Type This identifies the machine as continuous, auto adjusting, or bilevel operation. This does not identify whether the machine automatically adjusts pressure. Auto adjusting refers to APAP, whereas BiPAP Auto is differentiated using the Auto Pressure Adjustment property. BiPAP machines are defined further using Spontaneous or Timed properties. A CPAP machine blows one constant pressure of air into your passageway throughout the night. Your ideal pressure was determined during your sleep study. A BiPAP machine delivers two separate pressures of air; One when the patient inhales and a separate pressure when they exhale. The machine alternates between the two set pressures to help optimize your sleep apnea treatment. An APAP machine automatically adjusts on a breath by breath basis to blow the minimum pressure needed to keep your airway open during sleep. This allows your machine to provide you with your ideal pressure nightly. | CPAP | CPAP | CPAP |
Warranty Warranty is the length of time that the manufacturer will guarantee a product to be free of defects. Warranties vary in length depending on manufacturer, but generally all machines come with a 2 Year Warranty. | 2 Years | 2 Years | 2 Years |
Sound Level This is the level of sound the machine produces at a pressure of 10cm, standing 1 meter away or roughly 3 feet from machine. Measured in Decibels, the values also indicate whether the machine is considered a "quiet CPAP"; see Quiet property. | 31-dB | 29 dB | 29 dBA |
Quiet This identifies which machines have a decibel rating of 29 and lower. This does not account for use with the humidifier attached, which could supply additional volume that can muffle or amplify sound. This property does not account for noise that travels through the CPAP tubing, seemingly sounding louder than the measured db rating. | No | Yes | Yes |
Manuals Included This indicates which manuals are included with the purchase of a CPAP machine. Most all machines come with a patient manual; also called 'user manual', which may or may not have pressure setting instructions. Some machines come with both the patient and quick setup guide or both patient and clinician manuals. | Patient/Quick Setup | Patient | Patient/Quick Setup |
Dimensions | |||

Humidifier Features | |||
Heated Humidifier This indicates which heated humidifier works best with the listed CPAP machine. In some instances, Built-in is used to describe a machine/humidifier combination system. The Fisher and Paykel HC150 was used for machines that do not have an integrated or built in humidifier system. | M Series Heated | System One 60 Series | Transcend Heated |
Built-In Humidifier Identifies which CPAP has a humidifier that is built into the CPAP. Built-In humidifiers cannot be separated from the CPAP machine. | No | No | No |
Heated Humidifier Type This property identifies how the machine incorporates a Heated Humidifier. Build In humidifiers are built into the CPAP machine and cannot be separated from the machine. Integrated humidifiers connect directly to the CPAP machine and they can only be used with compatible CPAP machines. With Integrated� humidifiers, the CPAP machine, can be separated and used without the humidifier. CPAP machines that do not have a built in humidifier and do not have an integrated humidifier option have to use a Stand Alone humidifier as the machine's heated humidifier option. Stand Alone� humidifiers can be used with any machine and connect to the CPAP machine with an additional hose. | Integrated | Integrated | Integrated |
RainOut Reduction Manufacturers are finding ways to reduce the amount of water that collects in the CPAP hose when using a Heated Humidifier. The Rainout Reduction feature varies by manufacturer and machine and can be anything from an integrated heated hose, to technology that measures the humidity at the mask and adjusts the humidity to reduce rainout. | No | 60 Series Heated Tube | No |
Integrated Heated Hose This indicates that the machine has an integrated heated hose option to enhance humidification and reduce rainout. An integrated heated hose draws its power from the machine itself and does not have a separate power cord and is adjusted through the machine settings. | No | Yes | No |
Pressure Features | |||
Auto Pressure Adjustment This property defines whether the machine automatically adjusts pressure to meet the needs of the CPAP user on a breath-by-breath basis. All APAP machines are defined as 'Auto Adjusting', but some BiPAP's also use an Auto feature on both the IPAP and EPAP. If not marked, Yes, assume the machine does not have AUTO capabilities. | No | No | No |
Pressure Range A CPAP (Constant Positive Air Pressure) delivers continuous airflow at a prescribed pressure at 4cm to 30cm. APAP operates between a range and BiPAP machines are a mix of ranges and constant pressures. This pressure is measured in centimeters of water pressure (H2O) and 4-20cm is average pressure range on most CPAP machines. | 4-20cm H20 | 4-20cm H20 | 4-20 cm |
EPAP Pressure Range This Property lists the operating range for the Exhalation Positive Airway Pressure (EPAP). This is the pressure setting used when you exhale. EPAP is always lower than the IPAP (inhalation) pressure, making breathing out easier and more comfortable. | NA | NA | NA |
Easy Breathing Pressure Relief is a feature that lowers your therapy pressure to help with difficulties breathing against the machine's airflow, providing a more comfortable and natural breathing pattern. Assistance can occur on the Exhalation, on the Inhalation, and on both exhalation and inhalation at the same time. | C-Flex | C-FLex | No |
Ramp The Ramp feature allows the user to start treatment at a lower pressure to fall asleep with, gradually raising the pressure over a set time. This is a comfort setting and can set from 0 to 45 minutes on most CPAP machines. | Yes | Yes | Yes |
CPAP Mode This property defines whether the machine is capable of continuously blowing a constant pressure. All CPAP machines are defined as 'continuous', but some BiPAP's and APAP's also come with a CPAP mode; some BiPAP and BiLevel machines Do NOT. By setting the IPAP and EPAP to the same pressure, a CPAP Mode is achieved, preventing the EPAP pressure from dropping. | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Leak Compensation Leak Compensation is a machine feature that identifies mask leaks and adjusts to maintain the delivered pressure as set. If marked N/A assume the information is not available due to being out of production or unavailable. | N/A | Yes | Yes |
Power Features | |||
Direct Battery Operation Indicates which machines have a DC port in which you can use to connect a battery pack or a deep cycle marine battery with an optional DC cable. This is different from an integrated battery that works only with the machine it was designed for. (i.e. Everest CPAP Machine) see property Integrated Battery | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Voltage Range Domestic Voltage is the voltage that is used with a standard wall outlet in the United States and ranges from 100-120 volts. International Voltage can range from 220v-240v AC. | 100-240V AC | 100-240V AC | 100-240V AC |
Optional DC Cable A 'Yes' answer indicates that the CPAP Machine has an optional DC cable that plugs directly into a DC port (see _Direct Battery Operation_). This allows you to use a DC power source, such as a battery or car cigarette lighter. Although some cables already come with battery terminal leads, some DC cables will need a separate part that connects the cigarette lighter adapter to another adapter with terminal leads. | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Integrated Battery An integrated battery pack attaches to and functions seamlessly with the machine it is integrated with. It allows your CPAP to run on AC and fail over to the DC battery only if necessary. | No | No | No |
Software Features | |||
Advanced Software/Data Identifies which machines are data capable and have the ability to track your therapy progress over time. The machine captures key metrics like AHI (Apnea/Hypopnea Index), Leakage, and most pressure used. Depending on the machine, the data can be retrieved through an on Machine Screen Display (MSD), through Optional Software (OS), and/or through SmartCode (SC). | No | No | OS |
Data Card This property marks the machines that have the ability to record performance data on a removable card. Some machines that are flagged as having software (seeOptional Software), do not have removable memory cards, rather instead, records information on-board and must use a download cable to retrieve the data from the machine. | Yes | Yes | No |
Optional Software Software is an option on some CPAP machines. The software can give details on compliance and performance. The patient or physician downloads the data from the CPAP machine to determine how long a patient has used their machine each night and how well the machine is working to stop Apnea/Hypopnea events. This property shows the software package to use for machine that has the ability to transfer data to your computer and report Hours of Usage. See Advanced Software for a list of machines that can report AHI or Leakage. | EncoreViewer | No | Yes |
Additional Features | |||
Auto Altitude Adjustment Altitude Adjustment is defined as the machine's ability to compensate for changes in altitude. Compensation can either occur manually or automatically. Manual adjustments occur within the Setup Menu and must be set by the user. Automatic requires no user intervention. | No | Manual | Auto |
Auto ON/OFF This feature turns the machines off and on when putting on or taking off the mask. When you put your mask on the machines senses you breathing and turns itself on. Take off the mask and the machine turns off. | Yes | Yes | No |
Mask Off Alert This feature detects excessive mask leaks due to poor cushion seal or when a user stops therapy by removing a mask when in use. The alert can be in the form of an audible alarm (ALARM) or a text message on the unit's LCD display (LCD). | LCD; ALARM | LCD; ALARM | No |
Spontaneous Spontaneous (S) mode tells the machine to start blowing at IPAP pressure with no specific interval set. The machine must wait and detect a break in the breathing cycle before reacting, switching from exhalation to inhalation. If a backup rate is needed, then the unit will need a time interval setting and will be marked 'Yes' on the Timed property. | No | No | No |
Timed Timed (T) or Spontaneous Timed (ST) modes provide a customizable backup rate that forces the machine to switch from exhalation to inhalation. In ST Mode, the machine monitors the breathing cycle and switches from EPAP to IPAP once the backup time is met or whenever the break is detected through the sensors; whichever occurs first. The time aspect is only meant to act as a backup respiratory rate to the (S) function (see Spontaneous). This is used for patients with central sleep apnea, or those who need non-invasive mechanical ventilation. | No | No | No |
Designed For Her These machines were designed with a woman's lifestyle in mind. | No | No | No |

Manufacturer Warranty
This machine comes with a 2 Year Manufacturer Warranty. CPAP.com will work with the manufacturer on your behalf if the machine needs repairs. Please follow these steps:
Please note: The manufacturer warranty is voided by water damage or misuse of the machine.
CPAP therapy provides a constant airflow which holds the airway open so that uninterrupted breathing is maintained during sleep. It is traditionally provided through a nasal mask that seals around the nose to maintain the pressure level.
All CPAP masks work with all machines.
We provide our customers with many tools to make informed decisions about their machine purchases. Options include:
We work very hard to provide many different ways for our customers to compare products. Here are the machine product guides we have created and maintain:
Machines come with a six foot hose, power cord, at least one filter, and manuals. Most manufacturers include a carrying case which is designed specifically for their equipment. CPAP / BiPAP / APAP machines do not come with a delivery system or mask. CPAP Masks must be purchased separately.
To see the list of what specifically comes with each machine, you can browse for a machine. Then on the product page, click the "Specs" tab to see a full list of what comes with the machine.
Yes, all CPAPs use at least one filter that is usually a type of foam material and washable. Some CPAPs offer finer filtration with the addition of a disposable paper filter.
Cleaning and changing filters is the only maintenance required for a CPAP machine.
The filters are located at the back of the machine at the air intake. The image below shows the black foam filter at the back of the Everest 3 CPAP Machine.
Yes. Federal law requires we have a valid prescription on file before we ship your mask, machine and/or humidifier.
We provide many easy ways to get your prescription:
The ramp button on a machine is a feature that allows for a gradual pressure build-up to your prescribed pressure. The feature is enjoyed by those with high pressures because they ease up to their pressure.
Exhalation relief is a comfort feature offered by two manufactures which reduces the air flow at the time of exhalation making the breathing process more natural.
C-Flex is a pressure relief feature that makes breathing back against CPAP pressure easier to do by reducing the pressure at the beginning of exhalation and returning to therapeutic pressure just before inhalation. Independent studies conducted by leading universities indicate that patient comfort, and therefore, patient CPAP compliance, is higher with machines that use C-Flex. C-Flex is a technology invented by Respironics, is proprietary, and is not available on other brands of CPAP Machines.
C-Flex Easy Breathing Technology Visual Graph
C-Flex vs. Traditional CPAP: Brown University Study
cpaptalk.com Interview, C-Flex in the Remstar Pro and Remstar Auto
C-Flex only works at the start of an exhale. Bi-Flex works during the transition from exhalation to inhalation, the transition from inhalation to exhalation and during exhalation.
The only care a CPAP or BiPAP machine requires is to clean or change the filters at the air intake. This keeps the internal parts from accumulating dust. Fine, paper filters should be changed out every 30 days, or when they appear soiled. Foam, washable filters should be rinsed with clear running water once a week, allowed to air dry, and reinserted.
There are some other suggested actions to care for your machine:
CPAP machines which record full data (such as AHI and leak info):
First you need to determine if your machine is configured to operate on DC power and has a DC power outlet. If your machine does have a DC power outlet and you want to run your marine battery, then you will need the correct DC cable for your machine and an adapter cable that fits over the cigarette lighter plug and ends in alligator clips.
CPAP.com sells complete battery kits with everything you need for your machine including the right cables for your machine and the battery. You can find the right battery kit for your machine here.
If your machine does not have a DC power outlet, then you will also need an inverter to be able to run your machine on battery power.
If you have questions about the specific power needs of your machine, review the "Power" tab on your machine's product page, or give us a call at 1-800-356-5221.
CPAP software allows the downloading of information from certain CPAP machines. Information on breathing, pressure levels delivered, apneas, etc. is available to help determine the effectiveness of CPAP therapy. Software is not required to operate a CPAP machine. CPAP Software also provides more data than obtained through the on screen display or SmartCode. The CPAP Software also allows you and your doctor to drill into any night of data recorded and view the data on an hour by hour basis.
Some CPAP manufacturer maintains a proprietary software package that is only compatible with their machines.
Here is a list of each manufacturer and the name of its related full data software:
There are two types of software available: Compliance software, and Advanced software.
Compliance software provides data such as patient hours, total machine operating hours, your pressure setting, and pressure relief information. Advance software includes compliance data and provides more detail such as AHI (Apnea/Hypopnea Index), Leakage, most pressure used, and a detailed usage histogram.
Compliance software is available with some standard CPAP machines. Advanced software is available with most top of the line CPAP machines, APAPs, and Bi-level machines as well.
Software data can be interpreted by your physician or clinician. There are also many websites and search engines available to help you research the sleep apnea related terms which will provide you more knowledge in managing your own cpap therapy. CPAPtalk.com. our free Sleep Apnea forum is a great resource for CPAP users who want to understand their condition and take control over their health.
CPAP stands for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. CPAP therapy is the most recommended and the most effective treatment for Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
A CPAP machine provides air at a constant prescribed pressure through a tube and out of a CPAP mask to a person with Obstructive Sleep Apnea. CPAP therapy provides a constant airflow which holds the airway open so that uninterrupted breathing is maintained during sleep. This eliminates sleep apnea events and allows the patient to get a restful sleep.
The pressure of the air is determined during your sleep study and your doctor will prescribe you a CPAP machine at that pressure.
CPAP therapy is traditionally provided through a nasal mask that seals around the nose. However, more innovative and comfortable options are available and advances in the delivery of CPAP therapy are continually occurring.
For instance: CPAPs with that boast FLEX or EPS technology will offer you exhalation relief. APAP, BiPAP and BiLevel machines offer various levels of pressure throughout the night and exhalation relief.

I had a chance to combine my two loves in life recently and had a two weeks' holiday in wonderful France, to which I had been before, and had loved so much. I took a little Renault rental car and headed off from Paris, to the Palace of Versailles, to Chartres then southward to sunny Provence, via the Auvergne region, with the Songs of the Auvergne playing repeated on the CD player.
Magnifique, comme toujours. I saw many art galleries and followed the footsteps of artists, like poor Vincent Van Gogh.
Back home all too soon, I ordered a canvas print from wahooart.com, choosing this painting by Cézanne, http://EN.WahooArt.com/A55A04/w.nsf/OPRA/BRUE-8EWNWL, to remember my trip by. - October 01, 2012

Pretty Girl Names: This week's Nameberry 9
Some pretty girl names–and a couple of attractive boys' too–are highlighted by Appellation Mountain's Abby Sandel for this week's The Nameberry 9.
It was a good week for gorgeous girl names. From current favorites to up and coming possibilities, pop culture gave us a quartet of new daughters with noteworthy names.
Beyond new babies, a literary character from none other than J.K. Rowling's latest novel answers to a promising appellation, as does the teenaged vampire sweetheart from Halloween-themed box office winner Hotel Transylvania.
This past week wasn't all about the girls, though. One classically named boy also makes the list of newsworthy birth announcements.
All of this reminds me that while the mainstream media prefers to focus on headlines like "Celebs Choose Crazy Names" or "Parents Try Hard to Be Different with Baby Names," it is very possible to find something lovely and different without resorting to the outrageous. That's something that berries have always embraced.

Groundwater levels rebound in some, but not all regions of SRWMD
Jul 13th, 2012 | By Submitted | Category: UncategorizedLIVE OAK, FL, July 13, 2012 – Groundwater levels in most regions within the Suwannee River Water Management District (District) have rebounded following record rainfall, courtesy of tropical storms Beryl and Debby. But the eastern and extreme southern portions of the District are still experiencing low and extremely low groundwater levels, and many counties still have 12-month rainfall deficits of as much as 15-20 inches.
"There were significant improvements in many areas of the District and those improvements are on-going," said Megan Wetherington, District senior professional engineer. "Other areas did not recover greatly due to the severity of the drought."
Consequently, District Executive Director Ann Shortelle said it is premature for the District to lift a water shortage order that was declared just weeks before the arrival of the tropical storms and which remains in effect through Sept. 30.
"We certainly understand that in our flooded counties, water conservation may be the furthest thing from most people's minds," said Shortelle. "But in other regions of the District groundwater levels remain low and we should all remember that water conservation is vital to protecting our water resources."
District staff will continue to monitor conditions until longer-term effects of the tropical storms are evaluated and then will make recommendations regarding continuation of the water shortage accordingly, said Shortelle.
Tropical Storm Debby brought up to 26 inches in three days. Average rainfall in the District in June was 18.37 inches, the highest monthly average on record. In the 36 days between May 26 and June 30 – the time period of Tropical Storms Beryl and Debby – a portion of Suwannee and Lafayette counties received up to 48 inches, almost a typical year's amount of rain.
The majority of rainfall fell in the central areas of the District. Portions of Suwannee, Columbia, and Lafayette counties received up to 33 inches in June. The coastal and outlying areas in the District received as little as 9 inches for the month.
Some areas on the Upper Suwannee River and many lakes and tributaries of the Santa Fe River experienced major flooding. The Suwannee River at White Springs rose 32 feet in two days, cresting at almost 85.3 feet. The Suwannee River at Suwannee Springs crested at almost 70.3 feet. The New River near Lake Butler and the Santa Fe River at Worthington Springs crested with the highest stage since 1992 and both exceeded the 10 percent flood. The Santa Fe at O'Leno State Park crested higher than any recorded flood since 1980.
By the end of June, levels in all but two District monitor wells had risen. Wells near the Suwannee and Santa Fe rivers rose to their highest levels since previous floods. Eighteen percent of monitor wells were above normal, 34 percent were normal, 13 percent were below normal, and 34 percent were in the lowest 10 percent of records.
The three-month outlook issued by the Climate Prediction Center calls for above-normal precipitation and temperatures through September.
The District's June hydrologic conditions report is available at http://www.srwmd.state.fl.us/archives/35/June2012_TSDebby_Hydroconditions_Report.pdf

Is France on to something? Should people push for the legalization of P2P? Or should P2P be strictly prohibited everywhere? It seems pretty fruitless to try to regulate it. It will just send the community "underground," and there are already plenty of underground file sharing communities (mostly with a BitTorrent focus) out there right now.PARIS (Hollywood Reporter) - France's lower house of parliament has voted to legalize peer-to-peer file-sharing of films and music on the Internet, unleashing a wave of protest from the country's film, audiovisual and music industry organizations.
If the measure passes in the upper house, France would become the first country to legalize peer-to-peer downloading at a time when most Western nations are battling to curb illegal downloading on the Internet.

User Review:
- Gold Class Cinemas is equivalent to flying first class, and actually, customers say it is better. Movie lovers select their seat online prior to arriving at the cinema. Instead of waiting in line for 30 minutes prior to the movie start, Gold Class Cinemas customers can relax in the lounge, enjoy the easy-to-eat regional menu prepared fresh by an in-house chef and enjoy a drink from a the fully stocked bar which includes wine, beers and cocktails. Movie lovers are escorted into their theater 5 – 10 minutes prior to the start of the movie, where they have call buttons to order dinner, drinks or a blanket or pillow throughout the duration of the movie. Gold Class Cinema shows the top new commercial movie releases and blockbusters in the latest digital projection, including RealD 3D, with super-wide screens and digital sound. Most Gold Class Cinemas are the size of a standard 150 seat movie theater, however, with 40 or less seats. The difference is a fully reclining plush chair and slightly lighted table for your food and drink. Gold Class provides an intimate, gold-standard experience; it's like watching a movie in a private screening room.

By Caitlin Dineen and Nancy McCleary Staff writers
LUMBERTON - A Columbus County man was identified late Tuesday night as the man accused of shooting and killing an off-duty Lumberton police officer.
Marques Ramon Brown, 27, of Whiteville, was charged with first-degree murder in the shooting death of Master Police Officer Jeremiah Montgomery Goodson Jr.
According to jail records, Brown, who also had a Lumberton address listed, was brought into the Robeson County Jail at 7:03 p.m. by members of the State Bureau of Investigation, the agency leading the investigation.
Investigators said Goodson, 33, was fatally shot outside a gas station Tuesday morning when he approached the suspect, who was wanted for other crimes.
Jail records show Brown has six other warrants for his arrest. The details of those warrants were not available Tuesday night.
Goodson was shot around 11 a.m. in the parking lot of 5030 Fayetteville Road.
Lumberton Police Chief Michael McNeill wouldn't release many details about what transpired outside the Shell station, which is along a busy commercial corridor. He is expected to release a statement later this morning.
Law enforcement sources said Goodson saw Brown who was wanted in a homicide and possibly other crimes. He called for backup and approached the suspect, who shot the officer in the chest.
The chief said the department's officers are told to call for backup if they see something while off duty.
"When you become a police officer, it's 24/7," he said.
Goodson, who joined the Police Department in June 2006, primarily worked as a gangs officer. He spent time in the patrol and public housing divisions, too, said James Moore, the city's director of human resources.
McNeill said police do not believe the shooting was gang-related.
Goodson's work as a gangs officer involved spending time at Lumberton High School, said Principal Stephen Gaskins.
"He was here often," Gaskins said. "He was a very good person. The kids loved him. A great person, police officer and great man."
Students from Lumberton High School said they learned quickly about Goodson's death on the social networking website Facebook.
"It's hurting a lot of people in different ways," Shmaya Newton said.
Newton, 19, graduated from the high school this year and said she knew Goodson all four years she attended school.
"He always told the young people, 'You got to get your life together,' " Newton said, adding Goodson worked to keep her out of trouble.
Santanna Oxendine, who also graduated this year, said Goodson didn't just work to assist students while they were in school.
His guidance and assistance usually affected home life, too, Oxendine said.
"He wasn't only into school," Oxendine, who came to the Shell station with Newton after learning about the shooting, said. "He used to help you with problems at home and make you feel better."
Goodson is married, and his wife is pregnant with their second child, city officials said. Neither she nor their 2-year-old daughter witnessed the shooting, McNeill said.
As of Tuesday at 9:45 p.m., Goodson's wife had not given birth, McNeill said.
McNeill said Goodson's wife was "holding on" and encouraged Lumberton residents to support the family through prayer.
"You know it's going to be tough on the family," he said.
McNeill said the loss of a fellow police officer is also difficult for the grieving Police Department.
"These officers that we have here are like my brothers, my sisters and my children," he said. "When one hurts, we all hurt."
Goodson was initially hired by the city of Lumberton in November 2000 to work in the Public Works Department, Moore said.
"It's a tragedy," said Lumberton Councilman John Cantey. "He was just doing his job. He was always ready to stand with and by you."

Thomas D. Lutze specializes in Asian History. Having completed graduate studies at Cornell University, Peking University, and the University of Wisconsin (Ph.D., 1996), Tom teaches a wide variety of courses ranging from introductory surveys of China and Japan to focused courses on 20th Century Asia, including WWII in the Pacific, the Chinese Revolution, Modern Japan, and the Vietnam Wars. He teaches a very special May Term travel course in China, hosted and co-sponsored by the History Department of Peking University. His research and writing center on the intellectual, social, and political roles of the urban and rural middle classes in the Chinese revolution from the 1930s onward. His first book, China's Inevitable Revolution: Rethinking America's Loss to the Communists (Palgrave-MacMillan, 2007), explores the pivotal battle between the United States and the Chinese Communists for the allegiance of the urban liberal democrats during the civil war, 1945-1949. Most recently, Tom has worked on a new edited volume entitled, Radicalism, Revolution, and Reform in Modern China: Essays in Honor of Maurice Meisner (2010). His chapter, "Post-Socialist Capitalism in Rural China," examines the economic basis--in particular the controversies over land ownership--at the root of the tens of thousands of peasant protests in China over the past decade.
Tom is a member of the Asian Studies team with the International Studies Program, and he has been selected as Director of the 2011 IWU London Program, offering a new course, "The Bloody History of Afternoon Tea: The British Empire and Asia."

Legg-Calve-Perthes disease
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/legg-calve-perthes-disease/DS00654
Legg-Calve-Perthes (LEG-kahl-VAY-PER-tuz) disease is a childhood condition that affects the hip. The thighbone and pelvis meet in a ball-and-socket joint. Legg-Calve-Perthes occurs when blood supply is temporarily interrupted to the ball part of the joint. That part of the bone then breaks more easily and heals poorly. The cause of the condition is not known despite considerable research.
Although Legg-Calve-Perthes disease can affect children of nearly any age, it's most common among boys ages 4 to 8.
Treatment focuses on keeping the ball part of the joint as round as possible while it heals, which can take two years or more. In some cases, physical therapy, exercises or casts are used to hold the ball firmly within its socket. Surgery is also an option, but most children with Legg-Calve-Perthes disease recover well without surgery.
Signs and symptoms of Legg-Calve-Perthes disease include:
- Limping
- Pain or stiffness in the hip, groin, thigh or knee
- Limited range of motion of the hip joint
Legg-Calve-Perthes disease usually involves just one hip, but both hips are affected in some children.
When to see a doctor
Make an appointment with your doctor if your child begins limping or complains of hip, groin or knee pain.
Legg-Calve-Perthes disease occurs when too little blood is supplied to the ball portion of the hip joint (femoral head). Without an adequate blood supply, this bone becomes unstable, and it may break easily and heal poorly. The underlying cause of the temporary reduction in blood flow to the femoral head is still unknown.
Risk factors
Risk factors for Legg-Calve-Perthes disease include:
- Age. Although Legg-Calve-Perthes disease can affect children of nearly any age, it most commonly occurs between ages 4 and 8.
- Your child's sex. Legg-Calve-Perthes is up to five times more common in boys than in girls.
- Race. White children are more likely to develop the disorder than are black children.
- Family history. In a small number of cases, Legg-Calve-Perthes appears to run in families.
Children who have had Legg-Calve-Perthes disease are more likely to develop early osteoarthritis in the affected hip.
Preparing for your appointment
You'll probably first bring your concerns to the attention of your child's doctor. After an initial evaluation, your child may be referred to a doctor who specializes in bone problems in children (pediatric orthopedist).
What you can do
Before your appointment, you may want to write a list of answers to the following questions:
- When did these symptoms begin?
- Does any particular leg position or activity make the pain worse?
- Have any of your relatives had similar symptoms when they were children?
- Does your child have any other medical problems?
- What medications or supplements does your child take regularly?
What to expect from your doctor
Your doctor may ask some of the following questions:
- What are your child's symptoms?
- Have they gotten worse over time?
- Do the symptoms seem to come and go?
- Is your child active?
- Has your child experienced an accident or injury that might have caused hip damage?
- If your child's symptoms include pain, where is the pain located?
- Does activity make your child's symptoms worse?
- Does resting ease your child's discomfort?
Tests and diagnosis
During the physical exam, your doctor may move your child's legs into various positions to check range of motion and to see if any of the positions cause pain.
Imaging tests
These types of tests are vital to the diagnosis of Legg-Calve-Perthes disease and may include:
- X-rays. Initial X-rays may look normal, because it can take several weeks after symptoms begin for the damage associated with Legg-Calve-Perthes disease to become evident on X-rays. Your doctor may recommend several X-rays over time, to track the progression of the bone damage.
- Bone scan. In this test, a small amount of radioactive material is injected into a vein. The material is attracted to areas where bone is rapidly breaking down and rebuilding itself, so these areas show up on the resulting scan images.
- Magnetic resonance imaging. This technology uses radio waves and a strong magnetic field to produce very detailed images of bone and soft tissue inside the body. MRIs often can visualize bone damage caused by Legg-Calve-Perthes disease before X-rays can.
Treatments and drugs
As Legg-Calve-Perthes disease progresses, the ball part of the joint (femoral head) weakens and fractures — losing its nice round shape. The goal of treatment is to keep the femoral head as round as possible, so the hip will work properly in the future. Doctors use a variety of treatments to keep the femoral head snug in the socket portion of the joint. The socket acts as a mold for the fractured femoral head as it heals.
The length of time required for healing will vary, depending on the severity of the bone's damage. In most cases, treatment will last for two years or longer.
If your child is 7 or younger and the femoral head is still fairly round, your doctor may suggest nonsurgical treatments such as:
- Exercises. As the hip stiffens, the muscles and ligaments around it may shorten. Stretching and strengthening exercises can help keep the hip more flexible.
- Crutches. In some cases, your child may need to avoid bearing weight on the affected hip. Using crutches can help protect the joint.
- Traction. If your child is in severe pain, a period of bed rest and traction may help. Traction involves a steady and gentle pulling force on your child's leg.
- Casts. To keep the femoral head deep within its socket, your doctor may recommend a special type of leg cast that keeps both legs spread widely apart for four to six weeks.
Nonsurgical treatments don't work as well in children older than 7, perhaps because their bones aren't as moldable as those of younger children. Surgery may also be a better option for children with more-severe bone deformities. Surgeries used to treat Legg-Calve-Perthes disease include:
- Contracture release. Legg-Calve-Perthes and the immobility imposed by some of its treatments can shorten nearby muscles and tendons, which may cause the hip to pull inward (contracture). Surgery to lengthen these tissues may help restore the hip's flexibility.
- Loose body removal. In some children, the damage to the femoral head can result in loose bits of bone or torn flaps of cartilage. Surgically removing this misplaced tissue can help the hip joint move more smoothly.
- Hardware implants. If leg casts can't place the ball and socket in a healthy position, your doctor might suggest changing the position of the ball and socket. This may involve the use of metal hardware such as screws, wires or plates.
- Joint realignment. If the femoral head doesn't match up well with its socket, surgeons can alter the angle of the thighbone or the pelvis to bring the two bones into better alignment.
Lifestyle and home remedies
Home care measures to reduce pain and prevent damage include:
- Activity modification. Your child should avoid high-impact activities, such as running or jumping, because they can increase the amount of damage to the weakened bone.
- Pain medication. Over-the-counter medicines such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others) can help relieve pain and reduce joint inflammation. Don't give your child aspirin as it's been linked to a rare, but serious, condition called Reye's syndrome.
- Heat or cold. Hot packs or ice may help relieve hip pain associated with Legg-Calve-Perthes disease. Using heat before stretching exercises can help loosen tight muscles.

Recent booksMarilyn Yalom; With Books Publishing; 648 pp., 28,000 won How has the institution of marriage affected women through the ages? U.S. cultural historian Marilyn Yalom charts the evolution of marriage in this book, first published in the United States in 2001, and published in Korean this month. The author is a scholar at Stanford's Institute for Women and Gender. "A History of the Wife" is a study of the laws, religious practices, social customs, economic patterns, and political consciousness that have affected generations of wives. Marriage is not a woman's indispensable passage to motherhood — up to 40 percent of American first children are being born out of wedlock. And, since one in two marriages will end in divorce, it no longer guarantees a woman permanent protection in a world that has traditionally been unkind to unmarried women. Yalom explores some interesting questions. For example, how did marriage, considered a religious duty in medieval Europe, become a platform for personal fulfillment in contemporary America? How did the notion of romantic love, a novelty in the Middle Ages, become a prerequisite for marriage today? And, if the original purpose of marriage was procreation, what exactly is the purpose of marriage for women now? Drawing extensively from diaries, memoirs and letters, the author also pays tribute to the ordinary wives who over the centuries have affected the legal, personal and social meaning of marriage. — DO JE-HAE I'm Sorry, Mom Noh Gyeong-hee; illustrations by Kim Ryeong-ha; Donga Ilbo Publishing; 200 pp., 9,800 won This children's book takes its title from last year's MBC documentary about a 4-year-old girl's continued battle against an unknown but deadly disease she was born with. The writer-illustrator duo behind the 2009 bestseller "Red Bean Mom," based on another heartbreaking TV documentary from the network, stays faithful to the original story of Seo-yeon, her family and the friends she makes in a children's hospital to great effect. As the title points out, the most moving tale comes from the girl's apology to her mom for having to take care of her. While everyday is a test of Seo-yeon's strength — it is a life and death situation for her — the protagonist lives with the hope that she will one day become better. She even has the heart to think of others' well-being. Fellow patients in the hospital appear, sometimes get well and inevitably leave, but there is no display of jealousy from Seo-yeon. It is a necessary reminder to readers of all ages, young and old, of how important our health is and how trivial some of our problems can be when put into the perspective such as this. — KWAAK JE-YUP Heart Pounding Car Talk Kim Woo-seong; Miraebook Publishing; 320 pp., 15,000 won The majority of the population probably has never dabbled in journalism and may often think the job entails meeting famous people and getting previews on the newest and latest stuff. And one of the culprits for reinforcing this image is the motoring or automotive journalist who gets to test the newest cars before they hit the market. This book by a 13-year field veteran and editor-in-chief of the BBC's Top Gear monthly magazine not only explains the fatal attraction of automobiles (to him, at least) but also offers an intensive introduction course that eventually led to his current profession. One of the more insightful comments about the job description comes early: "A motoring journalist is not an expert... Instead, he holds the special rights to meet and ask questions to all the experts in the world across brands and nations." He ends on a wishful note, comparing the barebones state of automobile journalism in Korea to its enviable counterparts in Japan and the United Kingdom. Hardly a groundbreaking work, but perhaps this exposure will attract more young people to the field. — KWAAK JE-YUP Poor Economics Abhijit Banerjee, Esther Duflo; Thinking Lab; 395 pp., 17,000 won Welfare has rapidly become a serious issue worldwide. But the disparity between the haves and have-nots is ever widening and how people perceive this issue also seems worlds apart. Are we aware of the acute problems of poverty? Some of us might feel it is far from the reality we face, as it sounds superficial. Authors Abhijit Vinayak Banerjee and Esther Duflo, both of who teach economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), have worked with the underprivileged for over 15 years in such countries as Morocco and India, spanning five continents to understand the problems of poverty and to find solutions. Through their work, Banerjee and Duflo look at some of the most surprising aspects of poverty — why the poor need to borrow in order to save, why they miss out on free life-saving immunizations but pay for drugs they do not need, why they start many businesses but do not grow any of them, and many other puzzling facts about living on less than 99 cents per day. The book tells readers that, despite the high awareness of welfare-related issues, people lack a proper understanding of poverty, which has led to years of failing anti-poverty policies. Additionally, the authors argue that to fight poverty takes patience, careful thinking and a willingness to learn from evidence. — RACHEL LEE

Obama stands firm on gun control despite long odds
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — President Barack Obama declared Monday on his first trip outside Washington to promote gun control that a consensus is emerging for universal background checks for purchasers, though he conceded a tough road lay ahead to pass an assault weapons ban over formidable opposition in Congress.
"We should restore the ban on military-style assault weapons and a 10-round limit for magazines," Obama said in a brief speech, standing firm on his full package on gun-control measures despite long odds. Such a ban "deserves a vote in Congress because weapons of war have no place on our streets or in our schools or threatening our law enforcement officers."
The president spoke from a special police operations center in a city once known to some as "Murderapolis" but where gun violence has dropped amid a push to address it from city leaders. Officers stood behind him, dressed in crisp uniforms of blue, white and brown.

We upper-crust must be discussed
In deferential accents.
We want not, waste, exhibit taste,
Possess exquisite tax-sense.
In France's terror we were there,
Our necks outstretched for ax-mince,
But here our dough's so long-ago
We've mostly been relaxed since.
We middle-crust of course are just
(Between two poles) the middle.
We see the pie up in the sky
And want our slice, but it'll
Take more than faith (the Profit saith)
For we to solve the riddle.
In short, a lot of us are not
Content with second fiddle.
Us lower-crust are full of lust
For wrestling, beer, and Nascar.
We live on crumbs but spend big sums
To find where bigger bass are.
If you like books we'll hate your looks
Our necks are red-must be inbred.
Who says there ain't no class war?

Echoes of Eternity
The Forgotten Goddess
Towards the end of 2005, I was disappointed to learn that Stockholm melo-thrash outfit Amaran had broken up. Their particular brand of melodic but aggressive thrash/death riffing working with a female vocalist (and by that I mean a singing vocalist) was fairly unusual and extremely enjoyable, and they had no immediate peers or successors to replace them. It appears that has changed with the full-length debut from Los Angeles' Echoes of Eternity. Through relying on a slightly sturdier and more aggressive thrash foundation, this act is very much of the same mold as Amaran and will satisfy those who lament that band's passing.
Though most bands who put out their debut album on Nuclear Blast these days aren't worth writing home about, Echoes of Eternity's quick intro to the big leagues reflects on their professionalism and ability. The Forgotten Goddess is a taut, mature metal album through and through. The songwriting here is very much of the early Metallica/Megadeth school of lengthy verse/chorus rock songs tricked out with tons of intros, bridges, breaks, and solos. Sam Young and Brandon Patton's guitar work has a crunchy, harmony-heavy melodeath edge, but their triplet-addicted riffing seems more rooted in thrash than anything else. Patton also puts his soloing chops on display with relative frequency; though he clearly has ability, the man is wise enough to keep his leads brief and rely on riff-writing to carry the music. Drummer Kirk Carrison helps to establish the aggressive tone of the music with his intensive double bass and willingness to push the songs into faster tempos (opener "Expressions of Flesh" being perhaps the best example). For her part, Francine Boucher is a capable and entertaining frontwoman. Her voice possesses a certain airy, ethereal quality that lends a slightly gothic flavor to the music, but fortunately it actually works as effective counterpoint to the busy riffing most of the time. A clean but slightly treble-heavy production from Eric Ryan wraps it all up in a nice, palatable package.
Though Echoes of Eternity don't fall immediately into any particular metal subgenre, The Forgotten Goddess should please a number of different interests. Looking for some angelic singing and catchy, dramatic choruses? Craving some sweet technical thrash riffing? Missing Amaran? This should hit the spot.

Stuttgart, Levante and Elche are all interested in taking Federico Macheda on loan from Manchester United.
The Italian striker is a long way down the pecking order at Old Trafford and has played just three matches this season.
The 22-year-old spent part of last season on loan at QPR but played just six matches, four of those as a substitute, without scoring.
Macheda also had a loan spell at Sampdoria the season before but failed to score in 14 appearances.
His last goal came in November 2011 during Manchester United's 2-1 Carling Cup defeat to Crystal Palace.
Macheda burst onto the scene in 2009 when he scored a last-minute winner against Aston Villa but he has scored just three league goals since then.
