DescriptionThe Cho Aniki series returns with their first sequel, the one that would cement the series humorous fetish with bodybuilders and other assorted stuff. As in the original Cho Aniki: Super Big Brothers, Ai Cho Aniki is a side-scrolling shooter in which you have to clear several stages of enemies with your flying avatar. Said avatar this time can be either of the two "option" bodybuilders that were supporting characters in the original while the original's main cast plays only small cameo roles as they appear every now and then to drop power-ups.
Our two beloved speedo-wearing beefcakes also incorporate different play mechanics, as their attacks are often determined by button combinations (as in fighting games) which put a spin on the gameplay. Otherwise, the game's graphics and design are practically identical to the first game.

Absence of transparency should give voters pause
Secrecy is the hallmark of the pharmaceutical industry, which is why we aren't surprised by the lack of full disclosure about who's funding the hard-hitting campaign against a state issue that aims to lower some drug prices.
Big Pharma is spending millions of dollars to defeat State Issue 2 that will appear on the November general election ballot. If approved by the voters, the Ohio Drug Price Relief Act would result in state government agencies being able to buy prescription drugs at prices no higher than what the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs pays. The VA receives a federally mandated discount of about 24 percent on prescription drugs.
Proponents and opponents of the citizen-initiated statute have pulled out all the stops in their effort to sway Ohioans. There have been claims and counterclaims about the effects of the statute, especially with regard to the economic ramifications. We're left to wonder who's telling the truth.
A few weeks ago, we called for an independent evaluation of the issue because of the deep pockets that are financing the campaigns.
Ohio Taxpayers For Lower Drug Prices is leading the charge for passage of Issue 2 and is sponsored by the California-based AIDS Healthcare Foundation. The $800 million foundation is presided over by Californian Michael Weinstein.
The opposition, led by Ohioans Against the Deceptive Rx Ballot Issue, is being funded by the pharmaceutical industry.
This is a high-stakes game.
We thus renew our call for an objective review of the arguments put forth by both sides and for a financial analysis to determine if the claims of savings or increased drug costs are legitimate.
And now we demand truth in advertising, which means making public all the financial contributors involved in each side.
Campaign finance report
Our concerns about the money that's pouring into the state are triggered by a couple of stories in the Columbus Dispatch that blew the lid off a campaign finance report filed recently.
According to the Dispatch, members of the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA), an association of drug makers, has kicked in $15.8 million. However, only two companies voluntarily disclosed their contributions that totaled about $7 million.
The companies are Amgen Inc., headquartered in Thousand Oaks, Calif., and Biogen Inc. of Cambridge, Mass.
More than 30 drug companies belong to the association, which means they're all involved in the battle against State Issue 2.
Dale Butland, spokesman for the opposition, has publicly acknowledged that the pharmaceutical industry is financing the effort.
"PhRMA gets its money from its member companies," Butland said. " ... We've been totally open about the fact that PhRMA, the trade association for the pharmaceutical industry, is funding this campaign."
That's all well and good, but why the refusal to come clean with the identities of the companies, and how much money they've given to defeat State Issue 2?
It's a question that goes to the heart of our long-held belief that public policy should be developed in the bright light of the day.
The finance report filed by the opposition to Issue 2 has triggered two complaints filed with the Ohio Elections Commission by the proponents. The complaints seek full disclosure of the names of the drug companies financing the campaign.
As we noted in a recent editorial, Big Pharma isn't involved in the battle against Issue 2 because it has suddenly become altruistic.
The truth of the matter is the industry is worried that passage of State Issue 2 will open the floodgates to other such initiatives across the country.
Big Pharma has succeeded in blocking the Republican-controlled Congress from taking any action to lower the cost of prescription drugs.
It has even distracted President Donald J. Trump from making good on a campaign promise to deal with the skyrocketing prices.
Ohio voters have a right to all the information pertaining to the drug-cost state issue, which is why any refusal to identify the financial contributors to both campaigns is not only unacceptable, but suspicious.

Readers have doubtlessly noticed that Logitech's stock is being pummeled today. At one point, shares were down more than 14%; they're still 13% lower as I write this. The decline most likely results from Logitech's announcement that earnings per share (EPS) came in at only $0.71, almost 9% below analyst estimates. It hardly helped that the company's sales fell 3% below forecasts.
Logitech did report year-over-year sales growth of 18.6% and diluted EPS growth of 7.6%. However, a closer look casts doubt upon the quality of that earnings growth; the company's 25.1% growth in accounts receivable and 38.5% growth in inventory both outpaced sales growth. I'm particularly concerned by the inventories, which grew more than twice as fast as sales.
Logitech's margins were even more worrisome. Gross, operating, and net margins all declined from last year, though gross margins were up sequentially from the second quarter. The shrinking margins are important because the company has numerous competitors in nearly every market in which it operates, all constantly unveiling new products. In the mouse, keyboard, and trackball market, the company bumps up against Microsoft
Investors should continue to pay close attention to Logitech's inventory and accounts-receivable balances going forward -- particularly the strength of their growth relative to sales. The results weren't impressive this quarter, but one quarter does not a trend make. Logitech still expects to deliver at least 20% sales growth for all of fiscal 2006 (ending March 31).
The shares look fairly valued here -- if the company can manage free cash flow growth of about 10%. If margins and inventory balances improve, then free cash flow growth should slightly exceed that figure, and today's sell-off will look overdone. Given the competitive nature of Logitech's business, I don't yet feel confident that such free cash flow growth is attainable. If you disagree, the shares look somewhat attractive, and today's price slide could represent a buying opportunity.

Markets Right Now: Stocks closing flat on Wall Street
NEW YORK (AP) — The latest on developments in global financial markets (all times local):
4:00 p.m.
U.S. stocks are closing slightly higher Thursday as rising oil prices gave energy companies a lift.
Oil rose $1.43 to $48.22 a barrel in New York. That boosted energy companies: Marathon Oil rose 6.2 percent and Devon Energy rose 3.4 percent.
The Dow Jones industrial average gained 24 points, or 0.1 percent, to 18,598. The Standard & Poor's 500 index rose 5 points, or 0.2 percent, at 2,187. The Nasdaq composite rose 11 points, or 0.2 percent, at 5,240.
Wal-Mart rose nearly 2 percent after it reported strong earning and raised its full-year outlook. Cisco Systems fell nearly 1 percent after delivering weak quarterly results and announcing plans to lay off 7 percent of its staff.
12:00 p.m.
U.S. stocks are trading nearly flat Thursday as investors find little to stir the market out of its summer doldrums.
The Dow Jones industrial average is flat at 18,572. The Standard & Poor's 500 index was 2 points, or 0.1 percent, higher at 2,184. The Nasdaq composite is up 0.2 percent or 11 points at 5,240.
Wal-Mart Stores climbed 1.5 percent after it raised its annual estimates and reporting strong second quarter profit. Cisco Systems fell after the network technology company announced weak quarterly earnings and said it would lay off around 7 percent of its staff.
Yields on the 10-year Treasury are also flat, while energy and precious metals prices are rising.
10:00 a.m.
U.S. stocks are opening little changed Thursday, with earnings from retail giant Wal-Mart and weekly unemployment data in investors' sights.
The Arkansas-based retailer lifted its earnings outlook and delivered strong second-quarter profit and sales. Wal-Mart shares rose 1.7 percent.
Meanwhile data out today showed fewer people sought U.S. unemployment benefits last week, a signal that layoffs are scarce and employers are hiring at a solid clip.
The Dow Jones industrial average is down 18 points, or 0.1 percent, to 18,556. The Standard & Poor's 500 index was unchanged at 2,182. The Nasdaq composite is also flat at 5,228.

It can happen: We love our children but sometimes, by the time they're adults, they may have grown into people we don't like very much. We may find their choice of life style disappointing. dislike the way they treat their siblings or--and this is especially divisive today--find their present political outlook wrongheaded, obnoxious and uncaring.
This was at the heart of a letter to Carolyn Hax in which a mother wrote that she didn't want to end her relationship with her daughter but that "it is so painful to recognize that she is not someone I would choose to have in my life if we were not related." What. she wondered, could she do to keep up a relationship with her daughter? She felt flummoxed by her deep disappointment in her child. To her credit, she kept her feelings to herself--"as a person separate from me, I respect her having her own opinions"--but was dismayed by her daughters unwillingness to try to understand others' circumstances and disadvantages. How could she have conversations with her child "without feeling like a hypocrite or fraud."
Hax's first words of wisdom were a reassurance: The mom's reckoning is one more people will identify with than not.
The next bit of advice was a dollop of brain science so the mom could better understand her child. To wit, we are all wired differently.
Finally a practical suggestion: Find an area of interest that you share--be it cooking, baseball, gardening, antiquing, working out.
Activity, Hax reminds us,, can be extremely effective at nurturing bonds and crowding opinions out--a bridge over today's troubled waters. It can work even when we like our child but have areas of disagreement, want to avoid a hot-spot of the moment or are just having trouble communicating.

I was invited to attend one of the Blackrock Guild's craft nights by an ICA member and I cheerfully accepted.
The ICA Blackrock Guild's craft group have been meeting once a week for 20 years to craft and catch up in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.
When I arrived, I was greeted with tea and shown the spacious craft room.
While I was there, I idly worked away at a stitched card and gleefully listened to the members talk about there various projects, show their creative talents, and give advice to myself and each other on current and future projects.

New Vehicle Extended Coverage
Why Do I Need Extended Mechanical Coverage? Don't I Have Coverage Now?
Yes, you have coverage now. However, the best-built machines break down as they get older. (Even with good maintenance.) The full warranty on your vehicle expires after the first few years. Components like; fuel pumps, power steering, alternators, water pumps, window regulators, sunroof modules, air conditioning, brake calipers, abs brake modules, radio, airbag systems, electronic ignition modules and more will cost you out of pocket to repair when your vehicle is out of warranty. Purchasing an extended mechanical coverage plan now will cover these components when your vehicle's warranty expires later. No one wants to make a repair payment on top of a car payment.
Can't I Buy That Coverage At A Later Date, Like Right Before My Warranty Expires?
You could, if you want to pay more, for less coverage. Right when you purchase your new vehicle is the best time to get the lowest cost for the most coverage. As your vehicle ages the cost of mechanical coverage goes up. One, for the simple fact that prices of goods and services go up all the time and two, you are getting closer to the time you will need the coverage so those prices go up and the level, term, and percentage of coverage drops. On top of that, many customers forget to purchase the coverage later and when their warranty expires and they have a broken part or repair it is too late.
How Can I Pay For It?
You can add it to your finance contract and include it in with your monthly payment so you don't have to pay for the whole plan up front now or later.
Is It Expensive?
It is more affordable than you think. It all depends on the vehicle you are purchasing, deductible, term, mileage, and level of coverage. Please talk with a Markley Motors Business Manager to choose the right Honda coverage and price out your Honda plan before you purchase your new vehicle.

Tokyo is an ultra-modern cyber-neon concrete sprawl of urban decay. But it does have some traditional Japanese buildings and temples too. We checked in to a few of the most well know shrines and parks to get our fill of stereo typical Japan.
The temples and shrines are beautiful buildings, there's no doubting that, but my general opinion is that if you've seen one, you've pretty much seen them all. The now well documented syndrome of temple overdose (know as OTing) is a common complaint by visitors to the far east.
The illness is caused by trying to visit too many famous temples in any given area, in a short amount of time, and is common is Japan, China, Cambodia and Thailand. The symptoms are fatigue, boredom, and a desire to never see another temple as long as you live (though these symptoms normally pass after the victim has been removed from temple stimuli).
I am glad to say that I have managed to avoid this illness, largely by not bothering to visit many temples. By keeping my temple intake well below the RDA (the World Health Organisation recomends you visit a maximum of one temple per day) I have so far managed to stay healthy.
Stay safe, view temples in moderation.

T*O*K*Y*O Part 2: Fashion Freaks
The Fukui crew spent a good day in the Harajuku district of Tokyo. This area has become a famous place to bear witness to the freakily dressed up kids, who congregate here on Sundays, showing off their latest fashion creations.
This phenomenon is known as "Cos Play" (costume play). The main style on display was the French maid/little Bo-Peep look, of which there are infinite variations. I believe this has been deemed the "Gothic Lolita". There is even a magazine published here which is devoted to this style and advises readers on how to get the Lolita look.
Scores of teenagers, the majority of which were girls, dressed in their Sunday best milled around, whipping out the "Vs" to appease the relentless attack by the happy snappers. There were an unhealthily number of middle age, pervy looking gaijin (foriegners), who were rubbing their hands in glee at the freak fest, filling their memory cards to the brim with fresh material.
The blonde French maid (see below) was especially popular with these men, and she even tried to avoid being captured on film by one particularly depraved looking man, shouting "sukebe!" (pervert) at him. However, he persevered and she eventually gave in, letting him get the money shot.
We headed onwards to Harajuku park, where we came across some Japanese Teddy Boys, with monster quiffs, and jitterbug dance moves. We then wandered deep into the green, soaking up the buzzing atmosphere as we went. We saw all manner of spectacles; djembe drumming circles banging out African beats, high schools girls practicing synchronized dance moves, capoirea high kicking martial artists, Zion clad regeae fans grooving to Marley, and a skateboarding dog who was particularly popular with the ladies.
In in all, the park was the perfect place to watch the world flow by and absorb the energy of the "normal" everyday Tokyoites, and was one of the high-lights of the trip.
If only Fukui had a park too.

T*O*K*Y*O: Part 1 - Sashimi Sunrise
Two weeks ago, JET's from around the country desended on Tokyo for the re-contractors conference. I have not been to Tokyo since my arrival in Japan last August, so I was looking forward to exploring more of this concrete paradise.
A group from Fukui headed down early so as to make the most of this all expenses paid trip (thanks Japanese Government, you shouldn't have), and I was guilty of thinking that the two day conference was simply going to be an annoying thorn in my side, preventing me from enjoying Tokyo to the full.
However, I was surprised and impressed to find that the conference itself was actually very well orgainised and every talk I went to left me with fresh ideas, and new found motivaiton for teaching as well as learning Japanese. It was also nice to see so many familiar faces and catch up with a few old friends.
A group of us opted for the over night bus from Fukui to Tokyo, taking around 8 hours. Full marks to the vehicle, it was the limo of the bus world, a far cry from the National Express or Greyhound buses that I have had the mis-pleasure of experiencing. With three separate aisles, and seats that reclined to almost vertical it was the most comfortable bus I have ever ridden. However, it was still a bus, and didn't provide its passengers with the deepest of sleep.
The worst thing about taking the over night bus is that you are rudely awakend rather early and deposited in central Tokyo at the bonne heure of 5:30am. With little else to do at this time, we headed to the semi famous Tokyo Fish Market, which was in full swing. Any sluggishness was soon forced out of us as we had to stay alert to stay alive. Miniture trucks bearing loads of fishy cargo constantly zipped about through the narrow stalls, delivering their wares, and probably getting annoyed at the annoying gaijin who get in the way, take photos of everything, and never buy anything.
Stall upon stall of octopus, eel, tuna, and every other fish under the sea was too much for the veggies of the group who lasted barely three minutes, before retreating to a nearby cafe. The rest of us took in the atmoshere, witnessed a fish bidding war, and finally managed to escape without injury. After taking our fill of fish photos, we reconviened and then headed onwards, deep into the dense concrete of Tokyo city.

Chopsticks and stones may break my bones
The Japanese attention to inane, pointless details sometimes infuriates me. The idea that there is only one way of doing things, and any other way, even if it has no effect what so ever on the outcome, is incorrect, pisses me off. The fact that the Japanese word for "different" (chigau) is the same word for "wrong" is a telling sign of their traditional intolerance of doing something other than in the percieved "correct way".
School lunches are served in the staff room. A trolley is wheeled in from the kitchen, and any teachers that happen to be present at the time team together to dish out the meals. If I'm there, I always lend a hand which involves laying out the trays, chopsticks, bowls and plates and serving out equal portions onto each tray.
However, it's not as easy as it sounds. There is one member of staff who objects heavily to the angle at which I lay the chopsticks on the tray. I have seen her in the past, go to the needless trouble of rearranging every pair of sticks that I have placed on the tray, simply to make a point.
Today, she went one step further. As I placed each pair of chopsticks on each tray, I could feel her eyes boring into my back, and I knew she was going to take action. Seeing the chopsticks at the side of the tray, rather than at bottom of the tray was just too crazy for her, and she jumped up, ran over, and announced: "Sam, NO, LIKE THIS!".
Now, I can understand why certain things are done the way they are. The highly ritualised Japanese Tea Ceremony, for example is performed using very precise and carefully controlled movements, appropriate for such a formal occasion and of course there is etiquette for most things, including where cutlery is placed but in this particular situation it DOES NOT MATTER. This is school lunch. Served on a tray. In the staff room. It's not silver service. The rice isn't even hot, for f**k's sake.
So feeling the scarlet mist rising, I questioned her as to why the chopsticks absolutely had to be laid along the bottom of the tray. Her demonstation soon cleared things up; she placed the sticks in the so called "correct position" and then, very slowly, making sure I was paying full attention, picked them up.
Oh, I see, why didn't you tell me before! A potential diner is able to pick up chopsticks, only if they are at placed along the bottom of a tray. Any other position generates an invisible force field, which makes it completely impossible for the hungry victim to pick them up.
In my mind I reversed the situation. If I were in England, and a foreign co-worker was helping to serve out lunch, and put the knife and fork, at, woe betide, a slightly different position to normal, would I go to the length of moving every pair back to what is considered "correct positioning"? Would I bollocks.
Do not despair though funkydrummer readers, for a terrible revenge has been plotted. I will adhere to her nit picking ways, day in, day out, letting her think she has converted me, then, on my last day of work, when it comes to lunch time, I will place the chopsticks, so that they are sticking vertically out of each bowl of rice, [a huge faux pas in Japan] and for the piece de resistance, I will attach a Union Jack Flag, to each stick.
Chop stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

The Last Ride of the season: Haku-san Mountain
Before wiping my board down and putting it into summer hibernation, me and my team of snow lovers made one final search for snow on the scared mountain of Haku-san. At 2702m, this was to be the second highest mountain that I've climbed in Japan after Fuji (see October Archives) and spans the prefectures of Ishikawa, Fukui and Gifu. Fuji was tough, there's no doubting that, but Haku-san left me far more exhausted than Fuji ever did.
The hiking team consisted of me, my American friend Brandon, local legend Yasu, and two new Japanese guys Adachi, and Yomei, both keen and talented freestyle skiers.
We kitted up, and commenced the hike at around 9am. After just a few minutes, I knew we were in for a tough time. It was a very warm day, and hiking with a board, boots and other gear in the heat was hard going. After crossing a suspension bridge and hiking up a stream bed, we hit a narrow rocky path that wound its way up the mountain.
It must have taken at least 1.5 hours to get to the first patches of intermittent snow. We stopped here for a much needed rest, my legs feeling the exertion. Haku-san is an extinct volcano and one of the three most sacred holy mountains of Japan. Because of this, it is a popular climbing destination, and we saw many others making their way up, including several skiers, but we were the only snowboarders there, to our knowledge.
Once we reached the snowline, the difficulty of the hike increased. I had opted to climb in shoes (my not so trusty Merrels) rather than my snowboarding boots, which although lighter, had considerably less grip, and saw me taking many a tumble in the snow.
Brandon too, experienced similar problems, especially during some of the steepest sections where he would take two steps forward, only to slide one step back. However, slowly, after several breaks and around four hours, we made progress, eventually stopping at the top of the steepest chute to break for lunch.
Yasu fired up his camping stove, reached for his saucepan, and was soon cooking a mix of noodles and cow intestines, which although not my favourite food, still went down well after burning so many calories on the way up.
At this point, we could see the peak, perhaps just 30 minutes away, and we sat in the sun, drank a can of celebratory beer each, and chatted away. Nearby stood a shrine and a Japanese gate. Brandon and I discussed the idea of building a ramp up to it and performing a few slides and tricks over it to impress our Japanese friends, but the idea was soon dismissed as a waste of precious energy.
After lunch came the final assault. A quick blitz of around half an hour to take us to the top. By this time I had summit fever, and my pace had picked up again, as I followed in Yasu's footsteps whilst he powered on ahead.
Yasu is a 48 year old smoker, regular drinker, even a self confessed alcoholic (well, he does own a bar). Despite this, he was strides ahead of us young whippersnappers, all of whom are 20 years his junior, and he reached the peak several minutes ahead of me.
Brandon rolled up a few minutes after me along with Japanese friend Adachi, but Yomei decided to give the peak a miss and waited for us on the lower slope. There was much rejoicing at having reached the top. Brandon in particular was especially happy, and in true American fashion let rip with a series of "Whoops!" and "Hell Yeahs!". Little did he know what was in store for him on the way down.
We paused for a sort while, then swapped shoes for boards, donned gloves, before finaly strapping in, and beginning the decsent. The first slope was pure joy, cruising down the perfect pitch in the sun shine sugar snow, feasting on a spectacular scenery, carving clean white lines into the surface of the speckled, dirt ridden snow.
Yasu was leading the pack, and going at quite a speed when he experienced some technical difficulties which led to him being deposited heavily onto the ground, leaving a ski and his poles strewn out in his wake. After discovering that he was not seriously injured, we all had a good laugh at him, and continued onwards, with Yasu deciding to exercise a little more speed control from then on.
After having to unstrap to walk over a rocky outcrop we arrived at the top of the next slope, which was fairly steep, and littered with rock debris. We carefully made our way down this pitch, but were then faced with a long and challenging traverse to get to the next slope.
It's times like this that I'm reminded of how impractical snowboards are. Whilst Brandon and I where unstraping our boards, scrambling up, slipping down, and generally struggling to make our way across this steep and arkward section, the skiers were far ahead, engaging the terrain with ease.
It was at this point that Brandon decided he did not want to be where he was. He was physically exhausted, was having difficulty breathing, and was very unhappy (to say the least) with the tricky terrain. Admittedly it was challenging for us both. At one point I lost my footing and found myself flying down the slope uncontrollably, desperately hanging on to my board with one hand whilst trying to stop myself with the other. I eventually managed to grab a tree branch, halting my rapid decent and hauled myself to my feet with my last scraps of energy.
Brandon continued to verbally abuse the mountain, claiming that the situation was "ridiculous" amongst other less flattering terms. However, we both knew that the only way down, was across, so continued to make our slow traverse, praying we wouldn't take another fall, whilst our Japanese skiing friends patiently waited in the sun, and most probably had a good chuckle at our predicament.
We eventually made it over to where they were sat, but by this time Brandon was past the point of no return, and all traces of his love for snow had long since evapourated. Next was the final straight, back down to whence we came. Our young Japanese friends flew down, popping 360 spins at every available opportunity. I attempted to follow suit, but ending up misjuding and having a close encounter of the first kind with a tree.
The very last stretch was a battle through the forest. As the trunks closed in around us, tight technical boarding was required to navigate through the birch and pine. Somewhere along the way we managed to pick up an out of control telemark skier, who provided us with much entertainment as he appeared not to have learnt how to stop, so performed a series of quite spectacular collisions with trees, rocks and other people.
By this time Brandon had given in to the mighty mountain, and fully accepted defeat. He removed his board and made the remainder of his way down on foot. It could be said with quite some certainty, that at this point in time, the young American was not a "happy chappy".
Eventually the trees became too dense to ride through, so boards and skis went back onto packs, and out came the hiking poles. Yasu raced off down he mountain as he had to get back to open his bar, leaving the rest of us to make our way back at a more leisurely pace.
That final hike was probably the hardest of all. Exhausted from our long ascent, tricky traverses, burdened with heavy gear, and in dire need of decent rest, we still had a good 1.5 hours of walking to get back to the car. With aching legs and shoulders, sore feet and bodies in need of some serious t.l.c., we endured on. As we neared the base, Brandon's sprits rose again, and by the time we were at the car, he was back to his normal jovial self, and we were already joking about how he had "lost it up there".
In total, the 9.5 hour round trip left us thoroughly exhausted, and good for nothing but bed. Overall, it was definitely more about the hiking than the riding, but despite our fatigue, it was a great day, and a great work out.
It would be nice to return when the snow is deep and powdery, but for now my board is in a deep sleep, dreaming of the day it will awaken from it's summer slumber, and grace the slopes once more.

The ASSH is proud to have sponsored one of its young members, Dr. Christopher Dy, from the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Washington University School of Medicine for the USBJI Young Investigators Initiative (USBJI Yii) grant writing workshop. The workshop took place over May 19-21, 2017 in Rosemont, IL, and is an opportunity for early career investigators to develop the skills for writing competitive grants to funding agencies, including the NIH and CIHR. The Fall Session workshop will take place November 10-12, 2017, in Toronto, Canada. To be considered for ASSH sponsorship, submit your c.v. and letter of interest to [email protected] by June 15, 2017.
"Participating in the USBJI YII program has not only strengthened my grant-writing and communication skills, but has also allowed me to reflect on my future goals as a clinician-scientist. I look forward to putting these skills to use and I encourage other young investigators to apply for this worthwhile program." - Dr. Dy
For more information regarding the USBJI Yii, visit the USBJI website at: https://www.usbji.org/programs/yii/call-for-applications
Tip 1: Start with the basics like "carpal tunnel." You can always add more words later to narrow
Tip 2: Choose words carefully and avoid terms that do not concern surgery.
Tip 3: Avoid capitalization and conjunctions like "the," "and," "or," or "in." Also, avoid using media types like "video," "article," and "picture."
Tip 4: Your results can be refined by using either the tabs at the top (Video, Articles/WEB, Images, JHS, Products/Vendors), or the filters on the left (Filter by Source, Filter by Format, Filter by Purpose, etc.).
Tip 5: Punctuation can enhance your search as well. Use quotes ("search term") to only include
pages with the same words in the same order. But only use this if you are looking for an exact word or phrase, otherwise you may exclude helpful results. Add an asterisk (search term*) as a placeholder for any unknown or wildcard terms. For example, C*l Tunnel would give you results for Cubital Tunnel and Carpal Tunnel. Place a question mark (search term?) for single-character wildcard matching. For example, pa?ent would give you results for parent, patent, etc. You may also use the plus sign (search + word) between words for words you must have in the results.
Tip 6: We are always trying to improve our search, if you are having any trouble with search please refer to our survey here and we will use your comments to improve our search. You can also watch our search help video.

List your current ailments here:
Sleep deprivation - I only missed an hours kip last night due to a randy fox outside the window, but it's severely fucked me up today. God knows how I'd cope with a teething child thing.
RSI / Tennis elbow - RSI in the left arm from keyboard use (and a bit of Wii), tennis elbow in the right from work and badminton. AND NOTHING ELSE.
Back pains - My girlfriend finally said enough is enough and I'm now into my 4th rather expensive session of physiotherapy. But in all fairness, since I've been swimming a bit and doing the 30 minutes of exercises (NO, NOT THOSE EXERCISES) first thing in the morning it's been getting a lot better. She says I have the worst posture and upper body strength of a man my age she's ever met. Skillz.
Vitiligo - This is a new one. Found I have some yesterday, so off to sort that out on Friday all being well. Or get depigmented like Jacko if there's no hope for me. So that's nice.
Jeez, I'm only 31....
What the fuck is wrong with you?
As I've not played 5-a-side in about 6 months I currently have no injuries.
I will be doing a lot of tombstoning from Thursday onwards so if you don't hear from me after then I'm dead.
sleep deprivation
weird spot on my cheek, it looks abit sloppy
I warn whichever side I'm on this Sunday
That I wouldn't expect any miracle performances.
1) Sleepiness- I have not been sleeping well due to work rubbishness playing on my mind
2) Joint pains- My knees are killing my when I walk up stairs.
3) Bad back- Been sleeping wonkey I think as it is killing me 50% of the time but I'm too lazy to get it seen too
4) Phlegmy, sore tight throat- This cold will not come out. My body is fighting it but its just on the brink of being gone! argh
Old age and
flea bites.
1. Tiredness- did 28hrs in the studio last weekend, band prac last night and I'm absolutely shattered
2. Bad knee- I think it's the damp weather.
3. Pain at the back of my jaw, I think it may be wisdom teeth.
I'm in perfect health. Go me!
1. face hurts like i've been punched
and i haven't
2. insect bite on leg
right foot
torn ligaments
bored out of my mind
chronic headaches. i should probably go to the doctor and get it looked at.
but it'll probably be something like having my glasses too tight.
but then again it could be something serious.
Well then...
Sleep deprivation - not sure why, had quite a bit of sleep. Still feel tired though.
Jaw pain - brilliant goalkeeping skills in evidence last night, saved a tough shot with my face. I say 'saved', it wasn't going in. The bloke who did showed immediate sympathy by shouting 'Fuck's sake!' and then doing that little Tim Henman self-encouragement gesture. Nice chap.
Cough - I've had a cough for almost a month now. Probably consumption or AIDS. Pretty annoying though.
Cold - I now appear to have a cold.
If someone could pretend to be sympathetic then I'll pretend back.
my botty is bleeding lots when i go potty
there was half a mugfull on saturday but now its clearing up a bit to the usual few spots at the end of wiping. possibly slightly worrying tho...?
- silverfoxqpr this'd this
I forgot, terrible tinnitus the last few days,
not sure i should go and see Kong tomorrow or not.
Is that tomorrow?
Ah bugger...
red or black?
I have infected sinuses and lungs
as a bit of an overhang form my body coping with stopping smoking, I think. I coughed up something this morning which looked like an actual piece of lung. I think it may have been a bit of paneer and ginger though. Yesterday I blew my nose and a foot long piece of snot came out from the back of my brain. My head felt so light afterwards. I need to get some sudafed and do another one of those soon.
Also, I'm just out of the shower and have hot red rash right across my chest. I think I have cat aids :(
- splitterwill this'd this
Oh yes, I am also feeling fat
I had to leave the zip of my skirt a tiny bit open the other night and it made me weep. A lot.
I still don't really know why I feel so dizzy everyday
Nor why I can't sleep when I should and can't stay awake when I really need to.
Other than this I think some tooth problems are my main concern.
1 fractured elbow
1 sprained wrist
1 dodgy hip
1 scab from mosquito bite on foot
1 scab from itchy part of foot next to said mosquito bite
1 scab on toe from stone in shoe
\ /
Dilocated shoulder
weak as a kitten because of it, and it's getting worse every time it happens.
Headache - standard.
Sleep deprivation - as always.
A mild cold.
Stress related headaches and nausea. Caused by my issuing of court proceedings against my former landlord, who owes me about £1,000. I'll probably lose the case and have to pay all of his fees.
Stress related insomnia. Caused by not having any money because of the above.
Irritation caused by Athletes Foot on left foot.
I've been in better shape it has to be said...
keratoconus - only use one eye to see atm, constant headaches
costiocondritis in chest - painful
tendonitis in left knee - v painful
all the above are basically untreatable...huzzah

There are several motives for this overlap. For another thing, some people are born with "high-reactive" temperaments that predispose them to equally shyness and introversion.

I set out on a journey in 2013, unsure of where it would go and I am already embarking on the new journey in 2014. I am looking forward to sharing where the path will lead with…so stay tuned!
2014 is the year of the horse…and HOW fitting. I don't follow astrology in any great detail, but I follow things that deal with horses so I'm in.
Doing research online, I found a great description of what the Chinese Astrology says about the Year of the Horse:
"The Wood Horse year is a time of fast victories, unexpected adventure, and surprising romance. It is an excellent year for travel, and the more far away and off the beaten path the better. Energy is high and production is rewarded. Decisive action, not procrastination, brings victory. But you have to act fast in a Horse year. If you are not 100% secure about a decision, then don't do it. Events move so quickly in a Horse year that you don't want to gallop off in the wrong direction." (see more)
Wishing you all the best in the new year. Giddy up and live those dreams of yours!
xo, Ci

Study: My Understanding of Options
Engineering And The Best Of This Field Of Study
One of the most popular courses out there that a ton of under-grads would want to take up is basically engineering. Although the field of engineering does not require its engineers to have a more advanced understanding about their field of work, studying engineering is still something that people think will eventually come in handy in every aspect of a person's life, be it about fixing toys or completing odd chores around the home. This is the very reason as to why more under grad kids would want to take up engineering as their first course in college. But of course, just like any other course, the materials of this field of study is very vast. There are basically every kind of textbooks and reference books that you need to study about, plus the dummy guides that are made for your learning experience to be easier. But since the learnings will usually be all experience based and application based, most of the students will have to get their hands on as many sample application books as they can, thus making the whole learning experience even more expensive.
Since not everyone has the capacity of paying for expensive and pricey engineering books, there are websites all over the internet that can be purchased by these students at very reasonable discounts. A number of these books found online are still very much in good condition, plus they are even cheaper than the brand new ones. People may also learn more about engineering through the used books that can be sold again to the very same supplier at the end of a semester or if the person is done learning, which can help you gain back a huge part of your investment. You can basically order the books and have them delivered to your doorsteps with just a few clicks on your computer. But if ever you need even more books and would want to stock a ton of them to learn engineering, you will then have to buy from an actual book shop, since they have it all there.
Needless to say, not every engineering book out there can give you all the knowledge that you need to be able to learn about the field of work. You should also have some knowledge learned from engineering tutorials and engineering videos found online to learn about other sub-topics and be interested about them. It may require you to do more effort for that, but it sure will be fun to have the experience. To have a better and more fun experience, you also need to search up and look up for engineering tutorials online so that you can have a better grasp of knowledge about the study.

text: This beautiful family is my BFF's... If you follow my blog you're sure to have seen their faces before!! This session started off a little drizzly (literally - it was raining on us!!) but ended up perfect. I love the natural interactions I was able to capture of their family just being "them". I'm not supposed to talk about it (mainly because I forbid it!!), but they're leaving us in only a few short weeks... Breaks my heart just thinking about it! I'm glad we were able to get these before they left, although I'm sure there will be many more to come!! Love you guys!

Women's Basketball Preview
- Updated: 11/02/2016
Things are looking up for the 2016-2017 Girls Varsity Basketball team. Under the leadership of the two seniors Natalie Bunton and Alivia Johnston, this team is ready to work.
Natalie Bunton, point guard, and Alivia Johnston, post, have been in the Westminster basketball program for all four years of high school. They both have been a huge part to each years team, and continue being determined.
Bunton had big shoes to fill last year becoming the starting point guard after Charisse Williams, who now plays in college at Lindenwood. But Bunton jumped at the challenge and worked hard in and out of season, and stepped up her junior year.
Alivia Johnston, being one of the team's only "post player", also had to step up and become a force on defense, while also having to be able to score in the paint.
"This season is going to be one of the best yet because we have a lot of young talent that is going to be pushed harder than they are used to," said Johnston.
Last year, three freshmen made the varsity team. Of these, two were starters in most games. Claire Sanden, Kiley McKee, and Kristen Keys, now sophomores, will be a core part of the team.
Claire Sanden stepped up last year and stayed strong in the paint for the Wildcats'. Being a freshman and a starting Varsity Center for the team may seem daunting, but proved not to be a problem for Sanden.
"I would say it was a little intimidating going up against big senior girls but it was always fun being able to get better and work harder than them during the games," said Sanden.
During the long winter season, days can seem really long and motivation can be scarce. But the girls varsity basketball team is ready and determined to make this season memorable.
"I'm excited to spend my last season with this group of girls! We will strive to be the best we can be and be a good competitive team," said Bunton.
Coming off last season with a record of 3-22, the players are excited to make changes and start winning some games.
"I'm so excited to see the team gel and become close because that will be our key to success," added Johnston.
The Varsity team is looking forward to an improved and intense season. With great senior leaders and a strong pool of young talent, this Westminster Girls Varsity team will be ready to compete in their first game on November 22nd at Marquette!
The Cats should improve greatly this year and hope to have a winning record at the end of the regular season.
Come out and support your Wildcats throughout the season!
