Unemployment on the rise among Sprint Cup drivers and crew members
By admin | November 2, 2011
By Richard Allen
With a wave of recent announcements from various teams, it appears as though there will be a significant rise in the unemployment rate of NASCAR Sprint Cup drivers. These announcements are coming not only from smaller and less successful teams but also from the behemoth mega-teams who have proven race winning records.
Since the economy is not showing the signs of recovery that many corporations would like, they are scaling back on what might be considered frivolous spending. And with the rates demanded by Sprint Cup teams, sponsorship is one of those expenses easily written off.
In just the most recent days, Roush Fenway Racing has stated their intention to scale back from four cars to three in 2012. Package deliverer UPS, sponsor of RFR's #6 Ford, will become an associate backer of Carl Edwards' #99 rather than a primary sponsor.
As of now, RFR only has signed sponsorship for Edwards and the #16 car of Greg Biffle. The organization plans to field cars for 2003 Sprint Cup champion Matt Kenseth whether full sponsorship is found or not. However, running two cars without adequate sponsorship would be impossible. So, the #6 car will scaled back and driver David Ragan, who won earlier this year in Daytona, will be out of fulltime employment.
Another power team facing a similar situation as Roush Fenway Racing is that of Richard Childress Racing. Clint Bowyer, who just two weeks ago won in Talladega, had to be let go due to lack of sponsorship commitments for his #33 Chevrolet.
RCR also plans to cut from four teams to three on a fulltime basis by next season.
Bowyer recently signed with Michael Waltrip Racing with Five Hour Energy as a backer. With the announcement of their new driver's arrival it appeared as though MWR was one organization that might experience expansion rather than contraction going into the coming campaign. However, word has just surfaced that such may not be the case after all.
Rumor has it that Mark Martin will move into MWR's #00 car on a part-time basis in 2012. That moves a former fulltime car into the ranks of part-time. And, it moves driver David Reutimann into the ranks of unemployed. Apparently, this move was also sponsor driven as Aaron's looks to cut costs by scaling back its NASCAR involvement.
Add to all of the above mentioned changes that earlier in the year Team Red Bull announced its pending departure from the sport at the end of this season. While it was already known that driver Kasey Kahne was only to be with that team temporarily, Brian Vickers was left looking for a place to go. And more, potential open seats for all of these abandoned drivers already mentioned have been eliminated.
The unfortunate result of all these moves is that a number of drivers, race winning drivers like Reutimann, Vickers and Ragan, will be looking for work and will have a very difficult time finding it.
And what's more, for every driver out of work, there are scores more crew members looking for jobs who do not have the cash reserves of unemployed drivers to fall back on.
Elliott Sadler may have unknowingly begun a new trend when he moved from the Sprint Cup ranks to the Nationwide Series on a fulltime basis last year. There may very well be a number of others looking, or even hoping, to do the same thing very soon.

Locked in drivers is killing the sport, drivers that will never ever win a race are in no matter what. Former champions is another joke, the cars should line up by speed period . Lets have only 36 cars start and we will have real races.

I think that what wee see happening is a combination of several things. In no certain order
1.The top 35 rule which eliminates new teams or major sponsors (for the most part)
2. The ridiculous expense of sponsoring a car. $20 million for a season? Get real.
3. The expanding power of the internet and social media. Where for a modest expense you can reach people worldwide.
There's others but if people think that things will change when the economy turns around just ask yourself. If I improved my business without spending 20 mill on Nascar, why should I do it now just because I have it.

Glad to see a few poster complaining about the basics again, you know, the top 35. If i might again add the spec series format, the shoot out in Feb which should go back to pole winners only, and of course the Chase, which should go the way of the doe doe bird, that includes whats his face Brian. Hope he likes what he has created, because he will be the only one watching if things don't change. Not the first time I have seen a turn key thriving business run into the ground by someone(family member) who got the job because they have the same last name and really have no business being in charge!

Rich, I am not going to be no Toyotaman after Miami and it serves me right my 2nd Manufacturer Toyota treated me like cattle this year after Red Bull decided to lurch Cole Whitt and 00 is NOT Reutimann! I wish that someone should say "Where is the Love?" by the Black Eyed Peas with Justin Timberlake and sadly, Jack Sprague only now's come back to racing after a 2 and a Half Year Hiatus.

With numerous TV credits (Letterman, Leno, Rosie and an HBO Half Hour Comedy Special, to name a few), Liebman is a household name. In her live show, this Long Island native with the charming stage presence will likely sublimate her way into your heart.

staff. top class.
did not dislike any thing
The staff were really friendly from the receptionist to the cleaning staff. Also the Beefeater was friendly, good value & well run. The room was spotlessly clean & very comfortable. I would recommend it to young & old. Nothing was too much trouble.
Did exactly what we wanted
The staff were very polite and helpful and the room was very clean.
The room was quite warm, for us anyway.
Good value
Toilet looked clean but had a nasty smell. Pan needed deep cleaning
the bath
road noise
I travel a great deal on business visiting many schools across the country and my choice of stay is always a Premier Inn. It is ideal for what I look for in a business hotel. Clean, comfort, a good nights sleep and the staff have always been extremely helpful.
My only complaint may be that in some Premier Inn's, not all, the television is set too low I have trouble hearing it.
It's clean friendly staff
We booked a quad room .we should have had 2 double beds but we had a double bed plus a single bed for the four of us when we did tell the staff they provided us with another single mattress on the floor. It was a bit awkward for us plus they couldn't give us another room for the four of us .
Convenient, Very Clean, Nice staff Dog and Duck next door. Sheet instead of heavy duvet. Choice of pillows.
Window does not open more that 2 inches. Fan in room only wafted around very hot air, was noisy even on lowest setting so I had to put cotton wool in my ears and the air in the room was so oppressively heavy and humid.I hardly slept at all. It was the worst night I have had in a long time. If you cannot open the windows there should be air conditioning.
Staff friendliness, good location, close to shops and restaurants. Very good value for money.
Ventilation needs to be improved, especially in hot weather.
Very clean, friendly staff, decent pub next door who wrapped up food for us to take to our room as we couldn't leave children sleeping alone.
Bed could have been comfiest, and the room was ridiculously hot even with a fan (the temperature had been above 30 degrees all day). Windows never open enough (true of all Premier Inns) and the room was quite dark even in daylight.
Lovely pillows and fresh towels
Corridor door wasn,t silenced when closing
The usual good standard of comfort you expect from Premier Inns. Rooms are large and quiet, beds comfortable, tea and coffee available and parking free on site. Good full breakfast included made for excellent value.
Low water pressure in our first floor room.
The staff's hospitality is commendable. We arrived early due to the international flight schedule. Although the hotel was fully booked the night before, the front desk staff has checked and worked with the housing keeping manager and arranged a room for us to check-in earlier. It was a tremendous help as we flew in for a training course nearby. Having time to wash up and rest before we went to the class was absolutely helpful. Your staff made a big difference in the overall experience of our stay. Thank you.
Good-sized room, very comfortable bed with extra pillows available. A/C in room. Breakfast was excellent value and good quality.
Help and assistance I received from the receptionist on Tuseday. I suggest Premire use her to train all other staff.
Internet was not free except for first half an hour. I could have that at IBIS for nothing.
Had a quite noisy upstairs neighbour ! But other than that we cudnt complain
Reception staff were very helpful all the time.
Usual premier inn
Poor breakfast
Staff were very friendly and helpful - receptionists advising on transport and travel, to booking taxis and providing general info, cleaners in morning saying hello etc. very clean and comfortable room.
Not a dislike but food and the restaurant was just standard.
Rooms were clean beds were comfy, we had an issue with the TV and the staff resolved it quickly
No signal on TV
Great location for visiting Irchester and other places
Great premier Inn, close to stay near our Grandchildren when we visit always very friendly and clean every visit
Very friendly staff, good clean hotel.
Comfy bed
The food in the linked Beafeaterwas only fair.

Basically the food is the best thing here I do think the restaurant could be cleaner though I really like the hot dogs that is what I think of this resturant.
Posted by UWS Hero on 02/02/2007
Good Sat/Sun morning or afternoon food. Omelettes are great and huge and the Matzoh Ball soup is on point. Gets a little crowded and loud though with screaming kids and you might want to think twice about going if you have an innate fear of strollers. Other than that, service tries its best. Great neighborhood spot.

we are lucky to have Arties on the Upper West Side.

Artie's has awesome fries, and some really good reubens. Delivery is fast, but they love to put you on hold for some reason. The food makes the tedious phone call worthwhile though. (try knish puppies)
Posted by 3rdgenerationManhattanite on 09/23/2006
I was born in Manhatten as were my parents . I have traveled the world. Arties is a wonderful Deli. The food is great, the service incomparable. There is no downside to this place other than it is not open 24 hours. And I'm no tourist.
Posted by Lady PlushBottom on 09/20/2006
The restaurant was clean, the service was variable - our waitress was great to us - but the fella at the door was beyond annoying, the food was all right, but not worth going out of our way for. An ok place to meet people, have something decent, and talk. Not a destination meal.
Posted by Shawnmeister on 09/02/2006
Go for the delish chocolate chip pancakes and consummate New York-style "service." At all costs, though, avoid the "cheese" omelette -- that is, unless you really love whatever second-rate processed quasi-food material is used as a stand-in when Velveeta is unavailable. In terms of delivery and take-out, be sure to check your order before accepting; they "forgot" an item and when I tried to get my rice pudding they treated me like I was trying to scam them! So much for goodwill -- oh wait, that's right, we don't do goodwill here in New York, because we don't have to -- we're New York, and if you don't like it, well, tough.

this time just me and kassey and we met up in the park after she got off work and just ran around. we rode dumbo and looked for characters. we got in line for villains but got cut out so we just hung around until the fireworks. front row right in front of the castle! it was amazing and so beautiful! Then we met Malificent and The shadow man! We literally watched the Parade with Gaston. Not only was the parade so amazing but Gaston was interacting with the parade members and it was hilarious. He said "Great Odins beard" and one point and I'm pretty sure thats when we fell in love. Then we went to go see our other husband, Naveen. OH LAWD HE TWIRLED ME AND CALLED ME BEAUTIFUL. STILL MY FAVORITE MOMENT EVER. LITERALLY IM SMILING RIGHT NOW BECAUSE IM STILL THINKING ABOUT IT. I FELT LIKE A PRINCESS. andtianadidnotexist. at some point we rode mansion and it said 13 minute wait which is always crafty.
on the ferry out of the park, Kassey worked her perfect little kid charm and literally 8 kids were surrounding us and talking to us. this one family with like 6 kids were all dressed up like toy story characters! all of them! it was so cute! Unfortunately, They reason they were there was because their garage had burnt down but they didn't seem to care because they were having the best time! the other family followed us pretty much all the way to the car and kassey held their hands when they crossed the street! it was so precious!

:: Home > General News > Ricky Martin to perform at Life Ball 2014
© Eva Rinaldi Wikipedia
15. 04. 14. - 14:00
15. 04. 14. - 14:00
In a celebrating of joys of life, sensuousness and a tribute to handsomeness, the Life Ball 2014 has announced that the Latino star Ricky Martin, chosen many times over as Sexiest Man Alive, will perform at the event.
For many years Ricky Martin has been active under the auspices of the red ribbon. Speaking about his invitation to perform at the event, he said: "I'm honoured that Life Ball invited me to come to Vienna for such an important cause that truly matters".
One of Life Ball's partners, President Bill Clinton, 42nd President of the United States and founder of the Clinton Health Access Initiative, will deliver keynote remarks, supporting the way towards an AIDS-free generation.
Taking place on May 31, 2014, the 22nd Life Ball is dedicating itself to the topic "The Garden of Earthly Delights" and aims to raise further funds for the fight against HIV/AIDS and to hoist a flag for living in solidarity – is also reflected in 2014's slogan: "Love is a bloom growing anywhere".
The basic inspiration for the Life Ball 2014 was Hieronymus Bosch's "Garden of Earthly Delights" – interpreted as the idea of a diverse society, living together passionately and peacefully, as if the Fall of Man had never happened and people had never been expelled from Paradise.
As well as the performance from Ricky Martin, the Life Ball will also feature the world of male models with a host of ripped Adonises, beguiling beaus, wild boys and sensual charmers, strutting their stuff in the first Male Fashion Show of the Life Ball, presented by L'Uomo Vogue.
Those who want to stroll through the "Garden of earthly Delights" and experience the Life Ball with all its virtues, may still, for a limited time, secure themselves VIP-Tickets for 750 EUR, with seats on the VIP grandstand for the opening show, access to the VIP area of the City Hall Ballroom, culinary delights and all beverages (from champagne to spirits, wine and beer), all inclusive.
Owners of VIP-Tickets may also function as hosts, with their own Lounge Table for EUR 3.000, to which they may invite up to twelve VIP-Ticket holders, for friends, business partners or clients.

Joique Bell | RB | Detroit Lions
Posted: 8/8/2014 3:58pm et
Detroit Lions RB Joique Bell is out of practice Friday, Aug. 8.
Huddle Up: Bell, who missed time in OTAs and mini camp rehabbing an injured knee, was excused Friday for undisclosed personal reasons, and there's a good chance he could suit up for the team's preseason opener Saturday night vs. the Browns.
Posted: 7/30/2014 10:56pm et
Detroit Lions RB Joique Bell (knee) missed organized team activities (OTAs) and minicamp while recovering from a knee injury, but he looked good cutting and accelerating with ease during team portions of practice Wednesday, July 30.
Huddle Up: Bell looks 100 percent and even with Reggie Bush in the same backfield he should see plenty of carries this season, especially near the goal line. Bell currently has an ADP of Round 5, mainly because he's proven to be one of the best all-around backs in the NFL when healthy.
Posted: 6/12/2014 11:15pm et
Detroit Lions RB Joique Bell (knee) did not participate in any of the minicamp practices this week but should be ready for the start of training camp.
Huddle Up: This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on as Bell very well could receive the Lions' share (pun intended) of the RB touches in Motown.
Posted: 5/21/2014 12:30pm et
Detroit Lions RB Joique Bell (knee) did not participate in organized team activities (OTAs) Tuesday, May 20, due to a knee injury.
Huddle Up: Bell is receiving a surprising amount of preseason fantasy love as a member of the Lions' backfield committee, but if he's going to be as nicked up as Reggie Bush tends to be neither will be a particularly reliable fantasy option. Hopefully Bell's OTA absence is merely precautionary, but it's worth keeping an eye on heading into training camp--and fantasy drafts.
Posted: 5/8/2014 7:17pm et
Detroit Lions RB Joique Bell appears to be battling a knee injury based on a photo posted to his Instagram account Wednesday, May 7. Bell was in attendance for the Lions' three-day voluntary minicamp two weeks ago but didn't participate. The caption of the of the photo reads, 'Be (back) in no time.'
Huddle Up: We're still 4 months out from the games and fantasy numbers that count, but it's something to keep an eye on nonetheless with Bell slated for a big role in the Lions' backfield this fall.
Posted: 3/11/2014 4:34pm et
Updating a previous report, the Detroit Lions re-signed RB Joique Bell to a three-year, $9.3 million contract contract Tuesday, March 11, which includes $4.3 million in guaranteed money.
Huddle Up: Bell opened some fantasy eyes last season with his career-high 1,197 yards from scrimmage and 8 TDs complementing starter Reggie Bush, and he'll be a popular No. 2 RB again in drafts this summer.
Posted: 1/31/2014 12:59am et
Detroit Lions restricted free-agent RB Joique Bell said he hopes to sign a long-term deal with the team before the start of free agency. The Lions are expected to at least give him a first- or second-round tender offer.
Huddle Up: Even though Reggie Bush remains the Lions' top RB, most every team is going with the two-RB approach these days and Bell more than proved his worth last season with a career-high 1,197 yards from scrimmage and 8 TDs.
Posted: 11/21/2013 1:50pm et
Detroit Lions RB Joique Bell (Achilles') practiced Thursday, Nov. 21.
Huddle Up: Bell, who was injured late in the Week 11 game against the Steelers, got back to work after sitting out Wednesday. Bell had 12 touches in the game -- his most since starter Reggie Bush missed Week 3 -- but look for that to dip back down this week after much was made of Bush's poor game Sunday.
Posted: 10/16/2013 2:56pm et
Detroit Lions RB Joique Bell (ribs) is participating in practice Wednesday, Oct. 16.
Huddle Up: This is good news after Bell injured his ribs last week. Keep an eye on him as the week progresses.
Posted: 10/13/2013 10:17pm et
Detroit Lions RB Joique Bell (ribs) had X-rays after the Week 6 game against the Cleveland Browns due to an injury to his ribs. The X-rays were negative. He said Sunday, Oct. 13, that he was still in pain in the locker room after the game.
Huddle Up: This could mean some time for Mikel Leshoure, but it doesn't sound too serious for Bell.

One of the most frightening experiences for a football player this fall will come when it dawns on a tiny defensive back or not-so-fast linebacker that he has been assigned to cover 6-foot-4, 230-pound tight end Bryce Dixon of Ventura St. Bonaventure.
"It's mismatch everywhere," a giddy Dixon says.
Taller, bigger and faster than most of those trying to contain him, Dixon is an offensive weapon waiting to be unleashed.
"Athletically, he's a freak," former St. Bonaventure coach Todd Therrien said during the summer.
Dixon has been dunking a basketball since the eighth grade.
"I think he can do anything," Therrien said. "He can run, he can catch, he can jump."
He also is developing as a blocker, which will be important when he plays beyond high school. Combining physicality with a little finesse is what could have him playing the sport for years to come.
"I was voted most outgoing in eighth grade," Dixon said. "I'm an outgoing person. Football is different. You have to have a different mentality."
Basketball, though, was supposed to be his sport.
"I love basketball," he said. "I would never have thought in a million years I'd be playing football."
He came into St. Bonaventure as a 6-foot, 185-pound freshman who wanted to play wide receiver. Therrien eventually told him that tight end was his position as Dixon began to fill out. And now he's heavily recruited by colleges who view him as the perfect candidate to be a versatile receiver and blocker.
"St. Bonny football — they make you tough," he said. "You've got no choice."
With big hands and athleticism, Dixon is an appealing target for quarterback Ricky Town, who can loft the ball high and watch Dixon use his strength and leaping ability to pull it down. And when he makes a catch, his size will allow Dixon to plow through potential tacklers.
"He may be an NFL guy one day," Therrien said. "It's actually fun watching him develop from wanting to be an outside receiver to moving in and blocking. If he keeps developing, he could have a really bright future."
Dixon was the relatively unknown player among the all-stars growing up in the Pacific Youth Football League on a team that went 26-0. Quarterback Brandon Dawkins and receiver Chris Davis (both of Oaks Christian) and defensive back Davonte Nunnery (St. Bonaventure) were the big-name players.
Now Dixon has thrust himself onto the big stage as a player to watch.
"Tight end is a great position to play," he said. "There's not a lot of hybrid tight ends that are fast and big."
St. Bonaventure has one and plans to take advantage of Dixon's skills.

Evening of entertainment to support African wild dog conservation
There's nothing funny about extinction, which is why the Portland chapter of the American Association of Zookeepers is hosting the Oregon Zoo's first comedy night Saturday, Jan. 26, 2013. Local comedians Todd Armstrong and Scoot Herring will headline the fundraiser, which will directly support the conservation of endangered African wild dogs.
Also known as painted dogs, these pack-hunting canines are among the most efficient predators in Africa, bringing down more prey per hunt than lions or cheetahs. They're also extremely sensitive to habitat fragmentation, which brings them into frequent contact with humans and domestic animals. Conflict with livestock and game farmers, accidental deaths by snares and road accidents, and infectious disease all contribute to the drastic population decline of wild dogs, which are currently listed as endangered.
"We have four African wild dog ambassadors here at the Oregon Zoo – Wally, Widdle, Wooster and Topaz," said Oregon Zoo wild dog keeper Beth Carroll-Vasquez. "We hope to reverse the fortunes of their wild counterparts with a great night of entertainment. The proceeds are going to an organization that's had a proven impact on the species' survival."
The Oregon Zoo's comedy night will benefit Zimbabwe-based Painted Dog Conservation, which operates a wild dog rehabilitation center, reintroduction and relocation programs, and a children's conservation camp.
"Most of our fundraising efforts are directed toward the bushcamp for children," Carroll-Vasquez said. "It's important to bring awareness to the youngest generation of Zimbabweans about wild dogs and dispel some of the myths that cause people to persecute these predators. Wild dog numbers are so low that if drastic measures aren't taken soon they'll likely go extinct."
Oregon Zoo comedy night - hosted by Daria from 105.1 The Buzz - will be held from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. in the Cascade Ballroom and will include hors d'oeuvres and adult refreshments, a silent auction, live auction and performances by comedians Todd Armstrong and Scoot Herring.
Todd Armstrong produces a theater showcase entitled "Honest Comedy with..." which features the Nation's Best Standup. In addition to touring, he performs at Portland's Funniest Person, Bridgetown Comedy Festival and the Laughing Devil Comedy Festival in New York. He also now represents Portland for Comedy Central's "Comic to Watch" showcase.
Scoot Herring is the host of podcasts "Rippletron Radio" and "Press Scoot To Continue" and runs a stand up showcase at Hawthorne Hideaway on the second to last Thursday of every month.
The AAZK is a nonprofit, volunteer organization made up of professional zoo keepers and other interested persons dedicated to professional animal care and conservation.

Aquaman may be one of the most well known superheroes, but that doesn't mean he's one of the most popular. Though his fans know he's among the most powerful and fearless characters in comics, the general public has been laughing at the orange and green clad hero since his days on the 1970s Super Friends cartoons. Long derided because his main superpower seems to be his ability to "talk to fish," and due to his perceived uselessness out of the water, Aquaman is more associated with punch lines than punches.

Do you wonder why you are not happy, possibly despite achieving what you have set out to achieve? Do you keep expending effort to get the outcomes you believe will make you happy but somehow leave you wanting more? As a psychologist who has heard the stories of hundreds of men and women over the years, I believe that inherent in every problem lies its solution. Look at the choices you have made and then ask yourself to honestly answer this question What do I really want my life to be about? If your answer is anything short of what you are currently doing, then let me remind you of an important quote by Catherine Ponder (1984:252) in The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity:
Build the mental picture of what you really want, not what someone else wants you to have or what you think it is your duty to have but what you really want. Many people lead miserable lives of failure because they try to please others. Your life is a divine gift for you to live, not for someone else to live for you. Only what you sincerely want can make you happy. Build mental pictures upon that and nothing less
You owe it to yourself to seek the guidance to help you navigate the changes to live the life you truly want to live. If you are feeling anxious or even experience panic attacks, the answer to your dilemma might be nearer to home than you think.

Under $10 Stocks From Renaissance Technologies
Last week I wrote an article on Jim Simons. His quantitative-based hedge fund Renaissance Technologies is on fire: Its Medallion Fund is up more than 50% in the first three quarters of 2007, according to a recent Bloomberg report.
Simons' team of mathematicians and statisticians use complex trading algorithms to help the firm pick cheap and undervalued stocks.
This week, Stockpickr has reviewed the stocks held by Renaissance and extracted the ones that meet the following criteria:
- A stock price under $10.
- Zero debt on the balance sheet.
- Insider buying within the past three to four months.

Mitt Romney offered a partial snapshot of his vast personal fortune late Monday, disclosing income of $21.7 million in 2010 and $20.9 million last year — virtually all of it profits, dividends or interest from investments.
None came from wages, the primary source of income for most Americans. Instead, Romney and his wife, Ann, collected millions in capital gains from a profusion of investments, as well as stock dividends and interest payments.
The couple gave away $7 million in charitable contributions over the past two years, including at least $4.1 million to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Romney's family has for generations been among the Mormon Church's most prominent members.
The Romneys sent somewhat less to Washington over that period, paying an estimated $6.2 million in federal income taxes. According to his 2010 return, Romney paid about $3 million to the IRS, for an effective tax rate of 13.9 percent.
For 2011, Romney estimates that he will pay about $3.2 million, for an effective rate of 15.4 percent. That's in line with his earlier estimates, but sharply lower than the rates paid by President Obama and Romney's closest Republican rival, Newt Gingrich."
The Washington Post, "Mitt Romney's Tax Returns Shed Some Light On His Investment Wealth."
Just wondering how all of those middle- and lower-class Republicans feel about all of this, because, you know, they love rich people soooooo much.

Many growing children can heal from osteochondritis dissecans without surgery. For these children, we offer physical therapy programs designed to keep their muscles strong while protecting their joints. Our therapists teach your child exercises to help keep them strong while they are healing.
Often, it takes between six and 18 months for children to heal. During that time, we offer rehabilitation services in our on-site sports lab.
If your child needs more treatment, we may provide a non-surgical therapy called unloader bracing. In this treatment, your child wears a brace to push the knee into a position that decreases the stresses on the OCD.
If your child needs surgery, we often begin treatment with procedures that use special tools called arthroscopes. Arthroscopes can reach the joint through very small cuts (incisions). Using arthroscopy, doctors insert a tiny camera through the incision. The camera is attached to a video monitor, like a television. The doctor uses the monitor to see inside the knee.
Then doctors punch tiny holes in the bone near the spot where the cartilage and bone have separated. As the bone heals, it forms cells that have the potential to make new cartilage (scar cartilage). These procedures are called arthroscopic drilling and microfracture operations.
Arthroscopy allows doctors to get to the joint without opening it up. This means your child may recover faster, have fewer problems after surgery and have less pain and stiffness during recovery.
In more persistent cases of OCD, doctors can transplant bone or cartilage to your child's knee to help in healing. In this procedure, we either use:

Man Utd boss Ferguson calls for sacrifice and concentration in hunt for the treble
2/28/13 in Soccer | KurtKingsley | 1858 respect
Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson claims his side is on the cusp of finding themselves fighting for a treble. The Scotsman asked his men to be ready for challenges as Manchester United is heading towards a "big year".
The Old Trafford boss is expected to take one step closer towards earning another the Premier League title this Saturday. Manchester United is scheduled to Norwich City at Old Trafford, before heading off to their mid-week Champions League clash against Real Madrid.
Manchester United have all but won the Premier League title, which is why Sir Alex Ferguson is giving more attention towards winning the Champions League and the FA Cup. After a 1-1 draw at Santiago Bernabeu, Manchester United will play in the second leg of the Round of 16 battle against Real Madrid to determine qualification into the Champions League quarterfinals on March 5.
Soon after the Real Madrid clash, Manchester United will start preparation for the FA Cup, where they are scheduled to meet Chelsea. The Champions League winning side will play against Manchester United at Old Trafford on March 10.
A smooth rotation policy is essential to Sir Alex Ferguson's safe passage through these games. Unfortunately for Manchester United, Sir Alex Ferguson has been unable to determine a safe and sound transfer policy. As a matter of fact, Sir Alex Ferguson confessed he has had problems with squad rotation.
"The players sense it could be a big year for them. But at this club, in this situation, anything can happen on the run-in," Sir Alex Ferguson said. "Players can all of a sudden find themselves playing in a final or an important league game because that is the kind of squad I have."
Sir Alex Ferguson revealed he had spoken to players who didn't feature in the 1-1 draw against Real Madrid. The long-term gaffer announced that the players were satisfied with their roles and understood that the main objective was Manchester United's success.
"It is very difficult to rotate the squad at the moment," Sir Alex Ferguson continued. "They all wanted to play against Real Madrid and there were a lot of disappointed players. That was fantastic. It is a measure of their own confidence in themselves.
"But we had a chat. I said 'look, don't think for a minute losing a game for Manchester United is a trivial matter'. It is a serious matter."

Theories concerning ways to end global poverty seem to overwhelm us and often tend to be temporal, unreliable or too complicated to understand. With the help of the YouTube community, people have tried to come up with different ways to tackle what they believe in: Meet Shawn.
Shawn is 28 years old and grew up in Toronto, Canada, before heading to graduate school at Notre Dame. After meeting Dr. Jeffrey Sachs, author of "The End of Poverty," he immediately withdrew from grad school and decided to try to make the world a better place – one meaningful difference at a time.
He headed straight for Bangladesh and decided to embark on a mission called the Uncultured Project.
"It's about inspiring others to believe that we can be the generation that ends extreme poverty," Shawn said. "Hopefully, this project can also show the big multinational organizations that there is a better way to engage people on the issue of global poverty."
This is not a charity, nor is it an organization. The funds are raised through the awareness spread by YouTube and through donations from people who have seen these videos and desire to give out of their own pocket.
"What strikes me as so amazing about Shawn is that he realizes that poverty isn't about them, it's about us," supporter and best-seller author John Greene said.
After starting the Uncultured Project, Shawn heard about the Davos Debate. This debate began with individuals entering their ideas on tackling global issues. The voting ended Friday, Jan. 15, regarding the five finalists, Shawn being one of them.
"The conversation of global poverty is not as black and white as we make it out to be in the classroom and mainstream media," Shawn said.
The first project he set out on because of Facebook video requests to provide the village of Baros with clean drinking water. The contaminated pond water there caused stomach illness and skin disease or required that the people of Baros walk long distances for more potable sources. They simply did not have the means to implement clean drinking water.
The YouTube community voted that they should be provided with a pond-sand filter, which does just what it implies: It filters sand and other contaminated materials out of the water. After raising money from online donations and donations given to Save the Children, a pond-sand filter was provided.
"This is not a charity, it is an experiment in community," Greene said.
Shawn is interested in the individual. He wants people to realize that it is the small things adding up and people taking the initiative to help that will make the greatest impact on global poverty.
"It won't take a radical change like becoming communist or Mother Teresa to make that happen," Shawn said. "Simple changes in our global priorities can have a huge impact around the world."

7:30 pm - Punjab beat KKR by 2 runs
In pic: Kings XI Punjab bowler Piyush Chawla (L) and teammate Mandeep Singh (R) celebrate after taking the wicket of Kolkata Knight Riders batsman Yusuf Pathan (unseen) during the IPL Twenty20 cricket match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Kings XI Punjab at The Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
Praveen Kumar bowled the penultimate over and a good one to restrict the hosts to just four runs off it. Nine required of the final six deliveries now and Harmeet Singh has the ball.
Bowled him! Can you believe it? Harmeet has picked up a crucial wicket here. ten Doeschate gone, clean bowled for 11. This can be a big psychological blow for the hosts.
It's all over for KKR. After a very good 17th and 18th over, they rekindled the hopes of another thrilling victory here. With 13 required off last 12 balls, it looked very much possible till they lost a set batsmen in ten Doeschate in the final over. Bhatia, the new man on strike gave his best but could not win it for the hosts. Das is a disappointed man, he can't believe what just happened. Neither can we, definitely a heartbreak moment for the host team. In the end, Punjab beat KKR by 2 runs margin.

One of Bloomingdale's oldest buildings and one of its newest buildings reportedly will be razed to make room for a new Wawa gas station and food market.
Store owners at the northwest corner of Bloomingdale Avenue and Lithia-Pinecrest Road said they have been told to vacate their stores to make way for a new Wawa.
Attempts to verify the reports with Wawa have been unsuccessful. However, Lee Ann Kennedy with the county's Planning and Growth Management Department verified that three properties at the intersection, including the building housing Consign Dezigns and Lucky Day Emporium, the newly constructed Verizon Wireless store and Outdoor Impressions, have been zoned for a Wawa.
That's also the understanding of Maria Gomes, owner of Consign Dezigns at 3322 Lithia-Pinecrest Rd., Valrico.
Her father, Elvin Hansen, has owned the property where she has her consignment shop since 1953. County records show the 3,372-square-foot building was first constructed in 1947.
"They made my father a fair offer and he's sold the property," said Gomes. "It was a situation where the developer wanted all three properties at the intersection."
The tenants of the building have been told to move out by March. Gomes said she has already stopped taking consignments and has begun marking down the furniture and accessories in her shop for a quick sale. She plans a clearance sale in February.
Lucky Day Emporium owners Brenda Martin, Ginger Waring and Angela Randall are likewise marking down merchandise and are planning a sidewalk sale in February.
Gomes said she doesn't plan to relocate her shop.
"We've been doing this for six years now," said Gomes. "We're looking at this as an opportunity to do something else."
The Lucky Day Emporium owners also have no plans to relocate. However, Tim Weir of Weir's Music has already identified a new location, Gomes said.
"It's been difficult," said Gomes. "I've had customers cry, and that speaks volumes about their loyalty. The support has been amazing."
Construction is currently under way on a Wawa food market and gas station on the south side of Bloomingdale Avenue, just east of U.S. 301.
The popular Pennsylvania-based convenience store offers fresh, built-to-order sandwiches and salads, soups, hot breakfast sandwiches, freshly brewed coffee along with gas services and ATM machines.
The chain has more than 595 convenience stores in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and, most recently, Florida.

I have had the same issue. The bug seems to only show up when I leave an RDP session open and use Apple+Tab to switch windows. I use a program called Witch which allows me to not only switch between programs, but also to switch between the individual windows open from each running application. I have it set to Alt+Tab. This also seems to get the bug going. So far, the only fix for it I've even been close to finding has been to use the Apple+Tab and/or Alt+Tab combinations until the CAPS lock returns to normal.
