For stress incontinence:
This section is not applicable to this
Mechanical devices can be used to control stress and mixed urinary incontinence. Because they are inexpensive and have few risks, they are usually tried before surgery, along with other treatments like pelvic floor (Kegel) exercises. Some women who have incontinence but who don't want or can't have surgery may find that mechanical devices work well enough to control their incontinence.
There is no strong evidence that these devices work to control incontinence. But they are inexpensive and don't have a lot of risks. If they don't work for you, you can always try other things like pelvic floor exercises or surgery.
Using a urethral insert increases

Using pessaries increases the risk of damaging the:
Use of mechanical devices is
under your control and can be designed to fit into your lifestyle.
For some women, a tampon inserted in the vagina creates enough pressure to prevent leaking. Tampons are a less expensive option than a pessary, with little risk.

It's been a little over a year since we released IE7 on Windows XP and for Windows Vista, so I thought it would be worthwhile to talk about where we are after the year.
According to internal Microsoft research based on data from Visual Sciences Corporation, there are over 300 million users are experiencing the web with IE7. This makes IE7 the second most popular browser after IE6. IE7 is already #1 in the US and UK, and we expect IE7 to surpass IE6 worldwide shortly.
Perhaps more important than the overall numbers is the positive impact IE7 has made for our users. As you know, we focused a lot on improving security in IE7. We believe IE 7 is the safest Microsoft browser released to date. According to a vulnerability report published today, IE7 has fewer vulnerabilities than previous versions of IE over the same time period. What's more, the report showed that IE7 had both fewer fixed and unfixed vulnerabilities in the first year than the other browsers we compared.
In addition to having fewer vulnerabilities, as we previously mentioned, IE 7's Phishing Filter stops more than 900,000 phishing attempts per week, stopping crimes-in-progress before users give up their personal information. On top of that, more sites are adopting Extended Validation Certificates as a way to help protect their users from fraud, and people are noticing. A recent USA Today article noted that "for the ultimate peace of mind, look for the address bar to turn green in IE7" in the context of securely connecting with your broker.
Finally, we've seen a decrease of 10-20% in the support call volume for IE compared with a year ago, before the release of IE7. This is typically a sign that the product is more stable and has fewer issues than the previous release.
While we're happy with how well IE7 is doing, as always, we continue to listen to our customers and find ways to further improve Internet Explorer. Look for more news on this front in the coming weeks.

We're not sure which is more stressful: being the passenger who first realizes he will be seated next to someone else's crying baby, or being that baby's parent. Fortunately for all involved, however, many young babies actually do travel well in flight; quite often it tends to be the crawlers and toddlers who get antsy and upset when confined, but that's a different book altogether.
Babies of all ages do cry for various reasons, so in the space constraints of aircraft, try to be resourceful when trying to calm your crying child. As you do, take comfort in knowing that the drone of the engines usually limits how far a crying baby can be heard. Keeping your own cool can go a long way when you're trying to soothe your baby and have to remain seated.
Check the usual suspects and respond accordingly: Is your baby hungry, wet or dirty, cold or warm, bored? If it's bright, try closing the window shade; if your baby wants a view, show her the one outside the window or in the pages of the airline's magazine.
If all else fails, try not to let a few dirty looks bother you and be assured that most people sympathize with the parents of a crying infant. After all, everyone was a baby once, many have had to try to quiet one in a public place at some time in their past, you're unlikely to have to face any of these people ever again and, lastly, they'll get over it.
Before we discuss ear pain on airplanes, let us first offer you the reassurance that a great many babies never show the slightest signs of discomfort. Until you know that your own child (and you) will be spared, the thought of a baby screaming because of ear pain is easily and understandably one of the most dreaded aspects of air travel. And from firsthand experience, we can tell you it tends to be all the more disconcerting when that baby happens to be your own.
Any of you who have flown before know that ears can be quite sensitive to changes in pressure. Switching to pediatrician-mode for a moment, this is because the outer ear is separated from the middle ear by a thin membrane called the tympanic membrane, or ear drum. Experiencing a difference in pressure across this membrane causes a sensation that as many as 1 in 3 passengers (children more so than adults) experience as temporary muffled hearing, discomfort, or even pain. Unfortunately, having a stuffy nose or a head cold can increase a child's chances of ear problems.
For an adult, chewing gum or yawning is often all that is needed for the middle-ear pressure to equilibrate return to normal and make plugged-up ears "pop." Perhaps part of the reason that babies tend to complain more about their ears than adults is because chewing gum is simply not an option and we have yet to meet an infant who can yawn on command.
If your baby has a cold or ear infection, discuss with your pediatrician whether you should give him an infant pain reliever. Unfortunately, decongestants have not been proven to help, and in fact are not recommended for use in infants. For children with significant ear discomfort associated with a cold and/or ear infection, it may simply be best, if possible, to postpone flying. If your travel plans are not flexible enough to cancel because of a cold, just be aware of your increased odds of dealing with ear pain when you do hop aboard.
Airplane cabin noise levels can range anywhere from 60 to as high as 100 decibels, and tend to be louder during takeoff. Using cotton balls or small earplugs may help to decrease the decibel level your baby is exposed to, and as a result make it easier for her to sleep or relax.
Once on board, it's useful to know that there is a practical and realistic alternative to the traditional gum-chewing approach(which, for obvious reasons, is absolutely contraindicated at this age regardless of your level of desperation) that works very well for babies when it comes to relieving ear pressure. That alternative is sucking.
Pediatricians, flight attendants, and seasoned parents alike commonly suggest offering a bottle, breast, or pacifier during the times when the pressure changes in the cabin are likely to be greatest-during takeoff and initial descent. You'll notice we said initial descent, not landing. That's because the pressure change is typically most noticeable as much as a half hour or more before landing, depending on a flight's cruising altitude. The higher up you are, the earlier in the flight the descent usually starts.
If you generally don't tend to notice your own ears popping and the captain doesn't announce plans for the initial descent, you can always ask a flight attendant to let you know when it would be a good idea to try to get the sucking started. If sucking doesn't cut it and your baby seems to be bothered, stay calm and try rubbing his ears and singing a soothing song. Even if you find that nothing short of reaching solid ground (and normal air pressure) works to calm him down, remind yourself that you've done everything you can, and that most babies who have difficulty with ear pain on airplanes tend to outgrow it.

Matthew and I met at his sneaker and clothing shop, District, in our hometown of Alameda during the summer of 2005. As I browsed through his new store, his attempts at customer service and flirting came off rude and egotistical. Although it wasn't a great first impression, I felt an immediate connection, but kept my distance after we learned that my cousin was a good friend of his. Two weeks later, Matt's business partner and my cousin's friend, invited me to join them as a buyer at a major Las Vegas Convention. My cousin had his reservations, but thought it would be a great opportunity for us to get to know each other. Who could pass up a free trip to Las Vegas, right? Matt asked me to lunch a few days before the trip so that we could get acquainted. We became instant friends and have been inseparable ever since.
After a couple years of dating and while on a winter vacation in New York City, we spent New Year's Eve 2007 at a Chris Rock performance inside Madison Square Garden. At the stroke of midnight, Matt turned to me and said, "Babe, I'm not going anywhere," a direct quote from the show. My reaction was, "What? That's Chris Rock's line!" He pulled out the box, opened it upside down and held a beautiful cushion cut solitaire in his trembling hands. While I burst into tears, Matt patiently said, "So, what's your answer?" Although he didn't officially ask, I cried out, "Yes!"
We were motivated to find a modern and clean venue that could represent our styles and personalities. After a month long search, we approached the new Yoshi's Jazz Club and Restaurant in San Francisco with the idea of their first wedding and they were sold. The venue was made for our event: we held the ceremony in the jazz club, cocktail hour in the bar and lounge on the main floor and upstairs, moved into the dining room for dinner and back into the jazz club for cake, dessert and dancing!
After we booked Yoshi's, we searched for local businesses that could provide us with the perfect service. Half way through my first day of wedding dress shopping, I tried on one dress that took everyone's breath away. When I found out it was designed by Junko Yoshioka, it was the perfect sign and then, the perfect dress. Another light went off in my head when we realized that we could ask a family friend, Rev. Michael Yoshii, to officiate the ceremony. We were definitely on the right track with Yoshi's, Yoshioka and Yoshii.
Because District and shoes played such a fun symbol in our relationship, we found it to be the perfect theme to tie us and our wedding celebration together. I was first inspired to create a cake unlike any other. Why not stack some shoeboxes on top of each other and top the cake off with replicas of our actual wedding shoes? Matt's new white patent leather croc Vans and my silver sedaraby's by Manolo Blahnik did the trick. After finding a local cake artist, Debbie Does Cakes, to help us embellish our dream cake, the theme took off. I soon reached out to a friend with a local design business, Passing Notes. Abbie helped us create shoe print invitations embedded with our initials, programs tied with a custom made shoelace, personalized shoehorns that guided our 200 guests to their table cities and our shoelace logo, which we projected onto the walls of Yoshi's jazz club. Matt and I also displayed the logo alongside our photo on Yoshi's outdoor marquee and even hand painted our logo on our aisle runner. The logo also added a personal touch to our out of town and wedding party gift bags.
Our purple theme was vibrant throughout the event with strapless Ralph Lauren bridesmaid dresses, purple bowties and argyle socks for the groomsmen. Purple orchids were submersed in tall vases filled with white stones and purple water. Different shades of purple and white orchids were also chosen for the boutonnières and bouquets provided by our local florist, Mints.
Our Uncle blessed the ceremony with his solo guitar, which included six Beatles songs, and a friend personalized our cocktail hour with his DJ beats. Yoshi's provided the ambiance with jazz hits as we seated our guests at communal tables to serve the Japanese family style menu:
1st course: sendai miso soup, edamame, kakiage
2nd course: spicy geisha roll, sarusa roll, japanese roll
3rd course: gindara black cod, creekstone farm black angus ribeye
4th course: chocolate mousse bon bons and wedding cake
Debbie Does Cakes Shoe Cake: lemon cake with raspberry and vanilla filling
Sugar Danny's Sheet cake: double layered devils food cake and almond cake
The night went off with a bang as we performed our self choreographed first dance to Estelle's, American Boy. We cut the shoe cake, served the bon bons and danced the night away to top hits by the band, D'Groove.
Two days after the best day of our lives, we honeymooned in Nadi, Fiji and explored parts of
New Zealand that involved the Franz Josef glacier, bungy jumping, white water rafting and a helicopter ride over Milford Sound.
We're still enjoying the coverage of our big day and get to relive it through our photographers, Joel Flory and Jon Encarncacion, and videographers, Travis and Curtis from Curtis Nemetz Productions.

It should be clear to the Dodgers by now, the only way they win a game in the National League Championship Series is if their starter throws a shutout.
After Zack Greinke struck out 10 and gave up only two runs in eight innings in the opener and lost, Clayton Kershaw pitched even better Saturday in Game 2.
And lost.
The Cardinals scored an unearned run off Kershaw in the fifth inning and made it hold up for a 1-0 victory Saturday at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.
Kershaw went seven brilliant innings, he and relievers Ronald Belisario and J.P. Howell holding the Cardinals to only two hits.
And lost.
A looping double by David Freese, an A.J. Ellis passed ball and a Jon Jay sacrifice fly in the fifth inning accounted for the entire day's scoring.
The Dodgers could not score one lousy run against rookie Michael Wacha and four St. Louis relievers. The Dodgers went 0 for 6 with runners in scoring position and are now 1 for 16 in the NLCS.
The Dodgers played this one with shortstop Hanley Ramirez (ribs) and outfielder Andre Ethier (ankle) in the starting lineup, and their offense never could show any life.
The series now switches to Los Angeles for Game 3 on Monday, with St. Louis set to start ace Adam Wainwright against Hyun-Jin Ryu.
Here is an inning-by-inning recap of the NLCS's Game 2:
Cardinals 1, Dodgers 0 (final, middle of ninth):
Closer Trevor Rosenthal wrapped it up for the Cardinals.
He struck out Yasiel Puig (his fourth in four at-bats), Juan Uribe and pinch-hitter Andre Ethier. The last five Dodgers struck out.
Cardinals 1, Dodgers 0 (end of eighth);
J.P. Howell continued the Dodgers' strong pitching performance. Howell walked one, but held the Cardinals without a hit.
The Dodgers are in position to lose 1-0, despite allowing only two hits.
Cardinals 1, Dodgers 0 (middle of eighth):
Ex-Dodgers left-hander Randy Choate started the inning and induced Carl Crawford to foul out, and then the hard-throwing Carlos Martinez came on to strike out Mark Ellis and Adrian Gonzalez.
St. Louis is making it look easy.
The Dodgers have struck out 10 times and are down to the final three outs.
Cardinals 1, Dodgers 0 (end of seventh):
Ronald Belisario came on in relief and retired the Cardinals in order.
The Dodgers are in position to lose 1-0 on an unearned run.
Cardinals 1, Dodgers 0 (middle of seventh):
Manager Don Mattingly seems unfazed by second-guessing, and has set himself up for more.
When Nick Punto singled with two outs in the top of the sixth, the Cardinals went to left-hander reliever Kevin Siegrist and Mattingly called on Michael Young to pinch hit for ... Clayton Kershaw.
Kershaw has thrown only 72 pitches.
Siegrist threw a pair of wild pitches to advance Punto to third, but on a full count, Young flied out to right.
The Dodgers are six outs from a second consecutive frustrating loss.
Cardinals 1, Dodgers 0 (end of sixth):
Clayton Kershaw made quick work of the Cardinals in the sixth, retiring them in order. The good news is he's thrown only 72 pitches through six.
The bad, of course, is the Cards' Michael Wacha is matching him and has a 1-0 lead. Wach, though, has thrown 100 pitches in five innings.
Cardinals 1, Dodgers 0 (middle of sixth):
The Dodgers may never score again.
They wasted their biggest opportunity yet, and this one figures to hurt. And maybe for a long while.
Clayton Kershaw started the threat with a single. Carl Crawford followed with a bouncer that second baseman Matt Carpenter made a nice diving stop of, but then mistakenly threw to second. Kershaw was already there, the throw sailed into left for an error and the Dodgers ended up with Kershaw at third and Crawford at second and no outs.
Mark Ellis could not drive the run in, Michael Wacha getting him to pop up to second. The Cardinals then intentionally walked Adrian Gonzalez to load the bases with no outs.
And they still couldn't score.
Wacha struck out Yasiel Puig for the third time, and then struck out Juan Uribe. Both third strikes looked low.
Thus far the Dodgers are 1-for-15 with runners in scoring position in the NLCS's first two games.
Cardinals 1, Dodgers 0 (end of fifth):
And a passed ball is going to kill them?
Clayton Kershaw gave up a lead-off double to David Freese and then catcher A.J. Ellis simply did not catch a ball right over the plate to Mike Adams.
With Freese advancing to third, the Cardinals tried to squeeze him home but Jon Jay could not get the bunt down.
Then Jay lifted a fly to Carl Crawford in medium left field. Freese tagged and Crawford's throw was late and about 20 feet up the first-base line. Not even remotely close.
The sun remains bright, but with nasty shadows they've turned the lights on a Busch Stadium.
Dodgers 0, Cardinals 0 (middle of fifth):
Scoring opportunities are looking rare today. The Dodgers got one in the fifth when A.J. Ellis hit a two-out, ground-rule double but Nick Punto was caught looking at a third strike.
Through five innings right-hander Michael Wacha has allowed two hits, not walked a batter and struck out six.
Dodgers 0, Cardinals 0 (end of fourth):
If it's not enough for the Cards that Clayton Kershaw is dealing and shadows are making it hard to see the ball, the Dodgers are turning in some nice defense.
Nick Punto, starting at shortstop for the injured Hanley Ramirez (ribs), started a nice double play after Kershaw gave up his first walk, and then Juan Uribe made another terrific stop of a Yadier Molina bouncer.
Dodgers 0, Cardinals 0 (middle of fourth):
See previous inning: threee up, three down.
The shadows creeping across Busch Stadium aren't helping the hitters from both teams, either.
Meanwhile, TBS has reported that shortstop Hanley Ramirez has left the ballpark to have his ribs X-rayed at a local hospital.
Dodgers 0, Cardinals 0 (end of third):
This game has been all pitching through three innings.
Since giving up a leadoff triple, Clayton Kershaw has retired nine consecutive batters. He has not walked a batter, while striking out two.
First team to make a mistake loses?
Dodgers 0, Cardinals 0 (middle of third):
Dodgers still aren't hitting. Right-hander Michael Wacha retired the Dodgers in order again.
Since the single by Mark Ellis in the first, Wacha has retired eight consecutive Dodgers. He's struck out three and has not walked a batter.
The Dodgers badly need to show some offensive life.
Dodgers 0, Cardinals 0 (end of second):
It's looking like one of those games, a low-scoring, one-bad-mistake-kills-you games.
Clayton Kershaw retired the Cardinals in order and is looking very sharp. But then so is his counterpart, Michael Wacha. Each team has one hit.
The Dodgers need to put some pressure on Wacha to see how the rookie responds.
Dodgers 0, Cardinals 0 (middle of second):
The Dodgers look like they're letting rookie right-hander Michael Wacha settle in, and that's not a good thing.
The 22-year-old, who appeared in only 15 games (nine starts) this season, retired the Dodgers in order in the second. He made it look easy.
Dodgers 0, Cardinals 0 (end of first):
Clayton Kershaw's first pitch was lined into a triple by Matt Carpenter, who got an assist when Yasiel Puig tried one of his awkward slide stops and the ball squirted past him.
And then Kershaw showed why he's Kershaw.
He popped up Carlos Beltran, struck out Matt Holliday and got Yadier Molina to ground out.
It was pretty impressive, and just maybe a lift the Dodgers could use with two stars out.
Dodgers 0, Cardinals 0 (middle of first):
The Dodgers got off to a bad start Saturday, and that was before Mark Ellis stumbled.
Shortstop Hanley Ramirez, their best hitter, was a late scratch because of bruised ribs. He was hit in the left ribs by a pitch Friday. Nick Punto started at shortstop. The Dodgers were already playing without Andre Ethier.
In the top of the first inning, Ellis lined a hit to left that should have been a double, but he stumbled after crossing first and had to hold up to a single. After Adrian Gonzalez struck out, Ellis stole second, but right-hander Michael Wacha came back to strike out the suddenly struggling Yasiel Puig. Now batting cleanup with Ramirez out.
There are no must-games when it's only the second game of a seven-game series, but there are some you'd-better-win games.
The Dodgers opened the National League Championship Series with their two aces lined up, while Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright isn't scheduled to start until Game 3.
The Dodgers can hardly afford to lose the first two games with Zack Greinke and Clayton Kershaw starting, only to face Wainwright in the third game.
So after Friday's epic 3-2 loss to the Cardinals in 13 innings, the Dodgers more than ever need Kershaw to step up big in this afternoon's Game 2.
Of course, Greinke was huge in the opener and that didn't work out so well.
As well as Kershaw has been pitching – and the troubles the Cardinals have against left-handers – he is anything but a lock today. Kershaw went 0-2 against St. Louis this season, allowing six runs in 13 innings.
In 12 lifetime starts against the Cardinals, Kershaw is 4-5 with a 3.75 ERA. Outside of Philadelphia (1-4), they are the only National League club he has a losing record against.

The UMBC men's lacrosse team (1-2) continues as tough a stretch as any team in the nation on Saturday, March 2 when they travel to Connecticut to take on No. 13 Fairfield (2-2) at Alumni Field. The opening face-off takes place at 1:00. In an eleven-day span, UMBC face No. 4 Loyola (Feb. 26), No. 13 Fairfield, No. 1 Maryland (March 6) and No. 3 Johns Hopkins (March 8) all on the road.
UMBC is coming off a 21-9 setback to defending national champion and fourth-ranked Loyola in miserable conditions at Ridley Athletic Complex on Feb. 26. The Retrievers led, 4-3, after one quarter and trailed only 9-7 early in the third quarter, before the Greyhounds ran off ten consecutive goals.
TOP DOG: Head Coach Don Zimmerman enters his 20th season at UMBC in 2013. The Retriever mentor stood eighth in victories (213) and 15th in winning percentage (60.7%) amongst active Division I coaches after the 2012 campaign. The win over Binghamton on April 10, 2010 was the 200th in the career of UMBC head coach Don Zimmerman. He is now 214-139 in his 27th year as a collegiate mentor. He coached his 250th game at UMBC vs. Hartford on May 4, 2011.
Zimmerman's Records
Career Record:
214-140 (.605) (27th season)
at UMBC: 141-125 (.530) (20th season)
WINNING THE TIGHT ONES: UMBC is now 26-17 in games decided by three goals or less since the beginning of the 2007 season. UMBC had won eight straight overtime decisions from 2007-09 until dropping a Feb. 20, 2010 triple overtime decision to Delaware. UMBC's previous overtime loss was an 11-10 setback at Penn early in the 2006 season.
In 2012, UMBC was 2-4 in games decided by one or two goals. The Retrievers have won 17 of its last 23 one-goal decisions.
UMBC is now 16-6 in Don Zimmerman's 19+ seasons in overtime and in his career, Coach Zimmerman is 18-8 in extra time in 26 seasons.
HOME, SWEET HOME: UMBC is 39-16 (.709) at home since 2006.
FOR (HOME) OPENERS: With the 11-7 win over Rutgers on Feb. 23, UMBC snapped a three-game slide in home openers.
NOTING: The 21 goals allowed by UMBC to Loyola on Feb. 26 is the most permitted by a Retriever team since allowing 27 goals to Towson in the 1996 campaign.
BEASTS OF AMERICA EAST: UMBC is 36-11 in nine years of America East competition and 20-4 at UMBC Stadium. UMBC has never lost back-to-back regular season contests in league play.
In 2012, the Retrievers (3-2 AEC) posted a winning league record and earned a spot in the four-team America East Conference Championships for the ninth consecutive year.
DON'T LOOK BACK: UMBC is now in its 46th season of varsity men's lacrosse with a record of 339-285 (.543). The Retrievers played their 600th intercollegiate match on March 18, 2012 at Maryland. They are 222-218 (.505) in their 32nd year at the Division I level, achieving win No. 200 vs. Ohio State on March 21, 2009. Before the win over Towson on April 1, 2008, the last time the program was last over the .500 mark at the Division I level was when at the end of its third season (1983) when the record was 19-18.
Assists per game 13th 7.15
Man-Up Offense 14th 41.9
TEAM CAPTAINS: The UMBC men's lacrosse team has selected seniors Scott Jones (Port Coquitlam, B.C./Terry Fox), Neill Lewnes (Annapolis, Md./St. Mary's) , and Ethan Murphy (West Seneca, N.Y./West Seneca East) as its captains for the 2012-13 academic year. Jones and Murphy will serve as team captains for the second consecutive year.
2012 AMERICA EAST ALL-CONFERENCE: Junior attackman Scott Jones and sophomore face-off specialist Phil Poe earned America East Conference First Team honors in a vote of the league's six head coaches. Two Retrievers- senior defender Aaron Verardi and junior midfielder Scott Hopmann- earned Second Team honors, while freshman A/M Derek Bertolini was selected to the All-Rookie team. Junior defender Ethan Murphy was also honored by earning a selection to the league's All -Academic squad.
Sixty-six Retrievers have been honored by the America East Conference on all-league teams since 2004.
UMBC senior goalkeeper Adam Cohen (Arnold, Md./The Severn School) was named America East Men's Lacrosse Player of the Week for games ending Feb. 24, 2013. Cohen led the Retrievers in the squad's 11-7 victory over Rutgers at UMBC Stadium on Feb. 23. Over the final three quarters, the Retriever netminder made 12 of his 13 saves and allowed only five goals over the same span of time.
The 13 stops were one shy of his 14 made at Rutgers in 11-7 victory in 2012. He also received America East Conference Player of the Week honors after his performance in that contest a season ago
In that contest, Cohen scored UMBC's final goal of the day with 1:39 remaining at Rutgers and it is believed to be the first goal scored by a Retriever goalkeeper in 32 years of NCAA Division I competition.
SR A Scott Jones had hat tricks or better in four of his last six outings of the 2012 season, scoring a total of 18 goals in that span. He had scored in 14 consecutive games (35g-10a-45pts, 3.21 ppg) until being held off the board at Vermont on April 7. Jones had multiple points in 12 of those contests and finished the 2012 season 8th in the nation with 2.77 goals per contest.
With his four-goal effort in the opener at Robert Morris, he now also has 14 career games with three or more goals and was tied for 10th- most amongst current Division I players (prior to Feb. 23). Jones is the team's leading active scorer with 83 points (68-15-83).
HELPING HANDS: In 2012, SR A Joe Lustgarten led America East and finished 4th nationally with 2.23 assists per game. He became the 21st player in school history to post 25 assists in a season (29)-the last player to tally 25 or more was Drew Westervelt, who recorded 36 in 2007. Lustgarten had multiple assists in 11 consecutive outings, which is the longest streak in a single season since Steve Marohl, the NCAA record-setter with 77 assists, had multiple helpers in 12 straight in the 1992 campaign. He was held off the board completely at Loyola on Feb. 26.
CROW ABOUT POE: JR face-off specialist Phil Poe attempted all but six draws through 11 games in 2012 and his 320 attempted were 7th in the nation. His 174 face-off victories are the second-most in school history, behind only Russ LeClair's 210 wins in 1984.
Poe was named America East Conference Player of the Week for games ending April 21, 2012. Poe tied a school record by winning 22 face-offs in the 17-16 overtime victory over Albany. Moreover, his 15 ground balls recorded are the most since Nick Brownlee scooped a school-record 18 vs. VMI in 1997 The 22 face-off wins tied for the sixth-most in a Division I single game in 2012.
Poe's 87 ground balls on the 2012 season is the most for a Retriever since Nick Brownlee had 108 in 1997. Poe won 14 or more draws in nine of the 13 contests in 2012. He finished 11th in the country with 6.31 ground balls per game.
NOTING: SR A Matt Gregoire, who did not play at RMU due to injury, debuted and posted his third career game with three or more goals vs. Rutgers… FR M Pat Young scored the first two goals of his career, tallying twice in the first quarter at Robert Morris… SO LSM Seth Mackin garnered a career-best six ground balls in that game… Twenty-seven Retrievers saw action in the opener vs. the Colonials and 28 appeared vs. Rutgers… JR M David Campbell and FR A Nate Lewnes scored their first goals in the black and gold vs. the Scarlet Knights.
A LOOK AT THE OPPONENT: Fairfield (2-2) dropped its second consecutive game, falling 9-2 at home to Hofstra on Feb. 26. Jack Murphy took the loss in net for the Stags, stopping 13 shots in the contest. Murphy has taken home the ECAC Lacrosse League Defensive Player of the Week award for two consecutive weeks, stopping 28 total shots in a 10-9 win over Navy and a 10-9 loss at North Carolina. FU opened the season with an 8-6 victory over Bryant. JR A Jordan Greenfield (8g, 2a) and SR M Sam Snow (7g, 3a) share team-high scoring honors for the Stags.
ALL-TIME SERIES: Last season, Fairfield senior attackman John Snellman scored 44 seconds into overtime and the 20th-ranked Stags nipped UMBC, 10-9, at UMBC Stadium. Scott Jones scored the game-tying goal with 40 seconds to play in regulation and recorded a season-best four-goal effort. The meeting was the first between the two teams since 1999.
UMBC and Fairfield played a home-and-home series in 1998 and 1999, with the Retrievers capturing both contests. UMBC triumphed, 13-5, at home in '98 and won, 10-8, in Connecticut in 1999.

LASER surgery for early glottic cancer: Our results
Suche in Medline nach
|14. April 2011
Objective: Early stage glottic cancer can usually be successfully treated, as it gives early symptoms and is relatively easy to resect. The vocal cords are poor in lymphatic pathways, so regional metastases are rare. Preservation of the main laryngeal functions: phonation, respiration and swallowing is essential and has great impact on quality of life.
Materials and methods: We conducted a retrospective study on 26 patients with early laryngeal carcinoma stage Tis or T1, who underwent LASER chordectomy at Ministry of Interior Medical Institute, Sofia for a period of 2 years.
Results: After the operation all patients with Tis and T1a were with histologically clean specimen margins. In 2 cases with T1b the resection borders showed tumor infiltration, which demanded a broader LASER excision. On control examinations, at least one year after the operation no local recurrence was found.
Conclusion: Laser surgery of early laryngeal cancer is a method of radical treatment with excellent functional results. Of utmost importance for the success of the operation is the careful histological assessment of the resection lines.

Film Festival Preview
Tromadance New Mexico
When Kurly Tlopoyawa, owner of Albuquerque's only cult video store, Burning Paradise, met Lloyd Kaufman, the notorious president of Troma Films and director of such trash classics as The Toxic Avenger and Tromeo & Juliet, it was a match made in Heaven. Or slightly south of there.
Film Interview
The Road to Albuquerque
An interview with Around the Bend writer/director Jordan Roberts
Around the Bend, an emotional little family drama/comedy being released by the newly formed Warner Independent label, was shot in and around Albuquerque over the course of six weeks last fall. The film, which tells the story of four generations of men (Michael Caine, Christopher Walken, Josh Lucas and young newcomer Jonah Bobo) on a cross-country quest to reconnect with their estranged past, was written and directed by first-time filmmaker Jordan Roberts.
Film Review
I Heart Huckabees
Philosophical comedy is fundamentally confused
David O. Russell's I Heart Huckabees is a parable of orderly excess, of curiosity taken to dire extremes, and, if nothing else, its bravery lies in its blatant disregard for organic deliberation. A mixture of the intellectual and the absurd, the film plays out like some confused, hung-over Sunday morning coffee klatch between Charlie Kaufman and Immanuel Kant.
Idiot Box
Ratings Found
"Lost" on ABC
Something very strange has happened in the first month of the new fall season. NBC, last season's big network, has taken a huge plunge in ratings. That isn't the shocking part, though; with the loss of "Friends" and "Frasier," everyone expected a certain decrease in stature for the long-reigning champ. No, the shocking part is the suggestion of who might be the new number one network: ABC.
Week in Sloth
The Week in Sloth
"True Curse of the Mummy" (TLC 7 p.m.) Turns out most of the people who died mysterious deaths after opening mummy tombs in Egypt croaked from inhaling toxic mold. ... Yeah, its just not as scary.
"Genius: A Night for Ray Charles" (KRQE-13 8 p.m.) No disrespect intended, but Ray's career really seems to be taking off now that he's dead. First, there's this hour-long tribute featuring Mary J. Blige, Al Green, Elton John, B.B. King and Stevie Wonder. Then, there's the feature film biopic starring Jamie Foxx--who, coincidentally is hosting tonight's shindig.

Indian Ocean islands link up via agriculture web portal
[ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR] As part of a new project to improve biodiversity and agriculture science reporting within the Indian Ocean Commission (IOC), a group of 11 press officers were trained last month (24–25 May) in Mauritius.
The press officers come from the agriculture ministries of the IOC islands — Comoros, Madagascar, Mauritius, Réunion and the Seychelles — as well as Zanzibar.
The training programme is just one component of a wider initiative — launched in 2010 — to highlight environmentally-friendly agricultural practices in this biodiversity-rich region. Other activities include the launch of the online Indian Ocean Biodiversity & Agriculture portal, in December 2011.
These activities follow the endorsement of environmentally-friendly policies by agricultural communities in the IOC, as agreed in 2010 through the Regional Agro-ecology & Climate Change Initiative. The initiative is coordinated by the IOC, and funded by the International Fund for Agricultural Development.
The initiative aims to improve communication on the islands and strengthen links between them, by bringing together agriculture and environment experts, researchers, decision-makers, media, and local communities.
"The objective is to underline a more sustainable agriculture, which respects the exceptional biodiversity of our islands," Sophie Della Mussia, communication officer at the French International Cooperation Centre for Agronomic Research (CIRAD), told SciDev.Net.
Despite the region's rich biodiversity and heavy reliance on agriculture (according to CIRAD, 90 per cent of Madagascar's flora is endemic, and 80 per cent of the population relies on agriculture for food and revenues), media coverage of agriculture and biodiversity issues has been inadequate, said Della Mussia.
Providing means to incite farmers to practise environmentally-friendly agriculture could be essential to preserving the island's natural ecological richness, she added.
Della Mussia said that a new web directory was set up as part of the project to ease searching for contacts in agriculture and food industry and facilitate cooperation, and this month a group of young French journalists from Réunion will also be trained is collaboration with France Volontaires to contribute to the portal.
Solohery Randrianoelina, head of the communication at Madagascar's agriculture ministry, said agro-ecology and agrobiodiversity are now a priority for the ministry. Both refer to good practices that help farmers increase yields and adapt to climate change without harming the natural resources and reserves, he said.
Haingonirina Ioniarilala, communications officer at the same ministry and a press officer trained through the project, said the main tasks for the press officers would be to gather agro-ecology information and lead advocacy campaigns.
A highlight of the project was its successful strengthening of links between IOC members, so that they were able to share good farming practices and bolster the region's agriculture sector, Ioniarilala said.
The main challenges will be using web-based media to connect with rural farmers, who were often illiterate, or do not have Internet access due to poor levels of connectivity, she added.

Gillard visits charred 'moonscape' of CoonabarabranComments Off on Gillard visits charred 'moonscape' of Coonabarabran
September 21, 2019 by admin
Click here to learn how to help the fire recovery effortPrime Minister Julia Gillard today flew into Coonabarabran to witness first-hand the devastating effects of the bushfire that claimed at least 51 homes.
She drove through the Timor Road in Warrumbungle National Park, the epicentre of the inferno, which opened Wednesday for the first time since the fire for residents to see the extent of their losses.
Ms Gillard surveyed the charred countryside and blackened forests described by the Rural Fire Service as a "moonscape".
She saw the ruins of the home in which Bob and Jeanette Fenwick had raised four children.
The Fenwicks also lost 33 cows and 250 sheep in the blaze.
Their property is in the valley below the Australian Astromical Observatory where accommodation was destroyed, the site of which the Prime Minister also visited on Thursday.
Mr Fenwick told Ms Gillard that when he arrived at the property there was nothing to be done to stop the flames.
"We couldn't do anything here. It was over. It was so fast," he said.
"Unbelievable really, isn't it," the Prime Minister replied, touching his arm.
"I was up at the [Siding Springs] Observatory talking to people up there about how they looked out to see a narrow plume of smoke and then it's just – whoosh and they are leaving as quickly as they can with flames at the height of the observatory tower. It was an amazing firestorm."
She said it was clear that sometimes residents just needed to get out and look after themselves.
Ms Gillard added: "I have been looking at some of the houses as we have been coming up including ones that obviously had a huge firestorm behind them but because of the wind they have survived. There is just a randomness to it. It is hard to explain. You need to know a lot more about fire than I do to explain it."
Asked what they needed, Jeanette said, "Rain. Gentle rain."
Warrumbungle Shire Mayor's Bushfire Appeal: Warrumbungle Shire Council has set up a bushfire appeal to ensure donations from the community reach their intended target. Donated money will be used to help residents who have lost everything as a result of the fire.
The council has set up a special purpose bank account to accept donations via EFT:

Donations will also be accepted by cheque or payment at the council's Coonabarabran and Coolah offices or at all Commonwealth Bank branches.

Student Empowerment Training Project
The SET Project's purpose is to support student governments and state student associations in their efforts to be stronger, more effective advocates for the student voice by providing training, consultation, materials and staff support. Over the past 20 years, the SET Project has worked with student leaders in every state to help them develop stronger associations and win concrete victories for students.
C2C Fellows
C2C Fellows engages 300 students each year in intensive, weekend leadership trainings. We challenge you to consider: What skills and experiences are needed to become people of power, people with the ability to affect the future, within five to ten years? C2C then supports Fellows to gain these skills. The US Constitution empowers citizens at age 25 to become members of Congress. Yet few young people even imagine pursuing this opportunity. More students have been inspired by young business entrepreneurs. Yet few develop the leadership skills needed to launch a green business.

Refinancing near retirement can be smart
By Amy Hoak, MarketWatch
Marketwatch | December 10, 2012
CHICAGO (MarketWatch)—Tempting low interest rates continue to make headlines, making refinancing your mortgage look attractive. But when retirement isn't far off, the decision to refinance can get more complicated.
After all, most pre-retirees are trying to reduce debt before their last day of work, not extend the amount of time they'll be on the hook for payments.
Still, for some homeowners with retirement on their minds, it makes sense to trade their higher mortgage rate for one near record lows, said Keith Gumbinger, vice president of HSH.com, a publisher of mortgage and consumer loan information. The money saved each month on your mortgage can be poured into other investments that could pay off in retirement, "whether that's a 401(k) or IRA or cleaning up other debts," he said.
If you haven't refinanced in the past few years, your monthly savings can be substantial. The 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 3.34% for the week ending Dec. 6, while the 15-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 2.67%, according to Freddie Mac's weekly survey of conforming rates. For those with a current mortgage rate near 5%, refinancing could mean significant improvement to their monthly cash flow.
Consider this: A homeowner who's 52 today and who wants to retire at 70 bought a home in 2002 with a $250,000 mortgage. He refinanced at 5% in 2003. If he refinanced again into a 3.49%, 30-year fixed-rate mortgage, his payment would go down $415 a month, according to Gumbinger's math.
The downside is the loan wouldn't be retired until he is 82, and it would cost $3,432 more in interest over its lifetime than if he didn't refinance.
To make that kind of trade-off work for you, it's critical to ensure the increased cash flow is used productively.
"You have to be determined to save the money and invest it in something that would yield a higher rate of return than the interest rate you're paying," said Rich Arzaga, founder of Cornerstone Wealth Management in San Ramon, Calif. Conservative vehicles including corporate or municipal bonds—held long term—are a good option, he said. Money market accounts and certificates of deposit probably won't cut it right now, with the paltry returns they're paying out.
For others, the monthly cash flow may not be worth the hassle or the cost of a refinance, especially if the homeowner is close to the end of the mortgage term. At that point, the bulk of the payment is going to principal, said Tyler Vernon, president of Biltmore Capital Advisors in Princeton, N.J.
"Banks do that because they know that most people don't have a mortgage for more than six years, so basically they're paid mostly interest up front," he said. But by the time the homeowner has five to 10 years left on a mortgage, he or she is paying much less interest, he said.
It's helpful to talk out your own personal scenario with a financial planner before deciding to pull the trigger. But here are a few factors to consider prior to making a decision.
Your personal time frames
When doing your calculations, it's important to consider how long you'll stay in the home and when you plan on retiring. Knowing your goals is essential in making this financial decision.
For instance, if your goal is simply to increase cash flow and owning your home free and clear isn't a priority, perhaps refinancing makes sense. Some people plan on downsizing when they retire or trading in their home for something more suitable, Gumbinger said. If you're one of those people, the idea of refinancing might not be as frightening—you'll be paying off that mortgage anyway when you sell your home.
But the time you're planning on staying in the home shouldn't be too short, since you'll want to be there long enough to recoup the closing costs on the refinancing.
That said, if you're planning on remaining in the home for good, with a goal of paying it off, you'll have to seriously think about how you'll pay the mortgage when you're no longer bringing home a paycheck. And you may have no interest in lengthening the mortgage term into retirement.
How old you are will also be a big factor. "If you're closer to 65, that's a different scenario than if you're 55 or 52," Gumbinger said.
Time left on the existing mortgage
Regardless of your personal time frame, if you have 10 years or more left on the existing mortgage, there's a chance it may make sense to refinance. With more than a decade to go, you're not yet applying as much payment to principal, said Bill Losey, president of Bill Losey Retirement Solutions, based in Wilton, N.Y.
For those with less than 10 years on the loan, it's a different situation, since more of your mortgage payment goes toward principal.
Furthermore, while lenders might offer a refinance product with a 10-year term, it will be difficult finding a mortgage with a shorter term than that, Gumbinger said. And if you're near retirement, it's unlikely you want to add another 20 years to your mortgage through a 30-year fixed product.
Risk tolerance
In the end, only you can decide how much risk you're comfortable with.
"I always say, you want to enter retirement completely debt free, with the only exception potentially being your mortgage," Losey said. "No one should have a mortgage past 70 tops, even at these historic low rates."
Others see some upside to extending your mortgage. With a mortgage paid off in retirement, you may have more control of your expenses but it could be more difficult to tap home equity if you need it. For instance, there's no guarantee reverse mortgage products will be available at some future date, Gumbinger said.
And you may not want to go that route anyway. Investments such as bonds and stocks that refund dividends are more liquid than your home equity, which could be helpful when those on a fixed income need cash—whether the reason is unexpected or not.
Either way, take a pass on mortgage life insurance, Gumbinger said. That's a policy that offers more protection to the lender, who will receive funds in the event of your untimely demise, he said. You're better off considering a standard term life policy instead; that way, the beneficiary has the freedom to do what he or she wishes with the proceeds—including, if he or she wishes, paying down the mortgage.

Try Something New! Check out These New Adult Fiction Titles!
I like to try new things and go to new places, and agree with the late, great Dr. Seuss when he said, "There's no limit to how much you'll know depending how far beyond zebra you go."
Yes, the only way to learn new things is to go out on a limb and go places that you've never been. My husband and I decided to treat our grandkids to an evening of Chinese food; we thought it would be fun for them to try something different. As the evening went on, the full plates before us told us that McDonald's is still the restaurant of choice for them.
My seven year old granddaughter remarked that "she's sure glad she doesn't live in China," and my nine year old grandson observed that our server spoke with an accent, and commented that "she must be Mexican or something." In fact, even French toast is considered foreign cuisine, because when offered French toast for breakfast, the oldest grandchild replied, "No thanks; I don't like anything French." Do you like to try new things? If you do, kick back, relax and check out these new fiction titles from your local branch of JCPL!
Within the coastal Oregon hamlet of Deception Bay, there is the Colony. Some see it as a cult; and the terrors that live within its walls unnerves even the most resilient residents. Eight months into a surrogate pregnancy, Detective Savannah Dunbar just wants to wrap up her paperwork and go on medical leave, but a brutal double homicide puts Savannah in crime-solving mode. This investigation differs from most, as it is complex and has become personal as well. As disturbing rumors about the Colony begin to surface, long buried secrets begin to rear their heads in "Something Wicked" by Lisa Jackson.
Maura Corrigan, married to her high school sweetheart, Pete, is happily raising three small kids in a peaceful Chicago suburb. Secure in her marriage and the fact that her parents live nearby, Maura's life is good. But in one single, distracted second in time, everything changes and a twist of fate brings Maura's world crashing down around her, and in that split second, her life and the lives of those around her are irrevocably changed. "Those We Love Most" by Lee Woodruff examines the complexities of family drama, family dynamics and the power of the human heart, and how, sometimes we must pick up the pieces and go on.
The Valley is in need of a financial boost, and in order to bring in some much needed revenue, the mayor of the Valley lures a movie studio to town. The star of the big production is Thad Perry, a ruggedly handsome but badly behaved actor who needs some babysitting so that he doesn't get into trouble. The perfect pair for the job is Bernie and Chet, and as this team of canine and human detectives begin their babysitting adventure, they begin to smell a rat, and that rat is Thad. Find out how these two super-sleuths track down and sniff out danger in "A Fistful of Collars," a Chet and Bernie mystery by Spencer Quinn.
I want to take the time as I end this article to honor the beloved master of words, Dr. Seuss, and so that I don't drone on and on, I'll wrap it up with a favorite quote of his; "So the writer who breeds more words than he needs is making a chore for the reader who reads." Happy birthday, Dr. Seuss!

This is my "hosts" file. I've never seen any popups/popunders on IMDB while using it. It pretty much bans most of the Internet DISCLAIMER: Use it at your own discretion and backup previous "hosts" file just in case you won't be able to get your daily dose of pr0n anymore. Might require restart of a system (not sure) and/or browser (sure).
I also have a shortcut pointing to %windir%\system32\notepad.exe "%SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts" in "Administrative Tools" that comes in handy once in a while I come across sites that link to anything I don't want to see in my browser. Usually, it just takes a moment to find a domain name of such linked content if you glimpse through the pages HTML code. BTW, some sites block viewing of source code in browsers (like this site) but you can still view it in some HTML editors (just open the sites address in it and it should retrieve any HTTP response) Once you get to know your enemies, simply add them to this "hosts" file and restart your browser.

hi All,
i have a java program that uses Jre6 (for the Swing based GUI) but also jre1.2.2 (that Visibroker 45 needs to make CORBA API call). if i install jre 1.2.2 and then jdk6 (includs jre6) all is ok. but if after all is installed,
i re-install jre 1.2.2 the GUI program will not start when i click on the jar file. i have a simple workaround to the problem (i just run: 'javaw -jar <jar file name>' and make sure in Path env variable the bin directory of jre6 is the first in the list or run:'<full path of javaw.exe in jre6 bin dir> -jar <jar file name>') and these options work great, but still it's very annoying i can't just click on jar file after i re-installed jre 1.2.2. it's more annoying since this program is used by a lot of people and it takes me long time to explain to them how to use the workaround/s in case of conflict (which there are sometimes). i've tried to change the default javaw.exe file/process that files of .jar extension are started with and nothing worked. it's got to be some jre conflict but i don't know what and how to fix it.
