Talking points: Just another wild day of ACC news
Posted November 28, 2012
1. The Atlantic Coast Conference presidents and chancellors held a teleconference Wednesday to discuss another round of league expansion in the wake of Maryland leaving for the Big Ten. Louisville got the nod over other schools trying to scramble out of the Big East, and is expected to arrive in 2014.
There was a time when Connecticut would have been acceptable for the ACC. The Huskies fit the desired profile that includes better academics and an expansion of the northeast footprint. The only issue? Connecticut wasn't going to improve the football product, which is all that matters at this point.
What Louisville lacks in academic talking points, a favorite of John Swofford, it makes up for in commitment to athletics. Stability is a fleeting concept in conference realignment, but the Cardinals are the better option for achieving it.
2. Regardless of what school the ACC decided to add, Swofford's most important play to keep the conference from dissolving will happen in a court of law. The conference filed a 10-page lawsuit Tuesday looking for a judge's stamp of approval of Maryland's $52,266,342 exit fee, which is three times the league's annual operating budget for the 2012-13 season.
Legally, Maryland can fight the fee and use provisions that wouldn't allow straight up penalties to be enforceable. The school could argue the approximate damages to the conference from their departure are significantly less than what was drawn up in the bylaws, which was based on an agreed formula back in September.
Swofford's goal is to make sure Maryland pays as much of that fee as possible. The attitude should be to take Maryland to court, drive up their legal costs and show that leaving just isn't worth the hassle.
3. North Carolina hung with Indiana for a decent chunk of their ACC/Big Ten Challenge contest in Bloomington, but the usual list of issues plaguing the Tar Heels caught up to them as the game progressed.
First off, North Carolina had no answer for Cody Zeller. It was fascinating to watch the Heels have a Zeller running the floor on them rather than the other way around. Indiana made matters worse by simply overpowering North Carolina underneath the basket with a series of monster dunks.
Right now, the Tar Heels are a flawed team without reliable scoring. The potential is there, but it's incumbent on players like James Michael McAdoo to get comfortable in their new roles and take over. In the meantime, fans just have to deal with the growing pains.
4. A moral victory for NC State? Sure, if you're into that sort of thing. The Wolfpack responded nicely to Michigan's offensive barrage and made it a game in the closing moments, but they missed an opportunity to improve their seeding in March.
There was a reason why local discussion of NC State was vastly different than the national narrative throughout the preseason. Buzz phrases like "cautiously optimistic" and "wait and see" were kicked around for a reason. The Wolfpack struggle when Calvin Leslie isn't engaged and Richard Howell gets into foul trouble. It would also help if Scott Wood knocked down a few more shots and developed a defensive identity.
The good news for NC State? The season just started and all their issues are fixable.
5. While NC State was playing basketball, the football coaching search chugged along and the first real candidate has emerged. The Monroe News-Star reported Louisiana Tech head coach Sonny Dykes, one of the hotter names on the carousel, was set to interview for the job Wednesday morning.
Combined with the news of an emergency Board of Trustees meeting set for later in the day, it appears Debbie Yow wasn't kidding when she stated time was of the essence.

We describe a cluster of four cases of invasive meningococcal disease that occurred on a cruise ship sailing along the Italian coast in October 2012. All four cases were hospitalised with severe illness and one of them died. This report illustrates the importance of rapid implementation of emergency control measures such as administration of prophylaxis to all crew members and passengers to prevent the spread of the disease in such a close environment.
We report a cluster of four cases of meningitis due to infection with serogroup C Neisseria meningitidis ST-11 clonal complex (cc) that occurred on a cruise ship sailing along the Italian coast in October 2012. Meningococcal serogroup C strains, (ST-11 cc) are known to cause invasive disease burden worldwide [1,2]. It is also known that these hyperinvasive strains are responsible for a high mortality rate among cases [3,4]. These strains caused several outbreaks in France between 2001 and 2003 that led to targeted vaccination campaigns [5,6].
In Italy, serogroup C is the second most common serogroup (16% of the 118 cases with a known serogroup in 2011 were caused by serogroup C infection) after the serogroup B (64% of the 118 cases with a known serogroup in 2011 were caused by serogroup B infection) [7]. Meningococci C ST-11 cc have been identified in Italy during the last five years and those characterised as C:P1.5-1,10-8:F3-6:ST-11, were responsible for both sporadic and outbreak-associated cases [8].
Cluster description
In early October 2012, four staff members of a cruise ship sailing on the Italian coast were hospitalised on the same day in a local hospital in Tuscany, with clinically suspected meningitis. The four cases were aged between 26 and 47 years and originated from three different countries and three continents. They were all crew members working in the kitchen. One of these four hospitalised patients died; no secondary cases have been reported among other persons present on the ship or among other contacts of the four cases, during the follow-up. Health authorities conducted interviews to determine the travel history of the cases and Naples was established as the last stop before the onset of symptoms. No common source of contamination could be identified during the investigations.
Laboratory investigation
One day after hospitalisation, the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of the four patients was examined by direct microscopy observation at the microbiology laboratory of the Livorno Hospital and the diagnosis of bacterial meningitis was established. Furthermore, on the same day, latex test and culture were performed in the same hospital, whereas serogroup C meningococci were confirmed by rapid molecular test at the Laboratory of the Paediatric Department, Meyer Hospital, University of Florence. The four N. meningitidis isolates identified, were sent to the National Reference Laboratory for Invasive Meningococcal Diseases of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità for serogroup confirmation, antimicrobials susceptibility and molecular typing characterisation.
In particular, multilocus sequence typing (MLST) [9] and sequencing of outer membrane proteins PorA and FetA were performed to define the clonal complex and the finetype, respectively; porB gene was also analysed. Variable number tandem repeats (VNTR) typing, using standardised procedures [10], was also carried out to further discriminate among strains. Sequence analysis of penA gene was used to determine the corresponding allele defining isolates with a decreased susceptibility to penicillin [11].
The molecular investigations showed that all strains were C:P1.5-1,10-8:F3-6:ST-11. The discriminatory power of MLST and antigen sequence typing highlighted that the four isolates clearly belonged to ST-11 cc, finetype P1.5-1, 10-8:F3-6. The porB allele was 2-2 for all of them. The VNTR analysis (data not shown) confirmed the presence of a unique profile among the four strains which was different from all the others found in ST-11 cc isolates circulating in Italy [12].
The antibiotic susceptibility assay showed a full susceptibility to rifampicin, ciprofloxacin, ceftriaxone and a decreased susceptibility to penicillin and ampicillin. The analysis of penA gene showed the presence of the same allele (248), often associated with a decreased susceptibility to penicillin (0.06<MIC≤1 mg/L) [13].
Control measures
On the hospital admission day of the four cases described above an alert was launched from the Maritime Port Health Offices of Livorno to the Ministry of Health which ensured rapid communication of this cluster to national and international health authorities for achieving a coordinated response and proper management of this public health event.
On the same day, as an emergency control measure, it was decided to administer chemoprophylaxis with ciprofloxacin to about 2,000 persons present on the ship (international passengers and crew members) before some people left.
In general, the management of meningococcal disease cases focuses on early recognition and antibiotic treatment to reduce case fatality rate and to control the spread of the disease. In the cluster described above, the prompt prophylaxis to all crew members and passengers, as an emergency control measure in such a close environment as a ship, ensured the meningococcal spread control. The rapid strain typing was essential to assess the link among isolates and to highlight the circulation of hyper-invasive ST-11 meningococci.

text: Tug teammates together again By Rick Ryan June 13, 2013 Story Share Chris Dorst Mikey Newsome (left) and Austin Brewer played together at Tug Valley, will be teammates tonight in the North-South All-Star Basketball Classic and will join forces at UC in the fall. CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- The city of Charleston has been a pretty nice place for Austin Brewer and Mikey Newsome the last couple of years.The Tug Valley guard duo led their team to a Class AA basketball championship at the Civic Center in 2012 and followed that up with a Class A title last March after the school dropped a division.They also won a No. 1 vs. No. 2 showdown game against defending Class A state champion Charleston Catholic during the "Shootout at the Big House,'' a one-day Civic Center showcase in February. Then earlier this spring, each committed to playing at the University of Charleston.They get another shot at hoops success in the Kanawha Valley tonight when they compete in the North-South All-Star Basketball Classic at the South Charleston Community Center. Tipoff is set for about 7:30.Brewer and Newsome, both first-team all-staters, will suit up for the South squad tonight, continuing a longtime relationship on the court."We kind of knew we wanted to go together,'' Newsome said. "We've been together since we was 5 years old. We're just such a good couple together. I've told everybody this, that out of all the players in the state of West Virginia, I would rather play with Austin than anybody.''Brewer said that UC coach Mark Downey started to watch him play during his junior season at Tug, then also began to keep an eye on Newsome. "They was interested in me,'' Brewer said, "and came to watch a few of our games last year. This year, they started to say they was wanting me and watching me all year, then ended up wanting Mikey, too. So it made it kind of easier for us to make a decision and stay together."If we had a chance to [stay together], we was going to do it because it made it a lot easier. We wanted to stay together if we could, and that worked out good for us.''The 6-foot-2 Brewer was one of the Panthers' tallest athletes, but wound up playing a lot of point guard - his true position - and the spot he'll be looked at with the Golden Eagles. He averaged 15.1 points, eight rebounds and six assists as a senior. Newsome, meanwhile, was Tug's long-range shooter and led the team in scoring as both a senior (17.8) and junior (17.4) during those championship runs.The Mingo County tandem realizes there is the potential for playing time on UC's roster following the dismissal of guards Terrell Lipkins and Robbie Dreher and forward Quincy Washington after the trio was charged following a robbery in downtown Charleston in April."They have some openings because of the incident that happened there,'' Newsome said. "We're still going to go there with the same mindset that we'll take the winning attitude that we had at Tug Valley to the University of Charleston.''Tug Valley made a bit of history in March when it became the first public school to capture a Class A boys basketball title since another Mingo County school, Williamson, turned the trick in 2001.The Panthers, however, were fed a steady diet of AAA and AA schools on their schedule the past two seasons to challenge players like Brewer and Newsome, and it paid off handsomely with a pair of championships. Now the Tug tandem would like to show fans around the state that, hey, Class A's got talent, too."This is just a huge opportunity,'' Brewer said, "and we're just going to come up here and have fun, and just show everybody that single-A can compete with double-A and triple-A. We're just going to give it our all and have fun while we do it.''Newsome concurred."We kinda got a chip on our shoulder being in the single-A division,'' he said. "We want to show everybody we can play with anybody in the state.''Reach Rick Ryan at 304-348-5175 or email@example.com.

Truecrypt encrypted USB drive on Linux
I have an Truecrypt encrypted USB thumb drive that works fine under Windows. I have successfully accessed files that were encrypted on other USB drives that were in standard FAT format.
The problem is that the encrypted drive is not seen by Linux (tried this on Ubuntu 8.10 and a Fedora 10 systems). The device /dev/sdb1 is mounted when I plug in a FAT formatted USB drive, but even that is not there when I plug in the encrypted USB drive.
Without a drive name to enter into the Truecrypt user interface, I can't decrypt and access the drive.
The question boils down to: How to access a non-FAT formatted USB device on Linux?
Thanks, Ira
Good question; I'm only guessing that the automounting under Ubuntu and Fedora assumes a FAT system; hence when you plug in a FAT system it's is mounted as /dev/sdb1.
These links might help:
It looks like you have to look in /dev/mapper for the virtual volume; I haven't gotten around to using TrueCrypt under linux yet, so I can't help you further, but I suspect the command "truecrypt" has mount options..
TrueCrypt has the ability to create a virtual filesystem that is simply a large file on any regular drive. I use this between linux and windows and it had worked very well for me.
- Jim
This problem appears to be my USB Thumb Drive
I "gave up" and went on a Windows system and reformatted my 8 GB Corsair USB drive and then created a 4 GB encrypted file on that drive.
Plugging this into my Ubuntu laptop I noticed that Linux didn't recognize the USB drive at all, even though it was a well formatted Windows drive.
I then remembered that I unsuccessfully tried to create a bootable Linux on this USB drive before and was unable to boot from on on a couple of desktop machines.
The problem appears to be a problem with the USB drive and non-Windows XP systems. Is the fact that it is > 4 GB the cause of the problem? Why can Windows see the drive but Linux (and some desktop Bios') can't?
I will try the encrypted USB drive on another thumb drive and see what Linux does with that.
A Kingston 1GB USB drive works fine as an encrypted entire drive
So, the problem is either with the Corsair drive, or because it is an 8GB drive. It is the only USB drive that I have at the moment that is bigger than 1GB. So I can't tell the cause yet.
Has anyone else had problems with 8GB (or beyond) drives and Linux? Or with Corsair drives and Linux?
- Jim
I used FAT32 formatting on XP
But, the format shouldn't make a difference as the drive itself wasn't even recognized as something plugged into the USB port.
XP doesn't seem to give me the option of NTFS formatting on the USB drive.
I have used an 8GB memory stick on Linux before without any issues, although it wasn't a Corsair.
Have you checked that the Corsair drive is compatible with Linux?
The problem and fix is with the inq_timeout
The fix was to add:
echo 30 > /sys/module/scsi_mod/parameters/inq_timeout
in an rc startup script. (I placed mine in /etc/rc2.d/S99usb_inq_timeout.
Now the Corsair USB device can be seen by Linux and I can mount it or use Truecrypt to create/access a fully encrypted USB drive.
Some suggestions on the web included:
or in /etc/modprobe.conf
options usb_storage delay_use=20
That didn't work for me. (I didn't try 30, though.) Others also stated that the /etc/modprobe.conf fix didn't work for them either.
From the website: http://www.asktheramguy.com/v3/showthread.php?t=73036
See bugzilla #11640
Whenever you create multiple partitions or a non fat(32) file system in a partition on the stick the inquiry of the stick timeouts. The default linux timeout is set for 5 secs, and the stick takes 14.5 seconds. So if you set the timeout to 15 seconds or more, and reinsert the stick, the stick should be mountable and readable. Just remember to add this to your boot scripts, or repeat it every time you reboot the kernel.
The inquiry timeout can be set to 15 sec with the following command line:
echo 15 >/sys/module/scsi_mod/parameters/inq_timeout
Or if you prefer the grub command line is :
I hope this longer timeout will someday be standard for the kernel. Or maybe part of an exception list when a prolific 2528 stick is detected.
But, still can't boot from the Corsair drive
Probably due to the inq_timeout, but I don't know how to tell the BIOS to wait longer. That's OK, I will use other USB drives for my portable OS instantiations.

Sometimes a community comes together to achieve a common goal.
Take the Vietnamese residents of an enclave of City Heights known informally as Little Saigon.
For the fourth straight year, volunteers have lined the parking lot of Hoover High School with 6,000 lanterns as they invite the rest of San Diego to the area they call home.
The silk lanterns, different colors, large and small, some shaped as lilies and others as gems, came handmade from the ancient city of Hoi An, Vietnam.
San Diego Lantern Festival
When: 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday
Lanterns: Lit at sundown
Where: Hoover High School, 4474 El Cajon Blvd., San Diego, 92115
Tickets: Children $3; adults $5
Phone: (858) 880-7338
Online: sdlanternfestival.com
The weekend is called the San Diego Lantern Festival, but the hope is that the impression lasts well beyond Sunday. It's part of an effort to turn a stretch of City Heights into a bustling, vibrant community known officially as Little Saigon.
"We feel like the Vietnamese people have been here, they have brought little Saigon with them," said Frank Vuong, who co-heads the San Diego Little Saigon Foundation. "Little Saigon basically exists in their hearts, in their businesses, in their minds."
Vuong, 33, said the lantern festival comes from the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival in Vietnam, a celebration of the harvest. It is considered the children's new year, which traditionally includes kids carrying lanterns in Vietnam as part of the festivities.
The area around El Cajon Boulevard from Highland Avenue to Euclid Avenue is home to about 7,000 Vietnamese people, many settling here as refugees after the Vietnam War ended in 1975, Vuong said.
The lanterns surround carnival rides, food stands, and vendors. The event prompted Brian and Susmita Duncan of Eastlake to bring their daughter, Vesper, 3, to the festival on Saturday.
"I haven't been to a lantern festival before, it's something new," Susmita said, noting her family has attended events on nearby Adams Avenue.
About 100 Vietnamese high school students from City Heights set up the event. Ann Huynh, 16, a resident of the area who attends Serra High School in Tierrasanta, was working one of the raffle booths. She said she has a hard time getting her friends to come visit because they have a misperception that the area is unsafe. That's why she was glad to see people like the Duncans coming in from other parts of the county.
"This place is not known for being the best place but it's really not as bad as people say. I enjoy living here," she said. "For them to be enjoying it, that means a lot to me because that's their first impression."
Vuong, originally from Saigon, said the foundation earlier this year requested the area be officially designated Little Saigon Commercial and Cultural District from the San Diego City Council. It has not yet been formally considered. Vuong said he believes it will take that recognition to keep people from moving out of the area as soon as they become successful.
"We want to reverse that trend," he said. "Infuse life into it, give people a chance for them to say, 'Hey, I'm going to grow up here, I'm going to raise my kid here, have my kid go to Hoover High School,' reinvest in their own community."Copyright © 2017, The San Diego Union-Tribune

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer.
Update: I figured out the judgement should be recorded on line 18 of schedule b - personal property. But I have another question (last one I promise!):
We have a security deposit for our current home with our landlord. Is it necessary for me to include this on schedule c - property claimed as exempt? I don't know if the trustee can take that money from us if we don't actually have it, our landlord does. But I want to make sure its filed as exempt if it needs to be. Am I making any sense here? :-)
I live in the state of Illinois and I had it listed under the wildcard exemption.
I know I have to list it on schedule b but I was not sure if it was to my benefit to list it as exempt or not. I just didn't want to omit it from schedule c and then the trustee ask us to pay him, (since we don't even have it, ,our landlord does)

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Coal doesn't know if it will vote for President Obama in November. That's what the headline probably should have said, but the Republican National Committee's Wednesday
email blast made it appear that Democrats have scuffled to the sideline in supporting Obama for 2012.
"Democrat Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin
of West Virginia said he -- like Sen. Joe Manchin, (D., W.V.) -- does not know if he will vote for President Barack Obama or Republican Mitt Romney in the fall," said the email, which quoted a Charleston Daily Mail story. A second excerpt of the story quotes Tomblin criticizing Obama for making it his mission to drive the coal and energy industry in West Virginia out of business. Companies like Arch Coal ( ACI), Patriot Coal ( PCX) and Alpha Natural Resources ( ANR) -- which all have major Appalachia coal mining operations in West Virginia -- each have seen shares shrink by 41.4%, 31.1% and 19.8% year to date, respectively, largely due to incredibly cheap natural gas prices. "We have a supply of natural gas that can last America nearly 100 years," Obama said during his January State of the Union address. "The development of natural gas will create jobs and power trucks and factories that are cleaner and cheaper, proving that we don't have to choose between our environment and our economy." Politicians in West Virginia, fearful of what the rapidly sinking coal industry could mean to jobs in the state, are timid to endorse an energy policy that backs gradual transition by utility companies to the industry (natural gas) that's wrecking things. "I suspect if natural gas prices are close to what they currently are for one, two years more, you're going to start to see some coal bankruptcies over there." said Mike Tian, an equity analyst who covers coal for Morningstar Cheaper natural gas prices give utilities and other businesses an incentive to invest in the hydrocarbon gas mixture instead of coal. But for Democratic politicians in West Virginia it's an awkward high-wire act. On the one hand -- and why Tomblin and Manchin have avoided open endorsement of the president -- it may appear to voters there that Obama, who has endorsed an energy plan to shift to natural gas and away from dirty coal, is the perpetrator of a waning West Virginia industry. Conversely, Obama is the most important figure in the party and can offer future key endorsements to the two politicians.

What should I ask my doctor during a liposuction consultation?
Liposuction Surgeon Consultation
Doctor Answers 18
During lipo consultation, ask about training and see pictures of their own patients
This is a great question. Many doctors out there advertise liposuction. Additionally, many companies have come up with fancy names for different types of liposuction.
- The first thing to ask your doctor is about his or her training. Plastic surgeons have specific core training in liposuction techniques. Additionally, some plastic surgeons go on for extra fellowship training specifically in aesthetic plastic surgery which includes liposuction. Many other doctors in different specialities take weekend courses in liposuction and then offer it in their practices. So, please ask your doctor specifically about their training.
- The next thing to ask is about the type of liposuction they perform. Different types of liposuction are good for different types of people. For instance, if you have just minor areas that require small volumes of suction, then a procedure such as Smart Lipo may be best for you. However, if you are like most people and require a moderate to large volume of liposuction, then traditional tumescent liposuction is best. New advances in traditional liposuction such as power-assisted liposuction, make this procedure even more effective. If you have redundant skin and tissue, then you may need a combination procedure such as liposuction and mini-abdominoplasty or tummy tuck.
- The next thing to ask your doctor is to see pictures of their actual patients or to talk to some of their previous patients. Many doctors have become very savvy at marketing or have great marketing companies working for them. If you look at their websites, they use stock photos which are not their real patients. Have them pull up their website during your consultation and ask them which patients are actually theirs.
- Next, ask your doctor where the liposuction will be performed. Many doctors perform liposuction in their offices while the patient is awake and other doctors perform liposuction in an operating room while the patient is under anesthesia. If you are having minor liposuction, then the office based procedure may be appropriate. However, ask your doctor about the certifications for their office-based procedures and what contingency plans they have in case something goes wrong.
- Also, ask them if they use an anesthesiologist or if they do the anesthesia themselves. Next, ask your doctor about follow-up care. Make sure that your surgeon will be the one seeing you in follow-up.
- Inquire about post-operative garments, medications, exercises, and ability to return to work.
Liposuction is a great operation and, when performed properly, has great results. It can be intimidating trying to filter through all of the information out there about liposuction. In the end, make sure all of your questions are answered and that you feel comfortable with your surgeon before you have surgery. I hope this is helpful.
Ask many questions during liposuction consultation.
You should seek a board-certified plastic surgeon to perform your liposuction procedure. A nice place to start is at www.surgery.org, the website for The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. During your consultation, ask your surgeon about their training, experience, experience with different modalities, type of anesthesia, operating room facility and staff, their safety record and precautions taken, etc.
Liposuction Consultation Ask about Training and Experience
Liposuction, as you may have heard in the popular media, is the most commonly performed surgical procedure each year in the United States. Here's a statistic that you may not have heard: the majority of physicians performing liposuction in the United States are not plastic surgeons; in fact, many do not have any formal surgical training whatsoever. It seems hard to believe, but many physicians performing liposuction have had no more training in liposuction than a 'weekend course'. One way to determine whether or not a physician has had appropriate training in a particular surgery is to confirm that they have hospital privileges for that procedure.
I fear that some practitioners view liposuction as a 'simple' surgery, since it does not involve making large incisions, and it requires little, if any, suturing. Nothing could be further from the truth. Liposuction, in my mind, is a very challenging operation that requires careful planning and preparation, and a great deal of care and finesse when it is actually performed. It requires a three-dimensional understanding of the layers of human anatomy, an understanding that is second nature to a surgeon alone. I think that it is often an inadequate understanding of anatomy (and, perhaps, of the body's response to surgery) which leads to the poor results in liposuction and body contouring that unfortunately are so often seen.
It is important that your physician has hospital priveleges for the procedure you are interested in having performed. A hospital has access to information and records that the general public does not. Hospitals also have tremendous exposure to liability for cosmetic surgery procedures performed within them. They therefore will only grant surgical privileges to physicians that can demonstrate appropriate training and experience.
Although many aesthetic cosmetic surgery procedures are not performed in hospital operating rooms, the fact that a hospital has granted a surgeon privileges for a given procedure ensures that the surgeon has met an accepted standard of competence. It also means that your surgeon will be able to take care of you at a hospital should any complications from cosmetic surgery arise.
During your consultation ask your surgeon the number of liposuction cases they perform each month, ask to see many many before and after photos and I always suggest speaking to previous patients. It is imperative to always check with the medical board in your state as part of your research.
If you are planning to have cosmetic surgery performed, you should do your due diligence to determine if your surgeon has the appropriate credentials. This issue can be settled by the following simple question: Does my surgeon have hospital privileges to perform my cosmetic surgery?

Liposuction consultation
The first and most important question to ask is regarding your surgeon's training. He or she should be board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and have experience with liposuction. Unfortunately, in this day and age, there are many doctors or practitioners performing liposuction who lack the sufficient training or who did their training in other specialties. The next question is to assure you are a good candidate for liposuction. If you have loose or hanging skin over the area of concern then liposuction alone is not the answer. Once it is established that you are a good candidate for liposuction you should ask which type of liposuction your surgeon recommends. Finally, make sure you have a good understanding regarding your aftercare and restrictions. Good luck!

Best Liposuction Questions
The BEST LIPOSUCTION QUESTIONS: Am I a good candidate for liposuction and what are my risks?, What kind of results can I expect?, Are you a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon?, Can I see your before and after photos?, How many of these liposuction procedures have you done this year?, Which technique of liposuction will you use?, What type of anesthesia and is the anesthesiologist Board Certified?, Where will you perform my liposuction procedure and which hospitals are you on staff? What will my recovery time and post operative experience be like? Make sure you write down your questions and bring them with you on your consultation. Above all, make sure that you are satisfied with the surgeon's answers before you proceed.

Liposuction Consultation
First, I would make sure that my surgeon is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with the American Society of Plastic Surgerons. ( ASPS). Second, ask which hospitals that he has operating privileges. This is very important. Hospitals will not staff surgeons that are not board certified in their specialty. Liposuction is a surgical procedure, and should be treated as so. Third, do you feel comfortable with your surgeon and his staff? This is important as you will have questions and follow-up visits. Discuss your expectations and the surgeons. Good communication is very important when embarking on surgery. Good luck and stay informed.
Question for liposuction consultation
Listen first. Question last. Good surgeons will answer your questions before you ask them.
My 5 steps to evaluate your surgeon:
- Ask for the surgeon's CV (curriculum vitae). What is his/her training?
- Office should be clean, staff polite, examination thorough. Modesty respected. Photos should exclude face and private areas.
- Does the surgeon give you a written plan and explain his/her recommendations.
- Does the surgeon review your medical history, ask your goals, explain complications?
- Then ask the difference between tumescent, suction assisted, ultrasonic, Microaire and laser liposuction, which applies to you and why.
Liposuction Consultation
The basis of a liposuction consultation is the bond of mutual trust that develops between the surgeon and the patient. The patient must ensure that the surgeon has the requisite training, experience, expertise, and understanding of your objectives. The surgeon must trust that the patient understands the procedure and will comply with the preoperative preparation and the postoperative care. The patient should ask questions to clarify their role in the process.

The prize at the 80th running of the Ohio derby at Thistledown was triple what it was last year, meaning today's winner took home $300,000.
Florida-based East Hall took home the prize, pulling ahead of Jessica's Star to win the race.
East Hall competed against 10 other horses including Almost Famous who was ridden by a 3-time Kentucky Derby winning jockey.
"It was an exciting day at ThistleDown," said Patrick Ellsworth, racing secretary at ThistleDown. "A large crowd braved a little bit of rain to pack the apron and enjoy our signature race, which had its largest and most impressive field in 15 years."
ThistleDown reopened on April 9, 2013 as a racino following an $89 million renovation that added a gaming floor with more than 1,000 VLT gaming machines. Included in the renovation was a $1 million upgrade to the wagering floor for races.
The racing season at Thistledown will continue until November 16.

Old Navy might not be the biggest retailer on the block, but it is among the most beloved.
In fact, a survey by the National Retail Federation says Old Navy's website is shoppers' ninth most preferred e-commerce site. That places it ahead of Sears, Nordstrom, Home Depot and even my personal favorite, Costco.
Think of Old Navy as the younger, more affordable sibling to Gap and Banana Republic — all three are owned by parent company, Gap Inc. Old Navy is popular with those who keep a close eye on their wallets. In addition to its reasonable price tags, the retailer is known for its family friendly selection.
Following are seven ways to save at Old Navy, whether you're shopping online or in-store.
1. Add the Old Navy credit card to your wallet
If you shop regularly at Old Navy or affiliated brands, it might make sense to open a credit card account with the store. When you do so, you'll receive 15 percent off your next purchase!
Using the Visa-branded card also allows you to rack up rewards — five points for every $1 spent at Old Navy, Gap, Banana Republic or Athleta, plus one point for every dollar you spend elsewhere. In addition, you'll receive 500 extra rewards points if you agree to a paperless statement.
Once you accumulate 500 rewards points, you get a $5 reward that you can redeem at any of the aforementioned stores. If you earn 5,000 in rewards in a single year, you qualify for "Navyist" status. That grants you additional benefits, including:
- 20 percent extra rewards points each quarter
- Free shipping on any online purchase
- Free basic alterations on Banana Republic purchases
2. Look for drastic sales
Every so often, Old Navy will have a sale when a certain item will be dirt cheap. For example, the retailer has offered $1 flip-flops or $2 scarves.
There is no telling when the next great offer might arrive, so keep your eyes peeled. Or better yet, follow the advice in the next entry on this list so you'll be alerted when the sales are scheduled.
3. Join the Old Navy email list
Join the Old Navy email mailing list, and you will save a whopping 30 percent off your next purchase. In addition, you will be alerted to new products and special offers as they are released.
Add your birthday at sign-up and you will get a special gift on your big day. Are you an Old Navy cardholder? If so, you will receive up to 500 reward points when you join the retailer's email list.
4. Sign up for mobile text alerts
All you need to score the next deal is a text-enabled cellphone. Register to receive mobile text alerts from Old Navy — officially known as joining the "ONtourage" — and you will get $5 off your next purchase of $35 or more.
5. Request a price adjustment
If you buy something at Old Navy and subsequently see the retailer offering the same item for a lower price, you can ask for a one-time price adjustment. The offer is good for 14 days after you purchase your item. According to Old Navy:
If your purchase is eligible for a price adjustment, we refund you the difference in your original form of payment, such as the credit card you used.
Exclusions apply, so be sure to check the website before requesting your price break.
6. Shop through a cash-back site
When you shop through one of these sites, you will earn cash back after you make a purchase. For example, sign up at cash-back site Ebates. Then, go to Old Navy through the Ebates link to shop.
Recently, Ebates offered 2 percent cash back on all Old Navy purchases. Even better, if you sign up at Ebates you will now get cash back even if you make your purchase in the store rather than online.
Find out more about this new feature by going to the Ebates home page and clicking on the button that says "The cash back you love, now in store."
7. Buy discount gift cards
Finally, you can save a bit more on your Old Navy merchandise by purchasing discounted gift cards at sites like Raise and Cardpool. Recently, Raise offered Old Navy gift cards for up to 10 percent off, while Cardpool offered discounts of up to 11 percent.

Without a doubt, 2015 was full of variety when we talk about games. Not only that we received games of which we have waited for years (Fallout 4) but we were impressed with some titles of which we didn't have big expectations (like Rocket League and Life is Strange).
And of course there were games in which we put our hopes and they lived up to our expectations (The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt).
Here are two of the best games of 2015:
Fallout 4
Someone said that: "You cannot call yourself a gamer if you haven't played Fallout 3", and this because Fallout 3 is a pillar in gaming. Fallout fans appreciated the series for those reasons: atmosphere, story, high graphics and soundtrack. Fallout 4 has the same mixture with post apocalyptic atmosphere, many more interesting characters, a very good story line, a visual graphics that lives up to 2015, a complex building system, more customizable weapons, a good PC optimization and a great soundtrack. Seems like the perfect game. So we agree with the phrase: "You cannot call yourself a gamer if you haven't searched all the wasteland from Fallout 4″.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Without a doubt, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is one of the best games of this year and the best RPG game of the year. Wild Hunt includes more open-world maps, a new story with major themes which includes family and the consequences of war, new characters, hard decisions to make, all of this besides many more secondary missions. We didn't even talk about the graphics and audio of the game, which they are superb.
Give them a try if you haven't. With Steam Winter Sale you can get good deals for those games.

Just when I think I've come up with a really tough Recast, you guys manage to wow me once again. I really thought last week's "The Cosby Show" challenge would be hard, since the series was on for eight seasons and had a large cast ranging from grade-school to middle-age.
But again, there were so many great entries I had trouble choosing a winner. I loved Happygirlhehe's choice of Bernie Mac to play Dr. Huxtable with Dee Dee Davis (Baby Girl on "The Bernie Mac Show") as Rudy. I was also tempted by Pinkrabbit's Wayne Brady pick for Cliff. But the best overall cast list came from Chancleta, so congrats to her for winning this week's challenge! To see her picks and a "new" cast photo,
Chancleta's "Cosby Show" Cast:
Dr. Cliff Huxtable — Denzel Washington
Clair Huxtable — Angela Bassett
Sondra — Ashanti
Denise — Zoe Kravitz (daughter of Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz)
Theo — Nick Cannon
Vanessa — Keke Palmer
Rudy — China Anne McClain (Daddy's Little Girls)

I've been sitting with this song for about two weeks, hoping that if I just keep listening, somehow these words will sink into the little crevasses of my brain that control basic understanding of language and somehow start to make sense. The song is called "Góða tungl," and according to Google Translate that means "good moon," but beyond that the words mean nothing to me. The press release says that "the lyrics are culled from nineteenth century Icelandic poems," but I'm starting to realize that it doesn't even matter. This song is one of the best things I've heard in a while.

The 61 ready-to-use games in Games for the Whole Child are fun-but with a purpose. And that purpose is what makes this book both unique and valuable.
The book is designed to promote physical activity (both now and in the future) through games that simultaneously meet the unique physical, social, emotional, and cognitive needs of students in grades K-8. Used cumulatively, the variety of games will help you meet all the newest NASPE (National Association for Sport and Physical Education) standards. With these games in hand, educators can employ a holistic, "whole child learning" approach, and that is what sets this book apart.
The games are presented in five categories: warm-ups, skill practice, fitness, sport games, and group initiatives. Beyond being fun and helping you to meet all the NASPE standards, these games serve the following purposes:
Games for the Whole Child teaches children that movement is enjoyable and that games, exercise, and fun are not mutually exclusive. It promotes self-efficacy and an "I can" attitude. And it motivates students to be active, to grow, and to respect differences in abilities and growth. The games challenge students at all ability levels and in all aspects of development.
Physical educators, recreation leaders, and after-school leaders and teachers will love the research-supported approach that this book uses. Students will enjoy the games. Best of all, they will build skills in areas that are crucial to their overall development.

The bus driver had pulled over due to an asthma attack. She were unable to speak or drive. This great young person got on the radio with the bus company and talked to dispatch who then was in contact with 911. They were able to send rescue along with another driver for the students. There are some really good kids still out there and if not for the student, god only knows what might have happened. Durham Bus Services would like to thank Jayden and all the students that helped today!"

FRIDAY, July 13 (HealthDay News) -- Real-time emergency room triage decisions by paramedics agree with the triage decisions of emergency residents about half the time, according to a study published in the July issue of the Journal of Emergency Nursing.
Fatih Ozan Kahveci, M.D., from the Karaelmas University Hospital in Zonguldak, Turkey, and colleagues analyzed the agreement of triage decisions between paramedics and emergency residents using the three-level (3L) triage scale and the five-level (5L) Australian triage scale. Data were analyzed for 731 patients who presented to a central triage area of an emergency department and urgent care center of a university teaching hospital in Turkey during a one-week period.
The researchers found that the agreement between triage decisions was 47 percent for the 3L triage scale and 45 percent for the 5L triage scale. In the triage area the admitting time and waiting time were consistent. There was a robust correlation between the patient's general condition and both triage scales.
"We found that a real-time triage evaluation elicited a lower level of agreement than did paper-based scenarios, probably because the major limitation of written scenarios is the lack of visual and aural cues associated with real patients," Kahveci and colleagues conclude. "A new triage scale may be necessary for untrained personnel so that all emergency departments can conduct simple triage."

Kix is an American glam metal band who achieved its popularity in the late 1980s and early 1990s. They were considered one of Maryland's top cover bands prior to their signing with Atlantic Records in 1981. Though considered by many to be glam metal, the bands pop-metal style drew inspiration from bubblegum pop and new wave as well as hard rock.
In 1981, they released their self-titled debut album, Kix, featuring "Atomic Bombs", "Heartache", "Contrary Mary", "The Itch", and "The Kid". "Love at First Sight" instantly became a concert favorite. "Kix Are for Kids" creatively merged the name of the band with two popular cereals of the 1960s and 1970s, Kix and the Trix Rabbit. "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah" became the band's most popular concert song, always with a unique ad-lib performance by lead vocalist Steve Whiteman. With this album, the rock and roll style of Kix was established.
Queensrÿche first burst onto the music scene in 1982 with the release of their self-titled 4 song EP "Queensrÿche". They very quickly gained international recognition and performed to sold out audiences around the world. With the follow up first full length album "The Warning" in 1984, and the ground breaking 1986 release of "Rage For Order", Queensrÿche continued to prove their worldwide dominance as one of the most respected and creative bands of the 80's.

PRZOOM - /newswire/ -
Singapore, Singapore, 2012/03/14 - After almost a year in development Calibre Business Consultancy (CBC) a subsidiary of WJ International Consultancy Consortium unveiled the first ever mobile ready business directory InSingapore.mobi on March 1.
Dr Watson Goh, CBCs owner, has been working behind the scenes with programmers since June of last year to bring Singapore, the newest innovation in website technology to help local businesses capitalize on the emerging growth smart phone Internet users.
In a poll conducted last year by the Pew Internet and American Life Project it was shown that 38% of all US cell phone users access the Internet via their cell phones daily. Facebook recently reported that of their now 500 million users almost one-third of the posts to the social network are coming from mobile phones. "When you think about it there are three things everyone carries with them when they leave their homes now, their wallet or pocket book, keys to their car and their cell phone" said Mr. Roberts,"you see it everywhere you go now - people constantly staying connected by either text messaging or smart phone web browsing."
"It's been our goal since day one of this project to offer local area businesses a mobile ready listing that a smart phone Internet user can at the click of a button dial the business directly and also to get exact driving directions to their place of business" said a CBC staff member. "Less than 1% of all websites online today are mobile ready, with this mobile ready business directory we are bridging that gap here in this area."
Smart phones are readily available to everyone now that most of the major cell providers are offering them as incentives for service subscriptions and plan upgrades. According to a CNN Tech Christmas wish list survey for 2010 smart phones came in at #3 with the Apple iPad being the number one request from last year's Christmas wish list.
"CBC has been providing marketing and promotion consultation since 2011 on ways for small businesses to promote themselves with non-traditional outside-the-box strategies." said Dr Watson Goh,"We've recognized for over two years the growing trend of mobile phone and Internet usage here in Singapore, but the cost of marketing through this new medium up until now was just out of reach of most small businesses."
CBC Mobile Media business directory (insingapore.mobi) will provide a complete mobile ready business listing that will help local businesses to be more readily found by today's mobile Internet users. While most businesses may not have mobile ready websites they can now be found in this growing market of smart phone owners looking for quick and easy access to information on products and services through the CBC.mobi website come Mar 2012.
Calibre Business Consultancy (CBC) was founded in 2011 on the principal of helping local small businesses to promote their businesses in the most cost efficient means possible. Unlike traditional consulting and marketing companies CBC prides ourselves on "thinking outside of the box" to provide unique ways of helping businesses brand themselves and ultimately gain a loyal customer base.
