In 1976 J.P. Guilford identified two types of thinking that lead to creativity and problem solving: divergent thinking and convergent thinking. Divergent thinking is exploring all the possibilities you can think of that might remotely relate to your project. In other words, brainstorming on steroids. Convergent thinking is sorting through them, choosing the best fits and putting them together for a plan of action.
This week I have a number of creative projects for our local theater – a brochure, program, videos, sounds cues and a luncheon presentation. While I love to do these kinds of things, I was a bit overwhelmed until I listed each project on a sheet of paper (actually a spreadsheet), then listed all the activities that would need done to complete each of those projects. Finally, I put "Do Dates" behind each one and sorted from earliest to latest. This was tremendously freeing for me because it was no longer circling around my head as a vague list of things that had to be done sometime. It became manageable and let me get to the first task knowing I had a plan of attack.
My camera always seems to point toward things that can only be made authentic through time.

Watch Burna Boy and DJ Jimmy Jatt's smokey video for "Chase"
Music videos are always a great way to spend 4 minutes of your day
Written by Debola Abimbolu - 20.Jul.2017
Burna Boy's position in Nigeria's musical hierarchy may forever be a topic of contention. Sure he always comes through on releases and even brings his A-game on features but somehow, he doesn't have quite the same standing as artist like Wizkid, Davido, Tekno and Runtown. They are seen as big stars because they have sold themselves as such but Burna Boy seems to be selling himself short. Especially when you go by this video for DJ Jimmy Jatt's new single, "Chase" released earlier this month.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BWvRNOBhHDU/?taken-by=djjimmyjatt&hl=en
Produced by Benie Macaulay, "Chase" is a mid-tempo Afropop song with horns and piano led instrumentals and a few guitar harmonies sprinkled for an afro feel. While Burna Boy delivers a delightful performance detailing his almost ironic experience as a desirable person, the video directed by Matt Max is a far cry from what we expect from an artist of Burna Boy's stature. The video for "Chase" is set in a strip dimly lit club featuring dancing poles and a few models to cheer Burna Boy as he performs the song bathed in fluorescent lights and smoke machine fumes. Basically, the least creative school boy's imagination of what a night out at the club is like.
Music videos play an important role in crafting an artist's image. The first video for Wizkid's "Come Closer" was basically utilitarian studio shots of him and three models performing but just before the SFTOS album was released, he put out a much better video that portrays him as an African prince to cement his position as Africa's biggest musical export. Burna Boy is inconsistent with his videos and this could be one reason why he isn't rated as high as he should.
Asides being a great way to spend 4 minutes of your day, videos have grown to become a significant part of our music culture. Watch DJ Jimmy Jatt and Burna Boy's video for "Chase" below.

Housing Discrimination in Canada
Révolutionnaire Team
By: Zahra Mardanyar
Housing discrimination often "consists of any behavior, practice, or policy in the public or private sectors that directly, indirectly, or systematically causes harm through inequitable access to or use and enjoyment of housing by members of historically disadvantaged social groups" (Novac 2002). From this definition alone, we can see that housing discrimination can be both overt and covert. Below you will find the different forms housing and homeownership discrimination can look like:
Landlords refusing to rent units to tenants based on race, disability, socioeconomic factors, and/or others
Imposing unequal rent
The difference in fees and leasing requirements
Subject to different degrees of scrutiny
Racial steering: intentional segregation of different races to different areas
Historically, land ownership and housing in Canada were restricted based on race. Following the American Revolutionary War, Black loyalists were promised "freedom and farm" in exchange for the British's support. Unfortunately, many did not receive the land grants they were promised. The few that did were confined to smaller and lower quality land, often far from the white settlers (Henry 2019)—little changed from this as Canada moved towards restrictive covenants, a codified agreement that often discriminated against racial minorities through the intentional refusal to either rent or sell to "Black, Asiatic, colored or Semitic blood" (Clément 2018). Once restrictive covenants became illegal, housing discrimination became more spread out and nuanced.
Presently, housing discrimination is more implicit. The bases for bias have widened to include discrimination on sex and gender, sexual orientation, social, economic status, disability, land use planning, and family structures (Novac 2002). Yet, discrimination based on race is still the highest. More Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) are coming forward to share their experience in finding housing in Canada. In three separate cases, a black man, a black woman, and an Indigenous couple face discriminatory behavior from different landlords (Alini 2020 & Johnson 2019). In each of their cases, the individuals found that their requests went smoothly until they showed up to view the housing. Once the landlords saw the individual's faces—showing their race—their inquiry was cut short. Novac et.al suggests that these cases are often because of "statistical discrimination [that] consists of judging people, not on their characteristics, but according to their membership in certain groups" (2002). The relevance of this becomes more apparent to the experiences of the above individuals when we consider one of them—who was told that the unit is no longer available—chose to ask her white friend to schedule a viewing of the same unit that the landlord said was available (Alini 2020). The method employed above is referred to as "paired research/audit" that consists of sending two nearly identical individuals on all levels that differ in racial identity to view the same unit. In doing so, the researchers look for any differential treatment that suggests discrimination based on race.
While Canada does not have many recent studies that use paired researchers or auditors, the experience of BIPOC indicates that this is a gap the government needs to fill. More information on housing discrimination matters because it limits BIPOC of chances of finding adequate housing. Just because the research isn't there doesn't mean that housing discrimination doesn't exist.

Frankenstein In The 18th Century Essay
"Satan has his companions, fellow-devils, to admire and encourage him; but I am solitary and detested" (Mary Shelley). In Mary Shelley's novel, Frankenstein, Victor Frankenstein creates a monster who refers to himself as "Adam of your labours" which also happens to be the first man created in the Bible. The monster was abandoned by Victor and was left to teach himself and slowly discover what he is, which slowly drives him to insanity. Gothic novelists such as Mary Shelley targeted to epitomize the melancholy of the early 18th century throughout their writing. When the "first wave" of gothic literature was started it was created as a refined joke. The "second wave" of gothic novelists, along with Mary Shelley, founded innovative conventions.…show more content…
Frankenstein changed the direction of medical science and inspired something that might not have happened without her genius writings. In the 18th century, electricity inspired many scientists, and at that time very little was understood about electricity. A scientist by the name of Galvani performed a similar experiment on a frog and discovered that whenever you touch the frog with an electric machine, his leg twitched. Frankenstein influenced the hypothesis that if you could produce an electrical current strong enough to revive a lifeless…show more content…
Shelley influenced science, medical exploration and experimentation through her novel by pressing boundaries and rectifying the journey of modern science. Without Shelley's innovative philosophies concerning science, medical science would not be where it currently is in medical evaluations. However, Frankenstein wasn't only an inspiration to modern scientists at the time, it was also an inspiration to grotesque novelists and set a new level for gothic writers of the 18th century. Through a religious standpoint, we have received our bodies as a gift from God, and to create another individual would be morally wrong in God's

and writings. Her novel Frankenstein is named among the best written and most meaningful of the gothic works, and is one of the few still popularly read today. A precursor to the Romantic trend in art and intellect, gothic novels rejected of the precepts of order, balance, idealization, and rationality that typified Classicism in general and late 18th-century Neoclassicism in particular. The gothic tradition grew out of disillusionment with the Enlightenment and 18th-century rationalism and physical
Essay on Frankenstein is Not a Natural Philosopher
Smith's article 'Frankenstein and natural magic' takes a literary approach to the analysis of 'Frankenstein' although this is supported by some background scientific knowledge. Through the article, Smith describes the impacts science has made on Frankenstein's life . Smith plays close attention to Frankenstein's childhood, where he discovered the ancient philosophers, and his Ingolstadt years. It is in these periods where Smith argues that Frankenstein is not a natural philosopher but a natural magician

How is the abuse of power shown in two works that you have studied? The works I have studied and will be exploring in this essay are Mary Shelly's 'Frankenstein' and Joseph Conrad's 'Heart of Darkness'. In 'Frankenstein' the abuse of power is most clearly exhibited by the protagonist of the story Frankenstein himself, his abuse of power results in his isolation and could serve as a warning to people, telling them not to play with forces that they can not control. In 'Heart of Darkness', Conrad

"Fedury" (Federal Reserve + U.S. Department of the Treasury) is a financial nickname that has been infrequently used (mostly by ArkansasAngie or Angie Pratt). The portmanteau name has been used on several financial blogs.
The Federal Reserve System (also known as the Federal Reserve, and informally as the Fed) is the central banking system of the United States. It was created on December 23, 1913, with the enactment of the Federal Reserve Act, largely in response to a series of financial panics, particularly a severe panic in 1907. Over time, the roles and responsibilities of the Federal Reserve System have expanded and its structure has evolved. Events such as the Great Depression were major factors leading to changes in the system.
The Congress established three key objectives for monetary policy—maximum employment, stable prices, and moderate long-term interest rates—in the Federal Reserve Act. The first two objectives are sometimes referred to as the Federal Reserve's dual mandate. Its duties have expanded over the years, and today, according to official Federal Reserve documentation, include conducting the nation's monetary policy, supervising and regulating banking institutions, maintaining the stability of the financial system and providing financial services to depository institutions, the U.S. government, and foreign official institutions. The Fed also conducts research into the economy and releases numerous publications, such as the Beige Book.
I Did The Right Thing Not Buying A House, Now What?
I thought this is where the Fedury comes in, with liquidity to backstop GSE debt auctions in case the private market overestimates the yield.
Fed, Treasury (Fedury) decides who the winners are.
Editor note: Who takes the hit for the bad economy? The Fedury is busy picking winners and losers. The method they have selected is the printing press.
So … just where is the money going? Ben Bernanke et al are going to spend $850 billion on treasuries over the next six months. That's not the "money" being questioned. We know where the Fedury is going to get its money … the printing press.

Detroit Recalls Defenseman Dan Renouf
First-Year Pro Has Appeared in 58 Games with Griffins
By J.J. from Kansas@JJfromKansas Mar 26, 2017, 6:47pm CDT
Share All sharing options for: Detroit Recalls Defenseman Dan Renouf
Caylor Arnold-USA TODAY Sports
DETROIT – The Detroit Red Wings today recalled defenseman Dan Renouf from the American Hockey League's Grand Rapids Griffins under emergency conditions.
Renouf, 22, was signed by the Red Wings as a free agent on March 10, 2016 and has spent his first professional season with the Griffins, logging 15 points (3-12-15), a plus-15 rating and 59 penalty minutes in 58 games. The Pickering, Ontario, native leads Grand Rapids in penalty minutes and is tied for third on the team and for seventh among AHL rookies in plus-minus. Renouf also appeared in six games with the Griffins in 2015-16 following the conclusion of his junior year at the University of Maine, picking up one assist and five penalty minutes.
The 6-foot-3, 209-lb., defenseman spent three seasons with Hockey East's Maine Black Bears from 2013-16 prior to turning pro. In 111 collegiate games, Renouf notched 38 points (10-28-38), a plus-14 rating and 72 penalty minutes. He capped off his Maine career in 2015-16 by leading the team's defensemen with 15 points (6-9-15) in 38 games. Renouf was honored with the Maine Scholar-Athlete Award following his sophomore season in 2014-15 and was also named to the Hockey East All-Academic Team as a freshman in 2013-14. Before his collegiate career, Renouf spent two seasons with the Youngstown Phantoms of the United States Hockey League. In 115 USHL games from 2011-13, he registered 43 points (11-32-43), a plus-35 rating and 136 penalty minutes.
Since the team used "Emergency Conditions" in their presser they're saying one of the six healthy defensemen is questionable now. Best guess is Kronwall, but a look at the ice time for Wings defensemen shows Kronwall led all the blueliners in the third period, but didn't play in OT.
We'll keep an eye out for updates, but with two more games in the next two days and several seasons' worth of Kronwall being on watch for not playing back-to-back nights, let's just expect that's it.


The ZAO Stroyservis Coal Mine in Kemerovo, Russia was the perfect venue for Eurotire OTR Tires to initiate the new Eurocare "Pressure Days" Program. Eurotire demonstrated support for their Stroyservis customer by dedicating technical expertise and providing complimentary inspections, tools and hardware replacements for their Bias Ply and Radial OTR Tires.
KEMEROVO, RUSSIA, October 22, 2013. As a customer service event, the Eurotire Kemerovo based OTR Tire Sales and Technical Team held their first "Pressure Days" event. During the day-long event, the team set up a station on location and inspected the customer's OTR tires. Eurotire technicians also replaced faulty valve cores and defective caps in many of the vehicles in the fleet. The team also took the opportunity to calibrate the customer's existing pressure gauges and to distribute new gauges to the minesite operators.
"Pressure Days" is an extension of the Eurocare program. Eurotire developed the Eurocare program to provide valued customers such as Stoyservis with the safe and dependable tires they demand. The unique program also tracks the entire life cycle of a tire, following it from the moment it leaves the factory to ensure that it is maintained, serviced and utilized to its full potential. With Eurocare, mine operators around the world have a dedicated partner in building a more profitable and safer mining operation.


Checking in on the Glacier National Park webcams is a great way to practice the first principle of Leave No Trace: be prepared. Our webcams link directly to the Glacier NP webcams, but the pictures don't automatically update. So, be sure to click on the picture in question to see real time conditions. Also know that the webcams sometimes have technical difficulties due to the remoteness of their locations. Always check the time stamp in the upper left hand corner of the camera to see if it is broadcasting in real time!
Looking at the webcams can help you see if the Logan Pass parking lot has already filled for the day. Glacier NPS officials have announced that they will announce road and parking lot restrictions via their Twitter feed, so be sure to check that, too. There aren't webcams in the North Fork, for example, but Bowman Lake road restrictions are generally broadcast on that Twitter feed.
In the off season, looking at the webcams is a great way to stay in touch with the park and to marvel in the beauty of its changing seasons. We post lots of pictures of Glacier in the off season, too, mostly on our Facebook and Instagram pages. Sometimes on our Twitter feed, too. Also, you can sign up for our newsletter on the main page of our website. Keep in touch!

Font nahm im November 1997 in Tignes erstmals am Snowboard-Weltcup der FIS teil und errang dabei den 54. Platz im Riesenslalom. In der Saison 2000/01 kam er bei den Snowboard-Weltmeisterschaften 2001 in Madonna di Campiglio  auf den 49. Platz im Parallelslalom, auf den 31. Rang im Riesenslalom sowie auf den 24. Platz im Snowboardcross und in der Parallel-Riesenslalom-Wertung des South American Cups auf den dritten Platz. In der folgenden Saison gewann er die Snowboardcross-Wertung des South American Cups. In der Saison 2002/03 erreichte er in Valle Nevado mit Platz vier im Snowboardcross seine beste Platzierung im Weltcup und zum Saisonende mit dem 18. Platz im Snowboardcross-Weltcup sowie den 13. Rang im Gesamtweltcup seine besten Gesamtergebnisse im Weltcup. Beim Saisonhöhepunkt, den Snowboard-Weltmeisterschaften 2003 am Kreischberg, errang er den 34. Platz im Snowboardcross. In der Saison 2004/05 wurde er spanischer Meister im Parallel-Riesenslalom und belegte bei den Snowboard-Weltmeisterschaften 2005 in Whistler den 18. Platz im Snowboardcross. Nachdem er zu Beginn der Saison 2005/06 mit Platz acht in Valle Nevado seine zweite und damit letzte Top-Zehn-Platzierung im Weltcup errang, wurde er im Februar 2006 bei seiner ersten Olympiateilnahme in Turin Vierter im Snowboardcross. In den folgenden Jahren kam er bei den Snowboard-Weltmeisterschaften 2007 in Arosa auf den 21. Platz im Snowboardcross und bei den Snowboard-Weltmeisterschaften 2009 in Gangwon auf den 61. Platz im Parallel-Riesenslalom. In seiner letzten aktiven Saison 2009/10 absolvierte er in Bad Gastein seinen 59. und damit letzten Weltcup, welchen er auf dem 67. Platz im Snowboardcross beendete und belegte bei den Olympischen Winterspielen 2010 in Vancouver den 64. Platz im Snowboardcross.

Women who opted for the vaginal ring as a contraceptive in Spain 2022, by age
J. Mendoza,
According to a survey carried out in Spain in 2022, the age group with the highest share of women who used the vaginal ring as a contraceptive method was those between 30 and 34 years of age, with five percent of women within that age group opting for this method. Based on the same survey, that year the most used contraceptive method in the European country was condoms.

The Sound of His Laughter
By: Skye Thomas
When you're searching for your Mr. Right, I want you to pay close attention to his laugh. It may seem odd for me to say that, but you can tell a lot about a man by his laugh. Real laughter is uncontrollable. For just a moment something strikes us as funny and the sound of laughter pours forth spontaneously and without any real control on our part. It bubbles up and gives away the secret part of us that thinks the event or situation presented is funny. Laughter can be faked, but that's part of what I want you to analyze when you're listening to his laughter.
First of all is his laughter real or fake? You can always tell when someone has one of those completely goofy laughs that nobody in their right mind would choose to have -- those silly sounding laughs that cause everyone else to laugh too. You've also heard those completely fake laughs that sound like a bad actor in a Dudley DoRight play! Most people have fairly normal sounding laughs and they are spontaneous. If the guy you're interested in fakes his laugh occasionally to laugh at a small child's attempt to tell a joke, that's okay. But, if he fakes his laugh on a regular basis, I would seriously question his overall ability to present his authentic self to the world. You may or may not feel like analyzing why he's faking it, but it's important to note if he's presenting a false joviality to the world on a regular basis.
Does he laugh easily? I've met a few men who had serious anger and violence issues. They don't laugh easily. Also, guys going through depression and other darker emotions obviously aren't going to laugh as easily as someone who's naturally happy and at peace with his life. The brooding silent type may seem sexy for awhile, but in the long run, you're going to want to have some lightness and fun in your life too. It gets to be a real bore to hang out with someone who's always incredibly serious and entertaining darker thoughts.
Does he laugh at people or with people? Nobody likes to be made fun of, but this has more to do with what your man finds as funny.
Does he find humor in ridiculing others? Does he laugh at others because everyone is incredibly foolish or stupid in his eyes? Is he constantly critiquing people looking for a reason to laugh at them? It doesn't matter how witty or funny his presentation, it's not a good sign if your man takes his personal pleasure in laughing at others. You also don't want someone who constantly makes himself the butt of all jokes either. I've always found an underlying self esteem issue when people spend a lot of time making fun of themselves. That's not the same as being able to laugh at ones mistakes on occasion. I'm talking about habitually devaluing one's self. Also, is he able to find joy in someone else's jokes? You don't want someone who only laughs at his own jokes and nobody else's.
Does the sound of his laughter fill you with joy? Listen to the actual sound of his laughter. Does the sound make your heart go pitter patter? It doesn't matter if he sounds like thunder on a summer day or if he giggles like a little girl! What matters is that his laughter is infectious and makes your heart lighten. Imagine coming home from a really bad day at work. Upon entering the house, you hear his laughter coming from the kitchen. Does that sound lift your spirits? Or infuriate you even more? You want to be with someone who's laughter makes your heart sing. Laughter is the best medicine and you want to chose a man who's laughter heals your weary mind.
Do you laugh at the same things? Yes, you want to be your own person with your own interests and your own unique sense of self, but you also want to share good times with your partner. You need to pick someone who has a similar sense of humor to your own. There's nothing worse then having your partner roll their eyes like you're so uncool every time you burst out laughing. What determines a person's sense of humor is wide and varied, including upbringing and level of education. If you share the same overall sense of humor, chances are that you are fairly compatible in those areas. You're somewhat on the same wave length.
Do you laugh at the same time? You want to pretty much agree on when is the proper time and place for goofing around and making each other laugh. If he likes to crack jokes and laugh a lot during foreplay and you find it to be a total turn off, then you're going to have problems. If he keeps laughing at your girlfriends when you're trying to have a serious conversation, then you're not going to get along so well. This also works in the other direction. If you're the one who is constantly laughing and joking and he's the one getting upset that your timing is inappropriate, then you're not going to like hanging out with a fuddy duddy. Compatibility shows itself in little things like timing.
If you've already got a guy and you're considering spending the rest of your life with him, start watching his laughter. Decide if the things you see are what you want in a lifetime companion. If you don't have a man, imagine sitting at the kitchen table over coffee and hearing his laughter at something witty you've just said. How would it sound? How would it feel to be in his presence when he was laughing? Look for a man who's laughter heals you rather than grates on your nerves. And make sure you both laugh together and often. It'll get you both through the tough times.

Medical Article About Shoulder Impingement
In 1972, Dr. Neer first introduced the concept of rotator cuff impingement to the literature, stating that it results from mechanical impingement of the rotator cuff tendon beneath the anteroinferior portion of the acromion, especially when the shoulder is placed in the forward-flexed and internally rotated position.[1]
Neer describes the following 3 stages in the spectrum of rotator cuff impingement:Stage 1, commonly affecting patients younger than 25 years, is depicted by acute inflammation, edema, and hemorrhage in the rotator cuff. This stage usually is reversible with nonoperative treatment. Stage 2 usually affects patients aged 25-40 years, resulting as a continuum of stage 1. The rotator cuff tendon progresses to fibrosis and tendonitis, which commonly does not respond to conservative treatment and requires operative intervention. Stage 3 commonly affects patients older than 40 years.
As this condition progresses, it may lead to mechanical disruption of the rotator cuff tendon and to changes in the coracoacromial arch with arthritis along the anterior acromion. Surgical anterior acromioplasty and rotator cuff repair is commonly required. In all Neer stages, etiology is impingement of the rotator cuff tendons under the acromion and a rigid coracoacromial arch, eventually leading to degeneration and tearing of the rotator cuff tendon.
Although rotator cuff tears are more common in the older population, impingement and rotator cuff disease are frequently seen in the repetitive overhead athlete. The increased forces and repetitive overhead motions can cause attritional changes in the distal part of the rotator cuff tendon, which is at risk due to poor blood supply. Impingement syndrome and rotator cuff disease affect athletes at a younger age compared with the general population.
The shoulder consists of 2 bones (humerus, scapula), 2 joints (glenohumeral, acromioclavicular), and 2 articulations (scapulothoracic, acromiohumeral) that are joined by several interconnecting ligaments and layers of muscles. Minimal bony stability in the shoulder permits a wide range of motion (ROM). Soft tissue structures are the major glenohumeral stabilizers. Static stabilizers consist of the articular anatomy, glenoid labrum, joint capsule, glenohumeral ligaments, and inherent negative pressure in the joint. Dynamic stabilizers include the rotator cuff muscles, long head of the biceps tendon, scapulothoracic motion, and other shoulder girdle muscles (eg, pectoralis major, latissimus dorsi, serratus anterior). The rotator cuff consists of 4 muscles that control 3 basic motions, abduction, internal rotation, and external rotation. The supraspinatus muscle is responsible for initiating abduction, the infraspinatus and teres minor muscles control external rotation, and the subscapularis muscle controls internal rotation. The rotator cuff muscles provide dynamic stabilization to the humeral head on the glenoid fossa, forming a force couple with the deltoid to allow elevation of the arm. This force couple is responsible for 45% of abduction strength and 90% of external rotation strength. The supraspinatus outlet is a space formed on the upper rim, humeral head, and glenoid by the acromion, coracoacromial arch, and acromioclavicular joint. This outlet accommodates passage and excursion of the supraspinatus tendon. Abnormalities (including trigger points situated within the muscle belly) of the supraspinatus outlet have been attributed as a cause of impingement syndrome.
Impingement implies extrinsic compression of the rotator cuff in the supraspinatus outlet space. Bigliani and associates discovered and described how variations in acromial size and shape can contribute to impingement. Cadaveric studies show 3 variations in acromion morphology, as follows: type 1 is flat, type 2 is curved, and type 3 is hooked anteriorly. Although the curved configuration was the most common (43% prevalence, compared to 17% flat and 40% hooked), the hooked configuration most strongly was associated with full-thickness rotator cuff tears. Other sites of impingement in the supraspinatus outlet space include the coracoacromial ligament (where thickening can occur) and the undersurface of the acromioclavicular joint (where osteophytes can form). The medial coracoid rarely is involved. These impingement sites in the supraspinatus outlet are compressed further when the humerus is placed in the forward-flexed and internally rotated position, forcing the greater tuberosity of the humerus into the undersurface of the acromion and coracoacromial arch. Nonoutlet impingement also can occur. Causes may be loss of normal humeral head depression from either a large rotator cuff tear or weakness in the rotator cuff muscles from a C5/C6 neural segmental lesion or a suprascapular mononeuropathy. This condition also may occur because of thickening or hypertrophy of the subacromial bursa and rotator cuff tendons.
Overuse or repetitive microtrauma sustained in the overhead position may contribute to impingement and rotator cuff pathology. Shoulder pain and rotator cuff disease are common in athletes involved in sports requiring repetitive overhead arm motion (eg, swimming, baseball, volleyball, tennis). Secondary impingement often is attributed to impingement, which seldom is mechanical in nature in young athletes. Rotator cuff disease in this population may be related to subtle instability, and, therefore, may be secondary to such factors as eccentric overload, muscle imbalance, glenohumeral instability, or labral lesions. This has led to the concept of secondary impingement, which is defined as rotator cuff impingement that occurs secondary to a functional decrease in the supraspinatus outlet space due to underlying instability of the glenohumeral joint. Secondary impingement may be the most common cause in young athletes who frequently place large, repetitive overhead stresses on the static and dynamic glenohumeral stabilizers, resulting in microtrauma and attenuation of the glenohumeral ligamentous structures, which leads to subclinical glenohumeral instability. Such instability places increased stress on the dynamic stabilizers of the glenohumeral joint, including the rotator cuff tendons. These increased demands may lead to rotator cuff pathology (eg, partial tearing, tendonitis). Furthermore, as the rotator cuff muscles fatigue trigger points develop which can contribute to prolonging the patients cycle of pain. This in turn can cause the humeral head to translate anteriorly and superiorly, impinging upon the coracoacromial arch. This leads to rotator cuff inflammation.
See this article:
In these patients, treatment should also address underlying instability as well as trigger point muscle dysfunction. The concept of glenoid impingement has been advanced as an explanation for partial-thickness tears in throwing athletes, particularly those involving the articular surface of the rotator cuff tendon. Such tears may occur in the presence of instability due to increased tensile stresses on the rotator cuff tendon from abnormal motion of the glenohumeral joint or increased forces on the rotator cuff necessary to stabilize the shoulder.
Arthroscopic studies of these patients note impingement between the posterior superior edge of the glenoid and the insertion of the rotator cuff tendon with the arm placed in the throwing position (abducted and externally rotated). Lesions were noted along the area of impingement at the posterior aspect of the glenoid labrum and articular surface of the rotator cuff. This concept is believed to occur most commonly in throwing athletes and must be considered when assessing for impingement.

Do you Tumblr? A 16-year-old asked me that once. I guess Tumblr is the new Blogger. Since the social networking post-making site is growing in popularity, it is no wonder that app makers are starting to pay attention to it.
The biggest feature of this app is its multi-tab web browsing capability. Instead of tapping on a Tumblr post and then having to hit the back button every time you want to go back to your dashboard, this app creates new tabs every time you select a link or visit a page or go to another Tumblr feed.
Every new feed you visit will create a new tab. However, the multi-tab bar is smart. If you already have a feed in the bar, you won't get a double tab of the same feed. It will simply redirect you to the existing tab.
The multi-tab bar is easily hidden out of view when you don't need it. When you scroll down to view a feed, the tab bar will disappear. To call it back up, tap the tiny arrows at the bottom right side of the screen.
The multi-tab bar also lets you follow or unfollow a Tumblr feed, close the current tab, close all other tabs, and see your browsing history. If you want to discover new Tumblr feeds, tap the search icon to call up featured tags. You can find feeds dedicated to animals, crafts, music, and more. View information regarding your own Tumblr feed in the menu section on the left side of the screen. When you call up the menu screen, you can view posts that you've "liked," see which feeds you are following and view your personal Tumblr posts.
You can also create new posts with this app. You can upload photos, videos, quotes, chats, links, and text with just a few simple taps. You can also "Like," repost, or share other Tumblr posts. You can easily share a link to a funny GIF on Tumblr through Facebook, Twitter, email, or text message.
FastFeed for Tumblr is available for the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch for free. Download it in the App Store today.
