I've embedded the YouTube video with no difficulties following method #2 of the YouTube API Blog:
Is there any way to know when the video has finished playing (or when the user presses the Done button on the movie controller)?
For instance, say you wanted to play each video in a playlist without requiring the user to interact with the app. Is there any hook for when to start the next video?

Law and science
A recent article in Neurology journal, written by two physicians and two lawyers, bemoans "The impact of litigation on neurologic research." Here's a link. The article discusses a couple of cases in which litigants have sought to require the disclosure of scientists' research data, and the article recommends several possible solutions to this perceived problem. Among other things, the authors advocate "comprehensive federal legislation recognizing a research scholar privilege and ensuring that research data are uniformly protected against disclosure in all states."
This is another one of those issues about which we really can't speak publicly. We've been involved in cases where litigants (plaintiffs, of course, given what we do for a living) improperly relied on harebrained scholarship, and the only way to protect our clients' interest was to obtain the underlying data and discredit the research. And we've been involved in cases in which litigants (our defendant-clients, of course, given what we do for a living) were legitimately relying on impeccable scholarship, and plaintiffs improperly sought disclosure of the underlying research data to discredit the results. Well, you get our drift, anyway, and you see why we're not able to speak publicly on this topic.
But we can safely say these two things: First, the law of unintended consequences applies fully to judicial precedents. Now that Daubert is the law of the land, we have seen recidivist expert witnesses planning how to get their cockamamie theories in print, solely to increase the chance that silly opinions would become admissible in court. And we can certainly imagine Daubert distorting the natural progress of science on both sides of the "v."
Second, the law must balance, on the one hand, the need for scientific research that is unfettered by the burden of possible discovery in litigation with, on the other hand, the due process rights of litigants who may be adversely affected by inaccurate research results. That may not be an easy balance to reach, but it is surely a subject that demands intelligent thought and a good-faith effort to reach a fair solution.

Bah. Sorry for the double posts, neither of which identified me as who I am. Now logged in propertly.

While researchers have a legitamate concern in protecting their data prior to publication, once the article is published, I see no reason for them to hold back their research file. Patient names can be redacted, and assuming that the discovering party is willing to pay the costs of duplication, there is no real burden on the researchers. Science and law ought to be aimed at the same goal -- discovering truth. And you can't get to the truth without having the information underlying someone's conclusions.

TOKYO, Jan. 22. MARTHA Stanton of the Okinawa Dolphins set a Japanese Masters national record last Sunday at the 2002 New Year's Masters Swim Meet in Tokyo.
The meet, held at the 25-meter Urayasu City Athletic Park, attracted over 1,700 Masters swimmers, aged 18 and above, including four members of the MCCS Okinawa Dolphins Masters Swim Team.
Led by double gold medalist Martha Stanton, 45, the team returned to Okinawa with six medals. Stanton cruised to first place finishes in the 200 meter freestyle (2:29.92) and set a new Japan Masters national record for women 45-49 in the 200 meter backstroke (2:53.30).
Stanton's performance was one of 30 Japanese national records set at the meet. There was also one world record established at the competition.
Silver medal winning performances were turned in by ODST's George Novinger (US State Dept.), 45, in the 100 meter breaststroke (1:23.12) for men 45-49 and by Eiko Chinn, 30, in the 100 meter freestyle (1:34.07) for women 30-34.
Bronze medals were won by Colin Chinn (USN), 43, in the men's 40-44 100 meter freestyle (1:01.72) and Novinger in the 200 meter individual medley (2:47.51).
Chinn was also fourth in the 200 free (2:17.51).
The Dolphins plan to compete again at the Okinawa Spring Championships in Urasoe City and hope to compete in Hong Kong and Taiwan later this year.
The team is coached by Mathew Luebbers.

At the end of the 12th century The Priory of Holy Trinity was founded by William Brewer for an Order of Austin Canons. He was an influential Hampshire gentleman responsible for other monastic foundations across the county, but at Mottisfont there was a special treasure to ensure its prosperity. With the finger of St John the Baptist, it became renowned as a place of pilgrimage, miracles, and royal endowments. Although never a large priory, it's full complement of 11 canons was severely reduced to three by the time of Suppression in 1536, the Black Death and decreasing revenue responsible for its eventual decline.
Henry VIII granted the estate to William Lord Sandys, the Lord Chamberlain, and his ancestors continued to live at the property for the next four centuries. Unfortunately, he didn't survive long enough to enjoy Mottisfont himself, and his grand plans to convert the priory into a vast Tudor mansion were left to the 3rd Lord Sandys to complete. Using the old priory church, as well as the domestic ranges, a substantial manor house arranged around two courtyards was an impressive transformation at that time. Most of the Tudor work has since been replaced by the mid-18th century alterations carried out by Sir Richard Mill who, whilst wishing to change the appearance of the house, surprisingly left much of the monastic remains intact. It was from this point in time that the Georgian mansion became known as Mottisfont Abbey.
In 1836 a stable block was built, but the next major restoration of the house did not take place until the first years of the 20th century. The house had been let to a tenant for the previous 15 years but when Mrs Vaudrey Barker-Mill returned to Mottisfont Abbey in 1900 she instigated a costly programme of work to the property and the estate. The final chapter for this beautiful house came in 1934 when it was eventually sold to the Russells. It is mainly their extensive remodelling to both the house and the gardens that the visitor can enjoy today.
Knowing its monastic origins, it is very easy to picture the church and the claustral ranges incorporated into the present stone and flint structure, and the medieval vaulted cellarium to be found beneath the terrace is a remarkable survival in a building that has been altered so many times. Providing a complete contrast, present day visitors can also enjoy the stunning room created by Rex Whistler, and a collection of 20th century paintings by Derek Hill. With the River Test running through the picturesque grounds, and the 'font' or original natural spring that made the site so appealing to the monks, Mottisfont Abbey is a peaceful, pretty location with architecture, art, history, and the fabulous National Collection of Old-fashioned Roses, to provide a constant source of interest.

C-USA Celebrates National Girls and Women in Sports Day
Conference USA and its member institutions are proud to join in the nationwide celebration of the 28th Annual National Girls and Women in Sports Day on February 5. On this day, thousands of sport educators, coaches, athletes, athletics administrators and corporate partners sponsor events and participate in activities to show support for the day.
Conference USA recognizes the value of sports participation for women and the important role it plays in preparing student-athletes for the future. C-USA established a league-wide program in 1995 to commemorate this day each year. All conference members have planned special events and activities in observance of this day.
The theme for the 28th annual National Girls and Women in Sports Day is "Passing the Torch, Blazing the Trail!" Athletes like Martina Navratilova, Candace Parker or Jessica Mendoza who played or are still playing are making a difference, overcoming difficult circumstances, breaking records and making things possible. NGWSD Central states despite the stunning advances made in the 40 years since Title IX was enacted, high school girls still receive 1.3 million fewer participation opportunities than do boys, and evidence suggests that the money spent on girls' sports programs lags significantly behind the money spent on boys' programs. NGWSD is observed in all 50 states with community-based events, award ceremonies and activities honoring the achievements and encouraging participation of girls and women in sports.
The Women's Sports Foundation organized the first event in 1987 to honor Olympic volleyball player Flo Hyman for her athletic achievements and her efforts to ensure equality for women's sports. Hyman died suddenly while competing in Japan in 1986. NGWSD has since evolved into a day to acknowledge the past and recognize current sports achievements, the positive influence of sports participation and the continuing struggle for equality and access for women in sports.
NGWSD is jointly organized by the National Girls and Women in Sport Coalition. The Coalition combines the experience and resources of four premiere girls- and women-serving organizations in the United States: AAHPERD, Girls Incorporated, National Women's Law Center, and the Women's Sports Foundation.

Gear of the Year: iPad Apps Rule
While it hasnt revolutionized the cockpit, the iPad has inspired dozens of useful utilities, so its our top product of 2011.
That not-so-faint hissing sound you hear is us reacting at the slightest suggestion that we are Mac fanboys. We are, if anything, washed-in-the-blood cynics when it comes to the great bloated gust of hype that surrounds everything to do with Apple computers and products.
But were also realists and fair to a fault, so when we see practical, meaningful products of any kind, we think the nod is due. So this year, we are naming aviation applications for the iPad as our products of the year.
Please just shoot us if we use the phrase "game changer" applied to anything, most of all a computer. We prefer to think of the iPad and the dozens of useful aviations apps it has spawned as a substantial and useful contribution to cockpit information management. But it extends beyond that, since iPad apps also inform things like test taking, flight planning, weight and balance and so on. If its an aviation task, theres probably an app for it. We think these gadgets are worth considering. (Just dont call us fanboys.)
BEST App: Foreflight
While were drowning the iPad itself in faint praise, worth mentioning is what we think is the best overall, most useful application: Foreflight.
This app is as strong for what it does as for what it doesnt, which is to overreach with a bunch of useless features most owners would never use. Its a good, easy-to-use general flight planner, chart manager and weather getter. It does these functions superbly, without stumbling all over itself trying to do everything else. In app writing, restraint is to be admired. See www.foreflight.com.
LSA of the Year Tecnam P2008
Reviewing LSAs is sometimes like being the ice cream critic at a BaskinRobbins. There sure are a lot of these things. We flew several this year, but the one that stands out is the Tecnam P2008.
Its one of the most refined LSAs weve seen, albeit expensive. Tecnam offers no apologies, since they are plying the high-price stratum where owners wantand can affordamenities like premium interiors, autopilots and glass panels, all of which the P2008 has.
Coming from a company that has built certified aircraft in Europe for years, the P2008 shows excellent attention to detail and handles and flies beautifully. Tecnam has spared no effort on the interior and the avionics packages are top drawer. For more, see www.tecnam.net.
Most Promising Innovation: Lycoming IE2
If airframers and engine manufacturers can count on one thing, its that customers will say they want one thing, then refuse to buy that very thing when its introduced. And so it has been with electronic engine control systems, which have failed to take off.
Lycomings ambitious IE2 system may change that. It has more sophisticated hardware and software than previous attempts, appears more mature and, we suspect, it will soon have an OEM launch customer or two. If the company can just get its foot in the door with a few Cessna models, we predict this project will have legs, to which we say: Its about time. See www.lycoming.textron.com.
Best Engine Monitor: EI MVP
Not that long ago, dancing orange bars were the high-tech latest in engine monitoring technology, but now, these devices are so 1999. Theyve been replaced by large-format monitors that provide lots more information and are less obtuse to interpret.
The three major competitors, JPI, Flight Systems and Electronics International all make excellent large-format monitors, but were picking EIs MVP-50 as the top choice because shops tell us its easy to install, exceptionally well supported by the company and, most important, its highly customizable and configurable. To find out just what you can do with the MVP-50, see www.buy-ei.com.
Best In-Ear Headset: Halo
We think many owners dont like so-called in-ear headsets because they simply havent tried in-ear headsets. But its our job to try such things and when we compared the major players in this market, we were impressed.
The top dog as far as value and performance is the Quiet Tech Halo, with prices starting in the $350 range. Rather than a skull-crushing spring headband to shut out the cockpit din, these devices rely on a rather more gentle foam earplug through which the audio signal is passed via a hollow plastic tube. Although an acquired taste, users insist these headsets are far less fatiguing without giving up noise attenuation. Check out www.quiettechnologies.com.
Best Co Detector: BW Gasalert
Do you really need a carbon monoxide detector? Depends on where your personal demons live. If any of them are hanging out there down by the muffler and heater shroud, might we suggest you do need one?
Cutting right to the chase, this review was easy, since the BW GasAlert Extreme was the walkaway winner of our CO gas chamber competition. The product is small, light and has excellent low-level sensing. For about $240, it will keep the cabin safe from an admittedly rare but still deadly hazard. Find out more at www.gasmonitors.com.
Led Landing Light: Aeroled Sunspot
In case you havent noticed, virtually every new LSA equipped for night VFR has an LED landing light, and its not because theyre cheap. LED lamps are long lasting, bright and efficient, and the industry is making great gains in making them even brighter. Even some certified aircraft are turning to LEDs. Theyre simply the light of the future.
We tested all of the aftermarket LEDs we could find and AeroLEDs SunSpot emerged as the victor in overall value. It will fit into the same space as the ubiquitous GE4509 that most aircraft have as a standard landing light.
It also has a built-in flasher and wig-wag circuit, if youre inclined toward multiple installations. The only drawback is that approvals for some aircraft may be difficult, although AeroLEDs will help with this. Check out the companys full line at www.aeroleds.com.
Avionics Cooling Fan: Sandia Aerospace
If you have to ask whether you really need one of these things, youve probably already fried something. But cheer up, with a Sandia Safe fan, you can at least blow the smoke away.
The fact is, avionics stacks still need cooling, especially considering how warm even the best TFT displays can run. For as little as these fans cost, you might as well get the best and Sandia makes five models, so theres no problem finding one to fit your aircraft. Find out more details at www.sandia.aero.
Best Bargain Headset: Alura SSB ANR
Nice as it is to use a Bose or Lightspeed Zulu, many pilots simply dont need the top-of-the-line. Thats where the Alura comes in. At $299, its a third the price of the premium ANR headsets and although it doesnt perform as well nor is it as comfortable, for that price, we wouldnt expect it to be.
But its quiet and comfortable enough. Its built tough, so broken headbands or mic booms shouldnt surface during normal use. It automatically turns its ANR on and off to save the battery, and the company is small and has already improved the model in responsive to user comments.
Get the details at www.aluraheadsets.com.
BEST VHF Portable Radio: Sportys SP-400
The portable VHF radio market used to be much bigger than it is now, but there are still plenty of radios to pick from. And the top pick, according to our comparison trials, is Sportys SP-400, a follow-on to its popular and top-selling SP-200, a first- class radio in its own right.
The SP-400 has some impressive features you might never usesuch as localizer capability and VOR receptionbut it also has an excellent two-way radio with good RF and audio performance.
By our standards, these meet the primary requirements for a portable VHF, which is good performance as a backup radio and for use on the ground.
At $299, the SP-400 is competitive with other radios but delivers more for the buck. Check out the SP-400 at www.sportys.com.
Best Value in Autopilot: S-Tec System 30
Along with everyone else, we noticed a big sea change after the financial meltdown of 2008. Obviously, the OEM market tanked, but owners got a lot more picky about value when doing upgrades, including the avionics work that still represents the lions share of routine aircraft improvements.
Autopilots are one of these upgrades and expense wise, theyre near the top of the list, right behind engines. The reason is that they involve major surgery to the airframe and the more suited the autopilot is to minimize this, the better. So when the shop says, "Thatll be $40,000 for the autopilot install," many owners ask, "What other options do I have? We think the S-TEC System 30 is one of these and the best-value option in autopilots.
The installed price is reasonable, the system will fit into about anything and while the System 30 doesnt have every feature, it has enough to earn it our top value recommendation. For more, try www.s-tec.com.
BEST Multimedia Test Prep: Sportys
When it comes to prepping for a written, the market is choked with choices, so much so that its hard to know where to start. Triaging the choices, we compared the multi-media options for the private pilot exam and pegged Sportys as the top.
Not that those from King Schools, Gleim, Jeppesen and ASA arent worthy, but the Sportys course delivered the best combination of technology, pacing and price/value, in our view. See www.sportys.com for more.

Incorporating Flash into an .aspx page
- From: cgdev1@xxxxxxxxx
- Date: 16 Jan 2007 22:48:25 -0800
Hi Folks,
I'm somewhat a newbie to .Net (2.0) and even newer to Flash. I'm
trying to incorporate a flash (.swf) file into my application.
The code* below works in a .htm page (added to my project by using 'add
new item' and pasting the code in it). However, the same code does not
work in an .aspx page (the page does not throw any errors, but nothing
happens aside from a border and a tool tip that says to click to
activate). I also tried changing the path to "~/PhotoChange.swf".
(* I generated this code using Flash MX 2004 by 'publishing' as an html
file, then right clicking the resulting file and viewing the source)
Any ideas?

Your teen's weight is affecting his health -- physically or mentally -- so as a parent, you're concerned. Perhaps your teen has been diagnosed with a health problem common in overweight teens, such as high blood pressure or sleep apnea. Or maybe your teen has expressed anxiety about his weight.
Whatever the reason, you want to help -- but it's not easy for a parent to know how. While your teen might feel ashamed or even angry about his weight, he may also be resentful if you try to get involved. As much as your teen may want to tackle his problems without help, however, your involvement in managing his weight is important.
You can help your teen make changes to his diet and exercise habits that will put him on a healthier track.
Set the Stage for Success
Helping overweight teens make healthy choices is complex. To help with teen weight management or teen weight loss, here are a few things you can do to set the stage for success.
Talk with your pediatrician about your overweight teen's BMI.
The first step is to talk with an expert about your teen's weight. Ask your health care provider to calculate your teen's body mass index (BMI). BMI is one way to measure body fat percentage, based on weight and height. Your pediatrician can then compare your child's result with other teens his age. If his BMI falls within the overweight or obese range, talk with the pediatrician about what your teen's weight goals should be. Whether weight loss is recommended for your teen will depend on several things, including:
- How overweight he is
- If he has weight-related health problems ( high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol or leg pains)
- If he has been trying to lose weight and, if so, for how long
The initial goal for the majority of overweight teens is often to maintain their weight and "grow into it" as they get taller. Keep in mind that even maintaining a current weight is much healthier than continuing to gain excess weight. When teen weight loss is advised, experts usually don't recommend losing more than 2 pounds a week.

The Southern Poverty Law Center added the Family Research Council and four other religious organizations to its list of hate groups because of "falsehoods" in their anti-gay statements.
FRC was one of several groups cited for falsely accusing gays of being linked to pedophilia more than heterosexuals.
The list, which will be released in February, will also include the American Family Association, Tupelo, Miss.; Americans for Truth about Homosexuality, Naperville, Ill.; Dove World Outreach Center, Gainesville, Fla.; and the Illinois Family Institute, Carol Stream.

Hi all,
I am banging my head as to why the gmail accounts are not syncing properly. Meaning that when I send mail from the gmail account it does not update the sent folder in gmail.com or when I delete messages it does not delete the messages on gmail.com. Also I like to know if a mail is sent or deleted will it update immediately on gmail or will take a long time to update? If this is not possible please let me know as the company will need to find other alternatives since they have too much email in gmail atm but wish to move to a more secure solution.
Tks in advance,

|"...sales were unpredictable and I never knew when they would come in. Because, every marketing I was doing was not building on the previous one. And a large factor to that was that I had no marketing blueprint.
All I can tell you is that as soon as I got a hold of Ann DeVere's course, the Marketing Blueprint Developer everything changed. She laid out exactly how to build a marketing blueprint from scratch, when you have no clue where to start. And her templates and guide-lines are exceptional. It made the whole process so simple and easy. I can't recommend Ann's course highly enough, because now every single one of my marketing efforts is built on the previous one and the momentum I've gained in my business has been incredible. Ann thank you so much!

I want you to imagine your life if every customer you had not only paid you top dollar but also was the customer you most wanted to work with...
That's exactly what will happen if you follow the Marketing Blueprint Developer System!
These are the questions that the Marketing Blueprint Developer will answer for you.
What makes the Marketing Blueprint Developer Toolkit different than any other marketing program out there?
Here Is How It works!
I have taken time tested marketing principles and boiled them down to the essentials while making sure to maintain their power and effectiveness!
|Identify your MOST Profitable Target Market
|Develop marketing materials that address your customer's wants and needs
|Answer your customer's questions and overcome their objections BEFORE you meet with them for the first time
If you are selling, or planning to sell, any Products and Services, this letter could prove to be vitally important to your future. Here's why:
Dear Friend,
How many times have you asked yourself what am I doing wrong?
How many times have you picked up a newspaper and seen other people making tons of cash selling the same products and services as you?
These are people who are no smarter or more experienced than you are, but who seem to know exactly what to do. If your business isn't generating the significant income you hoped for, here's the reason why:
You probably don't understand
Understanding what they want to buy makes all the difference. Listen to what Rebecca Pagdan and Dave Morton have to say about this fundamental approach to marketing and selling:
Case Study #2
|"...The Marketing Blueprint Developer helped me find the real strengths and selling points of my business. It taught me how to:
I learned how to put all that information into very attractive packages that make my customers feel a need for my services.
Rebecca Pagdan
Case Study #3
|"Marketing Blueprint Developer makes you focus on your customers prospective, like what problems and frustrations people face when buying what you sell and how you can solve their problems.
It helps you to determine how your business is different from other businesses and their approach. Even when you have the same product or service it can be presented differently and make your customer feel better about what they are getting.
It gave me a fresh new perspective about which direction I needed to go and redefined my objectives. I hadn't thought about those things in a long time."
Dave Morton
I learned the hard way...
YOU don't have to!
I want you to know that I have traveled the same road most likely you have when learning to promote my businesses. It was through a great deal of pain and frustration not to mention the money I lost that got me to learn 2 BIG marketing lessons.
BIG Lesson #1
In the mid 1980s, I decided to try my hand at the New York real estate market. Right away I noticed that the successful agents in the office were doing quite a lot of marketing. Since I had no money at that time, I said, "Well, when I make some money, I will invest it in marketing."
These 2 BIG lessons I learned 20 Years ago opened my eyes and forced me to become a lifetime student of marketing and Changed my life forever!
Discover How Ann DeVere
Will Change YOUR Business Life Forever
Here is what some of the Experts
have to say about this Powerful Toolkit
"Ann DeVere's Marketing Blueprint Developer enables me to clarify what it is customers will be receiving in a fraction of the normal time and without spending $5,000 - $10,000 per month on marketing expense which I've done going on 18 years. If I'd received Ann DeVere's Marketing Blueprint Developer 25 years ago I would have become a multi-millionaire in marketing 20 years sooner..."

Joel Bauer is the Marketing Consultant of America's corporate giants! Here is what Joel had to say about the Marketing Blueprint Developer.
|"I was so impressed with what Ann put together in her home study course that I decided to hire Ann to help me with numerous marketing projects within my company.
In addition to that I've also had Ann on as a marketing expert in my weekly calls that I do with my top clients. I enthusiastically endorse Ann DeVere and her Marketing Blueprint Developer System."

-Mitch Carson
How would you like to have "insider" secrets that have been tested and
"It's like having your very own
marketing consultant..."
Think about it: You can actually compete with companies
|"The value that your materials are bringing for the price point is something as an independent consultant I would never be able to touch. The value you bring is equivalent to the value of the kind of marketing that we do. You're giving people a tool to do the marketing themselves, utilizing the same level of tools that we use as professional consultants. So, there is a huge value here as the Marketing Blueprint Developer kit. I just think it's fabulous!"
Tim Ristine
YOU can have marketing materials that get
great results, even if you can't afford (or want)
to spend $25,000+ to hire a marketing firm
The Secret is in Knowing What Information
Should Be Used and How it Should Be Presented!
Now, Let Me Tell You
|"...and I can't tell you enough about Ann's Marketing Blueprint Developer. It is a great tool for you to use in your business. Now, let me tell you why it has worked so well for me. It is really well laid out. Things flow logically from one to the next. It is very easy to read. Ann explains things beautifully. She takes a very complex topic like marketing and made it very understandable. Now, in addition to that, as I used the guide, she has these great practical ideas that I could implement right away in my business and it made a huge difference. I've already increased my customer base from using this tool. So, it's a very easy, simple to use, pragmatic tool, that if you just work through it - one end to the other, it will work for you very well."

1. Alternatively referred to as a video display terminal (VDT) and video display unit (VDU), a monitor encompasses a display screen for video images and casing that holds it. In its most common usage, monitor refers only to devices that contain no electronic equipment other than what is essentially needed to display and adjust the characteristics of an image.
Like most early TVs, the early computer monitor's were comprised of a CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) and a fluorescent screen. Today, all monitors are created using flat panel display technology, like that shown in the image.
2. Monitor is a term to describe the process of viewing or watching over someone or something.
- Protecting children from harmful material and people on the Internet.
- How can I monitor my website's status?
- Computer security questions and answers.
3. Used frequently with machines utilizing punch card input, a resident monitor was system software that came before, but was very similar to an operating system.

LINCOLNTON – Ronnie Cornwell is practically a new man. Or at least several of his joints are.
In the past year, the 65-year-old Lincolnton resident has had his hip and two knees replaced at the Carolinas HealthCare System's CMC Orthopedic Surgery-Lincoln.
Before the procedures, he was in so much pain, walking was a chore. He had to give up house painting, an activity he's done since he was 16. He also had to retire from his position as a deputy sheriff because he couldn't move well enough to pass his gun qualification test.
Cornwell had his hip replaced in November 2012, his left knee replaced in February and his right knee replaced in September.
"I struggled to walk," he said of what it was like before his surgeries. "I couldn't get up and down the stairs. Now, I have no pain in either knee … I do anything I want to."
It used to be that area residents in need of joint replacement, had to travel to get it done, Orthopedic Surgeon Ted Parcel said.
Parcel has practiced at CMC-Orthopedic Surgery's Lincolnton and Denver locations for three years. With his expertise and the establishment of a hip and knee program, joint replacement services are offered in Lincoln County. And the program received accreditation from The Joint Commission in January 2013.
"It continues to grow," Parcel said of the program. "The numbers keep going up."
Part of the program includes a preoperative joint class, which is about an hour long, where nurses walk patients through the process that happens before and after surgery.
"Since we've started this program, I've noticed we've had a decreased length of stay and satisfaction's gone up," Parcel said. "It just makes everybody's experience better."
Cornwell said there's no comparison to the quality service he received for his three surgeries. The medical staff was friendly and professional, he added.
"Besides the good Lord, I give this young man right here the next credit," Cornwell said pointing to Parcel. "He's not a heart surgeon, but I'd let him operate on my heart."
"You don't want me doing that," Parcel quickly chimed in as the two laughed.
Though it won't be on his heart, Parcel will operate again on Cornwell on Dec. 2. This time it'll be to replace the joint in his shoulder.
Though Cornwell is familiar with joint replacement procedures, CMC-Lincoln is hosting a free seminar on Nov. 19 to offer more information to the public and straighten out misconceptions about joint replacements.
"People think you're taking off a huge chunk of bone and putting in a hinge, which is not what you do," Parcel said. "You're taking off small slivers of bone that are all about a centimeter or less and basically recapping the end of the bone (with metal and plastic)."
WE HAVE A FREE SEMINAR coming on Nov. 19th - for More Information on our FREE Joint Pain Seminar - Click HERE

Hello, I'm running Zimbra network edition on a RHEL box. I would like the domain administrator to create new mailbox accounts with different COS, it seems that new accounts under the domain are create with the global default COS and only the global administrator can change the default COS to a different one. Is there some way to delegate COS change capability to the domain administrator or at least a way to set a default COS per domain?
Thank you.

Sometimes, all you can do is throw up your hands and dance. So that's just what the American Association of University Women (AAUW) did. We brought a crew of members and supporters, some music and choreography -- and even a bit of attitude -- to the National Mall for a flash mob on April 2. The event, a joint effort with the Center for American Progress Action Fund, marked a joyous and inspirational kickoff to our Equal Pay Day 2011 events and got us geared up for another year of fighting pay discrimination.
AAUW has been on the front lines of the fight for fair pay for decades. A woman still earns, on average, just 77 cents for every dollar earned by her male counterpart. And while women in the District of Columbia earn 88 percent of what men there make, in West Virginia, Utah, Louisiana, and Wyoming, women don't even earn 70 percent of what their male counterparts make. The pay gap affects women workers of all ages, races, and levels of education. This isn't just your issue, your mom's issue, or your daughter's issue. It's an issue for American workers across the country. It's an issue for people just trying to support their families and provide the best for them.
We need look no further than a recent Supreme Court case for evidence of how discrimination is common. The women employees in Wal-Mart v. Dukes have alleged gender discrimination in pay and promotion policies and practices in Wal-Mart stores and are fighting to move forward as a group in what would be the largest class-action civil rights suit in the nation's history, comprising approximately 1.6 million female Wal-Mart and Sam's Club employees. Unfair pay is a real-life situation that happens daily but too often goes unnoticed.
This year, Equal Pay Day is commemorated on Tuesday, April 12. AAUW hosted a Capitol Hill luncheon on April 11 to discuss gender pay differences in law, engineering, academia, and public relations. We also released our new guide to pay equity, The Simple Truth about the Gender Pay Gap, a commonsense handbook that provides answers to some of the most common questions about the pay gap.
Last November the Paycheck Fairness Act was narrowly defeated in the Senate after it passed the House of Representatives with a strong bipartisan majority. The Paycheck Fairness Act is a comprehensive piece of fair pay legislation that would update the landmark Equal Pay Act of 1963 by closing loopholes, strengthening incentives to prevent pay discrimination, and prohibiting retaliation against workers who inquire about employers' wage practices or disclose their own wages. So we're starting fresh as the bill is reintroduced by urging members of Congress to take a stand for fair pay. The first thing you can do is to find out how the pay gap affects families in your state and take action.
Although the government will ultimately have to decide to enforce pay equity, we can make sure our support and the impact of pay inequity are known. While you're working hard to make equal pay a reality, keep your dancing shoes handy. The real party has yet to happen, but it will.

I am thinking about getting the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall and want to know what people think about it. I have heard a few people say that it was pretty funny.
This movie is a riot. A great movie. I think it is easily the best comedy of the year. You'll be kicking yourself if you don't see it or buy it.
Absolutely hilarious!!
It is pretty funny, Jonah Hill is hilarious and actually Russel Brande (or whatever is name is) is actually really funny too. A good pickup but don't watch it with the parents or little kids..........(like i did )
The Pride of Iowa State...
I agree, thought it was good. If you get a chance go see My Best Friends Girl - Official Movie Website
That movie has been the best comedy I have seen all year, it was unexpected. My wife and I were laughing out loud most of the movie.

Helps Relieve Symptoms of Enlarged Prostate:
- Frequent Urination.
- Diminished Stream.
- Difficulty Voiding Completely.
Prostatitis and BPH
Prostatitis is an inflammation of the prostate gland' usually caused by a bacterial infection that can be acute or chronic. In acute cases' the symptoms are similar to those of a urinary infection' and include pain in the perineal area' elevated temperature' and shivering. Chronic prostate inflammation is called Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia' or BPH' and is not the result of a bacterial infection. BPH occurs' in varying degrees' in all men over the age of 50.
As men get older their prostate keeps growing. As it grows' it presses on the urethra. What appear to be bladder or urinary tract issues are actually symptoms related to the prostate. In addition to the frequent and urgent need to urinate at all hours' these symptoms also include trouble starting a urine stream; a weak stream of urine; a small amount of urine each time urination occurs; the feeling that there is more urine' even though the stream has stopped; and leaking or dribbling. If complete inability to urinate occurs' seek medical help immediately to determine how to proceed.
BPH by itself is not a serious condition' unless the symptoms are so bothersome that you can't enjoy life. BPH can lead to serious problems including urinary tract infections. Prosta-Health can help with the symptoms' and can be used safely on a maintenance basis.
Prosta-Health™ is a unique combination of homeopathic ingredients that help relieve the annoying symptoms of BPH.

I can't seem to find any mention of how Zimbra handles mass mailings. Specifically I have an HR department that wants to send out internal newsletters as well as my marketing department that wants to send out multiple external newsletters.
How would Zimbra handle this or would I need to run a 3rd party app like Majordomo or MailMan?

The Real Housewives Of New Jersey: Audition To Be On The Show
October 27, 2010 01:00 PM by Allyson Wells
Would you like to trade barbs with Danielle Staub, go toe-to-toe with Teresa Giudice, cook with Caroline Manzo or talk babies with Jacqueline Laurita? Life and Style magazine is reporting that casting is now underway to find a new housewife for The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
According to Life and Style Magazine, Vinnie Potestivo Entertainment is casting for season three of The Real Housewives of New Jersey. They are looking for new and outrageous women to fit in with the current cast. Fans of the show know that being outrageous is definitely a necessity to appear on this show!
The casting news comes after reports are surfacing that New Jersey housewife Teresa Giudice is either getting her own spinoff show or leaving the show altogether because she wants more money and contract negotiations are breaking down. Perhaps the show is looking to fill the void that Teresa could possibly be leaving on the show.
To apply for an audition, Life and Style Magazine asks that you e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com your name, contact information, location and pictures. You will need to explain why you belong on the show and be prepared to stand out. It would not hurt to also include a story about fist fights or family brawls, as filming of the latest season just captured a family throw down between Teresa Giudice's family and her brother, Joey Gorga's family.
There is no report yet on when casting would take place or when New Jersey housewife hopefuls might appear on the show.

Line break spouts water along the Kanawha River
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- A state Department of Highways employee operating an auger hit a water main line on MacCorkle Avenue Wednesday during a construction project, which caused water to shoot 40 feet into the air, according to a West Virginia American Water spokeswoman.
Laura Jordan said the water main break happened around mid-morning in front of the NiSource building as the Division of Highways replaced light poles in the area.
Jordan said West Virginia American Water responded to the water main break within 10 minutes of hearing about it.
Water company employees shut the water off 40 minutes later and isolated the water between two valves, she said. A new section of piping will be installed and should be finished this afternoon, she said.
No customers were affected by the break except the NiSource building, which experienced low water pressure, Jordan said.
Jordan said traffic along MacCorkle Avenue was not disturbed because the water sprayed in the direction of the Kanawha River.
"It was definitely something spectacular to watch but the actual main is off to the side in the grass and shooting into the direction of the river," Jordan said after she saw the break. Reach Megan Workman at email@example.com or 304-348-5113.

Theatre review: Julius Caesar at the Noel Coward Theatre
15:13 23 August 2012
A thrilling reworking brings startling clarity to Shakespeare's study of ruthless political struggle
»The RSC's thrilling Julius Caesar is one of those once-in-a-generation reworkings that brings a startlingly fresh understanding to the depiction of ruthless political struggle, the seizure of power in the wake of war and the ultimate futility of idealism.
It shows events that could have taken place in any number of modern Middle Eastern or African states, but director Gregory Doran – inspired by Nelson Mandela's reading of Shakespeare while in prison – chooses to set the play in sub-Saharan Africa, where recent history is plagued with bitter fighting between Western-backed warlords over territory, blood diamonds and other natural resources.
Caesar, the former army general, is a typical warlord – "a man of such feeble temper," as Cassius says – vain and brutal.
Cassius, the moral authority of the crumbling state, is splendidly played by Cyril Nri as clear-sighted but fearful Roman Senator, wary of Caesar's cynical bid for kingship and absolute power, and convinced that the state can only be saved by his assassination.
Despite his opposition to violence, Brutus is drawn into the conspiracy. A stunning performance by Paterson Joseph shows him as a tortured idealist and revolutionary who convinces himself that the corruption of the state can only be halted by Caesar's death.
Bathed in Caesar's blood, Brutus urges the conspirators to go to the marketplace and cry "Peace, Freedom and Liberty". Even as he says it, the phrase begins to sound hollow.
But his lack of ruthlessness ultimately seals his fate, when he refuses to countenance the death of Mark Antony, Caesar's chief ally, and allows him to speak at Caesar's funeral.
Antony, brilliantly portrayed by Ray Fearon as the great political manipulator, moves the crowd to tears, and they turn on the conspirators. One is captured and killed – a prologue to the deaths of both Cassius and Brutus and the establishment of a regime just as bloody as the one they sought to replace.
* Julius Caesar is at the Noel Coward Theatre in St Martin's Lane, WC2, until September 15

DesignAffairs created what they believe could be a giant leap forward for frame engineering and production for creating a low cost bicycle. The design takes advantage of an advanced polymer which combines high impact resistance, lightweight properties and a gentle flexibility that usually would only be expected on an old Italian steel frame.
The polymer is injection moulded, which allows affordable and precise mass production while enabling unique form factors and a multitude of possible color combinations. Initially the polymer was used in military applications. Even though the compound has a lower density than polycarbonate & acrylic it's advanced performance includes exceptional impact resistance and ultra-lightweight performance. It also offers outstanding chemical resistance and thermal stability as it is virtually unaffected by most organic and inorganic chemicals and withstands very hot and cold temperatures.

Roberto Cavalli vodka gift box
Produced in line with Italian tradition and the experience of the best distilleries, Roberto Cavalli Vodka is sophisticated and elegant, for more discerning palates.
Bottling in small lots gives it its exclusive character.
For many years Roberto Cavalli only shared the pleasure of this delicious ultra premium vodka with family and friends.
Cavalli's is the first vodka made entirely in Italy: inspired by and dedicated to the sexy woman, the icon and etaernal muse of Cavalli style.
Made with the purest water gushing from the slopes of Monte Rosa, Roberto Cavalli Vodka is produced using the finest quality grain grown in the valleys where the south-western Alps meet the river Po.
Four columns for the first distillation phase, a special copper pot still to complete the procedure and then filtering through flakes of Carrara marble: it is only by means of these procedures that Roberto Cavalli Vodka achieves its absolute purity.

An Overview of the Mediation Process in Georgia: A Court Registered Mediator and Lawyer ExplainsOctober 30, 2009
Many parties attempt to resolve their case by mediation, either in an effort to save time and money or simply because the court has ordered the parties to mediation. In either situation, it is important that the parties understand the mediation process and be willing to participate.
View More Criminal Defense Articles
In a Georgia mediation, all registered mediators should begin with an explanation of the rules of the mediation and what is expected of each party. This introduction usually includes the following:
1. The mediator is a neutral person who will facilitate the discussion between the parties but will not coerce or control the outcome. The mediator is not on anyone's side, and will not be making any rulings on facts, evidence or law.
2. The procedure for the mediation is the Plaintiff will provide an overview of their version of events, and then the Defendant will provide their version. The mediator may ask questions and should generally restate each side's opinion on the case. The parties and the mediator may have a group discussion on the case or separate meetings called caucuses (or a combination of both).
3. Confidentiality: the Georgia mediation process is confidential except child/ elder abuse, violence or threats of violence. Also, if subpoenaed, a mediator will almost never testify.
4. The mediator will not give any legal or financial advice, and the parties are encouraged to seek independent advice from professionals at any point during the mediation or during the applicable cool down period.
5. Many courts require mediation before a trial, such as matters concerning child support modification, but the participation of the parties is all that is required and the court cannot require settlement.
6. A Georgia mediation can be terminated at any time by the mediator or the parties.
7. The parties are expected to negotiate in good faith and full disclosure of matters material to any agreement reached.
8. The parties are free to consult legal counsel at any time and are encouraged to have any agreement reviewed by independent counsel prior to signing.
9. A mediated agreement, once signed, can have a significant effect upon the rights of the parties and upon the status of the case. The significant effect is generally that, if signed, the case is resolved via a contractual agreement.
10. In a Georgie mediation the parties must have the capacity to conduct good-faith negotiations and make decisions for themselves, including a decision to terminate the mediation if necessary. If you are medicated, feeling ill, confused or not in a right state of mind, let the mediator know and usually there will be a continuance, termination or a pause in the mediation.
At Breakfield & Associates, Attorneys, Georgia mediation lawyer John Breakfield welcomes anyone with any Personal Injury questions to Call or Email Us. Please remember that all mediation initial consultations are free of charge.

Just when you thought you had the president's health-care law figured out, it's changing. Some questions and answers about what's afoot and who's affected:
Q: What's the nub of the change, and why is President Obama changing course at this late date?
A: The president is letting insurance companies offer people another year of coverage under their existing plans even if those plans don't meet the requirements set out in his health-care law. He's doing so because of mounting frustration and anger over the millions of cancellation notices that have been going out to Americans whose plans don't measure up to the law's coverage standards.
Q: Problem solved?
- Seattle's vanishing black community
- Bellevue School District seeks to fire football coach Goncharoff over scandal
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Infections are the culprit in Alzheimer's disease, Harvard study suggests
- 1,000 fraternity, sorority members trash Lake Shasta campsite
Most Read Stories
A: No. Obama's so-called fix doesn't force insurance companies to do anything. It just gives them the option of extending old plans for existing customers in the individual market, and only if state insurance commissioners also give their OK.
Q: Sounds like a no-brainer. Why wouldn't insurance companies let people re-up?
A: The companies aren't happy about being thrown a curveball after they've already firmed up 2014 rates and plans. It will take a while to see how many agree to reinstate old plans for another year — and at what price.
Q: What's the early word?
A: Most companies and state insurance commissioners say they need time to study the changes before making a commitment. Aetna, the nation's third-largest health insurer, said it plans to extend some canceled policies. And Washington state's insurance commissioner said he won't allow insurance companies to extend the old policies. He said people can get better coverage on the new health-care exchange.
Q: Why not force insurance companies to extend those old policies, not just give them that option?
A: That's a more radical step. Some Democrats want that to happen but it almost certainly would require legislation from Congress — not just a presidential decision — and Republicans would object to such a stiff new requirement on the insurance industry. More steps may be required, though, to restore coverage for people losing it.
Q: The changes mainly affect the 5 percent of people who get their own insurance policies through the individual market. What's the big deal?
A: In a country of more than 300 million people, 5 percent is a big number. Roughly 14 million people buy their own policies, and many of those plans are not just junk insurance, contrary to what White House officials suggest. Already, more than 4 million people have gotten cancellation notices. And some small businesses are losing coverage for their workers too.
Plus, if the government can't get its HealthCare.gov website running better by Dec. 15, some people who got cancellations run the risk of having a break in coverage. The law was supposed to reduce the number of uninsured people, not increase it.
Q: So people who successfully make the switch to the new insurance marketplaces can rest easy?
A: Not really. If lots of healthy people who get cheaper insurance through the individual market end up keeping that coverage instead of switching to the more robust plans offered through "Obamacare," that could weaken the financial footing of plans offered by the insurance marketplaces.
Q: How so?
A: People with current plans are a known risk to insurers. At some point, they all had to pass the stiff medical screening that the law forbids starting next year. Insurers were counting on premiums from those with current individual plans to help balance out the cost of care for people who have been shut out of the system and who represent a potentially high risk. To the extent that healthier people stay out of the new insurance pool being created under the law, that would raise costs.
Q: What would happen then?
A: Higher rates, potentially. Premiums for 2014 are set; where the increases would show up is in premiums for 2015.
Q: I get my insurance through my job. Sounds like I don't need to worry.
A: The vast majority of people with employer-based plans shouldn't be affected by the changes announced by Obama.
Q: The health-care law was signed into law in 2010. Why is this issue coming up at the last minute?
A: The Obama administration miscalculated — big time — how many people would lose coverage in the transition to the new health-insurance marketplace. It specified that people who had plans before the law took effect could hang on to those plans. But it didn't anticipate the big wave of cancellations among people who had plans that changed after the law took effect or who bought new plans after the law kicked in.
Q: The president says "this fix" won't solve every problem and that doing more will require working with Congress. What else needs to be done? And is there any hope of Obama and the Congress agreeing on changes?
A: Before Washington became so politically polarized, major legislation was usually followed within a year or two by a "technical-corrections" bill that addressed inevitable unintended consequences and shortcomings. A bill as massive as the Affordable Care Act has many such issues, which the administration has tried to address through regulations, "guidance" and other administrative steps. Republicans are so adamant in opposing the law that it seems far from likely.
Associated Press writer Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar contributed.
