Chester Frazier joins Weber's staff
Kansas State men's basketball coach Bruce Weber added another former player to his coaching staff on Tuesday with the addition of former Illinois standout Chester Frazier as an assistant coach.
Frazier's contract details are still being finalized, but he will earn a base salary of $135,000 for 2012-13. He joins fellow assistant coaches Chris Lowery and Alvin Brooks III, director of men's basketball operations Brad Korn and strength and conditioning coach Jimmy Price on Weber's coaching staff.
"I'm really excited about the addition of Chester to the staff," Weber said in a release. "He's another former player of mine who I think is going to be an outstanding coach. He's sort of in the same mold as (current Vanderbilt head coach) Kevin Stallings and (Purdue head coach) Matt Painter, where I always knew he was going to be a coach.
"Chester is young (26) and has ties to the East Coast (Baltimore), which were goals for my final assistant spot. He's a real student of the game and someone who I think will be able to develop strong relationships with our players."
Frazier comes to K-State after playing professionally for two years in Germany, first for Goettingen (2009-10) and then for S. Oliver Baskets Wuerzburg Basketball Club (2011-12).
As the starting point guard for head coach John Patrick, Frazier helped Wuerzburg to a 20-14 overall record and trip to the semifinals of the German Bundesliga playoffs.
Frazier averaged 7.7 points on 37.7 percent shooting, including 28.9 percent from 3-point range, with 3.7 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.1 steals in 24.4 minutes per game.
Frazier helped Goettingen to the 2010 EuroChallenge title, averaging 20.4 minutes in 31 games played. He averaged 5.9 points on 50.6 percent shooting, including 34.2 percent from 3-point range, with 3.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game.
"I am incredibly excited to become a part of the Kansas State family," Frazier said in a the same release. "Coaching is my passion and I am looking forward to getting to work and to help build a winning culture here at K-State, along with the rest of the staff."
Prior to his stint in Germany, Frazier served as a graduate assistant and video coordinator for Weber at Illinois from 2010-11. He helped the Fighting Illini to a 20-win season and an appearance in the NCAA tournament in 2010-11. He resigned midway through his second year to resume his playing career in Germany.
Frazier was a four-year lettermen and two-time captain for the Illini from 2005-09, playing all four seasons for Weber. Known for being a hard-nose point guard, he helped Illinois to 89 wins, including three 20-win seasons, and three trips to the NCAA tournament during his career.
Frazier played 125 games with 88 starts in his career, averaging 4.9 points on 35.9 percent shooting with 4.1 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.0 steals in 28.5 minutes per game.
Frazier still ranks seventh all-time at Illinois in career assists (484) and ninth in career assists per game (3.9 apg.). He ranks just outside the top 10 in minutes played (3,566).

DJ Suss-One TFP Music News: Kelly Roawland And Hubby Are Having A Baby Boy!
R&B singer, Kelly Rowland slipped up in a recent interview and revealed that she is having a baby boy! The news came out when she referred to her unborn child and a "he." Once she realized her slip-up, she gave in and made it official.
"We're very excited," Kelly said. "So far, everything has been good. I just feel like the baby is already rotten–like literally, my Caress family has gotten him all of his little bathing stuff, his toys–it's just so cool.It, it's…aw, f--k it! It's a boy. It's a boy!"
She was sure to make sure her hubby/ manger was aware that she told the world about their bundle of joy. She immediately turned to her rep, asking call to her husband.
"Can you please tell him that I spilled the beans?" When she spoke to him she was apologetic. "I'm sorry, baby," she said.
"But yes, it's very exciting."

Make your own map with Insight Genesis
by Estelle Baldry - Navico on 20 Nov 2012
Insight Genesis showing usergenerated contour lines as viewed on HDS Gen2 Touch Navico
Lowrance, a world-leading brand in marine electronics, has announced a revolutionary personal map generation tool, Insight Genesis™. Insight Genesis is a powerful online service, which empowers boaters to create custom contour maps of their favourite fishing and boating grounds.
Insight Genesis uses sonar recordings taken from Broadband Sounder and StructureScan transducers connected to Lowrance HDS™ Gen2 Touch Multifunction Displays and creates detailed maps. Whether mapping previously uncharted waters or ensuring surveyed water details are accurate and current, Insight Genesis delivers a new level of personal cartography and situational awareness for boaters.
Designed for use in both salt and freshwater environments, Insight Genesis transforms the Lowrance HDS Gen2 Touch charting experience. To create free custom maps, a boater simply activates the standard sonar logging feature of their HDS Gen2 Touch multifunction display to record all subsequent sonar data to an SD card. Once recorded, a PC application is used to upload the sonar log file to the Insight Genesis online cloud-based service, where it is converted into a map.
Once complete, a notification is sent via email that the chart is available for review online. Boaters can then view the chart and related sonar log for free in an embedded web viewer, they are also given the option to purchase a download of the personalised map for use on a compatible multifunction display. Downloads of the Insight Genesis maps are available to boaters individually or through an annual subscription service.
Leif Ottosson, CEO of Lowrance said: 'Insight Genesis brings an exciting new level of functionality to Lowrance HDS Gen2 Touch users. Boaters can create their own charts to complement supported Navionics® cartography options.
'Whether using Insight Genesis to refine existing details due to shifting sand bars, recent dredging, to mark an uncharted rock, or for creating charts of bodies of water that have not previously been surveyed, Insight Genesis is the key to getting the most up-to-date specifics of on water areas, anytime and anywhere.'
The Insight Genesis service offers four options for viewing and downloading personalised maps, the basic service and web viewer are free. Individuals have the option to purchase a download of their free map in any of three ways:
1. A single map download that includes pre-set contours, depth soundings and depth shading which can be used on a single registered device
2. A standard one year subscription that adds the ability to adjust contour intervals, merge multiple uploads into a single map and save maps in an online account for future retrieval. It also increases the length of recording that can be submitted per upload from two to four hours and boosts the number of licensed devices on which the downloaded map can be viewed from two to four units
3. A premium one year subscription that adds the ability to overlay bottom hardness and vegetation outline layers and analyse changes over multiple recordings with trend analysis tools. It also increases the number of registered devices on which the map can be viewed from four to six.
All downloaded Insight Genesis maps can be saved on SD cards for use in the card reader slot on a compatible registered Lowrance chartplotter or multifunction device.
An incredibly powerful tool, the Insight Genesis cloud-based server provides boaters a convenient, secure location to store trips and maps, as well as the ability to merge multiple data files into larger maps, without having to save and manage data on a personal computer. Data can be recorded and saved during multiple boating trips giving the ability to build a map over time to increase the map's coverage and quality. In addition, the Insight Genesis free web viewer allows individuals to review Broadband Sounder and DownScan sonar logs, to view their trails and corresponding maps overlaid on a satellite map.
The Insight Genesis website will be available in November and will generate maps compatible with the new Lowrance HDS Gen2 Touch multifunction displays.
Support for Lowrance HDS Gen 2 and selected Elite systems is expected in early 2013. One-time map purchase, standard subscription and premium subscription are priced at US$19.95/download, US$99.95/year and US$299.95/year each, respectively.

The earthquake that struck Northern California early Sunday morning sent many local residents stumbling from their beds and scrambling for steady ground. How many? You can get good sense of all this nocturnal movement from an unexpected source: wearable fitness trackers that measure the sleeping patterns of the people who wear them.
The Jawbone UP can gauge nighttime tossing and turning in an effort to tell how well people sleep. On Sunday, Jawbone data scientists aggregated data from UP users based on location to visualize thousands of people waking up at once when the Napa quake hit. The spike, pictured in the chart above, doesn't look that different from the jump on a seismograph when the shockwave from a temblor goes coursing through the ground.
Some have joked that a chart demonstrating that an earthquake wakes lots of people up isn't exactly providing a major new insight. But Jawbone's graph does offer an interesting means of thinking about an earthquake's impact.
Did You Feel It?
The U.S. Geological Survey website offers a way for anyone to report that they felt a quake, data that scientists (and the media) use to track just how far a quake has traveled. But as a reporter who used to cover a lot of earthquakes for The Associated Press, some of that self-reported data can start to feel a little suspect.
The Napa quake was strong, but I'm skeptical of the claims that four people felt it in Portland, Oregon. The Jawbone data, meanwhile, shows that 93 percent of UP users within 15 miles of the quake's epicenter woke up, while just a little more than half of users in San Francisco and Oakland, several more miles away, were awakened by the shaking.
Expanding the circle even further from the epicenter, a steadily shrinking percentage of people were startled awake, by the UP's measurements at least. This data starts to feel like a more objective measure of who really felt the quake.
Yes, it's limited to a self-selecting pool of people who wear an UP. But the more people who start using wearable tech, the more windows we'll have on collective experiences that we didn't have before. If only there was a way that the spread of all these sensors could help predict quakes before they woke everyone up in the first place.Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

No one is going to "prosecute" a criminal matter because you claim the billing was fraudulent. This is a civil matter and sounds like a fee dispute between a lawyer and his/her client.
If you believe the lawyer has acting in some unaccpetable way you can file a complaint with the FL state court (attorney disciplinary committee- call the FL State Bar for help with this). You can also request fee arbitration in most states which is essentailly a hearing where they can determine whether the lawyer has a legal right to pursue damages for non-payment.
If the lawyer has already claimed fees that you believe they have no right to, you are also free to file your own action in court (perhaps the small claims court if less than 10K). But again in some states a fee arbitration is required before the court will hear the case.
Lastly, you can cannot a FL malpractice lawyer to discuss all your options as well.

You did not answer my question.
Any office with the authority to prosecute a criminal matter can bring charges. So you can go to any the offices you noted above. They will tell you what we all have told you however. Good luck!
There is likely no criminal cause of action, it would simply be a civil cause of action, though each case is different. The first person you should discuss the billing with is the attorney. Perhaps her billing assistant forgot to the carry the two and that's why the invoice looked a little high, or whatever the dispute is. Nobody is in a better position to justify the billing and provide an itemized billing invoice than the attorney, so start there. Law is pretty complex, that's why you hired an attorney in the first place, so perhaps there is justification for the time spent, or when the attorney reviews the time spent she wants to adjust it herself. There are many possible outcomes that all stem from you politely and respectfully making an inquiry with the attorney.
Best of luck
There is NO attorney-client privilege based on this interaction. I am NOT your attorney. Further, everything we both just wrote is publicly available on the internet and would be the same as if we were talking in a crowded restaurant. If you need legal assistance use Avvo to find a local attorney in your jurisdiction that you feel can best represent your interests as a zealous advocate. My experience is in corporate tax, white collar criminal defense, partnership tax, and tax controversy/litigation. If you're being audited by the IRS or state taxing authority, or you are taking an unusually risky tax position on a return, that is the kind of thing you should have experienced counsel on your side and we can set up an initial consultation. If you have a family law, debt collection, violent crime sort of issue then I do not handle that. Do not contact me for an initial consultation on non-tax matters.Ask a similar question
You are the third attorney who has not answered my question. I really hope that Avvo will start paying attention to the sort of "answers" that are being given.
No one is going to prosecute an attorney for what you described as "fraudulent billing."
If it is truly "fraudulent" you could file a grievance with the Florida Bar.
Most likely you have a fee disagreement which needs to resolve through civil litigation. But why don't you try to communicate with your lawyer and ask about what you think is "fraudulent."
This is a summary based on incomplete facts. You should not rely on it as legal advise. No attorney-client relationship is intended to be formed.Ask a similar question

There is nobody to go to to prosecute this matter, because it is not a crime.

Riots hit the town of Abepura when the body of Thomas Wapai Wainggai, who died last week while serving a prison sentence in Jakarta, arrived in the provincial capital, Jayapura, for burial. "They burned cars and a market and damaged buildings," a spokesman said.
Residents said Jayapura, 2,000 miles east of Jakarta, was sealed off by the military. Offices were shut and frightened residents stayed indoors.
The riots broke out in Abepura after protesters were stopped from heading to Jayapura, 12 miles away. Residents and the army said last night that calm had returned but soldiers continued to patrol.
"Tension has reduced but the military is still keeping a watchful eye. There have been no reports of arrests or casualties," an army officer said by telephone from Jayapura.
An official at the Jayapura general hospital said that there were some injuries but there no reports of deaths.
Residents said the riots, by 300-400 people, were linked to Wainggai, who was sentenced to 20 years in jail for proclaiming an independent Melanesian state in Irian during a flag-raising ceremony in 1987.
Seventy people, along with Wainggai, were tried for subversion and in 1988 were jailed for between six and 20 years. Wainggai, a US-trained anthropologist said to have died of heart problems on the way to a hospital from Cipinang prison, just outside Jakarta, was believed to be in his sixties.
His Japanese wife was sentenced to six years in jail and has since been released, but 21 others are still in detention.
Residents said the rioters, mostly students, wanted to take Wainggai's body to the university before it was taken to his family home. "He was a teacher at the university and they wanted to take him there before he was buried," one resident said.
Last week the Irian towns of Timika and Tembagapura, where Freeport Indonesia operates one of the world's largest copper and gold mines, were rocked by riots by disgruntled tribespeople frustrated at not benefiting from the development in Irian.
Diplomats said Wainggai was believed to have had close links with the separatist Free Papua Movement (OPM), which is fighting for an independent Irian Jaya. OPM rebels have been holding 11 hostages, including six Europeans, in the forbidding jungles of Irian since 8 January.

When the strange Nightmare had disappeared, Spink peeped out from behind Silver. Although he hated to admit it, the experience had scared him and he was grateful for Silver's presence. As well as that of his Blade. Even though something told him it would have been next to useless against this creature, it was still comforting to see something sharp and dangerous between him and it.
"What... what was that?" he whispered, looking up at his leader, eyes wide and scared.
Silver was still staring after the Nightmare and didn't answer him until Spink tugged hard at his arm. When he seemed to come back to reality, he shook his head, as if to shake the memory out of his mind. Much to Spink's dismay, the only reply he gave was a shrug of his shoulders.
"I wish I could answer that Spink, I really wish I could. But I can tell you this, something bad is going on up here. We'll have to be more careful, this could be nasty. Come on, let's get out of here. Those other Nightmares'll catch our scent soon enough, we'd best be out of here before they come back."
With that the two turned and raced off through the dark, Spink sprinting to keep up with Silver's long strides. His mind was whirling, overloaded with information and strange revelations. He shuddered, Silver was right. Something was going on surfaceside.
Spink had the feeling that this wouldn't be the last they saw of that Silent.

Hunt ban tramples on a thousand years of English tradition
Hunt ban tramples on a thousand years of English tradition
Sir: Thank you for publishing the letter from David Dear ("Hunt celebrates life", 25 January). He is absolutely right.
Early in December, I had the opportunity to go out with the Fernie of Leicestershire. On that day, I rode over some of the most beautiful countryside I have ever seen, the ancestral home of my mother's family. I had hired a wonderful horse, a mare of such quality and excellent training that I felt unworthy of her. It was so utterly moving to hunt in the country that I consider my second home, I found myself near tears.
I've never seen ordinary people ride with such courage and skill. The hunt followers, both on foot and on horseback, were hugely welcoming and friendly. Even the threat of an impending ban on an activity so central to their livelihood did not take the smiles from their faces.
Many who are in favour of the UK hunting ban will argue that foxhunting dates back only about 300 years. The truth is that your people have been hunting with hounds across the centuries. Your foxhounds are descended from animals brought during the Norman Conquest. Your hunters have been bred from crosses of ancient native British stock with the thoroughbred. The latter is a gorgeous creature, a work of art, created by the English. The hedgerows over which the hunt rides date back to Saxon times.
The right to hunt is not a priviege held by the wealthy élite. It's part of who you are as Britons; please preserve it. The ban is a smack in the face to the people who built the country, fought and died for it, and for five hundred years made it the richest and most influential nation in the world.
The hunting ban is very obviously motivated by class jealousy and cultural self-hatred disguised as compassion. It's a revenge law written by people who harbour a horror of the man on horseback.
On 19 February, I will think of the hunt staffs, followers and supporters, and be cheering for them. I urge them to fight honourably and hard in the war against the loss of their freedom. And I fully expect to return to England to hunt foxes again.

Now we must get the troops out of Iraq
Sir: I hope we do not further cynically betray the bravery Iraqis showed in going to the polls by not challenging the fate for the Middle East mapped by the neo-conservatives and implemented by the White House.
Democracy is meant to provide representative government and one aspiration shared by the under-represented Sunni community and the Shia is the rapid removal of coalition troops from Iraq. It is interesting how much effort is going into our government's allegation that it is best not to give a date for withdrawal, given the continuing construction of at least 12 of the planned 14 permanent US military bases in Iraq.
The main cause of the insurgency is the presence of US and British troops. For the Shia to draw Sunni support and avoid civil war, the shared Shia and Sunni aspiration for a rapid withdrawal of occupation forces must be met. This alone can legitimise the new government for the Sunni community and de-legitimise armed revolt.
My last communication with Iraqi friends, made while working on reconstruction in Baghdad, revealed that they were all afraid of what the future held and most wanted to leave the country. The neo-con inspired US national security doctrine of 2002 that led to invasion of Iraq is still in place, and the deliberate destabilisation or invasion of Iran and Syria will plunge the Middle East into further gratuitous war, spawning more support for Wahabi terrorism.
For Iraq, for British national security, British voters' choice is to vote against Blair in May - or for him and therefore for more bloodshed in the Middle East.
Dr STEPHEN PALMER
Cheadle, Greater Manchester
Sir: We hear that the next step on Iraq's road to democracy is a written constitution. When they've achieved this, perhaps they could nip over and help us to acquire one, and while they're about it, do something about the Royal Prerogative which the Prime Minister exercises. Or would this take an invasion?
Totnes, Devon
Blame for Darfur
Sir: I read your front page on Darfur (26 January) with growing amazement. I had thought the villains of the piece were perhaps the Janjaweed militia or the Sudanese government, the ones raping and bombing and killing. Or perhaps Russia and China, who promise to veto any Security Council resolution threatening sanctions.
But instead, I read at length that the real villains are, as ever, the Americans. Admittedly, they have recognised genocide and pushed for action through the UN, but have a "right-wing agenda" which Britain must "stand up to".
You may have found the key issue. Perhaps the killing would stop tomorrow if the rulers in Khartoum thought they were facing justice in the International Criminal Court instead of a special tribunal. Then again, perhaps not.
Sir: in reading Anne Penketh's excellent article on the atrocities of genocide, I am beset by three very severe frustrations. First, as Ms Penketh notes, the international response to these atrocities moves with the speed of a snail running through cold molasses. Second, there is no real-time accountability within the UN that would inspire its members to proceed with alacrity.
The third and deepest frustration is how to enable such accountability within the current structure of the UN. We need the UN, but we need it to be a much more responsive and responsible international body that can intervene legally and quickly before there are more Holocausts, Rwandas, or Darfurs.
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA
Suicide danger
Sir: I have great sympathy for Claire Seeber and her sister in having to deal with depression and suicide attempts by her father ("Happy pills", 25 January). The article was well balanced as it did highlight the fact that a variety of treatments are available for depression and what suits one person may not suit another.
Although there are many antidepressants on the market, they all alter brain chemistry and as we are all individuals, this fundamental effect may not always be to return the patient to "normal". Drugs are not yet as sophisticated as we need them to be, but in the absence of easily accessible supportive emotional or psychological therapy, antidepressants are a logical "first aid" and a GP could just as easily be criticised for doing nothing if a patient presents with depression.
Another factor which seems to be overlooked when linking antidepressants to suicidal ideation is the fact that a deeply depressed person does not have the motivation to eat, dress, do anything - even to kill themself. The dangerous time is often when the antidepressants "kick in" and the patient begins to muster the energy to do something to end their misery. Although it does appear that the SSRI drugs are linked with a higher suicide rate, this could be because they are more effective at lifting mood and are better tolerated by the people taking them.

Surgical 'quick fix'
Sir: Changing Faces, the national charity which supports and represents people who have disfigurements to the face and body, welcomes the Government's commitment to tighten the regulation of cosmetic surgery and, in particular, its determination to improve the clinical advice given and to broaden the public information available (report, 24 January).
The aggressive marketing techniques currently used to promote cosmetic surgery suggest it is just another form of beauty enhancement, when actually all the procedures carry risk. What is worse, such marketing may actually encourage people to feel insecure about the way they look and suggest that physical perfection, supposedly achieved through cosmetic surgery, is the quick-fix recipe for success and happiness.
Changing Faces is constantly contacted by people of all ages and with various types of disfigurement, including those for whom cosmetic surgery has failed, who find the hyperbole associated with cosmetic surgery neither honest nor helpful.

The feminine form
Sir: Sad to read the stock response of Debora Williams to Beverly Mayle's complaint (letter, 29 January). Of course, I agree that there is no need for barristers and surgeons to be distinguished by their sex but, because of actresses' misguided attempts to be taken as seriously as the male of the species, employers who need to indicate which roles are for men and which for women now feel obliged to advertise for "male and female actors". There is something reminiscent of laboratory rats in this phrase, as far removed as one can get from the messy creativity of the theatre.
Aesthetics apart, we cannot ignore the fact that show business is still dominated by men and that in most produced new plays and films women are relegated to the "sex interest". There is also the small matter of massive wage differentials between male and female performers.
The word "actress" is not, as Debora Williams claims, a "fatuous and insulting" diminutive, but conjures up those gifted, alluring and exciting creatures of the 17th and 18th centuries who fought with spirit and courage to overcome Puritan prejudices about women on the stage. I'd far rather be associated with those true feminists than label myself an "actor", knowing I haven't quite as much clout as my male counterpart.
London SW11
Sir: The actor/actress question (letters, 31 January) derives from a mistaken belief that feminine forms are somehow inferior. Yet prince and princess, widow and widower, even king and queen, show this is by no means the case.
As a self-appointed but ardent male feminist I would implore the sisters to lay off this sort of linguistic interference. Feminine forms are distinctive in themselves. In general additions of this kind are a sign of respect and even reverence, as with prefixes such as Sir and Lord, or suffixes like OBE, JP or even MP. Do not masculinise. For that means that the male forms, and the men, are intrinsically preferable - which we all know to be rubbish.
London SW6
Pig publicity
Sir: I have no idea whether the two New Labour poster designs had antisemitic intent (although at least one, I feel, steers pretty close to the foul wind). And naturally they will never run.
Much more interesting is your comment (MediaWeekly, 31 January) regarding TBWA chairman and creative director Trevor Beattie: "Beattie however remains undeterred, believing that the publicity generated by a campaign is as important as the campaign itself."
Now, thanks to the inevitable media furore, everyone is aware that the Tory party has a Jewish leader and a Jewish shadow Chancellor. Whatever one's politics, one could hope such facts would be of no relevance to any member of our electorate. One could also hope that pigs might fly.
Pinner, Middlesex
Short-term advantage
Sir: Hilary Power (letter, 31 January) considers that legislation is needed to enforce behaviour change if CO 2 emissions are to be reduced. If a political party were to say: "Vote for us and we'll massively increase petrol tax to safeguard the future for your children and their children", how many votes do you think they would win?
Chesham, Buckinghamshire
Forgotten victims
Sir: The coverage of the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz has been powerful and moving, but it has largely overlooked the slaughter of disabled people by the Nazis in the death camps. It is estimated that 200,000 disabled people were killed for no other reason than because they were different. Disabled people such as myself were regarded by the Nazis as "useless eaters". The commemorations should offer a timely reminder of the absolute necessity to continue to strive towards tolerance and equality in our society.
Head of External Policy, Leonard Cheshire, London SW1
Children of conflict
Sir: The diary story ("btw", 29 January) about Janet Street-Porter receiving an inappropriate response when she wanted the word "sorry" reminded me of a question set for 11-plus pupils in Northern Ireland in the early Seventies. Candidates were asked to add a three-letter word to the sentence "The _ _ _y is looking for her husband", so that it made sense, the expected answer being "lad". However, given the benighted state of Northern Ireland at that time, in many areas children thought that "arm" was the required answer. Needless to say, they were given the mark.
Weak words
Sir: I find it strange that the BBC, warning me of the foul language in Jerry Springer - The Opera, should refer to it as "strong language". Using the word "fuck" seven times in one sentence can only weaken it.
St Leonards on Sea, East Sussex
Passenger alarm
Sir: On Saturday, after a ringtone, my fellow passengers and I heard a voice answer: "I'm driving a bus." Fortunately, no apples were visible.

Balto is an animated trifle, based loosely on a true story from the 1920s, that may offer some amusement for young children. A live-action intro and outro set the stage for the story of Balto (voiced by Kevin Bacon), a stray who's half dog and half wolf, who is shunned as a half-breed outcast by both humans and his own kind. Balto does have some friends, like the goose Boris (Bob Hoskins) and two polar bears named Muk and Luk (Phil Collins), but he is particularly resented by canine pack leader Steele (Jim Cummings), with whom he is competing for the affections of Jenna (Bridget Fonda). He eventually becomes a hero when he guides a medication-carrying sled to a townful of sick kids in the wilds of Alaska. The film features a number of positive messages (subtlety is not its strong point), but it may not feature enough humor or excitement to keep anyone but the very smallest viewers engrossed. ~ Don Kaye, Rovi

Started reading an article about something that was a surprise, although after the last plastic surgery article, not sure why.
Plastic surgeons have been doing hair transplants for years, first introduced as help for burn victims and later, men and women with thinning hair. Well now, if you have thinning EYEBROWS, you too can join the throng rushing to plastic surgeon clinics all around the country.
The procedure involves transplanting hair from the nape of the neck or leg to the brows. This hair has the same texture and growth cycle as the eyebrows, making them blend naturally. The process that takes up to four hours because hundreds of hairs have to be added individually. After looking around on the internet to gather information about this subject, It was found it could take anywhere between 250-800 + "treatments" depending on how sparse the eyebrows.
Fashion News Live can't verify if Frida Kahlo, on one of her many trips to Paris, experienced a "Transplant gone bad" or if she is, in fact, " … not only the Hair Club president… but also a client"

Home › Forums › Gear Forums › Gear (General) › I returned my Steripen
May 18, 2012 at 1:46 pm #1290058
I had been somewhat satisfied with my Steripen Adventurer Opti
On my last trip, I didn't take any extra batteries. The batteries in it had treated 8 pints of water. They say a set of batteries is good for 100 pints. The previous set of batteries I used treated 28 pints.
Anyway, the Steripen didn't work at all. It wasn't very cold or anything.
I made the decision that Steripen just isn't reliable enough. If I had carried an extra set of batteries I would have been okay though.
Since I bought it at REI 1.5 years ago, I returned it.
I bought a Sawyer Squeeze.
I think that will work better.May 18, 2012 at 1:53 pm #1879032

The Opti always looks tempting (blue light=cool). Then I remember AM drops seem convenient enough for me. Or drinking raw water, if I'm sure of the source.May 18, 2012 at 3:12 pm #1879051

@johndLocale: CO
I've had one for a year or so, and I still really like it. It has been reliable and basically meets all my requirements for water purification in a relatively light, compact package.
While I agree that their stated efficiency of 50 quarts on a pair of batteries is quite optimistic, I've generally treated about 40 before needing to replace the batteries. AM drops are fine if I'm alone, but the steripen is great for groups.May 18, 2012 at 5:13 pm #1879086

@bcrowellLocale: Southern California
The steripen used to have a poor reputation for reliability on the AT and PCT, but they switched from electrodes to optical sensors, and that's supposed to be a lot better now.
It may depend on where you hike, but in many areas (e.g., the Sierra), the need for treating backcountry water is basically a myth. If water treatment is a placebo, then it doesn't really matter whether you have a reliable placebo or an unreliable one.

What batteries are you using?May 18, 2012 at 6:19 pm #1879101
Bob GrossMember
@b-g-2-2Locale: Silicon Valley
"What batteries are you using?"
That was my question, exactly.
Lots of people take the first batteries that they find and use them in a device like this, and they don't know if they are new, used, or failed. Lots of batteries in the marketplace have been sitting on the shelf too long, and they have undergone self-discharge. In a few cases, they've completely failed. You see that more in the El Cheapo brands that somebody bought for cheap on eBay. Even good brand-name batteries can fail early, although it is a little unusual.
Whenever I purchase new batteries, I put a meter on them, and if I measure anything out of the ordinary, they get set aside for some unimportant purpose or else discard them at the battery disposal place.
Last week I had a bunch of AA alkaline batteries that had been sitting around for six months. I measured the voltage on each one, and I saw 1.54, 1.55, 1.55, 1.55, 1.56, and 1.91. Guess which one got thrown out? All of the normal ones had normal short circuit amperage available, and 1.91 showed just about zero.
–B.G.–May 18, 2012 at 8:50 pm #1879131
First I used rechargeable batteries and they only treated a pint or two before failing.
Then I got 6 Energizers
The first 2 treated 28 pints before failing
The next 2 treated 8 pints before failing
I have heard a lot of people that have had success. I could have bought another set of batteries. I bought mine from Amazon. They had printed "1110A". Maybe that's a date code?
All the batteries were 3.25V when new. the 4 I used were 3.05V after treating 8 pints. The first 2 gradually went down to 3.01V when they failed. The second 2 failed when they were 3.05 V.
All the batteries are Lithium.
Also, especially when it's cold it's really hard to get the button pushed.
If I was going international where viruses are a problem, I'd make the Steripen work. I'd make sure and have plenty of spare batteries.
The Sawyer Squeeze is a bit lighter and doesn't have any batteries or electronics. I think I'll try that instead.May 18, 2012 at 8:55 pm #1879132
I drink untreated water a lot and question if this all isn't irrational fear.
But there are some stories of people that got sick and verified they had Giardia, although it's impossible to know for sure they got it from drinking untreated water.
I keep wondering when I'm swirling the Steripen around that maybe it's not really doing anything, and I could just stir it around with anything with the same effectiveness.May 18, 2012 at 9:33 pm #1879137

I had bad luck with Energizer lithium batteries in my Steripen. They just didn't work well. Switched to a different brand and have had much fewer issues.May 18, 2012 at 10:39 pm #1879150
"I had bad luck with Energizer lithium batteries in my Steripen…"
First, you guys said my rechargeable batteries were no good, I have to get brand name
Okay, I got Energizer, aren't they brand name?
Now, you say, no, not that brand, you need a different brand name
Forget about it! I'm going to use the Sawyer…
(Just kidding – like I said, I could make it work if I wanted to. Maybe that batch wasn't good. Whatever…)May 18, 2012 at 10:52 pm #1879155

The product is just really unreliable. For every one that a person uses for a whole year there are four people whose units fail within a month.
I want this to be good so badly! I want to like Steripens and only use them, but I just don't feel they're trustworthy.May 19, 2012 at 12:07 am #1879168

Yeah. I've had this conversation before. I ended up with a Sawyer.
It seems like if your Steripen works, it works well. If it doesn't, well, fingers crossed. Basically I don't want to have to worry about batteries, weak lamps, cloudy water, etc.. I don't hike anywhere where I need to worry about viruses, which is the Steripen's big advantage over the Sawyer. So as far as I can tell, it's all cons once the virus concern is eliminated.May 19, 2012 at 2:19 am #1879172

Jerry, yeah I am guessing you don't flip the batteries. I do this every watering hole. Even somewhat cloudy water is fine if it is treated twice. Like anything else, with an electronic switch, there is a delay for it to register the button press. It registers the change in current as an instruction to do something. Flipping the batteries will preserve them by reming ALL current drain. It takes 15-30 seconds to reinitialize the on board computer, though the lights are on. The button didn't seem to work. I don't usually notice it. But a couple times, I was trying to be efficient and did this step last. Again, it didn't work. I tried a couple times… I confirmed that this was the case at home. It took about 15sec at 65F. I am guessing somewhat longer in the cold fall weather. I am guessing there might also be differences in gadgets, too.
Being a simple device I would expect faster response from the thing. But, because it reinitializes, you cannot press the botton during this time. It will confuse it and seem to fail. Remove the batteries for a half minute, put them back in and wait.
As far as consumption goes, I get about 5-8 pints out of a set of rechargables. Unacceptable. For lithium batteries (and the hugher voltage) I get about 35-40 pints. There is a difference between the stated ~50 liters and actual usage. I have NEVER gotten more than 40 uses. 20% is a lot…but, it is closer to 50 than 0, I am fairly sure that is their advertising people with rounded numbers playing "SELL IT, SELL IT…" to eachother with QC taking the hit.
I do not personnaly feel that tis is a true problem. I do not believe most advertising, or, expect less because they lie. So, your course of action is a good one. Return it if it doesn't meet spec. Demand another. Then, in turn return it if it doesn't meet spec…really. Unless you can afford a big shot lawer and have spare dollars to burn, Spending $5 on shipping will be the only thing you can do.
That said, I like the UV for short trips. The packaging and electronics really SUCKS. But, the mUV is no better. It has minor issues(battery charge) and is subject to breakage. Just hook it up to a battery after ten or twenty liters…it will report charging all day, but work fine. ???May 19, 2012 at 7:30 am #1879203
I think older units had problems with leakage – you have to flip one of the batteries to prevent. Newer Steripens are supposed to be better.
Of my 6 batteries:
The first 2 I left in the Steripen for about a year un-flipped. They treated 28 pints. Maybe if I had flipped them between uses they would have done a few more.
The second 2 batteries I carried around with me for a year, in a plastic bag with misc. stuff. Occasionally it got a bit damp, but just barely. Then I put them in the Steripen and treated 8 pints. Left them in Steripen for about a month. Then they didn't work.
The third 2 are sitting here – 3.26 volts.
The button, I think, is engineered to not come on accidentally, so it's hard to activate. I think it's harder when it's cold. Maybe it's that my fingers are cold so not as good at pushing. I think someone with a little Arthritis or whatever would find this a problem.
Like I've said, I'm not totally down on Steripen.
The Sawyer Squeeze is much better, but they say you can't let it get below freezing which is a problem. Maybe they're being overly conservative.May 19, 2012 at 9:41 am #1879240

I've tried a couple and wasn't impressed. Stuff needs to work, plain and simple and more so at the price of these devices. So it's back to a Sawyer filter and/or chlorine dioxide and waiting.May 19, 2012 at 10:05 am #1879246
Not exactly "apples to apples", but my SteriPEN Traveler shows 0.0 (zero) milliamp discharge in the "off" mode, when measured with my Fluke 179 MM, with a resolution of 0.01 mA. Absolutely zero discharge while off.
Does anybody know factually what the PEN folks say about the need for battery reversal/discharge on their units?
Has anybody actually measured the leakage current in the off mode?
I currently have DURACELL ULTRA CR123A LITHIUMs which open-voltage at 3.06V…and the PEN works fine.
Jerry, I'm not saying yours doesn't: I'm just adding a data point.May 19, 2012 at 10:48 am #1879255
Actually 3.06 V is consistent with my data : )
One set of batteries failed when they got down to 3.05 V
The other set failed when they got down to 3.01 V
This is open voltage after they rested for many days. I assume the voltage graduall increases a little after you use it.May 19, 2012 at 11:02 am #1879259
Jerry the rapid drop that you are observing in your CR123s, from approx 3.3 => 3.0 is typical and OK. Not a sign of a bad battery. You can see on the nominal discharge curve below for a CR123 that what you are observing is OK, and typical.
I sure wish somebody has some hard numbers….or the PEN folks enter the discussion.May 19, 2012 at 11:52 am #1879265
over about 8 months, batteries were in Steripen the whole time:
3.25 V new
treated 4 pints
treated 7 pints
treated 8 pints
treated 8 pints
3.25 V new
treated 8 pints
failed – batteries were in Steripen for about 1 monthMay 19, 2012 at 3:57 pm #1879314

Hi Jerry
First of all, do NOT leave batteries in a modern device for months on end if you are not using it. The electronics always draw power and drain the batteries. Older mechanically switched units were OK, but not modern ones. So much for 'progress'.
Yes, this means that most of the battery power you paid for was wasted at home. WASTED.
Second, since you got very different lives out of the two sets of batteries, this may reflect differing battery qualities. We KNOW that applies to the CR123 batteries: they ccome with different current ratings. Only the really good brands with high current ratings should be used in the Steripen.

"First of all, do NOT leave batteries in a modern device for months on end if you are not using it. The electronics always draw power and drain the batteries."
*Why?*, you may ask.
Lots of modern electronic devices leave one circuit on all the time, and this may be for instant-on help, memory, or a half-dozen different functions. In a well-designed device, this always-on power drain is very small, but it is not zero. So, leaving the battery in for a few days is no big deal. Leaving the battery in for months may get poor results.
Lots of modern electronic devices use a very small circuit board where the battery leads attach with all of the fancy parts. If you leave the battery attached for a long time, a small voltage is present across the two points where the battery attaches to the circuit board. If the circuit board was inadequately and cheaply cleaned during fabrication (using impure water), traces of metal salts are left on the surface. When the battery voltage sits there for a long time, a tiny conductive path 'grows' there, and this causes the device to appear failed or wonky or highly destructive of batteries. You can't really see what is going on unless you get in there with a microscope, but if you see little 'crystalline tree branches,' then that is it. Once the manufacturer sees a high percentage of field failures being returned, sometimes they wise up. By then, the circuit board fabricator is long gone, and everybody is left with a bad feeling. Some of the better companies hire more dependable circuit board fabricators, and there is no problem. It probably doesn't hurt to store batteries loose and outside of the device.

Rick advised: "First of all, do NOT leave batteries in a modern device for months on end if you are not using it. The electronics always draw power and drain the batteries."
And risk damage from leakage. I cut a piece of thin plastic or paper to slide under the lid so I could leave the batteries in without a complete circuit, so I wouldn't forget them or lose them in the depths of my pack.
It seems so simple to have a switch for storage if discharge is an issue. I have had a number of cameras with date functions that ran on main CR123 battery and could go for long periods without discharging it. They wouldn't go forever, of course. I have few problems with the other devices I use and I don't understand why SteriPen can't pull it off.

Cara: Making the Last Days CountMature
I crept in to the bedroom, half hoping Sam would be asleep. But she was up in bed, reading, and as I walked through the door she put the book down and looked seriously at me.
"How was your walk?"
"Fine. I went to see Anna."
She froze momentarily and then shook her new frown off.
"How is she?"
"Alright. Thinks the sun shines from your arse."
She smiled in spite of herself.
"Well, you can't deny the truth." I rolled my eyes and pulled off my top to get ready for bed. "Cara, are you still mad? Because I love you, but I love my job too. I can't just give it up..."
"I know." I stood, hands on hips and chewed my lip. "I'm just bummed that you're going away for so long."
"So am I."
"I know. But you have something to do... I'm just... here."
"Well, why don't you go home for a bit? Students normally do in the summer..."
"Yeah well... I don't really want to go home."
"Why not?"
"As soon as I go back it'll be 'do this, do that' and I really don't feel up to it at the moment."
"As apposed to me ordering you around?" She winked.
"You don't order me around. I do everything here quite happily."
"I know and you're an angel for it."
I smiled, relenting on the whole situation.
"Ok, so I'll just stay and find that job I wanted."
"Yes. Can I kiss you now?"
"That depends." I grinned.
"On what?"
"On where you're going to kiss me." She smirked and pulled the covers off, shuffling to the end of the bed and throwing her legs over to sit on the side.
"Come here."
I bit my lip and took a step towards her, grinning. She reached out a hand and hooked it in to the waistband of my jeans, pulling me suddenly closer. She kissed my stomach, grinning up at me as her tongue dipped in to my navel. I stilled, grinning, running my hands through her hair to hold the sides of her head. I leaned down and kissed her lips, pulling her up to me.
"Thought I was...the one... in control." She murmured jokingly between kisses.
"Not tonight hot shot."
"Mmmm... Somehow I don't think I'm going to mind."
I chuckled and kissed her again, pulling up the edge of her pj top and then stepping back to pull it all the way up.
"Lift up your arms." I ordered, grinning.
"No." She answered, the corners of her lips curving in to an amused smile, her eyes sparkling with mischief.
"Lift them." I grinned, taking them and trying to get her to put them up.
"No." She stuck her tongue out. I raised my eye brow, grinning in mock indignation.
"Oh really?" I pushed her back on to the bed, her mouth opening in to a surprised little 'o' of amused surprise. Then, slowly, I unbuttoned my jeans and slid them tauntingly down my legs, stepping out of them and kicking them away. She sat up on her elbows and watched, grinning, as I unhooked my bra and dangled that from my fingers in front of her before throwing that over to the side as well.
"Oh baby." She moaned as I straddled her.
"Now let me take your top off." I quietened her, reaching again for the top. This time she let me, putting her arms up so I could pull the top up and off her. I grinned down at her breasts and her lips, and her eyes...
"Now what baby?" She asked, leaning forward and grazing my nipples with her teeth.
"Now..." I lost my train of thought as she played with my breasts. "Now... fuuuck..." I moaned.
"As you wish." She grinned.
"So if you're only here for two more days, does that mean you have to work those days as well or..." I asked, sipping the tea she had brought me. The sunlight was streaming through our blinds and I was propped up in bed, naked but covered by a blanket, as she lay beside me.
"Or what?" She smiled, one finger tracing patterns on the skin of my hip, part of which was visible under the scanty cover.
"Or could we have those days just together?"
"Doing what?" She asked, her finger moving lower, along my upper thigh, revealing more of me as the blanket began to fall away.
"I don't know... going for runs together, shopping, kissing..."
"Fucking?" She grinned, propping her head up on her arm so that the blanket fell from her breasts.
"Making love." I grinned, reaching across and tweaking her nipple before putting down my tea.
"You want me to close up shop for two days so we can fool around?"
"Not close up, just let your employees handle it."
"I need to get them up to date on the orders that are coming in while I'm away."
"Mmmm, all work and no play..." I grinned, sliding down so I was lying next to her, my face level with hers.
"I do not know how you can say that after last night." She replied, trailing her fingers over my hips and waist.
"Mmm, it was good wasn't it?"
"Always is with you baby."
"You've never called me that before last night."
"What? Baby?"
"Huh, guess I haven't. I've never really called anyone that. I always call them by their names."
"Call? As in present tense?" I arched my eyebrow.
"Until last night." She grinned, reaching forward to kiss me. "And no, I do not mean that I've had opportunity to call anyone else baby since we got together."
"Just checking." I grinned. "So you're going to work today?"
"How long till you have to leave?"
"An hour."
"Plenty of time." I grinned, heading under the covers.
"I have to go now." She whispered in to my hair. We had both showered together and now we lay on the bed, arms around each other, talking.
"Mmm, wouldn't want the boss to get annoyed."
"I hear she's quite the fire cracker." She grinned.
"I hear she keeps a girl locked in her house as a sex slave."
"I hear that girl is gorgeous. My boss probably just wants to make sure no one else steals her away."
"Would you steal her away?"
"In a heartbeat."
"And what about me?" I pretended to be outraged.
"It is you. It's only ever been you." She muttered, kissing me again. We rolled over until she was on top of me. "I really have to go."
"No you don't." I groaned, kissing her.
"If I stay we'll never get off this bed."
"Sounds like heaven to me."
"Me too. But I need to work."
I sighed and gave her another kiss.
"Go. If you get a break, sneak back up."
"Not sure the boss would like it if she found out I was fucking her girl on her time."
"The girl doesn't mind."
"I'm sure." She stole another kiss. "Ok, I really have to go."
"One more kiss." She rolled her eyes and kissed me again. And again.
"Ok. Now I have to go." She pulled herself away and sighed, looking down at me. "God I am so lucky."
"Fuck off." I grinned. "Go to your job. Wouldn't want the boss to spank you."
I blushed and grinned; she chuckled and blew me a kiss as she left. I heard the door open, shut and lock, and then she was gone.
And suddenly I realised that I really needed the toilet.

At the end of last year, I did not only got engaged but also got the chance to launch my (long-awaited) new book, Travel Young. The book was officially launched on 21 December 2015 in TOMS, Central Department Store, Grand Indonesia. TOMS is definitely one of my favourite brands in the world, thanks to its awesome concept that when you buy a pair of shoes, you are also giving another pair to someone in need. They were going to open their first store in Indonesia, and I was flattered that they wanted me to launch my book to "open" their store!
The book launch was a rather intimate one due to the limited space, but I was really happy because a lot of media friends came, a couple of close friends, and my partner were there to give their utmost support. :)
Travel Young is basically a travel memoir that documents my journey to a number of destinations, mainly outside Indonesia, to attend conferences or speak on behalf of young Indonesians in international forums. I shared my journey to those places, as well as my journey on growing up and embracing adulthood — a process I had never thought could be documented in writing.
Have you read Travel Young? If so, kindly let me know what you think! And if you haven't, go grab it at the nearest book stores (including online).

(CNSNews.com) - Former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens, in his new book, recommends six rewrites to the U.S. Constitution. He would restrict gun ownership to militia members; ban the death penalty; and allow government to set "reasonable limits" on campaign financing, among other things.
But Stevens says he's no radical:
"I think every one of my proposals is a moderate proposal," Stevens told ABC's George Stephanopoulos in an interview that aired Sunday on ABC's "This Week."
One of Steven's proposals would add five words to the Second Amendment, which would then read: "...the right of the people to keep and bear arms, when serving in the militia, shall not be infringed."
Stevens agreed that adding those five words would allow legislatures and Congress, rather than the courts, to "do what they think is in the best public interest."
Stevens says America's Founding Fathers never intended the Second Amendment to be an individual right: He said the framers feared that the "federal government would be so strong they might destroy the state militias."
Stephanopoulos followed up: "But to be clear, if Congress passed a national ban on individual gun ownership, that would be constitutional under your amendment."
"I think that's right," Stevens said.
Stevens would add words to two other sections as well, making the death penalty unconstitutional; and specifying that all public officials in every state "shall be bound by the supreme law of the land."
For example, the 8th Amendment would read a follows: Excessive Bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments such as the death penalty inflicted.
And the Supremacy Clause of Article VI would read: "This Constitution, and the laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges and other public officials in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the Constitution or laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding."
The former Supreme Court justice also wants to ban gerrymandering, the practice of drawing congressional lines to maximize political clout. "It doesn't take a genius to say that there's something fishy with these particular districts," he told Stephanopoulos.
Stevens wants the Constitution to say that congressional districts "shall be compact and composed of contiguous territory. The state shall have the burden of justifying any departures from this requirement…"
He wants curbs on campaign finance: "Neither the First Amendment nor any other provision of this Constitution shall be construed to prohibit the Congress or any state from imposing reasonable limits on the amount of money that candidates for public office, or their supporters, may spend in election campaigns."
And Stevens would limit sovereign immunity, by stating that nothing in the Constitution or its Amendments "shall be construed to provide any state, state agency, or state officer with an immunity from liability for violating any Act of Congress, or any provision of this Constitution."
Stevens said he believes that eventually, all of his proposed amendments will pass. "Well, perhaps today there might be no chance for certainly the Second Amendment proposal," he said, "but the difficulty of the process shouldn't foreclose an attempt."
Stevens, a Gerald Ford appointee who retired in 2010, was replaced by Elena Kagan. His new book is titled, Six Amendments: How and Why We Should Change the Constitution.

*From the Tuberculosis Service (Drs. Leung, Law, Chang, Tam, Chan, and Wong), Department of Health, Pneumoconiosis Clinic; and Tuberculosis and Chest Unit (Dr. Yew), Grantham Hospital, Hong Kong, China.
Correspondence to: Chi Chiu Leung, MB, FCCP, Pneumoconiosis Clinic, 8 Chaiwan Rd 4/F, Shaukiwan, Hong Kong, China; e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Objective: To compare the adverse effects and treatment adherence between 2 months of rifampin plus pyrazinamide (2RZ) and 6 months of isoniazid (6H).
Background: Patients with silicosis in Hong Kong are at high risk of acquiring tuberculosis. A previous study showed that treatment with 6H reduced the risk of silico-tuberculosis by one half.
Method: Patients with silicosis and a Mantoux skin test reaction ≥ 10 mm were randomized to receive either 2RZ or 6H daily. Liver function testing was done monthly during the initial 2 months. The adverse effects and treatment adherence were compared between the two regimens.
Results: Forty patients (mean age, 61.6 ± 9.1 years) and 36 patients (mean age, 57.6 ± 9.7 years) were randomized to the 2RZ and 6H arms, respectively (p > 0.05) [± SD]. Baseline characteristics were comparable. Nineteen patients in the 2RZ arm had peak alanine transaminase (ALT) levels > 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) in comparison with only five study subjects of the 6H arm (47.5% vs 13.9%, p < 0.01). Fourteen patients (35%) in the 2RZ arm and 1 patient (2.8%) in the 6H arm had peak ALT levels more than five times the ULN (p < 0.001). Only seven patients had symptoms suggestive of hepatitis; none of the patients had jaundice. All recovered after withholding treatment. In the 2RZ study arm, none of the baseline characteristics predicted hepatotoxicity. Other adverse effects were generally mild and comparable between both study arms. Treatment was stopped prematurely in 45% and 36.1% of patients in the 2RZ and 6H arms, respectively (p = 0.43). The main reasons were hepatotoxicity for the 2RZ arm and voluntary withdrawal after experiencing other minor adverse effects for the 6H arm.
Conclusion: A higher incidence of hepatotoxicity was associated with rifampin plus pyrazinamide than isoniazid in the treatment of latent tuberculosis infection among patients with silicosis in Hong Kong.
