Archaeological adventurers
Seekers for ancient truths and artefacts. Treasure hunters, adventurers and scholars or just someone with a mission.
See also: Mummy movies, which often feature archaeologists, although they are often unfortunate victims. I also have an occult detective list, which has some crossover with this list, as well as being another well-known archetype.

Tanning Bed Melanoma Lawsuits
Melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer. It is one of the fastest-growing cancers among white Americans.
Millions of Americans want that bronzed glow all year long. It is estimated that nearly 30 million people visit tanning salons in the U.S., almost 2.5 million of them are teenagers. However, the consequences of using tanning beds are alarming.
Signs and Symptoms of Melanoma
Melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer. It is one of the fastest-growing cancers among white Americans. An increase in this type of cancer has been seen from 1997 and 2006. In this time period the use of tanning beds across the country exploded. Researches say that there is a clear link between the increase of tanning bed use and the rise in melanoma.
The following are signs and symptoms of Melanoma:
- Discolored skin
- Growth of new moles
- Existing moles that change in size, shape or color
- Moles with unusual shapes or are more than one color
- Moles that bleed or leak
It is important to seek medical attention from a doctor to determine whether or not you have melanoma.
Link Between Tanning Beds and Melanoma
The nonprofit Melanoma Research Foundation claims that exposure to the UV radiation from tanning beds can increase a person's risk of melanoma by as much as 75% for people 30 or younger.
If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with melanoma and have a history of tanning bed exposure, you may qualify to file a lawsuit. You may be able to claim compensation for your injuries, medical bills, cost of treatments, and lost wages as a result.
Contact the St. Louis Personal Injury Lawyers at the Zevan and Davidson Law Firm if you or somebody you know has been harmed as a result of exposure to tanning beds. Call us today at (314) 588-7200 or fill out our online contact form to schedule a free and private consultation.

It was with no small amount of trepidation that Richmond mayor Joseph Mayo set out toward Osborne Turnpike in Eastern Henrico County at daybreak on April 3, 1865.
The day before, as Confederate lines around Petersburg continued to dissolve in the face of Union assaults, Gen. Robert E. Lee had sent a message to Confederate President Jefferson Davis. "I think it is absolutely necessary that we should abandon our position tonight," wrote Lee.
Receiving the message while at Sunday worship, Davis slipped quietly out of church, and evacuation plans began. Troops were told to set fire to all cotton, tobacco, and munitions warehouses to keep them from falling into Federal hands. The city council appointed a committee to accompany Mayor Mayo on an impromptu carriage ride so that he could surrender to Union forces east of Richmond.
Unfortunately, Mayo didn't know who was in command of those forces.
As Nelson Lankford tells the story in his book Richmond Burning: The Last Days of the Confederate Capital, Mayo went in search of the Union commander with only a vaguely addressed document bearing the words "The General Commanding the Army of the United States in front of the City of Richmond."
Mayo could only hope that by the time he reached the line of trenches along Osborne Turnpike, about two miles out, he would find the commander and complete his errand.
Meanwhile, outside the city, Federal troops had spotted smoke rising over Richmond and discovered empty tents abandoned by Confederates in withdrawal. Major Atherton Stevens prepared to march into town, leading a detachment of about 40 men from the 4th Massachusetts Cavalry up Osborne Turnpike.
Near the junction of the turnpike with New Market Road, Stevens met the mayor's carriage, and Mayo handed him the surrender note near a tree that still stands today. The act ranks No. 20 on the Henrico Citizen's list of the most significant moments in Henrico history.
"A native of Cambridge, Mass., Stevens had turned 39 the day before," writes Lankford. "Receiving the note surrendering the Confederate capital was a welcome belated birthday present." Stevens accepted the note and told the mayor that he would forward it to his commander, Maj. Gen. Godfrey Weitzel.
"Imagine Mayo's relief," wrote Lankford, "when Stevens assured him that the U.S. Army intended to protect the people and property."
As the mayor and his escorts returned to the city, Stevens and his party also continued toward Richmond by way of Rocketts Landing, where President Abraham Lincoln would land next day. Not far behind rode General Weitzel and his staff.
Only 30 years old himself, Weitzel had attended West Point during the time that Robert E. Lee was superintendent of the Academy and had spent many an hour at Lee's home there. Having given the order that his brigade was to lead the division into the city, Weitzel passed ahead of his infantry columns along Osborne Turnpike – to loud cheers from the troops.
For days afterwards, Lankford wrote, the hot topic in northern newspapers was which Union regiment reached Richmond first. Some accounts said that soldiers from the U.S. Colored Troops headed the columns entering the city.
Thomas Chester, an African American journalist who marched with the USCT, supported the claims of black troops who said they were first over the city line. In Washington, Gen. Benjamin Butler told a crowd it that it was "divine retribution" that black soldiers were first to liberate Richmond.
Lankford, however, suspects that the colored troops, like everyone else, were halted while still on the outskirts of town.
"Despite the sense of poetic justice that story represented to many northerners," he wrote, "it probably was exaggeration."
Among the soldiers who paused at Tree Hill Farm (owned by Unionist Franklin Stearns) were members of the 12th New Hampshire Volunteers. From their perch above the city, they had a view of Richmond burning. Many of them – "aware that they were witnessing history in the making," noted Lankford – took advantage of the wait to pen letters home.
"The sergeant wrote his on a sheet torn from a ledger book left by a Georgia regiment," Lankford wrote. "His companions found a peacock and cut off its tail to send feathers home as mementos in their letters."
At 8:15 a.m. at City Hall, Weitzel formally accepted the terms of surrender from Mayo. He ordered his troops to put out the fires, and, upon learning that Mrs. Lee was in her residence on Franklin St., sent a guard to protect her. His famous telegram, dispatched to General Ulysses S.Grant soon afterwards, began, "We entered Richmond at a quarter past eight this morning. . ."
Within hours, Lankford wrote, the first "tourists" appeared on the scene, steaming up the James from Norfolk and reaching Varina landing at dawn Tuesday. Leading the unauthorized visit was David Farragut, who brought several of his officers and their wives.
A number of souvenirs from the Jefferson Davis residence went home with the Norfolk party. But it was Emma Doane, wife of the ship's purser, who apparently captured the biggest prize: the surrender note.
Long before the Civil War, Tree Hill already had been notable as one of the largest early plantations. During the post-Revolutionary War period it became a center of horse racing in the area and was visited by the Marquis de Lafayette in 1825.
With the surrender of Richmond, however, Tree Hill gained another measure of fame. As Lankford noted, "Although there were two surrenders, and the second one [at City Hall] was the formal ceremony, the more important event was the hurried surrender when Mayo rode out to meet Union soldiers east of the Capitol in Henrico."
On Sept. 24, 2011, Henrico County will celebrate its 400th anniversary year with an encampment and exhibits at Tree Hill Farm, 6404 Osborne Turnpike. The event will include living history demonstrations and exhibits, and a ceremony to honor those who were Medal of Honor recipients for valor on Henrico soil. For details, visit Henrico400th.com.

I did not grow up with a facebook or a phone glued to my face or ears. When communicating with people, I was taught to put down whatever occupied attention, look a person in the eyes, and speak. Back in the era of corded phones, it was difficult to impossible to be half listening to someone while doing something else if only because the phone was mounted on that wall, or the cord was not long enough.
More importantly, I learned that on time means five minutes early and that when I say I will do something that it shall be done in a timely and thorough manner. If you think that I am uppity in this conviction and that not doing these things in any manner is a better way, then YOU ARE WRONG and that is that! Go your way. I'll go mine. Amen, and pass the potato salad.
The familiar Godfather statement that, "it's not personal; it's just business" is false. Everything is personal. I believe that to be late for an appointment or to not communicate when communicated with is a sign of disrespect. As a businessman but even more so as a person, I do not think I am so important as to fill my life with appointments or schedules or making money or this'es or thats in lieu of giving quality attention, respect, and personal service to whomever I am dealing with at the moment. High or low (HA!), monied or not. Whether or not you are going to make me money or promote my business, magnify my wonderful name, or the like.
Now, occasionally I deal with persons in a professional context whom are slovenly in their transactions with others. Late. Overly concerned with their own liability. Good old boy familiar. Unwilling to pay what is owed. Rude. Focused on making money and steamrollering or blowing off whomever gets in the way.
Most of the time, the transaction moves along and things resolve themselves and each party goes their way. For repeat interactions, thankfully word gets around and realtors and customers who are this way can choose another service provider.
What you shall get with DPI. On time. Thorough inspecting and reporting. Overly thorough, intended to protect your sight unto the massive financial commitment that you are preparing to lay out for a property. Punctual reports. Respectful, professional communication. Maybe a little humor in the report about vegetable crops growing out of your gutters or rats and the overzealous wild-eyed pursuit of their destruction. But do not even think for a moment that this humor is at the expense of caring about protecting your financial outlay for the property at hand. . .

The definitive "How to Guide" for making your very own Pirate.
Caution: Some minor spoilers ahead.
Season One of the Starz series 'Black Sails' gave us everything we long-desired in a pirate story: uncut violence, unabashed nudity, chaotic sword-play, wicked sex, epic betrayals, and ruthless villainy. These are not the noble pirates from Errol Flynn-era swashbucklers. These are cruel, loathsome, poorly groomed, and down right nasty men/women.
Setup as a much-mutated prequel of Robert Louis Stevenson's classic 'Treasure Island'. The cast of characters include John Silver (Luke Arnold), Jack Rackham (Toby Schmitz), Anne Bonny (Clara Paget), and Billy Bones (Tom Hooper). Prime "leadership" comes by way of Captain Flint (Toby Stephens), his chief rival Captain Charles Vane (Zach McGowan), head Nassau merchant Eleanor Guthrie (Hannah New), and local brothel madam/spy master Max (Jessica Parker Kennedy). And a host of other nefarious, scandalous, and loathsome characters seemingly plucked out of children's boogeyman stories.
Last year threw us immediately into the thick of 1715 West Indies. Captain Flint is barely able to maintain control of his crew while recklessly/ruthlessly pursuing a Spanish treasure galleon. Eleanor schemes to take over her Governor father's trading empire after he is forced into hiding by the British empire. Max struggles to get out from under her humble prostitute beginnings after ex-lover Eleanor throws her to the wolves. Rackham and Bonny work to stay alive after a few too many "miscalculations" left them indebted and at the mercy of Captain Vane and his crew of cutthroats.
Flint and crew end up shipwrecked after a failed, deadly assault against the Spanish Man 'o War guarding the treasure. Max, Rackham, and Bonny end up running the local bordello in a blind-luck, but brilliant takeover. Vane captures the Nassau fort in retaliation for Eleanor taking away his command as a punishment for evil deeds done. A totally effing, beautiful mess.
During this première season we never really got a sense of where these people came from, they simply are what they are. Season Two boldly rectifies this by offering up "origin stories". We now get to see where they came from, what drives them, and, after a wonderfully exciting, game-changing finale, we can now begin to hint at where things are going–all the way to 'Treasure Island'. More focused, more immediate, more ruthless, and more awesome. Better in every way.
Things start off where we left them: Flint, having just lost his ship and many of his men, is now at the mercy of this very pissed-off crew. The ever wily John Silver gets tossed in with Flint and they must work together to stay useful enough to avoid "walking the plank." Captain Vane keeps control of the fort, tormenting and plotting "against" Eleanor. Max, Rackham, and Bonny work to repair reputations and procure a ship for Rackham to captain. While Bonny and Max form a "special" bond within this man-eat-man world. And a new threat looms over Nassau, the psychotic pirate Captain Ned Low (a deliciously evil Tadhg Murphy).
As the chaos unfolds and this season's plans play out we are treated to flashbacks showing Flint's honest beginnings as a Lieutenant in His Majesty's Navy. We see how he first met the enigmatic Mrs. Barlow (Louise Barnes), a woman currently living near Nassau acting as "adviser with benefits" to Flint. This scandalous partnership reveals Flint's pure, noble (and naïve?) motives for peacefully reconciling the pirate world with the so-called civilized one. Yet, "No good deeds go unpunished!"
What we discover through these flashbacks looms over all of Eleanor and Flint's "master plans" while almost justifying the death and destruction that follow. How do you make a pirate? Take away all of a man's hopes, dreams, and those he cares about most then give him a ship, a sword, and a crew full of killers. Watching Toby Stephens' near-instant transformation into the man now feared as "Captain Flint" is amazing–all hopes dashed, nothing but a desire for vengeance remains.
Lots of other juicy bits like: Ned Low's sinister, high body count grand introduction; Eleanor and Vane's cross purpose manipulations, betrayals, and "negotiations"; Max, Bonny, and Rackham's awkward R-Rated "Three's Company" drama; Silver and Flint's numerous co-conspiracies; the frequent sight of pirates stealthily preparing to unleash holy throat-slitting hell; Billy Bones's resurrection(!); Anne Bonny's homicidal breakdown; Max's methodical rise to power; some seriously brutal slayings; some seriously nasty sex; Flint's non-stop politicking for his ship, his mission, and his life; the creation of the "Jolly Roger" (the de facto skull and crossbones pirate flag) for Rackham's new command–something the real-life Rackham is credited with, BTW; most everyone gets screwed–literally and figuratively; and, once again, a no-holds barred, all-hands on deck finale.
This season does a much better job of balancing out this cast. They become fully fleshed out people, a rabble of men and women shunned by society and driven into this survival of the fittest world. Many may have started out as good, honorable citizens (and perhaps a few still are?) but in early 18th century West Indies "good and honorable" can get you killed. That, and being honest kinda spoils the fun;)
Last season, Toby Stephens excelled at being the dread "Captain Flint". This year, Stephens is spellbinding as the man behind the legend. We get to see him stripped of all OTT excesses. Once we know the why and how of his becoming Flint, we no longer judge his vicious/ruthless actions so harshly. Don't get me wrong, civilization has no place for someone like Captain Flint. But, we can now see his drive, his betrayals, his anger in a new light. Great stuff.
Hannah New is much less pouty as "Eleanor Guthrie". Her status as "pirate queen" is more precarious than ever. She needs these murderers and cutthroats to keep the money flowing. The partnership with Flint to "legitimize" Nassau is her only reprieve. Either she succeeds and makes her (their?) empire a reality, or she may get swallowed up as just another pirate casualty. New is convincingly desperate and determined during Eleanor's complex "diplomatic missions", most especially with her estranged father, her ex-lover and now rival Max, and her powder-keg BF(?) Captain Vane.
John Silver's rise to legend begins here. Last year Luke Arnold relied on charm alone to keep "Silver" from instant death. Now, John Silver can show off his cunning in a more pirate favorable light. Arnold shines in these "grey area" decisions and plots. Starting out as a means to not-get-killed, Silver's wooing of his crew eventually earn them their loyalty and respect. They start to see Silver's goals as their goals. Resulting in a most excellent (and bloody) test of will during the finale.
Charles Vane is as singularly focused on revenge, gold, and Eleanor as ever. Zach McGowan keeps " Capt. Vane" on the precipice of evil vs. not-quite-as-evil. Good advice to never make an enemy out of Charles Vane–you're libel to lose your head. You can always trust Vane's word and that his actions reflect what he wants. Perhaps the only truly "honest" pirate in all of the Bahamas and he's got a pile of dead former adversaries to prove it.
Jessica Parker Kennedy shows "Max" to be one madam you don't underestimate. Loved watching the patient reveal of her plans to "rule the world." Another formidable, stripped-bare performance and a near 180 degree shift coming from Max's tumultuous, often victimized status last season.
Everyone else is in fine form:
- Toby Schmitz squirms forward as the would be pirate king "Rackham". More brains than brawn. Yet, he's able to fight and barely survive as needed. And Schmitz's well-practiced deer-in-the-headlights glances, usually regarding his unpredictable "partner" Anne Bonny, are worth their weight in two ships full of gold.
- Clara Paget struggles early with a lost in the world "Anne Bonny". Bonny needs people to kill. So wailing around in self-pity doesn't do her any justice. Thankfully, by season's end, Bonny gets her head on "straight" and is, once again, doing what she does best;)
- Louise Barnes didn't get much more than presumptuous bitchiness during Season One as the mysterious Flint confidante/occasional lover "Mrs. Barlow". Now we learn of her very hands-on interest in all things Flint. Striving to both help his goal towards a reconciled Nassau and in getting her own pirate-styled vengeance against those that have wronged her. The impassioned performances between Barnes and Stephens gives gale-force potency to the season's violent conclusion.
- Tom Hopper returns as the ever upright "Billy Bones". As earnest a pirate as one can be. Great material between Hopper/Silver and Hopper/Vane as Billy's allegiance to his fellow crewmen never waivers, all other motives be damned.
- And a special nod to guest Nick Boraine as potential ally/arch-nemesis "Lord Peter Ashe". A man whose political drive and ruthless scheming is equal to any pirate.
The production values are exceptional, especially for a TV show. Putting exquisite attention to detail into the costuming, props/weapons, and set design, once again courtesy of Production Designer Wolf Kroeger. A convincingly genuine period pirate series…Other than the fact that all the characters have a full set of teeth and are all a rather pretty bunch of murderous pirate whores.
Filming in Cape Town, South Africa offers an extra layer of authenticity. The talent behind the lens is equal to that in front. Picture postcard worthy photography perfectly compliments the design work. Every well-staged scene is full of exotic and lush beauty.
I'm still lovin' the peppered with genuine 18th century instruments musical score from Bear McCreary. The most satisfying opening credits crawl/theme music outside of 'Game of Thrones', or perhaps McCreary's other score for 'Outlander'.
A handful of stumbles. Most surrounding early episode wheeling/dealing before the stories/characters gain footing and all plans unite. And some of the characters are noticeably wishy-washy, especially bookkeeper Dufresne (recast with Roland Reed) who takes over as interim Captain after Flint's fateful decision-making last season. Dufresne was a much stronger character last year as the simple bookkeeper who becomes a pirate killer rather than this season's wormy, turncoat variation.
Let's talk about that finale. I wont spoil any of the fun, only to say, WOW! If last season's ship to ship pirate battle finish was too pussy for you, just wait. Taking on epic "PotC" levels of mayhem and destruction. All characters fighting for their lives amidst cannon balls exploding, swords cutting off limbs, and buildings falling down. By the end we are on the path for a much darker, much more "piratey" vision for Season Three:) Super cool!
There's added complexity this year, but not too much. Just enough to makes us love to hate these characters even more.
Season Two of Starz' pirate series 'Black Sails' is everything we love about pirates: wild, exciting sword fights, brutal killings, epic betrayals, damsels in distress, cataclysmic pirate ship duels, nasty villains, nasty "good guys", exotic locales, twisted humor, potent, shocking drama, and lots of f*cking:) Give this show a shot, you won't be disappointed. Highly Recommended.

Anita Blay aka CocknBullKid from East London just like myself is AMAZING, I can't remember when exactly I discovered her music but I have been hooked ever since.
Above is a free downloadable mixtape of all her old songs e.g. 'On My Own' 'Shake' - the mixtape was put together by Olugbenga of Metronomy.
CocknBullkid's debut album 'Adulthood' is released 23rd May - current single is 'Asthma Attack' - VERY catchy.

We received this picture from one of our favorite DSP stay-at-home dads. We had to share it and give a shout out to a dad who was willing to admit that having to clean up the mess was well worth the ten minutes of peace he got while she was busy making it.
(It must have been close to lunchtime since she appears to be chewing on a packaged protein bar.)
We LOVE our DSP SAHDs!

Easy Transfer for Perfect Embroidery
There are many times that I have to make neat embroideries for my customer's orders, especially when it involves with some specific fonts that I don't think my free hand drawing will make a perfect end result.
So, I use a flour pouch-transfer technique to transfer the pattern to the fabric, and it always works neatly for me.
First, make a small flour pouch, any flour you have, and secure it with elastic.
Second, print out the templates or artworks you want then use a needle to prick through the out-lines
Next, just slightly tab the flour pouch on the pricked template, just for flour to go through the tiny holes
Now your template is perfectly transfered to the fabric, ready to be embroidered. When it's finished you can just brush away the excess flour with a very damp cloth, and you'll have a perfect embroidery for your neat project.
Isn't it easy....Happy embroidering....crafty people.

What is clinical nutrition?
Clinical nutrition is the study of the relationship between food and a healthy body. More specifically, it is the science of nutrients and how they are digested, absorbed, transported, metabolized, stored, and eliminated by the body. Besides studying how food works in the body, nutritionists are interested in how the environment affects the quality and safety of foods, and what influence these factors have on health and disease.
What are nutrients?
What is the history of clinical nutrition?
The study of nutrition dates back to the 18th century, when the French chemist Lavoisier discovered a relationship between our metabolism of food and the process of breathing. By the early 20th century, scientists had found that diseases -- such as beri beri, rickets, scurvy, and pellagra -- were associated with certain diets. By 1912, the Polish chemist Casimir Funk had found a substance (vitamin B1) that actually prevented beri beri, and he named it "vitamine." Later it was found that these diseases were caused by the lack of specific nutrients -- vitamin B1 (thiamine), vitamin D, vitamin C, and vitamin B3 (niacin) respectively.
Researchers and scientists continue to find out more about how individual nutrients can help prevent and treat disease. But they are also learning how whole foods may allow nutrients to work together. For example, antioxidants like beta carotene, selenium, vitamin E, and vitamin C, when consumed in foods, appear to protect against the development of heart disease, cancer, and other chronic degenerative diseases.
The old RDAs have been replaced by Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs), which show how much of a nutrient we need every day to maximize health and lower the risk of chronic disease (in contrast to RDAs, which listed the minimum amount needed to prevent a deficiency). The field of clinical nutrition is now increasingly incorporated into mainstream medical treatment.
What are nutritional supplements?
The term "nutritional supplement" refers to vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that are used to support good health and treat illness. For example, plant compounds known as phytochemicals (found in tomatoes and soybeans) have powerful disease fighting properties. While it's best to get nutrients through the foods you eat, sometimes taking a supplement can help. For example, taking zinc supplements has been reported to shorten the duration of the common cold and lower the incidence of acute diarrhea in children.
How do vitamins and minerals work?
Vitamins and minerals play an essential role in the body's normal metabolism, growth, and development. For example, while a vitamin is not a source of energy by itself, it can provide the key the body needs to unlock energy stored in food. Some vitamins and minerals work together, such as the mineral zinc and vitamin A. Zinc enables the body to use vitamin A to promote good vision. Not getting enough vitamin A may lead to night blindness, a condition in which the eyes have trouble adjusting to darkness. Zinc supplementation may help prevent this condition by helping the body use vitamin A. Another example is calcium and vitamin D. Calcium, which is very important in bone and heart health, is more readily absorbed if vitamin D is also present.
Taking supplements, however, is not the answer to long term good health. Instead, combining a healthy diet with regular exercise and a positive mental attitude is the best bet for a healthy lifestyle.

Morning News Roundup
Chris Bosh Health Update: 'I've Been Gone… But Now I'm Back'
Chris Bosh, the Miami Heat forward, has vowed to return for the new season despite growing speculation that he could be forced into early retirement.
Chris Bosh, the Miami Heat forward, has vowed to return for the 2016-17 season despite growing speculation that the two-time NBA champion could be forced into early retirement.
The 32-year-old couldn't complete each of the last two seasons due to a persistent battle with blood clots, with the Miami Heat refusing to risk Bosh despite his insistence to get back on the court.
The veteran all-star took to social media on Monday to post a series of workout videos, announcing to the world that he's ready to resume his basketball career.
"I know I've been gone for a moment, but now I'm back. Everybody is always asking me, 'Am I hooping?' Yes, I'm hooping. I'm a hooper,'" the 11-time All-Star said while working out in an undisclosed gym.
According to a source close to ESPN, Bosh has informed the Miami Heat that he would be available for the pre-season training camp which begins on September 27. Of course, the Heat's medical staff is still to clear Bosh, a decision that could be met with challenges.
NBA Rumors: Cavs To Sign Free Agent Josh Smith?
Chris Bosh to return?
If Bosh is cleared to return, he would be a part of a new-look Miami Heat team that is without longtime franchise player Dwayne Wade, who departed to hometown team Chicago Bulls in free agency.
The Heat also lost veteran starters Luol Deng and Joe Johnson, besides placing the franchise tag on budding center Hassan Whiteside, who signed a monumental maximum contract this offseason.
A frontcourt comprising of Whiteside and Bosh could make some noise in the East even though Miami's backcourt is relatively inexperienced with the likes of Goran Dragic, Tyler Johnson, Josh Richardson and Dion Waiters trying to fill the void left by Wade
Last season, Bosh played just 44 games before a blood clot in his leg ruled him out. It was later revealed that the 11-time all-star suffered blood clots in his lungs and had to receive blood-thinning medication.
Back in April, Chris Bosh posted similar videos on social media, literally begging the Miami Heat to allow him to participate int he playoffs. However, Heat president Pat Riley wasn't ready to risk a potentially career-ending situation.
