After years of working as physical therapists in the Boston area, Joint Ventures co-owners Dan Brownridge and Dave Larson noticed one major aspect missing from in most clinics?a personal relationship between the healer and patient. The duo created Joint Ventures in an effort to bring those strong relationships to their community through advanced integrated healthcare clinics where each patient gets optimal one-on-one time with their physical therapists. At all seven locations, Dan and Dave?s more than 55 practitioners craft detailed treatment plans using the facility's four-lane pools and cardio and weight machines, including therapies ranging from acupuncture to massage, yoga, or personal training. Throughout each patient?s therapy, the team of practitioners keeps their interpersonal skills on point with regular meaningful patient-therapist conversations that end with the pair weaving BFF bracelets from each others? hair.
As natural light streams through the windows, members at Fisique Fitness run on treadmills equipped with their own screens, take to Cybex elliptical machines, and make the rounds on strength-training equipment. In group exercise classes, instructors lead cardio-centric spinning workouts or model mindful breathing during Vinyasa yoga's flow of poses. Dedicated personal trainers take things up a notch, pushing their clients past a plateau or preparing them for the arm-wrestling portion of a corporate job interview. After workouts, members can hit the showers equipped with convenient toiletries or plunk down on one of the lobby's leather armchairs.
In addition to providing chiropractic treatments and physical-therapy sessions, Fisique Fitness partners with Joint Ventures to offer a menu of spa services that includes massage and acupuncture.
Many an aesthetic problem has yielded to Norma Cataldo, the clinical director of Cosmetic Laser Solutions. She has been fixing dermal flaws with noninvasive beams of light for more than 10 years, remedying conditions such as wrinkles, sun spots, cellulite, and spider veins.
At the clinic, she is supported by Dr. Patrick Marasco, a board-certified plastic surgeon. With their combined skills, they are able to treat patients to more invasive procedures in their in-office surgical suite as well as lively harmonies over the intercom system.
For more than 20 years, Propark America has been providing parking spaces at more than 400 locations across the country. Propark's self-serve and full-service airport parking facilities store autos during journeys and allow customers to check the status of their flights with real-time flight-schedule screens. Partnering with hotels, restaurants, and entertainment and sports venues, Propark also offers prompt and courteous valet services—often hiring college track athletes for their dependable, disciplined, and speedy legs—and supplying drivers with safe car storage should football-touchdown dances get entirely out of hand.
Part of Propark's mission includes a commitment to sustainability, as seen through its Canopy Airport Parking site at the Denver International Airport. The energy-efficient location utilizes charging stations for electrical vehicles, LED lighting, a solar-panel farm, and wind turbines. Propark is also a founding partner of the Green Parking Council, which helps convert parking facilities into environmentally-responsible operations, and offers free loaner bikes at participating hotels.
Across Daly Foot Care's three locations, Drs. Albert and Jack Daly draw from more than a decade of experience to treat all types of podiatric issues—from toenail fungus and warts to heel pain and sports injuries. They also design custom orthotic inserts that fully support the unique shape of each foot while walking, exercising, or stomping grapes in a bathtub.
The Genius of Flexibility helps its clients become more limber using the theories of Bob Cooley, an internationally recognized expert on biomechanical flexibility and strength. While rehabilitating after a severe car accident, Cooley discovered the importance of flexibility and its relation to physiological and psychological health. At The Genius of Flexibility, trainers apply his findings to stretch and strengthen bodies in a manner that produces quantifiable changes in posture and range of motion. The zero-pain techniques can lead to myriad benefits, including improved athletic performance, increased vocal range, and the elimination of lower-back pain.

I just stumbled upon this show and since there was nothing else on I decided to watch. I have to say it was pretty good up until the very end when they had to send someone home. I cried right along with the expelled duo! Ezze (sp?) was just too cute and I thought Michael could do much better. Personally Brandy should have gone home in my book.

A motorbike crashed into a car in Gravesend last night on London Road.
The car driver was not hurt and the motorcyclist suffered a fractured following the incident in London Road.
The victim, in his 30s, was later taken to Medway Maritime Hospital as a priority.
A Kent Police spokesman said: "We were called to London Road, Gravesend just before 7.50pm on February 26 to reports of a road traffic collision between a motorcycle and a car.
"Officers attended, along with South East Coast Ambulance Service (SECAMB), and the male motorcyclist was treated for minor injuries before being taken to the Medway Maritime Hospital.
"The road was blocked as a result of the collision but the road was cleared by 9.30pm."
A spokesman for SECAMB said: "We treated a man, believed to be in his 30s for a fractured leg.
"He was taken to Medway Maritime Hospital as a priority and remained fully conscious."

Game Overview
Montas is a first person survival horror adventure that focuses heavily on exploration, immersion, atmosphere, story and interactivity, developed by Organic Humans released on Microsoft Windows.
You wake up at the desk of Joseph Walker, an accountant working for a firm in the city of Montas. Normal life for Joseph has become a distant memory, haunted by nightmares of events that didn't happen, and cursed with unsettling hallucinations wherever he goes. As a result of stress and anxiety, Joseph is now an alcoholic. Paranoia is growing, and the situation worsens when police begin to question locals about recent murders in the area. What is happening to Joseph?... and what is Montas hiding?

Putin Plays the World for Suckers, and Wins
The real meaning of today's arrest of two members of Pussy Riot
Byon February 18, 2014
This morning, Maria Alekhina and Nadezdha Tolokonnikova, two member of the protest group Pussy Riot, were sitting in a McDonalds in Sochi when "around fifty" plainclothes police officers arrested them "for robbery," according to their Twitter feeds. They were out of prison for a little less than two months, just enough for the world to feel slightly better about attending the gangster Olympics. And now the facade from Russia's Potemkin human rights has been abruptly pulled away. If Putin's plan with the Sochi Olympics was to mock democratic values, to show that everyone in the West can be played for suckers, and to demonstrate our hypocrisy to the rest of the world, he has completely succeeded.
The very stupidity of the nature of the arrest is clearly strategic. Pussy Riot were arrested while they were minding their own business, and for no good reason. George Orwell noted in a letter about why he wrote 1984 that the point of the police state is not to demonstrate the state's control over people's bodies but their capacity to shape accepted reality. A police state needs to impose absurdity to show the depths of its power. Putin could easily have waited for Pussy Riot to stage a protest, to cause a disruption, and then arrested them on the basis of "hooliganism" as he did in 2012. Instead, he saw to it that they were arrested for the silliest of reasons, and made sure everybody knew how silly those reasons were.
Of course, this strongman tactic fits into his vision for Russia perfectly. His Russia meets Orwell's conditions of totalitarianism -- "emotional nationalism and a tendency to disbelieve in the existence of objective truth because all the facts have to fit in with the words and prophecies of some infallible fuhrer." The fact that he can arrest whomever he likes without consequence merely plays into his strongman persona which shows him doing judo and hunting wolves and diving for amphorae in the Black Sea and whatever other fantasies he can whip up. The song Pussy Riot were planning on singing was entitled "Putin will teach you to love the motherland."
But the timing of the arrest is really a gesture to the the rest of the world more than it is to people at home. If Putin simply wanted to rearrest Pussy Riot, he could have waited until fifteen minutes after the men's hockey finals. But he chose to rearrest them in the middle of the Games. Putin's "foreign policy" -- such as it is -- mainly acts as an embarrassment to Western values. This reasserts Russia's sense of its own power, even though it is merely the power to disrupt, but it also offers a kind of backhanded justification for his own methods of ruling. Look at these democracies! What a joke they are! Do you think we are any worse than them? The mockery of others fits neatly into the sentimental and religious nationalism he indulges as well--at least mother Russia believes what it believes, unlike America or Europe.
The worst part is, he has won. He has successfully mocked us. The International Olympic Committee, whose spokesmen have approved of the removal of gay activists, has been revealed for what it is: a collection of corrupt scum who pander in our highest ideals. It's not just them either. The only humane response to the abuses in Sochi is for every civilized country who believes in human rights to pick up its athletes and leave. Which country will have the guts to do that? None. Not one. Putin has offered an experiment for the whole world to witness on the nature of Western power: When you put their much vaunted belief in human rights up against a bunch of games, which one do they care about most? The world is watching, but unfortunately everybody already knows the answer.

U.S. man Michael Bradley talks about the fight, determination that prevailed Friday
Mar 23, 2013, 10:38 AM EDT
COMMERCE CITY, Colo. – Was a match that turned into something surreal, something most of the United States men's national team players had never quite dealt with, a serendipitous moment in disguise?
Did Jurgen Klinsmann's team bond a little over a match of meteorological mayhem, one that looked more like a backyard battle of will, and a lot less like a two high-level teams in latter stages of World Cup qualifying?
Veteran U.S. midfielder Michael Bradley, one of the longest serving United States men, echoed something that we wrote about yesterday, about something that had perhaps slipped from this version of the U.S. team. As the player pool has improved gradually and as Klinsmann pushed for greater technical ability and a more comprehensive professional approach, did the team unity and chemistry suffer slightly from neglect?
Whether it did or not, Bradley said the team talked about it before Friday's snowy win over Costa Rica, about making sure that part of the enterprise was alive and kicking.
Said Bradley from beneath DSG Sporting Goods Park late last night:
"We talked about it this week, and we are still talking about it, knowing that the real response would come on the field. As a team on the inside, we talked about it beforehand, not knowing what the game would be like, not knowing how the conditions would be. But the thing that had to be there was the commitment, the mentality, the determination, the willingness for every guy to fight for the guy next to him."
Bradley said they talked a lot this week about how this version has developed, going back to the semifinal qualifying round, when performances were admittedly less than perfect.
"Again, we talked about the things that always have to be there, the fight, the determination, the commitment. … We looked at each other and said, 'Listen, this hasn't been what it needs to be.' So as we move forward, as the big games continue to come, in order for us to be a team that competes at the highest level, that can never, uh, that has to be at the absolute highest level every time we step on the field."
By the way, Bradley was foremost in encouraging his teammates, some of whom were clearly ready to get into the locker room and thaw out a bit immediately upon the final whistle, to circle back and go thank the awesome show of U.S. support. The American Outlaws supporters group and all American supporters went through a lot to show their support Friday at sold-out Dicks Sporting Goods Park – and good on Bradley for making sure the U.S. players thanked them.

Police department's statistics tell story of crime in Derry
The statistics also demonstrate the unpredictability of crime in Derry and the difficulty in predicting who will break the law next, said veteran Derry Police Capt. Vernon Thomas.
Thomas spoke recently on a set of crime statistics from 2002 to 2012 of reported offenses released by the department. The statistics show that crime tends to run in cycles, with drugs serving as a catalyst for other crimes.
Reported drug-related offenses were up from 137 in 2011 to 180 in 2012, representing a 31 percent increase. Five years ago, there were 128 reported offenses compared to 140 in 2002. Statistics are compiled annually and were not available for this year.
Many robberies committed in town involve physical force, or what is known as strong-arm robberies. Drugs are often involved in these crimes, or "drug rips, " he said. For example, someone goes to buy drugs but instead of receiving the drugs, the cash is stolen and the person leaves empty handed. Thomas said he is stunned at how people sometimes react following these crimes.
He added that police usually thank the person for telling them and end up still investigating the crime.
Better technology has improved surveillance cameras, as technology has changed from VCR systems to today's digital systems, Thomas said. Police are able to access better images of suspects and release them to the public more quickly and efficiently.
Some Derry residents saWhen asked if Derry residents were safer today than they were 10 years ago, Thomas said the 56-member department has fewer officers on patrol now than back then.
"There is a whole group of people out there that don't want to bother us with the stuff that goes on in their neighborhood," he said. "Please don't do that. If you see something going wrong, call us when it's happening so that we can help. And that keeps these statistics low."

For a lot of women, the go-to shoe has always been the stiletto heel for its built-in glamour. For me, changing into a pair of heels is all it takes to instantly dress up my outfit.

Charged with DWI 3rd but plead guilty to DWI 2nd. Court suspended license for 3 years but DMV suspended for 5.
I was charged with 3rd DWI in 10 years but plead guilty to 2nd DWI in 5 in court. All of the DWI's occurred within 10 years but due to a clerical error by the magistrates office they were unable to have the 1st DWI certified before my court date. Since I plead guilty to the 2nd the judge notified me I will have my license suspended for 3 years and will be able to obtain a restricted license after the 1st year with an ignition interlock. I've checked with the DMV and on my compliance summary it says I must petition the court for a restricted after 3 years or wait 5 years for a full restoration. Is there any way I can get a hearing to see if the DMV will remove their revocation and follow the courts guidelines? Or am I going to have to wait the 3 years before petitioning for a restricted?
Many people have this type of problem with the DMV. Unfortunately, the DMV tends to disregard the conviction as it is...
I was charged with DWI 2nd offense within 5 years. At my first court date they nolle prossed the charges and wanted to refile them as a 3rd in 10 years. I was told to turn myself in on the Felony warrant within 48 hours. Upon turning myself in I was issued a Misdemeanor summons and released. On the summons it states that 18.2.266.1 did not hold as charge so it could not be used as a predicate offense. Is there anyway the Commonwealth Attorney can ignore the Magistrate's amended charge and refile as a felony again? Can the same same charge be nolle prossed twice? Also, I was only served a summons for the DWI and not the Refusal to take a Breathalyzer charge. Do they have to serve me the summons on the Refusal in order to charge me?
Yes it can be done twice. No they don't have to serve you with the summons. They can wait until you come to court on...
I have hard time financially to hire a lawyer to defend me at court on Dec 21st, 2012. Here is a summary of incident: There was a disagreement over a bar drinks bill between my friends and bar manager. Although I intended to pay the bill from the beginning, my friend and bar manager agreed to call the police. While police was on the way, I gave my cards to the manager and took the entire bill upon myself. Upon arrival of the police in site, bills were already paid off. However, the police arrested my friend who still was questioning the bill. To his rescue, I stepped forward with receipt on my hands, but police arrested me anyways. At detention center, police drew his blood but not mine. How can I best help myself from here on ? Should I contact the police as Magistrate suggested ?
While I don't practice in VA, it sounds as if you have a defensible case. There have got to be some attorneys there who...
We were at a bar in Fairfax County, Virginia. When the bar closed, a bill of $230 was given to me. I asked two other friends to split the bill with me, but they refused stating that some of the purchase in the bill also belonged to others on the table who had already left the bar. The bar manager said he would call police, and I requested not to. My other friend agreed to have police in site. While police were on their way, I went ahead and paid the entire bill with my cards. Upon arrival, police handcuffed other friend right away, and turned to me. I said I had already paid the bill, he handcuffed me anyways. We were taken to a detention center to sober up. They took my friends blood sample, but not mine. I just want the simplest and best solution of this case on court for me.

Preserving rose petals?

Hi crafty geniuses!
So my baby girl scored this valentines day.. A beautiful single pink rose from her dad. It was very sweet.. But I don't think she'll remember lol, so I'd like to 'keep it' for her somehow. I think it's too late for me to 'press' the rose, but is there anything I can do to save the petals.. Particularly the colour.
Thanks in advance!
Posted 22 February 2013 - 10:29 PM
i often get 2 wax paper sheets put waxed sides together with petals btween them then use iron on low heat to press together - USE PILLOWCASE betwwen iron and paper
Then you have nice paper with the petals in it - i have done this as scrapbooking page with the first flower my husband gave me i just cut the paper before doign the ironing part to the size i want so i could space the petals nicely
Posted 23 February 2013 - 10:02 PM
Thanks for that Tobias'smum! Wax paper added to our shopping list :-)
How do you space the rose petals? .. Do you take each petal and scatter it across the paper, or did you do it in columns and then press with the iron?
Posted 27 February 2013 - 05:14 PM
I've done as Tobias' Mum has done too.. I'm a scatterer!
Just make sure they aren't up too close to the edge of the sheet so that they get completely sealed in.
For anyone else reading this it makes for a very cheap, very pretty way to 'frost' a window too (I had one that looked out onto next door's brick wall and the step where they put their garbage bins!)

Sunday - October 21, 2007
From: Waco, TX
Region: Southwest
Topic: Plant Identification
Title: Identifying plant
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:What plant is usually found growing in low-lying freshwater marshy places with a single, straight-stemmed plant that grows to about one-to-two feet in height. The branches and leaves are sparse with prickly spines from the ground upwards. The blooms are light blue star-shaped flowers. The root is about one-fourth the height of the plant and is nearly white in color, used in processing a cough remedy.
ANSWER:Mr. Smarty Plants loves to identify plants; however, doing so from a description is very difficult. Hopefully, if we have a picture and perhaps the locality of the plant, we can figure it out. For instructions on how to submit photographs, please visit the Ask Mr. Smarty Plants page and read about "Plant Identification" in the lower right corner.

I'm a Mac OS X user. I've played chess as a child, and have recently taken it back up as an adult. I'm probably a "low-medium" player — Chess.com rates me as 1080 more or less.
With that as background, I've recently started trying to formally "study" chess. I've bought some books, and have found it terribly tedious — I have to have a chess board next to me (on the iPad), and it's very time consuming to interpret the notation, setup the positions, and follow the sequences. Obviously it's "possible"; just very time inefficient.
It would seem to me that an digital learning environment, in which you have the text alongside an interactive board, with moves hot-linked to actual moves on the board would be a far more efficient environment for learning.
Does anyone know if such learning tools exist, on either Mac OS X or the iPad/iPhone?
Well, the Chess Mentor feature serves that purpose pretty well.
Ok, first download the chess.com app. A new version will be coming out soon and it looks like some cool new things will be in it.
As far as an app with a book and interactive board in it you really have only two choices. E+chess and Smartchess! are both nice apps. I have them both and like them both, the books for purchase in the app / iTunes are priced comparable in price to the same as the ebook version and slightly cheaper than a "real book".
Other learning apps that you might want to check out are: Chessimo HD, tactics trainer, chess camp ( Easier checkmates), shredder (has puzzles in it also), learn chess ( has alot of puzzles), bc take (it's like chess mazes where you constantly move one of your pieces and have to capture an opponents piece on every move)
Hi Bronco70, thanks a lot. I'll check out all those resources.
Well, it seems like Smartchess! hasn't been updated for the retina display of the iPad 3. E+Chess seems pretty nice. And I'm enjoying Chessimo.
Yeah, Smartchess! just posted on their website that there are issues with the app on ipad3 with an update to fix it coming next month. If you email him and tell him the issues he may give you a book title discounted or free. He has in the past .
Good luck.
If you are on ipad 3 , i highly recommend tchess pro and Hiarcs 13. Also chessbase onlne.
My vote for e+chess as well. Bought smartchess app just to try the system, but I can't get the boar to show fully, must be something to do with new iPad display - in any case, it's intolerable.

Do you have an ipad3? The smartchess web site says it has issues with ipad3
premoves at live chess and the ability to use chess mentor via iPad app.
Yes, that would be incredable.
Smartchess has been working on ipad display issue since the spring, working on a completely new format. Oh well
Mr. Silman responded to an email I sent asking him if he would have any more books on the e+chess app. He said the 4th edition of Reassess Your Chess would hopefully come out in 4-6 months
I received the following reply yesterday concerning the SmartChess app's compatibility with the new iPad. Hopefully we'll see the update soon.
"Hi Michael,It is fixed. We are about to submit the new version to Apple. You will be pleased with it.
Andres D. HortillosaPresidentSmart Learning, Inc.5444 Shoreview AveMinneapolis, MN 55417"
Thanks for the info. Looking forward to see the updated app.
install windows 7 buy chessbase 11 with mega database.
This smartchess is quite a joke right now, it has already been already four weeks when user moznmar posted that the developer was about to submit that new version (with new ipad support I suppose). Unfortunately, one month feels like ages in digital era and customers will just choose apps they can trust they will be updated actively. I'm still looking forward to see smartchess developing, but so far it does not look too good. E+chess looks quite nice and already bought Silman's endgame course, although I feel there could be room for further developement, interface-wise.
I received an email from Smartchess! app developer and their app just had an update. It now works for the ipad 3 and it has a more polished look to it with new boards and pieces to choose from (just make sure you select a board or the app will not work once you come to the first diagram).
It seems like a nice update, lets hope they get some more books available

Swim with the sharks at Point Defiance Aquariumon October 10, 2013 @ 5:08 pm (Updated: 8:38 am - 10/11/13 )
More Photos
See all photos
For the first time ever, visitors will come eye to eye with 17 sharks in a 240,000 gallon aquarium.
These aren't little fish, but great, big beasts with sharp teeth. In the tank are a 450-pound lemon shark, a sandbar shark, a school of nurse sharks, and a sand tiger shark, among others.
There are two different options for divers:
-Cage Dive: For non-certified divers ages 8 and up. No prior diving experience is necessary. Price: $50 for zoo members and $65 for non-members.
-Scuba Dive: For certified scuba divers ages 15 and up. Price: $160 for zoo members and $175 for non-members. Reservations are required.
Divers slip on a dry suit over their clothes and plunge into the warm, 75 degrees, salt water for about 20 minutes. The tank is about 13 feet deep.
"The main goal of this program is to publicize the plight of sharks worldwide and to inspire people right here in Puget Sound to help protect and conserve marine life for future generations," said zoo deputy director John Houck in a news release. "We want our visitors to leave with a pledge to take action that will help save sharks."
Houck said 38 million sharks are killed each year for their fins and the zoo wants visitors to urge Congress to pass laws protecting sharks.

Kaminsky helps Wisconsin beat Oral Roberts 76-67
Submitted: 11/23/2013
Story By Associated Press
- Frank Kaminsky scored 21 points to lead five Wisconsin players in double figures, helping the 12th-ranked Badgers hold off Oral Roberts 76-67 on Saturday night.
Josh Gasser added 15 points for Wisconsin (6-0), and Ben Brust finished with 12. Traevon Jackson scored 11 and Sam Dekker had 10.
Shawn Glover led Oral Roberts (2-3) with 24 points.
Oral Roberts trailed the entire game, but pulled within four points twice in the final minutes, including 66-62 after Glover converted a three-point play.
But the Golden Eagles could not get over the hump as Wisconsin shot 8 of 8 from the foul line the rest of the way.
The Badgers were shooting a Big Ten-best 48.5 percent from 3-point range coming into the game, but struggled from behind the arc in this one. Playing their third game in five days, they hit just 7 of 23 attempts.
Wisconsin made up for the long-range deficit by grabbing 12 offensive rebounds and scoring 15 second-chance points. The work in the lane _ where the Badgers scored 34 points _ helped them shoot 47 percent from the floor for the game.
Meanwhile, Oral Roberts shot 55 percent, but hurt itself with 14 turnovers that Wisconsin turned into 20 points.
The Golden Eagles played without leading scorer Obi Emegano. The guard, who averages 19 points a game, injured his knee in a loss to Saint Louis on Thursday.
Missing Emegano, Oral Roberts looked rattled early.
Wisconsin scored the first nine points of the game and led by as many as 17 in the first half. The Badgers seemed poised to pull away in a romp up 35-19 with a little more than 5 minutes to go in the half.
But Oral Roberts reeled off a 9-0 run over the next four minutes. Gasser finally hit a layup for the Badgers to put them up 37-28 at half.
The game is part of the Cancun Challenge. The Badgers will next play Saint Louis as part of the tournament on Tuesday.

Gun deer hunt brings business to the Northwoods, some worry new rules could affect tourism
Submitted: 10/22/2014
Play Video
- Some Northwoods businesses worry that new deer hunt regulations could hurt tourism.
The gun deer hunt brings traffic to area businesses after the summer is over.
But new rules could keep people from traveling up north.
"Several guests have called and some have cancelled because they say that there's not going to be any doe tags being issued in this area," says Hiawatha Lodge owner Scott Frickson.
You can't get an antlerless deer tag in Wisconsin north of Marathon County.
That could lead to less hunting tourism in the Northwoods.
