Merry Christmas and Happy Boxing Day (For my readers in Canada).
I've chosen two songs for today both in the spirit of Christmas. The first one is by none other than Bruce Springsteen, as you know my favorite musician.
This first song is called "Christmas" (Baby Please Come Home). Taken from a performance in December 2003 with a bunch of his friends, this song will certainly deliver the meaning and spiriit of Christmas is a very Bruce Springsteen sort of way.
My second tune is by John Lennon. A classic tune called Happy Xmas/The War is Over. This is one of my all time favorites. Enjoy the video montage as well.
Thanks for listening.
Enjoy the weekend.

What if the military still controlled the internet?
Posted on 16 Mar 2013 at 13:25
Darien Graham-Smith imagines what would have happened if the military had retained control of the internet
The army always keeps the good stuff for itself. Of course it does: if you give the general public access to a satellite-based positioning and targeting system, for example, that means the enemy will have it too, and then bang goes your advantage.
All the same, we at PC Pro think it's time the Arpanet – the "network" of computers that connects military bases to each other, and to carefully vetted international research facilities, universities and so on – was opened up to public use.
If you're not familiar with the Arpanet, think of it as similar to the phone network, only with no need to dial: every computer on the Arpanet is constantly connected to every other computer, and any two computers can exchange data without disturbing the others using the connection.
It sounds like science fiction, but unredacted papers from the Lincoln Laboratory archives in Massachusetts clearly indicate this is how the Arpanet works.
What if......Apple had gone bankrupt?
You might ask why we need a network such as this. As things stand, it's easy enough to move files from one system to another using a flash drive. But the Arpanet isn't only about moving documents back and forth; indeed, it can also be used for direct, real-time communications across any distance.
In a closed demonstration at a secret location last year, members of the PC Pro team saw how Arpanet techniques can be used to transmit any amount of text instantly from one computer to another over a simple length of copper telephone wire.
This technology isn't complicated or expensive: the only reason the capability isn't widely used today is the military prohibition on its supply and implementation.
You can understand why the authorities are reluctant to open up the Arpanet. Back in the 1970s, when arms limitation talks had collapsed and the US was drawing up plans for its first full-scale confrontation with Soviet forces, the Arpanet was seen as a key strategic weapon – a system that could be used to convey intelligence and orders instantly and securely between military emplacements.
Glad in was American
Luckily for us, Arpanet was American.
If it had been a British invention, it would still be shrouded in secrecy by the Official Secrets Act.
Like the World's First electronic computer. The computer mouse. Public Key encryption. etc etc etc.
All done in UK first. All buried by the MoD in the interests of "National Security".
Although it would have been interestng to see what would have happened if the internet hadn't reached "critical mass" before 9/11...

Just the wrong kind.

Stuck in a loop
@Penfolduk01 on 16 Mar 2013
Your keyboard seems to be stuck as you have posted your comment twice.
as for 9/11 it was a non-event and an excuse for the US to invade innocent countries and start its never-ending war against "terrorism".
Consider it World War∞ (WW-infinite).
By smartermind on 17 Mar 2013
So true
"Consider it World War∞ (WW-infinite)."
After the cold war ended the superpowers had lost their reasons to mistrust other nations, and snoop/invade them.
Osama Bin Laden & 9/11 was way too convenient for it to have been unforseen. So soon after George 'Dubya' Bush/Republicans got into the Whitehouse.
By technogeist on 17 Mar 2013
@ smartermind
"as for 9/11 it was a non-event"
Except for the friends and relatives of those caught up in it. It was most definitely an event of some magnitude for them.
But please, don't let me spoil the view from up on your high horse...
By bioreit on 18 Mar 2013
A bit of compassion please....
9/11 was categorically NOT a "non-event". I watched much of it unfold in real-time. It was almost unutterably shocking.
The people who died horribly that day weren't representatives of the USA, they weren't soldiers who'd signed up for the risk, they were people going about their legitimate business.
No matter what your view of US Foreign Policy and\or the stupidity\greed\incompetence of that nation's leadership it was an horrific attack that changed and destroyed the lives of many thousands of innocent people.
By wittgenfrog on 18 Mar 2013
What next
Dear Mr Graham-Smith, thank you for your article. I too think it would be great if Arpanet was opened up to the public.
I think your view that my "in-tray" could be "filled with newsletters" is a a point well made.
My concern is that if we open the flood gates we could get a massive increase in the information we can access but that without organising the data it just becomes a chaotic mess.
Before the floodgates open, can we have a team of respected academics decide how the data will be organised - along the lines of the dewey decimal system. That way any knowledge that is released can be built upon in a coherent and cohesive fashion.

Oakwood Shores 2.0 isn't simply an upgrade of the initial gated lakefront community that took major nosedive during the collapse of the housing bubble.
Warmer temperatures, green grass and increased daylight help shake off the winter blues and inspire home and yard improvements to spruce up your surroundings.
Beat the winter blues by taking the first steps to create a summer backyard oasis. By preparing now, you'll be ready to install - and enjoy - a dream deck once warmer weather arrives.
Every garden is filled with them: millions of unseen weeds. They are dormant seeds that lurk just below the soil surface, ready to spring to life with just the briefest exposure to light. Weeds can choke a garden, robbing it of space, nutrients and water. Allowing weeds to mature compounds the problem, as they are naturally prolific seed producers. They grow aggressively and can be tough to get rid of, because pulling weeds brings more weed seeds to the surface.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - The U.S. housing market will begin to mount a turnaround this year, building toward a solid recovery in 2013, according to a forecast issued Wednesday by the chief economist of a homebuilding industry trade group.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage stayed at a record low this week, providing some added incentive for those looking to buy a home or refinance.
DEAR BENNY: We are getting ready to close on a home and there is a settlement fee of $685 for lender's title insurance and $683 for owner's title insurance. Must we pay both fees? --Phyllis
WASHINGTON (AP) - The mortgage settlement that government officials announced Thursday is intended to help victims of foreclosure abuses that followed the housing bust.
Dreaming about a bathroom remodel? With today's easy-to-install products - many of which are also easy-to-clean - your new bathroom can actually exceed your wildest dreams. What could be better than an easy-to-clean new bathroom?
Homeowners often worry about keeping their homes safe and secure for their families. And it's no wonder: nearly 70 percent of home break-ins are in the form of kick-ins to a door, according to the U. S. Department of Justice.
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. home prices fell for a third straight month in nearly all cities tracked by a major index. The declines show that most homeowners are not reaping the benefits from some signs of an improving housing market.
FALLS CHURCH, Va. (AP) - Conceding his earlier housing programs have fallen short, President Barack Obama on Wednesday proposed a vast expansion of government assistance to homeowners, aiming to make lower lending rates a possibility for millions of borrowers who have not been able to get out from under burdensome mortgages.
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. home prices fell for a third straight month in nearly all cities tracked by a major index. The declines show that most homeowners are not reaping the benefits from some signs of an improving housing market.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Builders increased their spending in December for the fifth consecutive month, ending a weak construction year on a hopeful note.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage fell this week to a record low, the ninth time that has happened in the last year. Even with the cheapest rates in history, the housing market remains depressed.
WASHINGTON (AP) - More Americans signed contracts to buy homes in July, a sign that buying has improved as mortgage rates have slipped, the number of listings has risen and the rate of price increases has slowed.
Organizing the garage may be one of the most feared tasks in household history. According to a recent Gladiator GarageWorks survey, nearly three out of four households can only park one car in their two-car garage, illustrating the need for a serious garage intervention.
WASHINGTON (AP) - The average 30-year U.S. mortgage rate remained at a 52-week low of 4.10 this week.
WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. home prices increased at a slower pace in June - a cooldown that could continue for several more months.
Add quality and comfort to your favorite rooms
The under $230,000 market when it comes to nicer resale homes is almost history once again in Manteca.
Small yards, city dwelling or soil that's sandy, rocky or full of clay - it seems no obstacles can keep Americans from the joys of gardening. More than 78 million U.S. households grow gardens, according to the Garden Writers Association Foundation, and many of them don't have optimal conditions to plant their gardens in the ground. When space constraints or soil conditions make traditional gardens impossible or inconvenient, gardeners turn to raised beds and planter boxes to grow the vegetables, herbs and flowers they crave.
Remember when brass fixtures and mauve countertops were all the rage in kitchen design? How about the days of shag carpet (yes, in the bathroom) and avocado tile? Fortunately, those particular trends have come and gone. And, whether you embraced them or not, they did have an influence on the space you live in right now. Take a look through the decades to see how decor styles have evolved into the modern kitchens and bathrooms of today.
Home improvement season is in full swing, and homeowners across the country are deciding which projects to tackle this year. By taking a strategic approach to selecting home improvements, you can go beyond adding value to your property - you can also boost your comfort and safety as well.
WASHINGTON (AP) - A fourth straight monthly increase in sales of existing homes provided the latest evidence Thursday that the U.S. housing market is rebounding from a weak start to the year.
The United States is a country of renovators and remodelers, judging from the steady growth of home improvement projects across the nation in recent years.
WASHINGTON (AP) - Average long-term U.S. mortgage rates declined this week, with the 30-year loan rate hitting its 52-week low.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Fewer U.S. homeowners are falling behind on their mortgage payments, a trend that has reduced the late-payment rate on home loans to the lowest level in six years, according to credit reporting agency TransUnion.
With autumn just a few short weeks away, many people will soon spend less time on the patio and more time within four walls. Actually, five walls if you include the ceiling.

Turn off the electricity to the pump motor at the breaker box.
How to Repair a Pool Pump Seal
Your swimming pool pump has a seal to prevent leaks, which can destroy the electric motor on the pump. When the seal wears out and starts to leak, you must replace it. Since the seal components are similar on most pool pumps, the replacement process is relatively simple and doesn't vary much from pool to pool.
Things You'll Need
- Wrench
- Impeller wrench
- Cloth
- Lubricant
- Pump seal
- Gasket
Remove the bolts holding the two pump halves together and pull the motor and bracket away from the volute to expose the impeller (a volute is a curved funnel increasing in area to the discharge port). Remove the old gasket between the two pump halves.
Hold the motor shaft so that it does not turn while you unscrew the impeller, using an impeller wrench.
Remove the bolts holding the bracket on the motor, using a wrench, and separate the bracket away from the motor.
Remove each half of the old seal and clean the seal plate and impeller, using the cloth and water.
Apply lubricant to the seal plate and install each half of the new seal, being careful not to touch the face of the seal with anything dirty or greasy.
Reassemble the bracket and motor and replace the impeller. Place a new gasket between the pump halves and reassemble. Tighten bolts evenly.
Turn the electricity back on to the motor and check for leaks by letting the pump run for several minutes.
- 1
Tips & Warnings
- Note the position of the old seal on the seal plate and impeller and install the new seal in the same way.
- Use non-hardening silicone lubricant. Lubricants made of petroleum eat away plastic parts.

OAKBROOK TERRACE, Ill., July 7 /PRNewswire/ -- With rising health care and insurance costs, it's no surprise thousands of small business owners are left in the dark when it comes to providing insurance for themselves, family members and employees. A 2008 National Small Business Association survey reported 62% of small businesses cannot afford health insurance for their employees. Without access to quality and affordable health care, small businesses are unable to compete with larger corporations. "Affordable health care is not only a top concern of small business owners, but for every American during these tough economic times," says Jim Tracy, president of America's Best Companies - a national small business organization dedicated to helping business owners better compete.
America's Best Companies' latest effort has been to partner with Careington International to provide its small business members, and their employees, access to discounted health care options. "Careington International provides an exceptional health care alternative to cut costs for the small business owner, as well as their families and employees. I am excited to offer our members an affordable option to help keep their small businesses thriving," says Jim. "These low-cost plans are the perfect solution for small businesses struggling for ways to cut costs." The Careington discount health plans offered through America's Best Companies can save business owners and their employees thousands of dollars per year.
"We are excited that America's Best Companies has selected Careington to help business owners save on their health care needs," said Chuck Misasi, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Careington International Corporation. "Through our enhanced discount medical plan, members will save on their medical expenses, in addition to substantial savings on other health care services such as dental, vision, and prescr

Project Manager
Project Manager Jobs
Project Manager Overview
A project manager is responsible for overseeing the completion of a project, and they will typically be involved with every step of the process from hiring to construction. Project managers can work in any number of fields, and their projects can range from developing a new gated community to releasing a new type of music player device. However, the overwhelming majority of project managers are involved with construction, and their projects tend to be commercial in nature. Just a sample of the average project manager tasks could include hiring new employees, getting approval from the country for construction to begin, creating a timeline for the project and acting as a liaison between staff, managers, suppliers and the community.
Project Manager Educational Requirements
It is incredibly rare to secure a position as a project manager without a bachelor's degree. While there are some entry-level positions accepting applicants with just a two-year associate degree, those are generally the exception to the rule. The most successful project managers will major in subjects like construction science, project management, construction engineering or building science in order to sufficiently prepare for their careers. It may also be beneficial for project managers to earn certifications such as the Certified Construction Manager designation from the Construction Management Association of America or the Certified Professional Constructor designation from the American Institute of Constructors.
Project Manager Job Market
Statistics predict that between 2012 and 2022, the job market for project managers in the United States will grow by an impressive 16 percent, which is above average for careers in the country. This increase will translate to more than 80,000 additional project managers jobs over the next decade as well as countless similar positions like that of project administrator, project assurance specialist and release manager.
Project Manager Salary
In 2012, the average median salary for a project manager was $82,790. The highest salaries in the industry tend to go to project managers who are employed in civil engineering firms while the lowest salaries tend to be for specialty trade contractors or nonprofit project managers.

Observe penguins in the Falkland Islands
South American Destinations
The Falkland Islands, a territory of the United Kingdom, are the perfect place for those on a South American cruise to experience stunning natural scenery as well as the island's renowned bird and marine life.
Fans of animals will definitely fall in love with these small islands, as they boast one of the few non-Arctic environments where one can see penguins in their natural habitat. The best place to view these cute birds is in one of the many penguin colonies on the island.
You'll have several to choose from, but it helps knowing which species you'll be viewing. Gentoo penguins can be thought of as the more traditional of the two species - the black-and-white tuxedo penguins. Rockhopper penguins are immediately distinguishable by their bright yellow arched eyebrows - a feature that tends to be a hit with kids. You may also get to see Magellan or King penguins.
These colonies are officially recognized as nature preserves, and penguins are far from the only attraction. Many also feature sea lions, albatross and even dolphins. If you end up going to Bluff Cove, you'll also have the chance to tour a small museum that will explain the way of life in the Falklands.
After you've had your introduction to penguins, head back to the main port of Stanley. Take a quick tour of this small city and see some of the highlights, such as the Whalebone Arch and beautiful Christ Church Cathedral.
If you're looking to learn more about the history of the Falklands, head to the Britannia Museum. The entire history of the Falklands is covered here, but special attention is paid to the 1982 Falkland Wars, when the U.K. went into battle against Argentina after the two nations disputed control of the islands.

Every year exposure to hazardous substances at work affects the health of many thousands of people. Common examples include:
Lung disease (e.g. through working in dusty conditions),
Skin irritation,
Dermatitis or skin cancer (e.g. from frequent contact with oils or corrosive liquids),
The development of other occupational cancers (e.g. from exposure to toxic fumes),
Occupational asthma (e.g. from sensitisation to isocyanates in paints or adhesives).
The high costs of ill-health arise from a number of causes, including loss of earnings, loss of productivity, prosecution and civil action, among others.
For further advice and guidance please contact us.
Under the Planning (Hazardous Substances) Act 1990 if a site contains a hazardous substance on over or under land above a specified quantity (known as the controlled quantity) then it is necessary to obtain consent from the hazardous substances authority.
Dudley Council maintain a Register of Hazardous Substances Consents.
A public Prosecutions Register is maintained detailing details of prosecutions and formal cautions issued in the last three years, in accordance with the Environment and Safety Information Act 1988.
Hazardous materials that are not normally collected by the refuse collection service can be taken to the council's Household waste recycling centre for disposal.
Further advice for the disposal of hazardous waste.
Control of Substances Hazardous to Health ( COSHH) is the law that requires employers to control substances that are hazardous to health. You can prevent or reduce workers exposure to hazardous substances.
Any site which needs to use or store hazardous substances such as chlorine, hydrogen, or natural gas, at or above certain thresholds, requires a hazardous substances consent before it can operate.
Hazardous Substances Consent Application Forms
Control of Major Accidents Hazards (COMAH) applies mainly to the chemical industry, but also to some storage activities, explosives and nuclear sites, and other industries where threshold quantities of dangerous substances identified in the Regulations are kept or used.

Opening up Alain de Botton's book Essays On Love for the screen, Julian Kemp's comedy runs riot with stop-motion animation, dizzying edits and ironic freeze-frames.
Alas, the one thing it doesn't throw at you is a satisfying emotional punch. Hugh Grant-esque newcomer Brendan Patricks does his stammering best as a suicidal bloke reviewing the five exes who brought him to a romantic nadir, and there's a charming turn from Naomie Harris.
But some flatly drawn characters, contrived sojourns from the story and a niggling sense of smugness make this a disappointing triumph of gimmickry over heart.

[QUOTE=SackDancer99;3390299]can you guys read? Ravens need to lose to an AFC team or else it doesn't help us.
Are you saying there is NO WAY the Bengals can lose 2 in a row at MIN and SD???[/QUOTE]
your logic makes no sense to me. way too many things have to happen.
if Baltimore wins today, it increases the chance of both Cinn and Balt making the playoffs right?
i would prefer Cinny and Indy to have nothing to play for the last two weeks of the season. that's our only shot of winning out in my mind.

Treatment of patients with both OCD and bipolar disorder should
include measures to achieve mood stabilization before initiating
treatment with agents, such as SRIs, that may induce or exacerbate
hypomania or mania. Stabilizing the bipolar disorder may require
a combination of medications, including lithium, anticonvulsants,
and second-generation antipsychotic drugs (193). In
bipolar OCD patients, SSRIs appear to be less likely than clomipramine
to precipitate hypomania or mania (29). Potential
drug interactions should be carefully considered when clomipramine,
fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, paroxetine, or sertraline are considered
for use in combination with these agents.
Episodic OCD, characterized by periods of markedly different
symptom severity independent of OCD treatment, appears to be considerably
more common in OCD patients with bipolar disorder (29).
Thus, a history of episodic OCD should raise the psychiatrist's
suspicion that co-occurring bipolar disorder may be present. Perhaps
as a result of co-occurring bipolar disorder, patients with episodic
OCD appear to be more likely to suffer from alcohol abuse or dependence,
panic disorder, and agoraphobia (29), which will also
require treatment.

MONTREAL, QUEBEC -- (Marketwired) -- 07/10/13 -- Ressources Minieres Pro-Or Inc. (TSX VENTURE: POI) is pleased to announce that it is undertaking a private placement for up to $2.3 million. This private placement is open to accredited investors, and consists of 500 Units for a total of 10,000,000 Class A shares. Each Unit is composed of:
-- 20,000 Class A shares priced at $0.23 per share and;-- 20,000 warrants to purchase Class A shares of the Corporation at $0.35 each for a 12-month period. The warrants will be subject to an accelerator clause by which the warrant expiry date can be shortened at the Corporation's discretion if the closing share price on the Exchange is $0.50 or higher for a period of more than 20 consecutive trading days, in which case the new expiry date would be the thirtieth day following formal written notification by the Corporation. Such notification cannot be issued during the first four months following the closing of this placement, which corresponds to the regulatory hold period applicable to all private placements.
The shares issued pursuant to the offering will be subject to a four-month hold period.
"Given the positive economic results of the pre-feasibility study prepared by Seneca, an independent engineering group, Pro-Or has decided to proceed immediately with an equity financing," said Sylvain Boulanger, President and CEO of Pro-Or.
"The lower operating costs in the study improve the profitability of the proposed 200-tons per year plant and reduce the payback period for the capital investment to 9.3 months.
Pro-Or plans to initiate activities leading to the construction of the proposed plant and the commissioning of four reactors with a capacity of 50 tons per year each. A comprehensive financial model and analysis of funding options to finance the construction of the 200-ton plant are also being prepared," he added.
The net proceeds from the private placement will be used to support ongoing operations at the St-Augustin plant with a 50-ton reactor, perform detailed engineering and automation for the four new reactors, purchase long-lead-time components and set up the new plant, as well as for general corporate purposes.
No finders' fee is expected to be paid for this private placement, which is subject to approval by the TSX Venture Exchange and the shareholders of the Corporation.
About Pro-Or
Pro-Or operates an industrial prototype plant for the recovery of Platinum Group Elements (Platinum, Palladium and Rhodium or PGMs). The plant is located near Quebec City in St-Augustin-de-Desmaures. Its patented process yields more than 97% recoveries of PGMs, and is not only much less capital extensive but also operates much more rapidly than conventional plants thus dramatically lowering the amount of time that its customers capital is tied up as work-in-process inventory. Pro-Or's mission is to sustainably recover precious metals by the recycling of end-of-life PGM containing components while meeting global "green" standards for the automobile industry.
Pro-Or also holds the mineral rights to six mining properties and has focused its exploration activities on the Menarik property in the James Bay area, in the Province of Quebec, the site of a major chromite deposit with occurrences of gold, nickel, copper and platinum group metals (PGMs). The operation of Pro-Or's patented and proprietary processes to such ore bodies promises a breakthrough in low cost primary mining metallurgy in the near future.

One of the duties of the Minnesota Dental Association's Dental Marketplace Committee is to "collect, review, and collate information on the effect of third-party involvement in the dental marketplace". We attempt to keep abreast of the dynamic dental workplace and provide Association members with the most accurate information and advice. To aid in this goal, a survey of third-party providers was initiated to create a Payor Report Card. The survey was conducted at the end of 2008.
This survey concept was approved by the MDA Board of Trustees (BOT) and funded by budgeting at the 2007 House of Delegates. MORI Research, an outside firm that has specialized in market research for more than 25 years, administered the survey, with some MDA oversight. Outside expertise was sought for the following reasons:
• To eliminate potential bias in the survey process
• To safeguard confidentiality of respondents
• To format the survey in a user-friendly design
• To compile data in an efficient manner
• To avoid unduly burdening MDA staff
Establishing the Format
The first decision involved selecting who we would survey. Our choices included patients/subscribers,employers/HR staff, and dental service providers/dental offices. Each group has its own perspective and varied experience. The Committee chose to begin with the dental providers/dental offices due to pool size, likely product knowledge, and ready access to email addresses.
This choice provided a manageably sized group (2,066) with an active email list, a survey group with vested interest in the topic, and the ability to ask more sophisticated questions. The possibility of additional future surveys of other targeted groups remains.
Another decision was how to conduct the survey. Options included mail, telephone, email, or a combination of these. The choice of email was selected due to lower associated costs, speed, easier data compilation, the desire to move our membership forward technically, and the desire to create a model which will allow the MDA to better conduct their own online surveys in the future.
This decision was integral in the selection of MORI research, as they expressed electronic surveys as an area of strength.
Making It Work
The Dental Marketplace Committee understood we would not reach everyone (75% of the membership have shared their email addresses) and that getting past some email filters could also be an issue.
The survey was designed to be completed by the "most knowledgeable person" in the office, which could be dentist, receptionist, business manager, and so on, so it could be delegated to the appropriate person. It was designed to be completed in 20 minutes or less. As an additional incentive to complete the survey, three randomly selected participants were awarded $100 gift vouchers. The potential goals included:
• Learning about our members' perception of their most utilized third-party payors
• Finding critical areas of comparison of payors
• Assessing strengths and weaknesses of payors
• Helping MDA members become more aware of comparison criteria
• Providing payors feedback and helping them improve performance
• Creating an ongoing process to measure performance
• Determining the level of concern on this topic by the membership
• Enhancing the MDA's ability to conduct surveys, especially of its Membership
The Marketplace Committee also brought forward several considerations for the BOT to consider prior to the survey's approval:
• Results would be dependent upon member (office) cooperation. We need a reasonable number of respondents to allow for valid conclusions.
• Results may not differentiate payors.
• It is difficult to conduct a survey without some degree of bias that may jeopardize the validity of results.
• New state law for "Uniform Electronic Transmissions" may make portions of the survey quickly obsolete.
• A survey will not serve all our members equally; i.e., those who do not participate in any programs, those who have no choice in their participation, etc. may not see the same value in the survey.
The Marketplace Committee, and subsequently the BOT, felt the potential outweighed the concerns. The Committee also felt this may allow us to tap into the silent majority of our members.
The Questions
Twenty-five questions (plus demographic information) were asked, generating 330 pages of data. Respondents were asked to evaluate only their top three payors by volume to provide a broad claim experience. Among our demographic questions was inquiry as to who in the office completed the survey. Seventy-seven percent of the surveys were completed by a dentist.
Questions about coding, contract issues, reimbursement, and service issues were posed. Several questions did not closely differentiate between some or all payors. Results offered here are a sampling of responses that indicated perceived differences.
Sampling of Results
Delta Dental of Minnesota was reported by 78.6% of respondents as their largest payor. Public programs were second with 6.1%, and Met Life and HealthPartners tied for third with 3%.
Asked if bundling, downcoding, or code changing occurred "every time or often" and asked if alternative benefit provisions were administered fairly, nearly an inverse relationship existed, as outlined below:
On Contract Issues:
1. Fairness of provider contract
2. The clear majority of respondents felt their contract was unclear about extending the provider network to other purchasers, although Doral/UCare, United Concordia, and MDB fared best.
3. Site audits were conducted at respondent's office by:
4. Respondents felt all audits were fairly conducted, except for 36.4% of those by Delta Dental of Minnesota (8 audits).
When asked about the typical reimbursement for office usual and customary fees, respondents reported: Public programs: 50% were reimbursed at less than 40% of their
office fees, 68% were reimbursed at less than 50% of their office fees, 87% were reimbursed at less than 60% of their office fees.
Questioned about benefit/eligibility files, all payors were judged somewhat to very accurate.
Rated on timeliness of an appeal/re-submission, Guardian and MDB were judged superior.
Questioned about usefulness of information on payor website, MDB and Public Programs outscored the competition, with Aetna and Cigna at the bottom.
Evaluating timeliness to speak to a network representative, HealthPartners, MDB, and Delta received the top scores, while Doral/U Care finished last.
Under co-ordination of benefits, Doral/U Care and United Concordia scored the lowest on promptness and were also judged least accurate.
For access to a decision-maker, MDB scored highest, while Doral/UCare was judged significantly worse than other third-party payors.
Asked about timeliness and helpfulness of information updates and newsletters, Delta Dental and MDB both scored highest, with Doral/UCare and Cigna at or near the bottom of both categories.
Unfortunately, the Committee was disappointed by the poor response from our membership. A considerable amount of time and resources were spent on this project, but without good participation, no survey generates valuable information. Only 164 responses (139 general practitioners) were received, which is only about 8% of the 2,066 emails sent. If calculated against total MDA membership or total dentists in the state, the percentage would be lower yet. This low rate of response makes even the strongest distinctions questionable. Such a small group is likely to have a large proportion of respondents with above average interests in the topic. This potentially introduces another type of error.
Possible reasons for the low response rate include:
MDA membership dislikes being surveyed or is surveyed too frequently
An online survey is the wrong method at this time.
This topic doesn't generate adequate interest.
Whatever the reason, the Marketplace Committee would like to thank those who did respond and will continue to explore ways to provide information about the dental workplace.

Key points
Pyelonephritis is an infection of one or both of your kidneys. Anyone can get a kidney infection but it's most common in women and people who have an abnormal kidney
You have two kidneys, which 'clean' your blood by filtering out water and waste products to make urine. Urine is stored in your bladder and then passed out of your body through your urethra. This is the tube that carries urine from your bladder and out of your body.
Pyelonephritis is a bacterial infection of your kidneys. The infection can be either acute or chronic. Acute and chronic refer to how long the condition lasts, rather than how severe it is. This factsheet will focus on acute kidney infection, which tends to come on quickly but should go within a couple of weeks.
The symptoms of an acute kidney infection often develop quickly over a few hours or a day and may include:
If you have any of these symptoms, contact your GP.
Around one in three women who get an acute kidney infection have symptoms of a bladder infection as well. This is also called cystitis, or a lower urinary tract infection (UTI). See our frequently asked questions for more information about UTIs.
An acute kidney infection can sometimes cause complications including:
You're more likely to develop complications if you:
A kidney infection is usually caused by bacteria such as Escherichia coli (E. coli), which live in your bowel. The bacteria can get into your urinary tract if they spread from your anus to your urethra. The bacteria can enter your urethra and travel up into your bladder and will usually cause a lower UTI or cystitis. The bacteria can then travel up one or both of the tubes that connect your bladder to your kidneys (ureters) and cause a kidney infection.
You can also spread the bacteria when you have sex, as bacteria can enter your urethra. Bacteria and viruses can also be carried in your blood from other parts of your body to your kidney.
Women get more kidney infections than men. This is partly because the urethra is much shorter in women than in men. There is less distance for the bacteria to travel to the bladder.
You're also more likely to develop a kidney infection if you:
Your GP will ask about your symptoms and examine you. He or she may also ask you about your medical history. Your GP will ask you to provide a urine sample. He or she will usually do a 'dipstick' test to confirm if you have a urinary infection. Your GP may send your urine sample to a laboratory to find out which type of bacteria is causing the infection.
In you have a severe kidney infection, your GP may recommend you go into hospital for further tests and treatment. Other tests may include:
It's important to drink enough fluids to prevent yourself from getting dehydrated. Make sure you get plenty of rest too.
If you need pain relief, you can take over-the-counter painkillers such as paracetamol. Always read the patient information leaflet that comes with your medicine and if you have any questions, ask your pharmacist for advice.
Your GP will usually prescribe antibiotics if he or she suspects that you have a kidney infection. It's important to take the full course of antibiotics, even if your symptoms clear up before you finish them. Your symptoms should start to improve within a day or so. But if they get worse or you don't feel any better within 48 hours of starting treatment, contact your GP.
Hospital treatment
You may need hospital treatment if you're:
In hospital, you may have a drip inserted into a vein in your hand or arm to give you fluids and antibiotics.
You may need to have surgery if tests show that you have an obstruction (such as a kidney stone) in your ureters or kidneys.
If you have a kidney infection when you're pregnant, it may lead to complications, such as:
If your GP suspects you have a kidney infection, he or she may send you for tests and treatment in hospital.
If you often get a kidney infection or a UTI, your GP may advise you to take a low dose of antibiotics every day. How long you need to take them for will depend on your personal circumstances.
You can also develop a kidney infection from cystitis. If you get cystitis, try self-help measures or get prompt treatment to cure the condition. This will reduce the risk of the infection spreading to your kidneys.

On Thursday the Washington Redskins decided that they would break from a monotonous tone of hirings and do something different when they decided to make jay Gruden their head coach. From the time that Daniel Snyder bought the Redskins franchise in 1999 this would be the eight head coach since then. But the thing different about this hiring is that it is the first time that the Redskins have chosen to take in a coordinator currently with another franchise in the NFL who is highly regarded as a talented coach with much talent to evolve into a good head coach. By all standards, hiring Gruden as a head coach is a positive decision.
Gruden was previously the offensive coordinator of the Cincinnati Bengals and was highly regarded by many other franchises. He was respected for the talent he packed and many other teams were looking at him to raise him to the same position of a head coach that the Redskins were looking at. Tennessee Titans, Minnesota Vikings and Detroit Lions and the Redskins were all in the chase to hire him. When he was at the Arena Football League and United Football League he racked experience as both head coach and office jobs. He has a diverse experience in all aspect of controlling a team and will do well with the Redskins. Bengals coach Marvin Lewis gave his opinion that Gruden was ready to take on the job as a head coach.
"Jay has already done it. He's been a head coach. He's been a general manager. It was a different league, I know. But he's run the whole thing. He knows how to put it together," he said. "He's a football junkie. He knows what he wants and how to bring it about. He's excited. I can hear it in his voice."
Gruden in his playing days was himself a quarterback so he has a lot to offer to developing quarterback talents. This goes extremely well with the Redskins franchise who have Robert Griffin III, a quarterback prospect who can easily evolve into a top notch NFL QB if trained right. Lewis said that Gruden's hiring would be extremely beneficial for Griffin.
"He sees offensive football through the eyes of the quarterback. That's very beneficial. He's basically playing the game with them, through them," Lewis said. "I think that's helped Andy so much. Jay really understands offensive football from the quarterback's standpoint."

Bad news guys, yesterday we posted that NVIDIA had the heads up on Grand Theft Auto V being released for PC this fall. As you can imagine, their comments (seen here) generated a lot of chatter, and also probably pissed off Rockstar Games, majorly.
Anyway, they've since had to retract and clarify their comments as follows, releasing the following statement via a spokesperson:
Please note, during our Thursday's earnings call, our investor relations team provided a list of important games that gamers are looking forward to on PC this fall, and included Grand Theft Auto V on that list. This statement was made with the intent of expressing enthusiasm for the games industry in general, and was not intended to represent specific knowledge possessed by NVIDIA. NVIDIA does not have information on any possible PC version release of Grand Theft Auto or its availability. We deeply regret the error.
Sorry to all our PC fans… deep down we knew it was too good to be true!

Hi loves,
I'm actually on vacation right now and don't have access to a computer, but I wanted to get this out on my phone this morning.
As many of you have probably heard, cory monteith was found dead in his hotel room in vancouver last night. No further details have been released as of this point. (As I mentioned, I'm on my phone, so I can't link you to news articles, but a google search will get you there).
Our hearts go out to cory's friends and family. He was only 31 and had a very bright future ahead of him.
Of course, we all want to afford cory's loved ones some privacy right now. Let's also remember that any concerns we might have about the future of glee or finn hudson are secondary to real life right now, and try not to worry about it too much yet.
We'll miss you Cory. Rest in peace.
Just to address a few comments I've been getting about that last gifset:
As previously noted, Naya Rivera is the best part of Glee this season, even if she hasn't been in every episode. Santana spent a lot of time offscreen at the University of Louisville, returning to Lima every once in a while to do something sad, like break up with Brittany or star in McKinley's production of Grease. Fortunately, she's still the queen of bitch-slappery. And she's also gotten to bust out more Tina Turner, improve Alicia Keys's "Girl on Fire," and — finally — move to New York. Vulture rang up Rivera, who is currently working on a solo album, to talk about the backlash from fans still unhappy about the Brittana split, and what it's been like behind the scenes of Glee's revamped fourth season. Plus: her thoughts on Finn's unfortunate new wardrobe and cuckoo Quinn.

Pink is fizzy and sometimes puffy.
Like cotton candy, it can be fluffy.
But, did you ever stop to think,
What if there was no color pink?
For instance, chewing bubble gum
Would be so boring and ho-hum,
'Cause it is no fun either way
Blowing bubbles in white or gray.
What would we call our finger and toe?
The smallest ones we have - you know.
Instead of calling them our "pinkies,"
We would have to say they're "dinkies!"
The arrival of new baby girls,
Wearing cute dimples and little curls,
Would mix up storks' deliveries
With only little blue blankies!
You'd dance the polka out of step
And likely lose your perk and pep.
Your feet would tangle up in knots
Not sporting those pink polka dots.
Dropping coins in a green piggy bank,
Would sound real dull, more like a clank.
So you might as well save your dimes and nickels
In a big jar of sweet crunchy pickles!
Iced animal crackers wouldn't taste the same.
We'd call spumoni by another name.
And dreaming of pink flying elephants
Would be more than just utter nonsense.
So, imagine this-
When something strikes your fancy
And makes you feel good inside,
You couldn't be tickled pink, but turquoise.
Now, that's just plain hue-icide!
But it's certainly not at all too late
For you to decide this color's fate.
There's no need to get too distraught-
I'll leave you with some food for thought:
The next time a pink grapefruit squirts you in the eye
And stings when you blink and makes you cry,
Just take a moment to stop and think
How much you appreciate the color pink!

Syria: British Special Forces, CIA and MI6 Supporting Armed Insurgency. NATO Intervention Contemplated

Global Research,
7 Jan. 2012,
Several articles in the British media confirm that British Special Forces are training Syrian rebels.
The underlying pattern is similar to that of Libya where British SAS were on the ground prior to the launching of NATO's military intervention.
A Responsibility to Protect (R2P) NATO intervention modelled on Libya is contemplated. The Free Syrian Army is a de facto paramilitary creation of NATO.

My husband works for a nonprofit does yours?
Jade suggested that I copy this from my journal and post it here, because it may reach more people...Here's to hoping ~
My husband works for a NGO in Rwanda and it is a 501c3 in the states -- ya know, non-profit work. :) His works requires him to travel much when he is in the country and also requires that he travels to RW for weeks at a time. This summer he was away for 7 weeks and he is leaving in a couple of weeks for almost 6 weeks. I was able to go this past summer for 10 days, but we were not able to bring our kids.
I am just wondering if there are other momma's out there that have young kids (or older) in the same or similar situation. I realize that there are jobs that spouses may have that require travel other than in the world of nonprofit work, but I'm really interested in the small population that I'm a part.
I would like to connect w/ mom's that stay at home with their kids and their husband/partner works in the nonprofit sector and travels. How do you manage for weeks at at time? Does the organization help to pay for you to travel to the location where your spouse works?
Are there any of you out there.....
I look forward to hearing from you and how you pass the time, create special rituals or days with your kids while he is away.
