Triglycerides belong to a group of fat-related substances called lipids. An increase in levels of certain lipids—a condition called "hyperlipidemia"—contributes to heart disease.
To test for hyperlipidemia, physicians rely on blood tests called lipid profiles that measure triglycerides as well as two types of the lipid cholesterol: low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or "bad" cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or good cholesterol.
In many people with hyperlipidemia, elevation of LDL predominates. Drugs in the statin family work particularly well at treating this form of hyperlipidemia. (For information on natural treatments for this condition, see the High Cholesterol article.)
In some people with hyperlipidemia, however, high triglyceride levels are the primary problem. These people are just as much at risk for heart disease as people with elevated LDL cholesterol. Furthermore, if triglyceride levels get high enough, the pancreas may become inflamed, causing a dangerous condition called pancreatitis. Skin lesions called xanthomas may occur as well.
Common causes of elevated triglyceride levels include genetic predisposition, diabetes, excessive alcohol intake, and various medications (including estrogen , tamoxifen, glucocorticoids , thiazide diuretics , and some beta-blockers ).
People with high triglycerides may not respond well to statin drugs. Instead, they may need to use high-dose niacin or drugs in the fibrate family . Exercise (with or without weight loss) may also lower triglycerides. Diet, except when weight loss occurs, may not help, as a low-fat, high-carbohydrate diet can actually raise triglyceride levels.
Principal Proposed Natural Treatments
Fish oil has shown distinct promise for treating hypertriglyceridemia. More than 2,000 people have participated in well-designed studies of fish oil for reducing triglyceride levels. 1 Most studies ran from about 7 to 10 weeks.
It appears that fish oil supplements can reduce triglycerides by about 25% to 30%. Although not all studies have been positive, in a detailed review of 47 randomized trials, researchers concluded that fish oil is capable of significantly reducing triglyceride levels with no change in total cholesterol levels and only slight increases in HDL ("good") cholesterol and LDL ("bad") cholesterol. 35 However, it should be noted that in some studies, use of fish oil has markedly raised LDL cholesterol, which might offset some of the benefit.
For more information, see the full High Cholesterol article.
Fish oil has been studied for reducing triglyceride levels specifically in people with diabetes , and it appears to do so safely and effectively. 3 Furthermore, in people using statin drugs to control lipid levels, the addition of fish oil or its isolated component DHA appears to improve results. 4, 34
Fish oil is a source of omega-3 fatty acids , healthy fats that the body needs as much as it needs vitamins. The most important omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil are named EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). According to some, but not all, studies, EPA may be more important than DHA for reducing triglyceride levels. 5-10, 32
In addition, a slightly modified form of fish oil (ethyl-omega-3 fatty acids) has been approved by the FDA as a treatment for hypertriglyceridemia (high triglycerides). 33 This specially processed product, sold under the trade name Omacor, is widely advertised as more effective than ordinary fish oil. However, it should be noted that Omacor has undergone relatively little study itself; the physician prescribing information notes only two small trials to support its effectiveness for this use. This is far less evidence than usually required for drug approval, and also substantially less than the body of evidence supporting standard fish oil as a treatment for high triglycerides.
For more information, including dosage and safety issues, see the full Fish Oil article.
Other Proposed Natural Treatments
Numerous studies indicate that soy can reduce total and LDL cholesterol, especially when it replaces animal protein in the diet, and on this basis it has been approved for a "heart healthy" label by the FDA. Soy also appears to modestly improve triglyceride levels. 11
The supplement pantethine is widely promoted as a natural treatment for hypertriglyceridemia. However, the evidence that it works rests on small studies with somewhat inconsistent results. 12-16
In people with type 2 diabetes, use of chromium may reduce triglyceride levels, according to some but not all preliminary trials. 17-21
However, chromium does not appear to be effective for reducing triglyceride levels in people without diabetes. 20,22-25
Other herbs and supplements that have shown promise for reducing triglyceride levels include fenugreek , 27creatine , 28 and Achillea wilhelmsii . 29
The drug tamoxifen has a tendency to raise triglyceride levels. In an open study, simultaneous use of vitamin C (500 mg daily) and vitamin E (400 mg daily) counteracted this side effect. 30
The supplement flax oil contains omega-3 fatty acids similar but not identical to those found in fish oil. It has been proposed as an alternative to fish oil, because it does not cause fishy burps. However, evidence suggests that flax oil is not as effective as fish oil for reducing triglycerides. 1
Walnut oil has shown some promise for reducing triglycerides. 31
In a randomized trial of 86 people with high cholesterol and diabetes , sage leaf extract improved cholesterol (HDL and LDL) and trigycerides when compared to placebo. 36
Most natural treatments used to reduce cholesterol have the potential to reduce triglyceride levels as well. For more information on these many options, see the full High Cholesterol article.

Life can be a handful at times, how would you cope if the unthinkable happened? Can your loved ones afford the family finances if you die?
Life insurance can provide a cash lump sum when you die which can be used to remove the financial stress at an unbearable and difficult time for your loved ones. We provide life insurance advice to clients in Welham Green.
You may already have life insurance. Did you buy the cheapest life insurance? Cheap life insurance is not always the best life insurance to buy, think about it; would you buy a cheap parachute?
Is your life insurance written in trust? Writing your life insurance in trust is good financial planning - the benefits do not form part of your estate so can be paid out swiftly without having to wait for probate to be granted. Also, as the life insurance pay out is not part of your estate, it is not liable to inheritance tax (IHT).
Some people believe the have life insurance provided by their employer, but sometimes it turns out they only have an accidental death policy, which is not the same thing. Also, are the premiums on your life insurance guaranteed or reviewable? If they're reviewable they may potentially change in the future.
We compare life insurance quotes from a number of insurers to ensure we are getting the best life insurance policy for customers in Welham Green. At the same time, we also explore whether you would benefit from obtaining Critical Illness Cover (CIC) and Income Protection Insurance.
We always emphasise the importance of having adequate life insurance cover in case of the unthinkable happening. It is not a pleasant subject, but it is a simple process to provide you and your family with peace of mind that the essentials of life are taken care of.
We offer products from a limited number of insurers for life assurance, critical illness cover, income protection, buildings and contents insurance and accident, sickness and unemployment insurance. Ask us for a list of insurers we offer insurance from.

Not long after my kids received their copy of The Polar Express with its read-along CD, I discovered Lorito Books. At the time, it was a new company that had just launched its collection of audiobooks. I'm happy to say that they have done well despite the sluggish economy, and have, in fact, really grown over the past year.
The company's president, Pam Fochtman, saw a need in the community for these materials. The company is committed to developing second language literacy and promoting the beauty of Latino culture. And they believe that audiobooks are a valuable tool to accomplish these goals.
Their high quality, word-for-word audiobook read-alongs for young readers and second language learners are carefully chosen for their culturally relevant content and values. Their products include Growing Up With Tamales/Los tamales de Ana, The Desert is my Mother/El desierto es mi madre, Icy Watermelon/ Sandía fría and other popular titles in Latino children's literature.
I've had the pleasure of reviewing several of their books with CDs through the Latin Baby Book Club, and I especially appreciate how Pam has chosen native speakers - who just happen to be outstanding storytellers - to record the books. You can learn more about the narrators on the Lorito Books website.
Pam has generously offered two of her new releases as giveaways for MommyMaestra.
The Runaway Piggy/El cochinito fugitivo is a bilingual takeoff on the gingerbread man story. It's full of the sounds and people that make up a traditional Latino neighborhood. There is a cochinito cookie recipe included in the back of the book and even comes with piggy cookie cutters! You can listen to some audio samples here, or learn more about the story here.
Two MommyMaestra readers will receive a copy of one of the books with CD.
2) Follow MommyMaestra on Facebook
3) Follow me on Twitter and tweet the following: Win bilingual audiobooks from Lorito Books and @LatinMami http://bit.ly/xRqrmL #bilingual #audiobooks #giveaway
Don't forget to let me know by posting a separate comment for each entry!

Intellectual Capital: The New Wealth of Organizations
Doubleday / Currency, 1997. jan. 1. - 261 oldal
Knowledge has become the most important factor in economic life. It is the chief ingredient of what we buy and sell, the raw material we work with. Intellectual capital -- not natural resources, machinery, or even financial capital -- has become the one indispensable asset of corporations.
"Intellectual Capital" is a groundbreaking book, visionary in scope and immediately practical in application. It offers powerful new ways of looking at what companies do and how to lead them. This is the first book to show how to turn the untapped, unmapped knowledge of an organization into its greatest competitive weapon. It reveals how to unlock the value of hidden assets; how to find them in the talent of a company's people, the loyalty of its customers, and the collective knowledge embodied in an organization's culture, systems, and processes. And it shows how to manage these vital assets -- which until now have largely been ignored.
Dazzling in its ability to make conceptual sense of the economic revolution we are living through, "Intellectual Capital" cuts through the vague rhetoric of "paradigm shifts" to show how the Information Age economy really works -- and how to make it work for you and your business.
Thomas A. Stewart is an award-winning member of the board of editors of "Fortune" magazine. He pioneered the field of intellectual capital in a series of landmark articles that earned him an international reputation as the chief expert on the subject. The Planning Forum called him "the leading proponent of knowledge management in the business press, " and Business Intelligence, a British research group, gave him a special award for his outstanding contributions to the field.
Click here to visit the "Intellectual Capital" website.
"Tom Stewart has become a tycoon of intellectual capital, and this work sharesthe wealth and magnifies it. Buy the book and join the value chain."

Manhunt's Times Square Billboards of Shirtless Hunks Arouse (Ahem!) Controversy
There's a poster advertising the revival of the Broadway musical "Annie." But, to paraphrase from one of that show's songs, the sun isn't all that's gonna come out tomorrow. Just above the adorable cartoon of Little Orphan Annie is a photo of a man with a bust the size of Mt. Rushmore's presidential busts.
Gay hookup site Manhunt is back in New York's center again with three sexy billboards in Times Square this week to advertise its new Manhunt Mobile campaign.
The hundreds of thousands of tourists and New Yorkers who pass through what is known as "the crossroads of the world" certainly noticed the rotating billboard near the southeast corner of Broadway and West 47th Street. Three steamy images show hunky dudes with developed pectorals and abdominals that scream "Look at me!" All of them are on their smartphones, presumably not to check the latest stock quotations.
Some find the ads, which will run through New Year's Day, too X-rated for Times Square as the shirtless buff men are deemed not fit for the kiddies. In November 2011, some parents were upset with Manhunt's risqué ad in Los Angeles, which was similar to the ones that recently appeared in New York.
"It's not the blatant porn-iness of the over-lit image, or that it is of two men. It would be equally annoying if it were hetero," Kelly Cole, a mother who calls herself a "liberal feminist" wrote in on Studio City Patch. "I know some would tell me to use the opportunity for an illuminating conversation. But I don't need Manhunt Mobile to set my Important Talks Agenda. Our family really could have gone awhile longer without that particular conversation-and should've been able to do so."
The website's Jason Harvey wrote in a blog post that the site and the advertising agency, Lamar Advertising, received a number of complaints regarding the billboard soon after it was put up. A representative for the agency said the company took measures to ensure the ad would "not within 500 feet of schools, churches, playgrounds, etc."
This isn't the first time gay social networking site put up ads in Times Square. Last year, Manhunt put up a similar billboard in the same exact spot that reportedly was seen by more than one million people who attended New York City's iconic New Years Eve celebration -- not to mention the tens of millions who watch the ball drop on MTV, CNN, ABC and nearly every other TV outlet.
In an example of the odd bedfellows outdoor advertising can produce, this year's billboard, coincidentally, just happens next to be next to a billboard for the Church of Latter Day Saints, or the Mormons.
When the Huffington Post reported the story, the site asked its readers whether they felt the Manhunt ads were appropriate. As of this writing, half voted "Yes - make the yuletide gay!" Just 11.4 percent voted, "No - it's offensive, and there are children present!" Over one-third voted "No - but it wouldn't be appropriate if it depicted a straight couple, either."
Some gay men have criticized the ads as well. On blogsite JoeMyGod, on man wrote "Tattooed hunk or no, it is all visual pollution, getting worse with every day."
Another wrote, "I am sorry but this is really not appropriate for time square. I would be against it if it was for a str8 site too. Very Tacky. I find it tacky to have a sex hookup site on a billboard of any kind."
"nycmike" wrote, "I find this just as offensive as I would a heterosexual site which existed only for people to have one night stands. Sorry, but IMHO this is just wrong. Sure the guy is hot, and I'm all for exposure, especially when it's some hot guy sans his shirt, but it's just kinda tacky."
But the best comment may have been "Lotsa luck finding other gay men in the Theater District!"

Driven to crime

Driven to Crime
by Robert W. Butsch
The Formula Junior race at Brands Hatch in 1963 that saw Mike Hailwood, piloting a Brabham in his first try at four wheel competition, finish fifth is remembered today only for being the advent of the British two-wheel ace's star-crossed Grand Prix career. However, the winner of that event went on to achieve considerable renown in another field, in the process drawing the attention of Scotland Yard and the Buckinghamshire CID.
Roy James, by many accounts including Hailwood's, showed great promise as a racing driver. He had begun in karts. At Brands Hatch in '63 he was early into a 17 for 19 streak in Formula Junior. But he faced the same hurdle that most up-and-coming drivers not independently wealthy face: where will the money come from? The fact that racing demands significant capital investment can be attested to even by those who have never had to deal with Bernie Ecclestone. Niki Lauda got himself fearfully in debt before he hit the big time. Nigel Mansell once mortgaged his home to keep racing. James, apparently larcenous by nature or upbringing, seems to have decided at a tender age to obtain his funds by methods requiring neither interest payments nor restoration of principle.
By 1962, car theft and second-story work had already earned him periodic confinement as a guest of Her Majesty's Government. In that year he and his mate, Micky Ball, like James short of stature and ethics and long on driving ability, made off with 144,000 pounds Sterling worth of someone else's jewelry in Monte Carlo. Upon their return to England they fell in with a gang planning to knock over an armored truck payroll shipment at Heathrow in November. They were assigned the duty of getting the money and the thugs away from the scene of the crime in two stolen Jaguars. In accomplishing this James was able to display some of his motoring skills. While exiting through a gate in the airport's perimeter fence he bounced off of an Austin A40 trying to block his way, but was able to keep going (here I shall stalwartly resist making any comparison with Jerez, 1997, except to observe that, although fraud was committed in Spain, at least nothing was stolen). Once on the main road he quickly overtook Ball, but, in a nervy move, balked traffic in the middle of an intersection whose light had just turned red allowing Ball and the money to get through. The robbery was a brutal affair, assorted clerks and armored truck guards having been coshed with homemade blackjacks, and netted the gang only 62,000 pounds. In the ensuing investigation Scotland Yard's Flying Squad recognized James and Ball as the only usual suspects possessed of the sort of flair displayed in the getaway. Ball quickly caved in, in the process betraying a couple of the other perpetrators but not James. Only Ball wound up doing any time. James used part of his share of the loot to purchase the Brabham that got him going in Formula Junior.
Buoyed by the notoriety of, if not the financial return on, the airport job, the gang set its sights higher. They planned to hit a night train that allegedly carried millions of pounds in bank reserves from Glasgow to London. They brought in another London gang in order to obtain the services of one of its members, a florist accomplished at rigging railroad signals to stop trains. Ball, indisposed as a result of the
Heathrow affair, was not in on this one, but Roy James was, in the process sinking his fledgling racing career while becoming a party to one of the most famous crimes ever committed.
To James's credit he doesn't seem to have catered much to the personal assaults inherent in stealing from people. Thus it was that he volunteered to master the art of decoupling railroad coaches, this activity being necessary to the planned robbery in order to facilitate moving the locomotive and mail coach away from the balance of the stopped train to a location offering road access for the getaway vehicles. He and a couple of other gang members were able to practice unnoticed in London rail yards until they achieved the desired expertise. His study of railroad technology also convinced James that he could operate the hijacked diesel locomotive should the driver prove to be uncooperative. Under a ruse he even hitched a short ride in a locomotive out of Euston station in order to observe the operation of the controls. However, movement of the locomotive and mail coach was so vital to the success of the enterprise that the gangs elected, despite James's ardent disapproval, to bring in an elderly train driver hankering after a little adventure to do the job. James was undoubtedly unhappy in the gangs' choice of vehicles as well. Not Jaguars this time, but two old Land Rovers (only one of which was stolen) and an army surplus truck. The gangs also declined to exploit James's road racing talent. Due to the imposing bulk of the material they intended to steal and the impossibility of Ball providing assistance to James in any long distance getaway, the gangs decided to purchase a small farm house near the proposed site of the robbery to serve as a staging point. From here the caper would be launched, and here the money would be stashed until things settled down. At least James was spared the indignity of being given charge of the proposed transport away from the farm house for the money: a horse trailer.
The whole gambit was meticulously planned, and testament to the adage that if criminals would put half as much effort into legitimate work as they put into crime, they could be rich without the inconvenience of having to go to jail. The train was duly stopped by rigging the selected signal, which was located on an isolated stretch of track in Buckinghamshire. The fireman was abducted as he returned from the signal's disabled call box. The cab was stormed and the driver bashed nearly to unconsciousness. James and another gang member decoupled the back end of the train on cue. The gangs' driver was unable to get the locomotive moving, as was the train's groggy driver, until enough vacuum developed, but this did not upset the schedule. The thieves smashed their way into the mail coach, then formed a bucket brigade to get the money bags moved from it to the army surplus truck. They were even disciplined enough to leave some money behind when their prearranged time limit had been reached. They convoyed back to the farmhouse as the sun was coming up. Roy James, in the most famous drive of his life, motored along with uncharacteristic sedateness at the wheel of a Land Rover. Bear in mind that this was August of 1963 and you realize that they got away with a staggering amount of money: 2.5 million pounds.
In complex undertakings people can make mistakes; and, as James could have attested to based on his motor racing experience, if they make mistakes where the risk factor is high the consequences can be severe. One of the robbers told the train crew to remain still for 30 minutes, clueing the police to the possibility that the gangs were hiding out near by. At the farm house some of the robbers occasionally forgot to wear their gloves, thereby leaving behind fingerprints. Others elected to paint the truck since it had been seen by one of the train's crewman. Paint drops and splotches wound up in assorted places including on the bottoms of shoes. Mail bags from which money had been removed were disposed of haphazardly
The thieves, spooked by radio reports that the police were scouring the general area, made an early, disorganized exit from the farmhouse, ultimately abandoning the horse trailer plan. James retrieved his personal Jaguar, made high speed runs between London and the farm house carrying money, and spent an entire working day at his garage in order to avoid arousing anyone's suspicion by an unexplained absence. He nevertheless found time to deliver 12,500 pounds of his own proceeds to Micky Ball's home.
When the Buckinghamshire police, acting on a neighbor's tip, discovered the farmhouse with its embarrassment of evidence, the game w

[B]I saw James race at the 1979 Phoenix Park meeting in Dublin. He was driving in the Formula Ford race. He was probably the oldest entrant in the field. He spun off right in front of where I was standing. A few spectators who had ignored the marshalls (it was Ireland after all)and were sitting on the grass on the wrong side of the barriers had to beat a hasty retreat as James gyrated towards them.I think that he gave up motor racing for good shortly afterwards.

I have also heard that the vehicles used during the robbery where purchased from a certain used car dealer who also has also gone on to make a name in connection with motor sport...

The question I always ask (the kid must be nearly 20 now) is how does the child feel - having come into being to protect a criminal?
No motor sport connections here, I'm afraid.. but if you go to visit him you can soon find your way to look at the roads used by those who raced against Fangio in the Gran Premios of the 30s and 40s.

I just saw said child (a handsome and articulate lad, I believe named Colin?) on a documentary about Carnaval in Rio; apparently he's the director or at least a principal of one of the big time Samba crews. My favorite Ronnie Biggs sighting, though, is his palling around (and making his singing debut) with Steve Jones and Paul Cook of the Sex Pistols in Malcolm McLaren's (hah! an F1 reference after all!) infamous film The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle.

A few years ago a British national rally driver was featured on ITV's "The Cook Report" for breaking up stolen cars - I don't know what became of him.
Posted 11 April 2000 - 21:31
As racing-obsessed teenagers in the weird, futuristic city of Brasilia, Nelson Piquet and Roberto Moreno were ringleaders of a gang which would "borrow" vehicles (primarily VW's) for the evening, stage an impromptu Grand Prix on the deserted ring roads outside the city, and then- this was the important part- return each car exactly where they'd nicked it, even if somewhat the worse for wear.
The municipal polizei were outraged by these youthful offenses against public decency and property rights, with the result that one evening, as Nelson came rocketing over a hill, he was confronted by a full-scale roadblock of Brasilian cops, weapons locked and loaded. Nelson promptly executed a perfect handbrake turn and exited in the direction he'd come, I assume both impressed and amused. He was really impressed, though, upon returning the borrowed Beetle, to discover a sizable bullet hole in the rear window fairly close to the general latitude and longitude of the back of his head, put there by one of the frustrated gendarmes.
Had his aim been a trifle better, let's see:
1. Would Reutemann be President of Argentina?
2. Would Prost (with five Championships) still be Powered by Renault?
3. Would Mansell (with three Championships) be a kinder, mellower, less frustrated soul, securely established in Dennis David's Hall of Fame- albeit with a more beautiful and intelligent missus, having finally realized the absolute truth about childhood sweetheart Roseanne?
4. Would Jean Alesi be a SIX time World Champion for Williams?
5. Would fewer cynics be smirking "we told you so" about poor Rubens Barichello's recent clock-cleaning by Schumacher and Coulthard at Imola?
6. Would Martin Brundle actually have won a GP?

7. would Bernie Ecclestone of Brabham have risen to head of FOCA and then to Emperor of the World and Controller of All TV Rights?

Lets not forget the most famous speeding ticket. Ayrton Senna in 1992. After being stopped, the constable walked to the car. He had not had a good look at the driver, and being aware of Mansell mania, he started the conversation with the legendary words "Who do you think you are, Nigel Mansell?" The reply: "No, I'm Ayrton Senna."

But you are the first with your heritage and this means something to me. I have hundreds of QSL cards from these people and I consider them prize posessions. My most prized card is from an old japanese Amateur Taro Yagi the most famous amateur in the world. Well enough of this and back to racing.

He came through my home town, abducted and murdered the daughter of a friend of mine. Terry Walden was a young mother of two. Her heartbroken father never recovered and died just a few years later.
After abducting another young girl in California, he travelled back back to the East Coast and moments before crossing the Canadian border was spotted by a state trooper who struggled with him for Wilder's .357 magnum. The trooper was shot, but managed to shoot Wilder through the heart, or the organ he had in his chest euphemistically called a "heart".
The trooper called my friend and told him in confidence that there would never have been a trial. He was intent on taking him out when the struggle ensued.
Christopher Wilder Bio
Another less violent driver to be incarcerated is Randy Lanier, an IMSA sportscar driver of some note and 1986 Indy 500 Rookie of the Year. He's serving life without parole for his part in a Columbian pot smuggling operation. He was never charged with a violent crime, yet has remained in Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary since 1988 or 1989. I think he went back on a plea bargain deal with the feds, and they made him pay dearly for it. His subsequent appeals have all been denied.
I correspond with him frequently. And I'm sorry to even mention him in the same post as a predator like Wilder. Lanier spends most of his time working out and playing chess in a maximum security unit. After dubious suspicion of a planned escape in 1996, he spent two or three years in solitary confinement.

Ronald Biggs is now detained at Her Majesty's pleasure, having returned to Britain last year. He is effectively terminally ill and was accompanied by his son who is in his late 20s. His son had all sorts of problems remaining in Britain. Obviously made the mistake of entering the country legally. RB's son, if my memory serves me correctly is a qualified doctor.
RB's son took an abnormally long time to qualify, as long as he was recieving an education, RB could not be deported. When an extradition treaty was made between Brazil and Britain, Biggs could not be extradited retroactively.
Bruce Reynolds was on the tele with his Mk1 Lotus Cortina which he used to plan the robbery. On Reynolds conviction in 67, the car was sold by the Crown and was purchased by Colin Chapman.

Christopher Wilder - always reminds me of something. I was living in the San Francisco Bay Area at the time of the manhunt for him, and with their attitude towards Auto Racing - the local papers had huge headlines "Fugitive Race Driver Sought in Killing Spree" and the like and local TV was no better.
Curiously, at the same time, their was a manhunt for a free-lance TV news cameraman who had worked in several states and had been linked to at least two or three murders of women as well...

After Collin Chapman died rumours said he lived under a new identity in Brazil. His involvement in DeLorean's business forced him to do so. Also Chapman had David Thieme's Essex as a sponsor in the early eighties. Now this Thieme had some atmosphere around him as well.

A hip pointer is a bruise to the upper part of your hip. Many muscles, including abdominal muscles, attach at this site. A hip pointer can involve injury to bone and soft tissue.
Hip pointers are caused by a direct blow to the bony part of the pelvis. This commonly occurs in when the pelvis comes into contact with a hard object, like a helmet. It can also occur by taking a hard fall onto the hip.
Risk Factors
Participating in contact sports increases your chance of developing a hip pointer. Football players and hockey players are especially at risk. Hip pointers are also more common while playing basketball and soccer.
Symptoms of a hip pointer include:
- Severe pain
- Tenderness
- Pain with activity
- Swelling
- Bruising
- Soreness
- Muscle spasms
- Decreased range of motion
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. You may be referred to a specialist. An orthopedist focuses on bones and joints. A sports medicine physician focuses on sport-related injuries.
Images, such as x-rays, may need to be taken of structures related to this injury inside your body.
Hip pointers are treated with a variety of options, including:
- Restricting activities to allow the area to heal; this may involve using crutches to keep weight off the hip
- Ice therapy to help relieve swelling
- Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to reduce pain
- Injection of a numbing medication and/or steroid directly into the hip to relieve severe pain
- Physical therapy to help you regain mobility and build muscle strength
Hip pointers occur through direct blows to the affected area. This is often accidental. As a result, not all hip pointers can be prevented. However, make sure to wear proper sports equipment and padding to decrease your chance of any injury.

Stellar pitching helps Surprise top Mesa for AFL title
Rodriguez tosses three scoreless frames for Saguaros before 'pen finishes shutout
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- As home-plate umpire A.J. Johnson called Steven Souza out on strikes for the final out of Saturday's Arizona Fall League Championship Game, the Saguaros converged in the middle of the diamond. They hopped the first-base dugout fence and raced in from the bullpen in right field to form a jumping mass of jubilation behind the pitcher's mound.
Surprise had defeated Mesa, 2-0, at Scottsdale Stadium, winning the franchise's first championship since 1995. But other than center fielder Tyler Naquin's spontaneous decision to take the official championship picture wearing Jorge Alfaro's catcher's mask, the celebration was rather low key. There was some Chipotle, but no trophy -- or Champagne -- waiting for the Saguaros in the clubhouse.
But none of it mattered to them.
"That experience I had right there was the best I've had in baseball so far," left-hander Tim Berry said.
"These kids wanted to win," manager Gary Kendall said. "It's all about development, but they wanted to win this ballgame."
Surprise had relied on its offense throughout the fall as it outslugged opponents en route to a West Division title. Its offense was the league's highest scoring, averaging six runs per game. But, Saturday, it was all about its pitching.
Left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez, ranked No. 84 on MLB.com's Top 100 prospect list, set the tone for Surprise. The Orioles' No. 2 prospect threw three scoreless innings. He struck out four batters and allowed two hits. Following Rodriguez, five Saguaros relievers combined for six scoreless innings.
Mesa's best chance came in the sixth inning when it loaded the bases with one out against Berry, the Orioles' No. 6 prospect. Kris Bryant, who had been awarded the AFL MVP award before the championship game, came to the plate. He got ahead in the count 2-0, but after a visit from catcher Jorge Alfaro and pitching coach Steve Karsay, Berry escaped the jam.
Berry busted Bryant, the Cubs' No. 4 prospect, with an inside fastball and got him to pop out in foul ground to first baseman Travis Shaw. He then struck out C.J. Cron, the Angels' No. 2 prospect and AFL batting champion.
"It was such a bad start to the inning and such a big finish to the inning," Berry said. "I was just glad to get out of there with no runs on the board and give it to Noe [Ramirez] and they took it from there."
Ramirez, Keone Kela and David Goforth finished the game without further drama. The bases-loaded situation in the sixth inning was the only time all game the Solar Sox advanced a runner to third base.
Bryant went 0-for-4 Saturday and came away impressed with the Saguaros' pitching.
"Their pitching was incredible," Bryant said. "Sometimes you just have to tip your cap to the other team. They came through when they needed to."
Surprise scored its first run with two outs in the second inning. Henry Urrutia hit a line drive over Souza's head in center field and cruised into second with a double. Alfaro followed with an RBI single.
The Saguaros added an insurance run in the eighth inning. Jonathan Schoop, the Orioles' No. 4 prospect, led off the inning with a single and moved into scoring position on a sacrifice bunt and a wild pitch. Mookie Betts, the Red Sox No. 16 prospect, drove him in with a single.
Urrutia was the only Saguaro with multiple hits. He finished the game 2-for-3 with two doubles.
The AFL is typically dominated by hitters, but two runs were enough in the championship game. Naquin said the Saguaros pitching staff has been up to the task all season.
"Seems like our pitchers, they always step up in the big, big situation," Naquin said. "We have a great lineup, but if you look at our arms on paper, I'd put them above anybody else's."
The combination of the Saguaros offense and their strong bullpen allowed them to be one of the best teams in the league at coming from behind. While Surprise didn't need a comeback in the championship game, Kendall said he would most remember his team's perseverance game after game.
"A lot of our wins were come from behind wins where we were down by a lot of runs, four or five runs sometimes," Kendall said. "We just never quit.
"There's a bunch of winning players out there and that's probably what I'm going to remember the most."

Funny story, actually. Quite recently I told a friend of mine how and why xkcd was going downhill and how it was white-knight-esque pseudo-feminist. That was one day before he came out with 714. I was so happy the moment I read that strip, because of the i-told-you-so routine that was coming my friend's way soon. He ended up greeting me with "Damnit, person. You might be right." that day. Great fun.
Anyway, the reason I am telling this story is that today he was actually the one that lead me to read the strip when I did. He MSN'd me today saying "Son of a bitch", "Why must you ruin things for me.". I like to imagine he put a period instead of a question mark because he knows how much I like making people, specifically him, suffer. He also thought the author of xkcd was named "Rupert Murdock", which is actually kind of a badass name.
But my actual point was that keeping these words in mind, I went to the comic. It's hard not to be biased when you're writing a hate blog, it's even harder if your friend tells you something is shit ahead of time - but it's not even that. I looked at the comic. I read it, went back to him, said "I don't get it", went back to the comic, read it again, and asked him "wait, is this actually the joke? Inspector Gadget has a lot of crazy shit 'under his belt'? That's it? That was a joke in the show too, Randall just made it dirty". Ok that may be paraphrased to insert that hilarious pun.
But yes, that is it, my friend confusedly reassured me. Huh. Well. That's not funny.
I'm going to go more in-depth on the actual joke, but I wanna talk about something else first
That doesn't really look like inspector gadget. a big part about inspector gadget was not only his goofy behaviour, but also his looks. Notice that if you take away the face and the hair, you aren't left with much of his original personality or charme. Could randall possibly have picked a more retarded choice in terms of his comic gimmick? The point of a comic is that you don't spell everything out, you show it. Your characters not having faces does not make this easier. Randall did kind of a good job at making him look around and showing that no one is there, but only considering the arbitrary restriction he set himself.
The point of that is not to prove that I'm a shitty artist, my point is that faces bring a whole new atmosphere to the comic, and allow randall to express himself better. But since you will all just bitch at me that this is his style (this is a criticism of exactly that, by the way - his style) and that it's just something I have to accept, let's move on.
I'm not done with the art, though. Why is he shown so far away in the last two panels? There's no walls, no anything. It makes you think he shrinked. Randall, we're not asking you to draw us an oil panting in the background of your comics, but please, at least draw a line that shows us that your characters are not constantly in limbo. Also, I get that you want to show that he's alone, but too small. You have to realize that since you've drawn nothing, the borders of the panel are the first possible boundary of the room. What this means is that Gadget is standing in a hugeass room (both in height and width). The fact that it is empty is usually not a big deal since your stick figures are closeup, and their surroundings are unimportant - in this part however it plays a big role since the idea is that inspector gadget is all alone, but alive. You're getting one of these points accross.
ALSO, what's up with his arms not being down? That's weird, man. He probably realized he drew him too small to pull that off. So that makes it two points for bigger inspector.
Doesn't that look far less distracting and better than xkcd's version? Yes it does, shut up. Where's YOUR criticism of xkcd? What gives YOU the right to criticize my criticism?
Well, that leaves one thing. The humor. Sigh. Here's the thing, Inspector gadget was meant to be entertaining, and the fact that he had whatever the fuck seemed convenient in his hat was a joke of the show. What randall did was essentially a conversation I imagine some high schoolers are having somewhere right now. "Dude! What if Inspector Gadget had like naked chicks in his hat so he can look at them whenever he wants" "THAT IS AWESOME! HIGH FIVE! I wish I had naked chicks in my hat, man. Inspector Gadget ROCKS". We've established that it's a joke of the show, so what did Randall do? He took something that didn't belong (as it was a children's show) and mixed it with an unfitting concept. Actually, it's not like he showed an emo kid taking care of orphans, he just took something innocent and made it dirty. Rule 34, basically. Except it's not really very imaginative or funny. Hell, even if we completely ignore the bluntness of the joke, he still just showed a dude talking. It's not he even made an effort to at least surprise the reader through action (Maybe by inspector gadget pulling a dildo out of his hat or some shit. It still wouldn't be funny, but it'd at least be a little more creative than just saying something stupid.)
And then we have the alt text. A 2girls1cup joke? Really? Again? Actually, not joke. Just reference. The difference is that he thinks he can get away with just mentioning something, instead of deriving humor from it. LAME.
But enough about the comic, let's see what the forumites have to say
"go go gadget decaying comic"
"...Well congratulations, you've made Inspector Gadget unfunny and disturbing. I didn't even think that was possible. Go go gadget anti-comic!
It's like anti-hero, you see, except not at all interesting. And gone gone gadget repetitive lame joke intro phrase."
This, basically. While half of the forumites thought it would be hilarious to just say "go go gadget" and then a vague reference to the comic or anything really (implicitly giving randall credit for saying something unusual after go go gadget), a lot of them were also disappointed with the comic. Understandable.
"Just gonna say, xkcd been going downhill recently. Maybe it's just me, but it has a really different feel to it..."
"Point of order: "Lesbians doing it" is an event or possibly fantasy, not a "gadget."
A video camera and cup would be a pair of gadgets, but I don't think they ever appeared in the cartoon. (Binoculars may come in handy if his legs go off instead)."
This guy is funnier than the comic. That's really not saying much, though.
"Funny comic, awful (but predictable) mouseover."
I'm slightly uneasy about both the fact that he liked the comic and that he PREDICTED a 2girls1cup joke at the mere mention of lesbian sex. Poor guy.
"Go go gadget people getting butthurt over a difference of opinion on what is/isn't funny"
I like how this guy calls a bunch of people who just said they didn't like the comic or that xkcd was getting worse butthurt, because he was getting "butthurt" over a bunch of people not liking his awesome favorite webcomic. I'm guessing he doesn't know about this site.

At least some content in this article is derived from information featured in the latest update of Pottermore. As such, spoilers will be present within the article. Please take care when reading this article if you have not yet been through the latest update.
- Rubeus Hagrid: "What're you doin' here? Get outta my house!"
- Lucius Malfoy: "My dear man, please believe me, I have no pleasure at all in being inside your — er — d'you call this a house?"
- — Lucius Malfoy shows disgust towards the meagerness of Hagrid's cabin.[src]
Hagrid's Hut[1] served as a home to Rubeus Hagrid (and some of his pets, including Fang) during his years as gatekeeper and teaching at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry[2] It is a small wooden cabin located outside of Hogwarts Castle, on the edge of the Forbidden Forest.[3] Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley were amongst the Hogwarts students who regularly visited Hagrid in his hut.
Inside the hut
There is only one room inside, with hams and pheasants hanging from the ceiling. There is also a fireplace where, most of the time, a copper kettle is used to boil water. In the corner stands a massive bed with a patchwork quilt over it.[2] Sometimes, when Hagrid does not use his personal belongings, including his pink umbrella, his mokeskin coat and his crossbow, he placed those items inside the hut. Other items found inside the hut are ingredients for foods and items used by him in teaching the Care of Magical Creatures.
The 1991–1992 school year was Harry Potter's first year in Hogwarts, along with Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. They visited Hagrid's hut occasionally and in April of 1992, the trio saw a dragon, a Norwegian Ridgeback, for the first time which hatched from an egg. Hagrid named it Norbert.
On the same night, they noticed Malfoy sneaking from the window of Hagrid's hut and listening to their discussion. The four students received detention for being out of bed late at night. As punishment, they had to go to the Forbidden Forest with Hagrid. Argus Filch escorted the four from the castle to Hagrid's cabin and they split into two groups.
Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge and Draco's father, Lucius Malfoy along with Prof. Dumbledore visited the hut to discuss the incident of the re-opening of the Chamber of Secrets. The Ministry decide to send Hagrid to Azkaban prison. They assumed that Hagrid was the one who re-opened the Chamber. Unnoticed by the Minister and Draco's father, Harry and Ron hid inside the Invisibility cloak and were present in Hagrid's hut. Before Hagrid's departure, he instructed Ron and Harry to "...follow the spiders." and reminded them to feed Fang.
- Headmaster Dumbledore revisited the hut to inform Hagrid that he will replace Prof. Kettleburn after he retired in teaching the Care of Magical Creatures subject. This job was one Hagrid had always wanted.
- Cornelius Fudge, still Minister for Magic at the time, revisited the hut, now with Walden Macnair to attend the execution of Buckbeak the Hippogriff after the creature had injured Draco Malfoy's arm along with Dumbledore and an elderly member from the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures.
- Shortly after the Harry and Hermione from the future saved Buckbeak, and Hagrid and the rest headed to Hogwarts Castle, they and Buckbeak headed back to Hagrid's empty cabin as a place to hide for their own safety after Remus Lupin transformed into his werewolf form until it was safe to return to the Forbidden Forest.
In one lesson of Care of Magical Creatures subject, Hagrid introduced to the Gryffindor and Slytherin students his newly bred creatures called Blast-Ended Skrewts in front of his hut. Hundred of these creatures were placed in several open wooden crates. They looked like deformed, shell-less lobsters, horribly pale and slimy-looking, with legs sticking out in very odd places and no visible heads, about six inches long, crawling over one another, bumping blindly into the sides of the boxes. They gave off a very powerful smell of rotting fish. Draco Malfoy questioned Hagrid about the purposes of those creatures.[3]
In the first quarter of the 1995–1996 school year at Hogwarts, The Ministry appointed Dolores Umbridge as the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor. Prof. Dumbledore sent Hagrid in search of other Giants. When he came back to Hogwarts, Dolores Umbridge visited Hagrid's hut to ask Hagrid where he had been and to him ask what sort of mission he had been sent on. As Umbridge had a strong dislike of Half-breeds, including Half-giants, she wanted to sack Hagrid from Hogwarts. Umbridge succeeded in doing so when she became headmistress (replacing Prof. Dumbledore as Headmaster). Near the end of the school year, Hagrid was forcibly removed from the Hogwarts grounds by Umbridge with the assistance of some Ministry of Magic employees, including the Auror John Dawlish. However, upon Umbridge's removal from Hogwarts, and Dumbledore's reinstatement as Headmaster, Hagrid was welcomed back to his post of Care of Magical Creatures teacher and Keeper of Keys and Grounds.
Before the end of the 1996–1997 school year, Death Eaters attempted to penetrate the walls of Hogwarts Castle.
Professor Snape escorted the Death Eaters to fulfil the mission appointed to him. After he cast the Killing Curse on Professor Dumbledore, Harry chased him and the Death Eaters, who were now joined by Draco Malfoy, until they reached the grounds outside of the castle. They continually fought until Death Eater Thorfinn Rowle yelled, "Incendio!" Then Harry heard an explosive bang and a dancing orange light spilled over all of them: Hagrid's cabin was on fire. Hagrid was forced to rescue his dog Fang who had been trapped inside the hut. The Death Eaters then disapparated. Hagrid together with Harry used the Aguamenti Charm to put out the flames in Hagrid's hut.[4]
Hagrid's Hut was repaired after the fire. Later in the same school year, Hagrid held a "Support Harry Potter" party in his hut which forced Hagrid into hiding.
Behind the scenes
- In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and all films afterwards, both the shape and location of Hagrid's hut were changed from its portrayal from the first two films.
- In the first two films, the hut is made up of only one room and is located close to the entrance to the Bell Towers and Greenhouses. In the third film, the hut now consists of two rooms and is located down the hill to the back to the castle, about half way between the Entrance Gates and the Stone Circle and now has a pumpkin patch next to it.
- One possible explanation could be that Hagrid was promoted to new bigger living quarters closer to the castle after getting the Care of Magical Creatures job, enabling him to perform both his teaching and grounds-keeping duties easily. It would also give students a safer place to take lessons, away from the forest.
- There is an exact replica of Hagrid's hut built in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida.[5]
- It is Bellatrix Lestrange who burns down Hagrid's hut during the film version of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince with a Nonverbal spell. In the novel, the hut is burned by Thorfinn Rowle.
- A Special Feature on the 2-Disc DVD of the film version of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone allows viewers to tour the inside of Hagrid's hut.
- In Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, it is stated that the hut is made of wood, but in the films, it is made of stone.
- Hagrid has a garden in front of his hut where he grows pumpkins for the Hallowe'en feast.
- In Harry Potter Page to Screen: The Complete Filmmaking Journey, production designer Stuart Craig revealed that the appearance and location of the hut as seen from the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and subsequent films was closer to his original design for the hut, which had been compromised for the first two films due to the scenes being filmed in a small patch of land outside the studio, rather than on location in Scotland.
- In PS1 game from Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Rubeus Hagrid's cabin leads to the Gargoyle Gate. In the PS1 game from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the Gargoyle Gate leads to Rubeus Hagrid's cabin.

Other Proposed Uses
Ornithine alpha-ketoglutarate (OKG) is manufactured from two amino acids, ornithine and glutamine. These amino acids are called "conditionally essential." This means that ordinarily one does not need to consume them in food because the body can manufacture them from other nutrients. However, during periods of severe stress, such as recovery from major trauma or severe illness, the body may not be able to manufacture them in sufficient quantities, and may require an external source.
Ornithine and glutamine are thought to have anabolic effects, meaning that they stimulate the body to build muscle and other tissues. These amino acids also appear to have anti-catabolic effects. This is a closely related but slightly different property; ornithine and glutamine appear to block the effect of hormones that break down muscle and other tissues (catabolic hormones).
Evidence suggests that use of OKG (and related amino acids) may offer benefits for hospitalized patients recovering from serious illness or injury.
Based on these findings (and a leap of logic), OKG has been extensively marketed as a sports supplement for helping to build muscle. However, the fact that OKG helps seriously ill people build muscle does not mean that it will have the same effect in athletes, and there is no direct evidence to indicate that it does.
The amino acids that make up OKG are found in high-protein foods such as meat, fish, and dairy products. Supplements are available in tablet or pill form.
Therapeutic Dosages
A typical dose of OKG is 5 to 25 g daily. It may be necessary to increase dosage slowly to avoid digestive upset.
Therapeutic Uses
OKG may play a role in the treatment of individuals recovering from severe physical trauma.
When the body experiences severe trauma—such as injury, major surgery , or burns—it goes into what is called a catabolic state. In this temporary condition, the body tends to tear itself down rather than build itself up. The catabolic hormone cortisone plays a major role in inducing catabolism. In the catabolic state, the body fails to utilize protein found in the diet, and high levels of protein breakdown products appear in the urine. Calcium levels in urine also rise, as bones begin to weaken.
The opposite of a catabolic state is an anabolic state, in which the body tends to build itself up. Studies of hospitalized patients recovering from severe illnesses or injuries suggest that OKG blocks the catabolic effects of cortisone and also directly stimulates anabolic activity. 4-10 It is not clear how OKG accomplishes this. It may directly affect the enzymes involved in hormone metabolism. Another possibility is that OKG may increase levels of growth hormone (an anabolic hormone), at least when it is taken in high enough doses (12 mg a day or more). 11-13 It has also been suggested that OKG increases insulin release, which would have anabolic effects; however, this has been disputed. 14
Based on these findings, OKG has become popular as a bodybuilding supplement. However, there are no reported double-blind studies of OKG alone as a sports supplement. One study evaluated a combined arginine and ornithine supplement and found some evidence of benefit. 15
OKG and a related substance ornithine-l-aspartate have shown some promise for hepatic encephalopathy, a life-threatening complication of liver cirrhosis . 16,17
