Officials at the Bath VA Medical Center plan to eliminate the facility's emergency room and intensive care unit effective Jan. 14, 2014, but they say the changes will ultimately be positive.
Officials at the Bath VA Medical Center plan to eliminate the facility's emergency room and intensive care unit effective Jan. 14, 2014, but they say the changes will ultimately be positive.
Medical Center Director Michael Swartz said the changes are the result of declining use of emergency services at the facility.
"We've studied the last three years of usage of our emergency room, and on average, the usage was dropping about five to seven percent each year," Swartz said.
He said the visits the ER was getting were also increasingly for non-emergency services.
Those needs can largely be filled by an urgent care center that will take the place of the facility's emergency room.
The urgent care center will be open from 8 a.m.-8 p.m. seven days a week year-round.
Chief of Staff Dr. Felipe Diaz said the facility is no longer a destination for critically ill emergency patients who need ambulance service.
"Critically ill patients have not been brought to our ER for more than a year," Diaz said.
VA patients with life-threatening illnesses or injuries will be required to call 911 or visit a neighboring community hospital, like Bath's Ira Davenport Memorial.
Care for genuine life-threatening needs will be reimbursed to the providing hospital by the VA.
Decisions about reimbursement will be evaluated by VA officials.
"They would evaluate the ER visit, if it's truly an emergency, or what a layperson would think is an emergent need, then that is covered," Diaz said.
Veterans who use a hospital emergency room for a life-threatening situation should call (800) 396-7929 within 72 hours after the visit to discuss reimbursement for the hospital.
If the hospital determines a patient needs to be admitted, they can contact the VA Medical Center to determine if the patient can be admitted to the Bath VA's inpatient care facility.
"This is a transition from emergency room to urgent care, our inpatient ward is still open and will continue to function as before," Diaz said.
The Bath VA has mailed out 17,000 letters to veterans outlining the changes. Included is a Frequently Asked Questions list outlining much of the information above.
They've also been in contact with veteran service organizations to get the word out about the changes.
Swartz said veterans with questions about how to get their medical needs met should contact their primary care doctor to discuss their particular situation.
He said it was important for veterans to know that the changes are about better meeting patients' needs – not about saving money.
"This is not a budget issue," Swartz said. "We're going to take the savings from the emergency room and place that into primary care and expand other services. We really think this is a positive development for veterans in the Southern Tier."

This article answers several common questions about Microsoft Office 2013 and Office 365.
Click on the section heading to expand and reveal the information you need.
Office 2013 comes in a variety of versions for home and business users, which you can get from the Microsoft Office website.
Office 365's subscription-based cloud service comes in tiers.
Buying the standalone versions of Office 2013 will get you maintenance updates only, but staying subscribed to Office 365 will give you the big updates coming out in the future as well. There is also the Microsoft RT version of Office for ARM-based tablets, included for free on RT devices such as the Surface RT tablet. Office Home and Student 2013 RT includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote.
Office 2013 suites are designed for use on a single PC and cannot be transferred to a different PC.
Office 2013 is the name of the traditional software package that includes individual desktop programs. It's a Standalone installation and is marketed towards home and small business users as can only be installed on the 1 PC for a one off charge.
Office 365 delivers the Office 2013 programs as part of a monthly or yearly subscription service that includes online storage, sharing, and syncing via Microsoft cloud services. It covers 5 PCs and is marketed towards Small to Enterprise business customers. It's now also marketed to University customers.
Office 365 is available in business, consumer, education, and government editions. When purchased as part of an Office 365 subscription, the Office 2013 programs and associated services are always available in the latest version.
Improvements over Office 2010:
Which version of Microsoft Office you choose depends on how much you use each of the tools in the suite. The standalone versions might be the right choice for people who only use a couple of the programs and are not worried about future upgrades. The entry option is to get Microsoft Office Home and Student 2013, the low-end standalone option that comes with Word, PowerPoint, Excel and OneNote. If you want to add Outlook to that, you can get Office Home and Business at a premium.
If you want all the tools, you can buy Office Professional, which comprises Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher, and Access.
Another option is to sign up for an Office 365 subscription which gives you the same downloadable Office apps that live on your hard drive, all future upgrades to the software while you keep the subscription, Office on Demand, 20GB of space on OneDrive in addition to the free 7GB you get now and the right to install the suite on five computers.
With this setup, you can choose Office 365 Home Premium for an annual cost. this option bundles Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OneNote, Outlook, Publisher, and Access.
To add a couple of business tools, you can sign up for Office 365 Small Business Premium which is more expensive per year but covers five computers, which gives you all the software of the home version plus Lync and InfoPath. With the small-business version, you also get added extras like mail protection against viruses, shared calendars, high-definition videoconferencing, and the ability to create company Web sites and share documents online. There will also be packages with more business features for larger companies, but you will want to check the Microsoft website for the full options and pricing.
Essentially Office has been streamlined in its visual style in its quest to be more touch and stylus friendly for Windows 8 and tablets. Newer social features and Skype integration add new collaborative wrinkles, but replicate what's already available on PCs via other services and software. OneNote and Lync add collaborative note-taking and video-connected communications to the Office suite.
The addition of stylus support in tablet mode (inking) opens up opportunities for casual pen-based mark-ups of documents, or freehand note-taking.
Office 2013 is specifically optimized for tablet use, and even Smartphone use. The layout has been simplified and more touch-friendly button-icons have been added. While the Ribbon still remains in Word, you can opt to remove interface clutter for a cleaner view.
Other additions focus on media use and consumption. Read mode optimizes a document for tablet reading with book like page-flipping and videos can be viewed within documents. Images can be captured from a tablet's onboard camera and resized right into the doc, finger gestures can enable layout changes. A clever radial thumb-controlled button scheme in OneNote provides a quick way to adjust fonts, colours, and sizes. Windows phones will support Office via OneDrive, seamlessly updating saved changes.
How many devices will it support?
With a purchase of any of the Office 2013 standalone versions you will only be able to install it on one PC. The Office 365 subscription versions can be installed on up to five computers. You can deactivate versions and install them on other devices after that. You'll need to sign up for a free Microsoft account to use cloud-based document sharing via OneDrive.
No. You will still be able to purchase any Office 2013 edition with a perpetual license that doesn't require any ongoing subscription fees. This version can be combined with a free Microsoft Account (aka Windows Live account) to allow online document storage and sharing.
You will need Windows 7or Windows 8 to successfully run Office 2013 on your PC or RT Tablet.
OneNote is not part of the factory installed version of Office 2013 however, it is installed on your system. Go to Desktop and you will see it listed under the Desktop applications.
Office 2013 suites are designed for use on a single PC and cannot be transferred to a different PC. Office 365 is a subscription service that includes all Office applications. It can be installed on up to 5 PCs and includes additional cloud services such as additional OneDrive online storage and Skype minutes for home use.
Your Microsoft account is the combination of an email address and a password that you use to sign in to services like Hotmail, Messenger, OneDrive, Windows Phone, Xbox LIVE, or Outlook.com. If you use an email address and password to sign in to these or other services, you already have a Microsoft account, but you can also sign up for a new account if you prefer. This account was previously known as your Microsoft Passport.
What is a Microsoft account?
With this version of Office, you have sign in with your Microsoft account to start a click to run installation. Please note that OneDrive can be linked linked to your Microsoft account.
Simply click on this link and fill out the web page form and Microsoft will do the rest.
Office on Demand is an online service which allows you to access office programs for editing files, from a system that doesn't have Office installed. It's an Office 365 subscription service.
Office on Demand is not going to be of use if you only have Office 2013.
Office Web Apps are best suited for quick viewing and editing, while Office on Demand provides access to your full-featured Office applications.
Office Web Apps are available across a variety of operating systems, devices, and browsers, providing access to Office tools and your documents when working from non-Windows 7 PCs and earlier, from other platforms Linux, or from non-Windows Tablets.
OneDrive is an online storage service that lets you upload files to the cloud and then access them from a computer or phone. You can use OneDrive to store documents, notes, photos, music, videos or other types of file. OneDrive simplifies sharing. You can send photos and files through email, send a short link to them in a text message, or post them to a social network, your website, or your blog. Straight from OneDrive . There is also a desktop app for OneDrive you can install that creates a folder on your PC that automatically syncs with your cloud folder, so you can access your files offline.
OneDrive users receive 7 GB of storage with OneDrive for free. You can purchase additional storage if needed. As an Office 2013 user, you will need to sign up for a personal account. Customers with an active Office 365 Home Premium or Office 365 University subscription receive an additional 20 GB of OneDrive storage per subscription. Additional storage is not available during trial periods.
You should sign in to whichever account you've used to create your Personal OneDrive account. There is no additional space allocated with Office 2013.
Microsoft already offers a free series of Google Docs-like Web apps via OneDrive. Cloud connectivity is offered through your Web browser with no software purchase and no monthly fees. The Web apps are not as rich as the full versions, but will definitely be useful for more-casual Office users or for quick edits to documents in a pinch. The apps available are Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. You will need to sign up for a Microsoft account to use the Web apps.
Discs are not included. The suite will be preinstalled on the PC as an active image or available for download.
Skype is an online service that lets you can call friends, family, or colleagues over the internet - through your computer, mobile phone, and other mobile devices. You can Call, video call and Instant message other people with a Skype account for free, or you can use Skype world minutes to call friends or family with or without a Skype account on their mobile phone or landline.
Skype is supported in Microsoft Lync for multiparty video chat, and within Office for collaboration on documents. The biggest impact could be in office meetings, a demonstration on an 80-inch Perceptive Pixel screen could create a giant interactive whiteboard and collaborative meet up.
No, the OEM software is licensed with the computer system on which it was originally installed and is tied to that original machine.
No, only full versions of Office software are available.
OEM is the most affordable way to purchase Office and makes it very easy to install and use. This is the most common way for smaller businesses (less than 25 employees) to buy Office software. Volume licensing is preferred for larger businesses (more than 50 employees) due to the addition of business class functionality i.e. Imaging and server side enhancements, as well as ease of administration and the ability to move the license to replacement PC's.
What type of Windows 8 devices did you purchase? RT devices will only run Office 2013 Student. While Office 2010 and Office 2007 will "work" with Windows 8, only Office 2013 will allow you to take advantage of the full touch experience that Windows 8 offers.
Yes, by using compatibility and service packs found at www.office.com
For all editions, applications are installed on the customer's PC.
Software Assurance is only available for Volume License copies of Office.
All Office licenses purchased through your Volume License agreement.
Purchase 1 copy of Office through your Volume License agreement per endpoint device that will be accessing Office.
Internet access is required to install and/or activate all the latest releases of Office suites. Internet connectivity is also required to access cloud services if you have them set up. You will also need to connect to the Internet regularly to keep your version of Office up-to-date and benefit from any bug-fixes. You will be able to use the Office suite offline once it's activated, but it works better with a connection.
Most versions of the new Office for Windows PCs use Click-to-Run. This is a streaming technology that lets you begin to use Office applications before the installation has completed. The actual download speed of Office depends on the speed of your Internet connection.
The 32-bit version of Office will be installed by default. Even if your computer is running a 64-bit version of Windows, its recommend that you install the 32-bit version of Office. This is because it is more compatible with the applications and add-ins that work with Office. If you do want to install the 64-bit version of Office anyway, then make sure you install from the 64 bit installer.
There are several ways to get a back up for your Office product.
For more information on obtaining back-up copies visit, www.office.com/downloadoffice
Back-up copies cannot be shipped to the following countries/regions: Bhutan, Brazil, China, Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Cook Islands, French Southern and Antarctic Lands, Heard Island and McDonald Islands, Iraq, Jan Mayen, Kiribati, Libya, Micronesia, Myanmar, Nauru, Nepal, Niue, Palau, Pitcairn Islands, Saba, Samoa, Sint Eustatius, Timor Leste, Tokelau, Wallis and Futuna.
No. But there is some loose and casual help information that pops up from time to time.
Yes, while there are certain Office 365 functions that will work on older OS's Office 2013 is optimised for Windows 7 and 8.
This is an installation error that may occur when attempting to use Office 2013. To solve this problem, use this Microsoft Fix It article.
Cloud computing is the use of computing resources - hardware and software, that are delivered as a service over a network - typically the Internet.

Jarl Mohn, the chairman of KPCC-FM (89.3) Southern California Public Radio, will be NPR's next president and chief executive, the public radio institution said Friday. He succeeds interim President and CEO Paul G. Haaga Jr. starting in July.
Mohn is a media industry veteran. He was the founding president and CEO of the media investment company Liberty Digital, and previously ran E! Entertainment Television for almost nine years after holding a senior position at MTV and VH1.
Mohn's background "makes him ideally suited to lead NPR as it continues to expand its reach and play a unique role in public service journalism and cultural programming," said NPR board Chairman Kit Jensen in a statement.
Mohn takes the top job at NPR after a series of short stints by other executives. Gary Knell resigned as CEO after less than two years to become president of the National Geographic Society. He was replaced by Haaga. In 2011, Knell's predecessor Vivian Schiller, left NPR after a senior executive was caught on video making disparaging remarks about the tea party movement.
"This is not a job for me. It's a mission," Mohn said in a statement. "I want to make sure the staff of NPR, the member stations and the others who make it happen have everything they need to do their best work."

Heat go for 60th win versus Sixers
The Miami Heat are approaching a franchise record in wins and look to move closer to that mark Saturday at home versus the Philadelphia 76ers from AmericanAirlines Arena.
Miami recorded its 59th win of the season in Friday's 89-79 triumph at Charlotte, matching the victory total of the 2004-05 squad.
Mike Miller scored a season-high 26 points and sank 7-of-11 3-pointers, while Chris Bosh compiled 18 points, eight rebounds and six assists for Miami, which was without LeBron James and Dwyane Wade for the third straight game. James (hamstring) and Wade (knee) could return Saturday.
Heat veteran Ray Allen (ankle) also missed Friday's game and is questionable versus the Sixers. Miami, which won 61 games back in 1996-97, is 3-1 since having a 27-game winning streak stopped at Chicago on March 27.
The Heat will play two straight and four of five games at home, where they own a sizzling 32-4 mark. They had a 17-game home winning streak cut short on Tuesday to the New York Knicks.
Miami, which sits fifth in the NBA with 102.9 ppg, is the top seed in the East and the Southeast Division champion for a third straight season.
Philadelphia continued its final road trip of the season -- a four-game trek -- with Friday's 101-90 victory over the playoff-bound Atlanta Hawks.
Evan Turner finished with 24 points and 11 rebounds, while Spencer Hawks contributed 19 points and 12 rebounds for the 76ers, who have won four of five games and sit five games behind Milwaukee for the eighth and final postseason spot in the East with seven to play.
The Bucks lost on the road to the New York Knicks Friday night.
Thaddeus Young delivered 14 points and 13 boards in the win and Damien Wilkins scored 16 points.
"We found a way to close this one out. It wasn't pretty there at the end, but that is a really good road win for us against a playoff team, Sixers coach Doug Collins said. "The Hawks are a tough team to play because they can go with a couple different lineups."
Sixers All-Star Jrue Holiday, who went just 2-for-24 from the field in a loss at Charlotte on Wednesday, converted on only 3-of-14 attempts for nine points against the Hawks.
The Sixers are 9-27 on the road and still have Brooklyn on the trek.
Philadelphia has lost the first three meetings of the season to the Heat and has been swept in this series in each of the previous three years.
Miami has won 14 in a row and 15 of the past 16 meetings with Philadelphia, losers in nine straight and 15 of 17 trips to south Florida.

This PUG will self destruct in five seconds. The first whiff of a short, lit fuse? A group leader spamming the beastly phrase "link achiev or no inv". I believe it's a doom knell for any PUG. It makes Dalaran and trade chat more dangerous places for a group than a fire breathing dragon with left-side whelps.
Perhaps you've not heard the phrase. It's often used as a recruitment method by PUG leaders. They are demanding that potential group members whisper them with a link to their completed achievement for the relevant instance. It does seem to have benefits for both group leader and applicant – call them Lichknig and Armand:
- Lichknig can suppose that Armand knows tactics for the encounters
- Lichknig can suppose that Armand is well-geared enough to do the instance, having done it before
- Lichknig can suppose that Armand doesn't have the attention span of a concussed goldfish, as shown by his completed achievement and the fact that he bothered to link it
- Armand can suppose that the PUG has a good chance of completing the instance as everyone is being vetted
- Armand can suppose that the PUG has a good chance of filling up and starting quickly as Lichknig is regularly singing out on trade and recruitment channels
Lichknig's request of players to link an achievement and then Armand's linking of the achievement is like a negotiation. It gets both players what they want. It also creates a sort of trust between Lichknig and Armand, and an identical bond is created between Lichknig and each player that joins the raid group. The group's parameters of teamwork, or safety nets, are set.
The terms are not necessarily fair, though. The unspoken subtext is that Lichknig is washing his hands of error – he's looking for an easy raid with little input from him. He's saying "you've done it before – you will just do it again" to his group members. He and others like him don't want to put the effort in to lead or direct the group. Lichknig wants to be able to crack open a beer and sit back; the group should run like a machine for him. He can put in as little interaction as he likes – both with the instance, which he will be carried through by his mechanical group – and the players, whose questions he doesn't necessarily need to answer.
This puts group under unfair pressure to perform. This is particularly hard without direction. Almost everyone recruited into a linky linky group will have slightly different tactics from their previous PUGs or guild runs for each encounter. Think about it. Without solid direction from the leader, the group will employ three to seven different essence tactics in the Twin'Valkyr encounter, merrily exploding itself and saving the bosses the hassle.
Armand and his fellow group members have little room or excuse for error during the run. The trust bonding the group is tenuous as it can be broken as soon as someone makes a mistake; players are almost absolved of having to be patient with their teammates by the terms of negotiation. Not so long ago I was in an Ulduar25 PUG – as soon as we wiped someone reacted with "WTF? I thought you invited people who knew tacts". What linky linky group members are under strain to prove is their worth; why they should be included. This may result in such a chilled show of professionalism that the atmosphere is icy cold and no-one says a friendly word. It may also result in players pouncing on the chance to blame someone else as soon as anything goes wrong. I mean anything – whether a tail swipe in Onyxia leads to a brief but controllable flurry of whelps or a messy wipe, players may be ready to draw attention to it as long as it diverts attention from themselves.
This isn't a problem if the run is successful – the group may even bond if the run is fun and there's some good humour going round. Say that doesn't happen or someone like Armand makes a mistake, though. The initial parameters of the group will be revealed to be superficially flimsy – not a real safety net. Lichknig and the rest of the group are not guaranteed to show any patience and so Armand may find himself insulted, chased down or simply kicked.
Armand being kicked may be a bad thing for the raid. He may be a great tank and was just using slightly different tactics or his own initiative to rescue a bad tactical situation – but who knows what's right if Lichknig hasn't spoken since trade chat? Now that Armand's gone the group will spend a fun two hours sitting in LFG waiting for another tank who can linky linky. Meanwhile, Lichknig's reputation may be on a slippery slope as Armand tells his friends and guildies about his experience. Not only that, Armand may have assembled another group and led them to victory over the same instance by the time Lichknig links up with a replacement.
That's just one reason why a linky linky group could doom you to an evening of frustration.
- It damages recruitment chances by needlessly cutting out great chunks of potential recruits who may genuinely have the skill to learn the instance anew or the knowledge to do it from experience on another character. All because their toon doesn't have the achievement.
- A friend of mine has a geared but unachieved alt who keeps getting declined for the last spot of linky linky Onyxia 25 runs, yet his main regularly main tanks and raid leads successful Onyxia 25 groups
- It's all about 'ez mode'. Linky linky groups want the run to be fast, almost mechanical, with as little difficulty as possible. It's almost like expecting a group of strangers to boost you, and at level 80 end game content, for Pete's sake
- It's exclusive and Not Too Bright ™. If you teach more players the tactics or encounters then you personally will have a bigger pool of competent players from which to recruit. They'll be used to your tactics and be grateful for the experience
- It's prone to turn into a needlessly competitive environment in which players forget that their teammates are other people who they might enjoy chatting to, just as much as they forget that epics are just purple pixels. I've actually seen people insult other DPSers of their class in VoA runs, and have often wondered if they're trying to reduce the competition for loot
- The longer term effect of 'linky linky'. All of the above can combine into a solid mindset that seeps into a player and through a realm to produce a tendency to make snap judgements about other players' skill based on very little information
So what am I talking about with the last point? I was recently PUGging on my restoration shaman Apeorsa alongside a tank friend of mine. We'd not long hit 80 but were both gearing fast and are experienced players. We'd had bad luck in PUGs that week but the 'caek' was really taken on the Friday evening when we joined a VoA25 group. The raid leader was not exactly Mr. Chatty (albeit hereby christened so) and when my tank friend asked who the MT was, she was unceremoniously kicked. Apparently this was payment for her asking stupid questions like who the tanks were and for having "pathetic" health.
All very sad but so what, I hear you cry. Well, I think Mr. Chatty's attitude was partly born from the longer term linky linky effect that I mentioned. I've noticed an unpleasant tendency for some PUGgers to assume that everyone who wants to be 'on their team' will be kitted to the teeth with iLevel 245s – or at least they jolly well should be, by gosh. Anyone who isn't so kitted is in danger of being automatically weighed, measured and found wanting before they've had a chance to prove they're more than their gear. Indeed – it happens the moment they set foot in the raid or draw attention to themselves by asking the simplest of questions.
And once attention is on them – well, it's too late. The other player will judge them based on mis-information, forget that different classes and players prioritize different stats, or just look at half a picture of their stats – such as Mr. Chatty looking at the tank's health and drawing conclusions. Heaven forbid that he might look them up and get a full picture of composite stats. My tank friend wandered off after the disastrous and brief recruitment into Mr. Chatty's VoA group to easily tank Ony25. Mr. Chatty, having lost a tank and main healer team, was still in LFG 25 minutes after the incident.
There also seems to be a nasty accompanying assumption by some players that basic group information doesn't need to be shared and that anyone who asks questions is away with the fairies – or that possibly the fairies will sort everything out so they don't have to. Not only that, there's the simple fact that my tank friend felt thoroughly dejected after the response he got from Mr. Chatty. Why should we care? Simply because this is a social experience. Being an unfriendly twerp isn't going to improve the game for anyone involved.
So all in all I firmly believe that the linky linky mindset is destructive and can be emotionally taxing – or even turns its players into machines. I agree that it can be important to vet PUGgers for some things – particularly higher end raids. Personally I favour an approach which allows anyone to apply for a group spot regardless of their knowledge of the encounter. It's important to take a player's gear into account to some extent. I check everyone on WoW-Heroes before deciding if they get an invite. This gives me a better indication of their overall gearing level and stat logic for an instance than does merely looking at their total health. And to be honest – the other thing they need is not to be our Mr. Chatty. I can teach someone tactics; I can't teach them to be a Nice Person. That's when their wheels fall off as far as I'm concerned.
So what do you think? Do tell, as I'd love to get a debate going on this one – it's been a bee in my bonnet for a while now. All opinions welcome! Am I being too harsh on linky linky? Do you like the peace of mind the mindset conjures and look for raids which require you to compete and/or prove yourself? Have you had any really bad or good experiences in such a raid? What do you think the real effects of this particular – or other – types of PUG are?
And FYI – this week's picture has been photo-shopped to remove trade spam and protect the identities of people involved.
This is a post by Mimetir, a boomkin of a raid leader. You can find my twitter feed here.

If I were Cinderella, I would keep an eye on that glass slipper.
Disney World is now selling shiny, fanciful collectibles that are shaped like shoes and inspired by beloved animated characters. The shoes, about 3.5 inches tall, can also do double-duty as Christmas ornaments.
The shoes are not reproductions of, say, the footwear that Snow White sported in her 1937 film debut, but instead represent the characters' looks and personalities.
"You have to look at their costumes and their features and kind of represent those in each of the shoes," says Costa Alavezos, one of the Disney Design Group artists who designed the shoe line.
Some are straightforward and easily recognizable. A red shoe with white polka dots and mouse ears on the sides? So Minnie Mouse. Green with wings? Hello, Tinker Bell.
Others might take a moment to absorb all the details before identifying her character companion. Playing cards line the inside of the Queen of Hearts shoe; a peacock motif is on the outside of the Evil Queen shoe. Have trouble identifying characters? Their autographs are on the bottom of the shoe. (Still, it's funny to think of a monarch writing "Evil Queen" as her signature.)
"The queen has a lot more details because of the peacock feathers and the jewels that wrap around, plus you have all the gold and all the glitter," Alavezos says. "I think it was more time-consuming for the factory to produce."
The various shoe forms are not all from the same mold, unlike the majority of Disney's Vinylmation line, which starts with the blank canvas of a Mickey Mouse figurine. The Cruella De Vil shoe is longer and pointier, reflecting the "101 Dalmatians" character's sharp personality.
"You look at her clothing and her hair and whatever else she likes — puppy dogs — so we kind of put a collar on the front with a little dog tag that's hanging on the side." Alavezos says.
The heels get star treatment in several of the 19 designs. Rapunzel's heel looks like braided hair. The shoe of Ursula, footless villainess, rests upon a tentacle heel. Mary Poppins is propped up by the handle of her omnipresent umbrella.
Not all the characters are princesses.
"We know there are fans, yes, of Cinderella and Rapunzel and Ariel, but there are also fans that like some other characters," says Steven Miller, merchandise communications manager.
"It's nice to be able to offer a balance, a good mix of character designs," Miller says.
One shoe distinguishes itself from the other 18: It's inspired by a male character. The high heel for Jack Skellington ("Nightmare Before Christmas") has a bat and jack-o'-lantern motif.
"If he goes well, then there are other male ones" waiting in the wings, Alavezos says.
Each shoe has an eyelet and ribbon so it can be hung from a Christmas tree. Remove the ribbon and the shoe can stay on display year-round as a knickknack.
The shoes, which sell for $22.95 apiece, are available in select theme-park stores and at the Disney's Days of Christmas store at Downtown Disney.

The Little Blue House
Are you wondering how to keep your kids entertained on cold, wintery days when outside time is limited? So was LiEr so she made this amazing fabric playhouse for her daughter Jenna's birthday (to share with sisters Kate and Emily) that folds up small and has so many possibilities for imaginative play.
LiEr lucked into the house's underlying structure at a garage sale, but one source for this type of thing is Crazy Forts. The Little Blue House is filled with fun details like a welcome mat, flower boxes and a mail slot and comes stocked with fabric candy so the girls can turn it into a small shop to run (psst! LiEr even provides a tutorial for making lollipops). Head on over to LiEr's blog, Ikat Bag, to see more photos and read more about how she made it.
We're always in awe of LiEr's creativity and beautifully executed projects - Princess Pavilion, Play Garden and Donut Shop On-the-Go to name a few. Keep tabs on all this creativity at Ikat Bag and check out her Etsy shop too.

Esp. fun to see the bottles of Sanofloral. I'm not familiar with the brand but love to buy skin care products at French pharmacies. Sunscreens, in particular, are made to more exacting standards than in the U.S. A few years ago I found SPF 40 on sale. Pharmacies are a great place to shop if one has sensitive skin...plus the pharmacists are super helpful with recommendations.ReplyDelete
Will look for Sanoflora.
Hope you're having (had?) fun in Paris!
Gee I didn't read the labels!!ReplyDelete
must go back vite
why are my scarfes in a heap on a shelf?ReplyDelete
Impossible to choose any for whatev
FG is simply Brill.
No two ways about it.
Yes, the scarfs just work so well like that. However the space they are using is equal to my hall closet :-} So I better not do that unless I want coat hangers flung on them! LorraineReplyDelete
Love the sachets on the radiator!ReplyDelete
Love the BHV witty shade!
and...LOVE the scarf presentation!
Smart girl!!!
French girl has inspired me to buy skin care products with coordinating colors! No more green moisturizer bottle with pink cleanser for me!ReplyDelete
Another great post. I love how she hangs her scarves. Is that the closet or a pole somewhere? Love the pink inside of that Le Boulanger. And I just cut back my lavender and tossed it.. What was I thinking?? I could have done what FG did. Now you show this. :)Love the paintings she had you do also. Love how she framed them. Fun post. Sorry I am late here but we have been dealing with Tree cutting which was very stressful....ReplyDelete
yes CRIS,ReplyDelete
it's just a closet pole - nothing special. there are skirts hanging further on...
I prefer the paintings on the walls ;)ReplyDelete
French Girl would go berserk if she entered my studio. Ahhh; but I KNOW where everything is! Her focused environment is more than a bit toooo...ReplyDelete
"focused", for lack of a more primal word, for me.
But we each have our nests in which we find our own kind of comfort level.
Loved your guillotine comment.
You've got a good head on your shoulders, Carol.
Ah ha!ReplyDelete
The universal love of shopping bags is a contagion, waiting to be made into a feature Hollywood film!

Why are the rain gods picking on Deep Creek?
At least that's what some of the Answer Man's friends in Deep Creek want to know as they consider investing in rowboats they might need when the real rainy season gets here.
Come to think of it, the Answer Man was at a tournament at sunny Riverwood Golf Club one afternoon recently, while just a few miles up Route 776 in Deep Creek the creek was rising rapidly as thunderstorms pelted the area all afternoon.

The Lenz Family Prom Dress
Added May 9, 2011
by misslivia
Ellensburg, Wash...
While just one member of my family wore this dress to the prom, it was truly a group effort to get it done. My youngest sister found a beautiful and unique dress online (middle picture) but we can't afford a $400 dress for a one night shindig….so we decided to make it. My mother made the basic dress, it is a simple skirt attached to a princess-seamed boned bodice. The sister who wore the dress found some metallic fabric at the store and determined the length and width of each of the gold 'sequins'. Then came the long, long process of placing and attaching them to the dress – it took probably 20+ hours of both me and my sister working to complete the trim! Each had to be placed, pinned and then stitched down on each end. The ones on the tulle layer of the skirt were the worst because we couldn't go from sequin to sequin, we had to tie off a loop at each end of each sequin so that the thread did not show through the tulle. And we added extra silver sequins and black and silver beads to the bodice for a little more sparkle. The end product was worth every last minute of effort because she looked beautiful the night of the prom!

Despite the incredible amount of work and time it took, the dress looks fantastic! I'm impressed by the sequins – I doubt I'd have the time and patience for that.

Both teams had a sluggish first half as Grand outscored Maeser Prep 15-7 in the first quarter. But the Lions held their own in the second quarter, outscoring the Red Devils and sending Grand into halftime with a slim 25-20 lead.
Maeser Prep scored first in the third quarter, closing the gap to 25-22, but Red Devil junior Kaden Reisenhoover added a basket to bring the score to 27-22. Scoring for the Lions and the Red Devils then stalled for a short time as both teams struggled to put the ball through the net.
Eventually, Maeser Prep scored twice. Grand retaliated and senior Wesley Rodda scored on two shots in quick succession, followed by junior Nat Smith. That brought the score to 33-25 but Maeser netted a free throw to put the game at 33-26 as the third quarter ended.
Grand played tough defense and strong offense in the fourth quarter, surging to a wider lead on the play of the Red Devil upperclassmen. Junior Koi Cook and seniors Dale Thomas and Rodda made shots in quick succession, bringing the score to 42-26 before Maeser Prep managed to get back on the board. The Lions scored only a few times more in the game, but Grand went on several scoring runs, besting the Lions by nine points for the quarter. GCHS senior Brett Walker and junior Trevor Bertuzzi added the Red Devils' last points of the game, bringing the final score to 53-37.
"Our first half was pretty slow," said GCHS head coach Travis Clark. "We led at the half 25-20 but we did not have a ton of energy, and we were not rebounding well at all. I think we really need to work on that rebound. Second half... we were much better with the rebounding. We pushed the tempo and the ball a lot more, which I think made the difference for us in the game. We had some great off-the-bench performances, and the kids played really well."
The Red Devil junior varsity team also won its game against Maeser Prep by the score of 55-47. GCHS assistant coach Tony Chacon said he was happy with how his team played."
"Maeser gave a valiant effort, but once our team established the defense, we finally controlled the boards which let us come through with the win," Chacon said.
The Red Devils' next game was scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 27, at Green River. Grand's first home game will be on Friday, Nov. 30, against the Gunnison Bulldogs. Varsity play will begin at 7 p.m.

David: I was first interested in Meg when I came across her cute pictures and intriguing profile on match.com last summer.
Meg: Any ladies that have tried online dating can relate when I say that it is a bit overwhelming. There are lots of guys out there, but every once in a while someone's email will catch your eye. Last July, I got an email from David. It was short and sweet, but enough to get me to look at his profile. So, the conversation started…
David: I'm not big on email conversations, so I was a bit disappointed when Meg wanted to keep the emails going for a while and not just take a chance and meet up. But I had a good feeling about her, so I played along and kept the conversation going over email for a couple weeks.
Meg: After going on a first date, I knew David was a great guy. He was sweet, polite, attentive… all the things that a girl wants. But, I can't deny it. I have always gone for 'bad boys', so I wasn't convinced that we should go on a second date. I talked to my friend, Shannon, about it and got the best advice that I have ever received. She knew that I was looking for someone that I could spend my life with. She told me to give it a second shot because "everyone wants to date George Clooney, but you want to marry Jason Bateman."
David: Unaware that the second date wasn't a shoe-in, I had fun planning what I knew would be great 2nd date. I took Meg out on Lake Washington and we spent hours swimming, tanning on the boards and getting to know each other better. I don't think that the homemade gourmet picnic that I set up on the hill at sunset hurt because I was lucky enough to steal a kiss at the end of the night.
Meg: Everything about that day was perfect. By the end of it, I realized that I was going to fall for him. Hard.
David: Only a month later, I was pretty sure Meg was the one. I let her know how much I loved her on a long weekend getaway to New Orleans.
Meg: I was definitely surprised and overwhelmed when David told me how he felt. But, I finally believed what everyone had always told me. When you meet "the one" you just know.
David: It wasn't long after, that the planning began. I proposed to Meg six months later at the top of Crystal Mountain. I planned everything out: a private gondola ride to the summit of the mountain. A hundred roses placed perfectly overlooking a view of Mt Rainer. I even had a few of our friends secretly hiding at the top of the mountain to surprise her after I proposed. The one thing I didn't plan on that day was the whiteout blizzard that rolled a half an hour before I proposed. We lost the view of Mt Rainer, but honestly, I don't think she noticed. The second I dropped down to my knee the rest of the word disappeared.
Meg: David makes me feel the way that I've always hoped a man would make me feel; loved, supported, cherished and appreciated. My family is spread out across the country and he knew that I would be sad that they weren't there to share this special moment. So, not only did he ask their permission to marry me, but he videotaped all of their responses so that I could watch them after the proposal. Hearing my parents and siblings react as he told them he was going to propose and showing them my gorgeous ring, well it made the miles between us disappear. I will always appreciate that gesture, probably more than he will ever know.

Mayor's Office
Mayor Chris Beutler today announced that a local firm will audit the City's golf program, including its system of financial controls. The Mayor said the Lincoln Police Department (LPD) is conducting an investigation into the actions of a golf program employee.
On Thursday, July 12, the City Purchasing Division discovered the existence of a contract reportedly between the City's Ager Junior Golf Course and a local soft drink vending company. The contract had not been approved by the Mayor's Office, the City Council or the Parks and Recreation Director. It was voided Friday. The Mayor said further investigation this week shows the contract may have included terms that allegedly benefit the employee personally. The City also is examining if the arrangement was approved by the employee's supervisor.
"While the amount in question appears to be about $3,000 at this point, the utilization of public resources for private benefit of even a small amount jeopardizes the trust between the City and its citizens," Beutler said. "We have moved quickly to deal with the situation and ensure the appropriate action is taken."
Following the City's Personnel Code, the employee in question and the supervisor have been suspended for investigation purposes up to 30 days without pay. If the allegations are found to be without merit, the employees will be exonerated, reinstated and paid for the time they were suspended. If the allegations are true, appropriate disciplinary action will be taken.
"We should not assume anything until the Police Department and the auditing firm have had the opportunity to finish their work," Beutler said. "The employees involved must be presumed innocent until gathered evidence proves otherwise."
The firm that will audit the golf program is HBE, which has two nationally certified fraud examiners on staff and extensive experience working with the LPD white collar crime division.

Tobiaz necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 33 diseños de 16 diseñadores freelance.
We're a consultancy that deliver high-quality products, services and training within the IT-market.
On a day-to-day basis we deliver advanced technical training, we sell high-quality products for the Microsoft SharePoint platform and deliver a very professional consultancy services.
Our main audience are anyone working with Microsoft SharePoint in any concern - from the end-users to the high-end architects.
We would like to target our new website to our market (a very broad spectrum of clients) but without a specific tech-focus - just a generally smooth and modern design.
Visit http://www.tozit.com and have a first look of what it looks like right now.
What we want to do is to take this current design and make it better - right now it looks like a photoshop-design that didn't really make it as a professional consultancy company design.
We would like for this design to look very professional, indicate that we're confident in our business and of course to highlight a few different sections, including:
- Who are we?
- What do we do?
- Training
- Products
- References
- Blog (or link to external blog)
- Contact
Please see the attached files for the current brand, and also visit tozit.com containing the current web site.
We need to make this look more professional and not look like a one-man-band company like it looks today, as the company is expanding into a new phase.
About coloring, we would like to see either the current color-schemes, or it would probably be more professional looking with a lighter background and the darker contrasts in the menu areas.

Romney failed veterans
Yes, I'm blaming Romney for failing veterans. He ran a piss-poor campaign to attract veterans. It's been eating away at me that half of veterans in Virginia voted for Obama, if Fox News is to be believed. Of course, veterans in Virginia are going to be the hardest hit when sequestration takes hold because of the large presence of defense contractors there and the fact that many veterans are on their payroll there. But, back to the campaign. To their credit, the Romney campaign asked for help from milblogs early on, well, they reached out to Blackfive who reached out to the rest of us. I pledged that I would comment on the campaign in regards to politics related to veterans. But, you know what? That was the last we heard from them. Maybe others heard about it, but TAH didn't.
You might remember that I wrote a piece last month about the Romney campaign and veterans. That was because I had to pester John Noonan, the Romney campaign's defense policy adviser, because he happened to be one of my Facebook friends. Yes, I had to get answers on Romney's veteran policy on Facebook.
Most of the issues I asked Noonan about, I also had to provide links to news stories because he didn't know what I was talking about. Most of the news stories links were already on TAH. For example, when I asked Noonan about the Obama Administration shutting down Tricare Prime, he admitted in the email that I published as a post that he didn't know anything about it because the Obama campaign hadn't said anything about it. Why would they admit that they were screwing veterans in their campaign? It was Romney's job to point it out, but he didn't.
Just like in the debate, when Romney brought up sequestration, Obama's answer was that sequestration isn't going to happen. That short answer to a complicated question. Apparently, defense contractors think it's going to happen, they're already laying off people in prepartion of it. But Romney let Obama get away with his lie that the law wasn't going into effect instead of pressing the issue.
The weekend of Hurricane Sandy, I wrote to Noonan again on Facebook and told him that I knew the campaign was going to cease out of respect for the tragedy and that they should mount an offensive on the blogs and let us carry Romney's water for him during the campaign blackout. I didn't hear anything back from him, not a word. Well, except the one video he sent everyone about Bill Clinton, which I dutifully posted.
Now, I'm not so conceited that I think I can influence entire elections with my little corner of the internet, but, if political campaigns can't take advantage of the reach some of us have, they really don't want to win. Do you honestly think that Obama would have got half of the veteran vote in Virginia if they had heard that Tricare Prime was being shut down in five western states in April? Everyone on this blog knows it, why didn't the Romney campaign know it, and once they were told about it, why didn't they hit Obama with it?
Yeah, Romney failed veterans by taking our votes for granted and it may have cost him the election.

- 18% found the websites 'not useful'
- 8% found them 'useless'
- Only 6% said social media was 'very useful' for their business
- 31% do not use social media at all
Forum spokesman Phil McCabe said: "Our research makes for interesting reading – around a quarter of smaller businesses in the East Midlands use social media and think it works, a quarter of firms use it but don't think it works, and the remaining half either only utilise it for personal use or don't use it at all.

The survey also found that 22% of SMEs in East Midlands don't have a website.
I have to admit to being surprised that only 6% of people found that social media was very useful – that statistic on its own opens up a few more questions:
- Did those 6% have any sort of strategy?
- How long did they 'do' social media for?
- How did they measure it?
- Did they engage, or did they broadcast?
- What were their expectations in the first place?
Are you one of the businesses polled in the survey? I'd be interested to hear your thoughts below.

For a concept whose roots date back to the early 1930s and the last time this country found itself in as deep an economic funk as it is today, the "Buy America" provision in President Obama's stimulus package has roared back onto the American industrial/manufacturing scene with lightning-rod quickness and controversy
Red, white and blue through-and-through, the provision has stirred a hornet's nest of high emotion, self-righteous rhetoric (both pro and con), a Congressional Steel Caucus hearing and electronic mailboxes full of letters to the editors of publications across this country and the world. "Buy America" has pitted industry analysts against academics and international trade association heads and labor union leaders against some of their peers.
More disturbing and down-to-earth than the legal/philosophical arguments over free trade vs. protectionism, the provision has put American steel mills at odds with some consumers, who have expressed concerns that the stipulation could actually cost fabricators jobs by forcing the purchase of more-expensive, home-grown steel.
The phenomena is not a new one. The fact is, with or without the latest reprisal of "Buy America," there is not a lot of love among steel distribution and consumer circles these days for the mills they source steel from. Many are still smarting—and struggling, or worse—from the steep run-up in steel prices that saw hot-rolled sheet tags in the U.S. jump from about $560 per ton at the end of 2007 to around $1,100 per ton by last August, when the bottom began to fall out. Of course, there are ample explanations (other than the profit motive and raw opportunism) for last year's breathtaking escalation in steel prices—the emergence of China and the closely linked commodities boom, to name two.
Then there was another breed of unofficial, ad hoc "Buy America" that the world's scrap consumers took to heart and, in the process, sent U.S. ferrous scrap prices through the roof. It didn't take long for those increases to translate into surcharges, which were handily passed along to steel consumers.
"Who was thinking about American jobs then?" asks one veteran purchasing manager for a large manufacturer of material handling products, who also sees a direct connection between escalating steel prices at home and the decision by many top-tier U.S. mills at the time to push deeper into the export market. "Their choice to export product at a much higher selling price forced American manufacturers to purchase at that elevated price or close their doors," the procurement professional said. "It was done so fast that many very good companies did not have the reserves or credit lines to keep up."
"My message to the U.S. mills is simple," she said. "You want us to buy American, then sell American."
Strong words, and not without merit. It's tough to argue against the essential logic and rightness of using American taxpayers' money to create American jobs. It's almost as tough to justify waving the American flag only when profits are at stake.
