because a picture is worth a thousand words...

boy with cast on his arm

Jesse fell last night while roller-blading, and immediately complained that his right wrist was hurting. (Actually, the complaint was that it hurt "inside the bone".) We iced it and put an ace bandage on for stability.

It still hurt this morning, so we headed to the doctor's office. He has a buckle fracture of his right radius. (I found an x-ray that looks similar to his.) Also known as an incomplete fracture and a greenstick fracture, it means a minimum of three weeks in a cast and more x-rays while they verify that it's healing correctly.

It also means no playing in the soccer tournament this weekend, no more soccer this season, no bike riding, no swimming, no karate...and lots of complaining about how he can't write ;-)

It's gonna be a long three weeks!

Quadralay revamps EULA (from Palimpsest)

At Palimpsest, Sarah O'Keefe (Scriptorium Publishing) has recapped the issues on Quadralay and their now revamped EULA. Read Water from a a stone? for the introduction, and Update: ePublisher Pro license.

(This reminds me...at least a little bit...of the brouhaha that took place when eHelp quietly revamped the license for WebHelp back in 2000. I can't remember the entire story, and all the old sites that I'd use for reference are gone now, but I do remember that the license was changed pretty quickly after the issue was pointed out.)
