With 25 years of sluggish economic growth, Japan's per capita income has fallen from a level matching the average of the top half of OECD countries in the early 1990s to 14% below that today. Weak growth, together with rapid population ageing, has driven public debt into uncharted territory. Revitalising growth is thus the top priority for the Japanese government. With the labour force shrinking more rapidly than the population, per capita output can only grow through improvements in labour productivity and labour force participation. Japan's highly-skilled labour force and its technological leadership can help close the gap with leading OECD countries in per capita income. But broad-based structural reforms, as envisaged in the third arrow of Abenomics, are needed to allow these strengths to fully achieve their potential. The initial impact of Abenomics in 2013 was impressive, and the reform process needs to continue.
Japan is embarked on a demographic transition without precedent in human history: the population is both declining and ageing rapidly. This raises important questions about the country's future economic geography, as public policies will need both to respond to these shifts and also to shape them. Demographic change will have particularly important implications for the settlement pattern of the country, and this, in turn, will affect Japan's ability to sustain economic growth and the well-being of its citizens. This Review therefore focuses on the spatial implications of demographic change and the response of spatial policies to it, particularly as these interact with other policies aimed at sustaining the productivity growth that a "super-ageing" Japan will need in order to maintain its future prosperity. The Japanese authorities have recently put in place a complex package of long-term spatial and structural policies aimed at meeting this challenge. Their experience should be of first-order interest to other OECD countries, as most face the prospect of rapid population ageing and many are also projected to experience significant population decline over the coming decades.
Japan must make revitalising growth its number one priority with reforms to boost productivity and encourage more women and older people into jobs to compensate for its rapidly shrinking labour force, according to the OECD.
The Secretary-General met with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe as well as several Ministers and high-level authorities of Japan. He spoke at a number of events and also presented the OECD Territorial Review of Japan and the publication Japan: Boosting Growth and Well-being in an Ageing Society.
The 2015 edition of National Accounts of OECD Countries, General Government Accounts is an annual publication, dedicated to government finance which is based on the System of National Accounts 2008 (SNA 2008) for all countries except Chile, Japan, Korea and Turkey (SNA 1993). It includes tables showing government aggregates and balances for the production, income and financial accounts as well as detailed tax and social contribution receipts and a breakdown of expenditure of general government by function, according to the harmonised international classification, COFOG. These detailed accounts are available for the general government sector. Data also cover the following sub-sectors, according to availability: central government, state government, local government and social security funds.
The data in this publication are also available on line via www.oecd-ilibrary.org under the title OECD National Accounts Statistics, General Government Accounts (http://dx.doi.org/10.1787/na-gga-data-en and http://dx.doi.org/10.1787/na-gga08-data-en).
The OECD/Korea Policy Centre fosters the exchange of technical information and policy experiences relating to the Asia Pacific region in areas such as health statistics, pension reforms and social policy and expenditure.
On the occasion of the 5th anniversary of 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami, OECD Secretary-General, Angel Gurría, shared his sustained support for the victims and their families.
Achieving strong growth in the global economy remains elusive, with only a modest recovery in advanced economies and slower activity in emerging markets, according to the OECD's latest Interim Economic Outlook.

A Betrayal The Art World Can't Forget; The Battle for Rothko's Estate Altered Lives and Reputations
By JUDITH H. DOBRZYNSKI
Published: November 2, 1998
When the Whitney Museum of American Art entertained a crowd of 200 collectors and friends a few days before the official opening of its Mark Rothko retrospective in September, Dr. Kate Rothko, the artist's daughter, was one of the speakers. Trying to avoid controversy, she only alluded to the convoluted battle over her father's estate, a long-ago case of underhanded greed that bared the inner workings of the supposedly genteel art world.
Still, a friend later told her, someone criticized her for resurrecting the past. ''There is a feeling in the art world,'' said Dr. Rothko, a pathologist who was 19 when her father committed suicide in 1970, ''that this is something they'd rather forget.''
But it is not that easy. The Rothko case may be rarely mentioned nowadays, but there is little doubt that it had a lasting effect. For nearly a dozen years beginning in 1971, the art world and the public were transfixed by the battle between Rothko's executors, all of them his good friends, and his two children, who accused the executors of waste and fraud, and by the ensuing appeals and related litigation. As a result, many of Rothko's luminous Abstract Expressionist paintings, which had been sold or consigned by his estate to the Marlborough Gallery in Manhattan at deflated prices, were donated to museums, probably enhancing their value.
Rothko and his work became better known, further establishing his reputation. Marlborough lost its pre-eminence in contemporary art. Its flamboyant owner, Frank Lloyd, never recouped his reputation, and neither did Theodoros Stamos, a painter Rothko chose as an executor. Kate Rothko, who grew up in the middle of the New York art scene, grew disillusioned with her father's world. Even the public lost some innocence.
''The Rothko affair was a flashing red light to many that in this field of high values and mysterious goings-on there's always a potential for this kind of dealing,'' said Andre Emmerich, the Manhattan dealer.
Over the years, artists, dealers and museums have seen their share of scandals, but few if any have approached the level of the Rothko affair in size or notoriety. Day after day, newspapers recounted courtroom testimony under headlines like ''Angry Exchange in Rothko Case'' and ''New Rothko Charges Denied by Gallery.''
Before Marlborough was stopped by a court ruling, it had sold more than 100 paintings -- including a few that Rothko's children now say they would have kept -- at less than market value to favored clients while it collected inflated commissions as high as 50 percent, compared with the 30 percent usually charged for an artist of his caliber. The executors, meanwhile, divided the estate's proceeds from Marlborough as their fees.
Ultimately Dr. Rothko and her brother, Christopher, who was 6 when their father died at 67, were vindicated. In 1975, a New York State court ousted the executors, canceled their sweetheart contracts with Marlborough and fined them and the gallery $9.2 million.
Later, while at his home in the Bahamas, Lloyd was indicted by the Manhattan District Attorney for tampering with evidence in the case. He surrendered after years as a fugitive and was convicted on three counts in 1983. He died on April 7.
In a telephone interview, Dr. Rothko, who runs a blood bank in Washington, recalled that the case marked something of an intellectual coming of age for her. ''I mainly remember my disillusionment with the art world,'' she said. ''I hadn't thought of it as a business world. I had grown up with an idealized view of the art world.''
Through their legal victory, she and Christopher, who had directly inherited only a tenth of their father's paintings through the estate of their mother (who also died in 1970), won possession of half of the 2,000 works Rothko left behind. In the late 1970's they were valued at $50 million.
Dr. Rothko, 47, said the case continued to cause her pain. Although she and her brother still own many of the paintings from the estate, she said she was frustrated that some paintings were sold by Marlborough before the ruling. Among those she says she would have kept is ''Homage to Matisse,'' now owned by the Edward R. Broida Trust. ''I haven't seen it since the time of my father's death,'' she said.
Dr. Rothko is ''largely outside the art world now,'' she said. She and her husband, Ilya Prizel, a professor of international studies at Johns Hopkins University, see only a few people from those times, like the artist William Scharf.
Her three children, a boy, 17, and girls, 14 and 8, ''are just finding out about this now,'' she said. ''I'm making them aware of how difficult it was to get the paintings.''
Christopher, 35, is also detached from the art world. He is a clinical psychologist who lives in Ann Arbor, Mich., and is married with two toddlers. He remembers nothing about the courtroom drama, he said, but added that it left him with ''a certain cautiousness in dealing with the business world, the legal world and the business side of the art world.''

I need Google to index my site as an ordinary website as an ordinary website not as a blog , what i need to do ?
I need Google to index my site as an ordinary website as an ordinary website not as a blog , what i need to do ?
What do you mean about "Google index your site as a blog" ?
^^ Yes ^^ what SNSD News said.
I am not sure what "index my site as an ordinary website as an ordinary website not as a blog" means.
@s_ha_dum and @SNSD News,
What mbozz wants may be that in search results, the posts and pages should not appear if people look for results under Blogs (Look at the left for 'Web, Images, Maps, Videos, News, Blogs).
I think if that is so, mbozz should not have a Blog or blog section in his site, and all characteristics of blogs. The site should only have a static site. Perhaps, that will solve the problem, though it will be a huge disadvantage.
that will solve the problem, though it will be a huge disadvantage
@Seacoast Web Design,
You know the answer, I hope.
I am using wordpress for my site http://www.mbozz.in
The exact problem is with Google Site Links site links ( eg of a site link : http://naperdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/subdomain-sitelinks.png ) .
I was possible to get the site links for my site running in Joomla . But cant do it for my site working in wordpress.
@SNSD News Member : I mean on seach my site is listed under blog category ( you can see if you google "mbozz" ) .
So i need my site listed under Website category not as a BLOG
If I search "mbozz" you come up in the "web" section, at the top. You also show up in the "blog" section at the top.
Based on your most recent post, it seems that what you really want is that table of links under your main listing. I don't think that is related to your being included in the "blog" section. Our sites list under "web" with the table of links below them, as in your image, but list under "blog" without them. How the site displays in the two areas is different but latter doesn't prevent your having that table of links in the "web" display. And I'd rather be listed in more placed that less.
@s_ha_dum : did u check the link of image that i have mentioned ? ( http://naperdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/subdomain-sitelinks.png )
i want some of my pages show like that .
When i try to put links like that by using Google webmaster tools . google disapprove it because by site is a blog . So i want Google recognize my site as an ordinary site to get my sitelinks thare
Google will index your site fine, use a plugin for SEO, or create the required robots.txt file, sitemap.xml file and of course the embedded code, meta tag or file upload that links your site properly to your webmaster account.
@mbozz That's what we usually called by "backlinks from google". That features only available if you have old site, high-traffic, etc.
*) Maybe if you hire seo experts, you can get that.
Site links are not created by Google for all blogs/ sites. Read this from Google:
We only show sitelinks for results when we think they'll be useful to the user.
Also go through this link below and try to use the Google resources to sort out the problem.
@s_ha_dum : did u check the link of image that i have mentioned ?
Yes. What did you think I was talking about?
I am thinking that your problem is this "If the structure of your site doesn't allow our algorithms to find good sitelinks, or we don't think that the sitelinks for your site are relevant for the user's query, we won't show them."
Your site doesn't have any obvious main links (obvious to a web crawler, that is) and your sitemap doesn't really identify any primary links either.
This topic has been closed to new replies.

In all fairness, if the retailers can start their buying frenzy season early, then I should be allowed to practice my usual holiday humbuggery early too.
Today is Thanksgiving, yet there are many Americans who will miss reconnecting with family and telling stories, or even counting their blessings. Why? They're working today.
I think maybe a good job for me would be to head up the office of useless information.
Today I talked to people who avoided the crowds of Black Friday. Every year people crowd into stores, and elbow their way to deals. Every year people sit back and talk about what this means for our culture. I know enough people do this, you don't really need to hear what I have to say, but I am going to add my two cents worth anyway.
What do you think, Lubbock? Some major retailers opening as early as 9 Thanksgiving night. Is this a good idea, or a worrisome encroachment on a holiday. Some comments may be used in Walt's Sunday column...

Gregory Fremont-Barnes examines the lives of the American Bomber Crewmen of the Eighth Air Force, "The Mighty Eighth," who crewed, maintained and repaired the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortresses and the B-24 Liberators that flew from the airfields of Norfolk and Suffolk and other counties of England during World War II (1939-1945). He highlights the physical and psychological strain placed on these brave men. Long bombing missions called for brute strength to control the aircraft and extraordinary endurance to fly for hours at 20,000 feet at temperatures below freezing in unheated, unpressurized cabins. Then there were Luftwaffe fighters and anti-aircraft fire to contend with and it required incredible skill and some luck to return from a mission unscathed. This book is a fitting tribute to these often uncelebrated heroes who took the war deep into the Third Reich, as well as a fascinating historical account of the experiences they went through.
About the Author
Gregory Fremont-Barnes is Senior Lecturer in War Studies at Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst. He has previously lectured around the world and holds a doctorate in Modern History from Oxford. He has written widely on military history, and currently lectures at Sandhurst on the conduct of the Falklands War. He lives in Surrey.
Praise For…
"Experiences of battle covers a goodly section of the book. Here we hear from pilots, bombardiers, gunners and radio operators as to how they coped with the stresses of missions and in some cases, their capture and imprisonment after their planes have been shot down. All of this is superbly illustrated using period photos and the artwork of Sean O'Brogain."- Scott Van Aken, modelingmadness.com (May 2008)
"Gregory Freemont-Barnes' American Bomber Crewman 1941-45 [covers] the lives and achievements of the American Bomber Crewman of the USAF and the physical and psychological requirements for their duty." -California Bookwatch (May 2008)
"US bomber crews flew a wide variety of aircraft in every theatre. Here is a good account of their experiences, from recruitment and training to combat missions. It contains quite a few quotations from the men themselves as well as contemporary photographs, some in colour... a good book for anyone interested in the bomber war over Europe." -John Prigent, Internet Modeler (April 2008)

Over the weekend, Matthew Phelps proposed to his partner Ben Schock in the place where they had their first date.
Phelps, a U.S. Marine Corps captain is the first gay man to propose in the White House.
A photo of Phelps on bended knee went viral over the weekend receiving massive support with over 2,000 Facebook likes and 250 shares.
The couple says they are "blown away by the amazing love and support we have received."
For their first date, Phelps and Schock attended the LGBT Pride Month Reception together this past June.
"Although we had met a couple years prior at the 2010 Servicemembers Legal Defense Network annual dinner, we didn't actually start dating until we both made it back to Washington D.C. two years later," Phelps said.
The couple received an invitation to return to the White House for a tour making it the perfect opportunity for Phelps to pop the question.
"When we received an invitation from the Military Partners and Families Coalition to attend the White House holiday tour on Dec. 15, the coincidence that it would be the six-month anniversary of our first date—and also to the White House—was too big not to capitalize on," Phelps said.
"Matthew has made me the happiest I've ever been and I am so fortunate that I get to spend the rest of my life with him," Schock said.
Earlier this year a transgender man proposed to his fiancée at the White House.

Howell Equine Handbook of Tendon and Ligament Injuries
By Linda B. Schultz
John Wiley & SonsISBN: 0-7645-5715-7
Chapter OneDiagnosing Tendon and Ligament Injuries
If you're reading this book, you either have a lame horse who's been diagnosed with a tendon or ligament injury, or a knowledgeable stablemate, trainer or other "horse person" has told you that your horse has a tendon or ligament problem. Regardless of your level of expertise, this book will help you fill in the gaps, understand your horse's condition and help you through the phases of healing. Whether you have pleasure horses, racehorses, hunters, jumpers, dressage horses or trail horses, you will understand more about their legs and how they work once you've consulted this book. You need to be as informed as possible about your animal's health care, especially in conditions that can be as severe and career-ending as tendon and ligament disorders.
Most common tendon and ligament injuries can be quite serious. Many racehorses who injure a tendon or ligament will not race again. Other athletes may not return to their previous level of performance. However, the same horse may make a nice hunter or trail horse. Most injuries occur in the foreleg because the horse bears almost 70 percent of his weight there. The most common injury occurs to the superficial digital flexor tendon (SDF; one of the major tendons on the back of the foreleg-more on this in Chapter 2, "Functional Anatomy of the Equine Foreleg and Hind Leg"), followed by injury to the deep digital flexor tendon (DDF) and suspensory ligament. Each has similar findings at the cellular level and requires almost identical treatment regimes. When you understand what happens inside the tendon you'll understand why your veterinarian has prescribed certain therapies. Working with your vet is very important to a successful recovery from this or any injury.
Working with Your Veterinarian
Good communication with your vet is important when treating your horse, even if you have a trainer working with the veterinarian. Your information may be secondhand and may be garbled. Ask your vet any questions you might have and clarify the diagnosis and treatment.
Your vet should be happy to answer your questions. In fact, most vets prefer to talk more about the condition because your interest shows you are a conscientious owner. If your vet doesn't want to discuss your horse's condition, you should ask why and perhaps look for another vet. A good vet is patient and willing to discuss information on the level you're comfortable with.
Tendon Injury at the Cellular Level
Tendon injuries come in all sizes and degrees. They may be subclinical-so small that they cannot be detected without ultrasound-or they may be a complete tendon rupture. Inflammation, a complex process involving the immune system, occurs after an injury and is the first step to healing. Blood vessel dilation and leakiness, swelling, heat, pain and an increase of inflammatory blood cells are all signs of beginning inflammation. The goal of therapy, as we'll see soon, is to aggressively decrease inflammation. We'll discuss more about this later in this chapter and in Chapter 4.
A horse that limps from the track or arena with a tendon injury usually has swelling, hemorrhage (bleeding) into the lesion and tendon edema (internal swelling of the tendon) from inflammation. Fluid leaks into the tendon and, along with the blood, separates and weakens the remaining normal fibers. The body tries to clean up the damaged tissue by releasing enzymes, called hydrolytic enzymes, that would normally chew up damaged tissue into smaller sizes that can be carried away by the circulation. In excess, they can cause further damage to the collagen fibers and the glue that holds the fibers together, the interfibrillar matrix. In the process of the injury, the horse may have damaged the blood vessels, which may lead to necrosis (cell death).
Recognizing Tendon or Ligament Injury
Although you should have your veterinarian diagnose any suspected tendon or ligament injuries, these injuries are not difficult to spot. There are characteristic clues that with some help and practice you will be able observe.
Visually Examining Your Horse
You don't have to be a vet to detect injuries. Most animals with even a moderate tendon or ligament injury will be obviously lame. It's the more subtle injuries, the ones that might happen before the "big" one that you can train yourself to look for in your horse. A daily examination should be a routine every time you train or ride your horse.
Look at your horse's legs every day while he's uninjured both before and after you ride or train. By learning what normal looks like, you might be able to detect what looks abnormal. If your horse wears boots, use the moment before applying them to scan his lower limb for any sign of swelling, heat or thickening. Being familiar with your horse's legs will help you identify problems before they have a chance to worsen.
You won't be able to detect all injuries, but you'll have a good chance at recognizing severe, moderate and maybe even mild tendon and ligament injuries when you examine your horse every day.
Horses with mild injuries may not be noticeably limping, or lame. But most horses with at least moderate tendon or ligament injuries will be lame. In the case of a severe injury, you'll see that the horse is not bearing weight on a leg or is severely bobbing his head while walking.
Even though not all horses with tendon or ligament injuries are lame, there may be other signs present that the owner may or may not recognize. Talk with your vet if you suspect something is wrong with your horse's gait. Your vet can examine your horse for lameness. Diagnosing the cause of lameness, especially mild lameness, requires the experience and training of a veterinarian.
A horse who is intermittently lame can be frustrating. One day you ride and he is "off"; the next he's fine. Another day, you ride in deep sand and he's lame. The next day he seems off going one direction but not the other. What's important is that he is lame and your vet should examine him. There is no other answer for this problem. Mild tendon or ligament injuries that cause intermittent lameness will eventually become a big problem. The time, effort and money spent to correctly diagnose the problem are well worth it.
Swelling is a common sign of acute tendon and ligament injuries. Inflammation causes blood vessels to dilate (enlarge). The blood vessel leaks fluid into the surrounding tissue and causes swelling. Hemorrhage (bleeding) into the tissue can also cause swelling. Swelling of the SDF tendon causes the "bowed" appearance of a horse's lower leg in a "bowed" tendon (see Figure 1).
Although swelling is a common sign of tendon or ligament injury, not all injuries will result in swelling or it may be slight. Being familiar with what looks normal for your horse's legs is important in detecting slight swelling.
Pain on Touch (Palpation)
Tendon and ligament injuries hurt. The inflammatory process following an injury causes heat and pain. You can detect the pain through palpation (feeling your horse's injured leg with your fingers). Veterinarians and horse owners can gently palpate a horse's tendons and ligaments to determine his pain level. This takes practice and knowledge of anatomy, which is covered in the next chapter.
Many horses don't like their tendons or ligaments palpated (especially their suspensory ligament) while standing. Palpating an injured leg while the horse is standing on it can be inconclusive. You may have anything from no reaction to rearing up, depending on the horse and the injury. But an injured horse will usually react to palpation if the leg isn't bearing weight.
Inflammation often causes heat because of blood vessel dilation. The inflammation causes more blood to circulate through the region and causes the area to be warmer. Studies show that only about 20 percent of horses with tendon or ligament injury have increased heat in the affected leg. Therefore, heat is used moderately to assess tendon and ligament injuries.
But heat isn't something that you should ignore. If you feel heat in your horse's tendons, have your vet evaluate him for injury.
Diagnosing a tendon or ligament injury requires a trained veterinarian. However, you can assist your vet with the proper diagnosis. One way is to provide the vet with a detailed and accurate history. Your vet will want to know your horse's age and training competition level. Your vet will also need to know when your horse was injured, what activity precluded the injury, the horse's conditioning schedule, all medications (if any) administered to the horse prior to his examination and all therapies administered such as cold water hosing, bandaging, poultices applied or ice baths. He or she will also want to know if the horse was on stall rest or in a paddock. Your vet will then begin the lameness exam.
Lameness Exam
Depending on your horse's injury, the lameness exam can be very short or quite extensive. A horse who has an obvious injury such as a bowed tendon will require less exam time than a horse with a mild high suspensory ligament injury, which requires more time to diagnose. The veterinarian notes the horse's conformation, noting hoof wear and shoeing; observing all joints, tendons and ligaments of the lower leg; and visually inspecting back, rump and leg muscles for swelling or atrophy (degeneration). The vet should examine each hoof and should apply hoof testers to rule out any foot abnormalities.
Your vet should rule out each abnormality found during this initial exam as a cause of lameness during the exercise and palpation part of the exam.
After the initial exam, your veterinarian will ask you or an assistant to walk and trot your horse in a straight line and in circles in both directions. The handler's role is critical here. Hold the horse loosely so that his head is centered in line with his body. If you hold his head too tightly, your vet may not catch any subtle head nodding. If your horse is lame in one of the forelegs, your horse will drop his head (nod or bob) when he steps with the sound foot and raise his head when he steps with the unsound foot. This can be tricky, but if you think about when you stub a toe or step barefoot on a stone, you tend to lift your body when your sore foot hits the ground to get as much weight as possible off that foot. A horse will do the same thing. Therefore, his head will move up in an exaggerated manner when his sore foot hits the ground. If your vet can't detect lameness while the horse walks, then you must trot your horse. Your vet can detect lameness more easily when the horse is trotting because at any one time the horse only has two feet on the ground, which will distribute more of his body weight to the injured leg, making the lameness more apparent.
Determining subtle lameness in the hind legs is more complicated. Your vet will tell you how to move your horse so he can detect the lameness.
A horse with a bowed tendon will be noticeably lame at a walk and the "bow" will be obvious. A horse with a less severe injury might only be lame at a trot on concrete in circles to the right. Depending on the severity of the injury, it may require more time to diagnose.
Lameness is graded on a scale of Grade 1 (least lame) to Grade 4 (most lame). The vet grades the lameness so that he or she has a reference point at each visit. This grading is useful to other vets if they treat your horse. This grading is also important to determine if there's improvement or worsening.
Once your vet identifies the unsound leg, he or she will palpate the lower leg to isolate the problem. Your vet should palpate all joints, tendons and ligaments and note abnormalities. The problem may be obvious or perplexing. In less obvious injuries, the vet may wish to conduct other tests.
Diagnostic Tests
Most times, your veterinarian will need to perform one or more diagnostic tests to accurately diagnose your horse's lameness. Some tests are part of the lameness examination and some are in addition to the exam and will be an additional expense. However, it is worth knowing exactly what is wrong with your horse so that you can get on the road to recovery.
Flexion Tests
Flexion tests assist your vet in identifying joint problems and may be useful in diagnosing tendon or ligament injuries as well. In a flexion test of the fetlock joint, the vet bends and holds the joint with moderate pressure for at least one minute. Then you trot the horse. If the horse is lame in the fetlock joint, he will be noticeably lamer following this test. However, the flexor tendons are also crimped together, which may worsen the lameness along with any fetlock joint problems. This is especially true for horses with injured DDF tendons (see Figure 2).
A positive flexion test may still mean the tendons or ligaments are involved. Your veterinarian may rule out fetlock joint problems by using a local anesthetic to block nerves in the lower leg, called a local anesthetic nerve block.
Thermography is used to measure and record temperatures in a horse's leg. Vets and researchers thought it was useful in subclinical cases where the animal showed no lameness. Although it was popular in the mid- to late 1990s, it is seldom used today.
Thermography is very sensitive to changes in surface temperatures, but not very specific. For example, a leg under a bandage may appear "hot" on a thermographic study. A horse standing in a barn aisle with one side to an open door could have different thermographic studies between the two sides. There is a lot of potential for artifact interpretation with thermography and it most likely only measures what is going on at the surface and not what's happening in deeper tissues. Therefore, thermography has limited value in diagnosing a tendon or ligament injury.
Diagnostic ultrasound has truly revolutionized the diagnosing and monitoring of tendon and ligament injuries in the horse. In fact, a vet can't fully or accurately diagnose a tendon or ligament injury without an ultrasound exam (see Figure 3).
An ultrasound image is formed when ultrasound waves (sound waves) applied to the tendon reflect back from the tissues. The reflected waves are converted to an electrical impulse that is displayed on a small screen. The image is caused by differences in the tissues' ability to reflect the wave. Because there aren't many structures in the horse's leg, it's easy for a trained eye to read the ultrasound.
Tissues of different densities will cause the image to appear either darker (almost black) or lighter (white). For example, bone, the most dense, appears white on ultrasound.

Meadows: 'We're ready to take our country back'
Published: Tuesday, August 28, 2012 at 8:05 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, August 28, 2012 at 8:05 p.m.
TAMPA, Fla. — Mark Meadows had more than just the North Carolina delegates cheering in the aisles Tuesday when he said "We still believe in America and its greatness" as he stood before those gathered at the Republican National Convention.
Meadows, who is running for the 11th Congressional District seat, gave no quarter as he spoke of the Democrats and President Barack Obama.
"We have a president who wants to blame America for the problems," he said.
And with a strong, almost solemn voice, he addressed the right-to-life issue in the context of freedom of religion.
"We have a president who tramples our First Amendment rights to religious freedom by requiring all taxpayers to fund abortion," he said. "We need public servants who respect life and our religious freedom."
Meadows was among more than a dozen congressional hopefuls the party hoped to help in their election by giving national exposure to their campaigns and their issues.
He touched the party line that the people, not the government, is what will get the United States out of its economic problems with entrepreneurship and that it's not government that can recreate prosperity in the nation, but people who have the ability and desire.
The Constitution is "too noble to be rewritten," Meadows told a cheering convention.
"I'm Mark Meadows and I'm running for Congress. With Mitt Romney, we're ready to take our country back."

The febrile responses of 73 bacteremic patients were retrospectively studied using peak temperatures and 24-hour areas under the fever curve on the day of the positive cultures. These responses were compared to their respective creatinine clearances calculated with the Nielsen-Hansen nomogram. Patients with clearances ≥ 80 ml/min had a significantly greater febrile response than those with clearances ≤ 29 ml/min (P <.025). Patients with clearances between these groups had responses that were in a mid position but not significantly different from either group. We conclude that patients with impaired renal function do manifest fever in response to infection, but that it is quantitatively less than those with normal renal function. Because of this blunted response, minimal elevations of temperature in such patients warrant a diligent search for the presence of infection.

The Take Home Chef star reveals his secrets for cooking, eating, and living for health – plus his ideal kitchen.
Curtis Stone, as the Take Home Chef on your hit TLC series, now in its second season, you ambush people in the grocery store and follow them home to help them prepare dinner. What's the most surprising thing you learned from going into other people's homes?
People don't have much confidence in the kitchen.
What's the biggest thing you would change about most people's kitchens?
The kitchen should be a place you are proud of and want to spend time. Make it nice and surround yourself with beautiful food, natural light, and good music.
Do you have any New Year's resolutions for 2009?
I am going to learn how to speak Spanish, which will probably turn into something to do with food. If you can get your head around another language, you can get your head around another cuisine.
What's one food we should all eat more of in 2009?
Fresh vegetables. The other day, I was munching on a raw carrot that was so sweet and delicious. We need to appreciate simple things. Not everything has to be covered in sauce.
In fact, you yourself start every day with a smoothie. Why?
I started a while ago when I was given a great blender. I throw in fruit with orange juice and blend it up. The energy you get from fresh fruit is a great way to start the day. It cleanses the system, keeps you regular, boosts your energy, and rehydrates your body after a night's sleep.
What about coffee? Do you need that in the morning to get going, too?
I drink two cups a day that I make myself in an espresso machine. Coffee doesn't have many positive health attributes, but I don't think it's terrible if you drink it in moderation.
If that is your worst health habit, what's your best health habit?
I swim most mornings. I run and then jump in the pool before I start my day. I laugh a lot, too, which I think is important.

I am 4 weeks, 1 day post-loss and started spotting this morning. I had not been spotting for over 2 weeks!!
AF did not return for 10-18 months with my first two children, but that was probably because I was breastfeeding. So since I never got the opportunity to breastfeed this time around, I am not sure what to expect.
What were your experiences?

I would like to know if there is a way to have the dock always there when running an App fullscreen in lion?
It is very unlikely that Apple will ever support this request officially, as it would go against their whole "full-screen" philosophy. However, it ought to be possible to create a SIMBL hack which achieves it.
If you do want the dock visible when using an app - perhaps the best solution is not to use fullscreen, but simply make the app window large by using the green traffic light button or dragging the edges.

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?

A2 Air Force Lamb Leather Bomber Waist Military Jacket USA made in your choice of fine Italian Lambskin or Brushed Lamb
The A2 Air Force Military Bomber
The A-2 Air Force is the standby of flying men. W.W.II aces lament ever having turned theirs in. It\'s a great jacket that can be worn at a business meeting, the movies or soaring through the clouds. It differs from the Navy G-1 in that it has a plain one-piece back. (Sometimes it must have a seam with the small lamb skins.) It has smart epaulets. Both the collar and the pocket flaps have hidden snaps. The front of the jacket has an outside wind flap that conceals the zipper. Our knit ribbing is top quality and if you want to order one size larger than your sports coat size you won\'t find the waistband hanging slack. Outside pockets have hidden side entry. (We can close them on request.) San Diego Leather is just about the only company that goes to the trouble of giving the A2 inside pockets—one gun pocket and one breast pocket. It is available in Cowhide, Goatskin, Brushed Lamb and Italian Lamb and Now Deerskin! The Lambs are tanned to be soft and natural and are ideal for casual and dress wear but not long wearing. The Deerskin is equally soft but very long wearing. This is the military sizing that has not changed since WWII and we suggest going one up from your regular jacket size for a typical fit and buying even larger for a loose fit. Sizes Available = Men's 36 - 60 Regular and Long.
|USA made in your choice of fine leathers: Cowhide, Lambskin, Deerskin and Brushed Lamb
|Italian Lambskin Dark Brown or Black is tanned to be soft and natural and makes a very nice jacket. Sometimes because of smaller skins the back panel cannot be one-piece. Brushed Lamb Tan or Chocolate is a vintage look, like the smooth leather has worn down to suede. It takes 6-7 hides and no two jacket look alike.
from $325.00
from $295.00
|Optional Leather Cuff and Waistband Please click to order this and your jacket will be made with leather cuffs that snap and a leather waistband with leather covered elastic at the sides for comfort. If button does not take you to the option please add under comments when ordering.

Good evening all!
obama has just STOPPED COUNTING 9 MILLION PEOPLE
they are NOT in the u-3 bucket that is reported - but they are NOT in the u-6 bucket conservatives like to point to
the number of people NOT counted has NEVER been changed this radically
Gotta link where Mark got that?
Paul Ryan needs to address it.
there is nothing statistical about how that number is arrived at - its just a number they make up with no backup of data
i missed the link - it will be on his site just after the show ends
but this article explains a LOT about it - especially the first part - later in the article it gets a little math nerdy - but its still not hard to understand

The Subsidy Tease — Part II
The energy bill passed by Congress last December originally contained a beneficial if temporary set of financial incentives to spur the growth of renewable energy technologies in the United States.
The bill included a renewable energy portfolio standard (RPS) that would require states to acquire part of their electric power from renewable resources. The RPS would have guaranteed a market for these technologies — one of the ways to help a new industry establish a foothold in the economy.
The energy bill also contained an extension of the Production Tax Credit (PTC) — a tax break for emerging renewable energy industries that Congress has a history of approving for only a year or two at a time. (See "The Subsidy Tease — Part I".)
The PTC and a package of other clean-energy incentives would have been funded by taking back about $12 billion in tax breaks from the oil industry. The trade-off was sensible not only because the oil industry doesn't need the money, but because in some small symbolic measure, the repeal would have helped level the playing field for those young renewable energy industries trying to compete against oil, gas and coal industries that have been fattened for generations by the nation's taxpayers.
When the White House yelled "TAX INCREASE" and threatened to veto the energy bill, Congress backed off.
As a result, many of the energy efficiency incentives contained in the Energy Policy Act of 2005 died on December 31 and others will expire in a few months. They include incentives for efficiency in commercial buildings; tax credits for installing efficient furnaces, air conditioners, water heaters, windows and other improvements in existing homes; incentives for manufacturers to make high-efficiency refrigerators, dishwashers and washing machines; the tax credit for residential solar system installation; and a tax credit for plug-in hybrid vehicles.
Because the future of the PTC and investment tax credits for renewables is uncertain, four of America's trade associations for the renewables industry — including solar, wind, hydro power and geothermal energy — report that sales and new projects already are disappearing.
The head of the Solar Energy Industries Association predicts, for example, that 80 utility-sized solar electric projects, promising hundreds of thousands of construction jobs and more than 20,000 permanent jobs, will not be completed unless the tax credits are extended quickly.
On its face, it would seem that extending and expanding federal incentives for energy efficiency and renewable energy would be good economic stimulus, creating new jobs and new disposable income for Americans as their energy bills went down. The Senate Finance Committee apparently thought so, too. Earlier this month it added the package of clean-energy incentives to the economic stimulus bill designed to help blunt a recession.
Unfortunately, the Committee once again proposed to flirt with the clean energy industries rather than forge a long-term relationship, by extending the PTC for only two more years. In any case, tax incentives for efficiency and renewables didn't make it into the final bill.
With the price of oil hovering right around $100 a barrel, it has never been more clear that America needs energy efficiency and renewable energy more than the oil industry needs help from American taxpayers. While Congress and the White House pondered ways to head off a recession, Exxon Mobil reported that its sales last year reached $404 billion, the equivalent of nearly $1,300 every second, more than the gross domestic product of 120 countries. Its profits were nearly $41 billion, the highest ever recorded by any company. Chevron reported profits of nearly $19 billion last year; Royal Dutch Shell reported profits of $31 billion, the largest ever for a British company.
Clean energy advocates in Congress say they'll try again this year to renew a suite of incentives scheduled for expiration. They should move quickly. Randy Swisher, Executive Director of the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) says the PTC needs to be extended at least eight months before a scheduled expiration date to avoid a slowdown in an industry's development. That means that Congress must act by May of 2008.
I recommend a few other "shoulds". Congress should pay for clean-energy incentives by rolling back the unconscionable and unnecessary tax breaks for Big Oil. Congress should extend tax incentives for solar, wind, geothermal and hydro-electricity for 10 years, not two. Congress should emphasize the economic stimulus these tax incentives will produce with new jobs and new disposable income for energy consumers — not a one-time check in the mail, but energy savings month after month. Congress should put these provisions in a separate bill whose fate is not complicated by other issues, and bring the bill to both floors for up-and-down votes.
As the 2008 congressional elections approach, let it be crystal clear which Members favor business as usual over the nation's economic and environmental health.
— Bill B.
4 Responses to The Subsidy Tease — Part II
Bill B. wrote … let it be crystal clear which Members favor business as usual over the nation's economic and environmental health.
Yes. We all need to help get the word out in our state (senatorial elections) and in our district (as all representatives are up for election).
The election is in November, long past when the PTC will lapse. Am I right to infer that PTC is now attached to the senate version of the stimulus package which is "in conference"? If so, political action must be directed at the House of Representatives, especially those members serving on the conference committee.
I also think it would be useful to have an itemized list of the subsidies provided to oil companies and to alternatives as well.
A great organization that tracks the voting record of our congresscritters on environment and climate issues is the League of Conservation Voters at http://www.lcv.org
They post a "Dirty Dozen" list of the most anti-environmental members, an they raise funds to campaign against them.
A bill to extend the PTC for wind power–a vital component of one of the real, workable solutions–would certainly figure in their scorecard, and will presumably split on green/brown voting lines. Similarly for a new separate bill for an RPS to support solar PV, micro-hydro, biomass, and other honest sustainable energy sources.
I've been reading up on the solar PV industry, and it's pretty clear that we can expect some serious gains in price-performance in the next one to two years.
Meanwhile, to change the congress we desperately need voters across the land to bump up climate change to a high priority on their "issue list" and to send that message to the candidates. The last issue list I saw on the news had the economy, Iraq, and other topics, with no spot in the top five for anything about the environment.
