I had NCC in college Air Wing. We had a Vayu-Sainik Camp which was to be held in Lucknow. Prior to that, a Pre-Vayu Sainik camp was held in Ludhiana, Punjab, where contingents from all over Punjab and Haryana participated where we were to be selected to represent Punjab.We boarded a train from Ludhiana to Lucknow. As it so happened, it was the time when the Ayodhya problem was going on. The trains were filled up with people going to Ayodhya. We found that our bogey was already full of such people and no one agreed to give us space to sit, although we had the bogey all booked. So, what happened next, happened in a jiffy.Someone pushed my friend Babbar and everything went haywire. The whole group of cadets went berserk. We threw each one of those guys out of the bogey to reclaim our berths. And so started the adventure, on the journey towards Lucknow.
Early morning, the train stopped at a place called Bareilly.It was a bit cold and the tea vendors came serving tea in earthen pots. Mahipal is another friend of mine who is very naughty and pulls pranks every now and then. Well, he was sitting on the berth next to the door.He was ordering tea for everybody. We all thought Mahipal is being very hearty buying tea for everyone, little did we know of his plan. Well, the train blew the horn, ready to move, and we could hear the guy arguing with him over some money. As the train started to move, we could hear the tea guy saying "Babu ji, paisa de do.. Nahin to acha nahin hoga"(give me the money or it wont be good for you)… but Mahipal did not budge. As the train caught speed, we could not believe what the tea man did! He filled a couple of cups with HOT TEA and threw it inside at us!!! And NOW, Mahipal had no SMILE, he was actually in pain where the hot tea had spilt on him. I would have loved to have a Camera at that time to take some pictures of full of Pain Mahipal 🙂
Just got over this episode, when we found that one of the cadets, oh bless! I have forgotten his name let's call him "A", he was found hanging for dear life at the door of the next bogey. We could see him banging the door, but no one was opening it. It was scary and we tried pulling the chain but the train would not stop. We were shouting, screaming but a moving train no one could listen. Then someone had the idea of waving red clothes, we had our shirts, tees, turbans all red-coloured, waving outside. We crossed a few stations and about half an hour later, the train started to slow down. The moment it stopped, each one of us rushed out,shouting for the people in the next bogey to open the doors.. The train guard – the driver all came over.. We found that the next bogey was full of Army personnel and they had a lot of ammunition in the bogey. They didn't open the door fearing they were being attacked! HOW STUPID THE EXCUSE SEEMS!! (Thinking now had we got mobile phones we could have rung the emergency people or the police , to alert them about what was going on , It could have ended in a tragedy this little episode.)
Finally we reached Lucknow station to find out that the city was under curfew. We had nowhere to go, there were so many people on the platform. We took a corner, put all our luggage and stuff and sat waiting for some news. An hour or so later, we saw Mahipal come running with a couple of dozens of bananas. "Eat them, eat them.. hurry!!!", he started to change his clothes while we had the bananas. Then we saw a man come with a big can, to tell us the story that he had been conned into selling bananas in exchange for 5 ltr can of kerosene oil .What had happened was Mahipal had found an empty kerosene canister, filled it with water, obviously the upper layer was full of oil. Hence the barter was made and the poor man, pranked. 😀
So, the adventure continued for the next 20 days in Lucknow which was under curfew, while our camp was in the army area. But more fun started when the girls' contingent arrived. Each day after 5pm, the whole lot of us would make sure to have a bath and get ready in our best clothes to impress the girls. IT was in that camp that I first saw a beautiful girl. It was love at first sight, at least from my side :). 50% I was in …
After the initial few days of doing the typical boy thing walking around her, making sure I was there when she came out of girls camp site, the whole camp almost knew about this. I am sure she knew it too, although she denied knowing it. I was trying every possible way to get to talk to her but never got an opportunity something or the other always came in between. It was typical Bollywood scenes.
We were the bad boys of the camp, ended up in so many fights with other boys to prove that Punjab boys were the strongest. One day,we had this massive fight with the Agra boys. We had a boy on floor, me on top of him in a duel, and guess who comes by, SHE! The Camp Commandant gets to hear about our heroics, well it was heroics then, so what happens he calls me and Babbar to have a word with him, and IT HAD TO BE right in front of the Girls Camp gate! The CC is shouting at us.. he goes onto say "You with the RED Jacket, who do you think you are, You hit me 20 times I will not fall down But If I give you one punch, you will go flying".. I HAD TO LAUGH AT THE DIALOGUE.. because I was almost 6ft, well-built and this guy was about 5ft 4inches, thin, Oh I so wanted to punch the living daylights out of him. AT THAT precise moment, the girl's dinner bell goes, out comes SHE, watching me shouted at.
I have never felt so embarrassed in my life! I am sure she wished she had a camera to take a quick picture of me at that time 🙂
Soon, all the girls – even the ones from Chandigarh contingent stopped talking to us.
On the last day of the camp, we had a cultural show. The boys were performing the Bhangra, the girls had their Gidha, after our performance we were all standing together when my friends started to push me towards her, it was out in the open. I finally got the courage to go up to her and proposed to her the typical Punjabi style .. "I want to be fraaannds with you" To which she replied we are already friends ..OH now what… I blurted "No not that way, the other way" 🙂 …she walked away I did not see her again that evening.
Next day we were to take the trains back to Punjab, I tried my level best to look for her, she was nowhere to be found, It was turmoil, my Sargent was shouting at me to hurry , in the end with a heavy heart thinking this is it I jumped in the last truck ferrying us to the station. My love story finished before it started…
We reached the station to find that there were two trains that we were booked on. Our train was at about 3pm, the girls' train was at about 5pm. I was waiting, fingers crossed that there was still a chance to see her but luck was running away. Meanwhile, Mahipal was at his tricks, he was going around collecting money to go and buy some kebabs. Sometime later, he returned with them. As we had the first kebab, he made a comment saying they are beef … oooops with so many people into religion, we could see them trying to vomit it all out and GUESS what more kebabs for us.
As I was feasting on the kebab, Babbar told me "she" wants to talk to me, Oh my god, I went up to "HER", there she was smiling, I didn't know what to say when she handed me something gift wrapped, (The reason I could not see her all day was because she was running around for a gift for me .. awwww (I know) ) .. I was gob smacked did not know what to say, Opened the present it said "Dear Bikram .. Lots of Love R".. That was a MIRACLE.. How did it happen , why did it happen ..
I don't remember what we talked or what I even said. But I was the happiest person on that platform, I remember sitting on one those army trunks talking for so long. My friends making funny faces at us, while her friends kept doing the same to her.
Then came the time to board the trains, I did not want to go, so I went to Babbar and told him I Want to go in the next train, he was like how is it possible, We found out that 10 boys of Ambala contingent were going in the same bogey as the girls (lucky devils, i cursed the person who had booked out tickets). We talked to their Sergeant but he would not budge saying do what we may, we will not be allowed to go in the girls' bogey.
I was not going to give up, First time in my life some girl had liked me, was talking to me , so now the race started to find someone to swap my place, but no one would agree. Who would want to do that, go with boys when they could go with such lovely beautiful girls in the same bogey… So we had to do what we had to do.
The 3pm train started to move… We caught hold of two guys from Ambala , dragged them to our bogey, where they were kept hold of. Both the trains were to pass the station at Bareilly, the idea was at Bareilly, the idea was I will get down there, wait for the second train to come, board it and be with HER. It would be dark, hopefully the Sergeant won't see me enter the bogey.
Bareilly station came I got down with a friend, waited for the second train to come, then started looking for the bogey… suddenly I heard a voice "Bikram"… oh bless the sweetest voice.. another MIRACLE She had kept a seat for me next to her's… we talked and talked the whole night, the next day… we both expressed our love for each other. So that's how my LOVE started.
Wish in those days we had the luxury of Mobile phones or Cameras, to take pictures it would have been so beautiful to have captured those moments in camera, or the mobile phone would have come very handy when trying to figure out what bogey she was sitting in. Today, everything has become so easy, with the Internet and smart phones making love easier than before. But those times were difficult times, and who knows how many such love stories must be floating in the hearts of many a people like me.

Disclaimer: This post contains opinions and statements that are mine and may not be representative of other students and faculty within this program.
The School of Information Sciences (SIS) at the University of Tennessee is ranked 17th in the U.S. News rankings of library science programs. The School has roots as far back as 1928 and has been accredited by the American Library Association since 1972. It is a housed within the College of Communication and Information (CCI). With twelve full time faculty members and over 200 students in the program, SIS offers a Master's of Science in Information Science and, through CCI, a doctoral degree.
The degree requires 42 semester hours and successful completion of a capstone project (explained later). All students are required to take three core courses during the first semester upon entering the program (they are offered both online and on campus), and they include:
- The Information Environment
This is the introductory course dealing with the history of the field, terminology, current trends, and introduction to the many information professions.
- Information Representation and Organization
This course teaches basic cataloging skills, metadata, and classification systems.
- Information Access and Retrieval
This course introduces reference services, database searching, and information services and tools.
At this point, students can proceed towards any number of specializations. SIS does not offer prescribed tracks in the traditional sense. The school library program is the closest to a track SIS has since the students not only need to learn how to be a librarian, but also get their state teaching certification. In addition to that program, students can take courses in academic libraries, archives, digital libraries, public libraries, information technologies, and more.
Financial Aid
SIS offers a number of assistantships in the form of teaching and research assistantships. Many of these include full or partial tuition waivers and a small stipend. There are also general graduate assistantships available elsewhere within the wider university. In addition to that, some departments hire students as part-time employees. Several of my classmates work part time at the main Hodges Library on campus. This gives them great experience and helps defray the cost of their education.
Students are offered the opportunity to complete a practicum (or two) sometime during their schooling. The practicum offers the student the ability to work within the profession in a position that suites their goals. Practica have been completed in the university libraries, such as the main Hodges Library, the Pendergrass Veterinary Library, and the Preston Medical Library. Practica have also been completed at local public libraries, other university and college libraries, and at Oak Ridge National Laboratory library. Each practicum is worth three credits towards the degree.
Culminating Experience/Capstone Project
The University of Tennessee requires all graduate students, regardless of degree, to complete a capstone project to qualify for a degree. There are three options at SIS for this capstone:
- Comprehensive exams
- Thesis
- ePortfolio (be on the lookout for my future post about the eportfolio in which I explain all its benefits and attempt to persuade you to do one even if it's not a requirement in your program.)
Other posts have mentioned the overemphasis on theory in some programs. My experience with SIS has been that the faculty balance the dichotomy between theory and practice very well. I believe one of the program's strengths is the background of the faculty, many of whom worked for many years in a library environment.
Another major SIS strength is the ability for students to complete their degree entirely online. With the exception of coming to campus for orientation, distance students don't have to come back to campus until graduation. Almost all courses are offered online. This opportunity greatly expands the reach of the program and makes obtaining a degree attainable for more people.
Additionally, the caliber of the faculty scholarship is an asset to the program. The per capita productivity of the program's faculty is ranked No. 1 among library and information science researchers (Adkins and Budd, 2006). Many members of the faculty are recognized internationally as experts in their fields.
The relatively small faculty can be a disadvantage, since the number of courses offered is rather limited. Some classes come around only once every other year, which means students have to plan more carefully to get all the classes they want.
Moreover, even for those students who live in Knoxville, almost all classes after the initial three required courses are offered online only. SIS is very progressive in this area, having offered classes online since 1999. This means that even if you are an on-campus student, you won't take many, if any, classes on-campus after your first semester. I felt that this was not clearly communicated to the students prior to orientation. While not a huge problem, students who prefer to be in a traditional classroom setting might be disappointed with this arrangement.
Overall, I believe the School of Information Sciences at the University of Tennessee to be a top-tier program that can and often does compete with the best. Its graduates are highly qualified and well prepared to enter the working world whether in a traditional library or in an emerging field. I encourage you to consider the University of Tennessee and the School of Information Sciences — a great education in a beautiful setting. It's just an hour's drive to hiking and mountain biking in the Great Smoky Mountains, or you can hop on a boat on the lazy Tennessee River. What more could you ask for?

Jessica Tandy
Life Path Number 5
Jessica Tandy was a female celebrity.
She was born on Monday June 7th 1909, in London, England.
The key to Jessica's personality is freedom. Jessica loves travel, adventure, variety and meeting new people. She possesses the curiosity of a cat and longs to experience all of life.
Jessica Tandy loves to be involved in several things at the same time as long as she is not tied down to any one area. Tandy likes change, new things and new horizons. She makes friends easily; her personality is upbeat and often inspiring attracting people from all walks of life. Jessica has a way with words and an uncanny ability to motivate others. She can be in sales, advertising, publicity, promotion, politics or any profession that requires communication skills and understanding of people.
Jessica Tandy likely lacks discipline and order. She can also be impulsive, doing or expressing things she regrets later. Freedom and a need for adventure sometimes is not properly controlled by those born with this Life Path, causing problems with drug abuse, overindulgence in food or sex, or generally abusing the gift of life.
Jessica is sensual and loves to taste all of life. Sex, food and other sensory experiences are essential to the enjoyment of her life. She finds it difficult to commit to one relationship, but once committed, Jessica Tandy can be as faithful as an old dog.
She is multi-talented and possesses a variety of diverse abilities. However, discipline and focus are the true keys to Tandy's success. Without these, many of the tasks Jessica begins will remain unfinished and she will fail to realize the true fruits of her abilities. With hard work and perseverance, however, the sky is the limit. Jessica Tandy may be perceived as a wild child by adults and a source of concern by her family. However, she must not be obliged to hurry her choice of career. She is often a late-bloomer and needs to experience life before she can truly know and commit to her heart's desire. Jessica's challenge is to learn the true meaning of freedom. Change is constant in her world, requiring adaptability and courage.
Jessica Tandy should try to maintain an exercise program, keep her body in shape and limber. The flexibility and durability of Tandy's body will promote security and confidence within her. Jessica yearns for freedom, and self-employment attracts her powerfully. Her challenge is to settle into one area to cultivate her ability sufficiently to earn a living and attain success. Once Jessica Tandy finds her niche, the motivation and inspiration she supplies others with will bring her much in return, and Tandy will find her friends and colleagues supporting and promoting her on the road to success.
You and Jessica
About Jessica's Life Path number
If ever there was a single moment of total transformation, it was actually the moment of Jessica Tandy's birth. In that instant, Jessica stepped through a door in time into a new reality - the reality of human life. The most critical number in Tandy's numerology chart is based on the date of her birth - the moment when the curtain went up in Jessica Tandy's life.

Offering support to maintain and possibly increase populations of specific rare breeds under the Rural Development Programme 2014-2020 of Ireland.
Offering support to maintain and possibly increase populations of specific rare breeds under the Rural Development Programme 2014-2020 of Ireland.
A family farm invested in soil conservation practices to increase its capacity to store water and its microbial biomass activity.
The project took nature-friendly vine cultivation on a family farm a step further to develop zero-waste processing methods that valorise all by-products of grapes in a sustainable and fully circular way. The resulting seeds, oil and flour have proved very popular with customers.
Organic and biodynamic farms cooperate to jointly acquire conservation tillage equipment (subsoilers and no till seeding machine) to enhance soil quality, reduce pollution and maximise their soil's capacity to act as a carbon sink
An example of sustainable cultivation of olive trees and extraction of olive oil using innovative ultrasound techniques.
An organic mountain farm uses indigenous breeds to produce high-quality meat, while preserving the local environment and genetic resources.
A farmer in a Less Favoured Area turned to organic agriculture and began growing ancient varieties of cereals. He has achieved sustainability through niche, quality production.
An example of a large-scale previously state owned farm, which now successfully combines economic sustainability and the provision of public goods.

Tyson Wins Bidding War to Gobble Up Hillshire
NEW YORK | Tyson Foods Inc. has won a bidding war to gobble up Hillshire Brands, the maker of Jimmy Dean sausages and Ball Park hot dogs.
Tyson had been vying with rival poultry producer Pilgrim's Pride to acquire Hillshire, which wrapped up its bidding process Sunday. Tyson's final offer ended up at $63 per share, about two weeks after Pilgrim's Pride made an initial bid of $45 per share.
Pilgrim's Pride, which is owned by Brazilian meat giant JBS, said Monday that it was bowing out of the competition.
Still, the deal is not sealed yet. It is contingent on the termination of Hillshire's offer to acquire Pinnacle Foods Inc., which makes Birds Eye frozen vegetables and Wish-Bone salad dressings. Pinnacle could choose to cut bait and walk away with $163 million breakup fee, or force the deal to a vote by Hillshire shareholders.
A Pinnacle representative didn't return a call for comment.
In a conference call with reporters, Tyson CEO Donnie Smith said he was confident the $63 offer would end up being worthwhile for Tyson shareholders, despite how high the price went.
"Great brands like Jimmy Dean and Ball Park just don't become available very often," Smith said.
Hillshire's stock closed at $36.95 on May 9, the day before the company announced the Pinnacle deal. On Monday afternoon after the deal was announced, its shares were up 5 percent at $61.89.
Tyson, like Pilgrim's Pride, has been looking to boost its presence in brand-name, prepared foods like Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwiches.
Those types of products are more profitable than fresh meat, such as chicken breasts, where there isn't as much wiggle room to pad prices.
While Tyson and Pilgrim's Pride already sell some brand-name products, their businesses have been more focused on supplying supermarkets and restaurant chains.
In particular, Tyson said it was drawn by Hillshire's stable of breakfast foods, which would better position it in the fast-growing category.
Tyson also noted the potential for cost savings by combining supply chains, transportation and other operations with Hillshire.
But Smith said it was too early to comment on how many jobs could be cut as a result of the deal.
Tyson's offer will be in place until Dec. 12, the final termination date of the deal with Pinnacle.
Hillshire Brands noted it does not have the right to end the deal with Pinnacle on the basis of the Tyson offer, or enter into an agreement with Tyson before the deal is terminated.
"There can be no assurance that any transaction will result from the Tyson Foods offer," Hillshire said in a statement.
Hillshire, based in Chicago, had been trying to diversify its own portfolio by moving into other areas of the supermarket with the $4.23 billion acquisition of Pinnacle.
But some investors questioned the wisdom of that deal, given the outdated image of many Pinnacle brands and the differences in the two companies' product portfolios.
The offer from Tyson is worth $7.75 billion based on Hillshire's 123 million shares outstanding.
Tyson values the deal at $8.55 billion, including debt.
Tyson shares fell 2 percent in premarket trading.

Pamela Reiss works with her parents catering business and store in Winnipeg, Canada. By her own admission she's not a trained Chef, yet judging by this book, the lady can cook!!!
I've seen quite a few Passover cookbooks over the years, some very good, some mediocre. This one is excellent! It shows imagination, understanding of the subtle nuances of flavor and has so many delicious recipes.
Among my favorites is the Spinach and Zucchini Soup with the Matzo Ball. For the Mains I have a tough time choosing between the Black Currant Miami Ribs, the Old Fashioned Beef Flanken, the Brisket with Onion Gravy, the Slow Cooked Brisket with Tomato Sauce, or the Pineapple Turkey Meatballs. For desserts there are quite a few that could become my new favorites, among them any of the variations of Crème Brûlée…
Pineapple Turkey Meatballs
Serves 6 – Meat
To make a lighter version, I'll often use ground turkey or chicken as a substitute for beef in meatballs. But this recipe was created with turkey in mind — I think the sauce works well with turkey, but don't let that stop you if you want to try it with chicken or beef!
28 oz. | 796 mL canned whole tomatoes
2 large garlic cloves, crushed
2 tsp. | 10 mL fresh ginger, minced
20 oz. | 565 g canned pineapple chunks, with the juice
2 oz. | 55 g brown sugar (¼ cup | 60 mL)
3 Tbsp. | 45 mL tomato paste
1 ½ lbs. | 680 g ground turkey
1 large egg
5 oz. | 140 g yellow onion, peeled and finely minced
(1 small)
1 tsp. | 5 mL fresh ginger, minced
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tsp. | 5 mL salt
¼ tsp. | 1 mL black pepper
2 ¼ oz. | 65 g matzo meal (½ cup | 120 mL)
2 Tbsp. | 30 mL cold water
Preheat the oven to 350°F | 175°C.
Put the whole tomatoes with the juice into a mixing bowl and use an immersion blender to puree. Add the rest of the sauce ingredients and stir together.
In another mixing bowl, combine the meatball ingredients and mix well.
Ladle some sauce into the bottom of an oven-safe baking dish.
Form the turkey mixture into balls the size of large walnuts — you should get about 24.
Lay as many meatballs as you can on top of the sauce in a single layer and pour some sauce over them.
Add the remaining meatballs in a second layer and add the remaining sauce, spooning it on and making sure that all the meatballs are covered.
Cover the dish with a lid or aluminum foil and bake for 1 ½ hours.
Remove from the oven and serve or chill and reheat for serving later.
The book's title refers to Passover but, frankly, with so many delicious recipes it's a book for all seasons. Ms. Reiss has taken heimish cooking to new heights.
You can obtain the book directly from her website, amazon.com or Eichler's in Brooklyn

Main Content
Top of the pageCheck Your Symptoms
At one time or another, everyone has had a minor toe, foot, or ankle injury that caused pain or swelling. Most of the time our body movements do not cause problems, but it's not surprising that symptoms develop from everyday wear and tear, overuse, or an injury.
Toe, foot, or ankle injuries most commonly occur during:
In children, most toe, foot, or ankle injuries occur during sports, play, or falls. The risk for injury is higher in sports with jumping, such as basketball, or sports with quick direction change, such as soccer or football. Any bone injury near a joint may injure the growth plate (physis) in a child and needs to be evaluated.
Certain athletes, such as dancers, gymnasts, or soccer or basketball players, have an increased risk of toe, foot, or ankle injuries.
Older adults are at higher risk for injuries and fractures because they lose muscle mass and bone strength as they age. They also have more problems with vision and balance, which increases their risk of injury.
Most minor injuries will heal on their own, and home treatment is usually all that is needed to relieve your symptoms and promote healing.
An acute injury may occur from a direct blow, a penetrating injury, or a fall, or from twisting, jerking, jamming, or bending a limb abnormally. Your pain may be sudden and severe. Bruising and swelling may develop soon after your injury. Acute injuries include:
Overuse injuries occur when too much stress is placed on your joint or other tissue, often by "overdoing" an activity or repeating the same activity over and over. Overuse injuries include:
Treatment for your toe, foot, or ankle injury may include first aid measures (such as the application of a brace, splint, or cast), a special shoe (orthotic device), physiotherapy, medicine, and, in some cases, surgery. Treatment depends on:
Check your symptoms to decide if and when you should see a doctor.
Many things can affect how your body responds to a symptom and what kind of care you may need. These include:
You have answered all the questions. Based on your answers, you may be able to take care of this problem at home.
Pain in adults and older children
Major trauma is any event that can cause very serious injury, such as:
Pain in children under 3 years
It can be hard to tell how much pain a baby or toddler is in.
Pain in children 3 years and older
Shock is a life-threatening condition that may quickly occur after a sudden illness or injury.
Adults and older children often have several symptoms of shock. These include:
Shock is a life-threatening condition that may occur quickly after a sudden illness or injury.
Babies and young children often have several symptoms of shock. These include:
With severe bleeding, any of these may be true:
With moderate bleeding, any of these may be true:
With mild bleeding, any of these may be true:
When an area turns blue, very pale, or cold, it can mean that there has been a sudden change in the blood supply to the area. This can be serious.
There are other reasons for colour and temperature changes. Bruises often look blue. A limb may turn blue or pale if you leave it in one position for too long, but its normal colour returns after you move it. What you are looking for is a change in how the area looks (it turns blue or pale) and feels (it becomes cold to the touch), and this change does not go away.
Symptoms of infection may include:
Certain health conditions and medicines weaken the immune system's ability to fight off infection and illness. Some examples in adults are:
Usually found in dirt and soil, tetanus bacteria typically enter the body through a wound. Wounds may include a bite, a cut, a puncture, a burn, a scrape, insect bites, or any injury that may cause broken skin.
You may need a tetanus shot depending on how dirty the wound is and how long it has been since your last shot.
Based on your answers, you may need care soon. The problem probably will not get better without medical care.
Based on your answers, you may need care right away. The problem is likely to get worse without medical care.
Based on your answers, you need emergency care.
Call 911 or other emergency services now.
Sometimes people don't want to call 911. They may think that their symptoms aren't serious or that they can just get someone else to drive them. But based on your answers, the safest and quickest way for you to get the care you need is to call 911 for medical transport to the hospital.
Put direct, steady pressure on the wound until help arrives. Keep the area raised if you can.
Sometimes people don't want to call 911. They may think that their symptoms aren't serious or that they can just get someone else to drive them. But based on your answers, the safest and quickest way for you to get the care you need is to call 911 for medical transport to the hospital.
Based on your answers, the problem may not improve without medical care.
Most minor injuries will heal on their own, and home treatment is usually all that is needed to relieve your symptoms and promote healing. But if you suspect that you may have a more severe injury, use first aid measures while you arrange for an evaluation by your doctor.
If a cast or splint is applied, be sure to keep it dry, and try to move the uninjured part of your extremity as normally as possible to help maintain muscle strength and tone. Your doctor will give you instructions on how to care for your cast or splint.
If you have a minor injury, try home treatment measures to relieve pain, swelling, and stiffness.
Range-of-motion exercises
Begin gentle range-of-motion exercises right after your injury while you have ice on your ankle. Perform a set of exercises by repeating them 10 to 30 times. Do each set 3 to 5 times a day.
Try the following simple range-of-motion exercises:
Towel curls. While sitting, place a hand towel on a smooth floor, such as wood or tile. While keeping your heel on the ground, curl your toes and grab the towel with your toes to scrunch the towel. Let go, and continue scrunching up the entire length of the towel. When you reach the end of the towel, reverse the action by grabbing the towel with your toes, scrunching it, and pushing it away from you. Repeat the exercise until you have pushed the entire length of the towel away from you.
Stretching exercises
About 48 to 72 hours after your injury, start exercises to stretch your Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles on the back of the lower leg to the bone at the base of the heel.
Towel stretch. If you can't stand, sit with your knee straight and a towel looped around the ball of your foot. Gently and slowly pull back on the towel for 15 to 30 seconds until you feel your calf stretch. Repeat 2 to 4 times. In moderate to severe ankle sprains, at first it may be too painful to pull your toes far enough to feel a stretch in your calf. Use caution, and let pain be your guide. A little pain is normal, but you should not feel moderate to severe pain. Do this exercise 2 or 3 times each day for about a week. Then, make Achilles stretches part of your daily routine to maintain flexibility.
Calf stretch. If you are able to stand, you can do this exercise by facing a wall with your hands at shoulder level on the wall. Place your injured foot behind the other with the toes pointing forward. Keep your heels down and your back leg straight. Slowly bend your front knee until you feel the calf stretch in the back leg. Repeat as above.
Strengthening exercises
As soon as you can bear weight without increased pain or swelling, begin muscle-strengthening exercises. These exercises should be held for 3 to 5 seconds. Do 15 to 20 repetitions once or twice daily for 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the severity of your injury.
Start by sitting with your foot flat on the floor and pushing it outward against an immovable object such as a wall or heavy furniture. After you feel comfortable with this, try using rubber tubing looped around the outside of your feet for resistance.
While still sitting, put your feet together flat on the floor. Press your injured foot inward against your other foot.
Next, place the heel of your other foot on top of the injured one. Push down with the top heel while trying to push up with your injured foot.
Balance and control exercises
When you are able to stand without pain, you can begin balance and control exercises. You can start by standing in a doorway and lightly holding on to the doorjamb. When you can do this for 60 seconds, try adding the advanced moves in the next level.
Stand on your injured foot only and hold your arms:
Do six repetitions, holding each for 60 seconds, once a day.
Do not smoke or use other tobacco products. Smoking slows healing because it decreases blood supply and delays tissue repair. For more information, see the topic Quitting Smoking.
Try a non-prescription medicine to help treat your pain:
Talk to your child's doctor before switching back and forth between doses of acetaminophen and ibuprofen. When you switch between two medicines, there is a chance your child will get too much medicine.
Be sure to follow these safety tips when you use a non-prescription medicine:
Call your doctor if any of the following occur during home treatment:
The following tips may prevent toe, foot, or ankle injuries.
Injuries such as bruises, burns, fractures, cuts, or punctures may be a sign of abuse. Suspect possible abuse when an injury cannot be explained or does not match the explanation, repeated injuries occur, or the explanations for the cause of the injury change. You may be able to prevent further abuse by reporting it and seeking help.
To prepare for your appointment, see the topic Making the Most of Your Appointment.
You can help your doctor diagnose and treat your condition by being prepared to answer the following questions:

Patients & Families
For Health Professionals
Uric acid is produced by the breakdown of purines, chemicals that enter the bloodstream during digestion of foods or from normal breakdown of some of the body's cells. The kidneys filter out most of the uric acid in the blood and eliminate it from the body in the urine. Some uric acid also leaves the body in the feces.
Uric acid can accumulate when the body produces too much or fails to excrete enough of it. Excess uric acid can also form crystals or kidney stones that can damage the kidneys.
Doctors may order a uric acid blood test if they suspect high levels of uric acid in the bloodstream because the body is breaking down cells too quickly or not expelling uric acid as well as it should. Some children with leukemia or other types of cancer can have high levels of uric acid (hyperuricemia).
The uric acid blood test also can help doctors monitor kids receiving chemotherapy or radiation treatment. These treatments can increase the amount of uric acid in the blood, so the test can help make sure that levels don't get too high.
The uric acid blood test also may be ordered if kids show signs of kidney failure. Low levels of uric acid (hypouricemia) in the bloodstream can occur with starvation and certain medical conditions.
Rarely, excess uric acid in kids can cause gout, a very painful inflammation caused by uric acid crystals in joint fluid (also called synovial fluid). Gout most often affects the joints of the ankles, feet, and toes.
There is usually no special preparation required for this test. Your doctor may ask that your child not eat or drink anything for 4 hours before the uric acid blood test, and also might tell you to stop any medications your child takes that could affect test results.
On the day of the test, it may help to have your child wear a T-shirt or short-sleeved shirt to allow easier access for the technician who will be drawing the blood.
A health professional will clean the skin surface with antiseptic and place an elastic band (tourniquet) around the upper arm to apply pressure and cause the veins to swell with blood. Then a needle is inserted into a vein (usually in the arm inside of the elbow or on the back of the hand) and blood is withdrawn and collected in a vial or syringe.
After the procedure, the elastic band is removed. Once the blood has been collected, the needle is removed and the area is covered with cotton or a bandage to stop the bleeding. Collecting the blood for the test will only take a few minutes.
Collecting a blood sample is only temporarily uncomfortable and can feel like a quick pinprick. Afterward, there may be some mild bruising, which should go away in a few days.
The blood sample will be processed by a machine. The results usually are available within 1-2 days.
The uric acid blood test is considered a safe procedure. However, as with many medical tests, some problems can occur with having blood drawn, like:
Having a blood test is relatively painless. Still, many children are afraid of needles. Explaining the test in terms your child can understand might help ease any fear.
Allow your child to ask the technician any questions he or she might have. Tell your child to try to relax and stay still during the procedure, as tensing muscles and moving can make it harder and more painful to draw blood. It also may help for your child to look away when the needle is being inserted into the skin.
If you have questions about the uric acid blood test, speak with your doctor. You also can talk to the technician before the procedure.

Anderson Cooper tackles the Beyoncé lip-syncing controversy and comes up singing her tune on the RidicuList.
Next people are going to be shocked when they find out the recording was Melodyned. It is now a verb just like google.
If you go for concert or live, do you accept your favorite singer was acutely lip singing ? Same thing here too. Surely thousand of people were waiting under cold weather to hear her live singing, Maybe Beyonce was forced to do that to avoid what happened recently Lupe Fiasco Anti-Obama Song at Inaugural Event.
Beyonce Knowles is the only singer in 200 years in US history to lip sync at a Presidential Inauguration.
She stood in front of the Military, The President, Congress and former Presidents: Tthey stood for the National Anthem & they put their hands over their hearts–and she had a CD player under the stage playing the National Anthem, while she pretended to sing to them.
.....Anyone who says thats "no big deal" should be ashamed of themselves.
Anderson, I have pondered making a comment for a few days now and decided I would go ahead. The whole issue about lip syncing is not big deal but singing the National Anthem is. It is a pride song and you dont know how people feel about that song. Listen to the words. Most of us in the military carry that song to heart and most Americans have pride in that song. I am not questioning her patriotism but maybe she doesnt feel that about the Anthem. My take is this....In the words of the Five Heartbeats, if you are not going to do it right, then dont do it at all.
How about do the lip sync with out a microphone, so we know it.
I think we would all be surprised by how many performances are lip synced now days. It has been going on almost since TV was invented. But for something as big as the Inauguration, or the Super Bowl, or even a concert in a stadium I would hope the person has enough talent to do it live.
Thank you! Ditto. If you are a 10, then live up to it. People admire and recognize God-given talents. We are talking about a 2 minute performance and only 1 verse of a 4-versed song that we were all brought up with. We are not saying she isn't pretty, but a 10 in a studio prerecorded...I don't think now that she 'stole the show.'
wow any one knows that if you are singing in a colder area sometimes your voice will crack she was just safe guarding herself from making a mistake her performance was great get a like haters!!!!
if beyonce did lip sync she was doing it to her voice so it really doesn't matter.
You have tickets for a Beyonce concert. You paid a lot of money. Would it be acceptable for her to lip sync her way through the concert? If no, why not? Frankly lip sync could have been done by a drag queen dressed up to look like her and lip sync her song. If it is to you acceptable that she lip sync her (or any other singer) way through a concert do you think you should full ticket price even though you may or may not be hearing a recording and not her?
So when did the Presidential inauguration become a concert?
Don't understand why everyone hides their head in the sand. It's obvious Beyonce wanted to go with the prerecorded version, therefore the US Marine Band did as they were told. To add insult to injury people accuse them of faking playing their instruments. They had to. Beyonce needs to be a woman and admit the truth. Yes, it's not earth shattering but the truth is the truth. BTW Jennifer Hudson looked and sounded beautiful as well as Kelly Clarkson.
So why was she even at the inauguration if she wasn't going to bother singing? They could have just played the tape. If it's not a big deal....then why did she pretend to sing instead of just playing the tape and standing there? She even robbed the Marine Corps band of the chance to play live for the president on his inauguration. I doubt many of them were pleased to sit there and have to fake is so that they wouldn't be out of sync with her recorded vocals.
ABSOLUTELY! We pay a high price for people who are better than we are and we put them on a pedestal. These are supposed to be 'the best of the best.' She was blessed with beauty and a voice...a cut above. Two minutes it took, regardless of conditions...and what she supposedly does for a living and what made her who she is! I cannot believe Anderson said what he did...a man who puts his life on the line in his job and for more than 2 minutes when he too can prerecord in a studio and put war scenes behind him with a computer!!!!
B is a professional singer – she shouldn't have lipped it!
It's appalling. She's a fricken' singer for cryin' out loud. That's her profession! She can't even sing live for the Presidents Inauguration? Maybe she's not the singer I thought she was after all. Does she lip sync all her "live" concerts too? She's clearly had practice at it. This acceptance of lip syncing has gone way too far. It's not acceptable!
The US Marine band was faking it to a recording, too. I don't think we know who made the call to play a tape rather than perform live, but I do think—for the sake of the show/mission/event—the marine spokesperson should have kept her mouth shut. She just made everybody look bad for no purpose.
I agree. They always pre-record and have been doing it for years. So I think the ppl whom complaining about it do not understand the purpose of pre-recording it. Isnt it for just in case it have to be lip sync
It dosnt matter as long as she did it they should be happy to have her there.
who cares if Beyonce sang live or not....isn't there more important news? Why are people making such a big deal of this?
Agreed...didn't seem to be such a big deal when Yo Yo Ma played along to a recording at the previous inauguration...
Well it's gotten worse! Now CNN is investigating more into the Beyoncé lip-synching situation.
It turns out Beyoncé DID lip sync the entire National Anthem. Everyone performed LIVE, Beyonce lip sync. Whatta coward!
I TOTALLY agree. The issue is that the all the other singers were singing LIVE.
Well it could've been a whole lot worst than Ashley Simpson's car crash SNL performance, here in the UK at a telethon back in October, Cheryl Cole was caught lip-syncing during her performance, until she noticed 90 seconds later when she realised there were no vocal tape. Just proving miming may not be the best option.
OMG – I don't hear anyone talking about this but the media. No one cares!!!!! Put it to bed people!!!
I agree 100%. What's the big deal. She SANG the song at some point. Move on people.....!
Oh give it up this is nuts! Who cares if it was recorded it was still wonderful! It was still her. So find something more worth while to complain about. KIDS!
"A clean mouth and honest hand, will take a man through any land."
For those who complain about the recording....you try singing in the freezing cold and wind. Trying to breath under those conditions can be a chalenge. Get over it!
It's amazing that people sing this great song live. why amazing? some succeed and some don't. This singer (beyonce) is a coward. She's afraid she is going to boch those lyrics. i am not a very good singer and i, too, can screw up those francis scott key lyrics. Sing the song LIVE or don't sing it. Anderson Cooper disagrees with me (if you saw AC360 Tuesday night 1-22-2013). So Anderson, sing the song live and respectfully or don't sing it and that's "keeping THIS honest."
Thank you, Anderson!!! Who cares! It was damn cold for anyone's voice. Amen.
lip sic or not that was the best rendering i have ever heard of our nations son
Sorry Anderson, but you missed the mark on this one. Many real singers have sung for important events outside in the cold LIVE, because that's what we are paid to do! That's why we're called professionals. Would you call someone a journalist if they sat in their room and did all of their work inside the office instead of the frontlines? Would that still make them journalists if they don't do the work you've done? Let's tell the football players to allow holograms to watch them play outside in the cold to their likeness of skill. Well the same goes here. Yeah, I've sung before important officials, so I'm taking to YOU. You disrespect our profession by saying "who cares", because we work damn hard and spend lots of money to sing in the cold and NOT lip sync to entertain the masses. In the studio, Beyonce's voice was mastered and perfected.That's not completely her voice alone. Something Kelly Clarkston and James Taylor didn't have, which therefore made the playing field unfair. It's inauthentic and disrespectful on her part to fake a performance. This is not Soul Train, it's an inauguration. If she couldn't do it, there's plenty of famous singers who had the chops to pull it off. Many professional singers are PISSED off, because we work for years to have the ability to sing in these conditions, and because the public is blinded by her studio appeal, she gets a pass. Had it would have been a new singer in the game, you would crucify them. It seems to me the public is more interested in image than skill. That's why America should care. Everyone's faking their way through things and fooling the masses to get money, and we are always taking the easy way out instead of facing the giants.This is the new American way, and I hate it. My hats go off to all of the famous singers who have the guts to sing live because they respect the craft.
Amen to that. She is the last person who should get a pass. If the others didn't get the advantage then she shouldn't. People pay a lot to see her perform, how can they really know its her live? But I do agree that I really couldn't care less. She still will be beautiful and rich at the end of the day.
Precisely, well said Tina
Best post on this subject Tina – you nailed it just as I'm sure you can nail notes too!!!
Ok, but for years they have always pre-recorded singers. What is the reason why they pre-record??? In case the performer need to lip sync the sing. Just because the other performers didnt lip sync it doesnt make her wrong for doing it.
Can Beyonce sing in the first place? I believe for American she can but not for me, am a music producer so i Know what am talking about here! This is not an issue for me its stale news.
Bog deal It was Beyonce's voice, just like it qas Whitney Houston's voice at the Super Bowl . These women ip-synced to their own voices. Now all haters please..time to go to bed!
beyonce is no Whitney Houston.
I am with you on this. Totally rediculous and they are still on it this morning and how it will harm her career. Argh!
Amen Anderson! I CANNOT believe the controversy on this. I guess most are upset because she "sold it" so well if she lip synced. Everyone wanted to believe it was the PERFECT LIVE performance? It sure looked like she was singing–even if she was singing along. As you said, it was her voice! She did the performance! Give her the Oscar! There are more IMPORTANT ISSUES in this country!
I'm with Anderson Cooper
It ain't the face that sings, it's the pipes.
A song don't look, it sounds.
Don't pay no heed to
Ignoramus rap.
[Ignoramus, a farce written for James I of England, satirizes a local figure who is represented in the play as the title character who romances false loves under false pretenses.]
Happens all the time, in a event that important who cares as long as it came out ok , why the big deal over it...
I am with you Anderson who cares it was her singing anyway...people look for to make trouble.....
Boo! Anderson, really! She's a Professional singer, who gets paid Millions of dollars. We expect a live performance to be just that. It was much colder outside when THE QUEEN serenaded us and we appreciated it. So, if it doesn't matter, then everyone else may as well have faked their performances also! Beyonce is a pretty face, and nothing more. What you're saying is that her talent is basically looking good. Nothing more, and nothing less.
No, she is not lip sync...
Hey Anderson if you can pass this message to her, Beyonce on behalf of her stans she has to address this we are sick and tired of defending her all the time while she pay the news dust is it becoz she has made millions and doesnt think its important to address this I am gutted
Could not agree with Anderson more. Her voice. She rehearsed that synch big time because she was SPOT ON! And finally, it was The Inauguration of The President Of The United States of America. It was not about Beyonce. Who cares about ANYTHING else but that it was a PERFECT celebration.
Let me start off by saying I like Beyonce but it's the President's inauguration. If she doesn't have the chops to do it live then decline and let someone who does do it. Kelly Clarkson had no trouble doing her song live at the same event. As a singer, I think it was a lame decision and I could care less what "world" Beyonce lives in.
Lip sync or not she did a terrible job of the national anthem. That is a song that should have been sung note for note the way it was written. Any other song, okay take license, but not with our national anthem.
Oh well. Hadn't really scrutinized her to that extent (not that it really matters for real, for real)...IT's HER VOCALS. Nothing at all like the Milli Vanilli fiasco– they lip sync'd to someone else's vocals.

For this episode of HackLibSchool TMI (Two Minute Insight) I had the pleasure of chatting with Dr. Ethan Watrall from Michigan State University. Dr. Watrall is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology and Associate Director of Matrix:The Center for Humane Arts, Letters & Social Sciences Online at Michigan State University. In addition, he is Coordinator of the Cultural Heritage Informatics Initiative and co-director of the Scholarly Creativity research cluster of the Michigan State University Creativity Initiative.
CLICK HERE –> More info about the fieldschool.
Dr. Watrall and I chatted for several minutes over the 2 minute limit, so what you'll hear here is a trimmed down version of our interview. [If you'd like to hear the whole interview email me].
The CHI Fieldschool is, in my opinion, one of the coolest new initiatives that students interested in cultural heritage can take advantage of to get hands on experience "building as a way of knowing," a popular mantra in Digital Humanities circles. If you or your classmates have any interest in cultural heritage, tech-based projects with humanities roots, or just want to be part of the inaugural class of a great new project, I highly encourage you to apply.

East - Purple Leather Boots
Try these instead:
Editor's Notes
Purple leather knee-high boots with block heel
The iconic must-have high knees, now crafted from bold and bright purple leather. These timeless tall boots feature a squared toe and a side zipper for extra comfort. Their elongated block heel adds flattery and pizzazz to your strut. Expand your footwear rotation with a glamorous pair of East and take on colder days in style.
We are going to select the best products for you based in the style you are looking for.
What does on-demand mean?
On-demand production means we don't produce any more or any less than what is ordered. This means that every time we launch a new collection, we wait for new orders to come in to begin producing. This is the most sustainable way of shopping because it creates 0% excess material. This is why we give you 30% off at launch - to encourage on-demand shopping. After two weeks, when the first batch of orders begins production, the discount drops to 15%.
How is on-demand sustainable?
On-demand is one of the most sustainable production methods out there because instead of mass production, we wait for orders to come in so we can produce exactly the amount that is asked for. This way we don't have any leftover stock or fabric - most brands burn this or take it to landfills, a massive threat to our ecosystem.
How long do I have to wait to receive my order?
You can check shipping times on every individual product page. Please bear in mind that since all items are made to order and produced from scratch to avoid waste and overproduction, different sizes will be in different stages of production and therefore have different shipping times. So make sure to click on the size you want to see how long it will take to arrive.
How do I know what size to buy?
Our shoes fit true to size. We have a size chart in every product page where you can consult measurements as well. However, if you're still unsure, there's tons of reviews on our page where you can see images and feedback from fellow customers.
How do I know if a product is on-demand or just on sale?
At ALOHAS, we don't believe in sales. In fact, we've fully reversed the traditional sales calendar. When you see an item at a discount of 30% or 15%, it means it was launched recently. In order to incentivize on-demand shopping, we give you this discountatlaunch, notafter.
Why are some sizes in stock and some in pre-order?
Whenever we launch a new product, all sizes are inpre-order. However, because not everyone is 100% satisfied with their product, an item might get returned eventually. When this happens, it becomes in-stock because it has already been produced. This is why some sizes appear in stock - so make sure to always check the size you're looking for, not the whole product.
How long is each on-demand phase?
After a collection is launched, it takes us approximately two weeks to determine accurate demand levels for each item. Once this time finishes, we begin producing, and the discount drops to 15%. This would be the second batch of orders, which takes about five weeks to produce. After these are sent out, the items are now in-stock and at full price.
How do you ensure prime labor conditions?
We're lucky to have a very close relationship with our manufacturers and factory workers. We have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to discrimination and are always making sure the best standards are met. Our team visits our factories periodically to ensure that everything is running smoothly, prime labor conditions are met and strict quality and labor condition standards are in place.
Customer Reviews
Gorgeous bright lavender boots. I'm usually a UK 9/US 11 and was worried these wouldn't fit but fit wonderfully. Very soft leather and the inside feels very cushioned so these are easy to walk in.
Amaaazing! Been crazy about them since i got them a week ago<3
The color is a bit darker in rl
Pretty narrow!! Beautiful but the leather is darker in person than in the picture. The purple almost looks navy.
Managed to find the last pair at Yoox and I absolutely love it!
This is my second pair of Alohas and I'm here to stay!
These boots exceeded all expectations. Gorgeous color, design and comfortable. Worth the investment + investing in a company that cares about sustainable fashion!

County's Healthy Horse Clinic taking place April 20
An event is coming up in two weeks that will make it easy for horse owners to get their equines healthy and in top shape for the 2013 season.
Cheboygan County Equine Youth & Family, Inc. is hosting its annual Healthy Horse Clinic at Tromble Bay Equestrian Center/LeeGrande Ranch on M-33 on Saturday, April 20 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The event is open to the public and there is no need to make an appointment; those attending can just show up that day with their horse.
"The community is invited to come get all of their horses' spring health needs done all at one place and save money doing it," said Cheboygan County Equine Youth & Family President Beth Riker. "No appointment needed, just pull in!"
During the clinic, veterinarians Sarah Michelin and Joy Rodabaugh will be on hand, along with chiropractor Bonnie Searles, dentist Steven Shaver and Tracy Mohnke of Tribute Equine Nutrition. Both digital Coggins testing and traditional Coggins testing will be offered, as well as vaccinations, dental services and teeth floating, and Tribute Equine Nutrition will perform free body scoring and discuss nutrition and design custom diets for horses.
Riker said the event will be an opportunity for horse owners to save some cash.
"Cheboygan Equine Equine Youth & Family, Inc. realizes that with the economy where it is, it more important than ever to do what you can to save money," Riker said. "By putting all of these services in one location, it gives us the opportunity to do that."
Riker said her group is pleased to be part of offering the new digital Coggins testing, which gives faster test results online, and for the equine dental opportunities.
"We all know how extremely important it is to take care of your horse's teeth," Riker said. "A healthy mouth can mean the difference between a healthy horse and a very unhappy, unhealthy, thin horse. It can also effect how your horse rides and reacts to the bit."
For more information and pricing, check visit the group's website at www.cceyf.org or contact Riker at 231-818-2078 or by e-mail to email@example.com. Cheboygan County Equine Youth & Family, Inc. is an educational organization focused on families learning and spending time together. The new group is made up of youth, their families and individuals of any age looking to share their love of horses, and new members are always being sought. The group hosts and participates in a variety of events throughout the year, including a riding clinic on Saturday, June 1, an extreme obtacle challenge on Saturday, June 29 and an open horse show on Saturday, July 13.

Harry Potter Actor Richard Griffiths Dies at 65
Richard Griffiths, who played Uncle Vernon in the Harry Potter franchise, has died, The Associated Press reports. He was 65.
On Friday, agent Simon Beresford announced that Griffiths had passed away the previous day after undergoing heart surgery in central England. Bakers honored Griffiths, calling him "a remarkable man and one of our greatest and best-loved actors."
Remember other celebrities we've lost this year
"I was proud to say I knew him," Daniel Radcliffe, who played Harry Potter in the popular franchise, said in a statement. Radcliffe also worked alongside Griffiths in a 2007 London production of Equus.
"Richard was by my side during two of the most important moments of my career," Radcliffe added. "In August 2000, before official production had even begun on Potter, we filmed a shot outside the Dursleys', which was my first ever shot as Harry. I was nervous and he made me feel at ease.
"Seven years later, we embarked on Equus together. It was my first time doing a play but, terrified as I was, his encouragement, tutelage and humor made it a joy. In fact, any room he walked into was made twice as funny and twice as clever just by his presence."
In addition to Harry Potter, Griffiths is most famous for playing Uncle Monty in the 1987 cult classic Withnail and I. His last major role was opposite Danny DeVito in a West End production of The Sunshine Boys last year.
Griffiths is survived by his wife, Heather Gibson.

Los Angeles authorities are investigating Justin Bieber after a neighbor says the pop star egged his home and that he videotaped the incident.
LOS ANGELES — Sheriff's deputies are investigating Justin Bieber for yet another dispute with a neighbor that could land him in court.
Los Angeles County Sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore says Bieber has been named as a suspect in a misdemeanor vandalism and assault crime report for allegedly throwing eggs at a neighbor's home in their gated Calabasas neighborhood Thursday evening.
The 19-year-old pop star allegedly egged the house while his neighbor and neighbor's daughter were on the balcony. They videotaped the incident, Whitmore says.
Whitmore says Bieber won't speak to deputies. Depending on the damage estimate, a charge could rise to a felony.
In October, prosecutors declined to charge Bieber after a neighbor complained he drove recklessly through the area.
Messages left for Bieber's representative, Melissa Victor, weren't immediately returned Sunday morning.

This past Tuesday, Kosher Revolution author Geila Hocherman and I attended the Kosher Wine Society's Pre-Chanukah Wine Tasting Extravaganza. They featured eight Cabernet Sauvignon selections:
- Psagot Cabernet Sauvignon '09
- Barkan Cabernet Sauvignon '07
- Weinstock Cellars Select Cabernet Sauvignon '09
- Teperberg Israeli Cabernet Sauvignon '10
- Dalton Estate Cabernet Sauvignon '10
- Hagafen Cabernet Sauvignon '08
- Golan Cabernet Sauvignon '09
- Gilgal Cabernet Sauvignon '07
In addition, other selections included:
- Binyamina Reserve Sauvignon Blanc '09
- Lanzur Reserva Pinot Noir '10
- Chateau Bellerives Dubois Bordeaux '10
- Le Mourre De L'Isle Cotes du Rhone '10
- Teperberg Malbec '09
- Gush Etzion Cabernet Franc '07
- Gush Etzion Emek Bracha Dry Red Wine '06
- Gush Etzion Nachal Hapirim, Dry Red Wine '07
- Gush Etzion Cabernet Sauvignon – Merlot '06
In addition there were also:
- L'ChaimVodka
- Binyamina Chocolate Liqueur
Crackers, cheese, grapes and more helped neutralize the taste buds before sampling a different wine.
We started with the Psagot Cabernet Sauvignon '09, for both of us this one turned out to be best of the bunch, we loved it. Dark garnet in color with silky tannins, showing oak on the nose and opening to aromas and flavors of black and red currants and citrus-peel, followed by vanilla and a lingering smokiness. Though very good, I still prefer the '08 vintage which I've tasted before.
We followed with the Teperberg Terra Malbec '09, dark – in typical Malbec fashion – and full bodied. Soft tannins finely balanced with spicy wood and fruits. On the palate one discerned plums, black cherries and wild berries balanced with notes of cinnamon, ending with a long finish of espresso coffee. While we both liked it, Geila preferred the Psagot, I found this Teperberg better.
In totally opposition to the norm we then tasted a white wine, Binyamina Reserve Sauvignon Blanc '09. Pale straw in color, it opens with notes of grapefruit and lime, giving way to stony minerals with hints of asparagus. Nicely aromatic.
We went back to red wine with a Dalton Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2010, dark colored and well balanced with notes of currants, berries and mint well complimented with the subtle vanilla flavors of French oak.
We also liked the Gush Etzion Cabernet Franc 2007. Dark garnet, medium bodied with lots of soft tannins and notes of vanilla from the French oak casks where it aged for 18 months. On the palate it showed a rich array of blackberries, currant, black cherries giving way to Mediterranean herbs and saddle leather.
We capped the evening's selection of potables with a L'Chaim Vodka. Very smooth and tasty!
Rabbi Mikhael Cohen of the French Jewish Cultural Center of New York (67 Wall Street; Phone: 212.202.1448 – Cell: 917.796.0680), spoke of Chanuka and its significance today.
During the tasting we are accompanied by the musical sounds of Yiddish and Israeli classics. All and all an enjoyable evening of good wines and great conversation.
