Orthopaedics is the medical specialty that focuses on injuries and diseases of your body's musculoskeletal system, which is made up of bones, muscles, joints and ligaments. Aging, trauma, poor posture or high-impact sports can all cause injuries to these areas of the body.
FV Hospital provides a multi-disciplinary team of consultant orthopaedic surgeons, nurses, physiologists and occupational therapists to help patients return to an active and pain-free lifestyle. With our focus on expertise, speed, technology and patient-centric care, we are with our patients every step of the way on their road to recovery.
The Orthopaedics and Hand Surgery outpatient clinics are located in the Surgical Centre on the 3rd floor of the V Building. Patients can be admitted either in the Day Ward for day-care surgical procedures or in the Surgical Ward for procedures requiring hospitalisation.
General Orthopaedics
- Sport injuries and trauma
- Knee pathology such as Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) rupture, Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) rupture, meniscus tears, cartilage lesions, unstable kneecap, patellar fracture and other common knee injuries. Treatment techniques include knee arthroscopy, and partial (unicondylar) and total knee joint replacements
Knee arthroscopy is a surgical procedure that allows an orthopaedic surgeon to diagnose and treat knee disorders by providing a clear view of the inside of the knee. After making small incisions, using a pencil-sized instrument called an arthroscope, the surgeon can see an image of your knee that is transmitted through a small camera, via optic fibres, to a television monitor. The TV image allows the surgeon to thoroughly examine the interior of your knee and determine the source of your problem. During the procedure, the surgeon can also insert surgical instruments through other small incisions in your knee to remove or repair damaged tissues.
Your orthopaedic surgeon might use this procedure to diagnose and treat:
- Torn ligaments including the anterior (ACL reconstruction) and posterior cruciate ligaments (PCL reconstruction)
- Abnormal alignment or instability of the kneecap
- A torn meniscus
- Loose fragments of bone or cartilage
- Damaged joint surfaces or softening of the articular cartilage known as chondromalacia
- Inflammation of the synovial membrane, such as rheumatoid or gouty arthritis
- Hip surgery: treatment of dislocation, fractures, osteonecrosis
- Hip replacement
- Legs, ankles and feet: arthritis, broken leg, sprained ankle, tendonitis, heel pain, hallux valgus ("bunions"), intoeing, ingrown toenails
- Musculoskeletal tumours
- Paediatric orthopaedics
- Spine surgery: chronic low back pain, herniated disc (Slipped Disc), spinal stenosis, degenerative spondylolisthesis
Hand Surgery
Treating the hand and upper limb means that hand surgeons tend to the fingertips, the shoulder, and everything in between.
The breadth of hand surgeon care includes:
- Hand injuries and upper limb trauma (fractures and sprains, tendon injury, nerve injury)
- Chronic disorders such as Dupuytren's contracture, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, tendinitis, De Quervain's tenosynovitis (trigger finger)
- Arthritis including inflammatory, rheumatoid arthritis, age-related, and trauma-related
- Shoulder conditions such as impingement, rotator cuff tear, calcium deposits, acromio-clavicular separation, shoulder dislocation, Bankart lesion and frozen shoulder, using physiotherapy, injections, shoulder arthroscopic surgery
- Shoulder joint replacement
- Congenital anomalies such as extra fingers or absence of fingers, radial clubhand, syndactyly
- Vascular anomalies of the hand and wrist.
Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Department
Our therapists assist patients in restoring their mobility, functionality and independence on a one-to-one basis.
The Orthopaedics and Hand Surgery outpatient clinics are located in the Surgical Centre on the 3rd floor of the V Building.
Patients can be admitted either in the Day Ward for day-care surgical procedures or in the Surgical Ward for procedures requiring hospitalisation.
The Imaging Department is equipped with a CT scanner, a 1.5 Tesla MRI and a Bone Densitometer.
In the Operating Theatre, the key equipment in orthopedic surgery is as follows:
C-Arm from GE Healthcare
A C-Arm is a precise and accurate mobile X-ray imaging system used in surgical procedures. FV Hospital benefits from the OEC 9900, one of the best C-Arm systems available internationally. It offers high-quality multiple images at a minimum dose and, thanks to its active cooling and heat monitoring indicators, is ideally suited for extensive surgical procedures.
Arthroscopy System from Stryker
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure which provides examination and treatments on joints such as the knee, hip, shoulder, elbow or ankle. FV Hospital's arthroscopes are each supported by high definition (HD), 3 chip CCD camera systems and an advanced LED light source, providing detailed images to assist surgeons in all procedures. The system is further aided by an arthroscopy pump which provides irrigation for joints, and is able to maintain joint pressure.
Shaver System from Stryker
Stryker's technological supported shaving system is used in arthroscopy procedures to abrade or remove bone, and accomplish the debridement of soft tissues. Fitted with a host of safety features such as a blade recognition system, easy irrigation compatibility, automatic optimal cutting speed and direction selection, it provides power and precision to offer maximum performance during a surgical procedure.
In addition, the surgeons use a number of high precision drills, bars and saws with varying speed and oscillating frequency, each suitable for special types of bones depending on their structure, size and characteristics.

Mexicali Meatloaf
Recipe by Tearanii
This is a wonderful tasting meatloaf that has a Mexican twist.
Top Review by vrvrvr
This was a delicious meatloaf. For me, the 90% lean ground beef was perhaps a little too "prime" and the texture was somewhat dry. That made the salsa/sour cream sauce very key. For the meatloaf, I used crushed tortilla chips in place of the oats. I also used about 1/4 c. fresh parsley, and added salt, pepper and an egg. For the sour cream sauce, I found that 2 T. made it plenty rich and creamy. (I think 6 T. would be way too much). My salsa was very chunky so I whirled it in the mini-food-processor. We all enjoyed a southwest twist to meatloaf. I served it with cornbread, salad and rice. I just free-formed it in a baking dish (didn't use a loaf pan). It browned nicely and tasted wonderful with the sauce!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 cup chunky salsa, divided, see directions
- 6 tablespoons fat free sour cream
- 16 ounces 90% lean ground beef

TWO youths have been charged with false imprisonment of a teenage girl in Dublin.
The pair, both aged 17, were arrested following the alleged incident in north Co Dublin last Thursday.
The two teens, who cannot be named, faced their second hearing yesterday when they appeared before Judge John O'Connor at Dublin Children's Court.
However, the judge was forced to call a recess when one of their mothers began screaming and threw herself on to the floor.
The court heard the girl now wants to withdraw her complaint.
However, the DPP wants the case to proceed.
Neither youth has indicated how he will plead and the venue for their trial has not yet been decided.

WRAPUP 1-Open-Federer avoids following Nadal out of Paris
* Federer roars back from two sets down
* Serena sets up Kuznetsova showdown
* Fifth seed Jankovic beaten by Romanian teenager
By Pritha Sarkar
PARIS, June 1 - Roger Federer roared and 15,000 fans hollered as the Swiss clung on by his fingertips to his French Open dreams on Monday and avoided joining Rafael Nadal on the Roland Garros scrapheap.
With the claycourt major still reeling from the shock exit of four-times champion Rafael Nadal just 24 hours earlier, Federer was on the brink of the same fate before finding the strength to bury German Tommy Haas 6-7 5-7 6-4 6-0 6-2.
Fifth seed Jelena Jankovic completed a miserable three days for the Serbs when she followed compatriots Novak Djokovic and 2008 champion Ana Ivanovic out with a 3-6 6-0 9-7 defeat by little known Romanian teenager Sorana Cirstea.
But an out-of-form Jankovic's loss barely caused a stir after Federer's great escape on Centre Court.
When Haas swiped a service return wide after three hours and seven minutes of nerve-shredding action, Federer leapt high in the air and let out an almighty roar to mark the moment he had booked a quarter-final date against either American sixth seed Andy Roddick or Frenchman Gael Monfils.
Only 70 minutes earlier, it had looked like the Swiss would suffer his earliest grand slam loss since 2004 when he came within five points of defeat.
At two sets and 3-4 down facing a break point, Federer conjured up a screaming forehand winner to bring the scores back to deuce. Federer earned his get-out-of-jail-free card two points later when Haas dragged a forehand long.
"When I hit that forehand to save a break point at 3-4 in the third, I had the feeling it could be a turning point in the match," said Federer, who has reached the semi-finals or better in the last 19 grand slam events.
"I thought almost that it was my first good shot of the match. I knew the significance of that shot.
"That saved me on that day and I was able to turn around the whole match. It's a great feeling, because I was in quite some danger right there."
From then on, Federer won eight successive games and his charge towards a record-equalling 14th grand slam title was safe -- at least for another two days.
"When you're that close to winning, it hurts," said Haas.
"There's no secret to why he's been there the last five years and so you just got to tip your hat and say, 'That's why he's Roger Federer'."
Federer will be hoping to avoid any further anxious moments as he is favourite to win an elusive Paris title after the departures of Nadal and in-form Serbian fourth seed Djokovic.
But after having to come back from two sets down for only the fifth time in his career, Federer did not want to buy into the hype that it was his year to win the title.
"People make it sound so simple ... (but) you come out and you always have guys going after you, like Haas today," said Federer.
Nadal's compatriot Tommy Robredo made sure there was at least some Spanish interest left in the draw when he beat Djokovic's conqueror Philipp Kohlschreiber 6-4 5-7 7-6 6-2.
But while the rest of Roland Garros could not stop talking about Nadal's demise, there was one exception.
"I don't want to talk about Rafa. I'm here to talk about myself. I'm ready, I'm playing good and I'm in the quarter-finals. And I'm fit," said Robredo, who will meet Juan Martin del Potro.
The Argentine fifth seed made it through to the quarter-finals for the first time with a 6-1 6-7 6-1 6-4 win over French ninth seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.
For once, Serena Williams did not provide any of the drama.
The second seed, who created a commotion in the previous round after labelling her opponent a "cheat" following a disputed point, was the model of decorum in a 6-1 6-2 thrashing of Canadian 24th seed Aleksandra Wozniak.
The 2002 champion, at 27 the oldest woman left in the draw, will face seventh seed Svetlana Kuznetsova for a place in the last four after the Russian survived her stiffest test yet in a 6-4 1-6 6-1 win over Pole Agnieszka Radwanska.

In a Monday double-header with host Staten Island, the Aberdeen IronBirds bounced back from a tough 3-2 loss in the opening contest to beat the Yankees, 4-1, in the evening's concluding matchup.
Both games of the double-header, making up Thursday's game that was rained out, were shortened to seven innings.
Monday's game-two victory was the IronBirds' third win since Friday, making that five-game stretch the most successful Aberdeen has seen so far this season. Prior to beating Brooklyn, 3-2, on Friday, Aberdeen had earned just two victories in 19 games.
Through Monday, Aberdeen held a 5-19 record and was still well at the bottom of the New York-Penn League's McNamara Division. Staten Island sat seven games ahead in third, second-place Brooklyn held an eight game advantage and first-place Hudson Valley led Aberdeen by 13 games.
In the second game of Monday's twin bill, Aberdeen got things moving during the top of the third, with Jay Gonzalez cranking a one-out double. Austin Anderson followed with another double to score Gonzalez and put his team up, 1-0. Anderson eventually came around to score after Staten Island's starter walked two and hit a batter.
Riley Palmer led off Aberdeen's half of the fifth with a single and Hector Veloz followed with a two-run shot over the left field wall, his third round-tripper of the season.
Staten Island scored once in the top of the sixth on reliever Ivan Hernandez with a pair of doubles, but Hernandez held the host team scoreless for the balance of the contest.
Aberdeen reliever Dariel Delgado (1-1) earned the win, striking out one, walking one and holding Staten Island to one hit over one shutout inning. Hernandez struck out three, did not allow a walk and surrendered three hits over two innings.
Starter Augey Bill tossed four innings, striking out one, walking one and holding the hosts to one hit in a no decision.
The first of Monday's two matchups saw Aberdeen battle back to a 2-2 tie, only to see Staten Island come up with the winning run in the bottom of the seventh.
Trailing, 2-0, after four innings, Aberdeen's Federico Castagnini led off the fifth getting hit by a pitch. Palmer singled to put the tying run on base and Oswill Lartiguez moved both his teammates over with a sacrifice bunt. Castagnini scored on an RBI groundout from Austin Pfeiffer, while Palmer came home for the tying run on a double from Austin Anderson.
IronBird relief man Stefan Crichton retired the first two batters in the bottom of the seventh, but Staten Island produced three straight singles, the last of which drove home the game-winning run.
Crichton (1-4) struck out two, didn't give up a walk and allowed three hits over 1-2/3 innings.
Starter Janser Severino went five innings, striking out three, walking one and allowing one earned run on seven hits in a no decision.
'Birds whitewashed
In a marked turnaround from Saturday's 18-run offensive explosion, the IronBirds managed just a pair of hits on Sunday in a 7-0 shutout loss to host Brooklyn.
Aberdeen fell to 4-18 with the defeat.
Federico Castagnini went 1-for-3 with a double, while Austin Pfeiffer was 1-for-3 with a single. The rest of Aberdeen's lineup went hitless.
Aberdeen starter John Means went two innings in a no decision, striking out one, allowing zero walks and holding Brooklyn to one hit.
Matthew Grimes (0-1) was charged with the loss, as he allowed three earned runs on four hits over two innings of work.
Nigel Nootbaar worked two innings in relief, striking out two and allowing four earned runs on six hits. Derrick Bleeker closed out the game for Aberdeen, recording two strikeouts and allowing two hits over two innings.
Plenty of hits
Where hits, runs and victories have been scarce for the IronBirds so far this season, Saturday night provided an entirely different scenario, as Aberdeen pounded out 18 hits in an 18-2 win over host Brooklyn.
The game started normally enough, with the IronBirds plating one run in the top of the first, then adding three more in the third to put Brooklyn back, 4-0.
The fourth inning saw the IronBirds score seven times, while the Aberdeen bats provided five runs in the fifth. A two-run rally in the seventh closed out scoring for the evening.
Brooklyn had one run in both the fifth and sixth innings.
Leading the IronBirds offensive outpouring was Riley Palmer, who went 5-for-6 with a triple, three RBIs and three runs scored. Jamil Moquete cranked out a three-RBI double for Aberdeen and scored twice, while Justin Viele was 2-for-4 with a double, two RBIs and one run. Alex Murphy was 3-for-4 with a double, two RBIs and three runs, while Jay Gonzalez went 2-for-6 with three runs and one RBI. Hector Veloz was 1-for-3 with two runs and two RBIs. Federico Castagnini had one run and one RBI and Brandon Caluccio posted one RBI as well. Tad Gold scored a pair of runs in the victory and Stephen Wilkerson had one run.
Reliever David Hess (1-0) earned the victory, holding Brooklyn to one hit, striking out four and walking two over two shutout innings.
Patrick Connaughton started for Aberdeen and worked two perfect innings in which he recorded three strikeouts. Nik Nowottnick allowed two earned runs on four hits, struck out two and walked two. Daniel Delgado tossed the remaining three innings for Aberdeen, holding Brooklyn two a pair of hits, striking out one and allowing one walk.
One-run win
Playing a road matchup with Brooklyn on Independence Day, the IronBirds celebrated the holiday by topping the hosts, 3-2, for their third win of the season.
With the score knotted, 1-1, heading into the eighth, Aberdeen started what would be the game-winning rally when Steve Wilkerson led off with a double to center. After moving over to third on Riley Palmer's sacrifice groundout, Wilkerson motored home for the go-ahead run when Jay Gonzalez ripped an RBI single up the middle. Gonzalez stole second and moved over to third when the Brooklyn catcher's throw skipped into center field. Oswill Lartiguez eventually knocked Gonzalez home for Aberdeen's final run on an RBI groundout to the pitcher.
Aberdeen had gone ahead, 1-0, in the second, when Federico Castagnini singled to drive in Jamil Moquete, who had reached on a one-out double.
Brooklyn scored once on reliever Josh Walker in the bottom of the third with a walk and an RBI double.
The hosts threatened in their final at-bat, scoring once on Aberdeen reliever Bennett Parry with a single, a double and an RBI groundout. Parry, however, was able to retire the final batter of the game with the tying run on third to preserve Aberdeen's victory.
Parry (1-0) tossed five innings out of the bullpen, striking out six without allowing a walk and holding the hosts to one earned run on five hits.
Tanner Chleborad started for Aberdeen, striking out one, walking one and allowing two hits over two innings.
Walker went two innings in which he struck out four, walked one and surrendered one earned run on one hit.
Gonzalez, the only IronBird with multiple hits, went 2-for-4.

text: Hello handsome people. I am currently working on a games site more towards strategy gamers with some unique content. My long term goal is to earn between £600 and £1000 a month from this website and maybe another one not too sure yet. I'd like to go out and travel the world this is why I need to monetize a couple of sites. I'd just like some suggestions and criticism on how I'll go about monetizing the site. For my unique content which will be the main page, I'd like to implement PPV or CPI banner ads you know the one that shows along the bottom. I saw a friendly looking one on a site and it was only about 2cm tall so something like that would do. I'll put a commission paying ad on the main page every now and then (maybe end of every month for 2 or 3 days) but it won't be a permanent thing as this will be to prevent ad blindness. For the flash games part of the site I've added a chitika box ad (a small one that shows just one advert) at the bottom middle of each page and commission based ads at the top to the right of the images of the flash games. The images are placed around this ad section. I want to host a forum for the site so that the visitors can discuss tips/strategy's on how to complete the games on my unique content. This'll give them a good reason to sign up for if they are having trouble or would like to cheat their way around the game. I'll monetize the forum but some are saying most forums are very hard to monetize and I can see why when I go on a forum because I just want to get the information I'm looking for. If you could boast about your earnings from your websites I'd really appreciate that. I'd need a little motivation for when times get tough.

What is a 'Term Deposit'
A term deposit is a deposit held at a financial institution that has a fixed term. These are generally short-term with maturities ranging anywhere from a month to a few years. When a term deposit is purchased, the lender (the customer) understands that the money can only be withdrawn after the term has ended or by giving a predetermined number of days notice. These types of financial products are sold by banks, thrift institutions and credit unions.
BREAKING DOWN 'Term Deposit'
Also known as certificates of deposit (CDs), time deposits and "bonds" in England, term deposits are an extremely safe investment and are therefore very appealing to conservative, low-risk investors. Term deposits sold by banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the National Credit Union Administration for credit unions. Term deposits, because they allow banks to hold onto a deposit for a specific amount of time, allow banks to invest in higher gain financial products.
In return, financial institutions are more likely to pay higher interest rates to the lender. Most institutions will offer fixed rates, but it's not unheard of to have a CD with variable rates - one example was in the early 2000's when banks offered CD's that could have their interest rates bumped-up only once, and not lowered. Generally, interest rates should be proportional to the time and amount that the principle is lent to the credit union or bank. A 'jumbo-CD' for instance, (usually over $100,000) will receive much more in interest rates than a $1,000 CD. The smaller the institution, the more likely the interest rate will be higher, and uninsured banks tend to offer the highest rates.
Opening / Closing a Term Deposit / CD
While they're called certificates of deposits, few who open a term deposit actually receive a certificate. Though it used to be the case that a person would receive some form of certificate, usually a term deposit just appears as a book entry in a bank statement. Paper statements can still be requested, where the principal, interest rate, and duration as agreed by the lender and financial institution.
Closing a term deposit before the end of the term, or maturity, comes with the consequence of lost interest on the principal. The penalty for withdrawing prematurely or against the agreement is stated at the time of opening a term deposit, as required by the Truth in Savings Regulation. Sometimes, if the financial environment is right and interest rates have risen a considerable amount, the penalty a financial institution may not be enough of a deterrent for an investor to withdraw their term deposit and refinance it at a higher rate.
When a term deposit is reaching it's maturity date, the financial institution that has been holding the investor's principal will usually send a letter asking for direction on what steps to take. The steps an investor can take are either withdrawing the principal originally invested with the institution, or they can let it roll over. If the holder gives no instruction, the institution can reinvest that money.
Investment strategies
One strategy for investing term deposits is to distribute an investment evenly over a set number of years in long-term CDs. This strategy locks in higher interest rates due to the investment in longer term CDs while also making it so a part of the lump investment matures regularly.
For example, if an investor deposits $3,000 in a 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1-year term deposit, each year the investment will reach maturity. This strategy can be used while investing with the same credit union or bank, or across a few different institutions. The investor can either recoup the principal and the interest and keep it, or they can then re-invest in another 5 year term deposit. Financial institutions aren't responsible for the management of a ladder investment strategy, the investor is.
Drawbacks of CD's
On term deposits, interest rates can track inflation rates, making it so any gain on the principal is in fact not a gain in value but simply a gain in capital. However, the issue is not whether or not term deposit track inflation, but how closely they do. This can be to the benefit or disadvantage to the investor. If the projected inflation rate is high, and inflation goes below what is expected and the interest rate on the principal invested is locked in, then the investor stands to gain value on the term deposit. If the inflation rate ends up going higher than anticipated and the interest rate isn't adjusted, an investor could lose value on their investment.
Outside of inflation, term deposits with wildly high interest rates have been used in the past to draw in participants into ponzi schemes.

Ithorian Green Lantern by DanielMeadWatch
©2011-2017 DanielMead
I'm reading the Green Lantern books...starting all the way back to the rebirth of Hal Jordon. I always thought it was awesome when you could see little aliens and blobs within the corps, so I thought I would make a little mash up between Star Wars and the DC world.
nicely done can you do one of a wookiee
Oh my, I think I have to ween myself off of Lanterns for a while, but sometime, I might think about making a bunch of cantina lantern crossovers.
Thanks, and I thought I was being original. Nice work!
You totally were, it seems a natural idea to me. So surprised Dark Horse & DC haven't crossed over these universii!
AWESOME!!!!! Bring down the hammer! Love it.
Nice stuff!!! Dude, the lines and the colors couldn't be better! Hammerhead is the PERFECT choice as a lantern too!
That's a strange coincidence. I've been collecting all the GL trades for a while, then I stopped. This past Christmas, I got all the books from Rebirth on to the Blackest Night set. I had to look up the reading order to follow it correctly. I'm not done yet, but so far my favorite books are actually the Green Lantern Corps series.
I tried to just jump into the Blackest Night and didn't understand what was going on because of all the new rings and their back stories. Going back to the semi-start made it all clear for me for the most part. I still don't know how Hal Jordan came back from death?
Here's a brief summary:
- In the early 90s, he became Parallax, went evil, and died.
- In the late 90s, his soul became the new Spectre.
- REBIRTH starts off with him still being Spectre.
- In the early 90s, he became Parallax, went evil, and died.
- In the late 90s, his soul became the new Spectre.
- REBIRTH starts off with him still being Spectre.
Interesting choice, since Ithorians are usually pacifists. I guess if you pissed one off enough he would take up the ring in the cause of Justice. Either way THIS PICTURE IS FREAKIN' AWESOME!!! Very nice mash up.

If you listen very carefully, you just might be able to hear the sound of hundreds of BCCI and state cricket association officials whimpering all over the country.
That's because the Justice Lodha Committee report takes a sledgehammer to the cricket board's formerly impregnable fortress and would replace it with one of the most progressive and equitable sports governing bodies in the world.
The Committee has rightly paid no heed to history, precedent or person in its recommendations, saying so in remarkably direct terms.
"At a time when the nation's highest court has been compelled to find that the game has fallen into disrepute, only extraordinary steps will bring it back from this chasm. We are conscious that some of our proposals may evoke varied responses, but the collective conscience of this Committee is clear that tough measures are called for to restore Indian cricket to its pinnacle of glory."
"Individual interest will have to be sacrificed for the sake of the institution, and no exigency of convenience or convention shall stand in the way of a whole scale structural overhaul."
The result is a set of proposals that hit all the right notes and leave no aspect of Indian cricket untouched. The Committee hasn't simply looked at the way the board functions, it has looked at the way the sport is governed and played in the country and decided, audaciously but rightly, that it all had to be shook up.
If I said I saw this day coming, I'd be lying.
The Committee has, of course, proposed a completely new governing structure for BCCI in order to create space for professional management and to prevent any one individual from dominating the board as former president N Srinivasan did.
Separating the cricket functions from administrative functions and the IPL from everything else are further common sense proposals that would make BCCI officials look silly if they were to oppose them.
Among the more cheer-worthy proposals is the creation of a player's association, something Indian cricket has desperately needed to bring balance to the relationship between administrators and players. The BCCI has overtly and covertly prevented such an association from rising in the past, thereby making it difficult for the players to speak with one voice.
Not only would an association allow the players to bargain collectively in order to secure the best commercial terms for the players, it would also get to nominate members to the Apex Council, including one female member, giving the players representation in BCCI decisions. This had been a huge glaring hole in the way the board has operated so far.
The BCCI is also a sexist organistion in many respects – it is run entirely by men – and having a woman on the Apex Council would be a historic first step to changing that (though much, much more would need to be done to completely transform it, of course).
There are two other heavy-hitting recommendations that warrant mentioning. The first is that, since the matter is currently sub judice before the Madras High Court, the Committee has recommended "that the legislature must seriously consider bringing BCCI within the purview of the RTI Act". While this would have obvious benefits, unfortunately, shielding themselves from the glare of the RTI Act has been a priority for BCCI officials, a number of whom are politicians with considerable influence in the corridors of power. Getting them to vote against their own self-interest is extremely unlikely.
The other is the clause that would prevent a minister or government servant from becoming a BCCI office bearer. Too often political power has often been a crucial determinant in cricket body elections and patronage a key bargaining chip. Cricket has also often been used as a platform for politicians to gain a national profile or burnish one.
For example, in the Great Tamasha, Sharad Pawar tells author James Astill that "I take half an hour a day on telephone or internet for ICC work. That's easy enough. And when I was BCCI president, one full day in a month, mostly on telephone, giving instructions."
Now imagine Sepp Blatter (ignoring for the moment his ban) saying he needed just 30 minutes a day to run FIFA or Thomas Bach saying that about the IOC and you get the idea.
Removing ministers and government servants from the game would allow others with possibly more genuine interest, the will to improve the game and the capability to do so, to be part of the system.
Now the Lodha Committee recommendations are not binding on the BCCI. That decision falls to the Supreme Court. My hope is they will say yes. To everything.
And then the real celebrating can begin.

Community service workers rally for payrise
Social and community service workers in the Hunter will rally today calling for at least a 25 per cent wage rise.
It is expected hundreds of people will march through the Newcastle CBD to the office of Newcastle MP, Tim Owen asking for what they say is a long overdue pay increase.
Australian Services Union Newcastle organiser, Peter Lacey says the mostly female workforce feels undervalued.
"And it's been recognised by Fair Work Australia that the rate of pay is extremely low," he said.
"Fair Work Australia has announced that they will announce a higher pay rate later in the year.
"They have asked for more information from all parties in the case, but at this point in time we've had no commitment from the State or Federal Governments to fund whatever the outcome may be."

The scattering by a horizontal subsurface penny-shaped crack subjected to axially symmetric loading is investigated. The formulation begins with deriving the response of a time harmonic point force in rectangular coordinates. Then, the integral representation and integral equations are converted into polar coordinates by applying the condition of axial symmetry. The results contain crack opening displacement (COD), stress intensity factors, scattered pattern and the frequency spectrum of the Rayleigh wave and the back-scattered longitudinal wave. Resonance phenomenon is compared with the plane strain case solved in an earlier paper.

AT the start of every development there has to be a first buyer, someone who makes that leap of faith and opens their chequebook before the ink on the marketing brochures is dry. With little more than drawings, a three-dimensional model (about the same size as a Lego castle) and a building site to look at, the bravest buyers step forward and invest before a single brick has been laid.
|Living on site: Celia and Brian Westen paid £485,000 for their apartment in Ashwood Place, a restored Lutyens mansion in Surrey, and moved in while the workmen were still busy
This is the way it works in a buoyant market. Developers offer glasses of champagne rather than front doors to walk through, plans rather than walls and floors, and sometimes a ladder to see what the view might offer. Like salmon throwing themselves upriver towards their spawning grounds, driven by an almost suicidal biological urge, buyers have been hurling themselves into new developments propelled by no more than hope.
Nor have they been disappointed. Wander around any scaffold-wrapped building in London's Docklands with a fast-talking agent and he won't be able to resist telling you that flats are being re-sold before the roofs are on. Even the current dip in prices, reported by the Halifax at the beginning of the month, brings nothing worse than a slowing in the rate of house-price inflation to 19.5 per cent from last year's 29.5 per cent. This is hardly a cold shower.
The rest of us are left wishing we'd had the prescience to buy at the beginning. Think of the profit we might have made. But do you need to be a seasoned risk-taker to do it? And what games are these early pioneers really playing? Many are investors able to make decisions uncluttered by sentimentality and family commitments, but they aren't necessarily of a corporate frame of mind or corpulent budget.
Susanne Kimber, for example, saw herself as something of a bewildered 53-year-old in her hunt for an investment property in London Docklands that would provide her with an income in place of a pension. It was February this year, and the estate agent FPDSavills had little more than plans to show for a new development at Limehouse Basin.
"But I saw the queue of black-Calvin Kleiners, City types, with knapsacks on their backs, stretched out around the showroom," she says. "I stood and listened to them talking and I thought this must be the right move."
She is more at home in Hampshire, where she lives with her husband, John, in a 400-year-old country cottage and works as an advertising manager in a Woking publishing company - but she wanted an investment, a smart buy. She was impressed by the style of the agent. "He was called Luke and he was very Sloaney," she says. "I reckoned if I had someone in Gucci loafers with a mobile clamped to his ear, flogging properties as he walked, then I was doing okay."
Luke had picked out for her a one-bedroom first-floor flat with the best views of Limehouse Basin. "All the other buyers were company types and there I was, wanting a property that would serve instead of my pension. I was small fry. They probably thought I had just left the wellies and sheep behind."
How unnerved was she that there wasn't a building to see? "Luke made me climb a ladder to see what the view might be like, and then he showed me a concrete slab which represented the flat." She signed up and needed a large gin and tonic when she got home that night.
The other joys of buying off-plan then dawned. She only had to pay £1,000 to confirm her purchase, didn't have to pay the 10 per cent deposit for another three months, or hand over the full sum for six months. "The real pleasure was that by the time I paid the deposit the value of the flat had gone up." She bought at £160,000 and now, one month after taking possession, it could be worth £200,000. She intends to let it at £275 per week, which will provide her with an income for the rest of her life.
It isn't always as easy as that, however. Early birds at new developments tend to find themselves jostling with sharp suits who know exactly what they are doing. Dealers (even agents) are often having a flutter, buying at the start and then selling on between exchange and completion. This is known as "contract flipping".
Richard Aldous, head of residential development at FPDSavills in Norwich, says this is not unusual. "It is a gamble. It is like playing the stock market and is prevalent in parts of London," he says. Private buyers may also stumble across mystery investors who buy up the first 20 per cent of a development in order to help the developer reach a stage where the bank will release the next phase of money needed to finish the scheme. "This buyer will then hold back all 20 per cent. Once all the properties are sold, he will put his block back on at a higher price."
It is even possible to create a whole lifestyle out of being the first to move in. When Aldous marketed a group of five bungalows off-plan recently, he sold the first one to a spirited couple who were happy to spend a year surrounded by builders and concrete mixers. "Once all five were finished and looking beautiful, they sold theirs at a £20,000 profit and went off on a cruise. It transpired they had done this three times before," he says.
"They have made a living out of buying early, selling up for more than they bought, and the profit pays for their annual cruise. They are in another new development now, doing the same thing again."
There is no doubt that, in a rising market, the first properties to come off the shelf are always the cheapest. "Developers offer lower prices to get cars in the driveways. It lends credibility," says Aldous. Just as no one wants to take a table in an empty restaurant, so buyers don't want to clinch deals unless other people have already moved in.
Developers are the new gods in the property-lifestyle age, and having faith in your chosen one is essential if you buy in this way. Ian Lillicrap has bought a £210,000 one-bedroom flat in a development-to-be called The Madison being created in Borough by Metropolis. "I looked at a fax of a plan and a fax of the specifications," he says. "Then I drove past the site, took a view of the location and read some reviews of what Metropolitan had done before, and decided the company would still be around once the property was finished."
He is happy enough that the development won't be anywhere near ready until next October because he doesn't have to hand over the agreed price until then. "I missed out on a brilliant buy in Notting Hill before prices had gone up. What a stupid decision!" He doesn't want to miss out a second time.
The other advantage of stepping into a development where no man has stepped before is that you can choose your kitchen and bathroom, cupboards and colours, as building progresses. Celia and Brian Westen moved into a £485,000 apartment in a beautifully restored Arts and Crafts mansion called Ashwood Place in Surrey. "Only the workmen were here for months and months and I could ask for lots of special things," says Celia.
"I asked for a room which would have been a study to be made into a dining-room; I asked for a cupboard to keep my china in; I had a utility room with a special fitting for my ironing board and a shelf for my soap powders and a loo off it." Now that the house is gleaming and the gardens tended, she believes she could re-sell at £550,000.
Were the market to turn, then people buying ahead of themselves in this way might get their fingers burnt, but for the moment their smiles just keep on coming. Land buyers have the same calculation to make about how well the market will perform and hence cushion their investments. According to Richard Donnell, director of residential research at FPDSavills, the market would need to see lower increases in prices for two years before they began to feel any real pain.
- Two- and three-bedroom flats are available at Limehouse Basin priced at £299,000 to £430,000, through FPDSavills (020 7423 9799).
- Flats are available in The Madison at £200,000 for one bedroom and £300,000 for two bedrooms, from Metropolis (020 7323 6991).
- Ashwood Place near Woking in Surrey has a four-bedroom house at £475,000 and a three-bedroom apartment at £375,000, through FPDSavills (01483 796810).

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Ivana Trump, ex-wife of property mogul Donald Trump, said on Monday she split from her fourth husband three months ago but kept it quiet to avoid ruining his chances on the Italian version of "Survivor."
After dating for about six years, Trump, 59, married Rossano Rubicondi, 36, in a lavish ceremony in April at Donald Trump's Palm Beach, Florida, estate.
Donald Trump, star of "The Apprentice" TV show, has three children with Ivana Trump.
"I filed a legal separation agreement three months ago," she said in a statement. "I kept quiet about the agreement as I didn't want to spoil his chances of winning the TV show."
Rubicondi has been in Honduras competing in the Italian celebrity version of "Survivor," in which contestants compete in various challenges.
But Trump wrote in her New York Post column on November 9 that he had been eliminated amid reports, which she denied, that he had cheated on her with another contestant.
Trump blamed the split on the couple wanting to live in different cities, saying in her statement: "Que sera sera!" (Whatever will be, will be!)

am I the only girl here who feels like I'm being degraded a little when guys say or say they want to do certain things and they are the ones in 'control' in the scenario? I mean, I am an independent woman and sometimes it's just too much for me. ?
Most Helpful Guy
The problem is some women like it and expect it, others completely don't. Guys have been told both and don't know how to act. Be dominant, take the lead, be decisive, but at the same time listen to everything she wants and don't pressure her. It's tough to win.
And just because you *feel* like you're being degraded doesn't mean that they see it like that or had that intention at all. If you want something and you're independent like you say, then make your position on the matter known. Be mindful that he's trying to navigate the situation as well.00|00|0
Most Helpful Girl
well i like taking the submissive role in bed it turns me on when a man knows how to take control (just in bed though. im not a super controlling person but i do make most of the decisions when im in a relationship and tend to be with submissive guys, which makes it even more attractive when such a submissive guy turns dominant in bed) but just like another girl said, its all about respect. of course if you (not directly implying you, just saying in general) have sex with some random guy who barely respects you, it would feel degrading to basically be used as his sex toy since he'd just be ordering you around and making you feel used, but if you're with someone who's serious about you and clearly respects you and stays in your comfort zone (like if you say you dont like your hair pulled, even though he's dominating you at the moment, he will listen and stop doing it because he actually cares about you and doesn't want to hurt you) then it shouldn't be a problem. but not every woman likes the submissive role in bed, maybe you're more dominant and thats cool too, there are plenty of submissive guys.10|10|0

Testing Hours / Schedule
Failures & Retests
The state of Delaware's emissions program has the DMV perform two different types of emissions tests. The first test is when your vehicle is idling and the second is when your vehicle is going at 2,500 rpms. The purpose of the emissions tests are so that Delaware is in compliance with the Federal Clean Air Act.
If your vehicle is from 1967 or earlier and it is a passenger vehicle then you are not required to have any emissions test performed. If your vehicle was manufactured between 1968 and 1980 you are required to have the Idle test performed on your vehicle. If your vehicle is from 1996 up through five years ago you are required to have an on-board diagnostic test run on your vehicle in order to be emissions compliant. And if your vehicle was manufactured less than five years ago you are exempt from having an emissions test performed until your vehicle reaches an age of older than five years.
The test is performed at a test facility and when you enter the test facility the inspection tech will ask you for your registration and will ask how many miles the car has. This information will be entered into a database. The database will check the vehicle and assign the proper test that needs to be performed on the vehicle to comply with the emissions policies.

Silly Question Re: Jam, Preserve Or Spread For Cake Filling
Decorating By vita752001 Updated 29 Mar 2010 , 1:26am by jennywenny
I went to grocery store today to buy some strawberry filling for my cake. My plan was to buy the strawberry jam, as I stood there, confused, I could not decide between strawberry jam, strawberry preserve or strawberry spread, regular or sugar free. I've never use this kind of filling in cake before. Please help, which one is the best for filling? Thank you.
I prefer seedless preserves.
I like the sleeved pastry fillings the best:
Found in my grocery store:
I like seedless also, I don't think it really matters though
Don't get the sugar free, unless you are making a sugar free cake.
If you want large or whole pieces of fruit, get the preserves, otherwise, get the jam. And always get seedless, or, if seedless is not available, heat and strain to remove the seeds.
If it is some sort of filling, I usually get fresh or frozen fruit and then mix with the jam to cut through the sweetness.

The sixth River was born 1406 like the rest of the Rivers she was born a female and is the River who has died the least times. She is also the only one to have a alien body which also counts towards her not being killed so much. She is now a race known as Hatlinks which are from the planet of the same name. Her skills are with computers and her mind is more clever than the rest of the Rivers. She can solve sums in seconds which would take normal people ages to work out. She can also use her mind to moves items which are small.

For all of you Zam people, (whom hopefully I will end up on a server with) I bring to you Laell's weaving.
For a limited time after offical release if you bring me materials, I will craft free of charge, if you ask and mention you are from Zam I will not only make what you want, but chances are I wont charge you if what is needed isnt to expensive and its something I have the ability to make.
Don't fear my bazaar. For all non zam people I will be charging, and dont bother looking at my prices there. You guys will all get a special black market discount. I plan to spend the first week or two crafting. Give you guys a chance to leave the starting areas and thin out a bit so there is something for me to kill.
All I ask in return is for other Zam members to do the same with other crafts. This way if we make that linkshell someone was mentioning, I think it was Pikko, we will be one of the best equipped shells out there.
