James W. Ratcliff, DPM
Podiatrist & Foot and Ankle Surgeon located in Los Gatos, CA
A neuroma is a condition that can cause tingling and burning pain in between your toes. If you notice symptoms of a neuroma, book an appointment with experienced podiatrist James W. Ratcliff, DPM, in Los Gatos, California. Dr. Ratcliff offers personalized treatment for a wide range of foot problems and can help eliminate your pain and restore your health. To learn more, call or schedule your visit online today.
What is a neuroma?
A neuroma refers to benign growth of nerve tissue that typically occurs between your third and fourth toes. A neuroma causes the tissue near your nerve to thicken, resulting in burning pain, tingling, and numbness. Neuromas can cause pain between your toes as well as in the ball of your foot.
Many people compare the pain caused by neuromas to having a stone stuck in the bottom of your shoe.
What causes a neuroma?
The exact cause of a neuroma isn’t always clear. Neuromas typically develop in response to pressure or irritation to the nerves near your toes. Certain factors can increase your chances of developing a neuroma like wearing high heels or ill-fitting shoes, or experiencing injuries or repetitive trauma from activities like running or playing basketball.
Having a foot deformity like bunions, hammertoe, or flat feet can also increase your chances of developing a neuroma.
When should I see a doctor about a neuroma?
Without proper treatment, the pain caused by your neuroma can continue to worsen. If you notice symptoms lasting longer than a few days, book an appointment with Dr. Ratcliff. He offers timely diagnostics and can determine the most effective way to relieve your pain.
How are neuromas treated?
Before recommending treatment, Dr. Ratcliff begins with a thorough evaluation. In addition to a physical exam, Dr. Ratcliff may perform imaging tests like an X-ray or ultrasound to properly diagnose your condition.
Typically, treatment for neuromas begins with conservative options like footwear changes, over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication, or orthotics. Custom orthotics are an effective way to address painful neuromas by relieving pressure on the affected nerve.
Reducing activities like running, jogging, or playing high-impact sports can also help relieve your pain.
Dr. Ratcliff also offers alcohol sclerosis injections, a nonsurgical treatment that can eliminate your pain and prevent the neuroma from growing. In some cases, Dr. Ratcliff may recommend surgery to decompress or remove the affected nerve.
Dr. Ratcliff offers personalized care and works with you to determine the right solution for you. To find out which treatment is right for your condition, book your appointment by phone or online today.

Report Date: December 2, 2019
I For one am extremely pleased with the “fall” weather we are having here in Crystal River, Florida. Wearing a jacket or sweatshirt in the morning and then by 10am peeling that off for a very comfortable 70 degree day is something that I look forward too every year. The best part about the increased temperature fluctuation is that the fishing also becomes very favorable for those wanting to fill the cooler with Speckled Trout and Redfish. The Speckled Trout decide to move into the shallow flats surrounding mangrove point where we are targeting those with a white DOA cal Jerk bait that is Nose Hooked with no weight. This bait can catch you a full inshore slam in a single day here in Crystal River and that is why we throw them.
Our main target for the next couple months are going to be the speckled trout and once the tide is right we will be targeting the redfish. Unless we are fishing in our “mud boat” we’ll have to wait on the tide to have enough water to get into the mangrove forests where the redfish lay throughout the winter time. That we will get into later, as for the trout we will be targeting those around kelp beds that are holding onto hard bottom. Whether the trout are laying in the kelp or on the outskirts we are throwing that nose hooked white jerk bait mentioned above. The twitch, twitch, and pause, retrieve has been our go to for this time of year since our fish seem to like that bait moving a little slower than normal. If we are not getting the bites that I am looking for I will have my clients slow down even more to let that bait lay on the bottom or in the Kelp beds for at least 5 seconds before twitching it again. These trout can be targeted by drifting across these kelp beds with hard bottom or by simply anchoring next to them and casting in and around them. There are days where those fish will be so thick in one certain area that a quick limit can be caught in no time.
The Redfishing this time of year is some of my personal favorite for the sole fact that we are targeting larger redfish in shallower waters. There is nothing like seeing an upper slot to over slot redfish roll over onto your shrimp as he sucks it off the bottom and then when he turns away, setting the hook like bill dance does. There are a lot of people who catch redfish all over the state of Florida and the United States but this is one of the only places we can consistently target these redfish in the shallow water that surrounds the deeper pockets back in the mangroves. This brings us to our next subject, The Mud Boat. This is a specialized piece of machinery that is made to run in extremely shallow water and in some instances over completely dry patches of “land.” This trip usually only lasts for the lowest part of the tides in the winter time, however, that is the only time you need sense we are practically fishing in a controlled area the whole time where these Redfish and Speckled Trout are trapped at the low tides. I will show some pictures of this boat so that you can have a sneak peak at that fishing that will be coming up within the next couple months. Since we have acquired this boat we will also be offering duck hunts as the winter season approaches us. If you are interested in either of these trips, the “Mud Boat Fishing or Mud Boat Duck Hunting,” give me a call and we will set it up.
As for our regular skiff fishing we are looking forward to having a great December and hope that we can share it with you. Don’t forget about spring break as it is not very far away and I am booking up my late February, March, and April as we speak. To get in on the Spring fishing action give me call or send me a quick email to check availability. Hope everyone had a great thanksgiving and has an every better Christmas. Happy Holidays!!!

where one has a longing for pooping so much they make their entire life out to be some what of a shit fest and tell everyone about how much they love to shit. They have many fecal matter smeared all over the toilet and sometimes deny that they have to poop and then laugh in front of less fortunate people that don't have to poop at the time. Many people with pooping syndrome get diagnosed by their selves in their own home. The leftover people with the pooping syndrome tend to believe that they are in fact the shit and tell everyone that until they are diagnosed by a highly skilled professional: AKA a proctologist. Many people dont relate to people with pooping syndrome because of one or more of the following facts about the people with pooping syndrome:
1. pooping syndrome people often dont wash their hands after they wipe, whether they get any fecal matter
on their hands or not.
syndrome people definitely have to poop in public places often(part of the syndrome) and fart very loud when doing so.
3. people with the syndromE also plan their poops and most of them hate to poop at home unless there are a lot of people around. Most of the time they just have to migrate the the most populated areas and take a shadoobie
just to get their poop out and be inappropriate with their farting.
4. people with this syndrome also tend to have wet farts a lot aka THE SHART
5. they also fart on their hands as much as they can and then prepare food and shove pre-poops into their mouths with their dirty hands.

Trophic links and the relationship between predator and prey body sizes in food webs
The relationship between predator and prey body sizes is an important property of food webs with potential implications for community dynamics and ecosystem functioning. To shed more light on this issue I here analyze the relationships between prey size, predator size and trophic position of consumers, using body size estimates of 697 species in 52 food webs. First I show that the relationship between predator and prey body sizes across many systems can be different from, and potentially obscure the true relationship within systems. More specifically, when data from all webs are aggregated average prey size is positively correlated to predator size with a regression slope less than unity, suggesting that predators become less similar in size to their average prey the larger the predator is, and consequently that the relative size difference between a predator and its prey should increase with the trophic position of the consumer. However, despite this I find the predator-prey body mass ratio to be negatively correlated to the trophic position of the consumer within many webs. The reason for this is that the across-webs pattern is not representative for the within-web relationship. Second, I show that the pattern observed is not compatible with a simple null-model for the distribution of trophic links between predators and prey. The observed relationship between predator size and mean prey size is for most webs significantly steeper than that predicted by the cascade model. Furthermore, the observed relationship also deviates significantly (but less so) from an ecologically more realistic model for the distribution of trophic links (the niche model). The results contradict the traditional Eltonian paradigm that predator-prey body mass ratios do not vary consistently across trophic levels. It is concluded that more studies are needed to establish the generality of the results and explore its dynamical implications.

The patch disables time limits in the beta's Sinai Desert Conquest mode, meaning games will now run indefinitely until one team reaches the full 250 points limit.Finally, EA also announced that the beta would begin "simulating extreme launch situations" to test the game's servers, which may result in downtime. It's not clear whether this stress test will run for the duration of the beta - we've contacted EA for comment on that.
The beta has suffered major server downtime already, although that appeared to be the result of a hacking group attack.After the beta ends, it's a short wait for the main event - Battlefield 1 launches worldwide on October 21.
Joe Skrebels is IGN's UK News Editor, and he could spend days on the roof of that one house at Sinai Desert's really remote capture point. Sniper heaven. Follow him on Twitter.

Masterpiece 8" Pez Dispenser Dunny - Kidrobot - Basquiat
About Masterpiece 8" Pez Dispenser Dunny - Kidrobot - Basquiat
Kidrobot continues their collection featuring the art of Jean-Michel Basquiat. This Dunny features the 1984 work, Pez Dispenser. Kidrobot introduced the sold-out Jean-Michel Basquiat Dunny Art Figure Series in 2018 followed by three Masterpiece Dunnys, bringing the ground-breaking art of Basquiat to a new generation.
Jean-Michel Basquiat is one of the best-known artists of his generation and is widely considered one of the most important artists of the 20th century. His career in art spanned the late 1970s through the 1980s until his death in 1988, at the age of 27.
Basquiat works are edgy and raw, and through a bold sense of color and composition, he maintains a fine balance between seemingly contradictory forces such as control and spontaneity, menace and wit, urban imagery, and primitivism. The Basquiat brand embodies the values and aspirations of young, international urban culture. More details on Masterpiece 8" Pez Dispenser Dunny - Kidrobot - Basquiat:

American actor and filmmaker Benjamin Affleck aka Ben Affleck is one of the iconic Hollywood stars who is also suffering with severe alcohol addiction. As we all know that Batman star Ben has already served his time in the rehab twice but little did we know that the previous trips to de-addiction centre won't help the 1993 hit Dazed and Confused actor.
Ben Affleck began drinking again with alleged love-interest and Playboy model Shauna Sexton
46-year-old actor began drinking alone and with alleged partner and Playboy model Shauna Sexton this week before Ben called for help and went back to rehab for battling alcohol-addiction.
Affleck’s legally wedded wife Jennifer Garner, who is the mother of Ben’s three children, came to the rescue and drove him to a rehab centre on Wednesday. As per the reports, this will be the third time in the past 17 years when Ben has reached out to a rehab centre for quitting alcohol.
"Ben was having a really tough time," a source revealed. "He continues to battle addiction. He reached out for help this week," added the source.
Days before this mishap, Affleck was seen outside of his house appearing to receive a delivery of a Pacifico beer box filled with unidentifiable bottles, a smaller box, a bottle of Blue Label and a brown paper bag.
"Ben was doing well for the last few months and very committed to his sobriety. But recently he started to slip up and began drinking again. He wrapped his movie and had some downtime," a source close to the actor said. "This week, he was heavily drinking alone at home and with the Playboy model. Jen had family in town and a lot going on but she was well aware of what was going on. She saw the photo of the alcohol being delivered to his house and knew he was home all day and that was the breaking point," added the insider.
So, it won’t be wrong to say that Garner is more than soon-to-be-ex-wife in Ben’s life. And Ben is fortunate enough for accepting the flaws in his character and for having such a caring ex-wife.

Broadway star Nick Cordero’s right leg will be amputated amid his battle with coronavirus.
Cordero’s wife, celebrity trainer Amanda Kloots, made the difficult announcement Saturday via her Instagram Story.
She explained that Cordero, who’s been sedated for 18 days, has been experiencing issues with clotting and getting blood to his toes on his right foot. He was put on blood thinners, but had to be taken off them after they caused blood pressure issues and internal bleeding in his intestines.
“We took him off the blood thinners, but that again was going to cause the clotting in the right leg,” Kloots wrote. “So the right leg will be amputated today.”
Cordero was nominated for a Tony and a Drama Desk award for his role in “Bullets Over Broadway” in 2014.
His wife has been providing updates on his battle with COVID-19. On Thursday, following surgery to get the blood flow down to his toes, the former Rockette expressed her uncertainty about whether the “Rock of Ages” star would walk again.
At that time, she said Cordero had been removed from the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation machine but remained ventilated.
“The next hours coming up are very important, because the heart and lung are running on their own now for the first time in a couple of days. His right leg is still an issue," she explained. “We don’t know, if he can walk again, what that will look like.”
Last weekend, following Cordero’s admission to the ICU, Kloots asked people to pray for him while he’s “fighting for his life right now."
A GoFundMe has been set up to support the couple as they navigate hospital bills, and a nightly dance-off takes place remotely in fans use the hashtag #wakeupnick and film themselves dancing to his music.

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) became the second team in IPL history to win the title five times as they beat the defending champions Gujarat Titans in the final of the 2023 edition of the tournament. It was a remarkable turnaround for the MS Dhoni-led side after finishing in the bottom two in the 2022 edition of the IPL. Not just the on-field issues with the combinations, team balance and form of the players, CSK had off-field issues as well given that Dhoni got back the captaincy midway through the tournament after having stepped down from the role before the start of the season.
CSK won just two games out of the eight played after Jadeja was passed on the baton but he gave it back to Dhoni as the captaincy was burdening him and he couldn't give his 100 per cent as the player too. After the season ended, there were strong rumours that Jadeja had a rift with Dhoni after captaincy was taken from him and that he could be released by CSK.
However, all that was put to rest as the management intervened and both Dhoni and Jadeja talked it out to resolve the differences. Now, senior CSK batter Ambati Rayudu, who retired from IPL after the 2023 edition has revealed that Jadeja wasn't upset with Dhoni but with the lack of results for CSK last year.
“I don't think Jaddu (Jadeja) was upset with Mahi bhai at all. It was just that he was sad because the team wasn't doing great. Everyone's performances that year were not coming up to the mark,” Rayudu said on BehindWoodsTV's Youtube channel.
“He (Dhoni) has put this team and has made Jaddu (Jadeja) what he is today. He has nurtured him for what, 10-12 years. So he would naturally be happy that the product that he made has won the final for CSK after whatever happened last year,” he further added.
Jadeja, who was the hero for CSK with the bat in the final with a four and a six in the last two deliveries, dedicated the win to MS Dhoni after he jumped onto the skipper for an emotional hug after the Men in Yellow clinched their fifth title.
While Dhoni is set to continue to lead the side in the next season as well, Rayudu has picked Ruturaj Gaikwad as the legendary skipper's successor at CSK given that he has led Maharashtra in domestic cricket and will be leading India at the Asian Games 2023.

Locust Light Farm in Solebury cultivates with your health in mind
Amanda Midkiff cut the long stalks of a marshmallow plant while explaining its benefits.
“Marshmallow is good for mucus, throat issues, intestinal issues,” said the Solebury medicinal herbalist. “We use it in teas and smoking blends.”
Midkiff and Jamie Sims are in their second year cultivating medicinal herbs on a 65-plus acre tract off Greenhill Road called Locust Light Farm. They have two plots planted, each about a half-acre in size with various herbs.
There's mugwort and pennyroyal used for lucid dreams and lifting spirits. There's raspberries, whose leaves are used to promote women's health. There's St. John's Wort, another mood-lifter, yarrow which “is an astringent. It soaks up extra fluid,” said Midkiff.
There's catnip and mints for stomach upsets. And there's hyssop used by the Native Americans for colds, flus and “magic,” she said.
“It smells like a cleaning product and it works that way in the body.”
In total, they're growing 75 different varieties of herbs, many of them experimental such as the Oregon grape plant, which is similar to goldenseal and used as an anti-inflammatory. “We're still expanding things,” she said.
Midkiff is an organic farmer who helped start the nearby Roots to River Farm, which is where she and Sims met. A self-taught horticulturist, Midkiff also had an interest in herbs, she said.
“I love working with herbs,” she said on a sweltering July afternoon. “There's so much to learn and so many ways to use them.”
In addition to cultivating the plants, Midkiff does workshops at local yoga studios. They sell their blends by subscriptions, using several local Community Supported Agricultural farms as drop-off points.
“Response has been good,” she said. “People are excited.”
So far, Locust Light Farm has 25 subscribers. They hope to quadruple that number and beef up the number of workshops they run.
“It's still small,” said Sims.
But they're working on getting the word out. Two tours are planned for this month — July 14 and July 24 — where visitors can wander through the gardens, learn about the benefits of the herbs, then harvest what they want to purchase to take with them. An open house is slated for August and a workshop at the Bucks County Audubon Society is planned for September.
Midkiff and Sims use an old smokehouse on the farm to dry the herbs, laying the stalks on bedsheets that cover wooden-framed screens or inside a handmade drying rack cabinet. It takes up to a week for the herbs to dry. Then they rub the dried plants against the screens, catching the particles in a five-gallon bucket in a process called garbling.
The drying process has proved to be one of their biggest challenges, said Sims.
“We're only harvesting a quarter of what we're growing,” he said.
The remains are collected in jars or bags and sold as tea or smoking blends.
“Everything is much more flavorful,” than what's sold commercially, said Midkiff.
“It's insanely better,” added Sims. “It's amazing.”

Published Jun 17, 2010Having won the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance and almost unilateral praise from critics, Winter's Bone has the makings of being this summer's alternative programming, word-of-mouth gem, for those a little numb to supremacist superhero movies and Peter Pan boy comedies. It's the sort of taut, intelligent adult thriller that Americans stopped making 30 years ago, only this time with a welcome non-preachy, pseudo-feminist slant and desiccated Western mythological backdrop.
Just as Debra Granik's previous unsentimental and uncompromising tale of drug addiction, Down to the Bone, brought Vera Farmiga into the limelight, this story of a strong-willed Ozark mountain girl braving anarchic social terrain to find her missing father is sure to make Jennifer Lawrence a household name.
Now, simply mentioning the premise doesn't do the film justice, as one needs to watch the series of unpredictable and increasingly unsettling events unfold to understand just why her quest is so dangerous and foreboding. Her motivations are clear, having two younger siblings to look after, with the threat of homelessness dependent on finding her father (he put their home up for bail and then promptly disappeared), but just where he is and why it's so difficult to find him is where the mystery occurs.
While Granik's script has an ear for white trash dialogue and her unembellished direction serves the candid action and tense character interactions well, the one major issue is that of grating contrivance in the third act. A change of heart from a reluctant uncle (played by John Hawkes) and a bizarre sense of order and hierarchy amongst drug-addicted mountain folk are somewhat inorganic and threaten to betray the previously built-up naturalism and authenticity of the piece.
Thankfully, Lawrence's grounded, tough-as-nails portrayal of a single-minded teenager wise beyond her years greatly overcompensates for this, making these flaws incidental and almost irrelevant. And what's more is that this film about ungoverned space without laws, political correctness or consequence isn't set in a dystopian future, rather, it's here and now, which is what's most affecting and terrifying.

Several tours will be organised to Sfax’s archeological sites and historic monuments, as well as to the Gabes oases during the 1st Sfax New Cruising Destination, due October 11, in a bid to promote the Tunisian heritage among cruise tourists.
On the agenda of the forum, which is part of the Tunisian southern governorates’ regional development strategies and promotion of its heritage, tours to the Mdina of Sfax, the El Jem amphitheatre, the Sbeitla site, the Younga castle in Mahress and the Kerkennah Islands known by the unique fishing method “Charfia,” which has been included in the UNESCO intangible cultural heritage.
The forum will see the participation of many international officials, such as expert in cruise tourism for 25 years Caroline Valadié, who will give an overview of the opportunities of hosting cruise ships in the port of Sfax and the expectations of cruise passengers in terms of cultural and archaeological visits. She will also talk about the tools to be developed so that Sfax becomes an unmissable destination in the Mediterranean.
The Association Sfax International, which brings together all the economic structures of the city of Sfax (UTICA – CONECT – CCIS – UPMI – Business Centre – Sfax Technopole – University of Sfax , etc.), launched the project several months ago to make of Sfax a cruise hub for the whole of the southern Tunisian region.
The forum will convene all the tourism and regional economy stakeholders to discuss the new development and investment opportunities that arise through the cruise tourism activity, and its impact on the potential for creating high value-added jobs in the region of Sfax but also in the regions of Kasserine (Sbeïtla), Mahdia, El Jem and Gabes.
The event is organised in collaboration with the Office of Merchant Navy and Ports (OMMP), the Tunisian Federation of Travel and Tourism Agencies (FTAV) and the Deposit and Consignment Fund (CDC).

PUTRAJAYA - Deputy Minister In the Prime Minister's Department Mohamed Hanipa Maidin suffered from a fainting spell while attending the department's monthly gathering.
This caused him to fall from the temporary stage while Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad was addressing the crowd.
Dr Mahathir stopped his speech for several minutes while Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail came down from stage to check on Hanipa.
Those present were shocked and staff on duty immediately attended to him.
A doctor on standby provided Hanipa with medical attention before he was taken by ambulance for further medical treatment.
According to The Sun Daily, Hanipa, 48, had previously suffered a stroke and underwent a surgery for brain haemorrhage in 2016.

Every time I have the brilliant idea to make this recipe, I remember how in love I am with the Crock-Pot. I don’t particularly enjoy cooking, but I very much enjoy a tasty meal. My Crock-Pot helps me out on both counts. This particular recipe is one of the easiest I have. Three ingredients, one crock, and hours of having to do nothing but smell the good smells.
There is nothing that hits the spot on a rainy, cold fall day better than a nice big bowl of soup. When that bowl of soup is covered in cheese, it’s even better. When that bowl of soup is covered in cheese and has that sweet tart taste of fall apple cider, then it’s probably the best bowl of soup ever. I found this soup a couple of years ago and have made a few tweaks to it over the years. It is fall awesome-ness in a bowl. There just isn’t any other way to describe it. If you love French onion soup and your favorite part of fall is the apple cider, then this is definitely for you.

World Health Organisation (WHO) has launched new recommendations based on new evidence that has emerged that can improve the care of preterm or low birth weight babies.
This comes as the world commemorates World Prematurity Day, which falls on November 17 annually.
“There are 25 recommendations which substantially expand the ‘what’, ‘where’ and ‘how’ for improving the survival, health and well-being of preterm and low birth weight babies. This includes Kangaroo Mother Care and involving families in the care of their babies right from the time of birth,” reads part of the WHO statement on World Prematurity Day.
According to WHO, globally an estimated 15 million babies are born too early every year, “Approximately 1 million children die each year due to complications of preterm birth. Many surviving babies face a lifetime of disability, including learning disabilities and visual and hearing problems.”
Save the Children Malawi website says one-third (37 percent) of all newborn deaths in Malawi result from direct complications of prematurity. To prevent these deaths, it says, the Government of Malawi has prioritised Kangaroo Mother Care (KMC) as part of efforts to increase access to quality health services for mothers and children.
A new study by Save the Children in partnership with the Ministry of Health provides evidence that the customized (KMC) is highly acceptable to mothers and contributes to improved skin-to-skin practices in comparison to the traditional wrap chitenje.

Earthquake Predictor Frank Hoogerbeets Halts Services, Cites Gaza Conflict as Reason
Frank Hoogerbeets, the Earthquake Predictor: Missing from Public Scene
Renowned Dutch researcher, Frank Hoogerbeets, widely acclaimed for his earthquake predictions in the Middle East, has not been seen publicly for a number of months. This mystifying hiatus has sparked curiosity among his followers. However, recent declarations have illuminated his reasons for this sudden withdrawal.
The Gaza Conflict and Hoogerbeets’ Viewpoint
In light of the ongoing conflict in Gaza, Hoogerbeets has expressed profound disquiet about the situation. He has publicly denounced the actions of Israeli forces towards Palestinians, labeling these acts as ‘genocide’. In his view, providing earthquake predictions while such horrific acts are taking place is futile, leading him to temporarily suspend his prediction services.
Statement on an Online Platform
Hoogerbeets took our platform to express his views. Herein, he shed light on the death of over 10,000 ordinary citizens in Gaza. He has strongly censured the validation of land acquisition by the Zionist Organization, tracing its roots back to 1948.
Last Public Appearance
Hoogerbeets was last seen in public back in November of 2023. He utilized this platform to lobby for a ceasefire in Gaza, pressing the importance of addressing the ongoing humanitarian crisis.

Illinois Collects Another $1.6M From Late-Vehicle Fines
Illinois collected another $1.6 million from late-vehicle registration fines in April to more than double its year-to-date haul from the same period last year as residents go without renewal reminders because there's no budget.
Last month's fines bring the total this year to $6.5 million.
Illinois collected nearly $3 million in fines during the same four-month span last year.
The Illinois Secretary of State's office provided the figures to The Associated Press. The office stopped mailing renewal reminders in October to save an estimated $450,000 a month on postage.
Officials there have encouraged residents to sign up for electronic reminders. So far, 2.1 million people have signed up for email reminders, one million more than were signed up last year.
Pending legislation would suspend the fines until reminders can be mailed again.

The Washington Post’s, Hal Hinson picked up on the depth of her performance, noting that Bening’s Hill “reveals both the uncompromising toughness of a woman who's used sex to get what's she's wanted out of life, and the vulnerability that comes from knowing you can go around the track only so many times before the mileage starts to show.” The Golden Globes agreed nominating Ms. Bening for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture [Drama].

OverviewCulled from the author's journal during a six-month visit to Mykonos in 1972, the first sequence of poems in this collection express enthusiasm and sheer delight with the Greek landscape and people, yet occasionally refer to the rule of the military junta at that time. The second set of verses, written more than 20 years later, marks Lourie's return to a liberated Greece and reflects more literary irony, refined appreciation for the island's inner life, and continuing admiration melded with a touch of mystic beauty. A multifaceted poetic tour of Greece and the Aegean islands, this gathering is completed by watercolor miniatures created by the author.
Author BiographyIven Lourie is a writer, a poet, and the editor for Gateways Books and Artemis Books. He is a teacher at Sierra Community College and the editor of Cafe Writers Anthology 2010. His poetry and reviews have been included in numerous publications, including Miro’s Dream, SHORTS, and Yuba Flows. He lives in Penn Valley, California.

Police begin ‘Click it or Ticket’ effort
Henrico student recognized for poster design
Local and state police gathered May 24 at Richmond International Raceway to promote their participation in the national ‘Click It or Ticket’ program and recognize a Henrico student for her poster, which will be used to promote the program locally.
Dumbarton Elementary School fifth-grader Valeriz Castellar received a $100 check and special certificate for her winning 'Click It Or Ticket' poster design from Henrico County police Chief Doug Middleton and Sgt. Jim Livingstone from the Fraternal Order of Police No. 4 during the kick-off event at Richmond International Raceway.
“I love art a lot, I do,” Castellar said. “Thinking about doing something that I really like and getting money for what I love is neat.”
The contest was open to all fifth-grade students in Henrico County School District, said Lt. A.J. Gordon of the Henrico police. Art teachers from each school picked a winner, and Middleton and his staff chose Castellar’s poster from the seven winning posters.
“We figure the children are the future, and we can get them to promote seatbelt and child restraint safety among themselves and their families,” Gordon said. Click It or Ticket promotes seat belt and child safety seat use.
Henrico Police were joined by officers from Police, James City Police, Virginia State Police, New Kent Sheriff’s Office, York-Poquoson Sheriff’s Office and Chesterfield Police to promote national Click It Or Ticket Mobilization May 21 – June 3 and the Memorial Day weekend Route 60 Blitz May 25.
As part of the mobilization and blitz there will be an increased presence of officers from all jurisdictions along Route 60. The blitz began in 2006 on the suggestion of Lt. Lee Bailey of the New Kent County Sheriff’s Office, according to Gordon.
During 2011 Memorial Day weekend, 10 people died on Virginia roadways, Gordon said. Of those, two were children and three adults who were not restrained. In all there was a total of 764 traffic related deaths in Virginia last year, and of those 306 were unrestrained.
“If they’d have been wearing their seat belts they probably would have survived,” Gordon said.
A survey conducted in Henrico prior to the Click It or Ticket campaign showed that 79 percent of drivers in Henrico had been wearing seat belts, Gordon said, adding that officials hope to increase that percentage to 82 or 83 through enforcement and education efforts.
The 2011 state usage rate was 81 percent, said Mary Ann Rayment of the Department of Motor Vehicles Virginia Office of Motor Safety. State officials would like to improve that to 82.5 percent, she said, but reaching that number will require the effort of all Virginians.
“We hope it won’t take a traffic stop to get you to buckle up,” she said. “But we are here to help get you to your destinations in one piece.”

Champions League Group D profile: Atletico attractive but hard to look past Ancelotti’s Bayern
Robbie Purves | September 5, 2016
Champions League Group D profile
With European football back on our screens this September, Coral experts give Champions League Group D tips, as we examine all eight pools for the best punts and profile the teams, players and coaches.
Despite there being no Premier League interest is this pool, the group is highly interesting with heavyweight German giants Bayern Munich and last year’s Champions League finalists Atletico Madrid set to slug it out for superiority.
Munich come into the competition as understandable favourites to claim the group’s top spot, while Diego Simeone’s Atleti are a close second. That leaves PSV Eindhoven and Russians Rostov to battle for the pool’s scraps.
The Bavarian outfit are five-time winners of the competition and have made its final three times in the last six years.
When Pep Guardiola took over in 2013, many had the German giants as nailed on to lift at least one Champions League, but fell short three years on the bounce. Guardiola took the Allianz Arena outfit to three consecutive semi-finals, but failed in his endeavour to transfer his Barcelona European form to Germany.
However, now under the calming presence of Carlo Ancelotti, Bayern need to be taken seriously as challengers for the top prize.
Ancelotti is a serial winner and collector of European trophies, the Italian is the only manager to have won the Champions League three times and reach four finals. As a result, Bayern are 4/1 with Coral to lift the prize this term.
Bavaria’s best have finished top in each of their last three Champions League groups, and are odds-on at 1/2 to do it again this term with their rejuvenated squad.
The summer saw two quality additions to Bayern’s squad. Mats Hummels is widely regarded as one of the best centre backs in the world, and switched from rivals Borussia Dortmund to bolster an already solid defensive line. Medhi Benatia therefore, went on loan to Juventus after a difficult spell in Germany.
Meanwhile, Mario Gotze returned to Dortmund, going back to the Westfalenstadion after three years in Munich.
In midfield, Bayern acquired one of the winners and young stars of the Euros, Renato Sanches.
Diego Simeone’s side will be out to avenge yet another Champions League final defeat at the hands of city rivals Real Madrid. Atleti have made the final twice in three years, both times beaten by Los Blancos – the first of which was after a five-year absence from the competition.
Simeone is a manager that can beat any team over two-legs, shown by his semi-final away goals victory over Bayern – indicating that this group is not a foregone conclusion.
The effect El Cholo has had on the Madrid club has been huge. Once almost a joke to rivals Real, Simeone’s side have well and truly stepped out of the Los Blancos shadow, with their 2014 La Liga title win and formidable records against top teams.
This Vicente Calderon club had an injection of well needed fresh blood this summer. Kevin Gameiro, signed from Andalusian side Sevilla, scored 29 goals last term and is likely to be paired with Euro 2016 top scorer Antoine Griezmann if Simeone opts for 4-4-2 or, in the centre of a 4-3-3.
Gameiro is a solid acquisition, with his excellent link up play and finishing. Meanwhile, Luciano Vietto went the other way to Sevilla on loan and Borja Baston was sold to Swansea for £15.3m.
Another signing, Nicolas Gaitan, recorded 11 assists and 20 goals for Benfica last term and will be an arrival to keep an eye on this year.
Atleti have topped each of their last three Champions League groups and could be a great shout to pip Bayern at 7/4.
Once a winner of the European Cup, PSV haven’t had a particularly stellar time in Europe since. The Eindhoven outfit have failed to make the quarter-finals since 2007, but come into the competition this year as Eredivisie champions – securing the title on the final day of the season.
Former player and now manager Phillip Cocu, is an exciting talent that already has two consecutive Dutch league titles in three years as a senior permanent manager.
Great players do not always become great managers as the old cliche goes, but the early signs of Cocu’s career bodes well. He seems certain to be linked to huge European clubs in the near future with his flowing, attractive football and is reportedly already being looked at by Barcelona – one of his former clubs.
In terms of outgoings, only centre back Jeffrey Bruma’s tranfer to Bundesliga side Wolfsburg for £9.78m was the big departure. However, he was replaced swiftly by experienced defender Daniel Schwaab from Stuttgart.
Siem de Jong returned to the Eredivisie with a loan move from English Championship side Newcastle United. The former Ajax man joined his brother, Netherlands international and PSV captain Luuk.
Their big signing of the summer however, came with the transfer of Bart Ramselaar from Utrecht for £5.1m. The attacking midfielder recorded eight goals and seven assists last term, and will look to form a partnership with Luuk de Jong.
The Philips Stadion side are outsiders to qualify from the group at 9/2.
Rostov narrowly missed out on the Russian title last term finishing second by two points, their highest ever finish. This will be the first time the Russians will have been in Europe’s top club competition since being founded in 1930.
Kurban Berdyev, the manager that guided the side to its most successful league season and Champions League place is now gone.
Dmitri Kirichenko, assistant boss last term and current caretaker manager, is now in charge for the time being and managed to advance the club he played for as a player to the Champions League group stage through the play-offs, after Berdyev resigned half way through qualifying.
Unfortunately for the club, they lost two key players during the summer window. Centre back Ivan Novoseltsev was crucial in Rostov’s remarkable season and moved to Zenit St Petersburg for £8.50m. Miha Mevlja was subsequently bought to replace him.
Meanwhile, right back Timofey Margasov left on a free after playing 25 times last term and Striker Sardar Azmoun joined from Rubin Kazan for £1.96m after scoring nine last year.
Rostov are big outsiders at 11/1 to qualify and may find it difficult fighting on both fronts after their heroics the previous season.

Lying to the Pakistani government about secret sales agreements "could well be the beginning of our own 'Watergate' . . . in that part of the world," warned an official of McDonnell Douglas Corp. in a 1974 company memo filed late yesterday in U.S. District Court by the Justice Department.
The corporation and four top executives were indicted on Nov. 9, 1979, on fraud and consipiracy charges for allegedly paying $1.6 million in secret "commissions" on the sale of DC10 jetliners to Pakistan.
The interoffice memo and other documents were filed with the court to answer motions by the McDonnell Douglas defendants seeking dismissal of the indictments.
In one of the court filings, the government claimed that negotiations had been upset last fall when the company's chairman and founder, the then 81-year-old James S. McDonnell, came to Washington and told the government attorneys: "This [the company] is my baby, my little jewel, I cannot live with this settlement."
The memo citing "Watergate" was dated Aug. 23, 1974 -- one year after the first contracts with Pakistan were completed -- and was signed by J. D. Burns, director of commercial contracts, who is not a defendant. The memo notes that Pakistan International Airlines and the government "somehow discovered the existence" of an "agreement for representation" between the company and "the Sequeira brothers." The brothers apparently were McDonnell Douglas' agents there.
Pakistan insisted that the company deduct the disclosed $100,000-per plane commission from the contract price to the government-owned airline.
The memo, which was circulated a few weeks after President Nixon resigned, warned that company could face "Watergate" in that part of the world if McDonnell Douglas signed a secret agreement and later denied its existence.
The 1979 indictment named James S. McDonnell III, vice president of the St. Louis-based corporation; John C. Brizendine, president of Douglas Aircraft Co. of Long Beach, Calif., the corporation's main division; Charles M. Forsyth, executive vice president of Douglas Aircraft; and Sherman Pruitt Jr., sales manager of the division.
A routing slip attached to the memo filed in the court was initialed by defendants Forsyth and Pruitt, indicating they read the memo. And in another memo -- dated Aug. 23, 1974, and stamped "sensitive" -- defendant Pruitt says a secret agreement with the Sequeira brothers "would not be 'uncovered' as Mr. Burns suggests."
The indictment also charged the defendants with making false statements to the Export-Import Bank to conceal $6 million in payments to airline executives in South Korea, the Phillipines and Venezuela and to the government officials in Zaire.
The defense claimed that the law was vague and, as a result, the defendants were denied due process. But the government, in its court filings last night, introduced a memo dating back to 1971 in which Chief counsel of McDonnell Douglas states that the identity of recipients of payments "must be set forth on a certificate submitted . . . to Ex-Im Bank."

A seven-figure compensation sum has been awarded to a man who was left severely brain damaged after an accident in London.
Kyle Bullock sustained a major head injury when he fell heavily after stumbling into a pothole on Lightfoot Road, Hornsey in July 2007.
The 38-year-old Australian was walking home from a friend's house when he tripped over and his injuries were so severe that he required brain surgery, leading to him taking legal action against Homes for Haringey.
His case has now finally come to an end nearly six years after the incident after the High Court ordered the housing group to award him "substantial", undisclosed damages settlement.
Initially, Homes for Haringey denied full responsibility for Mr Bullock's life-changing injuries but has now accepted that it did not maintain the road surface to an acceptable standard, meaning the claimant was eligible for compensation.
Since the incident, the man has developed epilepsy and has now moved back to Australia so his family and friends can help in the process of his rehabilitation.
Following the case, Mr Bullock's legal representative Jill Greenfield explained that Mr Bullock has "fought hard to recover a good quality of life following such as terrible accident".
"It is truly shocking to think this could have been avoided if Homes for Haringey had filled these holes. This has to be the worst case of a pothole causing such serious injuries," she noted.
Ms Greenfield went on to say that her client's life has been "turned upside down" by the housing association's failure to keep the road in good enough condition, adding that the group could have taken several "simple steps" that would have prevented this catastrophic accident from taking place.
"I do hope they have learned lessons from this. Red tape really must not compromise residents' safety," she added.

It was shot at the Port Vale Metal Holocost Festival a one day, one off festival. the band was flown in by Concorde back to UK while on tour in North America to fill for Black Sabbath. The latter had cancelled the show, leaving the (almost) headline slot for the blizzard of Ozz. It is great to see Randy pedal board “in action” and his polka dot guitar.


LETTER: We desperately need the ‘bedroom tax’
I AM all in favour of the spare room subsidy or “bedroom tax”.
The truth is because of Labour’s appalling immigration policies and a reluctance to build houses over the last 15 years, we have a housing shortage crisis. We have thousands of families with young children crammed into one or two-bed houses, on housing waiting lists desperate for appropriate council housing, while people who have been in council housing for 15+ years have spare bedrooms. This is wrong. The system clearly needs reforming.
My wife and I and our four children, all under 12 years old, are one of these families. We are cramped into a tiny two-bed house and we can’t cope. We, and many others like us, are desperate for a council house. Council housing should be there for people like us who really need it for as long as we need it but not forever. Labour introduced this policy for privately rented accommodation and rightly so. Now the coalition is introducing it for all people on housing benefits except pensioners, adults with carers and some other exceptions, like people serving in the armed forces. We must get out of this benefits for life culture. A council house is not for life!
Also, if we’re going to get out of this position then we need to build more houses. Simple as that. But look who are campaigning against house building? Probably the same people campaigning against this benefit cut!

Scott D’Amore is no longer the TNA Wrestling President.
Per PWInsider, TNA Wrestling President Scott D’Amore has been terminated by TNA parent company Anthem Sports and Entertainment.
According to this report, TNA talent and staff will be addressed today (February 7) regarding D’Amore’s firing.
It is believed that Anthem owner Len Asper made the decision to remove D’Amore from this role, according to the report.
Anthem is reportedly expected to play a larger role in the day-to-day management and strategies of TNA Wrestling moving forward, with the idea being that the two sides will have stronger synergy and maximise what each has to offer to the other.
In a new update, TNA Wrestling has now shared a statement on the appointment of Anthem President of Entertainment Anthony Cicione as the new TNA President.
The statement reads:
Anthem Sports & Entertainment Inc., a global multi-platform media company, announced today the appointment of Anthony Cicione as the President of TNA Wrestling.
The move aims to further integrate TNA Wrestling into Anthem’s Entertainment Group, of which Cicione is the President, leveraging the entire Company’s resources to add more value in areas including production, distribution, marketing, viewership, customer acquisition, digital revenue streams, ad sales and sponsorships, digital tech operations, and more.
Cicione replaces Scott D’Amore, whose contract with Anthem has been terminated. D’Amore has been a part of TNA since 2003. He held many key leadership positions and played a vital role in the growth of the company leading to its strong industry reputation today, including the successful return of the TNA Wrestling brand in 2024. Anthem thanks him for the commitment he brought to the business, the talent, and the people who work outside the ring.
In addition to these duties as President of Entertainment, Cicione will now manage the day-to-day business operations for TNA Wrestling. He brings more than 30 years of executive-level management experience to the organization. Cicione has been with Anthem for the last 16 years, managing technical operations and multiple cable and digital channels. Prior to his time with Anthem, Cicione was a producer of sports content including catapulting The Score to success by bringing WWE to the channel.
D’Amore became the President of TNA Wrestling in March 2023, following his previous stint as an Executive Vice President.
The promotion recently just returned to its TNA Wrestling branding, with the TNA name returning officially at January’s Hard To Kill pay-per-view.
We will provide more details on the situation as they become available.

Eyerobics Pty Ltd started in 1992, firstly trading as Freedom Vision. The inspiration to start a Natural Vision Improvement company to help people improve their vision came from Bethany Alldridge. It all began when her dad who was suffering from deteriorating eyesight started to look for alternatives to wearing glasses. He came upon a book by ophthalmologist W.H. Bates that spoke of improving your eyesight naturally by doing eye exercises. Determined to help her dad improve his vision Bethany started studying the methods described by W.H. Bates.
This ophthalmologist who lived in the 1920's was a pioneer in the field of vision improvement, motivated by his findings that eye surgery and the need for wearing glasses can be prevented by strengthening and relaxing the eye muscles. W.H. Bates himself did extensive research and trials on several of his patients using his newly developed technology and was very successful. Meanwhile the optometric industry, a well established multi-million dollar industry, saw Bates' ideas as a threat to their establishment and did all they could to silence him. He was soon written out of history books, one of the reasons why many people today have not heard about natural vision improvement.
W. H. Bates was however not a very good writer and many find his books interesting and enlightening but not clear on how to implement the ideas. This was also the findings of Bethany's dad. With a lot of research and trials Bethany developed a series of exercises based on Bates instructions making his technology more available to people wanting to improve their vision naturally. Her dad improved his vision dramatically and soon many of Bethany's friends had the same astonishing results.
The next step was to help more people improve their eyesight so they too could end having to wear glasses which is often experienced as a nuisance. So Bethany started to teach the Eyerobics program in the form of seminars. Many people improved their vision dramatically no longer needing to wear their glasses or contacts. Then the idea of putting the program on a video was put forward. This would allow Bethany to help even more people. Soon a video of the program was produced.
Meanwhile the demand for the program grew as more and more people witnessed the results their friends, family members and colleagues where having. Soon Eyerobics Pty Ltd sold over 10.000 programs worldwide.
Staying with technological demands the program was made available on DVD and currently videos are no longer available.
Eyerobics has helped thousands of people regain their natural eyesight. People from all backgrounds all over the world have written us about how grateful they are for being able to improve their eyesight with this easy, risk-free and affordable method. And so can you.....
How can Eyerobics help
The Eyerobics program is a program of eye exercises based on the Bates Method.
The eye exercises are designed to address most common eye disorders by improving the function of your eye muscles and at the same time relaxing them. Improving your eye muscles enables your eyes to focus properly as your ability to focus is controlled by your eye muscles.
Find out how Eyerobics can help you regain clear eyesight.
