There's also a special event happening the night before, more on that here.
I'm a Childbirth Educator. I LOVE teaching couples about partner based, natural births, had two amazing births (I feel against many odds) because of the full spectrum of education my own courses gave me. As an educator, I charge myself with delivering confidence to my expectant parents in the birth process, knowing the lens I view information with can color their decision making; how I choose to phrase or label things can be carried through to another, unsuspecting ear, like their not even pregnant sister-in-law. Sorry about that. Thus, I teach the stages of labor, clearly defined junctures where hormones and anatomy coalesce into easily defined periods.
But is that how labor really works? Are they really defined strictly, or this a general framework we use to make sense of a highly intense, emotional journey?
The more and more births I go to the more I can say with confidence that labor stages exist, absolutely, but they are anything but clearly defined. A woman's individual temperment provides the backdrop, the hormones provide the shifting of her into a different, mammalian brain space, and here we are, an entire person going through labor. Not just a list of symptoms.
Gena Kirby is coming to NYC to teach her Rebozo Technique Workshop for us again, and BirthFocus is taking this opportunity to charge you with joining us for an intimate evening to discuss the "Holistic Stages of Labor." As an extremely well qualified and experienced doula, childbirth educator, and mom she presets this as a shift in viewpoint. Her passion for her work is a jolt of energy to recharge your own mission.
I think this is just as perfect for new doulas starting out as it it for seasoned educators looking for an educating and enlivened perspective. And what better way for us to embrace self care for each other's work by joining together, increasing our knowledge to pass on to our own clients and students, and maybe drink a little wine.
So after she goes to speak at the U.N., yup, that kind of important person, we have this opportunity. I hope you'll join us.
March 8th, 6:00-8:30pm, Downtown Hotel TBA upon registration, $45

a woman in line at an estate sale was telling all of us that her entire outfit was vintage. I said "wait a second, your outfit is from the 1980's". She nodded her head yes. Now that really ages you when the 80's becomes vintage.

Operations Managenment: National Cranberry Cooperative
This content was COPIED from BrainMass.com - View the original, and get the already-completed solution here!
The National Cranberry Cooperative case illustrates an interesting operational challenge. While the information about the cranberry production industry may be dated, we will focus on the process analysis which is real and universal. After reading the case "National Cranberry Cooperative" (Harvard Business School case, no. 9-688-122), provide concise answers to the following questions:
1. What are the problems facing RP1?
2. Draw a process flow diagram for RP1. Compute the capacity of each station in barrels per hour. What's the "Herbie" (i.e. bottleneck)? Upon what assumptions do your capacity calculations depend?
3. What happens on a peak day? More specifically:
a) How does the backlog of berries grow over time?
b) How much overtime labor is used? How much money does that represent?
c) At $25 per truck per hour, how much money does all the truck waiting time cost?
4. What recommendations, both short and long term, would you make to Mr. Schaeffer?
a) Given the peak-day costs developed in Questions 2 and 3, would you follow Walliston's recommendation to buy dryers (at $40,000 each) and to convert the dry holding bins to hold either wet or dry berries (at $7,500 each)? How many, if any, would you pay for?
b) Independent of any equipment purchases, what changes to peak-day operations would you recommend to Hugo Schaeffer?
To simplify matters and focus attention, use average numbers in all the analysis. Assume that:
? On a peak day, 18,000 barrels of berries are to be processed. The arrival of berries is evenly distributed over a 12 hour period starting at 7 am (i.e. ignore Exhibit 1 for now!).
? The delivery load varies from truck to truck; use the average of 75 barrels per truck in your analysis.
? Each truck takes 5-10 minutes to process at the dumper; use the average of 7.5 minutes.
? 70% of the berries are wet.
? Use the shift start times given in Figure E: 7 am for Receiving, 11 am for destine, dechaff, dry, milling, etc.
Hint for Question 3c):
? To find the number of truck-hours spent waiting (in order to compute truck waiting cost), it suffices to find the number of barrel-hours and then divide it by 75 (the average load of each truck).
o First find how many barrels are waiting to be unloaded over time.
o Then the area underneath the curve represents the total number of barrel hours.
The following graph is an example.
Solution Summary
Operations management for National Cranberry Cooperative is examined.

BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Tired of waiting for authorities to replace a bridge swept away last July by floods, Romanian villagers have finally given up — and built their own.
The catch: They didn't have a permit. Now they're the subject of a criminal investigation.
Prosecutor Viorel Damu said Friday that police are trying to identify those who worked on the bridge, which was built in a single day, Feb. 6. The guilty parties could be jailed for three years or fined up to 70,000 lei ($20,800), he said.
The mayor called that "absurd." He said villagers tested the bridge and limited the allowable weight to 2.5 tons. And they'll tear it down again, too, he said — just as soon as authorities find time build a new one.
Marginea was cut in half when the river overflowed seven months ago, making it difficult to get from one part of the village to the other. Police may be investigating, but on Thursday the prime minister commended the villagers' "solidarity."
And even the prosecutor seemed to relent. He said the villagers could escape punishment if an investigation concludes they acted out of a "state of necessity."

In the world of bike films, I can't think of a more popular realm than Freeride and Slope Style. With the release of recent films like the Collective, Roam and Follow Me, I think we've watched bike films evolve from, well, bike films, to a level of cinematic art that matches the artistry of the riders themselves. One of those riders, is Geoff Gulevich, Canadian Freeride and Slope Style madman, who recently took some time out of his training schedule to talk about what's it's been like riding for Rocky Mountain, working with Anthill Films and how his career as a pro rider may be evolving.
You've been with Team Rocky for a couple years, now – what's your experience been like with them and how are the new bikes measuring up?
GG – Being with Rocky has been unreal. They are very receptive to my input and just all around great people to work with. The bikes are incredible so far, and seem to be improving every year, so no complaints coming from my end. My all around confidence has jumped %500 since beginning to ride for Rocky. All around great support and top end tools to do my part of the job on.
What's your current ride of choice from the Rocky arsenal?
GG – Hmmmm… I don't know if I could pick just one. It really depends on the mood I'm in that morning. I will ride whatever bike, just happy to be out on a bike I have.
How did you get hooked up with Anthill Films? What's it been like making films with those guys?
GG – Originally, I was hooked up with 'The Collective' crew through Adidas Eyewear. That got my foot in the door. When they evolved to 'Anthill Productions', I knew them all well and we were hungry to film some progressive big moves. Working with that crew is just awesome; can't really call it work because we're always joking around and making every shoot feel like recess.
There's no question the Collective and Anthill Films are all about progression, so are there any specific shots you guys were trying to get that stick out in your memory?
GG – I'd have to say the wall ride I shaped out and made in the Baja for 'Follow Me'. Nothing was going right with it at first and the crew had lost faith in making it. Harookz stuck with me and we made it happen. Turned out to be my move of the trip for sure! I definitely would like to work with the Anthill crew again; just waiting to hear what they have in the works for the upcoming season.
Slope Style – how'd you get into it? Has it always been your focus?
GG – Well I've never been a racer… I can ride fast and I'm competitive; however, I'd rather more than anything find alternative lines, be creative and answer the question, "can it be done?" I never really made a choice, I didn't like racing but I had to be on my bike.
Seems like there is a big difference in the culture between Slope Style and the other kinds of competitive mtb. Is that a factor?
GG – Ohhhhh yeah!!!!! Racers and free stylers are two different breeds. Seems like every racer wants the people in the gate to crash where in free style it seems like a more positive vibe.
What's your preparation like for a big run, or big hit?
GG – When focussing before a run or move, I prefer to run it through my head a few times, can't really describe mental preparation. It's kinda like preparing for a test… You've practiced things similar to it, enough to know how to apply your knowledge to the current situation…
Do you do any other kinds of off-the-bike training, or do you just focus on riding to keep up your fitness and skills?
GG – I often hike, snowboard, play hockey, build and do yoga when I'm off my bike, however, I'd rather just ride, ALL THE TIME!!
Plans for 2011 season – where are you hoping to be riding, competing, and filming?
GG – Got most of the SS circuit to hit up, no Rampage this year, unfortunately. I'll be in Europe coaching with Wade's camps in Switzerland. It is going to be a pretty awesome season!
Rampage is a big event to miss. Is coaching a new thing for you, and would you see yourself doing more of it down the line?
GG – Well i'm not really missing Rampage, mentally I miss it but it isn't taking place this year. Coaching isn't too new for me, I never really knew how to tone it down and pay attention to other people's riding. I've learned to have more fun coaching, kind of chill out and look at riding more relaxed when I coach. Yeah, I could definitely see myself coaching down the road.
It's going to be awesome to see where Freeride and Slope Style goes in the next couple years with young guys like Geoff always pushing the limits and looking for that new line. Hopefully we also see the films continue to progress as well. HD and Blue Ray seems like a natural. Here is a vid by Harkootz from 2010's Rampage showin' off Geoff's work:

Cartoon Forum – 100% Success for Pesky!
This week is the Cartoon Forum's 25th Birthday! Happy Birthday Cartoon Forum – we hope to be celebrating with you in another 25 years time!
David Hodgson is currently attending down in Toulouse, France. He's delighted to be part of this year's landmark gathering – especially as Pesky also have something exciting to celebrate regarding Cartoon Forum…
We can finally announce that ALL FOUR projects that Pesky have taken to Cartoon Forum over the years have been GREEN-LIT!
Pesky's first Cartoon Forum was the memorable Llandudno, Wales in 2002! We nervously pitched 'Invisible INK' to a packed room, not knowing where it would lead to.
It was a few years later that Samka Productions brought together all the financing and gave the project a revamp to make 'Mission Invisible' (or as it's known in English speaking territories 'I.N.K. Invisible Network of Kids'.)
The next year we went to Varase, Italy with 'The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers!' An excited panel gave a fun pitch with 'live satellite link up' to the brothers in 'Rendoosia!' Our trip to Cartoon Forum helped us secure the final pieces of the financial jigsaw – and a year later we were in production making 78 x 7 min episodes.
'The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers!' went on to win a Pulcinella award and BAFTA for best children's animation.
2009 was a trip to Stavanger, Norway to pitch 'Billion Dollar Bow-Wow.' And we are proud to say that 5 years later this project is now fully financed and will be going into production soon. We can't say more than that at the moment – but will keep you posted!
Our fourth Cartoon Forum pitch was 'Boj & Buddies' in Sopot, Poland, 2011. A really fun pitch where David Hodgson, Claire Underwood and Dave Ingham wore some fabulously fetching, furry Boj ears…
© Valerie de Halleux / CARTOON
Within 18 months 'Boj & Buddies' had been further developed and renamed to a simpler 'Boj.' Production of 50 x 11 mins plus a 22 min special is now complete and showing on CBeebies, RTE jnr, ABC 4Kids and very soon Sprout, France 5 and many more!
Pesky would like to sincerely thank Cartoon Forum for creating a such a wonderful event! You've been pivotal in helping small companies like us make their big dreams come true!
Happy 25th Birthday!

The Nosey Intern Episode IV – Bobby Riley
Interviewing Bobby was an Imperial-Starshipload of fun… probably because a good portion of the questions were Star Wars related. Although, Bobby preferring BB8 over R2D2 is a little outrageous… R2D2 is a classic!
On this week's episode of 'The Nosey Intern' we took a swing at interviewing Bobby, our digital developer.
If you missed any of the previous episodes you can check them out, as well as follow us on Vimeo, here:
Compass Marketing & Consulting on Vimeo
Be sure to LIKE our Facebook Page to never miss a #teamcompass video!
1. What's your favorite character in Star Wars? Darth Maul.
2. What's your favorite app? Instagram.
3. Get ready, this is a tough one! R2D2 or BB8? BB8.
4. What's your favorite thing about being a web developer? Handing off a finished product.
5. How about the most frustrating thing? Wondering why my code doesn't work.
6. How did you first get into web development? I started messing around with game development when I was around 12.
7. Alright, do you see yourself as a Jedi or a Sith? A Sith!
8. And what's your favorite go-to hangout spot in Tallahassee? The Skate Park
9. Alright, and how long have you been working at Compass? A little over five years.
10. And what's your favorite thing about working at Compass? The vibe, and that I can bring my dog here.
Bobby then goes into what appears to be Sith rage-fit after being told to "Live Long and Prosper." It's best to keep those universes parallel…

New social media sites are rolling out more quickly than anyone can keep up. One of the newest sites on the scene is Ask.fm—a site where students can ask questions with the option of being anonymous has led students to be mean and deceitful to their peers.
Across the board students are becoming more obsessed with sites like Ask.fm, Tumblr, Instagram, and SnapChat that allow them to "fly under the radar". It is becoming more difficult to keep up with new social media sites and to monitor students' online activity. This in turn has lead to an increasingly large amount of cyber safety cases.
What This Means for Educators
Educators understand the benefits of using social media as a teaching tool within the classroom. If used correctly, social media provides students with an impactful and engaging learning experience. Yet, educators need to be aware of safety issues when using social media sites, such as cyber bullying, pornography, connections with online predators, and suicide discussions. They need to understand that these are happening right on the school grounds, and they need to take steps to protect their students.
Schools should:
- Help students understand what information should be private.
- Talk to students about cyber bullying
- Educate students about the threats of online predators.
- Encourage students to report concerns to authorities.
- Implement a safe learning solution that will filter and monitor online communication amongst students.
The Benefits of Implementing Gaggle
Gaggle can provide a line of defense as you work to provide a safe environment for your students online.
Gaggle's online teaching and learning platform has various safety features in place that safeguard students such as specialized screening processes, Gaggle Safety Management and controlled communication. All of these and many other features work to constrain students using Gaggle from foul play.
Gaggle also helps protect students that register for other social sites. If students register for sites like Ask.fm with their Gaggle email account, notifications from the social sites are sent to school-provisioned Gaggle accounts and are filtered and monitored with Gaggle's safety features.
Social media can lead to positive learning and teaching opportunities within the classroom. Still, understanding how students are using social media both inside and outside the classroom should be important to you and your faculty. Ensure you are taking the proper precautions to keep students safe while they are in your care. Work with your IT team and administration to implement a safe online teaching and learning platform like Gaggle. With Gaggle, you will receive the benefits of an engaging social learning experience within a safe learning environment.

A Season-Ending Loss for Spurs; A Celebration of Ginobili
Golden State completed a 4-game sweep and remain unbeaten in the playoffs, 12-0 as they move on to their third straight NBA Finals.
Rivard Report (https://therivardreport.com/author/mike-monroe/)
Golden State completed a 4-game sweep and remain unbeaten in the playoffs, 12-0 as they move on to their third straight NBA Finals.
It is now evident to even the most fervently hopeful San Antonians that the Spurs are not advancing to the 2017 NBA Finals, not without Kawhi Leonard.
With Kawhi Leonard at the team hotel, rather than Oracle Arena, the Spurs suffered one of the worst playoff losses in franchise history.
The Spurs suffered a devastating 113-111 loss in Game 1 of their NBA Western Conference Finals playoff series against the Golden State Warriors.
Popovich never mentioned President Trump by name, but it was whom he referring to when he labeled the conduct of "one individual" as embarrassing.
It was the largest winning margin in a road playoff victory in Spurs history and just one point shy of the largest playoff win in club history, home or away.
Manu Ginobili's block of Rockets star James Harden's 3-point attempt with less than one second left in overtime preserved a 110-107 victory.
The Rockets understood the daunting prospect of returning to San Antonio if they fell behind 3-1, with Game 5 to be played on Tuesday night at AT&T Center.
A 103-92 Spurs victory, gives San Antonio a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven series and regains home court advantage.
A Thursday morning MRI revealed what Parker and the team feared: A complete rupture of his left quadriceps tendon that requires surgery.

As I mentioned in the previous post, I enjoyed the Customer Experience Exchange 2010 in Monte Carlo earlier this week. I couldn't go to all of the sessions, but here are highlights from some of the speakers that I saw:
- Andrew Gerrie, Co-Founder and CEO at Lush. Andrew followed me on stage and dropped a bath bomb into a clear tub of water and we watched it fizz. I still remember the first Lush store that I went into. The salesperson came over with a bucket of water and dropped some of those bombs into it and water splashed on to the floor. She didn't seem to mind. That was an experience! Andrew explained how those in-store demonstrations force employees to have conversations with customers. It also helps them attract employees who really like Lush products. Lush invests a lot in training its employees so that they can answer a wide range of questions about skin care; even beyond what their products can do. He also shared pictures from the company's "Naked Products Campaign" where employees wear nothing but an apron to highlight the fact that Lush products are "naked" of preservatives and complex packaging. Click here to see some images on Google of that campaign.
- Ingrid Lindberg, Chief Experience Officer at CIGNA. It's always great to see my friend Ingrid. Although I keep close tabs on what she's been up to at CIGNA, it was great to hear her talk about CIGNA's customer experience story. They've done so many good things to make CIGNA more customer centric; including eliminating words that are confusing to customers (there's a lot of them in the US healthcare system), making the call center accessible 24×7, and improving the usability of the website. These efforts haven't just increased loyalty, they've also improved medical outcomes for their customers. Proof positive that good customer experience saves lives 🙂 I'll be doing a case study on CIGNA — look for it in a few weeks.
- Moira Dorsey, VP & Research Director at Forrester. I really enjoyed catching up with Moira, another friend who I sat next to for several years at Forrester. Her speech discussed how the future of online customer experience can be described with the acronym CARS: Customized, Aggregated, Relevant, and Social. To showcase what the future will be like, she highlighted some existing practices, noting this quote from the science fiction writer, William Gibson: "The future is already here – it's just not very evenly distributed."
- Simon Glynn, Senior Partner at Lippincott. Simon's presentation introduced a model of brands based on two dimensions: Authentic Stories (story power) and Inspiring Experiences (experience power). He showed how using these in a 2×2 diagram leads to 4 quadrants of brands: Unattached (low on stories and experiences), Myths (high on stories, low on experiences), Tribal (low on stories, high on experiences), and Legends (high on stories and experiences). It turns out that Legends (like Amazon.com and O2) have an average 5-year growth rate of 8% compared to -4% for Unattached brands (like BT and Aldi).
- Rob Siefker, Senior Manager Customer Loyalty at Zappos. After having interviewed CEO Tony Hsieh a few years ago, I've always been a fan of the Zappos story. The culture at Zappos is almost cult-like. And they can keep it that way, because as Rob described: It's harder to get a job at Zappos than to get into Harvard; they only hire 1% of applicants. The interview process is tuned to find people who will buy-in to the culture; a couple of the questions they ask are "what would your theme song be, and why?" and "On a scale from 1 to 10, how weird are you?" The company replaced its standard reviews with cultural reviews, making it clear that it measures its managers in 4 key areas: driving the culture, inspiring new ideas and creative thinking, helping employees find their calling and reach their peak, and providing recognition.
- Graham Webster, Director of Customer Experience at Telefonica O2 Europe. Graham discussed how the company's vision helps engage employees in "something bigger than themselves" and how Telefonica is trying to go beyond satisfaction to turn customers into FANS. I loved when he said "If we look after our customers, they will take care of our brand. Customers complain, but FANS forgive." The company researched the value of enthusiastic customers compared to detractors and found that they: have half the churn rate, deliver 9% more in average revenue per user, and generate less than one-fifth of the claims. Graham described a three-step evolutionary path: Random Experience to Predictable Experience to Branded Experience. What are the elements of a Branded Experience? Consistent, Intentional, Differentiated, Valuable, and Emotional Relationship.
- Roger Sant, VP Research Solutions at Maritz. Roger talked about "making your customers fall in love with you." He showcased results from a survey of 1,200 consumers that looked at emotional and functional attributes for banks, supermarkets, and mobile phones. The research pointed to three levels of relationship between a customer and the brand: Unfulfilled, Functionally Satisfied, and Emotionally Connected. Here's the comparison of top box scores between Unfulfilled customers and Emotionally Connected customers: retention (9% to 58%), recommend (3% to 49%), and cross-sell (7% to 41%).
- Frederico Cesconi, Director Of Business Intelligence at Cablecom. Frederico shared the companies model which looks at customer experience as a series of layers (going from inside to the outside): Systems, Processes, Touchpoints, Interactions, Customer, and Experience. The company focuses on 4 core processes: sales to activation, service assurance, incident handling, and billing to cash. He showed a wonderful report that they call a "Survival Analysis." It charted churn rate against the number of negative incidents that a customer had run into — highlighting the cost of a bad experience. He also highlighted the need for customer feedback. Their internal metrics showed 83% first call resolution, but when they measured it with customers it turned out to be only 58%.
The bottom line: Monaco hosted the customer experience grand prix this week.

The migration crisis is on the verge of tearing the European Union apart. The basic foundation of the EU is based on an open border policy and joint cooperation in economic and social issues on nytimes.com. The EU is a European version of the United States, but it lacks the continuity of leadership and the ability to get member states to adhere to some of the edicts the EU puts out. The migration crisis has closed the borders of several EU members, and one of the major powers in the EU, Britain, is leaving the union. The leaders of the European Union have offered Turkey a sizable amount of money to keep millions of refugees from crossing into EU member countries, but that is the only attempt the EU has made to solve the most devastating event in recent history.
Hedge fund investor and social justice advocate, George Soros, has been trying to get the EU to offer refugees a new start, but the threat of terrorism has been a damper on any attempt by the European Union to solve the migration crisis. So, Soros, the social champion, has developed a plan to help migrants get a fresh start. Soros recently announced that he would invest $ 500 million in startup companies owned by refugees, according to an article published by politico.com. He also said he would invest in companies that helped refugees get a fresh start. Soros doesn't expect a return on his investment. His nonprofit organizations are handling the details and the investments that are made to new refugee companies.
George Soros is no stranger when it comes to giving money away to causes he believes will help the world. Soros' Open Society Foundation is helping more than 100 countries establish democratic principles, and Soros is personally donating millions of dollars to the Democratic Party in the Unite States. Soros wants another Clinton in the White House, and he has donated more than $8 million to get her elected. But when all his donations are added up, Soros has invested more than $25 million this election year to elect Democratic candidates on Time at the state and the federal levels.
At last count, George Soros has more than $25 billion in his bank account. His Soros family hedge fund has more than $25 billion in assets under management on Bloomberg. He is the 32nd richest human on the planet, and he continues to add personal wealth to his current fortune at an incredible rate. At the ripe age of 85-years-old, Soros is still an astute investor and businessman. But he is also a social reformer and an economic expert. Soros made the decision years ago to donate his money so others would know what freedom feels like, and he will never stop doing that.

The School of Theatre and Dance prepares students for careers in the performing arts as artists, scholars and educators.
The school's production season serves as the primary laboratory for the development of student artistic expression and technique. As performing arts, theatre and dance reflect and communicate cultural values and identities intrinsic to human existence. As such, the study of theatre and dance is central to the humanities curriculum.
At the undergraduate level, the School of Theatre and Dance at Kent State University offers comprehensive programs in theatre and dance leading to Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees. Students may also pair their studies with other majors by pursuing a minor in dance or a minor in theatre.
The breadth of the School of Theatre and Dance's programs is suggested by its course offerings, which cover the areas of acting, directing, musical theatre, theatre history, script analysis, playwriting, technical production, scenery, lighting, costume design, make-up, theatre management, modern dance, ballet, jazz, dance composition, dance history and dance science.

This past weekend, I went to my niece's birthday party. Her mommy always makes the cutest cakes and cupcakes. Here is a design that she found in the Family Fun Magazine. You melt white chocolate with a little bit of vegetable oil and place in a zip-lock bag (or frosting bag). Print a figure from your computer or draw on a piece of paper. Cover the print with wax paper and squeeze the chocolate out of the bag (make sure to cut a small hole at the tip of bag) while tracing the design. While still warm, shake some sprinkles on the chocolate. Allow to cool and decorate….enjoy!
This was such a great idea and thought I would share it with my readers. Thanks Becky for the fun idea! Cute & Edible! You can get all the detailed Fluttercup directions here.

What is Thoracic Wall En Bloc Resection?
The thoracic wall is comprised of the ribs, sternum, thoracic vertebrae, and nerves and the muscles associated with respiration, particularly the diaphragm. En bloc resection of the thoracic wall is a surgical technique used to remove one or more ribs from the rib cage. This is done to treat cancer of the ribs. A specialized mesh will replace the resected rib(s), and will protect the inner organs of the thoracic wall from damage.
Book First Walk Free!
Thoracic Wall En Bloc Resection Procedure in Dogs
- A blood sample will be analyzed to ensure it is safe for the dog to undergo general anesthesia.
- General anesthesia will be administered intravenously. An endotracheal tube is put into place to administer anesthesia throughout the procedure. An x-ray is taken prior to surgery to visualize the mass.
- The thorax is shaved, cleaned, and clipped.
- The surgeon will incise the skin, subcutaneous tissues, and muscles respectively according to the location of the mass.
- An oscillating saw is used to cut the rib.
- A portion of polypropylene mesh is cut. This will replace the resected rib(s) to protect the inner contents of the thoracic wall.
- The mesh is sutured to the rib(s) and intercostal muscles.
- A thoracostomy tube is put into place to drain any fluid or air present.
- The overlying muscles are sutured to the graft. This is done to cover the edges of the graft.
- The subcutaneous muscles and skin are sutured to close the incision.
- Air is then drained from the thoracic cavity through the thoracostomy tube.
- The dog will be hospitalized for up to five days.
Efficacy of Thoracic Wall En Bloc Resection in Dogs
The efficacy of this procedure will vary based on the overall health of the dog and the severity of the cancer at the time of treatment. Even with treatment, the dog's prognosis is typically poor to grave, especially if the tumors have metastasized. Osteosarcoma and chondrosarcoma are both highly malignant, and spread rapidly. En bloc resection of the thoracic wall is often palliative, or done to relieve the dog's pain rather than to treat the underlying condition.
This procedure is very effective for benign tumors, although these types of tumors are rarely operated on due to the invasive nature of the surgery.
Thoracic Wall En Bloc Resection Recovery in Dogs
The thoracostomy tube will be removed after twenty-four hours. During hospitalization, the dog will be monitored for signs of pneumothorax, or the buildup of air in the thoracic cavity which causes lung collapse. Pain management medications will be administered throughout hospitalization.
On the return home, dogs should rest extensively according to surgeon instructions. They should not play or engage in activity. Some dogs may need to be confined to a crate. The dog may need to wear an Elizabethan collar or bandage to avoid aggravating the surgery site. Bandages should be changed each day, and kept clean and dry at all times. Owners should check the suture site daily, monitoring for swelling, bleeding, or drainage. If any of these occur, veterinary advice should be sought. The sutures will be removed within fourteen days of surgery. Additional follow-up appointments are scheduled as needed to monitor the condition and administer other treatments.
Cost of Thoracic Wall En Bloc Resection in Dogs
The cost of thoracic wall en bloc resection will vary based on standards of living and additional costs incurred. The price of thoracic wall resection, inclusive of diagnostic testing, postoperative hospitalization, and the cost of additional treatments, ranges from $3,000 to $10,000, with an average cost of $6,000.
Dog Thoracic Wall En Bloc Resection Considerations
Though the technique itself is highly effective and there are few postoperative complications associated with it, cancer recurrence is commonly seen. This is attributed to the metastatic nature of the disease.
Complications with en bloc resection of the thoracic wall include, but may not be limited to:
- Pleural effusion: Buildup of fluid in the pleural cavity, near the lungs
- Recurrence of the condition
- Forelimb edema: Swelling of the forelimb due to effusion
Pleural effusion and forelimb edema typically resolve by themselves. However, owners should always consult their veterinarian as soon as complications arise.
Owners should note that this is an expensive procedure that may not cure the underlying condition or prevent recurrence. The surgeon will discuss the risks and benefits of the procedure with the owner prior to surgery, and will also explore other treatment options.
Thoracic Wall En Bloc Resection Prevention in Dogs
Cancer is difficult to prevent in dogs. Owners should be able to recognize the signs of cancer, and seek immediate veterinary attention as soon as symptoms arise to secure the best possible prognosis.

Want To Buy Husqvarna Platinum 16
Laurie Ott posted a topic in For Sale - Used Quilting MachinesLooking to buy Husqvarna Platinum 16 longarm with table.
Located in Central Florida. Asking price: $9500 OBO I am selling my beautiful, low-stitch, impeccably maintained machine at an incredibly low price! Note: The Crown Jewel 3 includes the easy to use dial-in tension dial not found in previous versions of the Crown Jewel. And the Momentum frame allows you to quilt a bigger design than in a standard frame, though you can also bypass that feature and use the tension bar as a dead bar. Purchased in November, 2015, used personally, not commercially,, this machine comes with the 10' Momentum frame and has the ProStitcher Premium software. With a simple click you can have it free motion, or lock the gears to sew just vertically or horizontally. It has a low bobbin sensor, and a digital tension dial so it is easy to dial in the perfect tension! This has been an absolutely great machine; I am just ready to upgrade to a 26" Millie! By the way, it has just been serviced, waiting for its new owner. It also comes with front and back handles and screen, bobbin winder, and extra M bobbins. I am throwing in the ruler base, extra bobbins, the UV lights I purchased for extra lighting. the must-have Glide foot, plus the open toe foot, as well as the leaders, and the blue snap-ones which provide the tension when floating the topper and batting. I also have 3 Pantographs if you're interested. As if that is not enough, it also comes with the 4-Year Love of Knowledge that I never registered to my name, so you can register it to yours. It gives you complete access to all of Babylock's Sew At Home classes (videos and class notes), including classes on the Crown Jewel and the Momentum frame. We will help you disassemble, explain to you how to assemble, and show you how,to use both the machine and the software. I will continue training support even after you have taken the machine home.

We are moving so I must part with my quilting machine. It is a basic free motion machine. The APQS Ultimate. The table is 14' long.

I have an opportunity to purchase a My QuiltBug, EQ 20 Longarm quilting machine and frame at a good price. I have been piecing for some years and recently started watching for a good buy on a quilting machine because I would really like to quilt my own pieced quilts. Unfortunately, I have been studying about other machine manufacturers and therefore know very little about My QuiltBug machines or the Eclipse company. Anyone have any information, I would be very appreciative.
Has this happened to anyone?
AnnP posted a topic in Troubleshooting & TipsHas this happened to anyone. I turned off Lucey. 10 minutes later went back to take out the bobbin and oil her. The needle wont lift. It wont move at all. I got the needle out and the bobbin and still nothing. I checked to see if anything got unplugged. Dont know what else to check, Ill call in the am, but thought someone here might know what to do. Just took off a customer quilt, loaded another, then took it off and thats when it happened. This is such an awesome machine. I have been quilting the last 3 or 4 quilts without the stitch regulator. Really distraught about this, but I hope its a simple solution to the problem. Need to load another quilt. Thanks to anyone that can help.

I know this woman from CVS. We have talked about a dozen times from anywhere to two minutes to half and hour. Tomorrow(now today) is Christmas. I asked her what she was doing, just for the sake of conversation and she said nothing, she then asked "what do you want my number?" then gave it to me. She was very forward and very cool though. She is 32 and I am 24. ll be honest. every time I've talked to her I was high (opiates,(I am prescribed the opiates for an injury).) and she knew because I told her. the main question I am asking is since she is not doing anything for Christmas would it be weird to invite her over. I honestly don't think she would think it's moving to fast because it is not like I want her to meet my family or anything, I would obviously introduce her as a friend. I live my my mother and my aunt lives in the basement, I'm confused. I do like and I even if she is cutting me some slack she's still a woman and if I am too open I feel I could still fuck this up.

Legal reforms 'could help reduce domestic abuse levels'
Proposed legal reforms could significantly help reduce the level of domestic abuse, according to one of Scotland's most senior prosecutors.
Solicitor general Lesley Thomson QC believes removing corroboration requirements would protect victims.
The recommendation, from a senior judge, is still to be debated by MSPs.
Ms Thomson will tell a conference in Edinburgh on Wednesday that corroboration often proves a real obstacle in bringing cases to court.
It is regarded as a cornerstone of Scots law and means one piece of evidence must be backed up by another.
But the solicitor general said domestic violence, like rape, typically occured where there were no independent witnesses.
Fair trial
She said: "It cannot be acceptable in a modern legal system that in order to bring criminal proceedings in cases which typically occur in private, we are left in the hands of fortune as to whether or not there happens to be corroboration."
She will tell the Domestic Abuse in Scotland conference that prosecutors must ensure a fair trial for those accused of committing domestic abuse. But she said victims also had rights.
"It is necessary that such rights are protected by an effective system for the prevention, investigation and prosecution of crime," she said.
"In such a system, prosecutions with evidence of a perfectly good quality to convince a sheriff or jury of an accused's guilt should not founder on the basis of an antiquated technical requirement, heralding from centuries before a woman could vote, own property or give evidence in criminal proceedings."
A review headed by the senior judge Lord Carloway recommended in November 2011 that the requirement for corroboration should be removed from Scottish criminal trials.
He wrote: "It is an archaic rule that has no place in a modern legal system where judges and juries should be free to consider all relevant evidence and to answer the single question of whether they are satisfied beyond reasonable doubt that the accused person committed the offence libelled."
His report said abolition would bring Scots law into line with modern thinking on how to approach evidence in criminal cases.
The Scottish government said it was considering a package of measures including the abolition of the corroboration requirement, and would begin a consultation process shortly.

Rutgers University Libraries are pleased to announce the online availability of several new databases, with OVID interfaces which allow multi-file searching of up to five (5) databases. These databases include:
AIDSLINE(AIDS Information Online), produced by the U.S. National Library of Medicine, is a collection of bibliographic citations focusing on research, clinical aspects, and health policy issues related to AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome). This database includes articles from over 3,000 journals published worldwide, as well as government reports, letters, technical reports, meeting abstracts and papers, monographs, special publications, theses, books, and audiovisual materials. Information in the AIDSLINE database is derived from the following sources: MEDLINE, Health Planning and Administration, meeting abstracts from the International Conferences on AIDS, the Symposia on Non-human Primate Models of AIDS, and AIDS-related abstracts from the Annual Meetings of the American Society of Microbiology.
BioethicsLine, produced jointly by the Kennedy Institute of Ethics and the U.S. National Library of Medicine, includes English-language materials on bioethics. Documents are selected from the disciplines of medicine, nursing, biology, philosophy, religion, law, and the behavioral sciences. Selections from popular literature are also included. Covered document types include journal and newspaper articles, monographs, court decisions, bills, laws, and audiovisual materials. Approximately 100 primary sources and 40 indexes and databases are scanned for citations.
CancerLit, produced by the U.S. National Cancer Institute, is an important source of bibliographic records (most with abstracts) pertaining to all aspects of cancer therapy, including experimental and clinical cancer therapy; chemical, viral and other cancer causing agents; mechanisms of carcinogenesis; biochemistry, immunology, and physiology of cancer; and mutagen and growth factor studies. Some of the information in CancerLit is derived from the MEDLINE database. Approximately 200 core journals contribute a large percentage of the records. In addition, other information is drawn from proceedings of meetings, government reports, symposia reports, theses, and selected monographs. Indexed materials include articles from journals, abstracts of papers presented at professional meetings, government and technical reports, dissertations, and monographs.
Health and Psychosocial Instruments (HAPI) provides ready access to information on measurement instruments (i.e., questionnaires, interview schedules, checklists, index measures, coding schemes/manuals, rating scales, projective techniques, vignettes/scenarios, tests) in the health fields, psychosocial sciences, organizational behavior, and library and information science. HAPI assists researchers, practitioners, educators, administrators, and evaluators, including students, to identify measures needed for research studies, grant proposals, client/patient assessment, class papers/projects, theses/dissertations, and program evaluation.
HealthSTAR contains citations to the published literature on health services, technology, administration, and research. It focuses on both the clinical and non-clinical aspects of health care delivery. The following topics are included: evaluation of patient outcomes; effectiveness of procedures, programs, products, services and processes; administration and planning of health facilities, services and manpower; health insurance; health policy; health services research; health economics and financial management; laws and regulation; personnel administration; quality assurance; licensure; and accreditation. HealthSTAR is produced cooperatively by the U.S. National Library of Medicine and the American Hospital Association. The database contains citations and abstracts (when available) to journal articles, monographs, technical reports, meeting abstracts and papers, book chapters, government documents, and newspaper articles from 1975 to the present. Citations are indexed with the National Library of Medicine's Medical Subject Headings in order to ensure compatibility with other NLM databases. Information in HealthSTAR is derived from MEDLINE, the Hospital Literature Index, and selected journals. Additional records specially indexed for this database do not appear in any other NLM database. HealthSTAR replaces the former Health Planning and Administration database.
PreMEDLINE (PREM), the National Library of Medicine's (NLM) in-process database for MEDLINE, provides basic information and abstracts before a record is indexed with MeSH heading(s) and added to MEDLINE. PreMEDLINE, like MEDLINE itself, encompasses information from Index Medicus, Index to Dental Literature, and International Nursing, as well as other sources of coverage in the areas of allied health, biological and physical sciences, humanities and information science (as they relate to medicine and health care, communication disorders, population biology, and reproductive biology). New records are added daily* to PreMEDLINE, appearing when the content of the record meets the scope of the PreMEDLINE database. After MeSH terms, publication types, GenBank accession numbers, and other indexing data are incorporated into a PreMEDLINE record; the completed citation is added to MEDLINE. Completed PreMEDLINE records are added as citations to MEDLINE on a weekly basis. (*Ovid downloads records from NLM daily, but is dependent upon the National Library of Medicine's update schedule.)
Each of these new databases can be accessed from the front page of the Libraries website, either through Library Catalog or by following the path Indexes / [Name of Database].
For instructions on how to use the OVID interface to perform multi-file searching, with the capability to eliminate duplicate records from the search results, please use the small blue [ ? Help ] button located in the top right corner of each database's homepage.

Poems, Poems, Everywhere!
Create a print-rich environment and spark children's interest in print by using some of these ideas to display poetry in your classroom.
Language Experience Charts - Write poems on language experience charts and hang around the classroom.
Hint! If you hang them on a pants hanger or attach with book rings to a regular hanger, you can move them around the room to different locations.
Posters - Write poems that relate to seasons or holidays on posters. Let children decorate them with markers, crayons, paint, or other art media.
Bulletin Board - Create a special bulletin board for displaying favorite poems or original poems that children write.
Classroom Door - Post poems on your classroom door. Have children recite them as they are waiting to go out into the hall.
Pocket Chart - Write poems on sentence strips and use them in a pocket chart. Mix sentences up like a puzzle and have children put them back in order.
Chalk Board - Write favorite poems on your chalkboard or dry erase board and use them for shared reading activities.
Teacher's Desk - Post poems on the front of the teacher's desk, a file cabinet, on the bathroom door, etc.
Picture Frame - Place poems that children enjoy or their original poems in picture frames and hang them on the wall.
Poetry Tree - Use an old Christmas tree or stick several large, dry branches in a pot of sand. Write poems on index cards and then attach them to the tree with clothespins. Encourage children to "pick a poem" and read!
Poetry Corner - Dedicate a special corner or nook in your classroom to poetry! Place pillows, bean bags, poetry books, charts, a walkman with tapes of poems, puppets, twinkle lights, and other props to "entice" children to read and listen to poems.
Creation Station - How about a writing area where children will be encouraged to construct their own poems? Place magnetic poetry words (available at dollar stores and book stores), magnetic boards, rhyming games, overhead transparency and markers, pens, pencils, colored pencils, chalk, paper, blank books, colored paper, notepads, envelopes, construction paper, stickers, glue, chalk board, wipe off board, clip boards, stamps and other writing instruments in this center. The items can be stored in a tub, basket, or on a shelf.
Poem a Day - Choose a poem each day and read it to your class at the beginning of the day. Sometimes, you might simply read it and "let it be." Other times, you can use the poem to introduce vocabulary or to spark a discussion. Post poems in the classroom and then store them in a "poetry treasure box" so children can enjoy them over and over.

Beertails: The Birds & The BrewsEdit Post
Contributed by on Aug 26, 2013
Eleven readers love this post.
The hottest thing in your glass this fall will also be the coolest. "Beertails are the next 'big things' in mixology," says Adam Seger, creator of Hum Botanical Liquor. "It is the perfect storm of the craft beer explosion and mixology renaissance." Get ready to see them everywhere. But the best examples won't be merely shades of the boilermaker or micheladas. True beer cocktails will follow closer to the classic definition of a cocktail—spirits, sugar, bitters and water. Or, in this case, beer.
Seger developed the rules for beertails, "the most chemically complex cocktails," with wine expert Doug Frost and Southern Wine & Spirits' Francesco Lafranconi and then revealed them at a Tales of the Cocktail seminar in July, along with Belgian beer importer Wendy Littlefield. Collectively, the rules are called the Rheinheitzgebeer, a play on Rheinheitzgebot, the Bavarian purity order of 1516 that defined beer as water, barley and hops (what did they know about yeast back then?)
The idea, Seger explained, is to build the cocktail in a pint glass half filled with ice, one that complements or contrasts the chosen beer (or vice versa). Familiarize yourself with the beer and the cocktail separately, then top the cocktail with about 5 ounces of beer. The brew's effervescence will act like an amplifier, delivering the combined aromas to your nose while you drink your way through the beer layer down to the brackish place where beer-meets-cocktail, then finish the cocktail.
"Beer adds a texture that takes cocktail enjoyment to the next level," Seger says. His first beertail, The Birds & The Brews, was inspired by memories of Strasbourg and its Amer Picon (Alsatian orange bitters, typically served with French country ale).
More insight: Lagers add bubbles and sweetness. Sours amp up acidity. Malty beers like malt whiskies. Chocolate-malt beers love sweet red sparkers, such as brachetto. Hops compete with other bitter cocktail components; save the IPAs for cleansing the palate after enjoying beertails. But remember: Don't shake beer in a cocktail shaker. You've been warned.
Find the recipe for Seger's The Birds & The Brews here.

Some of you may recognize the title of this post as a paraphrase of a line spoken by Angelo in Act II, scene 2 of Measure for Measure. The actual quotation begins "The law hath not been dead".
I think that the title is apt, since (for various reasons) there have been no posts to this blog since October 30 and I didn't want anyone to think that there is any problem with the Oberon group.
In fact, we are very much alive!
We are having our Annual Holiday Party this Saturday, January 5, 2013 at Hogan's Restaurant in Bloomfield Hills and then have our first group meeting on January 28, 2013 at the Bloomfield Township Library. There will be more details on these events in a later post.
We should all be looking forward to a new year with several expected events and opportunities to further our knowledge of Shakespeare and his times and to promote interest in the Authorship Question.
I am already looking forward to the next Annual Joint Conference of the SOS and SF in October, 2013 (dates to be announced), which will be held in Toronto, Ontario.
A side trip to Stratford, Ontario during the Conference is being planned as well, which might give conference attendees to see a production of the play which provided the title I gave to this blog (yes, Measure for Measure). They will also be doing The Merchant of Venice at Stratford in 2013.
Seeing these two plays together in one season is a great opportunity. They are the two plays where Shakespeare demonstrates most his knowledge of the ongoing debate (at the time the plays were written) about the relative merits of the "Law" Courts and the "Equity" Courts, i.e. the difference between strict application of the law and a more merciful attempt to apply the "spirit" of the law.
Where the author learned about these two types of jurisprudence is of course an important question in determining who he really was.
Oberon will likely be planning our own trip to Stratford during the upcoming season (maybe in July or August). Stay tuned for details on that as well.
Happy New Year to everyone!

Just like the perfect cup of Tieguanyin, a luxury break in Anxi is best enjoyed slowly. Here, the landscape is a deep-green patchwork of terraced tea plantations, winding up into the hills. Enjoy the tranquillity of an authentic tea ceremony, where this humble drink becomes an art form. Or seek inner peace on visits to ancient Buddhist temples. Then round off the relaxation with a stay in an exclusive boutique hotel.
Mist-capped hills and ancient temples in China's tea heartland.
Things to do
Close to Anxi, in the foothills of Penglai Mountain, you'll find Qingshui Yan Temple. Overlooking a deep ravine, this palace-style Buddhist temple dates back to the 11th century. For an insight into an ancient philosophy that shaped Chinese culture, visit the Anxi Confucian Temple. Here you can walk through the covered walkways that have stood for centuries and explore serene gardens lined with statues.
Anxi is famed throughout China for its tea – a source of fierce pride among the locals. In the countryside, tea terraces stretch for as far as the eye can see and each town is home to a teahouse or two. When it comes to enjoying a brew in China's tea capital, there's one variety you can't miss: Tieguanyin (Iron Boddhisatva of Compassion). This Oolong leaf is counted among the country's top 1o and has a light, refreshing taste.
While in Anxi, hop into the neighbouring county to visit Mount Qingyuan. It's peppered with ancient stone carvings, including nine huge Taoist and Buddhist sculptures. If you feel like travelling slightly further afield, wider Fujian Province boasts some of China's quirkiest buildings. Travellers flock to Yongding to see the curious Earth Towers – immense round houses with open centres that were home to whole villages.
Take a taste of Anxi home with you. Visit the Tea Trading Hall on Hebin North Road, where countless vendors sell leaves from local producers.

A complete assimilation of love, trust, amicablity, ardency and honesty is a must in any kind of relationship.
Here are some tips, which can help you more in your relationship:Put your love first Do not let your personal worries become a hurdle in your love entanglements.
Always, make your love partner feel that he/she holds an important place in your life.
Give a Hug – At times even tiny and apparantly insignificant gestures of love make a huge difference. As your love returns home after the day's work, hug him/her. This would surely ease out their stress and would set a lighter mood around.
It is better if you forgive her/his small mistakes just with a smile.
