Scenery catches fire at school
EDWARDSVILLE - Firefighters were called to Edwardsville High School at about 11:15 a.m. Saturday after a piece of scenery caught fire. There were no injuries and the fire did not cause any damage, but smoke filled the auditorium and the commons/kitchen area.
District 7 performing arts technical support staff were in the school auditorium building a set for the school's upcoming production of "The Odyssey" when the fire started.
An email sent to The Telegraph from Edwardsville City Administrator Ben Dickmann stated that firefighters were forced to enter the building with self-contained breathing apparatus tanks and masks because of the smoke density.
There is no official cause of the fire yet but construction workers, including welders, were at the school working in the same areas.
According to a press release from the Edwardsville Community Unit School District No. 7 office, staff and students in the building rehearsing at the time were evacuated and evaluated by fire department medics. Superintendent Ed Hightower said a professional cleaning service was contacted to assist with the cleanup efforts.
"We anticipate that all the smoke will dissipate by Monday, Oct. 31, and that school will resume as usual," Hightower said in the press release.
Drama Club rehearsals will resume next week as planned.

"Lucky" Girl!
Many of you were introduced to 'Lucky' back in the spring and summer. She was a heifer calf orphaned right after birth and hence was raised by us humans! Yes, the boys carted many bottles daily to this lil' one. Well, although she was a bit smaller than the other calves she faired aok! I don't think she will be leaving our place anytime soon ... especially if our boys have anything to say about it! They are rather quick to point out to their Dad that he did promise if they looked after her and fed her ... they got to keep her!!! With that being said ... she was out enjoying another mild day (+5C again!) grazing with the Mama's!

Lately, I've been dwelling back and forth about where I draw the line when engaging in different social customs while traveling. For the past two and a half years my eating habits have gradually evolved from pescatarian to vegetarian to vegan. When bouncing around this is not always easy to maintain. Especially not in a country where responses to me saying I'm vegetarian include "don't worry, we have chicken" or "is that in Europe?".
Is killing an animal that's lived a life in the wild the same as killing one that's lived its whole life enslaved in an agricultural prison? I don't know.
I've been loosening my habits a bit eating eggs and occasionally dairy as I've been staying in places where I can glance over at the chicken or cows freely prancing around going about their day (and at times, they are quite busy). I don't see a problem with this. But I encountered a moral dilemma when I was invited to dinner with a family who did not have much money. Zero in fact. Wild hare was on the menu. I ate it but not without conflicting emotions. Again, where do we draw the line? The scale can very quickly tip into the disrespectful space.
This kept gnawing at me as I was also invited to a bull fighting show. I'd never been to one and thought to myself it'd be good to see and better understand it before starting to develop too strong feelings about it.
The bull had a red band fastened to its forehead with the equivalent of 10 USD snapped underneath. The goal for the fighters is to retrieve the money and thereby end the game. Oh, but low and behold, this is only done after the fighters indulge in 4-5 cans of beer. Dangerous doesn't even begin to describe it and accidents happen frequently.
Again, a moral dilemma. I could see the stress and confusion in the bulls' eyes and was very uncomfortable the whole time before deciding to leave.
Should I not have went? Turned down the invitation? Explained why I'm opposed to this? Was it egoistic of me to go just to "experience and understand more of said culture" or as to not be disrespectful toward the invitation? Maybe. I don't know. But what I do know though is that it won't be a repeat. Once was enough.

The report found that the majority of children on Medical Assistance are enrolled in managed care, but only 42.8 percent of these children had an annual dental visit in 2009. These services included periodic oral exams and diagnostic and preventive care, such as fillings and fluoride treatment. One main obstacle to low-income children receiving adequate dental health services is a shortage of dentists who will accept Medical Assistance, say authors of the report.
Medical Assistance covered more than 1 million, or 35.5 percent, of all children in Pennsylvania in 2009. In 2008, Medical Assistance spent about $124.9 million on dental services, or $109 per enrolled child.
According to the report, Pennsylvania dentists may be reluctant to participate in Medical Assistance because of reimbursement rates, which are low compared to other Medicaid programs nationally and are set at about 53.2 percent of regular dental service fees. However, Pennsylvania recently implemented a number of initiatives to improve dental provider participation in Medical Assistance and recipient access to services, such as creating the ACCESS Plus Dental Care/Disease Management Program.
"We found that only 26 percent of practicing dentists in Pennsylvania were reimbursed by Medical Assistance in 2009," said Judith R. Lave, Ph.D., PMPC director and professor of health economics, University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health. "Medical Assistance may need to re-examine reimbursement practices to ensure services are being appropriately covered. This could help encourage more dentists to participate in the program and improve access to care for low-income children. We recognize the state's financial problems and are concerned that the current budget crisis may lead to pressure to reverse the program improvements."
This report presents data from the Pennsylvania Department of Public Welfare concerning Medical Assistance enrollment, d

When Lorna Cloutier was in grade 10, her Burnaby middle school opened its industrial arts program to girls. The result was a drafting class made up entirely of female students that year. Lorna enjoyed the drafting and her teacher told her she was good at it, so she enrolled in drafting again when she got to senior high. That year, she was the only girl in the class. She wasn't deterred. "Until that point I was going to be a teacher," she remembers with a laugh.
Today, Lorna is a project coordinator with Fred Welsh Mechanical and has been working in the mechanical contracting field on and off for almost two decades. Going into the construction industry didn't feel unconventional to her because when she was growing up, her mother was always building things and her uncle was a small contractor. "It just sort of appealed to me."
An older sister went to BCIT so Lorna had access to the school's program calendar. She decided to do the two-year building technology program where she found she enjoyed working with mechanical systems design.
Her first foray into the mechanical field was as an Estimator but finds project coordinating more fulfilling because she stays with a project for the duration. "Once we get the job, you see it go from the ground to the finish of the project."
Mechanical contracting is challenging but satisfying work and should be considered by more young women, Lorna says. Women are particularly good at project management, she adds. "Females are better at it because they're more detail-oriented." While some of the old guard didn't like women in the industry, Lorna says she always felt accepted in her workplaces.
Young women still need a bit of a toughness to withstand the testosterone-dominated field: "Sometimes guys don't think there are women there and their language might not be the best." But Lorna says even that's changing with the attrition of outdated attitudes. Lorna also advises young women get technical training, "so they know how a system goes together."
It's a well-paying career with lots of work and Lorna recommends it for more women. Mechanical contractors would do well to offer work placements to young women, she suggests, in order to attract more women into the field. "It's just a matter of making them more aware of it."

Happy birthday.
Exactly 8 years ago it was the kick off for the new era, the one which we have been enjoying so far, 8 years ago Lehman Brother collapsed and few days after, confidence in drybulk shipping vanished. We are still wondering where to start to look at to find this shy confidence.
We may start to look at scrapping ships activity and newbuildings' one.
Scrapping : according to BMTI, 312 bulkers have been scrapped so far in 2016, with respectively
- Units being Panamaxes (weighting 29% of the ttl demolition)
- Units being Capes (weighting 23% of the ttl demolition)
- Units being Handies (weighting 23% of the ttl demolition)
- Units being supras (weighting 20% of the ttl demolition)
The 5% remaining ? must be either coasters or ghost ships.
Going forward in BMTI report, units going for scrap being reported are all 29yrs old or older. Not sure scrapping only old buckets -which anyway no ones want to charter nowadays – will help the market to recover.
But looking on the other side on the newbuilding activity it's looking quite promising (for those of us who will be able to go through this market). According to BIMCO, «2016 looks to set record for the lowest newbuilding contracts in more than 20 years ». Going a bit in details, Bimco,Clarksons figures are showing on the CGT (CGT being Compensated Gross Tonnage is the unit of measurement developped for measuring the level of shipbuilding output and is calculated by applying a conversion factor, which reflects the amount of work required to build a ship, to a vessel's gross registered tonnage).
CGT contracted around the world :
- In 1996 17Mio
- In 2016 less than 10Mio
- At his highest peak, in 2007 it was more than 90Mio
- 2006 was touch above 70
- In 2013 about 60Mio was ordered
- In 2014 about 43Mio was ordered
- In 2015 about 38Mio was ordered.
If someone can remind me what made owners/investors believing the crisis was over and drybulk market was in need for newbuildings in past 3 years, please to get your input.
Going forward on these figures, it means 2 things
- drybulk market will still suffer for too much ships being delivered at sea in the couple of years to come
- The hot potato is on the shipyards. And we are not protected against Japanese, South Koreans and Chinese government decisions to saves hundreds of thousands of jobs by cutting their prices down, to keep the yards busy. If such scenario is showing up, we can be sure owners and investors will jump on the bargain, eventhough they don't need for new ships.
Another data which is not shown is out of the CGT ordered from 2013 to 2015, how many ordered have been simply cancelled or delivery being postponed ?
On the commodity side, as everybody is looking for new opportunities and new routes, it might be a wise thing to be done by Owners to start to reconsider their Iran calling policies for example. I could read on Bloomberg that Iran might need to import at least 1million tons of high Gluten Wheat. 1 million, on the scale of the Billions of tons transported by seaborne every year is not much but trust everything which was considered being a « niche » or a « no go » market/area shall be reconsidered quite closely. Willing to read more ? here it is: iranian bread!
On the chartering side, from ECSA to WMED grains stems seems to be more competitive when suitable for Handymaxes rather than Supras. Today's in BDI fixtures we can read this 53kdwt build 2002, being fixed as follow on voyage basis : Mv ''Elpida S' 2002 40000 /10 corn Up River /Oran 24 /28 Sep $19 .50 fio 9000 satpmshex/8000 fhex for accnt Louis Dreyfus. Running quickly the tct equivalent, this is very close to the s9 route on the BSI as shown yesterday ie 4'829usd dely Wafr. Knowing this route in today's index is gaining close to 100pts. When taking same stem but calculated on a handymax, basis the handy index on which we put on tce 6'000 daily (while the HS3 on index type is at 5372), couple of USD can be gained (theorically) on the freight.
From Santos, sugar charterers are reported seeing $15.50/mt on a 35'000mt stem from Santos to Tunisia. Once again this 15.50 shall slightly outperform the HS3 knowing of course perfect ship for this stem will be either a Supra or a handymax ship if no restrictions applies all ends.
Finally, a 34kdwt being reported done ex continent to Morocco at 7'000 usd daily seems to us a bit on the high side, unless charterers were stucked and needed for a spot ship and had to get their ideas up to attract owners. For the sake of running the voyage equivalent, assuming it's barley, vsl's loaded with 30'000mt from Rouen with 10'000x to Casablanca at 5'000x the freight on voyage basis is around 12.25usdpmt. Still to morocco, few stems seen in our circular will be interesting to follow –
- ADM out with 30,000 / 10 WHEAT BLACK SEA / MOROCCO SEP 28 / OCT 02 8,000 / 5,000
- Acct intergrain s.a. 25,000 mt/10 pct bulk wheat stw abt45 wog 1-2sb nika tera, ukraine / 1-2sb agadir, morocco laycan october 08-12, 2016 8000mt sshex eiu (fri 17-mon08) / 5000mt sshex eiu (fri 17-mon08)
Black Sea is said to be cooling down a bit, but we can notice both charterers ADM and Intergrains cargoes are do be done for very end Sept or early October. Getting out as early could be a signal they want to avoid being still open with a dead spot requirement and Owners taking advantage of it.
As usual, please do not hesitate to react, comment or contact me on my twitter account @jeromesorrel for comments, discussions sharing views.

A few days ago I posted about the Glittery Cuttlebug Technique and couldn't remember where I saw it. I am happy to let you know that the techniques came from Sarah Bevard's delicious blog Craftaholics Anonymous. Thank you for the inspiration, Sarah!
Our techniques are just slightly different -- hers is easier than mine, so try them both out!

Avid slot machine players have a lot of trade secrets that they believe lead them to higher payouts. A few of these secrets may actually be diamonds in the rough, but the majority of them are just slot machine myths that really have no actual effect on your outcome. After all, slot machines produce payouts in a randomly generated sequence, and there is little you can do to beat the house.
Five Slot Machine Myths
Casinos place their loose slot machines in certain locations: Many slot players believe that the casino always places their loose slot machines near the cashier, the door, the poker table, or another hot spot. As a player, you have no way of knowing where a loose slot machine is, and chances are they have been placed around the casino randomly anyway.
If a slot machine has not paid out in a while, it is going too soon: While it is true that slot machines must pay out a certain percentage of the time, it does not mean that percentage has to follow any sort of order. Slot machines pay out on a randomly generated basis and one machine could go weeks before dropping a big payout.
Weekends are the best time for slot machine payouts: In truth, a casino may tailor some of their games to times when they can expect the most players, but this is not the case with slot machines. Since slot machine payouts are generated at random, it really does not matter what time you are in the casino.
Slot machine payouts can be changed instantly by the casino: Slot machines are controlled by computer chips that work with the casino's central computer system. While in theory, a casino could tighten or loosen a slot machine, it takes more effort then you think. Casinos must also abide by gaming laws that prevent them from cutting off a machine just because it is paying out.
An out of service slot machine just hit a big payout: Modern slot machines work like computers, and like computers, they can break. Just because you see a service needed sign on a slot machine, does not mean that slot machine was paying highly. Many players take this to heart and avoid the machines near the out-of-service slot for fear that they will pay less then the machine that was "taken down" by the casino. An out-of-service sign means just that, out of service.

It has emerged that Tranmere Rovers striker Dale Jennings is poised to move to German giants Bayern Munich…
The Bundesliga titans have reportadly bid £650k for the young forward and a deal looks imminent.
The move could be a fairy tale for the teenager who was released by Liverpool as a school boy.
Jennings shone last season for his League One club scoring six goals in 29 appearances including a brace against the MK Dons in September.
Jennings was voted League One Apprentice of the Year at the Football League awards.
He also won the Tranmere's 'Young player of the season' award as voted for by Tranmere Rovers fans.

Stratford: Lighthouse auction set for Wednesday
STRATFORD — All of those gaily painted lighthouses that you've seen up and down Main Street will be auctioned off Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2017, at a charity event to benefit the Stratford Arts Commission.
The "Light the Way" event will take place from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at Vazzano's Four Seasons restaurant, 337 Kenyon St.
"We seem to have a lot of people from all over interested in getting a lighthouse," said Richard Fredette, commission chairman.
Artists had to submit their designs, and a jury of their peers selected which artists would get a lighthouse to paint. About 80 artists in all put forth ideas.
The auction event is being organized by Michelle Genuario and Aubrey Booska, who co-chair the Stratford Street Sculpture Committee, a subgroup of the commission.
Two years ago, the sculpture group staged "Share a Chair" in which 20 benches were fancifully painted by local artists and auctioned off. This raised more than $10,000 that funded scholarships for graduating seniors at Stratford and Bunnell high schools and teacher mini-grants.
The 20 fiberglass resin lighthouses are fashioned to look like the Stratford Point Lighthouse, on the eastern tip of Lordship. It was built in 1899 and it's one of many "sparkplug" lighthouses that were constructed in that era and it's one of the earliest prefabricated cylindrical cast-iron lighthouses in the nation.
Fredette said that those who are interested in bidding on a lighthouse should show up at Vazzano's. Admission is $25 per person.

Star of the Month for January 2013!
Posted on Jan 07, 2013 by jronchetto
Congratuations to Miss "Gracie Ruth" and the O'Connell Family!
As star of the month, Gracie will be featured here as well as our Facebook page and have a special place of honor on our Star Wall in the lobby.
Here is what Gracie Ruth's family says about her:
-Gracie came to us with her name at 6 months old. We added the name Ruth because she was given to us by Aunt Ruth.
-Gracie loves anything in the form of a treat- Especially bacon strips! Treat was one of the first words she learned. She will even dance for a treat.
-Gracie is our friend and companion. She keeps us company, warm at night, and loves us unconditionally. She traves all over with us, has warmed the hearts of many at the airports and my husband has declared her a "chick magnet".
-It was fun to watch Gracie have full out wrestling matches with our daughter's cat, Sebastian. They would wrestle, play, and chase ech other all over the house. Then they would curl up together and take a nap.
-Gracie's favorite thing to do is sleep all day under a pillow on the bed. She alsoloves to g on a walk to get the mail. If you mention the word "mail" she is out the door!
Here is what Gracie says about her family: "My human companions love me so much that they spoil me endlessly. I have the life of a Queen!"

Childhood is a special stage of life! It's a time of discovery, play, wonder and fun for the child, and for parents, this period can trigger a sense of worry as they will constantly strive to ensure the health and happiness of the child. 'child. To help parents through this period, here are the 10 things that make kids happier by science.
Happiness is a mental or emotional state of well-being that can be defined, among other things, by positive or pleasurable emotions ranging from happiness to intense joy. For many parents, raising happy children is a sign of parental success. But all too often, we think that happiness is getting what you want. Lasting happiness is actually much more complicated, but much more rewarding. And yes, you can greatly increase the chances that your child will be happy, just by the way you raise him.
Here are 10 scientifically proven tips to make a child happy:
1. Let your children play:
The priority of a child is to play. Yes, a child will end up with homework, extracurricular activities and so on, but you have to give him the opportunity to have fun, from his youngest age to teenage years.
Peter Gray, a child psychologist and Boston College professor, says children learn the most important lessons in the lives of other children, not adults. Let them play!
2. Do not discuss sensitive topics in front of your children:
The brains of children grow at an extraordinary rate during early childhood. When he sees and hears adults talking about their problems with uncertainty, the psychological state of the child can be negatively affected, which can make him worried and unstable.
Children should never hear the stressful conversations of adults.
3. Do not compare your children to others:
The pressure to succeed in today's society can push parents to inculcate an early sense of competitiveness, and some adults do so by comparing them to other children. Sometimes adults also emphasize desirable personality traits in another child, hoping to replicate them in the other. This is a completely false and scornful approach for the child.
4. Teach your children the benefits of negative emotions:
The children all have moments of anger, fear and sadness. Confronting and expressing these feelings is a great way for the child to develop.
Dr. John Gottman, of the University of Washington, cites the popular tendency of adults to tackle the perceived "bad behavior" of a child by inflicting punishment. A better way to manage and benefit from this situation is to recognize the behavior by teaching the child that everyone is experiencing negative emotions, and to find ways to teach the child how to manage their emotions. constructively.
5. Acknowledge the efforts of your children:
The child will reach the age when he knows he must work hard to move forward. It is therefore important to recognize when the child is trying to do something.
Dr. Carol S. Dweck, from Stanford, is sending a message to parents asking them to focus on the process in which the child engages to complete a task. It is important for a child that adults recognize their efforts.
6. Valorize family traditions:
Having family traditions and valuing them is a great way to ensure the child's stability which is an important aspect of his development.
7. Let your children take risks:
Children need some supervision, but adults can do too much by watching their every move. However, this overprotection is counterproductive for the development of the child. A study published in the Journal of Psychologists and Counselors in Schools states that parents' excessive attention to their children prevents them from developing the resistance and maturity necessary for life.
8. Empower your children:
Teaching your child to look after his or her room or to do chores is one of the best ways to empower a child and make them independent and ready to face life.
9. Create happy memories with your children:
In a multi-experiment study conducted by two Harvard professors, adults who recalled good childhood memories seem to invoke an increased sense of moral purity. These participants showed altruism and maturity compared to those who had no happy memories.
10. Be happy first:
Children learn by what they see and hear, by the best or the worst. If an adult has positive behavior, the child is more likely to do the same.

Melbourne Victory head coach Jeff Hopkins praised his team's spirit after its stunning 2-1 Derby win over City on Sunday.
Victory had to come from behind at Epping Stadium after a Laura Alleway own goal just after the hour-mark.
It did so thanks to another screamer from Melina Ayres and Christina Gibbons' dramatic 86th-minute winner.
Hopkins said his team was finding the belief it needed.
"I think if you look at the whole of the game, the way that we approached the game, we were very positive, we had a game plan," he said.
"I've got to give credit to the spirit of the players most probably. You go 1-0 behind against a very, very good side and we didn't stop believing.
"That's what we've talked about over the last few weeks, self-belief, after last season it's taken a bit of time to get there but we talked about it all week, all last week as well, we need to believe in ourselves a little bit more.
"That was a real test for us, going 1-0 down against City, a team that can not only dominate games but can dominate possession so it was going to be hard for us.
"But credit to the sprit of the players, they didn't give up, they stuck to the game plan and kept going."
Ayres, 18, produced another moment of magic, her 35-yard stunner helping Victory back into the game.
Hopkins praised the teenage attacker, saying Ayres was among those believing more in her abilities.
"I love working with her. She wants to learn, she wants to get better," he said.
"I'm not sure if the wide position is her best position but at the moment she's prepared to play there and do a job for the team.
"She's one of the ones most probably that maybe hasn't got the same belief playing in the W-League about her ability as she does in the WNPL.
"Again, the last couple of weeks we've said to her, 'Back yourself, have a go' and last week you saw what happened there and another fantastic goal again this week for us."

The UK Patent Box regime has been hit by criticism from other EU nations (particularly Germany) since its introduction in April 2013. It looks like George Osborne has finally heeded to pressure at the most recent G20 conference and agreed a compromise agreement to tighten up some of the rules around this attractive UK tax relief.
It appears that the UK Patent Box – currently offering a 10% corporation tax rate on worldwide profits generated from qualifying patents – will be revamped into a new Patent Box incentive that is more closely aligned with the jurisdiction of the underlying economic risk e.g. the underlying R&D activities. There have been concerns that international groups could benefit from the UK Patent Box for intellectual property registered in the UK whilst R&D activities might be carried out in other nation states.
Changes we expect are as follows:
- The current (more generous) Patent Box regime will be closed to new entrants from June 2016
- The current Patent Box regime will be phased out by June 2021
- A new Patent Box (2.0) will be introduced from June 2016 with tighter rules likely around the underlying R&D being carried out in the UK
So if you've elected into the Patent Box by June 2016, it looks like you will be 'in' for a further 5 years whilst new entrants will be barred
We expect to hear more concrete detail in the Autumn Statement on 3 December 2014 but companies should be considering now how they might benefit from the current – more widely drawn – Patent Box regime.
It looks like you have until June 2016 to act – although preparations are likely to be necessary way in advance of this date e.g. if a patent is to be granted (as necessary under the current regime)!

prosthesis for hills / uneven ground
kam posted a topic in Prosthetics and RelatedI haven't posted here for, um, years :) . Anyway, I moved to Seattle earlier this year and the hills are making walking difficult. I also have gradually been wearing my "good" leg into the ground, and have developed some knee arthritis due to overuse. I'm looking for a prosthesis that will work better on hills and stairs (ideally). I'm currently using a Flexfoot (Tallux? can't remember). I spoke with a prosthetist today who is recommending I look at the new Kinterra from Freedom Innovations. I'm wondering if I should be considering the Propio foot or similar. I would probably have to battle my insurance to get the Propio covered, though. I have a meeting with the prosthetist later this week (if anyone has recommendations, good or bad, for prosthesists in Seattle, please let me know!). Cheers, K
Taxes - What Happened!
kam replied to theroyprocess's topic in General ForumActually, the politicians have been around for a while. They even existed in the 1950s. The 1950s were a time of great prosperity for those countries that had not been bombed flat in WWII, though, no argument there! The thing that really bothers me now is that with the way the global corporations shift their tax liabilities around to the lowest bidder, governments are left with putting more tax burden on individuals - and of course the very rich are doing exactly the same "shopping for tax benefits" as the global corporations do. Which leaves it up to those of us in the vanishing middle class to fund what needs to be funded (hospitals, schools, roads, etc). No answer here, but I don't want to see anyone reduced to begging on street corners for money to buy a prosthesis (trying to tie this conversation back to the topic, somehow...). K
kam started following when "good" legs go bad
Thanks Ann, Yes, it's pretty frustrating. I tried hydrotherapy for a month earlier this year, trying to strengthen my left knee but only ended up aggravating it further (though it could have been the land-based physiotherary I was prescribed at the same time). A rehab hospital is not a place I've ever spent time in, so it was a bit confronting. I tend to be in and out pretty quickly when getting a prosthesis made at APC, so I'm familiar with the walking rails etc, but it's just not part of my self-image. I have to keep reminding myself that it doesn't change who I am, it is just something I am doing for a result. I'm seeing an exercise physiologist later this week and am hoping she can suggest some activities I can do at a gym again. I try to swim once or twice a week. I'm finding motivation difficult due to knee pain, and my job is fairly sedentary so I can just work and ignore the leg (oh so tempting). I tried a gym 2 years ago but dropped it because the personal trainer had no idea how to help someone my age with arthritis (she had me doing leg presses with heavier and heavier weights, when I would have been better off with more reps on a lighter weight). The gym meant I ended up needing arthroscopic surgery on my left knee a year ago. I'm going to get my prosthesis reviewed at a clinic next week and perhaps get a new one prescribed, to make sure it's the best it can be. It's been 6 years I think since I was last at the clinic. As long as my right leg hangs in there I'll use crutches with the prosthesis when my left knee isn't happy. I'm worried about what my husband and kids would think if I needed to use a wheelchair. When walking distances on rough ground, I use one or two hiking / trekking poles, which help. If it's good enough for perfectly able-bodied Europeans, it's good enough for me (bushwalkers / hikers in Australia don't tend to use trekking poles, we mostly see tourists with them). Kate
Hi Neal, Sounds like you're referring to hyaluronan, generic name Hylan, one brand name is "SynVisc". It's more expensive than cortisone. As a vegetarian (considering giving up cheese as well to help me avoid potential obesity due to lack of activity, due to this knee), I'm not too comfortable injecting bits of roosters into my body. We are trialling cortisone first. My orthopaedic specialist hasn't suggested anything else yet - the cortisone injection was painless and so far it has worked ok. There are no reliable longterm studies comparing hyaluronan, cortisone and saline (placebo) as yet. My knee is a lot less swollen today than it was yesterday. I'm not yet 50, so I have a while to go until I am eligible for a knee replacement. My father had his done at 76 years old, we are a long-lived family in general. Kate
when "good" legs go bad
kam posted a topic in General ForumI'm right below-knee limb deficient (ie. I was born without my lower right leg, I didn't have an amputation). After years of putting more strain on my left knee, including hopping around on one leg too much when I was a child, I've developed arthritis in my left knee. My patella isn't aligned properly, so it sits to the outside of where it should be, and there is no cartilage remaining under the patella. And now I've learned that the cartilage on the main weightbearing surfaces of my knee is wearing out. It hurts, especially when I walk on uneven ground or up and down stairs and hills. I'm not old enough for a knee replacement, since I'd wear it out and need a replacement sooner rather than later. Today I had an injection of cortisone & local anaesthetic, so it's feeling great again, but clearly it won't last. My doctor is willing to repeat the injection when needed, for example, before I go on holidays, etc. So, I offer this as a warning: don't do what I did! Especially, if you are young and plan to live a long life, or if you have a child with limb deficiency - don't let them hop around on one leg. For me, the damage is done, but please don't do what I did! If there's anyone else in this position, I'm interested in hearing how you cope. I'm not used to being disabled - my "normal" life is just that, pretty normal (husband, two kids, full-time employment - no time to be lazing around feeling sorry for myself). But I think I need to take a bit of time to think about how to cope with it, your suggestions are welcome. Kate
Way of walking: with or without a limp
kam replied to EllenK's topic in Prosthetics and RelatedHi Tonya, Cathy Howells, the physiotherapist at my prosthetics centre, has written a book specifically for amputees who want to be fitter (which is probably most of us). The book is called "The Amputee Coach", and you can find out more about it at http://www.theAmputeeCoach.com. The only exercise equipment you need is a theraband (a wide plastic strip, like "rubber" balloons are made of). It includes exercises for AK and BK, and is useful, even for people like me with nearly 50 years of experience (born with congenital limb deficiency). It starts at the beginning, helping you to get up off the floor when you fall (and all of us do from time to time). Perhaps you could buy a copy and show it to your physiotherapist or trainer at your gym, if you use one? The exercises are all designed to be done at home, though, so you can start by yourself. Kate (I used to be an active contributor to this forum, but that was a few years ago...).
One year on.......
kam replied to Fiona Call's topic in Reaching OutI am RBK, with bad knees - my left knee has cartilage damage due to overuse (too much hopping), and my right knee doesn't straighten for various reasons. My prosthesis accommodates the right knee flexion contracture, but it's tough to ride an unmodified bike, next to impossible without toeclips. I ride a bicycle with a short crank (pedal arm) on the righthand side. A bike shop would be able to do this for you if you need it, and it shouldn't be expensive. It means I don't have to bend my right knee as much. If you're bilateral, shorter cranks would mean you could keep the seat lower. I use toeclips to keep my feet on the pedal - never tried the special pedal / shoe combinations, I think they could be difficult since you need to rotate your foot in the pedal to get in or out. I keep the seat at the right height for my left knee, and I always get on / off the bike on my good side. I stand on my good leg on the left side of the bike, swing my prosthesis over and slip it into the toe clip. I then sit on the seat, push down with my right leg to get started, and pedal with my left foot on the upside-down left pedal. I flip the left pedal over with my toe once I'm moving, then put my foot into the toeclip. To stop, I pull my left foot out of the toeclip and rest it on top of the pedal (still able to pedal), then brake, lean the bike to the left, and put my left foot down. Once (and only once) I stopped the bike, it leaned to the right, and I fell over (foot still in the toeclip). It was a bit embarassing, but I was unhurt (never try to stop yourself with your arm if this happens to you, just roll onto your shoulder or you could easily break a collarbone). Falling off a bike when it's stopped is not likely to hurt much. I'd recommend practicing starts on a slight downhill slope when you're learning the technique. Cycling is great exercise, and it's lovely to be able to exercise out in the open air. -kam
Job interview
kam replied to meggy2342000's topic in General ForumHi, I wouldn't tell the shop about your amputation, unless they specifically ask for your experience with disabilities. It's fine to tell them later, but legally they cannot discriminate on the grounds of disability (even positively?) so it's just better all round not to mention it. I've never been asked about disabilities (well, just once, but that falls into the category of funny stories). Given that the shop undoubtedly caters to many different types of disability, your empathy and retail experience are better qualifications than your amputation. It's clear from this forum that there's a huge range of experiences represented - my experiences as a congenital amputee are different from yours (for example, I have no phantom pain, but I do live with the consequences of growing up with a prosthesis that didn't always fit... I feel I can't help new adult amputees because I didn't have to go through the trauma, though of course I have similar ssues with general mobility). I'm sure you'll be fine just as yourself, -kam

How can we get upgraded to Business class
kam replied to Muchlygirl's topic in Traveling with Special NeedsCat and I almost have matching left hands! I have my thumb and third finger - my mother always said I was lucky to have my ring finger so I could wear a wedding ring . I always have to be careful when waving in case people think I'm making rude gestures ;) . Actually I have partial index and second fingers on my left hand as well, and I can use them to type a bit (I had surgery to separate the webbing that bound them together about 10 years ago - helps with playing the piano). Both the index and second fingers have all the bones in them, and the index finger even has a fingernail, it's just small due to amniotic banding (slightly more than 1/3 of "normal" length). My hands have never helped me get an upgrade either :( . -kam
How can we get upgraded to Business class
kam replied to Muchlygirl's topic in Traveling with Special NeedsI have a few friends who work for Qantas, but none of them have been able to help. Perhaps a letter from a doctor? I have seen the stewards move someone to another seat because she was about to be crushed by the somewhat large person next to her, but I don't see how that would help you (extra weight when flying makes it much more difficult - this person couldn't lower the tray for meals). The best I've done is a couple of empty seats nearby, but that is unlikely when you're travelling with family. All I can say is that international air travel is really nowhere near as exotic as I thought it would be. Last time I found the person next to me had spilt cracker biscuits all over me while I was asleep - luckily I didn't have my prosthesis off or I would have had to try and clear the pin mechanism by turning it upside down and shaking it - now that would have been amusing ;) . I probably would have been arrested for carrying a dangerous object. I just turn into zombie mode when travelling and try to blank the whole thing out. Don't forget to be polite to security and keep an eye on your hand luggage as they put you into the "difficult persons" queue. Last time my wonky left index finger wouldn't work getting through US immigration (yes, you need 2 index fingers and 1 face to be admitted to the US) (well, they coped, but it looked like it could be interesting for a while). -kam
How can we get upgraded to Business class
kam replied to Muchlygirl's topic in Traveling with Special NeedsHi Muchly, I fly to the US pretty frequently from Sydney (3 - 4 times last year), with a couple of other trips (Tokyo, Singapore, Seoul) and I have managed just one upgrade on Qantas (using points). And that's as a gold frequent flyer. Maybe I should just work for a company that would pay for business class? Try to get a seat assignment early so you can sit in an exit row (and DON'T bring crutches unless Catherine needs them - you can't sit in an exit row if you are disabled). I don't normally use crutches, but I've seen people in economy using crutches and wheelchairs. Qantas just don't do upgrades - a colleague of mine travelled from Sydney to Asia and the US every week for 6 weeks, and they didn't give him a complimentary upgrade. Business class across the Pacific is usually full (I've seen them bump people out of business into economy - that was amusing). What day are you flying? -kam
New prosthesis!
kam posted a topic in Prosthetics and RelatedIt doesn't seem that long ago, but in late September I started to have a new BK prosthesis made - to replace one we'd been working on for over a year, that had never quite worked. I've been wearing an old (15 year old) prosthesis with a Carbon Copy II foot, supracondylar suspension and a pielite liner, since my "good" prosthesis (iceross liner, Flex Foot) was never comfortable enough to wear all day. We were replacing the "good" prosthesis, since the "old" one had developed cracking at the sides of the socket (not easy to repair). See Here we go again... for the beginning of the story. The good news is that just before Christmas, I took delivery of my new prosthesis. It uses an iceross liner, and a comparable foot to my "old" prosthesis (not sure of the exact model, but it's a multi-axial foot, probably Blatchford). The better news is that the new one works well. Of course, I would prefer an adjustable heel height foot / ankle, and the leg has a foam cosmesis that must be worn with a knee-high stocking, but the proof is in the walking, and this one works. So, what did we do differently? The 15 year old prosthesis doesn't have the "standard" cut-out for the knee - instead, it goes straight across, enclosing my knee. The technical term is "KBM" or "Knee bearing Muenster". This works for me because I don't have a patella (legacy of knee surgery to stabilize a chronically dislocating patella), and my knee doesn't extend fully (it has a slightly larger passive range of motion than active). With the KBM style, I can take a bit of pressure above where my patella would be (a bit like using a PTB strap). The iceross is an improvement since it means it stays on better. I've decided that the stability of the multi-axial foot works better for me than the bounciness of the flexfoot, at least at the moment. I just returned from 4 days camping (in a tent, rough ground, temperatures in the mid-high 30C's), and I had no problems with the leg (no blisters or falls). Next step is to take the old socket from the prosthesis with the flexfoot and attach a rampro ankle and old foot to it so I can be more mobile getting in and out of the water; the kids at the camp were a little surprised by my "pirate" leg (which has no foot), see Going to the beach for a picture. But at least I could walk into the water, and go canoeing and sailing. - kam (sweltering in Sydney; it was 44C today, but we just had a southerly change, so it'll be 26C tomorrow).
Hello! ...choosing to amputate is tough!
kam replied to RozM's topic in IntroductionsHi Roz, Happy New Year! I'm RBK, and use my right leg on accelerator and brake with no modifications. When I passed my driving test (in Australia, many years ago), they wanted to give me an "automatic only" licence, until I pointed out that I'd used a manual car for the test, and it's my right leg, not my left, that's affected. I ended up with an amended licence that said "must wear artificial leg", but the amendment seems to have been dropped at some point, it now just says I must wear glasses (which I do). I had no problem with the California driving test either. I think it would be more difficult to drive a manual car LBK, due to the range of motion required to operate the clutch, but I'm sure others would have more information here. So, I'd say that once you have a prosthesis fitted and are reasonably comfortable with it, you should be able to drive your car without modifications. I can't offer much advice on the surgery and recovery since I was born without my right foot. Good luck! -kam
Shower ?
kam replied to Awesome Blue's topic in Prosthetics and RelatedAmy, I'm right BK (congenital) and I balance by pushing my knee or stump against the wall while showering, standing on my good leg. I can take a little bit of weight at the end of my stump, so if the shower is over the bath, I sometimes use the end of my stump on the edge of the bath. I travel often, and I've never had problems. I can't imagine showering with a prosthesis on. Since we had to renovate our bathroom when we moved to this house, I do have a shower / hose attachment for the bath as well, so I can wash my hair while sitting in the bath if my "good" leg is having problems. It's also great for washing the kids' hair. -kam

Mets pitchers and catchers will have their first official workout of Spring Training on the back fields of First Data Field on Thursday, Feb. 14.
The games, which start Feb. 23, are fun to watch. It's a sunny, upbeat, breezy environment as you're surrounded by true Mets fans and local old-timers that have been going to games here for over 30 years.
For me, though, if I had to choose, I prefer to attend the workouts, which begin this week.
The two-week stretch of pitchers and catchers and position players reporting and working out is a no-pressure, intimate, casual environment allowing fans to focus their attention on specific skills, strategies and moments of the game. If you have kids, it's a perfect time to talk about the game in a skill-oriented way that is difficult to do during an actual game, let alone a fast-paced, in-season game at Citi Field.
Key things to know
- The team holds their daily workout and practice sessions starting around 9-10 a.m., though this can vary depending on weather, team meetings and other requirements. That said, they work out seven days a week, with each lasting about 90 minutes to two hours. Note that the team will work out before games, but the the back fields close to fans at 11:30 a.m.
- There is no charge to enter the back fields and attend workouts. Parking for just workouts is usually free, but I keep hearing that may change at some point.
- The team trains on five to six practice fields and two main bullpens behind First Data. It's wide open beneath beautiful palm trees and well organized with pathways to walk from field to field.
- In the middle of the four big practice fields are risers to sit, shaded benches, bathrooms and a concession stand with a grill, hot dogs, burgers, chicken sandwiches, drinks, chips, etc. Here, fans are able to lean against the fence, be inches from players, their benches, equipment and hear conversation between coaches and players. It's also quite common to see Mickey Callaway (like Terry Collins before him) stroll back from the field and talk with fans, answering questions and listening to -- in some cases -- pretty honest feedback.
Obviously, autographs are a major focus this time of year considering there are many occasions when players and fans are separated by only a few feet.
Occasionally a player will quickly stop between drills when running from field to field on pathways blocked off by ropes and monitored by security guards. However, that's not always the case. It's important to remember that these young men have a job to do. So, respect their time, especially since there may be a coach judging them on punctuality.
It's best to catch elite players at the end of practice when they exit through the center field door on the main practice field (the one with the big, blue wall in the shape of Citi Field).
Here's a map I drew to try and show where fans are able to walk, starting when camp opens to the public each day, and where groups of players often center their training after stretching...
Other advice? Dress in layers. The mornings can be cold and windy, but it quickly gets hot and humid. Bring sunscreen and a hat. Bring whatever you want to be autographed, not just baseballs, hats, cards, pictures, etc. When you're creative, guys tend to notice you more. Also bring a marker!! Also, for whatever reason, the Mets dugout is on the third base side of the stadium.
Here's a Basic FAQ with more about St. Lucie, games, etc...
When can I start attending workouts? The first pitcher-and-catcher workout
What's the closest airport? Palm Beach (PBI), which is 40 miles away
How much do game tickets cost? It changes yearly, but usually $15-$30
How do I buy tickets? At the gate, Mets.com, or call (772) 871-2115
What's the address? 525 NW Peacock Boulevard
What is there to do in St. Lucie? The main drag is Port St. Lucie Boulevard and Highway 1, which are surrounded by a variety of local and chain restaurants, grocery stores, bars, Walmart, hotels, pharmacies and more or less anything you would need on a trip away from home.
The closest beach is Hutchinson Island, which is roughly 30 minutes from PSL.
The more popular bars and restaurants include, Duffy's Sports Grill (gigantic sports bar, bowling, batting cages, etc.), Vine & Barley (craft beer and wine), Berry Fresh Cafe, West End Grill, Tutto Fresco (outstanding Italian food) and Hokkaido (hibachi). It's not uncommon to see players and coaches hanging out or dining at the above. You may also run in to players and executives at the Starbucks on the corner of Peacock Boulevard and St. Lucie Blvd.
If you're into golf, the PGA runs a course and facility that is quite popular with the team's coaches and players. Most of the courses are private, though you'll find a few public courses, including the popular Fairwinds Course in Fort Pierce.
A few miles south of St. Lucie West, you will find Tradition, which is recently built, pristine with restaurants, local shops and a small community feel. Also, Downtown Stuart (further south of St. Lucie) is fun and casual and has an old-world, beachy, Florida vibe with a several very good restaurants and shops.
Where can I stay? There are several hotels within just a few miles of FirstData Field, including the Sheraton PGA Vacation Resort, Marriott Residence Inn, Mainstay Suites, Springhill Suites, and the Hampton Inn. There are also hotels in Tradition, such as the Homewood Suites, where you may find the team's zero-to-three players staying for the spring.

text: ^ You're right. Joe's crowd do seem to be the kind that would kill homosexuals and child molesters. I hadn't thought of that. Maybe it's an indication of how far they have travelled from what they once were, that the would tolerate/promote this? I forgot to mention, in my post above, how much I loved Carl's question to his dad about what are they, what is their identity, what kind of people are they now? Is he asking because he can't remember what kind of folks they once were, pre ZA, or because he doesn't know because of how they have changed/what this world has done to them? Carl became one of my favourite characters in the second half of this season, too. Another thing I'm in the minority of, I guess.

Eastern purple coneflowers grow to be about 2 feet tall and are prized as garden plants and the herbal remedy echinacea. Due to its medicinal properties, over-harvesting caused it to become scarce in the wild, while its large purple blossoms make it popular in gardens.
Purple coneflowers grow to 2 feet tall. They have long stalks with rough leaves growing periodically on the stalks. The lower leaves grow more oval with rough serrated edges and the base of the leaves are heart shaped where they attach to the plant. The leaves on the stem are similar but grow smaller as they get higher up the stem.
One purple coneflower blossom grows at the top of each stem. They are purple with petals roughly 1 1/2 to 3 inches long. The center is round and about an inch across. The center of the flower gives the plant its scientific name, echino, from the Greek for hedgehog, the centers are brown and purple with spikes that resemble a hedgehog.
This plant grows on rocky prairies through the central United States from Texas to Michigan. It is now grown in many parts of the country as a garden plant.
Along with being a perennial with long lasting purple flowers, this plant is sought after for its medicinal properties. The purple coneflower produces echinacea. Farmers harvest the flowers to make herbal tea and the roots to make echinacea extract. Native plains tribes used the plant for medicinal purposes and passed the knowledge on to early pioneers.
Over-harvesting caused the coneflower to become scarce throughout most of its native range. It is still found in river bottoms, but most coneflowers are seen growing in domestic gardens and cultivated by farmers.

While others may have more name recognition, Ecovacs is a strong contender with nearly a dozen different models to meet the needs of specific customers. They sent me their most popular model, the DEEBOT 500 ($259.95), to try. For me, with primarily hardwood flooring, it works well. This particular model travels somewhat at random, stopping at walls and other obstacles and changing direction, but Ecovacs has more advanced models that can be programed via the app based on your floor layout.
Master your iPhone in one minute a day:
Sign up to iPhone Life's Tip of the Day Newsletter and we'll send you a tip each day to save time and get the most out of your iPhone or iPad.
The DEEBOT 500 lasts for nearly two hours before it needs to be recharged, and magically, if finds its charging station automatically then charges itself. So that's one less thing to worry about. I wish my iPhone and Apple Watch could do that! The battery life is important, because this model works at random. Just keep the charging dock in an open area, to improve docking success. You can also use the included remote to tell the vacuum to go home and initiate recharging. The remote can also tell the DEEBOT which direction to go, pause or switch between spot and edge cleaning.
I love that, in addition to the app, the DEEBOT can be controlled by Alexa, (via Wi-Fi) as well as the included remote control (which looks a bit like my Logitech Harmony Express remote, so I have to be careful!). But I tend to use Alexa for as much as possible, anyway. It even looks like an oversized Amazon Echo Dot! It's not 100 percent automated. You have to empty the dust bin of course. And eventually, you may have to replace the filter or brushes, depending on usage.
Ecovacs has so many models that it's hard to choose which model to get, as some of the higher end units offer water-based mopping, as well as carpet detection, and longer battery life. The good news is that the website offers a comparison tool and a filter so you can restrict items if you have carpets, desire mopping, etc., to find the right model(s) for you.
Also, keep in mind that, if you have pets, they might be disturbed or even threatened by any robotic vacuum cleaner, as my small dog is. But I try to keep her in another part of the house when using the cleaner.
- Nearly two hours of battery life
- Automatically recharges itself using docking station
- Controlled by iOS app, Alexa, or remote control
- One of many varieties offered
- Random mapping versus app-based
- Higher end models offer water-based mopping, carpet detection, and longer battery life
- Might disturb pets
Final Verdict
The DEEBOT 500 from Ecovacs, or one of its brothers, should be able to keep your floors clean; just choose the right one.

What's Hot: With the exception of some minor updates to the grille made when the vehicle was introduced in February 2015, the CX-5 is basically a carryover. A 2016 5 model was introduced in January 2016 with a few minor content changes. The five-seater compact crossover is available in three trims, with either a front-wheel drive or an all-wheel drive configuration.
The base model can be powered by a manual or an automatic transmission, while the other trims are only available with an automatic transmission. The five passenger crossover, with its stylish design that is referred to as the KODA internally, is available with two engines, a 155-and a 184-horsepower engine. This is one of the few crossovers still available with a manual transmission.
We were fortunate to get our hands on the peppier 2.5-liter, 184-horsepower engine that was equipped with many of today's must-have convenience features. While our vehicle lacked the latest safety driving aids that move toward autonomous driving, a safety package is available for an extra $1500. Those features include a radar-activated cruise control system, a forward collision warning braking system, a lane departure warning system, an automatic high beam headlight system. The $1500 investment also requires the optional technology package, which was on our test vehicle.
The CX-5 also takes on Mazda's fun-to-drive nature, with its sporty handling characteristics and engaging steering system. The vehicle provides great visibility too, due to its seating height.
What's Not: Mazda's product planners in charge of content need to go back to the drawing board to reexamine how they package the CX-5, when compared to their newest and smallest entry, the CX-3 compact crossover.
The base model CX-3, the brand's new entry-level crossover, was equipped with a standard rear back-up camera and a 6-speaker audio system, while the larger and pricier CX-5 lacked a standard rear camera and had just the 4-speaker audio system on the base model?
Go figure. (To address this issue, the 2016 5 model is now standard on all trims levels equipped with the six-speed automatic transmission). It costs roughly $3,000 to get the latest safety self-driving advancements. Mazda should consider repacking the content, making it more affordable and available on all trims.
Drive Or Drive By?; The CX-5, with its prominent signature grille and truck-like height, is one of the most engaging driver-oriented crossovers in its class. Unlike most of the vehicles in the segment, the CX-5 offers a choice of two four-cylinder engines. The vehicle offers a variety of trims and features, allowing the driver to equip the vehicle with everything from basic features to the latest high-tech safety driving advancements.
Competition: Chevy Equinox; Ford Escape; Honda CR-V; Hyundai Tucson; Jeep Cherokee; Kia Sportage; Nissan Juke; Subaru Forester; Toyota RAV4; and VW Tiguan
