text: Friday, February 17, 2012 Legislation Includes Cap Exceptions Process With Provisions, Extends GPCI Today, the House of Representatives and Senate passed legislation to prevent a 27.4% payment cut to Medicare providers scheduled for March 1 and extend several other Medicare policies important to physical therapists. The measure extends the Geographic Practice Cost Index (GPCI) at the current level for the remainder of the year and includes a 10-month extension of the therapy cap exceptions process that will begin to create a path to a reformed therapy payment system. Physical therapists will continue to use the KX modifier at the $1,880 cap for 2012. However, new provisions have been added to the cap exceptions process. Starting October 1, claims for patients who meet or exceed $3,700 in therapy expenditures will be subject to a manual medical review. The legislation designates that this medical review will be similar to the process used following implementation of the Deficit Reduction Act in 2006. The $3,700 threshold will be applied to a combined physical therapy and speech language pathology cap. A separate $3,700 threshold will be applied to the occupational therapy cap. Also beginning October 1, each request for payment must include the national provider identifier of the physician who reviewed the plan of care. In addition, the therapy cap with exceptions will apply to hospital outpatient departments no later than October 1 until the end of 2012. This provision will sunset at the end of 2012 unless Congress extends it into 2013. APTA will work with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) to determine the agency's plans for implementing this and other provisions contained in the legislation. The bill also calls for the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission to submit recommendations by June 15, 2013, to the House Energy and Commerce Committee, House Ways and Means Committee, and the Senate Finance Committee on ways to reform the payment system to ensure that the benefit is better designed to reflect individual acuity, condition, and therapy needs of the patient. The report will examine private sector initiatives related to outpatient therapy benefits. The committee's measure also directs the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to implement a claims-based data collection strategy to assist in reforming the Medicare payment system for outpatient therapy. The system will be designed to provide for the collection of data on patient function during the course of therapy services in order to better understand patient condition and outcomes. In proposing and implementing such a strategy, HHS will consult with relevant stakeholders. In addition, the General Accountability Office will issue a report by May 1, 2013, to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, the House Ways and Means Committee, and the Senate Finance Committee on the implementation of the manual medical review process. The report is to include data on the number of beneficiaries and claims subjected to the process, the number of reviews conducted, and the outcome of the reviews. The bill will be sent to President Obama for signature. APTA staff will reach out to CMS in the coming weeks to begin a dialogue about implementation of this legislation and will provide further information to membership regarding guidance and timelines for these new provisions. APTA is analyzing this legislation and will provide more resources as they become available. Comments Is physical therapy still combined with speech therapy for the cap? And is OT still the same cap? Posted by James M. Montana, PT, DPT on 2/17/2012 3:14 PM In last evenings Legislative Report it mentioned that the cap would be extended to include Outpatient Hospital Departments. Is this accurate ? Posted by Brett McCormick on 2/17/2012 3:22 PM Amen! Finally they can't keep taking away from the older population that need care the most. Thank you to all PT's who have worked on this bill :) Posted by Renee on 2/17/2012 3:36 PM This is great news! (BTW: James and Brett, your questions are addressed in the second paragraph of the article.) Posted by Steve on 2/17/2012 4:02 PM From 2nd paragraph: "Starting October 1, claims for patients who meet or exceed $3,700 in therapy expenditures will be subject to a manual medical review." Is this an annual threshold? Does it combine expenditures for PT, OT and SLP? Thanks! Posted by Maria on 2/17/2012 4:23 PM Why is the PT and ST cap still combined? Posted by Martha Fiddes on 2/17/2012 4:49 PM Is there a link to the source that talks about the $3700 cap beginning 10/1/2012? I just finished reading the bill from the Library of Congress and it section 3002 relating to the therapy cap has no mention of this $3700 cap. Posted by Leigh on 2/17/2012 5:12 PM So, we've postponed the threatened cut for another year. If memory serves correctly this provision stems from the Balanced Budget Act circa 1991. With each year and increase in Medicare payment the "cut" needed also increases. Will there be the threat of a 30% cut next year? What is being done to finally remove this annual threat? Am I missing something? Posted by Herb on 2/17/2012 8:48 PM Once hospitals fall under the cap will the MPPR reduction be the same as private practices? Posted by Stephanie Engelberg on 2/17/2012 11:23 PM I beleive the KX $$ spent per beneficiary as a limit had already been implemented end of last year as one of the criterias of pre payment reviews. Posted by Cassius on 2/18/2012 11:34 AM Do the new provisions added to the cap exceptions process likely mean fewer Medicare visits for PT? Posted by Wade Meyer -> >JXcBN on 2/19/2012 2:28 PM Does anyone know if hospitals will be subject to the same reimbursement as private clinics in the same geographical area? Posted by Darin McCarthy PT, OCS on 2/20/2012 10:37 AM Why is legislation such as this attatched to payroll tax legislation? Posted by Mary Stout -> =LYaC on 2/20/2012 2:34 PM I have been unemployed for months awaiting this decision to be handed down before employers can safely hire me. Now this safety appears to last less than a year. Guess I cannot plan to have a job more than a few months, even though I'm in the top 20% of my field. This has to be stabilized! Posted by patrick tierney pta on 2/20/2012 7:04 PM it's about time that hospital outpatient departments have to follow the same medicare rules as the rest of us. maybe we as a profession will make patient less dependent on us of have them take responsibility for their health. Posted by robert pt on 2/21/2012 7:29 PM Could you please advise where on the CMS website it references the Cap Excetions process with provision, that indicates that there will be a medcial review after $3700 is reach for pt or ot. Medicare when called indicates that there is nothing in affect for this or listed on there website and can give me no information. Posted by Michelle Justice on 4/18/2012 9:12 AM The legislation requires the manual medical review to begin by October 1. CMS has not yet issued instructions on when or how it intends to implement the this or other provisions contained in the legislation. APTA will post updates via News Now as this information becomes available. Posted by News Now Staff on 4/18/2012 1:55 PM Could someone tell me why the OT cap is separate from the physical therapy and Speech therapy?? Posted by Michelle on 4/10/2014 10:00 PM

Chelsea 2-1 Man City: Guardiola reaction
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola paid tribute to returning duo Vincent Kompany and Fabian Delph after the 2-1 Premier League defeat at Chelsea.
Midfielder Delph made his first appearance for a month, while injury-hit skipper Kompany had not featured since 28 January.
Both put in encouraging displays on a night where Eden Hazard's double eclipsed Sergio Aguero's 27th goal of the season.
Guardiola, whose team remain in fourth spot, said: "Congratulations to Fabian Delph. He showed me how wrong I was not to put him on the field. He never complains.
"Vincent Kompany is so aggressive and it's not easy to come back from injury. I'm so happy for him."
Kompany: We stood up to the challenge
He added on City's top four hopes: "The Premier League is gone now, it will be between Tottenham and Chelsea. So now we want the Champions League places."
The City manager was left with a familiar feeling after a match that City dominated in terms of possession and chances.
He said: "It's an honour to have the amazing players I have. We come here to Stamford Bridge and play the way we have, with huge personality. I'm a lucky guy to manage these guys.
"It's encouraging for the future. I'm optimistic. It's been like this all season but in the boxes we are not good enough. We created enough to score goals. It's our problem. But my players play in one way and that's why I want to be here - to help Man City for years.
"The people who are watching us must be proud of our fans. We did everything."

Rarotonga Cross Island Walk
Posted on
Photo Source: Fleaphotos
If you like to be active on your holidays then Rarotonga has a fantastic selection of outdoor activities. One of the main on-land activities we recommend to guests is the Cross Island walk that takes you from the town (Avarua) side of Rarotonga to the South coast or vice-versa.
Photo Souce: Fleaphotos
The walk takes 2-3 hours depending on your level of fitness, with some parts an easy walk through bush and a few areas of climbing up over tree roots and rocks. With the reward being the awesome views looking across the Island from the 'Needle', which is the highest point on Rarotonga.
To get to the track you can either park at the start point of one end and walk up and back to your car, or you can catch a bus to return you to your car or start point. Some hikers choose to walk from town, starting in Avarua you walk 3km (a bit less than 2 miles) to the Avatiu Valley following the signs to the water intake which marks the start of the walk. From here you follow the path to the left of the houses until you reach the forest and you will see a path fork off to the right. From here it is about a 45min-1 hr walk to the top. At the top you will see a path to the Needle on the right hand side, this is the spot to get the best views.
Photo Source: Fleaphotos
You can then either head back the way you came or continue following the track across the Island to the southern coast and Papua Waterfall. The walk to the waterfall is covered in lush rainforest and features some giant ferns and the Papua stream. Once you reach the waterfall (also known as Wigmore's Waterfall) you can follow the gravel road out to the main Island road, past the Sheraton Hotel ruins.
If you would prefer a guided walk then there are a couple of companies who offer this, with the most famous being Pa's Treks. Pa is a local personality who specialises in traditional medicine and who knows much about Cook Island and Polynesian history and legends.
For more information about the walk ask at our reception or browse through some of the many Rarotonga tourist brochures and maps we have available. We can organise guided tours and assist with bus timetables and pick up areas.

As stated above:
Consumer Report Share your experience with merchants and suppliers, both positive and negative.
Please limit threads to "Praise" or "Problems" with specific vendors and suppliers you have personally experienced. If you want to ask a general question, or you have questions about suppliers and vendors, place those in the Bee Forum. If the thread topic is about company "XYZ", do not post a message saying "I had better service with company "ABC."
Also, please keep your thread title "neutral", so that others may form their own opinions.
As an example: If I had a bad experience with "X Bee Supplier", I would title my thread "My experience with X Bee Supplier" as opposed to "X Bee Supplier is a scam company".
In the event that a particular business owner is also a forum member, I ask that you please keep personal stuff between you and any business owner private. Do not copy and paste emails or private messages- these are private information and not the business of others on the forum. If you are unhappy or dissatisfied with a business, feel free to post complaints, but leave out personal attacks. Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
For example:
If you have had a bad experience with Company XXX, post what the problem was, what the history was, how it was or was not resolved.
rather than:
Calling the business owner or supplier derogatory names or trying to have a verbal stand-off on this public forum.
I have no problems with stating opinions and problems directly related to poor service or business practices, just keep it business and not personal.

Colorado lands lanky Californian with potential to play on line or tight end
According to Rivals.com, Colorado received an oral commitment this week from Aaron Haigler, a 6-foot-7, 250-pound senior at Notre Dame High School in Sherman Oaks, Calif.
Haigler, rated a two-star prospect by the recruiting-based website, told Rivals.com affiliate BuffStampede.com that Colorado coaches are not pegging him for a certain position. Haigler, who is said to have 4.8 speed, could be a tight end or he could grow into an offensive tackle.
"I don't have a preference," Haigler told BuffStampede.com.
According to Rivals.com, Haigler has an offer list that includes Iowa State, San Jose State and Utah State. He apparently impressed CU coaches during a summer camp in Southern California.

Norman Rockwell, one of America's truly great artists, didn't live to see Valve's Portal released. Dying in 1978, he didn't come close. But let's imagine, just for a moment, that he had.
He just might have come up with something like this. Jesse Rubenfeld's painting, called This Was a Triumph, is based on Rockwell's famous "Rosie the Riveter" work from the Second World War, which at the time appeared on the cover of the Saturday Evening Post.
This one? It'll have to settle for the cover of Kotaku.

DreamWorks Animation SKG Inc. says it is licensing its characters to a developer of theme parks in Russia.
The Regions Group of Companies plans to open parks in St. Petersburg, Moscow and the Ural Mountains city of Yekaterinburg in 2015.
DreamWorks said Friday that the parks will be Europe's largest year-round indoor entertainment zones. The zones will be part of larger entertainment complexes, each featuring a mixed-use movie and concert hall, a movie theater, a hotel and a retail center.
Some franchises that are to be featured at the parks include "Shrek," "Madagascar," "How to Train Your Dragon" and "Kung Fu Panda," as well as upcoming films such as "Turbo," a movie set to debut in July about a snail that gets super speedy powers.
DreamWorks shares were up 54 cents, or 3.2 percent, at $17.48 in afternoon trading on Wall Street Friday.

Watching a group of Segways make their way quietly over a hill and onto the fairway is like watching a science-fiction movie -- if the cast was made up of nattily dressed adults cruising around with bags of clubs next to them.
With the Presidents Cup coming to San Francisco, it's a good time to check in on the Silicon Valley technology that's made its way onto the golf course.
U.S. & World
Like the Segway. Why drive a cart, or, heaven forbid, walk, when you can roll with style and futuristic class in a Segway? I can't even remember what they were invented to do, but if it was to replace the golf cart, it was a good idea. Strap your clubs in, lean ever so slightly towards your last shot, and you're on your way.
Could the Segway even actually take strokes off your game? I was skeptical until I asked local golfer Mark Kennedy, who we found scooting around the San Jose Municipal Golf Course on a Segway. He says it helps upstairs.
"I mean, it definitely takes your mind off your game," Kennedy said." if you hit a poor shot, you can go, 'Well, now I get to ride my Segway, and forget the shot.'"
Hard to argue with that.
Where it's easier to see an improvement is just off the course, with the Track Man. This computer/Doppler-radar hybrid tracks your shots off the practice tee, and plots enough numbers and graphs on the screen to leave the uninitiated thinking that someone somewhere just launched a missile attack.
Remember the video game "Missile Command?" It's kind of like that. Only Track Man can also tell you which club is best for you, and how you should adjust your swing.
It may be awhile before the truly traditional golfer buys in to all this technology. But if your goal is a better, more efficient golf game (and really, who doesn't want that?), get onboard with the new tools. It's what the pros use, and there's really no reason the rest of us shouldn't take advantage of it, too.

Nurse Practitioners and Primary Care
One of the big problems in the U.S. health-care system is the shortage of primary-care physicians, especially in rural areas. And the shortages may worsen as more patients seek care under the Affordable Care Act.
One candidate to help fill that shortage: nurse practitioners.
Nurse practitioners are trained to perform clinical care, including ordering lab work and X-rays, and are especially useful in assisting patients with chronic conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure. About a third of states allow nurse practitioners to practice without the supervision of a physician, freeing up doctors to do more.
Have you received medical care from nurse practitioners, and do you/would you have confidence in them? Vote and enter your comments, which may be excerpted in a coming Wall Street Journal special report.

After one of the longest winters that I can remember, it felt quite exciting to finally put all my winter gear in storage and switch to easy tee shirts and jersey dresses. There was, however, one downside – all the cream, cheese and butter-laden recipes I'd been posting to help you brave the elements, had left a couple of unwanted inches around my waist . Time to go easy on the béchamel, pasta and desserts for a week or so!
Today, I am treating myself to a salad made with red radicchio (probably my favorite leafy vegetable). and the exotic addition of Medjool dates to temper its slight bitterness. Let me know what you think!
- 2 heads red radicchio
- 3 medium red onions
- about 12 juicy dates
- about 1/2 cup parmigiano or grana cheese shavings (or more to taste)
- 3 to 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp fresh thyme
- salt and pepper to taste
Peel the onions and slice them into quarters or eights depending on the size.
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a skillet on low heat (prefer a heavy or non-stick skillet); add onions and thyme, and cook for 10 minutes covered, stirring often. Sprinkle with the brown sugar and cook, stirring until caramelized. Add the balsamic, and cook covered for 15 more minutes, still stirring frequently to prevent the onions from sticking.
In the meantime, cut the washed and dried radicchio into strips and arrange them into individual bowls. Add the warm, caramelized onions, the cheese shavings and the pitted, coarsely chopped dates.
Deglaze the pan with the remaining 1 or 2 tbsp oil and 2 tbsp water, pour onto the salad (filtering first if needed), and serve!

What is the difference between 20mm and 40mm clear film?
20 mm - Strong, perfectly invisible protection for lights and lenses. Keep your
lights looking new for years and years.No more yellow, hazy lights from sand
blasting and rocks chips. Very flexible and pliable for very rounded/curved
light applications.
Adhesive backed for easy and very forgiving application to any surface. Great
heat dissipation properties for those high heat/intensity lighting. Handles up
to 300-degree temps.
40 mm - Our thickest and strongest film yet. 1/16th thick! Perfectly clear,
invisible protection for lights and lenses. Keep your lights looking new for
years and years. No more yellow, hazy lights from sand blasting and rocks chips.
Adhesive backed for easy and very forgiving application to any surface.
Excellent protection for flat and lower temperature lenses. Handles up to
300-degree temps.
Can the film be removed without damage?
Lamin-x film can be easily removed without damage to the light or original
paint. Upon initial application, the film can be pulled back up and reapplied
numerous times if not installed correctly. The film and adhesive is forgiving
enough for this. Once the film is settled (appx 48-72 hours) the product is not
considered to be reusable. Upon removal warm the film and lift off slowly.
Are your colored films legal on headlights for street use?
Our colored films may not be legal for street use on primary lighting. An
off-road disclosure is recommended. Please check your state or local laws before
application. Installation of colored Lamin-x Films on your primary lights is
done so at your own peril. None of our films produce a blue or red light when
I just installed the film on my lights. There are still some tiny bubbles and
milkiness underneath and creases/ripples on top of the film. What should I do?
Once the film settles any small bubbles/milkiness or application creases will
disappear. Lamin-x is a breathable PVC vinyl film. Tiny air pockets will
evaporate. The creases/ripples caused by application cards or your finger will
smooth out once settled and warmed.
What's the difference between your film and your competitors?
Numerous things make our product more appealing than others, such as:
- Our films are impact resistant and a softened PVC vinyl film. Most competitor
films are not impact resistant and have a top-coated urethane film.
- Installation errors can be corrected and repaired upon installation.
- Lamin-x is breathable for quicker curing and allows for newly applied paint to
fully cure.
- Resists yellowing with minor yearly maintenance.
- Multiple colors and thicknesses available for multiple uses.
- Competitors only have clear films. No colors available.

Forrester Total Economic Impact Study of Virtualized Storage
Visits (13307)
Earlier this week, Jon Erickson from Forrester Reserch, and Chris Saul from IBM, co-presented a webcast on the economic impact of using SAN Volume Controller for storage virtualization. The event was co-sponsored by IBM, InformationWeek, and UBM TechWeb, The Global Leader in Business Technology Media, a Division of UBM LLC. Jon spoke first, covering the cost savings and financial benefits of using SAN Volume Controller in your environment. His analysis shows a payback period of only 18 months!
Chris Saul (IBM) then covered the latest features introduced last June for SAN Volume Controller v6.4 release. Many of these features are available on older hardware models of SAN Volume Controller. One of the most exciting features is Real-time Compression.
If you missed the webcast, you can listen to the [Replay]. There is also a [whitepaper] if you prefer that format.
The Real-time Compression benefits can vary by the type of data compressed. Some data compresses only 20% savings. Other data compresses 80% or more. The best way to find out how much Compression would benefit your environment is to run the [IBM Comprestimator Tool] that runs against your own data!
If you are constantly battling out-of-space conditions, and would like to make extra room on your existing storage devices, your dreams have come true!

Critter - Wind-up Toys
Product Information
|Wind-up Toys
|24 cm x 6.5 cm x 3 cm / 9.5 in x 2.5 in x 1.1 in
Product Description
Design by Chico Bicalho
Here are some tips to enjoy your wired four-legged friend and get the most fun out of its fidgety existence. Critter is like an old Jeep with the mind of a mosquito; it needs occasional maintenance, tweaking and sometimes a drop of oil. Don't worry; it's all part of the fun. To wind up Critter, hold it in one hand, keeping the counterweight from spinning, while turning the key with the other hand.
Critter works best when all four booties touch the ground approximately 4" (10 cm) left to right, and 4 1/2" (11.5 cm) front to rear. The legs may be adjusted by gently bending the wire near the body. If it falls over too often, bend the legs slightly apart until Critter becomes steadier. If it's not active enough, adjust the legs closer together.
Every once in a while, a bit of spray lubricant will keep the engine revving like crazy. Critter's favorite performing surfaces are marble tables or thin carpets; essentially any level surface will do. What it really loves is to tap dance on a pool table with other Critters. Two or more Critters together make a Critter-jitter party.
Colors of feet and wind-up key may vary.

Tia23 needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 312 designs submitted by 47 freelance designers.
Bella Women's Center
We are a new medical women's center trying to establish our identity in the community. We serve patients through a medical director and nursing staff and are offering a free clinic with ultrasound services, STI testing, and options information. We are looking for a logo that is contemporary, medical, and feminine.
Women 18 to 30 years of age who are trying to make decisions about an unplanned pregnancy.
We need a logo that will draw our target range of women 18 - 30 and that is contemporary, medical and feminine. We want to use the logo on our business cards, sign, advertisements, and letterhead. We are aiming for a medical spa look. Maybe do something interesting with the first B? Also, another Center near us has hot pink and green, so we need to stay away from those colors. They are also using the red cross "cross" in pink (which is also an image for a positive pregnancy test). We need to be different. :)

Check that the SD card is not mounted via USB. If it is, the game cannot be installed on the SD card. Alternatively, try installing the game on your phone memory instead of a memory / SD card. This can be done by first unmounting or removing the SD card, then installing the game, and then remounting or inserting the card back. Clearing Google Play's "Cache" and "Data" (Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Market) has also been known to help.
If you are having the same problem when updating the game, try to find enough space to update the game on the phone memory. Additionally, make sure that you have a strong wireless connection.

Movie Clip Shows Whirlwinds Carrying Dust on Mars
Clips consisting of a few frames of two different dust devils are available online at http://www.nasa.gov/vision/universe/solarsystem/mer_main.html and http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov. These were taken on April 15 and April 18, and capture more movement as seen from the surface than any previous imaging of martian dust devils.
"This is the best look we've ever gotten of the wind effects on the martian surface as they are happening," said Dr. Mark Lemmon, a rover team member and atmospheric scientist at Texas A&M University, College Station.
Spirit, operated from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., has been using its navigation camera to routinely check for dust devils. It began seeing dust devils last month in individual frames from the camera. Lemmon said, "We're hoping to learn about how dust is kicked up into the atmosphere and how the wind is interacting with the surface. It's exciting that we now have a systematic way of capturing dust devils in movies rather than isolated still images."
Spirit and its twin, Opportunity, successfully completed three-month primary missions in April, 2004, and have been exploring at increasing distances from their landing sites since then.
JPL, a division of the California Institute of Technology in
Pasadena, manages NASA's Mars Exploration Rover project for

RICHMOND, Va. – A valuable member of the Virginia Commonwealth University men's basketball program earned something he's been working towards for nearly 25 years.
Assistant Coach Mike Jones, who has been with the Rams for the past two seasons, was named the new Head Coach at Radford University on Tuesday afternoon.
"Radford just hired a tremendous basketball coach and more importantly an unbelievable person," Head Coach Shaka Smart said. "Over the past two seasons, I've had the great fortune of working with Mike and I can say with no hesitation that there isn't an aspect of coaching where he doesn't excel. Mike and his staff will do great things at Radford."
Jones, who was the architect of VCU's defense during his tenure, helped guide the Rams to a school-record 55 wins over the past two years, including the magical run to the Final Four this past March.
"I'm very humbled by this opportunity and am extremely grateful for these past two years here at VCU," Jones said. "My family and I were welcomed with open arms by the entire VCU athletic department and the incredible Ram fans and I'll forever be appreciative for that. The relationships that myself and my family built over the past two years is something that I'll always cherish."
During his time with the Black & Gold, Jones saw his defensive efforts break the school record for steals in back-to-back years, posting a total of 646 thefts during his two seasons. It was the first time in school history that VCU had tallied consecutive seasons of 300 or more steals.
He also provided guidance for the VCU frontcourt, which saw Larry Sanders get drafted 15th overall by the Milwaukee Bucks last year and Jamie Skeen becoming a strong candidate for the NBA Draft this season.
On the recruiting trail, Jones proved to be a huge asset, helping the Rams secure the top recruiting classes in the CAA in both 2010 and 2011.
Prior to coming to VCU, Jones spent time as an assistant at Howard University, Furman University, the University of Richmond, West Virginia University and Georgia.
Coach Smart, his staff and the entire VCU athletics family would like to wish Coach Jones and his family all the best in their new endeavors.

It looks like the pacman on the 0.6-base CD is broken; it's linked against a non-existant libz.so.1. Also, I don't see a pacman.static anywhere on the CD that was mentioned somewhere on these forms.
Why hasn't this been fixed? Or why hasn't this been mentioned somewhere on the webpage? It seems wrong that a stable release should be completely broken and be a cause of wasted time and CDRs.
-- John
I can understand your frustration - however the fact that it is not mentioned anywhere (and I have never heard of this problem) says to me that your ISO image or even burned CD is corrupt.
Try redownloading it and perhaps checksumming it.
The 0.7 ISO is fully working (IMHO), so I'd do that.
Try 0.7 beta....
Nobody has mentioned this problem before, and I can't understand how it could suddenly just break for no reason..... its surprising what happens though.
People have had less trouble with 0.7 beta than 0.6 in other regards though.
Well, it HAS been mentioned, but only once on the forum... I also assumed at first that it was my CD, but someone else ran into it: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … light=libz
But anyhoo, just downloaded the 0.7 beta and am going to go give that a try!
-- John
Good Luck! Hope it works for you!
good luck from europe also, it might help,
arch + gentoo + initng + python = enlisy
Ahhhhh, that's the stuff. 0.7 is delicious.
Thanks guys!
-- John
No, 0.6 IS broken for everyone, not just you ( as I found out last night ) AN dunfortunately, that solution doesn't work that you linked to.
It worked fine for me when I installed off of it but whatever. To get 0.7 you need to go to http://www.archlinux.org/download.php, pick one of the mirrors and navigate to 0.7/iso/i686.
I don't know if there's a torrent link anywhere.
It worked fine for me when I installed off of it but whatever. To get 0.7 you need to go to http://www.archlinux.org/download.php, pick one of the mirrors and navigate to 0.7/iso/i686.
I don't know if there's a torrent link anywhere.
How long ago did you try to install this 0.6? These are posts from yesterday and today, and I also tried installing from 0.6 yesterday.
BTW, I am hopfuling someone can submitt Arch to the linux mirror project where htey store torrents for all distros
I don't know a week or two ago - but the 0.6 cd should be the same. The md5sum for my iso is 67fc97e08adf467428c8d3edf38adc72 which matches the arch site. I assume you're talking about the 'base' cd as the op was.
The link to the other thread appears to refer to an ftp install which I didn't do, I just installed it off of CD, set it up and used pacman to update it.
The link you sent looks pretty neat, I don't know if the boss wants to widely mirror the beta or not. I think that everything should have a torrent available these days.
From what I gather, it looks like the problem is the the 0.6-base ISO and not the full 0.6 ISO.
-- John
0.6 should not have been touched since it was released, so if this is a problem, everyone would have encountered it. i installed 0.6 ages ago.
as far as i know, pacman has always been compiled statically, which is why it has no dependencies. frankly, i do not understand this problem at all.
The problem is that now pacman isn't compiled statically.
I have discovered that all of mans unhappiness derives from only one source, not being able to sit quietly in a room
- Blaise Pascal
The 0.6 (base and full) ISO will only break for FTP installs. CD-based installs will still work fine.
Use 0.7-beta2 or the disk images to do an FTP install.
Note: I've also managed to break modprobe in 0.7-beta2, but this won't affect most of you, and insmod still works. The problem is fixed in CVS for 0.7-final, and the fixed disk images are up on FTP now.
I got the same error trying to install Arch 0.7b1. The solution is somewhere on Wiki:
- find the executable pacman
- in the same directory there should be an executable called "pacman.static".
- rename pacman to something else (e.g.: pacman.dynam)
- cp pacman.static pacman
Worked for me!
PS: I don't know if this fix only works for 0.7b1 or if it's a "platform" fix, I've only used 0.7b1.

Dugout chatter
"When I'm starting, it gives me a chance to get prepared better. Of course everybody wants a chance to get back in the starting rotation.�
— Pitcher Taylor Buchholz on the possibility he'll replace the injured Rodrigo Lopez in the starting rotation.
"Command has been as issue in the past, but he's looked good this spring. He's got some breaking stuff that can be effective. Like a lot of left-handers, he tops out in the high 80s and low 90s. But this is the best I have seen him.�
— Manager Clint Hurdle on Dodgers starter Mark Hendrickson, who starts in the place of the injured Jason Schmidt.
Numbers of note
Rockies starters have gone at least five innings in 13 of the first 15 games.

It's funny that there's been so much attention paid to that number over the last couple of weeks as Derek Jeter closed in on and finally passed Lou Gehrig to become the man with the most hits while wearing a Yankee uniform. If Jeter has a defining characteristic as a player it's that he's never been someone whose greatness has been defined by statistics. When fathers tells sons about him, it's about the flip against Oakland or the home run on November 1, 2001 or the breakneck dive into the stands against the Red Sox on just another July night.
Baseball may be a game dominated by iconic numbers, but Jeter has been elevated to another level by iconic moments. That's why this entire chase for Gehrig has felt a bit contrived, as if the Yankees were trying to find some statistical way to say "Hey, this guy's great!" A totally unnecessary gesture that misunderstands something crucial about Jeter, perhaps, but that doesn't mean attempts to totally pooh-pooh the moment have any currency.
There have been those that say that Jeter passing Gehrig is meaningless because he's had more at-bats than Gehrig and because Gehrig was a superior offensive player. Others have claimed that the record has no weight because no one knew how many Gehrig hits had the way every baseball fan can rattle off Hank Aaron's career home run total, Joe DiMaggio's hit streak or Bob Gibson's ERA in 1968. And, finally, there's the idea that who cares how many hits Jeter has when he's not as good as Gehrig, DiMaggio, Babe Ruth and other Yankees.
None of that means a thing, because none of them deal with the simple fact of what having the most hits as a Yankee means. It means he's got more hits than all of those guys and everyone else that ever wore a pair of pinstripes. Whatever qualifications you want to make -- Gehrig had ALS, Mantle tore up his knees, DiMaggio went to war -- don't change the fact that Jeter has simply come to work, stroked hit after hit and come back the next day to do it again for the last 15 years.
That's all it means, and that's not nothing. It's worthy of being celebrated, if not lionized, even if it is only a minute part of what makes Jeter a special player.

A subpar year in 2004 and a slow start in 2005 are now jogging memories of the critical importance of wealth preservation. But here's a radical thought: With the threat of terror and multi-dip recessions, one of the finest ways to preserve your capital over the long term is to keep investing it into stocks. Yes, stocks.
Value stocks, that is.
For an explanation of why, let's travel back to 1984, when Berkshire Hathaway Chairman Warren Buffett gave his classic speech at Columbia University titled "The Superinvestors of Graham-and-Doddsville." In it, he extolled the virtues of Benjamin Graham's value approach to investing and was unyielding and clear: You can beat the market.
To prove his point, he cited the work of the four young employees at Mr. Graham's firm in the mid-1950s. Over the ensuing decades, using his teachings, they'd gone on to thrash the market's average return, through bear and bull markets. They'd done the equivalent of purchasing unclaimed diamonds at wholesale and then selling them three times higher at retail.
The result of it all to this day has been a delivery to their shareholders of untold millions of dollars. Consider, for example, that Donald and Mildred Othmer invested $50,000 with Warren Buffett in the 1960s and watched it grow into a $750 million estate over the next 30 years. Those rewards were driven by a curious and creative mind applying the basic precepts of value investing.
What makes for a great value play?
Aspiring to add to this great tradition, in August 2004 The Motley Fool launched Inside Value, our newsletter and online advisory network for value investors. The service features independent and cooperative research on some of the most unloved yet undervalued stocks in the world. These are special-situation stocks, the sort that brokers gruffly dismiss as "dead money." They're the stocks of companies emerging from bankruptcy, or transitioning into new management, or showcasing a tattered reputation, or -- in the dream scenario -- all of the above.
You can take a free 30-day trial with no obligation to subscribe to what I promise is a truly wonderful service.
Our expert team, led by master value analyst Philip Durell, scours the markets for promising companies priced with a margin of safety for investors. Indeed, our team of analysts has one simple goal: to patiently exploit that distance between a company's intrinsic value and its stock price for the benefit of our members.
For examples of this, think back to IBM
We've all seen what's happened to MCI
The great value plays emerge just when everyone stops caring or believes the cause is lost, when the brand name is tarnished, management gets booted, the stock trades to new lows, and the enterprise is left for dead. That's when, having done their due diligence, the great value investors tiptoe in, snap up shares, sit back, and wait for something good to happen. It's precisely what Warren Buffett did back in the late 1970s, buying up GEICO beginning at $2 per share when many thought the firm would collapse. GEICO was the quintessential value play, with a wide margin of safety. It stands as arguably the finest investment in Buffett's masterful career. Its greatness was apparent only to deep value investors.
Leading the march for value
As I said, leading our team is all-star analyst Philip Durell, aka TMFAdmiral from The Motley Fool community. Philip was the winner of the 2003 Feste Award, given to the most valued contributor to The Motley Fool as voted by our tens of thousands of community members.
Before the launch of Inside Value, he was writing for Fool.com and shining as a top assistant in my own newsletter, Motley Fool Hidden Gems, breaking down the financial statements and contributing sophisticated valuation work on promising value investments such as Fresh Del Monte and Alderwoods. Along with Philip, I think both of these Hidden Gems will perform very well over the next three to four years; I highly recommend them to you.
In each issue of Inside Value, you'll find thorough research, sound logic, and a pair of very compelling stocks. Some of the latest picks include a boring company that simply makes doors. Since being recommended three months ago, it has appreciated 35% on the news that it has agreed to be taken over. This is the kind of company everybody loves to hate, but they're being offered at prices right now that value investors can come to love.
You can see all of Philip's recommendations by taking a free trial of Inside Value. And I want this to be very clear. You can view the recommendations, enjoy the service, and then cancel within 30 days without paying us a penny.
Inside Value's unending goal is to find unfairly maligned companies and stocks at prices that can help you beat the market handily. I've been extremely proud to work with Philip in Hidden Gems, and he brings all his energy, enthusiasm, and exquisite analytical abilities to bear in every issue of Inside Value.
Plumbing the depths for profit
I don't want to make value investing seem simple. It isn't. It demands curiosity and a strict adherence to the principles of valuation. However, if market-beating value investing sounds impossible to you, that's not the case, either. Great firms such as Tweedy Browne, the Royce Funds, Baupost Capital, the Weitz Funds, and the Clipper Fund have been practicing it successfully for many, many years.
They have succeeded because our stock market is still crowded with Wall Street brokers scalping commissions, mutual fund managers focused on their fees, and individual investors obsessed with daily stock price movements. Their short-term passions create plenty of undervalued stocks for those of us willing to become long-term owners.
The value investing philosophy can best be contrasted with investments in early-stage, rapid-growth companies. Picture venture capitalists searching universities and major urban areas for bright entrepreneurs with everything on their side: youth, enthusiasm, an innovative spirit, and the tendency to dream.
Some of the venture capitalists that funded the personal computer, semiconductor, wireless, and biotechnology industries at their outset did extremely well. But early investors in companies such as Microsoft or Intel, IBM or Apple, Cisco, or AMD, or even visionaries such as my brother David, who invested in AOL and eBay, can hardly be called value investors. They fixated their eyes heavenward on the sun, moon, and stars and took their chances on a diverse collection of rockets.
The opposite of these stargazing astronomers of commerce are the marine captains and deep-sea divers of value investing. They plumb the undiscovered depths for fallen treasure in dark and troubled waters. The greatest value investments are not out sunning in full view on the beach, not floating in a red balloon overhead, not soaring to the moon. They're buried deep in the slime and muck, under seaweed and rocks, out of view.
They're old-line manufacturing firms when the market is in love with and paying too much for technology stocks. They're Internet turnarounds with loads of cash on the balance sheet just when everyone finally agrees Internet stocks are a disaster. They're scandal-ridden, out-of-favor, disregarded, or recently disgraced companies with the potential to turn around in stunning fashion.
In Inside Value, Philip Durell is your deep-sea captain. (Incidentally, he has served as a master mariner in the Merchant Marine.) He's your turnaround specialist, having spent much of his professional career turning around companies as a senior executive. He is your guide to finding those great companies out there -- no matter where they are -- poised to outperform but available sometimes for pennies on the dollar.
Isn't it time you stopped running with the pack, buying into companies that you may not understand simply because they're going up... only to watch them crash down below your purchase price because you had no margin of safety?
I guarantee that Philip will offer you a different way to invest. Not only will he hand you great selections from month to month, but also he'll give you an education in investing that's unparalleled. He's already overseeing a burgeoning community of engaged, bright investors ready to discuss each recommendation and answer your investment questions.
Save your portfolio from the market forces huffing and puffing at your door. Inside Value offers you the bricks and mortar to secure your investing strategy and help you beat the market.

The Accounting Historians Journal Vol. 14, No. 1 Spring 1987
Richard Vangermeersch UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND
Abstract: Knowledge of accounting history can be a great aid in solving accounting problems of today and tomorrow. One example of this is the use of a cost diagram of Church and Renold and the writings of Church to solve the problem of accounting for robots.
The purposes of this research note are the presentation of a diagram of an accounting system for a highly capital intensive firm and the illustration of the relationship that system has for the accounting for robots. This diagram was found in October, 1984 in the substantial archives of Renold Chains Limited in Wythenshawe (near Manchester) England, while I was conduct-ing a sabbatical research project on Alexander Hamilton Church. This research project is a follow-up on work I have been doing on the redesigning of cost accounting for companies using robots.1
Church was an electrical engineer who became quite active in cost accounting at the turn of the 20th Century. He went from a two-year assignment with B. & S. Massey in Manchester to an assignment with Hans Renold from 1900 to 1905 [Urwick and Wolf, 1984, p. 116]. Church later resettled in the United States and wrote and practiced extensively in management, accounting, and industrial engineering until his death in 1936 [pp. 115-7]. Hans Renold, like Church, was chosen by Urwick as one of the first 70 pioneers of management [pp. 58-60]. Renold was also an engineer who was, as a disciple of F.W. Taylor, in the forefront of the scientific management movement in Great Britain. Renold and Church's system was considered to be the foundation of modern scientific costing in Great Britain [pp. 58-9].
Only the first half of the diagram is shown in Figure 1, as the second half dealt with accounting for administrative and dis-
1The specifics of the Schwarzbach and Vangermeersch machine labor approach has been published in the two articles referenced at the end of this research note. Rather than showing and discussing this system again, I have concentrated on the historical backdrop of this system.

Lowes keen on Bulls job
Former Bradford Bulls & Great Britian hooker James Lowes has thrown his hat into the ring for the coaching vacancy at Odsal.
The relegation-threatened Bulls have begun the search for a successor to Francis Cummins after he and assistant coach Lee St Hilaire were sacked on Monday.
Club captain Matt Diskin has been handed the reins on a temporary basis ahead of Friday's home game against Hull KR but is not expected to be a contender for the job.
Former Bulls coach Brian Noble, out of work since being sacked by Salford in April, has been linked with the vacancy and Lowes, who is on a rolling contract as head coach of rugby union side Leeds Carnegie, admits he is interested in the job.
"I'd like to at least sit down and talk with (owner) Marc Green to hear his plans," Lowes told the Bradford Telegraph & Argus. "That would be the first step and it would be nice to meet with the bloke."
Lowes, 44, who was briefly head coach of Warrington in 2008-09, applied for the Bradford job when Australian Mick Potter was appointed as the successor to Steve McNamara ahead of the 2011 season.
"I didn't even get a reply to my application, which was very disappointing and left a sour taste," he said. "But it's obviously a job I'd love to do whether it's now or in the future. It's Bradford Bulls - it's my club."
Lowes was at the heart of Bradford's success at the start of Super League when they were crowned champions four times in nine years and twice won the Challenge Cup.
John Kear, who famously kept Wakefield in Super League in 2006 and is currently coaching Batley on a part-time basis, and former Bradford player and current Dewsbury coach Glenn Morrison are also possible candidates.
Bradford say they will take their time to appoint a successor to Cummins, who paid the price for the clubs' failure to pull away from the relegation zone in the First Utility Super League.
The Bulls are in a seemingly hopeless position, eight points adrift of Wakefield with 11 fixtures left of the regular season after failing in their bid to have their points deduction for going into administration overturned on appeal.
"We don't want to make any mistakes," Bradford chief executive Robbie Hunter-Paul said. "If we go in all guns blazing, then we can come unstuck. It's important we get the right person.
"We don't want to play the coaching merry-go-round. We know we haven't got a lot of time but we're not going to rush into it.
"Mathematically we're not out of it yet. Our main objective is to try and do as well as possible and to put as much pressure on those teams sitting above us."

This Dog Training eBook primarily focuses on training and training workouts in a step-by-step method. It offers fewer concepts and approach, and rather provides more real training methods with dog training suggestions. The most famous existing method of training is a technique of positive support. The actions is enhanced using food, kindness or applauding. This strategy is great for training puppies.
The fact is that you can not raise a dog without negative responses. Nature is full of negative reinforcement, and parental canines use that to train their young in the wild. Because it is effective and it is how pups learn, they do it.

Big Gains for U.S. Oil; Will Fed Drain Tank?
The U.S. last year posted the biggest increase in oil production in the world and largest increase in U.S. history. But is there a shadow in the form of a central bank looming oil prices? Heard on the Street editor Liam Denning reports.

From radon hazards to bicycle transportation, from eco-roofs to social network theory, the work of 250 students will be on display Wednesday, May 8 at Portland State University's first-ever Campus-Wide Student Research Symposium.
The event will run from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Smith Memorial Student Union. Undergraduate and graduate students of all disciplines will give presentations and present posters of their work.
The University historically has held smaller research displays from individual schools and departments, but this will be the first time it has included the entire campus.
"We're building a research culture at Portland State, and we want to highlight what goes on here. This will give students across the University – from the humanities to science and engineering, undergraduates and graduates – an opportunity to present their research. It's an important part of their development: to present to the public and to their peers," said Margaret Everett, PSU's associate vice provost and dean of graduate studies.
The main area of activity will be the ballroom on the third floor of Smith Memorial Student Union. It will include poster displays from 121 students. The posters will be shown all day, and the students who created them will be available to answer questions from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Another 130 students will give oral presentations throughout the day in other rooms at Smith.
Everett said the symposium will be an annual event.
The symposium is sponsored by PSU's Office of Graduate Studies, Research and Sponsored Projects, University Honors Program, Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation, McNairs Scholar Program, and Sigma Xi.

This article was reported by Edge on the Net.
Edge on the Net reported on a free screening of the PBS documentary "Endgame: AIDS in Black America," in Boston on Valentine's Day, February 14. The viewing is sponsored by a partnership among AIDS Action, Fenway Health, and Harvard University Center for AIDS Research. The film will play from noon to 4:00 p.m. at the AIDS Action Committee office, 75 Amory Street, Boston. It is open to the public but the committee requests confirmation from interested attendees.
Recent CDC statistics on the period between 2006 and 2010 demonstrated a 48-percent increase in new HIV incidences among black gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men ages 13–29. AIDS advocacy groups urge targeted campaigns to reduce this heavy burden on the African-American community. "African Americans and other black populations are disproportionately impacted by HIV and AIDS. That was the case at the start of the AIDS epidemic and that disparity has only deepened with time," said Rebecca Haag, CEO of AIDS Action Committee. "We need to keep talking about the issue, and to keep bringing attention and resources to it."
According to AIDS Action, in conjunction with their partners, their efforts to target populations most vulnerable to HIV infection realized a 52-percent reduction in new HIV diagnoses in Massachusetts. This statistic would mean that 6,300 people who otherwise might have been infected did not get HIV, resulting in a savings of more than $2.4 billion in HIV-related healthcare costs.
AIDS Action provides education, outreach, and prevention services to black men and women vulnerable to HIV in Massachusetts, as well as one in six HIV-positive people living in the state. To confirm attendance to the film screening, contact Keturah Blalock at firstname.lastname@example.com or (617) 450–1510.
