted at times, but you'll have a safety strap on to keep you on the table.
Threading the catheter shouldn't be painful, and you won't feel it moving through your body. Tell your health care team if you have any discomfort.
It usually takes several hours to recover from a cardiac catheterization. After your procedure is finished, you'll be taken to a recovery room while the anesthesia wears off. This usually takes about an hour. The plastic sheath inserted in your groin, neck or arm will be removed soon after the procedure unless you need to continue on blood-thinning medication.
After you leave the recovery room, you'll go to a regular hospital or outpatient room. After your catheter is removed, the technician or nurse who has removed your sheath will apply pressure to the insertion sites. You'll need to lie flat for several hours after the procedure to avoid serious bleeding and to allow the artery to heal.
You'll be able to eat and drink after the procedure. The length of your stay in the hospital will depend on your condition. You may be able to go home the same day as your catheterization, or you may need to stay overnight or longer if you have an additional procedure, such as angioplasty and stent placement.
If you're having cardiac catheterization as a test, your doctor should explain the results to you. If you've had a coronary angiogram, your results could indicate that you need angioplasty or a stent, or a more major open-heart surgery called coronary bypass surgery. In some cases, your angiogram may show that angioplasty would likely be an effective treatment to open a narrowed artery. If your doctor finds this, he or she may perform angioplasty with or without a stent placement right away so that you won't need to have another cardiac catheterization. Your doctor should discuss whether this is a possibility before the procedure begins.
Mayo Clinic was among the first centers in the world to develop and use diagnostic techniques through cardiac catheterization. Doctors outside Mayo Clinic refer thousands of people who have heart disorders to Mayo Clinic's cardiac catheterization laboratories every year.
At Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, doctors trained in treating children who have heart diseases (pediatric cardiologists) perform cardiac catheterization in children. A magnetic navigation system at Mayo Clinic in Minnesota allows doctors to treat complex coronary artery blockages, including cases in which standard technology failed to open a blocked artery in the past.
Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., is ranked among the Best Hospitals for heart and heart surgery by U.S. News & World Report. Mayo Clinic also ranks among the Best Children's Hospitals for heart and heart surgery.
Mayo Clinic works with hundreds of insurance companies and is an in-network provider for millions of people. In most cases, Mayo Clinic doesn't require a physician referral. Some insurers require referrals or may have additional requirements for certain medical care. All appointments are prioritized on the basis of medical need.
Specialists in cardiovascular diseases care for people who have cardiac catheterization at Mayo Clinic in Arizona.

Leedmees Launch Trailer
In Leedmees, the player actually becomes part of the game's level design, moving quickly to prevent the Leedmees from falling great heights, getting burned alive, or being hit by moving objects. Thus the player can position their arms to make bridges across stages, or gather the creatures on to a leg and transfer them to another part of the screen in one graceful move. As the player progresses through Leedmees' 50 danger-laden stages, more will be expected of them, with players moving to save different batches of the creatures as they appear from all over the screen.

Every penny matters for MU
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- In the recesses of my mind, it was my thought some Conference USA school defections to the Big East might not be bad for Marshall athletic director Mike Hamrick and his department.
Let's face it, Hamrick has quite a charge. It's tough enough to raise money and interest situated in the southwest corner of West Virginia. It borders Kentucky and that state's UK and Louisville fans. Above the school you find Ohio State fans, and MU is surrounded by West Virginia University fans.
Also, the Mountain State isn't exactly flush with recruits. That's why it made sense to hire Florida recruiter extraordinaire Doc Holliday to coach the football team.
Of late, though, MU's football program hasn't exactly lit up the night. So, I thought, playing a lesser league schedule and winning more games might not be bad for the department. It might put spark back in the eyes of Herd fans, fannies in seats and money in the athletic department's bank account.
You might have read elsewhere in the Gazette where MU will host East Carolina, Southern Miss, UAB and Texas-San Antonio in football next season and visit Florida Atlantic, Florida International, Middle Tennessee and Tulsa. Holliday's troops should have much success with that.
But a couple of big-picture concerns have popped up.
The first is easy to guess. There are more whispers Tulsa might jump to the Mountain West.
The second concern pertains to the Tulsa rumors or, more specifically, the further weakening of C-USA.
See, there are now reports centering on future college football playoff revenue. As you might expect, the five "power conferences" - the SEC, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12 and ACC - will receive the lion's share of the expected $500 million annual windfall.
The next "gang of five" conferences - Big East, Mountain West, Conference USA, Mid-American and Sun Belt - will split approximately $86 million.
The proposed distribution system is where Hamrick should have concerns.
According to reports, more than half the "gang" pot would be distributed evenly.
The rest - proposed in tiers - is expected to be based on performance. The second tier (have you noticed "tier" is the new athletic buzzword?) will pay out based on a conference's body of work. The third tier will pay a bonus to the league with the highest-ranked team, which is also guaranteed a slot in an "access" bowl. (If ranked in the top four, it can also qualify for the playoffs.)
That could create even more separation between Marshall and schools in the power conferences. It will make it even more difficult for Hamrick to keep up with the Joneses.
Sure, C-USA could jump up from year to year, but it will almost certainly consistently finish behind the Big East and Mountain West. If that's not the case, why would C-USA schools keep jumping to those two leagues?
So, more times than not, C-USA will have to settle for third-place money and stave off the MAC for fourth.
Will there be a huge gap between the playoff money paid to the upper "gang" schools and those within C-USA? Maybe. Maybe not.
But if you're Hamrick, it's tough enough to keep up with the Joneses. Every penny matters.

Two children of the late Robert F. Kennedy spoke in Dallas as a year of observances begins for the 50th anniversary of President John F. Kennedy's assassination.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his sister, Rory, were interviewed Friday night in front of an audience in downtown Dallas.
Robert Kennedy says his father spent a year trying to come to grips with his brother's death after the assassination.
He says his father believed the Warren Commission, which concluded Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone in killing the president, was a "shoddy piece of craftsmanship." Kennedy says evidence is convincing it wasn't a lone gunman.
His uncle was assassinated in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963. Five years later, his father was assassinated in a Los Angeles hotel during his primary victory celebration.

I would but I dont have that game. If I cant test it then I cant fix it. I dont want to post corrupt eboots or some that arn't working.
Just get the programs I said about and you can modify them yourself. Or if they need more files patched then you might have to wait for others to patch it.
I've got a few updates I cant fix as they need other files patched and I cant do them. some PRX/SPRX and SELF files.
If the game is just an eboot that needs to be patched then the above ways will work. Some SELF files can also be patched that way. atm I cant patch PRX/SPRX files.

If you were going to trade places with any female fighter, you probably would choose Ronda Rousey.
Let's just be honest here. Not only is Rousey the current Strikeforce 135-pound women's champ, but she's also an Olympic medalist who's barreling down the path toward fame and fortune, with her winning smile and her flowing blond locks showing up everywhere from TMZ to an opening-bell photo op at the New York Stock Exchange.
You probably would not choose to be Sarah Kaufman, and I don't blame you.
That's not because Kaufman isn't a good fighter (she's an excellent one) or a good person (she's an awesome one). But, if we're looking at the cold hard facts, she's probably never going to get rich at this MMA stuff, and she has about as much chance as gracing the cover of "ESPN the Magazine" as she does of being elected Prime Minister.
She knows it, too. She also knows why Rousey, whom she faces in the main event of Saturday night's "Strikeforce: Rousey vs. Kaufman" event on Showtime (and on Super Channel in Kaufman's home country of Canada), has more money and more fame. She knows that, financially, she could benefit from acting a little more like Rousey – an outspoken figure who conducts herself as if the worst thing someone could think about her is nothing at all – and a little less like, well, herself. But, even knowing this, she's not going to do it. Contrary to what you might think, it's not because she doesn't care about the money.
"I love money," Kaufman told me when I talked to her on Wednesday morning for MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). "And I love getting paid."
Apparently she doesn't love it enough. If she did, she might have done more to sell this fight, to follow the blueprint that was laid out for her by the Rousey-Miesha Tate fight earlier this year. But she hasn't. That's because, as Kaufman put it, she's "a purist."
The thing is, if you want to find the purists in your city, don't bother walking around up by where the big houses are. There aren't a lot of purists on the Forbes lists. Purists are people who define themselves in opposition to something else – who tell you upfront what they aren't willing to do. For Kaufman, that list includes talking trash and chasing fame and stripping down on the cover of magazines. She became a fighter because she liked fighting – not because she wanted to be a celebrity.
In theory, that should be just fine. In practice, this business (maybe even this society) favors the lightning rod ahead of the purist. We have to wait until Saturday to find out whether Rousey is the better fighter, but we already know she's the bigger draw.
And say what you will about Rousey's PR ploys; you have to admit they're effective. She's the reason UFC President Dana White is suddenly more interested in women's MMA. She's also the reason that, in all likelihood, Kaufman will have a much bigger audience for this fight than she did back when she was the Strikeforce champ. Skill sells, but, especially in the women's version of a sport marketed mainly to men, looks and personality are the more reliable moneymakers.
So where does that leave Kaufman? For one, it leaves her in a situation where she has reason to suspect that the people signing her checks might not be all that excited about the prospect of her regaining the title.
"I think it's pretty clear that Zuffa and Dana White especially, they love Ronda," Kaufman said. "She's on the edge. She's not the typical pretty girl because she kind of has a mouth on her and she'll say stuff that's inappropriate. Dana kind of likes that. He likes someone who's really going to make waves, regardless of whether they're good or bad. … It makes Dana's job easier and Zuffa's job easier if she's making people write headlines about her, so of course Dana likes Ronda."
Kaufman, on the other hand? Without her hands wrapped and her hair in braids, it's questionable whether White would even be able to pick her out of a lineup. No matter what she does, she's probably never going to be that superstar fighter. She could throttle Rousey in the first round, and it still wouldn't guarantee her a spot on "Conan." That's just the way it is in women's MMA right now, and Kaufman knows it. That it hasn't changed anything about her approach to this fight or her career in general is, depending on your perspective, either very admirable or very financially unsound. It also might not be a choice because when it comes to certain personality traits, you have to go with whatever you've got. Fortunately, the stuff Kaufman doesn't have might be offset in this fight by the stuff she does. Sounds weird, I know, but allow me to explain.
If you ask Kaufman, she'll tell you that the big mistake Tate made was letting Rousey inside her head. She got mad and she fought mad, Kaufman said, which only made it easier for Rousey to do exactly what she wanted to do, both as a fighter and as a public personality.
"If Miesha hadn't played along with that, Ronda wouldn't be nearly as big as she is now," Kaufman said. "That took two people. Miesha played perfectly into what Ronda was trying to accomplish. [Rousey] got into Miesha's head, and that went a long way toward making her the sensation that she is now."
It also helped that Rousey managed to snag Tate in her signature submission – the armbar. But the fact Tate refused to tap to it in a timely fashion, either due to pride or rage or some combination of the two, only furthered Rousey's fame. The gruesome image of her turning Tate's arm into a twist-tie garnered far more attention than your basic armbar followed by a simple tap or two would have. By refusing to give in, Tate only aided her rival's rise to prominence, according to Kaufman. She also paid a heavy price for the privilege, which is something a thoroughly reasonable Canadian like Kaufman still can't understand.
"I thought it was ridiculous," Kaufman said of that finish. "It's a fight. If you're caught in something, you're caught. Don't let it damage the rest of your career. Miesha can say her arm is fine and healthy, but it's never going to be the same."
Of course, that is the position that a reasonable person takes. That's the viewpoint of someone who can take passion and pride out of the decision-making process and realize that if you're going to lose anyway, you might as well lose in a way that does not mangle your tendons. Tate couldn't reach that conclusion in time, maybe for the same reasons that she couldn't resist taking the bait during the pre-fight war of words.
Kaufman doesn't have that problem. She might not be dripping with charisma, but that same even-keeled level-headedness makes it almost impossible to get inside her head. You aren't going to trash-talk Kaufman into making a mistake because Kaufman doesn't do trash-talk – not even when it might help her career.
Is there room in women's MMA for a fighter like that, especially at the top? It's hard to say. Even the female fighters who aren't crazy about how Rousey got to where she is will admit that they're grateful for anything that brings more attention to the division. By that reasoning, a Kaufman victory might actually be counterproductive. It would take the belt away from the most marketable female fighter since Gina Carano, and replace her with a self-described purist who has little to no interest in all those non-fighting aspects of a fighter's life.
In a way, that almost seems like a bad development for everyone. But then, it doesn't really matter. Promoters and fans and reporters might be swayed by all the stuff that happens before and after, but the fight itself is the realm of the purist. The fight doesn't care who should win or even who deserves to win.
For someone like Kaufman, who has eschewed all the extracurriculars to the detriment of her fame and her wallet, that may be the last great thing about this sport. She probably won't get rich regardless of what happens on Saturday night. But she could still get the win and the belt, for whatever it's worth once it's off Rousey's waist.

Cleveland will be playing the role of Cleveland when "Draft Day" begins filming in earnest on Wednesday.
That's when "Draft Day," the new film directed by Ivan Reitman, starts shooting in and around Greater Cleveland. And a week from Monday, look for cameras to finally start rolling on Marvel Studios' "Captain America: The Winter Soldier."
"In and around Cleveland" means filming in Shaker Heights and Bera -- logically, because Berea is where the Cleveland Browns headquarters is -- and other sites yet to be named. Expect some filming at FirstEnergy Stadium as well, according to the Browns.
Filming for both movies will go through the end of June so be prepared.
There won't be any road closures for "Draft Day" but "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" is another matter, as in that movie, Cleveland is a "stand-in" for Washington, D.C. and will shut down a section of the West Shoreway near Edgewater Park from May 29 through June 14.
That end date is appropriate is because June 14 is a national holiday -- Flag Day. But I digress.
Just so you know, on the day of the NFL Draft, Cleveland Browns general manager Sonny Weaver -- played by Kevin Costner -- has the opportunity to save football in Cleveland when he trades for the number one pick. (Sounds like a winner to me).
He must quickly decide what he's willing to sacrifice in pursuit of perfection as the lines between his personal and professional life become blurred on a life-changing day for a few hundred young men with dreams of playing in the NFL.
In addition to Costner, the movie also stars Jennifer Garner, Ellen Burstyn and Denis Leary. The film will also feature NFL players Demario Davis, James Brewer, Ramses Barden, Zoltan Mesko and Stephen Hill. NFL and ESPN on-air talent Jon Gruden, Mike Mayock, Deion Sanders, Rich Eisen, Mel Kiperand and Chris Berman will also pop up in the "Draft Day."
There already was filming on the actual draft day April 25 at the Tilted Kilt restaurant in downtown Cleveland and Costner was filmed in New York City on that day as well.
"Captain America: The Winter Soldier" stars Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Captain America, and also features Scarlett Johansson, Samuel L. Jackson and Robert Redford.
Robert Redford? For me, someone just said the magic word. Nothing against Captain America, but I'm an Iron Man/Robert Downer Jr. kind of a gal on the big screen and a Batman kind of a gal in real life.
In this Captain America, Rogers battles Bucky Barnes, who has been brainwashed and is now a Russian assassin called the Winter Soldier.
Filming here isn't just because it's being directed by Cleveland natives Joe and Anthony Russo. Both graduated from Benedictine High School -- Joe in '88 and Anthony is '89 -- and both went to Case Western Reserve University.
You see, Ohio beat out other locations thanks to the Ohio Motion Picture Tax Credit.
It reimburses productions for 25 percent of what they spend in the state and 35 percent of wages paid to Ohio residents. See, it really pays to use local talent when filming here.
Sounds like a really good deal all around. And we're talking millions of dollars, about $5 million for "Draft Day" and just over $9 million for "Captain America: The Winter Soldier."
"Draft Day" was originally supposed to be about the Buffalo Bills but Ohio had a better tax break so the Cleveland Browns became the team, stepping up to the plate, so to speak, in a mixed-sports metaphor way.
So get ready for Greater Cleveland to be a star again and let's hope there's a long string of great weather for filming. After all, it's Cleveland -- the Best Location in the Nation.
