I’ve been making hangings using my dyed fabrics. Indigo for blues, turmeric, saffron, and henna for yellows, green persimmons (kakishibu), for pinks and browns. There are 7 hangings. I’m showing one for reference and then detail photos. I loved putting the pieces together.
Each composition is made up of fabrics that were in the same dye pot. The differences in the tones are due to the different fabrics I put into the pot. I love these subtle “colors”. The yellows were from woad plants. The browns were from green persimmons over dyed with indigo. I especially find myself liking things that have almost no color at all. One of these is from oak galls. I can’t remember all the specifics but I like to put dyed fabrics in a bath of iron water to “sadden” the color.
I’m weaving 125 fine threads per inch so I can weave another ruffle (see my gallery) which I will shibori dye with indigo. Then the ruffle will disappear and appear in the dyed and un-dyed areas. [click any photo to enlarge]
I’m trying to weave with finer-than-ever silk threads. I should have starched them first but didn’t because I didn’t realize it would be necessary. That would have made the threads stronger. There are 125 threads per inch and I made more threading errors than I’ve ever made in my life. I have spent hours correcting these almost invisible threads and have lost a few and a few have broken –there are 16 threads to date that are hanging off the back of my loom and I expect I’ll have more as I weave along. Here is a close up of the weaving and one broken thread pinned in. (I’ve been mending the threads with sewing thread so I can see them.)
I used this stand which I’d used when I was weaving velvet to rig up a way to keep all the threads from tangling. Knowing that the only thread that can’t tangle is one under tension this is what I did.
I took the threads as they came from the warp beam and made a cross to keep them in order.
While in Kyushu Island south of the main island of Japan near the town of Karume is a distinguished master craftsman kasuri dyer. Kasuri is a form of ikat and can be warp-wise or weft-wise. The threads are dyed in a pattern then put on the loom and woven. Here is a photo of Shoji Yamamura tying threads to make a pattern. Then the threads are dyed with indigo for the traditional blue and white kasuri fabrics we know. We bought one of his gorgeous pieces–a length of cloth for a kimono with the idea of splitting up the piece when we got home.
On a Saturday afternoon the three of us met to divide the fabric–over 15 yards.
Here one third has been cut off and we are about to cut off the second piece.
This is the end piece– it’s the signature of the weaver and is woven at the beginning of the length of cloth. Note that the unwoven area shows the ikat pattern that was tied in the threads. Also notable is the dyeing of the warp stripes–a specialty of this artist.
My show ends next week–I will be sad to see it come down–LAST DAY is Friday, December 4 at 3:30 pm.
It’s a show I am very proud of–40 pieces and they are very creative (if I do say so myself.)
Here are times when the gallery at the library is open to see the show. Closed Friday after Thanksgiving.
- Saturday November 28: 10–5:00
- Sunday, November 29: noon–5:00
- Monday, November 30: 10–6:00
- Tuesday, December 1: 10-noon; 1-3:00–5-7:30
- Wednesday, December 2: 10-4:00 and 5:00-7:30
- Thursday, December 3: 10-noon; 2-4:00; 7:30-9:00
- Friday, December 4 10-3:30–(Last Day!)
People who purchased items can pick them up on Saturday morning when we take the show down at 11:00 am or get them from me later.
I’m thinking of making a book with small pages of my own woven cloth dyed in indigo with clamp resist. The cloth is sheer silk I wove in a crepe weave. It is flat when it is woven and doesn’t crinkle up until it gets wet. Sometimes I wet the cloth before dying and sometimes I let it crinkle when it got wet in the dye vat. This is great fun. The pieces are mounted on small pieces of cloth about 4 1/2″ square. I love these little miniature patches and can’t wait to begin stitching them down.

The fact that our diet significantly affects our state of health is already a scientifically based concept that gets more and more validity every day. Most of us have already internalized the idea of "we are what we eat" and therefore are careful about eating well, avoiding high-fat foods, sugars, and carbohydrates and other dietary rules.
But what if we told you that even if you eat healthy foods, such as fruits and vegetables, there is a good chance that you’re still not providing your body with the number of nutrients it really needs? In addition, what if we shared that researchers have found that a significant portion of the foods we consider healthy have lost much of their nutritional value over the years and that only some of them are still full of nutrients. These are the foods that you need to incorporate in your diet…
The National Institutes of Health and the US Department of Health and Human Services define Nutrient-Dense Foods as foods that provide the body with the highest amount of nutrients and at the same time have a relatively low caloric value. These are completely natural foods that have not been over-processed by humans, as opposed to many other foods that have undergone various chemical changes and have been filled with unwanted ingredients.
But what does that mean? Take the potato, one of the most beloved and popular vegetables, which has always been considered healthy and nutritious, but a review done in Canada in 2002 indicated a dramatic decline in the level of materials In comparison with a 50-year period, it was found that at this time the modern potato had lost almost all the vitamin A it once held, 57% of its vitamin C and iron content, 28% of its average calcium content, and 18% of its thiamine content. 25 additional vegetables and fruits were tested in the same way, and there were disturbing findings. For example, the level of calcium in broccoli, which is considered to be a particularly healthy food, has dropped by 63 percent over the last few centuries.
How and why exactly has this happened? It must be admitted that the "culprits" here are mainly human beings, or, more precisely, modern agricultural and marketing methods that we have adopted; The less fertile land where vegetables and fruits grow, the accelerated mechanization of their process of picking and packaging, the journey they take from the field to factory to retail chains - these factors all cause the sharp drop in the nutrient levels of the crops we put into our mouths.
Another problem related to this issue is that no less than 60% of global calorie consumption is based on 4 crops that are most processed: corn, rice, soy, and wheat. So many people in the world get their daily calorie intake from foods that do not contain many nutrients, and while there are some popular foods that include certain amounts of vitamins, minerals, and fiber - such as potatoes or whole grains – the essential components in these products are diminishing, as we’ve already seen.
So what should you do? How do you overcome this surprising lack of nutrients in the foods you consume daily? A good solution to this situation can be found in the very interesting approach of Dr. Joel Fuhrman, an American nutrition expert who authored the book "Eat to Live." Dr. Fuhrman suggests an approach backed by scientific data and agreed upon by other researchers, which claims that the overall quality of a person's personal nutrition depends on three main factors:
According to Dr. Fuhrman, a person whose nutrition takes these three factors into account and focuses on eating a variety of whole and unprocessed foods - instead of just counting calories and sticking to "low fat" foods - will feel satisfied with his or her diet and maintain their health effectively. A diet based on these principles is better than processed foods accompanied by supplements since amino acids have a complex chemical structure that is very difficult to replicate and copy, and providing this structure to the healthy human body - with all the positive nutritional components that exist - is as important and essential.
To help you understand what natural foods have not lost their nutrients and care still considered nutrient dense, we bring you 8 main foods found by Dr. Fuhrman as being highly nutritious. All so that you know which foods are not only recommended but also essential, to integrate into your regular daily menu:
In the first place by a rather large lead - kale, full of the most nutritious ingredients of all the other foods considered healthy. No less than 430 mg of potassium, 150 mg of calcium, 120 mg of vitamin A and 1.5 mg of iron are found in 100 grams of kale, all in return for only 49.5 calories. To compare, in order to receive the same amount of nutrients from oatmeal - a food that is considered healthy and nutritious - you will need to eat no fewer than four full bowls, which have a high caloric value.
Not only is watercress considered a superfood, it is also found to be a staple of nutrients and is highly recommended for eating. 100 grams of these green leaves are especially rich in potassium (330 mg), calcium (120 mg) and vitamin C (43 mg), but very low in calories - not more than 11 in total for this amount.
Mustard Green - the leafy vegetable that is used to create the favorite spread of the same name - is saturated with nutrients such as 384 mg potassium, in addition to 115 mg calcium, 70 mg and vitamin C, 32 mg magnesium and 1.6 mg iron per 100g of greens.
Swiss chard has also been placed on the list of nutrient-rich foods, with 379 mg potassium, 81 mg magnesium, 51 mg calcium, 30 mg of vitamin C and 1.8 mg iron that you can give to your body with 100 grams of it, with the total consumed not exceeding 18!
It is not for nothing that we have always been told that it is a healthy food, and it seems that the image of Popeye, who eats a box of spinach and becomes instantly muscular, is not so far from reality. These green leaves are infinitely rich in nutrients, and by eating a meal of spinach leaves you can nourish your body with 167 mg of potassium, 30 mg of calcium, 24 mg of magnesium and 0.8 mg of calcium iron.
Not only were green leaves species in the list of "the most dense" foods. Sweet orange carrots can be mixed in many different dishes and in no more than 100 grams of it, it contains 320 mg potassium, 33 mg of calcium, 12 mg of magnesium, and 5.9 mg of vitamin C.
This list contains many green vegetables, but it seems that lettuce is the most common and most beloved of them, and there is almost no salad which does not include its healthy leaves. 100 grams of lettuce is certainly packed, as found in the study, in nutrients, including 247 mg of potassium, 33 mg of calcium, 2.1 grams of fiber, and more.
You’ll be happy to hear that cauliflower - a favorite vegetable in many kitchens - is also part of those foods full of nutrients. Among the substances that your body receives when eating 100 grams of cauliflower, you can include 299 mg potassium, 22 mg calcium, 15 mg magnesium, and 8.2 mg of vitamin C. With such a makeup, there is certainly significant health benefits to this vegetable!

Things to Do for Free in Munich, Germany
Travelling can be expensive but most cities are home to at least a few landmarks that won't cost you a penny to see. HI! I'm Rebecca Britton and welcome to Watchmojo.com and today, we’ll be exploring what you can do for free while travelling in Munich.
One of the best ways to see any city is to get out on foot and explore. That’s one reason Munich’s free walking tours are such a treat for visitors. Held in English, these tours are a great introduction to this German city.
The tourists move fast all the main tourist attractions in the Bavarian capitals old town. The English Garden is a huge public park located in the middle of the city. At 1.4 square mils, it is one of the world’s largest municipal, parks even larger than New York City’s Central Park.
The park is well known for its beer gardens, lakes, lush greens as well as the possibility to sunbathe nude in certain areas. Within the garden is a Japanese garden and tea house that towers over a nearby beer garden.
Activities in the park are plentiful. Observe the abundant wildlife in its natural habitat. Grab a kite and make it soar even rent a boat for a spin around the lake. Pack a family picnic, take a leisurely stroll or even hop in a horse driven carriage for a look around this huge green space and don’t forget to check out the Monopteros, a small but beautiful temple on top of a hill.
On a clear day, you're able to see the skyline of Munich from within the structure. Since 1158, Marienplatz has been Munich’s central town square boarded to one side by the city’s new town hall, this City square drives millions of tourists each year. Each day at 11 am, visitors flock there to witness the famous show that takes place high above the square.
The Rathaus Glackenspiel is another of the city’s famous landmarks and this huge clock provide the show that reenacts the different moments from Bavarian history set within the 260-foot tall tower, bells ring and huge figures come to life. See a jousting match between nights and the jolly customary dance performance.
This Glackenspiel was built relatively recently in 1908 but has become a must see stop for tourists. And don’t forget to visit the Marian Column also found in the town square. Topped by a golden statue of the Virgin Mary, this column commemorated the end of the Swedish Occupation following the 30 years war.
One fact that some might be a surprise to learn is that Munich’s world’s famous Oktoberfest celebration is free of charge. While buying a pretzel and a giant stein of beer will still set you back some cash, you're free to enter the beer tents without paying a cent. Observe customary Bavarian culture, listen to traditional music and even watch Oktoberfest parades all without an admission fee.

Methods of treatment of coxarthrosis of the hip joint
Treatment of coxarthrosis of the hip joint is a serious not only medical, but also a social problem, as this dystrophic and degenerative musculoskeletal disease often leads to the loss of working capacity of the middle and older population and, accordingly, to disability. Treatment for coxarthrosis of the hip joint depends on the stage of pathology. If at the initial stages the medicamentous and other conservative therapy is applied, in the late stages the positive effect can be observed only with the use of surgical methods.
The main goals in the treatment of coxarthrosis:
- relieve a person from pain;
- to adjust the normal supply of intraarticular cartilage and activate its recovery;
- to activate circulatory processes in the area of the patient's articulation;
- reduce the load on the affected joint and prevent further destruction of the cartilaginous tissue;
- strengthen the muscular framework of the hip joint to improve the supporting function;
- to increase the mobility of the diseased joint.
It's important to remember! To date, there are no medications and techniques that can cure osteoarthritis of the hip joint. The whole arsenal of conservative therapy allows only to stop the progression of pathological processes in the joint and relieve the patient of the pain for some time. If the function of the joint is lost, only the operation can return the possibility of active movements.
Drug treatment of coxarthrosis
In almost all cases coxarthrosis therapy is started with medical treatment, as it is a public method and does not require special efforts from the patient. Assign drugs from several groups.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
The main medicines( active substance):
Doctors, and the patients themselves, are very fond of prescribing NSAIDs, since these medicines literally from the first pill or injections are able to relieve unbearable pain. But we must not forget that drugs from this group, although they relieve the patient of the main symptom of arthrosis - pain, do not affect the course of the pathology itself.
The use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in coxarthrosis should be short-term to prevent the side effects of
. In addition, there are reports that long-term use of drugs from this group contributes to the destruction of proteoglycans. These are substances that are part of the cartilaginous tissue and retain water molecules, thus contributing to the high hydrophilicity of the cartilage and maintaining its normal structure and shape. If the content of proteoglycans decreases, the cartilage dries up and begins to crack. And this phenomenon aggravates its destruction with coxarthrosis.
The administration of NSAIDs is justified during an exacerbation of the disease, when other methods of therapy are contraindicated because of the pain syndrome, for example, therapeutic gymnastics with coxarthrosis of the hip joint, massage, physiotherapy, joint traction, etc.
There are only two active substances of chondroprotective drugs: chondroitinand glucosamine. Medicines from this group can have one of these components or a combination thereof. Some manufacturers also add other active ingredients, for example, from the NSAID group, thereby enhancing their effectiveness.
The most popular representatives of chondroprotectors:
These drugs are produced in a variety of dosage forms: tablets, capsules for oral administration, solution for intramuscular and intraarticular injections, ointments and gels for topical use. This feature allows for stepwise therapy, when the treatment begins with injections, and continues to use tablets and ointments.
Dona is a popular chondroprotective drug
The mechanism of action of these drugs is as follows. Active components, chondroitin and glucosamine, are the main structural components of the hyaline cartilage that covers the head of the femur. Thus, integrating into their composition, these components help inhibit the destruction of cartilage, and if the disease is in the first stage, the chondroprotectors can even restore the destroyed tissue.
It's important to know! Chondroprotectors do not have an analgesic effect, as NSAIDs, and the effect of their use will be noticeable only after 4-6 months of regular admission.
Today there is a lot of controversy among researchers about the effectiveness of chondroprotectors, as there are not yet clinical large-scale studies in which their effectiveness has been proven. Given the need for long-term use of the drug( courses 4-6 months once a year), the lack of instantaneous effect and the high cost of such treatment, the acceptability of patients for therapy with chondroprotective agents is not very high.
Muscle relaxantsAlso you can read: Pain in the right hip joint
How to treat coxarthrosis of the hip joint without eliminating the pathological muscle spasm that accompanies almost all exacerbations of arthrosis and strengthens the pain sensations? No way. To this end, mainly used 2 drugs: midokalm and sirdalud.
These medicines well eliminate muscle spasm around the aching joint and reduce pain. But they need to be assigned adequately. The fact is that the tension of the muscular corset of the hip joint is a protective reaction of the body, therefore, by eliminating spasm and without taking any measures to unload the affected joint, for example, traction, one can only aggravate the situation. Therefore, muscle relaxants should be prescribed only in complex treatment.
Ointments, gels, creams for topical application of
It should be noted immediately that with coxarthrosis, local remedies are practically ineffective. The fact is that the acting components simply can not physically reach the necessary point of application. Skin, muscles, fatty tissue and deep jointing do not allow the ointment to penetrate to the required depth.
Intra-articular injections of
Intra-articular injections to the hip should be performed under ultrasound guidance.
Intra-articular injections with coxarthrosis are rarely used, since the articular cleft in a healthy joint is small, and in the joint affected by arthrosis, it is practically absent. In addition, there are large blood vessels and nerves nearby, which can be damaged by a needle. Therefore, the injections are performed not in the cavity of the joint, but in the periarticular region( periarticular).
Enter, as a rule, corticosteroid hormones with a pronounced pain syndrome. This is Diprospan, Kenalog, Hydrocortisone, Flosteron. Sometimes they resort to injections of chondroprotectors( Alflutop, Hondrolon, Traumeel T).
Hyaluronic acid drugs are injected directly into the joint under ultrasound control. They serve as substitutes for intra-articular fluid. Today the following drugs are popular:
Other conservative treatments for
In the early stages of coxarthrosis, conservative non-drug therapy is the main treatment. It includes the following activities:
- Therapeutic gymnastics. This is the most important treatment for coxarthrosis. No patient can improve the condition and get rid of pain without regular physical therapy. But it is necessary to correctly choose the exercises and correctly execute them. Excellent, if the gym is picked up by a specialist and will teach all the nuances of doing exercises. There are different methods of therapeutic gymnastics, for example, therapeutic exercise for Bubnovsky is very effective.
- Massage and manual therapy. They can be used only outside of exacerbation of arthrosis, when the pain is absent. It is advisable to regularly take massage courses 2-3 times a year.
- Hardware traction( hip joint traction).This unloads the joint. The traction itself lasts 15 minutes, is carried out by a course of 10-12 procedures. In a year it is recommended to spend 2 courses.
- Physiotherapeutic methods of treatment. Unfortunately, all existing techniques have little effectiveness in coxarthrosis. This is due to the deep occurrence of the joint. But despite this, many doctors prescribe physiotherapy courses, which sometimes help reduce pain.
Kinesiotherapy and therapeutic gymnastics are the most effective methods of treatment of coxarthrosis
Surgical treatment of coxarthrosis
Surgical treatment of coxarthrosis is prescribed at the last stage of the disease, when a person has pain that is not removed in any way or the function of the joint is limited. Several surgical techniques may be used:
- arthroscopic debridement is the extraction from the hip joint of pieces of broken tissue that, when floating freely in the cavity, contribute to the further destruction of the cartilaginous coating;
- periarticular osteotomy is a time-consuming operation, during which the surgeon changes the angle of the hip bone, so that the joint is unloaded, and the degenerative processes are suspended;
- hip arthroplasty - replacement of a broken joint with an artificial endoprosthesis.
In case of endoprosthetics, the damaged joint structures are replaced with an artificial prosthesis
Treatment of coxarthrosis at home usually starts with the use of various folk remedies. Consider the most effective.
Compress with cabbage leaf. It is necessary to take a large leaf of cabbage, grease it with honey and attach it to the affected joint. Top with polyethylene and a warm cloth. Keep the compress 2-3 hours. The course of treatment is 10-14 procedures.
For the next recipe, you need 250 grams of celery root, 2 lemons, 100 grams of garlic. All ingredients are twisted through a meat grinder, the mixture must be poured in 3 liters of boiling water. You need to insist 24 hours. After that, take 50 grams every morning on an empty stomach. The course of treatment is 1 month.
With coxarthrosis, a bath with topinambour infusion will help. To prepare a healing bath you will need a serving of water: topinambour infusion, pine, sea salt, 2 tablespoons of honey. Take 10-12 baths every other day.
When making conclusions, it is worth noting that, the earlier the treatment is started, the greater the chance to stop the pathological process and save the patient from pain. But, unfortunately, it often happens that only the replacement of the hip joint can restore the person the joy of movement and relieve the chronic pain.
How to cure arthrosis of the hip joint( coxarthrosis): advice to the patient
Coxarthrosis, or osteoarthrosis of the hip joint is a chronic disease in which the cartilage tissue of this joint is destroyed.
There are currently no medicines that would completely cure arthrosis, but there are various procedures and drugs that can be used to significantly stop the development of this disease and reduce pain in the joints.
Medicines that improve joint nutrition( hondroprotektory)
Treatment folk remedies
Because of the high load on the hipcharter disease progresses more, one of the most important methods of treatment of osteoarthritis 1 and 2 degrees, as well as the prevention of the disease - to minimize the burden on the affected joint. To do this, reduce the amount of time spent standing, and use any opportunity to sit. It is especially important to follow this rule during business hours, because it is at this time that most people have peak loads on their feet.
If necessary, use a walking stick for walking. If you know that during the trip somewhere you may have to stand a lot, do not be too lazy and take with you a folding highchair.
In addition, for the same purpose it is important to limit the wearing of weights. If you can not get rid of such a load, try to at least distribute the load on both hands equally, so that this load is symmetrical and not so large.
At the same time, a complete lack of stress on the joint is also not very useful. It is necessary to find the golden mean between the useful physical load and the load, when the joint is already beginning to be injured. For this purpose, it is recommended to undergo medical therapy exercises and physiotherapy exercises in parallel with medical treatment.
The effect of drugs on the course of the disease can be divided into several large groups: painkillers, chondroprotectors, muscle relaxants and others.
Medications for osteoarthritis are particularly effective at the first and second stages of the disease, when painful changes in cartilage have not gone too far.
Painkillers should be prescribed by a doctor
Drugs of this group reduce pain in the joints. These include a group of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs( NSAIDs), which include drugs such as indomethacin, paracetamol, diclofenac, etc.
Usually, drug treatment begins with the appointment of paracetamol in medium and high doses. Part of the patients, especially at the earliest stages of the disease, this is enough for the disappearance of pain.
If paracetamol does not help, indomethacin, diclofenac or aceclofenac( aeralt) is prescribed. These drugs have potent anti-pain activity, but it is important to remember that they can have an adverse effect on the gastric mucosa, causing the formation of gastritis and even ulcers of the mucosa. Therefore, these medicines can not be drunk for a long time, they should be taken at the doctor's prescription and under strict supervision, especially in people who have stomach problems in the form of a stomach ulcer or duodenal ulcer.
In addition, drugs from the NSAID group may differ in their effect on metabolic processes in the cartilage - some of it worsen, others do not, and others can improve, which increases the value of their use. To drugs that improve metabolic processes in cartilage, include indomethacin and aceclofenac.
Drugs from the group of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can be taken not only in the form of tablets: they can be applied topically, but without side effects for the whole organism. Such medicines include ointments and gels: voltaren-emulgel, diclofenac-ointment, DIP-Relief, butadione, fast-gel and others.
In cases where the use of NSAIDs and other analgesics does not help, a method of treatment such as intraarticular administration of corticosteroids( intraarticular joint blockade) can be used when injections such as Kenalog, hydrocortisone, diprospan, etc. are injected into the joint with injections. This method allows not only to reduce pain, but also to slow the development of the disease and to facilitate the treatment of deforming arthrosis of the hip joint.
Medications that improve joint nutrition( chondroprotectors)
In recent years, preparations have been synthesized that can improve cartilage nutrition in affected joints. With coxarthrosis, the destruction of the cartilage proceeds faster than their recovery, and the function of the chondroprotectors is that they bring the building elements to the joints to strengthen the cartilage, thereby "helping" the cartilage cells in their work.
Chondroprotectors include such drugs as chondroitin sulfate, diacerein or arthrodarin( this is a completely new drug for coxarthrosis therapy), hyaluronic acid, glucosamine sulfate, arthra, dona and others. The use of these chondroprotectors is one of the most important elements in the treatment of a disease without surgery. However, it is important to remember that these medications are slow-acting: for a distinct effect they need to be taken for several months, usually from 6 months to 1 year. In addition, chondroprotectors give good results of treatment only in the early stages of the disease.
In addition to medicines, a variety of physiotherapy procedures also provide a good effect in the treatment of arthrosis. These include local laser therapy on the joint area, acupuncture, therapeutic baths, mud treatment and other methods. You can learn more about them in the article physiotherapeutic treatment of arthrosis.
Surgical treatment methods
In situations where the aforementioned methods no longer help or do not help enough, surgery is shown - that is, surgical treatment of coxarthrosis.
Surgical treatment methods are effective in advanced stages of
This surgical procedure is performed only in the early stages of development of coxarthrosis. Its essence lies in the fact that the doctor with the help of an arthroscope - a special apparatus for joint operations - removes from the hip joint small fractured cartilage particles that, when floating in the synovial fluid in the joint, injure him and increase pain.
Thanks to this "cleaning" it is possible to reduce pain in the joint and reduce stiffness in it. However, this manipulation usually gives a temporary effect( which usually lasts 1-2 years) and is not carried out in the late stages of the disease.
The essence of this more complex and time-consuming operation is that the femur is filed in several places, and then reconnected in such a way that the angle of bones in the joint with respect to each other varies by several degrees. This changes the points of the main loads on the joint, as a result of which it is partially "unloaded", which reduces pain and slows the progression of coxarthrosis.
Such an operation in the treatment of this disease can give a good effect( a significant reduction in pain for a period of 5 years), but preparation for such manipulation and rehabilitation after it is quite serious: recovery after osteotomy may take 4 to 6 months.
In those cases when the progression of the disease is so great that the joint has almost ceased to work and the pain in it is no longer removed by drugs, the operation of hip replacement is indicated. Its essence lies in the fact that the affected joint is replaced by an artificial joint, made of special metal, special high-strength plastic or ceramic.
Thanks to this operation, it is possible to completely or significantly reduce joint pain. In addition, the patient is able to walk back and relatively freely perform movements in the joint, which due to arthrosis for many years was impossible.
Endoprosthetics of the hip joint - the main way to treat deforming arthrosis of the 3rd degree.
Term of life of endoprostheses is large enough and amounts to 20 and more years of service.
We offer you to watch an interesting and informative video about endoprosthetics:
Treatment with folk remedies
Medicinal treatment of the disease and observation by a doctor can be combined and using various folk methods to reduce the symptoms of this ailment. There are many centuries of decoctions, ointments, lapping and means for applying compresses that can relieve joint pain. You can find out more about these methods of treating traditional arthrosis in this article.
Remember: the earlier treatment is started, the more the doctor has the ability to stop the progression of the disease and reduce pain. Therefore, when there are painful sensations in the hip joint and other symptoms of coxarthrosis, without delaying, seek qualified help from a doctor-arthrologist!
symptoms and treatment of coxarthrosis 2 degrees hip
Coxarthrosis hip joint( abbreviated as TBS) - a disease where cartilage forming joint surfaces TBS, and then by bone - are destroyed. These changes lead to pain during movement and impairment of joint mobility, which invariably affects the quality of life.
According to the X-ray examination of patients, there are 4 stages of coxarthrosis:
First degree: signs are minor, allow to doubt the diagnosis.
Coxarthrosis of the hip joint of the 2nd degree: minimal changes are seen on the x-ray. The gap between the head of the femur and the acetabulum is slightly narrowed, there are single bony expansions( osteophytes).
The third stage is characterized by moderate changes: at this stage, osteophytes are found in large numbers, and the joint gap is greatly narrowed.
Fourth - the last stage of the disease, in which pronounced changes are visible on the radiographs: the joint gap practically disappears, gross coarse growth occurs.
Coxarthrosis is less common than arthrosis of the knee;3-5% of people over 50 years old suffer from this disease.
Treatment for coxarthrosis of the 2nd degree consists of activities that the patient can perform himself: exercise therapy, walks, medicines, physiotherapy procedures.
Further in the article, we will talk in detail about the disease: from whom it develops, which has the characteristic symptoms, how to treat the disease.
What happens with coxarthrosis of the 2nd degree
At this stage of the disease, the articular cartilage is just beginning to break down. It becomes friable, covered with cracks.
Chondrocyte cells responsible for the formation of cartilaginous tissue, when osteoarthritis, do not work at full strength, because of which, without treatment, the cartilage continues to degenerate. They also produce substances that provoke inflammation, as well as enzymes that dissolve the cartilage and break its structure even more.
To stop the process started in the body, treatment with medicines is required.
Causes of the disease
Coxarthrosis is a chronic disease that inevitably progresses without therapy.
Absence of treatment or improper treatment of the disease at stage 1 is the cause of the development of the 2nd degree of the disease.
People with overweight, farmers and football players have an increased propensity for the disease( due to occupational traumas of the TBS area during work and training).
At risk - people with excess weight, the farmers and the players
Yet it is genetics is decisive is that the person will suffer in adulthood with coxarthrosis or not. Recent studies have convincingly proved that in 80% of cases the hip joints are affected by osteoarthritis in those people who have congenital malformations of TBC( subluxation or hip dysplasia).
Characteristic Symptoms of
Classical Symptoms of Disease:
- pain in hip joint when moving;
- stiffness in the joint after waking for 5-30 minutes;
- decrease in the volume of possible movements in TBS.
- it is difficult for the patient to lean on the leg from the side of the lesion: the limb is unstable or pain is aggravated;
- when moving, a crunch may appear.
Also with coxarthrosis of the hip joint of the 2nd degree symptoms may be absent altogether.
Treatment of coxarthrosis of 2nd degree
The main method of treatment of deforming coxarthrosis of the 2nd degree is medicines.
reduces pain and inflammation,
restores the destroyed cartilage.
1. Medications against pain and inflammation
It is usually pain that leads patients with coxarthrosis coarse 2 degrees to admission to an orthopedist or rheumatologist. As a means of quick help, a rheumatologist usually prescribes a medicine for one of the following 4 groups:
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs( NSAIDs) of indiscriminate action
These are diclofenac, indomethacin, ibuprofen. These drugs are good for pain and inflammation, but they are not recommended for a long time, because they all cause bleeding in the digestive tract.
This group produces drugs in tablets, as well as gels and ointments for external use. If the pain is mild, and the radiograph shows changes that are characteristic of grade 2 disease - the use of even local medications can relieve pain and restore good health.
NSAIDs are available in the form of tablets, injectable solutions and ointments
Everyone knows the drug helps not only at temperature, but also with joint damage. With coxarthrosis of the 2nd degree, when the pains are usually not too pronounced, it is paracetamol that can become a "means of choice", because it is safe enough for long-term admission, it gives a good analgesic effect, but is inexpensive. Feedback on the treatment of paracetamol in coxarthrosis of 2 degrees indicate that in most cases, stronger drugs are not required for patients.
Selective Action NSDs
If paracetamol does not manage to attenuate the symptoms of the disease, the drugs of this group are used: nimesulide, celecoxib, rofecoxib, etorikoksib. They powerfully anesthetize and suppress inflammation and have almost no effect on the work of the stomach and intestines.
Narcotic pain relievers
Very strong analgesics of the narcotic series, such as tramadol, are used in coxarthrosis of the hip joint of the 2nd degree very rarely. Usually the indications for this are a very low pain threshold of the patient with simultaneous development of an exacerbation of the disease, which manifests itself as the most severe pain.
2. Chondroprotectors for the restoration of cartilage
To stop the destruction of cartilage and restore it, chondroprotectors are used: preparations of chondroitin( chondroitin sulfate) and glucosamine.
Both these and other agents have proven effectiveness: with prolonged long-term admission they reliably improve the condition of the hip joints in hip coxarthrosis 2 and even 3 degrees.
Chondroitin sulfate is produced under the trade name "Structum", a combined remedy of the two listed preparations - called "Teraflex".
Chondroprotectors are safe for health, practically have no contraindications, therefore they are used for years, including elderly people with serious concomitant diseases.
If glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate do not give their positive effects in the form of pain and cartilage repair, in addition to them, the doctor can prescribe avocado and soya preparations that also act as chondroprotectors, protecting and restoring cartilage of TBS.
It is possible to help yourself in the second stage of the disease by performing an uncomplicated complex of exercises of physiotherapy exercises without a static load on the joints. Suitable, for example, exercises such as "bicycle" in the supine position. Beneficial to the condition of the hip joint affects swimming in the pool, walking and skiing.
From physio procedures, pain can be warm or cold warmer, ultrasound effect on joints, acupuncture.
Coxarthrosis of the 2nd degree is a disease that requires attentive treatment. To treat coxarthrosis of the hip joint at home is quite possible: it is enough to get a one-time consultation of a rheumatologist and follow the recommendations developed by him. Control examinations every 6 to 12 months will help control the disease and correct treatment tactics in time( if necessary).
With a serious approach to the disease on the part of the patient itself, very good results can be achieved, until the pain in the pelvic region disappears completely and the joints return to good mobility.

Coxarthrosis of the hip joint: treatment with folk remedies
There are three degrees of coxarthrosis.
In no case do not start treatment until the doctor determines the degree of the disease!
First degree. Characterized by pain in the hip joint. Pains, pulling, arise in response to physical exertion. There are small changes in the structure of cartilaginous tissues. Limitations in mobility - no more than 10%.
Second degree. Pains in the hip joint area increase, appear with any activity, begin to be given to the groin, knee and thigh. The muscles in the region of the hip joint strain, the tension becomes constant. There are night pains. When walking, there is lameness. The limitation of mobility reaches 20%.
Third degree. Pains become permanent. The functioning of the joint is completely broken. Because of the permanent tension of the muscles, their shortening occurs, leading to a shortening of the leg. About 10% of cases occur on the contrary - the leg is lengthened. Then they say about atypical coxarthrosis. Dystrophy of the muscles of the buttock and femoral regions is observed. Dystrophy of the femoral muscles can cause severe pain in the knee area at the attachment sites of the ligaments. The patient can no longer move without a cane or crutches.
- Clinical examination, examination of the patient's symptoms and complaints;
- radiograph of the affected joint.
Treatment of coxarthrosis
Treatment of coxarthrosis of the hip joint is always complex and depends on the degree of the disease. The main tasks in the treatment are the removal of pain and inflammation, improvement of blood circulation and maximum recovery of joint mobility.
. Medication. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, analgesics, hormones. They relieve acute pain and inflammation, but do not eliminate the cause of the disease. Allow to begin therapy, which was not available because of the pain syndrome. It can not be used for a long time: analgesics cause side reactions, and the removal of pain promotes the appearance of a cure in the patient. Disease thus progresses and there is a risk of occurrence of coxarthrosis of the third degree.
Chondroprotectors. Especially effective for treating the first degree of the disease, when the joint is not yet very damaged. It is conducted by courses, usually several courses are required. Chondroprotective treatment takes a lot of time.
Muscle relaxants. Relieve muscle spasm. Apply with caution. Muscle tension is a protective reaction of the body. If you remove muscle spasm, but not reduce the strain on the joint, you can aggravate the situation and accelerate the development of the disease.
Vasodilator drugs. Promotes restoration of blood flow around the joint, removal of spasm of blood vessels, eliminates night pains, accelerates the regeneration of joint tissues.
Physiotherapy - electrophoresis, cryotherapy, laser therapy.
Hardware extension of the joint. Course treatment is performed by special equipment. Reduces the load on the surface of the joint.
Postisometric relaxation. The patient relaxes muscle groups, the doctor at this point performs their stretching. Course treatment.
Physiotherapy is an important addition to medical treatment!
Intraarticular injections. Injections of the drug are carried out directly into the articular cavity, through the groin. This method is rarely used. There is a risk of miss, touch blood vessels or nerve trunks. More often the medicine is injected into the periarticular region, and not through the groin, but into the thigh.
Therapeutic physical training. plays an important role in the treatment of any stage of coxarthrosis. The complex of exercises is selected individually. Exercises are performed three to five times a day, before meals, the duration gradually increases from 3-5 to 10 minutes. Surgical treatment of coxarthrosis. It is shown at the second-third degree of the disease. When the joint tissues are irreversibly destroyed, endoprosthetics is the only way to improve the patient's quality of life.
Folk remedies for coxarthrosis of the hip joint
Treatment of coxarthrosis with the help of folk remedies can be a good addition to drug therapy. In folk medicine coxarthrosis treat with cabbage leaf, lemon, garlic, honey.
Lemon-honey infusion. Three liters of boiling water are ground three lemons together with zest. In the cooled infusion add three tablespoons of honey. Eat half a cup three times a day for a month.
Home chondroprotector. Kilogram of beef front knees for 3-4 hours to cook as a cold in 2 liters of water. Take daily 200 g before meals.
Honey lapping. Take one part of glycerin, honey, iodine and alcohol. To stir thoroughly. Insist 2-3 hours. Soak the fleece in the infusion and rub the joint with the movements from the bottom up. Lapping helps improve blood circulation.
Manual therapists use two types of joint effects for the treatment of coxarthrosis: mobilization and manipulation.
Manipulation - one short sharp movement of the doctor. If carried out in a timely and qualitative way, the patient has a noticeable improvement in the condition. The pain is reduced, mobility is restored.
Mobilization - neat traction of the joint, helps reduce the load on the cartilage. This systematic treatment requires up to four courses per year, for three to four treatment sessions. That is, in a year the patient should undergo 12-15 sessions of exposure. Contraindications: arthritis, fresh injuries, oncological joint damage, fragility of bones.

Coxarthrosis of the hip joint: treatment, diet, drugs, prevention
Since the disease is fundamentally a metabolic disorder, a diet with coxarthrosis of the hip should be aimed at excluding the factors causing this pathology. As a result of the studies, products containing compounds detrimental to the state of the cartilaginous tissue were identified.
Nutrition for coxarthrosis of the hip joint should exclude:
- meat and fish semi-finished products of long storage;
- meat and fish, grown on hormones and unnatural foods, as well as stuffed with preservatives for presentation;
- more than 1 tsp.salt per day;
- refined vegetable oil;
- products with high salt content and preservatives: sausages, canned goods, chips, nuts, salted vegetables and fish, caviar, sauces, some cheeses;
- products with a high fat content: cottage cheese, cream, sour cream, red fish, mayonnaise, chocolate;
- jelly and steep meat broths.
In the presence of disease coxarthrosis of the hip joint, the diet should contain:
- a sufficient amount of liquid( 1-3 liters per day);
- all cereals of natural processing, macaroni, bread, potatoes;
- eggs( not more than 3 per day)
- low-fat dairy products;
- homemade meat or a properly cooked shop in small quantities;
- vegetables and fruits.
Drug treatment of coxarthrosis of the hip joint, most often, in the symptomatic elimination of problems arising from the destruction of cartilage and deformation of bones. The main actions that are expected from pharmacological agents: pain elimination, inflammation removal, improvement of blood circulation and nutrition of cartilaginous tissue, relaxation of spasmodic muscles.
Drugs for coxarthrosis of the hip joint, unfortunately, do not solve many other important issues. For example, pharmacology can temporarily improve the patient's condition, slow the destruction of cartilage, but it can not stop the process of joint degeneration. But systematic complex treatment, consisting of all known methods, can give very good results.
Drugs for the treatment of coxarthrosis of the hip joint:
- non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic agents( Indomethacin, Ibuprofen, Piroxicam, Diclofenac, Nimesulide, Movalis and analogues).Relieve pain, inflammation, fever, stiffness in the joints;
- hormonal steroid preparations, including intraarticular injections( Hydrocortisone, Methylpred, Kenalog).Neutralize reactive inflammation and pain;
- vasodilators( Nicospan, Cinnarizin, Trental).Improve blood circulation, relieve vasospasm, relieving pain in the joint;
- muscle relaxants( Sirdalud, Midokalm).Eliminate the painful muscle spasm;
- chondroprotectors - chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine( Arthra, Dona, Structum, Teraflex).Medicines designed to restore cartilage tissue at the initial stage. They work very slowly, the course is long( 3-5 months) and requires regularity. Qualified intraarticular administration significantly enhances the effect.
Surgical intervention is usually performed at the last stage of the disease, when the function of the joint is already broken completely and there is no more chance of another cure. It would seem that surgery for coxarthrosis of the hip joint is the simplest and right decision: after a while after rehabilitation, the joint becomes as new.
This is partly true, but there are also pitfalls: surgical interventions are not always successful and cheap, in addition, complications and loosening of the joint sometimes occur and a second operation is required. Even if everything goes well, the joint will still have to be changed after 15-20 years for natural reasons. Therefore, experienced specialists advise to resort to surgery at the latest age of , delaying the time to the last.
- TDS endoprosthetics - the most difficult of all manipulations, when both bone surfaces are replaced: the affected elements are sawed out, implants are placed on them;
- arthroplasty - is a minimally invasive method of prosthetics, in which only a small part of the joint is replaced, for example, cartilage;
- arthrodesis - the affected bones are fastened with plates and screws to restore the supporting function. Disadvantage: the motor abilities of the joint are still limited;
- osteotomy - dissection of abnormal bone joints for subsequent fixation in anatomically correct position. The motor function is restored.
Alternative methods of
Than to treat coxarthrosis of the hip joint, if standard medical methods do not produce the expected result? Among the alternative types of arthrosis treatment, the most well-proven:
- manual therapy( soft or jerky joint bones);
- applied kinesiology( motion treatment);
- traction therapy( hardware extraction of the joint);
- post-isometric relaxation( non-hardware extension).
Treatment of coxarthrosis at different stages of
With initial cartilage and bone deformations, treatment usually reduces to reducing joint load, restoring cartilage and training the periarticular muscles. Factors that will help alleviate coxarthrosis of the hip joint of the 2nd degree: treatment is more serious, with special attention paid to special exercises and massage, painkillers are added.
Treatment of coxarthrosis of the third degree hip joint is usually symptomatic or surgical. Some authors also distinguish coxarthrosis of the hip joint of the 4th degree: the treatment in this case does not differ from the methods of the previous level of the disease. Here we are talking, most likely, about the radiographic parameters of arthrosis.
Overcoming such a serious ailment as coxarthrosis of TBS, almost completely depends on the mood and vigor of the patient .There are cases when a great desire to recover, multiplied by efforts, led to such obvious improvements in the 3 stages that the person no longer needed an operation. Conversely, mild cases of coxarthrosis were triggered because of the patient's reluctance to comply with the recommendations of a doctor or disbelief in their own strengths.
Coxarthrosis is a pathology that causes deforming of the hip joint. The disease with severe consequences, requiring immediate action in the treatment, changes in the diet, and the whole way of life in general.
Causes of Coxarthrosis
The cause of the disease is considered to be a circulatory disorder in the osseous articulation. Lack of blood leads to the accumulation of metabolic products that settle on the joint surface. Even to the causes of the illness include:
- excessive mechanical overload of the joint. This factor is inherent in many athletes or people with excess body weight;
- hormonal shift;
- changes in biochemical reactions in the body;
- metabolic disorders;
- injury. After severe injuries, Coxarthrosis begins to develop even in adolescence;
- necrotic disintegration of the head of the hip joint;
- flat feet and curvature of the spine;
- congenital pathology - dysplasia or dislocation of the thigh;
- chronic hypodynamia;
- age changes.
Symptoms of coxarthrosis of 2nd degree
The second degree of arthrosis is manifested by aggravation of symptoms of stage 1 of the disease. The breakdown in the supply of hyaline cartilage is only exacerbated. The fabric slowly begins to break down. Its fragments are mixed with the intra-articular fluid, swim in it, which is reflected by the growing pain syndrome.
The pathological proliferation of bone tissue begins. Its edges strongly thicken, appear outgrowths - thorns. At 2 degrees of Arthrosis they do not have large sizes, but they already interfere with normal gait, and the person begins to limp. Lameness is not permanent, it can disappear after a long rest. But long walks are given to a man more and more difficult.
Pain has a characteristic feature - it is not limited only to the hip joint, but has a "spilled" character. Most often, pain sensations are noted in the groin, in the region of the thigh, fuzzy irradiation is tracked to the knee area. The muscular strength decreases noticeably, especially when the hip is extended and developed.
The work of the entire joint structure is disrupted. The ease of movement disappears, and the limb in the joint starts to work a little hard. Birth stiffness in the joint, acutely felt after a night's sleep.
Treatment of coxarthrosis of 2nd degree
Even the most effective medicines will not bring the desired effect if the sick person does not reduce the load on joints.
The second degree of Coxarthrosis requires long-term treatment aimed not only at reducing the manifestations of the disease, but also to eradicate the causes of its occurrence.
The more the bone joint is loaded, the greater the rate of its destruction!
But this is not enough. To relieve the pain syndrome, even at grade 2 Coxarthrosis, pain relief is sometimes required. They are taken in tableted form or very rarely at this stage, make intraarticular injections.
Along with anesthetics, anti-inflammatory drugs that relate to the non-steroid group of medications are also good at dealing with discomfort. They quickly reduce the inflammatory process, have anti-edematous effect. Short courses of Diclofenac, Ibuprofen tablets can improve a person's condition in just a few days.
When the inflammatory process has decreased, a long course of chondroprotectors should be taken. The effect of chondroprotectors is aimed at improving the state of hyaline tissue, increasing the production of lubricant, reducing the stiffness of the osseous articulation, preventing "drying out" of the cartilaginous plates. Usually these drugs are taken within a year.
How can I still treat Coxarthrosis without medications?
Treatment with medical products is better combined with the course of physiotherapy procedures. They not only anesthetize, but also improve the nutrition of the periarticular tissues. Do not forget that by means of electrophoresis you can inject some drugs directly into the joint area!
The real "scourge" of Coxarthrosis is a muscle spasm. Spasmodic muscles contribute to the growth of pain syndrome. They can affect the processes of metabolism in tissues, hyaline cartilage will begin to receive even fewer nutrients, oxygen.
A real healing elixir for patients with joints is mud baths or radon baths. These balneological procedures can be well combined with paraffin and ozocerite applications. These two natural "healers" are able to give an unexpectedly good result. But just remember that you should plan your trip to a sanatorium only during a persistent remission and after consulting with your local therapist.
Coxarthrosis has been treated with therapeutic massage by far our ancestors, and in today's medicine it is used widely enough. Massage parlors function in every respectable orthopedic clinic or center. Qualitative massage, especially in tandem with sparing, carefully selected exercises will allow you to quickly get rid of a serious articular pathology.
Acupuncture and manual therapy are somewhat forgotten in our high-tech age. But after all, exposure to biologically active zones on our body can "wake up" the latent possibilities of the body, improve nerve conduction, effectively and long-term relieve muscular spasm. So is it worth to give up natural "doping"?
Surgical treatment of the 2nd degree of the disease
Arthroscopic debridementWhen the disease has already reached the 2nd degree of development, arthroscopic debridement is indicated. It is performed by means of an arthroscope. The essence of the intervention is to remove the remnants of hyaline tissue, which will reduce the stiffness of the osseous joint, almost completely passes the pain.
But arthroscopic debridement is not a panacea. The effect of the procedure continues to be felt for several years, but then the symptomatic picture of Coxarthrosis returns. For later stages of the disease, this manipulation is considered unfit.
Diet with Coxarthrosis 2 degrees
It is impossible to cure ailment if you neglect the rules of healthy eating. Especially you need to keep track of the weight of your own weight. Remember that with this degree of the disease, pain increases and joint stiffness appears, and they will involuntarily reduce your physical activity. The lack of mobility of a person entails an increase in weight, therefore, exclude fatty, sweet dishes from food, not to mention fast food.
Enrich the diet with products rich in potassium, gelatin, vitamins, calcium. Therefore in the daily menu include:
- dairy products in any form;
- thick low-fat buns, jellies, jellies, gelatinous desserts;
- bananas, potatoes, all kinds of nuts.
Eat often, in fractions, do not let the feeling of hunger, do not use strict diets. Cartilage tissue should not lack a quality and useful nutritious products.
How to treat coxarthrosis of the hip joint of the 2nd degree with folk remedies
Folk medicine at grade 2 Coxarthrosis gives a good curative effect, but only as one of the healing methods. Folk remedies help to reduce the intensity of manifestation of a symptomatic picture, reduce pain and slow down the destruction of the osseous joint.
With Coxarthrosis it is useful to take decoctions prepared from anti-inflammatory herbs. The most common of them - chamomile, St. John's wort, linden, anti-inflammatory pharmacy. Herbal decoctions can replace the usual tea, drink instead of water. But you need to remember that herbs are the strongest allergens, because if you take the drug for the first time, it is better to drink half a dose of liquid!
At home, they prepare ointments and rubbers. Ointment is made on the basis of animal fats, most often it is the internal fat of birds( goose, duck) and pigs. In some cases, animal fats are replaced with vegetable oil of the first pressing. Through the skin pores is better to penetrate is not refined olive and corn oil.
Bee venom, medical bile, finely ground herbs, poplar or birch buds are introduced into the melted and slightly cooled fat basis. For lapping, tinctures on an alcohol basis are suitable. As a rule, store such a medicine at room temperature, in a tightly closed container, away from the light.
Do not forget about the healing effect of compresses. The solution for compresses is often made not only on an alcohol basis, but also uses strong infusions of anti-inflammatory injuries. All kinds of compresses are best done at night.
The room where you will be, should be warm, but the area of the compress must be further insulated with a woolen cloth or a downy shawl. When setting the compress, it is better to use parchment paper, the food film creates unfavorable conditions for the skin, which is fraught with a violation of their integrity.

As of midday on Tuesday voter turnout in jackson has been strong and steady and in the highly contentious 7th district voter turnout is key.
"This is an important election that's going to determine the direction the country takes for the next few years and we need to make progress with the economy," said voter Kathleen Dever.
The economy and jobs were big issues that brought many voters to the polls in jackson on tuesday.
"I'm concerned about the state of the economy in michigan," said one voter. "I want to be able to complain if things don't go my way."
Steve Bolton is one of many voters who made it out to the polls but didn't make a decision until today.
"I can't say I did a lot of research...I read the proposals on the walls before I voted," said Bolton.
Amanda Riska, the Jackson county clerk says voter turnout has been good and her office has been bombarded with calls.
"Am I registered to vote, where, my polling location is and questions from county clerks," said Riska.
And the new electronic polling book in the sixth ward made voting a little easier
"They are actually laptop computers that hold the voter information not only for each precinct but voter info for everyone in the city," said Lynn Fessel, the Jackson city clerk.
Now in the hands of the voters.
"We all heard from the candidates over the last few months and now it's your day to make your voice heard," said Riska.

Today the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) published CSA Staff Notice 21-317 Next Steps in Implementation of a Plan to Enhance Regulation of the Fixed Income Market, which provides an update on various elements of the CSA’s fixed income regulation plan.
“Enhancement of fixed income regulation is expected to improve market integrity, facilitate more informed decision-making among market participants and evaluate access to the fixed income market. Increasing transparency in the corporate debt market is a key element of this plan, and the CSA is working with the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) to achieve this goal,” said Louis Morisset, Chair of the CSA and President and CEO of the Autorité des marchés financiers.
IIROC has started the process to become the information processor for corporate debt securities in Canada. Information that will be made available by IIROC, as the information processor, is outlined in Appendix B of CSA Staff Notice 21-317.
In the coming months, the CSA intends to communicate the specific timelines for the implementation of the transparency framework.
Over the longer term, CSA and IIROC will review fixed income trading activity, as well as the appropriateness of the initial dissemination delay (two days after a trade is executed, or T+2) and the volume caps to determine whether they continue to be appropriate or need to be changed. Any changes in these areas will be subject to public consultation.
A review of dealers’ practices regarding new issue allocations is also a part of the fixed income regulation plan. Its objectives are to determine what, if any, regulatory action is needed in this area, in light of concerns raised by some market participants about their ability to participate in new debt offerings. Staff also intend to seek input from buy-side participants on their experience participating in new issues of fixed income securities.
In September 2015, the CSA published for comment CSA Staff Notice 21-315 Next Steps in Regulation and Transparency of the Fixed Income Market, which set out the CSA’s proposed plan to enhance fixed income regulation. The CSA received 14 written submissions, which were taken into consideration in finalizing the fixed income regulation plan.
CSA Staff Notice 21-317 can be found on CSA members’ websites.
The CSA, the council of the securities regulators of Canada’s provinces and territories, co-ordinates and harmonizes regulation for the Canadian capital markets.

Hanko is situated in a strategically important location, which has largely affected the history of the town and the surroundings, where many battles have taken place. The trails of war can be traced back hundreds of years and a lot them are still tangible today.
The establishing of the city
Hanko’s history is intertwined with the history of seafaring, and Hankoniemi as a berth was mentioned for the first time in the late thirteenth century. From the fifteenth century on, the Pike’s Gut (Hauensuoli), a narrow strait between two islands, was used as a harbour due to its sheltered position. The island´s rocks are covered with people’s names and coats of arms, carved by seafarers while they waited for favourable winds.
The port of Hanko became operational after the railway was completed in 1873, and Hanko was granted town charter in 1874.
An excerpt from the ‘gracious charter of foundation’ from 1874:
‘We, Alexander I, Emperor by the grace of God and absolute ruler of all of Russia, Tzar of Poland, Grand Duke of Finland, etc. etc., hereby make known that We, the Finance Department of the Finnish Senate, with the confirmation of the Governor-General of the country, have seen it good to graciously announce that a coastal town with the rights to practice foreign trade, to be called Hanko, is to be founded on the so-called Hankoniemi land…’
(Source: Hanko-vuosiluvut kertovat (Hanko year by year) by Birgitta Ekström)
The Spa Park
The villa area in the Spa Park was built in the late nineteenth- and early twentieth century, and Hanko’s life as a spa town began. The villas, representative of ornate timbered architecture, were designed by well-known architects. After the Continuation War (1941-44) the actual spa building (that had been badly damaged during the war), was torn down.
The Hankoniemi cape is strategically situated, and has in the past been the stage for many battles. Starting from the early seventeenth century, customs duties were collected at the tip of the cape, where a small military fortification was built. Sweden started building actual fortresses on the cape in the late eighteenth century, and three islands near Hanko were fortified. In the early years of the nighteenth century the fortifiers were Russians, and the defences in Hankoniemi were part of Peter the Great’s sea fortress. After the Winter War (1939-40) Finland surrendered Hankoniemi to the Soviet Union for use as a military base. When the Continuation War started, the front line was in Lappohja, but bloody battles took place on the islands surrounding the cape as well. In early December 1941, Hanko was recaptured and the evacuated residents returned to rebuild their war-battered town.
Industry, the port, and tourism became the supporting pillars of the town, and continue to be so.
Learn about war history in the Hanko Front Museum. The Museum is authentically situated at the actual front line of the war (summer of 1941). In the terrain around the museum you can still see traces of the war, which are presented along the so called “War Path”. The new permanent exhibition focuses on the events in Hanko during the war of 1939-1941.
Sights connected to 1940-41
• The monument of pioneers: there are 22 names on the monument of pioneers. These soldiers were killed in action and 13 of them died in an explosion on June 30th 1942. The monument was erected by their companions-in-arm in 1942. The monument is located about 14 km from the town centre, at the crossing of the roads Santalan Kartanontie, Krogarsintie and the main road 25 to Tammisaari, Hankoniementie.

The Monument of Liberty
The monument of liberty in Hanko was erected in 1921 in remembrance of the landing of German forces in Hanko in 1918. When the citizens of Hanko came back after the area´s Soviet control in 1940-41, the monument had been removed. Damaged parts were repaired and the monument was rebuilt in 1943, but it was taken down again in 1946. The monument of Liberty was re-erected in 1960 with a new text: “for our liberty”. The monument is situated by the sea at the end of the street Bulevardi. The monument was designed by Ilmari Wirkkala and Leonard Savola (Granit) and constructed by sculptor Bertel Nilsson.
Between 1880-1930 almost 400,000 Finns left the country in order to seek their fortune, about 250,000 of them leaving via Hanko to the United States, Canada or Australia. Their journey began on steamships which also carried butter – the most important export at the time, to England. The cape is still guarded by the ‘Eye of Hanko’, the Russarö lighthouse, whose twinkle was the passengers’ last sight of their native country.
An extract from Zacharias Topelius’s poem ‘Hangon silmä’ (The Eye of Hanko):
“I’m not a star in the sky,
just a fiery tower of the night,
a lighthouse on the coast of the Hankoniemi cape;
I guide the seamen, as the day wanes away,
and peril awaits on the hidden rocks.
Dark and light I alternate,
and sailors behold me with joy, thinking:
‘It must be the Eye of Hanko’.”
Follow in the footsteps of the emigrants. Still today you can follow in the footsteps of the emigrants, for example by seeing the emigrant hotel, the departure harbour, the monument and visiting Puistovuoret, where the emigrants used to dance before they left their home country.
The Emigration Monument, Merikatu
The monument is located on Merikatu, on the rocks outside Hotel Regatta. The plans for the memorial were made by sculptor Mauno Oittinen. The association Suomiseura had the monument erected together with 93 Finnish counties, all of whom lost more than 10% of their population to emigration. The names of these municipalities are engraved in the foundation of the monument. There are three cranes flying out to the sea on top of the monument. A similar monument has been erected in Lake Worth, Florida, to memorate the Finnish emigrants. The monument features two soaring birds.
Butter Warehouse, Western Harbour
When Hanko became the main port for butter export, the merchants put forward a motion to build a modern butter-sorting centre in the Western Harbour. The warehouse was built during 1907–1909. The building was designed by the architect and professor, Gustaf Nyström. The brick walls of this single-storey building are clad with local red granite. The load-bearing structures were made using iron and concrete constructions. The butter warehouse was the first building in Finland to be erected using prefabricated concrete units. In 2000, the building was converted into a passenger terminal for Superfast Ferries. Today, the harbour office as well as a cosy lunch restaurant are located in the old building, which has retained its original charm. The building is listed as one of the many historical attractions of the town.

Fine Dining for Four-Legged Friends at the FairmontJulieVR
When pets are a part of the family, you want to feed them well. An increased desire to give our pups the very best has led to a surge in new dog bakeries, caterers and other gourmet services, but not only can they eat well at home, they can live like kings on the road. Those who travel with their pets are happy to be welcomed at luxury hotels like The Fairmont Hotel Vancouver, where they welcome four-legged family members, offering them the same comforts as their owners.
The hotel has always been pet-friendly, but they’re taking it to the next level this fall by encouraging guests to bring Fido along for free. It’s all woofs and wags with special welcome treats and toys, a pets-only in-room dining menu and of course, a welcome from the hotel’s friendly Canine Ambassadors, Mavis and Beau. If you’re traveling without your dog, Fairmont hotels have Canine Ambassadors worldwide: guests missing their own furry friend or looking for a companion while taking a walk can bring along the resident Fairmont dog, for companionship, extra security and the comfort of home.
After several tastings, the two gourmet hounds selected mouthwatering treats such as Organic Venison and Cranberry Pepperoni (made with organic venison and juicy cranberries), Organic Beef Granola Bars (protein-rich snacks made with certified organic extra lean beef, whole oats, eggs, fresh veggies and apples) and Turkey & Spinach “Paw-Stickers” (made with all-natural ingredients like hormone-free turkey breast and fresh spinach). The hotel didn’t forget feline friends with offerings such as Succulent Salmon Stew for Cats (a hearty stew made with salmon and veggies like zucchini, pumpkin and carrots) and Wild Salmon Jerky (a high protein snack chock full of omega-3’s and local BC flavour).
Now that’s room service.
*The Fairmont Hotel Vancouver’s “Pets Stay Free” promotion will run throughout September and October and means the $30 pet fee is waived. All pets will receive the hotel’s usual pet amenities: welcome mat in the room, pet dish, welcome treats and toy, plus an information sheet on local pet activities and hot spots.

The Third Mainland Bridge in Lagos, which has been shut for repairs since July 2020, will be fully reopened this weekend.
The bridge has been only partially accessible since the repair work started.
The 11.8km third mainland bridge is the longest of the three bridges connecting Lagos island to the mainland. It is also the longest bridge in sub-Saharan Africa.
The Senior Special Assistant to the Lagos State Governor on New Media, Jubril Gawat, says the Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, said that the bridge will be reopened this weekend.
“The minister says a lot of work was done on third mainland bridge and people can check the handle @tmbrehab or hashtag #tmbrehab to see the level of work that has been done on the bridge from the beginning,”
The bridge should have been fully reopened before now but the #EndSARS protests affected its scheduled completion.
12 expansion joints on the bridge have been replaced to reinforce the superstructure of the edifice.
Constructed in 1990, the bridge was adjudged to be the longest in Africa until 1996 when the Oct. 6 Bridge in Cairo, Egypt was completed.

Even though New Wave is considered to be a singles genre, I believe the reason the genre has so many great songs is that there are a large number of fantastic albums. Plus, many of those albums are now considered classics. When compared to glam or punk, New Wave’s hold upon the late Baby Boomers and Gen X-ers is the high quality of songwriting that was put into the songs. Plus, may of those artists created albums that contained multiple hit songs.
Of course, this genre is not without is share of posers. Yet, overall, there is a large number of quality acts. So, let’s get on with today’s countdown.
90. Bangles – All Over the Place (1984). As the most successful band from L.A.’s Paisley Underground scene, the Bangles burst onto the scene with this Beatlesque masterpiece that fully displayed a formidable band with four distinct personalities, songwriting points-of-view and voices that blended together like sweet honey. Their full-length debut album remains their best.
89. Utopia – Utopia (1982). Todd Rundgren’s band of four musicians recording in a total democratic environment released this corker of an album upon an unsuspecting public that was ready for the band’s progression from a art/prog band to an AOR band to a power pop band to a new wave band on this album. And, they made the whole transition seem so effortless. FYI Utopia fans: they are reuniting for a tour this spring.
88. Spandau Ballet – True (1983). These New Romantics stumbled upon their updated Motown sound simply by chance. But, once they did, they made an album for the ages. No other music the band created in their career ever reached the heights of this one. Plus, the timeless title song is one for the ages.
87. The Tubes – The Completion Backwards Principle (1981). When The Tubes burst on the scene back in 1975, they were something beyond description, almost like a traveling performance art ensemble-cum-Broadway show on tour-via-a-rock-band with a sound that was equal parts punk, art rock and Rocky Horror. But, the band pared down the membership to only musicians, bought matching suits and became a rock band of corporate AOR raiders on this new wave classic. This album was everything that The Tubes had been promising since they debut album.
86. Tracey Ullman – You Broke My Heart in 17 Places (1983). Before Tracey Ullman displayed her greatness in her late-Eighties sketch comedy variety show, The Tracey Ullman Show (NOTE: The Simpsons debuted on this show!), on FOX, she dropped this masterpiece ode to the girl group sounds of the Sixties. This whole album is pure fun.
85. The Romantics – The Romantics (1980). Detroit’s The Romantics burst on the scene like a modern day Kinks as their debut single “What I Like About You” blasted through radio speakers announcing The Romantics were here. Unfortunately, the band slowly softened their sound in an effort to guess what the radio. But, at least we have this metal-melting album of superhero-proportions.
84. Big Country – The Crossing (1983). Rolling Stone once described this album as having guitars louder than AC/DC. Well, I wouldn’t have used such hyperbole to describe this album, but the guitars are aggressive and, at times, sound like bagpipes. However you want to describe Big Country, they at least brought the guitar back to new wave.
83. Stray Cats – Built for Speed (1982). Literally, anything was a go during the New Wave days of the Eighties. So, these New Yorkers who moved across the pond to jolly old England to find an audience ready for some big time retro rockabilly. And, the Stray Cats gave it to them. So, their record company compiled the best cuts from their two UK releases, titled it Built for Speed and brought rockabilly back to the masses in America. “Rock This Town” or “Stray Cat Strut”, which do you prefer? Can’t go wrong with either.
82. Various Artists – Pretty in Pink Soundtrack (1987). John Hughes tapped into the whole youthful Gen X zeitgeist in his teen films of the Eighties. And, his films’ soundtracks were impeccable. But, Pretty in Pink remains his finest soundtrack statement of Eighties youth angst.
81. Love and Rockets – Love and Rockets (1989). These goth rockers finally got the hit they deserved with the highly sensual “So Alive”. Still, this album, along with The Cure and Depeche Mode, brought the goth scene to the States, and darkness has never been so beautiful as on this album.
Now, we are twenty albums into this countdown, and I have been discovering just how timeless this music is. Long live New Wave!


text: Spyderco’s Zome Delica C11ZFPGR comes in a lightweight green. It has a full flat ground VG-10 stainless steel blade, skeletonized liner and a four position pocket clip so that you can carry your knife whichever way you prefer. If you are looking for a reliable knife and one-of-a-kind essence then look no further than the Zome Delica 4! This unique expression of the Delica 4 Lightweight combines all the features of this best-selling model with a multi-colored hand-dyed “zome” handle. Zome (pronounced “zoh-may”) is a class of Japanese handicrafts that focuses on dyeing textiles. This ancient art form includes many different methods of creating patterns on cloth using dyes derived from plants, flowers, fruit, and other natural sources and is closely related to many aspects of Japanese history and culture. Inspired by this rich artistic heritage, Spyderco’s Zome knives are unique variations of their lightweight models, which feature injection-molded fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handles. The handles are molded in a light base color and then individually hand dyed by expert Japanese artisans. Using a technique reminiscent of traditional hiki-zome (brush dyeing), various colors of dye are hand brushed onto the handle to create distinctive, one-of-a-kind patterns. Like Japan’s classical dyeing methods, the special dyes used completely permeate the FRN to permanently color it.

Tatarstan: Spouses-officials are suspected of embezzling funds for bridge construction
A criminal case of swindling, exceeding official powers, and complicity therein has been initiated against 51-year-old deputy of the village council Igor Bubekov and 44-year-old Chairwoman of the Financial and Budgetary Chamber of the Muslyumovsky District Executive Committee Nailya Bubekova.
In Tatarstan, 51-year-old deputy of the village council Igor Bubekov and his 44-year-old Nailya Bubekova are suspected of embezzling funds for the construction of bridges in the Muslyumovo village, Business Online reports. Bubekova is chairwoman of the Financial and Budgetary Chamber of the Muslyumovsky District Executive Committee and deputy chairwoman of the commission for selection of suppliers in the procurement sector to meet the needs of district customers. A criminal case of Swindling (Art. 159 of the Russian Criminal Code), Exceeding Official Powers (Art. 286), and Complicity in Exceeding Official Powers (part 5 of Art. 33, part 1 of Art. 286).
According to the investigation, in August 2016, director and founder of Timerche LLC and ElektroArmatura LLC Bubekov found out about the allocation of budgetary funds for the construction of an arch and cable bridge for the Ik river embankment in Muslyumovo. Without holding an auction and concluding a municipal contract, he made bridges (through his companies) and presented documents to the customer, indicating costs that were not corresponding to reality.
Bubekova drew up fake documents on holding auctions and concluding municipal contracts, according to which, the Khozyaystvennoe Obespechenie Municipal Unitary Enterprise (MUE) of the Muslyumovsky District was appointed the bidding winner. Over 5.9 million rubles ($103,663) entered the MUE settlement account from the budget, which were then transferred to the accounts of Bubekov’s companies with the participation of Bubekova in November 2016.
The embezzlement was exposed in February 2018 by officers of the ICR Investigations Directorate and the Tatarstan MIA Department of Economic Security and Anti-Corruption. It was found out that the actual cost of manufacturing the arch bridge was 411 thousand rubles ($7,221), and that of the cable bridge was 694 thousand rubles ($12,193).
The Bubekovs have acknowledged their involvement in the fraudulent scheme. The investigation of their case is ongoing; all the circumstances of the embezzlement are being established.
The lawyer of Marina Semynina, the civil-law wife of former Acting Head of the MIA General Administration for Economic Security and Combatting the Corruption (GUEBiPK) Department ‘T’ Dmitry Zakharchenko, who is accused of a number of corruption crimes, intends to sue the officers of the Federal Bailiff Service.

There is danger in dreaming. But there is even more danger in waking up.
Blue Sargent has found things. For the first time in her life, she has friends she can trust, a group to which she can belong. The Raven Boys have taken her in as one of their own. Their problems have become hers, and her problems have become theirs.
The trick with found things though, is how easily they can be lost.
Friends can betray.
Mothers can disappear.
Visions can mislead.
Certainties can unravel.
I had been waiting for this book for what felt like a lifetime, it was actually a little over a year but when you’re completely invested in a story that feels like a lifetime. This is probably a review for those who have already read the first two books as this is the third book in The Raven Cycle series, I will try not to spoil too much if you haven’t read the first two books but I’m sorry…there are just some things I have to get off my chest.
Initially I felt that this book was a little slow to start in the beginning but that could have just been me finding my groove back into this world after the long break.. I have come to realize that one of the things I love about this series is that although it has love stories in it, they do not take precedence over the main story line. This book first and foremost is about Glendower and their quest to find him; this is so very refreshing to find in a Young Adult novel nowadays. Even after 3 books the mystery of Glendower is still there, it doesn’t feel old or boring; if anything, it is more intriguing now that they have discovered Cabeswater and figured out that Ronan is a Greywaren. In this book it picks up from when Maura disappeared, Adam is taking lessons from Persephone on how to access Cabeswater/scrying so that he can help locate her and also so he can know what it is that Cabeswater needs from him now that he promised to be its eyes. Ronan is disappearing to do mysterious and dangerous things involving his dreams on a desperate quest to find a way to keep his creations alive even if he were to die. Strange things are happening to Noah that has him acting unusual and quite evil. Gansey is
busy being perfect trying to discover a cave system that leads to Cabeswater where Glendower may be resting. Of course, Blue is right there with him since she is trying to find a way to her mother since her only clue is that she is underground. We also get to meet the guy who sent The Gray man after the Greywaren, there are a lot of new discoveries and plot twists that this book brings, just when you think they are getting closer to waking Glendower.
Although I like my books to have a story line that can stand on it’s own, I am a complete sucker for a good love story. Maggie definitely delivers on this point; the late night forbidden phone calls between Gansey and Blue, The sneaky hand holding in the car, the lingering glances…heartbreaking and yet, they make your heart pound because you want nothing more than for this to work out for them. Why can’t it just be simple?! One day they can kiss, right? RIGHT?
One love story which captivated me completely, Ronan’s unrequited love for Adam. Gah! my heart could not and still cannot contain my love for these characters. You have Adam who feels he is undeserving of love and then you have Ronan who loves Adam so much and thinks he is so amazing. One of my favorite quotes in the book was when Adam noticed (and he keeps noticing) Ronan watching him.
“Adam felt Ronan’s eyes glance off him and away, his disinterest practiced, but incomplete. See, Adam Parrish is wantable, worthy of a crush, not just by anyone, someone like Ronan, who could want Gansey or anyone else and chose Adam for his hungry eyes. “
These two had me reading way too many fics after the book was over.
Maggie herself picked the best 6 words to describe this book,
This book had so much mystery, suspense, danger, sorrow, humor and love. All in all a great book, a great addition to the series, I will be on the edge of my seat waiting for the next book!
