Special Features
- Closed Captioned
Actor/auteur Tom Laughlin created the character of Billy Jack in the motorcycle flick The Born Losers. Wandering Christlike through the Southwest, Native American Vietnam veteran Billy Jack -- soft-spoken, but well-versed in martial arts -- champions the cause of a progressive school run by Jean Roberts (Delores Taylor, Laughlin's real-life wife). The bigoted white townsfolk don't cotton to Jean's minority-group students, so they do everything they can to humiliate and physically abuse the kids. When one of her charges is cruelly coated with white flour, Billy Jack goes berserk. Thus begins an orgy of self-righteous violence, culminating with our hero being hunted down on a murder charge. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Gomez named Gold Glove Award finalist
Carlos Gomez is one of three National League center fielders who are finalists for a Rawlings Gold Glove Award, the Brewers' best chance to snap a 31-year defensive drought.
The Pirates' Andrew McCutchen and Nationals' Denard Span are the other finalists for the award, which will be announced on Tuesday at 7 p.m. CT on ESPN2.
Carlos Gomez is one of three National League center fielders who are finalists for a Rawlings Gold Glove Award, the Brewers' best chance to snap a 31-year defensive drought.
The Pirates' Andrew McCutchen and Nationals' Denard Span are the other finalists for the award, which will be announced on Tuesday at 7 p.m. CT on ESPN2.
Milwaukee's last Gold Glove Award winner was Robin Yount in 1982, when Yount was a shortstop and the Brewers were in the American League. The Brewers have won only nine Gold Glove Awards in their history, including first baseman George Scott's five straight from 1972-76. The only Brewers outfielder to win was Sixto Lezcano in 1979.
Gomez has as good a shot as any Brewers player since then. According to FanGraphs.com, he led all outfielders with 38 defensive runs saved (DRS) in 2013, trailing only Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons (41) among all Major League players. The next-highest center fielder was Arizona's A.J. Pollock with 15 runs saved. McCutchen's DRS was seven, and Span's was three.
Gomez also fared well in Ultimate Zone Rating, which attempts to measure a fielder's success in converting balls in his zone into outs. Gomez led the Majors at center field with a 24.4 UZR, with Pollock again second (17.4), and Span (10.2) and McCutchen (6.9) trailing.
For the non-sabermetricians, Gomez also excelled. He was credited by Baseball Info Solutions with five home run-robbing catches, the most since that organization began charting. Two of the robberies came at the Cincinnati Reds' expense and negated a potential go-ahead homer with two outs in the ninth inning -- against Joey Votto on July 8 and Jay Bruce on Sept. 15. There was some question in the Brewers' own clubhouse about whether the Bruce blast would have cleared the fence, but in Votto's case, there was no doubt.
"I was spoiled early on and had Torii Hunter back there in his prime," said July 8th's Brewers starter, right-hander Kyle Lohse, a former Twins teammate of Hunter in the years before Gomez got to Minnesota. "[Gomez] is right there with the early Minnesota days of Torii jumping off the 'baggie' and bringing stuff back all the time. Carlos is so athletic and explosive."
Gomez also took away home runs from the Rockies' Carlos Gonzalez, the Phillies' John Mayberry Jr. and the Mets' Marlon Byrd.
"That's pretty good," Gomez said. "It's not only five home runs, too, it's the situation that I save that run. That means a lot to us, and the pitcher has more confidence in us because they know they have the best over there."
Incidentally, Gomez also had his best offensive season, batting .284 with 24 home runs, 73 RBIs and 40 stolen bases. He was the first player in Brewers history with at least 20 home runs and 40 steals.
When Gomez was informed of the Brewers' Gold Glove Award drought, he said, "Maybe this is the year."
The voting was slightly altered this year. Since its inception in 1957, the Rawlings Gold Glove has relied solely on Major League managers' and coaches' votes to determine the best defensive players. Managers and coaches got an assist this year from the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR). For the first time, Rawlings collaborated with SABR to formally incorporate sabermetrics as a component of the Gold Glove Award.
A committee of experts in baseball analytics and defensive measurement devised the SABR Defensive Index (SDI), which draws on and aggregates two types of existing defensive metrics: those derived from batted ball, location-based data and those collected from play-by-play accounts.
The three metrics representing batted ball data include defensive runs saved (from Baseball Info Solutions), Ultimate Zone Rating (developed by sabermetician Mitchel Lichtman), and runs effectively defended (created by SABR's Chris Dial).
The two metrics included in the SDI from play-by-play data are defensive regression analysis, created by committee member Michael Humphreys, and total zone rating.
The plan, according to Rawlings and SABR, is to have the SDI complement the judgement by the managers and coaches. The SABR Defensive Index will account for 30 total votes -- or approximately 25 percent -- of the Rawlings Gold Glove Award selection process, and will be added to the votes from the managers and coaches.
Ballots were distributed to managers and coaches in September, and they received a revamped statistical resource guide as well.

Gator Mulcher Blade
for Wright Stander - Gator mulcher Blade For the Wright Stander Lawn Mower are one of the highest-quality,
best-performing, and longest-lasting mulching blades on the market today. The
high air lift of each blade pulls the grass up to be cut. Then the angled teeth
redirect the clippings back toward the cutting edge over and over again. The
resulting finer grass clippings increase bagging capacity and promote
faster decomposition for a healthier lawn. Gator Mulcher Blades For Wright Stander Lawn Mower come in 3 different types
G3 Gator Blades:The G3 is the standard gator
mulcher blade. It gives you the ability to mow faster at higher speeds than
traditional mulching blades.
G5 Gator Blades:G5 blades have higher air
lift and a longer cutting edge than the G3. This promotes even better mulching
performance. Plus with Fusion technology, your blade stays sharp 40% longer
than traditional blades.
G6 Gator Blades:G6 blades are considered the
heavy-duty gator blades. The increase in thickness and width extends the life
of the blade. Combine longevity, sharpness, and an extended cutting edge, you
have the ultimate mulching blade.

That's a wrap.
Sadly, due to other commitments, the organizers of Boxer Falls have decided to end the series after a very successful run.
We so appreciate and love our fans and want to remind everyone that the first season is available for download.
Again, our sincerest thanks goes to everyone who followed the series, to the authors who put forward their installments, to everyone who helped behind the scenes, and to the M/M Romance Group at Goodreads for all their support.
Soap up & get down!
Boxer Falls was a weekly homoerotic soap opera posted at the M/M Romance Group at Goodreads. Penned by a group of fan favorites and new voices, a roster of unparalleled talent brings this "gaytime drama" to life with high camp, low blows, and intense sexiness.
Our writers produced episodes as interconnected short stories about the ongoing adventures of the residents of a tightknit Berkshires resort town with a queer reputation as it gains a reputation as a homo hot spot for the discerning traveler. You should expect sex, scandal, secrets, and happy endings that come at a high price.
Every week a new guest star took up the pen. Join Ellis Carrington, Poppy Dennison, and Damon Suede along with a host of your favorite gay romance scribes as they cut loose with suds and studs in abundance. And once Brita Addams joined the team, Boxer Falls churned like never before.
Rag time!
Love dirty laundry? Who doesn't? Because no small town is complete without its local rag, Boxer Falls is now home to the Boxer Brief with a heaping helping of crime, classifieds, and local gossip from the infamous and incorrigible Amanda Reckonwith...not to mention sneak peeks of what's ahead from the folks in the know.
Tongues are wagging and there are butts to be scuttled! Don't be caught by surprise! Subscribe to our virtual back-fence today and get your copy of the Boxer Brief delivered right to your inbox. Brita and Poppy are working overtime to make it sizzle.
Don't be shy
We want to hear from you. Soap operas thrive on input from fans and our writers are no different.
If you have comments, praise, insults, or admonitions, don't hesitate to drop us a line, either in the ongoing Boxer Falls discussion threads at Goodreads, on Twitter or via our contact form on this site. And if you're an author interested in getting sudsy with us, that goes double!
Please feel free to let us know what's working and what ain't, the characters you love and loathe, and the burning questions or burning sensations that keep you glued to your various screens.

The show airs live on ABC, Sunday, Feb. 24, 2013
Seth MacFarlane will host "The 85th Annual Academy Awards®," telecast producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron announced Monday. This will be MacFarlane's first appearance on Oscar's stage. The 85th Annual Academy Awards will be broadcast live on Oscar Sunday, Feb. 24, 2013, on ABC.
"We are thrilled to have Seth MacFarlane host the Oscars. His performing skills blend perfectly with our ideas for making the show entertaining and fresh," said Zadan and Meron. "He will be the consummate host, and we are so happy to be working with him."
"It's truly an overwhelming privilege to be asked to host the Oscars," MacFarlane said. "My thoughts upon hearing the news were, 'One, I will do my utmost to live up to the high standards set forth by my predecessors; and two, I hope they don't find out I hosted the Charlie Sheen roast."
"Seth is unbelievably talented," said Academy President Hawk Koch. "We couldn't be happier with the creative team we've assembled. With Craig, Neil and now Seth, we're off to a great start."
MacFarlane made his feature directorial debut this summer with the box office success "Ted." He also co-wrote and produced the film, and voiced the title character. "Ted" has brought in more than $420 million worldwide, making it one of the highest-grossing films of the year.
MacFarlane is the creative force behind the television series "Family Guy" and co-creator of "American Dad!" and "The Cleveland Show." In September, he hosted "Saturday Night Live" for the first time, for the show's 38th season premiere. An accomplished live performer, he has played to sold-out audiences at London's Royal Albert Hall and New York's Carnegie Hall. In 2011 MacFarlane released his debut album, "Music Is Better than Words," which earned two Grammy nominations. He also has earned 13 Emmy®nominations and won two for his work on "Family Guy."
Academy Awards for outstanding film achievements of 2012 will be presented on Sunday, Feb. 24, 2013, at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center. Don Mischer will direct the telecast for the third consecutive time. The Oscar presentation also will be televised live in more than 225 countries worldwide.

About Telnet Sessions
Telnet sessions usually close after a given period of time. However, if you do not exit some commands completely, the Telnet session may remain up indefinitely.
Certain commands use cursor positioning when running in continuous-display refresh mode. The most common of these commands (with their display refresh options) are:
- spanstat -all
- spanstat -a
- tvportstat -all
Unfortunately, these cursor-positioning commands do not always work with some ssh clients. If the command does not work with your ssh client, use the following instead:
- spanstat instead of spanstat -all
- spanstat instead of spanstat-a
- tvportstat low_port_number high_port_number instead of tvportstat -all

At one of the longest town meetings in recent memory, about 250 Middlebury residents spent 4 hours and 20 minutes deliberating a number of issues, starting with the proposed budget, which took the better part of two hours. It passed on a voice vote, with numerous questions from the audience but no final opposition.
But the hot issue of the evening was an article calling for a penny on the tax rate over the next five years to fund the Middlebury Business Development Fund. After a 10 minute presentation by Better Middlebury Partnership President Donna Donahue, more than 15 people stood up to comment with about an equal number opposing and supporting the issue. Applause after particular comments was the only gauge of support on the measure and that was split fairly equally on both sides of the issue.
The discussion went back and forth for an hour with Gov. Jim Douglas moderating, and selectman John Tenny taking the floor at one point to correct some comments and explain his support for the measure.
After about an hour of discussion, a motion was called to cease discussion and take a vote; which passed, then the question was called. The voice vote appeared to be in favor of the amendment to approve the fund, but it was close, so Douglas suggested a count by standing up. But a quick request from the floor called for a vote by ballot, and that was easily approved.
When the votes were counted, Douglas announced that the article passed by roughly a 2-1 margin; the funding in the following article passed as well. We'll have the full report later Tuesday morning with vote totals and more of the details; along with discussion on the fire department bond project. It's almost 1 a.m. and time to get to bed.

To start, we need to separate the concept of data and information. While in the everyday usage these two merge, in the world of databases these are two very separate things. Data is the representation of facts/concepts of stuff that is adequate for human or automatic (by a machine) processing. The information is the meaning that we allocate to the data. For example, a ten percent salary decrease is a piece of data. For the employee, this is a bad thing (information), while for the boss it can be a good thing (also information).
The significance of a given piece of data depends on the current user. Therefore, we can work up and organize a structure for the data. You should leave the determination of the information out of the database, because this it is not always possible at this level. The application that uses the database should handle this (like the Windows/Mac/Linux application or the website).
A database management system is software that organizes and keeps your data together. This should work fast if you have an enormous quantity of data. There are two products from which you can choose currently on the market. There is the free version, MySQL; and the professional and expensive one, available from Oracle.
Actually, in 2009 Oracle bought MySQL, which has therefore become a slimmer version of Oracle's database. You can achieve most of the same tasks in both interfaces. However, you will have to work a lot harder (in the sense of extra code to write) if you take the MySQL path. MySQL is currently up to the fifth main version.
My advice is to travel the Oracle path if you do it for a large company and can afford the extra cash. Otherwise, go for MySQL if you do it for your personal use or the $200+ price tag creates an impediment.
{mospagebreak title=Data Model}
Once you have the database management software (DBMS) up and running on your computer, your next step is to plan the database. The data model is a general theoretical structure of the database, and it is independent from the DBMS in which you implement it. To present how to construct this is the main objective of this article. The data model consists of a marking system that describes the data and an operation set that we use to organize the data.
We use the entity-relationship (ERM) data model to construct a conceptual structure for our database. The building blocks of the ERM are entity, attributes and relations. An entity is anything that can exist on its own and that we can differentiate an instance of it from another. For example, in planning the database of a company, entities are the employees, managers, branch shops (if they exist) and so forth.
While an entity may have multiple traits, one of its traits (or a combination of them) should identify uniquely any instance of the entity. To go back to the database of the company, this is the personal identification number of the employee. This is the key of the entity. In a company spread around the world, this could also be the employee's country of residence and passport number.
By no means should this include only a single trait. Furthermore, if a few traits of the entity cannot identify it uniquely, we can create an internal ID number that we assign to it upon entering it into the database. For example, there is the account or membership number you receive from the gym, which is generated when you sign up. It can even be text, as in the case of your e-mail address. You can create whatever you want. The idea is to immediately and uniquely identify an instance of the entity.
In the ERM, an entity is a rectangle with the name of the entity in the middle:
The attributes of an entity (traits of the instance) we model with an ellipse with the name of it inside it. We link this with a line to the entity to which it corresponds, and if it is a key, you underline the attribute word. For example:
The final piece is the relationship. We use this to link together two or more entities. The object used is a diamond in the middle containing the name of the connection, and two lines from and to the rhombus to connect it with the entity. A relationship can be, for example, between the shop and the employee. The employee works in the shop.
The relationship itself can have traits if it symbolizes the work, and may differ depending on to whom it is connected. A good example for this is the connection between the supplier and the shop. The price at which the supplier sells depends on the relationship, as next time he may charge extra or make a better offer to the shop. In this case the relationship will have a price attribute, and for this we use the same ellipsoid notation paired with the line connection to the diamond.
A full ERM diagram will look like this:
– Image Courtesy of Wikipedia –
{mospagebreak title=Relationship Types}
We can structure relationships into three categories. A one to one connection is between entity one (E1) and entity two (E2) if E1 can have a relationship with at most one entity from the set of E2. This type of relationship is rare. This is the case in a database where we represent separately husbands and wives in a separate entity. In a monogamist society, a man can have at most one wife (nevertheless, it is possible that he has none).
The second type is the "one to many" relationship. In this case, you can associate E1 to zero or more entities from E2. However, going the other way, an entity from E2 may correspond to only a single E1 entity or none. For example, a company may have multiple branches, and a single branch may have multiple employees. Nevertheless, an employee may work in only one branch of our company at a time (please exclude the special cases of someone going to work in our branch in New York from Monday to Wednesday and in Washington on the other days).
The final relationship type is "many to many." This relationship type is troublesome and needs to be eliminated in the planning phase. For instance, an artist may sing one or more songs, and more than one artist may sing a song. In the ERM, to visualize this we put an arrow on all the relationship's connecting lines on the side where we connect to "one" entity. This means on both ends for the one to one relationship and on the one side of the "one to many" relationship.
Here I should introduce the "is a" relationship. Some entities may have multiple purposes at the same time, and one of them is in fact just a specialization of another one. For example, the manager of a shop is also an employee. In this case, the manager will keep all the traits of an employee; the key of the employee will also be his key, and it may have additional attributes. In an ERM diagram, this looks like the screen below (imagine the attributes are there also):
{mospagebreak title=Relational Model}
As good as the ERM diagram may be at visualizing our plan, for optimization reasons we need to transform it into another model: the relational model. This is the form in which we will find it in the database: the tables.
For this representation there are a couple of rules. Two arbitrary rows cannot be the same. The set of combined attributes that forms the key cannot repeat itself in more than one instance (so the key is indeed unique). The attributes forming the key may be primary or foreign key (identifying a relationship, not the entity itself). A primary key attribute cannot be null or empty.
The order of the instances of the entity (the relation) in the table does not matter. Two attributes within the same entity cannot have the same name. These few constraints will allow us to create a database that we can manage with ease. The collection of relations (tables) will form the relational database.
How do we transform the ERM to the relational model? Here are the steps to follow. First, write down the entities, and list after them their attributes. We underline the keys. Second, write up the relationship names. For those in the parentheses, we will get the attributes that belong to that relationship. Furthermore, both key sets from the connecting entities will get in.
What will be the new primary keys for these relations? It depends on the relationship type. If it is "one on one," either one of the E1 or E2 sets can be the key set for this. If it is "one to many" then the key set at the many side will be the key. And finally, when you have an "many to many" relationship, the new key will be a composed key, and both key sets from E1 and E2 will form the new key set.
In the case of an "is a" connection, the specialization will have the key of the general entity, and will have its attributes as well. The third and final step in the transformation is to determine the foreign keys. If two relationships at this stage have the same key, we unify those two relationships and substitute a single relationship. The relationships that have a composed key (multiple attributes as keys) cannot be unified.
Before we create the database, first we need to further improve it by bringing it to the third normal form. I will leave this to my next article, where, besides the normalization of the databases, I will teach you how to visualize your plan in MySQL Workbench.
Additionally, we will write and generate the database creation code. I will use the MySQL syntax, however the Oracle one is pretty similar. If you understand the concept, with just a few modifications it should work for Oracle too. Therefore, by the end of that article we should have a fully operational and well-planned database.

Knaus Admits Telling Johnson to Damage Car
Chad Knaus told driver Jimmie Johnson to intentionally damage the back end of his race car if the No. 48 team won Sunday's race at Talladega Superspeedway, the crew chief acknowledged Wednesday.
Knaus admitted giving the five-time NASCAR champion the pre-race instructions in order to "cover our bases" in case 500 miles of bump-drafting knocked the car beyond NASCAR's strict tolerances. Officials likely would have accepted the damage as an excuse if the No. 48 car had not fit NASCAR's templates in post-race inspection.
The conversation between Knaus and Johnson occurred when the crew chief leaned inside the No. 48 car before the race to give Johnson some final words of encouragement. Because Johnson's in-car camera was live on NASCAR.com's RaceBuddy application, the chat was broadcast to anyone watching the feed at the time.
The orders were recorded by a fan (who preferred to remain anonymous for fear of backlash from Johnson supporters) and obtained by SBNation.com.
"If we win this race, you have to crack the back of the car," Knaus could be heard telling Johnson on the recording. "Got it?"
"Really?" Johnson replied, sounding surprised.
"Yes," Knaus said. "Got it? You don't have to have to hit it hard, you don't have to destroy it. But you've gotta do a donut and you've gotta hit the back end, or somebody's gotta hit you in the ass-end or something. OK?"
After Johnson responds with apparent silence (he can't be heard saying anything else), Knaus added, "You'll be alright. Can't take any chances."
When asked Wednesday whether the conversation indicated Knaus was trying something fishy on the back of the car, the crew chief replied, "I don't think that's a fair assessment."
"To be honest with you, here's the deal – racing at Talladega is tough, and I think everybody understands that," Knaus said in a phone interview. "You run 500 miles at 200 miles per hour, and you're bump-drafting and you're beating on one another, and it's real easy for these cars to get outside of tolerance.
"It's a tight tolerance that we're held in. It doesn't take much to be a few thousands (of an inch) off and have NASCAR raise an eyebrow. Just being proactive, I just told Jimmie, 'Look, man – we've just got to make sure there's a tire mark or some type of visible damage.' Just because cars do move when you race them like that."
NASCAR allows a small tolerance beyond the exact measurements specified in the rulebook, and race teams try to use as much as possible without crossing the line.
Officials have warned teams who decide to live dangerously by pushing the limits, and Knaus said restrictor-plate races are stressful for crew chiefs because they can alter the cars more than planned.
"You don't really know how some of that stuff happens from time to time – especially at a place like Daytona or Talladega," he said. "... We all know how sensitive superspeedway racing is to everybody, and when you go into those races, you're nervous about everything.
"From a crew chief's standpoint, there's a lot of things that are said quickly and maybe out of anxiety that don't even mean much."
Knaus said the car was inspected three times prior to the Talladega race – the initial inspection at NASCAR's Research and Development Center, a pre-qualifying inspection and post-qualifying inspection – and passed each time.
In addition, he said it was the same car Johnson used in the spring Talladega race. Johnson won that event, so the car (which was undamaged) was taken back to the NASCAR R&D Center for an extra look.
NASCAR rules are stricter than ever, with severe penalties handed out to those who go too far outside the box – as Michael Waltrip Racing found out on Tuesday after bringing illegal windshields to Talladega.
Knaus has been on the wrong side of the NASCAR law in the past, too. But he said his comments to Johnson were out of concern that a legal car would be bump-drafted beyond the tolerances.
"It's a tight championship Chase," Knaus said. "Everybody's trying to get into it, everybody's trying to do the best they can for their team and their organization. And to try to cover a base, I just threw that out there. We didn't need it anyway, so it doesn't really much matter."

TFCC Surgery Recovery
Report this Post
(0 ratings)
Can't Post
Hello Everyone,
In July '11, I hurt my TFCC lifting weights. For 8 months I tried conservative treatment: no weight lifting/climbing, splints, Anti-Inflammatories, and Cortisone injections. And I didn't improve.
Finally in March '12, I had surgery performed by a top hand specialist. He found no complete tear. But he found a partial tear on the peripheral TFCC which he debrided.
Now 4 months later, I have full range of motion and can do my average daily living activities. Just like before the surgery. And I'm also doing rehab.
But right now, I can't lift anything heavy or climb. And I am in more pain now than before the surgery.
Has anyone had TFCC debridement?
How long did it take to feel better?
How long did it take to fully recover 100%?
Did your TFCC pain get worse after surgery, and then get better?
I was wondering whether anyone can provide me with some feedback. It's been a tough time.

Hey Josie,
I hurt mine in Feb 11(peripheral),cortizone shot mid march then TFCC debridement in the beginning of May.I was climbing by the end of June although it took months to get the strength back in my hand and arm(lost ALOT of muscle).
Here it is July 12 and It still bothers me but I can do enough to keep me happy.I know I will never be able to push it too much.I'm not sure how much you researched but my understanding is you will never be 100%.The tear will always be there.I feel bad for anyone who has this injury as it never fully heals.Try to find the positives of what you can do.
I find mine feels good some days and not so good others.
Good Luck!

Hi b1a2,
Good to hear from you. I'm glad you are climbing and doing better. Ok, so you had surgery in May '11 and by the end of June '11 you were climbing again? How long did it take for you to start feeling any benefit from the surgery?
My Hand Therapist and Doctor aren't sure why my pain isn't decreasing. However they've seen cases where it has taken months to start feeling better.
I did some research, yeah my wrist will never be the way it was before the injury. However, I'm hoping to substantially reduce or eliminate the pain, and be able to do physical activity.

Hey Josie,
I was climbing again about a month and a half after the surgery but I'm talking slabs and moderate face climbs,no cracks.
Mine was so bad at first that I could not hold a spoon,open the door ,start my car,ect..
Cortizone shot helped within two weeks for me to start using my hand again and getting a little range of motion back.That is when I started to get the snapping and clicking sounds that I had read about.
When I decided on the surgery,my doc told me to expect about a 65 % success rate.No guarantee(oh great).
Anyway,to answer your question,I felt the benefit of the surgery within the first couple of weeks.PT(4 or 5 weeks) helped to get my range of motion to within one degree of my left hand and regain some strength back.
Mine does still hurt alot of days but it sounds like yours is alot worse.
I hope you improve as time goes on.

Thanks for the support b1a2. I hope things eventually work out for me.
I'm glad to hear debridement improved your condition, and that you are climbing.

Hi Josie,
I had TFCC debridement surgery in October 08 after injuring mine in January 08 (apparently when my wrist underwent a violent subluxation during climbing). Like you, I went through a long and exhaustive (and fruitless) conservative treatment phase, including rest, immobilization, physical therapy, and 3 sports med hand doc consultations.
My tear was central. Similarly to the other poster, I could do almost nothing with that hand/arm. I could not lift a plate of food, turn a key in a lock, I could not bear weight on my palm, etc. Consequently, my arm atrophied a lot during that year of no climbing (and almost no living!). It was hell!
I was under the impression peripheral tears were not debrided but rather repaired. Yours was not? I am confused by this.
I did my first climbing (easy face climbing) about 2-2 1/2 months after the surgery. I started climbing intermittently for a few months after that, mostly due to shitty winter weather. I also started hand therapy around that time.
I started really getting back into climbing shape about 6 months after the surgery (due to spring/summer arrival). It took a looong time to get back into shape, but I put up my hardest trad lead ever about 8 months after surgery (5.9). Within 2-3 months of that, I was leading into the 5.10 crack climbing realm. I never thought that would be possible after what I went through.
I would say about 10-12 months post-op, I felt like the surgery never happened. And I was totally pain-free.
I wouldn't say I had
pain after the recovery process 4 months in, but I had pain in a different area that persisted for at least 6 months: pain around the radius which I couldn't understand. Finally, my hand therapist talked to some random hand surgeon who mentioned that patients who undergo synovectomies during wrist surgery (which I did) can have a lot of resulting pain from that which takes some time to heal. This is because they essentially cut away the inflamed synovium and the healing process is time-consuming. Did you have a synovectomy which could be contributing to your pain?
You also have all my best wishes. This was an injury which altered my life significantly for a very long time and one of the worst years of my recent life. I hope you eventually have a full recovery and result like I did.

Hey Aerili,
It seems that yours and b1a2s injuries were worse than mine.
I could hold a plate and spoon, and open doors, but my TFCC would feel more strain. Opening tight jars, lifting something heavy, starting my car, and turning a key into a tight lock all hurt too much. And I avoided using my right hand for this. As far as weight bearing on my palm, I could do 3-4 push-ups before I had to stop because of increased pain. Before the injury I could do 40.
What signaled it was time for surgery was the constant pain--even at complete rest--and no improvement after 8 months. So much so that I would ice it daily and take ibuprofen.
As for surgery, the doctor found a partial peripheral tear, which he debrided. He said I didnt have a complete peripheral tear which required repair (ie: suturing). He also discovered fraying of the ECU sheath, which he debrided. He found some synovitis and performed a synovectomy. Afterwards he said I will get better, based upon what he saw. And that there was nothing in there to prevent me from doing normal things once I recover. This coming from a renowned hand surgeon.
Now my Doctor is unsure why Im still having pain. My hand therapist thinks its weird. She was a bit stunned when I told her its worse than before. I only have pain on the ulnar side of the TFCC. I dont have pain in any other parts of the wrist. Only some post operative stretching pain when I flex my wrist.
Aerili, do you still have clicking and grinding in your wrist? I do, and once in awhile its painful.
They advised to continue strengthening/rehab in the hopes it will help it heal. As it stands now I cant even climb a ladder. On the bright side, my wrist isnt getting worse. I will be patient and continue as advised in the hopes of things getting better. If not, I will see my doctor again.

I do not have clicking and grinding in my wrist, although I eventually did re-injure it in Dec 2010. I climbed a sport route I knew I shouldn't have (I just avoid certain [all?] kinds of hard climbing because the potential for injury is too high for me, but this day I did not heed my inner voice). I took 3 months off then and it got better with rest alone, but I was really worried!
Although it does bother me now and again ever since that re-injury, I do not have actual clicking and grinding. Also, taking fish oil supplements has greatly helped any residual pain from the re-injury.
Maybe your pain is due to the ECU debridement and the synovectomy? I would assume the ECU sheath has a blood supply and thus both of those procedures now require healing, which is a long and painful process. I must admit, the synovectomy caused a significant amount of pain for me and took a very long time to completely regenerate. Whenever I would climb or lift weights for up to 6-8 months later, it hurt and I would freak out. My hand therapist reassured me it would eventually heal and what I was doing wasn't making anything worse. In my case, she was definitely correct.
You might consider a second opinion if your wrist continues to be problematic.

No clicking or grinding in my wrist either Josie.I get pain in mine a couple of times a week but I am a flooring contractor and I think that is the reason I have this problem in the first place.I stacked some firewood the other day and paid for it that night.
I would be a little concerned if I could not climb a ladder at this point in your recovery.I hope you get better on your own.I know how frustrating this injury can be.

Hi Josie
For what it's worth, another experience.
I mantled myself a TFCC tear in late spring 2010. It was diagnosed in early fall as a TFCC. Had a cortisone shot that hurt something awful (cortisone flare) and didn't help at all, and had surgery in Nov 2010. The doctor, a hand specialist who had done a lot of these, could not repair the central tear, but did debride it.
I was in a dressing for several weeks and then in physical therapy for months. Started climbing again in Feb 2011 or so (when the physical therapist & doctor said I could) very slowly, very easy stuff. Was probably back at my old skill level maybe 5-6 months later.
I still tape, and plan to forever. I get twinges of pain when I lift heavy things with that wrist untaped. I mantle off my closed fist instead of open palm, if I must mantle, but generally I try to find another way up. My initial pain was not as bad as other folks' here (I could climb--it just hurt), but it was not a fast recovery. This said, I also moved cross-country halfway through and the hand specialist on my new coast, recommended by the old one, told me that he probably would not have done the surgery--would have just kept me off it for the same amount of time and done a lot of PT, so who knows.
Hope this helps. Ask your dr. and your PT lots of questions--they won't know all the answers, but at least you can figure out what can be known.
Good luck!

Adding a data point -- I tore my TFCC in 1998 or so, fell backwards while rollerblading. I went through the months of trying nonivasive stuff, then ended up in surgeon's offices after 6 mos. I stuck with the older more traditional guy, who was also a big skiier, instead of the younger guy with cooler new tools. I'm glad I did.
Reading these posts, I'm not sure exactly what my pathology was in terms of tear specifics, but -- the surgeon did a complete repair, drilling a hole up diagonally through my ulna and tying the TFCC in through that. He put a screw in across the radius & ulna to make SURE there was no joint motion while I recovered (screw came out later, of course). Two months in an elbow cast was ugh, but it recovered beautifully and is completely bombproof (and pain free) now.
Best of luck to you all.

In 1891, Webster C.

The Ball Engineer II Genesis watch boasts an impressive 40mm stainless steel case that embraces the automatic calibre BALL RR1102 movement that promises a shock resistance of 5,000Gs and a water resistance of 100 metres. Housed beneath the scratch resistant sapphire crystal glass is a striking black dial set with a total of 28 micro gas tubes on the hour, minute and second hands as well as the 6, 9 and 12 markers. These markers are made of 1mm thick green micro gas tubes that will glow in the dark for up to 25 years without requiring any recharge. When you turn the watch over, the case back is decorated with an engraving of a train to celebrate the monumental legacy and anniversary of the brand.

Rollerdome: Inline Skating at the Metrodome

In this post we're looking back at March in our over 100 stores all across the country, where our teams were busy putting on clinics, supporting rides and helping out in their local cycling communities. If you want more info about your local Performance Bicycle, check your local store page for regularly scheduled Spin Doctor clinics & group rides.
First up is our Tucson Speedway, AZ store, who provided tech support for their local American Diabetes Association Tour de Cure ride last month.
Our team was excited to be out on the course on a crisp Arizona spring day, supporting the riders as they raised money for the fight against diabetes.
Here's a shot of our Spin Doctor team ready for action underneath our tent – they stayed busy all day doing quick tune-ups, helping with flats and otherwise making sure any rider who came by was ready for their ride.
Our La Mesa, CA store was lucky enough to be involved with a different type of awareness ride last month, as well, when they helped out at the send-off celebration for Tom Skinner and his son Parry (plus Tom's service dog, Scrubs). Tom and Parry are riding across America, California to Vermont, to raise awareness for PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).
You can read more about Tom and his journey to understand PTSD on his blog (and track his progress), but Tom's plan is to make stops along the way of his 117 day journey to raise awareness of PTSD by sharing his presentation, "What Comes after Welcome Home" at colleges, universities, churches and veterans' organizations. Sean, the manager of our La Mesa store, lead the effort to get Tom and Parry plenty of cycling clothing, gear and accessories for their big ride.
The La Mesa kickoff itself was a fun event, as the mayor of La Mesa, along with the help of many other community members, helped send Tom and Parry off in style. We helped out by giving free safety inspections for folks who showed up to ride thanks to James, the manager of our Kearney Mesa store. Please join us in wishing Tom, Parry and Scrubs the best of luck on their journey, and their mission to raise awareness of PTSD.
The team from our Columbia, MD store got some TV time with a reporter from WBAL-TV and Jillian Beam from Team Challenge, the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation's endurance training and fundraising program. Performance Bicycle is an official sponsor of Team Challenge in the Mid-Atlantic region, so they dropped by our store to tape a segment for WBAL-TV's morning program – the reporter got in the spirit by wearing one of our Ultra jerseys for the broadcast!
Our Boise, ID store hosted a local club called Community Bicycle Rides for a "season kick-off" at our store. Over 100 cyclists dropped by to reconnect after the winter and get ready for the 2012 ride season.
The purpose of this club is to help those who are getting into the sport of cycling – as club members grow in their skills, they start more rigorous training for various charity cycling events. The club started in 2005 with a handful of members and has grown to over 400 strong! Most of the riders are at the enthusiast level and love to get together to share time on the road and in the foothills.
Tod, our Operations Manager, Matt Causey, our Sales Manager, and Matt Renspurger, our Store Manager, enjoyed chatting with their guests about the services we provide in our shop and about cycling in general. But the highlight of the evening was the refreshment area for our guests to try some of the nutrition products – Honey Stinger Waffles were a particular favorite. There was even a raffle for 2 new Ultra Jerseys to finish off the evening's fun!
Greg, Javier and Roger from our Bonita, CA store participated in the ribbon cutting ceremony for a new section of the Bayshore Bikeway in Bonita. About 150 fellow cyclists showed up for the ceremony, and our team set up a tent and handed out trail maps and flyers for our Grow up with Performance growth guarantee.
Our guys had fun welcoming folks and making new friends, and even put a few bikes in the repair stands to make some quick adjustments before riders hit the new bike path.
Our Roswell, GA team recently helped out with one of the starting points for the Georgia Rides to the Capitol event, a cycling advocacy event that demonstrated the widespread support in Georgia for better bicycling conditions and opportunities. Our team helped out with free adjustments for riders before the start of the main ride, and then accompanied the pack towards the capitol.
About 300 people started from where we were set up, but by the time they reached downtown Atlanta there were well over 1,000 participants, including cyclists from all over the Metro Atlanta area and even as far away as Athens and Augusta. Our guys were proud to be involved with such a meaningful ride.
Speaking of checking over bikes before their ride, here's a pic of Joe from our San Antonio, TX store making some last minute adjustments to a bike before the LBJ 100 Bicycle Ride in San Antonio. A team from our store helped support this ride through the Texas Hill Country, that starts and ends on the famous LBJ ranch.
Staying in Texas, our North Austin, TX store provided tech support for the Spokes 'n Spurs ride, a Hill Country bike ride benefiting Spirit Reins, a non-profit whose mission is to improve the emotional and behavioral health of children with the help of horses.
Above are 2 members of the team from our Redmond, WA at a fitness fair put on by Universal Avionics. Our guys were a big hit, since many of their employees commute to work daily, made easier by a room with multiple bike racks dedicated to holding employees bikes while at work! We were surprised to learn Universal Avionic employees made up for 33% of the Tour de Redmond bicycle commute challenge participants last year.
Mark and Will from our Berkeley, CA store recently helped out with a local Bike-a-Thon event sponsored by a school in Berkeley. Mark lead a safety clinic for the kids and their parents and also coordinated a ride around the neighborhood.
Will checked over and made adjustments to many bikes, both for the kids and their parents. Everyone had a great time and our team looks forward to seeing these families out on the road or in our shop.
Our Orland Park, IL store hosted a safety and basic bike skills clinic for a local Cub Scout pack. As you can see, Spin Doctor candidate Nico did a great job teaching the primarily first and second graders (6-8 years old) basic bike safety, rules of the road, how to air up tires and adjust seat height, and how to clean and lube their chains – it's always fun when you have motivated students!
Sam from our San Antonio, TX store also had a great time teaching a Cub Scout pack last month. Working with younger riders was a new experience for Sam, so he had to tweak his normal safety instructions to connect well for the 8-10 year old riders. They talked about bicycle safety and basic bicycle maneuvering, and even rode through an impromptu bicycle obstacle course.
Now let's move on to clinics – this picture shows a special Garmin demo clinic at our Charlotte, NC store. Our local Garmin rep dropped by the store to show our guests just a few of the special features built into those handy Garmin bike GPS units.
Speaking of clinics, here's a slideshow from our latest Spin Doctor Trailside/Roadside Maintenance Clinic, featuring our Chandler, AZ, La Mesa, CA, Laguna Hills, CA, San Mateo, CA, Newark, DE, Roswell, GA, Paoli, PA, Pittsburgh, PA, Southlake, TX stores.

1020: Orion Nebula
|Orion Nebula
Title text: Also on the agenda: what's with his hips?
The Orion nebula is a diffuse nebula situated south of the three stars that compose Orion's Belt in the Orion constellation. In terms of the comic, it is the middle "star" in the sword/dong of Orion. Dong is an American slang word for penis. The star appears fuzzy to sharp-eyed observers, and the nebulosity is obvious through binoculars or a small telescope.
When the speaker says "We are no strangers to controversy" he is probably referring to Pluto's demotion from planet to a dwarf planet/plutoid. It could also be a reference to Rick Astley's song "Never gonna give you up", the original line is "We're no strangers to love".
The title text is a quip about how small and off-kilter the hips are in Orion the constellation compared to the rest of its body.
- [Cueball stands behind a lectern decorated with the indicators of the International Astronomical Union. There is a banner above him that also says 'International Astronomical Union,' decorated with small stars.]
- Cueball: Welcome to IAU Symposium #279.
- Cueball: We are no strangers to controversy, and we will not shy away from the tough issues. Which brings us to the subject at hand.
- [An projection of the Constellation Orion appears before the speaker.]
- Cueball: It's time to talk about the fact that Orion clearly has a dong.
- Attendee in crowd #1: It's hard to miss.
- Attendee #2: We could keep telling people it's a sword.
- Attendee #3: C'mon, no one's buying that anymore.
add a comment! ⋅ add a topic (use sparingly)! ⋅ refresh comments!
Stay classy Randall... -- 184.108.40.206 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
The funny thing about people expecting us to believe Orion's penis is a sword is that swords weren't yet invented when Orion was named. However, everyone knew what a penis was. This is what we call an open and shut case.22.214.171.124 15:29, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
- We don't know exactly when Orion was created but, he was mentioned for the first time in the odyssey, about 8th BC. The first swords, the bronze-age swords, are from 17th BC. While Orion is old, is of course not as old as the 17th BC century. So, there were swords when Orion was created. ...But of course, the thing in the constellation is totally a dong. 126.96.36.199 19:57, 21 July 2014 (UTC)

Death Toll Rises In Egypt Crackdown [VIDEO]
Egypt's Health Ministry is raising the death toll in Wednesday's violence in the streets of Cairo.
Officials say at least 421 people were killed after police moved to clear two sit-in camps by supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi. The deadly clashes spread to other parts of the Egyptian capital and a string of other cities across the country.
Officials also say more than 2,900 people were injured.
The violence prompted the government to declare a month-long state of emergency and a nighttime curfew in Cairo, Alexandria on the Mediterranean and 12 provinces where violence broke out.

So, when will CBS reveal the official list of the contestants?
Quote from: Theodorus on January 17, 2012, 06:32:56 AMSo, when will CBS reveal the official list of the contestants?They give some promo today...
and boss is different!But two CA law enforcement teams??
I think the pair you have listed as Dave & Rachel may in fact be Brenchel, with Dave & Rachel being the pair on the far left?? I don't see Rachel's (of Dave & Rachel) blonde hair in the team fourth from the left and if you look here you'll see our blonde Rachel has a pink top on underneath, just like the girl on the far left.Though I might be wrong myself, it's hard to tell with it not being too clear. Hear that CBS? We want a new promo!!
two Rachels Dave and Rachel are my pre-show favorites!
I can't watch the Meet the Teams vids on that link you gave us. I'm from Holland, so how can I see them?

What the Brothers said about the constitution in 2011
↪ A Muslim Brotherhood leader on bin Laden, Israel and Egypt's elections - The Washington Post
From a May 2011 interview with Muslim Brotherhood leader Essam al-Erian:
Will the Muslim Brotherhood win the next election because it is so organized?
The next election must represent all political factions, even weak groups. We as the Muslim Brotherhood are keen to have a coalition to go to the elections together to have a parliament that represents all Egyptians, not only powerful groups. All Egyptians must be represented — Muslims, Coptics, leftists, liberalists, nationalists, Islamists — all must be there to have a neutral committee to write the constitution. This is very important for a real democracy.

Mannion leads Oregon State to 52-24 victory over Washington State
- Image 1 of 2
- Image 2 of 2
PULLMAN, Wash. – Sean Mannion threw for 493 yards and four touchdowns as Oregon State beat Washington State 52-24 on Saturday night.
Oregon State (5-1, 3-0 Pac 12) won its fifth game in a row since a shocking opening loss to FCS Eastern Washington.
The home loss dealt a blow to Washington State's (4-3, 2-2) hopes of reaching a bowl for the first time since 2003.
Washington State led 24-17 late in the third quarter when the Beavers erupted for three quick touchdowns to take control of the game.
Mannion completed 34 of 51 passes and was intercepted once. Brandin Cooks caught 11 passes for 137 yards and two touchdowns, and ran for another. Richard Mullaney caught five passes for 122 yards.
Washington State quarterback Connor Halliday completed 26 of 49 passes for 248 yards as the Beavers were able to shut down WSU's potent pass attack. He was intercepted three times.

The Interdisciplinary Program in Law and Religion was created to provide a forum for study, research and public discussion of issues arising at the nexus of law and religion. These include questions of the separation of Church and state, public and private morality, and the relationship of concerns of the institutional Church to establish legal norms.
Although it does not constitute an academic concentration as such, faculty members involved in the Law and Religion program offer a number of courses that permit students to examine the subject matter in a considerable depth. These courses include: Source of Christian Jurisprudence, Law of Church/State Relations, First Amendment Seminar: Religious Liberty, Contemporary Social Issues Under Jewish Law, Canon Law for American Attorneys, Catholic Social Teaching and the Law, and the Catholic Natural Law Tradition. Students also have the option of creating a specialized interdisciplinary program in conjunction with other university departments, such as theology, nursing, philosophy or the National Catholic School of Social Science. Interested students should contact the program director, Professor Robert Destro (shown above, right, greeting Pope Benedict XVI in Rome on March 1, 2006), for further information.

The Artist Project in Toronto
The Artist Project at Exhibition Place in Toronto is a different kind of art fair. Only in its 5th year, The Artist Project has the look and feel of other art fairs but operates in a more artist-friendly manner, showing the juried work of 200 independent, contemporary artists. Unlike other art fairs, there are no gallery booths or curated exhibits – artists themselves man the booths and present their own work.
The Queen Elizabeth Building venue at Exhibition Place is large but not nearly as overwhelming as the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, where the Interior Design Show (IDS) and Toronto International Art Fair are held. We love being able to meet, speak with and buy directly from artists. Features of the show include the Untapped Emerging Artists Competition, with the work of 16 emerging artists on display and Installation Alley, with its large-scale sculpture, conceptual art and installation pieces.
