Patient Comments: De Quervain's Tenosynovitis - Treatment
What was the treatment for De Quervain's tenosynovitis in you or someone you know?
Comment from: LER819, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: September 24
My wrist, hand, and thumb pain has been chronic and ranges from moderate to severe throughout the day. I recently started treating with a doctor who does manipulative treatments which include percussion treatments. Yesterday my hand and wrist were at a 9 on pain scale of 1 to 10. Since the doctor did the percussion work, nearly 24 hours ago, I have been nearly pain free. I want to find more research on this treatment for De Quervain's tenosynovitis!
Comment from: Zoramar, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: July 06
I was diagnosed with De Quervain's tenosynovitis by a physician's assistant in April and told there was no treatment beyond occupational therapy, alternate cold and hot, and Aleve. I saw a hand surgeon 3 weeks ago and he gave me a shot of cortisone; a panacea like no other. I have had excellent results for 3 plus weeks now.

I finally had surgery about 5 years ago for De Quervain's tenosynovitis and all was great in both hands until I fell. Trying to catch myself something came loose, and my hand blew like a balloon. The pain was unbearable, and now my right wrist looks like it is broken, and I can't use my thumb much at all. It's very painful at times. I have no insurance and no doctor.
Comment from: tomcaia012, 35-44 Male (Patient) Published: May 13
I have had De Quervain"s tenosynovitis for six months and diagnosed 4 months ago. I did therapy and got the dexamethasone injection with lidocaine and Marcaine but that lasted all but 30 minutes and the pain returned. They say it was from gaming but I never had this problem until I had a new born in the end of November. I am scheduled for another injection; not sure if that will work but I do not want to get surgery. This sucks because I am in the military and having this is difficult.
Comment from: judyj, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: March 03
It was 9 weeks after diagnosis of De Quervain"s tenosynovitis to get cortisone injections. The pain kept increasing till it was unbearable. Naproxen had no effect. Injection was only at the top (back of hand). The pain stopped on top of the wrist and thumb but not underneath (palm of hand). The medicine did not travel. Later x-rays showed no cartilage left and the doctor said that"s why the medicine did not travel to the other side. He said I cannot get injections for 4 months (only 3 times a year) or it causes bone damage. Wrist splints press on the area and hurt causing more inflammation. I never did repetitive movements. This is very disabling.
Comment from: dbeedle, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: October 08
I first had symptoms three months ago. De Quervain's tenosynovitis was diagnosed and I had a steroid injection in my wrist and wore a brace to immobilize the wrist and thumb. The doctor advised me that surgery might be required. The wrist seemed to be much better after four weeks and there was no pain. However, about two weeks ago the pain came back with a vengeance. I am scheduled for surgery in a couple of weeks.

Producer Profiles
UCPCO - Unión de Cooperativas Productores de Café Orgánico
They are located in the San Juan del Río Coco region of Northern-Central Nicaragua, approximately six hours from the capital. In the fertile mountains of the Río Coco region, UCPCO farmers are growing high-quality coffee and earning Fair Trade and Organic price premiums for their efforts.
The price we receive from Fair Trade coffee has changed my life but more importantly my children's opportunities. Now, the organic training and capacity-building investments afforded by the increased price has prepared this family of farmers for the future. "
Teresa Muñoz, UCPCO Member
"Fair Trade isn't only fair in the prices for coffee but also in the quality of life of cooperative members; everyday my family's life is greatly improving. Now I have security, comfort and privacy. This is the quality of life that we deserve as family coffee farmers that we can now have by selling out product for a fair price." "
Ramón Isidro Medina Acuña
Organic Production Investments
UCPCO has invested in infrastructure development. Along with helping to purchase organic materials for production, the co-op is in the process of building new offices. Other improvements include the enlargement of the patios for drying coffee and cellars for storage.
Improving Producers lifes
UCPCO has utilized the money from their premium to improve the livelihoods of their members. This program has brought the community together in down times and allowed them to continue prospering through the extra Fair Trade effort.
UCPCO Repairs Roads
UCPCO used premium money to repair roads that used by the organization to transport coffee. In an area with heavy rainfall, dirt roads require frequent maintenance. Reliable roads are key to be able to transport coffee in an efficient and timely manner.

- The FDA has approved privately held Stimwave, LLC's StimQ Peripheral Nerve Stimulator (PNS) System for the relief of severe intractable chronic pain of peripheral origin. StimQ PNS is a wireless, fully programmable PNS neuromodulation device that can be implanted through a standard needle-size insert or small incision. According to the company, the product's small size minimizes the need for surgery and is much more patient-friendly, avoiding the larger cables and bulky components of other neuromodulators.
- StimQ is less than 5% of the size of other implanted pain relief devices. it is powered by a small fabric patch unit that is worn on the body.

- An FDA advisory panel has given unanimous support to a one-of-a-kind dissolving heart stent from Abbott Laboratories (ABT -1.5%).
- The "Absorb" stent is made to dissolve within three years of implantation, after it restores blood flow to a blocked artery. In a 9-0 vote, the FDA's panel decided the benefits of Absorb outweighed the risks, forecasting a likelihood of full FDA approval.
- Such a stent would eventually provide more natural artery motion in comparison with Abbott's market-leading Xience metal stent, which is permanently implanted.
- If approved, the new stent would compete with those made by competitors: Resolute, by Medtronic (MDT -0.9%), and Synergy and Promus, from Boston Scientific (BSX -1.3%). Wells Fargo has estimated that Absorb could initially capture about 5% of the drug-eluting stent market.

Wisden Cricketers' Almanack obituary
MUSHTAQ ALI, SYED, died on June 18, 2005, aged 90. Tall and debonair, often with a kerchief knotted jauntily round his neck, Mushtaq Ali - the son of an Indore police inspector - was a prototype for India's modern cricket heroes. In his foreword to Mushtaq's autobiography, Cricket Delightful, Keith Miller called him "the Errol Flynn of cricket - dashing, flamboyant, swashbuckling and immensely popular wherever he played". He was the first Indian to score a Test century overseas, with 112 at Old Trafford in 1936, when he beat Vijay Merchant to the mark during an opening stand of 203. He reached his hundred inside the final session on the second day, entrancing Neville Cardus, who enthused: "He transforms the bat into a conjuror's wand." There was one other Test century, 106 against West Indies at Calcutta in 1948-49. Mushtaq had a long career, starting in 1930 and continuing until 1963-64 when, aged 48, he scored 41 off several Test bowlers in a Defence Fund match. In between there were numerous Ranji Trophy finals for Holkar, but just 11 Test appearances. These were spread over almost 20 years and finished with India's first victory, by an innings, over England at Madras in 1951-52. Mushtaq's contribution was 22 in a useful opening stand of 53 with Pankaj Roy. He should have played more Test cricket, but the authorities were suspicious of him: there was an early mix-up when a selection letter apparently went astray, and later the Calcutta crowd chanted "No Mushtaq, no Test" when he was originally left out of a representative match against the Australian Services shortly after the war. He pulled out of the 1947-48 trip to Australia after one of his brothers died, and was not selected for the disastrous England tour of 1952. Even at 37 he might have been useful because, unlike most who toured that year, he relished fast bowling. Later, he was a slim, graceful, elder statesman at many of the multifarious awards nights that punctuate India's cricket seasons. Mushtaq's son, Gulrez Ali, and his grandson, Abbas Ali, both played first-class cricket.
Suresh Menon, The Wisden Cricketer
With the death of Syed Mushtaq Ali on June 18, aged 90, the last of the players who represented India before Independence has passed from the scene.
Two historic moments ensured Mushtaq's place in Indian folklore. His 11th and final Test at 37 was a momentous one: India's first Test win, against England at Chennai in 1951-52. Previous to that he had become the first Indian to score a century on foreign soil, against England at Old Trafford in 1936.
Although loved by the public, Mushtaq played in only 10 of India's 22 Tests since his debut aged 19 at Kolkata against England in 1933-34. He ran foul of the authorities; they felt he had once gone missing without their permission - it was to haunt him and restrict his career. Mushtaq explained that the mix-up had to do with his selection letter going astray but he became a marked man; and, when fans in Kolkata showed their love for him by protesting over his non-inclusion (`No Mushtaq, No Test'), it was probably too much for the fragile egos of the officials who waited for a chance to discard him.
Yet the Indore-born batsman was more than the sum of his runs. Playing his early cricket on matting gave him a feel for shots square of the wicket; lack of protection meant he had to develop his footwork to an extraordinary degree. In the words of Ray Robinson, "The only time he is still is while he takes guard from the umpire. Why he goes through the formality is one of the mysteries of the Orient because, after making his mark, he takes no notice of it." Tall, loose-limbed, quick of eye and swift of foot, Mushtaq began his Test career as a left-arm spinner batting at No. 7 but opened in the second innings following an injury to the regular opener Dilawar Hussain. It was not a particularly distinguished debut, although he picked up the wicket of Douglas Jardine.
India had played six opening combinations in five Tests before Mushtaq and Vijay Merchant came together to open at Old Trafford in 1936. Mushtaq was run out in the first innings for 13 after a drive off Alf Gover deflected off Merchant's bat to Arthur Fagg at mid-on, who threw down the stumps.
Then, replying to England's 571 and 368 in arrears, Merchant and Mushtaq finished the day on 190 without loss. Merchant was keen to go for the then world record of 323 but Mushtaq was caught and bowled for 112 early next morning with the partnership on 203. Mushtaq's century was the first abroad by an Indian; Merchant's 114 was the second.
During the innings Mushtaq displayed his patented shots - the pull and the casual walk out to the fast bowler that unsettled him and thrilled the spectators. "We could understand how a Ranji flowered from this field of play," wrote Neville Cardus. "The batting has paid rare tribute to cricket's loveliness, its art and originality."
The Merchant-Mushtaq association averaged 83.43, on either side of the war. Merchant declined the tour to Bradman's Australia in 1947-48 while Mushtaq, nominated vice-captain, pulled out after the death of his brother. He could still have made it after the mourning period as the team had not left. The Maharajah of Holkar was prepared to meet Mushtaq's travelling expenses but the board did not want him. So India undertook a difficult tour without a pair of recognised openers; and Mushtaq Ali realised, if he had not before, that he was not the blue-eyed boy of the board.
For more than half a century Mushtaq kept silent over matters that reduced his international career, although he played first-class cricket until 1963. When he died at his home in Indore, he was one of cricket's most beloved gentlemen.

Wally Hall is the managing sports editor for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. A graduate of the University of Arkansas-Little Rock after an honorable discharge from the U.S. Air Force, he is a past president and member of the Football Writers Association of America, member of the U.S. Basketball Writers Association, past president and current executive committee and board member of the Arkansas Sports Hall of Fame, and voter for the Heisman Trophy.
Want Gruden? Get ready for sticker shock
Jon Gruden, who led Tampa Bay to a Super Bowl win nearly 10 years ago, is reportedly in the mix for job openings at Arkansas and Tennessee.
LITTLE ROCK Since being fired by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Jan. 16, 2009, Jon Gruden has been mentioned for every head football coach opening from UCLA to West Point.
Not to mention every NFL opening.
Gruden won the Super Bowl in his first year as head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2002, and even though he never won another playoff game, he has become a folk hero for college football fans as his popularity as an NFL analyst has skyrocketed. Now the latest - and this apparently was broadcast on CBS: Arkansas and Tennessee are in a bidding war for him.
He is reported to make $8 million from ESPN and $2 million from EA Sports for working part of a week nine months a year, and someone thinks he will take a cut in pay to work 365 days a year?
Yes, it is out there that Arkansas has made him an offer, a really good offer, and he has until Thursday to decide.
It is out there that his friend John Daly, the professional golfer and former Arkansas Razorbacks All-American, is trying to talk him into it.
That doesn't mean he's going to trade his status as ESPN's elite NFL analyst, the guy who has surpassed even John Madden in popularity, to coach college football.
That's like going from Air Force One to a King Air.
If he were going to downsize, it might be to the SEC, which is likely to have a shot at winning a seventh consecutive BCS championship now that Oregon and Kansas State have fallen from the ranks of the undefeated.
But schools might want to consider that 18 of Gruden's 21 years as a coach were spent in the NFL.
He's never really had to recruit.
He spent 1988 as passing game coordinator for Southeast Missouri, the 1989 season as wide receivers coach for University of the Pacific, and had the same job at Pittsburgh in 1991.
It took him just six years as an NFL assistant to become an NFL head coach.
He's an NFL guy.
There is a huge difference in coaching styles in the NFL and college.
Some of college football's greatest coaches have not made it in the NFL. Steve Spurrier, Nick Saban and Lou Holtz immediately come to mind, but the list is much longer.
The NFL is more about psychology and college football is more about relationships.
Gruden would definitely win the news conference, but it is anyone's guess whether he would be successful on the college level since he has no experience as a head coach there.
Gruden, who is nicknamed "Chuckie" because of his resemblance to the doll by that name in the 1988 movie Child's Play, took over a team at Tampa Bay that had been assembled by Tony Dungy, who now is also a big-time TV analyst.
Unless Jeff Long has an agreement with someone already, Tennessee's firing of Derek Dooley on Sunday could impact Long's search for a coach. The Vols' athletic budget is about $10 million more per year than the Razorbacks, which would probably have to be the opening bid for Gruden.

I'm only rating the dressing as I made an entirely different taco salad. I would have never thought that french dressing and salsa would taste so good. Thank you.
Great salad! The only thing I left out was the yellow pepper just because I forget to get it. I also used "E-Z French Dressing" I'll definitely be making this again.
Great salad!!
This was fantastic! I made it low cal using reduced fat Catalina dressing, reduced fat cheese and sour cream. I loved this salad and so did DH this will be a regular during the Summer months! Thanks~
Oz, this was so good. I absolutely cannot stand the typical ground beef, Catalina dressing, frito/dorito salad that my Mom called taco salad. Thos os infinitely better. I added a big avocado and a cup of kidney beans (rinsed).
This was right up my alley as far as salads go. Easy to put together, great taste. I'll be adding this to my favorites cookbook, yet another of yours to go there. Congrats on the Football pool win and I still owe you one!!
OzMan this was great! We used leftover chicken that I roasted and used a medium spiced salsa. An awesome combination of flavors that compliment each other. Will keep the salad dressing fixins in the fridge at all times to make a quick taco salad anytime. Also, used a 100 calorie pack of nacho doritos per salad.
It's hard to go wrong with this combination! I recently took this to a potluck & the crowd oohed & aahed. I don't care for the taste of French dressing so I don't keep it on hand. I used a scaled down portion of E-Z FRENCH Dressing & it worked out great! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
Delicious!! This was a very quick and easy salad with a lot of flavor. The only thing I did differently was to layer the ingredients (including the cheese and tortilla chips) and then tossed it all together. I served the dressing on the side so everyone could use as much or as little as they wanted. My family devoured this and proclaimed it a keeper. Thanks Oz for sharing this wonderful recipe and congrats on winning the Football Pool!!
Wow! The dressing really makes this salad special! We didn't use the avocado as the one I bought was overripe, and DH doesn't care much for sour cream, so he didn't use any, but other than that, we followed this exactly and it was extremely yummy!!! I was a little leery about the salsa and French dressing, but the flavors just blended together and really made this something special!! Oh, this also makes a ton, so I may half it next time for me and DH, although I'll keep the same amount of dressing...it was too yummy not to! Thanks for sharing and congrats on winning the football pool, Oz!

PREVIEWS: "Daredevil," "Uncanny X-Men," & More Marvel Comics On Sale August 3, 2016
Comic Books
Warner Bros. Games has officially announced the "Batman: Return to Arkham" remaster collection, which will include updated versions of the acclaimed "Batman: Arkham Asylum" and "Batman: Arkham City" games.
Releasing July 29 on PS4 and Xbox One, "Return to Arkham" is priced at $49.99 USD/£39.99. Check out the announcement trailer below:
If you're worried the life-size foam replica of Batman you ordered will make your home Batcave feel off-balance, NECA has a solution: a life-size statue of Harley Quinn.
Showcased earlier this month at Toy Fair in New York City, the 5-foot 11-inch figure is based on the fan-favorite character's appearance in the 2011 video game Batman: Arkham City.
DC Comics hasn't had a particularly good run of things lately. To be frank, the publisher has done blown it a number of times over the past few years. But don't worry, DC fans — I'm sure it'll soon be Marvel's turn, as the two rivals seem to trade off every five years or so.
I've been calling out DC for the past couple of weeks, but that doesn't mean everything it does strikes me as wrong. It's important to declare shenanigans, but it's also important to recognize when a publisher does something that's good for comics.
So here are six things DC is doing right:
1. Digital comics: Legends of the Dark Knight and Adventures of Superman are digital-first anthology series that feature some excellent creators (from Jeff Parker and Chris Samnee to J.M. DeMatteis and Jeff Lemire) producing completely accessible and entertaining stories that stand on their own; no college course on the New 52 or Crisis on Infinite Earths required. Yes, these stories are out of continuity — so for a percentage of readers, they don't count. That's a mistake, because there's nothing wrong with a straight-up superhero tale that exists on its own terms. These two anthologies are the gems of DC's digital-first line-up, but Batman '66 and Batman: Li'l Gotham also offer fantastical takes on the iconic Caped Crusader that are bright and fun. For those exhausted by the angsty versions of serious stories, you owe it to yourself to check these out.
DC Collectibles has unveiled four convention-exclusive products that will be offered only to those attending Comic-Con International, held July 18-21 in San Diego.
Fans of Cartoon Network's DC Nation programming block may want to grab the three-pack of Super Best Friends Forever action figures (above), designed by Lauren Faust and sculpted by Irene Matar. Supergirl, Batgirl and Wonder Girl each stand 6.5 inches, 5.45 inches and 6.8 inches, respectively. The three-pack is priced at $49.95. Or, there's the Aardman: Superman action figure, designed by Rich Webber and sculpted by Phil Ramirez. Standing at about 6.5 inches, it's prices at $24.95.
On the heels of Tuesday's announcement that Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment will release a sequel in October to its blockbuster Batman: Arkham City video game, Game Informer has debuted the first screen shots from Batman: Arkham Origins.
Courtesy of Nintendo Everything, we can now see images of Batman squaring off against Deathstroke, Black Mask wielding a hatchet and forceps, Gotham City police officers in tactical gear, and the Penguin brandishing a cattle prod. As the game's title suggests, Batman: Arkham Origins takes place before Batman: Arkham Asylum when eight of the world's greatest assassins come to Gotham City on Christmas Eve to kill Batman.
Rocksteady Studios, the British developer behind Batman: Arkham Asylum and its sequel Batman: Arkham City, is believed to be developing a new installment of the blockbuster video-game series that will feature Superman, Wonder Woman and DC Comics' other major heroes.
Variety reports the Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment game will serve as a prequel to 2009's Arkham Asylum and revolve around Batman's first meeting with his arch-nemesis The Joker, which apparently occurs around the time of the Justice League's formation. Although the trade paper references DC comics of the 1950s, it seems more likely the team lineup will reflect the publisher's New 52.
Before we jump into 2012, I have one last bit of business to take care of: toting up my 2011 predictions, and offering a set for the new year.
1. The Green Lantern movie. Last year I predicted that GL would be "more lucrative than Captain America, not as much as Thor. It ended up making $116 million domestically ($219 million worldwide), well behind Cap's $176 million ($368M globally) and Thor's $181 million ($449M globally). Also, it wasn't as good. I liked it well enough (and from what I hear I may like the Blu-Ray version more), but apparently I was in the minority.
2. Superman and Wonder Woman after JMS. I just had questions for this entry: will Roberson and Barrows stay on Superman? (No.) Will Diana keep the jacket and pants? (No jacket, pants optional.) Finally, I asked "[w]ill sales improve once 'Grounded' ends?" Guess that depends on how you define "ends," because "Grounded" closed out that Superman series; and the next issue of Superman was a New-52 No. 1 which sold almost 100,000 more copies than its predecessor. We may never know what might have happened to Superman without the New 52, but probably not that.

Following the runaway success of Batman: Arkham Asylum and its sequel Arkham City, don't look for Warner Bros. Interactive to return to movie tie-ins anytime soon.
Instead, the new Warner Bros. Games Montreal has been given a mandate: to just make good video games. Specifically, good games based on DC Comics properties. "It's really about make the game what it needs to be and forget the movies," Reid Schneider, the studio's head of production, told Canadian Business.
"If you look over the past decade of superhero games, there were two. The first one was when Neversoft made Spider-Man — I think it was back on the PS1. People were like, 'Wow, this is really good,' and then a couple of things came out that were okay," he said. "Then Rocksteady came out with Arkham Asylum and that again changed the expectations. If you look at the similarities between the two, they weren't based on movies per se. They were just taking that really rich fiction from the comic books and exploring the characters. It's not about hitting the movie date or some arbitrary date — it was giving the game the time it needs to be successful and really just concentrating on the quality of it."
'Tis the season for decking those halls, trimming those trees, lighting the menorah and, of course, figuring out what to buy for your friends and family. To help give you some ideas, we reached out to a few comic creators, asking them:
1. What comic-related gift or gifts would you recommend giving this year, and why?
2. What gift (comic or otherwise) is at the top of your personal wish list, and why?
We've gotten back a bunch of suggestions, which we'll run between now and the end of the week. So let the merriment commence …
Jim McCann
1. Exclusive 2011 Janet Lee Holiday Ornaments
Every year, Janet does about 12 ornaments, three sets of four. This year, she has done Hipster Animals, Scary Toys and Art Nouveau Angels. They are signed and dated, and at the end of the season, that's it! She stops making them. I've been collecting them since 2007, and now our tree is almost completely filled with Janet's art. You can buy them exclusively through her Etsy shop.
Oh, and if you're REALLY nice, she MAY have a very limited Dapper Men ornament or two. Just ask!
2. This year, for myself, I'm going with a mix of Blu-Rays (portable Blu-Ray player, please, Santa!) and books. But the thing I'm REALLY excited for is the hardcover edition of the Complete Ripley novels, by Patricia Highsmith. Most people only know of Ms. Highsmith through The Talented Mr. Ripley (and classic film lovers through Strangers On a Train). There were actually five Tom Ripley novels, and the collection looks amazing. Why these books? My spouse recently Tweeted a quote from John Lithgow that struck me as a writer: "Duality, duplicity, truth and deception, good becoming bad and vice-versa are crucial elements of great storytelling." Highsmith was and remains an unsung hero of mastering that, so I hope I learn something in the process!
Happy Holidays from the Dapper Lariosa-McCann household!
Jim McCann is the writer of Return of the Dapper Men and its upcoming sequel, Marvel Zombies Christmas Carol, Hawkeye:Blindspot and the upcoming Mind The Gap.
Bruce Wayne's butler Alfred Pennyworth has proven himself useful in many situations, whether it's helping out at dinner parties, seeing Wayne's "friends" out with a fresh-baked muffin or even using his archery skills to help Batman fight crime. Now Alfred is moving into new territory by hosting a search engine, Alfred At Your Service, to promote the release of the well-reviewed video game Batman: Arkham City. While it operates like an ordianry search engine, putting in Batman-related phrases like "Harvey Dent" and "Crime Alley" produces quotes from Alfred about the search term.
Ask Jeeves better watch his back.
In a Los Angeles Times profile pegged to today's launch of Batman: Arkham City, Warner Bros. Interactive President Martin Tremblay drops an enticing crumb: In addition to a new Lord of the Rings video game and a sequel to LEGO Batman, next year the studio will release an adaptation of a DC Comics superhero he wouldn't name.
That Warner Bros. is looking to develop more DC properties for its rapidly expanding games division is no secret — a new studio in Montreal is being set up specifically for that task. But what could this mysterious title be?
Kotaku notes that while a Superman game may be the obvious guess, given the release of Zack Snyder's Man of Steel in June 2013, it hardly requires a veil of secrecy. After all, movie tie-ins are par for the course.
Rocksteady and Warner Bros. have released a new trailer for the upcoming Batman: Arkham City video game, one that features the villain Mr. Freeze. The game is due Oct. 18 in North America and Oct. 21 in Europe.
London's Metro has unveiled a new render of Two-Face from Batman: Arkham City, the eagerly anticipated sequel to Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment's bestselling 2009 video game Batman: Arkham Asylum.
Developed by Rocksteady Studios, Arkham City is set inside the newly constructed fortified walls that have transformed part of Gotham's slums into a sprawling maximum-security prison for the city's gangsters, thugs and criminally insane. As earlier screenshots suggest, and Metro confirms, the disfigured Harvey Dent holds Catwoman hostage in Arkham City, and is prepared to execute her — something that players, as Batman, must stop.
Arkham City will be released Oct. 18 in North America and Oct. 21 in Europe.
Warner Bros. has unveiled the 10 designs for the official Comic-Con International bags, which this year include promotional art for DC Comics' relaunched Justice League, Cartoon Network's Green Lantern: The Animated Series and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment's Batman: Arkham City.
More than 130,000 of the oversized bags, described by Entertainment Weekly as the San Diego convention's "ubiquitous accessory," will be available to those attending the July 20-24 event. This year, for the first time, the 24-inch by 28-inch bags convert into backpacks. Other designs include The Big Bang Theory, Fringe, Supernatural, The Vampire Diaries, The Looney Tunes Show, ThunderCats and LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7.
Check out the designs for Green Lantern: The Animated Series and Batman: Arkham City after the break, and visit TheWB.com to see the rest.
MSN has debuted a new trailer for Batman: Arkham City that spotlights the Riddler and his role in the hotly anticipated sequel to the bestselling 2009 video game Arkham Asylum. Developer Rocksteady Studios is inviting fans to comb the video for riddles and post them on the game's official message board by Thursday.
Produced by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and DC Entertainment, Arkham City is set inside the newly constructed fortified walls that have transformed part of Gotham's slums into a sprawling maximum-security prison for the city's gangsters, thugs and criminally insane.
Check out the trailer after the break. Arkham City will be released Oct. 18 in North America and Oct. 21 in Europe.

Cold reality is about to hit the NFL's upset winners from the divisional round.
The NFC's fifth-seeded New York Giants, 21-17 winners over top-seeded Dallas, could encounter sub-zero temperatures in the conference title game against No. 2 seed Green Bay at Lambeau Field (Sunday, 6:30 ET, FOX).
The AFC's third-seeded San Diego Chargers, 28-24 winners over second-seeded Indianapolis, could face temperatures in the high teens against unbeaten New England in the AFC title game (Sunday, 3 ET, CBS).
Then again, the Giants and Chargers have little reason to believe forecasters. Each stands within a victory of Super Bowl XLII, having already overcome long odds.
The NFC's top-seeded teams had won all 17 divisional-round games since the NFL adopted its current playoff format. Eli Manning and the Giants changed that, winning on the road for a ninth consecutive time this season.
Giants defensive end Michael Strahan reveled in knocking off the Cowboys and receiver Terrell Owens in particular. Owens, in predicting he would overcome a severe ankle injury, had advised a reporter to "get your popcorn ready" for the Giants game. He caught an early touchdown pass but could not finish strong.
"We play together, we play to win and we hope T.O. has his popcorn ready," Strahan told reporters in his postgame news conference. "Maybe he and [fellow Cowboys receiver Patrick] Crayton can sit in his home theater and watch us next week."
The Cowboys can watch the Chargers, too, but perhaps not quarterback Philip Rivers or running back LaDainian Tomlinson.
San Diego lost Rivers and Tomlinson to knee injuries. Both are questionable for the New England game. Neither finished what he started against the Colts, but backups Billy Volek and Michael Turner made sure Rivers' three touchdown passes weren't wasted. Volek completed three passes and Turner carried five times during the go-ahead, 78-yard touchdown drive in the fourth quarter.
"We'll catch our breath, we'll go see where we are from a health standpoint and then we'll ready to go," said Chargers coach Norv Turner, who suddenly needs one playoff victory to tie Bobby Ross and Don Coryell for the most in team history. "We wanted to play our best game in January and, hopefully, we still have our best game in us."
Here are a few other observations from Sunday's divisional-round action:
1. Best to keep one's head in the game
Cowboys receiver Patrick Crayton appeared to lose his concentration when dropping Tony Romo's improbable third-and-13 pass early in the fourth quarter.
Romo scrambled to his left, then threw back across his body, leading Crayton perfectly as the receiver moved from left to right at the Dallas 30. Crayton might have turned the play into a huge gain or even an 83-yard touchdown had he caught the ball. Instead, the Cowboys punted and the Giants responded with the go-ahead touchdown drive.
Brett Favre's spinning, underhanded flip pass in Green Bay's divisional-round victory Saturday worked only because tight end Donald Lee stayed with Favre all the way.
Romo hasn't been around nearly as long as Favre, but few quarterbacks are better at improvising. His receivers should never lose their focus before the whistle blows. Tight end Jason Witten proved as much with a heads-up adjustment to facilitate a flip pass, but the play was too little, too late.
Romo wasn't at his best against the Giants, but he could have used a little more help.
2. Continuity can be overrated
The Giants' unexpected ascension to the NFC title games proves the wisdom of sticking with a successful coach (Tom Coughlin) who hasn't been able to break through in the playoffs.
Except for this: The Chargers' unexpected ascension to the AFC title game proves the wisdom of replacing a successful coach (Marty Schottenheimer) who fails break to through in the playoffs.
And this: Green Bay is back in the NFC title game for the first time since the 1997 season. The Packers got there two years after firing Mike Sherman, who had averaged 10.6 victories per season over a five-year period, but without getting past the divisional round.
The Giants have won two playoff games this season after failing to win one in three previous seasons under Coughlin. The Chargers won 47 regular-season games in five seasons under Schottenheimer, but they were 0-2 in the playoffs during that stretch.
Continuity is generally helpful, but not always.
The Chargers, having changed staffs on both sides of the ball in the last year, faced a Colts team with long-term stability in all key phases of its operation.
San Diego's slow start under Turner might have helped the Chargers gain momentum in the playoffs. At 11-5, they drew a depleted Tennessee team in the wild-card round, an ideal scenario for playoff success.
Schottenheimer's 14-2 record last season bought a first-round bye. That wasn't necessarily a good thing. Instead of opening the playoffs against an overmatched team, the Chargers drew playoff-tested New England and lost.
3. When playing it safe is playing to win
Indianapolis' Tony Dungy and San Diego's Turner showed there could be more to making decisions than simply playing to win or playing not to lose.
Dungy played for a touchdown instead of a field goal on fourth-and-goal from the 7 while trailing by four points with 2:06 remaining. The Colts had three timeouts remaining, so a field goal try was a viable option, particularly with Rivers and Tomlinson unavailable for San Diego.
Dungy played to win, but the Chargers' defense held.
After San Diego took over possession, Turner decided to run the ball against 10 in the box on third-and-4 with 1:49 remaining. On the surface, Turner was playing not to lose. By opting to run instead of pass, he was essentially daring Peyton Manning to beat him with 90 seconds left and one timeout at the Colts' disposal.
Turner's decision made sense for other reasons, and not only because it worked.
Turner knew his punter, Mike Scifres, enjoyed the third-best net average among full-time punters in 2007. He knew throwing the ball in that situation could be riskier with Volek at quarterback instead of the injured Rivers, particularly with tight end Antonio Gates still limited by injury. Turner also knew the Colts would have a harder time moving the ball with injured receiver Marvin Harrison standing on the sideline.
Scifres' 66-yard punt forced the Colts to start at their own 32. Manning completed only one pass, a 5-yarder, on the Colts' ensuing drive.
Aggressive coaches fared better in the wild-card round, and Turner was among them. The Chargers held a 10-6 lead over Tennessee when Turner bypassed a field goal try on fourth-and-goal from the 1.
Tomlinson's second-effort touchdown carried risk, but the reward was an 11-point lead.
The hard part is knowing when to be aggressive and when to back off. Turner has made the right decisions so far.
4. Divisional-round trend levels off
Home teams won 20 of 28 divisional-round games from the 2000 season through the 2006 season, but the trend could be losing momentum.
Road teams have gone 6-6 in the divisional round over the last three seasons.
Last season, fourth-seeded New England scored 11 points in the final 4:36 to knock off the top-seeded Chargers. The third-seeded Colts also claimed a 15-6 victory over second-seeded Baltimore last season.
Two years ago, fifth-seeded Carolina upset second-seeded Chicago when Steve Smith caught 12 passes for 218 yards and two touchdowns. Sixth-seeded Pittsburgh upset top-seeded Indianapolis that year, ultimately advancing to Super Bowl XL, where the Steelers defeated Seattle.

In the ecstasy and agony of a city winning and losing an NFL team, the economic impact of the arrival and departure of a professional football franchise is always hotly debated.
With the St. Louis Rams on their way back to Los Angeles after leaving the city in 1995, San Francisco-based Trulia.com has looked at the data and after further review says that when it comes to housing near NFL stadiums, most cities are getting sacked for a loss despite civic promises of the venues improving economic growth.
"New stadiums built in the last decade, by and large, have failed to lift the fortunes of nearby neighborhoods," said David Weidner, Trulia's managing editor for the company's research team, in a Jan. 20 report. (Weidner formerly worked at MarketWatch as an editor.)
While most NFL stadiums built several decades ago were typically constructed with suburbanites in mind who wanted plenty of parking to tailgate, many new football stadiums are following the lead of baseball stadiums and becoming urban affairs with parks and residential construction.
One of the latest examples is the Minnesota Vikings' new 65,000 seat U.S. Bank stadium in downtown Minneapolis which will open for the 2016 season and will also host the Super Bowl in 2018. Only about half the cost of the $1.06 billion stadium, however, is being covered by the team's owners, the Wilf family.
In its analysis, Trulia chose homes that were two miles or less away from a stadium in its survey of 31 teams (excluding Levi's Stadium, home of the San Francisco 49ers, as it only opened in 2015) , and only used homes with similar square footage and living space.
A History of NFL Team Moves
With the Rams relocating from St. Louis to Los Angeles this year, WSJ takes a look at NFL franchise moves since 1937.
For example, though the Oakland Raiders won't be moving to Los Angeles for a second time, at least not in 2016, in the 21 years that they've been in Oakland since their return in 1995, there's been no measurable improvement in housing prices (nor the team, with only three winning seasons out of the two decades they've been back in Oakland) in the area near the O.co Coliseum.
In fact, despite the overall gain in housing prices in Oakland as a result of the technology boom in the Bay Area (up 16% in the past year, according to Zillow.com) and as many residents seek more affordable housing across the Bay from San Francisco, housing prices around the Coliseum have been — like the stadium 's nickname — a Black Hole, averaging 9% less than other neighborhoods in Oakland. The Oakland Coliseum also has the ignominy of being the only stadium that is shared by both an NFL team and a Major League Baseball team (the Oakland Athletics), contributing to the lack of investment as neither team sees the Coliseum in its long-term plans.
And despite the NFL-best six Super Bowl rings for the Pittsburgh Steelers, the real-estate values around Heinz Field, which opened in 2002, are 18% less on average than other neighborhoods in the Steel City, the worst out of the 31 NFL markets surveyed, according to Trulia. Even around CenturyLink Field in Seattle, which since 2002 has been one of the most raucous stadiums outside of Oakland's Black Hole, housing values are nearly 15% lower than the rest of the city, the research firm noted.
NFL: Rams will return to Los Angeles for 2016 season
After two decades without a team in the nation's second-largest media market, NFL owners voted to move the St. Louis Rams back to Los Angeles, the city they called home for nearly 50 years.
That doesn't mean some homes nearest to NFL stadiums haven't increased in value. Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, home to the Eagles since 2003, has seen homes near the stadium being offered at a 44% premium over other neighborhoods in the city, while rents are 9% higher, the highest premium in cities with NFL teams, Trulia said.
Though Kevin Finkel, executive vice president with Resource Real Estate, a real-estate investment company in Philadelphia, said the premium home valuations nearest Lincoln Financial Field have nothing to do with the stadium. "I don't believe there is a correlation," he said, adding the increase is more to do with the South Philly neighborhood becoming more affluent and a hub for the city's other professional sports franchises. For example, Citizens Bank Park, where the MLB team the Phillies play, and the Wells Fargo Center, where the NHL's Flyers and NBA's 76ers play. "Those homes, like the stadium, happen to be located in a strategic part of the city, with very good transportation hubs," he said.
And even though the Cleveland Browns have an uncanny ability to find new ways to lose games and such bad luck at drafting players that Hollywood has made a movie about the team actually being good, homes near First Energy stadium have more than a 31% premium over other homes in the city, and a 13% premium in rents, the second-best of all cities in NFL markets.
For the city of St. Louis, the loss of its team as the Rams franchise returns to Los Angeles for the first time in more than 20 years might not just hit the city's pride. According to Trulia's data, homes in St. Louis near the Edward Jones Dome, which was the home of the team from 1995 until this year, were valued at 17% higher than other homes in the same market. Rents, too, averaged more than 5% higher near the stadium than other rents in the region.

With the San Diego Chargers also likely to speed their divorce from Qualcomm Stadium and bolt back to Los Angeles to play in that city for the first time since 1960, housing prices in San Diego might tilt downward as well once the team leaves. Homes within two miles of the stadium once known for the Holy Roller and the San Diego Chicken, pulled in a slight 4.5% premium over the rest of the city, Trulia said.
Still, hope springs eternal for not just NFL teams, but housing prices. Now Los Angeles Rams owner Stan Kroenke is pitching an Inglewood, Calif-based stadium as more than just a football venue, with plans for movie theaters, shopping and residential housi ng, financed out of his own pocket.
"We think it's going to boost property values," Sandra Green-Murray, a real-estate agent with Playa Marina Properties in Los Angeles told Trulia. "This is an area with a lot of property that can be developed. We're expecting lots of growth."

I hesitate to leave this review for fear I may be jeopardizing my ability to get reservations by saying how great it is. I have been coming her with my toy poodle for years. I meet the best people on the porch at breakfast which is several courses and always fabulous. The staff is friendly and efficient. Perfect B&B that is similar to the feel of staying with sweet friends in a welcoming, unobtrusive atmosphere. The rooms are equipped with all the amenities of a posh establishment and is just as desirable for those traveling without pets. So clean. So pretty.

Mitt Romney
Republican presidential candidate and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney arrives to his election night rally, Wednesday, Nov. 7, 2012, in Boston. President Obama defeated Republican challenger former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.
David Goldman, Associated Press
Willard Mitt Romney (born March 12, 1947) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 70th Governor of Massachusetts from 2003 to 2007. He was the Republican Party's nominee for President of the United States in the 2012 election.
Raised in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, by his parents Lenore and George W. Romney, Mitt Romney spent two and a half years in France as a Mormon missionary starting in 1966. He married Ann Davies in 1969, with whom he has had five children.
By 1971, Romney had participated in the political campaigns of both his parents. In that year, he earned a Bachelor of Arts at Brigham Young and in 1975, a joint Juris Doctor and Master of Business Administration at Harvard.
Romney then entered the management consulting industry and in 1977 he secured a position at Bain & Company. Later serving as its chief executive officer, he helped lead the company out of financial crisis.
In 1984, he cofounded and led the spin-off company Bain Capital, a highly profitable private equity investment firm that became one of the largest of its kind in the nation. His considerable net worth, estimated in 2012 at $190250 million, helped finance his prior political campaigns.

CBRE is pleased to be appointed as the exclusive marketing advisor for the offering of The Grande Reserve at Geist, a 146-unit institutional-grade community located in the ultra-exclusive, water-oriented Geist Reservoir submarket. The Grande Reserve is the only rental community in Geist, and there are no additional sites for development of multifamily. The captive and refined nature of the Geist-area renter profile has demonstrated a willingness to pay for premium rental housing. Several of the units have been upgraded with granite and stainless steel to accommodate this resident preference. The acquisition of The Grande Reserve at Geist presents the opportunity to continue the upgrade program which has produced as much as $240 rent premiums.
As the only significant body of water in Indianapolis that allows power boating, Geist Reservoir is truly a destination. Due to the scarcity of single-family sites in the area, entry-level waterfront home pricing is generally $1 million. The Grande Reserve at Geist is located immediately across the street from Geist Reservoir, near some of the city' s finest housing. The property is two blocks from grocery-anchored neighborhood shopping and is ten minutes from the Castleton Square, the state' s largest mall.
