It's not what you think!
When you first heard or read the title, you would think that the story is just some sort of vivid descriptions of Asian qualities and characteristics. But no, reading this beautiful masterpiece is like getting a breath of fresh air from this era of dystopian stories. This is what every reader needs after being consumed of reading typical young-adult novels. It's like finally tasting a chocolate after eating a bitter and sometimes bland food.
The book is as bewitching as the characters and the settings they are in. When we think of the words lavish, rich, and glamorous, we often associate them with being excessive. But this book gave a full new meaning to these words. Aside from the colorful universe of the crazy rich, what I like more about this book is the uniqueness of each character. Each character's personality is very well-described in every part of the book. I had the constant love and hate relationship with some of the characters – (I'm talking about Eleanor here).

Meanwhile, Kwan is the genius one. He was able to introduce each character while keeping up with the pace of the whole story. The character-inspired chapters are a smart narration that gives you an idea who the character is and at the same time give you a gist of the whole story.
Nonetheless, the narration was beyond impressive and clear as if watching a Singaporean TV show or Korean Drama in American HD. Kwan knows how to use the right words to describe the crazy world of these influencers.
I could say that the book is an ultimate page turner. No dull moments. Good story and lovable characters. You've been warned.This book is one of the best and most entertaining books I've ever read. And I won't probably hesitate to read it again anytime. If i were to go inside a library full of beautiful novels, I would still pick this one. This will go to my all-time favorite books.
All in all, if you want to read something fresh, rejuvenating, and out of the box, then you have all the reasons to give this book a shot.
Rating: Definitely 5 over 5. I see no reason why this book won't get a perfect score.

This congress is intended to analyze the work of the British film director Peter Greenaway, concerning both cinema and art. He is one of the most important film makers nowadays, as well as one of the philosophical reformers of cinema, a draughtsman, a painter, a writer, a critic and a organizer of exhibitions. This multifaceted personality makes it necessary a cross-disciplinary approach when studying his work. In this congress, and in accordance with its subtitle, Greenaway's work will be analyzed from three different and essential perspectives which, likewise, will structure the three days of conferences.
1. Cinema. Papers related to any aspect of Peter Greenaway's filmic practice and theory will be accepted in this area, specially those questions concerning the cinematographic discipline itself.
2. Body. This area is intended to examine one of the main themes in Greenaway's poetics, body. Papers dealing with the study of corporal representation both in his filmic and his artistic practice will be accepted.
3. Painting. There is no doubt that the reference to painting is one of the common places in Greenaway's cinema. We would like to encourage you to present papers concerning not only the relationship between cinema and painting but also between cinema and any other form of art.
Invited Speakers:
· Hans BELTING(Universität Karlsruhe)
· Omar CALABRESE (Universitá di Bologna)
· Peter GREENAWAY (cineasta)
· David PASCOE (University of Glasgow)
· Mario PERNIOLA (Universitá Roma II)

Motorcycle Route Author
By Airplane (5 McR Points) on Apr 13, 2016
Rider Reviews
Written DirectionsBegin In Jena, LA. Go South out of town on Louisiana highway 127. Turn left on Louisiana highway 460. Go straight across U.S. Highway 84 at White Hall. Follow Louisiana highway 8 east to the intersection of Louisiana highway 126 at Manifest. Turn left and get ready for the curves. Follow Louisiana Highway 126 to Louisiana highway 503 at Nickel. Turn left on 503 follow it to Louisiana highway 127 at Summerville, LA. Turn left on Louisiana highway 127 and go south back to Jena, LA.
SceneryThis route is like most roads in Louisiana. There are areas where the trees are right up next to the road. Then there are areas where the trees have ben cut back and you can see the rolling hills. Its not the scenery that will thrill on this route. It is the curvy road that will be enjoyed by all.
Drive EnjoymentThis route has nice new roads with the exception of the first 8 miles down Louisiana highway 127 South of Jena. The rest of the Highways have just been redone during the summer of 2015. The road south of Jena has some nice curves and elevation changes, but they pail in comparison to the ones on highway 126 between Manifest, LA and Aimwell, LA. This section will lull you into thinking this road is just like every other flat road in the state of Louisiana, however about two mile in to the ride you will begin the uphill climb for the next 8 miles as the road curves around and follows one ridge and then another. Some of the curves are marked with a posted speed of 25 miles per hour. You will come to a very sharp curve by the Aimwell fire station that marks the top of the hill where the old Forestry Fire tower used to be.
Tourism OpportunitiesThere are no state parks along this route. There is only one gas station on it after you leave Jena. That station is a White Hall Mall on the side of U.S Highway 84 about 16 miles into the route. This is the last gas and bathroom for the remainder of the route. The rest of the route is dotted with Churches, Old grave yards and country homes.

AbstractThe purpose of the study was to describe adolescent mothers' perceptions of the process leading to a second-time pregnancy. The sample consisted of four adolescent mothers who were pregnant with their second child or had delivered their second child within the last three months. Grounded theory using constant comparative analysis generated 4 77 data bits and 28 categories, which were further analyzed to total a final 18 categories. The core category, Facing Unreadiness, and the related subcategories provide a framework for understanding the adolescent mother who experiences a pregnancy for the second time. Information on adolescent mothers' process of Facing Unreadiness can help nurses to assist teens to identify strategies in dealing with a second-time pregnancy, and promote prevention of unplanned childbearing by teens with one child.

Pacific Rim Uprising is the sequel to the 2013 film, Pacific Rim, directed by Guillermo del Toro but this sequel is directed instead by Steven S. DeKnight (cool name man) and it is also his first feature film directorial debut. Now, although del Toro serves as the producer, could this sequel actually shines brighter than the original without the original director? In this Pacific Rim Uprising review, we will find out how it fares below!
Ten years after the original movie, the son of one of the Jaegar pilot is captured when he tries to sell stolen Jaegar parts on the black market. However, he is given a choice to either go to prison, or serve as a new batch of Jaeger pilot that is tasked to fight off new Kaijuus that have once again terrorised the world! Could they survive this new ordeal?
Plot-wise, this movie is actually rather long and takes quite a while to start. The first half of the movie felt rather slow and had little to no sense of urgency, portraying a post-breach earth where everyone is living in "peace". The apocalypse has indeed been canceled but it was not a good thing for the movie. The tone of the film takes a much more laid back and comical tone, very much like the protagonist who emphasises that he is nothing like his dad who was played by Idris Elba in the first film. But here's my issue, I actually liked your dad and I liked the serious apocalyptic tone of the first film. Hence, the first half of this film just ended up feeling a bit like a joke when compared to the first film and it never quite shakes that mood off even when things pick up in the second half.
Character-wise I will say that most of the cadets come off as very one dimensional and though there is some sense of camaraderie, the reason for that is never quite shown and it just sort of happens without some sort of plausible shared experience. I will say that John Boyega gives a very likable performance in tone with the film though I don't really like the tone of the film but that's no fault of his. Charlie day is another "standout" though I won't say why because of spoilers. What they did with him felt rather campy though and once again it fits with the tone but there was potential for him to be much more intimidating then he actually is. The way the kaiju were brought back also felt very…… Illogical, like it didn't quite seem plausible.
Also, the action scenes just didn't have the heart of the first film and some of them felt quite hollow. I was not invested in the characters. The final climactic "showdown" was also quite… Well, anticlimactic to me to be honest. There was also an overuse of slow motion for the sake of slow motion.
Lastly, I am quite sure the jaegers have been scaled down greatly? They used to tower over buildings and stood knee deep in the ocean in the first film? In this film, the buildings Tower over them instead and they're easily submerged? Idk they just feel smaller than the first film. Also, its gypsy avenger in this film while the first film the main Jaeger was named gypsy danger? So perhaps they really are different jaegers and that's why. Still kind of lame though. Why would you make them smaller when the kaiju are getting bigger?

Economic Issues Simulation Paper
January 23, 2012
Charles Sigmund
Health care economics studies such issues as demand for medical care, pharmaceutical prices, competition among health care providers and insurers, and financing of health care services. Castor Collins has put together a plan which will help solve many issues facing the organization. The plan is built to maximize profit for the company and minimize the risk of poor choices provided to individuals who will cause the organization to fall. Castro Collins Health Plan
Castro Collins Health Plan was founded in 1999 as a regional HMO, which provides health care services and health insurance to their enrollees which consist of 100,000 peoples. Castro Collins Health Plan uses a capitulation model through its network statewide of doctors and hospitals to pay its health providers. As vice president of the organization, alone with the Chief Financial Officer Helen Fouerman, the Chief medical officer Jonathan Wikes, and the executive vice president of planning and development Adam Hunter, together will put together a plan for the growing need of Castro Collins. Castro Collins was approached by two separated groups of people for health insurance. Either group has employer insurance which means both groups will pay for their own insurance. The first group, Constructit consists of 1000 people who are willing to pay a maximum annual premium of $4000 per person while the second group, E-editor consists of 1,600 people who are willing to pay a maximum annual premium of $4,500 per person. Demographics of the Employees
Constrictit has 550 men and 450 women ranging from the age of 26 to 42. About 60 percent of the group is married which mean consideration must be made to insure the spouse and children if desired. Thirty- two percent of the people at construtit has a work profile that involves great physical activities, 25 percent has moderate physical activity while the other...

Language Instruction in the ELC
Our Approach to English Language Instruction in the ELC
English language skills are taught through a holistic and integrated approach. Language concepts are taught throughout the day in a variety of contexts and integrated within a "co-constructive" approach to learning. This approach to learning communicative skills contextually within the broader perspective of the "100 languages" philosophy of Reggio Emilia deemphasizes the more traditional methods of learning languages that follow a specific phonics, "Letter of the Week" or worksheet-based type of program to learn language.
To develop English language skills teachers work with students to co-construct their learning, and utilize "teachable moments" that emerge from an inquiry-based program. Teachers interact with students individually and in small/whole group sessions to teach targeted language skills in context to what is being studied. In this way, vocabulary and language usage is developed in a way that is more developmental, meaningful and relevant to each student.
A student-centered, literacy-rich environment encourages students to explore and interact with materials that support their development of reading, writing and speaking both independently and in small groups.
Mother Tongue/Native Language:
The language of instruction at NIS is English. We recognize, however, that children come to NIS and enroll into the ELC with a variety of cultural backgrounds and first languages, all at different developmental stages. For students whose native language or mother tongue is not English, we believe that the use of a student's mother tongue within the classroom to support English language instruction helps second language learners develop proficiency in both languages. Consequently, when necessary, teachers in the ELC will use a student's first language to help them develop a better understanding concepts being learned. This strategy also helps students emotional and social growth by making their first language and cultural identity a valuable part of our community. Students understand however, that teachers expect them to attempt to communicate in English first, and that when they are in a group of students with different mother tongues that the common language at NIS is English.

GHOST's TOBIAS FORGE Says His 'So-Called Anonymity' Often Led To 'Awkward, Weird' Fan Encounters
GHOST mastermind Tobias Forge, who was publicly unmasked in 2017 when former bandmembers sued him, forcing him to reveal his identity, has told Music Feeds in a new interview that it has been easier to promote the band since his anonymity was taken away.
"There are advantages and disadvantages to both sides, I've found," he said. "They have their quirks. It's slightly more practical now, sure — I can walk into this room knowing we're going to do an interview, and there's not that awkward moment where we pass by one another and neither of us knows who is who. The thing is, when I'm out here publicly, I'm here as a representative — as a side figure — of this band. I will never be able to overshadow the profile of the band, the figures in it and its visual representation. This is not the official representation of GHOST — if you look at our records, our videos, our Instagram, our social media, our magazine covers, I'm nowhere to be seen. That's not me. Anything where it's me talking, that's just other channels that aren't officiated by the band itself.
"The funny thing has been that, as soon as I let my guard down and came out in the open about all of this, there have been a lot more media opportunities that have come my way," he continued. "The metal media was basically saying, 'Okay, we've been playing this charade with you for seven years. When are we getting the scoop? When are we getting the real you?' They felt it was their duty to cover it, and we felt as though we'd exhausted all of our options. To keep the band's image up, we said no to so many publications. After so many years, it was down to me to question why exactly that was.
"Sure, there's plenty of trash out there, but there's also a lot of places where we now get to speak to a lot of high-end publications. Take France, for instance. They're fascinated by the band — to them, it's very… [puts on French accent] cultured. [Laughs] At the end of the day, my job is to promote my band. It's as easy as that."
Asked how his relationship with fans has changed since the big reveal, Forge said: "There were many years where the so-called anonymity was a very poorly kept secret. It often led to awkward, weird moments. People would come up to me, because they knew who I was. They'd want to get a photo, and sometimes I would make exceptions if it was for a kid. If someone has their son or their daughter with them… I can't say no to a little kid, y'know? They wouldn't understand why I would want to turn that down. What would happen, then, would be some other guy would come up to me straight after that. 'Hey man, I saw you take a photo with that kid. I want one, too.' Not even so much as a please. And suddenly I'm the jerk in that situation. I just wanted to shut the whole thing down, like, 'I'm not taking photos with anyone.' It was such a Catch-22 for me. Now, unless I'm like in some super-shitty mood, I take photos with people. I don't want to let anybody down. I don't want people thinking I'm an asshole. I'm just trying to be as cordial about it as possible."
Forge recently said in another interview that his current stage persona, Cardinal Copia, has a very good chance of sticking around for GHOST's next studio album.
Tobias performed as a "new" Papa Emeritus on each of the band's first three LPs, with each version of Papa replacing the one that came before it. Papa Emeritus III was retired in favor of Cardinal Copia before the release of last year's "Prequelle".
Forge told Billboard that he is already focused on the band's next recording project, with plans to be in the studio again by the beginning of 2020. But GHOST still has an extensive touring schedule to get through for the rest of 2019, including a opening stint for METALLICA this summer.

Safari vehicle and guide : Southwestern Serengeti
From Olduvai, we will head out for a day of game viewing in the Southwestern Serengeti. The southwestern side of the shortgrass plains of the Serengeti is centred around two sodorous lakes, Ndutu and Masek. Around these lakes are large stands of acacia forest. This combination of permanent water and vegetation means that there are good populations of resident game here throughout the year, including lion and leopard. But this area is most famous for its position on the migration route, and we expect to be able to see the wildebeest migration during our trip.Location: Serengeti, Tanzania

White-winged Trillers, another of our spring migrants, have arrived in good numbers this year.
I've been hoping to get some decent images … as these shots demonstrate I'm still waiting! Distant views in harsh midday sun are not ideal conditions for photographing this species.
I watched this male fossicking on the ground, around tree stumps and in the canopy, not for insects, but for cobwebs with which to line its delicate nest.
After a few minutes careful observation I located the nest, high up in the fork of a Grey Box.

How I changed my relationship with Love
When I began my Desire Map journey I was looking for a way to feel, really feel love again. That warmth, the twinge, the achey, bursting-open joyous sensation of love. I was kind of fearful that I wasn't just numb to it, and that I was, perhaps, in the wrong place altogether. It turns out many "new" moms feel that numbness- the drain and fatigue of motherhood has taken its toll on our hearts and ... Read More about How I changed my relationship with Love

My old relationship with happiness was filled with miscommunication, unrealistic expectations, misunderstandings, confusion, and just plain disappointment. I sought to understand. I bought books.

Forty-three newly minted interns, their supervisors and high school administrators were hosted by Morris Hospital to celebrate the beginning of the Grundy County Summer Internship Program, a joint effort of Grundy County Economic Development Committee and the Grundy Area Vocational Center.
The interns come from every public high school in Grundy and will be serving their internships at 16 companies, including Morris Hospital, Lyondell-Basell and D Construction.
Recent Minooka High School grad Dakota Nelson began his internship with Metalstamp last week.
"This is a great program to be in. They really set you up with great companies," Nelson said.
The program is meant to incentivize young people to stay in Grundy County and combat the flood of young Illinois students leaving the state, according to Erin Murphy-Frobish, vice president of human resources at Morris Hospital.
According to the Illinois Board of Higher Education, 48.4% of high school graduates enrolled in four-year universities in 2017 chose to attend out of state institutions.
Nikki Wills of GEDC said she wanted young talent in Grundy County to invest their careers back into the community.
"Our goal is to make you guys aware of the wonderful opportunities available right here in Grundy County," Wills said. "We're hoping to get more companies involved in the future so we can give these awesome young people great internships."
The internships, which are all paid positions, are extremely competitive, with 130 applicants for just 43 available positions.
State Sen. Sue Rezin, R-Morris, thanked the supervisors for investing in the future leaders of their communities before calling up each intern to introduce themselves.
"In Springfield they try to legislate internship programs, but we don't need to legislate it. We need buy-ins from communities and schools like you… This is the best internship placement program in the state," Rezin said.
Grundy County high school students who attend Seneca High School in LaSalle County are currently ineligible for the internship program. Wills said GDEC would consider allowing Grundy SHS students to apply during a meeting at the end of the summer.

Introducing Vita Liberata's latest innovation – Self Tanning Anti Age Serum
Are you ready for the next generation of multifunctional beauty products? Vita Liberata is passionate about simplifying your skincare and beauty regime – without compromising it. Self Tanning Anti Age Serum does just that. It offers skincare, natural-looking tanning, anti age actives and a smoothing makeup primer in one.
Beauty editors and directors are already hailing its benefits, with Glamour Beauty Director Alessandra Steinherr saying, 'I am in love with this!!! It's so amazing – feels luxurious on the skin, doesn't dry me out like most fake tans and gives the prettiest sun kissed glow. It's really, really, REALLY good. Trust me I've tried 'em all.' Read on for the science part – it won't disappoint!
Anti Age Skincare
This serum contains a unique blend of incredible actives including rose that contains Vitamins A, B3, C, D and E and essential fatty acids, which quickly absorb into the skin to help with tissue regeneration; and cucumber, with fisetin flavonol for anti inflammatory benefits, quercetin for anti allergy benefits and beta carotene to encourage cell repair and growth. The most exciting addition to the formulation is Matrixyl 3000, which is a combination of the two peptides, palmitoyl oligopeptide and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7. It is one of the most effective anti ageing ingredients in the world, providing excellent filling of the wrinkles on the forehead and around the lips, improving the elasticity of the skin, and evening the skin tone. The composition rejuvenates the skin cells, by reactivating the production of collagen in those cells.
Flawless Made-To-Measure Colour
Vita Liberata's tanning prowess is second to none. Using eco-certified DHA, with Odour Remove™ technology to ensure no tan smell, Vita Liberata tan solutions replicate a natural tan, every time. To achieve a radiant glow with Self Tanning Anti Age Serum, simply add 1-3 drops to your normal facial moisturiser, depending on how dark you want your tan to be. You can incorporate the serum into your daily regime to maintain or build the colour, and alternatively apply directly to skin for the most concentrated tan result. This can be used in the morning or evening, depending on your preference. The anti age actives will work hard on your skin either way.
Velvet Soft Makeup Primer
The serum will leave skin silky smooth, while evening the skin tone, thanks to conditioning and emollient extracts. It instantly hydrates skin and absorbs quickly into the skin. It smells of nothing (apart from a faint rose aroma thanks to the natural extract). This makes it the perfect makeup primer, suitable for use under liquid or powder foundation.
Completely free from parabens, perfumes, alcohols and toxins, Vita Liberata's Self Tanning Anti Age Serum is the cleanest way to incorporate highly active anti age extracts, natural-looking tanning and supreme hydration into your everyday skincare regime, in one simple product.
As an exclusive pre-launch vitaliberata.co.uk has a limited number of the Self Tanning Anti Age Serum available to buy now.

Reconstructive Plastic Surgery
" I travelled 2000 kms from Punjab to Kolkata to save my son's hand, which different hospitals said was impossible. Dr Srinjoy Saha is a real genius. "Reconstructive plastic surgery is excellent for correcting deformities after burns, trauma to bones and muscles, problems present since birth like cleft lip or cleft palate, infections, cancers and tumours. Most commonly performed reconstructive surgeries are skin grafting, laceration repair, scar repair, hand surgery, breast reduction and flap surgery. Seeking early plastic surgery when you have problems in your hand, face or other areas will help you lead a more functional and productive life.
To Know More About Microscopic Reconstructive Plastic Surgery, Click For Microsurgery.
|Reconstructive plastic surgery is best for correcting deformities or dysfunctional body areas.
Scar Treatment.Scars can be unpredictable. Many variables affect scarring, including depth, site and size of the wound, blood supply, infection, type of skin and direction of the scar. Scar formation depends on body reaction, on original injury and skill and finesse of a surgeon. A scar cannot be removed permanently. Good plastic surgeons like Dr Srinjoy Saha improve scar appearance and make it imperceptible at best. Different surgical techniques, lasers, fillers and fat grafting are performed to improve appearance and severity of scarring. How much an appearance of scar bothers you, is of course, a personal matter.
|Good plastic surgery can improve scar appearance and make it imperceptible.
Wound Healing.
Chronic wounds are difficult to heal, leading to extended hospitalisation, multiple surgeries, amputation or life-threatening infections. Comprehensive wound care checks your overall health, underlying diseases and proper wound assessment. Effective and early treatment reduces complications, prevents amputations, early return to work and better quality of life. Chronic non-healing wounds are caused by diabetes, neuropathy, peripheral arterial disease, venous insufficiency, lymphedema, vasculitis, trauma, irradiation, wound dehiscence, pressure sores, burns, infections among others.
'Flap' refers to human tissues still attached to the body by a major artery and vein, which supplies adequate blood flowing through it. In reconstructive plastic surgery, a flap is used to cover an injured area or gap in the body, called 'defect'. Flap may consist of skin and fatty tissues, muscles, fascia, or all of these in various combinations. The area from which a flap is raised is called a donor site. The area in the body where flap is placed is called a recipient site. Flaps are divided into 2 major categories: Local (pedicled) flap and Free flap.
|Chronic wounds are difficult to heal and require comprehensive care.
Burns Treatment.Burns can kill and maim, and are dangerous. Severe burns can kill within hours. Infection is a dreadful sequela delaying treatment. Effective burn care requires close attention to detail and use of relevant technologies to keep patients safe. Dr Srinjoy Saha treats the patient as a whole, and not just the burn, aware of multiple challenges that burn patients and their families may face during recovery. All burn patients require complete re-integration into the society, leading happy pain-free and productive lives.
|Effective burns treatment requires close attention to detail.
Reanimation After Facial Paralysis.Facial reanimation is required to provide movements or 'animation' to a person suffering from facial paralysis. Plastic surgery can reanimate face after just one highly specialised operation, and may require further procedures in more complicated conditions if necessary. Facial nerve is the seventh cranial nerve responsible for moving muscles of facial expression, and has five main branches. . It can be paralysed after injury, tumour resection, Bell's palsy, congenital deformities amongst others. Treatment of paralysed face requires specialised and tailored treatment plan.
|Reanimation makes facial muscles movable in a person with facial paralysis.
Post Burn Scar Contracture.Thick scars may form over burnt areas which did not heal by itself or after skin grafting within 2 weeks. They look ugly, itch constantly and may cause loss of function of involved part of the body. Size and severity of burn injury, depth thickness and extent of scars determine the type of surgery best suited for that condition. Skin grafts, Full-thickness grafts, Skin flaps, Tissue expander, Laser resurfacing and Fractional laser treatment are different options from which treatment strategy is finalised.
|Post Burn Scars can be dense, ugly, itch constantly and cause loss of function.
Keloid and Hypertrophic Scars.A scar is a part of the body's natural healing process. Often they shrink and fade away. But sometimes, they become large, raised, itchy, discoloured, painful. This condition is called Hypertrophic Scar. If they continue to grow in size, involve surrounding normal body areas and become progressively itchy and painful, they have progressed into a Keloid. These are very difficult to treat, but can be controlled well with proper effort. Excision and reconstruction, Laser therapy, Cryotherapy, Injectables, Silicone gel, Pressure garments are different types of plastic surgery available to treat these distressing disorders. Dr Srinjoy Saha is actively involved in treating, researching and integrating new and effective techniques. He can help you based on the type, site, size and shape of your scar. Each treatment plan is customised after knowing your functional and aesthetic goals.
|Keloids grow in size, involve normal areas, itchy, painful and difficult to treat.
Skin Cancer.Skin cancers are dangerous. Not treated, they can lead to destruction, deformity, loss of function, and even death. Basal Cell Cancer is the most common type of skin cancer. Actinic Keratosis, Squamous Cell Cancer and Melanoma are the other common types. Any growth over the skin are preferably removed and sent for biopsy - some of them turn out to be precancerous (showing malignant potential). Diligent removal with high cure rates and fine imperceptible scars are possible through plastic surgery. Special care is taken to get the best cosmetic appearance of the resulting scar.
|Skin cancers are dangerous. Prompt Excisional Biopsy & Reconstruction is helpful.
Hand Surgery.Dr Srinjoy Saha performs surgical correction of hand defect or deformity following trauma, fractures, congenital deformities, nerve entrapments, tendon and vessel injuries to hand, wrist and forearm. He also performs innovative microsurgical techniques reattaching amputated fingers and limbs. Regular physiotherapy yields good functional results. Different types of commonly performed hand surgery are listed below:
- Carpal Tunnel Decompression.
- Nerve Release for Relief of Chronic Pain.
- Hand and Finger Contracture - Post Burns or Dupuytren's.
- Repair / Reconstruction of Birth Defect or Deformity.
- Tendon Injury Repair.
- Tendon Reconstruction.
- Finger Injury Reconstruction with Flaps.
- Tumour over Hand or Fingers.
To Know More About Hand Surgery, Click For Hand Surgery.
|Hand Surgery is performed to restore function and shape of the hand.
Flap Surgery.
|Flap is a vascularised portion of tissue used to cover defects.
Skin Graft.Skin grafting is a plastic surgery technique of transplanting skin from one area of the body to another. It is used to treat extensive wounds and injuries, burns, areas of skin loss due to severe infection like necrotising fasciitis and some surgeries like after removal of skin cancers. It can be of two types - partial and full. Partial thickness skin graft involves removal of thin layer of upper skin from a donor area. Full thickness skin graft involves taking the entire thickness of skin from donor area. It is more risky as it has a lesser 'take' rate. On the brighter side, its aesthetic match is high, scarring is low, and wound healing is faster.
|Full thickness skin graft is risky but has great results overall.
Cranio-Maxillo-Facial Surgery.This is a combination of several plastic surgery performed to correct diseases of the skull, face, head and neck. It involves reconstructing damaged bone and soft tissues to improve the function and appearance of disfigured areas of head, neck, skull and face. Broadly, two groups of people need this surgery. First are the children born with abnormalities and disfigurements. In these children suffering from craniofacial anomalies, early surgery is greatly beneficial for their growth and development. Second are those who develop problems in their skull and face later in life, through, diseases, infection, cancer or injury.
|Early surgery of cleft lip and palate is good for child's growth.
Facial Injuries.Soft tissue injuries like cuts and lacerations over the face require precise repair with fine sutures. it is necessary to combine good reconstructive techniques with cosmetic surgery finesse to obtain the best results. Good knowledge of underlying nerves and glands are required to repair or preserve and not harm them.
Fractures of facial bone occur after severe trauma and are disfiguring. Location, severity and number of fractures, along with age and general health of the patient determine specific treatment. Surgically, titanium plates and screws and used to stabilise fractured facial bones. Cuts on the face are small and few and placed in hidden areas of the face, so that the resultant scars are imperceptible.
|Facial fractures require rigid fixation with titanium plates and screws.

I had so much fun creating this look after seeing a tutorial on it by Dinosaur Dances, and although the lips went a little funny by the end and I forgot to put white eyeliner on my waterline, I think it isn't a bad attempt. Although if I were to do this look again, I would try a different brand of face paint as sadly this one did leave areas patchy, but I'm still happy with how it turned out. Let me know in comments below what you think!

Educating Your Patients About Socket Preservation
Did you know your patient's understanding of the importance of socket preservation can significantly impact their decision to replace missing teeth after an extraction? Well, it does and here's why.
Let's take a moment to think about when something new is introduced to you. Maybe it's a new nutritional supplement, the newest phone upgrade, or even the hottest new dental product. Before you make the decision to invest, you want to know the value that this new "thing" will bring you. So why would you think your patients are any different, especially when it comes to oral health and the esthetics of their smile?
When a patient makes the decision to have a tooth extracted, they have made that decision with the information provided by, you, their doctor, who they have entrusted with their care. Unfortunately for your patients, socket preservation procedures are often left out of these conversations and your patients (and practice) could seriously suffer.
So how do we educate patients on the value of socket grafting even when their insurance provider may not cover it? Well, as mentioned in the article "Is Socket Grafting Standard of Care?" by Dr. Gordon J. Christensen, showing patients comparison photos of clinical procedures in which socket grafting was and was not completed is a good place to start. Your patients may not fully understand or even want to know all of the clinical treatment jargon about socket grafting. But they do need to know that failing to invest in this procedure may cause their bone and soft tissue to shrink, which will seriously impact the fit and look of the implant in which they have already decided to invest.
Images possess the power to tell this story in a way that your patients can easily understand. We live in a world where we are bombarded by before & after photos on social media, they even have their own hashtag (#transformationtuesday). So why not use these as educational tools for your patients? Providing patients with visuals, while speaking to them about the esthetics of their smile, can serve as the perfect educational combination. Patients have the ability to see the value in the procedure and as a result you gain another treatment case. It's a win-win.
To learn more valuable insights about educating your patients on the value of socket grafting and discover how incorporating this procedure could benefit your practice, click here to access Dr. Christensen's "Is Socket Grafting Standard of Care?" article.

Farmer was ploughing one day on his farm when he turned up a pot of golden coins with his plough.
He was overjoyed at his discovery, and from that time forth made an offering daily at the shrine of the Goddess of the Earth.
Fortune was displeased at this, and came to him and said, "My man, why do you give Earth the credit for the gift which I bestowed upon you? You never thought of thanking me for your good luck; but should you be unlucky enough to lose what you have gained I know very well that I, Fortune, should then come in for all the blame."
Moral: Show gratitude where gratitude is due.

How are we encouraging non salvationist staff to see this as "their salvation army"? Rarely have I seen this group addressed specifically. As leaders of The Salvation Army, do we have a responsibility to care for their souls and treat them with just as much love as a salvationist? Do we have a vision that sees staff as part of our mission field?
The Western Territory ministry vision: Christ and Him Crucified
The strength of this Army does not lie in education, skills or abilities. Our power is not found in financial resources, good public relations or beautiful facilities. It's not even the consequence of relevant social programs.
The power of our Army lies in the degree to which we are committed to the gospel itself. So it's not about you. And it's not about me. And it's not even about us. It's about Christ and him crucified.
Checking our heart, health and holiness.
To preserve our unique role in the Body of Christ, the USA Western Territory is strengthening its internal focus and
systems—those beliefs, practices and standards that make it an "Army of God."
FOCUS: Salvation, soldiership and spiritual formation, Senior and Junior Soldiers' Day of Renewal, commitment to
Christ, personal devotions and Bible study, worship emphasis and distinctions…LOVE!
To broaden the extent individuals and groups—both within and outside it's ranks, contribute to its development— Salvationists and non-Salvationists alike must be encouraged to see the organization as their Salvation Army.
FOCUS: Life in Christ, life in the corps and life in the community; corporate and personal assessment (internal and external); Biblical literacy; leadership training; evangelism and outreach…JOY!
Consistent with the Salvationist tradition of innovation and experimentation, the territory is actively identifying new avenues of ministry that will, at the margins, produce further growth for the kingdom of God.
FOCUS: Ministry development, mission integration and membership involvement, holiness teaching, holy living, harvest initiatives, purpose, passion, people…PEACE!
Let's give greater prominence to the powerful simplicity of testimony, and let's make it common once again for Salvationists to ask one another, 'How is it with your soul?' —KENNETH G. HODDER, COMMISSIONER

[A]ll loose masonry has now been removed from the front of the Central Plaza building on Victoria Viaduct in Carlisle.
This has allowed for one of the cranes to leave the site.
A Carlisle City Council spokesperson said: "Now that the imminent danger has been removed from the front of the building, plans are in place to reopen Bush Brow from 4pm today (Monday, 11 June).
"Once open, there will be vehicle and pedestrian access via English Damside. There will be no access from Bush Brow onto the Viaduct.
"Work continued on the site over the weekend and in addition to the loose masonry, work has started on the left gable end of the building. This has been taken down to roof level. Work has also started on the removal of one of the chimneys.
"It is now estimated that around 160 tonnes of stone and building material will be removed from the building.
"Contractors will continue to work between 5am until 9pm each day (potentially working until 10pm, if safe to do so). We are liaising closely with the contractors to ensure that the works are completed as quickly as possible.
"As the former Central Plaza building has no owner (it is currently in escheat but rests with the Crown Estate), the City Council is duty bound to ensure that the property does not cause an immediate danger to persons in and around the building. This is covered under the Building Act 1984 s78 Dangerous Buildings – Emergency Measures."

Last night, after I nodded off at the table for the 3rd evening in a row, having been lost in thought and pretty detached from family dinner anyway, my son said, "Mom, just take a day, it doesn't matter, just take a day."
It would be nice to think he was genuinely concerned, taking care of me, wanting to pamper his mama. But the truth is, I think the emphasis might have been on the "it doesn't matter."
Hutch is a fledgling writer, a talented one, so it's not that he doesn't understand the creative impulse -- but he's a teenager, so he
a) does not understand denying oneself sleep for any reason, and
b) has never been a slightly ragged artist/parent, so it doesn't register for him that these few weeks, this cloister of time and space, are my lifeblood. That I need to do this. I need to be tired, sore, and insufferable, passing out in my noodles, and get up and do it again the next day.
Also he may just think, it really doesn't matter - and to be honest, he's probably not wrong.
I'm aware that the work that I do out here for few weeks each summer is neither the salt mines nor finding a cure for cancer. The family takes a vacation and I, somewhat arbitrarily, work harder in a certain way than I do all year round. There is, in fact, a method to my madness, but that's not what's important here -- what matters. What matters, of course, is simply doing it, running and writing, and putting it out there into the universe even when it feels unfinished, imperfect, raw.
I'm in the middle of week two, and I know from experience that this is when it gets hard. The body refuses, the mind is alternately too overwhelmed with random ideas to sort or shape them, and just completely blank. The writing dries up, the canyon's lips seal. The excitement, adrenaline, and fresh legs of the first week are replaced by boredom, indolence, and gams that feel like lead. It's too early in the process to have gained significant strength or speed, too late to be running on zeal. In this phase it's just stubbornness, and the belief -- or at least the commitment to believe, or the memory of the belief -- that it's worth it.
The first time I woke this morning the sun wasn't yet up over the mountain, but the sky was lighting up, and so pale that, as I squinted out the window, the black branches of the trees, still shadowed in the foreground, flattened out against the distant canyon walls, and held the bleached sky above in little V's so that it looked like the mountain peaks were ringed with snow. I tried to bring the image into focus. For a moment, I couldn't figure out where I was. Summer in Topanga or early spring in the Rockies?
After I'd blinked away the optical illusion, I checked the clock -- 20 minutes till my alarm. I could get up, sit on the deck and watch the canyon turn pink and gold. I could hit the trail early. Or I could "take a day" and go back to sleep.
I drifted away before I could decide. Heard my alarm, rolled over and shut it off.
The next time I woke, it was still early and everything was quiet. I grabbed my journal and pens and wandered downstairs and then outside, half asleep. It's not too late, I haven't missed the sunrise! It was cool, and the sky was still blue-white; a thin mist hovered out over the water, and a stocky fisherman stood on the hill in our front yard, with his line cast out in front of him. He turned and smiled at me over his shoulder and said something, and I said it's such a beautiful morning, and then I realized I was in nothing but a sheer camisole and panties and behind me was not the house in Topanga but my family's summer cottage at Thunder Bay on Lake Erie, where I first started writing stories as a little kid. I clutched my notebooks to my chest and dashed, barefoot, on tiptoe, up to the patio to get to my writing.
I knew I was sleeping and made an effort to climb out of it. I realized it was actually very late, we were late. I jumped out of bed and rushed into the kids' room but they were already downstairs, so I sat down on the carpet and got to work sorting Hutch's backpack. He came in, and asked me what I was doing and I said - Good thing I checked because as usual you don't have the right stuff in here. You need at least one full change of clothes, including warm socks, and a sweatshirt, and long pants. And he said Why? All I need is my bathing suit and I said, Take my word for it you'll be glad you have them, and do it quick because we're late to meet him and if you're going to be swimming across the ocean you're going to need warm things at night in your cabin. And as I said it my heart staggered and a sob yanked my throat but I didn't show it, I tried to act happy for him, and when we got to the beach I saw in his face the excitement and fright and determination and he swam away out to the boat and said hey to the gorgeous hippie surfer dude with the long streaky tangled hair and ratty shorts hanging on his stringy frame who smiled and said hey, man and reached a hand out over the hull to help Hutch climb aboard and I lay flat out in the sand at the edge of the water and ran my hands through the gravel, trying to get interested in its glitter.
I rolled over and Eric was gone from bed. I could smell coffee and everything was so still I could hear the pages of his book turning out on the deck.
Yesterday, after a morning run-hike in Red Rock Canyon with the dog, and just a couple hours of writing, we made our first trip of the year out to Point Dume.
In all seasons, all weather, at any time of day, it is my favorite beach. Mysterious, weird, and wonderful things happen to me there, sometimes; other times it's just a beautiful, inspiring place to sit alone and think, make up stories, or play with your family.
I feel at Point Dume the way I felt at Thunder Bay as a kid -- lonely but happy, full of stories and possibility. Young, ready. Vulnerable. Awake and dreamy. Tuned in and connected to...something. If I were a big "Star Wars" fan like my son, I might say that at Point Dume, The Force is With Me.
It was a perfect afternoon, all pure sun and blue sky, not too hot, but there wasn't, as their often is, a chilly wind, either. The waves were spectacular -- big rollers with a pummeling shore break, which, if you like that sort of thing can keep you entertained all day. They're really too sharp and steep for surfing or boogie boarding, but offer never ending opportunity to invent new ways to ride their backs or hurl yourself into their power and let them do what they will. What's great about this beach on such a day is that the waves will knock you silly, but always keep you close to shore. You come away a little scraped and bruised, exhausted, but exhilarated.
We picnicked, read books, snoozed in the sand. We played in the water for hours. And Hutch -- who is as big as I am now -- jumped on my back in the waves and we laughed and tumbled, snorted sea water, got a proper throttling. Sometimes I carried him, sometimes he carried me. And all day long that surly teen -- who is such a good kid, and we've always been close, but he knows how to push all my buttons, and is lately, especially, making a big production of pulling away from me -- was like a jubilant toddler experiencing the ocean for the first time. Making up games, telling the detailed story of every wave just like he did when he was little, eager to share it all with mommy.
He'll move on from us so soon, I wish every remaining day could be like this.
Later, Eric and I were sitting on the beach watching him play in the ocean, and he said, Look at him. He's so beautiful - out there, in his element.
The other day my friend who lives out here, and has an older teenage son, told me that when her kid was Hutch's age she realized that the ocean was exactly what he needed. For one, it was the only thing that could wear him out, channel that testosterone energy. For two, as the parent of a teenage boy, you are so often the minister of NO. No you can't drink that, smoke that; No you can't have the car; No you can't be on your devices all day; No you can't speak to me like that...
But the ocean is YES. Over and over it says, You want to come at me? Come on. Go for it. I'll push back and challenge and delight you. Hurl yourself into me every which way, you cannot tire me. I have boundless energy, imperturbable patience. Joy, sensation, thrill. Whatever you need, I have fathoms of it. I will hold you, rock you like a baby - just like you want - and no one has to know. You can let go, go wild, be free, be yourself. Yes yes yes.
No one wants to hear about other people's dreams; I promised myself never to subject anyone to mine. But I just couldn't shed those I had this morning, and they slipped into this post. Actually, I woke up, when I finally did, with the whole essay pretty much in my head. Dreams and all.
I woke knowing how those dreams, and the time I had with Hutch at Point Dume yesterday are connected. That what's true for my glorious, annoying, heartbreaking teenage son and his beloved Pacific, has such a strong parallel in the creative life. It is, I think, why Point Dume is such a mystical place for me; why, as partner to the canyon project, "taking a day" for ocean time like this matters --
Every writer, actor, artist of any kind faces many NOs. It's true that often the world, the establishment, the in-crowd says No -- No we don't want it; No, this person's more right for the job; No we're not buying what you're selling; No there's too many just like you, and a lot who are better, you're just so regular…
But really, if you're honest, most of the No comes from inside yourself. From doubt and shame about walking out in your skivvies in broad daylight, in front of total strangers with nothing but your tattered notebooks to hide behind, and for nothing because it doesn't matter anyway.
You need a place where you can go and flop about, dive deep, give up control, lose your bikini bottom, rinse yourself of all that petty inner life, cast your story upon the waters, take chances, sound your barbaric yawp, and let a power, a Force, so much greater than yourself say, keep at it, keep coming back, keep coming home, come, be a child again, I got you, I get you -- yes yes yes.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. You get my heart and capture all the thoughts I can never put in words. I am less and less frustrated as you capture more and more.

You put into words so many of the things I've always felt--about making art, about mothering, and about your babies moving on. Love it. Love you.

I had experienced earthquake feel I would say before also ~ once in Toronto in 98, Once in India ~ 2001 and this one was the ultimate Magnitude 5.6 earthquake shake…..what an experience!!!!
First I was thinking how to tell my top neighbors to walk softly …but by the time this thought cropped in, the whole base of my house started shaking and toppling kind…the chandlers were like the branches and leaves during a windy evening…oh god and guess what after the quake, the USGS reported four aftershocks all measuring under 2.0 within a span of four minutes. I experienced them all without any breaks ;)
"I couldn't help but be impressed by the magnitude of the earthquake."
"I couldn't help but be impressed by the magnitude of the earthquake."
Well we all were holding hands as the shake diminished :)
I guess it was nature's way of saying...trick or treat ;)

I was wondering why one keep saying I wanted my kid to be like this and like this. This means they are trying to bring certain values or teachings that probably according to them is good or supposed to be good and there children should have!
"We worry about what a child will become tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today." ~Stacia Tauscher
Looking at this complicated world and the time, I start thinking how my parents or even any parents of those times taught there kids good values…?
Well, all I can remember about my parents is that they never told me what to do. I was never taught I should be doing this or that. In fact rather than preaching they practiced. I learn certain things seeing what my parents did, how situations they handled and what kind of decisions were made. What one should say in front of others and what may offend others.
"Children are unpredictable. You never know what inconsistency they're going to catch you in next." ~Franklin P. Jones
The other day I met a lady for the first time, she had her 1 year old son who was calling his dad by name. I found it very natural though the mother started explaining, I teach him so many good things which he never remembers or never says but he calls his daddy by name which I never taught him.
It sounded funny but I said, because he hears what you call your husband. And true, kids learn from us by observing us and not by what we teach them…probably that's why they say the school begins at home!
"Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see." ~John W. Whitehead, The Stealing of
I think the message is that never try to teach kids something that you don't practice or else try to practice and then see how the kid learns faster!
"Children seldom misquote. In fact, they usually repeat word for word what you shouldn't have said." ~Author Unknown
Today is special day for two reasons…one for
"Life becomes precious and more special to us when we look for the little everyday miracles and get excited about the privileges of simply being human" ~ Tim Hansel
"Life becomes precious and more special to us when we look for the little everyday miracles and get excited about the privileges of simply being human" ~ Tim Hansel
Day started with a slight dry cough but the excitement of this cricket match was more severe than anything else!
By now the whole world know about it, I only want to say young people can always do better but the older ones can guide too ;)! Yes, that's what I feel- respect for those who did a good job in their time too!
"How you respond to the challenge in the second half will determine what you become after the game, whether you are a winner or a loser. " -Lou Holtz
The match started on a rough note but later took a good lead though the runs were not that good which would give a tough time to the Pak team!
When Pak innings came…it was going so well with all pressure on Pak that suddenly with bunch of sixes the pressure slowly slipped on to Indian team…boy this match was worth the money that people might have spent to watch it in South Africa. History was made!!!
History was made!!!
"The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a mans determination" -Tommy Lasorda
I was mesmerized with the win when my childhood friend came online and we were just chatting for hours, cherishing memories which will never come back neither we can go to them! I was amazed to hear about myself as a lot has changed and as my friend kept on saying about me…I was like exploring myself – the childhood and my nature as a kid!
We as friend supported each other, played so many games, read books and what not!!!
"True friendship consists not in the multitude of friends, but in their worth and value"
It was living that life again as my friend was reading the page out of our childhood.
I loved being with my friend and chatting for so long..!
We promised to be in touch with each other and not loose each other in the midst of busy life.
I am so glad my friend I found you at last :)
"Those truly linked don't need correspondence. When they meet again after many years apart, Their friendship is as true as ever" ~ Deng Ming-Dao
Lately lot of things happened…good and bad! But then I am a believer…what ever happens…it happens for good!
That's the policy hence I never regretted in life whatever has happened as everything is for a reason and to teach us the aspect of life. Sometimes we learn it from outside with others experience and sometimes it's within us with our own experience.
"Many of us crucify ourselves between two thieves - regret for the past and fear of the future." ~
But one thing I realized about people, that are when a person leaves an organization, place, town, city, state, country…people talk always about how bad they were and am not saying this is about every person but yes about few whom they always felt was a challenge for them to face. Some people don't like others just because they feel there presence makes them feel how less intelligent or good or whatever they are! And at such time people tend to avoid just so that there inability doesn't show up publicly!
"BACKBITE, v.t. To speak of a man as you find him when he can't find you." ~ Ambrose Bierce
When a person leaves the world…every one talks only good about him/her….why?
My question is why not be just true! Yeah I feel sorry the person had to die in this manner but he/she has hurt me once and I never was friendly to that person…by saying so is there any harm?
I think people don't have guts to talk about what they feel about people and I don't blame them as it could be again many reasons – one the person doesn't want any conflicts with people and two the person is scarred of the consequences etc!
We have quite a bunch of people at work who always make sure to make one or the other person's life miserable! Don't know why but they feel that's the way one should work!
Gosh! Why people forget about professionalism in a professional place is a big question!
I used to think housewives are the one who gossip as they have time for it…but I realize one can start that at work also if they are not occupied with enough work!
"If you haven't got anything nice to say about anybody, come sit next to me." ~Alice Roosevelt Longworth
How to deal with such people, who like to solve there problems such as getting sign offs etc by taking them to lunch! Its like they will not hesitate to insult a person in a meeting in a big audience and later take them for lunch :D…am just waiting when is my turn as I lately got an offer for lunch and am wondering what they want out of me :D!
To be thankful so far didn't get to work closely with them but am sure it will be fun if I do get as…it will be a matter of professionalism dealing with unprofessional: D
"Professionalism is knowing how to do it, when to do it, and doing it." ~ Frank Tyger
What I have written above is all the multiple thoughts that are taking place in mind due to many things happening at work…! Yeah that's what happens when I don't blog every day :D…! But am glad am able to track cricket match lately…good win by
"Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you, they're supposed to help you discover who you are." ~ Bernice Johnson Reagon
It's pandemic time and probably I am experiencing this for the first time in my life. Thank goodness for technology otherwise people wou...

Bolstered by smoky mezcal, bittersweet Aperol and the soft, tropical spices of falernum, this equal-parts cocktail couldn't be easier to assemble—or enjoy.
¾ oz. mezcal
¾ oz. Aperol
¾ oz. falernum
¾ oz. fresh lime juice
1 dash of Scrappy's Hellfire Bitters*
Tools: shaker, strainer
Glass: coupe
Garnish: lime wheel
Shake all ingredients together in a shaker tin with ice. Strain into a coupe and garnish with a lime wheel (the bar uses a dehydrated wheel, but that's optional).
*In lieu of the specialty bitters, Wheeler says adding a thin slice of fresh habanero pepper to the shaker tin will also add a small amount of heat and flavor to the drink. Remember to spice to taste, as habaneros can pack some serious heat!

Universal's "U-571" should rule the Easter Weekend box office waters.
The PG-13 World War II submarine drama, opening at 2,584 theaters, was a 17% first choice in studio tracking studies late in the week. With adult men making it a 29% first choice, it's on track to blast the adult male-driven drama "Rules of Engagement" out of first place.
"They could certainly do $18-20 million," predicts one insider. But that sounds high to another source, who cautions: "No females under 25 want to go see this movie. It's Nazis and subs and World War II."
"I don't know what the market will bear this weekend," says a distribution executive. Good Friday is typically a very strong box office day, but Saturday should only be fair, and Easter Sunday is never a great day for moviegoing.
A key factor affecting Easter weekend ticket sales, adds another studio source, "is the weather in the northeast. I don't think of it as being a substantial weekend necessarily. I don't think the holiday affects it that much. It's basically just another weekend. Where you really (benefit) is in mid-week business. You're seeing it this week and you'll see it next week when a lot of kids are out of school."
Directed by Jonathan Mostow, "U-571" stars Matthew McConaughey, Bill Paxton, Harvey Keitel and Jon Bon Jovi.
New Line's "Love & Basketball" looks like a slam dunk for second place.
Opening at over 1,100 theatres, its core audience will be young African-Americans. The PG-13 rated urban appeal drama was a 15% first choice in the tracking and could score about $11 million. With African-Americans 25 and under, its first-choice tracking is 57% with males and 64% with females. In terms of all moviegoers 25 and under, "Basketball's" first-choice numbers are 18% with males and 24% with females.
Written and directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood, it stars Omar Epps and Sanaa Lathan.
Paramount's "Rules of Engagement" should retreat to third place in its third week. A 30% drop would give it about $7.6 million.
Directed by William Friedkin, "Rules" stars Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L Jackson.
Columbia's PG-13 rated dramatic comedy "28 Days" should slide to fourth place in its second week. If it holds up well and only drops 30%, it will do about $7 million.
Directed by Betty Thomas, "Days" stars Sandra Bullock and Viggo Mortensen.
Universal's Julia Roberts blockbuster comedy drama "Erin Brockovich" should round out the Top Five. If it falls 30%, it will do about $5 million in its sixth week.
The Jersey Films production, co-financed by Universal and Columbia, is directed by Steven Soderbergh and also stars Albert Finney and Aaron Eckart.
Warner Bros.' R rated drama "Gossip," opening at 1,525 theaters, isn't likely to have much to shout about. With a first-choice tracking of 5%, it will be a struggle for it to crack the Top Five.
"It's probably very young (and female in its appeal)," says an insider. "With movies like that, the marketing does its work in the last few days." He sees "Gossip" benefiting from kids being out of school for Good Friday.
Directed by Davis Guggenheim, it stars James Marsden, Lena Headey, Norman Reedus, Kate Hudson, Marisa Coughlan and Joshua Jackson.
Filling out lower rungs on the chart: "American Psycho," "Keeping the Faith" and "The Road to El Dorado."
Paramount Classics' R rated drama about teen suicide, "The Virgin Suicides," goes into limited release with limited prospects.
Written and directed by Sofia Coppola, it stars James Woods, Kathleen Turner, Kirsten Dunst and Josh Hartnett.
