- Abdominal imaging 2013, SpringerIn this book a team of leading experts come together to provide a comprehensive overview of modern imaging of the abdomen and pelvis, with detailed sections on both gastrointestinal and genitourinary imaging. Each chapter has an identical structure and focuses on a particular organ or organ system, allowing the reader to approach the field one topic at a time. Indications for a variety of imaging techniques and examination protocols are clearly described, and the imaging features of normal anatomy and pathologic entities are depicted in an abundance of high-quality images. Care is taken to consider all recent technical developments and new indications, and the diagnostic performance of different imaging modalities is carefully compared. It is anticipated that this book will come to be regarded as the standard work of reference on abdominal and pelvic radiology.

- Emergency radiology of the abdomen 2012, SpringerThe term "acute abdomen" refers to a serious, often progressive clinical situation that calls for immediate diagnostic and therapeutic action. Today, diagnosis via imaging has basically replaced the physical examination in the emergency room and the Radiologist has become of primary importance in this setting. However, close co-operation among the various specialists involved is essential for successful patient management, and thus the Radiologist needs to have a full understanding of the imaging modalities and technical skills required, as well as appropriate clinical knowledge of t

The defense in the military court martial of a former Lackland Air Force base basic training instructor rested their case late Thursday. The government rested it's case just before noon.
Staff Sgt. Luis Walker allegedly engaged in sexual misconduct and had improper relationships with 10 female trainees under his command.
A total of six training instructors have been accused of similar charges.
One has entered a guilty plea.
Five others are awaiting court martial proceedings.
Air Force investigators have identified at least 31 female trainees who claim they are victims.
The sex scandal began in 2009.
If Walker is convicted, he is facing a life prison sentence.

A broken wrist (wrist fracture) can involve a fracture of any of the small carpal bones in the wrist, or the ends of the forearm bones — the radius and the ulna. Wrist fracture treatment is a splint, cast or surgery, depending on the severity of the break. Rehabilitation therapy is usually needed.
Read more about wrist fractures.
Some wrist fractures cause no visible swelling or deformity and may go undetected. But an untreated wrist fracture can cause serious complications. It's important to seek medical care if you have wrist pain after an injury or fall.
A broken wrist bone that is likely to stay in a correct position while healing (stable fracture) often can be treated with a splint or cast. Complex fractures usually require surgery. At Mayo Clinic, some of these surgeries use minimally invasive techniques.
Distal radius fracture is the most common type of broken wrist. It occurs near the end of a lower arm bone (radius) close to the wrist.
Distal radius fracture often can be treated with a bone-straightening procedure and a cast. At Mayo Clinic, the straightening procedure may be done in the operating room, emergency room or doctor's office. You will need follow-up X-rays for up to 12 weeks to assess the bone's healing.
Severe distal radius fractures may need surgery. The options include:
The scaphoid bone is located on the thumb side of the wrist. A scaphoid fracture can go undiagnosed because the only symptom may be pain at the base of the thumb. Untreated, a scaphoid fracture can lead to wrist arthritis, pain and decreased grip strength.
Mayo surgeons have experience repairing advanced scaphoid fractures with a vascularized bone graft. That surgery involves inserting a piece of bone (graft), with its blood supply, transplanted from elsewhere in the body.
At Mayo Clinic, rehabilitation is an important part of wrist fracture treatment. The goal is to restore the strength and range of motion in your wrist and fingers and to ease stiffness. Mayo specialists also can help manage osteoporosis or other conditions that helped cause your bone damage.

In a few short weeks, I'll no longer fall into the 20-something category.
I still haven't wrapped my head around the fact that I'm turning 30 this year. I remember when my parents were in their thirties, and they seemed so old. Truth is, I don't feel old at all. In fact, I feel better than ever.
I'm finally at a point where I know myself inside and out. I'm assertive and confident in my abilities. I have a beautiful home and a sweet husband whom I adore. I've also had plenty of unique life experiences to make me feel like I've truly lived. Several of these life-changing events were trips I've taken.
Before turning 30, I think there are three very important trips every woman should take:
The trip with her father. Most girls don't know their dads as well as their mothers. They've bonded with their moms from a young age through breastfeeding - and moms are still the primary childcare providers in most American families. That's why I believe it's especially important for a young woman to go on a trip alone with her father. It's the perfect chance for a girl to get to know her dad on a deeper level.
My dad sponsored my high school's choir trip to England when I was 15. Traveling across the world with him gave me a new perspective on my dad: I learned he was incredibly patient, as he had to share a room with a rambunctious 15-year old boy for over a week. I also learned he was more knowledgeable about history than most encyclopedias; he made an excellent tour guide as we spent eight fascinating hours together at the Tower of London.
The solo trip outside of her comfort zone. I have jetted from my hometown of Rapid City, S.D., to Dallas, Seattle, San Francisco, Milwaukee and Philadelphia for photo shoots as a part-time model. I fly by myself, locate my hotels by myself, and meet with representatives from modeling agencies that I've never laid eyes on before. I also work with new makeup artists, hair stylists and photographers - most with larger-than-life personalities.
The second I step onto the set of a photo shoot, I'm finally in my zone - leaping, dancing, laughing, smiling, frowning - as the camera snap, snap, snaps. I do all of this while navigating completely new cities. I've learned to have faith and confidence in my ability to care for myself, while simultaneously enjoying new adventures. Before I leave for a trip, I'm generally nervous - but when that plane takes off, I feel grateful for the new journey I'm about to embark on. I know I will be a changed woman for it.
The trip with the man she suspects is "the one." Before tying the knot with a man, it's essential to travel with him. Being together 24/7 in unfamiliar environments, facing unexpected challenges, and experiencing new adventures are ideal ways to see how you'll solve conflicts together.
After road-tripping to Montana with my husband David last summer, and realizing how seamlessly we traveled together, I was ready to take our relationship status from serious to engaged. I knew that if we could survive the long car ride and cramped hotel quarters without killing each other, we could handle most anything. Not only did we survive, we thrived. It was a positive omen for the lifelong trip we'll be taking together as a married couple.

What is Muscle Soreness?
We all know what it feels it when we have overexerted our bodies – the result comes in the form of sore, stiff and tired muscles. If you have begun a new exercise routine, lifted a heavy box or gone for a long walk, it is only natural that you will experience muscle soreness. Muscle soreness frequently occurs when you have engaged in an unusual level of physical activity and your muscles are not use to the strain.

Last year, Bill Einhorn finally had enough. With 2002 drawing to a close, the $1.1 billion pension fund that Einhorn administers for the Teamsters union in Philadelphia was set to post its third straight year of lackluster investment returns up a measly 2 percent in 2000, flat in 2001, and down 5.98 percent in 2002. During that time, it had slid from being more than 90 percent funded to only about three-quarters funded. Now, all the analysis Einhorn could put his hands on was telling him that returns on fixed-income investments — the only portion of his portfolio that had been making money in the past couple of years — were heading toward single-digit levels.
His decision: dip a toe in alternative investments. With the agreement of the board of trustees, Einhorn took 5 percent of the fund's portfolio out of fixed income and put it into private real estate investments managed by New York-based General Motors Asset Management (GMAM), the $100 billion-plus (in assets) pension arm of General Motors Corp.
"What we were looking for was a higher return with some additional risk, but not too much risk, to help us meet our 7.5 percent earnings assumption," says Einhorn, who until this year had his fund's assets split 60-40 between publicly traded stocks and bonds. (The Teamsters checks its earnings assumption every five years; the current assumption was set in 1998.) As administrator of the Teamsters Pension Trust Fund of Philadelphia and Vicinity, a multiemployer plan that covers more than 27,600 active and retired union members, Einhorn had begun evaluating private real estate as an investment option in the first quarter of 2002. He signed papers committing to the investment in December, and in February 2003 he oversaw the fund's first infusion of capital into the limited-liability corporation that GMAM set up to manage the investment, a real-estate portfolio diversified by market sector and geography.
Einhorn may well achieve his objective, assuming he hasn't bought in at a market top. Over the past 3 calendar years, private real estate has generated average annualized returns of 8.73 percent, according to the National Council of Real Estate Investment Fiduciaries, versus an annualized loss of 14.57 percent for Standard & Poor's 500 stock index. Over the next 15 years, private core real estate should earn about 7 percent a year net of management fees, predicts consulting firm Frank Russell & Co., just under the 8.1 percent expected for an indexed portfolio of U.S. equities.
Whatever his timing, Einhorn is clearly not the only plan sponsor confronting a funding crisis, nor the only one casting around for fresh ways to invest pension monies. Thanks to slumping equity markets, companies in the S&P 500 saw their aggregate pension assets shrink by $173 billion from 1999 through 2002, estimates Credit Suisse First Boston. The average S&P 500 corporate pension plan lost 8.65 percent in 2002 and 7.37 percent in 2001, according to CSFB.
At the same time, declining interest rates drove up the present value of the S&P 500′s collective pension obligations by $289 billion, leaving those plans underfunded to the tune of $216 billion. Further declines in interest rates since then have exacerbated the problem. Now, many corporations that enjoyed a pension funding "holiday" in the 1990s are confronted with having to make sizable contributions to their plans.

Wider use of the Guard could signal a tougher strategy by Bahrain's Sunni embattled monarchy as riot police struggle to contain the Shiite majority's 21-month uprising.
A government statement said the Guard—a force separate from the regular military—will be patrolling "strategic locations" that have been scenes of arson attacks and clashes.
Hadi al-Musawi, a spokesman for the main opposition group Al Wefaq, said Guard troops were seen setting up in Sitra, a center of the revolt. Previously, Guard forces have been used mainly at key sites in the capital Manama, including the landmark square that was the center of the protests in their first weeks.
Meanwhile, heavy clashes erupted Saturday after the funeral of a teenager killed in a traffic incident during a clampdown on marchers the day before. Opposition groups claim the boy was hit by a car while fleeing security forces, but officials say the incident had no connection to the police action.
More than 55 people have died in unrest in Bahrain, which is home to the U.S. Navy's 5th Fleet.

The Nighthawks Athletic Club is the fundraising arm of the
Department of Athletics at the University of North Georgia.
Its goal is to enhance the academic and athletic experience by
providing student-athlete scholarships, first-class facilities, and
general financial support for our 220 student-athletes representing
the university in 12 intercollegiate sport programs.
Its purpose is to promote and encourage a continuing interest in, and loyalty to, the UNG athletic program. It also supports the staff in their efforts to coordinate, develop, maintain and improve a superior intercollegiate athletics program.
The UNG Athletic Department is 100% self-supported, therefore all private gifts contribute to the needs of our student-athletes, coaches and staff. In the state of Georgia, college athletic departments can not be funded by state money.
Private support enables the UNG Athletic Department to increase its standing in both athletics and academics over competing NCAA Division II schools, beyond what can be accomplished with annual revenue from marketing, ticket sales and other agreements.
The Nighthawks Athletic Club is comprised of individuals and corporate sponsors who recognize the value of athletics as part of a comprehensive educational experience. Alumni, former student-athletes, friends and fans are encouraged to join the Nighthawks Athletic Club to support our vital mission.

Can My Gift Be Designated To My Favorite Sport? The designation of your gift is entirely up to you. All you have to do is designate the sport name in the memo space of your check or in the comments of the online giving section. We will ensure your contribution reaches the proper area. If you need guidance in designating a gift our staff is happy to provide information about the department's greatest needs.
How Are Private Gifts Used By The University? All gifts to the Nighthawks Athletic Club are applied to the support of athletic excellence at the university. Gifts may be used to establish new scholarships or to add to existing ones, build or renovate athletic facilities, endow coaching positions and other special projects. All gifts are used in accordance with the directions of the donor. Your continued support of the fund-raising arm of UNG Athletics provides a way for our talented student-athletes to receive a quality education from the University of North Georgia and ensures the university's tradition of excellence continues to grow. The UNG Athletic Department's dependence on private support increases each year as expenses of education and the resources necessary to maintain a quality athletics program continue to rise.
Questions about the Nighthawk Athletic Club donation process can be directed to Mike Hyams, Assistant Athletic Director (Business).
