Welcome to Flash Editorials for November 2, 2012. I am Russell D. Longcore, owner and editor of DumpDC. Flash Editorials is presented by http://www.DumpDC.com. DumpDC is the world leader in secessionist thought. We show the world that secession is the only hope for personal liberty and property rights on the planet.
This past week has been one for the record books. Something MAJOR happened on Tuesday. The daily traffic I get now at DumpDC.com is five times what it was on Monday. I wonder what could have caused that??? Let's go to the news!
By the way, I use cuss words in this video. So if cuss words offend you, don't watch this video. You've been warned.
The Nation I: Mr. Obama won. Deal with it.
Why did Barry win? Simple. The Republicans made a mildly convincing argument that America should fire Mr. Obama. The Republicans did not make a convincing argument that America should hire Mitt Romney.
Karl Rove actually said: "The October surprise was an act of God. Hurricane Sandy interrupted Mr. Romney's momentum." So what he must be saying is that God wanted Obama to win.
I wrote a brilliant analysis of the election and posted it on Thursday. You can just scroll down from here and read it. But, if you were educated in government schools and mostly get your information from TV, I will take a moment or two and spoon feed you. Open wide…….
No one in America has fronted the ridiculous notion that Mitt was the best man that the Republicans could find to be the presidential candidate. He just outspent and outlasted the others. And his campaign staff, in league with the Republican National Committee, blackballed Ron Paul.
No one in America has fronted the ridiculous notion that Americans rejected Mitt as president because they rejected his core beliefs. That is because nobody knows what Romney's core beliefs are. He was the Chameleon Candidate. Reminded me of the 80s hit record "My Obsession" by Animotion. In the chorus, the singer sings, "you're an obsession, you're my obsession…who do you want me to be to make you sleep with me?"
Mitt would be anything you needed to get elected. Remember he ran for Senate against Teddy Kennedy in 1994 and got clubbed. He's been doing anything he can to get elected to some office for 18 years. He got the Massachusetts governorship in 2002, only serving one term. That was enough to enhance a resume.
Think about the HUGE thing that Romney AVOIDED in his campaign… Obamacare. If he had solemnly vowed to abolish Obamacare as President, he probably would have won. Senior citizens nationwide are scared of getting their benefits cut under Obamacare. Even though he invented Romneycare in Massachusetts, he could have made a convincing case that what works on a state level does not translate to 315 million people…especially when Washington runs it. Or, if his ego wasn't so enormous, he could have repudiated it entirely.
Think about Mr. Obama's own words about his "one-term" presidency. Mitt should have beat Barry about the head and shoulders with that for months. But nary a word was heard. I never saw one clip of that video.
Think about the debates. Romney pulled his punches over and over, refusing to go for the jugular on issues like the Benghazi Embassy deaths or the unemployment rate…or even simple things like the price of a gallon of gasoline.
In Texas Hold-'em parlance…Mitt was not "all in." He was not willing to get some blood on his hands, so to speak.
And American politics is a blood sport. Republicans are not willing to play rough. In NASCAR there is a saying…"Rubbin' is Racin'." A NASCAR driver has to be willing to swap a little paint with other cars or he will not win. But Republicans are not willing to get mean or use a little saucy language. They are not willing to get up in somebody's face and raise their voices. Give me a candidate who would tell a reporter to "fuck off' when he asked a stupid question. Republicans are too Goddamn afraid of what the media will say about them. A week ago, the media was all a-twitter because Obama used the word "bullshitter." Not that they were critical, mind you. Romney would have never used that word 'cause he is scared. Give me a candidate that would use some four-letter words in a speech. And give me a candidate who can speak without a teleprompter…a candidate who had such deeply-ingrained core beliefs that he could defend them on the fly. Ron Paul didn't need a damned teleprompter. He spoke from his heart, which is where his core beliefs are.
Democrats are always willing to get down in the mud and mix it up. I'm not saying it's right…just saying that if you know that the rules of the game are that there really are no rules, the one who wants it most usually wins. Barry was fighting for his political legacy and his place in history. Mitt Romney was running to enhance his resume. Who wanted it most? I leave it to you.
But also keep in mind that Romney is the guy that got beat by McCain who got beat by Obama in 2008. He got the Nominee Runner-up trophy in 2008. This year, he gets the Miss Congeniality tiara. Romney is only the best that the oligarchy could find to do their bidding. It is over for Mr. Romney and his quest for the White House.
Did you watch "The Matrix"? Neo was "The One." Apparently, Mitt is not The One.
The big joke is that The One doesn't exist. Obama is not The One. He is merely "A Current One. "
Both men are textbook Sociopaths.
So, what are you going to do over the next four years? You may not be happy, but are you going to just bitch about it, or are you going to take control of your own life? Don't you think that NOW is a good time to seriously consider secession?
The Nation II: My friends at the Texas Nationalist Movement tell me that their website traffic….at TexasNationalist.com…and memberships have exploded since Tuesday. Some of the major talk radio stations have interviewed TNM president Daniel Miller about secession. I saw one online survey at KYFO 790 am in Lubbock that 88.73% of respondents are in favor of secession. The question they asked was…"Should Texas Secede?" That's all. Three words. I love Texas.
By the way, I will be on the radio with Susan Payne from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm on WJCN, 1360am in Philadelphia on Monday the 12th discussing secession. Tune in or stream the broadcast live.
The Nation III: CIA Director and former Brigadier General David Petraus has resigned as CIA Director, citing getting caught in an extramarital affair. Curious to me that this comes out only AFTER the election is over. This is the CIA. They're spies. Anybody want to try to convince me that this was not known about before Tuesday? Next question that comes to mind is: Was he "outed" to get rid of him after the Benghazi Embassy incident, and allowed to resign with some modicum of dignity? Watch this story folks. It will last about three weeks and then die.
The Nation IV: Let's revisit Tropical Storm Sandy. I'm kind of surprised that DC did not try to postpone the elections on Tuesday. But nothing came of all the rumors about martial law and election postponement. Maybe we give the dickheads in DC more credit than they deserve.
International I: The words "renounce citizenship" are now the fastest growing search terms at Google.com. Curiously, Google's own analytics say that the searches came from such places as Washington state, California, Texas, Georgia, Florida and most of the states of the Eastern Seaboard. Folks, I have been telling you and I'm telling you now. Your choices for liberty are (a) move to a state where secession will likely occur, or (b) escape from America and expatriate. And to do nothing but bitch and do Google searches is also a choice.
Business: A couple weeks back, I learned about a new business concept called "Social Commerce." We all know about Social Networking and how big it has become. The use of websites like Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, LinkedIn, Pinterest and others has exploded in just a few short years. Remember, Facebook launched in 2004. So in eight years, it has become the giant it is now, with over 1 billion worldwide members.
"Social Commerce" is simply gaining access to the vast numbers of eyes looking at Social Networks for business purposes. Now, the traditional method of gaining that access is advertising. But advertising on social networks is not working out as well as expected. Facebook thought they were going to make a killing selling ads to business who wanted access to all those eyes. But Facebook's stock price has gone from its IPO high of $38 to today's price around $19.
Turns out that social network users don't like ads any more than they do on TV. I want to see a show of hands. How many of you record TV shows…even sports events…to view later? And how many of you fast forward through the commercials? That's what I thought. You ALL DO. So, how can a business take advantage of Social Networking?
Referrals. Networking. Word Of Mouth advertising…the most powerful and effective form of advertising in existence. And Word of Mouth advertising costs nothing. Think about this. You went to a movie you liked and you recommended it to friends. You ate a great meal at a restaurant and told your friends. That is Word Of Mouth advertising. But let me ask you this…did the theater or restaurant pay you any commission when your friends spent money there? Of Course Not!!
So how can you harness the power of Word Of Mouth advertising for your business? An even better question is…How can I start a business using Social Networking and turn in into Social Commerce?
That question leads me into tonight's commercial message. Would you like to learn how you can make all your social networking PAY YOU! Let me introduce you to a new company named Solavei. Solavei just launched nationwide on September 21, 2012. They have created a company that will allow YOU to refer your friends and relatives and make money by doing it. You don't have to sell anything. Simply post messages and links and let your friends family and acquaintances look for themselves. If they like what they see and make a purchase, you get paid!!
Solavei's first Value Proposition is this: Unlimited talk, text and data on a 4G nationwide network for $49.00 per month. No Contract. No Credit Checks. No Deposits. You can bring your phone and phone number with you. And enrolling takes about 5-6 minutes online. I saved $46 a month by switching! That's $552 a year and I'm getting more that I got with ATT.
Think about this: Cell phone service is a life-essential service that nearly every person from age 10 to age 100 has. And mobile phone users will not voluntarily give up their phone service. What would they do? Get a land line? That requires credit checks and deposits. So phone bills…like utility bills…will get paid every month even if other expenses get cut or eliminated altogether. That makes the business recession-proof.
Solavei's business model is this: Refer people you know to Solavei. When those people sign up like you did, you will receive monthly commissions as long as those new customers remain Solavei customers. Solavei even has a plan whereby members can have their mobile phone service FOR FREE. How many people getting free phone service are going to switch to another carrier? NONE! No other phone provider can beat FREE, can they?

Economy I: The number of actual initial unemployment claims filed under state programs, unadjusted, totaled 355,406 in the week ending November 3rd. This is an increase of 14,489 from the previous week. In the same press release, the Labor Department "seasonally adjusted" the number to show that it was 8,000 lower than last week. At least in this case, the lies are published for all to see. And the mainstream media publishes the lies the government gives them, not the actual number shown just ONE PARAGRAPH below the lies.
Sports Part I: The Atlanta Falcons have a 8-0 record in the National Football League. They did not look sharp last Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys, but they still won. Ugly wins still count. This Sunday they take on the New Orleans Saints at the Superdome in "nawlins". My wife and I were in the city for Mardi Gras this year. Nothing like New Orleans. Quick story. Julie and I were sitting in a seedy bar about a block off Bourbon Street one rainy afternoon and we engaged in conversation a long, lovely young lady sitting next to Julie. She handed her business card to Julie and invited BOTH of us to come to the "gentlemen's club" that night were she would be workin' the pole as a dancer. Sometimes my real life exceeds my fantasy life.
Finally, in Entertainment: Not a damned thing worth talking about happened in entertainment this week, but a couple headlines caught my eye. First, Shakespeare specialist Kenneth Branaugh was knighted by Queen Elizabeth this week. And most important of all…The Firefly series celebrates its 10th anniversary this weekend with a Firefly marathon on Sunday on The Science Channel on your cable or satellite provider. Awesome….
That's all for tonight. Thanks for watching. I am Russell D. Longcore. For all of us here at Dump DC: Good night and good luck.

Elements Slim Papers burn smoothly producing no ash except the caramel created as the sugar gum burns, this is the result of using a criss-cross imprint.
It turns out Elements Rice Papers are just as natural as using hemp or a high quality unbleached standard rolling paper. The paper itself is made of rice, obviously. And the gum used to keep the joint stuck together is made from an all-natural gum. So, the sceptic in me was quickly put at ease.
Elements rolling papers are well known around the globe, now they have introduced the Element Slim width which is a patented for Elements smoking paper rolls. The Elements Roll Ultra Thin Slim width Rolling Paper is 5 metres long, The Slim width rolling papers are made with rice paper, are ultra-thin and are 100% Tree Free (Papers are environmentally friendly and contain no wood particles). The paper uses natural sugar gum, perfect for sticking 1st time, perfect for rolling your own.
This is definitely rice paper. right?
Does it have gum to stuck the paper?
Yes, it has gum to stuck the paper.


I know I've ragged on the Hobbit movies in my posts, but I still enjoy them. I like the cast, I find Jackson and his collaborators' approach to the material to be... interesting, and the visuals are nice, though they look a bit more Warcraft than Tolkien. (I'm pretty sure that's where the notion of dwarves having burly Scots accents originated, as I can't find any textual basis.) So I buy them when they come out on Blu-Ray... or, more accurately, I wait another six months and pick up the Extended Editions. I loved the EEs for LotR; it was like getting the movies all over again a year later, with interest. (And the extras for those old DVDs are still second-to-none.) So far I haven't gotten the same warm nostalgic feeling for the Hobbit movies... but then again, The Hobbit ain't LotR, no matter how much they try to stretch it out. That said, the 25 minutes of extra/alternate scenes in Desolation of Smaug are considerably more substantial than the eight or so minutes added to Unexpected Journey. If you're curious about the longer version, here's what's been added, with star ratings for relevance and entertainment value (* = Meh, ** = Blatant Fan Service, *** = Of Interest, **** = Snazzy). SPOILERS will obtain throughout.
That's pretty much it, though there are probably a number of shots and lines of dialogue that were added to the EE as well. I can't say that the new material makes the movie any better — it doesn't help the stuff that was dodgy to begin with, like the video game-y setpieces on the river or inside Erebor. But, if you liked the movie, or the franchise, and just want a bit more of it, the EE is a fun way to kill a little bit more time than you did in the theater.


Dlamini can't recall material facts about Sassa missing the deadline to take over social grants from CPS.
Social Development Minister Bathabile Dlamini testified that the agency's officials hid material facts from her. Picture: Kopano Tlape GCIS.
Social Development Minister Bathabile Dlamini has joined a growing list of government and state-owned enterprise leaders – including former Eskom CFO Anoj Singh, CEO Brian Molefe and Public Enterprise Minister Lynne Brown – who say they are not aware of key issues relating to the organisations that they oversee.
On the third day of the Constitutional Court-mandated inquiry to determine whether Dlamini should be held personally liable for the South African Social Security Agency (Sassa) fiasco, she testified that the agency's officials hid material facts from her about the takeover of social grant payments.
This is despite Sassa knowing since April 17 2016, that it wouldn't be able to take over social grants from incumbent payer Cash Paymaster Services (CPS) as contained in a letter sent to it by the state attorney's office.
Dlamini stuck to her guns, repeatedly telling the Judge Bernard Ngoepe-led inquiry that she only heard that Sassa would not be able to take over social grants on October 5 2016.
Effectively, Dlamini argued that she was kept in the dark for six months by Sassa officials – including the agency's former acting CEO Raphaahle Ramokgopa and leader Zodwa Mvulane – about the agency not being able to meet the deadline of taking over social grant payments by April 1 2017.
Ramakgopa and Mvulane are believed to be Dlamini's closest allies.
Dlamini refused to tell the inquiry why Ramakgopa and Mvulane hid crucial information from her about the looming crisis that would jeopardise the livelihoods of 17 million beneficiaries. She also refused to implicate them in the crisis, despite Dlamini confirming that she had regular meetings with Ramakgopa and Mvulane, and had oversight over their work.
At the heart of the inquiry is Sassa's controversial work streams, a parallel function that had been established in July 2016 comprising of Dlamini's handpicked advisors to investigate Sassa's capacity to take over social grant payments from CPS.
The work streams, which were cancelled in July 2017 by Ramakgopa's successor in acting basis Thokozani Magwaza, were controversial because officials from Sassa had little knowledge of their existence, they failed to make progress on its mandate and more than R30 million was spent on them which the National Treasury has recorded as irregular expenditure.
Magwaza was abruptly fired by Dlamini for cancelling the work streams, which led to a breakdown in their relationship. Dlamini has since blamed Magwaza for the Sassa fiasco.
Dlamini was cross-examined on Wednesday by Magwaza's advocate Richard Solomon SC on what engineered the lack of clarity on her part regarding Sassa's capacity to take over social grants.
This response has been quite similar to that given by key figures that have been implicated in the mismanagement of organisations like the former Eskom CEO Brian Molefe, CFO Anoj Singh, and Public Enterprise Minister Lynne Brown who continue to shift blame to others.
On Tuesday, Dlamini said she first became aware of the Sassa crisis when she read an article in Noseweek, a tabloid magazine, that featured the agency.
She then arranged a meeting with Ramakgopa and former Social Development Director-General Zane Dangor to become fully aware of the crisis.
However, Solomon questioned this version, arguing how Dlamini can claim to be aware of the crisis first in October 2016 while the Noseweek article she read was dated July 2016.
As on Monday and Tuesday, Dlamini rejected the allegation by Magwaza that she ordered the work streams to directly report to her while bypassing the Sassa executive committee. She said Magwaza engaged with the work streams on numerous occasion.
Two insiders told Moneyweb that the work streams were pushing to extend CPS's contract for two years despite the Constitutional Court declaring the company's contract invalid in 2015 instead of building capacity within Sassa to take over social grant payments.
Dlamini will be cross-examined on Thursday by Dangor's advocate Vincent Maleka SC.
The inquiry ends on Friday.
This person really represents the worst of the Zuma era. Rotten to the core and completely unaccountable, the day can't come soon enough when we see the back of her.
And yet the ANC supported the firing of a hihgly competent Ghordan and keep Dlamini.
Yes, yes, but look at what a splendid outfit she's wearing! Do clothes maketh the Minister? If so Dear Finance Minister Gigaba leads the pack!
And if they "say they are not aware of key issues relating to the organisations that they oversee." They are guilty of incompetence and dereliction of duty and in the case of Brown should be fired immediately.
Maybe they all listened to much of Shaggy's song "It wasn't me".
I genuinely believe them….because they are all incompetent, don't know what is going on in their departments….clueless , not qualified for their job description ….I can go on. As long as they get paid and can blame somebody else….in their eyes there is no problem.
Thick does not even begin to describe what we have here.
A personification of the toxic mix that results when arrogance is combined with ignorance.
It's hard to win an argument with a clever person. But it's bloody impossible to win an argument with a stupid one.

Q: Can SQL Server have an identity column based on another column Can SQL Server have an identity column based on another column?
I have a table design like this
Audit
AuditId
CompanyId

Everything in the system is audited, and the table can be multi tenant, thus the CompanyId.
In the context of an audit, people like to see a sequential sequence of events and due to the multi tenant nature, the identity will skip numbers like this.

*

*Company1 User logged in

*Company1 User logged out

*Company1 User logged in

*Company9 User logged in

*Company1 User logged out

*Company9 User logged out

I would ideally keep AuditId as a normal identity but wish to have a secondary identity column that is unique to CompanyId.
Is this possible in SQL Server, or do I need to do it in code?

A: SQL Server can't have an identity column based on another column because there can be only one identity column in a table.

A: You could have the companyAuditId populated by an insert trigger. It would be defined as int, but on insert the trigger will
Create trigger trAuditI for insert

        UPDATE audit
     SET CompanyAuditId = max(companyAuditId)

    where companyId
        = Inserted.CompanyId

Defined as a serum sodium concentration of <135 mmol/L.
Most common electrolyte disorder encountered in clinical practice.
Can occur in settings of volume depletion, volume overload, or euvolaemia.
Serum osmolality, urine osmolality, and urine sodium concentration help to determine the underlying cause.
Cerebral oedema is a medical emergency and occurs more frequently when hyponatraemia develops over <48 hours. Patients should be treated promptly with hypertonic 3% saline.
Other treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include fluid restriction and stopping causative medications.
Overly rapid correction of serum sodium concentration can lead to the life-threatening complication of myelinolysis and should be avoided.
Hyponatraemia is defined as a serum sodium concentration of <135 mmol/L. Normal serum sodium concentration is in the range of 135-145 mmol/L. It is a disorder of water balance reflected by an excess of total body water relative to electrolytes (total body sodium and potassium) leading to low plasma osmolality (i.e., <275 mmol/kg).[1]Spasovski G, Vanholder R, Allolio B, et al; Hyponatraemia Guideline Development Group.

(It should be noted that loss of sodium is minor compared with gains in water in most types of hyponatraemia.)

Senior exhibition opens at Thorne
The work of over 20 seniors now on display
Photo Credit: Emily Heath
KSC's annual Senior Art and Design Exhibition opened its latest student showcase on April 22 in the Thorne-Sagendorph Art Gallery.
The exhibition included 21 seniors and had a wide variety of art mediums including paintings, sketches, graphic design, ceramics and photography.
Senior Maureen D'Agostino presented ceramic and sculpture pieces at the exhibition. "By exploring both ceramic and sculptural work, I create fantastical objects inspired by my experiences working in elementary schools," D'Agostino said in the program notes.
Senior graphic design major Kailin Froberg tabled her graphic design work at the event. "Before choosing my major and coming to Keene, I had never done graphic design. I had a gut feeling I would like it and lucky for me, I ended up loving graphic design," Froberg said in the program notes.
Senior Drew Sumner presented a collection of charcoal sketches and paintings. "Painting allows me a chance to reflect on the way in which I perceive the world… These bold colors vibrate with energy, electricity, sparking something that is uncomfortable, creating an unsolved mystery," the program notes stated.
Additionally, Sumner performed live music with his band LacquerHead.
In an email sent to The Equinox, Lynn Richardson, faculty coordinator for the Thorne-Sagendorph Gallery, said the inclusion of live music "added another dimension to the event and really helped to celebrate the arts."
In addition to her role within the Thorne-Sagendorph Art Gallery, Richardson teaches the Art Senior Studio Exhibition course. The course prepares students to showcase their work in the final exhibition.
"We work together on artist statements, resumes and portfolios. And then we talk about ways to lay out a group exhibition… Students produce all of the work under the guidance of art faculty in their studio class," Richardson said.
Professor Emily Lambert also had students that were in the exhibit and oversaw their work. "The art students have been working all year and especially this semester in their senior studio seminar, where they have been writing about their work," Lambert said.
Lambert mentioned that she was proud of all the hard work that the students have put in. "It's been a privilege to watch the students' development over the last year and see so much growth in their ability to make their vision tangible," Lambert said.
Similarly, Richardson said she was proud of everyone's hard work to make the event a success. "It had such an energy and I am happy for the students to really get the moment they deserve from all the hard work over the last 4 years. I hope this energy will sustain their art practices going forward. They should be very proud of their success," Richardson said.
Richardson added, "After two years of COVID, it was finally time for all of us to come together."
Art students Maureen D'Agostino, Kailin Froberg and Drew Sumner were unavailable for an interview.

I was collecting money at a workshop recently (something I nearly always forget as I always get so carried away with the singing!) and somebody mentioned that they thought I wasn't charging enough. He cited another workshop leader who runs similar workshops, but who charges more than twice what I do.
This got me thinking: how much am I worth? should I be charging more? how did I arrive at the current fee? Next week (How much are you worth? PART TWO) I will look at why I might not want to charge the going rate or highest possible fee (more of a philosophical rant!), but for now, let's look at what might affect the fees that one charges for workshops or regular choirs.
A more experienced workshop leader will command a higher fee since you are effectively paying for their years of experience. A new workshop leader starting out with very little track record cannot afford to be too expensive.
Is it just a straight singing workshop or are there 'extras' included in the fee like lunch, songbooks, CDs, etc? The fee needs to cover these extra costs.
Depending on where the workshop is being held, or who the workshop is aimed at (e.g. the unemployed, single parents, retired people), the fee needs to be 'affordable' for the participants.
Sometimes a workshop can be run as a 'loss leader' for promotional purposes, or to try and recruit singers for a local choir. In these cases you might want a lower fee in order to attract as many people as possible.
Of course you need to cover all your costs: venue hire, publicity, printing of lyrics sheets, etc. In order to do this, you also need to anticipate the minimum number of participants you might attract.
One-to-one singing lessons will always be more expensive than large group workshops and participants will be prepared to pay accordingly.
Is running singing workshops just a hobby or part-time occupation, or is this the sole source of income?
An easy light-hearted singing day will usually be much cheaper to attend than a singing master class or specialist theme.
Are the songs being taught 'off the shelf', readily available and all ready to go, or is there a lot of arranging and sourcing time needed?
If there are other singing workshops held in the same area, the fees can't be too different.
Can you think of any other factors? How do you go about setting an appropriate fee for your workshops (or even choirs)?

Operational aspect of the policy coordination for financial stability: role of Jeffreys–Lindley's paradox in operations research
Muhammad Ali Nasir, Alaa M. Soliman, Muhammad Shahbaz
This study analyses the implications of Jeffery–Lindley's paradox and Global Financial Crisis (GFC) for the operational aspect of macroeconomic policy coordination for financial stability. Using a Bayesian Vector Auto-regressive model and data from Jan 1985 to June 2016, our key findings suggest that the claim of macroeconomic policy interaction, interdependence and significance of coordinated policy operations for the financial stability holds its ground. The argument in the support for policy coordination for financial stability was found to be robust against the Jeffreys–Lindley's paradox and in the Post-GFC era. A profound practical, operational and philosophical implication of this study is the positive aspects of Jeffreys–Lindley's paradox and the possibility of employing the Frequentist and Bayesian estimation techniques as complementing rather competing frameworks.

The iFixit teardown comes just a few days after the company also broke open an iPad Air 2. That report revealed that Apple's new iPad comes with a 15 percent smaller battery. Apple's latest tiny tablet is tough to repair, says iFixit, and any fixes to the screen could result in a non-functioning Touch ID. Apple's iPad Mini 3, which hit store shelves this week, is so close in design and internal components to its predecessor that not much has changed in the eyes of gadget-repair site iFixit.

Microsoft bought Nokia's phone iphone screen protector video business in April for $7.2 billion, a deal that will see the division continue to pump out phones with the Lumia name stamped on them, The Finnish company Nokia lives on, but no longer has anything to do with making phones, As part of the deal Microsoft also bought the rights to keep using the name Nokia on new phones for the time being, but is phasing that out in favour of branding new phones with the name Microsoft Lumia, Check out the picture above to see what the new Microsoft Lumia devices will look like when they're unveiled..
"We are looking forward to unveiling a Microsoft Lumia device soon", says Microsoft's Senior Vice President of Marketing for Phones, Tuula Rytilä, in a blog post on the Nokia -- sorry, Microsoft -- website. She describes the change as a "natural progression" and denies that the move makes today's Nokia Lumia phones obsolete. It sure feels that way, however. It makes business sense for Microsoft to make the drastic change in order to further the Windows Phone platform, which so far hasn't been able to compete seriously with its smartphone rivals, Apple's iPhone and Google's Android software. But this is the second time Microsoft has effectively cut adrift older phones, having rendered Windows Phone 7 devices obsolete when Windows Phone 8 came along and apps were no longer compatible for the existing devices. And at some point in the future Microsoft is set to do it again when the next generation of Windows Phone becomes integrated with Windows 10.
Meanwhile Microsoft will continue to sell entry-level phones such as the Nokia 130 with the familiar Nokia brand, which Microsoft has licensed from Nokia, These wallet-friendly phones are important for Microsoft as the industry looks to milk cash from developing markets such as India and China, In the short term, making phones isn't proving lucrative for Microsoft: restructuring costs around the absorption of Nokia proved a drag on profit in its most recent financial results, although in iphone screen protector video better news sales are up..
Although it's never been quite such a powerful force in the US and other parts of the world, the Nokia name is a long-established part of mobile phone history in Europe and other parts of the world. Up until just a few short years ago when Samsung took the crown Nokia had been the world's biggest mobile phone manufacturer pretty much forever; here in CNET's London office, we can't help but mourn the passing of Nokia phones -- for many of us, our first phone was a Nokia, and we still feel an emotional attachment to such telephonic powerhouses as the Nokia 3210.
Microsoft is a step closer to ditching the Nokia name from its Lumia Windows Phones, but will keep the name for entry-level devices, The first Lumia device to lose the Nokia name is coming soon, says Microsoft, but the Nokia brand isn't disappearing from phones iphone screen protector video completely -- it'll still adorn entry-level phones, Be respectful, keep it civil and stay on topic, We delete comments that violate our policy, which we encourage you to read, Discussion threads can be closed at any time at our discretion..

Biografia
Studiò dapprima la storia dell'arte ma presto iniziò a lavorare nel campo artistico. Solitamente presenta fotografie di grande formato retroilluminate con enormi light box. Wall si definisce "un pittore della vita moderna" e spesso basa il contenuto e la forma delle sue immagini sul realismo del XIX secolo o sui dipinti di Édouard Manet.

Wall si prepara con largo anticipo per scattare una fotografia: tutte le scene sono interpretate da attori, rappresentate in grandi set, riprese fotograficamente, e qualche volta assemblate o postprodotte digitalmente. A prima vista le immagini di Wall sono prive di impatto spettacolare ma comunicano la loro complessa struttura solo dopo una lunga osservazione. Wall mostra i simboli della vita moderna, include le forme del paesaggio urbano come imposizione dell'agire sociale. Gli attori messi in scena da Wall si confondono con gli attori della vita, creando una visione surreale del mondo che rende fragili le certezze dell'agire umano nel nostro tempo.

La prima retrospettiva italiana dedicata a Jeff Wall è stata ospitata al Padiglione di Arte Contemporanea di Milano.

Nel 2002 ha ricevuto l'Hasselblad Award.

Johannes (Jan) Wilhelmus Maria Liesen (Oosterhout, 17 september 1960) is een Nederlands geestelijke en bisschop van de Rooms-Katholieke Kerk. Op 26 november 2011 benoemde paus Benedictus XVI Liesen tot bisschop van Breda.

Jeugd en opleiding
Jan Liesen groeide op op een boerderij in het Brabantse Oosterhout. Na zijn opleiding aan het Sint-Oelbertgymnasium in Oosterhout (1972-1978), studeerde Liesen van 1978 tot 1983 aan het grootseminarie Rolduc te Kerkrade. Hij had naar eigen zeggen lang getwijfeld tussen een carrière in de wiskunde en het seminarie. Voor studiegenoten was hij een vraagbaak voor al hun computerproblemen. Na de diakenwijding was hij werkzaam in de parochie H. Johannes de Doper te Eygelshoven.

Priester en verdere opleiding
Op 16 juni 1984 werd hij voor het bisdom Roermond door bisschop Gijsen tot priester gewijd en kreeg hij een benoeming tot kapelaan in Eygelshoven. Vrij kort daarna ontving Liesen een studieopdracht en behaalde hij een doctoraat in de Bijbelwetenschappen. Hij studeerde aan het Pontificio Istituto Biblico, het Pauselijk Bijbelinstituut, te Rome en Jeruzalem (1985-1990) en behaalde een doctoraat in de Bijbelwetenschappen (SSD, 1998).

Van 1990 tot heden is Liesen docent exegese, Bijbelse theologie en Bijbelhebreeuws aan het grootseminarie van het bisdom Roermond, Rolduc, te Kerkrade. Sinds 1996 is hij er ook bibliothecaris van de wetenschappelijke bibliotheek. Hij heeft ook exegese en Bijbelhebreeuws gedoceerd aan de grootseminaries van de bisdommen Haarlem (2000-2003) en Den Bosch (2001-2006).

Hulpbisschop
Op 15 juli 2010 werd Liesen - tegelijk met pastoor Rob Mutsaerts - benoemd tot hulpbisschop van het bisdom Den Bosch; hij werd tevens benoemd tot titulair bisschop van Tunnuna. De wijding vond plaats op 18 september 2010 door mgr. Hurkmans, mgr. Wiertz en mgr. Lescrauwaet msc.

Bisschop
Op 26 november 2011 werd officieel bekend dat Jan Liesen was benoemd tot bisschop van het bisdom Breda. Zijn naam circuleerde al langer. Liesen is opvolger van Hans van den Hende die naar het bisdom Rotterdam vertrok. Op 28 januari 2012 was de installatieviering in de Sint-Antoniuskathedraal in Breda.

Liesen koos de wapenspreuk Deus providebit (God zal voorzien), naar het enige woord dat Abraham tegen Isaak zei toen die zich zorgen maakte over waar het offerlam bleef (Genesis, 22). Volgens Liesen was hij net zo lief pastoor in Eygelshoven gebleven en had hij niet om verdere studie gevraagd. Ook het bisschopsambt was nooit zijn ambitie geweest.

In vergadering bijeen op 14 september 2021 koos de bisschoppenconferentie de leden van hun Permanente Raad: een voorzitter, een vicevoorzitter en een lid. De huidige leden, die in 2016 werden gekozen, zijn herkozen. Mgr. J.H.J. van den Hende, bisschop van Rotterdam, is herkozen als voorzitter en mgr. J.W.M. Liesen als vicevoorzitter. Samen met mgr. G.J.N. De Korte, bisschop van 's Hertogenbosch vormen zij nog eens vijf jaar de Permanente Raad van de Bisschoppenconferentie. De Permanente Raad bereidt maandelijks de vergadering van de gezamenlijke bisschoppen voor.

Liesen is in de conferentie woordvoerder (referent) voor "liturgie". Samen met collega's Van den Hende en De Korte is hij daarnaast verantwoordelijk voor het referentschap "communicatie en media".

In augustus 2022 maakte het bisdom Breda bekend dat Liesen zijn taken heeft neergelegd omdat bij hem darmkanker is geconstateerd en hij daarvoor behandeld wordt. In december 2022 vertelde hij in een tv-interview dat hij chemotherapie ondergaat en in een klooster verblijft. Wegens zijn ziekte en behandeling kon Liesen ook niet het Ad liminabezoek van de Nederlandse bisschoppen aan de Heilige Stoel in november 2022 bijwonen.

Bisschop van Breda
21e-eeuws bisschop


I've never been inside a prison. The closest I have come to inmates is driving past a highway work crew. Too often, I have failed to give much thought, much less show compassion, to people in prison. Yet Jesus did not overlook the imprisoned when he named the acts of compassion which determine how we will be judged.
I wonder if I weren't working in a parish how often the plight of our country's prisoners would cross my mind. Rarely, if ever, I'm afraid. Unless incarceration touches us personally, we are not motivated to consider the humanity of men and women behind bars.
Indeed, if we don't encounter prisoners or know those who do, we are at risk of overlooking, even condoning, a grave injustice perpetrated against our fellow Americans.
The U.S. prison system is in dire need of reform. According to the "World Prison Population List", edited by Roy Walmsley, over 2.2 million Americans were incarcerated when the most recent census was published in October 2015. From this same source, the United States has the second highest rate (698) of prisoners per 100,000 of the national population.
According to a Newsweek report, "18 Facts You Need to Know about U.S. Prisons" by Julie Borowski (February 2015), the United States has more jails than colleges. Other facts in the same report: The prison population in the United States has grown by 400 percent since the 1980s, as a result of mandatory minimum sentencing laws for drug offenses.
And these drug sentences are clearly biased against African Americans.
African Americans represent 12 percent of the total population of drug users, but 38 percent of those arrested for drug offenses, and 59 percent of those in state prison for a drug offense.
African Americans serve virtually as much time in prison for a drug offense (58.7 months) as whites do for a violent offense (61.7 months).
The "war on drugs" has been a war on our own people, the majority of whom are already struggling.
In addition to these disturbing statistics, we have humanitarian concerns about prison overcrowding, the misuse of solitary confinement, the cruelty of death row, abuses occurring in juvenile delinquent centers and immigration detention centers, and the disturbing trend of relying on "for-profit" prisons to house our growing population of prisoners.
As Christians, commanded by Christ to visit the prisoner, whom he identified with himself, we have an obligation to seek reform of our criminal justice system and become aware of the human face of those behind bars.
Was the Holy Family poor?
Filipino Catholics at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church have been celebrating Simbang Gabi, also known as Misa de Gallo, for 29 years.


We are an independent, straight forward and unpretentious steak restaurant. A family run business conveniently located in Boxmoor village on St Johns Road next door to Sports Space and a short walk away to the centre of Hemel Hempstead.
We hand pick the very best of different grades of beef, fish, such as fresh Mackerel, Haddock, and vegetables such as the large Maris Piper potatoes and other fresh seasonal produce.
And what's more, for the lovers of exotic/game meats or those who just want to be adventurous we have on our menu of Kangaroo, Water Buffalo, Rose Veal, Venison, Blue Shark, Ostrich, Zebra and Crocodile.
We want to ensure all our customers at the end of their meal with us leave happy and satisfied.

Smash Community's Conduct Panel Reaches Breaking Point After Tumultuous Summer
Ian Walker
Filed to:code of conduct
smashsuper smash bros
The independent Super Smash Bros. Code of Conduct Panel is formally disbanding after a summer that saw the competitive Smash community explode with allegations of sexual misconduct.
"[T]he reality is that at, our current pace of work, we would need five or ten years just to go through all the accusations and possible cases brought up this summer," project manager Josh Kassel writes in the panel's official statement. "Thousands of hours would be spent listening to testimonies or getting details of the darkest parts of our community, and that is when you consider only the people from this summer. Any questionable behaviour in the meantime would get added to a waiting list that could be a decade long."
Previously known as the Harassment Taskforce, the Code of Conduct Panel was established in 2018 to provide competitive Smash with an infrastructure for handling allegations against players and other community members, ranging from destruction of property to physical attacks and sexual abuse. Its panelists developed an extensive code of conduct document that several of the scene's biggest and most important tournament organisers agreed to abide by.
The panel, while not a perfect solution, had its successes. In late 2018, it worked with Canadian organisers to discipline a local player accused of grooming and assaulting an underage girl, and in the following years helped facilitate indefinite bans for top players and personalities over similar allegations. That said, it's clear the small group was becoming overwhelmed even before this most recent glut of accusations overshadowed the community.
"From the early parts of the process, we faced disbelief and hostility," Kassel continues. "We received cease and desists, and heard the intimate details of cases so personal and heartbreaking that it taxed the people managing it to their last threads. Tales of pedophilia and molestation, of death threats or of legitimate mental illness. And in some cases, clear examples of how easily all of us can let one another down. All of this was done because we believed in the cause, and all of it was done with no material reward whatsoever. But the task before us is too big for it to be sustained through faith and strength of will alone."
With no governing body handling Smash competition, the Code of Conduct Panel was the closest thing the community had to structural discipline for heinous behaviour. To see it dissolved because there were just too many cases for them to handle should be a bitter pill for the scene, especially as it faces an outside assault by Nintendo itself. Moving forward, it would behoove everyone with a fondness for competitive Smash to take a good, hard look at what this says about the toxic environment the community has allowed to fester up to this point.

I'm looking forward to your review and any comments.
Solid effort James. Take care with tempo consistency in each piece, and try to not lift the fingers of the LH up and away from the fretboard when those fingers are not playing a note.
Thank you for the constructive recommendation. I do try to practice keeping rein on the left hand but come recording time I just don't know what happens. I will do my best to let your recommendation take prominence in my practice and perhaps I'll get a better handle on it.
Very good. I do have a comment about your body movement in the videos. It seems like you're recording on a moving platform. Are you aboard a ship or just playing on a water bed? Ha! It's just an effect I'm not adjusted to. Also, keep an eye on that left hand thumb. It wants to ride up over the neck.
Thanks James, Yeah left thumb is definitely something i need to work on.
The most difficult part of Lesson-4 for me was alternating with the right hand thumb in Lundi Matin. Much easier to play with just i and m.
I'm finally getting this lesson posted after having a bad broken fingernail problem which created issues with practice and tone. These recordings are helping me become aware of things I need to work on. For example, keeping the left thumb behind the neck, good tone production (avoiding that scratchy sound the RH makes when the fingernail doesn't attack properly), and the RH pinky sticking out away from I,M, and A.
hey Charles, some audio issues with the submissions you want to take a look at.
This is very good. I think the audio issue Ian is speaking about may be the reverb effect which comes from recording in a cinder block room. Regardless, your execution was perfect and I noted no issues with pinky extension of either hand and it al sounded wonderfully musical.
Thank you for the feedback. I have been struggling with good audio after purchasing a new DSLR camera with a RØDE video stereo mic. I think the mic is the issue, but you are are correct about the reverb. I decided it might be cool to record these in a concrete stairwell. The acoustics are nice, but perhaps a little too much.
Great progress James....it looks like you were focused on hitting the notes at the tempo that fits for you, and it also looks like there were some head sway's indicating you were getting into it.....keep it up.....love the hat by the way!
Here are my recordings for lesson 04.
Great playing Staffan. On La Cucaracha, you seem to be holding the notes a little long so it makes it sound different on measure 2, 4, and 5. Compare it to the prof and you'll hear the difference.
I got two music stands and a nice padded foot stool ala barrios-mangore.
Moving on up in the world!
Plus, I restrung my Cordoba CP110 with some Daniel Mari 100p strings. Oh so sweet.
Our house is finally empty... Time to practice!

TB drugs passed quality test
Reference is made to a news story that appeared in the Sunday Monitor of May 10, 2009 titled: 'Minister Kakooza makes a move at NDA' regarding the release of TB medicines.
Matters concerning medicines are taken very seriously at National Drug Authority and it is for this purpose that NDA ensures that medicines on the Uganda market whether manufactured locally or imported conform to national and international quality and safety standards.
Medicines, unlike other consumer goods, are meant to improve public health and NDA has to protect the population through its established quality assurance mechanism that ensures only good quality, safe and efficacious medicines are available to the population. No product would be authorised into the country without passing through this mechanism. NDA wants to assure the public that the said tuberculosis (TB) medicines were released after passing NDA's mandatory and current quality assurance mechanisms.
NDA remains committed to ensuring that only safe, efficacious and quality medicines are available for use in Uganda.

Senseless loss of life is sad
The last two weeks have saddened me. First, a PGB officer loses his head, goes on rampage and leaves several people, including himself, dead. The motive for the killings is shrouded in mystery. Then shortly after, we hear of an 'intruder' murdered at the Security Minister's residence. Again the details of the shooting are not clear. Whether the slain man was an intruder or not may never be empirically proven. Then we hear of five people who went out to look for death in Kasese after engaging themselves in a drinking spree where they took toxic amounts of 'Simba Waragi'. The last of these sad events, albeit being common news, were the several motor accidents along our highways.
If we continue losing citizens at this rate, then we are doomed as a nation.

Why defend only Pastor Kayanja?
The Minister of Ethics and Integrity, Dr. James Nsaba Buturo, recently came out strongly to defend Pastor Robert Kayanja against sodomy allegations. If what Pastor Solomon Male and others are alleging has any substance, why couldn't he use proper channels like the Police who would then investigate Pastor Kayanja?
Secondly, I would like to challenge Nsaba Buturo as to why he comes out only when allegations are made against Pastor Kayanja. Similar allegations have been made against many men of God before but he did not comment. The most recent example is that of Catholic Priest, Fr. Anthony Musaala against whom similar allegations were made by a former homosexual who is now an associate of Pastor Male.
Is Pastor Male trying to use sodomy as a tool against his colleagues in order to pull them down? And why is Nsaba Buturo only defending Pastor Kayanja? Is it because he goes to the Pentecostal churches and not the Catholic churches? Why the double standards?
My request is that all allegations should be treated equally and deeply investigated.

Only an allied opposition can win
It is very clear that the opposition is fighting one common enemy, which is the National Resistance Movement and its system of leadership which has failed to deliver as expected after 23 years in power. However, it's very sad that people who are fighting for a common cause are spending so much time pulling each other down and giving their enemy breathing space to win. Lubaga Division's upcoming LC-III elections are one example. Here is where you find Makumbi from DP, Ssebugawo from FDC, Lubowa from SDP and Ssendikadiwa, Kiggundu and Carlo running as independents, all competing against Ssematimba of NRM!
Remember in Buikwe and Bugweri where the opposition combined their forces, though there was massive rigging, the NRM lost. On the other hand, in Kalungu, Bukomansimbi and Kyadondo where opposition failed to agree on a common candidate, the split votes made the opposition lose. Also, an important party like DP has refused to join the Inter-Party Co-operation yet the only hope for change is through co-operation.
Lastly, before we blame the NRM over manipulating elections, let us first eliminate distractions we cause ourselves. If we don't wake up and start working together, people will get tired of the opposition and continue to grant victory to NRM even in 2011.

Coalition is not good for opposition
If recent media reports that the UPC had resolved [not to field a single presidential candidate] under the Inter-Party Co-operation that was formed in 2006 are true, then I must say to UPC: Bravo!
Let us have competition amongst the parties themselves based on what they are going to do once they capture power by each standing on its own manifesto and leaving the ball in the electorate's court. The coalition is likely to make some parties inactive as far as keeping the ruling party in check is concerned and it will only end up kill the opposition. They should forget about the issue of saying that they're after dislodging one person, President Museveni, if they indeed want to win the hearts and minds of the people who have for a long time denied them the chance of leading. Otherwise we're likely to experience what happened in Kenya in 2002 when Mwai Kibaki allied with Raila Odinga. Though these two successfully managed to defeat Arap Moi's party, they themselves never clicked, something that made their government not to stand the test of time.
All they were after was seeing themselves in power and not to do what they'd promised. This also seems to apply to our party leaders in Uganda. Given the fact that all of them are hungry for power, there's little chance of fielding one presidential candidate and joint parliamentary candidates in the 2011 general elections.

Ugandan justice not for the poor
There is a great problem in as far as the true meaning of justice is concerned in this country.
Justice has turned out to be a very expensive commodity that can be found in a private market, causing a big dichotomy between the haves and have-nots.
Recently, the government pardoned two big tycoons (Sudhir Ruparelia and Hassan Basajjabalaba) of their tax obligations. In contrast, poor locals in Busoga are lamenting about the peanut pay an investor is paying them in compensation for their land that was given away by NAADS.
I keep wondering whether this nation is not really owned by the minority tycoons whose influence has always weighed down on the shoulders of justice.
The words of the wise Mahatma Gandhi ring very true in this case. He once said, "Justice that love gives is surrender. Justice that law gives is punishment".
Who will defend the poor from injustice and exploitation? Who will pardon the poor that are rotting in prisons for failing to pay as little as Shs 200,000?
We are looking up to the government because it should be our 'David' who helps us every time a 'Goliath' arises to defy our constitutional rights.

Is Umeme recouping losses from customers?
On May 5, 2009, UMEME disconnected our electricity and the reason given was: "Fake Seals" on the meter.
I went to Umeme offices at Lugogo the same day to seek an explanation because it was only Umeme officials who had had access to the meter box which is in a gated compound.
The staff there insisted that our meter must have fake seals and I was asked to pay a fine of Shs390,938 before being reconnected. I paid the money after trying [unsuccessfully] to plead our innocence.
On May 8, two gentlemen from Umeme came to reconnect the electricity. I repeated my plea and asked them to cross-check the meter once again. The meter plus its seal turned out to be original and genuine!
Why are Umeme staff so rude to customers as if they are doing us a favour? If I am paying for a service and you find a problem with me, why not be polite instead of handling me like a criminal? There may be many power thieves out there but there are also many honest customers. How come one set of Umeme officials finds our seal to be fake and the other finds them okay?
Is this some sick Umeme joke to make extra money? Have some of us become buffers whenever Umeme experiences losses?

Divine backing is no excuse to dodge law
I never had a problem with the IGG snubbing Parliament's Appointments Committee for the simple reason that while the Constitution is clear on the appointment of the IGG, it is silent on re-appointment. Article 233 states that the IGG shall be appointed by the President with the approval of Parliament. This happened in 2005. The IGG has a point when she reasons that ministers are vetted once. Why is her case different?
Parliamentarians have also failed to live up to her expectations. They succumbed to a Shs5 million bribe to alter the constitution. Why would one respect such an institution that always falls prey to the executive?
My problem, however, is Faith Mwondha's claim that her role as the country's Ombudsman is divinely ordained and as such she cannot be subjected to any probe. Well, Jesus Christ was divinely sent to save humanity from sin, yet that did not stop him from being baptized by John the Baptist. Actually John tried all he could to deter Jesus from the process but he replied "......it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness" (Matt 3:15). Being divinely appointed should not be used as an excuse to avoid due process of the law.

Best Doctors 2018: SLUCare Physicians Named To St. Louis Magazine List
by Maggie Rotermund
St. Louis Magazine has released its 2018 Best Doctors issue, revealing the area's top physicians as selected by other doctors. The list includes physicians representing SLUCare Physician Group across more than 40 different specialties.
Michael Lim, a SLUCare cardiologist, graces the cover of the 2018 Best Doctors issue of St. Louis Magazine. Photo by St. Louis Magazine.
In addition to the SLUCare doctors who made the Best Doctors List, the magazine also featured a number of stories about the research coming out of Saint Louis University School of Medicine.
George Grossberg, M.D., director of geriatric psychiatry at SLU, was interviewed for a story on new therapies for Alzheimer's patients. The article highlighted SLU's participation in a multi-center Phase II/III clinical trial which will test the safety and efficacy of an investigational drug's ability to slow the decline of brain function and possibly delay or prevent Alzheimer's disease in those at risk for Alzheimer's disease who do not yet have symptoms of the illness.
A story on how St. Louis is a leading location for cancer research featured Daniela Salvemini, Ph.D., a professor of pharmacology and physiology at SLU, and her team's success in an animal model in turning off the excruciating pain that often accompanies a colorectal cancer drug. St. Louis Magazine also highlighted Salvemini's work in finding relief for pain associated with bone cancer.
Terry Moore, M.D., director of the adult and pediatric Rheumatology divisions at SLU, was interviewed about his 30-year career researching arthritis.
Other SLU research highlighted in the Best Doctors issue of St. Louis Magazine included:
Findings from Sergey Korolev, Ph.D., associate professor of biochemistry and molecular biology, and his team that they have determined the structure of a key protein that is involved in the body's inflammatory response. This finding opens the door to developing new treatments for a wide range of illnesses, from heart disease, diabetes and cancer to neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease.
The creation of an Extended Stay Research Unit housed in Salus Center. The facility will allow SLU to take its vaccine research to the next level, said Daniel Hoft, M.D., Ph.D., director of SLU's Center for Vaccine Development.
The SLU Memory Clinic, led by Max Zubatsky, Ph.D., provides support — including free screenings, counseling, and caregiver support groups— to Alzheimer's patients and their families.
Photos of SLUCare physicians and 2018 Best Doctors Ken Haller, M.D., professor of pediatrics, and Michael Lim, M.D., professor of cardiology, were also included. Lim's photo was chosen for the cover of the magazine.
The list is based on the annual "Best Doctors in America" database, which considers more than one million peer evaluations to create a directory of approximately 40,000 doctors, from 40 medical specialties and 400 subspecialities.
Founded by Harvard Medical School physicians in 1989, Best Doctors, Inc., helps identify outstanding physicians across a range of medical specialties.
Selected SLU Care Physicians in Pediatrics:
SLUCare Pediatrics, based at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital, is dedicated to partnering with patients, their families and the community to meet children's physical, emotional and developmental needs.

Orthopedic Associates News
As an orthopedic surgeon with decades of experience, Dr. Larson remains on the forefront of surgical state-of-the-art procedures.
A Joint Effort in Getting Patients Back to the Activities They Love
"I like to find out what's important to my patients." – Dr. Thomas Larson
The doctor describes himself as someone who is "mechanically minded." So it should come as no surprise to hear that Dr. Thomas Larson is not only an orthopedic surgeon, but one who also has a special interest in joint replacement of the hip, knee and shoulder; partial knee replacement; resurfacing of the hip and shoulder; and arthroscopy of the knee and shoulder.
Dr. Larson's enthusiasm for the practice, and the advances made in orthopedic surgery is evident.
"I think one of the greatest developments is our ability to offer outpatient surgery," he says. "Patients can actually have their surgery and go home the same day. We have better post-operative pain control options and technology that allows us to make smaller incisions, and incur faster recover times."
As an orthopedic surgeon with decades of experience, Dr. Larson remains on the forefront of surgical state-of-the-art procedures. One of his specialties is the Birmingham Hip Resurfacing, a surgical alternative to total hip replacement. He describes it as "a great option for active, younger adults who suffer from hip arthritis. BHR lasts longer than a traditional hip replacement, and has fewer activity restrictions after the surgery."
Dr. Larson is keenly aware of the integral connection between doctor and patient. An avid snowboarder, Larson has an empathetic perspective toward learning about the activities that a patient once enjoyed.
"As a surgeon, it's important to me that I get to know the person I'm operating on – finding out what's important to them, and how their condition or injury has affected their life. One of the more rewarding aspects of my job is working on a plan that will help them get back to their former activities and lifestyle as quickly as possible."
Why Orthopedic Associates of Middletown? In a word, people. "I was interested in joining this practice because of the people and doctors who are in it. There is a special sense of camaraderie that exists between all the providers here." Dr. Larson and his wife have been Connecticut residents for 11 years. In his spare time, he enjoys golf, cooking, travel, and snowboarding at Butternut Mountain in Massachusetts.
