Hospital Admissions, Inpatient Stay, and Discharge
On this Page
Hospital Admissions
Admission to the hospital is something none of us wants to do, but is also something many people experience at least once in their lifetime. For children with special needs or disabilities, hospital admission can be more complicated with more things to consider.
Admission to the hospital may happen as a result of a visit to the emergency room, or your child might be sent to the hospital after a visit with his primary care clinician. Sometimes hospital admissions are planned ahead for surgeries, medical procedures, and treatment. Some children with special health care and medical needs may experience multiple hospital admissions for many different reasons. Many families of children with special health care needs are all too familiar with the process of hospital admissions. Whether your child is admitted to the hospital only rarely, or he is a "frequent flyer," you can help make the experience easier on everyone by taking a proactive role and learning about the process of admissions, inpatient stays, and discharge.
Parents of children in the hospital often feel uneducated and intimidated by the hospital processes, which can seem overwhelming. The more you are involved, the more those feelings will dissipate and you'll be able to advocate for your child in the hospital setting. Ask questions, and ask for more explanation when you need it. Letting health care professionals know you want to be involved and work with them as your child's advocate on the health care team will help both you and the professionals to feel comfortable working together.
Hospital admission requires criteria for admission, which is usually provided by a doctor, and patient information, which will be provided by you. Patient information is the paperwork that you will be asked to fill out, or it will be entered into a computer by hospital staff. If you have a child who has a medical history, it is helpful to have information available in a care notebook or something similar. A care notebook is a binder families use to keep their child's entire medical and care information in one place. Much of the information in your care notebook is what you will need to fill in the admission forms. This can be one of your best tools, especially when used at hospital admission and health care visits. To assemble your own Care Notebook, go to: Care Notebook.
When your child is being admitted into the hospital, here are some things to consider:
- Have we been informed of our patient rights?
- If we have communication needs, are they being met? (language interpreter, assistive device, etc.)
- If I am having trouble filling out admission forms, can someone help me?
- Are we being treated with dignity and respect in a culturally competent manner?
- Does my child have needs that may affect her care? Have I communicated these needs to the health care team?
- Do I truly understand what is going on? Have things been explained to me at a level that I can understand?
- Is my child being included to the best of his ability?
Even if your child is being admitted to the hospital in an emergency situation, and decisions are being made based on emergency criteria, as a parent, you have the right to be informed of everything that is happening and to be included in decision making.
If your child is sent to the hospital for admission from a visit at a doctor's office, it is usually because there is an immediate concern, and the physician felt it was best for your child to be in the hospital. In these physician referral situations, the admission process may begin in the admissions office or through the emergency room.
If your child is being admitted to the hospital for surgery or treatment, you will likely complete much of the admissions process well beforehand, and will arrive at the hospital with most of the paperwork completed. It is still good to bring your child's care notebook or medical history, just in case you need it.
Frequent Hospital Admission
Some children with special health care and medical needs are frequently admitted to the hospital, and sometimes without much notice. It can be helpful for families to be prepared for these multiple trips to the hospital. Here are a few suggestions to make these trips a little easier.
- Pack a "go bag" for yourself and one for your child. Keep these bags somewhere that you can grab them and go. A go bag will contain your toothbrush, personal items, comfortable clothes, a book or something to read, and maybe some snacks or change for vending machines. For your child, you'll want to include some comfort items, like a favorite toy or a movie to watch, and his own toothbrush. It is hard enough having to go to the hospital without knowing ahead, but having some of your things with you can make things go smoother.
- Have a few friends, family members, or neighbors who you can call to take care of your other children, house, or pets. It helps to talk with a few people ahead of time and ask them if they can help out if you're in a jam. They may be able to come get your kids and watch them, collect your mail, or feed your dog.
- Don't forget your care notebook! Keep it in a place that is easy to access when leaving your house.
Inpatient Hospital Stay
If your child is admitted to the hospital, it usually means she'll be staying a day or more. As your child settles into her room, you will meet new hospital staff and a new health care team.
As an inpatient, your child will usually have a nurse, attending physician or hospitalist, and other team members, such as a resident physician, respiratory therapist, social worker, CNA, or other health professionals.
As a parent, it is your right to be informed of what is happening with your child. If you want to be part of the health care team, let the attending physician and nurse know. You can even be part of meetings or rounds involving your child.
While staying at the hospital, your child will be cared for by people who may not know him. Sometimes, doctors, nurses, or other health care professionals may come into the room and begin to talk with you without introducing themselves and their title. Do not hesitate to ask who they are and how they are related to your child's case; it is important that you know with whom you're talking. Some hospitals have whiteboards in the rooms that will indicate who your child's health care team members are, for example: Attending Physician – John Smith, Resident Physician – Cathy Bush, RN – Joe Johnson. These boards can also be effective for communication between you and the staff. You can write your questions, needs, or preferences on the board. If your hospital room does not have a whiteboard, create something yourself. A sheet of paper could do, but remember, if your child is in the hospital for multiple days, his medical team may change as the doctors or nurses change shifts or duties.
It can be helpful to put up signs that let nurses and doctors know more about your child. One parent we know always puts up a sign at her child's bedside that states, "Hi, my name is Adam. I have non-verbal speech impairment, so I do not use words to communicate. I can understand what you are saying. Please introduce yourself to me and talk to me, too." Another parent puts signs up to remind nurses of a specific way her child needs to be suctioned, and another posted signs to not disturb his child when he was sleeping. Signs can serve as friendly visual reminders for professionals who see multiple patients and sometimes need to be reminded of special circumstances.
Sometimes a child (and family) needs to learn about an upcoming surgery or procedure. Some hospitals have Child Life departments and specialists to educate, ease anxiety, address fears, and explain benefits of particular surgeries or procedures. Children sometimes get bored in the hospital, and Child Life may also be able to assist with activities for your child, taking the focus off what is happening and keeping her entertained. Some hospitals have video, book, and toy lending libraries. Ask your child's nurse if these services are available at your hospital. It's also a great idea to bring a few things from home, such as toys to play with, books to read, or videos to watch.
Hospital Discharge
Discharge is the process of leaving the hospital, but leaving is the final step. Discharge includes planning and preparing for your child and family's needs when you go home. Discharge can take hours, or sometimes days to prepare and complete.
Many different people are involved in the discharge process, including the patient and family, attending physicians, resident physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, case managers, discharge planners, social workers, and sometimes home care professionals.
Sometimes discharge can be more complicated. You may need to make arrangements for medication, home health care and supplies, and follow up care. As a family, it is also important to learn how to safely and confidently care for your child at home. Nurses, social workers, and other hospital staff can involve and assist you and your child by answering questions, helping you make decisions about ongoing care, ordering home care supplies, arranging follow-up appointments, and helping you find community services and supports.
Here is a discharge checklist from an experienced parent:
- Are you confident about taking your child home? Sometimes parents feel or know that the child is not ready, for one reason or another. If you think he should stay another day because he is still too sick to go home, or you feel you need more education about special care, make sure to let the attending physician know, and explain your concerns.
- Has everything regarding your child's hospital stay, ongoing health issues, prescriptions, and follow-up care been communicated to your child's primary care physician? If not, ask the nurse to have the records sent. If your child does not have a primary care physician, you may need to choose one. If you need assistance with this, ask if you can see a social worker.
- Do you have everything you need to take care of your child when you get home? Sometimes the delivery of home care supplies can take a while. If there is anything your child is using in the hospital that he will need at home—for example, suction catheters, oxygen, g-tube supplies—ask the nurse if you can take a small supply of these items home to use until home care supplies arrive.
- Do you have and understand the discharge papers? Make sure you can read them and thoroughly understand them. When you leave the hospital, make sure you know where you put them. In the rush of finally getting to go home, such paperwork is easily lost (remember, this is experience talking). Once you are home, you will need them for instructions, referrals, and phone numbers. If you keep a care notebook for your child, you can keep the discharge papers in it.
- Do you have phone numbers to call if you have questions after you are home? You may still be able to contact the attending physician from the hospital, and you can also call your child's primary care physician. If you have a complicated child, and your physician's office has on-call service, ask your physician to give the other doctors a "heads up" about your child, and inform them that you may be calling after-hours.
- Go home and enjoy it! Even though things may still feel stressful, you are home with your child and family. Eat some real food, sleep in your own beds, get some rest, and enjoy.

The Reynolds Forty-Six wheelset is a deep section, carbon clincher package which comes with a premium price tag as standard. Sitting in direct competition to the Zipp 404 Firecrest, this price point is occupied by real wheel-tech big-hitters; open mould options need not apply. With plenty of features trickling down from Reynolds' own price-record-breaking RZR wheelset, the Forty Six is an attractive offer for the performance conscious.
This year Reynolds has really hit out on the offensive in the UK. It's for good reason that we keep hearing about them; an impressively wide and varied range is backed with both dealer demo and crash replacement schemes. The first set of wheels I tested from Reynolds was the excellent, carbon-clincher value-benchmark, Assualt C. Over 1,000km on Majorcan roads they came up trumps offering fantastic performance at around the £1,000 mark. The Forty Six is double the price of the Assualt C without an earth shattering weight saving for your money. So what tech bonus do you get for your money?
- Swirl lip generator
- Higher modulus carbon
- Higher pressure moulding system
- Specially developed resin system
- DT 190 hubs
- DT Aerolite spokes
- Much better and lighter quick release skewers
- Better graphics
Reynolds have really gone to town on publishing tech and research in their White Paper series; you can find a full series download on the Reynolds website. This is largely focussed on the RZR wheelset but features such as the Swirl Lip Generator feed down to the Forty Six. The principle is pretty simple; reduce the pressure drag by tripping the flow. There are plenty of examples of that technique around. It is far too difficult to analyse objectively out on the road, but it certainly doesn't feel gimmicky if you know the theory.
Reynolds also talk about their use of a higher-pressure moulding technique and more expensive, higher-modulus fibres in the Forty Six versus the Assault. Often features like this go unreported in reviews despite being very important to performance. With just a little knowledge of the composites mathematics and manufacture it becomes clear how important the moulding technique and quality of manufacture is to the structure. Reynolds don't give away too much on their site about this... not surprisingly because this is the real 'black magic' aspect of composites.
One more feature that warrants a mention - a feature common to all the Reynolds carbon clinchers – is the CTg brake track. It means that heat build-up induced punctures just don't happen; a big stumbling block for many carbon clinchers. The brake track combines with Reynolds own Cyro blue pads to produce excellent braking on a carbon rim. It doesn't stop there, either; the pads far outlast anything I have used before on carbon. This is a real advantage of the Reynolds package.
So how do all these tech features deliver on the road? These wheels have been through a more varied test than most wheels I get, including a 360km (225-mile) adventure with road.cc's Dave Atkinson and a few rounds of the Bath Cycle Races along with most distances in between. Over all those miles they've provided a faultless, uninterrupted performance. They are as stiff as you need and light enough for anyone with premium hubs, excellent braking and a price tag which is justifiable for the performance
The comfort provided by these wheels on long rides means there's no restriction on where and when you can use them, from criterium to epic Audax. Don't think of these as race-only wheels. For those with the cash, this is a high-quality, do-it-all wheelset that can take you miles, and do it fast. I want a set... and I want the kind of job you need in order to afford them too.
Deep-section carbon clinchers that are stiff and light with excellent braking; the price tag is justified by the performance

Lindsay Lohan hasn't been "fired" just yet… in fact, Donald Trump is considering offering the troubled starlet (along with her mother, Dina) a spot on his hit NBC reality business drama, "Celebrity Apprentice."
"We would love to have [Dina and Lindsay] both as a team," Donald told Access Hollywood's Tony Potts in New York on Wednesday, on the possibility of a LiLo "Apprentice" appearance. "You know, we did it with Joan Rivers, not to equate — but we did it with Joan and Melissa, and they came on as a team, and it was a great success. We've been talking to [Dina and Lindsay] as a team, as opposed to individuals."
VIEW THE PHOTOS: The Lohan Family
Donald said he knows the Lohan family "very well," and although "they're terrific people," the mogul said Lindsay would have to completely clean up her act before joining the "Apprentice" team would be a possibility.
"She's got a problem. So before they do anything, she's gonna straighten out her problem," he told Access. "I've spoken to Lindsay, I've spoken to the mother, but they've gotta really straighten Lindsay out first."
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Donald Trump: The Man, The Money… The Hair!
The real estate mogul has been lucky to avoid the pitfalls of drug and alcohol abuse – partially due to witnessing substance abuse in his own family.
"I had a brother who was a serious alcoholic, and I learned from that," Donald said. "He was great because he would tell me, 'Don't drink, don't drink.' But if you gave me scotch, and put it in front of me — no interest. But if I was a big drinker, I'd be going crazy – 'I want it, I want it, I want it.'
"So if you don't drink, and if you don't smoke, and if you don't, you know, go with the drug stuff, there's no interest in it," he added.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Lindsay Lohan: The Early Years
As for Lindsay's current problems, the father of five said poor parental examples can be to blame for children's negative behavior.
"[Lindsay's father, Michael] sounds like a nice guy. Whenever I meet him he's so nice and everything else, but let's see — he has drugs, he has prison, he has fights, he has lots of problems," Donald explained.

As for Dina, the billionaire didn't assign blame but admitted something must be amiss in Lindsay's home life.
"Dina – I mean, I really think she's a nice woman," Donald told Tony. "But somehow, something went wrong."
"I know [Michael and Dina] love their daughter, and they want their daughter to get better," he added.
Catch Donald on "The Apprentice" on Thursdays at 10 PM on NBC.

Bruce Wrobel is a man with his heart in the right place. You see, Bruce is in the agricultural business and he plans to solve the world's complex food security issues by creating sustainable, community oriented projects. He is the CEO of Herakles Farms – a corporation with some very wealthy friends.
Bruce loves Africa and he and his buddies like to get together and ponder how they could end hunger there (among other things) over games of golf. In fact, Bruce even created an NGO called All for Africa, to help do just that.
Of course, Bruce and his buddies don't say they are in the agriculture business for the money; instead, they would have you believe they are "addressing a dire humanitarian need."
But what Bruce says and what Bruce does are two different things.
Bruce wants to grow a big palm oil plantation. And we mean BIG. This plantation would be one of the largest in Africa and out of all the land out there, he chose about 73,000 hectares between five protected areas, at the fringe of world's second largest biodiversity hotspot.
The Herakles Farms project would displace local communities and wreak environmental havoc. This could be the reality in the South West region in Cameroon if Bruce and his buddies are not stopped.
A new report from the Oakland Institute in collaboration with Greenpeace International reveals in detail the REAL threats posed by Herakles Farms' plans to establish a large palm oil plantations roughly eight times the size of Manhattan, through a 99-year land lease.
The huge global appetite for palm oil shows no signs of abating and has seen Africa become the latest target for investors.
Research by Greenpeace shows the extent of this investment and the dangers to the climate that large-scale industrial expansion of the palm oil sector represents if it is allowed to continue unchecked.
The opaque nature of some of these negotiations means the deals can be viewed as an aspect of these global land grabs. The Herakles case is a prime example of this.
The very legality of the convention signed by the company's subsidiary SGSOC with the Cameroonian government in 2009 has been questioned. Herakles Farms has been repeatedly violating Cameroonian law and, as the Oakland Institute report details, has sparked widespread opposition and anger. For many residents the plantation poses a significant and direct threat to their livelihoods.
Greenpeace research on the ground in Cameroon has revealed that Herakles continues work on the plantation despite numerous legal challenges and local opposition.
Bruce Wrobel claims the project will boost the local economy and create jobs. He also claims revenues from the project will fund development projects through All for Africa. Yet there are no details on how or when such jobs will be created and there is silence on the fact that his and his company's plantation would result in major deforestation, loss of biodiversity and the conversion of natural land and forests into a monoculture crop.
Put simply the Herakles Farms project is the wrong project, in the wrong place. Bruce and his buddies must be stopped now.

Thank you for posting this urgent request for assistance. I have immediately contacted my colleague who is close with the minister of forests in Cameroon.
I have asked to purchase this land in question for its sustainability measures.
There is nothing good that can come out through chain stripping the forest in order to set up palm plantations where poor people can work for $2 a day while pisteleros run around killing wildlife to protest the palm fruits.

If settlements all over the world each have their own little plantation it is not necessary for one idiot to destroy such a big area. Seems to me he wants it all to himself and his motivation is money - let me tell you that Nature will stand up to you and millions of humans on this planet support you NOT causing devastation. I do not even know how can the need be that high - less oil use is healthier and if we eat like we should we wouldn't need oil. Olive oil is the healthiest.

The Seattle Seahawks have added a new body along the offensive line.
The team signed veteran guard Wade Smith on Monday, per FoxSports.com's Alex Marvez. Smith later confirmed that he's Seattle bound via Twitter:
So thankful to be able to continue living out my NFL dreams this year w/ the @Seahawks!! Time to WORK!! #SeahawkNationâ
Wade Smith (@Smitty74allday)
August 4, 2014
The 11-year lineman spent the last four seasons with the Texans after stints with the Chiefs, Jets and originally the Dolphins, who made him a third-round pick in 2003.
Smith started 64 straight games for Houston but struggled both as a pass-blocker and road-grader in 2013, ranking 58th out of 81 eligible guards, per Pro Football Focus. He also brings experience playing center and tackle.
The signing brings Seattle's roster to the 90-man limit, adding a player with experience in Tom Cable's zone-blocking scheme. With James Carpenter and J.R. Sweezy penciled in as Seattle's starting guards, the 33-year-old Smith is no lock to make this roster.

Modifying Existing Queries in Access 2007 Forms and Reports
As you work with queries in Access 2007, you may find that the queries you create could use a bit of fine-tuning. Perhaps you want to pare down the results so you don't have to wade through so many records, or maybe you've discovered that it really is a pain to slog through a whole bunch of unsorted data. Whatever the reason, being able to modify existing queries, rather than starting from scratch, can be a real time saver.
When you're experimenting with modifying queries, be sure to heed any warning messages that Access displays when you attempt to run the modified query. Remember that select queries and crosstab queries are always safe because they don't modify any of your data, but the other types of queries can modify data.
Deleting a query
Sometimes, the easiest, safest, and smartest thing to do with a query is to get rid of it entirely and start over. If something has gone wrong and you're not sure what it is, go ahead and delete the query. Just highlight it in the list of queries and press Delete.
Modifying an existing query
No matter which method you used to create a query, you really have only one option for modifying an existing query. That option is to open the query in Design View and make your changes in the Query editor. Access doesn't offer any wizards to help you modify existing queries.
To open an existing query in Design View, select the query in the database window, right-click it, and then choose Design View. When you open a query this way, the Query editor looks exactly the way it does when you're creating a query in Design View. That is, there aren't separate creating and editing modes to confuse you.
In some cases, you may find that fields you added to a query don't appear in the Query editor when you edit the query. The reason for the mysterious disappearing fields can't be attributed to aliens or ghosts; it's simply that Access drops any unused fields when you save a query. If you had fields in the query that didn't serve any purpose in the query, those fields are gone when you reopen the query.
After you open the query in Design View, you can click the Show Table button on the Ribbon. The Show Table dialog box appears so that you can add additional tables to the query. You can also add additional fields to the query by using the same methods you use when you're first creating a query in Design View. Likewise, you can add or modify any of the query criteria in exactly the same way you do when creating a query.
Rearranging and deleting fields in a query
The one query-editing task that you might find a little confusing at first is rearranging the fields in the query. You can change the order of the fields by
- Dragging and dropping new fields: To drag and drop a field, you need to drag the very small gray bar that's just above the Field row. When you drag and drop a field onto the column of an existing field, the existing field and any fields to its right shift to the right so that the new field is inserted before the existing field.
- Clicking the Field box of a column and selecting a different field for the column.
- Deleting existing fields: To delete a field, position the mouse pointer at the top of the field's column just above the Field row and then click when the pointer becomes a solid black down arrow. Choose the appropriate Delete button from the Ribbon or press the Delete key to remove the field. The remaining fields to the right shift to the left to fill the empty column.

The SKF solutionSKF engineers determined that stray electric currents passing through the motor bearings were causing the failures. To stop them, SKF installed an INSOCOAT bearing with a coated outer ring on the non-drive side, and an INSOCOAT bearing with a coated inner ring on the drive side.
The resultsThe INSOCOAT bearings outlasted the conventional bearings by three years, more than tripling service life and saving the plant €55 000 in lost productivity.
Return On Investment (ROI) over 3 years
- Lost productivity costs: €56 000
- Initial bearing solution investment: €1 000
- Total savings: €55 000
- Total ROI: 6 122%

CLEVELAND (AP) Kyrie Irving was rewarded for a week he'll have trouble topping.
Cleveland's second-year guard was named the Eastern Conference's player of the week on Monday after leading the NBA in scoring and carrying the Cavs to three straight wins. In the three games, Irving averaged 35.7 points, scored 40 points in a win over Boston, had 35 against Milwaukee and hit a game-winning 3-pointer in the final second on Saturday night as the Cavs beat Toronto.
Those performances came in the same week that Irving was selected to his first All-Star team and named Cleveland's top professional athlete of 2012, when he was voted NBA Rookie of the Year.
``He's had probably one of the best weeks of his life,'' Cavaliers coach Byron Scott said after practice.
This is first time Irving has been named player of the week. It's one of the few honors that has eluded the 20-year-old , who was picked as an All-Star reserve but could be elevated to a starting role in next month's game after Boston's Rajon Rondo sustained a season-ending knee injury.
The coach of the Eastern Conference team will make that decision, and Scott believes Irving is worthy.
``I think it would be great,'' Scott said, ``but it doesn't change my message to him for next year: to get voted in as a starter instead of being selected as a reserve.''
Irving's heroics helped the Cavs (13-32) string three wins together for the first time this season. With a win on Tuesday at home against Golden State, they will have their first four-game winning streak since 2010, when LeBron James did everything for Cleveland in his final season for the Cavs.
In scoring at least 30 points in all three games, Irving joined James, Bernard King, John Drew and Kevin Durant as the only players in league history to record three straight 30-point games before his 21st birthday. Irving will turn 21 on March 23.
Irving was at his best in the fourth quarter last week, averaging a league-high 11.7 points and making all 10 of his free-throw attempts. In the final three minutes, he averaged eight points and went 7 of 7 from the line.
On Saturday night, Irving drained his long 3-pointer over Alan Anderson with 0.7 seconds left to finish off the Raptors. It was the fifth game-winning shot of Irving's brief career and his second with one second or less remaining in 85 games.
According to STATS LLC, Irving and Tyreke Evans are the only two players since the 2002-03 season with two such game winners.
During Cleveland's recent road trip, Scott told Irving he was being too passive at times and needed to be more assertive on the floor. In the past week or so, Irving has turned up his game. He scored 19 points in the first quarter against the Celtics.
``He understands we need him to be aggressive from the time he steps on the floor until the time he comes out of the game,'' Scott said.
Newly acquired guard Wayne Ellington has only played two games with Irving, but has already seen enough to realize his teammate is a special player.
``He's got it, whatever it is, he's got it,'' said Ellington, who came over in a trade from Memphis with center Marreese Speights. ``He's a great talent and he's only going to get much better.''
NOTES: The Cavs said center Anderson Varejao was ``recently'' released from The Cleveland Clinic, where he was being treated for a blood clot in his right lung. Varejao, who is out for the remainder of the season, became ill following surgery to repair a torn quadriceps muscle. He was seen at the team's training facility on Monday as he rehabs from the operation. Varejao will be on blood thinners for several months.

Plaintiff Attorney: Dacia C Cocariu, Esq.
Sills Cummis & Gross
Defense Attorney: Kirk P. Tzandies, Esq
Yvonne Lewis, J.
Defendant Van Brunt Properties, LLC (Van Brunt) and defendant Sutter Avenue Management, LLC (Sutter) collectively move for an order, pursuant to [*2]Civil Practice Law and Rules (CPLR) §602(a), to consolidate the foreclosure action of Citibank, N.A. v Sutter Avenue Management, LLC., Midwood Lumber & Mill Work, Inc., et al. (Index No. 354/10), into the foreclosure action of Citibank, N.A. v Van Brunt Properties, LLC, et al. (Index No. 3523/10). Upon consolidation, the defendants seek an order, pursuant to the doctrine of collateral estoppel, declaring that this court's March 4, 2011 order in the Van Brunt action is equally binding on the Sutter action. The defendants further move for equitable relief in the Sutter action based on their assertion that Citibank acted unconscionably and in bad faith during the protracted period of settlement negotiation. Finally the defendants seek an order terminating the temporary receivership imposed on the Sutter property.
Citibank cross-moves for an order striking all references to conduct and statements made during settlement negotiations, including a pre-negotiation agreement (signed by all three parties), which together form much of the basis of the defendants' claims for equitable relief, in the Van Brunt action under CPLR § 4547. Citibank also cross-moves, pursuant to CPLR §1018, to substitute Wells Fargo as the plaintiff in the Van Brunt action, and, pursuant to CPLR §3025, to correspondingly amend the case caption. Finally, Citibank cross-moves for an order clarifying the portion of this court's March 4th order which requires Van Brunt to commence making monthly payments to Citibank.
Background and Procedural History
Sutter is the legal and equitable owner of premises located at 529 Sutter Avenue in Brooklyn. On October 29, 2007, Citibank entered into a mortgage loan in the principal amount of $2,610,000.00 with Sutter. Van Brunt is the legal and equitable owner of premises located at 252-254 Van Brunt Street, also in Brooklyn, which is encumbered by a mortgage in the amount of $950,000.00 financed by Citibank, dated March 21, 2007. Roland Dib is a managing member of both Sutter and Van Brunt. Both the defendants began to have difficulty meeting their mortgage obligations and assert that attempts were made in late 2008 and early 2009 to negotiate with Citibank for a modification of the interest rate so that the requisite payments could be made. The defendants assert that they expended substantial sums to attract new tenants to the properties.
Commencing on July 1, 2009, Van Brunt failed to make its required monthly payments.. Citibank contends that on December 16,2009, it notified Van Brunt that it was in default and advised that if the default was not cured, Citibank reserved its right to exercise all of its rights and remedies. Citibank initiated a foreclosure proceeding against Van Brunt on February 5, 2010.On August 9, 2010, Citibank moved for summary judgment on its foreclosure action against Van Brunt and sought dismissal of Van Brunt's answer and affirmative defenses and the appointment of a temporary receiver. Van Brunt cross-moved for an order determining that Citibank was not entitled to: any interest on the principal balance of the mortgage loan, late charges, advances, attorneys' fees, prepayment penalties, commissions and all other costs and expenses. On October 15, 2010, Citibank transferred all interest in the note and mortgage, as well as the other loan documents, to LSREF2 Nova Investments, LLC ("Nova"). On December 10, 2010, all interest in the note and mortgage , together with the other loan documents, were transferred to Wells Fargo. On June 24, 2011, Citibank moved to substitute Wells Fargo into the action as the plaintiff.
In an order dated March 4, 2011, this Court denied that branch of [*3]Citibank's motion seeking the appointment of a receiver, and denied without prejudice that branch of the motion seeking substitution and for summary judgment. The order granted Van Brunt's cross motion to the extent of ordering that Citibank is not entitled to any interest from the date of the alleged default to and through March 31, 2011 and found that Citibank is not entitled to any default interest or expenses, including attorneys fees and prepayment penalties. Van Brunt was directed to pay the principal and interest due under the loan commencing on April 1, 2011. In addition, it was directed to pay to Citibank by April 1, 2011, the principal only from the date of default to March 31, 2011, which would be applied to the reduction of the principal.
As regards Sutter, beginning October 2009 it failed to make its required monthly payments under the mortgage. By letter dated December 16, 2009, Citibank maintains that it advised Sutter that it was in default and that failure to cure could result in Citibank exercising its right to accelerate the indebtedness. On February 5, 2010, Citibank filed a separate foreclosure action against the Sutter property. On February 24, 2010, a receiver was appointed to manage the Sutter property.On May 26, 2011, Citibank moved for summary judgment on its foreclosure action and to dismiss Sutter's answer and affirmative defense. On October 15, 2010, Citibank transferred all interest in the note and mortgage, as well as the other loan documents, to LSREF2 Nova Investments, LLC ("Nova"). On December 10, 2010, all interest in the note and mortgage , together with the other loan documents, were transferred to Wells Fargo. On April 11,2011, Citibank moved to substitute Wells Fargo into the action as the plaintiff.
The defendants move to consolidate the Van Brunt and Sutter actions arguing that both actions involve common questions of law and fact and arise from the same facts and circumstances and assert the identical legal theories and defenses, in accord with the direction of §602(a) of the CPLR. If successful on the issue of consolidation, the defendants then seek an order, pursuant to the doctrine of collateral estoppel, declaring that this court's March 4, 2011 order in the Van Brunt action is equally binding on the Sutter action. The defendants further move for equitable relief in the Sutter action based on their assertion that Citibank acted unconscionably and in bad faith during the protracted period of settlement negotiation. Finally the defendants seek an order terminating the temporary receivership imposed on the Sutter property.They further contend that the resolution of both cases will involve the same documents and witnesses and thus, such overlap, necessitates consolidation to avoid unnecessary costs, delays and inconsistent judgments. Finally, they contend that there would be no prejudice to Citibank if the actions were consolidated arguing that both actions are in the same pre-discovery stage.
The defendants assert that Citibank treated the two mortgages as a package from the moment of default, noting for example, that Citibank alleges that it notified both properties of default on the same day and that all renegotiation' efforts were done with both properties and as a package. The defendants note that every transfer of the property – October 15, 2010 to Nova and December 10, 2010 to Wells Fargo – was packaged as well. They argue that both of the defendants' theory of the case is that foreclosure should be denied due to the bad faith and unconscionable behavior of Citibank throughout the course of said joint negotiations. They allege that they were jointly induced [*4]to make substantial personal investments in the respective properties at issue, based on an implied promise by Citibank that this show of good faith on the defendants' part would result in a renegotiation of both mortgages, thereby avoiding default. The defendants conclude that the substance and legal theories of both cases are identical, will require the same testimony and evidence to be presented to the court, and should therefore be consolidated to avoid unnecessary costs, delay and inconsistent judgments.In opposition, Citibank argues that Van Brunt and Sutter are foreclosure actions filed separately by Citibank on February 5th, 2010 against two different commercial borrowers, namely Van Brunt Properties LLC, et al. and Sutter Avenue Management, LLC, et. al., each of whom holds a mortgage on a distinct property. They further point out that the circumstances under which each loan was made, the loan documents, and the defaults differ from one another. Moreover, Citibank avers that the receivership status and procedural posture of each case differs. Citibank maintains that consolidation should be denied inasmuch as the two actions do not have the requisite common issues of law and fact. Citibank also argues that it would be prejudiced by consolidation since consolidation would delay the resolution while both actions were aligned with one another. Finally, Citibank claims that the defendants are only seeking consolidation in an attempt to obtain a more favorable outcome, noting that there was no motion for consolidation until, this court's ruling favorable to Van Brunt in the Van Brunt action.
Section 602(a) of the CPLR gives a court discretion to consolidate actions where common questions of law or fact are present. Consolidation is preferred where these commonalities exist, absent proof that consolidation will prejudice a substantial right of the party opposing the motion (Best Price Jewelers.Com, Inc. v Internet Data Stor. & Sys., Inc., 51 AD3d 839 [2008]; Beerman v Morhaim, 17 AD3d 302 [2005]; Progressive Insurance Co. v Vasquez, 10 AD3d 518, 519 [2004]; Zupich v Flushing Hosp. & Med. Ctr., 156 AD2d 677, 677 [1989]). Further, consolidation is appropriate where it will avoid unnecessary duplication of trials, save unnecessary costs and expense, and prevent an injustice which would result from divergent decisions based on the same facts (see Zupich, 156 AD2d at 677). The defendants assert that their respective actions raise identical factual and legal issues, that the two properties have been dealt with as a package since they defaulted, that there will be little delay as the result of consolidation, that there would be no substantial prejudice to the plaintiff and therefore consolidation is required. The plaintiff does not dispute that the two properties were dealt with as a package during the period of renegotiation of their mortgages, but opposes the consolidation of these actions primarily on the ground that substantial prejudice would result from the delay that such a consolidation would cause. It avers that each action has an independent mortgage related to a separate and distinct parcel of land, that consolidation will unduly and additionally delay resolution and that the defendants' motion is an attempt to forum shop in order to get a more favorable outcome in both actions
Absent a showing of prejudice to a substantial right the existence of common questions of law or fact justifies the grant of a motion for consolidation. (Lamboy v. Inter Fence Co., 196 AD2d 705, 601 N.Y.S.2d 619 (1st Dept.1993).However, a delay which would prevent a trial from taking place for "some time to come" has justified the denial of such a motion, Mulligan v. Farmingdale Union Free School District No. 22, 133 AD2d 617, 519 N.Y.S.2d [*5]725 (2d Dept.1987). In the instant actions, there are, as the plaintiff suggests, different procedural postures but these differences are not likely to cause such a delay as would substantially prejudice the plaintiff. The plaintiff does argue that it will be so prejudiced, but the arguments consist of conclusory self-serving statements that prejudice would occur if consolidation were ordered. The plaintiff suggests that there will be a delay "while the actions [are] brought in line with each other." The major delay , appears to be caused by the appeals this Court's March 4, 2011 Order, and the appeal of the instant motion, regardless of the out come. The plaintiff's counsel says, "[t]rying to bring these actions in line with each other, so that they can proceed together, would only create undue delay and confusion, allowing defendant to prolong the proceedings and avoid judgement to Plaintiff's severe prejudice." Counsel does say not how the plaintiff is prejudiced nor what the prejudice is. There is no showing of prejudice to a substantial right of the plaintiff. "[A] and mere delay of the trial is not a sufficient basis upon which to deny a motion for consolidation or a joint trial (see Alsol Enters., Ltd. v. Premier Lincoln—Mercury, Inc., 11 AD3d 494, 783 N.Y.S.2d 620; Zupich, 156 AD2d at 677)." (Whiteman v Parsons Transportation Group of New York, Inc, et al. 72 AD3d 677, 900 N.Y.S.2d 87 ( 2d Dept 2010)
" Although a motion pursuant to CPLR 602 (a) to consolidate two pending actions is addressed to the sound discretion of the trial court, consolidation is favored by the courts in serving the interests of justice and judicial economy (see, Zupich v Flushing Hosp. & Med. Ctr., 156 AD2d 677). As both actions clearly involve similar issues of fact and law, it [would be] an improvident exercise of discretion to deny consolidation…." (Flaherty v RCP Assoc., 208 AD2d 496, 616 N.Y.S.2d 801,[ 1994]). In the case at bar, there are issues, with regard to whether the plaintiff and or its assigns have acted in good faith, which necessarily must be decided prior to a determination of whether the foreclosure of the defendants' properties should go forward.These actions arise from the same factual events, involve virtually identical legal theories and defenses; they feature nearly the same principal parties. " Where common questions of law or fact exist, a motion pursuant to CPLR 602(a) to consolidate … should be granted absent a showing of prejudice to a substantial right of the party opposing the motion (see Mas—Edwards v. Ultimate Servs., Inc., 45 AD3d 540, 845 N.Y.S.2d 414; Perini Corp. v. WDF, Inc., 33 AD3d 605, 606, 822 N.Y.S.2d 295; Nationwide Assoc. v. Targee St. Internal Med. Group, P.C. Profit Sharing Trust, 286 AD2d 717, 730 N.Y.S.2d 349).
Collateral Estoppel
The defendants seek an order, pursuant to the doctrine of collateral estoppel, declaring that this Court's March 4, 2011 order in the Van Brunt action is equally binding on the Sutter action. They urge the utilization of the doctrine of issue preclusion which is part of Collateral Estoppel. In order for a court's ruling to be dictated by the decision made in a prior action under the doctrine of issue preclusion, "the identical issue necessarily must have been decided in the prior action and be decisive of the present action, and second, the party to be precluded from relitigating the issue must have had a full and fair opportunity to contest the prior determination" (Kaufman v Eli Lily and Co., 65 NY2d 449, 455 [1985]; Allied Chemical v Niagra Mohawk Power, 72 NY2d 271, 276 [1988]. When a court decides whether issue preclusion applies in a given case "the party seeking the benefit of collateral estoppel bears the initial burden of demonstrating that an issue in the present litigation is identical to an issue decided in the prior determination" (Lewis v City of New York, 17 Misc 3d [*6]537, 544 [2007]. The defendants further move for equitable relief in the Sutter action based on their assertion that Citibank acted unconscionably and in bad faith during the protracted period of settlement negotiation and that Citibank treated Van Brunt and Sutter identically during the course of said negotiation. For which reason, the defendants believe that Sutter is entitled to the relief granted to Van Brunt in this Court's March 4, 2011 order.
Citing Halyalkar v. Board of Regents of the State of NY, 72 NY2d 261,268, the plaintiff, argues in opposition, that collateral estoppel is inapplicable unless the matter has been "actually litigated" The plaintiff's counsel buttresses Citibank's argument with a reminder that the actions "involve, among other things, different loan transactions and different parties. Most notably, the Sutter Loan Documents and the circumstances of Sutter's default have never even been before this Court." In sum, the argument is that collateral estoppel cannot be applied herein because there has been no actual litigation of the foreclosure in the Sutter action. Halyalkar,defines actually litigated' as follows: "To satisfy the identicality requirement, the question must have been actually litigated and, therefore, it must have been properly raised by the pleadings or otherwise placed in issue and actually determined in the prior proceeding." Halyalkar, supra at 261.
This Court's March 4, 2011order in the Van Brunt action was issued after consideration of the papers and after oral argument on several motions which were before the Court. The motions and cross motion were before the court on March 4th and they were heard together. The plaintiff's motions sought a temporary receiver, substitution and summary judgement on the foreclosure. The relief requested was denied with express permission to re-file both as to substitution and summary judgement. The motion for a temporary receiver can be made anew at anytime during the course of the proceeding where new facts arise. The defendants cross motion sought equitable relief; the plaintiff responded with opposition and oral argument was heard on the motion. The March 4th Order resulted from a full presentation by the parties on the issues before the court. As relevant to the collateral estoppel, the order addresses the behavior of the parties in that action and the consequences of that behavior with regard to the period following the "default" and renegotiation efforts made by the parties. It is not a permanent determination with regard to the foreclosures of the subject properties, rather it is the imposition of an equity equalizer put in place in recognition of the fact that Citibank and its assigns, as determined on papers and after oral argument, did actively prolong these proceeding with such lack of good faith as to require that they should forfeit any interest that would have otherwise been owning to them under the terms of the agreement they had with the borrowers. All of the renegotiation efforts were made with both Van Brunt and Sutter and at all the same times and places. Citibank had a full and fair opportunity to contest the prior determination; the issues were actually litigated in the Van Brunt action. In as much as the behavior of the lenders in the Van Buren action were identical, both in substance and in time, to the behavior of the lenders in Sutter, this Court cannot see how any different outcome for the Sutter action can fail to be an inconsistent result and a waste of judicial resources.
Finally the defendants seek an order terminating the temporary receivership imposed on the Sutter property. This Court is without sufficient information to make a determination as to wether or not the temporary receiver should be removed. Upon consolidation, and in as much as the papers are already before the Court, defendant Sutter may request a [*7]conference/argument with the plaintiff on the appropriateness/lack of need for the receiver.
Citibank's Cross Motion.
Citibank cross-moves for an order finding that all conduct and statements over the course of settlement negotiations entered into between Citibank and the defendants, including the pre-negotiation agreement signed by all three parties, be ruled inadmissable in the Van Brunt action, pursuant to CPLR § 4547. Citibank also cross moves for an order seeking to substitute Wells Fargo as the plaintiff in the Van Brunt action and that the case caption be amended accordingly. Finally, Citibank cross-moves for clarification of two rulings contained in this court's March 4, 2011 order.
In opposition to Citibank's cross motion, the defendants argue that the cross motion and opposition papers should not be considered as such submissions were untimely and defective. On the issue of timeliness, the court notes that CPLR §2215 pertinently provides that "[a]t least three days prior to the time at which the motion is noticed to be heard, or seven days prior to such time if demand is properly made pursuant to subdivision (b) of rule 2214, a party may serve upon the moving party a notice of cross-motion demanding relief, with or without supporting papers . . ." Here, the defendants motion was served upon the plaintiff on April 6, 2011. The cross motion was not served until June 20, 2011, a full seventy-five days later.
The defendants further argue that the plaintiff's papers are defective and should not be considered by the court. Specifically, it is argued that the papers are defective because they are submitted in reliance upon an affidavit of Marisa K. McGuaghey, who describes herself as an "authorized representative of Hudson Americas LLC" and bases her authority to submit her affidavit on behalf of Wells Fargo pursuant to an undated, uncertified copy of a Limited Power of Attorney. A power of attorney presented to the Court must be an original or a copy certified by an attorney, pursuant to CPLR §2105. Section 2105 of the CPLR states, inter alia, that "an attorney admitted to practice in the court of the state may certify that it has been compared by him with the original and found to be a true and complete copy" (see Security Pacific Nat. Trust Co. v Cuevas, 176 Misc 2d 846 [1998]). Here, there is nothing in the record indicating that the plaintiff's attorney has performed this comparison (see Lasalle Bank N.A. v Smith, 26 Misc 3d 1239A [2010]; United States Bank Natl. Assn. v White, 22 Misc 3d 1112A [2009]; U.S. Bank Natl. Assn. v Bernard,18 Misc 3d 1130A [2008]). Additionally, the court notes that the fact that the limited power of attorney is undated is a further defect (see Ameriquest Mortgage Co., v Basevich, 16 Misc 3d 1104A [2007]. Based upon the foregoing, the court finds that the plaintiff's papers are defective and therefore will not address the merits, or lack thereof, of the plaintiff's cross motion.
This constitutes the decision and order of the court.

Toronto Neighborhoods • Financial District
Financial District Pictures
The Financial District is a business district in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, within the downtown(pics) core. It is the main financial district in Toronto, and is the financial heart of Canada. It is bounded roughly by Queen Street West to the north, Yonge Street to the east, Front Street to the south, and University Avenue to the west, though many office towers in the downtown core are being constructed outside this area, which will extend the general boundaries. Examples of this trend are the Telus Tower, and RBC Centre. It is the most densely built-up area of Toronto, home to numerous banking companies, corporate headquarters, high-powered legal firms, insurance companies and stockbrokers. In turn, the presence of so many decision-makers has brought in advertising agencies and marketing companies. The banks have built large office towers, much of whose space is leased to these companies. The bank towers, and much else in Toronto's core, are connected by a system of underground walkways, known as PATH, which is lined with retail establishments making the area one of the most important shopping districts in Toronto. The vast majority of these stores are only open during weekdays when the financial district is populated. During the weekend, the walkways remain open but the area is deserted and the stores are closed. It is estimated that 100,000 commuters enter and leave the financial district each working day. Transport links are centred on Union Station at the south end of the financial district, which is the hub of the GO Transit system that provides commuter rail and bus links to Toronto's suburbs.

The Health and Counseling fee is $180.00 per regular semester. This fee is assessed to undergraduate students enrolled in 6 or more credit hours and graduate students enrolled in 9 or more credit hours. Students not assessed this required fee, e.g., undergraduates taking under 6 credit hours and graduates under 9 credit hours, may access all regular Health and Counseling Services by paying the $180 per regular semester fee. Summer students may access Health and Counseling Services since all fees are rolled into the regular summer credit hour fee. Office visits are offered at no charge. Some services, e.g., laboratory, medical supplies/procedures, will incur a minimal fee.
Students who currently pay no health fee:
*Requirements for immunizations must be met before utilizing Health Services regardless of any of the above scenarios.
*Students who are pregnant will not be treated in Health Services. They will be referred to their primary physician, obstetrician, urgent care center or ER for care.
In the summer, students not taking classes but registered for the previous and following semesters may use Health Services if the requirements for immunizations, as stated above, have been met. A $10 fee per visit will be charged. The student is responsible for any other charges incurred. All charges are billed to the student's account as "Health Services" and are due upon receipt of service.

Computer Science (2002-2003)
Admission | Courses | Program | Requirements
Department Chairperson: Kathleen Neumann
Graduate Faculty
Associate Graduate Faculty
The Department of Computer Science offers a Master of Science degree. The program emphasizes technical and professional education that integrates academic course work with extensive projects. The program is designed to have the flexibility to provide academic and professional preparation for industrial careers as well as the pursuit of higher degrees. The program integrates the theoretical with the practical by combining academic technical preparation in core areas and depth areas as well as a number of elective areas. The program is also designed to accommodate students with B.A. and B.S. degrees from other majors wishing to pursue a master's degree in computer science.
All students must meet the general admission requirements of the School of Graduate Studies. The Departmental Graduate Committee will evaluate undergraduate work at the time a student seeks admission to the program. Students entering this program should normally have received their undergraduate degree in computer science. Other students may be admitted, at the discretion of the Departmental Graduate Committee, but may have to remedy deficiencies in their undergraduate preparation by taking courses for nondegree credit.
The chairperson of the Departmental Graduate Committee serves as a student's adviser during the first semester. After completing nine semester hours of course work acceptable for the graduate degree, and prior to the completion of 15 hours, students will complete the Degree Plan for the School of Graduate Studies. The Chairperson of the Departmental Graduate Committee will approve an advisory committee when the Degree Plan is approved.
Each graduate student's advisory committee will consist of three full-time faculty members. For those students under the Thesis or Project Plans, the chairperson of the student's graduate committee will direct the thesis or project research, and the remaining members will share responsibility with the chairperson for final approval of the written research document and for conducting an oral examination over the project or thesis.
The Department of Computer Science offers three plans by which the Master of Science degree may be earned.
Plan 1, the Thesis Plan, requires 27 semester hours of course work and six hours of research. The final written thesis will be a formal document describing the research and will be prepared in accordance with requirements of the School of Graduate Studies.
Plan 2, the Project Plan, requires 30 semester hours of course work, and three hours of directed study research. A final written report on the research project is required.
Plan 3, the All-Course-Work Plan, requires 33 semester credit hours of course work.
In the All-Course-Work Plan, the chairperson of the student's graduate committee will normally be the chairperson of the Departmental Graduate Committee; students can petition the Departmental Graduate Committee for a change of chairperson.
If a student requires no remedial computer science course work, a total of 33 semester hours is required for the master's degree in computer science. The hours are distributed as follows:
Thesis Plan
Project Plan
All-Course-Work Plan
The successful completion of a final oral examination covering the research project or thesis, when those plans are chosen, is required to graduate.
A variety of programming languages and software packages are used at the graduate level. Graduate students are expected to have the ability to immediately learn these languages and packages as needed for their programs.

I-380 northbound was closed for a period today as Pennsylvania State Police reconstructed Tuesday night's fatal van wreck.
One person was killed and six critically hurt in the wreck when the van rolled over and hit a tree around 8 p.m. Tuesday. The wreck happened between Routes 940 and 423 and that's where police are working today.
Traffic is slow through the area this afternoon.
The van, headed from New York City's Chinatown to Binghamton, N.Y., was traveling north at 8:05 p.m. when it left the west berm in Coolbaugh Township and hit the median, according to police.
The impact caused the van to partially overturn and hit a tree. Several of the van's occupants were trapped and had to be freed from the vehicle, a 2012 Mercedes Benz Sprinter operated by Universal Bus Travel Inc. of Syracuse, N.Y.
The crash forced the closure of the highway between Tobyhanna and Mount Pocono for more than four hours. The crash occurred as road conditions turned treacherous as freezing rain swept over parts of the Poconos.
One occupant of the vehicle was pronounced dead at Geisinger Community Medical Center. That person has not been identified.
The driver and passengers were taken to Geisinger, Pocono Medical Center and Moses Taylor Hospital.
EMS units from Pocono Mountain Regional, the Tobyhanna Army Depot, Central Pocono and Suburban responded. Fire companies from the Tobyhanna Army Depot, Pocono Summit and Coolbaugh Township also responded.
The driver of the van was identified by police as Jiayuan Liang, 22, of Brooklyn, N.Y.

In a goaf-oriented society, Ronald Grzywinski's goal is unique: to make Chicago's South Shore National Bank the nation's first successful neighborhood development bank.
This is the only bank in an area which, until 15 years ago, was one of Chicago's most desirable lakefront communities. Today, property fronting on Lake Michigan should still be prime real estate, but it hasn't been since the neighbor-hood began to "turn" in the mid '60s. The area is now more than 80
percent black.
The former management of the bank "equated racial change with economic deterioration," notes chairman of the board Grzywinski, a white-shirted conservative dresser but a progressive thinker who has a need to be involved in work that he considers socially redeeming. A doer, not a sitter, he gestures and
shifts around restlessly in his chair as he talks about the community and his objectives for the bank which he bought three years ago with the help of churches, foundations, and businesses.
"We bought the bank primarily to demonstrate that development and profitable operation are not irreconcilable," he explains. "When we came here, we literally stood on street corners and said, 'The neighborhood is getting better; it's

I am really enjoying your work which I discovered through the NY Times and have passed on to a co-worker who is also a Mets fan. I live in Southern California and I am always amazed at the number of Mets fans I see when I go to a baseball game. Speaking of which, I'm going to one tonight. YaY!ReplyDelete
BTW...I just noticed the number 8. I assume that's for Gary Carter? When did you start adding that to your work?
Tuli Reno
I started to add the # 8 in honor of Gary when he started treatment for cancer in support of him. He has such a great spirit. As fans of the game he needs to know we are here for him.ReplyDelete
Great stuff, found this through the NY Times as well. Do you ever sell some of the art? Would love to add to my office decor!ReplyDelete
Very good game. Timely hitting.ReplyDelete
I like what I saw from Parnell in 2 innings of relief.
And Bay ain't afraid of no wall no moe (that was a lil scary for a sec when he ran back to snag that fly ball).
Get well soon Reyes! Tejada got your two hits last night!
I do hope Reyes is back tonight although I have no problem if they give him extra rest.
Side note : Like the poster above I love the Gary Carter additions (and we are all here for you Gary), as well as your tribute to Bill Gallo.
Mr. Gallo was the best. Like many, I loved seeing his work, his perspective on things. He will be missed.
Amazing that you actually met him and he had such a great influence on you. I wonder if that had never happened would we still be here enjoying your Mets sportReport. You never know, ya know?

Mets fan for life (meaning over 40 years now), and it's not always easy! Love your stuff, and the #8 is a wonderful touch. Keep it coming.ReplyDelete

Also found this from the Times, and it is my first destination in the AM. Thanks and keep up the good,no, make that great work.ReplyDelete
Let me know how I might obtain an original.
I also found your blog through the times and your art work is amazing. how you present each game is also. i'm currently doing research in korea, and i actually found an america sporting his mets gear last weekend during the subway series!ReplyDelete
Just curious - what size sketchpad do you use to do these drawings?ReplyDelete
I do all of these in a 5x8" Moleskine notebook. Last year I used the 2.5 x 3" one but there weren't enough pages in case they made the playoffs.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJuly 6, 2011 at 2:36 AM
I also read of your work in the New York Times, and love it. Got to ask: are you publishing these at some point, or selling original copies?ReplyDelete
I will be publishing soon.ReplyDelete
Doing 3 Mets in one drawing is pretty damn good....and on a 8 by 5 inch pad no less. Bravo! I knew immediately who each player was, no small feat.ReplyDelete
This is just awesome!ReplyDelete

I Think I'll Be Ok Lyrics
You keep saying you've had enough and I know just how you feel. You keep it all inside and it's nipping at your heels. It's eating you alive, I can see it in your stare. I'd sit with you all night, if I thought you'd even care. I've lost track of who I was some time ago. I thought I'd figured out which way to go. Now I hate to say, but the only thing that's keeping me alive is you. You're only thing that's keeping me alive. I can't say your name but I think I'll be ok. I've had it up to here with your morbid ways. You're happy being sad and you prove it everyday. You don't want to see the less polite side of me. Just say your prayers and close your mouth. Start curbing what comes out. If you can't find another way to feel important that can't be drank or snorted, then don't call me up to say hello. I don't want you around when I get home.

When are single-pole circuit breakers with identified handle ties permitted to be used for the protection of ungrounded conductors for line-to-line connected loads?
- never
- only for multi-wire branch circuits
- for 3-wire direct-current circuits
- for line-to-line lighting loads
Answer: C
A fourth requirement was added to Sec. 240.15(B) in the 2011 NEC. This new section states, "Individual single-pole circuit breakers rated 125/250VDC, with identified handle ties shall be permitted as the protection for each ungrounded conductor for line-to-line connected loads for 3-wire, direct-current circuits supplied from a system with a grounded neutral where the voltage to ground does not exceed 125V."
