This application is related to and claims the benefit of priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/676,993, filed on May 2, 2005, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates generally to the field of head and back support cushion devices for seats, and more particularly, to a head or back support cushion.
Cushion devices for chairs or other seats are typically used to provide head, neck, or back support for a user. People often place cushions on the backrest of a seat in order to give them added support and comfort as they sit in either an upright or inclined position. The angle of incline of the seat and the specific preferences or needs of the user dictate the location on the backrest of the seat at which the user desires the cushion to be placed. One problem that often arises with seat cushions is that their positioning on the backrest of the seat changes as the user moves in the chair or leans forward, allowing gravity to pull the cushion in a downward direction. A number of devices in the prior art utilize a variety of fastening arrangements that fix cushions in place by connecting them to the seat. However, these attachments make vertical and lateral adjustment of the cushion, as well as its removal from the seat, more complicated.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,387,886 shows a headrest mounted on a pair of brackets made of spring steel and forming a 'V' shape enclosure. The device snaps over the uppermost portion of an automobile seat. As wing nuts on the device are tightened, the resulting increased spring tension against the seat locks the headrest assembly in place.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,738,488 shows an adjustable headrest with an elongated tab with a fastener to hang the adjustable headrest from the back of a seat or to hold the headrest in a doubled-over position to function as a neck support. The device contains a "U shaped" bolster or pillow with an elongated tab containing VELCRO™ brand connection strips and is fastened to a flexible fabric panel.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,567,015 shows an inflatable headrest device with two cushions attached to a sheet member with a mechanism for securing the apparatus to the back of a chair. The device contains a flexible sheet member, a pair of lateral head support cushions, and belts and straps to secure the device to the seat.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,030,034 shows a storage bag and chair cover that can act as a pillow. This device contains VELCRO™ brand connection straps that attach the device to the chair.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,254,189 shows a body support device that allows the user to modify the density of specific parts of the device by redistributing filler material in the device through a continuous hollow chamber. The device contains a hollow housing member that has a hollow neck portion and bulbous housing elements on opposite sides of the hollow neck portion which combine to form a continuous hollow chamber. The hollow chamber is partially filled with filler material that can be redistributed throughout the hollow chamber to vary the firmness and density of the bulbous housing elements.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,484,335 shows a pillow unit containing a pillow, a pocket assembly, and straps connecting the pillow to the back of a seat.
U.S. Pat. No. 6,748,615 shows a neck supporting cushion containing a securing unit that has elongated adjustable straps with cooperating fasteners on opposite ends, a pillow unit that contains a pillow member and a cylindrically shaped fabric envelope filled with foam beads or other particulate material, and a removable cover unit that has a cylindrically shaped fabric cover with end panels dimensioned to slidably receive the elongated strap member and hidden elongated zipper portion.
U.S. Design No. 400,042 shows an ornamental design for a headrest cover.
Thus, while the foregoing body of prior art reveals numerous portable pillows or cushions that can be attached to the backs of chairs, there is a need for a neck or back support device that can be manufactured inexpensively and can be used easily, without the need for various attachment mechanisms.
The present invention in accordance with one embodiment contains a cushion device, for example, in the shape of a cylindrical pillow body having an elongated skirt portion with an inner side and an outer side attaching at one end to the outer circumference of the cylindrical pillow body. In accordance with another embodiment of the invention, the cylindrical pillow body has a tapered portion in the middle. Furthermore, in yet another embodiment, the inner side of the skirt portion includes a friction portion having a high coefficient of static friction.
The cushion device, when configured with the skirt extending over the front face, upper end, and rear face of the backrest of a seat, fixes the cylindrical pillow body at any desired height against the backrest of the seat. The inner side of the skirt portion holds the cylindrical pillow body at the specified height and prevents it from moving. As neither the skirt portion nor the cylindrical pillow body attaches to the seat, the cushion device is easily adjustable and removable. If the user places the cylindrical pillow body at head level, then the exemplary tapered portion provides lateral support.
This device can be easily stored, for example, under a seat because the skirt portion wraps around the cylindrical pillow, and the tapered portion allows the device to be folded in half.
Various other objects, advantages and features of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following discussion taken in conjunction with the following drawings, in which:
Reference is now made to the drawings, wherein like characteristics and features of the present invention shown in the various FIGS. are designated by the same reference numerals.
Referring to
Cylindrical pillow body 12 has a first side 18, a second side 20, an outer circumference 22 between the first side 18 and the second side 20, a tapered portion 24 in the middle of it and a zipper 26 on the outer circumference 22 running along a substantially horizontal axis. The interior of cylindrical pillow body 12 contains a removable pillow cushion 27 having substantially the same shape as the pillow body itself. In one embodiment of the invention, the cylindrical pillow body includes two side sections 12 a and 12 c and a middle section 12 b having a diameter smaller than the adjoining side sections so as to form the taper portion 24. However, as mentioned previously, the invention is not limited in scope in that respect and other forms and shapes of pillows are contemplated within the context of the present invention.
Skirt portion 14 has a first end 28 attached to the outer circumference 22 of cylindrical pillow body 12 along a substantially horizontal axis, a second free end 30, an inner side 32, and an outer side 34. Friction portion 16, is defined within the inner side 32 of skirt portion 14 in a desired shape, such as a rectangular shape as shown in
Referring to
An exemplary use of apparatus 10 in accordance with one embodiment of the invention is further explained in reference with
Friction portion 16 prevents cylindrical pillow body 12 from sliding. In addition, the weight of skirt portion 14, hanging over the backrest 52 helps prevent cylindrical pillow body 12 from sliding in a downward direction. Cylindrical pillow body 12 can be placed at any desired point along front face 54 of seat 50, but would most often be utilized at the upper end 58, to support the user's head or neck, or at the lower end 60, to support the user's lower back. The support apparatus 10 is especially useful for a woman nursing an infant It may also be draped over a car seat or the headboard of a bed.
The tapered portion 24 (see
An exemplary use of apparatus 110 in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention is described in reference with
A user by moving the shoulder flaps up and down can easily adjust the position of cylindrical pillow 120 within the neck or back area. The user can then lean back in the seat. This configuration will provide support to the users head, neck, or back and provide a place to put a napkin or bib while feeding a baby. This arrangement allows the user to use the support device with public seats, such as for example on airplane seats, without the need to rest the skirt portion on the back rest of the airplane seat. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, the side of skirt portion 140 that rests on the user's back is made of a material having a sufficiently high friction coefficient, so as to avoid sliding along the user's back. As such, pillow body 120 remains in the same desired position along the user's back, even when the user is not leaning against the back rest, until such time that the user readjusts its position.
While the invention has been described and shown in various terms and certain embodiments, the scope of the invention is not intended to be, nor should it be deemed to be, limited thereby and such other modification or embodiments as may be suggested by the teachings herein are particularly reserved especially as they fall within the breadth and scope of the claims here appended.

Sedona's a stunner, but it's intensely spiritual as well – some even say sacred. Nestled amid striking red sandstone formations at the south end of the 16-mile gorge that is Oak Creek Canyon, Sedona attracts spiritual seekers, artists and healers, as well as day-trippers from Phoenix trying to escape the oppressive heat. Many New Age types believe that this area is the center of vortexes (not 'vortices' here in... Read More

OCEAN CITY, N.J. - Labor Day at the Jersey Shore. It's when sun umbrellas are snapped shut with finality, this year's beach badges are transformed from currency into souvenirs, and people depart moist-eyed.
For lifeguard Bob "Domino" Speca, it was the shrill blast of his own whistle Monday afternoon that signaled that his beach patrol days were nearly up - forever. Speca retired from lifeguarding after more than 30 summers protecting swimmers on the beaches of this Cape May County resort.
"That might have been it. . . . That might have been my last one," said Speca, wistfully returning to the lifeguard stand after guiding swimmers back to a safe zone on the Park Place beach between Third and Fourth Streets. "I'm going to bronze this whistle. Save it, cherish it."

Q.: Why does short selling reduce share prices?
A: To short-sell a share speculators have to borrow the shares in the first place. Once they have done this they need to sell them in the market, and if this is done en-masse it can push the share price of a company down in the short term as there are more sellers than buyers in the market. Hedge funds specialising in short selling may also cause panic in the market by selling lots of shares in a company as other shareholders become worried about the share price plunge. Some companies will blame short sellers for dramatic declines in their stock price. The practice is so controversial that bans on short selling are not unknown and during the last credit crisis in 2008, traders were not allowed to short-sell certain banks and financial institutions.
Most borrowers and lenders of shares are institutions, brokers, etc. Mere mortals can borrow indirectly by using Spread Bets or Contracts for Difference. If you go short, you are effectively borrowing shares to sell for money; if you go long, you are effectively borrowing money to buy shares. Depending on the balance between shorts and longs, the company offering these products may choose to cover the risk by borrowing real shares to sell or by investing money to buy real shares.
Q.: What can you do to prevent your shares holdings from being shorted?
Hold your shares in a cash account.
Phone your broker and put an order in saying that you wish to place your shares for sale at, for arguments sake, double today's price. As they are 'on order' they cannot be lent out by your broker. There is some dispute on this point

Night of Champions 2011 had a triple main event and the WWE Championship match was one.
Admittedly, it was the least exciting main event and seemed lost in the shuffle between the World Heavyweight Championship match and Triple H vs. CM Punk.
Nevertheless, there are still a few points we can pick up from John Cena's win tonight.
I have highlighted seven things one can learn from the outcome of this match.

Pros: I have had this card for 3+ years in constant use in my desktop. It was a part of my first build, and was passed down on to me for free by a cousin.
For a 7 year old card, I must say that I am impressed. It doesn't run everything on max, but it runs everything I throw at it (in 2014 keep in mind) at medium-high settings. I have never had a problem with it, except you couldn't play higher graphics demanding games with the best fps or settings. But at it's age, it does a better job than I could ask it to. Back in 2007, it was one of the best cards out there, and it is just now reaching the end of its time. That is what you call a quality product.
It still runs, even now, and I will continue to run it till it dies.
Cons: None. None at all.
Other Thoughts: I am going to upgrade to a MSI Dominator-893 soon, and I came to see what the reviews on my current GPU were. I thought it would be apt to leave a review for this warrior of a card, as I have had it close to 4 years now.READ FULL REVIEW

Looking at one of Angela Trotta Thomas paintings is like taking a step back in time. Thomas has been painting Lionel toy trains for the past 20 years.
Her work with the trains began in the early 1990s, when her husband, Bob, a Lionel train collector, suggested she paint the trains for her master thesis project.
These toys were the kind that became icons and were passed down through generations. He had all the catalogs, and I admired them, she said.
Since then, Thomas has become the only artist to be licensed by the toy train company and has been featured on several covers of its catalogs. Her painting on the 2000 cover was the first illustrated cover since 1969, when they switched to photographs.
She will have a show of her work 5-8 p.m. Dec. 7 at Coco Vivo Gallery, 25 Broad St.
Lionel also created an Angela Trotta Thomas Christmas boxcar collection 10 years ago that comes out every year and features her art.
It just seemed like a natural progression. Ten years ago, I licensed them, and before they licensed me, she said.
Lionel was founded in New York City in 1900 when the railroad business was booming and trains were a popular way to travel. Joshua Lionel Cowen was the companys founder and the inventor of the toy trains.
Thomas said many of her paintings are not about the trains themselves, but about the emotional attachment to them. She said many of her paintings are about capturing the romance of train travel like in her painting, Passing Train.
Thomas said toy train collections are popular in the Northeast, where she is from. She said she hopes her relocation to the Charleston area will spark an interest in toy trains in Southerners.
What I have found are most of my (art) collectors are older guys who have been on a quest their whole adulthood to get the trains they couldnt get as kids, she said.
Thomas said the stories of the Lionel collectors inspire her to capture certain moments for her paintings.
I think its the magic Lionel creates a magic about Christmas. Ive listened to a lot of the collectors over the years, and theyve told me their memories. It sparks a lot of warm, fuzzy feelings about Christmas, she said.
Thomas fell in love with Charleston five years ago and relocated to Johns Island from New Jersey this month.
Weve traveled extensively and weve been to a lot of places. We visited five years ago for only 24 hours. I looked at my husband and said, This is it, she said.
Thomas said she knew Charleston was the place for her because it has the ingredients for great art.
I wanted to end up in an artsy place. I wanted to be close to a beach, but I didnt want to give up an urban setting, she said.
Thomas is not just a Lionel painter. She enjoys painting places from around the world and is inspired by architecture.
Im so drawn to all things old. Thats why I related to Charleston. It has an old feel to it. Its the history of the past that intrigues me. Most of my work has that Old World kind of feel, she said.
She hopes everyone, not just toy train collectors, will be inspired by her art.
A lot of the images are things people relate to just because theyre so synonymous with Christmas. You dont have to be a train collector to appreciate them, she said.
Thomas said Lionel collectors are welcome to bring in their catalogs and boxcars for her to sign at the showing. She also give will away signed copies of a Lionel catalog on a first-come, first-served basis.

Have used him as our attorney for over 12 years. Very good and affordabled. He is very thorough. I and my husband would recommind him.
Not the right city, but still good info.
The legal profession is vast, with each attorney having his or her specialties. Here are some of the most common attorneys individuals seek out when they require legal aid:
Criminal Lawyer
A criminal defense lawyer is probably the attorney the average person imagines. Criminal attorneys are the men and women who defend individuals accused of a crime. The lawyer may work pro bono - for the public good - so the accused is certain to have representation, even if he or she cannot afford an attorney.
Criminal lawyers are experts in the criminal justice system. They help their clients decide how to plead when first charged by the police and guide them through trial procedures. Defense lawyers must use every bit of their knowledge and resources to get their clients the fairest results from criminal proceedings.
Business Lawyer
If you are a small business owner or the head of a larger corporation, you may come into contact with a business lawyer. Many big companies keep a legal staff on payroll to deal with the daily operations of running and maintaining a large enterprise. Business lawyers may have more specific specialties like copyright law, product liability and mergers and acquisitions.
Business attorneys may focus their practices on certain industries. There are entertainment lawyers to guide artists through royalties and media contracts, while hospitals employ malpractice attorneys to protect doctors from aggressive litigation.
Employment Lawyer
When you work for a company, you may find yourself in need of an employment lawyer - especially if the relationship between you and your employer sours. An employment attorney prevents people from losing their jobs due to unfair reasons. Workers' compensation lawyers help maintain safe employment conditions and ensure workers receive fair compensation after workplace injury or discrimination.
Finance Lawyer
A personal finance attorney can protect and manage your investments and securities. You may use a finance lawyer to help you prepare your taxes, but you might be better off working with an accountant. A tax attorney is more commonly contacted after a business or individual runs into trouble with the IRS or state regulators.
Real Estate Lawyer
Your family may keep a lawyer on retainer to guide you through the major expenses that come up in life. When buying a home, you could work with a real estate lawyer to make sure you get the best deal and won't get taken advantage of by tricky mortgage agreements or unfair landlords. An estate attorney can help you plan for the worst by creating a will and preparing your finances for after your death.
Bankruptcy Lawyer
A bankruptcy lawyer is essential to help you resolve your financial difficulties when they start to spin out of control. Certain attorneys help create strategies to bring you out of debt and speak to your creditors. A lawyer can advise you on which type of bankruptcy you should file for.
Civil Lawyer
If you are suing someone or being sued, you need a civil lawyer. Civil attorneys - and criminal lawyers - are the legal representatives who argue on your behalf in a courtroom setting. Civil lawyers may represent you on matters of business, finance or a wide variety of other specialized needs.
One of the most common types of civil attorneys is a personal injury lawyer. When you're hurt by an outside party and you would like to hold them legally responsible, a personal injury attorney conducts litigation and negotiates settlements to compensate for your pain and suffering. Sometimes many wronged people will join together with a single civil lawyer or law office to form a class action lawsuit.
Family/Divorce Lawyer
Most people will turn to a lawyer during a divorce to navigate the emotionally charged legal proceedings. A divorce attorney can assist in determining grounds for separation, division of property and custody of children.
Family attorneys deal with much more personal matters. If you're getting married, a family lawyer can help you prepare a prenuptial agreement or other family planning paperwork such as adoption or inheritance documents.
To ensure you find a competent attorney who won't abuse your trust or drain your finances, you have to make the proper inquiries. There are several questions you should ask, but the majority will fall under three general topics:
Training and Experience Questions
One of the best ways to determine quality is to examine an attorney's history. When you first step into a lawyer's office, you should check for the appropriate certifications and diplomas. You have to ask how long he or she has practiced law and request information that demonstrates the practice's success. Look for precise details such as percentage of cases settled out of court.
Once you inquire about the broad details of their legal career, you should ask questions about their experience that pertains to your specific issue. You should ask how many similar cases they have handled and if they have special skills or training that applies specifically to your needs. Lawyers can't mention clients by name, but you should ask for basic details about identical past cases.
Financial Questions
You need to ask about every possible fee that will come up when working with an attorney. You should request a list of all costs in advance so you won't be surprised by additional expenses like overhead. Also determine exactly when you will start being billed. You want to inspect paperwork carefully. If the attorney charges you for his or her experience, you need to make sure he or she will perform tasks personally and not hand it off to an assistant.
Find out if the attorney has a flat fee or charges by the hour. Many civil lawyers work on contingency. Whatever the payment plan, make inquiries about how the lawyer plans to provide service for your money and what you can do if you start to feel unsatisfied with his or her performance.
Lawyer/Client Relationship Questions
When you hire a lawyer, you're agreeing to work with someone over a certain period of time. You need to ask questions about how the attorney will communicate with you and what responsibilities you hold in the relationship. The attorney should let you know the best channel for quick communication and you need to inform him or her when you want updates.
You should also ask questions to get to know the attorney as an individual in order to ensure this is a person you can trust. Ask about their legal philosophy and how he or she views the lawyer/client relationship. Great questions to start off with are ones that will make your life easier, such as how to keep fees down or what daily disruptions you should expect from a long legal battle. The more forthcoming the lawyer appears to be with individual needs, the better.
You may keep a lawyer on retainer or you could turn to an attorney during specific situations. Here are some common reasons people begin seeking legal representation or advice:
You Know Your Limitations
If you sign documents and you come across a word you don't recognize, you need assistance. You may need a third party to help you navigate important employment or real estate paperwork. It's essential you fully understand the terms of any legally binding documentation or activity you become a part of. If you are not an expert in a given field, you'll want to hire an attorney who is.
A lawyer may find legal implications or opportunities you might miss. If you find yourself in a civil or criminal matter, a proper attorney ensures you don't receive a harsh punishment for a small mistake.
You're Facing an Important Event/Decision
When making decisions critical to your financial stability or personal life, you may want a lawyer with expertise in your situation to make sure you do everything you can to arrive at the proper resolution. This is especially true when you become involved in a criminal case and your freedom is on the line.
It's not just a matter of legal knowledge; lawyer's have access to numerous resources you do not. They have staff ready to work around the clock and experts in a variety of fields to give your important issues the attention they deserve.
You Can't Be Impartial
During times when personal matters intersect with legal proceedings, you may need to have an advocate to prevent your emotions from getting in the way of level-headed thinking. For example, divorce lawyers can mediate a heated argument and help both partners get on with their lives.
Emotional investment could be subtle. You may want to have a lawyer look over an investment opportunity that looks too good to be true or investigate the merits of a possible civil suit when you feel wronged.
You're Out of Options
Many people turn to lawyers when they are in trouble. If you've been accused of a crime or are in a terrible financial situation, you can find an attorney who will work with what you have available to assist you as you deal with your problems.
Personal injury lawyers find solutions for people who can no longer work under their own power and bankruptcy attorneys prevent people from giving in to debt. If you find yourself in a situation where you can't find a solution, a lawyer may be able to offer the counsel you need.
When it comes time to choose a lawyer, you should start by searching close to home. While you probably don't want the conflict of interest that comes from being represented by a family member, friends and loved ones can recommend lawyers who served them well in the past. If you do have attorneys you are familiar with, ask who they believe would be best for you.
After going through personal references - especially from individuals who had similar needs - you should broaden your search through public information resources. You can call your area's attorney referral service or check legal organizations like Martindale-Hubbell. There are other resources available online. You should check websites for client reviews and other third-party forms of approval.
When you build a list of possible candidates, perform a background check on each one. See if you can find information on their history and success record. Once you find a possible lawyer, you should call to arrange a consultation so you can ask your important questions in person.
By performing the necessary research and taking every available precaution, you can narrow your search to the attorney most suited to your needs.

ATLANTA - This week marks the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Atlanta, one of the key conflicts of the Civil War, and researchers at Emory University's Center for Digital Scholarship have released a mobile app for the tour.
"We developed the Battle of Atlanta mobile application in order to provide a 21st century version of the historical markers that mark sites of the Battle of Atlanta and other Civil War landmarks around the city," said Dr. Daniel Pollock, a physician, Civil War scholar and co-developer of the program.
After more than two years in development, the Web-based and GPS-enabled application contains copious information about the major campaigns fought throughout the city. The fight began ramping up on July 22, 1864, as Union Gen. William T. Sherman's troops advanced on Confederate Gen. John B. Hood's forces.
After years of growth, virtually all of the sites have been developed and paved over. Much of what remains are scores of random historical markers scattered far and wide. The app's intent is simplicity and historical accuracy.
"So the Battle of Atlanta was really important in the Civil War because it was the moment in which Sherman's forces set the Confederacy back far enough that it enabled Abraham Lincoln to be re-elected as president," said Emory digital scholar Brian Croxall. "His campaign for the re-election in 1864 was anything but a sure bet until the Atlanta campaign was concluded."
The developers narrowed their focus to what they believe are the 12 major historical sites. One of those sites is the August Hurt House where Sherman set up his field headquarters. It's the present-day location of The Carter Center, the library of former President Jimmy Carter.
Janice Reed, an operating room nurse, recently took part of the tour with her daughter and granddaughter.
"It was just so fascinating that someone had finally did this where you could go online, you could get in your car and go to where the battlefield was and get a concept of how the Battle of Atlanta was fought."
In order to make the application as easy to use as possible, open source code was used.
"We wanted to use a web app, a web-based application instead of something for the Apple iTunes app store or Google Play store because we wanted to hit as many people as possible," Croxall states. "We wanted to make it easy so you don't have to install something; you can just simply go to the website and it will work on any Internet device regardless of which operating system it uses."

Emory Universitys Center for Digital Scholarship released a web-based, GPS enhanced app for mobile devices to honor the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Atlanta. The app is a tour of the 12 most significant battle events that began July 22, 1864.×

The Nazareth Swifts, 1-4, haven't entered district play with a losing record since 1995 when they were 1-2-1. They haven't missed the playoffs since 1998 when they were 3-2 in District 3-1A and tied with Kress, finishing behind Springlake-Earth and Happy. Only two teams made the playoffs back then. The last time the Swifts had a losing record was 1988 when they finished 0-9-1. And finally, the Swifts will take a 20-game district win streak into their opener against Bovina today. The last time they lost a district game was to Sudan, 21-18, on Oct. 29, 2004.

I bought a Satellite L55-A5284 a week ago, everything was working fine until i decided to watch a film on Netflix today. After the film I realised that it was difficult to use my cursor, it's super jumpy and the touchpad barely even works anymore. The only way i can even manage to use my laptop is by using a USB Mouse. I'm still on Windows 8, and from what i've seen here on these forums, this is a very common problem among toshiba laptops.
Should i reinstall a driver or something? Please, i need to solve this as soon as posible as i'm using this laptop for college and its very annoying to have to find a decent place to also use the USB mouse.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated since i'm not that tech saavvy.
You can try reinstalling the TouchPad driver, Marlene. HERE is the link for the Synaptics driver you probably need although the Alps TouchPad is sometimes used. If you need the Alps driver, post back and I'll get the link for you.
As of now, the Toshiba Download server is out of action so you'll have to keep trying the link until it works. The server has been down since late yesterday.
I had to open the laptop up and make sure the cable was fully inserted for the touchpad. Once I did this, I had to restart the machine with the newest drivers and it worked like a charm. You have to unscrew the battery since the cable runs under that. FYI: it's a thin white cabel. At least it was on my Toshiba Satellite L55-A5284.
Hope this helps...

Stay away from this guy. If you have complications, he will let you die.
Dr. Gagner completed my revision from open RNY to VSG laproscopically. I have been through multiple surgeries and complications in the past. I never thought it was possible to have such extensive surgery and be up walking around montreal two days later....simply amazing. The fact that he doesn't have an office staff and is pretty much only reachable by email is somewhat frustrating, but he has always followed up and when I develope a minor post op infection he coordinated with a former student of his in Florida to help me past it. Over all, he is truly a uniquely qualified surgeon and I feel fortunate to have had him as my physician.
I have unfortunately had to endure many surgeries, until I met Dr. Gagner I was convinced that pain and complications were unavoidable. He performed a revision surgery laproscopically that most surgeons can't even perform open. Many people I know undergoing the same revision spent days in ICU and weeks in recovery with other surgeons. I was out of the hospital in 48 hours and had very little discomfort. Quite simply amazing and if I ever needed a surgeon again he is without a doubt my first choice.
Dr.Gagner is a very gifted surgeon, but that's it...no office staff and no way to reach him except by email. If you can find a good surgeon in your area with the added support I'd go with them, if all you want is a great surgeon Dr. Gagner is up to the task, just remember the rest is up to you.
I had a post-op complication and he was rude and unhelpful. Although I think he is technically an excellent surgeon, I would never use him again, nor ever recommend him to anyone else. I am a physician and would never treat my patients the way he treated me.
Dr. Gagner is an expert in his field. I credit him with saving my life. He was gentle, caring and intent that I understood the procedure he was performing. He listened to all my questions and concerns and made sure I was comfortable. I was lucky to have him as my surgeon. Missing you in NY. Thank you Dr. G.

Dinner for Two: Small Meal Ideas for Valentine's Day
basic recipe makes plenty for two with a little leftover, and you can top it with any sauce that suits your fancy. We've had this Tagliatelle with Chestnuts, Proscuitto and Sage from Gourmet on our list for a while. 2. Steamed Mussels - We absolutely love mussels, but we often forget how easy and fun it is to make them at home. They can be a simple starter for the dinner or serve them over some linguini for a full meal. We're eying this recipe for Buttery Steamed Mussels with Sake and Chilis from Epicurious. 3. Braised Short Ribs - Just buy two of the meatiest short ribs you can find and scale back the braising liquid to make this into a dinner for two. These Southwestern Braised Short Ribs from Fine Cooking sound like they'd add some spice to the evening! 4. Creamy Risotto - Risotto is another recipe that is easy to scale back to two people. Most recipes use 2 cups of rice to feed 4-6 people, so just cut the entire recipe in half. A good Mushroom Risotto like this one from Martha Stewart is a sure winner. 5. Fish in Parchment - This is a simple and elegant way to prepare fish - and get it right every time. Throw some veggies into the parchment packet along with the fish and you've got an entire meal! We like the sound of this recipe for Asian-Style Halibut in Parchment from Real Simple. What will you be making for Valentine's Day? Related: Good Recipes for Small-Portioned Treats for Two?

Ethan Jarlewski and five co-workers whose surnames end in 'J' are bureaucratically marooned in JPod. JPod is a no-escape architectural limbo on the fringes of a massive Vancouver game design company. The six workers daily confront the forces that define our era: global piracy, boneheaded marketing staff, people smuggling, the rise of China, marijuana grow-ops, Jeff Probst, and the ashes of the 1990s financial tech dream. JPod's universe is amoral and shameless. The characters are products of their era even as they're creating it. Everybody in Ethan's life inhabits a moral grey zone. Nobody is exempt, not even his seemingly straitlaced parents or Coupland himself. Full of word games, visual jokes and sideways jabs, this book throws a sharp, pointed lawn dart into the heart of contemporary life.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Already dubbed Microserfs 2.0 by some pundits--a winking allusion to Douglas Coupland's previous novel Microserfs, which similarly chronicled pop-culture-damaged twentysomething misfits flailing, foundering, and occasionally succeeding in the high-tech sector-- JPod is, like all of Coupland's novels, a byproduct of its era and yet strangely detached from it. Only this time with a bold and very crafty narrative device: Douglas Coupland, novelist, is a character in Douglas Coupland's novel. Which, when you think about it, makes sense since the type of people Coupland depicts are precisely the type of people who consume Coupland novels. As the once-great comedian Dennis Miller might holler, "Stop him before he sub-references again!" Readers familiar with Coupland's oeuvre know what to expect with the characterizations here. They also know that Coupland on a roll is both savagely observant and laugh-out-loud funny: "Bree was showing someone photos of her recent holiday visiting Korean animation sweathshops. She was bummed because she couldn't get into North Korea: too much legal juju. [She said] 'I just wanted to know what it's like to be in a society with no technology except for three dial telephones and a TV camera they won from Fidel Castro in a game of rock paper scissors.'" Much of the book is like that, built on granular and meandering exchanges between characters about . . . stuff. While JPod's flow is hobbled by some preposterous twists and character traits and by random words, phrases, and numbers splattered gratuitously across successive pages in oversized typeface, it's hard to imagine Coupland fans walking away disappointed. --Kim HughesAbout the Author:
Douglas Coupland is a novelist who also works in visual arts and theatre. His novels include Generation X, All Families Are Psychotic, Hey Nostradamus! and Eleanor Rigby. He lives and works in Vancouver, Canada. For more information, visit www.coupland.com.

Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida was once undefeated on his road to the title successfully knocking out Rashad "Sugar" Evans and defending it once again Mauricio "Shogun" Rua then losing in the rematch.
Displaying an ever elusive fighting style he experienced success throughout most of his career with notable wins over Randy Couture, Tito Ortiz, Rashad Evans, Rich Franklin, BJ Penn, Shogun, and a who's who of MMA fighting elite.
"I've had a great career. I've always wanted to give a good show for the people especially from Brazil. My style is the Machida style and this is why I fight. I try very hard to keep the belt even drinking my own pee pee.
Jon Jones is beatable. I was using my Karate style to confuse him in the first round. Then he was able to takedown, then from there I got sloppy. I will never forget or forgive him for choking me and leaving me in the Octagon. One day Anderson will avenge me for him."
Ed Soares states that he had no idea that Machida wanted to retire. "I'm actually taken aback. I just spoke to Machida the other week an everything seemed fine. We were even watching Steven Seagal flicks together."
Lyoto joins the long list of hall of famers who are retiring from the sport of MMA.
No way. This interview seems strange, mostly the pee pee part (although true, that is a weird way to say it). The Anderson line is also pretty odd. I dont really buy it.

But I don't know how and I can't find an easy pattern. I have no idea how to knit with circular or DPNs - is this something I can do with just straight needles, and just sew them up? I know how to sew pants, should I just knit panels similar to what I would cut out of fabric if I were sewing, and then proceed to sew them as I normally would? Or would this look like crap in knitting? Thanks for any advice you ladies can provide =)

Debbie Stoller's book Stitch and Bitch Nation has a super cute pair of baby pants called Lil Devil Pants because they have a tail. You could take or leave the tail, and it's a really popular book so your local library should have it if you don't own it already. It looks like they're knit in 2 flat pieces and sewn together in a way so the seam looks nice. In knitting, there are ways to sew pieces together using a strand of yarn so the seam almost disappears.
But I would encourage you, don't be freaked out by circular or DPN knitting. Even though they seem intimidating, they're both really straightforward, and in my opinion, quicker and easier than knitting flat. Good luck and have fun!

Thanks Erika! Could you point me to a good tutorial or info about expanding my needle skills?
Oh, FYI, I've been drinking.
Joy - I was intimidated a lot by knitting in the round and dpns. I now really enjoy it! You know what my favorite resource was? YouTube!! Believe it or not, there are a lot of helpful videos on there for knitters and crocheters. I'm very visual so it helps me to see every little step they do with the needle and where exactly it goes, etc. YouTube videos taught me how to make an I-cord, use dpns, and several different cast-on techniques.

Yeah, the internet is an awesome resource. There were a couple things that I had to go try to find a video demonstration because I just wasn't getting it by pictures or written instructions. There are also a lot of knitting books that have a really long beginning section that lays out all kinds of different techniques, stitches, ways to sew pieces together, etc. The first Stitch and Bitch book was actually what I used to "teach" myself to knit, because I thought the instructions and pictures were really clear. Look around on the internet, or go to a bookstore and just browse and see if there's a book you think might work for you :)

I have totally used YouTube to find different ways to cast on and look at crocheting - I never thought to use it to learn DPNs!! Wahoo, thanks!

Foreign-born workers by occupation, 2006
May 01, 2007
In 2006, a smaller proportion of foreign-born than native-born workers was employed in management, professional, and related occupations, 26.4 versus 36.4 percent.
Foreign-born workers were more likely than their native-born counterparts to be employed in service occupations (22.5 versus 15.4 percent); these included food preparation and serving related occupations and building and grounds cleaning and maintenance occupations.
More than one in four of all native-born workers were employed in sales and office occupations; the proportion of foreign-born workers in these occupations was 17.9 percent.
Foreign-born workers were more likely than native-born workers to be employed in natural resources, construction, and maintenance occupations (16.5 versus 10.0 percent), and in production, transportation, and material moving occupations (16.7 versus 11.9 percent).
These data are from the Current Population Survey. For more information, see "Foreign-Born Workers: Labor Force Characteristics in 2006" (PDF) (TXT), news release USDL 07-0603.

It'd be better than ****ing Newblouse and Bugaga
I miss the days of cliffy and tausch
Good joke for everyone- I saw some people have been saying our oline ain't that bad or our oline will be fine. Hahahahahha
I'm taking my second trip to Lambeau this year but unlike you I'm staying in Appleton. It's about a half an hour away from Green Bay but I've heard a lot of good things about Lombardi's steak house...
Haha yeah right I wish they'd help me out
Goin to opening day against the 9ers and most likely the giants game. Possibly Tennessee too.
lol you sound like you have alot of time on your hands brotha
Off the top of your head? lol PSD's Mike Mayok here
How did we not take Polk? or any decent RB for that matter. Starks gets hurt and we are effed. Especially if we don't bring RG back.
Really loved our first two days. After Mike Daniels today, I'd say day 3 was a bit rough. We could have done better but overall I'm pleased, especially with the added depth.
Hopefully this isn't a sign of a depressing offseason. I trust Ted a lot but sometimes you have to make the no brainers instead of always trying to go with the decision no one else would've thought...
Just because hes not a household name to most people he never gets recognition. Ive always liked this guy. Just goes to show you its all a popularity contest.
See 2010-11 Green Bay Packers lol
Yeah I was worried he didn't check out well from yesterday. :phew:
Man this Dallas offense cant be stopped.
hahah sorry brother but anyone who picks up Bush and is not named Ted Thompson is not a genius lol
So all you people *****ing about how Matt Flynn damaged Rodgers MVP campaign, does this not damage Brees. Its definitely less special when another player breaks the same record.
I see us playing Atlanta no matter what happens tonight. Id like to see the Giants win though becase they're one of the teams I like to root for.
Dont give it to Rodgers. Who cares. Seriously give it to Brees. You think Rodgers cares? As a fan theres only one thing that matters to me and its definitely not an award that a bunch of sports...
J Bush played like every down today. And he blitzed all the time lol
To you people who love to put quotes in your sigs:
Detroit gets blown out. Not even close. Saints win by atleast 14.
Easily the most entertaining game of the year. Some of that has to do with lack of emotional investment lol if that even makes sense. Nonetheless very fun game to watch and a nice little momentum...
One and done. Too young and they lack a ton of composure. You need that bad to win in the playoffs especially in NO.
Congrats from a Packer fan to the Lions fans who have stuck through it all.
Um did u see the second driver TD???

Please note that the location for the NYRR Youth Running Series event on October 8 has changed from Clove Lakes Park to Silver Lake Park on Staten Island.
Donate today and help kids in our city's neediest schools stay on their feet!
New York Road Runners' free youth running programs and events reach over 200,000 children every year. While many of these kids have great enthusiasm and passion for the sport, it's not uncommon to see students running in ill-fitting sneakers, dress shoes, boots, and sandals. By participating in our sneaker drive, you can ensure that children in NYRR's Mighty Milers or Young Runners programs run in footwear that is not only safe, but also helps them onto the path of becoming a lifelong runner.
Watch the excitement as nearly 200 Mighty Milers and Young Runners received new shoes at the Holiday Sneaker Drive in December, and make a donation today to give more children shoes to Run for Life.
Make a direct donation to the sneaker drive online. A $50 donation will cover the cost of sneakers for one child. All donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
The 2016 TCS New York City Marathon Asics Collection is now online!

In this episode of Plea for Power, we look at the topic of the Power of God. Many people want the power of God, but are they willing to pay the price?
We believe power of God will come to a land when there is a push from local churches to plant more local churches. The Bible and revival history have proven that the local church is the hub for evangelism, discipleship, and great awakenings. Let's seek God for Biblical revival through church planting in "all the cities".

NEW YORK — Some use factors, others credit insurance, and some bear risks on their own, but all vendors seem to have some kind of checks and balances in place to avoid losses from bad debt.
This story first appeared in the August 12, 2002 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
VF Corp. checks credit in-house, and does not use credit insurance. Established accounts are reviewed bi-monthly using a credit-scoring model.
"Using external data and combining that information with our internal records, we are able to review our entire account base of 5,000 plus customers to determine if there is any account deterioration," said Mike Durant, director of credit. Stores with low scores are reviewed by a credit manager, and marginal retailers are reviewed monthly, he says.
Since major marginal customers present more financial risk, more communication between VF's coalitions and its corporate finance team is required, Durant said. "The final decision is a group decision, including credit, finance and the coalition or division head," he said.
For new customers, VF gathers financial and trade payment information from credit reporting agencies, and asks a potential customer to provide credit references. If the customer is not credit worthy, several alternatives are available to establish a relationship, including MasterCard and Visa credit cards, electronic payment draft, letters of credit and cash in advance. Smaller customers depend more on payment history and personal relationships.
Kellwood Corp. checks credits in-house for all its divisions through a central office. "We basically have our own credit department with our own team of analysts," said Dave Arnold, vice president of shared services. Kellwood uses some credit agencies and joins credit clubs to stay on top of credit situations, and works with troubled accounts to resolve the problems.
"Basically, we try to work out an arrangement with the customer where we can provide an orderly flow of product to them while staying close in terms of financials, liquidity and credit availability," he said. "Each one is sort of an individual situation."
Although, in "very isolated" cases, Kellwood uses credit insurance, it typically bears the risk itself. "We're here to make a sale. Our goal is not to keep bad debt to zero, so it's more of a balancing act," said Arnold. "We just try to be reasonably sure we're going to be paid."
Arnold believes Kellwood has some leverage given its dominance in the moderate channel. "We've got enough divisions so we have fair enough clout. If they don't pay for one line, they don't buy anything from Kellwood," said Arnold.
BCBG Max Azria uses GMAC Commercial Credit. "We think using a factor is better for administration, and the expertise the factor provides in conjunction with the economies of scale affords with the opportunity to gather more current information and be more effective in the quality of credit checking," said Myron Cozombolidis, vice president of credit at BCBG.
Nonetheless, BCBG does some credit checking in-house and will ship to a retailer the factor won't guarantee based on its own analysis. "We take some risks where we see the need," said Cozombolidis.
London Fog Industries doesn't use a factor primarily because it feels it's more cost-effective to check credit itself, said Marv Toland, chief financial officer. To help watch credits, it uses D&B and Global Credit credit agencies and participates in credit clubs, as well, it occasionally uses credit insurance, spot factoring or puts.
The outerwear firm also works with troubled retailers to limit its exposure, principally by shipping partial orders until some payment arrives.
For instance, prior to its collapse in December 2000, Montgomery Ward requested a $1 million order, and London Fog agreed to ship a third of the order, with another third being shipped when payment for the first shipment arrived.
"This way, we never wanted to be exposed for more than $300,000," said Toland.
When Ward's balked at the terms, London Fog walked away from the order and Toland estimates this saved sizeable bad debt expense.
Everlast Worldwide uses Century Business Credit, which funded the original business. "We do very little credit checking ourselves, and very seldom do we go against their recommendation," said Matt Mark, chief financial officer. "They may cost us a little bit more, but we have a very good relationship with Century."
For smaller accounts, shipment depends on the order's size.
"If it's under $1,000, we ship it. For accounts over $1,000, we do a little credit checking ourselves, but we have never really got burned much on the smaller accounts," said Mark.
Tropical Sportswear uses GMAC for its branded business and CIT for its private label businesses, but the company is analyzing taking collection and bookkeeping functions in-house because it already has a staff handling chargebacks, said Larry McPherson, chief financial officer.
If it ends its traditional factoring relationships, Tropical might look into non-notification factoring, which is basically factoring without the collections service, or credit insurance. However, McPherson said credit issues are not big concerns.
"Most of our customers are bigger retailers like Dillard, J.C. Penney, Wal-Mart and Sam's, and there's not much of a credit problem with them. We do have some smaller mom-and-pops that have issues, but they're controllable," said McPherson.

Tall people
Is it possible for tall people to snowboard. Im 6'8 and really wanna give it a shot because its something new to try and it would give me something fun to do in the winter
Seriously though. I see no problem as long as the board fits
Im 6'5" 180lb the only problem that i have is finding snow pants that fit me nice. these day there are a lot more companies making boards for large feet. I am somewhat lucky being able to squeeze into a size 13 boot, still huge for the snowboard community (usually wear a 14). it still sucks a little because us tall folk are limited to what we can use. what size foot do you have? how much do you weigh? that will determine what boards you can ride.
