All these kids are "beasts" in their respective orbits around the country, but here they get to test their mettle against other elite players. You learn the back-story on eight specific players, some of whom - like Kevin Love and Michael Beasley - have already jumped to the NBA after a one-year college "career." You also get some perspective on Rucker Park and its iconic status in American basketball.
The movie is not all hype job, though. It touches upon some darker issues in the scholastic hoop frenzy, such as:
* Elite players are scrutinized closely and often can't live just a normal life
* Some prep rating services are glorified cut and paste jobs, more concerned with generating subscription revenue than anything else
* Sneaker companies drilling down as far as promising 5th, 6th and 7th graders to "brand" their shoes and build brand loyalty
* College coaches who text players they have never met three times a day to say, "I love you and can't wait for you to come play here ..."
* The lack of loyalty among some players; to wit, in high school, Michael Beasley attended four different schools in four years.
* Concerns about whether perfecting highlight dunks on Sports Center may eclipse emphasis on other aspects of the game . (I'm not saying team defense is dead, but the final score of the exhibition game is something like 131-128 - judge for yourself.)
If you like hip-hop music and rap, you will also enjoy this movie!
The visual effects made the movie fresh and not monotonous. It was able to hold my attention and kept me wanting more. I feel like the visuals mixed with the music really added a lot to the documentary and made it even more entertaining. I absolutely loved the music all throughout the film.

The number of copies of carcinogenic HPV18 relative to cellular DNA is not associated with the likelihood of progression to advanced precancerous lesions of the cervix, according to researchers from the University of Washington in Seattle.
The team used data from 303 survey participants drawn from the Atypical Squamous Cells of Undetermined Significance and Low-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion Triage Study. The team was looking at HPV18, because that form as well as HPV16 are most frequently associated with cervical cancer. Additionally previous studies showed that the number of HPV16 copies per cell correlated with an increased risk of progression to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or 3 (CIN2-3).
The team compared the number of copies of HPV18 DNA relative to cellular DNA at baseline with a woman's risk of progressing to CIN2-3. During the two-year study period, 92 women were diagnosed with CIN2-3. Among women with a cytologic diagnosis of low- or high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions at enrollment, HPV18 DNA level was lower in women with CIN2-3 than those without CIN2-3.
"In summary, our data indicated that HPV18 DNA levels were highest among women with evidence of a benign squamous intraepithelial lesion, intermediate among those with CIN2-3, and lowest among those with normal cytological findings. Thus, testing for high levels of HPV18 DNA does not appear to be clinically useful," note the authors of the study, led by Long Fu Xi, M.D, Ph.D.
The article appears in the January 27 online issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.

A U.S. appeals court on Wednesday ordered Google Inc (GOOG.O) to remove from its YouTube video-sharing website an anti-Islamic film that had sparked protests across the Muslim world.
By a 2-1 vote, a panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Google's assertion that the removal of the film "Innocence of Muslims" amounted to a prior restraint of speech that violated the U.S. Constitution.
The plaintiff, Cindy Lee Garcia, had objected to the film after learning that it incorporated a clip she had made for a different movie, which had been partially dubbed and in which she appeared to be asking: "Is your Mohammed a child molester?"
In a statement, Google said: "We strongly disagree with this ruling and will fight it."
Cris Armenta, a lawyer for Garcia, said she is delighted with the decision.
"Ordering YouTube and Google to take down the film was the right thing to do," Armenta said in an email. "The propaganda film differs so radically from anything that Ms. Garcia could have imagined when the director told her that she was being cast in the innocent adventure film."
The controversial film, billed as a film trailer, depicted the Prophet Mohammed as a fool and a sexual deviant. It sparked a torrent of anti-American unrest among Muslims in Egypt, Libya and other countries in 2012.
That outbreak coincided with an attack on U.S. diplomatic facilities in Benghazi that killed four Americans, including the U.S. ambassador to Libya. U.S. and other foreign embassies were also stormed in the Middle East, Asia and Africa.
For many Muslims, any depiction of the prophet is considered blasphemous.
Google had refused to remove the film from YouTube, despite pressure from the White House and others, though it blocked the trailer in Egypt, Libya and certain other countries.
In court filings, Google argued that Garcia appeared in the film for five seconds, and that while she might have legal claims against the director, she should not win a copyright lawsuit against Google.
The film has now become an important part of public debate, Google argued, and should not be taken down.
"Our laws permit even the vilest criticisms of governments, political leaders, and religious figures as legitimate exercises in free speech," the company wrote.
But Garcia argued that her performance within the film was independently copyrightable and that she retained an interest in that copyright.
A lower court had refused her request that Google remove the film from YouTube. In Wednesday's decision, however, 9th Circuit Chief Judge Alex Kozinski said Garcia was likely to prevail on her copyright claim, and having already faced "serious threats against her life," faced irreparable harm absent an injunction.
He called it a rare and troubling case, given how Garcia had been duped. "It's disappointing, though perhaps not surprising, that Garcia needed to sue in order to protect herself and her rights," he wrote.
The case is Garcia vs. Google Inc et al., 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 12-57302.

BOULDER, Colo. -- The Colorado Buffaloes gathered at the
middle of the practice field, hooting and hollering and giving each
other high-fives. A brief meeting with the coach followed, then the
team huddled together, let out a cheer and walked away smiling and
patting each other on the back.
After a tumultuous offseason that nearly cost coach Gary Barnett
his job and put the program's recruiting practices into question,
the Buffaloes returned to practice for the first time on Monday.
And boy, was it good to be back.
"It was a good practice, a good, fun, spirited practice as you
would expect," Barnett said. "I think everybody is just really
happy to get on the field and get back to what we really enjoy
doing. And that includes me."
Colorado went through an offseason unlike any other anywhere
Nine women claimed they were sexually assaulted by football
players or recruits since 1997. Three of those sued the university,
claiming they were raped at an off-campus party in 2001.
An investigative panel was formed to determine whether sex and
alcohol were used as recruiting tools. Barnett was suspended for
three months for insensitive comments he made about former kicker
Katie Hnida, who said she was raped by a teammate in 2000.
So instead of concentrating on football, Colorado's players
spent the offseason defending themselves, their program and their
university. Getting back to the practice field after all of that
was a huge relief.
"We were just excited to get out on the field and get our
helmets back on," Buffaloes quarterback Joel Klatt said. "It's a
great feeling to be out here and we're excited to move forward with
No one was more excited than Barnett.
He spent most of the offseason away from his program and
players, devoting most of his time to answering questions from
reporters, an investigative panel and a grand jury.
Barnett was suspended in February and didn't get reinstated
until after Colorado had completed its spring drills under interim
coach Brian Cabral.
So with a whistle around his neck and his trademark visor pulled
down low, Barnett was all smiles as he walked off the practice
"When this is your life, the chance to get back out there and
be with your guys is what it's all about for me," Barnett said.
It was especially gratifying considering Barnett didn't know if
he would be allowed to return.
An independent commission found that Barnett was resistant to
change and should have had better control of his program. It wasn't
clear if he'd be brought back until just a few days before he was
reinstated in May.
"Did I have doubts? There were times when I wondered how things
were going to go -- the decision wasn't in my hands," he said.
"But I always pictured myself back out here."
So did the players.
As Barnett sat in his office responding to e-mails and letters
from supporters, Colorado's players never wavered in their support
of him. They went through spring drills under Cabral, but always
expected it would be Barnett calling the shots once summer camp
So once that first whistle blew, it was as if nothing ever
"It was just like any other first day of practice," Klatt
said. "Everyone's happy to be out here. It was a long summer and
we're glad it's over."

Before we knew him as Frodo Baggins in Peter Jackson's blockbuster Lord of the Rings film trilogy, Elijah Wood was a child actor. In a recent interview with Britain's Sunday Times, Wood spoke out on sexual abuse of young actors in Hollywood, and says "a lot of vipers" roam the upper echelons of the entertainment biz, preying on naïvete and eagerness for fame.
"Clearly something major was going on in Hollywood. It was all organized. There are a lot of vipers in this industry, people who only have their own interests in mind," he told the Times.
"There is darkness in the underbelly. What bums me about these situations is that the victims can't speak as loudly as the people in power. That's the tragedy of attempting to reveal what is happening to innocent people: they can be squashed, but their lives have been irreparably damaged."
"If you're innocent, you have very little knowledge of the world and you want to succeed," he added. "People with parasitic interests will see you as their prey. What upsets me about these situations is that the victims can't speak as loudly as the people in power."
Wood is now 35. As a child, he performed with fellow child star alongside Macaulay Culkin in "The Good Son," and had a part in the "Flipper" remake. He said his mother, Debra, protected him from predators back then, and he "never went to parties where that kind of thing was going on."

Read the rest
July 23rd
Dear Mel,
I've just received the costume sketches. I'll tell you everything I think, without censoring, and you take from my opinion what you like.
I assume that the designer took his impressions from the book and didn't know, naturally, who would be playing Willy. And I think, for a character in general, they're lovely sketches.
I love the main thing — the velvet jacket — and I mean to show by my sketch the exact same color. But I've added two large pockets to take away from the svelt, feminine line. (Also in case of a few props.)
I also think the vest is both appropriate and lovely.
And I love the same white, flowing shirt and the white gloves. Also the lighter colored inner silk lining of the jacket.
What I don't like is the precise pin pointing in place and time as this costume does.
I don't think of Willy as an eccentric who holds on to his 1912 Dandy's Sunday suit and wears it in 1970, but rather as just an eccentric — where there's no telling what he'll do or where he ever found his get-up — except that it strangely fits him: Part of this world, part of another. A vain man who knows colors that suit him, yet, with all the oddity, has strangely good taste.
I like how cartoony Spidey looks but he's got nothing on his late-1970s predecessor seen below.
In Ridley Scott's classic 1979 science fiction/horror film Alien, the terrifying creature was played by a 6'10" Nigerian named Bolaiji Badejo. It was Badejo's only film credit. In fact Badejo, who died of sickle cell disease in 1992 at age 39, wasn't even an actor. He was studying graphic arts in London when casting agent Peter Ardram spotted him in a pub. From CNN:
"As soon as I walked in Ridley Scott knew he'd found the right person," Badejo said in a rare interview for the French film magazine, Cinefantastique, in 1979...
"I could barely see what was going on around me," Badejo recalled in 1979, "except when I was in a stationary position, while they were filming. Then there were a few holes I could look through... It was terribly hot... I could only have it on for about 15 or 20 minutes at a time. When I took it off, my head would be soaked."
Bolaji Badejo: The Nigerian giant who played 'Alien' (CNN)
Below, Badejo's surreal screen test that I've previously posted:
When Vanity Fair asked a bunch of celebrities at the Oscars to "swap faces with Leo DeCaprio" with the MSQRD app, their responses were pretty funny. Larry David's was very Larry David. "No."
Rooney Mara has found her guilt regarding her lily-white turn as Tiger Lily in the derided and disastrous Peter Pan prequel "Pan," which set fire to about $200m all told.
Even before Joe Wright's live-action retelling of Peter Pan hit theaters, the production came under fire for casting Rooney Mara as the Native American Tiger Lily, and thousands signed a petition objecting to Mara's casting. Now, less than a week before the Academy Awards and in the middle of the #OscarsSoWhite controversy, Mara has opened up about her own involvement in the whitewashing debate in a new interview with The Telegraph.
"I really hate, hate, hate that I am on that side of the whitewashing conversation," she told The Telegraph. "I really do. I don't ever want to be on that side of it again. I can understand why people were upset and frustrated."
Tell me, o internet, how Mara came to hate, hate, hate, hate being on the wrong side of the conversation, but only after the movie became a career-blighting bomb. Read the rest
How does TMZ get the videos and photos that celebrities want to hide? Because like any good intelligence operation, their spies aren't above paying for intelligence.

Entertainment Weekly interviewed Cheadle:

The film jumps around, but the main thread of the plot is set around 1979. Why did you chose to focus on that time period? Just the fact that he wasn't playing. The fact that he hadn't played for five years, up to that point, and in a way, was either chomping at the bit to figure out what to say again, if to say again, or he was going down towards death very quickly. He was standing on that knife's edge at that point, and I don't think he even know which way it was gonna go. So for us, when we got to the period in all the research about how Miles didn't play for five years, we were like, "What?" [Laughs] That was the part that was the most interesting from a human being standpoint to me. Musically and what he did with his art form was amazing to me all the time, for the most part. But for me, as a human and an artist and someone who's a creative person, what happens when you just stop for five years? That's why we picked that moment to sort of be the departure point: him on the verge of talking again, basically.
From David Michalek's "Portraits in Dramatic Time." RIP, Alan Rickman.
The new trailer for High-Rise, director Ben Wheatley's film based on the 1975 novel by one of my all-time favorite writers JG Ballard, looks absolutely fantastic. And dig the use of Tangerine Dream's track "Love on a Real Train" (famously first heard in Risky Business)! I can't wait to see this.
Punk icon Jello Biafra's acting showreel, used as a resume-of-sorts in the TV/movie business, features his moments in Portlandia, Death and Taxes, Tapeheads, The Hipster Games, and others. (via Dangerous Minds)
"Alice Through the Looking Glass" is director James Bobin's sequel to Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" (2010). Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway, Mia Wasikowska, Helena Bonham Carte, Alan Rickman, Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen, and Timothy Spall are once again down the K hole, I mean the rabbit hole.
The only thing that Disney seems certain about regarding any future Indiana Jones films is they don't plan on subbing in another actor as Indy.
"There are a lot of rumours," the franchise's producer Frank Marshall says. "We haven't even sat down to talk about Indy yet… at some point we'll sit down. But there's a bunch of people who could probably take the baton. … We're not doing the Bond thing where we're going to call somebody else Indiana Jones … we have to figure this out."
Sorry, Chris Pratt. Mr. Ford, please put down the blaster and grab the bullwhip.

Seven Springs is close to my home, and I enjoy it very much. I know sometimes conditions are going to be less than perfect, but I think they do what they can to make them the best that they can. The snow reports that the resort emails to me are not very accurate, but that's what looking out my window and reading real reports are for. The food has been better in the past, and prices are quite high for what you get, especially for most of the people in Western PA. I am alarmed that the son of the owner would stoop to tell customers to "suck it" publicly. I hope that this isn't really the real person. No truly sane business owner would tell his bread and butter to "suck it." Mildly disturbing, union busting and other things are a little more disturbing to me, but it's their business. I still go there, and enjoy it a lot. I am not a very wealthy person, but I still can afford a season pass. That part isn't bad at all. I hope that Junior deletes those posts. Not very becoming of a businessman at all. I hope that I wouldn't be treated like that if I met him in person at his resort. I would be a frightened woman and not comfortable being there.

Lawmakers may very well reach a deal on the "fiscal cliff" that includes a hike in the Medicare eligibility age - a concession to those on the right who seem determined to achieve very deep entitlement cuts, even if they take benefits away from vulnerable seniors. One argument for raising the eligibility age is that seniors who lose benefits can get insurance through Medicaid or the Obamacare exchanges.

text: This Article provides a selection process for foreign persuasive authority within the context of comparative analysis by combining the results of an historical analysis of the use of foreign authority with modern trends in social sciences and legal scholarship. It argues that the ethos of comparative law is one of informed nation selection, and that its proponents should not shy away from this reality but tackle it head on. It describes an approach to such selection process, one which combines historical fact, normative desirability, and contemporary understanding of judicial interpretative techniques, and shows how courts can integrate this approach within their opinions when they deem comparative analysis to be appropriate.

The present invention relates to apparatuses for therapeutic exercises, and more particularly to apparatuses for performing isometric exercises intended to counter atrophy, e.g. of the thigh muscles, during prolonged immobilization due, for example, to an accident or to rheumatic disease.
One of the presently known methods of performing isometric exercises consists in manually moving the limb to be treated, while performing thrusts or counter thrusts in order to force the muscles of the limb to work and thus help them return to their initial prior shape and quality. This method can give good results, however it nevertheless suffers from the major drawback of requiring action by a practitioner, e.g. a physiotherapist, whose professional qualifications are not essential for performing this work.
Devices have therefore been made which, to some extent, replace the practitioner, thereby releasing the practitioner for other tasks which are better adapted to professional competence.
The apparatus described in the document constituted by German patent application filed Oct. 4, 1980 and published under the number 3 037 619 was made for this purpose.
That apparatus comprises a carriage mounted on slideways, means for applying reaction forces to the carriage, e.g. a weight on which gravity may act, and a leg-holding trough pivotally mounted at one end about an axis perpendicular to the direction of carriage displacement. In theory, this device gives good results. However, as exercises are performed thereon, various parts constituting the apparatus rapidly take on slack unless they are of the very highest mechanical quality, and it can then happen that the trough does not move in a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the patient's knee joint. As a result, when the patient exerts leg force, the trough may be deflected from said plane, thereby giving rise to twisting which is dangerous for the knee. Thus, while seeking to treat one trauma, it is possible to create others which are just as bad for the patient.
In order to avoid these drawbacks, apparatuses have been made using mechanical components of very high quality and great reliability. However, this technique causes the price of the apparatus to be so high as to make it inaccessible for many practitioners.
Apparatuses have also been made for mitigating the two above-mentioned drawbacks, for example apparatuses as described in published French patent applications numbers 2 085 118 and 2 454 798. These apparatuses are essentially constituted by a trough comprising two parts which are hinged to each other at respective ones of their ends, with their other ends being pivotally mounted either directly or indirectly to a rigid base. This design limits unwanted trough movement of the type mentioned above, but the cost price of the device is not much less since the trough now includes two elements, one for holding the lower leg and the other for holding the thigh, and also, since it requires a rigid base which is relatively long.
The object of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for therapeutic exercise which can be made using a small number of standard-quality components so as to ensure a low cost price, together with weight and bulk that are considerably less than those of prior art devices, while still providing the same high quality of care.
More precisely, the present invention provides a therapeutic exercise apparatus for the lower limb of a patient, i.e. for the lower leg and the thigh, the apparatus comprising a base, a carriage, means for mounting said carriage displaceable along a given direction relative to said base, means for exerting a reaction force against said displacement, a trough for holding the lower leg of the patient substantially between the foot and the knee of said lower limb, and means for pivotally mounting one end of said trough to said carriage, said apparatus including a bracket for holding a first rotary shaft about a first axis perpendicular to the displacement direction of said carriage, said first shaft being situated in the half-space delimited by said trough and opposite to the half-space containing said base, and at least one retaining link having a first end rotatably mounted on said first shaft and having its second end rotatably mounted on said trough by bearing means about a second axis of rotation which is parallel to the first axis of rotation.
An embodiment of the invention is described by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of therapeutic exercise apparatus in accordance with the invention; and
FIGS. 2 and 3 are a diagrammatic side view and a diagrammatic end view, respectively, showing the FIG. 1 embodiment and serving to explain the operation and the advantages of the apparatus.
FIGS. 1 to 3 show the same embodiment of apparatus in accordance with the invention. Consequently, the same references are used therein to designate the same items regardless of the figures in which the items appear and regardless of whther the items are shown in simplified form or representationally.
The therapeutic exercise apparatus for the lower limb of a patient shown in the drawing comprises a base 1 and a carriage 2 associated with the base by means 3 in such a manner as to enable the carriage to move relative to the base in a given direction 4. The apparatus also includes means 5 for exerting a reaction force against said displacement. The direction of said reaction force is a function of the way in which the therapeutic exercise needs to be performed.
The apparatus also includes a trough 6 for holding the lower leg 7 of the patient, substantially between the foot 8 and the knee 9. It also includes means for pivoting the end 10 of the trough to the carriage 2.
According to a characteristic of the invention, the apparatus includes a bracket 11 supporting a first rotary shaft 12 lying along a first axis 13 perpendicular to the direction 4 of carriage displacement. The shaft 12 is situated in the half-space 14 delimited by the trough 6 and opposite to the half-base 15 containing the base 1. The apparatus also includes at least one link 16 having a first end 17 mounted on the shaft 12 and having its second end 18 pivotally mounted to the trough 6 by bearing means 19 about a second axis of rotation 20, said axis 20 being parallel to the above-defined first axis 13.
In a preferred embodiment, the bearing means 19 are constituted, for example, by a plurality of bearings 30 defining a plurality of positions on the trough 6 for the second axis of rotation 20. The set of bearings 30 is constituted by a rack 31 pivotally mounted on the trough 6 and defining a plurality of notches 32, 33, . . . , suitable for receiving a second shaft 34 fixed to the end 18 of the link, and for enabling it to rotate about the axis 20.
The support bracket 11 advantageously comprises a first strut 21 pivotally mounted to a second strut 22 about the first axis of rotation 13, and advantageously on the rotary shaft 12. The end 23 of the first strut 21 which is furthest from its end 24 that is pivotally mounted to the second strut 22 is pivotally mounted about a third axis 25 parallel to the first and second axes 13 and 20, said third axis being connected to the base 1. Further, the end 26 of the second strut 22 opposite to its end 27 that is pivotally mounted to the first strut 21, is pivotally mounted about a fourth axis 28 which is parallel to the axes 13, 12, and 25, and which is connected to the carriage.
As described above, the carriage 2 is mounted to move along the direction 4 relative to the base. The means enabling such displacement comprise a slideways 35 fixed to the base 1 and extending along the direction 4, and a ring 36 which is slidably mounted on the slideway, with the carriage 2 being fixed to said ring.
In the embodiment shown, the means 5 for exerting a reaction force comprise a spring 37 extending under compression between a point 38 on the base 1 and a point 39 on the ring 36. In order to allow patients to perform exercises adapted to their needs, the apparatus includes means 40 for adjusting the compression of the spring. These means are constituted, for example, by a washer 41 which is slidably mounted on the slideway 35, and a nut 42 which co-operates with a threaded portion of the slideway. By rotating the nut in one direction or the other, the patient can increase or reduce the length of the spring between the two points 38 and 39.
The above-mentioned trough 6 comprises, for example, a riser 43 fixed to the carriage, at least one leg-receiving cradle 44, and adjustable means 45 for mounting the cradle on the riser 43, and for adjusting its position along said riser.
One of the qualities of the structure of the apparatus as described above is to confer a high degree of rigidity to the apparatus in spite of the fact that most of its components are pivotally mounted relative to each other.
To this end, the apparatus includes two pairs of first and second struts and two links, with the struts and the links being substantially symmetrical about a plane 50 passing through the slideway 35 and extending perpendicularly to the first rotary shaft 12, with the two links 16 being interconnected on a common shaft 34. This configuration can clearly be seen in FIG. 3.
Since the various struts and links are in pairs, they form quadrilaterals which are pivoted, for the most part, at their vertices, thereby making it possible, in known manner, to maintain a degree of rigidity in a plane, and in particular the plane 50, even after the device has been used repetitively on numerous occasions, and even if the axes of rotation are embodied by components of ordinary manufacturing quality for the purpose of reducing the total cost price of the apparatus.
The short length of the trough 6 as described above makes it possible for the base 1 to be advantageously constituted in two parts 51 and 52. A first part 51 is made of a rigid material, e.g. in the form of a tubular metal frame supporting the third axis 25 and the means 3 for mounting the carriage movable along the direction 4. The second part 52 is made of flexible material and is fixed to the first part 51, for example by means of a hinge 53 or the like, and its length is such as to enable a patient 54 to sit thereon while one of the patient's legs 7 is engaged in the trough 6.
The above-described apparatus is used as follows, for example when exercising a thigh muscle. While the patient is sitting on the second flexible part 52 of the base 1, the operation begins by placing the leg 7 in the cradles 44 and by securing it therein firmly, for example by means of straps 60.
In order to rebuild the thigh muscles, the patient extends the lower leg against the force exerted by the spring which is previously compression by means of the knurled nut 42 to a suitable value as determined by the practitioner.
Under these conditions, as the leg is extended, the first strut 21 pivots about the axis 25 (FIG. 2) in an anticlockwise direction with the carriage 2 moving along the direction 4 and compressing the spring 37 given that the spring is held between the ring 41 and the base 1. Under such conditions, the second strut 22 rotates clockwise about the axis 27, with the apex angle 70 of the triangle constituted by the two struts 21 and 22 increasing. During this movement, the link 16 is also caused to rotate counterclockwise about the axis 13 while remaining accurately held in the midplane 50 by virtue of the structure of the apparatus, and in particular by virtue of the fact that the struts and the links are in pairs and are substantially symmetrical about said plane. There is thus no transverse force applied to the knee and the risk of trauma as mentioned in the introduction is eliminated.
After elongating the lower limb, the patient relaxes and the limb returns to the position in which it is bent by the effect of the compression spring 37 relaxing. It should be observed that when the limb is extended, the force indirectly applied on the rigid part of the base 1 is compensated by the fact that the patient is sitting on the flexible part 52 and thus contributing to applying a reaction force which keeps the base 1 in a stable position relative to the patient's body.
The angle between the lower leg and the thigh of the patient in the rest position, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, is adjusted by means of the various notches 32, 33, . . . . By choosing a given notch and placing the shaft 34, therein, a determined angle of the trough relative to the plane of the base is obtained. Such angle value adjustment is well known per se. It consists in deforming a triangle having two sides defined by the second strut 22 and the link 16 which are of constant length and a third side which is of variable length as defined between the axis of rotation with the base 6 on the carriage 2 and the position of the axis 20 of the shaft 34 in one of the various notches of the rack.
Such apparatus has multiple advantages. Compared with prior art apparatuses providing the same therapeutic result, it occupies half the length or less. It is easier to manufacture and it may be made using standard components that do not need to be of superior quality, while nevertheless having a lifetime which is at least as long as that of equivalent products made using components of very high cost. Finally, the fact that the bracket is made of pairs of struts and links interconnected to form quadrilaterals which are articulated at their vertices makes it possible to give the apparatus sufficient rigidity for holding the leg of the patient and avoiding damaging traumatic twisting of the knee, in spite of the rotations of the various components relative to one another.

Wonder which states created the most employment over the past 10 years? CNBC has graded all 50 states to come up with the list. » Read More
There are several things that can be done to help turn the market around, including leaders from Washington and around the world canceling their vacations to go back to work, Jim Cramer said Thursday.
Here's the first super-committee interview with newly appointed member Sen. Pat Toomey.
The past week's market drops and swings are dizzying. Everyday people are commenting that it is scarier than 2008. Now, that probably isn't true because no one is anticipating the inability to take money out of ATMs or the commercial paper market shutting down. Yet, there is something unnerving about the market declines, the uncertainty surrounding the economy and the lack of confidence in political leaders.
We had a flash crash. Then we had a flash rally. Now we're flashing again to the downside. I think we should all go away for a few days and give it a rest.
The Bank of England is gloomy and the Swiss franc can't stop rising - it's your daily FX Fix.
The US Federal Reserve managed to spark a stock rally on Tuesday, but some economists are now left wondering if it will take tax cuts to inject real life into the broader US economy.
Big moves are not being anticipated today and, truth is, the Fed has no big moves left in its deck of cards. The Benjamin might not say anything. But there are some policy steps that could be taken, even though the benefits are modest.
Market expectations for future growth shifting rapidly towards uncertainty over global debt servicing.
Investors woke up Monday to a world in which America is seen as a greater credit risk than anytime in recent history, and they didn't like what they saw. The conversation around why we were downgraded can get as wonky as we want, but let's not get caught up in the weeds. We are where we are because the problem is simple: Our country spends far more than it takes in—trillions more.
Investors are hungry for good news from today's FOMC meeting. Here's what Ben Bernanke can — and can't — deliver.
Following huge losses for the Dow on Monday and further selling in Asia overnight, the markets are watching what the Fed and Ben Bernanke will do at their July Meeting today. Speculation is mounting that the Fed will attempt to restore calm but one fund manager thinks that policy action is unnecessary.
During a period like this, with stocks plunging almost on a daily basis, it's clear that fear and shock are ruling the roost. But fear can be overdone. As someone who has been around awhile and has seen many sell-offs, let me offer some advice: Do not panic. Market corrections come and go. They are not the end of the world. Most times they are actually healthy.
Ben cut interest rates to zero, devised a zillion bowls of "alphabet soup" rescue programs as the Wall Street Journal put it, and bought every bond put out for bid and ballooned the Fed's balance sheet by trillions. Maybe it saved us from disaster, but we haven't seen the growth expected.
I hate to say it, but Nancy was right! I try to be apolitical. I think I succeed most of the time. Trashing both parties more or less equally allows me to stay balanced. So in that continuing effort to stay bland and uninteresting, I have to give mention to Nancy Pelosi who said a few weeks ago it might take a decline of hundreds of points in the market to get the Republicans attention.
The markets around the world are rattled silly this morning by the first ever downgrade of the U.S. Government's debt by Standard & Poors. That is understandable but not, in my mind, rational.
In the U.S., is it the fall of the Roman Empire or will our anemic growth pick up steam and help us out of the economic doldrums? Here are five questions to ask.
One of the first things investors learn after "buy low and sell high" is that markets hate uncertainty.
To be downgraded is a national disgrace. It comes about via a political battle that should never have been fought.
The decision by Standard & Poor's to cut America's debt rating is, in Alan Greenspan's view, bad for America's state of mind.
With S&P's downgrade of the United States' credit rating from AAA to AA, many are speculating on how markets and U.S. authorities will respond.

Alewife opening on the Westside
A high-end beer bar opens in the old Eutaw Savings Bank building.
By Jess Mayhugh. Posted on September 17, 2010, 11:30 am
Last night I attended the grand opening of Alewife, a beer bar and restaurant that opened across the street from The Hippodrome in the old Lucy's Irish Pub and Maggie Moore's location. Of course, the building dates back longer than that, as it was owned by Baltimore Equitable Insurance since 1889, and before that it was the headquarters for the Eutaw Savings Bank.
Despite its storied past, the building has been somewhat of a cursed spot for bar/restaurants. Its off-the-beaten-path location doesn't make it a desired destination, but more popular for an after-work or after-show crowd. However, what the owner of Alewife, Daniel Lanigan, is seeking to do is a little bit different from the others—create a high-end beer bar with 100 bottles and 40 drafts of excellent and obscure brews from around the world.
The space itself is still beautiful: huge open room with dark wood accents, crimson walls, and historic stained-glass windows. There are a dozen or so tables scattered around, including some in the front windows, others on the second floor, and many in a private room off to the side. The service last night was outstanding; the bar even appeared to be overstaffed. I wonder if the rain put a damper on the opening night crowd that Alewife was expecting. But our bartender was knowledgeable about all the exotic beers on the menu and provided thoughtful recommendations. He even let us sample a few beers before we ordered.
There were 75 bottles (with more to come on Monday) and 40 drafts on the beer menu last night, all listed on two giant chalkboards in the main room. I was in the mood for something light so I tried a Reisdorff Kölsch draft ($6), a clean German beer with just enoguh body and a subtle bitterness. On the hoppier (and closer-to-home) side, we tried Bear Republic's Racer 5 IPA ($6), which was less intense than most IPAs and had a nice balance of sweet and bitter notes. We also tried the fruity Allagash White ($5.50) and the full-bodied Smuttynose Big A IPA ($5). All the beer was extremely high-quality and fresh. There's also a dozen $10 cocktails (including a rotating drink called "The Baltimore") and a decent wine list.
The food menu is interesting, with some upscale entrees that you won't find at most beer bars (Ox Tail, Venison Sausage, Rockfish). But we settled for the crabcake and burger. The crabcake was pretty lackluster. It came out fried (I prefer broiled) and most of it was claw meat, not lump. But the accompanying corn salsa was delicious, like having a side of spicy corn-on-the cob. The smoke burger and fries ($14) was phenomenal: smoked Gouda and gruyere cheese, applewood smoked bacon, caramelized onions, and a chipotle aioli on a brioche bun made for a delicious meal. Not to mention, the duck-fat fries with sundried tomato ketchup was a stand-up side.
So, Alewife has a ton going for it. They have a beautiful space with a stellar staff, an owner who clearly knows his beer, and an impressive food menu. What worries me, though, is how much of a crowd they'll get. The location is obviously pretty tricky, though judging from all the business suits last night, I think they'll get a good after-work crowd. And The Hippodrome's proximity will help. But Alewife needs to be a bar that people go out of their way for, which can be a lot to ask in this town. One thing that will attract attention: On October 1st at 4 p.m., Stone Brewing Company will be at Alewife with a whopping 40 of its beers on tap. I'd say that's a pretty good start.

To start, we ordered an entrée to share. The tuna was seared nicely while the salad was zesty in flavour.
I was after something simple so I went for the special of Angel hair pasta with crab. With the classic flavours of garlic, chilli, parsley and crab, it was a great pasta dish. The serving portion was on the small size though, especially after returning from America, and you can see from the photo it was plated up very awkwardly.
The suckling pig was nice but not very tender and the soft and sweet baked apple was a great accommpaniment to the dish. Mr A found the greens on the side were extremely salty though. Mr A still enjoyed it but did not think it was anything spectacular.
My Apple pastry dessert was delicious and very fresh and light. All the elements were perfect and there was only a hint of liquor from the Calvados.
The crumbly and flaky pastry went well with the rich sweetness of the blueberry but I feel like ice cream would have been better with the pie instead of the cream. Still, it was a great dessert.
Overall, our meal was nice, but not exciting with the desserts being the highlight of our meal. The service was a touch stiff and not very warm but all our requests were met promptly.
Food: 7.5/10
Service: 7/10
Value: 8/10
Will I return? No, there are too many great restaurants in Melbourne and this was my second visit here so I would rather try new places.
