City Attorney Wins $450,000 Settlement From Nursing Home Accused of Patient Dumping
The Los Angeles City Attorney's Office has reached a $450,000 settlement with a South L.A. nursing home alleged to have illegally discharged homeless patients.
The settlement announced June 28 followed allegations that Avalon Villa Care Center at 12029 S. Avalon Blvd. failed to properly discharge homeless patients while failing to meet certain quality-of-care standards.
"Patient dumping is inhumane and must be stopped," said Los Angeles City Attorney Mike Feuer, in a statement. "Leaving the most vulnerable patients to fend for themselves is unacceptable."
Under terms of the settlement, prosecutors say the Avalon Villa Care Center has agreed to pay $450,000, including $350,000 to train and hire staff familiar with homeless discharge and quality-of-care protocols, and $50,000 to help house homeless patients. It must also comply with numerous health care conditions.
By law, it is illegal to dump patients in Los Angeles. The city attorney has settled seven patient dumping cases, while securing nearly $4 million in settlements from defendant hospitals.

We know it's a challenge to attract millennials to the E&S workforce. As a recession-hardened bunch, they err on the side of wariness, so it's important to be transparent with them. Not only that, company culture is important to them, too.
Here are a few stats about what they're looking for ‒ and how you can improve.

Western Geographic Science Center
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD),
in cooperation with the Mexican Instituto Nacional de Estadística Geografía e Informática (INEGI), have
developed a joint project to create Internet-enabled geographic information systems (GISes) that will help
cities along the United States-Mexico border manage issues related to urban growth and low-income housing
HUD defines colonias as rural neighborhoods within 150 miles of the border that lack adequate infrastructure
or housing, as well as other basic services. The colonias typically have high poverty rates, making it difficult
for residents to pay for roads, sanitary-water and sewer systems, minimum-standard housing, street lighting, and
other services. Colonias are scattered along the border as makeshift settlements, commonly on private land.
Because these settlements have been established outside the formally sanctioned governance of nearby cities and
towns, colonias residents have traditionally struggled to gain access to the public services available in those
This joint project delineated colonias, developed geospatial databases describing infrastructure and land
use, and established a framework for distributing World Wide Web-based GIS decision-support systems for the
sister-city areas. "Sister" or "twin" cities are those communities where a city in one country borders a city
in another, creating a large urban area separated by administrative boundaries.
To develop the GIS databases, we integrated data from The National Map (USGS), the U.S. Census Bureau, and
INEGI and worked with binational partners, including Federal, State, county, and town representatives, as well
as interested youth and advocacy groups. Each Web-based mapping site incorporates common-base data layers,
including transportation, digital orthophoto quadrangles (DOQs), digital raster graphics (DRGs), Landsat imagery,
colonia boundaries, hydrography, demographics, and geographic names.
The USGS is now working with Arizona State University (through a Southwest Consortium for Environmental Research
and Policy (SCERP) grant) and the University of Arizona, and this project is expanding

Sends prices crashing down.
Despite the ongoing confusion surrounding the failed Draft 802.11n standard an ever growing number of manufacturers are releasing kit based on it. Buffalo, D-Link, and Netgear have so far all done so with varying degrees of success but now an unlikely fat cat has thrown its hat into the ring: Dell.
The world renowned producer of PCs-in-any-colour-so-long-as-it's-grey has announced it will soon begin selling an internal wireless mini card capable of supporting the current next gen (non) draft. It promises the 'Dell Wireless 1500 Draft 802.11n' will have maximum data rates of up to 270Mbps which naturally compares very favourably with the 54Mbps theoretical top end of current g kit.
Like all the Draft N hardware out there the 1500 will also be backwards compatible with existing 802.11a/b/g wireless standards and boasts an increased (though unspecified) range. An upgraded version of Dell's Network Assistant will ship with the card enabling users to set up, maintain and troubleshot the product.
At just $59 the 1500 represents a real price coup and is available immediately. It also means that (s)when(/s) if the failed Draft doesn't work with the final standard you won't lose much sleep. That is unless you're really tight… or "Scottish".

Yesterday we got up early (for a Saturday), filled the car with essentials, and headed off, out of the city and up the valley where the Hutt River skirts the highway, its willows rapidly losing all their leaves, into the countryside. It was a gloomy, dark morning, and the rain that was forecast later in the day seemed to have arrived early – it was light, almost misty, and we hoped it would be different at our destination.
We passed the tempting $10 Breakfast sign at the café at the bottom of the hill, tempted to stop for bacon and eggs and a decent coffee, thinking about texting our friends to say we might just be half an hour late. But we didn't, and we drove up into the winding Rimutakas, up into the cloud, and then dropped back into the Wairarapa beyond, a bit perturbed to find that the weather was no better, and maybe even worse.
We arrived at Alders, site of previous adventures in better weather, where we were due to help our friends harvest their olives. The sight of Peony and her bedraggled sister, both soaked through, supported my decision to bring my bought-for-Iceland-and-previously-only-ever-worn-there rain pants, grateful for my bought-for-Iceland-but-perfect-in many-places fleece and rain jacket, and pleased that my husband had thought to bring our gumboots (and later even more pleased he unwittingly gave me the pair without the hole in the sole).
Our hosts/overseers had thoughtfully provided gloves and plenty of purpose-bought rakes that easily strip the olives from the branches, and we stuck into the work, getting wet not so much from the rain which eased off and just turned to mist, but from the very wet olive trees, and only slightly hampered by steamed-up glasses. With a very efficient crew of workers this year, and even though the trees are so much bigger than when we first went about seven or eight years ago, it was only a few quick hours later that we were told they had enough olives (8-900 kgs or a ton), and sodden, we retreated back to the house to dry off, grateful for the wine, hearty lunch of Indian dahls and curries, and cheerful conversation after a job well done.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio Dominican's softball team dropped a pair of games in a non-conference doubleheader with Saginaw Valley State on Sunday afternoon at Panther Field.
The Cardinals (9-9) topped the Panthers by final scores of 3-1 and 10-4 to win their third and fourth-consecutive games.
In game one, ODU (10-11) held SVSU to just five hits and three runs, but mustered just four hits offensively. Junior pitcher Abby Lamping (Cleves, Ohio) went all seven innings in the circle, striking out five while walking just one. Freshman Kristen Bales (Pickerington, Ohio) went 2-for-3 in the game with a double, notching one RBI. Sophomore Cameron Barber (Powell, Ohio) also recorded a double for ODU.
Saginaw Valley held a 1-0 lead in the contest and used a two-run home run to left center field by Courtney Reeves in the third inning to take a 3-0 lead. Trailing 3-0 in the bottom of the third, Bales singled up the middle to score sophomore Brooklyn Rayburn (Reynoldsburg, Ohio) and cut the Panthers' deficit to just 3-1. Mikayla Alexandrou went all seven innings in the circle and gave up just two more hits for the rest of the game, earning the 3-1 victory for the Cardinals.
In game two, Saginaw Valley scored 10 runs on 14 hits to surge forward to victory. Ohio Dominican scored four runs on nine hits. Barber went 2-for-2 with an RBI and two walks. Senior Taylor Kline (Bellville, Ohio) finished 2-for-4 with an RBI. Bales followed up a strong performance in game one with a 2-for-4 outing in game two with an RBI. Freshman Carson Hackerd (Frankfort, Indiana) also went 2-for-4 in the contest.
The Panthers will look to get back in the win column when the host Ashland on Monday at Panther field for a non-conference doubleheader.

On March 4th, the Portland Police killed a veteran with PTSD. It was the second fatal shooting by the police this year. His name was Santiago Cisneros. He was thirty-two years old and had served in Iraq from 2002 to 2005. In an interview with a Seattle TV station in 2009, Santiago said, "I fought a war over there in Iraq. I didn't know I was going to have to fight a war back here in the United States within myself" and "it took awhile to realize I was dealing with PTSD because I didn't know what post-traumatic stress disorder was." I don't know what precipitated his confrontation with the police. All the Oregonian reported was that he shot at the officers first, and they returned fire. He'd been speaking to his mother on his cellphone directly before the police arrived. She was still on the line when the shooting started.
The first man killed by the Portland PD this year was named Merle Hatch. His mother said he had a terrible drug habit and that neither she nor his father had seen in him in more than ten years. The police shot him a few weeks ago in the parking lot of the hospital where I attend my bipolar recovery group meetings.
I was at the hospital roughly two hours before Merle died. I stood in that parking lot chatting with fellow members of the recovery group as we wandered out to our cars. It's a strange and sobering juxtaposition.
In both cases, the police had no other option. Merle threatened to shoot them with what turned out to be a black phone receiver. He taunted them and told them he was going to kill them. The term for it is "suicide by cop." Santiago started shooting when he saw the police. It's possible that he also chose that route.
The parallels between Santiago's mother and Jay Swift's mother are heartbreaking. I cannot even begin to imagine the pain that woman is feeling. I don't want to imagine how many parents can empathize with her suffering. BTW, here's an account of the shooting Jay's mother posted in response to the media coverage of her son's death:
In a previous post about this subject, I called out the police for their use of excessive force and tendency to shoot first and ask questions later when they respond to a call involving a person with mental health issues. It's a serious problem and it's the responsibility of law enforcement to address it. But I cannot deny the fact that this wouldn't be happening nearly as often if there were adequate resources and treatment for people who have mental illness, particularly when those people are in crisis.
For a good overview of the problem, check out this article from the Charlotte Observer:
I wish I could drum up some optimism about this, but quite frankly I can't. Cut after cut has been made to programs that would avert these kinds of tragedies. Our economy might be in for another recession and the sequester is set to decimate these programs even more. I do know that I see the imperative now more than ever to become an advocate and an activist. We are facing a spike in fear and stigma because of last year's mass shooting in Newtown CT and the fear-mongering groups like the NRA engage in because they want people to blame us instead of guns. Resources for treatment and management grow scarcer with each financial crisis, and given the current state of our federal government I'm not holding my breath for things to improve on that front any time soon.
But we do have advocacy groups, and the Internet grants us access to information and means to mobilize. We must educate ourselves and others. We must make our voices heard in our communities and seats of government. And we must do it now, not only for ourselves but for our family members who also suffer from mental illness and the loved ones whose lives are ruined because a person they love can't get the help they need. We must do it for the people with mental illness and the police who die when this broken system of ours engenders yet another avoidable crisis. This is literally a life-or-death issue.

I can hear the footsteps of other guests heading toward their cars. One asks if I'd like a ride. No thanks, I say. Not tonight.
Tonight I want to hear the ocean to my right as I walk along the dark street. My own shoes on the pavement, my breath going in and out. The sound of a small pickup idling at the corner booms out in the silence. It is metallic and outsize, the sound of an entire factory clashing into production.
I turn onto Taraval. Music pushes out from the Riptide. Narrow windows give glances of a tight crowd; boys holding girls hard against them, smokers slouching just out front.
On the bench at the stop is a young kid in a big black cowboy hat. An older man stands guard over a pile of bags and backpacks.
"I'm gonna fill the tub with salt," says the kid.
"You ain't going there," the man says.
"Tsh! Tsh!" the kid shushes.
He stands up and paces back to check the display. He's limping; one heel doesn't reach the ground. "Eight minutes," he says, drawling it out: Aay-it.
The train is full of kids heading out for their Saturday night. They are loud and full and humming with energy. One tall boy wears sneakers with puffy, distended tongues. They look festive, cartoonish.
I get off a stop sooner than I intend, but it works out well. I walk through quieter streets, my head emptying of all the pushing voices.
The host of tonight's party got bad news this week. A tumor. The party had been planned weeks before. My breath stops. Everything at the party stops. He tells us he'll be okay. It's going to be okay. He wrote a song about it, in the key of E. Guitar and accordion and our host singing that he'll be all right, and we all join in for the chorus.
He's going to be okay, he says, but his and his wife's faces are wide open and pale. Their eyes are bright and they smile with their whole tired selves. In the warm of their kitchen, we sing songs and clap out the beat, and one by one we shrug on coats and say goodnight, shining with grace of these people, this moment of being alive.

By MidlevelU Intern and BSN in Training Olivia DeFilippo
In the medical field, new discoveries are made very day. So, as a nurse, the information you are expected to retain seems endless. Nurses, nursing students, and nurse practitioners are expected to master this knowledge as new discoveries are made leaving many healthcare professionals struggling to keep up with the frenetic pace of always changing medical information.
As a nursing student I am taking multiple classes while simultaneously learning anatomy, physiology, and pharmacology. This is no easy task. Fortunately, there are some apps I have used to help memorize the information I need to become an RN. Here are two of my favorites.
Pocket Body
The Pocket Body app made by Pocket Anatomy depicts a 3-dimensional view of either the male or female body. As you move through anatomical structures, from superficial to deep you will note pins placed on structures of the musculoskeletal neurovascular, circulatory and lymphatic systems as well as the internal organs. Each structure is pinned for identification and is accompanied by relevant information. You can test yourself on your anatomical knowledge and take notes about each structure within the app.
The Pocket Body app is perfect for nurses to use as a visual aid for their patients when communicating with them about a specific body part. This app also serves as a great way to study on-the-go.
Isabel Symptom Checker
The Isabel Symptom Checker is pretty amazing. You simply plug in the symptoms your patient is experiencing and the app provides you with a list of possible diagnoses. When clicking on a disease or disorder you discover more information further helping you make a diagnosis. The Isabel Symptom Checker is useful for nursing, nurse practitioner, or medical students in clinical settings or when studying the various manifestations of a particular disease. A handy bookmarking feature allows you easy access to searches you would like to revisit at a later time.
It is easy to get stressed about all you need to know in nursing school given the constant flow of information. But, don't fret. There are many tools and resources available, such as Pocket Body and the Isabel Symptom Checker, to help you master the ever-growing mountain of nursing knowledge. Good luck studying!

Breast Exams & Ultrasounds
When it comes to breast health, early detection offers the best protection.
Our physicians perform breast exams as part of our routine check-ups, as well as offering more advanced care for those with breast pain, swelling, redness, or other symptoms.
While not a substitute for a mammogram, breast ultrasounds offer a preliminary evaluation of breast tissue. We have the capability to scan breast tissue in our office where your doctor can determine what steps, if any, need to be taken. The primary use of breast ultrasound is to determine the etiology of breast abnormalities or lumps and can determine the difference between fluid or solid structures within the breast and the features of the abnormality.
Breast ultrasounds are a non-invasive procedure using high-frequency sound waves to produce an image on a screen. The sound waves strike an object within the breast (tissue or fluid), and through the handheld transducer, return an image to the screen. Real-time images created by the ultrasound capture body parts or fluid within the body as it is happening.
With this ultrasound, we can see the internal structure of the breast and find the cause of breast symptoms, such as pain, swelling, redness, and lumps. Again, this ultrasound does not take the place of a yearly screening mammogram but can be used as an added tool.
Breast ultrasounds are well-suited for use with younger women who are not yet at the age to begin yearly screening mammography tests and tend to have denser breast tissue. Doppler imaging in breast ultrasounds uses color during the exam which shows blood flow within a solid lesion in the body. This can provide additional information in determining the mass structure.
Our physicians will decide what test is best for your individual situation. If indicated, we can perform your breast ultrasound in our office.

Best Doctors, Inc. conducts the largest, ongoing peer-to-peer poll of the physician community to populate and refresh its proprietary physician database. Voting physicians are asked, "If you or a loved one needed a physician in your specialty, to whom would you refer?" Physicians have a unique, professional perspective about who's at the top of their profession, who's up on the latest advances in their field, and therefore, where they personally would turn for state-of-the-art care when faced with a serious medical problem.
For each member case, Best Doctors identifies the best qualified physician expert(s) from their proprietary, global database of peer-selected expert physicians.
Best Doctors, Inc. never takes compensation of any kind from physicians or hospitals in return for listing physicians in the database, nor does Best Doctors pay physicians to participate in the poll. Physicians cannot nominate or vote for themselves for consideration in the poll. The Best Doctors global database includes more than 50,000 physicians in more than 450 medical specialties and subspecialties, all selected via the Best Doctors poll. Both Medical Doctors and Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine are eligible for inclusion.

Evening Commute
original oil painting 6x6 SOLD
Studio Gallery
Driving North on the 101 Freeway, I liked the warm light of sunset and the rhythmic patterns of the cars on the freeway. Although everyone hates to commute, there is beauty in the repetitive patterns, shapes and colors. I like the way my eye bounces around from warm to cool colors and shape to shape.

Library Funding: a Community Effort From the Start
Yates Community Library is grateful for the vital support it receives from the community it serves. As a non-profit educational organization operating on a minimal budget, Yates Community Library receives funding from a variety of sources. Residents of the library's service area, the Lyndonville Central School District, voted in 1995 to provide stable, ongoing financial support via an annual tax based on property value.
The remainder of the operating budget income, approximately 15 percent, is provided by other local support. Yates Community Library is extremely fortunate to have generous community members who choose to remember or honor loved ones with monetary gifts designated for books, brick walkway pavers, furnishings, or even programming for all to enjoy. The steadfast, significant donations of two local businesses have truly made a difference in what our library is able to provide for the community.
Various other means of support are actively sought each year by library staff and trustees. The Orleans County Legislature currently supports all four public libraries in the county; in our library's case, providing approximately 2 percent of our operating income. Grants from private foundations, most notably the Lyndonville Area Foundation and the Orleans County Foundation, plus New York State Council on the Arts funding distributed locally through GoArt, help us provide enjoyable programming designed to attract all age groups. Our Board of Trustees sponsors various fundraisers throughout the year, often with a goal of uniting the community as well as providing income. Last but not least, the Nioga Library System serves even our very small library in the same ways it serves its larger members, with grants to assist in summer reading programs, delivery of inter-library loans, computer training for library users, and consulting services to library staff, to mention just a few.
How You Can Help
Memorial / Honor Donation
Honor a loved one, living or deceased, with a donation. You may specify that books or other materials be purchased with your donation, and an attractive label will be placed in the front, showing your name and the person whom you wish to honor. An acknowledgment of your gift is sent to the family of the designee. Forms are available at the library; stop by or call us.
Memorial/Honor Garden Pavers
Your recognition of someone special will be visible to all in downtown Lyndonville through your purchase of an inscribed paver for the library's Community Memorial Garden. Located just south of the library, and established in 2009, the garden's brick paver walkway still has room for your desired order. Please call us or stop by to fill out a form with your desired inscription. Cost is $50.00 per paver.
Amazon Smile
Do you shop on Amazon? If so, you'll find the same products on its companion website, smile.amazon.com.
Here you can designate Yates Community Library as the charity you wish to receive one-half percent of your purchase, at NO EXTRA COST to you!

Learn to love the cloud
Cloud computing. It's not just a buzzword -- it's your future.
That's right: if you're not yet sick of the phrase, then you've got a leg up on the rest of us, because you're going to be hearing a lot more about cloud computing, cloud services, cloud-based storage and similar terms.
According to IDC's chief analyst, Frank Gens, cloud computing "will be a growth sector for the next 20 years."
"In 2009, the pace of adoption of the cloud will accelerate," Gens said. (The reason? Surprise, surprise: IDC predicts that the expansion to cloud computing will accelerate as budget pressures drive enterprises to seek out new, lower-cost options.)
It's already begun -- and certainly, vendors already realize this. Let's take a quick spin through a couple recent industry announcements regarding new offerings in the cloud.
