SeaPlanner is an innovative suite of modular, web-based, management and monitoring tools which are fully customisable to your project requirements.
For those working offshore, SeaPlanner offers a full project tracking system, allowing you to take full control and have complete visibility of your offshore project. The SeaPlanner software is scalable to a wide range of industries from the largest construction and operation sites in the LNG, dredging, and renewable energy sectors, to small scale vessel owners who need to track only a small number of personnel and their assets.
Assisting in managing marine planning and logistics, on-site safety, and multi-contractor projects, SeaPlanner provides significant benefits by integrating information from planning through to operations. The system can efficiently control all spatial (personnel & vessel location, infrastructure, metocean) and non-spatial data (certifications, documentation, training matrices, resourcing planning, HSE risk/ incident logs) across a project team, stakeholders, staff and contractors, providing a clear audit trail of all information on site from day one.
As a web-based system, SeaPlanner provides all stakeholders with access anywhere, anytime; and the permissions-based access ensures personnel can access and manage their specific project areas 24 / 7, 365 days a year. Modules can be used independently or as an integrated suite, with comprehensive training provided for your project team, along with a full system setup. SeaRoc Group can also provide the personnel to manage the system for the project in its entirety, including marine co-ordinators, permit controllers and document controllers.
Here's what some of our clients had to say...
Van Oord utilised SeaPlanner as a highly effective management tool during their 16 million cubic metre Darwin Harbour Dredging Works for the Ichthys LNG Project. More than 1,000 personnel were tracked across 13 vessels, providing up to date operational information and a very useful audit trail.
Koos van der Geer, Project Director, Van Oord
The SeaPlanner Induction Module provides a user-friendly online tool that lets our contractors submit key personnel data and certificates for our approval. With the inductees registering their own details online, there was a significant reduction in our administration workload whilst allowing us full control over the process and results.

Grand National Roadster Show Outdoors - The Drive-InWritten on June 1, 2010 The 61st Grand National Roadster Show
The Drive-In
When the Grand National Roadster Show moved to Pomona there were some skeptics. One of the concerns was the venue-at the Fairplex the cars would have to be spread over a number of buildings rather than housed in one, but that has led to one of the unique features of this show: the Drive-In. On Saturday and Sunday the areas between the buildings are filled with street rods, customs, muscle cars, and trucks.
Open to pre-'73 vehicles, participants get entry into the show, a dash plaque, goodie bag, and the best parking on the grounds. Awards are given away each day, including a pair of plaques from Street Rodder.
With great weather, a cool collection of cars, lots of vendors, and good music by live bands, this year's GNRS Drive-In was like going to a rod run and having a car show break out. And there wasn't a skeptic on the grounds.

WASHINGTON, D.C. (WUSA) -- It's a triple whammy holiday season for a lot of charities this year.
The fiscal cliff... the potential end of the charitable tax deduction... talk of the US slipping back into recession -- all have charities worried about how they'll take care of the people who depend on them.
Food & Friends delivers more than one million hot meals a year from its kitchens in Northeast DC. Thousands of HIV and cancer patients depend on the charity for healthy food to help their bodies fight back. "This is all bad news, particularly at this time of year," says Food & Friends Executive Director Craig Shniderman.
Food & Friends fears this could be the last good season of giving.
Just the talk is hurting -- of budget cuts and eliminating the tax deduction for charitable donations. "Everything seems to be concerning," says Shniderman. "And if I'm feeling concerned, the donors are feeling concerned. And that's not good for charitable giving."
Food & Friends has a total annual budget of almost $9-million.
Almost half of that comes from individual donations and from government funding. So this whole debate could hit almost half of Food and Friends budget.
Seniors who get hot lunches from Meals on Wheels are worried too.
Local Meals on Wheels charities deliver about 365 million lunches a year. The national association says the White House budget proposed for next year could force it to cut 22 million of those meals -- and the automatic cuts if there's no budget deal would cut another 17 million meals. "Oh we're very concerned about this," says Robert Herbolsheimer of the Meals On Wheels Association of America.
The charities are fighting the tax changes, and hoping people will keep giving out of the goodness of the hearts -- and not just for a tax deduction.

This week's installment of HDNet Fights Video Vault, our weekly
fight-of-the-week feature, is the result of the latest HDNet-televised Xtreme Fighting Championships event.
The March 19 event, "XFC 10: Night of Champions," featured two title fights, including former UFC fighter Junior Assuncao vs. John Mahlow for a lightweight championship.
Each week HDNet and MMAjunkie.com release a new and exclusive fight
from the ever-growing HDNet Fights video library. Stunning knockouts,
slick submissions, shocking finishes and legendary brawls are the norm
for this weekly feature.
Assuncao vs. Mahlow is now exception.
Assuncao, brother to current WEC featherweight contender Raphael Assuncao, entered the bout with a 9-4 record and was looking for his fifth win in six fights. Standing in his way, though, was veteran Mahlow (12-11), a longtime fighter for the XFC, a Florida-based promotion that's used a grassroots-marketing campaign and inexpensive ticket prices to consistently draw crowds of 10,000 or more.
Would Assuncao pick up yet another win and stake claim to a title, or would Mahlow pull off the upset and earn one of his biggest wins to date?
Check out the embedded clip for the answer.
Each week MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) and HDNet Fights (www.hdnetfights.com) team up for "HDNet Fights Vault," which offer a new and unique video from the organization's ever-growing fight library.

In our company we are currently installing zimbra open source edition (in a future update to Network Edition).
The question I have is if the version "open source edition" we can set the Blackberry to pop3 (without synchronization)? I think the connector is only needed for sincronization .. is that correct?

My wife an I are goin to Cozumel an taking a three day diving course and want to buy a shorty or full dive suit that will be comfortable and effective for what we are doing
Hello Shaun, congratz on taking the open water scuba class. If you are looking for a lightweight dive skin for your trip I would suggest to you the Henderson 17oz Superior Polyolefin Dive Skin Jumpsuit web link: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-44/010629/Henderson-17oz-Superior-Polyolefin-Dive-Skin-Jumpsuit.html. The lycra skin you are asking about will not give you any type of warmth protection from the water. The one I am suggesting to you does have the sun protection and will also give you about 2mm of warmth. If you have any other questions or would like to place an order please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
I am very interested in buying a wet suit to keep me warm in a small lake ,so I can get in water early in may so it keeps me warm also want to order some scuba diving items....I want a light weight5xl wet suit to start w/so it keeps me warm looking to spend under 200.00 to start
Hi! Will this suit keep me warm while snorkeling in La Paz this December? The water temperature is supposed to be between 65-75 degrees.
what size would I need if I am 55 and weight between 185-190
Hello Gail, first off when you are sizing a wetsuit/dive skin the two most important measurements will be your chest/bust and waist. Then height will be a secondary measurement and weight you throw out the window. Weight has nothing to do with the sizing of a wetsuit. If you have any other questions or would like to place an order please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
Have a Henderson Thermoprene 3 mm full wetsuit that I bought from you all 2 years ago. A quality product and works very well. Old age and a bum shoulder make it hard to get in and out of. Seeking advise about buying a Henderson 3 mm Thermoprene Core Warmer and a wetskin. Put on the wet skin first and then the Core Warmer over it. I easily get cold at 77 years of age. Thank you. Any ideas most welcome. Terry
I am going to the Galapagos Island in August. Looking at the Henderson Lycra Dive Skin Jumpsuit. I have a Promate now. I am approximately 56 weight 160. Looking at the chart, I see a Large would be the size. Is this correct?
Hello Re, Thank you for your inquiry! I have checked the sizing chart and based on the information you have provided, I am recommending the Medium Henderson Lycra Dive Skin Jumpsuit per the Sizing Chart. http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-44/010599/Henderson-Lycra-Dive-Skin-Jumpsuit.html If you would like to place an order or have questions about our products, please contact one of our certified Dive Instructors at SCUBA.com by calling 800-247-2822 <> 949-221-9300 or e-mail us at: firstname.lastname@example.com
Q #1=In the q&a on the Henderson dive skin part#L807UF Renate asks what the material weight of this suit is ? as Renate uses an example that some dive skins are noted to be 6oz. Dive instructor Bill says this 17oz dive skin (about 2 mm) is also a 6oz weight material. That being said which would be the correct answer ? Is the Henderson 17oz not a thicker material than the 6oz ? Q #2 = I see you also sell a .5mm wetsuit and would like to know how much thicker , warmer etc. , would that suit be than the 6oz or 17 oz dive skin ? Look forward to hearing back from you so I know as Im thinking on purchasing a little heavier skin than the Bare 6oz I bought from scuba.com in 2012. Thank you. Norm
Hi Norm, Here is an answer to your first question: A 6oz weight material provides no warmth in the water it helps slide your suit on easier, protects from jelly fish stings and from UV sun rays. The 17 oz has all the same features as the 6oz. However, the 17oz gives you warmth comparable to the warmth of a 2mm suit (without adding buoyancy) typically these have a fuzzy inner lining and are much thicker than the 6oz. Here is an answer to your second question: The .5mm is about as thick as a t-shirt my guess for ounces would be something in the range to 10-13 ounces. The .5mm wetsuit provides warmth however you lose the feature of using it to slide on another suit. One of the big things I like about the 17oz suits is they help way more sliding on another suit with providing additional warmth and very easy to put on. One of the big things I like about the .5mm neoprene suits is that they dry way faster than the 17oz suits because the .5mm suits are made of neoprene. The 17oz suits are as easy as putting on the lycra suits with the same flexibility however with the .5mm to 1mm suits it requires little more effort to put on and a little less flexibility than the 17oz skin. At this point it's more of your preference. If you are going to be doing multiple dives per day using it as your primary suit it would be nice to have a faster drying neoprene suit but if that's not a consideration you would be very happy with the 17oz suit.
My daughter and I would like to purchase the henderson lycra dryskin jumpsuit for sun protection. Her and I are about 5-9 and weigh around 230-240. Please advise what would be the best way to size the suits. By weight and height or chest, waist and bust line Thanks
I am going on a three month and will be diving at the Great Barrier Reef and The Abel Tasman Park. Yeaa... I want to buy a Diving Skin and the Henderson Lyrica Dive Skin Jumpsuit seems like a great product an attractive price. I am concerned about buying the right size because I wont have time to return it and get another one if it doesnt fit. I weight 190 lbs. and I am 511" tall. What size should I order? Also, some of the reviews of other dive skins products might be uncomfortable and tight around the neck. Has anyone experienced this probnlem. Your feedback will be appreciated. Thanks Jim
I am interested in one of your diving suits. I weigh about 127, and am 5 ft. 6 in. tall. I will use it in the tropics of Ecuador, so what millimeter thickness do you recommend. Thanks.
Hello Joanna, the suit that I would suggest for you if you are looking for a little added warmth is the Henderson 17oz Superior Polyolefin Dive Skin Jumpsuit web link: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-44/010629/Henderson-17oz-Superior-Polyolefin-Dive-Skin-Jumpsuit.html. If you are just looking for sun protection then this suit will work very well for you.
I am needing a dive suit that will work well in cold water for rescue missions what do you suggest?
I would recommend starting on our cold water wetsuits page found here http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-101/Wet-Suits-Cold-Water-45-60-degrees.html I would recommend the pinnacle or scuba pro brands!
I am looking to buy a moderately priced but good snorkel that prevents water from entering from waves and there are a number of products out there from $15-40$. I am looking for a good product in the $20-30 $. Does anyone have any advise here? Thanks, Jim
Hello Jim, the snorkel I would suggest for you is the XS Scuba Sedona Dry Snorkel web link: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-39/039128/XS-Scuba-Sedona-Dry-Snorkel.html.
Im wondering about the right size to buy. Im 57", weight: 165 lbs, chest: 40" and waist: 36". I guess these suits have to fit tight ? Thanks for any comments.
The waist and chest are the most important measurements for the fit with a suit. Height usually will work even if it is one to two inches short or tall. Weight will depend on the divers body build and is the last measurement to consider. As long as the item is not used in the water you have up to 60 days to refund or exchange it.
Hi again. Asked earlier if this suit would fit someone who is six-foot-eight. Your sizing chart only seems to accommodate men six-foot-two and below. Not precise, but I typically wear 2x or 3x shirts, depending on the company, and I wear 44 wait, 34 inseam pants. Most of my length is in my torso. Thanks
Hello Steve, since you are 6''8" in height that dive skin I would suggest for you is the: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-43/154030/Pinnacle-Inferno-V-skin-Trilaminate-Merino-Wetsuit.html in a size 4XL. Other than your height you would be a size XL in the Henderson dive skin.
How thick is this and what is the "Lycra"? I have Henderson Lycra hood, that has a label showing the material is 90% neoprene and 10% spandex. Its extremely thin but works. Ive seen some light weigh dive skins (without the fuzzy stuff) that look similar. Is this the same material as my "Lycra" hood by Henderson?
I have a 5mm wetsuit looking for a dive skin for extra warmth, to go under my wet suit for cold water, which product do you suggest?
My son, age 14, 58" 130 lbs, waist about 30, always gets chilled after first dive. Thinking of getting him a skin for extra thermal layer. Having anything that would work for his size? Adult charts have him between a small and medium
i want to purchase this wetsuithowever, for the waist measurement should i measure the largest part of the waist (belly) or the actual waist. 2,- i would like to know if i can get a different color than full black - for example -blue suit with any color stripe, yellow suit with any color stripe, pink with any color stripe(for my wife), gloves in blue or any other color, 3,- are they 6 onz, 17 onz, .5 mm, etc. thanks
Typically I like to use the Levi's waist size as my sizing. The manufacturer's will advise not to use pant size, but I've found over the years that Levi's run pretty true in inches to the waist measurement scuba manufacturers use. I've yet to have it be wrong. For the colors, unfortunately the only thing we have to offer is a black base suit with the colored stripe. The stripe color can be yellow, Blue, Green, Pink or Purple.
Hi. I love to snorkel around boston during summer. My dive wet suit is flamboyant and hot in the warmer trampoline resurface were I spend most of the time snorkelling. The water is still cold and I need a skin type wet suit withhold can you help me with suggestions? Thanks
Hello Thomas, the suit you are asking about will not give you any type of thermal protection. If you are looking for a suit that will give you a little warmth then I would suggest the Henderson 17oz Superior Polyolefin Dive Skin Jumpsuit web link: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-44/010629/Henderson-17oz-Superior-Polyolefin-Dive-Skin-Jumpsuit.html.
Does this suit protect you from jeely fish stings, and it doesnt state what mil it is.
Hello Randy, this is a 6oz lycra material. This would not protect you for jellyfish stings. You would need to look at the Henderson 17oz Superior Polyolefin Dive Skin Jumpsuit web link: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-44/010629/Henderson-17oz-Superior-Polyolefin-Dive-Skin-Jumpsuit.html. That will get you the same thickness as a 2mm wetsuit.
First time I asked this question, my sons height was translated into 64". Hes 76" tall and weighs 150 with 29" waist. What size should we get home XL or XXL? Thanks.
Hello Margaret, When you are sizing a wet suit or dive skin the two most important measurements are your chest/bust and waist. Height is a secondary measurement and weight is the last measurement you would take into account. I would suggest a size XLarge for your son.

Is there such thing as diving suits that keep all water out? If so where would I find them?
It''s called a dry suit. http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-19/Dry-Suits-Dry-Suits.html
Do you have suits for children, age 11?
Hello Judy, here is the link to all of the kids suits: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-65/Kidz-Gear-Neoprene-and-Skins.html. When you are sizing a suit the two most important measurements are your chest and waist. Height is a secondary measurement and weight is the last measurement you take into account.
I currently own a 7mm aqualock wetsuit. Have lots of trouble struggling in and out of the suit. Would this help. Not as concerned about the warmth as in ease of getting in and out of wetsuit. Wear a large on the wetsuit, should I get the large here as well
Does this suit offer a high UPF? I am sun allergic and need to know its sun protection rating. If not, which light weight, non-neoprene and non-latex suit should I consider? Im 5 4" and weigh 130 lbs. Thank you
I am going to Fiji and just want a lightweight .5 mm skin for a little warmth as well as rash guard. Do not want or need a wetsuit. What do you advise?
i have free access to a cold pool at a univ. they keep it cold for the swim teamswimming heats them up. i am not an athlete. i only want to swim for exercise, yet am not motivated to swim in a cold pool. outdoor pools (midwest area) dont heat up comfortably until mid-july. i want to swim for exercise, staying warm in a cold pool. i have a girlfriend that feels the same about pool temps, but is not disabled. what type of suit would you recommend for us, for year-round swimming in a cold pool, & for those on a retirement budget?
Hello Kelly, if you are looking to add some warmth to your body in a cold pool then I would suggest the: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-44/010629/Henderson-17oz-Superior-Polyolefin-Dive-Skin-Jumpsuit.html. The lycra dive skin will not give you any type of warmth since it is just a lycra thin material.
I am going on a trip to Cancun in late September 2014. I will be snorkeling and wanted a suit that would keep me warm along with providing cover so that I dont get burned. What would you recommend? It looks like by weight I will need a 6X size suit.
Im looking at the dive skins and I know chest then waist then height ,if so would I not have a lot of extra material ? Using the size chart I need a 3xl chest and a lg waist but Im only 58" . What size do I buy?
I need a dive skin but I dont know what size to get. My wet suit is a XL. Im 56" an my 6pk has changed into a 44" keg. But my waste is 38" and Im short. Please let me know if I need a XL or 2X. Thanks
im looking for a new dive skin and trying to determine the size. my issue is that while my chest and waist are fairly small, i have an impressive butt and large thighs. the size chart for this dive skin does not mention the hip size. my current skin is stretched out around the hips and has a hole in the crotch. (i dont know what size i ordered. i believe its a neosport m.) my hip measurement is about 41". even though height and weight dont matter heres those measurements anyway: 55" and 137lbs. what size skin should i order?
Im going snorkeling and kayaking in Belize in December and not sure if I need a dive skin or what. I went to Honduras in may to dive and wore a .5mm wetsuit and was comfortable (rented). Suggestions? Im also concerned about sun protection. Should I layer? Thanks! KS
The only thing the lycra skin is going to offer you is sun protection. There would be no thermal properties to it at all. It would depend upon your tolerance to cooler water. Typically anywhere in the caribbean in the wintertime we recommend a 3mm suit.
How does one use their bladder often. In other words, hum,..........how does releive themselves?
We have been using this suit for several years and we love it. I am curious if it has a UPF rating? My boyfriend is currently on medication that requires good sun protection and we are trying to decide if the suit is enough. Thanks
going to the bahamas in marchwater temps will be in low 70s...looking for a product that will make it more comfortable in the cooler water while snorkeling...
This product does not have a lot of thermal properties to it. For a little more warmth take a look at the Henderson 17oz Superior Polyolefin Dive Skin Jumpsuit found here: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-44/010629/Henderson-17oz-Superior-Polyolefin-Dive-Skin-Jumpsuit.html or you could go with a warm water shorty wetsuit found in our wetsuit section.

Luke Hudson retires
Today we recognize an all-around good guy, Luke Hudson, who announced his retirement on Thursday. Hudson made the Royals in 2006 after signing as a minor league free agent in March. He struggled early in 2006 before regaining his form while with Omaha. Hudson returned to Kansas City and became the Royals Pitcher of the Month in July and August, finishing his season with a 7-6 mark.
Our favorite Luke Hudson memory is from September 4, 2006, which happened to be Star Wars Night at "The K." The force was with Luke as he fanned 10 New York Yankees in front of a large crowd. Luke is one of just 27 Royals pitchers to have at least one game with 10 strikeouts.
Hudson pitched in just one Major League game after 2006 as he continued to have problems with his right shoulder. He hoped to return in 2009, but the shoulder injury lingered.
Luke became a fan favorite in his time with the Royals…he took part in community activities including Operation Blessing, Royals Caravan, and Royals FanFest. We'll miss Luke and we wish him the best in his future endeavors!

Chloe Sevigny's pieces for her new collaboration with Opening Ceremony are available for pre-order now. The collection is really a line of basics: a few different shapes in the same dependable patterns (namely leopard, houndstooth, paisley and polka dot), with enough variation that any figure could find a complimentary frock. There's also accessories: shoes, bags, hats, shades… but I'm kind of fixated on these awesome, versatile dresses. And yeah, they're not cheap, but that navy polka dress is never going to look dated or inappropriate, either.

|Christmas is midpoint for foreign exchange student
|Written by Jes-c Brandt
Since her arrival to Holyoke in August, Switzerland native Severine Barras has been welcoming new experiences with open arms. The recent holiday season has been especially full of chances to explore American culture.
Thanksgiving is, of course, a distinctly American holiday. Barras noted there is no such holiday in Switzerland, and it was interesting to be a part of the Elliotts' Thanksgiving Day. The whole season has a different feel, she added, because Christmas plans start so early in America.
Also new to her this season has been the Holyoke weather. Barras noted her hometown does get cold and snowy, but the big shock has been the wind here. "Sideways snow" has been something that takes getting used to. But at least she got the white Christmas she was dreaming of, she joked.
Christmas itself is a holiday Barras enjoys in Switzerland, but experiencing it with the Elliotts in America was still different and exciting. The time surrounding Christmas Day, for example, differs greatly between the two countries. In Switzerland she is used to working up to Christmas Eve, but she has appreciated the extra days of vacation here.
While Barras enjoys cooking at home, this Christmas she really got into the spirit baking holiday treats with her host family. The Elliotts also made a trip to choose and cut their own Christmas tree and traveled to spend time with nearby family, giving Barras a genuine American Christmas experience.
Despite all the new experiences, Christmas in America is also without some traditions Barras is used to back home. In Switzerland, she and her family attend a large Christmas mass every year. The small Holyoke service, she noted, just couldn't compare to the gathering of thousands she is accustomed to.
Barras noted her Holyoke Christmas experience was also without a celebration she had always taken for granted: Santa Claus Day. In Switzerland on Dec. 6 the German parts of the country celebrate Santa's coming out of the forest and the French population honors St. Nicholas coming from Heaven for Christmas. Having both German and French ties, Barras has had her share of both traditions.
One interesting thing Barras noticed upon coming to Holyoke was the large number of German families in the area, and some of the German Christmas traditions are still evident during the holidays here.
Much to Barras' surprise, some of the most striking Christmas differences were the small things. Take stockings, for example. American families think nothing of hanging socks at Christmastime, but that is one tradition that makes Barras laugh just thinking about it. To her, stockings are a thing of movies and stories, and they symbolize a typical American Christmas.
During a time of year with a heavy emphasis on family, Barras could not shake the feeling that she was missing out on time at home, but she is grateful for a host family that she gets along with and makes her feel welcome for Christmas.
Now that Christmas has passed, Barras reflects on her academic year abroad. It's hard to believe her time in Holyoke is already half gone, and the second half semester is sure to go by even faster, she observed.
"I don't know if I should be happy or sad," Barras said. On the one hand, she will soon see friends and family she hasn't seen for months. But on the other hand, she has made friends in Holyoke that she doesn't look forward to leaving. She has a limited time left in America, and Barras knows she needs to make the most of it, spending time with her host family and friends, improving her English and getting all that she can out of life in a new culture.
In the coming months, Barras will continue school and HHS basketball, and she plans to participate in the spring musical. Additionally, she looks forward to traveling throughout the United States. Planned destinations include California, Washington D.C. and Cleveland, Ohio.
Commenting on her time already spent in America, Barras noted it has been a period of great growth and learning. It's an entirely different life here, and she is thankful for the chance to live with a new family, go to a new school and spend time in a rural setting.

Hi, I'd like to get the community's thoughts on the hardware level needed for this deployment. It is for a local govt office/ law enforcement.
Network install, Pro version
50 users, outlook integration, all users also have a blackberry, iphone or droid
Planning on Ubuntu install, not VM, a dedicated server, need email archiving
I'm considering a server with a decent quad code xeon w/ 12meg cache, 12 GB ram, 1TB x3 in raid 5, redundant nic and PSU.
Don't want any slowdowns, would rather oversize somewhat than undersize and ever have hardware be the bottleneck.:cool:
Thanks in advance!

Once you are asleep, the doctor will make a small incision in the groin area or in the scrotum. The testicle is pulled up from the scrotal sac. The cord that connects the testicle to the scrotum is clamped and sutured. The testicle is removed. Absorbable stitches will be used to close all incision areas.
A prosthetic testicle is sometimes placed into the scrotum. This can be done at the time of the surgery or at a later date.
About one hour per testicle
You will not feel any pain during the procedure. The doctor will give you pain medicine when you wake up.
The staff may provide the following care to make you more comfortable and help your recovery:

Column: Writing on the Wall
Forget about 50 — I'm just looking for one good shade of grey
Well tie me down and tickle me silly! You'd think I could find one good shade of grey in the hair color aisle — but alas, there's no "Silver Siren," or "Greyhound Gorgeous," or even "Snow One Like You." It seems that there's no market for those of us who want to go the way of Grandma Moses or even the funky and fabulous Jamie Lee Curtis.

OK Mary - Let me know how it goes. Although, I never went the blonde route, I find I have to color my hair once a month to retain that glorious brownish red, that you remember me as. At the end of the third week, I am crazed about all the gray coming through. So who knows, maybe you'll convince me to begin a new trend (and save lots of money). When we finally get together, I just hope we all recognize each other. Donna

Well nature played a trick on me and my hair. Rather Than gray or silver and similar to dear old dad my
natural light brown bottle helped Blondel has lost all pigment and is now flat black
Dare I tell you I don't look good in a shade that is suspiciously similar to dark dark gray?!
On the plus side my deep red doesn't need to be reapplied as often
Blondest may have more fun but red is seriously cool!

Just two days before the general election, President Barack Obama made his case to 13,500 people packed into the University of Cincinnati's Fifth Third Arena and 2,000 in an overflow room.
Obama cast the race in comparisons to the previous two presidents, comparing his policies with those of Bill Clinton and equating Republican challenger Mitt Romney's plans with those of George W. Bush.
"So stay with me then," Obama said. "We've got ideas that work, and we've got ideas that don't work, so the choice should be pretty clear."
With less than 48 hours before polls open on Election Day, a Reuters/Ipsos daily tracking poll had Obama and his Republican challenger locked in a statistical dead heat. However the same poll showed Obama with a slight edge in Ohio, up 48 percent to Romney's 44 percent.
Obama touted his first-term accomplishments, including ending the war in Iraq; ending Don't Ask Don't Tell, the policy preventing homosexuals from serving openly in the military; and overhauling the country's health care system.
"It's not just about policy, it's about trust. Who do you trust?" the president asked, flanked by a sea of supporters waving blue "Forward" signs.
"Look, Ohio, you know me by now. You may not agree with every decision I've made, Michelle doesn't always agree with me. You may be frustrated with the pace of change … but I say what I mean and I mean what I say."
Nonpartisan political fact-checker PolitiFact on Nov. 3 took a look at Obama's record on keeping his campaign promises from 2008. The group rated 38 percent as Kept, 16 percent Compromised and 17 percent Broken.
Twice during his speech the president was interrupted by audience members shouting from the stands.
The first was a man on the balcony level of the arena interrupted, shouting anti-abortion slogans and waving a sign showing mutilated fetuses before being dragged out by about five law enforcement officers. Both were drowned out by supporters.
Music legend Stevie Wonder opened the rally for Obama, playing a number of his hits, opening up "Superstition" with a refrain of "on the right track, can't go back."
Wonder discussed abortion policy between songs and urged Ohioans who had not already voted to do so either early on Monday or Election Day.
So far, 28 percent of Ohio voters have already cast their ballots. CNN reports that those votes favor Obama 63/35, according to public polling.
Meanwhile on Sunday, Romney campaigned before an estimated crowd of 25,000 in Pennsylvania, according to the Secret Service.
Political rallies always draw a number of the loyal opposition, and this late-evening appearance was no different. Only five people protested near the line to the arena, but what they lacked in number they attempted to make up for in message.
One large sign read "Obama: 666" and another "Obama is the Beast," alluding to a character in the Christian Biblical book of Revelation.
A man who only identified himself as Brooks carried a large anti-abortion sign that showed pieces of a dismembered fetus.
"I'm here to stand up for the innocent blood that has been shed in this land to the tune of 56 million," Brooks said. He said he was opposed to the politics of both major party presidential candidates.
"I pray for Barack Obama because his beliefs are of the Antichrist, just like Romney," Brooks said.
Brooks said his message for those in line was for them to vote for Jesus — not on the ballot, but through their actions and through candidates that espoused Christian beliefs.
"Obama is not going to change things, Romney is not going to change things," Brooks said. "In the last days there are many Christs, but not the Christ of the Bible. The Christ of the Bible is not for killing children, is not for homosexual marriage."
Vice President Joe Biden was in town over the weekend. During the stop, he outlined "fundamental differences" between President Barack Obama's campaign and Mitt Romney's campaign. Specifically, he criticized the Romney-Ryan plan of turning Medicare into a voucher system. The visit also unveiled a new fake, pointless controversy in the media when a female biker almost sat on Biden's lap.
Secretary of State Jon Husted backed down on telling county boards of elections to not begin implementing in-person early voting for the weekend and Monday before Election Day. On Aug. 31, a federal judge ruled Husted must enact in-person early voting for the extra days. Following the case, Husted sent out Directive 2012-40 ordering county boards of elections to not enact in-person early voting rules until the court case granting extra hours was appealed and re-ruled on. The judge responded to the directive by asking Husted to explain himself in court. But Husted backed down by sending out Directive 2012-42, which rescinds Directive 2012-40. Republicans have consistently attempted to block more voting hours in the past few months, citing racial politics and costs.

Criminals might face stiffer penalties for gun-related violations due to a new Butler County policy. Critics say the policy will cost the taxpayer more money.The Ohio Supreme Court ruled Thursday that foreclosure sale notices cannot be distributed via websites. The court said institutions have to notify customers more directly.
The Enquirer shined some light into its paywall model in an editorial by CEO Margaret Buchanan yesterday. In the editorial, Buchanan acknowledges the newspaper's duty to "watchdog journalism" to keep organizations and people in check.Cincinnati web designers were quite busy in 2011.
The Ohio Board of Education is meeting today and tomorrow. The agenda seems pretty packed, but it's possible the board could release more details about the search for state superintendent at the meeting. The board will consider how to transition into the third grade reading guarantee recently passed into law by the Ohio legislature and Gov. John Kasich.
An ammonia leak caused an evacuation at a food processing plant yesterday.
A pizza owner in Florida really loves Obama. Florida is considered a major swing state in the presidential election. However, the race may not be as close as the media's fairness machine seeks to make it seem. Recent aggregate polling at FiveThirtyEight and RealClearPolitics is moving heavily in Obama's direction in swing states and the national level. That could be attributed to volatility caused by political conventions, but the trend favoring Obama has been consistent for some time now.
The Romney campaign flip-flopped on Obamacare only to flip-flop back in a matter of hours. The campaign has been repeatedly criticized for lacking substance — much to the apathy of both Romney and Ryan — and this does not help.
Popular Science scientifically analyzed why former President Bill Clinton is so good at giving speeches.
Faced with the choice of raising property taxes or funding senior and mental health services at their current levels, the Hamilton County Board of County Commissioners voted on Wednesday to approve a ballot measure that would effectively cut tens of millions of dollars from those services if passed by voters.
"It seems wrongheaded for us to ask citizens to pay more in taxes when their homes are worth less, when costs have gone up in their households and when in many cases their paychecks are down," said Board President Greg Hartmann. "So we need to hold the line on those property taxes."
The tax rate would be held at the levels passed by voters in 2008, which would be an effective reduction due to declining property values. If Hamilton County voters approve the levies in November, senior services would see a $7 million reduction in funding over the next five years — down to $97 million from $104 million — while funding for mental health services would fall $17 million from $187 million to $170 million, Hartmann said.
The money funds services such as meals on wheels, in-home care for seniors, counseling and drug and alcohol addiction and treatment services.
The board's sole Democrat — Commissioner Todd Portune — made the symbolic gesture of submitting an alternate proposal which would have funded services at the levels providers had requested, but it failed without support from either of the board's two Republican members.
Portune's resolution would have increased property taxes by $5 for every $100,000 the property was worth. He said voters should be given the option to shoulder the additional tax burden. He later voted in favor of Hartmann's resolution, saying the worst thing that could happen would be for voters to approve no levy.
Commissioners also approved a resolution to formally review all healthcare services provided by the county in hopes of saving money by eliminating any that were duplicated at the federal level under the healthcare overhaul.
Hartmann said he didn't come to the decision to keep the levies at the current rate lightly and pledged to work with the recipients to manage the reduction.
Many of those providers appeared at three public hearings held in the last month and with near unanimity asked commissioners to approve the increased rates — which would have kept funding even by countering the money lost from decreased property values.
Patrick Tribbe, president and CEO of the Hamilton County Mental Health and Recovery Services Board, didn't outline specific cuts the agency would undertake, but told reporters after the commissioners' vote that he would spend the next six months planning for the start of the next fiscal year, when the cuts would take effect.
The Tax Levy Review Committee had recommended that the property tax rate remain flat instead of increasing. It suggested that service providers reduce their administrative costs and find areas to increase efficiency.
Many of the providers who spoke at the public hearings said they had already cut administrative costs about as deeply as they could and had very little room for to cut further.
Northern Ohio counties are starting to receive $19 million from Cleveland casino tax revenue. Cincinnati and Hamilton can expect a similar revenue boon next year when the Horseshoe Casino opens on Feb. 2013. Of course, the casino (and its revenue) could have been coming this year, but Gov. John Kasich blocked construction last year to protect his tax plan.
The Enquirer over the weekend did an investigative piece on ER "superusers" — individuals who can sometimes cost the health-care system as much as $1.3 million due to a lack of health insurance. Hospitals have said that this "charity care" could be curtailed by Obamacare's Medicaid expansion and save the state money, but Kasich claims the Medicaid expansion is too costly for the state.
The Ohio Board of Regents is considering banning smoking on all public
campuses. Smoking is already banned in buildings, but health concerns
may lead to a bigger ban.

Child poverty and its causes will be one of the main focuses of the conference. Nearly 15 million children in the United States, or 21 percent of all children, live in families below the federal poverty level, according to the National Center for Children in Poverty (NCCP). A study from the NCCP found Cincinnati has the third-worst children's poverty rate at 48 percent. Only Detroit and Cleveland were worse, with 53.6 percent and 52.6 percent, respectively.
"We're going to look at all the range of policies and practices and the impact of those and what we can do," CDF President Marian Wright told WVXU today. "It's going to be a real teach-in on what we must do to move forward and stop the move backwards, which I think we're in the midst of."
The conference will also look at education issues. It seeks to shine light on the issue of the achievement gap between the poor and non-poor and racial disparities. A 2011 analysis by the National Center for Education Statistics found black and Hispanic students are behind their white peers by 20 test-points in math and reading tests provided by the National Assessment of Educational Progress. The difference equates to about two grade levels.
The conference will also look at child health care services, zero-tolerance discipline policies in schools and tools and programs that can be used to improve the lives of struggling children.
Anyone is free to register at CDF's website to join the conference. Experts, doctors and activists will also be there.
During a midnight screening of The Dark Knight Rises in Aurora, Colorado last night, a gunman walked into a theater, threw tear gas, and opened fire. Police identified James Holmes as the suspect in the shooting. Twelve were killed and at least 50 were wounded. On Twitter, one witness lamented that "there is no dark knight, no hero, that could save us from anything like this."
Cincinnati Police Chief James Craig will learn later this summer if he'll be required to undergo additional training and take the state police exam. Craig and his attorneys yesterday told the Ohio Peace Officer Training Commission about his 36 years of policing experience.

First giant mirrors, then volcanoes. Now, scientists want to use plankton to help fight global warming.
The George W. Bush Presidential Library denied a request by a Democratic super PAC for documents related to Sen. Rob Portman's work in the George W. Bush administration. The library says it is not subject to the Freedom of Information Act and that all are welcome to see the documents in 2014. The super PAC, American Bridge 21st Century, has been researching GOP candidates as Mitt Romney moves closer to choosing a running mate.
"When you look at the roster of V.P. candidates, each of them is significantly flawed," American Bridge senior adviser Ty Matsdorf said in a statement. "For Portman, it is his calamitous record on fiscal issues while working at the Bush White House. It shouldn't be a shock that he is going to want to keep that under wraps for as long as possible, but unfortunately it's pretty hard to hide a record as terrible as that."

Facebook has created a new "find friends nearby" function that will allow users to see friends and people they don't know who are at events or social gatherings. From some Facebook engineer's comments on the story:
I built Find Friends Nearby with another engineer for a hackathon project. While it was originally called 'Friendshake', we settled on 'Find Friends Nearby' for launch (the URL was a little bit of a homage to the previous iteration).
For me, the ideal use case for this product is the one where when you're out with a group of people whom you've recently met and want to stay in contact with. Facebook search might be effective, or sharing your vanity addresses or business cards, but this tool provides a really easy way to exchange contact information with multiple people with minimal friction.
HBO's The Newsroom premiered last night, and this guy at the Toronto Star said it kind of sucked while the New York Times says CNN could learn something from it.
Jobs, jobs, jobs. That is what Republican House Speaker John Boehner said would be priority No. 1 for Republicans after sweeping the House of Representatives and many state legislatures in 2010. This, Republicans said, was why they were elected: People wanted to see changes in the economy fast.
But, apparently, there was one other priority.
Almost immediately after coming into office in 2011, Virginia Republicans set the national stage for vital women's health issues. House Bill 1 — the first bill Virginia Republicans chose to take on — was a personhood bill, a bill that define life beginning at conception. Not only would the bill have banned abortion, it would also have banned the birth control pill, which sometimes prevents birth by stopping the implantation of a fertilized egg.
An impartial observer might wonder why a personhood bill would be a top Republican priority. After all, the same election that put all these Republicans in power also had a personhood bill overwhelmingly rejected in Mississippi — a state so socially conservative that 46 percent of Mississippi Republicans want to make interracial marriage illegal, according to a recent poll from Public Policy Polling.
Nonetheless, this was the issue Virginia Republicans decided to give serious attention. In an economy with a 9 percent unemployment rate at the time, this was the most important issue to Virginia Republicans.
Ohio wasn't much luckier with its crop of Republicans. Five months after inauguration, the Ohio House passed its "heartbeat" bill, or H.B. 125. To this day, it's the most radical anti-abortion bill in the country. Not only would it ban abortion when a fetal heartbeat is detected, but the bill makes no exceptions for rape, incest or life-threatening circumstances.
Ohio and Virginia were not alone. Republicans were pushing anti-abortion, anti-contraception bills all around the nation. Pennsylvania, Kansas, Mississippi and Texas all made national headlines with their own bills. In more than 20 states, bills have been introduced to restrict insurance coverage of abortions, according to ABC News. At the federal level, Republicans have made funding for Planned Parenthood a top issue time and time again, and insurance companies covering contraception recently became such a big issue that the White House had to step in.
So much for keeping the government out of health care. The same political party that clamored for small government now couldn't wait to regulate women's health care. Apparently, the economy is too much for the government to handle, but every woman's uterus is fair game.
There has been some backlash. After Virginia tried to pass a bill that would force doctors to give patients seeking abortion a transvaginal ultrasound, women's health advocates in states across the nation organized protests, leading to governors and state legislatures beginning to back down in their rhetoric. Even Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell, a Republican who originally supported the transvaginal ultrasound bill, has been downplaying his involvement in Virginia's anti-abortion, anti-contraception bills.
Now, Mitt Romney, the likely GOP nominee for president, is facing some of the backlash. In a recent Gallup poll, women came out severely against Romney. In the category of women under 50, Obama held 60 percent of voters, while Romney held only 30 percent. That's right, Obama now leads with women under 50 by a two-to-one margin.
But while that may stop some rhetoric, the bills and laws are still coming forward. The Ohio heartbeat bill is still being pushed by some Republicans in the Ohio Senate, and a personhood initiative could show up in Ohio's 2012 ballot after a stamp of approval from Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted. Mississippi also plans to reintroduce its personhood initiative in the 2012 ballot, and other states are beginning to pass around petitions for their own initiatives as well.
In the end, one is left to wonder what could stop social conservatives. Public backlash and poor polling don't seem to be enough to stop the Republican war on women, and in some cases it might have actually emboldened them.

Bean Burrito = Good Night's Sleep?!
by Sheryl Stewart
posted Jul 27 2009 12:15PM
I'm still having a hard time believing that a burrito will help anyone sleep at night, but a NYC dietician says it does! The NY Daily News featured
an article today
that lists the best and worst foods for a good night's sleep. Click the link above if you want to read the whole article. Since we'll need all the help we can get sleeping this week (especially those of us without AC).....I'll post the highlights below!
Foods for Sleep: The Good
Bean Burritos
Carbohydrates are "calming foods" says Annemarie Colbin, the founder and CEO of the Natural Gourmet Institute, a health-minded culinary school on W. 21st Street, because they help the body increase its absorption of the sleep-friendly neurotransmitter called serotonin. Like all dieticians, she recommends choosing nutrient-packed whole grains like beans, barley, brown rice and whole wheat bread over refined carbs like pasta, but all can help you reach a sounder snooze.
A Turkey Sandwich
That Thanksgiving joke about turkey and tryptophan is true: The amino acid – it's found in poultry, eggs, soy and seafood -- gets turned into serotonin in your body, says Mary Jane Detroyer, a Manhattan registered dietician and exercise physiologist. Tofu, scrambled eggs and fish are smarter sleep choices than beef or pork, and you can always follow it up with that old standby, the glass of warm milk: Yes, it has tryptophan, too.
Like pasta and brown rice, sugars are also carbohydrates, says Colbin, and they can help calm you down before bedtime. She recommends sating your sweet tooth with natural, nutrient-rich desserts like bananas and dates.
Tofu and Veggie Stir-Fry
Heavy, high-fat, protein-packed meals are harder for your body to digest, says Detroyer. Eating lighter at night helps you rest, she says, and you'll get more bang for your bedtime buck if you consider the carb and tryptophan quotient of dinner, too. A tofu stir-fry loaded with veggies is filling and has both, as does pasta with cheese or scrambled eggs and whole wheat toast.
Two Warm Oatmeal Cookies and Chamomile Tea
Sometimes you need to tell your body it's bedtime, says Heather Bauer, a registered dietician and the founder of Nu-train, a nutrition counseling center in Manhattan: "Create a calming pre-sleep ritual each night," she says, "that you know will help relieve you of the stress from your day." Food can play a part, like carb-friendly oatmeal cookies dunked in a warm, caffeine-free quaff. Chamomile tea, in particular, is known for its soothing qualities
Foods for Sleep: The Bad
Double Chocolate Mousse
An espresso late at night isn't a smart idea for the majority of sleepers. But chocolate and green tea have caffeine too, says Mary Jane Detroyer. "Caffeine takes about six hours to leave your body," she says, so if you know caffeine affects your slumber, end your meal with blueberry pie rather than double dose of chocolate.
Steak Frites
A lot of us eat a small bowl of pasta for lunch, saving the meat and potatoes for dinner. But in terms of sleep, says Annemarie Colbin, we're getting it backwards. Carbs are calming, she says, while proteins in meat provide energy. Suppers high in salt might also keep you up: "It raises your blood pressure," says Colbin, "so then you get more energized."
Pepperoni Pizzas at Midnight
"You don't want to eat a large, heavy, rich meal late at night because that disrupts your sleep," says Detroyer. But going to bed hungry can keep you up too: Go with a lighter snack around 150 to 200 calories with calming properties, she says – like carb-friendly bowls of warm oatmeal or Cheerios and reduced fat milk, or a little hummus and whole wheat pita -- or plan the feast a little earlier in the evening. (She's got plenty of recipe ideas, by the way, at www.maryjanedetroyer.com.)
Three Glasses of Water
Most of us know that alcohol affects the quality of rest, says Heather Bauer, and it "often causes you to awaken in the middle of the night." But the latter can happen if you over-hydrate, too: Drink all that water in the morning, not right before bed.
Super Hot Salsa
Have heartburn? Then skip spicy or irritating foods like chilies, high-acid tomatoes, chocolate and fresh mint, says Bauer, if not altogether, then at least a few hours before bedtime. And if you know your body doesn't react well to garlic, onions or other foods, she says, don't eat them just before your head hits the pillow.
Avoid too much alcohol
While alcohol can send you to sleep, it doesn't help you get the kind of deep sleep you need to let your brain perform essential work on your resting body.
So while a snifter of a good Scotch before you retire each night probably won't rob you of your beauty sleep, there are other drinks that are better at bedtime.

It's not often you see a maths professor reduced to zero on stage and then stuffed into a bag. But this is exactly what happened to Marcus du Sautoy at the Science Museum — and by means of a mathematical argument at that. Only du Sautoy wasn't being himself of course. He was playing the role of X in the new play, X&Y.

Do you have hidden talents in science? Public relations? Working with children? Would you like to determine if you have those talents? Colorado Parks and Wildlife has an opportunity for you, if you like to spend time in the great outdoors and care about our environment and protecting our natural resources.
Volunteer help is needed to increase the public's understanding of conservation and natural resources by serving as a park naturalist. What a great way to earn service learning hours or explore your potential in this field.
The three Colorado State Parks in the Rifle Gap Complex are seeking volunteer park naturalists for the fall and winter months. Volunteers are an integral part of Colorado Parks and Wildlife, and provide amazing support by delivering high-quality services to the public well into the future. Benefits not only include developing your hidden talents, you will add to your self-confidence. And, once you volunteer for 48 hours, you will earn a parks pass to visit any of our 42 state parks. This park pass is transferable to any vehicle as long as you are in the vehicle.
Once my seasonal position ends, I return to volunteer status for the state park system. Over the past few years, I have worked on the education programs for Rifle Gap, written articles for the Colorado Parks and Wildlife newsletter, staffed a special event or two, parked cars and served on several committees at the state level, drafting manuals to establish State Parks Friends' Associations. I have also earned my park pass.
At Rifle Gap, Harvey Gap and Rifle Falls State Parks, naturalists lead hikes, research and create environmental education programs, present programs and answer visitor questions during days and nights. The volunteer naturalists also staff weekend education tables and exhibits at Rifle Falls, greet and answer questions for park visitors or assist at special events.
Volunteer as a park naturalist if you have a passion for interpretation and environmental education. Adults and high school students over the age of 14 can apply. Positions vary from three- to six-hour time slots. Students will need to complete appropriate paperwork for the park system. Volunteers ages 14-17 must also submit a signed parental or guardian approval form.
Or consider making "service to the community" a project for your family. Most of my entire family has been involved in some form or fashion over the years, including my husband, granddaughters, my sister-in-law and niece, my nephew and his friend. I also involve my friends, too. The time is well spent outdoors with your family and friends.
If you are interested in exploring this opportunity or other volunteer opportunities, call Brian Palcer, senior ranger at the Rifle Complex, 625-1607.
Rifle Gap, Rifle Falls and Harvey Gap are managed by Colorado Parks and Wildlife, created with the merger of Colorado State Parks and Division of Wildlife. The agency manages 42 state parks, all of Colorado's wildlife, more than 300 state wildlife areas and a host of recreational programs. For more, go online to www.parks.state.co.us and http://wildlife.state.co.us.
Terry Wise is the summer season park naturalist and volunteer coordinator for the Rifle Gap State Park Complex.
