|Behavioral: MISC training for primary caregivers
|Not Applicable
In Uganda, about 110,000 children 0 to 14 years are living with AIDS however enhanced access to ARV medications has changed the prognosis for infected children from a uniformly deadly disease early in childhood to one in which survival well into adolescence is not uncommon. However, these prognostic changes have made psychosocial, educational, and quality-of-life considerations for the HIV child all the more critical. Studies on Ugandan HIV infected children show that they have cognitive, motor and emotional problems. These findings support the need for caregiving interventions with HIV children that extend beyond provision for basic medical and nutritional care only. These findings support the urgent need for programs that minister to the emotional and psychosocial needs of HIV-affected children.
The MISC is one such intervention that has proven effective in improving the cognitive, psychosocial and emotional needs of disadvantaged children. The MISC intervention is based on the use of naturally occurring situations and objects in the home environment. The process of training the caregivers in MISC theory and strategies is structured, whereas the process of implementing MISC with the children in the household is individualized and unstructured. The training of the caregiver is focused on the acquisition of knowledge and skills necessary for effective intervention to enrich the child's home-based learning environment.
Specific Objectives.
- To establish the feasibility of MISC for caregivers of HIV infected children in Kayunga.
- To investigate whether cognition and psychosocial functioning of HIV infected children are improved by MISC.
- To determine whether cognitive and psychosocial gains for children of MISC-trained caregivers is moderated by disease severity of the child.
3. METHODS Phase 1: Adaptation of the MISC Study design. Adaptation of the MISC will be done using a cross sectional descriptive study. Prior to recruitment of participants, Prof. Klein will hold a series of focus group discussions (FDGs) in Kayunga to critique the MISC intervention.
Study population. Community leaders, health workers and parents/caregivers in Kayunga district, three FGDs will be held for each of these groups. They will partner with Dr. Klein in revising and adapting the MISC curriculum for training the local MISC staff who will accompany the CAI teams as they visit the HIV children and caregivers for the home health care visitation (HHCV). These CAI nursing staff will then train the caregivers each month as part of these HHCV visits.
Phase 2: MISC intervention Study design. This will be a randomized control study where HIV infected children younger than 6 yrs of age will be recruited and randomly assigned to either MISC intervention or non- intervention. All children will be recruited from the Child Health Advocacy International (CAI) project in Kayunga district during their routine home visits. Consecutive sampling will be used till the sample size is reached.

(Reuters) - Shares in credit rating agency Moody's Corp (MCO.N) slid 6 percent on Friday as the prospect of a federal fraud lawsuit over its pre-crisis debt ratings overshadowed a 66 percent rise in quarterly earnings and a strong 2013 outlook.
The U.S. Justice Department and several states are discussing suing Moody's for defrauding investors, people familiar with the matter told Reuters, but any such move will likely wait until the lawsuit against rival Standard & Poor's is tested in the courts.
The U.S. government launched a $5 billion civil suit last week against S&P and its parent, McGraw-Hill Companies Inc MHP.N, over mortgage bond ratings.
"If the question has become when, and not if, a lawsuit will be filed against Moody's, then the shares are simply unbuyable, in our view," BTIG analyst Mark Palmer said.
Moody's and S&P have faced criticism from investors, politicians and regulators for assigning high ratings to thousands of subprime and other mortgage securities that turned sour.
On a post-earnings conference call, Moody's Chief Executive Raymond McDaniel said the company had not been named in the S&P lawsuit and routinely receives requests for information from state attorneys general.
"We don't have any knowledge of any pending complaint by the Department of Justice raising similar claims against Moody's," McDaniel added.
Moody's already faces fraud claims filed from private investors. Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank, King County in Washington state and other investors are suing the company over losses in Cheyne, a structured investment vehicle.
Moody's shares slid to $43.89 on Friday morning, before bouncing back to $44.02 on the New York Stock Exchange. They have fallen around 20 percent since news of the S&P investigation.
"I don't know how a portfolio manager can explain why he was holding the stock when this legal sword of Damocles is hanging over Moody's," Palmer said.
On its conference call, Moody's focused on its forecast of a strong year ahead. Moody's and S&P have benefited as firms refinance debt to take advantage of rock-bottom interest rates to access cheap funding.
Revenue in Moody's corporate finance business rose 73 percent to $244.9 million in the quarter.
The company said it expects full-year earnings in the range of $3.45 to $3.55 per share and revenue growth in the high single digits percent range.
Analysts on average were expecting earnings of $3.18 per share, excluding items, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
"The legal fears are overshadowing what is a stellar 2013 outlook. I think the fears are overblown, but that's my opinion," Benchmark Co analyst Edward Atorino said.
Moody's did signal that growth in its Investors Service unit, which houses the bond rating business, is set to slow.
The company's forecast of full-year revenue growth in the high-single digit percent range for the unit compared with a 20 percent rise in 2012.
Revenue from structured finance — the rating of complex bonds such as collateralized loan obligations and commercial mortgage-backed securities — is expected to grow in the mid-single digit percent range for the full year.
The complicated debt structures were blamed for magnifying the chaos caused by the souring subprime mortgages and issuance fell after the crisis.
But as the consumer and auto loans are increasingly being bundled into securities in the United States, the fortunes at the business are turning around.
U.S. structured finance revenue grew 50 percent in the fourth quarter. Revenue rose 33 percent to $754.2 million.
Net income in the quarter rose to $160.1 million, or 70 cents per share, in the fourth quarter, from $96.2 million, or 43 cents per share, a year earlier.

Invalid Embed directive in stylesheet
On a few occasions now, for no really apparent reason, suddenly our Problem Pane will be spammed with tons of messages all sort of looking like this:
Invalid Embed directive in stylesheet - can't resolve source 'Embed(source = "/assets/common.swf", symbol = "AccordionHeader_disabledOverSkin")'.
In the past, sometimes it would only happen on a mac, other times windows machines. I've tried deleting my bin folder, cleaning the project, recompiling the swf's, moving the swf's around, changing the syntax in the css ever so slightly. I've googled this on many occasions and found no clear answer. Today I decided that I needed to know what caused this and if in fact I figured it out, to share it with you.
What ended up being the root cause of our problem is that in several places in the application we were referencing image assets directly in our assets folder, i.e. /assets/delete.png, which is often the case when our designers aren't keeping up with asset creation and developers just throw some image up as a placeholder for the time being. Now it just so happened that ONE of these references was incorrect and its Embed pointed to a file that did not exist. I discovered this when I commented out our style css references in the application, and saw the error only then. It was this broken reference that caused the above error. I fixed the reference to point to the right file, did a Project clean, and all the Invalid Embed Directive errors went away.
I should note that we had over 100 references to symbols in our css, and by default Flexbuilder only shows the first 100 errors. Unluckily the "unable to resolve 'assets/deleted.png' for transcoding in ...." was error number 138 and did not show up in the list. I had to change my preferences to show all 138 errors.
So the lesson learned is that when you get spammed with this error, it could well be that only one Embed tag somewhere in your app is actually broken, and that your css and swf is probably just fine.

Ah yes, I almost forgot.theCryptofishist wrote:I'm ashamed of you all! Paul was railroaded!
Next you'll be claiming that after the burn he did something really crazy and dangerous, like, um, um, maybe, um, setting fire to a Cathedral in large metropolis. And not even after he got out of that crazifying prison!
From the news website SFGate, October 30, 2007:
"The man accused of setting the Burning Man on fire four days early has been arrested for planning to set Grace Cathedral ablaze, San Francisco police said Monday.
Paul David Addis, 35, was arrested on the cathedral steps at 11:40 p.m. Sunday after officers were tipped off that someone intended to set fire to the Episcopal church, police spokesman Sgt. Steve Mannina said.
Addis was wearing an old ammunition belt that carried small explosives, Mannina said. He was booked on suspicion of attempted arson, possession of an incendiary substance, possession of explosives and possession of explosives with intent to terrorize a church."
Apparently he was allowed to plead guilty to a lesser charge.
Whatever demons drove him to all this, he is rid of them now.
Good on you Dontflipmejack for owing up to your mistake.

Watch in stainless steel, white lacquered dial with roman numerals, stainless steel bracelet
The "secret signature" of Reflet, symbol of authenticity, appears through a simple breadth on the sapphire glass of the watch, revealing the silhouette of the Vendôme column, before quickly disappearing without a trace...To wear the Reflet watch is a bit like bringing Paris everywhere with you and highlighting its iconic symbol.More detail
In 1785, Rousseau, the watchmaker, invented a new kind of sundial featuring a canon topped by a magnifying glass that was placed in the sun's path, in perfect alignment with the Parisian meridian. This instrument gave the exact time at 12 noon. The dial, at first located in the gardens of the Palais Royal, sent a daily reflection of sunlight into Frédéric Boucheron's first boutique, situated under the arches of the gallery.
The base of the sundial bore the following inscription "Horas non numero nisi serenas" – "I count only the joyful hours". Fascinated by this unique approach to time and to life, Frédéric Boucheron decided to adopt the motto as his own. The Maison's first creations are inspired by this: Frédéric Boucheron wished to be the watchmaker of "Joyful Hours" and through this vision created watches that celebrate life's special moments.

We wrote about the incredible story of Army Captain Joshua Mantz in "Mantz on a mission." Captain Mantz was patrolling in Bagdhad with the First Infantry Division on April 21, 2007, when he was hit by an armor-piercing bullet that killed Staff Sergeant Marlon Harper. Part of the same bullet that killed Sergeant Harper then exited, hit Captain Mantz and severed Mantz's femoral artery. Captain Mantz bled out and went into a flatline condition for 15 minutes.
What happened next to Captain Mantz is something like a miracle, related by Thom Shanker in a New York Times At War blog post. Shanker also filled readers in on the story of Captain's Mantz's recuperation at Walter Reed and his return to service in Iraq with the same unit he was leading at the time of his injury.
On Fox News this past spring, Captain Mantz discussed the mission he feels he was saved to perform. Captain Mantz seeks to help get assistance to soldiers struggling with the emotional and psychological aftereffects of battle and injury. No funding for centers devoted to helping soldiers with such issues has been provided to fill a recognized need. He wants to do something about it. Shanker concluded his report with this view of Captain Mantz at Fort Riley alluding to his mission:
Captain Mantz currently is assigned as aide-de-camp to Brig. Gen. David C. Petersen, the deputy commanding general of the First Infantry Division at Fort Riley, and is expecting to return to Iraq as a company commander early next year. In the meantime, he has decided to tell his story as often as anyone will listen.
A few weeks ago, Fort Riley hosted a counseling session for spouses and parents of those killed in combat. Captain Mantz was approached by a mother whose son had been killed by a high-powered improvised explosive. She said the explosion had severed both of his legs at the waist, and she had been tormented wondering what her son, a hard-charging, type-A personality, had felt and thought in his last moments.
"The question that bothered her for the last three years was, 'I wonder if my son lost the will to live because he knew his legs were gone and knew he couldn't walk ever again. I wonder if he gave up.' I was able to look her straight in the eye, and tell her that I used to think the same thing. I used to think that I'd rather die than lose a limb in combat. But as soon as I was shot, that thought went completely out of the window. I couldn't have said to the doctor fast enough, 'Take my leg! I'll figure the rest out later!' As I answered her question, I could see it in her eyes that I gave her a little bit of closure. And that was a question that only I could answer."
While others ask him questions, there is one he asked himself: Why am I still here?
"I never thought I'd get an answer to that question until that mother walked up to me that day," Captain Mantz said. "Your experiences are valuable in ways you may not realize yet. I strongly encourage you to talk about them. You'll never know who you're going to help."
My friend Major Peter Swanson put us in touch with Captain Mantz last spring. This morning Captain Mantz wrote to update us:
The Defense Center of Excellence's Real Warriors Campaign just released their latest video based on my experience. The purpose of Real Warriors is to reduce the stigma associated with seeking help for emotional injuries. This video will be played nationally across various venues. I invite you to view the video at the link provided below, and share it with anyone you think could benefit from the message .
I'm sure we can all benefit from the message and know others who can as well. Here is Real Warriors. Here is the Real Warriors video on Captain Mantz.

Cotton seed breeding must improve It will take an immediate renewed public breeding effort to attack the problem of stagnant cotton yields and decreasing fiber quality, cotton producer Jack Hamilton of Lake Providence, La., told growers attending the 2001 Beltwide Cotton Production Conference.
According to Hamilton, the U.S. upland cotton yield average has varied between about 500 and 700 pounds per harvested acre over the last 20 years. The low during this period was 580 pounds per acre in 1983 and the high was 780 pounds in 1994.
"Clearly a significant problem exists with current cotton yields," he says. "In recent years, yields have become increasingly variable and highly unstable. In addition to stagnant and volatile yields, the quality has deteriorated as well. This is a double whammy for producers who are struggling to stay afloat financially before they receive the discounted prices, without realizing any offsetting yield increases."
The two qualities of cotton that have shown the most decline and are causing the most problems for producers and textile mills, Hamilton says, are micronaire and staple length.
Over the last 10 years, the average micronaire of U.S. cotton has both fluctuated from year to year, and continued to steadily increase. "The implication for producers is that a larger portion of production is now falling in the higher micronaire range and is either receiving no premium or is being discounted for being too high," Hamilton says.
A similar but opposite trend is occurring for staple length, which has been stagnant to lower over a 10-year period. The last three years are of the most concern, Hamilton says, because the trend has been sharply lower. "This has really impacted producers and is hitting our pocketbooks because there is a significant price discount for short staple cotton."
"The area I am from in northeast Louisiana has also seen short staple lengths over the last few years. In the 22 crop years since 1979, there have been only five years in Louisiana where the percentage of our crop with a staple length below 1-1/16 inches has exceeded the double digits," he says. "These years were 1980, 1991, and the last three years - 1998, 1999 and 2000. In fact, in the last two years over 36 percent of our crop have had a staple length below 1-1/16 inches. The average for the other 17 years was 2.2 percent of the crop with a staple length below 1-1/16 inches."
Although weather information for these years tends to indicate rainfall and temperature had a great effect on staple length, it's obvious varieties also played a big part, Hamilton says. "The first and foremost reason for cotton yield and quality problems is a definite lapse in cotton breeding efforts. Where, in the past, cotton variety work was often done by private companies in the public interest, it is now primarily in the hands of major chemical companies. Their main interest of course is to sell chemicals, not to develop outstanding cotton varieties."
Another reason for the downtrend in quality and yield, according to Hamilton, is producers' request for shorter-season cotton varieties. Producers have asked breeders to develop shorter-season cotton in order to decrease both input costs and the chance of detrimental weather. However, he says, today's cotton varieties tend to be more determinant and less able to overcome weather extremes during a compressed growing season.
The third factor, Hamilton says, is the inability of genetic engineers to translocate genes into the popular varieties. "These engineers translocate the genes into Coker varieties and then backcross into the more popular varieties, but some of the plant material may remain and this could be causing part of our problem."
The answer to the double-edged problem of yield and quality, he says, is to immediately regenerate the public breeding program. "Many of our land grant colleges and universities have cotton breeders in their research and Extension departments. Additionally, the Agricultural Research Service with USDA has always had cotton breeders on staff. We feel that this breeding work is not being coordinated among the different researchers and the results are not reaching the commercial cotton farms in this country.

The list of people to notify in an emergency can be lengthy. There's Mom, Dad and the rest of the family, not to mention your significant other, best friend and other VIPs. Oh, and emergency services, naturally.
Newly launched app Proteg-Go aims to streamline the process. For $1.99 to download and $1.99 per month, users have access to a 24/7 call center that relays their problem to emergency services and also sends text alerts to up to 15 preselected phone contacts. Users can choose from 13 emergencies, ranging from a variety of natural disasters to robbery and assault, to medical issues. You can personalize an alert with extra details, and decide who (including emergency services) should get a call, says a spokesman. That conserves battery life while the power is out, and limits time spent notifying others in a crisis. Once you're safe, another button in the app sends an all-clear to the same list of contacts.
Subscriptions can be cancelled or restarted at will, says the spokesman — the company anticipates some users will sign up only when traveling, for example, or just for hurricane season.
Your first call should still be 911, says self-defense expert Steve Kardian, a retired New York City police officer. Emergency services prioritize requests, and the detail you can provide in a phone call would give them more to go on when deciding where to send personnel first. Plus, factors like a slow cellphone data connection could waste precious minutes getting help.
Senior consumer reporter and "Deal of Day" columnist Kelli B. Grant travels to Las Vegas to find the best, the worst, and the most hyped gadgets at this year's Consumer Electronics Show. Join her as she roams the exhibit floor for three days, with dispatches here and on Twitter @kelligrant.

5.0 Mustang & Super FordsHow To Tech Qa
Tech Questions and Answers - March 2014
Which Cam Would Be Better Than The Stock One...?
Shock's Tubes
Q The Oct. '13 issue Project Shocker article states: "...we determined that we could not convince the Windsor-swap headers to fit." I have a similar project in the works—a '93 Mustang with 351 Windsor and Dynamic Trans C-4 mated to JW Ultra-Bell, along with a TCI trans-shield.
I have been trying to figure out what headers to use. I'm wondering what specific issues were encountered and which brands were actually tried. Initially I thought this would be a common enough setup that it would be easy to find what works. At this point, I would really appreciate learning what you've discovered will not work.
Jeff Blanchard
Lowell, IN
A Sharad Raldiris says there were several components that affected header fitment for his Project Shocker LX. "First, the UPR Products K-member has two slots for the motor mount studs. We used the rear slots which placed the Windsor block closer to the firewall. Our 7-quart Moroso oil pan required using stock-height motor mounts in order to clear the steering rack, rather than the drop-style mounts that are commonly used with Windsor swaps (to improve hood clearance). Lastly, our Trick Flow High-Port CNC cylinder heads feature exhaust ports that are raised 0.750-inch over the stock port location.
"These factors likely placed the exhaust ports higher and farther back than their typical location in a Windsor-swapped Fox Mustang. After several hours of modification, we were finally able to physically bolt our Windsor-swap headers to the cylinder heads. However, it unfortunately was impossible to install the steering shaft at that point, so we opted for custom-fabricated, stainless-steel headers from Tig Vision Welding."
Cam Slam
Q I need some help with putting together the right components for my '91 Mustang GT. The car currently has a stock 302, and I have GT-40P heads that I'm going to have ported. Which cam would be better than the stock one? Also, what spring kit should I run? I also have BBK long-tubes, Flowmasters, a GT-40 intake, and I'm adding a 65mm or 75mm throttle body and a bigger mass air and injectors.
Any help or information would be great. I love the magazine, just please keep doing Foxes and some stuff that the average guy can do and afford. Thanks.
James Gulley
Morristown, TN
A Consider using Comp Cam's Xtreme Energy XE270HR hydraulic-roller camshaft (PN-35-324-8; $297.78), dual valvesprings (PN 987-16; $94.82), and a set of 1.7-ratio rocker arms (PN 1450-16; $169.29) for your 'Stang's GT-40P/GT-40 induction setup. The cam is designed for standard-bore 5.0s with the mods that yours currently has or will have (heads/intake, larger throttle body and mass airflow sensor), and it will work well within the combination's 1,800-5,800 rev parameters.
Q I'm running a 347 stroker in my '87 Fox with a Comp Cams roller cam, GT-40 heads, and BBK short-tube headers, I need to know what oxygen sensors to use. Please help.
Kulpmont, PA
A Based on the modifications you describe, installing a set of aftermarket wide-band O2 sensors is a great addition for helping you accurately tune your '87's stroker. The engine's additional cubic inches, intake/exhaust-air improvements, and power adder (if you ever install one) necessitate being able to see a broader air/fuel range than the OEM narrow-band sensors' 14.5:1-to-15.0:1. The wideband sensors allow you to keep tabs on richer and leaner ratios (from approximately 9.0:1-to-20.0:1) that come about through engine upgrades, and calibrate accordingly to ensure air/fuel is perfect.
There are several wideband O2 sensor-and-gauge packages that work well with modified 'Stang engines. Innovate's standalone, wideband O2 and gauge kit is a system we tested a few years ago. The setup features the popular Bosch five-wire O2 sensor, as well as Innovate's LC-2 wideband controller and 21⁄16-inch G3 analog gauge. Once installed, you'll find having such an accurate air/fuel reading to be invaluable for properly dialing-in your engine's performance nand efficiency.
Smooth Steering
Q My '90 LX has almost 200,000 miles. The car runs remarkably well for its age and mileage, but the suspension and steering do feel sort of loose. The main problem is there's quite a bit of play and sloppiness in the steering wheel, but I can tell the issue isn't with the rack-and-pinion or the power-steering pump. I'm looking for an affordable way to repair the actual steering shaft, as I have pinpointed the problem to the rag joint/knuckle. However, I really want to avoid paying more than a hundred bucks for a new steering-shaft assembly. Can the stock system be rebuilt?
Name Witheld

A Yes, you can rejuvenate the factory steering gear without having to purchase a replacement steering shaft, OEM or aftermarket. Latemodel Restoration (www.latemodelrestoration.com) offers a bolt-in rag-joint set for about $10 (PN DOR-31000). The LMR rag joint features a new, thick rubber disc that serves as a dampening coupler for the steering shaft and will restore solid steering performance to your LX. Once the rivets that secure the original isolator are removed (this is probably the most labor-intensive effort in the entire project), the new piece installs in only a few minutes, using the supplied hardware and basic tools.

TV Time
Q Do I have to run a TV cable for my AOD transmission, or can it be left off? My car is a '95 GT with a 331. I just had the transmission rebuilt. If I have to keep the cable, how do I make sure it's adjusted right?
Ryan Hoestellar
Silver Spring, MD
A First and foremost, yes, you have to maintain the TV cable, as it basically controls fluid pressure in the transmission's valvebody and modulates each shift's timing (at a specific engine rpm) and quality (firmness). To adjust the cable, attach it to the throttle body linkage while the transmission is in Park, and adjust it until there is no slack whatsoever. This is the best procedure for establishing base shift points for your AOD. When you choose to raise the shift points, simply make the TV cable tighter.

Second-Half Shooting Sends Wabash to Loss at OWUby Brent Harris • January 26, 2011 Share:
A cold-shooting second half by Wabash and a stellar effort by Ohio Wesleyan's Tim Brady sent the Little Giants to their third loss in North Coast Athletic Conference basketball play with an 87-76 road defeat Wednesday night.
Wabash entered the game ranked eighth in the nation in field goal defense, but surrendered 36 points to Brady while he and his Battling Bishop teammates hit 28-of-60 shot attempts for 46.7 percent. Brady fired baskets from outside and inside, finishing with a game-high 36 points in a winning effort for OWU.
The Little Giants had no problem scoring in the first half, taking a five-point lead thanks to 18 baskets on 35 attempts. Wabash connected on 8-of-15 shots from 3-point range in the opening period, but cooled in the final period. The Little Giants could manage just nine baskets over the final 20 minutes, with five of the nine coming from Wes Smith (above left). The senior guard finished with 29 points to lead Wabash in scoring.
Ohio Wesleyan (11-8, 7-3 NCAC) scored the first six points of the second half to take a 46-45 edge before Wabash regained the advantage, stretching its lead to eight points with 13:44 left to play. The Bishops rallied with a 17-3 run over the next seven minutes to move in front by six. Vaughn Spaulding capped the run with a 3-point basket from the left side, finishing with six key points over the final six minutes for OWU.
Wabash would get as close as five points in the closing minutes, but was forced to foul after several missed shots. The Bishops would finish the game by connecting on 11-of-13 free throws in the final 1:24 to score the upset over the 11th-ranked Little Giants.
Aaron Zinnerman added 13 points for Wabash, which dropped into a tie for third in the NCAC standings with OWU with the loss. Marshall Morris scored 15 points for OWU, while Andy Winters tossed in 10 points and eight assists.
Smith's 29-point effort sent him past Mike Crnkovich and into fifth place on the Little Giants' all-time scoring list with 1,642 points.
Wabash (15-3) will try to regroup Saturday afternoon with a home contest --- the first in five games for the Little Giants. Tipoff at Chadwick Court is set for 3 p.m. Fans are asked to bring a non-perishable food item to support the Montgomery County FISH Pantry program. The Little Giants' all-time scoring leader, All-American Josh Estelle, will be inducted into the Wabash Athletics Hall of Fame at halftime.

Isn't it a HIPAA to post the whole story and the scans even without names?ReplyDelete
- Anonymous11/22/2008 11:53 AM
sorry - should have previewed - I meant HIPAA violation.ReplyDelete
Anon 1:23,ReplyDelete
I know it's still up at MedPage. I asked them to delete it also, but I guess they're gone for the weekend.
Yeah, I could redact and repost it, but given that it was a serious error, I'll go the extra mile to show good faith. Maybe I'll revisit the topic in the future.
Anon 11:52,
No, it's only a violation if protected patient-identifying information is disclosed. Scalpel had a decent primer on the topic a while ago. Also, this story, like every one I post, is highly fictionalized to protect patient privacy. The incident patient would not recognize themself. Well, if I hadn't left the name on one of the images.
So it would only be a maximum $50,000 fine and one year imprisonment if you hadn't posted it to Medscape (who pays you to blog about interesting stuff).ReplyDelete
Per Section 1177(b)(3) since you used individually identifiable health information for commercial advantage, personal gain, or malicious harm, that means you could be fined not more than $250,000, imprisoned not more than 10 years, or both.
That's one of the reasons I don't have advertisements on my blog.
Way to cheer a dude up, Scalpel!ReplyDelete

Hi ShadowFax,ReplyDelete
As your friendly neighborhood privacy fanatic who is not a health care professional, I notice and appreciate that you're showing caution now.
We can only make our choices now, yes? So now you take action to meet both the spirit and the letter of the deal between docs & patients. Thank you.
Given the first offense and the apology and all, he's probably only looking at a couple of years and 100K fine max.ReplyDelete
That should cheer him up! Hehehe.
I'll bring you a cake with a file in it, and you can crash on my couch if you're a fugitive from justice, Doc.ReplyDelete

This whole blog is one big ole HIPPA violation. The identity of several of your patients has been obvious from news stories about them and your identity took me 2 google searches to find. I cannot believe the risk management at your hospital lets you get away with this BS.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous1/12/2009 11:37 PM
You say Scalpel had a decent primer on the topicReplyDelete
If it is known that a physician, nurse, or other healthcare worker practices at a certain facility, for example, then the second requirement seems to be violated.
You don't quite make the grade according to Scalpel's criteria. Its was obvious from one of your posts about a patient exactly what hospital in what metropolitan area you practice at. You mentioned a case that would obviously have been mentioned in the papers. I did a quick google because I couldn't believe someone would be so reckless as to mention it. Then when I found the article I google again to find the name of the group that covers the ER and one of the docs matches the bio and profile for shadowfax practically word for word.
Anon (Anons?),ReplyDelete
You need to let it go. You're not the first person to deduce my identity, and indeed, I've been cited by name in national publications. The name stays off the blog, but it's hardly a secret.
And don't make too many assumptions about the veracity of my posts. I fictionalize, liberally. I omit many facts, alter others, invent some -- all to obscure the patient ID as well as to make a point or to make a better story. Further, some of these posts are patients I did not even see -- they are second-or-third hand tales of the ER. They're good stories nonetheless, and whether they are exactly true or not, they give a good view into my world, which is what I am trying to communicate. So don't get to wrapped up in the HIPAA stuff -- half if what you read on this blog is bullshit. Trust me, I know the author, and you can't believe a word he says.
Anyway, I have had half a dozen lawyers/compliance officers review this blog, and they all agree that I am on the right side of the law to this point. So I got that going for me, which is nice.
I know your heart's in the right place, though, and thanks for keeping me honest.

Best Hanbok: Sandra Oh
If you've been to a Korean wedding, you've likely seen a Hanbok – the traditional ceremonial dress modified here for a Hollywood awards show. LOVE it. Not so much her hair…but am all over her bringing a little culture to the carpet, especially in advance of Lunar New Year celebrations.
It will be the Year of the Earth Rat…are you ready?
Major cleaning this weekend, get a set of new sheets, and remember, don't wash your hair on February 7th!

text: Despite what you've heard, Belgium isn't all about chocolate and beer. The well-rounded country also touts an impressive array of medieval time-warps, ornamental Art Nouveau, and passionate freedom fighters. Brussels is a must for its quirky Comic Strip Art Center, gothic architecture, and dizzying selection of monuments and museums. The Flemish town of Ghent is a fairytale-like maze of canals, best explored by boat. You can practice your French in Wallonia, hunt for antiques or diamonds in Antwerp, and pamper yourself in Spa, the home of Europe's oldest health resort. There are more castles per square mile in Belgium than any other country in the world. For bibliophiles, the mind-boggling Castle of Beloeil has a library containing nearly 20,000 books. Freedom fries, or frites, are a cultural staple so order up, and don't forget to ask for a side of mayonnaise.

'X Factor' terrific twosome Britney Spears and Simon Cowell hit 'The Tonight Show With Jay Leno' to talk about how their mutual makeup artist helped get Brit Brit to take the judging gig. Blah blah blah, right? We've heard this story before. What was really interesting about this delightful duo was their open discussion of their quirks, like Brit Brit's disdain for socks and the fact that Cowell wants to be cryogenically frozen and had a medium assess the vibe of his home. No, seriously!
Brit looked adorbs with her new bangs. They are youthful and recall her earlier days of pop divadom. She also revealed that she hates socks and never wears them, even when she's got boots on.
"I don't like the feel of it," she said. She even claims that she doesn't have to deal with her feet chafing or all the other nonsense that comes with self-imposed sockslessness, like blisters. But let's hope for the love of God that the girl uses Odor Eaters.
Brit loves to chew ice, and she prefers it to be of the shaved variety. "Sometimes I like big chunks," she confessed. I like grinding my teeth," she said. She has got to have a good dentist since chomping ice isn't always the best thing for your meat cutters.
Cowell talked about having his house examined by a medium and was told that his bedroom -of all places!- was the room with the most negative energy in the house. Go ahead, have a hearty chuckle at that. We did. It was his ex-girlfriend's idea to have this "procedure" done on the crib.
He also revealed that he wants to be cryogenically frozen since it seems like a safe bet and a low risk option when he dies. Have it it, Si Co!
Never a dull moment when these two get together for an interview on a late night gabfest or on breakfast or afternoon TV.

Items stolen include money, a watch and several other items. No arrests have been made in the case, but officers continue to investigate.

Michael Cuddyer said all the right things about coming to the New York Mets. He spoke of how the Mets were a team on the cusp; about playing with longtime friend David Wright; and the excitement of playing in New York.
For good measure, he mentioned how he imagined how a packed Citi Field could be when he referenced the 2013 All-Star Game.
Got you going, didn't it?
Then he ruined the illusion by saying "it always isn't about the money.''
But, I've been covering this sport a long time, and you've been following the Mets a long time. What we both know, is that when it comes to the Mets, money is right there at the top. Money is always the key factor.
The Cuddyer signing tells us a lot about the Mets and their financial situation. It also raises a lot of questions, which I'll attempt to answer:
Q: Why wouldn't Cuddyer accept the Rockies' $15.3 million qualifying offer and go the free-agent route again?
A: That's his risk. He wanted two and the Rockies were offering one. There was no guarantee Cuddyer would get a second year from anyone. When he gave the Mets a deadline to give him two years or he'd take the qualifying offer, "it gave us pause,'' said GM Sandy Alderson.
The Mets had things to consider, such as other free-agent outfield options, which would have cost more. Or, trade options, but they had few chips to play and are unwilling to include their young pitching. Or, going from within, which they didn't have the confidence in doing. And, there was the matter of losing the draft pick, which they didn't want to do.
The most palatable option was giving Cuddyer two years.
Q: The breakdown is the first year for $8.5 million and the second year for $12.5 million. What does that mean?
A: In giving up their first-round pick – the 15th overall selection – the Mets also save themselves $2.5 million. Given that, the Mets will have filled their outfield hole for $6 million this year, which is $1.25 less than they blew on Chris Young last year. They don't get their pick, but that player is at least three years down the road anyway. A lot can change in that time. With the $2.5 million they save by not having the draft pick gives them a little more flexibility.
Q: Won't the Mets feel a pinch in 2016 for the $12.5 million they'd pay Cuddyer?
A: They could, but not if they make the strides they expect. Their gamble is they'll improve enough in 2015 and experience an attendance spike. That will pay in part for Cuddyer. Of course, that means they'll have to win this year, or at least "play meaningful games in September.'' But, if none of this happens by July 2016 and Cuddyer is productive, he shouldn't be hard to trade.
Q: Was this done to appease Wright?
A: That probably factored into it, but I wouldn't say that was their first priority.
Q: What does signing Cuddyer say about their bench and minor league system?
A: For one, is tells me they likely won't bring back Eric Young. It also speaks to their diminishing confidence in Matt den Dekker and Kirk Nieuwenhuis as a fulltime player. The Mets stunted their development last year and that figures to be the same this year.
Q: The Mets kept saying they wanted power, but Cuddyer has hit only 80 homers over the past five years (16 average) and only ten in an injury shortened 2014. Does this fill that need?
A: No. Cuddyer isn't strictly a pull hitter, which is just as well because the fences aren't coming in next year. Presumably, he uses the whole field, which is the best way. Cuddyer has only one 30-homer season despite playing his career in the Coors Field and the Metrodome. He's only had one 100-RBI season as well.
Q: Were there other options?
A: Sure, but nobody screamed out as a "must have'' talent. Michael Morse, Ryan Ludwick, Nate Schierholtz, Nick Markakis and Josh Willingham were all available this fall, but would have either been too expensive; would stay with their original teams; or not graded as high as Cuddyer.
Q: Where will Cuddyer play?
A: Probably right field, with Curtis Granderson moving over to left field.
Q: Bottom line this for me: Does Cuddyer put the Mets over the top?
A: By no stretch of the imagination. The Mets have questions concerning shortstop; the offensive returns of Wright and Granderson; whether Lucas Duda can do it again; the development of Zack Wheeler and return from surgery by Matt Harvey. If all that happens and Cuddyer can return to his 2013 form when he won the NL batting title.

The only problem now is that as we use a proxy server to access the internet which also uses port 8080, since the install of ispconfig, I now can't seem to access the Internet. It shows an error saying that there is a temporary error accessing the internet. I assume it is to do with the port setting for both the internet and ispconfig Can anyone shed any light on how to reconfigure ispconfig to use another port such as 8081 to separate the ports used by internet and ispconfig? Could it also be that I need to creat an apt.conf file to reset the proxy setting. I'm only finding info out now about proxy settings as our filtering system filters out the word 'proxy' - I work in a school. Any assistance greatly appreciated. Declan

NEW YORK (Nov. 17, 2010) – The USA Bid Committee today announced the law firm of Latham & Watkins LLP as an official partner of the organization's efforts to bring the FIFA World Cup™ to the United States in 2022.
Latham & Watkins has been primary counsel to the USA Bid Committee, providing general corporate, tax, government affairs, intellectual property and other legal advice. Latham's involvement with soccer spans more than 20 years, with a long track record advising governing bodies, organizing and bid committees, and companies in connection with high profile soccer tournaments including FIFA World Cups and the Olympic Games.
"We appreciate all the work Latham & Watkins has done so far for the USA Bid and throughout the years supporting the sport of soccer," said Sunil Gulati, Chairman of the USA Bid Committee and President of U.S. Soccer. "We welcome them as a bid partner in the final weeks of our campaign."
Founded in 1934, Latham & Watkins has grown into a full-service international law firm with approximately 2,000 attorneys in 30 offices around the world.

He has also acted as counsel to Major League Soccer, LLC, the Division One soccer league in the United States.

HOUSTON — Dwight Howard would like the Orlando Magic to retire his old jersey number after his playing career ends.
Howard, who was upset last February when the team granted Tobias Harris' request to wear No. 12, played eight seasons for the Magic and led the franchise to three division titles and the Eastern Conference championship during the 2009 postseason.
His final season with the team was contentious, and it included his request to be traded.
This morning, after Howard's Houston Rockets completed their shootaround, I asked him whether he can envision the Magic retiring his number one day in the distant future.
"No doubt," he answered.
"Despite how things ended, we had eight or seven great years. We went to The Finals. A lot of those banners that are in the arena happened when I was there. I was a major part of that. A lot of the records that are there, I put them there.
"I hate talking about myself, but I feel like I've done a lot, not just for the team but the city and the arena itself and the businesses that were around. There's a lot of things that happened that didn't happen before I got there. Our team, we did an excellent job at putting all that stuff together, especially in the community. I was deeply embedded in the community and I feel like one day it should [be retired].
"But with all that happened, I can't control that. All I've got to do is win. And, hopefully, when I'm done playing here, I'll have my jersey retired here."
The Magic are celebrating their 25th season.
So far, the franchise hasn't retired any player's number, but it has retired No. 6, in honor of the team's fans, "the sixth man."
Howard holds the Magic's regular-season career records for the most points (11,435), most rebounds (8,072) and most blocks (1,344).
