Certainly part of the problem but its not the whole problem. My mother is OB nurse and had to go through not one but two trials where the physician was being sued. She's helped in the birth of over tens of thousands of babiesin a career that has spanned over 30 years, was part of group of nurses that implemented child birthing classes at Nesbitt decades ago and still gives them for General hospital. if you had a kid in in the last 3 decades in the Wyoming Valley there is excellent chance you meant Mom especially if it was in the last ten years or so as you she does the classes full time in addition to her regular nursing duties.
After both those trials she was ready to give it up and I think it's safe to say if she has to go through another one she will. The same goes for the doctors, a lot OB doctors won't even do high risk pregnancies anymore specifically because of large amount of lawsuits..

Even though the temperature was in the 70s over the weekend, I pulled out my recipe box and began thinking about what to serve my family on Thanksgiving Day.
Each year, we have the old favorites and then I try to add a new dish to the menu. It's hard for me to believe that Thanksgiving will soon be here, and you know what that means — Christmas is coming up right behind.
For 57 years, the good people of Northeast Philadelphia have been looking out for their neighbors at Christmas, making sure that those who are less fortunate have a full holiday dinner and each child has at least one gift under the tree.
The Northeast Times' Eleanor Smylie Community Fund does a great job of matching those who could use help at Christmas time with neighbors who have a few extra dollars to spare.
So far this year, the newspaper has received requests for help from 67 people. Among them are a dad who has lost his job, a single mom who is struggling to put food on the table and a family with a child with such a serious medical condition that just about everything goes to pay the medical bills.
The daily mailbag is also bringing us good news — checks from generous readers who are reaching out to help. Whether large or small, each donation is gratefully accepted on behalf of those who will receive gift cards from the community fund as a result.
We will print donors' names and the amounts in the paper, or we will honor requests to remain anonymous.
Last week, I cheered when I heard that Oxford Beverage had sent in a check for $1,000. That is by far the check with the biggest number of zeroes we've received so far. And I was told that this isn't the first year this company has helped out in such a big way. To me, that's the very definition of being a good neighbor, and for that we are grateful.
If you'd like to join the ranks of donors, or if you'd like to make a request for help, the address is the same. Write to us at:
Eleanor Smylie Community Fund
2512 Metropolitan Drive
Trevose, PA. 19053
Or you can reach me by the email or the phone number listed below.
If you are asking for help for yourself or if you know of someone who needs assistance, we need you to include the name and contact number of an agency or friend who can verify the information.
We are commited to helping as many people in need this holiday season as we can. I hope you will help us make this the most successful year to date. ••

"America's Got Talent" host Nick Cannon was on "Rachael Ray" Thursday (Nov. 14) where he talks about his wife Mariah Carey, like what's on her Christmas list and the "no-singing clause" that she has given him.
"It definitely has to be thoughtful, for someone like that who can buy
anything they want for themselves, it's all about a thoughtful gift," says Cannon. "So I try to
do sweet, funny stuff that makes her smile. A lot of custom-made things
… get something engraved with her name on it, or a poem when I write.
… paintings. I'm not great painter, but at least it came from the
But even a thoughtful present doesn't get Cannon the rights to sing in their household.
"In my house, there's a no-singing clause because my wife doesn't want me to have a poor influence on our children's vocal ability. I can't even teach 'em how to sing the ABCs. She's like, 'I'll handle that. That is not in key,'" he laughs.
We weren't really expecting him to, but Cannon did not address his wife's recent comments comparing "American Idol" to working in "hell" every day.

This week, we're going to turn you into a networking wizard, starting with getting to know the most important device on your network: the router. Router BasicsYour router is the glue that holds your home network together. It connects all your computers to one another, either through Ethernet cables or a wireless connection. A router is different than a modem: your modem connects you to the internet, while your router connects your computers to one another. When you hook up your router to the modem, however, you're then able to share that internet connection with all of the computers on your network. Sometimes modems will come with routers built-in, but this isn't always the case. Advertisement Devices that connect to your router—that is, the computers, tablets, smartphones, DVRs, game systems, and so on—are called clients. Each client on the network is given an IP address, which helps your router direct traffic. Clients within the network get a local IP address, while your modem gets a global IP address. Global IP addresses are like street addresses, while local IP addresses are like apartment numbers: one lets you find the building in relation to the rest of the world, while the other lets you find the specific location within the complex. These addresses make sure the right information from the outside world gets to the right computer on your network.Routers have a number of different features, so we'll go through some of the most common router specs and how they affect your home network.Wired vs Wireless You'll want to hardwire any computer that doesn't need to move around, like a desktop, since wired connections are fast, reliable, and cheap. They're far from ideal for devices you pick up and move around, though, like laptops, so for those we use a wireless connection (commonly known as Wi-Fi). Wi-Fi is more than adequate for simple web browsing, though wired connections are ideal if you're transferring big files, gaming, video chatting, or streaming video. Most people have a mix of wired and wireless devices on their network, so most of our discussion today will be focused on wireless routers. Since wireless routers allow for both wired and wireless connections, you can wire up when necessary, and connect over Wi-Fi everywhere else.Wireless ThroughputThroughput is the speed at which a router can transfer data. The transfer speed of your wireless connection is dependent on the wireless standard it uses. The most common standards today are 802.11g and 802.11n (also known as "wireless G" and "wireless N", respectively). Wireless N is faster than wireless G, though routers that support wireless N are also more expensive. Most new devices—like smartphones and laptops—support the faster wireless N. Advertisement Advertisement Your router isn't the only thing that determines wireless speed: you also need the correct kind of wireless card in your computer. If you have an older laptop, it might have an older wireless G card inside, meaning it can't take advantage of wireless N speeds. If you have a mix of N- and G-capable computers, you can turn on a wireless N feature called "mixed mode", which will let you use both on the same network. You'll get faster speeds on the wireless N clients and slower speeds on the wireless G clients. Some claim, however, that running both N and G devices on the same network can lower speeds across the network, even between a wireless N router and wireless N computer. So if you want the fastest possible speeds, you'll probably want all wireless N devices on that network.Wired ThroughputThe wired half of your router will come in one of two speeds: 10/100 Mbps and 10/100/1000 Mbps (also known as "gigabit"). 10/100 routers are cheaper, but won't transfer data between computers as quickly as gigabit routers will. If you're only using your router to connect to the internet, 10/100 is fine, since your internet connection is probably slower than 100Mbps, meaning you wouldn't be able to actually take advantage of the router's full speed. If you're transferring data between computers, however, you'll want to go with a gigabit router, since it'll transfer that data much faster than a 10/100 model.RangeWireless routers can only reach so far. If you have a big house and have the router on one side, you might not be able to access the network from the other side of the house. Your range, like your speed, is determined by the wireless standard you use. Wireless N has a longer range than wireless G, so if range is important you'll want to use wireless N.That said, there are many other ways to connect to your network from afar. Wireless extenders (also called wireless repeaters) are products you can buy that do exactly what they say—extend your network further. Alternatively, you can buy a powerline adapter, which lets you use your home's electrical wiring to hook a faraway device up to your router with an Ethernet cable (and thus get a faster connection than wireless would allow for). Number of Ports Routers have two types of ports in the back: LAN ports and WAN ports. Your WAN port hooks up to your modem (which, again, is what connects to the internet), while the LAN ports hook up to your computers and other clients. Most routers have one WAN port, but you'll need as many LAN ports as you have wired devices. If you have more wired devices than can fit on a router, you can plug them all in using a wired switch. A switch is like a power strip for your router: it lets you plug in more devices than the router originally allowed. Photo by Ari Zoldan.Number of BandsWireless routers broadcast on a radio band, and many new wireless N routers can broadcast on two bands. These are called, appropriately, dual band routers. Older routers and computers operate on a 2.4Ghz band only, while dual-band routers allow for both the 2.4Ghz band and a 5Ghz band. The 5Ghz band is great because it has less interference, since tons of other devices—from other networks to Bluetooth to cordless phones to microwaves—operate on the 2.4Ghz band. Advertisement Sponsored The main downside of the 5Ghz band is that, since it uses a higher frequency, it isn't as good at penetrating walls. As such, if you run your router in 5Ghz mode, you might have a shorter range than if you ran it in 2.4Ghz mode. In addition, some older devices don't support 5Ghz. The solution to this problem is to use a simultaneous dual-band router, which can broadcast on both bands at once.Wireless Security Unless you don't mind strangers eating your bandwidth and potentially accessing your networked files, you should always protect your wireless network with a password. WPA2 is currently the most secure type of wireless encryption, so make sure you use WPA2 if you can. Some old wireless devices won't support WPA, in which case you'll have use the less secure WEP instead. Basically every device made in the last four years support WPA2 encryption. If you're planning to use your router for a small business, you might want to look for a router with the "guest network" feature, which allows other people to access the internet without giving them full access to your computers and sensitive data.HackabilityHardware specs like these are important, but routers also come with a lot of software and firmware features, like DHCP reservations, Quality of Service, or firewalls that can make managing your network easier. However, the more of these features a router has, the more expensive it's likely to be. If you're comfortable with flashing a new firmware on your router, you're better off getting one that's compatible with a third-party firmware like DD-WRT or Tomato. Make sure your router is on DD-WRT's list of supported devices or Tomato's list of supported devices if you want to go this route. When It Comes Time to Buy a New RouterIf you have a particularly old router, you may read a lot of the above information and decide it's time to upgrade. Be sure to check out our guide to buying a Wi-Fi router, and take all the above information into account as you shop: for example, if you need your network to reach long distances, make sure you get a simultaneous dual-band router for maximum range. A note on user reviews: unlike most technology, reviews for wireless routers are not to be trusted. Most routers have a mix of 5-star "works perfectly" reviews and one star "totally sucks" reviews, and it's because everyone's home is different. There are so many other factors that go into network quality, like the walls, interference from other devices, and so on that you can't really extrapolate much from a given person's experience. The best thing to do is evaluate your needs, buy a router from a trusted brand that fits those needs, and return it if it doesn't work for you.Understanding your router is merely the first step in the process, but it's an important one. In the next few lessons, we'll be talking about some of the software and firmware features of your router (like the aforementioned DHCP reservations and Quality of Service) and how they can make your network as fast and reliable as possible. As always, if you're behind on your lessons, you can find everything you've missed and a PDF of all the lessons in the Know Your Network Complete Guide.

Greta Gerwig is fighting for love, struggling for happiness, striving for harmony in "Lola Versus." What she's really up against, though, are the contrivances piled on by the filmmakers of this aggravating indie romance.
"Lola Versus" deals with relationships in standard-issue Sundance style, ostensibly smarter and more genuine than what flows from the Hollywood rom-com pipeline yet really just as shallow at heart.
Writer-director Daryl Wein and co-writer and co-star Zoe Lister-Jones, a real-life couple themselves, manage some clever episodes in their year in the life of a New York woman newly dumped. While Gerwig is an earnest, often adorable mess as Lola, the people around her are just urban types: the supportive, sharp-tongued friend (Lister-Jones); the hunky fiance (Joel Kinnaman) who needs distance; the sensitive male best pal (Hamish Linklater) who's clearly in love with Lola.
Wein and Lister-Jones weave this bunch into a romantic mush of self-absorption, a round robin in which everyone sleeps around with one another then whines over the complications that arise.
Gerwig, who was terrific opposite Ben Stiller in "Greenberg" and managed to be fresh and funny in last year's dreary "Arthur" remake, takes on "Lola Versus" with the same spirit and intensity. She's a great actress in the making, full of quirks and pauses and twitches that bring far more depth and authenticity to Lola than the things the filmmakers have her say and do.
We meet Lola as she's turning 29, when her life is progressing in just the way the smart, conventional New Yorker hopes. Working toward a doctorate degree and a safe life in academia, Lola lives with longtime boyfriend Luke (Kinnaman), who pops the question and enthusiastically goes along with wedding plans until three weeks before the big day, when he abruptly breaks it off.
"Lola Versus" then treads lightly in action, languidly in spirit, through randy hookups involving Lola, Luke and their buddies Alice (Lister-Jones) and Henry (Linklater).
Lola's friends are all so measured, so affected. The quips and rejoinders Lister-Jones and Wein write for them are too whip-smart for their own good, the filmmakers laboring for hip and loose but delivering something feigned and calculated.
Debra Winger and Bill Pullman have a few engaging moments as Lola's hippie-dippy parents, dispensing laidback advice to their obsessive little girl.
A few minor characters are tossed in to break up the tedium of this inbred circle. There's Lola's bizarre night with a prison architect (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) she meets in a seafood store.
Think about it. A prison architect she meets in a seafood store, who has - small spoilers here - an extra-large penis and coos along to an Ani DiFranco song during sex. Could happen. Maybe it has among the endless romantic permutations possible in a world of 7 billion people.
But it's the sort of encounter that's really reserved for movies such as "Lola Versus" that strain to entertain and pretend to edify but that really just wear their pretensions on their sleeves.
To her credit, Gerwig really goes for it, her Lola a seething nutcase who tries to draw everyone into her crumpled, myopic world of self-pity. That friends continue to indulge her - or even speak to her - after some of her shenanigans stretches credibility.
At some point, a good slap in the face is the best medicine for a loved one caught up in her own little train wreck of a love life. That's what Lola needs and deserves. And it's what much of the audience will be hoping for - Lola versus palm to the cheek.
"Lola Versus," a Fox Searchlight release, is rated R for language, sexuality and drug use. Running time: 86 minutes. Two stars out of four.
Motion Picture Association of America rating definitions:
G - General audiences. All ages admitted.
PG - Parental guidance suggested. Some material may not be suitable for children.
PG-13 - Special parental guidance strongly suggested for children under 13. Some material may be inappropriate for young children.
R - Restricted. Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian.
NC-17 - No one under 17 admitted.

BOWLING GREEN — With the decision last week to expand the Wood County Park District's board of commissioners from three to five, Probate Judge David Woessner is looking for residents interested in serving on the board.
Judge Woessner, who by state law appoints the members of the board, is asking that county residents interested in the appointment submit a letter of interest and resume or other pertinent information to his office at the courthouse by Nov. 18. The terms are to begin Jan. 1.
On Oct. 19, park commissioners voted 2-1 to increase the size of the board following criticism over their decision earlier this year to grant double-digit raises to some employees. The board rescinded the raises, then hired a consultant to look at wages in similar-sized park districts.

Iodine – "The Universal Medicine"
5% Lugol's / SSKI Solution Dosage Chart
2 drops 5% Lugol's Solution - contains 5mg iodine and 7.5mg iodide
(5% Lugol's solution contains 50 mg iodine and 75 mg iodide / ml; above calulation based on 20 drops/ml)
1 drop SSKI (Super Saturated Potassium Iodide) – contains ~50mg iodide
♦ Make sure you are not allergic to Lugol's solution (5%) or SSKI – rub a drop into back of forearm and leave for 24 hours to see if there is any reaction.
♦ For internal doses, always take Lugol's or SSKI in 4-6 oz of water/juice/milk - preferably with a tsp. of apple cider vinegar for slight acidification;
♦ Don't take iodine at the same time as Vitamin C - which will negate disinfectant effect of iodine; Take vitamin C at least 2 hours before or after taking Lugol' solution.
♦ Antidotes for iodine overdose
√ Chocolate or cocoa - high in bromine which displaces iodine;
√ Vitamin C – take ¼ tsp. (~2.5g) in juice or water
Chart refers to 5% Lugol's Solution unless otherwise specified
5% Lugol's
2 drops/day
/Antiviral, /Antifungal
Atrial Fibrillation
Build from 1 up to 5 drops
Then 1-2 drops for maintenance
A gradual build-up, holding each new dose level for a few days and monitoring for any problems is advised, until your heart begins to beat smoothly, at which point your body is receiving sufficient iodine (for most people this is around 9-30mg). Stay at this dose for 3 months, then begin to cut back each week. If you begin to feel your heart act up again, you have gone past your maintenance dose - Generally, this is around 3-12 mg.
Rub in for ~ 3 months
Eventually a crust forms, beneath which fine hairs will start to grow; Can use decolorized tincture of iodine (doesn't stain)
Bladder infection
1-2 drops 4x/day
Works better than antibiotics;
4 drops 2x/day
Dr. Brownstein used from 200mg (i.e. 8 drops 4x/day) up to 300 mg for prostate and breast cancer patients having metastases. Use iodine in a nebulizer for lung cancer;
8 drops/day
In blood
Cholesterol (high)
2-4 drops/day
Iodine reduces Lipoprotein (a) and acts as antioxidant to prevent oxidative damage to arterial walls;
Chronic bronchitis/COPD
3-6 drops/day
Remarkable expectorant (removes excessive mucus in chronic lung diseases); Reduces bronchial infection with regular use; Iodine can be put into a nebulizer for aerosol treatment for transdermal effect into the lung tissues in the case of lung cancer, emphysema, asthma and tuberculosis.
Cold / Flu
6 drops, 2-3 x over 24 hours
Prevents infection, aids healing;
Apply Lugols
with Q-tip
Dab the dermatitis with soaked Q-tip; If on the face use decolorized iodine tincture; sensitive skin (E.g. around your nose) will sting. Don't inhale fumes while it dries (~10 secs). Apply vitamin E oil (E.g. from capsule) to keep area moist day and night and prevent reddened, dry skin from flaking. Do the topical iodine for 2 days, 3x a day. After the 2nd day, cut back to 1x a day, but keep going with the vitamin e oil. After 3 days of 1x daily application, cut the iodine back to every other day for 10 days (or less). Keep up the vitamin e oil every day until the dermatitis has disappeared completely. Initially the skin will look red and inflamed, but the vitamin E speeds up the healing process."
Dewormer for
Cats and dogs
1-2 drops depending on size
slower than commercial wormers but safer and with less side effects.
Estrone detox.
Metabolizes carcinogenic estrone and estrogen metabolite 16-α-hydroxyestrone --► "anti-carcinogenic" estriol;
Fibrocystic Disease
of the Breast (FDB)
4 drops
This dose has been observed to reduce FDB to insignificance in 3-6 months. MINIMUM amount of iodine required for control and prevention of FDB is equivalent to 0.1 mg/kg body weight/day (this is the amount used by Ghent et al). For example, for a 110 # woman, the minimum daily amount of iodine would be 5 mg.
Fibrotic conditions /
Rub in 3x/day
Mix 50/50 w/ DMSO
Dupuytren's contracture (thickening along a tendon/pulls finger down towards palm) / Peyronie's disease (thickening along penis shaft / painful erections); + Taking 2g PABA 3x/day helps;
Can take few months; (up to a year for keloids);
Mix 50/50 w/ DMSO Q-tip swab
Peri-anal / Recto-anal fistulas (tunnels); patience and frequent swabbing inside and out required. DMSO helps absorption;
Food poisoning
6 drops,
3-4 x daily – for 3 days
Brings relief for food poisoning very quickly – usually within a couple of hours; E.g. Salmonella or Giardia;
2 drops /day
Gerd is usally due to insufficient stomach acid, not too much; Iodine is needed to make stomach acid;
Goiter, Cretinism
0.05 mg/day
The smallest intake to prevent these severely iodine deficient conditions
Heavy metal detoxification
Urinary levels of mercury, lead, cadmium increase several fold after 24 hrs; aluminum takes a month or more of continued supplementation;
SSKI (20 drops) +flax oil
Rub in at bedtime; SSKI by itself stings, so mix with flax oil;
1-6 drops
Doses in this range seemed equally effective in resolving underactive thyroid.
Infected hangnail
Rub in several times daily
Problem usually gone a in a few days.
Colorless SSKI
Dip your fingernails in colorless iodine once a day for 1 week; then once a week for 3 to 4 weeks; then once a month. It dries almost instantly. It begins hardening the nails under the cuticle and as the nail grows out it stays hard and un breakable. Once the new hard nail reaches the length you want, you will never again have chipped and broken nails.
Nuclear Power plant Accident
See Radioactive Fallout SSKI doses
In the event of a nuclear power plant accident, the Japanese government gives those affected 50 mg of iodide/day to prevent thyroid cancer from the thyroid's excessive absorption of radioactive iodine. Japanese typically consume high amounts of iodine/iodide in Kelp.
Ovarian Cyst
Dose similar to FDB
Precancerous skin lesions/ leg ulcers
Rub in twice daily
Regenerates skin from bottom up, eventually sloughing off old skin with little/no scar formation; adding vitamin E helps too;
Radioactive Fallout
SSKI Dose
Adult: 100mg iodide(2drops)
Child: 3-18yrs
(1 drop SSKI)
Infant: 1 mth-2yrs( ½ drop)
Taken ½ hour to 1 day before radioactive iodines are swallowed /inhaled prevents ~99% of damage to thyroid by saturating it with non-radioactive iodine. Excess non-absorbed radioactive iodine is quickly eliminated by kidneys. Iodide dose provides protection for 24 hours. Babies NOT protected via breast milk.
More dose info: U.S. Center for Disease Control
Note: 1 – 130mg Potassium Iodide tablet contains ~100mg iodide.
Lugol's Dose is 26 drops = ~100mg iodide
Reduce Gas from eating beans
Soak beans in water for 1 hr or more with 2 drops added
Pour off soaking water before cooking, and add fresh water. Lugol's inactivates an enzyme-inhibitor in beans, which interferes with starch digestion in the gut, producing gas.
Apply topically
Ringworm is a fungus; clears in a few days
Sebaceous cysts
Lugol's or SSKI mixed with DMSO
Cysts contain oily material, appear on face, groin, labia; rub in mixture for a week or two to dissolve cyst's fatty contents. Iodine makes all oils, fats, cholesterol (wax) water-soluble.
Sialoliths / parotid duct stones
3-4 drops SSKI in water
"Stones" can form in the duct(s) carrying saliva from the parotid glands (located at the "angle of the jaw"). 3-4 daily drops ofSSKI reportedly dissolves parotid duct stones within 4-8 months.
Skin tags/moles
Rub in morning and night; tags fall off in ~ 1 week, moles disappear
Sore throat/ Tonsillitis
Spray area
Put some SSKI or Lugol's in a spray bottle; relief with 24 hours;
6 drops 3x/day
4-7 days
Kills bacteria; Decreases acidity in bladder.
Vaginal infection
20-30 drops in small douche 1x/day
Takes 5-10 days to resolve; To make douche, use 2 tablespoons of an iodine solution to 1 quart of warm water once per day.

Tell Mitch McConnell: Stop the GOP Gridlock
In an incredible abuse of power, Mitch McConnell has staged over 550 filibusters since he became Minority Leader in 2007. It's the highest rate of obstruction in history – but a badge of honor for McConnell, who once declared himself the "proud Guardian of Gridlock." Stand with the DSCC and tell Senate Republicans to end this obstruction!
Now, after nearly three decades in Washington, McConnell is the embodiment of political dysfunction. He used partisan gridlock to kill job growth, stop aid to small businesses, hurt women's ability to gain equal pay for equal work, and cut benefits for seniors and veterans.
But our grassroots army is stronger than Republican gridlock. McConnell is no match for the type of movement we're creating.
Become a part of it. Support Senate Democrats in telling Mitch McConnell we won't stand for GOP gridlock that obstructs American progress.
By signing up, the DSCC will keep you updated on our efforts to end obstruction in the Senate.
- Mitch McConnell

Manhattan Jaspers coach Steve Masiello will get to keep his job as head basketball coach as long as he completes his bachelor's degree at the University of Kentucky, the school announced in a statement Monday.
Masiello had indicated on his résumé that he earned a degree in communications from Kentucky, but the University of South Florida learned this information was incorrect when conducting a background check during Masiello's candidacy for its coaching vacancy.
Manhattan placed Masiello on leave on March 26. The school requires that its basketball coach have a degree.
Masiello will be on unpaid leave until he receives his degree. During his absence, associate head coach Matt Grady will lead the program as interim head coach.
"I am extremely grateful and humbled by the opportunity to continue as the head men's basketball coach at Manhattan College," Masiello said. "I made a mistake that could have cost me my job at an institution I love. Details matter. Manhattan College has shown me a great deal of compassion and trust during this process, and I will do everything in my power to uphold that trust. I understand that I am very fortunate to have the chance to remain here at Manhattan."
Masiello has a 61-39 record in three seasons at Manhattan. The Jaspers went 28-5 this season, which ended with a loss to Louisville in the NCAA tournament.

No parts required.
Replace a broken optical drive fan to keep temperatures down.
Stick a heavy-duty suction cup near each of the two top corners of the glass panel.
While lightly holding the suction cup against the glass, raise the movable handle until it is parallel with the other handle (as highlighted by the third picture).
You can easily lift the glass panel off the magnets with only your fingernails (or something thin like a credit card or a guitar pick). No need to buy suction cups you will only use once.
Yes, you don't need the specific suction cups to remove the display cover - it's held on by magnets, and if you start at the center by the iSight you can work out to the edges and remove it. I had an iPhone screen suction cup around and it helped with balancing the screen when you pull it out fully, but by no ways is it required.
Thanks!!! Worked excellently.
I used a plunger (clean first ;-) to get the screen off, and http://exirion.net/ssdfanctrl/ for fan control.
Then, i did not take out the whole display and left it in the hinges on the bottom side and held it up with two small cardboard boxes. Easy enough to disconnect the hdd then.
I replaced with an ssd, put that into a ssd enclosure. Had to drill an extra hole in it to fasten the pins that hold it in place.
Used Carbon Copy Cloner to make an image from the old hdd, with the sad connected via usb. Checked it of it booted via System Preferences > Startup Disk. It worked so the took the imac apart and replaced the disk. Booted, everything was working as always, only faster!
I'm replacing my optical drive too. what exactly needs to be plugged into the SSD? I don't have the kit - as I am not sure one is required if I buy something like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0056OB...
Can you please advise? Can I do it with this piece, or do I need to get the entire bracket kit?
My display data cable forks, with a smaller section going up near the camera board. Where it forks, it is attached to the aluminum plate that attaches around the cpu board. I haven't seen any images that look similar, and I'm stumped at how to remove this second section of the cable. 2010 i7 build to order
Gently lift the glass panel perpendicular to the face of the LCD enough to clear the steel mounting pins attached along the underside of the top edge of the glass panel.
Pull the glass panel away from the lower edge of the iMac and carefully set it aside.
you should do this mac up, because, for me, one of the suction cup failed, and the glass fall into the lcd screen. Now there is a big hole in it...
do you still have this panel?
Reassembly: After powering on and running for a few minutes, found a large whitish patch on the screen. Persists after powerdown.
Turned out to be condensation, though it didn't look like it - more like fine white powder rubbed in. Humidity is very high this time of the year. Fix: start airconditioner in a room, leave it running a while, take iMac in, prise open the glass again. Condensation vanishes instantly. Keep it out for a ~15 minutes running infinite loops to get iMac nicely heated up and fans running. Snap glass back.
I used a Swiffer dry cloth to get all the dust off the screen while just blowing with my mouth at a steep angle. I know I didn't get every speck, but the screen looks perfect once assembled and lit again. Removing the glass from the screen is pretty easy if you need to re-clean it.
I used a microfiber cloth instead, which worked well. The same type as yo use to clean eye glasses, but in a larger form factor.
Daniel -
I didn't crack the screen, but it popped out of the shims and then popped back in, as if the glass edge is magnetic or has steel in it to connect to magnets. Be careful with this step — it is pretty nerve-wracking, but doable!
You need a big clean surface free, or at least 2 or more free surfaces because the iMac, the glass and the LCD display are quite bulky. You'll also probably need space for a tablet or a laptop to read this guide while you are working. And don't forget room to work on the optical unit and for the tools you are going to use. I covered a large table with a double layer of bubble wrap. In my opinion it's better to put the glass face down to limit powder sticking on the internal surface.
Remove the eight T10 Torx screws securing the LCD to the outer case.
Be careful not to lose these screws when they are unthreaded. Use tweeters to grab them before removing the Torx driver.
To prevent screws close to the magnets to leave your screwdriver, use a straw to encapsulate your screws. This is especially useful when putting them back. See pictures for details: http://cjoint.com/?CLCpN1nmK4M and http://cjoint.com/?CLCpOy6aF9G
That was a brilliant idea. After trying for ten minutes without luck, the straw technique helped immensely.
Carefully lay the iMac stand-side down on a flat surface.
Use a thin hooked tool to lift one side of the top edge of the display by its steel outer frame.
Be very careful not to hook the Bluetooth antenna cable while you're lifting the display out. It's hiding under the top left corner of the iMac. I managed to snag mine with the paperclip and ended up pulling the antenna cable clean out of the tiny gold connector. Some very precise reconstruction work was required to get the cable seated in the connector again and back up to full signal strength.
Use a pair of tweezers to pull the vertical sync ribbon cable out of its socket on the LED driver board near the top left corner of your iMac.
Can I purchase this cable separately?
After removing the display, I noticed a high pitched whine coming from the machine, different loudness for different levels of display brightness. Reading up on it, it seems that the problem is with the vertical sync cable (and this is a well-known issue with Apple with new machines, too). So be careful when reinserting this cable!
I noticed that the vertical sync cable seems to have been updated since the guide was produced. It now has a more normal plug and socket and 'regular' wires instead of the flat ribbon cable shown here. I used narrow nosed pliers instead of tweezers to unclip it as I was afraid that just pulling on the wires could have broken them.
WARNING: Take extreme care when removing these wires as mine were not a ribbon cable but individual tiny wires. I removed them cautiously with tweezers OK but when re-inserting, one of the wires came off. Obviously someone had been in here before.
I changed the HD yesterday and when I reinstalled the Display I had the same problem then Peter Sinclair. I started to panic first. But then I reinstalled the Pannel without re-insterting the cable at all and nevertheless my iMac works perfectly since 14 hours now. I'm really confused!
My vertical sync ribbon cable had two of the four contacts bent back, it may even have been like this originally. I straightened them out as best I could under a magnifying glass, and after reinserting, everything is working OK. Seems this cable is not particularly critical. Also, I used needle nose pliers for this and the other connectors, I can't get enough grip with tweezers.
Tweezers didn't work for me due to the angle and lack of grip (they kept slipping and I was concerned about squeezing any harder). I just used my fingers to grab the connector as close to the connection as possible for both removal and insertion and it worked just fine. I have big hands and meaty fingers, so this method should work fine for anyone.
I have a late 2009 27" Mac and did something similar to Gabe, but being alone, after unplugging the vertical sync cable, I used two wooden chopsticks to hold the screen at about 45° and without disconnecting any more cables I could quite easily access the Superdrive to remove and replace with a 240GB SSD with help from a caddy from TheNatural2020, which required a tiny modification.
All in all it took me about 45 minutes and was much easier than expected. It is working at a negotiated SATA speed of 3 Gbps Some report a speed of only 1.5 Gbps, but from what I had read before purchasing the Crucial M500, going for a 6 Gbps SSD is worse on a late 2009 Mac as it has to default to the basic SATA 1 speed of 1.5 Gbps, while the slower 3 Gbps SATA II drive works at 3 Gbps. The time from the Apple logo till the sign-in screen on startup has gone from 33.5 seconds to 8.5 secs, and my internal hard drive is a 7200rpm
I am VERY satisfied and it was much easier than expected.
Thanks for this suggestion! I didn't have chopsticks, but was able to use some pens instead. The pens are shorter, but still provided sufficient room for my tools to get to the screws holding the HD. I noticed there are two large, thumb size, indentations in the frame under the LCD that the pens fit into nicely. Since I did the repair by myself, this really sped up the process and I was able to complete the HD swap and memory addition in about 25 minutes. (I had planned 2 hours. Happy, happy, happy!)
barry -
I also did this step and then went straight to step 10. I installed a SSD so I didn't do step 15 either. You can use this to control the fans: http://exirion.net/ssdfanctrl/
Overall, great guide! Thank you.
This was for me the hardest step when reassembling the iMac.
I had to open and close the iMac several times as each time some of the cables was not properly connected: The vertical sync, the display data cable connector, even the Bluetooth antenna was off at some point and I had to re-open every time! Finally I left the vertical sync cable disconnected as with each operation it was in very bad condition and impossible to plug in. I'm amazed at how bad designed is this cable and how easy is to break it! It's nice to know that they improved it, poor technicians.
I'd like to replace it in the future but I really don't know how or if it is available in its more up-to-date version… I didn't feel like dissasembling everything again to see how is it connected.
The portion of this little cable that plugs into the receptor is stiffer than the rest of the cable, but it is very slippery. For me, it was also very tight. Tweezers and fingers just slipped right off of it. Fortunately, I didn't tear the cable. I ended up using needle-nose pliers wrapped with cellophane to get traction. It was also very difficult to reinsert. By raising the display to the maximum level with all the other cables connected, I was able to push it in with my fingers.
Also: if you get any smudges on the display, a lens pen works great to remove them. I used a swiffer to pick up dust.
I opened the case as far as I could without stretching this cable and used my fingers to get it. The end of the ribbon where it connects is stiff, so you can grab it there. There's not connector; the stiff part just slides in and out. Getting it back in is a pain, but if you get the perfect angle it slides back in without much force.
That's what I ran into with my friends iMac as well. it was just (very carefully slid into place. a piece of celotape held it in as we put the pieces together.
Pull the cable AWAY from the connector. Some cables have a plastic connector cap attached to the end. This one does not. The cable just slips out as if pulling a stick of gum out of a package. I used my index finger and thumb, no tweezers needed.
I also plugged it out with my fingers, got more feeling in them. Put it in the same way. There is no barb or something on the cable, so this should be quite safe when not using too much force. And I also used chopsticks to keep the display up, just like an engine hood.
Rotate the display out of the outer case enough to disconnect the LED backlight power cable from the LED driver board.
Step 7 MAY be better done prior to Step 6. 7's cord comes tight before there is enough lift room to get to Step 6's plug in my opinion.
The connector has a simple locking mechanism, essentially a ridge on the top where the thumb is placed in the picture. If you push down gently there the latch raises and you can pull the cable out.
I found step 6 the most difficult of the whole procedure. The way I unclipped the connector was from the front, with my thumbnail. There's a little ridge over which the cable clicks tight. If you use your thumbnail to lift the connector over that ridge, you can then easily remove the cable. (Maybe iFixit should that advise to the guide, since especially step 6 is a bit too concise imho.)
Squeeze the two display data cable connector arms together to unlock it from its socket on the logic board.
Pull the display data cable connector away from its socket on the logic board.
NOTE! The internal video connector on the logic board is quite fragile - proceed with extra care when disconnecting. There are many postings of Mac users who have broken the display connector and are then left with quite a challenging proposition to replace it. Here is the link to one such thread: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.p....
Ditto. It is very fragile. Mine pulled off the motherboard while doing the upgrade (all else went well). Problem occurred because I tried to do the drive swap without removing the display. I had someone hold it up for me. Display is heavy and you can't feel the tug of the cable. Disaster.
The repair is beyond most computer repair folks. Found these guys http://www.dttservice.com/ and they are great. For $195 they fixed it in 24hours.
I ran into a big problem with step 7: my display data cable did not have any sort of plug to connect to the logic board. Instead, the cable seemed to be soldered onto the board or simply run under this small copper-colored band. There was no plastic plug to detach/attach.
I was afraid to pull on the cable and break something, so I simply had a friend hold up the LCD and I replaced the logic board without removing the display. I'm not sure what I would have done if I needed to replace the drive.
Has anyone else run into this issue where the display data cable doesn't have a plug? And are there alternative ways to detach it safely?
@fronesis - on my iMac it wasn't possible to pull out the connector at first. There was a small rectangular metal clip which locked the connector in place - this had to be pulled up first, and then the connector came out extremely easily.
I'm having blackscreen issue and this cable is my main suspect. Here is my post regarding this issue.
Lift the display for enough clearance to disconnect the LCD thermal sensor cable connector from its socket on the logic board.
Be very very careful when you pull out this plug as it is extremely fragile and also reattaching the LCD thermal sensor plug and very very gently ensure that the pins are actually going into the connector before you push the plug in. i damaged the top part of the plastic housing which then made it difficult to insert the plug into the connector. I can't believe how easy it was to damage this connector!! If you don't attach the LCD thermal sensor plug correctly the Mac fans will go crazy at full speed. It took a good 15 minutes to get the pins to finally go into the plug and they can bend easily.
This was too tight to get with my hands. I used needle nose pliers to grab the plastic connector and it popped right out. I need pliers to get it to snap back in too. The wire itself if very thin so be sure to only grab the connector.
Carefully pull the display toward the top edge of your iMac and lift it out of the outer case.
Remove the four T10 Torx screws securing the optical drive to the outer case.
Pull the optical drive thermal sensor connector straight away from its socket on the logic board.
This step is not necessary. I have problems with the pulling out, and found that it's not necessary to out it in this case.
Agreed. Leave it plugged in and peel the buffer tape and temp sensor off the optical drive assembly while it's still in the computer.
What problems did you have?
Don't do that! It's not necessary to pull the sensor cable out. And it cost me an hour to find out that it was this sensor cable and not the LCD sensor cable that made the fans spin at 3000+rpm. The less sensor cables you remove, the easier to find the culprit if you stumble into fan issues.
Insert a spudger between the optical drive connector and the optical drive.
Twist the spudger to slightly separate the optical drive connector from the optical drive, then use your fingers to pull the connector away from the drive.
Hello, is the sata & power cabla from the mac can directly feet inside the SSD?
Lift the left edge of the optical drive slightly and pull it away from the right side of the outer case.
During reassembly, note that there are two holes in the optical drive face plate into which two stubby plastic posts must engage for proper positioning.
Carefully move the rear I/O board ribbon cable to reveal the optical drive fan connector hidden underneath.
Disconnect the optical drive fan by pulling its connector away from the socket on the logic board.
Remove the single T10 Torx screw securing the optical drive fan to the outer case.
Pull the optical drive fan away from the outer case to lift it off the three plastic posts around its perimeter.
Carefully maneuver the optical drive fan out of the iMac, minding any cables that may get caught.

Normally, the cells lining the inside of the cornea (endothelial cells) help maintain a healthy balance of fluids within the cornea. Healthy endothelial cells prevent the cornea from swelling and help keep the cornea clear. But with Fuchs' dystrophy, the endothelial cells slowly die off, and probably do not function correctly, resulting in fluid buildup within the cornea (swelling or edema). This causes corneal thickening and blurred vision.
Fuchs' dystrophy can be inherited. The genetic basis of the disease is complex — family members can be affected to very variable degrees, and sometimes not at all.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Where do you have the best chance of climbing the economic ladder?
Try New Jersey or Maryland. Just don't go to Oklahoma or South Carolina.
Residents of eight states, primarily in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, have the best shot of moving on up, according to the Pew Economic Mobility Project, which just released what it calls the first state-level study on the subject.
But those living in nine southern states have the poorest chance of bettering their situations, the project found.
Economic mobility has entered the spotlight recently after the Occupy Wall Street movement called attention to the nation's growing income inequality problem. The growing divide between the haves and have-nots have led some to question whether the American Dream can still be achieved.
Pew found that it can still be, but where you live in America is a factor.
"Americans still believe in the American dream and that equal opportunity should exist for all," said Diana Elliott, the project's research manager. "The differences show there isn't equal opportunity for mobility in every state."
The project looked at three different measures of economic mobility over a 10-year span:
--Absolute mobility, which examines residents' average earnings growth over the period.
--Relative upward mobility, which looks at the share of residents in the bottom half of the national earnings distribution who move up at least 10 percentiles.
--Relative downward mobility, which measures the percent of residents in the top half of the national earnings distribution who move down at least 10 percentiles.
The study focused on Americans born between 1943 and 1958 and measured their earnings when they were age 35 to 39 and again when they were age 45 to 49.
Nationwide, average earnings grew 17% over the period, while 34% of people experienced relative upward mobility and 28% lost ground.
Maryland, New Jersey and New York performed better than the national average on all three measures, while Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Utah had two measures that beat the national average.
On the flip side, Louisiana, Oklahoma and South Carolina had worse mobility on all three measures. Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina and Texas had more limited mobility on two of the measures.
The rest of the nation was not statistically different from the national average, though some states scored particularly well on one measure. Some 39% of Californians, for instance, experienced relative upward mobility, as did 43% of Colorado residents and 47% of Rhode Islanders.
Geographic mobility did not matter on a state level, Pew found, though it does matter to individuals. Those who move out of their birth states had better mobility on average than those who did not -- though only one-third of Americans leave the state in which they were born.
Pew's findings did not reveal why certain states did better than others, but the researchers say that on a national level, mobility is affected by education levels, savings and assets and neighborhood poverty levels.
That the South has lower than average opportunities for advancement is not that surprising to some.
The South had the highest share of counties with the greatest income inequality, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Some 32% of Southern counties ranked in the top fifth in terms of inequality, versus 12% in the Northeast and West each.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – The Islamic Center of Nashville is suing the state in federal court after it says it was denied a tax exemption.

Cancer Risks for Myasthenia Gravis and A Family History08/26/2003 |
My father has Myasthenia Gravis and has recently begun taking Imuran,Prednisone and Mestinon. My question is his brother had prostate cancer, his father died at age 53 of multiple myeloma, as well as two paternal aunts died in their 20`s and 50`s with some type of cancer and a paternal uncle died of "bone cancer"first diagnosed at approximately age 65. What are the risks involved in taking Imuran with such a bad family history.
Your family history is certainly interesting with the number of family members who have been diagnosed with cancers of various types, and I would encourage you to think about contacting a genetics center for evaluation of potential inherited cancer susceptibility syndromes. However, I think this discussion would be best addressed with your father`s doctor. Is your father`s doctor aware of the number of cancers in the family? And why do you think taking Imuran will have an impact on your father`s chance of developing cancer? Please talk with his doctor about your concerns.

High Standard HD military .22
My dad received a High Standard HD military .22 pistol from my great grandfather that he had with him while serving in WW2. That's the story I've heard.
My questions are... The pistol jams up no matter what ammo I use for it (CCI, Winchester, federal etc) about once or so every magazine. We are wondering if it is the magazine that is causing the problem. Has anyone had an experience with these pistols? Do they jam a lot etc? Does anyone know of any places where I can buy a new magazine for it? Thanks a lot! Kevin |

Your jamming problem is almost 100% certain to be the magazine(s). High Standards are superb .22 pistols, but they are probably the most finicky pistols made about their magazines. Their magazines are their weakest link. While the original manufacturer closed down a long time ago, there is a new High Standard Company that purchased the manufacturing rights to them and have new production guns available as well as parts. I have only heard good things about their new production pistols. Their web site is:
http://www.highstandard.com I would like one or two additional magazines for my High Standard and am considering ordering from them. |

saber9 gave you the link - look for "magazine adjustments" on their website and then you just have to go to the range and try it - I have a Duramatic that had problems but once the magazine was properly adjusted it has consumed 1,000 rounds without a hitch.
And yeah, if you have to buy an original HS magazine they are expensive - Enjoy - the HD is a blast to shoot. |

Magazine feed lips can be adjusted: Find a bolt that the head will just rattle around a little inside the mag. Cut slots on the sides of the head of the bolt with a hack saw. Use these slots to 'tweak' the feed lips.
If the gun is that old, the mag springs might not meet specs. Wolff springs (gunsprings.com)has them. rimfirecentral.com can help you. My High Std isn't quite that old, but it's extremely ammo sensitive. It runs best with CCI "target" . My local gunshow usually has my mags for much less $ than elsewhere. |

H-S mags
I would not order mags from SG. That is only because you do not know who the manufacturer is. There are a number of after-market H-S mags available that just will not work. Even when tweaked, they are made in a lighter gauge steel and will not hold the tweak.

Another one here with Grandpa's HD. I haven't had any extensive, or repeated jamming problems. Lucky I guess. I have had more than normal failures to fire. I think the hammer spring is a bit weak.
I use nothing but standard velocity, or match ammo, and although It doesn't get as much range time as some of my others, it's very accurate, and fun to shoot.

How large of an area can one bottle of this be expected to clean? - Asked by Claire on 28-May-14
This 2.5 oz. jar should clean one large painting, depending on the extent of the dirt and how heavily it is applied. - Answered by MisterArt on 29-May-14We have an oil-on-canvas painting that we hung above our fireplace for 20 years. Now it has soot all over the painting and frame. Will this product work for us as we have no background in art? - Asked by Lorraine L on 01-Feb-14
This product will help remove soil from the surface. It may not be effective on several layers of soot accumulated over time. May take additional applications or ultimately require a professional restoration service. - Answered by MisterArt on 05-Feb-14Will one jar be enough for a 36 in. x 50 in. painting? - Asked by Cheryl enlow on 23-Nov-13
This is only 2 1/2 ounces; I do not think one jar would be enough. - Answered by MisterArt on 25-Nov-13My painting has smoke residue. Will this product be good for cleaning it? - Asked by GRF on 13-Nov-13
The only cleaner we sell for oil paintings is the Winsor and Newton Picture Cleaner. It is to clean soiled oil paintings, but I cannot guarantee this will clean smoke damage. You may have to call a conservation business to really remove the damage. - Answered by MisterArt on 14-Nov-13Can I remove Grumbacher original varnish with this product? - Asked by linda on 25-Oct-12
This product is just to remove any external soiling or oxidation. To remove a varnish from an oil painting, you should consult a restoration professional. If you want to do it yourself then there are plenty of videos online that can show you, but it is a tricky process without experience. - Answered by MisterArt on 07-Nov-12Ask a Question About Oil Painting Restorer

5 Things To Know About Car Loans
Whether it's the car of your dreams or a great bargain you can't pass up, buying a car can be expensive and chances are you may not have the entire sum of cash resting idly in your savings account, meaning a loan will be required.

Dealing With Banks
If you have a good savings history, a solid credit record and long term employment then your bank is probably the first port of call for a car loan. They can offer either a secured loan against your car or an unsecured loan for smaller amounts.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) -- A North Carolina panel is tasked with answering a question that has not been answered before, and seems to not have one: How do you repay people for taking away their ability to have children?
The state's Eugenics Compensation Task Force is the first in the nation to tackle that question and is set on Tuesday to recommend how much to pay victims of forced sterilization, along with whether the victims' descendants are eligible for the money.
"If we all agree that there is no amount that restore somebody's loss of ability to procreate, then it's understood that the ultimate figure is an attempt to put out an active apology instead of a verbal apology," said task force member Demetrius Worley Berry, a Greensboro attorney. "This is not an attempt to compensate, repair or restore what happened years ago."
State officials sterilized more than 7,600 people in North Carolina from 1929 to 1974 under eugenics programs, which at the time were aimed at creating a better society by weeding out people such as criminals and mentally disabled people considered undesirable.
The panel has discussed amounts between $20,000 and $50,000 a person. At the panel's meeting last month, Berry suggested paying $20,000 to living victims, though chairwoman Laura Gerald said she wanted to consider a higher amount.
Victims reacted angrily, saying they deserved more money, and descendants argued the estates of victims who have since died also should be paid. Some have suggested as much as $1 million per victim.
"I think that what they're doing is unfair, and I think that they're looking at North Carolina in a cheap way," said Delores Marks, 60, of Durham. "And I think they're just trying to have something to present so that they'll go ahead and approve it and get it out of the way."
Her mother, Margaret Helen Cheek, was diagnosed with schizophrenia and sterilized in 1965 after having three children. Clay believes her mother, who died of a stroke in February 1978, suffered only from post-partum depression.
The Legislature would have to approve any compensation to victims, of which 1,500 to 2,000 the task force has said are believed to be alive. Officials have found 48 of them so far.
Even payments of $20,000 apiece for only 1,500 surviving victims would total $30 million, an amount that could be tough to come up with in a state that has had to trim millions from its budget in recent years. If victims and their descendants were to get $1 million per victim, as some have suggested, the payments could total billions of dollars.
Many states ended their eugenics programs because of associations with Nazi Germany's program aimed at racial purity, but North Carolina in fact ramped up sterilizations after World War II. The state's sterilizations peaked in the 1950s, with about 70 percent of all sterilizations performed after the war, according to state records. The program didn't officially end until 1977. It is one of about a half-dozen states to apologize for eugenics programs.
Most victims were poor, black women deemed unfit to be parents. People as young as 10 were sterilized for reasons as minor as not getting along with schoolmates or being promiscuous. Although officials obtained consent from patients or their guardians, many did not comprehend what they were signing.
There are more than 60,000 victims of forced sterilization in the U.S., and though several states have apologized for such programs, North Carolina would be the first to compensate victims.
The state could supplement any compensation with a lifetime break from paying state income taxes, said Daren Bakst, director of legal and regulatory studies at the John Locke Foundation, a conservative-leaning think tank.
He supports the $20,000 figure, noting that it's the same compensation paid to living victims of Japanese internment camps. He also said compensation should be paid only to living victims, not descendants.
"Where do you draw the line?" he said. "Just as a logistical matter for the state, it would be impossible to figure out which descendants should be compensated and which shouldn't."
Still, Bakst said compensation amounts to more than a mere apology.
"An apology is words," he said. "Giving money and benefits is going beyond the apology and taking real action and showing North Carolina can learn the lesson of its unfortunate history when it comes to this issue."
Victims will propose their own recommendations Tuesday, said Marks, who suggested $1 million and said victims shouldn't accept less than $250,000.
Berry, one of the board members, acknowledged "most of the victims feel that $20,000 or $50,000 is a slap in the face." But he said he is basing that amount on what would realistically be approved by the Legislature.
Elaine Riddick, who was 14 when the state eugenics board ordered her sterilization, has railed against the compensation amounts proposed so far and called the task force "a new face of the eugenics board." Riddick had given birth after being raped.
She sued the state in the 1970s, seeking $1 million, and said that figure should increase with time.
"They took away my right to be a complete woman," she said. "What do you think it is worth?"
