The launch of the iPhone on Verizon adds to the mountain of evidence that you just can't trust wireless carriers.
On the day that iPhone preorders began last week, Verizon quietly revised its policy on data management: Any smartphone customer who uses an "extraordinary amount of data" will see a slowdown in their data-transfer speeds for the remainder of the month and the next billing cycle.
It's a bit of a bait-and-switch. One of Verizon's selling points for its version of the iPhone is that it would come with an unlimited data plan — a marked contrast to AT&T, which eliminated its unlimited data plans last year.
Verizon incidentally announced a plan for "data optimization" for all customers, which may degrade the appearance of videos streamed on smartphones, for example.
Verizon didn't send out press releases to alert the public of this nationwide change regarding data throttling and so-called "optimization." The only reason this news hit the wire was because a blogger noticed a PDF explaining the policy on Verizon's website, which Verizon later confirmed was official. Obviously it's bad news, so Verizon wanted to keep a lid on it.
And here we thought Verizon's network technology was better-prepared than AT&T to handle a big crowd of iPhone customers. While our initial tests showed that Verizon was better at making and holding phone calls, its data speeds are slower than AT&T's. The company must be worried about the effects of an influx of iPhone customers — otherwise, why would it throttle bandwidth like this?
"We've been working on this for a very long time," John Stratton, Verizon's CEO, said during the Verizon iPhone press conference last month. "We expect unprecedented demand, bigger than anything we've ever seen before. We feel good about being able to handle it."
Working on what for a very long time? A plan to handle a flood of new data-heavy customers by slowing everybody down? Brilliant.
The throttling policy will impact only a small number of users: Verizon claims only the top 5 percent of data hogs will be throttled. (AT&T also previously claimed that a small number of users were hogging a massive amount of network bandwidth before it dropped unlimited data.) But the "optimization" method involves caching less data and resizing video, which "may minimally impact the appearance of the file as displayed on your device" — and that affects every Verizon customer.
That's an abuse of the word "unlimited," which is becoming a common practice in the broadband arena. Comcast used to promote unlimited data as well, but customers reported their service was cut off after exceeding an invisible limit; the broadband provider later switched to monthly data caps.
Actions such as data throttling are symptomatic of an ugly truth about the broadband industry. Internet providers would much rather slow everybody down than invest in more hardware to support more customers.
"ISPs have a vested interest in trying to extract as much money as they can and changing the net's architecture to bring them more profits," Wired.com's net neutrality expert Ryan Singel recently wrote. "They would rather do that than add more infrastructure to handle the growing traffic."
Meanwhile, Verizon is advertising an unlimited data plan for the iPhone — which appears to give it a leg up against AT&T, who discontinued unlimited data in 2010 and transitioned to a tiered pricing structure.
But just like AT&T, Verizon plans to switch to tiered pricing in the future, according to Stratton. Verizon's unlimited data plan, available for a limited time, is just another example of bait-and-switch.
AT&T gets most of the heat because independent tests have shown that its network is less reliable than Verizon's with handling phone calls. But at the end of the day, we're dealing with the same evil.
AT&T increased the early-termination fee last June from $175 to $325. Guess what? Verizon, too, doubled its termination fee, to $350.
Verizon used to have a popular "new phone every two years program," in which customers would receive juicy discounts on new phones every two years as a reward for staying loyal. Days after the Verizon iPhone was announced, Verizon discontinued the discount program. Tough beans.
But above all, Verizon's data throttling is shady in areas where even AT&T can't compete. Even when AT&T had unlimited data, the company did not practice throttling, and an independent test showed its unlimited data was truly unlimited.
Transparency is going to be the key issue with data-throttling. How much data is too much? How will Verizon notify customers when they've surpassed the limit? How much will they be slowed down?
If Verizon isn't transparent on each of these issues, the company could quietly slow down anybody's transfer rates just to cram as many iPhone and Android customers on its network as possible, to maximize profit without doing what it should do: invest heavily in network expansion to provide the fast, reliable network it promised to everybody.
Given its actions, Verizon may be better at holding phone calls, but as a broadband company it sucks at keeping promises.

By Mindy Fetterman, USA TODAY
Financial planners, estate planners and other experts often quote this statistic: 70% of all inheritances are frittered away in the first three years. Here are some things to consider if you plan to leave an inheritance or expect to get one:
IF YOU WANT TO GIVE MONEY: (Go to: If you expect to receive money)
Even if you don't have a huge estate, there are ways you can leave money to your family or others that can save you taxes and make a big difference in their lives. Many people give money while they're alive to reduce the size of their estates — and estate taxes.
•You can give some money each year.
Each person can give $12,000 a year to any person — a child, another relative or the milkman — without having to file a gift-tax return with the IRS. If you have several children, you can give $12,000 a year to each. A married couple can "bundle" their gifts to give a combined $24,000 to each child ($12,000 per spouse).
Over your lifetime, $1 million in gifts is excluded from gift taxes. But any amount you give over $12,000 to one person counts toward that $1 million.
Time gifts for impact: For instance, a married couple could give a child $24,000 in December and $24,000 in January, says Michael Yoshikami, president of YCMNET Advisors in Walnut Creek, Calif. "That's a good chunk of a down payment for a house," he says.
•You can bequeath money after death.
Each person also has a one-time exclusion of $2 million from estate taxes after they die (the $1 million above is part of this). Combined, a married couple has $4 million that's excluded from estate taxes. If you want your heirs to be able to take advantage of the growth in assets you give them — and you're not sure they'd invest it wisely themselves — you can set up a trust to hold onto the money for any period of time.
If you leave $1 million using a will, the money would be paid soon after your death. By contrast, if you left it in a trust, it could grow to $2 million over time, doubling the amount your child could inherit without triggering estate taxes.
The $2 million exclusion is "a use-it-or-lose-it provision," says Richard Stone, CEO of Salient Wealth, a wealth management firm in San Rafael, Calif.
•You can pay for education.
If you want to pay education costs for your children, grandchildren or anyone else, you can fund a 529 plan or prepaid college fund. Money in such funds grows tax-free over time, and the proceeds are free of taxes — as long as the money is used to pay for education expenses.
You can make the maximum $12,000 per-person, per-year gift to a 529 plan, or "front load" your gifts by putting five years' of donations in at once.
"You can't make another gift for five years, but it means Grandpa and Grandma can give $120,000 upfront," Stone says. That money also comes right out of their estate, so no estate taxes are owed on it after they die. The student gets the gift tax-free.
You can pay for education or medical expenses outright as long as you write a check directly to the college or medical institution.
Don't give it first to the student or her parents. The check has to go to the school.
•You can set up a trust.
A trust is a way to bequeath money to your heirs beyond using a will. Families with as little as $300,000 to leave should consider a trust for their estate, Yoshikami suggests. That's enough money to make it worthwhile to pay the fees to set it up. Once life insurance, retirement savings and the rising value of real estate are combined, he says, many people have estates worth that much.
One advantage to a trust: It doesn't have to pass through probate court, as a will does. The amount and details of the trust don't become public, says Stone of Salient Wealth. And money or property in a trust stays with the intended person. It can't, for example, be mingled with other assets and divided in a divorce.
"A lot of families use them to protect money against creditors or a bad marriage," Stone says.
A trust isn't always for everything in your estate. Leaving an IRA in a trust, Yoshikami says, doesn't give the same tax advantages that leaving it to an individual does. "If you leave an IRA to an individual, they can choose to take the payout over years and earn more over time," he says.
There are many kinds of trusts, and tax implications, to consider. You should have a trust attorney or financial adviser help you decide which is best for you.
•You can open a private foundation.
"There's just something about the sound of 'The Eric L. Green Foundation,' " laughs Eric L. Green, an estate attorney at Convicer & Percy of Glastonbury, Conn.
Green says some families with as little as $500,000 extra — after retirement, college and lifestyle needs are met — set up a foundation to support a charity.
You can pay your child a salary to run the foundation, he says, or pay him to serve on the board. A foundation has to disperse only 5% of its assets each year.
"I've helped people set up foundations to advance poetry reading and to spread medical information in Africa," Green says. It will cost you about $2,500 to $5,000 to set up a small foundation; up to $50,000 for larger ones, he says.
"Wealthy families think it's good for their kids to have to work with a charity," he says. "They think it's better than throwing fancy cars and money at them."
IF YOU EXPECT TO RECEIVE MONEY (Go to: If you want to give money)
Try not to blow it right away.
"Most people act like they've just won the lottery," says Michael Yoshikami, a wealth manager in Walnut Creek, Calif. "They buy a boat or a motorcycle or put an addition onto the house. They just add to their financial obligations."
Not everyone who inherits money, or who gets money regularly from living relatives, is rich. Most are, but not everyone. And not every inheritance is large.
A typical scenario for a typical American who receives an inheritance might go something like this:
An elderly mother dies, her husband having died earlier. She leaves her son and daughter the family home, which has been paid for, and a Roth IRA worth about $100,000. She and her husband bought the house in 1960 for $50,000. Now, it's worth $300,000.
All of a sudden, her two boomer-aged kids have an "estate" worth nearly half a million dollars. What should they do to derive the most benefit from the money and avoid being hit with a big tax bill?
"It can be nerve-racking," says Greg Fernandez, a financial planner at Nations Capital Wealth Management in McLean, Va.
•When you get Mother's house
The best thing about inheriting a house is that you get a "step up" in the value of the house for tax purposes when you sell it.
"The tax basis completely starts on the date of death," Yoshikami says. In our example, if your mother gives you a house she bought for $50,000, you get to "step up" to its current value of $300,000. So if you sell it for $300,000, you wouldn't pay any taxes. It doesn't matter that the home originally was worth $50,000.
Still, selling the family home can be an "emotional moment," Yoshikami says. Some families just can't do it. They let a member of the family move in.
"You need to stand back and make a rational decision," he says. "But if you do make an emotional one, at least understand the financial consequences."
If you let a relative remain in the house, you should have him or her buy your share, Yoshikami says. Get an appraisal and split the value of the house as if it were being sold immediately. Your sibling would pay you for your half.
The best thing in most cases, Fernandez says, is to sell the house and divide the money among siblings. If you wait to sell, and the value of the home falls after your mother's death, just as many home values are dropping now, you would have a loss.
•What to do with a Roth IRA?
Inheriting an IRA can serve you well, as long as you make a couple of decisions by certain deadlines, Fernandez says. The rules are slightly different when inheriting a traditional IRA or a Roth IRA. Our example is for a Roth, from which money distributed is tax-free.
But for that to happen, the Roth IRA must have been in existence for at least five years. If it was a traditional IRA that was converted to a Roth IRA, the conversion must have occurred at least five years ago.
Beneficiaries who aren't the spouse of the deceased can take distributions two ways: over a lifetime or within five years.
The IRS assumes that you'll take distributions over your lifetime, but the first payment must come out of the account before Dec. 31 of the year after your mother's death, Fernandez says. If it doesn't, you'll default to the five-year payout plan.
That may be OK for you. You can choose how much to get in each of the five years — $50,000 one year, zero the next, $20,000 the third, etc. But you'll lose the ability to keep that money in an account that grows tax-deferred over time.
Remember: You can't roll over an inherited Roth IRA into your IRA. It must remain separate.
To take advantage of growth over time, you should choose to withdraw money over your estimated lifetime. (You'll use the IRS' life-expectancy tables to figure that out.) You'll get smaller annual amounts from the Roth IRA each year than if you took the five-year payout, but a much greater amount over your lifetime.
"We call that a stretch IRA, because you're stretching the payments out over your life," Fernandez says.
For a $100,000 Roth IRA that grows in value at 8% a year given out over nearly 20 years, a 43-year-old beneficiary could potentially withdraw more than $795,000 over his lifetime, Fernandez says. (That assumes he dies at 83.)
And he'd still have $61,000 left to give to his heirs.

Who cares?; I'm here, eating great tasting sweet cream filled pancakes before I head out on this nice fall day! Breakfast $12.48 with tip.

The third quarter provided examples of the growing economic power of global challengers from emerging markets.
Deal volumes decreased in the third quarter and the long-term moving average also declined, but activity in Asia Pacific continued to grow.
While large strategic transactions are less dependent on the economic cycle, we expect continued economic uncertainty is likely to weigh on the overall pace of deal activity.
Highlights from this quarter include:
Global Consumer products corporate and private equity (PE) transactions scorecard by sector
The third quarter provided examples of the growing economic power of global challengers from emerging markets, which are looking to strengthen their positions both in their domestic markets and through overseas expansion.
The theme has several elements illustrated in the quarter's largest deals:
Looking ahead to the end of the year, we expect that the level of deal activity in the fourth quarter of the year will moderate further.
However, we do not expect that deal activity will fall back close to the level reached in 2009.
Many consumer products companies have regained the capability to do deals. As well as being financially stronger, by operating in the uncertain economic conditions of the last three years, management teams and shareholders have also become more comfortable doing business with a higher degree of volatility in the business environment.
Companies which are struggling and lack the capital to compete, will become the targets of opportunistic M&A.

The Women on the Island
€ 18,49

Februar 2001
BeschreibungDeep in the forested Vietnamese island of Cat Bac, a jungle seethes with the force of its own history. Haunted by agonies of temptation and frustration, "the women on the island" are prisoners of the power of place, the power of the past, the power of desire and constraint. Yet like the jungle of jackfruit trees and bamboo itself, desire is a force that cannot be subdued.This novel illuminates the plight of a generation of men and women in post-war Vietnam. It explores issues of family and gender, and charts Vietnam's effort to redefine its relationship to its past and future. The author brings into view the struggle of women who survived their service during the war years. Like male veterans in America and Vietnam, they returned to a society which they had defended, but which in many ways had no place for them. By confronting these issues, Ho Anh Thai has contributed to the debate in Vietnam over the rights of unmarried women with children. Through the lens of this particular time and place, The Women on the Island probes the time-less question of how we find ways to live in harmony with the tangled and contradictory compulsions of our own soul souls.

text: So recently after doing some repairs on my truck (replacing belt tensioner pulley) the squeaking and screeching from under the hood pretty much stopped. It happened on and of for very short time last week after it was fixed, but then this week its back full force but still only randomly. The new issue is that when ever it squeaks the volt gauge goes from the normal 14 down to less than 13. It rarely squeaks but its a pain in the butt and as loud as it was before the fix if I steer at low speed during. It seems the new pulley is hurting more than the old and now my alternator is facing the consequences. I was going to replace the idler, but now I wont until I get in the AC Delco part because I don't trust another one of Autozone's rebadged Dayco pulleys. This is the first time I've had a problem with Autozone's house brand every other one of their products I have bought have worked very well. I'm not sure what to do right now. Currently I'm working on ordering a new AC Delco full tensioner unit and idler as well as a Goodyear Gatorback belt and new 140 amp AC Delco external fan alternator. (the one under the hood was a temp anyway only has a 1yr warranty) Link to what I did and pics: http://www.gmtruckclub.com/forum/showthread.php/96804-Minor-Problems#axzz26U420CXc

In American society, men and women have unspoken gender roles that are expected of them when dating. Movies and TV shows only reinforce these ideas.
But what if we looked at the flip side? What if women were the sexual hunters, and men were the nesters? It might look something like this video that has been viewed over 200,000 times this week, and is shared on MPViral.

We had a really nice weekend in Wroclaw. The apartment was nice and as shown in the pictures. It had everything we needed and Jadwiga and Wojciech prepared everything nicely. There was no problem with the keys. Wec cwould certainly recommend the apartment to others.
Der Aufenthalt war sehr gelungen ! Gemütliche Wohnung , nah der Altstadt , ruhig,alles gut zu erreichen !
L'appartamento è molto bello e rispecchia le foto pubblicate.
Si trova in una buona posizione dalla quale si può raggiungere comodamente il centro a piedi.
Das Apartment war super sauber und alles vorhanden was benötigt wird. Es ist super gelegen um alles mit dem Bus oder der Straßenbahn zu erreichen. Um die Ecke gibt es einen kleinen Supermarkt und Bäcker. Das Gebäude ist durch einen Sicherheitsdienst bewacht der 24 Stunden vor Ort ist. Alles was man benötigt ist vorhanden (tolle Küche, Waschmaschine, Balkon, …). Das Apartment ist wärmsten zu empfehlen. Wenn wir nochmal nach Breslau fahren, dann würden wir es sofort wieder buchen. Nochmal ein großer Danke an Jadwiga, weiter so.
Znakomity, rzeczywiście luksusowy apartament w bardzo dobrej lokalizacji. Miła obsługa, duży komfort, czystość, praktyczne rozwiązania. Wygodne podwójne łóżko, sofa, 2 telewizory, bez zarzutu wi-fi. Godny polecenia dla wszystkich!
Es war wunderbar in Breslau.Unsere Unterkunft können wir auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen.Wohnung war top sauber und gemütlich eingerichtet. Schlüsselübergabe erfolgte auch problemlos. Alles war top.Wir werden auf jeden Fall nochmal mit Wimdu verreisen.
Ich war sehr zufrieden mit meinem Aufenthalt in diesem Apartment.
Besonders hat mir gefallen, dass irgendwie an alles gedacht war.
Zur Waschmaschine gab es ein Waschmittel, zum Geschirrspüler die zugehörigen Tabs. Als Anregung wäre vielleicht zu erwähnen, dass ins Wohnzimmer (eine zweite Schlafmöglichkeit) sehr stark die Laterne vor dem Haus hineinscheint. Dort wären Rollos zum verdunkeln angebracht. Sonst war alles okay, die Kommunikation
ging reibungslos .
Gerne wieder.

Sonic and the Secret Rings
Sonic and the Secret Rings
Sega, G, RRP $100
The mighty hedgehog once rivalled Mario in the popularity stakes, but these days he's more like an overweight, washed-up pop idol plying his pitiful wares at local RSL clubs in front of nostalgic housewives.
Secret Rings is not the game that restores Sonic's fading fortunes but at least Sega fans can take solace that it is a big step in the right direction. It focuses on the key strength of the blue dude with 'tood - his blistering speed.
Players hold the Wii-mote sideways like a handlebar, steering Sonic through the courses by tilting the controller side-to-side. The system feels immediately intuitive but often lacks the precision necessary to avoid obstacles when travelling at lightning speed. Too often, progress is down to trial and error.
The game starts poorly, with a baffling Arabian Nights story and bland tutorial missions. But the further players progress through the seven worlds, the more fun they will have.
Mission objectives include collecting rings, finishing within a strict time limit, and not breaking certain objects as you tear around. Trying to improve your rankings is addictive and helps make up for the paucity of levels.
Experience points gained let you upgrade Sonic's skills and being able to tailor his abilities according to each level's challenge is a welcome feature. In addition to running, our hero can perform huge leaps and whack baddies while in mid-air. Spectacular loops and corkscrews bring back fond memories of Sonic's halcyon days.
A few dozen mediocre party games let up to four friends compete in unimaginative tasks such as paddling boats or shooting balloons but add little depth to the package.

Philippines may ban off-key national anthem singing
- By Joshua Keating
Joshua Keating was an associate editor at Foreign Policy
The Philippine Congress voted unanimously yesterday in favor of a law that forbids deviating from the tune of the country's national anthem or displaying the flag in an unpatriotic manner:
The proposal has been put forward as the MPs felt that Filipino artists had been changing the anthem's military march melody and beat, and the flag was being made into clothing articles. The change in the anthem's tune was noted when it was sung at the boxing matches of Manny Pacquiao, the seven-time Filipino world champion.
If this new law is passed, Filipino singers deviating from the anthem tune could be handed a jail sentence as well as a $2,000 fine.
As a newly elected congressman, Pacquiao presumably voted for the measure himself.
Here's what a traditional rendition of the Philippine national anthem sounds like if you're curious. Not a bad one, though I'm sure Marvin Gaye could have taken it to another level.

We've been going here for almost 9 years now and love Dr. Baum. There are a number of other vets that practice there too and our experience with them has always been good. At times it can be very busy and you can have a long wait but we feel it's worth it.posted: February 23rd, 2007

Ghosts of Girona
... culminating with the 1492 expulsion of the Jews from Spain by those godly monarchs, Ferdinand and Isabella!
We walked the narrow cobblestone lanes, hemmed in by formidable ramparts. Human spirit was confined quite literally. We had intended to go out in the evening for tapas but the weight of travel and history (and our good lunch) depleted our resolve and we faded out early in Girona!
Last Day in Lloret
... we'll never be back as I'd like to check out Barcelona, and Portugal not far away either. So here's a surprise - mummachimp is not as homesick as usual! This iMessage is the key I think! Early night tonight, packing all my Spanish goodies as hand luggage - out early, bus up to Barcelona, then flight to Munich then train up to Regensburg - a 12th century medieval village on the Danube River, this will be our last stay. Check ya from Regensberg ...
Tossa de Mar - simply wonderful!
... entrecote and BBQ Sole both served with BBQ vegetables and while we were waiting we were presented with a chilled glass of bubbly- nice touch!! There are many people here who speak some English and apparently a lot of the hotels, restaurants and shops close down in winter or reduce there trading to the weekend, but they are so busy the rest of the year that they don't mind the break. The main beach here is swept ...

Well everyday commences w champagne breakfast and why not I say!! Very Lazy days, nice weather, nice walks on the boardwalk, reading, not much movement from sun lounge, the water is a bit chilly. Nice dinners at local restaurants, Local Casino picks u up and drops u back at your hotel! ...

Yep this is a great place, champagne included with your breakfast, immaculate Spanish waiters at your beck & call and this amazing view over the Mediterranean. Its hard to move but we'll see what's on the streets, usual markety things, ...

Everyone heals from his or her surgery at a different pace. In most cases, however, you will be restricted to using a walker or crutches for one month after your operation. You will then be allowed to advance to a cane outdoors and no support around the house for several weeks. You will gradually return to normal function without any assistive devices. You will use an assistive device until you can walk without a limp. This usually takes about three months but can take longer.
Approximately 10 to 14 days postoperatively. This may be done by a visiting nurse (if you are at home) or rehabilitation staff (if you are at a rehab facility). Some surgeons use stitches that dissolve and do not need to be removed. Your surgeon and nurse will instruct you in this. If your surgeon used nonabsorbable sutures, they are usually removed by a visiting nurse, at your surgeon's office or by a local physician 10 to 14 days after surgery.
Approximately one week or until there is no drainage from the incision. This should be changed daily to a new, dry sterile gauze. If desired, you may continue to wear a bandage to protect the incision from irritation (clothing, compression stockings, etc.).
If your physician orders a knee immobilizer, it should be worn when sleeping and walking, until you are able to independently perform a straight leg raise. Most patients only use this for about one week postoperatively. However, if you wish to wear it for comfort, you may also use it at night for several weeks.
Five days after your operation, if no drainage is present at the incision. (Initially, try to keep the incision dry with plastic wrap.) If it gets wet, pat it dry.
Typically, you should not swim or get in a hot tub for six weeks. However, some surgeons allow their patients to do so after two weeks if there is no drainage. Check with your surgeon.
You will likely require some form of pain medication for about three months. Initially, you will be on a strong oral pain medication (such as a narcotic). Most people are able to wean off their strong pain medication after one month and are able to switch to an over-the-counter pain medication (such as Tylenol or ibuprofen). If you are on Coumadin (warfarin), avoid taking any NSAIDs (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen, Anvil, Motrin, Aleve, Naprosyn) without first consulting with your internist.
It depends. Most people are able to go home after their operation. However, you may go to a rehabilitation facility in order to gain the skills you need to return home safely. Many factors will be considered in this decision. These include availability of family or friends to assist with daily activities, home environment, safety considerations, postoperative functional status as evaluated by a physical therapist in the hospital and overall evaluation by our hospital team.
Yes! The physical therapist plays a very important role in recovery. You will see a physical therapist soon after your operation and throughout your stay at the hospital. If you go home, you will likely have a therapist come to visit you (usually two to three times a week). Sometimes you will be referred to an outpatient physical therapist. If you go to a rehabilitation facility, you will receive therapy there. Your therapist will keep your surgeon informed of your progress.
If you have been given a CPM, you will use it about six hours per day. This may be divided any way you wish. For example, you can use it three times a day for two hours. The setting for flexion (bending the knee) can be increased daily as tolerated. Your surgeon and therapist will inform you how to set the machine upon your discharge from the hospital.
You will be instructed by your physical therapist on appropriate exercises and given a list to follow. In general, swimming and stationary bicycles are good exercise options. These should be continued indefinitely even after your recovery is complete. Do not begin using a stationary bike or swimming until four weeks after your surgery or until you have been seen by your surgeon.
You should spend some time each day working on strengthening your knee (extension) as well as bending your knee (flexion). A good way to work on extension is to place a towel roll underneath your ankle when you're lying down. A good way to work on flexion is to sit on a chair or stationary bicycle and bend your knee. Avoid using a pillow or a towel roll behind the knee for any length of time.
Generally not for the first two months. However, as everyone's strength varies, consult with your physical therapist before using weights. Use light weights to begin with and gradually progress from 1 pound to a minimum of 5 pounds.
Typically, you will be on Coumadin (warfarin) as a blood thinner. This medication is used to help prevent blood clots. Some surgeons may order a dose of Coumadin the night before surgery and continue you on Coumadin while in the hospital. You might stay on Coumadin for four to six weeks or switch over to aspirin. This will be decided prior to your discharge from the hospital. If you are on aspirin, you will be on this for 12 weeks. You may want to consider talking to your internist about the benefits of continuing aspirin after 12 weeks.
Four weeks is usually sufficient. These supplements help your body replenish its iron stores, which may be depleted postoperatively.
It is very common to have constipation postoperatively. This may be due to a variety of factors, but is especially common when taking narcotic pain medication. A simple over-the-counter stool softener (such as Colace) is the best prevention for this problem. In rare instances, you may require a suppository or enema.
If you had surgery on your right knee, you should not drive for at least one month. After one month, you may return to driving as soon as you feel comfortable. If you had surgery on your left knee, you may return to driving as soon as you feel comfortable as long as you have an automatic transmission. DO NOT DRIVE IF TAKING NARCOTICS! Some surgeons do not allow their patients to drive until they have seen them back in their office four to six weeks after surgery. Check with your surgeon.
This depends on your profession. Typically, if your work is primarily sedentary, you may return after approximately one month. If your work is more rigorous, you may require up to three months before you can return to full duty. In some cases, more time may be necessary.
You may travel as soon as you feel comfortable. It is recommended that you get up to stretch or walk at least once an hour when taking long trips. This is important to help prevent blood clots.
You may set off the machines at airport security depending on the type of knee implant you have and the sensitivity of the security checkpoint equipment. At your follow up visit, you may ask to have a wallet card to carry with you for travel.
You may return to most activities as tolerated, including walking, gardening, golf and doubles tennis. Some of the best activities to help with motion and strengthening are swimming and a stationary bicycle.
You should avoid impact activities such as running, downhill skiing on expert slopes and vigorous racquet sports, such as singles tennis or squash. Some surgeons allow more vigorous activities. Check with your surgeon.
Yes, as soon as you feel comfortable.
If you are on Coumadin, avoid alcohol intake. Otherwise, use in moderation at your own discretion. You should avoid taking narcotics or other medications.
These should be used for the first several days, particularly if you have a lot of swelling or discomfort. Some surgeons allow the use of heat. Once the initial swelling has decreased, you may use ice or heat. Check with your surgeon.
Initially during your recovery period, leading up with the good (non operated) leg and down with the bad (operative side) is the preferred method for negotiating steps. After a few months, alternating steps will help strengthen both sides.
After about two months, you may try to kneel. Although this may be uncomfortable initially, you will not injure your knee replacement by kneeling. Most people find the more you kneel, the easier it gets. You may find it more comfortable to use a kneeling pad.
Ice should be used for the first several days, particularly if you have a lot of swelling or discomfort. Some surgeons allow the use of heat once the initial swelling has decreased. Check with your surgeon.
Everyone's range of motion varies and depends on individual factors. Your potential will be determined at the time of your surgery. In most cases, you will have at least 90 degrees of flexion and full extension by six weeks. At one year, you may have up to 125 degrees of flexion, but 105 to 110 degrees is usually satisfactory.
Most people require 70 degrees of flexion (bending the knee) to walk on level ground, 90 degrees to ascend stairs, 100 degrees to descend stairs and 105 degrees to get out of a low chair. You should also come to within 10 degrees of being fully straight to function well.
For the large majority of cases, your leg length will be essentially unchanged. In rare cases, however, you may notice a change in leg length. This is more common when a severe deformity of the knee exists before surgery. At first, this may feel awkward. However, you will gradually become accustomed to your new knee and length. Occasionally, a shoe may be prescribed for you.
Yes. You will be given a letter explaining this in detail at your first follow-up visit. Avoid any dental cleaning or non urgent procedures for six weeks postoperatively.
It is not uncommon to have feelings of depression after your knee replacement. This may be due to a variety of factors, such as limited mobility, discomfort, increased dependency on others and medication side effects. Feelings of depression will typically fade as you begin to return to your regular activities. If your feelings of depression persist, consult your internist.
This is a very common complaint following knee replacement surgery. Nonprescription remedies such as Benadryl or melatonin may be effective. If this continues to be a problem, medication may be prescribed to you.
This varies from patient to patient. For each year following your knee replacement, you have a 1 percent chance of requiring additional surgery. For example, at 10 years postoperatively, there is a 90 percent success rate.
Follow-up appointments should be made postoperatively at four to six weeks, one year, two years, five years, seven years and 10 years.

What code covers installation of wall heaters?
Does anyone know what code covers the installation of gas wall heaters in Southern California? More specifically, Orange County?
I am aware that installation of water heaters is covered in the California Plumbing Code. Does that cover gas wall heaters as well?
For Electrical, NEC, for Fire, it would be California Code, and the mandates would be covered under NFPA.
So you are saying that if the city of Huntington Beach comes out to inspect some electrical work, you have to go strictly by the National Electric Code? Not some code from the state or county?
Or more to the point, to pass inspection installation of a wall furnace must pass regulations from all 3 codes?
Hopefully a pro from California will chime in. I'd be cautious about saying that the NEC or International Fuel Gas Code will apply...California is notorious for their codes, and they tend to either amend and add to them, or write their own codes. You need to contact the local jurisdiction to know for sure.
Agreeing here with KC. Your state has the CEC not the NEC, they have several amendments and requirements not found in th NEC. Especially environmental requirements. However I doubt the CEC has much to do with a gas heater installation other than a receptacle possibly. Plumbing codes should be where you need to look.
I will strongly recomend that you get a ahold of your local inspector in your area due the state of California do have a bit of local addmendments to the regulations.
Unforetally I did not save one of the Californina regulations it was pretty long winded and some case you will say >> :eek:

It is interesting that -outreg- continues to be the #1 downloaded program, even though it hasn't been updated in years and is apparently no longer supported by the author. Since you are a newbie, I suggest you get off on the right track and try -estout- instead. Most people think it is at least as good or better as -outreg- and the author continues to support and update it. I don't know about this particular issue, but my guess is that any problems in -estout- are much more likely to eventually get fixed than any problems that exist in -outreg-.

Oracle Corp.
(Nasdaq: ORCL)
500 Oracle Parkway
Redwood City, CA 94065
ANN ARBOR, Mich. (March 13, 1997) -- After the market closed today, Oracle announced results for its fiscal third quarter, which ended February 28. Revenues increased 35% to $1.37 billion from $1.02 billion in the same period last year. Net income for the period increased 32% to $193 million, or $0.29 per share (excluding a one-time charge of $37 million related to the acquisition of Datalogix), compared to net income of $146 million, or $0.22 per share, in the same period last year.
Oracle reported strong growth in all of its major geographic regions, despite a 4 percentage-point negative currency translation during the third quarter. Quarterly sales increased 39% in local currencies, with Asia Pacific particularly impacted by a weaker yen relative to the dollar. Oracle Americas reported the greatest geographic revenue growth, up 40%, followed by Asia Pacific, up 32%, and EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa), up 28%, versus the same period last year. In local currency, EMEA sales were up 34%.
There has not been any noticeable weakening of sales in Japan. The plan there is for growth in the 50% to 60% range (measured in Yen), and sales are meeting that plan.
In the Americas, the business plan called for some growth in expenses through Q3 but then revenue growth after that.
Growth in Europe was much improved in Q3. France is improving somewhat but is still slow; no one is doing very well there. Spain is also slow. Business in the UK, Italy, and parts of Scandinavia is quite good. Oracle now has new management in place in virtually every European market area. In Germany, the current managing director has announced his retirement but will stay on until that position can be filled. Belgium is the only top leadership slot that is open. Europe had a strong Q4 last year, so they will have a challenge in front of them to match that. On the other hand, Release 10.7 of Oracle applications is now available in Europe, and that should increase customer interest there.
Overall license sales in the third quarter increased 29% year-to-year, led by 61% growth in Applications license revenue. Oracle services (Support, Consulting and Education) grew by 41% as compared to Q3 of fiscal 1996.
Sales of server products was up 32% in the quarter, the same as the year-to-date rate. Tools sales were down 9%. Sales of applications was up 61%. By platform, UNIX sales were up 33%, desktop sales up 39%, and proprietary systems down 18%. Sales of database products for the NT platform are up 201% year-to-date, and Oracle continues to gain market share on that platform. On the NT platform, sales of enterprise [high-end] products contribute twice as much to revenues as sales of lower-end work-group products do. The point is that even on the NT platform, Oracle is finding that customers want the additional features and capabilities of the enterprise product.
The Vertical applications roll-out is going very well, and competitors such as SAP have no real answer to what Oracle can offer. For example, Land O' Lakes, Inc. selected the Oracle CPG (consumer packaged goods) suite, that will enable Land O' Lakes to more closely integrate with suppliers, partners and customers to manufacture and deliver products quickly and efficiently to meet market demand. The CPG suite has shipped to approximately 20 clients already. Phillips Petroleum selected the Oracle Energy suite of integrated business-software applications. Oracle Energy has been shipping for some time now.
The new Banking Vertical will be selling on June 1. The Telecommunications Vertical group is still putting together its plan, but it will eventually be a big, big product -- perhaps second only to Oracles offerings for government.
The strategy is to have four global sales teams for the Vertical suites, each team having specific expertise in a particular business. Those teams will be supported by technical resource teams.
Management does not agree with the concerns of some analysts about the impact of Microsoft's SQL Server product. Oracle has maintained its market share and has not experienced pricing pressure, except in a few instances where Informix has acted out of desperation.
Oracle is not losing market share to Informix. In no instance has Informix won a large contract away from Oracle with their new product, and there are a number of instances in which Oracle has won contracts on which Informix has competed. According to Oracle, there are no large customers running Informix's Universal Server product.
According to management, Oracle8 will be a very powerful offering. There are approximately 170 customers beta-testing Oracle8 now, and the product is scheduled to ship in June. The company will be providing weekly bulletins to customers describing the product's advantages. Oracle8 will meet market needs. It has object-relational capabilities that can handle encapsulated data as objects as well as "pure" objects. Oracle8 can also manage very-large data arrays. You will see an evolving object-relational technology with versions 8.1 and 8.2. So far, 53% of beta customers are exploiting the very-large data capabilities of Oracle8, as compared with 47% who are exploiting the object-relational technology.
Moreover, Oracle has many other strong new offerings -- Vertical suites and Web Forms, for example -- that are generating strong interest with customers. The Oracle Web Forms tools, which will run on corporate intranets using a Web browser, promise to be very popular and should contribute to Q4. There is also strong interest in the "thin client" model, with its lower cost of ownership. This will be a major differentiator in the marketplace for Oracle -- the ability to deploy on thin clients.
Oracle has had every application sales person come to the U.S. recently for training on the new applications products so that they will know how to sell all of them effectively. The company is training the database people on new products, as well.
The applications business is meeting management's expectations. The second and third quarters have shown "pretty normalized" growth. As the "thin client" takes off, business will be even better. Peoplesoft, for example, has nothing comparable to offer.
There may be some cannibalization of sales of some of Oracle's other products by the company's newer NT offerings, but mostly what Oracle sees is new customers who move up to NT and as a result become interested in learning about how to build and use a database in their business. Also, many customers who migrate to NT still prefer to run Oracle's enterprise products on that platform, due to the added features of the enterprise products. Altogether, NT accounts for approximately 15% to 16% of total sales -- or about 20% to 25% as large as Unix sales. The multiplatform capability of Oracle is a big advantage, because many customers operate on multiple platforms currently.
Management had previously stated that the company would slow the rate of growth in hiring somewhat to trim internal costs, and that occurred in Q3. Headcount increased 5.5% sequentially, as compared with a company average of 8.5% growth over the previous three quarters. The slower rate of growth in headcount will not affect revenue growth.
There were no end-of-quarter "heroics" that occurred in Q3. Customers do try sometimes to wait until the very end of the quarter in hopes that they can secure a special deal, but Oracle offered no bonuses or discounts or anything like that. Days sales outstanding (DSO) stood at 73 days versus 74 days last year.
Ray Lane, Oracle's President and Chief Operating Officer, addressed rumors that he might be leaving Oracle. He said that he had no such plans and that as long as the Board and Larry treat him as well as they have in the past, he is at Oracle to stay.
The tax rate for the third quarter was 36%, two points higher than the year-ago period. That rate should decline in the coming year, and the company's guidance is to use a tax rate of 35% for FY98. That will help net margin.
Oracle has not seen any slowing down of customers' purchasing decisions in light of the possibility of moving from mainframes to the desktop or the "thin client" infrastructure. That is because by April all of Oracle's applications will run on the thin client as well as on the "heavy" desktop, so customers can have their choice. Also, the pending roll-out of Oracle8 is not affecting sales of Oracle7.3 at all, because the upgrade is very straightforward -- no reason to defer until Oracle8 debuts.
Nor are customers delaying decisions because of "Year 2000" concerns. If anything, that has accelerated Oracle's business because the company already has solutions in place. Of course if some businesses were to shift their purchasing budgets to hire a bunch of COBOL programmers to fix their legacy systems, that could hurt sales; but the major businesses already have their Y2K plans in operation. If anything, the transition to the EMU [European Monetary Unit] could be more of an issue than Y2K.
The fourth quarter is always Oracle's strongest, and Q4 for this fiscal year "feels very good." Management is also "very excited" about FY98.

Sir Edward Elgar's Violin Concerto in B minor is one of the great late Romantic works, for violin or anything else a fascinating synthesis of restraint and emotion in which Elgar the reserved Brit tussles with Elgar the passionate artist. The result is a rich, glorious tapestry of carefully building and soaring feeling that even thrilled the composer. "It's awfully good!" he exulted. "Awfully emotional! Too emotional, but I love it." Elgar wrote the concerto for the legendary Fritz Kreisler, who premiered it in London in 1910. Since then, all the great violinists have adored sinking their teeth into this delicious masterpiece. But the reigning interpreter of the day is the prodigiously talented Danish violinist Nikolaj Znaider, who made history in 2010 when he toured the world in a centennial performance of the concerto on the violin that premiered the work Kreisler's own Guarneri del Gesu. What makes Znaider's approach so compelling is not only his consummate artistry but his ability to blend tradition with a perspective so fresh and daring that one critic termed it just plain "revolutionary." This week, Znaider Plays Elgar once more on the Kreisler Guarneri, with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and guest conductor Vassily Sinaisky. It's the only work on the Casual Fridays program, which also features a post-concert TalkBack discussion with Sinaisky, Znaider and the musicians; the Thursday and Saturday concerts also include Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 4.

Reviews of this property
The accommodation was smaller than it looked in pictures ... in the closet where you had to put your clothes there were brooms and qnt'altro, nn seems very clean cm thing ... and frankly we preferred to leave the clothes in the suitcase. The kitchen was handy for better or worse ... even if the view nn too much cleaning we preferred to buy plates cups and cutlery, cookware, we have disinfected over and over again. Ditto the coffee maker. And then there was always hot water nn cn we had to wash bottles filled with hot water heated in the pot, if QST is so ... oh I forgot final thing ... cleaning the kitchen nn was included in the 20 € paid x cleaning, and x nn at the last minute to make a fuss I cleaned ble dishes. The only good thing is the place ... even if recommended by many in the area QNT hot and peddling nn we were disturbed. The house is located between the metro stations "pigalle, and abesses blanche." Qnd above the right part of the moulen rouge and under montremartre. Also convenient x 'sn many negozidv you can do shopping ... market, poultry, bakery, butcher and qnt'altro.
L'alloggio era più piccolo di quel che sembrava in foto...nell'armadio dove vi si dovevano mettere i vestiti vi erano scope e qnt'altro, nn mi sembra molto pulita cm cosa... e sinceramente abbiamo preferito lasciare i vestiti in valigia. La cucina bene o male è stata comoda...anche se vista la nn troppa pulizia abbiamo preferito comprare piatti bicchieri e posate, le pentole li abbiamo disinfettate più e più volte. Idem la macchinetta del caffè. E poi l'acqua calda nn c'era sempre abbiamo dovuto lavarci cn bottiglie riempite di acqua calda riscaldata in pentola, se qst è modo... ah dimenticavo cosa finale...la pulizia della cucina nn era compresa nei 20 € pagati x la pulizia, ed all'ultimo minuto x nn fare storie ho pulito ble stoviglie. L'unica cosa buona è il posto...anche se da molti sconsigliato in qnt zona hot e di spaccio noi nn siamo stati disturbati. La casa si trova tra le fermate metro di "pigalle, blanche e abesses". Qnd sopra parte destra del moulen rouge e sotto montremartre. Comodo anche x' vi sn tanti negozidv poter fare la spesa...market, polleria, panificio, macelleria e qnt'altro.
not disappoint me at all the apartment. very clean and very new. the block a bit old and lonely, but in a good location near the Blanche station, super markets and restaurants creperies. 2 minutes from moulin rouge.
no me decepciono en absoluto el apartamento. muy limpio y muy nuevo. el bloque un poco antiguo y solitario, pero en buena situacion cerca de la estacion de Blanche, super mercados, creperies y restaurantes. a 2 minutos del moulin rouge.
I am satisfied. The location is great, near metro. There are bakeries and supermarkets within 3 mins walk. The apartment is of good size for two people. Unfortunately Sue should pay attention on equipment and clean more often her apartment. She should buy more cups, plates and glasses for guests. In my opinion the bed was very uncomfortable. Apartment for renovation.
Reviews for this host's other properties
We really liked the apartment. It is located in a rather quiet street and since it was about 29 degrees outside, the apartment was cool. But, when we arrived at home, we have bites from bedbugs and we can not recommend to rent this apartment until they have fixed the problem, which we can read about in other rewiews.
The luminaires in the bathroom and the little bedroom where not ok. The refrigerator was very small and the kitchen was not in the dimension of cooking food.
Sue behaved very well. She was in contact with us all the time until we got to Paris, by email, she was very flexible with the check-in and check-out time and besides that she transferred us to a better and larger apartment, also in Montmartre, because the Studio in Place du Tertre, Sacré-Coeur that we had hired had been a serious water leak some days before and the repair work was not done for our arrival.
Claude was very kind and nice and there was no problem with our schedule for check-in and check-out time (11:00 p.m. and 05:00 a.m.) Besides he gave us a lot of information about Montmartre, the coolest neighborhood in Paris.
We had a really nice stay. The host are really sweet and helpful. The apartment were perfect for our family.
It's a very nice apartment and the area around is great! We have a lovely stay in Paris and Sue and her team are very nice and helpful!
Perfect !! the host was very helpfull and the appartement couldn´t be in a better place.
This year we are married for 40 years. We want to celebrate this with my childeren.
We looked for months for an appartment with 3 bedrooms and enough space for the 6 of us. Unfortunately we didn't get the appartment we have booked because there was a water damage.
I understand that those things can happen.
That's why we are placed in this appartment on rue the gabrielle.
It is a 2 bedroom appartment. The host said there are beds for 8 people. I don't agree. An adult can not sleep on the beda upstairs. The matrasses are very very thin. And you lie down on a wooden plank.
The sofabed is very very bad. You lie down in a hole and there are stains everywhere. You even can't sit normal on it without getting a pain in the back. The blankets smelss like wet dog and the appartment was not very clean.
Unfortunately the host (Claude/Kloot) was talks very agressive. He was not thinking in solutions. The only thing he said was look at the view.
You must know that in the night my eyes are closed and I really don't care about the view. The only thing I care the is the quallity of my bed.
He also said a couple time that when we don't like it we must pack our bags and go to a hotel.
It was not very nice.
When we asked for another bed we get an air matress that was broken. The host said nothing about a payback for this dissapointing stay.
The possitve thing about this appartment is the view. It's really nice. Maybe for 4 people this appartment is good but certainly not for 8 people.
Great starting point. I would heartily recommend. Perfect conditions for a good price.
