In the somewhat big business model that Bon Appétit works in , we value relationships with suppliers as a true partnership. Especially with the smaller, local, non-corporate types like our farmers, ranchers and artisans. The cultures are very different and we work hard at understanding each other. We forgive when them the strawberries come in a bit over-ripe or the greens a little dirtier then usual. They understand when we get a little huffy about late deliveries. We are grateful when a farmer calls at the last minute to tell us they are sitting on 500 cases of beautifully sweet ripe peaches that need to move. We believe we’re getting something special and we act quickly to create a region wide promotion. They are grateful when we send our managers to the orchards to pick up and deliver the peaches to our cafes.\nSometimes, our partners get in trouble and we feel compelled to jump in give them a hand. This week I talked with one of our many partner David Evans, who owns a small ranch operation in No. California called Marin Sun Farms. His grass fed beef is served at several of our San Francisco units. We’ve watched him grow his business with us and we feel a responsibility to his success. I called him because I had heard that the local slaughter house, where David takes his animals, is on the market for sale to an urban developer. This is typical of what is happening to much of our farm land in this country. The loss of a local slaughter house in this region would be devastating to small ranchers like David AND to the many eaters who enjoy the great flavors these ranchers send our way.\nI called because I wanted to know what the issue was. I wanted to understand how this would impact his operation. I wanted him to know that we would do what we could to help him through this. Fortunately David is bright young dynamic man who is moving fast with a solution for himself and his small ranch peers in No CA. Not surprising. When I first met him a few years ago, he had a strong vision of how he was going to change the supply chain. Just less then a year ago, floods in No. CA destroyed a new business venture and set him back big time. Now, while facing another challenge, he is even more determined to keep moving his business moving forward. After our phone conversation, David knows that if he needs to he can call on us. See, we’re partners. We’ll put on our somewhat big business 10 gallon hat, and figure somethin’ out. |
The efficacy of potassium sorbate (K-sorb) as an antifungal, alone or combined with thiabendazole (TBZ), and hot water at 53 °C, was studied against blue mold on apples. Results demonstrated the fungistatic effect of K-sorb: 2000 mg L−1 significantly reduced Penicillium expansum growth, and a 24 h delay in fungi development was observed in the amended liquid culture. K-sorb at 1% significantly diminished decay incidence, especially when applied at 53 °C. The performance of TBZ was not improved by the co-application of K-sorb. Treatments efficacy was related to K-sorb distribution on fruit surface. ESEM and X-ray qualitative spectra analyses revealed an irregular distribution of K-sorb over the fruit surface and areas with salt accumulation. K-sorb residues remained quite unchanged until 3 d of storage then they declined progressively. Their degradation was influenced by water temperature: it was faster on fruit treated at 53 °C. An inverse relation between P. expansum growth and K-sorb concentration was observed. After 72 h of incubation, P. expansum depleted 99% of K-sorb from liquid culture media.\nThe low efficacy of K-sorb treatments against blue mold decay on apple fruit may be ascribed to the low persistence of K-sorb residues, to the irregular spatial distribution of the salt on the fruit surface, and the ability of P. expansum to degrade the salt. |

AspenRidge Recovery now provides Vivitrol shot services in Colorado. Below you will find information about this treatment option. Please reach out to us if you need more information about this specific part of our program.\nAre you living with an active opiate or opioid addiction?\n472 people died of opiate-related deaths in Colorado in 2015, almost twice the amount of deaths due to homicide (205). Opiate-related deaths have surpassed homicides every year since 2011.\nAlthough heroin and prescription opioids are not as impactful of an issue in Colorado as they are in other states, the death rate due to overdose continues to rise each year.\nAs the trend continues, deaths due to opiates could surpass those due to firearms and even diabetes in the state of Colorado.\nThe entire United States reflects the alarming uptick in opiate-related deaths as well. 33,091 individuals died of a heroin or opioid overdose in 2015, making up more than half of the 52,404 drug overdose deaths in 2015.\nNearly 2.6 million people ages 12 and older live with a substance use disorder involving prescription opioids, heroin, or both. Almost 1 out of every 4 people who try heroin develop an opiate addiction. The rising trend of opiate and opioid addiction shows no sign of stopping soon as rates continue rising every year.\nAddiction is not a disease with a cure. Although it can be managed, relapse is common. A reported 40 to 60 percent of addicts relapse at some point in their life, with actual rates likely even higher. Relapse doesn’t mean you are a failure but each relapse is dangerous and like playing a game of Russian Roulette. You never know which high could be your last.\nAs prescription opioid and heroin rates rise each year, solutions for the addiction epidemic become increasingly necessary. Vivitrol shots are one such solution. Vivitrol is a revolutionary medication intended to decrease the chance of relapse.\nAre you living with an active opiate or opioid addiction? Could the use of Vivitrol shots help keep you sober during early recovery? Continue on to learn more about Vivitrol and its uses, side effects, using drugs and drinking on Vivitrol, and how to find a doctor to prescribe Vitriol shots near you.\nWhat is Vivitrol and How is it Used to Help You Stay Sober?\nVivitrol is an injectable medication prescribed to recovering addicts, used to manage cravings and block the effects of opiates and opioids. The active ingredient in shots of Vivitrol is Naltrexone, a common drug taken by opiate and opioid addicts in early recovery. Prescription Vivitrol is offered only as an intramuscular shot administered once a month.\nVivitrol shots function by blocking the euphoria and sedation experienced on a heroin or prescription opioid high. By rendering you unable to get “high,” they help limit the chance of relapse.\nBy beginning treatment with the new Vivitrol services offered at AspenRidge Recovery, you can establish a solid foundation of sobriety. You will receive an individualized treatment plan with a combination of medication management and therapy with the support of a qualified and compassionate team.\nVivitrol vs. Suboxone – Are They the Same Thing?\nSuboxone is a Buprenorphine and Naltrexone medication used to manage opiate and opioid withdrawal symptoms. Doctors often use it during the detoxification period and wean you off of it due to its high potential for addiction. Suboxone is also an opioid medication and should be used only under your doctor’s supervision.\nVitriol shots are used as a longer-term medication to help prevent relapse. It is not a detoxification medication. Vivitrol should be used only after the detox period is complete, at least 7 to 10 days after the last time you use opiates. There is little chance of you becoming addicted to Vivitrol, and much less likely than addiction to Suboxone.\nBoth Suboxone and Vivitrol are used as long-term medications for opiate and opioid addiction treatment. Suboxone has proved to be more effective when used for the long-term or followed up with a medication like Vitriol. If you only use Suboxone to detox and then nothing afterwards, your chances of relapse are higher.\nHowever, comparing the functioning of Vivitrol vs. Suboxone shows the difference in their operation. Suboxone is an opioid that works by activating the opioid receptors to reduce cravings. Vivitrol is not an opioid and blocks opioid receptors to keep opiates and opioids from working. This is why people become addicted to Suboxone and not Vivitrol; Suboxone is essentially a replacement opioid.\nThe benefit of Suboxone vs. Vivitrol is the lower cost. A monthly dose of Vivitrol costs between $800 and $1,000 without insurance, almost twice the amount of a month’s supply of Suboxone. This makes Suboxone a more accessible method of treatment, but it is important not to miss a dose.\nDoctors recommend taking both Suboxone and Vivitrol for around a year. This allows you time to develop proper relapse prevention methods and coping skills necessary for long-term recovery. Without these skills, relapse is inevitable, regardless of your medication treatment. Just like any other disease, you need to actively treat your addiction after the medication portion of treatment is over.\nVivitrol shots can provide incredible benefits to your life, such as giving you time to recover from your addiction. You can develop the skills necessary to succeed while clean and sober. It gives you a time cushion. Vivitrol does not come without its side effects, though.\nVivitrol shots come with more serious side effects, too. One of the most important side effects to keep in mind is the risk of death from overdose. Since Vivitrol functions as an opioid blocker, it prevents you from getting high. Some people try to overcome the blockers by using greater amounts of opiates or opioids which results in serious health complications, coma, or even death.\nVivitrol shots also lower your tolerance to opiates and opioids. A typical dose for you before you got clean has the potential to harm or kill you once you stop taking Vivitrol. You are particularly at risk right before a shot, if you suddenly stop taking the medication, and once your treatment is over. You must remain mindful of the increased risk involved when taking Vivitrol.\nIf any of these signs appear and last for two weeks or more, talk to your doctor.\nVitriol shots can sometimes cause a depressed mood, leading to suicide, suicidal thoughts, or suicidal behavior.\nTaking Vivitrol shots near you can also treat alcohol dependence so drinking on Vivitrol is highly discouraged. You should never use drugs while on Vivitrol, especially opiates or opioids.\nVivitrol costs a lot, especially without insurance. If you are part of an inpatient program like that at AspenRidge Recovery, though, oftentimes the cost of Vivitrol shots is included with your treatment. Inpatient treatment is a great opportunity to begin Vivitrol treatment and allow your body the opportunity to adjust to the medication.\nIf you do not attend inpatient drug and alcohol rehab, you can receive a prescription for Vivitrol from your doctor. Any doctor who can prescribe medication can be a Vivitrol doctor. You will report back monthly to the doctor’s office to receive your intramuscular Vivitrol shot.\nAre you wondering, “How can I get a Vivitrol shot near me?” begin by making an appointment with your primary care physician. They will determine the best course of action and either develop a treatment plan or refer you to another facility.\nReceiving Vivitrol shots near you is possible regardless of where you are. Any doctor who can prescribe medication can prescribe you Vivitrol. The best way to receive treatment, though, is through a qualified addiction rehabilitation facility. When you attend inpatient treatment at AspenRidge Recovery, our staff will determine the best course of care for your situation.\nHow Can You Find a Vivitrol Shot Near You?\nThe first step to find out about Vivitrol treatment is to consult with your primary care physician. Your doctor can either prescribe the medication or direct you to a specialist who can.\nRemember, you need to be completely detoxified from opiates or opioids before starting. The Vivitrol website suggests at least 7 to 14 days clean. Attending a detox facility can help you get clean from the opiates in order to begin Vivitrol treatment.\nThe best way to receive Vivitrol shot treatment is through a specialized addiction treatment facility. When you attend inpatient rehab at AspenRidge Recovery, Vivitrol is included as part of your individualized treatment program. Those who receive injections must also actively meet with their psychiatrist to work on their mental health and learn appropriate behaviors to avoid relapse.\nAttending an addiction rehab center provides well-rounded care both through medication and therapy services. With the help of addiction treatment you will learn to manage life sober during individual and group therapy.\nVivitrol shots help relieve cravings and block the effects of opioids and opiates, but Vivitrol alone will not keep you sober. Although it keeps you from getting high, you can stop the treatment at any time and get loaded again. The only way to achieve long-term sobriety, with or without Vivitrol, is to develop the proper habits to keep you sober.\nVivitrol shots work best when used in combination with one-on-one counseling, group therapy, or 12-step meeting participation. No drug can keep you sober on its own, especially if you do not put in the work on your end. It takes practice to learn to live life without drugs when they have been your go-to coping mechanism for years. Without replacing that coping mechanism with a healthy one, relapse is inevitable.\nThrough the therapeutic support provided with your Vivitrol treatment at AspenRidge Recovery, you develop a community of people to hold you accountable. From your treatment team to your peers in group, everyone involved with your recovery has your sobriety in mind. Since you receive the best results with Vivitrol when they’re combined with therapy and counseling, attending treatment at AspenRidge Recovery simplifies the process.\nThe most important thing to remember is that you should never use drugs or drink while on Vivitrol. Mixing alcohol and drugs with the medication can cause serious complications. Be aware of any side effects of the Vivitrol shots and inform your doctor if they arise.\nTo ensure the best chance of success with your Vitriol treatment, continue to attend counseling, group therapy, or a 12-step program.\nThese programs will provide the groundwork for you to learn how to live life clean and sober. Without the help of your fellows in recovery, staying sober will prove difficult. Keep in close contact with your counselor or group during your Vivitrol treatment to make sure you receive the best outcome possible.\nOur admissions coordinators are here to help you get the right detox services in a timely manner. We can verify your insurance and meet your transportation needs as well. |

It’s been quite a while since both of us had a beach holiday, I think the last one was Bali? Since there’s less events during the Puasa month, we decided to head over to PD for a short holiday. This is also the 1st time Kendric went for an away trip (If you want to read about Kayden’s 1st trip, click here) being 7 months old.\nWe stayed at the Thistle Hotel, got it a promo price of RM300 per night from latestays.com. The hotel is nice and cozy with a very big swimming pool. The last time I was there was during my Amex days where we had our teambuilding, at that time, it’s still called Guoman.\nSpacious bedroom with 2 single beds, and plenty of room for Kendric to walk around in his walker.\nThere’s also a day bed by the window which is a great spot to do some portrait shots.\nAnother shot with Kayden and Kendric.\nThis is also Kayden’s first time to the beach.\nKayden playing the sand cautiously, I think he doesn’t like to get his hands dirty.\nPrefer to play the bubble machine more!\nSwimming in the kids pool with 2 arm floats. There’s a water slide in the pool as well and after I brought him once on the slide (with me ended up losing my specs in the water), he’s brave enough to do it on his own…until May decided to let him off the slide sideways. He ended up not playing with it anymore.\nThe view at night. Both of them ended up very tired and slept early.\nA very sleepy Kayden, while waiting for breakfast. The buffet spread in the restaurant was alright and there’s lots of people despite being a Monday, guess a lot of people take the day off as well.\nKendric’s first time in the pool, and also peeing the first time in the pool.\nAt first he was just licking all over the float but after a while he started kicking the water.\nWhenever Kayden needs to pee, he will come up from the water and requested to go to pee. You don’t see that in a lot of 2 year olds I guess?\nToday marks the 4th anniversary of our ROM…heading for a small feast tonight. |

UCSD is a great campus if you're enrolled in one of the science majors, and offers one of the best biology/chemistry programs in the state. The teachers seem to be very involved in their own research, but they definitely know their subject matter.\nLower division classes are jammed full (on average, there are approx. 300 students in the introductory classes) but once you start getting further up in your major, you'll see that classes become much smaller and much more personalized. I was fortunate enough have upper division standing my first year, so I got to experiment with upper division classrooms, and the atmostphere was wonderful.\nUCSD also has a college system: Muir, Revelle, Thurgood Marshall, Roosevelt, Warren and 6th College. Each college offers a different space for on-campus living (architecture differs as well) and different GEs. Other than that, it really makes no difference which one you choose. Heads up for the froshies—Revelle has the toughest GEs and Muir offers the lightest. The reshalls and apartments at Muir aren't exactly wonderful (I've heard them referred to as "cement tombstones") but I've heard rave reviews for the Marshall uppers and Pepper Canyon. Roosevelt has newly built reshalls and dining facilities (as of 2003) and is located by a large parking lot (important as you will see later).\nParking is a big negative at UCSD. More permits are sold than spots, but that doesn't detract from the cost of the permits, which make a hefty dent in one's pocket. Students who live on the farthest, north-east section of campus (AKA Warren) at times are forced to park in the far SOUTH-WEST side of campus (AKA Revelle). Shuttles are constantly running throughout the work-week in order to get students to and from the farther parking lots. They're always full when I see them rush on past.\nAs for the social scene, it's there if you can find it, you just have to look hard enough. Unlike UCLA, which has Westwood, UCSD is not quite as close to shops, malls, theaters, etc. though they do exist… merely farther down the street. I've had to take the city shuttle to the mall, so unless you get to know the bus route or have a friend with a car, you won't be getting very far on your own. |

January 18, 2017 Update - Dr. Credit Card is back!\nThis is Sean, aka Dr. Credit Card. First of all, I would like to wish every reader of the site a happy 2017! It is pretty crazy that the last blog post was almost two months ago - I bought a new house and moved in recently and have been unable to keep up. Even though there have been updates on the site here and there, I wish more could have been done. Now we have been slowly settling in, the site should be back to normal. Here are some highlights of the recent updates.\nOur No. 1 credit card Chase Sapphire Reserve is now offering an online signup bonus of 50K points, down from 100K that was offered since its introduction in August 2016. However, you can still receive the 100K bonus when you walk into a branch and apply. Note that the infamous 5-24 rule (you will be denied the new account when you have opened 5 or more new credit cards in the past 24 months) still applies when you do that. Hurry up if you haven't got this amazing card - source says the in-branch 100K offer will last through March but you never know if Chase decides to pull it earlier.\nBarclays has made American Airlines Aviator Red MasterCard available to new customers, with a signup bonus of 40K. This means Citi is no longer the sole issuer of American Airlines' credit card products. We welcome the competition.\nWe are very sad to see one of our favorite card for perks Chase Fairmont Visa has been discontinued for new applications due to Accor's acquisition of Fairmont, Raffles, Swissotel. Fairmont Visa has been offering an amazing signup bonus (two free nights, possibly in a suite, plus breakfasts) and is also one of the credit cards to keep paying annual fees without spending a dime.\nChase Southwest Plus Visa's 50K offer is back. While the higher annual fee Southwest Premier Visa has been offering 50K, it has been a while since last time we saw Plus Visa's 50K offer.\nCiti has increased the signup bonus of Citi Prestige from 40K to 50K, while decreasing the signup bonus of the ThankYou Premier from 40K to 30K.\nDoctor, welcome back! Is there a way to apply for Aviator Silver and get a bonus?\nCurrently there is no way to apply Aviator Silver and get a signup bonus. You have to request the upgrade from Aviator Red to make the product change.\nWelcome back ... really appreciate the content provided for this website. Very informative. Thanks. |

Corner location and smaller tasting room, but staff was very happy and knowledgeable, even directing us to other winery locations. We like semi-sweet to sweet wines and they provided. Tasted 6 wines and bought all but 1.\nIt’s street corner, metal building entrance to the tasting room didn’t create the best first impression or ambiance for me. But up the hill they have nicer grounds and there is actually some nice outdoor seating areas back at the tasting room too. Go there with a few friends on a nice fall day or evening and the ambiance would be just fine. We liked several of the wines here. The price points on many of them were very nice as well. We liked their Norton. My wife thought it was very good. She felt it had a buttery undertone that she hadn’t picked up in any other Nortons. I couldn’t make this flavor out myself but I still felt this was a nice Norton at a 3+ to 4 stars. They were sold out of their Norton Reserve so it might have been better yet. I liked their Reserve Red which is a blend of Norton, Chambourcin and St. Vincent. As I tasted their Chambourcin, I thought it was rather flat compared to their Nortons. The hostess pointed out that this Chambourcin is a great compliment to foods such as pizza and its lighter character wouldn’t overpower the food. Upon a few more sips and taking her words in, I concede her point. Their Chambourcin as a table wine is nice too. Finally, I liked their unoaked Chardonnel at a ridiculously low price of $9.13 a bottle. Then there is their Vintage Port which is a very special Port and again at a very reasonable price. This Port is a solid 4 stars.\nThe server there was almost bitter that other wineries in the area charge for tastings and she did not. Almost proud that she gave away free booze. After tasting the blackberry wine, I wouldn't charge for it either. Awkward place. Vignoles was okay.\nThe very best wines in Augusta and probably in Missouri. Prices are very reasonable. Love the dry reds. I can't say enough good about this winery. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable.\nNice Norton, Chambourcin, and Reserve Red blend of Chambourcin, Norton and St. Vincent. The 05 Norton was spectacular, and the 07, which they're serving now, is nice, but not as great as the 05. Very knowledgeable staff and cozy tasting room. With a small fee, you can have a special Norton tasting which will allow you to take a Reidel Norton glass home. This was the best Norton of the Augusta wineries.\nNorton Wine Review: Augusta's Norton "Cynthiana" is a good standard by which to judge other Missouri Norton wines. It is a very good Norton wine which tends to be a bit "cherried" intense in flavors, yet dry in taste. Like all Augusta's wines, this Norton is a bit more reasonable in cost compared to other vineyards.\nSome of the best wine in Augusta. Also the best prices for great wine. They just opened a nice wine patio and serve beer.\nbought their norton blend. needs to age 3 years. people very nice. parking difficult. good website. Bought a case of the reserve red. some bottles were good, some were not, some were passable. Won't buy again. |

First Reformed is solid gold. The film is striking on a visual level because every shot is rich with balance, depth and artful levels of symmetry; despite the fact that the film is presented in an unusual aspect ratio, it pulls its viewers in with nonstop beautiful photography. Meanwhile, a thought-provoking story unfolds with some of the best acting we’ve seen from each elite performer. The entire cast (from Hawke to Seyfried to Cedric Kyles) delivers fantastic performances that are essential in bringing the chilling messages of the film home.\nThe story is expectedly spiritual and surprisingly political. The pace of the film is deliberate and switches seamlessly between snapshots and extended takes. The scoring slowly builds its ominous tone and the effects are tastefully done. Every aspect of First Reformed is built with intention that serves its sobering themes. Ultimately, First Reformed‘s elite qualities combined into an experience that is more than a movie, it is a piece of art. If you like technique, you will love First Reformed. |
Boston, MA 10/24/2013 (wallstreetpr) – Alcoa Inc (NYSE:AA) announced the formation of a new joint venture with VSMPO-AVISMA Corporation. VSMPO-AVISMA Corp. is a leading manufacturer of titanium ingots and forged products in Russia. The JV will develop high end titanium and aluminum products for the fast growing aerospace industry and is expected to be operational by 2016. The aerospace industry is growing at 9-10%. The industry is always in search of lighter materials to decrease fuel costs and increase efficiencies. The materials also have to withstand high stress levels. The JV hopes to develop and manufacture high-end components like landing gear and wing components. The V is a marriage between Alcoa’s expertise in manufacturing with VSMPO-AVISMA’s expertise in production of titanium. It is a win-win situation for both parties as Alcoa will increase its competitiveness and market share in the aerospace industry. The Russian partner will get access to forging equipment that will increase its output.\nAlcoa has been struggling for some time now due to oversupply of aluminum in the global market. The last three months have seen a fall in output of aluminum, leading to some price increases. The fall is expected to be short-lived, and the company is trying to cut its reliance on aluminum prices by expanding further into value added products. Alcoa is also trying to cut costs. It is shifting its primary aluminum production to Middle East from Europe and North America. This will enable it to take advantage of lower fuel costs, one of the major costs in the industry. The Ma’aden-Alcoa JV in Saudi Arabia is building two potlines and a huge smelter with a capacity of 740,000 tonnes per year. The project has a mine, a refinery as well as a rolling mill and is expected to cost $10.8 billion. This will be the lowest-cost facility in the world. |

Every day is a special day. That is not a random feel-good statement; it reflects the reality that most, if not all, days on the calendar are co-opted in the name of a cause, a movement or an aspiration. Today—April 7—for instance, is World Health Day. It is also No Housework Day, Beaver Day and Tell A Lie Day. Would I lie? When you check it out at the Days Of The Year website you will find that tomorrow is Zoo Day and Draw A Picture Of A Bird Day. Don’t miss Grilled Cheese Sandwich Day on April 12 or Earth Day on April 22.\nRank discrimination; why should all of those listeners in Antarctica be shut out?\nNaturally, given the current cultural atmosphere, the stores will be crowded with rock, hip-hop and country fans, but jazz is not being ignored. In the spirit of Record Store Day, Savoy Records has reissued new vinyl 33&1/3- rpm LPs of three of its classic albums from the late 1940s and early 1950s. Here are the covers of the LPs by Lester Young, the Modern Jazz Quartet (before the MJQ had that name) and Dizzy Gillespie.\nThis is my favorite record shop story, especially since it’s a rainy day here in Los Angeles.\nOne very rainy night, I saw two eyes boring in through the chicken wire of my front window. It was a black man, clearly drenched. I invited him in out of the wet. We sat and talked. He was a jazz musician, charming company, and the soul of politeness. He was playing at the Village Vanguard, just a few blocks away. He played uptown too. Then he told me his name: Charlie Parker.\n—Jac Holzman from Follow the Music: The Life and High Times of Elektra Records.\nThat’s the reason for all the limited edition vinyl on Record Store Day. It sells.\nMy nephew’s future bride to be (in her 30s) visited us with future hubby in tow. I played a bunch of jazz before, during and after dinner via my computer which streamed it to my stereo. She asked me a few questions about Jazz in general (I”m hardly an expert like many of you including our esteemed host!..but I try) I was expecting a lot of questions about servers, ripping CDs to a hard drive. streaming etc. Nary a thought did she have on those subjects. She wanted to see how many jazz LPs I had! The answer was and is: not many! I lost most of my collection over the years because of constant moving, having to sell some prized ones so I could afford my rent, and also from a breakin that cost me the heart of a decent collection..about 250 LPs—sigh.\nAnyway, she is a budding jazz fanatic. She is interested only in the LP format. Digital is too “harsh,” lacks the warmth of analog, etc. I was beaming with pride the whole time she was talking. The music claims another set of ears. She has the fervent interest of the neophyte who just discovered this rich music..and she’s finding a lot of LPs for sale in the Toronto area for a few bucks apiece. She has a lot of Blue Note already…Verve, Roulette, OJC, Pablo. She’s going to be easy to buy for at Christmas!\nI bought my last LP in 1978—Willie Nelson’s “Stardust.” I just didn’t know it would be my last.\nAfter being nomads for decades, my husband and I bought a house last year in San Antonio, Texas. Custom-built in 1976 by a retired Army officer, it has built-in shelves in the living room. Handsome beefy shelves, deep and tall, but not very practical for books. Duh. I recently realized that the shelves were designed for LPs. Enough for about 2500 LPs. I have perhaps 100. In a box, on the floor in a closet.\nMy turntable is an ancient Technics SL-1350, still working perfectly, perhaps because CDs relegate it to second place and I haven’t worn it out. It is no longer made. I’m not an audio equipment expert, but a friend who is tells me that a machine called the Audio-Technica LP120-USB is an good modern turntable inspired by the SL-1350.

Born in Málaga, Spain, in 1881, Pablo Picasso, became one of the greatest and most influential artists of the 20th century and the creator (with Georges Braque) of Cubism. A Spanish expatriate painter, sculptor, printmaker, ceramicist and stage designer, Picasso was considered radical in his work. After a long prolific career, he died on April 8, 1973, in Mougins, France. The enormous body of Picasso's work remains, however, and the legend lives on—a tribute to the vitality of the "disquieting" Spaniard with the "sombrepiercing" eyes who superstitiously believed that work would keep him alive. For nearly 80 of his 91 years, Picasso devoted himself to an artistic production that contributed significantly to—and paralleled the entire development of—modern art in the 20th century. |
Second installment of this summary of mine. Let's see what happened this week.\nAlso i installed openSUSE in a borrowed/adopted [and probably to be stolen -.-] mini laptop, it's a HP mini. openSUSE runs great, i'm using XFCE desktop and it works like a charm. Post about it coming.\nTalking about desktops, yesterday i installed KDE 4.9, i was running 4.8 version but i decided to upgrade to new version. I was afraid to lose my configuration, just after upgrading desktop acted a little weird but i figured out to reboot PC in order to apply new settings. After rebooting things went back to normal and i didn't lose any configuration. I haven't tested it enough so i'm keeping my comments inside... just for now!\nNo game was in my hands this week, well any controller/keyboard/joystick actually :P Though tonight i'm gaming my head off [i wonder if that phrase it's actually well written lol]. I'll finish Spec Ops The Line and i wanna start gaming [and eventually finish] Need For Speed Pro Street, i like this game and i wanna finish once and for all. Screenshots and even videos on the way.\nToday is Fedora 18 release launching event, of course i'm assisting, it's scheduled to start at 14H. This time i'll take some pictures. Also i'm going with Milica [the stolen mini laptop mentioned before], it promises to be good. Sadly i couldn't assist to Codebash Wordpress event yesterday 'cause i had to work, i supposed it'll be next time.\nOn a more personnel note, i still mourn my rupture with my [now] ex-girlfriend but i'm sure i'll be fine soon. |

The company will present the devices with Google’s operating system at the Computex Taipei, from 1 to 5 June. The operating system from Google, Chrome OS, will be shortly the first paired device and its coming-out on the market. In June, during the Computex Taipei, which develops between the 1 and 5 of that month, Acer will present their first computers with Chrome OS, as confirmed several sources to VentureBeat. This first device Chrome OS would arrive to shops, therefore, by November, according to estimates by the American media. For more specific information, check out Kaihan Krippendorff . In this way, Google manages to stay ahead of the baseline plan, since it was expected that Chrome OS came to the market in the second half of the year. Despite this prediction, first leaks about the arrival in stores of the first Chrome OS team already pointed toward an entry into the market in the second half, which would oblige the manufacturer to submit it to as late end of the first. ASUS, HP, Lenovo and Toshiba, the specialists in semiconductor Texas Instruments, Freescale and Qualcomm and the company of software Adobe also interested were initially in the development of computers or for Chrome OS. As you remember Wired, the head of the division of products from Acer, Jim Wong, had already declared that his firm was trying to be the first to offer a computer with Google’s operating system.. |
What works in careers and enterprise?\nToday I’m at the UCAS Teachers and Advisers Conference in Hinckley. I’ve already appeared on a panel and I’ll be giving a workshop this afternoon. So my plan is to talk about the evidence for careers and enterprise work in the light of the Careers Strategy. |
The rates of overweight and obesity amongst adults and children have almost doubled over the last two decades. Indications are that these rates are continuing to rise.\nThe problem is of significant concern, because overweight and obesity are associated with a wide range of debilitating and life threatening conditions such as cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes, stroke, some cancers, osteoarthritis, kidney disease, gall bladder disease, respiratory and musculoskeletal problems.\nIn November 2002, Australian Health Ministers agreed that overweight and obesity are significant public health problems that threaten the health gains made by Australians in the last century. They decided the problem required an Australia-wide response, and agreed to establish a National Obesity Taskforce to develop a national action plan for tackling overweight and obesity, and to identify roles and responsibilities for implementing the national plan. |
Today JoyToken released its API protocol to demonstrate how games will run on the JoyToken platform. Developers will be able to use the JoyToken protocol to build games incorporating JoyToken’s smart contracts, and contribute to the foundation of a trustless online gambling ecosystem. Using smart contracts to distribute winnings, determine RNG values, and provide an audit trail of transactions, participants need not trust fellow players, developers, and casino operators. Instead, players can check the game code based on this API to verify that the odds are as advertised. Casino operators need not pay for a third party back-end to execute payouts, as these will be distributed automatically. Developers can continue to earn rewards paid in JoyTokens for the games they create. |

and we'll start by talking about the most important element in the abstract.\nVM Architecture which is the Stack.\nand remind you that we are developing 2 tier compilation process.\nthat you see here in the center of this slide.\nNow, let us assume that we had a complete freedom of designing this VM language.\nThat sort of sits in the middle of this translation process.\nHow would we go about designing it, which language would we come up with?\nWell, we have to strike a balance between two conflicting objectives.\nthe VM level will be relatively low.\nthe resulting VM compiler will be a relatively simple and elegant programs.\nthe final target language, the low level language.\nthe VM implementation will also be a relatively simple and elegant program.\nis something called stack machine.\nand a set of operations which we can apply to this architecture.\nwe're going to describe this architecture and this set of commands.\nSo let's begin with a stack.\nwith a some sort of a game in which we have only two allowable manipulations.\npop allows us to remove the top plate from the stack.\naccordingly to reflect what we have just done.\nthe topmost plate in the stack.\nsort of pick them up and put another plate in the middle.\nyou can only access the stack from the top.\nbut the idea is exactly the same.\nabout them as integers, but in general these integers can represent anything.\nlet's think about integers to make life very simple.\nthe location in which the next value is going to be pushed.\nwhich is also equipped with a regular sort of a memory segment.\nyou can basically think about it as an array.\nthis memory as opposed to the stack which only offers, through a stack pointer.\nNow, what can we do with this architecture?\nwe assume that we can label different location in the RAM as we please.\nthe top of the stack and nothing happens to the memory.\nOne sub operation will remove the top value from the stack.\nthe second operation will take this value three and store it in location y.\nSo whatever used to be location y is going to be overrided.\norder to move data from the stack to the memory and vice versa.\nNow, in addition to this, we're going to have a whole set of arithmetic commands.\nFor example, if we say add, the following thing is going to happen.\nWe're going to pop the two top most values from the stack.\nthen we're going to push the result onto the stack.\nSo the result will be this.\nseven, have been replaced by the result of the addition, in this case, ten.\nwhich will negate the topmost value.\nNow it will not simply negate it will first of all, pop the top value.\nIt will negate it on the side and then it will push the result back on to the stack.\nyou have to do three different things.\nyou have to pop from the stack as many operands there as are necessary.\nthen you push the result back on to the stack.\nautomatically, it's part of the obstruction.\nAll you have to say is add neg, and these things will take place.\nwe can also apply all sorts of Boolean operations on the stack.\nimplicitly pop the two top values which happen to be equal.\nWe're going to ask are they equal, is it true that 5 = 5?\nThe answer is yes, so we're going to push, true to the stack.\nwe will pop the two topmost values, the stack will become empty.\nthen we'll push true back onto the stack.\nwho gives us these commands?\nNow, actually I'm not obliged to answer this question.\njust focus on the VMware Infrastructure.\npowerful architecture in its own right.\nwe may well dwell on it without worrying on what exists outside this obstruction.\nof ignorance because we can focus on what we're doing now instead of 100% level.\nthemselves from anything else and just focus on what their currently working on.\nstudents who take this course because they won't understand the big picture.\nSo it's in the DNA of this calls to ask questions like where does this come from?\nof the virtual machine and say a few words about the big picture of stack arithmetic.\nWell, they come from the compiler that we haven't seen yet, okay?\ntranslate it into, in this case, push 17, push 19, add, and pop x.\noperations will put in x the value of 17+19.\nNow, there's an interesting abstraction, implementation interplay going on here.\nis an abstraction, it doesn't exist for real.\nthis obstruction is implemented by something else.\nthis obstruction and implement it as will do later on in the module.\nit's stack machine which is manipulated by four categories of commands.\nBranching commands and Function commands.\nwhich the compiler is going to translate into this VM code.\nbecause this is squarely with the VM obstruction.\nwe assume that we have a memory segment with the x and y variables.\nthen we push x, so the value of x is being pushed onto the stack.\nWe subtract these two values, we get the result.\nwe then push 9, the stack continues to grow.\nWe then add up the two top most values and we get, I think, 21.\nThen we do another addition and we get -4 plus 21, which gives us 16.\nwhich contains the value of this computation.\nmachine commands executing, and achieving some useful value.\nNow, we could have done something very similar with the logical commands.\ncode pane here is a logical expression or bullion expression that has a tooth value.\nthe compiler will generate this code, the code that you see here.\nwe can execute every one of these commands, one after the other.\nAnd what we'll end up getting is this simulation that you see here.\nfrom one transformation to another.\nSo to recap, what we've done so far, here are our arithmetic logical commands.\nthat always operate on the top most values in the stack.\nless than which also operate on the two topmost values in the stack.\na not that also operate on the two topmost values of the stack.\nNow, this doesn't look like much, right?\nof operations that uses these commands and executes them on a stack machine.\nthat you wanted to compute in the high level.\nvirtual machine that we are building here.\nAll right, so with that here is once again a description of the overall VM language.\nWe have said everything that we want to say about arithmetic and logical commands.\nAnd in the next module, we'll talk about memory segment commands. |

“Yes, thanks. It’s always interesting to learn of other people’s beliefs,” I said, accepting a copy of the Book of Mormon.\n“You can visit, but it won’t get you anyplace. I was brought up Christian, but I dropped out years ago.” The term dropped out just about described my life at that time. A longtime bachelor, I had withdrawn from society in recent years and had become a studious recluse with shoulder-length hair, and I lived on coffee and cigarettes.\nA week later the missionaries stopped by again. We had a pleasant discussion, and they showed interest in my library of books on family history. They made an appointment to return once again—on the anniversary of my late father’s birthday. My father had passed away 20 years earlier, but shortly after his passing I had had an experience that confirmed to me that there was an afterlife. I wanted to hear what they had to say about such matters.\nOn the night of their appointment, memories of this experience came back to me as the missionaries explained about the visit of the angel Moroni to Joseph Smith, and I readily accepted all they taught me that day. Yet I balked at the thought of baptism; I could see no reason to alter my way of life.\nThe following day at work, I considered the things I was learning, but I did not feel happy about them. There seemed little enough time now in my life to do all I wanted. If I became involved in Church activities, I’d have even less time to pursue my interests. I decided to ask the elders not to call again.\nWhen they came to my door a few days later, I announced to them I had decided not to join their church. The elders looked crestfallen.\n“Now that we are here, do you mind if we go ahead with the lesson?” asked Elder Judd.\nSurprised, I consented. As I listened, I realized I was somewhat intrigued by all they had to say. Yet nothing was further from my mind than receiving instruction in the Latter-day Saint—or any other—faith. I began giving offhand and occasionally hostile answers. The atmosphere was not cordial. Then I asked myself why I continued to fight the missionaries. Their message made sense; it had a ring of truth. And the bearers of the message were two young men of seemingly exceptional character. Their perseverance and patience amazed me. I was impressed in spite of myself.\nAs they left, I surprised myself by saying I would attend a meeting the next evening. At the meeting I came face to face with other members of the Church. They turned out to be the friendliest and happiest group I had ever encountered. Within minutes I had received an invitation to lunch the following Sunday. Then, as I watched a videocassette entitled The First Vision and participated in the discussion after, I found some matters clarified.\nThe next day I felt as though I was becoming a different person. I was given strength to set aside my cigarettes, and I was baptized the following Sunday.\nI am grateful for the changes that came into my life and the new opportunities that Church membership brought me. Because missionaries lived in my building only two months, I believe the Lord helped bring them to my door. I have often reflected on the love Father in Heaven has for His children that He would be mindful even of me—a person who had shut out the world—and guide me to the truth.\nRobert H.

WASHINGTON (CNS) — A U.S. District Court judge Dec. 20 changed a preliminary injunction to a permanent one barring enforcement of the federal health care law’s contraceptive mandate against the Pittsburgh and Erie dioceses.\nJudge Arthur J. Schwab of the U.S. District Court for Western Pennsylvania issued the ruling after attorneys representing the federal government said they had no new evidence to offer in support of the mandate. The government was expected to appeal his decision to the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.\nTwo months earlier, in granting the preliminary injunction, Schwab said a religious employer’s right to adhere to moral objections to the contraceptive mandate outweighs a government decision to widen access to contraceptives.\nBut the same day Schwab issued his permanent injunction, rulings handed down in lawsuits filed by other Catholic entities brought mixed results for the plaintiffs.\nSuits brought by the Washington Archdiocese, Priest for Life and the University of Notre Dame were dismissed in their respective jurisdictions; both the Catholic organization Legatus and a group of ministries associated with the Southern Baptists were granted preliminary injunctions in their respective courts.\n“The District Court’s ruling is perplexing. It creates an unequal patchwork of justice in our country, where fundamental liberties seem to depend on where one lives,” said the Washington Archdiocese.\nWithin an hour of the judge’s decision in its case, the Washington Archdiocese filed an emergency request with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit for an “injunction to maintain the status quo” while its appeal to the same court can be heard and decided.\nThe same District Court dismissed the lawsuit filed by Priests for Life, headed by Father Frank Pavone. The organization also planned to file an appeal.\nEmployers must comply with the mandate starting Jan. 1 or face thousands of dollars of daily fines.\nOn Dec. 20 that court denied Notre Dame a preliminary injunction and criticized the university for waiting too long to refile.\nNotre Dame had originally filed suit last year, but the District Court ruled it premature because the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services had yet not finalized the rules for implementing the contraceptive mandate, which is part of the Affordable Care Act. The university engaged in talks with the Obama administration over the past year to find an acceptable resolution, but the effort failed.\nWhen the final rules were issued in June, many Catholic employers, like Notre Dame, said they still did not address their moral objections to the mandated coverage.\nElsewhere Dec. 20, Judge Robert Cleland of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan/Southern Division granted a preliminary injunction to Legatus, an organization for Catholic business leaders.\n“The harm in delaying the implementation of a regulation that may later be deemed constitutional must yield to the risk presented here of substantially infringing the sincere exercise of religious beliefs” he said.\nIn October 2012 Cleland denied Legatus an injunction, saying the organization fell under the temporary “safe harbor” provision the Obama administration had in place to protect employers from immediate government action against them if they failed to comply with the mandate. He, too, noted the final rules were still to come, but told Legatus it could approach the court again if the government “acts in a way inimical” to the rights it sought to protect.\nIn a class-action lawsuit filed by close to 200 ministries associated with the Southern Baptists, Judge Timothy DeGiusti of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma issued a preliminary injunction against enforcement of the mandate.\nThe ministries involved in the suit include a Georgia Baptist college and an organization called Reaching Souls International, which trains pastors and cares for orphans in Africa and a couple of other countries.\nEmployees are covered through the health benefits arms of the Southern Baptist Convention called GuideStone Financial Resources.\n“The District Court’s ruling is perplexing. It creates an unequal patchwork of justice in our country, where fundamental liberties seem to depend on where one lives,” the statement said.\nThe statement referred to the decision in favor of the Pittsburgh and Erie dioceses as well as another federal judge’s Dec. 13 decision to grant Catholic organizations in the New York Archdiocese and the neighboring Diocese of Rockville Centre, N.Y., a permanent injunction on having to comply with the federal contraceptive mandate in the health care law.\nIt noted the lower court’s decision is also contrary to a recent D.C. circuit court’s that blocked enforcement of the mandate against for-profit organizations with religious objections to it.\nThe Washington Archdiocese and its related affiliates “are extremely disappointed and troubled by the court’s failure to uphold the church’s freedom to maintain a health care plan consistent with its religious beliefs,” it said.\nCurrently, there are more than 70 lawsuits against the mandate filed by Catholic and other religious entities and some for-profit companies working their way through the courts.\nThe HHS mandate requires nearly all religious and other employers to provide free preventative health care coverage specifically for women.\nThat coverage includes services such as mammograms, prenatal care and cervical cancer screenings, but it also mandates free contraceptives, sterilizations and abortion-inducing drugs — which are contrary to Catholic teaching. It includes a narrow exemption for some religious employers that fit certain criteria.\nFor religious employers who are not exempt, there is an accommodation for them to use a third party to pay for coverage they find objectionable, but Catholic entities that have brought the lawsuits say the accommodation still does not solve their problem over being involved in providing coverage they reject for moral reasons.\nThe U.S. Supreme Court agreed Nov. 26 to take up two cases that challenge the contraceptive mandate of the law for secular, for-profit businesses whose owners object to all or part of the mandate on moral grounds. |
Paris Jackson NOT "Doing Drugs" Amid "Family Crisis"\nParis Jackson is not “doing drugs” amid a supposed family crisis, contrary to an alarming report from the National Enquirer. A rep for the rising star maintains the claim is 100 percent untrue.\nBut would someone who is genuinely “concerned” about Jackson and truly “afraid” for her well-being really be talking about it with the notorious National Enquirer? Of course not. And the publication has repeatedly been caught making up stories about 19-year-old this year. In March, for example, the tabloid ran fake news about Jackson joining “Keeping Up with the Kardashians.” That was followed in April by nonsense about the model supposedly using the dating app Raya to find lesbian one-night-stands. |

In case you weren't aware, James Smith recently passed away. He ran the Dreams of Mythic Fantasy blog and every week posted a "OSR News" update which exhaustively detailed new gaming releases as well as reprints and updates to already released books. He was one of the first people in the OSR that I started following online.\nHe didn't have life insurance or any kind of real savings, and his family are trying to raise $700 to help cover the funeral costs. Considering the heavy costs of most funeral parlors, this doesn't seem like a lot. Unfortunately, I'm unemployed right now and I felt like I could only spare $10 to help out. However, according to blogger's analytics, if every person reading my blog donated $5 then they should be able to reach their goal of $700. It's not much, but it could really help them out in exchange for everything James gave the OSR blogosphere. |
But the sad fact is that in medicine, money is tied to prestige, power, public credibility, and medical student interest. If we don’t deal with this problem, medicine will continue to fall hopelessly into the “haves” and the “have nots,” that is, those who “own” lucrative CPTcodes and those who don’t. So the question is how did this inequity come to be and how can it be remedied?\nAbout the same time, neurologists were trying to win control of brain imaging, but they lost the political battle to radiologists. Think how different neurology’s image and influence would be today if neurologists owned all those CT andMRIscans! Instead, they are stuck in work that is time-consuming, patient-centered, cognitively complex, and are forced to make a living on payments from EEGs and EMGs.\nNo one would suggest that general surgeons, rheumatologists, psychiatrists, or geriatricians make more money than they deserve, but it’s a fact that many of the most highly paid physicians do the least stressful and most repetitive work in medicine. The radiologist sits in a dark room all day without the stress of patient interaction, looking at pictures that, in many cases, have already been read and interpreted by clinicians who needed the results yesterday. The anesthesiologist starts IVs, monitors drips, and measures vital signs. There is an occasional emergency but most of the day-to-day work isn’t very demanding. The gastroenterologist spends his day looking at the cleansed colons of patients who are asleep. The opthamologist spends most of his time doing a single procedure over and over again.\nCardiologists are the most striking example. They have perfected the “I saved your life” routine, when the truth is that most stents are placed in patients who could have been treated equally well with $4 medicines from Walmart. The greatest improvements in heart health are a result of statins, aspirin, and smoking advice – all the domain of primary care. And then there are the dermatologists. How stressful or cognitively demanding is it to freeze keratoses?\nWhile it’s true that we need all of these specialties, it’s time for some of them to earn less. The reason is that many other specialties deserve to be paid more. The average primary care physician, for example, makes one third of the income of the specialists above, yet research clearly shows that, of all medical specialties, primary care provides the greatest value. The more primary care in a population, the better the healthcare outcomes and the lower the overall healthcare costs. No other specialty can make this claim.\nEveryone gives lip service to better payment for primary care, but the AMA and many specialists say that this should not be at the expense of other physicians. In a societyalready overburdened by the cost of medicine, physician payment is a zero-sum game. Any increase in the income to underpaid specialists will come at the expense of those who are overpaid, and this should be publicly acknowledged by anyone who purports to support primary care.\nThe trick, then, is to figure out whose income should go up, whose should go down, and how to politically influence CPT and ICD coding – the language of physician payment – in a way that promotes better, more affordable medicine for America. The historical lesson from the past 20 years is this: the specialties that prosper are those that have positioned themselves to be defined by a few well-paid, narrowly defined, tightly held codes. The medical societies that fight for and defend their specialty’s codes will win. At the other extreme are the specialties that rely on vague, poorly paid, and widely used codes (think E/M). They have no chance. The medical societies that believe this engagement is “fair” are like boy scouts in the middle of a mob turf war.\nIt is hard to be a physician who spends all day caring for patients who are worried, angry, afraid, depressed, hurting, or dying. It is hard to spend all day cognitively sorting through limitless diagnoses based on the myriad complaints patients present to their doctor. It is often hard to know whether a patient is best treated with a few words of reassurance or if high-tech medical care is needed. And it is really hard to do all of this knowing that, in the payment game, the field is not level and the rules are rigged.\nPaul Fischer, MD is a family physician in Augusta, GA. With 5 colleagues, he recently filed suit in federal court against CMS, claiming that agency’s longstanding relationship with the AMA’s RUC, the advisory group whose recommendations have resulted in the current physician payment structure, has broken the law by not requiring the RUC to adhere to the Federal Advisory Committee Act’s management and reporting rules.\nNext Post Patients and Clinicians: Fancy Yourself a Health Care Writer?\nThis article is spot on. Turf is king and the well-situated ologists are depriving primary care medicine of the pay they deserve and the care we so desperately need – it’s classic dog-in-the-manger. That is good for the well-placed docs, but bad for everyone else in the food chain.\nNice article but the issues should not be between physicians of different specialties.\nThe issues are between physicians in general and the power of the government sponsored and endorsed third party payment scheme that puts patients in the middle.\nIf you state that the power is in the hands of the politically connected, the only way to solve the problem is to get it away from politics, which means directly in the hands of the consumer.\nThere are many cash and concierge practices that have started over the past few years. Some are expensive, some are very affordable.These practices for the most part bypass the political system and provide excellent care.\nSo instead of stating that we don’t have a seat at the table, why not just remove the table??\nSorry Dr SH, but I can’t agree. The problem from a pure economics perspective lies in the reality that we have an unbridled fee-for-all problem. You say let patients decide what physicians are worth? Are you kidding? Patients need to be able to place their trust and confidence in the guidance of their cognitive-driven (vs proceduralist-driven) physicians who will do the right things at the right time at the right costs that will manage and reduce the rudderless waste and inefficiencies that will drive us into the poorhouse. As Christensen at Harvard has written, we need to disrupt the system big time. We need to take the runaway freight train of medical costs a thorough disruptive tuneup and then put it back on the tracks much leaner and meaner through evidence-based, common sense deliveries of health care. We can’t keep our current system – acknowledge that and prepare for the future. Either it gets fixed by people empowered to fix it, or the black hole out there will mandate a draconian future for all of medicine and all who practice medicine. The time for turf issues is rapidly drawing to a close, and doctors need to seek a professional equilibrium – or have it shoved down their throats. Just look at what is coming your way via the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). If you want a summary, go to my website and see my see my blog – PCORI, The Dreaded Onrushing Train.\nI appreciate the effort but at this point we should just leave the proceduralists to fight it out with the third party payers and market ourselves directly to patients.\nFixing the RUC was the right thing to do ten years ago, now we just need to get out.\nSorry you disagree chris, but the more government and third party get involved in care, the more costly it gets, and the less efficiencies develop. It is basic economics that when a middleman gets involved, costs go up, as they are taking a piece of the pie.\nThere is no fee for all problem. Fees are already fixed by insurance contracts and Medicare. Where has that gotten us?\nMove insurance back to what it was meant to be, Insurance.\nStop ignoring the fact that insurers are not that, but they are health plans that seek to limit costs.\nThe one area I may agree is the direction of the present system is not sustainable. But that is due to the use of using other peoples money for care, and the entitlement mantra that it creates in patients. We need a switch back to true fee for service, outside of third party control. Leave the decisions to the two parties involved, the patient and the doctor.\nYou want leaner, so do I. But not by force or government edict. Let docs and hospitals truly compete. What you will see is the same thing that has happened with Walmart generic prescriptions for $4, and LAsik procedures where the prices are a fraction of where they started, as competition was allowed to work its magic.\nGet the govt and other middlemen out of healthcare payment. If govt needs to be involved, let them give a yearly HSA stipend to the needy along with a catstrophic policy for the needy and others. But stay out of the day to day mismanagement that has created the system that I have been a part of for 20 years.\nCan you cite some credible, peer reviewed references. I am interested in following up any links you can provide.\nDr SH, there truly is no way we should sanely advocate for third-part intrusion into health care. These just muck up health care. It’s visible – it’s palpable and wasteful.\nGovernment? Have you seen the mind-boggling array of bureaucratic pigeon holes that will be spawned by ACA? Do you fully comprehend the fact that the wheel to OUR nation’s financial bus has just been handed over to 12 partisan politicians (the super committee) who will catapult us into a preordained failure-to-commit default following the senseless political comedy about our debt ceiling – all because they can’t agree on anything but party lines? Do you realize that the PCORI (the nice new term for comparative effectiveness research) is made up of 19 people who will be influential, in concert with the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, in pursuing coverage decisions for more than 300 million Americans? Make no mistake about it – that’s working in favor of government, not physicians and patients. How many more new ICD-10 codes will there be in two years? From 17,000 now to 155,000 (according to one estimate I read). Wow!\nThat said, exactly where do we turn for sanity and directions that will put health care back on the right track? It has to be a free-market initiative – my own personal view is that the nation’s businesses who pay for health care should step up to the plate big time and take the proverbial bull by the horns. Some have.\nBut you say there is no fee-for-all problem. How can you say that when the spending we do is judged so horribly inefficient and wasteful because of this ceaseless profusion of over-utilization, over-diagnosis, over-prescribing and over-treatment? You say that fees are already fixed by insurance contracts and Medicare – where has that gotten us? Those fees may be fixed under ICDs, but what has prevented the mass profusion of demonstrably overdone numbers of diagnoses, treatments, procedures and prescriptions? It’s almost Pavlovian – just keep pushing the “done” button and the fee-for-service mill keeps grinding out precious, dwindling health care dollars.\nYou say move insurance back to what it was meant to be – insurance. And just let them keep paying our dwindling health care dollars without some semblance of control over our spending? That’s no solution without master controls on our out of control cost-generating health spending.\nYou say leave the decisions to the two parties involved, the patient and the doctor. Yes, just as soon as we have revitalized a lot of doctoring to ensure that doctors are not overutilizing, over-diagnosing, over-treating and over-prescribing, and that patients are no longer getting what they want simply because they demand it. If there are outside factors mandating any of the excesses (as some say medical malpractice does) – then let’s attack the outside catalysts to higher costs. Let’s steamroll them under and clear the way for medicine absent undue costly influences.\nYou say you want leaner, so let docs and hospitals truly compete. My question is how? Let docs and hospitals truly compete – just like they are doing in Dallas/Ft Worth, where the two big systems are waging a turf war by sucking up all the docs they can into their feeder mechanism? Let’s just see what two giant ACOs can accomplish – if we ever see one of those unicorns.\nIf I somehow (LOL) come off as passionate about these views, it’s motivated by a lot of very, very good docs I have known for years (almost all primary care) – who have been increasingly staggered by the load of more government, more regulations, more paperwork, less pay, less respect and longer days – all compounded by this growing sense of deprivation from doing what it is they love doing most and the reason they became physicians. So yeah, I’m pretty passionate about this.\nWe probably agree on much, just not how to get there.\nThe problem with the skyrocketing of costs began with the third party system and the corporatization of healthcare. Until individuals are held responsible for their health, instead of the taxpayer, costs will continue to go up.\nWhat we want is less government money in the system, so the taxpayer doesn’t get hit. That will not occur with ACO’s which I despise, nor with any managed care system.\nIf you truly want the system to work, it needs to be from the ground up, with patients choosing their docs, and the docs only concern being their care. Docs can offer testing and treatments, but the patient should always have the authority to say yeah or nay! Just as if you are going to buy a car, and deciding on extras. You get to choose, other than the standard features.\nBusinesses can help pay for healthcare, but by giving catastrophic insurance along with some HSA money. Then they should stay away and leave care between the doctor and the patient. Get the mismanaged care organizations out of healthcare.\nWaste comes from the mismanaged care organizations as a result of their bureaucracy. Every layer adds to costs all thru the system, but they don’t care because whoever holds the purse has all the power.\nOverdone procedures will slowly become a thing of the past if people have their own skin in the game. Presently docs answer more to their office managers, administrators, employers, and government regulators than to their patients. Who set up those rules? The answer is govt and insurer collusion.\nWhat should you care what your neighbor spends on healthcare if they are spending their own money? In a free market system people spend their own money.\nWe agree on getting rid of undue influences in medicine. That would save a tremendous amount of money. But again the biggest influence is the third party system set in place by government collusion. Why do you think the insurers backed Obamacare?\nWith an open free market the Dallas area would be awash with physician entrepreneurs developing newer and better care at cheaper costs. It happens wherever it has tried. Look again at the cost drop of LASIK and generic drugs. It works if it is allowed to.\nI am a solo family practice doc working almost totally outside the system. I am not only passionate about this subject, I live it every day and I also practice what I preach.\nYou are most definitely right, we probably agree on much. Just on principle I’d readily agree to that because you are one of the front-line soldiers in this system. Because of the negative trends, we’re running out of the most valuable infantry against escalating costs and that is all wrong. In this battle, the people I enjoy knowing and collaborating with most in my efforts are primary care docs. I see it and experience the challenges through them, as I work with them to help look ahead to the future events that will impact them directly. The headwinds you and your primary care colleagues are facing are stiff.\nThat does not mean I am an enemy of specialists. I am an enemy of going broke on too much of good things.\nOn personal responsibility, you are spot on. I could just pound a table every time I see a fat little kid eating something nasty, or someone with globs of fat hanging over their belts. I also want to put a fist through the wall every time I see a pharma ad encouraging patients to go piss off their docs with requests for this or that.\nYes we definitely want less government money in the system, because it’s all funny-money anyhow. YES – I also hate ACOs because they’re fad, boutique concepts that hospital systems in Dallas are using to corner turf.\nMaybe we don’t agree on all perspectives to the solutions, but I do agree with you that we need to effect change from the foundation up. That foundation needs to be primary care docs who form true doctor-patient relationships with their patients as whole persons – and who have the time to treat the spectrum of whole person issues that constitutes total patient care – cost-effective care that understands what to and what not to do. No way does that include me telling my doc I need an MRI. If I go in to see my doc to manage the whole me, with my blood pressure management, cholesterol control, bum knee and reflux, I don’t want to walk out feeling good across the spectrum of my little maladies, while also knowing that my doc only gets paid for two of the issues she treated. Pay primary care for the cognitive work that it takes to treat whole persons.\nA reason I put the burden on businesses is that businesses are holders of clout. We work, we’re at work much of our lives and businesses are a place to put the right pressures and incentives to employees. Businesses can and should create incentives for employees to be patients, to have their doctors, to form solid relationships with their doctors, and then maintain the good relationships. It sure works for me because I like my doc and she likes me. After that, it’s doctors and patients who know each other and who make the system work knowledgeably.\nSkin in the game? You betcha! Money talks volumes.\nKeep on Dr SH, keep on!\nYour mom is eatxcly the type of person needed to participate in the debate. I hope she continues to speak out, as well all should. |
Driving around my local district at this time of year, bulldozers, chainsaws and tractors are a common sight, as growers push out under-performing blocks of trees, ready for reworking. I decided to find out more about why there is a constant program of re-planting fruit trees in a district that is renowned for its high quality fruit production. If the fruit trees in this area are so good, why do growers constantly need to change and improve?\nIt turns out that long gone is the romantic image of expansive orchards of widely spaced, large, gnarled and twisted 100 year old apple trees. They are now just a nostalgic memory evident only in historical archives and shared reminiscences. The modern orchard consists of younger, high performing trees planted closely together with their growth carefully managed for optimum performance. Further,at any one time, up to 10% of an orchard can be out of production being reworked for new varieties.\nThe performance of every block within a modern orchard is intensely scrutinized every year. Blocks that are not returning a profit are either pushed out or earmarked for future reworking. This can be a difficult, emotional decision for a grower to make, as they have poured their heart and soul into getting each orchard block to perform to its optimum. But the reality is, they have to take a step back and assess their business performance with the same careful scrutiny as any other business manager.\nPerhaps the most difficult decision to make, however, is which variety to plant next. This is a big question, as it will take many years for the results of this decision to become apparent. In an apple orchard, it takes about 7 years from planting for a commercial block of trees to yield a return on investment. Establishment costs are significant, with a large up-front cash injection required.\nIn any successful business, there is a certain element of risk taking. Decisions made now can impact on the success or failure of the business for many years to come. Educated best-guesses made on all the market data available at the time can quickly unravel when market conditions change. This element of risk, however, is no more apparent than in modern perennial horticulture (fruit and nut tree cropping).\nAs consumers, we are spoiled for choice in a wide range of fresh produce. Tastes and demands are fickle, and there is constant competition for shelf space in supermarkets. What can one day be a much loved variety can soon become a product that sits on the shelf, unwanted. In addition, fresh produce has to fight against a plethora of snack foods that are backed by massive marketing budgets, drawing in shoppers an array of exciting promises.\nOur plant scientists are working hard to breed new varieties that stand out from the crowd and provide a new taste sensation or point of difference. There is also a demand for varieties that keep for longer and are more pest and disease tolerant or use less water. This breeding process is achieved through cross pollination of existing varieties. Once the cross pollination process begins, it takes years to gradually select the more promising varieties, followed by several more years of field trials until the cream of the crop rises to the top.\nFrom the start of a breeding program until a new variety is commercialized can take at least ten years. With lots of exciting new varieties coming into the market place, only some are destined for success, while others will invariably fail. The much loved Pink Lady® apple is truly an Australian success story, coming from Western Australia and now in high demand right around the globe.\nEven before the grower has begun to push out a block of trees, they have to have made the decision two years earlier what variety they wish to plant. They put the order in with a nursery for how many trees that want of what variety grafted onto what rootstock.\nWhen making this critical decision a grower is faced with a range of choices. A tough decision to make 2 years prior to planting and a further 7 years after that until the trees are in full production!\nDo they stick with an existing, well known variety that, while is a known quantity now, may be out of favour in a volatile market place in 9 years time? Do do they opt for a newer variety that may either be a total success or a complete failure? Does the variety have sufficient volume of plantings to have critical mass in the market place? Is it well supported by a strong marketing and promotions package and how much will it cost to buy-in to that scheme?\nNo matter how much homework they do, at some point, a grower has to take a deep breath and muster up all the courage of their convictions to commit to a decision. Once the trees are ordered from the nursery, cultivated and planted into the ground, they will again pour their hearts and souls for the next five to seven years into doing the best they possibly can to get the trees to grow and yield quality fruit.\nIt is only once the trees are producing commercial quantities of fruit that are being packed, stored and sold that they will be able to take stock on that vital decision made many years earlier. It is inevitable that sometimes that decision will prove to have been the wrong one and growers will have to write off all that hard work and start again. But more often than not, through years of experience and careful consideration, the decision will be a good one. This is one of the most rewarding moments in a grower’s life, when years of preparation and toil result in the production of a high quality, profitable crop that consumers enjoy! The culmination of nearly 20 years of development.\nThe next time I bite into a fresh piece of fruit, I will be giving considerably more thought to the many years of its evolution and perhaps not taking it quite so much for granted.\nAs human beings, our need for water is basic and fundamental. The access to clean drinking water is one of our primary humanitarian needs. However, water is also integrally linked to food and fibre production. Without water, plants would not grow and animals would not survive. We also use water for industry and in our daily lives in many ways. Our entire planetary ecosystem is ultimately dependent on water.\nAustralia is a land of extremes, with crippling drought and raging floods all too familiar to us all. Water is not something that we take for granted and it never seems to be available in the quantities we need when we really need it. There are also competing needs for water, with difficult struggles to ensure all stakeholders have an equitable share.\nApproximately 67% of all water used in Australia goes towards producing food and fibre through irrigation (2004 ABS data). This water generates an annual irrigated farm revenue of $9.6 billion! The remainder of our food and fibre production relies on water from natural rainfall.\nHowever irrigators also share the pain and stress of water shortages. Their whole livelihoods rely on reliable access to water. And it is not only their livelihoods, it is the livelihoods and social well being of whole communities that those farmers support.\nThe story that I want to share here is one that shows how Australian farmers are among the most efficient users of water in the world. Our innovators and researchers are constantly seeking new ways to grow more food and fibre with less water. Our farmers are embracing world leading water management methods. Internationally, we are leading the way in water management and others are looking to us to learn from our experiences.\nI don’t say that flippantly. I have been lucky enough to travel to many of the most significant irrigation areas in the world. From my observations our adoption of technology and careful, judicious use of water is paralleled in very few other regions, and certainly not to the wide extent it is here.\nProfessor of Water and Environmental policy, Mike Young, from the University of Adelaide recently backed up this assessment when he shared with ABC Rural his view that Australian irrigators are by far the best in the world and that the rest of the world is now looking to us for water management solutions.\nThis has not happened over night. It has been a huge industry effort, with many great minds working on this challenge for many years; well before the recent droughts and woes of the Murray Darling Basin brought our perilous water situation into sharp focus of the general population.\nThe Irrigated Crop Management Service was first set up in Loxton South Australia in the 1980’s and introduced for the first time a holistic approach to water management, tailoring the amount of water applied to the varying soil requirements through soil mapping and soil water measurement. This was an introduction to early concepts of Precision Farming well ahead of its time.\nAt around the same time, soil water measurement and monitoring services were being established in cotton growing regions of NSW, to fine tune the amount of water being applied to match the crop needs.\nThanks to the early innovators driving industry forward, these two regions can be classified as highly efficient irrigators with extremely high adoption rates of new technologies and management techniques.\nPrivate innovative Australian companies such as Sentek Technologies then successfully commercialized new products in the early 1990’s, which enhanced these approaches and introduced the concept of integrated soil water management to the rest of the world. Many other exciting and innovative products and approaches have been developed by Australian companies since. These approaches have been widely recognised and adopted by consultants and irrigators alike.\nGround breaking research has been conducted in Australia on enhancing quality of fruit crops through regulated deficit irrigation, where water is withheld at critical times of the growing season. The practices are now adopted commonly in the wine grape and stone fruit industries to achieve exceptional quality with reduced amounts of water. Peter Dry’s team at the Waite Institute revealed Partial Rootzone Drying to the world, where the approach of only watering part of the plant’s root zone at any particular time enabled significant water savings in some crops without impacting on yield or quality.\nOur plant researchers are also hard at work to develop new plant genotypes that are more drought tolerant and use less water.\nWithout a doubt, we still need to strive to do more, and produce more with less. We need to work through our policies to ensure our water resources are shared fairly and that we all have access to the water required to meet our basic needs. Once again though, despite all the difficulties and hurdles we are going through at the moment, Australia is leading the way in setting sound policies to secure our future water resources. These are difficult negotiations as they impact on so many people’s livelihoods, but the ground work being laid now will hopefully ensure the long term security of our water resources.\nAs the driest inhabited continent on earth, Australia can stand up and be proud of our achievements and how far we have come in the last 30 years!\nClick here to read Part 1 of the Earth, Water, Wind, Fire series of blogs, which takes you one a journey underneath our feet. |

Sometimes you have to walk away from people, not because you don’t care, but because they don’t. When someone hurts you time and time again, accept the fact that they don’t care about you. It’s a tough pill to swallow, but it’s necessary medicine. Do not strive to impress them any further. Waste not another second of your time trying to prove something to them.

This beautifully crafted box is a pleasure to look at and serves as a convenient storage for incense. It also contains ashes and the burning incense and in that way can protect your house from fire. One of the things we love about these boxes is how beautiful they make the smoke look as it streams out of them.\nThere are 3 holes on each side to put the incense sticks and 2 copper plates for cones inside so you can burn multiple incense as well. These come in a few different designs of wood cutouts and inlaid metal. Very nice item to go with a purchase of incense.\nWe have seen some of these new age shops sell these boxes as high as $20 and we can offer them much cheaper than this. |

Apple’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) Touch ID biometric authentication system will be implemented in the upcoming iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3, as well as the next-generation iPhone, according to the latest rumor out of Asia. Apple supplier Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (NYSE:TSM) began delivering the first batches of the fingerprint sensor assembly for all three devices in mid-April, according to “informed sources” cited by components trading network website cecb2b.com, via MacRumors.\nAccording to the sources, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. has also outsourced some of the fingerprint sensor assembly production to Xintec and Suzhou Jing Fang, two other semiconductor manufacturers. The fingerprint sensors are reportedly being manufactured with the same 8-inch fab method that was previously used for the iPhone 5S, instead of a 12-inch fab method that a previous report from DigiTimes suggested would be used.\nMacRumors reports that the implementation of the Touch ID technology in the next-generation iPad Air and iPad mini aligns with recent predictions made by well-connected KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. Last month, Kuo released a product roadmap that offered various details about Apple’s upcoming products.\nLast year, Apple released the iPad Air on November 1, while the iPad mini with Retina display hit store shelves on November 12. Industry sources cited by Korea’s ETNews claimed that the iPad mini with Retina display launch was delayed due to yield issues related to production of the high-resolution display. Similarly, Jefferies analyst Peter Misek blamed the initial iPhone 5S shortages on “terrible” yields for the fingerprint sensor assembly, reports StreetInsider. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.’s relatively early start on the manufacturing of the fingerprint sensor assemblies for this year’s crop of devices suggests that Apple is seeking to avoid a repeat of last year’s supply problems.\nIt should be noted that Apple isn’t the only tech company gearing up to release a tablet with a fingerprint sensor this year. According to a new report from SamMobile, Samsung’s (SSNLF.PK) upcoming Galaxy Tab S will also feature a fingerprint sensor. Samsung’s tablet will use the same fingerprint sensor technology that the Korea-based company used in its recently released Galaxy S5 smartphone. |
Goal! The Centre of the Impact Map, answers the most important/main question: Why are we doing this? This is the Goal of the mind-map, the thing you are trying to achieve. Because the answer to ‘Why’ is in the centre of the mind-map, it makes sure that everyone knows why they are doing something. Knowing why you are doing something is key to making good decisions about cost, scope and timelines, both at the start and later when things change.\nActors! The Actors are people whose Behavior would be Impacted by or would impact the Goal. In my Example below, my actors were a “Genre Freak”, “Gaming Newbie”, “Experienced Gamer” and “People who haven’t visited the site after 2 months”. I thought the people listed would be impacted or would be a great impact to Upping the Number of Visits to the site.\nImpacts! This part of the Impact Map answers the following questions: “How should the behavior of the actors change?”, “How can they help us achieve the goal” and “How could they get in the way of us reaching the goal?”. The answers to these Questions are the Impacts. In my example, both my Impacts were “Make sure the Genre Freak returns when a new game is released” and “Make sure the Genre Freak looks through multiple pages on the site”. I thought these Impacts are pretty important to Upping the Number of visits to the site.\nDeliverable! The Final part of Impact Mapping is when you ask: “What will I have to do to achieve this?”. The answer to this question.\n← What are Empathy Maps? |

Saying goodbye to my crazy girl before flying to Sydney for a couple of months.\nI’ll be spending time working on several new story ideas, organising events for the release of my picture book, Ollie and Augustus, and running a few workshops.\nIf your Sydney library or school is interested in a workshop then please contact Young Australia .\nToday was all about reviewing the final proofs of Ollie and Augustus – my latest picture book I’ve written and illustrated.\nExciting to see how this book has come together – thanks to the creative team at Walker Books.\nThe release date, September 2019, can’t come soon enough!\nA watercolour and charcoal painting developed using rapid, energy induced strokes. Sometimes, after a focusing on an illustration project, I need to step away and paint for the pure joy of creating.\nIncluded in my thoughts and sketches gallery.\nToday I finished the art for Augustus and Ollie, my new picture book with Walker Books Australia.\nSo excited for this book – featuring Ollie and his best friend (and dog) Augustus.\nThe idea was first conceived in 2014 over a tea (or was it a coffee? Definitely a hot beverage) with a sketch of a large dog and small boy. Fast forward four years and this sketch has become my 25th illustrated book and the first picture book I’ve both written and illustrated for Walker Books.\nReleased Australia wide in early 2019.\nFind some of my other books here.\nA quokka selfie was among the highlights during a brief holiday from my studio.\nTwo weeks exploring Western Australian beaches and karri forests reminded me how lucky I am to live in this remote part of the world.\nRefreshed and refocused I’m back in the studio finishing off my latest picture book with Walker Books.\nI look forward to showing sneak peaks from this new book soon.\nYes, I’m supposed to be 100% focused on my new picture book. But I couldn’t help procrastinating with this watercolour and pencil sketch of a little girl being blown away by the wind.\nOkay, play time over, back to work (proceeds to kitchen to make a coffee).\nWatercolour and gouache over pencil.\nCreating a chicken illustration is always fun – they have such personalities! This extract, from a larger painting, is of a bantam rooster crowing… Very similar to how I looked today coming up with a new picture book idea!\nWork in progress (from a couple of weeks ago). This design was created for the International Board of Books – IBBY Australia’s Perth quiz night.\nThe illustration was created with ink overlaid by watercolour.\nSee the finished version here.\nA fun design created for the International Board of Books IBBY Australia Perth’s branch’s quiz night.\nI was given complete freedom in designing this poster. That in mind I selected to illustrate a balloon house (yes, my dream home if I can’t have a treehouse). The painting was created in watercolour and ink.\nThe original painting will be up for silent auction on the night so if you’re nearby make sure to book a table and bid. Proceeds go to IBBY Australia. |
The IPCC aims to be “policy relevant” and “policy neutral,” and must take great care not to squander its credibility on geoengineering, a topic that is gathering steam precisely when there is no real progress on mitigation and adaptation. The IPCC’s announcement of the expert meeting already suggests that geoengineering has a place in the portfolio of legitimate responses to climate change (a highly contestable claim), and that the role of the IPCC is to define what that role is. Permit us to stress that this is not primarily a scientific question; it is a political one. International peasant organizations, indigenous peoples, and social movements have all expressed outright opposition to such measures as a false solution to the climate crisis.\nThe Scientific Steering Group of this expert meeting includes well-known geoengineering advocates who have called for steep increases in funding for research and for proceeding with experimentation, as well as scientists who have patents pending on geoengineering technologies and/or other financial interests. Asking a group of geoengineering scientists if more research should be done on the topic is like asking a group of hungry bears if they would like honey. Their predictable answer should be viewed with skepticism. At the same time, independent organizations, which have devoted years of critical research to geoengineering, are not allowed to participate, even as observers. |
LIGHT RECIPES FOR YOUR SPRING MENU. THE PEPPER AND GARLIC IN THE BEANS AND THE PANCETTA AND PASTA WITH THE PARMIGIANO ROMANO CHEESE PAIR WONDERFULLY WITH OUR CINQUE BORDEAUX BLEND. A LIGHTER RED WINE ALSO GOES WELL WITH THESE RECIPES AS THEY ARE ON THE LIGHTER SIDE. ENJOY!\nWash and stem the beans, cut diagonally. Fill a large pot with water, 3/4 full. Bring to a boil; add the salt and the string beans. Cook until just al dente, still firm. Drain and set aside. Wash and slice the cherry tomatoes, set aside.\nIn a large skillet heat the oil; when hot add the garlic. Saute the garlic until golden then add the red pepper flakes and the tomatoes. Shake the pan to move the tomatoes all around, cook for five minutes. Add the olives and cook for five more minutes. Add the oregano and string beans. Sprinkle with salt, stir well to coat the beans, cook for about 8-10 more minutes and serve at once.\nCut the broccoflower in half. Remove the core and cut the florets into smaller pieces. Wash and drain in colander. Cut the pancetta into small cubes. Crush the garlic and remove the skin. In a small skillet, heat the olive oil, add the pancetta and cook stirring occasionally until it begins to render the fat. Add the garlic and the red pepper flakes and continue cooking until the garlic is golden. Remove from heat.\nBring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the florets and cook for 8-10 minutes. Add the orecchiette and cook for 12 more minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving one cup of its cooking water. Transfer back into the same pan, add the pancetta with it rendered fat. Over medium heat, stir the pasta and the sauce to coat completely for about one minute. Stir in the cheeses. Serve immediately with additional cheese if desired.\n*A broccoflower looks just like a cauliflower but it is green. It is more flavorful than the white cauliflower. There is also another variety which has pointy florets and is known as Romanesco. |
During last night’s episode of The Ultimate Fighter season 11 Jamie Yager failed to answer the bell for the third round of his quarter-final fight with Josh Bryant, despite pleas from both his team-mates and coach Tito Ortiz to not give up.\nNot long afterwards Yager is taken to hospital for a check-up (in which it’s ascertained that no major damage has been sustained) while Ortiz is shown in the dressing room criticizing the fighter, saying that if you don’t have heart you shouldn’t be in this business.\nAfter the episode aired on Spike TV it appeared as if Yager did not take kindly to his coaches comments, as a series of derogatory remarks were fired at Ortiz from a twitter account believed to belong to the fighter.\nLater on Ortiz responded angrily though stopped short of returning fire with both barrels. That was probably just as well as it turned out that we had all been duped and Yager’s supposed messages had in fact come from a hoax account as the fighter himself later clarified on his real account.\nAfter that tirade Ortiz finally responded back several hours later.\nSo it seems to be just another internet hoax…or is it? Some people are still hanging on to the theory that the fake account was indeed Yager’s, pointing to the fact that Yager’s own management linked to the supposedly ‘fake’ account.\nBoth Yager and his management continue to deny that it’s his account though, and unless more concrete proof that it’s him arises it’s only right to take them at their word. |
Troubled economic times come without a warning and such situations do not even give enough time to think about a possible befitting solution. At such times, getting an instant payday loan would probably be the most convenient and appropriate solution.As the name suggests, Instant Payday Loans are short-term loans that can be availed instantly. They are cash advances that are supposed to be paid back on the next paycheck day of the borrower. They are small sized loans that help in assisting people to fulfill their immediate financial needs especially when they cannot wait until their paycheck comes. So, it is easier to get financial aid from private lenders in the form of a payday loan and the cash advance can be used to pay off any immediate debts or to make any urgent purchases and can be paid back on time after the paycheck arrives before there is a drop in the credit score due to amassing of interest rates and unpaid credits.\nThe payday loans are more popularly known by other different names, like – ‘payday advance’, since the amount is taken as an advance ahead of the payday; as a ‘quick cash’ loan or as ‘cash advance’ or a ‘short-term’ loan, since the loan is taken over a short period of time and the cash is given as an advance. It is also called as ‘small-dollar’ loan as small amounts of money is taken as a loan for a short-term and also as a ‘personal loan’, as it is usually taken to fulfill personal financial necessities.\nThere are a few important criteria that a borrower has to fulfill in order to be eligible for getting an instant payday loan.\n1. Jurisdiction - Not all states in the United States are likely to provide a payday loan. Payday loans are legally available only in 32 states in the US and 18 states completely forbid the practice of providing a payday loan. The 3 other states offer different other forms of short-term loans or payday loans at a lower interest rate.\nThe 32 states in the US that provide legalized payday loans include – Alabama, Wyoming, Alaska, Wisconsin, California, Washington, Delaware, Virginia, Florida, Utah, Hawaii, Texas, Idaho, Tennessee, Illinois, South Carolina, North Dakota, Indiana, Rhode Island, Iowa, Oklahoma, Kansas, Ohio, Kentucky, New Mexico, Louisiana, Nevada, Michigan, Nebraska, Minnesota, Mississippi, and Missouri.\nThe states that provide the payday loans at very low-interest rates by setting usury limits include – New York, New Jersey, Georgia, Arkansas, Maine, New Hampshire, Montana, South Dakota, Oregon, and Colorado.\nThe states where payday loan practice is prohibited or stopped now include - Arizona, North Carolina, Connecticut, Massachusetts, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and Vermont.\nThe US legislation has imposed many rules and restrictions on the practice of providing a payday loan which is dissimilar in different states. While some jurisdictions have very few restrictions regarding the payday loans, a few of them put a limit on the APR, and a few have completely prohibited the provision of payday loans.\nSo, you will have to be a legal resident of the state that provides a payday loan legally to avail one.\n2. Age – You will have to be a legal adult who is 18 years old or above. This is important as minors are not allowed to handle financial contracts on the legal front. You will have to provide the lender with a legal document to prove your age.\n3. Residency – It is important that you are a legal permanent resident of the US. It is not requirement for you to be a US citizen. However, you should be permanent US resident and you should provide the legal documents to prove the same to the lender.\n4. Active Checking Account – It is essential for you to have an active checking account which is a source of proof for your residency and for your income. This account is also important if you are looking to get an online loan so that the lender can deposit the loan cash in your current checking account by wire and the repayment can also be done in the same way.\n5. Employment and Income – Most payday loan lenders will provide a loan based on the previous payroll details and employment history. So, it is important that you have a clean employment history and are currently employed with a steady income that is sufficient to manage your monthly expenses and pay the loan. It is important to provide a legal proof that shows that there is a steady income flow in your account which shows that you are capable of repaying the borrowed loan. The income could be of any form – either as a salary or as benefits.\nOnce you are considered to be eligible under all the above-given criteria and after you provide all the required legal documents, then the lender will go ahead and process your payday loan.\nEvery state page has all the details regarding the availability of payday loan practice in the respective state. The page will show a list of the regulatory laws with reference to the APR, the usury cap limits, the citations to limit the rate cap on small loans, the list of payday loan lenders who are licensed and authorized by the government, their websites, and contact information. There are also laws regarding the protection of consumers against criminal usury.\nIt is important that you explore well and find a state-licensed lender according to the borrowing loan amount, the APR, type of loan, and other factors. You can find a good list of all the reliable lenders with us at instantcreditloansus.com and go ahead with your loan application.\nA typical payday loan process will start with the borrower filling a loan application in which the required loan amount and other needed details shall be mentioned. The lender will carry out some basic verification and check the age, residency, and income proof of the borrower. Although many lenders will not perform any credit checks, a few of them may look into the income history and bank statements to confirm that there is a steady income flowing into the borrower’s account on a regular basis. However, each payday lender, credit unions, or individual financing franchises will have their own criteria and underwritings.\nAfter the verification process is completed successfully, the lender will approve the payday loan. As the name suggests, the borrower will have to repay the loan on the payday i.e. on the day when the next paycheck arrives. The borrower will provide the lender with a post-dated check citing the whole loan amount along with the APR and fees. The borrower will usually come back on the payday or on the day of loan maturity and pay the loan amount as a lump sum to the lender. If the borrower does not turn up, the lender will deposit and redeem the check.\nIn any case, if the borrower does not have enough funds in the account when the lender has deposited the check, then the borrower will be subjected to the check-bounce penalty in addition to the loan amount. If the borrower still defers paying the amount, then the interest rates will increase and the payable amount will keep getting accumulated.\nRecent technology changes and innovations have allowed applying for a payday loan an easier process as it can be done online too. Most of the payday loan lenders provide simple and easy online tools that will enable the borrower to file an online loan application. If the lender needs some documented proof, then the applicant will have to fax them to the lender. Once the loan has been approved, the lender will credit the amount to the checking account of the borrower.\nMost of the online tools are very simple so that it is easier for the common man to file an online loan application. The borrower will have to provide the necessary information and details while filling out the online application so that the application can be qualified. When this process is done, the cash is transferred to the account electronically. This becomes easier and convenient as the needed cash will fall into your account in a stipulated time and the borrower can withdraw it from any ATM or use the card linked with the account to make any purchase, etc. At instantcreditloansus.com, we will help you connect with the lenders who will offer very convenient options for you to get an online payday loan.\nSo, all you will need is an active internet connection and a computer. Fill out the complete online loan application and you can get your approved as quickly as possible.\nThere are many people who are not familiar with using the internet or are not comfortable filling an online application, or many a time there are situations where many people do not have an access to the cyberspace or a network connection. A few people are assured and feel secure when they have a P2P conversation and can ask for the tiny details and doubts while filing a loan application.\nFor such consumers, most of the credit financing companies and the private money lenders tend to provide the option to apply a loan application over a phone call. Bigger financing companies have a toll-free number that will provide 24 x 7 customer care and is always ready to help the consumers to deal with any kind of a trouble while filing for a loan, whereas smaller and individual lenders will assist the borrowers personally or will have a manager do so for them.\nAlthough the online application service is convenient and easier, the alternative telephonic provision for filing a payday loan application is for the consumers who cannot meet their online demands.\n• A Convenient Option – Instant Payday loans are convenient. Most lenders provide online options which make it easier and faster to apply for a loan and to get the money into the account.\n• Lesser Hassles –Conventional banks carry out a lot of complicated paperwork and a lengthy verification process which usually takes a long time for processing. The payday loan processing is comparatively less and there are no hassles of complicated verification and paperwork.\n• No Collateral – Many traditional banks will need you to assign collateral or bring in a cosigner as surety against the loan you have applied for. This not only takes a lot of time and paperwork, it is also a setback for people who do not have much to place as a guarantee. Unlike the banks, payday loan lenders will not ask for any collateral or cosigner. They provide the payday loan as an unsecured loan and so they will apply appropriate APR as surety.\n• Quicker Approval Times – Since the loan processing and verification times are less the overall loan processing time is also reduced considerably. Many lenders follow the‘instant payday loans same day approval’ requisite i.e. most of the payday loans are approved on the same day within a few hours else it would be done by the next business day. We, at instantcreditloansus.com, will make sure to provide you with the much-needed loan as quickly as possible by communicating with the lenders.\n• Prompt Credits – Getting an online application helps to get a prompt credit for the applied loan. As soon as the application is approved, the lender will promptly transfer the loan amount into the borrower’s checking account. However, even if the payday loan application is filed on a P2P basis, the cash is given to the borrower quickly.\n• Round-the-clock Availability - Apart from providing the ‘instant payday loans same day approval’ amenity, the payday loans also offer the facility of being available to the consumers on a 24 x 7 basis. The lenders and the customer care agents are available round-the-clock to answer queries and to provide an instant cash advance loan in times of emergencies. Our representatives at instantcreditloansus.com will be available to provide you with all the required details for your queries.\n• Best Solution While In Urgent Need – While processing the loan application, the lenders tend to ask and clarify regarding the situation for which the loan is being taken. If it is a genuine reason especially during emergencies, the payday loan will get approved instantly once all the required documents have been submitted and the formalities have been completed. If you are getting in as an online loan, then even the few intrusive questions will not have to be answered.\nCredit scores are the checkpoints which give an idea about your financial history in just a gist. Any due bills or default payments will show up as a scar on the credit history. A low credit score indicates that there have been flaws while repaying a past loan or if there are any unmanageable pending bills. Either of it will be seen as a blemish to the financial credibility of the borrower. So, it is better to keep a track of all your payments and due bills and manage them sensibly so that it does not affect your credit scores adversely as it will be difficult in the future.\nHowever, being irresponsible or being lazy is not the only reasons why a payment got missed out on time. There could be many genuine reasons why a bill payment date got missed out or a payment went beyond your due date. But the banks do not wish to care about your reasons. They will only look at your credit numbers and decide if the loan process can be taken ahead or be rejected. This is not the case with the private money creditors. They will carry out a soft and a meager verification process to check for the authenticity of the borrower. Once the required documentation and verification for short-term loans bad credit has been completed successfully, the loan will get sanctioned instantly. At instantcreditloansus.com, we will make sure that you get a second chance and your application for short-term loans bad credit with the lender will get approved as quickly as possible.\nIn order to have a good credit score, it is important to pay the bills and loans back on time. The lenders also believe that you would be a responsible person and provide you with the instant loan being assured that you will repay on time. The lenders will provide the loan after scheduling the repayment options like the date, amount, interest rates, fees, mode of payment, etc. Typically, for a payday loan, the borrower pays back on the next payday or when the paycheck comes in.\nSo, if your payday is once in every 2 weeks, or if your paycheck comes in at the end of the month, then you can plan your repayment schedule according to those days. If you cannot pay the whole loan amount along with the interest and fees at once, it is better to intimate the lender beforehand so that the situation can be worked out and a better deal can be planned in a timely fashion.\nThere are plenty of financiers and private credit unions that will take advantage of your situation and apply very high-interest rates and charge sky-rocketing amounts of fees. And during desperate situations, people will only look towards having a solution rather than analyzing if it is the best or the right option. So, it is mandatory to think wisely and explore well. Look for the lenders who are state-licensed as they will abide by the regulatory rules imposed by the government with regard to the APR and payday loans. It is also essential to look for the genuine lenders who will provide you with the most appropriate and suitable plan by taking into consideration your income levels, the reason for taking the loan, your credit scores, etc.\nIt is important that you keep enough balance in the bank account after your paycheck comes so that you can pay back the loan on time and can avoid any check bouncing damages. It is also advised to take a small amount of money as a payday loan. It is better to loan the amount which is exactly needed to deal with the emergency rather than taking a huge amount which becomes burdensome to be repaid on time. Not paying on time will only build up the interest rates and the accumulated loan amount. As it is a non-secured short-term loan that is provided without a credit check, the lenders will apply the interest rates accordingly so that they will not have any loss in their business. So, it is better to take a small-sized loan and pay off the immediate debts and manage well to repay the payday loan with the next paycheck.\nAt instantcreditloansus.com, we will connect you with the state-licensed genuine money lenders who will provide an appropriate payday loan plan which will be very economical and efficient for you and also, we will make sure that they approve it as quickly as possible for you to meet your critical financial needs instantly. |

Google co-founder Sergey Brin said Chrome was designed to address the shift to using software from within a Web browser rather than as locally installed computer applications running inside Microsoft Windows or some other operating system.\nGoogle believes any task done in a standalone desktop computer application can be delivered via the Web and Chrome is its bet that software applications can be run via a browser.\n“We (Web users) want a very lightweight, fast engine for running applications,” Brin said.\n“The kind of things you want to have running standalone (on a computer) are shrinking,” he said, adding that he still edits photos on his computer rather than using a Web program.\nLike, Google Earth (the local version) has its WOW factor (hardware accelerated), but Google Maps can load up the maps and satellite images much faster – just by replacing images in the grid. A good analogy: home computing is to home cooking, whereas web-apps is to dining out; the “server” can feed many people at once. |

Earlier this month, the Obama Administration announced that provisions of the Affordable Care Act requiring employers to provide health insurance to their employees, provided that they employ 50 or more workers, will be delayed until 2015. Earlier this week, the House of Representatives voted to delay another Affordable Care Act provision mandating that Americans either purchase health coverage or pay a penalty.\nAs readers can see, many key provisions of the Affordable Care Act are either being delayed or are being otherwise scrutinized by various branches of government. However, one provision that should be revisited for the benefit of Americans on Medicaid is currently not being challenged.\nMany vulnerable Americans, including some ill and injured persons receiving Social Security Disability (SSD) benefits, rely on Medicaid for much of their healthcare. The Affordable Care Act somehow leaves American adults already receiving state-run Medicaid out of a new mandate requiring Medicare, Medicaid expansion plans, and most private insurers to provide coverage for a variety of preventative screenings and services.\nA recent study published in Health Affairs indicates that the preventative screening coverage recommended presently by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force will not mandatorily extend to most current recipients of state-run Medicaid programs under the Affordable Care Act.\nPreventative screenings designed to detect early signs of cancer and heart disease among other conditions are critical for maintaining the health and well-being of many American adults. As various branches of government contemplate how to delay or reform the Affordable Care Act in order to protect financial interests of businesses and individuals alike, they should also revisit the provision which would leave vulnerable Americans without access to necessary preventable screening coverage. |
