EYEBRONCO: Click here to watch TEAM RAMBIS VS. TEAM BRANDI
Click here to watch the latest Bronco Weekly Sports Wrap ...
Note: Both teams are in action on their respective fields this weekend. The men's basketball team host the annual Red & White Scrimmage on Saturday and the women's soccer team hosts Gonzaga at 11 am on Sunday.
A couple weeks ago during an EYEBRONCO production meeting, what started as "whatever you can, I can better" banter got serious and the first EYEBRONCO VERSUS was born. Two of Santa Clara's most prominent alums, Kurt Rambis '80 and Brandi Chastain '91, were right in the middle of it from the start.
EYEBRONCO reporters and Santa Clara men's basketball team members, John McArthur and Denzel Johnson, along with the rest of their team, are huge FIFA soccer fans. After some friendly banter about what was harder at the end of a game, a penalty kick or a free throw, McArthur and Johnson challenged fellow EYEBRONCO reporters and women's soccer team members Lauren Matheson, Cali Reis and Paige Robertson to a penalty kick-free throw competition. The five then went back to their teams and they all jumped at the idea!
Prior to starting the competition, both sides brought in their own experts. Bronco volleyball junior and EYEBRONCO reporter Ali Rambis invited her Dad, Kurt Rambis, to give the women's soccer team a few pointers at the charity stripe. After introductions, the school's leading scorer and four-time NBA champion, Rambis talked to those competing about shooting free throws and then watched them practice.
"It was awesome meeting and being coached by a Bronco legend – Kurt Rambis," said Matheson, a co-captain of the No. 19 Bronco women's soccer team. "It was a great experience to spend some time with him in the gym and we all had a lot of fun."
Robertson and Reis were both thrilled about the opportunity to work with a legend like Rambis "He was very patient in trying to teach us to shoot free throws," said Robertson. "It was such a wonderful experience!"
Reis added: "It was an amazing opportunity to meet and be coached by such an amazing former Santa Clara player. Not many people can say that!"
The men's basketball team wasn't to be outdone with their own celebrity coach. They went out to Stanton Field (Santa Clara's practice field) in search of Brandi Chastain. Chastain made probably one of the most famous penalty kicks in soccer history to lead the USA to the 1999 Women's World Cup.
Chastain, now a volunteer assistant coach with the women's soccer team, was more than happy to lend a hand to the cagers. She spoke to them about making penalty shots, including "if you put it on the frame of the goal, you have a chance to win."
"Brandi Chastain was great," said Johnson. "She told us the most important thing to do is clear your mind and have confidence."
Trasolini loved the opportunity to work with a legend like Chastain on the soccer field and said she told them to "go either power or finesse and just aim for a side." She also told Trasolini he would be a good soccer player.
Team Rambis , the women's soccer student-athletes, and Team Brandi, the men's basketball student-athletes, were now ready for action. Both teams shot penalty kicks first at Santa Clara's soccer practice field, Stanton Field, and then came inside the Leavey Center to shoot free throws. You have to watch the video to find out what happens …
Team Rambis included Aly Birgel, Sarah Jackson, Olivia Klei, Lauren Mathson, Cali Reis and Paige Robertson. Team Brandi included Marc Trasolini, Yannick Atanga, Niyi Harrison, Denzel Johnson, John McArthur and its own secret weapon, Nate Kratch.

Mangala / Angaraka / Kuja / Chevaai
|Sanskrit Transliteration
|Mangala loka
|Om Mangalāya Namaha
In Jyotish astrology, Mangala (Devanagari: मंगल, Maṅgala) is the name for Mars, the red planet. Mars is also called Angaraka ('one who is red in colour' also called Rakta varna whose color is like blood [1] or Bhauma ('son of Bhumi') or Bha in Sanskrit.[2] He is the god of war and is celibate. He is considered the son of Prithvi or Bhumi, the Earth Goddess. He is the owner of the Aries and Scorpio signs, and a teacher of the occult sciences (Ruchaka Mahapurusha Yoga).
He is painted red or flame colour, four-armed, carrying a trident (Sanskrit: trishūla), mace (Sanskrit: gadā), lotus (Sanskrit: Padma) and a spear (Sanskrit: shūla). His mount (Sanskrit: vahana) is a ram. He presides over 'Mangala-varam' (Tuesday).[3]
Once when Lord Shiva was engrossed in deep meditation (Sansrit: samādhi) upon his abode, Mount Kailash, three drops of perspiration originated from his forehead and fell down on the earth. From those drops manifested a very beautiful infant, who was of reddish complexion and who had four arms.
The child was handed over to the earth goddess, Bhumi for upbringing by Lord Shiva. The child was named Bhauma as he was nurtured and brought up by 'Bhumi' (earth).
When Bhauma grew up, he went to Kashi and did a tremendous penance to please lord Shiva. Lord Shiva blessed him by granting him 'Mangala loka' (the Abode of Mangala), which was superior even to the 'Shukra loka' (the Abode of the god of Venus - Shukra). The same Bhauma is established in the solar system by the name of Mangala (planet Mars).[4]
In astrology
In Vedic astrology Mangala is considered a malefic of the first order. He rules over the signs Mesha (Aries) and Vrishchika (Scorpio), is exalted in Makara (Capricorn) and has his fall in Karka (Cancer). The Sun, Moon and Jupiter are all considered friendly to him, while he is hostile to Mercury. Venus and Saturn are neutral. Mangala represents drive and physical energy, self-confidence and ego, strength, anger, impulsiveness, heroism and adventurous nature. Mangala rules over blood, muscles and bone marrow. He is associated with battle, war and soldiers.
Mangala is the lord of three nakshatras or lunar mansions: Mrigashīrsha, Chitra and Shravishtha or Dhanista. Mangala has the following associations: the color red, the metal brass and gemstone red coral. His element is fire, direction is south, season is summer.

What follows is a short list my wife, Joyelle, and I compiled while overseas for two weeks in Ireland at the end of last month. It contains direct word differences between what people in the United States generally call things and what the Irish call them.
Disclaimers: For the most part, these are just preferences; it's not that the Irish word is never heard in the States and vice versa. Also, I understand that many of these are not specific to Ireland, and may also be common in the UK and elsewhere in Europe.
United States – Republic of Ireland
fries – chips
chips – crisps
speed bumps – ramps
shrimp – prawns
line – queue
gas – petrol
trash – litter
GPS – sat-nav
tires – tyres
newspapers – newsagents
bar – pub
cookies – biscuits
candy – sweets
ATM receipt – advice slip
take-out – take-away
passing – overtaking
vacation – holiday
for rent – to let
restroom/bathroom – toilet
bus – coach
check (like in a restaurant) – bill
bill (like for your cable TV) – license
"Great!" – "Grand!"
"Thank you very much!" – "Thanks a million!"
"That is interesting!" – "Brilliant!"
In a related story, no one said "Top of the morning" to me the whole time we were over there, and that was horribly disappointing.
So what do you think? Are there any we missed?

Since yesterday the 15-inch version of the Surface Book 2 is available in Germany (and in other markets too.)
I took a look at the latest member of the Surface family and will share my first impressions on the bigger Surface Book 2 in this article. In November, I already wrote about my impressions on the 13.5-inch version of the Surface Book 2. You can find the article here.
The Surface Book 2 looks and feels similar to the original Surface Book. The 15-inch version is simply a bigger Surface Book which is actually not a bad thing. I am huge fan of the look and feel of the aluminum body of the device.
While the 15-inch version is full of power it is actually quite light. Especially the 15-inch tablet part is very light when detached from its base. The standalone tablet is big and it will take its time to get use to holding a 15-inch screen in the hands. Nevertheless, creatives should enjoy working with the Surface Pen and the Surface Dial on this huge tablet screen. Looking on the screen with a resolution of 3240×2160 pixels just makes fun. Colors look awesome on the device and I really have to say that I am in love with the displays of both the 13- and the 15-inch versions of the Surface Book 2.
By increasing the size of the screen, Microsoft also had more space for the keyboard. Sadly, this extra space hasn't been used. The trackpad hasn't been increased in size and is not as big as the one on the 15-inch MacBook Pro. I am a bit disappointed to see all the empty space on all sides of the keyboard. Microsoft should have increased the size of the trackpad or added more keys to use the extra space.
While this is of course something Microsoft should improve the keyboard itself is amazing. Typing on the Surface Book 2 is a pleasure and it offers me one of the best typing experiences I can think of.
Of course I was not able to test the performance and the battery life of the device. From my first impressions I can definitely say that the 15-inch Surface Book 2 is an impressive piece of hardware. Especially the display is excellent. Additionally it offers a good typing experience. I can only criticize that Microsoft hasn't used the extra space next to the keyboard. It would have been great to get a bigger touchpad or additional keys. I hope Microsoft will find a better usage for the empty space with the next generation of Surface Book.
Summing up, the bigger Surface Book 2 is a device that offers a tremendous amount of features and is basically capable of everything.

Chadwick Boseman will lead his own solo franchise starting next year, but a connection to Black Panther and Wakanda appears to have been revealed for Avengers: Infinity War. Boseman previously debuted the current Wakandan king in Captain America: Civil War, and it will be his solo film that is the final MCU installment before the mega team-up. To this point, there has yet to be any indication that Black Panther will heavily set up Infinity War, but that does not mean that the timing isn't perfect for the projects to connect in some way.
Backstage has revealed a casting call for stand-in roles on Infinity War. The listings are for a female with a dark complexion between the ages of 20-49 with a shaved head, as well as for multiple African-American males between the ages of 21-49. With Black Panther recently wrapping, this may be evidence of Wakanda and Black Panther on the Infinity War set.
The female description could be a match for Danai Gurira's Okoye, but could also be for a variety of different actresses. The looks for Lupita Nyong'o's Nakia or Letitia Wright's Shuri have not yet been made public and the age description does not help narrow a search. In either instance, this casting call confirms that audiences will see much more of Wakanda shortly after Black Panther ends. As for who this stand-in will be for, it may only be future set photos or celebrity sightings that indicate the other cast members who will be joining Infinity War.
One of the male stand-in roles is surely for T'Challa, but with multiple roles being requested, it could point to other Black Panther cast members also appearing. Will Erik Killmonger turn good and allow Michael B. Jordan to reprise his role? Or, could this call be for Sterling K. Brown or Daniel Kaluuya? These are all options, but so is the possibility the other stand-in roles are just for background actors and extras. Again, it will be up to future reports to reveal who exactly will feature in these scenes.
With Black Panther's world set to be integrated into Infinity War, it shows just how massive this film will be. Earth as a whole will already be at stake, and with Asgard, the rest of the cosmos, and now Wakanda at the Russo brothers' disposal, there will be hardly any time to rest during the film's runtime.

Statistics from Altmetric.com
In England and Wales, the rate of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) has had a near eightfold decline, from 2.3 deaths per 1000 live births in 1988 to 0.3 in 2009.1 Most of this decline can be attributed to the 'back to sleep' campaign in 1991 which led to a 75% drop.2 From 1995, part of this fall could be attributed to the introduction of the classification of some deaths as 'unascertained'.3 This has led to concerns being raised.
In 2004, a report of a working group convened by The Royal College of Pathologists and The Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health chaired by Baroness Helena Kennedy recommended that deaths should no longer be recorded …

In 2006, the ISA decided to create a scholarly reference for our discipline, a work comprising a series of literature review essays (refereed and approximately 10,000 words each) for the myriad topics in our expansive field. These essays, which review the intellectual history of scholarship on topics of international studies, are rigorous, comprehensive, and neutral in tone, detailing fruitful lines of research up to the current "state of the art," and describing prior dead-ends. As such, the essays provide an invaluable resource for students and scholars new to a particular area of research who need an overview that maps the existing scholarship in a useful way. The Compendium continues to grow with new and updated essays added annually.
The Encyclopedia, formerly the Compendium Project, had three components:
The International Studies Encyclopedia (ISE), the print version, was published in 2009 and features A-to-Z format. It is available for purchase by libraries from Oxford University Press.
International Studies Online (ISO), available to all ISA members and to all libraries that purchase an annual subscription from OUP, includes all the essays in the ISE plus approximately 20 new or updated essays each year. It is searchable by keyword. Further development of the Compendium will include enhancement of online essays with links to archives, datasets, cases, pedagogical
aids, discussion boards, and other relevant materials.
International Studies Compendia: Section Volume Series (ISC), suitable for individual purchase and course adoption, are selections of new and updated Compendium essays. ISA sections have the opportunity to propose such volumes.
Compendium history compiled 2010.
When it was suggested that the ISA consider the creation of an
encyclopedia project, most people were thinking of a traditional work
filled with short descriptions of terms relevant to international
studies. This format was not particularly exciting. Academics don't
tend to consult such works, and generally frown upon their use by
students. On the other hand, the creation of a series of essays that
review the literature in important topic areas might be of real
interest. A repository of information about the development of our
thinking on a given issue, the status of the current literature, and
possible future directions, would be of significant use to students,
professional scholars, and those who might wish to understand
international studies in a sophisticated manner. We are seeking to
create the fundamental reference resource in international studies.
The ISA's Governing Council placed two constraints upon the
project. First, it must not be divisive. Its creation must not become
the terrain for substantive, methodological or ideological battles.
Second, the project must not put the Association in financial
jeopardy. The ISA was not to incur debt at any point.
A number of publishers were interested, but the proposal that best
met our needs came from Wiley-Blackwell. The project would be allotted
between 4 and 4.5 million words – roughly 6,200 to 7,200 pages, under the founding General Editorship of Robert Denemark. With
space for hundreds of entries in the range of ten thousand words each,
we would be able to solicit manuscripts on 'mid-range' issues. (Smaller
or perhaps even longer essays will be considered if necessary.)
Instead of suffering through the competition that would result from
having room for only one entry on 'the politics of trade', we can
solicit essays on issues that include 'trade and protection' and 'trade
and underdevelopment' and 'war and trade'. There is enough space in
this project for the full range of issues to be exercised from a
variety of perspectives.
The adoption of review essays in the ten thousand word range also
allows us to set high standards of scholarship. The ISA considers this
project to be on a par with its journals, and each manuscript will be
peer reviewed. This is important because it will assure quality and
will allow those essays accepted to take their legitimate place on the
CVs of their authors. Unlike traditional encyclopedia entries, many of
which are paid for, these longer essays will be more sophisticated,
have a more serious analytical content, and serve as a scholarly
We believe these essays will be of significant use. Undergraduates,
and especially graduate students, will be able to review the literature
far more effectively than is possible by reading the latest text, or
the last half-dozen articles on a given topic. Those of us preparing
to teach in new areas will be able to quickly review the range of
literature and its most current manifestations. Scholars looking into
new research areas could acquire a sense of the issues that have been
covered, and the way in which they've been considered, in an efficient
manner. Those outside the academy might also find such essays to be of
significant interest as matters considered by scholars become relevant
to public policy and debate.
Who would write such review essays? Most of us already have.
Laboriously prepared dissertation literature reviews are the first
thing that must be jettisoned when reorganizing manuscripts for
publication as monographs or sets of articles. The work that went into
them often goes unappreciated. The expertise acquired over years of
study by hard-working scholars may be translated into syllabi, but the
careful consideration of the development and current status of a given
literature may never see publication. Yet even junior authors who
publish literature reviews for International Studies Review or
in various handbooks, yearbooks and volumes of reconsiderations, are
acknowledged as leaders in their areas, setting the agenda for future
No single editor or small team can bring together a set of essays
that encapsulate all of international studies, but the ISA is uniquely
suited to doing so. With over 20 substantive sections, we have a
ready-made structure for the organization of such a project. Each
section has been asked to contribute. The section-driven lists of
topics will be reviewed and augmented, when necessary, with
solicitations to those who might provide unique perspectives. The
project is also to be critical in nature. Each section will be
encouraged to offer an essay on the questions that are being ignored or
underrepresented. Along with the on-line version of the project we are
going to create an on-line discussion forum so that individuals may
respond to the essays. This project should be the start of a set of
valuable conversations about where we have been, where we are, and
where we might be headed.
The first goal of the Compendium Project is to have each section
generate a list of topics to be considered. These should be
substantially complete, and some authors should have been identified,
by our 2007 meeting in Chicago . One year after that we should have
generated the manuscripts for review. In a total of three years we
want to bring the project to market. Revenues generated by IS On-Line
or The International Studies Encyclopedia in excess of the advance
Blackwell provided to cover the costs of production will go to the
Association for use in the support of professional activities by our

The inspiration for this quilt came from Amy at Diary of a Quilter. I saw her quilt a couple years ago and without following a pattern, I started making blocks on paper foundation to use some scraps. For the longest time, I had 10 blocks stashed away in a drawer.
Then in January I finished the remaining blocks, pieced the top, sandwiched and quilted it, and attached the binding.
I am especially happy with the quilting, though I need to figure out a better way to turn the corners with the feathers!
|Second time doing feathers!
For the back, I used a bright orange print that I got in the flat folded, discount section of my LQS for a ridiculous price. No one else saw that gem... It's been in my stash for a while, waiting for the perfect project. Isn't it great?
|No shortage of snow to use as background here...
I love looking at the quilting on the back. even though the fabric is busy, the light yellow thread I used really highlights the quilting!
For the binding, I chose an orange gingham-type print. I have used it once before to bind a quilt and sadly, that is pretty much the end of it :(
I saved the hand stitching for my recent trip to Ontario, knowing I was going to be spending some time in an airplane... I only had one side to do when I dropped by my guild's sew in to hang out with my quilty friends.
|Quilt roll before the wash...
|Quilt roll after the wash
Only today, when I looked up the link for Amy's original quilt, did I realize she had also used a bright orange backing and some lighter orange for the binding... I guess great minds think alike.
|Snow half way up the fence... This is late Winter in Eastern Canada
Today was a perfect day for pictures. Still tons of snow, lots of sunlight, and a temperature just below zero (Celsius).
So the only two thing that are left to do on that baby is to find it a home and a name. What should I call this, and where should it live? It is the right size for a baby quilt (approx 40"x40"), but I find it a little too stiff. One of my guild mate remarked that it could be a table topper. What? I guess she is right, but It would never occur to me...
Hope your month of March is off to a good start!
Linking up to Let's Bee Social hosted weekly by Lorna at Sew Fresh Quilts.

Bears our illnesses – who & when?29-03-2017 - Posted by Andre Piet
A visitor of the GoedBericht site sent a question about curing and a text in Isaiah 53. In the mail the following was raised:
In the parish I visit the focus lies on proclaiming the healing of those who are ill. Sometimes Isaiah 53: 4 is referred to, which says that He (Jesus) Himself bears our illnesses. Matthew 8: 16 and 17 refers to this. Also in the parish I visit several people can witness of healing by God in their lives. Of course it is beautiful, but others remain ill, in spite of (many) prayers and they are not cured. I see it more often, miraculous healings in the name of Jesus, but by far not for everyone who prays for it. What is your opinion from the Scripture and do you view the text in Isaiah? How do you interpret it? I am curious about that.
First, let's pay attention to the text in Isaiah 53:
3 He is despised and shunned of men, A Man of pains and knowing illness, and, as a concealing of faces from Him, He is despised, and we judge Him of no account. 4 Surely He Himself bears our illnesses, and our pains, He is burdened with them; as for us, we account Him assaulted, Smitten of Elohim and humbled.
Isaiah 53 is a prophesy about the Messiah who would be despised and shunned of men, but later He will be recognized by them. Isaiah 53 are the words which will be spoken by the people of Israel in the future. 'We judged Him of no account… He Himself bore our illnesses… we accounted Him assaulted…' The 'we' and 'our' in this chapter are the countrymen of the 'man of sorrows'. The people of Israel! We don't need to explain the words 'He Himself bears our illnesses' ourselves, for it is directly explained in Matthew 8:
16 Now, evening coming on, they bring to Him many demoniacs, and He cast out the spirits with a word, and all those who have an illness He cures, 17 so that may be fulfilled which is declared through Isaiah the prophet, saying, He our infirmities got, and the diseases He bears.
While, during his walk in Israel, Jesus cured everyone who came to Him, according to Matthew, Isaiah's prophesy had been fulfilled. The bearing of our illnesses doesn't speak of the present time, but of Jesus' ministry when he was in de midst of his people. There he bore their illnesses and cured all. Those who, relying on Isaiah 53, defend that Jesus is wanting to cure everyone who is ill, makes a double fallacy. Isaiah 53 speaks (a) only of Jesus' ministry to the ill people of Israel and (b) in the past tense that he was on earth.
Sometimes one objects with the words of Peter (1 Peter 2: 24):
Who Himself carries up our sins in His body on to the pole, that, coming away from sins, we should be living for righteousness; by Whose welt you were healed.
Does the welt with which Jesus was beaten, guarantee healing for us? No, we have to realize that Peter being 'apostle of the circumcision' (Galatians 2: 7), just as Jesus during his walk on earth, was dedicated to the people of Israel. As confirmed in the opening sentences of his letter ('to the chosen expatriates of the dispersion'; 1 Peter 1: 1). It is not a general letter, though it has that reputation. But even more important is, that in this verse Peter doesn't point to the healing of illnesses, but to the healing of deviation. That is the explanation of Peter himself:
For you were as straying sheep, but now you turned back to the Shepherd and Supervisor of your souls
-1 Peter 2: 25-
The use of Isaiah 53 to claim curing of illnesses today, ignoring the house of Israel, is completely inappropriate. And that brings me to the second part of the question: How is it possible that some are cured and some are not?
Let us remember that healings do happen everywhere. With or without medical treatment or medication. Evangelical and Pentecostal churches cannot take a patent on it. Also miraculous healings, without any medical explanation, can be found everywhere. In my view, especially for believers it is a natural attitude to take (miraculous) cures into account. Is anything too difficult for Yahweh? But the 'Pentecostal doctrine' that cure would be promised and therefore can be claimed, is a serious misconception. The way they conclude it from the Scriptures is inappropriate and careless (such as for example Isaiah 53) and many are hit with utter disillusion.
And worse, alienated from GOD. They aren't cured and lose their faith in prayer. Therefore, how important is it to be healthy in understanding the Scriptures and to discern what really matters.

A member of the Public Policy and Government Relations Committee shared this article, "Patient's Arrest for False ID Reminds CEs To Review Police, Validation Procedures," found at https://aishealth.com/archive/hipaa1015-01.
The first half of the article focuses on a case of a hospital calling law enforcement when a patient presented with a false ID – in this case a fake driver's license. The second half of the article discusses broader issues of how providers might respond to such circumstances and highlights requirements under HIPAA and EMTALA. We have highlighted some of the text below. This is definitely worth a read. What are your policies on this issue?
The HHS Office for Civil Rights (OCR) is investigating whether a Texas clinic acted appropriately following the arrest of a patient, RPP has learned. The woman, who is not a U.S. citizen, was taken into custody while waiting to see her doctor for allegedly presenting a fabricated driver's license; she has not been charged with violating immigration laws.
OCR spokeswoman Rachel Seeger told RPP the agency is "reviewing the news report(s) to determine our authority under both HIPAA and civil rights laws to take action in the matter."
The incident involves Blanca Borrego, 44, who was handcuffed and removed from an obstetrician-gynecologist's office, part of Memorial Herman Health System of Houston, in front of her two daughters. Court documents show Borrego, a native of Mexico, spent 12 days in jail charged with a felony prior to her release on $35,000 bail.
To date, officials with Memorial Hermann, a nonprofit organization that includes 13 hospitals, have not admitted to any wrong-doing nor apologized. They stated that while they did call the local sheriff's office, they "did not ask" for Borrego to be arrested.
The officials acknowledged that "what happened to the patient is unfortunate" and that the Sept. 4 incident, which caused a national furor among immigration rights organizations and others, provides them "an opportunity to evaluate our processes."
Law Enforcement Issues Are Tricky
Other HIPAA covered entities (CEs) may wish to do the same in light of this situation, which pits policies for working with law enforcement and for thwarting identity fraud against the need to render care while complying with HIPAA, other federal laws and state regulations.
Memorial Hermann officials have not commented beyond a statement issued on Sept. 15 that described the actions that occurred prior to the arrest and referred to the situation as "a unique event in Memorial Hermann's history." They also would not answer any questions submitted by RPP.
The statement refers to Borrego by name. Among the questions Memorial Hermann did not answer was whether it had Borrego's permission to discuss her situation. Failure to obtain consent to discuss a patient by name led to the imposition of a corrective action plan and a $275,000 payment by the owners of Shasta Regional Medical Center two years ago (RPP 7/13, p. 1).
According to Memorial Hermann's statement, the arrest was at the discretion of "local law enforcement," which became involved only after Borrego "presented potentially false identification" at the clinic.
Borrego "was unable to provide another valid form of identification and in an effort to verify the authenticity of the suspicious driver's license, the office then called the licensing bureau of the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS)," Memorial Hermann officials say in the statement. "DPS instructed our staff to contact local law enforcement to validate the driver's license number. This inquiry confirmed a false identification. Local law enforcement took this information and made the decision to arrest the patient."
The statement adds that clinic officials "did not ask for this individual to be arrested" and "did not press charges."
Memorial Herman does not "ask patients about residency or immigration status nor do we report an undocumented patient to law enforcement. To be clear, this incident has nothing to do with immigration or residency status," the statement says.
"What happened to the patient is unfortunate," the statement concludes. "We also appreciate the sensitivity of this matter. As such, we consider this an opportunity to evaluate our processes." Which processes are at issue was not addressed, and, as noted, the system would not respond to any of RPP's queries.
'Medical Care Should Take Precedence'
In an interview, Clarissa Guajardo, Borrego's attorney, tells RPP her client never got to see her doctor and that if the medical staff had problems with the materials she provided to prove her identity,that should have been dealt with afterward.
Guajardo says she has not seen what Borrego presented and thus could not say whether falsification or fabrication was involved. But she stresses that she believes Borrego was mistreated by the clinic staff, who she says were instructed to keep Borrego waiting until arresting officers could arrive.
"Certainly her medical care should have taken precedence over law enforcement activities," Guajardo says. She is exploring whether staff were permitted under HIPAA to contact law enforcement in this situation and whether they violated any Texas privacy laws.
Borrego's arraignment is scheduled for Oct. 20. Guajardo is hoping a grand jury declines to indict her client or that any charges, if they are brought, will be of a lesser nature. Borrego's visa expired a dozen years ago, according to numerous reports.
RPP spoke to several health care experts to get their take on the incident and, generally, to clarify how HIPAA's provisions related to law enforcement apply to a case of this nature.
Even years after the privacy rule went into effect, sharing information with law enforcement remains a complicated area for hospitals and other CEs because of the interplay of state laws and the fact that some types of reporting is voluntary, meaning the protected health information (PHI) can be shared, while in some cases under state law it must.
In addition, providers may feel intimidated or threatened into providing more information or assistance than they're comfortable with, or than is allowed.
In 2013, a New Mexico jury awarded a man $1.6 million in compensation for having been forced to undergo a colonoscopy and other medically unnecessary procedures ordered by judicial officials; local police suspected the man was hiding drugs in his body but none were found (RPP 12/13, p. 1).
Hoping to clarify some of these issues for both health care providers and law enforcement officials as they have a "shared responsibility," the Oregon Association of Hospitals and Health Systems developed a 27-page report, "HIPAA and Law Enforcement: Guidelines for Release of Protected Health Information." This was published in 2012 and updated in 2013.
While this provides information related to Oregon state law as well as HIPAA, CEs regardless of their location may find it useful because it contains three flow charts to help providers know how to respond when law enforcement officials request PHI, when disclosures are mandatory, and when they are voluntary. It also has a series of questions and answers that address situations CEs face. (See https://tinyurl.com/ob7c8oj.).
"A hospital's first obligation to all patients is caring for their medical needs. When a patient is also involved in a criminal investigation, either as a suspect, witness or victim, that obligation remains the priority," the Oregon guide states. "Law enforcement officials, however, also have an important job to do that often involves seeking access to patients, their medical information or other evidence held by the hospital."
CEs will not find much to go on under HIPAA as to whether they are asking for too much information when trying to validate a patient's identity. "HIPAA generally is silent about specifically requesting identification from patients," says Becky Williams, a former nurse who chairs the Health Information Technology/HIPAA Practice Group at Davis Wright Tremaine LLP. But "[v]erification of identity is consistent [with] best practices to prevent medical identity theft," adds Williams, who is based in Seattle.
Conversely, HIPAA does "recognize the need to verify the identity of a person requesting protected health information," Williams says. She recommends that providers who have a question about the identity of a patient they're treating "keep records of the patient separate until it can be confirmed that the patient presenting actually is the individual he or she claims to be."
"This may help avoid 'polluting' the medical records of an identity theft victim," Williams points out.
Among the factors to consider are whether –– and when –– CEs should contact law enforcement. One relevant provision in HIPAA is §164.512(f)(5) Permitted disclosure: Crime on premises, which states that a CE "may disclose to a law enforcement official protected health information that the covered entity believes in good faith constitutes evidence of criminal conduct that occurred on the premises" of the CE.
"Some folks take the position that if someone is knowingly presenting false documents that may result in fraud or identity theft, this represents a crime on premises," says Frank Ruelas, principal and founder of the consulting firm HIPAA College. "As such they use this as a basis for a disclosure –– using minimum necessary –– to law enforcement."
It also would not be unthinkable to conclude that patients who are undocumented and admit to being in the United States illegally are committing a crime on premises. But CEs making such a call need to be aware of how this scenario would play out, particularly if it went public.
In addition, health care providers who are providing any services with federal dollars –– such as through Medicare or Medicaid, which is virtually all of them –– are not permitted to discriminate against individuals based on their ethnicity, gender and other characteristics.
This is specified in the Civil Rights Act, which OCR enforces for health care purposes, and in the Affordable Care Act. A Brooklyn hospital recently agreed to a settlement with OCR over allegations it violated the civil rights and the ACA, following a discrimination complaint filed by a transgender patient (RPP 8/15, p. 1).
Emergency Care Cannot Be 'Interrupted'
Faced with a patient who may be committing a crime or meet other categories for which HIPAA permits notification to law enforcement, CEs must consider timing and whether care should be interrupted.
For example, the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA) regulation, applicable to emergency services, "requires that individuals be provided a medical screening exam," Ruelas explains. But, he adds, "EMTALA is clear that no processes, such as insurance verification, eligibility, etc., should delay the receipt of care by an individual who presents at the dedicated emergency department."
However, EMTALA does not apply to the provision of non-emergency care.
"A regular medical practice [is] not required to work for free, and if the patient is engaging in medical identity theft, for example, then the practice probably won't get paid," says Jeff Drummond, a partner with Jackson Walker, LLP, in Dallas. Drummond stresses that he is not commenting on this case in particular.
One option if the patient is in an outpatient setting is to refer him or her to a free clinic or other provider. Ruelas says staff could ask if the patient "feels he or she has an 'emergent condition,' then we can call 911 and have them taken to an emergency department."
This is not an ideal situation, Ruelas acknowledges, but says "this has worked in the past" and makes sense "[g]iven all of the moving pieces that are involved with people without insurance, the use of false IDs, the need to try to obtain information for payment of services, the need to create correctly documented records of care, and that undocumented workers in these situations may not have coverage."
OCR issued a short guide regarding law enforcement (see box, p. 9). It is important to note that, in addition to HIPAA's federal requirements, under many state laws "mandatory reporting is triggered," Ruelas says. Often this relates to "injuries as a result of a crime or injuries related to gunshot wounds, knife wounds, etc.," he says.
If the patient is suspected, or confirmed, of being under the influence of an illegal substance, providers may contact law enforcement. "Typically if a person is suspected of being a danger to self or others, a report can be made" to law enforcement, adds Ruelas. "Many hospitals use this to alert police when a patient decides to leave against medical advice [and] is intoxicated. Because of the possibility that this person may try to operate a motor vehicle, this presents that basis for possible risk to others."
Suspected or confirmed abuse can also trigger reporting to law enforcement, says Williams.
I have worked as a pediatric nurse for years, so I will emphatically say all child abuse should be reported immediately," Williams says. "HIPAA permits reporting of child abuse and state law generally requires –– or at least permits –– good faith reporting of child abuse."
Regarding adult abuse, neglect, or domestic violence situations under HIPAA, "a provider may report good faith beliefs of abuse to government authorities that are in a position to address the issue," Williams says.
Reporting also occurs when required by state law, when a potential victim approves or is incapacitated and "the provider believes it is necessary to prevent harm." The government agency accepting the report is required to attest that "the information will not be used against the patient" and "that immediate enforcement activity depends on [obtaining] the information," she says.
Disclosures Must Be Entered in Logs
In addition, Ruelas reminds CEs that their "policies on how the staff is to respond" when law enforcement is involved should include "how this is to be reported both to authorities but also internally as well, such as to risk management or administration."
And, as the Oregon law enforcement guide notes, disclosures need to be logged for the patient to obtain later. "The HIPAA Privacy Regulations require a hospital to give an accounting of certain disclosures, including disclosures to law enforcement made without patient authorization, upon the request of the patient," it states.
However, there are also provisions that allow law enforcement to request a suspension of this "[a]ccounting for a time period specified by law enforcement if they provide a written statement that an [a]ccounting would be reasonably likely to impede the agency's activities and specifying the time for which such a suspension is required."

Fred Thompson campaign announcement set for Nashville
Could this be it:
Fred Thompson is set to announce that Nashville will be the home of his national campaign headquarters, WSMV is reporting.
Here's the news clip:
A source close to the campaign planning tells WSMV that that Thompson planned to announce his candidacy on the steps of the historic Fall School Building Tuesday, but Thompson campaign officials deny that Tuesday's announcement is an official run for the White House.
The source tells WSMV report says that the Thompson campaign has obtained the lease for that building to turn it into a national campaign office.
"Everything's in place for tuesday," the source told WSMV. "There are three major events built around his announcement." But Bob Davis, the Tennessee Republican Party Chairman, and Thompson's former Chief of Staff says "There will not be an announcement Tuesday."
So, will he or won't he? We're getting closer to July which was rumored to be when Thompson would be officially announcing.

26 Feb It came from the Searches Volume 1
I'm on a plane from Vegas – after nerding out at the Digital Signage Expo. It's a full circle, having been christened into Digital Signage around 2002 with Graybow. Glasfire (3M's Vikuiti), if any of you remember. In any event, this short 50 minute jaunt from Vegas to Burbank gives me time to write a quick blog.
Matt Stratton turned me on to Clicky Stats awhile ago, and through Clicky, I'm able to see what web searches come up with my blog as a result. I also see when these searches lead them to my blog – but then they leave because they didn't find the answer. I thought since the search engines think I already have it on my site, perhaps I should. Below is a sampling of the search queries that my website supposedly already has the answers for. So, I present to you:
It came from the Searches, Volume 1.
dnx-36 firewire 400 and bandwidth requirements DNX36
Yes, DNxHD36 (aka DNx36) can certainly work through a firewire400 pipe. DNxHD36 runs at a 36mbps, while firewire400 has a theoretical max of 400mbps. This makes firewire400 a fine choice as a transport for DNx36 offline workflows.
29.97 and dnx36
This is a source of confusion for many Avid users, and I'm in the process of authoring a blog on this. DNxHD36 is a "family" according to Avid. While the "36" label refers to the data rate for 23.976 material, the DNxHD36 "family" codec can be applied to 29.97 material. This would be technically known as DNxHD45 (45mbps as opposed to 36mbps).
"episode engine" cpu restriction
This is kind of vague. Within Episode, you can assign priority of encodes and cpu usage. Quicktime already is pretty poor with processor usage to begin with, however.
Metafuze Lossy?
Yes. After all, you're transcoding from one codec to another – there will always be quality loss. In addition, DNxHD is a lossy codec – so, yes.
edit room day rate
This varies wildly. Depends what gear is in the room, what the room is used for (editorial, audio, finishing, color, etc.) your experience, and geographical location – and hell, what your rent is! Normally a reputable rental rate at a good facility would be a couple hundred bucks per hour or even much more. As a side note / soap box, don't sell out the rest of the industry by undercutting other facilities. Talent and experience are worth the money. That's a majority of what the client is paying for – not the gear. By undercutting everyone else, the industry is forced to adopt your lower rate as a standard, then everyone has to drop their prices. And the cycle continues. You're shooting yourself in the foot.
Does clipster support facilis
Clipster runs on Windows XP 64bit, which Facilis has a client for. Fibre is the best choice (Ethernet won't deliver the bandwidth needed), and it should be a recent version of Facilis software to enable file locking – volume locking will cause organization issues, but can be done.
convert red footage cluster setup
I wish I could do it better than these guys have:
fcserver script
Good luck. Most everything is manual at this point. Try CATDV as a more GUI based alternative.
QIO-PCIE sonnet tech
The QIO comes with either a PCIE host card or a E34 (Express slot) host card. Unveiled at NAB 2009, and finally shipping now! Mac only support for now. List Price is about $1000.
FTP, KiPro
Well, once the KiPro encodes to ProRes, you can certainly FTP the file – although it's gonna be huge. Your best bet is to offload it to a portable drive for transport or use a transfer solution like StorageDNA.
share msm database avid
I can only assume you'd like two or more machines to access the same Avid Database at the same time, in order to share media. Nope – the functionality you are attempting to do is achieved through Avid Unity, ISIS, and Interplay.
final cut server frontend
Final Cut Server (FCSvr) clients have a front-end based in Java; it looks the same on Mac or PC – and the administrator can restrict what functions a client can have. A popular alternative is creating a web page interface which ties into the database and media of FCSvr. The functions on thew web page are usually limited and typically only used for "review and approval" functionality. Several companies out there can create a custom web based interface – although it is far from cheap.
episode pro pro res 422
Yes, If Episode is running on a Mac, you can encode and decode into any of the flavors of "ProRes" (1 word). Decoding is only available (currently) on the Windows version.

The #1 Grey Hair Reversing Pill With Enteric Coating
(PRWEB) May 01, 2012
COORGA Nutraceuticals Corporation is pleased to announce it is now making Grey Defence® – The #1 Grey Hair Treatment Pill With Enteric Coating available for in-licensing. COORGA Nutraceuticals Corporation has identified 52 key countries in Europe, Asia and the Americas where it seeks in-license distribution partners.
Grey Defence® is a proprietary blend of vitamins, essential amino acids, antioxidants and enzymes that works by chelating and decomposing hydrogen peroxide in the hair bulb that bleaches and damages hair follicles. It also boosts key melanin producing compounds required by the body. Hydrogen peroxide is produced by the body's natural metabolic activities. Over time it accumulates due to aging and/or periods of prolonged stress resulting in hair follicle being bleached white while they grow (this is why US Presidents tend to go completely gray within a few short years of taking office). The final effects of prolonged usage of Grey Defence® (9 to12 months) is the complete reversal of grey hair.
This opportunity to in-license Grey Defence® is timed to coincide with the release of the second generation of the product scheduled for the third quarter of 2012. This second generation Grey Defence® features higher levels of actives and an innovative liquid-filled enteric coated capsule delivering almost 40 times the potency of the current version of Grey Defence®.
Ideal in-license candidates will have strong, established distribution capabilities, including but not limited to warehousing and channel-direct sales force calling on pharmacies, supermarkets, mass merchandisers and health food stores. Potential partners must be experienced and sophisticated Nutraceuticals in-licensees able to independently conduct their own market analysis to determine the potential for Grey Defence® in their local markets and not be reliant on COORGA Nutraceuticals to conduct such analysis on their behalf. In addition, in-licensing candidates must possess the financial capacity to purchase inventory to satisfy out-license contract terms.
About COORGA Nutraceuticals Corporation
COORGA Nutraceuticals is a company focused on developing products for the anti gray hair market. The company also operates the Grey Hair University blog; a resource for those looking for information on what causes gray hair.

I have been using an Easy Load Deluxe Balloon Apron from Twist Em Up for the last 6 months or so and really enjoy the fantastic design - in particular the easy load balloon strips. I have been dying to give it a go to try and make a similar one for a while and so with a rare child free morning I thought I'd give it a go!
I started with a couple of old jean legs I'd hacked off to make shorts last summer after the knees went! I'm glad I saved them (knew they'd come in handy!).
And to the Apron. I again up-cycled, this time with Dan's old work trousers. I had previously used the legs to make beanbags so they were coming in very handy! I cut out the back 'bottom' area in a rough apron shape, and also the pocket shown on the bottom right thigh area of the photo below which I thought may come in handy later!
This was positioned on top of my gorgeous Melody Miller Ruby Star Sparkle fabric - left over from the pin-board I made for Angharad and Matt's wedding last week.
You can see below how the balloons are kept in place with the velcro strips. It is such a clever design as each velcro can take up to 50 balloons but still keep them tightly in place when you are down to your last 5 or so.
Note: I used around 2m of velcro and half a pack of Heavy Duty Silver Nickle Snaps 15mm. Plus fabric remnants and old clothes!

Hard Rock Music Archives
Machine Head
Machine Head (1992-present): a Grunge band from Oakland, California, USA.
ounded by ex-Violence frontman Robb Flynn (vocals/guitar), Logan Mader (guitar), Adam Duce (bass/vocals) and Chris Kontos (drums), Machine Head helped to bring heavy metal into the 1990s kicking and screaming, as usual. With a vocal style alternating between Chris Cornell (ex-Soundgarden) and James Hetfield (of Metallica) they hit 25 in the UK with 'Roadrunner' with their debut Burn My Eyes (1994), especially since Kerrang! magazine declared them the best since Rage Against The Machine, with the Old track becoming a top 50 on the same charts onit's own. Covers of Poison Idea and Cro-Mags further bolstered the album.
Proving that no-frills, heavy-duty heavy metal was still a valuable commodity their follow-up The More Things Change (1997) made 16 in the UK, an album that featured Dave McCain (ex-Sacred Reich) replacing Kontos.
With Logan Mader replaced by Ahrue Luster, The Burning Red (1999) proved to be their best to date, getting 13 UK/88 US, despite their cover of the Police's Message In A Bottle; the band's attempts to expand their sound met with mixed critical and fan reaction. The follow-up EP Year Of The Dragon (2000) failed to do as well. Edging more into the so-called nu-metal direction, reaction to 2001's Supercharger was mixed and sales were disappointing (the unfortunate timing of the release, amidst the events of 9/11, contributed to a declinein sales). Hellalive (2003) saw Luster leave with no replacement, but their success was improving little, in turn leaving their career at a crossroads. Through The Ashes Of Empires followed in 2003 with a membership change with Phil Demmel (ex-Technocracy/ex-Torque/ex-Vio-lence) added on guitar; the album overall, an attempt to reverse their style to that of old and regain their lost ground.

Stretching is one of the most important steps we can take toward warding off age-related injuries and suffering from pain related to stress in the head, shoulders, neck, and back. It is currently recommended that we stretch on a daily basis to keep our muscles functioning properly. The biggest issue I've found working with women is that many are unsure how to stretch correctly.
Prescriptive Stretching written by Kristian Berg is a FABULOUS RESOURCE offering step-by-step guidelines on learning effective stretching. It helps you pin-point which muscles are causing specific pain and instructs you on how to stretch those areas properly.
Caution: Stretching takes patience and cannot be rushed! Regardless of your age or gender, stretching is one of the best exercises we can do to take care of the human body. Check out this book to learn the most effective strategy that includes excellent illustrations on "pnf" stretching.
This book should be available at most county libraries for inter-library loan with proper I.D. I'd love to hear any comments or suggestions for similar sources that you've found helpful. Enjoy!

This past weekend we ventured out to the Prince William County Fair. Andrew and I went to the Fair together when we first started dating over 3 years ago and we hadn't been since. This year we gathered our Larkspur crew and headed out to see the goats, rides, and motocross show. The motocross show was an extra $2 but it was worth it - they entertained the crowd very well! We saw some adorable baby lambs and goats and one guy was selling puppies that would get up to 100lbs! Andrew said I couldn't have a new puppy because it probably wouldn't be so cute when it was 100 lbs and chasing my 6 lb Maltese dogs around. I guess he had a good point. Then we watched the pig races - baby pigs running around a small track - so cute! I decided I wanted a pig to name Philbert. Again, Andrew shot me down!
Below are some pics I took at the Fair using my spiffy new camera. I'll need to upload the pics from my other camera as well as video from the motocross show later! Enjoy!

Distribution Technology for Delivery Today
It is with great excitement that we announce e-Courier has been acquired by Alpine SG ("ASG"), and we welcome the newest member of our team: our new CEO, Andrea Crane. ASG is a group of market-leading SaaS companies, backed by Alpine Investors, and in addition to their expertise in building great products, we were impressed by how they live up to their values of putting people first. Andrea joins us from Alpine and she looks forward to working with each of you.
Bruce Robinson and Phil Galdi are excited to continue on in a business we love and be part of this next chapter of growth. Phil will remain at e-Courier as Chief Revenue Officer and Bruce will remain as Chief Technology Officer
While you will notice minimal difference in the short term, interacting with the same people in the same manner as you always have, we hope you will gradually begin to see changes that you will appreciate – things you've asked for, like better communications systems and faster development. What we don't plan on changing is our responsiveness to your clients' requests and needs.
We consider this a big win for everyone – for us, for the rest of our team at e-Courier, and most importantly, for all of you and the people you serve. We look forward to having more systems, more discipline, and more resources behind us as we continue working to meet your needs.
e-Courier was the first company to provide an enterprise software solution for the package delivery industry available as a service. Today, our clients and their clients use that cloud-based expertise to manage their distribution businesses and to form tight connections with their trading partners.
See how you can expand your footprint, increase your visibility, and provide real time package tracking and chain-of-custody tracking by exploring the e-Courier offerings.
The cloud based e-Courier CMS package is a robust and proven enterprise distribution management solution. With on-line and app-based order entry, sophisticated API and EDI management tools, map-based dispatch and GPS tracking, real time ETA status updates, bar code label creation and scanning, on-line tracking and reporting, billing and receivables, and much more, you can tailor the system to meet your specific needs as well as those of your customers.
ecMobile is the industry leading app used by tens of thousands of delivery drivers each day as part of the e-Courier package tracking solutions. The ecMobile is a "smart" app in that it can be configured to present the driver with different options and menu choices based on who the customer is and/or what the package includes. ecMobile is currently available for Android, Apple/iOS, Windows Phone and Windows Mobile devices.
New in 2016, the eShip mobile app is intended for users of delivery services to be able to enter and track orders from their phone or other mobile device. eShip has sophisticated map-based tools allowing the user to see where their package is at any given moment, when it is estimated to arrive, and who is coming to pickup or deliver the package. You can also get alerts when the driver is a defined number of minutes away from the location, so you can be sure to meet them there.
The e-Courier system includes a comprehensive set of tools allowing you to create electronic connections with your trading partners. Whether true EDI 204, 214, 110 and 210 documents, or other electronic connections more specific to the client, we can accommodate the need.

Mark sent me your blog link so I am a new fan, amazing photos!!
Hurra hurra hurra!
I dag er Adams fødselsdag, hurra hurra hurra!
Han sikker sig en gave får,
Som han har ønsket sig i år
Med dejlig chokolade og kager til!
Now that I've gotten my "sing the first verse of 'Happy Birthday' in Danish" out of the way: today is Adam's birthday. He's now on an age with me, so no more cradle-robbing comments for about six months. Yesterday we went into town to do some errands and, prompted by a Facebook post, I had my camera with me – so, when we stopped for a snack/small dinner (a couple slices of pizza) and a drink, I was able to get video of one of Mussoorie's phenomena:
Any time you get a beverage which is carbonated, up here, the pressure is sufficiently different that it just exudes the straw: the blasted thing physically cannot stay in unless otherwise restrained (and, at the Tavern, they use a small slice of the citrus fruit that is the 'lemon/lime' to hold the straw down). Adam enjoys drinking his Coca-Cola from glass bottles, so he's given up on straws and just cleans the bottle really well. I am about to throw in the towel on straws at this altitude, because… well, watch the video. Imagine that happening after every. single. sip.
After Adam posted the 'Sea of Clouds' picture, I started realizing just how much it does seem that, sometimes, we are at the edge of the world in our mountain retreat. The Doon Valley will fill with clouds, the Sivalik Hills that form the other edge of the boundary are shorter than our range of the Himalaya (the Sivalik cap out around 1,200m/3,900ft; our house is at around 6,500ft). When the valley fills with clouds, and the day is overcast there, sometimes we can't even see Dehradun and the Sivalik – it can be nice up in Mussoorie, but if we go into Dehradun for an errand or two, we arrive and it's colder and rainy.
Here are a few pictures that will do a small comparison for the visibilities up here, so you can understand why we *know* there's more out there, and its absence can be a bit odd.
First: a clear(ish) day. You can see cloudlets dribbling through the middle of the photo.
Then, on one of our questionably-ill fated trips to the bank, we caught this neat view on our walk back.
And then, views from last night. Nothing we could do a precise comparison with – didn't think of it, sadly – but here's a terrible shot showing the employee housing, the side of our house, and the vacant top floor apartment!

Vice President Biden on Wednesday said even Ronald Reagan could not have avoided a primary if he were held to today's conservative standards.
Republicans are facing infighting between its right-wing Tea Party wing and more moderate side on several hot-button issues, including the federal budget and immigration reform.
Biden noted even Reagan, who is beloved by the right, would be a victim of their criticism.
"I'm going to be very blunt with you," Biden said in an online chat. "You see very conservative U.S senators…being primaried by these very people because they are not conservative enough. I mean Ronald Reagan wouldn't have passed the test they are applying now."
He also charged a minority of Republicans in the House with controlling the agenda and preventing the lower chamber from bringing up a vote on immigration reform.
Biden seemed to be alluding to Rep. Steve Stockman (R-Texas) — who recently announced a primary against fellow Texas Sen. John Cornyn (R) — when he said there is a group of Republicans holding the party to an impossible standard.
Stockman, the freshman Republican, has called for the impeachment of President Obama and has constantly released headline-grabbing statements critical of the administration.
The lawmaker said earlier this week he would primary Cornyn, a conservative Republican by many standards. Stockman had branded Cornyn a "liberal" and faulted him for not going along with Sen. Ted Cruz's (R-Texas) tacit to defund ObamaCare, which led to the government shutdown.
Biden said Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) is worried about his right flank so he will not bring up Senate-passed immigration bill.
The vice president said there is a core group of about 100 conservatives who "just do not want to see immigration. Period."
"They have not supported more immigration," he said. "And so right now they are the controlling voice."
Biden said it is obvious that the Senate immigration reform bill would pass the House, and again urged Boehner to take it up.
"It is really pretty basic…It is just pass the bill, John Boehner, Bring the bill up and let us pass it," Biden said. "There is a consensus."
Boehner has ruled out a vote on a comprehensive bill, but he has said immigration reform is not dead yet. He has argued for a piecemeal approach to the issue.

Rockbox mail archiveSubject: Re: ROLO / two-stage booting for rockbox
From: Justin Heiner (jheiner_at_yahoo.com)
Date: 2003-01-18
>Hi !
One way of implementing this is to simply create a seperate firmware that acts the same way that LILO does. You really don't have to even include it in the main Rockbox stuff. All it's doing is ROLO, so you would think that it would be very easy to create a seperate app.
It wouldn't need to handle anything with sound, just printing to the screen and doing ROLO. Once this is created, you probably never need to update it. Hell, when's the last time that a boot loader got many more features? :-)
This way, the people who want it could have it, and the people that don't want it dont need to have it.

What You Should Know About Payday Loans and Cash Advances
Fast cash Payday style loans or cash advances may not be the best solution for your short term cash needs.
How Payday Loans Work:
Specifics may vary from lender to lender, but in general, here's how they work:
- The borrower writes a personal check to the lender. The amount of this check is equal to a) the cash advance or payday loan plus b) interest and service fees charged by the lender.
- The lender gives the borrower the face value of the check (a in step one) minus the fees (b).
- The lender then holds the check until the due date of the loan. The due date is typically, but not always, the next payday for the borrower.
How Payday Loan Fees are Calculated
The fees on the cash advance (loan) can be based on increments of the money borrowed. For example: a fee of $15 for every $100 borrowed. They may also be a percentage of the face value of the check written by the borrower. The borrow can be charged additional fees if the loan is extended.
The federal Truth in Lending Act requires lenders to disclose the true cost of the loan. Lenders must provide in writing the finance charge ( service fee ) and the annual percentage rate ( APR ) before you sign the loan. The APR may vary, and is based on the length of your loan, the service fees, your interest rate, and the amount borrowed. You can calculate this APR using our calculator.
A Payday loan can be a very expensive financing tool. Let's say you borrow $200 for two weeks and you write a person check for $225, with the additional $25 being the fee to borrow the money. The lender agrees to hold your check for the 14 days. When that time comes, the lender deposits the check and $225 is deducted from your checking account. But if you roll-over the loan for an additional 14 days, another $25 service fee is added, so in 14 days, $250 will be deducted from your checking account. So you will have paid $50 to borrow $200, which equates to an annualized interest rate of 300% !
Alternatives to Payday Loans
A payday loan may not be the best option for your situation. Consider these alternatives.
- Consider joining a credit union. Small short-terms loans may be possible using cars or other property for collateral, or your own personal credit. Requesting a cash advance on your credit card at 21% is high interest, but still considerably less than the payday loan or cash advance.
- If you take a payday loan or cash advance, shop online for the lowest costs. Compare the finance charge (service fee) and APR, which includes interest and other credit costs. Look for the lowest overall APR. If you are in the Military, you receive special protections against unreasonably high fees or rates. But all consumers in most states have some degree of protection which limits interest rates and fees.
- Despite protections payday loans are expensive debt. If you roll-over the loan the actual cost of the borrowed funds could be double the amount lended. Taking the time to search for other credit offers may net you lower costs.
- Contact your loan servicer, or creditor, as soon as you realize you are having difficulty making payments. Most will will work with consumers and give an extension on your bills if they believe you are acting in good faith.
- Contact a credit counseling service to help create a personal budget or to work out a debt repayment plan with creditors. There are non-profit groups in every state that offer credit counseling to consumers at no cost.
- Gather your daily and monthly expenses and make a realistic budget. Plan for your spending needs and avoid unnecessary purchases. Small every day items like coffee or newspapers add up. Commit to set aside a small amount for savings each week, even $5 will add up and help with emergency or rainy day expenses. Saving the fees on a $200 on a six month payday loan, for example, will create a significant buffer against needing the loan in the first place.
- Obtain overdraft protection for your checking account. This is NOT a loan, but it will help protect you from checks being returned to creditors and create further problems. Shop around for the best terms on overdraft protection, ask the cost per item and what it covers, or for how long.
The bottom line on payday loans is that if you must use one, pay it back quickly. Do not allow it to roll over and increase your costs, and budget, budget, budget.
The FTC provides information to help consumers spot, stop, and avoid fraudulent, deceptive and unfair business practices in the marketplace. Complaints can be filed at https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/ or to get free information about consumer issues and protection visit http://ftc.gov/
You can contact the consumer protection agency in your area for more information on state or local protections for cash advance and payday loans. You may also consult the GSA Consumer Action Handbook at www.consumeraction.gov. And state offices are listed at: www.consumeraction.gov/state.shtml
