Academic Writing
Költségvetés £20-250 GBP
Having brought a new "Neopulse Spinner" Samsonite suitcase for the new term, Harry wanted to sell his old one. He put an advert in the local Hendon Times which stated:
"Second hand 'go explore' Expandable 4-wheel suitcase for sale: £150. Excellent condition. Email me on "Harry P@ [login to view URL]"
On Monday, Hermione called Harry, and asked if she could come and see the suitcase. Harry gave her his address and they arranged that Hermione would call around later that day to inspect it. After Hermione had seen the suitcase later that day, she texted Harry saying "I will buy your suitcase, but for £100, and can you also tell me whether you would include the spare wheels that you showed me?"
Harry Emailed back saying that he would not include the spare wheels, but that he would accept a lower price for £125. Harry also said that if he didn't hear from Hermione by the end of the week, the suitcase would be hers.
Hermione then wrote a letter to Harry later that night, saying she would buy the suitcase for £125 and not to worry about the spare wheels. Hermione posted the letter first class post on Tuesday morning.
However, the letter was addressed to "4 Private Drive" rather than the correct address of "4 Privet Drive" and so the letter never arrived at Harry's address.
On Friday evening, as Harry had not heard from Hermione at all, he telephoned Hermione and told her the deal was off. He then sold the suitcase to Hagrid.
Advise Hermione.

Sorry- expired
Sorry- expired
@Molly: Thanks for the reminder about the designer contest!! That's always a great place to get goodies and I always forget until like the third week LOL!!! TFS!
Well you're welcome and I think you are in for a treat this year. Looks like lots of great talent. It feels awesome to be doing a contest as a shop-operating designer rather than a "amateur" but competition is stiff... Good news for you guys... maybe not so great for me!
Molly - your kits look fabulous! Great job and good luck in the contest!
Oh Molly I love several of the Valentine's Chalk Ups!!! TYSVM!!!
Love the Office supplies!
I've been looking for school stuff as well... if you have a hint, please let me know!
Sue, if I come across any, I will definitely let you know!
You did a terrific design! You are very talented for what little resources they gave you, you made an adorable kit! You are very creative and a wonderful designer!!!
Thanks so much Sharon for saying that. I am definitely a CU user!
Love it, TYFS!
love that panda ~~ thanks
That is so cute, Molly!
Molly - I love this kit. The Panda is perfect and you've chosen great colours for him. Thank you!
Cute designs, do you have any for commercial use?
Very Cute!!
I love the little panda! I've been using the Chinese Orient blog train freebies to scrap some pictures from the China Pavilion at Epcot, but I don't want all the pages to look the same ... your zen kit is great for them too. Thanks!
Hey Molly, I just went to download your Play Along mini (SUPER cute, btw!!!!), as I was waiting for everyone to be done so I could download all at once. I am getting a "folder not found" message.... Is it still available??? I was so excited to get it!
@Beverly- oh wow, that's sweet of you to ask. I actually rely heavily on CU as a designer so I don't currently have a lot. THe Office Supplies sampler in this thread as well as the For Momma mini can both be used as CU- and with the exception of the banner in the For Momma, can be used as CU4CU. I have just started Andrea Gold's Photoshop and Illustrator classes as well as joining Chelle's Creations Designer Edition Club so there will be more CU stuff popping up here as time goes on. Also, I have been doing the designer challenges here at Pixel Scrapper (missed last week though) so you can look there too. Anything I create from scratch will have the Pixel Scrapper standard licensing which includes CU and CU4CU.
@Laura that's awesome!! thanks for letting me know! I would love to see the kit in action when you get the layout done!
@Heather Yes, sorry I did not put an expiration date here in the thread this time because I wasn't sure when I was going to release it. The kit is now available in my shop at With Love Studio along with a few add-ons. I saw your post at STS so check your private messages there. I sent you a coupon.
Thanks Molly, I look forward to your designs, great stuff.
I restristered for the Stuff to Scrap forum, but I never lets me sign in to grab you cu.
Really cute cu.
@Beverly- I am sorry you are having trouble. The contest has wrapped up so I updated the links here so you can get them from my download sites.
You are so sweet, Molly! Thank you!

Eureka! Bobbing for the Big Apple
by Scott LaFee
Sea level is a misnomer. The surface of the ocean varies greatly from place to place. Along the northeastern seaboard of the United States, for example, it's lower than it is farther out to sea.
Four billion meteorites fall to Earth each day, but most burn up in the atmosphere.
Multiple villains, including Napoleon, have been blamed for the loss of the Sphinx's nose. The likely reason is wind and weather wearing down the limestone.
A new computer model, however, suggests New Yorkers and others might want to buy some waders if climate change seriously raises sea levels over the next 100 years.
Created by researchers at Florida State University, the model suggests that climate change will alter the flow of the Gulf Stream and North Atlantic currents, which produce, among other things, the anomalous effect of lower sea levels along the northeast coast.
One possible result: FSU scientists say coastal waters could rise as much as 112 feet around New York City, Boston and Washington, D.C., by 2100. Some parts of Manhattan are just 5 feet above sea level.
Cities such as San Francisco, Tokyo and London are less at risk due to different local ocean conditions.
We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.
— Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)
What is the name of the world's largest number?
How can something be "new and improved"? If it's new, it didn't exist before, but if it's improved, it has to have existed previously.
The first flying bovine was "Elm Farm Ollie," a Missouri cow taken aloft and milked during the International Air Exposition of 1930. During the flight, Ollie produced 24 quarts, which were immediately sealed in cartons and parachuted — reportedly still warm — to thirsty spectators on the ground in St. Louis.
There is no such name. If someone were to claim a name, you would simply add a 1 to make a larger number. The term "googol," coined in 1938 by Milton Sirotta and popularized by his mathematician uncle, Edward Krasner, is the digit 1 followed by 100 zeros. A "googolplex" is a googol to the googol power, an astoundingly large number.
In his 1975 documentary "Cosmos," the astronomer-author Carl Sagan estimated that writing a googolplex in base-10 numerals would be physically impossible, since doing so would require more space than the known universe occupies. On the other hand, Sagan noted that "a googolplex is precisely as far from infinity as the number 1."
4 — Number of meteorites, in billions, that fall to Earth each day. Most are microscopic and burn up in the atmosphere.

Various villains have been accused of blowing the nose off the 6,500-year-old Sphinx in Egypt, among them assorted armies of England, France, Germany and the Middle East.
Napoleon is often cited as the most likely culprit, but there are sketches of a noseless Sphinx dating back to 1737, 32 years before Napoleon was born.
The most likely causes for the nose loss, experts say, were wind and weather acting on the soft limestone.

Rogers Park resident Tim Sarrantonio wasn't going to let his 30th birthday pass like any other day. He made sure to ring in his third decade in style.
On Sunday, April 29, Sarrantonio hosted "The Timtacular," a massive birthday party with a philanthropic twist. More than 800 people were invited to Goose Island Wrigleyville to be entertained by live music and stand-up comedy from Cameron Esposito while at the same time supporting a handful local charities.
"All these people would be gathering anyway," Sarrantonio said. "I thought, why don't we turn all this energy into a force for good."
The $60 entry fee to "The Timtacular," gave attendees Goose Island food and drink plus entertainment from the Neo-futurists, stand-up comedian Cameron Esposito and local band Sexy Fights.
All told Sarrantonio raked in over $4,600 which he will distribute between four different charities: the Neo-Futurists, Arts of Life, ARISE Chicago and Reading With Pictures.
Sarrantonio started planning the event back in September, and he said it will be a long time before he ever considers doing something like this again.
"I need a little break," Sarrantonio said, "but I hope this can be a template for other people who want to volunteer or want to give back."

Ah here we go, a little bit of anticipated beach-posing.. how could I not? I revived this beautiful belt on a cold winter day and frankly felt a bit confused how to make it work with all the clothing that had to be worn to survive. But I did the right decision bringing it with me to Thailand, most of my skirts look weirdly naked with out it now. Truly one of those things you don't know how much you really need until it's there, sitting securely on your waist.

This fancy bird, a migratory American Woodcock, was rescued by High Line gardener and bird enthusiast Maryanne on Friday. It was found huddled in a doorway on West 20th Street, stunned but not visibly injured — she guessed the little guy had flown into the side of a building and had been knocked to the ground.
Maryanne whisked the woodcock, a shorebird also known amusingly as a "timberdoodle", up to the High Line and put it in a dark cardboard box to calm it down. It was soon picked up by the Urban Park Rangers for rehabilitation. We wish this (relatively) exotic beauty the best of luck in its recovery.

Housekeeper, Interrupted
And I am really, really bad at it.
I am a good cook and a good mom. I don't doubt those things, for the most part, except on emotional-trainwreck days, and we all have those. But the homemaking and housekeeping part of this life? I consistently stink at it.
In terms of career, if I had worked part-time and then full-time at the same job for fifteen years and the end product were this bad, I would feel obligated to look for a different job. Clearly this is not the one I am suited for.
I have friends who keep very clean houses and I often wonder how they do it. After a moment's consideration I usually remember that one or both of these things are true: 1) they have fewer than four kids at home or 2) they don't read books.
Maybe I am maligning those friends. Maybe they clean furiously without rest for eight hours each day and still take an hour to read Proust in the evening (full disclosure: I have never read Proust either). But when I compare my home to theirs (which, I know, is a deadly stupid thing to do - no good can come of it), it is slightly mollifying to remember that the things I would have to give up to be that tidy are things I would never be willing to give up.
But. But, but, but...
I am still really bad at this. My kitchen is always cluttered and seems to always have cocoa ring stains on the counter. For days at a time, my floors are actually crunchy. My mom-in-law, who is a lovely and generous person, always makes the place more orderly when she visits, and always does it without (verbal OR non-verbal) comment, though I am sure it must exasperate her (another full disclosure: her son, to whom I am married, is even worse at tidiness than I am, so clearly sometimes it skips a generation). My own mother refuses to go into my basement because the tasks to be done there overwhelm and depress her, and she often gives me gentle pep talks about how I need to address certain chores immediately and regularly so they don't pile up and feel too big to ever finish.
I clean, of course. We could not function if I didn't. When I wrote up my NaNoWriMo schedule, I became aware of how much I clean. I don't rest much. My kids get very excited if I sit down before evening reading time. But while I do enough to keep us clothed and relatively non-germy, it is not enough to be tidy. Here I am at 39, a decided lackluster performer at my chosen career. Maybe the house will be cleaner when all the kids are in school, but only if I never homeschool, and part of me still holds on to that dream. And I am wondering what comes next.
What about you? Are you of the cleanliness-is-next-to-godliness school? If you could give up cooking or cleaning, which would it be? How does the state of your home affect your life in general?
18 comments:
I am a binge housekeeper/housewife. I will go for days on end, barely getting the dishes washed and dinners cooked, while I focus on a particular project (projects are to me what books are to you-- gardening, home deco, sewing, etc). And then, project finished, I spend the next few days swooping down on every spilled drop of water like an avenging fury, washing the children's clothes before they even take them off, and generally behaving like a Martha Stewart on speed...ReplyDelete
Balance, shmalance.
I am really sensitive to my physical environment so keeping things picked up and relatively clean is an exercise in self-care in many ways. For me, "picked up" is more important than "actually clean", but both can leave me feeling stressed out and unhappy. For home to be a peaceful, calm place for me to be, I have to invest the time/energy to keep things tidy. I think it does mean I make trade-offs; I will pick up a room or vacuum before sitting down to sew or read.ReplyDelete
That being said, I would definitely give up cleaning before cooking. I do not enjoy cleaning at all (necessary evil, in my book), while I love to cook.

I could have written this post, except for the Ph.D. part and having been a SAHM for only three years. I wonder daily how I can have been in continual motion all day - with the exception of sitting down to nurse a baby - and still have seemingly accomplished nothing.ReplyDelete

I could have written this post with the exception of the Ph.D. stuff and having been a SAHM for only three years. I often come to the end of a day, completely exhausted, and wonder how I could have been in continuous motion all day and still have seemingly done nothing.ReplyDelete
I am not a good housekeeper, not when I was a SAHM or now that I am working full-time. I worry that the kids will think cleaning is something you do sporadically, usually when you have guests coming over.ReplyDelete
My housekeeping skill level comes pretty close to yours. But this doesn't mean you're a bad homemaker. I found that when I made and--for a few weeks--kept resolutions to keep a tidy house, the family was not happier. I drove them crazy, in fact. Because children and husbands cannot see most of the dirt and disorder that the cleaning maniac mother can see. But they can taste good cooking, and be enchanted by the read aloud times, and have a million happy memories of a comfortable (if not clean) home, and of all the family activities that you, the mom, have staged for them. As you already mentioned, the things you'd have to give up to have a clean house constitute the good stuff.ReplyDelete
I used to keep a clean house.ReplyDelete
And then I got busier.
Now the house is a disaster, and I wish I could tell you that I don't care, but I do. A lot.
I am totally depressed by the state of the house, to be honest.
(No one else in my family cares even slightly.)
Currently my kitchen looks as if someone went through our cabinets and dumped everything out onto the counters and then filled up the sink. Yup. That bad. I am an awful housekeeper, even before 3 kids I could never quite get the hang of it. I am getting better with each child, however I"m not willing to have the 20 that would be necessary to make me a good housekeeper.ReplyDelete
I have to be honest and say that I am a little obsessive about keeping my house clean, and at this stage in life it is the thing I wish I could change about myself! I feel frazzled when the house is torn apart, but with small children how can the house be anything but? I really, really wish I knew how to turn that switch off and carve out more time for reading and writing . .. or better yet, playing with my kids!ReplyDelete
I wrote this post while I was at the coffee shop, and when I came home I found that on my husband's watch, my three year old had gotten into the flour and left powdery evidence on counter, floor, chair and inside my husband's coffee cup. Exhibit A.ReplyDelete
Daria, I see your point. The only time I tried fanatically to keep the house clean was when we were trying to sell it, and I was a pretty awful mother for a while. My fuse was reeeeeaaaally short.
Slouchy, I wish I didn't care either. This post is evidence it bothers me.
Jessica, I hadn't thought about tidy people wishing they could be content with a little more untidiness. I was thinking dark, competitive thoughts instead, which is never good. But you're right - there can be something freeing about being able to live this way.
Like lifemoreabundant said, I could have written this minus the PhD part! Ok, so I have only been a full-time SAHM for less than a year...but I already knew I was a lousy housekeeper before I had a baby. Like Julia, I am sensitive to my environment, and place more importance on tidy than clean...but I am also terribly prone to lethargy. I could never give up reading books, and I spend a wee bit too much online.ReplyDelete
I find that when I try to clean when I feel averse to it, I am very inefficient. Also, resentment builds within me towards my husband, my parents, my life, and the inanimate objects in my home. Ridiculous, but true, and so it is usually not worth it for me to force myself to clean. Instead, I try to use that time to be productive in other areas...cooking, writing, exercising, catching up on relationships, etc.
Luckily, about once a week, if not more, I get a burst of energy and efficiency, and I am able to get everything in order. If only it could stay that way because I genuinely LOVE a clean, tidy, orderly home.
I cannot think straight in the midst of clutter, though real cleaning is something I rarely do. We have 4 kids aged 5 and under, three of whom I am nursing. In order to cope, we've gotten rid of almost everything, even *gasp* some books. Kids must pick up and put away all toys before each meal or they don't eat (they don't have many toys, which frees their imagination and makes putting away quick). I do very short bursts of cleaning/tidying activity, primarily washing up the dishes in the kitchen and wiping down the kitchen counters after each meal and before I sit down to nurse. I also do spot cleaning when someone pees or drops oatmeal on the floor. When I take a shower, which is twice a week, I use my wash cloth to wipe down the bathroom sink before I throw the wash cloth in the wash. What I have described is all the cleaning I do. Though I do mop the floors annually, and I clean the toilet prior to having guests.ReplyDelete
I am not a domestic goddess by any stretch of the imagination. I hate to cook, I can't sew, yada yada yada. My house is almost never spotless (4 kids, a full-time job and a side gig teaching piano one night a week) but it stays relatively picked up, mostly because I involve my three oldest kids in keeping it that way.ReplyDelete
Once an evening we have a 10 minute pick-up where I set the timer and we run around like crazy picking up the kitchen/living room/hallway/family room. They actually sort of enjoy trying to beat the clock (yes, I have them brainwashed).
They are also responsible for keeping their rooms clean and for helping to fold/hang-up their own laundry. Every night I dump at least one load of clean wash onto the couch and we all sit and fold it together. It only takes a couple of minutes with everyone helping. My husband does the dishes every night. We all help clear the table. I clean the rest of the kitchen every night and sweep/vacuum/wipe whatever needs it. I clean the bathrooms once a week.
I am just supremely thankful that my kids are old enough to help out now (7, 8, and 10) (the 2 year old is useless though ;>) and that they do it without much resistance. They really are a huge help. If it was JUST up to me I would sink under the collective weight of the filth, I just know it.
I can so relate. I am a rotten housekeeper. I have a certain sense of decorating style, but not much. However, things were really bad when I was a SAHM to little kids. They're better now. I'm still not a good housekeeper but I am better than I used to be.ReplyDelete
My advice: make your kids do chores--esp in visible places. I make mine do the kitchen every night. Also, you are prob doing more cleaning than you realize you are. You will continue doing this as the kids gets older and slightly less messy. So by the time your kids are teens, they'll be cleaning the kitchen every night and your house will be fairly clean because you get accustomed to doing a certain amount of cleaning while they're little and you keep doing it. This is what I did and while my house isn't clean if you look in the corners, it's relatively unembarrassing these days. Hang in there! There is so much more to life than a spotless environment!
I, too, was a terrible housekeeper.ReplyDelete
Try Flylady http://www.flylady.net/ It's hokey, but it works. There are many, many tips testimonials about involving your children. It helps them and you.
You may scoff at first but just doing a couple of things daily (shiny sink: the goal is to keep the sink empty; and making your bed in the a.m.) can give you such a lift that you'll be encouraged to modify your movements around the house to expand on this. And- I'm now addicted to "decluttering." Even if you don't ever get to the point of "flying" (in her words) your life will be much, much better. I speak from experience.
Mind you, as I recall my mother kept a beautiful house with 5 kids by banning us from most parts of it most of the time. Most repeated parental directive? "Go play outside." Then she went for her Ph.D. and hired a 3-day a week Mexican grandma to keep house and watch us. O! the halcyon days.

If ever you write a book, keep this style. It is real but beautiful. Well done.ReplyDelete
I hired a housecleaner. I have three boys under four, and one is five months old, and I have an incurable addiction to books and blogs and words. I will read ANYTHING. I have learned I have to make time for quiet, introspective time and for reading or I will go crazy, which is worse than going broke. I think.ReplyDelete
Yes. This post reminds me of all the reasons why I love you as a blogger. And how come I just BARELY found out that you were back to blogging? I feel like I've wasted MONTHS!ReplyDelete
I'm not a great housekeeper either, but I will second using the built in slave system of parenting. I have four (#5 will be born next week!) kids eight and under, and they CAN do some chores. My six year old cleans toilet bowls (not perfectly, but better than nothing, which is what happens when I'm in charge of that job), my dishwasher gets unloaded (lots of stuff gets left on the counter for me to put away, but again, better than nothing).
But I think really you've hit the nail on the head: sometimes (most times) I'm not a great housekeeper because I've CHOSEN SOMETHING ELSE to do instead. Something that clearly means more to me than absolute order and tidiness.

NEW ORLEANS — A new generation of parades is hitting the streets of New Orleans for Mardi Gras, and they're throwing away old traditions of big, glitzy floats and celebrity kings and queens for smaller, greener and sometimes naughtier floats with a hipster sensibility.
These smaller krewes, as the parades or marching groups are called, draw on the talents of local artists and satirize everything from politics to local customs.
One float, labeled "Benz Over," spoofed the recent sale of naming rights for the Superdome to Mercedes-Benz. The float carried a small replica of the Dome with large buttocks for a roof. Another krewe's floats are set atop people-powered adult tricycles fashioned from material salvaged after Hurricane Katrina.
A group called Krewe du Vieux chose "Crimes Against Nature" as its theme, and when it hit the streets recently as carnival season got under way, there was no doubt this was not the usual Mardi Gras parade. One of its floats made fun of surgical procedures used to "improve" on nature with a giant pair of inflatable breasts rising and falling throughout the parade. And instead of handing out traditional beads, some of the scantily clad krewe members handed out condoms.
But even though they're infusing the carnival parades with new ideas, in some ways the alternative krewes are drawing on very old Mardi Gras traditions that predate the era of automobiles and motorized floats. Krewe du Vieux uses mules, or sometimes bicycles, to draw its 17 small floats, which are built on boat trailers no more than 8 feet long and 12 feet high. Krewe members also march with their floats rather than riding on them, and each float is accompanied by a New Orleans brass band.
Compare that to some of New Orleans' biggest and best-known mainstream parades, where the floats might be 50 feet long and 18 feet high, carrying dozens of riders. Some massive floats — like the raucous Bacchus parade's Baccagator float, a giant alligator, 110 feet long — can hold more than 100 riders.
The alternative krewes see Mardi Gras as a chance for individuals to exercise their creativity and engage in satire. "The coolest thing is that people do it just to do it," said Jim Gelarden, a member of Krewe du Vieux. "It's just for fun. There is no social status at stake."
Smaller groups get regular parade permits, rather than Mardi Gras permits, said officer Ross Bourgeois of the New Orleans Police Department. This allows them more leeway in what they can do and where they can go. The regular Mardi Gras parades are so big they're no longer allowed to roll through the narrow streets of the French Quarter, but smaller groups can still navigate the city's oldest and most famous neighborhood.
"These are groups that fly way under the radar," said Arthur Hardy, a Mardi Gras historian and publisher of a Mardi Gras guide. "They don't have to follow the rules the bigger groups do. They are free to be a bit on the bawdy side, and to do very new and striking things."
Mardi Gras always falls on the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday. Many parties, balls and parades large and small are held for several weeks before the holiday, which this year falls on Feb. 21, and streets are typically packed with revelers to watch the biggest parades roll the weekend before. These traditional parades offer glittering spectacles as well as a chance to scramble for tons of "throws," as the beads, doubloon coins and other items tossed to the crowds are called.
The smaller groups, in contrast, offer spectators a different, more intimate experience. "I love the offbeat parades," said Mary Ann Gautraeux, who said she tries to take in as many as she can each year. "The people in the parade are right there with the crowd. It makes you feel so much more a part of everything."
The number of groups that stage small parades or march before or during one of the bigger parades is growing, as are their memberships, said Ann Marie Coviello, a member of a krewe called Box of Wine.
"We started out as just a few people walking down St. Charles (Avenue)," Coviello said. "Now we have a real parade because our membership has grown so much."
Smaller groups also appeal to New Orleans' artists' community, allowing them to participate in ways that aren't possible with the larger parades, according to Karina Nathan, from the Krewe of Kolossos. "We hope to see more people use our local artists, especially for throws, instead of getting the ones made in China," she said. "We would like to Mardi Gras be greener."
Kolossos uses recycled materials to build its small floats, which are mounted on adult tricycles rescued from Hurricane Katrina debris. Their costumes and even the throws they produce are all made from recycled material.
The Krewe of 'tit R?x carries smallness to extremes. (The group's name is pronounced T-Rex but printed with an upside-down "e'' after the Rex organization, which sponsors one of the biggest parades, threatened to sue them.) The krewe's 25 floats, no bigger than large shoe boxes on wheels, will be pulled through the streets by krewe members in formal attire, who also hand out handmade throws. The small but elaborate floats are well-crafted takes on traditional Carnival floats. Some carry Barbie dolls dressed up as royalty, and many are decorated with tiny Christmas lights.
As with other alternative groups, membership in 'tit R?x has grown. Jeremy Yuslum, one of the founders, thinks that's partly because of Hurricane Katrina, which almost destroyed the city in 2005.
"I think that people who stayed through the storm, or left and came back, feel a much stronger allegiance to our traditions," Yuslum said. "I think people have taken a new look at the city and what we have here."

Thanks to legislation approved during the 2013 regular session, the state will set up an Office of Inspector General charged specifically with investigating fraud and abuse in the $5 billion-a-year Medicaid program.
Under Act 1499 of 2013, the inspector general must have at least 10 years' experience investigating fraud, prosecuting fraud, auditing or comparable experience in detecting fraud in the health care industry.
The act sets up a series of penalties ranging from a misdemeanor to a Class A felony, if it is proven that a medical provider submitted false information in order to claim more than $1 million in Medicaid payments. The Office of Inspector General will have 33 employees, including an attorney, and will also investigate allegations that recipients knowingly supplied false information in order to fraudulently receive Medicaid services.
In addition to making criminal referrals, the office also will take legal steps to recover misspent funds.
Medicaid is administered through the state Human Services Department, the largest single state agency. There already exists a unit within the department to eliminate fraud and abuse, but a crucial provision in Act 1499 will remove those investigators from within the department, thus making them independent.
The governor will appoint the inspector general and the Senate must confirm the appointment. The office will work with local, state and federal law enforcement agencies. Audit findings of the Inspector General may be turned over to prosecutors to be used as evidence of suspected criminal acts.
The Inspector General will have power to issue subpoenas in order to compel the attendance of witnesses to be examined under oath, and to compel people receiving Medicaid funds to produce documents, records and other forms of written evidence.
The Inspector General's Office can take legal action to exclude providers and vendors from the Medicaid program, and it will make regular reports to the legislature. Providers who receive more than $750,000 a year from Medicaid will have to adopt a compliance program, which will outline how billing errors and overpayments are to be corrected.
Act 1499 becomes effective on July 1.
Medicaid is a government health coverage program for low-income families, people with disabilities and elderly people who reside in long term care facilities.
The legislature enacted other laws to limit Medicaid fraud, including Act 1265 to set up a computer system within the Human Services Department for verifying the eligibility of Medicaid applicants. The system will electronically check the applicants' income and citizenship status.
Act 1436 requires the Human Services Department, which administers Medicaid, and the Department of Finance and Administration, which collects state taxes, to share information to make sure that all Medicaid providers have paid their state income taxes. Providers who have not paid their taxes will be terminated from the Medicaid program.
Providers include physicians, hospitals, pharmacists, rehabilitation facilities, therapists, businesses that sell or rent medical equipment, dentists, hospices, long term care facilities, mental health professionals, assisted living facilities, nurses, businesses that sell prosthetics, companies that provide testing services such as X-rays and chiropractors. Numerous other medical fields are included in the list of providers who can be reimbursed by the government for treating Medicaid patients.

Kite was signed by the Tigers from the independent Sioux Falls Canaries of the American Association of Independent Professional Baseball league. While playing for the Canaries, Kite was 1-1 with a 2.31 ERA and one save in 21 appearances. The Tennessee native was signed as a non-drafted free agent by the Cleveland Indians in 2004.
"Getting this opportunity has been great for me," Kite said. "I think it all started in college as coach Skole prepared me for professional ball. The coaches at ETSU do a phenomenal job and really have a great program on and off of the field. Coach Skole has been a great influence in my everyday life, and the number of players he has playing professional ball is a testament of how great a coach he is."
Kite had to persevere to get where he is now after being released by the Indians in 2005, and then tearing his labrum soon after signing with the Mariners in 2006. Kite signed with Sioux Falls after rehabbing his injury and felt like his arm had not recovered in his first couple appearances. At one point Kite considered retirement, but after talking to his manager Kite decided to keep going. His decision finally paid off as he finally regained velocity and was once again dominant on the mound.
The Philadelphia Phillies originally looked to be the choice for Kite after showing heavy interest, but the Tigers jumped in and picked up his contract before the Phillies could pull the trigger. This past weekend Kite earned his first win against the Reading Phillies. The Greenville, Tenn. native entered in the bottom of the seventh with the game tied at 2-2, but after recording three quick outs the Seawolves scored the go ahead run in the top of the eighth defeating the Phillies, 3-2. Kite has made three appearances for Detroit, tossing 4.1 innings of scoreless ball and allowing only two hits while striking out three.
"I am so proud of Josh," said head ETSU baseball coach Tony Skole. "He is a great story and has been a great example of perseverance and determination. Seeing him develop from a freshman at ETSU to where he is now is quite remarkable. He had a great career at ETSU and pitched in a lot of big games for us. Josh has always had electric stuff, he just needed to harness it and stay healthy. When you understand that less than one percent of those who play high school baseball actually get an opportunity to play professionally, it makes you realize how far Josh has come. It has been enjoyable for all those in the Buccaneer Baseball family to watch his success."

RESEARCHERS from Southern Illinois University — Carbondale have developed a transgenic corn that can weather a drought while yielding roughly 10% more than unmodified corn. The researchers point out that true drought resistance, where the corn goes on growing when there is no water, does not exist. However, the transgenic corn suffers only slightly in drought conditions and then recovers quickly. The yield advantage does not occur in wet years, when the transgenic corn performs much the same as regular corn.
The new corn can capture 10% more nitrogen than unmodified corn. Corn containing the new gene could go on the market in the next three to five years.

Solo Motorsports' Bronco II Baja PrerunnerPosted in Features on October 21, 2013
We happened to stop by Solo Motorsports' shop in Covina, CA over the weekend and came across the Raddest little Bronco II ever.
This thing is still sporting the factory 2.9-liter V6 along with the factory 5-speed manual. Bobby at Solo Motorsports tells us that its has over 10,000 hard charging prerunning miles on it from Baja, Mexico alone.
Of course the front end of this Bronco II was swapped out in favor of Solo's 4-inch wider per side Cut and Turn Dana 35 Twin Traction Beam front end. A pair of King coilovers and Bypass shocks at all four corners help soak up the whooped out desert roads while prerunning before races down in Baja.
Bobby tells us the 35-inch BFGoodrich Baja T/A Project race tires have held up great throughout the constant desert abuse it sees.
In case you're wondering, weight distribution needs to be dialed in perfectly otherwise the truck won't ride as well as it does. To make sure it's always balanced, the spare 35-inch BFGoodrich Baja TA race tire sits forward of the rear axle while all the camping, tools and recovery gear sit as close to the rear of the front seats as possible to keep the weight balance in check.
What do you think, is this the coolest little Bronco II you've ever seen?

Scaredy Dog! Understanding and Rehabilitating Your Reactive Dog by Ali Brown
from Amazon: Book Description
When dogs growl at other dogs, lunge at people, and bark at everything it's often mislabeled as "aggression." But most aggression is fear-based and should be treated as such. The appropriate term for this constellation of behaviors is "reactivity."
This book helps the trainer and dedicated dog owner to understand the reactive dog and help him change for the better. The process is not an easy one, but once the changes begin to take shape, owners become so encouraged that the rest of the process suddenly becomes easy!
All training methods and classroom techniques are based on fun and on the development of a 'working relationship' with your dog. 125 pages, with over 50 photographs and illustrations to help you recognize and solve problems.

Animals in Translation -- Using the Mysteries of Autism to Decode Animal Behaviour by Temple Grandin and Catherine Johnson
from Amazon: From Publishers Weekly
Starred Review. Philosophers and scientists have long wondered what goes on in the minds of animals, and this fascinating study gives a wealth of illuminating insights into that mystery. Grandin, an animal behavior expert specializing in the design of humane slaughter systems, is autistic, and she contends that animals resemble autistic people in that they think visually rather than linguistically and perceive the world as a jumble of mesmerizing details rather than a coherent whole. Animals—cows, say, on their way through a chute—are thus easily spooked by novelties that humans see as trivialities, such as high-pitched noises, drafts and dangling clothes. Other animals accomplish feats of obsessive concentration; squirrels really do remember where each acorn is buried. The portrait she paints of the mammalian mind is both alien and familiar; she shows that beasts are capable of sadistic cruelty, remorse, superstition and surprising discernment (in one experiment, pigeons were taught to distinguish between early period Picasso and Monet). Grandin (Thinking in Pictures) and Johnson (coauthor of Shadow Syndromes) deploy a simple, lucid style to synthesize a vast amount of research in neurology, cognitive psychology and evolutionary biology, supplementing it with Grandin's firsthand observations of animal behavior and her own experiences with autism, engaging anecdotes about how animals interact with each other and their masters, and tips on how to pick and train house pets. The result is a lively and absorbing look at the world from animals' point of view.

From Scientific American
Temple Grandin has been known to crawl through slaughterhouses to get a sense of what the animals there are experiencing. An autistic woman who as a child was recommended for institutionalization, Grandin has managed not only to enter society's mainstream but ultimately to become prominent in animal research. An associate professor at Colorado State University, she designs facilities used worldwide for humane handling of livestock. She also invented a "hug machine" (based on a cattle-holding chute) that calms autistic children. In Animals in Translation, co-authored with science writer Catherine Johnson, Grandin makes an intriguing argument that, psychologically, animals and autistic people have a great deal in common—and that both have mental abilities typically underestimated by normal people. The book is a valuable, if speculative, contribution to the discussion of both autism and animal intelligence, two subjects on which there is little scientific consensus. Autistics, in Grandin's view, represent a "way station" between average people, with all their verbal and conceptual abilities, and animals. In touring animal facilities, Grandin often spots details—a rattling chain, say, or a fluttering piece of cloth—that disturb the animals but have been overlooked by the people in charge. She also draws on psychological studies to show how oblivious humans can be to their surroundings. Ordinary humans seem to be less detail-oriented than animals and autistics. Grandin argues that animals have formidable cognitive capabilities, albeit specialized ones, whereas humans are cognitive generalists. Dogs are smell experts, birds are migration specialists, and so on. In her view, some animals have a form of genius—much as autistic savants can perform feats of memory and calculation far beyond the abilities of average people. Some dogs, for example, can predict when their owner is about to have a seizure. Delving into animal emotion, aggression and suffering, Grandin gives tips that may be useful for caretakers of pets and farm animals. She also notes that humans seem to need, and thrive on, the proximity of animals. Indeed, she states provocatively, in the process of becoming human we gave up something primal, and being around animals helps us get a measure of that back.

For the Love of a Dog -- Understanding Emotion in You and Your Best Friend by Patricia B. McConnell
from Amazon: From Publishers Weekly
Animal behaviorist, dog trainer, syndicated radio talk show host and prolific author on all things canine, McConnell (The Other End of the Leash) presents a compelling combination of stories, science and practical advice to show how understanding emotions in both people and dogs can improve owners' relationships with their pets. This is more than a simple dog-training book: much of what McConnell discusses concerns how dog owners can learn "the language" of dog by recognizing important signals and reading them correctly. She provides numerous helpful examples of how owners can observe dog behavior, especially differences in posture and facial expressions, in order to help dogs be better behaved and help dog owners to be better handlers; her discussion of the meaning of a dog's "tongue flicks" is alone worth the price of the book. Her overall goal is to help owners provide their pets with "a sense of calm, peaceful benevolence," and she skewers current dog-training fads that emphasize "dominance" over a dog. "Don't fool yourself: if you yell at your dog for something he did twenty seconds ago, you're not training him; you're merely expressing your own anger." (On sale Aug. 15)

From Booklist
Understanding what drives the behavior of our pet dogs is McConnell's goal. She teaches readers to understand the emotional environment of their dogs' actions and helps them to reprogram undesirable behaviors. This is not a book on how to train dogs, but McConnell's examination of cases from her veterinary practice, backed up by her scientific study of animal behavior, will help readers better understand their closest companions. Whether discussing separation anxiety, fear biting, or simple canine happiness, McConnell explains the emotional state of each dog and how this drives the observed behavior. One gentle Labrador was traumatized by an aggressive boy and had begun to growl and snap at all human males--he was cured by simple therapy involving habituation to nice behavior and treats from men and boys. A dog that was terrified of thunder was trained to go to his safe place--a heavily insulated, very quiet doghouse. McConnell's main message is for readers to observe their own dogs and to understand the emotions behind their actions, both good and bad. Nancy Bent

Not a concern, just thought it was an interesting article.
Although I have wondered about her character and fitness evaluation (maybe CA is a little more lax than most other states). I also imagined jurors that have watched her tapes or even judges or peers. Do you think it would affect her credibility; being taken seriously?

Congresswoman Kristi Noem (R-SD) has introduced the "Livestock Disaster Protection Act," which would provide a safety net for livestock producers. The legislation would renew the Livestock Indemnity Program (LIP), the Livestock Forage Program (LFP), and the Emergency Livestock Assistance Program (ELAP) for five years and would apply retroactively to cover losses in fiscal years 2012 and 2013. Congresswoman Noem said, "The extreme weather we see across America – from drought to flood to freezes to the extreme heat – demonstrates the importance of providing a strong safety net." She plans to try and have the bill adopted as part of the House Agriculture Committee's farm bill.

The Linux Support Call HOWNOTTO
Windows ME, Stupid Scripts, Uppity Customers Making DemandsLinuxPlanet Classics: "No," the technician explained, "Linux is probably causing this problem and it needs to come off the machine." Michael Hall's classic battle with Dell tech support was first published July 16, 2001. Has anything really changed?
Portland, Oregon is something in the vicinity of 3000 miles away from Charlottesville, Virginia. I drove all 3000 of them in a 17 foot U-Haul the week before last. It's not a bad drive, either. The obligatory stop in Wall, South Dakota netted a collection of Jackalope placemats and moody cowboy art, which brightened up the second half of the trip considerably.
On the evening I was in Sheridan, Wyoming, though, it decided to take a dive, reporting at boot that it only had half the RAM I knew it contained. I rebooted, it reported an accurate count, and I forgot about it. Forgot about it, that is, until it began to reboot at random. Depending on the circumstances, it would reboot and report the correct amount of RAM, or reboot and not report the correct amount of RAM, but it seldom stayed running for more than five minutes without spontaneously rebooting.
A useful random bit of advice for anyone interested in their own cross-country move I can offer is that if your mail-gathering device suddenly proves unable to gather mail, it's an awfully good idea to unsubscribe to the Linux kernel mailing list... especially if you have a two week wait until you can shed your dialup connection in favor of DSL. I didn't do this and suffered horribly on arrival in Portland.
The warranty on the Inspiron is pretty straightforward: if it's broke, I have a year of them coming on out to fix it wherever I happen to be. I called Dell support full of high hopes: after all, it was forgetting how much RAM it had, the diagnostics (and some RAM stick swapping) revealed there was nothing wrong with the RAM in it... oughta be a quick one.
Still Screaming? Then the Cure Worked
Our first HOWNOTTO, then, is to assume that tech support for any company cares what you think or what your diagnosis is. Much the same way Army medics have special troubleshooting flowcharts for the human body, support technicians have a program of their own. Much like Army medics, they don't care what you think, or how much you cry as you undergo whatever cure they have in store for you. I know about Army medics and their troubleshooting flowcharts because I saw one pulled out when I reported a paratrooping injury that involved being unable to lay down or turn my head more than five degrees to either side without screaming. My own diagnosis, without the benefit of the flow chart, was "painkillers, lots of them." The medic and his flowchart agreed that a cautious regimen of Motrin in miserly amounts and a quick return to duty would help with the screaming.
The cure, in my particular case, first involved running some diagnostics that came on a CD. I pointed out that I'd already run all the diagnostics, but the tech shrugged this off and asked me to run them again. In the spirit of cooperation and out of a desire for a quick resolution, I booted the CD, ran the diagnostics, made small talk with the tech, before reporting that no... by gosh... there was nothing wrong with the RAM I had in the machine.
The second step of the cure, then, involved a session with debug.exe. I then did the second HOWNOTTO of this column: I admitted that I wasn't running Windows on this laptop, and hadn't, in fact, ever run Windows on it. Its first bootup was into an install CD for Debian. That made the cure all the more painful, because the tech became suddenly pleased with the fact that the "cure" actually entailed overwriting the partition table on the machine and reinstalling WindowsME.
I am, by nature, not a contentious sort of person. "Go along to get along" is my creed, and I can count on one hand the number of times I've raised my voice in anger or strident dissent in the past four years. In this instance, I remained true to my nature, but not before offering, in fairly polite tones, the following bit of insight into the situation:
"I've had this machine for close to a year now, and I really have tweaked the Linux installation I've got on here to a point where it's very nice. I've explained that the real issue is appearing before the bootloader ever appears at startup... it's plainly a hardware problem of some kind. Maybe we could reconsider this step?"
"No," the technician explained, "Linux is probably causing this problem and it needs to come off the machine."

A stolen kiss beneath the sweeping, graceful arms of an enormous willow tree on the grounds of Chateau de Masillan in Provence.
Elizabeth and Michael. For four years in college they secretly admired one another from a distance. They had so many friends in common. They moved in the same social circles. Early on he had noticed her fire and spunk, her delicate dark-haired beauty and a certain freedom and self-assurance with which she moved through the world. She seemed to him an original in a place where people had quite a conservative vision of what a woman should look like. She had noticed him too, as, it must be said, had every single one of her girlfriends. Tall, dark and handsome in the very best way, confident and friendly, Michael was all the buzz. But there was always either another boyfriend or girlfriend; both presumed the other would not be interested; the timing was never fortuitous. During that freshman year, all of Elizabeth's girlfriends "friended" Michael on Facebook, as did she. He happily accepted every single request…except hers. Again and again over the years she tried, but he never made the connection. And then, one of Elizabeth's closest friends, sensing how similar Elizabeth and Michael were and deciding that something simply had to be done, literally pushed them together at a party just two days before graduation. Instantly, they fell madly in love. Together they moved to New York. And a year later, after a proposal in the Luxembourg Gardens in Paris, they were married in Provence, with the mistral winds singing through the plane trees. Their moment had finally arrived.
A tender gesture of love.
Because true elegance lies in simplicity, the bridal bouquet was composed of lush cream peonies and olive leaves.
Elizabeth, her sister and three best friends bathed in the fading light of day.
A New Orleans jazz band filled the sky with the sound of Elizabeth and Michael's southern home.
A single, endlessly long table seated every one of the 65 wedding guests.

Indicted, word, I'm bird eye viewing it right now
Out there out the motherf*cking window)
You got the strong scoopers out there?
(Word, five book store buses out front
All them young boys are certified, they ain't rentals)
[Hook x2: Suga Bang Bang]
Run these mean streets from Cali to New York
Who could ya trust? n*ggas they do talk
Running from the feds and out of state troopers
Look up ahead, you know we got sharp shooters
[Verse 1: Raekwon]
The blocks is molded, step up ya sword piece
Moving through them housing with more ki's
Rembrandts is fresh from Scotland, crisp hats, Cristal bottles
n*ggas want the problems, we back
It's time to take over the game, it's nothing
I live on the line, from corner to castles with pawns and capsules
Scramble and find, my money's up, I'm praying for war
I do this all the time, all the time, all the time
Faces of Doom, sling in the lobby
Swinging cooked raw, if you played the field you was not leaving
Fast-pacin' for CREAM chasing team
Trying to come through the hood and lie, get left for dead naked in Queens
Let them other n*ggas wear that, we take the credit
While we was shopping for more Nikes and off-whites
Heroin stirrers, the crib, cracked mirrors
Career thugs who serve only judges and jurors
Got to make my money this year, whether it's through rhyming or criming
I'll be on the line with my iron
Promised them llamas'll fly fast, quick at pirahnas
Trying to intervene, get caught dead, no head in pajamas
You live like a slouch from vouchers
Nobody mad, you was a fake, dead, die with no trousers
Cause you crossed the line like Miller's Crossing
Off with ya dome, I walked you through the woods, we both smoked a bone

[Verse 2: Inspectah Deck]
Mean streets...
Just when I thought I was out, they pulled me back in
The streets stay flooded with crack rocks and Mac shots
The scenery's money, guerrillas in the back drop
The livest'll pop, the weakest get chopped where they stand
Singing the judge's name, dropped in the stand
Drug money kills, blood on my bills, mud on my Nikes
Only buying with the couple that I trust with my life
Twenty four sev' ducking the feds, infrared wtih lead
Gamble with off track betting instead
In my hood anybody can get it, and everybody want it
Cutthroat executives, the corners, the office
And the thought is to be boss of all bosses
The cost is ya life, swimming with sharks and orcas
So keep ya guards up, or get scarred up
It's a Cold World, I told you with Allah Just'
The bigger the funds, the bigger the guns that's blazing
It's sick in the slums and n*ggas are stunting for nathin'
[Verse 3: Ghostface Killah]
Aiyo, my gun been in more n*ggas mouths than a whore had di*k
With creamy nuts on the side of her jaw
It's Rigatone, n*gga, sliding through airports
Riding on n*ggas like MJ, same day I rocked you, comprende?
Yeah, I'm kinda off cuz my guns was dirty
That last joint that hit you, kid, you made the top thirty
Early, walk with me and strap with a vengeance
More or less Ghostface Killah'll stretch you out like mad words in a sentence
Smell the gas burning (yeah) feel the fire (word)
Real talk, it's not that bullsh*t from The Wire
It's them disco kids that clap iron
Champion hoods, if ya coke don't freeze, my face is not worth frying
We crack eightballs with pool sticks
Bungee jump off a mountain of bricks
f*ck you up if you slinging those nicks
Toney Starks from the octagon, my ox is on
Snap Matt Hughes' neck with my boxers on
