Aurweb RPC interface
The AurJson interface is a lightweight remote interface for the AUR. It utilizes http GET queries as the request format, and json as the response data exchange format.
API Usage
The RPC interface has four major query types:
- search
- msearch
- info
- multiinfo
Each method requires the following HTTP GET syntax:
Where methodname is the name of an allowed method, and data is the argument to the call.
Data is returned in json encapsulated format.
Query Types
As noted above, there are four query types:
- search
- msearch
- info
- multiinfo
A search type query takes an argument of a string with which to perform a package search. Possible return types are error and search.
The above is a query of type search and the search argument is "foobar".
A msearch type query takes an argument of a string with which to perform a search by maintainer name. Possible return types are error and msearch.
The above is a query of type msearch and the search argument is "cactus".
An info type query takes an argument of a string or an integer. If an integer, the integer must be an exact match to an existing packageID, or an error type is returned. If a string, the string must be an exact match to an existing packageName, or an error type is returned.
http://aur-url/rpc.php?type=info&arg=1123 http://aur-url/rpc.php?type=info&arg=foobar
The two examples above are both queries of type info. The first query is using an integer type argument, and the second is using a packageName argument. If packageID 1123 corresponded to packageName foobar, then both of the above queries would return the details of the foobar package.
The majority of "real world" info requests come in hefty batches. AUR can handle these in one request rather than multiple by allowing AUR clients to send multiple arguments.
Return Types
The return payload is of one format, and currently has five main types. The response will always return a type so that the user can determine if the result of an operation was an error or not.
The format of the return payload is:
ReturnType is a string, and the value is one of:
* error * search * msearch * info * multiinfo
The type of ReturnData is dependent on the query type:
- If ReturnType is error then ReturnData is a string.
- If ReturnType is search then ReturnData is an array of dictionary objects.
- If ReturnType is msearch then ReturnData is an array of dictionary objects.
- If ReturnType is info then ReturnData is a single dictionary object.
- If ReturnType is multiinfo then ReturnData is an array of dictionary objects.
The error type has an error response string as the return value. An error response can be returned from either a search or an info query type.
Example of ReturnType error:
{"type":"error","results":"No results found"}
The search type is the result returned from a search request operation. The actual results of a search operation will be the same as an info request for each result. See the info section.
Example of ReturnType search:
{"type":"search","results":[{"Name":"pam_abl","ID":"1995", ...}]}
The msearch type is the result returned from an msearch request operation. The actual results of an msearch operation will be the same as an info request for each result. See the info section.
Example of ReturnType msearch:
{"type":"msearch","results":[{"Name":"pam_abl","ID":"1995", ...}]}
The info type is the result returned from an info request operation. Returning the type as search is useful for detecting whether the response to a search operation is search data or an error.
Example of ReturnType info:
{ "type": "info", "results": { "URL": "http://pam-abl.deksai.com/" "Description": "Automated blacklisting on repeated failed authentication attempts" "Version": "0.4.3-1" "Name": "pam_abl" "FirstSubmitted": "1125707839" "License": "BSD GPL" "ID": "1995" "OutOfDate": "0" "LastModified": "1336659370" "Maintainer": "redden0t8" "CategoryID": "16" "URLPath": "/packages/pa/pam_abl/pam_abl.tar.gz" "NumVotes": "10" } }
The multiinfo type is the result returned from a multiinfo request operation. The actual results of a multiinfo operation will be the same as an info request for each result. See the info section.
Example of ReturnType multiinfo:
{"type":"multiinfo","results":[{"Name":"pam_abl","ID":"1995", ...}]}
If you are working with a javascript page, and need a json callback mechanism, you can do it. You just need to provide an additional callback variable. This callback is usually handled via the javascript library, but here is an example.
Example Query:
Example Result:
jsonp1192244621103({"type":"error","results":"No results found"})
This would automatically call the JavaScript function
jsonp1192244621103 with the parameter set to the results of the RPC call. (In this case,
{"type":"error","results":"No results found"})
More Examples
Example Query and Result:
http://aur-url/rpc.php?type=search&arg=foobar {"type":"error","results":"No results found"}
Example Query and Result:
http://aur-url/rpc.php?type=search&arg=pam_abl {"type":"search","results":[{"Name":"pam_abl","ID":"1995"}]}
Example Query and Result:
http://aur-url/rpc.php?type=info&arg=pam_abl { "type": "info", "results": { "Description": "Provides auto blacklisting of hosts and users responsible for repeated failed authentication attempts", "ID": "1995", "License": "", "Name": "pam_abl", "NumVotes": "4", "OutOfDate": "0", "URL": "http://www.hexten.net/pam_abl", "URLPath": "/packages/pam_abl/pam_abl.tar.gz", "Version": "0.2.3-1" } }

MOSCOW (AP) — Russia pulled out of an anti-crime accord with the United States on Wednesday in a move the U.S. called "self-defeating," the latest sign of rising tensions between Moscow and Washington.
Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev signed an order to scrap the 10-year-old agreement "because it was no longer relevant," his office said.
The agreement covered fighting terrorism, corruption and cross-border crimes such as drug smuggling and human trafficking.
Alexei Pushkov, head of Russia's parliamentary foreign affairs committee, said the decision reflected Russia's ability to manage its affairs without outside help.
"Russia is changing the format of its relations with the U.S.," he tweeted. "We are ending our dependence on 'the country No. 1.'"
The Foreign Ministry expressed gratitude to the U.S. for providing $12 million in aid for crime-fighting projects under the accord, but said Moscow no longer needs such assistance.
"From a recipient of Western aid for anti-crime projects, Russia has turned into a donor for such programs in Central Asian nations and Afghanistan," it said in a statement, adding that Moscow was ready to continue cooperation with the U.S. in fighting crime, including drug-trafficking.
In Washington, State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland expressed regret about the Russian move, saying that the agreement provided a framework for "very fruitful cooperation with Russia on rule of law, counter-corruption efforts, preventing trafficking in persons, counter-narcotics and strengthening our mutual legal assistance cooperation.
"From our perspective," Nuland said, the decision is "self-defeating because most of the work we were doing under this agreement was also involved in training Russians, training them on trafficking in persons interdiction, training them in implementation of the mutual legal assistance treaty that we have, training them in implementation of their own new criminal procedures code — which was something that they sought our help on."
The agreement is just one of several bilateral cooperation deals that Moscow has decided to abandon. Last year, Russia expelled the U.S. Agency for International Development and also warned it wouldn't extend the Nunn-Lugar program helping it dismantle nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons stockpiles.
On Friday, the U.S. withdrew from a joint civil society group.
President Barack Obama's efforts to "reset" relations with Russia have met a markedly colder wind from the Kremlin since Vladimir Putin returned to the presidency in May. Faced with unprecedented street protests against his 12-year rule, Putin accused the U.S. State Department of staging the protests in order to weaken Russia.
After Putin's inauguration, the Kremlin-controlled parliament then quickly rubber-stamped a series of laws imposing new restrictions in an apparent bid to curb American influence in Russia. Non-governmental organizations funded from abroad were required to register as "foreign agents," a term intended to ruin their credibility among Russians for whom the term sounds synonymous to spies. The Russian definition of treason was also expanded to include potentially any contact with a foreign organization.
Two U.S.-based NGOs have closed their Russian offices in response to the new laws. The business daily Kommersant reported Wednesday that the National Democratic Institute and the International Republican Institute, which ran programs championing democratic rights, moved their staff to Lithuania after Russian security officials threatened to prosecute them under the new treason law.
Amnesty International Russia's director, Sergei Nikitin, wrote on his blog Wednesday that the closures "show the stability of the general trend: the pressure on civil society in Russia continues."
After Congress passed a law introducing sanctions against Russian officials involved in human rights abuses, Russia responded by banning all adoptions of Russian orphans by Americans. The country's top investigative agency is also investigating a sexual abuse case against American parents already convicted in the U.S. of abusing their adopted Russian child but given suspended sentences.
Lawmakers in the Kremlin-controlled lower house have also rushed to propose such measures as banning English phrases from Russian and limiting marriages between Russian officials and foreigners.
Outgoing U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told NPR on Wednesday that the Russian adoption ban was "tragic" and the decision to expel USAID "really hurts the Russian people."
Bradley Klapper in Washington and Vladimir Isachenkov in Moscow contributed to this report.

Rule No. 1: If you want to know something about Kawhi Leonard, the one person you do not ask is Kawhi Leonard. Not because the Spurs forward is rude or dismissive, but because he treats words as though they carry overage charges.
So if you truly desire some perspective on Leonard, the former San Diego State star in the midst of his second NBA season, it might behoove you to start with a future Hall of Fame teammate who's a bit less stingy with his sentences.
"He's going to be a special one," 14-time All-Star Tim Duncan said of Leonard, the 21-year-old who stands 6-foot-7. "He's developed so quickly, and he has loads of ways to go. He could do a lot more."
Seriously? A lot more? Because Kawhi's game has already soared about three sequoias above initial expectations.
When San Antonio traded up to get Leonard with the 15th pick of the 2011 Draft, it wasn't so much a steal as it was a felonious heist. Not only has he been selected to the Rookie-Sophomore Game in each of his two seasons – he was part of the USA Select squad that practiced against America's Olympic team last summer
Tagged a defensive specialist upon entrance into the NBA, Leonard has also watched his scoring average jump to 10.8 points per game this season as he shoots 38.3 percent from 3-point distance. That last part? Yeah…that last part doesn't make any sense.
Kawhi was a lot of things for the Aztecs during his two years on the Mesa, but outside shooter wasn't one of them. Attempting 164 shots from beyond the arc in his SDSU career, Leonard connected just 25 percent of the time.
So given how the 3-point line is three feet farther back in the NBA, it would have seemed safe to assume that Kawhi's field goals would never be worth more than two at a time. Yet, somehow, the hoop became the size of an ocean once he moved away from the beach.
While he has since dipped to 14th in the league, Leonard was among the top 10 3-point-shooting small forwards before the All-Star break. He sank a game-winning triple against the Cavs on Feb. 13, which came two days after scoring a career-high 26 points vs. the Bulls.
His escalating percentages haven't been the result of anything innovative – just countless hours with shooting coach Chip Engellend before and after practice. But while Leonard's work ethic has produced plenty of accomplishments, those pale in comparison to the acclaim.
Spurs guard Manu Ginobili said that Kawhi has been "remarkable" and a "huge part of this team." San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich took it a step further by saying that Leonard "will be the face of the Spurs."
We're not talking about some fledgling franchise that's about to change its mascot to the Pelicans, either. We're talking about a four-time championship winning organization that has won 60 percent of its games for 15 straight years.
That said, it might be a touch unrealistic to assume that Leonard can mirror the star power of players like Duncan or former San Antonio great David Robinson. But sort of the way Maurice Lucas embodied the character of that 1977 Trail Blazers team, Kawhi could very well symbolize the spirit of the Spurs.
There's a reason, after all, that San Antonio traded away coveted forward George Hill to the Pacers to get Leonard – and there's a reason that the Spurs appear to have zero regrets.
Leonard, naturally, shows no emotion when asked about the hype. The player with the largest hands from his draft class hasn't lost his grip on reality.
He acknowledges that his ascension, if it happens, won't be quick but rather "a slow process of getting better every day – just trying to perfect my craft."
Friday, the Spurs will try and build on their NBA-leading 45-14 record while hosting the Kings.
Good chance Leonard will be silent before the game. Better chance he will be golden during.

Listen up, Guv'nors. Suffering from low popularity? The people of your state gathering on the lawn of the capitol, pitchforks in hand? Don't you worry about, I've got you covered. With my simple 3 point plan, you'll soon be the most popular guy/gal your state has ever known!
1. Find oil.*
2. Tax the profits of whichever company pumps the oil.
3. Use that money to cut everyone in your state a $1200 check.
The best part of it is, this plan can almost certainly be massively scaled-up to work on a national level, should you ever set your sights on, oh I don't know, the Vice Presidency, maybe?
* Important.

Smells suspiciously like socialism.
Seriously, how come those oil companies didn't raise holy hell when the one-woman Jerry Springer show that is Governor Palin taxed their profits? Why didn't Lee Raymond go straight to Karl Rove howling that Palin had to be brought back into line?

Answer: because writing those checks to every Alaskan citizen is a pittance compared to the profits they make from selling that crude oil to Japan, and to other Asian countries that don't have smog laws. (The oil is, of course, too sulfurous to refine profitably for Americans, so anyone who thinks opening up Alaska to wildcat drilling will have any real effect on American energy supplies is simply a dunce.)
The oil companies understand that writing every Alaskan a $1200 check is a crucial step in the process of getting Alaskans to tell the rest of us "shut up about ANWR, you don't live here and you're never going to visit it". It's all in the business development model, believe me.
Works pretty much the same way in New Mexico, see "Otero Mesa", except each New Mexican can be bought off for a mere $300 bribe every year.

Another nifty idea: Make sure your state gets $1.84 back from the federal government for every $1 in tax paid, ie, make sure your state consistently ranks in the top 5 states for give/give back federal money.
Works wonders.

Calling actor Shah Rukh Khan's alleged misbehaviour with security personnel at Wankhede Stadium Wednesday night "a grave matter", union minister and President of Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) Vilasrao Deshmukh Thursday said a decision whether to ban Khan's entry into the stadium would be taken by next week.
"This is a grave matter. I have called for an urgent committee meeting and we shall discuss the matter following which we will decide future course of action," Deshmukh told IANS.
Khan, the co-owner of Indian Premier League (IPl) team Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), faces a lifetime ban from entering the stadium after he reportedly misbehaved with security personnel and MCA officials there.
"The decision on the same will be taken only after the meeting of all members from the managing committee of MCA next week," MCA Joint Secretary Nitin Dalal told IANS.
He said it was an unfortunate incident and uncalled for.
Khan allegedly misbehaved and pushed the security guard at the stadium, following which he also abused MCA officials when they tried to intervene late Wednesday night.
"He pushed the security guard and misbehaved with him. He also used bad language with security officials at the stadium and when we tried to intervene, he yelled out expletives at us," MCA Treasurer Ravi Sawant told reporters Thursday.
Following the incident, MCA officials registered a complaint at the Marine Drive police station.

Anyone know there was a Mirkwood elf bagged figure available at TRU just last month? Anyone happen to have one? I missed this somehow. I almost missed the Gandalf out now actually, for me and the kids. Would love 3 of the Mirkwood elf but can't even find out if they're still available anywhere. Only coming out last month, I figured they'd still be around.
I'm aiming for Moria and Orc Forge soon I think.

Sheriff confirms investigation involving Carson City counseling center
Sheriff Ken Furlong confirmed there is an investigation involving allegations of improper activities at a Carson City counseling center.
He said Thursday that the investigation involves a man who worked for the Family Guidance and Wellness Network on Carson Street for what he termed unwanted or inappropriate behavior.
Investigators have filed no charges and haven't determined whether there was illegal activity, Furlong said, adding that beyond that, he can't comment on an ongoing investigation.
A spokesman for the Attorney General's Office said that, despite one media report, there is no investigation by that office involving the center.
He said any criminal conduct there likely would be the responsibility of local law enforcement, not the state.

Lebanon clashes rage near mosque; 16 soldiers dead
June 24, 2013
BEIRUT (AP) — Lebanese army units battled followers of a hard-line Sunni cleric holed up in a mosque complex in a southern port city on Monday, the second day of fighting that has left at least 16 soldiers dead, the military said.
The clashes in Sidon, Lebanon's third-largest city some 40 kilometers (25 miles) south of Beirut, are the latest bout of violence in Lebanon linked to the conflict in neighboring Syria. They are the bloodiest yet involving the army — at least two of those killed are officers. The Lebanese media has depicted the clashes as a test for the state in containing armed groups that have taken up the cause of the warring sides in Syria, whose sectarian makeup mirrors that of its smaller neighbor.
The two days of fighting between troops and armed supporters of Sheikh Ahmad al-Assir have transformed the city, which had been largely spared the violence plaguing border areas near Syria, into a combat zone.
The National News Agency said the clashes also left fifty wounded. Hospital officials said at least three of al-Assir's supporters died in the fighting. The military in a statement said the gunmen were using the religious compound to fire on its troops and had taken civilians as shields.
Machine-gun fire and rocket-propelled grenade explosions caused panic among residents of Sidon. Residents reported power and water outage. The city streets appeared largely deserted Monday. Local media reported many residents were asking for evacuation from the heavily populated neighborhood around the Bilal bin Rabbah Mosque where al-Assir preaches, and where the fighting has been concentrated. The local municipality said that the city is "a war zone," appealing for a cease-fire to evacuate the civilians and wounded in the area.
Many people living on upper floors came down or fled to safer areas, while others were seen running away from fighting areas carrying children. Others remained locked up in their homes or shops, fearing getting caught in the crossfire. Gray smoke billowed over parts of the city.
The military appealed to the gunmen to hand themselves in. In its statement, it said that it "reassures all Lebanese that it will continue to uproot the strife and will not stop its operations until security is totally restored to the city and its boroughs, and falls under the rule of law and order."
The clashes erupted Sunday in the predominantly Sunni city after troops arrested a follower of al-Assir. The army says supporters of the cleric opened fire without provocation on an army checkpoint. Al-Assir is a virulent critic of the powerful Shiite militant Hezbollah group, which along with its allies dominates Lebanon's government. He supports rebels fighting to oust Syria's President Bashar Assad.
A few Hezbollah supporters in the city were briefly drawn into the fight Sunday, firing on al-Assir's supporters. At least one was killed, according to his relatives in the city who spoke anonymously out of concerns for their security.
But the group appeared to be staying largely out of the ongoing clashes. Last week, al-Assir supporters fought with pro-Hezbollah gunmen, leaving two killed. Early Monday, al-Assir appealed to his supporters through his Twitter account in other parts of Lebanon to rise to his help, threatening to widen the scale of clashes.
The tweets did not give a clear statement on how the battle began. It came after a series of incidents pitting the cleric's followers against other groups in the town, including Hezbollah supporters and the army.
The cleric is believed to have hundreds of armed supporters in Sidon involved in the fighting. Dozens of al-Assir's gunmen also partially shut down the main highway linking south Lebanon with Beirut. On Monday, they opened fire in other parts of the city, with local media reporting gunshots in the city's market.
Fighting also broke out in parts of Ein el-Hilweh, a teeming Palestinian refugee camp near Sidon, where al-Assir has supporters. Islamist factions inside the camp lobbed mortars at military checkpoints around the camp. Tension also spread to the north in Tripoli, Lebanon's second largest city. Masked gunmen roamed the city center, firing in the air and forcing shops and businesses to shut down in solidarity with al-Assir. Dozens of gunmen also set fire to tires, blocking roads. The city's main streets were emptying out. There was no unusual military or security deployment.
Sectarian clashes in Lebanon tied to the Syrian conflict have intensified in recent weeks, especially after Hezbollah sent fighters to support Assad's forces. Most of the rebels fighting to topple Assad are from Syria's Sunni majority, while the President Bashar Assad belongs to the Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam.
Walid al-Moallem, Syria's foreign minister, blamed the violence in Lebanon on the international decision to arm rebels, saying that it will only serve to prolong the fighting in Syria and will impact neighboring Lebanon.
"What is going in Sidon is very dangerous, very dangerous," he told reporters in Damascus. "We warned since the start that the impact of what happens in Syria on neighboring countries will be grave." In Syria, activists reported fighting Monday between Syrian troops and rebels in the northern province of Aleppo as well as districts on the edge of the Syrian capital and its suburbs.
Clashes in Lebanon have also mostly pitted Sunni against Shiite. The most frequent outbreaks have involved rival neighborhoods in the northern port city of Tripoli, close to the Syrian border. President Michel Suleiman called for an emergency security meeting later Monday.
Headlines of Lebanon's newspapers were all dominated by the violence in Sidon, with many seeing it as a test for the state to impose order. "An attempt to assassinate Sidon and the military," read the headline of the daily al-Safir. "Al-Assir crosses the red line," read another headline in al-Jomhouria daily. A third headline in al-Nahar read: "Yesterday war in Sidon. Today, decisiveness or settlement?"

Chronic conditions defined
The use of the term 'chronic conditions' refers to a broad range of chronic and complex health conditions across the spectrum of illness, including mental illness, trauma, disability and genetic disorders.
Chronic conditions have complex and multiple causes; are generally long-term and persistent, and often lead to a gradual deterioration of health and loss of independence. While not usually immediately life threatening, chronic conditions are the most common and leading cause of premature mortality.
Many chronic conditions occur across the life cycle, although they become more prevalent with older age and can compromise quality of life and create limitations and disability.
How common are chronic conditions?
Chronic conditions range from minor conditions (e.g. short sightedness and minor hearing loss) to debilitating and restrictive complaints (e.g. musculoskeletal conditions) to potentially life-threatening illnesses (e.g. cancer and coronary heart disease).
- According to self-reporting in the 2014-15 National Health Survey, 1 in every 2 Australians (50%) have at least one prominent (i.e. arthritis, asthma, back pain, cancer, cardiovascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes or mental health conditions) chronic condition1.
- 2014-15 National Health Survey data also indicated that nearly a quarter of all Australians (23%), and 3 in every 5 Australians (60%) aged over 65 years, had two or more chronic conditions1.
- Chronic conditions were responsible for around three-quarters of the total non-fatal burden of disease in Australia in 20112.
- About a third of the burden experienced by the population could be prevented by reducing the exposure to modifiable risk factors (including both behavioural and biomedical risk factors). The risk factors causing the most burden were tobacco use, high body mass, alcohol use, physical inactivity and high blood pressure2.
- Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people experience poorer health and have worse health outcomes than other Australians, with a burden of disease 2-3 times greater than the general Australian population. In addition, they are more likely to:
- die at a younger age (death rates are around 5 times that for non-Indigenous people in the 35-44yrs age group);
- experience disability; and
- report their health as fair 3.
- Increasing prevalence of chronic conditions has also been attributed to early detection and improved treatments for diseases that previously caused premature death, as well as behavioural factors, such as smoking or poor diet, that increase the risk of developing chronic conditions.
- Population ageing and improved treatments have also contributed to people living longer with chronic conditions.
Chronic conditions accounted for around 9 in every 10 deaths in Australia in 20154. Often more than 1 disease is associated with a death and 3 diseases is the average. About 20% of deaths have 5 or more associated diseases3.
Cardiovascular diseases (coronary heart disease and stroke), dementia and Alzheimer's disease, lung cancer and chronic respiratory disease including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are the most common underlying causes, together being responsible for 2 in every 5 (37%) deaths in Australia4.
Cardiovascular diseases and cancer are the two leading causes of death for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, resulting in 25% and 20% of all deaths respectively, among this population group. Endocrine, metabolic and nutritional disorders (including diabetes) and respiratory conditions are also prominent causes of death among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, accounting for 8.9% and 7.9% of all deaths respectively1.
For further detail about mortality rates for individual chronic conditions, please visit the relevant Department of Health web page specific to each condition.
What are the risk factors for chronic conditions?
A diverse range of factors influence the health and wellbeing of the Australian population. These factors are attributes, characteristics or exposures that increase the likelihood of a person developing a disease or health disorder5. They can be categorised as follows:
- Behavioural risk factors – these are the most common risk factors for many chronic conditions. As such, they are often a major focus for prevention strategies and interventions.
– Examples include smoking, poor diet and nutrition, harmful consumption of alcohol, physical inactivity and/or cognitive inactivity.
- Biomedical risk factors – these relate to the condition, state or function of the body that contributes to the development of chronic conditions. The effects of a single biomedical risk factor can be intensified when additional biomedical risk factors or behavioural risk factors are present.
– Examples include high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, overweight or obesity, impaired glucose tolerance, stress, mental illness, trauma, or illness (communicable disease).
- Non-modifiable risk factors – these comprise individual physical and psychological components.
– Examples include age, sex, genetics or intergenerational influences.
- Physical environment determinates – these comprise both the natural and built environment, can impact health in a subtle or obvious manner and can occur over the short or long-term.
– Examples include UV exposure, air pollution, urban environment, or geographical location.
- Social and economic determinants – these can be difficult for individuals to control, however they influence the way in which people live their lives6.
– Examples include beliefs, customs and culture, education and employment status.
It is widely acknowledged that many chronic conditions not only share common risk factors and determinates, but can also be risk factors for each other. While the presence of a single risk factor can lead to illness, there is an increasing risk of developing chronic conditions when more than one risk factor is present.
National Strategic Framework for Chronic Conditions
The National Strategic Framework for Chronic Conditions (the Framework) provides overarching direction for the prevention and management of chronic conditions in Australia.
The Framework provides high level guidance to enable all levels of government and health professionals to develop and implement new and innovative polices, strategies, actions and services to reduce the impact of chronic conditions in Australia.
Further information on the Framework can be found on the National Strategic Framework for Chronic Conditions webpage.
Chronic conditions programs and initiatives
Chronic conditions are addressed at a national level through a wide range of programs and initiatives to support prevention, treatment and management. Significant funding is also provided to ensure that quality clinical research is conducted into chronic conditions, and to maintain national monitoring and surveillance measures.
Programs that support the prevention, management and care of chronic conditions include:
- Evidence-based promotion of healthy lifestyles, including regular physical activity and good nutrition, a range of tobacco control measures and strategies to reduce harmful levels of alcohol consumption, and early detection of cancer and other chronic conditions.
- The Medicare Benefits Schedule, which provides subsidies for patient care and includes Medicare items for the planning and management of chronic and terminal conditions. Eligible patients can also be referred by a GP for up to five Medicare subsidised allied health services that are directly related to the treatment of their chronic condition. In order to encourage early detection, diagnosis and intervention for treatable conditions, health assessment items are also available for people aged 45-49 years who are at risk of developing chronic disease, people aged 75 years and older and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
- The Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme, which continues to provide subsidies for a range of medicines used in the treatment of, or symptoms associated with, chronic conditions.
- Significant investments in research into chronic conditions through the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), with a focus on investigating the causes, effects, impacts and complications of chronic conditions. Improving the care of patients with multiple and complex chronic conditions has also been identified by the NHMRC as a major focus in its 2013-15 Strategic Plan.
- Funding is provided to peak bodies that focus on chronic conditions to support a number of related programs and initiatives.
Further details about programs and initiatives relating to individual chronic conditions are available on the relevant Department of Health web page specific to each condition.

Recently, we were tasked with finding a way to promote President's Day, a uniquely American holiday that is celebrated on the third Monday in February. This was no small task. Should we post a video of us singing "Home of the Brave" (acapella version) or should we dress up like past US Presidents and use words that no one uses anymore like "fourscore" and "thus" (we're looking at you, Abe Lincoln). Just when we were about to give up on the idea and "try again next year", it hit us: Since this is the land of the free, why not just give our loyal customers FREE shipping on all orders over $75?
On February 18, 2013 only, we are giving FREE Economy Shipping on every order over $75 in the continental US. This is the perfect opportunity to stock up on replacement air and water filters, water bottles for the upcoming spring months, and humidifiers to survive the rest of the winter. The shipping is on us, so you won't have to pay a dime.
Although the singing option was my personal favorite, you can't beat FREE shipping for your favorite items. Remember, it's FREE Economy Shipping on all orders over $75 in the continental US (mainland, excludes Alaska and Hawaii). Don't let this one time offer pass without taking advantage of it. This President's Day, we want you to be Consumer-in-Chief (get it?) so browse through our website and place your order while this offer lasts.

Bullpen still coming together in early going
SAN DIEGO -- Rockies closer LaTroy Hawkins notes that the early days of a season can be difficult for relievers. They've had a chance to work in Spring Training, but the innings aren't enough, or intense enough, to truly prepare.
"Guys are swinging at the first pitch or guys are out there working on things, and you're only throwing one inning at a time," Hawkins said. "We're still getting ourselves together."
Not that Rockies relievers haven't been getting the chance to work. From the start of the current road trip through Tuesday, the bullpen worked 18 2/3 innings with 16 strikeouts, against 10 hits and 10 walks, with the walks being largely due to lefty setup man Rex Brothers' slump. From April 9 through Tuesday, the 0.79 ERA for the Rockies' 'pen was the second-lowest in the Majors to the 0.73 mark for the Giants.
"There's a fine line," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. "I talk about protecting our pitching all the time, protecting our starting pitching, but there's a balance there where you're really protecting the starters and the bullpen takes on the workload. I'm aware of that."
The balance of a good bullpen can be upset easily. Last year, the Rockies were near the top of the National League West in June, until then-closer Rafael Betancourt began dealing with a series of injuries that would end his season early. He ended up undergoing Tommy John surgery on his right elbow.
Picking up veterans Hawkins and lefty Boone Logan, who has five strikeouts against five hits and a walk in three innings over five appearances, has helped stabilize the bullpen. Brothers, who has battled walks and doesn't appear to be pitching with the necessary abandon and confidence, Chad Bettis and Tommy Kahnle are getting important innings as young relievers. Veteran Matt Belisle has at times shown wear from heavy usage the past four seasons, but his last two appearances have been solid.
What isn't clear is whether this bullpen can withstand the upheaval that comes with injury, like the one to Betancourt last year. But there are possible experienced reinforcements in veteran Nick Masset, who is coming off two years of injury and is at Triple-A Colorado Springs, and even Betancourt, who plans to re-sign with the Rockies and could be available if he heals properly.
But Weiss would rather turn to other relievers in non-emergency situations.
"Last year we lost 'Raffy' for big, big chunks of time," Weiss said. "When that happens, there's not a whole lot you can do. You deal with it, but it's going to affect you. It trickles down. We ran into that last year. Hopefully, we don't lose guys for big chunks of time out there, because if that's the case, it affects your bullpen and where guys are slotted out there. I pay a lot of attention to how they're feeling every day. I try to stay on top of it, stay out in front of it."
The Rockies have to hope the heavy early workload sharpens the bullpen rather than deplete it.
"It works both ways -- you get a lot of work done, which is good," Hawkins said. "But you don't want to wear down too early and get to a point where the bullpen is tired."

Update: BibleWorks Executable (7.015g)
Date: 06/30/06 at 12:10:07
This patch contains the latest BibleWorks 7.0 program executable. It fixes several font problems: (1) Fixes a problem with Unicode export of NET Bible notes. Some characters that do not occur in typical Unicode fonts, like Fraktur P, though in bwgrkl, will be exported as non-Unicode using the same character in bwsupp. (2) a major rework of the way Hebrew accents are displayed is under way. There should be fewer overlaps now. NOTE: you will need to apply the latest font update. Then manually reinstall bwgrkl, bwhebb and bwsupp from the BibleWorks root directory.
This is a NOT a preview version. No access code is needed to download this patch.
If you have problems with this update please post a reply to this message on the BibleWorks Forum in the Program and Database Updates section. If you post a response elsewhere we may not see it. Please do not use this section to post messages about anything but this update.

Don't waste your money on buying a ticket.
I'm winning.
Actually, the woman who I'm relegated to by marriage is winning. All of "our" money goes in "her" account.
But don't feel badly for me. I have total access to "our" money.
Just as long as I don't spend any of it. In her defense, she doesn't spend any of it either.
This explains the bumper sticker on her car "She Who Dies With the Most Wins!".
We decided to buy a Powerball ticket last night. By we, I mean she said "Stop here, so "we" can buy a Powerball ticket." I think it's cute she includes me.
After we purchased the winning ticket (we didn't win), the woman I'm related to by marriage and chauffeur around so she can gamble "our" money away ($20 for losing tickets) asked what "we" would do with the money when we won (again… for clarification… we are giant losers… so far).
She wants 2 vacation houses. One on a beach. One in the woods.
I think a lake house would be the answer, but it's not "my" money now is it (again, we lost).
The Evil Spawn wants iEverything. And $1,000,000 in Fun Money.
Seems excessive, but then again I've never had $425 million (and never will… even if "we" win) so who am I to judge.
If she is going to be spoiled, might as well go big.
Me, I want nothing. But a nap.
My concern is if (when) "we" win, how much am I going to have to spend on security?
I have zero interest in getting kidnapped by members of the Mexican Drug Cartel. I'm not sure why I'm afraid of them, but it just seems like the logical thing to be frightened by.
Actually, "we" decided after the vacation homes and iJunk to take the rest of the money and spend the rest of our lives (length will depend on Cartel) giving it away.
Our foundation will be called "Buddy's Gift" after Buddy the Dog – the Patriarch of Our Family.
So don't bother buying a Powerball ticket this week because "we" are winning.
And "we" have big plans to give away the money.
Actually, go ahead and buy a ticket.
It will just make "our" winning amount that much larger.

When high priests of America's political right and left as articulate as William F. Buckley Jr., founding editor of National Review, and Anthony Lewis, a columnist for The New York Times Op-Ed page, peddle the same drug legalization line, it's time to shout caveat emptor--let the buyer beware. For the boomlet to legalize drugs like heroin, cocaine and marijuana that they--and magazines like National Review and New York--are trying to seed among the right and left ends of the political spectrum, is founded in fiction, not fact. And it's our children who could suffer long-lasting, permanent damage.
Fiction: There's been no progress in the war on drugs.
FACT: The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' National Household Drug Survey, the nation's most extensive assessment of drug use, reports that from 1979 to 1994 the number of current drug users (those using within the past month) has dropped from 24.8 million to 13 million, marijuana users from 23 million to 10 million and cocaine users from 4.4 million to 1.4 million. The number of hard-core addicts has held steady at around 6 million, a situation most experts attribute to the unavailability of treatment and the large number of addicts in the pipeline.
Fiction: Whether to use drugs and become hooked is an adult decision.
FACT: It's children who choose. Hardly anyone in America begins drug use after age 21. An individual who does not smoke, use drugs or abuse alcohol by age 21 is virtually certain never to do so. The nicotine pushers understand this, which is why they fight so strenuously to kill efforts to keep their stuff away from kids.
Fiction: Legalization would be only for adults; legalized drugs would not be available to children.
FACT: Nothing in the American experience gives grounds to believe in our ability to keep legal drugs out of the hands of children. It's illegal for children to purchase cigarettes and alcohol. But today, 3 million adolescents smoke an average of half a pack a day: a $1 billion a year market. Twelve million underage Americans drink: a $10 billion a year market.
Fiction: Legalization would reduce crime and social problems.
FACT: Any short-term reduction in arrests from repealing drug laws would quickly evaporate as use increased; and the criminal conduct-assaults, murders, rapes, child molestations, vandalism and other violence-spawned by drugs like cocaine and methamphetamines would explode. The U.S. Department of Justice reports that criminals commit six times as many homicides, four times as many assaults and almost one and a half times as many robberies under the influence of drugs as they commit in order to get money to buy drugs.
Here the history of our experience with alcohol can teach us. More state prisoners were drunk on alcohol than high on drugs when they committed their crimes, and America's number one criminal offense is driving while intoxicated (1.5 million arrests in 1993). Health and welfare costs would skyrocket if drugs were legalized.
Fiction: The American experience with the prohibition of alcohol supports drug legalization.
FACT: This ignores two important distinctions: Prohibition was in fact decriminalization (possession of alcohol for personal consumption was not illegal); and alcohol, unlike illegal drugs such as heroin and cocaine, has a long history of broad social acceptance dating back to the Old Testament and Ancient Greece. Nevertheless, alcohol consumption dropped from 1.96 gallons per person in 1919 to 0.97 gallons per person in 1934, the first full year after Prohibition ended. Death rates from cirrhosis among men came down from 29.5 per 100,000 in 1911 to 10.7 per 100,000 in 1929. During Prohibition, admission to mental health institutions for alcohol psychosis dropped 60 percent; arrests for drunk and disorderly conduct went down 50 percent; welfare agencies reported significant declines in cases due to alcohol-related family problems, and the death rate from impure alcohol did not rise.
Nor did Prohibition generate a crime wave. Homicide increased at a higher rate between 1900 and 1910 than during Prohibition, and organized crime was well established in the cities before 1920. I put these facts on the record not to support a return to Prohibition, which I strongly oppose, but to set the historical record straight and temper the revisionist view of legalizers who take their history from celluloid images of 1930's gangster movies.
Fiction: Greater availability and legal acceptability of drugs like marijuana, cocaine and heroin would not increase use.
FACT: This contradicts not only experience but human nature. In the 1970's we decriminalized marijuana. The Schafer Commission appointed by President Richard M. Nixon recommended decriminalization, as did President Jimmy Carter. The result? A soaring increase in marijuana use, particularly among youngsters.
Today we have 50 million nicotine addicts, 18 million alcoholics and alcohol abusers and 6 million illegal drug addicts. Experts like Dr. Herbert Kleber at Columbia University believe that with legalization the number of cocaine addicts alone would jump beyond the number of alcoholics.
That spells big trouble. In 1995 illegal drugs killed 20,000 Americans. Tobacco was responsible for 450,000 deaths; alcohol for more than 100,000. Studies at the Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University reveal that, of the $66 billion that substance abuse costs Federal health and disability entitlement programs like Medicare and Medicaid, $56 billion is attributable to tobacco and alcohol.
Fiction: Drug use is an issue of civil liberties.
FACT: This is a convenient misreading of John Stuart Mill's On Liberty. Legalizers cite Mill to argue that the state has no right to interfere in the private life of a citizen who uses drugs; only when an action harms someone else may the state take action to prevent it. They ignore the fact that Mill's conception of freedom does not extend to the right of individuals to enslave themselves or to decide that they will give up their liberty. Mill wrote with blunt clarity: "The principle of freedom cannot require that he should be free not to be free. It is not freedom to be allowed to alienate his freedom."
Drug addiction is a form of enslavement. It "alters pathologically the nature and character of abusers," says Mitchell Rosenthal, M.D., the president of Phoenix House. Even Mill at his most expansive would admit that the state can take action not only to free an addict from chains of chemical dependency that take away the freedom to be all that God meant him or her to be, but also to prevent those bonds from becoming shackles in the first place. Indeed, a state devoted to individual freedom has an obligation to nourish a society and legal structure that protects individuals from the slavery of drug addiction.
Even Mill's most libertarian contention--that the state can regulate only those actions that directly affect others--does not support individual drug abuse and addiction, because such conduct does directly affect others: from the abused spouse and baby involuntarily addicted through the mother's umbilical cord, to co-workers and innocent bystanders injured or killed by adolescents high on crack cocaine. In a society as interdependent as ours, the drug abuser's conduct has a direct and substantial impact on every taxpayer who foots the bill for the criminal and health cost consequences of the drug abuser's actions.
Certainly a society that recognizes the state's compelling interest in banning (and stopping individuals from using) lead paint, asbestos insulation, unsafe toys and flammable fabrics can hardly ignore its interest in banning cocaine, heroin, marijuana, methamphetamines and hallucinogens. Indeed, refusing to include drug use in the right of privacy, the Supreme Court has blessed state laws that prohibit even the sacramental use of peyote. With the exception of Alaska, state courts, like those of New York, have held that possession of marijuana in the home is not protected by the right of privacy.
Fiction: Legalization works well in European countries.
FACT: The ventures of Switzerland, England and the Netherlands into drug legalization have had disastrous consequences. Switzerland's "Needle Park," touted as a way to restrict a few hundred heroin addicts to a small area, turned into a grotesque tourist attraction of 20,000 heroin addicts and junkies, which had to be closed down before it infected the city of Zurich. England's foray into allowing any doctor to prescribe heroin was quickly curbed as heroin use increased.
The Netherlands legalized marijuana for anyone over age 15. Adolescent pot use there rose nearly 200 percent while it was dropping 66 percent in the United States. As crime and the availability of drugs like heroin and cocaine rose, and complaints from city residents about the decline in their quality of life multiplied, the Amsterdam city council moved to raise the age for legal purchase of marijuana from 16 to 18 and trim back the number of pot distribution shops in Amsterdam. Dutch persistence in selling pot has angered European neighbors because the Netherlands' wide-open attitude toward marijuana is believed to be spreading pot and other drugs beyond its borders. And Sweden, after a brief turn at permitting doctors to give drugs to addicts, in 1980 adopted the American policy of seeking a drug-free society. By 1988, Sweden had seen drug use among young Army conscripts drop 75 percent and current use by ninth graders fall 66 percent.
What is most disturbing about the arguments for legalization is that they glide over the impact such a policy would have on our children. The United States in 1996 is assuredly not the Garden of Eden of the Old Testament. Dealing with evil, including drugs, is part of the human experience. But there is a special obligation to protect our children from evil, and drugs are first and foremost an issue about our children. It is adolescent experimentation that leads to abuse and addiction.
Today, most kids don't use illicit drugs. But all children, particularly the poorest, are vulnerable to abuse and addiction. Russian roulette is not a game anyone should play. Legalizing drugs is not only playing Russian roulette with our children. It's slipping a couple of extra bullets in the chamber.

By Marlena De Lacroix a.k.a. Connie Passalacqua Hayman
General Hospital: Last Tuesday came word that Steve Burton is leaving General Hospitalafter 21 years playing Jason (Quartermaine) Morgan. You'd think I'd be happy because I have always disliked Jason, the hitman who was the central "hero" of the show. But as Burton leaves I have changing feelings.
In the past I've called Burton a "limited" actor because, for one thing, he lacked training. But Burton did arguably stand fast all those years, playing a character absurdly written to be some sort of daytime icon: a murderer who usually saved everyone in town, and was viewed by former headwriter Bob Guza as a living saint. With his trademark black tee-shirt, bulging muscles and gun frequently in hand, Jason as written by Guza was the ultimate hero as he murdered at least nine people over the years.
Guza gave him what was supposed to be an understandable motive for being an unapologetic killer: his "conscience" screw was loose or missing altogether from his brain, ostensibly having been knocked out years ago when the former good guy/med student was in an automobile crash. And being the mob enforcer for GH's other anti-hero, the murderer Sonny, his boss and closest friend in one of the most remarkable bromances in daytime history, always gave [Read more…]

Organizations that are not required to file IRS Form 990 with the IRS or that file some other form—such as the IRS Forms 990-EZ, 990-N, or 990-PF—must submit a pro forma IRS Form 990. This includes subordinates to group exemptions and bonafide chapters or affiliates, which are required to submit pro forma IRS Forms 990 specific to the entity and service location named in the CFC application.
The pro forma IRS Form 990 is not a separate form. Rather it is a partially completed IRS Form 990 that is used for CFC purposes only. The following items must be completed on the pro forma IRS Form 990:
Please note that the CFC cannot accept other forms, such as IRS Forms 990-EZ, 990-N, 990-PF, or other comparable forms.
Organizations must demonstrate that they provide services in the service area to which they are applying:
The fee structure is based on tiers for different types of organizations. Tiers refer to the size of the applicant organization in terms of total revenue as reported on the submitted IRS Form 990 or the pro forma IRS Form 990. Total revenue may be found on page 9, line 12, column A of the required IRS forms.
The CFC rules, as noted in 5 CFR §950.107, allow for upfront application fees and listing fees as well as distribution fees to be assessed against pledges received. Listing fees are paid only by organizations approved to participate in the campaign.
Tier I Organizations are those that report $1 million or more in revenue.
Tier II Organizations are those that report $250 thousand or more in revenue, but less than $1 million.
Tier III Organizations are those that report less than $250 thousand in revenue.
The cost of the campaign will be recovered primarily through application fees paid by the charitable organizations that apply for participation in the CFC. Additionally, upfront application fees will require that charities properly adjust for campaign costs in their own accounting, something that the current process of cost deduction does not reflect.
Prior to 2017, the overhead administrative costs of much of the CFC program were paid out of donor contributions through the campaign. OPM maintains that more transparency with respect to administrative overhead would be beneficial to the program, to the donors, and to the charitable organizations that receive donations through the CFC.
In addition to defraying costs, an application fee will discourage those organization that receive no benefit from the campaign from applying, thereby reducing administrative costs, and increasing the number of dollars that reaches participating charities. It is in the spirit of these recommendations that OPM proposed to restructure CFC cost recovery.

Outfit Details:
vintage chiffon dress - The Loved One
bow belt - thrifted
fuchsia heels - c/o Payless
Fuchsia MAC Clutch - c/o Rebecca Minkoff (they're having a huge sale right now on their site)
rings - Beacon's Closet and Hourglass Consignment
It was fortuitous and quite convenient that we ended up in front of IKEA's brightly colored bordering walls on a day I chose to wear such a vibrant getup; it was unfortunate that I wore a chiffon dress on such a blustery day. I had more than one Marilyn moment, but I can tell you that mine weren't nearly as glamorous.
I guess I wasn't thinking of function as much as I was trying to find mood-lifting colors. I had to compensate for the gloomy weather with happy hues. It's just what I do.
