Crain's New York Business
By Charles Phillips
In 2012, New York City was not the Silicon Alley we know today. There was disappointingly little to show in the market when it came to technology talent. Yet, as CEO of Infor, a multi-billion-dollar software company with 16,000 employees, I somehow persuaded my Silicon Valley-based board of directors to let me move the company to New York City. While the local tech economy had a long way to go, many of our 90,000 customers regularly visit New York, the capital of the business world. There was a strong business case to move, but I knew it would require some significant investment in the local tech community to be sustainable.
Money magazine's "Best Colleges for Your Money 2017" puts five CUNY colleges in the top quarter of 711 schools, ranking Baruch College second overall, just after Princeton University and first in the country among the "Best Public Colleges." Also among the nation's leaders, according to the assessment, were CUNY's Brooklyn College, Queens College, Hunter College and John Jay College of Criminal Justice.
Top CUNY enrollment and admission officials will answer questions about New York State's new Excelsior Scholarship in a special Facebook Live information session on Thursday, July 13, at 6 p.m. The Excelsior Scholarship initiative will provide free tuition at CUNY and SUNY colleges to qualified students.
Chancellor James B. Milliken announced that a University initiative to increase timely graduation in four-year baccalaureate programs has produced its first graduate – a 19-year-old John Jay College of Criminal Justice student who earned his bachelor's degree in just two years.
Chancellor James B. Milliken today announced the appointment of Amy B. McIntosh, acting Assistant Secretary at the U.S. Department of Education in the Obama administration, as Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Strategy, a new role where she will be responsible for guiding implementation of the University's Strategic Framework and other important CUNY strategic objectives.
Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo named Manhattan attorney and small-business owner Kevin D. Kim to the Board of Trustees of The City University of New York effective July 1, 2017. He replaces Wellington Z. Chen, who served from 2000 to 2017.
The Trustees of The City University of New York passed a sweeping package of reforms of the university's governance and administrative policies, creating greater transparency and accountability and putting CUNY in the vanguard of reform efforts in higher education, Board Chairperson William C. Thompson, Jr. and Chancellor James B. Milliken announced.
The City University of New York today named Peter M. Cohen as interim president of Kingsborough Community College following the recent announcement that Farley Herzek, the president since 2014, is retiring. Cohen will serve while the Board of Trustees conducts a search for a permanent replacement.
"For decades, it has been a matter of pride and policy that The City University of New York has been among the most inclusive universities in the country, welcoming and benefiting enormously from our diversity, which includes every underrepresented group and especially the LGBT community.

I prefer slow, immersive travel experiences. In the Summer of 2015 I went on my first trip to Europe, and tried out solo cycle touring. It was amazing and I found it very well suited for my tastes. Since then I have been on more cycling adventures in other countries and within India too. Writing details about these trips is time consuming and it typically happens only after the trip is over. Sometimes I get caught up with other stuff then it doesn't happen at all. So, I have created this post to quickly jot down notes. As and when I write detailed blog posts I will link back here, so this becomes one big repository of my cycling experiences.
Also added articles on cycling gear, other logistical stuff and interviews with cyclists, they have been listed right at the end. All trips are solo unless otherwise stated.Continue reading

Mae Jaem: White Water Odyssey
The tour is offered by Mr. Wiboon and his wife, "Boong", who are the young couple managing the Mae Sot Conservation Tours, a local operator in Mae Sot, Tak Province. Information and reservations can be made at Tel. (6655) 532 818
The trip begins on the river near the Tak-Mae Sot Highway, about 30 km west of Mae Sot District and 57 km east of Tak. Tourists can go rafting all year in the Mae La Mao River but during the rainy season rather than being white water, the water is red from the muddy runoff.
The Mae Sot tour includes visits to interesting sights such as the Thai-Myanmar border market, Magic Land, the shrine of Pha Wo, a meal and, of course, rafting on a rubber boat.
On the lookout for additional adventure routes, the Mae Sot Conservation Tour has launched white water rafting in Chiangmai Province. There are two river tours fro two different target markets planned for this forthcoming high season. White water rafting can be either very adventurous bumping over grade 4 or 5 rapids or the river ride can be as smooth as sitting in the bathtub for a soft tourism adventure when the participants' ages might range from 4 to 5 years old or senior family members.
Starting off the tour is a nature study of Doi Inthanon at 2,565 meters above sea level. Most of the year the mountain top is covered with fog. The great beauty that abounds on this mountain is awesome. The visitors' center is filled with photos and information.
How many of us have ever stopped to appreciate what a marvel of nature the topography of Thailand is. The mountain tops are where the fallen leaves decompose from the continuous sun and rain. During the heavy rainy season some of the rich soil washes down the mountainsides, flowing down to the plains. There the water sits in the lowland. The rich soil is the natural fertilizer needed to grow the rice. The standing water partially dehydrates or gradually flows into the major rivers and then into the ocean.
Now what happens to the natural cycle when so many trees have been cut down? The lowland agriculture area is disturbed while man constructs buildings and dams in the natural agriculture areas. Man ends up fighting the forces of nature to turn the acreage into his idea of a modern livable civilized habitat that for thousands of years was a perfect agriculture sight. As we are finding out, controlling nature is not an easy thing to do. Such is the information visitors are given throughout the tour.
Before continuing on the tour, guests stop in a dense forest and the guide informs everyone about the living floor of the forest. For example many chestnuts covered with sharp needles are pointed out to us. These are a favorite food for wild boars. How do they ever get through the sharp needle covering? Guests are shown an award winning tree towering proudly above us. Its tree trunk is completely covered with orchids and ferns. The tour continues on to Mae Jaem district for lunch. Then everyone is ready for rubber rafting downstream on the Mae Jaem River. The destination is nearly at the end of The Ob-Luang National Park. The one-day outing is especially for those with a spirit of adventure allowing for a possible spill now and then. The river has some exciting grade 4 rapids and navigating the rapids without turning over takes teamwork.
The second rubber rafting destination is a rendezvous with nature. This tour takes two days with one night for the adventurers to camp in tents on the banks of the river. Whereas tour one departs from a small village on a major road, the river departure of the second tour option is at the end of a 15 km off road adventure drive.
The pathway for the 4-wheel drive vehicle skirts the side of the mountain and looks down into the valley. The Mae Jaem river is always in sight -- sometimes quietly flowing and sometimes crashing around the huge boulders in the river. This is a 15 km drive of sheer beauty. After this wild ride, the thought of rafting on a peaceful river is something to really look forward to enjoying.
The best way to truly appreciate the quiet and pristine nature on the two day tour is out on a raft where one can look straight up into the towering trees. The trunks and branches of hundreds of trees are the hosts to fragrant, wild orchids and large stag horn ferns. Here stand majestic wild mango trees with mango fruit no larger than a plum. Another tree seen often on the river banks is water loving 'ma deua'. It's a good tree to know because its colorful fruit goes into a type of jungle curry dish.
Khun Wiboon is an expert on the ecology of northern Thailand. We came upon one part of the river where the overhanging tree branches touch each other in the middle of the river. Khun Wiboon told us that during the trips on the Mae La Mao River in Mae Sot occasionally gibbons will be jumping across through the branches overhead. When the rafts suddenly pass under them, the gibbons are startled and lose their concentration for just a few seconds. Instead of catching the branch they miss it completely and plop into the river. It's an amusing sight for everyone to watch the gibbons as they hurriedly swimming about in the river.
For the moment, here on the Mae Jaem it's so peaceful. Hawks soaring overhead, "takuad" lizards sunning themselves on drift wood and kingfishers skimming the river are a common sight. Although this area may not be ranked as one of the eight wonders of the world, it's nice to know such beauty is so close at hand here in northern Thailand. The sight of hillsides covered with long flowing grass are wonders to behold.
There's more to rubber rafting than just admiring the scenery. Everyone is instructed on how to wear a helmet and life jacket. Life jackets are checked to see that all buckles are secure. Rafters are also informed how to handle an emergency if they do fall out of the raft. It's really all part of the fun, so don't panic. Just enjoy!!
This experience in the great outdoors certainly will be an excellent reminder for all of us to be more careful with our environment. The plastic bag you throw out that misses the trash can gets caught up in the sewer and flushes out to the spoil a river located 50 kms from the city. Plastic bags and litter destroy the habitat of the fish and frogs. So next time, please take a few minutes to go back to pick up the refuse with the thought you are doing your part to preserve our beautiful earth.

Oven Roasted Tomato Sauce
Recipe by C.C619
I have used this recipe for years and it never fails. I usually make it in the summer as we usually have a vegetable garden and always end up with too many tomatoes, I then make in batches,for the freezer. I use a lot of garlic in this recipe but thats because we love it and the garlic sweetens in the roasting process. I have strained the sauce at times to remove the seeds. Though most people don't mind tomato seeds.
Top Review by Curvycook
I ALWAYS make my own spagetti sauces, however,I used canned or homemade stewed tomatoes, but I digress. well one day at work, we had to make roasted tomatoes and I was snooping on food.com to see if there was anything good, and I came accross this recipe, and thought next time I make spagetti or need tomato sauce for anything I will have to try it. I have now made this twice. WOW it makes an excellent flavor in my already prefected spagetti sauce, this recipie has only made it better. I will never, NEVER make any sauce without using this as my base. thanks for sharing. Should have more stars :)

Ahold Names CEO
Former IKEA Chief Anders Moberg takes control of troubled chain.
AMSTERDAM -- Royal Ahold NV ended its two-month search for a new chairman and chief executive, naming a former Ikea International CEO to the job.
Ahold said Anders Moberg, a chief executive of the big Netherlands-based furniture retailer IKEA from 1986 to 1999, would take over the helm at Ahold on Monday. Moberg is also the former head of U.S. home improvement retailer Home Depot Inc.'s international division.
Moberg replaces supervising chairman Heny de Ruiter, who is also chairman of the company's supervisory board. De Ruiter temporarily took the helm after Cees van der Hoeven, Ahold's long-time CEO, stepped down in February after revealing that accounting irregularities at a U.S. unit led to earnings being inflated by around 500 million euros.
In a statement, Moberg said that he's "convinced that we can get Ahold on the right track again."
Ahold operates 212 convenience stores under the Wilson Farms, Sugarcreek and Tops Xpress banners, and eight B-Kwik Food Markets in New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio. The company also operates U.S. Foodservice and more than 2,000 supermarkets under brands such as Stop & Shop and Giant Foods in the U.S market, as well as Peapod the Internet-based grocery delivery network.

In 1942, Japan entered the Second World War by attacking Pearl Harbour. In 1945, US forces dropped two atomic bombs on Japan, and eventually encouraged the Japanese Emperor to surrender, ending the combat phase of the Second World War. Allied Forces, including New Zealanders, Australians, Canadians, and Indians, entered Japan as an occupying force, to restore the peace, clean debris from the atomic blast, help rebuild and direct Japan into a democratic society. Initially called BCOF (British Commonwealth Occupation Force), they became known as J Force. Some of the New Zealand troops were sent to Japan direct from Italy, and many went from New Zealand. The last New Zealand J Force troops returned home in 1948. Some would return to the area in 1950 on R&R during the Korean War.
This site contains personal accounts of J Force veterans, snapshots from their albums, advice on assistance, and contact details for local organisations.

Ummmmm.......... it might help if you gave us a bit more of an explanation as to the circumstances of the crash.
I like most other people here do not have the required degree in advanced heiroglyphics to be able to decipher a windows dump report and tell you exactly what the problem is and how to fix it based on that information alone.
Seriously though, If you could give us some more information on the issue I'm sure there is someone here that can at least point you in the right direction if not help solve the issue for you.
Nov 1, 2010 at 4:33 UTC
Sorry but you need to give some easily readable information otherwise you will not get any help.
Nov 1, 2010 at 4:47 UTC
Perhaps booting into Safe Mode and seeing if the error occurs, would be a good starting point?
1. What have you installed recently?
2. Any updates or new drivers?
Nov 1, 2010 at 5:27 UTC
Oh yes u can clearly see whats happening there
windows explorer crashes

Rather use Firefox or Chrome.
Uninstall IE and reinstall, it could be a plugin so check those out too.

FISHER, Circuit Judge.
This case originates from the issuance of two citations by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration ("OSHA") to Beverly Healthcare-Hillview ("Beverly") for failure to compensate employees for travel expenses and non-work time spent receiving treatment pursuant to the Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, which requires employers to make treatment available "at no cost to employees" for occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens. Beverly challenged these citations, arguing that the "at no cost" provision should be read narrowly and did not include such costs. The ALJ disagreed and upheld the citations. Beverly appealed to the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission ("Commission"), which reversed, finding that Beverly did not have fair notice of the Secretary of Labor's ("Secretary") broad interpretation. The Secretary timely filed a petition for review. For the reasons that follow, we will grant the petition and vacate the decision of the Commission.
In 1970, Congress adopted the Occupational Safety and Health Act ("OSH Act")
In 1991, the Secretary promulgated the Bloodborne Pathogens Standard ("BPS"), 29 C.F.R. § 1910.1030, pursuant to a specific Congressional directive aimed at combating "occupational exposures to the hepatitis B virus, the human immunodeficiency virus and other bloodborne pathogens." Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, Pub.L. No. 102-170 § 100, 105 Stat. 1107, 1113 (1992). In drafting the BPS, the Secretary acted under the authority granted by the OSH Act to
29 U.S.C. § 655(b)(7). The BPS applies to all "occupational exposure" which might be "reasonably anticipated [to lead to employee] contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials." 29 C.F.R. § 1910.1030(a), (b). Such "exposure incidents" include "needlesticks," one of a number of events that involve "piercing mucous membranes or the skin barrier." Id. § 1910.1030(b). Pursuant to subsection (f)(1)(i) of the BPS, "[t]he employer shall make available the hepatitis B vaccine and vaccination series to all employees who have occupational exposure, and post-exposure evaluation and follow-up to all employees who have had an exposure incident." Additionally, under subsection (f)(1)(ii),
Id. § 1910.1030(f)(1)(ii). The preamble to the BPS explains the impetus for requiring employers to pay for the costs of their employees exposure incidents. It states:
56 Fed.Reg. 64, 153 (1991).
OSHA has subsequently issued a series of compliance directives, stating that "[t]he term `at no cost to the employee' means, among other things, no `out-of-pocket' expense to the employee." See OSHA Compliance Directive CPL 2-2.69; CPL 2-2.44C; CPL 2-2.44D.
Beverly owns and operates a nursing home in Altoona, Pennsylvania. Beverly employs approximately 110 people including Vicki Pacovsky and Darryl Kosanovich, both of whom work as nurses at the nursing home. On December 8, 2002, Pacovsky received a "needlestick" while at the workplace, and on January 4, 2004, Kosanovich also received a "needlestick" while at work. Each sought treatment at the end of his or her respective shift at a designated off-site medical facility, and each returned to the off-site facility for periodic follow-up treatment during non-work hours. Beverly paid for the cost of the medical evaluations and procedures, but did not reimburse the employees for the non-work hours they spent receiving either the initial or follow-up treatments. Beverly also did not compensate the employees for travel time or expenses with respect to these treatments.
After each incident, OSHA inspected the workplace and issued an "other-than-serious" citation for violation of 29 C.F.R. § 1910.1030(f)(1)(ii)(A), due to Beverly's failure to provide post-exposure evaluation and testing "at no cost to the employee."
On March 28, 2005, the ALJ issued a decision and order upholding the citations. She held that the "at no cost" language required Beverly to pay for travel time and expenses. She also held that Beverly was required to compensate Pacovsky and Kosanovich for the non-work time they
Based on this analysis, the ALJ determined that the term "at no cost to the employee" was clear and unambiguous, and that regardless, any ambiguity was resolved by the Secretary's reasonable interpretations as set forth in the current OSHA compliance directive, two predecessor directives, and the 1999 OSHA opinion letter. She also found that the Secretary had provided constitutionally adequate notice that the BPS required employers to compensate employees for the travel expenses and non-work time related to their evaluation and treatment. She therefore ordered Beverly to reimburse Pacovsky and Kosanovich for the time spent receiving evaluation and treatment during non-work hours and for travel expenses.
The Commission granted Beverly's petition for discretionary review. A two-member majority found that the "at no cost" provision of the BPS was ambiguous, but that the Secretary's interpretation — that "cost" included non-work time and travel expense — was reasonable. Despite this finding, the majority held that neither the BPS itself, nor any other materials available to Beverly, explained with "ascertainable certainty" that the BPS required employers to compensate employees for travel costs and non-work time, and thus, the Secretary had failed to provide "fair notice" of its interpretation. The lone dissenting member of the Commission agreed with the majority that the provision was ambiguous and that the Secretary's interpretation was reasonable, but stated that the 1999 OSHA opinion letter provided sufficient notice of the Secretary's interpretation to allay due process concerns. The Secretary timely filed a petition for review.
We exercise jurisdiction over the Secretary's petition for review pursuant to 29 U.S.C. 660(b). We accord "substantial deference" to the Secretary's interpretation of a regulation promulgated by her agency. Martin v. Occupational Safety and Health Review Comm'n, 499 U.S. 144, 150, 111 S.Ct. 1171, 113 L.Ed.2d 117 (1991). "[T]he Commission, and ultimately the court of appeals, review the Secretary's interpretation to assure that it is consistent with the regulatory language and is otherwise reasonable." Id. at 156, 111 S.Ct. 1171. We will decide all relevant questions of law, and interpret constitutional and statutory provisions. 5 U.S.C. § 706. In addition, we will "hold unlawful and set aside agency action, findings, and conclusions found to be arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, or otherwise not in accordance with law." Id. § 706(2)(A). Issues of law are subject to plenary review. Dole v. E. Penn Mfg. Co., 894 F.2d 640, 643 (3d Cir.1990).
Before we assess whether the Secretary's interpretation of the BPS is reasonable or whether Beverly had fair notice of that interpretation, we must determine whether the meaning of regulatory language
A regulation is ambiguous when it is "not free from doubt," Martin, 499 U.S. at 150, 111 S.Ct. 1171, and where no particular interpretation of the regulation is "compelled by the regulation's plain language or by other indications of the [agency's] intent at the time of promulgation of the regulation." Thomas Jefferson Univ. v. Shalala, 512 U.S. 504, 512, 114 S.Ct. 2381, 129 L.Ed.2d 405 (1994). Because the term "cost," as utilized in the BPS, has a number of common definitions and can "comfortably bear" multiple interpretations, see Auer v. Robbins, 519 U.S. 452, 461, 117 S.Ct. 905, 137 L.Ed.2d 79 (1997), the plain language of the BPS does not compel any one particular interpretation. Cf. Verizon Communications, Inc. v. F.C.C., 535 U.S. 467, 500, 122 S.Ct. 1646, 152 L.Ed.2d 701 (2002) ("The fact is that without any better indication of meaning than the unadorned term, the word `cost'... is `a chameleon,' ... a `virtually meaningless' term...."). Moreover, aside from the statement in the preamble to the BPS generally stressing the importance of the "at no cost" provision in achieving the goals of the OSH Act, neither party has pointed to any indication contemporaneous with promulgation unequivocally stating the agency's intent to interpret the provision in a particular way. Therefore, and for the reasons that follow, we conclude that the Commission did not err in determining that the language of the BPS is ambiguous.
Beverly argues that the regulation is not ambiguous and that it "fully complied with the plain language of the [BPS]." Beverly contends that the "at no cost" language unambiguously includes only the cost of post-exposure evaluation and follow-up and does not encompass compensation for non-work time or travel expenses. Beverly correctly observes that the BPS does not specifically direct employers to compensate employees for their time or travel expenses. While the Secretary interprets the term "cost" to encompass travel expenses and non-work time, Beverly alleges, without citation, that "[t]he ordinary meaning of `cost' is the amount charged to purchase goods or services." In Beverly's view, employees have not been "charged" for non-work time or travel expenses, and are therefore not entitled to be compensated for these sums.
Beverly proffers the mandatory declination form required by the BPS as evidence that "cost" is meant to encompass only "charges" for goods and services. The form reads, in relevant part:
However, as our sister circuit noted in construing a similar provision of the inorganic arsenic standard, "`cost' has many common meanings." Phelps Dodge v. Occupational Safety and Health Review Comm'n, 725 F.2d 1237, 1239 (9th Cir. 1984) (Phelps Dodge II). Some of these meanings include "`the amount or equivalent paid or given or charged ...,'`whatever must be given, sacrificed, suffered, or foregone to secure a benefit ...,' and `the expenditure or outlay of money, time or labor....'" See Sec'y of Labor v. Phelps Dodge Corp., 11 O.S.H. Cas. (BNA) 1441, 1444 (Rev. Comm'n 1983) (Phelps Dodge I) (citing Webster's Third New International Dictionary (1971)). In Phelps Dodge I, the Commission adopted the Secretary's broad interpretation of "cost," an interpretation virtually identical to the one proffered here, holding that "employees given examinations during non-working hours" have incurred a "cost" cognizable under the regulation and should "be paid for their time." Phelps Dodge I, 11 O.S.H. Cas. (BNA) at 1444. In addition, the Commission found that "[e]mployees who are not reimbursed for extra transportation expenses incur a `cost' in the plainest and most natural sense of the word." Id. The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed. See Phelps Dodge II, 725 F.2d at 1240.
With respect to Beverly's other arguments, the term "at no charge" in the declination letter is nearly as susceptible to broad or narrow interpretations as the term "at no cost." The terms "charge" and "cost," as used in this context, are functionally more similar than they are different. A "charge" is an "expenditure or expense incurred," which might naturally include travel expenses and compensation for non-work time. Webster's Third New International Dictionary 377 (1971). Moreover, Beverly's reliance on the existence of the "without loss of pay" phrase in regulations other than the BPS is misplaced for purposes of determining whether the plain language of the BPS is itself ambiguous.
In light of this, we agree with the unanimous view of the Commission that the language of the "at no cost" provision of the BPS is ambiguous, and therefore, as "the regulatory language is not free from doubt," we will "give effect to the [Secretary's] interpretation so long as it is reasonable." Martin, 499 U.S. at 150, 111 S.Ct. 1171. It is that question to which we now turn.
The Secretary maintains that her interpretation of the BPS's "at no cost" language to include compensation for non-work
We agree with the Commission that the Secretary's broad interpretation of the "at no cost" provision is reasonable. The Secretary's interpretation is based on an accepted dictionary definition of the term "cost" and does not impermissibly strain the plain language of the regulation. Moreover, as explained by the Commission, the Secretary's broad interpretation comports with the BPS's purpose in encouraging employees to seek evaluation and treatment for occupational exposure. Plainly, compensating employees for their time and effort in undergoing testing and evaluation is an effective way to ensure that employees who have potentially been exposed to a bloodborne pathogen pursue testing.
Before us, Beverly argues that even if the Commission correctly determined that the "at no cost" provision is ambiguous, the Secretary's interpretation is nonetheless unreasonable. First, Beverly argues that the Secretary's interpretation "fails to comport with the purpose and wording in the [BPS]." Curiously, Beverly does not directly address the Secretary's contention that "cost" can reasonably be interpreted as "the expenditure or outlay of money, time or labor." Nor does it make any other argument specifically contending that the language of 29 C.F.R. § 1910.1030(f)(1)(ii)(A) cannot "comfortably bear[ ]" the meaning assigned by the Secretary. See Auer, 519 U.S. at 461, 117 S.Ct. 905.
Instead, Beverly asserts that it is the Secretary's position that the source for any requirement that an employer must compensate its employees for non-work time and travel expenses would be § 1910.1030(f)(1)(ii)(B), the "[m]ade available to the employee at a reasonable time and place" provision. Building on this premise, Beverly contends that because it was cited only for violation of subsection (f)(1)(ii)(A) — the "at no cost" provision — and not for violation of subsection (f)(1)(ii)(B), it would be improper to impose costs that could only arise, pursuant to its characterization of the Secretary's position, under (f)(1)(ii)(B).
This argument is a straw man and a mischaracterization of the Secretary's position. The Secretary does not actually argue that the "at a reasonable time and place" provision is the source of the requirement that employers must compensate employees for non-work time and travel expenses. Throughout her brief, the Secretary repeatedly argues that the "at no cost" provision is the source of the requirement. The Secretary cites subsection (f)(1)(ii)(B) only for the proposition that while "it may be reasonable for an employer to require an employee to seek post-exposure evaluations and procedures during non-work time," under subsection (f)(1)(ii)(B), "[i]t is not reasonable, however, to shift the cost of that choice onto an employee" under subsection (f)(1)(ii)(A). Since it is the cost, and not the reasonable availability of evaluation and treatment that is at issue here, it is plainly the Secretary's interpretation of subsection (f)(1)(ii)(A) that matters. Therefore, Beverly's argument that it was not cited for a
Consequently, the Commission did not err when it determined that the Secretary's interpretation of the "at no cost" provision was reasonable and consistent with the language and purpose of the regulation.
As explained previously, a two-member majority of the Commission determined that Beverly did not have fair notice of the Secretary's broad interpretation of the BPS, despite finding that it was a reasonable interpretation. Specifically, the majority concluded that neither the regulation itself, its preamble, nor any other documentation issued by the Secretary explained with "ascertainable certainty" what the BPS requires, relying on the standard laid out in Gates & Fox Co. v. Occupational Safety and Health Review Comm'n, 790 F.2d 154, 156 (D.C.Cir.1986) (citing Diamond Roofing Co. v. Occupational Safety and Health Review Comm'n, 528 F.2d 645, 649 (5th Cir.1976)). The majority considered, but discounted, the premise that the 1999 OSHA opinion letter, which stated that travel expenses are compensable and that an employee is considered "on-duty" when receiving evaluation or treatment, provided sufficient notice of the Secretary's interpretation of the BPS. It discounted the 1999 letter in part because it was, in its eyes, "at odds" with a 1987 Department of Labor letter interpreting the Fair Labor Standards Act ("FLSA letter"), which stated that "[i]n order for time spent waiting for or receiving medical attention or treatment to be compensable, the visit to the doctor must be at the direction of the employer and it must occur during the employees's normal work hours on days when the employee is working." The majority stated that regardless, the Secretary had ample opportunity to "formalize" her opinion on the matter, and that even without the "conflicting" FLSA letter, the most recent compliance directives were "studiously vague" in interpreting the provision.
The dissenting member of the Commission disagreed, concluding that the 1999 OSHA opinion letter militated for a finding of fair notice. The dissent observed that the letter predated the cited conduct, and directly addressed both travel expenses and non-work time compensation. The dissent questioned the majority's reliance on the FLSA letter, noting that it was promulgated by a different agency under a different statute, likely mitigating much of the possible confusion it might have caused. The dissent, relying on Corbesco v. Sec'y of Labor, 926 F.2d 422, 428 (5th Cir.1991), suggested that, moreover, even if the two letters created some confusion, they at least provided "enough notice such that Beverly should have inquired of
Beverly argues that the Commission correctly determined that Beverly lacked constitutionally adequate notice because neither the regulation nor any other documents explained, with "ascertainable certainty," that compensation of non-work time and travel expenses was required by the BPS. Beverly asserts that "if the term `cost' is ambiguous, the [BPS] is unconstitutional because it fails to give notice of what is required of employers." Although we have indeed determined that the "at no cost" provision is ambiguous in this context, this alone is not sufficient to deprive Beverly of fair notice.
We have previously cited with approval the line of cases enunciating "ascertainable certainty" as the applicable standard for fair notice. See Dravo Corp. v. Occupational Safety and Health Review Comm'n, 613 F.2d 1227, 1232 (3d Cir.1980) (citing Diamond Roofing, 528 F.2d at 649). But, as the Court of Appeals for the First Circuit explained in United States v. Lachman, that line of cases
387 F.3d 42, 57 (1st Cir.2004). Here, because the Secretary has not given "conflicting interpretations" of the BPS and has provided "a sufficient, publicly accessible statement of her interpretation" prior to the issuance of the two citations in question, Beverly's fair notice argument fails.
First, the 1999 OSHA opinion letter adequately and publicly stated the Secretary's position that "[transportation cost[s] must be covered by the employer" and that "employees must be considered `on-duty'" when receiving post-exposure treatment. Beverly argues that this letter is insufficient to provide fair notice because the letter "fails to comport with the wording in the [BPS]." In effect, Beverly contends that because the "at no cost" provision is open to interpretation, it does not clearly require compensation for travel expenses or non-work time, and therefore, the 1999 interpretation letter incorrectly interpreted the BPS. This argument is circular. It is precisely because the regulation is ambiguous that it must be interpreted, and the Secretary here has provided such an interpretation. As such, the agency has not "failed to provide a sufficient, publicly accessible statement" that the BPS required Beverly to compensate its employees for travel expenses and non-work time. Lachman, 387 F.3d at 57.
The decisions in Phelps Dodge I and II provided additional notice to Beverly that
725 F.2d at 1239. Thus, regardless of some variation in language between the BPS and the inorganic arsenic standard,
Finally, Beverly argues that certain other statements of the Secretary either did not themselves provide fair notice, or in fact deprived it of fair notice by creating confusion with respect to its authoritative interpretation of the BPS, in effect creating "conflicting public interpretations of the regulation." See Lachman, 387 F.3d at 57. First, Beverly points to the compliance directives issued by the Secretary which state that "[t]he term `at no cost to the employee' means, among other things, no `out-of-pocket' expense to the employee."
Covering now familiar ground, Beverly also contends that the "without loss of pay" provisions present in a number of other OSHA standards, see, e.g., 29 C.F.R. § 1910.1052(j)(2) (OSHA's methylene chloride standard provides that "[t]he employer shall provide all required medical surveillance at no cost to affected employees, without loss of pay and at a reasonable time and place"), themselves created confusion sufficient to deprive it of fair notice of the Secretary's interpretation. Beverly argues it relied on the absence of this provision in the BPS in assuming that the BPS did not require compensation for travel expenses and non-work time. However, while the meaning of this provision and the reasons for its absence from the BPS are debatable, the question before us is not whether Beverly properly interpreted the "without loss of pay" provision or the meaning of its absence from the BPS. The question is whether the absence of a "without loss of pay" provision would be so confusing as to deprive Beverly of notice, given the availability of the 1999 OSHA opinion letter and the Phelps Dodge decisions. We do not believe that Beverly was deprived of fair notice. The 1999 OSHA opinion letter specifically addressed the issues in this case, and moreover, the Phelps Dodge II decision expressly relied on the interpretation of the "at no cost" provision, despite the presence of a "without loss of pay" provision in the inorganic arsenic standard. Thus, it was clear that presence or absence of the "without loss of pay" provision did not affect the Secretary's interpretation of "cost."
Beverly finally points to the FLSA letter, cited by the Commission in its decision, in asserting that it was deprived of fair notice due to substantial confusion among the Secretary's pronouncements. Beverly goes so far as to contend that the FLSA letter is in "direct conflict" with the Secretary's interpretation here. However, this letter, which does not address compensation for travel expenses at all, was issued by a different agency and concerned a different regulation, which was promulgated under a different statute. Moreover, it predates the 1999 OSHA opinion letter. Therefore, because the FLSA letter does not truly conflict with the 1999 OSHA opinion letter, we disagree with the Commission's majority opinion that it deprived Beverly of fair notice. The FLSA letter interprets a regulation only tenuously related to the issue here, and at any rate, the 1999 OSHA opinion letter, which directly addresses the BPS and the "at no cost" provision, occurred later in time and would have superceded any contravening effect of the FLSA letter interpretation. Beverly could not have been so confused by the FLSA letter that it was deprived of
In sum, the combination of the 1999 OSHA opinion letter and the decisions in the Phelps Dodge case provided sufficient notice of the Secretary's interpretation of the "at no cost" provision of the BPS to alleviate due process concerns. While the directives, analogous regulations, and the FLSA letter may not have themselves provided sufficient notice, they did not so confuse the situation or conflict with the Secretary's other public pronouncements so as to deprive Beverly of fair notice, given the existence of the 1999 OSHA opinion letter and the decisions in the Phelps Dodge case. See Lachman, 387 F.3d at 57. Therefore, we conclude that Beverly had fair notice of the Secretary's reasonable interpretation of the "at no cost" provision of the BPS.
For the foregoing reasons, we will grant the petition for review, vacate the order of the Commission, and remand for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

State Plan
The state plan is the officially recognized document describing the nature and scope of the State of Texas Medicaid program. As required under Section 1902 of the Social Security Act, the plan was developed by the state and approved by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Essentially, the plan is the state's agreement that it will conform to the requirements of the Social Security Act and the official issuances of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Plan changes are submitted by the state to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as state plan amendments (SPAs). Through the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), HHS reviews each SPA to determine whether it meets federal requirements and policies. The plan is updated when CMS issues final approval of a SPA.
The plan on this website is for informational purposes only and is not legally binding. The official plan is maintained by CMS Region 6.
Once the plan file is opened, specific sections of the plan are accessible in one of two ways:

Rampant England dismiss Pakistan for 257
England ripped through Pakistan's lower order as the hosts lost their final three wickets for just one run to finish their first innings all out for 257 on the second day of the second test in Abu Dhabi on Thursday.
Stuart Broad snared captain Misbah ul-Haq (84) leg before wicket in the day's second over and James Anderson soon dismissed Saeed Ajmal and Junaid Khan for ducks as Pakistan lost their last three wickets in the space of seven balls.
Pakistan had resumed on 256 for seven, with ul-Haq unbeaten on 83, but the skipper added only a single to their overnight score before falling to Broad, the Nottinghamshire all-rounder's fourth wicket of the innings.
Anderson then claimed the scalp of Saeed Ajmal with a full delivery which angled towards middle and leg stump and trapped the batsmen lbw after he played and missed.
Three balls later, England claimed their first catch of the innings to wrap up the Pakistan tail, Junaid Khan edging a short ball from Anderson to Graeme Swann at second slip.

By Marlen Garcia, USA TODAY
DURHAM, N.C. Duke seniors Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith gushed about freshman Kyrie Irving weeks before the basketball season began.
Through seven games Irving has shown why he earned effusive praise from the duo that led Duke to its fourth national championship last spring.
Irving had 31 points Wednesday night in top-ranked Duke's 84-79 win against No. 6 Michigan State in an ACC/Big Ten Challenge game.
"My confidence has grown because of the trust my teammates have in me," said Irving, who was 8-for-12 from the field and 13-for-16 on free throws.
BOX SCORE: Duke 84, Michigan State 79
Barely three minutes into the second half, Duke (7-0) built a 10-point lead. The danger with Duke is that a 10-point lead can balloon to 20 in a heartbeat.
Nolan Smith added 17 points and Kyle Singler scored 15 for the Blue Devils. They shot 47%, turned 20 Michigan State turnovers into 28 points, used a 12-2 spurt midway through the second half to take a double-figure lead and held off the Spartans down the stretch by hitting nine of 12 free throws in the final 1:15.
Michigan State (5-2) didn't let that happen, fighting the whole way.
"I took more positives from this than negatives," Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said. "The turnovers are such a negative that it's hard to feel as good as I'd like to feel."
Michigan State had 12 of its 20 turnovers in the first half, and Duke converted the miscues into 22 points before intermission. Duke led 38-34 at the half.
Otherwise, MSU was productive behind reserve guard Korie Lucious, who scored 20 to go with eight assists. He compensated for early struggles by Kalin Lucas, Durrell Summers and Draymond Green.
Over the long haul, it's hard to see Michigan State being affected negatively by early losses.
The Spartans routinely hit bumps with a tough non-conference schedule. They lost last week to unbeaten Connecticut in the semifinals of the Maui Invitational. UConn also has an outstanding point guard in Kemba Walker, who scored 30 against the Spartans.
"I'm sick of seeing all these good guards, if you want the truth," Izzo said in a deadpan manner.
Trying to beat Duke in Durham is a daunting task. To get a handle on how tough it is, consider this: The Blue Devils have won an NCAA-best 81 consecutive non-conference home games, dating to a loss to St. John's on Feb. 26, 2000.
"I'd like to win a game here," Izzo said, "but now we're No. 81 that went down."
Mike Krzyzewski claimed the 875th victory of his Hall of Fame career to move one win behind Adolph Rupp, who's in third place on the all-time list.
Kalin Lucas added 14 points and Summers finished with 11 for Michigan State, which always seems to draw a tough assignment in this made-for-TV event.
This was the second consecutive year they had to face the reigning national champion on its home court. North Carolina claimed an 89-82 victory last year against the Spartans, who trailed by 19. And a year earlier, Michigan State suffered a 35-point loss to the Tar Heels at Ford Field.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- In the last few years investors have come to place a far greater importance on dividends than in recent past decades. Dividends of course represent a return of capital to investors, but they are not the only way to return capital. Companies can also buy back shares and retire debt. A new actively managed exchange-traded fund, Cambria Shareholder Yield ETF ( SYLD), focuses on stocks that are returning capital to shareholders in these three ways. Cambria hopes it will be an attractive proxy for a broad-based domestic equity fund. SYLD will own 100 stocks and charge a reasonable 0.59% expense ratio -- reasonable in relation to actively managed ETFs.
At the sector level, the fund is heaviest in financials, at 20%, followed by n consumer discretionary at 17% and technology at 15%. The sector allocation doesn't look much different than the SPDR S&P 500 ( SPY). The individual holdings look nothing like SPY, however. The 100 stocks are targeted to have equal weighting but the fund has a decidedly small cap orientation. The minimum market cap for inclusion is $200 million and 44% of the holdings have market caps below $5 billion. Companies are chosen through a proprietary algorithm that rates companies in paying dividends, buying back stocks and paying off debt. The fund's literature makes it very clear that just focusing on dividends is inferior to SYLD's approach of looking at all three metrics. Indeed to the extent it is not a dividend oriented fund, SYLD will only pay one dividend per year.
Like the AdvisorShares Cambria Global Tactical ETF ( GTAA), the firm's other ETF, there is plenty of research behind SYLD's methodology. SYLD's is built upon work done by Robert Shiller and, to a lesser extent, Jeremy Schwartz. They each conducted their own research to conclude that the above-mentioned free-cash-flow metrics provide superior returns. But again, SYLD should not be expected to have a high yield. Investors should buy the fund because they believe its strategy will provide superior returns going forward.

I was disappointed in this. I have found Cosabella's lace to be itchy in some of their their other products, but I didn't wear this long enough to find out. The cut seemed much more generous on me than in the picture. The thin back strap was surprisingly comfy. Although the minimal lining and complete lack of padding couldn't contain my nipples of steel. So I have to return it. I am a 34B or 36A and the Medium fit okay (although I think a Small would have been better).

Very pretty lace (not itchy on me at all), comfortable thin band, somewhat supportive for my B cup. The large fits nicely for my size 38 B.

So disappointed that this bra didn't work out! It is absolutely lovely when viewed from the front. I am a 34A and the small is the correct size for me. However, the band is cut in a way that does the impossible and makes my small chest look "droopy." Unfortunately I have to return.

I have an uncle that once told me on a car ride that you will win just as much money throwing it off a bridge as you will betting on horse races. This might have resonated more if I had not been on my way to drop him off at the OTB. Perhaps though my uncle felt this way because he had never placed an accumulator bet in northern England.
A man in northern England on Saturday placed a $1 accumulator wager on eight horse races at total odds of 2,000,000-1 at William Hill's shop in the town of Thrisk. He ended up winning all eight races and won a total of $1.97 million. The winners were priced at 8-1, 10-1, 15-2, 11-2 (2 times), 4-1, 7-2, and 5-2. The best part of this story is that the guy did not even know that he had won until Sunday morning when he called to place another accumulator bet. Nice way to get your day underway huh?
I cannot help but think with this dreary day in the northeast if maybe I should go place some bets myself at the OTB. Don't worry I do not live in New York City so even if I decide not to go today I can go for many years to come, maybe with my uncle.

I need to remove many instances of a specific server name from the registry of all my domain computers. Problem is, it seems that depending on how the server was/wasn't used in the past, in relation to the workstation, the registry keys are scattered in many different locations.
I have manually deleted the keys on a few workstations using regedit and Find/Find Next but would REALLY like to avoid doing this on all of my workstations.
Is there a way, a program, a script, that will "search" for this "server-name" text and delete the key anywhere it finds the text? I know I can remove keys by using " [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT_XXX]" but not knowing where exactly all of the different keys are makes it difficult. Again, they seem to be in many different locations, I'm sure there are several more that I haven't seen yet.
Thanks in advance.

Oxfam is helping small family coffee businesses
in western Honduras to thrive despite facing a
disease that attacks their crops. Esperanza Enriquez lost 75% of her coffee crop when her farm in western Honduras was hit a by disease called Coffee rust. As a result her income plummeted, but now Esperanza's farm is thriving. Oxfam provided Esperanza with the support she needed to rebuild her business, like new coffee farming techniques and how to make fertiliser. We also helped to set up a co-operative so local coffee farmers could join together to access the equipment they need to roast and package up their coffee. By cutting out the middle men they're able to earn more for their coffee. "The co-operative Oxfam helped us set up means I've been able to replant and move into toasting and packaging the coffee. With Oxfam's help I hope my future will be bright again."

As I am typing this sentence, the clock reads 12:01am.
This means two things: (1) I just finished bawling my eyes out watching the series finale of Friday Night Lights and (2) it is officially my 27th birthday.
Surprisingly, neither of these things make me sad.
First, I need to commend the producers of this most underrated TV show for ending its 5-season run by bringing all the storylines to a full close. I like neat, happy endings…and that is exactly what I got. I would still like to marry Tim Riggins, but that's another blog post for another day.
Second, I have this really good feeling 27 is going to be a much better year than 26.
Twenty-six was a long, trying year.
In work…in the love department…in the blogging + freelance writing world…in time…and in pretty much most aspects of my life. That's not to say there weren't a lot of highlights (A half-marathon run in a lace bra! A blog award! Europe!), but I spent a good majority of the last 365 days dangling in uncertainty, fending of crises, saying yes to a lot of unnecessary things and merely trying to tread water (and drink beer) in hopes of not completely drowning.
This all sparked some deep soul searching and self-analyzation.
Here is what I learned:
(1) If you blog about wearing swimsuit bottoms as underwear, your co-workers will find out and make fun of you. They'll also give you weird side glances when they think you're not looking.
(2) Don't date gay tap dancers. Just trust me.
(3) Stop talking about eating better…exercising more…taking time for yourself…saying no…getting more sleep…finishing your massive to-do list… and instead, save your energy and just make it happen. I'm working on taking my own advice on this one.
(4) The inability to say no to friends can result in double booking a 75-minute yoga class back-to-back with a 5-mile run. You will be sore for four days. It's not worth it.
(5) Family is the best. Call them just because. Same goes with friends.
(6) Don't try a juice fast (or do, but be prepared with back-up reuben egg rolls).
(7) Spicy Buffalo Hummus will help you forget about your 30-thing long to-do list. Warning: it will also cause you to add "Make more Spicy Buffalo Hummus" to that list.
(8) Prioritize, prioritize, prioritize!
(9) Being on TV has taught me that I overuse the word "ummm" and the phrase "kind of." I've officially added eliminating these bad habits to my 2012 New Year's resolutions list.
(10) If you're not happy doing what you're doing, CHANGE IT.
If you heed only one of my lessons, make it #10. It only took Mama Everythingtarian telling me this approximately 1,232,659 times before I finally started listening at the ripe ol' age of 26.
And that is why, at age 27, I am going back to school.
Next month, I am starting a two-year program in graphic design and could not be more excited. I don't quite have all the details figured out…I'll still be working full-time…I'm still going to blog as much as I can…I hope to be taking on more freelance writing projects…something will probably have to give…I could hate it…I could absolutely love it…I could very well end up losing my mind…and I will definitely be worse at responding to emails more than I already am.
But I'm giving myself a shot at doing something that makes me happy, which I happen to think is a pretty good birthday gift (along with this pair of trousers I bought for myself earlier today).
Sooo…happy birthday to me!

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer.
Georgia usury laws are ridiculously complex. In general, however, on a personal loan, the maximum interest rate is 7% simple interest per year, which equates to 0.5833% per month, not compounded. On $10,000 that would be $58.33 per month interest -- hardly worth the risk of making the loan without collateral.
A "penalty," whether characterized as such, or characterized as "interest," is unenforceable under the common law of contracts. Moreover, Georgia makes a charge in excess of 5% per month on a personal loan, a misdemeanor, which means, for $10,000, more than $500 per month in interest could get you a jail sentence.
Based on what you've described:
1. You loaned $10,000.00
2. Six weeks later the interest owed would be $80.77
3. You were paid $2,500. The balance is now $7,500.00 + $80.77 simple interest
4. Six weeks later the interest owed would be $60.58
5. You were paid $2,000. The balance is now $5,500.00 + $80.77 + $60.58 simple interest
