From 'Eternals' to 'Ghostbusters' and 'West Side Story,' a lot is happening on the big screen
Fall feels a lot like summer when it comes to movies.
During more normal times, big comic book and sci-fi thrillers would land in theaters during the summer, but the pandemic has thrown off cinematic schedules.
The good news for fans is that big-screen excitement is continuing until the end of the year, as demonstrated during this weekend with Angelina Jolie starring in Marvel Studios' "Eternals." The movie is set after "Avengers: Endgame," and there will be no plot spoilers.
There'll be more Marvel fun when "Spider-Man: No Way Home" brings back Alfred Molina, who played Doctor Octopus in "Spider-Man II" (2004) starring Tobey Maguire, as the same villain.
Another big name in the film is Benedict Cumberbatch, whose Doctor Strange is helping Spider-Man (Tom Holland), maybe a little more than he should. The trailers make it clear that chaos will prevail, and it looks like it will be a fun ride.
Also coming up is "Ghostbusters: Afterlife," set in the original "Ghostbusters" universe, sort of a "Ghostbusters: The Next Generation."
Another sci-fi franchise is back as well. Keanu Reeves stars in "The Matrix Resurrections."
There are surprises too. This writer never thought anyone would try to remake "West Side Story," the 1961 masterpiece from directors Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise. You'd have to be someone on the caliber of, say, Steven Spielberg to try something like that.
Well, Mr. Spielberg has done just that. He directed the new version, which features Rita Moreno from the 1961 film and a new cast in the roles that Ms. Moreno, Natalie Wood, Richard Beymer and Russ Tamblyn made immortal in the 1961 film.
Now it's Ansel Elgort, Rachel Zegler, Ariana DeBose and David Alvarez in those roles in this adaptation of the Broadway musical, inspired by Shakespeare's "Romeo & Juliet."
Once again, it's the story of forbidden love between two rival New York City gangs, the Jets and the Sharks, instead of Shakespeare's Montagues and Capulets.
By the way, the remake is scheduled to be in theaters Dec. 10, the day before Ms. Moreno's 90th birthday.
Here's the schedule of movies for the rest of this year.
"Eternals." Angelina Jolie stars in the latest superhero film from Marvel Studios.
"Belfast." The talented Kenneth Branagh is the director and writer of this story about a young boy (Jude Hill as Buddy) and his family in the late 1960s. The cast includes the legendary Judi Dench.
"Ghostbusters: Afterlife." This is set in the original "Ghostbusters" universe, where a single mother and her kids discover their connection with the original band of four. The film stars Finn Wolfhard, McKenna Grace and Carrie Coon. And back for the ride are original stars Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson. The director is Jason Reitman, son of original "Ghostbusters" director and former Montecito resident Ivan Reitman.
"King Richard."
"House of Gucci." Lady Gaga stars in this story covering three decades of love, betrayal and murder. Directing is none other than Ridley Scott.
"Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City."
"Encanto."
"Nightmare Alley."
"West Side Story."
"Spider-Man: No Way Home." Fans have waited a long time for some resolution to the cliff hanger from the last "Spider-Man" movie in which the world learned Spider-Man is Peter Parker. What's next? Well, for one thing, Peter (Tom Holland) is talking to Dr. Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch).
"The Matrix Resurrections." Keneau Reeves returns in the latest film in the long-running franchise that turns reality into a big puzzle.
"The King's Man." Ralph Fiennes stars in this prequel to the spy franchise. This time the story's set in the early 20th century when a world-saving agency of well-dressed, well-mannered spies is just beginning. Get out your umbrellas.
"Sing 2."
"A Journal for Jordan."
"American Underdog." Zachary Levi, who grew up in Ventura, stars as Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner. The cast also includes Anna Paquin and Dennis Quaid.

It's an annually occurring juxtaposition. Every December I wrap up my reading plan chewing on the death of Jesus at a time of year when so much around me draws my attention to His birth.
Solomon said that "for everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven" and that one of those things is "a time to be born, and a time to die" (Eccl. 3:1-2). True for every man and woman. True too for the One who divested Himself of His heavenly glory and power, and determined to fully enter into the human experience. There was a time for Jesus to be born. And, by the Father's will, a time for Jesus to die.
Though it was the same Jesus, and though the two events were only 33 years apart, in so many ways so many things had changed so dramatically. The anticipation of that silent night giving way to the condemnation of an angry crowd early one morning. The loud song of an angelic host before lowly shepherds, giving glory to God and declaring the birth of a Savior in the city of David, silenced by shouts of "Crucify Him, crucify Him" by stiff-necked chief priests and officers before the most powerful man in Jerusalem.
The Son of God lying in a manager receiving gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh from worshiping wise men, a faint memory as the Lamb of God hung on a cross and was offered but sour wine by indifferent soldiers who just wanted to get the job over with.
But one thing hadn't changed. One thing is strikingly similar between the idyllic scene around the manger and the chaotic circus around the cross. The mother of Jesus was nearby.
Oh the contrast between the image evoked by the multiple nativity scenes set up in my home and the picture formed in my mind's eye as I read in John this morning. The first of a peace filled virgin. Cradling her son as she meditates on angel declared prophecies and shepherd delivered messages. Treasuring up all these things, "pondering them in her heart" (Lk. 2:19). The other of a distraught mother, looking with horror on her derided, naked, and beaten son. Trying to make sense of everything He had told them as she watched Him die.
See Him as the Light of the world come to deliver men from darkness. But know that, though He came to His own, His own received Him not. Marvel that the King of kings should come into the world in such lowly manner, and then try and make sense of the darkness that compelled His people to declare they would have no king but Caesar.
Wonder at the Savior born that night, lying in a manger, the hope of the world. Try and comprehend Him suffering as He hung on a cross, the Lamb of God, slain as the final sin offering, the once for all Atonement for the world.
She was there that holy night. She was there that horrific morning.
And Jesus saw her. And He knew her.
Born by her, He would die for her.
The grace of God incarnate. The glory of God manifest.

Borissov's GERB has 25.7% per cent support, the Bulgarian Socialist Party 19.6% – poll
Written by The Sofia Globe staff on June 26, 2017 in Bulgaria - Comments Off on Borissov's GERB has 25.7% per cent support, the Bulgarian Socialist Party 19.6% – poll
A few months after Bulgaria's March 2017 early parliamentary elections, Prime Minister Boiko Borissov's centre-right GERB party has 25.7 per cent support and Kornelia Ninova's opposition Bulgarian Socialist Party 19.6 per cent, according to a poll by Alpha Research.
The poll, done in conjunction with television station Nova Televizia, was carried out between June 12 and 22 among 1024 adult Bulgarians, through direct interviews at their homes.
The Alpha Research poll found that in third place were the nationalist United Patriots (6.3 per cent), followed by the opposition Movement for Rights and Freedoms (5.2 per cent). In the current National Assembly, the United Patriots is the third-largest parliamentary group and the MRF the fourth-largest.
According to the poll, Vesselin Mareshki's populist Volya party – which is Parliament's smallest group, with 12 MPs – is just below the four per cent threshold for election to the National Assembly, at 3.7 per cent.
The centre-right Reformist Bloc has 2.7 per cent, Hristo Ivanov's pro-judicial reform Yes Bulgaria 1.5 per cent, and right-wing splinter party New Republic 0.6 per cent.
Of those polled, 5.4 per cent were shared among various other parties, while 29.3 per cent of respondents said that they would not vote.
According to Alpha Research, the BSP's failure to win the March early elections, and internal tensions in the party, were putting a halt to the electoral support gains that the party made after socialist-backed Roumen Radev's victory in the November 2016 presidential elections.
There were notable differences in approval of the three co-leaders of the United Patriots, the grouping of far-right and ultra-nationalist parties that is the minority partner in the third Borissov government.
Krassimir Karakachanov had the most support, 28 per cent, while Valeri Simeonov had 13 per cent and Volen Siderov just less than seven per cent.
Support for the MRF was stable, as was that for its leader Mustafa Karadaya, six per cent.
Confidence in Mareshki's party – which campaigned ahead of the election on a platform of decreased fuel and pharmacy prices, businesses in which Mareshki specialises – was gradually dropping, the Alpha Research poll found.
Support for the right-wing and reformist parties that failed to gain seats in the March elections – the Reformist Bloc, Yes Bulgaria and New Republic – was remaining unchanged, meaning that if elections were held now, none would win seats.

Q: How do https stacks handle failed links when there are multiple A records? I have setup DNS entries so that a certain FQDN has four A records, with four IPv4 addresses of four networks boxes converging thru a router to a single https server. That does load balancing across the boxes.
I'm worried about what happens if a network box goes down. The DNS resolution mechanism will return IPv4 addresses even if the link is down. I read here that (trimmed)

pretty much every browser receive the full list of A records, and check others if the one it is using fails.

which is fine. But my server provides a web service: it's clients are typically not web browsers. I know one uses libcurl under Linux Centos 7, but there could be others.
How would various https stacks (including but not limited to the above) handle a failed link (as in network box powered down or its line severed)?

A: Any application querying DNS records receives all the results. How they are handled depends on the application, it can try the first, a fixed number, or all of them.
Most applications should try all records, but if it is important to you, you should verify yourself. Just setup a DNS name that points to some addresses that don't respond, then try to access that name and see how many of the addresses are tried, andhow long the timeout is.

White supremacist accused of murder says he came to NYC to kill blacks
By Shawn Cohen, Tina Moore, Larry Celona and Lia Eustachewich
March 22, 2017 | 12:40pm | Updated March 22, 2017 | 10:49pm
James Harris Jackson, suspected in the stabbing death of Timothy Caughman, served four years in the Army. Matthew McDermott
A fame-seeking white supremacist came to New York to kill black people in the "media capital of the world" — and took out his race rage on a 66-year-old can collector, police said Wednesday.
Well-dressed suspect in fatal stabbing surrenders to cops
The sharp-dressed suspect wanted for fatally stabbing a 66-year-old man...
Army veteran James Harris Jackson, 28, took a Bolt Bus from Maryland on Friday to "target male blacks" in the city, said Assistant Chief William Aubry of Manhattan South Detectives.
He particularly didn't like black men who were romantically involved with white women, sources said.
"The reason why he picked New York is because it is the media capital of the world," Aubry said. "He wanted to make a statement."
Jackson, who served in the Army for four years, identifies as a white supremacist and told police he penned a manifesto about his racist views, the police sources said.
That screed, Jackson told police, contains information about an imminent attack on blacks in New York.
He said it is saved on a computer seized by the NYPD, but cops need a search warrant to look at it, the sources said.
Timothy CaughmanTwitter
Jackson used a 26-inch mini-sword to repeatedly stab Timothy Caughman in the chest and back as he was digging through the trash near the corner of Ninth Avenue and West 36th Street at about 11:30 p.m. Monday, according to Aubry.
A witness told police of hearing Caughman yell, "What are you doing? Get off me!" and saw Jackson on top of him.
After the stabbing, Caughman stumbled into the Midtown South station house for help while Jackson cleaned the blood off himself in a restaurant restroom, sources said.
Caughman died at a hospital.
The attack was "random" and "clearly racially motivated," Aubry said.
The well-dressed suspect turned himself in at an NYPD substation in Times Square shortly after midnight Wednesday — telling cops there he did so to avoid killing again, sources said.
Jackson, who was staying at The Hotel at Times Square on West 46th Street near Sixth Avenue, allegedly said he was set off by a black and white couple he had seen on the street.
Stabbing victim was autograph hound who loved celebrities
The man who was fatally stabbed in Midtown on Monday...
"I'm the man you're looking for," Jackson told cops, adding he had knives in his pocket, according to Aubry.
The accused killer also told police he ditched a weapon in Washington Square Park, sources said.
Jackson was charged with murder Wednesday.
He said nothing as he was hauled out of the station house in handcuffs and a white Tyvek protective suit.
Earlier on Monday, the suspect was caught on surveillance video "stalking" another black man near the location of the attack, walking closely behind the person but not acting out, the sources said.
"In the hours leading up to this, he was just wandering around, contemplating, trying to work up the nerve to attack someone," the source said.
On his Twitter profile, Caughman described himself as a "can and bottle recycler" and "autograph collector," and posted series of photos of himself with celebrities.
He had been living in a transitional home on West 36th Street between Eighth and Ninth avenues.
Jackson had been deployed to Afghanistan and Germany during his career as a private in the Army, according to sources. He was honorably discharged in 2012.

"We had our son and named our son Ash, which is my wife's maiden name. I can't picture a better way to honor what my wife did than naming him after her," the 42-year-old said. "The middle name is Olson, my mother's maiden name. To be able to name him after those two women..."

Helicopter Tour of Barbados – Barbados
Barbados helicopter tours are a great way to see the island. The nice thing about it is that tour operators offer different packages.
Location and How to Get to This Specific Site
Barbados is located to the northeast of Venezuela in the Caribbean. You can fly in and out by way of Sir Grantley Adams International Airport. You can also get there by boat. There are several cruise ships that service the island. From the terminal you can ride a taxi and go to your destination.
What to See There
Going on Barbados helicopter tours can be an exhilarating experience. From high above you will see the blue seas surrounding the island. The lush scenery below will also become evident. You can go on an aerial tour of the west and east coast of the island.
From here the guiles, plantation houses and sugar factories will be visible. You will also be able to see historic landmarks.
Most aerial tours allow you to take pictures or videotape the scenery. The pilot or another guide will explain to you the scenes unfolding before your eyes.
The island's earliest known settlers were the Saladoid-Barrancoid group. They came to the island in 350 AD by way of Venezuela's Orinoco Valley. They were made up of ceramists, fishermen and farmers. The next wave of settlers was the Arawak people c. 800 AD. Remains of their settlements can be found in Mapp's Cave, Saint Luke's Gully, Chandler Bay and Stroud Point.
According to the Arawak people, the island was originally known as Ichirouganaim. The 13th century saw the arrival of the Carbis. The word Barbados itself was given by Pedro Campos in 1536. He called it Los Barbados ("The Bearded Ones") due to its fig trees.
These tours cost at least 140 USD per person. This rate is for an adult. Individuals below 12 years of age are usually charged less. The length of the flight also influences the flight. Longer trips will cost more. Due to their popularity, advanced booking is recommended. Deposits are required in most cases.
Read the details before paying for the tour. Check the maximum passenger capacity. Some tours also require a minimum number of passengers onboard before taking off. Note also that cancellations have to be done at least 24 hours before the flight.
There are many Barbados helicopter tours; it is best to compare the offers before you decide which one to go with.

NASA Hands Out Contracts To Reduce Space Reliance On Russia
The U.S. space agency NASA has announced it has picked Boeing and SpaceX to transport astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS) in the next few years.
NASA Administrator Charles Bolden named the winners of the competition on September 16 at Kennedy Space Center, next door to where the launches should eventually take place.
The deal will end NASA's expensive and strategically awkward reliance on Russia to ferry astronauts to the space station.
U.S. astronauts have been riding Russian rockets ever since NASA retired its Space Shuttle program in 2011.
NASA has set a goal of 2017 for the first launch under the program.

People who laugh more may be better at dealing with stress
/ Mon, August 3, 2020 / 09:03 am
Illustration of people laughing. (Shutterstock/Monkey Business Images)
New European research has found that people who laugh more during stressful times appear to show less symptoms of stress.
Carried out by researchers at the University of Basel, the new study looked at 41 students (of whom 33 were women) with an average age of 21.
The participants were followed for a period of 14 days, during which time they were asked to answer questions eight times a day on a mobile phone which asked them about the frequency and intensity of laughter, their reason for laughing, and any stressful events or physical and psychological stress symptoms that they experienced throughout the day, such as "I had a headache" or "I felt restless".
The first thing that the researchers found, which was expected based on the current evidence, is that when the participants laughed frequently, any stressful events they experienced at the time were associated with more minor symptoms of stress. Moreover, the more frequently they laughed close to the time of experiencing stressful events, the weaker the link between the stressful events and stress symptoms became.
However, the team was surprised to find that when it came to the intensity of the laughter, defined as strong, medium, or weak, there was no statistically significant correlation with symptoms of stress.

"This could be because people are better at estimating the frequency of their laughter, rather than its intensity, over the last few hours," the researchers said.
They added that the findings, published in the journal PLOS ONE, suggest that people who laugh frequently in their everyday lives may be better able to deal with stressful events.
Previous studies have also shown that laughter can bring various health benefits. A US study published back in 2011 by the University of Maryland School of Medicine showed that watching a funny film can improve vascular function, while a UK study published the same year found that genuine belly laughter, rather than forced laughter or a small giggle, can help relieve pain.
As well as physical benefits, laughing together can also release the "feel-good" chemicals endorphins in the brain and promote social bonds between people, according to a 2017 study by researchers at the University of Turku, Finland.
Researchers have estimated that people typically laugh 18 times a day, mostly when they are with other people. How much we laugh also depends on the time of day, age, and gender; for instance, on average, women smile more than men.

"Is brown discharge normal after a hysterectomy?"
Zocdoc›Answers›Is brown discharge normal after a hysterectomy?
Last year I had a hysterectomy for uterine cancer. I'm 45, and I had no trouble healing after the procedure. But now, I'm starting to get this kind of brown discharge. Is this possibly connected with the hysterectomy, or am I looking at another kind of problem?
This is a really tough call. Vaginal discharge after hysterectomy can be one of several things and a qualified health care professional would need to evaluate it to be sure what it is and what is causing it. Brown discharge usually has a component of blood. In general it is normal to have a brown vaginal discharge (make up mostly of blood) between 4 and 6 weeks after a hysterectomy. It represents blood that may seep from the healing area of the vaginal cuff. In general, brown discharge is not seen after this time period and therefore your symptoms are abnormal warranting a visit to your OBGYN that performed the hysterectomy. If you had a hysterectomy without removal of the cervix, then it is possible that the discharge is coming from a small bleeding vessel in the cervix. It's impossible to tell without a pelvic exam. Since this is considered an abnormal finding, I suggest you schedule an appointment with the surgeon that performed the hysterectomy, or if that's not possible, then another OBGYN. Most likely, it's nothing to be concerned about, but you want to make sure you don't have anything up there that needs fixed. Good luck.

History-maker Ryan has only just begun after 'special moment'
Updated: January 2, 2019
http://www.sports247.my/v1/2019/01/history-maker-ryan-just-begun-special-moment">
Caltex Socceroos goalkeeper Mat Ryan said it was a 'special moment' to play his 50th cap for Australia, but insisted this is only the beginning of his hard work.
When Ryan started in goals against Oman, he became the youngest ever Australian player to reach 50 'A' International caps for the Caltex Socceroos in senior international fixtures — aged 26 years and 266 days.
The 26-year-old reflected on the achievement and his career thus far in the Green and Gold, but was hungrier than ever to kick on and bring success to the Caltex Socceroos.

CBK said in a bond prospectus published on Thursday that the bond would be issued in two tranches of five- and 10-year tenors, with the shorter paper likely to excite investors who have been clamouring for short tenor in recent months.
Last month, the Treasury was in the market for Sh40 billion in a two-year and 15-year bond issue, which received total bids of Sh101.97 billion with acceptances of Sh38.5 billion.
The Treasury is this month seeking Sh50 billion through bond issues, hoping to ride on the huge investor interest in last month's auction and a liquid money market.
Central Bank of Kenya said in a bond prospectus published on Thursday that the bond would be issued in two tranches of five- and 10-year tenors, with the shorter paper likely to excite investors who have been clamouring for short tenor in recent months.
The bond is on sale until February 19 and the rate is market determined.
The Treasury re-opened the paper for a four-day sale on January 31 with a target of Sh12 billion. The sale attracted bids of Sh66 billion with just Sh23.4 billion accepted.
"The February five- and 10-year issue is Sh10 billion higher than the usual auction size, which we believe is driven by the success seen in the January auction," said Genghis Capital in a market note. The sale comes at a time of high market liquid, with the interbank rate falling to 2.17 per cent on Wednesday from 5.45 per cent on Monday. Analysts at Commercial Bank of Africa in their latest weekly fixed income note said the heavy liquidity in the market is also helping the Treasury meet the goal of raising more funds from the domestic market while keeping yields low. So far in this fiscal year, CBA said, the government has raised Sh149 billion in new domestic debt, against a full-year target of Sh310 billion.
"Given that revenue performance remains below expectations, we expect the Treasury will be more tactical in ensuring successful fundraising with potential for more blended issues of shorter and longer term papers," said CBA. The ample demand for treasuries has also allowed the Treasury to cut significantly its outstanding overdraft at Central Bank, from Sh63.9 billion at the beginning of January to Sh37.6 billion by January 25.


It started off well enough though. I had my customary half day Friday again, which afforded me more than enough time to do some work for a change, like renew my cars licence, tidy up the flat, reseal my bath, etc. I even managed to complete Tomb Raider: Legend and start up some Shadow of Colossus. Chantelle and I were meant to go watch Hairspray in the evening, but we eventually got a little sidetracked and ended up missing it. No problem though, we had some nice things planned for the weekend, like a supper out with her friends and a big Sunday afternoon braai with all of mine.
All of which were wiped out by an early morning phone call from her boss, informing her that a group of twelve Italian cross country touring bikers were heading for the guesthouse. So drop all Saturday plans and start getting ready for their arrival. Oh and did I mention that it would be required that we take them out on a short tour Sunday too, so drop Sundays plans as well.
Much of Saturday afternoon was spent preparing the guesthouse for their arrival as well as making the necessary preparations for the big supper Chantelle was required to serve (which I managed to duck out of and ended up playing quite a bit of Shadow of Colossus – about 10 or 11 of the beasts down already!). Saturday evening I returned to the guesthouse to help out as Chantelle is a little short-staffed at the moment. So the rest of the evening was pretty much a washout (I mean that literally I did dishes for a huge part of the evening). Stupid Italians!
Sunday was a mission that involved us trying to organise the groups return of the rented BMW bikes, a short trip in the Kombi up Signal Hill and around Camps Bay and then herding the group off to the airport so that they can catch their flight. It was a little annoying really, because basically their tour guide dropped the lot off into Chantelles hands while he buggered off back to Johannesburg. Thank goodness Chantelle is more than capable of handline such situations it would seem must be her line of work then, because I would not be able to cope.
We managed to get everything done pretty smoothly in the end (apart from losing one of the Italians at Waterfront too bad we found him though) and we did at least manage to sneak out for a supper at the Silver Spur after they had finally gone, but the experience left Chantelle so pooped out that she hit the sack pretty much the minute we finally got home – leaving me to try and wile some of the hours away by watching Brainiac and some other kak that was on TV.

Q: Change Color TTF Text SDL C I've been trying to change the color of a TTF Text but I can't figure out how to do it.I have:
SDL_Color color_text = { 0, 0, 0 }; //Text color

SDL_Surface * surface = TTF_RenderText_Solid(font, "text text text text text ", color_text);

but It looks like a can't change the color in any way. I can store the color in another way if necessary and if possible.

A: In order to change any property of the text in question, you would need to render the text all over again.
Let's say you're starting with a black text, you would have this:
SDL_Color color_text = { 0, 0, 0 }; // Text color
SDL_Surface* surface = TTF_RenderText_Solid(font, "TEXT", color_text)

This would make "TEXT" black since { 0, 0, 0 } is the RGB code for black.
If you want to make it red, you can manipulate values, for example:
color_text.r = 255;
SDL_Surface* surface = TTF_RenderText_Solid(font, "TEXT", color_text)

This would make "TEXT" red because the rmember of color_text is set to 255, making color_text's members { 255, 0, 0 }, the RGB code for red.

Thanks for the orthotics. I'm off to Argentina!!
I buy a lot of shoes for grandkids and am wondering what shoe brands you recommend for 4 to 12-year-olds. I have bought Tsukihoshi shoes, but they wear away and fall apart fast when used by a kid who plays hard.
PS I hope the video below is a good reminder of several important general rules.
A Forefoot Valgus Cast sits Inverted on the countertop.
The edge of the box is vertical demonstrating the Inverted heel position of the cast.
When this type of cast is Root Balanced, the lateral column and the metatarsal arch gets great support.
Once the plaster dries, the cloth is removed. The inverted heel position is seen.
The forefoot is balanced initially with a nail.
Plaster is used to make a platform for balancing.
The platform will make a dramatic lateral and metatarsal arch.
Here the lateral arch is demonstrated.
Here the metatarsal area is shown lower than the platform, which will make a great metatarsal arch within the plastic.
I have a LLD structural of 9mm on the left leg as per a CT scan. This was found after I strained the hip rotators while squatting. The hip would not heal and I suffered at least 1.5 years of pain for a minor strain! I have also had pain when running to the joint of the big toe on the left foot foot. This was corrected with orthotics. I have a 6mm lift in my flip flops and work boots and this stops the issues with my hip (had the soles adjusted on my american heelers).
The problem I have is running when I put the 6mm lift in my running shoes ( hard plastic adjustable type ) this takes away the cushioning proved by the shoes that stop the pain in my joint of the big toe of the left foot. After 1/2 mile of running my joint of the big toe starts hurting. I have 2 pairs of orthotics from different podiatrists the first pair has no lift as this is what I asked for . I wanted to experiment with different lift heights. With a 6mm heel lift I can run without pain, but I get a over worked peroneus longus in the left lower leg.
I recently went to a new podiatrist in Hawaii as I just moved here . I don't have much faith in the new podiatrist as there was a lot of delays and excuses in delivery of the inserts . Once delivered I asked how much lift there was as they look the same left and right . The reply was there is 2mm lift as the standard is 1mm per 5mm of LLD . I have measured with caliper there looks to be 1mm max. I do think the lift was forgotten.
Dr Blake's comment: Never heard of this rule.
I'm in the Military and I have to be able to run . Can you provide some advice on how to modify running shoes ? If I just get a pair of running shoes with a lift I suspect they will lose the forefoot cushioning that I need . How much lift do I need for 9mm LLD ?
Alot doctors keep telling me that LLD doesn't matter at all. Everyone has some and I just need to run more . I also have had alot of shoulder problems because my posture was terrible . I have spent alot of time trying to correct it and my left mid back gets irritated all the time. Since starting to use the lifts, alot of these issues have started to clear up (especially my shoulders).
Dear Dave, Thank you so very much for your email. I am assuming that the left side is short the way you describe it, but let me know if this is wrong. Many doctors ignore the role of LLD (limb length discrepancy or leg length difference). It sounds like you have already found out it can be a valuable factor in balancing your body. I try never to put the lift on the orthotic device so that it can be somewhat adjustable. In sports, but normally when prescribing lifts, I try to keep them full length, with the toe area cut off. As long as you build up under the heel and metatarsals you are doing it correctly. Most athletic shoes take 3/8 inch lifts, and I use spenco/neopreme to accomplish that. Buy 3 1/8th full length spencos your size, use just the side of the short leg, stand on them and mark between your toes. Then cut out the area of the toes. Use all 3 under the orthotic device on your short side. Since it is soft material, and will compress some on impact and pushoff, you are probably only getting 8-9 mm total which should be enough. If this is the side of your sore big toe joint, cut out that area on one or two of the 3 layers to off weight it. Try to tapper the leading edge of the inserts to smooth the transition somewhat.
Here is the lift I imagine for you made off a Spenco knockoff called neolon. It is easy to purchase spenco insoles of your size and use the side only of the short leg. Since you need 3, buy 2 pairs and turn one of the right ones over to make it another left. Cut out 1 to 3 of the layers at the toes and at the ball of the foot for off weighting of the sore big toe joint.
Here is the insole cut appropriately and placed under the shoe insert or orthotic device in your case. If you read all my posts on Short Leg Syndrome you can see that I do not like heel lifts since they can make the ankle unstable (probably why you get peroneal problems) and shift weight forward (not great for big toe problems).
Here is the one of the hip xrays from my patient Albert. Albert has degenerative changes (wear and tear) on both hips, right greater than left. This is a standing AP Pelvic Xray with shoes on showing a short right leg that I am using lifts to level. Albert has had 6 synthetic cartilage injections into both hips, with the left hip doing great and the right hip still in pain. What complicates matters and the decision making for hip replacement is that he also problems with his right sacro-iliac joint and his right lumbar spine. Both areas can produce pain that can mimic hip pain and vice versa.
Here is a magnified image of Albert's right hip. The degenerative changes are mild to moderate only. Should he have a hip replacement was the question he asked me? I have seen Albert's function diminish over the last year and now he always has a cane in his left hand. But the xrays didn't look that bad!! His orthopedist was conservative, and really good at telling Albert that he would know when he needed a hip replacement. But was it just referred pain from the SI joint or low back? I encouraged him to get a bone scan for more definitive answers. He approached his orthopedist on the subject and the test was ordered.
Here is the Tc 99 bone scan images of Albert's hip area. I apologize that the image is turned around, but the side of the intense dye uptake is in the right hip. Bone scans document bone metabolism. Where is Albert trying to mend at the bone layer? The Tc 99 dye glues itself to the phosphorus molecules in your body. Phosphorus, calcium and water make up bone. After 2 hours of letting the dye circulate, the images are collected.
Here is a higher image on the body showing the dye in the kidneys already. You urinate the dye out of your body over 12 hours and patients are encouraged to drink alot the day of the test. The lumbar spine looks normal, but there is a slight increase in the right SI joint. But the dye accummulation in the right hip is so intense, Albert will be scheduling a hip replacement soon. Hopefully, we can get his short right leg corrected at the same time.
Here is a view of the Saucony Triumph 8 from the side. The shoe is a neutral shoe, which for supinators can be too soft and unstable, but this one seems to work well. As the video says it has some good qualities that make it stable. One of my patients EB brought this shoe to my attention. It works very well for her and she is a significant supinator.
Here is EB in the Saucony Triumph 8 left shoe from the back view. You can see how vertical it holds her foot, although she has an insert to stop some of her supination.
Running shoe stores can tend to use to many generalizations and one of them which has always bothered me is that supinators need neutral cushioned shoes. Many supinators, with orthotic devices to correct some or all of that supination, due the best in stability shoes. I am always fighting these neutral shoes when trying to stablize an unstable foot. So, I hope this Saucony Triumph 8 stands the test of time.
Here is a pair of insoles made of neolon, a knockoff of Spenco. Spenco is the best shock absorping material on the market that I have worked with over the last 30 years. It is shock absorbing and very durable. You can purchase at many retail stores or at www. spenco.com. I cover almost all my orthotics, other than dress and Hannaford, with spenco. It is neopreme, the foam rubber you find in wet suits.
Here I have made accommodations, or cut outs, for a patient with sore areas under both fifth metatarsals and both big toes. See how the inserts have changed from their original design. This can dramatically change the pressure distribution on the bottom of the feet.
Here I have added more accommodation to the bottom of the inserts by taking adhesive felt and placing it next to the cut out areas. The adhesive felt can be purchased as a roll from http://www.mooremedical.com/ . I use 1/8 inch felt. You can use many products to glue or tape onto the insert to accomplish the off weighting of the sore area. Many of my patients are quite artistic.
Photo above shows 1/8 inch or 3 degree varus wedge placed into the midsole of a running shoe for better pronation control. Placing the wedge (up to 3/8 inch commonly used) within the midsole or on the outersole is more powerful support than as a shoe insert.
The photo above shows 1/4 inch valgus wedge applied the lateral border of a dress shoe (pinky toe side) to control supination forces. Of course, shoe repair shops will use material that blends into the outersole for better cosmesis.
Here is a common version of power lacing where the lst and 3rd eyelets are used, in contrast to the 1st and 2nd. See if one modification feels more comfortable and/or more stable. Power lacing can add 10-20% more pronation or supination support to a shoe, and a must when you are using orthotic devices.
The photo above illustrates the point that shoe eyelets are meant to be skipped to alleviate pressure on the top or sides of the foot. It is good to experiment with skipping eyelets when you have bunions, instep pain, or even generalized foot pain to see if it is helpful.
In the photo above the shoe is being cut to increase flexibility. Many shoes are just too stiff in the ball of the foot. The cuts should not go all the way to either side or to the bottom of the shoe. Many problems of forefoot pain are helped with the simple modification. However, if it makes the problem worse, you will need some way of stiffening the area, or purchase a new shoe.
In the photo above tiny cuts are being made into the midsole to allow the shoe to compress more on one side. Here the cuts are being made on the medial side (big toe side) to allow the foot to pronate more in a supinator.
In the photo above, a small slit is placed under the first metatarsal in hallux limitus/rigidus to apply a stiff insert to limit big toe joint motion.
In the photo above, adhesive felt is used as a tongue pad to secure the foot better in the shoe, but also to off weight a sore area by the accommodation or cut out area.
In the photo above, a cut is being made in the heel counter padding to place into the shoe gel padding. This patient was getting irritation from the shoe in this area. A shoe repair store sowed the slit up after I tortured the shoe.
In the photo above, this illustrates that any spot of a shoe can be softened to be more friendly to a sore spot. Remember, shoe repair stores need to take your shoe over night to adequately stretch the appropriate area.
Here are two positive casts of a patient with forefoot varus. The area under the first metatarsal is marked where problems with the Root Balance Technique can occur. If you use the Root Balancing Technique with forefoot varus, you run the risk of jamming the first metatarsal not allowing crucial first ray plantarflexion for propulsion.
The line running obliquely across the foot represents the longitudinal axis of the midtarsal joint. It is important for proper foot function that the weight of the foot passes laterally to this line, keeping both midtarsal joints pronated in midstance and propulsion. When supporting the forefoot varus deformity, the Root Balance Technique can produce too much pressure under the first metatarsal causing long axis supination interfering with proper foot function.
This has been a problem long recognized by the orthotic industry. Compromises in support are being made with this foot type daily. It is important to realize that they are compromises, and suboptimal support is achieved. Suboptimal support can lead to poor symptom response, and even the creation of bunions, etc. Even in patients with 2 or 3 degrees of forefoot varus, I will try to modify the correction to place more support proximally with the Inverted Technique or the Kirby Skive. This way the anti-pronation support is not compromised, and the possibly damaging problems associated with full forefoot varus correction are eliminated.
Thank you from a Reader!!
This is an email I received today. It is so encouraging. I want to say I am so happy to help and this is one of the great aspects of this blog.
I just stumbled across your blog and wanted to thank you, particularly for your Sept 16, 2010 post entitled "Sesamoid Fractures: Advice when not healing well." I recently managed to see a podiatrist, 14 months after I slipped while pirouetting after a New Year's party, and it appears that I may have a non-healing sesamoid fracture. Like Jenni from the post, dance is very important to me: I'm griefstricken at the possibility that this injury might permanently reduce my ability to dance. Your response to Jenni has given me an invaluable advance perspective on my possible treatment strategies. and it is infinitely reassuring to find such a thorough and compassionate collection of advice on your blog.
Many, many thanks and very best wishes!
For those of you not familiar with a sesamoid, you have two under your first metatarsal at the ball of the foot designed to protect the big toe joint and increase the power of the tendon which pulls the big toe downward against the ground for pushoff.
When your feet and ankles begin to get swollen as you age, many are treated with support hose. The purpose of this post is only to tell you of one of the pitfalls. When the support hose begins to get loose, patients tend to fold them below the knee thus cutting off the circulation and making matters worse. Here are 2 photos showing first that the left side is stretched out too much. And secondly, the patient responded to the loose hose by folding it back on itself, cutting off the venous return to the heart. If you have any loved ones with support hose, make sure that their hose fits well, and when they remove them, their should not be a deep impression into the skin just below the knee.
Here the left support hose is too loose and can be easily pulled above the knee compared to the right one.
Here the patient fixes the situation with folding the support hose below the knee, thus cutting off the venous return to the heart.
A cloudy but inspiring San Francisco Sunset.
These are Forefoot Varus/Supinatus casts which stand in an Everted Position. When you use Root Balancing Techniques to fully correct, you may produce pathological (harmful) blocking of normal first ray plantarflexion with SAGITTAL PLANE BLOCKADE. You may also produce long axis of the midtarsal joint supination (at a time with the midtarsal joints should be fully pronated for stability). So, whereas Forefoot Valgus support with Root Balancing is sacred territory to fully correct, Forefoot Varus support with Root Balancing is filled with land mines and booby traps. More to come.
When I am dealing with patients with lateral foot and metatarsal problems, I love when I find forefoot valgus tilts in their biomechanics. The correction for this everted forefoot tilt allows for Maximum Lateral Column and Metatarsal Support at the same time. The cast of the right foot below shows the negative cast capturing this everted forefoot to rearfoot relationship. When the forefoot has an everted deformity, the negative cast will sit inverted.
Here the casts are brought back to a more stable heel vertical position in preparation for making the postive cast corrections, and eventually, the orthotic devices themselves.
After this cast is filled with solid plaster, it will be leveled to the stable heel vertical position.
See how the lateral arch demonstrated here is just as high as some medial arch supports giving great lateral column support.
See how this lateral arch support will translate into great overall metatarsal support.
Here a little taste of how the process goes at the lab. Once the heel inverted position is noted, a nail is used to bring the cast back to a heel vertical stable position.
Then plaster is used to make what is called a platform with the end point where the orthotic device (plastic) will end just behind the weigth bearing surface.
Hopefully, this representation of the foot after the platform is in place shows the potential of great metatarsal support.
Here the positive cast is placed down with lateral arch in full view. This translates into a great lateral or outside arch.
Here is an orthotic device made off a similiar mold with a inside and outside arch so similiar that it is hard to tell what side is the normal arch. Also, easily demonstrated, is how much natural metatarsal arch is created.

France threatened yesterday to block any effort at next week's summit of industrialized nations to approve a deal aimed at restarting world trade talks.
French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe said his country would oppose any move by world leaders at the Tokyo summit to adopt an agreement to lower tariffs on a wide range of manufactured goods and services. He also said the European Community would refuse to make any concessions in trade talks as long as the United States maintained punitive duties on European steel.
High-level negotiations to conclude the North American Free Trade Agreement are to resume in Mexico City next week, despite a U.S. judge's order earlier this week threatening the treaty.
Mexico's Commerce Secretary Jaime Serra Puche announced the fifth round of talks will take place from Thursday to Saturday and said negotiators were seeking to resolve the last obstacles to side agreements on jobs and the environment.
Northwest Airlines' pilots said yesterday that they are not budging beyond their previous offer to cut wages by $300 million over three years.
