ISO 14001 is an international standard which specifies the requirements for an environmental management system (EMS). It is the most popular and recognisable EMS in the world.
An EMS provides a structured way for an organisation to manage its environmental impacts. It is typically used to manage consumption of resources such as energy, raw materials and water, reduce / prevent pollution, ensure legal compliance and drive continual improvement.
There are different methodologies that you can employ to implement Environmental Management Systems. However, there are a number of published Environmental Management System standards that have been widely adopted by the vast majority of organisations.
The three main Environmental Management System standards are ISO 14001, the Eco Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS), and BS 8555. Workplace Law's ISO 14001 consultants can help you implement these standards in your organisation.
Rather than stating specific environmental performance criteria itself, ISO 14001 provides a framework for an organisation to control the environmental impacts of its activities, products and services, and to continually improve its environmental performance.
Implementation of ISO 14001 will help an organisation implement, maintain and improve an environmental management system and external certification to the Standard will demonstrate conformance to customers and other stakeholders.
ISO 14001 can be implemented by a wide variety of organisations. However, a commitment to compliance with applicable environmental legislation and regulations is required, along with a commitment to continual improvement – for which the EMS provides the framework.
The ISO 14001 Standard has a number of clauses, with each one specifying the key requirements which, when fully implemented in a systematic way, will produce a management system that will effectively manage an organisation's environmental issues.
The way in which the ISO 14001 Standard can be adopted is flexible – it does not set absolute requirements for how you or your organisation should interact with the environment – the boundaries of the system are set by you. However, it does include a commitment to legal compliance, pollution prevention and continual improvement.
Workplace Law's ISO 14001 consultants have extensive experience in advising clients in all aspects of Environmental Management Systems. We can help you identify the most appropriate system for your organisation, and work with you to implement the various stages of the system to prepare you for verification by an independent auditor (if desired).
Personal relationships are important to us: we never forget that every client, every sector, and every solution is different.
In addition, the multi-disciplinary nature of our practice – encompassing HRM and health and safety management systems – means we can advise you seamlessly on related standards such as ISO 9001 and OHSAS 18001 and integrated management systems.

"I spend more time/$$$ shopping for my dogs than myself," Cyrus confessed on Twitter.
The objects of her affection are Lila, Floyd and Ziggy, and lately, it's Lila who's been showered with a whole new wardrobe. Cyrus posted photos of the latest haul, including a casual-cute green hoodie covered in peace signs, and an "adorbbssss" blue nautical dress.
Love Lila's looks? It's your lucky day – both are available (on sale!) at PETCO.
Wag-a-tude Green Fleece Dog Hoodie with Peace Signs ($10.49), made with a soft fleece, comes with an opening for easy collar-leash access, and has a kangaroo pocket on the back for storage.
Pup Crew Blue Anchor Print Seersucker Dog Dress ($11.99), works for a day on the water or for a picnic at the park. Its cotton fabric gives it breathability and the embroidered anchor details are a sweet, eye-catching embellishment.

Featured Golf News
Pettersen Inches toward No. 1
Suzann Pettersen got off to a good start in her pursuit to overtake Inbee Park as the top-ranked player in women's golf.
The 32-year-old Norwegian carded nine birdies and three bogeys for a 6-under 66 and the opening-round lead in the ISPS Handa Women's Open. The tournament - also called the Women's Australian Open - started Thursday at Victoria Golf Club in Australia.
Pettersen won twice last year and is now ranked second behind Park in the world standings. With a victory or a runner-up finish this week, she will overtake Park, who's not entered this week.
Pettersen like how she started out in her first tournament of the year. "In the first round of the year you're always anxious to get started," she said. "It took me a while to get really comfortable, to trust what I've been working on.
"In the end the trust was stronger than the rest. I hit a lot of great shots but I also have to say I left a lot of shots out there. I three-putted a lot of greens, stupid three-putts really, but I also felt like I played good and gave myself a lot of birdie chances."
Tied for second after 67s are Americans Jessica Korda - the tournament winner in 2012 at Royal Melbourne- and Jaclyn Sweeney, South Korean Hee Young Park and France's Marion Ricordeau.
Among the 10 players posting 68 are Americans Paula Creamer and Sydnee Michaels, and teenage phenom Lydia Ko of New Zealand.
Defending champion Jiyai Shin opened with a 74.

Browser Abuse Syndrome
is when a person or company abuses a Web browser by stretching it beyond its intended use. HTML, the language that browsers currently parse, is a scripting language for documents, not applications. People could be far better off using real applications, or a browser that is not so HTML-centric (
using a text field for writing a post (like this one) when you should be using a text editor or a browser with a text edit plug-in of your choice.
playing a video game online in a browser, using some java applet or flash, instead of getting a real program that runs on the computer
chatting in an online chat room instead of using a program like IRC, trillian, etc.
using webmail to check email instead of using an email client such as eudora, procmail, Sylpheed Claws, Outlook(sigh), Emacs, etc.
But useful if you use different machines at different places and have to switch clients, in which case your information is scattered on multiple machines under the fat-client approach. I just wish they made better web versions of email managers.
If you're using different machines there's no reason you couldn't use software on each system to check your email. Or if you want something generic, I think HTML is still the problem - so a
would be fit. I think the reason you "wish they made better web versions of email managers" is because they
can't make them
them. The richest HTML email managers I've seen out there are
slow even on a new processor.
That assumes you have authorization to install software on the machine you're using. Web browsers are now ubiquitous. You can use them on any random PC.
Yes those situations are a problem. That's why I say a component browser or a browser that is more complex for "applications" is needed. In otherwords, when you can't install a thin client on a machine, a generic browser not based on HTML is needed, that everyone has installed. Like someone else said, HTML is more like an e-brochure, but not fit for application.
That's why we have
Please, you aren't serious? Surley you are joking, shirley.
plays a part
Yes, I'm serious.
turned simple HTML browsers into this magical "component browser" you imagine. There's nothing "abusive" about using
to add new features to the browser.
managing files on your hard drive inside a browser all the time instead of using a file manager program
This above problem is an issue with KDE. They set up Konquerer to manage your files. It's better than some web browser-based file managers, but it's still abuse. Why? Because other stuff gets in your way and it's still not a file manager. The menu systems are generally designed for browsing, and hacks have to be done to get the browser turned into a file manager. In addition, even the old unix philosophy doesn't advocate having one tool do three million different things. It's useful to the casual user who doesn't manage their files that often. But it isn't total Commander or Krusader or Seksi Commander. All the menus and keyboarding in the browser are geared toward the browser, not the file manager. Since file managers are partly keyboard driven (like Total Commander). A browser based file manager solution is just extra bloat in the linux distro, for some.
downloading files from an FTP server in a browser regularly (emergency is ok)
using PHPmyAdmin regularly (emergency is ok, see
Online RGB color pickers, online HTML to RGB converters (It would have been quicker to download the program that did this, the HTML just took so long to parse the silly color picker java craplet in the first place, sigh)
Online Hex to Dec converters.
Using Cpanel to control a linux web server. (Sadly, Cpanel has many features but is buggy. I wish I didn't have to. Anyone know of a replacement? Root access isn't the solution and neither is SSH, since some people don't have that on some hosts.)
Why are any of these uses considered "abuse"?
[duh] [It's abuse because Web browsers are neither general enough nor powerful enough. It's abuse because
; it's not a pure transport protocol as described in
, let alone a general or powerful protocol. It's abuse because Java craplets suck; distributed applications with no meaningful security whatsoever. And so on and so forth.
Having said that, applications suck. Not just the applications mentioned above, but all applications everywhere. See
. The default UI should be an
framework that calls specialized code for handling specific classes (eg, class movie, class musicFile)].
The Web has made it easy to share stuff. Unfortunately, there is not a decent real HTTP-friendly GUI standard yet, so people end up pushing HTML to its limits to achieve what the customer envisions. (
<rolleyes> There isn't a decent text standard yet!
HTML browsers should be kept for reading simple documents, similar to an RTF program.
Alternatives to HTML could also be developed for reading simple documents with hyperlinks, but not much more.. such as an RTF-like design where we always use a WYSIWYG design (no one ever hacks their RTF files in a text editor, do they? Even advanced programmers who use RTF never hack their RTF files in a text editor... so think about that hard now, why do we still use text editors to edit HTML? because HTML is slow to parse and no software is available, other than bloated applications like
Real world example section
please contribute your real world examples which (would) reduce Browser Abuse
Emule: Almost an example of what a web browser needs to be like. Emule connects to the internet but does not use HTML. It is a client with listboxes, menus, etc.
Client like "Emule" has basically NOTHING to do with HTML. HTML or a Web browser (topic at hand) does not need to be used in order to "use the Internet in a useful manner".
Emule is for file sharing, but my point is this could be a shopping cart application too.. NO HTML, NO BROWSER - still connected to the Web, but NO HTML, NO BROWSER. The reason I pick Emule is because it has so many intelligent features.. a shopping cart application that looked like Emule would make Web shoppers go crazy. People would never visit these obsolete 'HTML' Web sites again.
Even Google is an example of browser abuse. When I look up information for programming tips or source code I use Google. However I constantly find myself wishing to have a software application that connects me to only software servers developed for programming, like an Emule program (not the P2P part, just the design of the application and lack of browser/HTML). All the server load that Google takes in just for me to find information about some simple programming question is ridiculous, compared to say some software application designed like Emule that only connected to servers related to programming, and displayed the search results appropriately (in a proper ListView
or Grid, not HTML).
One problem with browsers is their heavy mouse reliance. In order to go to a homepage on a Web site I should be able to hit CTRL-H or META-H. With current browser-abuse-syndrome developers (asexually reproducing worldwide), we'll never end up seeing Web sites that can be controlled by the keyboard optionally. Come in here with a VBscript and I'll hurt you, think on a deeper level please.
It can be done, but the problem is having a site with enough content and regular visitors to justify doing that.
Ok, so an example: I've never seen this in practice at some of the most popular shopping cart sites in the world. There are a lot of Web sites out there with a lot of visitors. Yet, it really isn't that hard of a thing to implement in a software application, it's pretty much done for you in Win32.
Well, that's true, but as far as implementing this on the Web it isn't 'normal'. Most people aren't used to using the keyboard to navigate, so although the possibility of implementing keyboard navigation on the net is quite possible, it isn't just a case of not enough people and not enough content, but actually getting them to use it. Most wouldn't; instead, they'd rather point-and-click.
It isn't? What about E-mule? Sorry, it's the only application I can think of that is a Web App and not HTMl based. It's not just the 'keyboard', it's the design of how my keyboard responds to the GUI (i.e. instead of tables and linear selections, you have listviews, menus, pop-ups, etc.). The keyboard is just an example. We are not asking for someone to write up a script that will make a html website work with the keyboard, because it lacks the design to do that in the first place.
E-mule is not, by the normal usage of the term, a Web Application. E-mule is a traditional compiled application that uses traditional techniques to do P2P networking. Web Applications, as normally used, refers specifically to "applications" which are implemented on top of and accessed with HTTP and HTML, in a browser.
Just for the record, this post (and all navigation leading up to it) was made entirely from the keyboard. Mozilla is a wonderful thing.
On a more serious note, I find myself using the keyboard very frequently to navigate all sorts of Web sites. I usually only drop back to the mouse for text selection, and random access browsing from a long list (
, for instance). In the first case, pointing just seems to make more sense (a search and replace would involve typing in most of the text I wanted to avoid typing in the first place), although good cursor/arrow key support would be nice. In the second, again the 'random access' nature seems to be a better fit.
One gripe I do have about Mozilla's incremental find is that although it will find text in a text box, the only way to keep the cursor there is to click... escape loses the focus; tab, shift+tab sends you back to the previous cursor position.
But you can browse Google via the keyboard in the Opera browser too. And you can turn images off with the G key, etc. You can write a keyboard tool that hacks into the IE6 API that lets you navigate sites 'properly' according to how you want it done too if you
really put your mind to it
. But
really putting your mind to it
just to do something simple and tedious indicates lack of proper upfront design in the first place. We can all use RoboForm
to manage our passwords (sigh), but look at the bloat needed to hack into the document and IE6 API. Not proper upfront design.
Do you want to carry around a 100MB browser and a bunch of plug-ins that hack on to HTML just to do a few things on a web page, and write bloaty plug-ins for the browser that in the end just tap and hack onto HTML designed pages? Why not do it backwards and do all the hacking first, before using HTML. Everyone is hacking on top of HTML, rather than eliminating it.
Do you want to have a proper up-front design instead, where we don't use HTML as the main programming language that everything is trying to wrap to? All server languages in the end are just wrappers for HTML. What kind of a programming language is HTML? What kind of a programming language is RTF? Word?
Specify the
attribute for each important link when writing the HTML. The user can hit Alt-H, for example, to jump to the home page. See "Day 15" of
's "Dive into Accessibility" tutorial (
). The access key trick works in
but not
. As far as I'm concerned Safari sucks.
as well, but what suck more are the HTML-generating IDE's and libraries and inadequate education about HTML. Hence the importance of
if, for some reason, HTML is what you want or
to use. Some standardization of accesskey shortcuts would help as well.
There is some controversy, however, about the accesskey attribute. As of July 2004 the XHTML 2.0 Working Draft replaces the accesskey attribute with a new attribute called "access". The proposed new access attribute would allow the
to specify what keystrokes to assign to the access points, once browser makers get on the stick. Read more about this in "The Future of Accesskeys" article (
). --
I agree that an app designer should have this power and this is why web-based GUIs are insufficient. You cannot reasonably expect to have that level of control over a browser. This is why writing a custom thin client is often the best (and, sadly, usually overlooked) solution to most of these problems. Once you factor out all the cross-browser issues (.NETs postback handling is nice in theory but generates exceptionally messy code and is difficult to override. It also creates a tendency to much tighter lockin than even the old "Only use the IE DOM" way did). Disclaimer: I write web apps for a living. The need to provide rich client functionality in a fundamentally limited platform is one of the most annoying parts of my job, especially when the gains from browser based functionality are generally minimal.
[Web based GUI's are only inefficient because of what limits them, HTML. HTML is the main programming language that everything wraps. HTML needs to be ditched for real web apps. See also
Companies seem to like the easy deployment of web apps and appear willing to sacrifice better GUI techniques and frameworks to get it. I often don't agree with this, but if the customer wants it, what else can you do? Also, sometimes they don't seem to understand the extra effort and complexity that results from forcing web apps to act like real GUIs. On the one hand they may complain about being married to Microsoft if they use VB, but don't mind sticking to IE-specific standards to get more client features.
Following the move over to here
) I agree, as said above it's what I get paid for. They sell themselves on the idea because of the ease of deployment, and because it's in all the trade journals. I've suggested client side apps a number of times and always get shot down. It's especially frustrating when I'm busy turning down requests for extremely rich data entry support that I can't provide because a browser doesn't expose the events I need, like high tech masked entry boxes. [Ease of deployment can work both ways though:
HTML which is so easy to deploy: you are competing with guess who: people who can build web pages, tons of these people. Even kids can create web pages, so why would people hire you? Your customers want something better than what everyone else on 1st street is doing, but of course it isn't here yet, because people are still using HTML.
C++ is a complex language yet it is highly popular. It seems the human brain is quite capable, otherwise more people would be using VB (now they came out with Visual C#). So saying that the reason people use HTML is because it's easy to deploy is like saying the reason we all use VB is because it's easy to deploy. If you want real results, you don't use VB for several reasons.. It's just not a LONG TERM solution. HTML is not a long term web application solution, it is a 'document scripting' solution.
Maybe sneak it in using Flash Forms or something. (I don't know if Flash supports masks, but it is richer than most HTML.)
Re: "using a text field for writing a post (like this one) when you should be using a text editor"
It would be nice if browsers allowed one to plug in their favorite
to replace the default one.
[They would with a
allows this. :-) Launch Lynx, go to the Options page (o), and enter the path to your Editor in the General Preferences section.
Yes, some browsers are wonderful with features; however, these are all just hacks on top of HTML still. Why not design it better first, before tapping on to it and smack-hacking it? Not proper up front design and engineering. Even Emacs let's us do wild things like browse websites. These are all just hacks. You could ride your bicycle to Africa across the ocean if you lived in Florida, but isn't that just a hack? You need proper equipment that was designed right for the job.
If Emacs is the answer, I'm not sure I want to know the question!
Re: "People could be far better off using real applications that run on their computer, not inside their Web browser."
I don't think those are the only options. I believe in the idea of
such that we don't need fat clients, or at least app-specific clients. The problem with the current set of browsers is that they were fundamentally built for e-brochures, not business forms or highly interactive interfaces.
You're right. What I meant was either a different type of generic web browser which uses not html, but plug-ins and components. Or, a real application (thin client) for more customized work when you need more than just the browser, and you are allowed to install that client on the machine you are at. I've changed the paragraph at the top.
This page seems to come from folks with the assumption that the best technology will be the most successful technology. It's been obvious for a long time that HTML (plus
, Flash, plug-ins, etc.) was not the best technology for many of its current applications, but it's been equally obvious that it has been and will probably continue to be the most successful technology. Replacing HTML with a better remote GUI technology won't generate cash for anyone any time soon. HTML is good enough and popular enough that it has inertia on its side.
Note: Browser abuse typically occurs more when people design, or try to design
applications in browsers
. Since HTML is hypertext geared, applications have trouble existing as HTML alone. All server side languages still end up existing as HTML in the end, on the browser side. This is part of the problem. This page is not arguing that html browsers suck, but more about the abuse of html browsers when designing applications. Html browsers, I agree, are useful for reading HTML documents (help documents, instructions, things like that.). But for things like banks, software upgrades, service applications, shopping carts, video games, sending email,... browsers are lacking a basic engineering. That's why incomplete solutions like
and Robo Form, and non-standard
browser hacks exist(variations between mozilla, opera, IE, konqueror)
In what way is
an "incomplete solution"?
You'll have to use your imagination ;)
Also it appears
started a page himself, which may lead you in some direction.
You made the claim. Can you explain?
For the same reason that an Edit Box is not a complete solution, or for the same reason a wrench isn't as complete of a solution as a screw driver when you need it. Use your imagination.
No hope from 'RIAs' (
), Flex, Silverlight, etc.? How about Windows 8's Metro system? Is it true, now all of the worst limitations of HTML can be applied to desktop applications?
I'd say their success is roughly in this order: Flash/Flex, Java, Silverlight. However, the industry wants an open standard.

By Diane Rufino on August 27, 2013
Critics are quick to point out that the doctrine of nullification has never been legally upheld. In fact, the Supreme Court expressly rejected it – in Ableman v. Booth, 1959, and Cooper v. Aaron, 1958.
They say that the courts have spoken on the subject, and under the Supremacy Clause, federal law is superior to state law. Further, they argue that under Article III of the Constitution, the federal judiciary has the final power to interpret the Constitution. Therefore, the critics conclude, that the power to make final decisions about the constitutionality of federal laws lies with the federal courts, not the states, and the states do not have the power to nullify federal laws but rather, are duty-bound to obey them.
The fatal flaw in their arguments, however, is that they believe that the judiciary, a branch of the same federal government that tends to overstep their constitutional bounds, is somehow above the law and not subject to the remedy of nullification as the other branches are.
Another fatal flaw in their argument is that somehow, the Supremacy Clause is a rubber stamp that labels every federal law, every federal court decision, and every federal action "supreme." They, and especially the justices of the Supreme Court, refer to the Supremacy Clause as if it were the Midas Touch – a magical power that turns EVERYTHING the federal government does, including by all three branches, to gold. Nothing is farther than the truth. The Supremacy Clause states simply: "This Constitution, and the laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; …shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby…"
There is no debate that the Constitution, as originally drafted and defended, and as intended and ratified, designed a government of limited powers. Therefore it follows that only laws passed to legislate for the limited functions listed in the Constitution are supreme. Regarding objects and designs not expressly listed in the Constitution, the Ninth and Tenth Amendment remind us that they are reserved to the People or the States, respectively, and the federal government can claim no such supremacy. The Supremacy Clause states a preemptive doctrine that asserts sovereignty just as equally as the Ninth and Tenth Amendments assert sovereignty.
Hamilton explains federal supremacy in Federalist No. 33
It is said that the laws of the Union are to be the supreme law of the land. But what inference can be drawn from this, or what would they amount to, if they were not to be supreme? It is evident they would amount to nothing. A law, by the very meaning of the term, includes supremacy. It is a rule which those to whom it is prescribed are bound to observe. This results from every political association. If individuals enter into a state of society, the laws of that society must be the supreme regulator of their conduct. If a number of political societies enter into a larger political society, the laws which the latter may enact, pursuant to the powers entrusted to it by its constitution, must necessarily be supreme over those societies, and the individuals of whom they are composed. But it will not follow from this doctrine that acts of the large society which are not pursuant to its constitutional powers, but which are invasions of the residuary authorities of the smaller societies, will become the supreme law of the land. These will be merely acts of usurpation, and will deserve to be treated as such. Hence we perceive that the clause which declares the supremacy of the laws of the Union, like the one we have just before considered, only declares a truth, which flows immediately and necessarily from the institution of a federal government. It will not, I presume, have escaped observation, that it expressly confines this supremacy to laws made pursuant to the Constitution; which I mention merely as an instance of caution in the convention; since that limitation would have been to be understood, though it had not been expressed.
Critics also like to discredit nullification by associating it with the more controversial episodes in our history. A popular claim is that nullification was used to perpetuate slavery because it was embraced by Southern leaders who did not want blacks to take their place as free and equal men in their societies. They especially link nullification to South Carolina's colorful Senator John C. Calhoun, who was not only a vocal proponent of the doctrine and used it to justify his state's refusal to recognize the Tariff of Abominations in 1832, but also a strong supporter of slavery and a white supremacist. They like to say the so-called Nullification Crisis of 1832, pitting the South against the North, eventually precipitated the Civil War. They further allege that the Civil War settled the question of nullification.
There are so many flaws in these arguments.

Place a moratorium on high-stakes testing
As a former middle school principal, I did not receive the recent news that the state would look to eliminate the eighth-grade math test for accelerated students as a positive source of change. In fact, it may be harmful to the school and to the teachers if the results from those individuals who achieve at the highest level in mathematics are not included in the school's overall assessment reports.
If this plan moves forward, I wonder if there could be some negative consequences. Would educators decide to recommend fewer students for accelerated courses? Would some schools eliminate accelerated courses in order to keep the high-achieving students in the general mathematics course? Will educators continue to maintain the same number of students in accelerated courses but eventually be harmed as their overall effectiveness score would decrease without the benefit of those student results?
Donald Campbell is an American social scientist who devoted his professional life to studying the methodologies of social science research. He indicated that the more any quantitative social indicator is used for social decision-making, the more subject it will be to corruption pressures and the more apt it will be to distort and corrupt the social processes it is intended to monitor.
Campbell also stated that "achievement tests may well be valuable indicators of general school achievement, under conditions of normal teaching aimed at general competence." But when test scores become the goal of the teaching process, they lose their value as indicators of educational status and distort the educational process.
The state Education Department would be wise to place a moratorium on high-stakes testing as it relates to teacher and principal performance review and re-evaluate the goals of producing a high-quality education.

Loupe gets score he can savor at Pebble Beach
PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. -- Andrew Loupe knows how one week can change everything. He can only hope his 8-under 63 in the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am is the start of another one.
Loupe had to wait 3 hours to tee off because of rain Thursday, and then he played bogey-free on the Shore Course at Monterey Peninsula. That gave him the lowest score among those who finished their rounds.
Rain soaked the Monterey Peninsula in the morning, which was great news for an area desperate for rain, not so much for the tournament. Puddles quickly formed on the greens at Pebble Beach and Spyglass Hill, forcing play to be stopped on all three courses.
Monterey Peninsula played the easiest, and Loupe took advantage. He missed only one fairway and only two of his birdies were over 10 feet.
Stuart Appleby, Jim Renner, Richard Lee and Scott Gardiner had 65s at Monterey Peninsula. Phil Mickelson, a four-time champion, was at 5-under par through 15 holes when the round was stopped because of darkness.

Plastic and reconstructive surgeon Andrea Pusic talks to her patients about the many things to consider when choosing breast reconstruction, including timing, personal preferences, and surgical techniques.
At Memorial Sloan Kettering, you may choose to have immediate reconstruction, which means we'll start the process of rebuilding your breast during mastectomy (the surgery to remove it). Or you can start the procedure after your initial surgery and other treatments are complete. It's a personal choice. Some women say that starting reconstruction right away helps lessen the trauma of losing a breast, and you also don't have to be hospitalized and go under anesthesia a separate time. But either option may be right for you.
There are two methods of replacing the lost tissue during reconstruction: using an implant or using tissues from elsewhere in the body. The new breast will not function like a normal breast, and it won't have much sensation. But depending on the method of reconstruction, in clothes it can look almost exactly like the other breast.
To make your breasts symmetrical, we'll provide you options for an implant, a reduction or a lift of your breast, or other strategies so that your breasts look similar in size and shape. In the final step, we'll build a new nipple-areola that can be tattooed with a similar color.
The type of reconstruction that is best for you depends on several factors. These can include the amount of skin remaining on the chest wall, the size and shape of the other breast, the amount of body fat and tissue available elsewhere, and your general health, smoking history, and personal preferences.
If you know that you'll want reconstruction, you should talk to your doctor about it early in your treatment — even before you have a surgical biopsy, if possible. Your choice might influence where incisions are made.
Implant Surgery
Implants are best for women with small- to medium-size breasts and for those who have not had any radiation therapy to the breast area. In the first step, a pocket is formed from the pectoralis muscle in the chest and an expander is placed in that space.
Over the next several months, we inject saline (a solution of salt in water) through a valve into the expander sac to slowly stretch the skin and muscle in preparation for the permanent implant. During a second, shorter operation, we remove the expander and insert the implant in its place.
Implants come in different shapes and sizes and are made of saline or silicone (a type of gel). A plastic surgeon will help determine which type of implant is best for you.
Tissue Transfer
Another method for reconstructing the breast is to use tissue transferred from somewhere else in the body. The new breast is built using muscle from one of three locations:
- the TRAM (transverse rectus abdominus myocutaneous) flap, an oval-shaped section of fat and skin in the abdomen
- the gluteal free flap, from the upper or lower buttocks
- the latissimus dorsi flap, from the upper back to the chest
- the DIEP (deep inferior epigastric perforator) flap, which is similar to a TRAM flap, except that no muscle is used to form the breast mound
Once we finish creating the new breast, the other breast may be altered (with an implant, a reduction, or a lift) to achieve symmetry. In the final step, we'll build a new nipple-areola, which can then be tattooed with a color similar to the other nipple.
Radiation therapy can sometimes cause damage to the skin that makes breast reconstruction challenging. Our plastic surgeons have extensive experience with reconstruction for patients who have already had radiation therapy.

Iodoform Injections in Cystitis.
—Chandelux recommends an intra-vesical injection of an ethereal solution of iodoform in some rebellious cases of cystitis. He uses an almost saturated solution, or one containing 13 grams in each 100 grams of ether. He had obtained very favorable results in painful cystitis of tubercular origin, and in other cases of long standing, in which urination took place as often as ninety-six times in twenty-four hours. Chronic cystitis often causes a decided thickening of the bladder walls, and by their contraction the capacity diminishes greatly. If we attempt to distend the cavity by a tepid injection of boracic acid solution very severe pains are soon produced, the bladder rebels and the liquid is forced out between the sound and the walls of the canal. The bladder loses its power to bear a distension of its walls.In employing injections of iodoformed ether, the bladder having previously

Steve Nash Injures Leg?..Again
The Los Angeles Lakers 92-86 loss to the Chicago Bulls Sunday night wasn't the only bad news for the franchise.
Point guard Steve Nash re-injuried his left leg, this was only Nash's second game back from being sidelined with the same injury. Nash will be re-evaluated Monday and was held out of the final portion of the game "as a precaution," according to the team Nash received contact to his left leg from Chicago's Kirk Hinrich as he turned the ball over with 9:18 remaining in the third quarter.
The contact was near the same spot where he suffered a fracture in the leg last season. He stayed in the game until there was 5:00 remaining in the quarter and went straight to the locker room.
"I just took a knee to the spot where I broke my leg," Nash said. "Ever since I did that I've had a lot of nerve issues there and it just really flared up on me."
The Lakers are still without star Kobe Bryant due to a leg injury as well.

Redefining knowledge in an information world – a polemic
Dennison, Paul (2009) Redefining knowledge in an information world – a polemic. In: Society for Research into Higher Education : Annual Conference - Challenging Higher Education: knowledge, policy and practice, 8-10 December 2009, Newport, Wales.Full text not available from this repository.
This paper looks at knowledge and information as different forms of the same ideas or "memes". Very different, for knowledge is live, and information is dead. Knowledge is personal, difficult to acquire; information is plentiful, a commodity. Dawkins coined the term meme to refer to a "unit of cultural transmission". I distinguish between forms
of the meme that are live knowledge – the internal idea, or imago, and the external transient representation of it, the ephemeron – and those which are permanent information (artefact and permaphemeron). It is a mistake to talk of a "content-free" learning experience, as though content were "just information". Content is knowledge. The point of education is not just to regenerate live knowledge from one generation to the next, it is to extend and add to it through knowledge creation. And knowledge creativity does not operate in a knowledge vacuum. You need ideas to breed ideas.

Is it Sly Cooper movie time? Apparently, it is so. An official website and Facebook page have opened and the PlayStation Blog is hyping it up. Sly is getting his time in the spotlight and his chance to become a genre-crossing star.
Though, some people may not be totally happy with one major, Sly Cooper movie decision. As you can see from the first trailer, the cel-shaded look of the video games is absent. Instead, it looks like any old CG animated film.
Another potential blow could be lurking in the wings. No one has said if Kevin Miller, the voice of Sly, will return to voice him in the Sly Cooper movie. Knowing how the business works, there's a good chance a major Hollywood star could be brought in to lend star power.
At least the story sounds legit. The synopsis for Kevin Munroe's script has been released. Apparently, the Sly Cooper movie is an origin tale, following his beginnings as an orphan who grew up alongside his friends Bentley and Murray. He discovers he's from a line of legendary thieves just as Clockwerk the owl is chasing down The Thievius Raccoonus, a written record of every member of the Cooper clan's exploits and secrets. Naturally, Sly and his crew go to reclaim the lost pages.
We'll know for sure if Munroe, as well as Rainmaker and Blockade Entertainment, can make Sly Cooper's transition to the big screen work next year. Keep your fingers crossed, and maybe play Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time while you wait.
