Hi all... I'm working on my dough making chops, now that I have a backyard WFO.I have a KA Artisan which I dont love, and I tried out the Bosch and sent it back as it didnt seem right. I'm about to order the Electrolux Assistent (DLX), which is truly a fortune!But now looking around I'm seeing that maybe with the high hydration doughs the mixers arent so important anymore??? I'm seeing the stretch and fold technique etc, and actually maybe the mixer/kneading is more optional?I do want to make breads and pizza fairly often, so I do want to make it easier, but if I dont need to spend the big bucks that would be nice.thanks for any info, comments appreciated.Ben
Is stretch and fold somehow superior to using a decent mixer?

Hello Scott R,I have had Grande many times, but not Bacio cheese. In your opinion, which cheese tastes better? Is there a big difference in taste with the Buffalo milk added to the Bacio cheese. Thank youTomNPSI would love to hear comments from anyone else that has tried the two cheeses. I am looking for Flavor.
Not difficult whatsoever, Bob. Here's the link.http://www.ups.com/content/us/en/resources/start/account.htmlIf you want to do this, I suggest signing up with Paypal. I've used it for about 10 years now, and it's been hassle-free. Local payments, long-distance payments, no problem. A buddy in Belgium contracted me for some embroidery digitizing- paid through Paypal, had the money in my bank account within 24 hours. It's actually more of an international online bank - you can get a debit card, invest your balance in short-term yields, the works.
You are seeing Bacio in places because Roma aka Performance Food Group had a "break up" with Grande. So if you are a PFG customer, Grande is no longer available...they are pushing Bacio. I don't know the back story, but I'm guessing it's business...ie $$$.
I just want some cheese at a FAIR price man......
There is always Walmart...
Boy, ya know ...I had almost forgot about that. Is that where you buy your cheese?
Depends on the cheese.
Craig's cheese comes straight from the Vatican. Let me go find the link...
I did a shoot out at a pizzeria with bacio and grande today. This was a fairly hot oven... 650 on the floor. Bacio definitely tasted better, but burned sooner. A few of the employees were used as taste testers, and even with the extra browning everyone choose bacio. I think in a normal 550 degree oven bacio would be the cheese to get. Something has changed since the first time I tried this cheese. Its tasting better than it did when it first came out. Watch out grande
All I know is that if there is any buffalo milk actually in there I cant taste it.
I couldn't taste anything in it. I'm dead serious.
But I guess they don't want pizzeria owners knowing they get their cheese from the same firm that Pizza Slut and Domihoes down the street get theirs from.

The story of Garbetts Shoes by Jeffrey Stafford
It is about Garbetts Shoe shop and the Garbett family.
Garbetts Shop "Comfort Corner" on Newton Street / Manchester Road

Many thanks to Jeffrey. As always, a great account. :)

What a wonderful piece of history! I remember the shop well and always had my shoes from there.

Great article and great memories as our three children were shod at Garbett's from toddlers to teens.

Nice article Jeffrey on my great grandad William Garbett and his family, glad you were able to make use of some of my info and photos from my tree on the ancestry site. May I just add a bit more info on Williams wife Mary (nee Bowers) born in Ironbridge Shropshire 1856 (my great grandma) died on her 91st birthday Nov 1 1947, I think she must have been one tough old lady who just hung on in there to reach her birthday! (another comment will follow with a bit more info regarding the Garbetts)
- Friday, 03 August, 2012
its Trish again, I have a photo of me aged about eight months sat on great grandma Mary's knee, at her house on Apethorn Lane, my dad & grandad are stood behind us, so I did get to meet her! Frank Garbett (my great uncle)died 1950 and is buried with his mother, father and sister Hilda in Hyde cemetery. My grandad John(Jack)is buried with his dear wife May in Hyde cemetery just a few yds from his parents grave. Florence Garbett, the last born married when she was almost forty, and had her only child a year later in 1933. Isobel Garbett(the Motorbike lady from an earlier article I did) actually married Charles H Walmsley in 1922 not 1932, she was his second wife and Charlie was a fair bit older than her. I do remember us visiting great aunt Isobel and uncle Charlie in the 1950s, they lived on Baron Rd Gee Cross. Uncle Charlie was lovely, he taught us how to play crib. He was a regular at his favourite pub, The Queen Adelaide Gee Cross. Isobel Walmsley (nee Garbett) died in 1965 not 1955, and she was aged 79, I wanted to put that right, otherwise it looks like she was born years before her parents married!

USS Excelsior personnel
this wiki
This is a list of personnel who served aboard the Federation starship USS Excelsior.
Named Edit
Crew manifestEdit
Alien crewman Edit
This humanoid Starfleet member was on the bridge next to Valtane when the ship was hit by a subspace shock wave caused by the explosion of Praxis. He was also on the bridge when Captain Hikaru Sulu bade farewell to his friends on the USS Enterprise-A after helping to save the Khitomer Conference. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country; VOY: "Flashback")
Bridge crewmen Edit
These eight Starfleet crewmen served on the bridge of the Excelsior when the ship was by a subspace shock wave in 2293. They've tried to stabilize the Excelsior and were thrown through the bridge. After the ship left the shock wave they analyzed the actions and found out that the Klingon moon Praxis exploded.
They stood in a row on the bridge when Captain Sulu bade farewell to the crew of the Enterprise-A. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
Bridge crewmembers Edit
These Starfleet officers served aboard the Excelsior in 2293. They were on duty on the bridge when the Excelsior discovered the Azure Nebula and met the Klingon Commander Kang, after the Excelsior was hit by the shock wave which was created after Praxis exploded. (VOY: "Flashback")
Bridge security officers Edit
These two security officers were on duty aboard the Excelsior in 2293. They answered a call from Captain Sulu when he saw Kathryn Janeway on the bridge, due to the mind meld with Tuvok. Because of her uniform Sulu thought Janeway was an intruder and called for security. (VOY: "Flashback")
Deltan officer Edit
This Deltan officer served on the bridge of the Excelsior during the ship's early warp trial periods. She was on the bridge at the time the Excelsior was ordered to prevent the Enterprise from being stolen from spacedock. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)
Engineer Edit
This engineer was working in engineering during the Excelsior's collision with the shock wave in 2293. He contacted the bridge and asked what was going on up there. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
First officer Edit
The first officer was a Starfleet commander serving as number one to Captain Styles. He sat at the helm in 2285 when the ship's propulsion systems were sabotaged by Scotty when Excelsior attempted to pursue Enterprise out of spacedock. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)
Helmsman Edit
The female helmsman was a Starfleet crewman who served at the helm of Excelsior, when the starship attempted to pursue the Enterprise from Spacedock. She coordinated with the executive officer during the ship's failed attempt to engage its transwarp drive. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)
This male navigator was a Starfleet officer who served at the navigation console of the Excelsior when the starship made its foray into the Azure Nebula. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country; VOY: "Flashback")
Night-shift communications officer Edit
The communications officer was a Starfleet junior lieutenant who served in the communications department of Excelsior in 2293, during Captain Sulu's off hours.
In that year, he woke the captain to inform him of a communiqué from Starfleet Command requesting the whereabouts of starship USS Enterprise-A immediately prior to the Khitomer Conference. Captain Sulu ordered this officer to reply in the negative about Excelsior being in contact with Enterprise-A. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
Security personnel Edit
These two security officers beamed down to Camp Khitomer, along with Captain Sulu, just as Admiral Cartwright attempted to leave the conference prematurely. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
Sleeping crewmembers Edit
These six Excelsior crewmembers were off duty and sleeping in their crew quarters when the ship was hit by the shock wave. They fell off their beds. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)
Tuvok's roommates Edit
These two Starfleet officers shared their quarters on deck 7 aboard the Excelsior with Ensign Tuvok and Dimitri Valtane in 2293. All four officers were part of the gamma shift. (VOY: "Flashback")

Tobacco shop gets license
NEW ULM – The New Ulm City Council scrutinized an application for a tobacco shop in the former Smokes 4 Less building Tuesday and then approved it by a 4-1 vote.
The application was made by Kamal Kehelaouinet, of Marshall, through his business Marshall's Tobacco Inc. He hopes to operate "New Ulm Smoke Shop" and remodel the space before opening in July.
Kehelaouinet said he is fully aware of the controversy the Smokes 4 Less business last year. He stated he has neither plans to sell synthetic marijuana nor to encourage any illegal consumption of chemicals. He is willing to work with the Council and the New Ulm Police Department to resolve any concerns they have with his new business.
Given a chance
The Council questioned Kehelaouinet about the planned details of his business.
Councilor Les Schultz, who is also director of Brown County Probation Department, asked whether the store planned to sell "synthetic marijuana" and what percentage of the product sold would be drug paraphernalia.
Kehelaouinet said he does not plan to sell any product related to "synthetic marijuana" and that his store will only have 25 percent of its product described as drug paraphernalia.
The Council discussed adding conditions to the license banning the sale of "synthetic marijuana" or related paraphernalia, but City Attorney Hugh Nierengarten warned that the unsettled legality around both made crafting a ban that did not target legal products nearly impossible. However, he said the items the Council is concerned about are already banned by state law.
The Council ultimately voted to grant the license, with the presumption that it could revoke the license if the store violated the discussed problems. The license was passed on a four-to-one vote. Schultz cast the dissenting vote because drug paraphernalia would be sold in the store.
Ghost of stores past
Last year, the Council generated statewide attention by denying a cigarette license to the New Ulm Smokes 4 Less over accusations the store was selling "herbal incense" laced with synthetic cannabinoids, which are dangerous chemicals intended to replicate the high of marijuana.
Councilor Les Schultz, who is director of the Brown County Probation Department, led the charge against the store. He accused its operators of intentionally selling the product to circumvent drug laws. New laws have since been passed by the Legislature, clamping down on chemicals described as "synthetic marijuana" that were not illegal because they did not meet the chemical definition of banned products.
Store owners and supporters of the store fired back that the Council was unfairly discriminating against a single store selling a legal product and that the incense packages were clearly labeled "not for human consumption." The store owners also said that the incense was not laced with any of the described chemical nor any other illegal chemicals. NUPD officers purchased packages undercover and sent the substances to the state testing labs. However, the sheer volume of test requests has delayed results.
Smokes 4 Less eventually agreed last June to the Council's terms for reinstating the cigarette license, which banned the sale of both incense and synthetic cannabinoids in the store. However, the store closed in early August.
Police officers with knowledge of the situation said their sources confirmed the store was making $6,000 a day in sales.
Schultz said the Probation Department saw a jump in incidents of the youth it works with being caught with "synthetic marijuana," and that nearly every case linked back to the store. The probation department got 10 to 15 cases a week while the store operated. The rate has dropped to barely one case per week since the store closed, according to Schultz.
Kehelaouinet was charged with two cases of selling synthetic marijuana last year and ultimately entered an Alford Plea in December of 2012. The plea means the defendant does not admit guilt, but admits there is enough evidence to generate a conviction. He received a stay of adjudication in exchange for two years probation, 120 hours of Sentenced to Serve and allowing random checks of his business by law enforcement.
He confirmed that he was introduced to the New Ulm site by the former store manager.

I've been drinking Ippodo teas on a daily basis for the past few years (and on a semi regular basis for much longer). For quite a long time, I'd only order their top-shelf senchas, gyos, and matchas, but last summer, I began adding a few of their more budget friendly senchas to my shopping cart. I've now had a chance to try at least a few hundred grams of the following teas: Matsu-no-Midori (650 yen), Unro (800 yen), Nichi-getsu (1000 yen), and Shoike-no-o (1200 yen). My conclusion; they are all very solid teas, and in no way inferior to their more pricey selections. In fact, on a daily basis, I actually prefer them to Kaboku, Kumpu, or Hosen (which I now reserve for a few special sessions per week - like I do with gyo and matcha). To varying degrees, all of them have that Uji grassy flavor, slight bitterness/astringency, and enough umami lurking below the surface. Of course, the flavors can be custom tweaked by playing with brewing parameters.
My personal favorites for daily sencha are Unro and Shoike-no-o. Unro is on the clean/crisp side, but well balanced. A very "easy drinker". The Shoike-no-o has more richness/umami, but again, is very balanced.
I'm curious to find out what TCers have to say about these senchas, or Ippodo's more modestly priced gyos (which I haven't tried) and matchas (which I have, and enjoyed).

About this set: This is my "pride and joy" set as a Young Numismatist. Years after watching the fun my dad has from his silver classic commemorative set, I wanted to start a set of my own. This is the culmination of my efforts although I continue to seek PQ upgrades where appropriate. I do not purchase already slabbed coins. Instead, I get 3 or 4 raw coins. I grade them and submit the one I believe will receive the highest grade. My ultimate goal is that I remain the highest ranking Young Numismatist for this set in the world! Most importantly, this set is dedicated to my mom who has courageously fought breast cancer.

Adams and Monk World Premieres at San Francisco Symphony's American Mavericks Festival(February 2012)
Festival will showcase pioneering american composers, including works by Copland, Del Tredici, Mackey, and Reich
Michael Tilson Thomas and the San Francisco Symphony, celebrating its 100th season, will showcase pioneering works by path-breaking American composers as part of its month-long American Mavericks Festival, including works by six Boosey & Hawkes composers: John Adams, Aaron Copland, David Del Tredici, Steven Mackey, Meredith Monk and Steve Reich. Among the many works highlighted in the Festival—to be presented March 8–30, 2012 in San Francisco, Chicago, Ann Arbor and New York—are two world premiere commissions in honor of the centenary: Absolute Jest for full orchestra and string quartet by John Adams, and Realm Variations, scored for an ensemble of instrumentalists and vocalists by Meredith Monk.
John Adams, celebrated as an icon for his distinct and propulsive musical voice, has written his first piece for the unique arrangement of orchestra with string quartet in Absolute Jest (2011). Just as Stravinsky looked to Pergolesi in writing Pulcinella, so too did Adams by looking to the scherzos in Beethoven's celebrated late string quartets. This became the basis of including the string quartet component to the orchestra, as Adams wove in fragments from the original Beethoven works. The result is, as the composer notes, "a 25-minute high energy scherzo." Absolute Jest, co-commissioned by the San Francisco Symphony and Carnegie Hall, will be premiered by the orchestra with the St. Lawrence String Quartet, March 15–17, 2012 at Davies Symphony Hall. Additional performances during the Festival are March 21 at Chicago's Orchestra Hall, March 23 at Ann Arbor's Hill Auditorium, and March 27 at New York's Carnegie Hall. The London Symphony Orchestra performs the European premiere of Absolute Jest with the St. Lawrence String Quartet in January 2013 at the Barbican Centre.
Innovative and purely original, Meredith Monk pioneered an entire genre of musical expression through her exploration of the human voice. The 2012 Musical America Composer of the Year continues to chart new terrains with her latest piece, Realm Variations (2012). The new work, to be premiered by members of the San Francisco Symphony with Meredith Monk & Vocal Ensemble, highlights the piccolo, in which the "voices are like instruments and instruments are like voices," according to the composer. Monk adds: "The work is cast as a multi-sectional single movement. The variations are not classical in the sense that a single theme is viewed from various perspectives; these variations unfurl kaleidoscopically, as the realms interpenetrate." Realm Variations will be premiered on March 18 at Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco, with additional performances at Ann Arbor's Rackham Auditorium on March 25, and New York's Zankel Hall on March 30. Monk also performs selections from John Cage's Song Books on select dates with two other legendary vocalists: Joan La Barbara and Jessye Norman.
Also featured in the Festival are signature modernist works by Aaron Copland and David Del Tredici. Aaron Copland's Orchestral Variations, his 1957 re-imagining of Piano Variations (1930) which was composed using a 12-tone technique, is one of his most progressively modern works. The San Francisco Symphony performs the work at the opening concerts, March 8–9, at Davies Symphony Hall, and again March 22 at Ann Arbor's Hill Auditorium. A landmark work of mid-century atonalism, Syzygy (1966) by David Del Tredici sets to music two poems by James Joyce (Ecce puer and Night piece). The composer, celebrating his 75th birthday on March 16, scored the piece for two performing groups: one consisting of soprano, French horn and chimes, the other featuring a chamber orchestra. The Sunday Times (UK) in 1998 called Syzygy "the perfect demonstration of 1960s modernism as a living language." The Festival performances, featuring soprano Kiera Duffy, take place March 18 at San Francisco's Davies Symphony Hall, March 25 at Ann Arbor's Rackham Auditorium and March 29 at New York's Zankel Hall. Finally, the Festival presents Music for Pieces of Wood (1973) by the pioneering composer Steve Reich. This innovative exploration of sound, scored for five pairs of tuned claves, showcases how much can be done with simple parts, as rhythmic patterns shift and build over ten minutes Reich's work can be heard at San Francisco's Davies Symphony Hall, March 18, and at New York's Zankel Hall on March 30.
In addition to these orchestral concerts with the San Francisco Symphony, several other events are planned for the American Mavericks Festival at Carnegie Hall. The New York venue adds to the Festival a series of Neighborhood Concerts, where music by Adams (Road Movies (1995) for violin and piano and American Berserk (2001) for solo piano) and Steven Mackey (Physical Property (1992) for string quartet and electric guitar), among other composers' works, will be performed. In addition, Adams will speak with Michael Tilson Thomas and members of the St. Lawrence String Quartet on March 26 at 7:00 p.m. at WNYC's Greene Space, hosted by Q2 Music's Nadia Sirota and David Garland. This event will also be broadcast live on 105.9 FM in New York and via live webcast stream at thegreenespace.org. Q2 will also devote its programming throughout the month of March to music from the mavericks, featuring recordings and interviews with several of the Festivals' featured composers.
A special website has been created as a hub for all information pertaining to the American Mavericks Festival, featuring in-depth information about all the highlighted composers as well as audio and video interviews about their music. For more information, please visit americanmavericks.org.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by quilter My hair is great again! Many years ago (too long to count) I purchased a brush at a local business to help blow dry my hair---some natural curl--just enough to drive me crazy. I have been using that brush and it is ready to fall apart and imagine my great surprise to see one like it in your catalog. After receiving the brush in the mail, I can't believe how well crafted it is and so much like my orginial. Whew! Now I can don't have to worry about doing my hair again.... August 14, 2012

In the second quarter of 2011, Android overtook iOS to become the market share leader in mobile application downloads. The market shares of Android and iOS were 44% and 31%, respectively, according to ABI Research.
"Android's open source strategy is the main factor for its success. Being a free platform has expanded the Android device install base, which in turn has driven growth in the number of third party multi-platform and mobile operator app stores. These conditions alone explain why Android is the new leader in the mobile application market," said Shiyang, research associate at ABI.
Recent quarterly shipment growth figures also explain Android's ascent to the top app download position. iPhone shipment growth in Q2 2011 slowed to 9% from 15% a quarter earlier. In contrast, Android smartphone shipments increased 36% in Q2 2011, compared to 20% in Q1. Android's install base now exceeds iOS by a factor of 2.4-to-1 worldwide; by 2016 this factor will grow to 3-to-1, ABI claims.
"Despite leading in total mobile application downloads, Android's app downloads per user still lag behind Apple's by 2-to-1. Apple's superior monetization policies attracted good developers within its ranks, thus creating a better catalog of apps and customer experience," said Dan Shey, practice director of mobile services at ABI.
Global app downloads for year-end 2011 are expected to balloon to 29 billion, compared to only nine billion in 2010. Such stellar increases are largely due to the proliferation of smartphones around the world. The total smartphone install base is expected to grow 46% in 2011.

Alright then, what follows is a complex and detailed analysis of each of the three superloaders in paintball in order to help you better decide which one is right for you. Let me first begin by saying that no superloader is overall the "best" despite what people will argue over and over again. Each of the three is very good at what they do and they each have their own place in the loader hall of fame. This informational report is solely to show and explain how each is different or better in key areas.
I own all three superloaders and use each one of them an equal amount so I will attempt to be unbiased in this report. Originally I was planning on doing this report with only owning a Dye Rotor but after picking up a Prophecy for pretty cheap I decided the only way to accurately complete this report was to own all three. In time I picked up a Pinokio thus completing the superloader collection.
Please note that this analysis is on the Pinokio loader, the Empire Prophecy 2.0 Loader, and the Generation 3 Dye Rotor. Before going into great detail on each of the loaders I will briefly describe the criteria that each loader will be examined on:
1. Ball capacity – How many balls can it hold? Plus the capacity on any modified shells. Bear in mind that the amounts are based off of actually counting the paintballs rather than what the company claims.
2. Weight – How much does it weigh empty and full? w/ batteries of course
3. Height/Width/Length profile – How high is it, how wide is it? How much of a target does it make?
4. Batteries/efficiency – What kinds of batteries does it take? How many shots on fresh batteries?
5. Available settings – Is it a one push button loader or are there settings to tweak?
6. Ease of taking it apart/cleaning it/changing batteries – Is it hard to take apart? What tools are needed? If I break a ball inside will I be out for several games cleaning it?
7. Feed rate – How fast can it push balls into my wicked awesome marker?
8. Price – How much is it going to run me new? What about used?
9. Colors – Will it match my rainbow colored marker? How many different colors does it come in?
10. Aftermarket accessories – Stock loaders aren't my thing, what modifications can I add to it?
11. Reball compatibility – Can I use reballs with it?
12. Durability – Will it survive impacts on the field? Will it break easily?
13. Tendency to jam – How often does it tend to jam?
14. Ball detection system – What kind does it use?
15. Rip drive – Does it come with one? Nobody likes reaching their hand into the hopper to clear jams.
16. Position of feedneck in regards to Gun – Will the hopper tap you in the mask when you line the marker up to your nose?
17. Noise – How noisy is it?
Pinokio loader analysis:
We'll start this analysis off in alphabetical order and that means starting with the Pinokio or the 'Nokio as it is affectionately referred to. The Pinokio arrived on the market in 2008 and quickly became noted due to its optional large nose attachment (obviously how it gets its name). It is not as popular as the Prophecy or the Rotor despite being released before both of them. Popularity set aside it can still take a beating as well as dish it out. The Pinokio is most often slammed for its high profile and awkward looking shape when compared to the sleekness of the Rotor and Prophecy. The Pinokio comes with the large nose piece as well as a good snapping lid which is easy to open due to the fins of plastic that stretch back over the loader.
Ball capacity:
The main reason why the Pinokio gets as much attention as it does is because of its ability to hold a lot of paintballs plain and simple. With the standard nose installed it will hold approx. 240 paintballs and with the long nose a whopping 370 paintballs! If you are looking to hold a crazy amount of paint on the field or are an avid back player who needs a lot of suppression fire, the Pinokio is certainly worth a look. Attaching the nose attachment to your Pinokio hopper is a surefire way of getting noticed on the field and becoming the guy to watch out for, especially among the rental players.
The hopper weighs in at around 1 pound with the standard nose attachment making it the lightest of the three superloaders. Full with paintballs the standard Pinokio will weigh 2 pounds 13 ounces. With the long nose it weighs in at around 1 pound 7 ounces empty and 3 pounds 14 ounces with that lovely nose completely full.
The Pinokio has a height of 6 ¾ inches from the feedneck to the highest point making it the highest of the three superloaders. The width of the loader is 3 ¾ inches at its widest point. The length of the Pinokio loader with the standard nose is 9 ¼ inches and 18 inches with the long nose attached. Interestingly, the extended nose does not extend the width of the hopper so it does not make it a larger target from the front. Many players claim that the Pinokio's large nose offers a bigger target and that is true from the sides but certainly not when looking at the loader head on.
The Pinokio runs on two 9-volt batteries and is claimed to be able to feed 30+ cases or 60,000 shots on only those two little 9-volts. This makes it the most efficient of the three superloaders. Taking a look at battery cost the Pinokio gets only 0.000083 cents per shot which puts it second behind the Rotor (assuming the average cost of two 9-volts being $5). The Pinokio is also the only superloader to use 9 volt batteries as its standard power source, both of the other two superloaders use AA's out of the box.
Available settings:
There are no settings at all to fumble with on the Pinokio whatsoever and its simplicity is another factor that it is usually praised for. It involves one simple push button, it is either on or it is off, that's it. Its operation is so foolproof that the only literature included with the loader is a single piece of paper detailing a few simple processes like attaching the long nose piece. A simple LED light turns green indicating the loader is on and will flash red when feeding. A solid red light when not feeding indicates a low battery. Please note that if a Pinokio has an upgraded P-board the LED light will remain red all of the time.
Ease of taking it apart/cleaning it/changing batteries:
The Pinokio is the only superloader that does not come apart in your hands like the Prophecy and Rotor do. Still it is incredibly easy to clean as removing the top part of where the long nose attaches will enable you to get inside the Pinokio. To remove the propeller you are going to need at least a 6 inch screwdriver to get it out as it is deep inside the loader. The batteries can be easily changed on the Pinokio by simply sliding the battery compartment door off and then sliding it back on again, no tools necessary. The Pinokio can also be cleaned by using a spray bottle and cleaning the loader out with straight water.
Check out Mike's video on this:
Feed rate:
The Pinokio can feed an impressive rate of 20+ balls per second according to the makers of the Pinokio but it has been clocked much higher at around 30 bps. Obviously the Pinokio will feed as many balls per second as any tournament will allow.
The Pinokio is usually sold between 120 and 140 dollars new, putting it in between the Prophecy and Rotor selling points. The Pinokio tends to go for around 80 to 100 dollars used.
The three main colors the Pinokio comes in are black, smoke (transparent), as well as clear. Bear in mind that the black color option is the only color that is not transparent so it will require you to look through the lid to see how many balls are remaining. The clear color will obviously give you the advantage of being able to see the balls but it may make you more noticeable with bright paintballs inside. The smoke color is right in between as it gives you the ability to see paint as well as shading the color of the balls inside. There are also several less common colors found on the Pinokio website such as green camo and grey/black camo. "Pinoko hoppers" can also paint your Nokio any color if you contact them and purchase it from them directly.
Aftermarket accessories:
There are very few accessories for the Pinokio at the current time. Halo speedfeeds will fit on the Pinokio as Halo loaders use the same size opening. You can also get a Pinokio loader P board to improve the speed of your loader.
Reball compatibility:
Overall Pinokios tend to accept Reballs very well. Mike's video of shooting 5 pods of Reballs had no jams whatsoever.
Check out Mike's video on this:
While I don't have a specific video showing the Pinokio's durability, the loader is made to take and dish out a beating and is made of very strong plastic. Durability is a huge factor with the Pinokio as due to its unusual shape and swept back design it can be subject to different hits and impacts out on the field.
Tendency to jam:
Pinokios hardly ever jam, plain and simple. The simple design of the propeller inside makes jamming a very rare event out on the field. It is not uncommon for Pinokio owners to have never had a jam with their hopper. Evan from Pinokio hoppers claimed that the Pinokio does not have any sort of un-jamming device because the Pinokio simply never jams.
Ball detection system:
The Pinokio uses a bend sensor to know when balls need to be fed into the marker. This simple ribbon sensor sits in the feedneck and activates the propeller whenever a ball moves past it so the Pinokio only feeds when your marker is firing.
Rip drive:
The Pinokio has no rip drive and basically any Pinokio owner will tell you that one is hardly necessary. As stated, Pinokios have excellent track records.
Position of feedneck in regards to the marker:
The Pinokio is also known for its swept back design which can make it slightly awkward for players who are used to their loader being situated further ahead on their marker. The main reason for the Pinokio's swept back design is to give it some stability when the long nose is attached and eventually filled with paintballs. The Pinokio sweeps back a total of 6 inches from the back of the feedneck to the back the loader.
The running noise of the Pinokio is practically nothing at all though it seems to have the loudest running noise of the three superloaders, the Pinokio gives off almost a whining sound when feeding balls. Interestingly, since the propeller feeds about 5-7 balls per spin when you are shooting one ball every few seconds the propeller will spin like it is trying to feed those 5-7 paintballs. This adds to the noise level considerably if you are shooting paintballs one at a time at an intended target. As stated above the loader does not run when you are not firing so it will work well if you have the need to sneak up on someone in a woodsball game for example.
Overall the Pinokio is a great simple hopper and can hold more than any other hopper on the market. It's strengths include its simple foolproof operation and huge capacity options while its weaknesses include its bigger profile and "ugly" look according to some players. Sadly one of the main reasons the Pinokio is overlooked is because of its unique shape when compared to the other loaders on the market. Without a doubt the Nokio is a fantastic option for any player looking for a superloader.
Empire Prophecy 2.0 loader analysis:
The Prophecy is essentially a Halo styled loader on steroids. While its design might resemble the Halo's, the Prophecy is better than the Halo line in every way. The prophecy comes with a magnetic lid which uses a total of three magnets to make opening and closing a breeze, it also comes with a standard nose piece which holds 240 rounds (a 200 round nose piece and 280 round piece is available for separate purchase.) The Prophecy is a popular loader and is used by several professional teams as well as countless paintball players alike. The 2nd version of the Prophecy (2.0) comes with an upgraded drive belt as well as an aluminum feedneck insert which makes the feedneck more durable.
Ball capacity:
The ball capacity of the Prophecy varies as there are three different shell sizes that can attach to the loader. The small shell (200 round front piece) holds a total of around 190 paintballs, the standard sized shell (240 round front piece) holds 220 paintballs, and the large shell (280 round front piece) holds about 260 paintballs. The ability to switch these shells instantaneously adds to the versatility of this superloader. Nose pieces can be switched out in just a few seconds.
The standard Prophecy weighs in at 1 pound 4 ounces empty and with 220 paintballs inside it will weigh around 2 pounds 15 ounces. With the small shell attached the Prophecy will weigh about 1 pound 3 ounces empty and 2 pounds 6 ounces full (190 paintballs). The Prophecy with the large nose attached will weigh about 1 pound 5 ounces empty and 2 pounds 15 ounces full (260 paintballs).
The height of the Prophecy is 5 ½ inches high from the bottom the feedneck to its highest point. Since the different shells of the prophecy attach below the highest point then this height remains the same for all three size shells. This loader is 4 ½ inches wide and this also remains the same for all three shells. The length of a stock Prophecy (240 ball capacity) is 9 inches and is roughly 10 inches long with the smaller shell attached (200 ball capacity). With the longer shell (280 ball capacity) the Prophecy is about 12 inches long
The prophecy uses 4 AA batteries and gets about 6-10 cases with them making it the least battery efficient of the three superloaders. When comparing battery cost the Prophecy also comes in third place at costing 0.000220 cents to feed each shot (assuming an average price of $3.50 for 4 AA's). There is also an upgrade harness available that allows the prophecy to run on two 9 volt batteries rather than the 4 AA's.
Available settings:
The Prophecy has the most available settings of the three superloaders which include 6 different sound sensitivity settings, 6 different speed settings, ball stack monitoring, as well as RF capability. The Prophecy is a sound activated loader in its standard set up. It also can be fed by the touch of a button to check if it is feeding paintballs correctly. The ball stack tension is adjusted by magnets in the drive wheel, having more magnets means having more ball stack tension and having fewer magnets will likewise decrease ball stack tension. The combination of all these settings make the Prophecy a loader that can be made to specifically work very well with any marker set up.
Ease of taking it apart/cleaning it/changing batteries:
The Prophecy has the distinct ability to be broken down all the way with absolutely no tools needed. This makes cleaning the inside of the loader out a breeze and changing batteries is hardly a complicated task. The trick with the Prophecy is making sure everything goes back the same way it was taken apart. The Prophecy can be a little difficult to reassemble but it is nothing that a little practice and manual reading can't fix. Bear in mind that after learning the entire process it still takes a few minutes to attach most of the loader's body. Simon's helpful videos should give you an idea of how the Prophecy comes apart and is put back together, this is part 1 of his disassembly vid:
Feed rate:
The Prophecy can feed paintballs at an impressive rate of 35+ bps. Part of how this speed is achieved is by a double tiered feeding wheel which constantly lines up several paintballs to be fed into the marker.
The Prophecy retails from around 110 to 130 dollars brand new making it the least expensive of the three superloaders. Used Prophecies usually go for around 80 to 100 dollars.
The Prophecy comes in a decent amount of colors but matching your Prophecy to your gun can be difficult. The main colors of the Prophecy are black and smoke (transparent) which can have either red, blue, or green accents. All colored accent kits as well as the smoke color option gives you the ability to see how many balls are left in your loader. Only the black shells and matching black accents are not transparent.
Aftermarket accessories:
There are many accessories for the Empire Prophecy which include different back plates, changeable accent color kits, different capacity noses as stated above, as well as a choice of either the Empire speedfeed made for the loader or a Virtue Crown. You can also upgrade your Prophecy to a "Prophecy LTD" (the more expenisve version of the loader) by purchasing an upgrade kit which gives you even more options to customize your loader's settings as well as being able to adjust the settings on a computer via USB.
Reball compatibility:
Overall Prophecies tend to accept Reballs very well. Mike's video of shooting 5 pods of Reballs had no jams whatsoever just like the Pinokio Reball test video:
Prophecies have very flexible shells especially when compared to the other two superloaders which allows them to withstand a great amount of abuse. See Simon's video below:
Despite the flexibility of the shells they have been known to crack on some occasions but this is usually due to extreme use.
Tendency to jam:
Like the Pinokio, the Prophecy overall does not jam very often and even if it does the rip drive is just waiting there underneath the hopper begging to be taken for a spin.
Ball detection system:
The Prophecy is the only sound activated superloader but does have the ability to used through radio frequency activation.
Rip drive:
The Prophecy is the only loader of the three that has rip drive capability and it comes standard on the loader. This obviously allows you to stay in the game and keep firing if your batteries should die right in the heat of battle and aids in clearing jams.
Position of feedneck in regards to the marker:
The Prophecy sweeps back a grand total of 5 inches from the feedneck making it well centered over the marker.
Like all three superloaders the Prophecy is quiet and does not spin at all when not feeding a marker. Bear in mind that since it is a sound activated loader other sounds might cause it to start feeding such as a nearby marker firing or being hit against a hard surface.
The Prophecy is an excellent choice for players who love options and are concerned about tuning their loader perfectly to their marker. Since both of the other two superloaders have no settings at all, the Prophecy dominates that category. With the option of getting a used Prophecy for a very low price this loader makes a great choice for players who want a superloader but may not have much to spend on one.

I've never seen Band of Brothers before and I'm currently enjoying it for the 1st time. Just finished episode 2 (D-Day). We are watching on HBO Demand having just got HBO again for the 1st time in 10 years.
The series is giving me chills since I have family history in WWII.
My father and his 4 brothers all served.
My father and 1 of my uncles served in the South Pacific. 1 uncle due to the "Saving Private Ryan" rule mostly stayed stateside or in safer conditions overseas. My 2 other uncles served in Europe.
One of my uncles was in the 505 PIR (82 Airbourne) and part of D Day. He died that night/day. Not alot of details about his death.
Watching this series with my sons, we have an eerie but proud feeling watching it.
I saw that in March, Hanks and Spielberg will be showing "The Pacific" on our struggles against the Japanese. Obviously, I will see it. I wished it could've been with my father. He passed in 2001.
What a great generation.

Vitamin B6, which is also called as pyridoxamine, pyridoxine, or pyridoxal, is one of the most prominent essential vitamins required for functioning of numerous enzymes in our bodies. This vitamin is vital for protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism. As a co-enzyme, vitamin B6 works along with other enzymes to regulate all sorts of processes in our body. But ironically, many people fall short of meeting the daily requirements of this essential vitamin. As a result, they suffer from many vitamin B6 deficiency problems. Fatigue, moodiness, irritability, loss of appetite, hair loss, dry skin especially on the lips and tongue are some of the symptoms of vitamin B6 deficiency.
As per a latest research, vitamin B6 helps in relieving edema and water retention problem, rheumatism, peripheral neuropathy, autism, learning and developmental disorders, magnesium deficiency, tendonitis, cardiovascular occlusions and myocardial infarcts. Studies have also shown that people diagnosed with arthritis, epilepsy, acne, and sebhorheic dermatitis problems often have significant shortage of vitamin B6 in their bodies. Especially among women, this vitamin required to balance the hormonal changes, shortage of which often leads to irregular menstrual periods, headaches, irritability and mood swing problems.
This health-affirming vitamin is available abundant in seeds, beans, bran and beef, egg, fish, and bananas. However, the intake of vitamin B6 supplements offer maximum benefits. Doctors recommend a daily intake of 1.6 milligrams of B6 for women and 2 milligrams for men. Remember, although there are potential benefits of taking vitamin B6 supplements, but a strong overdose of over 250 milligrams might cause nerve damage. Nutrition experts suggest a combine intake of other vitamin B and magnesium supplements along with vitamin B6 to avoid vitamin B6 overdose.

Through a series of exercises, this analysis allows to recognize tolerance and adaptation of the heart after intense physical demands. There are treatments that have been changing over time, such as myocardial infarction. At first, it is imposed on the total and complete rest patient while currently there are specialists who prescribe an exercise with increasing intensity. However, this effort must be monitored and supervised always. ...
Atrial Fibrillation
The atrial fibrillation surgery aims to restore sinus rhythm (normal heart rhythm) in patients presenting some cardiac pathology. The technique used to carry out this operation is highly complex and is based on the performance of various lines of scars at the level of the atria, to create a unique path for transmission of the electrical impulse from the sinus node to the atrioventricular node. The ultimate goal is to prevent those improper electrical stimuli that cause atrial fibrillation are transmitted. Currently, among the techniques used in this type of surgery the use of ultrasound, radiofrequency and cryotherapy is contemplated; action creates pathways for the transmission of electrical impulses, just as scars induced in traditional surgery. ...
Cardiovascular Risk
The factors that provide an cardiovascular risk are those who are associated with a greater likelihood of cardiovascular disease such as cholesterol, diabetes, hypertension, smoking, genetic inheritance, stress, obesity and heart rate. These agents affect both the arteries of the heart as the other parts of the body such as the brain, kidney and lower limbs. The most common consequences are myocardial infarction or cardiovascular events such as thrombosis, embolism and cerebral hemorrhage. There are aspects that predispose people to suffer them as age, sex, race and, above all, family history. Also, maintain a balanced diet also prevents the control of blood pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose. ...
Cholesterol is a sterol (lipid or fat) that the human body needs to function properly, but too much cholesterol in the blood is bad because it can cause heart disease and stroke, among other problems. The cholesterol tends to increase with age but usually causes no symptoms, only detected with a blood test. People with family history of overweight or consuming lots of high-fat meal are very likely to have high cholesterol levels. You can lower cholesterol by performing exercise and consumption of fruits and vegetables. ...
dilated cardiomyopathy
Dilated cardiomyopathy is a disease that affects the heart and is characterized by being weakened and enlarged. This leads to the result that the heart can not pump to the body enough blood. The main causes of this disease are coronary artery disease and hypertension. Dilated cardiomyopathy symptoms such as pain or pressure in the chest, coughing, fatigue, loss of appetite and swelling of the feet, among others. ...
The echocardiogram is a diagnostic test based on the use of ultrasonic techniques using ultrasound emission on the chest area, heart reach several structures reflecting on them again to be collected, analyzed and represented through graphics. The echocardiographic analysis or ultrasound of the heart represents a histogram of the mobility of the heart muscle and is especially useful for the study of the functioning of heart valves and their pathology. Also, this diagnostic test is useful for post-surgical follow-metal stents them. Furthermore, the development of B-scan is a plane scanning ultrasonic viewing images in real time that allows calculation of volumes and areas of valvular orifices, which serves to complete medical diagnostics. ...
The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic test that is a record, with special tools (electrocardiogram) of the electrical activity of normal heart and presenting pathology. It also constitutes one of the most important knowledge and appreciation of most of the heart techniques. Also, electrocardiography provides an invaluable diagnostic aid growth of different heart chambers (atria and ventricles). In many cases, the diagnosis of congenital heart disease is known from the characteristic plot of this. In fact, the ECG provides important data for the evaluation of more than 80% of heart disease. ...
Fatty liver
Fatty liver disease, also known as hepatic steatosis, is a disease characterized by the accumulation of fatty acids and triglycerides in liver cells. ...
Heart Failure
Heart failure occurs when the body in a permanent obstacle is located in the blood circulation. This may be located within the heart muscle or outside, which causes an increase in blood pressure. There are two types of heart failure: systolic, when the heart muscle can not pump blood and ridding the heart; and diastolic pressure when the heart muscles are stiff and not fill with blood. Both are treatable. First, avoid any effort that work overload of the heart, and then, deliver drugs that provide vitality to exhausted heart muscle. Additionally, when the obstacle is within the coronary arteries of coronary insufficiency talk. ...
Heart murmur
A heart murmur is a noise comparable to that makes the air in a torch, which is usually pathological, although young children may be normal. You can listen using a device called phonendoscope, which is placed at chest level. The heart murmurs are always indicative that there is increased blood flow to heart level, either by an alteration to the level of a heart valve or a noncardiac cause. Besides, the situation blow, the sonic character, location, irradiation, and the variation by reference to the effort and the change of position, are always data to take into account because they offer a lot of information regarding the pathology that He has caused. ...
Hypercholesterolemia is the presence of blood cholesterol above normal levels. This increase is often associated with heart problems, diet, sex, lifestyle and endogenous synthesis. Thus the concentration of blood cholesterol hereditary and dietary factors involved, along with other related physical activity. We can distinguish two types of hypercholesterolemia. Primary, derived from problems with cholesterol transporters systems and genetic factors, and the secondary, where the increase in cholesterol is associated with certain liver, endocrine and kidney disease. ...
Hypertension is the increase in blood pressure either on a temporary, intermittent or permanent, always above considered a normal values ranging between 160/95mmH, according to the World Health Organization. Clinically, it can not give symptomatology or, conversely, take the form of severe headaches, congestion of the face… Aparate, arterial hypertension (HT ) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality index is one of the most important public health problematic in developed countries. Hypertension is treated with general measures such as a balanced, low-fat diet, and medication treatment. This often avoid complications that can result from poorly controlled hypertension, a heart, eyes and kidneys. ...

Stroke means the sudden cessation of cerebral circulation after injury of cerebral vessels, which starts unexpectedly and can develop within minutes in major neurological syndromes. Three basic ways of mechanisms of action are known: haemorrhagic (atherosclerosis and hypertension are usually most frequent causes them); cerebral thrombosis, arteriosclerosis again being the most common cause; and, thirdly, strokes. Clinically, depending on the location of the lesion some specific neurological signs, which may be in the form of motor, sensory impairment, and, in severe cases, coma and death will manifest. In the overall treatment of stroke it is essential to control risk factors such as hypertension, heart disease, snuff, diabetes mellitus ... ...
Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle. It is a rare disease and can be caused by several factors: infections, allergic reactions, diseases with an immunological basis, etc. In some patients, there are no symptoms, but in most the disease is manifested by chest pain, fatigue, fever, joint pain, or shortness of breath, among other symptoms. For diagnosis, it is necessary to perform a series of tests (general analytic, an ultrasound of the heart and an electrocardiogram), and treatment aims to eradicate what caused the inflammation of the heart muscle by prescribing antibiotics or anti-inflammatory and recommendation salt diet or decreased physical activity. In many cases, recovery with proper treatment may involve the complete cure of the patient, preventing further complications such as heart failure. ...
Palpitations are heartbeat of sudden onset and violent, sensitive and annoying. Normally the heart action is perceived only in a situation of stress, strong emotion or after the completion of an important exercise. But heart palpitations can occur in certain pathological states in which the heartbeat increase in intensity and frequency, as in the case of tachycardia, which can be a symptom of cardiac or noncardiac disease, such as: a significant anemia , an increase of thyroid function, liver disease, or other conditions; but they can also occur after drinking alcohol, tea, coffee and other stimulants. ...
Pericarditis is inflammation of the serous membrane, ie, the outer coat that surrounds the heart sac. It may be due to an infectious origin, or appear without apparent cause or after a general infection like pneumonia, tuberculosis ... All symptoms are cardiocirculatory from dyspnea heart failure, through oppression or symptoms of decompensation; and clinically manifested with choking and intense stabbing chest pain level. In many cases, it is generally a benign condition that refers to own treatment of the symptoms presented by the patient, but in exceptional cases, surgical treatment may be necessary. Pericarditis can give a very similar clinical cardiomyopathy but it is important to differentiate since the treatment is completely different. ...
Preventive Cardiology
Preventive cardiology is the set of measures intended to protect the person of the possibility of developing a specific medical condition. The high incidence and high mortality from ischemic heart disease have been raising awareness in the society for prevention campaigns, awareness and mentation, with the aim of trying to prevent and combat the so-called risk factors: obesity, snuff, hypertension, sedentary lifestyle, hypercholesterolemia ... This type of action prior to the onset of the disease is called primary prevention, while in high even certain medical or surgical guidelines, such as bypass surgery would be used to improve the quality and survival. ...
Stress Test
It is known as stress test or treadmill test electrocardiographic medical examination which is generally used for diagnosis and assessment of heart failure or angina. Over the years, its use has expanded the use of this test but can not be performed on all patients suffering from heart diseases because it can pose some risks for the efforts involved in their implementation. To realize this, a static or ergonometric bicycle is used, following a methodology of progression overload thereof as a strong official protocol. The patient is monitored to control the test pulse rate, blood pressure, oxygen consumption and electrocardiographic changes and clinical response to stress (pain, fatigue ...). ...
Syncope, fainting or fainting are practically synonymous and are defined as loss of consciousness. In the fainting, patients are aware that their forces are dwindling and that at any moment your body may collapse and lose consciousness. In syncope, the patient loses consciousness abruptly without prior sítomas. The causes of syncope can be very diverse, from cardiovascular like arrhythmias or heart disease, neurovascular up as migraines and pharmacological or metabolic causes. Treatment involves keeping the patient with elevated legs and head bowed in a well ventilated and no crowds. Second, if that were not enough, there must be the primary cause of the fainting patient. As for treatment, there is no drug to prevent the occurrence of these fainting. ...
Thoracic pain
The chest pain is a pain in the front of the chest that may be a symptom of many diseases: heart disease, such as acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, or pericarditis; respiratory infectious type, such as influenza, pneumonia; nerve, such as anxiety attacks; osteoarticular and muscle u. However, keep in mind that despite the feeling severe pain in the chest, often the causes are not dangerous to the health of the individual. Since the cause of chest pain can be multiple, to avoid any mishap, it is essential quick reference to specialist for immediate treatment, in case it is needed. ...
tilt table
The test tilt or tilt-table test is used to find the cause of syncope suffered by the patient. To perform the test, the subject must be tied by the arms and feet reclining on a special table, and will insert an intravenous catheter in one arm while the other will be placed a bracelet to control blood pressure. In addition, to analyze heart rate, you put a set of electrodes connected to an electrocardiograph for electrocardiograms constant during the time of performing the test. The individual will upset your heart rate to the point where eventually lose consciousness, emulating syncope. Thus, the detailed results of the test will start drug treatment to prevent the patient to return to fainting. ...
The valve disease is a typical disease of the heart valves. The valves can be damaged for various reasons, for example infections or aging.
Varicone veins
Varicone veins
Venous insufficiency
It means venous insufficiency difficulties in the venous return of blood flow through the veins, either by the presence of a stenosis in the vessel, by an insufficiency of valves therein, or because they have lost the elasticity of its walls, expanding and leading to varicose veins. Risk factors that predispose to this disease are obesity, age, genetic factors, multiple pregnancies, remain standing long hours ... Venous insufficiency is manifested by symptoms such as itching, redness of the skin at the ankles and distal part of the foot, swelling, discoloration in the area, superficial varicose veins and leg ulcers, among others. Treatment consists of the use of elastic stockings and avoid spending long hours in one position, and other factors that predispose to its formation. If these measures prove insufficient, the drug treatment will be necessary and / or surgery. ...

The Link Between Running and Arthritis - Page 2
The Jury Is Out
A small number of studies have suggested a correlation between exercise, including running, and osteoarthritis. One of the studies had serious methodological flaws while another, a 2000 study in the Journal of Clinical Epidemiology, only found a positive association between osteoarthritis and increased levels of exercise in a limited subset of subjects.
Although the majority of research disputes the link between arthritis and running, the jury is still out on a link for those who run both long and/or fast. One such study examined the occurrence of hip arthritis in elite runners and found a greater incidence in those who ran over 65 miles a week. Although the researchers also found that faster running pace was even more a predictor of hip-joint cartilage degeneration, they did not indicate a specific pace for which risk increased.
Arthritis Happens
The act of running may not be the actual cause, arthritis can happen to runners. Says Dr. Luke, "Runners can develop osteoarthritis for a variety of reasons, including a history of previous injury or from a number of biomechanical and anatomic risk factors."
The onset of arthritis is usually gradual, developing over a period of years. Typical symptoms include an increase in joint stiffness and popping and cracking that may or may not be associated with pain. In addition to pain during or after running, Dr. Luke's red flag for runners is pain with daily activity.
Dr. Marc Safran of Stanford Sports Medicine advises runners with signs of osteoarthritis, "Osteoarthritis is progressive and irreversible and runners should make intelligent choices when it comes to modifying a running program to preserve the joints."
Not content relying only on the traditional physical exam, Dr. Luke at the Run Safe clinic prefers using a treadmill to assess runners' biomechanical form, watching for people who "run heavy" and can't absorb the impact of running. Anatomic risk factors also include a knock-kneed or bow-legged gait.
Obtaining an accurate diagnosis from a sports-medicine physician is the first step when faced with the symptoms of knee, hip or ankle osteoarthritis. Conservative treatment is often the next step, and entails physical therapy focused on strengthening the leg muscles, particularly the quadriceps, glutes and hamstrings, which has proven helpful in both treating and preventing arthritis.
In a study published in the journal Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, researchers determined that those with higher levels of quad strength were less likely to suffer symptoms of knee arthritis, even when joint degeneration was present. Similarly, strengthening the gluteus medius and maximus muscles plays an important role in rehabilitating those with hip osteoarthritis.
Due to the many positive effects of exercise and running on blood pressure, bone density and body mass, many sports-medicine experts recommend modification of a running program rather than an outright stop. "Unless symptomatic, a diagnosis of osteoarthritis shouldn't put a stop to a running program," says Dr. Luke. "Instead, consider incorporating cross training, changing running surface and addressing possible biomechanical flaws."
Modifying a running program can often allow those with mild to moderate osteoarthritis to continue running. The good news is that sports-medicine physicians like Dr. Luke feel that running on softer surfaces, like trails, lessens the impact of running and is easier on arthritic joints.

One thing anyone would want from a database is to use Transactions. In order to do so, one must know that CUBRID has autocommit enabled by default. In order to be able to use Transactions, this will need to be disabled and there are several ways to do this:
In CSQL, the command ;autocommit or ;au for short:
;au off
Here is an example: http://www.cubrid.org/manual/90/en/Transaction Commit
In CUBRID Manager, autocommit can be disabled by clicking the autocommit icon in the upper part of the query editor tab.
In various drivers, there are functions for each driver that allow enabling/disabling the autocommit mode:
PHP - http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.cubrid-set-autocommit.php
Python - http://www.cubrid.org/wiki_apis/entry/cubrid-python-api-documentation (autocommit in url)
Ruby - http://www.cubrid.org/wiki_apis/entry/cubrid-ruby-api-documentation
JDBC - http://www.cubrid.org/accessing_cubrid_with_jdbc_part2 (setAutoCommit function)
CCI - http://www.cubrid.org/manual/90/en/cci_set_autocommit
ADO.NET - http://www.cubrid.org/wiki_apis/entry/connection-options
Regardless of the approach chosen, 2 SQL commands can be used to commit or rollback a transaction:
in order to commit a transaction and
in order to perform a rollback. You can also perform rollbacks to a savepoint. A tutorial with an example can be found here: http://www.cubrid.org/manual/90/en/Savepoint and Partial Rollback
