The Linkstation Community Forum / Announcements / Status of Development
because of the following 2 polls development has been focused on the LS2:
- The Linkstation Community Forum / Polls / Where would you like more Openlink Development?
- The Linkstation Community Forum / Polls / Where would you like more general development (Kernel 2.6, avr_evtd)?
Obviously there are many LS2 users out there or at least they are the more frustrated ones as there was good development going on for the ppc boxes.
lb_worm started by creating a Freelink-image for the LS2
Hardware Hacks for the LS2
It was a good idea to buy the bricked LS2 via ebay. Kuroguy was able to fix it and could begin to look at enabling the serial port and designing a cable for the JTAG Port. The serial port worked quite fast. It turned out that kuroguy`s JTAG cable for the LS2 worked, there was a patch for HairyDairyMaid needed. LinuxNotIncluded, who already surprised us all with his good UBoot Ports for the Linkstations and his patch for the 18.104.22.168 kernel to make it universal, created this patch and it is working.
Because the /dev/firmimg.bin of the LS2 had a different format as the firmimg.bin from the ppc-boxes, it was not possible for mindbender to create custom versions of it. Now that we have JTAG it is possible to look at porting UBoot to the LS2 and this would allow to use the normal ppc-firmimg.bin format.
The work kuroguy & LNI did is groundbreaking for the LS2.
Currently mindbender is working on a ramdisk created via buildroot and based on uClibc to save space and to cram more stuff inside EM Mode. with UBoot, the 22.214.171.124 kernel and the new ramdisk it will be possible to:
- Boot to EM Mode by choosing the right mode via the power button
- Install custom images like on the kurobox (via ftp + untaring via telnet)
- Use fdisk to have custom partitions sizes.
- Move from the ext3 to the XFS Filesystem (this will matter if you convert the data partition -> transfer speed)
all this is only possible because of the work of LinuxNotIncluded (UBoot-Port, 22.214.171.124-kernel-patch).
And never forget andre. He constantly provides us the latest kernel for all ppc boxes with his bootloader (via loader.o) and thats also much work. http://hvkls.dyndns.org/downloads/ or http://downloads.linkstationwiki.net/mirrors/hvkls.dyndns.org/ mirrored here in the downloadsection.
LS Pro
Here most of development is going on. lb_worm is customizing the ramdisk & trying to create a FreeLink-hddrootfs, oh1jty is customizing the hddrootfs, jonli447 already booted a newer kernel and georg is thinking about creating a custom updater. All this is looking very promising.
Box independent
Ramuk started a nice project called FreeLinkomatix. The name was chosen because it was something like Automatix on Ubuntu. It does most of the things that a normal user would do anyway automatically. Thats why it makes it much easier getting started with debian on the Linkstation.
- Move all Platforms to UBoot
- Move to the latest kernel on all boxes
- Create a FreeLink for the LS Pro
- Create an unified OpenLink via Buildroot or OpenEmbedded for all Platforms

I've run breakin for days on end, and not found any memory errors, but when I run a full-blown hpl job, I find memory errors right away (if right away = a couple of days) Breakin runs xhpl on every core, but I'm not sure if it's MPI-based, or if every core is running an independent job. Maybe the breakin developer(s) can pipe in on how it stresses the RAM. Hope that helps. -- Prentice

Adobe is promoting Acrobat XI as a productivity enhancer for a variety of markets:
- Increased editability and cloud service integration for business professionals
- Integration with Microsoft Office and SharePoint, and increased efficiency for IT departments
- Much easier text and image editability for content creators and designers
- Security measures and PDF protection is now easier to apply, for data security personnel
One new feature in Acrobat XI is a complete sea change from previous versions and something I personally would never have expected to see—full PDF editability. From the reviewer's guide: "Professionals frequently need to edit content from existing PDF files without wasting precious time locating and revising source files." This is very true. As a designer, I've asked for native files a hundred times from clients who delivered PDF files and then needed changes (and didn't want to pay the original designer). There have always been tools to make PDF edits and Acrobat has had ways to revise certain elements such as images, but the PDF format has never been conducive to editing. That has changed in Acrobat XI.
This new editability is handled by the new Edit Text and Images tool. When it's active, text and image elements can be scaled, rotated and edited. Text will usually reflow during editing, which cures a major pain point for designers editing PDFs. Images can still be sent to Photoshop or Illustrator and back again. And you can execute find/replace commands to make text changes across an entire PDF. Acrobat XI's new editing tools are an improvement but I see some problems with it:
- PDF pages are treated as individual documents, so changes on one page will not cause text to reflow across pages. In fact, if you add enough text to a block on the bottom of a page, it will flow beneath the next page.
- Acrobat XI segments a PDF into text and image blocks during editing. Each one will reflow but they are not aware of each other, and this causes problems. For example, each bullet and item in a bulleted list is its own text block, and editing one will not cause layout changes for the other items. Paragraphs are separate text blocks and will not move up or down due to text changes around them.
- For some reason, I have also seen single paragraphs and captions composed of multiple text blocks. Editing these would be tedious.
- As with any document, missing fonts will be replaced with a default font. It looks like images are embedded, so they don't need to be linked with native files.
I think Edit Text & Images is a decent improvement but it doesn't replace native files. You can edit pretty much anything in a PDF with Acrobat XI, but it is not easy unless revisions are small. It's great for typos, but major edits causing page reflow would be a nightmare to deal with strictly in Acrobat XI.
Drag-and-drop merge is another major feature in Acrobat XI. Recent versions of Acrobat have provided ways to build large PDFs (PDF Portfolio comes to mind) and the "Combine Files in a Single PDF" command is buried in the File > Create menu and in other places including the Welcome dialog box. Acrobat has a lot of features nowadays and this one can be hard to find. When you do invoke the command, a dialog box is provided to add, reorder and remove files.
Corporate users will appreciate Acrobat XI's new Export to Microsoft PowerPoint feature. Entire PDFs or text selections can be exported as PowerPoint documents, and Acrobat XI does a great job preserving formatting and document structure (including master layouts). I see fewer PowerPoint presentations nowadays—Apple's Keynote actually shows up quite a bit in my work—but PowerPoint is still the industry standard in corporate environments. Along with PowerPoint, PDFs can also be exported in Word, Excel or HTML file formats. I can't think of any export formats missing now in Acrobat except for Keynote, although Acrobat can export a PPTX file that Keynote can work with.
Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint now also integrate Acrobat XI's enhancements in PDF security. Protect PDF is an option available when saving PDFs that will basically restrict copying, editing and printing. These restrictions are themselves not new but Acrobat XI makes it easier and faster to deploy these options. Along with Protect PDF, Restrict Editing in the Protection menu quickly password-protects PDFs from editing. This happens to be the restriction I apply the most, and it is an easy thing to do now. My only complaint—and it's one that has been around for many versions of Acrobat—is that I have to apply the security to a copy of the PDF, not the same one I'm working on.
This is the first version of Acrobat that really integrates with the Acrobat.com online applications and leverages those services. Acrobat XI ships with a desktop app for FormsCentral, the online form builder and response analytics service. FormsCentral is quite useful and I have used it for more than one project; it makes building robust forms easier and presents complete analytics. The Forms > Create menu item launches the FormsCentral desktop app, a portal to the online app, and from there you can command all FormsCentral features. One of the benefits of working with an online app is you can manage forms and analytics even if you're away from Acrobat XI.
Another online application that Acrobat XI integrates with is EchoSign, the digital signature service. Acrobat has relied on digital signatures in PDF forms for years, and EchoSign provides another layer of features including online distribution and tracking, delivery confirmation with Adobe Certified Document Services, and hand-signed electronic signatures applied via touchscreen devices. Over the years, Acrobat's electronic signature features have not changed much and I have found them to be confusing. EchoSign helps relieve the confusion, but what really clarifies things is the Place Signature option in the Sign panel. The Place Signature dialog box provides four options for electronically signing a document and it's pretty easy to use. EchoSign's real benefits come with document distribution.
One more feature that I think is really useful: Custom tool sets. Acrobat XI is a quite mature app and it has grown a long list of tools and toolbars. It has been particular long since the sidebar tool panel was released a couple versions back. There are almost too many tools, and definitely too many toolbars to be useful at once. Custom toolbars allow users to remove, add or move tools around in existing tool sets or create new tool sets. Tool sets are included on top of the sidebar panel. I don't know how useful this is in the creative professional market: Adobe creative products have used task-specific workspaces for years now, but customizing tool panels have typically not done well. In this case, Acrobat XI might have a good use for custom tool sets in the corporate market, where there's time, resources and motivation to build custom tool sets for department tasks. Another use for this could be in prepress and print production, where users work with PDFs regularly but have no need for Acrobat's collaboration and commenting tool panels.
Acrobat XI provides several new features that really stand out, and it's part of the Creative Cloud so it's available to many users without extra cost. The standalone product costs US$449/$199 full/upgrade. FormsCentral and EchoSign are both services with monthly costs—both are just under $15 per month.

Plolycarbonate plastic is a thermoforming finished plastic easily worked, molded, and thermoformed. Because of these properties, polycarbonates find many applications. Thermoforming plastics are plastics used in manufacturing processes where sheets are heated to a pliable forming temperature, formed to a specific shape in a mold, and trimmed to create a usable product strength, higher than both glass and polystyrene. Polycarbonate can undergo large plastic deformations without cracking or breaking.
Polycarbonate is a durable material. Although it has high impact-resistance, it has low scratch-resistance remedied by abrasion resistant Polycarbonate. The characteristics of polycarbonate are quite similar to acrylic, but polycarbonate is stronger and performs in a wider temperature range.
Polycarbonate is highly visible to light, with better light transmission than many types of glass. Polycarbonate is much lighter than glass, and is nearly unbreakable. Bullet-resistant variations are available and are used in windows and enclosures usually seen inside banks are often made of polycarbonate.
Polycarbonate is safe and shatterproof, transparent or translucent, durable and lightweight, with numerous optional specifications.
[Polycarbonate Spec Sheet PDF][Polycarbonate Machine Grade Spec Sheet PDF]
• Virtually unbreakable with extreme impact resistance
• Thermoformable
• Easily machinable
• Lightweight and rigid
• Excellent optical properties
• More impact resistance than glass
• Transparent up to 2" thick
• Wide temperature operating range (-40F to 280F)
• Lightweight
• Easy to glue, hot air weld and machine.
Common application include:
• Construction Materials: Bullet resistant enclosures, modern enclosures, large-scale architectural projects, chemically durable industrial coverings, high-traffic areas or leisure centers, domelights, flat or curved glazing, and sound walls.
• Graphics & Display: Screens (from picture frames to screen walls), safety & security glazing, machine operation safety and virtually any case where traditional glass proposes a risk.
• Fabrication: Easy to process while maintaining material robustness, formable through machining or conventional tooling. Fabricators are offered with a multitude of possibilities with easily processed materials, supplied in numerous specifications.
• Transportation: In the automotive industry, injection-molded polycarbonate can produce very smooth surfaces that make it well-suited for sputter deposition or evaporation deposition of Aluminum without the need for a base-coat. Decorative bezels and optical reflectors are commonly made of polycarbonate. Due to its low weight and high impact resistance, polycarbonate is the dominant material for making automotive headlamp lenses.

Twinwall or Multi-Wall Polycarbonate provides excellent insulation in a ribbed air-layer configuration. Multi-walled sheets traps air within the sheet, providing outstanding thermal insulation. High impact strength with great insulation and heat retention properties make twinwall an excellent choice for roofing panels, especially among greenhouses where it has been found to be perticularly effective. Other twinwall applications include shower enclosures, partitions, window replacements, patio covers, carports, awnings, wind breaks, light covers & enclosures, and other home improvement projects.

When Alexander Prokopowicz died in 1939, he was buried in Notre Dame Cemetery Section B, Lot 90, alongside his brother Joseph, who died in 1927. The large plot, owned by Joseph's family, marks the graves of several of his descendants. Stefania Prokopowicz was buried, in accordance with her wishes, in a single grave, St. George Section Lot 702. The cremains of son John were deposited there in 1986. In niches near the entrance of the Notre Dame Mausoleum are the cremains of son Joseph, who died in 2001, and daughter Josephine, who died in 2008. Son Adolph, who died in 1952, is interred at St. Joseph's Cemetery in Webster, and daughter Pauline, who died in 1985, in Brockton.

He was amazed I could put anything LESS than 6 toppings on it!
Simple Green and White Pizza (spinach and cheese sauce)
Recipe makes 2 pizzas
1 batch pizza dough +1 Tablespoon italian herbs (makes Six 6-inch pizzas)
Cheese Sauce
2 Tablespoons butter
2 Tablespoons flour
2 cups milk
1 Tablespoon herb&garlic cream cheese

text: The Role of Intelligence in Modern Society Are social changes dividing us into intellectual haves and have-nots? The question pushed aside in the 1970s is back, and the issues are far from simple Earl Hunt This article originally appeared in the July-August 1995 issue of American Scientist. Last year, Richard Herrnstein and Charles Murray published The Bell Curve: Intelligence and Class Structure in American Life. Although it had more graphs than a Ross Perot speech, The Bell Curve made its authors' names household words, sometimes accompanied by four-letter words. Herrnstein and Murray maintained that America is splitting into the intelligent, who will move and shake society, and the less intelligent, who will be moved and shaken. They thought that the split is inevitable, because our technological society requires intelligence to run it. Finally, they said that intelligence is largely hereditary, and that numerous government programs, especially Affirmative Action, are undesirable because they amount to discrimination against the capable. Such thoughts are not entirely politically correct. The first reactions to The Bell Curve were expressions of public outrage. In the second round of reaction, some commentators suggested that Herrnstein and Murray were merely bringing up facts that were well known to the scientific community, but perhaps best not discussed in public. A Papua New Guinea language has a term for this, Mokita. It means "truth that we all know but agree not to talk about." The uproar over The Bell Curve is remarkably similar to a debate in the early 1970s. The earlier debate began when Arthur Jensen (1969) wrote that the educational enrichment programs of the Great Society were inherently limited by the immutability of intelligence and when Herrnstein (1973) claimed that differences in intelligence are largely genetic. Counterattacks followed, and by the early 1980s widely read books and articles maintained that there is no such thing as general intelligence (Gardner 1983), or that if there is it is largely a statistical artifact of the way that tests are constructed (Gould 1983), and that even if IQ exists it has little to do with life outside of a few narrow academic settings (Ceci and Liker 1986). Some of these authors have recanted (Ceci and bruck 1994, pg. 79). A central question in the debate is whether or not mental competence is a single ability, applicable in many settings, or whether competence is produced by specialized abilities, which a person may or may not possess independently. Almost equally important is the question of how cognitive skill, as evaluated by IQ tests, translates into everyday performance. Popular presentations on both sides of these questions leave the impression that these questions have simple answers. They do not. My goal in this essay is to discuss different theories of how intelligence is related to performance in modern society. The plural was chosen intentionally, Although we know a good deal about individual differences in human cognition, there is no monolithic, agreed-upon, all-purpose theory to organize these facts, nor is there likely to be one. There are a number of different theories that are neither right nor wrong, but are useful for different purposes. read more http://www.americanscientist.org/template/AssetDetail/assetid/24538?fulltext=true

Clash of Clans, Candy Crush, Hay Day Top iOS Apps in 2013
European game makers continue to top the league tables of Apple apps.
Distimo, the Amsterdam-based apps analytics platform, published figures for the top-grossing apps at Apple's App Store for December, and revised its provisional 2013 figures released late last month.
Clash of Clans, made by Helsinki-based Supercell Oy, Candy Crush Saga, made by London-based King.com, and Hay Day, also made by Supercell, occupied the Nos. 1, 2 and 3 slots, respectively, in 2013. Minecraft, made by Stockholm-based Mojang was 6th — a spot higher than the provisional report, thanks to a strong performance in December.
But a very different picture emerges when looking at Google's store, Google Play, for the full year 2013. Candy Crush Saga was the top grossing app, but the other nine places in the top 10 all went to Asian game makers.

We are home.
It was a very long drive home as there was an accident on the express way and I had to take back roads around and then get back to the xway.
I miss my parents.
My kids miss my parents.
I was actually thinking about moving south.
I dont know if I would be able to do that.
Or if I truly want to.
Ok, well I do...but, how would I handle being that far away from my parents?
How would I feel taking my kids away from their grandparents?
It is true that I am unemployed.
I have not been able to find a job for the past year.
There are jobs in other states.
Oh what fun it is to be an adult.

Defense is back, but tests coming for Spurs
The Spurs had just survived a 119-113 victory over Cleveland, and coach Gregg Popovich was not a happy camper.
"I'm very disappointed in our defensive execution the last two or three weeks, after we raised our stock from being a middle-of-the-road defensive team last year to one of the top two or three this year," Popovich said on March 16.
"Then in the last three weeks, we decide to toss it like it's not important."
Since that defensive nadir, the Spurs have gone back to the drawing board, back to the basics and back to what their coach has always deemed most important to championship aspirations.
During the past three games — wins over Golden State and Utah and especially in a 96-95 loss at Houston on Sunday — the Spurs have produced performances more in line with the defensive renaissance Popovich sought and, in large part, has received this season.
Heading into tonight's game against high-powered Denver, the Spurs rank third in the NBA in defensive efficiency — a measure of points allowed per 100 possessions — after ranking 20th last season.
The Spurs are one of two teams, along with Oklahoma City, to have a top-7 rating on both offense and defense.
"Defense has been on and off," forward Stephen Jackson said. "We haven't been consistent with it. That's what we want, to get consistent before the playoffs. We can score points. We can knock down shots. Defense is what we hang our hat on."
With three high-octane teams visiting the AT&T Center this week — the Nuggets, Los Angeles Clippers and Miami Heat are all top-5 offensive teams — the Spurs' continued defensive resurgence will be key to survival.
In the three games since the scoreboard-spinning win over the Cavaliers, who haven't topped 95 points since, the Spurs have allowed an average of 95.3 points on 42.3 percent shooting.
In Sunday's loss to the Rockets, the Spurs held the NBA's highest-scoring team 10 points below its average, an encouraging outcome even in defeat.
Spurs players trace their defensive bounce-back to a couple of "refresher course" practices after the Cleveland game.
"Just practicing it, our rotations, our traps, who is the help-side person on defense," said small forward Kawhi Leonard, the team's star wing defender. "Just buying into that and bringing it to the game."
For Popovich, returning the Spurs' defense to title-worthy levels has been a project several seasons in the making. Denver coach George Karl can tell Popovich has gotten serious about that goal just by looking at the Spurs' most-often used starting lineup.
By pairing All-Star Tim Duncan with fellow 6-foot-11 big man Tiago Splitter, Popovich has reintroduced the "Twin Towers" look seldom seen around San Antonio since David Robinson retired.
Splitter's presence has given the Spurs a fighting chance of better defending the rim. It also frees up Duncan to block more shots (his average of 2.7 per game ranks fourth in the NBA).
"In the past, it was Robinson and Duncan," Karl said. "The two big guys patrolled the paint, and the other three guys stressed and pressured the perimeter. I see that again."
Before the week is out, the Spurs' defensive mettle will be stress-tested again.
If there are weaknesses, they will be exposed. If there are cracks, they will be exploited.
Popovich has been pleased with the team's defensive progress since that discouraging night against Cleveland. With 12 more games left before the start of the playoffs, he is thankful for more time left to improve.
"We're better than we were a couple weeks ago," Popovich said. "We still have some time to try and shore up some things."

The Experimental Notebook Dot Study (A)
O.OO NBS© The experimental notebook
As an extension of the Dot Study Notebook in the series, we are sharing some visual experimentations on odotoonbs.tumblr.com along side the exhibition period.
The Experimental Notebook series is specially created with a considered selection of paper and printing methods. It hopes to inspire users to think out of the norm. Within each each notebook are pages of dots and grids in 4 different sizes and are printed on alternate pages for handwriting to fall thoughtfully on the right side of the spread.
Its design allows for pages to be conveniently torn for making collages and origami. Using what is conventionally used for food packaging, the pages of greaseproof paper hopes to encourage users to contemplate the usage of the everyday things around us.

Operation Open Arms founder Capt. John Bunch of Pine Island likes telling stories about the U.S. servicemen and women and their families that he has taken on fishing trips over the years.
When one of his OOA charter captains, who he has never met in person, recently suffered a heart attack he couldn't keep from telling yet another story, this time about one of his own.
Captain Roy Bennett of Cape Coral has been one of OOA's trusted and reliable charter guides for about six years. Retired from the New York Police Department, Bennett was in the middle of taking a coronary stress test when he had his heart attack. He is now recuperating at home and resuming his charters aboard Hot One II.
Article Photos
Capt. Roy Bennett of Cape Coral received this flag and certificate of authenticity from an Army sergeant flying helicopter medivac missions in Afghanistan in gratitude for an Operation Open Arms fishing charter last April.
"I've heard nothing but praise and good things from servicemen and sponsors about Captain Roy," said Bunch. "He has received many tokens of appreciation from soldiers he has helped serving in Afghanistan and other combat zones."
Bennett received an American Flag from a soldier in Afghanistan that flew on a Blackhawk helicopter flying medivac missions. The flag came accompanied by a certificate of authenticity photograph of the unit and Army Sgt. Gaston Garcia's letter of appreciation.
"I took him on a tarpon charter in April," said Bennett. "He caught a 100-pound tarpon. He was thrilled just as much as I was."
The certificate of authenticity states the flag flew on 15 missions and more than 30 hours of medivac operations.
"I went out and got a frame for the certificate and for the flag and it is in my living room now," Bennett said. "I got all choked up and had goosepimples when I read it. It makes me feel good every time I look at it."
Bennett has taken 26 military OOA charter trips and many resulted in tokens of appreciation, such as shoulder patches, unit photographs, T-shirts, Iraq and Afghanistan money, as well as rare service medallions.
"Bennett never served in the military and I think that is the reason he contributes to OOA," said Bunch. "I think he realized that the next best thing to serving is by giving back to the troops through OOA."
Operation Open Arms provides fishing trip vacations and even weddings to U.S. military personnel home on leave from foreign combat zones and military outposts. A network of more than 60 charter captains in Florida and Maryland are backed financially by a stable of sponsors, donors and contributors eager to support our troops whether they have served themselves or not.
"I am extremely grateful that (Bennett) made it through and can return to taking Operation Open Arms chartersagain," said Bunch. "He has been a real asset to us and plays an important and generous part in taking troops on fishing trips."

|Oracle FAQ
|Your Portal to the Oracle Knowledge Grid
Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Myth of the database independent applications (Was: Are you using PL/SQL)
The market drives standardization.
If vendors of do not agree on standards then the market abandons the fractured interface. That is exactly what is happening. One reason why apps are written in Java and abuse DBMS as mere file systems is that vendors have not been able to keep SQL standardized. This is not the first time this happens and it won't be the last.
The very fact that deep exploitation of the DBMS is preached as a
"requirement" drives the app vendors away.
Why would an app vendor want to be held hostage by any specific database
vendor just to get a performance improvement that Moore's law will fix
for them in short time anyway?
Why would customers put themselves into a position where the vendor can dictate the support price upon next renewal because the customers cannot threaten to change the supplier and the vendor knows that all to well.
The premise of SQL was and is that it's the DBMS' job to optimize. It is not the app developers job to write e.g. EXIST instead of IN to achieve performance.
If vendors cannot agree on a procedural language then the customers cannot be blamed for refusing or at least minimizing its usage.

Frequently Asked Questions:
My son/daughter was evaluated by a physician for an injury. Does he/she need anything to return to his/her sports?
Yes. When an athlete seeks treatment from a physician in regards to an injury or medical condition, whether referred by one of the athletic trainers or not, a note is required from the physician clearing the athlete to return to athletics. This note, which may dictate restricted or non-restricted play, must be submitted to the athletic training office. With this note, the athletic trainers are able to re-evaluate the athlete and return them to their sport. The athletic trainers will then work with the athlete and coach to determine the most appropriate practice and game plan to ensure there is minimal chance for re-injury.
Is there a comprehensive plan in place for emergencies that may occur at athletic events at Hall High School?
Hall High School has an emergency action plan that specifies how our coaches, athletes, and staff respond to emergencies, medical and non-medical, while at contests and practices held at Hall High School and off campus venues (i.e. aquatic center and hockey rink). The plan is separated by venues and is issued and reviewed at each preseason coaches meeting.
Does Hall High School have any policies in regards to the safety of its student athletes during periods of unfavorable environmental conditions?
Yes. Hall High School has specific policies which address environmental conditions such as high heat/humid conditions and also lightning storms. The policies typically include modifications to practice and sometime game play. The decisions on these modifications are in collaboration between the athletic training department and athletic director and are made based on the daily environmental conditions.
My son/daughter stated they had to take the ImPACT test today. What is the ImPACT test and how is it utilized at Hall High School?
The ImPACT, Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing, is a computerized program which provides a cognitive evaluation of the athlete. It is used in the management of head injuries and concussion. At Hall High School, this process includes a baseline test to each freshman athlete who participates in a collision/contact sport. These sports include: Football, Boys' Soccer, Girls' Soccer, Field Hockey, Girls' Volleyball, Cheerleading, Girls' Diving, Boys' Basketball, Girls' Basketball, Wrestling, Hockey, Boys' Diving, Indoor Pole Vaulters, Baseball, Softball, Boys' Lacrosse, Girls' Lacrosse, Boys' Volleyball, and Outdoor Pole Vaulters.
Any athlete who sustains a head injury during participation in a sport will be required to take a post-injury ImPACT test. The athlete then must achieve results within the results achieved on the preseason baseline test or within normal limits determined by the test should there be no baseline test, demonstrating that there are no cognitive deficits related to the injury.
The results of the ImPACT test do not determine whether or not an athlete may return to his/her sport. It is used as part of the athlete's care in recovering from a head injury.
For more information on the ImPACT test, visit www.Impacttest.com. For more information in regards to the testing at Hall High School, contact one of the athletic trainers.
I need to get in contact with one of the athletic trainers in regard to my son/daughter's injury. How can I best reach them?
The athletic trainers are available primarily after school until the last contest has concluded. A message can be left on the athletic training room office voicemail. One of the athletic trainers will get back to you as soon as they can. Should you need to contact the athletic trainers outside of this time, their email address information can be found on the main page of the athletic training department webpage.

Hospitals readmit nearly 1 in 5 Medicare patients within one month of discharge, with the return trips costing the federal government more than $17 billion a year as of 2004, according to a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
Continue Reading Below
But, beginning this month, hospitals with too many Medicare readmissions stand to lose some of their Medicare income under a new health care reform initiative called the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program, or HRRP.
The program is part of an effort under the Obama health care overhaul that's aimed at reducing all hospital readmissions next year by 20% compared to 2010 levels.
Millions in penalties handed out
To identify problem hospitals, the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services compared readmission rates against national averages for Medicare patients treated for three acute health conditions: heart attack, heart failure and pneumonia.
By 2015, the review will expand to include readmissions for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, coronary bypass surgery, coronary angioplasties and other vascular conditions.
Medicare readmissions have already been deemed excessive at more than 2,200 hospitals -- roughly two-thirds of those evaluated -- and they were slapped with $280 million in penalties on Oct. 1. A list put together by the Kaiser Family Foundation using Medicare's data shows that the penalized hospitals include such prestigious institutions as New York's Mount Sinai Hospital, Boston's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Yale-New Haven Hospital in Connecticut.
Nearly 300 hospitals that most exceeded the national averages for readmissions will lose the maximum 1% of their base Medicare reimbursements for the coming year.
A stubborn problem
Past attempts to combat excessive Medicare readmissions have met with limited success due to the complexity of the problem and the difficulty in determining who's to blame.
"It's very hard to know what a rehospitalization is and if it's really the hospital's fault," says Toby Edelman, senior policy attorney for the nonprofit, nonpartisan Center for Medicare Advocacy Inc. in Washington, D.C. "Did the hospital discharge the patient too soon, or was the post-hospital care inadequate to meet the patient's need?"
Nancy Foster, vice president for quality and patient safety policy at the American Hospital Association, says that while the trade group supports the use of both positive and negative incentives to improve the quality of care, the punishment in this case hits high and wide of the mark.
"The penalty program penalizes hospitals much, much more than they were paid for the readmissions," she says. "And there are differences in the prevalence of primary care physicians, especially in urban inner-city poor areas and rural areas. ... We don't think the hospitals should be penalized because there aren't enough primary care physicians to meet patient needs once we discharge them."
Billing abuse part of the equation?
"So instead of getting sanctioned for readmissions, hospitals can get extra money," says Edelman. "I'm really concerned that if hospitals are going to be sanctioned for rehospitalizing people (under the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program), they'll just say, 'OK, now the person is in observation because that doesn't count; it's an outpatient status, not inpatient.'"
The Obama administration in late September sent hospital associations a toughly worded letter warning against efforts to "game the system," as officials put it. The letter, signed by Health Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and Attorney General Eric Holder, vowed that the government will take a hard line in prosecuting hospitals and doctors cited for billing fraud.
Some are hopeful
The Medicare Payment Advisory Commission, or MedPAC, an independent agency established in 1997 to advise Congress on Medicare issues, says readmission transparency combined with coordinated incentives and penalties to encourage hospitals, nursing homes, physicians and health care providers to coordinate outpatient care can help bring down readmission rates.
Dr. Marty Makary, a surgeon at Johns Hopkins Hospital and author of "Unaccountable: What Hospitals Won't Tell You and How Transparency Can Revolutionize Health Care," heartily agrees.
"There hasn't been any incentive for hospitals to widely adopt some best practices except in the rare case when there has been transparency," Makary says. "Where we've seen things publicly reported, like the new readmission rates, we see tremendous resources spent on the local level trying to get things right."
Don't forget about the patients
The Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program is just one of many initiatives currently underway to improve the quality of post-hospital care for discharged Medicare patients and close the door on excessive billing.
"There are a number of things going on around this issue, both sticks and carrots," says Keith Lind, senior policy adviser for AARP's Public Policy Institute. "We don't want people coming back to the hospital if they don't need to and costing extra money. It's both hard on the patients and hard on the (Medicare) program."
Foster hopes the patient will remain central in the search for a solution to the Medicare readmissions issue.
"Hospitals desire for patients to be healthier, to be well," she says. "It's easy to forget that we're talking about individuals' lives."

|How many call boxes are there, and where are they located?
Currently, 29 of the state's 58 counties have call box programs. These range from the system in Los Angeles County, with more than 4,000 call boxes, to Humboldt and Del Norte counties, where only a few call boxes have been installed in particularly isolated areas. Statewide, there are 15,000 call boxes, lining some 6,300 miles of California highways. Call boxes throughout California generate more than 100,000 calls per month. All costs associated with the call box program are paid for by a $1 annual fee assessed on vehicles registered in the participating county. Caltrans, the California Highway Patrol and regional "SAFE" agencies ("Service Authority for Freeways and Expressways") jointly operate the program. Some counties in California, generally in rural areas, do not have call boxes. The primary reason is that these counties do not have enough registered vehicles to purchase, operate and maintain a system of call boxes.

Ice cores are cylinders of ice, drilled from an ice sheet or a glacier.
They are usually 10 centimetres in diameter, and can be taken from deep in the ice.
Ice cores provide trapped samples of ancient air.
"Air bubbles trapped in ice are like little time capsules that record the past atmospheric composition.
"So we measure loads of different gases, and essentially we can measure greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane."
Most ice core records come from Antarctica and Greenland.
Law Dome is a location in Antarctica.
The evidence in Law Dome ice cores shows that since the 18th century, when the Industrial Revolution began, the level of carbon dioxide has risen.
Now it has reached around 400 ppm, a rise of 85 ppm in just 56 years.
The longest ice cores are from 3km deep in ice.
The oldest ice core records extend 123,000 years in Greenland, and now to 1 million years in Antarctica.
Ice cores contain information about past temperature, and about many other aspects of the environment.
The graph shows how carbon dioxide has increased and decreased over hundreds of thousands of years.
During glacial stages, ice covered large areas of the Earth.
The peaks in the graph show times when carbon dioxide was high, matching times called 'interglacial stages'.
The most recent glacial stage occurred between about 120,000 and 11,500 years ago.
Since then, the Earth has been in an interglacial period called the Holocene.
During glacial stages, CO2 levels were around 200 parts per million (ppm).
During the warmer interglacial periods, they hovered around 280 ppm.
In 2013, CO2 levels passed 400 ppm for the first time in recorded history.

Artist Creates a Blake Shelton Replica Out of Dixie Crystals
Blake Shelton dropped Dixie Crystals Sugar into his hit song 'Boys 'Round Here,' and now an artist has dropped Dixie Crystals Sugar on Blake Shelton. Reginald Adams, the president and CEO of Museum of Cultural Arts Houston, created a portrait of the singer using sugar and sugar packaging. A time-lapsed video shows his process.
According to the Houston Chronicle, it took Adams 30 hours to create the 30x30 portrait. He used granulated, powdered, light brown, dark brown and turbinado sugars. Imperial Sugar Company hired him to create Sugar Shelton, while Open Box Productions filmed it and created the time lapse video.
"Yeah, the girls 'round here, they all deserve a whistle / Shakin' that sugar, sweet as Dixie Crystal," Shelton sings in his hit song. His wife Miranda Lambert and her Pistol Annies bandmates joined Shelton on the track from 'Based on a True Story ...'
Sadly, it's not clear what will become of Sugar Shelton now that the artwork is complete.

PITTSBURGH — One flick of the wrist. One guttural scream. One very simple message to the rest of an equal parts welcoming and wary NHL.
Sidney Crosby is back.
The superstar center capped his return from concussion-like symptoms with two goals and two assists in his season debut as the Pittsburgh Penguins roared by the New York Islanders 5-0 on Monday night.
Unleashing more than 10 months of frustration in 16 energetic minutes, Crosby put to rest all the questions that had popped up during his lengthy comeback.
Can he still skate? Can he take a hit? Can he play at his nearly peerless level? Can he mix it up?
The answer- for the first night anyway – is an emphatic yes.
"I don't really have good words for it," coach Dan Bylsma said. "That was a special in a lot of ways."
For no one more than Crosby, who celebrated his first goal in 328 days in decidedly un-Crosbylike fashion.
After a breathless sprint down the ice in which he weaved through the New York defense and beat rookie Anders Nilsson with a backhand, Crosby raised his arms in triumph and let out a roar punctuated by a hard-to-miss profanity.
He laughed while watching himself on replay and later apologized for his poor choice of words while admitting "I couldn't hold that in."
Crosby added assists on goals by Evgeni Malkin and Brooks Orpik and capped his comeback with a second tally, a backhand that fluttered by Nilsson early in the third period to provide the final margin.
Steve Sullivan also scored for the Penguins while Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 29 shots to collect his 21st career shutout, one behind franchise leader Tom Barrasso.
Nilsson, making just his second start of the season, made 31 saves for New York but was no match as Penguins roared to life with their captain back.
An electric Consol Energy Center crowd greeted Crosby with a deafening roar when he skated onto the ice during warm-ups while "Back in the Saddle Again" blared over the speakers.
Fans held placards with "Sid' on them – a directive from Hall of Famer and team owner Mario Lemieux – while others brought homemade homages to "Sid the Kid," including one that read "Merry Sid-Mas."
Crosby's return gave a late-November game between a perennial contender and an overmatched also-ran a playoff-like feel, and not just because more than 250 press credentials were handed out, four times the usual number.
Throughout his achingly slow rehab the 24-year-old stressed he wouldn't return until he felt 100 percent and stressed it would be nearly impossible to top Lemieux's successful return from retirement in 2000, when he notched an assist on his first shift then later added a goal and another helper.
Amazingly, Crosby one-upped his boss.
Displaying the speed that's made him a national icon in his native Canada and the face of the sport before his 25th birthday, Crosby transformed the Penguins from Cup contender to Cup favorite in less than 6 minutes, or the length of time it took for him to find the back of the net since last December.
Finishing off a backcheck, Crosby streaked up the ice, took a pass from Pascal Dupuis as he crossed the center line and went to work. He worked the puck to his backhand, slipped past New York's Andrew MacDonald and flipped the puck over Nilsson's glove.
"I saw for a few seconds they were a little flat-footed," Crosby said. "I was able to get some good speed built up when I got it. I knew I had a chance to go wide."
He was just getting started, later helping the Penguins go up 2-0 by feeding Orpik on the point and watching his defenseman rifle a slap shot by Nilsson.
Bylsma said before the game he'd try to monitor Crosby's minutes, but knew it would be difficult to keep him off the ice.
It was.
Crosby played nearly 16 minutes and for the first time in nearly a year, absorbed a hit at game speed. New York's Travis Hamonic cleanly checked Crosby to the ground during a first-period Pittsburgh power play.
"Did I know who it was? Yeah," Hamonic said. "I thought it was just an opportunity to be hard on someone and, you know, that's all it was and just got caught out there battling."
It was the first real test of Crosby's comeback, and he popped up immediately to get back in the play as the Penguins – and the rest of the hockey world – exhaled.
Even if Crosby wasn't exactly thrilled at getting popped.
"I was mad at myself for putting myself in that position," Crosby said. "(But) I'm glad I kind of got that over with too early on. There's going to be more hits and probably harder ones."
He appears ready, which makes his return a "be careful what you wish for" proposition for the rest of the league. The Penguins have been solid without him. During his first night back, they were spectacular.
Crosby earned a secondary assist on Malkin's power-play goal early in the second and Malkin later provided a highlight-worthy point of his own, threading a saucer pass to Sullivan as Pittsburgh pushed the lead to 4-0.
"I thought we had a decent start, it's just I think (Crosby's) goal gave them a big lift and they had some momentum from the power plays and they took it to us early in the second and we couldn't come out of that," New York center John Tavares said.
Crosby capped his brilliant debut with a backhand that fluttered by Nilsson in the third, turning the last 15 minutes of the game into a party worthy of late-spring not the week of Thanksgiving.
