A Combination of Hydrated and Dehydrated Silicates on the S Asteroid 11 Parthenope?
V. V. Busarev (SSAI, Moscow University)
Reflectance spectra of 11 Parthenope in the range with
a spectral resolution of have been obtained near it's oppositi-
on in September 1993 in the course of a night using solar-type refe-
rence star (HD11170). It has been done with a scanning spectrophotome-
ter mounted on the 1.25 m telescope in Crimea. The spectra show some
weak absorption features which may be ascribed to layer silicates.
General shape of the spectra agrees with classification of Parthenope as
S asteroid. Nevertheless, there are unusual weak absorption bands at
(up to in depth), (up to ), and mo-
re faint (ab. ) ones at 0.47, 0.59, 0.63, 0.68, and . It is interesting that the absorption features at 0.38 and
are like in parameters to those found by us on the M aste-
roid 201 Penelope. Resembling absorption bands were registered also
on the S asteroid 181 Eucharis (Vilas et al. 1993, Icarus 102,
225-231). The spectral features of Parthenope in the reflectance spec-
tra are in a correspondence with a pattern of absorptions in spectrum of
terrestrial chlorite (A. N. Platonov 1973. The nature of mineral colo-
ring. - Kiev, Naukova Dumka Press, 98).
The presence of absorption bands at 0.51 and ( )
attributed to pyroxenes (Burns et al. 1972, Proc. Lunar Sci. Conf.
3rd, 533-543) in the obtained spectra of the asteroid together with
features mentioned above allows to suppose that combinations of layer
silicates and unaltered igneous minerals are possible on 11 Parthe-
nope and some other S and M asteroids.

The Harry Potter movie series is being honoured with a special Bafta award for 10 years of movie magic!
The flicks are getting a prize for Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema at this year's Baftas, which are like a UK version of the Oscars.
Harry Potter author JK Rowling and the films' producer David Heyman will collect the award at the Bafta ceremony on 13 February.
Emma Watson said of the news: "This is a huge honour!"
She continued: "I am so proud to have been part of the incredible team both in front and behind the camera that made these films."
Daniel Radcliffe said he was thrilled: "I have loved every minute of making these films and to me the real heroes are the crew and the huge team of craftsmen that have made all eight of them possible."
The Harry Potter films have been received a total of 28 Bafta nominations and five Oscar nominations.
The eighth and final movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, is due out in July.

More than 15 years have passed since Mike Tyson infamously bit Evander Holyfield's ear during a fight. Life's too short for the parties involved to not joke about it now, and that is exactly what they have been doing over the past few months. Back in June, Tyson promoted Holyfield's barbecue sauce on his Twitter account by writing that Holyfield's ear would have tasted better with it. On Monday, Holyfield tweeted the photo you see above along with the following:
"@MikeTyson bit my ear and all I got was this lousy t-shirt."
The shirt can be purchased online as part of the Mike Tyson Collection, so it appears the two former heavyweight champions have turned into promoters for each other. It's no secret Holyfield has had some financial problems recently, so perhaps it is a relationship that can benefit both. Good for them for turning the whole thing into water under the bridge.

Hello there, I'm 24 years old and work as a glamour model. I have recently lost a big of weight and my breasts have dropped from a natural 32ff to a 32e I'm happy with the size but would like them to look more full and perky. I do however still wish to model after surgery so the less scaring the better. I have heard of breform and was wondering if it would be better then having a doughnut lift. Thank you Tina x
Breform Or Doughnut Lift? (photo)
Doctor Answers 8
Breform or Benelli
The Benelli lift may suffice in your case, but you may need a vertical of full breast lift to produce the type of lift you are imagining.
Donut lift tightens skin but does not lift breast
You are a perfect candidate for a new technique (Mini Ultimate Breast Lift) that requires only a circumareola incision. Through this incision, your breast tissue is elevated higher on the chest wall, your cleavage is increased and your breast is reshaped to increase upper pole fullness. The results are long lasting since the weight of the breast is transferred to the underlying muscle. This technique is by far superior to the donut lift developed in 1990 by Benelli.
Best Wishes,
Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Breform or lift
Thank you for your question and for providing photos. While it is impossible to make an absolute decision without an examination, I can give my opinions.
The breform lift uses a molded polyester support system to lift the breasts. There are downsides to the procedure, namely that it places a foreign body in the breasts, and it is not available in the US to the best of my knowledge.
I don't think that a doughnut, or Benelli, type of lift would give you the results that you are looking for. It would likely not provide the fullness above the bra-line that you want and would flatten the central cone of the breast. Based on your photos, you would need a circumvertical, or lollypop lift at least. These scars may be objectionable to you as a model, and need to be considered.
The final decision will be based on whether you think that the trade off of the scars for an enhanced breast shape would be worth it.
Best of luck with your decision and your modeling career.

Breform or lift?
It looks like you would need some sort of a lift and a donut mastopexy probably is not enough. Breform is not available in the US.
Breform Or Doughnut Lift?
I totally agree with Drs Rand & Gottleib. In addition you are not a candidate for the "donut lift" in my opinion but need at least an L-shaped lift.
Breform Or Doughnut Lift
Breform is a polyester sheet placed between the breast tissue and the breast skin, sometimes needing less incision than a standard lift. There are practitioners in the UK using this device, but it is not approved in the US. From my limited understanding, the minimum incision is around the areola for patients without excess skin. You would seem to have enough excess skin to require an incision along the breast fold. There are standard time proven techniques that can accomplish this without inserted foreign material that does not have long term follow up for safety.
For a standard lift, you would not have enough change with a doughnut lift, and I am not sure that even if you had a "perfect" contour result that the scars would be an acceptable tradeoff. Best advice is to consult with a plastic surgeon, look at lots of photos.
Thanks, best wishes.
You need a full lift
A Breform lift is not considered a standard of care safe procedure in the US to my knowledge. And a doughnut lift will do really nothing for you in terms of lifting or reshaping the breast. Unfortunately, your anatomy dictates the need for a full breat lift for optimal results but the scarring may be prohibitive for you at the present time. Best then to wait until a time in your life where the trade off of shape for scar will accomodate the proper procedure which is a full lift.
Breform Or Doughnut #Lift? (photo) ANS:
I think you will need the full lift. A donut will not give you enough fullness in the upper part of the breast. But then there is the scarring. So you may want to hold off on any surgery until you are done with modeling, unless airbrushing is an option if the scars are too noticeable...

Blunsdon House hotel in Swindon is situated in the village of Broad Blunsdon on the north edge of Swindon, only 7 miles from the M4 and 4 miles from the town centre. The hotel is set in 30 acres of beautiful Wiltshire countryside and is only one hour from London, Oxford, Bath, Cheltenham and Bristol making it ideal for touring the picturesque villages of the Cotswolds or shopping in the nearby Designer Outlet Village.
Blunsdon House Hotel was probably built as a Hunting Lodge at the beginning of the 19th Century on the 400 Acre St Leonard's Farm. The earliest known owner, Captain Henry Walters, had Blunsdon House from the early part of the 19th Century and may well have been responsible for some of the fine specimens of trees which remain to this day. The house changed hands several times until it was purchased by Peter and Zan Clifford in 1947. Blunsdon House became a farm with pigs, cattle and poultry.
The year that changed Zan and Peter's life was 1957, and the event was the Bath and West show. This huge agricultural show brought many visitors to Swindon. A hotelier friend asked Peter if he and his wife could accommodate some people in their 10 bedroomed farm house.
Within two years the hotel became a licensed Country Club. In 1960 Blunsdon House became a fully licensed hotel. In the mid 1960's it was one of only three hotels in Swindon to achieve AA and RAC listings and twenty years later became the first four-star hotel in the county.
The hotel has continued to grow from the first extension in 1964 and in 2005 Blunsdon House Hotel achieved another accolade becoming only the fourth 'Premier' rated Best Western hotel in the UK. Plasma TV screens in the newly refurbished bedrooms are a far cry from the black and white sets of the 1960's. Blunsdon House is set to go from strength to strength by listening to its guests.

One way to increase protein metabolism is to orally ingest the steroid Dianabol (1 7-alpha-methyl-1 7beta-hydroxil-androsta-1.4dien-3-on). Dianabol is capable of elevating the promotion of protein synthesis, which in turn helps to store protein. The end result is a more positive equilibrium of nitrogen and a better sense of well being. Dianabol too has a very powerful anabolic and androgenic effect resulting in a massive buildup of strength and muscle mass for its proponents.
Dianabol is basically a "mass steroid" which works rapidly and consistently. Normally the user will gain two to four pounds weekly during the first six weeks. The added body weight is comprised of an actual enhancement of tissue where the muscle tissues will hyper-trophy, and there will be a noticeable evidence fluid retention. Unfortunately, Dianabol aromatizes quickly so it is not recommended to use prior to competition. However, if both Nolvadex and Proviron are taken at the same time, water retention and aromatizing can be circumvented. Contestants have the option of taking Dianabol three to four days prior to a competitive event.
A daily dose that will produce desirable results should be about 15-40 mg.. This should work hand in hand with the athlete's personal objectives. Newcomers to steroid use will not require more than 15-20 mg of Dianabol daily. This dosage will produce outstanding end results within an 8-10 week period.
After approximately eight weeks the end result will decelerate and the user will want to resume the program, his intake of Dianabol must not be increased, but a steroid that can be injected such as Deca-Durabolin with a dosage of 200 mg/week or Primobolan with a dosage of 200 mg/week must be administered as well as the Dianabol ; or a changeover can be made to either of the two compounds mentioned. Testosterone is not advised at this point since the user should leave some room for flexibility at a later date. Athletes wishing for quicker results or for the non-novice, a stack of Dianabol 20-30 mg/day and Deca-Durabolin 200- 400 mg/day produces astounding results. Athletes with a focus on strength building and not so much body mass can mix Dianabol with Oxandrolone or Winstrol pills. Results are visible with the added injectable steroid. For the development of mass and strength, it is recommended to take Sustanon or Testosterone enanthate at a dose of 250-mg weekly and/ or Deca-Durabolin at 200 mg weekly.
When training for competitive events, Dianabol has its limitations due to its propensity for retention of water in many athletes and equally due to its high aromatization rate into estrogen. This causes difficulties for the user's breakdown of fat. For the lucky ones who do not have this issue or who can keep it under control by using Nolvadex or Proviron, they should also use Dianabol in conjunction with the Parabolan, Oxandrolone, Winstrol Depot, Mastero.

All for One?
Hope Solo is probably the best women's goalkeeper in the world. But there is something Solo is even better at than stopping opponents' shots---stirring up controversy.
The latest is a series of tweets attacking NBC Sports broadcaster and former U.S. National Team defender Brandi Chastain.
Apparently Chastain was critical of the U.S. team's defending during Saturday's Olympic match against Colombia , prompting Solo to tweet:
"Its 2 bad we cant have commentators who better represents the team&knows more about the game.
" Lay off commentating about defending and gking until you get more educated @brandichastain the game has changed from a decade ago."
" Its important 2 our fans 2 enjoy the spirit of the olympics.Its not possible when sum1 on air is saying that a player is the worst defender!
"I feel bad 4 our fans that have 2 push mute, especially bc @arlowhite is fantastic.@brandichastain should be helping 2 grow the sport "
Pretty strong stuff for 144 characters or less.
Now, in the interest of full disclosure, Brandi is a friend, and the parent company of this web site at one time had a business relationship with her.
I didn't hear Chastain's supposed criticism of the U.S. women. But she is a commentator. It's her job.
I've had many conversations with Chastain about soccer, and feel confident saying she has probably forgotten more soccer than Solo will ever know. She is a long-time student of the game at all levels. And as for Solo's comment that Chastain should be helping to grow the sport, she and the players of her era did just that, and the current crop of national teamers have spent their careers benefitting from it.
But that's not the point. And I am not defending Chastain or her comments, since I didn't hear them.
The point is there seems to be a prevailing "us vs. them" feeling within U.S. Soccer the organization and U.S. soccer lower case, and that any criticism of a team, player, official, or anything to have to do with the sport means you are against the sport and helping it grow.
I am not talking about the soccer-bashing columns that still, invariably, pop up in newspapers, or the snide comments from TV sports anchors you hear from time to time. I am talking about actual, legitimate criticism.
The fact is, if the sport is to continue to grow, it needs that kind of criticism, and the participants and powers that be within the sport need to be secure enough in what they are doing to accept that not everyone sees things the way they do, and indeed might have a legitimate point now and then. It's interesting to me that Solo should be in the center of this particular controversy, having been on the receiving end of some U.S. soccer close-mindedness after what I'm sure she felt was legitimate criticism of then-national team coach Greg Ryan's decision to bench her in favor of Briana Scurry in the World Cup 2007 semifinal against Brazil. Commentators and columnists need to make those criticisms. That's our job. Certainly more than it was Hope Solo's job to criticize her coach and throw Scurry under the bus.
There were plenty of reporters who agreed with Solo on that. I don't recall her thanking any of them for sticking up for her. In her comments, Solo appears to be sticking up for her teammates, and would be fine. But is that what she's really doing? After all, her comments now make her once again the center of attention. Which seems to be how she really likes it.

DUARTE - For Sandy Patterson, the old adage, "no good deed goes unpunished," rings painfully true.
The former Duarte businesswoman had spent the past four years trying to keep at-risk youths off the streets by giving them a free education in auto mechanics at her "Sirius Gearheads" auto shop.
But after money problems caused her to lose the shop in late November, she and her family - which includes three grandchildren - have fallen into the trap she was trying to help the teens avoid. They are homeless.
"For the past six weeks now we have been homeless. (Being) the bag lady has become a fear of tomorrow for us," Patterson said.
In a last-ditch effort to keep her business open, Patterson had sold her home and moved her family into the shop late last year while she continued teaching teens and providing them with meals and a free trade school.
Since the doors closed, her family has moved from motel to motel, often using vouchers and getting food from churches and nonprofits, she said.
In the meantime, her former students are getting restless. Many have nothing else to occupy their time.
"Since we lost (the program), it's been kind of boring after school, which gives us more time to do stupid stuff," said Adolfo Mares Jr., a student at Mount Olive Alternative Education in Duarte. "Our minds are off of mechanics and on other things, and that's not the way to go."
He and several other students in her program had pledged to go to college, and some had hoped to pursue careers in auto work.
Even without a home, Patterson continues her crusade to provide a resource for the teens. She occasionally meets with groups of them at their homes to work on cars.
"That's what you're supposed to do. That's what life's about," she said. "Why would you turn your back on those kids?"
Her resilience has caught the attention of former customer Juan Zarta, who said he grew up in the same circumstances as the teens and believes they need a role model.
"She's so unselfish," he said. "These kids will always have that ingrained in their heart - that someone went out of their way to help them."
But time is running out for Patterson and her family as they search for jobs and a home. She fears they could be living on the streets in weeks and is selling off machinery from her old business to stay afloat.
She believes she can get back on her feet if she can find a place to do business. She still has clients.
"We just need a building to get our shop back," she said.
The teens share her wish.
"It's just been a heart-breaker because I was so used to going to my after-school shop class," said Mount Olive student Joseph Resendez, 17. "We want to try to get it back as soon as we can."

And summer rain can't erode the foundation. ASD ADVANCED FORMULA J-16 DRIVEWAY SEALER extends pavement service life and makes pavements easier to clean. This unique, premium quality formulation lets you do it yourself with no costly mixing equipment. Easy-to-follow application directions are printed on every container.
Application: Use hand squeegees or brush applicators. Brush applicators are best on extremely smooth or rough open-textured surfaces. A previously unsealed driveway or one in marginal condition may require 2 coats of J-16 DRIVEWAY SEALER.
J-16 DRIVEWAY SEALER is available in two (2) grades:
- Plain (no sand)
- Sand-Filled.
The best time to use the Sand-Filled coal tar sealer, is on the first coat over new asphalt. This is great for moderate to heavy traffic areas because it allows for extra wear and it also provides additional traction where slip resistance is needed. The second and final top coat can be either Sand-Filled or Plain (No Sand -> Recommended).
Coverage: Quantities required will vary with porosity and texture of pavement surface, but general ranges are as follows:
- Home Driveways
- Play Areas
- Parking Stalls
- Bicycle and Golf Car Paths Etc.
1st COAT J-16: 60 - 90 sq ft per gallon | Sand: 2 lbs / gallon
2nd COAT J-16: 90 - 112.5 sq ft per gallon | Sand: None
- Driveways
- Parking Lots
- Airfield and Highway Shoulders
- Service Station Aprons
- Steep Grades
1st COAT J-16: 75 - 90 sq ft per gallon | Sand: 2 lbs / gallon
2nd COAT J-16: 75 - 112.5 sq ft per gallon | Sand: None
ASD Asphalt Driveway Sealer is designed for residential asphalt driveways and will keep your driveway looking like new and greatly extend the life of the asphalt.
*Also available is 55 gallon drums and 275 gallon totes.
Ideal for: LOW TRAFFIC, Home Driveways, Play Areas, Parking Stalls,Bicycle and Golf Cart paths
Extends pavement service life
Gas and oil can't eat it away
Short Answer: Yes - All of the sealcoat sealers we offer, are designed to be applied with either a sealcoat sprayer or manually with a sealcoat brush or squeegee.

James Monroe lived in this modest house at Ash Lawn for many years before and after he was the fifth president of the United States. His cabin is similar to thousands built by colonial families throughout Virginia and North Carolina. The only thing that distinguishes his house is the mahogany furniture inside and a marble bust of Napoleon, presented to Monroe by the Emperor himself.
The form of the house, with a porch facing south and a central hall between rooms, welcomed cooling breezes in summer. Materials to build the house were dug or grown nearby. Tall ash trees shade the roof in summer and allow the sun to warm the dwelling in winter. Today we call these features sustainable. To Monroe, they were common sense.
Then, as today, the most effective features of a sustainable house are free.

A Year of Good Food: Honey wholegrain mustard
Making mustard is really quite simple and you get a full, robust mustard flavour when you make your own. Follow this simple mustard recipe.
Today is the second installment of my little series on homemade Christmas presents. And after last week's beautiful, rich truffles we are now going savoury! A jar of mustard wrapped up with a handwritten note would put a smile on anyone's face, you'd hope! And I am planning on making a bunch of these for teacher presents this week.
Making mustards at home is one of the easiest things you can put in a jar – no peeling, chopping or stirring as with chutneys or jams and, as all mustard-lovers know, there are almost endless uses for this condiment.
For Christmas, I like to sweeten my mustard a little with honey (so great with all that leftover ham) but you could swap this with a tablespoon of finely chopped herbs.
Honey wholegrain mustard
Makes 1 jar
3 tbsp yellow mustard seeds
3 tbsp brown mustard seeds
1 tbsp mustard powder
2 tsp sea salt
2 tbsp white wine vinegar
2 tbsp honey
Grind all but 2 mixed tablespoons of mustard seeds with the salt and mustard powder until fine (use a mortar and pestle, spice grinder or coffee grinder). Add the vinegar, honey and one tablespoon of water and mix well. Transfer to a sterilized jar, seal and leave in the fridge overnight before using. Keeps for over 6 months in the fridge.

At this year's holiday party on Friday, 11 December, a select group of staff will be recognized with the institution's most prestigious honors, the annual Outstanding Performance Awards. The ceremony is traditional, dating back to the awards' inauguration in 1967, but the selection process this year is a new one. It's part of a two-year transition meant to raise the profile of the awards and bring them more in line with the realities of how science is conducted today.
Dale Kellogg, executive assistant to NCAR director Bob Serafin, has been overseeing the award revamp. She formed a task force that included division directors, senior administrators, scientists, and engineers to review the current policy and practices. The task force recommended a two-tiered process of change to update the policy and raise the visibility of the awards. The President's Council endorsed the recommendations from the group and initiated the first stage--the creation of a single jury to review the nominations and make the awards.
Dale launched the effort for several reasons, one of which was the effort required each year to recruit people for the five different review committees (one for each of the five awards). These committees looked over the nominations submitted through division and program managers each fall.
"The old process left the review committees isolated," says Dale. "Because many people only wanted to serve once, you got a lot of new employees without a long-term institutional context." This year's jury of 17 people was drawn from across NCAR, UOP, and UCAR. Selected by divison and program managers and confirmed by the President's Council, the jury includes scientists, technical experts, administrators, and education-program managers. Each jury member will read every award nomination.
Because review of some of the nominations requires special expertise, the jury broke into subgroups not unlike the review committees of past years. However, these subgroups can be wider-ranging than their predecessors. For example, an administrator and a scientist might join with engineers to help evaluate the Technology Advancement nominees. The entire jury will receive reports from the subgroups and vote on the final award choices.
This year's jury registered strong support for the single-review-panel concept. In 1999, the Human Resources Advisory Committee (HRAC) will examine past policy and get feedback on this year's experience from jury members and others. The HRAC will then propose refinements to the new approach, which should be finalized by the President's Council in time for the 1999 awards.
One of the HRAC's tasks will be to update the nomination criteria in light of modern science practices. "Are the criteria flexible enough? Do they reflect the way we do things now?" asks Dale. For instance, the current policy limits teams to five members, but some recent awards have gone to working groups that encompass many more folks. Other policy issues include a few unwritten traditions, such as the inclusion of letters of recommendation, which need to be spelled out more clearly in the nomination guidelines (UCAR policy 2-5-2). The HRAC will also consider the possible establishment of one or two new award categories to recognize young scientists or exceptional achievements that do not fall neatly within any of the existing categories.
Finally, the task force would like to see the awards get their rightful share of attention. Dale notes that, "Aside from the holiday-party ceremony, there currently isn't much fanfare." BH

I, Dr. Shashi Bhushan Kumar, M.B.B.S; M.D. (Psychiatry), just, wish to share some deep and memorable experience of my eventful three decades journey.
Indeed, in this cyber era and on this information highway, we are all together like a big family. I was born in a farmer family in Bihar.

I consider myself fortunate that I was born in this sacrosanct place. My sagacity grew with growing age and the profession of medicine seemed to me like a divine and the noblest of profession...Read More

Granger on verge of returning
INDIANAPOLIS — Danny Granger, the leading scorer for Indiana the past five years, could play for the first time this season Wednesday night against Charlotte.
After watching the former All-Star go through a second full practice Tuesday, coach Frank Vogel told reporters that Granger looked a "little rusty" and that the Pacers were eager to finally get him back on the court.
"My message to Danny is that we don't want you to come back unless you feel you're ready to come back," Vogel said. "So if he's not there yet, we don't want to push it. We'll wait."
The Pacers (31-21) have been waiting more than three months for Granger to recover from patellar tendinosis in his left knee. After the initial diagnosis in early November, Indiana struggled to get its offense in sync and win games.
Then they adapted.
Vogel modified the offense, which led to a breakout first half from forward Paul George, who was selected to his first All-Star Game. David West pitched in by becoming a major offensive threat inside, and the Pacers went 27-14 over their next 41 games to take the Central Division lead.
Sacramento under pressure to keep Kings
The clock is ticking for Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson's efforts to keep the Kings from moving to Seattle.
Speaking at his weekly City Hall news conference, Johnson said Tuesday that the joint committee that will decide whether the Kings leave might want to discuss his city's proposal before the NBA Board of Governors meeting April 19.
Owners can vote on the pending sale and relocation of the Kings at any time, but the annual meeting in New York is typically when decisions about moving a franchise are made. NBA Commissioner David Stern said last week he combined the two committees that oversee sales and relocations and told them, "You guys figure it out."
"I'm under the assumption that the joint committee may want to hear from us sooner," Johnson said. "We're going to have all the agreements and all the actions and all the documents squared by March 1, as well as if there's an opportunity to present to the joint committee prior to mid-April, then I feel very confident. We're going to have all our ducks in order. We're going to be ready before mid-April if that's what it takes."

I was recently scheduled for a septorhinoplasty to straighten a ("very, very") deviated septum and a crooked nose tip, both of which arose from contact sport. However, last night, while fumbling around in a foreign room, I bumped my nose and forehead against an ill-placed wall. There was no lasting pain in my nose, though it smarted a little for about thirty-seconds afterwards. My question: must I now get a *new* CT scan before undergoing surgery? (I don't want my surgeon going in blind!)
Should I Get Another CT Scan?
Doctor Answers 6
Should I Get Another CT Scan?
This assumes that you had a previous CT scan for a crooked nasal septum which is way over the top in my humble opinion. The nature of the septal deviation can be determined through direct examination both before and during the Rhinoplasty making the CT unnecessary.

CT scan and septorhinoplasty
A CT scan is normally not needed before septorhinoplasty surgery. The physical exam is usually enough to evaluate the nose and septum before surgery. CT scans can be helpful to evaluate any potential sinus problems though. It also doesn't sound as though your recent injury was significant enough to cause any changes to the nasal bones or septum.
CAT scans are overkill for most septoplasty.
Most the time a CAT scan is not needed prior to airway work. If you're anticipating surgery I don't think that repeating the test will help the surgeon.

Is a CT scan necessary for rhinoplasty surgery?
The only time I get a CT scan for a potential rhinoplasty patient is if I am also evaluating the patient for sinus disease or if there is the possibility of fractures. If the patient does not have a significant history for sinus and allergy disease I don't find that much value in a CT. A thorough physical exam is the most important part of planning a rhinoplasty procedure.
I would follow up with your surgeon to determine if any further workup needs to be done prior to surgery.
Should I Get Another CT Scan?
Physical exam generally suffices for septal exam. CT scan can be ordered if concerned about other fractures secondary to the trauma. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of rhinoplasties and rhinoplasty revisions each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

The First Tee of Killeen is getting some professional help.
With a grant from the United States Golf Association, The First Tee is now offering its players lessons from Stonetree Golf Club PGA pro Greg Antunes.
"It means a whole lot to the kids because they are getting professional expertise on swinging the club properly, lining up your shot and building up confidence," The First Tee executive director Henry Hurst said.
The grant, which The First Tee must match, supports the program in four different categories. The grant provides payment for PGA Professional instruction, payment for additional golf instruction by a First Tee coach, payment for golf course usage at a discounted fee and payment for usage of golf balls for the driving range at reduced rates.
Antunes said he just hopes to add to what Hurst, Joel Darrow (Director of Golf for First Tee) and senior instructor Abe West have already taught the kids.
"It's a great opportunity to me and I hope I can help do something with the First Tee," Antunes said. "They've been working hard at it and I just want to do whatever little part I can do to try and help them along.
"The future of golf is in the kids. They are going to be the golfers of tomorrow and I like the First Tee's core principles."
The First Tee is an initiative of the World Golf Foundation and allows children ages 7-17, many who would otherwise never be involved with the game of golf, the opportunity to grow as golfers and as people.
The First Tee mission statement is "To impact the lives of young people by providing learning facilities and educational programs that promote character development and life-enhancing values through the game of golf."
Antunes said he is looking forward to working with the kids.
"I'm really looking forward to this and I hope to get the kids that have a little interest to grow and the ones that have good interest to continue to provide them with the opportunity to improve as quickly as possible," Antunes said.

Yes…. at 5.5.5. I realize it's ironic I am writing an article on growth. 😉
So this is not about physical growth, but self growth.
It's easy to stay where we are because it takes no effort. No strain. No pain.
Growth requires intention. Movement. Direction. Discipline.
It's not accidental.
Children grow because of nutrients, love, affection, education and more, right?
It's not a mystery. There's no secret.
As adults the temptation is to rest and enjoy what we've worked for. Instead we need to keep pushing. Keep going. Keep growing.
How do we grow?
Decide > Learn > Act > Evaluate > Adapt > Adopt
Decide on the destination. I think about this as your mission.
Learn what it will take to get you there.
Last night Gary Key said, "Learning gives us the knowledge to ACT in the direction of our MISSION."
Act. Thinking is theoretical. Action is factual. People will tell you all the time they are thinking about doing _______. But it's all smoke until the steps are taken.
Evaluate. Everything we learn does not translate into perfect results. Take the results you get and decide how well the action worked.
Adapt. Make the changes needed before taking the next step.
Adopt. When something does work the way you planned then adopt it. No need to change it right now. Just keep doing it for positive results.
That may seem overly simplistic, but it works.
Examine your life today.
What's growing?
What's stunted?
What's rotting?

Mirandola, Italy (AFP) May 23, 2013
Reconstruction efforts in Emilia Romagna in Italy are proceeding slowly a year after two powerful earthquakes wrecked homes and businesses in this rich farming and medical industry region.
"A year is a long time for people who are suffering but a short time for those who have to rebuild," said Maino Benatti, mayor of Mirandola, a town at the epicentre of the tremors.
"We have to be patient because usually it takes eight to 10 years to get back to normal," the mayor was quoted by Italian media as saying.
Emilia Romagna was struck on May 20 and 29, 2012 by earthquakes measuring 6.0 and 5.8 on the Richter scale, which killed 25 people.
The earthquakes and various aftershocks cost billions of euros (dollars) in damages, with around 15,000 people forced to leave their homes.
Mirandola is holding a series of commemorations for the victims but is also inaugurating a newly-built campus devoted to biomedicine.
Numerous building sites have been launched, although many town streets still remain covered in scaffolding and deserted with no work going on.
A symbol of the difficulties with reconstruction is the main church in Mirandola.
The interior has been cleared of debris and the structure reinforced but the rebuilding has not yet begun and each stone of the church has been numbered and categorised as the work looms.
In residential streets homeowners complain they face bureaucratic hurdles and compensation delays.
Many businesses have moved to temporary prefabricated buildings on the town's outskirts which appear destined to stay for a long time.
Some residents are still living in containers.
"Maybe it will take two years but we are on the right track with re-housing," the mayor said.

Family names; Bonaccorso, Tardia, Fardella, Ceravola
I am looking for family. My gggrandfathers name was Filippo Bonaccorso. He was born on Dec. 11, 1860, In Trabia Sicily. His parents names are Salvatore Bonaccorso and Teresa Tardia. He went over to the United States, on or about 1890. His future wife went over on or about 1893. Her Name was Salvatora Fardella. She was born on Sept. 5 , 1873. Her parents names were Leonardo Fardella and Santa Ceravola. They married in Kansas City, Missouri. on Sept.15, 1893. Between 1893 and 1911, they had 12 children. But they also moved back and forth between the United States and Canada a few times. No one knows why. I am looking for these peoples siblings. We do not know of any but are pretty hopeful that they do have some. Any information, no matter how small or insignifigant it may seem, would be greatly appreciated. Maybe somehow if possible i would be able to fill in some blanks for someone else as well. Thank you
How sure are you about Tardia? There is a very good change that Teresa's surname is not Tardia but Tardio. Tardio is a common name in Trabia and originates from San Nicola a subburb of Trabia. Please check your sources again and send me a private message because I will not be able to read the forum the comming 4 weeks.

Ant, properties, precedence and a surprise
<project default="print_some_properties" name="Use Property Files"> <property name="prop1" value="coke" /> <property file="build_1.properties" /> <property file="build_2.properties" /> <property name="prop5" value="fanta" /> <target name="print_some_properties" > <echo message="prop1: ${prop1}" /> <echo message="prop2: ${prop2}" /> <echo message="prop3: ${prop3}" /> <echo message="prop4: ${prop4}" /> <echo message="prop5: ${prop5}" /> </target> </project>
As can be seen, if Ant is invoked with this build.xml file, it tries to build the default target print_some_properties. This target does nothing except printing the values of the five properties prop1 through prop5.
This build.xml alse references two property files that set some properties. Here's their content:
prop3=apple prop4=pear prop5=banana
prop1=Chigaco prop2=New York prop3=San Francisco
Now, what do you think, will this print if Ant is invoked like so:
c:\> Ant
I didn't read the specification and I assumed that properties can and are overridden, that is, prop1 would be Chigaco (because it is overriden by build_2.properties, and that prop3 would be San Francisco. However, the output was:
Buildfile: build.xml print_some_properties: [echo] prop1: coke [echo] prop2: New York [echo] prop3: apple [echo] prop4: pear [echo] prop5: banana BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 0 seconds
I missed the following sentence in the Ant manual: Properties are immutable: whoever sets a property first freezes it for the rest of the build; they are most definately not variable.

Using the word "resurrection" in a company name might imply some sort of rebuilding or rebirth.
But for most of the fighters appearing on the Resurrection Fighting Alliance card next month in Carson, their next bout could be the start of something big.
Much like the fact that the burgeoning MMA company will host its first show in Southern California when it stages "RFA 9: Munhoz vs. Curran" on Aug. 16 at the StubHub Center.
And while main-event fighter Jeff Curran -- a late replacement for injured Keoni Koch -- will be attempting to resurrect his lengthy career after a brief stint in the UFC, the rest of the card features a lot of up-and-comers.
"When you add this up, they're all prospects. We're not the kind of event just trying to put bodies in there," RFA president Ed Soares said. "I'd rather cancel a fight than put a (bad) fight on. I'd rather have one less fight on the card than have a (bad) fight."
For Soares, this event is a perfect marriage. He grew up and resides in the South Bay and is one of the most influential managers in MMA. Among his renowned stable are former UFC champions Anderson Silva, Lyoto Machida and Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira.
But among those greats at Black House are several hungry fighters who hope to some day achieve similar greatness.
Pedro Munhoz is one of those young lions. He moved from Sao Paolo, Brazil, to Southern California to train full-time among some of the sport's best in the Gardena gym.
And now he gets to test himself and his 8-0 record against a veteran like Curran for the vacant RFA bantamweight title.
In the co-main event, Hawthorne's Kevin Casey (5-3), another Black House member who recently competed on the UFC reality show "The Ultimate Fighter 17," takes on Casey Ryan (5-0) in a 185-pound contest.
"We have a bunch of Black House guys. It's a nationally televised event but we're still running it like a regional show," said Soares, referring to the organization's broadcast deal with AXS TV. "We're really developing prospects. You might not who they are, but you will know who these guys are."


text: Soapland's seven steps to wedded bliss Wedding bells are ringing for Janine in Friday's EastEnders - here's our guide to having your own soap-style ceremony Comments Written By David Brown 9:15 AM, 21 June 2012 As Janine Butcher-Evans-Malloy heads down the aisle for the fourth time in Friday's hour-long special of EastEnders, we mark the occasion by showing you how to celebrate your nuptials in true soap style... 1. A stag night to remember Forget leaving the lucky groom lashed to a lamppost in a mankini. Instead, organise for a tram to crash into your chosen venue. Remember the look of surprise on Peter Barlow's face? Or, if you're having second thoughts about the choice of best man, do a Tony Gordon and hire a hitman to run him over. Problem solved. 2. Don't get to the church on time Make sure your route is as tortuous as possible. If you can't go the whole Rita Sullivan (getting kidnapped by a loan shark), then strand yourself in a field in the middle of nowhere like Ricky Butcher. He thought he was in France. He was really in Kent. An unconventional mode of transport is obligatory - police car, HGV, you decide. 3. Ditch the wedding march Who needs Mendelssohn and Bach when you can process down the aisle to power ballad Suddenly by Australian rocker Angry Anderson? Sounds unorthodox, but it put pep in the step of Scott and Charlene in Neighbours. Note to groom: we can't all swan around like we're Jason Donovan, so give the feathered mullet a miss. 4. Beware the "lawful impediment" Because the answer is always "yes", especially if Steve McDonald is anywhere near an altar. The ructions that follow - think Tracy Barlow at the business end of Karen's stiletto heel - will make The Jeremy Kyle Show look like a meeting of the Mothers' Union. Put it this way, it'll be insults being thrown rather than confetti. The action kicks off around nine minutes in... 5. Til Death Do Us Part Weddings can be deadly - just picture Stella Crawford with her mascara-streaked Alice Cooper face free-falling from a factory roof. Or Fred Elliott, whose special day came to a sudden end when he keeled over and smashed Audrey's nest of tables. So enjoy every moment of your time together, it could be all too brief. 6. Enlist the local militia No one who attended the union of Dynasty's Amanda and Prince Michael of Moldavia will forget the occasion. The flesh wounds and bullet scars took care of that. So, if you have the resources to hand, why not get paramilitaries to stage a coup, abseil into the chapel and fill it with gunfire? For the full effect, make sure Joan Collins is on the front row in a Nolan Miller power suit. 7. Don't bother booking a honeymoon You'll only be wasting your hard-earned pennies. Ever since Emily Nugent ran out on Leonard Swindley in 1964, brides have been legging it in a blur of lace and tulle. Some do it before the service (Mandy Salter), others wait until they're at the church (Kat Slater, Shelley Unwin, Chas Dingle), while Mel Healy chose to dump her husband on Millennium Eve just a few hours after she'd married him. Well, it was Ian Beale. Watch Janine and Michael's wedding on Friday at 7:30pm on BBC1. Like this? Share it. Facebook Twitter Google Tumblr Pinterest Blogger Reddit VKontakt Print Email

The eurozone financial crisis explained
A crisis that began with the discovery that Greece couldn't pay its debts has threatened to engulf not just the 17 nations that use the euro currency, but the entire 27-nation European Union.
Sponsored Links
Europe's strongest nations such as Germany and France have been the backbone of the bailout of Ireland, Portugal and Greece, which used the euro's AAA credit rating to borrow and spend far beyond their means. But as economic growth slowed, the need for more action has grown.
European banks that lent billions to financially struggling nations could face huge losses, which could in turn cause the crisis to spread to more stable nations and the United States. Demands that EU nations cut generous social benefits and spending programs to help pay their debts are unpopular with many citizens.
Voters have turned out governments in Ireland and Portugal. Protestors in Greece say banks made bad loans and should bear the loss, not citizens. Political movements in some countries say it may be time to pull out of the euro currency.

For the fourth year in a row, a selection of PREMIER Athletes have been named to Pro Wrestling Illustrated's PWI500 list. Headlined by "Mr. Athletic" Jeff Cobb Continue reading
State of the Roster
From PREMIER Wrestling President, John LaRocca
Leading up to PREMIER XIII, injuries to the two originally scheduled participants in the main event, former PREMIER Champion Joe Graves and Gabriel Gallo threw the Championship into a state of flux. With the Championship vacated due to Graves's injury putting him out of action for six months, the top two contenders, both former Champions, "Mr. Athletic" Jeff Cobb and "The God Of War" JR Kratos competed for the gold at PREMIER XIII. Jeff Cobb came out the victor and is now a two-time PREMIER Champion.
I know the rankings after Premier XIII would be tricky. Both the former Champion Joe Graves and Gabriel Gallo have claim to being the number one contender for the PREMIER Championship. Graves had to vacate the Title because of his torn bicep injury and never lost it in the ring. Gallo earned a title shot by keeping his undefeated record intact with a win at PREMIER XII.
Since Joe Graves had to vacate the title because of injury, Joe Graves is officially the number one contender. When PREMIER finalizes the date for PREMIER XIV in the late fall, if Joe Graves is unable to compete at that time, Gabriel Gallo will get the title shot. It was only fair to rank Joe Graves the number one contender and Gabriel Gallo ranked at number two.
Another note regarding the PREMIER rankings: we will be removing those Athletes who have been inactive for the past year. Here now is the official, revised Top 10 Ranking.
Top 10 Rankings
Champion – "Mr. Athletic" Jeff Cobb (7-6-1)
1) "The Soul Fighter" Joe Graves (5-1-1)
2) Gabriel Gallo (5-0-1)
3) "God Of War" JR Kratos (9-4-1)
4) Timothy Thatcher (5-3-1)
5) Marcus Lewis (5-6)
6) Buddy Royal (4-5)
7) "Golden Boy" Dylan Drake (4-5)
8) Alexander Hammerstone (3-0)
9) "The Butcher" Tyler Bateman (3-3)
10) Douglas James (1-1)
PREMIER XIII Results
PREMIER XIII – July 17th, Gilroy CA
1) "Ace" Buddy Royal (4-5) pinned Levi Shapiro (1-1) with the figure four leg lock in 12:51. Shapiro passed out from the pain and shoulders were counted down.

3) Nicole Savoy (4-3) submitted Desi de Rata (0-1) in 4:21. With this win, Savoy earned another shot at the PREMIER Women Athletes Championship.
4) "The Butcher" Tyler Bateman (3-3) pinned "The Flying Lion" Marcus Lewis (5-6) in 11:59 with a downward elbow
5) "Mr. Athletic" Jeff Cobb (7-6-1) pinned "The God Of War" JR Kratos (9-4-1) in 13:18 with the "Tour Of The Islands" slam to win the vacated Premier Championship for the second time.
6) "Queen Of Spades" Shayna Baszler (2-0) submitted RAZE in 8:29 to win the PREMIER Women Athletes Championship.

Running Selenium Headless
Our dog food Pulse server, which spends all day building itself, is a headless box. This presented no challenge for the Pulse 1.x series of releases, as our builds are all scripted and don't require any GUI tools. With Pulse 2.0, however, things changed. As mentioned in my previous post, this new release has a whole new acceptance test suite based on Selenium. The problem is: Selenium runs in a real browser, and that browser requires a display.
Fortunately, the dog food server is also a Linux box. Thus there is no need to add in a full X setup with requisite hardware just to have Selenium running. This is thanks to the magic of Xvfb – the X virtual framebuffer. Basically, this is a stripped back X server that maintains a virtual display in memory. Hence no actual video hardware or driver is needed, and we can keep things simple.
Setting things up is straightforward. First, install Xvfb:
on Debian/Ubuntu; or
on Fedora/RedHat. Then, choose a display number that is unlikely to ever clash (even if you add a real display later) – something high like 99 should do. Run Xvfb on this display, with access control off1:
Now you need to ensure that your display is set to 99 before running the Selenium server (which itself launches the browser). The easiest way to do this is to export DISPLAY=:99 into the environment for Selenium. First, make sure things are working from the command line like so:
$ firefox
Firefox should launch without error, and stay running (until you kill it with Control-C or similar). You won't see anything of course! If things go well, then you need to modify the way you launch the Selenium server to ensure the DISPLAY is set. There are many ways to do this, in our Pulse setup we actually use a resource as it is a convenient way to modify the build environment.
An alternative which may suit some setups is to use the xvfb-run wrapper to launch your Selenium server. I opted against this as Pulse has resources to modify the environment and this way I do not need to change the actual build scripts at all. However if you are not using Pulse (shame! 🙂 ) then you may want to look into it.
1 If you are worried about access on your network, then using -ac long-term is not a good idea. Once you have things working, I would suggest tightening things up by turning access control on.

We are now accepting reservations to join the Passover Village 2015 (5775 by the Hebrew Calendar).
The 2015 Passover Village Retreat
9 AM Friday, April 10th through 11 AM Sunday, April 12th.
If you cannot arrive on Wednesday or Thursday, arrive early enough (7 or 7:30 am) on Friday morning to set up your personal campsite and join the Opening Council at 9:00 am.
Are you Eagle? Buffalo? Lion? Raven? Lamb? All of these?
This year's kavanah (intentional spiritual focus) explores our personal relations with animals, tribal symbolism, animals in kashrut, and more. Animals have been part of the Tribal Earth-based Hebraic experience from the time of Creation, and the Passover story is replete with animals, including snakes, frogs, locusts, lambs, lions and wolves (aka wild beasts, Plague #4). Join our Passover Village 2015 mountain camp to experience an Exodus in which animals are a source of awe and magic, ritual and totem, awareness and play, just as they were for our ancestors.
P.S. Take a look elsewhere in the Passover Village Blog to view notes on this year's rich study of the animals http://passovervillage.blogspot.com/
LOCATION: This year we will be returning to the Angeles National Forest (specific location with registration), a pleasant drive about 90 minutes from Los Angeles and less than an hour via a two-lane paved highway (HWY 2) from the La Canada-Flintridge area. The group camp at 5000' elevation is similar in amenities to our site in Joshua Tree (which was at 3000' elevation) but in the forest vs. the desert. Any passenger car can easily make the trip as the elevation gain is very gradual and the road is in good condition (and if your car made it up the steep grades from Palm Springs to Yucca Valley, it will be just fine here). Bonus features include running water available right in the kitchen area and a large communal fire circle. And, there's a great spot for our community mishkan (tent).
* As mentioned above, our group site has running water in the kitchen area.
* Multiple picnic tables and a community barbecue pit
* Pit toilet in a weather-protected brick building
* There are sites for individual tents scattered throughout the group site.
* This is a family-friendly site, however it is in the National Forest and precautions are advised for the occasional bear (not as likely during our busy season, but possible).
* As mentioned above, this site is NOT a very short drive from stores, motels or B&B accommodations. While these are available in La Canada/Flintridge, note that each trip to or from the Village site will require a 45-minute drive each way and is not recommended.
* Exact location and directions will be provided after registration. Please don't plan to "just drop by."
UPDATED COST FOR 2015: To encourage participation of families with children, this year our requested donation is $80 for adults (13-and-over), while children 12 and under will be free! Following the tradition of "Let all who are hungry come and eat," no one will be turned away for lack of funds. Firewood will be provided for us by Michael and Sandra so no need to purchase and transport one bundle per person as before! Thanks, Michael and Sandra!
MEALS: Meals provided by Passover Village will be "kosher-style" and free from leaven. Vegetarian options will be available. Let us know of any other dietary limitations.
Friday Night: An outreach to Villagers who might like to coordinate a Shabbat meal and/or service will be forthcoming.
Saturday Night: Catered Seder meal
Other Meals and Snacks: Bring food and kitchen/cooking items for your own enjoyment. (Meal-time sharing is encouraged.)
We agree to respect and care for ourselves, each other, the community and the land. To safeguard the freedom and sanctity of time and space in the Passover Village, the Leadership Council has endeavored to balance the needs of individuals with those of the community. To that end, the following updates are effective with Passover Village 2013.
By registering for this retreat, attendees also agree to the following:
Photography and Recordings:
-- When we are gathered In Community with a common focus, or "In Session," put away cameras and recording devices.
-- When we are not gathered as a focused community, having lunch, talking with others, etc., photos and recording are allowed within bounds of respect, privacy and permission: Be discrete, non-intrusive, and respectful of all participants when taking any photographs or recording; some may prefer not to be photographed or recorded at all.
-- Do not publish photos or recordings in public media
-- If unsure about a photo or recording, do not take or publish it.Personal Displays and Self Promotion:
In the spirit of a retreat, so that we might leave behind the things of the day to day world, please do not bring personal displays or promotional items into community areas.
Thank you!

1. The NSA is building a massive data center in Utah to read every email you'll ever send. Many of us are aware that little of what we say on social networks is really private. But you'd think your emails would be safe from prying eyes — especially those of your government. Not so, once the government completes work on a top-secret Utah data center reportedly built to spy on civilian communications.
The $2 billion facility, slated to be complete by September 2013, is allegedly designed to be able to filter through yottabytes (10^24 bytes) of data. Put into perspective, that's greater than the estimated total of all human knowledge since the dawn of mankind. If leaked information about the complex is correct, nothing will be safe from the facility's reach, from cell phone communications to emails to what you just bought with your credit card. And encryption won't protect you — one of the facility's priorities is breaking even the most complex of codes.

Brixels Makes Custom Portraits Out of Black and White LEGO
Customize Your Own Black and White Lego Art!
Lego bricks aren't just for building mini cities (or real-life houses, or kitchens, or USB hubs) anymore, they can be used to make art! These celebrity portraits, for example, are all made from black, white and grey Lego bricks. Pieced together by a Lego fanatic who started his own company, you can get your hands on a custom Lego mosaic blueprint for yourself or a friend just by sending in a photo.
Called Brixels, the company will send you your own customized Lego map and all the pieces you'll need to complete your DIY project. This would be great for a hands-on holiday gift for your crafty friends, or as a cute gifting project to keep your nieces and nephews occupied at Christmas. But, if you don't have the time or patience to dive into a jigsaw puzzle-like task, Brixels can build your art and ship it completely finished. Prices start at around $300, so choose your photos wisely — there's no going back after it's printed!
To see more of Brixel's celebrity portrait work, just
