Magic Johnson is one of my favorite players of all time.
Despite being 6 foot 9 inches tall, he was one of the best point-guards that ever lived.
He won 5 championship rings with the LA Lakers, and he a very successful entrepreneur and motivational speaker as well.
He is also one of the few players to win championships at all levels (high school, college, and NBA).
Here are some of his most famous quotes:
- "They said playing basketball would kill me. Well, not playing basketball was killing me."
- "I never think that there's something I can't do, whether it's beating my opponent one on one or practicing another hour because something about my game is just not right."
- "Everybody on a championship team doesn't get publicity, but everyone can say he's a champion."
- "You don't have to be Magic to be special. You're already special, you're you."
- "When you face a crisis, you know who your true friends are."
- "You're the only one who can make the difference. Whatever your dream is, go for it."
- "Young people want you to be real with them."
- "Magic is who I am on the basketball court. Earvin is who I am."
- "If you're a competitive person, that stays with you. You don't stop. You always look over your shoulder."
- "Ask not what your teammates can do for you. Ask what you can do for your teammates."

CAC ON YOUR Mac INSTALL CHECKLIST PAGE
6 "high level" steps needed, follow down the page to make this a painless systematic process
Step 1: Is your CAC reader Mac friendly?
Visit the USB Readers page to verify the CAC reader you have is Mac friendly.
"Some, not all" CAC readers may need to have a driver installed to make it work.
NOTE: Readers such as: SCR-331, GSR-202, GSR-202V, & GSR-203 could need firmware updates (NO OTHER Readers need firmware updates).
Information about these readers are in Step 2
Step 2: Can your Mac "see" the reader?
Plug the CAC reader into an open USB port before proceeding, give it a few moments to install
Step 2a: Click the Apple Icon in the upper left corner of the desktop, select "About This Mac"
Step 2b: Click the "More Info" (button) (Mac OS 10.6.x and older), Mac OS 10.7.x and newer go to step 2c
Step 2c: Click "System Report..." (button) (Only shown in 10.7.x and newer)
Step 2d: Verify the CAC reader shows in Hardware, USB, under USB Device Tree. Different readers will show differently, most readers have no problem in this step. See Step 2d1 for specific reader issues.
Step 2d1: Verify firmware version on your SCR-331 or GSR-202, 202V, 203 CAC, or SCR-3500a reader. If you have a reader other than these 5, GO TO STEP 3
Step 2d1a-SCR-331 reader
If your reader does not look this this, go to the next step.
Below "Hardware" click "USB." On the right side of the screen under "USB Device Tree" the window will display all hardware plugged into the USB ports on your Mac. Look for "SCRx31 USB Smart Card Reader." If the Smart Card reader is present, look at "Version" in the lower right corner of this box: If you have a number below 5.18, you need to update your firmware to 5.25. If you are already at 5.18 or 5.25, your reader is installed on your system, and no further hardware changes are required. You can now Quit System Profiler and continue to Step 3.
Step 2d1b-IOGear GSR-202, 202V, and 203 readers
If your reader does not look like these, go to Step 3.
Below "Hardware" click "USB." On the right side of the screen under "USB Device Tree" the window will display all hardware plugged into the USB ports on your Mac. You should see "EMV Smartcard Reader." If the Smart Card Reader is present look for "Product ID" in the lower right corner of this box: If you see: 0x9540, you need to downgrade the firmware to 0x9520. If you see 0x9520, your reader is installed on your system, and no further hardware changes are required. You can now Quit System Profiler and continue to Step 3.
Step 2d1c-SCR-3500A reader
If you have the SCR3500A P/N:905430-1 CAC reader, you may need to install this driver, as the one that installs automatically will not work. Hold the control key [on your keyboard] when clicking the .pkg file [with your mouse], select [the word] Open
Step 3: Verify which version of MacOS do you have?
(You need to know this information for step 6)
Step 3a: Click the Apple Icon in the upper left corner of your desktop and select "About This Mac"
Step 3b: Look below Mac OS X for: Version 10.X.X.
Step 4: Figure out which CAC (ID Card) you have
(You need to know this information for step 6)
Look at the back of your ID card (above the black strip) for these card types. If you have any version other than the five shown below, you need to visit an ID card office and have it replaced. All CACs [other than these five] were supposed to be replaced prior to 1 October 2012.
A guide to help figure out which CAC you have
Find out how to flip card over video
Step 5: Update your DoD certificates (for Safari and Chrome Users)
Firefox users also follow guidance in 5a below:
Go to Keychain Access
Click: Go (top of screen), Utilities, double click Keychain Access.app
(You can also type: keychain access using Spotlight (this is my preferred method))
Select login (under Keychains), and All Items (under Category).
Download these 4 files (you might need to <ctrl> click, select Download Linked File As...) Save to your downloads folder
http://militarycac.com/maccerts/DoDRoot3.cer, and
Double click each of the files to install certificates into the login section of keychain
The certificates that will be installed are:
DOD CA-27 through DOD CA-32,
DOD EMAIL CA-27 through DOD EMAIL CA-34,
DOD EMAIL CA-39 through DOD EMAIL CA-44,
DOD ID CA-33 through DOD ID CA-34,
DOD ID CA-39 through DOD ID CA-44,
DOD ID SW CA-35 through DOD ID SW CA-38,
DOD ID SW CA-45 through DOD ID SW CA-48, and
DoD Root CA 2 through DoD Root CA 4
Error 100001 Solution
Error 100013 Solution
You may notice 2 or 3 of the certificates will have a red circle with a white X . This means your Mac does not trust those certificates
You need to manually trust the DoD Root CA 3 & DoD Root CA 4 Root certificates
Double click DoD Root CA 3, select Trust, in the When using this certificate: select Always Trust, repeat for DoD Root CA 4
You may be prompted to enter computer password
Once you select Always Trust, your icon will have a light blue circle with a white + in it.
Some of the "bad certs" that have caused problems for Windows users now show up in the keychain access section on some Macs. These need to be deleted / moved to trash.
The DoD Root CA 2 you are removing has a light blue frame, leave the yellow frame version. The icons may or may not have a red circle with the white x
If you have tried accessing CAC enabled sites prior to following these instructions, please go through this page before proceeding
Clearing the keychain (opens a new page)
Don't forget to come back to this page to continue.
Step 5a: Additional DoD certificate installation instructions for Firefox users
Download AllCerts.zip, remember where you save it.
Click Firefox (word) (upper left of your screen)
Advanced (tab on left side of screen)
Certificates (tab)
View Certificates (button)
Authorities (tab)
Import (button)
Browse to the DoD certificates (AllCerts) you downloaded from link above.
Note: You have to do this step for each certificate (if anyone knows a way to automate this, please contact me)
Note2: If the certificate is already in Firefox, a window will pop up telling you it is already installed.
Note3: If the certificate is not already in Firefox, a window will pop up showing the image below to set the trust settings.
Check all three boxes to allow the certificate to: identify websites, identify email users, and identify software developers
Once you've added all of the certificates...
Step 6: Decide which CAC enabler you can / want to use
After installing the CAC enabler, restart the computer and go to a CAC enabled website

Unfortunately for Sun Devil fans though, Danny Sullivan continued to play like he has all year, often times overthrowing his receivers, and turning the ball over as he has of late.
Early in the second quarter Sullivan forced a throw that Chris Galippo picked off and returned to the ASU 31, but just when the momentum began swinging in USC's direction, the ASU defense came up with a big stop, getting the ball back.
The team began to drive, but again the drive stalled in the red zone. For one play Sullivan was knocked out, true freshman signal caller Brock Osweiler game in the game and was greeted by several cheers from the Sun Devil crowd, only to leave to game on the following play.
"Basically, I wasn't really notified to warm up or anything because I was going in," Osweiler noted. "It was more or less the ref ruled that Danny was down too long and he had to go out for one play. I just put my helmet on, went in there, and just tried making a play. At that point in the game we really needed a touchdown and J-Vo made a great play and almost got the ball in the end zone."
The team wouldn't be so lucky to escape Sullivan's second mistake though, as Sullivan was picked off by Will Harris who easily strode into the end zone putting USC up 7-3. A score that would remain through halftime.
After the half, Sun Devil fans got what they all were wishing for, after watching a 75-yard USC touchdown, as Brock Osweiler re-entered the game, but this time for good.
"My role as a backup quarterback on this team is to go in when I'm told to, be ready to play at all times, and to do what this team needs," Osweiler stated. "So that's all I tried to do tonight. I was told at halftime that I was going to start the second half, and I just tried to tell the offensive guys to be ready. We have to go out there and score points. Unfortunately we didn't do that in the second half, but at the same time I think a lot of things happened tonight that we can build upon and I think this team is going to be ok in the future."
"Danny and myself are great friends," Osweiler pointed out. "We're roommates on the road and in the hotel the night before games, so he just came up to me and told me 'It's just like practice, it's just like any other game,' and be calm, and he wished me the best. There was a couple times where he helped me out with coverages and stuff like that, so Danny was a great leader tonight and really helped me out."
Osweiler gave Sun Devil fans some hope late in the third quarter as a looked off a safety and lofted a perfect pass to Chris McGaha in the end zone.
"That's a play that we don't call very often," Osweiler admitted. "We try to set teams up and use it to our advantage and call it maybe once or twice during a game. Chris ran a great route, he set up his defender perfectly and the line gave me time to make that throw. In all reality my job was really easy on that play and Chris and the offensive line mad a heck of an effort to get us in the end zone.
"I was just trying to move the safety. They were in a single safety set and I was just trying to move him over to the left side of the field a little bit to give Chris more room to work and try to make the play a little bit easier on us."
Regardless of the touchdown pass, Osweiler had the support of the Sun Devil crowd as he received cheers and chants of his name whenever he stepped onto the field.
"To know that many people support you and are behind you and want you to succeed, it gives you a huge boost of confidence," Osweiler said, "but at the same time, we've got a lot of work to do, but we're real close to exploding as an offense. I feel like these next three games will be pretty exciting."
USC's defense poses a tough test for any quarterback, especially a true freshman, but Osweiler handled the situation well and better than most.
"They're a very athletic defense," Osweiler declared. "You have to give them all the credit in the world. They have great football players, and their coaches put them in a great position to succeed, but once again I felt like my teammates gave me the opportunity to make plays, and I just didn't make those plays tonight.
I think a lot of this comes down to me, our defense could not have played any better to give me numerous opportunities to go down there and get that ball in the end zone so we could win the game. Once again it's a learning experience and I learned a lot tonight."
With time dwindling and no timeouts left, Osweiler was given the task of moving the team down the field for the game winning touchdown, most of which through no-huddle, something he hasn't done since high school.
"That was the first time I've done that since I've been to ASU," Osweiler commented. "I feel like I called some good plays, but at the same time when I got into the locker room after the game, looking back on it, I feel like I could've called some different ones. That's one of those situations where all I can do is learn from it, watch the film tomorrow and just improve on that area of my game.
"I've got to give credit to their four down linemen. They did a heck of a job tonight to get pressure on Danny and myself. At the same time, at the end of the game, especially in the fourth quarter there was opportunities for myself to make plays and I didn't get the job done. There were receivers open and I felt like if I got them the ball then maybe we would've moved down the field and scored the go ahead touchdown. All we can do from this experience is, I have to go to the film room tomorrow and see where I made those mistakes and fix them up because this is an awfully good football team and we have a lot of talent at wide receiver and offensive line, so I've got to get them the ball and I got to make plays."
Osweiler completed 11 of 27 pass attempts for 153 yards with one touchdown and one interception. He also added 6 carries for 22 yards, showing off some of his mobility.
Though all losses are tough, the Sun Devils have to take pride in what they did against the No. 12 team in the nation, especially with a true freshman at the helm for the majority of the game.
"Any time you compete with a team like we did tonight, it shows a lot," Osweiler said, "but at the same time we've known all year and we know right now how good of a football team we are, and we feel that we can compete with anybody in the country, so we're not backing down from anybody and I know these next three football games are going to be close games and now it's just up to our offense to make big plays at the right times and get ourselves in the end zone."

LONDON (AP) Liverpool needed a late penalty kick to escape with a 1-1 tie at Sheffield United on Saturday in the opening game of the English Premier League season.
Robbie Fowler scored the tying goal from the penalty spot in the 70th minute after a foul on Steven Gerrard. Rob Hulse had given the hosts the lead in the 46th.
Liverpool, which has a Champions League game against Israeli champion Maccabi Haifa on Wednesday, lost two key players to ankle injuries in the opening 34 minutes. Defenders Jamie Carragher and Jon Arne Riise had to be replaced.
Liverpool fell behind in the opening minute of the second half when Hulse headed in a free kick from David Unsworth.
Sheffield United goalkeeper Paddy Kenny then saved a header from Craig Bellamy midway through the second half, but he was beaten three minutes later. Gerrard got into the area and Kenny saved his weak shot. However, the Liverpool captain's leg had been caught by Phil Jagielka, and Fowler made the penalty kick.
The game at Bramall Lane was the first in the top tier of English soccer in 12 years.
Sheffield United manager Neil Warnock watched from the stands. He was banned from the bench for the opening two games for arguing with the referee and Leeds United manager Kevin Blackwell during a League Championship game near the end of last season.
Reading, starting started with U.S. players Marcus Hahnemann and Bobby Convey, overturned a two-goal deficit and beat Middlesbrough 3-2 in its first game ever in the Premier League.
U.S. goalkeeper Tim Howard, on loan from Manchester United, made his league debut with Everton in a 2-1 win over Watford. Andy Johnson and Mikel Arteta scored for Everton.
Arsenal got a tying goal from Gilberto Silva in the 84th to hold Aston Villa to a 1-1 tie in the first league game at Emirates Stadium. Olof Mellberg put Villa in the lead with a header in the 53rd minute.
Portsmouth beat Blackburn 3-0, despite U.S. goalkeeper Brad Friedel saving a penalty kick during injury time.
Diego spurs Werder Bremen to victory in Bundesliga play
BERLIN — Werder Bremen beat Bayer Leverkusen 2-1 in the Bundesliga, with Brazilian Diego setting up both goals.
Diego first sent a free kick to Miroslav Klose for the tying goal in the 26th minute, then assisted on Hugo Almeida's winner in the 77th. Leverkusen had taken the lead in the 15th on Paul Freier's penalty kick, and went close several times soon after.
Hamburger SV needed a late goalkeeper blunder to salvage a 2-2 tie against promoted Energie Cottbus.
Hamburg got its tying goal in the 71st when Cottbus goalkeeper Tomislav Piplica ran out and missed Rafael van der Vaart's corner, leaving Nigel de Jong to head into an empty net.
Boubacar Sanogo put Hamburg ahead in the 38th minute, with Cottbus' goals coming from Vlad Munteanu in the 56th and Sergiu Radu in the 69th.
Ribery resurfaces with goal for Marseille
PARIS — Franck Ribery scored his first goal since the World Cup, helping Marseille beat host Auxerre 3-0 in the French league.
Toifilou Maoulida and Mickael Pagis also scored for Marseille, which has seven points from three games and had yet to concede a goal.
Ribery, who had wanted to leave the club before the season started, gave Marseille the lead in the 45th minute for his first goal since he tied the score against Spain in the second round of the World Cup.

Here's a quick dish about one of my favorite quick dishes. In Michigan the year is at that sweet spot when the weather and the heirloom tomato season makes every shopping day a mandatory caprese salad for lunch day. With fresh, tasty and local tomatoes and mozzarella purchased less than an hour before, the dish requires minimal embellishment and so mere minutes after arriving home with the grocery I could be sitting down to reward myself with a leisurely, cool Mediterranean meal – sometimes followed by a Mediterranean siesta especially if I had some wine with my lunch. This past week, Oanh interrupted me as I went to harvest some basil for my salad. She had a hunch that rau om would work well in caprese salad and suggested I try that instead. She was right.
Caprese salad was real easy to make – I sliced up roughly equal parts fresh mozzarella and fresh tomatoes – the fresher the better, then added extra virgin olive oil, and basil. Our mozzarella came well salted, and the tomatoes were so flavorful, there was never any desire to embellish the salad further – but salt, pepper, vinaigrette, and sun-dried tomatoes are common additions found in other recipes. We also liked having some tasty crusty bread handy to sop up the delicious tomato juice / olive oil mixture.
Into this minimalist meal we added rau om. That rau om went well with tomatoes was not a surprise in retrospect – they've been paired together before in canh chua / Vietnamese sour soup and Oanh's tomato and pineapple dessert. But it was surprising to see how well rau om went with fresh mozzarella. Maybe Marco Polo ought to have brought rau om back to Italy to grow in the paddies alongside the imported rice and water buffaloes.
The pictures included in this post came from my second caprese salad with rau om. I actually preferred the first salad, made with a mix of basil and rau om. The floral roundness of rau om contrasted very well with the sharp spiciness of basil. Without basil, the salad was too mellow.
That's our of our homegrown rau om above. They were rooted (placed in water until roots came out) from herbs bought at the market and grown under an improvised hot house (a plastic bag). That last part came from a tip by Andrea at Viet World Kitchen and was a much needed but missing detail that doomed our previous efforts to grow rau om. Otherwise, rau om was ridiculously easy to propagate from cuttings, and now we have our own fresh supply!

Khloe Kardashian clapped back at fans who accused her Good American jeans brand off using a 'sweatshop' after she posted a Snapchat tour of the factory in Los Angeles. We have all the details, here.
Khloe Kardashian, 32, definitely was not expecting to receive so much criticism after she posted a Snapchat video that showed her giving fans a tour of her Good American jeans brand factory. "We are at my Good American denim factory, look at these rolls and rolls of denim," Klo proudly declared before beginning the tour. However, after she shared the clip, one of her Twitter followers SLAMMED her, writing, "By the looks of @khloekardashian Snapchat, she's got a sweat shop working on her jeans." Immediately, the reality star clapped back at the accusations, tweeting, "Watch your mouth. All make salaries and all are employed in la! Know your info before you chime in." Wow!
But the Strong Looks Better Naked author didn't stop there. She continued slamming the sweatshop claims, writing, "It means a lot to me to fight to make my denim in the US and to be employing good wages to all of my hardworking employees!" Preach!

Khloe announced her Good American line back in Sept. 2016, targeted to fit women of all shapes and sizes. "I'm so excited to announce my new denim brand @goodamerican!" she exclaimed at the time.

We just hope that Klo shakes off the haters and continues to make some stellar jean designs!

The U.S. can be energy independent in fewer than 10 years if it keeps developing domestic oil and shale gas fields, a TransCanada official told CNBC Tuesday.
Discussing some short term plans to reduce oil and gas prices, with T. Boone Pickens, BP Capital Management founder/CEO, who says the U.S. has the cheapest energy in the world.
Gasoline prices are rising, currently averaging $3.72 a gallon. That means there's opportunity for investors in drilling and refinery company stocks, Sterne Agee analyst Tim Rezvan told CNBC Monday.
Crude oil on Tuesday posted its biggest two-day price drop in six weeks, leading noted investor Dennis Gartman to forecast a six-month trend ahead.
Drivers aren't the only group growing concerned as gas prices tick upwards. Most retailers and consumer discretionary businesses consider $4 gasoline the tipping point, where consumers begin to pull back on their discretionary spending.

EOG Resources is one of Cramer's faves, and EOG Chairman & CEO Mark Papa explains why his company is worth the investment.
A large fire broke out at the BP Cherry Point oil refinery in northwestern Washington State. It is the largest oil refinery in the state and the fourth largest on the West Coast. The refinery can produce up to 230,000 barrels of fuel a day and has more than 700 full-time employees. The cause of the fire is unknown. A BP official tells the NBC affiliate in Seattle, KING-TV, that no one was injured.
The latest inflation data shows rising gasoline prices could start to pinch consumers and steal away any savings from the just-approved extension of the payroll tax cut.
Rising gasoline prices could bite into any savings from the expected extension of the payroll tax cut, but for now the higher costs could be somewhat offset by lower winter heating bills.

The chief executive of Gulf Oil sees gasoline approaching $4 a gallon this summer despite declining demand as more refineries close and tensions heat up in the Middle East.
Canada will focus on exporting oil and other goods to China and other booming Asian economies even if Washington overturns its decision to block a pipeline that would have sent more Canadian crude to the United States.
Any decision by Iran to cut oil exports to the European Union will affect the price of oil and hurt the region's economy, OPEC Secretary General Abdalla Salem El-Badri told CNBC on Monday.
East coast consumers could see the return of $4 gasoline before the rest of the country, as another key refinery serving the region plans to shut down.

As always, thanks for the continued interest! This part of the chapter might be a little confusing, but stick with me. The next part should provide some clarity if you're too lost. (Let's just go with the Butterfly Theory effect for now.)
Also, to answer a question that I received...yes, this story is completely plotted out and is finished. (Almost. I'm doing little tweaks as I post each chapter.) And I'm not going to give away any plotlines. That would be spoiling the fun! :)
0110110001101001011000100111 0010011000010111001001101001 0110000101101110
Random memories from times that he remembered differently assailed him as John was pulled back through the tendrils of time.
The drive through the Autumn is rougher than John expected. The Warthog bounces as he is going as fast as he can through the damaged ship. Around him, Grunts and Elites are shooting at him and the Flood that has taken over the Autumn. He dodges the bullets and bursts of plasma as best as he is able, but his shields are still taking a beating.
As the Warthog sails over another small gap, he glances at the time on the countdown. Less than four minutes are remaining.
He pushes the pedal harder.
"Cortana to Echo 419, request extraction now, on the double!" Cortana's voice is tense.
They are running out of time.
"Affirmative, Cortana. Foe Hammer inbound."
John continues to weave through the firefight. The Warthog bounces as the uneven ground of the ship rolls underneath them. He steers the transport to an open ledge.
"Wait, stop! This is where Foe Hammer is coming to pick us up. Hold position. Wait. Cortana to Echo 419, I'm detecting a couple of Covenant Banshees on your six. Evade. Say again, evade!"
John scans the horizon for the aircrafts, but can't see anything yet. He waits in the Warthog, ready to plow through any Flood that are foolish enough to come to the open landing.
Rawley's voice is calm when she responds. "We've got it, Cortana. Lieutenant, get on those ASMs and show those Covenant who they're messing with."
Less than a minute later, smoke plumes from the sky.
"Do you think..." Cortana's voice trails off.
John is silent for a moment, listening for any sounds of aircraft flying towards them. "I don't-"
"Echo 419 to Cortana, are you and the Chief ready to get off this ring or what?" John sees the Pelican coming towards them. It's the first good thing he has seen all day.
He hops out of the Warthog as the Pelican makes its final approach. John barely waits for the ramp to touch the ground before climbing up it. As he steps into the rear corridor, Foe Hammer starts to fly from the surface. He walks to where her and her co-pilot are in the cabin. "Thanks," he says sincerely.
Rawley flashes him a wide grin. "I have you to thank, Chief. If you hadn't made that comment about not having too much firepower right before we left Reach, I might not have been convinced to make the last minute adjustments to add the missile pods." She shakes her head. "I'd hate to think what would happen if I hadn't done that."
John frowns. He doesn't remember saying that to her, but so much of that night is still a blur to him.
"I would suggest powering down as soon as possible," Cortana says. "We're going to need the engines later to figure out some sort of escape plan."
Rawley nods. "You've got it, Cortana."
John walks to the back of the cabin. There are a half-dozen Marines and three ODSTs there, looking as exhausted as he feels. He takes a seat away from all of them.
It doesn't take long for the ship to shudder as debris from the explosion hits the Pelican.
"Halo. It's finished." Cortana sounds relieved.
John shakes his head. "No. I think it's just getting started."
Nothing is right.
Cortana is still trapped on High Charity with the Gravemind. Johnson has been ambushed by Truth's armada and taken captive by the Prophet. Miranda isn't responding on her comm channel.
John is starting to lose faith in Cortana's solution.
He casts a worried glance at the Arbiter knowing that the former Elite can't see the expression behind his visor.
They are making their way to the Ark's control center, not knowing what dangers are awaiting them. He checks his rifle as they step on the gravlift. His gun is ready to take out whatever is waiting for them.
A single gunshot catches his attention as they are riding up the lift.
"Stop her!" John recognizes the voice as Truth.
The Arbiter's grip on his energy sword tightens.
John wills for the lift to move faster. The seconds seem to stretch until finally he can see the top. When the lift stops, John looks down the long corridor. He can see Truth and hear a struggle. A pool of blood is forming on the ground, but John can't see where it is coming from.
"Let me go!" It is Miranda.
Seconds later, the lights down the corridor are lit. The Halo Array is active.
He and the Arbiter move to go where Miranda is, but are stopped by two Tank Forms of the Flood. "Do not shoot, but listen! Let me lead you safely to our foe. Only you can stop what he has set in motion."
Accepting help from the enemy is not something John is accustomed to doing, but until he is able to figure out what is going on, he is willing to work with the Flood. He nods reluctantly.
As John crosses the light bridge with the Arbiter, he can't help but to notice how quiet everything has become. When he steps onto the platform, he sees an infected Brute. Then, he turns away and sees Miranda holding Johnson, who is dead from a single gunshot wound in his chest.
She looks at him guiltily. "He told me-" Her voice catches in her voice. She gently closes Johnson's still-open eyelids. She whispers, "It wasn't supposed to be like this."
She looks at John. When she speaks, her voice is louder, "Stop the rings. Save everyone else."
All John wants to do is to go home.
The plan to eliminate the Flood was simple: Miranda was going to escort Cortana to the control panel so the AI could activate the Index while he stood watch at the door, protecting them from any Flood that tried to get inside the control room.
But Guilty Spark had other plans.
When Guilty Spark had attacked Miranda after realizing that they intended to fire the rings before the Installation was complete, John used the Spartan Laser to destroy the rampant AI.
John glances at the now non-functioning Monitor with a scowl before looking at his fallen friend.
Miranda groans slightly as he moves to her side. Burns cover her torso, blood stains her once-pristine uniform.
She is dying.
"I'm getting you out of here," he vows, wishing he had something to tend her wounds.
She shakes her head. Her eyes are getting glassy. "No, Chief, I'm not going to be able to finish this fight." She reaches out and takes his hand. Cortana's chip is between their palms. "Take care of her, Chief. Don't ever leave her behind." She coughed. "Tell my mother that I love..."
Her eyes roll in the back of her head. Her grip around John's hands slackens. Cortana's chip slips from her hold. John grips the crystal securely.
Miranda is dead.
John stands up slowly, grief washing over him. This wasn't part of the plan. Woodenly, he walks to the control panel and holds out Cortana's chip for her to activate the Index.
She looks up at him, sadness in her eyes. "Chief...I am so sorry."
So is he.
"This wasn't supposed to happen!"
John recognizes Cortana's voice as his mind is lured from the darkness of unconsciousness. He doesn't know where he is; based on the darkness that engulfs the ship, it is safe to say they haven't made it back to earth through their journey through the Portal.
"Where are we?" John asks.
"Unknown. The Portal collapsed before we could get through." There is a bitterness to her voice that catches John off-guard. "Maybe you really can't change your destiny."
John pulls himself in the direction of the cryobay. Being in a cryotube will be the only way for him to survive floating in deep space until the UNSC finds them. He slips Cortana's crystal into the reader and her avatar appears from the holotank. "What destiny?"
She runs her hand through her hand and starts pacing in a tight circle. She casts him a guilty look. "I've been keeping something from you. Since Reach."
A gnawing feeling settles over John. He has always known something happened that night when he had delivered Cortana to the Autumn.
"I shouldn't tell you this." She flashes him a apologetic look. "There is still the issue of polluting the prime timeline, but let's just say that when you wake up, you need to be ready to fight."
"Who told you this?"
She turns away from him, avoiding his question. "You should get in the cryotube."
A haunted look covers her face. "I did. I received a message from a future Cortana."
His brows furrow. "Why didn't you tell me this before?"
"The Paradox Initiative was in effect." She lets out a soft sigh. "And I was doing what I could do make sure the the future didn't repeat itself. You didn't see her. The other Cortana. She was dying." Cortana stops her walking and looks John squarely in the eye. "That's not going to happen to me."
Though his mind is having trouble wrapping around the validity of her words, he knows she is telling him the truth. John has never seen Cortana so upset; not even when he rescued her from the Gravemind. He wonders what was on that video.
He has faith that Cortana will be able to achieve what the other Cortana could not. "I know it's not."
"I guess we know what I'll be doing while you're taking a nap." She flashes him an impish grin. It's forced, but it makes John feel a little less awkward. "I won't even have time to miss you."
John takes that as his cue to move towards the cryotube. He is worried about his friend and hopes she doesn't do anything too risky while he is cut off from the world around them. "Wake me...if you need me."
She put her hand on her hip. "I'll be fine, Chief."
Images, sounds, smells, and memories compounded on top of each other. John felt his head roaring, demanding for an end to the overwhelming sensations. A scream was ripped from him as he was dragged through the space-time continuum.
Then, thankfully, there was silence.

The Easy Clear 6000 by Hozelock is the best option for a clear and healthy pond. It is a pump, filter and UV clarifier all built into one easy to use and simple design. It is the perfect way to keep your pond looking clean and healthy as it is easy to install and is hassle free; only requiring a little easy maintenance once in a while.
How to Install
It is easy to install in just a few simple steps all you have to do is attach the desired head, attach power cable and put into the centre of your pond and you don't have to do anything else except do some simple maintenance every now and again.
How it works
The Easy Clear 6000 works because the pump draws in the water from your static or dirty pond and in its first phase it removes the solids out of the water and the foam filter holds these to stop it from going back out into the water. In its second phase the Kaldnes biological filtration removes as much bad bacteria and other things as possible to make your water healthy for fish to live in, and in its third stage as the water is going through the pipe to leave the fountain the UV clarifier eliminates the green water making your pond look clean, clear and healthy again.
Useful Information
Includes pump, filter and UV clarifier
3 different fountain heads (twotier, three tier and bell)
All elements are easily accessed for maintenance
One power cable
Ball joint for easy levelling of the fountain
Suitable for ponds up to 6000 litres (if your pond is bigger see the Easy clear 9000)
Choice of fountain or waterfall
Makes your pond clean, clear and healthy again
The Easy Clear is suitable for ponds up to 6000 litres, if your pond is bigger than 6000 litres.

Kometsuki (米槻 Kometsuki?) or Vice-principal Kometsuki (米槻教頭 Kometsuki Kyōtō?) (Mr. Weaver in the English dub) is the vice-principal of Verone Academy. Institute and enthusiastic about guiding the daily lives of students, but is a sarcastic man with a short temper and not very popular with the students. In every episode, he's always with the Principal to get close to him or being trained by him. He was possessed by a Zakenna. Hides a hobby of reading manga he confiscates from students.
Sometime before Futari wa Pretty Cure began he became assistant principal in fact he has been there so long that this was his job when Fujita Akane attended school there. During this time he acquired the bad habit of reading Magna that he confiscated from students and taking other things to cover it up. This led him to confiscate Mepple while he was in cell phone form prompting Nagisa to try anything to get him back. During an episode of Futari wa Pretty Cure he was turned into a Zakkena and seemed to let out some of his frustrations with the students before being changed back to normal. He is often seen with the Principal and gets into wacky situations with him prompting the students to term them both as a comedy duo.

Review: Emmanuelle Devos Shines in Biopic VIOLETTE
In Martin Provost's biopic of a post-war French writer Violette Leduc, Devos delivers another gold-star performance, again using her arguably unremarkable physical attributes as a weapon.
The film starts with Violette's black market smuggler days during WWII, when she is helplessly in love with a writer/fellow boarder, Maurice Sachs, in rural France. Even though Sachs is a closeted homosexual, lonely Violette doesn't let up throwing herself onto him. As a way to fight off her advances, he suggests that she take up writing.
After getting back to Paris and reading the writings of controversial feminist writer Simone de Beauvoir (Sandrine Kiberlain), Violette, forever lonely and emotionally needy, soon becomes enamored with the famous writer. In turn, de Beauvoir recognizes Violette's talent and encourages her to continue writing. With this encouragement, their lifelong friendship starts. Violette finds herself in de Beauvoir's circle of famous literary friends, Jean Genet, Jean-Paul Sartre and Albert Camus among them. She even finds an admirer of her work and a benevolent patron in a sensitive perfume mogul, Jacques Guérin (Olivier Gourmet).
Her first novel, In the Prison of Her Skin, is based on her life in an all-girls boarding school, frankly describing her lesbian affair with another student. (Certain parts of the book would later be adapted by sexploitation maestro Radley Metzger as Therese and Isabelle.) Her books, all based on her life stories, were considered salacious and scandalous at the time of their release; later she receives recognition as a trailblazer in feminist writing. She, unlike many other writers, at least gets to taste her success during her lifetime. However alone she may be in her private life, she gets to attain some inner peace that she very much deserves.
Provost (Seraphine) once again demonstrates his penchant for showcasing well-rounded female characters in his films: Violette doesn't come across as just a hysterical, extremely self-conscious woman, and de Beauvoir, not as just a cold-fish feminist icon. With the help of strong, down to earth performances by Kiberlain and Devos, Violette features great, undeniably human characters. Stately photographed by Yves Cape (Holy Motors, White Material, Humanité), the look of the film, spanning many seasons, is that of subtle elegance, and accentuates the superb acting.
Devos is, as usual, wonderful. Using her unconventional beauty and charm, she portrays a lonely woman who gets to express her insecurities and desires truthfully in writing, regardless of its consequences. Beautifully acted and executed, Violette is a great biopic that has a real heart.
Violette is scheduled to open in New York on Friday, June 13 at Lincoln Plaza Cinema and Angelika Film Center, followed by a national release.

I want a rhinoplasty to get rid of the bump on the bridge of my nose but I don't want to look fake and obvious that I've had nose surgery. How can I get natural-looking results from my rhinoplasty?
How Can I Get Natural-looking Rhinoplasty Results?
Doctor Answers 29
The key to a natural-looking rhinoplasty result is to focus on your face..not your nose!
I personally believe the single most important factor contributing to a natural appearance following rhinoplasty is maintaining naso-facial harmony. Simply put… at the end of the procedure, does the nose look like it belongs on a particular face? If the answer is yes, then more often than not, the results will be very natural-looking.
Another important point to keep in mind is that every patient who electively chooses to undergo rhinoplasty (nose job) is doing it with hopes of looking better. Typically, in these cases, the nose has some specific feature that is distracting from the overall attractiveness of the face.
For example a nose can appear to be too long, too short, too wide or too thin, but only relative to THAT individuals facial features. The same nose could potentially look perfect on another person's face. This is where rhinoplasty surgery gets interesting and really demanding. Suddenly it's no longer about the nose. It's about the face and the artistic and technical acumen of the surgeon to bring it all together.
The best example of this is with ethnic rhinoplasty. Often, attempts are made to create an ideal nose on a Middle-Eastern, Asian, or African-American patient. But if the "ideal" that is being followed is based on the Caucasian nose, the end result is an unnatural appearance that screams "rhinoplasty." When this occurs, the disharmony between the nose and the rest of the facial features distracts and detracts from the individual's overall attractiveness.
Furthermore, I find that the majority of patients are not far from their "individual" ideal, and subtle refinement is all it takes to tone down a harsh hump or gently reduce the width of a nose, etc. Really listening to the patient's desires and working with the intrinsic anatomy as opposed to trying to totally re-design it are important factors in achieving excellent natural-looking rhinoplasty results.
As a consumer, the first step is to look for a well-trained rhinoplasty specialist. Next, evaluate the before and after photos carefully. Even ask to have the opportunity to visit with previous patients. Then, ask yourself the following questions:
- Do the results look natural?
- Do the faces look more attractive as a result of the change? Although, it seems like it should every time, the reality is, even if the nose looks better, it doesn't mean the overall look has been enhanced.
- Finally, do the results appear similar to one another? Some surgeons have a signature style or more bluntly.. a cookie-cutter nose that is produced for essentially every case. Often, these noses are not the most natural-appearing… since there is no such thing as a "one size fits all" nose.

Rhinoplasty: Get the right doctor for your nose
In recent years, both doctors and the general public have developed a sophisticated taste for results of rhinoplasty (nose job) surgery. Gone are the days of "smaller" noses, "cute" noses, and "dainty" noses. The most common request in my practice is to have the most natural-looking nose possible – "I want it cute, and natural".
But what defines "natural" in a rhinoplasty result? What makes one person's nose look obviously altered by surgical manipulation and another's elegant, refined, and more balanced with his or her facial features?
Historically, the Egyptians, and Greeks, followed by Rennaisance artists such as Michelangelo, and Da Vinci, have studied countless faces and performed countless cadaver dissections to derive the anatomic features most pleasing the human eye.
In recent times, several of my colleagues have attempted to answer this very question. For example, Drs. David Pearson, and Peter Adamson of Toronto, Canada, published such a study in the Archives of Facial Plastic Surgery in 2004, exploring what type of nasal profile the general public considers most aesthetically pleasing. The study presented digitally enhanced photographs of Caucasian female volunteers in profile view (from the side) with their bridge and tip depicted in five different variations. The bridge was depicted as convex (with a hump), flat, or concave (with a scoop, or slope). The tip variations were depicted as tips that were overprojected (too far forward) to underprojected (too close to the face), and overrotated (pointing up) to ptotic (pointing down). The features that the survey returned were combined in order to draw the most beautiful nose as determined by the study's participants.
The results of studies such as this are not surprising - a flat to slightly concave bridge, a subtle break or transition between tip and bridge, and a tip angled slightly above the horizontal.
As someone who doesn't let a nose pass by without formulating a complete analysis and surgical plan, I can tell you that achieving a "natural and beautiful" nasal appearance after surgery is not as easy as studies like these would suggest. This is why there are specialists and so called "dabblers" in rhinoplasty surgery.
If you have been considering rhinoplasty, here are some tips and facts you should know to help you get your ideal result.
Have your own plan:
At the beginning of every consultation, I ask my patients some relevant medical history; then, I ask the patient "what would you do if you were me?" Simply put, what do you think is required to give you a result with which you would be happy? For some, a simple "shaving" or reduction of a hump on the bridge is enough; for others, a narrower tip, less visible nostril skin from the side view, so on and so forth.
In some cases, when the patient does not have a clear view of what they would change in their own, I would recommend using morphing software to digitally enhance and change features of the nose to facilitate discussions of the detailed changes they may and may not experience after rhinoplasty. In this digital age, photos are easily obtained, and reviewing them is extremely helpful in the consultation with your doctor. In fact, some patients notice new things they don't like about their nose during this part of the consultation.
Whatever it is that you don't like about your nose, the consultation with your potential surgeon is the time to put it on the table. At this time you should hear a few confirming comments from your surgeon and a plan for how to execute the surgery to fit your needs.
Know what you like:
When it comes time to look at the doctors' before and after pictures, some offices have a patient coordinator or consultant review the pictures with you, while some doctors prefer to review the pictures themselves. Regardless of how it is done, you must see a fair number of before and after pictures from each doctor with whom you consult. If the results you see are not to your liking, don't have your surgery done there - plain and simple.
Although most rhinoplasty surgeons have a fair knowledge of the aesthetic ideals and know the measurements that comprise this ideal, each person's ideal that they consider beautiful is different. The old cliché "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" holds true in regards to surgical results. If there are any doubts in your mind that your bridge might be too scooped for your liking, or your tip may be to forward, etc. then continue shopping – you owe this much to yourself!
Selecting your Doctor:
The American Board of Medical Specialties, who overlooks all specialty boards, considers diplomates of two specialty boards qualified and capable of performing plastic surgery on the face and nose. These are the American Board of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery, and the American Board of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Some diplomates of the former are also certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, indicating that they have completed a special examination and review process for competency in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
Despite specialty training, board certification, and membership to professional societies, the real abilities of surgeons are generally determined by many other factors.
One factor you should include in your decision is the doctors overall experience with the nose. Patients have repeatedly asked my staff "how many has he done overall, this year, this month, and this week." Of course, there are no magic numbers that can be used as a measure for experience, but you wouldn't want to have surgery in a practice whose specialty is tummy tucks.
In general, for elective procedures, I recommend that patients find a good personality fit for them. You should be comfortable with your doctor, and he or she should be comfortable with you. There should be no embarrassment or hesitation for you to discuss problems with your surgeon. He or she is committed to your best interest, and to getting you the best possible outcome. This requires good communication and overall personal comfort in the doctor-patient relationship.
Know your anatomy:
Prior to consultation with your surgeons, you should have a good knowledge of your nose. Just as you should know what you would do if you were operating on your own nose, you should know if you have had fractures, breathing problems, or possible allergies.
One of my standard questions during a consultation is "which side is harder to breathe through?". It may be your right side, your left side, or even switch sides. You may not have breathing problems at all.
Because of the anatomy of the nose, its form and function are very closely related. Any change in the appearance of the nose may translate into a change in its function. If you are undergoing elective surgery to improve the appearance of your nose, you deserve your surgeon's careful consideration of your nasal airway and nasal passages during your surgery. After all, what good is a beautiful nose if you cannot breathe through it?
Know the risks:
As with any other surgery, there are some potential risks associated with rhinoplasty. General risks include bleeding, infection, scarring, and blood clots under the skin. These and other specific risks should be carefully reviewed prior to rhinoplasty surgery. Not to scare you, but to inform you of things you should bring to your doctor's attention in the post-operative period. These may also help you decide if the changes you are requesting are worth taking the risk to improve. Your surgeon should also honestly discuss the risk-benefit balance of your specific desired outcome during your consultation.
Recovering from rhinoplasty is generally not painful, but can certainly be uncomfortable due to nasal congestion within the first few weeks. Bruises generally resolve within a week, and then there is the swelling. Swelling can mask the true result of your nasal surgery for months. It is generally thought that about eighty percent of your swelling resolves in the first six weeks, and the remaining twenty percent within one year from your surgery. Depending on how you heal, and the thickness of your skin, you should see a nearly complete result by six months from surgery.
Taking the plunge into a surgery that will change the central feature of your face can be relatively stressful, but rhinoplasty is among the most common elective surgeries performed today. The key things to remember in choosing the right surgeon for you will also help you to feel more comfortable trusting your face to your doctor.
Also remember to keep your goals subtle. Dramatic changes can lead to increased risk of an operated appearance, and a nose that is unbalanced with the rest of your face. Train yourself to use the "–er" words like "smaller", "cuter", "flatter", "straighter", and you will be happier in the end.
How to get a natural looking rhinoplasty result
Rhinoplasty is an operation that has undergone an evolution over the last decade. Patients and surgeons have an increased awareness of natural results. There is also an emphasis on providing stability for long term results, ones that will last 10, 20, 30+ years without developing problems. This is different from traditional surgeries, which used maximal reduction and resection as the means to achieve their results. The consequence of these techniques was an unnatural look with a high risk for long term partial nasal collapse and breathing difficulties.
The situation you describe is quite optimal for a natural-looking result.
- Most of the problems that patients encounter in both healing and operated appearance arise when aggressive tip surgery or overreduction of the profile is performed.
- If you like your tip and it can balance well with a reduced profile, then your likelihood of a natural result is increased.
- Additional benefit can be gained by leaving the bridge of the nose high.
- In some instances, a subtle hint of a bump may be cosmetically pleasing, depending on your overall facial structure.
- At most, a straight (not scooped) profile should be made, which runs just slightly (1-2mm) below your tip defining point, or highest point of the tip when viewed on profile. This optimal transition is medically referred to as a supratip break.
When patients require more extensive tip correction, I believe that several things are critical to ensure a 'natural' result.
I perform almost exlusively closed rhinoplasty, which by definition limits the number of grafts and sutures that can be used to modify the tip. As a consequence, I approach a nose with the mindset of how it can be modified, based on the underlying structure. My goal is not to restructure the nose using multiple grafts, but to remodel the existing cartilages into a different form.
With this in mind, my computer imaging consultation is driven by the concept of remodeling. Other surgeons will image what they want and then figure out how to get there. This often leads to an increase in the number of grafts that are used. Grafts increase a patient's potential for long term complications and may become visible over time as healing progresses. I limit their use to an absolute minimum and typically only require them for deviated nasal corrections or patients seeking a more 'stylized' result.
Translation: Remove only what you must, change only what is required, and ensure that structures will be stable over a long period of time. I believe that retaining and working with the essence of a patient's nose, not striving for radical wholesale change, is what provides a natural result.

For a natural rhinoplasty result don't get a perfectly straight profile
A bump seen in the profile view is one of the most common concerns we see in patients seeking rhinoplasty. Many wonder about or ask whether they can achieve a perfectly straight-line profile after surgery? You may have seen rhinoplasty results such as these, or those that go one step further and scoop out the nasal bridge.
The fact is that even beautiful unoperated noses are NEVER perfectly straight in profile. You could even say that nature hates a straight line since all of our features are made up of gentle curves and geometric shapes.
Our eyes are drawn to straight lines. We recognize them and pick them out easily. So, a scooped out or perfectly straight nasal profile is usually a dead giveaway that someone has had rhinoplasty surgery. Not only is it unnatural, a ski-slope profile overly softens the nasal appearance, making it appear 'washed out' and child-like.
A naturally appealing profile has a very slight fullness or 'strength' in the area of the bridge and just a hint of a depression or 'break' just above the tip. This is the post-operative profile we strive for in our practice for many of our patients. However, we will work with you during your consultation to see what is optimal for you. After all, it's your nose and your aesthetic matters most.
Some patients prefer the idea of a straight profile, which can be very elegant if it fits your other facial features. We rarely have patients who even ask for a slight slope, and that may be OK for them. But, if you want a great-looking and totally inconspicuous Rhinoplasty result, ask us about going 'natural'.
For a natural-looking rhinoplasty, seek experience, think function
Think Function
- The best way to think of Rhinoplasty is a procedure of form and function. 80% of breathing is perfomed through the nose. In turn, we warm and humidify the air we breathe through the nose.
- "Old fashioned" Rhinoplasty approaches were primarily reductive procedures, or procedures designed to take away cartilage and soft tissue from the nose. Because of the very important functional role of the nose, overly aggressive nasal procedures cannot only alter your appearance, they can also dramatically alter function.
Normal Function, Natural Result
- More recent trends in Rhinoplasty, termed "Structural Rhinoplasty" as described by Calvin Johnson and Dean Toriumi, promote augmentative approaches to refine the anatomy and appearance of the nose. Rhinoplasty, when performed under this philosophy, tends to yield more natural appearing results.
- It makes sense that more conservative, augmentative procedures will not only preserve function, but will also produce an aesthetically pleasing, natural look.
Not for the Occasional Surgeon: Seek Experience
- It is no secret that Rhinoplasty is one of the most challenging procedures for the best of surgeons. It is also no secret that the appearance of a nose after Rhinoplasty evolves over time and that a nose will show changes from one to five years after the procedure. Experience in Rhinoplasty is a very important ingredient in the selection process of a surgeon.
Natural rhinoplasty? Pick your surgeon carefully!
Rhinoplasty is considered the most difficult of all facial plastic surgical procedures by the best rhinoplasty surgeons in the world. Your best chance at a natural-looking result is at the first surgery.
It is not rhinoplasty that makes a nose appear fake, but the surgeon who operates on the nose. Take your time to do your due diligence about your surgeon's skill and aesthetic sense. It takes a lot longer to repair a botched rhinoplasty than to choose your surgeon wisely and most carefully. Make sure that you communicate what you want your nose to look like (as well as what you don't want it to look like) to your surgeon, listen to what your surgeon plans to do, and make sure that they are the same (or very close to the same). You need to be on the same wavelength before getting anywhere close to the operating room with your nose.
Choose your surgeon most carefully!
Be well and good.

Harmony, Balance & Proportion are Critical to Fantastic Rhinoplasty Results
Dorsal humps can be easily removed from the nose with preservation of a natural appearance. This can ultimately result in significant improvement in facial aesthetics. This can be accomplished with standard rhinoplasty techniques.
Before proceeding with this type of procedure a careful analysis of facial aesthetics should be undertaken. It's important to consider the nose in the context of other facial structures. Harmony, balance, and proportion are obviously critical to facial aesthetics. Each patient must be considered individually. It's important to be evaluated by a board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with rhinoplasty. When appropriate evaluation and surgery are performed, satisfaction rates are high with rhinoplasty.
Todays rhinoplasty is different than your...
Todays rhinoplasty is different than your mother's/grandmother's rhinoplasties. New techniques allow us to obtain results that are far superior to those achieved even 10 years ago. It was possible because contemporary rhinoplasty techniques involve not only removal/resection of the cartilage and bone but also improvement in the structural support.
It is still a very challenging and difficult procedure. There is no substitute for experience. You should carefully select your surgeon and make sure that he is very experienced in performing rhinoplasty surgeries.
Look at the before and after photos. Since most people don't allow their pictures to be shown to the general public, one has to have hundreds if not thousands of patiens to show multiple samples of the surgeon's work.
If the nose surgery is performed right, the nose will appear absolutely normal after surgery.

Rhinoplasty: Tips for Getting A Natural Result
Rhinoplasty is often considered the most diffcult procedure in cosmetic surgery. For the nose to appear natural it must be in balance and harmony with your other facial features.
Here are several tips for increasing the chances that you will get a natural-looking result with your rhinoplasty.
- Choosing a qualified surgeon is the most important decision you can make when deciding to under go nasal surgery.
First and foremost, choose an surgeon who specializes in nasal surgery. Your surgeon should also experienced at correcting both functional problems (such as a deviated septum) and cosmetic problems.
- Your surgeon be Board Certified in either Otolaryngology (ENT) or Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Not all ENTs or Plastic Surgeons routinely perform rhinoplasty. It is important to find one who does. Rhinoplasty takes considerable experience to get predictable results.
- View the Surgeons Rhinoplasty Before & After Results.
Most rhinoplasty surgeons maintain a portfolio of examples of their results that compare before and after photos, and many qualified rhinoplasty surgeons have a "Results Gallery" on their websites. You can tell a lot about your potential results by looking at their previous work.
- Ask to See Simulated Results.
Your rhinoplasty surgeon should analyze your pre-operative photographs with you and be able to show you graphically their intended results.
Your outcome and satisfaction after rhinoplasty is largely dependent on the skill of your surgeon.

When Nate Robinson arrived to play with the New York Knicks in 2005, you couldn't wipe the childlike grin off his face all season long.
No one gave him a shot to make it to the NBA, yet here he was coming off the bench for Larry Brown (and later Isiah Thomas) and putting up some decent numbers. In four seasons with the Knicks, Robinson averaged double-digits off the bench for the Knicks and averaged 17.2 points in 29.9 minutes during his 2008-09 year. That was his best season as a pro. That was also 3 Slam Dunk titles and three NBA teams ago. Make that four, with Robinson nearing a deal with the Golden State Warriors.
Over the last few weeks, Robinson has talked about his desire to change and distance himself from being labeled an "act" around the league. He said he's matured. And while his time spent with Boston and Oklahoma City didn't help his NBA stock, the Warriors are taking a chance on Robinson for one major reason: they could sure use some scoring off the bench.
If head coach Mark Jackson can help re-focus the energetic point guard and get him to see this might actually be his last go around in the league, Golden State's free agent signing of Robinson could be a steal. Reuniting with David Lee -- who was also a rookie with the Knicks -- will also help ease Robinson into the Warriors' locker room and overall team chemistry. Besides, maybe Robinson really has grown.
The Warriors are expected to make the Robinson signing official in the next two days and just in time too: Golden State faces upcoming games against the Los Angeles Lakers, Utah Jazz and Miami Heat.
Jamison Wants To Finish Career With Charlotte?
If Antawn Jamison plays two or three more years in the league, there's a good chance it could be with the Charlotte Bobcats.
A 14-year NBA veteran now playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Jamison grew up in Charlotte and will become a free agent after this season. He told the Charlotte Observer on Tuesday that "he'd give every consideration to signing with the Bobcats" before retiring from the game.
The two-time All-Star won the NBA Sixth Man of the Year Award back in 2004 and this season with the Cavs is is averaging 16.8 points and 4.8 rebounds. The Bobcats could use those kind of numbers.
"That's always been a dream of mine - to be home" for the conclusion of his career, Jamison said. "To have my parents there (at home games), to have my kids there." Certainly Jamison's North Carolina ties helps put him in Michael Jordan's good graces. Another strong benefit:
Charlotte will have around $20 million in salary-cap space next summer.
Finding The Story Behind Hilton Armstrong And The Clippers
You might have heard or read that Hilton Armstrong -- the 6-foot-11 power forward and center who played with New Orleans, Sacramento, Houston, Washington and Atlanta -- worked out for the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday as part of a free agent foursome that included Solomon Jones, DJ Mbenga, Dan Gadzuric, and Armstrong.
No big deal, right? Guess that depends on if Armstrong is still under contract with ASVEL in France, where he signed to play during the NBA lockout, and if the team was approving of the session.
He last played for ASVEL on December 27th and then returned home for the New Years holiday. He is averaging 9.5 points and 7.5 rebounds in 13 French League games, and 6.8 points and 5.3 rebounds per game in Eurocup play for ASVEL. The team - who boasts Tony Parker as their VP of Basketball Operations and had the services of both Parker and Ronny Turiaf during the lockout - next play on January 14 versus Dijon. All that remains is the unknown if Armstrong will return to play for ASVEL or if he will go the route of Acie Law, who decided not to return to Serbia this week after a homecoming trip to the States.
Armstrong working out for the Clippers raises the red flag. Both emails to ASVEL's team representatives and Armstrong's reps (Excel Sports) have gone unreturned at the time of this posting.
Maybe Tony Parker can be of some help.
