The problem with EHRs and coding
Today's political and economic environment has focused a spotlight on healthcare reform and the promotion of health information technology in particular. The Obama administration has promised to invest $10 billion per year over the next five years on HIT, including electronic health records. Senator Max Baucus, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, says HIT represents "the beginning of healthcare reform and a key part of the economic recovery."
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is also exerting increasing pressure on physicians to purchase HIT: financial incentives for using electronic prescribing through 2013 and rising penalties to practices that fail to employ this technology starting in 2012. The administration's stimulus package provides incentives for implementing and using certified EHR systems, while those practices that don't adopt these systems by 2014 will receive reductions in reimbursement.
Health policy advocates justifiably point to a myriad of potential benefits that should result from the widespread implementation of EHRs, from safe storage of health information to electronic sharing of clinical information. The knowledge shared through this access to patients' medical data promises to improve patient safety and reduce costs associated with duplicate and/or unnecessary tests and treatments. Electronic prescribing further promises to reduce medication errors, ranging from drug interactions to misinterpreted handwriting.
Most physicians who introduce EHR systems into their practices seek promised advantages for enhancing quality care and patient safety through the systems' touted data storage and retrieval characteristics. Electronic records offer immediate access to patients' documents and data.
Likewise, most physicians include among their highest priorities the goal of compliant evaluation and management (E/M) coding. Physicians believe they have a right to expect that these sophisticated and costly systems will ensure that they achieve compliant documentation and coding, thereby "making any E/M problems go away."
However, something has gone awry to create an environment that leaves well-intended physicians victimized when government audits reveal their software systems have allowed—even facilitated—submission of non-compliant and potentially fraudulent claims for E/M services. In the midst of increasing storm warnings of non-compliant designs, physicians are increasingly vulnerable to severe financial penalties.
Do some physician bloggers reveal too much?
Many blogging physicians appear to leave their ethical obligations offline.

Evergreen Earns Key 88-74 Win at C of I
CALDWELL, Idaho - Nate Menefee led four Evergreen State players in double figures with 22 points, as the Geoducks used a second half rally to stop The College of Idaho, 88-74, inside the J.A. Albertson Activities Center.
Despite the loss, the Coyotes (9-15, 5-12 CCC) clinched the final Cascade Conference Postseason Tournament berth tonight, as Southern Oregon lost at Warner Pacific. The Yotes can secure the No. 7 seed in the tournament with a win tomorrow night vs. Northwest, but a loss would send The C of I to the No. 8 position - and a first-round date at No. 2 ranked Oregon Tech.
The Yotes built a 61-55 advantage with 12:47 remaining on a Noah Gottlieb bucket, but watched as the visitors used a 24-6 run over the next nine minutes, limiting The C of I to 2-of-10 shooting (including 1-of-4 from the foul line), to complete the season sweep. Josh Troyer had nine of his 20 points in the spurt, including a jumper with four minutes left that pushed the lead to double-digits.
The Yotes jumped out quickly, bolting to a 12-3 lead on a Gottlieb trey, but the Geoducks (19-8, 12-5) battled back, as a Troyer trey capped a 9-2 run that gave Evergreen their first lead at 33-31. A Julio Feliciano triple at the first half buzzer knotted the score at 44-44 at the break.
Menefee, the NAIA's leading scorer, was 7-of-11 from the field on the night, adding four assists. Anthony Gallagher had 17 points, with Jemier Dodd chipping in with 15. Feliciano led the Geoducks with 11 rebounds.
Craig McGee had another monster night for the Yotes, scoring 18 points, with 19 rebounds - his 31st career double-double. Kelly McCarty had 13 points, with Jabari McIntosh and Kelvin Potts each scoring 11.

© Copyright 2014 Newton Citizen
COVINGTON - Republican Aaron Varner is seeking his third term in office as Board of Commissioners Chairman.Varner has encouraged voters to consider his track record over the last eight years: no millage rate increases; passage of impact fees; construction of the Newton County Administration Building; updates to the Future Land Use Map, comprehensive plan and development ordinances; opening of six new fire stations; and the hiring of more than 200 public safety employees are a few accomplishments. Water resources will continue to be a top priority in the future, Varner said, citing the ongoing expansion of the Cornish Creek Water Treatment Plant and plans to build Bear Creek Reservoir. "I think (voters) have to look at my record," he said. "Despite what you may be hearing from my opponent, we have a clear vision of where we want to go." A lifelong Newton County resident, Varner and his wife of 39 years, Anne, have two daughters, two sons-in-law and four grandchildren. A combat veteran, Varner is a member of VFW Post 2938. He serves on the boards of directors for the Northeast Georgia Regional Development Commission; Newton Roads; and DeKalb Technical College. He is a member of the Newton County Chamber of Commerce and serves on the Board of Managers for the Association County Commissioners of Georgia; the Stakeholders Advisor Committee for the Georgia Sedimentation, Erosion and Soil Control Certification Program; the GRN Community Board; the Newton County Board of Health; and is a member of the Newton County Republican Party. What in your opinion is the most pressing issue facing Newton County? Growth and its impact on transportation, water and the budget are the three biggest issues the county is facing, Varner said. Transportation continues to be a top concern for citizens. Though the county's hands are tied to a certain extent when it comes to state and federal roads, is there anything more that can be done on the local level to address this problem? The county is currently trying to maintain the existing infrastructure and several years ago began doing paving projects in-house, devoting 1 mill of taxes for funding, Varner said. So far, almost 200 miles of local roadways have been paved in-house, he said. The county is also using special purpose local option sales tax revenue for widening and resurfacing projects. Upcoming state projects include improvements to the intersection of Ga. Highways 212 and 20 and Brown Bridge Road; Ga. Highway 81 and Crowell Road; and Smith Store and Salem Road. Do you believe that the chairman should be involved in economic development? If so, what can be done in that area? Varner said the chairman should "absolutely" be involved with economic development efforts, but said commissioners must evaluate the viability of projects before investing county money. The donation of $2.5 million to Georgia Perimeter College is an example of a worthwhile investment, he said, along with the hotel/civic center/conference center project, for which $500,000 of SPLOST money has been allocated. Such projects should have a peripheral effect on the whole county in terms of providing jobs or recreational activities, Varner said. An economic development study is currently in the works to provide "a road map of what we need to do and strategies," he said. Growth is slowing, likely meaning less tax revenues will be coming in, but the cost of operations and projects are increasing. How can the county continue to provide the same level of service to citizens? Will a tax increase be necessary? "I think fortunately we've been very diligent in our budget process through the years to make sure we did not overspend and make promises on services we could not do," Varner said, pointing out that the county is required to fund certain programs by the state. "Depending on how long the economic downturn lasts, we need to look on a year-by-year basis to determine what has to be done to provide the services we have to provide and the services citizens request," he said, adding that the board continues to look at ways to do that without raising taxes. Would you support holding a liquor-by-the-drink referendum? Varner said he would support letting voters decide whether liquor-by-the-drink should be served. "All sides need to have ample opportunity to express their views on it. The Board of Commissioners needs to stay neutral on it and let the voters decide," he said.

Our bodies don't come with an extended warranty.
The good news is they can last quite a while, but keeping the parts moving smoothly, and warding off the natural effects of aging, is the owner's responsibility. Each decade of a woman's life brings forth new challenges and work-arounds to maintain the best possible health.
The overall message?
"Good nutrition and good movement and good calories and making sure people are moving, staying agile, flexible and strong," said Dr. Judi Woolger, medical director of executive medicine at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.
Exercise is a key component of living well, into the 90s and beyond.
"The teens and 20s, those are the ages that will play a big role later in life, that's when women reach their maximum bone density and that starts to taper down with age," says Dr. Luis Roca, a gynecologist with South Miami Hospital's Center for Women and Infants.
Dr. Vivian Birnbaum, internal medicine specialist at Mount Sinai Medical Center, recommends that women exercise five days a week for 30 minutes apiece with a mix of cardiovascular activities like walking, swimming, dancing or biking, along with stretching such as yoga or Pilates, and strengthening exercises of the arms, shoulders, legs and abdominals.
"And that's a minimum, ideal would be more than that," she says.
Haven't started yet? Don't fret.
"The biggest change anyone can make in life is changing from non-exercise to exercise," says cardiologist Dr. Adam Splaver, director of echocardiography for the Memorial Cardiac and Vascular Institute at Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood. "I tell my patients all the time: if you're not exercising, try once a week. You kept your appointment with me, now put an appointment on the calendar to exercise for 15 to 20 minutes, for a month. At the end of the month, put the appointment on twice. And then three times. And when you are done with that, increase the intensity.
"Crawl before you can walk, walk before you run and it's the same with exercise."
Here, then, is a guide to dancing through the decades.
The 20s
• Girl, you're a woman now: "Before 20, patients should have all of their vaccines. It's important women get the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine to prevent sexually transmitted diseases related to cancer in the uterus and cervix and vagina and genital areas," Birnbaum says.
Once sexually active, check for cervical cancer via a pap smear test every two years unless abnormalities are detected, upon which testing should be more frequent.
• Watch for the Freshman 15: ""We break our routines, some women are a lot more active in high school and athletics and get to the collegiate level and may not want to, or have the ability to, compete at the higher level and they become more sedentary,'' said Roca. "Diet becomes an issue ... a lot of women are now away from home and have to determine what they'll eat.''
Avoid processed foods, simple sugars and empty carbs, Splaver adds.
During annual check-ups have your lipid profiles checked, meaning tests for cholesterol, blood pressure. Begin performing breast self-exams.
• Forbidden fruit: If you haven't begun smoking as a teenager, don't start now. Seek counseling if using tobacco, recreational drugs or abusing alcohol.
The 30s
• Family and career: "Metabolism in the 30s is not the same as in the 20s," Roca says. "As the decades come we get more involved with our careers, and have families that need our time, and it becomes tougher to stay active. Some women fall into that pitfall where they neglect themselves and focus all of their attention on families and careers and care for everyone else and these type of things can lead to weight gain."
Women start losing bone mass in this decade. Make sure you are consuming calcium, preferably from food sources like cheese, dried herbs such as celery seed, parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme, along with sesame and flax seeds, almonds, yogurt and milk and green leafy vegetables.
Check the thyroid at annual exams.
• Dental hygiene: You already should have a routine of twice-yearly cleanings and regular dental exams. If not, begin now. The American Dental Association identifies an association between maternal periodontal disease and preterm delivery, preeclampsia and low birth weight infants. Later, periodontal disease can lead to cardiovascular disease.
The 40s
• Is it hot in here? The perimenopausal period can lead to irregularities as menopause approaches. Hot flashes, mood swings and difficulty sleeping may occur for some women.
Estrogen levels start to drop and, thus, fat storage builds around the abdomen.
"There's a rapid drop in bone density in the perimenopausal [period] because of the loss of estrogen," says Dr. Erin N. Marcus, associate professor of clinical medicine at the University of Miami. Thus, exercise becomes even more important, especially strength training to reduce the risk of osteoporosis. Work on the abdominals, too.
• Begin annual mammograms: If there is a family history of breast cancer, begin these tests in the preceding decade.
Birnbaum recommends a BRCA test to check for the gene mutation that can predispose a woman to breast or ovarian cancer if a first-degree family member (mother, sister or blood aunt) had breast or ovarian cancer.
The 50s
Have a heart-to-heart with your physician: "As women start to lose the protective effects of estrogen, they are more susceptible to heart disease in this decade and in future decades," Roca says.
"Cardiac risk starts to go up around 55," Marcus says, "and we see more women developing hypertension. Lifestyle modification for prevention is important. Maintain a normal body weight which means activity and diets rich in fruits and vegetables. Avoid sodium. If you have to use canned food, rinse the can's contents to get rid of some of the sodium."
Cardiovascular disease causes one death per minute among women in the United States, more than cancer, respiratory disease, Alzheimer's and accidents combined.
While some women get the classic symptoms such as chest pain or numbness on the left side, a pending heart attack in a woman can reveal itself through neck and back pain, nausea, and feelings of fatigue.
• Have your first colonoscopy. Depending on the results and family history, the test will be repeated every five to 10 years, more frequently if polyps are found.
• Screen for diabetes.
The 60s
• Seek balance: Women should incorporate yoga or tai chi into their fitness routines to promote balance and reduce the risk of falls.
Perform strength training exercises while standing, with good posture, says Beth Jones, program coordinator and clinical exercise physiologist at Memorial West. "Doing things while standing in your 60s and 70s helps bone density. Whether it's cardio or strength training, this helps bone density in the hips and the spine."
Include dancing as part of your cardio training, Jones adds. "It intuitively includes many side to side and turning movements that can fall to the wayside as we age.''
• Vaccinate for flu, pneumonia and shingles. Get a yearly flu shot but also consider the less-publicized shingles virus. Shingles is a painful, blistering skin rash that can strike at any age among people who have had chickenpox.
• Eat more, eat smarter: "I see so many people who attempted to lose weight by skipping meals but that's slowing metabolism in the process. Everyone can eat and train like an athlete," Jones says. "You just need to eat more frequently, trying to keep that metabolism revving and be smart with your choices.''
The 70s
• Feeling blue? Talk it over with your physician. "I always check on depression," Woolger says. "As people get older they might be living alone and getting more mood issues or sadness. I also check functional ability. Do they need help getting to the phone? Driving? Managing money?"
• Functional fitness: Check around the house to make sure you are better protected against injury, Woolger suggests. Do you need handrails in the shower? Better lighting? How's your hearing?
Water aerobics and walking against the water's resistance while waist-deep in a pool can be among the best and least injurious exercises at this age and beyond.
Rethink some tests. Discuss the continued need for mammogram screening and colonoscopy procedures with your physician if 75 and older. "The breast cancer benefit declines after 75," Birnbaum says. "Also, colonoscopy.''
The 80s and up
• Don't stop. "You have to be careful starting anything at any age, but for the 80s and up, continue activity as much as possible," Roca says.
Finally, as Jones says, "Keep striving to incorporate the healthy habits learned in earlier years to retain your quality of life."

© Copyright 2014 Gwinnett Daily Post
DULUTH - The pet store at Gwinnett Place mall was one of six Georgia stores ordered this week to stop selling dogs.More than 130 puppies in all of the state's Pet Company stores tested positive for a highly infectious parasite that can be transmitted to humans. Georgia has six Pet Company stores, more than any state outside of New York, where the company is based. Between them, the Georgia Department of Agriculture found that 138 of 151 puppies were infected with Giardia. "I am cautioning everyone, especially small children and pregnant women. If you have bought a puppy from the Pet Company since January, and you have come down with flu-like symptoms, you need to see your physician," said Tommy Irvin, commissioner of the Georgia Department of Agriculture. The Gwinnett Place pet store was one of three stores where every puppy tested positive for the parasite. The other stores that were affected are located in Southlake, Cumberland, Arbor Place, Stonecrest and Town Center malls. Officials learned of the problem after a woman from Hiram, Ga., reported that she bought a puppy for $800, then discovered it had a parasitic illness. She ended up having to spend $900 to treat it. Giardia is a highly infectious microscopic parasite that lodges in one's intestine. Symptoms include diarrhea, listlessness, stomach cramps and nausea. The inactive form of the parasite is found in contaminated water and feces and is often transmitted between dogs in kennels. The parasite can also be transmitted to humans, but there have been no reports of this so far related to the Georgia pets. Pet owners could get the parasite while bathing their dog, using a hot tub or pool after it, or cleaning up after a walk. The Department of Agriculture is continuing to investigate the situation. The puppies still in the stores have been quarantined and will be treated for the parasite using an antibiotic treatment that could take two weeks, according to Irvin. "We are still inspecting, checking records and following leads for any source of this outbreak. We are especially concerned with any outbreak that can be transferred from pets to humans," Irvin said. Calls to The Pet Company headquarters in New Windsor, N.Y., had not been returned as of press time Wednesday.

Report: Mobile home parks need helpBy STEVE ZIND
Vermont public Radio | December 16,2013MONTPELIER State officials are recommending steps to improve mobile home parks and protect them from future floods.
The recommendations are included in a report that details many of the difficulties faced by mobile home park residents in the wake of Tropical Storm Irene. Park residents comprise one-third of mobile home occupants in Vermont.
Cleanup and disposal of destroyed homes, compensation for lost property, and affordable financing to purchase new mobile homes were all urgent needs post-Irene.
But mobile home owners found they were falling through cracks of existing programs, or they discovered there werent programs designed for their situation.
In response, money was raised to pay for the disposal of flooded homes, a new loan program helps with the purchase of new ones and designs for energy efficient, resilient homes were rolled out.
The Legislature also passed a bill calling for a study of the problems Irene brought to the fore. The Report On The Viability And Disaster Resilience Of Mobile Home Ownership And Parks was released Wednesday.
Among the two dozen recommendations are some that are low cost and relatively easy to implement. For example, the study finds that few towns have provisions for mobile homes in their emergency plans.
Only 13 percent of communities currently include mobile home parks and the issues particular to mobile homes in their emergency plans and we really think that could be a big benefit to the future if theyre thought about ahead of time, says Jen Hollar, deputy commissioner of the Department of Housing and Community Development, which issued the study.
The report points out that because many mobile home owners rent lots in privately owned parks, they are both homeowners and tenants. As tenants they have little control over park conditions.
There are anecdotal reports that roads in some MHPs (mobile home parks) are consistently troublesome, the report says. Particularly those that are unpaved during mud season. Some parks have been refused mail service due to poor road conditions but no park has yet been denied emergency response due to road conditions.
The study says the state should consider requiring that park infrastructure is adequate, for example, to make sure emergency vehicles have access.
Some problems are not so easily solved. About 12 percent of homes in mobile home parks are in flood hazard areas and relocating vulnerable parks is an expensive proposition further complicated by a lack of suitable new sites.
Hollar says the state hopes to use FEMA Hazard Mitigation funds and other grant money to keep homes from being relocated in flooded areas.
Where possible were trying to pursue buyouts for those, so where they were destroyed those parks arent rebuilt and people placed back into harms way, says Hollar.
The study points out that there are FEMA programs that could have been used to better effect to help mobile home owners. It says two programs in particular went largely unknown immediately following Irene.
One, FEMAs Direct Housing Program, could help relocate a mobile home park within two months of a disaster declaration.
The study also takes a step back to look at larger issues, like the decline in the number of mobile home parks in Vermont. Since 2001, there has been a net decrease of 16 parks.
The study says one answer is the creation of more resident-owned parks and it recommends state support for that solution.
Emily Higgins, director of home ownership with Champlain Housing Trust, called the report a good analysis of the current conditions in Vermont, and says it provides some thoughtful, forward-looking recommendations for how to make manufactured home ownership more safe, equitable, attainable, and resilient in the future.

> External Gas Cylinders
The Club's Sites Committee have undertaken a review of the practice of using gas cylinders outside of units and the conclusion was that tall large external gas cylinders present an unacceptable hazard.
It was agreed that the Club will encourage the use of touring caravans and motorhomes in accordance with the recommendations of manufacturers, whereby gas cylinders are located in dedicated internal storage lockers.
Where it is necessary to keep a gas cylinder outside of a unit's locker – for example where an old caravan does not have a purpose built locker – the permitted maximum size is now limited to 15kg. The cylinder must be strapped securely to the unit and connected with a short proprietary hose in good condition and not be under any strain or vulnerable to strain.
The practice of using an external cylinder to feed into the caravan system via a barbeque outlet is not permitted irrespective of the size of cylinder.
The new restrictions apply to all Club sites and Club events such as DA meets.
There is more information on page 87 of the August 2008 issue of Camping & Caravanning.
Club Care caravan insurance policies have been designed with members in mind and offer first class cover.

We have more information on the suspicious package that shut down a Collier County neighborhood last week.
The scare happened on Friday.
Investigators say Collier mother Harriet Broder dropped the package in a trash can in front of the Mental Health Resource Center off of Golden Gate Parkway and Santa Barbara Boulevard.
She told employees she found it in her son Robert Broder's apartment and didn't know what to do with it.
Robert is a patient at the mental health center.
An employee there spotted the package and reported it.
Almost immediately emergency responders shut down the area and evacuated homes and businesses.
They even put a daycare across the street on lockdown.
The health center told investigators Robert has blown up his apartment before and likes to experiment with chemical explosives--that's why they took the situation so seriously.
Sheriff's officials closed the case without any arrests or charges.
They say nobody intentionally meant to cause any harm.
Posted Earlier
The Collier County Sheriff's Office is investigating a suspicious package at the Mental Health Resource Center located in the 5000 block of Golden Gate Parkway.
Deputies have closed both east & westbound Golden Gate Pkwy from Santa Barbara Blvd to 52nd Terrace SW.
Collier County Sheriff's officials are calling it a 'possibly explosive package.'
Authorities say an employee in the Park East Plaza found the suspicious package on the sidewalk.
When deputies arrived, their immediate investigations lead them to believe the package could possibly be explosive.
Investigators evacuated the entire plaza. The businesses across the street in the closed off part of the road are on lockdown, including a daycare.
Deputies say they are working to get in touch with parents to brief them on the situation.
Investigators won't say what it is about the package that makes it suspicious.
A HAZMAT team and bomb squad is on scene along with firefighters.
The Collier County Sheriff's Office says the bomb squad has made contact with the package and is working to find out if it is dangerous.

Ash Wednesday planning ideas
GRACE member Terry sent an e-mail to the rest of the gang soliciting Ash Wednesday service ideas. Several in the group shared ways their churches have observed Ash Wednesday services in the past. But I enjoyed the response from GRACE member Pat who not only offered some pretty nifty ideas, but a funny story to boot. Here is Pat's response with ideas for Ash Wednesday services:
Originally, they used to make the ashes by burning the dried palms that were left from last year's Palm Sunday, but I don't recommend that. The new pastor at Epiphany insisted on doing it for a morning Ash Wednesday service without a practice run. We had a church full of little kids from St.Edward/Epiphany school and a lot little old ladies. He put a huge pile of dried palms into a turkey roasting pan and put a match to it. Black, greasy smoke instantly filled the entire church and he had forgotten to put a fire extinguisher nearby. The kids were hacking and making noises as kids do and the little old ladies were cranking up their oxygen tanks, while the choir got so choked up that they couldn't sing for the evening service. I was busy looking for a camera to record the sacred moment. At the end of the service, the pastor discovered that the Fire Marshal had attended, and they several words in private after the event. I'm sure all of you have had days like this. If you can find a way to burn the palms on a tiny scale, it does create a nice symbolic effect, but the resulting ashes are greasy and not very good for blessing people. I've known folks to burn a single palm branch and then quietly swap out those ashes for a pack of ashes purchased from Religious Goods bookstore on Belmont St. in Carytown. But then, I guess you guys don't do palms on Palm Sunday either.
On Ash Wednesday, we usually use the liturgy to set the entire theme for Lent, and we give away an item that the participants take home with them.
One year when we used a Potters' theme, we gave everyone a small wrapped ball of clay and invited them to create something with it during Lent and return it on Holy Thursday during the offering of gifts.
One year, we gave everyone a 2" square of burlap with a black cross etched on it and a safety pin attached. We invited everyone to wear it or carry it on their person throughout Lent to remind them of their scriptural call to practice prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.
One year we gave everyone a nail that they were to reflect and pray with through Lent. They brought them back on Good Friday and nailed them to a cross in silence as they entered the church. As everyone waited for the Good Friday service to begin, you could hear the hammering in the background.
One year, we gave them a walnut sized rock to carry around all during Lent as they reflected on the burden of their sinfulness. On Good Friday, when they brought the rocks back, they found a sledge hammer at the door of church. They were invited to use the hammer to smash their rocks as a beginning of the celebration of Jesus destroying our sins by his death on the cross. (the kids loved it). The loud banging that replaced the typical prelude music set a very profound mood to the service.
You can also do some nice things with the service music. The best I've seen is to replace the opening hymn with tolling chant. A single cantor carries one of the larger handbells and, starting from the back of the worship space, begins to toll the single bell about once every 30 seconds as he/she processes in. After tolling several times, the cantor begins a simple, one-line chant in a minor key, such as a Kyrie, a "Lord Have Mercy" or any penitential chant from Taize, etc. that the cantor leads and the congregation echoes. So the only music is this single tolling bell and the echoing chant.
A lot of Catholic churches end the Ash Wednesday service and all the Lenten Sunday services with complete silence instead of a closing hymn. They are reminded that the service is not the end of their worship, that their worship should continue throughout the week by transforming their prayer into practice.
In New Orleans, where I come from, the entire city thinks Ash Wednesday is a major Holy Day because it is the day after all the excesses of Mardi Gras and school is still out. On Ash Wednesday, everyone is Catholic for a day, and goes to the nearest church to "get their ashes" and re-establish their priorities after the previous days of excess. The interesting part was the issue of what to do with the Ashes on your forehead after the service. Some folks wear them as a badge of honor (the local newscasters display ashed foreheads on the evening news), while others worry about risking the fires of hell if they wash them off before returning to work. Each year, churchgoers all over the city face a major moral crisis when they try to decide if they will publicly proclaim their faith by displaying their ashes throughout the day, or wash them off to blend in with the unchurched of the world. That moral dilemma alone has been the basis for many Ash Wednesday sermons.

Loved the funny story! Oh, boy! I love Easter Vigil, but it always makes me bit nervous when we have all those tapers lit through out the church- hope the fire marshall doesn't see us then! Now, we could go get a ton of those battery -operated votives…NAW!
Great ideas to do at the beginning of Lent! I'm passing them on the the Liturgy Committee
where i work as a Music Director- i'm finding gems in gather Comp2 and OCP's Spirit and Song Books 1 & 2 – We are using Matt Maher's Kyrie this year. We are also singing the Prayer of the Faithful and I thought to use the last line of Becker's Litany of the Saints as our response "Christ hear us, Lord Jesus Hear our prayer" Nice to be able to utilize that piece more!
Have a good Journey this Lent!

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Bloomberg LP appointed former IBM Chairman and CEO Samuel Palmisano as an independent adviser on security and data issues, as the company seeks to address customers' concerns about possible breaches in the confidentiality of their usage data.
The news and financial data company said on Friday that Palmisano will report to its board of directors and he will immediately undertake a review of current policies for client data and end-user information.
Bloomberg said last week that its reporters had limited access to some data considered proprietary, including when a customer logs in or looks for information on assets such as equities or bonds. Bloomberg News Editor-in-Chief Matthew Winkler apologized after a major client, Goldman Sachs Group
Since then, other Bloomberg clients, including JPMorgan Chase & Co
The appointment of Palmisano comes after Bloomberg named a chief data compliance officer last week.
"We want to go even further and get the benefit of independent leading experts so that we set the new standard for privacy and data security," Daniel Doctoroff, Bloomberg's CEO and president, said in a statement.
Palmisano was IBM's
Bloomberg said its board has also hired the law firm Hogan Lovells and the financial services consulting firm Promontory Financial Group to help Palmisano implement any recommendations.
The company also asked Clark Hoyt, editor-at-large at Bloomberg News, to conduct a review of the newsroom's relationship with the sales organization. Hoyt, who served as the New York Times's

EOLv2 review by Rod Page at iPhylo
The Encyclopedia of Life (EOL) has been relaunched, with a new look and much social media funkiness. I've been something of an EOL sceptic, but looking at the new site I think I can see what EOL is for. Ironically, it's not really about E. O. Wilson's original vision (doi:10.1016/S0169-5347(02)00040-X)
— Rod Page, 9/14/11
- Rod has been a member of the extended EOL family since the project began back in 2007, and we pay close attention to what he has to say, even when he's being a sceptic. Actually, especially when he's being a sceptic.
- Achieving what Dr. Wilson called for in his 2002 article and 2007 TED Wish speech is still very much in our sights. Getting there will be a journey of many steps and multiple releases. With this recent release, our design goal was to build a product that was dramatically more engaging, accessible and personal than the prior version - in part because that's what the majority of our users were asking for, but also because those are prerequisites to some of the requirements that Rod would like to see us address. I won't go much further than that because I'm not a believer in making roadmap promises before they've been fully vetted and approved.
- My colleague Dr. Cyndy Parr, director of the EOL group responsible for acquiring content, wrote a very thoughtful response to Rod that you can read in the comments associated with his article (link below).
- He's right in saying that we're still working to get the social elements of the new site tuned. We're especially focused on how comments get propagated, how collections are managed and shared, and how users can find what they want in all of those. And yes, we're even looking at various social media integration points, including OAuth integration. So there's plenty of room for progress. But… I think we nailed the core mechanic of EOL Collections, which we had to do in order to launch.

Actress Minka Kelly became a Los Angeles nurse so she could pay her bills while she was chasing her modeling dreams. The caring star didn't want to waste time waiting tables while she went for talent auditions and so she spent a year working at a hospital.
She says, "I was a receptionist at this doctor's office and I became friends with this scrub nurse there because I was fascinated by the surgery and I wasn't squeamish. I got fired from that job... and I learned that going to school to be a scrub nurse was just over a year."
"I became a surgical technician, a scrub nurse... I worked a six-month externship at California Hospital."

|Little town on the prairie
by Wilder, Laura Ingalls, 1867-1957
Reading this to my daughter. Great reflection of life in the midwest in the 1880's. posted May 8, 2009 at 8:20AM
|The long winter
by Wilder, Laura Ingalls, 1867-1957
I am reading this to my daughter each night before she goes to bed. Times were so different and to see how self-reliant people were over 100 years ago it is amazing. Such a stark contrast to see how people have "progressed" into a very different people that expect entitlements never even imagined in Laura's days. posted Feb 8, 2009 at 1:49PM

On June 4, 1968, a dream was born and destroyed. On that fateful day, Senator Robert F. Kennedy won two presidential primaries. His hard-fought triumphs set in motion events that encompassed love, lust, political optimism, racism and the Kennedy-inspired dream of a more just and equitable society. The outcome of his planned victory rally at the Ambassador Hotel, Los Angeles, is well known, and the world watched in stunned silence as Kennedy's promising vision of social change was cut short by unspeakable violence in a basement hallway. Emilio Estevez presents politicians, journalists, hotel staff and ordinary hotel guests as they witness this fateful night, all representing segments of a wounded and divided country that was changed forever. Bobby features stunning performances from the likes of Anthony Hopkins, Harry Belafonte and Nick Cannon, among others, and asks if Kennedy's dream of a more equitable and stable world lives on today. It ends with a piece of brilliant oratory from Kennedy, which embodies the spirit of DIFF's cultural bridge.

ONALASKA, Wis (WSAU-Wheeler News) Parts of Wisconsin were hit with more hail and torrential rains yesterday. Baseball-sized hail fell in Onalaska, just north of La Crosse. The National Weather Service said a large tree trunk split and fell onto a mini-van in Onalaska. Nearby Stueben had an-inch-and-quarter of rain. So did Gile in Iron County, where an inch fell in less than a half-hour early last evening. Gile also reported quarter-sized hail. Small hail also came down in Marshfield and Auburndale.
The Weather Service blamed it all on a low-pressure system moving into western Lake Superior. A cold front is expected to drag eastward through the Upper Midwest today, with more rain possible. A dense fog advisory is in effect until noon along Lake Superior in Douglas, Bayfield, Ashland, and Iron counties.
Cloudy skies and below-normal temperatures are expected for the weekend. Highs for tomorrow might not reach 60 in parts of northern Wisconsin. The 70's are not expected to return until Monday.

Annnnnnd…here we go! Audition Schedule:
Headshots, check. Resumes, check. Monologue, check. Sheet music, check. Wowing the casting directors and getting some awesome callbacks…not quite sure of how that will go just yet, but I like to accentuate the positive. ;) As I said in my earlier post, I'm looking to gain audition experience, and even if I'm not hired (because these are highly competitive, professional auditions), I will walk away with newfound knowledge and better audition techniques. Hoping for the best!

5 Tips for Vegetarian Menu Planning
After working for a few years as a personal chef, the most important skill I learned from the job wasn't how to wield my knife like a pro or how to cook super fancy, it was the ability to plan a menu for the week ahead. Do you plan your meals in advance? If so, what does this look like for you?
Every weekend, I think about what's coming next on the calendar and try to get a grip on our food situation. Usually I grocery shop over the weekend as well as make a ritual trip to the farmer's market. At my cheffing job, I wasn't given much freedom to cook creatively, but I did rely on seasonal produce to lead the way, as I do now.
I learned a lot cooking day in and day out; here are some tips I still implement in my home cooking/planning routine.
5 Tips for Vegetarian Menu Planning
• Include mostly tried and true favorite dishes on your menu for the week — for us that's enchiladas, egg dishes and tons of green salads — but then branch out and try something new one of the days. I tear out or bookmark easy recipes that feature favorite ingredients and make an effort to create one new dish per week. Everyone gets in a cooking rut, and this makes for a more lively way of eating.
• Wash and bag a half week's worth of lettuce right when you get home from the grocery store. This was one of my more loathed duties while cooking for someone else, but now that I do it at home, I love the chore because it means my husband and I will be eating greenery with every dinner. It's very simple but very effective way of getting dinner on the table faster each night.
• Make a pot of beans or brown rice once per week. I usually use grains or beans as a canvas for new and exciting fresh herbs, precious oils and vinegars and lots of tasting salts and fresh ground pepper. Tonight I dressed brown rice with a balsamic vinaigrette and tossed in fresh peas, walnuts, apple chunks, dried cherries and shallots. It was delicious and we'll eat this rice for lunch and dinner throughout the week. It also gets even better after sitting in the fridge for a few days.
• Chop up fresh fruits you like. Having fresh fruit prepared really makes me want to eat fruit as a snack. With a dollop of yogurt and topped with shredded coconut, I can have a tropical fruit party every afternoon with a cup of tea. It is such a luxurious treat to open the fridge and have glistening, washed berries, cubed mango chunks and watermelon wedges just begging to be eaten.
• Go to a grocery store you enjoy. My favorite grocery serves an array of samples, has fresh coffee in little cups and lets you try anything from the bulk bins. They also have a beautiful selection of organic produce. For me, shopping for food here is such a pleasure, I look forward to going. With all the freebies and stunning flower section; it's a sensory experience, hardly a chore. And for buying organic, it's the same price as the so-so chain grocery down the street. It costs the same, so why not enjoy?
Do you have any favorite, frequently-followed tips for getting a better set of meals on the table each week?

I keep a running list of items in my pantry (beans, pasta, canned goods, etc). Then on Saturdays, I go to the farm market. I pick what looks freshest, what inspires me, and I try to get one new item that I haven't tried or am not sure what to do with.
Then when I get home, I look at my pantry list and the items from the market, and create a menu around what I have. The next day I go to a regular grocery store to fill in any gaps as needed. This system really, REALLY keeps our grocery bills down, but I still eat high-quality food.
I definitely meal-plan and do one big grocery store trip once a week. It's just me and my spouse in our house, so I plan for three four-serving meals per week. That seems to give us enough leftovers to make a soup one night and typically we get pizza or takeout another night.
I like the tip about trying one new, fun recipe per week!
And I cannot agree more with the bit about going to a grocery store you love. I used to loathe grocery shopping, but now that I shop at a smaller, cheaper store with less selection (Aldi), it has cut way down on my stress and time spent at the store.
I plan out most of the week before I (or my boyfriend) goes shopping. I usually write out the days and anything scheduled so we know who can cook, who needs to be somewhere at a specific time ect. Then I usually get most of my recipes from a running google doc full of links of things I find online. I add words under the links so a quick ctrl + F and I can scroll through all the things tagged 'spring,' 'quick,' or 'protein' among other words like specific ingredients that I know are in season. Then if I get to the store and something particular that catches my eye (like rhubarb yesterday) I'll grab that to throw in something later or to make a strawberry rhubarb crumble that night.
It's funny - planning out the week's meals is something my mom did, and something I'll never feel old enough and responsible enough to do, despite the fact that I'm a mom (and 42!) I let the produce be my guide. I freakin love the produce section of any grocery store. I'll buy what looks good and is in season, I'll buy certain staples like beans, nuts, and grains. Then I'll go day by day, thinking about which veg should be used first, and new ways to fix it. At the risk of sounding a little crazy - when I can't sleep I'll lie in bed thinking about the vegetables in the fridge, and deciding ways to prepare them.
lol just noticed the hangul on your notepaper. nice!
claireooto, you and I must be sisters! I always pick up some of whatever veg is in season and cheap that week and plan meals around it. I keep reading that meal planning is the way to eat cheaply, but I don't really see that; I keep a well-stocked pantry, then supplement with what's in season. And since I belong to a CSA, I also have to plan meals around that, and what's in the box always differs a bit from what they predict will be there.
Oh, and I think about what to do with what's in the fridge when I can't sleep, too. :)
i usually scope out weekly specials from four or five grocery stores that i like in my area. i've found most supermarkets these days post the specials online, so between wednesday and friday when the sales change over i try to make a well-planned list. this might seem like a pain, but it really ends up saving a lot of time and money once i'm in the store; i already know exactly what to look for, plus i can try to figure out ways to incorporate ingredients into meals before i've even made a trip to the store. i will say that i live in brooklyn, so it's fairly easy to hit up a variety of different grocery stores if i need or want to, but even when i go back to virginia to my mom's (supermarkets few and far between) i still do this kind of online planning. i think the key is to have your standard list staples (beans, eggs, bread, dairy, etc.), but to be flexible when it comes to things like produce.
When I was a kid my parents would just buy random stuff that looked good at the time and think about a meal later. That left a lot of perishable items knocking on expiration's door. It always seemed to me like a waste of food since we had to throw out stuff that didn't get used.
Now that I'm an adult, I plan carefully. I shop once a week and only buy the food I will need for that week's meals + some pre-planned snacks. We usually cook 6-7 meals a week that serve 4 so we can have lunch the next day.
My bf and I have a small kitchen so we only have a mini fridge. It's actually worked out for us because we buy only what we will actually eat. It's been good for the wallet and waist line. I usually look at the circular and plan meals around the produce that is on sale. We sometimes get a CSA box and forego the grocery store. So those weeks are planned around the CSA produce plus whatever is in our pantry.
But we do allocate one day a week to eat out. Every couple needs a standing date night!
I've had to revamp my system when I had a kid, and revamp it again when the kid got old enough to have opinions and make requests. (And whisk the eggs and dump things in a bowl and otherwise "help.") I used to be quite experimental and try new things all the time, but now I really have to get dinner on the table on time, and my innovations are less appreciated than the family standbys. I use a template that I switch around seasonally for the days of week. It's basically Monday/pasta, Tuesday/soup (sandwiches or salad as it gets warmer), Wednesday is husband's problem, Thursday/beans, Friday is husband again, then 2 weekend brunches and more labor intensive foods, like risotto. And that's when I bake.
Boring, effective.
I plan my week out. Even with planning I wind up with unused food as often things like unexpected dinners out with friends pop up. There's been a lot of saturday lunches consisting of "this vegetable is about to go bad" soup.
I might be the world's worst meal planner. It's something about the sticker shock of buying a week's worth of food in one go [too many years as a broke college kid, maybe].
However, I always have bananas and peanut butter, as well as something to put them on. That's planning, right?
STH - it's nice to know I'm not alone in that! I feel slightly less crazy now.
We belong to a CSA, too. It's seasonal, and it hasn't started yet. Any week now!! I can't wait.
I find it easier to shop every day, and cook according to what is fresh/seasonal/on offer or to satisfy a sudden craving for a particular food. I find that this allows for greater variety in our meals. We don't tend to plan social activities either, and often find ourselves doing things last minute so it's easier not to be tied to a rigid meal plan.

LA CROSSE, WI (WTAQ) - La Crosse area police said they were chasing a stolen car overnight when it crashed, killing one person.
It started just after 1 a.m., when a police officer in downtown La Crosse tried pulling over a car that was reported stolen.
A chase went north on Highway 35 into Holmen. Officials said the car struck the rear of another vehicle, and then overturned near a freeway interchange at Highway 53.
WKBT-TV in La Crosse said the person killed was not from that area -- and one of the two injured crash victims had life-threatening injuries. Holmen Police Chief Michael McHugh told the TV station that the stolen vehicle went up an off-road slope and rolled over, then slid down.
La Crosse and Holmen police are both investigating, and the State Patrol was asked to reconstruct the crash scene.
Both lanes of Highway 35 were re-opened around 6:30, in time for the morning work traffic.
