IT wasn't a work of art, but it was a history-making win for the Columbus North girls.
Jennings County gave the Class 4A No. 1 Bull Dogs all they could handle for the better part of three quarters Thursday night before North pulled away. The 68-38 win gave the Bull Dogs their first undefeated regular season in school history and tied the school-record 23 wins they set last season.
"It's great," said Hanna Ballard, the team's lone senior, who scored 16 points. "We've all worked so hard, and hopefully, we can keep it up and reach more accomplishments that we want to do."
Win No. 23 didn't come as easy as the score would indicate. North led only 39-31 with two minutes left in the third quarter when it went on a 20-0 run to put it away.
"We didn't come out focused," said junior Tayler Goodall, who matched Ballard with 16 points. "We got off to a slow start, but we can't let that affect us. We didn't give up."
Junior Emmy Schabel came off the bench to hit two 3-pointers and score eight of her 11 points during the 20-0 run, while Ballard added six points during the sport.
"We really improved our defense and were working together more, which helped us in the long run to be able to get back on our game," Ballard said. "I think we didn't start off with enough energy, and we brought that in the second half."
North forced 35 Panther turnovers.
"I thought we played well for 2½ quarters, and I don't even know if we played as well as we could," Jennings coach Carrie Manowitz said. "We still had a lot of turnovers in that time period. Obviously, their pressure was good, but I felt like we did a lot of self-destructing in that amount of time, too."
"They sped us up. When we slowed down, we were OK, but we just didn't make good decisions when we broke the press."
The Bull Dogs struggled against Jennings' 3-2 zone in the first half, when they committed 14 of their 18 turnovers.
"We're used to playing man (-to-man) both ways, so it kind of threw us off a little bit," Goodall said. "But we're going to see that a lot in the tournament, so it was a good time to prepare."
"Jennings County did a great job with their defense, so we had a little trouble at first breaking it down," Ballard said. "But once we talked about it at halftime, it helped us a lot to be able to make some moves that we needed to do."
The Panthers (8-12) limited North to five 2-point field goals and four 3-pointers in the first half.
"I felt like we did a pretty decent job with their penetration," Manowitz said. "They're a good team. You stop their penetration, they still have outside shots. I felt we did well keeping them out of the lane, but they hit four 3s that first half, so that definitely hurt us."
Halea Petro led Jennings with 12 points. Emily Ertel added 10 points and five rebounds.
Goodall grabbed six rebounds to lead North to a 24-22 advantage on the boards.
"(Being undefeated is) pretty awesome, but now we just have to take it one game at a time and start out 0-0," Goodall said.

With offshore oil drilling emerging as a hot topic in the U.S. presidential race this fall, one thing that all sides have been able to agree on is that alternative, renewable sources of energy must be found to reduce the country's dependence on fossil fuels. High school students across the country have joined the energy debate through Working Toward Sustainability, a new curriculum on alternative energy developed by EDC's Ford PAS program.
"The scenarios in the curriculum present the type of real-world decisions that have to be made regarding energy, which is why it is so important for kids to learn the pros and cons as well as the scientific concepts behind each different form of energy," says EDC's Ilene Kantrov. The curriculum will be available at no charge later in the fall on the Ford PAS Web site.
Each of the curriculum's four modules focuses on a major scientific concept related to the use and storage of energy. The modules are geared towards ninth graders and can be used as a unit or independently. "We All Run on Energy" introduces the concept of energy and how stored energy is released in the form of fuel. Three additional modules—"Energy from the Sun: Biomass," "Is Hydrogen a Solution?" and "The Nuclear Revolution"—each focus on a particular fuel source.
Each module features hands-on experiments that bring natural phenomena to life for students. "The modules take abstract scientific concepts that are difficult to learn and make them meaningful by putting them in context," says EDC's Rebecca Lewis. For instance, the "Is Hydrogen a Solution?" module discusses chemical reactions and how the energy generated from these reactions can be used to power a car.
No single form of energy is promoted over the others, and it is left to the students to decide whether each method might provide a good solution to meeting different energy needs, says Kantrov. The Ford PAS Web site offers additional resources for students.
Ford PAS is an educational program developed by Ford Motor Company Fund and EDC that integrates academically rigorous, standards-based curriculum with real-world applications. The program is currently being used in 300 sites across 26 states. It engages students in the areas of engineering, business, technology, science, and math, while teaching key skills needed in today's workforce, such as team building, critical thinking, creative problem-solving, and communication.
"Ford is excited to introduce a learning resource that is generating great interest among students and that will have a clear impact on their futures. Working Toward Sustainability is an example of how classrooms can make a real-world connection, in which students offer solutions to the problems we face as a country," says Cheryl Carrier, program director for 21st century education programs at Ford Motor Company Fund.

I am so confused.
We recently had to shut down our salt water tank, and in my inexperience, I cleaned off the live rock pieces, and put them in with my barbs. The hard red algae that was on the live rock was at first dying, but oddly enough, now it's all OVER my non live rock pieces! I am really confused - our tank is not salted, nor is it lit for salt, and the algae is growing? Is this at all normal?
I'm pretty sure there's no way a saltwater algae would continue to grow in a freshwater tank. My guess is that its freshwater algae is gowing on the rocks.
I'd keep an eye on the pH and hardness of the water too as those rocks are likely to be calcareous and couldl raise pH and hardness
That's what I thought, but I'm completely sure the saltwater algae is surviving on the liverock.
Because it's the exact same colony on the same rock that was there in the saltwater....Unless there's some sort of ninja algae that switches places without a shade's difference! :lol:
Hmm, weird. My only other possible expanation is that freshwater algae is feeding on the dead saltwater algae... Other than that I'm stumped :-D
I guess it's not really an issue unless it starts taking over and you don't like the way it looks
:o We has ninja algae? :D I should find a way to market this. :lol:
I recommend you post a thread in the saltwater section, as a marine aquarist may know more about those algae than those of us in freshwater.
i thought live rock was unsuitable for freshwater aquaria? It hold tons of bacteria and organisms for saltwater conditions so dropping it in a freshwater tank would kill all the bacteria, spike your ammonia and nitrate levels and increase the rotting organic matter in the tank creating good conditions for algae, which is probably why the bloom occured.

Microsoft releases R2 Windows Server beta
Microsoft has released a "customer preview program beta" of Windows Server 2003 R2, the forthcoming update to Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1.
This Article Covers
Business applications
Microsoft has released a "customer preview program beta" of Windows Server 2003 R2, the forthcoming update to Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1.
R2 is due to be released by the end of 2005. Microsoft said it will offer improved branch office server systems and better identity and access management. Storage management and application development support has also been improved.
Microsoft has also released Beta 1 of WinFS, the Windows relational file system. Beta 1, which provides support to Windows XP, is available to all Microsoft Developer Network subscribers.
The company said WinFS offers features such as the unified Item Data Model, which releases individual data items from their respective applications (such as contacts, calendar events and RSS feeds) so they can be organised, managed, shared and synchronised directly alongside files via publicly available schemas.
New organisational constructs in WinFS will help users extend their data with additional properties and allow applications to automatically organise their data, said Microsoft.
In addition, WinFS users will be able to build powerful queries that exploit relationships, such as "show me all mail from people I am meeting with this week", Microsoft said.

Bold plan to remove notorious South Downs eyesore
Ambitious plans have been unveiled to redevelop a derelict cement works on the South Downs in Sussex.
The massive quarry near Shoreham closed twenty-five years ago, but remains a blot on the landscape.
Now, a group called the South Down Project wants to build more than 2000 homes and businesses on the site, at a cost of £1.3 billion.
Malcolm Shaw spoke to local businessman Neil Laughton, Ed Carr of the South Down Project, and former cement worker John Richards.
To find out more visit www.southdownproject.com
Future of South Downs National Park under discussion
The future of the South Downs National Park will be discussed by planners today.
Thousands of new homes are proposed. Staff say the priority is to conserve the landscape.
Affordable housing will make up 40% of the homes. The public will be invited to have their say at a consultation due to take place in the Autumn.
South Downs National Park celebrates it's 4th birthday
The UK's newest national park, the South Downs in West Sussex is celebrating it's fourth anniversary today. Special walks will be taking place throughout the region to mark the occasion.
Robert Self, a Society spokesperson, said "For over sixty years, campaigners worked for the South Downs to be recognized as a National Park.
Its outstanding landscape and network of historic pathways finally received the protection they deserved in 2010 and we will be celebrating this 4th anniversary by enjoying the stunning spring scenery on three superb walks".
The National Park was created on 1 April 2010, and the National Park Authority took up its full powers as planning and access authority on 1 April 2011. The Society has praised the National Park Authority for its work, by acting to protect and enhance the precious landscape of the South Downs.
Sheep helping with project on South Downs
Now, here is a fascinating fact - the South Downs are home to one of the most precious habitats on earth. Chalk grassland supports many threatened species, and it's rarer than rainforest.
Now, conservationists are trying to create more chalk grassland, and they've drafted in flocks of sheep to help improve the habitat for wildlife. Malcolm Shaw reports.
The fight is on to stop fracking in the South
Video. It's already prompted protests and petitions and now the first legal blockade is being launched to try to prevent fracking in the heart of the region's countryside.
Although it's been ruled out at Balcombe in Sussex, there are many other potential sites including Hampshire, Dorset, Oxfordshire, the Isle of Wight and Sussex.
But residents living at Fernhurst in the South Downs National Park are directly challenging the government about plans to drill under their homes.
Andrew Pate reports.
Go green when you're in the countryside
Trains and bus operators are meeting with businesses from the New Forest and South Downs National Park to find out how they can persuade more visitors to leave their cars at home.
With fifty three million visits to the two national parks every year, they want more people to try greener forms of transport.
£77m to promote cycling in cities
A big cash injection has been announced to promote cycling throughout our region.
A total of £77m will be divided between chosen areas nationwide, which include Oxford, Cambridge, New Forest and South Downs.
Alongside local contributions, the total new funding for cycling is £148m between now and 2015.
The Government have commitment to encourage changes to the way roads are built and altered.
Patrick McLoughlin, Transport Secretary, said: "We have seen significant growth in the number of cyclists in London over the last few years. But cycling shouldn't be confined to the capital."
New Forest cycling get £3.6m boost
A family cycling scheme in the New Forest National Park has been awarded £3.6m by the government.
The money will help to create more than 30 jobs and boost the local economy.
The New Forest National Park will benefit from a share of the Department for Transport's £17m funding.
The government's money will be matched with £2.2m from the private sector and local authorities.
The proposed projects for the park will promote active family lifestyles, respect the character of the New Forest
The Department for Transport said the New Forest National Park Authority was given funding because its proposal was innovative, creative and achievable by March 2015.
Barry Rickman, leader of New Forest District Council, said: "Cycling already provides support to the New Forest's economy and with it the creation of associated employment. Cycling already provides support to the New Forest's economy and with it the creation of associated employment.
"We are pleased that this economic growth opportunity is recognised within the scheme and that plans are in place throughout the towns and villages that make up the forest's local community."
Oxford and New Forest to get funding
The initiative includes plans to make roads safer for those on two wheels and means a number of English cities will get Government money for cycling schemes. A total of £77 million will be divided between Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham, Newcastle, Bristol, Cambridge, Oxford and Norwich.
Also, the New Forest, Peak District, South Downs and Dartmoor areas will each share a slice of £17 million funding for national parks. With local contributions, the total new funding for cycling is £148 million between now and 2015.
The announcement includes a commitment from the Government to cut red tape that can stifle cycle-friendly road design and to encourage changes to the way roads are built or altered.
National parks 'contribute billions to the economy'
Activities within England's national parks contribute billions of pounds to the economy, a report has found.
National Parks England said the ten sites generate between £4.1 billion and £6.3 billion for the economy, which is the equivalent to the UK aerospace industry.
It added that more than half of the English population lives within an hour's drive of a national park, receiving about 90 million visitors a year.
But there are a number of challenges facing the national parks, including the economic downturn which has hit the tourism industry, a high reliance on industries such as farming which can struggle to be profitable and a lack of broadband, mobile phone reception and affordable housing.
Environment minister Richard Benyon said: "Our national parks are the most treasured places in the country. More than 90 million people visit them each year, helping to boost economic growth in rural areas.
"This report highlights the value of these areas in promoting tourism and contributing to the UK economy."

He caught a league-leading 15 touchdown passes in 2010, when he earned his first trip to the Pro Bowl, and a career-high 81 passes the following year. He was banged up most of last season and struggled in part because of a shaky quarterback situation, but still did enough to warrant a five-year, $56 million deal from the Chiefs' new regime this past offseason.
So far, he's struggled to live up to the new contract.
Bowe has had trouble getting open in Reid's offense, and has been subjected to constant double-teams. He has 33 catches for 369 yards and two touchdowns through the first nine games.
The Chiefs returned to practice from their bye on Monday, and while there was no access to players, coach Andy Reid said on a conference call with reporters that everyone participated.
"Everybody was back," Reid said, "which is a good thing."
That presumably included Bowe, whom the Chiefs may have to find a way to replace when the team resumes practice on Wednesday. They're already thin at wide receiver, and Bowe's absence would put more pressure on Donnie Avery and Dexter McCluster in the passing game. Avery, signed by the Chiefs this past offseason, has 27 catches for 396 yards and a touchdown. McCluster has 25 catches for 262 yards and a score.
It would also put more pressure on running back Jamaal Charles, who has a team-leading 47 receptions while also leading the AFC with 725 yards rushing. The Chiefs already had been wary of using Charles too much during the first half of the season.
"Well, knowing he's one of your more explosive players. You're going to try and get him the ball as much as you can," offensive coordinator Doug Pederson said. "That's just the nature of it."

There will be increased patrols during the Memorial Day holiday weekend. Law enforcement will be looking for drunk drivers.
The Pueblo County Sheriff's Office will be among those with increased patrols. Sheriff Kirk Taylor says it's important to know your limits and have a designated driver.
"The designated driver approach is a great movement. A friend or family member that will agree to stay sober while others drink alcohol is a hero. They watch out for their friends' best interest and then get them home safely. Have the conversation about transportation before everyone starts drinking and hand over the keys right then. We want everyone home safe this weekend," Taylor said in a statement released by the Sheriff's Office.

trouble," he said
Meeting Next Generation Goals
The Conservation Department is committed to providing opportunities for Missourians like the West family to continue to enjoy outdoor activities. If our outdoor recreation heritage is to continue, families like the Wests will have to continue to pass down their hunting traditions to future generations. Hunting, trapping and fishing provide an essential service in controlling some populations of fish and wildlife as well as contributing to the state economy. Conservation lands also play a role in maintaining our outdoor recreation heritage by providing easy access and comfortable facilities so that people can enjoy them with friends or family.

Working Together for a Watershed
"We want everybody with all points of view involved."
LaBarque Creek in Jefferson County drains water from a 13-square-mile watershed into the Meramec River.
It does so delightfully. Twisting, turning, tumbling and gurgling, it slides through steep rock canyons and falls over imposing cliffs. Moist, cool nooks and crannies in the sandstone rock near the stream serve as refuges for blueberries, club mosses and the intensely pink fame flower.
"To people tuned into the aesthetics of a landscape, LaBarque is just eye-candy," said Mike Arduser, a natural history biologist for the Conservation Department's St. Louis Region. "The acidic soils from the sandstone make for a different suite of plants than you'll find elsewhere in Missouri. Most people can't help but be drawn to that kind of beauty."
LaBarque Creek is remarkably healthy, especially for a stream so close to St. Louis. Fisheries biologists count 42 different species of fish in the 6-mile-long stream. Other nearby Meramec tributaries average just 10 species. In the 1960s, Stewart Udall, then secretary of the interior, considered the area for a national park.
The watershed has remained pristine in the face of Jefferson County's rapid growth because the steep topography of the landscape has fended off development, and because local landowners love the area too much to risk spoiling it.
That's why residents of the watershed came out in droves to the LaBarque Creek Festival held in April 2005. Of the 1,300 people who live in the watershed, more than 300 attended the event. They learned more about the history and biology of the area and discussed ways they could protect the unique resource they called home.
"That was really the kickoff to the watershed planning process," said Tracy Boaz, the community conservationist working out of

LONDON, March 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Fem Writes, a new organisation fronted by successful author Sarah Luddington, has just been launched to combat a perceived bias against female authors who dare to push sexual boundaries and norms. Aided by Adele Carrington and Jenny Ainslie-Turner, the three are setting out to challenge the establishment view that female authors should only write in relatively specific genre.
"E L James has proven that female authors can push sexual boundaries in their writing," Sarah said. "But even she first published under an androgynous pseudonym. The author of Story Of O kept her identity secret for years and most assumed it had been written by a man, as a woman could never be capable of such writing. My own novels have caused a firestorm on Amazon as I write in first person as a bi-sexual medieval knight, yet similar tales written by men rarely raise an eyebrow."
Fellow author Adele Carrington has recently been featured on radio and in the national press due to the exposure that she leads a polyamorous lifestyle. Her latest vampire novel, 'Denial', has a polyamorous heroine who has already created furor. "In the mid-eighteenth century Casanova wrote his diary, 'Histoire de ma vie' which made the male author a folk hero," Adele said. "Yet a hundred years later, one of the greatest female authors, Jane Austen, had to release her first novel under the pseudonym 'A Lady' as the content was deemed unladylike."
Jenny Ainslie-Turner is the third part of this trio of fiery ladies. Her own novel, 'Will You Be My Fantasy' is inspired by her own life as a telephone sex girl and is currently causing quite a stir. "I think it's terribly hypocritical," she said. "Men can write erotic fiction and nobody bats an eyelid, yet female writers tend to have to write under pen names which are then assumed to be men anyway!"
"It seems the world expects female authors to stick to the accepted genres of detective, romance or historical novels, with conventional, somewhat repressed, sexual content," Sarah continued. "We need to fight this silent prejudice and explain to the world that what's good for the gander is indeed good for the goose."

The I Am Troy call to action
By Benjamin Todd Jealous
Guest Commentator
Two years ago last week, the state of Georgia ignored the facts, doubts and pleas of hundreds of thousands of people and killed Troy Anthony Davis. Today, on the anniversary of his execution, we rededicate ourselves to ending the immoral, biased and ineffective practice of capital punishment. For 15 years, we fought alongside Troy to clear his name for the killing of Savannah Police Officer Mark Allen MacPhail. Troy remained adamant about his innocence to his last breath. As explained in the new book I Am Troy Davis by author Jen Marlowe and Troy's sister, Martina Davis-Correia, the case against Troy lacked conclusive evidence after many key witnesses recanted testimony from the time of the original trial.

DENVER – The Denver Nuggets have acquired G Randy Foye from the Utah Jazz as part of a three-team sign-and-trade deal that also includes the Golden State Warriors, Nuggets general manager/executive vice president of basketball operations Tim Connelly announced today.
In addition to Foye, Denver received a future second-round pick from the Warriors in a sign-and-trade agreement for G/F Andre Iguodala, while Utah received a future second-round pick from the Nuggets.
The Warriors received G Kevin Murphy from Utah and sent C Andris Biedrins, F Richard Jefferson and G/F Brandon Rush to the Jazz, along with two future first-round picks, three future second-round picks and cash considerations.
Foye, 6-4, 220, averaged 10.8 points and 2.0 assists while making a franchise-record 178 3-pointers for the Jazz last season. He was one of only five NBA players to shoot better than .400 from 3-point range while taking at least 400 attempts.
"Randy is one of the most dangerous 3-point shooters in the game today," Connelly said. "He addresses a major need for us on the perimeter, and he will also provide great veteran leadership for our young players."
Drafted seventh overall by Minnesota in 2006, Foye has averaged 11.5 points, 3.0 assists and 2.2 rebounds in seven NBA seasons with the Timberwolves, Washington Wizards, Los Angeles Clippers and Utah.
Foye has made at least 100 3-pointers three times in his career and is a career .377 shooter from long range. He also is one of the league's most accurate free-throw shooters, converting 85.6 percent of his foul shots.

Atlantic Flyway Standout Species: Wood Thrush
Wood Thrush numbers have declined as forests have been cut on their breeding grounds in the Eastern U.S. and their wintering grounds in southern Mexico and Central America. Yet nearly half of Wood Thrush pairs have two broods per nesting season, so given a chance, their numbers could rebound. Protected areas like the Adirondack Park in New York give them that chance!
Please help BirdNote spread the word about the lives and needs of birds, in your flyway and beyond.

How to Write a Research Paper
Papers in psychology classes must be written using American
Psychological Association (APA) format (Check with the professor if you have
any questions). Although you should refer to the APA Publication Manual (4th
edition) itself for more detailed information, a synopsis of several
critical areas of concern is presented here.
The following section describes the major components of the format for
research articles as set forth by the American Psychological Association. You
should also use published research articles as a model for what information
needs to be covered in each section.
For published research, the title often determines whether a person chooses
to read an article. Therefore, the title should be concise and specific.
Typically, titles should be fifteen words or less. Avoid phrases such as "An
experimental investigation," "An experiment," "A study of," and "The effect
of," since these are already assumed. Avoid using abbreviations in a title as
well. Titles often express the dependent or independent variables investigated
in the research or the theoretical question. For example, "Music is detrimental
to short-term memory." Titles should be informational and brief and should
summarize the main idea of the paper.
The abstract is usually written after the rest of the report is completed.
It should be about 150 words or less. Similar to the title, abstracts are often
used by individuals to decide whether to read the entire report. The abstract
should indicate the purpose of the study and summarize the main findings.
Abstracts should be concise and specific. Avoid abbreviations. Do not repeat
the title. Begin with the most important information and indicate the purpose
of the study, main findings, and implications. In short, abstracts should be
nonevaluative, coherent, concise and self-contained.
This section should begin with a statement of the problem or concept being
investigated. Since the introduction is always the first part of the report
(after the abstract), it does not need a heading. It should include some
background information about your subject and review the results of previous
studies. Typically, the literature review should be comprehensive but need not
be exhaustive. Cite only articles that are relevant to your present research.
Make sure that you clearly indicate the continuity between previous research
and what you are currently proposing or reporting. Indicate any inconsistent
findings or important unanswered questions. The introduction should clearly
state the hypotheses under investigation and the variables that will be
manipulated. It should also include the logic underlying your study and
expected outcomes.
The purpose of the method section is to adequately describe your study so
that anyone who wants to replicate it can do so. It indicates what procedures
you used. It usually includes subsections for subjects and procedure. The
subject subdivision should indicate the number of individuals used in the
study, how they were selected and assigned to treatment conditions, and general
characteristics (age, gender, ethnic group). Avoid open-ended descriptions such
as "under 18" or "over 65." Be specific. Be sure to describe any information
about your subjects that is relevant to the study (e.g. educational level,
diagnosis). Indicate how the subjects were assigned to different groups, what
payments were made (if any), the nature of informed consent agreements and
similar information.
The apparatus section should describe any equipment or materials (e.g.,
tests, scales ) used in the study and their purpose. Standard equipment such as
stop watches need only brief mention. Indicate how the equipment can be
obtained (including model number or other distinguishing information and
supplier). Custom-made equipment should be adequately described. At times,
drawings or photographs can be used. Complex descriptions can also be included
in an appendix when appropriate. Indicate coding or other scoring procedures.
If the materials used are custom-made (such as a questionnaire), indicate how
it was constructed and other pertinent information (e.g., validity,
The procedure section summarizes the research methodology and research
design. This section should include relevant information about the experimenter
or observers (e.g., education, training). It should describe the setting of the
study and any relevant information (e.g., lighting, sound). Indicate any
control features of the study such as randomization or counterbalancing.
Indicate the instructions given to the participants and the testing procedures
(you need not repeat standard testing procedures). Indicate the specific
experimental manipulations. Indicate the number of sessions and duration.
Indicate what responses the subjects are required to make. In short, indicate
exactly what you did so that the reader can replicate the procedures.
This section summarizes the data that were collected and their statistical
analysis. Begin with the main results or findings and then describe all of the
other relevant results and provide necessary descriptive statistics (means,
standard deviations). Do not discuss the implications of the results in this
section or give any opinions.
Present your data in a way that is clear and concise. Tables and figures
should be labeled in such a way that they can be understood without turning to
the text. However, when you use any tables or figures, make sure that you
allude to them in the text and indicate what the reader should look for in
them. Each table and figure should include a descriptive title. Tables refer to
any tabular information that can be typeset. These would include lists of
terms, columns of numbers or percentages, and other quantitative information.
In the text, refer to tables by their numbers. For example. "Table 8 shows the
mean number of. . ." rather than "the table above shows". Number all tables
with Arabic numerals in the order in which they are mentioned in the text.
Publishers usually prefer tables to figures because they are less expensive
to reproduce. However, figures can convey a lot of information in a quick
glance and are often very useful. Any type of illustration other than a table
is called a figure. These include graphs, charts, drawings, or photographs. As
with tables, figures should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numbers
throughout the article.
When reporting any statistical information in your report, make sure to
indicate the value of the test (for example t = 1.8), the probability
level (p =.07) and degrees of freedom (df = 107). If you say that
statistically significant differences were found, make sure that you indicate
the alpha level. The most commonly used alpha levels are .05 and .01. When
reporting a mean, you should also indicate the standard deviation or the
standard error of the mean (s.e.m.). Do not overwhelm the reader with raw data.
Make sure that you summarize all the data in a way that is easily read and
The Discussion section gives you an opportunity to discuss your findings and
to present and interpret their implications. Your discussion should generally
refer to your original hypothesis or purpose of the study. In general, you
should begin with a statement that indicates whether your hypotheses were
supported or rejected. However, you need not repeat everything that was
presented in the Results section. You should indicate how your results compare
with what other researchers have found (i.e. you should cite previous
literature in the discussion section). What conclusions and implications can
you draw? What problems were encountered in your study? What are some flaws or
limitations? What would you have done differently if you were starting again?
What new questions does this study raise? What are some ideas for future
The discussion section need not be wordy or long-winded but it should convey
to the reader exactly what you found and what it contributes to the literature.
Avoid being defensive and avoid excessive speculation.
The purpose of an Appendix is to provide information that would be too large
or distracting to put in the main body of the paper. Examples would be an
unpublished questionnaire that you developed and used in a study; a detailed
description of a piece of equipment; a computer program; list of words; a
complex formula, informed consent forms, and in some cases, raw data.
If you only have one appendix, simply label it "Appendix". If you have more
than one, label each with a capital letter (e.g. Appendix A, Appendix B) in the
order that it is mentioned in the text. Each appendix should also have a title,
but in the text, refer to each by its label (e.g., Appendix A, B). Start each
new Appendix on a separate page.
The reference list appears after the Discussion section. Remember that a reference
list includes only the articles used in the paper. A bibliography, on the other
hand, may include works for further reading. APA style in general does not make
use of bibliographies. A complete description of the APA style that is used
in preparing the reference section appears in the next section. Note that citations
in the text must appear in the reference list and each entry in the reference
list must appear in the text. Each work in the reference list appears in alphabetical
order by the first author's last name (see Using APA Style section
for examples). In order to save time, make sure that you write down pertinent
information about each reference as you are writing your report. If you wait
until the end, you may find it difficult to locate the information that you
need. Be careful about spelling names correctly and making sure that all other
information is accurate.

Make connections; let rip; and dance where you can. (97)
Manya-Jean: In Pilgrim at Tinker Creek, Annie Dillard explores issues of existence in a modern world: how does one slow themselves down to register the quiet, subtle magnificence of small wonders in the midst of the fast-paced, unreflective time of modernity? Further, how does one, once in acknowledgment of these quiet wonders, reconcile that they exist in the "brute game" of modernity, and how does one find his own place in this paradoxical modern world? To explore these questions, Dillard commits herself to a solitary journey in observation across the expanse of land that is her backyard: Tinker Creek. She studies, touches, internalizes, and questions those activities so subtle they have become camoflouge of the land: the death of a frog, the birth of a praying mantiss. She describes them like a camera zoomed into its subject: chronological and meticulously detailed. She frames these observations in a continuously shifting weave of her own personal memories, the dictums of historians and philosophers, and greater existential query.
I am sitting under a bankside sycamore; my mind is a slope. Arthur Koestler wrote, "In his review of the literature on the psychological present, Woodrow found that its maximum span is estimated to lie between 2.3 and 12 seconds." How did anyone measure that slide? As soon as you are conscious of it, it is gone. I repeat a phrase: the thin tops of mountains. Soon the thin tops of mountains erupt, as if volcanically, from my brain's core. I can see them; they are, surprisingly, serrate — scalloped like the blade of a kitchen knife — and brown as leaves. The serrated edges are so thin they are translucent; through the top of one side of the brown ridge I can see, in silhouette, a circling sharp-shinned hawk; through another, deep tenuous veins of metallic ore. This isn't Tinker Creek. Where do I live, anyway? I lose myself, I float . . . . I am in Persia, trying to order a watermelon in German. It's insane. The engineer has abandoned the control room, and an idiot is splicing the reels. What could I contribute to the "literature on the psychological present"? If I could remember to press the knob on the stop-watch, I wouldn't be in Persia. Before they invented the unit of the second, people used to time the lapse of short events on their pulses. Oh, but what about that heave in the wrist when I saw the tree with the lights in it, and my heart ceased, but I am still there?
Here, Dillard intermingles a collection of astute observation, intellectual documentation, existential rambling, extended metaphor, and memory to disciplinarily assume the task of recognizing beauty in a dark, modern world.
Hans: Manya is right in pointing out Dillard's method of exposing the beauty in our everyday surroundings. She studies the world around her with all the wonder of a child and all the precision of a botanist. She paints the natural landscape with an astonishing amount of detail, as if she intends for her words to be a tribute to the earth itself. But Dillard aims as much to describe beauty in nature as she does to explore the nature of consciousness. Why exactly does her mind find a toad or praying mantis beautiful? What defines those dangling, perfect moments where she is completely and utterly in the present? The more she tries to analyze her own consciousness, the more she finds herself at a loss. In the passage above, what begins as natural imagery of mountains quickly breaks down into non-sequiturs. The mind resists efforts at dissection — Dillard may as well be trying to pin down a cloud, for all her attempts to quantify the psychological present. Even if she could, she realizes that it doesn't matter, because they can't capture or explain the emotions at which "the heart ceased." Dillard pursues the ephemeral nature of the mind throughout her book, recognizing that beauty is as much an interplay between the consciousness and the sublime as it is an artifact of the world itself.
Chase: Much like Thoreau's Walden, Dillard seeks to find in nature that gentle or organic something which she feels deprived of in her everyday life; unlike Thoreau, what she finds in nature does not allow her to transcend her daily tumult, but is instead and in its own way just as complex and unforgiving. Her frenetic, contemplative style serves as a product of her findings: since she cannot sing the praises of nature, she must understand how it applies to and is interpellated within the functioning of modernity — for instance, how does the plurality of beings of species who speak and understand each other so differently compare to the plurality of coexisting, commingling languages? Dillard recalls her own early dismissal of learning new languages because of their total unfamiliarity — the idea of having to start from the ground up and understanding still that this remains one of many languages, and one cannot learn all — in a way that harkens back to her confusion and frustration with plurality/psychology in the earlier cited passage:
When I was quite young I fondly imagined that all foreign languages were codes for English. I thought that "hat," say, was the real and actual name of the thing, but the people in other countries, who obstinately persisted in speaking the code of their forefathers, might use the word "ibu," say, to designate not merely the concept hat, but the English word "hat." I knew only one foreign word, "oui," and since it had three letters as did the word for which it was a code, it seemed, touchingly enough, to confirm my theory. Each foreign language was a different code, I figured, and at school I would eventually be given the keys to unlock some of the most important codes' systems. Of course I knew that it might take years before I became so fluent in another language that I could code and decode easily in my head, and make of gibberish a nimble sense. On the first day of my first French course, how ever, things rapidly took on an entirely unexpected shape. I realized that I was going to have to learn speech all over again, word by word, one word at a time — and my dismay knew no bounds. (105-106; Chapter 7)
Dillard approaches the language of nature similar to the way she approached French, although we have evidence that she tries a little harder to understand it — just as well, we know that in the face of nature and its true unfamiliarity Dillard's dismay often "knows no bounds." Once she finds that nature is just as frenetic as and shares many principles, some Darwinian, with the modern world, she can turn nature into a metaphysical (or at least not entirely ontological) thing, as she did in the first passage. What is to say that one deciduous forest differs from another in anything but name itself? These issues of plurality (which Dillard often thinks are problematic or unnecessary) dominate her text in a way that actualizes her disappointment at finding something more hierarchical and complex in nature, which proves to be much unlike Thoreau's peaceful or reverential conception.
Anna: Dillard establishes her credibility as a modern sage by offering the reader a glimpse into her consciousness, "insane" as it might be. By bringing her audience along on this pilgrimage of sight, Dillard allows the reader to share her narrator's most intimate thoughts. This proximity to the narrator leaves no doubt in the reader's mind as to the relative reality of what is being observed. By incorporating and building upon ideas external to her consciousness, Dillard cements the validity of her narrator's observations. Her invocation of an earlier sage's reference to another's discovery echoes the intricacy of this "psychological present" and the natural world she observes. In thus providing a theoretical basis through which to explore her memories and perceptions, Dillard ties her dreamlike sentences into a unified whole. Dillard's stylistic arrangement of fifteen disoriented chapters also provides the work with a paradoxical cohesiveness: the integration is achieved in each chapter's steady tone and equally scattered observations.
Chase: I think that the question of Dillard's placement on the sage/wisdom speaker/satirist grid is an interesting one. Essentially, we learned that the wisdom speaker writes about existing values and virtues (thus he views the world positively or is at least pleased with his observances of it), whereas the sage takes on a more prescriptive moral authority when he claims that society has drifted ever so slightly and needs to be reoriented. I would argue that Dillard incorporates aspects of both: she observes that society has drifted ever so slightly, but, like the wisdom speaker, she describes things as is, in the sense that her text hinges on observances rather than moral prescriptions. I don't mean that Dillard is a cynic — I'm just suggesting that maybe her moral suggestions are more implicit, if they're there at all?
Allison: In response to Anna's brief mention of sight and Chase's comments on Dillard as a sage-writer or wisdom speaker: in the second chapter of Pilgrim at Tinker Creek - appropriately entitled "Seeing" — Dillard addresses the importance of one's ability to absorb and, ultimately, appreciate nature and Her many subtle nuances. The author paints several pictures for her readers, inspired by her own experiences walking in the woods of Tinker Creek, which exemplify the subtle wonders and magnificence of nature that typically go unnoticed by passers-by; most notable among these exists the narrative of the frog accosted and tragically killed by the giant water bug. Although these narratives occur at a seemingly microscopic level, relatively inconsequential in relation to the fast pace of the modern world, Dillard establishes them as microcosms of society — instances reflective of larger truths. One must learn, as Dillard insinuates and Manya-Jean points out, to slow down and observe the brilliance of the physical world or risk losing what it has to offer: "Nature is very much a now-you-see-it, now-you-don't affair... it's all a matter of keeping my eyes open." Sight, however, does not entirely comprise one's ability to commune with nature. Several detailed narratives of once-blind patients who have regained their vision establish that some individuals who lacked sight felt more in-tune with their surroundings than they did post-operatively. "For the newly sighted, vision is pure sensation unencumbered by meaning" - a blank slate. These "newly sighted" can respond to their surroundings in one of two ways: either awe-inspired by the vastness of their environment or oppressed by the earth's "tremendous size":
It oppresses them to realize, if they ever do at all, the tremendous size of the world, which they had previously conceived of as something touchingly manageable. It oppresses them to realize that they have been visible to people all along, perhaps unattractively so, without their knowledge or consent. A disheartening number of them refuse to use their new vision, continuing to go over objects with they tongues, and lapsing into apathy and despair.
In the quoted passage, Dillard alludes to sight as the mechanism of man's tendency toward superficiality and materialism - an obsession with appearance, which represents an intrinsic shortcoming, or fault, of man. Unfortunately, this is the path down which man more commonly treads. The moral implications of Dillard's text, while implicit, exist: man has become too preoccupied with the material world to revel in the beauty and intricacy of the physical, natural world. Dillard, as wisdom speaker, presents the virtues of the world as viewed through her eyes; as sage writer, however, the author implies that men, on the whole, must adopt her worldly perspective in order to digest those virtues.
Jane: Dillard describes her naturalist observations in vivid, poetic detail, and yet they so often evoke images of the grotesque, with morbidly philosophical undertones. Even the above passage (p. 93) stresses the ephemerality of the present: the images Dillard presents are "thin," "translucent," sliding down the slope of her "psychological present" as they leave her sense of consciousness. Dillard has a fascination with not only death, it seems, but dying, finding a strange beauty in the recognition of her own mortality (the ceasing of her heart) as well as the world around her. In one image, Dillard presents a curious incident of a mockingbird's descent:
The mockingbird took a single step into the air and dropped. His wings were still folded against his sides as though he were singing from a limb and not falling, accelerating thirty-two feet per second per second, through empty air. Just a breath before he would have been dashed to the ground, he unfurled his wings with exact, deliberate care, revealing the broad bars of white, spread his elegant, white-banded tail, and so floated onto the grass.
Dillard mentions this scenario to illustrate the "tree falls in a forest" effect, that beauty exists whether or not we are present as witnesses. Yet the image poses the question: would Dillard, who admires the mockingbird's calm, almost mathematical fall and the beautiful unfurling of his wings, remain so enthralled were the bird not hurtling towards his death? Or perhaps, given her engrossment in the shriveled skin of a frog sucked of its juices, she would have been equally pleased to watch the bird die: a mystical, unexplained suicide. Though Dillard portrays nature's crueler moments as minute horrors, she clearly cannot look away, and the reader wonders whether she is unafraid to stare or simply voyeuristic. After watching the frog's death, Dilllard "couldn't catch her breath": perhaps nature's cruelty, the evidence of harsh mortality, excites rather than disturbs Dillard.
Kimberly: I'm writing this in response to Chase's suggestion that Dillard's text "hinges on observances rather than moral prescriptions. I don't mean that Dillard is a cynic — I'm just suggesting that maybe her moral suggestions are more implicit, if they're there at all?" and I'm also elaborating on Anna's "By bringing her audience along on this pilgrimage of sight, Dillard allows the reader to share her narrator's most intimate thoughts."
In parts, Dillard's moral views are "implicit" as Chase suggests, because stream-of-consciousness narration intrinsically includes the author's opinions. We know that Dillard intends for us to search for meaning in her ramblings because she sees value in relating them. She associates herself with "the world's spiritual geniuses" who "seem to discover universally that the mind's muddy river, this ceaseless flow of trivia and trash, cannot be dammed, and that trying to dam it is a waste of effort that might lead to madness. Instead you must allow the muddy river to flow unheeded in the dim channels of consciousness; you raise your sights; you look along it, mildly, acknowledging its presence without interest and gazing beyond it into the realm of the real where subjects and objects act and rest purely, without utterance." (35) Although she refers to her thoughts as "trivia and trash," Dillard glorifies introspection, inviting the reader to examine her musings as closely as she examines nature.
But even as she writes this, Dillard cannot avoid slipping into the voice of a sage. She addresses the reader and uses the imperative "must." When Dillard describes her observations, she does so to make herself an example. She concludes an observation with advice to the reader, explicitly stating the moral of the story:
Make connections; let rip; and dance where you can. (97)
Slow it down more, come closer still. A dot appears, a flesh-flake. It swells like a balloon; it moves, circles, slows, and vanishes. This is your life. (145)
Spend the afternoon. You can't take it with you." (274)
As a sage, Dillard consciously (and seemingly unconsciously) conveys her moral opinions to the reader. She encourages the reader to pause and consider her observations, and she forces the reader to slow down by pacing her writing and offering frank counsel.
Manya: A response to Michael and Kimberly: As we have said, Dillard commits herself in this book to remove the goggles of modernity, and to expose her naked eyes to nature around her, without the goal of assumption or conclusion in mind. In the first few pages, she lays out the effects of modernity on the way one thinks about the world around them, so as to explain why she chooses to dismiss modern clout and view Tinker Creek with fresh, unassuming eyes:
An infant who has just learned to hold his head up has a frank and forthright way of gazing about him in bewilderment. He hasn't the faintest clue where he is, and he aims to learn. In a couple of years, what he will have learned instead is how to fake it: he'll have the cocksure air of a squatter who has come to feel he owns the place. Some unwonted, taught pride diverts us from our original intent, which is to explore the neighborhood, view the landscape, to discover at least where it is that we have been so startlingly set down, if we can't learn why.
And so she seeks out simply, as she aptly deems her second chapter title, to see. She describes the structural deflation of the frog, the pulsing abdomen of a praying mantiss in labor. But, contradictory to her goal, she does not simply see where she has "been so startlingly set down". Somehow, because as Chase writes, "what she finds in nature does not allow her to transcend her daily tumult, but is instead and in its own way just as complex and unforgiving," she cannot simply describe a "where" she is (seeing, observing), but must press on to hypothesize reasons, morals, lessons, conclusions, answers to "why" she is there:
The answer must be, I think, that beauty and grace are performed whether or not we will or sense them. The least we can try to do is be there. [10]
It is ironic that the one thing that all religions recognize as separating us from our creator-- our very self-consciousness-- is also the one thing that divides us from our fellow creatures. It was a bitter birthday present from evolution, cutting us off at both ends. [80]
As Kimberly points out, she does not simply hypothesize answers to questions of how why and how nature things exist the way that they do, but even sells her views as conclusions for her reader. Kimberly writes, she "cannot avoid slipping into the voice of a sage. She addresses the reader and uses the imperative Òmust.Ó When Dillard describes her observations, she does so to make herself an example. She concludes an observation with advice to the reader, explicitly stating the moral of the story:
Make connections; let rip; and dance where you can. [97]
Slow it down more, come closer still. A dot appears, a flesh-flake. It swells like a balloon; it moves, circles, slows, and vanishes. This is your life. [145]
Spend the afternoon. You can't take it with you. [274]
No, Dillard does not "have the cocksure air of a squatter who has come to feel he owns the place," but does she encroach on the property of modernity when she tries to answer questions of why things exist, instead of simply describing that or how they do? In other words, can we argue that even in an attempt to peal the clout of modernity away from her thought-process, she has returned to the problemetizing, assumptions, and conclusions that it encourages? If so, does she do so subconsciously or to make a point about the natural ways of the human mind? If not, what do we make of her constant hypothesizing and sage wisdom?

The Denali Experiment
A really beautiful work by Camp4Collective shot on 5D & TM900. Free-ride skier Sage Cattabriga-Alosa and big mountain snowboarder Lucas Debari step out of their elements and make an attempt to climb, ski and snowboard Denali.
Sage and Lucas get a helping hand from a huge cast of seasoned and professional climbers and ski mountaineers from the North Face Athlete Team, including Hilaree O'Neill, Conrad Anker, Ingrid Backstrom, Jim Zellers, Emilio Previtali and Giulia Monego, as the two embark on the hardest expedition of their lives.
"In a lot of ways, this is the antithesis of the modern ski porn flick" says Director Jimmy Chin and continues: "A lot of rock star skiers and not much skiing! Ha! Well, hopefully having a narrative helps the piece along. It was a tough piece to put together with all the different characters. I decided to focus the story on Sage and Lucas and was hoping the piece would give people a sense of who those two characters are besides being rock star skiers/snowboarders. I often feel like the whole process of skiing and who the skiers actually are gets lost in most of the films today."

How to Get Motivated to Clean the House
Have you ever planned on cleaning the house but weren't motivated enough to do so? Well here are some steps, tips, and warnings to help you get motivated to cleaning your house.
1Exercise. If you find tidying stressful, exercise beforehand.
2Make a list of rooms you'd like to clean and if it helps you do it in the order you'd like to clean them in. You can start in the bathroom seeing that it's the smallest and easiest rooms of all.
3Put some motivating music on. Music that will pump you up and make you want to keep moving.
4Work on one room at a time. If you're trying to clean the whole house at once you'll get overwhelmed and it will discourage you from cleaning.
5Have a system for organizing your papers. If you make your own file or personalize it with paint it can make organizing more enjoyable.
6Reward yourself. Having a reward such as meeting up with a friend afterwards or having a party can really help you to tidy.
7Learn to think positively about tidying. What benefits does it bring?
- It can help you overcome procrastination.
- It will make you feel calmer.
- Tidying is not a waste of time and in the long run it could help you save time (instead of looking for something which will take a long time, you can find it faster and easier).
Community Q&A
Answered QuestionsAdd New Question
How do you not get distracted when cleaning?
- Put all your distractions away, namely put your phone on silent and in a separate room or just turn it off and turn off the TV. A radio program might be useful as you can listen to it without being persuaded to sit down and watch anything. Focus on how lovely it will all be when cleaned and you can sit down and enjoy that afterward.
Ask a Question
- Put your phone on silent unless you're expecting an important call. Stopping what you're doing to text someone back will only use up time that you could have been up and moving.
- Wear clothes that are comfortable, and that will either keep you warm enough or cool enough!
- Look at the good work you've done so far. if you start to loose your motivation, just take a good look at the work you've already done and that will motivate you to do more and finish cleaning.
- Think of how good it will feel to relax in a clean home without having to be around mess, or if you're someone still living with your parents that nag you to do things like I am, think about not having to be bugged to do some things around the house.
- Try to clean when you are at home by yourself and you're free for the day. If someone is home and you're are trying to clean it's a hassle to Try to clean around them.
- Get a bottle of your favorite drink and create a to do list. For every item you check off your to do list, take a shot.
- Do not eat in the room you are cleaning because you are making mess while trying to clean mess.
- Do not take breaks every five minutes! Try taking breaks after cleaning each room or every other room. Once you sit down, you're going to want to stay sitting down and then you'll loose your motivation to make a clean home.

Why are you normal and other people are strange?
OK, maybe not strange…just different.
Let's look at personality type and how it may affect people's communication.
A person with a different personality type to you will probably communicate differently. If we have a grasp of Personality and Communication issues it can help us understand why others communicate as they do, and help us adapt our communication style in certain circumstances so that others get the message we are trying to convey.
There are many personality tests. The one used below categorises people into 4 personality types, Yellow, Red, Green, Blue.
Yellow people are: Sociable; Dynamic; Demonstrative; Enthusiastic; Persuasive; Expressive.
They like to speak, and can talk about anything; they are convincing and inspiring, spontaneous, sociable, like to have fun and like to tell stories. They are loud, may interrupt, believe they should fill the silent gaps, go off on tangents, forget, and can be poor listeners.
Red people are: Competitive; Demanding; Strong-willed; Purposeful; Driver.
They look at the big issues, want a quick outline, stick to the purpose, make decisions quickly, are open to new and different ideas, will take risks, and can be people of few words, preferring to be goal-orientated rather than people-orientated. They can be forceful, have one-way communication (they talk you listen), and are bored by trivia.
Green people are: Caring; Encouraging; Sharing; Patient; Relaxed; Amiable.
They like a schedule of things to work through, are good listeners, take on a diplomatic/mediator role, avoid conflict and are easy to get along with. They can be people-orientated rather than goal-orientated. They may not want to speak up and may prefer people to speak on their behalf, they resist change, are reserved, and too compromising.
Blue people are: Cautious; Precise; Deliberate; Questioning; Formal; Analytical.
They won't make rash decisions, liking a lot of details before making a decision, are sensitive to others, persistent in getting their message across, will listen, will speak deliberately and precisely, and are persistent and thorough. They may not speak up, will take part in 'sensible' conversations only, speak slowly, may be hard to please, and won't take risks.
Think through some of the people you know. Do you recognise any of the communication styles in them?
Happy speaking!

Inguinal Hernia
Inguinal Hernia
Alternate Names
- hernia
A hernia occurs when part of an organ is, for any of a number of reasons, pushed through an opening in the body into a place it does not belong. Inguinal hernias, located in the groin, are the most common type of hernia.
What is going on in the body?
With an inguinal hernia, the intestines bulge through a weak spot in the lower abdomen or groin. The intestines may get pushed down into the genital area. When the bulge is just underneath the skin, it can be quite obvious.
What are the causes and risks of the condition?
Weak tissues in the abdomen cause an inguinal hernia. This weakness may be present at birth or may develop later in life.
What can be done to prevent the condition?
Most hernias can not be prevented, but maintaining proper weight and regular exercise to keep muscles toned may sometimes help to prevent a hernia.
How is the condition diagnosed?
This type of hernia is diagnosed through a medical history and physical exam. During the exam, the healthcare provider palpates the groin area. He or she asks the person to cough, which increases pressure on the weak tissues. If a hernia is present, it will often bulge out so that it can be felt.
Long Term Effects
What are the long-term effects of the condition?
Hernias are often left alone initially and may cause no symptoms. Usually, the intestine bulges out and then goes back to where it belongs. Over time, though, if the hernia has enlarged and is starting to cause more symptoms, it needs to be repaired surgically. Normally the surgery can be scheduled for a convenient time and carried out after careful preparation.
However, occasionally the intestine can bulge out and get stuck. This is dangerous and can cause great pain. The intestine can then become swollen and have its blood supply cut off, a life-threatening circumstance. If this happens, the surgery has to be done as an emergency.
Other Risks
What are the risks to others?
There are no risks to others.
What are the treatments for the condition?
The main treatment is hernia repair surgery. The goal is to support the weak tissues and prevent the intestines from bulging out of the abdomen. For most hernias, surgery can be done in the morning and the person can go home later that day.
Side Effects
What are the side effects of the treatments?
Like any surgery, a hernia repair can be complicated by bleeding, infection, or an allergic reaction to the anesthetic Occasionally, the place where a hernia has been repaired can burst open or come apart, and the operation has to be done over again.
After Treatment
What happens after treatment for the condition?
The person usually needs only a few days to recover. After recovery, he or she generally can go back to normal activities.
How is the condition monitored?
After a full recovery from surgery, no further monitoring is normally needed. If a person does not want to have surgery, repeat physical exams can be done to see if the hernia is enlarging. Any new or worsening symptoms should be reported to the healthcare professional.
