An awkward thing happened to the Leonardo DiCaprio film The Revenant as it trekked into theaters last last year in hopes of picking up award show nominations: A rumor put the film in headlines but for reasons that none of its publicists were happy about. In early December, 20th Century Fox spokespeople were forced to clarify that no, the film does not feature a scene in which its star is raped by a bear.
Jamie Lee Curtis Recreates Mom Janet Leigh's Infamous Psycho Scene on Scream Queens

Like mother, like daughter.
Jamie Lee Curtis paid homage to original "scream queen" Janet Lee during Tuesday's episode of Ryan Murphy's slasher comedy.
As Wallace University's scheming Dean Cathy Munsch, Curtis recreated Psycho's iconic shower scene ... in a black-and-white, of course.
But instead of (SPOILER ALERT if you someone still haven't watched Alfred Hitchcock's scary 1960 classic) being stabbed by Norman Bates masquerading as his dead mom, it's the Red Devil lurking behind the dean's curtain on Scream Queens.

Scarlett Johansson Unafraid to Film Psycho's Iconic Shower Scene for Hitchcock
Originally posted 11/06/2012 12:50PM
Say, "Ahhhhhh!"
Scarlett Johansson is a scream as Psycho star Janet Leigh in her new film, Hitchcock, which tells the story of the making of the classic horror movie in 1959.
Filming Pyscho's iconic shower scene had its challenges, Johansson 27, tells V magazine in a new interview.
"We only had the luxury to shoot the scene for a day, and everybody was feeling very nervous because it involved water and nobody wants the actor to get wet," she says. "They were concerned with modesty and all these things – but I don't care about any of that stuff and Janet Leigh never did either.
Jessica Biel and Scarlett Johansson Star in Hitchcock
Originally posted 10/07/2012 10:35AM
To star in the upcoming Hitchcock, Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Biel had to channel classic Hollywood glam – well, at least one of them.
In the film, which tells the story of legendary director Alfred Hitchcock's life and marriage at the time he was making his 1960 horror classic Psycho, Johansson, 27, and Biel, 30, play the parts of that film's leading ladies, Janet Leigh and Vera Miles, respectively.
"When we took that still of Scarlett behind the wheel and put it up against the still of Janet behind the wheel in Psycho, it was eerie," says Hitchcock director Sacha Gervasi. "The extent to which Scarlett was able to channel Janet [was] a real surprise. She brought it in such a way that no one really anticipated."
As for Biel, embodying Miles – a longtime Hitchcock collaborator who had infuriated the mercurial auteur when she dropped out of his Vertigo to have a baby – proved more of a stretch.
Do You Recognize Anthony Hopkins as Alfred Hitchcock?

Sir Anthony Hopkins won an Oscar for playing one of the biggest psychos of all time, Hannibal Lecter, in 1991's The Silence of the Lambs.
Now he's playing the man who directed the movie that had all of America screaming, Alfred Hitchcock, at the time the Hollywood legend was making his classic 1960 film Psycho.
Here, in this first look from the movie Hitchcock, which began shooting last Friday (Hitch would have loved the date, Friday the 13th), Hopkins, 74, is seen as the bald, portly and droll 60-year-old.
Scarlett Johansson Is Stepping into the Psycho Shower

How about a look-back to Tinseltown's glorious and goriest past with Scarlett Johansson and Anthony Hopkins, who are set to costar in the upcoming Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of Psycho, reports Variety.
Johansson will play leading lady Janet Leigh, who took the screen's most famous shower in the 1960 classic of its genre. James D'Arcy (Madonna's W.E.) will play Anthony Perkins, whose acting career never quite recovered after he was typecast as Norman Bates, a motel owner with something of a mother complex.

Ceja Petitions IBF For Neutral Referee Versus McDonnell
By Jake Donovan
Handlers for bantamweight contender Julio Ceja followed through on their mid-week promise to protest the IBF-appointed officials selection for this weekend's vacant title fight with Jamie McDonnell.
The bout takes place in McDonnell's hometown of Doncaster, England, and comes with two of the four appointed officials hailing from the UK. One of the two is referee Howard Foster, who has officiated two of McDonnell's recent bouts and also hails from the fighter's hometown.
Ceja (24-0, 22KO) was already conceding hometown advantage to McDonnell, but his handlers are demanding a more level playing field in order for the fight to proceed as planned on Saturday.
"The British Boxing Board of Control Ltd ("BBB"), has appointed Mr. Howard Foster to officiate the contest to be staged in the United Kingdom, and who is origin also from Doncaster, England," promoter Reginald Kuchle points out to the sanctioning body, according to a letter obtained by
Boxingscene.com. "As you may know, Mr. Julio Ceja is an overseas Boxer that is in total disadvantage by having a referee with the same nationality of his opponent, fighting in their own territory.
"We truly believe that, in order to avoid any doubt, we kindly request your support by informing the BBB to appoint a new referee that could assure a neutral, clean and fair fight to Mr. Julio Ceja. This unfortunate situation was never explained to us before entering into this uncomfortable situation, neither the selection process nor the rules of boxing applicable to the United Kingdom."
One of the four officials hails from Mexico – ringside judge Alfredo Polanco. The other two judges are Holger Weimann of Germany, and England's own Dave Parris.
The general belief regarding this weekend's vacant title fight is either for Ceja to win by knockout or McDonnell (20-2, 9KO) to win a decision should he last all 12 rounds. Ceja is confident in his ability to box if it comes to that. What his team seeks at this point, is greater assurance of a fight that remains one-on-one and free of any bias from officials, perception or otherwise.
"We desperate ask for your kind support by appointing a new referee totally neutral to the participants of the bout, with different nationality of any of them," Kuchle pleads to the IBF. "We appreciate your help in advance."
A response has not yet been offered by the IBF.

Survey: How useful could Reddit be as an online information retrieval system? (self.Libraries)
submitted 3 years ago by Rusty_Robot
Here is a link to the survey for my Masters dissertation. It's very short and anyone who has the time to fill it in will have my eternal gratitude.
Many Thanks
[–]jslib 8 points9 points10 points 3 years ago (1 child)
I think it would make a rubbish info retrieval system! It's community is good (some subreddits are really good!), and you can often get good answers to your questions if you know where to look and either ask the question well or are willing to wade through loads of old posts to find something relevant. But you can't exactly just do a quick search and get your answer most of the time.
[–]Rusty_Robot[S] 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children)
that seems to be what I have found so far. However it seems that it wouldn't take much (especially with the communities help) to make it more viable. Not to the same scale or scope of Dialog or Google but a useful resource never the less.
[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 3 years ago (1 child)
It'd be great as long as the query includes cat-related content...:p
[–]Rusty_Robot[S] 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (0 children)
that's secretly what my dissertation is about. how can one make it even easier to find cat pics online?
[–]BookBeard 3 points4 points5 points 3 years ago (1 child)
It's an interesting question, but I really feel that the strengths of this site require a very, very different expectation of how to retrieve information. We'll give a physical book example. Sometimes you'll have a patron who finds a good book just by walking through the shelves. They don't search, they're the ones that say "that looks good," read it, like it, and just go back to that same shelf location to find more. It isn't a terribly efficient way of finding information, but it does put some value on serendipity in a way that a search-oriented experience doesn't.
Reddit is horrible, absolutely rubbish for searching, but it is a wonderful browsing collection, with the ability to expand and limit the scope of your browsing by subscribing/unsubscribing to subreddits. In short, expecting it to perform like a search engine is contrary to the style of the site, reddit is a browse engine.

I'm assuming you're aware of /r/scholar?
Yes, it is being included as one of the ways users have used Reddit for info ret purposes because of the community.
[–]New2LIS 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children)
If I were on the hunt for information, be it for a quick look-up or for something more in-depth, Reddit would be the last place I would go to find it (at least in its present state.) Right now, it has a bit too much of a "message board" feel to make it a viable option for serious searching. You have to cut through so much garbage to get to anything of merit. Using it for information retrieval would be a nightmare.

Only four games into his professional career, Cavaliers rookie Kyrie Irving has already experienced his share of highs and lows.
Coming out flat in a loss to the Toronto Raptors on opening night in which Irving scored just six points, many were quick to doubt if the Cavaliers had taken the right player first overall in June's draft.
Now with a few more games under his belt and a couple early season wins, a more accurate picture can be taken of Irving's future career, one that would seem to be impeccably bright.
It's still early, but here are seven reasons I believe Kyrie Irving is destined to be a star in the NBA for years to come.

Barre man is shot before gunman fleesMark Collier / Staff Photo
Mark Collier / Staff Photo An unidentified male speaks with Barre City Police at the scene of a shooting Thursday evening on Brooklyn Street in Barre. One person was taken to Central Vermont Medical Center with unknown injuries.
BARRE – Police are searching for a man who shot another man in the shoulder on Brooklyn Street Thursday evening.
The injury to Seth Parry, 20, is not said to be life-threatening. An eyewitness told police that as he and Parry were walking by an apartment building at 59 Brooklyn Street, a man dressed all in black and wearing a mask yelled to Parry saying, "Hey, woman beater."
The two men then started grappling with each other, according to the witness, who said the gun then went off and the masked man fled on foot.
The shooting happened around 5:30 p.m. and police were questioning five people outside the residence shortly after the incident.

©2006 Marion Chesney; (P)2008 BBC Audiobooks America
Narrative makes the world go round.
"4 stars if you're a fan of the series"
This is another tongue-in-cheek, campy Edwardian-set cozy like the four previous in the series-- but near the end, I wondered if author Chesney/Beaton got tired of her characters and whipped up a quick ending for the novel and maybe the series. That made the read less enjoyable. I suspect there will be no more adventures for Daisy, Beckett, Lady Rose, and the Captain - and I think they could have lived on in more situations, given the cleverness of Chesney/Beaton for creating other longer series for her protagonists.
So - another light read, but with good natured, PG 13 humour and some good social history thrown in. That makes it worth 4 stars for me.
Amazon Fan
"Love the Detective..."
It is in the middle just because it is short and sort of a sappy theme. Davina Porter makes it one of my top listens. I love Davina Porter narrations.
I compare them to the Midsomer Mysteries. Also the 'Poor Relations' stories. They take place in old England and just seem to go together to me.
Davina Porter is just simply the best narrator. Her voice and accent make the characters breathe in a way reading a print version just can't match. I would buy a book just to hear Ms. Porter narrate it.
Good entertainment. I would buy another book in this series.
"Wonderful audio!"
Davina Porter is one of the best audio readers I've heard so far. She sounds perfectly natural in whatever voice she does. And of course, Marion Chesney writed lovely mysteries!
The first 3 books in the series: Snobbery with Violence, Hasty Death, Sick of Shadows.
Yes, and this one is as good as her first three of the Marion Chesney mystery books.
These Marion Chesney books are all well worth a listen. The plots meander the slightest bit, but always in an interesting, and sometimes fascinating, way. The heroine Rose is a great girl, as is her side kick, Daisy. Along the way are some good quotations and some interesting snippets of Victoriana, like who started Fortum and Masons.
Good stuff for the Anglophile and period mystery lover!

School board approves budget revision
By Howell Dennnis
CROWLEY - During the Acadia Parish School Board meeting several motions were passed including the finalization of a resolution for fund approval of Qualified School Construction Bonds and a pay supplement for parish school support and professional personnel.
The bonds will allot $3 million dollars for Acadia Parish schools to use for
maintenance repairs and other improvements. The bond approval was announced last month and Monday's decision seemed to be a mere formality after having the issue discussed over the past four months. It is a low interest bond that the parish may pay back over a 15-year period.
"The nice thing about this is that it doesn't cost the taxpayers anything," said Acadia School Superintendent John E. Bourque, who was presented a plaque during the meeting to honor his selection as the Louisiana School Superintendent of the Year.
Another motion was passed to allow the budget to be revised to allow for pay supplements for parish school employees. The supplements will be for both professional (teachers and principals) and support (custodial, bus drivers) personnel and will be derived from the Board's general fund. The supplements for the 624 support employees will be for $500. For professional employees it will be $700.
The board also passed a motion for Iota High's Melanie Thompson to take an out-of-state trip to Olando, Florida for a dance performance by the school's Golden Girls at Walt Disney World in March of 2010, as well as a motion to request the exemption of a local sales tax on crawfish bait for area farmers.
The next school board meeting is scheduled for December 7, 2009.

Trailside Enterprises - Groton, VT - Phone: (802) 584-4500
A Snowmobile, in Groton, is a vehicle used for travelling on snow and is also known as a snow-machine. As they are specifically designed to be operated on snow, they do not require any road. The snow mobile can, at best, accommodate one person who rides it and one adult passenger, and is more like a motor-cycle. A snowmobile was created with the intention of it being a winter utility vehicle only; however, lately they have been used for recreational purposes as well.
Snowmobiles mostly find takers in the arctic territories and are also sold for recreational purposes in some parts of North America. Relatively low number of snowmobiles is found in Europe and other parts of the world, though they are growing rapidly in popularity. Due to the high speed and acceleration involved, it requires a skilled and physically strong individual to operate a snowmobile. The rate of injuries and fatalities caused by snowmobiles are much higher than those of normal road vehicles. Losing control of a snowmobile can easily cause extensive damage, injury, and even death. Each year many riders are also killed as they collide with other snowmobilers, trees or by falling on ice. However, the risks can be reduced through education, proper training, and usage of appropriate gear while riding a snowmobile.

- Maryland 75, No. 5 Virginia 69: At College Park, Md., Seth Allen scored five of his 20 points in overtime and Dez Wells finished with 18 for Maryland (17-14, 9-9 ACC), which closed out its 61st and final Atlantic Coast Conference regular season in stunning fashion by ending Virginia's (25-6, 16-2) 13-game winning streak.

Judge David Gamble, 51, is home recovering today after physicians found heart blockages and performed surgery Thursday.
Gamble, of the 9th Judicial District Court of Douglas County, had angioplasty surgery after being admitted to Carson Tahoe Medical Center Tuesday. His wife, Diane, said Gamble was feeling chest pains and thought he was having a heart attack while watching the World Series with a neighbor.
She said Gamble received four stints to improve blood flow to his heart. She said surgeons found blocked arteries in the right and left sections of his heart. The surgeons went in through his arm and put two stints on each side to improve blood flow.
"It is miraculous the way things went," she said. "Seeing how much blockage there was, I don't know what would have happened.
"Now, there is a river of blood flowing and I think he will be 10 times smarter."
Gamble's law and motion court calendar was rescheduled last week, according to a bailiff. Gamble said Friday he expects to be back "full steam" next week, so there shouldn't be a delay in the caseload.
"I am real fortunate," he said.
Mrs. Gamble said she was scheduled to attend a concert Tuesday evening, but decided not to, which was advantageous because she said her husband would not have gone to the hospital without her insistence.
"I was scared to death," she said.
She said Gamble will be changing his diet and exercise regimen, but otherwise he is in good spirits and had been joking around with hospital staff.
Gamble has been a judge in Douglas County for 16 years.

Today I am here to argue the case for media relations.
Amid the ever-present search for better measurement tools, and recent emphasis on the importance of content marketing in PR, I feel this old friend has started to get a bum rap.
While it's true traditional media can be an excellent tool for increasing awareness, my stance is it can also be a valuable, measurable way to increase leads and sales.
So, I ask you:
- Is media relations a good investment for your brand?
- Should media relations be a part of your marketing strategy?
- Should proven media relations expertise be a requirement as you choose a PR firm?
Don't worry, you don't have to answer those questions right now.
First, let's look at evidence supporting my case, in the form of two mini case studies. I'm using two recent media relations examples – one from a client, and one that I experienced personally – to fuel the fire of debate.
Let's explore …
Mini Case Study #1: Pure Sweets – Local Media Relations
Pure Sweets is a boutique vegan, organic, kosher, and gluten-free bakery based in Philly (and, full disclosure, as I mentioned above they're a client of mine – but it's a fab case study!). Since opening it's doors in 2009, they worked with a large PR firm, paying beaucoup bucks with no media coverage to speak of from month-to-month. Disillusioned, they ended their contract with the PR firm, and decided media outreach might not be a good fit for their brand.
Eventually, they decided to work with a startup communications agency that approached them. The agency promised strategic media outreach, consistent placements each month, and had experience in their industry. They also brought fresh ideas to the table. So, Pure Sweets decided to give media relations another try.
Within the first month of engaging with the smaller firm, a hyper-targeted media placement for Passover was secured in the Philadelphia Inquirer in print and online. Sales spiked within a day of the placement, and continued to soar for two weeks after. New customer relationships were established, and the brand now has long-term sales growth and repeat customers.
All from one story.
Mini Case Study #2: Belle Communications Launch – National Media Relations
As a part of the marketing strategy for launching my new business, Belle Communications, I made media relations a priority within my marketing plan. To help announce the launch, a placement was secured in the CNNMoney.com small business section.
The feature was displayed on the site's front page, and is still housed on the main page of the small business section to date. This opportunity generated a 700 percent increase in site traffic the week the story went live. It continued to bring considerable traffic to my site weeks after it was shared online, and increased my e-newsletter opt-ins by 110 percent.
More than that, it generated fifteen RFPs, nine ongoing new business relationships, a brimming pipeline, and two new clients all within a month of the coverage.
Not to mention it also increased Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin followings, and produced a number of networking opportunities.
The Verdict: Media Relations CAN Move Beyond Impressions into Measurement
Look at those measurable outcomes! Not too shabby for media relations, eh?
Media relations can produce tangible, measurable results if strategic, targeted, and executed well. But the question remains, is traditional media relations a good fit for your brand?
Questions to Consider Before Launching a Media Relations Campaign
How will you measure results?
I gave some real world examples within the two case studies. Think: Sales, traffic, new leads, e-newsletter opt-ins, RFPs, etc.
Do you have the proper tools and channels in place for measuring those results?
This is super important and often overlooked! Do you have a clear call-to-action on your website? Do you have a way to capture new leads like an email opt-in or other incentive?
Where is your target audience?
You can secure an 'amazing' story, but if it's not where your customers will see it, it's of little to no value. What is your target audience reading, listening to, and watching? Where are they spending their time and what are their habits?
What are your SMARTER goals within media outreach?
Think: Specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, time-bound, and don't forget to consider how you will evaluate and reevaluate your goals.
How is media relations part of your overall marketing strategy and not a silo.
Just like the other members of the marketing mix, media relations is not a stand alone tool. It should be thoughtfully integrated into your overall marketing plan.
Has media relations generated tangible results for you or someone you know? Do you think media relations is 'yesterday's news'? Leave a comment and let's hash it out!

I wish I could say that the experience you had with your younger colleague was isolated but we know that is unfortunately not the case. It is reassuring to know that we can make a different by demonstrating that in media relations, like any speciality, you get what you put into it. Stay the course!! 🙂
Great post Kate! I agree with what you and susancellura said – it's a piece of the marketing plan. I think people struggle with how or what to measure. It's something I'm weak in and am learning more and more about so love love love that you included that in this post.
Susan, I cringed when I read that your colleague said she just had to send it out to a list too! Luckily she has you to show her how it's done 🙂
I think we get too close to things and too used to doing the same old thing because it's been "working" when really we're just comfortable. I bet you know much more about measurement than you give yourself credit 😉
Great post, Kate! I'd like to call attention to your advice of deciding how you are going to measure your results, and underscore that this must be done BEFORE you begin pitching. You say this, I just think it deserves to be emphasized! Again, great post. 🙂
Thank you! Yes, before, before, BEFORE. The old adage of 'pitch first ask questions later' is absolutely not accurate.
I agree with you Kate. I have done some of this even though my focus is sales/marketing. Brands need to know that the media needs content to fill pages or video time. So why not make it be your Brand?
Great case studies. Wish more people would show proof of concept.
Thanks, Howie! It's true. As PR professionals, we literally have a hand in helping to curate news. It's a exciting but it is a responsibility. We have to make sure that we're actually pitching news. When you do your research, have actual news to pitch and target the right outlet, that's when the magic happens.
I don't think it's "yesterday's news." It's (media relations) going to happen whether you direct it or not (in my opinion, in the current environment). It makes sense to get ahead of it and think through what you want your message to be and what your end goal is. Thanks for an informative piece.
I didn't know that anyone thought that mainstream media coverage can't drive sales. Anyone who says that is wrong.

Gen. David Petreaus lost his sterling reputation and his job last week. The blockbuster news of the CIA directors resignation over an extramarital affair wasnt just stunning. It was depressing.
Gen. Petraeus is the widely admired architect of the bold 2007 U.S. surge against opposition forces in Iraq. That hastened the end of Americas military involvement in Iraq, gave that nations long-suffering people a fair chance to govern themselves and rightly re-confirmed the general as a renowned expert in counterinsurgency warfare.
Back when he was a senator, Barack Obama criticized the surge plan crafted by Gen. Petraeus and approved by President George W. Bush. But as president, Mr. Obama picked the general to lead our mission in Afghanistan. And at President Obamas request, Gen. Petraeus retired from the Army 14 months ago to become CIA director.
How could such a distinguished American, serving in an office where security is such a prime priority, be so reckless?
Thats just one of the troubling questions raised by Gen. Petraeus disgrace. Numerous federal lawmakers are fairly asking why the FBI waited months to inform the heads of congressional intelligence committee about the investigation that uncovered the affair. As one of them put it on Fox News Sunday:
We received no advance notice. It was like a lightning bolt.
That wasnt a Republican senator still serving post-election sour grapes. That was freshly re-elected Democrat Dianne Feinstein, chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
She also said Sunday of the scandal: That could have had an effect on national security. I think we should have been told.
The alleged behavior of Gen. Petraeus mistress, Paula Broadwell, intensifies security concerns. She wrote a glowing biography of Gen. Petraeus and had classified information in her computer though she contends she didnt get it from him. The FBI discovered the affair only after Mrs. Broadwell sent threatening emails to another woman she suspected of having romantic designs on the general though he and that woman insist that they were and are merely friends.
Other unanswered questions: Why were repeated signs of danger so tragically ignored before the Sept. 11 terror attack that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans in Benghazi, Libya?
Why did the president, Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice and other Obama administration officials stick for so long to the absurd premise that the murderous Benghazi assault was not a planned terror attack but the result of a spontaneous protest against a video ridiculing Mohammed?
Sen. Feinstein cited five prior incidents in Libya this year. She correctly stressed that they arent intelligence, they are not threats, they are actual attacks on the British ambassador, on our consulate once before, on a number of other things, on the United States missions.
The Benghazi outrage happened on Gen. Petraeus CIA watch. Yet while he was initially scheduled to testify Thursday before the Senate and House intelligence committees, now that he has resigned, the agency intends to send Acting Director Michael Morrell in his stead.
That wont suffice. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., put it well Sunday on CBS Face the Nation: I dont see how in the world you can find out what happened in Benghazi before, during, and after the attack if General Petraeus doesnt testify.
At least Gen. Petraeus downfall, while an awful end to an impressive career in public service, delivers this reassuring reminder: The quaint notion of individual responsibility isnt quite obsolete.
Lest you dismiss the generals affair as a purely personal matter, review the Code of Federal Regulations logical identification of sexual misconduct as a security concern. It removes security clearances for personal conduct or concealment of information that may increase an individuals vulnerability to coercion, exploitation, or duress, such as engaging in activities which, if known, may affect the persons personal, professional, or community standing or render the person susceptible to blackmail.
A relatively recent president even issued an order toughening that regulation, adding that access to classified material requires a record of strength of character, truthfulness, honesty, reliability, discretion and sound judgment, as well as freedom from conflicting allegiances and potential for coercion.
That directive was signed in 1995 by President Bill Clinton.
And regardless of the irony in that particular presidential edict, our nation deserves a fuller accounting of what happened to Gen. Petraeus and what happened in Benghazi.

About the Fibroid Care Center
Mount Sinai is one of the few hospitals nationwide with a dedicated Fibroid Care Center. Founded by Harold Mitty, MD, FSIR, emeritus Division Chief, the Division of Interventional Radiology at Mount Sinai was one of the first in the country to employ non-surgical treatment for uterine fibroids. Our goals are to provide women with the information they need to determine the optimal fibroid treatment and offer the safest and most effective therapies available. The Director of the Fibroid Care Center at Mount Sinai, Dr. Scott Nowakowski is a vascular and interventional radiologist who specializes in treating patients with uterine fibroids.
Uterine Fibroids
Uterine fibroids are benign tumors which can cause symptoms such as excessive bleeding, pain, and disfigurement. If left untreated, the symptoms can persist until menopause, severely impacting a woman's quality of life. Uterine Fibroids affect approximately 25 million women in the U.S. annually, with approximately six million women seeking medical treatment for severe symptoms each year. It is estimated that of the 600,000 hysterectomies performed in the U.S. each year, almost half are performed to treat symptomatic uterine fibroids.
Treatment Options
Approximately 80 percent of women with uterine fibroids do not require treatment. Often monitoring and medications that alleviate symptoms or inhibit growth are sufficient. However, uterine fibroids should be treated if they are cause abnormal heavy bleeding or present other complications due to their size. At the Fibroid Care Center, our highly skilled team of dedicated interventional radiologists (board-certified physicians who specialize in minimally invasive, targeted therapies) offer a minimally invasive procedure called Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) to treat symptomatic uterine fibroids. We work closely with gynecologists throughout the Mount Sinai Health System who offer alternative treatments such as oral contraceptives and/or hormonal therapy, endometrial ablation, myomectomy, and hysterectomy. Our physicians place great emphasis on educating patients and will answer all of your questions about treatment alternatives.
Recent Advances
The Mount Sinai Medical Center is the world's leader in radial artery access for uterine fibroid embolization with over 150 cases performed over the past 3 years. Radial access allows for early ambulation and decreased complications compared to the traditional femoral artery approach. This novel technique has been published and highlighted as a true innovation in the treatment of symptomatic uterine fibroids to minimize the risks of treatment and improve patient satisfaction. Mount Sinai Interventional Radiology has also pioneered the use of "ultra low dose" radiation exposure during uterine fibroid embolization to improve the safety of the procedure for symptomatic women. Our procedures can now be performed with a 65 percent reduction in the x-ray exposure to the patient as compared to procedures performed in 2013.

Ralegh's greatest literary achievement, The History of the World, was composed between 1607 and 1614 while he was imprisoned in the Tower of London on trumped-up charges of plotting against the life of James I. Ralegh had intended to compose a three-volume encyclopaedia of universal existence from the Creation to the present day, but completed only "the first part" which itself comprised five books and 776 folio pages. Tracing the rise and fall of the empires of Babylon, Persia and Greece, Ralegh anchors his narrative firmly in the Old Testament, but traverses widely across Greek and Roman philosophy and poetry, rabbinical exegesis, Christian writings in Latin and Greek, and medieval and Renaissance theology.

I am someone who has been an athlete all my life. I have had 9 surgeries done by Dr. Uribe. I would trust him completely and would recommend him to anyone that wants the best! He is honest, caring and explains anything you want to know. The one thing I learned about him is that he is a perfectionist. He gives you his best work to get you back to normal or as close to normal as your condition will let him. His skills are amazing but I would warn anyone that doesn't want to do the rehab he prescribes not to waste his time and yours. Sometimes the rehab from a surgery is demanding. He gives you his best and expects you to do the same. If you want the best see Dr. Uribe! I thank God he has been my surgeon.
His professionalism, efficiency, and approach to health care should be a model for health care delivery.
could you tell me if you are treating my husband john hill for he was in a car crash he was either in asia or miami when he crashed
I had right knee surgery on my birthday.That was the best birthday gift given to me by anybody.Dr. Uribe is a wonderdul doctor. I make copies of his business card and I'm recommending him to anybody that ask me about my experience with this doctor.
My name is Francisco Caraballo and I had two surgeries on my left knee which i destroyed playing baseball. After visiting two other doctors in the months prior to my first appointment with Dr. Uribe, I wasn't even able to walk and after my first appointment I felt that I was going to be ok and today I m back playing baseball, basketball and all sports.
This is the best doctor to go to...................

Student, 20, named Mexico police chief
- From: AFP
- October 20, 2010
- Student, 20, chosen as police chief
- "The only person to accept the position"
- Mexico drug wars have killed 28,000 since 2006
A 20-YEAR-OLD female criminology student has been named police chief of a northern Mexican border town plagued by drug violence because no one else wanted the job.
Marisol Valles became director of municipal public security of Guadalupe "since she was the only person to accept the position", the mayor's office of the town of some 10,000 people near the US border told local media yesterday.
Ms Valles is studying criminology in Mexico's most violent city of Ciudad Juarez, some 60km west of Guadalupe.
Raging turf battles between rival drug gangs have left some 6500 people dead in Ciudad Juarez alone in the past three years.
Much of Chihuahua state has suffered from the spiral of drug violence, including in Guadalupe, where the mayor was murdered in June and police officers and security agents have been killed, some of them beheaded.
Last week alone there were at least eight murders in Guadalupe, in an area deemed a high-traffic transit point for illegal drugs across the border into the US state of Texas.
More than 28,000 people have died nationwide in suspected drug violence since December 2006, when the Mexican government launched an offensive against its criminal gangs with the deployment of some 50,000 troops.
The Guadalupe mayor's office has only one police patrol car and receives security assistance from the army.

Joel, from a Texan to another Texan, you are wrong. Guadalupe is indeed a border town. It is southeast of Juarez (about 60km). Check google maps for "Guadalupe, Chihuahua, Mexico".
Mr.T of A-Town Posted at 1:43 PM October 21, 2010
This is hardcore.
joel of Texas Posted at 10:57 AM October 21, 2010
Juarez isn't 60km west of Guadalupe. If you went 60km west, you'd be pretty far into Texas! Also, Guadalupe is 321km from the border, not exactly a border town. (I should know, being a Texan). Still a great story though!

I'm hoping I can get some advice or encouragement. My DD is 25 months and we just started training three days ago. We have had her potty for a long time. She would sit on it and even sometimes potty in it when she was 16-17 months old.
She started not wanting to sit on the potty and getting upset about it, so we backed off. She came back around to wanting to sit on it (bare bottom) but would not pee on it. I finally decided it's time to really go for it so I had her give her diapers to YDD (which she was all for) and let her go bare bottom for two days. The past day and a half she's been wearing underwear. She has not taken a nap since we started, I do not put her in a diaper when I put her down for a nap and she has just not slept. She does get a diaper at night time.
To sum up our experience she will hold her pee for up to three hours until she can't hold it anymore and then will get very upset and go on the floor. She wants to sit on the potty and will do so on her own for 1-2 hours, but when it comes time to pee she will get upset and try to get up. No amount of encouragement or reward (we've been using fruit snacks and stickers) seems to help.
She understands the concept, will happily tell me that "stinkys" (her word for pee) don't go on the floor and don't go on your foot and don't go in her underwear. If I ask her where "stinkys" and poop go, she tells me in the potty. I give her the choice between sitting on her potty or the big potty with a seat on it. I take her with me to show her how Momma does it and have used to doll/syringe trick. She has even taken her dolls to use the potty. She even asks to use the potty sometimes, just never goes on it.
She seems mentally and physically ready for this (she's able to hold it for so long and knows when she's about to release) she just has this roadblock about getting it in the potty. The few successes we have had I give her a fruit snack and a sticker right away and tell her "hooray! You made it in the potty! Awesome job, high five!" or something of the like. But the only times we've has success are when she has been sitting on the potty for a really long time and is distracted (by a show or playing her iphone) or I catch her midstream and toss her on the potty.
She will tell me as she starts to go "stinkys come out!" and I'll run to her and say "Stinkys go in the potty, stinkys go in the potty!" and take her there. She usually won't finish in the potty. She happily helps me clean up, I have her blot it up with paper towels and give her a wipe to wipe off her legs. She has pooped both on the floor and in her underwear. She says, "oh no!" as it starts to come out. Once I got her to the potty in time for one little poop to come out in it. I then have her watch as I place her poop in the little potty and she helps me take it to the big potty and flush it down saying "bye bye poop".
I'm sorry if this is kind of long and jumbled. I feel like there's no turning back at this point, but when do I give up? What do I do to get her to actually go on the potty? It is so time consuming and frustrating. She has always been one of those kids who does things only when she's ready and then she just does it 100% (she never took timid steps while learning to walk, just up and started walking one day on her own). I'm at a loss. Please help!

Kurumba Maldives Celebrates 40 Years on The 3rd Of October 2012.
Kurumba Maldives is set on a tropical island in the North Male' atoll conveniently a brief 10 minute speed boat ride away from the airport.
During 2012, Kurumba Maldives completed 40 key activities to celebrate its Ruby Anniversary. These included an event to raise money for Villingili orphanage, a coordinated dive by 40 divers to celebrate 40 years of house reef diving, a lunch for long service team members, a Maldives Mothers Cooking class, a photo competition for guests, and the launch of Kurumba's 40th anniversary coffee table book called The Kurumba Story.
A resort formal dinner was hosted on the 3rd October with a number of key foreign media, local politicians, regularly returning guests, key previous staff members and other local personalities.
The anniversary evening began with champagne (or sparkling fruit juice) for guests as they arrived, served in the resort's high-roofed reception pavilion, followed by dinner in the hotel's Bougainvillea ballroom. Guests were treated to an amazing live sand art presentation by a Maldivian artist and as each slide was presented, events drawn from the resort's history were narrated. A sales presentation from the early 80's was then shown to highlight how far the resort has progressed.
The Chairman of the owning company, Universal Enterprises, M U Maniku, who was one of the founders of Kurumba in 1972, gave a speech of charm and modesty before presenting awards to staff who had served for more than 30 years, to regular returning guests, and to Euro Divers who have been with Kurumba since the early days. The dinner was described as "a perfect happy family affair with a few old friends joining the Maniku brothers and children in commemorating the anniversary of the resort that remains the first in the Maldives in every positive sense."
During the anniversary dinner, the coffee table book about the history of Kurumba was released and is now available at Kurumba and will be featured within the Kurumba Villas.
The importance of the occasion was noted in the menu in a quotation from the book: "For the visitor to the Maldives in 2012, it must be hard to imagine how the islands were 40 years before, when Kurumba opened to receive her first guests on 3 October 1972…The advent of Kurumba as a holiday resort was the catalyst for much of what has happened in the Maldives since then."
Royston Ellis, the author of The Kurumba Story, stated: "For the resort of Kurumba, Maldives, life really does seem to begin at 40. I've been visiting the resort for 20 years and seen it evolve from an uncertain adolescence of trying to balance island culture and conventions with the curious demands of contemporary tourists. The resort is now mature, self-confident and pleasing in personality, letting the Maldivian instinct for hospitality and genuine friendship shine through in support of keen professionalism. For business or pleasure and sheer convenience there is no better value place to stay in the Maldives."
The evening was a great success and highlighted how much Kurumba has developed over the years and continues to be a leader within the Maldives.

The objectives of this project were to document current quality management and improvement efforts across departments and programs, develop criteria for selecting areas for potential coordination or collaboration, select a collaborative project to improve the quality of care to persons with disabilities, and design and implement this project. The project chosen was in the area of serious event management. This report outlines the process of project selection, pre-design planning and system design for a reportable event system for aged and disabled populations.
Cutler Institute for Health and Social Policy
Designing a Reportable Event System: A Collaborative Quality Improvement Project
Cutler Institute awarded $600,000 to help youth raised in foster system
USM's Cutler Institute for Health and Social Policy has been awarded a $600,000 grant to help young people raised in Maine's foster system to prepare for college and the workforce.
The money comes from the Annie E. Casey Foundation as part of a $5.4 million national effort aimed at youth who are homeless or in either the foster care or juvenile justice systems.
"Many of these young people have suffered abuse or trauma and were raised in poverty and neglect," said Marty Zanghi, the Cutler Center's youth development director.
The money -- including an expected $400,000 more in matching funds -- will pay for contracted work with agencies in the target areas, starting with the greater Portland area and Penobscot, Kennebec and Somerset counties.
Nationally and in Maine, only about 3 percent of people who grow up in the foster care system achieve a college degree, he said.
"It's dramatically lower than the rate for the general population," Zanghi said. "It's a horrible outcome."
It doesn't have to be that way, though.
"There are young people that overcome these circumstances," he said. "I know people who have master's degrees and Ph.Ds."
The Casey Foundation's national effort is being called the "Learn and Earn to Achieve Potential" (LEAP) initiative.
The initiative is working on partnerships in Maine and nine other areas: Alaska, Arizona, California, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska and New York. In each case, people will adapt two evidence-based models to meet the needs of these youth, including support to address the trauma they may have experienced in their lives.
In Maine, the work will include a pair of successful programs, Jobs for Maine Graduates (JMG) and Jobs for the Future. Results will be carefully tracked, Zanghi said.
After the first year, the program is expected to grow.
"Eventually, the additional help will be available to all children, 14 and over, in the foster care system in the state of Maine," Zanghi said.

Florida Women Pilots Celebrate Over 75 Years of Flying
The Florida Goldcoast Chapter of the Ninety-Nines celebrated its Diamond Anniversary with a gala party for all aviators, at the Wayman Aviation Hangar on the south side of North Perry Airport, Pembroke Pines, Florida. The program included a luncheon, music and dancing, a silent auction, an FAA sanction safety seminar, a presentation by Black Hawk pilot Elizabeth McCormick and flights in a Redbird simulator.
One of the highlights of the event was a presentation of a $2,000 Aviation Training Scholarship to a Female Aviator. It will be given in honor of three World War II Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP), who were leaders in the Chapter. At age 93 Ruth Fleisher still resides in Homestead. Helen Snapp of Pembroke Pines and Fran Sargent, have passed away, Fran Sargent worked tirelessly for our Scholarship Programs throughout her life.
Our Chapter has partnered with CEO Alex Farkas at ADF Airways Miami Flight Academy for the last five years and benefited from their generous offer to award a Next Generation 737-800 Jet Checkout Scholarship ground school and simulator at their state of the art ADF Airways Jet Airline Transition Program at KTMB. We normally award this at our December annual Scholarship Award Celebration Luncheon but will be making the formal award to 2016 recipient Taryn Fleet by Representatives from ADF at the Chapter Diamond Anniversary Celebration.
Today's 70-member Florida Goldcoast Chapter was chartered in 1940 with 14 members as the first Ninety-Nines Chapter in the state. It sponsored a women's air show that led to the creation of the Powder Puff Derby, a transcontinental air race. Today the Goldcoast Chapter is active in aviation education, mentoring new pilots and assisting aspiring professionals with scholarships. It has awarded over 35 scholarships, totaling $40,000. The chapter's members include a variety of aviatrix from student pilots through all ratings with jobs ranging from airline first officers and captains, corporate and military pilots, aviation educators, FAA inspectors.

Warm, rousing cheers greeted the announcements of winners at the Walnut Street Theatre, which was packed with theater artists and fans.
Ruhl's two-act work, about the early medical use of vibrators to cure women of "hysteria," had been on Broadway only two seasons back. The Wilma's was among its first subsequent stagings and won for best production of a play last season, as well as for ensemble acting. Wilma artistic director Blanka Zizka took home a Barrymore for the best director of a play.

Trends in retirement plan coverage
March 10, 2006
Although there has been only a slight decline in overall retirement plan coverage, employer-sponsored plans have changed considerably in the last decade.
Participation in defined contribution plans has eclipsed participation in defined benefit plans.
In 1992-93, 32 percent of private-industry workers participated in a defined benefit plan, while 35 percent participated in a defined contribution plan. By 2005, the percentage of employees participating in defined contribution plans had increased to 42 percent, while the percentage participating in defined benefit plans had fallen to 21 percent.
One explanation given for the changes in retirement coverage is the shift in the labor force toward different occupations and industries over the last decade. Particularly relevant is the relative decline in employment among full-time workers, union workers, and workers in goods-producing establishments. Traditionally, employers in good-producing industries, especially mining and manufacturing, have offered defined benefit plans more so than service-producing industries have.
Data in this article are from the BLS National Compensation Survey program. For additional information, see "Trends in retirement plan coverage over the last decade," by Stephanie L. Costo, Monthly Labor Review, February 2006.
