![]() The gastrocnemius muscle is made up of separate lateral and medial heads. Muscles of the posterior compartment are in two subdivisions: a superficial and deep layer. During midstance and terminal stance, in particular, the plantar flexors of the ankle play a pivotal role as they eccentrically control dorsiflexion, and concentrically allow acceleration of the foot. The stance phase of gait can further divides into a heel strike (where initial contact is made with the ground), a loading response (where the weight of the body is accepted), a midstance (where the knee stabilzation occurs), and a terminal stance (where mass is accelerated forward). Gait is most commonly subdivided into a stance phase and a swing phase (although additional phases can exist depending on clinical scenario). Independent activation, as well as coordination amongst the seven muscles of the posterior leg, is crucial in maintaining balance, facilitating gait, and allowing actions such as stair climbing, jumping, and landing. The popliteus muscle controls weak flexion of the knee and medial rotation of the tibia. The tibialis posterior is primarily involved in ankle plantar flexion as well as inversion of the foot. The flexor digitorum longus is involved in flexion of the other four toes of the foot, plantarflexion of the ankle as well, and also maintains the lateral and medial longitudinal arches of the foot. Additionally, it supports the medial longitudinal arch of the foot. The flexor hallucis longus is primarily involved with flexing the big toe while also having limited contribution to plantar flexion of the ankle. The deep posterior compartment muscles include the flexor hallucis longus, flexor digitorum longus, tibialis posterior and popliteus muscles. The plantaris, a muscle that is thought to be absent in 10% of the population, is also involved in plantar flexion of the ankle but plays a limited compared to the other two superficial posterior muscles. ![]() The soleus is involved in plantar flexion of the ankle, irrespective of knee position. The gastrocnemius is involved in plantar flexion of the ankle, while the knee is in extension, and also is involved in flexing the leg at the knee joint. Together these three muscles form the triceps surae. ![]() The three muscles within the superficial posterior compartment include the gastrocnemius, soleus, and plantaris muscles. However, current thinking realizes that fascia, such as that of the posterior leg compartment, are not only involved in creating osteofascial compartments for muscles but also provide protective tunnels for neovascular bundles irrespective of limb positions, facilitate venous return, act as protective sheaths, dissipate external pressures, and are clinically significant in the spread or containment of infections. It was traditionally felt that the fascia overlying specialized organs and tissues within the body are irrelevant and only served to hold in place a particular tissue type. Within the posterior compartment of the leg, an additional septum further separates the compartment into two additional layers superficial and deep. The divisions of the lower leg are made up by intermuscular septa that are extensions of the overlying fascia.

![]() Luckily, 23 percent of Americans are already expecting their partners to spend less this year, so there’s less pressure to break the bank. Buying a gift is never worth going into debt, especially during this period of high inflation. ![]() “Even if we can explain this statistic, though, that doesn’t mean it’s a good thing. Gonzalez said that men are more likely to think buying a Valentine’s Day gift is worth going in to credit card debt because of societal expectations of men when it comes to dating and historical gender roles. Thankfully, people with bad credit are able to improve their credit score over time if they stick to a budget and practice responsible credit use.” Bad credit can cause someone to lose hundreds of thousands of dollars over their lifetime, so that statistic is unsurprising. “If you’re looking to settle down, it’s a good idea to make sure you have a decent credit score, as over 47 percent of people would not marry someone with bad credit. In fact, half of Americans would break up with their significant other if they spent irresponsibly,” Gonzalez said. “People want to date people who are financially responsible, especially as high inflation continues to put stress on many Americans’ wallets. WalletHub Analyst Jill Gonzalez offered opinion on whether Americans in the dating scene worry about credit scores and financial literacy. In 2027, global dating services will account for $28.3 billion of the market. Online dating activity between February 1 and February 14 increases by 33 percent. Twenty-five percent of American marriages begin with online relationships. Men will spend twice as much as women for Valentine’s Day. Not only could bad credit keep you single, but reckless spending could end your relationship: half of Americans would break up with someone if they were irresponsible with money. Nearly 1 in 5 Americans think going into credit card debt is worth it to buy a Valentine’s Day gift.Ībout half of Americans surveyed would not marry someone with a bad credit score. 20.Īccording to WalletHub, 36 percent of Americans will not go out to dinner on Valentine’s Day because they say it’s too expensive. San Francisco is the top place for Valentine’s Day in 2023, followed by Seattle, San Diego, Las Vegas and Portland. Data includes florists per capita, forecasted precipitation and the cost of a three-course meal for two. ![]() WalletHub compared 100 of the largest U.S. The personal finance website also released its 2023 Valentine’s Day Spending Survey, which revealed that more than 1 in 4 Americans expect their Valentine not to spend money on gifts this year. WalletHub released its report on 2023’s Best Places for Valentine’s Day. Americans are expected to spend $25.9 billion on Valentine’s Day this year. ![]() This feature means, for example, that if one forgets to close an e-mail client before synchronizing files, even the open e-mail database will be copied to the target. In contrast, ViceVersa handles open files (e.g., Outlook. The option Use Volume Shadow Copy Service to copy open files solves a problem that afflicts SyncToy: it cannot copy open files. For example, if an address book has been changed on both the source and the target since the last synchronization, it would be appropriate to identify which changes should be merged into the file (e.g., new entries). The Tracking Database allows identification of pairs of files in which both the source version and the target version have changed from a previous state during synchronization, such pairs are identified as potentially requiring manual reconciliation. Consolidation: like synchronization except that no deletions are involved – for example, if a file was deleted from the source but still present on the target, it would be copied back to the source.Īnother sophisticated feature is the Tracking Database, which is required for synchronization.Update: new and updated files on source copied to target.Refresh: updated files on source are copied to target.Augment: new files on source are added to target. ![]() Backup (Mirror Source to Target): target becomes identical to the source using copies of new and updated files and folders.Synchronization (Bidirectional): duplicate all changes in source and target so that every operation on either side of the pair is duplicated on the other (e.g., new files and folders, updated files, deleted files).The details are fully explained in the Help facility the following is a summary of the options: One of the most useful aspects of ViceVersa is its range of options for synchronization. Wildcard inclusion and exclusion strings can define subsets of files within the source folders that should be synchronized these individual definitions are called Profile Settings and can be saved with unique names for recall and reuse. If the original sequence of drive letters for removable disks on encrypted partitions becomes disrupted (for example, by inserting a new device before the older ones have received their usual file letters), one does not have to use disk management to reassign letters – or in some cases, to reboot the system – to continue with synchronization. It is not necessary to delete and recreate a synchronization pair simply to reflect, say, a change in drive letter. One of the useful differences between SyncToy and ViceVersa is that the latter allows edits on any aspect of a synchronization pair. ![]() ![]() Never one to rest on his laurels, the would-be champion learned new skills in the ring and also learned about the sport’s day-to-day operations, becoming a booker and later investing in the promotion, Heart of America Wrestling. In the early 1970’s Race shifted his attention to wrestling’s top prize-the world heavyweight championship. “Handsome” Harley’s work caught the eye of Japanese promoters who invited him to wrestle for him, a rare honor for Americans. The roughhouse duo won AWA Tag Team Titles several times, feuding with popular AWA stars including the Crusher, Dick the Bruiser, and Verne Gagne. The gutsy grappler worked in several territories before settling in the American Wrestling Association (AWA), where he formed a lengthy tag team partnership with Larry Hennig. Nonetheless, Race was told he’d be lucky if he ever walked again, let alone wrestle.įor the next two years, Race endured a painful rehabilitation process that paid off and he returned to the squared circle. Harley’s friend and promoter, Gus Karras sent Race to a bone specialist and the leg was saved. A horrific car crash killed Race’s pregnant wife and Race himself was so severely injured that medical personnel told him one of his legs had to be amputated. However, like fellow legend Ric Flair, an accident nearly ended both Race’s career and his life. Race continued honing his skills until it seemed the world was his for the taking. These encounters taught Race how to defend himself in just about every conceivable situation in the ring, a talent Race sometimes relied on when fans jumped into the ring or attacked him on his way in or out of the ring. This meant Race could face anyone from an ornery farmer to the local barroom brawler looking to get their hands on the prize money. As easy as this gig seemed, it didn’t always go according to plan and sometimes a real contestant made it to the ring before the plant. ![]() Later on, he would graduate to being the wrestler who took on the plant in the audience. Race started off by posing as an ordinary Joe who would take up the wrestler’s challenge. During the shows, a wrestler would challenge someone from the audience, offering a cash prize to anyone who could beat him. These carnivals required tough performers because a wrestler never knew who was going to step into the ring. Race worked these carnivals, further learning the trade and how to protect himself in the ring. Zbyszko took Race under his wing and taught him the basics before Harley met promoter Gus Karras, who operated wrestling shows at carnivals. Race worked as a farm hand and in an amazing instance of happenstance, the farm was owned by Stanislaus Zbyszko, a legendary wrestler from the early 20 th century. Given the option to apologize and return, Race opted to leave school and devoted his free time to fulfilling his dream of becoming a professional wrestler. At 15, Race was expelled from school for punching out his principal. Missouri native Harley Race was never one to let someone tell him what to do, defying authority throughout his life. Race battled adversity numerous times in his life, stared down death more than once, and was the last of the wrestling world’s shooters, a champion who could defend the belt for real should his opponent try and pull a double-cross. Harley Race, a familiar face to wrestling fans for decades, an icon in the wrestling world, a record-setting National Wrestling Heavyweight Champion, and one of the toughest and most respected figures in professional wrestling.

Athletes started using compression socks in the hopes of gaining similar benefits in improved blood flow. The compression also reduces the risk of blood clots. The use of compression socks during training aims to help the skeletal-muscle pump, increase deep venous velocity, and/or decrease blood pooling in the calf veins and alleviate delayed-onset muscle soreness. The compression also reduces the risk of blood clots. Originally developed for the treatment of deep-vein thrombosis, compression socks are now marketed as a tool to improve venous return, thus believed to improve both performance and recovery in athletes. Companies are increasingly marketing compression stockings to runners, triathletes, and other endurance athletes for the benefits of improved performance and/or decreased recovery time.

Overall, PortraitPro is a delight to use, even though my retouching style doesn’t warrant taking full advantage of all its retouching features. Adobe generates TIF files, PortraitPro uses the newer convention TIFF files. TIF and TIFF are, practically speaking, the same extension. I’ve been exporting TIF files from Lightroom, batch editing them in PortraitPro, and then renaming the generated TIFF files to TIF so that Lightroom recognizes the edited files. Why the last one? It’s more of a workaround for the lack of batch editing from Lightroom. While the “eyes closed” buttons worked nicely in other situations, I didn’t see an option for “eyes off” in that specific situation.īeyond that, I have a couple things I’d love to see in future versions: the ability to run a batch edit from a selection of Lightroom images, the ability to export PortraitPro’s background mask to Photoshop, and flexibility in the TIFF file extension. Is there anything PortraitPro can’t do? I encountered one situation where my subject was in profile view with her eyes closed. But, should you ever need it, it’s nice to know that PortraitPro has covered all the bases as far as makeup, hair, skin, and backgrounds. I’ll preface my conclusion by saying that I don’t expect anyone to use all the features in this software for everyday retouching. Compare the original capture (top photo) to the edited version (bottom photo). PortraitPro 18 works extremely well for smoothing skin tone and opening eyes just a bit wider. This is a big improvement over the last version I tested, which required starting from scratch in PortraitPro if you wanted to change your retouching after running the Photoshop plugin. When you run PortraitPro and return to Photoshop, a Smart Filter layer is created that you can toggle off or use to tweak later edits. My favorite upgrade is the ability to enable non-destructive editing with smart filters in Photoshop (Filter > Convert for Smart Filters). There are also improvements to hair, skin, and eye controls, including an “open/closed” eyes feature. I created my own preset with a natural, authentic look that matches my own style.Ĭompared to its predecessor, PortraitPro 18 has faster and more accurate facial recognition (with more draggable points), an improved restore brush, better background masking, options for layers such as a logo or other overlay on top of the image, and more. Fortunately, there’s an easy fix: custom presets. The default retouching preset is too heavy-handed for my style, particularly with facial sculpting. PortraitPro takes retouching to the next level, or maybe even beyond. Either close out the auto batch immediately or tweak individual images as desired. At this point, the extent of PortraitPro’s efficiency is up to you. You can select a folder of images (I use the Windows dialog menu to search for just the TIF files I’ve created in a given folder), and PortraitPro will grind away at recognizing facial features and applying retouching presets to each one. While PortraitPro is good for editing individual images, where it really shines is in batch mode. Version 18 also allows you to completely mask all edits in an area. There’s even a retouching brush you can use to paint over blemishes that escaped the first round of auto retouching and a restore brush that can remove retouching. On the right side of the screen is a menu toolbar full of sliders and selections-skin lightening, skin masks, eyes, makeup-you name it, PortraitPro pretty much has it covered. Upon opening an image, PortraitPro automatically detects faces and attempts to determine age and gender (adult male, adult female, child), but you can override mistakes. assists consumers in making the most cost-effective decisions!
