Rocky Training vs. Ivan Drago Training: Which is better?
My son's swim season is over and he's getting himself ready for track. Last week he wanted to go for a run, but the roads around our house were covered with a slippery, icy slush–runnable, but risky and not conducive to any sort of good workout. But it was, "Not a problem," I told him. "You're just going to have to do some Rocky 4 training." He knew exactly what I meant because in 2006, when the movie Rocky Balboa was coming out, I decided he and his brother should not only see that movie, but all the Rocky movies, in order, which we did over the course of a few weeks. Rocky 4 is the episode where Rocky goes to desolate, wintery Siberia to train for his fight with the seemingly invincible Ivan Drago. In the movie Rocky runs through the snow, hoists rocks, chops wood, cuts down a tree, high-steps through the snow with a log over his shoulders, gets down on all fours to pull a sled, and engages in all sorts of other unconventional training methods, and it was that snowy, cold, back-to-nature, get-away-from-it-all, unmeasurable, numbers-free training I was referring to.
So my son put on his running clothes, a pair of long wool socks and an extra jacket and headed out to the park adjacent our back yard and ran loops in the snow. How far did he run? Who knows. How fast? Not very. But it didn't matter. He came home tired and a bit cold, but exhilarated and satisfied. At least that's how I feel on the days I "go" Rocky 4, or "do" my Rocky 4 training. Sometimes I even use "Rocky 4" as a verb, as in "I'm going to go out and 'Rocky 4' for a while." I can't imagine I'm the only one who thinks this way and some of my favorite workouts this seemingly endless winter have been my Rocky 4 days: running high-stepping loops through the snow in that same park behind my house, strapping on ankle weights for a 3 degree walk along the frozen lakefront in Chicago, working off my hangover during Poker Weekend by churning through thigh-high snow in the quiet woods surrounding my brother-in-law's cabin. These were all great workouts and you wouldn't find any of them in anyone's recommended training plan.
Of course, the majority of the training I've done this winter is more like that of Rocky's nemesis, Ivan Drago. You see, all of Drago's training took place indoors, in the lab, on machines, with every part of every workout precisely planned and measured to maximize the training benefit; and coming back from knee surgery, unable to run like I used to, I've spent a lot of time on machines, and know how far I've gone, how fast, and how hard I've had to work to accomplish it. I've run on the treadmill, done the elliptical, pedaled on a spin bike (with a sweaty instructor barking at me the whole time), done swim sessions with everything on precisely timed intervals, contorted my body to push and push all sort of weights, et cetera.
When Rocky 4 came out in 1985, Drago's training methods were not accessible to the average athlete. But there have been so many sports science advancements since then, every health club has machines like the ones Drago trained on, and anyone who wants to can get all sorts of precise, numerical feedback on their workouts. Any athlete can follow any number of training plans that have been scientifically proven to improve speed, endurance, power, anything. There is also information on what one is supposed to eat and drink, when and how much, the best ways to recover, et cetera, et cetera. It's all out there for anyone who wants it, but the question is, do we want it? Should we? Is it better to train like Drago, to know exactly what you're doing, why, and what the results will be; or is better to train like Rocky did, just going with your gut, just doing it?
Well, for a runner, if one's goal is just to get faster, following a rigorous, scientific training plan probably is better. The body adapts through training, and if the methods have been proven, there's no reason the results won't come. To ignore that, to just go with what feels right, will surely lead to some kind of training error, too much or too little of this or that. I mean, it's got to be precise. The reason they had all those perfect looking roses at the grocery store for Valentine's day was because they've figured out the right amount of light, heat, water, nutrients, et cetera to grow them that way. Bodies are more complicated and unpredictable than rose bushes, but the same principles apply.
Like I said, I've used some of the new training technology, especially this last year as I've tried to get myself back into shape. I've got lots of HR information from workouts, know how many watts I've averaged in my spin classes, I take vitamins and supplements I've read can improve performance. But relatively speaking, my training is not scientific or precise. I've never been good at science and all I really do with my HR monitor and most information is gather information. I never really base my training on it like is suggested.
Sometimes I think maybe I should be more scientific instead of, like a lot of runners, I suppose, training hard but haphazardly, with a smorgasbord of ideas all mashed together, and then kind of "hoping" for a good day when a race comes. I mean, variety is good, so is adaptability, and trying new things. These are all good in life, but are they so good when one is trying to get faster? I don't know. Of course, too much variety is bad because it's not training if you don't do something often enough. For example, running hills or doing pushups only one day, getting sore and never doing it again means there's no real benefit because the key is to get the body to adapt to stress over time to get stronger.
Now I don't want to present myself as completely ignorant. I've been running a long time, I do follow a general schedule, a set of rules, and try to replicate training models that have worked for me in the past, but sometimes I think if I followed a more deliberate plan, I'd be better able to not only get in better shape, but predict my performances. Maybe I'd be more like the roses in the grocery store, or like the Nike Oregon Project runner Galen Rupp. His training is reportedly so scientific he is sometimes he referred to as his coach's "lab rat," but he seem to be always getting faster and able to perform when it counts. Based on results and studies, there seems to be no denying the effectiveness of this method.
But is this what I want? I do want to get faster. And especially recovering from knee surgery, I should know exactly what I'm doing and what the effects will be. I tell myself I'm being smart, mixing it up, being careful, coming back slowly, but I'm prone to do things on a whim. I make a vague training plan at the beginning of each week, a set of goals, but then each new day comes and I make it up as I go. For example, if the conditions are good, I might try to ski. If the pool is open, I'll swim. If my running friends tell me they're doing a track workout, knee willing, I'll join them, and whatever the workout is, I'll do it. If I've got time and energy, I might go down to my basement and lift weights. This all helps, but I've got no real plan. Usually I'm happy if I get close to 10 hours a week, of anything. I am getting faster, in the pool and on the track and my knee is getting stronger (details on all of this coming soon), so I'm doing some things right. But a routine, scientifically proven, based on data, experiments, physiology, would surely be better.
But I'm not competing, like Galen Rupp, for Olympic medals or world records. I want to race again, but not having raced for so long, I see now that what I'm mostly training for is the experience of training, the feelings I get, the satisfaction, the discovery. Maybe I could go faster if I followed a stricter program, stayed within HR limits each workout, took ice baths then feel asleep dreaming about my VO2 max, calculated and measured more of what I do. I'm pretty sure that would work but I'm afraid I might lose the joy of training if I did that.
One point the movie makes about Drago's training is that he is monitored at all times. But I think it's been proven that when a person is monitored, he/she is less engaged, less productive, less creative. And following a rigid, scientific training plan is like being monitored all the time, even if you're only watching yourself. So while Rocky struggles in his training, has doubts, and makes mistakes, he also has moments of real ecstasy. Drago has no highs or lows, he just does the work.
Of course, I love to read about new discoveries and techniques that can improve performance and I do incorporate some of this into my workouts. I guess what I'm saying is that while I see the value in this, it's even more important for me to lose track of myself, not care, not know, merge with whatever it is I am doing, and just let things happen. I don't want to lose that sense of adventure I get when I train. I like to step on the track or jump in the pool and ask myself, what can you today? What's going to happen? I probably work out this way for the same reason I rarely measure out any ingredients when I cook. Because it's more interesting for me.
Is this a character trait or a character flaw? I suppose that depends on your perspective and I realize I could be wrong about training like Rocky. But whatever your perspective, you've got to admit there's something to be said for surprise, the unmeasurable, and hope. If you remember Rocky 4, even though Drago was bigger, faster, and stronger than Rocky, he didn't win. Rocky won, because though Drago's precisely measured training told him he should win, Rocky's spartan training told him he could win, but he still he had to hope he would. When Rocky stepped into the ring, it was to find out what would happen, what he was really capable of, and for lots of things in life, that's what it be should about, moving forward into the unknown.
I don't mean to oversimplify this. I know different people are motivated in different ways, Rocky's training wouldn't have worked if he hadn't already known what he was doing, and this philosophy has got its limitations. Sometimes my lovely, perfect wife tells me I'm too obsessed with my training. I agree and I wonder how this would change if I followed a stricter plan. Would I think about it more, to make sure I stuck to it, or would I think about it less, already knowing what I had to do and that it would work? I don't know. Still, I think some of the best workouts are the simplest and most uncomplicated, the Rocky workouts, like running through the snow with no thoughts about how far or how fast. That's kind of the essence of it, right? Just doing it. Working hard. Seeing what happens. I guess I like to start with that then fill in the rest….

Can Trump Really Bring Manufacturing Jobs Back from China?
Craig Guillot
But can he really draw manufacturing jobs from China? Experts say most jobs can't return to American factories because they've been taken over by automation and technology, not Chinese workers. While the manufacturing sector has been growing and is estimated to add 3.5 million jobs over the next decade, these jobs are quite different from the unskilled positions of the past.
Most manufacturing jobs lost over the past couple of decades have been due to technology. A study by the Center for Business and Economic Research at Ball State University said that 85% of the 5.6 million job losses between 2000 and 2010 were attributed to automation rather than international trade. Because manufacturers have leveraged technology to do more with less, they've been able to increase output with fewer people. Robotics, efficiency improvements, data analytics, and new processes have eliminated millions of positions.
"Automation has transformed the American factory, rendering millions of low-skilled jobs redundant. Fast-spreading technologies like robotics and 3D printing will exacerbate the trend."
"Automation has transformed the American factory, rendering millions of low-skilled jobs redundant," Mireya Solis, senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, told the Financial Times. "Fast-spreading technologies like robotics and 3D printing will exacerbate the trend."
Nevertheless, a flood of Chinese imports have indirectly eliminated jobs by reducing demand for American products. A study published in The Journal of Labor Economics did find, however, that the U.S. lost at least 2 million jobs between 1999 and 2011 because of a surge in Chinese imports. But even if China blinked out of existence tomorrow, there just wouldn't be a need for much of the work America lost. The low-skilled labor that fueled manufacturing a generation ago has little place on today's manufacturing floors, which are largely driven by computers, robots and technology.
Meanwhile, China also has been grappling with its own jobs losses. Many Chinese workers are losing their jobs because of rising costs, a slower domestic economy, and stiff competition from a number of other countries, including the U.S. The labor market in China has changed in recent years and wages for Chinese workers have risen nearly 30% over the past three years. Many companies are moving from China to places like Vietnam and Bangladesh where labor costs are half as much.
And even though it's a drop in the bucket of the jobs lost over the years, some are already returning here on their own. A 2015 study by Boston Consulting Group said that the costs of manufacturing in China's major export zones were almost the same as those in the U.S., when factoring in wages, productivity, costs and other factors. The nonprofit advocacy group Reshoring Initiative also noted that, in 2015, the country added almost as many jobs due to foreign investment as it lost to offshoring. Walmart, Ford and Boeing alone have reshored more than 11,000 jobs in the past year.

Fentanyl Law Enforcement Submissions and Increases in Synthetic Opioid-Involved Overdose Deaths - 27 States, 2013-2014
MMWR. Morbidity and mortality weekly report
In March and October 2015, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and CDC, respectively, issued nationwide alerts identifying illicitly manufactured fentanyl (IMF) as a threat to public health and safety (1,2). IMF is unlawfully produced fentanyl, obtained through illicit drug markets, includes fentanyl analogs, and is commonly mixed with or sold as heroin (1,3,4). Starting in 2013, the production and distribution of IMF increased to unprecedented levels, fueled by increases in the global supply, processing, and distribution of fentanyl and fentanyl-precursor chemicals by criminal organizations (3). Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid 50-100 times more potent than morphine (2).* Multiple states have reported increases in fentanyl-involved overdose (poisoning) deaths (fentanyl deaths) (2). This report examined the number of drug products obtained by law enforcement that tested positive for fentanyl (fentanyl submissions) and synthetic opioid-involved deaths other than methadone (synthetic opioid deaths), which include fentanyl deaths and deaths involving other synthetic opioids (e.g., tramadol). Fentanyl deaths are not reported separately in national data. Analyses also were conducted on data from 27 states(†) with consistent death certificate reporting of the drugs involved in overdoses. Nationally, the number of fentanyl submissions and synthetic opioid deaths increased by 426% and 79%, respectively, during 2013-2014; among the 27 analyzed states, fentanyl submission increases were strongly correlated with increases in synthetic opioid deaths. Changes in fentanyl submissions and synthetic opioid deaths were not correlated with changes in fentanyl prescribing rates, and increases in fentanyl submissions and synthetic opioid deaths were primarily concentrated in eight states (high-burden states). Reports from six of the eight high-burden states indicated that fentanyl-involved overdose deaths were primarily driving increases in synthetic opioid deaths. Increases in synthetic opioid deaths among high-burden states disproportionately involved persons aged 15-44 years and males, a pattern consistent with previously documented IMF-involved deaths (5). These findings, combined with the approximate doubling in fentanyl submissions during 2014-2015 (from 5,343 to 13,882) (6), underscore the urgent need for a collaborative public health and law enforcement response.

Deaths Involving Fentanyl, Fentanyl Analogs, and U-47700 - 10 States, July-December 2016
Preliminary estimates of U.S. drug overdose deaths exceeded 60,000 in 2016 and were partially driven by a fivefold increase in overdose deaths involving synthetic opioids (excluding methadone), from 3,105 in 2013 to approximately 20,000 in 2016 (1,2). Illicitly manufactured fentanyl, a synthetic opioid 50-100 times more potent than morphine, is primarily responsible for this rapid increase (3,4). In addition, fentanyl analogs such as acetylfentanyl, furanylfentanyl, and carfentanil are being detected increasingly in overdose deaths (5,6) and the illicit opioid drug supply (7). Carfentanil is estimated to be 10,000 times more potent than morphine (8). Estimates of the potency of acetylfentanyl and furanylfentanyl vary but suggest that they are less potent than fentanyl (9). Estimates of relative potency have some uncertainty because illicit fentanyl analog potency has not been evaluated in humans. This report describes opioid overdose deaths during July-December 2016 that tested positive for fentanyl, fentanyl analogs, or U-47700, an illicit synthetic opioid, in 10 states participating in CDC's Enhanced State Opioid Overdose Surveillance (ESOOS) program.* Fentanyl analogs are similar in chemical structure to fentanyl but not routinely detected because specialized toxicology testing is required. Fentanyl was detected in at least half of opioid overdose deaths in seven of 10 states, and 57% of fentanyl-involved deaths also tested positive for other illicit drugs, such as heroin. Fentanyl analogs were present in >10% of opioid overdose deaths in four states, with carfentanil, furanylfentanyl, and acetylfentanyl identified most frequently. Expanded surveillance for opioid overdoses, including testing for fentanyl and fentanyl analogs, assists in tracking the rapidly changing illicit opioid market and informing innovative interventions designed to reduce opioid overdose deaths.

Consequences of the 340B Drug Pricing Program
Background The 340B Drug Pricing Program entitles qualifying hospitals to discounts on outpatient drugs, increasing the profitability of drug administration. By tying the program eligibility of hospitals to their Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) adjustment percentage, which reflects the proportion of hospitalized patients who are low-income, the program is intended to expand resources for underserved populations but provides no direct incentives for hospitals to use financial gains to enhance care for low-income patients. Methods We used Medicare claims and a regression-discontinuity design, taking advantage of the threshold for program eligibility among general acute care hospitals (DSH percentage, >11.75%), to isolate the effects of the program on hospital-physician consolidation (i.e., acquisition of physician practices or employment of physicians by hospitals) and on the outpatient administration of parenteral drugs by hospital-owned facilities in three specialties in which parenteral drugs are frequently used. For low-income patients, we also assessed the effects of the program on the provision of care by hospitals and on mortality. Results Hospital eligibility for the 340B Program was associated with 2.3 more hematologist-oncologists practicing in facilities owned by the hospital, or 230% more hematologist-oncologists than expected in the absence of the program (P=0.02), and with 0.9 (or 900%) more ophthalmologists per hospital (P=0.08) and 0.1 (or 33%) more rheumatologists per hospital (P=0.84). Program eligibility was associated with significantly higher numbers of parenteral drug claims billed by hospitals for Medicare patients in hematology-oncology (90% higher, P=0.001) and ophthalmology (177% higher, P=0.03) but not rheumatology (77% higher, P=0.12). Program eligibility was associated with lower proportions of low-income patients in hematology-oncology and ophthalmology and with no significant differences in hospital provision of safety-net or inpatient care for low-income groups or in mortality among low-income residents of the hospitals' local service areas. Conclusions The 340B Program has been associated with hospital-physician consolidation in hematology-oncology and with more hospital-based administration of parenteral drugs in hematology-oncology and ophthalmology. Financial gains for hospitals have not been associated with clear evidence of expanded care or lower mortality among low-income patients.

Regulating Compounding Pharmacies after NECC.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) rules are often forged in crisis. After the 1937 sulfanilamide disaster that killed more than 100 people, Congress passed the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA), requiring drugs to be safe and properly labeled. In 1962, a requirement was introduced for proof of drug efficacy through "adequate and well-controlled investigations," partly in response to the thalidomide tragedy. Rules protecting human-research subjects owe a debt to Tuskegee and Nuremberg. Sometimes it takes a disaster to spur the adoption of appropriate regulation. Today, compounding pharmacies are at the center of a controversy after a rare outbreak of . . .

Open source drug discovery in practice: a case study.
Open source drug discovery offers potential for developing new and inexpensive drugs to combat diseases that disproportionally affect the poor. The concept borrows two principle aspects from open source computing (i.e., collaboration and open access) and applies them to pharmaceutical innovation. By opening a project to external contributors, its research capacity may increase significantly. To date there are only a handful of open source R&D projects focusing on neglected diseases. We wanted to learn from these first movers, their successes and failures, in order to generate a better understanding of how a much-discussed theoretical concept works in practice and may be implemented.

Harm reduction journal
Drug checking is a harm reduction strategy which allows users to check the content and purity of illicit drugs. Although drug checking has been trialled internationally, with demonstrated value as a harm reduction and health promotion strategy, the use of such services in Australia remains a contentious issue. This study aimed to investigate the proportion and patterns of illicit drug use among young people, their attitudes towards drug checking at festivals and the potential impact of drug checking on intended drug use behaviour.

Liposuction with stem cells
Pre-operative
It is a normal liposuction with the added value that part of the extracted fat can be preserved and benefit from regenerative medicine.
For first time, today it is possible to preserve stem cells from the extracted fat in a liposuction in a private bank. All people that did not have the opportunity to extract stem cells from their umbilical cord, can now preserved them and benefit from the applications of regenerative medicine in the future. Sr. Jorge Planas, plastic surgeon and medical director of Clínica Planas, has presented for first time in the world, the validation study of this technique of preservation of mesenchymal stem cells, called lipo-save.
Aesthetic surgery at the service of regenerative medicine
After 6 years of investigation, Clinica Planas presented the validation study of the LIPO-SAVE technique so as to store stem cells from extracted fat of liposuction in October 2008. It is the validation of a process that consists of the extraction of fat via liposuction, obtaining and cultivating stem cells and later their storage and preservation in a laboratory and private bank of stem cells in UK.
In the first phase of this investigation, studies were made with the University of Barcelona. Extracted fat was sent to Dr. Senen Vilaró and he isolated and cultivated the cells in an experimental manner in his laboratory.
In a second phase, Clínica Planas created a validated and sterile extraction, container and transport system of this fat from the surgery room to the laboratory. Clínica Planas contacted also with a tissue bank so as to save the stem cells once isolated and cultivated.
For the development of this technique, known as Lipo-Save and validated by the European regulation and the Ministry of Health of UK, Clínica Planas counts with adapted equipment that allows the manipulation of fat tissue without damaging the necessary qualities to obtain stem cells. On the other hand, this centre has established the optimum periods for each phase of the process, thus guaranteeing the quality and optimum conditions of fat tissue that will be manipulated for extracting stem cells. In less than 30 hours, the container arrives to the laboratory, where the stem cells are isolated and cultivated before being frozen at -180º. The cryopreservation will save cells during years and once needed for the patient, the cells will be defrosted and 80% of cells will be restored.
This technique has been applied to more than 50 patients in Clínica Planas, who have their stem cells stored in a UK bank.
From now on, this technique will be offered to those patients that will go under a liposuction treatment and are interested in preserving their stem cells.
It is a normal liposuction with the added value that part of the extracted fat will be sent to a laboratory to isolate stem cells, which will be cultivated and preserved in a private tissue bank. This procedure is done at the same time that a traditional liposuction, with no disadvantages for the patient. The length of procedure, post surgical treatment, etc? is the same as a normal liposuction.
Stem cells for everybody
The liposuction is the most effective technique to extract enough fat to obtain mesenchymal stem cells.
All tissues from the human body have stem cells, but the adipose tissue (fat) is the one with greater proportion and its extraction is less aggressive for the patient than extracting them from any other tissue of the body.
Surgery duration
1 - 3 hours
General o local
It is a normal liposuction with the added value that part of the extracted fat will be sent to a laboratory to isolate stem cells, which will be cultivated and preserved in a private tissue bank. Thus, it consists of the elimination of the excess fat in the affected area of the body via its aspiration with small cannulas that are inserted through small incisions in the fat deposits located under the skin.
This procedure is done at the same time that a traditional liposuction, with no disadvantages for the patient.
As in all surgical treatments, a prior medical checkup is a must to detect any possible anomaly that may prevent from doing the treatment.
During the first examination, the specialists will asses you about the different options to solve your problem, will carefully evaluate your general conditions and will listen to your expectations. Afterwards, the doctor will check the parts of the body where fat is accumulating and will calculate the approximate volume needed to be extracted so as to recover an adequate body shape, always taking into account the quality of the skin in the area to be treated.
If you smoke and you would like to be treated on liposuction, you will have to stop smoking at least two weeks after and before the treatment, since tobacco can negatively affect the formation of the scar tissue. If you are on medication, it is very important to let the surgeon know before the surgery.
After liposuction, during a month, a girdle should be used. Massages on the treated area may also be necessary to control inflammation and to help the skin to be adapted to the new body shape. In most cases, post-operative control last 24 hours.
Besides swollenness and bruises of surgery, liposuction left very small scars hardly visible, since the cannulas used to suck out the fat are very fine. It is necessary to wait some time, to appreciate the results, without any signals. Regarding possible nuisances, it depends on the treated region and the extension. Abdominal area uses to be the most painful. Liposuction on knees and thighs also produces pain during the first days, but they are under control with analgesics. Lymphatic drainage massages should be done twice per week the first two months, in order to help recovery.
There are several basic cares which are important to follow to guarantee the success of liposuction. Once discharged from the Clinique, it is possible to travel. For planning future travel, it is important to take into account that you will have to come back to the Clinique to remove stitches. Former usual activities can be performed two days after the surgical treatment but physical exercise, that will have to wait at least two or three weeks, depending on the treated area. Bathing is forbidden the first week after the treatment. It is recommendable to have short showers with warm water. It is also important not to take sun baths and sun beds during the first two months, so as to avoid dark spots on the skin. It is not recommendable to use the sauna to avoid the augmentation of swollenness, until three months after the operation.
Stem cells are applied in regenerative medicine and it is hoped that in the near future they can be used in the treatment of diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, spinal cord injuries, orthopaedic surgery or neurological diseases.
All those people who have not had the opportunity to remove stem cells from their umbilical cord will be able to preserve them and benefit from the applications of regenerative medicine in the future
Which contraindications may have liposuction and liposculpture?
If the area to be treated presents big flaccidity, the plastic surgeon will evaluate the possibility to do another treatment. In the case of a patient with overweight, it is advisable to treat the obesity first before doing a liposuction. Finally, if you suffer a vascular sickness, a vascular specialist will examine you to valorate your case.
Which risks are associated to this surgical procedure?
Liposuction is considered a safe surgical treatment and has a very low index of complications only if done by qualified specialists and the appropriate means. Nevertheless, as in any other surgical procedure, there is a risk of hemorrhage, infections and complications regarding the use of anaesthesia.
Regarding specific risks, the following risks are possible, although rare: variation of the sensibility of the skin during a period of time; persistence of swollenness, changes of colour and irregularities on the skin contour after the usual recuperation period (in these cases, additional treatments will be done); infections on the skins or excessive bleeding, two unusual complications (less than 1% of patients) that use to appear on patients under a specific medication before the treatment. The apparition of fat embolisation or thromboembolism, skin colour change and variation of the sensibility of skin on the treated areas are still less frequent.
The apparition of small haematomas and swollenness on the treated area can not be considered a complication. In 10% of cases it is necessary to retouch an area after several months.
Can a cosmetic be used to help improvement of scars?
Scar formation and final result will depend on each skin and personal characteristics of each patient. Nevertheless, there are several cosmetic treatments that help to fasten the cicatrisation and to diminish the marks, such as mosquet oil and reparative cicatrisation crèmes. The surgeon will recommend you the most appropriate treatment for your particular case.
The case of the skin before and after the operation will affect on the final visibility of scars.
Do liposuction and liposculpture eliminate cellulites?
Cellulites can improve, although it does not disappear definitively. Liposuction and liposculpture are treatments for the excess of fat cells. The edema and constitution defects of the fat tissue that presents cellulites do not have surgical treatment.
Dr. Jorge Planas explains the results
Dr. Jorge Planas
The results are the same as in a traditional liposuction, i.e. a visible diminution of the volume and an improvement of the body shape, with the added value that part of the extracted fat can be preserved in a stem cells bank and the patient can later benefit from the applications of regenerative medicine, via the use of stem cells that can be isolated from the preserved fat.

Please contact Wastewater Operations via email or at (417) 864-1544 with any questions before transporting any hauled wastewater not previously approved of by the city.


Aman ke Badhte Qadam, an Indo-Pak peace caravan, started from Mumbai on July 28, 2010, and concluded successfully in Lahore on August 15, as planned. This was the first major people's initiative for peace between the two countries after the terrorist attack on Mumbai on November 26, 2008.
We chose Mumbai as the origin of the Caravan to convey the message that even after the ghastly act witnessed by people there, we wanted peace and friendship with Pakistan. People along the route warmly welcomed the Caravan, in all the states we passed through – Maharashtra, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Delhi, Haryana and Punjab.
We merged with the annual programme to jointly commemorate Pakistan and India Independence Days with music and candle lighting at the Wagha border. Hundreds of thousands of people attended the musical night on the Indian side of the border, which featured the charismatic singer Satinder Sartaj this year. Sartaj was as dynamic in his actions as his poetry. He covered the issues of open borders between the two countries, peaceful resolution of disputes, disarmament and dangers of nuclearisation and oneness of people, the objectives of the India Pakistan Peace Caravan and all such people's peace initiatives.
Veteran journalist Kuldip Nayar from Delhi, filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt from Mumbai, theatre artist Sheema Kermani from Karachi, politicians Shahid Siddiqui, Naresh Yadav, A.R. Shaheen, Sunilam from India and Aitzaz Ahsan and Iqbal Haider from Pakistan participated in these events.
On the Pakistan side, the Caravan left from Karachi on August 7, 2010, delayed for a few days after the original schedule due to the situation in Pakistan. The Caravan had to be abandoned by the time it reached Hyderabad as the flood situation had become critical by then. However, Pakistani delegates did participate in the events in Amritsar on 13 and August 14.
Ten Indian peace activists came to Lahore the following day, and participated in the fund raising camps at Regal Chowk on Mall Road. Together, we raised more than a lakh of rupees that day, including a contribution of Indian Rs 25,000 that we had brought from India. We promised that when we returned to India, we would raise more money there for flood victims in Pakistan.
The response that we Indian peace activists got on the streets of Lahore was tremendous. It signaled the changing mood in the sub-continent in which people and governments want to work together more than before. The globalising world and the increased threat of terrorism is forcing the governments into closer cooperation.
At a meeting later that evening we agreed to continue with Aman ke Badhte Qadam. Keeping in view the immediate need in Pakistan, we offered to send a team of Indian doctors and trucks of medicines across. The Pakistani organisers of the Caravan took the responsibility of hosting such a medical team.
We urge the governments to use this opportunity to relax their visa regime and allow teams of doctors and relief workers from India to enter Pakistan and help carry out relief work. The city-specific visas that our governments are issuing won't do for any meaningful relief work. Maybe this is a blessing in disguise, an opportunity for the two governments to reconsider their policies of restricting travel between the two countries.
Given a chance many Indians, especially those associated with civil society organizations, would like to visit Pakistan and contribute towards flood relief efforts. We hope that the Pakistani government is magnanimous enough to allow as many Indians to come into their country as would like to go. Even in other circumstances common people who want to visit Pakistan from India and vice versa, when denied visas or the permission to cross Wagha border from their own Home/Interior Ministries get very disheartened. Most give up their efforts in preliminary stages and never make it to the other country.
The Indian government has made a generous offer of aid towards flood relief to Pakistan. The government in Pakistan has accepted it after some delay. It is a pity that US had to step in to urge Pakistani government to accept the Indian offer. It is a good example of how Indian and Pakistani governments because of their lack of positive initiatives have allowed a larger role for the US in this area than necessary. US interference anywhere in the world has in general not been beneficial for the people.
The Pakistani economy has been dependent on international aid for a long time. There was never a policy, as in India, to strive towards self-reliance. Unfortunately, India is also discarding its sovereignty and is increasingly more dependent on international aid, although it also provides financial aid to countries like Afghanistan. So, if Paksitan needs help that India can provide, it should be mutually beneficial. It will definitely reduce the atmosphere of antagonism that prevails in official interactions. Moreover, for Pakistan the relationship with India will be more democratic than with the US.
The Pakistani government needed to accept the hand of friendship offered by Indian government, if for nothing else than for the sake of the millions whose lives have been devastated overnight by the floods. For the floods victims, the politics between the two governments has no meaning, even in better times. The Pakistani government had to demonstrate that it cared for its people.
Hopefully, more aid, government and non-government, cash and kind, doctors and relief workers, will follow from India.

Do Not Let This Die Too
The Animal Holocaust started a few days ago, and since has created a media firestorm. Now the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is storm(troop)ing back.
In the OSPCA's first address to the media in the past couple days, as it avoided all calls and communication earlier, its chairman, Rob Godfrey said, "Yeah, the good news is that there's not gonna be mass euthanasia."
At the time of publishing, 99 animals had already been euthanized by the OSPCA's Newmarket shelter, due to a highly treatable ringworm infection.
NINETY-NINE is NOT mass murder, Mr. Godfrey?
Well, perhaps 99 is not a big number to the executives at the OSPCA who are used to six-number salaries. But still, the organization really seems to have great difficulty grasping numbers.
For instance, the initial announcement of the extermination of 350 animals, made by the OSPCA itself, was apparently a miscommunication.
"It got communicated to the public that 350 animals would be euthanized is unfortunate and it's also incorrect," said Godfrey.
So, the OSPCA erroneously said "350" dogs, cats, and other animals would be killed – due to a version of athlete's foot – and did not realize it was a mistake until more than TWO days later?
To be clear, the OSPCA made an error in communication that it did NOT correct, DESPITE public outcry and protest for almost three days.
A few days ago, the shelter planned to dispose needlessly of 350 animals.
Rescues and community members stepped up, offering to care for and house the animals at their own cost. It was to no avail.
The society that protects against cruelty towards animals, found death to be a better option.
But, now that the entire community is completely outraged, donations – and maybe more importantly – jobs are at stake, the OSPCA discovers it made a boo-boo.
Today, it says that while 99 animals have already been killed, 96 others have been fostered to other agencies.
The remaining 140 animals will be monitored for the next month. Those 140 are not out of the killing woods yet.
Interesting, while Godfrey explained this in the OSPCA's press conference today, he also noted that, "Extra security was called in to guard the Newmarket shelter after 15 animals were stolen."
Taking animals to protect them from impending senseless deaths is not stealing. It is life-saving.
Taking the lives of 99 animals (and potentially more) because of an itchy infection is stealing.
Life-stealing.
Otherwise known as murder in the Criminal Code of Canada.
The Code addresses such things as causing intentional and unnecessary pain and suffering to an animal, willfully neglecting an animal or killing an owned animal without a lawful excuse for doing so.
Unfortunately, the OSPCA seems to be the law. It polices cruelty to animals, and answers to no one about its own cruel actions. Even with calls for help, the provincial government still has not stepped in.
"It's very painful for those who have to watch from the sidelines, but I think we have to have confidence in our experts," says Premier Dalton McGuinty.
"I think" we have to have confidence, doesn't sound very confident, does it?
And by the way, the "experts" say you shouldn't kill people or animals infected with ringworm. You should simply give them antibiotics, and keep them clean.
Regardless, this has been a huge debacle on the part of the OSPCA, its CEO Kate MacDonald, and its Newmarket shelter.
There were many options that could have been exercised.
The organization could have used the media for public awareness and outreach. There may have even been a corporation looking to help. Good publicity and a tax break would have been well worth the investment to save priceless lives.
Instead, the OSPCA autonomously and surreptitiously decides to exterminate its charges, because of a serious, but treatable ringworm outbreak. Then it decides to arrest offers for help and ignore the media and the community. And finally, it declares its "good news" that only 99 dogs and cats were killed. (And maybe more to come.)
This has been a tragedy on many levels. Worse, this has been preventable on every level.
The Newmarket OSPCA should be dismantled.
The management of the OSPCA should be overhauled.
Yes, there are OSPCA's that do good work. But this cannot happen again. Let the $6 million or so in donations that went to Newmarket's shelter go to another rescue or a new organization. One that won't remind us, even remotely, of the six million of the other Holocaust.
Do not let this story die like the animals of its Holocaust.
a.j.k
compelling to say the least! enraging! keep up your fantastic contribution.
glad to enrage. thank you.
mr godfrey i hope you dont get ringworm.MURDERER

.....it should be shut down because no one in their right mind could donate to the Newmarket OSPCA again.
Personally, I'll never give money to the THS or OSPCA ever again, sad as that is to say.
One of my cats if from THS, yes the one at Queen & River, and when that scandal broke out, I was thankful she had spent less than a few hours there, as a kitten.
Weren't the OSPCA the ones who investigated the THS? Well low and behold, look who are the hypocritical murders now.
This entire thing is a cluster *uck (can I say cluster *uck here? I don't know).
I am SO BEHIND the idea that this CANNOT be swept under the carpet, we all have to follow this story to the end and demand accountibility.
also, keep writing!

Thought you'd like to see this, I subscribed to the Toronto Humane Society Newsletter and received this a few seconds ago:
Thank You, the Animals Needed Your Support and You Answered That Call
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who spoke up and demanded action to stop the planned mass euthanasia of animals due to ringworm at the Ontario SPCA Newmarket headquarters.
It was the combined voices of animal welfare advocates demanding that this action cease that produced change. It is heartbreaking that 100 animals were put down before this drastic action was reconsidered.
The public has demanded answers and we hope that a through independent investigation take place to find out exactly what happened and who made these decisions.
The Toronto Humane Society fully supports MPP Frank Klees' call for changes to the law to ensure that the Ontario SCPA is accountable and has appropriate oversight. Mr. Klees should also be thanked for his tireless work speaking out publicly and in the Ontario Legislature to stop this mass euthanasia.
Thank you, the animals needed your support and you answered that call.

felix: i agree.
jason: cluster *uck is *ine and *abulous... thanks for your comments... love them... and thanks for caring... glad your kitty is okay...

Found this article below which I thought you would find amusing.
"Muslim suicide bombers in Britain are set to begin a three-day strike on Monday in a dispute over the number of virgins they are entitled to in the afterlife. Emergency talks with Al Qaeda management have so far failed to produce an agreement.
The unrest began last Tuesday when Al Qaeda announced that the number of virgins a suicide bomber would receive after his death will be cut by 25% next January from 72 to only 60. The rationale for the cut was the increase in recent years of the number of suicide bombings and a subsequent shortage of virgins in the afterlife…Thanks to Western depravity, there is now a chronic shortage of virgins in the afterlife... Talks broke down this morning after management's last-ditch proposal of a virgin-sharing scheme was rejected outright after a failure to agree on orifice allocation quotas."
Dahlia, I'm thinking you and I broker a deal between Sisley and Al Qaeda. Sisley can supply virgins for the afterlife, suicide bombers happy, Sisley happy, Al Qaeda happy and we can get 20 percent brokerage fee. Do three wrongs make a right? I think not!
i say ask for a higher brokerage fee and i'm in...
i'm gonna search for this article... that is crazy... so i guess that is the norm for this group of nutjobs...
thanks for pointing it out... btw... someone asked me in another comment thread... does bianca have a blog? he or she (and i) find you quite entertaining.

History Revision Materials
The history department aims to investigate the past to help our students understand and analyse the present. We endeavour to develop passionate, life-long and successful learners of all our history students.
The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling but in rising every time we fall.
In your History lessons you will learn to be a critical thinker, write well and understand the world better.
In Year 7 History is studied chronologically and thematically with an emphasis on developing skills that will help all students achieve now and in later life. The overall theme in Year 7 is 'The Creation of Modern Britain'. Year 7 students examine events of 1066 and how this changed Britain forever. Aspects of medieval life are studied before students examine the causes and effects of the Black Death, the development of witchcraft and finish off looking at the establishment of the infamous Tudors. There is also a thematic study on 'Women through Time'.
In Year 8 students study 'The Making of the Modern World'. They examine the changes and continuity in Britain during the 17th century with a focus on the Civil War. Furthermore they go on to study how Britain became part of a global society and the challenges this created. Depth studies on World War One and World War Two immerse pupils in the key features of these conflicts. Students also investigate and debate controversial history topics such as the horrors of the transatlantic slave trade, the dropping of the atomic bomb and the Holocaust.
Students in Year 9 who have chosen GCSE History will begin a brand new three year course. The topics are: Crime and Punishment through Time; Early Elizabethan England; Germany 1919-39 and The Cold War.
In Year 10 and 11 GCSE History students examine the 'Making of the Modern World' Edexcel GCSE. This includes four topics: Germany 1919-39; Britain 1931-51; Civil Rights in the USA and The Cold War. Students are assessed in a variety of ways: through analysis of sources, knowledge recall and extended writing in the Controlled Assessment.

Child abuse inquiry staff raised concerns about lawyer
By Danny Shaw Home affairs correspondent, BBC News
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-40462809
Independent Inquiry into Child Sex Abuse
Image caption Ben Emmerson QC resigned last year as senior barrister on the independent child abuse inquiry
Concerns about the senior barrister on the independent child abuse inquiry had been raised a year before he resigned.
A report says two members of staff "took exception" to Ben Emmerson QC's interactions with them in 2015, though neither accused him of improper conduct or made a formal complaint.
He quit in September 2016 after another worker claimed he had groped her in a lift.
In December, he was cleared of sexual assault and harassment.
The independent report calls the inquiry's response "appropriate and proportionate".
Mark Sutton QC, who led the review, said the inquiry had been confronted with a "set of circumstances with complicating features" that had not been mentioned in the media coverage of the events.
"Anyone with experience of managing complex issues in the workplace would have viewed these circumstances as presenting very formidable challenges, even in a conventional employment setting," he said.
Mr Sutton said the events had arisen at a time when the inquiry had been "recovering its footing following the unsatisfactory leadership of its former chair", Justice Lowell Goddard.
The inquiry, currently led by Prof Alexis Jay, its fourth chair, was set up in 2014 to examine whether public bodies, including the police, had failed in their duty to protect children from sexual abuse.
It will also examine claims of abuse involving "well-known people".
The inquiry has faced repeated criticism from victims of historical child sexual abuse with concerns about its impartiality and independence.
'Perceived treatment'
As part of his review, Mr Sutton obtained details of resignations among the inquiry's team of barristers
His report notes that a number of team members resigned or were released in 2016 "for reasons unconnected with any apparent concern" for Mr Emmerson's style of leadership.
However, he adds that two barristers stated that their decision to leave had been influenced by the "perceived treatment" of the inquiry worker allegedly assaulted in the lift.
The latest review contradicts an earlier report by MPs on the Home Affairs Select Committee, which criticised the inquiry for a "wholly inadequate" response to the internal allegation of sexual assault.
Mr Sutton calls the accusation that the inquiry had been unresponsive to issues of unfair treatment "unjustified".
"It ignores a number of highly material factors, the detail of which I am unable to divulge in this public statement, which cast a fundamentally different light on events," he says.
"I have reached the clear conclusion that the events which came to a head in September last year were the product of a highly specific and confined set of circumstances.
"The attributes of those currently in positions of seniority should enable the inquiry, from here onwards to engage productively with its core activities."
