- Writers: Brian Wood and Alex Cox
- Artist: Hayden Sherman
- Colorist: Chris O'Halloran
- Letterer: Thomas Napolitano
- Publisher: Dynamite Comics
- Release Date: February 8, 2017
(Spoiler Free)
John Carter and Dejah Thoris have moved away from Barsoom (Mars) living on a distant moon for centuries in seclusion. Barsoom has fallen on hard times and an evil emperor has taken over. Ruling with an iron fist he has almost eradicated the native race. With the Barsoom's society about to collapse and the natives fate at hand, the small resistance has one savior the once Warlord of Mars John Carter. Can they find him and Thoris in time to save their people and will they be willing to take down this new Emperor who is mad with power?
John Carter is one of those "open domain" characters that every comic creator wants to get a shot at since it is such an enduring legacy and has influenced many sci-fi/superhero stories throughout the years. There have been many variations and continuations of the John Cater stories throughout the years. Making an entertaining "new" John Carter is quite a hefty task since it has been done so many times. That being said Brian Wood and Alex Cox have made the first issue of this series very interesting and get right to the chase. If you pick up this book you likely know something about John Carter and his history, if not you will be a little lost, but the writing team makes sure that you can pick up all the vital information from other characters dialogue. I wouldn't say it is vital to know every nook and cranny of John Carter history (I definitely do not) but it would definitely help to know a little of the history for the story to have full impact. The writers do make it easy to jump into the series and even not knowing much the story is very intriguing and to be spoiler free finding out who this new rule is and how John Carter and Dejah Thoris are going to deal with it is a great driving point for the series.
Hayden Sherman has a very sketchy, rough style that fits well with John Carter The End #1. Sherman's art style definitely lends to these more dystopian type stories (see The Few), his art gives the story the desperation and just "beat up" feel it needs. His panel layouts are spectacular and he always does a fantastic job with his action beats and layouts. The only problem with his style is that the far away shots all details are lost, characters become more like stick figures. The backgrounds can be very muddled and detailed less making one setting not much different from the other. O'Halloran on colors does a great job of matching Sherman's style and making the art really fits into the "John Carter world" and giving the characters and settings a little bit more detail to tell them apart.
Not being a big John Carter person this story has really piqued my interest. It is very intriguing with this new emperor and how our main protagonist is going to deal with what he is doing. The destruction and overtaking of Baroom is interesting, but the real story is going to be how John Carter and Dejah Thoris deal with the emotional aspect of who this new emperor is. I really like Sherman's art besides the lack of detail, but his "scratchy" style makes the story feel that more desperate and the area "war-torn". This is a great creative team and they are delivering a John Carter story that will peak anybody's interest.

Posted by Alexandra Valiente on April 25, 2017
A new release of the sensitive internal records of Chiquita Brands International, the U.S. banana giant that funded right-wing paramilitary death squads in Colombia, dubbed the "Chiquita Papers," reveals new information about the exact role individual Chiquita executives played in bankrolling terror in the South American country.
The new records reveal, for the first time, the identities and roles of Chiquita executives like Robert F. Kistinger, head of Chiquita's Banana Group based in Cincinnati, Ohio, who both approved and oversaw years of payments to groups such as the now-defunct far-right paramilitary organization the United Self Defence Forces of Colombia, better known by its Spanish acronym AUC.
The investigation found that Kistinger viewed the payments as a "normal expenditure," and like the purchase of things such as fertilizers or agrichemicals, saw them as "an ongoing cost" of the company's business operations. The investigation also identified the exact members of Chiquita's board of directors, the corporate security team, regional and country operations manager, accountants and internal auditors, attorneys and third-party agents who carried out the payments over the years.
The AUC was responsible for years of violent terror, leading a coordinated campaign of assassinations and massacres aimed at unionists, political activists, public officials and others perceived as guerrilla supporters. By Chiquita's own account, between 1997 and 2004, the company issued at least 100 payments to the AUC totaling some US$1.6 million.
The collusion between the right-wing death squad and Chiquita is being increasingly uncovered as families of the victims of paramilitary violence seek justice through the latest lawsuit against the corporation.
One of the documents also reveals that Chiquita, through its Colombian affiliates, not only made payments to the AUC and other paramilitary groups, but also to the country's two largest rebel armies, the FARC and the ELN, between 1989 and 1997. The finding, the result of a Special Litigation Committee report investigating whether Chiquita violated the U.S. anti-terrorism statute, underlines the fact that the company financed Colombia's war from all sides for decades in order to protect its bottom line.
According to the report, Chiquita began payments to the FARC and ELN around 1989, but later slowly phased them out as right-wing paramilitary groups gained strength. The payments to guerrilla armies ended around 1997, but the company continued payments to death squad groups until 2004. . .

Little know foreclosure help
The Hope for Homeowners and Foreclosure Prevention Acts of 2008 were passed in 2008 to help distressed homeowners who have an FHA-insured mortgage. The goal was to assist 400,000 homeowners in retaining their homes and avoiding foreclosure. In response to many of your questions about foreclosure issues, I will attempt to give you a brief description here of services you may be able to avail yourself of if you are facing foreclosure on your home. I will also give you links to access more information on these programs. I am not a lawyer or a mortgage broker, so what I am giving you is the basics and the information you need to get more information and to approach your mortgage holder. Since foreclosure seems to be the area of most concern, I am going to focus on the areas specifically addressing that issue. For more information contact your lender directly.
A new mortgage program is being offered by FHA-approved lenders to refinance distressed loans at significant discounts for owner occupants at risk of losing their home to foreclosure.
Eligibility Requirements:
You must be in living in the home the mortgage is on, and unable to afford the current mortgage payment
You must certify, under penalty of law, that you have not intentionally defaulted in order to qualify
Your mortgage debt to income ratio must be greater than 31% as of March 1, 2008.
You must be able to verify your income with the IRS
You must be willing to take on the new loan as a 30-year, fixed rate loan.
All subordinate liens must be resolved. You do this through negotiations with the primary lien holder
The new loan amount will be the current affordability requirement you meet under FHA requirements based on your income and expenses, or 90% of the current value of our home, whichever is the lesser amount. This is the current fair market value, not the current balance on your mortgage.
Appraisers who determine the fair market value must be certified by the state where the property is located, or by a nationally recognized appraisal organization, and have a demonstrated education in FHA appraisal requirements.
You will be sharing any newly-created equity and future appreciation equally with your mortgage holder. Basically, you will split the profit if you sell the house for more than this new loan is for, but not for the original amount of the mortgage. There is a small penalty if you sell your home in the first five years.
For this program, the FHA loan limit has been increased from 95% to 110% of the area median home price with a cap (which currently is around $625,000)
This program requires a new disclosure that informs you of the maximum monthly payment possible for the life of the loan.
Allows you to retain home ownership, at an amount equal to the current market value of our home, and still enables you to keep the equity you will be building.
Additional benefits for veterans:
Lenders must wait from 3 – 9 months after a soldier returns from service before they can begin foreclosure proceedings.
Soldiers returning from active duty are given a one year period of no increase in mortgage payments due to interest increases or adjustable rates on existing mortgages.
The Boston Globe on January 16th ran an article about the funding for these programs, and what the banks have done with that funding. To read this article, paste the following link directly into your browser.

You may experience various problems when you use optical media in Windows Vista
|Article ID
|Last Review
|March 15, 2007
On This Page
Optical media problems
Optical media problems include media quality problems and unreported write problems.
Media quality problems
Problems that you may experience with media quality include the following problems:
|The media is of low quality.
We recommend that you use high quality optical media.
|Rewriteable media may have been used too many times.
You can write to rewritable optical discs only a certain number of times before you must fully erase the disc.
|The media is old.
Optical media may degrade over time. This degradation may occur faster if the media is exposed to direct sunlight or if the media is stored in a humid location.
Unreported write problems
Unreported write problems include the following problems:
|The write operation is only marginally successful. In this case, you experience a symptom that resembles the following symptom:
The media write operation is successful, and the verification operation is successful. This indicates that the drive that performed the write operation can successfully read the media. However, when you insert the media into another drive such as a read-only drive, the media has errors.
This problem occurs because DVD writers and CD writers have more tolerance for errors in the writing process than in the reading process. Additionally, the reader drive may have higher-quality lenses to help focus the laser.
Note You may experience this problem more frequently when you use the written media in a mobile computer. The optical drive in a mobile computer is constrained by space issues. Therefore, a mobile computer optical drive may have more difficulty reading data that is written at the edge of the tolerances.
|The write speed is too fast. This is a common problem. To better understand this problem, consider the following issues that may be exacerbated by a fast write speed:
|A buffer underrun occurs. This problem is less common because all newer optical writers include buffer underrun protection.
Typically, buffer underrun protection is turned on by default. However, if a buffer underrun occurs, a small missed spot occurs in the written track. This may cause some drives to experience difficulty reading the next sector.
Optical drive problems
Optical drive problems include optical focus failure, non-optimal ATAPI connections, and outdated firmware.
Optical focus failure
The focusing component of a drive is generally a plastic stabilizer. Over time, this component may fail. This failure may cause focusing problems to occur during read and write operations. Therefore, you may experience random read failures when you use the drive. This issue occurs even if you use the drive to read media that can be read in other drives.
Note The focusing component may wear out more quickly in a high-usage environment.
Non-optimal ATAPI connections
You may experience problems if the ATAPI optical drive does not use the optimal cable or jumper settings. Consider the following information:
|Most current ATAPI devices can use a DMA mode that requires an 80-pin cable to maximize signal integrity. We recommend that you use 80-pin cables for all ATAPI devices.
|If the cable is not seated correctly, some of the data that is transferred may be lost. We recommend that you reseat all the cables to the devices. Additionally, you may want to verify that no pins are bent on the device or on the controller to which the cable is connected.
|Optical drives should be explicitly jumpered as Master or Device 0 when they are the only devices that are connected to the cable.
When two drives are connected to the cable, you should configure one drive as the Master or Device 0 drive and one drive as the Subordinate or Device 1 drive. We recommend that you do not use the Cable Select jumper setting.
Outdated firmware
Optical drives contain firmware. We recommend that you determine whether an update for the firmware exists for the drive. For more information about how to do this, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
File problems
Problems may occur if the file that you wrote to the optical media is damaged. To test an .iso file, you can use a virtualization program such as Microsoft Virtual PC 2004 to mount the file in a virtual drive.
|Use a known brand of optical media that is certified for use by the drive manufacturer.
|Use a write-only media, such as DVD -R or DVD +R media.
|Store media in a cool, dark location.
|Write to the optical media by using the lowest write speed that is available.
|Verify that the buffer underrun feature is enabled.
|Examine the log files from the CD or DVD burning program to determine whether any error messages are generated.
|Verify that the jumpers on all drives are set correctly.
|For ATAPI drives, verify that you have an 80-pin Ultra DMA 100/133 cable.
|Verify that the drive has the latest firmware installed.
|Reseat all the drive cables.

Trevor has been doing my personal and business tax returns for 5+ years. He never fails to identify deductions that I would have otherwise missed, has always been fairly priced and is diligent in learning about my complex situations before making recommendations. I have recommended Trevor to multiple people and business owners and will continue to do so.

Second year I have had Fusion and Trevor do my taxes which are complex and multi state. Trevor is responsive, professional and provides for peace of mind on this annual requirement! I will continue with Trevor and Fusion next year!

Reliable and trustworthy team! As an entrepreneur running a small business, every penny counts. From the moment I met Tyler, he has provided priceless guidance, helped us maximize our returns (in ways our previous CPA didn't), and he's become not only a trusted adviser, but a friend as well. I've heard horror stories of people with miserable CPAs, and I'm thankful that Fusion is the exact opposite. They are easy to work with, very punctual, and always extremely helpful.

Oxford MBA
Soondra Appavoo
After a biochemistry degree at Oxford I initially worked for Arthur Andersen as a corporate finance executive for four years before moving to SG Hambros, and was then head-hunted by UBS Warburg. I decided to undertake an MBA in order to move into fund management from a corporate finance background. Following completion of my MBA in 2003 I secured a job within the Punter Southall Group originally running a hedge fund of funds business, PSolve Alternative Investments for three years. I then set up PSource Capital, another specialist alternative investment business, with backing from the Punter Southall Group.
I initially landed the role within the Punter Southall Group through contacts in my existing network and the MBA has been extremely valuable in several ways in helping me to advance in my roles since. Firstly, it has given me credibility in alternative investments which is important having come from a predominantly corporate finance background. Secondly, the MBA has helped to demystify the process of being an entrepreneur which has been enormously beneficial in setting up and running PSource Capital. Thirdly, the Oxford connection has proved useful in recruiting top quality staff to a small organisation as it is a universally recognised badge of quality – incidentally one of Saïd Business School's finance faculty is on the board of one of our listed funds as a non-executive director.
As Managing Director I am ultimately responsible to my equity partners for everything that PSource does. We are a specialist alternative investment business somewhere between corporate finance and alternative investments, and key to our success has been occupying a specific market niche with limited competition which should put us in a good position to weather the current bear market; classic MBA thinking, I suppose. The job is different and challenging. It is great fun to get something started up that is genuinely new and innovative, and also with the potential to make money.
Advancing your career in finance is tough. If you are thinking of doing the same, bear in mind that the sector is very competitive and employers want to see clear evidence that you have a strong focus in this area. You'll be up against another 50 people going for the same role who are completely committed, doing finance in their MBA's wherever they can so try and specialise your course content through electives to take in as much finance as you can. In a bear market you cannot afford to be a generalist, it's just not credible.

After and before finish of severely weather damaged metal flake gelcoat.
Wet sanded then buffed with rubbing compound... not waxed, yet.
Gelcoat is the first
material applied to a prepared mold, it contains the color, and other products that give
it UV protection, gloss, resistance to discoloration, and ease of maintenance and
Now that I said that, lets start with basics.
Its always best to keep it clean, a good soap and water wash does a boat good. The
preference here is a soft bristle brush and a sponge or soft rags for the smooth areas of
the boat. A biodegradable, marine safe, detergent, recommended here, it doesnt have
to be strong soap, because its not the soap that cleans anyway, its you. If
its kept clean and waxed, washing is not that bad. Some non-skid cleaner and a stiff
brush works wonders on the textured surfaces. Do not use abrasive products like soft
scrub, kitchen cleansers etc. for general cleaning because may damage the gloss finish and
shorten the life of your boats finish.
Once the boat is clean, its time for that coat of wax.
Several times a year is a good idea, an easy to apply and remove cleaner wax will due, try
a brand that lasts, because it will give the best protection. But, what if your
boats not new, and maybe its not got that new boat look anymore? we will have
to start with more than just wax. Gelcoat is an easy to restore finish, providing the
finish is not already dried out and / or porous.
Before we go any further, lets talk about ability and
tools. If you have never done any type of work like this before, odds are that you lack
the tools too! First of all, safety is always first, use safety
equipment (eye, face, and
respiratory protection and since your probably going to be near water a g.f.c.i.), always
use the proper tool for the job, the wrong tool can make a job harder or can damage more
than it will fix. If you have never operated any of the tools needed, and are willing to
rent or purchase them for your task at hand, have someone demonstrate the proper use and
the safety precautions before you start.
Machine compounding and polishing is the best way to make an
old boat look new, (short of painting). A heavy duty high-speed buffer works best for me,
coupled to a 3m super buff compound or polishing pad. Ive seen it done with an
electric drill and a pad, but Ive never seen a professional finish gotten that way.
A heavy duty, high speed buffer will probably pay for itself the first time you use it.
For heavy oxidation (the dull, dry look), a product like 3m super-duty compound works
best, from a squeeze bottle, apply to the surface enough material to wet approximately. A
3x2 foot area with the buffer pad without creating lots of spatter when the machine is
running. Work the pad up and down, back and forth slowly, with the pad at about a 15
degree angle off the surface until the compound is dry and a gloss is present. Work in
small areas, do not allow the compound to dry on the surface, and do not work in direct
sunlight. Wipe the compound residue off before it sets. Take extra care when working near
corners and sharp edges. The abrasive action of the compound and machine can cause damage
to the finish, also watch out for decals, emblems, rags and the buffers cord, especially
on deck.
If your boat is not in that bad of condition, only light
oxidation and light discoloration then you may not need a compound as strong as the
super-duty, then try something like 3m finesse paste and a clean compound pad. Apply the
paste with a chip brush, in a 2x3 foot area working the compound like above. This product
also works well to remove the swirl marks left from the super-duty, and increase the
gloss. Clean off any residual compound before it dries.
Once the compounding is finished, its time to protect
that shine with some wax. Put the polishing pad on and apply a coat of liquid cleaner wax
by machine, this removes any missed swirl marks, polishes, and adds a layer of wax. There
is no substitute for a good hand waxing, so follow up with a coat of wax applied and
removed by hand. Use a wax that is easy to put on and remove, and has UV protection. Wax
it often and keep it clean to protect all the hard work youve put in to it. The 3m
products are available at most body shop supply stores or your marine retailer. The 3m
brand does not support me but, I have used these products in the past and have had good,
predictable results with them when used as directed, but you should use whatever product
you find to your satisfaction.
So, the boat is compounded, polished, and waxed, looks great
? All except for that spot......
Now that the boat has been detailed 90 times over, every
little thing has caught your eye. You find that chip thats been bothering you, or
the scratch your brother put in the boat, or that dull area where the bumper sits.
Lets take the easy stuff first, how about that dull area?
Gelcoat has remarkable repair properties, fine scratches,
and some larger (if not to deep) can be sanded and polished out. Heres how, first
lets clean it, wash to remove any loose dirt, with the water handy lets sand in a
circular motion with 600 grit wet or dry sand paper, then with 1000 grit over the entire
dull area. In areas with heavy wear or see-thru spots ( dark areas in white finish)
sanding will probably make it worse and re-gel-coating may be in order. Clean up any
sanding residue before it dries (rinse off of bottom paint). Compound area with 3m
super-duty, then polish with finesse, and apply wax.
Those chips and scratches ( minor ones ) can be easily
patched by obtaining a gelcoat repair kit from your boats manufacture. If the boat is
relatively new the dealer should have access to these kits. This kit usually contains a
gelcoat paste and hardener, sometimes a mixing stick and instructions. Its not as
hard as it sounds, just a few simple steps and if you are patient and have a good color
match it will look better than the chips. Do not use this repair method if the damage
extends deeper than the gelcoat ( any fiberglass damage must be repaired with fiberglass
to maintain the strength of the area). So, if its just a chip or scratch in the
gelcoat lets start by cleaning it out with acetone with a clean white rag (not the
rag used for waxing). Next, score or sand the damaged area, be careful not to sand the
area around the repair then re-clean with acetone. Mask around the chip so, that when
applying the paste it only goes in the damaged area, we dont want to make any more
work than needed. Mix the gel paste in the container, then put enough to fill the repair
on a mixing board (non-porous like Plexiglas ) and add the hardener, use 2% hardener to
gelcoat ratio or follow the directions on the kit. Once completely mixed, apply the
gel-paste to the damage and fair level with the masking. Some kits come with a plastic
sheet to place over the gelcoat paste while drying, be careful not to trap air between the
plastic and gel. If this sheet is supplied, try and use it, the sheet also keeps air away
from the gel because it will not fully dry exposed to air unless additives are supplied.
Be patient, give it time to fully cure, the harder the gelcoat becomes the better it is to
polish. Heres the tricky part, the tape is still on, if at all possible its
best to pull the tape when the gel is still wet, thats not always possible so here
is the alternative; carefully remove the tape and the stuff thats left behind can be
scraped level with a razor blade. Once the tape is removed use a sanding block and a sheet
of 400 grit wet or dry sandpaper and lots of water ( note you may want to protect the
adjacent areas with tape to prevent damage from the sandpaper ) sand in a circular motion
until almost level, at that point switch to 600 grit and finish leveling it. Remember to
always sand to remove scratches from the coarser paper, then switch to a finer grit. Sand
with 1000 grit, wipe clean and polish as needed.
A little about the author:
One of the top fiberglass sculptures, I've ever met, Bob
Schnieder can turn cloth and resin into masterpieces. He specializes in accident repair to
boats in the 30 to 50 foot bracket, but has been known to play with experimental
fiberglass projects as well. You can't teach what this artist knows, but we hope his tips
will make your day go faster...

Sydney FC will face Melbourne City without their skipper and top scorer Alex Brosque, who has been ruled out with a recurring hamstring injury.
Brosque's inclusion in Saturday night's blockbuster at AAMI Park has been touch and go since he limped off the field last weekend.
The 32-year-old striker netted his fourth and fifth goals this season in the Sky Blues' 4-1 home rout of Central Coast but lasted only 26 minutes before he felt his hamstring tighten up again.
It was his first game back after sitting out the previous two games with the same issue.
Brosque's absence, along with the suspended Matt Simon, forces coach Graham Arnold to reshuffle his forward line.
Shane Smeltz (groin) has been named in the squad to make his return, while Slovak winger Filip Holosko is again available.
It leaves the door open for 18-year-old George Blackwood to secure a second start of the season, while Andrew Hoole could retain his starting place on the left wing.
Sydney are in fourth place on the ladder, equal on 20 points with third-placed City.

The Good
While I love working in The District, I do not love my commute. I leave my house at 6:30 in the morning and 12 hours later I am back home. Never mind the commuter bus and two trains I take to get there. After a year of doing this, I started looking for opportunities on my side of the river. Well, that day has finally came and I will be working in Tyson's Corner, which isn't too bad, just a 30 minute ride on the Tyson's Express and I am at work. Did I mention how close I am to the mall? My lunch time shall rock!!!!
The Bad
Working in Tyson's the possibility of me actually driving to work is nil. I would have to get on at 66 and I heard that whole strip of highway will suck the soul out of you in no time flat. Furthermore, we all know how I feel about driving up here.
The Ugly
The Silver Line will be open by the time my son graduates from high school….

Users need to research the hazards of cellphone radiation, and the simple accessories that can reduce health risk from excessive wifi radiation exposure
Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) October 18, 2016
Wi-Fi technology is a form of electromagnetic radiation that sends and receives information using radio waves, permeating everything around it.
RF Safe, world leader in wireless radiation education and safety, has developed a new line of revolutionary shielding to protect against this unseen force now found in almost every modern business and home.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IRIC), part of the United Nations' World Health Organization (WHO) classifies radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF/EMF) as Class 2B Carcinogens. The main sources of RF/EMF are radios, televisions, microwave ovens, cell phones, and Wi-Fi devices.
Earlier this year, a rodent study found heavy exposures to cell phone radiation increased rats' risks for some brain and heart tumors. More rodent research has tied high levels of Wi-Fi and cell exposure to hormonal shifts and oxidative stress—the kind of shifts that could promote cancer or brain diseases.
CEO and founder of RF Safe John Coates urges consumers to be aware of the following:
-Children absorb a greater amount of microwave radiation than adults.
-Fetuses are even more vulnerable than children,so pregnant women should avoid exposing their fetus to microwave radiation.
-Adolescent girls and women should not place cellphones in their bras.
-Cellphone manual warnings make clear an overexposure problem exists.
-Government warnings have been issued but most of the public are unaware of such warnings.
-Current exposure limits are inadequate and should be revised.
-Wireless devices are radio transmitters, not toys.
RF Safe, Manufacturer of Peel n Shield™, proudly introduces new Wi-Fi Radiation Safety Accessories.
These accessories now feature most current technology to protect the entire home from excessive microwave radiation exposure.
The new shielding accessories include:
-EMF/RF safe apparel for men, women, toddlers, and infants
-Anti-radiation maternity wear for expectant mother to protect mom and baby
-Custom radiation shielding for baby's crib and nursery
-EMF/RF shielded aprons for protection in the kitchen
"Users need to research the hazards of cellphone radiation, and the simple accessories that can reduce health risk from excessive Wi-Fi radiation exposure," says Coates.

No court would convict me.
It it weren't for the fact that he's obviously getting his sexual jollies from the experience and destroying lives, the guy described in this article would qualify as a brilliant performance artist.
You've probably heard about him before, he calls fast food place and says that he's a policeman. One of the young ladies on staff is a thief. He gets a manager to take her back to the office and strip her to search for stolen merchandise. In one case he even convinced the manager that the young staff member should perform sexual acts on him as punishment for how bad she's been.
Here's another shocking fact. He's able to do this more than one out of every ten times he tries.
People believe him and destroy their lives as they blindly follow orders. Just amazing.
The article is really long and detailed. It ends with:
"I can understand how people can question what he did," Schmidt said. "But they weren't in the same position. Maybe you and I wouldn't have done this, but how do we know?
I can conclusively say that I would never do it. Never. And that anyone who does do it is an idiot.
What an interesting peek into human nature. People are creepy.

(from the Press Tribune)
The 65 hospitals were selected from nearly 1,200 facilities
"As a result we have lowered the chances of our members dying from heart disease 30 percent below the community around us, reduced mortality for patients admitted with sepsis by 50 percent, and dramatically reduced the risk of our members dying from cancer compared to the rest of the nation," Pearl said.
Founded in 1945, Kaiser Permanente currently serves 8.6 million members in nine states and the District of Columbia, including more than 3.2 million patients in northern California.
"We received the award for meeting stringent criteria for providing high-quality care safely and efficiently," said Sandy Sharon, chief operating officer for Kaiser Roseville Medical Center. "Our success in the areas of preventing infection, safety practices and mortality rates for common procedures was recognized. We were also recognized for our vast electronic medical record system, which makes vital health care information available instantly."
The Leapfrog Group is a coalition of public and private purchasers of employee health coverage founded in 2000 to work for improvements in health care safety, quality and affordability. The independent advocacy group works with a broad range of partners, including hospitals and insurers.
The annual survey is the only voluntary effort of its kind. The 2010 list includes university and other teaching hospitals, children's hospitals and community hospitals in rural, suburban and urban settings.
The selection is based on the results of the Leapfrog Group's national survey that measures hospitals' performance in patient safety and quality.
"This award is in direct alignment with our mission to improve the health of our members and the communities we serve, and it is a milestone in our journey to continuously improve care," Sharon said.

When an enterprise database stage such as DB2 or Oracle is set to upsert it is possible to create a reject link to trap rows that fail any update or insert statements. By default this reject link holds just the columns written to the stage, they do not show any columns indicating why the row was rejected and often no warnings or error messages appear in the job log.
StepsThere is an undocumented feature in the DB2 and Oracle enterprise stage where a reject link out of the stage will carry two new fields, sqlstate and sqlcode. These hold the return codes from the RDBMS engine for failed upsert transactions. The fields are called sqlstate and sqlcode.
To see these values add a peek to your reject link, the sqlstate and sqlcode should turn up for each rejected row in the job log. To trap these values add a copy stage to your reject link, add sqlstate and sqlcode to the list of output columns, on the output columns tab check the "Runtime column propagation" check box, this will turn your two new columns from invalid red columns to black and let your job compile. If you do not see this check box use the Administrator tool to turn on column propagation for your project.
When the job runs and a RDBMS reject occurs the record is sent down the reject link, two new columns are propagated down that link and are defined by the copy stage and can then be written out to an error handling table or file.
If you do not want to turn on column propagation for your project you can still define the two new columns with a Modify stage by creating them in two specifications. sqlcode=sqlcode and sqlstate=sqlstate. Despite column propagation being turned off the Modify stage will still find the two columns on the input link and use the specification to add them to the output schema.
ExamplesOracle By default, oraupsert produces no output data set. By using the -reject option, you can specify an optional output data set containing the records that fail to be inserted or updated. It's syntax is: -reject filename For a failed insert record, these sqlcodes cause the record to be transferred to your reject dataset: -1400: cannot insert NULL -1401: inserted value too large for column -1438: value larger than specified precision allows for this column -1480: trailing null missing from string bind value
For a failed update record, these sqlcodes cause the record to be transferred to your reject dataset: -1: unique constraint violation -1401: inserted value too large for column -1403: update record not found -1407: cannot update to null -1438: value larger than specified precision allows for this column -1480: trailing null missing from string bind value An insert record that fails because of a unique constraint violation (sqlcode of -1) is used for updating.
DB2 When you specify the -reject option, any update record that receives a status of SQL_PARAM_ERROR is written to your reject data set. It's syntax is: -reject filename
ConclusionAlways place a reject link on a Database stage that performs an upsert. There is no other way to trap rows that fail that upsert statement.
For other database actions such as load or import a different method of trapping rejects and messages is required.

Raising children is an incredible accomplishment, but it's also a huge source of stress. Sleepless nights, planning healthy meals, dealing with temper tantrums and public potty accidents make it incredibly easy to forget the joys of motherhood.
It's important to remember the fun and funny parts of being a mom, if only for your sanity's sake. After all, children are a blessing - our little girls and boys bring something special into our lives. Whether that's a ridiculous hairstyle or an awkward feeding face, these tiny moments make the sleepless nights worth it.
Motherhood as a concept is also a great source of inspiration. Only fellow moms truly understand the life-changing nature of giving birth, and it's amazing to read their stories of delivery. What's more, every mother parents their children differently. It's fun to learn your own parenting style, and you can pick up tips from other mothers. Maybe you'll find new adventures worth celebrating, or maybe you'll decide to get your first tattoo.
The joys of motherhood are innumerable, and while no quote can sum them up neatly, there are certainly a few that will bring a smile to your face. On those rare occasions you get a few moments of calm, put your feet up and read a fun article or two that puts the stress of raising children into perspective.
Being a Mom is a job of its own and we want to help you remember to treat yourself also! Mom365 has some helpful advice, tips, and knowledge to help you throughout the early years of Motherhood.

For consumer-facing startups, there's no larger validation than having consumers actually purchasing and using your products or services. Hence goes the primary premise behind Startup Rounds, a hybrid crowdfunding platform, startup incubator, and startup competition, which has just announced that January 27th will be the date of its final showcase for its consumer startup competition.
"We looked at existing competitions for new or aspiring ventures and saw that the decisions were in the hands of a few people that don't necessarily see the value of the products for the current consumer market," said Startup Rounds cofounder Paul Hammond. "We are creating not only a funding space, but a platform where customers are empowered to be the judges, essentially democratizing business competitions to let the people who use these products decide on the most deserving winners."
Startup Rounds is a unique platform and competition that allows startups to showcase their various products and services, and consequently attempt to gain the interest of potential consumers. By allowing people to actually get on Startup Rounds and make purchases from the startups themselves, such nascent companies in the competition are provided with desperately-needed market validation; the more sales and pre-sales to consumers each company is able to make, the higher their ranking on the platform and overall competition.
Currently in the final round of the competition, the top 10 remaining startups that survive this round will move on to compete in the Startup Rounds Final Showcase, where each of the startups will compete for the top prize. This top prize package includes $30,000 in cash and over $100,000 in additional resources, such as $10,000 in legal, $5,000 of monthly Cloud computing for up to one year, a shared workspace, as well as marketing and accounting services.
As it stands, some of the companies currently placed in the top 10 slots in the competition include Freight Frog, a company that provides an app that finds and coordinates the cheapest services to use for cross-country moves; Jubali, a producer of healthy beverages; and Blanc, Inc., which has designed the Spark smartwatch, which gently vibrates to keep you awake when it detects you dozing off. Whether these companies will remain in the top 10 depends, of course, on the consumers who choose whether or not to support their ventures – which can all change by the time this round ends on December 15.
The Startup Rounds Final Showcase will take place on January 27, 2015 at the Microsoft NERD Center. To learn more about Startup Rounds, visit their website.

*-- Documents show Trump paid $38M in 2005 income taxes --*
Forms made public Tuesday night show President Donald Trump paid $38 million in federal income tax on more than $150 million in income in 2005.
The information was first shared on MSNBC's The Rachel Maddow Show after DCReport.org founder and former New York Times reporter David Cay Johnston said he received two pages from Trump's 2005 Form 1040 through the U.S. Postal Service.
The documents showed Trump reported about $152 million in income, including $67 million in rental income. He paid $38 million in taxes, the majority of it -- $31 million -- under the alternative minimum tax, which Trump has said he wants to get rid of. Without the alternative minimum tax, Trump would've paid $5 million in taxes in addition to nearly $2 million in self-employment taxes.
The papers also showed a writedown of $103.2 million in business losses.
Maddow tweeted about obtaining the tax documents in the hours before she said she planned to release the details on her show. Prior to the program, the White House released a statement saying Trump also paid "tens of millions of dollars in other taxes, such as sales and excise taxes" and describing the business losses listed as "large-scale depreciation for construction."
"Before being elected president, Mr. Trump was one of the most successful businessmen in the world, with a responsibility to his company, his family and his employees to pay no more tax than legally required," the statement said.
The White House also criticized the "dishonest media" for the report on the "illegally published" tax returns.
"Despite this substantial income figure and tax paid, it is totally illegal to steal and publish tax returns," the White House said. "The dishonest media can continue to make this part of their agenda, while the president will focus on his, which includes tax reform that will benefit all Americans."
Trump responded to the report on Twitter on Wednesday morning, questioning how the documents were obtained. Johnston said he did not solicit the tax documents.
"Does anybody really believe that a reporter, who nobody ever heard of, "went to his mailbox" and found my tax returns? [NBC News] FAKE NEWS!" Trump wrote.
Trump did not release any of his recent tax returns during the presidential campaign, breaking with decades of tradition. He initially promised to release the information, then said he wouldn't because they were under audit. The Internal Revenue Service said an audit would not prevent a person from making their tax returns public, and it did not confirm Trump was under audit.
Trump's rival, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, speculated Trump didn't want to release his tax returns because they would show he didn't pay federal income taxes.

Image Of The Month - July 2014
This is the iconic Rosebud Diner that's been a New England landmark in the Davis Square neighborhood of Somerville Massachusetts since the 1940s and is listed on the National Register Of Historic Places. In 2013, after 40 years of family ownership, the Rosebud was sold to the founder of a chain of Italian restaurants who has promised to leave the exterior untouched.
With this capture, I wanted to do justice to the wonderful retro feel that this place has with the conversion to a black and white image, while also retaining the marvellous fluorescent colors of the neon sign. A little bit of Photoshop magic later and this was the result. I'm very pleased with how this image came out. The fire hydrant and the light on the sidewalk really complete the effect for me.

The Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund (TLDEF) just filed a Complaint with the Florida Commission on Human Relations against an Orlando McDonald's restaurant for refusing to hire 17-year-old Zikerria Bellamy because she is transgender.
In July, Bellamy applied online for a Shift Manager/Crew Leader position. Later in the month when she was called in for an interview, a manager forced her to check a box indicating her sex. Bellamy recounts that when she checked "male" the manager became visibly angry. At that point Bellamy was denied an interview and later that day received a hateful voicemail from the McDonald's manager stating: "You will not get hired. We do note hire faggots. You lied to me. You told me you was a woman."
As TLDEF points out:
Zikerria's story is all too common. Transgender people face tremendous discrimination in the workplace. According to a recent survey by the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force and the National Center for Transgender Equality, 47% of transgender people report being fired, or denied a job or promotion, just because of who they are.
Few protections exist for transgender people who experience employment discrimination. In 38 states, there is no law protecting transgender people from being fired because of who they are. Federal law similarly offers no job protection for transgender people.
TLDEF is asking people to spread the word about what happened to Zikerria Bellamy in order to intervene and prevent this sort of discrimination from happening to others. TLDEF would also like us to contact congress and demand that it take action on the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) (S.1584):
At the federal level, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) (S.1584) would address discrimination in the workplace by making it illegal to fire, refuse to hire, or refuse to promote an employee based on the person's gender identity or sexual orientation at companies with fifteen or more employees. The legislation was introduced in the United States Senate on August 5, 2009. On November 5, the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee held the Senate's first hearing on the latest version of ENDA. A version of ENDA was also introduced in the United States House of Representatives on June 24, 2009. The House Education and Labor Committee held a hearing on the measure on September 23. Little has happened since.
TLDEF recommends that we:
Call the Capitol Switchboard at 202.224.3121 and ask to speak to your Representative (have your zip code handy and they'll help identify your member of Congress).
When you are connected with your Representative's office, give your name and your city and then let them know:
I am calling in support of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (H. R. 3017/S. 1584), which will protect lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people from job discrimination. No one deserves to be fired from their job because of who they are. No more delays--it is time to pass ENDA.
You can also tell them that you've heard about Zikerria Bellamy's case. If you get voicemail instead of a person, leave a message - they count just as much as if you reach a staff member. You can call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If you've called in the past, no problem. Call again.
There is obviously a pressing need for legislation like ENDA. Yet, as Bellamy's case illustrates, there are still other institutional and structural issues that contribute the problem of unemployment for many trans people. Certainly the job application that Bellamy filled out shows how employers as a matter of course – as opposed to bigotry – refuse to acknowledge the existence of potential trans employees. Having to mark a legal sex on a job application that is different than the sex the applicant is currently living as is itself a barrier that excludes trans people from employment. For instance, it was when Bellamy was forced by a manager to indicate her legally assigned sex on her application that she first encountered the expressed hostility of the McDonald's manager. And in the voicemail the manager claims that Bellamy "lied" to him about her sex when she identified herself as a woman. Thus, institutional factors related to McDonald's hiring system are reflected in the manager's individual bigotry – that is to say, both the system and the individual are operating on cis-biased presumptions about potential employees that by default deny the very possibility of trans people's existence.

OK...heard back from the hospital. Good news! Well, as good as can be with this.
I am not a risk. I just carry the bug on me.
That sounds gross. But, it is kinda gross.
I guess, at some point in my life, I came across the MRSA bug. Instead of infecting me with the nasty staph infection, it decided to lay dormant. So, even though I've tested positive for having it, I am at no risk to me, my family or my friends. I actually don't even have to worry about it unless I happen to cut myself, it gets infected and doesn't start to heal within a couple of days.
Basically, what happened in November was this: I was admitted for a same-day procedure (my Remicade infusion). Since they did the test that day, they didn't have the results and when the results came in the hospital sent them to my admitting doctor's office. It was his office that failed to contact me regarding the results. So, now, I've got to call them and find out why they said they didn't know anything about it yesterday.
What a fucking mess.
Well, what's important are these things: I'm just a carrier. I'm not at risk to anyone - especially my kids. Just have to be careful with any and all cuts from now on.
Guess I'll stop shaving my legs, pits and........
Um, yeah, right, like that would happen!

As odd as it is, I'm glad you are just a carrier and are not infected. Still, to have anything to do with it at all bites. I'm going to be curious to see what your doctor's office says.ReplyDelete

To go or not to go?
We might have the opportunity to send Caleb to pre-k in the fall. I just found this out last week, and now my universe has been altered. I had it in mind that Caleb would be at home one more year before starting Kindergarten, since we really can't afford preschool. But this opportunity has come up, and it's very hard to say no. My only hangup is that it's 8-3 every day. For my boy that still takes a 2 hour nap every day, 8-3 is going to be hard for us. I'm sure they will get a rest time, (they better, if they know what's good for them!) But that is not 2 hours in bed at home = not top-quality rest.
I am torn. Send him or not? I still have to apply and be approved, but I think the mama in me is the only one here that isn't ready. I'm sure he would do fine, and probably excel beyond my expectations. But he's my baby!!! When did this growing up business happen!?

Having been a preschool teacher these past 5 years after spending 10 years as a SAHM, I totally understand your dilemma.
On one hand, none of my own kids went to preschool & they have all done just fine in elementary school (& beyond). On the other hand, I watch kids come through our school all the time & think "Boy it's good that you started this one at 3-4! They would've been lost when they started K!"
So I can go either way on it. If you're doing some supplemental (academic type) activities at home & Caleb is learning social skills at church/MOPS, etc, then I bet he'll be fine in K next year without attending PreK.
However, if 'teaching' is really not your very best 'mama strength' there is nothing wrong w/ letting someone else do that this year.
Like you, my thoughts on it when my kids were four was the whole Monday thru Friday thing. Lots of hours away from home & mom...and they'll be in full time school the next 13 years, so why rush it?
Pray about it. I bet He'll show you the answer!

I think about Elle a few years ago--and she was so super ready to start school..so I just started her in a 3 day a week school for half the year and then half the year I put her in full time...5 days per week...and I will tell you--as awful as it was on me...I do not regret it--because kindergarten is rough these days! They don't take naps--AT ALL...and they are going full blast all day...so even WITH the five days per week, it took her a few weeks to get adjusted without the naptime that she had in preschool...and Elle never struggled academically or socially, and she loves school...but it is a huge adjustment. I taught kindergarten for a long time and I know that with boys, it is always even harder...so I know with "the Beast" we will have to go to preschool for longer...he will start kindergarten later than she did, etc...
Keep praying about it--but I can't think of anything negative about it for Caleb.
