How do Zoo veterinarians test and tend to animals' eyesight? Let's see.
By Devin Murphy
There's a special thrill when eyes meet at the Smithsonian's National Zoo. Guest and resident gaze at each other, briefly and deeply bound as if nothing else existed. That current of contact is a key part of the magic of zoogoing.

How well, though, does the animal actually see its human admirer? That depends. Some species have stronger eyes than others. And individual animals, like humans, can have problems that impede their vision.
Keeping animals' eyes as healthy as possible poses a big challenge for the Zoo's keepers and veterinary staff. They're charged with monitoring the eyesight of the roughly 2,000 animals in the Zoo's care. Doing so takes hard work, constant vigilance, and some creative problem-solving.
Keeping an Eye on Eyes
Veterinarians monitor eye health in several ways. They conduct thorough ocular exams on almost every animal at the Zoo every two to three years as part of general checkups. During those exams, animals are anesthetized, and vets have the opportunity to examine the eyes up close, from the cornea and conjunctiva through to the retina and optic nerve. Veterinarians use ophthalmoscopes to see the eyes' inner structures. They do so by peering through the pupil. That can be difficult in smaller animals, whose pupils are tiny. If an animal receives a clean bill of health, it will likely not need another eye exam until its next checkup.
Between checkups, of course, keepers watch for any problems in this sensitive body part. Many animals try to hide weakness or illness, but they cannot hide ocular ailments well. Keepers may notice that an animal is holding one eye shut. An eye may also look milky, be inflamed, or leak excess discharge.
When unexpected issues such as these arise, vets perform impromptu exams. Depending on the problem, vets may not immediately anesthetize an animal for an unscheduled eye exam. They may monitor the animal for a few days to see how the problem changes. Sometimes it can improve on its own, and sometimes the way the problem unfolds over a day or two can help determine what is going on and how to best treat it. They can also perform basic tests to determine if an animal can see at all.
One test that gives them a good indication if an animal has impaired vision is checking the blink reflex. "Most mammals and birds have a hard time hiding blink reflexes," explains associate veterinarian Katharine Hope. In addition to checking the blink reflex, veterinarians can also do various things to determine if an animal can track an object visually. Hope may drop a cotton ball, toy, or favorite food item to the floor, or move a flashlight from side to side while watching to see if curious eyes follow the action.
If an animal is presenting with symptoms like excess discharge from an eye, vets may take a culture of the eye fluid and send it to the pathology lab. The results could show anything from a bacterial conjunctivitis ("pink eye") to aspergillus (a fungal infection). Based on laboratory results and exams, veterinarians determine how to proceed with treatment.

Opening Options
Oral medications are often easier to administer to certain zoo species than topical eye drops, and oral medications can be effective at treating certain eye diseases. But administering oral medications to a wild animal— even in captivity—is not as easy as saying "Open wide." Medications have to be hidden in food so animals take them. Depending on the dosage, that could mean temporarily altering an animal's feeding schedule.
Hope recently treated a peahen for an aspergillus infection. The bird had been spotted holding one of her eyes closed. It was milky, and she was not able to see out of it. Hope started the bird on oral antifungal medication. To Hope's delight, the bird responded quickly and well to the medication.
Last September, veterinarians also prescribed oral antibiotics for Mae, a 40-year-old white-cheeked gibbon. Keepers had noticed that she was squinting and had some discharge from one of her eyes. An eye culture sent to the pathology lab revealed that Mae had conjunctivitis. Oral antibiotics stopped Mae's eye from producing excess discharge and allowed her to open it normally again.
A more direct approach to fix ocular problems is topical treatment, or eye drops. But drops are harder to administer
In 2008, a gaboon viper had fluid buildup and inflammation around one of its eyes. Suzan Murray, the Zoo's chief veterinarian, performed surgery to drain the fluid. Afterward, the snake needed topical treatment to keep the incision clean and promote healing.
There was just one problem. The gaboon viper has two-inch fangs, the longest of any snake. They can inject enough venom to kill a human in 15 minutes. So gently dropping medicine into its eyes wasn't an option.
"With a venomous animal safety is our number-one concern," says Hope. "So we don't get very close without a safe plan in place." Instead, the veterinarians and reptile keepers relied on a special tool—a syringe pole. It's just what it sounds like: a pole with a syringe at the end. Deftly and gingerly handled, it allows a vet or keeper to get within three feet of the snake to administer topical medications. That's close enough to get the drops in the eye but safely out of striking distance.
Things were a bit easier with another patient the next year, male giant panda Tian Tian. He'd come down with "cherry eye" in 2009. His nictitating membrane, a bit of pink conjunctiva that acts like a third eyelid, was swelling and protruding. Being well trained to site through medical procedures in exchange for treats, Tian Tian sat patiently as the veterinarians and his keepers examined the problem and administered eye drops.
Surgical Solutions
Despite the drops, Tian Tian's eye failed to improve, and veterinarians determined that surgery was needed to remove the protruding membrane. Planning the procedure was a challenge. Although cherry eye is a fairly common problem in domestic dogs, there was no precedent for performing this surgery on a giant panda.
The veterinary team charted the least invasive course they could. They anesthetized Tian Tian and cut away the inflamed tissue, leaving as much of the membrane intact as possible. The groundbreaking surgery was a success, and Tian Tian has not had any problems since.
Dr. Seth Koch (Suzan Murray/NZP)
Anesthetizing an animal affords vets the best opportunity to perform surgery—usually. One supersize exception came when veterinary ophthalmologist Seth Koch, who has been donating his expertise to the Zoo since 1971, was due to operate on Shanthi, an Asian elephant. She had a corneal ulcer. "We sedated her," Koch recalls, "and she lay down on the wrong side. So the bad eye was down."
Flipping Shanthi over wasn't a possibility. So keepers and veterinary staff propped her head up like a car on a jack. Koch lay down on his back, slid underneath, and worked like a mechanic. It was, he says, the "funniest" situation he's encountered at the Zoo. After half an hour, Shanthi's eye was sutured, and the surgery was successful.
The stakes for surgery can be higher than simply improving an animal's vision, Koch explains. "The Komodo dragon with the cataract was exciting," he remembers. Back in 1997, the dragon, named Muffin, was slated to breed with Friendly, a larger male. But she had a cataract in one eye, and impaired vision might cause her to misread Friendly's behavior during mating. That could make her seem uninterested, spurring him to attack.
Muffin was transferred to a veterinary hospital in Virginia, which was better equipped for the procedure. There, Koch examined Muffin's eye with an operating microscope, then used an aspirator to clean it out and remove the cataract. The successful operation made national news.
Many Eyes, One Effort
Not every eye-care story ends neatly. Recently, veterinarians have been treating a Sinaloan milksnake. Every six months or so, fluid builds up in its eye. "We're not 100 percent sure why it's happening," says Hope. An operation similar to the one performed on the gaboon viper helps to control the fluid buildup and keep the snake comfortable.Scientists are also puzzling over why seals and sea lions are plagued with ocular ailments, often involving corneal troubles or cataracts. In general, they seem to have more eye problems than other zoo animals. Why? The answer might lie in the animals' environment. Prolonged exposure to sunlight and freshwater or saltwater may take a toll on the marine mammals' eyes.
Sea lions (Mehgan Murphy/NZP)
Each exam and surgery gives veterinarians an opportunity to learn more about ocular issues and health. "Each species has differences, and we're constantly learning what those differences are," explains Koch. "The apes are like man. The birds are reasonably alike. The big cats are like the little cats."
For a veterinarian, variations among animals can mean the difference between peering through a pinhole-size pupil or maneuvering beneath a behemoth. Yet every exam, each procedure shares a single goal: to ensure that the eye that gazes back at yours is as healthy as possible.

Edition Peters
This company came into being on December 1, 1800 when the Viennese composer Franz Anton Hoffmeister (1754-1812) and the local organist Ambrosius Kühnel (1770-1813) opened a concern in Leipzig known as the "Bureau de Musique." Along with publishing, the new firm included an engraving and printing works and a retail shop for selling printed music and instruments. The very first music published included chamber works by Haydn and Mozart, plus a 14-volume collected edition of keyboard works by Leipzig's own J. S. Bach, who was nearly forgotten by that time. When Hofmeister departed for Vienna in 1805, the young firm had already issued several works by the emerging Viennese composer, Ludwig Van Beethoven (Opp. 19-22; 39-42). Kühnel continued publishing new works, adding those of composers, Daniel Gottlob Türk, Tomasek, and Louis Spohr, who would have a long relationship with the firm.
After Kühnel's death, the enterprise was sold to Carl Friedrich Peters (1779-1827), a Leipzig bookseller. Despite difficuties arising from the aftermath of war (1813) and depression, Peters managed to add new works by Weber, Hummel, Klengel, and Ries to the growing catalog along with his name (now "Bureau de Musique C. F. Peters") before his death. The next owner was a manufacturer, Carl Gotthelf Siegmund Böhme (1785-1855), who published many works of J. S. Bach after the revival of interest in his work with the assistance of Carl Czerny, Siegfried Dehn, F. C. Griepenkerl and Moritz Hauptmann. Ownership of the company was transferred to a charity run by the City of Leipzig for a short period after Böhme's death (1855-1860).
A new era began with the sale of the company to a Berlin music and book retailer, Julius Friedländer, on April 21, 1860. By 1863, Friedländer took on a partner, Dr. Max Abraham (1831-1900), who was instrumental in transforming the firm into a major international publisher. Abraham recognized the vast potential in improvements to music printing that were introduced by the Leipzig engraver [Gottlieb Röder], launching the famous "Edition Peters" inprint in 1867. This series competed vigorously with Breitkopf und Härtel's similar Volksausgabe (People's edition) series, launched at exactly the same time. Two color schemes were used for the covers of this revolutionary inexpensive series: a light green cover for works of earlier composers not affected by copyright restrictions; and pink covers for new, original works acquired by Peters or licensed from other publishers. By 1880, the year Abraham took over the directorship, Peters became increasingly active in issuing new works by contemporary composers of the era. By 1900, fresh works from composers like Brahms, Bruch, Grieg, Köhler, Moszkowski, Reger, Sinding and Wagner greatly enriched the catalog.
Abraham's successor was his nephew, Henri Hinrichsen (1868-1942), who added the works of composers like Mahler, Pfitzner, Reger, Schoenberg, and Wolf. The works of Richard Strauss that were originally issued by Joseph Aibl (later Universal) were acquired by Hinrichsen for Peters in 1932. Hinrichsen's sons Max (1901-1965), Walter (1907-1969), and Hans-Joachim (1909-1940) all entered the business in the 1930s.
Following the advent of the Nazi regime in Germany, Max Hinrichsen moved to London, where in 1938 he founded Hinrichsen Edition (renamed Edition Peters London in 1975), and his brother Walter moved to New York where he founded C. F. Peters Corp. in 1948. By 1940, the Nazi regime forced Henri and Hans-Joachim Hinrichsen to turn over the company to Johannes Petschull (1901-2001), who later established the Frankfurt company in 1950 in partnership with the Hinrichsen heirs Walter and Max Hinrichsen.
In spite of suffering a similar degree of damage as other Leipzig publishers from aerial bombing during the war, the Leipzig facility was re-opened in 1947, and transferred to state ownership of the East German regime by 1949. Its first director was Georg Hillner, who was succeeded by musicologist Bernd Pachnicke in 1969. During the communist era, Peters Leipzig issued contemporary works of East German composers like Dessau, Eisler, and Geisler along with those of Soviet composers like Khachaturian and Shostakovich in addition to a fair number of urtext editions of works by Beethoven, Chopin, Faure, Mahler, Scriabin, and Vivaldi, among others. Following German reunification in 1989, the Leipzig concern was absorbed by the Frankfurt firm, who had acquired the catalogues of M.P. Belaieff (1971), Schwann (1974) and C.F. Kahnt (1989).
With the aim of merging both their editorial experience and their resources, the Peters Edition Ltd. (London), the C.F. Peters Corporation (New York), the C.F. Peters Musikverlag (Frankfurt/Main) and the Leipzig firms of the Edition Peters united in August 2010 to form the [Peters Group] . The owners of this new group are The Hinrichsen-Foundation as well as Martha and Henry Hinrichsen. The steering consist of a board led by Nicholas Riddle. At the beginning of 2013, Peters bought back the "Musikbibliothek Peters". Due to this circumstance, it was decided to concentrate the two German branches in one place and at the end of June 2014, the Frankfurt branch (C.F. Peters Ltd & Co. KG) closed its doors, moving back to Leipzig. As for the new name of the company a new logo and layout might be expected in the near future.
Special tips for date determination
Note: Peters is notorious for the practice of affixing "scarecrow" copyright notices to later printings of works first published well before 1900, perhaps the absolute worst of any European publisher. This unfortunate practice was well under way during by Nazi era of 1933-45. Any Peters copyright claim for an edition published before World War II, unless it is for a new work published the very first time, should be regarded as highly dubious. Hopefully, the following compilation of Edition and plate number data, along with confirmed publication dates, will greatly facilitate the dating of Peters scores. Below are some general tips about Peters scores and the process of dating any particular copy.
- The imprint was given as Leipzig and Berlin from Nov. 1867 - March 1880. Leipzig alone from April 1880 onward. The Frankfurt and New York offices did not even open until after World War II, and both reprinted the earlier Leipzig scores extensively.
- The practice of employing pink covers for the works of composers still under copyright (like Grieg) and green covers for editions of public domain composers (like Mozart) started in 1867 or shortly thereafter.
- Title page colors were black and white, ca.1867-1874; black, brown and white, 1875-ca.1890; brownish-red (sepia), ca.1890-ca.1900; red ca.1900 - ca. 1919; black and white ca. 1920-onward.
- Title page frames: ca.1867-1876 - Cherub in upper left holds a string or arrow; ca.1876-1877 - Cherub is holding harp; ca.1878 and onward - Cherub is inside the frame.
- The footnote on first music page mentioning C. G. Röder, the engraver, started in the 1870s. The "Edition Peters" footnotes on all music pages started in the 1890s.
- If the original back cover is present, check the lower left or right-hand corner for two numerals in very small type. These indicate the year in which the back cover of the copy in hand was printed. Thus, 86 = 1886, 04 = 1904, etc. This should be compared with any copyright claim, etc.
- Printings from 1917 and 1918 include the term "Kriegsausgabe" in the upper right-hand corner. In addition, watermarks include an iron cross in place of a six-point star.
- Paper from 1918-1924 tends to be exceptionally brittle due to rosin sizing. These were printed by Leipzig firm CG Nauman. In the mid-twenties, Peters adopted a new printer, Poeschel & Trepte with significantly better paper.
- The iron-cross watermark was re-introduced in 1935 through the destruction of Peter's facilities in the Second World War.

OAKLAND -- A 16-year-old Oakland High School student accused of killing a San Jose paramedic during an attempted carjacking in the Oakland hills pleaded not guilty to the crime Monday as his father claimed the teenager was framed.
Christian Burton is accused of killing Quinn Boyer on the morning of April 2 during an alleged attempted carjacking near the intersection of Keller Avenue and Hansom Drive. Police say Boyer was sitting in his parked car along the side of the road when Burton and five other juveniles drove up in a stolen car.
Police said Burton got out of the stolen car, walked up to Boyer, 34, and fired a gun point-blank at Boyer's head. Boyer then tried to drive away but crashed his car down an embankment, authorities said.
Boyer was alive when police and paramedics arrived but remained unconscious for two days at a hospital and then died on April 4.
Burton's father, Richard Burton, said outside of court Monday that he does not believe his son is capable of killing another human being.
"My son is innocent in this case, I just don't believe it," Richard Burton, 39, said. "Christian is not capable of doing this, as far as an alleged killer, he is not that type of kid."
Richard Burton said he drove his son to school on April 2 and watched as he walked into the building. He said he would have been notified if his son skipped a class.
In addition, Richard Burton said that his son was routinely bullied and believes others pointed fingers at Christian Burton as a scapegoat.
"My son knows right from wrong," Richard Burton said. "I think that it might just be a mishap in identity."
Police have said that Christian Burton admitted being at the scene of the shooting and admitted pulling the trigger on the gun that killed the off-duty paramedic.
Boyer, a Dublin resident, was in the Oakland hills after taking his father home from a doctor's appointment. He had worked as a paramedic for Santa Clara County since 2008.
Five other juveniles, including a 13-year-old boy, have been charged in connection to the killing. The Alameda County District Attorney's Office, however, has refused to release any details of the charges filed against the other teens.

As the plane's wheels touched down at DIA, a melody came to Jamie Laurie and he jotted down a few sentences to go with it.
"Hands in the air/
Presidents, prime ministers/
They said that we didn't care/
But that isn't fair/
We're the circle in the square."
It was February 2011 and Laurie and his fellow Flobots emcee, Stephen Brackett, were just returning from a two-week trip to the Middle East. Half of the trip was a vacation and during the other week the two men worked with Denver organization Seeking Common Ground, which works with grassroots peace groups. The men were only a few hundred miles away from Egypt - in Amman, Jordan - when President Hosni Mubarak stepped down.
"Jordan was alive with celebration," Laurie said. "Just being in the region and feeling that piece of history take place was incredible. Being that close to it, we brought the inspiration back with us."
At first glance, Laurie didn't quite understand the very words that he'd written: "We're the circle in the square; when I wrote that I didn't know what it meant at first," he said.
Then it came to him.
"When people would talk about the Arab world they'd say 'they can't have democracy. It's like trying to fit a square peg in a circle hole.' They'd speak derisively, like people in the Middle East didn't want democracy. But then there was this circle of people in Tahrir Square in Egypt and the image on CNN was literally of a circle in a square. It was like a cosmic rebuke: 'We do want democracy.'"
That trip to the Middle East, the spreading Arab Spring and the Occupy Movements taking place in the U.S. were the backdrop to which the entire album was written and recorded.
"There was a lot of energy around the world," said Brackett on the band's website. "You could taste freedom in the air, it was a palpable thing. It informed the process in a subtle and broad way. We were inspired by that, we were witnesses like everyone else. We were rich because of it."
Words with meaning
The words - "the circle in the square" - went on to form the chorus for the title track on Flobots latest album, "The Circle in the Square," which was released in August of 2012.
The phrase has a deeper meaning for Laurie and his bandmates as well.
"We're kind of a square peg in a round hole musically," he said. "We combine hip hop with other genres: We kind of fit in alternative radio but kind of don't. Our fan base isn't one genre of people, instead we have all kinds of different people coming to our shows - outcasts, rejects and people who don't fit in - and we like it that way."
The Flobots - co-emcees Brackett and Laurie, along with bassist Jesse Walker, drummer Kenny Ortiz and classically trained violist and vocalist Mackenzie Gault --return to Vail today for a free show at Checkpoint Charlie for the Winter Mountain Games happening this weekend.
Brackett and Laurie are longtime friends. They met in Denver, in the fourth grade, when their first shared obsession was comic books. But words became more important than pictures when they discovered hip-hop. After college, the two reunited in Denver, where their first gig was a Rock the Vote show; from the beginning the group has put out music with a message, be it political or otherwise. The lyrics Brackett and Laurie sing tend to be introspective, and tackle heavy issues like the war, the environment, corporate greed or the disparity of wealth.
The band's hit song "Handlebars," off the album "Fight with Tools," is probably its most recognizable - even people unfamiliar with the group will likely recognize the catchy tune. It propelled the Denver group into the national scene. They were signed to a major label, toured internationally, performed on late night TV and even opened for Metallica in front of 40,000 people.
After that song took off, there was a "cognitive shift" among the band members.
"We had to go 'let's believe in ourselves enough to take this seriously,'" Laurie said. "This isn't just a hobby, this is a career path."
And if there's one thing the band takes truly seriously, it's putting on a memorable live show.
"That's what we're really known for," Laurie said. "The reason we even get to do our music is our live show is what got us known in Denver. People give us a good report card on the show. So if you've never heard of us, and don't know if you're into us, come and check us out and you'll be converted. And it's free anyway, so why not?"

This updated article concludes that section 4 on page 3 heading "Science, the Polish Way" under a sub-heading 4.1 "Lack of understanding", the second paragraph under this same heading is the same as the first paragraph on page 206 under this section.
61.The paragraph at page 207 starting "The Poles have done nothing to establish whether or not there is a possibility that Prussian Blue develops in walls...." is a repetition of paragraph 43 ("Ignoring unsolved, but critical problems of the article") (continued in 4.4 "Ignoring peer opinions").
62.Page 208 stems from page 4 of the article. Page 209 stems from page 4 of the article.

text: With all the mentions the book Retribution Falls, first in the Tales of the Ketty Jay series, has been having over the last year or so, I was surprised to not be able to find a thread particularly dedicated to this book/series (other than some discussion in a general thread about the author). Anyways, I received the other day the paperback version which was released this April, read it and really enjoyed it. I see the comparisons that have been made to Firefly, and it really does give the same type of vibe. Really liked it. My favorite character was probably Jez. She seemed the most interesting to me, with her struggle to maintain what she is, accept what she is, and longing for a group of people that might just accept her... a place to belong. Plus, she kicked ass. I would like to see the crew interacting more with the outside world, I think the best moments are when Frey was arguing with the whispermonger, the knights, and the ex. Also, when Cracke and Jez went to the party it was nice. And as it has been mentioned a lot already, the cover art is beautiful. Also, my paperback came with a Captain's Log at the end, did the other versions you guys might have read have that? I thought it was a very nice touch and gives better insight into Frey. The sequel, Black Lung Captain, is coming out in July 29, who's got that on their ASAP to read list? I sure am reading it as soon as I get my hands on it. It has a nice cover too, Werthead posted it in another thread. My Retribution Falls paperback has a preview for it at the end, will check it out tonight or something. Anyways, Retribution Falls was a very fun book and I'm highly anticipating the rest of the journey with this crew. Oh, and Bess is awesome too.

In 2013, we've gotten hundreds of photos of wild snow leopards, taken in the field by remote-sensor research cameras. These pictures are crucial for our scientists, as they allow them to assess cat populations over time, as well as migrations of cats from one mountain range to the next. For most of us, they're just stunning to look at.
Here are some of 2013′s highlights from the cat-walks of Central Asia!
Debbie Jones says:
This is the most beautiful of all the Big Cats, I think, Just once I would love to see one in person.

Mark B says:
@ Debbie Jones. I suppose you mean see one in the wild. But quite a few zoos exhibit them. If you are lucky enough (as I am) to live close to such a zoo, please take advantage of the opportunity to see these magnificent felines "up close and personal".

Kathy says:
I too will never see a wild snow leopard…..how many do? But last week I visited the pair in the San Francisco Zoo and had a an up close and personal – and unexpected – experience with the female. She was making rounds of her large enclosure while I and a couple other rapt viewers watched. Suddenly she ran down the path that went past the large viewing window and sort of stood/jumped up and with both huge, fluffy fore paws slapped the window and then stood there looking straight into my eyes for several seconds. Electrifying seconds I might add. I was stunned, and admittedly frightened by the sudden movement, such that I was moved to tears. I will never forget it.

Alzheimer drawback for Elan
08.08.2012 - Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson and Elan will end the development of bapineuzumab. The antibody was thought to become a treatment for Alzheimer's disease with hundreds of millions in sale.
The decision came after the antibody targeting amyloid beta did not meet the co-primary endpoints of change in cognitive and functional performance in a phase III study in patients lacking a mutation in the apolipoprotein E epsilon. The trial was led by J&J's research affiliate Janssen Cilag. Some experts said the result came as no surprise as the window of success was very small. Nevertheless, Bapineuzumab is one of the most advanced antibodies targeting amyloid beta. For Elan's future, the study failure could have a large effect. The company was responsible to pay for 49,9% of the trial costs. That leads to a US-$117.3m non-cash impairment charge in the third quarter of 2012. Elan shares fell more than 12%. Analysts speculated that the the success of bapineuzumab could influence a potential sale of the company, noting that Elan's partner Biogen Idec could step in at the right price.http://www.european-biotechnology-news.com/news/news/2012-03/alzheimer-drawback-for-elan.html

Main Page | Risk Factors | Symptoms | Diagnosis | Treatment | Screening | Reducing Your Risk | Talking to Your Doctor | Living With Fibromyalgia | Resource Guide
Fibromyalgia can be difficult to diagnose. Many of the symptoms are similar to other disorders. A history and physical exam will be done. Your doctor will discuss your pain symptoms and check for tender (trigger) points. Tender points are areas of pain throughout your body. Symptoms of chronic and widespread pain must be present for more than 3 months. The doctor will also discuss how much fatigue, waking unrefreshed, and thinking problems you are having.
Testing for Tender (Trigger) Points —According to criteria established by the American College of Rheumatology, there are 18 specific tender points around the body that are potentially painful when palpated in people with fibromyalgia. These points are located around the neck, shoulder, chest, hip, knee, and elbow regions. Most healthy people have only a few tender points.
A diagnosis of fibromyalgia is usually made if 11 of these 18 points result in pain when palpated.
Blood Tests —Blood tests cannot identify fibromyalgia. However, your doctor may order these tests to rule out other illnesses that have similar symptoms, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, Lyme disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and other musculoskeletal disorders.

LETTER: UA system has some explaining to do
Published: Monday, July 1, 2013 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, June 30, 2013 at 11:46 p.m.
Dear Editor: The Tuscaloosa News is to be commended for the editorial that ran in the June 14 issue.
The essence of the editorial addressed the failure of Chancellor Robert Witt and the university board of trustees to provide a satisfactory explanation for the $535,000 payment to former President Guy Bailey.
There continue to be issues that are never explained. Nor does it appear that either the board or Witt believe that they need to provide any explanations. They behave as if they are not accountable to anyone.
The recent hiring of Josiah Bonner and paying him $350,000 is another questionable action. The reasons given for his hire fail to be satisfactory. The job he allegedly has been hired to do is very vague and ambiguous.
There are certainly questions about the legality of hiring him. Was the job advertised? When and where was the advertisement? Was there a job description before the hiring? Did others have the opportunity to apply? Were they interviewed? Why not? Is Bonner a permanent employee? If he is permanent, then federal law requires that the job be advertised and allows for others to apply and be interviewed.
The relevant federal law is the Equal Employment Opportunity Act, and it became law to prevent this kind of cronyism. It might be well to notify the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission about this hire. Those making these decisions need to be held accountable to those of us who help pay the bills. People should be outraged with what is going on in Tuscaloosa.

CHAR-KOOSTA PUBLISHED »Y CONFEDERATED SAUSH AND KOOTENAI TRIBES, FLATHEAD AGENCY, MONT. Vol. 4 — No. 1 January 1960 Pend d'Oreilles Once Roamed Throughout State This picture commemorates the Pend-d'Oreille Indians that once occupied the Ronan area. At the time of the white intrusion, the Pend d'Oreille had been driven westward across the Rocky Mountains, no doubt by the Blackfoot after the acquisition of horses, and were occupying the region near Flathead Lake and the Mission mountains in western Montana. Legends among the Pend d'Oreille supplement the findings of present day archaeologists, archcological findings indicate that at one time the Pend d'Oreilles had penetrated into the center of the plains area of Montana. With the arrival of the whites, the Pend d'Oreille were a larger Tribe than their closely related and allied neighbors, the Flathead Salish, whose territory Jay to the south of them. Apparently at one time, perhaps at the time one group went to the plains, the Pend d'-Onille separated, with one group becoming known as the lower Pend d'Oreille because of their habitat in Northern Idaho and Eastern Washington. Repre- sentatives of the Montana group have been designated the Upper Pend d'Oreille. Altho' some of the old time Indians claim that the Lower Pend d'Oreille should be called the Kalispell, for they too, speak very much or nearly the same language as the Upper Pend d'Oreille, although the meanings and words in some instances are quite different. In 1854, the Jesuits built St. Ignatius mission in the center of the Upper Pend-d'Oreille territory because it seemed to the priests that from that location better service could be given to more Lndians. When in 1855, Governor Stevens arrived in western Montana to conclude a treaty with the Indians of this region, he insisted that the Flathead Salish leave their home and move into a reservation to be created on Pend d'Oreille land, one of the reasons stemmed from the fact that the Pend d'Oreille were the larger Tribe, hence dislocation would result if the Salish moved. Unfortunately, over the years the Pend d'Oreille have lost their identity Health Offices Moved to St. Ignatius On January 11, the Indian Health office moved from the Agency at Dixon to the old Health Clinic building on old Highway US 93 near the St. Ignatius Mission in St. Ignatius, Montana. The purpose of the move, according to Dr. Charles S. McCammon, Billings Area Medical Office, USPHS, Division of Indian Health, is to locate the office nearer the center of Indian population. Telephone number for the Indian Health Office is SH 5-2442; for the Dental Clinic SH 5-2457; mailing address is P. O. Box 797, St. Ignatius. According to Dr McCammon the old clinic building has been completely renovated providing space not only for the business office and a modern dental clinic but also examining rooms and a nurses workroom. The examining rooms will be used by the District Health Department, Poison, for well child and immunization clinic. Dr. McCammon also announced that Dr. James K. Harrower, Dental Officer for the Flathead Health Unit, has been designated as the Officer in Charge at the PHS unit. He further explained that Mr. Arnold Dupuis would continue to have the primary responsibility for the contract patient care program. "We had hoped to have a medical officer assigned to the Flathead Unit," he said, "¦but we have been unsuccessful in efforts to recruit a medical doctor. The designation of Dr. Harrower as Officer in Charge was made because he is the ranking employee and a professional staff member." New Procedures for Authorization Dr. McCammon pointed out that because of the continuing rising cost of the Flathead medical care program it had become necessary to insist on strict compliance with regulation regarding eligibility. "It has become necessary to reduce the cost of the operation of this program by at least 25 percent of last year's costs," he said. Dr. McCammon outlined the following procedures to be followed in obtaining medical and hospital care: 1. Must complete Social Economic Form before authorization. 2. Authorization must be obtained before PHS will pay for care. 3. Emergency care first priority. 4. Procedure on emergencies. 5. Outpatient care. 6. Expectant Mothers. 7. Elective Care—elective drugs. as a different group and through intermarriage have fused and become known only as the Flathead. Only a very few old timers still cling to their own Tribal distinction. Pend d'Oreilles shown abouve, sitting, left to right Louie Durgeloh, Larry Parker and Bill Durgeloh. Standing, Mrs De-lores Durgeloh, Pat Adams and Mrs Adeline Adams. These persons and other members of the Pend d'Oreille. have formed their own dance troup and are" available for celebrations or programs-.-Pat Adams is acting as manager for the group.

VAIL, Colorado - The Shelton Smith Collection is celebrating its first anniversary Sunday with a special exhibition of one-of-a-kind Christmas treasures.
"As we celebrate our first anniversary in Vail, we are thankful for our many blessings and all the new friends we have made from all over the world," said owner Shelton Smith. "During the past year we have placed great art in some of the finest homes in the Vail Valley and more than a dozen different states. Vail has become a world-class art center and we are delighted to be here and be part of it."
While Smith's gallery is only a year old, he and his family have been Vail regulars since the early 1970s.
For the holidays the gallery is showing several special items, including a rare King James Bible printed in 1639.
"This is an almost 400-year-old treasure in excellent condition, seldom seen outside of a museum," Smith said.
The gallery is also exhibiting the original, three-volume set of Bill Wittliff's 1987 screenplay for the motion picture "Lonesome Dove."
Artists on display in the gallery include G. Harvey, Martin Grelle, Bill Anton, Curt Walters, Americo Makk, Robert Wood, Jim Norton and G. Russell Case.
The Shelton Smith Collection is located at the Covered Bridge on Bridge Street in Vail Village. To learn more, call 970-476-0100 or go to www.sheltonsmith.com.

A lot of people think Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or ADHD only affects kids. But doctors say adults can have it too.
Impulsive, disorganized, restless. All of us feel like that some time in our lives. But when those feelings are constant and severe, they may be symptoms of a real medical illness.
Doctors say ADHD used to be thought of primarily as a disorder of childhood. Symptoms of inattention, distraction, trouble keeping things in mind, impulse dysregulation, calling out in class, somehow are magically supposed to go away as children go through adolescence. They now know that most of the time they don't.
Studies show about four-percent of adults have ADHD, that's about eight million Americans. Most of the time, a doctor never makes the diagnosis.
Common symptoms include:
Short attention span
Low energy level
Some ADHD patients say it makes relationships very hard, it makes working very hard and it makes keeping your lifestyle and personal business difficult.
Doctors say they are more likely to be divorced or separated, under perform and have more ADHD symptoms on the job.
Talk to your doctor if you think you have ADHD.

Location: Soil Management Research
Project Number: 5060-11610-001-00
Start Date: May 10, 2010
End Date: May 03, 2015
The project will generate information for balancing crop production goals with harvest of biomass for biofuel; develop management options to decrease greenhouse gas emissions and increase C storage in soil; evaluate an approach to remediate eroded soils; and provide information on crop response to climate change. Plot and on-farm approaches will be used to assess changes in soil carbon, greenhouse gas emission, soil quality indicators and production as a consequence of crop biomass harvest. This information will be identified locally and contribute to the national GRACEnet database on greenhouse gas emission and carbon storage. It will also contribute to national recommendations and guidelines through the REAP project. A farm-scale evaluation of field-scale soil movement (conducted to decrease soil spatial variability) will be used to develop improved management practices that restore productivity to eroded soils. This information will improve predictions of water and agrochemical transport in eroded soils, the response of soil biological communities to soil disturbance, and the short-term impact of soil erosion on soil C dynamics and soil productivity. This project will identify physiological and biochemical markers to develop or select cultivars adapted to climate change to develop environmentally- and economically-sustainable and diversified cropping systems that reduce risk and increase the probability of profitable crop production.

VAIL - Closing Day has arrived and celebrations will be had, but there are some things to keep in mind when heading to Vail and Beaver Creek on Sunday.
The annual Chair 4 at 4 (p.m.) party has become an end-of-season tradition at Vail Mountain, but the resort and the U.S. Forest Service are looking to its patrons to celebrate responsibly if the tradition is to continue.
"Playing it safe is critical to everyone having a good time on Closing Day," said Don Dressler, snow ranger for the White River National Forest. "Take care of each other and enjoy your public lands responsibly."
Vail Mountain spokeswoman Liz Biebl said the typical end-of-season procedures will be in place Sunday. The resorts asks skiers and snowboarders to cooperate with ski patrol and Vail Mountain staff when asked to pick up trash or to exit the mountain at the end of the day. Once Vail Ski Patrol does its final sweep, the mountain will be closed and will remain closed until summer operations resume in early June.
The resort and the U.S. Forest Service remind guests at both resorts to abide by the Colorado Ski Safety Act and "Your Responsibility Code," as well as observe and obey all posted signs and closures. Those who break laws or rules of skiing could be fined or arrested.
"Guests are reminded that using any ski lift or trail while impaired by alcohol or controlled substances is prohibited under the Colorado Ski Safety Act. Guests are also not permitted to ride lifts, ski or snowboard on Vail Mountain with open containers or exposed quantities of alcohol, coolers, suitcase-like carriers, barbecues or similar items," according to a statement released by Vail Mountain. "One daypack per person will be permitted on Closing Day, provided the bag fits in a five-gallon container. Bags that do not meet the requirement will only be allowed if they contain no alcohol or controlled substances."
Breaking the rules can have serious consequences, as evidenced by punishments in years past. Anyone ticketed, arrested or caught throwing snowballs will lose skiing and snowboarding privileges for the 2013-14 season. The same goes for those who disobey signs and closures, "or engage in other inappropriate behavior."
Biebl said the resort just needs to be able to manage the celebrations and ensure guests have a good time in a safe environment.
"We have no intention of pulling the plug on everything, we just need to keep it at a manageable level," she said.
A couple of seasons ago, the resort began scheduling the annual World Pond Skimming Championships in Golden Peak at 3 p.m., which helps disperse people around the mountain so everyone isn't gathered at Chair 4 at 4. Following pond skimming, a free outdoor concert by reggae artist Jimmy Cliff takes place at Solaris in Vail Village.
Skiers and riders offered some tips on the Vail Daily's Facebook page about how and where to close out the season.
"Wear as much '80s neon as possible. Include head bands, big hair, Vuarnet sunglasses and skinny skis," wrote Kurt Desautels. "If you make it to Chair 4 at 4, just remember that most of the people skiing down at the end will be intoxicated."
Shane Kennedy breaks it down into two categories: "Got kids? Go watch some pond skimming. No kids? Top of (Chair) 4."
At Beaver Creek, there will be 60 trails open on 850 acres and five main chair lifts, plus four beginner surface lifts.
Vail will have more than 4,600 acres open, including Blue Sky Basin, China, Tea Cup, Sun Down, Sun Up and Game Creek bowls. Most of the frontside also remains open through Sunday.
"Vail's 50th anniversary season has been a truly memorable event for the resort and community," said Chris Jarnot, senior vice president and chief operating officer of Vail Mountain. "We hope that locals and guests alike enjoyed the season-long celebration and we invite everyone to join in the festivities both on and off the mountain on April 14 to close out this historic winter at Vail."

Since there's no place like home, "Wicked" is flying back in to the Bay Area next week, and following the yellow brick road to San Jose for the highly anticipated South Bay debut of this blockbuster.
The return of the "Wizard of Oz" stage prequel -- which has had audiences around the globe over the rainbow since its 2003 world premiere in San Francisco -- got me thinking about my love/hate relationship with the musical. Or perhaps that should be detest/grudgingly-respect relationship.
You see, I was a wicked witch of a theater critic when "Wicked" premiered. Even the radiant star power of Kristen Chenoweth as Glinda the good witch and of Idina Menzel as the infamous Elphaba couldn't distract me from what I still consider to be the play's flaws.
The sugary sameness of the score (by Stephen Schwartz of "Godspell" and "Pippin"), a candy coating on the dark political themes and the bouncy girl-power vibe are all turnoffs for me.
Indeed, as a fan of Gregory Maguire's original novel, with its pointed critique of the rise of a police state built around folksy aw-shucks politicians, evil wars waged over foreign natural resources and the death of civil rights, I felt the show blunted the bite of the tale to the point of inanity. And did I mention that I'm not a huge fan of generic power anthems? Sigh.
Let me assure you that I was not the only critic who was less than enchanted. New York reviews dubbed the show "overproduced" and "overblown." The New York Times was among the most vicious: "Wicked does not, alas, speak hopefully for the future of the Broadway musical."
Audiences, however, had a different response.
Eleven years later, "Wicked" remains the ne plus ultra of Broadway hits. It has been venerated at the box office, where it remains a top-grossing, unstoppable juggernaut (we're talking more than 38 million theatergoers!) and in pop culture, from "South Park" to "The Simpsons." Hollywood is gearing up for the movie version, with rumors flying fast and furious that Lea Michele of "Glee" will star. It seems "Wicked" will be popular in the American cultural lexicon for good. As it were.
As a result, this critic has had to slip on ruby slippers to review the show many, many times with many casts, including some true gems (Carole Kane as Madame Morrible? Divine!).
Along the way, I have softened my stance about feminism being reinvented for the tween generation. If legions of little girls and teens find "Defying Gravity" empowering, who am I to rain on their parade?
Certainly, the power of sisterhood is a magical thing to celebrate, particularly in a world that still favors the man behind the curtain. And there's no denying that Winnie Holzman ("My So-Called Life"), the writer of the book for the stage musical, does know a thing or two about strong female characters. Nor is there any doubt that the show has glittery eye candy, from Eugene Lee's spectacle of a set to Susan Hilferty's costumes.
Don't get me wrong: I am still not a huge fan of "Wicked," my pretties, though I have come to appreciate that the power it holds for others is legitimate. For the record, I have experienced realizations about "Mamma Mia!" which I loathed for many a year but had to experience repeatedly (both for professional reasons and because it is my mother's favorite show ever) until some of the edge wore off my disdain, and I came to enjoy the unmistakable glee of those around me. Theatrical pleasure can be infectious. Sort of like yawning,
So if you're planning to defy gravity with the national tour of "Wicked" that's flying into San Jose's Center for the Performing Arts, I wish you gentle winds. And your little dog, too.

Sunday, August 5, 2012
Louisville, GA -- The tradition at the Thomas Jefferson Academy doesn't have too many flaws the last few years. The Jaguars spent five straight years playing for state titles, bringing two of those back to Louisville.
Now, after a rare season without one of those appearances, the goal is singular.
The Jaguars lost most of their skill players from last year's state semi-final team, but they're ready to make a run back to the championship.
The lines will be strong and experienced, and lead back Michael Bridges returns, but when all is said and done, the desire to add their mark on such a storied program, is the driving factor this time around.
Senior lineman Seth Evans said, "The pressure's definitely there, but we've done our best to just forget about it and do what we do. As for excitement, there's definitely some excitement this year. We've got a great shot at playing in a state final and winning it."
Senior lineman Alex Haythorn added, "That's how we do it. That's how Chuck (Wimberly) does it. But I mean I honestly believe that we have a shot to do it, and if we were able to leave a mark on this school as state champions, I'd be happy with that."
The Jaguars have a little longer to prepare than most teams. They're off week one, then open August 31st against Briarwood.

Tuesday's letters: Robin Hood plan?
Published: Tuesday, June 4, 2013 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, June 10, 2013 at 9:20 a.m.
To the editor: According to the Times-News, the Republicans in the N.C. Legislature are proposing a major overhaul of state taxes.
While the numerous proposals are being studied, they might be summarized as robbing from the poor and middle class by taxing them more (sales taxes on just about everything, even on food and medicines, as one Senate version proposes) and giving the money to the wealthy in the form of lower income tax rates for individuals and corporations.
Will they call their final version the Republican Robin Hood plan?

Overlooked scam
To the editor: Your noteworthy Associated Press article on May 23 advised the public to be aware of scams related to the recent disasters in Oklahoma. While this is good advice, it has come to my attention that there is another scam underway in our country of which few fellow Americans are aware. It is called charities.
We all assume the money given to charities is doing a good of some sort. But in truth, anyone giving to charity should do a little work and investigate the finances of the selected charity.
To do this, go the website charitynavigator.com, and under the alphabet, look up the your charity. There you will find some interesting data. First, the amount of contribution received; then the expenses, which include the amount actually contributed to charity and the amounts paid to a fundraiser; then the income; and then the amount in assets.
Who is really benefiting from your contribution? Is it the fundraiser? Then look at how many millions it has in assets (property, stocks, other investment). One has to wonder if our donation of $100 is really making a difference to those in need.
Mark Clifton
This isnt pretty
To the editor: Because history repeats itself, everyone who saw the movie 2016 understood what fundamental change in administration and federal government would mean. It is playing out in current events, and it isnt pretty.
My brother was killed in World War II. It was personally insulting when the president referred to a legitimate search for the truth as a sideshow. Truth is veracity, reality, steadfastness, fact and fidelity. It is not a political issue.
God bless our military and their families. We thank them for their service.

Receiving care at a NAPBC-accredited center ensures that a patient will have access to:
For more information about the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers, visit their Web site
Mid-Columbia Medical Center has been accredited by the Joint Commission, a private, non-profit organization dedicated to promoting quality healthcare services. This voluntary accreditation signifies that the hospital's efforts to provide highest-quality healthcare have received professional and national recognition through stringent evaluation and consultation from the Joint Commission.
For nearly 15 years, Mid-Columbia Medical Center has been affiliated with the Planetree Alliance, a group of innovative hospitals and healthcare institutions who are dedicated to implementing innovative programs to personalize, humanize and demystify the healthcare experience for patients and their families. Mid-Columbia was the first Alliance affiliate to adopt and embrace, hospital-wide, Planetree's philosophy of patient-centered care. Considered an exemplary model of Planetree, Mid-Columbia is one of the few affiliates to have incorporated all nine components of the Planetree vision into its facility.
Mid-Columbia Medical Center has been recognized for its outstanding commitment to performance excellence and has received the Oregon Quality Award, which is based on the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award. The award is given to industry leaders who have achieved outstanding performance evaluations in leadership, strategic planning, customer and market focus, information and analysis, human resources, process management and organizational outcomes.
Celilo has received the highest-possible rating by the independent organization that surveys and evaluates cancer centers nationwide, The Commission on Cancer (CoC) of the American College of Surgeons. In 2013 Celilo received accreditation "with commendation."
Celilo's overall approval rating indicates that, after a thorough examination of 36 standards of care and reporting, a CoC surveyor found zero deficiencies. Approval with commendation is an even loftier citation that means Celilo staff also eclipsed CoC standards in each of nine additional measurements.
Mid-Columbia Medical Center was named as one of seven Oregon companies to demonstrate outstanding commitment to families and community. The Families in Good Company Award is a reflection of Mid-Columbia's dedication to helping employees manage work and family demands, with such benefits as flexible work schedules, job sharing, telecommuting and compressed work weeks, on-site child care and wellness programs.

At Celilo, we provide patient care in a manner that is unique among cancer centers. Certainly all cancer centers have the goal of healing their patients, but we take a different approach to healing itself. We focus not only on a disease and how it affects the body, but also on how it affects the whole person -- body, mind and soul -- and how it affects the person's loved ones.
The ancient Chinese believed that there is a universal life energy called Chi present in every living creature. This energy is said to circulate throughout the body along specific pathways that are called meridians. As long as this energy flows freely throughout the meridians, health is maintained, but once the flow of energy is blocked or 'out of balance', the system is disrupted and pain and illness can occur.
Acupuncture involves the usually painless insertion of very fine sterile needles at specific points in the body to 'free up' the Chi energy and restore normal function. Side effects are minimal, and patients often report feelings of deep relaxation during treatment.
Studies have shown that, in addition to providing an overall feeling of well being, acupuncture may help treat or prevent many of the side effects of radiation treatment and chemotherapy.
Acupuncture can be combined with Chinese herbal medicine, which has been used for centuries in the treatment of patients and also can be extremely effective in controlling the side effects of cancer therapy.
Jan Van Es is one of just a few practitioners of acupuncture in an Oregon hospital who is a fully accredited member of the medical staff and whose skills and services are completely integrated into the care of cancer patients at Celilo.
Acupuncture treatments are available Monday through Thursday, 9 am to 3:30 pm. To make an appointment call (541) 506-6998.
Massage therapy has been used to enhance healing and general well being since ancient times. This therapy manipulates the skin, muscles and joints for muscle relaxation, improved circulation and stress relief.
Massage is made available to all Celilo patients and their loved ones during visits. Our therapists offer a variety of massage techniques tailored to the individual's needs. Relaxation, deep body, warm stone and Thai massage are all specialty massages that can be requested.
While it is no cure, yoga can be an effective complementary therapy for a variety of conditions, including cancer, and it is an integral component of our Integrated Therapies program.
Yoga's most obvious benefits relate to stress reduction, flexibility and relaxation. But as more studies are conducted, there is evidence of other tangible health benefits.
Yoga is gentle enough to be practiced by almost anyone. Patients can work within their own limitations and tailor their practice to their specific needs. Yoga's gentle, mindful and controlled movements can provide a non- or low-impact workout for people in almost any physical condition.
Patients can wait for or recuperate from treatment in Celilo's therapeutic spa, which includes men's and women's Jacuzzis and saunas. Family members also are encouraged to use these facilities.
With views and access to a healing garden, our comfortably furnished meditation room is a peaceful place for people to contemplate, sit and breathe, meditate or pray. It includes both semi-private and open spaces.
As part of our Planetree philosophy, Celilo recognizes the unique needs of each individual and the vital role of spiritual care in providing healing potential for the whole person. Spiritual Care staff members and volunteers are available to offer a caring spiritual presence as they listen attentively our patients' and/or family members' concerns, fears or questions regarding treatment or another aspect of their life.
If you find you have a need for the services provided by Spiritual Care call (541) 506-6999.
Located outside Celilo, the labyrinth is a tool for walking reflection, relaxation and prayer. As walkers move quietly along the beautiful stone path, they can find strength, peace and awareness to cope with cancer and its effects.
More About the Labyrinth ›
Our care coordinator meets with each patient to introduce him or her (and family members) to these tools, which comprise the center's Integrative Therapy Program. The program augments Celilo's traditional clinical services with an array of complementary therapies, some of which include: meditation with harp, journal writing, guided imagery and journal writing and many more.

Northern California restaurant chain Fresh Choice, known for its salad buffets and farm-to-fork ideals, has shuttered the last of its stores after failing to appease creditors and overcome a mountain of debt.
But before faithful customers could properly mourn the end of a salad-bar era, Fresh Choice was rebranded and reborn at two Bay Area locations. A few rounds of bankruptcy weren't lethal enough to kill owner David Boyd's mission to prove he could serve up a farm-fresh lunch and turn a profit doing it.
Boyd opened California Fresh, a more a la carte sandwich and salad eatery, in the former Fresh Choice restaurants at Bayfair Center in San Leandro and Vallco Shopping Mall in Cupertino this week. Boyd hopes he can reopen many of the 30-plus Fresh Choice locations under the new name. His plan is to make California Fresh more sleek and customized than Fresh Choice -- he's talking about a menu with baked potatoes with all the toppings, cappuccinos and a wine list. And while customers can buy salads by the pound, forget about the all-you-can-eat buffet -- an outdated and costly menu offering that contributed to Fresh Choice's nose-dive over the past four years.
"It's a terrible thing that happened with Fresh Choice. It's the end of an era," Boyd said. But "I'm doing my best to see if we can resurrect some of the stores."
But bringing Fresh Choice back from the dead will be a messy and trying ordeal. The Emeryville-based company attempted to reorganize after filing for bankruptcy in July -- the second time in eight years it filed for Chapter 11. Boyd, who bought Fresh Choice in 2007, tried to salvage his most profitable stores, but the process dragged on and attorney fees piled up.
"Perhaps they waited too long to reorganize. It was too much to overcome," said Oakland attorney Basil Boutris, who represented Fresh Choice.
With debt mounting, Fresh Choice filed for Chapter 7 -- liquidation -- in November, when Boyd locked up the remaining 20 or so stores.
"I didn't know what I was getting into," Boyd admitted. "I couldn't pull it off at the end."
Boyd says he's working to pay back some of the rent he owes, the bulk of Fresh Choice's economic woes. The company also has tax debt to deal with -- bankruptcy documents show more than $1.7 million in unpaid taxes to the IRS.
Like so many restaurants, it was the recession that started Fresh Choice's downward spiral. And despite its name, Boyd said the restaurant grew stale, and in recent years its customer base became predominately older diners who tended to spend less.
"The 20- or 30-somethings who are working at Google (GOOG), they're not coming to eat at our place," he said.
But what customers Fresh Choice had were loyal -- and distraught to hear the company had folded. Readers responded to the news with more than 50 comments on this newspaper's Facebook page, many of them positive and ranging from nostalgic praise for the restaurant's Chinese chicken salad and organic selection, to exclamations of "We need it!" and "I am definitely bummed."
Outside the former Fresh Choice in Walnut Creek on Friday afternoon, a once-bustling spot on South Main Street where patio furniture now lay abandoned, a string of disappointed customers tugged on the locked door before turning around dejectedly and heading to find lunch elsewhere.
Elaine Shingleton and Veronica Gosling met outside Fresh Choice for their monthly lunch date, only to be greeted with a torn sign reading: "Fresh Choice is closed. There is no scheduled date to reopen."
"This is a surprise," Shingleton said. "It hurts."
The longtime friends liked Fresh Choice because they could linger over their salads and talk for hours, said Gosling, a retiree from Orinda. Now, she said, they'd have to find a new lunch spot.
Offered Shingleton, "There's always Panera."
