Lynn Haven, FL--It's a big rivalry game to end the season for Mosley and Rutherford. Those two will meet Thursday night at Tommy Oliver.
Both teams missing out on the state playoff berths in their respective districts. Let's focus on the Dolphins first. They were actually eliminated from the postseason a couple of weeks ago, yet last week, they came out and drilled Navarre 49-20. Obviously "playing for pride" really means something to the 'fins. Here's Mosley Head Coach Perry Brown: "This is a special group of kids. We have 21 seniors on this team and knowing they were out of the playoffs, and playing one of the tougher teams, if not the toughest team in the district and to beat 'em the way we did. I was very pleased and proud of my coaches and my players for getting out and doing the job they did last week."
With a win Thursday the Dolphins would finish a very difficult schedule with a 5-4 record.

Title: Identification, virulence, and mass spectrometry of toxic ECP fractons of West Alabama isolates of Aeromonas hydrophila obtained from a 2010 disease outbreak) AuthorWei Pridgeon, Yuping | |
Klesius, Phillip |
Submitted to: Aquaculture America Conference
Publication Type: Proceedings Publication Acceptance Date: 8/30/2013 Publication Date: 2/9/2014 Citation: Wei Pridgeon, Y., Klesius, P.H. 2014. Identification, virulence, and mass spectrometry of toxic ECP fractons of West Alabama isolates of Aeromonas hydrophila obtained from a 2010 disease outbreak. Proceedings Aquaculture America 2014. p. 423. Interpretive Summary: Technical Abstract: In West Alabama, disease outbreaks in 2009 caused by Aeromonas hydrophila have led to an estimated loss of more than $3 million. In 2010, disease outbreak occurred again in West Alabama, causing losses of hundreds of thousands of pounds of market size channel catfish. During the 2010 disease outbreak in West Alabama, four isolates of Aeromonas hydrophila were cultured from the kidney tissues of diseased channel catfish. Both analytical profile index (API) 20 E biochemical tests and 16S-23S rRNA sequencing results confirmed the four isolates as Aeromonas hydrophila. Virulence studies revealed that the four isolates were highly virulent to channel catfish by intraperitoneal injection, with LD50 value of ~ 1.3 × 105 CFU/fish. Extracellular proteins (ECPs) of A. hydrophila are well known to be toxic to fish. Therefore, ECPs of the four 2010 west Alabama isolates of A. hydrophila were characterized in this study. The ECPs of the four 2010 isolates were found to be toxic to channel catfish fingerlings, with LD50 value of 16 µg/fish. Thirty ECP fractions were obtained from the ECPs of the 2010 isolates of A. hydrophila by cation-exchange chromatography (Figure 1), of which nine fractions were found to be toxic to catfish gill cells and channel catfish fingerlings. Mass spectrometry identified 228 proteins from the nine toxic fractions, of which 23 were shared by toxic fractions, including well known virulence factors such as hemolysin, aerolysin, elastase (metalloprotease), nuclease, and 5'-nucleotidase. Hemolytic activity, protease activity, and nuclease activity of the four isolates were found to be significantly (P<0.05) higher than that of a reference A. hydrophila strain AL98-C1B. Our results might shed light on the possible virulence factors of the highly virulent West Alabama isolates of Aeromonas hydrophila. |

What is parliamentary privilege?
The term parliamentary privilege refers to special legal rights and immunities which apply to each House of the Parliament, its committees and Members. These provisions are part of the law of the Commonwealth. This Infosheet deals with the subject from the perspective of the House of Representatives, but the major details also apply to the Senate.
Why is it necessary?
The Houses of the Commonwealth Parliament, in common with other Parliaments, are given a special legal status because it is recognised that the tasks they have to perform require additional powers and protections. Special rights and immunities are necessary because of the functions of the House, for example, the need to be able to debate matters of importance freely, to discuss grievances and to conduct investigations effectively without interference.
Main features of the law and practice
Section 49 of the Commonwealth Constitution provides that, until declared by the Parliament, the powers, privileges and immunities of the Senate and the House of Representatives and the Members and committees of each House shall be those of the British House of Commons at the time of Federation (1901). It was not until 1987, and following a thorough review of the whole subject by a joint select committee, that the Commonwealth Parliament passed comprehensive legislation in this area.
The main features of the arrangements in the Commonwealth Parliament are as follows:
each House, its committees and Members enjoy certain rights and immunities (exemptions from the ordinary law), such as the ability to speak freely in Parliament without fear of prosecution (known as the privilege of freedom of speech)
each House has the power to deal with offences—contempts—which interfere with its functioning
each House has the power to reprimand, imprison or impose fines for offences
complaints are dealt with internally (within Parliament)—they may be considered by the Committee of Privileges and Members' Interests which will report to the House which may then act on the matter in light of the committee's report
there is a limited ability for decisions of the House to imprison people to be reviewed in court
the Parliamentary Privileges Act 1987 creates a special category of criminal offence in order to strengthen the protection available to witnesses who give evidence to parliamentary committees.
Parliamentary Privileges Act
The privilege of freedom of speech
The privilege of freedom of speech is often described as the most important of all privileges. Its origins date from the British Bill of Rights of 1689. Article 9 of the Bill of Rights provides:
That the freedom of speech and debates or proceedings in Parliament ought not to be impeached or questioned in any court or place out of Parliament.
As this was one of the privileges of the House of Commons in 1901, it was inherited by the House and the Senate under the terms of the Commonwealth Constitution. Section 16 of the Parliamentary Privileges Act preserves the application of the traditional expression of this privilege, but spells out in some detail just what may be covered by the term 'proceedings in Parliament'.
The practical effect of this is that those taking part in proceedings in Parliament enjoy absolute privilege. It is well known that Members may not be sued if they make defamatory statements when taking part in debates in the House, but the privilege is wider than that and, for instance, protects Members from being prosecuted if in a debate they make a statement that would otherwise be a criminal offence, for example, a Member who felt it necessary to reveal a matter which was covered by a secrecy provision in a law such as personal tax information.
The privilege of freedom of speech has been described as a 'privilege of necessity'. It enables Members to raise in the House matters they would not otherwise be able to bring forward (at least not without fear of the legal consequences). The privilege is thus a very great one, and it is recognised that it carries with it a corresponding obligation that it should always be used responsibly. Pressure from other Members, the public and the media would be brought to bear on Members who made accusations unfairly in the Parliament. There is also a procedure for individuals who have been offended by remarks made about them in the House to seek to have a response published. Infosheet No. 17 'Citizens' right of reply' provides details on this process.
The privilege of freedom of speech is not limited to Members of Parliament; it also applies to others taking part in 'proceedings in Parliament'. The most obvious example of others who may enjoy absolute privilege are witnesses who give evidence to committees. It is important to note that the privilege only applies to evidence given to properly constituted parliamentary committees, and does not, for instance, apply to party committees.
There is a difference between absolute and qualified privilege. Qualified privilege exists where a person is not liable for an action for defamation if certain conditions are fulfilled, for example, if a statement is not made with malice. Newspapers which report debates in Parliament rely on qualified privilege. Absolute privilege, on the other hand, exists where no action may be taken at all, even if, for example, a statement is made with malice.
As well as proceedings in Parliament being absolutely privileged, the House, and properly constituted committees, may confer absolute privilege on various papers by authorising their publication. Parliamentary committees often use this power to authorise the publication of submissions and transcripts of evidence given to inquiries. The Parliamentary Papers Act also extends absolute privilege to the Hansard record of proceedings. The Parliamentary Proceedings Broadcasting Act does the same in relation to the official broadcast, but absolute privilege does not apply to the broadcast of excerpts of proceedings.
Other privileges
Members may not be required to attend courts or tribunals as witnesses or be arrested or detained in civil matters on sitting days and for five days before and after sitting days. Such immunities also apply when a Member is a member of a committee that is meeting. People required to attend as witnesses before committees may not be required to appear as witnesses before a court or tribunal or be arrested or detained for a civil matter on days they are required to give evidence to the committee. Members and some parliamentary staff are also exempt from jury service. These immunities are justified on the ground that the first duty of Members, and others involved, is to Parliament and that this overrides other obligations. The immunity from civil arrest and detention does not exempt Members from the action of the law—Members still must fulfill their legal obligations at a time when the Parliament is not meeting, and no immunity applies at all in criminal matters.
The ability to deal with offences (contempts)
As well as dealing with people or organisations breaching particular rights or immunities, the House may also take action over matters which, while they do not breach any particular legal power or immunity, obstruct or impede the House in the performance of its functions or Members or officers in the discharge of their duties. This is known as the ability to punish for contempt and is similar to the courts' power to punish for contempt of court.
This power gives the House a flexibility to protect itself and its Members against new or unusual threats. Matters can be dealt with under this authority even if there is no precedent for them. A safeguard against misuse of this considerable power is given by section 4 of the Parliamentary Privileges Act which states that conduct does not constitute an offence unless it amounts, or is intended or likely to amount, to an improper interference with the free exercise by a House or a committee of its authority or functions, or with the free performance by a Member of his or her duties as a Member. Speakers have also referred to the importance of restraint in the use of the House's powers to deal with contempts. In addition, the Act prevents action being taken in cases where the only offence was that words or actions were defamatory or critical of the House or a committee or a Member. This removed a category under which many complaints had been raised over the years, for example, newspaper reports criticising the behaviour of Members.
One of the most important effects of the power to punish contempts is that the House may protect its committees and their witnesses. Committees usually have substantial powers to help them to obtain evidence and information, but they do not themselves have power to take action against any person or organisation who is obstructing or hindering them. If it is misled or obstructed, or if its witnesses are punished or intimidated, a committee may bring the matter to the attention of the House which ultimately may punish for contempt.
The raising of complaints
Complaints of breach of privilege or contempt may only be raised formally by Members—a person who believes that there has been an offence must ask a Member to raise it in the House. The normal course is for a Member to seek the call 'on a matter of privilege' and to immediately outline the complaint briefly. The Speaker then considers the matter privately. If satisfied that it has been raised at the first available opportunity and that there is some substance in it (the technical term being that a prima facie case exists) the Speaker may give precedence to a motion on the matter. Usually such a motion would be that the issue be referred to the Committee of Privileges and Members' Interests, although other motions could be proposed, or a Member might advise the House that he or she did not wish to pursue the matter further. Whether or not a matter is sent to the Committee of Privileges and Members' Interests for investigation is thus for the House itself to decide.
Committee of Privileges and Members' Interests
The House has had a Committee of Privileges since 1944. The title was changed to the Committee of Privileges and Members' Interests in February 2008 (when two committees were combined). Currently the committee consists of 11 Members and, like other committees, government Members form a majority, although it is traditional that matters of privilege are not considered on a party basis. The committee has the power to call for witnesses to attend and for documents to be produced, that is, it can compel the production of material and the attendance of witnesses. Witnesses, including Members, may be asked to make an oath or affirmation before giving evidence.
Traditionally, the committee has met in private. Major changes in procedure were made during an inquiry in 1986–87 relating to the unauthorised disclosure of material relating to a joint select committee. During that inquiry, for the first time, evidence was taken in public and witnesses were permitted to be assisted by legal counsel or advisers. In December 2000 the House agreed to a motion authorising the publication of all evidence or documents taken in camera or submitted on a confidential basis and which have been in the custody of the Committee of Privileges for at least 30 years. These records are now made available through the National Archives of Australia.
The committee itself cannot impose penalties. Its role is to investigate and advise. In its report to the House the committee usually makes a finding as to whether or not a breach of privilege or contempt has been committed, and it usually recommends to the House what action, if any, should be taken.
As well as investigating specific complaints of breach of privilege the committee is also able to consider any general privilege issues referred to it by the House, for example, it conducted an inquiry into whether Members' office records attracted privileged status. It also considers applications for a 'right of reply' from people who have been criticised in the House. Infosheet No. 17 'Citizens' right of reply' gives details of this procedure.
Consideration by the House
Normally when a report from the committee is presented, and especially if there is the possibility of further action, the practice is for the House to consider the report at a future time so that Members may study the report and the issues before making decisions on it. The House is not bound to follow the committee's recommendations, and any motion moved is able to be amended.
The mace is the symbol of the House's authority
Penalty options
It has long been recognised that the House has the power to imprison people, but there has been considerable uncertainty as to whether it had the power to impose fines because of doubt as to whether the House of Commons itself had this power in 1901. These doubts were removed by the Parliamentary Privileges Act. Under the Act the House may impose a penalty of imprisonment not exceeding six months on a person, or a fine not exceeding $5,000, or not exceeding $25,000 in the case of a corporation. Neither the House of Representatives nor the Senate has ever imposed a fine under this provision.
Under section 9 of the Act, if the House imposes a penalty of imprisonment, the resolution imposing the penalty and the warrant must set out particulars of the offence. The effect of this is that a court could be asked to determine whether the ground for the imprisonment was sufficient in law to amount to a contempt.
On only one occasion has the House imposed penalties of imprisonment. This was in 1955 when Mr R. E. Fitzpatrick and Mr F. C. Browne were found guilty of a serious breach of privilege by publishing articles intended to influence and intimidate a Member in his conduct in the House. They were each imprisoned for three months.

The location is convenient, as it's just off of Oxford St. The salon itself is ok: it's a hair salon upstairs and the treatment room is in the basement.
The waxing was fine and the therapist was chatty, which is always a nice thing to distract from the pain of waxing! A few patches were missed on my legs, but the hairs are fine so I wasn't too disappointed. A swift and reasonable wax, which was good value via Wahanda.

They can be useful though! For example, you can use them in chat conversations to find information or links you'll need later.AdvertisementIf you're like me, you have about a hundred movie recommendations, YouTube links, and even to-do reminders sitting in your chat history. When you're having a conversation about something you'll need to come back to, MakeUseOf suggests including a hashtag so you can easily search for it and similar suggestions later. Of course, you'll probably only want to do this with close friends or coworkers who won't judge you for using hashtags in chat conversations.3 Secret Ways To Use Hashtags You've Never Tried Before | MakeUseOf

good morning! i'm still reeling from last night's laughs and the idea that next week amy and i will get to ask martha stewart a few questions in person (click here to suggest questions!) so i thought i'd start off with a little thursday morning eye candy from one of my favorite artists, amy ruppel. amy just designed a series of three large scale wall decals for blik, ranging from $45-$75 each. i'm partial to the tree design over, but there are two owl images to choose from (images below) as well. click here to shop her new decal collection at blik.
ps: over at the d*s guest blog, the bbbcraft sisters are continuing their craft theme with papercraft today! they're sharing all sorts of beautiful handmade paper valentine ideas, so click here to check out all 15 of their lovely valentine images.
How adorable is the first wall decal!!! I need it!
Trees and birds, ways to illustrate them are endless and I can not get enough of them!
That is cool: meet Martha. Say hello from me ;) -
I really like the vintagey feel of the owls! They're such a refreshing contrast to many of the very modern wall decals.
Thanks for the post on wall decals! I've been looking all over for them as they would go perfectly in my newly renovated basement (once that is done)!
Thanks so much for highlighting these! After looking at various decals and finding nothing I wanted, I had plans to try to do my own for my daughter's nursery using fabric and cornstarch! Ha! Maybe someone could pull that off, but if I did it, it would have looked terrible. But now I don't have to go through the pain and anguish of that! Yippee!
Wonderful to finally see them.. I have been repeatedly checking the blik website for when would they arrive. Owls and architecture are awesome; great for our daughter's nursery!
Wow, I'm so excited to see these Amy Ruppel wall decals. I've bought several art pieces in recent years and this is a really cool new development for her. Thanks!
I love the designs on the wall. It feels like you are reading under the tree breathing fresh air around you. Feels so good to think about it.
Nice wall sticker, are they removeable?
I have favorite your blog, like it so much haha

TOPEKA, Kan. – Johnny Gray raced to his third victory of the season Sunday and moved back into the Funny Car points lead at the 25th annual NHRA Kansas Nationals.
Shawn Langdon (Top Fuel) and Jeg Coughlin (Pro Stock) also were winners in their respective categories at the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series event. All three winners were presented special-edition silver Wally trophies in honor of the event's 25th anniversary.
Gray took his first win at Heartland Park Topeka and the sixth of his career by outrunning Robert Hight in the final round. Gray drove his Pitch Energy Dodge Charger to a final round performance of 4.067 seconds at 314.90 mph, while Hight's Auto Club Ford Mustang lost traction and slowed early in the run in his first final round appearance in more than a year.
"Rob [Wendland, crew chief] gave me a great race car that ran real hard all day," said Gray, who beat Alexis DeJoria, Del Worsham and defending event winner Jack Beckman in earlier rounds. "Sometimes you can win races on an intimidation factor and Rob had her tuned up to where she was a little intimidating today. Robert had a great race car too, but they just missed it a little bit. They have a great team over there. Our car went right on down through there. My guys are giving me a car I can't screw up in right now."
For the first time in his career, Gray takes sole possession of the series lead. He holds a 10-point advantage over second place Cruz Pedregon. In his only other time at the top of the standings, Gray was tied for first with teammate Ron Capps after his win at Gainesville, Fla. in March.
"It's a long way before we start running for the championship, but if the car keeps running like it's running, then we've got as good a shot as anybody out there," Gray said. "The better the car is, the better it makes the driver look."
In Top Fuel, Langdon used the quickest time of the weekend to defeat his arch-rival Tony Schumacher in the final round and take his second win of the season. Langdon covered the distance in 3.750 at 324.20 in his Al-Anabi Racing dragster, while Schumacher's U.S. Army machine trailed with a 3.781 at 327.27. All three of Langdon's career victories have come with seven-time world champ Schumacher as his final round opponent.

Advertisement - story continues below
John F. Kennedy campaigned for president in 1960 by belittling Dwight Eisenhower's three recessions and declaring, "We can do bettah." He was right. In the 1960s, after the Kennedy tax cuts were implemented, prosperity returned, the economy grew by almost 4 percent annually, unemployment sank to record lows, and a gold-linked dollar held down inflation.
But today, many leading economists are throwing up their arms in frustration and assuring us that 2 percent growth is really the best we can do.
Barack Obama's former chief economist, Larry Summers, began this chant of "secular stagnation." It's a pessimistic message, and it's now being echoed by Federal Reserve vice chair Stanley Fischer. He agrees with Summers that slow growth in "labor supply, capital investment, and productivity" is the new normal that's "holding down growth." Summers also believes that negative real interest rates aren't negative enough. If Fisher and Fed chair Janet Yellen agree, central bank policy rates will never normalize in our lifetime.
Advertisement - story continues below
Unfortunately, Americans seem to be buying into this dreary assessment. A new Wall Street Journal poll finds that three out of four Americans think the next generation will be worse off than this generation. So long, American Dream.
But secular stagnation is all wrong. It's a cover up for mistaken economic policies that began in the Bush years and intensified during the Obama administration.
It would be hard to conceive of a worse set of policy prescriptions than the ones Larry Summers and his Keynesian collaborators have conjured up. We've had bailouts, massive spending-stimulus plans, tax increases on "the rich," Obamacare, rudderless monetary policy that has collapsed the dollar, the Dodd-Frank bill, anti-carbon policies, a vast expansion of the welfare state, and on and on.
Advertisement - story continues below
These measures have flat-lined the economy. It's as simple as that. There has been no divine intervention, with God ordaining: Thou shalt only grow at 2 percent!
The blame falls on the White House and the Fed, and the discredited Keynesian model that government spending, debt, and cheap money are the way to restore growth. Ideas have consequences, and bad ideas have bad consequences. We're still waiting for the government-spending multipliers and the Fed's escape-velocity rebound to kick in.
Amazingly, the architects of this colossal policy failure are the same people who promised they would rebuild the U.S. economy "for the long term," as Barack Obama put it in 2009. But they're now blaming the stagnant economy on structural problems beyond their control. Oh, we get it. Consumers and businesses are wrong because they didn't adhere to Keynesian economic models.
We have paid people not to work by raising eligibility and time limits for various benefit plans, substantially raised marginal tax penalties when people move from welfare to work, disincentivized employers from hiring more workers (Obamacare, minimum wage), raised taxes on investment, passed new regulations to strangle our energy industry, unionized even when workers don't want it, continued corporate-welfare cronyism, and refused to fix a corporate tax system that sends jobs abroad. And then we wonder why the economy won't shift into a higher gear.
Advertisement - story continues below
And sadly enough, this is all happening when the potential for growth, productivity, and wealth are at an all-time high.
First, thanks to the underperformance of this recovery, we are $2 trillion and nearly 10 million workers below potential output and employment. We could recapture this almost immediately with the right policies.
Second, the digital age and technological revolution have made hyper-growth more, not less, achievable. Just consider how Uber has led to amazing price reductions and efficiency improvements in the taxi-cab industry. Or think of how smart phones, robotics, disease-killing advances in biotech, and new oil and gas drilling technologies are expanding our output and wealth. Because of this private-sector productivity revolution, we can produce far more in a day than our ancestors could in a month. And it's only just starting.
We learned in the 1960s and 1980s how fast the economy can get back on its feet when policy mistakes are reversed. That's the real case for optimism. Imagine for a moment that we abolished the corporate income-tax rate, slashing it from 35 percent to zero. The positive results would be near instant. In a matter of weeks, a tidal wave of capital and businesses would flow across our borders and deep into the United States.
The secular-stagnation argument is just an excuse for liberal policy failures. Keynesianism should now be recognized as snake oil. And Republicans should recognize they now have a big opening to convince America that "We can do bettah."

On February 4, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a proposed rule to reform Medicare regulations that CMS views as unnecessary, obsolete, and/or excessively burdensome on hospitals and health care providers. CMS estimates that changes to conditions of participation (CoPs) for hospitals, long-term care facilities, transplant centers, rural health clinics, and federally qualified health centers, as well as the conditions of coverage (CfCs) of ambulatory surgical centers (ASC) will save $676 million annually and $3.4 billion over five years. This proposed rule is CMS' second effort to reduce burdensome regulations, the first being significant changes to providers' CoPs in Final Rules at 77 FR 29061 and 77 FR 29033, each published on May 16, 2012.
Governing Body
Current Rule: In "Reform of Hospital and Critical Access Hospital Conditions of Participation" (77 FR 29034), published May 16, 2012, CMS finalized changes to the requirements of the Governing Body CoP, § 482.12, and adopted a policy to allow one governing body to oversee multiple hospitals in a multi-hospital system. Additionally, this revised rule requires that a medical staff member from at least one hospital in the system be included on the governing body.
Proposed Rule: Hospitals' governing bodies would no longer be required to include a member of the medical staff. Instead, governing bodies would be required to consult with medical staff on an ongoing basis. This is designed to alleviate problematic issues hospitals experience in appointing staff members to governing bodies, especially those located where state law requires members of a public hospital's governing body to either be publicly elected or appointed by the state's governor or by some other state or local official.
Physician Orders, Supervision, and Swing-Bed Surveys
Current Rule: Changes have also been proposed to current sections §482.28, requiring a therapeutic diet to be prescribed only by the practitioner responsible for the patient; §482.53(b)(1), requiring the in-house preparation of radiopharmaceuticals to be performed by or under the direct supervision of a pharmacist or doctor of medicine or osteopathy; §482.54, on who may order hospital rehabilitation and respiratory care services; and §482.66 requiring hospitals to undergo a separate survey by a State Survey Agency (SA) to determine compliance with swing-bed requirements in addition to the Accredited Organization (AO) survey for the other CoPs.
Proposed Rule: Additionally, the proposed rule would allow outpatient services to be ordered by any practitioner who is (1) responsible for the care of patients, (2) licensed in the state where care is provided, (3) acting within the scope of practice under state law, and (4) authorized in accordance with the policies of the medical staff to order outpatient services. This would facilitate the ordering of rehabilitation and respiratory services by all practitioners. The preparation of radiopharmaceuticals would no longer be under the direct supervision of a registered pharmacist, or doctor of medicine or osteopathy. This was a burdensome requirement during off-hours when only minimal use of radiopharmaceuticals occurred. Dieticians would no longer be required to be supervised by physicians when ordering diets for patients. Finally, swing-bed services would be an optional service provided by hospitals. Under this change, hospitals that provide swing-bed service would have to be surveyed only once, rather than twice.
Current Rule: In 73 FR 47075, published August 13, 2008, CMS required all buildings containing long-term care facilities to have automatic sprinkler systems installed throughout the building. The deadline for meeting this requirement is August 13, 2013. The final rule was based on a CMS analysis of fire safety in nursing homes. Based on recent public comments, however, CMS believes some facilities will not be able to meet the deadline due to the magnitude of the enterprise they are undertaking (such as large scale construction of a replacement facility) combined with recent financial and construction constraints.
Proposed Rule: CMS would allow long-term care facilities that (1) are in the process of replacing the current system, (2) have made financial commitments to completing the renovations, (3) have submitted construction plans to state and local authorities, and (4) agree to interim steps to improve fire safety, to apply for a two-year extension to the August 13, 2013 deadline.
Current Rule: In "Hospital Conditions of Participation: Requirements for Approval and Re-Approval of Transplant Centers to Perform Transplants Final Rule" (72 FR 15198), published May 30, 2007, CMS required that transplant centers undergo an automatic onsite review of all CoPs under a three-year re-approval cycle. As well, centers, among other things, must report to CMS any significant changes related to the center's transplant program or changes that could affect a center's compliance with the CoPs. For example, whenever there is a decrease in the center's number of transplants or survival rates that could result in the center being out of compliance with the clinical experience (number of required transplants) or outcome (survival) requirements, CMS requires a three-year average of ten transplants per year.
Proposed Rule: Organ transplant centers would no longer have to be resurveyed every three years. CMS believes that it obtains enough information regarding the services provided at the facilities from other reporting mechanisms. If the information in those mechanisms indicates that a survey is necessary, CMS would conduct a survey of the facility. Also, for the same reasons, transplant facilities would no longer have to report to CMS when they are out of compliance with the three-year average of ten transplants per year.
Current Rule: CMS identified several priority areas in the CoPs for critical access hospitals (CAHs) (42 CFR part 485), the CfCs for both rural health clinics (RHCs) and federally qualified health care centers (FQHCs) (42 CFR part 491), and payment provisions for RHCs (42 CFR part 405) for updates and revisions. These regulations currently require a physician to be present for sufficient periods of time, at least once in every two-week period, except in extraordinary circumstances. Some providers in extremely remote areas or areas with geographic barriers have difficulty complying with the precise biweekly schedule requirement.
Proposed Rule: CMS is proposing to remove the requirement that a physician be present at least once every two weeks at CAHs, RHCs, or FQHCs. There are substantial barriers to very remote facilities meeting this requirement. In addition, advances in telemedicine technologies have allowed physicians to still provide these services without having to be physically present. Secondly, CMS is proposing that CAHs would no longer be required to have a non-CAH staff member advise them on the development of patient care and procedures.
Current Rule: As set out in the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), laboratories are checked by conducting tests on samples sent to them. This proficiency testing (PT) is to be conducted without referring the sample to another laboratory for additional testing. Some labs, however, in the normal course of business, will send samples to other labs to confirm results or to retest if their test reveals an abnormality or result outside a specific range. If a PT sample is referred to another laboratory for this testing, the penalties are severe. A laboratory's certificate may be suspended and the owner prohibited from owning another laboratory for two years.
Proposed Rule: Proposed changes would prevent confusion on the part of laboratories, reduce the risk of noncompliance, and establish policies under which certain PT referrals by laboratories would not generally be subject to revocation of a CLIA certificate, or a two-year probation on laboratory ownership or operation. CMS proposes to add a clarifying statement explicitly noting that the requirement to treat PT samples in the same manner as patient specimens does not mean that it is acceptable to refer PT samples to another laboratory for testing, even if that is the protocol for patient specimens. PT samples must never be sent to another laboratory under any circumstances. However, CMS also proposes to carve out a narrow exception to what constitutes an "internal" referral, and to provide for a less severe penalty for a single instance of PT referral.
CMS believes these regulatory modifications will streamline Medicare participation standards, and by eliminating outdated or overly burdensome requirements, providers can focus on treating patients—all while saving a large sum of money.
Comments on CMS' proposed rule to reform Medicare regulations, published in the Federal Registrar on February 7, 2012, must be received by CMS no later than 5 P.M. on April 8, 2012, and may be submitted either electronically, by regular mail, by express of overnight mail, or by hand or courier.

simple, clean.. |
right after I got done putting it togeather
I THINK (sometimes) that it just might be a couple of SOHC Frods - er Dorfs? Drofs? Whatever - (that company with the blew oval logo)
They look a lot like the ones used in the early-mid 60's with intake and exhaust "reversed" with the "bag'o'snakes" exhaust in the middle and individual side-draft carbs on the outboard sides of the heads. Distributors drive off the front of the cam. Similar concept to what was used in F1, Indy and in the GT-40 Lemans racer |

Yep..DOHC Ford FED. About 1971..

Here's a good one!
Thirty cylinders, five banks, five carburetors, five distributors, 1255 cubic inches. This is what happens when Detroit goes to war. Chrysler built the A57 as a way to satisfy a World War II tank-engine contract in a hurry, using as many off-the-shelf components as possible. It consisted of five 251-cube passenger-car inline-sixes arranged radially around a central output shaft. The resulting 425-hp pile of hairy freedom powered M3A4 Lee and M4A4 Sherman tanks. How the heck do you tune something like this? How would you like to be the first GI to open e engine hatch in the field and find this! BB |
That is friggin wild BB, I love that stuff. I don't know how well it worked but damn what an amazing piece of ingenuity! I love seeing the heads sitting there, frigging heads just like found on Rosy the Riveters car she drove to the plant. I really dig that stuff, very interesting.

Well, its not very exotic, but a bit of nostalgia for me. My father and I circa 1970 with my first engine build, '65 Olds 425 in my first T-bucket (car ended up as shown in my avitar)

Here's an unusual engine that I saw run at our local dyno the other day....
This is a Jimmy 302 from an old GMC truck. It has a Rotrex supercharger and a custom EFI intake. (the air cleaners are not functional - I guess they're there just to confuse people...inside them is a 180 degree elbow that connects the throttle bodies to the duct from the blower, which wraps around the front of the valve cover). This winter I'll be installing this beast in a '37 Chevy coupe street rod....it's going to be a tight squeeze. It has a neat sound....reminds me of an old v6 2-stroke Detroit. Unfortunately, I couldn't stick around to see them get the fuel and timing worked out. They did eventually get some acceptable numbers out of it. It was something like 360 HP and 430 Ft/lbs, and they never pushed it past 5000 rpm. Joe G. |
Thanks Joe G.....thats one helluva a different build, even liked the music. Heres a couple of pics of my different kind of build for my REPLICA '32 Victoria. "BUILT" 507" Cadillac, 8.7 compression for street gas, dyno'd 466 hp @ 5000 and 535 lbs.ft. @ 4300. Should be sweet in a 2800 lb. hot rod.

Dear Editor,
The article about ephedra ("Ephedra Ban Could Cut Into Club Profits," January 2004) hit me the wrong way from the title of the article to the last paragraph. I felt that your magazine, club owners and others are angry about the ban and the impact on profits. Is this all we think about: profit and how much money we can put in our pockets? Whatever happened to caring for the customer? The tone of the article should not have been about profits but about a concern for our members. I think a more appropriate title should have been "Ephedra: Off the Shelves Finally!" or "Ephedra: Banned to Save Lives!"
It is also irresponsible for clubs to continue to sell ephedra even if it is not banned yet. Take the loss and put your members first. Why do clubs have to go out and find the next "Ephedra?" When will this stop? Recently, we've had PhenFen and now Ephedra. Why can't clubs preach dedication and hard work to members? Because you can't put those in a pill and sell them. It is time for us to step up, put members in front of profit, and take a stand. Get this garbage off the shelves and concentrate on what is safe, proven and effective: exercise and a balanced diet.
Thank you,

Dear Jay,
While we agree that the best way to a truly healthy and fit life is through proper diet and exercise, it is also true that many health clubs sell supplements that purport to help members attain these results. The effectiveness of these supplements (or legitimacy of their use) was not the purpose of the article we ran. Instead, the article's purpose was to note the effect that this ban will have on health clubs and the opinions of health club owners about the ban.
Of the four club personnel that we spoke to, two expressed frustration with the ban while the other two expressed support for the ban. We felt it was important to include comments from both sides since from the comments we received, we saw that the industry was divided about the safety and effectiveness of ephedra. Either way, clubs that sold ephedra-containing supplements will feel the ban financially until those clubs find something that replaces ephedra — whether they should or shouldn't replace ephedra is, in our opinion, a topic better dealt with in an editorial rather than in a news article.
Dear Editor,
I read your First Word column every issue. I am a fitness professional (personal trainer, group fitness instructor and gym manager) in Largo, FL.
I was intrigued by your commentary in the February 2004 issue. I understand that your magazine suggests all the typical corporate ideas of 'making the sale.' And I can understand your concern with not being asked what you were looking for in a gym by the sales people you encountered. But as a long-time employee of smaller, family-owned fitness centers, I pride myself on the "no pressure," "no sales pitch" approach to gym memberships.
I have never tried to "close" a sale. I always try to build a rapport with a potential member, get them talking a little bit about what it is they're looking for, give them a tour, give them prices, newsletters, group fitness schedules, etc., and ask them if they would like to join.
If they are undecided, I simply let them know that I hope to see them again soon. Nine times out of 10, I do. And, later down the road, once I have gotten to know them better, I often hear that the reason they came back to our gym was because there was no pressure. I personally don't feel special when I'm sales-pitched. I get aggravated. I feel like just a number. If the gyms in your area are shifting away from the high-pressure tactics of selling gym memberships, then I commend them, and I hope it is a trend that spreads to the rest of the United States.
Enjoy your workouts,
Gemma R. Hughes

Dear Gemma,
I agree that both the sales pitch and high-pressure sales approach are often distasteful to prospects. My frustration came more from the lack of attention to me as an individual rather than not being "pitched."
And while I agree that the no-pressure way of selling is more appealing, not given the opportunity to join did neither the gyms nor me any good.
In reading your letter, you went a step further than any of the people I met with when you asked them if they wanted to join, which is a great "no pressure" attempt to close the sale.
I commend you on using your own style while still trying to facilitate the sale and the potential member's road to success.
Thanks for the feedback!

NCAA MEN'S BASKETBALL November 10, 2004
GW 106 Randolph-Macon 45 (exhibition)
Postgame quotes
GW Head Coach Karl Hobbs
What do you take away from a game like this? "I like the fact that we got out and ran a little bit. And we didn't practice tonight; we played somebody who was different from what we've been used to the last few weeks [in practice]. But to be honest, I'm not sure what we can take from it, because what we will face Monday will be different in every phase-- speed, style of play, the whole 9 yards."
What does the team need to work on? "I haven't looked at the tape yet, but I will watch the 2nd half, when Randolph-Macon started to score some points. They scored some points off second shots, which is not encouraging. Those would be the things that stand out."
Are you happy with so few turnovers? "That's still a concern for me because we played a team that basically played zone all night. They didn't pressure us or make us have to make plays, so to speak. Yes, I'm happy about it, but it's still a concern."
Do you foresee a lot of time from your bench? "The players will dictate how deep into the bench we go. I'd like to play 9 to 10 people if I can, particularly at the pace we like to play at."
Could any team in an exhibition game adequately prepare you for Wake Forest? "No, and it's not a knock against Randolph-Macon. Next year, I'd like to reevaluate how to handle exhibition games. I've asked my assistant coaches to consider if we might be better off scrimmaging against an ACC team. There are a lot of other issues involved, Of course, you also want to show yourself before your students in the first game. We wanted to give the students the opportunity to see us play."
How are you approaching the game with Wake Forest? "We're going to have to break their rhythm a little bit. Offensively, they're a terrific team. So we've got to be prepared to change our defenses and other things we wouldn't normally do. They also have a great inside game that nobody's talking about, and that's my greatest fear. We have to find a way to neutralize that."
GW junior Mike Hall
What do you take from a game like this? "We took it as a dress rehearsal to work on execution and things we can't simulate in practice because when it's us, we all know the plays. We're just trying to fine-tune things for Monday."
Can an exhibition game against any opponent really prepare you for Wake Forest? "Not necessarily for Wake Forest, given the talen their guards have. But last year, we learned a lot because we played an extremely physical team that prepared us for what college basketball is about. But Wake Forest is a special team. I really don't think anyone could simulate that."
"This is a great opportunity. We really don't have much to lose. They're coming in with the title, and [winning] would start our season off in an amazing way. Or, just starting off showing the country our level of play."
You've started the season at UConn, at Charlotte, and now at Wake Forest. How does it help you get ready for a long season? "It definitely helps, it carries over through the season just given the level the opponent plays at. But also the atmosphere. At UConn, I don't think I've ever played before that many fans. If you can handle that, you can handle anything."

The report predicts that basic spatial information management capabilities - such as those already provided by Oracle - will be ubiquitous in database, application server, and data access technology within two to three years, and praised Oracle's innovative move to build Spatial Information Management (SIM) capabilities directly into the relational database. IDC based its findings on analysis of vendor financial statements, census interviews, public information and demand-side research. According to IDC's recent report titled, "Spatial Information Management: Competitive Analysis, 2002," Oracle holds 80-90 percent market share for SIM-oriented database installations.

The Fall River Public Library and the Lafayette-Durfee House Inc. invite children and their parents to celebrate Patriots' Day by taking a step back in time with an educational holiday program.
Patriots' Day at the Lafayette-Durfee House is set for Saturday, April 19, at 11 a.m. The event will take place at the historic home located at 94 Cherry Street in Fall River.
This fully restored colonial home was built some time before the birth of Thomas Durfee's son, Joseph, in 1750. The famed Marquis de Lafayette (who served with George Washington in the Revolutionary War) stayed there several times. The house was originally located just south of the present Superior Court on North Main Street.
The morning will feature a reading of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's stirring poem, "The Landlord's Tale," better known as "Paul Revere's Ride." After the story children will be invited to make miniature minuteman dolls using wooden clothes pins and other materials. A tour of the Lafayette-Durfee House will also be provided by a guide in historic dress, showcasing all the historically accurate details of the home.
Weather permitting, other exhibits will be on display in the home's backyard featuring authentic Revolutionary War weaponry, surgical instruments, colonial tools, clothing and children's outdoor games.
More information is available by contacting David Mello at (508) 324-2700, ext. 4.

Is Dis.....DA?
Is Dis...... DA??
As any parent knows, a toddlers many developmental milestones are a source for extreme joy, endless frustration, and at times, downright terror. Maxfield is certainly no exception to this rule (although, at times it seems he has more than his fair share in the terror department). Everyday, he is learning new things, new phrases, new ways to move his body, new PLAYTHINGS on his body. And having a grand ol' time exploring it all. However, for the past six months or so, he has been plagued by the same eternal question:
"Is dis... da?"
Now I ask myself, how is it that a 19 month old child can learn in a few short minutes, "What does an owl say?"
"Hoo, hoo", he responds with amazing clarity. I, however, after six months, am still perplexed by the ever ambiguous, "Is dis...da?"
I wrack my brain with the details of this little phrase, searching for clues into the psyche of my child. When does he say it? What is he doing when he says it? What does it sound like he could be saying? The truth is, he could be doing anything when he says it. There is no recognizable correlation between events/activities and said phrase. This morning, he picked up my checkbook while I was doing the bills, handed it to me, and said, "Is dis da?" Then, only a few short minutes later, while captivated by Elmo, he pronounced, "Is dis..... DAAAA!!!"
Now, there is the occasional variation, "Is dis... dis?", "Is dis... da, da, da,da?", but nothing that gives any more insight into this mystery question. Obviously, he is trying to communicate, but what is he saying? I have laid in bed many a night pondering possible translations:
"Is this dad?", "Is fish dead?","Juice the dog?"
Maybe we will never know, but in the meantime, I'm sticking with my favorite, "Is this love?
(Whitesnake music playing softly).

(Lois waves crazy like to Lauren!)
"Is Dis.....DA?" I think he is asking "What is that?" My son said the same. I think he did it because every time he picked something up, I would ask, "What is that?" It seemed to me he was trying to say the same back to me.
My best friend's son used to say "Oh! Bee-da-da!" It took forever but we found out that was his was of being excited to hear or see a motorcycle in the distance. Kids are weird. :)

Hi Lauren! I gotta go with "What is that/this? My kids had some thing they said like that when they were little I can't remember what it was now...wish I had written these things down. Anyway, finally figured it was What is that because that's what I always said to them. Stacie
oh no...another long alphabet code..I always scramble them worse than they already are....sigh.. - 7:47 PM

Hi Lauren...I have an 18 month old and all she ever says is Baby and Ohhhhhhh Woooooooowwwwww....I was waiting for my car to get fixed yesterday and a mother had her 2 year old son there who knew all his shapes, colors... so on. I felt like my daughter was a monkey next to him...LOL All I kept saying to myself was" Ohhhh woooooowwwww" Guess, I know where she gets it from....
- Susie said...
Liam is only 13 months but he is starting to add words now. However - the words all sound the same. Daisy sounds like doggie sounds like daddy. Nana sounds like the way he says "Lily" - Nin-nay. His favorite is still "ba" everything is "ba" he said it a thousand times in the car today and I'm wracking my brain.. ba=tree? ba=car? ba=water? I'll never know....
- AdventureDad said...
Yeah we got the same issues here. Our son is learning three lanugages at once so it's all kind of a mess right now since he's only 19 months old. But he keeps pointing to things and saying "Den!!" All the time. And the phrase "Oj, Oj, Oj!" keeps coming up many times a day. That kind of means "ooops" in Swedish. He must have learned that from us. Probably my frustrations over seeing wife drop things in the kitchen..
- judypatooote said...
Kids get so frustrated when we repeat back, what we think they are saying, but it's no where what they mean....and isn't it funny how we encourage them to talk when they are little, and then when they get older, we wish we could turn them off....lol....we use to call my daughter motor mouth...when she was little.... and I agree I think Max is saying What is this, or that.....I had a friend whose son use to ask for "Peel it", she finally figured out he was asking for an apple...because she would always say, do you want me to peel it? And my son use to ask for "generation", we finally figured out he was asking for Pepsi....you know "It's a pepsi generation" that was a big add on tv at the time.....Great Post.....
- kalki said...
He's clearly asking for the car keys. :)
- Circus Kelli said...
LOL -- Our 22 month old just started having "conversations" with us. Up until now, it's been random babbling (to us, I guess), but now you can tell he is REALLY saying something. The trouble is what? What on Earth is he saying? Whatever it is, though, he really means it...
- Tammy said...
What is this? maybe? I dunno.
Don't you just love discerning kidspeak? - 10:01 AM
Is this dead?.... He is referring to the lawn that Bill does not take care of. It's a shame.
- ieatcrayonz said...
The key is to rearrange the syllables into discernable words:
"Is dis da?" could be
Sidi sad?
Did a sis?
Aid sids?
Dis AIDS?
Obviously he's a revolutionary AIDS activist OR he wants to know what everything is: What the freak do you call this checkbook thingamajig here, and why aren't you using crayonz to color in it?
Or he could be saying, "Pay those bills later, I want to play!" - 11:03 AM
- Susie said...
Ooh, let me try. I think he's trying to be helpful, finding what you or Elmo were looking for, or wondering about: say, e.g., you murmered, "Hmmm, where's my checkbook?" It may be minutes later, but he still remembers and thinks, "Aha! Here it is!" and he asks, "Is this it?" (Is this dat thing you were looking for?) Yea, that's the ticket.
- Michelle said...
We had "ginka mownk" to ponder over. She always said it when she wanted something to drink, but we could never figure out why she used that phrase.
I had no Idea my wife was posting on Poop and Boogies... I mean it did say The most Beautiful women in the world and the best wife a guy could have? right? although i'm not sure why she would sign it Lauren....
She must of used an anonymous name.. thats it... cause she would never give out her real name... would she? - 12:49 PM
Great job on the Blog,Laur! You write very well...so proud of you!!!! xoxo
- Kari said...
Is dis dat? I agree. I think he's saying/trying to say "what dis dat?"
Do you ever have Bill looking for stuff for you and he says "Is this it?" That could be it too.
Good luck with the mystery...keep us posted if you or if Max figures it out! lol. - 9:05 PM
- Mama Duck said...
For the longest time The Duckling walked around saying "tits, tits, tits." Since I'm not a stripper and we usually don't watch porn in her presence I was pretty sure that wasn't the word she was trying to say.
Finally one day she was placing the beloved Cashew (her teddy bear) in a chair saying, "tits"...it hit me..."SIT!"
I hope you someday figure out the meaning of "Is dis...da?"
Cheers! - 10:53 PM

Woohoo! Another spouse willing to take up blogging for their so. How cool is that! Howdy Lauren. I keep stopping by cause your hubby has such cool family stories. My hub is one of 10 so I can just relate so well. Keeps me smiling. Nice of you to let him share. :)
You son sounds so cute. I miss having one that age. My youngest (of four) is 4 now. Sniffles. I wish I could have more but she was 10 weeks early, and they promised another early one. Sigh.
Enjoy!! :) - 6:24 PM
