Patients are generally able to return to work between two days and two weeks, depending on the extent of the liposuction. A compression garment which can easily be removed by the patient is worn for two to four weeks. This garment must have elasticity and allow for use of bandages. If non-absorbable sutures are placed, they will be removed after five to ten days.
Any pain is controlled by a prescription or over-the-counter medication, and may last as long as two weeks, depending on the particular procedure. Bruising will fade after a few days or two weeks. Swelling will subside within two weeks to two months, while numbness may last for several weeks. Normal activity can be resumed from three to five weeks depending on the procedure. The final result will be evident within one to six months after surgery, although the patient will be able to notice the difference within days or weeks, once the swelling subsides.
The suctioned fat cells are permanently gone. However, if the patient does not maintain a proper diet and exercise regimen, the remaining fat cell neighbors could still enlarge, creating irregularities.

SPRINGFIELD - A hearing on allegations of police brutality against patrolman Jeffrey M. Asher and three other officers was concluded Wednesday night by a civilian review board, but a veil of secrecy quickly descended over its actions despite promises of transparency when it was created in the wake of the very incident it was deciding this week.
Sources have told The Republican that recommendations for firings and suspensions were discussed at the meeting.
The board plans to forward its recommendations to Police Commissioner William J. Fitchet, who has the ultimate say on discipline.
The hearing was conducted by the Community Police Hearing Board, created after a public outcry that roiled the city in wake of the incident. The case involved a traffic stop late last year, captured by amateur video, in which drug suspect Melvin Jones III was hit by police.
The video, made public by The Republican and MassLive.com in January, shows an officer, identified in a police report as Asher, repeatedly hitting Jones with a flashlight. The report also said that Asher hit Jones after the man grabbed another officer's gun.
Officers Michael J. Sedergren, Theodore Truiolo and Lt. John M. Bobianski were also involved in the Nov. 27 arrest and were also the subject of Wednesday's hearing, according to the agenda. The hearing, however, was conducted in executive session, closed to the public, officials said.
The hearing board meeting was one of three separate hearings involving Springfield police problems. All were carried out behind closed doors.
Although Mayor Domenic J. Sarno and others spoke of transparency when setting the board in motion in February, details of the Wednesday hearing have been closely held.
The board's chairwoman, Springfield attorney Cynthia Tucker, has not returned repeated telephone calls for comment.
Springfield Community Police Hearing Board
- The following are the members Community Police Hearing Board. The first four served on the Community Complaint Review Board, which was eliminated:
Terry A. Aberdale, retired assistant deputy superintendent of the Hampden County Sheriff's Department
H. Edgar Alejandro, manager of economic and community development for Western Mass. Electric Co.
The Rev. Amos L. Bailey, pastor of the Christian Faith Baptist Church
Robert Jackson, owner of Jackson Security Co.
Cynthia Tucker, a lawyer and past commissioner with the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination; appointed board chairwoman
Joanne Morales-Harrison, community re-entry unit manager with the Hampden County Sheriff's Department, and past member of Springfield Police Commission
Albert P. Tranghese, production manager of Lenox American Saw
Board member H. Edgar Alejandro confirmed only that the hearing was completed after being conducted over a number of hearing dates and "we are crafting some recommendations to the commissioner." He would not comment further nor would he confirm whether a vote had been taken..
The mayor's office has not received confirmation of any recommendation, said Thomas T. Walsh, communications director for Sarno. Police Department spokesman John M. Delaney said Fitchet has also not received any information regarding a recommendation.
The officers involved in the case have the option of closed-door or open meetings, and chose a closed hearing, Walsh said.
The board, which was created by an executive order of the mayor, is advisory, and Fitchet is not bound to follow its recommendations.
Many residents and activists, angered by the Jones incident and by prior brutality complaints filed against Asher, had urged the mayor to create a civilian board with disciplinary powers, which has not existed since 2005. Some opposed the idea of the mayor appointing all members, saying it would create a board beholden to the mayor.
City Council President Jose F. Tosado said Friday he continues to advocate for a stronger civilian review board with powers to discipline as occurred when there was a five-member Police Commission in Springfield. A commission with full powers has authority and accountability, he said.
Action by the former police commission was made public soon after they were taken.
"I am not satisfied at all with the board," Tosado said. "It is still only a board that can make recommendations. At the end of the day, whatever it recommends, it ultimately is still up to the commissioner."
An internal investigation of the Jones case culminated in the board's hearing. Hampden District Attorney William M. Bennett could not be reached for comment on the status of a related criminal investigation that has been under way.
A grand jury indicted Jones in August on charges, which pertain to the case, of resisting arrest and possession of cocaine with intent to distribute.
Bennett said earlier that in addition to the two crimes for which Jones was indicted, the grand jury was presented with evidence and asked to indict Jones for assault and battery on a police officer, malicious damage to property and attempt to commit a crime.
The grand jury rejected those charges, Bennett said.
Jones last month filed applications for criminal complaints against the four police officers. He is seeking assault and battery charges against all four officers. Jones' lawyer, Jared Olanoff, said he may request that additional charges issue, including civil rights violations.
Jones is black and the officers under scrutiny are white.
A show cause hearing on Jones' request for criminal complaints was held Thursday in Holyoke District Court.
Lawyers for the officers filed a motion to bar the public and the media from the hearing before a clerk magistrate, designed to probe whether assault and battery charges against the four are warranted. There has been no decision from that hearing.
Asher also was caught on amateur videotape in the 1990s kicking a black suspect while the man was handcuffed and on the ground.
The Springfield Retirement Board voted unanimously last month to grant Asher retirement. Asher, 39, has been out on stress leave since the Nov. 27 incident on Rifle Street.
Mark J. Ianello, one of five members on the Springfield Retirement Board, said the group voted to approve Asher's application based on an evaluation by a panel of medical experts appointed by the state's Public Employees Retirement Administration Commission. However, the state commission has final say on whether Asher will be granted a disability retirement.
In another case involving police discipline, two former police officers, who were fired by Fitchet in March in connection with an alleged beating, have appealed to an arbitrator.
The former patrolmen, Danilo Feliciano and Pedro R. Mendez, were dismissed by Fitchet for violation of department rules, and their arbitration appeal was heard this week in closed-door session at a Forest Park conference room. The hearing was continued.
Feliciano is accused of beating Rolando E. Rivera, who claimed the attack occurred after he had a "domestic quarrel" with Feliciano's niece. Mendez is accused of drafting a report that portrayed Rivera as the aggressor with police.
Feliciano has pleaded innocent to a criminal charge of assault and battery, while Rivera has pleaded innocent to charges of assault and battery, assault on a police officer and resisting arrest.
The Community Police Hearing Board came into being on Feb. 23. It replaces the Community Complaint Review Board, created in 2007 by former Mayor Charles V. Ryan, which reviewed internal investigations but had no authority to hear cases or call witnesses.
The City Council, through its subcommittees, plans to conduct community meetings to hear from the public on the issue of creating a stronger civilian police board, Tosado said.
Staff writers Peter Goonan and Buffy Spencer also contributed to this report

Your Explanatory Memorandum of 6 January on
this proposal has been considered by Sub-Committee D.
As with the separate proposal on "denied
boarding", we feel that the Government's position on the
proposal, as set out in the EM, raises questions about the consistency
of policies of support for the aviation industry (particularly
short-haul low-cost carriers) with measures to curb global atmospheric
pollution. These are relevant to the Committee's scrutiny of aviation
measures generally.
We would be interested, therefore, in tracking
the further progress through the Council of the noise classification
proposal. I should be grateful if you could let us have a progress
report in good time for the next Council meeting at which decisions
will be sought. Meanwhile we are clearing the present document.

Iowa State graduates first doctorate in human computer interaction
AMES, Iowa -- Melinda Cerney is the first Iowa State University student to graduate with a doctorate in human computer interaction. She'll receive her degree at ceremonies on Friday, May 6.
Iowa State is one of three American universities offering a doctorate in human computer interaction. The program trains students to understand how humans and computers interact in various environments.
"To have a degree in this brand new, emerging field and to be the first to come out of a new program is exciting," Cerney said. "It's been fun to help shape this program."
Cerney is a 1997 graduate of Brownell-Talbot High School in Omaha, Neb. She has a 2001 bachelor's degree in engineering science and a 2003 master's degree in mechanical engineering, both from Iowa State. Her studies focused on virtual reality and digital human modeling. She said the focus fit well with her interest in engineering and graphics.
The human computer interaction program appealed to her because, "I liked the interdisciplinary nature of the program and wanted an opportunity to work with psychologists, artists, designers, and engineers," she said.
Cerney was recognized this year with a Research Excellence Award for her accomplishments. In addition to demonstrating academic success, students must develop a well-written thesis or dissertation to win the award.
After graduation, Cerney is moving to Seattle to start a job in Microsoft's User Experience Group. The group is engineering the next version of Windows, code-named Longhorn.
Part of her responsibilities will be working on the look and feel of Windows - everything from menu structure to color to how error messages are displayed. She'll also be working to evaluate how easy it is to use the new system.
Cerney said she is ready for the challenges of her career in human computer interaction.
"This is the technology that's exciting and innovative right now," she said. "It's designing more usable interfaces, smaller and portable technology and it's the next age of virtual reality.
"It's how we deliver information, how we perceive information, and how we manage that information. It's creating a model that you're able to interact with, and I really like that."
Quick look
Melinda Cerney wanted her computer studies to include work with psychologists, artists, designers and engineers.

Pawning off your prized possessions
Selling My Everything
The violin has been a part of my family history for more than 80 years. My father, a Hungarian immigrant, began playing at age five, and started teaching me to play when I was just five. Strangely enough, I owe my life and the lives of my children to the instrument.
At the end of WWII, while my father was a music student at the Liszt Conservatory in Budapest, he was drafted into the Hungarian Army. He was promptly captured and sent to Siberia. After more than three years of hell he came to the United States to join the rest of his family who had come here.
How do I owe my life you ask? If it had not been for the fact that my father was a violinist he would not have survived the camp. Once a week, he was asked to come to the camp commander's home to teach his daughter to play violin. During this time he was offered a decent meal. He was still skin and bone when he was finally released, but at least he made it out. Many who entered never came home. Many died in mines, some by malnutrition, or disease. I do quite literally owe my life to the instrument, and a loving God who protected my dad during those years.
Since the last year I have had the unhappy task of selling off my instruments to supplement our family income. Times are tough everywhere, and many have similar stories. As a teacher and violinist with a rather modest income, it became crucial to give extra support to my family, paying rising fuel and property tax costs, more insurance costs, and medical bills. My father recently passed away and I had to sell the violins he left for me as well. I know he would be deeply saddened, but would understand completely. Even with the blessing of being able to sell these instruments to pay for rising costs, it could take several years to catch up with bills .
The monetary value of these violins in not important as a loss. The cherished memories of them made it very difficult however. Some of the instruments have been in our family for many decades or longer and can never be replaced. One violin was played on by my father, a symphony musician for decades. I remember him giving me lessons with it when I was five. My friend recently sold his Sax (given to him by his father) to make ends meet. It isn't right or fair, but as so many posters have indicated, life isn't fair. What you do with life after it hands you some lemons is what is important.
With all this has come new found hope as well. After all the negative comments about how it would be impossible to pull out of this mess by dealing in violins I heartily disagree and the last laugh is ours. We have indeed prevailed and are no longer as desperate as we were at the start of the recession. Despite having had several challenges and a despite the fact that I suffered a stroke since this article first appeared we have as a family overcome. We did not lose our home as so many readers had gloomily forecast from the safety of their computer terminals. In fact we continue to improve and are doing better than we have in years.

River body believed to be that of missing Neb. man
SOUTH SIOUX CITY, Neb. —
Officials say the body of a missing man may have been found in the Missouri River at South Sioux City.
The man's identity hasn't been confirmed, but the body is believed to be that of 25-year-old Anthony Campbell. He's been missing since he went into the water around 4 a.m. Friday at Scenic Park Campground and was swept away. The body was found around 1 p.m. Sunday near a railroad bridge about a mile south of the campground.
Dive teams, boats with side-scanning sonar and cadaver dogs were used in the search.

The NO Project: Rattling the chains of the 21st century slave trade
This is the third Pat on the Back. Writing these articles has brought me in contact with inspiring people. I've learned about positive changes in the world being made through the passionate commitment of these dedicated individuals. In the first article, I learned how the Good Child Foundation is harnessing the energy of tens of thousands of Celtic fans to progress the cause of inclusive education for Thai children with Down's Syndrome. It seemed to be all about making links.
In the second article, I learned about the work of the Disabled Access Friendly campaign to raise awareness, through English teaching, of disability mobility and other issues surrounding disability. That was another story about action for inclusivity and fairness. It was Katie Quartano of the Disabled Access Friendly campaign who suggested that I contact Judy.
Judy is an English language teacher, teacher trainer, ELT author, actor and founder of The NO Project, a voluntary organisation raising awareness of the crime of human trafficking. It was Judy who gave me a very simple answer to the ever-nagging question, "How can I help?"
Would you really want to wear, eat or use a product that you knew was made by a slave? Another place, another time that could be your child. Or you.
Human trafficking is an umbrella term encompassing a multitude of crimes against adults and children; crimes such as commercial sexual exploitation, the abuse of domestic servants, indentured labour and the mistreatment of agricultural and industrial labourers. There are an estimated 20-30 million victims of human trafficking in the world today.
While the term 'trafficking' implies movement of some sort, most of these crimes do not involve the movement of people but the exploitation of vulnerable people in various ways very close to home. Nowhere is untouched by this stain on our collective humanity. It's global. It's networked. In some cases it lurks in the shadows, but often it's practiced openly, allowed to flourish by governments supporting industries that, put simply, use slaves. It is certain that some of your favourite products include slavery in the supply chain. This could be your morning cappuccino, a favourite T-shirt, the chocolate in your birthday cake, your wedding ring or the minerals in your beloved mobile phone.
The NO Project raises awareness and resources to fight these crimes.
If I were a human trafficker, I wouldn't like to bump into Judy on a dark night. She's filled with a relentless defiance, stoked by what she has seen and heard through her work on The NO Project. I've only spoken to her once and it was an eighty-minute Skype whirlwind. Based in Greece, she was just back in from Romania where she had been advising on a collaborative, nationwide anti-trafficking campaign with The NO Project. She was just heading off to Harvard for further meetings. I get the impression that she's someone who keeps moving. Judy is descended from the 17th century scientist, Robert Boyle of Boyle's Law fame. Like her ancestor, she is concerned with the application of constant pressure. Wherever Judy has found herself, she's given of her time and energy to help victims of the dark side of humanity.
A few more scribbled notes from Judy's rip-roaring life: Upbringing in a 'forestry village in New Zealand ('volcanic territory'…'pig hunters'). Campaigned against misguided sports teams playing in apartheid-era South Africa. Moved to London in the seventies to work as an actor. Worked with ELT teachers of refugees in Australia. Arrested for unlicensed street clowning in the heart of London. Worked with Sesame Street creator, the developmental psychologist Dr. Gerry Lesser. Researched ways in which children raised in chaos develop survival strategies (ask her about crib talk). Anti-racism work. Media messaging. Challenging status quo. Proactive. Fighter for Justice. Happened to read an article on commercial sexual exploitation that described a young foreign woman in Greece who hung herself in a toilet. It was the only apparent way out of her situation. Judy's world flipped upside down. The NO Project.
Meanwhile, (where do these people get the time?), Judy has lived 'the ELT dream' and tells the story of it in a way that would inspire anyone to enter the industry; teaching and teacher training at International House, studying at Harvard Graduate School of Education, and authoring materials for Longman Pearson.
Human trafficking is not an 'issue'. It's the world's fastest growing crime.
But back to The NO Project. It stems from Judy's belief that we should be using two main raw materials to teach; the energy, experiences and talents of our students themselves, and what's going on in the world. Awareness of human trafficking is being raised through student creativity, particularly the visual arts, dance and film. The NO Project is relentless. Large scale public awareness campaigns have just run in Bulgaria and will be taking place throughout Romania starting in September – thanks to the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) department of a European bank. Everyone involved in The NO Project works on a voluntary basis.
Judy explained to me how important it is that teachers should understand how every person, through their choices, can make a difference and that some of our students will become the policy makers of the future. She also described to me the feeling of satisfaction it gives her when a student tells her, years later, that a lesson she taught them changed their worldview. So, please take a look at some of the links below and spend some time on The NO Project website and Facebook page. And please share this wonderful work with your students.
As an ELT author, Judy is frustrated by how the global publishing industry has largely turned its back on content about human trafficking in their materials. It's on her wish list that the major publishers should cease hiding from such an important educational matter that is directly concerned with the protection of people of all ages all over the world. Judy makes the powerful point that, 20 years ago, no ELT materials included content about environmental issues and nowadays you can't open a course book without finding units on global warming, recycling or other eco matters. Judy hopes it will not take so long for our industry to address the global crime of human trafficking as further tens of millions of bodies and lives are bought and sold.
So, once you've spent some time on The NO Project website getting up to speed on the facts (and Judy reckons it is a very fast learning curve – a couple of hours is a good start), what can you do to help? This is the nagging question that I am grateful to Judy for answering for me.
Just do what you love to do.
If you love painting, paint. If you love writing, write. If you love talking to people, talk. If you love filmmaking, make films. Whatever it is that you love to do can be put to service of the good cause of raising awareness of human trafficking, or any other good cause for that matter.
I would love teachers to realise that there other educators all over the world confronting the crime of human trafficking in a respectful, dignified and creative way.
The more awareness there is of this crime, the more pressure will be put upon the powers that be to do something about it. Societies will be compelled to protect their most vulnerable members; the victims of traffickers who sniff out and prey on that very vulnerability. That millions suffer a living hell in our clever, high-tech new world is unacceptable; abandoned children driven around from apartment to apartment, repeatedly raped and then discarded, people who are so badly damaged by others that they never have the chance of anything resembling what you, reading this now, would call a life.
Just do it. Whatever it is. If you know what's happening, and now you do, there really is no excuse.

Discussion in 'GBAtemp & Scene News' started by T-hug, Apr 27, 2006.
Yay finally!!!
is this any good cuz ign gave it a 6...
Guilty Gear, hm? Sounds a bit like some sort of robot pornography. But in all seriousness, I wouldn't mind trying this out once I get my DS Lite.
I've been waiting for this game. It's a 2D fighting game kind of like Jump Superstars or Bleach DS. One difference is that you fight between both screens, so you can go above and below
Dammit it's 512Mbits. I really need to get my damn Supercard.
Man, unfortunately, I'm going to have to agree with IGN on this game. It is pretty bad. I can't really describe very well why I don't like it, but I just don't. After having played Bleach and Jump Super Stars....this game just feels very lacking. And the mini-games are horrible. *sigh* I was wanting this to be a very nice game
I've been waiting on this one for a few weeks now. Even if it's only mediocre it's still a fighting game in english.
I wish Capcom would port one of the Street Fighter series. Maybe a toned down version of one of the versus games or another revival game like on the gba. Now that there's a nintendo handheld with 6 buttons it seems a shame to see it go to waste.
I totally agree with you on that one applejuice, a simple port of the arcade Street Fighter 2 with WiFi play would be good enough.
Lets hope Capcom release somthing like that in the near future
It's always good to see more fighters coming out on these new handhelds. Guilty Gear on PSP was real good, I don't expect the graphics to come close on this system but some of us only own a DS. They should port over marvel vs capcom to one of these systems. I always wanted a handheld version of that game.
A portable Marvel vs Capcom... hell yeah! That'd be awesome.
Yeah...its kind of mediocre. But fun in its own way. Id rather have a more classic GG than a SMB clone. I'll stick with Bleach for 2D fighters for now.
Why go with Street Fighter II?
Check THIS out.
Dreaming is free, right?
yeah classic guilty gear over this any day. alpha series or sf2 too

Well lads and lassies, as the man says - it's the last round up of this series. Week 9 of the stint has come upon us. I have really enjoyed being a part of this group with other fellow (and fabulous) Irish bloggers. It started off as a small idea about 3 months ago and as a group I reckon we have gelled together quite well. It's been great fun!
The last week's topic is an interesting one. Whether you're coming up from Australia after a year on the trot, a weekend away or even a hospital trip - that's when the cookie crumbles and you find out what makes your home your little abode. As much as I can be on the gander in Dublin or Galway from time to time, and as much as I like to embrace my inner city bug, I'm a home bird at heart and I really relish my familiar comforts. Home is where the heart is they say? Home (to me) is where there's all of the things listed below come into play.
If I was ever able to cook as well as my mother, I would be content with life forever more. She is hands-down one of the finest cooks going, and is always willing to dish up a plate for any random poor aul' soul that wanders into our kitchen. The food from home just doesn't compare with any other respectable outlet.
And her home-made scones and brown bread? Out of this world.
You would think that tea should come under "Home-Cooked Food". If you are trying to insult my intelligence, you would know tea is a fundamental and integral part of Irish life, It's a welcoming, a peacemaker and conversation flower. It's the "Welcome home from your travels", the "I'm sorry I left the immersion on over the weekend" and it's the "You were looking fairly shook on it yesterday at mass, are ya alright?"
Why is tea so far more superior than anywhere else? You have your own teabags, your preference of milk (I'm a bit fussy on that one, I'll admit) and the sugar is never hidden on you.
It breaks my heart when people decide to put the sugar on the top shelf. Don't be one of those households, bare a thought for your under 5 footer folk.
The 6 words that every Irish woman wants to hear:
What beats a good, warm open fire?
Do I need to say any more on this one?
"Well I HEARD ye were galavanting lately, tell me ALL about it now."
If you want to escape a mob of questions and "hellohowareyedoin's" then your local supermarket is not the place to be. On the flip side, it's lovely to go in and be fairly sure you will say hello to at least 10 different people. A litany of hard-hitting subjects gets discussed on the shop floor, you would be surprised!
There aren't many beds, I am sure, that can compare to your own. You know what side of it is the most comfortable (or if you're like me and you plonk right in the middle), you know what time the sun peeks through at which angle and how to block out all civilisation while it's doing so. You might have your electric blanket, particular pillow or traps and gadgets on your locker. It's a given, there are certain things like this that help you sleep better and there's no point in being proud and denying it!
That's it, sin é! I hoped you enjoyed this one, and a big thank you to the other bloggers that have stuck with this series for the past 9 weeks.

WebClient.OpenRead Method (String)
The .NET API Reference documentation has a new home. Visit the .NET API Browser on docs.microsoft.com to see the new experience.
Opens a readable stream for the data downloaded from a resource with the URI specified as a String.
Assembly: System (in System.dll)
- address
The URI specified as a String from which to download data.
Return ValueType: System.IO.Stream
A Stream used to read data from a resource.
The address parameter is null.
The URI formed by combining BaseAddress, address is invalid.
An error occurred while downloading data.
The OpenRead method creates a Stream instance used to read the contents of the resource specified by the address parameter. This method blocks while opening the stream. To continue executing while waiting for the stream, use one of the OpenReadAsync methods.
If the BaseAddress property is not an empty string ("") and address does not contain an absolute URI, address must be a relative URI that is combined with BaseAddress to form the absolute URI of the requested data. If the QueryString property is not null, it is appended to address.
This method uses the RETR command to download an FTP resource. For an HTTP resource, the GET method is used.
You must call Stream.Close when finished with the Stream to avoid running out of system resources.
This member outputs trace information when you enable network tracing in your application. For more information, see Network Tracing in the .NET Framework.
The following code example opens the resource identified by uriString and displays the results on the system console. Note that the Stream returned by OpenRead is closed when the data has been read.
// Create a new WebClient instance. WebClient myWebClient = new WebClient(); // Download home page data. Console.WriteLine("Accessing {0} ...", uriString); // Open a stream to point to the data stream coming from the Web resource. Stream myStream = myWebClient.OpenRead(uriString); Console.WriteLine("\nDisplaying Data :\n"); StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(myStream); Console.WriteLine(sr.ReadToEnd()); // Close the stream. myStream.Close();

Autumn leaves
These things are found in just about every street around here, containers for people to throw leaves in. Must be a new budget cut. Given the fact that we have the most trees of any city in the Netherlands the pavements are swamped with leaves. In previous years these would be cleared by the city. Apparently it's now DIY time.

In a tall stockpot, bring all the ingredients except the salt, pepper, and butter to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes, or until each vegetable is easily pierced by the point of a knife. Pass soup through the medium disc of a food mill. Or skim the vegetables out of the liquid, pulse to a coarse puree in a food processor, and recombine the vegetables with the liquid. Season with salt and pepper. The soup can be refrigerated at this point for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 2 months. Bring the soup to a simmer. Stir in the butter just before serving.

In order to do that successfully, significant and continued investment will be required across Botswana's diamond pipeline and, in many areas, this is already in evidence.
Already the world's richest diamond mine, infrastructure construction began in 2009 to expand Jwaneng Mine. The project, Cut-8, is one of the largest ever investments by the Partnership.
Estimated to provide access to approximately 105 million carats of mainly high quality diamonds from approximately 89 million tonnes mined, Cut-8 is a crucial project for long-term global diamond supply, which is forecast to decline after 2020.43 It is also a crucial project for Botswana's economy and for job creation. Cut-8 is expected to contribute directly more than US$28 billion (in 2014 prices) to Botswana's economy and generate more than 1,000 jobs44 during the operational phase (2017-2029) when diamonds are extracted from the ground.
Based on these projections, PwC estimates that the project is expected to generate an additional contribution of US$3 billion (in 2014 prices) over the same period due to expenditure by suppliers and employees. Therefore, the total contribution of Cut-8 to Botswana's economy during the operational phase is estimated to be more than US$31 billion (in 2014 prices). For every person employed directly on the project, at least three jobs are estimated to be supported elsewhere in Botswana's economy. In total, Cut-8 is projected to support more than 4,500 jobs per year during the operational phase, either directly or indirectly.
As Jwaneng continues to expand, the Partnership is also looking at expansion options for the Orapa Mine, which has the potential to deliver further socio-economic benefits to the country.
While diamonds are a finite resource, Botswana remains one of the most prospective countries in the world for diamond exploration. The Partnership currently has three exploration projects under way in the country. Even at the early stages of exploration, these projects benefit the areas in which they are based, often by improving infrastructure and employing Batswana and suppliers. As investment upstream will help unlock the potential value of Botswana's diamonds, investment further downstream is essential to realise and preserve the value.
Almost all of Botswana's diamonds end up as jewellery, so increasing consumer demand for diamonds is the foundation of the Partnership's future success. More must be done to stimulate demand in both developed and emerging markets, especially given the increasing competition from other luxury products.
Allied to this is safeguarding the integrity of diamonds. The Partnership has already pioneered detection technology for synthetics and, with the pace of change becoming ever quicker, this must be maintained to uphold consumer confidence and protect Botswana's natural resource.
The move by De Beers of DBGSS to Gaborone in 2013 firmly established Botswana as one of the world's major diamond centres, acting as a catalyst to stimulate other parts of the economy. The challenge facing the country now, however, is how to generate greater value from the move.
Although around a quarter of De Beers' Sightholders have beneficiation factories in Botswana, the challenges in the diamond industry's midstream sector during 2015 have caused some to close their operations in Botswana.
While it is clear that there is not a single solution to this issue, it is incumbent upon all stakeholders to work together to help deliver sustainable solutions that will ensure the long-term viability of these operations.
It is also important that focus is maintained on training and skills development in all areas of the diamond value chain so that Batswana can continue to occupy positions at all levels. As this analysis shows, the Partnership has long been committed to providing training and skills, but this must be maintained if Botswana is to develop capabilities that enable it to compete more effectively in the global market.
Diamond sorting at DTC Botswana.
The Partnership has played an important role in funding social and economic progress by securing and realising high value from Botswana's natural resource. The challenge that Botswana now faces is to build on a base of wise development to create new areas of competitiveness and employment, while eventually moving to a post-diamond era.
With the non-mining sector now making up 70 per cent of the total value added to GDP, compared with less than 50 per cent in 2002,45 progress is being made. It is nevertheless clear that Botswana's economy remains heavily dependent on the diamond sector and on mining in particular, which is not labour intensive.
This creates a problem when demand for rough diamonds falls, as Botswana's economic fortunes are so closely entwined with diamond revenue. While prudent Government action in the last 50 years has mitigated this impact to some extent, a more balanced economy would insulate it.
The Partnership can play a part in helping Botswana achieve greater economic diversity, but it cannot do so alone. Arguably, its first responsibility is to continue to maximise the value of every Botswana diamond yet to be mined. This will provide the fiscal base to support further developmental investment, improve health and education, provide social safety nets and, importantly, support new, more sustainable sectors. As this analysis notes, the service sector was spurred by the relocation of DBGSS, and a number of small businesses have flourished as a result.
In addition, the Partnership must maintain its involvement with enterprise development. Tokafala is a good example. The three-year partnership between the Government, Debswana, De Beers and Anglo American is intended to foster the growth of commercially viable SMMEs in Botswana.
The Partnership provides a model of how public and private interests can work together for the long term. Central to this is an aligned vision, namely a deep appreciation of diamonds as a finite, luxury product, and a long-term approach to creating value from one of nature's treasures. The Partners will need to retain this long-term vision in order to deliver the next 50 years of development.

44 Cut-8 is projected to employ several part-time employees. The hours worked by the part-time employees has been used to convert the number of part-time jobs into the equivalent number of full-time jobs.

Entrepreneurship@UBC (e@UBC) is UBC's venture accelerator. If you are a committed and driven entrepreneur working on a start-up opportunity, e@UBC provides a wealth of resources and support dedicated to helping you build your venture. e@UBC offers entrepreneurial workshops, programs for market validation and business model development, mentorship, and startup space to help UBC entrepreneurs improve the odds of creating a successful venture. Select high potential ventures may be invited into e@UBC's Venture Builder program for intensive guidance from an executive in residence and the potential for funding by the e@UBC Seed Fund.
Entrepreneurship@UBC programs and resources are available to UBC-related startups. "UBC-related" means at least one of the founders of the startup must be a UBC student, faculty, staff, or recent alumna/alumnus (up to 5 years from graduation). If in doubt about your eligibility, give us a call!
Entrepreneurship@UBC is located at the heart of the main UBC campus, in the Graham Lee Innovation Centre on the lower level of the Robert H Lee Alumni Centre.
UBC is one of the largest centres of research and innovation in Western Canada, and as a result the University is an advocate for knowledge mobilization within and across educational disciplines. The University recognizes that an increasingly important way to accelerate knowledge mobilization and link research to business and community is to train the next generation of entrepreneurs. UBC has invested in programs that cultivate and support the entrepreneurial spirit within its students, faculty, staff and alumni.
Entrepreneurship@UBC is funded by UBC, government agencies, generous donors, and sponsors. We provide e@UBC programs and services to UBC ventures at no cost (for info about the e@UBC Seed Fund see below). While there is no dollar cost to you, we have high expectations for the ventures we work with. Building a venture is highly rewarding, and it is also very hard work. We manage our investment of time into ventures in terms of their depth of commitment, the ability to work effectively with EIRs and mentors, the desire to contribute to UBC entrepreneurial community building, and of course the potential of the venture itself.
Simply register with e@UBC and book into an orientation session. We'll learn about your venture, and you will learn about e@UBC's services and how to get started by booking time with an entrepreneur in residence.
Entrepreneurship@UBC reports to the VP Research & International, and provides its services to all UBC students, faculty, staff and recent alumni from any faculty, department, or affiliate. e@UBC has a strategic partnership with the Sauder School of Business, where some of the best entrepreneurship educators in the business develop and deliver e@UBC's educational programs such as the Lean Launchpad. e@UBC has also partnered with other faculties such as Applied Science to embed dedicated entrepreneurs in residence into the faculty.
The BC Technology Industry Association is a close e@UBC partner. We share industry mentors, programs, and best practices. At the BCTIA Centre for Growth on Great Northern Way the BCTIA generously provides dedicated startup space to e@UBC teams that we select for their high potential.
The e@UBC Seed Fund provides funding to high potential UBC ventures, using common commercial financing structures and terms. Typically, ventures are recommended for introduction to the Seed Fund by an e@UBC entrepreneur in residence who will help you learn to become "investor ready."
You can apply for the LLP Accelerator through your Venture Dashboard once you have registered with e@UBC. For more details on the LLP, see here. We generally schedule one LLP in the fall, and two or three LLP sessions in the spring. Since there are usually many more applications than there are spaces available, we recommend that you work with an EIR through Open Office to prepare you for the LLP. Applications that come with an EIR recommendation are given priority for spaces in the LLP.
Absolutely. If you intend to work on your venture full time, we can put you on the right path with programs such as the Lean Launchpad, and help you to build an effective venture team with the roles and skillsets that are critical for success. If instead you want your idea out in the world but your main focus will continue at the university, then we can facilitate the creation of an experienced founder team that will do the hard work of building a business.
e@UBC's Impact Venture stream, in partnership with Sauder S3I and Coast Capital iHub, is designed for impact-driven organizations that focus on important local and global challenges with a strong emphasis on maximizing positive impact in areas such as social, health, and environment. In the Impact Venture stream teams discover and validate a business model that can achieve the purpose-driven mission while fueling financial sustainability and growth of the venture. Facilitators and mentors include entrepreneurs and executives that have experience working with impact-focused organizations. Successful impact ventures may be considered for an impact investment from the e@UBC Seed Fund.

This recipe is native to North Bengal of Bangladesh. People here like to eat a lot of coconut. The recipe is unique because coconut flesh is cut into strips, rather than grated or blended to make a paste or milk. The cooked coconut strips are crunchy and make a great combination with the spicy chicken curry. It is served with white pulao or plain rice.
Serve with plain white pulao or rice.

ADDRESS: -- I went down to Di-Tanjong Restaurant on 19th May 2008 with my parents and sat down to order some food. I've ordered fried beef kway teow from waitress A. Later another waitress came to pass the cutlery but missed out mine. I called her and asked for cutlery. She asked me what I ordered. Thus I mentioned mee (noodles) thinking she would pass me a set of chopstick. However, what came to me is mee goreng (Fried noodles). I approached waitress A thinking that she might have got the order wrong and she asked me who I ordered from (anyway, she seems to be mending the cashier register at the moment between 11am-12pm) I said I ordered from her.
Giving her the benefit of the doubt that she might have forgotten that she served me earlier, I asked to check the sheet of paper where she wrote down the order. She was very reluctant which I don't understand why and kept asking me who I ordered from, which I said her (waitress A). As I didn't want to make a scene with my parents around, I went back to my seat disgusted.
What disgusted me the most about the experience is: It seems that the waitress were really out to defend herself when I only wanted to verify what was written in the receipt. Another thing is that they rather leave 1 customer unhappy by not addressing the issue with the customer. Unlike what I've experienced at this other eatery at Arab street where I accidentally broke a sheesha bottle. The manager spoke to me politely and were out to assure that it's "OK" and I won't be charged for breaking the bottle as it was an accident.
My question is: WHERE'S THE CUSTOMER'S SERVICE WHICH I EXPECTED and they have the cheek to ask for "SERVICE CHARGE". Here is the address of the restaurant: 845 Geylang Road #01-02 Tanjong Katong Complex.
Unhappy Customer. :(

LEWISBURG, Pa. — Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering Emily Geist, Class of '03, discusses her research to improve arthroscopic hip surgery.
Q: As part of your research, you are designing a computer-aided system that could help surgeons more precisely place their instruments during minimally invasive hip procedures. How will this system potentially change the way such surgeries are performed?
A: Arthroscopic hip surgery presents challenges for surgeons as they look for the best place to make an incision and position their instruments. Surgeons determine where to place their instruments based on many parameters.
In my research, I am trying to find out if we could take all of that information and have the computer do the math and suggest locations for the portal.
The system would not replace the surgeon, but it would offer information allowing the surgeon to make better decisions. The computer can calculate locations very quickly and tell surgeons how close they are to major arteries or indicate the quickest, safest path to the surgery site.
Q: Why is hip surgery more challenging than surgery on other joints?
A: Noninvasive surgery is so difficult because a portal incision is typically only a quarter-inch long, so the surgeon loses visibility except for the limited view from the inserted camera. Additionally, the hip joint is much deeper in the body and tighter geometry-wise than other joints because of the ball and socket anatomy, and there are a lot of critical structures around it to avoid, such as the sciatic nerve, the femoral vein and the femoral artery. One of the largest challenges for hip arthroscopy is placing the initial portal for correct access to the joint while avoiding critical neurovascular structures.
Q: How does the system you've designed work?
A: This system virtually increases joint visibility. It includes an encoder linkage that acts as a mechanical tracking device to record the position and orientation of surgical tools during a procedure. A visual display on the computer shows the surgeon's tools and the patient anatomy from various points of view. I am hoping to transform a passive device showing what the surgeon is doing into a more active system that suggests locations for where the incision should be and trajectories for where the tools should go.
Q: How can patients benefit from these advances?
A: The system would make a lot of smaller procedures easier to perform in a minimally invasive manner. Some research shows that injuries such as small tears in tissue or an uneven bone surface can be fixed with arthroscopic surgery, eliminating the need for more complex hip surgery later on. Arthroscopic surgery also has smaller incisions than traditional methods and has a shorter healing time, shorter hospital stays and a lower risk for infection.
Q: What are the next steps?
A: I'm continuing to test the system for accuracy. As a first step, I would like to build a simulator to serve as a training tool to give surgeons in training the most realistic experience possible. Experienced surgeons develop a feel and intuition about how to perform surgery, but newer surgeons would benefit from the kind of practice the system offers. Eventually, when it's as accurate it can be, I hope this technology will be used in the operating room.

From Indianapolis, Indiana, USA:
My 48 year old husband has type 2 diabetes, diagnosed about a year and a half ago. What are the side effects of the pill taken by men? Does it make a man feel numbness in his penis? If, so please explain.
I assume you mean the pill used to treat type 2 diabetes. Certainly individuals with diabetes may have a form of neuropathy which decreases the ability to have erections. The difficulty in having erections can be present at the time of diagnosis. This is more common than actually having the patient have a side effect from diabetes treatment medications.
Fortunately, this is treatable is some cases. I would suggest you have your husband see a physician regarding this problem.

Crude oil hits a new 52-week high at $58.64 per barrel.
Trading seems fun, exciting, exhilarating, etc. so it has a lot of draw to it. And many people won't dig deeper than the euphoric emotion that they feel. However, trading is MUCH harder than investing. And much of the industry is bent towards getting you to trade rather than invest.

Kimchi, Shrimp, and Soba Salad
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: We've been taught to use our pickle brine to marinade meat, so kimchi counts, too. Here, it works its magic on shrimp, puncturing it with flavor and then serving as the dressing for a noodle salad. —Ali Slagle
Serves: 4
16-ounce jar kimchi (or homemade equivalent)
3 1/2
tablespoons rice vinegar
3 1/2
tablespoons soy sauce
tablespoon freshly grated ginger
teaspoons sesame oil, plus more for coating noodles
ounces soba noodles
pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
cup shredded Napa cabbage
Sesame seeds, to garnish
- In a large pot, bring a lot of generously salted water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, strain the kimchi brine into a large bowl, add the rice vinegar, soy sauce, ginger, and sesame oil. Taste and adjust to your tastes. Then roughly chop the kimchi and stir it into the marinade.
- Once the water is boiling, add the shrimp and cook until just pink, about 1 to 2 minutes, depending on the size of shrimp. Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon and immediately place into the marinade. Cover, and let sit at room temperature for a half an hour, then transfer to the fridge while you finish prepping the rest of the salad. (The shrimp will keep in the fridge for 2 days.)
- Bring the water back to a boil and cook the soba noodles according to package instructions. When they're done, drain them, coat them with sesame oil to prevent sticking, and let cool.
- Add the soba and cabbage to the shrimp and toss to combine. Taste and adjust accordingly. Garnish with sesame seeds.
- This recipe is a Community Pick!

One hot photographer0:37
During a wedding ceremony as the bride was walking down the isle an unfortunate incident happened to the wedding photographer, her hair caught fire.
THIS photographer got more laughs than sympathy, when her hair caught fire just as she was trying to capture images of the bride walking down the aisle.
We've all heard about weddings that don't go to plan, but the focus usually falls on someone in the bridal party for all the wrong reasons. This time, it's the photographer who has ended up with the red face.
Durban-based Jacki Bruniquel accidentally performed the mother of all wedding blunders when her hair caught fire while she trying to get snaps of the bride as she was given away by her father.
The South African said on her blog: "While photographing Emma and Murrays wedding at Netherwood I stood a bit too close to a candle and my hair actually caught alight!"
In attempting to get the best photographs, Ms Bruniquel accidentally brushed by a candle in the church which set fire to her curly locks which had been pinned back for the occasion.
She kept taking pictures before she realised something was wrong, and patted down her head before running from the room.
The wedding party didn't seem to bat an eyelid, though, and just enjoyed the humour of the moment with a few laughs.
Just in case Ms Bruniquel hoped to forget all about it, the entire incident was caught on camera by a videographer who happened to be standing directly behind her.
To her credit, Ms Bruniquel maintains it is one job she won't forget.
"It was funny. It was certainly a wedding I will never forget that is for sure and my hair did actually need a trim! (although I have to say that it hasn't been quite the same since then!!)"

A Leper's Wisdom
There is so much I do not know,
for I did not live a life full of beauty.
Mine was something else,
but in spite of that, or perhaps
because of it, I know something
about faith, instead.
About the gift of simply
being here. About what can be
endured, survived.
About why the sun bothers
to rise over my humble terrace,
just as it ascends the gates of some
grand distant castle.
Quit trying to make perfect
an imperfect world—
propping up one thing after another
in desperation, when everything
is perpetually on its way
to the ground.
Dear one, great skeptic
of the inevitable, you are
duped by this futile notion
again and again.
Stop wasting time.

The Palestinian terrorist group Hamas has once again triggered a series of events leading to the deaths of children and innocent civilians – this time, an attack on an area including a UN school that has left 15 people dead. After a third discovery of Hamas rockets in a UN school this week, the White House nonetheless condemned the attack.
According to the Associated Press, the White House did not go so far as to explicitly condemn Israel for the aftermath of the attack, but instead condemned the shelling of the area – from which the IDF had credible evidence to believe Hamas was firing rockets into Israel. The shelling itself, according to Palestinians, was an offensive IDF action, though the IDF has explained that it had reason to believe the area was being used as a base from which to attack Israel. The White House said in a statement it was "extremely concerned" with Palestinians not having their safety guaranteed in UN buildings without any mention of the safety of Israelis affected by the use of UN headquarters to house weaponry.
Previously Wednesday, the United Nations itself objected to Israel's incursion into Gaza, with Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon calling the attack "outrageous," but not mentioning the use of UN schools to hide rockets and the extremely overt call on Hamas's part for Palestinians to serve as human shields.
Overt condemnations of Israel by the United States government have happened before – even President Ronald Reagan condemned the Israeli attack of a nuclear reactor in Iraq in 1981. However, under the Obama administration, it has increasingly appeared over the years that such statements are not isolated incidents of condemnation, but attempts to prevent Israel from fully realizing itself or ensuring the security of its citizens. The Obama administration has not only condemned attacks but also the construction of residential areas for Israel citizens on three occasions.
During the current operation in Gaza, the Obama administration has repeatedly called for ceasefires when it has been abundantly clear that Hamas would not agree to such a thing, thus demanding in essence that Israel stop defending itself from rocket attacks that threaten areas as far from Gaza as Tel Aviv. The Obama administration, and Secretary of State John Kerry in particular, have triggered a flurry of criticism from Israeli officials that appear to now merely hope that Obama will go away.
Those Israeli officials have a job to do, and ridding UN buildings of terrorist activity is paramount on that list of duties. Wednesday – the same day the United States condemned an attempt to rid a UN building of Gaza terrorists – three IDF soldiers were killed entering a UN building that Hamas terrorists booby-trapped specifically to kill Israelis. Rocket arsenals have been found in three separate UN schools, not just office buildings, and it all appears to be part of a plan: the IDF has found Hamas manuals that explicitly instruct terrorists to use hospitals and schools to hide weapons.
Infiltrating these areas and ridding them of terrorist elements is, as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said, the only way to end violence in the region, and the only end that Israel sees fit for this kinetic operation. The United States, as a longtime committed ally to Israel, should support such an endeavor. The global health of American moral ideals does not benefit from the strength of Hamas. Yet time and again the Obama administration has chosen the path of least resistance before the international community, choosing to harangue Israel on peace rather than silence the shouts of war from Hamas.

Finally I am not alone!!!!
There are others who experience these things, and I agree with you, I feel like these images, thoughts, sightings, sounds, they must come from somewhere.
I'll tell you one thing that happened to me once when I was wide awake as a kid. I remember seeing a Chief holding a sleeping cat in his arms, he saw me too, looked at me and smiled, I could hear the cat purring. I think he was a spirit, because I could see through him.
I believe that at one time, Planet Earth used to have a lot more 'schizophrenics' on it. I think the DSMIV is full of crap, and there is nothing wrong with people who can see into both worlds. Imagine if we all plugged into the Universe, into one another, I think the world would be a better place, and perhaps people wouldn't feel so alone all of the time. maybe we'd actually learn to Love and not live in FEAR every waking moment.
I am of the belief that we are currently living in the fourth dimension, and only a few of us have learned how to ride the wave of space and time.
Welcome to the club my friend, I will see you on the flipside.
If I remember correctly...I said "not all supposedly insane people are insane"...and "perhaps not a glitch in the matrix...but something"...
I'll tell you what, when you start treating people who have sliced there face, arms and bodies with razor blade because they thought that if they had no skin the voices would stop only to find out this hasn't worked and then spent the best part of a month on suicide watch in a constant emotional state, then tell me it's a "glitch in the matrix".
And what proof do you have of that? You just think it's a disorder, a problem, an illness, something that shouldn't be...however, you don't KNOW that...
It is a mental d-order actually. But a very small one.

Hello lightofliberty-
You seem to have a smart mind, your post was thought out and you have some interesting ideas as to what is causing it. My thoughts on the matter is maybe your mind could be tapping into past events (or even future) but its only fragments, kinda like a TV with rabbit ears where you move the ears around to get different signals. The different areas you go you tap into different events.
It could also be maybe that you are hearing your brain sort through information but you are only hearing bits of information because of how fast our brains work. Kinda like a song that sticks in your head that you can't get it out, I have had this happen many times and it seems the harder I try and make the song stop the more it wants to play in my head again. Usually when I accept it and let it play in my head without fighting the song, it seems to go away rather quick. The more I fight the longer it stays because trying to fight it makes you think about it even more. You must remember YOU are in control of your mind not anyone else.
If this is something that bothers you try to not think about it. Thinking about making something stop, only gives things like that more power and to play louder. I like to close my eyes and feel the warmth of energy pulse through my body. When you close your eyes feel the inside of your body, its like a tiny electrical tingly feeling all over the body if that makes sense. Remember you are in control of your body and mind nobody else, feel the pure energy that your body produces, pulsing like the sun.
