DownTown Rampage
Gecko! created a track that requires speed and skill. This track was made with the snow mod for bay but it still works on the normal mod.

Oxo's First Map
It's not the best track there is, but give the little guy a chance, and By The Way, it's not so bad.

ILS TheSUN 3.7
After trouble with tracks that use alot off coppers und onlinegaming I edited the track and made a 3700 copper version of it.
I hope the beginning is not too hard, but you have to drive a bit left (maybe right, too, but I know it works like that) and you need to drive straight.
This track is hot like hell!
Weird Groundz
Here's an island by night. Formerly building to run several laps, after all it's one lap. The start is the finish and the middle section. From 3rS4Tz.

17 seconds PF followed by about 30 seconds of high-precision driving: one U turn, two 90 left turns, one chicane and a dodge. Try it!
Red Bridge
In this track there are many possibility cheats in stunts to use, to be able to use how for example abbreviations! Many good jumps and two loops are only part more atemberraubender stretch! Unfortunately without MT of effects.
Another hard map by drshark, you will get loads of speed with the boosts n this map.
4Roads (04-Jun-2005)

This map is based around a large three-stage labyrinth. You may find this easy if your know where you are going otherwise you may end up going round in circles forever.
Here's an island track from 3rS4Tz. It's for wallriders and loops' drunkards. If you like those kinds of run, why don't you try it... Jumps and speed are at the Rendez-Vous.
A short action loaded sunset island track. Speed and skill are the essence here this track is intermediate difficulty because the jumps add a tricky aspect to this track.
A nice Island track. Will not work in the demo!
This is quick and fun, with two jumps to the finish.
Crackpatch mini 2
A small and very simple coast track, the key to which is timing when lining yourself up to loop the loop. Expect fast times from this map if you complete it without falling off the loop.
Tunnel Trouble 3
A pretty quick race, but improves your skills in the tunnel world. The end may be a bit aggrevating, but when you come out of the tunnel, turn LEFT.
Sea Bowl
A fun but rather difficult map, have fun and get that air!
Complex (Demo)
Here is my attempt at the most amount of track fit into the least amount of space.

Good looking and interesting bay map designed for stunts.

Concrete Heart 537
A fun short race track that I did after feeling a little depressed since my best friend's girlfriend died in a car accident.
A fast and furious Bay track, specifically built for multiplayer. It's a short track overlapping itself so you should have plenty of opportunity to see your opponents flying past!

Secluded Haven is a marathon 5 laps around a track which is all about speed and timing in the air to land the perfect jumps on this coastal map.
Night track with some heights and some depths. You might wanna do some aircontroll on the jump in the screenshot because you need that piece of road before the corner.

Sunday, July 18, 2010
So, I got to play my first game with my new Pathfinders and Rangers, which was also my first game at a new store. I hadn't played for 7 months due to work commitments, so I was pretty upbeat. I managed to get in two games with two similar army lists both were "Dawn of War" deployments. Not going to bore you with the complete breakdown, but each list had 2 x 10 Pathfinders, 10 Rangers and 5 Dark Reapers. The problem for me is the Dawn of War being one third of the deployments will crush my multiple rangers/pathfinders ability to shoot and deploy in some sort of cover. Also, dark reapers now lose one turn of shooting because in a third of games they have to walk onto the table.
I suppose if my previous store's opponents had played anything other than standard deployment and annihilation I would have known better. Hopefully, I can get some better deployment rolls in the future. But I definitely will be tweaking the list to help with DoW deployments. Still going to take 3 units of Pathfinders/Rangers though! Might put the one unit of rangers in reserve and try to grab some terrain through an outflank.

Editor views to a kill
Entry posted by Ravuya ·

So I have entities visible in the editor now. This is actually a pretty big step to visualizing the game as it goes together, and I probably should start work on the entity-add-and-edit tool in the editor. But for now, another 10 minute task completed... and a ten minute task that will probably save me hours in the future.

Spring is FINALLY here, although the "nice" weather is more of a tease then a beacon of hope. But at this point, I'll take any good weather where I can get it. That being said, my favvvorite time of year is coming up – farmers market season 🙂
Baltimore hosts a weekly farmers market under JFX, on Sundays, that if you haven't been to, you are seriously missing out. It's like a mini city under a bridge with local vendors for fresh produce, meats, cheeses, milk, pies, beef jerky, hummus, coffee, falafel wraps, homemade mini donuts, bread & baked goodies, homemade pasta, fresh flowers, crafts, and I could go onn and onn and onn. It is phenomenal and incredibly cost friendly (ex. 3 peppers for a dollah).
Here's a picture of Sunday morning's entertainment at the market:
I wanted to share this link I came across that helps identify the best produce at markets. It goes through each item and tells you what its peak season is for buying at the market. This way, you know when your really getting a deal.

Well, I go to purchase it today, and the download constantly says "download unsuccessful" Any ideas? I've tried restarting the phone and everything with no fix! I paid for the app and would like to use it!

TV Lovers Unite: 2014 Desktop Calendars
Here's three calendars for TV addicts to grace on or above your desk...or anywhere around the house you like to keep a calendar to refer to:
Parks and Rec Calendar: $24
Paperchat is creating some of the most hilarious Parks and Rec art online. Who doesn't want to sit down to work with a giant "Treat Yo Self" message in their face? I do, that's for sure.
Twin Peaks Skinny Calendar: $25
Many of the phrases and quotes from David Lynch's beloved TV series Twin Peaks can seem sort of ridiculous on the surface. But the truth is the show is filled with really good advice or insight, like: "Achievement is its own reward, pride obscures it", "Don't search for all the answers at once. A path is formed by laying one stone at a time", and my personal favorite, "Everyday, once a day, give yourself a present" (I can get behind that). Calendar designs inspired by the now iconic show are available at, So It Goes Shop on Etsy.
Cute Superhero Calendar: $25
Whether it's the animated series, The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, or the upcoming Agents of Shield, or the long-gone, but much lauded animated Justice League you love - this calendar by Loopz Art offers an adorable edition of illustrations for hero worship for fans of the mightiest team of superheroes.

A demanding schedule is the status quo for varsity athletes. A unique balance between school and sports is required to have success both on the court and in the classroom.
This balance is one that Haly Hawkins has managed to perfect. Heading into her third year of Graphic Design and second year on the Fanshawe Women's Basketball team, her hard work has been recognized by the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association.
Hawkins was recently awarded the CCAA National Scholar Award, which aims to recognize the outstanding academic accomplishments of CCAA student athletes. The award is given to individuals who achieve honours standing throughout the academic year. For Hawkins, this award applies to the 2016-2017 season; the same season that the team won a bronze medal at the provincial championships.
Hawkins learned a lot about work ethic and sacrifice throughout her first year on the team. Between workouts, practices, games, and tournaments, any free time was consumed by assignments and studying. Once she got used to the demanding schedule, Hawkins began to see how playing varsity basketball helped shape her work ethic. "Basketball keeps me on my toes. If I only had school to worry about, I would have a lot of free time. But given this busy schedule, I'm consistently motivated to stay on top of my responsibilities."
Hawkins highlighted that the biggest lesson she has learned from playing varsity basketball is the importance of teamwork. Even though she has been an athlete her whole life, Hawkins stated that playing at the college level has shown her how crucial it is to work well with those around you. "If you can work well with those around you, that's when you'll have the most success."
In terms of keys to success for student athletes and college students alike, Hawkins keeps it simple. "Keep a planner, make sure you know your various schedules and communicate with your teachers. If you stay on top of things, it makes the busy schedule much more enjoyable."

[Update below.] 2:30 a.m. EST: It is with great sadness that we report the tragic passing of habochur Moshe Berkowitz z"l. Moshe, a talmid at Yeshiva Ohr Yitzchok (Rabbi Wallerstein's yeshiva) on East 15th Street in Flatbush, was killed this evening in a car accident at Avenue N and Ocean Avenue in Flatbush. He was 25.
It is believed that the driver of the vehicle that took Moshe's life was under the influence of alcohol. That driver was taken to nearby Kings County Hospital.
The accident occurred at about 11:30 p.m. As Moshe was driving on Avenue N toward Ocean Avenue, his car was hit with great force. Efforts to save Moshe by Flatbush Hatzolah members at the scene and physicians at Maimonides Medical Center in Boro Park were to no avail.
Levaya and kevurah info will be posted once it is finalized.
Umacha Hashem dimah mei'al kol ponim.
The following is a WABC report:
An apparent drunk driver sideswiped a vehicle, killing a 25-year-old yeshiva student in the Midwood section of Brooklyn.
The victim's Mercury Sable, headed north on Ocean Avenue, was struck by a southbound Volkswagen Passat just after 11:30 p.m. Monday night.
An ambulance rushed Moshe Berkowitz to Maimonides Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.
The 23-year-old driver of the other vehicle and his female passenger were taken to Kings County Hospital for treatment of non life-threatening injuries.
Detectives believe the driver was drunk, and charges are pending.
Berkowitz was a yeshiva student at Yeshiva Ohr Yitzchok in Flatbush.
The following is a NY Daily News report:
A 25-year-old Brooklyn yeshiva student was killed when his car was struck by a drunken driver who may have been drag racing, police sources and a witness said.
The crash occurred on Ocean Ave. near Avenue N just after 11:35 p.m. Monday, police said.
The victim was driving a red Mercury Sable north on Ocean Ave. when he was struck by a southbound black Volkswagen that crossed the double yellow line, cops said.
The victim was rushed to Maimonides Hospital, where he died a short time later.
The suspect and a woman in the car with him were taken to the same hospital with minor injuries, police said. The driver's blood-alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit of .08, sources said, and he is expected to be charged with vehicular manslaughter and driving while intoxicated.
A witness to the aftermath of the crash said the suspect and his passenger reeked of booze.
The witness, who identified himself only as Chad P., said two cars carrying the suspect's friends pulled up moments after the collision.
"They were talking about racing, but then they started speaking in Russian so I didn't understand," Chad P. said. "The people in the other two cars took off after only a minute or two."

BlackBerry Runs Low on Juice
Returning Company to Profitability May Be Too Much to Ask From Classic
When the soon-to-be most powerful man on earth loves your product so much that he says the government will have to "pry it out of my hands," business must be pretty good.
BlackBerry Ltd. had around half of the global smartphone market in January 2009 when President-elect Barack Obama handed them the sort of advertising that money can't buy. BlackBerry had seen its market value peak at $55 billion the previous June.

- RocioCorreaAsked on December 08, 2015 at 03:23 PM
I had created some forms. Actually I had just one problem before I can get my FORM completely useful.
I created one Form called "PRUEBA DE PREGUNTAS" and this form has questions with:
-GPS direction
-GET VISITOR LOCATION (show)
-GET VISITOR LOCATION (hide)
But I tried to answer it in iPad and when the user enters to the link, in all those questions just appears the name of the question, but doesn't appear anything else. What can I do? I need to get the location from the place that the user is answering.
Also, I answered the same Form in iPad & screen computer.... and when I get the Excel Report:
The only questions that have an answer are: GPS location (visible), GPS LOCATION (LATTITUDE AND LONGITTUDE VISIBLE). But only when I answered it in my computer. Not in ipad.... I need to see those answers in the ipad.....
And "GET VISITOR LOCATION" is the adress from what?
- JotForm SupportjonathanAnswered on December 08, 2015 at 04:45 PM
Can you please try first using the secure URL of the form. Try this URL https://www.jotform.com/53407251265855
The some widgets not requires the browser secure protocol. So this could be the reason why the widget was not working properly on the Ipad browser.
Please let us know if issue persist even after doing this process.
- RocioCorreaAnswered on December 08, 2015 at 05:31 PM
The URL is exactly the same that I send yesterday at night and one person answered the Form yesterday. But doesn't appear anything in the ipad.
- JotForm SupportjonathanAnswered on December 08, 2015 at 08:19 PM
I was able to see the problem now. I test the form on Ipad browser, but the GPS Location widget was not consistently appears on th Ipad browser.
since the widget is not visible, the end-user will not be able to answer the location question.
BUT the widget works just finde when using another device browser like the iphone
I have submitted a bug ticket report to our higher team support to check on this.
We will let you know once we have fixed.
For the meantime, I also suggest testing the widget while using only a single GPS location widget on the Form. I noticed that it seems to work well when only 1 GPS Location widget is on the form. Using multiple GPS widget seems to cause lag and break some functionality.
Hope this help. Let us know if you need further assistance.
- RocioCorreaAnswered on December 09, 2015 at 11:15 AM
Ok... But we can use the location widget on ipad? I understand that iPhone will work, but we need it on iPad.
In addition, I placed the seen and unseen questions to see which works but none Works correctly.
I tried all the posible location questions only to see which works, but on the form I will use just one.
Hope you can help me!
- CharlieAnswered on December 09, 2015 at 01:35 PM
As mentioned by my colleague, the GPS location widget does not seem to work on iPad right now, he has already forwarded this to our developers to have it checked and fixed.
We'll need to wait for the developers to have this fixed.
Have you tried using the Get Visitor Location widget? It captures the exact location of the user including the address, and it works in iPad.
- RocioCorreaAnswered on December 09, 2015 at 02:32 PM
I'd used "Get Visitor Location widget", but it sends the location from the city. We need to have the exact location of the user, not the general location of the city.
Hope you can help me.
- JotForm SupportKevin_GAnswered on December 09, 2015 at 05:30 PM
I have checked the widget and yes, you do not get the exact location , you only get the general data like Country, Region and City, in the settings I can not find a way to show the exact location info.
You will get news soon in regards to the issue with the GPS Location widget.
Thank you for your understanding.
- JotForm SupportTitusNdokaAnswered on May 18, 2016 at 11:40 PM
Sorry for the long wait.
We've investigated the issue and found that it has to do with your privacy settings on geolocation, as shown here.
Please allow your location to be accessed by your Safari browser, and the widgets should work as intended.
Give that a try and let us know how it goes.
Thank you for your patience.

lagos—Following the gridlock arising from the traffic congestion in Apapa and its environs, the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency, LASEMA, has reiterated its readiness to respond to any emergency situation in and around Apapa or any other part of the state.
The General Manager, LASEMA, Mr. Adesina Tiamiyu, said this yesterday, in Alausa that the agency is exploring various possibilities in ensuring quick and adequate response in case of any form of emergency in the area or any part of the State.
According to him, "The agency is looking into the possibility of setting up a temporary dispatched point for quick and adequate response to any case of emergency.
"While the agency's bikers have been dispatched for close monitoring and surveillance of the situation for necessary attention when required with the agency further looking at other avenues for periodic situation report in management of any situation in the area."
Tiamiyu assured that the Lagos State government is alive to its responsibilities in ensuring adequate safety of lives and properties and will not allow any unfortunate incident to occur as a result of the bottleneck.
He, however, advised Lagosians, especially residents of Apapa and its environs to remain calm and to also call the 112/767 for any emergency.

Seminar Group:
Nanopores emerged as the basis for preparation of sensors for molecules as well as model system to study interactions of water, ions and molecules at the nanoscale. My group prepares single pores in polymer and silicon nitride films with tunable opening diameter down to ~2 nm, controllable geometry, and chemical characteristics of the pore walls. I will present our results on building valves for water and molecules based on pores with hydrophobic walls. We showed that single hydrophobic nanopores could undergo reversible wetting and dewetting due to condensation and evaporation of water inside the pores. The wetting/dewetting process was observed as switching between conducting and non-conducting ionic states, and was regulated by the external electric field.
Being inspired by unique transport properties of biological channels in a cell membrane, we prepare polymer nanopores of similar transport properties to these of biochannels. I will summarize our efforts to create a synthetic analogue of biological voltage-gated channels.
I will also describe advantages of using high aspect ratio pores with undulating pore diameter in the detection of viruses. The 'rough' pores give information not only on the size of the passing object but also its shape and mechanical properties.

In February 2000, I spotted an irresistible option trade.
It was a no-brainer – almost as if the guys on the option trading floors were holding up signs announcing "FREE MONEY."
So, I backed up my wheelbarrow and loaded up.
It was the most profitable trade of my career… But it almost bankrupted me first.
The story is 17 years old, and my memory isn't what it once was, so the finer details may not be exact. But here's basically what happened…
PALM, the maker of smartphones and other handheld technology products, was scheduled to go public on March 2, 2000. The company was a wholly owned subsidiary of 3Com – which was issuing about 20% of the company to the public and taking advantage of the insane valuations of the internet mania.
The IPO price was set at $38. Of course, we all knew the stock would open for trading way above that level because, well… that's just what stocks did back then.
In January 2000, shares of 3Com were trading at about $50. By the last week of February, they were crossing the tape at more than $90.
The market was already pricing in the increased valuation of 3Com shares as a result of the PALM IPO. In the option markets, the expectations had risen to purely foolish levels.
The 3Com March $120 call options were trading for about $6. In other words, call buyers were willing to pay $600 for the right to buy 100 shares of 3Com at $120 per share over the next four weeks.
3Com was trading at $90 – already up 80% in the past month! It would have to go up another 33% in the next four weeks for these calls to be worth anything at all by the time they expired.
Sellers of the call options would receive $600 for each contract and would be obligated to sell shares of 3Com at $120 if the stock was above that level on option expiration day.
|Recommended Link
The pricing of these options was just nuts, and it was the result of tremendous hype surrounding the PALM IPO – hype that would disappear as soon as the stock went public.
I did the only thing I could do… I sold the call options and collected $600 on each contract. In fact, since the premium was so large and the potential for profit was so high, I took a position that was about three times my normal size.
And the hype continued…
The next day, just three trading days before the PALM IPO, shares of 3Com rallied to $95, and the option premiums inflated further. The March $120 call options, which I had sold the day before for $6, were now trading at $10. I was down $400 per contract in just one day.
So, I sold more.
That's right. I increased my position size even more. Not only that, I started telling my clients about this trade and encouraging them to take positions. I even put my own brokerage firm's money into the trade. I was THAT certain it would be a winner.
3Com went higher the next day, too. It was now at $96 per share, and – in a further display of the power of hype – the March $120 call options went up more than the stock. The options I sold at $6, and then again at $10, were now at $14.
I sold more. I also started selling the March $130, $140, and $150 calls as well. The option premiums were just too large not to. And the probability of the stock rallying above $120 (let alone $130, $140, or $150) was so remote that I rationalized it was OK to keep the exposure.
Then came the morning of the PALM IPO.
I hadn't slept at all the night before. I was sitting at my desk and staring through an assortment of half-empty Pepto-Bismol bottles at the television screen on the other side of my office.
Maria Bartiromo and Bob Pisani were on CNBC. They were talking about the tremendous interest investors had in the PALM IPO. Early indications were that PALM – which was priced at $38 for the IPO – would open for trading somewhere north of $150 per share.
My stomach sank, and I slammed my forehead onto the top of my desk.
If PALM was worth $150 per share, then a quick "back of the napkin" calculation told me 3Com was worth more than $300 per share.
|Recommended Link
I had agreed to sell it for $120. My exposure was so large that anything above $180 would bankrupt me. It would wipe out my account, put my firm under the minimum net capital requirements, and create huge losses for my clients.
I started to panic. I started typing an order to cover the position and take the loss while there was still time. 3Com was trading at $105, and the March $120 call options were $18. It would be a tough loss to swallow, but I'd remain solvent, and I'd be around to trade the next day.
Just as I finished typing the order and was about to hit the "send" key, I stopped. A voice in the back of my head said, "It's all hype. You've seen this before and you know how it's going to end. You used logic and common sense when you got into the position. Now you're about to panic to get out."
I erased my order entry screen, stood up from my desk, and unplugged the television. I then left my office for two hours.
PALM started trading about one hour later. It opened at $140 per share, the high of the day, and then began drifting lower.
3Com never traded above $110. And as soon as PALM went public, 3Com started to sell off. It was a typical, and predictable, "sell on the news" situation.
When I returned to the office, 3Com was trading at $85 and the March $120 call options, which I had sold for $6, $10, and $14 – and which had traded as high as $20 earlier in the day – were now worth just $0.06. Every contract I had sold for a minimum of $600 now cost just $6 to buy back…
The trade that had threatened to bankrupt me just a few hours earlier had now made a fortune. My clients were rich. My firm was rich. And my own net worth nearly doubled as a result.
I shut my office door, turned off the lights, sat down at my desk, and closed my eyes. And I swore I would never, ever do that again.
|Recommended Link
There's no need to.
The option market provides any number of ways to take advantage of mispriced, overhyped situations without exposing yourself to tremendous risks.
I could have employed a relatively simple strategy that would have been equally as profitable, but considerably reduced my risks had I just done a little extra homework.
I started thinking about this trade over the past weekend when I looked at another situation that the market was mispricing. The stock was down 35% in just the past few weeks, and option prices seemed to me to be "out of whack."
Once again, they were holding up the "FREE MONEY" sign.
This time, though, I crafted a trade with far less risk exposure. I shared this trade with Delta Report subscribers this week.
Best regards and good trading,
Jeff Clark
Editor, Delta Report

Chattanooga in Hamilton County, Tennessee — The American South (East South Central)
Medal of Honor Heritage Trail
Missionary Ridge - November - 1863
Three of these soldiers from the 11th Ohio Infantry and one from the 31st Ohio were awarded the Medal of Honor for the valor they showed going up the ridge in the face of massed artillery and musket fire with such determination that nothing could stand in their path. In his formal report of the action, General Turchin stated: "James B. Bell, Color Sergeant, Eleventh Ohio, who was wounded in five places before he gave up; Corpl. George Greene and Private H.R. Howard, of the same regiment, who captured the rebel flag; James Walker, Private Thirty-first Ohio, who carried the colors after 2 color bearers had fallen, and captured one of the enemy's flags… should all be promoted"
John B. Bell joined the 11th Ohio infantry at Camp Dennison near Cincinnati, Ohio. He was Colors Sergeant for the regiment when the unit fought at Missionary Ridge as a part of General John B. Turchin's Brigade. Sergeant James B. Bell's Medal of Honor citation stated: "Though severely wounded, was first of his regiment on the summit of the ridge, planted his colors inside the
George Green of Elsham, England was a corporal in the 11th Ohio Infantry when he went up the ridge with Turchin's men. Many of the attacking Federal soldiers fell before a severe fusillade of enemy fire, but Corporal Green continued until he approached the works and leaped over the enemy's fortifications. There Corporal Green and Private Hiram Howard found the color bearer of the 18th Alabama Infantry and wrested the flag from him in combat. They earned Medals of Honor for heroism in action.
On August 4, 1862, Arthur MacArthur, at the age of 17, was commissioned First Lieutenant and appointed Adjutant of the 24th Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry Regiment. In the attack on Missionary Ridge he was in General Philip Sheridan's Division a short distance south of Turchin's Brigade. Noon passed, then 1 and 2 p.m., then guided by the beat of drums and the sound of bugles the Army of the Cumberland charged on a dead run toward the enemy rifle pits three quarters of a mile away. Sheridan's 1st Brigade and the 24th Wisconsin were the first to hit the Confederate rifle pits. Up the ridge, Capt. Edwin Parsons, of Company K, jumped into the pits with MacArthur right on his heels. Lieutenant MacArthur seized his unit's colors and planted them on the enemy breastworks, thus rallying the

Surprisingly, I slept well last night likely due to the pleasant distraction of the Dartmouth Friends meeting in New York City which had me traveling the last two days. It was good to be tired and to be able to sleep! And, to keep busy or at least occupied.
On a day like today and the days leading up to it, I find myself reflecting on where I am now. We just adopted a rescue which falls squarely into my thinking now - why wait. Is there ever a perfect time and who knows what tomorrow will bring. (It brought us Brady, a wriggly 6 month old french bulldog.)
I also think about my friend who goes in today, too, for an 18 month check up, my friend who confided in me over the weekend about his newly diagnosed cancer and when he will tell his children, and my friend who has more testing the end of the month before starting a clinical trial. I'm thankful for all my friends who are survivors.
And, I am still feeling pretty lucky. I got this message from one of my athletes this morning, "GOOD LUCK LINDA!!!!!!!!!!! I hope you indeed have kicked cancer's behind!!!!" That's the plan, H, that's the plan.
A quick reminder about my "on the bike" effort to kick cancer's behind more broadly. I'll be riding in the PMC to support research and finding a cure. You can help too by visiting my donor page at http://www2.pmc.org/profile/LM0272
Thank you!
OK, off to confirm the demise.

Scott dropped me off at home and said he genuinely hoped he would see me again while I was here. This time we did exchange phone numbers. He gave me a hug while we were still seated in the car. It was slightly awkward, but also nice. When I walked into the house, I saw that my sister Louise and her husband Robert had arrived from Burlington, Vermont. It was great to see them.

Big changes ahead for patients
For years, Marcia Andrews visited the same internist in Washington, D.C. Then she turned 65, got her Medicare card and had to find a new doctor: Her internist was not accepting Medicare patients. Primary care doctors are in such demand now that they can choose not to accept Medicare, whose reimbursements to physicians are lower than private insurance rates.
The doctor shortage is worse than most people think," says Steven Berk, M.D., dean of the School of Medicine at Texas Tech University. "The population is getting older, so there's a greater need for primary care physicians. At the same time, physicians are getting older, too, and they're retiring earlier," Berk says. And graying doctors — nearly half the nation's 830,000 physicians are over age 50 — are seeing fewer patients than they did four years ago, a 2012 Physicians Foundation survey reported.
Soon, this fraying primary care network will face another huge challenge: Under the Affordable Care Act, millions of formerly uninsured men and women will have access to health care.
"We need to absorb these 30 million people, and that's going to be a strain," says Russell Phillips, M.D., director of Harvard Medical School's new Center for Primary Care.
A fundamental change
The approach most favored by experts at Harvard and elsewhere is to reshape traditional primary care: from a stream of patients waiting to see one harried doctor to a more efficient team practice in which patients with routine problems are seen by nurse-practitioners and physician assistants — trained specialists with master's degrees. The team frees the doctor to spend more time with patients with more serious complaints.This change could be as fundamental as the one that took place when most family doctors stopped making Marcus Welby-like house calls.
The Affordable Care Act encourages such a sea change, with provisions that aim to shore up and expand the country's ailing primary care system while still reducing costs.
The ACA authorizes money to increase the primary care workforce by training more doctors, nurses, nurse-practitioners and physician assistants. It includes more graduate medical education training positions, with priorities for primary care and general surgery, and more money for scholarships and loans for all health professionals. The law expands the number of patients seen at community health centers in areas with too few doctors and increases the number of staffers who work in the centers. It also expands nurse-managed clinics at nursing schools where nurses in training see patients who live in the area.
Another key provision: a 10 percent bonus, through 2015, to primary care doctors who offer services to Medicare patients.
But in these times of shrinking federal budgets, it's unclear how much ACA primary care money will be available as Congress juggles competing priorities. Congress, for example, already has chopped about $6.25 billion from the ACA's new $15 billion Prevention and Public Health Fund, which pays for programs to reduce obesity, stop smoking and otherwise promote good health. In addition, federal support for training all types of physicians, including primary care doctors, is targeted for cuts by President Obama and Congress, Republicans and Democrats, says Christiane Mitchell, director of federal affairs for the Association of American Medical Colleges, who calls the proposed cuts "catastrophic."
A recent study by the Institute of Medicine and the National Research Council reports that, when compared with citizens of 16 other high-income democracies, including those of Western Europe, Japan and Canada, Americans not only die younger but have poorer overall health. The researchers traced U.S. health disadvantages to a number of causes, including the fact that Americans have "more limited access to primary care."
Where have all the doctors gone?
Today, the United States is short about 16,000 primary care doctors — the very doctors (family practitioners, internists and pediatricians) who offer the treatments and preventive screenings that save lives and head off expensive emergency room visits and hospitalizations.
Why the shortage? It starts with huge medical school debts and ends with a doctor who is often overworked and underpaid. While students may enter medical school wanting to practice primary care medicine, they graduate saddled with heavy debt — $250,000 is not unusual — which prompts them to switch to a more lucrative specialty. The starting salary for a primary care physician is $150,000 to $170,000; a radiologist or gastroenterologist can make two to three times that.
Only one in five graduating internal medicine residents plans to go into primary care medicine, the Journal of the American Medical Association reports.
As patients struggle to find a doctor and get the care they want, when the want it, will those willing to pay be able have another option than the traditional system? Concierge medicine offers an alternative to those who do not mind paying for it. A concierge doctor will provide personalized care for a direct payment outside of healthcare insurance and in some cases for a modest fee. If you are not happy with the current health care you receive check online to find a concierge doctor. Explore your options that will ensure that you have the care you deserve, concierge medicine may be the answer.

Category: Vitamin D Deficiency-Diagnosis and Treatment
Despite spending time outdoors, many people still end up receiving unhealthy vitamin D test results. While the nutrient is produced in the skin following exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays, there are many other things that can affect the production of vitamin D aside from time spent in the sun.
A Harvard Medical School researcher recently told the Detroit Free Press that where a person lives has a significant impact on their body's ability to produce vitamin D. For example, those who live at higher latitudes get much fewer UV rays, making them more prone to deficiency. Additionally, air pollution can block this radiation, preventing the body from using it.
Michael Holick, a Boston University researcher who has spent much time studying vitamin D, reported in the Mayo Clinic Proceedings that up to 36 percent of the general population has low levels of the nutrient.
Aside from a person's location, he blamed poor diets for the high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency. He recommends that people take supplements if they receive an unhealthy vitamin D test.

I've been pretty silent recently, due mostly to the fact that I've been a little depressed. As I said before, Booktrope's closing has been really rough on me. Without resources to self-publish The Detective's Brother, it leaves me with no books available to promote or sell and no means to go forward self-publishing on my own with any degree of professionalism. As much as I would like to put out my own work, the fact remains that I just can't afford it.
Our family's circumstances have changed dramatically in the months since Booktrope closed, and part of the reason I went with Booktrope in the first place was because I didn't have the money or resources to self-publish on my own. Now that we're in an even worse place financially (temporarily, I hope!), I'm stuck with a lot of work that may or may not ever see the light of day.
I do have a couple of publishers I would like to submit work to, but to submit Detective's Brother to them I need to have it free and clear from my Booktrope obligations and right now I don't have the money to do that. I'm looking to submit Turn the Page to a small publisher as well but I need to finish editing it first. I've got so much to do and zero motivation to do it.
It doesn't help that I see friends who have been able to turn their Booktrope titles around and self-publish them having success because I know that if I had the money to do what they have, I might be in a different place. Instead I'm back to where I started before I was ever picked up by the now-defunct Sinnful E-Books.
I envy people who say they've never considered giving up on writing. I'm not saying I'm giving up, but this is the sort of thing that makes me want to curl up in a corner and never touch a computer again.
I'm tired. Just tired.

Proposed Rulemaking
Act 108, Session Laws of Hawaii 2014 (Act 108), transferred the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) from Department of Budget and Finance (B&F) to Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs (DCCA). The numbering system for the Hawaii Administrative Rules (HAR) uses different numbers for different departments. The B&F rules are in Title 6, and the DCCA rules are in Title 16.
Therefore, in accordance with Act 108, four chapters of the HAR will move, substantially as-is, from B&F (Title 6) to DCCA (Title 16). To change the numbers requires the simultaneous repeal of the existing chapters (in the B&F title) and adoption of new chapters (in the DCCA title). The existing and new chapters are provided below:
- Repeal: Chapter 6-61, Rules of Practice and Procedure before the Public Utilities Commission
- Adopt: Chapter 16-601, Rules of Practice and Procedure before the Public Utilities Commission
- Repeal: Chapter 6-63, Motor Carrier Tariffs and Schedules
- Adopt: Chapter 16-603, Motor Carrier Tariffs and Schedules
- Repeal: Chapter 6-65, Water Carriers
- Adopt: Chapter 16-605, Water Carriers
- Repeal: Chapter 6-68, Investigation and Enforcement of Laws Governing Public Utilities, Motor Carriers, and Water Carriers
- Adopt: Chapter 16-608, Investigation and Enforcement of Laws Governing Public Utilities, Motor Carriers, and Water Carriers
Public hearings were held to receive testimony related to the simultaneous repeal of four (4) and adoption of four (4) chapters of the Hawaii Administrative Rules, described above. There were no objections.
Since the rules are commonly cited in matters brought before the PUC, an effort will be made to inform the public and regulated entities prior to the effective date of the repeal and adoption.
The final, formatted rules are to be filed with the office of the Lieutenant Governor.
After that, the rules become effective either:
- Automatically, 10 days after filing with the office of the Lieutenant Governor; or
- Upon a later date specified in the rules, although the later date shall not be more than 30 days after filing with the office of the Lieutenant Governor.
It is our intention, to allow for ample prior notice and to minimize confusion, that the change will take place with the start of the new calendar year in 2019.

567 STRANGE SIGHTS IN FAR-AWAY PAPUA outside of the web to about 's inch at the center. The web was most substan tial, and had great resisting power, a fact of which the natives were not slow to avail themselves, for they have pressed into the service of man this spider, which is about the size of a small hazel-nut, with hairy, dark-brown legs spreading to about 2 inches. This diligent creature they have beguiled into weaving their fishing nets. At the place where the webs are thickest they set up long bam boos, bent over into a loop at the end. In a very short time the spider weaves a web on this most convenient frame, and the Papuan has his fishing net ready to his hand. He goes down to the stream and uses it with great dexterity to catch fish of about one pound weight, neither the water nor the fish sufficing to break the mesh. The usual practice is to stand on a rock in a backwater where there is an eddy. There they watch for a fish, and then dexterously dip it up and throw it onto the bank. Several men would set up bamboos, so to have nets ready all together, and would then arrange little fishing parties. It seemed to me that the substance of the web resisted water as readily as a duck's back. AN ARMY OF SOLDIER-CRABS On one of our expeditions along the coast we saw one of the most extraordi nary sights of all our travels-many thou sands of soldier-crabs traversing the sandy beach in detached, regularly ordered bodies, that moved evidently by the signal of some common commander. These "armed battalions" stretched for miles, and no matter what figure they assumed, whether wedge, triangle, or rhombus, the dressing, so to speak, of the outer ranks was perfect, and would have put many a volunteer corps to shame. Not a crab was out of line. The advance was fairly rapid, and was al ways toward the sea for a distance of, say, two hundred yards. When the crabs come out of their holes in the sand they throw themselves into this compact for- A Spider's Web as a Fishing-net: A Strange New Guinea Device A very huge and strong spider's web, com mon to New Guinea, is used by the natives as a fishing-net.

Use only width OR height parameter values.
September 13, 2015 marked the inauguration of the Chicago Choro Club ["CCC"]at the Musical Offering, Evanston's Community Music School. This project launched in partnership with "Choro Conversations" – the nationally/internationally syndicated choro radio documentary, which Julie Koidin is producing in cooperation with the WFMT Radio Network. (WFMT and its national/international affiliates are scheduled to broadcast the show in July 2016, shortly before the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.
The Chicago Choro Club is a "grass root" effort – a "school within a schooL" of the Musical Offering, and is autonomous, with the exception of the enrollment procedure. Classes are held every Sunday morning from 10:30 -11:30 am, following the model of choro education implemented by various choro schools throughout Brazil. Julie's main inspiration, however, is the informal and community atmosphere of the Escola Portátil in Rio de Janeiro, founded by Mauricio Carrilho and colleagues.
Classes are divided by instruments of the typical "regional" choro group – woodwinds/other solo instruments (taught by Julie); mandolin (with Don Stiernberg); pandeiro (with Heitor Garcia and Geraldo de Oliveira), and guitar/cavaquinho (taught by John Beard).
Once monthly, the CCC opens its doors to the community to participate in the traditional "roda de choro" or "choro jam session." This is a social and musical event. It's free to its participants and is on Sundays from 11:30 am – 1:00 pm.
The CCC is in its infancy and is needing funding for:
1) Community Outreach (spreading the word – in the form of public and school presentations and advertising in community and local journals);
2) As part of community outreach/spreading the word – we would like to invest in a logo and t-shirt design to give our students and to use for fundraising
3) Scholarships for low income students. (The Musical Offering is located in S.E. Evanston, and serves several Title 1 Schools: Chute Middle School, Dawes Elementary, Oakton Elementary, and Washington Elementary).
We have recently (May 2016) invested in $200 of percussion instruments and had $160 in printing expenses for flyers. We have depleted our nest egg…. and really need your help!!!
Below are the various funding levels and their benefits, all named after prominent choro composers and musicians:
The "Pixinguinha Level": For gifts between $1,000 and above, you will receive 2 complimentary tickets to 5 presentations of your choice of the Musical Offering's "Music on Madison" concert series.
The "Chiquinha Gonzaga Level": For gifts between $500 and $999, you will receive 2 complimentary tickets to 4 presentations of your choice of the Musical Offering's "Music on Madison" concert series.
The "Zequinha de Abreu Level": For gifts between $150 and $499, you will receive 2 complimentary tickets to 3 presentations of your choice of the Musical Offering's "Music on Madison" concert series.
The "Ernesto Nazareth Level": For gifts between $25 and $149, you will receive 2 complimentary tickets to 1 presentation of your choice of the Musical Offering's "Music on Madison" concert series.
We greatly appreciate your help in furthering this very worthy cultural project!!! Please visit www.chicagochoroclub.com for more information.
All checks can be made payable to the Musical Offering, a registered 501(3)(C) corporation.

Lasting performance: What worn tire tests tell us
Today, tests to check standard compliance are carried out on new tires. We decided to demonstrate that it is just as important to compare worn tires by organizing a grand testing day on May 11, 2017 at our Ladoux technology center. This is what we demonstrated.
Tests on used tires: methodology
Our tests focused on four areas of performance: braking on a dry surface, braking on a wet surface, lateral grip on a wet surface and rolling resistance which influences fuel consumption. We compared the results obtained by the same tire at different wear stages.
We also wanted to compare the most important changes in tire performance when it comes to wear. We tested premium tires and budget tires.
Dry braking: a worn tire shortens the distance
On a dry surface, the more the rubber is in contact with the road, the more efficient the braking. A worn tire with a shallower tread will therefore brake better. The question is all about proportions.
The difference in braking distance is therefore 10% shorter for a worn tire over a new tire. Which explains why racing drivers use slick tires whenever weather conditions allow!
Braking on a wet surface: unequal tires when worn
Wet braking tests with 24 different tires confirmed there is a negative change in wet braking performance when the tire is worn, from the 1st mile, and provided two major learning points:
- certain worn premium tires are capable of braking over the same distances as new budget tires.
- tires are very unequal when it comes to wear. A new tire which brakes better than others can have a much longer than average braking distance once worn. This supports the idea that it is essential to carry out tests on worn tires to enlighten customers about the choices they have.
This confirms that the braking distance on a wet surface depends more on the quality of the tire's design and manufacture than on its wear level.
Wet braking : testing 5 tires
Lateral wet grip: in line with wet braking performances
A tire does not always drive straight. However, lateral wet grip tests are rarely advertised. This is for a simple reason: it is more difficult to quantify lateral grip than braking distance. Nevertheless, all of the tests carried out have enabled us to confirm one fact: there is a direct link between wet braking performance on a wet surface and lateral wet grip.
In simpler terms, the more efficient a tire is braking on a wet surface, the better it will grip the road in the rain.
Roll resistance: the benefits of wear
As it rolls, the tire squashes a little on the road. This deformation engenders heat loss and therefore energy loss. This is what we call rolling resistance. The higher the resistance, the more energy is required to move forward, which means fuel.
Many factors contribute to rolling resistance - the rigidity of the sides, the quality of the rubber, and even the tire pressure. This resistance also reduces with wear: Less material on the tread means less energy is lost and the tire becomes more efficient.
Our tests demonstrate that a tire sees a linear fall in its rolling resistance throughout its lifetime. At its wear limit, resistance is 20% less than that of a new tire. Bearing in mind that one fifth of fuel consumption is linked to tires, this means that with a worn tire, your total consumption will be reduced by 4 to 5%.
- A worn tire brakes better on a dry surface and consumes less fuel than a new tire;
- A worn premium tire can brake better on a wet surface than a new budget tire;
- In terms of safety and saving money, it is preferable to choose a good quality tire and use it until the wear limit than choose a budget tire and replace it early.
- A new tire's performance doesn't necessarily tell its performance once worn. That's why Michelin advocates to test worn tires
