The Microsoft Surface 2 is a definite upgrade over 2012's Surface RT. It's faster, with a sharper screen, and houses better cameras. If you're choosing between the older (still available) and newer model, the newer is the decidedly better option, even with its $100 premium. A far more appropriate question, however, is whether a Surface tablet in general is right for you.
There are two main issues with the Surface 2 that keep it from achieving true excellence. First -- with the notable exception of Microsoft Office 2013, which is bundled for free -- Windows RT is still not compatible with legacy Windows programs. (In other words: any old Windows program that worked on your XP, Vista, or Windows 7 PC won't run here.) Second, although the Windows app store has made some gains in app breadth and depth since its debut last year, it still lags painfully behind app stores from Amazon, Apple, and Google.
Those seeking legacy software compatibility can opt instead for the
Meanwhile, even at $449, the Surface 2 is pretty expensive for a tablet with its aforementioned software limitations, and there are already other viable options like the Asus Transformer Book T100 out there -- a $349 tablet with a keyboard, running full Windows 8.1.
Though Microsoft offers a better package than it did last year, the Surface 2 ultimately suffers from the same problems as the original. And until the company can better address those issues inherent to Windows RT -- and the Windows Store in particular -- this will continue to be the case.
If not for its new silver-grayish backside, you'd be hard-pressed to notice the physical differences between the Surface 2 and Surface RT. The new tablet is subtly refined in a number of ways.
The body is ever-so-slightly thinner and a wee bit lighter. The kickstand now has two different angles: 24 and 45. The 45-degree angle gives it a lower center of gravity, allowing it to actually sit on your lap while you type. Attempting to keep the Surface RT from tipping over while typing on your lap was one of my pet peeves about the tablet last year, so I'm glad it's been addressed. However, the metal still does dig into your skin if your quads are exposed. Also, it's a bit too easy to accidentally push it into the 45-degree angle when holding down the power button to shut the tablet down.

For the most part, the Surface 2 can be described almost exactly as a Surface RT. When in landscape mode, there's a volume rocker, headphone jack, and speaker grill along the left edge, and Micro-HDMI, a full USB port, and another speaker grill along the right. The microSD card slot is still hidden behind the kickstand, but it has been moved down a couple of inches to allow for easier access.
The front camera gets a healthy upgrade to 3.5 megapixels, and the back camera is now 5 megapixels; both are up from "720p" on the Surface RT. On the Surface RT, you could easily see the screw heads behind the kickstand, holding the tablet together. These are no longer visible on the Surface 2; this is another example of the Microsoft engineering team's attention to small details that ultimately do matter when taking the tablet's overall quality into account.
New Touch and Type
Both the new Touch and Type Covers are still sold separately at $119 and $129, respectively, but now include a useful backlighting feature. They're also thinner than before and feel a bit more comfortable when held. When they're used as covers, the whole package doesn't feel as thick.
The Type Cover keys are quieter when struck, but the keys don't depress as far, which took some getting used after using the Type Cover 1 consistently for a few days. However, the Type Cover 2's touch pad is now flush with the palm rest and just isn't as comfortable to use. Typing on the Type Cover 2 feels more accurate.
Windows RT 8.1
Windows RT -- even in its new shinier, version 8.1 form -- is still the poor man's Windows 8.1. It still won't run legacy programs, but anything found in the Windows Store is fair game. It does, however, include a full version of Microsoft Office 2013.
It's clear Microsoft has thought about what makes a good interface, which is where it perhaps went wrong with its original touch interface from 2012. Things still aren't perfect, but without completely re-inventing the wheel -- again -- Microsoft has made sensible and thoughtful changes that noticeably improve the flow and efficiency of interacting with apps and settings. Whether it's displaying tiles instead of slides in the Pictures app or including a left navigation bar in Xbox Music, things just make more sense.
Previously, accessing your array of apps was a two-step process -- swipe up from the bezel and tap "All apps" -- but now, simply swiping up from the home screen takes you directly to the array. It's a small but significant change.
Tiles can now be made even smaller than before, allowing you to fit substantially more on screen at once. They also no longer feel stuck to the screen and can be moved around much more freely.
The settings menu has been nearly completely overhauled with a more streamlined interface that surfaces -- no pun intended, but perhaps actually intended -- options you previously had to access the legacy Windows Control Panel in order to reach.
Options as simple as Sleep parameters or Date and Time settings were buried in an interface that wasn't made to support touch, especially for those of us with fatter fingers. But now many of those options have been brought to the touch interface, making adjusting settings a lot less headache-inducing.
Windows traditionalists will rejoice: the Start button makes its much-appreciated return, offering quick shortcuts to the Control Panel, search, Task Manager, file explorer, and other options traditionally associated with the Start menu pre-Windows 8.
Overall, there are way more options in settings than there were before. They're easier to find and access, but the sheer number may be overwhelming to some. Thankfully, Microsoft foresaw this as a potential problem and took action: the top level of the settings menu will add a shortcut to any recent setting you've changed, so you don't have to go digging for settings you access often.
A significant camera app upgrade; Xbox Music still great
Given the bare-bones nature of the original native camera app for Windows RT 8.0, it's not a huge surprise that the app has seen some upgrades. What is impressive, though, is just how far Microsoft takes those advancements.
Swiping up from the bottom bezel while in the camera app displays a few new options, including a timer and an exposure feature that increases or decreases the amount of light in the shot. There's also a full-space panorama feature -- not unlike the one found in the Nexus 10 and 7 -- allowing you to capture an entire scene, including the floor, ceiling (or sky), and everything in between.
It does a better job at capturing the spaces directly above or below you than Google's tablets, but I either don't have a steady enough hand to stitch together a smooth cohesive picture or the app needs to do a better job at leading me through the steps of creating a panorama. I could never complete a picture that didn't look like a digital Picasso painting.

This house is pretty compact, with only 325 square feet inside and another 325 square feet of patio under a pergola, it certainly is a Tiny House.

The European Commission (EU) has been investigating Spanish giants Real Madrid following allegations that they have received illegal state aid, the decision on which is overdue.
According to the Independent, it is alleged that the football club and the Madrid City Council had agreed on a favourable deal for land around the Bernabeu stadium which is to be redeveloped into a lucrative new shopping mall and hotel complex.
The report further said that the club's pre-eminence in the transfer market and their ability to borrow money is partly dependent on the success of the development, as well as the construction of a roof over the stadium, which will then be subject to a naming rights auction.
The allegation against Real is that their transactions with Madrid city council, dating back to a 1996 agreement between the two parties, constitute illegal state aid under article 87 of the Treaty of the European Community.
The report further said that it is alleged that the council hugely overestimated its debt to the football club in order that the former could give Real the prime city-centre land they require for their new development.
However, the club dismissed the allegations, saying that they had not received any 'special prividleges' in its real estate activities since it has always been subject to the then current legislation and has received the same treatment as any other entity.
The club further claimed that the valuation of Las Tablas in 2011, which found its value to have increased 54-fold, was carried about by Madrid City Council, and was therefore "independent". (ANI)

August 2012 Plant Profile: Magnolia grandiflora (dwarf cultivars)
The bold presences of the Evergreen Southern Magnolia is truly a sight to behold in late summer as its creamy white blossoms unfurl, emitting a sweet, pleasantly pungent aroma that fills the warm air.
One of the problems, however, is its eventual size. Most of the cultivars readily available will easily get too large for a small urban garden, but there are a handful of selections that stay at a reasonable height, yet still provide the exquisite, deep green, glossy foliage and russet brown undersides and, of course, the ethereal blooms in summer.
The one photographed here is one we have here at CUH called 'Baby Doll'. Unfortunately, it's not readily available in the trade, but it possesses a wonderful mounded compact habit for a small tree. It stands about 10ft. tall and about 15 feet wide in canopy.
More commonly available in the trade is 'Little Gem'. A handsome, but sometimes overused selection. This still gets to be quite large when fully mature at 20-25 feet high, but much smaller compared to the standard selections.
A little newer on the market, but appears to be quite promising are 'Teddy Bear' and 'Baby Grand'. The wonderful russet undersides are very prominent in 'Teddy Bear' as the densely leaved selection is calling to be embraced. It has rounder foliage and a tidy and fairly uniform habit. Another fine selection that has proven itself to be a performer even in not so ideal conditions is the newest selection dubbed 'Baby Grand'. It has a wonderful short stature that will make it great for large container work and it seems to be a great bloomer even on a young, establishing plant.
Magnolia grandiflora could almost be a staple in almost every landscape/garden. The plant looks wonderful year round, adds a nice tropical feel to the Pacific Northwest landscapes here and it's fabulous flowers in this month are an absolute treat!
Common Name: Southern Magnolia, Evergreen Magnolia
Location: CUH West Entry
Origin: Dwarf selections are of garden origin.
Height and spread: Most dwarf cultivars stay around 15-25 feet in height and about 15-20 feet wide.
Bloom Time: Late Summer into Autumn

The corner of Prentice and Shrewsbury streets is not a spot where one would expect to get held up and robbed, at least not around 3 p.m. on a bright fall day.
Yet, it was exactly where scores of drivers, including myself, were socked with $200 fines for failure to stop for a guy who appeared to be recklessly stepping in the path of our cars.
The Police Department will tell you otherwise. It will tell you that guy was a plainclothes police officer involved in one of the department's crosswalk sting operations, "Operation Cross Safe."
According to Police Chief Gary Gemme, the operation, which has been ongoing for a number of years, has netted more than 6,000 citations during that period.
"The department does not sanction officers recklessly putting themselves in the path of the moving car," Chief Gemme said, noting that one of the top priorities for those involved in the operation "is the safety of the officers, pedestrians, and drivers."
"The officers participating in these operations are advised to enter the roadway via the crosswalk where there is a reasonable expectation that the motor vehicle operator will observe them and yield to them as required by law."
Few people would disagree with the Police Department on the merits of enforcing crosswalk etiquette, which rests on the general rule that pedestrians always have the right of way and, in this particular case, if a pedestrian is in a legal crosswalk, motorists by law must yield to them.
Indeed, under the law both drivers and pedestrians are required to exercise good judgment on our roads and highways. A pedestrian cannot, for example, act like a jaywalker, that is, he or she cannot cross a street illegally or in a reckless manner.
Yet the latter was just what it appeared the plainclothes police officer in Monday's sting operation was doing.
In my case, I was almost upon the crosswalk when he suddenly stepped in the path of my car. I applied my brakes, and he stepped back. I was already in the crosswalk by then, so I continued through, only to be pulled over and handed a $200 ticket.
With so many cars being pulled over, it took about 15 minutes or more to process my ticket, which gave me some time to watch the operation in progress. During that period, there were several other cars caught in the sting by the same officer going back and forth across the street. Strangely, not one regular pedestrian used the crossing during that time. I suppose it isn't one of the busiest crosswalks in the city, which raises the question of why the sting was mounted there.
According to Chief Gemme, 560 pedestrians have been struck by motor vehicles in the city since January 2012. If true, that is an alarming number, and thus would warrant the department's enforcement efforts.
But there is a big difference between a real motor vehicle violation and one that is manufactured. The sting operation was a manufactured event. Absent this event, scores of motorists would not have gone home Monday evening with $200 fines. They would not be facing a possible two points added to their insurance coverage, and they would not be considering whether to pay $300 to fight their ticket.
It is essential, then, that in such an operation the police officers create as realistic a scenario as possible. A police officer stepping into the path of a moving car that is about to pass through a crosswalk is not being "reasonable." He is acting recklessly. And if the shoe were on the other foot, he would be charged with jaywalking.

Twice in recent weeks open source projects have surprised me with their lack of openness. In both cases, developers acted or spoke out in such a way as to intentionally push other developers away from their work.
Case one: Evil icon thieves
The first incident originated with KDE's Oxygen project, an icon redesign on track for inclusion in KDE 4. Oxygen designer David Vignoni expressed his disapproval that someone outside the project team put together a theme package incorporating the project's publicly accessible icons. He asked the theme packager to remove the Oxygen icons. Commenters on his blog cheered.
A few days later, Wade Olson of KDE's Marketing Working Group attacked the theme packager in his own blog post, calling the second-hand theme morally suspect and a violation of the Social Contract. Commenters on his blog cheered as well, and soon began to attack the theme packager in comments on the theme's page at the art portal gnome-look.org.
The Oxygen icon set was available under two licenses: Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0, or GNU LGPL. Both permit reuse by others. The icons themselves were available via public Subversion repository. There was no license violation or misappropriation, a fact that both Vignoni and Olson affirmed.
Criticism of the second-hand icon theme centered on the notion that the Oxygen project proper should get to release the icons first -- since the official Oxygen theme wasn't dubbed a public release yet, no one else should be allowed to publicly release them either. As one commenter put it, "What about the people who spend two years of work on this? Should not they have the right to publish it in their project before you copy it?"
But the answer is a clear and resounding "no." When you choose to place your work on a publicly accessible server, and when you decide to place it under a free software license, you give up the right to control what other people do with it.
The secondary complaint -- that it is wrong to release the icons before the project declares them "ready" -- is entirely incompatible with the "release early, release often" philosophy. Artwork is no different from executable code in either regard.
The fact that free software licenses and the open source development model force everyone to relinquish that level of control is intentional, and is key to making community-driven development work.
Case two: We have enough ideas without you
The second incident cropped up in the GIMP's User Interface Redesign effort. When I researched the GIMP UI brainstorm in October, I was struck by the stark "us" versus "them" language used in the project.
The project's wiki repeatedly makes the distinction between the team and everyone else. Creation of new accounts is disabled, so that only the team can make changes.
Under the heading "got ideas?," where you would normally expect an open source project to invite participation, interested parties are instead directed to submit their comments to the GIMP UI brainstorm. "It is moderated by our team, we listen to what you show us and broaden our horizons."
But that absence of an open invitation to contribute is topped by direct rejection. In August, an excited would-be participant learned about the project and wrote to the gimp-developer mailing list volunteering to help. GIMP UI Redesign team leader Peter Sikking replied, saying, "I am afraid that I do not have positions open at the moment."
Elsewhere in that same message, and in other posts to gimp-developer, Sikking's comments back up the notion that he regards the GIMP UI redesign as his team's project and his team's alone, and that that team has no room for anyone else.
Clearly the team members are qualified, but refusing to entertain even the possibility that there are other individuals with worthwhile contributions flies in the face of free software and open source ideals. It is Cathedral thinking, not Bazaar.
Free software acknowledges Bill Joy's Law -- that no matter who you are, most of the smartest people work somewhere else -- and opens up the development process for the express purpose of subverting it.
If you are afraid of openness, you have come to the wrong place
The root of both problems is an unwillingness to commit to a truly open development process.
That is explicitly clear in the GIMP UI case, but perhaps less so in the Oxygen case. What directly sparked the ire of the Vignoni and Olson was that an unapproved person did something with the icons. And the distinction between approved and unapproved people stems from Oxygen's "restricted to us" team of artists.
Through the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, you can examine the Oxygen project's site all the way back to 2005. Ever since the beginning, two things have remained unchanged: the only images available are "previews" licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs, and the team does not invite outside participation.
Contrast that with the Tango project, which invites participation openly -- in multiple places on its Web site, and through multiple avenues. Contrast the GIMP UI redesign with the GIMP project as a whole, which invites and receives patches, bug reports, and ideas from scores of outsiders.
Which is the way it is supposed to work: software freedom doesn't begin and end in the COPYING file; it applies to the whole process.
No matter what the Oxygen and GIMP UI teams may think, opening up to outside participation makes a team stronger, not weaker. And it is a key part of the philosophy that created the open source software movement. Listening to other people's ideas -- love 'em or hate 'em -- is not optional.
By all objective standards, Vignoni and the other Oxygen artists are doing beautiful artwork, and Sikking and his team have done excellent work pushing the GIMP's interface in a better direction. But by restricting their respective processes, they are hurting themselves and others. They hurt themselves by shutting out good ideas and by losing available manpower, and hurt others by preventing cross-pollination and by discouraging newcomers from helping out.
I have no doubt that Sikking meant no harm when he told that volunteer on gimp-developer that his help wasn't needed. I have talked to Sikking and he is a sincere and hard worker. But that volunteer stopped writing to gimp-developer. Tell me: was driving him away worth it? I don't think so.

In addition to the 333 players who have been invited to the Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, plenty more will be evaluated in a series of regional combines that began this weekend in Los Angeles.
The league announced the dates for the regional combines last week. Others will occur on February 16 in Houston, February 17 in Cleveland, March 2-3 in New York/New Jersey, March 9 in Tampa, March 10 in Chicago, March 16-17 in Atlanta, March 23-24 in Seattle, and March 23-24 in Baltimore.
A Super Regional with the best of the best of the players who perform at the regional combines will be invited to Dallas on April 7-8.
The NFL started this American Idol-style process last year, as a way to ensure no one falls through the cracks while also reducing the costs to the various teams of having to go see the potential prospects in other places and at other times. With plenty of undrafted players becoming Pro Bowlers and Hall of Famers, the chances of finding a gem under a rock justifies turning over as many of them as possible.

Last week I talked about being a big fan of the late English monarch Richard III, of Shakespearean fame. Recently, archaeologists found what they believe to be his remains under a parking garage that was once a church. Since my family has roots in England, I find all of this fascinating.
Last week I talked about being a big fan of the late English monarch Richard III, of Shakespearean fame. Recently, archaeologists found what they believe to be his remains under a parking garage that was once a church. Since my family has roots in England, I find all of this fascinating.
At one point I joined the Richard III Society. I am no longer a member, but at first I worried its ranks would be populated with individuals engaged in dense and difficult to penetrate academic arguments on the merits of Richard�s defense. I was wrong. While some of the late king�s defenders are indeed academics, there are also housewives, businessmen and individuals like myself who are simply passionate about history. And the best part about the membership came in the form of validation. Finding others who were as fascinated with the drama surrounding the political intrigue and personalities that peopled the War of the Roses told me I was not a nutjob (well, not as much of one as I suspected), and I was in good, even esteemed company.
Is it weird to want exoneration for a man who died centuries before I was born? The press seems to think so. And perhaps it�s an odd pursuit to some, but there are other groups just as bent on finding justice for the likes of Tom Dooley, of �hang down your head� fame, and maligned sports figures like non-Hall of Famer Pete Rose. Why would their passion count any more than mine?
And what draws me, an American woman of a certain age, to a king vanquished and mocked in death following a decisive battle he should have won? Although that question has many answers, my primary issue is that Richard has been given so little credit for the legal legacy he left behind.
Richard III is the father of the modern system of granting bail to inmates. Before his intervention an accused simply languished in jail until trial. He encouraged reforms that gave indigents a fair shake in the criminal justice system and promoted literacy among his people. Characterized as a hunchback by Tudor toadies, the recent exhumation of his remains proved that he suffered from simple scoliosis, a condition that affects about one out of every 100 people.
We can�t always take history at face value. What smacks of the bloody reign of a brutal man must be viewed in the context of the times. The head that wore the crown often stayed there only through masterful political maneuvering. Both Henry VIII and his daughter Elizabeth managed to seriously cull the herd of British royals during their times on the throne. It was simply the way things were done in those in those royal eat royal times.
And now Richard appears no longer lost. Recreations of his likeness using his skull show a man not pinched of face or sour, as his Tudor followers would like history to show, but aesthetically pleasant. Ricardians are thrilled to see the spotlight shine on the real Richard III. Perhaps by reexamining the political propaganda of the times, we can finally see the monarch beneath the historical persona.

When a car hit Cincinnati resident Kathleen Putman during a bicycle ride about 10 years ago, doctors told her she may never walk again.
But after a month in a coma and through physical therapy and stubbornness, the 56-year-old paratriathlete went from barely being able to move her arms to completing the 31st Life Time Tri Chicago.
"I was determined," said Putman, who got hooked on triathlons shortly before the accident. "I woke up and said, 'I'm doing it again.'"
Putman was among about 7,000 athletes who swam, biked and ran in Sunday's event, which drew longtime professionals as well as amateurs, some of whom trained for half a year or more beforehand.
Among the more elite participants, Hunter Kemper from Colorado Springs, Colo., and Alicia Kaye, from Clermont, Fla., each won $10,000 for finishing first in the men's and women's divisions, respectively. Chicago resident Ben Collins finished in second place and Stuart Hayes, from the United Kingdom, took third. In the women's division, Helle Frederiksen of Denmark took second place, and Daniela Ryf of Switzerland, took third.
One of 22 paratriathletes who participated in Sunday's event, Putman swam with a helper's guidance, rode a tricycle and used canes during the running portion, walking as quickly as she can.
"I may not be as fast as I want to be, but it's something," said Putman, as she was cooling off at the finish line Sunday morning.
She said she completed the race in about five hours and said she was happy to hit a personal best during the biking portion.
But for Putman, the event was particularly special because it marked her first time at the Chicago triathlon since 2004. Back then, Putman was supposed to partake in the event along with about 10 friends. The accident kept her from participating, but she still showed up in a wheelchair to support her friends.
The same wheelchair is now stuck somewhere in the basement of her house, she said.
"If I were going to say anything to anybody, it would be, 'Don't give up' and 'Do what you can to move forward,'" she said.
Putman, who has been in four other triathlons this year, said she exercises simply because she can and has to make sure she stays in shape so she doesn't lose the progress her body made since the crash.
"I don't want to go back to that wheelchair," she said.
Other triathlon participants also pushed through personal fears and injuries this weekend to achieve their goals.
Chicago resident Marcell Varciag, 29, said he did not learn how to swim until the beginning of this year, when he started to train along with his friend Laura Chavez for the event.
"I hate swimming," he said, as he was still panting at the finish line from the running, which came at the end of the triathlon. "The water was so dark and scary as hell. I was glad to be out."
Varciag said he set out to complete a triathlon after having a tough year in 2012.
"I really wanted to prove to myself and to others that I can finish what I start," he said, adding that he wanted show his 16-month-old daughter, Grace Kelly Varciag, that she could also achieve anything as well if she pursues it.
Varciag also had to push through physical obstacles after a car hit him about a month ago while he was training on his bicycle in the city. Varciag's right leg was pierced by the car's license plate, and he had to spend more than a month in recovery. But it wasn't enough to deter him from his goal of finishing the triathlon. Next year, Varciag said he hopes to compete at a higher level by participating in all the Ironman triathlons in the Midwest.
For other Chicago triathlon participants, the event represented a comfortable rhythm in their busy schedule.
Like many other people, Zoltan Varga, 43, a St. Louis resident, said he first got interested in triathlons because he just wanted to get fit.
More than 230 competitions later, he said that participating and preparing for triathlons is now a way of life for him.
Originally from Hungary, Varga, who has done triathlons since 1986, said he has gotten to travel and meet many people because of his interest in the sport.
"It's very much a part of who I am," he said. "It's more than a hobby."

Radiation therapy is used to treat cancer and other diseases. It uses high-energy particles to damage the DNA in the cancer cells. This makes the cells unable to grow or divide.
There are 2 main types of radiation therapy:
In certain cases, your doctor may recommend a combination of these. Radiation is often used with other types of treatment, such as surgery,
chemotherapy, and immunotherapy, which stimulates the immune system to fight infection.
This fact sheet will focus on internal radiation therapy.
This procedure is done to:
Radiation therapy is used to treat
solid tumors such as prostate cancer, breast cancer, and head and neck cancers.
Internal radiation can cause side effects. The radiation damages your own healthy cells as well as the cancer cells.
The side effects will vary depending on the type and location of treatment. Common side effects of radiation include, but are not limited, to:
Discuss the specific side effects that you may have with your doctor.
Factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
A woman who is pregnant or could be pregnant should avoid exposure to radiation. It could harm a developing fetus.
You may need local anesthesia, which will numb a small area, or
general anesthesia, which keeps you asleep during the procedure.
The radiation source will be placed inside your body on or near the affected area. This provides higher doses of radiation in a shorter time. The radioactive sources are in the form of wires, seeds, or rods. This treatment is mostly used for cancers of the head and neck,
cervix, and
prostate. The 2 main types of internal radiation are:
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
How long it will take depends on the type of cancer treated and the method of internal radiation
Anesthesia prevents pain during the procedure. You may be sore when recovering from the procedure depending on where the radioactive material was placed.
You will stay in the hospital until the implant is removed, or in the case of a permanent implant, when the radioactivity has decreased. High-dosage implants are usually removed within a matter of minutes. Low-dosage implants may stay in for a few days. Permanent implants lose their radioactivity within a few days.
You will return to a hospital room while the implant is in place. While the radiation is implanted, you will follow these precautions to prevent transmitting radiation to others:
During treatment, your doctor will want to see you at least once a week. You may have routine blood tests to check for the effects of radiation on your blood cells.
After treatment is completed, you will have regular visits to monitor healing and to make sure the treatment affected the disease as planned. Follow-up care will vary for each person. Care may include further testing, medication, or rehabilitative treatment.
Be sure to follow your
doctor's instructions.
After arriving home, contact your doctor if any of the following occur:
In case of an emergency, call for emergency medical services right away.

text: High Nitrogen prices and a short supply of fertilizer are driving a big demand for livestock manure. But growers now find that manure is in short supply, too. Most manure from confined hog and poultry units is purchased in multiyear contracts. Growers pay for the manure and pay for it to be applied by big rigs that inject it into the ground where it will most benefit the crop and keep the neighbors happy. Crop producers who can still find manure should consider it liquid gold — a very good buy for 2008.

UK Attorney general backs legalising of phone-tap evidence
Cites US wire-tapping success
Phone-tap evidence could be admitted as evidence in court as the attorney general signals a change in UK Government policy. Lord Goldsmith told The Guardian newspaper that phonetap evidence is a "key tool" that should be used.
Goldsmith, the Government's senior law officer, indicated that the current laws banning wiretap evidence could be changed in a bid to fight organised crime.
"I'm personally convinced we have to find a way of avoiding the difficulties," he said. "I do believe there are ways we can do that. Otherwise we're depriving ourselves of a key tool to prosecute serious and organised crime and terrorism".
Goldsmith is currently on a visit to the US where he has discussied the use of wire-tap evidence with the attorney general there, Alberto Gonzales. "What I'm being told here is that the admissibility of intercept evidence is critical to some of their most difficult cases," he told The Guardian. "They have put the top five mafia bosses in prison as a result of it."
Official government policy is still to maintain the ban on phone-tap evidence, and security services and police have backed the ban amidst worries that investigation techniques would become apparent via the recordings.
Prosecutors have also traditionally worried about the lifting of the ban because of the volumes of material that defendants might request. "We may need help from the legislature and the judges to avoid the agencies being swamped with irrelevant requests," said Goldsmith.
The news of Goldsmith's change of heart comes as 20 Italians, many of them police, were arrested over wire-tap evidence abuse. Phone company security chiefs and police are implicated in a case involving the gathering of surveillance on celebrities, footballers and politicians dating as far back as 1997.
Reports from Italy suggest that the leaking of wire-tap evidence to the press is commonplace in the run up to trials.

recently, i bought some Arduino clones known as the Teensy 2.0 from PJRC. the device is thumbnail size at 1.2 in. by 0.7 in., a ATMEGA32, and boasts 25 I/O, 7PWM, and 12 analog pins. there are many small clones available on the market, but most of the designs require you to use a FTDI breakout board. i was really sold because the Teensy includes a USB jack and all for $16 to $19 for the model with pins already attached. the ++ version offers 46 I/0, 130MB and is only a few dollars more.
i have purchased these as part of a wearable i am designing and hopefully i will be telling you all about very soon.

Fugitive Slave Act
The second of June was the day set for Burns' return to the South. On that day, an estimated 50,000 people gathered in Court Square and along State Street between the courthouse and Boston Harbor to protest his extradition. A phalanx of U.S. marshals, soldiers, and marines, reinforced by Massachusetts militia, and 200 volunteers, who were described by Mary Seaver as "all the worst blacklegs and pimps of the city," escorted the recaptured slave from the courthouse to T Wharf, approximately half a mile away, where a boat waited to carry him out to a U.S. revenue cutter in the harbor that would take him back to Virginia. Burns' defense attorney, Richard Henry Dana, Jr., called it a "vile procession." As Burns passed, the crowds lining the streets booed, hissed, and shouted in protest. Businesses along State Street closed for the day, and buildings were draped with black fabric. One group of protestors inscribed a large black coffin with the word "Liberty," and another flew the American flag upside down.
The "Vile Procession"The Seavers were fervent abolitionists and Mary's letter to her father is a profound and emotional description of the Anthony Burns trial and its aftermath. The case sent Boston into a tailspin, and newspapers, broadsides, and speeches were filled with denunciations of Judge/Commissioner Loring, Burns' owner Suttle, Mayor Jerome Van Crowninshield Smith, Major-General Benjamin Franklin Edmands (commander of the militia), U.S. Marshal Watson Freeman, and President Franklin Pierce. See online presentations of broadsides denouncing Burns' rendition: The Man is Not Bought! and Murderers, Thieves and Blacklegs Employed by Marshall Freeman. Anticipating further trouble after a riot at the courthouse on 26 May in which a deputy marshal had been killed, Mayor Smith issued a warning to the citizens of Boston and instituted martial law to preserve order.
The spectacle of Anthony Burns' rendition made a deep and lasting impression on all who witnessed it. Other men and women in Boston that day wrote similar accounts and described feelings of anger, disgust, and sadness. Horace Howard Furness, a 20-year-old Harvard student, watched with an "excited state of mind" from the Commonwealth Building on the corner of State and Washington Streets, near the Old State House. Also observing from the Commonwealth Building was Martha Russell, who asked: "Did you ever feel every drop of blood in you boiling and seething, throbbing and burning, until it seemed you should suffocate?" As Mary wrote to her father: "I do not know the time when there has been so much excitement, almost all are unanimous in feelings of indignation, and mortification, and humiliation."
Burns' LegacyAnthony Burns' route took him past some of the chief scenes of American history. Just steps away from the courthouse, Crispus Attucks--perhaps also a fugitive slave--had been among those killed by British soldiers in the Boston Massacre. In 1776, the Declaration of Independence had been read from the balcony of the Old State House. Memories of Boston's significant role in the colonial struggle against British rule made the events of that week even more intolerable to the city's abolitionists. In his speech on 26 May, Rev. Theodore Parker said, "There is no Boston to-day. There was a Boston once. Now, there is a north suburb to the city of Alexandria; that is what Boston is. And you and I, fellow-subjects of the State of Virginia."
Mary Blanchard believed that the week of the Anthony Burns trial would "long be remembered as a sad one by the citizens of Boston." However, the case resuscitated abolitionist sentiment in the North and spurred efforts to repeal the Fugitive Slave Act. As Mary's brother Frank explained in a letter from the same collection: "The fact is Massachusetts was stirred to its very heart's core & there is the most wonderful change in public sentiment on the subject of slavery there, & everywhere at the North."
Less than a year after the trial, a group of northern abolitionists purchased Anthony Burns' freedom for $1,300, and he returned to Boston as a free man. See an online presentation of the checks used to purchase his freedom. The same year, the rising political power of the abolitionist movement in Massachusetts would lead to the enactment of state personal liberty law that made it all-but impossible to enforce the federal Fugitive Slave Act in the Commonwealth, and after several attempts by the now firmly-antislavery legislature, Edward Loring was removed from his Massachusetts judgeship in 1858.
Letters to Benjamin SeaverBenjamin Seaver served as the thirteenth mayor of Boston from 1852 to 1853. Upon the election of his successor, Jerome Van Crowninshield Smith of the American (or "Know Nothing") Party, Seaver took a six-month trip to Europe, embarking in January 1854. During his travels, his children--Benjamin Francis "Frank" Seaver, Mary Elizabeth (Seaver) Blanchard, and Charles Milton Seaver--wrote to him frequently about family matters and political events back in the states. Their letters comprise a record of most major political issues of the day, including the Kansas-Nebraska Act, the Missouri Compromise, slavery and abolition, Know-Nothings, anti-Catholicism, temperance, and the Crimean War.

Typically, compromise can be a great thing – certainly a mandate in most relationships, but not in the world of IT, and especially not in the storage space. In IT, compromise always comes at a cost. For years, IT has been inventing and implementing workarounds to cope with the poor performance of storage systems bound by mechanical hard disks. As processor, memory and network speeds have repeatedly doubled over the years, storage media have failed to keep pace, creating unbalanced ecosystems.
Often, these compromises are so ingrained that they have become second nature. No thought is given to the overhead because no alternatives existed. That is, until now, with the proliferation of flash-based storage systems and the trajectory of the all-silicon data center.
Fahima Zahir, product marketing, Violin Memory, has identified the top 10 coping mechanisms found in today's storage environments that should be avoided.

For a guy whose speed allows him to beat out routine ground balls to shortstop, Matt Moynihan has, at times, been a little slow to come around.
At 6-foot-2, 210 pounds and with enough fast-twitch muscle fibers to make a professional baseball scout drool, the Orange Coast College sophomore admitted he sometimes relied on his athletic gifts to carry him to what had been fairly substantial heights.
In three varsity seasons at Cathedral Catholic High in San Diego, Moynihan amassed 142 hits, a .437 career batting average, 80 stolen bases and was an All-CIF and all-state performer. He was recruited by LSU, Arizona State, UCLA, Stanford, USC and San Diego State, before choosing the University of San Diego.
As a freshman outfielder with the Toreros, he hit .388 in 49 at-bats and was successful on all six of his stolen-base attempts.
But, displeased by his lack of playing time, Moynihan elected to transfer to a community college. He learned about Orange Coast from USD pitcher Calvin Drummond, a member of the Pirates' 2009 state championship team.
But despite his lofty credentials, Moynihan struggled in early workouts with the Pirates.
"He was pretty bad in the fall and my [assistant] coaches wanted to cut him," OCC Coach John Altobelli said. "If I didn't know about his past [success], as a highly recruited kid out of high school who was a Division I bounce-back, he would have been cut."
But knowing Moynihan's talent, Altobelli offered the 20-year-old prospect another chance.
"[Altobelli] said he didn't want to see me hit the fan and go off," Moynihan said of at least one heart-to-heart discussion in Altobelli's office. "He said he knew I had all the talent in the world and I could help this program. He told me straight, 'I'm tired of your [lack of focus]. You're going to have to get your head on straight or I'm going to have to cut you.'"
Altobelli was not the only voice in Moynihan's ear. His father Tim and mother Jody ordered their son to vacate the Costa Mesa apartment he shared with a high school friend to move home to San Diego. The move home, during the fall semester, forced Moynihan to commute from San Diego to OCC for classes and baseball practices.
The move also terminated the temptation of partaking in a night life that had, Moynihan admitted, become a distraction to his work on the diamond.
"Obviously [college students] are going to party, its just a matter of how much are you going to do it?" Moynihan said. "In the fall, I made that mistake, I did it almost every night, if not every other night. I was going out to clubs, all that stuff. Now, I do it maybe once a month. Baseball is my main focus."
Altobelli recognized that Moynihan was potentially squandering a wealth of talent.
"I told him his priorities were taking away attention from where it needed to be," Altobelli said. "I told him that if he didn't turn it around, he was going to be out of baseball or at a smaller school, when he should be playing at the highest level.
"He was driving about three hours a day to commute from San Diego, and he had a lot of time to think and do some soul searching. To his credit, he turned it around."
Moynihan said the advice of his parents, Altobelli, longtime baseball instructor and mentor Eric Andrews, and others, played in his head on those long drives to and from San Diego.
"I knew that if I didn't get a [Division I] scholarship, I was screwed," Moynihan said. "I realized I literally had to put my boots on and go to work. I busted my butt in the weight room and took extra hitting, whatever I could do to help this team."
The results have been impressive.
Moynihan, a right fielder who helps lead the Pirates into a best-of-three home series against Allan Hancock in the Southern California Regional playoffs beginning Friday at 2 p.m., finished the regular season hitting a team-leading .452. He had one home run, drove in 30 runs, scored 34 and stole 10 bases. He shared Orange Empire Conference Player of the Year recognition with teammate Jordan Beck.
He has signed to play next season at the University of Texas and said he would consider signing professionally, depending on where he was selected in the June draft and how much money a prospective team might offer.
"I'm ecstatic for him," said Altobelli, to whom Moynihan said he will be forever grateful. "He really grew up quickly."
Moynihan said he will never again disrespect his talent, or the game.
"As Alto says, the baseball gods are always watching you," Moynihan said. "If you put in the work, you are going to be rewarded. If you're not working, don't expect to go three for three or four for four; expect to go zero for four. I really take that to heart."

Atlanta, GA (WGCL) —
A 22-month-old child has died after being left in a hot car for more than eight hours.
According to Cobb County police, the father of the toddler was supposed to drop the baby off at daycare, but forgot. The father then drove to work around 9 a.m. Wednesday and left the baby in the car. It wasn't until the man left work and started driving home that he looked in the backseat and saw the child still strapped in the car seat and unresponsive.
"It is tough, I am not sure how someone could forget they have a child in the backseat," Dale Hamilton said.
Hamilton said he was in the Akers Mill Square shopping center getting lunch when he saw the man drive into the parking lot, stop his car straddling two lanes of traffic, jump out and begin CPR on the baby.
"He hopped out of his car. I didn't know what he was doing at the time," Hamilton said. "But, he eventually pulled the child out of the car seat. I guess he was trying to un-restrain him. He pulled him out of the car seat, laid him on the ground and was trying to resuscitate him."
Hamilton said it was difficult to watch.
"He was constantly saying, 'What have I done, what have I done.'"
Some good Samaritans tried to resuscitate the child but it was too late. Investigators took the father in for questioning at the Cobb County Police Department. Police said the man had to be restrained at the scene because he was so distraught. At this point charges have not been filed. Police said pending the outcome of their investigation the father could face a charge of involuntary manslaughter.
Temperatures in Atlanta topped 90 degrees Wednesday afternoon. Temperatures inside a hot car could go as high as 130 to 140 degrees in a few hours.
