The American Hospital Association (AHA) submitted a letter to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) on April 17, 2014, recommending modifications to the Medicare Shared Savings Program (MSSP) and the Pioneer ACO program to make both of these programs more attractive to hospitals and health systems.
The AHA letter begins by noting that hospitals and health systems are committed to accountable care. There has been widespread participation in the MSSP and the Pioneer ACO program; even more hospitals and health systems are testing their readiness for accountable care structures in commercial relationships with health plans.
Despite this high level of interest, the AHA expressed concerns about aspects of the design and structure of the Medicare ACO programs that it believes will limit participation in the Pioneer ACO program and the MSSP and will lead to unsustainable programs. The AHA finds support for its position in the initial results on the performance in those ACO Models, which showed nine of 32 Pioneer ACO participants withdrawing after the initial year and which showed that less than 30% of the MSSP participants received any share of savings with respect to the initial performance year.
With respect to the Pioneer ACO model, the AHA recommended the following modifications to encourage broader participation and to lead to operational viability:
The AHA also noted a number of issues with the MSSP that it believes need to be addressed to encourage increased and sustained participation of hospitals and health systems in the MSSP. Generally, the recommendations suggest modifications to provide better information designed to allow more focused care coordination and to permit a greater ability to earn a share of savings and assume less risk. The AHA noted:
With two relatively new ACO programs, it is not surprising that there are a variety of recommendations proposed to help ensure continued hospital interest, increased participation over time and sustainability of the Pioneer ACO program and MSSP. Many have suggested from the start of the ACO programs that their structure created issues for their long-term success as a viable and sustained tool improving accountability. The AHA's letter highlights a number of key points for consideration.
As CMS reviews the performance results under these programs, we hope CMS will keep an open mind and make adjustments to improve the ACO programs to address identified problems. Adjustments, such as those suggested by the AHA, can be productive in development of sustainable and valuable programs.

Julius von Bismarck designed a device called the Image Fulgurator that senses when the flash of other people's cameras goes off. It then projects an image or message onto the photographs these people are taking. Could such a device be used for guerrilla marketing tactics? Absolutely, but ideally only to project the name of your fiercest competitor onto the photos. After all I am quite sure that this would create some serious hate for whoever "killed" that precious image. :-)

Workers who have osteoarthritis symptoms face extra stress in the workplace. Depending on the joint or joints affected, it may become difficult to effectively do your job or perform at the level you did prior to developing osteoarthritis.

Are You Doing Your Best Work?

In an effort to try to solve workplace stress, you need to ask yourself some tough questions:

Can you still do your job?

Is your productivity affected by having osteoarthritis?

Does it take you significantly longer to complete a task?

Are parts of your job still manageable while other parts have become unmanageable?

Are you drained after work, with no energy left for anything else?

Answering those questions should help you develop a vision for what you need to do to improve your situation.

Assessing Your Work Situation

The first thing you need to do is assess what interferes with you doing your job. Is it pain? Is it decreased physical function? Is it fatigue?

If you are answering yes to those questions, can you think of solutions? Is your pain well-controlled or are you getting unsatisfactory pain relief? It may be time to discuss your problems and workplace stress with your doctor. Maybe there are treatment options which you have yet to try.

Are there changes you can make with regard to how you do your work? Is it possible to pace yourself, plan your workload better, or take some work home? Is it possible to conserve energy: can you sit part of the time if your job has you standing most of the day or vice versa?

Would it help to talk about options with your employer? Have you considered asking for a later start time, flex schedule, part-time shift instead of full-time? Is there a light-duty job available which may suit you?

Have you talked to your co-workers? Have you been honest with co-workers about your work difficulties? Can they help you without imposing on them too much?

Are there simple, common sense solutions that you are overlooking? Are you sufficiently protecting your joints at work, wearing comfortable shoes, working in an ergonomic office set-up?

Have you checked ADA regulations to see if there is any help for you there?

Note from Carol: Prior to becoming a writer, I worked in a hospital laboratory. During my career, as arthritis made working more difficult, I had to make many adjustments. Each adjustment I made, allowed me to keep working longer. I requested and was granted a later start time. My boss and co-workers were made aware of my limitations and on their own initiative, they became willing to help when needed. Eventually I had to ask for a shorter work week, working three days a week instead of five. I worked it out for as long as I could. Making changes will help you do it too. Workplace stress will decrease and you will feel good about working again. Work it out! Ask yourself what will keep you working longer.

Call (888) 651-9785
Airport to Gold Coast and return. Both trips the bus was on time and the ride was smooth, what more could be asked for?
Very cheap transportation and very reliable. Will recommend to my friends and family.
Very convenient way of transport.
On time and very helpful with the bags! I would use this service again.
driver was prompt, actually earlier than designated pick up time, very friendly.Great service, will use again and is highly recommended
Driver was very knowledgeable and recoomended server great acitivites to do
Hardly a tour. Just a hotel to airport transfer,by Con-X-ions. It gets 5 stars, because the pick up was on time, the young driver was polite, and we got to BNE with plenty of time to spare. What's more, he had a classical radio station on the shuttle's radio, playing Sibelius. May be not everyone's sheet of music, but just right for me at 9.30 in the evening!
On time and friendly driver. Quick, easy and well priced. Recommended.
Efficient check in, friendly and helpful driver, arrived at hotel in quick time.
Right on time
On time and as advised.
Driver arrived punctually excellent service with loading and unloading bags. Thanks for the tips about accessing the departure area of international terminal. Value for money
Pauline New Zealand
Wait outside 10 mins for the next shuttle to arrive,fast trip to our hotel,would book it again no hassles,very courteous bus driver.
Arrived at hotel on time, friendly driver. Highly recommend.
Very convenient and the driver is very friendly
Great service, on time and driver very helpful... Will use service again
Easy to find at airport. No hassle arrival at hotel.
Fantastic!! Driver was on time which made getting to the airport a breeze. Have recommended to family and friends. Will definately use this service again.
This is an excellent service, driver was punctual , very professional and delivered us to Brisbane in ample time for our flight. I would not hesitate to recommend this service to other travellers.
Thank you once again.
Thank you for a convenient and reliable service. We used this service to and from airport to hotel. Both drivers were friendly and grabbed our bags and loaded them for us. I will definitely use this service again.
Did not have a pick up time and missed the original pick up by seconds. Watched the bus drive away as we were trying to cross the street. Rang the Viator office and a very helpful receptionist/office person organized another bus to swing by and pick my wife and I up. Bus driver was still friendly even though he had to go out of his way, (I think) and we were able to catch our plane on time. Would be helpful to have a timetable/schedule given as part of the booking.
Picked up exactly on time by a very pleasant driver
Driver was prompt and journey was uneventful.
very prompt pickup and made airport comfortably for my flight, will definitely use again and also recommend
Fair value, good service, we'll use it again.
Lovely driver. Very pleasant trip to Airport

Honey Boo Boo and the end of civilization
The Watcher has never been one of those hell-in-a-handbasket types, especially where television is concerned. On the whole, things are getting better, not worse, but every once in awhile a show comes along to give me pause.
The latest: "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo."
And it's not the show itself that sets me off, although even by the low standards of most reality shows, it's horrible. What bothers me is how popular the new series is. A spinoff of the indefensible "Toddlers & Tiaras," "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" debuted Wednesday night as the No. 2 cable series of the evening. TLC aired two episodes, and each drew more than 2 million viewers. That ranked behind only TNT's "Dallas" on cable (We can wonder about those ratings, too, but that's another story.) and even outdid some broadcast shows.
So who is this Honey Boo Boo whom America is tuning in to see? Her real name is Alana Thompson, and she is 6 years old. We first got to know her and her mother, June, as regulars on "Toddlers & Tiaras," the show that holds the child-beauty-pageant world up for weekly ridicule.
The Thompson family apparently didn't get enough abuse as part-time players, so chose to trade their entire family's dignity for fame and money. (Not that the Watcher wouldn't make the same choice.) "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" treats the Thompson clan and their friends as unapologetic rednecks: uncouth, uneducated, unintelligent and unashamed of it.
Of course, we have enjoyed dullards as comic foils for years. But what separates "Honey Boo Boo" from, say, "The Simpsons" or "Beavis & Butt-head" is that it lacks satirical bite. Homer Simpson's stupidity serves as a fun-house mirror on American society. "Honey Boo Boo" just serves up dumb on a platter and asks us to laugh out of a sense of superiority.
I have no problem with the Thompsons. Hey, if you can make money being yourselves on television, take it. But wasting your time watching the Thompsons? That I have a problem with.

AT&T Partners with Philips, TicTrac on Health IT
Users can opt into content streams, programs, challenges and wellness services that further tailor the experience on the ForHealth platform.AT&T announced the debut of ForHealth, a free wellness and fitness platform that it has developed with Tictrac to engage people in their health and well-being. The platform aggregates data from different apps and devices and provides users with actionable personal insights and correlations to improve their health. "As companies continue to develop a variety of wellness and fitness applications, wearables and devices, we see an opportunity for helping customers make sense of their data," Stephen Burger, an AT&T area vice president told eWEEK. "The bottom line is that consumers are more and more interested in self-managing their wellness. Technology obviously plays a key role here." For example, the ForHealth platform can analyze sleep and exercise patterns and tell the user if they should run farther on days they've slept more than six hours.
"We created ForHealth – a free wellness and fitness platform – to help engage people in their health and wellbeing. We expect that the app will be available sometime in the second quarter of 2015," Burger said. "What good is all of that data if you can't make sense of it? We expect continued growth in health-based applications, and empowering users to manage their own data will help accelerate that trend."

This review is from: Logitech V20 2 Watts (1W + 1W) into 4 ohms at 1 kHz at 10% total harmonic distortion (THD) 2.0 Notebook Speakers
Pros: USB Powered, Plug & Play with XP, Nice travel case, Good sound, Volume controls.
Cons: None.
Other Thoughts: I was going to give these four stars but for what they are they are very nice so I gave them five.
Don't expect audiophile quality out of these. They are powered by your USB port and don't have a subwoofer but for travel, not having an outlet handy or just wanting fewer wires around these little speakers sound great.
There's enough bass response that you can feel it if your sitting near your laptop. The volume goes as high as I need it to before the USB port starts clipping the power (which is indicated by the LED); easily enough to fill a room with sound. They seemed just a shade flat at first but just a touch of tweaking on the WMP EQ made them sparkle.
I'd highly recommend these if you're considering them and on the fence.
This review is from: HyperX 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model KHX6400D2K2/2GR
Pros: Great RAM. This isn't the exact model I own but wanted to pass along some information. I have 4 Gb's of HyperX DDR2 800 (4x1 Gb) running smooth and stable.
Cons: None. I hate to see this good RAM loose eggs because people don't understand how and why it intalls as it does.
Other Thoughts: Kingston HyperX DDR2 800 RAM typically defaults to DDR2 667 at looser than stated timings and lower than stated voltages to ensure compatibility with a wide range of systems.
Once installed simply go into the BIOS, raise the clock rate, tighten the timings and manually set the voltage to your specific part number's specs and you're good to go.
This review is from: Antec 75000 80mm Case Cooling Fan
Pros: It's a fan.
Cons: It's loud.
Other Thoughts: I bought this as a side intake fan and removed it right away. It produces a very annoying, loud, high pitched whine.
It turns out I didn't need it anyway once I got my new CPU cooler installed so I've now got this 80mm annoyance sitting quietly in a closet.

Pura Vida Costa Rica. What a wonderful place. After the bad experience in Peru this was a much needed improvement. We felt like been back on our home; Puerto Rico.

Efter en fin nat med 10-11 timers søvn for pigernes vedkommende, var vi endelig klar til at snuse lidt til Costa Rica. Morgenmaden på hotellet var temmelig autentisk, så den stod på gallo pinto (ris og bønner ristet på panden), omeletter og frisk frugt. Super start på dagen. Vi tog derefter i Walmart, som er "the …
Så er vi endelig i San Jose, Costa Rica
Efter en meget lang og hård dag er vi endelig landet på hotellet i San Jose. Rart at se i det mindste 2 af vores kufferter igen og få rent tøj på - den sidste var stadig i Amsterdam! Men nu er det godnat herfra - det er over 20 timer siden vi stod op, vi er monster trætte. Så fedt endelig at være fremme :-)
Lost in Translation!
... with a moonwalk as the neck makes a chicken imitation as it prepares to projectile the mass that has been accumulated over a period of time. That's how' I felt when the Mongdongo arrived. It most certainly wasn't what that lady had in her dish when I arrived.
The smell itself was enough for me to know it was NOT pork belly , which is what I was led to believe. Then I saw it!! I looked at Draper . "This is not pork Belly". That's what she had been informed ...
Searching for an abode

As you walked in, it seemed quite normal. There were tables set out, as if for breakfast, but as you went in, the inside then became an outside- like an open quad in the middle of the building. Within this quad was a mini Jungle. There was a monkey in a cage, iguanas, parrots, and a squirrel ...

The Hydrogen Sonata (edition 2012)
by Iain M. Banks
Work details
The Hydrogen Sonata by Iain M. Banks
So. We arrive at Iain Banks's last SF novel, his last Culture novel, The Hydrogen Sonata. I'm pleased to say that, after the last two novels, Matter and Surface Detail, where the Culture seemed a peripheral presence, this is a return to the rip-roaring space opera of Consider Phlebas or Excession. And while it's not quite in that league it is a fine and fitting last journey with the Culture and it's idiosyncratic Ships.
The plot is the usual Banksian conundrum with alien civilizations (in this case the soon-to-Sublime Gzilt), a mysterious, millennia old citizen of the Culture and a deep, dark secret that may, or may not, have consequences for the Gzilt. It's a sprawling book with many interweaving plot strands, but the prose, as ever with Banks, is fluid, witty and easy to read.
The joy for me is the presence of a plethora of Culture ships, with suitably strange names. Not since Excession has a Culture novel featured so many ships, I think, and indeed the events of that earlier novel are referenced here.
The sadness is that this, with Banks's death, is the last Culture story. He, and they, will be missed.
Although undeniably imaginative and with a few entertaining bits of dialogue, I can't say this is an enjoyable read. There is a large cast of named characters, but only a handful of distinct personalities all of which have unclear motivations. The prose is odd to the point of distracting and the setting is so strange it's sometimes difficult to figure out what is going on, let alone why.
This is one of the better Culture novels, it expands the universe as well as being a cracking story with plenty of twists and turns.
More whimsical & playful than Matter or The Algebraist... enjoyable without the total wow moments of Player of Games or Consider Phlebas
I couldn't wait for this one to come up on my wish list... I checked it out from the library. The first thing I noticed was that Mr. Banks has a new jacket-flap photo. Aaagh! He looks old! That means I'm old too!
I love all of the Culture novels, but some are better than others. This is one of the better ones.
The Gzilt culture have scheduled the time at which they, as a culture, will Sublime - leave the concern of this world behind for a higher plane of existence.
Before this happens, a young woman from Gzilt, Vyr Cossont, has made it her life-work to successfully play one of the most difficult pieces of music ever written - the Hydrogen Sonata. (Too bad that from an aesthetic perspective, it sounds godawful, and pretty much no one wants to listen to it.)
However, on a higher galactic level, events concerning the Gzilt are afoot. An elder race has a secret concerning the Gzilt's primary religion, and revealing that secret might interfere with their Subliming. Or not. Maybe it wouldn't make a difference at all. However, for some reason, someone cares enough about this mystery to blow up and murder a Culture Mind ship - which captures the attention of a bunch of nosy/aloof Minds, who choose to investigate.
The only lead they have is rumors of a man who is said to be the oldest human alive - and by coincidence, Vyr Cossont had a passing friendly acquaintance with him a few years back. She gets recruited to help track him down to try to find out what he knows....
All this, and a ton and a half more, get tied together in a complex, philosophical, grotesque, eerily beautiful, and oh yeah - funny and action-packed narrative.

Discover classic cooking in The Fireside Cook Book by James Beard, with menus like English Dinner (Scotch Broth, Rissolé Potatoes, Trifle) and Swedish Dinner (Dilled New Potatoes, Roast Leg of Lamb, Caramel Pudding).
by James Beard
Roast the leg of lamb in the customary way, adding 3 carrots and onions after the roast has cooked for about 30 minutes. After another 1/2 hour, add 1 cup coffee with sugar and cream. Baste with the juices and the coffee which have mixed in the pan. Serve with the browned potatoes and the pan juices poured over the roast or served separately.
Cook new potatoes in the usual way and dress with butter, chopped parsley, and finely chopped fresh dill. These are also good with fish.
Melt 1 cup sugar in an iron or steel skillet. When browned, add boiling water and stir until it makes a syrup. Coat the inside of a baking dish with this syrup. Mix beaten eggs, 3 tablespoons sugar, and vanilla, and stir in cream mixed with salt. Add this mixture to the baking dish.
Place in a pan of hot water in a moderate oven (325°) and bake until set, but not entirely firm, for it will continue cooking when removed from the oven. Unmold when cool and garnish with candied fruits or blanched almonds if you wish.

David and all-
I'm very happy to hear that things have worked out well for you in
regards to hibiscus suppliers. The story you sent, like so many others,
is hard to believe! It's amazing that anything can survive such blazes!
The warm weather that we are having has given me a reprieve! I will
have time to bring the last of the plants that I want to "save" indoors
this weekend! I must dig up the cannas and dahlias after the frost
hits them. It's just too expensive to keep buying the things year after
year. That goes for my amaryllis as well! Indoors, all of my coleus
cuttings have rooted and need potting up! There is one hibiscus bush
that I've been growing for years that hardly blooms. I think that I'm
leaving it outside for the winter. I hate to deliberately kill a plant,
but I have to give the space to plants that live up to their potential.
I also have a five foot high and wide cactus that may just end up
compost. I just don't have the space for it. I wish I had known it
would grow so large when I bought it as a baby plant!
Speaking of large things- Two of my very large tropical fish died
yesterday. I had tried to treat them, but I really needed a fish
doctor! One was a nine inch golden sevrum which was one of a pair. I
feel really sorry for its mate. I have a six foot long 100 gallon tank
that I have been maintaining for near on 20 years. Sometimes I feel
really helpless!

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (diabetes) is a growing public health problem. Chronic infections have been suggested as a potential risk factor for diabetes and there is a known association between periodontal infections and diabetes. Although it is generally believed that periodontal infections are a consequence of existing diabetes, there is growing support for the hypothesis that periodontal infections might contribute tq diabetogenesis, although research on this topic is limited. The evidence supporting the role of periodontal infections as a risk factor for a number of other systemic diseases (i.e., cardiovascular disease and pregnancy outcomes) continues to grow and further supports the rationale for. the current research proposal. Furthermore, recent reports implicate inflammation as a strong risk factor for incident diabetes. Since the inflammatory response is a central aspect of periodontal pathology, it is of interest to explore whether or not inflammation might mediate the association between periodontal disease and diabetes, or simply be an underlying contributor to both disease processes. The current proposal aims to test the hypothesis that periodontal infection is an etiologic factor in the development of diabetes. Baseline exposure to known periodontal pathogens will be assessed to see if elevated infectious exposure is associated with accelerated progression of fasting glucose and insulin levels. This will be achieved using a longitudinal cohort design among n=300 participants in a population of men and women aged 25 - 55 years at baseline enrollment. The proposed design will carefully control for potential confounders such as baseline levels of fasting glucose, insulin, lipids, obesity, diet, age, smoking, ethnicity and gender.
The proposed research can advance the-scientific knowledge regarding the well-known association between periodontal infection and diabetes through its provision of a powerful study design appropriate for addressing temporarily (i.e., do periodontal infections precede the onset of diabetes pathology), hi addition, data on the independent contribution of infections to the underlying pathology of diabetes can be addressed for the first time using a population based, chronic infection model

|Re: apr_atomic stuff... desireable to return values from more functions
|Wed, 03 Dec 2003 11:57:21 GMT
This is still unresolved. See message <firstname.lastname@example.com> (subject "Re: request for comments: new atomic API", 9/15/2003 9:21 PM EST) for where a previous conversation on this was left dangling. re: apr_atomic_inc32() IMHO, this guy just *has* to return information to specify whether or not the value became non-zero due to this thread's call. I'll dig into this (i.e., fix the declarations and leave most of the platforms broken :) ) unless somebody has some objection to the idea. re: apr_atomic_add32(),apr_atomic_sub32() Maybe the answer is that if the app needs the information that could have been returned by APR, it can just use apr_atomic_cas32(), and it is fine to have these void functions (though is anybody really going to use them?).

text: The Semmelweis Reflex explains why people reject the newEsther Inglis-Arkell10/25/13 9:40am3610EditPromoteGo to permalinkDo people reflexively fear the new? They seem to reject it often enough that there's a psychological syndrome to explain it. The Semmelweis Reflex is named after a guy who came up with a radical idea that could have saved thousands of lives — only to see everyone reject it and continue with the killing.

Understanding ETNs on VIX Futures
Carol Alexander
University of Sussex - School of Business, Management and Economics
Dimitris Korovilas
University of Reading - ICMA Centre
April 22, 2012
This paper aims to improve transparency in the market for direct, leveraged and inverse exchange-traded notes (ETNs) on VIX futures. The first VIX futures ETNs were issued in 2009. Now there are about 30 of them, with a market cap of about $3 billion and trading volume on some of these products can reach $5 billion per day. Yet volatility trading is highly complex and regulators are rightly concerned that many market participants lack sufficient understanding of the risks they are taking. We recommend that exchanges, market-makers, issuers and potential investors, as well as regulators, read this paper to improve their understanding of these ETNs.
We provide a detailed explanation of the roll yield and convexity effects that drive the returns on VIX futures ETNs, and we track their volatility and assess their performance over an eight-year period starting in March 2004, by replicating their values using daily close VIX futures prices. We explain how ETN issuers can construct almost perfect hedges of their suite of ETNs and control their issue (most ETNs are callable) to make very significant profits under all bootstrapped scenarios. However, market knowledge has precipitated front-running of the issuer's hedging activities, making profits more difficult to control. Moreover, for hedging the ETNs such large positions must be taken on VIX futures that the ETN market now leads the VIX futures that they are supposed to track. The result has been an evident increase in the volatility of VIX futures since 2009. If this increase in statistical volatility induces an increase in VIX futures implied volatility, a knock-on effect would be higher prices of VIX options whilst S&P options are unaffected.
A previous discussion paper, Alexander and Korovilas (2012), provided incontrovertible evidence that single positions on direct VIX futures ETNs of any maturity – including mid-term and longer-term trackers – could only provide a diversification/hedge of equity exposure during the first few months of a great crisis of similar magnitude to the banking collapse in late 2008. By contrast, the present discussion paper shows that some highly attractive long-term investment vehicles can be simply constructed by holding certain portfolios of VIX futures ETNs. In particular, we introduce a new class of 'roll-yield arbitrage' ETN portfolios which we call ETN2 (because they allocate between direct and inverse VIX futures tracker ETNs) and ETN3 portfolios (that allocate between static and dynamic ETN2). These portfolios have positive exposure to mid-term direct-tracker ETNs and (typically) negative exposure to short-term direct-tracker ETNs (equivalently, positive exposure to short-term inverse-tracker ETNs). Their unique risk and return characteristics make them highly attractive long-term investments, as well as superb diversifiers of stocks, bonds and commodities.

Contact: email@example.com Type: Opinion of the Scientific Committee/Scientific Panel On request from: European Commission Question Number: EFSA-Q-2011-00008 Adopted: 13 September 2012 Published in the EFSA Journal: 4 October 2012 Affiliation: European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), Parma, Italy Send Print Note: Read the article on the Wiley Online Library Abstract: The Panel on Food Additives and Nutrient Sources added to Food (ANS) delivers a scientific opinion re-evaluating the safety of carnauba wax (E 903). Carnauba wax (E 903) is authorised in the EU as food additive as glazing agent. It has been evaluated by the Scientific Committee on Food (SCF) and by the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) who allocated an Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) of 7 mg/kg bw/day. The SCF did not establish an ADI but considered the use of carnauba wax as a glazing agent acceptable. Carnauba wax is a complex mixture of compounds consisting mainly of aliphatic esters (wax esters), α-hydroxyl esters and cinnamic aliphatic diesters obtained from the Brazilian Mart wax palm, Copernicia cerifera. The Panel considered that carnauba wax would be predicted to not be significantly absorbed from the diet and that if hydrolysed its main constituents could be absorbed and incorporated into normal cellular metabolic pathways. Based on the available data and the lack of structural alerts on carnauba wax it was concluded that there is no concern for genotoxicity for carnauba wax. Subchronic and reproductive and developmental toxicity studies did not showed adverse effects related to carnauba wax intake. No chronic toxicity or carcinogenicity studies were available on carnauba wax. Overall, the Panel considered that long-term toxicity data on carnauba wax were lacking and therefore did not establish an ADI.. However, the Panel considered that the exposure estimates to carnauba wax from the proposed uses resulted in sufficient margins of safety compared to the identified No Observed Adverse Effect Levels (NOAELs) for carnauba wax, allowing the Panel to conclude that the use of carnauba wax as a food additive with the currently authorised uses would not be of safety concern. © European Food Safety Authority, 2012 Keywords: Carnauba wax, INS No. 903, CAS Registry Number 8015-86-9, EINECS 232-399-0 Print on demand Number of Pages: 23

Tools for managing CampTix installations across a WordPress Multisite network.
The dashboard is located under the Dashboard menu in the Network Admin area (e.g., http://example.org/wp-admin/network/).
The data on the Overview tab is only generated once every hour. You can tell when it was last generated by looking at the bottom of the page.
In order to lookup transaction details, CampTix Network Tools needs to know what payment gateway to use, and what your credentials are for it.
You can specify them by setting up a filter callback like the example below. The best place to put the code is inside a functionality plugin.
Currently, transaction lookups are only available with PayPal.
function camptix_dashboard_paypal_credentials( $credentials ) {
$credentials = array(
"sandbox-account" => array(
'label' => "Sandbox Account",
'sandbox' => true,
'api_username' => '',
'api_password' => '',
'api_signature' => '',
"production-account" => array(
'label' => 'Production Account',
'sandbox' => false,
'api_username' => '',
'api_password' => '',
'api_signature' => '',
return $credentials;
add_filter( 'camptix_dashboard_paypal_credentials', 'camptix_dashboard_paypal_credentials' );
You can use the
camptix_nt_notification_expressions filter to add custom notifications. For each entry, you'll provide a regular expression that matches a log entry, and an array of e-mail addresses that will be notified whenever a match occurs. The best place to put the code is inside a functionality plugin.
Here's an example of several different patterns being matched and associated with e-mail addresses:
function camptix_email_notification_expressions( $expressions ) {
$expressions = array_merge( $expressions, array(
'/changed to (failed|pending|refund)/' => array( 'firstname.lastname@example.com', 'firstname.lastname@example.com' ),
'/Error during RefundTransaction/i' => array( 'email@example.com' ),
'/Setting all transactions to refund/i' => array( 'firstname.lastname@example.com' ),
'/Warning during PayPal request/i' => array( 'email@example.com', 'email@example.com' ),
) );
return $expressions;
add_filter( 'camptix_nt_notification_expressions', 'camptix_email_notification_expressions' );
For help understanding regular expressions, check out Learning Regular Expressions for Beginners and Regular Expressions User Guide. You can use RegExr to test your expressions.

Why a Gsxr 750 after owning a liter bike?
I've come to the conclusion that most people thought my ninja1000 was basically an upright version on a zx10r or other supersport liter bikes and that was not the case. It was basically a detuned liter bike with lots of torque low end and not much high end power. I made the switch for many reasons but the main one was weight reduction, I was tired of throwing around a big heavy bike in the corners. Still breaking in the gsxr so don't worry, the wheelies are comin ;)

This proposal is for the Pennsylvania College of Optometry Clinical Center to continue to annually examine the 93 currently enrolled COSMICC participants (only 15 subjects have been lost to follow-up since enrolled in 1997-98) at the Pennsylvania College of Optometry center for an additional 5 yrs (total follow-up, 14 yrs) following the COSMICC2 protocol. The data collected from this center will be used to address the specific aims described in more detail in the Chair application and summarized briefly here: 1) to use mathematical functions (the Gompertz function and others) to model myopia progression in the 58% of COSMICC subjects with progressing myopia and to develop predictive models and test hypotheses based on previously identified risk factors (age, ethnicity, parental myopia);2) to test 4 hypotheses related to environmental risk factors for myopia progression and stabilization and axial elongation in this well-characterized cohort of myopes;and 3) to test three hypotheses related to risk factors for the development of myopia-related changes in IOP, CCT and macular thickness in COSMICC subjects. The high prevalence of myopia (25% of the US adult population) and its prominence as a public health problem (risk factor for conditions that can cause vision loss and blindness) emphasize the importance of gaining increased understanding of mechanisms underlying progression and eventual stabilization, so that in the future myopia might be limited to low levels. Better understanding of the factors predictive of myopia progression and stabilization also will help guide selection and timing of interventions as well as target those groups that may benefit the most from treatment. This application documents the Pennsylvania College of Optometry's ability to follow the COSMICC2 Manual of Procedures and to retain patients for five years. Documentation is also provided that the Pennsylvania College of Optometry has the personnel, equipment, and facilities to conduct the study in accordance with the COSMICC2 Manual of Procedures.

I have a pc and have no problem with seeing the map.
We're at the tail end of a nor'easter here in NY. No power this am when I
left for work. I have a one hundred gallon fish tank with BIG fish (12" or
better) that need oxygen so I turned on the battery powered air stone. It
was still running when I got home. And, the power's back on! We frequently
get brief power outages here by the water. What I most feared was trees or
dead limbs falling on me while I drove the many miles of tree lined roads
home. The ground is so saturated. This October is the wettest ever for
Central Park, NYC (17 +"). We had to set a record on LI as well. I wrote the
highway department AGAIN about some really scary-looking dead branches. We
call them "widow-makers" around here. There was a report of at least one
person killed by a fallen tree in the news this evening.
I have to go out tonight and take my sister to a high school production my
nephew is in. Wish I didn't have to drive in this weather.
