Health Insurance Reform in Washington State
[Sorry, the video for this story has expired, but you can still read the transcript below. ]
GLADIS SPENCER: (talking to her bedridden mother) I'm going to turn you, maybe turn you on your back now, okay?
ROD MINOTT: Gladis Spencer of Tacoma, Washington, says she rarely leaves home nowadays. The retired phone operator is too busy caring for her 75-year-old mother, who recently suffered a stroke. Now Spencer has worries about her own health care. Last Fall, her insurance carrier sent this letter announcing it planned to raise her premiums from $142 a month to $195, almost a 28 percent jump. Spencer, who lives on a fixed income and suffers from diabetes, fears she may no longer be able to afford health insurance.
GLADIS SPENCER: I'm scared, because if I lose my health insurance, I can't buy my insulin. I mean, you know, I would have to go–I'd have to pay it out of pocket, and that's, that's going to be more.
ROD MINOTT: Since last Fall, thousands of Washington State residents like Spencer have seen rates on their individual policies skyrocket between 20 percent and 34 percent. The state insurance commissioner was so irritated at what she saw as price gouging that she filed suit to block the rate hikes.
DEBORAH SENN, Health Insurance Commissioner: These are very, very high rate increases, and it is a concern that they will produce rate shock, people will fall off the system. So certainly for families who are trying to hang on and trying to keep their health insurance, it is a crisis.
ROD MINOTT: But the insurance company said it was the state, itself, which was responsible for the high rates. They point to reforms passed by the legislature in 1993 that greatly restricted insurance companies' rights to refuse new or continuing coverage to those with preexisting medical conditions or to those who change jobs. Insurers say the reforms brought a flood of new subscribers into the so- called individual insurance market where policies are bought by individuals and not offered through an employer. By one estimate, up to 34,000 people, many of them thought to be very ill and previously uninsurable, signed up. Insurers like Pierce County Medical say that influx has left the company no choice but to raise their rates by as much as 34 percent on individual policies. Don Sacco is president of Pierce County Medical.
DON SACCO, Pierce County Medical: In 1994, when the reforms went into effect, our market grew by 40 percent. In 1994, the people who came to us are costing us twice as much in benefit payments as the 14,000 individuals who were enrolled prior to 1994.
ROD MINOTT: Sacco says that translated into $11 million in losses last year to Pierce County Medical. But Insurance Commissioner Senn says reform was needed.
DEBORAH SENN: Well, the biggest complaint you heard from people, and I heard it traveling around the state, is that I cannot change jobs, because I'm afraid I'm going to lose my health care coverage, I have been kept from having coverage at all because I've been sick but the insurers are very unhappy that they have to take people who have been sick in the past, are very unhappy that they have to take people who make claims.
ROD MINOTT: Senn points to examples like Melissa Kurtz, who suffers from a rare birth defect that causes bones to fracture easily. Kurtz says prior to reform, fear of losing health insurance kept her from changing jobs.
MELISSA KURTZ: I was not allowed, I was not able to transfer insurances because I "had a preexisting condition" because I had a disability, you just feel trapped, and angry and scared, because there are certain things that I need. I'm not a high user of health insurance but you never know when you're going to go out and get hit by a car or fall out of your chair or have a ball hit you in the head. You know, these things happen and to not have health insurance or have your basic needs covered is very frightening.
ROD MINOTT: But those who feel they are now paying the cost of extending insurance to those with serious medical problems are angry at Senn.
BRIAN McCULLOUCH: People here need to be able to purchase health insurance. And the biggest impediment right now to that are the cost increases. And frankly, Commissioner Senn, you created this crisis.
ROD MINOTT: At a recent town meeting, critics argued that the reforms have forced many insurers to freeze or abandon selling individual policies.
BRIAN McCULLOUCH: And you've increased costs by driving companies out of the state and by increasing loss ratios for the companies that are domiciled here. You've caused the contraction of the market. 67 percent of the carriers running individual health insurance in this state are gone.
MARGARET SENN: The legislature took away the tools that we had in place to protect the marketplace, so the only response to this criticism is, well, shall we turn the clock back and go back to a system where we basically said to sick people, no, you can't have insurance, that only well people could buy health insurance, because that's literally the alternative that's being proposed.
ROD MINOTT: Senn says the conflict could have been avoided if the entire health care reform package passed in 1993 was still in effect. But in 1995, the legislature overturned provisions that would have phased in universal health coverage by 1999 and required all employers to offer health insurance to workers. Premium rates would have also been capped.
MARGARET SENN: We had passed the most progressive health care reform package in the country, and then our House flipped and, uh, we had an extraordinarily conservative House, many of whom ran against health care reform, so there was very much an effort and a motivation to repeal as much of health care reform as possible.
ROD MINOTT: Senn says it was particularly harmful for insurance reform when the legislature did away with a provision known as community rating, where the risk and cost of health care are spread among the largest pool of people possible. In other words, everyone pays the same premium, regardless of age or health. Senn says community rating would keep insurance rates affordable.
SPOKESMAN: We need to be concerned about increased costs for all of our citizens.
ROD MINOTT: State lawmakers continue to debate how to stabilize insurance rates, but so far, they have failed to agree on a remedy.
GLADIS SPENCER: I didn't want to put her in a nursing home.
ROD MINOTT: Many, like Gladis Spencer, say they can't afford to wait. Spencer says she may be forced to give up her retirement.
GLADIS SPENCER: (talking to mother) There you go.
GLADIS SPENCER: So I worked many, many years sick, ill, you know. Now my body is, is not as–it's not what it used to be, but I feel like I shouldn't have to go back to work in order to pay for an insurance.
ROD MINOTT: Absent any solutions, there is concern others will soon join the ranks of the 600,000 uninsured in Washington State.
GLADIS SPENCER: (talking to mother) Do you feel uncomfortable?

From Reuters: Trying to stop smoking? Smokers have considerably more success when they use nicotine patches or prescription medications than when they try to go it alone, an international study found.
Past research has yielded conflicting evidence on the effectiveness of such aids since they seem to work in clinical trials, but less so in a real-life setting.
But the current researchers, whose findings appear in the journal Addiction, found that some quitting aids were linked to four-to-six-fold higher success rates.

Pitch 1 is excellent. Fun and juggy. Crux is moving past the double roof. Trusting excellent jugs let you clip the bolt just above to give you protection for moving up and through.
I don't recommend pitch 2. I couldn't figure out how to move around the roof and up to the anchors with out feeling super exposed. Afterwards a friend who'd climbed it before said there was a good under cling to the right but I did not find while on the route. I retreated and a friend rappelling the next route over recovered my bail draw.

Legends revived in Fort Griffin play
ALBANY -- The meeting of Wild West legends John Henry "Doc" Holliday, Wyatt Earp and "Big Nose" Kate Fisher took place not far from Abilene in a riotous town known as Fort Griffin, but more commonly called "The Flat."
Tales of the threesome's adventures inspired Scott and Sandra White to pen the play, "Wyatt Earp Meets Doc Holliday at the Flat."
The 30-minute play was performed Friday for schoolchildren and will be presented to the public today at the Fort Griffin State Park and Historic Site's Living History Days.
Activities at the park, which is 15 miles north of Albany, kick off with a flag-raising ceremony at 9 a.m. Attendees will be able to take stagecoach rides, watch military re-enactments, play old style games and eat barbecue and other fare.
This year marks the 140th anniversary of the establishment of the military post at Fort Griffin in Shackelford County.
The meeting of the three infamous Wild West legends took place 130 years ago in the civilian town of Fort Griffin, also known as the Flat.
The Whites, who live just south of Eula, became interested in the story after a trip to Tombstone, Ariz., several years ago. They learned details of the infamous 1881 gun battle at the O.K. Corral between the Clanton gang and the Earp brothers.
The Earps were assisted in the shootout by the murderous dentist, Doc Holliday.
The Whites were intrigued when they discovered that Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday, along with Doc's paramour, "Big Nose" Kate Fisher, had all been together near Abilene.
The trio met in 1877 at Fort Griffin.
The Whites, who are history buffs, wrote a play based on supposedly true events about Doc ripping open a gambler with a knife. While the killing was investigated, Doc was held under guard in a hotel room.
"Big Nose" Kate set fire to the hotel and during the hullabaloo, she and Doc left on horseback and fled back up the cattle trail to Dodge City, Kan.
The play was performed Friday at Fort Griffin for more than 1,000 school children.
"I thought it was really good," said Rachel Kitchens, 11, a fifth-grader at Nancy Smith Elementary School in Albany. "I liked how they did the songs in there. That was really cool that it actually happened."
The play has seven to nine cast members and has been performed at other old forts, including Fort Chadbourne south of Abilene.
Sandra White said not many people realize Doc, Earp and "Big Nose" Kate met in the Abilene area.
She and her husband are avid history buffs who particularly like the Old West. She is also interested in drama and is a counselor.
Scott White is retired. He is involved with a military re-enactment group called the Old Fort Griffin Memorial Regiment.
The group has up to 150 people, mainly from Texas, but also from Colorado, Oklahoma and Arkansas. The members, who have authentic uniforms, weapons and equipment, are performing at the Living History Days this weekend.
Fort Griffin Historic Site's Living History Days
When: 9 a.m.-5 p.m. today
Where: Fort Griffin Historic Site, 1701 U.S. 283 North. The site is 15 miles north of Albany.
Cost: $4 adults; $2 Texas State Parks Pass members, senior citizens and children ages 12 and under (free for toddlers and infants).
What's happening: Celebration of the 140th anniversary of Fort Griffin with 1870s military camps, artillery demonstrations, cavalry drills, sutlers and more. Demonstrations on how people lived on the frontier with people representing mountain men, traders, soldiers and more. Performances at 10:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. of "Wyatt Earp Meets Doc Holliday at the Flat," a play inspired by true events. The "Flat" was a nickname for Fort Griffin.

VIDEO: Oil's impact on SW Florida, Everglades will depend on wind, currents, scientists say
NAPLES - There are few certainties in predicting whether the Deepwater Horizon oil spill will make its way to Southwest Florida's shorelines, Florida Bay and the southern part of the Everglades, Florida scientists said Tuesday in a conference call held by the Everglades Foundation.
The scientists said it appears to be only a matter of time before the slick is picked up by the Gulf of Mexico's Loop Current. However, whether the slick makes it to shorelines is a matter of winds at the time when the oil is passing by, and, of course, when the well is capped.
Scientists said the Everglades and Florida Bay would be particularly devastated if the oil somehow moved into it, but there was no immediate danger to beaches on the west coast, which one scientist described as "the best Florida beaches."
"There is not an immediate threat to the western coast of Florida," said Bob Weisberg, a physical oceanographer and modeler for the University of South Florida, College of Marine Science.
That being said, if winds moved the oil — either at the surface of the water or diluted in the water — it could cause irreparable harm to plants and wildlife in the Everglades.
"If a surface slick runs close to shore along the southern tip of the peninsula, it could be pulled in and remain in there for years," said James Fourqurean, a seagrass ecologist with Florida International University, of Florida Bay.
Fourqurean said seagrass would stand up well against oil, due to their receiving life support from below the water in the sediment. However, mangroves could be killed, he said.
"The only time the sea grass plants themselves are drastically affected are when the oil pools up in low tide a couple inches," Fourqurean said. "When you take oil into the mangrove system, it can stop their activity and can actually smother the system."
Killing mangroves would amplify the impact on animals, said Jerome Lorenz, a mangrove and wading bird ecologist with Audubon of Florida.
"A good portion of our game fish species spend a portion of their life in those mangrove habitats," Lorenz said.
Species of red fish, snook, snapper, and sea trout could all be impacted by oil moving toward the shore, as could wading bird species such as osprey, heron and pelicans, the scientists said. Manatees, as well, could be affected if they come into contact with oil, Fourqurean said.
"If they have to come up through the oil, they come in direct contact with the oil," Fourqurean said. "That is a physical problem for them, as well as being directly toxic."
A full 84 percent of coral reefs in the U.S. are in Florida, said Richard Dodge, a coral reef biologist with Nova Southeastern University. These reefs can also be affected by oil, albeit of the diluted-in-water kind.
"We know there's a slick, but we also know that there is a lot of emulsified oil. That oil typically doesn't float," Dodge said. "If that is significant, that could have some direct affect on some coral reefs ... dispersed oil is very toxic to coral reefs."
It is certain the oil will be picked up by the Gulf of Mexico's Loop Current, Weisberg said. He estimated the oil could be in the Florida strait, below the state, within a week and east of Miami by two weeks.
But again, whether any of the other impacts occur depends on winds carrying the oil to shore. Those interested can visit the website of the Ocean Circulation Group, part of the University of South Florida's College of Marine Science, for models and forecasts of the currents and the wind at http://ocgweb.marine.usf.edu.
"It will tend to stay on the in-shore side of the Loop Current," Weisburg said. "Whether or not it gets into shallow water will be totally dependent upon what the winds will be doing."

Georgiev and Chen were both first authors of the PNAS report, and the University of Connecticut's Anderson was another co-author. The K* algorithm software is available as open source code for other researchers to evaluate and use.
"While gramicidin S is probably not a really useful antibiotic against emerging infectious diseases, it's a great model system for studying how such enzymes work, because we know a lot about its 3-D shape," Donald said. "It should, in principle, be possible to redesign any enzyme." That might include revamping the machinery that makes other workhorse enzymes in gramicidin's family, such as penicillin and vancomycin.
Vancomycin is considered an antibiotic of last resort for patients infected by methicillin-resistant germs. And Donald's group has now begun to study the proteins involved in its synthesis inside the bacterium Amycolatopsis orientalis. "We believe K* can be used to redesign them too," he said.

11 June 2015: Four Agencies Newly Registered - Policy on Use and Interpretation of the ESG
Register Committee members convened in Dublin on 4-5 June to discuss various (renewal) applications and the transition to the revised ESG.
The following agencies were newly admitted to the Register:
- BAC - British Accreditation Council for Independent Further and Higher Education
- fmdi - Fundación para el Conocimiento Madridmasd
- KAA - Kosovo Accreditation Agency
- QQI - Quality and Qualifications Ireland
The Register Committee also decided to renew the registration of another three agencies:
- ACSUCYL Agency for the University System in Castilla y Léon
- AHPGS - Accreditation Agency in Health and Social Science
- evalag Evaluation Agency Baden-Würrtemberg
With regard to the transition to the revised European Standards and Guidelines, the Register Committee adopted a new policy document providing an ex ante transparency of the official EQAR interpretation of the ESG. The new policy Use and Interpretations of the ESG aims to increase transparency, understanding and consistency within the decision-making process of the Register Committee.
The main target groups of the policy on the Use and Interpretation of the ESG are the quality assurance agencies, the external review coordinators and the external review panels.
The Register Committee also updated the Procedures for Applications. We are currently updating the Guide for Applicants and additional information for applicant quality assurance agencies.

14/15 May 2015: Revised ESG adopted in Yerevan At the ninth EHEA Ministerial Conference, Ministers adopted the Yerevan Communiqué including the Revised Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education Area (ESG) and the European Approach for Quality Assurance of Joint Programmes.
14/15 May 2015: Revised ESG adopted in Yerevan
The revision process started in 2012, when Ministers mandated the E4 group in cooperation with Education International, BUSINESSEUROPE and EQAR to revise the ESG in order to improve their clarity, applicability and usefulness, including their scope and submit their proposal to the Bologna Follow-Up Group (BFUG).
The EQAR Register Committee has been preparing for the adoption of the Revised ESG at various stages of the process and on different levels. In early June, a policy document on the Use and Interpretation of the ESG as well as information on the future application process will be published.

Further highlights of the year include EQAR's preparations for transition to the revised ESG and the conclusion of the RIQAA project, with a number of conclusions and policy recommendations on the development of cross-border quality assurance.
26 March 2015: EQAR General Assembly in Riga At EQARs 9th General Assembly, held in Riga on 23 March in conjunction with the BFUG meeting, six new members were welcomed and attended their first General Assembly: Azerbaijan, Finland, Lithuania, Moldova, the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and the United Kingdom.
26 March 2015: EQAR General Assembly in Riga
The General Assembly reviewed and adopted the Message to the Yerevan Ministerial Conference which highlights some of EQARs activities as well as the main developments in cross-border quality assurance since the last ministerial meeting in 2012 (Bucharest) and offers a number of recommendations for the Yerevan Communiqué.
Members of the GA took note of the Use and Interpretation of the ESG, a policy document prepared by the Register Committee, based on the current "Practices and Interpretations". Likewise linked to the revised ESG, the General Assembly considered a number of amendments to the Procedures for Applications and approved to extend the current term of the Register Committee by one year to ensure a smooth and stable transition to the revised ESG. These documents will be published after the Yerevan Ministerial Conference in May.
The Annual Report 2014, including the Report of the Register Committee, was presented to the General Assembly and will be published shortly.
29 January 2015: Register Committee Special Session on New ESG On 23 and 24 January 2015 the Register Committee held their 14th meeting in Brussels to discuss, amongst others, the revised version of the ESG, the decision making process of the Register Committee and external reviews of quality assurance agencies.
29 January 2015: Register Committee Special Session on New ESG
VLUHR-QA (the Quality Assurance Unit of the Flemish Council of University and University Colleges), already provisionally registered by way of the EQAR Merger Policy was accepted to the Register after having demonstrated their substantial compliance with the European Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance (ESG) through an independent external review.
The main reason for convening the Register Committee meeting so soon after the last meeting in November was to discuss the Revised Version of the ESG and set up ESG Interpretation Guidelines. These Guidelines will be published after the approval of the Revised ESG by the next Ministerial Conference of the EHEA in May 2015, and are meant to:
- increase the transparency of the Register Committee's decision-making practice;
- help demonstrate consistency in the Committee's practices, interpretations and decisions on applications;
- aid external review panels in understanding how the Committee has interpreted the ESG and used external review reports;
- facilitate the understanding of the Committee's public decisions.
The ESG Interpretation Guidelines address three main target groups: quality assurance agencies seeking registration on EQAR or having to renew their registration, coordinators of external reviews that are used for registration on EQAR and external review panels undertaking a review against the ESG.

Article ID: 2549443 - View products that this article applies to.
This article describes a method to improve the performance of Microsoft SQL Server queries that use full-text search predicates (such as CONTAINS and CONTAINSTABLE) and that also filter data. For example, this method improves the performance of the following query:
This method lets you design the query, table schema, and full-text index in such a way that the full-text search engine filters out results before they are sent to the relational engine. Therefore, the relational engine does not have to filter a large dataset.
More information
When you create a full-text search query, the principle factor that affects the performance of the query is the quantity of data that the full-text search engine must process before the remaining data is sent to the relational engine. In SQL Server, you can improve the performance of the query by filtering out rows early to reduce the number of rows that must be processed later.
In versions of SQL Server that were released before SQL Server 2008, the full-text search engine returns all the rows that match a search term, and then the relational engine applies any filters. Improvements to this behavior were made in SQL Server 2008, in SQL Server 2008 R2, and in SQL Server 2012. However, it is difficult to use these improvements because full-text search indexes are organized very differently from database indexes. Additionally, the full-text search engine and the relational engine work very differently. Therefore, the method that this article describes uses the Table-Valued Function (TVF) to filter out rows early and to reduce the number of rows that must be processed later.
For example, the following query plan returns 131051 rows that match a CONTAINS search string. Additionally, a join operator in the plan performs additional filtering by using an index seek.
However, if the query includes the full-text unique index key column as a predicate, the full-text search engine can use the predicate to filter results at the full-text level. In this situation, the TVF returns a much smaller amount of data before additional filtering must be applied. For example, the following query specifies five values that must match the c2 condition, and the TVF returns only those results that match the five values:
The full-text search engine's ability to push down the values that are used by the unique index key is the basis of the following method.
If a predicate contains a DateTime data type column, you can include date information in the unique index key column so that only the rows that match this predicate are emitted. To do this, you must logically incorporate the date information in the key column. However, you may also have to change the key column data type and applications that use the query.
To implement the method, change the data type of the full-text unique key ID to BIGINT. The first 4 bytes of the key ID capture the year, month, and date values from the date column, and the last 4 bytes remain the same. For example, the first byte of the key ID could refer to the year, the next byte could refer to the month, and the last two bytes could refer to the date. The application must accommodate this data type change.
Then, translate a range predicate to a predicate on the key ID. For example, the "x < CDate< y" range predicate can be translated to the "(x*2^32 < ID < y*2^32)" predicate. Because the translated predicate is a predicate on the full-text key, the predicate will be pushed down into the full-text Streaming Table-Valued Functions (STVF). This behavior effectively performs searches within the date range.

I have a SW nerd friend who recognizes the anniversary of the premiere of Episode I (May 19, 1999) and always mentions it when it rolls around. Which is cool. I actually like Episode I, but I don't think there are too many souls in this country no matter how fiendishly geeky they might be that pay tribute to May the 19th and celebrate
The Phantom Menace.
That kind of thing will lead to bodily harm in some circles.
Well, it's also the date that REVENGE OF THE SITH was released in 2005, and I think everybody agrees that THAT was the better movie (at least I think so).
You could always tell you friend to just mention that instead.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — Jersey City, N.J., may be an unlikely place to find a utility-scale solar farm, but Petra Solar has found a way to generate electricity from the sun even on hard-paved urban streets.
Bolted onto street-light and utility poles across Jersey City and other urban and suburban areas of the state, a five-foot by two-and-a-half-foot solar panel is attached about 15 feet above the ground, tilted south toward the sun.
Each new solar panel from the privately held South Plainfield, N.J., clean-energy technology firm generates about 225 watts of power, adding to generation capacity and helping utilities meet renewable-power requirements.
"It allows you to deploy quickly and cost effectively because you don't have to invest in land, you're not building substations or transformers," said Petra Solar Chief Executive Shihab Kuran.
Under a contract with Public Service Enterprise Group Inc. PEG, -1.40% — New Jersey's biggest utility — Petra Solar is now about halfway through its $200 million commitment to provide 40 megawatts of solar power in six cities and 300 rural and suburban communities in the utility's service area. So far, it's put up about 95,000 of the panels with a total generation capacity of 20 megawatts, enough power for 3,250 homes.
Petra Solar sells the panels to utilities, which are responsible for maintaining them during an expected life span of 25 years.
Petra Solar says it takes just 30 minutes to install one of its panels, which feeds its electricity directly into the utility's power lines. Included in the gear are devices that hook up to an AT&T T, -0.78% communications network to allow utilities to remotely monitor their electricity lines.
The network gear helps old-school copper power wires behave more like an Internet-based information-technology system.
"The panels help create distributed energy, which takes stress away from central generation stations," Kuran said. "When you generate power closer to the load, it's more effective. Also, the smart-grid technology lets utilities have their eyes and ears open to what they're delivering to their customers and that allows them to deliver the right amounts of power."
Homes: most affordable, expensive
You can get a four-bedroom home for about $60,000 in the most affordable real-estate market, but it'll cost you as much as $2.5 million in the priciest market. Stacey Delo talks with MarketWatch's Amy Hoak.
Kuran said he came up with the idea to use utility poles when he asked a prospective employee during a job interview to brainstorm about ways to apply solar technology.
"I was challenging the candidate to think outside the box in order to tackle the challenges we faced in New Jersey, where land is expensive...and the labor rate is high," Kuran recalled in a phone interview with MarketWatch. "I looked outside my window and saw a pole. I said, 'How about if we put (the solar panel) on the pole?' "
Panels draw complaints, praise
While the panel program continues to fan out across Public Service Electric and Gas Co.'s service area, the utility has drawn aesthetic complaints from some residents and municipal officials.
Robert Cotter, a director in the Division of City Planning for Jersey City, said municipal officials held a meeting with PSE&G to complain about Petra Solar panels upsetting the integrity of some historic blocks. Cotter said the city has no plans to mount any legal challenge because they would almost certainly lose.
"They agreed to remove five or six of them, but we're stuck with them," Cotter said. "Some folks do think they're beautiful because they help create more sustainable power. I just don't notice them any more."
Steven Fulop, a city council member in Jersey City, said he's heard complaints about the panels.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hilton Sharm Waterfalls Resort Sharm El-Sheikh
Enjoy feeling special?
My husband, teenage sons and myself have recently return from this hotel after too short a week's stay.
Wonderful weather, staff and surroundings. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff at this hotel and the guy Ali who runs excursions from the hotel is both reliable and didn't rip us off on prices, he will even take Great English pounds as they are known in this part of the world.
The breakfast were excellent with plenty of variety and enough to keep you going until late afternoon. Mr Coffee circulates the dining room with fresh hot coffee and a variety of tea bags suitable for any tea addict.
As requested we had interconnecting rooms with lovelt views to the sea and the well maintained gardens and ponds. The gardeners work from dawn til dusk pruning, trimming and tending to the beautiful flowers and shurbs. As you walk through the jasnine arches the smell is devine.
It was my husband's birthday during our visit and he was greeted with more 'Happy Birthdays' that day then we can remember, on returning to our rooms that day we were greeted with towel sculpturesand flowers on all our beds.
The swimming pools and their attendents were top rate too, not only would the attendent find you a suitable spot around one of the pool areas but he would lay your towels on the sunbed and ensure hospital corners were in place on each sunbed. In general the service was wonderful it was so nice to be treated so well by staff who seemed to care ( until the service we have now grown use to especailly in the UK)
Yes we tipped the staff but not huge amounts and not every time you need to remember the cost of living in Egypt is much lower than the UK. A bottle 2litre of mineral water served to you by the pool worked out at about �1. Not bad you would pay that in the UK!
The private beaches were small but nice and not over crowded.
If you're looking for busy nightlife there is a disco at the hotel but we didn't try it, in general the evenings at the hotel were a little quiet but Naamha Bay is not far away with a shuttle bus service running from the hotel and taxis too.
I could write heaps more about our time at the Waterfalls, but maybe no one has read this far? So I'll end now but just to end would I go back? YES!
Absolutley Fabulous, pure relaxation, I did not get off my backside for 7 days apart to go quad biking in the desert, great fun.
I am the most paranoid parent and we took my 13yr old daughter and her friend and after sussing out the safety aspect, we did not really see them all day, we just met up for meals. The staff were extremely friendly and could not do enough for you, the men did not bother our girls which was something I was a bit concerned about prior to going, even in Naama Bay they were not too bad they didnt keep bothering you they just tried to be friendly.
Our hotel prices were comparable with Naama Bay so we tended to eat in the hotel the food was good and their was plenty to choose from, the girls especially liked the fahitas in latinos bar. The disco was very quiet but that suited the paranoid mother as the girls would go up for an hour whslst we sat in the lobby having a drink
Breakfast well you could not ask for anything more talk about choice, although I would say try to avoid the 9-10am rush, we tended to go up at about 10.30 and it was fine. The cleaner was very friendly and every day gave us a lowdown on what to expect for the weather, we were very fortunate as it was very breezy all the time we were there, although this did restrict us on swimming round the coral reefs, but even in the shallow water there is plenty to see.
I would recommend this hotel to anyone who likes to chill and have a rest, my husband gets very itchy feet but even he found it very difficult not to just lie back and watch the world go by, we all had a fantastic time and the girls were most miserable at the prospect of coming home, we shall certainly be returning asap
Excellent in all respects. The highlights were 1) Stunning resort 2) Very attractive rooms 3) Staff the most helpful I have known 4) Didn't try buffet other than for breakfast which was excellent, but the a la carte restuarants were excellent.
A thouroughly excellent hotel.
Loved the friendly staff but got Egypy Tummy !
I stayed at this hotel with my wife from 6-13 March 2005, which is advertised as 5 star. The hotel has a lovely tiered setting overlooking the Red Sea and has its own private beach. Around the hotel are a number of hugh swimming pools surrounded by luxury padded reclining sunbeds, bars and sun umbrellas. The grounds of the hotel are extremely well maintained and very beautiful. There is a waterfall running down from the hotel towards the beach with a couple of ponds. The accommodation is set in blocks of about 20 rooms (about 400 for the whole hotel) with 50% having a sea view. Our room was near the reception facing away from the sea. It still had nice views across the grounds looking towards mountains. We were able to enjoy lovely sunsets. The grounds are fumigated at dawn and dusk against insects especially mosquitos. I only got bit twice during the week which is good for me as its usually lots more. The hotel has a buffet restaurant (for half board residents which we used) and about three restaurants which you can upgrade too. A pint of local lager is �2 and a small glass of wine is �3.50 (these prices include taxes). Not exactly cheap but you are in a moslem country and its difficult to get alcohol. You can only buy from local duty free shops (3 in the area) if you do so within 24 hours of arrival. Supermarkets only sell alcohol free beer. There were several supermarkets about 100 yards from the hotel. A can of pop was 20p. Two bottes of water and a large bag of crisps cost us 90p total !!! It shows how much the hotel is making out of its guests whom they ban from bringing food or drink from outside.
The staff were very friendly and helpful and I felt were not after tips. I did tip when I felt it warranted it.
We did not do any excursions as we wanted a relaxing week. However a trip to the pyramids at Cairo would have cost �150 each, which included the flight.
There are a number of shops, bars, in the locality of the hotel for tourists and each one you pass a staff member will try and engage you in conversation and get you into the shop. Then they will not let you browse alone. It gets a bit tiring after a while. We were not approached by any beggars. A taxi to Narm Bay for two of us was �2. Here there are even more shops, bars, cafes, etc and a nice beach.
I would rate the buffet food at the hotel as average. Indeed, I ended up with food poisoning on the last day and was physically sick. (We only ate at the hotel - my wife was okay) I am just getting over it. Apparently this is a big problem in Egypt... 'egypy tummy'...even at The Hilton. Overall, a nice relaxing week in a nice hotel but beware the food.
Excellent Choice
Just got back from the Hilton Sharm Waterfalls - what a great hotel!!
The complex is a little outside of the centre, which is brilliant if you want to get away from it and Naama Bay is only a short taxi ride away.
Definitley recommend anyone staying here.
A good choice
This hotel ticks all the boxes for a well presented and managed international resort type hotel.
Good sized rooms - twins are 2 single beds but the mattresses were good and all the soft furnishings were in good condition.
Well laid out public areas and grounds - altho maybe not so good for those less able to walk as the hotel is really quite spread out and there are many steps (altho a funicular/ outside lift helps you get from the top/ public areas to the main pool area).
Food was good - indeed, breakfast was excellent and we tried the buffet one night and it also was fine.
Take some shoes to paddle in ! The coral reefs attached to the hotel's beach are lovely and well worth a "snorkel" but the jetty leading from the beach out to the sea is actually in the water and gets slippery.
Many Russians and Italians at the resort - there seemed to be a "Club Med" type Italian tour operator using the hotel and their reps voices and music over the loudspeakers could be a bit invasive when encouraging their throng to partake in the group sports activities, but it comes in fits and spurts so not impossible to bear.
Neither Sharm nor Naama Bay appeared very "Egyptian" in character or style (unlike somewhere like Luxor) so we chose to stick mostly in the hotel and enjoy it's facilities. Good hotel, we ate and drank well - no complaints - and others seemed to feel the same.
Loved the hotel - great holiday
We booked a holiday to the Hilton Waterfalls hotel as a last minute deal, hoping for a relaxing holiday in a nice hotel. This is exactly what we got - the hotel was fabulous with great pools, excellent breakfasts and extremely helpful and pleasant staff. We went in January and the weather was lovely - about 22oC every day with a light breeze - just warm enough for relaxing in the sun or snorkelling in the Red Sea admiring the fish swimming beside you! The hotel is about 3 miles from Naama Bay but there is a bus that runs from the hotel hourly in the evening. We ate at the hotel most of the time - the Italian and Lebanese restaurants were both delicious - and went into Naama Bay twice. It was quite lively although there are a lot of vendors trying to get you into their shops ALL the time. Old Sharm is even worse for vendors and we didn't like it at all. We also went to Cairo and the Pyramids for a day trip, which we organised through our holiday rep. The trip was a long day, even though we flew to Cairo, but well worth a visit and our tour guide was excellent. All in all, we had a fantastic holiday and would definitely go back again.
Super Room - loved this resort
We had a fantastic family sized room at swimming pool level at the Hilton Sharm Waterfalls. It was immaculately furnished, very clean and comfortable with two double beds and a large bathroom. Our terrace looked out to the large swimming pool. The pools were a bit chilly but the children enjoyed them. We tried various restaurants which were a bit variable to be honest but the breakfast buffet was very good. The spa was good and reasonably priced. Its out of town - you have to get a cab but this is not a problem and its fun to go down in the evenings and eat out and enjoy the shops and shisha cafes. Can't really fault the place and would go there again. The beach was poor as it is right on the reef and you can snorkel - with care and good shoes.
Spot on for a chillout holiday
From the moment we arrived to the day we left, the staff couldn't do enough for us. They were always cheerful, often cheeky and turned our stay in a very good hotel into a top experience. The hotel itself is of typically modern Egyptian, somewhat gaudy decor, was immaculately maintained and very clean. Breakfast and evening meal times were very flexible and the food in general good. The variety offered at breakfast in particular was excellent. Activities were fairly low key, with aquagym, aerobics and belly dancing classes, but then the hotel was only about one-third full when we went (5-12 Dec). There is a health club with small gym and massage services, all of which you have to pay for. Similarly the tennis court needs booking and there is an approx �2 charge per hour - be warned that for much of the time the court is in use for coaching Italians from the Blu Club which is in the grounds.
Our only quibble was with being wrongly charged for items for the minibar - and we weren't the only ones! They amended the bill with little quibbling, however.
Would definitely return to this hotel for some winter sun.
Wonderful waterfalls resort
What a holiday, the best yet. We were greeted with smiling faces, welcoming words and a fantastic room. The resort is clean, well maintained, and the people are so friendly. The service is excellent and nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Facilities are very good but there was not a lot to do for the young children, apart from the pools which were excellent. The food was good and you could have whatever you wanted-even have it bought upto your room-even egg and chips! If you want a nice friendly, relaxing holiday this is the place to be. The worst part of the holiday was having to come home, but at least we will be able to go back next year.

Now that I upgraded my original iPhone to the 2.0 software, I am using it more and more with my hosted Exchange account keeping me in sync. Just like folks who are using the iPhone 3G more since it is faster and there are lots of third party applications available, I am using my iPhone more with the syncing and application testing. Thus, I am not able to get through a full day of using my device without somehow charging up the iPhone. I may be able to connect to a PC or Mac from time-to-time, but I am often out and about so I needed a mobile solution.

Crystal IS Introduces Optan LED Technology Groundbreaking High-Performance UVC LED Available for Spectroscopic Applications in Analytical and Life Sciences Instrumentation PR Newswire GREEN ISLAND, N.Y., June 10, 2014 GREEN ISLAND, N.Y., June 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Crystal IS, a leading developer of high-performance ultraviolet (UVC) LEDs, today announced availability of Optan. The first commercial semiconductor based on native Aluminum Nitride (AIN) substrates, Optan provides a unique technology platform for increased detection sensitivity, essential for analytical and life sciences instrumentation—from monitoring of chemicals in pharma manufacturing to drinking water analysis. Crystal IS. The Optan product is a breakthrough for design engineers looking to overcome limitations associated with traditional UV lamps, including deuterium and xenon flash lamps. As an enabling technology, Optan allows developers to fully exploit the power of UV-based technology to improve productivity, increase accuracy and create greater flexibility in product designs. "This is an exciting time for Crystal IS and an achievement for the semiconductor industry as a whole," said Larry Felton, CEO of Crystal IS. "Optan will help instrument manufacturers build smaller, more powerful tools and products with a lower overall system cost.

Just bought a Cannondale F7 Mtn Bike which I will use for 75% paved trail riding (with young son) and 25% light off road or beginner mtn bike trails. I like having a mirror to glance back and see if the 9 year old son is still tagging along or not when I am in front of him.
I was shocked to find that the inner diameter of the handlebars is too narrow to accept the normal bar end type of mirror. Is this the norm for mtn bike bars? I had an experienced mechanic attempt to install different types of mirrors and even he tore up 2 mirrors.
I assume that I will just need to get new bars. However, I don't want to do this if all mtn bike bars are this way. I don't like the helmet mirrors.
Any help appreciated.

i power my wireless pads with 2x2000mAh cells. The backside of the wireless pad reads '5V - 450mAh'. That might be maximum input current i think.
But what is the real median current flow of a wireless controller (like 50mA = 4000mAh / 50mA = 80h)?
I grabbed my ampere meter and some acrobatic skills and measured some 22.76mA during idle. It doesn't really raises when pressing buttons or sticks but when leds are changing (low battery) it raises to 26.7mA. Rumble not tested.
So 4000mAh / 22.76mA = 175,75h = 7,3 days of continuous power.
These are just some fast/draft values of course. My cells (alkaline) are quite empty currently. Not sure if it pulls more if full (with more voltage).

Minnesota Declares June 24th Donaldson Company Day
Donaldson Company celebrated its hundredth year in business today at their global headquarters in Bloomington, MN. After 100 years of success Donaldson can now add a Minnesota state holiday to their long list of achievements. Mark Dayton, Governor of Minnesota, has officially declared June 24th 2015 as Donaldson Company Day.
Started in 1915, Donaldson Company began when Frank Donaldson, SR invented an air cleaner for an engine in a local customer's farm tractor. Since then they have dedicated themselves to the pursuit of innovative solutions to air and liquid filtration. MRO Stop is proud to be a distributor of Donaldson's filtration products and is excited to contribute to their continued success.

3 Reasons to Think About A Preventative Maintenance Plan
Preventative Maintenance is a crucial element of almost all applications. Especially when that application is the cornerstone of the company's profit flow. Disruptions and downtime can be extremely expensive and riddled with disaster. The good news is that a majority that the proper preventative maintenance strategy can eliminate downtime and profit loss.
When you have a plan for handling errors and problems in production you can perform quick turn around that keeps your production flow going. This efficiency also includes your personnel ability to work on more important things instead of scrambling to get something fixed. Attempting to fix a problem without a plan can take considerably more time than you think.
Reduced Costs
Ordering parts in a rush can incur larger shipping costs and that's if you even order the right part. Waiting for a problem to appear before planning to fix it can mean an overlap in application knowledge and require your personnel to make decisions, under stress, about areas that they aren't prepared to make. If you have the product on the shelf with an understanding across personnel as to what happens during downtime can really affect the bottom line.
A preventative maintenance plan means you are actively paying attention to your systems and any potential weaknesses. This adds value by extending the life of your machines instead of letting them just kind of 'break if they break'. This wastes company resources through both products and personnel. Trained staff is a positive investment overall.
Types of Hydraulic Fluids
Petroleum Based
Petroleum based fluids are by far the most popular and widely used fluids in hydraulic systems today. It's popularity can be attributed to its economical pricing and its above average lubricity. Another strong point for petroleum-based fluids are that they have low toxicity levels. Petroleum based fluids can refer to either straight oil or an oil that's mixed with assorted additives.
Fire Resistant Fluids
These fluids are comprised of a high content of noncombustible material, thus giving them their fire resistant ability. These fluids are best used in applications where a host failure or bust could lead to a potentially flammable situation. These fluids are typically divided into two categories Phosphate Esters and High Water Based Fluids.
HFD Fluids
HFD fluids are traditional synthetic products that typically don't contain either water or petroleum. The most common HFD fluid is polyol ester because of its wide range of compatibility with most system materials and it's amazing fluid performance. HFD tend to be more environmentally friendly that the petroleum and fire resistant fluids because of the absence of certain additives.
Leaks and accidents can happen at any time and run the risk of hydraulic fluids contaminating the surrounding environment. This is especially as issue with applications near water sources and fragile ecosystems. Biodegradable hydraulic fluids have seen much popularity in the last few years due to the increase regulations around pollution and contamination. Common types of oils are typically vegetable oils and synthetic oils. If you are switching over to a biodegradable fluid from a petroleum based or fire resistant fluid, it's important to verify that your components are designed to use these fluids.
3 Killer Tips For Hydraulic Filter Storage
1. Filters must be completely sealed during storage
Otherwise you run the risk of outside contaminants on what should be a brand new clean filter. Metal shelving can cause condensation to form on filters if sitting directly on metal, causing the filter to degrade and rust over time, rendering it useless.
2. Always handle filters with the utmost care
Especially if they are not in a box or sealed up. This also pertains to the transportation of filters to and from the job site. Never let filters roll around in the bed or floorboard of a truck.
3. Utilize the 'FIFO' methodology when using filters
FIFO stands for 'First In First Out' , it will serve you well to always use the older inventory first. Make sure filter boxes or containers are properly labeled with dates and information. If you have to pull the filter out every time to see if it is the one you need you are actively increasing the chances of that filter becoming contaminated.
5 Common Ways Hydraulic Systems Get Contaminated
In order to understand hydraulic system contamination, you have to go to the oil source. Even new oil straight from the shipping container is going to have contamination that is beyond the acceptable level that's efficient for more hydraulic systems. It's always a safe bet to consider oil to never be clean until you have filtered it. Contamination is a sly dog and the ways it can spoil seemingly clean oil is almost endless. Your system's efficiency is on the line when it comes to contamination so be vigilant.
1. New Fluid
Most fluid and oil is ready for your system when it first arrives at location. It needs to be filtered and inspected before being introduced into your hydraulic system to prevent any traveling contaminants from infiltrating.
2. Built-In
Beware of contamination the gets introduced into a hydraulic system when assembling and testing new components. Whenever you add something new to a system keep in mind that it could be bringing its own foreign contaminants to the mix.
3. Biological Growth
Water is an integral element to just about all life on Earth and when it is ever present in the fluids coursing through your system there is always a chance that some biological growth can occur. Keep this in mind especially if you used fluid that contains high water amounts.
4. Operational & Maintenance Related
It's important to consider the amount of contaminants that are involved with standard maintenance procedure. Pumps and motors can corrode over time and introduce contamination into your fluid slowly but can really cause severe damage if not monitored. Maintenance and efficiency should go hand in hand.
5. Component Degradation & Replacement
Overtime much of the rubber and elastomer components used in your system will start to degrade. When this degradation occurs there is a strong possibility of your fluid becoming contaminated with stray particles. Another contamination pivot point here is to make sure that when you are replacing a degraded/fault component that you thoroughly clean the conductor lines.
Selecting the Right Hydraulic Filter
Contaminants are the enemy of hydraulic circuits in applications worldwide. Inefficiency and downtime are the two most costly repercussions caused by a variety of contaminants, often resulting in excessive repair. The most important defense against inefficiency and downtime is the protection of the hydraulic circuits more sensitive components; this is the path to effective contamination control.
How do you know which housing style or filter is the best for protecting your systems and equipment?
Here are some steps to help you identify the correct parts for efficient contamination control.
1.Determine Operating Pressure and Flow Rate
Identify the most critical component in you systems hydraulic operating environment. Now think of two factors that are critical to keeping the component performing properly. Ex. Nominal and Maximum Operating Pressure or Nominal and Maximum Flow Rate
2.Select Filter-Housing Model
Donaldson Filters has a great filter selection guide that can help you identify exactly what meets your requirements.
3.Consider Application Factors
Once you identify the appropriate housing and filters you must take into consideration others factors that play into the components maintenance and protection
4.Choose the Appropriate Accessories
There are all types of different filter accessories that can help you in your contamination control efforts and prolong the life of your filters. Breathers, suction strainers, or gauges are all important parts of the overall system.
5.On-Going Contamination Control Practices
Contamination control is an ongoing process and requires routine checks and balances to maintain the components. Regular fluid analysis help monitor fluid contamination and condition.
