As multidetector CT technology has evolved, so has our approach to contrast administration. This article will discuss the relationship between technology and contrast delivery, and explore its implications for pre-intervention planning.
The evolution in CT technology from 4- to 8- to 16-detector channels has led to an increase in beam width (Figure 1). When going from a 4-channel scanner (GE Light Speed Plus, GE Medical Systems, Waukesha, WI) to an 8-channel scanner (GE Light Speed Ultra), increasing the beam width from 5 to 10 mm doubles the speed of scanning, assuming detector collimation, rotation speed, and pitch remain constant. When going from an 8-channel (GE Light Speed Ultra) to a 16-channel scanner (GE Electric Light Speed 16), retention of the same 10-mm beam width, coupled with a change in detector configuration from 8 * 1.25 mm to 16 * 0.625 mm, results in a doubling of z-axis resolution for the same scan speed. (Compared with a 4-channel scanner, the same 16-channel configuration doubles both z-axis resolution and scan speed.) Alternatively, maintaining detector collimation constant at 1.25 mm increases the beam width of the 16-channel scanner to 20 mm. In this case, scan speed is twice as fast with a16-channel scanner as with an 8-channel scanner, and 4 times as fast as with a 4-channel scanner.
The general principles governing our approach to multidetector CT angiography (CTA) are as follows:
* We aim for an arterial enhancement of 250 to 300 HU. One important consideration is the need to distinguish arterial enhancement from calcification in the vessel wall, which is achieved by increasing the window width to 750 and the window level to 150 on the axial images, with appropriate presets on the maximum-intensity projection displays.
* In determining cephalocaudad coverage, we take into account both the need to acquire images during the first circulation of contrast and the patient's ability to sustain a breath-hold. We generally consider 20 seconds a reasonable breath-hold interval.
* To time image acquisition, we inject a mini-bolus of contrast and observe aortic arrival time. We do not use bolus-tracking software, as our technology does not allow a sufficiently rapid transition from the detection of threshold contrast enhancement to the initiation of scanning.
Aortoiliac CTA
Aortoiliac CTA covers the territory from just above the celiac axis to the proximal thigh, approximately 30 cm. Figure 2 illustrates the timing of contrast administration and image acquisition using a 4-channel scanner. With a detector collimation of 1.25 mm, a pitch of 1.5, and a table speed of 15 mm/sec, the image acquisition interval is 20 seconds. Contrast material is injected at 5 mL/sec for 20 seconds, for a total of 100 mL (orange bar). In this schematic, image acquisition begins at 15 seconds (yellow bar), as determined by a preliminary mini-bolus, and the acquisition interval is equal in length to the injection interval. The injection-to-scan delay will vary from 12 to 30 seconds, depending on the individual patient's circulation time.
With an 8-channel scanner, z-axis resolution and scan rotation speed remain the same as with a 4-channel scanner (Figure 3). Beam width is doubled, however. If at the same time the pitch is reduced to 1.35, the acquisition interval is reduced to 12 seconds for the same cephalocaudad coverage. Contrast material is injected at 5 mL/sec for 12 seconds, for a total of 60 mL. Once again, the linkage between injection and acquisition is determined by the mini-bolus technique.
Figure 4 shows curved planar reformations of the same patient studied with a 4-channel and an 8-channel CT scanner on separate occasions using the same z-axis resolution. Attenuation of the aorta and iliac system throughout the cephalocaudad coverage is equivalent, despite contrast volume having been reduced by nearly half.
With a 16-channel scanner, the best approach to aortoiliac studies is to maintain the same beam width as with an 8-channel scanner and decrease detector collimation to 0.625 mm (Figure 5). If the pitch remains 1.35, the acquisition interval remains 12 seconds, and cephalocaudad coverage is unchanged. The z-axis resolution is doubled, however. Contrast is injected at 5 mL/sec for a total of 60 mL.
Figure 6 shows a patient with an aortoiliac stent graft. Images were acquired on an 8-channel scanner using a slice width of 1.25 mm, and a 16-channel scanner using a slice width of 0.625 mm. The effect of improved z-axis resolution is clearly evident in the superior edge definition of the right renal artery.
Stent-graft planning
Important issues in planning for stent-graft surgery include the ease of iliac access, the transverse dimensions of the superior neck of the aneurysm, the length of the superior neck (the proximal stent-graft placement zone), the angle of the neck in relation to the aneurysm, and the diameter and length of the distal landing zone in the common iliac arteries.
CT angiography can noninvasively obtain both the length measurements, which would otherwise be obtained by digital subtraction angiography with a calibrated catheter, and the diameter measurements, which would otherwise be obtained by intravascular ultrasound. Using center-line tracking, seed points, and automated edge detection, CT models the aorta and iliac arteries in three dimensions. It provides estimates of the true vessel length and the diameter, which is measured perpendicular to the vessel rather than to the body.
CT also plays a key role in postsurgical follow-up and the evaluation of stent-graft complications. Potential complications include endoleak (Figure 7), which might result in aneurysm expansion; graft thrombosis; stent graft migration or kinking; and branch vessel occlusion.
Renal studies
CT angiography is widely accepted for the evaluation of potential renal donors. With a 0.625-mm detector collimation, the 16-channel scanner provides detailed information on accessory vessels, points of branching, and renal artery stenosis (Figure 8). With a second-pass image acquisition, it can also detect renal vein anomalies.
In patients with marginal renal function, the 16-channel can be used as a super 8-scanner by increasing detector collimation to 1.25 mm and thereby doubling scan speed. Under such circumstances, the acquisition interval is reduced to 6 seconds, and contrast material is injected at 5 to 6 mL/sec for 6 seconds, for a total contrast volume of just 30 to 36 mL. One might wonder whether it is possible to accurately time image acquisition to coincide with the passage of the contrast bolus, but with the aid of the preliminary mini-bolus, we have been successful in doing so.
Figure 9 shows an extension of an aortoiliac study into the upper thigh of a patient with bilateral renal artery implants, bilateral internal ureteral stents, a femoral-femoral artery crossover graft, and serum creatinine level of 1.5 to 2 mg/dL. This study was done with 40 mL of contrast material.
Table 1 summarizes the comparison of 4-, 8-, and 16-channel scanners for aortoiliac CTA.
Thoracoabdominal aortic CTA
There are two approaches to imaging the thoracoabdominal aorta with the 16-channel scanner. Detector collimation can be set at 1.25 mm for a full 20-mm beam width. In this case, the acquisition interval for the thoracoabdominal aorta is equivalent to that for an aortoiliac study, despite a cephalocaudad coverage of 60 cm. Contrast volume is approximately 60 mL. The alternative approach is to use a detector collimation of 0.625 mm. In this case, both the acquisition interval and the contrast load will double.
The choice between the two ap-proaches is guided by the patient's cardiovascular status and renal function, as well as the indication for the study. For pre-operative planning in a patient with a suspected thoracoabdominal aneurysm, it is essential to obtain detailed information on small vessels that parallel the slice plane. Therefore, it would be appropriate to select a detector collimation of 0.625 mm and a contrast volume of 120 mL. In the case of aortic dissection, where small-vessel detail is less important, a detector collimation of 1.25 mm is sufficient, and contrast volume can be reduced to 60 mL.
Patients are usually referred for CTA of the extremities in preparation for vascular or plastic surgery, or for evaluation of orthopedic problems. Multidetector CT is both suited for and challenged by the demands of imaging the extremities.
The distance from the renal vascular pedicle to the feet is approximately 120 cm. To cover this distance with a 4-channel scanner, it is necessary to use a 2.5-mm detector collimation, a pitch of 1.5, and a table speed of 3 cm/sec, resulting in a 40-second acquisition interval. Contrast material is injected at 4 mL/sec for 40 seconds, and a mini-bolus of contrast material determines the timing of image acquisition.
Lower-extremity angiography becomes more complex in patients with very slow runoff, particularly below the knee. Under such circumstances, we delay initiation of image acquisition beyond the aortic arrival time as determined from the contrast mini-bolus, in order to avoid scanning faster than the contrast circulation.
With an 8-channel scanner, we reduce detector collimation to 1.25 mm. With no changes in the other scan settings, the image acquisition interval remains about the same, 44 seconds. With a 16-channel scanner, we generally maintain detector collimation at 1.25 mm, which reduces the acquisition interval from 44 to 22 seconds. We inject contrast material at 5 mL/sec, for a total contrast volume of 110 to 120 mL. This volume of contrast material is acceptable in patients with marginal renal function or substantial cardiovascular disease.
Table 2 summarizes differences in the scan protocols for CTA of the extremities using 4-, 8-, and 16-channel scanners.
A key issue in lower-extremity CTA is the need to determine the degree of stenosis in areas with significant calcified plaque. This problem necessitates the use of curved planar reformations and automated measurement techniques, to determine the diameter and area at the sites of stenosis (Figure 10).
Image processing remains a key issue, particularly in extremity CTA. It is important, for example, to be able to do bone segmentation at the workstation effectively and quickly. Vessel tracking, particularly below the knee, and automated stenosis sizing are also critical in making CTA of the extremities a robust and acceptable technique that will replace other forms of angiography.
Intravenous CTA of the thoracoabdominal aorta and abdominal visceral vessels is a robust technique that provides all the requisite diagnostic information for pretherapy planning and postintervention follow-up. Improved performances associated with the progression from 4- to 8- to 16-channel scanners is, in each instance, associated with either faster acquisition, improved resolution, or reduced contrast load. Intravenous CTA of the extremities can be used for preoperative evaluation of iliac, femoral, and popliteal arterial disease. Display of isolated tibio peroneal arterial disease can be more problematic.
Figure Captions
FIGURE 1. Matrix detector technology evolution. The beam width of an 8-channel CT scanner, at 10 mm, is twice as large as that of a 4-channel CT scanner. Detector collimation, at 1.25 mm, remains unchanged, resulting in a doubling of scan speed. With a 16-channel scanner, the beam width can remain 10 mm while detector collimation can be reduced to 0.625 mm, doubling z-axis resolution. Alternatively, beam width can be increased to 20 mm while detector collimation remains 1.25 mm, doubling scan speed in comparison to an 8-channel scanner, or quadrupling it in comparison to a 4-channel scanner.
FIGURE 2. Timing of contrast administration and image acquisition during aortoiliac CTA using a 4-channel scanner. Detector collimation is 1.25 mm, pitch (Z) is 1.5, and table speed 15 mm/sec (7.5 mm per scan rotation/0.5 sec per rotation). The image acquisition interval is 20 seconds. Contrast material is injected at 5 mL/sec for 20 sec, for a total of 100 mL (orange bar). Image acquisition begins 15 seconds after the beginning of contrast injection (yellow bar), as determined by a preliminary mini-bolus for this hypothetical patient. (Note: The injection-to-scan delay will vary from 12 to 30 seconds, depending on individual patient ' s circulation time.) The acquisition interval is equal to the injection interval.
FIGURE 3. Timing of contrast administration and image acquisition during aortoiliac CTA using an 8-channel scanner. Scan rotation speed and z-axis resolution are the same as with a 4-channel scanner. Beam width is doubled, however. If pitch (Z) is reduced to 1.35, the acquisition interval is reduced to 12 seconds. Contrast material is injected at 5 mL/sec for 12 sec, for a total contrast volume of 60 mL.

(B and C) Curved planar reformations show the internal lumens of the right and left iliac, femoral, and popliteal arteries without obscuration by the heavy arterial wall calcification. The left superficial femoral artery is occluded and distal runoff is via the left profunda femoris artery with collateral reconstitution of the left popliteal artery.
ELLIOT K. FISHMAN, MD: Thank you, Dennis. Any questions?
KYONGTAE T. BAE, MD, PhD: You said you like to have desired arterial enhancement of 250 to 300 HU. But then with some of the reduced contrast volume, you are not going to achieve that, right?
FOLEY: That's a good question. The issue relates to the fact that we are not really dealing with recirculation and humping up the aortic profile. So if you have a very short acquisition of 6 seconds, you don't get the recirculation effect. I haven't gone systematically to look at those patients, but they probably don't have as much aortic attenuation as we have been talking about.
BAE: Just from looking at the image, it looks like enhancement is not at the level of 250 HU.
FOLEY: Yes, but the compensation for that is--instead of injecting at 5 mL/sec--inject at 6, and maybe inject at 7 mL/sec. One thing I didn't indicate on that schematic is that, actually, when we go to a 6-second acquisition we increase the in-jection rate to 6 mL/sec instead of 5.
SANJAY SAINI, MD: Also, when you have a longer coverage, why not go to a 1.75 pitch? You stayed at 1.35.
FOLEY: That's a good point. With regard to the vessel detail, if you're looking at a vessel that's perpendicular to the slice plane, it probably would not actually diminish anything at all, that would be an advantage.
FISHMAN: In terms of CTA, outside of the heart, the most challenging is definitely the lower extremity in terms of timing. You said that if you were using the automated bolus tracking, you measured the lower abdominal aorta. What values do you use for that?
FOLEY: Actually, we are still using the mini-bolus technique. So we don't use the thresholding. I'd be interested in other people's opinions.
FISHMAN: But even with the mini-bolus, there is the issue. Trauma patients with glove/ring injuries are easy to image. When you evaluate a 60-year-old for atherosclerotic disease, what's good for the left is not good for the right. What do you do in those situations?
FOLEY: We haven't had a sufficient experience to determine that.When you have iliac occlusive disease or femoral occlusive disease, generally the collateral circulation that you fill out with an intravenous injection overcomes the problem that you have if you do selective arterial injections with digital subtraction angiography. But you're right, below the thigh and below the knee, it's going to be an issue. You just hope that you have such a long bolus, and you've got some latitude between a long bolus and a long acquisition interval, that you're not going to run into a problem.
I've heard other people present material on CTA of the lower extremities who have not really indicated there's a major problem with different flow rates between the two sides.
FISHMAN: But, you did a lot of angiography, and you know from that there's a significant problem. We do sort of a crude thing: I just watch the images in all those CTAs. If I see that the left looks good and the right doesn't, I just wait 20 more seconds, and scan again. I think it's impossible for patients to be perfect on both.
CHRISTOPH R. BECKER, MD: What would be a good idea, I've heard, is to test bolus in the femoral artery, to see when the arrival is there, and to then concentrate on the diseased leg.
FOLEY: Yes, that's a good point.

Traditional / Classic 4 Light 31" Wide Bathroom Fixture from the Bath Collection
simple but elegant
i purchased this fixture just the i saw it in the pix with the same glass- crackle finish- it was easy to put up - just have to get the screw right to turn the finishing nut tight so it is tight on the wall but really no problem. it looks great and is nice with simple clean lines. i also received 2 broken shades which were replaced IMMEDIATELY. no sooner did i call - 3 days later i received my new glass and they were up in a flash. great customer service and i will buy again. we plan to build int he near future and i will most likely purchase all my fixtures from Lighting direct! thank you so much for your great service and products!
May 27, 2009
The light bar I received was exactly what I was looking for. I installed it easily and it looks very nice with the other fixtures in the bathroom. My only criticism was that it was a bit difficult to adjust the rods so that they were exactly parallel. I got it done, though.

The official Sebastian Junger community
I appreciate your point of view and it was one I shared many years ago. However, as I've educated myself more on the various aspects of the military (the training, the psychology, the sociology, the conflicts), I've felt my perspective shift to embrace a broader perspective. Given that expanded awareness, I feel compelled to speak to your points.
When I was a kid I used to wonder why we didn't just put the two (or more) arguing world leaders in a boxing ring and let them duke it out, rather than using largely politically uninvolved second parties to carry out their battle of egos. I still think that's a good idea. Settling differences with words would be the best-case scenario, and I don't believe there's anyone who doesn't agree with that. One day, perhaps, we'll have evolved enough to be able to consistently rely on verbal mediation. That day is not today, unfortunately.
Sebastian is perfectly capable of expressing his own views on this and doesn't require defending; however, I must say that he certainly wasn't responsible for labeling Afghanistan a war. Additionally, physicality in its extremes is, in and of itself, testosterone-fueled ("macho", sure), adrenaline-fueled, a chemical shake coded into our bodies for the purposes of survival. Soldiers aren't coerced into aggression. They volunteer to receive training on how to best protect our country, its allies, and other unprovoked nations and peoples and keep foreign and domestic enemies from murdering, beheading, bombing, assassinating, infiltrating, propagandizing, enslaving, torturing, and creating an atmosphere of terror. And you better believe training for those situations requires aggressiveness.
Many people in the world today are without direction or hope that their personal situations will improve. They don't all join military factions. Hopelessness is not a prerequisite for military service. On the contrary, it is the hope for a better life that seems to compel young men and women to seek out the structure and discipline this training provides; and most will tell you that their personal situations, morals, and self-confidence were all improved due to their involvement with the military, regardless of whether or not they become career soldiers or officers. And yes, war requires training. And yes, war preparedness requires brute force, tactical knowledge, and – believe it or not – utterly civilized diplomacy. In war zones, many individual military units meet with locals and elders on a regular basis to attempt to forge trusting, positive relationships. Schools are built, infrastructure is developed from nothing, or enhanced. Girls are allowed to be educated. Mines and bombs are diffused for the safety of all. Patrols protect and serve, while playing with Afghani children and dispensing candy and toys.
I wince at your question about whether or not Sebastian will be comforted by "cheers" for his speaking engagement. I sincerely hope that he and Tim do feel proud of their accomplishments in documenting the lives of these men. I would also humbly suggest, on their behalf, that the only true cheer they have taken from this experience are the deep friendships they have made and the hope that the description of war they share will give people insights they did not previously possess. From that point forward, the degree of rumination, of impact, of respect or loathing is up to the individual.
Your requests for financial compensation as a taxpayer are being laid at the feet of the wrong person. Your state and federal representatives are responsible for allocating taxpayer dollars to support foreign conflicts; and, to be perfectly honest, you may not know it but you probably voted for a few of them. The assertion that journalism that you find personally offensive does not deserve monetary compensation is ridiculous. It is a job, and, in fact, a noble one.
I would like to ask you – respectfully, but pointedly - if you have read the book you're criticizing, because I do find it difficult to believe that you have. No glamorization of anything exists within its pages, believe me. I can't imagine any experience further from the concept.
I guess I've said my peace, pun intended.
Hi Clare,
I'm glad you posted! Quite unfortunately, Lindsey, who wrote the initial response, deleted her post and may have even left the forum, as I can't find her name among the members now.
Well, as you can see I tried to be as fair to Eric as I could be. I feel guilty, to tell the truth, for listening as long as I did. I don't want to continue being civil too long to someone who evidently has a hurtful agenda here; I have been concerned about it being interpreted as any sort of approval or endorsement of his views.
Offering an alternate viewpoint makes things interesting, and it helps us hone and clarify our own opinions. I'm not threatened by opposing ideas because I know my own mind. However, honest debate for the purposes of mutual education and enlightenment is obviously not what's going on here - on Memorial Day Weekend of all times - and I believe this now qualifies as trolling.
I share your kind impressions of Sebastian. He does show himself to be an incredibly earnest and gracious person, which is another reason I found Eric's unfounded attempts at character assassination on Sebastian's own site so troubling and insulting.
Thanks again, Clare,

Hyperdimension Neptunia Re; Birth 2 gets typically ridiculous trailer
Hyperdimension Neptunia is ridiculous. The whole series is ridiculous. The Vita remake of the second game, Re; Birth 2, is ridiculous. This trailer for it is ridiculous. It's kind of ridiculous that it will probably come west. Developer Compile Hearts is, I strongly suspect, ridiculous. Come through the break, shake your head, and leave a ridiculous comment.

Fairy Fencer F opening cinematic taunts western fans
Here's the opening cinematic for Fairy Fencer F, the first game from Compile Hearts' Galapagos RPG label, which makes games specifically for the Japanese market. The PlayStation 3 exclusive launches in Japan in November and at this stage looks unlikely to be localised in English, even though the involvement of Nobuo Uematsu and Yoshitaka Amano has JRPG fans drooling for it. So, you know – suck it up and learn kanji.

Holy Sorcery Story coming west thanks to Aksys
Aksys is bringing Compile Heart's Vita RPG Holy Sorcery Story to North America, the publisher announced at Anime Expo this weekend. The game is known in Japan as Sei Madou Monogatari, and according to Siliconera will be called Sorcery Saga: Curse of the Great Curry God in the west; curry-making is indeed involved. What a wasted opportunity for a pun on "sauce". Holy Sorcey Saga is one of two games Hyperdimension Neptunia developer Compile Hearts hoped to see licensed for localisation. No word on Monster Monpiece.

Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory to add Tekken-chan – report
Game industry parody RPG Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory will feature a Namco Bandai tribute. Siliconera reports Compile Hearts has been able to secure Tekken-chan, a new character representing the eponymous fighter series. It's not clear how the character will fit in with the existing cast, but she's expected to be presented as DLC, like CyberConnect 2 and Marvellous AQL's characters. The PlayStation 3 exclusive launches in the west this month.

Update: The big wildfire in northwest Wisconsin is contained. However, it has scorched 9,000 acres and destroyed dozens of homes and buildings.
Wildfire season is already underway in Wisconsin's north woods, as fires rage and the region is under a Red Flag fire warning. But fire danger is only one of several key issues attracting the attention of the US Forest Service's new regional forester.
Actress Angelina Jolie announced yesterday that she's had a preventive double mastectomy after learning that she carries a genetic mutation that puts her at high risk for developing breast cancer.That announcement has, for many, rekindled a dilemma about how much information we want to know about our genome, and what do with that information once it's in hand.
Does it seem a lot of people around you have suddenly come down with a sore throat or cough? The likely culprit is trees – tree pollen, to be specific.
A windstorm that blew through the area last night dropped tree limbs and caused power outages for up to 18,000 customers in Milwaukee, Waukesha and Dodge counties.

By Ted Voorhees
I'd like to invite residents to participate in the process of hiring our city's next police chief. On Tuesday, citizens will have the opportunity to meet the two finalists and ask questions from noon to 1 p.m. at the Kiwanis Recreation Center and from 5 to 6 p.m. at Westover Recreation Center.
Increasing the level of citizen engagement is essential to a healthy community. Helping the City Council attain that objective will be a hallmark of my administration, so please take advantage of these opportunities to get involved and help build Fayetteville's future.
The finalists are police executives from two of the nation's premier municipal police agencies, and they are well-qualified to be Fayetteville's next police chief.
A field of 131 applicants was narrowed down to six very well qualified individuals. The applicants participated in assessment-center exercises designed to test their knowledge, skills and abilities, as well as to evaluate their emotional intelligence and behaviors in group and individual settings. During a two-day process, candidates were rated by teams of city management and law enforcement professionals from across North Carolina, as well as local community advocates.
The assessment process was designed by Developmental Associates, LLC, which has been helping cities select police chiefs for about 25 years. Clients include Asheville, Asheboro, Wilson, Reidsville, Chapel Hill, Clinton and Burlington, as well as N.C. State University, UNC-Asheville and UNC-Charlotte. The specific exercises were created after meeting with key stakeholder groups, police officers, staff, community groups and myself. The process was designed to ensure that successful candidates will be prepared to face the key challenges of the position, and possess the competencies needed to be an effective chief.
The assessment center exercises were organized to give all candidates a level playing field so that each had a fair chance of advancing in the selection process. A written exercise focused on the Fayetteville Police Department, issues related to racial profiling, media relations, frustration among officers regarding community perceptions, and how to move the department forward. A role-play exercise targeted how candidates manage the performance of those they supervise. A community meeting scenario invited candidates to demonstrate consensus-building skills by working with residents to come up with a plan for improvement. Additionally, a presentation exercise examined command presence, thoughtfulness and agility, as candidates were quizzed by three people acting as city manager, assistant city manager and chief information officer. All results were shared with me and reviewed with the project consultants.
After much planning and a rigorous process to narrow the field down to two finalists, I am confident that we are on the cusp of making a thoroughly informed selection. I'd now like to give both finalists a chance to demonstrate their fitness for duty by spending time with people they will be called to serve, so don't miss out on this opportunity to play a role in this important decision.
I look forward to making this decision after seeing the public interaction next week, and invite you to participate. I hope to see you Tuesday.

Denny's, a national restaurant chain, agreed today to pay more than $54 million to settle lawsuits filed by thousands of black customers who had been refused service or had been forced to wait longer or pay more than white customers.
The new head of the civil rights division of the Justice Department, Deval L. Patrick, said it was the largest and broadest settlement under the Federal public-accommodation laws. Those laws were adopted more than 30 years ago to end segregation in restaurants and other places that serve the public.
The agreement, worked out among Government lawyers and lawyers representing Denny's and its customers, ended Federal class-action lawsuits in Baltimore and in San Jose, Calif., and a complaint in Virginia. Those actions were filed on behalf of thousands of black customers who had asserted that Denny's violated their civil rights by treating them rudely and by routinely giving preferential treatment to whites.
In one instance, a black Federal judge from Houston and his wife who had been traveling for 18 hours said they were forced to wait at a Denny's in Yreka, Calif., for almost an hour as white teen-agers taunted them and referred to them as "niggers."

Quick Solution For Sinus Sufferers
Finally there is a quick solution for sinus sufferers that can dramatically reduce chronic sinus infections, balloon sinus dilation, a revolutionary sinus treatment that is performed in a physician's office.
This simple solution for debilitating sinus symptoms is becoming a much sought after procedure.
Balloon sinus dilation is effective for treating patients diagnosed with recurrent or persistent sinusitis. Performed under local anesthesia, balloon sinus dilation is a quick procedure that opens blocked sinus pathways by inserting and inflating a small balloon, restoring drainage and offering instant life-changing relief that lasts.
Worldwide more than a hundred million people suffer from chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in various forms. Some have relentless, continuous, debilitating sinus symptoms and others have repetitive acute sinus infections with intervals of apparent normalcy.
For most of history, the medical profession had little success in controlling chronic or recurrent sinus infections. In the early 20th Century many operations were devised to try to help, but most were terribly painful and risky, required prolonged recovery and had a poor track record of success.
In the late 1980's, however, a dramatic breakthrough occurred in the surgical treatment of sinus disease – Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS). No longer were risky, painful operations on the sinuses the only option. Using the tiny endoscopes initially developed for joint surgery, ENT surgeons could finally provide reliable relief to chronic sinus sufferers with a safer, less-painful and less-invasive surgical procedure in an outpatient surgical setting. Postoperative discomfort and complications were dramatically lessened and the recovery period shortened. Instead of days of hospitalization, followed by days or weeks of painful recuperation at home, sinus surgery now became almost exclusively outpatient and recovery began to be measured in days instead of weeks. FESS continues to be the "gold standard" for advanced disease of the sinuses only responsive to surgery.
Balloon Sinus Dilation (Balloon Sinuplasty)
Recently, however, a revolutionary treatment option (balloon sinus dilation) has been developed for the majority of sinus sufferers whose conditions are not so severe that extensive sinus surgery is the only effective option.
Minimally invasive sinus catheter devices have been developed, tested and proven safe and successful for in-office treatment of sinus disease not responsive to medical management.
Using local anesthesia only, balloon dilation of the sinuses can now be comfortably performed in the office, frequently avoiding the need for more invasive surgical treatment.

Donna Murphy Movies
One of Broadway's most celebrated actresses, Donna Murphy is a commanding, versatile performer whose credits also encompass film and television. A native of New York, Murphy was born in Queens on March 3, 1958, and grew up on Long Island as the oldest of seven children. She attended New York University briefly, dropping out at the age of 20 to try her luck on the New York stage.
Work on and off Broadway followed, until in 1993 Murphy landed the greatest role of her career thus far. Picked by Stephen Sondheim to star in his musical Passion as Fosca, a bitter, consumptive woman caught up in unrequited longing for a handsome soldier, she earned stellar reviews and, ultimately, the 1994 Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical. Now one of Broadway's most in-demand actresses, she went on to win yet another Tony in the same category, this one for her performance in the 1995 revival of The King and I.
In addition to her work on the stage, Murphy has also made a number of appearances on screens big and small, doing supporting work in such films as Star Trek: Insurrection (1998) and
Nicholas Hytner
's Center Stage (2000), the latter of which cast her as a demanding but ultimately warmhearted ballet teacher. The actress has also lent her talents to a host of TV shows, including Law & Order and The Practice.

Fate brings together two mismatched travelers in this comedy. Sherman (Michael Shulman) is a tightly wound, career-obsessed college student whose mother, Evelyn (Donna Murphy), is a successful politician who micromanages her own life as well as that of her son. Planning to spend a few weeks in Northern California with his girlfriend, Marcy (Lacey Chabert), Sherman instead discovers that she's dumped him for another, more fun-loving guy; adding insult to injury, Sherman's wallet and credit cards have been stolen and Evelyn decides it's time to cut off his allowance. With few options and eager to prove he can be free-spirited and self-reliant, Sherman decides to hitchhike to Los Angeles for an internship interview, and takes a ride with the first person willing to take him down the coast. Sherman's ride turns out to be Palmer (James LeGros), a former Olympic skiing champion-turned-footloose middle-aged bohemian who is more interested in keeping his vintage convertible in tune than in getting anywhere at any specific time. While Sherman and Palmer have next to nothing in common, before long the younger man finds himself learning some lessons about life from the scruffy stranger behind the wheel. Sherman's Way was the first theatrical feature from producer-turned-director Craig Saavedra. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Adapted from the best-selling novel, the whimsical, heartwarming comedy The Nanny Diaries concerns Annie Braddock (Scarlett Johansson), a recent college graduate from New Jersey whose nurse mother makes an unsuccessful bid to pressure her into a white-collared business career. Sidetracking this path for more colorful pursuits, Annie accepts a position as nanny and domestic servant for a wealthy couple on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, known only as "The Xs" (Paul Giamatti and a heavily coiffed and accoutred Laura Linney). Annie has her first real taste of servant life when she arrives at the family's residence and promptly sinks into Mrs. X's luxury tub, but is soon shuttled off to her own bare-bones room. Face to face, for the first time in her life, with the vast socioeconomic differences between herself and others, Annie must spend her days catering to Mrs. X's every whim, navigating the emotional land mines set by the domineering Mr. X, and tending to the demands of the couple's mischievous and bratty son, Grayer (Nicholas Art). The situation grows a bit more awkward and sticky when Annie begins to fall for a young man who lives near the Xs, whom she's nicknamed Harvard Hottie (Chris Evans), leading her to seriously reevaluate her career goals and priorities. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Love at first sight has some interesting repercussions a few months down the line in this offbeat romantic comedy. Ira Black (Chris Messina) is a wildly neurotic thirtysomething who can't get his life in gear -- the son of a pair of therapists, Arlene (Judith Light) and Seymour (Robert Klein), Ira still hasn't finished his grad school dissertation, he's been in therapy for 12 years, and can't bring himself to settle down with his longtime girlfriend Lea (Maddie Corman). When both Lea and his analyst inform Ira that they don't want to see him anymore, he decides he needs to make some changes. Ira joins a health club, where he meets Abby Willoughby (Jennifer Westfeldt), who is supposed to sell memberships to the gym but is much better at listening to people's problems. The two discover they have a strong and immediate rapport, and Ira asks Abby to marry him only a few hours later. Abby says yes, and soon the couple are wed. However, it isn't until after they've been married for a few weeks that Ira discovers Abby has been divorced twice already, and it makes him very uneasy about their relationship. Despite more therapy, Ira asks Abby for a divorce, and it sends shock waves through their families -- Arlene begins having an affair with Michael (Fred Willard), Abby's free-spirited father, while Seymour commiserates with Abby's mother Lynne (Frances Conroy), and eventually parents and children are all meeting together in group therapy for couples. Ira and Abby was written by leading lady Jennifer Westfeldt, who was also screenwriter and star for the independent hit Kissing Jessica Stein. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

The Fountain

Add The Fountain to top of Queue
Requiem for a Dream director Darren Aronofsky switches gears from drug-induced urban malaise to abstract science fiction with this time-tripping symbolic tale of a man's thousand-year quest to save the woman he loves. Moving between representational stories and images, this meditation on life and death focuses on the concept of the mythical Tree of Life that is said to bestow immortality to all who drink of its sap. In one of the film's allegorical timelines, a 16th century Spanish conquistador played by Hugh Jackman sets out to find the tree in order to save his queen (Rachel Weisz) from the Inquisition. Another conceptual story finds Jackman centuries later, struggling with mortality as a modern-day scientist desperately searching for the medical breakthrough that will save the life of his cancer-stricken wife, Izzi. The third and most abstract concept finds Jackman as a different incarnation of the same character-idea, this time questing for eternal life within the confines of a floating sphere transporting the aged Tree of Life through the depths of space. Even more avant-garde than his breakthrough film Pi, The Fountain finds Aronofsky almost completely abandoning conventional story structure in favor of something more cinematically abstract. Though the film was originally slapped with an R by the MPAA, Aronofsky and co. re-edited it to conform to a PG-13 rating. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Six of the world's most gifted vocalists of Broadway show tunes, with a plethora of Tony and Grammy awards between them -- Mandy Patinkin, Audra McDonald, Dawn Upshaw, Donna Murphy, Judy Blazer, and Richard Muenz -- pay homage to legendary tunesmith and conductor Leonard Bernstein in the concert film Leonard Bernstein's New York. Each of three segments features the cast members singing selections from one of Leonard Bernstein's Manhattan-themed shows, filmed live in the locations where the original scenes are set. The first, with extracts from the composer's late 1944 musical On the Town, has the ensemble singing "New York, New York"; Murphy, Blazer, and Patinkin singing "Ya Got Me"; Patinkin and Blazer singing "Come Up to My Place"; Upshaw singing "Lonely Town"; Patinkin singing "Some Other Time"; and Murphy singing "Ain't Got No Tears Left." The second segment, with musical extracts from Bernstein's 1953 musical Wonderful Town, has Muenz, Upshaw, and Murphy singing "What a Waste"; Muenz singing "A Quiet Girl"; Patinkin singing "Wrong Note Rag"; Blazer singing "Story of My Life"; and McDonald singing "A Little Bit in Love." The third, with musical extracts from Bernstein's 1957 West Side Story, has Upshaw and Muenz singing "One Hand, One Heart," and McDonald and Patinkin singing "Tonight." ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

while maintaining his secret life as costumed crime-fighter Spider-Man. Parker is also struggling to hold on to his relationship with Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst), who is beginning to enjoy success as a model and actress, and both Mary Jane and Peter have noticed he's beginning to buckle under the strain. Parker's friendship with Harry Osborn (James Franco) is also beginning to fray due to Peter's seeming alliance with Spider-Man, whom Harry blames for the death of his father, the nefarious Norman Osborn. As Parker weighs his responsibilities to himself and those around him against the obligations that come with his special powers, Spider-Man is faced with a new nemesis -- Dr. Otto Octavius (Alfred Molina), a deranged scientist whose latest project has turned him into the near-invincible cyborg Doctor Octopus. Spider-Man 2 was directed by Sam Raimi, who helmed the first film, and much of the original cast has also reunited for this sequel, including Rosemary Harris, J.K. Simmons, and Bruce Campbell. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Hack [TV Series]
Hack was essentially The Equalizer as Cab Driver. The protagonist was divorced, disgraced ex-Philadelphia cop Mike Olshansky (David Morse). At the end of his financial rope, Mike found steady employment as a cabbie, though he was never completely successful in suppressing his strong sense of justice. Thus, he frequently became involved in the problems of his passengers, usually rounding up and clobbering bad guys in vigilante fashion. Though the series never overlapped into Travis Bickle territory, it did tend to resemble a Western with a ticking meter. So over-the-top that many viewers tuned in just for the (unintentional) laughs, Hack made its CBS debut on September 27, 2002. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

The Last Debate
The fine line between reporters objectively covering a political campaign and attempting to sway its outcome is explored in this made-for-cable drama based on the novel by noted television journalist Jim Lehrer. Newspaper columnist Mike Howley (James Garner) is asked to moderate a nationally televised debate between two presidential candidates. In collusion with fellow newspeople and debate panelists Barbara Manning (Audra McDonald), Henry Ramirez (Marco Sanchez), and Joan Naylor (Donna Murphy), Howley formulates a plan to boost the campaign of the Democratic candidate, whom they favor. They ask the Republican nominee a number of pointed questions about unsubstantiated charges that he has a propensity for violence, eventually prompting the candidate to leave the stage in a huff after throwing a microphone. Several weeks later, the Democrat carries the election. While the debate served the goals of the reporters, and boosted their public image, some observers have serious questions about what went on, and investigative reporter Tom Chapman (Peter Gallagher) is determined to bring the public the truth. A number of noted journalists and political figures served as consultants for The Last Debate and appear in cameo roles. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Science fiction blends with domestic horror in this thriller. Spencer Armacost (Johnny Depp) is an astronaut on a routine mission in space when something goes horribly wrong and it looks as if he's doomed. However, Spencer is rescued at the last moment and returns to earth a hero. He soon announces that he's retiring from space exploration to spend more time with his wife Jillian (Charlize Theron). Jillian has suffered from depression in the past and would like to start a family, so she's initially thrilled with Spencer's decision. Jillian soon finds herself pregnant, but she starts to notice something odd about her husband, as if the man who returned isn't quite the same person who went away. As her pregnancy advances, Jillian's anxieties increase, but has something really happened to Spencer, or have Jillian's old demons merely resurfaced? The Astronaut's Wife marked the directorial debut of Rand Ravich, who previously penned screenplays for such films as The Maker and Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Star Trek: Insurrection manages to recall the original 1960s series' spirit of liberalism, while transcending it for sheer boldness, embracing issues that are on the political cutting edge in the 1990s and beyond. The fact that the first 30 minutes are presented as a mystery only makes the material more engrossing. While assisting a survey team of Federation allies observing the populace of a distant planet, Lt. Commander Data (Brent Spiner) seemingly goes berserk and attacks the survey team, exposing their existence to the populace and jeopardizing the mission. Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart) brings the Enterprise into orbit to try and apprehend Data and find out what happened . He discovers that the mission isn't one of observation, but the involuntary relocation of a small, peaceful population, undertaken by the Federation and its rogue planet allies the Son'a, supposedly to secure the planet's youth-restoring qualities. As it turns out, there's a much darker side to the plans of the Son'a, and a personal side to the carnage planned by the Son'a leader Ru'afo (F. Murray Abraham). Picard and his officers, suitably outraged by this violation of the Prime Directive -- that no Federation mission may interfere with the natural evolution of an alien culture -- take matters into their own hands in an attempt to expose the plot to public scrutiny, risking their lives in the process. ~ Bruce Eder, Rovi

Amazingly, Season Eight of Law & Order begins with the cast from Season Seven intact, with no additions or deletions. The case at hand: the murder of a pizza delivery man, which the detectives believe was deliberate and not a random shooting. As it turns out, the dead man was the victim of a thrill killing committed by a pair of teenagers (Rob McElhenney, Michael Marrona). Complications: Each teen blames the other for the murder, an eyewitness saw only one of the boys pulling the trigger, and the key clue is the recording of a Confessional -- which cannot be admitted as evidence. In the course of events, detective Curtis (Benjamin Bratt) receives some bad news. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

An aggressive publicity campaign mounted by ABC in the fall of 1996 left no doubt that the first season of the network's new courtroom drama Murder One would break standard weekly series precedent by focusing on a single, solitary murder case throughout the entire season. Led by ruthless criminal attorney Theodore Hoffman (Daniel Benzali), a crack team of lawyers builds a persuasive defense on behalf of arrogant movie star Neil Avedon (Jason Gedrick), who is the prime suspect in the murder of his drug-abusing girlfriend Jessica. Even as Hoffman and his associates Chris Docknovich (Michael Hayden), Arnold Spivak (J.C. MacKenzie), Justine Appleton (Mary McCormick), and Lisa Gillespie (Grace Phillips) move heaven and earth to get Neil off, the equally diligent prosecution team, headed by DA Roger Garfield (Gregory Itzin) and ADA Miriam Grasso (Barbara Bosson), are dedicated to establishing Neil's guilt. Complicating matters is the presence of another suspect: Richard Cross (Stanley Tucci), multimillionaire businessman and owner of the building where Jessica died. Even so, Avedon is tried and convicted -- but there's a breathtaking twist at the very end of season one. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Not much diffPros: Kids love the skulls. Drumsticks feel nice, lightweight. Does make the impact of the stick hitting the drumpad a LITTLE quieter, but not much. Cons: Was hoping these would quiet down the drumming a lot more than they do. It's definitely not enough to play at night while others are sleeping. And while playing as a band w/my middle boy on drums, we have to turn up the TV/stereo to keep the drums from drowning out the actual music. Other Thoughts: We have the RB1 drum set. Heard that the drumpads are quieter on the RB2 Wireless set, so maybe we should upgrade and then try the silencer pads on it. Did you find this review helpful? |

SYRACUSE -- Syracuse Police have identified the pedestrian that was hit by a car and critically injured on Saturday night, May 19.
Police say 59-year-old Henry Mitchell, of Syracuse, was struck by a car on the 400 block of James Street just a few blocks from the Sunoco station at the corner of State and James Streets around 10:40pm last Saturday night.
Police say Mitchell was trying to cross the street when he was hit.
The Post-Standard reported that the car's hood was dented and the windshield was broken from the impact. Witnesses said Mitchell flew through the air after being hit.
Mitchell was transported to Upstate Hospital where he is currently listed in critical, but stable condition.
The accident is still under investigation.

Seems like Xbox live is down because it has been hacked and the details of 47 million players have been released
Ppl are recommending you immediately change your password, problem is you can't unless signed in to xbox live
It also seems that all Micosoft websites are down at the moment. I really hope this isn't going to be another repeat of what happened with the PS3 when it was off for several months due to a major hack because that will really suck.
reports apparently now say it is a false alarm but if so why is Xbox Live down for a lot of people and why are Microsoft websites not working?

strangely enough, looking on different sites and reading posts it seems to be a UK thing. Hopefully it wills top here and be fixed soon...or better yet, as I believe everyone should share in my misery...it will spread to the states and elsewhere
and now it seems only to be affecting us in the UK using Virgin Media.
So moments after some guy has admitted to hacking Xbox live everyone in the UK who gets their internet via Virgin Media is now without Xbox live... weird
Oh and now it is back on.
Hmm I still say everyone should change their passwords while they have the chance because you just never know

This week in... 1950
Friday, December 15, 1950....THREE watercolour paintings donated by Queen Mary were auctioned off to raise money for a new Darby and Joan club in Hexham.
A site had already been bought, but a further £6,000 was needed to run the club for the elderly.
The auction, opened by Viscountess Allendale, saw the paintings raise over £8 for the fund.

Key victories in Senate races Tuesday mean Democrats will keep control of the Senate, CNN projects.
While poll results were still trickling in for some significant races, the Democratic wins will make it impossible for Republicans to regain control of the chamber.
"No chance we get there," a top GOP source told CNN. "We have (a) real possibility of going backwards."
According to CNN projections, Democratic candidate Elizabeth Warren defeated incumbent Republican Sen. Scott Brown in Massachusetts and Democratic Rep. Joe Donnelly scored a major upset in the Indiana Senate race when he won against tea party candidate Richard Mourdock.
Both projected wins are pickups of key Republican seats and critical to Democratic ambitions to maintain their majority control of the Senate.
Democrats also scored notable victories in Virginia, Ohio and Connecticut.
Former Gov. Angus King's victory in Maine's Senate race was another blow to Republicans. King, an independent who quickly rose to frontrunner status, won the seat vacated by retired moderate Republican Sen. Olympia Snowe.
King hasn't said which party he would caucus with in the Senate, but he is widely assumed to align with Democrats.
Considered a shoo-in for re-election, Snowe shocked her colleagues earlier this year when she suddenly announced that she would leave the Senate, which she described as hopelessly partisan.
Two years ago, Republicans had every reason to believe they could take back the Senate this year, after major midterm election gains. But heading into Tuesday, Democrats appeared well-positioned to retain their slim majority, and with it, the ability to influence much of the Washington agenda during the next two years.
There were 33 Senate seats at play on Tuesday.
Brown defeats Mandel in contentious Ohio Senate race
Going into Tuesday's vote, Republicans were protecting only 10 seats, while Democrats were defending 23, many in narrowly divided swing states. In addition, several veteran Democratic incumbents, mostly moderates, announced they would retire, making it potentially even easier for Republicans to win those seats.
Republicans have encountered their own problems.
In August, the campaign of Rep. Todd Akin nearly collapsed after the Missouri Republican's comments about "legitimate rape" and his suggestion that women could biologically prevent pregnancy if they are raped. Until then, Republicans believed Akin would defeat Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill, who polls showed was not very popular after just one term.
McCaskill defeated Akin at the polls Tuesday, CNN projects.
Mourdock sparked a similar controversy last month when he defended his opposition to abortion even in the case of rape because, "I think even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something God intended to happen."
Operatives from both parties agreed that many Senate races would be determined by which presidential candidate carries the state, particularly in key battleground states like Florida, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Nevada.
Key Senate race snapshots
Arizona: Rep. Jeff Flake (R) vs. Richard Carmona (D)
Open seat -- Sen. Jon Kyl (R) is retiring
This race turned more competitive than originally expected. Democratic nominee Dr. Richard Carmona, a Vietnam veteran and a former U.S. surgeon general under President George W. Bush, proved to be a formidable opponent to six-term Rep. Jeff Flake, whose tough August primary for the GOP nomination left him bruised as he began the general election.
Tightening polls caused both campaigns to go negative, with Flake accusing Carmona of having anger issues over an incident in which a former HHS official accused him of banging on her door in the middle of the night and scaring her family (Carmona denied the incident ever occurred). Carmona accused Flake of not supporting veterans as a congressman (Flake said Carmona is cherry-picking votes and not looking at his entire record).
Democrats thought their candidate's strengths and the state's growing Hispanic population will lead to their party's first successful Senate election since 1988. But Republicans pointed to no significant changes in Hispanic voting records, Flake's endorsements from Sens. Kyl and John McCain, and the state's traditional GOP support as reasons for a Flake victory.
