Tax Facts Index
Department of Finance
Vol. 12, No.
July 2001
On May 5, 2001, the voters in the City of
Baker approved a 1/2% sales and use tax rate increase. This tax is only applicable to
taxable transactions within the City of Baker, including property delivered into the city.
Proceeds from this tax will be used for pay increases for Baker Police and Fire personnel.
Sales of food for home consumption, sales of prescription drugs, and medically related
items are subject to the additional 1/2% sales and use tax. As a result, the total local
sales and use tax in the City of Baker will increase from 5% to 5-1/2% effective October
1, 2001.
Hotel/Motel Occupancy Tax
Exemption for Governmental Employees
Beginning July 2001, the rentals of hotel/motel rooms to
government employees on government business in this Parish are exempt from the Hotel/Motel Occupancy taxes.
This office will require the guest claiming the exemption to follow existing procedures
as defined by the Louisiana Department of Revenue and present an executed
"Certificate of Government Exemption" at the time of check-in.
Currently, the tax rate for hotel/motel rooms in East Baton Rouge Parish is 13%, which
consists of a 4% State of Louisiana sales tax, a 5% local sales tax, and a 4% hotel/motel
occupancy tax.
Effective July 1, 2001, hotels/motels should not charge the 4% hotel/motel occupancy
tax on rooms rented to authorized government employees who present the certificate
mentioned above. In addition, the state and local sales tax totaling 9% should not be
collected on these transactions.
Taxability of Medically Related Items
Local sales and use tax has been due on medically
related items since local sales taxes were imposed by the City-Parish in 1951 and 1956.
Medically related items include medical devices, orthotic and prosthetic devices, and
prescription drugs prescribed by a physician. These items are only subject to 3% local
sales tax in East Baton Rouge Parish, but specifically exempted from the .5% Sewer
Improvement tax, .5% Street Improvement tax, and the 1% Educational Facilities Improvement
District tax.
Medical items must be prescribed by a physician to be eligible for the partial
exemption. To
be considered a medical device, the item must come into direct physical contact with a
patients body, be used for a single patient, be disposable in nature or provided to
one patient, and used in the treatment of a disease. An orthotic device deals with the
support and bracing of weak and ineffective joints or muscles. A prosthetic device is an
artificial device used to replace a missing part of the body. Prescription drugs include
drugs that must be filled by a pharmacist.
Sellers of medically related items who have established
nexus in East Baton Rouge Parish are required to charge tax on their invoices and remit
these taxes to the City-Parish. If a seller does not have nexus, it is the responsibility
of the purchaser to register and accrue use tax due directly to the City-Parish on line 14
of the monthly City-Parish sales/use tax return. A seller has sufficient nexus with the
jurisdiction if the seller has a place of business, sales representatives, or an office or
warehouse located in the jurisdiction.
Dentists received a special exemption effective August 1, 1991 where the sales by
dental labs to a dentist of fixed and movable dental prosthesis (dentures and bridges) and
all parts associated with the replacement and restoration of the teeth are exempt from the
local sales and use tax after August 1, 1991. Braces and retainers are not considered as
dental prosthesis and are subject to use tax. Dentists are responsible for sales/use tax
on equipment used in the business of rendering dental services.
Finance Department Hosts Seminar
for Taxpayers
The Finance Department will host a tax seminar on
Friday, November 16, 2001, to address sales and use tax issues,

Authority, Livingston Parish School Board, and West Baton Rouge Parish will also be in
attendance. Anyone interested in attending can contact the Revenue Division or visit the
Finance Department web site and register on-line. If you have a question or topic

Studly cowboy Dex Weston reveals his fantasy of meeting a hot man on the beach-a fantasy that is then played out when he spies handsome Steve Maverick tossing a football around in the sand. The two end up back at Weston's place, where the real action begins with Maverick freeing Western's beautiful cock from beneath his shorts so he can suck on it. Grabbing onto the back of Maverick's head, Western guides his new boy toy up and down his tool, laying back to enjoy the view. But Weston's got other things on his mind, namely eating ass, and he strips Maverick down to a jockstrap so he can do just that. With Maverick lying on his stomach, Weston buries his tongue into the jock's lightly hairy bubble butt. Weston then lies on his back so Maverick can sit on his face, slobbering all over his hole in preparation for the fuck to come. Weston climbs on top of Maverick's ass and begins to ride him like a bull. Holding Maverick down, he pummels his prize possession like a champ at a rodeo. With a twinkle in his eye, the mischievous Maverick pulls out a double-ended dong and hands it to Weston, who obliges by pushing the massive rubber dildo into Maverick's lubed-up hole. Maverick loves every minute of it, accepting the ass-fucking with sheer aplomb. Next he flips onto his back so that Weston can suck him off, and he explodes with a massive load that rips from his slit while Weston greedily tongues his balls. Weston is close behind, shooting his own milk onto Weston before collapsing on top of his newfound friend.

Cops: Missouri Man Says He Exposed 300 Men to HIV
(NEWSER) – An HIV-positive Missouri man now has more to fear than romantic rejection. Police allege that David Lee Mangum has exposed some 300 sexual partners to HIV in the last decade, which is how long he has known he's had HIV. They say the 37-year-old told them as much during their interview with him, reports the Daily Statesman. Mangum was arrested Aug. 28 after a former partner, identified only as DB, contacted police. DB says Mangum told him he had no STDs, but that after the two broke up in June he received a phone call from Magnum's old roommate, who alerted him to Magnum's condition. DB's HIV test came back positive.

Antigua to Launch Pirate Site to "Punish" U.S. With World Trade Org. Blessing
Jason Mick

Sender E-mail
Site is allowed to make up to $21M USD a year to compensate for "illegal" U.S. ban on internet gambling
This month the twin-island nation of Antigua and Barbuda aims to finally force a World Trade Organization discussion of its plans to launch a "pirate" site, which would profit off of selling cheap bootlegs of copyrighted works owned by copyright holders in the United States.
The unprecedented plan comes courtesy of a bizarre trade conflict between the U.S. and the small Caribbean island nation. The battle began when the U.S. in 2003 blocked various Antiguan internet gambling portals, such as the World Sports Exchange. After negotiations collapsed, Antigua took its case to the
World Trade Organization
, an international arbitrary body that deals with trade disputes.
The WTO
in 2005 that the U.S. decision to
block Antiguan internet gambling IP addresses
violated free-trade since some similar domestic (U.S.) gambling sites were
allowed to remain in operation
. The U.S. refused to comply with the ruling. The refusal brought big changes to the island's economy; 5 percent of the citizens once worked in the high-tech internet gambling industry -- now they were left looking for jobs.
In 2007, a frustrated WTO
ruled that Antigua was allowed to suspend U.S. copyrights
to the tune of up to $21M USD annually until the U.S. complied with the ruling. Antigua declared plans to leverage the ruling by launching a portal that sells bootlegs of U.S. copyrighted works at discounted rates, for profit.

The WTO would have to sign off on the plan, but that debate never happened because the U.S. successfully shelved the discussion at the last WTO meeting, calling it "untimely".
an interview
Torrent Freak
, Antiguan government attorney Mark Mendel emphasized that his nation's plans were not "piracy" as the WTO approved of the copyright violations. He remarks, "There is no body in the world that can stop us from doing this, as we already have approval from the international governing body WTO."
The U.S. is upset about the plan. It has written a
terse letter
to the WTO declaring:
If Antigua actually proceeds with a plan for its government to authorize the theft of intellectual property, it would only serve to hurt Antigua's own interests.
Government-authorized piracy would undermine chances for a settlement that would provide real benefits to Antigua. It also would serve as a major impediment to foreign investment in the Antiguan economy, particularly in high-tech industries.
But Antigua isn't listening to the threat and is poised to move forward with the plan at this month's meeting. Exact details of the portal have not been publicized, but
Torrent Freak
writes that one idea is to grant citizens unlimited access to U.S. copyrighted works for $5 USD/month. Antigua and Barbuda has a population of about 80,000 people, most of whom live on the island of Antigua.

By Rikki King Herald Writer
EVERETT — An Everett firefighter has been placed on paid administrative leave while police investigate allegations that he was selling antiques taken from a burned-out building along Hewitt Avenue.
An antiques dealer whose former shop was condemned after the fatal November fire at the McCrossen Building brought the allegations to police and city officials late last week.
She was told to file a police report. It wasn't clear Monday whether that's happened.
Sue Ludwig, who owned The Spare Room Vintage Flea Market, said that items from her condemned store showed up on Craigslist, a free website for classified ads.
She believes the ads were posted by the firefighter, she said Monday.
The firefighter was put on leave effective Tuesday, city spokeswoman Kate Reardon said.
Everett police are investigating whether the firefighter was "in possession of items allegedly removed inappropriately from a fire scene," Reardon said.
Paid administrative leave is standard procedure for any kind of serious allegation against a city staffer and is not a disciplinary finding, she said.
"At this time, it's too early to come to any kind of conclusions," she said.
Ludwig owned The Spare Room for nearly five years, she said. She estimates she lost about $100,000 worth of goods in the fire. The store didn't burn, but it was damaged by smoke, asbestos, water and mold, she said.
Most of the goods inside were ruined, she said. One of her vendors had some stoneware pottery inside the wreckage.
The vendor spotted Craigslist ads for the pottery, Ludwig said.
"They recognized their items, and they called 911," she said.
The vendor went to the firefighter's house last week, Ludwig said. The man reportedly told the vendor he'd bought the items for $300. He allegedly said he would return them to her at the same price.
He also reportedly had a lamp at his house that the vendor recognized. Details of that conversation have not been confirmed with police.
The Herald is not naming the firefighter because he has not been charged with a crime. Documents show he's been with the department since at least the mid-1990s. His age was not immediately available.
The Nov. 8 fire left one dead and about 40 displaced. The cause of the fire never was determined, but investigators ruled out arson. The building was supposed to be demolished already, but the property owner says he is still working on it.

dont know what to do?
hi im danielle,im now 16wks pregnant and ive still not had any blood tests? i have had my 12week scan they said baby looks fine,i saw my midwife today mentioned that i have still not had any blood tests or injections she didnt seem that bothered.is it important to have your bloods tested or not?? does anyone know please?x
29th October 2013 06:28 AM #2
Hi Danielle,
Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your pregnancy.
It is recommended to have the antenatal blood tests carried out during pregnancy. The blood tests include: finding out your blood group (in the unlikely instance that you need a blood transfusion), checking your Rhesus factor (this is important), checking your iron levels (anemia is common in pregnancy), checking you are immune to Rubella and seeing if you are a carrier of the hepatitis B virus. These are generally first tested at your first antenatal appointment. I would get in contact with your midwife again and ask when the blood tests can be performed.
I wish you a happy, healthy pregnancy.
Best wishes,

Yes, Virginia, these items actually exist for the L.A. fans who are in need of an exquisite, team-specific holiday gift, bound to bring minutes of pleasure - and still available with a rush order:
For the Dodgers fan
Item: A sculpted and enameled pewter money clip.
Where: Amazon.com
Price: $21.97
The pitch: Sure, you can find one of these things much less expensive - there's a stainless steel model with the "L.A." logo for just $7.75 - but now's not the time to be cheap. The way things have been going at the Ravine, enjoy the windfall of cash that new ownership brings. This one is 4 ounces of a status symbol that shows you're not only willing to flash some large currency at the concession stand, but you insist on overpaying for everyone.
For the Lakers fan
Item: A purple-and-gold rhinestone pacifier.
Where: Etsy.com
Price: $13.75
The pitch: The wait is almost over for Nash, Howard, Gasol, Kobe and Metta to step on the court together and make a serious run at that eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference. Until then, pacify your thoughts with this high-end, handmade binky, which comes with a sateen ribbon. They recommend you hand wash and hang dry, if that's possible through all your hand wringing.
For the Kings fan
Item: A collectible team bank.
Where: ESPNShop.com
Price: $49.99
The pitch: The actual listing says: "Save up your pennies for the next game with this Caseworks NHL collectible bank." Not even the "durable acrylic construction" can handle the irony that fills this thing up as you help generate more off-ice revenue for the league's players and owners to haggle over. Fill this up, and you still won't have enough to buy the cheapest seat in Staples Center once they decide to resume the Stanley Cup tour.
For the UCLA basketball fan
Item: A six-foot "True Blue" pet leash
Where: Fanatics.com
Price: $19.95
The pitch: "Keep your spirited pup under control on your daily walks ... the perfect accessory for a Bruins fan and his furry best friend." More functionally, these can be endorsed by coach Ben Howland as a most effective way to keep players from leaving the roster just before the start of the Pacific-12 Conference schedule.
Imagine how Josh Smith could have benefitted with a choke chain, and one of these keeping him away from the extra Milk Bones.
For the USC football fan
Item: A unique T-shirt gift package
Price: $34.
Where: USCbookstore.com, SunBowl.com
The pitch: Hustle first to the USC bookstore and nab one of the "Unfinished Business" T-shirts that originally sold for $20 but can now be had for just $10. Next, the Sun Bowl official site has snazzy USC-certified T-shirts ($24) that'll identify you as one sharp SoCal dude when you head to El Paso, Texas, for the New Year's Eve bowl game that everyone's talking about. Meanwhile, sniff around the UCLA campus and you may land a silk-screened gem that's been in circulation: "I Don't Give A Rat's Ass about USC," a quote from Bruins coach Jim Mora.
For the Angels fan
Item: A Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim North Pole Sign
Where: FoxSportsShop.com
Price: $24.95
The pitch: Forever Collectables ends the confusion about where the Angels are actually located year-round. At least, in relation to Los Angeles, the North Pole and the pot of gold they seem to have found to acquire Josh Hamilton. "Makes a great holiday decoration," says the website blurb, but only the small print points you to where this was actually made: In China.
For the Galaxy fan
Item: Beckham by Beckham 2.5 ounce Eau de Toilette
Where. Target.com
Price: $17.39
The pitch: David Beckham may be gone, but his odor lingers on. The worldly "woodsy" scent contains "notes of sandalwood, cardamom, amber, grapefruit, nutmeg, bergamot, violet, patchouli and star anise. (Check the Galaxy roster again; we recall Cardamom, Bergamot and Patchouli as three of the team's top defenders). It says the stuff is only for "casual use," which may best depict how the local kickball team used Becks for some six years before releasing him to the rest of the world, triumphantly with an MLS Cup wedged under each armpit.

Herald staff
MOUNT VERNON — A Lynnwood man died in a crash Friday afternoon on Highway 9 in Skagit County after his car smashed head-on into a tractor-trailer, the Washington State Patrol said.
Michael Shevchuk, 58, was pronounced dead at the scene of the 4:25 p.m. collision about two miles south of Mount Vernon, a patrol press memo states. The cause remained under investigation Sunday.
Shevchuk had been driving a 2004 Kia Rio north on the highway when his car went into the opposite lanes and hit a southbound 1996 Kenworth truck, troopers said. The 42-year-old truck driver was taken to Skagit Valley Hospital for treatment. The truck also pushed Shevchuk's Rio into a 1998 Lincoln Navigator driven by a 35-year-old woman, who was not injured.
Troopers said the surviving drivers were not at fault and will face no charges.

Collaborative, innovative design mock-up connects 35+ industry partners to address needs of healthcare community.
NEW YORK – NXT Health, a nonprofit organization dedicated to collaborative design innovation to improve the delivery of care, unveiled Patient Room 2020, an interactive healthcare living laboratory that responds to needs of doctors, nurses, patients and their families by creating a safer, more streamlined, integrated and restorative environment.
NXT Health recruited more than 35 product and service partners to contribute to the creation of Patient Room 2020. Through their product and service donations was able to deliver on its promise to create an environment that could solve some of the greatest challenges facing healthcare design and delivery. Partners range from lighting design experts and specialty glass manufacturers to custom fabricators.
The room was installed in a custom space at the DuPont™ Corian® Design Studio in New York City, which is owned by DuPont, Evans & Paul, and Dolan & Traynor.
"Hospitals have to do more with less, medical decisions require even more analysis, and we are more dependent on specialized technologies to most effectively treat patients and create an environment in which providers can thrive," says Salley Whitman, executive director of NXT Health. "By streamlining complexities and leveraging evidence-based design and innovation tools, Patient Room 2020 is a catalyst for industry leaders concerned with solutions that save lives, time and money."
The 400-square-foot patient room prototype leverages a broad collection of technologies that addresses five key aspects of design:
Patient Ribbon: collects many of the disparate elements commonly found in healthcare environments into a single, streamlined, patient-centered design response that encompasses headwall to footwall
Patient Companion: combines two ubiquitous elements, an over bed table and a touch screen tablet, to form a single piece of mobile furniture that could be utilized in a wide range of healthcare settings.
Open Bathroom: adaptable bathroom concept that features a sliding door system which can be reconfigured based on care needs
Caregiver Station: entry workstation featuring integrated hand washing indicator lights, concealed accessories and RFID enclosure.
Caregiver Hub: deployable bedside work area with embedded technology, simulated UV light sanitization and wireless device charging stations.
"We're incredibly supportive of NXT Health and their vision of creating solutions through collaborative design," says Susan Homan, commercial marketing manager, DuPont Surfaces. "The DuPont™ Corian® Design Studio is an ideal home—and incubator—to further test the full-scale prototype and engage with architects, designers, and healthcare professionals."

"Hi, this site is all about ninjas, REAL NINJAS. This site is awesome. My name is Robert and I can't stop thinking about ninjas. These guys are cool; and by cool, I mean totally sweet."
" Ninjas can kill anyone they want! Ninjas cut off heads ALL the time and don't even think twice about it. These guys are so crazy and awesome that they flip out ALL the time. I heard that there was this ninja who was eating at a diner. And when some dude dropped a spoon the ninja killed the whole town. My friend Mark said that he saw a ninja totally uppercut some kid just because the kid opened a window.
And that's what I call REAL Ultimate Power!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!
If you don't believe that ninjas have REAL Ultimate Power you better get a life right now or they will chop your head off!!! It's an easy choice, if you ask me.
Ninjas are sooooooooooo sweet that I want to crap my pants. I can't believe it sometimes, but I feel it inside my heart. These guys are totally awesome and that's a fact. Ninjas are fast, smooth, cool, strong, powerful, and sweet. I can't wait to start yoga next year. I love ninjas with all of my body (including my pee pee). "

Dear Stupid idiots,
A lot of you have been signing my guest book and saying that I dont know anything about REAL ninjas. But thats a bunch of bull crap! You dummies dont know anything. And maybe YOU should get a life. I bet a lot of you have never even seen a girl naked! You idiots believe that ninjas had some code of honor, just because you read Ching Chongs guide to ninjas and codes and stuff. Yeah right! You shouldnt believe everything you read. If by code of honor, you mean code to flip out and go nuts for absolutely no reason at all even if it means that people might think you are totally insane or sweet, then you are right. But if you mean a "code to be nice and speak nicely while sharing and not cutting off heads", then youre the biggest idiot ever!!!!!! So if you have any brains, you will shut up and get a life. So go shut up, you stupid idiot.

oh and havoc, that shit was mad weird!! i was there when he flicked it. and then a lil down the tracks i found a huge lock of hair. weird ass shit.
but anyways...
i have a random story to tell. let me start from the beginning...
well, my friend calls me up and tells me hes at IGA (local supermarket and GREAT place to chill and skateboard)
so i go, when my dad drops me off, they call me to go around the back of the complex. so i hope a wall in this atrium thing and right behind it is a huge ass dumpster. and inside they found a LIVE chicken! so we finally get it out using a long metal rod, and once out, we pick it up (it was sick or domesticated cuz it didnt try to bite us or anything) so we bring it into the atrium where we skate, and we decide to get some bird food for it, so we go inside, find some bird food, and put some on the ledge its sittin on. and a guy we all know who works at IGA comes out and starts talkin to us. and we have this random chicken. (he knew we had it cuz we brought it into the store :lol so were all talkin and shit and petting the chicken (it was real friendly) when all of the sudden, we hear tires screech and i look over to see a car spinning out from the parking lot, windows down, with someone with a paintballl gun hangin out, so we all start runnin for cover cuz there only 25 feet or so away (fuck, i dont wanna loose an eye! and yes, i DO play paintball, i know what its like, plus kids in my city shoot at you with fuckin marbles, and that KILLS! so i didnt wanna take any chances ) so im scramblin around and hidin behind a ledge. they shot at us about 10 times. and no one but the fuckin half dead, disease infested chicken got shot! the smallest of the group, and probably the closest to death of us all got shot. luckily it was the thigh or else that fucker would be dead! so theres paint everywhere, and we all check ourselves (luckily they were paintballs and not marbles) and we find out the chicken was shot. so were just back to chillin, wonderin who the fuck that was. while 10 minutes later 2 cop cars roll up and question us and shit. we told em what we knew. and asked them too take the chicken or at least call animal control. there exact words were "i dont give 2 shits about the chicked" i think they were more pissed bout the shooting and the fact that we were all chillen there skateboarding. so they leave, and end up comin back 2 times to kick us out from skating. wut a fuckin great day it was. my friend still has that damn chicken too. hes keepin it, cuz we all grew to love that chicken. and i will till i die. :P

Tip leads police to a suspect in abduction, assault of girl, 10
Los Angeles • A fugitive charged with abducting and sexually assaulting a 10-year-old Los Angeles girl was returned to the U.S. Wednesday after being arrested in a Mexican village where he'd checked himself into a rehabilitation facility under a fake name, authorities said.
Tobias Summers, 30, was being brought to Los Angeles to face 37 felony charges, including numerous sexual assault counts, FBI Special Agent in Charge Tim Delaney told a press conference.
Summers was a fugitive for nearly a month. Police Chief Charlie Beck credited a $25,000 FBI reward that was highly publicized south of the border for a phone tip late Tuesday that led to Summers' arrest Wednesday morning.
Mexican authorities acted on the tip received by the FBI and tracked Summers to a drug and alcohol treatment facility in a tiny village on the coast between Tijuana and Ensenada, according to Alfredo Arenas, international liaison for the Baja California state police.
The victim's parents discovered she was missing from her bedroom in her Northridge home in the early morning hours of March 27. She was found about 12 hours later wandering near a Starbucks several miles away.
Trial spectacle grows as seat sold for $200
Phoenix • Ticket scalping is nothing new in the sports and music world, but for a murder trial?
Dozens of people flock to court each day for a chance to score one of a handful of seats open to the public in Jodi Arias' ongoing murder trial in Arizona. The seats are provided on a first-come, first-serve basis, and nearly four months into the trial, the crowds are growing.
This week, one trial regular sold her spot to another person for $200 and both got reprimands from the court on Tuesday. Desiree Lee, a regular attendee, said another woman had traveled from Michigan to see the trial but couldn't get a seat because she was too far back in line.
"She was asking a couple of people ahead of me if they wanted to sell their seats," Lee, who lives in the area, told ABC15 in Phoenix. "I said yes because I can come every day if I wanted to ... I seriously didn't know I was going to get in trouble.
"I'm a little embarrassed more than anything," Lee added.
She said she was told to return the money. The purchaser kept her seat for free.
Court officials confirmed the incident. The court's rules prohibit saving spots in line, and that's why the woman was asked to give the money back, although she doesn't face any charges.
Police investigate feud in ricin letters case
Oxford, Miss. • The investigation into poisoned letters mailed to President Barack Obama and others has shifted from an Elvis impersonator to his longtime foe, and authorities must now figure out if an online feud between the two men might have escalated into something more sinister.
Paul Kevin Curtis, 45, was released from a Mississippi jail Tuesday. Before Curtis left jail, authorities had already descended on the home of 41-year-old Everett Dutschke in Tupelo, a northeast Mississippi town best known as the birthplace of the King himself. On Wednesday, they searched the site of a Tupelo martial arts studio once operated by Dutschke, who hasn't been arrested or charged.
After being released from jail Tuesday, Curtis, described a bizarre, yearslong feud between the two, but Dutschke insisted he had nothing to do with the letters. They contained language identical to that found on Curtis' Facebook page and other websites, making him an early suspect.
Curtis said he's not sure exactly what led to the bad blood. It involves the men's time working together, a broken promise to help with a book by Curtis and an acrimonious exchange of emails, according to Curtis.
The two worked together at Curtis' brother's insurance office years ago, Curtis said.
For his part, Dutschke said he didn't even know Curtis that well.

You are here:
The Oregon State Legislature established the Oregon State Cancer Registry (OSCaR) in 1995. OSCaR is a population-based reporting system that collects and analyzes information about cancer cases occurring in Oregon. The first cancer cases were collected for diagnosis year 1996.Reportable cases include all cancers except specific forms of common, curable skin cancer and in situ cervical cancers. An in situ stage cancer is a tumor that is malignant but does not invade or penetrate surrounding tissue. These types of skin cancers and cervical cancer are considered 100% curable if the patient receives treatment. In addition, in situ cervical cancers are poorly distinguished from a number of benign conditions.
Cancer rates are based on invasive cases which exclude all in situ cases with the exception of bladder cancer. This means that the count of invasive cases reported in cancer rate tables may differ from the count of total cases reported elsewhere.
The crude rate is the number of cases divided by the population. It is called the crude rate because it is not comparable with any other population, nor is it comparable with the same population over time. It does not convey the true risk of cancer to a population. Because the risk of developing cancer increases with age, rates are age-adjusted to a national population standard. These adjusted rates convey the risk of cancer for populations with different age distributions. Cancer rates that are age-adjusted allow comparison of rates among different populations (i.e., counties or states). Crude rates should not be used for comparison purposes.
County level rates are published annually. However, interpretation of inter-county differences in the rates of cancers must be made with caution. There are many reasons why it is difficult to know if the differences in county rates reflect true differences in county risk.
These and other considerations can make it difficult to evaluate potentially alleviated cancer rates by geography. In addition, the more populated area (county) could mask any potential variation in a small geographic area (city). OSCaR is currently developing a Geographical Information System (GIS) to allow analysis of data for small areas. This is a new direction for the cancer registry, and only limited data are currently available.
Rates based on small numbers of cases or on a sparsely populated geographic area must be evaluated carefully. Chance variation is a common problem when the numbers used to calculate rates are extremely small. Large fluctuations often occur in rates based on small numbers that do not reflect real changes in the cancer burden of the underlying population.
Therefore, if the number of cancer events (new cases or deaths) is ten or fewer, the calculated rate is considered unstable. A carat (^) in a table denotes an unstable rate. When it is considered unstable, the rate is not shown. The number of cases, however, is still shown. Therefore, county rates for cancers with low incidence, such as cervical cancer, are calculated using a 5-year aggregate number.

Mostella, who hails from Alabama, is now at La Porte (Ind.) La Lumiere. At 6-foot-2 Mostella can really put points on the board in a hurry, and now will play for Travis Ford.
Alan Huss of La Lumiere has been very impressed with Mostella this season.
"He is as good a scorer as I have been around," said Huss. "He can make shots, is a great athlete, and is working hard at being more consistent every day."
Mostella was thought to be someone who would wait until the Spring signing period, but he informed Scout.com on Saturday evening that was no longer the case.
"I've been talking to my parents and my AAU coach, and they know where they want me to go and what is the best place for me, so I am just doing it for all my people," said Mostella.
Mostella hasn't yet visited Oklahoma State, but he plans to do so during the winter.
This is the fifth commitment for Oklahoma State in the 2013 class.

There will be no Off Leash Dog Area (Dog Park) Advisory Committee in Long Beach.
A motion proposed Tuesday by Councilwoman Gerrie Schipske to create the partially parenthetically-named committee, which would have laid out rules for the establishment and operation of off-leash dog areas, failed to gain a second supporter during Tuesday's City Council meeting.
Schipske said she brought the idea forward after hearing from residents interested in setting up more off-leash dog areas in city parks. She also said the difficulty a private group has had in building a dog park at El Dorado Park factored into the idea.
Several council members spoke against the plan, saying it would add another layer to an area of city government already handled by the Parks and Recreation Committee.
"I have a lot of faith in our park commissioners, and we're able to contribute to that discussion and the members of the public can as well," Councilwoman Suja Lowenthal said.
Long Beach has six dog parks and seemed headed toward adding a seventh late last year when the Parks and Recreation Committee voted to approve a dog park south of Spring Street near El Dorado Park at a city maintenance yard. Three other nearby sites were considered but rejected due to community concerns.
Friends of El Dorado Dog Park, the private nonprofit working with the city to build the park, has struggled to raise money for construction.
A representative of the group previously said she did not support the creation of the new committee.

Donor Sperm and blood group
Hi All,
How will I know what would be the blood group of the baby with donor sperm? Usually the blood group would be either of the parents. In this case, is there a way to know before hand?

If you know the blood type of the father, and you know the blood type of the mother, then you'll know exactly what blood types the child could have. The only time when you would know for sure what the blood type of the child will be is if the Mother and the Father are both blood type O.
Here's how it works...
Everyone has 2 antigens - a dominant genotype and a sub dominant genotype.
People who are blood type A can either be Aa (receiving an A from both parents) or Ao (receiving an A from one parent, and an O from the other). Anytime there is an O with another blood type, the O becomes recessive, and the other blood type becomes dominant.
People who are blood type B can be either Bb or Bo.
People who are blood type AB got an A from one parent and a B from the other. A and B are always dominant, so... there is not a subgenotype in this blood type. They express the A and B antigens equally.
In our family, I am AB and my husband is O. I only had an A or a B to give a child, and my husband only had an O to give (all O blood types are Oo, so only an "O" to give).
It's kind of funny because when my first midwife learned this, she said, "I suppose you could have a child with any blood type." Well that wasn't accurate (I learned in later years). Actually, my husband and I couldn't produce an AB child because my husband didn't have an A or a B to give, and we couldn't produce an O child because I didn't have an O to give. So we can only produce children who are either blood type A or blood type B (and we've had them all typed, and they are either A or B).
I also know that our A children are Ao and our B children are Bo - we can't create children that are Aa or Bb because my husband didn't have an A or a B to give.
I also know that my father is blood type A and I don't know what my mother was (she passed away). But I know that I'm AB and my sister is AB, so my mother had to have a B in her blood type. She was either blood type AB or B - I know she was not blood type A and I know she was not blood type O.
Kind of fun to figure these things out - it's like solving a puzzle (for those who enjoy solving puzzles).
Warm regards,

The biggest fucking joke in Ole Miss football history. Hired on to Ole Miss after they fired a great coach, David Cutcliffe, he took the Rebels on a trip down loser lane. He recruited great players and couldn't do shit with any of them. He now gets into bar fights in Baton Rouge and has sex with multiple prostitutes while masturbating to pictures of better college coaches. His impact on Ole Miss football was grave in that the coach that replaced him, Houston Nutt, had an array of talent to work with. But once that talent ran out, the Orgeron draft picks showed Nutt's true color. Nutt and Orgeron are soon to be best drinking buddies. Cheers
Preppy Ole Miss Ass Clown: Ed Orgeron sucks my ass! Houston Nutt is the greatest coach who has ever lived!
Dillon: Yeah says the team thats 4-8 two years after Orgeron left. Hmmmmm.....

text: SAN DIEGO ( TheStreet) -- Maintaining your vegan diet or yoga regimen is not always easy when traveling and staying at hotels for days or weeks on end. Unless of course you're staying at a luxury hotel -- one of the luxury hotels in the Trump Hotel Collection, to be exact. The collection recently debuted the Trump Wellness program, a triad of offerings for exercise and healthy and fast dining. "As we spoke with our restaurant chefs, and with banquets and with catering, the feedback we were getting is that luxury customers were looking for something that represented their lifestyle," explains Trump Hotel Collection Chief Operating Officer Jim Petrus. "The requests we've been getting signaled that this is something that is relevant to how people eat, and they consider wellness to be an important aspect in their day-to-day to lives." The first of the three new wellness offerings is called "Nourish" and includes the vegan, gluten-free and organic menu selections that have been added to in-room menus. The program also involved partnering with organic certifying companies to develop menu items made with certified organic ingredients that are often sourced locally and delivered daily. For example, at Trump National Doral Miami, the chef has arranged for a nearby farm to grow a variety of organic herbs and vegetables exclusively for the resort's use. At the Trump International Hotel Waikiki Beach Walk, the chef sources hydroponic lettuces from a farm in Kailua and orders organic vanilla bean ice cream from a historic business in Kauai. "The approach we took was really centered around full transparency," Petrus says. "Our personal belief is we think ultimately all menus in America will have some aspect of nutritional values associated with them. People today want to know what they are consuming. The consumer today is much savvier, they have a much greater knowledge and a much greater appreciation for organic food." "Quick Bites" is the express food element of the new wellness program. It involves an in-room menu made up of healthy food options with a guaranteed delivery time of 15 minutes or less.

Patricia Reilly Giff
About the Author
"I want to see children curled up with books, finding an awareness of themselves as they discover other people's thoughts. I want them to make the connection that books are people's stories, that writing is talking on paper, and I want them to write their own stories. I'd like my books to provide that connection for them."—Patricia Reilly Giff
Patricia Reilly Giff has recieved the Newbery Honor for Pictures of Hollis Woods and Lily's Crossing, which is also a Boston Globe–Horn Book Honor Book. Nory Ryan's Song was named an ALA Best Book for Young Adults and an ALA Notable Book.
What could be more wonderful than to write stories . . .
I spent my childhood reading in bed at night and early in the morning, and on long summer days under the tree in our yard. What could be more wonderful, I always thought, than to write stories that could make a reader fall in love with a character and laugh or cry over her adventures?
When did I start? Not soon enough! I was married and had three children. A snowy day and a husband who built a writing room from two skinny closets made me begin at last.
I agonized for weeks about what I would write, about that elusive protagonist that would make my readers want to spend hours of their lives following her imaginary life.
In my closet, I began to see Casey Valentine and Tracy Matson; Grace O'Malley came alive for me. And then the Kids of the Polk Street School danced into my head: Emily who reminded me of my daughter Alice, Beast who was very much like a boy I met in New Jersey, and Ms. Rooney—a teacher like myself who had good days and bad days, but who certainly loved her students. And, of course, there was the school amazingly like the one where I spent my days teaching.
I wanted to show readers that everyone has problems, that we're not alone . . .
During the last several years I've been writing more serious books . . . books that remind me of my own childhood, my own feelings. I wrote Lily' s Crossing because I remembered how terrified I was during the Second World War and All the Way Home because the specter of polio loomed over us each summer. I wanted to show readers that everyone has problems, that we're not alone.
I wrote Nory Ryan' s Song because my great-grandparents had lived through the Great Hunger of Ireland and I wanted to know more about it, more than the stories I had heard from family and from my distant cousins in Ireland. I learned as much as I could by going back to Ireland year after year; I wanted to put it all down on paper for my children and my grandchildren.
And then there was Pictures of Hollis Woods. I wrote that for my mother, and for me. Everything in the book has to do with both of us: the names of people my mother cared for—Beatrice, her best friend growing up; Henry, her cousin; Josie Cahill, her favorite aunt—and the house on the East Branch of the Delaware River that we both loved. Hollis was a foster child similar to many of the children I had worked with during my teaching years.
To tell children . . . there' s always hope
My book Maggie's Door is the story of Nory Ryan and Sean Mallon as they leave Ireland to take the long and terrible trip to America on one of the "coffin ships" during those famine years. I wrote it to remind readers of how hard immigrants, both past and present, struggle to make new lives for themselves. I wrote it to tell children that no matter how hard our lives are, there's always a chance for a new start. There's always hope.
"I always start each day by writing. That's like breathing to me," says Patricia Reilly Giff. In fact, this bestselling author admits: "I wanted to write from the first time I picked up a book and read. I thought it must be the most marvelous thing to make people dance across the pages."
Reading and writing have always been an important part of Patricia Reilly Giff's life. As a child, her favorite books included Little Women, The Secret Garden, the Black Stallion books, the Sue Barton books, and the Nancy Drew series. Giff loved reading so much that while growing up, her sister had to grab books out of her hands to get Giff to pay attention to her; later, Giff's three children often found themselves doing the same thing. As a reading teacher for 20 years, the educational consultant for Dell Yearling and Young Yearling books, an adviser and instructor to aspiring writers, and the author of more than 60 books for children, Patricia Reilly Giff has spent her entire life surrounded by books.
After earning a B.A. degree from Marymount College, Giff took the advice of the school's dean and decided to become a teacher. She admits, "I loved teaching. It was my world. I only left because I was overwhelmed with three careers—teaching, writing, and my family."
During the 20 years of her teaching career, she earned an M.A. from St. John's University, and a Professional Diploma in Reading and a Doctorate of Humane Letters from Hofstra University. Then one morning, Giff told her husband Jim, "I'm going to write a book. I've always wanted to write and now I shall." Jim worked quickly to combine two adjacent closets in their apartment into one cramped workspace and, as Giff jokes, she "began [her] career in a closet."
Giff explains, "I want the children to bubble up with laughter, or to cry over my books. I want to picture them under a cherry tree or at the library with my book in their hands. But more, I want to see them reading in the classroom. I want to see children in solitude at their desks, reading, absorbing, lost in a book."
Giff tries to write books "that say ordinary people are special." She says, "All of my books are based in some way on my personal experiences, or the experiences of members of my family, or the stories kids would tell me in school." Therefore, when she runs out of ideas for her books, Giff says, "I take a walk and look around. Maybe I spend some time in a classroom and watch the kids for a while. Sometimes I lie on the living room floor and remember my days in second grade or third. If all that doesn't work, I ask Ali, or Jim, or Bill"—Giff's children, whose names often appear in her books.
When she's not writing, Patricia Reilly Giff enjoys reading in the bathtub and going to the movies and eating popcorn. She and her husband reside in Weston, Connecticut. They have three children and five grandchildren. In 1990, Giff combined her two greatest loves—children's books and her family—and, with her husband and her children, opened The Dinosaur's Paw, a children's bookstore named after one of her Kids of the Polk Street School novels. This store is part of Giff' s quest to bring children and books together. She and her family are trying to "share our love of children's books and writing and to help others explore the whole world of children's books."
Throughout the year, Giff visits schools and libraries around the country and speaks to her readers about her books, and about writing. When discussing her work, Giff claims, "I have no special talent, you know. I never took a writing course before I began to write." She believes that "anyone who has problems, or worries, anyone who laughs and cries, anyone who feels can write. It's only talking on paper . . . talking about the things that matter to us."
Giff's Newbery Honor–winning novel, Lily's Crossing, is a vivid portrait of the home front during World War II. Fans of Giff's Kids of the Polk Street School series who are ready to tackle a more challenging book will love this funny, sad, but reassuring story.
Her book, All the Way Home, tells the touching story of Brick and Mariel, two 11-year-old friends who know firsthand about adversity, and together embark on a journey that brings them personal peace.
"Details . . . are woven with great effect into a realistic story of ordinary people who must cope with events beyond their comprehension."—Starred, The Horn Book Magazine
"Set during World War II, this tenderly written story tells of the war's impact on two children, one an American and one a Hungarian refugee. Giff's well-drawn, believable characters and vivid prose style make this an excellent choice."—School Library Journal
"Newbery Honor winner Giff weaves wisps of history into this wrenching tale of an Irish family sundered by the Great Potato Famine. . . . Riveting."—Starred, Kirkus Reviews
"Giff brings the landscape and the cultural particulars of the era vividly to life and creates in Nory a heroine to cheer for. A beautiful, heart-warming novel that makes a devastating event understandable." —Starred, Booklist
The Kids of the Polk Street School #6
"Humor and trials are portrayed through realistic characters and situations and natural dialogue."—School Library Journal
The Kids of the Polk Street School #10
"An affectionate picture of lower elementary students making their way through the ups and downs of classroom life."—Booklist
A Polk Street Special #6
"An easy-to-read chapter book for fans of the series, as well as for those planning a visit."—School Library Journal
"A solid book that accurately depicts many of the heartaches of the first days at a new school."—Kirkus Reviews

Mines researchers on 4 of 32 academic teams awarded $227 million in DoD funding
GOLDEN, Colo., July 20, 2010—The Department of Defense (DoD) has announced 32 awards – for a total of $227 million over five years – to academic institutions to perform multidisciplinary basic research. Colorado School of Mines is the lead institution on one of the awards and is a team member institution on three others.
"These are very important awards for the national agenda and another indicator of Mines' growing research profile," said John Poate, vice president of research and technology transfer at Mines.
Awards are subject to the successful completion of negotiations between the academic institutions and DoD research offices that will make the awards: the Army Research Office (ARO), the Office of Naval Research (ONR), and the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR).
The awards are the result of the fiscal 2010 competition that ARO, ONR, and AFOSR conducted under the DoD Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) program. The MURI program supports research by teams of investigators that intersect more than one traditional science and engineering discipline in order to accelerate both research progress and transition of research results to application. Most MURI efforts involve researchers from multiple academic institutions and academic departments. Based on the proposals selected in the fiscal 2010 competition, a total of 67 academic institutions are expected to participate in the 32 research efforts.
The MURI program is highly competitive. ARO, ONR, and AFOSR solicited proposals in 30 topics important to DoD and received a total of 411 white papers, which were followed by 152 proposals. The awards were selected based on merit review by panels of experts.
Andrew Herring, associate professor in the Colorado School of Mines Department of Chemical Engineering, will lead the selected project "An Integrated Multi-Scale Approach for Understanding Ion Transport in Complex Heterogeneous Organic Materials." Team member institutions will include the University of Chicago, University of Masschusetts-Amherst and University of California-Riverside.
Mines will team with other institutions on the following projects:
• Sound and Electromagnetic Interacting Waves
• Fundamental Research on the Biological Stability of Future Naval Fuels and Implications for the Biocorrosion of Metallic Surfaces
• Mathematical Modeling and Experimental Validation of Ultrafast Nonlinear Light-Matter Coupling Associated with Filamentation in Transparent Media

Wanted man posts mugshot, gets captured immediately
(NEWSER) – Note to those wanted by police: If your goal is not to get caught, it's probably not a good idea to "share" your mugshot on Facebook after the police departmentposts it. That's what Anthony James Lescowitch did Monday, police say; not surprisingly, the move led to the Pennsylvania man's arrest. The Freeland Police Department initially posted Lescowitch's mugshot asking anyone with knowledge of his whereabouts to alert authorities. Lescowitch then shared the mugshot and mocked police on his Facebook page ... and was arrested 45 minutes later.
