Johnny SPILLANE
Sport Nordic Combined
Born 24 Nov 1980
Olympic Games 2002, 2006, 2010
Steamboat Springs, town of champions
Johnny Spillane grew up in this small-town ski resort with fewer than 10,000 inhabitants, in the heart of Colorado. At the Vancouver Games, two other citizens of this town were members of the American Nordic combined team: Todd Lodwick and Taylor Fletcher. Perhaps, when they arrived in Vancouver, they spared a thought for Nelson Carmichael, another native of Steamboat Springs, who won a bronze medal at the Albertville Games in 1992.
Third time lucky
In 2010, Johnny participated in his third Olympic Games. At the two previous editions, his best result was a 10th place. For this 2003 world sprint champion, it was written that these Games would see him reap all the rewards; he finally won three silver medals. It was also at these Games that he made history as the first American to win an Olympic medal in Nordic combined, thanks to the silver he won in the individual competition on the normal jump, narrowly missing out on gold. In fourth place after the ski jump, Johnny ended up beaten in the sprint by Frenchman Lamy Chappuis in the cross country race.
The medal of a group of friends
A few days later, motivated by this first medal, alongside his fellow townsman Lodwick, and his friends Bill Demong and Brett Camerotta, Johnny finished second in the team event, beaten by only five seconds by the Austrians. They were silver medallists and, above all, very happy with these laurels crowning the friendship of this group of pals who lived, fished and hunted together. This Olympic medal allowed them to forget the disappointment of a number lost during a race, which had deprived them of a world title the previous year.
For the last competition in Vancouver, Spillane set out in second position, after placing second in the jump heat. He managed to catch up with the competitor ahead of him. But a fall in the last round prevented him from racing in the sprint against his training partner Bill Demong, who ended up overtaking him to win gold. Three races, three medals, all silver, but, above all, the shared happiness of teammates who had become friends.

If you want to do something extra special for the loved ones in your life, you don't always have to think BIG. Here are a few ideas that won't break the bank, but will become memorable gifts or experiences for your family and friends.
1. Start the day by making the usual toast with strawberry jam. But this time use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to present it. Success guaranteed!
2. This one is a no-brainer. It's easy, it's free, the process is fun (if you make it fun) and keeps the kids occupied for hours. Drumroll… It' a clean house! Get to work. Everyone gets to be a part of it, and everyone gets to enjoy the results in the end.
3. No need to buy heart-shaped cushions and garlands to decorate your home. Find a few twigs outside, put them in a vase or pitcher and glue little paper heart cutouts. Simple, yet so elegant.
4. If you ask moms what they really want, 9 out of 10 will probably admit they could use some alone time. Whether it's reading a book in a coffee shop, a little shopping or taking a bubble bath – some quiet uninterrupted time can do miracles for a busy mama. Take notes, dads!
5. Instead of buying a card, go on a scavenger hunt with the kids, and try to find as many objects, shaped as a heart, as you can. If it's a cloud, or a hole in a fence that looks like a heart, take a picture – you can print and frame it later. If it's a heart-shaped rock, you can paint and decorate it at home. It will be a token of love treasured for years to come.

FDA picks up wins heading into playoffs
Published 12:01 pm Wednesday, February 4, 2009
Fighting for a better seed in the region tournament, the Fort Dale girls were pushed to the limit against Taylor Road but came away with a 43-40 win last Friday.
The Eagles held a commanding 16-8 lead after a quarter, but the Tigers fought back and cut the lead to 23-20 at halftime.
The Eagles actually trailed as the game wound down, but a shot by Abbey Martin with just over a minute left gave FDA a 41-40 lead and a bucket by Lori Fail iced the game.
Murphy Middleton led the Eagles with 10 points, while Fail had nine.
Seven of Fail's points came in the fourth quarter.
On the boards, Martin grabbed 15 rebounds.
"This was a huge win for us," said head coach William Johnson. "I'm really proud of them. I can't say enough about how hard they played. The girls never quit."
The win locked up a third seed for the Eagles in the region.
The boys showed some of the same heart against TRA, fighting back in the third quarter of a game that wasn't decided until the final horn.
Taylor Road led 34-19 at halftime, but the Eagles made a furious run in the third quarter.
Luke Hutcheson had back-to-back baskets, followed by a pair of free throws from Kendall Gibson to make the score 40-37.
The Tigers managed to hold the Eagles off, but Steven Lee hit a three-pointer with 3:20 to play to cut the lead to 52-49 after TRA had led by as many as nine.
Fort Dale followed that with a huge three from Sanders Hancock to tie the game a minute later.
However, TRA hit their free throws down the stretch and FDA couldn't hit a last big shot to tie.
"I challenged them at halftime, we played hard in the second half and didn't let it get away from us," Johnson said. "I've got to commend them on their heart. When we play like that, we're a pretty good team."
Hutcheson led the Eagles with 19 points, while Steven Lee had 11.
Against Escambia Academy on Monday night, both teams managed to hold on for tough wins.
A big part of the boys' win was 23 points from Lee.
"He played very well," said Johnson. "Hopefully, he's heating up at the right time. He plays tough defense, and this is the third or fourth game in a row that he's scored in double digits."
The FDA girls also held on a 49-41 win.
"It's good for us to get a win heading into the playoffs," Johnson said. "We've got to play at a high level to win."
The boys will face off against Pike Liberal Arts on Thursday at 11:30, while the girls will play Hooper on Thursday night at 7 p.m.
Both games will be at Huntingdon College, and both teams need to win to advance.

Baltimore warns that children are at risk of lead poisoning from paint
After seven homes certified as lead-free were found to be contaminated, doubts over inspections mean 384 families have been urged to have their children tested

Environmental officials found this week that at least seven Maryland homes certified as lead-free were actually contaminated by lead paint or not inspected at all. The findings by the Maryland department of the environment and the Environmental Protection Agency have prompted a broader investigation into the unnamed private inspector, and notices to 384 families urging them to have their children tested for lead poisoning.
The EPA's lack of integrity has cost the lead-poisoned children of Flint dearly | Marsha Coleman-Adebayo and Kevin Berends
While attention to the recent crisis in Flint, Michigan, has focused on lead contamination in water, high rates of lead poisoning in Baltimore come from lead paint. Children, particularly those younger than six, are vulnerable to long-term effects when they ingest lead particles from peeling paint.
When people in Baltimore talk about "lead checks" they are not talking about the inspections that are supposed to ensure that children aren't endangered by lead poisoning; they are talking about the settlement payments that come after the damage is done. In the most recent discovery of fraudulent lead inspections, the inspector was not named, but is known to have worked for American Homeowner Services LLC between 2010 and 2014.
Although there have been dramatic reductions in lead poisoning in Baltimore over recent decades, an investigation by the Baltimore Sun in December showed that more than 4,900 children have been affected by lead in the last decade – 129 in the last year alone.
But Saul Kerpelman, a lawyer who has handled thousands of lead cases, says these numbers don't really show the extent of the problem. Those numbers, he said, are calculated based on a blood lead level (BLL) of 10 micrograms per deciliter (mg/dl). But the CDC has recently determined that any amount of lead in a child's blood can immediately and irreversibly cause brain damage. Kerpelman said that if you cut the BLL number in half to the current threshold number of 5 mg/dl, there could be as many as 4,000 cases in Baltimore last year and if the acceptable lead level were set to zero, it could be as many as 10,000 exposed children. Kerpelman said that out of the more than 4,000 cases he has dealt with, "99% are black".
"The hysteria about Flint, Michigan, is totally justified," Kerpelman said, referencing findings that residents had been using water with alarmingly high levels of lead. A Guardian investigation in the wake of Flint has found that cities around the country are systematically distorting water tests to underplay the amount of lead in the water.
But Kerpelman says Baltimore's problem with lead paint is even worse because such a large percentage of the city's housing stock was built before 1978, when lead paint became illegal, and is owned by landlords who see their properties "not as an investment [but] as a cashflow machine" in "the same areas where there used to be legal segregation and those were the only places that a black person was allowed to live".
Many of the same absentee landlords come up in these cases over and over again.
"If you type Stanley Rochkind into Maryland case search, his name comes up over 500 times," Kerpelman said.
One of those cases was a suit filed by Freddie Gray, who lived in a Rochkind-owned home as a young boy and tested with a blood lead level of between 11 and 19 mg/dl. He suffered from the effects of lead poisoning, which studies have linked to decreased IQ and short and long-term memory impairment, causing numerous related social problems. Researchers have also found a significant link between lead exposure and crime. Kerpelman calls it "a root cause" of bad schools, crime and drug use. "It all relates back to lead poisoning and because it is black kids we're not doing anything meaningful."
State delegate Jill P Carter goes even further to suggest that a "survey of everyone in the prison system would reveal that a majority of perpetrators of violent crime suffered from lead poisoning".
Rochkind was fined $90,000 by the Maryland department of the environment in 2001, as part of a deal to do lead abatement in nearly 500 units, but for housing advocate Carol Ott that's not enough.
"The consistency needs to be there in terms of fining these property owners. Honestly, some of them should be in jail. When you break a law enough times you should run the risk of coming before the judge who says you're done," she said. "The city has done not a very good job of saying to some of these prolific offenders, 'you need to sell off your properties and not do business in our city. You've poisoned enough families, don't let the door hit you on the way out.'"
Mary Pat Clarke, a member of Baltimore's city council, called for a council meeting on 4 February to investigate how so many children in Baltimore are still poisoned every year. Carter, who introduced legislation to make it easier to punish fraudulent inspectors, called the current situation "particularly heinous" because it could have been prevented, at least partly by the kinds of inspections that the state is now investigating.
"I've been in Annapolis since 2003, there were indications then that there were big problems with the inspection process," Carter said. "A number of years ago I got a little bill passed that tried to address conflicts of interest between property owners and inspectors that they couldn't be related."
Carter said that bill was not enough, but it was all she could get through the legislature at the time because "the property owners' association has an extremely strong lobby in Annapolis and there has been no ability of victims of lead poisoning to counter that" in the state capitol.
Those like Freddie Gray who win their cases and end up with settlements – or lead checks – are often preyed upon by predatory financial institutions that offer an immediate sum of money in exchange for the far larger sum that would come over time. Gray, whose death in police custody in April set off protests and a riot, traded a $146,000 structured settlement, estimated to be worth $94,000 at the time, for just over $18,000.
According to Carter, who sees Baltimore's lead problem as a human rights violation, "the only reparative solution is the market share liability bill which would afford an opportunity to hold paint companies that existed at the time that knew it was poisonous and continued to sell it in the housing stock in Baltimore and get compensation. Without that we'll never be able to address the problem."
Kerpelman sees public nuisance lawsuits, such as those filed against National Lead and Sherwin Williams as another option. "California brought a case against those companies, saying they had created a public nuisance in all the cities that had joined the case. The judge ordered them to join a $1bn fund to abate lead paint in California."
He estimates it would cost about that same amount – $1bn – to abate all the lead paint in Baltimore, which, he estimates, affects 100,000 houses – everything built before lead paint was outlawed in 1978.
"If they cared to, the law could fix this problem," he said. "For sure, if they were white kids the problem would have been solved years and years ago."

Electromagnetic Motion Tracking and Metallic Distortion. Is it a Problem and Is There a Solution?
Polhemus Introduces FTT™
Electromagnetic motion tracking is known for delivering highly accurate position and orientation measurement, with no line-of-sight occlusions, but does metallic distortion ever cause a problem? The answer is, sometimes, and it's highly dependent on the application.
The majority of the time, Polhemus electromagnetic tracking solutions do not encounter any issues with metallic distortion (a non-linear signal corruptor which induces accuracy degradation in the tracker's output).
With tens of thousands of trackers in the field, and more than 50 years of experience as the Motion Tracking Experts™, we know what works and what doesn't work with tracking applications that are as diverse as our customer's imaginations.
Are there solutions to challenging tracking environments with distortion concerns? YOU BET. Is there a simple, on-the-fly, "fix" for mitigating distortion in real-time? The short answer is YES.
The solution is FTT™ (Fly True Technology), by Polhemus. FTT is a proprietary feature built into the latest electromagnetic motion tracking system, VIPER™. FTT utilizes environmental sensing technology and algorithmic filters to produce an iterative compensation method.
What's That Really Mean?
It means the VIPER tracking system senses the distortion caused by metal and compensates for it automatically. Think of it like a smart sensing feature that knows when there is metallic distortion in the environment, and compensates for it in real-time.
Do I Need FTT?
In a vast number of tracking environments, there is not enough metal present to cause electromagnetic distortion.
Additionally, when using electromagnetics, there are typically work arounds, such as tip offset methods, or the option to make changes to the environment itself, that allows for a steady stream of distortion-free data.
If your application lacks these types of work arounds, or you just want an even easier way to ensure your tracking performance, turn on FTT. Let FTT engage, sense the distortion, and apply a mitigating correction in real-time.

Liverpool FC want to sign Thomas Lemar as a replacement for Philippe Coutinho and could make it happen this month, according to reports in the British media.
The Daily Mirror is reporting that the Reds are keen to try and sign the 22-year-old France international, who they were heavily linked with a move for in the summer.
Lemar has been in decent form for Monaco so far this season, scoring two goals and making four assists in 13 Ligue 1 games for the Reds.
Liverpool FC are believed to be on the lookout for attacking reinforcements this month after they reluctantly agreed to sell Coutinho to Barcelona in a deal reported to be worth around £145m.
The same report says that Jurgen Klopp has identified Monaco star Lemar as his number one target to replace Coutinho at Anfield.
The story claims that Monaco have made it clear that they do not want to lose Lemar in the January transfer window, but Liverpool FC are poised to test their resolve given any sort of encouragement.
The Reds have already made their first signing of the January transfer window after landing defender Virgil van Dijk in a big-money deal from Southampton at the start of the month.


I get the Merriam-Webster Word Of The Day sent to my email and this was the word for yesterday.
According to an old custom in the British Isles, the first Monday of the New Year is Handsel Monday, a day to give a small gift or good luck charm to children or to those who have served you well. As long ago as the 13th century, English speakers were using the ancestor of handsel in the context of omens and luck, eventually leading to the meaning of a good luck charm given to one at the start of some new situation or condition. By the 18th century, traders were using handsel for the first cash they earned in the morning—to them, an omen of good things to follow. Nowadays, it can also be used for something that gives a taste of things to come.
That's new to me but I love the idea of Handsel Monday.
I love learning how things, like a good luck charm, came to exsist!
How interesting! I never heard of Handsel Monday before.
Me either, but I don't think many people have.
Have never heard of Handsel Monday nor knew of Hansel as anything other than a character in a fairytale. You live and you learn.
I never heard of Handsel Monday either. You're teaching us new things, Thank you!


The year Chaz spent as Crimewriter in Residence on Sunderland's Sculpture Project was unexpected in many ways; and it continues to bring new surprises. He never, for example, expected to find himself in a comic strip: yet here he is, drawn by and conversing with Bryan Talbot in Alice in Sunderland .
Sunderland! Thirteen hundred years ago it was the greatest centre of learning in the whole of Christendom and the very cradle of English consciousness. In the time of Lewis Carroll it was the greatest shipbuilding port in the world. To this city that gave the world the electric light bulb, the stars and stripes, the millennium, the Liberty Ships and the greatest British dragon legend came Carroll in the years preceding his most famous book, Alice in Wonderland , and here are buried the roots of his surreal masterpiece. Enter the famous Edwardian palace of varieties, The Sunderland Empire, for a unique experience: an entertaining and epic meditation on myth, history and storytelling and decide for yourself - does Sunderland really exist?
From Bryan Talbot, the acclaimed creator of The Adventures of Luther Arkwright and The Tale of One Bad Rat , comes Alice in Sunderland , a graphic novel unlike any other. Funny and poignant, thought-provoking and entertaining, traditional and experimental, whimsical and polemical, Alice in Sunderland is a heady cocktail of fact and fiction, a sumptuous and multi-layered journey that will leave you wondering about the magic that's waiting to be unlocked in the place where you live.
The book includes a multi-page sequence in which Chaz and sculptor Colin Wilbourn walk the Pilgrim, one of the figures representing the author, through the sequence of sculptures, and talk about the project, the story of the area, prose and poetry and much more. It is based on an actual walk in which the conversation was recorded, so it's the next best thing to being guided through the sculptures by Chaz himself.
The project's all about tying past and present together, linking what's new with what was here before.

Winning in Pet Care
Pets and Millennials, purr-fect together
Expanding pet offerings may help attract the elusive Millennial shopper
Michael Browne | Mar 29, 2018
If supermarkets are interested in increasing their sales of pet products, they would be wise to expand their offering beyond food and kitty litter. And, along the way, they could build relationships with Millennials — who are now the largest pet-owning demographic, with 35% of pets owned by Millennials, according to the American Pet Products Association.
For retailers, the $69.4 billion pet industry offers a significant opportunity to reach this Millennial pet-obsessed generation, according to a new report from e-commerce retailer Zulily. Looking at shoppers as a whole, 42% of pet spending was on pet food in 2016 and a whopping $14.7 billion was spent on items such as beds, collars, leashes, toys, travel items, clothing, food and water bowls and other accessories. (Based on figures from Market Insights, there are currently 45 million dog owners and 30 million cat owners in the United States.)
Young consumers think differently about what is essential when purchasing products, notes the report, which says, "Millennials will buy discretionary products under the guise that they are non-discretionary." So it may not be a surprise that 92% of Millennial pet owners purchase gifts for their pets, such as toys, clothing and treats. While birthdays, Christmas and Hanukkah are popular occasions to buy gifts for a pet, more than half (51%) buy their pets a gift at least once a month. Men, however, are the more generous gifters, with 55% purchasing gifts for their pets once a month or more, compared to 47% of women. On average, Millennials who buy their pets gifts on a monthly basis do so four times a month.
Of course, like all shopping these days, supermarkets, pet stores and other retail outlets will have to compete with online retailing, which has built a firm niche in the category. Just over three-quarters (77%) of Millennial pet owners prefer to buy certain items online rather than a brick-and-mortar retailer, and top purchases include toys (40%), accessories (32%) and pet food (31%).
"Younger shoppers are quite discerning when it comes to the products they consider good enough for their pets," said Nathan Richter, senior partner at Wakefield Research. "Whether it's food or clothing and accessories, their preferences differ depending on whether they are shopping at large versus small retailers, or online versus in-person. This is not the generation that is looking for one-stop-shop convenience, so retailers need to be sure they have an optimal mix of high-quality and specialty products."

A great number of people suffer from low back pain (LBP). Not only is it one of the main causes of sick leave, but also it impairs daily activities for many people who could be having a very active domestic and social life, as well as plenty of leisure activities, if it was not for a terrible backache that keeps preventing it, to the point of restraining them to a wheelchair or to their bed.
WHY IS MY BACK PAINFUL?
LBP may arise due to many different causes, such as muscle stress or abdominal lesions, but the source of the pain may also be the spine, intervertebral discs, or even lesions to the spinal cord or its branches.
In the younger patients (20-40 years old) the origin is usually an intervertebral disc degeneration with or without disc herniation. They are patients with a low back pain that increases when they bend forward, and that may spread to the buttocks or back side of the thigh. When there is a disc herniation, the pain spreads further, reaching the feet. In older patients (60-80 years old), on the other hand, LBP is usually due to a facet joint hypertrophy and/or lumbar canal stenosis. Both refer to excessive growth of normal vertebral bone (chronic arthritis), with subsequent narrowing and rubbing that damage neighbouring nerves, thus inducing the pain. The key point is to diagnose the cause, for each medical condition requires a specific treatment, and it is not infrequent for patients to show a mixed pain, caused by both facet joint hypertrophy and intervertebral degeneration.
WHAT ARE THE TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR A DISC HERNIATION?
Treatment techniques are becoming less and less aggressive. The latest techniques for disc herniations are chemonucleolysis, micro-discectomy and disc endoscopy.
Chemonucleolysis involves injecting into the herniated disc a substance, named chemopapain, which destroys it. Though it can be performed under local anaesthesia only, the chemopapain injection is quite painful and so it is usually preferred to have an anaesthesiologist give the patient the adequate analgesics under a strict control of their vital signs.
Ozone injection involves injecting ozone gas into the herniated disc and into the surrounding muscles, helping to reduce the swelling of the irritated nerve route and, with it, the patient's pain. This treatment is not always effective, but, when it is, it avoids having to apply more aggressive treatments.
Microsurgery involves the removal of the herniated disc with the help of a surgical microscope, through a 1.5cm incision.
The disc is extracted through endoscopy, using one or two narrow tubes connected to a video camera and several working channels to introduce the necessary equipment.
After a chemonucleolysis, admission into a hospital for 24 hours is, though not strictly necessary, strongly recommended due to the possible adverse drug reactions. After an endoscopic surgery or microsurgery, the patient is usually discharged the next day.
MY LBP DOES NOT RESPOND TO DRUGS OR PHYSIOTHERAPY. WHAT CAN I DO?
Older patients usually have isolated LBP without accompanying leg pain, and its usual origin is excessive growth of vertebral bone that produces narrowing and rubbing in neighbouring nerves, thus inducing pain. Many patients can start having a facet joint denervation. It is an outpatient procedure which involves lesioning the small nerves that provide sensory supply to the facet joint that is being rubbed. A needle is introduced in the back and RF is then applied to destroy these nerves. The result can last from some months to several years, and can be repeated if needed.
In other cases it is necessary to have a lumbar postero-lateral arthrodesis plus reshaping of the lumbar canal. This surgery involves drilling out the arthosic bone which is rubbing the nerves, and the stabilisation of the vertebrae with a metal framework (arthrodesis) which will hold the vertebrae in place while the bone grafts are consolidated (this takes about a year). Arthrodesis is a long surgery (4-5 hours) which is usually performed with the patient lying face down. Some patients cannot remain in this position for long, perhaps due to obesity, cardiovascular and respiratory problems, etc., so they are considered high-risk patients and they are usually refused for surgery in other centres. In many cases, one solution is to perform the procedure with the patient lying on their side. This position requires greater surgical skill and makes the procedure some 30 minutes longer, but also reduces the possibility of complications and allows this surgery to be performed in patients who would otherwise have been condemned to be treated only with medication and physiotherapy.
In other cases the problem is disc degeneration, and surgical treatment will involve insert a expanding screws or a discal prosthesis to replace the disc. This procedure is significantly less aggressive than the lumbar postero-lateral arthrodesis and has a much faster recovery. The patient is usually discharged 24-48 hours after the procedure, largely due to having moderate pain. The size of the incision is small, so this helps reducing the pain.
This procedure is usually painful for the first 48 hours, so the anaesthesiologist will provide special treatments, apart from usual analgesics, such as intrathecal analgesia and PCA pump.
Intrathecal analgesia involves injecting a strong analgesic into the patient's thecal sac, which surrounds the spinal cord, before the lumbar postero-lateral arthrodesis is started. The effects will start 6 hours after the administration and last for 30 hours, providing the patient with great comfort in the first 2 days, which are the worst of the postoperative period.
The other option is the administration of analgesics through the PCA pump. The PCA pump is connected to a vein and consists of a small computer with a button and a saline infusion containing the analgesics. When the button is pressed, the analgesics are administered. There is no danger of overdose because appropriate limits, established using the patient's weight and age and the surgery performed on them, are programmed into the computer.
After a lumbar postero-lateral arthrodesis, the patient is usually discharged on the 2nd or 3rd day, depending on the number of operated levels, on how well the surgery has gone, and on how the patient's body is recovering from the surgery. If the procedure is carried out percutaneously, recovery is much faster, and so the patient will usually be ready for hospital discharge 48 hours after the intervention.
The most frequent complication is bleeding, which might require a blood transfusion to be carried out. This can be avoided by performing the arthrodesis percutaneously.
If you wish so, you can be you own donor (autotransfusion) so long as you inform us at least 5 weeks before the operation. We would need to extract blood from you once a week for 4 weeks, and you would need to take medication that promotes the production of blood in your body.
If you do not wish to be transfused, not even with your own blood, as happens with Jehovah witnesses, you must also inform us weeks before the procedure to be able to prepare your body for it. In this case the anaesthesiologist will inform you in detail about what you need to do and about the medical conditions required for the procedure.
Other possible, but less frequent, complications are those derived from the position of the patient (lying face down) in a prolonged amount of time, mainly cardiac, lung or nerve compression problems. Nevertheless, both the surgeon and anaesthesiologist will, of course, reduce the possibilities of complications, and start treating them as soon as they appear.
The results of the surgical treatment of disc herniations are usually highly satisfactory once the procedure is finished: once the origin of the pain (the hernia) is removed, the pain usually disappears. There can, however, remain some low back bother of variable magnitude.
Facet joint denervation is a procedure whose results are only temporary, lasting between 6 months and various years. Its objective is to delay the lumbar postero-lateral arthrodesis in patients who are not so old.
The lumbar postero-lateral arthrodesis also has highly satisfactory long-term results, with pain relief for years. In some patients, after progression of their arthritis, this condition affects the vertebrae above and below the operated level and so they may start to hurt. This problem is usually solved with a facet joint denervation, but occasionally it may be necessary to repeat the surgical procedure, removing the previous material and inserting a new arthrodesis in more levels.
Expanding screws, used in some arthrodeses, have usually very good results in the majority of patients, but cannot avoid the degeneration of neighbouring discs.
The key point in low back pain is a precise medical history registration and thorough clinical examination that leads to an accurate diagnosis and, with it, an appropriate treatment.

Eduard 1/48 Early F4F-3 early.
Eduard's new F4F-3 kit and it's pretty nice. Not too many fit issues and almost all the options to build any -3. The biggest issue I had, understanding that I'm an average modeler, was the engine to fuselage. There are just two tabs, one left and one right, and when you attach the engine it tends to swivel up & down. I added a third tab to help me out. The landing gear is a bit fragile so be careful removing it from the sprue. The windscreen did not fit right and needed some filing. If you plan on doing the 'Yellow wings' version you'll need to fill the two panel lines on either side of the cowl and scribe a line, one on each side, midway down the cowl. I'm kind of surprised Eduard missed that as they do give you the clips, in photo etch, for that cowl. I'm not a fan of Eduards new decals but what are ya gonna do. I used a mix of Eduard, CAM and YellowWings decals and Tamiya paints for the finish. All in all it's a great kit and since the F4F-3 is one of my favorites.....I picked up 3 more.

Quarter of people don't check truth of articles they see on social media, Ofcom finds
Assange's lawyer says fresh allegations part of 'relentless pursuit' by US posing threat to journalists
'Journalism has risen to the challenge' - HSJ editor Alastair McLellan on covering coronavirus
By Dominic Ponsford Twitter
"It started, I suppose, with NHS England trying to kill me."
Thus begins Health Service Journal editor Alastair McLellan's telling of his publication's extraordinary journey through the coronavirus pandemic.
In memoriam: Remembering journalism industry colleagues who died of Covid-19
Media trends survey: Three out of four news leaders say subscriptions will be key in 2021
Midland News Association turnover fell 10% in 2019 - but Covid hit not as bad as feared
From being a niche B2B website for health service leaders with a readership of around 10,000 per week, it has at times had more than 250,000 readers online at one moment.
It has become compulsive reading for anyone seriously interested in how the UK has been fighting coronavirus.
McLellan spoke to Press Gazette via Zoom (see video below) from his home and said he does not plan to go back to the newsroom any time soon.
"I have no intention of going back into the office until they start producing a vaccine. I will obviously on the odd occasion. But one thing the team have proven is we can do our jobs working from home almost just as well.
"What has been challenging is not having face-to-face meetings with contacts and going to conferences – but it hasn't been not being in the office."
It was in early March when, as he flippantly puts it, NHS England tried to kill him.
"I was talking to one of the senior figures in NHS England and I said what about this Covid stuff – is it that serious? He said, you go off on holiday to Italy and we'll talk about it when you come back."
We now know that at that stage the disease was widely transmitted throughout Italy
By the middle of March, McLellan says, it became obvious how serious the crisis was: "What I think we did do well is realise how fast we needed to move."
At that time the HSJ made two bold decisions. Firstly, the entire editorial and research team of 30 were devoted to covering the pandemic. And secondly, the title dropped its paywall.
This latter decision was not to be taken lightly given that HSJ has doubled its subscription revenue over the last decade and this now accounts for half of its income. The other half, events, has been torpedoed by the pandemic.
McLellan says: "I knew that the coverage we do would be at least as good as you can get anywhere else because I have the scale of people to throw at it and because those people are very good. I thought this is a global emergency so we are just going to drop the paywall completely."
How did owners Wilmington plc take to that?
"Ask for forgiveness and not permission, the watchwords for any good editor. Of course the move had the support of my lords and masters, the fact I was able to show them massive support within our sector for the move helped me do that. I'd like to pay tribute to our owners who saw the sense in what we did and backed us."
After keeping access open during April and May, HSJ began putting more content behind a registration barrier – which has served as a useful lead-gathering tool for subscription sales. The plan is now to move back to a fully paywalled model.
He says: "I didn't think we had any choice to do it because I think we would have been so criticised if we hadn't done it."
Health Service Journal's role in covering the pandemic was praised in a recent speech by former Channel 4 head of news and current affairs Dorothy Byrne for Oxford University. It has also won plaudits from industry figures including Today presenteer Nick Robinson and Spectator editor Fraser Nelson.
Asked what he is most proud of, McLellan says: "I think the most important stuff we've done is we've just covered it in so much detail, day in, day out.
"Almost anything that was significant you read about it in HSJ first – whether it be testing concerns, excess deaths, PPE – you name it, we covered it first.
"The best thing for me out of this whole thing is how some really great journalists whose work is known in the NHS at a senior level – lots and lots of people have seen it. They've had proper recognition for the quality of their journalism.
"In terms of specific stories, we have done a lot on the fact the government is playing fast and loose with statistics. It was our coverage that led to the UK Statistics Authority writing to Matt Hancock telling him to clean up his act.
"They've just announced they are going to end the shielding programme for vulnerable people. We revealed that a week ago to HSJ readers. There are many more examples."
HSJ was the first specialist title to be asked, by Lobby journalists, to join the panel asking questions on the daily NHS media briefing.
Asked what he makes of coverage of the pandemic by the mainstream media, he says: "I would say this period has been a good one for British journalism. We have all been given a good chunky subject and I think British journalism has risen to the challenge. People have educated themselves about pandemics and healthcare systems and not done sensationalist work.
"I think there was a little too much swallowing of the line that the government was following the 'science'. There isn't such a thing as the 'science' people disagree with each other all the time and scientists get things wrong. They clearly got things wrong on the advice they gave to government early on."
McLellan's response to the news that those daily briefings have stopped is to the point: "Hurrah… They've outlived their usefulness by some way."
Government media handling nothing like as controlling as New Labour years
What does he think in general about the government's media response and the complaint from journalists that there has been a lack of transparency?
"Show me a situation where journalists think the government has ever been as transparent as it should be. The government got themselves into a situation where they needn't have to, by setting the 100,000 tests target for example, and then realising they couldn't meet the target and then playing fast and loose with the figures.
"I think this government has been pretty transparent about the way it has gone about tackling the coronavirus pandemic.
"We've written loads of negative and potentially damaging stories and I've not had anyone ring me up and bend my ear over it. We've got remember this is a government which designated journalists as key workers – we could send our kids to school.
"This was nothing like the New Labour years."
The economic fallout of the pandemic has already led to hundreds of job losses in the journalism industry and many titles closing altogether. How does the future of journalism look for HSJ?
As far as healthcare goes, he says: "There's going be a lot of money around and there's going to be change. And that's a good environment for information intelligence providers to operate in…
"At HSJ we've always put journalism at the heart of what we do. Our view is investigative journalism is the best way to understand a subject and build context. This allows us to produce big breaking stories and in-depth analytical pieces which we sell for four-figure sums in terms of subscriptions and that has been the secret of HSJ's success.
"For some sectors we are about to go through a boom. The government is not going to cut spending and it is very difficult for it to raise taxes.
"There will be winners and losers, but in certain sectors there's a real opportunity for people to provide good quality information and intelligence. Done the right way good quality journalism can be absolutely at the heart of that."

All true, just as Green County, settled in the mid-1800s by Swiss immigrant farmers, remains true to its ethnic heritage. It is a land with more dairy animals (62,000) than people (37,000), 50 milk cows per square mile and at least 136 barns decorated with colorful quilt squares.
This year's Green County Cheese Days, Sept. 19-21, happens 100 years after the inaugural event. That means 100 kids will play kazoos in the children's parade and 100 antique mustache cups will be shown at a local museum.
One hundred accordionists will play "Come to Cheese Days," the event's anthem, with the Monroe City Band.
"Come to Cheese Days in Monroe/ That's the place for you to go/ Music, dancing, yodeling too/ And a big parade for you."
That's how the song has gone since 1965. Why sing it with accordions? The instrument is popular in Swiss folk music, and every third Tuesday of the month is Squeezebox Night, a jam session at Monroe's Turner Hall.
"We have talked about this for at least 10 years," Cheese Days Queen Diane Phillips said of the upcoming centennial event. She and her husband, Cheese Days King Duke, began their reign 10 months ago and are kept busy as goodwill ambassadors.
Green County Cheese Days began in 1914, after locals noticed the success of a sauerkraut festival in Forreston, Ill., about 37 miles straight south. (Yes, that festival still exists, but you missed it; it was Aug. 2.) In 1914, Monroe volunteers served 13,000 cheese sandwiches to a crowd of 4,000; the next year, 20,000 attended, including the governor.
Sky divers, snake charmers, Swiss wrestlers, camels, trick ponies, jitterbug contests and miles-long parades have come and gone during the celebrations since then.
Now the event draws 100,000 visitors, around 10 times Monroe's population, and they nibble cheese by the ton. It will be eaten by the cold cube and grilled sandwich, paired with chocolate and beer.

Some will wait an hour to buy a basket of hot, beer-battered and stringy cheese curds from the Monroe Optimists Club. First you wait in line to buy a ticket. Then you wait in line for the greasy goods.
"If you can find a better deep-fried cheese curd than the Monroe Optimists make, I want to know about it," said Stephanie Klett, Wisconsin's tourism secretary, a former Miss Wisconsin and this year's Limburger Queen.
Limburger, a soft and stinky cheese from Belgium that Klett prefers to describe as "wildly assertive," is manufactured in only one place in North America: Chalet Cheese Co-op in Monroe.
The pungent product is wrapped in paper, then foil. The customary way to eat it is on rye with a slice of raw onion and a dollop of zesty mustard, which is the way Limburger is served all year at Baumgartner's, a popular bar/restaurant/cheese store downtown.
At Cheese Days, the timid but curious can begin with a Limburger slider.

"Since its odor is out of this world, I promise to personally smell nice," Klett offered before assuming her role of royalty.
You could argue that nobody loves cheese more in Wisconsin than these Cheese Days people in Green County, 30 miles northwest of Rockford.
The 12 creameries produce about 50 of the state's 600 kinds of cheese, and 13 of the country's 60 master cheesemakers (advanced certification through European-inspired training) work here.
Bruce Workman of Edelweiss Creamery, 10 miles north of Monroe, is a master cheesemaker for 11 kinds of cheese. That includes Swiss Emmenthaler, and nobody else in the U.S. makes it in 180-pound wheels.
"You make cheese at least 10 years before entering the master cheesemaker program," noted Ben Brancel, Wisconsin's secretary of agriculture.

Though cheese is the headliner for Monroe's three-day festival, it's also an opportunity to show off all that is Swiss. That means buttery Bratzeli cookies (similar to the Italians' pizzelle), demos of chip carving (to make intricately ornate wooden items), Swiss dancing, yodeling and music by Aarelander Musikanten, a brass band from Switzerland.
Add polkas by Barefoot Becky, accordion music by the Squeezettes and a Bier Garte with selections from the two hometown suds-makers: New Glarus Brewing Co. and Minhas Craft Brewery.
Kids will make houses with cheese instead of gingerbread. Festival royalty will genuflect to a timed cow-milking contest.
"The city's here to do its best, and we're going to put on one heck of a show," said Ross, mayor since the 1990s and whey plant manager for an area cheese manufacturer.
He said there used to be a cheese factory "at almost every crossroad; we had 300 in our heyday," but the 12 remaining produce more cheese than ever. That's why cheesemakers will be introduced during opening ceremonies.

A final word about the event: Expect a crowd and lines. But also expect beer, cheese and polka. If those don't assuage your wait time, nothing will.

Citation Success: Evidence from Economic History Journal Publications
Författare: Gianfranco Di Vaio, Daniel Waldenström och Jacob WeisdorfÅr: 2012 Publikation: Explorations in Economic History Årgång (nr): 49 (1) Sidor: 92–104
This study examines the determinants of citation success among authors who have recently published their work in economic history journals. Besides offering clues about how to improve one's scientific impact, our citation analysis also sheds light on the state of the field of economic history. Consistent with our expectations, we find that full professors, authors appointed at economics and history departments, and authors working in Anglo-Saxon and German countries are more likely to receive citations than other scholars. Long and co-authored articles are also a factor for citation success. We find similar patterns when assessing the same authors' citation success in economics journals. As a novel feature, we demonstrate that the diffusion of research — publication of working papers, as well as conference and workshop presentations — has a first-order positive impact on the citation rate.

- About -
1976 - In October 1976, Peter Reith, initiated discussions for a secondary College to be built on Phillip Island. Reverend John Leaver also saw the possibility for the establishment of a school which upheld Christian values to be built at Newhaven on Phillip Island. He was invited to discuss the concept with a group of interested persons, who then formed a committee and laid plans for a school.
1977 - A public meeting, chaired by Mr W.G. Papworth, was held with in April with approximately 350 people attending. The Plans and Articles of Foundation were adopted, and a steering committee was elected.
1979 - The Mission of St James and St John agreed to sell four and a half acres of land, adjacent to its St. Paul's Discovery Centre, now more commonly known as the Boys Home Road Campus. At the same time, the Education Department agreed to give the Co-operative two portable classrooms. Plans were made for the erection of an administration building and in August 1979, advertisements were placed in the major daily papers for a Founding Principal. In due course, Mr Frank Moore was appointed.

2001 - The Auditorium was officially opened on Foundation Day by the reverend John Leaver AO, Chief Executive Officer of the Victorian Ecumenical System of Schools. The College purchased additional land which included a block adjacent to the primary school in Malcliff Road. This allowed the extension of the playing area for the younger students. In Term 1 the school purchased 20 acres of land about five minutes from the school on the south side of Phillip Island Road.
2002 - Year 3 and 4 students commenced at the College. Work commenced on the new Technology Centre and The Pines playing field.
