Tho Fish and Game Commissioners of the State are not in the best of humor over the treatment that UK-V are receiving ut the hand of the ooliticians. They claim that were shoved to one sitli1 for the benelit of certain politicians, and that the members of the Legislature seemed to consider that the commission existed to promote parly patronage. The uio.'t active of the commissioners is Howard 1'. l'rolhinghainr secretary and treasurer. Mr. Fonhingliam is a promi- nent Wall street broker, residing at Mount Arlington, Morris county, and is Mayor of Ilopalcor.g. Like all the cmn- missioniws, he is a man of means, and the time he spends in the commission is spent without thought of compensation. Mr. Frothiniiluun was asked Regarding the situation, and he expressed himself fn-cly: "1 should like to know whether the Board of Fish and Game Commissioni'rs is to be considered a political body or a body devoted purely to the protection of tislTand game in the State of New Jersey. The present Board of Commissioners took ollice on May 29, It is composed of Colonel Georue Pfeiffer, Jr., a merchant of Camdeu; W. Campbell Clark, a manu- facturer of Newark; Parker W. a leading New York lawyer in Summit, and mysell. The board, after electing Col. Pfeifl'er as president and myself as secre- tary and treasurer, decided to conduct the oltice entirely upon business princi- ples, to the best of our ability. "It is, however, the general opinion of sonf members of the Legislature that we should cater to their political wants, and it is a common remark among the members of the Senate and Assembly that they vote this Commission certain sums of money yearly to defray the expenses of wardens, etc., and that they should have the right of appointing such war- dens. emphatically denies that right. We take the stand that we want only men who we feel confident will work for the best interests of the .State, and not merely for the purpose of drawing the salary of a month. Nearly every member of the Legislature recom- mends from one to three men for the ap- pointment of warden, and yet, if we sug- gest to any of these applicants that we are willing to appoint them deputy wardens without salary, not one of them cares to accept the position, and still the deputy warden has exactly the same powers as the warden.''

FINISHING UP THE BILLS, Governor Orlggs Will Sig" a Few Today and Then.File the Others. Governor Griggs is at the State House today, and this afternoon will probably dispose of the legislative bills still in his hanJs. A few of these he will sign, and the others he will file with the State Librarian. Senator Hoffman was at the State House today for the lirst time in seven weeks. The Senator still shows the ell'ects of his illness. Up to the time of going to press the Governor had signed the following bills. Assembly No. 19G, authorizes Boards of Freeholders to appropriate to hospitals for county patients. Assembly 207, authorizes the appoint- ment of Deputy Police Court Clerks in Jersey City and' Newark; Assembly, No. 2S4, provides for a medical examiner for Jersey Gin's Fire Board; Senate, No. llfi, the remaining one of Senator Voor- hees' bills, providing that lawyers in damage suits must file a, written copy ol the contract made with clients and giving the court power to appoint a physician 3 investigate the extent of the injuries eceived by the person bringing suit.

EDWARD EYEHfflS SUSPICIONS, Jone 23d Set hi the Ifeoion High School, OR, BOM 10 MAKE THE ADDRESS, The Maftir Will be Funished by a Chorus and the Ceeiliau Club Composed of Sine Young Interest- Ing Fads and About the Old diatom of Having Supply the Literary Programme. The commencement of the Trenton High School will occur at Tajlor Opera House on June and the occasion will be one of special prominence from tIn- tact that Trenton's new anil greater High School ia now a thing of certainty and will be a malter which will be publicly rejoiced over, "in all probability, upon this occasion. The Rev. J. Richards of the State M. E. Church, will de- liver the address of the evening, and his subject will be "The Public School Idea." The music will be furnished by a chorus from the High School, led by Mr. Charles M. Hatterslej, and by the Ceciliun Glee Club, compose.! of nine ladies of the High School, who organized the early part of the present year, and who, having excellent native ability, together with the advantaze of a considerable amount of musicaUraining, have already attained a high degree of excellence. This Glee Club is composed of Miss Emma Lair, Miss Helen Gill and Miss Minnie Pierce, sopranos: Miss Bessie Dye, Miaa Nellie Andrews and Miss May Han- cock, second sopranos; Miss Jennie Case, Miss Mabel Prediger and Miss Ethel Bond, altos. The accompany 1st is Miss Ada Darlymple. Supervising Principal Gregory will as usual award the diplomas, Commissioners Frank Alliaire and Dr. William A. Clark are the committee in charge of the event and as this year's clas? is a good sized one with an excel- lent record there is no doubt but what a first class showing will be made on com- mencement evening. When the public read that Dr. Boyle will deliver an address, and at the same time fail to read the "many names of class members accompanied with oration titles or (jssa> subjects generally con- nected 'with such an occasion, it will be remembered that in the past few years, so far as the Trenton Hizh school is con- cerned, a complete revolution has taken place in the matter of commencement day exercises. For years, in tact almost "from the time whereof the memory of man runneth not to the it had been the custom to have the members of each outgoing class aid m some manner in providing the interesting features of the programme, and commencement day had to be looked upon as one of the most delightful experiences of a student's life. This appearing before the public to dis- play the results of tha educational work spent upon them was indeed a stimulous to many, if not all, to stay in school until graduation and thus complete the course, and in addition, the 'occasion placed the school members before the public and showed, to some extent at least.what the school could do for its pupils. These were the advantages of the old system, but so many objections were urgedth.it the system was abandoned and today only the valedictorian takes part in the programme and the feature of the enter- tainment is an address by some dis llnguistied orator secured by the com- mittee in charge. This year, as stated, it will be Dr. Boyle. This revolution in commencement pro- grammes took place in 1893, when at the exercises, then held at Taylor Opera House, Professor Robert Ellis Thompson, of Philadelphia, with a profound and in- teresting address, snparceded the class members with their essays and orations and occasional original poems. This perhaps was more edifying, but certainly not more interesting from a point of local interest, and although there was a decided majority who endorsed the change, yet to this day a small but oat-n- est minority deplores it. The fact of, the matter is that there has A Hoy Less Than Sixteen Years of Age Charged With Various Thefts. A boy but 1C. years of age before the court on a charge of grand larceny and two charges of petty larceny is an unu- sual and deplorable occurrence, but that was the state of affairs ut Judge Coutier's Central Police Court this morning. Tin- boy's name is George Beins, and he was committed to await the action of the grand jury in default of bail. The youthful criminal lias an interest- ing history. He was formerly at Samuel K. Wilson's farm, from- which properly, it is alleged he stole a large (juantiu of articles of (liflerunt kinds. 'After that he pilfered a nuanlity of chickens from Charlie Walters in broad daylight. His escapade was the most serious he 1ms indulged so far as known. Ben Walton's horse and wagon was stolen by him and Beans, who then resided on New Willow street, rode oil' with the rig in company with another youth in out not in crime who has not as jet been secured. The couple started oil through Pennsylvania and the young fellow Beabb has just been secured. This theft occur- red in the latter part of April. A feature about the case has been the work of Patrolman Higgins, who for nearly live months has been collectin_ evidence against the boy. The petty larceny charges were at first being worked on by him but later the grand larceny occurred and made the case a more serious one. There are two kinds of Bicycles Columbias, and others. None other is "just as good." E. S. Applegute nornmg on a man who last night en- tered the judge's barber shop on Il.ui- over street. Barber Coulier was indign- ant, hence Judge Coutier became "natit, too, and in order to appease Uis own wrath, na a barber, the judge sent the offender up to the workhouse for six months. The man's name was John a police court character of some promi- nence. At about four o'clock this morn- ing three Associated District messenger boys heard a man In the place, which is next door, and one of them went to notifj Patrolman James Laird, at State and Broad streets. Laird responded and arrested Bell in the shop. When bell said in Court that he went to the shop to a shaie, Judfc-e Coutier exclaimed: What'.' At four o'clock in the morn- I "-UPSS not! At that time, any- how, you could'Dt get in the place. It was locked up. You crawled over transom.

The picnic grounds on Olden avenue, known as Hill's Grove, and which have been one of Trenton's most popular summertime pleasure resorts for will be run this season as heretofore, notwithstanding the announcement made last fall to the contrary, Mr. Hill having reconsidered the decision made at that time.

Edward Everett, of 1223 South Clinton venue, tbis city, 1ms suspicions that the 'Mrs. Everett" who committed suicide n the Colonnade Hotel. New York, last veek, may be the wife of his brother lenry Everett, of Hornerstown, this tale. Mr. Everett wrote yesterday to he police authorities of New York, in- orming them that he might be able dentify the woman. This morning Mr. Everett, who is em- ployed with the Union Cash Register lompany, said his suspicions were .ronsed'by the published discription of the suicide, and were further prompted )y the fact that his brother's wife was at one time employed ih a Boston shirt actory as a forelady. Mr. Everett does not, however, .know that his brother's wife is missing. He has not heard from Ilia brother or the lalter's wife for some Lime. He has written to Hornerstown lo liis brother to ascertain if Harry's wife is home or not, and informing his brother of his suspicions. A Wonderful Escape. George Gale, of this -city, anil H. II. Johnson, of Beverly, had a narrow escape from death yesterday afternoon at Bnrl- ington. They were engaged in pnttins the top-piece on a sixty-toot chimney when a heavy wind storm came up, and a sudden gust blew the scaffolding, upon which the men were at work, from under them. I Gale grasped the of the chimney, but Johnson came down with the scaffold- ing, but escaped with a sprain of Ms right leg and a thorough shaking up. The Fire Department's hook and ladder truck was taken to the scone, and Gale was taken from his perilous position. Hill's Boer is o. k., on tap at Tony's, Noi. 108 and Broad St. been such a diversity of opinion on this point that every conceivable stand has taken by some one or another. In Janu- ary, 1S92, the Commissioners of Education went so fur as to discuss the project of absolutely abolishing the High School commencement, and a resolution to that effect was offered but not passed. Tho general objection to old custom has been that the exhibition of work on com- mencement days did not correctly repre- sent school work, but was "highly doc- to use the phraseology of Super- vising Principal Gregory in an old report The interruption to study attendant upon giving a great portion of time to preparing a paper to be read by a sixteen- year-old girl, which would go over the heads of an audience of intellectual giants, was not considered as time well spent, and this was the main reason for the change, but not the only one. Others were the fact lhat parents were beginning to look upon the expense of graduating a' child as more or less of a nuisance. Class emblems, llowers in profusion, presents innumerable, and, if a girl, a handsome gown, socmed lo be among the necessities of Uie occasion, and tbe expense devolved not only upon graduates and parents, bulalso upon hosts and relatives who sent presents. Two remedies for the latter evil were con- sidered-either to regulate the that such expenses would be neither ne- cessary or possible, or do away with the old custom and after some discussion, whether correctly or not, is, of course, a matter of argument; the commissioners chose the latter course..

Carpenter Reed Says There ia Too Much Disorder In the Myers' Household Next Door. A matter at Police Headquarters this morning was the complaint of Carpenter L. T. Reed, of No. 151 East Rose street, who made a disorderly charge against hia neighbors at No. 153, Henry Myers and wife. Last night, he said, Henry wanted some money to buy a pair of shoes, but hia wife had all the cash. Then commenci'd a pitched battle, lirst of words, and then ol blows. The neigh- bors, Reed says, have put up with this sort uf 'Jung long enough, for it happens nearly every day. He therefore would now swear out "warrants, and try and break the tiling up. The case will be heard tonight. The Stallman Dresser Trunk. DobDms t Large, Hatters. Suit Against Lawyer E. H. Murphy. John Moses and John L.

The best and mest simple and gentle remedy is the Syrup Of Fii's, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Company. if it, was from a blow the first question street soon, was who inflicted it, and the duty of the grand jury was to indict that person. The degroe depends upon whether or noi there was an intention to take life. "Yon are npt a trial continued the justice, "but are only to hear the evi- dence of the State, and determine merely whether there is a probable cause of guilt. If so, you are to Indict." Only one other matter was referred to in the charge, ami that was tue illegal voting of certain parties. The court stated it had been informed that parties deprived of the right of sufferage, not- withstanding the fad, do vote at elec- tions. By law persons convicted of cer- tain offenses are deprived of Una privil- ege of voting, and it afterwards they do so vof, they are guilty of an additional violation of the law, and are subject to fine and imprisonment.

Uppertendom thinks it is too deuced bad that everybody should have taken to ride the bicycle, and say that the practice is getting entirely too common for the swell set to indulge in it longer. That is really too bad. Large numbers of shad were taken early yesterday morning at the various fisheries around Lambertville. As many as 500 were taken in one haul. The large numbers of shad tbis-year in this sectfon is attributed to two reasons. The stock- ing and protecting of the fish by law, and the limiting of the length of the Gloucester nets.

AbstractIntroduction and objectives
To assess the efficacy of cochlear implantation in patients with unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss and associated disabling tinnitus.Methods
Ten patients suffering from severe-to-profound sudden hearing loss and tinnitus in the affected ear received implants. The sample comprised 4 men and 6 women, with a mean age of 42.7 years (range 34–62) at implantation. The severity of the tinnitus was evaluated with the Spanish validated version of the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) and a visual analogue scale. These assessments were obtained before and after implantation.Results
Tinnitus suppression was observed in 2 patients. In 7 cases, we observed an improvement in the THI, in different degrees, and 1 patient remained without changes. Tinnitus worsening was not found in the series studied.Conclusions
Tinnitus reduction following cochlear implantation can be explained by several mechanisms, such as habituation, acoustic masking, direct stimulation of the cochlear nerve and reorganisation of cortical areas. Even though further research is required, cochlear implantation is an effective method for the treatment of disabling tinnitus in patients with severe-to-profound unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss.
ResumenIntroducción y objetivos
Valorar la eficacia del implante coclear en pacientes con hipoacusia súbita unilateral y acúfeno incapacitante asociado.Métodos
Se han implantado 10 pacientes con hipoacusia súbita severa-profunda unilateral y acúfeno asociado, entre los cuales 4 son varones y 6 mujeres, con media de edad a la implantación de 42,7 años (rango: 34-62). Hemos evaluado la severidad del acúfeno mediante el Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) en su versión validada al castellano y una escala analógica visual pre y postimplantación.Resultados
Se ha observado una supresión del acúfeno en dos pacientes. Siete pacientes han experimentado una mejoría del THI en distintos grados y no se han producido cambios en un paciente. No ha habido empeoramiento del acúfeno en ningún caso de la serie estudiada.Conclusiones
La reducción del acúfeno tras implantación coclear se puede deber a varios mecanismos, tales como la habituación, enmascaramiento acústico, estimulación directa del nervio coclear y reorganización de las áreas corticales. Aunque sean precisos más estudios, el implante coclear es un método efectivo para el tratamiento del acúfeno incapacitante en pacientes con hipoacusia súbita severa-profunda unilateral.

Tinnitus is defined as an auditory sensation without an external stimulus. It is a common symptom in patients who are candidates for cochlear implant and has a prevalence between 66% and 88%.1
Numerous studies have shown the suppression of tinnitus by electrical stimulation of the acoustic pathway through a cochlear implant, with a low risk of worsening after implantation.2, 3, 4
A recent, innovative indication with promising results has been the cochlear implant fundamentally to treat the tinnitus in patients with unilateral sensorineural hearing loss and associated disabling tinnitus.5, 6, 7, 8
The purpose of our study was to assess the effectiveness of cochlear implantation in patients with sudden, unilateral, severe-profound hearing loss and associated disabling tinnitus.Methods
We performed a descriptive study with a design including repeated measurements, in which each subject acted as their own control. These subjects were 10 patients included in the study according to the following criteria:
1. Ethical approval by the hospital and the Department of Health.
2. Severe-profound sensorineural hearing loss in the ear to be implanted; disyllabic tests <40% without lip reading at 65dB SPL.
3. Normal hearing or moderate hearing loss in contralateral ear. Disyllabic tests >50% in silence at 65dB SPL in the best conditions, without the aid of lip reading.
4. Degree of disability in Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) >58%.
5. Tinnitus in the ear to be implanted. Onset after sudden idiopathic hearing loss.
6. Failure of prior treatments.
7. Duration of hearing loss <10 years in the ear to be implanted.
8. Duration of tinnitus <3 years.
9. No central source of tinnitus (diabetes, etc.).
Patients were assessed before the intervention using a battery of medical, audiological and psychological tests to determine correct treatment and to establish tinnitus and speech perception ability. The assessment protocol used for the study (Table 1) was based on a set of tests that investigated the involvement of 3 symptoms (tinnitus, hyperacusis and hearing loss). With respect to tinnitus assessment, we carried out a tinnitus test measuring 3 characteristics (timbre, intensity and minimum masking level), along with objective evaluation tests for tinnitus that included an initial evaluation questionnaire, a visual analogue scale9 (VAS) and THI10, 11 through 25 questions designed to measure the disability caused by tinnitus.

As for quantifying the hyperacusis, we carried out the hyperacusis test (HST),12, 13, 14 a numerical scale of discomfort caused by sounds and a list of activities that the patient could not perform secondarily.
The hearing assessment included a complete audiometry with air conduction, bone conduction, logoaudiometry and threshold of discomfort. This last test allowed us to assess the association of tinnitus with hearing loss and thus regulate the prosthesis adequately. We also carried out a tonal and verbal assessment of the prosthesis using headphones, open field without hearing aids and open field with hearing aids.
The study included a total of 10 patients, of which 4 were male and 6 were female, with a mean age at implantation of 42.7 years (range between 34 and 62 years). The mean duration of hearing loss was 3.8 years (range between 1 and 5 years), while the mean duration of tinnitus was 1.5 years (range between 1 and 3 years). Patients presented profound, unilateral sensorineural hearing loss with a mean value of 90dB (range between 83 and 110dB); the right ear was implanted in 5 patients and the left in the remaining 5. We performed a follow-up period ranging between 3 and 18 months. All patients had been implanted and, depending on the degree of their hearing loss, were carriers of a cochlear implant model Freedom (4), Nucleus CI 512 (1) or Nucleus Hybrid L24 (5) (Table 2).

With respect to the assessment of tinnitus (Table 3, Table 4), 3 patients reported a holocranial location, 4 a bilateral location and 3 a unilateral location. Constant tinnitus was identified in all patients; frequencies were low (250–1000Hz) in 4 patients, high (≥5000Hz) in 3, complete frequential in 2 patients and with a value of 2000Hz in 1 patient. The mean intensity of the tinnitus was 4.5dB (range between 4 and 5dB).

|Type of Implant
Patient evaluation was carried out at 1, 3 and 6 months after implant activation. After activation of the cochlear implant, tinnitus retraining therapy (TRT) was applied in those patients who did not show sufficient improvement in tinnitus in the second evaluation after 3 months. This sound therapy used habituation noises through the audio input of the cochlear implant processor.
All participants were scheduled according to a specific method based on tests and trials conducted during a pilot study, in which a tinnitus test was used to calculate the frequency of tinnitus. The electrodes that corresponded to the frequency determined by the tinnitus test were stimulated so as to identify which one was closest to the tinnitus. Once the electrode was identified, the 4 collateral electrodes were given the same levels of T. These 5 electrodes maintained their similar T as if they were acting as a single electrode, but with a greater bandwidth frequency. To determine the C level of the tinnitus areas, we increased the intensity until it equalled that of tinnitus. This C level was also applied to the 4 collateral electrodes. The T and C levels in other areas were determined according to the programming of the standard cochlear implant. We created 4 maps and, after 10 days, 1 of them was maintained as the reference map to start working on the implant programming. The processor configuration was modified on a monthly basis to improve the acceptance of the device and speech understanding.Results
The mean score obtained in the preoperative THI was 72.1%. After cochlear implantation, THI values at 1 and 3 months fell to 27.4% and 14.3%, respectively (Figure 1). In 2 of the 10 patients, we observed complete suppression of tinnitus; in the remaining 8, we observed a significant decrease in its perception.

In relation to the degree of disability according to the THI score (absence of disability: 0%–16%, mild disability: 18%–36%, moderate disability, 38%–56%, severe disability: >58%), 10 patients presented a severe disability prior to cochlear implantation. Three months after surgery, 8 patients presented no disability, 1 patient presented mild disability and severe disability persisted in another patient despite an improvement in THI score.
The VAS showed a reduction from 7.9 points preoperatively to 2.7 points at 3 months postoperatively (Figure 2).

As for the perception of tinnitus in percentage of hours per day, there was a reduction from 100% (preoperative value) to 11% (3 months postoperatively). It was observed that the improvement in tinnitus perception remained even when the implant was switched off.
In selected cases with residual hearing and in cases with contralateral hearing loss, hybrid and bimodal stimulation, respectively, showed good results regarding hearing (Figure 3, Figure 4) and tinnitus control.

According to Bauer,15 the estimated prevalence of adults with chronic tinnitus varies between 6% and 20%. Of these, between 1% and 3% suffer disabling tinnitus that interferes with their quality of life. The genesis of tinnitus is explained as a negative consequence of neural plasticity of the central nervous system after a peripheral aggression.
Scientific evidence has shown that reorganisation processes take place in the auditory cortex after suffering tinnitus associated to sensorineural hearing loss, as well as an overstimulation of certain tonotopic cortical areas. Herraiz et al.16 found that acoustic rehabilitation reduced the impact of this reorganisation and improved tinnitus.
Numerous studies support the suppression or improvement of tinnitus after cochlear implantation.2, 3, 4, 17, 18, 19 On average, between 60% and 90% of tinnitus cases in implanted patients with hearing loss show an improvement in perception, which sometimes even reaches its disappearance. This effect may persist for a certain time after switching off the processor, probably in relation to residual inhibition.20 Moreover, in some patients electrical stimulation of the auditory pathway succeeds in improving or even suppressing contralateral tinnitus.19, 21
In our study, we observed a suppression of tinnitus in 2 patients (20%), whereas 8 experienced an improvement in its perception (80%). In connection with the score obtained on the THI, there was a reduction from 72.1% in the preoperative period to 14.3% in the 3 postoperative months.
Bovo et al.19 conducted a study on 51 patients with profound, bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, who were candidates for cochlear implantation. The study cohort for tinnitus and cochlear implant was reduced to 36 patients; in 11 patients (30.5%), there was a suppression of tinnitus; in 16 (44.4%), its perception decreased; in 5 (13.9%), there was no change and in 4 patients (11.1%), there was a worsening. In connection with THI, there was an improvement in 72.2% of patients, no change in 2.8% and a worsening in 25% of cases. Of the 36 patients, 27 presented bilateral tinnitus and there was an improvement of contralateral tinnitus in 10 of them (45%).
Di Nardo et al.18 established 2 study groups: group A, composed of 20 patients with preimplantation tinnitus, and group B, composed of 10 patients without preimplantation tinnitus. No patient in group B presented postimplantation tinnitus. In group A, there was a suppression of tinnitus in 8 patients (40%), its perception decreased in 6 (30%), 5 patients (25%) did not experience any changes and 1 patient (5%) reported a worsening of tinnitus.
In recent years, cochlear implants have been used in a novel way in patients with unilateral, severe-profound sensorineural hearing loss with associated disabling tinnitus and normal contralateral hearing with good results.5, 6, 8 The largest series studied to date includes 5 patients. Of these, tinnitus was suppressed in 3 and its perception improved in 2.5
Our study results are encouraging, but we must be cautious in their interpretation. Undoubtedly, further work with a larger patient cohort is needed to refine the selection criteria in these cases.Conclusions
Cochlear implants can reduce or suppress incapacitating tinnitus in patients with unilateral, severe-profound sensorineural hearing loss and normal contralateral hearing. It is a valid and effective therapy when other treatments have failed. In selected cases with residual hearing and in cases suffering contralateral hearing loss, hybrid and bimodal stimulation, respectively, have shown good results in hearing and in the control of tinnitus.
The reduction of tinnitus after cochlear implantation may be due to several mechanisms, such as habituation, acoustic masking, direct stimulation of the cochlear nerve and reorganisation of cortical areas.Conflict of Interests

The practice of unrestricted universal suffrage is unjust. Citizens have a right that any political power held over them should be exercised by competent people in a competent way. Universal suffrage violates this right. To satisfy this right, universal suffrage in most cases must be replaced by a moderate epistocracy, in which suffrage is restricted to citizens of sufficient political competence. Epistocracy itself seems to fall foul of the qualified acceptability requirement, that political power must be distributed in ways against which there are no qualified objections. However, it is less intrinsically unjust than democracy with universal suffrage, and probably produces more just outcomes. Thus epistocracy is more just than democracy, even if not perfectly just.

BETHLEHEM, Pa. (AP) — Mike Patterson, who collapsed and suffered a seizure at practice just 10 days ago, has returned to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Patterson did not practice Saturday, but was in uniform doing strength and conditioning drills with trainer Rick Burkholder and several other teammates for the first time since his scary episode on an adjacent field. Patterson didn't answer questions, but he did smile broadly and tell reporters, "I feel great," while leaving the practice field.
Patterson, a 300-pound defensive tackle, was diagnosed with a brain AVM after collapsing during one of the team's training camp practices at Lehigh University on Aug. 3. He was taken from the field in an ambulance and hospitalized for three days.

don't think it has anything to do with breakfast time (in fact I'm sure)... why would they show 12 to 8 then, instead of 8 to 12? Guess the idea is that with a scale like this, the weight indicator goes down instead of up... of course only after eating Special K ;)
Now about that idea... the thing is, how more you actually weigh, how less you will weigh on this scale...
nobody standing on it indeed gives the impression it is broke
but the basic idea (the backward weighing) is quite good i think
yeah i like the idea too. you'll have to buy scales that measure your weight loss, the reverse of normal scales when you weigh your gains.

Groton — A local submariner recently helped save a man who was having a heart attack at Electric Boat while another evacuated passengers from a burning bus in Preston.
Both good Samaritans credited their military training with giving them the knowledge and confidence to help.
Jared Bradovich, a machinist's mate first class, was aboard the USS Annapolis when the sub's emergency medical assistance team was called. A shipyard worker was having a heart attack on the walkway leading to the submarine on Nov. 2.
The Annapolis is at Electric Boat for maintenance and the stricken shipyard worker is one of the Newport News Shipbuilding employees helping with the job.
The emergency medical assistance team was on a barge near the sub, not on the sub itself, so Bradovich grabbed an emergency medical kit and climbed out of the submarine.
The man wasn't breathing so Bradovich and another shipyard worker administered CPR for about five minutes until EB's fire department arrived on the scene and took the man to Lawrence & Memorial Hospital. He was then taken to Yale-New Haven Hospital, said Lt. Cmdr. Andre Lester, executive officer of the Annapolis (SSN 760).
"The report I received from one of the supervisors is they were told at Yale that if it was not for the first responders, he probably would've died," Lester said. "He had two massive heart attacks on the pier."
Two days later, on Nov. 4, a student at the Naval Submarine School, Charles Barlow, was driving on Route 164 in Preston when he saw a bus on fire, according to the school. The bus came to a halt on the side of the road. Barlow pulled over, too, and ran toward it.
Barlow, an aviation electronics technician third class, called 911 and then boarded the bus to lead the 40 passengers to safety, the school said. He returned to the bus with a fire extinguisher from his vehicle and with help from the bus driver put out the fire in the rear engine compartment.
Barlow directed traffic until the police arrived. Capt. David Roberts, commanding officer of the Naval Submarine School, presented him with a Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal on Thursday. Roberts praised Barlow's quick response and "display of outstanding situational awareness and calm resolve."
"Thanks to my Navy training, I knew what to do and was confident I could handle what was coming," Barlow said in a statement. "I was glad to be able to use what I've learned to help others and make a difference."
Bradovich said he was happy to help.
"It makes me happy I can still utilize my training and help someone out that was in need," he said in an interview.
Bradovich said he learned CPR on his first submarine and received a refresher course when he reported to the Annapolis. He studied at Tripler Army Medical Center and he knows combat life-saving skills because he served with the U.S. Army in Iraq in 2007 as one of the Navy's individual augmentees, the sailors who temporarily step out of their normal roles to support other units.
Nearly all of the sailors on the Annapolis could perform CPR, and only a few need more training to be certified, Lester said. That is because at sea, "it's just us," he added.
"We do a lot of training like that because you never know when you're going to have to respond or who will have to respond," Lester said.
Lester said when he saw Bradovich take charge and help the man, he told everyone else to stay clear.
"He's one of the go-to guys on the ship," he said, adding later that "any other crew member would've done the same thing."
"That's the kind of tight-knit family we have down here, and the skills we learn we can apply them to everyone," he said.

Collier commissioners renew push to finish Freedom Memorial
COLLIER COUNTY, Fla. – A tribute to the victims and heroes of September 11 has been sitting unfinished for years.
$1.2 million is needed to finish the Freedom Memorial off of Golden Gate Parkway near Goodlette-Frank Road in Naples.
Now county leaders may be ready to hand over your tax dollars to get it done.
"We want to finish this, it's a beautiful thing," said Jerry Sanford, chairman of the Freedom Memorial Task Force.
The project is 14 years in the making but it's still under construction. During that time $750,000 has been raised for it, either through commemorative bricks or donations.
"We never forget what happened September 11, 2001, and all of the people that have fought and died so that you and I can be here today."
Sanford tells WINK News there has been a big push from city and county leaders recently to get the monument done.
The latest comes from Collier County Commissioner Georgia Hiller.
"That the county match the amount of money we raise from the Freedom Memorial Foundation to help us complete our project," said Sanford.
Under the proposal, Commissioner Hiller tells WINK News the county would match a maximum of $600,000 with money from the capital and the general fund.
"We're so excited, we're hoping we get the five votes down there," said Sanford.
Collier County Commissioners will vote on this proposal on Tuesday. If approved, they will immediately begin matching private funds raised dollar for dollar.

text: Hello guys I have started playing The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim game but I found the some bugs during playing. Last night while playing I killed a dragon at a location I had already technically "cleared". When I walked up to the dragon I had killed, I wouldn't absorb its soul. Is this because I've already killed this area's dragon? I know they spawn at random but they also seem to definitely be at the marked locations.

rebug firmware? one of the best out there
rebug firmware? one of the best out there
Was kind of disappointed, thought this was the first CFW using the payload without the dongle.
Haha no Tomorrow i will write something about it, its deep night here
Nice to see cfw makers rally around something. That's progress, right, even if I'm not down with burning special blurays?
This is great, you guys are getting it so fast..
hope to see a CFW without a TB dongle soon.. thank you Devs
Yeah - me too - but there is still hope ...
I'm really surprised rebug came out with a dongle firmware. I thought they were a proper CFW but I guess it looks like we will be needing a dongle for the next wave of CFW.
Then we will still rely on groups to release patches to games.
Confirmed Works perfectly with JB2
Can someone explain me how to enable fakesaveowner?
Offtopic but what is fakesaveowner ?
Can't you import your friends ps3 save game data on you ps3 by default? Or I am missing something... Thank you!
Well here's what it says about the "Fake save owner" function on the website.
"Allows use of save data from other users and displays a warning message at every load/save during the game. Once a save data has been saved with this features activated, that save couldn't be read with this function deactivated."
So you can use other peoples save data with your user ID as if the save was your own. A bit similar to PS3SaveUnlocker.

Carburetor to TBI Conversion - Fuelie For The Masses - Cover StoryWritten by on December 1, 1998 Contributors: Mark Wagner Swap Your Carb For TBI And Live Happily Ever After
Mention fuel injection to the average hot rodder and his head immediately fills with visions of late-model Corvettes, tuned-port plenums, multiport injectors, and big bucks. If your brain works that way, it's time to reprogram your gray matter. You see, there's a low-dollar alternative to TPI fuel injection for Chevy small-blocks, one that provides the same improved driveability, fuel-economy, and performance at a fraction of the cost. Meet Mr. TBI, throttle-body injection, also known as the carburetor with a brain. TBI systems use a dual-plane aluminum intake manifold and a throttle body with two injectors that deliver fuel to the engine.
TBI has been standard equipment on millions of GM pickups and sport/utility vehicles since 1987, so the components are common, proven, and bulletproof. TBI also emphasizes low-end torque-good news for any street rat. And if you convert from carburetion to a TBI system, all the small-block's existing bracketry for the alternator, A/C compressor, and power-steering pump can be retained-not true for TPI systems.
We recently converted a '48 Ford sedan running a four-barrel-fed 327 small-block to TBI using stock GM parts and a wiring harness from Painless Wiring. While TBI components can be found at wrecking yards and swap meets, we opted for a ready-to-go package from Arizona TPI Specialists in Tempe, Arizona, which specializes in GM fuel-injection systems. Arizona TPI and Painless Wiring base their systems on TBI units from the '87-'90 GMC/Chevrolet pickup or Suburban. In fact, the Painless Wiring harness will work only with computers from these vehicles. This assembly retails for approximately $1,600. Careful boneyard scrounging could net all the major pieces for hundreds of dollars less.
A TBI shopping list includes the following: a TBI throttle body and intake manifold, an electronic control module (ECM), a GM electronically controlled distributor, an electric fuel pump, a fuel filter and a pressure-safe post-pump filter, a fuel return line to the tank, a manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor, an electric-spark control module, fuel pump relay, coolant temperature sensor, knock sensor, oxygen sensor, an oil-pressure switch, a vehicle-speed sensor, and a wiring harness.
The conversion is very straightforward. You swap intake manifolds and distributors, install all sensors, mount the fuel pump and fuel lines, route and connect the wiring harness and computer, and turn the key. Still, there are a few caveats...
In stock configuration, GM locates the fuel pump inside the tank. But the pump-a high-speed vane-type that spins at 3,500 rpm-can also be mounted outside the fuel tank. Since TBI systems run at a low pressure, between 9 and 12 psi (compared to 35 psi for TPI systems), a "soft" fuel return line can be used. To plumb the return line to the tank, we installed a trick fuel-gauge sending unit from Classic Instruments that uses a return tube as the float mechanism's mounting stanchion. It simply slips into the mounting hole for the stock tank sending unit.
The heart of any fuel-injection system is the wiring harness. The Painless Wiring harness pre-connects all TBI sensor connectors-each is unique to the sensor it feeds. Routing the harness is time consuming and contingent upon where the computer is placed. We hid the '48's ECM under the dash between the A/C evaporator and the fuse panel, but the kick panels are a good spot, too.
The Assembly Line Diagnostic Link (ALDL) connector deserves special mention. This small 12-pin connector is the window to the ECM's memory. Painless mounts the ALDL on a bracket fitted with a small "check engine" light. This light comes on when the ignition is turned on and goes out once the engine fires. If there is a problem in the system, it stays illuminated. If the problem is short lived, the light goes out, but the ECM stores the info in memory. To find out what happened, jump two terminals on the ALDL, and the check-engine light flashes the codes. Yes, TBI talks to you. Then you simply fix the problem. Try that with a carburetor.
On the road, the fat-fendered Ford we converted demonstrated crisp throttle response, strong acceleration, no flat spots, and zero cold-start stumble. To start a cold engine, simply turn the key: The engine fires immediately and idles smoothly. On the road, fuel demand is down, and driveability is up. And re-jetting for changes in altitude is a thing of the past; the computer adjusts the fuel mixture and ignition timing on the fly.
There you have it-a quick primer on TBI fuel injection. To completely describe all the nuances and technical background of fuel injection would take a book. Therefore, we recommend two such manuals: How to Tune & Modify Chevrolet Fuel Injection by Ben Watson and Hot Rod Wiring by Tim Remus and Dennis Olverholser. Both are available from Motorbooks International.

Arizona TPI supplied this fuel-pump/filter/ mounting kit. Even a minute piece of grit or hose can damage the pump, so a pre-pump filter is mandatory. Since the post-pump filter is under constant pressure, it must be designed for a fuel-injection system. Wrap it in foam to isolate vibration.Gee, it looks like a carbureted small-block. Yet beneath that stock-looking air cleaner is the fuel-injection system from a new Chevy pickup.Classic Instruments' fuel sender (PN SN33) uses the pickup tube to mount the float/sender mechanism. We added a 90-degree fitting so that the fuel line would fit between the tank and the trunk floor.For leakproof fuel-line plumbing, we used Aeroquip Versil-Flare flareless tube fittings and Aeroquip AQP socketless hose and fittings-they're good for 250 psi and don't need hose clamps.

Offering clarificationAugust 30,2013
Offering clarification
Let me try to explain my 2009 proposal for dealing with the uninsured in terms that Jerry Kilcourse can grasp.
If/when you have occasion to consume medical services, you will be responsible for paying the cost, just like you are after receiving a haircut.
You can choose to gamble on continued good health, or set aside dollars to pay for future services, or plan to pass the hat to enable you to pay for what you consumed, join an HMO or a health care co-op, or buy an insurance contract whereby an insurer agrees to pay in case you incur a specified claim.
Nowhere would you face an Obamacare tax or penalty for not choosing to buying insurance. Youd face up to your own responsibility, however you chose to meet it.
What you wouldnt be able to do, however, is choose your lifestyle and risks, consume a lot of medical services, and expect the government to coerce the taxpayers into providing the money to pay your bills.

Mets Lose to Pirates; Legends to Convene for a Cause
The Pittsburgh Pirates throttled the Mets on Tuesday, with starter Collin McHugh unable to make it out of the second inning before allowing seven runs. Ultimately, the Mets fell 10-6.
Several Mets greats will meet, greet and sign autographs for fans at a Nov. 1 fundraising dinner to benefit Shannon Forde, a longtime Mets media-relations employee who is battling stage-four breast cancer.
Former Mets pitcher and current SNY analyst Ron Darling will MC the dinner, to be held at the Westmont Country Club in Woodland Park, N.J. Darryl Strawberry, Dwight Gooden, John Franco, Bobby Ojeda, Edgardo Alfonzo, Al Leiter and former New York Giants punter Sean Landeta are among those scheduled to attend.
Tickets for the autograph session are available for $250; dinner tickets are available for $100. For more information, see hopeshinesforshannon.com.

Let's all get a group together so we can meet Euro!!
Hard to believe. The TDF budget isn't big enough to cover the friggin hotel bill they'll rack up in two nights in London. And you'll never MEET Euro. Are you nuts? The guy is so paranoid he doesn't want to reveal what NATION he's from. Get serious.
Those pros are gonna have to pedal fast to get across the Channel.
Actually, a London Prologue TT would be pretty sweet...Kensington Palace to the Tower of London, via Trafalgar Square.

What about you patentcad? I notice you have no location under your name. Come on, spill the beans.
Regarding the grand depart - I'm assuming that they will close the route the day before, so hopefully there will be other events on the circuit which I will be able to take part in.

Odd you should say that, because they were due to annouce this last summer, but they changed their mind after we won the Olympics from them.I wonder: Are the French now trying to piss themselves off?
Blimey, you're just down the road from me!!! Where do you ride? I go to richmond park for quick blasts, but quite frankly find doing the umpteen laps a little mind numbing, still its good to try and keep up with the racers and triatholon dudes who train there. I ride in Surrey round Box Hill and Dorking wherever possible, its my spiritual home as I've been lucky enough to work in Leatherhead in the past and many happy memories of sun drenched lunchtime rides in the summer.Originally Posted by EURO

I realize the Tour wants to be as big as it can, but why is the Tour de FRANCE always spending time in other countries?
I can understand crossing into an adjacent country if the roads connect with France, but spending DAYS in the other country kind of defeats the whole FRANCE part of the race name, no?
The Giro d'Italia is doing a few days in Belgium in 2006. Huh?? There is probably a good reason for it, but doesn't Belgium have enough races throughout the season?
There is probably $$$ behind these decisions (most definitely for taking the Tour to London), but come on now.
What's next? The Prologue of the Tour de Georgia will be in Cincinnati? The Tour of California to spend two stages in Hawai'i?

Patience key for bus commuters on two-hour, 7-mile trip to work
As I waited for the Edmond Express bus to arrive at N University Drive and E Ayers in Edmond on Tuesday morning it became apparent that for bus commuters patience is not a virtue. It is a necessity. It was well past 9 a.m. and the Edmond Express that would take me to the downtown Oklahoma City transit center was already more than 10 minutes late. I was fumed. The bus commute to work was prompted by an assignment to check out alternative commuting possibilities as the price of gasoline inches toward $4 a gallon. My journey began at 8:21 a.m. at the Wal-Mart on the far west side of Edmond where I caught the "Eddy," a bus that circulates between Wal-Mart and the University of Central Oklahoma stop every 30 minutes. The Eddy delivered me to the University stop at 8:37 at a cost of 50 cents. Only one other rider had boarded. So, I waited at the bus shelter across from UCO for the 8:47 express bus and tried to read the newspaper brought along for the down time. However, clock watching and bus anticipating were too distracting. When 8:47 came and went with no bus, I put down the newspaper and went on full alert. Standing next to me was Isaac Denman, a 24-year-old UCO student who showed none of the impatience I displayed. He was waiting for the bus that would take him back to Oklahoma City after an 8 a.m. class. Denman obviously had been more bus savvy than I and read his newspaper without any signs of anxiety. The bus often arrives after its appointed time or even before, he said. "Sometimes they will come by 8:40 or 8:45 and if you are late even one minute you miss it," he said. "Other times you will stay here for a long time before they show up." At 9:06, I could take it no longer and called the Metro Transit number displayed in the bus shelter and asked the woman who answered if she could find out how much longer we would have to wait. She put me on hold just as our bus turned the corner to the stop. Denman and I were the only two people to board the Edmond Express, on which one other rider already was seated. Fare was $2.25, with a free bus transfer ticket. We rode to downtown Oklahoma City in silence, arriving only five minutes late at 9:35. As I exited to change buses at the Transit Center I asked bus driver Ronnie Collins if he had seen any increase in ridership in the wake of the dramatic rise in gasoline prices.
It still doesn't register"No, it won't register until it hits $4 (a gallon)," Collins said. "At $4 you will see an increase. Most people in Edmond have a very comfortable income and nothing deters them. They (are) still driving those Expeditions and Suburbans, and I'm thinking 'wow.' "But at $4, you will see more people riding the bus." However, the story was different on Bus 18 that makes a loop from downtown to Lincoln Boulevard, over to Kelley Avenue and up to Britton Road. There were 14 people onboard the bus when it pulled out of the Transit Center, and three more boarded before it got to the Capitol. Most exited somewhere along Lincoln Boulevard as the bus headed north. A few seconds after the bus turned west on Britton Road, I pulled the cord that prompted the driver to stop outside the north entrance to The Oklahoman. It was 10:31 a.m. when I exited the bus. The journey to work cost $2.75 and had taken two hours and 10 minutes on three buses. My normal commute of seven miles takes about 15 minutes. But it's good to know that there is an alternative that requires only time and a certain amount of patience.

Chinese Dinosaur Park is a first stage project started and developed by the Changzhou modern tourism and leisure area. The Chinese Dinosaur House covers a total area of 14000 square meters. The highest spot of the vault is 36 meters high while that of dragon head is as high as 71 meters. It becomes a symbolic building of Changzhou tourism for its great space and unique architectural language.
The Chinese Dinosaur House is composed of five main halls and six auxiliary halls. All the halls radiate, converge, and are related with each other through logical routes.
It takes the evolution history of species as the design background and gives prominence to the magistral line of idea from the survival through reproduction and evolution to the extinction of the dinosaurs, and reveals the profound theme that human beings must protect the ecological environment due to the interdependence of life and environment.
The unique survival environment of the Mesozoic is reproduced by splashing waterfalls, suddenly extruding mountain rocks, an ocean devoid of water, luxuriant jungles and prehistoric caves, etc. The fossil display employs varied techniques, which applies high-tech devices and sound, light and electricity, and combines screen and video image formation, cartoon and animation, turning model of dinosaur, internet game and all sorts of scientific making, causes Chinese Dinosaur House to break through the traditional concept of "natural science" and become a modern new type dinosaur museum with shocking power that blends natural science, scientific popularization, admiration, amusement and participation into one.
There are more than twenty breathtaking and driving rhythm entertainment items arranged around the dinosaur house in the park, including traversing the Jurassic Period, the stereo maze of the Cretaceous Period, the devil's cave of diapason in Trias, drifting on barren waste, dynamic and stereoscopic motion picture, upper air slip rope, rocket man, super flying hero, hot air balloon lift-off, simulated rock climbing, lovers' bicycle ride, ball rolling on grass slope, earthquake plate, horse riding track, parent-child park and water bicycle, etc, which relaxes tourists' body and mind and lets them linger on without any thought of leaving.
