text: Friday, April 15, 2011 Legislation Would Eliminate 'Cap' on Physical Therapy Services for Medicare Beneficiaries Legislation introduced April 14, 2011, would eliminate the onerous therapy cap that has imposed arbitrary limits on physical therapy services so often needed by senior citizens after a stroke, traumatic brain injury, or hip fracture, or to effectively manage conditions such as Parkinson disease, multiple sclerosis, or arthritis, says APTA. The Medicare Access to Rehabilitation Services Act (HR 1546 /S 829) introduced in the US House of Representatives by Reps Jim Gerlach (R-PA) and Xavier Becerra (D-CA), and in the US Senate by Senators Ben Cardin (D-MD) and Susan Collins (R-ME) would permanently repeal the $1,870 therapy "cap" imposed on physical therapy and physical therapy and speech-language pathology services for all outpatient settings, with the exception for hospital outpatient departments. A separate cap applies to occupational therapy. "The detrimental effects of the therapy caps on patients are well-documented," said APTA President R. Scott Ward, PT, PhD. "The cap is simply a bad policy that must be completely reversed." Comments At last another achievement by the APTA and its members. I am happy for my patients and my colleagues in the private practice setting! Posted by Jose Arves Santos, PT on 4/15/2011 1:39 PM This is a great achievement not only for the profession but most especially for the patients!! Posted by Gemmarie Ramiscal, PT on 4/15/2011 2:45 PM Way to go, great accomplishment which will benefit the patients for sure. Posted by AMJAD BHATTI, PT on 4/15/2011 3:34 PM good news! Hope it succeeds. Maybe lead to DA for Medicare... Posted by James on 4/15/2011 3:39 PM APTA efforts to eliminate this therapy "cap" needs to continue until the "cap" is gone. Only through continued lobbying and member involvement with their elected officials will the physical therapy profession attain professional recognition and independent practice. Keep the pressure on! Posted by Bruce C. Diven, DPT on 4/15/2011 3:57 PM Right on!! Thanks for your hard work. Posted by Marnee Crawford on 4/15/2011 4:08 PM Good work APTA. Not surprising that Becerra is an author. He is truly one of the good guys in politics. Posted by Paul Gaspar on 4/15/2011 4:18 PM I can't believe it! This is a long time coming. If the cap is eliminated on PT in private practice I will celebrate and cheer to the roof tops. Hopefully the rest of Congress will pass the new bill. Thank you for the info - GOOD NEWS. Pam Chaney, PT Posted by Pam Chaney on 4/15/2011 5:37 PM This is a nice first step ...still a long way to go and a lot of work to do..we've been down this road before Posted by joe napolitano,P.T. on 4/15/2011 8:45 PM This is woonderful news!!! Posted by Julie Agbasi on 4/15/2011 9:08 PM The hospital based clinics have had an unfair advantage over private practice clinics which has never made sense for cost control. Hopefully this is it for good and allows fair treatment practices for all. Posted by Nadine De freitas on 4/15/2011 9:45 PM Great news! Hopefully things are going to start changing in Capitol Hill to benefit our beloved patients. Posted by Nilma Elias PT,DPT on 4/16/2011 7:30 AM I've been at this wonderful profession for 50 years and this is significant news for all of us that provide services for our patients. Everyone is to be commended. This is one of those days it makes me proud to be a member of APTA. Posted by Peter Lord on 4/16/2011 7:44 AM Great, just in time to eliminate medicare! Posted by Fred DiBernardo on 4/16/2011 8:07 AM Thank you for all your hard work and determination. We thank you, and our patient's thank you. Posted by Vicki Wilkins PT, DPT on 4/16/2011 11:47 AM It's unfair and foolish to encourage patients to seek the higher priced hospital setting for services that can be provided efficiently and locally by qualified and motivated local professionals. Clearly this is not a plan that was meant to help our country survive a financial crisis. Thank you APTA for standing up for the Davids of physical therapy in this Goliath world of big business and back room deals. Posted by Alan Silk, PT on 4/16/2011 11:53 AM Before we get too celebratory over pending legislation we should reflect on how APTA and ASHA allowed PT and SLP to be lumped into the same cap while the AOTA was able to maintain their separate cap. It has taken a long time to get a proposed change to this point so hopefully the tea party will be a short one. The reason that hospital settings had an exemption is that their therapists have no direct financial benefit from providing excessive therapy. Despite our conceptions of PTs being above reproach ethically there is at least a subconscious tendency to extend the full length of the prescription or maintain 3x/week instead of decreasing frequency when there are lots of open slots in a private practice's schedule. The biggest drain on Medicare rehab dollars, however, is the continued provision of "therapy" within MD offices. Posted by Eric Bradford PT, MBA on 4/16/2011 2:28 PM I believe the lumping of PT and ST goes way back to the original legislation in the early 70s setting outpatient regs. At that time only PT and ST were covered in the regs and OT was added later, therefore as other reimbursement issues were addressed the original language and regulation were used. When the caps first emerged, the lumping of PT and ST was a done deal and the APTA has been fighting for complete repeal ever since. Posted by Barb Amidon on 4/17/2011 8:17 AM With the tea party's recent influence on legislation does this bill have any chance of becoming law? A huge thank you to those on the ground lobbying for this important repeal. Jennifer Posted by Jennifer F on 4/17/2011 2:00 PM It's great news about elimation of cap for medicare patient.Good Job APTA. we should fight hard until it's implemented.PT can do help Posted by muthu murugan on 4/17/2011 9:20 PM Great job APTA. Congratulations. This will tremendously help for our elderly population. Posted by Jayantha Liyanage on 4/18/2011 9:49 AM What can we do to help this legislation along? Posted by Brett Fahnstrom on 4/18/2011 10:32 AM I don't see this bill reaching the house floor for debate. Continuous changes of reimbursement through the continuum of care. The push for allocations of dollars to hospitals for government control/ budgeting. The fight was lost many years ago. This is bigger than a Pt. care issue now. Good luck APTA. Posted by Jim D on 4/18/2011 1:09 PM This is goo Posted by Linda Coetzee on 4/18/2011 7:08 PM My 81-year-old mother suffered a traumatic brain injury one year ago. We have struggled so much to get her the therapy she needs. I am heartened by the pending legislation, but even moreso by reading these comments from a community of people who are so passionate about what they do. It shows me there is hope. How can I help to push the legislation? Posted by Maria B on 4/19/2011 10:22 AM Great job, APTA! I am so proud to belong to an association strongly dedicated to the patients they serve. Keep up the excellent work! Posted by Carmencita Walls -> >OP\BG on 4/27/2011 7:52 AM

Product Warranties

Who are you guys?
Street Diesel Power specializes in not just selling products, but helping you make educated decisions on modifying your truck. Unfortunately, the rest of the diesel industry is not built on this foundation. We have chosen to focus on specific products with proven performance, warranties and results. This allows us to accurately tell you what the product will do, how it will perform and what to expect. As a result, our site is smaller than some of the other big box stores. We did this buy design. Instead of having thousands of products on our site, with an under-experienced phone staff answering the calls, we chose the opposite.
When you contact Street Diesel Power, you are speaking with its Co-Founder who has spent the last 8 years in the industry - at its highest levels. This experience and know-how is passed along to you to choose the right products, at the right price. No games, no pushing you into products you don't want. Just honest answers, stellar customer service and a place you can come back to for your diesel performance needs.
Where are you located?
We are located in Arvada, CO and have distribution centers from coast to coast. Because of this, we are able to get products to you faster, and cheaper, than the competition.
When will my order arrive?
Most products are in-stock all the time. Build-to-order products, like transmissions or custom turbo kits, can have 1-2 week lead times.
What is a core charge?
A core charge is a refundable deposit required by manufacturers to ensure factory parts are returned to them. Many products utilize factory components in a build or product. The core charge ensures the manufacturer has a steady supply of cores to keep building the product. Without a core charge, manufacturers would be required to cast, machine or design intricate and complex parts. This cost would price many products out of the market.
Is there a warranty on parts?
Each part is warrantied by its manufacturer. In the event a particular product does not carry a warranty, this is noted on their site, literature and installation instructions. Please contact us to learn more about manufacturer warranties and requirements.
How can I become a dealer?
If you are interested in joining the Street Diesel Power team as an official dealer, please fill out the pre-application here. We will review your information and contact you to setup a dealer account. This dealer account will provide discounts on popular products, drop-ship services and technical assistance.
Do you price match?
We not only price match, we price beat. Email firstname.lastname@example.com with a copy of a quote on any product we sell. We will beat that price. Please ensure the product quoted is correct for your year, make and model.
Do you accept returns?
Returns are accepted and require an RMA number. To receive an RMA number, contact Street Diesel Power. Each manufacturer has different re-stocking fees. They vary between 5%-20%. This amount is kept by the manufacturer to inspect and re-stock the product. Your refund would be for the purchase amount, minus shipping (both ways) and the applicable re-stock fee.
Can I get a package deal?
Absolutely! Visit our Package Deal page and fill out the form. We will reply back with the cheapest price on the parts you selected.
Can I get a catalog?
To offer you the lowest price possible, we have created a website with tons of information, pricing and technical tips. The best source for product information is our website. However, some manufacturers will include their specific catalog with their products.
Will I enjoy my shopping experience?
Street Diesel Power guarantees a no-hassle, friendly and informative shopping experience. If we don't know the answer to your question, we will find out - whether you purchase from us or not. Sit back, browse our site, and enjoy the best products from leading manufacturers for YOUR specific truck.
Is it easy to access tracking information for my order?
Once your order ships, Street Diesel Power will automatically email your tracking number to you.
Is it easy to return a product?
Please contact Street Diesel Power to initiate a return. We will obtain an RMA number from the manufacturer for you. With this number, you can return the product for inspection and credit.
How does your online store work?
Street Diesel Power organizes products by make and year of diesel pickup truck. Next, customers can select specific product categories, such as transmissions or gauges or intercoolers. In each category, Street Diesel Power lists options and pricing. After adding a product to your cart, you will proceed to the checkout process. After filling in this information and making the purchase, your order is processed and payment method charged. The order is fulfilled by the manufacturer, processed for shipment and sent via USPS, UPS, FedEx or truck freight. Street Diesel Power will provide the tracking number to you and your order will arrive shortly!
What do I need for an Exhaust brake installation?
All exhaust brake kits ship complete with the wiring, hoses, mounting group and any needed electronics.
What Dodge torque converter should I use?
Multi-clutch converters provide the longest life and most power transfer on light duty trucks. The best converter we have come across in our experience is the ATS Five Star Converter. From stock to over 2000 ft/lbs of torque, this converter has done it all. For price savings, we also offer the ATS TripleLok and ATS Billet Single Disc converter.
When do I need gauges?
Gauges are needed on stock trucks. As trucks have gotten more advanced, the Big 3 have recognized the need for owners to monitor engine and transmission vitals. The problem is, they stop short of a full set of diagnostic gauges. Some will have engine and boost gauges, but usually leave out EGT's, rail pressure, fuel pressure and other key vitals. As a truck is modified, monitoring these signs becomes even more important to avoid engine, turbo or transmission damage.
Which Dodge clutch do I need?
In general, a stock to very mild truck simply needs an organic/feramic clutch kit with upgraded hydraulics. Once power reaches 500 hp, we are firm believers in dual disc clutches with various pressure plates to remain reliable under increased torque and towing weight.
Why do I need to upgrade the exhaust?
Stock exhausts are designed to be quiet, cheap and support stock power. As power is added to the motor, stock exhaust systems fail to quickly evacuate the gases and heat can become an issue. Aftermarket exhaust systems are offered in aluminized and stainless steel, as well as in larger diameters. This increased diameter helps lower EGT's and support higher power levels.

Classic White Subway Tile in Master Bathroom
An excellent way to add architectural interest to a bathroom is to cover the walls in classic white subway tile. To create a high-contrast look, opt for charcoal grout. Keep in mind when sourcing grout that it's not available in a true black. Although it may appear black in the package, once dry, it takes on medium-to-dark charcoal tone which becomes apparent when used between black tiles, resulting in a mismatched look.

Turquoise and White Teen Bathroom
This fun and functional bathroom design has turquoise accents, iridescent wallpaper and colorful cabinet pulls by Pottery Barn. The Roman shade features Malabar fabric and beaded fringe.
Red, White and Blue
Blake's room has a military theme enunciated in the patriotic color scheme and the campaign dresser.
White, Eclectic Open Plan Kitchen
Vivid colors, fanciful patterns and rustic details define this 6,000-square-foot mountain ski home in Park City, Utah. Bright, saturated fabrics and bold patterns mingle with metal finishes and woods to create a dramatic yet rustic tone. The design team seamlessly blended the client's love of pattern and color with the ruggedness of the Park City landscape.
Beach House Balcony Offers Panoramic Views of Sand Dunes, Atlantic Ocean
A public beach access walkway creates additional space between this New Hampshire beach house and the neighboring one and opens up more panoramic views from the two upper levels of the home. Glass safety walls were chosen for the balcony, limiting the interruption of the views of the sand dunes and Atlantic Ocean.
Spiral Stairs and Black Tile Floor
Trips up and down these spiral stairs have all the exotic style of a Moroccan escape with the stair's light-colored wood in bold contrast to the graphic floor.
Guest Bedroom
"I tried to make it feel as daring as the rest of the house, but also like a pretty getaway," Sonal says. For resort vibes, she chose a wicker headboard from World Market, a basket-y light from Serena & Lily, and grass cloth wallpaper by Phillip Jeffries. "My mom stays here a lot and she always asks, "Are you ever going to get tired of the blue?" Sonal says. "I tell her no! There's so much to look at in our house, I never get tired of any of it."
Zane's Room
The animal-loving little boy wanted the wilderness in his space. After painting it the same greige as in the dining room, Sonal stuck on a vinyl decal world map from Wallums and hung a wicker antelope head from Target. Zane picked out the light (from All Modern): "He said it's like stars in the sky," says Sonal. With a tent from Crate & Kids and a throw with pine trees (also from Target), the room is almost a permanent campout.
Master Bathroom
The inspiration for the room's tile-on-tile look came from Turkish bathhouses the family visited on vacation. Sonal put oversize cream-color hex tile on the floor, and graphic cement tile from Cement Tile Shop on the wall above the vanity. "Blending patterns in different sizes and scales looks exciting," she says. A curvy bronze-edged mirror from Uttermost and an aged-finish vanity by Cabinetcraft Custom Cabinetry clinches the bathhouse vibe.
Master Bedroom
"We filled it with things that made our eyes happy," says Sonal. That meant navy blue on the walls and the ceiling (Hale Navy by Benjamin Moore) and a glass-bead chandelier from Currey & Company. The various styles of furniture, all neutrals, blend in a cool, relaxed way, including a bed with crisscrossed metal accents and a white upholstered chair (both from RH) plus a whitewashed wood nightstand by Noir.
Dining Room
How to freshen up classic board-and-batten paneling: Paint all of it, as well as the window casings, dark gray (Porpoise by Sherwin-Williams). The rich blue of the chairs—scored at a vintage store—go beautifully with the color. "They seem grand but not stuffy or formal," says Sonal. "We use one as the special birthday chair when cutting cake with family." They're paired with white plastic molded chairs from Overstock and an industrial table from RH. Instead of traditional fabric curtains, Lisa hung fringy macramé ones from RH Teen for an unexpected hit of texture. The rug is from Nourison.
Transitional Chef Kitchen With Leather Stools
Instead of upper cabinets, which might make this kitchen feel cramped, designers went with a row of large windows. Reclaimed wood beams give focus to the high ceiling.
"It seems counterintuitive, but color and pattern chaos in my office motivates me," says Sonal, who designs textiles. That explains the eclectic combination of woven baskets on the wall and layered rugs on the floor. The desk, with pyramid legs and a sleek glass top, has big-time presence. Adding to the glam mishmash: orange poufs from Surya, a blue-and-white ikat chair from Anthropologie, and curtains made with indigo-dyed fabric by Lewis & Sheron Textiles.
The House
Go big and stay home: That's basically Sonal Patel-Cochran's motto. "I've always gravitated toward more of everything in a house—more color, more pattern, more texture," she says. "It makes doing simple things like hanging out on the couch feel kind of adventurous." So when she and her husband, Russell Cochran, bought their five-bedroom house in Atlanta, GA—a major upgrade from their two-bedroom condo—Sonal was raring to deck it out with statement decor inspired by her passion for travel. For starters, she had all the trim painted dark and medium grays. "Since lighting also sets the tone of a room, we put in big, eye-catching kinds," she says. The couple turned to designer Lisa Gabrielson for a hand with the furnishings, requesting unexpected shapes, not-shy patterns, and funky textures with global flair. It's a mix that manages to feel both worldly and cozy. Says Sonal, "People walk into our house and go, whoa. That's how I like it!"
Breakfast Nook
The art—two pieces by Parvez Taj—is the view in this breakfast room. More pattern plays: chairs with paisley-like detail from Urban Outfitters and a triangle-accented rug from West Elm.
Dark gray cabinets are striking in a kitchen, especially when set against a white backsplash with Moroccan-style tile from Walker Zanger. A white quartz-top island surrounded by black Arhaus counter stools also has high-contrast, high-impact style—yet it's easy to clean after crafting marathons. Above it, Sonal hung two giant lanterns by Savoy House in a finish that plays off the cabinet color.
For years, Sonal collected whimsical art she liked, with no plan for where it would all go. The kids' playroom was a natural fit. All the games stacked inside the metal World Market console with a peek-a-boo front rev up the fun. The table is by West Elm…and Mira and Zane: "It has splatters from their projects, which makes me love it even more," says Sonal. The crocheted pouf was handmade by Sonal's mom in the '70s.
Contemporary Floating Staircase with Glass Rail
A floating staircase in pale natural wood tones adds design distinction to this waterfront contemporary home in Newport Beach, California. A glass railing extends down to become a glass wall, adding both function and style. White-painted walls create an open and airy vibe that continues throughout the home.
Modern Loft Dining Area with Oak Table and Eames Chairs
This modern loft dining area features a white oak table with Eames chairs juxtaposed with matte black walls, exposed brick and reclaimed wood throughout.

An ordinance that would rezone the 33.4 acre site on the south side DuPont Parkway from suburban reserve to industrial was introduced at Tuesday's New Castle County Land Use committee meeting.
North Smyrna area residents were not happy with a plan that will turn 34 acres of land across from their development into a new facility for Waste Industries.
But an attorney speaking on behalf of the developer made the argument that developing the land between the Del. Route 1 and U.S. Route 13 interchange would be consistent with the community character.
Just a few thousand feet down the road is a Delaware Department of Transportation maintenance yard.
An ordinance that would rezone the 33.4 acre site on the south side DuPont Parkway from suburban reserve to industrial was introduced at Tuesday's New Castle County Land Use committee meeting.
From there, a 15,040 square foot industrial building would be constructed where Waste Industries will move from their current location in Townsend.
The site where Waste Industries looks to expand is located north of the town limits of Smyrna and across from the Village of Savannah, a community of single family homes. The company, which has locations throughout the tri-state area, has outgrown its current Townsend location and wants to expand so that it can continue to serve the southern New Castle County population, said Larry Tarabicos, the attorney speaking on behalf of Waste Industries.
"Waste Industries has outgrown its Townsend facility and needs to move or leave the area," he said. "They're looking to expand."
Residents living in the Village of Savannah don't want to see their community turn industrial though.
"Garbage trucks will ruin our property value," said resident Hershell Nash. "We don't mind having neighbors, just send us someone else."
The Smyrna location would not have trash or recycling on site – it would only house the trucks. The only other uses at the site, Tarabicos said, would be truck maintenance and administrative.
Trash would continue to go to one of six Solid Waste Authority facilities in the state.
Despite this, residents expressed concerns with safety – as the interchange is already a traffic nightmare, some said – property value, and water quality.
Deed restrictions that would be recorded with the plan would require putting monitoring wells in place to ensure that the water remained clean, Tarabicos said.
Other deed restrictions that would safeguard against noise and other uses would also be recorded with the plan if it is passed by New Castle County Council.
The county Planning Board was deadlocked with its vote, with three members in favor and three opposed to the rezoning.
State Senator Bruce Ennis (Smyrna) spoke on behalf of his constituents Tuesday, opposing the plan and asking why this location was chosen.
"Neighboring properties near the Village of Savannah area are agricultural and residential and should remain as such," he said.
County council will vote on the rezoning at its Feb. 26 meeting.

"Okay," she responded and also the good news is pressed no even more.
"What is this meat?" Nokomis asked checking out the meat sticking out where she had actually attacked off a scrap.
I led her via the roads, usually offering her a mild pull as she quit to look. We neared the boundary of the Enjoyment Area and also the Lower Market.
"I have actually constantly intended to go to the Satisfaction Area with all it's carnal exploitations!" Nokomis spouted out. I resorted to her stunned as well as saw she was flushing.
"What for the gods is that?" Nokomis murmured in my ear.
I took Nokomis's hand as well as led her down the side street to a back entryway. Nokomis laughed as I knocked.
"Okay, lead the method Jack," she stated rather toos happily. Nokomis appeared like a youngster experiencing the globe for the initial time, yet I desired to lead and also safeguard her.

We neared the boundary of the Satisfaction Area as well as the Lower Market. Nokomis appeared like a youngster experiencing the globe for the initial time, yet I desired to assist as well as secure her.
"Allow's go Miss Nokomis; I have a close friend not much from right here," I informed her taking her hand and also leading her right into a globe international to her.
"Uncertain, really did not ask. Not exactly sure I need to know," I addressed wishing she really did not ask. When those were inaccessible meat was frequently discovered somewhere else, Road supplier's frequently got the butcher's scraps yet.

Also, to a post above why do people get so offended when the Pens are referred to as old? when they were the oldest team in the playoffs and 4 of 5 guys signed this summer are 34 or older?
I get that the core is young but a part of our problem is depth and speed and the ability to come in waves at the other team. Age has something to do with that, not to mention everyone's fear of these recent contracts/players age and ability in a few years.
In 3 years the core will be 30 and we will be surrounding them with a handful of 38 year olds. It's a valid concern.
Claiming average age is misleading:
- There is a 3.5 year difference between the oldest and the youngest team in the league going into next season.
- Last year we were .05 years old than the Bruins. Are you saying that's why we lost? Boston is less than a year older than Chicago. Are you saying that's why they lost? If we worried about average age, Toronto, Los Angeles, and Ottawa should have had better playoff runs, as they are all younger than the teams that defeated them.

In regards to the guys we signed, odds are they don't stay here if they are offered shorter contracts. Part of taking a cut meant that they get length on the deals.
So, let's just say that Shero lets them walk. Who do we replace them with that both fits in our budget AND keeps us competitive? Keep in mind that Kunitz and Dupuis combined for 42 goals, 48 assists, and 90 points in a 48 game season.

In last week's blog posting, we discussed how to prepare your business and dress up your bottom line in anticipation of a sale or merger. This week, we take a step farther down the bumpy road of mergers, acquisitions and divestitures to evaluate the pros and cons of one of the most important documents in the initial phase of "courtship" – the letter of intent. Once a potential owner has indicated its interest in acquiring your company and/or its assets, the next logical step is to execute a letter of intent. The most common purposes of a letter of intent are: • To clarify the key points of a complex transaction for the convenience of the parties • To declare officially that the parties are currently negotiating • To provide safeguards in case a deal collapses during negotiation The legal issue with a letter of intent has to do with whether it is a legally binding document or just an expression of the parties' intent to try to make a deal. If not drafted properly, a letter of intent that was only meant to be an expression of ideas about a possible future agreement can produce costly litigation. In addition, a court may decide that the seemingly nonbinding letter of intent is a wholly or partially legally binding contract. Letters of intent appeal to many business people because there is the perception that the deal is more likely to happen if something is put on paper. A party may erroneously believe that the letter of intent morally commits the other side, while counting on the nonbinding nature of the letter to avoid making its own firm commitment. Over the years, a lot of litigation has occurred specific to the binding effect of letters of intent. The challenge is that a letter of intent can be, at the same time, both binding and nonbinding. And when drafted to resemble an official contract, even letters of intent that specifically say they are not binding might be held by a court to be binding in whole or in part for a variety of reasons. In general, letters of intent are seldom binding on the parties in their entirety. However, certain provisions of the letter of intent are often binding, the most common of which concern the preservation of confidentiality, exclusivity of negotiations, expense allocation and due diligence procedures. During a buyer's due diligence, the parties negotiate the definitive purchase/sales agreement containing the details of the transaction, such as the exact purchase price, price adjustments, payment terms, representations and warranties, closing contingencies and a host of other matters that need to be covered as facts become known through due diligence. Despite the risk of litigation and related uncertainties, letters of intent still often serve a useful purpose and that's why they are so commonly used still today. If you decide to use one for any transaction, however, use it with caution and help from experienced counsel.

Mellon Arena
The conception of the Mellon Arena began on February 4, 1949, when Edgar J. Kaufmann, owner of Kaufmann's Department Store and supporter of the Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera (CLO), approached then Pittsburgh Mayor David L. Lawrence regarding the possibility of the construction of a permanent home for the burgeoning CLO. The CLO—founded in 1946—had, until this point, been an organization presenting laudable musical performances to its Pittsburgh audience in an open-air setting. The University of Pittsburgh's Pitt Stadium served as the primary performance venue. Kaufmann, who had very clearly established himself in Pittsburgh high society as a patron of architecture and as one who was concerned with civic improvement, had been conferring with Frank Lloyd Wright for several years regarding civic improvements; however, the Wright schemes would appear to have been all but abandoned with the CLO proposition. Kaufmann wished to provide Pittsburgh theater-goers with a new performance venue that would allow the continuation of the CLO's tradition of open-air performances while possessing a retractable roof that would permit a performance to continue even in the event of inclement weather. Upon the acceptance of the proposal by Pittsburgh City Council, Kaufmann pledged $500,000.00 of his own money toward the endeavor if funds from the city coffers could be found to match his donation. Mayor Lawrence embraced the Kaufmann proposal as a potentially integral project in the Pittsburgh Renaissance—an enormous effort in the 1940s, 50s, 60s, and early 70s to reduce pollution, clear slums, and provide Pittsburgh with the necessary accoutrements of a modern twentieth century city. With Lawrence supporting the Kaufmann proposal, the Pittsburgh City Council emphatically accepted the endeavor of building a new civic auditorium by a vote of 8 to 1.
As early as July 18, 1949, a site for the proposed arena had been chosen and architects Mitchell & Ritchey of Pittsburgh had been awarded the opportunity to design an appropriate structure to house the CLO. The Mitchell & Ritchey firm would later design many of Pittsburgh's most pronounced and infamous urban renewal projects. The proposed site for the new arena was chosen in the upper-middle class neighborhood of Highland Park at the terminus of Negley Avenue. Although vacant land was available in this area, the city, under Pennsylvania Public Law 991, would be able to exercise its newly authorized powers of eminent domain to secure additional land for parking and auxiliary facilities. The residents of Highland Park strongly disapproved of the site selection for the new arena, citing a severe lack of public transportation to the site and inadequate infrastructure for a major public facility in a primarily residential neighborhood. In an attempt to halt the proceedings, Robert B. King—whose estate would be claimed by the project—stepped before the City Council and offered his estate for use as parkland upon the event of his death should the arena decision be reversed. King was also an influential resource for the Highland Park group as he was the uncle of Richard King Mellon, a major player in Pittsburgh redevelopment projects and heir to the Mellon Financial Corporation; one of the city's most powerful institutions. Influence aside, the City Council voted to move forward with the project. Shortly thereafter, Mayor Lawrence, rescinding an earlier decision, suggested that a new site for the arena be found.
Amidst the tumult over site proposals, on February 6, 1950, James A. Mitchell of Mitchell & Ritchey submitted a patent for a "Flexible Roof Furling System for Amphitheater or the Like". It was this patented design, accepted by the United States Trademark and Patent Office on October 26, 1954, that would be the nascent design from which the Mellon Arena would eventually be refined. The patent demonstrates a large arena with no internal supports over which a cantilever arm would project from one side. From this cantilever arm a retractable, flexible cover would be draped over the arena. The patent cites that the materials from which the roof could potentially be made range from canvas or nylon to rayon or fiber glass cloth although he recommends that fibrous materials be coated in vinyl resins or neoprene. The patent clarifies that the roof is to be attached to an upper and lower annular track constructed of trolley track. The roofing material, mounted on trolley wheels, would then be able to effortlessly glide into any desired position. Mitchell also provides for a rain cap atop the cantilevered mast to function as flashing.
By 1952, the city was still without an appropriate site for the proposed arena. A second site had been chosen in one of the city's largest parks: Schenley Park. Whereas the city owned the land and would not need to resort to the hotly contested tool of eminent domain, the erection of such a facility as a public auditorium purportedly violated the terms of agreement upon which Mary E. Croghan Schenley had donated the parkland in 1889. Almost concurrently with the rejection of the second proposed arena site, the Federal Housing and Home Finance Agency allocated $5,000,000.00 toward the clearance and renewal of the Lower Hill District. The Hill District had been a neighborhood adjacent to Pittsburgh's Downtown that civic leaders had for many years deemed a substandard, dilapidated slum despite the existence of a prolific and vibrant African American community. An additional $100,000,000.00 was secured through private investors for the redevelopment of the Lower Hill District and a plan for up-scale housing, the Crosstown Boulevard, and a parking lot for 2000 cars was proposed. Consideration for an arena space was later added to the proposal and it was upon this site that the Mellon Arena was constructed.
Having secured a site for the proposed arena, Mayor Lawrence approached Edgar Kaufmann in February 1953 regarding the project and secured an additional $500,000.00 of funding to further develop the scheme of a retractable roof. It would appear to have been around this time that Mitchell & Ritchey began to consider a retractable steel dome in opposition to the earlier scheme of a fabric roof. A master plan for the Lower Hill development area was also conceived of by Mitchell & Ritchey although the arena would be the extent to which any of their plans would be realized. The conceptual dome structure would owe much to the earlier fabric roof model; however, the new concept replaced the fabric with 8 steel-ribbed, stainless steel plated leaves. Supported at the crown of the dome by an exterior cantilevered steel frame and at the base by a concrete ring girder measuring 4'-6" in thickness and 16'-20' in width, the leaves—two fixed and dix movable—were placed on an annular track that enabled the arena to be transformed into an outdoor space in approximately 2.5 minutes. The dome, upon completion, was to be 415' wide at the base and 109' in height. As concerned the interior of the space, a major alteration in seating configuration was made from an auditorium style setting to that of an arena style setting. Rather than setting the primary focal point of the space as the stage, a main floor surrounded by bowl configuration seating allowed the space to be programmed for a multi-use function rather than for the exclusive purpose of the CLO. A stage for CLO performances was placed below the bowl seating at the southwestern perimeter of the main floor and was exposed through the use of two hydraulic jacks. When raised, the hydraulic jacks and elevated seating effectively created a proscenium arch which defined the stage and from which draperies and scrims could be hung. The projected cost of the arena was set at $20,000,000.00.
September 1955 marked the approval by the City Council of an overall plan for the Lower Hill development. With high-rise residences designed by I.M. Pei (1964), Mitchell & Ritchey's civic auditorium (1961), a new hall for the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra by Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill (unrealized), and a motor hotel by William Lescaze & Associates (1966), the plan for the Lower Hill was far more than a mere slum clearance project; it had become a plan for Pittsburgh's new center of civic activity. Beginning in November 1956, the first properties of the Lower Hill District were purchased through the city's exercise of eminent domain and the process of demolishing the densely built 95 acres began. In the process of clearing the land for the new civic center, 1,551 families or approximately 8,000 of the city's most under-privileged residents were forced to relocate.
The foundations and ring girder for the Mellon Arena were nearly complete by May 1959 with the steel framing for the movable leaves being erected later that year. By July 13, 1960, the dome of the structure was nearly half complete. Nearly one year later on September 19, 1961, the Mellon Arena, known at that time as the Civic Arena, opened to the public for its first event at a final cost of $22,000,000.00.
The Mellon Arena is sited on elevated, sloping terrain overlooking Pittsburgh's Central Business District. Although circular in plan and possessing several points of ingress and egress, the primary entrance to the building faces onto a landscaped approach from Washington Place. Whereas the arena was meant to be part of an overall civic development, the building was one of the very few projects of that plan to be realized and is sited amidst a vast surface parking lot.
The entirety of the structure consists of a large stainless steel dome covering an arena space that is circular in plan. Supported by a steel structure cantilevering over the dome from the northeast and seated upon a concrete ring girder, the dome measures 415' at its widest point and 109' at its tallest. The dome—originally being retractable—is of a steel rib construction and is clad in INCO Nickel Co. stainless steel. The dome is divided into 8 distinct leaves, 6 of which are equipped with wheels and are set upon an annular track. The leaves, which fold back upon themselves, originally allowed the dome to retract in 2.5 minutes for open air performances or close in the event of inclement weather. The dome weighs approximately 300 tons. The concrete ring girder, upon which the leaves rest, measures 4'-6" in thickness and 16'-20' in width.
The interior of the arena is arranged in a 3 tiered bowl seating configuration splayed around the main event floor. A concourse rings the exterior of the arena and alleviates ambiguity in accessing the seating bowl by providing patrons with a continuous loop by which to circumnavigate the arena.
Technically, the Mellon Arena is composed of building materials considered ordinary for its day. Steel, stainless steel, and reinforced concrete could hardly have been considered innovative in the late 1950s and early 1960s, but it was the way by which Mitchell & Ritchey combined those ordinary materials to create the Mellon Arena's megalithic domed structure that marks technical innovation of paramount importance. At the time of its completion, the Mellon Arena carried the title of largest retractable dome ever executed and still stands as the country's sole example of a free-standing retractable dome. The way by which the dome opens—by folding back upon itself—has influenced other retractable dome arenas, but few attempts have been made to replicate the structure exactly. Whereas more recent incarnations of the retractable dome employ the dome as a roof structure, the Mellon Arena is unique in the fact that its dome essentially is the building.
In order to understand the widespread social implications that the Mellon Arena had upon the City of Pittsburgh, one must first necessarily understand the two elements for which the city is best known: pollution and topography. The environmental stewardship displayed by Pittsburgh during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries is generally understood to have been heinous, but it was during the 1940s—the time at which the concept for the Mellon Arena was developed—that the leadership of the city found it necessary to begin the long overdue process of updating infrastructure, cleaning the air, and clearing blight. The excessive byproducts of industry had left Pittsburgh a city cloaked in darkness; street lamps burned 24 hours per day. Pittsburgh had been known as one of the very few twentieth century cities where the risk of cholera epidemics were real and respiratory diseases topped the list of health complaints. City leaders found it imperative to make drastic environmental changes if the city were to remain economically viable.
The Mellon Arena was Pittsburgh's second attempt of many at urban renewal. After the much lauded Gateway Center Project, which had redeveloped various underutilized and defunct rail yards and warehouse properties at the confluence of the Ohio into a gleaming tower-in-the-park scheme, Mayor David L. Lawrence adopted the stainless steel and open green space concept for the development of a Pittsburgh for the future. Lawrence asserted that, "The city welcomes tomorrow, because yesterday was hard and unlovely. Pittsburgh likes buildings that glisten with stainless steel and aluminum, and it has little time for the niceties of architectural criticism when it compares what it gained with what it lost. The town has no worship of landmarks. Instead, it takes its pleasure in the swing of the headache ball and the crash of falling brick,"(Lorant, 373). However, in clearing the densely urban 95 acres necessary for the construction of the Mellon Arena, civic leaders would face the very real problem of evicting people from their homes. In the case of the Gateway Center Project, the majority of the land reclaimed had been abandoned industrial space; the Lower Hill District was an active residential community.
Perhaps most important in understanding the social implications of the Mellon Arena is understanding topography. The city of Pittsburgh cannot be conceived of as a well integrated whole in the terms that one would conceive of the prototypical gridded city. Pittsburgh exists more as a symbiotic assemblage of distinct neighborhoods separated by peaks and valleys, but connected by a sinuous network of common streets. The most seemingly insignificant connections between these distinct neighborhoods are revealed to be major thoroughfares upon closer examination, the loss of which would result in a disruption of mobility by those living in affected areas. This was the issue of the Mellon Arena.
The Hill District is named precisely for the fact that the area that it occupies is among the highest topographical features within the bounds of the city. It is very literally sited on a hill. As a result, there are few primary thoroughfares connecting the Hill District to other city neighborhoods such as Downtown, Uptown, Soho, and Oakland. Prior to 1955, the Hill District, as one of the city's oldest neighborhoods, had been surprisingly well integrated into neighborhoods to the south and east despite the obvious hardships of topography; even a funicular railway connected the Hill District to the Strip District to the north until the early 20th century. The Lower Hill served as the primary connection between Downtown and points east via Wylie and Centre Avenues. In addition to being a major hub in the connectivity of the overall urban scheme, the Hill District was also the city's largest African American community.
The concept for the Mellon Arena was to provide the city with a new civic center, but the reality of the result—the majority of the civic center concept going unrealized—was the insertion of a void and barrier between Downtown and the Hill District. The Crosstown Boulevard that was part of the plan was intended to relieve traffic stress on the city's Central Business District. While it did alleviate some traffic issues, the roadway—sunken below grade—effectively created a physical and psychological social barrier. The arena itself, in clearing 95 acres, dislodged 1,551 families which accounted for approximately 8,000 individuals. The city paid fair market value for the land it cleared as was required by Pennsylvania Public Law 991 which outlined the concept of eminent domain. The truth of the matter, however, was that the majority of the residents of the Lower Hill rented their homes, and so, saw little to nothing of the money paid for their residences and businesses. Pittsburgh, although known for urban renewal, had built little by way of public housing at the time of the clearance of the Lower Hill. Although the city made a good-faith effort to place displaced residents in equal or better housing accommodations, the majority moved into other already overcrowded neighborhoods.
In what can be attributed as a result of the Mellon Arena project, the Hill District today is characterized not by vacant lots, but by entirely vacant blocks due to poor connectivity to the surrounding city and a lack of basic commercial services. Near the arena, residential development has begun with the construction of suburban-style townhouses, but the majority of viable historic fabric continues to degrade.
The Mellon Arena is a prime manifestation of the ideas circulating during the 1950s and 1960s regarding urban renewal, blight clearance, and civic regeneration. Although these ideas of an urban conglomerate composed of grand towers-in-the-park and expansive open spaces are generally met with a certain amount of contempt in contemporary society, the Mellon Arena, upon completion, was viewed by civic leaders as a manifestation of a modern 20th century Pittsburgh. In a city that had nearly always been recognized for its environmental follies, the Mellon Arena was far more than an event venue or a social barrier or blight clearance or urban renewal or any of the myriad designations it has been given since its inception. The Mellon Arena can most succinctly be identified as gesture of a civic administration looking to secure economic viability for tomorrow.
At the time of its completion, the Mellon Arena was hailed as an engineering marvel. No freestanding retractable steel dome had ever been attempted in America and the Mellon Arena stands as the only example extant today. Widely published in a number of architectural as well as engineering journals and periodicals, the building received great acclaim for both its design and its versatility of use. The arena sits amidst the works of I.M. Pei and William Lescaze, but still manages to garner the majority of attention despite having been designed by a firm seldom acknowledged outside of the City of Pittsburgh. The arena serves as a model upon which a great number of retractable roof stadia have been modeled; one of the more recent and closely linked examples being the Fukuoka Dome in Fukuoka, Japan.
Although regarded as an engineering masterwork, the Mellon Arena has also been regarded as a paramount faux pas of urban renewal. It is difficult to determine if the civic center plan would have been quite as detrimental to the city had it been completed, but as it stands, nearly fifty years later, the arena remains a great point of contention in the community.

RC is alive and kickin' and there was no better barometer than RCX. This year the crowds were larger, hungrier and more excited about RC than in years past. We were stoked to see the full-size Lucas Oil and Traxxas short course trucks in the Associated and Traxxas booths. Team Losi had a full factory Rockstar Suzuki bike on display while several bitchen whips were scattered throughout the show. Dozens of new RC products made their debut at the show, which indicates that RC is moving swiftly in the right direction. There is no better time to be involved with RC and RCX proves that each and every year. If you couldn't make it down to Pomona for RCX, don't worry we've got dozens more videos to upload to keep you in the loop. We'll be featuring coverage of RCX in our June issue of RC Car Action so keep your eyes peeled.
For those who attended RCX or checked out our online coverage we appreciate your involvement with this awesome hobby. We do our best to bring the excitement of RC to you each and every day.

"Greet Rufus, that outstanding Christian"
- Romans 16:13a (God's Word)
Choose life. (Deuteronomy 30:19)
Hey there, and welcome to my online diary.
It's just an aide memoire of whatever I happen to have done lately, be that going on holiday or watching a movie.
Where I've said that I hate something, it's probably because I care about it enough to want better for it.
I am also a Christian, but I think everyone defines that box differently.
Agreement is not required, but friendliness helps. :)

Cary will continue to focus scientific research on the critical environmental problems facing the world.
The ecology of birds is intimately tied to the sounds of other organisms around them.
"We expect 2012 to be the worst year for Lyme disease risk ever."
"This additional capacity will significantly increase our knowledge about what's going on in the Hudson River."
"Catastrophic loss of tree species and a huge taxpayer burden—where's the sense in this?"
Recently, the Cary Institute hosted two graduate courses.
Cary Institute's motto, "the science behind environmental solutions," is motivating a new collaborative venture.
In addition to supporting the work of the Institute, Aldo Leopold Society members receive invitations to special events and unique opportunities to interact with scientists and educators.
In assessing a major drop in nitrate loss from the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, it was revealed that past disturbances, such as logging, must be included.

AUDIO-OLOGY (n): an original, self-produced music group who combines, live hip-hop and rock into one groundbreaking package, featuring Detroit native Chaz Logan and Louisiana-born Zach Goyne; also a treatment and cure for what ails the music industry.
Audio-ology is the resulting musical mash-up, combining both Chaz and Zach's roots in the church, with a love of both hip-hop and rock, a blend of backgrounds that results in the perfect post-Obama melting pot. The two met shortly after Zach arrived in L.A., just three days after Hurricane Katrina. Chaz usually comes up with the beats and music, while Zach writes most of the lyrics and collaborates on the melodies.
For more information, including news on their forthcoming debut EP on Eklektic Entertainment, visit the Audio-ology official site. They can also be followed on Facebook and Twitter.

How to Measure
How to measure for Perfect Fit Pleated Blinds
Download Measuring Instructions for Perfect Fit Blinds PDF
Download Measuring Template for Perfect Fit Blinds PDF
When measuring for Perfect Fit Blinds, you need to open your handle slightly and measure the distance between the handle latch and the face of the frame. The clearance needed is 12mm, if you have less than this then the handle will catch the frame making it difficult to open your window. There are 2 sizes of handle spacers 2mm and 6mm. This is the distance that the handle will be projected out from the window frame allowing space for the Perfect Fit Frame.
First of all you need to undo the two retaining screws on your handle, these maybe under a small sticky pad cover. You will need to partially open the handle to gain access to one of the screws. Once removed just pull the handle away from the window.
Place your spacer over the square bar through the centre hole of the spacer.
Now simply replace the handle and re-fit the retaing screws, your handle will now pass over the Perfect Fit frame with clearance.

Manufacturing Times
Manufacturing Times
We do not sell 'NEXT DAY BLINDS' we know from years of manufacturing experience that a good British quality made to measure blind cannot be made in a few hours and then shipped out. Our manufacturing times are straight forward, depending on the size and complexity of your order we aim to manufacture your blinds in 5-10 working days, this is always dependant on stock availability of fabrics and slats from our U.K. suppliers.
Please allow up to 15 working days for Wooden Blinds, Perfect Fit Wooden Venetian Blinds and Roman Blinds. We are accredited manufacturers and have pride in making it British, quality does take a little longer than 'NEXT DAY DELIVERY' and we will always keep you informed if there are any delays with your order, but this is quite rare and we have many a happy return customer to vouch for that.
Free Delivery on all Blinds throughout mainland the UK*
We are happy to offer you a FREE delivery service to most mainland U.K. destinations on all of our 'Blinds to go' if your order is over £149.00. We use only reputable courier services who will deliver your blinds the next day after dispatch. For orders under this amount we charge only a small fee of £9.99 to cover our costs. *Obviously for those of you who live in the outer parts of mainland U.K. there will be an additional charge, you can find this quite easily when going through our checkout and choosing your shipping options.
Worldwide blind delivery
We have now introduced a shipping calculator at checkout so you can find the cost of shipping of your order before purchase, you do not have to use our shipping methods and are quite welcome to save your basket and ask us to offer your manufactured blinds for collection by your prefered choice of shipping agent. However, we think our rates are very competitive and should you find cheaper then please let us know. Please be aware that we are not liable for damages or missing consignments if you were to use your own shipping methods, although all our blinds are professionally packed in strong double board cardboard boxes.

Mr.Weedz you have very a fine taste in films. How do you rate Double Indemnity?
If, that makes me cry because I realized I wasted my grammar school days. I should have done what Malcolm McDowell did at the end.

text: Allerton House at Hingham is an Alzheimer's and dementia care provider in Hingham, MA 02043. Memory care is most often provided in a separate unit of an assisted living facility or a nursing home, but some communities may specialize solely in caring for residents with memory issues. Levels of care can vary significantly between facilities. One provider may only offer limited assistance to residents, while another may provide comprehensive care for individuals who are in the later stages of dementia. Memory care provides residents with a safe environment that limits wandering and experienced staff who can meet their unique care needs.
