The past can be a tricky thing. One moment you think you've completely got it beat, and the next thing you know it creeps up on you like a phantom in the night.
Now, despite what the title above may allude to, this week's episode of Grey's Anatomy is in no way Star Wars related. (Sorry folks) But while there are no Darth Vaders or Jedi Masters in sight, there was still plenty of menacing to be had. While Arizona fought to deal with the pain from a limb that no longer exists, Meredith attempted to face some ghostly demons of her own. Oh, and then there's that whole hospital bankruptcy dilemma. So let's Sith sift through all the drama and see what we can find. May the force be with us!
Talk to the Hand: You'd think that after spending months and months away from the OR, Derek would be inclined to take it a little easy his first time back, right? Wrong! This is Grey's Anatomy people! Derek takes his refurbished, fully functional hand or, as Callie prefers to call it, her hand and performs a 23-hour long (successful) procedure on a patient. Way to take things slow, Doc.
Limb-It Less: Meanwhile, Arizona starts experiencing what's known as a "phantom limb," where she continually feels a painful sensation where her amputated leg used to be, almost as if it's still there. And what started off as Texas Chainsaw Massacre-type nightmares about the pain begins to stem into the waking hours as well and begins to affect her in the workplace (kind of a problem when you're a surgeon, wouldn't ya say?). Thankfully, Owen lends her a hand (though she'd probably much rather prefer a leg, but oh well) and tries different techniques to help keep the pain at bay. None of them prove to be that helpful that is, until Alex stabs her prosthetic foot with a scalpel right in the middle of surgery. Whatever works, I guess!
Liver Alone: Thanks to the joys of pregnancy, Meredith has now become a full-fledged pain in the ass yelling at everyone in sight and then proceeding to cry at the drop of a hat. So when Dr. Shane accidentally ruins the liver needed to save the life of Meredith's mother-to-be patient, it pretty much turns into an emotional rollercoaster. Luckily, another liver quickly becomes available (convenient, right?), but the only problem is it's in Portland, which is a 50-minute plane ride away. Obviously, this is the last thing Meredith wants to do given that her last flight didn't end so well. But since a patient's life hung in the balance, she managed to face her fear and successfully retrieved the liver. Way to go, Mer!
Cut It Out: Now that Seattle Grace is facing potential bankruptcy thanks to the costly lawsuit settlement, Owen recruits a Physician's Advisor to help figure out where to trim the hospital's budget. So after a lot of speculation and creepy hovering, the advisor suggests that their best move would be to cut the ER. Naturally, this idea didn't go over too smoothly to the fellow doctors, especially since they pride themselves on being a Level 1 trauma center. Plus, how do you run a hospital without an ER? Is that even possible? And now that Mercy West merged with Seattle Grace, where would all the emergency cases get sent to? Obviously, there are still a lot of problems to weed out and nothing's been officially decided yet. But from a plotline's standpoint it doesn't sound like a good idea. Grey's just wouldn't be Grey's without subjecting fans to insanely weird (but highly creative) medical disasters. However, Bailey actually defended the idea and snapped at Derek for berating it. "Do you have a better idea? Because the way I see it, this woman is trying to keep the hospital open." She then further stoked the fire by remarking that not all of them have a few million to fall back on if the hospital goes belly-up. She's got ya there, McMoney.
What did you think of this week's episode? Do you think the ER will really get the axe? Was Bailey's outburst a hint at how the hospital will eventually resolve its financial crisis? Will/Should the plaintiffs give back the money they won in order to save Seattle Grace? Sound off on your dissections and opinions in the comments below!

Residential elevators are in many newer homes. They're not just for the rich. With an aging population and houses built up, not out, elevators are becoming more common.
The convenience could pose a dangerous risk for children. What the FOX5 I-Team uncovered was so alarming the insurance commissioner said he wants to do something.
Georgia State Insurance Commissioner Ralph Hudgens said what happened to toddler Jacob Helvey should not happen to another child.
The Helveys had a residential elevator installed for an elderly, live-in relative who couldn't manage the stairs. They loved it until Christmas Eve four years ago. Jacob Helvey's day started with playing, thinking of santa, but it ended with brain damage after he was crushed by the family's home elevator.
Brandi Helvey ran upstairs and in that short time, Jacob opened the elevator's hallway door and got in, but he never opened the cab's accordion gate. So this left him trapped between the two doors.
The family believes the toddler was crushed once the elevator started moving.
Brandi ran downstairs - pulled open the locked elevator door in the hallway to find her toddler trapped. The family says they assumed like a commercial elevator it wouldn't move if there was a problem.
Insurance commissioner Ralph Hudgens plans to get a message to families with home elevators. "We're going to send a personal letter from me to each of the homeowners" Hudgens said in an exclusive interview.
"We're going to ask them to go to your link and view this story that you have on your web site regarding the safety of elevators" Hudgens added.
Meantime, the state's residential elevator committee plans to strategize about how to keep children out of the space between the two doors.
At the top of the list for critics is the gap between the hallway and accordion doors. It's wider than most safety codes designed with children in mind - like the ones for stair spindles and crib slats.
The national standard for residential elevators is five inches. An 8-year-old boy in New England slid into a similarly sized gap and was killed.
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers sets the standard for this space. According to an engineer formerly with ASME, the non-profit group talked for years about closing that gap but still hasn't.
The I-team has asked repeatedly for ASME to talk about why its group, filled with industry insiders, maintains the five-inch gap. We are repeatedly told "..no comment."
Meantime, the Helveys had a space guard made, cheaply, to attach to the hallway door so that no one, much less a child, can fit into the space.
The company that sold the Helvey's elevator calls this a "tragic accident", not "faulty design." The company ultimately settled a lawsuit with the Helveys. This issue has now captured the attention of the Consumer Product Safety Commission, which has launched its own investigation.
In the meantime, the commission is warning parents to be aware that residential elevators can be a "very serious hazard."

That's consistent with what we've read so far, and roughly consistent with what we think Apple should try to sell.
As we noted yesterday, the netbook market -- small, cheap laptops -- is exploding. And Apple's multi-touch platform -- iPhone, iPod touch -- has been a big hit. So a marriage of the two makes sense.
But now we're wondering about software and pricing. Ten inches is a pretty big jump from the iPod touch, which has a 3.5-inch screen. This suggests that Apple's tablet might be a low-end extension of the Mac line, rather than a high-end extension of the iPod line. Potential differences: Which software Apple uses -- the iPhone flavor of OS X or the Mac flavor -- and how much Apple charges. Any ideas?

Gonzaga, the small Northwest school known for big NCAA tournament wins, is No. 1 in The Associated Press' Top 25 for the first time. Riding the best record in Division I at 29-2, the Bulldogs took advantage of Indiana's loss to Minnesota last week. The Bulldogs switched places with the Hoosiers, advancing from No. 2 to move comfortably into the No. 1 spot Monday. Gonzaga is the fifth school to hold the top spot this season. Indiana was the preseason No. 1 and on top for nine other weeks. Duke, Louisville and Michigan were the other No. 1s. Duke stayed at No. 3 with five first-place votes. Kansas and Georgetown both jumped two spots to fourth and fifth. The Hoyas received the other two first-place votes.
You can buy Gonzaga t-shirts at Sport Town located at Main and Stevens and the Gonzaga bookstore.
THIS JUST IN: In the brand new AP poll just out, GONZAGA is ranked #1 in the country. A first for Gonzaga. A monumental achievement for the Bulldogs! NICELY DONE!

DETROIT (AP) -- Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick was convicted Monday of corruption charges, ensuring a return to prison for a man once among the nation's youngest big-city leaders. Jurors convicted Kilpatrick of a raft of crimes, including racketeering conspiracy, which carries a maximum punishment of 20 years behind bars. He was portrayed during a five-month trial as an unscrupulous politician who took bribes, rigged contracts and lived far beyond his means while in office until fall 2008. Kilpatrick wore a surprised, puzzled look at times as U.S. District Judge Nancy Edmunds read the jury's verdict: guilty of 24 charges, not guilty on three and no consensus on three more. Kilpatrick declined to speak to reporters as he left the courthouse. Prosecutors said Kilpatrick ran a "private profit machine" out of Detroit's City Hall. The government presented evidence to show he got a share of the spoils after ensuring that Bobby Ferguson's excavating company was awarded millions in work from the water department. Business owners said they were forced to hire Ferguson as a subcontractor or risk losing city contracts. Separately, fundraiser Emma Bell said she gave Kilpatrick more than $200,000 as his personal cut of political donations, pulling cash from her bra during private meetings. A high-ranking aide, Derrick Miller, told jurors that he often was the middle man, passing bribes from others. Internal Revenue Service agents said Kilpatrick spent $840,000 beyond his mayoral salary. Ferguson, Kilpatrick's pal, was also convicted of racketeering conspiracy. The jury could not reach a verdict on the same charge for Kilpatrick's father, Bernard Kilpatrick, but convicted him of submitting a false tax return. The judge said the jury finished its work Friday but wanted to go home for the weekend before announcing the results Monday. "They said they wanted to sleep on it. ... I had a sense of what the verdict was," Edmunds told reporters. Kwame Kilpatrick, who now lives near Dallas, declined to testify. He has long denied any wrongdoing, and defense attorney James Thomas told jurors that his client often was showered with cash gifts from city workers and political supporters during holidays and birthdays. The government said Kilpatrick abused the Civic Fund, a nonprofit fund he created to help distressed Detroit residents. There was evidence that it was used for yoga lessons, camps for his kids, golf clubs and travel. "The scale of corruption was breathtaking," Assistant U.S. Attorney Mark Chutkow said in a closing argument on Feb. 15. "We cannot turn away and ignore the corruption that occurred in this city. It is time for the former mayor and his accomplices to be held accountable for their crimes -- it is past time." The current mayor, Dave Bing, said the verdict would allow the city to move on from "this negative chapter in Detroit's history." It's "time for all of us to move forward with a renewed commitment to transparency and high ethical standards in our city government," Bing said in a statement. Kilpatrick, 42, was elected in 2001 at age 31. He resigned in 2008 and pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice in a different scandal involving sexually explicit text messages and an extramarital affair with his chief of staff. The Democrat spent 14 months in prison for violating probation in that case after a judge said he failed to report assets that could be put toward his $1 million restitution to Detroit. Voters booted his mother, Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, from Congress in 2010, partly because of a negative perception of her due to her son's troubles.

For parents of younger kids--if you're anything like me, this is the moment you dread. Your kids are ---wait for it--- SICK! High fever, throwing up--sluggish--feeling horrid.
Yup, Julie and I should've seen this coming--like a thunderstorm rumbling in the distance. Julie--smack dab in the middle of our move--came down ill with strep throat
.... hey wait a sec'?! where'd you go? .... no, NO--I don't have it .... WOAH?! is that a mask? SERIOUSLY, I don't have it... OK ok sit across the room from me... fine...
Well, back to my point--Julie was ill, during our move and at Christmas! Better yet. SO--last night our oldest boy Caleb says his head hurts and low and behold--he has a fever.
Growing up, when I was sick my parents rushed around in hopes of easing whatever I was dealing with. Usually my mom took command and got the Tylenol or cool wash cloth. My dad watched in the wings--grabbing whatever she needed or running out to the drugstore. One time I remember having a thumping, debilitating headache and my dad drove me to the hospital showing off his defensive driving skills that he had learned as a firefighter. Yup--it drove my mom nuts. AND when I did the same for Sadie when she was breathing rough--I freaked out and probably bent some laws to get her to the hospital. It wasn't a crisis--but Urgent Care as much as told us there wasn't anything more they could do after the breathing treatment didn't work.
SO--now my wife, cool and collected--has to deal with me buzzing around, grumpily worried, not knowing what to do or how to help Caleb. As the hours ticked by soon -- like the weather service issuing a spat of warnings from north to south, the counties of Keith, Adam and Sadie became ill. It was a long night. We tried our best. Eventually all of the kids got to sleep--or fell back asleep--and all was quiet in Smallville.
So, new parents know this-- You're not alone-- I've been there (along with most other of our blog readers) and done that. Relief is coming--try your best to be that cool, calm parent in the meantime. OH--and if you don't want to tee off your significant other--don't break laws on the way to the Urgent Care or ER.

Hiring a photographer to capture the moment you propose has been all over Pinterest. Guess what? My better half doesn't go on Pinterest and gets all glossy-eyed when I work in "I saw this thing on Pinterest…" into our conversations. Sound familiar? Don't fret! My guy didn't have a photographer to capture the moment he got down on one knee but I still get to relive that night over and over.
After I "came to" about the proposal I did not see coming I knew I had to do two things: 1-call my family and 2-Make sure I remembered everything little detail about what just happened. When I hung up the phone with my parents I made sure my phone wasn't water damaged from all the happy tears and remembered that it has the voice recorder app on it. (I tend to use this primarily to record my man snoring to have proof that he does indeed snore like a freight train.) I opened up the app and laid it on his chest and made him tell me the story about how he proposed.
Here is the recording we made 15 minutes after he proposed! I am very giggly and you can tell I was just crying. So please forgive my awesome laughing throughout the video. This is the photo he put up on Facebook that night.
This recording is my most prized possession in the entire world. To protect it from flash floods, fires and my two dachshunds I have burned it to a CD and emailed it to myself. This thing isn't going anywhere! No matter how long it's been since your proposal I recommend doing this now. As in right now. Have your better half tell the story of your engagement so you can listen to it over and over again.

A good WR knows how to adjust his route so he can end up where he's supposed to be.
Riley Cooper of the Philadelphia Eagles did exactly that today. Cooper went to a Kenny Chesney concert last Wednesday and -- much like in Chesney's hit "Out Last Night" -- said and did some things he regrets. Many of us have done likewise. The difference is that the 25-year-old dropped a certain word that just isn't used in polite company.
... or public.
... or really anywhere anymore.
I want to jump ahead on this. Let's not get into the racial aspects [Cooper happens to be white] or how the word is given a free pass in certain cultural venues. Let's overlook the [often incorrect] perception that Country music fans are more racially insensitive. Let's avoid the hollering of "Free speech!" by those who clearly don't understand what the First Amendment actually guarantees. Let's brush past the fact that the fourth-year player went to Florida [see: Aaron Hernandez].
Let's not dwell on what Cooper did wrong when we can focus on what he did right.
If you ever wanted to know how to apologize for a huge screw-up, read Cooper's statement.
Then read it again.
There is genuine contrition. More than once, he says he is ashamed. He doesn't make excuses. He kept it short yet sincere.
[Cooper makes a catch against the Tennessee Titans during his rookie season -- Photo: REUTERS/M. J. Masotti, Jr.]
That's how it should be done.

By Maurielle LueFox 2 News ReporterDETROIT (WJBK) -- There was slipping and sliding on slick, icy pavement created by a water main break at Conner and Wade on Detroit's east side. It's the reason two police officers were rushed to the hospital early Thursday morning.We were able to capture pictures from SkyFox of where the officers' police car veered off the road and crashed into a tree.Yoseff Hassan owns the BP gas station near the broken water main. He says cars lose control and swerve dangerously close to his pumps."It happens, I think, three, four times a year and it's never fixed. They come and patch it and leave and it happens again," he said.Mayor Dave Bing's press secretary, Anthony Neely, released the following statement."The Conner / Wade intersection is a location that has had a slow, intermittent leak for several months. Our Water Department's efforts to find the leak have been unsuccessful, but now that it has apparently surfaced and created a hazard, the department is exposing the main in the area in order to locate the source. We hope to find it quickly and eliminate the inconvenience to residents, businesses and traffic in the area."

It's a debate that's raged on for many eons. It's like the Hatfield's v. McCoy's of the tubed meat world.
Is it okay (as an adult) to put ketchup on a hot dog?
The vitriol on both sides of the debate is deeper than the vats of the sweet, tangy red sauce at a Heinz facility.
The Huffington Post took this issue up last year solely based on the comments generated from a blog post and video taking up the topic.
Exactly what IS wrong with slapping ketchup (don't get me started on the difference between ketchup and catsup) on a frankfurter lodged inside a bun?
In Chicago, they put everything that isn't tied down on a dog. That includes a tomato, which is one of the major ingredients of ketchup.
There are many incarnations of chili dogs. Some chili recipes include ketchup in the ingredient list, as is chocolate. Now I ask you, would you cringe if the person standing next to you in line at the ballpark asked about where the Hershey's was?
Or any of these concoctions?
But here's the thing, we're all adults here. While sweet and salty combinations are an important thing, one food pairing that doesn't fall into that category is hot dogs and ketchup.
Did you know that ketchup can smother (in a bad way) the flavor of a good, quality hot dog?
According to the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council, it's even listed as bad etiquette to put that stuff on your dog.
Hot dogs, in my opinion, are made for condiments like mustard, onions (grilled or raw), sauerkraut and relish. There are so many different combinations involving flavors of mustard, that it's impossible not to find one that fits your palate.
As much as I understand that you can't tell a customer or food-lover what they can and can't eat (free will people), I would have to remain behind the nay crowd.
I'm not a hater, and would never call out a ketchup user in public for embarrassment purposes. But know that I would never, under any circumstances, put ketchup on my frank.

We have a group of six people, all good cooks, and all with good cellars, that banded together some years ago with the goal of hosting dinners in turn, that offer an opportunity to bring out the special bottles that otherwise seem to be always awaiting the right occasion to open. The host sometimes simply chooses a theme for the wines and everyone else offers a short list of possible options from their cellars to choose among. Sometimes, the host tells us what the food will be and leaves it to us to choose just the right bottle for a particular course.
I was just presented with the latter sort of choice, with the added condition that my wine would be one of two served with the course in question and the other wine was provided by the host. I then had to decide just which wine would best complement both the food and the wine already chosen, to be provided by the host. I thought the exercise might be fun for some here who enjoy food and wine pairing, so I thought I'd offer the guidelines I was given and give you a chance to tell us what wine you'd choose (not necessarily from your cellar - choose whatever you think would be a good match) and tell us why you chose that wine.
The dish will be duck two ways, a confit and a magret (breast). The wine provided by the host was a 1990 Ch. Leoville Poyferre, a rich and very hefty claret with a long life ahead, but now drinking reasonably well based on my last tasting of it.
You can choose any wine from anywhere in the world. What would you choose and why?
I'll leave this open for a day or two and then I'll come back and post my choice and my reason behind it (the host accepted my first proposal, BTW).

Supreme Protein Supreme Protein Bars Peanut Butter & Jelly Highlights:
A wealth of new information is now available supporting the widespread health benefits of diets containing adequate amounts of high quality protein and restricted amounts of sugar and processed carbohydrate. Whether you are looking to improve your health, increase energy levels, lose body fat, or build muscle - The Supreme Protein site is dedicated to providing you the most up to date ground breaking nutrition information from leading researchers to help you achieve your goals. Here is just a sampling of why we feel so passionate about the power of protein and why we developed Supreme Protein Bars to help people achieve peak wellness.
Bodybuilders know that adequate protein is necessary to build muscle mass. But higher protein intakes have also been linked to helping preserve muscle mass during weight loss and helping prevent muscle loss as we age (sarcopenia). Since protein can be more satiating and thermogenic than carbohydrate and fat, spacing the right amount of protein throughout the day helps you feel full while promoting a greater caloric burn. This explains why higher protein diets have consistently resulted in greater weight loss and fat loss than conventional diets. Quality of protein and the timing of ingestion are additional factors that cannot be ignored.
Have you ever skipped a meal or not eaten anything after a workout? Then most of your efforts could have been wasted because if protein is not consumed after exercise the body can remain in an overall catabolic state. Timing of protein ingestion around workouts is absolutely critical to get the most from your hard work in the gym. Incredible advances have also been made in our knowledge of protein quality especially whey protein. Cutting edge research has highlighted several novel features that make whey a highly desirable source of protein for athletes, dieters, and people wanting to improve overall health.
A notable feature of whey is its prevalence of essential amino acids, particularly leucine, which signals protein synthesis. Whey protein is digested and absorbed quicker than other protein sources, making it a preferred pre- and post-workout protein source. Whey may result in improved body composition including the potential to increase lean body mass and decrease fat mass. Whey protein has antioxidant effects because it is a unique rich source of cysteine necessary for synthesis of the potent antioxidant glutathione. Several peptides from whey protein have been shown to lower blood pressure and enhance immune function.
Science: About Whey Protein IsolateThe scientific debate over which form of protein possesses the greatest anabolic power came to an end a few years ago, with one form emerging the clear winner. Compared to whey concentrates, caseins, milk or soy proteins, whey protein isolate (WPI) contains the highest amounts of the valuable microfractions in whey that support increases in lean muscle mass. It has higher concentrations of the essential branched chain amino acids L-isoleucine, L-leucine, and l-valine, and is a rich source of the powerful microfractions alpha-lactalbumin and glycomacropeptides, which are key factors in enhancing bioavailability, boosting immune response and greatly increasing anabolic activity. Whey isolate also has demonstrated a nutrient partitioning effect, driving nutrients away from fat storage and toward accumulation of lean muscle tissue. Finally, high quality whey protein isolate contains no fat, lactose or impurities.
Clearly, premium-grade whey protein isolate is your best muscle-building protein value. And no other bar on the market today contains more whey isolate than the amazing Supreme Protein-a masterpiece of nutrition and flavor in every bite!
About Supreme ProteinDelicious, nutritious and convenient, Supreme Protein just might be the ultimate functional food. Each sensational flavor is nutritionally designed to significantly impact your physique-enhancing goals.
From its premium-quality protein blend-powered by ultra-pure whey isolate as its primary source-to the truly amazing taste, Supreme Protein has emerged to become a leader in the protein bar market. In fact, no other product of its kind has earned more accolades and awards than this gourmet brand.

2. Place 1 square wrong side up and place a toilet paper roll centered towards one end on its side.
3. Using your Sewline glue pen, apply some glue across the toilet paper roll.

I don't have a teenage daughter yet, but I will sooner than I'd like to think about and after hearing recent statements from the CEO of Abercrombie & Fitch I will never allow my daughter to shop there. At least not while I'm paying for her clothes and I will encourage her not to too.
There is so much pressure on young girls to look a certain way that we certainly don't need clothing stores chiming in on it too. It's bad enough that there's a store called 5, 7, 9 that only sells clothes in those sizes, but at least their up front about it in their name. Abercrombie is pulling clothes they consider to be plus size.

The spokesperson for Detroit Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr said efforts to battle blight, improve lighting and increase trash removal are all underway despite the city's controversial bankruptcy filing and concern the city's workers will lose their pensions.
"We are still getting about the business of turning the city around even though we're in bankruptcy. None of that stuff is stopping," said Bill Nowling.
"I want to make sure that people understand they're going to continue to get pensions, but what we're talking about is the amount of under funded in the pensions, and we just have to deal with that. We have to come to an agreement on what that is, and we just have to move forward so people can know what to expect."
However, the city's pensioners, firefighters and police officers have taken action, filing an objection in federal Bankruptcy Court.
The Court of Appeals is now reviewing last week's ruling by an Ingham County judge that the bankruptcy filing was unconstitutional. She ordered Gov. Rick Snyder to withdraw it. A Monday morning hearing to find out why that has not happened was adjourned until next week.
"We have a governor who swore to take an oath to uphold the constitution, and unfortunately he's decided not to do that," said Richard Mack.
The labor attorney said by law, pension benefits cannot be impaired or diminished.
"It's money that you worked for and earned. It's your wage. That wage is yours, and if that's yours, you have a right to it per constitution," he said.
Mack said it is unfair to compare the city's 20,000 retirees to the bondholders.
"The bondholders get paid. The insurance companies get paid. At least let's treat Grandma Jones as well as Wall Street and the loan sharks and all the rest of them," he said.
"Generally, if you're an unsecured creditor you're supposed to be treated the same -- now here's the big exception -- unless there is a good reason," said John Pottow.
The University of Michigan law professor and bankruptcy expert said there can be exceptions, but right now it is still unclear how this current filing will hold up in court since a state judge has already declared it unconstitutional.
"Federal law is supreme. So under the supremacy clause of the Constitution, federal law trumps state law when there's a conflict between the two. With that said, you can't just ignore state laws," Pottow said.
Whatever the state Court of Appeals decides could be appealed to the Michigan Supreme Court. Meanwhile, the first hearing in federal Bankruptcy Court will be on Wednesday.

Resource Recovery Station InformationAre you interested in composting food waste, but aren't able to do so at home? The City's Solid Waste Division now has Resource Recovery Stations, located at the City's Farmers' Markets . Staff will be on site to explain how food yard waste programs work at home, and accept items for composting. There will also be compost tubs available to purchase for $5; each one conveniently has a lid, handle, and small enough to transport food waste to and from home, disposing items at the stations located in the Farmers' Markets.
Refuse ProgramsLearn more about curbside refuse collection, who is eligible, how to prepare items for collection, and how to request a service.
Recycling ProgramsLearn more about recycling at home, school, work and on the go, as well as, other environmentally friendly programs in the City.
Street Cleaning ProgramsLearn about the various street cleaning programs such as annual leaf collection and adopt-a-block programs.
The Resource Recovery Division, part of the Department of Transportation and Environmental Services (T&ES), is committed to providing public services in a professional and courteous manner. It is our goal to provide services that protect the environment and respond to the needs of the community at the least possible cost. Accomplishing this goal requires a cooperative effort between Alexandria citizens, businesses, and City government.
In January 2012, Alexandria and Arlington entered into a new Waste Disposal and Service Agreement with Covanta Energy for processing the jurisdictions' solid waste. This contract was approved unanimously by both the City Council and County Board and established an initial term through 2019.
However, this new Agreement left open several decisions that need to be made for the continued use of the facility by the Jurisdictions. So, as part of the 2012 approval process the Council and Board directed staff to conduct a third-party economic analysis to evaluate the agreement, extension options and costs of waste disposal alternatives to support their decision-making process. The analysis is now complete and the issue at hand is whether or not the jurisdictions should extend the term of the agreement, and if so, in what time frame.
In brief, the jurisdictions can take over ownership of the Facility in 2025, or could elect to extend their site lease with Covanta to 2038, with the jurisdictional tip fee (the per ton waste disposal rate) dropping to $0 for the period from 2025 through 2038 and with the facility and site then returning to the jurisdictions in 2038.

By Abbey Stone, Hollywood.com Staff
Director Gus Van Sant was a late addition to John Krasinski and Matt Damon's cautionary tale against fracking, Promised Land. The script was finished and the lead actors (Damon and Krasinski) were cast when Damon had to back out of his anticipated role as director. ""One year ago, [Damon] decided he didn't have time [to direct] so he called and said, 'Do you want to direct it?'"" Van Sant tells Hollywood.com. ""I guess I was the person they thought of. Or, I don't know if they checked with Soderbergh first or what. I took one night, read it, and said, 'Yeah sure,' because I really liked it."" The rest, as they say, was history.
Van Sant is no stranger to Damon's writing the two teamed up for Good Will Hunting (1997) and Gerry (2002) and he found much to work with in Damon and Krasinski's script. ""The characters were interesting, the dialogue was funny but it was also pretty serious, the story was very enthralling and you were pulled into it. Everything else I could imagine putting into it was exciting. Everything was in order,"" Van Sant says. ""My thing is usually if you have a good story then all the other stuff is sort of doable. Like the thing that you really need is a story. [Promised Land] did have a good story and then it also had all these other things as well.""
PICS: 20 Best (and Worst) Movies of 2012
The ""other things"" Van Sant refers to are heart, compassion, and a nuanced look at the fracking issue at hand. And in Promised Land, these elements shine through the well-developed, charismatic characters. So for Van Sant, nailing the casting was paramount. ""It became at some point common knowledge to directors that casting was a large part of your job,"" Van Sant says.
""I guess I think of Streetcar Named Desire,"" Van Sant says by way of analogy. ""If you're casting that play, and you find a Marlon Brando because I think that was one of Marlon's first roles but you have an ability to use somebody that's maybe been around who was more well-known than Marlon, what's the better choice? It's not necessarily the most well-known person, it's the person that's going to really make the role sing. So if all your characters are cast in that fashion, then each of the roles are cast perfectly and they're going to make it sing.""
With Promised Land, the actors certainly make their roles sing. Joining Damon and Krasinski in the film's talented cast are Frances McDormand, Hal Holbrook, and Rosemarie DeWitt. The audience expects a high quality of work from this slate of actors, but at the same time, Van Sant knew he could trust them to bring the goods. ""Somebody was just talking about what made a good director what produces a good performance, and it was something about letting the actor run free with it so they can actually have fun with the character. As opposed to the director being an enforcer, like more of a policeman,"" Van Sant says. ""If you're afraid to let the [actor] go too far one way or the other because of maybe a preconceived vision that you had or because of simple blocking or lighting or mental versions of that it can become the job of the actor to simply listen to the director's preconceptions. A lot of times that means that they don't get to have their own preconceptions. So this person talking was saying like, in the best situations it's usually that the directors trust their actors to sort of go with it.""
PICS: Best Movie Trailers of the Year
Speaking of his Promised Land cast specifically, Van Sant says, ""They're such pros that they just do it. But then, you know, they are looking at you and asking what you think. But sometimes they don't care what you think Ben Affleck was talking about something that I told him that he actually used. We were doing Good Will Hunting and he was asking me about, 'What if the actor wants to do something different? What if they want to change the words and just do something different? What do you do?' And I said, 'Oh, I usually let them do it.' And he couldn't believe it!""
Van Sant continues, ""You know, the freedom is the thing that's necessary. If the actor wants to change the script, usually what can happen is it becomes good, it makes the script really good, or he himself will actually realize it's not so good and will say, 'Let's go back.' But it's the freedom to do that that really empowers them and makes the actors see for real that they're actually part of the process. It's not like they're just there to recite lines for you.""
Damon's performance in Promised Land hinges on his ability to imbue his character Steve, a sales representative for the massive natural gas drilling corporation, with sympathy. But [SPOILER ALERT!], a third act twist has Steve choose to ally with the farming community and environmentalist perspective rather than his employer. ""I think it's because of the corporate deception,"" Van Sant says of Steve's change of heart. ""It's a common theme, and has been a common theme since corporations were invented. Because I think they were an invention in the 50s, like literally the way a modern corporation worked. In our film like the films I used to grow up watching about corporate deviousness is also about corporate deviousness. And [Steve's decision] is not because of the actual business of the corporation so much as it's about the structure of any given corporation.""
""We're also, as filmmakers, working for a corporation,"" Van Sant says, drawing a comparison between Hollywood and the natural gas corporation in the film. ""Our parent company is also just a big giant corporation Which means that individual thinking, anyone kind of using their imagination, is a threat to profits Say, if you met two actors and you just had a hunch that one of them might be better than the other, but the other one had starred in Twilight, and then if you used ""Actor A"" who didn't star in Twilight and your movie never made any money, the corporation might say, 'Why'd you make that decision?' And you said, 'Well I had a hunch they might be right.' Then you'd be fired. You might be celebrated if the movie made twice as much money as Twilight, but just making that individual decision is the thing that's not allowed in the corporation. So you have to go with the Twilight guy because it makes sense in view of the people behind the desk that are controlling numbers. There are so many corporate deceptive agencies that had sort of appeared over the last 20 years, because of the executives needing to be safe from their own bosses.""

Luckily for Van Sant, with Promised Land he was able to have his cake and eat it, too. While non of his A-list cast appeared in Twilight, Damon, Krasinski, and McDormand (as well as Van Sant) are names that fill theater seats. And yet, they were also the perfect people to make their characters sing.

Hypoparathyroidism is disorder in which the parathyroid glands in the neck do not produce enough parathyroid hormone (PTH).
The parathyroid glands help control calcium use and removal by the body. They do this by producing parathyroid hormone, or PTH. PTH helps control calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D levels in the blood and bone.
Hypoparathyroidism occurs when the glands produce too little PTH. Blood calcium levels fall, and phosphorus levels rise.
The most common cause of hypoparathyroidism is injury to the parathyroid glands during thyroid and neck surgery. Rarely, hypoparathyroidism is a side effect of radioactive iodine treatment for hyperthyroidism
Hypoparathyroidism may also be caused by
DiGeorge syndrome is a childhood disease in which hypoparathyroidism occurs because all the parathyroid glands are missing at birth. Familial hypoparathyroidism occurs with other endocrine diseases, such as adrenal insufficiency, in a syndrome called type I polyglandular autoimmune syndrome (PGA I).
Risk factors for hypoparathyroidism include:
Other symptoms may include:
Blood tests will be done to check calcium, phosphorus
, magnesium, and PTH levels. An ECG
may show abnormal heart rhythms.
A urine test may be done to determine how much calcium is being removed from the body.
The goal of treatment is to restore the calcium and mineral balance in the body.
Treatment involves calcium carbonate and vitamin D
supplements, which usually must be taken for life. Blood levels are measured regularly to make sure that the dose is correct. A high-calcium, low-phosphorous diet is recommended.
Persons who have life-threatening attacks of low calcium levels or prolonged muscle contractions are given calcium through a vein (IV). Precautions are taken to prevent seizures or larynx spasms. The heart is monitored for abnormal rhythms until the person is stable. When the life-threatening attack has been controlled, treatment continues with medicine taken by mouth.
The outcome is likely to be good if the diagnosis is made early. However, changes in the teeth, cataracts, and brain calcifications
cannot be reversed.
Hypoparathyroidism in children may lead to poor growth, abnormal teeth, and slow mental development.
Too much treatment with vitamin D and calcium can cause hypercalcemia
(high blood calcium) and may sometimes interfere with kidney function.
Hypoparathyroidism increases your risk of:
Call your health care provider if you develop any symptoms of hypoparathyroidism.
Seizures or breathing problems are an emergency. Call 911 or your local emergency number immediately.

midweSTYLE: Campus
It's midterm season. You hit the quad, half walking, half running, panicking because your bike got a pinch flat back on University Avenue and you had to lock it up and ditch it by Mumford Hall, but your class is over off 6th St.
You had five minutes then. Now you're down to three.
You didn't sleep last night; you didn't have that luxury. Eating, that wasn't exactly on the agenda either. You're breathing though, running over a general timeline of early medieval history again in your head. Professor said exact dates weren't necessary, so you subconsciously purged those. Diocletian. Constantine. The Council of Nicaea. You know this is all living in your short-term memory, trying to bleed back out.
You need to get this down on paper. Now.
You bust through the auditorium doors. Heads turn, people stare. Whatever. You're past embarrassment. You sit, loudly. That TA, the one who always wears the sweat-stained Cardinals hat and a smug, condescending frown, he hands you the exam. Your eyes close. Open. You check the essay questions first. You always check the essay questions first. Pressure releases, you've got those on lock. Multiple choice takes care of itself. You write, and write, and write, shaking slightly from the triple espresso you put down a few hours ago. But it's not long before it's all over. You turn in the exam, with an unexpected confidence in your performance. You leave content. You're walking back across the quad, tired, but more than elated that that midterm is over. Maybe just more excited that you have an opportunity to relax.
And it's then that you stop and look around. You take it in. The leaves. The colors. You'd been ignoring them for the past few days—too busy. But your studying is over now. You hear the soft rustle of leaves being trampled underfoot. You inhale the crisp air. It feels good. And your once overwhelmed and over distracted mind can ignore it no longer.
Fall is here.
Fall, for me, is primarily about two things: layers and fabrics. Flannels, wools, thick-knits. Jackets over sweaters over shirts, with scarves on top. Hats too, sometimes. Put on boots, any boots. And don't forget tweed. Fall is your time to experiment. It's your chance to find who you are, sartorially. Throw on some sportcoats. Or don't, it's your call. But really, above all, have fun. Clothes can be fun. They should be fun.
Wear a watch. You should know what time it is without fishing your iPhone out of your pocket. Plus, watch straps are the new way to display your personality (sarcasm). But in all seriousness, start collecting. Or just buy this.
Fall is also a great time to break in a fresh pair of raw denim. Or, if your selvedge collection is already three or so deep, get on that duck canvas jam. You'll be glad you did.
On Cameron: thrifted herringbone blazer by Hill and Archer, thrifted heather grey sweater by Ireland Group; Kurabo denim in the 77 fit by Baldwin Denim; thrifted blue oxford by Gant, beeswax desert boots by Clarks; military watch by Timex.
Photography by Mallory Wiegers.
I adore that Heather pullover, and your all around style here.
Love seeing the guys getting out there and making style accessible. I might just forward this blog to my BF who (I sadly have to admit) isn't too concerned about what he wears.
p.s. I do imagine poor Cameron left shivering in his briefs when that last picture was taken.
That little narrative was absolute 100% descriptive of the fall season. Who can ever forget running laps around the quad to take your early morning exam? Good times… that are happening now for me.. Love the look, I would die for that blazer (in a women's size)!
Cam, have you found any places that sell cool straps for the weekender besides Corter? I'm loving mine watch, got it a couple months ago.
In love with you guys! You look so amazing!
That was my thought, too.
Love it! Really great last photo, but I can't help but imagine Cameron standing over the clothes, snapping a photo in his underwear. or perhaps he was raptured…
mistermidwester… fantastic name.
yale, the drive from Jeff City to Columbia was one of my favourite college memories (Not related to the football/basketball team).
Great colors and fit on this one. I take a lot of my style cues from nature, and this outfit is a grey fall day to a T.
Was Cameron standing in his skivvies while arranging and taking that last photo?
Sixth Street? The EE auditorium perhaps? Back in my day (ugh) the History Dept. decamped in the A&S building (although I do recall taking History 3 and 4 in Geology Aud. Nonetheless, I agree with Joy on the hitting close to home thing. I minored in history at Mizzou(fell 6 hours short of a double major but decided I'd rather move on to law school than hang around another semester).
Fall in CoMo is specatcular (in addition to my 4 years at Mizzou, I also happened to grow up just down 63 in Jeff City) and downtown used to be resplendent with great men's stores. I think Bingham's is the only holdover from the old days. Puckett's (where they'd be all to happy to offer you a glass of Scotch while you browsed), Mr. Guy and Woody's were all within a couple of blocks of each other. Harry Smith's was out west at Parkade Plaza (back when there were actually stores there).
Ah, memories.
This last photo reminds me of one of my favorite pic blogs. Do you guys read thingsorganizedneatly.tumblr.com? Aesthetically up your alley, maybe?
Great post but man your opening paragraph cuts too close to home.
The natural strap is a sample from Corter Leather – he's working on getting those available in 20/22/24 mm, I believe. Corter's product is always great, so I'm definitely grabbing one when they drop. Rigging up your own sounds awesome too. I'd just eBay a cheap nylon Nato and strip its hardware. Let us know if you make one, we'd love to see it!
Love that natural leather watch strap – where is it from? Or where can I pick up the nato strap hardware to make my own?

My favorite software construction tool!
Being able set up a build system in a language as expressive as Python is fantastic. A great solution for true multi-platform compatibility (i.e. native Windows tools as well as Posix-like systems). I only wish it were more widely used.
Excellent tool!
I am used to many languages, but Python just sucks for a build tool. as a developer knowing C and c++ well enough to do what I need to do, getting into python to configure stuff is just bad. I rather use Qt or just plain makefiles. I downloaded a project using scons, but there is no way to get that compiled. it started of that zlib.h wasn't found even it was available in /usr/include
very good project, thanks!

text: It had all the markings of the most spectacular roller coaster ride you've ever been on. White knuckle anticipation, fear, the climb, a pit in your stomach followed by a huge drop and finally overwhelming exhilaration. Yes, these are the 2012 Tigers that we have come to know and love (and at times despise) this season - but for better or worse, to follow them means submitting to their twisted fate. Sure you can bemoan Benoit, and curse Coke for all that went wrong on Sunday but the final overwhelming thought I take away from this game is the amazing and uplifting story of Don Kelly. A guy who, at one point this season, was being mocked by fans after Jim Leyland's tearful admission that sending him back to Toledo was one of the toughest things he's ever done as a manager. Today's final swing of the bat by the man who lost his spot on the 40-man roster earlier in the season is a story of disappointment, determination and finally a comeback. The real life version of what Rocky and Rudy could only portray to be. When Kelly stepped to the plate,with the game tied, bases loaded and one out in the bottom of the ninth, you could see his shoulders lift and drop as he took a deep cleansing breath before stepping into the batters box - as if to say, 'Okay, I got this.' Lifted by the confidence of his teammates and manager and his belief in himself, Kelly delivered and during the ensuing celebration on the field, the 190 pound utility outfielder actually lifted his 270 pound teammate Prince Fielder off the ground with a little help some adrenaline of the "Moment you dream of as a player." Sunday's celebration was once again a reminder, that it takes every player on the roster to win games this time of year and it also takes dozens of signature moments to run deep into the playoffs. But until Tuesday, the best message from Sunday's game 2 win by the Tigers is that, nice guys don't always finish last.

Fierce Shoes and Fiercer Brooches From Judy and Jane Aldridge
Eighteen-year-old Jane Aldridge has become something of a celebrity since launching her blog Sea of Shoes three years ago, wowing mouse-clicking style-o-philes with her sophisticated and unusual outfits (example: vintage YSL knickerbockers with a camel silk blouse, Dries Van Noten sandals and plenty of gold antique bling) and—of course—her palpitation-inducing collection of heels, boots and wedges. Not to be outdone by her glamorous daughter, Judy Aldridge, a former model and fashion designer, started Atlantis Home in 2008. On mom's blog, personal outfit posts (she mixes statement heels and second-hand accessories with battered Levi's 501s and bold-shouldered 80s jackets like a lime green, bow-embellished Louis Feraud stunner) are interspersed with interior design inspirations, home recipes and precious finds from her travels in Texas and abroad. While both mother and daughter espouse an undeniably eccentric style, "we don't ever wear our clothes ironically," says Jane. Their collections are carefully considered—from the outré, couture-inspired pieces of Dallas-based Victor Costa to every pair of Jane's shoes and Judy's trove of old-school jewelry (the duo also design an animal-themed collection of accessories with Judy's sister, Karen Babcock). The Aldridge ladies chat to NOWNESS about a few of their collectibles.

"These came out amazing! The colors are vibrant and I love the way the upgraded pearl finish looks. People have been asking where I got them and are shocked when i tell them they aren't from some fancy boutique but rather ordered online from the comfort and convenience of my bed. I adore tiny prints. The customer service is also amazing. I made an error on my original batch and the rep told me to send them back and they gave me a full refund. I couldn't believe it! They really just want their customers to be happy and will do what needs to be done to make that happen. This is my second time using Tiny prints and I'm officially a loyal customer now!"
"I ordered my daughters birthday invitations from here for the 2nd year & just like the 1st time, they are so unique & beautiful!! Not only that, but they arrived almost a week ahead of the given delivery date!!! How amazing! This is definitely where I will always order from in the future. :)"
"These are the cutest invitations I have ever seen! I took a picture of my son facing forward with a fire helmet on looking "out the window" and waving - I love it!! Everyone who received the invites told me how much they loved them too."
"The look and feel of this card were exactly what I was going for, and I loved that Tiny Prints was able to expedite delivery since this busy mom was a little behind getting them ordered. I've received so many compliments on the invitation and the photo - the design is adorable and the colors are really vibrant! I used the standard card, although instead of his first and middle names, I said "Will's 1st Birthday", and under RSVP I put the RSVP date and "see back for details", which allowed me to give more specifics on the day. The card allowed me the flexibility to personalize without changing any of the parts that I loved. I also put a picture on the back from when he was a newborn for a fun then-and-now perspective. I hadn't used Tiny Prints before and had originally planned to use another vendor, but Tiny Prints was able to get my order to me more quickly so I gave them a shot. I was impressed with the whole transaction and will be back as a customer."
"We did a 1st birthday for my son with a bowtie and mustache theme and this fit the bill perfectly! I didn't realize how long shipping would have to take, so I chose the 2 day shipping and it came right on time! This is my second purchase from Tiny Prints and I will definitely be coming back here."

This 16-fl oz coffee tumbler features a shimmery, pearlescent white color, with the Starbucks name embossed on the side. Green accents on the black handle add a colorful dimension. Handwash only. Do not microwave.
