Bush explains Medicare D
Subject: IN CASE YOU MISSED THIS: UNDERSTANDING THE NEW MEDICARE DRUG BILL
Bush Explains Medicare Drug Bill -- Verbatim Quote
Submitted on 2005-12-13 16:35:14
WOMAN IN AUDIENCE: 'I don't really understand. How is the new plan going to fix the problem?'
Verbatim response: PRESIDENT BUSH:
'Because the -- all which is on the table begins to address the big cost drivers. For example, how benefits are calculated, for example, is on the table. Whether or not benefits rise based upon wage increases or price increases. There's a series of parts of the formula that are being considered. And when you couple that, those different cost drivers, affecting those -- changing those with personal accounts, the idea is to get what has been promised more likely to be -- or closer delivered to that has been promised. Does that make any sense to you? It's kind of muddled. Look, there's a series of things that cause the -- like, for example, benefits are calculated based upon the increase of wages, as opposed to the increase of prices. Some have suggested that we calculate -- the benefits will rise based upon inflation, supposed to wage increases. There is a reform that would help solve the red if that were put into effect. In other words, how fast benefits grow, how fast the promised benefits grow, if those -- if that growth is affected, it will help on the red.'
Pass it on. [hat tip JZ Souweine]

- How to Read a Study Record
- Some research studies focus on digestive disorders, such as nutritional, gastrointestinal, and liver disorders. Researchers want to examine and treat people with digestive disorders in order to learn more about these disorders. They also want to study how digestive disorders run in some families. To do so, they will provide standard care to people with digestive disorders. They will also look at relatives of people with digestive disorders, such as parents, children, and siblings.
- To examine and treat people with digestive disorders.
- To evaluate people with digestive disorders for research studies.
- Individuals of any age who have digestive disorders.
- Individuals at least 2 years of age who are first-degree relatives of the people with digestive disorders.
- Participants will have at least one outpatient visit to the National Institutes of Health. The visit will last about 2 hours.
- All participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. They will also provide different samples for study. Samples may include blood, urine, and stool samples. Saliva and hair samples may also be taken. Skin biopsies and rectal swabs may be collected from adult participants.
- Participants with digestive disorders may be able to receive treatment through this study....
|Condition or disease

The National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) is conducting a protocol to evaluate and provide standard treatment to participants with various diagnosed and undiagnosed digestive conditions. Investigators of this protocol provide GI consultation at the NIH Clinical Center for a range of GI conditions.
Objectives: The primary objective of this protocol is to allow digestive care specialists in NINR and other institutions to provide standard of care. Evaluating and treating participants will allow digestive care specialists to maintain their expertise and gain additional knowledge of the course of various digestive disorders. Additionally this protocol will allow for hypothesis generation and provide a resource of patients for enrollment into new research protocols throughout the NINR branches. The information obtained will allow for the evaluation of standard treatments of the studied digestive diseases. This understanding may lead to ideas for future protocols. The protocol will also allow for trainees to receive training in the management of digestive disorders.
Study Population: The number of participants for this evaluation and treatment protocol will be set to 500 patients with digestive disorders and their unaffected first-degree relatives.
Design: This is a natural history evaluation and treatment protocol of the progression and physiology of multiple digestive disorders. Blood or other biologic samples (including but not limited to stool, urine, saliva, hair, cheek swab, or tissue) will be obtained through non-invasive means or incidentally to clinical care for future laboratory studies. In addition, genetic samples may be collected from unaffected first-degree relatives and may be used to identify and verify causative mutations.
Outcome Measures: The outcome measures for this protocol are the clinical assessments of enrolled participants, including their response to standard treatments. Also, causative mutations may help establish pathogenic mechanisms and genotype-phenotype correlations.

|If you build it, they will come.
Or rather,
If you declare it, they will come. Opportunities, that is.
I declared 2013 "The Year of the Writer." I set my goals, put my butt in the chair, and started to make the motto my reality. And I have been wonderfully rewarded!
I received a notice this week that I was accepted as a freelance writer for the online site www.FamilyShare.com. I had applied near the end of last year, but I hadn't heard anything for months. I figured either my application had been lost or I just wasn't a good fit for their program. Happily, I was wrong on both accounts.
I will be contributing 20 articles a month. That's about one per day, five days a week. I've finished and submitted my first article, and I'm now waiting for editing. I'm almost finished with a second, and have started a third.
I've already found a pattern for writing that seems to work well for me. I start the article in the afternoon. Then, I go to bed, thinking about problems with it or changes I want to make. I wake up and finish the article. Then, I'm ready to start the next one in the afternoon.
I believe this will help advance my writing. It will give me the opportunity to write a lot. Practice makes perfect! I'm sure to see an improvement in my writing that will spill over into my fiction. It gets my name out there and builds my resume. Being a paid writer is a little more prestigious than being one of so many aspiring writers.
I'm excited for this new stage in my writing journey!
What good news have you received lately?

25.61% Profit in 8 Days: Our Subscribers Benefit From Stock Market Rally
SK OptionTrader subscribers banked profits of 25.61% last week following our trading signals on SPY calls. We signalled to buy call options on the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) based on the view that the US stock market would rally leading into the Fed meeting.
On the 11th of June we signalled subscribers to "… buy SPY Oct '12 $138/$140 Vertical Call Spread for a $0.82 net debit with 5% of our capital allocated to this trade".
On the 19th of June, eight days later we told subscribers "We hereby signal to close our SPY Oct 20 '12 $138/$140 vertical call spread for a $1.03 net credit with 5% of our capital allocated to this trade". This means we have banked a 25.61% profit in just eight days!
As you can see on the above chart, the S&P 500 rallied prior to the Federal Reserve FOMC meeting on the 19th.
We were aware the Fed could've disappointed by not announcing QE3 at the meeting and hence equities would've dropped.
We therefore decided to bank our profits on the 19th by closing out the position prior to the FOMC meeting.
A $2,000 investment in this trade would have been worth $2,512 just 8 days later!
A subscriber who invested $5,000 in this trading signal would have banked $1,281 in profits and in just over a week would have covered their subscription fee more than twice over.
Subscribe for 6 months - $499
Subscribe for 12 months - $799
As it turned out the Fed didn't announce QE3 and as the chart shows equities sold off as we predicted.
If we hadn't made the decision to close our trade prior FOMC meeting, we would be sitting on a small loss. This shows the importance of being nimble and being able to trade around significant events.
SK Options Trading does not operate on a buy, hold and hope basis. We are a trading operation this flexibility has enabled us to deliver strong returns ever since inception.
The success of this SPY trade is not in isolation. This trade was our 100th closed. Out of those 100, we've had 91 closing at a profit. Each trade (including losers) has generated an average return of 35.39% (meaning the 25.61% return on our latest trade is below our average).
Our trading signals are open on average for just 50.55 days, so although we are a trading operation, we are not day traders. We believe our niche is between the buy the hold and hope and the hyperactive day trading strategies, and this niche has served us and our subscribers well since inception.
Subscribe for 6 months - $499
Subscribe for 12 months - $799
Prior to signalling this trade, we communicated our thoughts on equities to subscribers in our weekly subscriber update, where we discuss the markets and offer analysis on where we think markets are headed and what our trading strategy is going forward:
"… we are seeing some bullish signals for US equities. The signal we consider to be the most important is the sub-zero bullish MACD crossover. The chart below attempts to illustrate when the crossover has occurred before over the last five years, with successful signals in blue and unsuccessful ones identified in red.
This crossover has occurred 18 times in the last five years, arguably being accurate on 14 of those occasions. This signal, combined with the fact that the S&P 500 has retraced roughly 50% of its rally since September and the possible lift equities could get from further Fed easing has now caused us to now become bullish on the US stock market.
In terms of trading this move, we will look at taking some positions this week..."
Shortly after updating subscribers on our outlook, on Monday the 11th of June we observed favourable buying conditions and signaled to our subscribers to do the following:
"We hereby signal to buy the SPY Oct 20 '12 $138/$140 vertical call spread for a $0.82 net debit with 5% of our capital allocated to this trade.
To execute this trade we are buying the $138 calls and simultaneously selling the $140 calls for a net debit for $0.82
The risk in this trade is limited to the net debit. Therefore for every option contract in the spread we have $82 at risk.
The return in this trade is limited to 143%, since this spread cannot be worth more than $2.00"
The value in our service is not limited to the profits we generate for subscribers, we also provide full updates on a weekly basis outlining our thoughts and offering market analysis and guidance on our future trading strategy.
We communicate our actions and intentions extremely clearly, spelling out in full detail what is involved when entering into each trade we place.
For the more complex option trading strategies that involve buying or selling more than one call or put at different strike prices or expiration dates we give precise instructions on how to enact each leg of the trade in order to eliminate subscriber confusion and error.
All of our trading signals contain strictly limited risk and that the full risk of any trade is always stated clearly.
Not only do we instruct subscribers on what is involved and how to place a given trade, we quote live market prices at the time of sending to further eliminate uncertainty and maximise returns for our subscribers.
We also advise on how much to allocate to each trade as a percentage of tradable capital based on our assessment of risk.
It is these fine details that differentiate our service from many others that overcomplicate, confuse and frustrate their customers with poor communication and muddy instructions. On top of our crystal clear trading signals, we are more than happy to answer any questions subscribers have about our trading recommendations or other inquiries about the service.
Paramount to our success lies in the flexibility of options and the opportunities they provide. Had we of simply bought into the SPY ETF, we would have had zero leverage.
We could have bought SPY shares at $132 on the 11th of June. We could have sold those shares on the 19th of June for $134.5 for a profit of 1.9%. Instead we banked at 25.61% profit by effectively using options!
By using options we outperformed the purchase of the SPY shares 13.47 times over!
We knew when entering into our options contract that the funds at risk were only $0.82 per contract – an observable amount we could quantify before entering into the trade.
The maximum gain we could have achieved was 144%, as the spread was limited to closing at $2. This predictability is fantastic for calculating upside and downside potential and therefore, how attractive a given trade is based on one's outlook and risk-reward preferences.
If one doesn't have the time to regularly monitor their emails in order to place our trading recommendations or simply wants a more passive way to use our service, Global Autotrading and e-Option could be useful. These two services place our trading recommendations on our subscribers behalf, meaning when we signal a trade the Autotraders automatically enter into it with the precise amount of your capital allocated based on our recommendation. There are some fees involved but the Autotrader services allow for zero subscriber participation for those seeking the ultimate in trading ease. We do not receive any compensation from Autotraders, we simply provide them to make trading easier for the subscribers who are just too busy to take action at the appropriate time. The Autotraders are completely separate and independent of SK Options Trading.

A lot of people will agree that love isn't just a journey of happy endings. In fact, if you happened to watch the interview of the Queen of Comedy - AiAi to her recent break up with her husband, you will feel the pain that everyone of us is capable of feeling. Heartbreaks as they say is a part of relationship, Tell me who among here aren't experiencing arguments over your significant others and who among here aren't prone to heartbreak's?
When i was nursing a broken heart to my first bf, i remember having the perspective that maybe it's already the end of the world. I was like feeling depressed and bitter over the fact that he already found someone new and i was never the woman he has been dreaming all along. See, how painful that fact is and waking up each morning is far worst and sleeping is like a medicine. Like how i was born, cuddling with my pillow was my ultimate resort. I cried until my tears get dry and i pray for as long as i remember. True as they say, when you used with the pain already, there will be just a morning that will come that everything seems to be getting fine.
I admit, i rush unto finding a new lover as im afraid in being tagged as single and unhappy while my former lover was enjoying his new flame. Being a brat and immature, i entertained dating after a week and enjoy men's company. But then, after the day ends, i find myself alone and weeping as i can't understand myself thinking my ex still and moving on will never happen overnight.
I remember seeking counselling and enjoying my friends company a lot more. We watched movies, we did bar hopping and we traveled a lot. Yes, it helps but the most essential thing i learned is being with the people who makes you happy will eventually makes you a little better everyday until you eventually realize how your happiness is important and one day at a time, i forgot the pain and packed the pieces of those broken heart to eventually saying goodbye and cutting the rope that attached me to him.
For me, i found myself brave as i manage to surpass that stage but what amazed me is the realization that i can move on with just the thought of making myself happy and not doing it for the sake of letting him know that i moved on. At that, i just find this tips really helpful:
When It's Time To Let Go
1. If the thought of breaking up enters your mind more than once
2. When you start paying more attention to someone else
3. You want kids. He doesn't.
4. If you haven't been happy for a long time
5. When it gets dangerous
6. When you don't trust him anymore
7. You are pressured to stay in the relationship

Former Lakers and Clippers teammates and other members of the "basketball brotherhood" expressed support and wishes for a quick recovery Wednesday after learning ex-NBA star Lamar Odom was found unresponsive at a Nevada brothel.
The 35-year-old remained hospitalized after he was found face down at Nevada's Love Ranch Tuesday afternoon, according to brothel owner Dennis Hof. Odom, who spent the most successful part of his NBA career in Los Angeles, was stabilized and taken to Desert View Hospital in nearby Pahrump, a Nye County Sheriff's Department statement said.
Lakers great Earvin "Magic" Johnson was one of several current and former Lakers who tweeted support for Odom.
"What most people don't realize about Lamar Odom is that he's a better person than he is a basketball player," Johnson tweeted. "Every year Lamar Odom was with the Lakers, he would buy the rookies their first 2-3 custom suits, that's what type of guy he is.

Former Clippers teammate Chris Paul issued a statement at the end of his news conference in Shanghai, where the team played the Hornets.
"I wanted to extend love and support to one of our NBA brothers, Lamar Odom," Paul said. "We love you, man. Keep fighting. He's a member of this fraternity, our basketball brotherhood, and we love you and we're all there for you, man."
Ex-Lakers big man Shaquille O'Neal asked fans to join him in wishing Odom well.
"Everyone that reads this post, please pray for my friend Lamar Odom that he makes a full recovery. #MyHeartHurts," O'Neal tweeted.

Details regarding Odom's hospitalization began to emerge as the Lakers played Tuesday night against Sacramento in Las Vegas. Lakers announcer Bill MacDonald sent out well wishes with a on behalf of the team.
Several Lakers players visited the hospital after their exhibition game Tuesday night in Las Vegas, The Associated Press reported.
"There's not one word I could say that would make sense," Laker Metta World Peace said, clearly distraught.
Odom spent most of his 14-year NBA career in Los Angeles with the Lakers and Clippers, becoming a fan favorite and beloved teammate. His also was well-respected among opponents.
"I couldn't sleep last night," tweeted Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade. "Sitting and thinking about LO as the person I know him as and thinking about what he has gone thru in his life.

Odom emerged as one of the most promising basketball talents of his generation after a difficult childhood in Queens, where his mother died of cancer when he was 12 and his estranged father was addicted to heroin. He eventually won two NBA championship rings and an Olympic medal, and became a reality TV star with the high-profile lifestyle that comes along with it in Southern California.
The neighborhood he grew up in, South Jamaica in Queens, was rampant with drugs and street crime, and he never forgot where he came from, writing tributes to his mother and grandmother on his sneakers before games. The rangy kid with a silk-smooth shot and exceptional ball-handling skills drew comparisons to Magic Johnson when he played on a traveling youth team alongside Ron Artest, aka Metta World Peace, his future Lakers teammate.

Hotly recruited from high school, he spent a year at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, where NCAA investigations kept him from playing, and then spent a year at the University of Rhode Island, winning the conference title.
Tall enough to play center and skilled enough to be a playmaking guard, Odom's talent was so coveted that he was picked fourth in the 1999 NBA draft by the moribund Clippers. Suddenly, he was "living like a 19-year-old rock star," he said.
Odom had two children during those years, Destiny and Lamar Jr., with an ex-girlfriend, Liza Morales. They had another infant son, Jayden, whose crib death in 2006 was attributed to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.
After seven years with the Lakers, Odom felt crushed in December 2011 when the club traded him.
Odom loved wearing the Lakers' purple and gold. His selfless play won him the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year award.
The Lakers won a second NBA final as he played alongside Artest. Loving fans followed him from his downtown Los Angeles loft to the arena before playoff games. His obsessive consumption of candy endeared him even more.
He played his final NBA game 18 months after he was traded from the team.

|Part of an entry in a Goodna Asylum case book
Reasons for the onset of mental illness (as stated in case books) include childbirth, epilepsy, head injury, alcohol, syphilis, congenital defect, jealousy, 'domestic troubles', bereavement, and 'deserted by the father of her child'.
Goodna Asylum case books often give the patient's admission date, discharge or death date, age, marital status, number of children (and age of the youngest), occupation, country of birth, residence, religion, mental disorder and its onset, changes in behaviour and general health, and a physical description. Some entries include names of 'insane relatives' (here or overseas), references to time spent in other asylums, or comments such as 'good bowler at cricket'. For some patients there are letters or photographs.
For patients transferred on 10 Jan 1865 from the Lunatic Asylum, Brisbane, to Woogaroo Lunatic Asylum, case books also give the date of first admission. Until Woogaroo Asylum opened in 1865, psychiatric patients were treated at the old convict hospital, and in some cases there are references in prison records.
Information from case books has traditionally been available only to close relatives in special circumstances via Right to Information - but I have details from case books for some patients admitted more than one hundred years ago. To help family historians, I have indexed those names (and many others). I have also created a mini-guide, Researching Mental Asylum Patients.
Note that case books are completely different from Public Curator insanity files, which are much easier to obtain and potentially even more useful for family history.
If you need help to get copies of historical records for Queensland mental asylum patients, follow this link. Each page with a list of names has details of my research and copying services.

Biographer Bob Colacello & special guests Brigid Berlin & Vincent Fremont talk about Andy Warhol.
Bob Colacello edited Andy Warhol's Interview magazine and was a close collaborator with Warhol for many years. Bob's biography of Warhol, Holy Terror, has been widely acclaimed as one of the greatest insights into the elusive and influential artist. Now Holy Terror is back in a revised, enhanced edition. Drawing not only on Bob's time working with Warhol, this updated edition includes a wealth of newly published photographs from Bob's time at the Factory.
Bob is joined by two other very special guests from Andy Warhol's Factory circle, Vincent Fremont, a staple in the collective from 1969 on and longtime exclusive agent for the Warhol Foundation, and Brigid Berlin, an American artist and an Andy Warhol superstar.

I'am trying for a longtime to drop down my Lp(a). Unfortunately without success. The figures still range from 0,60 to 1,10 g/l. I've yet tested 10 to 30 gram Vitamin C and 5-6 gram Lysine. After reading the book from Owen Fonorow "Practicing Medicine without a License" I've supplemented 1 to 2 gram Proline since one month. After this month I've tested the blood level again. But it is unchanged yet.
Therefore my question: Why does my Lp(a)-level not drop down? Was the time after supplementation with Proline to short? I want to call you for advice what to do or how I can do it better? I've had two heart attacks. And 4 stents implanted. The doctors say: your lp(a), it's genetic and you can't change it. You have to take Aspirin, Statins, BetaBlocker and so on lifelong. But I don't want and don't believe it.
I'm a competitive athlete, nonsmoker, body-mass-index 20. And... I've read the hopeful books from Linus Pauling, Matthias Rath, Owen Fonorow, Thomas Levy, Steve Hickey, Andrew Saul, Abram Hoffer and so on.
With best Wishes
I don't recognize those units, but assuming they are high (what is considered normal?) I can tell you what we think we know (no one is studying this.)
A) You are correct to keep taking vitamin C, lysine and proline which Pauling/Rath patented as "Lp(a) Binding Inhibitors". This means that even if blood Lp(a) levels do not decline, these nutrients will make it less likely your arteries will continue to narrow and less likely that you will suffer a heart attack.
B) In the early research, Pauling and Rath did not prove that elevated Lp(a) would decline, only that Lp(a) would not become elevated by taking the correct dosage of vitamin C (in guinea pigs). Once Lp(a) becomes elevated we enter the world of anecdotes - not science.
C) As I relate in the book (thanks for reading) a NY medical professor was testing his Lp(a) taking vitamin C and lysine - every six months. Lp(a) only dropped the expected 30%... Then he added proline, forgot to take the next 6 month measurement, but a year later with the addition of proline, his Lp(a) had plummeted to ZERO. (That's when he called me to tell me about this experiment). We note that the high dose Pauling Therapy users at this forum who report their Lp(a) (including mine) are close to zero, and I have a family history of heart disease.
So keep taking the Pauling therapy, and if you stay on proline, I predict that the Lp(a) will eventually drop. If you test regularly, please report back to us. Thank you.

A batch is simply a portion of a collection that goes through the upload process bundled together. This page contains or links to information related to the batching process and what differentiates it from a whole-collection upload.
- 1 Creating a Batch
- 2 Batch Documentation
- 3 Checklist: What's different about workflow for a batch
Creating a Batch
What is a batch?
A new batch is created when you decide to upload content from an ongoing collection. This almost always happens when you've broken off and numbered a new Scans folder, but it is possible to upload several Scans folders at once. Whatever the case, the content from a particular collection which is uploaded together is a batch, and this content should be no more than 300 items or 4000 captures.
Dual role of the metadata spreadsheet
As of January 2013, tracking data is incorporated into the metadata spreadsheet during the capture process. For the purposes of this explanation, metadata refers to the data which goes online, while tracking data is the internal, administrative information we capture for our unit. Those columns are found at the end of the spreadsheet, and they should be removed before handing off the spreadsheet to the metadata unit.
Isolating a batch within the metadata spreadsheet
- As you track your captures in the metadata spreadsheet, make sure to note in the Batch column that the item is part of the current batch.
- Note which items have been skipped by labeling them 'skipped' in the Batch column
- When you are ready to upload a batch, sort the spreadsheet by the Batch column; this will bring all of the lines of metadata for that batch together
Batch Documentation
Batch Spreadsheet
- Used by: the Metadata Unit
- Used for: remediating metadata that has already gone online
To create a batch spreadsheet...
- Select just the rows that belong to the batch, plus the header row
- Deselect the tracking data, leaving the metadata
- Save the selection as a new, separate file: a Microsoft Excel document (.xlsx)
- Naming format: collectionnumber.batchnumber.m0number.xlsx
- Example: u0003_0000193.2.m01.xlsx
- Save this file to the Metadata folder temporarily; just prior to upload, it will be moved to Administrative\Pipeline\collectionInfo\forMDlib\needsRemediation
Batch text export
- Used by: Digital Services
- Used for: MODS creation
To create a batch text export...
- Select just the rows that belong to the batch, plus the header row
- Deselect the tracking data, leaving the metadata
- Save the selection as a new, separate file: a tab-delimited text document (.txt)
- Naming format: collectionnumber.batchnumber.m0number.txt
- Example: u0003_0000193.2.m01.txt
- Save this file to the collection's Metadata folder (S:\Digital Projects\Digital_Coll_Complete\[collectionnumber]\Metadata)
Batch log file
- Created for: archiving tracking data collected during the capture process
To create a batch log file...
- Select just the rows that belong to the batch, plus the header row
- Deselect the metadata, leaving the tracking data
- Save the selection as a new, separate file: a tab-delimited text document (.txt)
- Naming format: collectionnumber.batchnumber.m0number.log.txt
- Example: u0003_0000193.2.m01.log.txt
- Save this file to the collection's Admin folder (S:\Digital Projects\Digital_Coll_Complete\[collectionnumber]\Admin)
Batch OCR list
- Used by: Upload Script
- Used for: telling MakeJpegs which files to process through Tesseract
To create a batch OCR list, see these instructions
Note on naming files made from older spreadsheets
- For older spreadsheets that don't have m0numbers (m01, m02, m03, etc) simply leave that out
- Examples
- u0003_0001577.30.xlsx
- u0001_2007010.4.log.txt
Checklist: What's different about workflow for a batch
- Preparation for Upload
- Create a collection folder in Digital_Coll_Complete, and
- Move the Scans folder to it
- Create Admin and Metadata folders
- Copy the appropriate documents from in_progress to Admin and Metadata
- Create batch spreadsheet in Administrative\Pipeline\collectionInfo\forMDlib\needsRemediation
- Create batch metadata text file in S:\Digital Projects\Digital_Coll_Complete\[collectionnumber]\Metadata, with MODS created from that
- Create batch log file in S:\Digital Projects\Digital_Coll_Complete\[collectionnumber]\Admin
- Create a collection folder in Digital_Coll_Complete, and
- Upload
- The script-running process should be identical
- With a batch (unless it's the first), the collection info xml is already online, so you don't have to wait for Acumen to index the items before you can run moveContent
- Storage
- You will not need the collection info xml file when you move the collection from the share drive to storage. In fact, the moveContent script will tell you to delete it...unless it is a new, improved version
- Documentation
- Unless you're working on the last batch of a collection, do not move the collection from in progress to completed on the Selection spreadsheet

NFL Delays International Expansion, A Victim Of The Economy, CBA Stalemate
January 25, 2010: Even as the NFL anguishes over what to do with its Pro Bowl format, the league has nixed the addition of a second International Series game in 2010, citing economics and the looming CBA situation as the main reasons. Although the NFL did reinforce its quest to expand the league overseas, that timetable now falls under the category of later, rather than sooner.
As recently as last week the NFL said it was "continuing to explore the possibility of playing a second game in the UK in 2010," and even had been considering as many as four games per season within the next few years. But the league has now put that plan on indefinite hold.
"Playing one game in the UK is a significant investment," NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement. "Playing a second game is an even bigger investment. As we considered this, the uncertainty related to the ongoing CBA discussions linked to the current global economic climate were critical factors in our decision not to play a second game in the UK." Talks between league owners and the NFL Players Assn. currently are stalled in their efforts to negotiate a collective bargaining agreement that would take effect when the current CBA expires at the end of the 2010 season.
The decision came less than two weeks after the Denver Broncos and San Francisco 49ers were unveiled as the participants for the 2010 International Series game scheduled for Oct. 31 at London's Wembley Stadium. Pepsi Max, which took over title sponsorship of the International Series last year from Bridgestone, is expected to remain as title sponsor under a multi-year deal signed in 2009.
The NFL has been ramping up its presence in the UK over the past few years, including expanding its London office to a year-round operation, attracting more marketing partners, boosting its presence on TV and making its NFLUK.com Web site more attractive to both dedicated and casual fans. Marketing partners that activated behind the 2009 International Series game included title sponsor Pepsi Max, Nike, Reebok, Coors Light, Canon, GM/Chevrolet and Marriott.
NFLUK did not add any statement to those released by the NFL and chose not to "speculate about what might happen in future years."
However, during a recent interview, Alistair Kirkwood, director for NFLUK, told NYSportsJournalism.com, "There obviously has been a big demand for the games up until now, and they sell very quickly. Therefore there are more people who want tickets than can get them. You can still make the International Series special right now with two games a year. You can make them both stand out and be special. . . . But I turn it around the other way: How do you make sure that it doesn't come across as a novelty, as an event that just comes into town and leaves? We have to make the International Series more prevalent and do more things to support it."
Even with a second UK game on hold, the league plans to succeed in territory where it previously found rough going, including several failed attempts between 1991-2007 to establish European-based American football leagues.
"For the past three years we have seen the extraordinary passion that exists for NFL football in the UK," said Goodell. "We want to continue to build on that passion by strengthening our ties to our existing UK fans and creating new ones. Our ambition to bring a second game to the UK is as strong as ever. Once the current uncertainty is resolved, we will be in a strong position to bring multiple games to our UK fan base."
San Francisco will be participating in its second regular-season game on foreign soil, having played the Arizona Cardinals in Mexico City in 2005 in what was the first international regular-season game in NFL history. That game drew 103,467 to Azteca Stadium. The league did not play an international regular season game in 2006, but returned to the format in October 2007 and moved it to London's Wembley Stadium when the New York Giants beat the Miami Dolphins, 13-10, in front of 81,176 people in what was the Bridgestone International Series.
In October 2008, the New Orleans Saints beat the San Diego Chargers, 37-32, in with 83,226 at Wembley Stadium. In October 2009, the New England Patriots beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 35-7, before 84,254 in the renamed Pepsi Max International Series.
The NFL's changing international scenario comes as the league is monitoring its decision to move the annual Pro Bowl. This year, the game was shifted from Hawaii the week after the Super Bowl, a format that had been in place since 1980, to the week before the Super Bowl in Miami, where Super Bowl XLIV will be played. It will be shown on ESPN on Jan. 31.
Numerous key players have dropped out due to injury or other personal reasons, including quarterbacks Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger and Philip Rivers. A dozen players were taken off the roster when the Indianapolis Colts and Saints, which each had placed six players on the Pro Bowl roster, won the AFC and NFC championship games, respectively, and reached Super Bow XLIV. Among them are Peyton Manning, Reggie Wayne and Dwight Freeney from the Colts and Drew Brees from the Saints. The Pro Bowl already is scheduled to return to Hawaii the week after the Super Bowls in 2011 and 2012.

Forecasting this General Assembly's environmental future
When your well runs dry — as Michelle Steel's did, as you'll read in this week's feature story — you're an outlier. In our part of the country, rural living is a luxury. Suddenly you're paying for that luxury.
When you live on county or city water, you're part of a collective that shares the hidden cost of bringing this precious resource into your home in the country. When your well runs dry, you're on your own.
Septic systems are another luxury of rural living, but those of us who rely on them are not so independent. When your septic system fails, your sewage pollutes our shared water resources. So Maryland's Flush Tax — more nicely known as the Bay Restoration Fund — falls on us all. Our common investment improves the management of waste on farms, in public water treatment plants and the private sewage treatment plants — aka septic systems — of households in our Bay's widespread Critical Area.
The neat distinction between private and public, wells and septics, underpins the Bay Restoration Fund, which is one of the laws that sets Maryland apart.
With Congress gridlocked over spending — as are many states as well —Maryland still has the potential to advance. But robust rear-guard action can also be expected in this year's General Assembly.
At issue here is Plan Maryland, the state's 20-year blueprint for sustainable growth and development. 2012 laws promoting Plan Maryland are likely to draw challenges this year.
Those laws doubled the Bay Restoration Fee from $30 to $60 per household; restricted the expansion of septic systems; and required urban counties to devise plans and funding for better managing stormwater.
Republican-driven resistance is also directed at freeing counties from the federal Bay diet's restriction on the Total Daily Maximum Loads of pollutants. The Conowingo Dam may show up in 2013 legislation, for it's become a scapegoat in the scramble to avoid dietary limits.
In protecting legislation already on the books, Democratic lawmakers and state agencies will have strong environmental support. League of Conservation Voters, for one, has made holding those lines one of it four priorities in 2013.
"We want to finish the job of cleaning up the Bay by defending progress made last year and making some fixes to the stormwater bill, including extending fees to state and local governments," says Conservation Voters' Jen Brock-Cancellieri.
The new year's environmental advances are directed to energy, specifically to hurrying up wind power and slowing down fracking for natural gas.
Gov. Martin O'Malley does not intend to be turned back a third time in his bid to bring wind on grid, insiders say.
The Maryland Offshore Wind Energy Act of 2011 never achieved a full hearing in either the House or the senate. 2012's revised Offshore Wind Energy Act passed the House only to stall in the Senate Finance Committee. In both years, it was one vote short of moving to a vote on the Senate floor.
This year's assault is starting in that committee. A wind lobbyist has been put to work persuading two of the senators who held up last year's vote. And a recalcitrant senator has been reassigned to a new committee, Judiciary, by Senate President Thomas V. 'Mike' Miller.
"I don't juggle committees lightly," Miller told Bay Weekly. "I wouldn't have done it except that I think there's overwhelming support for this bill on the floor. We're going to try to give the bill a chance to get there. We've got to find some alternatives to coal-fired plants. Wind is expensive, but it solves our energy problems for the future."
This General Assembly is expected to consider a moratorium on fracking for natural gas.
"Unless and until we learn we can frack without impacting clean water or putting people's public health at risk. We want to do it right in Maryland or not at all," says Brock-Cancellieri.
The debate has new immediacy after a Jan. 4 court ruling that Dominion Cove Point is not blocked from exporting natural gas from its import terminal in Calvert County. Fracking in the Marcellus shale would provide that export gas.
Other environmental bills will ask us everyday consumers whether we'll put our money where our mouth is in controlling the proliferation of bags — a five-cent charge — and bottles — a refundable deposit. The bottle deposit starts in the fast lane: its sponsor is Del. Maggie McIntosh, chair of the House Environmental Matters committee.
Do you approve?
Bill Burton would.

What's up, Norway ?
What's up, Norway ?
Please mention the weather you had during the test drive! Outside temperature? Cabin comfort? Snow, ice, wet roads?
My test-drive for tomorrow noon, was just cancelled by Tesla due to circumstances beyond their control. Not too happy, but looking forward to a new chance soon.
Environmental info: Oslo today was +2C, very light snow, wet roads.
has just posted an excelent review on TMC
The Tesla rep seems to be confirming future 4WD version
the HD bakc up camera of no use ins dirty road conditions!
including video;
Here's another try to link to Johan's Review.
Good that he got his drive in before another Norwegian crashed it in the sleet! Slight delay now while parts and panels are flown in from the States...
To bad... I was supposed test the model S on thursday, but I got a call from Tesla today. They said that due to an incident they had to find a new date for the drive.
Does anyone know what happened?
My test drive Friday has also been cancelled.
The rep from TM could not say any details about when the car would be ready, "We'll come back to you"
Obviously there has been a small crash and damage.
Driving a 420 hp RWD car on sleeky Norwegian roads, perhaps with too hard "all season tires", requires a very soft tocuh on the accelerator
When I get mine (standard not performance) I will go for very soft rubbered winter tires (19inch wheels) in the cold season
Model S TC should handle that power. More likely too fast cornering or too long stopping distance at critical moment. Or it might not have been Tesla fault at all, someone else could have collided to the car.
The latter gets my vote.
A Swiss guy implied Norwegians were crash-prone. ;)
Has anyone heard if the car has been repaired yet? Is this the first crash of a Model S on public roads?
It would be interesting to see what the repair costs are compared to an Audi A8 for example (aluminium body) I'm sure insurance companies would like to know, since there is probably very little data out there so far for them to base their pricing on.
The car is repaired and OK. My test ride today went smootly. A beuty of a black S perforamnce with 19 inch Pirelly studless winter tires . Minus 3 C; dry roads, no problems. The car is really nice and very easy to drive. Did not try the acceleration fully, the regen in standard seems OK. The does not feel as big as I feared. The seats are OK - not so "american style soft" as I feared, but could perhaps have a little more lateral support for those who like to take corners fast.
Regarding the incident: the Tesla Rep would not disclose any details. Rumor has it that there was a TV crew ( TV2) who were involved in a test at that time.
I wonder how it would have done today here in southern Finland. We had a small snow storm here last night, 30+cm snowfall and wind speed over 25m/s (so that in dunes there were a lot more).
BTW, has anybody anything to say about car in strong side wind? Or how prone it is to follow tracks that snow forms to roads? Car is wider than most cars, so it's a kind of one side off the track and one in all of time, so that's a good situation to get severe slide easily.
I had my first model S test drive today in Oslo. Drove 3 hours to get 10 minutes in the car and it was totaly worth it! The leap from my current car(97 hp gasoline manual gear front wheel drive) was huge! I have never tried a car that is so easy to drive. What I didn't enjoy was getting back in my Corolla and driving 3 hours back... I want my model S now!
To those of you who believe Norwegians crash a lot: maybe Tesla also believes that? Because there are now two model S in Oslo. They said the new silver one was for display only, but I belive it is a spear one in case someone crashes again :-P

This site is designed for women who like to make a statement with their footwear. These shoes aren't just a part of the outfit, they are the outfit and that's what I want my site to say.
I want to have the ability to have a site where I can add pictures and text myself.
The purpose of the site is to promote shoes for other companies on the internet. I would like to be able to put up links to other websites personally if you could help me with that.
I'd like for this website to have a very classy, simple look. I would like a black background. I'm looking for two feature colours, one of which I'd like to be grey or white. The other can be a colour of your choice. The headline or title on the homepage would be JovialFeet.com which can be in grey or white (whichever you think looks best with the other colour you choose). I would also like a menu that links people to different parts of the site. The menu tabs would be colour, height, price, and past shoes of the week. Each of these would have a dropdown menu with different options. for example, colour would have black, white, blue, red, ect.
To feature the shoes on the homepage,there will be a picture frame, which I will attach, in which the shoe would go inside. The feature shoe does get changed every week so I would like to be able to personally change the shoe. There will also be a description for that shoe as well as about 4-6 different views of the featured shoe.
This is the shoe i'd like to feature first:
The other pages that are linked onto the homepage via the dropdown menu will have a simple title such as "black shoes" that show only black shoes. I would also like these shoes to be in a much simpler picture frame, which I will also attach. I would like to be able to add new shoes whenever needed.
The rest is up to you!

Manchester City began their pre-season tour of America with a comfortable 4-1 victory over MLS champions Sporting Kansas City at Sporting Park.
Argentinian Bruno Zuculini opened the scoring early on for the Premier League champions before CJ Sapong equalised on the half-hour mark, but a goal from Dedryck Boyata just before the break put City back in front.
Aleksandar Kolarov made it three with a penalty midway through the second half and Nigerian striker Kelechi Icheanacho, who has been training with City for the past few weeks, claimed their fourth at the death.
Andros Townsend scored a late winner as Tottenham claimed a 3-2 victory against Toronto FC at BMO Field.
Erik Lamela had netted a first-half brace for Spurs before the home side came back with goals from Andrew Wiedeman and Jordan Hamilton. Second-half substitute Townsend struck the winner with five minutes remaining.
Liverpool suffered a 1-0 defeat to Roma at Fenway Park, home to the Boston Red Sox baseball team, following a last-gasp goal from Marco Borriello for the Serie A side in the Reds' opening match of their US tour.
Aston Villa impressed as they recorded a 2-0 victory over the FC Dallas. Andreas Weimann struck at the end of the first half and Charles N'Zogbia doubled the scoreline just after the break at the Toyota Stadium.
Crystal Palace were held to a 2-2 draw against the Columbus Crew in Ohio.
The Eagles fell behind to an Adam Bedell header before Glenn Murray and Jake Gray scored each side of the break to give the Premier League side the lead, but Daniel Paladini's late equaliser denied them victory.

Prolific goalscorers dominate FIFA.com's latest stats review, from Leandro Damiao, Moussa Konate, Christine Sinclair and Abby Wambach at London 2012 to Marcus Tulio Tanaka in the J.League. Also under the spotlight are a dismal run of spot-kick failures at River Plate and a landmark achievement by Mexico.
consecutive minutes without conceding was the streak that came to an end for Japan with Marco Fabian's equaliser in yesterday's semi-final against Mexico. The midfielder's 31st-minute strike ended a run of four straight clean sheets and left the Samurai Blue 185 minutes short of the tournament record, set by Argentina between 1996 and 2008. It also provided the spark for a victory that saw the Mexicans become the first team from the CONCACAF region to reach the final of the Men's Olympic Football Tournament. Up against them in Saturday's gold-medal match will be a Brazil side for whom Leandro Damiao has now scored six times, climbing to third in the list of his country's all-time leading Olympic marksmen behind Romario (7) and Bebeto (8).
goals from USA and Canada established Monday's thrilling clash at Old Trafford as the highest-scoring semi-final in the history of the Women's Olympic Football Tournament. The epic encounter, which eclipsed the Americans' 4-2 win over Japan in 2008, ended with its most prolific player on the losing side, with Christine Sinclair's hat-trick ultimately in vain. The Canada icon nonetheless became only the third female player, after Germany's Birgit Prinz and Cristiane of Brazil, to score an Olympic treble. With Abby Wambach also on target to maintain her record of having scored in every one of her five London 2012 outings thus far, the game ended with these two outstanding North American centre-forwards locked on 143 goals apiece, 15 short of Mia Hamm's all-time world record. USA's Christie Rampone, meanwhile, made her 21st Olympic appearance, leaving her second only to Brazil's Formiga (24), and the US skipper can become the first footballer of either gender to win three gold medals when her team face Japan on Thursday.
goals were contributed by one player in Nagoya Grampus Eight's 5-1 win over Vissel Kobe on Saturday. This would have been impressive enough had the player been a striker, but the free-scoring individual in question was veteran centre-half Marcus Tulio Tanaka. The 31-year-old has long been known as a potent force in the opposition box, but never before had he managed four in one game. Indeed, Tanaka's haul set a new national record, establishing him as the first defender in the history of the J.League to rack up such an unlikely tally.
successive penalties have now been missed by River Plate after Rogelio Funes Mori continued this unhappy streak in Sunday's 2-1 defeat to Belgrano. The trio of failures - one in each of River's last three matches – began when Alejandro Dominguez missed against Patronato and continued when David Trezeguet came up short against Almirante Brown. Funes Mori's latest miss was arguably the most distressing, though, as it extended Belgrano's unbeaten run over Los Millonarios to five matches, while also evoking painful memories of Mariano Pavone's penalty agony in last year's infamous relegation play-off. Not that spot-kick woes have been restricted to River. Elsewhere, Racing Club's Jose Sand missed two penalties in a single game, both of which were saved by Atletico Rafaela's Guillermo Sara, to become the first player in Argentina's top division to have two spot-kicks kept out by a keeper since Boca Juniors' Miguel Brindisi on 5 December 1982.
goal every 76 minutes: that was Moussa Konate's impressive average over the course of four appearances at London 2012. The Senegal striker struck five times in just four appearances prior to his team's exit and, in doing so, became the first man since USSR's Fyodor Cherenkov at Moscow 1980 to score in his opening four Olympic appearances. Spain could have done with a player as clinical as Konate. Despite being listed among the pre-tournament favourites, and attempting 41 shots over the course of London 2012, La Roja headed for home with the ignominious honour of being the only team not to have managed a single goal.

BOSTON, Mass. — Elderly women with early-stage breast cancer live longer with radiation therapy and surgery compared with surgery alone, researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine have found. The researchers, who collected data on almost 30,000 women, ages 70 to 84, with early, highly treatable breast cancer enrolled in a nationwide cancer registry, are reporting their findings at the 54th annual meeting of the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO).
"Overall survival and breast cancer-specific survival were significantly better at all time points for elderly women with Stage I, estrogen-receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer with no lymph node involvement who received radiation therapy following surgery to remove the tumor," says lead author Randi J. Cohen, M.D., M.S., an assistant professor of radiation oncology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and a physician in the Department of Radiation Oncology at the University of Maryland Marlene and Stewart Greenebaum Cancer Center.
For women who had radiation and a lumpectomy, the overall survival rate was 88.6 percent at five years, 65 percent at 10 years and 39.6 percent at 15 years. That compares with a survival rate of 73.1 percent at five years, 41.7 percent at 10 years and 20 percent at 15 years for women who only had surgery. The median survival was 13 years for patients receiving surgery and radiation, compared with 9.9 years for patients receiving surgery alone. The researchers don't know how many of the women also received hormonal therapy.
"Our findings suggest that adjuvant radiation therapy should be strongly considered as part of the treatment regimen for otherwise healthy elderly women with early ER-positive breast cancer," Dr. Cohen says. "A woman's age alone should not dictate whether or not radiation is recommended."
The senior author, Steven J. Feigenberg, M.D., an associate professor of radiation oncology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and a researcher at the University of Maryland Greenebaum Cancer Center, notes that the data also showed that the use of adjuvant radiation decreased as the women grew older. Eighty percent of women age 70-74 received radiation compared with 61 percent of women age 80-84.
"Breast radiation is the standard of care following lumpectomy for early-stage breast cancer, but previous research suggested that it helped to prevent the cancer from returning in the treated breast but has no impact on survival in older women," Dr. Feigenberg says. "As a result, some elderly women may not have been offered radiation therapy as part of their breast cancer treatment. We wanted to look at a large, population based database to determine if radiotherapy does offer some benefits in terms of survival, and we found that it does."
Breast cancer patients typically have radiation treatments five days a week for six weeks following surgery, to prevent the cancer from recurring.
E. Albert Reece, M.D., Ph.D., M.B.A., vice president for medical affairs at the University of Maryland and the John Z. and Akiko K. Bowers Distinguished Professor and dean of the University of Maryland School of Medicine, says, "Breast cancer is a very common problem for older women, with more than half of the women diagnosed with breast cancer in the U.S. over the age of 65. Many of them have early-stage cancers, which can removed with a lumpectomy. This large-scale study provides convincing evidence that adjuvant radiation therapy should also be offered to these older patients."
The researchers analyzed data from the SEER (Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results) registry, which is maintained by the National Cancer Institute. They identified 29,949 women, from 70 to 84 years old, who were diagnosed with early-stage (T1 N0 M0) ER-positive breast cancer between 1990 and 2009 and had limited surgery. Seventy-six percent of the patients also received adjuvant radiation.
The median follow-up was 5.5 years, but the researchers used an analysis tool to determine overall survival and breast cancer-specific survival, which was also improved for patients who had surgery and radiation, the researchers found. At five years, the breast cancer-specific survival rate was 98.3 percent for women who received radiation and surgery compared to 97.4 percent who had surgery alone. At 10 years, the rate was 95.5 percent versus 93.3 percent.
The researchers attributed the improved outcomes with surgery and radiation to better "locoregional control" of the cancer. They also noted that patients selected to receive radiation may have been healthier with a longer anticipated life expectancy than those who did not receive radiation.

I'm sure most Gen-Xers remember these from elementary school classrooms. Califone 1455k They were reading aids and you often had a bank of headphones plugged in and would read along in the book while you listened on the headphones. Found this in the church basement when I started here as pastor. Quite a trip down memory lane - wish I could have found some of those flimsy plastic records that used to come in the middle of magazines as well.

Careful home renovation is rewarded with a conservation award from the city.
Maintaining the mid-century harmony in Briarcliffe
OTTAWA — James Laish points to one of many windows in the meticulously renovated mid-1960s International Style home in Ottawa's Briarcliffe neighbourhood.
"Where's the boundary of the room?" he asks. "The window? The railing on the balcony? Those trees?"
You quickly understand there is no answer to the question because what barriers there are between the inside and outside of this 1.5-storey home — purchased by Laish and his wife, Danielle Jones, in 2009 but known as the Butler residence for the original owners — are so minimal they may as well not exist.
That minimizing happens when you create a rectangular structure with extensive glazing, as the late architect Brian Barkham did in designing this home in 1964.
It's urged along when you plan the interior, which is flooded by natural daylight, so that it's a series of living spaces — family room, kitchen, living room and so on — connected by hallways so short that you're through them before you realize you're in them. The result: moving through the house feels as natural as a stroll down a country lane.
Finally, plunk that minimalist home atop a rocky escarpment surrounded by mature maples and you shouldn't be surprised to hear Jones say, "When you're living here, the walls seem to fall away, and you're more aware of the outdoors."
Which is a good thing, considering their goals when they decided to leave downtown Toronto a few years ago included being closer to nature.
They scoured the province for five years for a suitable modernist home in a natural setting. When they discovered the listing for this one, they dropped everything, hightailed it to Ottawa for the weekend open house and submitted their offer on the Monday.
Now, several years and a hefty renovation later, the duo is sharing, along with Ottawa architect John Donkin, an award of excellence for renovation in the city's recently announced 2012 Architectural Conservation Awards.
The exterior of the home, a mix of glazing, concrete block painted white and vertical cedar siding, was untouched in the renovation except for repairs to woodpecker damage to the wood. The outside of the horizontally oriented home is free of ornamentation, in keeping with the dicta of modernist and, more particularly, its subset international style. That would doubtless please Austrian modernist architect Alfred Loos, who, in rejoiced a 1910 essay that "We have out-grown ornament," equating that achievement to reaching Zion.
Most of the 1,200-square-foot main living area remains original. That includes wonderful 1960s features such as the living room's white-oak veneer built-ins and, in the kitchen, hanging cabinets and bell-shaped pendant lights. Rather than replacing windows, the couple painstakingly removed and replaced caulking on every one of the 82 double panes, enhancing energy efficiency while respecting the original cedar frame construction.
Downstairs, the space was stripped out, walls insulated, and a new concrete floor with radiant heat poured. Since Jones and Laish are both work-at-home designer/artists, his-and-hers design studios with an additional common work area were added. One new window has been installed over Jones' work table, but trim and baseboards match the original profiles. The entire sleek space is of a piece with the rest of the home, thanks to Donkin's juggling of his clients' contemporary usage requirements and the home's original design.
The renovation has shrunk the heating bill by two-thirds, underscoring Jones' contention that "houses of this vintage can be sympathetically restored and made to be energy efficient."
That vintage and the modernist style define Briarcliffe. Created in 1959, the area was originally home to a group of engineers, architects and others seeking an enclave where design and nature intersected harmoniously.
Many of them, it seems, in immigrating from Europe to work at forward-looking places like the National Research Council, brought with them a sensibility to modernist architecture, then still very much the new kid on the Ottawa block.
Briarcliffe homes, which were approved by a committee, had to be modernist and respect the wooded, rocky landscape out of which many of them seem almost to grow. Homeowners signed covenants dictating things like exterior finishes and restricting changes to their homes, although Jones points out that the occasional conversion of a carport to a garage, for example, means the neighbourhood does continue to evolve stylistically.
That covenant has expired, but Briarcliffe is now protected thanks to the city's recent designation of it as the country's first mid-century modern heritage conservation district. Jones, a prime mover in that effort, says every homeowner in the neighbourhood signed a petition supporting it.
A drive through Briarcliffe, even for a stranger, is a reassuring experience. A sense of common purpose and rare sensitivity to surroundings pervade the neighbourhood.
It's a little like what Laish says about the Butler residence: "It's evidence of a thoughtfully designed house. It worked well in 1964 and still works well."

FDA to develop GDUFA self-identification database; warns about ANDA backlog fee
The database – detailed in a new Q&A document - is for active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and finished dosage manufacturers, packagers and bioequivalence and bioavailability (BE/BA) testing sites covered by GDUFA and is separate to the list of facilities required to register under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.
Agency spokesman Christopher Kelly told in-Pharmatechnologist.com that: "Under GDUFA, facilities are being required to self-identify, not register. FDA is establishing a new system for the electronic self-identification of generic industry facilities, sites, and organizations.
"Therefore, entities that are required to register and list (under section 510 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act or section 351 of the Public Health Service Act) and those being required to self-identify under GDUFA will submit information separately to the respective systems. Each system will populate its own database to meet unique requirements and deadlines."
But, while the databases will be distinct – and may mean some firms need to submit data twice – the systems will employ the formatting and standards used by the existing Drug Registration and Listing System (eDRLS) and will be accessed via the FDA's existing electronic submissions gateway.
In addition, the facilities, testing sites and organizations involved in ANDA submissions must provide Data Universal Numbering System (D-U-N-S) numbers and Facility Establishment Identifiers (FEI) to enable quick identification of each plant in the database.
Self-registration means additional time, but the FDA does not think the burden will be too great.
The agency estimates that preparing and submitting data will take just two and a half hours for each facility and – based on the 3,000 or so submissions it expects to receive – 7,500 hours across the whole industry. It also suggests that collecting this data will not involve additional cost for manufacturers.
ANDA backlog fees
In a separate notice in the Federal Register the FDA reminds generic drugmakers that it is not too late to withdraw pending abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) and avoid a backlog fee due to be applied on October 1.
To avoid the fee – a total charge of $50m that will be divided by the number of pending ANDAs – non-branded drugmakers are advised to withdraw their applications in writing no later than September 28.

Just kidding. The Arizona Republic didn't report this. As usual, the malpracticing "mainstream" media isn't interested in any news that doesn't fit their Leftist agenda. You have to check the "alternative" blogs to find out that more guns equal less crime. We found this at BearingArms.com.
From January 2013 to June 2013:
Nationwide, forcible rape was down 10.6 percent, burglary was down 8.1 percent, murder was down 6.9 percent, and aggravated assault was down 6.6 percent from the previous period. Arson plunged a staggering 15.6 percent.
There was slight increase (0.6-percent ) in murders in cities with a population of 25,000-49,999, and a 2 percent rise in murders in cities with a population of 50,000-99,999. The number of murders plunged the deepest in cities with a population of more than 1 million citizens, which reported a 18.5 percent drop.
Overall, violent crime dropped 5.4 percent, with the largest drop in non-metropolitan areas, which saw a 10.5 drop in overall violent crime, and a 13 percent drop in murders.
The crime rate dropped as firearm sales had a record-breaking year.Click here to read more
