Medicare Part D:
Opportunities Exist for Improving Information Sent to Enrollees and Scheduling the Annual Election Period

In Medicare Part D, enrollees in stand-alone prescription drug plans (PDPs) are allowed to switch plans during an annual coordinated election period (AEP) set under law from November 15 to December 31, with new coverage effective January 1. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) required that plan sponsors send an Annual Notice of Change (ANOC)--using either its model or a nonmodel format--before the 2008 AEP. Among other things, GAO examined: (1) stakeholders' views of the model ANOC and CMS's efforts to assure its effectiveness, and (2) how the scheduling of the AEP affects the enrollment process for beneficiaries switching PDPs. Among the largest PDP sponsors, we selected eight to interview along with other stakeholders involved in the AEP. We also obtained and analyzed data from CMS.
Sponsors, pharmacists, beneficiary advocates, and counselors GAO interviewed expressed concern that CMS's model ANOC for the 2008 AEP did not effectively communicate drug plan changes to enrollees. They noted that it contained language at a reading level too high for some beneficiaries as well as too much, often irrelevant, information. To help ensure their enrollees understood how plan changes would affect them personally, two study sponsors mailed additional information detailing specific changes in coverage and costs for drugs the beneficiary took in the past year. Despite GAO's previous recommendation that CMS ensure that its Part D materials meet communications guidelines, CMS's process for developing its model ANOC did not include a systematic evaluation of its effectiveness. However, CMS officials reported that they recently initiated an evaluation of their annual Medicare beneficiary materials for the 2010 AEP that will examine reading levels, effectiveness, and length, among other factors. Such an evaluation is important in light of changes CMS has made for the 2009 AEP, which have raised further concerns among stakeholders. It is unclear whether alternative formats for communicating plan changes to beneficiaries will be considered. Although CMS and plan sponsors made improvements to the enrollment process, CMS data showed that about 15 percent of beneficiaries who chose to switch plans in the 2008 AEP were not fully enrolled in their new plan by January 1. Modifications to the enrollment process for the 2008 AEP reduced the time needed to enroll beneficiaries in a new plan to a median of 5 days. However, the volume of applications submitted late in the AEP contributed to beneficiaries being at risk of not having access to their new coverage by January 1. In fact, among the beneficiaries who submitted applications after December 15, 40 percent were not completely processed until after the effective date of their new coverage. As a result, stakeholders reported that beneficiaries, pharmacies, and sponsors faced various operational challenges, including the risk of inaccurate charges and additional administrative burden. Some stakeholders we interviewed for our study said that creating an interval for enrollment processing between the end of the AEP and the effective date of coverage would help ensure that beneficiaries switching plans would have their coverage in place on January 1.
Matter for Congressional Consideration
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act amended the schedule for the Part D annual election period.
Matter: To improve the Part D enrollment process, Congress may wish to consider authorizing the Secretary of HHS to amend the current AEP schedule to include a sufficient processing interval to fully enroll beneficiaries prior to the effective date of their new coverage.
Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: In its response to our request for follow-up, CMS reported that the recommendation in our report has been implemented. In addition, on June 1, 2011 CMS officials distributed a memo on the model marketing materials for 2012. In it they wrote of their important revisions to the ANOC template to improve communications. Notably, the agency created nine alternative ANOC templates to better accommodate the unique features of the various drug plans. CMS officials wrote that these templates incorporated comments from consumer advocacy groups, plan sponsors and health plan associations. They highlighted the use of plain language, the removal of three pages of duplicative information as well as minor changes in the presentation of cost information. According to CMS officials, the agency conducted two rounds of consumer testing and listening sessions with stakeholders and consumer advocates and condensed language in the new ANOC templates to ensure relevant content in each section. The agency reported that it will continue to evaluate existing communications for their effectiveness.
Recommendation: To ensure that beneficiaries are informed effectively of plan changes, the Acting Administrator of CMS should strengthen the agency's evaluation of the Annual Notice of Change-Evidence of Coverage (ANOC-EOC) by reviewing alternative formats that include personalized drug coverage and cost information.

I want to run a specific task in the background. This task takes few seconds to complete (it writes some GPS location data to a file). This task should run once every 1 hour.
As I understand from the SDK, I do not have a way to INITIATE something in the background unless I run Location Services forever. When this service runs, it gives me an event from time to time, and I'm able to run my code during these calls. I tried it, and even with the minimal precision possible, my battery goes down very quickly.
So, I'm looking for a way to run Location Services for few seconds every hour. All the rest of the time I do NOT want to run Location Services and I do NOT want to use the battery.
Can you help here please? Thanks,

When Launchpad was announced, anyone could translate into any variant of a language. This was a big mistake, as it sparked translations like the one you're seeing, when in most cases, only a general one is needed. For new products, you can't do this anymore, but we haven't removed the old country-specific translations, as it's hard to know which should be kept in the general translation.

Spicy Maple Walnuts
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 40 mins
I found this in an old Fine Cooking Magazine. The smell of these baking is phenomenal.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 6 slices fresh ginger, quarter-sized, halved
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄3 cup maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1⁄4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
- 1 lb walnut halves
- Preheat the over to 300°F.
- Combine all ingredients but walnuts in a saucepan and simmer over low heat for 2-3 minutes. Put the walnuts in a large bowl, pour on the glaze, and toss to coat.
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and spread the walnuts in a single layer. Bake 30-40 minutes, stirring and scooping up the glaze to cover the walnuts at least every 10 minutes.
- When walnuts look almost dry, they're done. Slide the walnuts, still on the foil, onto a wire rack and let them cool completely.
- You may want to pull out the ginger pieces.

Hands down, this was the favorite of the ladies in my Red Hat Society group when I made a few varieties to take with me. I think next time, I may use some brown sugar to up the sweet factor and possibly use pequin peppers for some heat.
Auntie Cookie, you are a genius. I made these tonight. I'm looking towards my holiday baskets. These were wonderful! I used all the ginger and didn't take it out, (couldn't see it!), and I figure it's a good eye-popper for those lucky ones who get it! I used parchment paper to bake these because I could just see myself with torn foil...UGH! I am not a big walnut fan, but these taste leafy and crisp...I really like them! Oh, by the way, I used the full amount of hot pepper sauce, (Tapatio, we don't care much for Tabasco), and next time I think I will use more, maybe twice more, for more kick. Great recipe, Aunt Cookie, a keeper and winner!

Skip to comments.ROUTE 66 Theme Song, by Nelson Riddle, a Jazzy Classic, Inspired by an American Car.
Posted on 01/29/2014 9:40:48 PM PST by lee martell
One of the first television theme songs that caught my attention as a kid in Catholic School, was Route 66, written and conducted by Nelson Riddle. Route 66 was on Friday nights on CBS from Oct. 7 1960 to March 20 1964. It was shot on location, and though the show got it's name from that famous highway, very few episodes were shot on that actual highway. The program starred Martin Milner as Tod Stiles, and for the first two seasons George Maharis as Buz Murdock. The show centered around the adventures of two young men who traveled across America in a Chevrolet Corvette sports car. Route 66 was a hybrid between episodic TV drama, which has continuing characters and situations, and the anthology format (i.e. Twilight Zone) in which each week's show has a completely different cast and story.
Route 66 had just three continuing characters, and no more than two of whom appeared in the same episode. Like Richard Kimble from The Fugitive, the wanderers would move from place to place, becoming entwined in the struggles and routines of the people in that town. Unlike Kimble, nothing was forcing the Route 66 guys to stay on the move except their own sense of adventure. This series helped set the tone of what an open ended format could be. Virtually any story could be incorporated. The original idea was said to involve two ex-army men who had left the service, and were looking to re-establish themselves in American life. Tod (Milner) was portrayed as clean cut, plainspoken, well educated and All American. Buz (Marharis) was based on a working class, loose, hip personality, close to the concept of the Beat Generation. Route 66 seems the epitome of perfect driving music, for when you're not in a hurry, but want to drive fast anyway, with all the windows down, and breezes blowing in. With this theme song, Nelson Riddle made the music speak. The song sounds like something I would think of and experience privately, from beginning to the end with it's splashy cresendoes, not like a bunch of noises coming out of some radio.
Love it.
Route 66
It was a great theme song...I remember it well, from my teen years.
Great show and great theme song. Still sounds good after all these years.
I like the Depeche Mode version...
Ironically, I just listened to the other "Route 66" by Asleep at the Wheel not 15 seconds before coming to this thread ;-)
And having just read Linda Ronstadt's book "Simple Dreams", where she speaks powerfully of her admiration for Nelson Riddle, I've listened to the Route 66 Theme a half dozen times in the last week. It's one I can listen to all day and never get tired of, just a terrific piece of music from one of the most talented arrangers and composers of our time.
Ahh memories, thanks man
I LOVE that piece of music! Makes me wish I could play piano.
Thanks for posting this!
striking use of stings. great arrangement.
oops. strings not stings.
Oh, I had assumed it was the Bobby Troupe "Route 66." My Bad.
I have the complete tv-series on dvd. Filmed on-location all across America, circa 1960-64. One of my all-time favorites. Great scripts, tons of great guest-stars. Incredible americana.
I am just going a little crazy listening to some stuff I haven't played in a while...
No Matter What Shape... - The T-Bones (1965)
The Ventures - Walk Don't Run
Santo & Johnny, Sleepwalk, 1959 (this gets played a LOT)
Including the final scene, in which Martin Milner is set to marry Jeannie!
Nice piece on Wikipedia:
Thanks for bringing up Linda Ronstadt. I forgive (most of)her liberal outbursts because of her delightful voice. Apparently, Nelson did not know of think much of Linda Ronstadt when he was first asked to work with her. One of his daughters did know Linda's work quite well, and said, 'Don't worry Dad, Linda is OK, her checks will not bounce. Nelson also arranged the production on Nat King Cole's Mona Lisa. That became a huge hit and led to many more sessions of studio work with Nat and Nelson Riddle.
Wow, looks like you've hit the jackpot of tunes!
Music and lyrics are credited to jazz drummer Bobby Troup (1946) -- also known as the Julie London's husband.
Route 66 is one timeless composition that deserves a place on the list of All-time Top 100 American Songs.
I made the same mistake, this is the theme to the TV series "Route 66", different song.
"The program starred Martin Milner as Tod Stiles..."
IMHO, Martin Milner is one of the more underrated actors of his era. He was excellent in both Route 66 and Adam-12, but he was also quite good in his early movie career. He turned in very solid performances in Sweet Smell of Success and Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, among others. Very talented guy.
While I am listening...
The Yardbirds - For Your Love
96 TEARS-— ? and The MYSTERIANS !
Woolly Bully-Sam The Sham & Pharaohs.
It is the Bobby Troupe "Route 66". Arrangement and orchestra conducted by Nelson Riddle -- who was pretty good at what he did, too. Frank, for example, would know...
I purchased the set about 5-6 years ago. Still pop one in every once in a while. Also picked up the complete DVD sets of 77 Sunset Strip, The Hawaiian Eye, (Oh Connie!!!!), Sea Hunt, M Squad and Surf Side 6 along the way. Great stuff!!
Mother Road ping.
Agree, Lee. She has a right to be a liberal if she wants to be, but to her credit Linda never (or seldom, at least) let her opinions interfere with her music, which appeals to all. Why any entertainer would intentionally alienate half or more of their potential audience is a mystery to me. I thought the book was very well written (by herself) and it's clear that she recognized the contributions of a wide array of musicians and music professionals, including Nelson Riddle who would rank among the top tier. Given the selfish narcissism of the industry in general, it was refreshing to hear her praise and respect people of quality with superb talent.
Of course, a singer probably couldn't go wrong by following the lead of the Chairman of the Board ;-)
Actually, I still even have my 20 off-air VHS videotape recordings of all the "Route 66" episodes from back when the series aired on Nick-at-Night in 1985-87! I was glad to retire them, when the official dvd-set was released.
"Route 66's" sister series, "Naked City" has also recently come out (complete, including the single half-hour season from 1958-59) in a big dvd-set.
Thank you for the info on Bobby Troup, the actual writer. I'll bet a lot of people make that mistake. So the composition has been around for quite a while, available for artistic interpretation.
Both Julie and Husband Bobby have that crisp, prim (and restrained) look of many British actors of that time.
Nurse Dixie was all the reason I needed to watch Emergency!
From Wikipedia:
Nelson Riddle was commissioned to write the instrumental theme when CBS decided to have a new song, rather than pay royalties for the Bobby Troup song "(Get Your Kicks on) Route 66." Riddle's theme, however, offers an unmistakable homage to the latter's piano solo (as originally recorded by Nat King Cole) throughout the number.
Bobby Troup hizzelf...
Manhattan Transfer, my personal favorite.
Asleep At The Wheel, a close second.
I caught the show in reruns as a teenager in the late '80s when it was on Nick at Nite. Haven't seen it anywhere else since.
Link at #2 above, is the theme from the TV series "Route 66" (1960-1964). . .

"Route 66 Theme" - by Nelson Riddle

Riddle's theme, however, offers an unmistakable homage to the latter's piano solo (as originally recorded by Nat King Cole) throughout the number.
Riddle's "Route 66 Theme" instrumental was one of the first television themes to make Billboard magazine's Top 30, following Ray Anthony's "Dragnet Theme" (in 1953) and Henry Mancini's "Mr. Lucky Theme" (in 1960). The song earned two Grammy nominations in 1962.
Thanx Robwin :-)
Route 66, Naked City, Emergency can be seen on MeTV these days.
(by the way, if you were using the <p> code for line spaces, it would have prevented the links from being clickable...if you just use the return key for line spaces and eliminate any HTML code, then the FR software should make the URLs clickable automatically)
Thanks! That was well done.
IIRC she also did Marlboro commmercials...and she was SMOKIN'...LOL
Here's another oldie but goodie...great instrumental.. "Telstar"...The Tornados
Youtube is in one of it's selfish and contrary moods, wont allow me to see the video now. I'll try again tomorrow, maybe the Youtube Goblins will be napping then.
BTW..a few weeks ago..I posted a thread on "One Hit Wonders"..with some great links..we had a lot of posts to it..more good stuff..don't know if you saw it...I wanted to ping you to it...tried SEARCH..but can't find it..it's cranky for me...see if you can find it..
three summers ago my family left South Florida.
Drove the R.V. to Chicago's Art Museum where across the street is the start to Route 66.
We drove the "Mother Road", all the way to the end, The Santa Monica Pier where I use to hang out as a kid.
Most wonderful time was had by all.
Always wanted to do that. Take the few loops and abandoned sections that aren't part of the expressway system now.
No one mentions George Maharis.
IIRC he was caught in a bus station bathroom. You can guess the rest.
Don't recall him in any other show.
In today's environment he'd be a superstar.
Did that several years ago when I flew to Phoenix to purchase a car and drove it back largely via old 66. Awesome trip - just wish I had taken more time....

Lovely little stay.
Mike and Alison were great hosts. We were able to check in early and out room was ready for us. The room was well equipped with tea/ coffee making facilities, a tv, great view of the garden and an ensure. A little on the small side but had everything we needed. The garden at night is spectacular. Both hosts made us feel welcome, giving us directions and advice on where to go and what the traffic would be like. All in all a very pleasent stay with a good hearty breakfast in the morning.

Terrebonne port gets second tenant
Published: Sunday, May 15, 2005 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, May 14, 2005 at 10:52 p.m.
HOUMA -- The signing of North American Fabricators as a second tenant for the Port of Terrebonne is a good indicator the company will be expanding its workforce over coming months, according to company officials.
Construction has already started on a parking lot on property that North American Fabrications, a division of Edison Chouest Offshore, has leased from the port for $20,800 per year.
The new parking lot, which is being built across North American Court Road from the company, will free the current parking lot next to North American facilities for company expansion, said Lonnie Thibodeaux, director of communications for Edison Chouest Offshore.
The company isn't ready to say exactly what the expansion will be, but it is likely to increase North American's workforce, Thibodeaux said.
"It would be difficult to put a number on a workforce increase, but one could surmise that there will be a workforce increase," he said.
North American Fabricators employs about 300 in the area, according to Thibodeaux.
Edison Chouest Offshore is in an aggressive shipbuilding period, Thibodeaux said.
"We have over a dozen vessels being constructed in all our facilities and we have options for a dozen more this year so far," he said.
The sight of new construction at the port is a good indicator of things to come, said port officials.
"What this is going to do is generate more interest in the port. Seeing building here is going to make other industry feel more comfortable about leasing property here," said Joey Cehan, Terrebonne Port Commission president.
Thoma-Sea Boat Builders, a Houma-based company that specializes in tugboats, became the port's first tenant in January. It is leasing 9.26 acres for $36,000 per year.
Port Director Ed Watson said that Thoma-Sea should have facilities completed by the end of the year and is expected to create about 50 jobs at the port location.
Watson said signing a first tenant to a leasing contract was a big first step that has opened up the door for new tenants, like North American Fabricators.
"The second one was easier than the first and I expect that they will get easier after this, " he said.
"I see the future of the port as bringing many jobs to Terrebonne Parish. We have two tenants on board already and there will be more," Cehan said.
The Port of Terrebonne, which Watson said reduced its operating cost from $286,000 in 2003 to an estimated $126,000 in 2005, is paid for by Terrebonne Parish government.
Watson hopes that the port can become self-supporting as it adds new tenants.
"The port is going to live up to its mission statement ëTo become the economic catalyst and hub of marine transportation for the area,' " Watson said.
Thibodeaux said that he looks forward to a good relationship with officials with the Port of Terrebonne.
"I am happy to be working with Mr. Watson and the port. They have been good neighbors for many years."

College News
The work of Wegmans School of Pharmacy faculty Dr. Jennifer Mathews, Associate Professor; Dr. Rich O'Brocta, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs; and Dr. Jane Souza, Assistant Dean for Assessment and Acting Chair, Department of Pharmacy Practice & Administration; has won a 2013 Award for Excellence in Assessment from the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP). They will present their work at the association's annual meeting, which takes place July 13-17 in Chicago.
Mathews, O'Brocta, and Souza focused on existing test data to document curriculum coverage and track student performance on curricular outcomes. After a pilot program, and a series of faculty development sessions on writing quality exam questions and coding them appropriately, the school began coding all test items at several levels for a full academic year. The results included data that provided information at the macro level to inform depth and density of curriculum coverage; at the course level to assess teaching effectiveness, to align course goals with programmatic goals, and to analyze the quality of test items; and at the student level to identify areas of strength and opportunities for improvement.
Souza has also been named chair-elect for the AACP Assessment Special Interest Group, and will be installed at the meeting.
The AACP Annual Meeting is the largest gathering of academic pharmacy administrators, faculty, and staff, and each year offers 70 or more educational programs that cut across all disciplines.

On streetcars, utilities and transit innovation
Yesterday's Public Service Commission ruling – which is part of a battle that pits city versus state – seems counterproductive to building more usable and connected transit system. In case you missed it, the decision basically said that utilities, which use publicly financed roads for free (as we all do), should be given different treatment for Milwaukee-based improvements like the streetcar. You can read more about it and form your own opinion here.
The City Attorney's office offered this response later in the day:
"We disagree With the Public Service Commission's decision today on the Milwaukee Streetcar matter and will recommend an appeal. As the City has argued, the issue of Who pays the utilities' relocation or modication costs associated With the construction of the Streetcar is an issue for the Circuit Court, not the Commission, to decide. The utilities' obligation to relocate or modify their facilities at their expense is derived from state law, not a municipal regulation that the Commission may invalidate. Therefore, the Commission's decision does not end the controversy over Whether the utilities must pay the costs they might incur to modify or relocate their own facilities so as not to obstruct the public's use of the public right-of-way."
This "issue" isn't about whether there should be modern transportation in our state's largest city. Milwaukee's elected officials, Downtown leaders, businesses, transit riders, citizens and visitors have decided there should be. The question at hand is who should pay to move the underground utilities.
Yesterday, We Energies and AT&T seem to have won a good deal that helps control their costs. No matter where this ends, I'd like to see We Energies step up and make this project a priority. As a rate payer, Downtown property owner and concerned civic mind, I think they need to work with the city to get the engineering done ... quickly. And everyone should be reasonable in determining the costs. So, how about it?
Let's move modern transit to the top of everyone's list, including We Energies. They have a chance here to be a true leader in helping to build a better Downtown. For the utility company, this is for the good of the whole community, including their customers and investors, who will sell electricity to the streetcar and – yes – make money from it.
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett put it this way, "In order to drive the costs down further, we expect even more cooperation from the utility companies than we have had to date."
As for the streetcar project's momentum, just last week the City of Milwaukee received a $3.18 million grant, approved by federal transportation officials, the regional planning body and officials from the Wisconsin Departments of Transportation and Natural Resources that helps continue to move the project forward.
For the benefit of Wisconsin and visitors to our fine state, Milwaukee's moving forward with a streetcar. In addition, the Downtown trolley is back this summer and other options like Uber Black and Lyft are here now, too. Cars are great. Options are good; they all work well together.
As I've written before, transportation isn't a Republican or Democratic or city or state issue; it's a simple, quality-of-life measure. And, it's about innovation and improvement in our community.
TomD | April 28, 2014 at 9:07 a.m. (report)
mlaskin, nobody (including the Mayor) says people should park downtown, and then take the streetcar AND bus. What we are saying is that people who are ALREADY downtown (at work, staying in a hotel, living there, or driving in from the 'burbs) who need to travel WITHIN downtown can use it. Additionally, people who can't find reasonably priced parking near their downtown destination could park elsewhere and take the streetcar ($2 round trip, $1 if 65+) to their destination.
Those destinations DO include a university (MSOE), the lakefront (at Brady), and attractions (Bradley Center, Arena, Convention Center, Public Museum, Third Ward, Pabst Theater, Cathedral Square, etc).

Milwaukee is not inventing the streetcar; we are late to this modern technology. It works in other cities that have given the streetcar decades of thought and continue to add rail.
What is novel is that WE Energies seems to be stuck in some kind of obsession with promoting fossil fuel gulping cars as the mode of operation downtown, when their mission is to sell electricity and, with new customers like the streetcar, keep our rates down

I agree. A streetcar that goes nowhere. Barrett said people could pay to park downtown, pay to get on the streetcar and then pay to ride a bus to get where they need to from where the street car left you off. Its route services nothing, none of the Universities, no attractions, no Lakefront. What is the use of it?

Campus Quality:
The General Studies program at Columbia University was established in 1947 to support students who had had a break in their education, focused mainly around men who had been drafted during World War II. The school has opened up more and accepts many students classified as non-traditional. This program has provided many people with second chances at their education and first chance at one of the most well known colleges in the country. The program even continues the tradition of those who have served in the military, holding a Veteran population of over 400. General Studies students typically do very well at the school and professors enjoy the life experiences and insight brought into the classroom. It truly is a unique and incredible opportunity for many.
Campus Quality:
The athletic center on campus is relatively small, but the space available is utilized well. The main athletic facilities for sport teams is located off campus. There are so many libraries on campus I'm not even sure of the number. All libraries provide a different atmosphere and are therefore filtered through by students frequently. Different atmospheres are typically preferred according to the subject being studied and the libraries provide excellent options. There is plenty of well maintained lawn space for students to lounge out on. It creates the illusion of not being in a big city while escaping the classrooms. Overall, student life is, in my opinion, above average. An excellent school that provides so much to their students.
Off-Campus Dining:
You can find any food type you desire in New York City, typically not far from wherever you are. Around campus there are food types ranging from just a slice of pizza to Ethiopian Cuisine. If someone is unable to find something good to eat, they just haven't looked.
There are no athletic scholarships offered at my school. All athletic participants do so voluntarily in addition to their academics. Therefore, it's a big deal when a team does well, but heavy emphasis is rarely placed on any sporting event. I mentioned the athletic facilities are relatively subpar, I speak only of the weight room for Columbia. That being said, the campus is in northern Manhattan where there is not much space. The gym is underground and they do a good job utilizing the space to the most efficient way possible.
Overall Experience:
Having served for six years in the Navy's Submarine Force, I was accepted as a non-traditional student to Columbia University's General Studies program. I was nervous starting college at 24, having had such a long break between High School graduation and starting college, but the University is incredibly welcoming and bends over backwards to make sure of student success. I understand it's a smaller college, but the Advisors in all categories seem to legitimately care for the students and do whatever they can to ensure a quick and successful graduation. Even the landscapers are welcoming, always smiling and wishing everyone good days while doing phenomenal jobs keeping the campus beautiful.
Greek Life:
I have never noticed my school presenting favoritism nor heavy annoyance toward any group of students, no matter how they classify themselves. In fact, pride and desire for the school to see the range of cultures on campus is high, so representation of whatever your culture or life-style is is strongly encouraged.
Great public transport, but expensive. Taxis are no better.
I wish I got money.
It's exactly what you came here for. World-class academics.
The Engineering program is very challenging and competitive. The professors are interactive and provide guidance.
No issues if you follow the guidelines.
Off-Campus Housing:
Not sure of the options available.
Campus Housing:
No air condition. Could be a challenge when the weather is warm.
NY has different seasons. Limited outside activities during winter months.
Ability to print assignments. I use my own computer.
Guys & Girls:
Students are highly focused and competitive. There is a wide range of interest from the arts to sports. Dress code is relaxed.
Drug Safety:
I do not notice students taking drugs.
Off-Campus Dining:
You can go to the diner or pick up pizza
Students focus on academics and not sports.
Greek Life:
I currently do not participate.
Having an internship during the school year is extremely challenging. You are required a great deal of hours to prepare for class and exams.
My career goals are studying Civil Engineering with a minor in biological science. My concerns on finding a job in my field is having relevant experience that can add to my resume. I will be required to attend summer school to minor in science, which will limit my opportunities with summer employment.
City parking is limited. Most students do no have cars. Mass transit is available.
Local Area:
There are numerous attractions available from night light to museums.
Party Scene:
Bars, clubs, parties, everywhere. It's New York!
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Columbia has a unique culture and school spirit. The intense workload and level of academic rigor bring students together in a culture of cozy complaint. Columbians constantly whine about their amount of work, but they also find a way to come together and persevere, and friendships are formed in this shared struggle.
Columbia is not for the faint of heart or those who need their hand to be held every step of the way through their college career. If you need help and seek it out, you will find it. But no one is going to sit down and explain everything to you, and Columbia can be pretty intimidating for that reason. However, this means that students are given the opportunity from the get-go to be independent and to decide for themselves what their college experience will mean for them. Columbia provides amazing resources and can help you achieve just about anything, or will at the very least encourage you to pursue whatever it is you want. The academics are amazing, and the Core Curriculum gives students a shared knowledge of Western thought, which is hugely influential in the way students will approach academics, careers, and life in general. The Columbia experience is an incredible one, and any student lucky enough to get in should definitely take advantage of such a wonderful, rare opportunity!

Smoke detectors are generally used for the early detection of fires. Optical fire detectors are among the most frequently used detectors in the field of fire detection. They can be designed as transmitted-light detectors or as scattered-light detectors. Smoke detectors based on the scattered-radiation principle detect smoke particles by measuring radiation scattered on these smoke particles. The response characteristic, i.e. the sensitivity of all optical smoke detectors, is strongly dependent on the type of fire. The amount, the nature and the composition of the smoke produced by the fire play a large role for the sensitivity of the smoke detector. Fires with low smoke production cannot be detected as well as fires in which a great deal of smoke is produced. In addition, scattered-light smoke detectors have to rely on the circumstance that light will be reflected on the smoke particles. To achieve a more uniform response characteristic of fire detectors, optical smoke detectors can be combined with detectors based on other principles. For example, ionization smoke detectors or temperature detectors are known. These different types of fire detectors can be mounted at different locations in an area, or can even be integrated in a single detector.
Such combinations of optical smoke detectors with temperature detectors or ionization smoke detectors are known. In addition to an increase in temperature and the development of smoke, the appearance of gaseous combustion products is a further significant feature for fire detection. These combustion products can be detected by various types of gas sensors. An object of the present invention is to provide a fire detector which can reliably detect various types of fires, with and without smoke production.
The fire detector of the present invention offers the advantage that the combination of two different sensor methods permits more reliable fire detection than is the case with conventional smoke or fire detectors. Thus, a generally known scattered-light receiver for detecting smoke is combined with at least one further optical receiver which, due to the interposition of a gas-sensitive layer, reacts to specific constituents in the air which typically develop during the combustion. By using a shared light source as optical transmitter, the fire detector can have a very compact and space-saving design. The signal processing of a downstream evaluation unit is also simplified. Furthermore, it is generally sufficient to provide only one such fire detector per area, if the area does not exceed a certain size, instead of several smoke detectors operating on different measuring principles, which considerably simplifies installation and cabling. Additionally, the optical receivers located in the direct radiation range of the optical transmitter can act as transmitted-light smoke detectors, and are thus able to register brightness variations because of aerosols present in the air. This is advantageously permitted by an evaluation unit which is connected downstream of the optical receiver and which evaluates fluctuations of the electrical signal because of fluctuations in the brightness of the received light signal. In so doing, known methods such as modulated measurement or lock-in technique are used.
FIG. 1 shows an arrangement of a gas-sensitive layer between an optical transmitter and an optical receiver.
FIG. 2 shows an absorption spectrum of a layer sensitive to NO or NO2.
FIG. 3 shows a measuring arrangement with a gas-sensitive layer on the optical receiver.
FIG. 4 shows a design of a combined fire detector.
FIG. 1 shows an exemplary measuring arrangement including an optical transmitter 2 such as an infrared light-emitting diode, and an optical receiver 4, e.g., a photodiode, which is sensitive to infrared light. Such components permit small, compact and inexpensive fire detectors which, in addition, operate with very little energy. However, optical transmitters 2 and receivers 4 which function with light in the visible wavelength range can also be used just as well. The tuning between the wavelength of the light emitted by optical transmitter 2 and the absorbed wavelength of a gas-sensitive layer 6, described in the following, is decisive for the functioning of the measuring arrangement. Located between optical transmitter 2 and optical receiver 4, which is mounted at a certain distance in direct ray path 8 of the transmitter, is a layer 6 which is permeable for the radiation of optical transmitter 2 and is made, for example, from a carrier of polymer material which is provided with a specific gas-sensitive coating. This layer 6, permeable for the light emitted by optical transmitter 2, can be situated precisely in the middle between optical transmitter 2 and optical receiver 4, but it is equally possible to arrange it at any position between optical transmitter 2 and optical receiver 4, provided it is located in ray path 8. In response to interaction with certain gases, generally known gas-sensitive layer 6 is able to partially absorb a light of specific wavelength emitted by optical transmitter 2. Gas-sensitive layer 6 contains an indicator substance which is sensitive to a specific gas and is calibrated by previous calibration measurements prior to installation. As soon as the gas to be detected enters into the area between optical transmitter 2 and optical receiver 4, the indicator substance contained in layer 6 changes its absorption for specific wavelength ranges of the electromagnetic radiation striking it. Since this wavelength corresponds to a local absorption maximum of the indicator substance, optical receiver 4 arranged downstream of layer 6 registers an altered transmission. The level of the absorption maximum, and thus the magnitude of the transmission are proportional to the concentration of the gas. This can be determined by an evaluation unit 100 as shown by way of example in FIG. 4, and, given an application as smoke detector, can be connected to a signal generator.
FIG. 2 shows, by way of example, a diagram of a correlation between the wavelength and the absorption of light of a gas-sensitive layer in response to different concentrations of a gas mixture coming into contact with the gas-sensitive layer. Wavelength λ of the light emitted by the optical transmitter is plotted in nanometers (nm) on horizontal axis 16 of the diagram. A relative absorption value which, given complete absorption, would assume a value of 1.0, is plotted on vertical axis 14. For example, in FIG. 2, the gas-sensitive layer is a layer sensitive to NO and/or NO2. It is discernible that at a specific light wavelength, at approximately 670 nm in the example shown, the absorption of light exhibits a perceptible maximum in response to rising NO concentration. Several curves 11 are plotted whose maximum increases in each case in response to rising NO concentration. This increase is indicated by an upward-pointing arrow 12. The sensor effect, i.e. the absorption or transmission changes, can generally be established in relatively narrow wavelength ranges for the gas-sensitive layers used. Certain polymers which are largely chemically inert are suitable as carriers for such gas-sensitive layers, thus ensuring that only the indicator substance interacts with the gas. This indicator substance is applied onto the polymer and exhibits an interaction with certain gases. Furthermore, this measuring method makes it possible to provide a plurality of optical receivers, each having different gas-sensitive layers, and in this way to present combined smoke detectors which function in response to a multitude of different gases.
FIG. 3 shows an alternative measuring arrangement in which a gas-sensitive layer 10 is applied directly on optical receiver 4, a light-sensitive photodiode in the exemplary embodiment shown. The same parts as in the preceding figures are provided with the same reference numerals and are not explained again. Such a measuring arrangement has the advantage that, with these means, very compact smoke or combustion-gas detectors can be presented. To detect various gaseous combustion products, a plurality of optical receivers 4 can have layers 10, each sensitive to different gases. They can all be arranged in ray path 8 of optical transmitter 2 at a specific distance from said sensor, and are therefore able to supply various characteristic absorption signals for various combustion gases to an evaluation unit, not shown here.
Finally, FIG. 4 shows a design of a combined fire detector 1 which, in addition to an optical transmitter 2, has an optical receiver 28 functioning as a scattered-light sensor and at least one optical receiver 4 functioning as a gas sensor. The same parts as in the previous figures are provided with the same reference numerals and are not explained again. Because of the utilized wavelength range of the light emitted by optical transmitter 2, a shared light source, here, for example, an infrared light-emitting diode, can be used for both detection methods. Fire detector 1 is composed essentially of a chamber 32 which is designed in such a way that no light, or only little light can penetrate from the outside, and at the same time smoke and gaseous combustion products have the greatest possible unhindered access. As is customary in the case of scattered-light detectors, this can be implemented in the form of an optical labyrinth, not shown here. Set into the wall are a plurality of accommodations 34, 36, 38, closed to the outside, for optical transmitter 2 and optical receivers 4, 28. Chamber 32 is open toward at least one end face, so that sensors are in contact with the atmosphere in the chamber and combustion gases or smoke contained therein. The outer wall of chamber 32 is made preferably of material impervious to light, so that no false influences due to incident scattered light can occur during the measurements. Accommodations 34, 36, 38 for optical transmitter 2 and optical receivers 4, 28 are preferably so deep that optical transmitter 2 is only able to radiate with a narrow light-exit cone, and further so deep that no scattered light falling into the end faces of chamber 32 can impinge upon optical receivers 4, 28. Optical axis 8 of the light-exit cone of optical transmitter 2 is preferably disposed at an oblique angle of, for example, 45� to the longitudinal axis of chamber 32. Optical receiver 28 for the scattered-light sensor, here, for example, a photodiode, is preferably so arranged that it does not lie in the direct radiation range 8 of optical transmitter 2, and therefore can only receive scattered light. Thus, an optical axis 30 of optical receiver 28 can likewise be disposed at an angle of, e.g., 45� to the longitudinal axis of tube 32, so that optical axes 8 and 30 intersect at a specific point on the longitudinal axis of tube 32 at an angle of, for example, 900. Therefore, optical receiver 28 functions in conjunction with optical transmitter 2 like a conventional scattered-light smoke detector. At least one further optical receiver 4 is disposed in a further accommodation 36 whose longitudinal extension is aligned in the same direction as accommodation 34 for optical transmitter 2. Consequently, optical receiver 4 lies in the direct radiation range of optical transmitter 2, and is therefore preferably suited for detecting combustion gases which are not detectable for the scattered-light sensor. For this purpose, a carrier having a gas-sensitive layer 18 for absorbing specific light components as a function of gas concentrations contained in the air is placed in front of optical receiver 4. To concentrate the light received by optical receivers 4, 28, convergent lenses 22, 24 are preferably interposed in advance of said receivers and focus the light falling into accommodations 36, 38 exactly onto the light-sensitive point of optical receivers 4, 28. A plurality of optical receivers 4, each having different gas-sensitive layers placed in front of them, can be provided in a fire detector 1. This makes it possible to detect various gaseous combustion products. In certain fire situations where no gases develop to which the gas-sensitive layers could respond, the scattered-light sensor is nevertheless able to trigger an alarm.
As a further function possibility of the fire detector, the subduing of light by aerosols contained in the combustion air can be measured and drawn upon as an alarm criterion. Given constant brightness of the light radiated by optical transmitter 2, the electrical signal emitted by optical receiver 4 is likewise constant. In response to a lessening of brightness due to aerosols contained in the air to which gas-sensitive layer 18 does not respond by a partial absorption, the signal emitted by optical receiver 4 nevertheless becomes weaker, which can be evaluated as a further criterion for a possible fire.

Does your business need trustworthy and reliable employees? You may not have to look any further than across the dinner table.
Strategy: Hire your spouse to work for your company as an official employee. Why put your spouse on the payroll? Because you can gain six tax benefits:
1. Build up tax-favored funds for retirement
If you meet the tax-law requirements, your company can deduct contributions made to a qualified retirement plan on your spouse's behalf. The annual limits are quite generous. For instance, if your company has a defined contribution plan, you can deduct contributions up to 25% of compensation or $45,000, whichever is less, for 2007. The contributions accumulate tax deferred until withdrawn.
With a 401(k) plan, another dollar limit applies: Your spouse can defer up to $15,500 to the plan in 2007 (plus an extra $5,000 if he or she is age 50 or older). Your company can match those contributions who...(register to read more)

p70 Ribosomal Protein S6 Kinase (p70S6K) is a 70 kDa member of the ribosomal S6 kinase (RSK) family of serine/threonine kinases. It is predominantly localized in the cytoplasm, and is essential in growth factors regulated cell proliferation, pathways involving cell motility, such as metastases, the immune response, and tissue repair. p70S6K acts downstream of phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase, and its main physiological target is the S6 ribosomal protein, which is involved in upregulation of protein synthesis.

With increasing sophistication in lifestyles, a lot of electronic gadgets have been developed and introduced into the market. Spice grinders are among them. In fact a lot of them run on electricity making them a lot easier to use. From coffee beans to corn, grains, nuts, salt and pepper, you name it, and they can be ground using this machine. Owing to the benefits associated with their usage and a growing demand among customers, different models of spice grinders have been introduced into the market.
In past times people used hand grinders for grinding different spices that were going into their cooking. However with changing times this trend changed and hand grinders were soon dominated by electric ones. In fact this switching over to electric grinders has led to the design and introduction of a variety of grinders into the market. It is due to this growing demand for grinders that various models differing in shape, size and color are being offered. Each of these models is unique in itself and suitable to the diverse needs of users. But the real challenge lies in choosing the best model for your own needs.
A few simple steps which will simplify your selection process are:
1. Kind of usage: Your choice of grinder purchase is influenced by your usage level and the kind of spices you want to grind. For instance, in case you will be grinding hard items like nuts, you should go for heavy duty grinders.
2. In case you are cost conscious and wish to keep your electricity bills under control you might want to go for hand grinders.
3. Your choice of spice grinders is also influenced by the amount of money you wish to invest. Grinder prices range from $10 to $150. While the expensive ones are capable of performing multiple functions, grinders priced low are limited in their functionality.
4. With grinders available in so many colors, models and sizes, you can always pick one that goes well with your home decor.
Just like any other electrical appliance, grinders can also be purchased directly from one of many stores or online. Although every grinder has its own set of benefits and drawbacks, always pick one that is suitable for you. The only drawback associated with the use of these grinders is in cleaning. Cleaning is quite cumbersome as the machine could get ruined if water enters its motor.
Although manual grinders are priced low, the benefits you derive from the purchase of electrical grinders far outweigh the manual ones. These simple tips when used can help you choose the best grinder for your own needs.

Updating the Electro-Acoustic System of the "Burgtheater"
In combination with a proscenium redesign of the Burgtheater and its electroacoustic system will be updated. Present acoustic properties have been determined for the system design and for further modifications of the auditorium. Measurement results proved the subjective audible acoustic defects in certain seating areas. Based on the measurements, a concept and specification of the new electroacoustic system was developed. The first step is scheduled for the summer of 1984.
