More than 200 child safeguarding cases in Kingston had to be re-assessed following the borough's inadequate Ofsted inspection in 2012.
Director of children's services Nick Whitfield, pictured, revealed in an update to Kingston Council's scrutiny panel on Monday the amount of work his department had to carry out following the disastrous inspection was "scary".
A total of 400 cases were flagged up as potentially below standard, with 208 being completely re-assessed due to the poor quality of work, he said.
Mr Whitfield added the service had improved significantly, with more permanent social workers and managers now employed, and a more transparent way of working in place.
Councillor and panel member Rachel Reid said after the meeting: "We were all totally shocked when the Ofsted results came out.
"You do think to yourself 'how did we take our eye off the ball like that?' "The only thing to say is that we are miles away from where we were.
"It was really good to hear there's a lot of work going in to making sure there is a single point of access for anybody that feels they need to talk to someone about children's services – not necessarily just safeguarding.
"But Nick made it very clear that, while we're well on the way, let's not start thinking we're there."

nathanddrews - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkI've had the Thermaltake Tt MEKA G1 (red LED backlit, Cherry MX Black) for several months now and I love it. Typing is a complete joy and gaming has been flawless.
It's my first modern mechanical keyboard. I bought it to replace my old (1988!) mechanical AT connector keyboard - which just doesn't work well on my newer system that lacks legacy ports. Using adapters to go AT --> PS/2 --> USB introduced some issues with multiple key presses. I'm sure there's another solution, but now it can be passed down to one of my other machines where maybe it will last another 25 years. :-) Reply

Ninhalem - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkLogitech has been pissing me off recently with their apparent refusal to go to mechanical keys on all their gaming products. That is clearly the path that the market is taking, but they are dragging their feet. I love my G13 key pad, but a lot of the keys are becoming non-responsive because of the piece-of-crap membrane that is under them. I have long since gone with mechanical key boards as my primary typing interface (Das Keyboard gen 2, ErgoDox), and the G13 is the only thing left that is membrane in my house. Unless they get it together, then I'm switching to Razer; at least they listen to their customer's comments. Reply
Mr Perfect - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkAgreed. Dustin is being very diplomatic by calling their boards "borderline flawed". They are DOA. Reply
HisDivineOrder - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkWhy should they? They have huge contracts with big box retailers, they sell tons of keyboards at absurd pricing and they don't have to pay the huge costs that mechanical keyboards would cause for them. As long as they act as though mechanical DOES NOT EXIST across their lines, then they can continue to sell most people on using membrane keyboards because no one will know an alternative is out there.
If Logitech were to bring up the topic of mechanical keyboards by having some that have it, they'd charge more than they typically do for membrane keyboards, which would mean they'd be outrageously high. Suddenly, an area where others are stronger (ie., mechanical keyboards) would be an issue for a great many people for whom it's NOT an issue now.
It's like a politician who is weak on a subject avoiding that subject altogether rather than be cornered into taking a position one way or another; and alienating an audience, pushing them to the opponent. It's the same with Logitech. They know they can get away with not discussing mechanical keyboards and a large portion of the population won't know any different.
How many mechanical keyboards do you see in Target? In Wal-mart? In the stores where people are? Now how many Logitech keyboards do you see? Reply
brotherfranciz - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkThe simple fact is that most people don't care about mechanical keyboards. Logitech are happy to be fashionably late to the party because they have the financial backing (and their relatively well-known brand name) to grab a large chunk of the market share, but only when there is finally enough demand for mechanical keyboards to make financial sense. Reply
Dentons - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkLogitech makes a fantastic Mechanical keyboard, the G710+. It's often available for less than the retail pricse of these membrane keyboards.
I agree that they're profit taking, but I believe you're wrong that most users won't notice. Once they're released, all it will take is a single internet search on any of these new membrane keyboards to return hundreds of underwhelming comments. "Gamer products" like these cheap membrane keyboards will end up foisted upon kids who's parents buy them as gifts. Those who are spending their own money or do even a minute or research will tend to stay away.
The Logitech G19s and Logitech G510s are not horrible keyboards, but they are a terrible value for money. Lots of companies make far better keyboards for less money, including Logitech themselves. I can wholeheartedly recommend the Logitech G710+. It often costs less and is worlds better than these. Reply
Sabresiberian - Sunday, August 04, 2013 - linkAh didn't know about the 710 - but it only has 6 macro keys, so it wouldn't have done for me.
Why didn't they advertise it with the rest of the gaming keyboards they advertised a couple of months ago? Like, they made a big deal of what was basically a refresh of their previous lineup, and totally failed to mention that yes indeed they did have a mechanical gaming keyboard. Instead, they made excuses for their lineup not using mechanical switches.
Well I only paid $10 more then the 710+ (which is $149.99 at Newegg right now) and got the additional 12 keys I wanted with the Corsair K95, and I believe the build quality is a notch better (though I do like Logitech and have never had a problem with their products). Reply
Dentons - Monday, August 05, 2013 - linkThe Logitech G710+ is often discounted to as little as $100, both at Amazon and Newegg.
It has back-lighting, it has brown switches, it has silencer o-rings. Very few keyboards ship with silenced brown switches, certainly none that are selling for as little as $100.
It does have just 6 macro keys, but it has 3 memory keys, making for a total of 18 customizable keys. Not a problem for me, as I use it for typing, not gaming. Unless you need more than 6 dedicated macro keys, it's a fantastic keyboard. I do have two complaints. One is that the back-lighting on the top number row only lights the numbers, not the shift alternates of "!@#$%^&*()". The other is that the macro keys are too close to the standard keyboard, making for a lot of mistaken CTRL, shift and Esc hits. I just programmed my macros to the adjacent keys, so even if I hit them by mistake it selects the key I intended.
I find mechanical gaming keyboards like this aren't just the best keyboards for gamers, they're the best quality keyboards for those of us that write a lot of text. The silenced brown switches of the G710+ may make it the best typist keyboard on the market. Reply
Andrew LB - Thursday, February 13, 2014 - linkperhaps you missed the fact that Logitech does in fact sell a mechanical keyboard, and even though they're very late to the party... it's still the top selling mechanical keyboard on Amazon and Newegg. Not to mention the G710+ is probably the best mechanical keyboard widely available. i say widely because the only higher quality mechanical keyboard i've used is a ducky shine, but they're a b*tch to get.
As for your rant... WTF are you talking about? All that typing about how in your mind, Logitech wont even go near the thought of a mechanical keyboard.... while they've had one available for months now.
As for your walmart and Target comment... that is a decision made by Target and Walmart, not the keyboard manufacturer. High end, niche market products are rarely sold in those stores because it costs too much to stock an ample supply of them in the thousands of stores. They still sell these high end items, but on their website where they keep them centralized and can avoid the large investment to stock stores. It's very similar to the way Home Depot and Lowes deal with high end power tools. I recently bought a high end, made in Switzerland random-orbit sander from Bosch that fell into this same category of being a niche market, so I had to order it online because no store stocked it. Seriously though... how many DIY'ers buy $300 sanders? The same goes for $150+ keyboards. Reply
Death666Angel - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkStill love the G15 1st generation I use. :D It's not the best keyboard and it cost a pretty penny, but everything it has works. And using the panel for my PC vital stats is great (GPU/CPU temperatures and clocks, voltages, memory usage etc.).I tried the K90 MMO edition when it was pretty cheap (cheaper than what I paid for the G15 back in the day) and I loved the feel and finish of it. It's also much better as a keyboard. It came with one LED just completely broken and 2 others which sometimes worked and sometimes just flickered. And since many reports about the K90 state that people had to go through multiple exchanges to get a keyboard without faults, I just sent it back and got my money back, because I don't have the time for that. So, while it is a good keyboard and feels great to type on and looks amazing. It just has horrible QC issues in my experience (that I didn't see talked about in the AT reviews) which just break the product for me. When there is a K90 with an LCD panel, I'll probably get that, as that would be the perfect replacement for my G15. But until then, since I am not paid for my writing, I will stick with the keyboard that works for the time being. :D Reply
Death666Angel - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkOh, but at least they fixed the membrane keys. That was seriously annoying. I don't mind a membrane keyboard (as I use one right now), but switching between the feel of mechanical and membrane on the same keyboard was just jarringly annoying. Reply
Death666Angel - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkAnd here in Germany, the K70 is just 12€ cheaper than the K95 and 28€ more expensive than the outgoing K90... ouch. Reply
Dentons - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkWhy is Logitech releasing unbelievably expensive membrane keyboards?
Logitech makes an excellent mechanical keyboard that often sells for around $100. Was the G710+ mechanical too expensive to manufacture? Perhaps not enough margin?
Very odd decision. Reply
jrs77 - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkI don't know where you're buying these keyboards, but the Steelseries 6Gv2 is available for €80 in German online-stores, same like the Corsair K60, while the K70 costs €130 and the K95 €140, all including 19% VAT.
The quality of the SS 6Gv2 is absolutely where it needs to be and the keys are perfectly fine, even if you're tying alot during the day. The angle is perfectly fine aswell, and you need no tabs to change the tilt. Maybe your desk and chair isn't setup ergonomically enough, so that yoyu'd need to tilt your keyboard.
The CherryMX Red switches are too soft, and the clicky Browns or Blues are wrecking my nerves, so the MX Blacks are the best switches Cherry offers imho. Reply
Flunk - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkIn regards to membrane keyboards, some people prefer nearly silent and mushy keyboards. Reply
Ninhalem - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkI would be interested to see a poll of people who prefer membrane over mechanical. Reply
3ogdy - Friday, August 02, 2013 - link"I'm displeased with the L-shaped Enter key, though, which forces the backslash key down next to the right Shift key and thus shrinks the footprint of that key."
ACTUALLY, when I first saw the keyboard on this page I was like:
FINALLY, a NORMAL keyboard with a properly shaped Enter key. I've used many keyboards and I just have to say I TOTALLY HATE the ones with the small Enter key because:
1. It's much easier to miss it when you're not looking at the keyboard(I never really look at it while typing)
2.It's much easier to hit both Enter and a key around it, since the first one is so freaking small.
The size of that RSHIFT key is really too small though, especially after having seen properly designed keyboards featuring both the Enter and RSHIFT keys in their full-size shape.
Having said that, in my own personal opinion, the SteelSeries G6v2 couldn't be uglier.
But hey, you're paying for the fact that it's a mechanical keyboard.
And I honestly find the need to use combos in order to get multimedia functionality REALLY disappointing - even though I'm already used to it because of the diNovo Edge.
Just a few days ago I was thinking about how the G-series keyboards have evolved - disappointingly. Seriously, I think a lot of people enjoy less clutter on their tables. We buy wireless mice and keyboards and only buy wired hardware when there's enough functionality added so that the trade is worth it. But having a THICK second cable running off my keyboard across the office just for a (mostly useless) display is just unacceptable. Don't get me wrong - I own the G15 II and I find the display quite useful - especially given the support from applications such as AIDA64, FRAPS, the RSS reader, Media Display..etc - but,really, they could've just sleeved the wires (making on big cable would've meant reducing it's flexibility which isn't something we'd want) while keeping them closer together. I know the display cable with the power brick is detachable, but that doesn't mean they couldn't have routed the wire inside the keyboard so that all cables would come out from one single freaking location.
That's a HUGE turn off for me. Reply
3ogdy - Friday, August 02, 2013 - link"But having a THICK second cable running off my keyboard across the office just for a (mostly useless) display is just unacceptable"
What I mean is...having that display is useful, but by far nto useful enough in order for someone to have a thick dedicated cable running off the keyboard and plugging into an outlet. Seriously. Reply
bznotins - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkI had the Steelseries keyboard and the non-standard layout drove me bonkers. I use the left windows key all the time for shortcuts and you can't even reconfigure the fancy function key that took its place to act like a windows key instead.
So I gave that keyboard away and instead am typing this on a Rosewill mechanical with Cherry MX Blues. Heaven. Reply
Friendly0Fire - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkI'm sad it took Corsair a whole iteration to fix the F-keys. It was the sole reason I went for the G710+ instead of their new K series (well that and the fact I was more attracted by Browns than Reds). Reply
wavetrex - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkIn your comments about the SteelSeries G6v2 you left out the fact that it's built like a tank, a keyboard made to last probably more than yourself. You could kill somebody if you hit them hard enough with this keyboard. It has an all-metal base and very sturdy casing. All the fragile displays and other useless crap on other keyboards will simply disintegrate if you drop it on the floor.

geok1ng - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkAs a MMO gamer i decided to give the Genius Imperator ( non-Pro version) a try. I do know its membrane, but cheap price tag ( payed ~USD 55 in Brazil, compare with ~USD 200 for a G70) and 18 macros to program have made me a happy owner. if you want fancy full programmable RGB colors and an USB hub there is the Imperator Pro, but its too expensive for a membrane keyboard, even if it costs less than Logitech's alternatives.

Wolfpup - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkI can't believe anyone's trying to sell anything but a $20 keyboard without mechanical switches.
I've switched my last PC over to mechanical and there's no way in hell I'm putting up with membrane ever again.
I just wish I could try all the switch types... I've got Browns, which are great, but what if I would like blue, or black, or white, or red better?
Oh well, brown does rock though. Reply
thisjustin - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkIt's not exactly the same as typing on a keyboard but you can pick up a sampler of the different cherry switches from wasd keyboards. Good way to get a better idea of what you like before you spend 100+ on a keyboard.

MiLuong - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkI've sampled a few of these from various teammates, and I'm only slightly impressed with the SteelSeries one. the others, I don't mind the feel of the keys~ but the keyboards themselves are SO bulky. Personally, I have a Rosewill Mechanical KB (the RK-9100 CMX Blues) and I still like mine better. The SteelSeries one is the only one that is almost comparable to my Rosewill one for a similar price point. I'll stick to mine. Reply
WeaselITB - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkFunny, I'm the exact opposite. L-shaped Enter keys need to die and never return. Try working in a domain or networking environment and suddenly your | and \ are not where they're supposed to be, cuz you're now on a different keyboard. Ugh. Reply

Azethoth - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkThe Corsairs have rollover, even with USB:
"The K90 features increased performance with a 20-key rollover implementation on USB at a blazing fast 1ms (1000 reports per second) reporting rate."
The K95 docs do not mention a limit using "full rollover" instead.
I could not tell you how it compares to PS/2, but it seems adequate on my K90. Even 20 keys is almost full faceroll support except at the ends when the side of your head makes contact. Reply
erple2 - Friday, August 02, 2013 - linkHas anyone tried and compared the buckling spring mechanical keyboards (like the Unicomp ones) with the cherry MX mechanical keyboards, and could they comment? Reply
thisjustin - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkFirst Mechanical Keyboard I bought was a vintage IBM Model M with the bucking springs. And I loved that keyboard. I've had cherry blue and brown switch keyboards since then and the blue switches are pretty similar when compared to the bucking springs. Both are tactile and clicky, and the amount of force to press the buttons feels close enough that it isn't too hard to switch between the two for me. The sound is a little different... I don't know how to describe but it is a little higher pitched and a bit more ?snippity? with the cherry blues compared to the bucking springs. I'd say you would probably like cherry blue switches. Although honestly the main reasons I still don't use the Model M are the modern connectivity allows me to use it on more systems (USB), the smaller footprint of the keyboard (I want a TKL for my next keyboard), and better aethetics (black > beige). The Unicomp keyboards I'm guessing are just as good as the original Model M so it's just a matter of personal preference which keyboard you will prefer. Reply
Azethoth - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkCould you do us a favor and refuse to review any gaming keyboard that has textured WASD but no love for the actually correct ESDF layout.
Also for manufacturers: the first one to offer MS Natural (original) curves with K95 mechanical keys and G keys and media controls gets my purchase of 4 keyboards (2 for me, 2+ for family) and undying loyalty. Reply
CZroe - Saturday, August 03, 2013 - linkWith a title like "Capsule Keyboard Roundup," am I being unreasonable to expect some mention of "capsule" in the article? I have an older Logitech G15 and I know a lot about mechanical vs. membrane/rubber-dome and yet I have no idea what a "capsule keyboard" is. A search in page only finds the title. Reply
Sabresiberian - Sunday, August 04, 2013 - linkLogitech seriously did miss the boat when they made their new keyboards without using mechanical keys. There was a small army of us (apparently too small) that was asking for just that. I've been a G15 user for the last four+ years and wasn't tempted to replace them, they are working fine to this day so I had no actual need to, but if Logitech had made a G15 with all mechanical switches, I'd have sprung for at least one of them, and if I liked it would have bought another.
Along comes Corsair, and they make the keyboard I was asking Logitech to make - but wait, the macro keys aren't mechanical? But unlike Logitech they LISTENED and changed it! I always thought well of Corsair, but they turned me into a real fan by doing that, and so I bought a K95.
The only bad thing is now I don't like my G15s so much, and want to spend another $159 on another K95 for my second computer, heh. The K95 is beautiful, functions flawlessly, and I can actually type faster on it. I love the Cherry MX reds. I'm the kind of guy that uses all of those 18 macro keys playing World of Warcraft, so the keyboard is perfect for me (as was the G15 before I tried the mechanical keys).
I'm actually fine with the price of the keyboard, because I believe it will last me the rest of my life (I'm 57). The only thing that will cause me to replace it is the same thing that caused me to replace my G15s - if something I think has a good chance of being better comes along, I'll be tempted. However, I seriously doubt that's even possible because the K95 is so good and fits my usage so well.
My only complaint - and for me it is very minor - is the special keys for WASD and the numbers 1-6 had to be purchased separately. They also included a Q and E in the kit they sent me, which was nice, and I love the look and feel of specially textured keys, so as I said, a very minor complaint. Reply
maximumGPU - Thursday, August 08, 2013 - linktotally agreed, logitech messed it up by not going mechanical.

Yes, yes, yes. I would buy at least three keyboards like that. Heck, even a Natural-style mechanical without the fancy extra keys would get a purchase from me. I can't understand how, if these Cherry switches are so much better for typing, why aren't there more ergonomic keyboards for them? It seems like the options are regular styling, like these, or a large jump up to something like TECK or Kinesis that Jerrod recently reviewed. Where's the in-between? Reply

Allow me to third this. I don't use anything but MS Natural KB's. I'd love to see more advanced options for this style. Reply

The torque converter clutch can stick "on" after extended freeway driving causing the engine to stall when coming to a stop. Our technicians tell us when this occurs, the engine usually will restart and stall when put into gear. After allowing about twenty minutes for the engine and transmission to cool down, the engine will start and the transmission will operate normally. Replacing the torque converter clutch solenoid, transmission filter, and fluid will generally correct this issue.

ORLANDO, Fla. - A Seminole County woman says she is nervous after someone stole her identity and ended up charging thousands on credit cards in her name at stores in Portland, Ore.
Police said they still don't know how someone lifted the woman's identity, but authorities in Portland have released several photos of the impostor.
The local victim, who didn't want to be named, said she found out about the identity theft when the fraud department from Target called her to verify some purchases.
"They asked me if I had been in their Portland store on February 17, and I said I had obviously not. I live in Florida," she said.
Portland police said the thief racked up thousands in purchases at Target, Kohl's and Macy's and even bought nine iPhones within 24 hours.
The victim wanted to get her story out to make others aware that no one is safe from identity theft. The woman and her lawyer hope someone can identify the impostor, but officers say this case may never be resolved.
Police said like all identity theft, it's a crime that is extremely hard to prosecute.
"Our white collar crimes investigators have the reports and they will unfortunately put them with a lot of other reports we get about ID theft," said Portland Police Spokesman Pete Simpson.

The nexus 4 only came out in November and did not get properly stocked until February. Why do you think they will release a new nexus phone not even 6 months after release. The trends show that they release October November time. You can expect a new nexus 7 refresh and maybe nexus 10!

Seems all the major tech/mobile events have been less than extraordinaire this year. With my disappointment with CES and MWC this year, I was really expecting a lot from Google I/O. I still believe Google has some surprises in store for us...just wait and see!

Longtime Cubs slugger Sammy Sosa has gone from corking his bat…to virtual corkboards, as evidenced by his Pinterest account, which is rapidly becoming an online sensation.
Like many sluggers of his era, Sosa is attempting to rehab his steroid-tainted image, and apparently this was the next best thing to becoming someone's major league hitting coach.
Now, the vast majority of you gentlemen out there are probably thinking, "What is this Pinterest I keep hearing about from women and self-aggrandizing social media gurus?"
Please allow me explain. Pinterest is actually just a web site. A web site you'll think is really stupid. Now that you're up to speed on what Pinterest is, back to Sosa.
The best part about Sosa's Pinterest page is that most of its visitors are using it solely as an opportunity to rip on him. Of course, when it's loaded with images of Sosa posing "naturally" like this one, how can you not?
Approximately 90 percent of Sammy's "pins" feature him in a pukey mustard sweater, resulting in comments ranging from wondering if he's now a real estate agent to questioning his manhood.
I especially like the "Whaddya say you and me polish my desk?" remark. Perhaps Sammy's former Cub teammate, Moises Alou, can help with that.
Some of the rest of the highlights include shots at Sosa's Ken doll-esque hairdo:
And visits from infamous serial killers like the Son of Sam (oh, the irony):
And of course, the obligatory comments on performance enhancing drugs.
Sosa's association with steroids isn't the only thing that's damaged his image though. Apparently, he's also a few dozen molested kids and nose jobs shy of being confused with the King of Pop.
Yes, this is the real Sammy Sosa. And this is his Pinterest.

The thigh muscles (quadriceps) help
keep the kneecap (patella) stable and in place. Weak quadriceps increase the
risk of
patellar tracking disorder.
Ligaments and
tendons also help stabilize the patella. If these are too tight or too loose,
you have a greater risk of patellar tracking disorder.
The goals
of nonsurgical treatment of patellar tracking problems are to reduce
symptoms, increase quadriceps strength and endurance, and return to normal
function. Exercises for patellar tracking disorder are not complicated and can
be done at home in about 20 minutes a day.
Be sure to stay on your exercise program. You may
not notice much improvement in your symptoms right away, and recovery can take
several months. Problems can come back if you don't keep your strength and
first, following an injury or a flare-up of symptoms of patellar tracking
disorder, knee activity should be reduced. Rest your knee by avoiding activity
that increases your symptoms. Exercises should begin as the symptoms
Steps you can take to help treat patellar tracking
disorder include:
Surgery is usually needed to treat patellar
tracking disorder.
In most cases, nonsurgical treatment including
rest and quadriceps-strengthening exercises done in combination with taping or
bracing the knee and use of ice and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
(NSAIDs) will resolve a patellar tracking disorder.
Continue to Why?
Nonsurgical treatment, especially strength and
flexibility exercises, is usually all that is needed for patellar tracking
disorder. But be sure to seek diagnosis as soon as you notice symptoms,
so that you can begin the right treatment. In general, the longer you have a
patellar tracking disorder, the longer treatment will take.
If a
patellar tracking disorder is left untreated or treated without success, it can
lead to
chondrosis or
osteoarthritis of the knee.
Ignoring the symptoms of a patellar tracking disorder
can have severe long-term consequences.
If a patellar tracking disorder is left
untreated, it can lead to chondrosis, a softening or loss of the cartilage that
covers the back of the kneecap, which can cause pain during activities that
require bending of the knee. It can also lead to osteoarthritis of the knee, a
progressive breaking down of cartilage that is a major cause of disability in
older adults.
Continue to How?
Correct diagnosis is of great importance in designing an exercise or
rehabilitation program. The treatment you receive and the exercise program you
use to rehabilitate your knee should be developed specifically for your
condition. Some doctors will recommend using a brace or a taping technique to
keep your kneecap in proper alignment, in addition to an exercise program. Be
sure to closely follow the instructions from your doctor or physical
At first, following an injury or a flare-up of symptoms
of patellar tracking disorder, knee activity should be reduced. Overuse and
trauma are common causes of knee pain. And resting your knee will help relieve
pain. Exercises should begin as the symptoms resolve.
Your doctor
or physical therapist should help you decide what exercises to do. He or she
will probably have you start with one or two exercises and add others over
time. Your physical therapist may use biofeedback during some exercises to help
you learn to contract certain muscles, especially the inner muscle of your
The following exercises may be the first ones that your doctor or physical therapist recommends.
When your doctor or physical therapist thinks your knee is ready for more intensive exercise, he or she may recommend some of the following:
Note: For straight-leg raise exercises, your physical
therapist may have you add light ankle weights as you become stronger.
Remember to limit the bend of your knee to a 30-degree angle at
first. When your knee is bent past this point, your kneecap will have more
contact with the thighbone, causing more pressure, pain, and possible cartilage
The first phase of strengthening your quadriceps
should involve using weight-lifting equipment and bending your knee through a
30-degree angle.
After you have adequately rested your knee and
symptoms resolve, the first phase of strengthening your quadriceps focuses on
isometric exercise.
Stretching your hip can help ease a patellar tracking
If you have tightness in structures such as
your quadriceps, iliotibial band, or hamstrings, you can develop a patellar
tracking disorder. All these muscles act on both your hip and your knee, so
stretching around your hip can help loosen them and help ease patellar tracking

A Brazilian family received some information about Islam at Kurtulus Mosque in Nevsehir in Urgup and listened to the Qur'an for around 40 minutes.
Father Jorge Bonassa (50), mother Edva Bonassa (53) and the children Andre Bonassa (20) and Marcelo Bonassa (16) asked some questions about Islam to Mr Ismail Oruc, the imam of the Mosque. Ozay Onur, the guide, explained: "The imam's close interest and kind manners and his recital of the Qur'an with his beautiful voice as well as giving information about the religion of Islam impressed the family. Their friends in Brazil have already converted Islam, that is how they came to have interest in Islam. They asked us for a Qur'an translation in Portugal language. We presented them an English translation of the Qur'an."
Mr Jorge Bonassa stated that they received very good information about Islam religion and were really impressed by the local people's kind manners towards them. "The real face of Islam is peace. That is what we understand here and we became very happy."

GALVESTON COUNTY, Texas - A two-week investigation led to the arrest of a Dickinson woman.
Michelle Lopez, 39, was arrested on a felony warrant on Thursday.
Investigators were looking into the theft of more than $250,000 from Bolivar Barge Cleaning Services in Santa Fe.
Lopez has been accused of forging numerous business checks and depositing them to her personal account.
Investigators sai, the proceeds of the theft were used by Lopez for extravagant purchases including a 2013 Dodge Challenger, jewelry and designer purses and clothing.
A search warrant at her home resulted in the recovery of the Dodge Challenger, several pieces of expensive jewelry, and numerous designer items.
Lopez has been charged with theft over $200,000 and is being held on a bond of $500,000.
Lopez was on felony probation for an identical offense committed in 2005 at a La Marque business, police said.
Investigators believe Lopez acted alone and family members were unaware of the theft.

Beastie Boys Live – PART 2
Not exactly hot on the heels of Beastie Boys Live – PART 1, but here is the next installment nonetheless. If you haven't already grabbed Live in Australia '99 and the Demo version of Paul's Boutique do that first. Next up is Live in London – Wembley Stadium, also from 1999. Sound quality is the name of the game here so this is another one that is likely direct from soundboard or possibly from the feed that went out to radio.
Once again these photos were taken by Maya Hayuk, a fantastic artist whose work I am a huge fan of.

The Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) is celebrating French music and culture with a two-day event. Experience France takes place July 13-14 and features music, activities and a special menu in the museum café that will have visitors feeling like they left the country.
Last year MIM had enormous success with their Bastille Day, which fueled the inspiration to make it a two-day event. "Experience France" is part of MIM's "Unity Through Diversity" partnership with Phoenix-based Petsmart and Alliance François of Greater Phoenix. The leading message behind the partnership it that music is the language of the soul and the celebration of all the cultural diversities that music portrays.
There will be live performances on both days that are free with general admission. Cécile Hortensia, the Phoenix based singer and songwriter who combines bilingual poetry with music, will be performing songs that celebrate both her French and American heritages. Hortensia will also be performing songs that were made famous by Edith Pief in honor of the 50th anniversary of her passing.
ZAZU, a gypsy-jazz Arizona band, which performs improvisational songs in the spirit of guitarist Django Reinhart. Also performing will be Dr. James Gerber, music associate for All Saints Episcopal Church in Phoenix, who will play French masterpieces from the 16th to 20th century on MIM's Rathke "visible" organ.
Guests can take a tour of MIM's French exhibit and a showcase of French instruments in the Mechanical Music Gallery, by MIM Europe Curator Dr. Kathleen Wiens. The tour is free with admission and will educate guests on music, history and the instruments of France.
Guests can also learn French marching rhythms with a a special installment of MIM's "Get the Beat! World Drumming Series." The class is $12 a person and will highlight French drumming traditions in a fun, family-friendly way. To register for the drumming series, email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Complete your French experience with French entrees and wine specials at Café Allegro. On the menu are items like Coq au vin, goat cheese quiche, macarpone -and-date filled crepe, ham and cheese on a French baguette and macarons. Café Allegro will also have specials on Pillsbury wine Viognier and 2012 Chenin Blanc.

Simple technique yields complex structures
In a discovery with potential uses from electronics to biology, Princeton engineers have invented a simple procedure for making microscopically small particles assemble themselves into complex materials.
The technique allows scientists to force mixtures of tiny beads to crystallize into tailored structures that could be ideal for channeling laser light through next-generation telecommunications devices or for mechanically sorting DNA molecules as part of cheaper, faster biological tests.

A jealous boyfriend launched a drunken knife attack on his girlfriend's ex because he wrongly thought they had got back together.
Mark Sprules, 40, had been drinking heavily when he threatened to throw out his partner after seeing her sitting in a pub with her former boyfriend.
And when she turned up at the flat Sprules set about the man, brandishing a bread knife he had picked up inside.
But after hearing he was addressing his problems and reading a letter from the woman a judge imposed a suspended sentence today.
Hannah Squire, prosecuting, told Swindon Crown Court that Sprules and Marie Cunningham had been in the Kings Arms in Trowbridge on Saturday, October 12.
They were also with her former boyfriend Jonathan Annal and later in the evening the defendant went back to the flat he shared with Miss Cunningham.
But when she didn't return he went out and found them sitting together on a sofa in the White Swan and 'put two and two together and made five'.
Thinking she had been unfaithful, he threw a drink over them and then slapped Miss Cunningham hard to the face accusing her of cheating on him.
The landlady of the pub threw him out and shortly after his girlfriend received a number of calls and texts threatening to throw her stuff out of the flat.
She got a cab back to the property with Mr Annal and when they arrived Sprules had hurled some of her things, including a TV a CD player, into the street.
"Mark Sprules was clearly enraged and he came out of the address waving a knife: a bread knife," Miss Squire said.
She said he went straight for Mr Annal and in the struggle he suffered a cut to the webbing between his left index finger and thumb and a nick to his ear.
Miss Cunningham intervened and managed to stop the violence and the defendant was arrested at the scene.
When he was questioned he was candid saying he had flown into a rage after seeing them sitting together and wrongly believing the worst.
Sprules, of Back Street, Trowbridge, pleaded guilty to causing actual bodily harm, common assault, criminal damage and possessing a bladed article in a public place.
The court heard he had a number of previous convictions including offences of violence and being drunk and disorderly.
Passing sentence, Judge Tim Mousley QC said: "You are remorseful and you appear to be taking steps to put an end to a history of assaults.
"I am satisfied you did not take the knife and use it deliberately to cause injury to him. At the time you were under a great deal of emotional upheaval and genuinely thought your partner was being unfaithful.
"I have read the pre-sentence report and I am told from the author of that report that the considered view is that the best way of stopping you behaving like this is a programme with the probation service, and you won't benefit from that if I send you to prison for a short period.
"I have also read Marie Cunningham's letter and she takes the view you have started to turn your life around. Many would say you should have started to do that a long time ago."
He imposed an eight-month jail term suspended for 18 months with supervision and an alcohol treatment requirement.

Bob Woodward Report
The Watergate reporter visits IC just weeks before the identity of the infamous Deep Throat is revealed. by Erika Spaet '09
In the 1970s United States politics—indeed, the whole society—was rocked by the Nixon administration's Watergate scandal. Now the country is still under the shadows of the September 11, 2001, attacks, and on top of that is engaged in a huge military operation about which neither politicians nor the public can find common ground. Journalists have played important—and sometimes controversial—roles in these significant events, and Bob Woodward is one of the most well known.
Woodward came to campus in April as a guest in the Park Scholar Tenth Anniversary Speaker Series, which was coincidentally just six weeks before one of the longest kept and most debated secrets in journalistic history was broken.
Extensive and intimate interviews with the most powerful people in the world have characterized Woodward's 37-year reporting career, and his most recent book, State of Denial, is no exception. In his public talk on the book's topic, Woodward spoke about the hours he spent with current U.S. president George W. Bush and his former secretary of defense Donald Rumsfeld asking about the decisions they had made on the invasion of Iraq, as well as his covert interviews with anonymous sources on dark nights in the 1970s. (Soon after Woodward's IC visit, on May 31, former top FBI official Mark Felt was revealed to have been Deep Throat, the code name given by Woodward and his Washington Post investigative partner Carl Bernstein to the secret source who helped the reporters unravel the mysteries of Watergate.)
Woodward is now assistant managing editor of the Washington Post. His access to the decision-makers in Washington has afforded him a view that most reporters don't get, but he says objective reporting on the part of all journalists is essential to the public, especially during war. "When it comes to political judgments and matters of Republicans and Democrats and who's right, I keep my hands totally off that," he says. "It's important to prove things so they're not a matter of opinion, they're a matter of evidence."
But as the nature and immediacy of journalism changes, investigative reportage is becoming rarer and rarer. During Watergate, Woodward and Bernstein would spend weeks on a single story and be drilled on current events by their editors. Now, he says, "The media [are] defined by two impulses: speed and impatience. Everything is 'Give it to me now.' I think journalism is best when you take the time to talk to people and find the story. Information has power in this country, and you need all of that information to make a whole assessment."
And Woodward should know; his reporting has helped assess the crimes of a 1970s presidency and the international strategies of a modern-day White House that, he says, is "under siege."
"There is a pattern here of denying reality," he reflects, "and sometimes it's almost as if Bush thinks reality is wrong, that the facts are there but that if he denies them hard enough, things will be the way he wishes they were."
Yet Woodward places part of the blame on journalists for their handling of the prelude to the Iraq invasion. "I think my colleagues and I were not aggressive enough in the lead-up to the war," he says. "I regret that we weren't more aggressive, and it was hard, but we should've found a way because the war decision is so important."
He broke one of the biggest scandals of his lifetime, has interviewed the biggest names in Washington, and is in his fourth decade of working in the news business. When asked why he still keeps doing such a difficult and often exhausting job, Woodward replies, "I just love the work."

A CHARITY shop in Winton is being transformed with a graffiti wall and music from local bands to appeal to young people.
The Lewis-Manning Hospice store, on Wimborne Road, was closed until Wednesday, May 28, while the good cause's new charity shop consultant, Louise Croft, used her creative and entrepreneurial flair to revamp the interiors.
Former Bath University business graduate Louise says she wanted to update the charity's 10 shops, so each will have their own individual style, starting with the Winton branch, which was also due to get new flooring, lights and fittings.
She said: "Although ultimately we want the stores to bring in more money, my remit from Lewis-Manning is also about making a connection with the community and making each shop unique and specific to the area. The aim is to move away from a chain shop model and make them individual and full of personality, while still highlighting the Lewis-Manning brand."
Louise added: "Winton has a very large student population, so we aim to target that market and reflect it in the shop interior. Think 60 Million Postcards with a graffiti wall."
Louise has also been approached by Rhianna Matthews, a Bournemouth and Poole College student, who will be helping with window displays over the summer before she goes on to study visual merchandising at university.
Lewis-Manning Hospice offers free palliative care to over 650 local people living with cancer and other life-limiting illnesses. It receives approximately 20 per-cent of its funding from a contact with NHS Dorset CCG, with the remaining £65,000 a month being raised by the hospice through fundraising initiatives and donations, as well as its shops.
A grand opening event for the shop too place, featuring live music from bands including Chris Rogers, Cappella and Not Made in China, as well as food, drink and stylists.
For more information on the charity and its shops go to www.lewis-manning.co.uk.

A Rethink poetry book
de The Rethinkers
Acerca del libro
The following haiku were written by the young members of Rethink, students of New Orleans public schools who surveyed the facilities at several schools and took pictures of the horrible conditions of the bathrooms. The students then worked all summer to design a green bathroom that would provide a safe, comfortable place for the students of New Orleans schools. These haiku capture the experience of neglect, disrespect, and low quality of life that young people suffer in the current state of New Orleans schools. The students then wrote about the dream of the green bathrooms that they designed, and about the hope and inspiration the design has brought them.
The poems were developed with the help of Quality Public School Education as a Civil Right (www.qecr.org), a national network of advocates, parents, youth, teachers, and community members committed to securing a constitutionally protect right to high quality public school education.

Richard Lambert's piece on Vallares and the reputation arbitrage that the £1.3bn investment vehicle is pulling off by listing on the FTSE 100 is well worth reading. It raises serious questions about how London financiers are exploiting index funds.
As Sir Richard, a former editor of the FT, points out, Tony Hayward and Nat Rothschild are pulling a neat trick by promising investors they can release the "trapped value" of commodity groups in far-flung countries with murky corporate governance:
You unlock this value by putting a respectable board of directors on top of the notepaper, by appointing managers with a strong following in financial markets, by pledging to follow all relevant corporate governance codes and by listing the shares on the London Stock Exchange, preferably on a scale that gets them into the FTSE 100 index. Suddenly investors who might previously have run a mile are queuing up to buy.

Florida baseball blanks Maryland to open season
Published: Friday, February 14, 2014 at 9:25 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, February 14, 2014 at 9:25 p.m.
A year ago, Bobby Poyner wasn't a part of opening night. On Friday night, he was the story of the first college baseball game of the season.
Photo Galleries
The junior, who was suspended at the start of last season, threw 5⅓ scoreless innings as Florida opened the season with a 4-0 win over Maryland.
"It's crazy how things work out," Poyner said.
Poyner missed the start of the 2013 season, but Florida coach Kevin O'Sullivan couldn't have been happier with the way the left-hander started this one.
"It's a great story," O'Sullivan said. "He just made some big pitches."
Poyner struck out a career-high five batters and escaped a mess in the second inning. With runners on second and third and nobody out, he struck out two batters, issued an intentional walk and then struck out a third to end the inning.
It was a bit of a surprise when O'Sullivan tabbed Poyner, 3-3 last year, to be the opening night starter.
"I was not expecting the ball on Friday night," Poyner said.
Florida's first runs of the season were scored in the third inning where the hardest-hit ball was an out. Freshman Peter Alonso delivered a single to start the inning and Josh Tobias followed with a long drive to left that was caught at the fence. After a walk to freshman Buddy Reed and a single to left by shortstop Richie Martin, freshman Ryan Larson hit a nubber down the third-base line.
Maryland third baseman Jose Cuas tried to flip the ball to home with his glove, but catcher Kevin Martir couldn't handle it as Alonso slid at the plate. When Alonso and Cuas became tangled behind the plate, the speedy Reed raced home to make it 2-0.
"I have a motto — never stop running," Reed said. "My mom always told me that and the coaches here told me that, too."
Reed, starting for the suspended Harrison Bader, also made a highlight-reel catch in center to end the fifth, sliding to grab a ball hit well over his head.
"I've been bragging on him for awhile," O'Sullivan said. "You kind of saw a glimpse of how he plays the game."
Taylor Gushue's bloop single to center scored Martin to make it 3-0.
The Gators loaded the bases with three singles in the eighth inning and Gushue flew to deep left for his second RBI of the night.
"I give a lot of credit to their starter (Jake Stinnett)," O'Sullivan said. "The first couple of innings he's throwing 90-94 (mph) and I was looking around and thinking, 'Who does the scheduling?'
"But our at-bats need to get better."
The Gators received efficient relief performances from Ryan Harris, who needed only 13 pitches to retire five batters, and Danny Young, who needed only 17 to retire the last six batters of the game for his first career save.
The shutout was the first on opening day for UF since 2006 against Cincinnati. The teams play again Saturday at 4 p.m.
