I don't mean to brag, but I'm a Marketing genius. Seriously. I've just had an idea that's going to change the face of advertising forever: I'm going to let you pay me to advertise in my Out of Office messages.
I get literally hundreds of emails a day. You could be responding to EACH of them! The possibilities are endless! Businesses, charities, even individuals can benefit from targeted advertising like this! For only $5 sent to my PayPal, here's how YOU can get your message SEEN!
Got a sale you need to spread the word about? Want to let people know about your new location? Looking to give your sales that extra boost? Consider any of the following options!
"Hi, I'll be out of the office today through Thursday. And you know, whenever I'm out of the office I always make a point to stop by Smilin' Jack's Steakhouse. Whether it's a tender Filet Mignon, fire-kissed Porterhouse, or sumptuous surf and turf, Jack's does it right. Stop by today!"
"Hello, I am currently out of the office. If your message is urgent, please contact management. Although if they have any sense, THEY'RE out of the office too because Memory Makers is having a blowout sale on some of the best greeting cards, doilies, knick knacks, and glassware in their inventory!"
"Sorry, but it looks like I caught the stomach flu that's going around. I'll be out of the office until further notice. It's a shame, too, because I was really looking forward to getting a complimentary haircut in celebration of Suzy's Salon opening on California Ave. today. Be sure to stop by and mention this Out of Office message for 20% off any coloring!"
See how that works? A personally crafted, highly targeted message beamed directly to customers and it's not even unsolicited! Technically! But you don't have to be a business to benefit from this strategy.
At rates like these even YOU can afford to personally advertise with me. Put a spin on that marriage proposal! Impress your friends! Just give yourself a pick-me-up! Anyone emailing me COULD be seeing a message from you:
"Hi, this is Randall, I'll be out of the office Monday, the 22nd through Friday, the 26th. Apropos of nothing, Chris Peters is the best kisser on planet Earth. Seriously. Give him a smooch and see."
"Hey all. Sorry, but I've been called away unexpectedly due to a death in the family. I am not sure when I will be back. PS Melissa Knobloch of Macon, Indiana: will you marry Steve Ketterman?"
"If I wasn't headed out of town for the next four days to cover the Consumer Electronics Show you can bet I'd be hitting on Stacy Duncan of Desoto, Missouri. She is as hot as she is available."
Public Service Announcements
Municipalities on a budget can reach their citizens now in an instant, thanks to targeted email out of office messages!
"I am in a Company-Mandated Sexual Harassment Education Seminar all day today. Also, there is a boil order until further notice for Los Gatos, California."
"Due to the Ballard Farmer's Market running out of cherries for the season I will be taking the rest of the afternoon off."
"I am working from home today with limited access to email, but still available on my cell phone. There is a PTA meeting tonight at 6pm in St. Joseph, Minnesota, and they still need a volunteer to provide some kind of cookie or snack and drinks."
Space is filling up fast and you never know when I'll have to leave the office, so don't delay! Send me $5 today!
I like how you point out that the sexual harassment course is company mandated and not just how you choose to spend your afternoons. Its an important clarification because nobody ever expects you to listen at something that is required by your boss, leaving you free to harass all the sexuals you want outside of work.
Um, so, this is kind of a weird one:
I have this coworker - let's call him "Mandy" - who's always staring at me with this weird, angry look in his eyes like he wants to hurt me. And not just occasionally - whenever I turn around, there he is, staring.
Anyway, I feel kind of uncomfortable just coming right out and confronting him, so I thought maybe something indirect - like one of these out of the office messages! - might help...
Any takers yet? Figured I could do this too, but wanted to know if it would be worth my while.
I feel like this is too risky without a demographic breakdown. What are the interests of those who generally e-mails you when you're away from your desk? Do these people (or anybody) read auto-replies? Can we post your address somewhere to increase the chances of our target audience seeing the message? If you only get spam about male enhancement during one vacation, do we get a refund?
Oh, and when you guys do that seminar, do you have that horrifying exercise where they make you harass your colleagues? We had one where we were instructed to first come up with five workplace-acceptable compliments, and then...make them inappropriate. Thank you, HR, for forcing me to be a better man...at being mean.

Opportunities are still available but closing fast! (read: no interest yet)
I just quit my office job for the much more glamours life of the waitress.. I'm totally writing one of these as a farewell. Thx Randy!, er Mandy!

Capobianco established two single-season schools records in the winning effort. The junior now has four shutouts this year, topping the previous record of three that he shared with five other netminders. Capobianco also raised his single-season save total to 1,020 stops during the 2012-13 campaign, surpassing the previous record of 993.
Senior Preston Shupe led the Griffs with two goals on the night, while senior Ben Parker and sophomore Cody Freeman also scored in the victory.
"It was a hard win that took a lot of energy and effort from us, especially on the penalty kill," said Canisius head coach Dave Smith. "It was the little things like sticks in the lanes, finishing checks, strong and timely goaltending and a lot of heart that got us that win tonight."
After a scoreless first period, it was Freeman who finally got the Griffs on the scoreboard with his eighth goal of the season five minutes into the second. Off a rush, the sophomore got a step on the Bentley defense and jammed the puck into the net for the 1-0 lead. Juniors Kyle Gibbons and Patrick Sullivan each recorded assists on what proved to be the game-winning tally.
It was then the Canisius defense's turn to step up big. The Griffs were whistled for consecutive penalties late in the second stanza and Bentley had 1:22 of 5-on-3 play. However, the Griffs allowed the Falcons only one shot on goal during the 82-second span, which Capobianco stopped to preserve the Canisius lead.
Parker doubled the Griffs advantage to two early in the third period. Off another rush, Gibbons sent a pass across the ice, which Sullivan deflected to Parker at the boards. The senior defender then fired the puck in for his second goal of the season 2:26 into the period.
Shupe then gave Canisius a three-goal advantage, scoring on a power play with just 4:51 remaining in the contest. Bentley won a faceoff in its own zone but freshman Ralph Cuddemi intercepted the clearing attempt in the high slot. The rookie then sent a shot on net and Shupe was there to clean up the rebound and send it in for the 3-0 lead.
The senior captain then added a second tally shortly later, scoring on an empty net with Bentley on a power play. Shupe's 15th goal of the season sealed the Canisius victory with assists going to sophomores Mitch McCrank and Logan Roe.
Canisius finished the game with a slight advantage in shots, 36-35. The Griffs were 1-for-3 on the power play, while killing all six Bentley power plays.
Branden Komm recorded 32 saves in the loss for the Falcons.
The schools return to action tomorrow night where Canisius will look to complete its series sweep and advance to the Atlantic Hockey Quarterfinals. Game time at the Buffalo State Sports Arena is scheduled for 7:05 p.m.
Game Notes: Dan Morrison held the previous record for saves in a season with 993 (2010-11) ... The start was the first for Capobianco in the postseason ... Parker scored in back-to-back games after going scoreless in his previous 89 contests ... Freeman now has 12 points (7g, 5a) in his last 13 games after recording just seven points in his first 38 career games ... Canisius won a home playoff game for the first time since joining Atlantic Hockey (were 0-2 previously) and for the first time since defeating Connecticut, 4-1, in 2001 (MAAC Quarterfinals) ... The shutout was the third in Canisius' postseason history - earning a 1-0 overtime win against Quinnipiac in the 2004 Atlantic Hockey Quarterfinals and a 2-0 win over RIT in the 1987 ECAC West Tournament.

Wonderland Farm has 30 acres of pumpkins ready to discover and bring home. The entrance has pumpkins for costumers to buy or they can roam the land and pick the pumpkins straight off the vine. Were some of the pumpkins rotting and filled with flies? Yes. Many actually. But that's all part of it. The patch wasn't all groomed and pristine. It was an adventure.
Since we basically had the field to ourselves, we could take our time picking out our favorites. Our only competition was another couple and their dog. And they were good. I saw the ones they were picking--warty ones, white ones, tall skinny ones, and classic round ones. They already had two wagons filled with amazing unique pumpkins and they weren't done yet. I imagined they were the owners of a 19th century bed and breakfast and were picking pumpkins to delight all their guests. I could see all their pumpkins pouring down the steps and into the lawn for the next two months. A gorgeous fall display for all to enjoy.
I paid them no mind until I saw Oscar standing guard over his newly discovered pumpkin. After searching almost the entire field, he knew this was a pumpkin worth protecting. It wasn't going to be snatch up by anyone. Not me, not Owen, and certainly not our fierce competitors over 2 acres away. The pumpkin was bright orange, had a nice thick stem, and perfectly round. One of the best I've ever seen.
"You've done good," I told him, "But there's more to see!"
We all continued to look for more and walked away, but Oscar stood still. First looking at us, then his pumpkin and then the couple who was now over 3 acres away. Back and forth. Until he finally yelled out, "Help guys! I really found the perfect pumpkin. This is it. I need to bring it to the wagon."
We were all too invested in our search to stop and help him. He continued to wait for someone to help. One foot on the pumpkin as if it was Plymouth Rock itself. Then sitting on the pumpkin like a chair. Eventually he plucked that pumpkin right off the vine and started to roll it to the wagon. Except it wasn't rolling straight and it started to get away from him.
I heard him yell, "Dad! Help! Pleeease!"
Rob ran over and helped him take it over to our wagon to be claimed as ours--forever. The end of country life for this pumpkin started right then. No more sunshine or deers or dirt or bugs or even germs thanks to the bottle of Purell Oscar poured all over it as soon as we got home. Now that it's under the care of Oscar and experiencing posh city life, it's never had it so good.
I didn't quite see it at the patch, but it is a remarkable pumpkin. It's currently sitting in the middle of my living room next to the other pumpkins we bought. Oscar's is the biggest one by far and stands out among the rest. He had reason to protect it from those ruthless bed and breakfast owners. They overlooked one of the best pumpkins in the field. And while it didn't have warts or an odd shape, it's a classic. Like out of a drawing. Or a children's book. It surely is the great pumpkin, Oscar Bees.

text: Hello all, I am currently working on a Boba and Custom (basically using costume parts I no longer want to use on my Boba). I was gonna double up my flight suit and vest for both costumes and have been working towards a trooping event in April for my Mandalorian Super commando to attened, however through no fault of my own or the suit/vest supplier it is not gonna be here in time for clearance or to use. So I now have to source acceptable alternatives, without breaking into my Boba fund if possible. I think I have got a suit sorted out which will work out pretty well, so that leaves the vest. As I type this I am thinking scratch built and have printed the tutorial from here by Darth Mule, I have a seemstress on standby (my old mum) but have no idea what the material is that is used, it looks quilted or lined, and what is twill or drill, totally clueless :( all help will be greatly appreciated here guys!

This is the strangest question I have posted but here goes.
I have wanted to make a Starkiller Training Gear suit, the first costume you see in the game, since TFU came out, but my attempts for acuracy have been hindered by the fact I have body fat and the CG character dosent. I am 6'0" and weigh 185 lbs, which is an increase I am trying to get rid of and get back down to at least 170 in the new year, so to most people I do look thin, especially among my coworkers. but when I try to put the belts on so I dont look pudgy my stomach is more round so it looks like I have a pot belly.
Does anybody know where or how to make a girdle or corset kind of binding to hold things where they look less plumping?

If you ask his teammates, it was only a matter of time for Marcel Davis.
In his first few games, the freshman looked very much like - well, a freshman. A kid stuggling with the speed of the college game.
But those who have seen him in practices have seen a very steady, gradual improvement.
"He gets better every day," Spencer Butterfield said. "We talk about it all the time. Every time, he does a little better, passes a little better, makes more shots, steps up his game. You know it was bound to happen with his work ethic."
It's hard to pick at Davis' performance on Saturday night, a 21-point outing on 9-for-11 shooting with five rebounds, three assists and no turnovers. Against Western Oregon, Davis was very much the point guard coaches are expecting him to be one day.
He was quick going from end-to-end, finishing fast breaks with layups. He also shot 3-for-5 from 3-point range, and took Wolves defenders hard off the dribble. Sure it was a Division II opponent, but leading the team in scoring and shooting was something to behold for Davis who for now has been a backup.
Davis showed signs of progress in recent games, perhaps none better than against Santa Clara. And he felt a good game coming
"I always try to come in with a lot of energy," Davis said. "Just told the guys to rebound and let's run. Jarred, Jordan, Ben, Kyisean rebounded really well and I just look for the outlet and just got on the break. And we got whatever we wanted on the break."
It was an all-around stellar performance from the rookie out of American Fork, a long time commit who - if he keeps it up - could be starting a brilliant career in Logan.
"I thought he was the one guy who right from the get-go, he was ready to go," Stew Morrill said. "He had a really good game, he was aggressive. He's just getting a little better every night out and that's exciting. He's obviously earning more minutes and doing good things."
Butterfield with a strong start
On the stat sheet, maybe no one popped out quite like Spencer Butterfield: 10 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists.
The junior transfer was announced earlier this week as Danny Berger's replacement in the starting lineup, and it wasn't a surprise. Before Berger went down, Butterfield had established himself as the first man off the bench. He's fifth on the team in scoring, and has shown an ability to use his body for hustle boards.
Morrill said he expected as much from Butterfield, and more of it in the future.
"Spencer's always gonna play really hard," Morrill said. "He's a very good rebounder who sometimes gets overlooked. He can shoot the ball. He wasn't blessed with great quickness, but he makes up for it with really hard physical play - he's probably our strongest guy."
Reed: defensive MVP?
One underlooked aspect of Utah State's strong early season this year is defense, and the role its played in the team's successes. And no one is quite leading the defense like Kyisean Reed.
Statistically, he leads the teams in blocks and steals. Although Jarred Shaw is the team's leading rebounder, Reed has a knack for getting the board and the open pass, as he showed by chipping in three assists against Western Oregon. And his offensive rebounding, which is just about on par with Shaw, plays a huge role in second-chance points and keeping the ball out of opponents' hands.
With Reed on the floor, the Aggies have an impact playmaker who is a huge contributor to the early wins. Western Oregon shot only 36.2 percent from the field, the third such opponent to be held below 40 percent. And the interior defense by Reed and Shaw helps keep the middle clogged.

NEW YORK (CNS) — Anyone familiar with the perennial TV special "A Charlie Brown Christmas" will know that the "Peanuts" franchise, which began life as a comic strip penned by cartoonist Charles M. Schulz between 1950 and 2000, has a knack for unabashed but also un-bashing spirituality.
In the new movie "90 Minutes in Heaven," moviegoers intrigued with the title undoubtedly will be compelled to catch a glimpse of the hereafter. The directors will not disappoint.
NEW YORK (CNS) -- Fillet it how you will, "Minions" (Universal) is a rare treat. This bright 3-D animated comedy traces the history of the yellow, capsule-shaped creatures whose endearing presence in the background contributed to the success of both 2010's "Despicable Me" and its rather unimaginatively titled 2013 sequel, "Despicable Me 2."

Upland game bird reports are rolling in...By idfg-jknetter on Thursday, Nov 3rd, 2011 5:32pm MDT
Forest grouse seasons have been open since late August and all other species opened on October 1.
Most hunters have reported that forest grouse population are 'spotty' and locally abundant.
Both the sage- and sharp-tailed grouse seasons are now closed. Most hunters reported that populations were down from 2010 levels across the range.
Chukar, gray partridge and quail hunters seem to be faring much better. Hunters in the Southwest Region have reported seeing healthy populations of birds. Of the wings that have been turned in thus far, many are juveniles; suggesting that production was good this past spring/summer. Many hunters have reported seeing 'small' birds which would suggest there were some late hatches. Reports from the Southeast Region are that gray partridge numbers are down from 2010 levels when they were quite abundant. I have not heard any reports from the Clearwater, Magic Valley or Salmon regions yet.
Happy hunting!

Revolution Power Yoga hosts six-week program
February 18, 2013
Certified yoga teacher Julie Kiddoo said her experiences participating in and leading the 40 Days to Personal Revolution program has transformed her life.
"Revolution Power Yoga wouldn't be here if it weren't for the 40 Days," Kiddoo said. "It's just made such a powerful impact on me and this yoga community."
She said the six-week program will help you strip away stress, worry and old habits in order to find your natural, happy and authentic self.
Kiddoo, who will lead the program this season at RPY, emphasized how participants will be jump-starting practices of yoga, meditation, journaling, diet awareness and self-inquiry. The program will also include weekly themes and group discussions.
"We meet once a week, and in these community meetings it's really about connecting with other students who are going through this program with you at the same time," Kiddoo said. "Although students may have different things in their lives that they are working on, it's so key to have the support of others who are going through the program."
During this program participants are asked to commit to meetings once a week, which are held every Tuesday at 7:30 p.m., directly following the 5:45 p.m. yoga class.
All other aspects of the program – yoga, meditation, journaling and mindful eating – are done at the participant's own pace. Revolution Power Yoga offers 22 classes per week and unlimited yoga is included in the cost of the program. Podcasts will also be provided online, making it easy for participants to practice at home when they aren't at the studio.
"It's life-changing," said Emily Selonick, a past program participant. "As much as it's hard to believe that 40 days and a book on yoga and meditation can change your life, it really does."
Join Revolution Power Yoga for this life changing six-week program where you will ignite your body, awaken your mind and transform your soul.
"I really just needed some extra support to get my self-confidence back," said Kiki Schmidt, another past program participant. "Coming in and doing the 40 Days, along with yoga six days a week and meditation, was incredible."
Participants can pre-register online at http://www.revolutionpoweryoga.com, or call 970-748-3176 or come into the studio to sign up. Limited space available.

Vessel Registration
Bill of Sale for Boat
A Bill of Sale (BOS) for a boat must have adequate information to positively link the BOS to the boat, similar to the example WRD BOS posted HERE.
Owners of Georgia registered boats must notify the Department, in writing, of sale or transfer, theft or recovery, or destruction or abandonment of a boat within 15 days. Additional information.
The following should be on the BOS.
However, WRD recognizes that not all BOS will be this complete. It is a judgment call whether WRD believes the BOS received is adequate to link the vessel to the BOS in a reasonably sufficient manner. Whether a BOS is adequate may also depend on other documents submitted such as an out of state title, a manufacturer's statement of origin, or other information that supports the submitted BOS by positively identifying and linking data or other information to the boat in question.
A BOS does not have to be witnessed OR notarized, although this is acceptable.
If it is determined that a BOS is not available at all or is not adequate, the customer should obtain an adequate BOS. If a BOS cannot be obtained, an Affidavit of Vessel Ownership may be completed

Urine Test!
Like a lot of folks in this state, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck, I am required to pass a random urine test with which I have no problem. What I Do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who DON'T have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check because I have to pass one to earn it for them?
Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I Do, however, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their *** doing drugs while I work. Can you imagine how much money the state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check?
Pass this along if you agree or simply delete if you don't. Hope you all will pass it along, though. Something has to change in this country -- and soon!
Happy and Merry!
I agree with you & I will raise your bet!
How about all of these gang bangers & the like of them that is in prison for life?
What the point
What is the difference between a life sentence & a death sentence?
If some one does something so horrible & there is no doubt ,then need to not be sucking up tax money for being a burden on society.
They spend{average} $50,000 a year for being locked up doing dope . :pain:
I say they should harvest their organs then most of the people on Medical welfare could get a 2nd chance!
Hey Rob, this is way off topic but how did that little thumbs down icon end up next to the title block in your post?
Thats a fantastic idea drug test the welfare loosers.
That will never happen, makes too much sense :evil:
If you are on welfare/unemployment you should be looking for a job. Most places now days make you take a drug test so if you don't pass the test you are not able to look for work. I don't know but wouldn't that be a reason to deny them.
Here in Oregon they now have Oregon trail card instead of food stamps. It is just like an atm card. We don't want them to feel bad when they go by junk food.
One more thing. Why dont government/state employees have to take drug tests?
Drug test them , schmug test them , they'll still be able to buy booze and take whatever pills they may take.( xanax , vicodin,oxycontin , etc , soforth , so on .... )
Wouldn't it be better to make welfare reception dependant on community service? There are plenty of good programs the cities and states could use "volunteers" for ( trash pickup and such....) then the welfare folks would REALLY be looking for work , not just sitting back and collecting. We sentence people to "community service" all the time as punishment for crimes. If criminals can do that type of work , so can able-bodied people who want a "free" paycheck.
I know if I needed welfare and they told me , sure - you have to work here or there - I'd be down with working for it. Welfare should be in place to help people not be hungry. Not to help them live a life of leisure.
There's my dime.
Are you kidding me? Did you see the fight they put up with over giving a finger print to collect Welfare?????
GOD YES make them pass a urine drug test, how much more common sense does it need to be?
But if you are going to talk government gone mad, how about this one. Now for all you liberals preaching about Bush, this is DEMOCRAT COUNTRY boys. This is Ex Ca govenor Jerry "wheat germ" Brown who was mayor of Oakland Ca when this happened. What happened to the 1.1 million given to the Black Muslim Bakery? (click here) The "Black Muslim Bakery" they refer to in the story has done things like went and trashed corner stores in the black neighborhoods because they were selling liquer, saying that it was the stores fault the neighborhood was full of winos. Now, I agree to some degree with their point, however, seems all the stores that got trashed where Asian owned. :rolleyes:
The latest was a number of them being arrested for killing some poor newspaper reporter who was about to write a story on them.
This is right next to a city (Berkley) where they took the American flags off the fire trucks because they didn't want to "offend" anyone!
Just hand it out, hand it out no questions asked. Pump out babies, borrow money and max out credit cards, do what ever you want, we are here to give you anything you need.
By the waym this is the same government that Hillary and Micheal Moore want to run the our health care system. :pain:
brian, i'm familiar with the muslim bakery stories, they pop up in the news on a regular basis--they're nut jobs. and all the kooks live in bezerkley, but is that all you could come up with!! :D :D what about richmond? east palo alto? or THE CITY?? the bay area has become looney tunes. :pain: (no offence to you)
i am against the electric chair.....
i am for electric bleachers!!!! :thumbup:
happy new years to all you hot rodders. :welcome:
OK I'm in a wild spin heading for a snow drift with my foot to the floor but...
Really how can we BEEACH
Bad kids trace back to bad parents who trace back to bad parenting...95% of the time.
Me having NO KIDS see the good in good well raised kids now & then.
On to my point.
Look @ our Government how many Trillions of Dollar$ are we in debt?
So how can we expect the simpletons to take care of their selves when the "..{I use this term extremely lightly} Best minds of our country" can even do it.
Around here you are Either Poor or OK there is no middle of the road..
Seems like it would be better just to start a new USA.
like the GOOBERment aught to file bankruptcy. ;)
This past summer I took a vaction hitting all the "Birth of a Nation" stuff from Boston down to Virgina. That is one thing I kept thinking over and over, who in the living hell could we call on to do something that Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, etc. did? LOL, there isn't a combination of twenty people in any office in America would could/would do what any one of our founding fathers did on their own!!!!
Give me a break! We have the best country in the world, it just needs some repair work. But we certainly don't need to start over!
I am against welfare except for the most needy cases, and I do mean needy. I am also against drug testings. I want people out of my life, my blood and government out of my wallet.
My wife and I were talking about this recently too (We got the same Email from her dad...). Basic conclusion we both came to is indeed a pretty sad one if you stop to think about it this way. Say the Goobermint started testing for drugs before doling out the welfare checks/food stamps/federal aid/ whatever you call it. Suddenly crack/methheads have a lack of funds and ability to finance the addictions they have. What do they start doing? Start robbing business's and private homes, that's were the money is, right? How else would they finance the habits they have?
It's not like you see any too many drug users just showing up at an employer's door just begging to go to work. That would be the day. Take the easy way out and steal for what you need. I could foresee the crime rate going thru the roof and drug related violence becoming even more prevalent. Personally, I'd love to see mandatory drug tests for those on welfare, but at the expense of needing more slugs for my 12 ga., I'd rather not see it happen. Ever here of the lessor of two evils? If I caught someone burglarizing my property, I can guarantee they will never do it again. However, I do know that I'll have to answer for that judgment call with a life sentence as well.
My solution to all this is probably too simple too, but here it is.
1. Clean house in D.C. The President, the House, the Senate, even clear out the lobbyists. Start completely over. Give elected officials one chance. If they can't find enough loopholes to make their millions of $$$'s in one terms' time, why give them decades to do it? Ted Kennedy and my own states' Dave Obey come to mind. I say line their pockets once and toss them out. This may be the only way to execute real change in government.
2. This part may throw a few for a loop, but please hang with me as I explain my reasoning why. Legalize drugs, and then tax the snot out of them. 50% tax should do it. Probably finance the entire government payroll on the taxes alone. Works well for the tobacco industry. Just don't subsidize the "drug farmers" like they do the tobacco farmers. Anybody that has been around tobacco farming knows exactly what I'm talking about. Portions of what smokers pay in cigar/cigarette taxes are funneled right back into tobacco farmer's pockets to help them out in bad growing years.
Now I'm also talking about strictly enforcing a lack of drug use in certain professions, Dr.s, emergency health care providers, and airline pilots come to mind right away. Now here it gets a bit touchy, but hear me out. One of the biggest challenges to this is that the parents in this country will have to step up what they do to make sure that their children can tell the difference between morally right and wrong from an very early age. More on this in a bit...I've never tried drugs, and saw no reason to try them. Heck, I don't even take aspirin for a headache.
Another part of legalizing drugs in my system is to inflict the most severe punishments our courts dole out for people convicted of any crime with any known narcotic in their system. I'm talking death penalty here, boys. Would you get high and knock off a liquor store if getting caught meant getting a one way trip six feet under? How about driving impaired by drugs? Simply put, you commit a felony or kill someone and test positive for drugs, you die. No second chances, no stays of execution. Make people think before they shoot up about the consequences, and drug usage will drop. Crime rates (barring those in D.C. of course :rolleyes: ) will drop as well. Who needs a new SuperMax prison if you clean house once a week? I really like the "electric bleacher" idea that was posted earlier.
Anyways, I'll step down now before I say something I may really regret.
In a while, Chet.

In this column, Bob Glass skewers one of the "old wives' tales" of the software field, the theory-based prediction that software reuse will lead to unbounded improvements in both development productivity and software quality. "It ain't so," he says here. But he certainly wishes that it were.
Here's the conventional wisdom: Reuse is about building software from components. The bigger and more generalized the components, the better. At best, software products could be built entirely from such reused components.
The virtues of that kind of thinking are obvious. In addition to dramatically improving software development productivity (since a lot of software no longer would need to be written from scratch), software quality would also be improved, equally dramatically (since software that has been used before has probably already passed numerous reliability and quality hurdles).
That kind of thinking is all well and good, I want to tell you. But it's also wrong-headed! What I want to do here is give you the rationale for my very contrarian position on reuse.
Recently, I received a copy of the proceedings of a software engineering conference whose subject was reuse. Reuse has always intrigued me, starting with my software development days in the late 1950s when the only way to get famous in the software field was to contribute software components to the reuse libraries of that time. Back then, software had no monetary value-everybody was in the Open Source field, whether they wanted to be or not-and so getting famous by selling a lot of software didn't work. And in those days there was no software development literature, so you couldn't even become famous by writing articles like these to share what you knew with others who might (or might not!) care. In an ironic way, it was a purist kind of fame. You became famous by building software, not by selling it or writing about it. So back in those early days I leaped enthusiastically into the field of building reusable software.
But back to the conference proceedings. The more I read, the more depressed I got. The proceedings reeked of the conventional wisdom I mentioned above. There was a lot of advice on how to do a better job of (a) doing, (b) motivating, and (c) managing reuse. There was even the usual collection on how to build better search engines to locate and extract the perfect reusable component for the problem you are working on.
What are the problems with reuse, the ones that make me such a naysayer?
- Reuse "in the small" was a problem solved in the 1950s. We built huge, useful collections of mathematical and data-processing library routines, routines that are commonly used to this day.
- Reuse "in the large" is and always has been an unsolved problem. In spite of the enthusiasm of the components crowd, finding in a library of components the precise one that will solve your problem at hand is nearly an impossible task.
- The problem is not that we can't find the perfect component in that library of reusable parts. (That's what those "search engine" folks are trying to solve.) The problem is that the perfect component is simply not there. (And no amount of clever search engines will fix that!)
- It is tempting but largely unworkable to try to bend imperfect components into perfect ones. Research studies at my favorite home of software engineering research, the NASA-Goddard Software Engineering Laboratory (SEL), have shown that if you have to change more than 15 to 20 percent of a component to make it work in your program, it is more economical to build the component from scratch. And few components meet that 15-to-20 percent threshold.
- And why is that perfect component never in the component library when you need it? That's where the insight from those conference proceedings comes into play. Paul Bassett of Netron, Canada, said, "Unpredictable
User Comments
Would it be possible to get the exact references or the link of the research study of the NASA-Goddard Software Engineering Laboratory (SEL) that shows that you can achieve a level of reuse of 70% if the variability is narrowed down enough? Indeed, I have been looking for such a study on the SEL's website, but without more details about the references of this study it is really hard to find it.
Thanks in advance.

In my paper, "Publication Practices for Transparent Government," I talked about the data practices that will produce more transparent government. The government can and should improve the way it provides information about its deliberations, management, and results.
"But transparency is not an automatic or instant result of following these good practices," I wrote, "and it is not just the form and formats of data."
It turns on the capacity of the society to interact with the data and make use of it. American society will take some time to make use of more transparent data once better practices are in place. There are already thriving communities of researchers, journalists, and software developers using unofficial repositories of government data. If they can do good work with incomplete and imperfect data, they will do even better work with rich, complete data issued promptly by authoritative sources.
We're not just sitting around waiting for that to happen.
Based on the data modeling reported in "Grading the Government's Data Publication Practices," and with software we acquired and modified for the purpose, we've been marking up the bills introduced in the current Congress with "enhanced" XML that allows computers to automatically gather more of the meaning found in legislation. (Unfamiliar with XML? Several folks have complimented the explanation of it and "Cato XML" in our draft guide.)
No, we are not going to replace the lawyers and lobbyists in Washington, D.C., quite yet, but our work will make a great deal more information about bills available automatically.
And to build society's capacity "to interact with the data and make use of it," we're hoping to work with the best outlet for public information we know, Wikipedia, making data about bills a resource for the many Wikipedia articles on legislation and newly passed laws.
Wikipedia is a unique project, both technically and culturally, so we're convening a workshop on March 14th and 15th to engage Wikipedians and bring them together with data transparency folks, hopefully to craft a path forward that informs the public better about what happens in Washington, D.C. We've enlisted Pete Forsyth of Wiki Strategies to help assemble and moderate the discussion. Pete was a key designer of the Wikimedia Foundation's U.S. Public Policy Initiative—a pilot program that guided professors and students in making substantive contributions to Wikipedia, and that led to the establishment of the Foundation's Global Education Program.
The Thursday afternoon session is an open event, a Wikipedia tutorial for the many inexperienced editors among us. It's followed by a Sunshine Week reception open to all who are interested in transparency.
On Friday, we'll roll up our sleeves for an all-day session in which we hope Wikipedians and experienced government data folks will compare notes and produce some plans and projects for improving public access to information.
You can view a Cato event page about the workshop here. To sign up, go here, selecting which parts of the event you'd like to attend. (Friday attendance requires a short application.)

I am sure there are differing views on Sunday hunting. However, as a military member who has had the privilege to hunt numerous states, the Sunday hunting law is quite constricting. For those Delta Waterfowl members, you probably received the email notifying members that the Sunday hunting bills were held up in the committee. I did email the committee members and received one response so far from Senator Jackson's office. I have pasted it below. I hope at a minimum that hunting on Sundays can become a basic freedom for all state hunters and not a legislated restriction. I am not here to debate religion, I am simply attempting to inform my fellow hunters on issues relevant to our passion.
Senator Jackson will not support Sunday hunting in North Carolina due to personal reasons. While he fully recognizes this may be an inconvenience to some, he hopes that everyone will understand that to him Sunday hunting, and Sunday voting for that matter, should not take place. Everyone deserves a day to rest.

The state church of Norway has found itself embroiled in a conflict over the presence of one of their ministers in the town of Oppdal which is in the mountains. The local church leader has come under sharp criticism after he prevented a pastor, who originally comes from Sierra Leone, from participating in several funerals because relatives did not want a black skin pastor having anything to do with the final send off of their dead relative. Pastor Joseph Moiba has been told by local residents, that people like himself, "don't fit in Norway" and the pastor has been physically and verbally abused. Nils-Tore Andersen, leader of the state church council, Kirkeradet, is shocked because in his view, the church should be a leader in the fight against racism.
Andersen's reaction to family complaints concerning a black skinned man participating in funerals was "we try to meet the wishes of families in a funeral, but there's a limit." Andersen was upset the local pastor acceded to requests of families and barred Moiba from participating in several funerals.
Moiba is on a sick leave due to stress caused by the incidents and he fears they will resume when he returns to duty. One can only wonder how such intensity of feeling can emerge from people who have so little contact with Africans.

John and Elrose Pearson: A Passion for Giving
Approaching his 94th birthday, John Pearson is a champion giver. Not only have John and his wife Elrose (deceased in 2001), been annual contributors to Church World Service's ecumenical humanitarian aid programs, they have also, during their 63 years of marriage, completed three gift plans, which will ultimately benefit Church World Service's long term endowment.
With their children and grandchildren named to receive the bulk of assets held by the Pearson Living Trust, the couple also wanted to leave their offspring a "legacy of values" to live by. That legacy is expressed by the gifts to church and charity in a "tithed" portion of the Living Trust.
In addition to being included as a charitable beneficiary of the Pearson Living Trust, Church World Service is also named in one of their two Charitable Remainder Unitrusts. Created with appreciated securities during their lifetime together, the Unitrusts now continue to pay income to John.
Thirteen years of service on the Endowment Board of the United Methodist Conference of Nevada and Northern California helped John realize the advantages of tax wise planned giving and the importance of long term endowment for churches and non profits in general. On the bookshelf in his study appear titles such as Plan Your Estate and The Essentials of Estate Planning.
Following their retirement thirty years ago, John from the State Public Utilities Commission as Principal Engineer for Transportation and Elrose as a Library Specialist with the San Leandro School District, the Pearsons enjoyed traveling and serving on numerous committees of their congregation and the Conference. They also remained great supporters of the Wesley Foundation at Cal Berkeley where they met as undergraduates.
The third gift plan of the Pearsons designed to benefit Church World Service is the Charitable Gift Annuity created a few years before Mrs. Pearson's passing. The Two Life Annuity also provides John income and helps ensure, along with the other two gift plans, that the Pearsons will continue their giving to Church World Service for a long time to come.

...you can educate yourself about ...[agenda 21]... without falling off the edge of the internet into the weird stuff. it's worth the time.
... it redistribution on a global scale. tthat they wish to become accustomed to. What is left unsaid is that the UN's Climate Change policy is designed to stifle economic development in the Third World and there by acerbate poverty and hunger while concentrating or reconcentrating industrial out put and wealth in the West. If this is not true, why then ban economic development (by limiting carbon emissions) in the Third World while funding the bankrupt racist scheme on the backs of Western Working men and women by charging them for exceedind their allowable carbon allotments? The whole idea of cap and trade is to shell out a few pitiful shekels to the Earth's poor in exchange for the poor remaining forever poor. These shekels are to then be re-extracted from the Earth's poor by charging more for Western or First World manufactured goods. The whole stinking plan is no better than the Opium Wars that the Bloody English visited on the Chinese peoples. This was done so that the English could create a two or three legged trading model whereby English "Gentlemen and Gentlewomen" could drink fashionable Chinese Tea with their fancy bisquits while the Chinese addicts that the English created were lucky to drink filthy water out of a pig sty.

Hi folks,
I am up in the Corvallis area and have been hunting the willamette for some time now. I am wanting to get down Fern Ridge Lake and do some duck hunting there this season. I have a 14' aluminum boat with a little outboard and am curious if it is doable to motor around out there, or if I even need a boat to access the duck hunting spots around the lake? I have heard that the lake is pretty full of stumps, which is why I ask. I am looking forward to hearing back. Thanks!

AMES, Iowa – The Governor's STEM Advisory Council announced this week the nine 2013-14 STEM Scale-Up programs. The programs, selected through a competitive process, have the capacity to improve learner interest and achievement in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) areas.
School teachers, youth organization leaders, informal education professionals, county and regional extension programs, and other organizations delivering STEM educational programs can apply to bring one or more of the nine specially selected programs into a club or classroom during 2013-14.
The nine STEM Scale-Up programs will be distributed through Iowa's STEM regional hubs. Iowa State University is the North Central regional hub, but supports all the hubs in the initiative, fulfilling the university's land-grant mission.
"The STEM Scale-Up programs offer kids hands-on experiences in math, science, technology and engineering right in their community," said Lynne Campbell, the North Central regional hub manager. "Programs span all grade levels, all fields of STEM, and may be implemented in-school or out-of-school. Some programs may provide stipends for teachers, volunteers or coaches working beyond contract hours, curriculum materials, or training related to the program materials."
Programs selected as 2013-14 STEM Scale-Up programs are:
Applications for the Scale-Up programs must be submitted online by the April 10, 2013 deadline. Applications and details are available at www.iowastem.gov/. The Scale-Up programs will be awarded to local educators, both formal and informal, on a competitive basis. Those educators selected to receive programming will be notified by May 15, 2013 and can implement the programming immediately this fall.
PreK-12 educators, both formal and non-formal, are eligible to apply, as long as they have undergone a criminal background check as a requirement of employment. This is not a monetary grant application. All transactions will occur between the regional Hub and the program or service provider.
Applicants who propose to cost-share by absorbing some expenses or bringing additional funding will be considered favorably during the review process. Some Scale-Up Programs require cost sharing, as noted in their descriptions.
The Scale-Up Programs application, a map of Iowa's six STEM Regions, contact information for the STEM regional managers and a list of the nine Scale-Ups can be found at www.IowaSTEM.gov.

Panther boys suffer first conference loss in 3A West
Through three quarters, Powell High School head boys' basketball coach Mike Heny was happy with his team's position. The Panthers weathered an early storm to grab a one-point lead late in the third quarter, only to watch Cody reel off 10 straight on the way to a 66-53 victory over the Panthers.
"We kind of ran into a buzzsaw," Heny said after fifth-ranked Powell suffered its first loss in six 3A West conference games on Friday night. "It seemed they couldn't miss, especially in the fourth quarter when they scored 25 points on us.The bucket must have looked as big as a hula hoop for them."

Win over Bozeman pulls team within two games
The Yellowstone Quake scored a 6-1 victory over Bozeman to narrow the gap between themselves and a spot in the NORPAC hockey playoffs to two games. A 3-1 loss to Billings prevented the squad from shaving another game off that margin.
Alex Johansons' power play goal 3:31 into the game gave the Quake an early advantage in its Saturday game against Bozeman. Hazen Ripple countered with a power play goal for the Ice Dogs just before the 12-minute mark, but the scoreboard remained tied for just 19 seconds before the Quake's Tyler Torkelson delivered the go-ahead goal.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
The boy is almost 6 and he adores his minion. He tells her when he's had enough of her nonsense. Most of the time she respects that, sometimes I have to tell her it's enough.
With other dogs in training, she'd get snarky, especially the other female shepherd after she saw that other girl go after a smaller dog who was Venus' friend. The trainer had me body block her, make her look at me. If that didn't work, I'd back her up, physically put myself infront of her so she had to look at me and move towards her so she had to step back. 'No! Unacceptable'
On the street it's more difficult to body block her. The boy is always there so he helps - he's a big thick east german dog who's build rather like a walking wall. I would make light of it, look another dog be nice and keep walking. The boy would keep walking because he genuinely does not care if another dog is barking at him so he'd just pull her along away from the other dog.
Now that she's older, I can be be preemptive with her. I see another dog coming the other way, I tell her to 'be nice' as soon as I see her ears prick up to look at the other dog. Get in her head with the expected behavior. She's learning that she can woof woof hello if another dog barks at her but that's all I will put up with.
Earlier this week, we walked by a golden doddle behind an efence. The kids were following me on bikes so it wasn't like I could cross the road. Doddle barked at her repeatedly, she barked back but didn't put on a huge show. 6 months ago, she'd have told that dog where to go and how to get there...
Sun: Thank you for the advice! And she tortures our Golden, in a similar fashion (I'm sure) to how your girl bugs your boy).
How have you worked with your girl? I would love suggestions.
Sent from Petguide.com Free App
I've worked long and hard with my 15month old on this. She's a great lover of people and the only dog she'll allow into her personal bubble is my male shepherd. In fact she gets in his personal bubble in ways that would annoy her but they're a bonded pair and he takes a lot of nonsense from her.
If another dog gets in her face, she's just telling them to back off, giving them a correction. It's your job to get the other dog out of her face. I've never had a shepherd who liked other dogs to pester them. Not to sound like a dog snob but they really aren't like other dogs, they're above all that.
DJ: It all depends on the day for her. Typically she barks excessively, then gets snappy, then she will attempt to bite, followed by more barking/growling. I'm trying to find the right balance of when to remove her from a situation, and when to leave it be (any suggestions?)...She's my first puppy in a long time, so I tend to worry. Like I said, if the dogs are ignoring her she's great, but if they get in her face she gets angry.

|But is it something that you can stop or will stop on it's own? If so, she is not trying to harm the dogs. She is correcting them, which is totally normal.
DJ: It depends...she definitely will attempt to bite when she is pushed enough. At first she snaps, and if they don't listen, she will attempt to put her teeth on them.
Sri: haha, thank you! And that is a possibility...I just don't want her to have to stay away from the dog park, because she does enjoy it!

|haha. that picture is cute, you should make a crown of dandelions for her. If she doesnt like other dogs, surely that is okay. Just teach her to ignore them and stick with you? You can step in and tell the other owners that she doesnt like dogs, and you can block other dogs from getting near her? Is that a possibility?
|Is she trying to BITE them, or is she snapping at them as a correction?
Possible aggression with other dogs...
Hello, all! Recently, I've noticed my 4 month old female getting aggressive towards other dogs... she is fine with them as long as they don't "bother" her, but has started to lose her cool when one tries to play with her...she barks and growls, and in the past has only shown her teeth...yesterday she attempted to bite another dog that she was annoyed with.
She had been socialized around other dogs her whole life, and we take her out with us everywhere possible. She goes to puppy day care 3x' s a week, and is at the dog park at least twice a week. Ari has always ignored other dogs (you can tell she thinks she is better than them, ha!), but her attitude towards them is slowly turning into something different.
She is EXCELLENT with people of all ages, and I'd hate to have to worry about her around other dogs. We have an 8 month old Golden, whom she loves, but so far that's the only dog she's been good with. She is in puppy training class right now, and I plan on asking my trainer for tips, but I won't see her until Saturday.
I would LOVE some advice on how best to handle this. I attached a picture of my little monster. She loves dandelions!

Reckless driver arrested after nearly hitting police
A 24-year old Cornelius man was arrested Monday afternoon when he nearly struck two officers from Oregon State Police and Washington County Sheriff's Office along with emergency vehicles, after driving upon a traffic crash scene at a high rate of speed.
On July 22, 2013 at approximately 3:30 p.m., an OSP trooper stopped to assist Washington County Sheriff's Office at the scene of a single vehicle crash into a tree on Scotch Church Road just west of Jackson School Road. At approximately 3:45 p.m., a black Mercedes passenger car approached the crash scene eastbound on Scotch Church Road at a high rate of speed where the OSP patrol car and large fire truck were positioned with emergency lights on. The vehicle nearly struck the patrol car and fire truck as the trooper and a WCSO sergeant jumped to safety. The vehicle stopped after the trooper flagged the driver to stop.
Subsequent investigation led to the driver, Jorge Araujo, age 24, from Cornelius, being arrested and lodged in the Washington County Jail on the following charges:
* Reckless Driving
* Recklessly Endangering Another Person (2 counts)
* Misdemeanor Driving While Suspended
* Fail to Install an Interlock Ignition Device

The US now has the greatest concentration of wealth in the last 100 years. It's not that the country is poor, it's that all that money is in very few hands... and that does not make for a strong economy.
we are an aggregation of individuals making an individual effort toward success. successful individuals make a successful country.
socialism has degrees. socialism in any degree makes people and countries poorer. the Europeans are discovering that now. it is the individual effort that creates wealth for the individual and the country.
i fail to grasp how anyone can justify taking what i have earned to give it to someone who has not earned. that is theft.
another argument against government largess is what wealthy liberals do with their money. while they talk about higher taxation to care for the poor, they create tax sheltered foundations to do the job. even they know that the private sector does a better job than the government.
The tendency of individuals to look after themselves first and foremost results in an ongoing concentration of wealth.
war: that is one thing the govt is supposed to pay for. it is also a temporary expense. social welfare programs go on forever and expand in scope and expense.
Despite all your complaining about how your hard earned money is being stolen, unless I am missing something here, you are not someone who would be greatly harmed by the current proposals for higher taxes on the wealthy. Only those with taxable incomes over $250k would be affected at all. And the tax only applies to the amount over 250k. So if the tax was an additional 10% and you made $500k after deductions, your added tax would be $25k. For that extra tax, you get to live in a country with decent services, education, health care, less crime etc. Sounds like a good deal to me.
didn't robin hood rob the government/church and give (back) to the poor?
Sure, was anybody else rich?
here's an interesting idea. How about the government quit playing games and taxing incomes differently and drop all the tax shelters.Big Bear
a flat tax would be fantastic. no exceptions regardless of source of income.
I love it when liberals are painted with one enormous brush....

Supporters of the Communist regime in Cuba frequently remind one of Benito Mussolini who excused away brutality against political prisoners on grounds he made the trains run on time. The Castro regime has improved health care and education in Cuba but its continued refusal to allow freedom of speech, assembly and elections removes any opportunity to support the beneficial aspects of the Cuban regime. Cuban-American and journalism groups throughout the world are protesting the abusive treatment of political prisoners in Cuba. The wife of Juan Carlos Herrera Acosts told the Committee to Protect Journalists her husband sewed his lips together in protest against inhumane conditions in Cuban prisons. The Cuban government refused to comment about the 22 political prisoners whose case is being taken up by journalists throughout the world. Herrera was convicted under Cuba's Law 88 which makes it a crime to disseminate any information or disturb public order with the aim of furthering the US embargo against the island.
Cuban authorities removed the stitches and forced Herrera to eat but he continues his defiance against the brutality of Cuba's rulers who will not allow free expression in their nation. Amnesty International lists Herrera as among those "imprisoned solely for the peaceful expression of their beliefs."

City Hall Dubs Today "USC Olympic Champion Day"
Nov. 9, 2012
Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa joined L.A. City Councilwoman Jan Perry and others on the City Council in declaring Friday (Nov. 9) "USC Olympic Champion Day" in the city of Los Angeles during a ceremony at City Hall.
Eleven Trojan Olympians, including two-time gold medalist swimmer Rebecca Soni, gold medal water polo player Lauren Wenger as well as silver medalists Haley Anderson (swimming), Nicole Davis (volleyball), Bryshon Nellum (track) and Josh Mance (track) were in attendance, as was USC President C. L. Max Nikias, members of the Athletic Department's administration and a handful of horn players and drummers from the USC Trojan Marching Band.
The other USC Olympians in attendance included current swimmers Stina Gardell (Sweden) and Kasia Wilk (Poland), current water polo player James Clark (Australia), Canadian track cyclist Joseph Veloce and junior sprinter Aaron Brown (Canada).
Perry and Villaraigosa were among a host of city officials who praised USC and its Olympic Heritage during the ceremony in the council chambers. USC was represented by 41 current and former athletes at the 2012 Olympics in London and set school records for gold (12) and overall medals (25). The Trojans' contingent represented 18 countries in seven sports (swimming, track and field, volleyball, beach volleyball, water polo, soccer and track cycling). USC also extended its streak of winning at least one gold medal in every summer Games since 1912.
"We couldn't be prouder," Villaraigosa said. "I'm a Bruin, but I've got an honorary doctorate from USC and I'm very proud of that. Today we honor these great Olympic athletes. We have one of the best universities in the world here in Los Angeles in USC. As a Bruin, I can tell you, I'm proud."
Said USC President Nikias: "We hold a special place in our heats at USC for the many student-athletes who display their remarkable talents by stepping onto the Olympic stage. They have defied great odds, overcome tremendous adversity and created great memories."

Flourishing or struggling: ideal leaders
15 June 2013 , 8:24 AM by Rob Minshull
Leaders are everywhere: at work, at home, in sport and - like them or not - in politics too.
But wherever they are or whoever he or she is, what are the styles and characteristics that Australians look for in our leaders? Is it someone who provides a clear sense of direction or is it someone who encourages participation?
Mark McCrindle is a social researcher who's been looking at what we want from our leaders, which leadership values we look for and just why leaders are so important in the world of business. He is talking to Warren Boland.

Strategic Plan
GBMC's Vision for the Future
In this era of healthcare reform, GBMC is moving toward a patient-centered, evidence-based medicine model where physicians and care teams focus on a patient's overall wellness and long-term care rather than episodic care. To accomplish this, we are making significant investments in healthcare information technology (EMR, CPOE) and are building a network of hospital and community-based healthcare providers (GBHA) to deliver integrated and coordinated care.
We are moving into the future with renewed energy and increasing insight and have adopted a new vision:
"To every patient, every time, we will provide the care that we would want for our own loved ones."
Strategic Plan Summary Statement
We are moving into the future with renewed energy and increasing insight and have adopted a new vision:
"To every patient, every time, we will provide the care that we would want for our own loved ones."
This transformation will include building relationships between patients and their healthcare team, comprised of physicians, nurse practitioners and healthcare navigators. This team will focus on a patient's wellness and long term care, rather than the traditional model of episodic care (i.e. waiting until an individual has a problem and then "fixing" that problem). In order to help us meet these objectives, we will implement the latest healthcare information technology tools such as Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE); reduce waste and improve operational performance utilizing LEAN tools; promote improved clinical outcomes through evidence-based medicine and continue educating system leaders; develop a network of community-based and GBMC employed clinical providers - Greater Baltimore Health Alliance (GBHA) - that will offer high quality and convenient healthcare.
The future of healthcare is about integrating care and access and addressing the overall wellness of the community. GBMC looks forward to embarking on this momentous opportunity.
GBMC HealthCare Vision Statement
As our national healthcare system evolves, for GBMC to maintain its status as a provider of the highest quality medical care to our community, we must transform our philosophy and organizational structure, and develop a model system for delivering patient-centered care.
We define patient-centered care as care that manages the patient's health effectively and efficiently while respecting the perspective and experience of the patient and the patient's family. Continuity of care and ease of navigation through a full array of services will be the rule. Our professional staff will be able to say with confidence that the guidance and medical care they are providing mirrors what they would want for their own family.
We will create the organizational and economic infrastructure required to deliver evidence-based, patient-centered care and for holding ourselves accountable for that care. This new organization will be defined by collaboration and improvement. Physicians will lead teams that will manage patient care.
We are moving into the future with renewed energy and increasing insight. We look forward to building relationships with both community-based and employed physicians that will form the foundation of Greater Baltimore Health Alliance. We welcome all those who share our vision of health care as it is transformed to meet the needs of our community and nation in the 21st century.
Vision Statement: "To every patient, every time, we will provide the care that we would want for our own loved ones."
Introduction to the Strategic Plan
The American health care system, which has not undergone major change since the inception of Medicare in 1966, is poised to transform into a system that will provide better health and better care at a lower cost through either a government mandate or continued market pressures, or both. This new system of care looks to reward organizations that promote healthy communities, while optimizing the care provided to individuals. There is an anticipated transition period of perhaps 10-15 years from the current fee-for-service system to payments to care for populations. The GBMC strategic planning process began in the summer of 2010 with the formation of the Strategic Planning Sub-Committee of the Board of Directors comprised of board members, medical staff and management. This group has engaged in an inclusive and transparent process that has involved members of all entities of GBMC HealthCare, along with the medical staff leadership and membership. The first milestone in this process occurred in October 2010 with a planning retreat, which resulted in a vision statement for GBMC HealthCare that affirmed the provision of the highest quality medical care to our community, while embracing health care reform. This vision is one of patient-centered care provided in partnership with our medical staff who shares to meet the needs of our community and nation in the 21st century.
In order to achieve this vision, a plan with 5 specific areas of focus that we are calling Pillars has been developed. Each pillar has underlying tactics to achieve measurable and sustainable results. The context for this plan was based on several structural, operational, market and financial assumptions detailed in Appendix C. Our strategic plan is the starting point for the creation of the annual operating plans and budgets.
As we begin the journey to transform our health care system, we must recognize that the current fee-for-service system of payment will be in effect for several years, and we must continue to optimize our performance under this system through revenue enhancement initiatives, while providing care in a cost effective manner.
Strategic Plan Pillars
The vision of GBMC HealthCare states that "we will provide the care that we would want for our own loved ones to every patient, every time." In order to achieve this vision, we must implement five (5) strategies that will support this vision, while creating the organizational and economic infrastructure required to deliver evidence-based, patient-centered care and for holding ourselves accountable for that care.
I. GBMC aims to create an enterprise-wide IT solution to support the transformation of clinical and operational processes. This strategy will be enveloped in a comprehensive information system strategic plan that will support the clinical, operational and financial reporting needs of the system.
Rationale: Information Technology will support the implementation of several initiatives such as Electronic Medical Records (EMR), which will be integrated with the hospital's clinical information system to build a seamless information network that marries the outpatient and inpatient records.
Examples: EMR has been implemented in GBMA practices and will also be provided for GBHA members; CPOE implementation is well underway hospital-wide.
Click here to learn more about GBHA.
II. GBMC aims to improve operational performance and to reduce unwanted variation by utilizing LEAN tools and rapid cycle improvement across the enterprise.
Rationale: We will execute opportunities for cost reduction that are critical to maintain financial viability during this transition period from fee-for-service payments to full risk capitation.
Examples: Expand the LEAN and rapid cycle improvement activities that will result in enterprise-wide savings; reduce the artificial variability in surgical scheduling to optimize the occupancy on surgical inpatient units and increase the utilization of our operating rooms (surgical smoothing initiative).
III. GBMC aims to build a system to continually improve clinical outcomes and the patient experience. Our goal to improve clinical outcomes will be accomplished through the implementation of an enterprise-wide education program and the development of an infrastructure that will support system leaders as they strive to meet the enterprise-wide goals.
Rationale: Commit to providing better health and better care at a lower cost by improving care coordination across the system.
Examples: Build an integrated quality and safety infrastructure; expand data collection and reporting; and strengthen and foster a culture of safety through the organization.
IV. GBMC aims to build a provider network to achieve its vision of developing a model system for delivering patient-centered care. We will accomplish this goal in partnership with our family of physicians as we provide accountable care to our multi-cultural community.
Rationale: We will form Greater Baltimore Health Alliance (GBHA) as a physician-governed organization populated by employed and aligned community physicians tied together with a common electronic health record to facilitate exchange of information and improve care.
Examples: Continuing to expand the GBMA network of physicians in the community with an emphasis on adding primary care physicians as well as building the GBHA network of providers.
V. GBMC aims to create new organizational capabilities to support our new strategies.
Rationale: The movement to a patient-centered care model will bring significant change throughout the organization. GBMC will initiate a patient-centered medical home model for care with our employees and dependents that promotes wellness and more effective utilization of health care services.
Examples: Improve our employee medical care plan design, and implement disease management strategies to more effectively manage costs; expand the training and development infrastructure to support the needs of the organization.

In similar fashion: first, all the chaos that unfolds later is preceded by a catastrophic event that creates massive gossip. Then, an unidentified creature (practically out of no where) runs rampant by destroying a city/town for all the wrong reasons just because we force it into a corner from the beginning.
Also, both movies kick off w/ little side productions as second stories using these little hand held type cameras that serve a greater purpose (presumably at least) by having captured live footage on the behalf of civilians.
In the end: the decision too evacuate along w/ the military in general both fail, and really this creature survives and basically wins in yet a still highly undefined climax of a plot, as our conclusion.
Bottom line: in essence, the premise appears very much the same.
I didn't understand it until Orlov called Salt "Comrade Chenkov". And the cliffhanger upset me.
I hate that he got back together with his ex wife and not Pippy. She was super cute and at one point in the movie it made it seem like they were building something?
