Handsome "Penny" dressing up in style for his Tigers.
Memphis is a great town for sports and sports fashion is always a fun topic to cover. Many rules can be broken off the court in the name of team spirit. Face painting, clashing color combinations, and bizarre head decor are just a few. All of that and more are fair game when it comes to showing support. Don't be intimated by a little war paint or bright colors because it is always OK to be a loyal fan and to be proud of your team.
I always break my own fashion rules when it comes to cheering for the Tigers and the Grizzlies. Rarely do I wear a graphic t-shirt but I almost always do when it comes to Tiger games. I have my choice collection of fitted t's — "Our Coach Is Cuter than Your Coach," retro faded white and blue old school athletic font "Memphis Tigers," and my Final Four t-shirt which I still wear. These t's are mixed in with my blazers, fur vests, cardigans, and jeans and

either a Tigers sweat band, visor, or glitter baseball cap for good measure. For the recent Tennessee game, which the University of Memphis Tigers won 69-51 (special note — this is the second time this season the Tigers defeated the Vols) I wore my new Tiger blue stretch denim jeans — from Target — and styled them with my retro Memphis Tigers fitted t-shirt, tailored Theory blazer, sky-high black suede Prada boots, and Tigers sweatband across my forehead. The outfit suited me well and I screamed my head off the entire game. There was lots of great Tiger fashion there too, like sequined blue "M"'s blazoned across black t-shirts and men wearing blue and white dress shirts with suit jackets and jeans. The crowd was predominantly well-dressed. However, there were a few bright orange blazers and this look is always foul.
Much to my delight, there were sweatbands galore for the Grizz opening game on December 28th at FedExForum. The first few thousand fans received free yellow Grizz bands, but

ble support. Like I said, I wore mine also with all black but then had on my vintage bright yellow leather driving gloves that practically glow in the dark — perfect for Grizzlies games. We lost the game that night, but the crowd had winning style.
So, wear your team colors with pride and score some points by actually going out of "fashion bounds" so to speak. Game Day style is an awesome way to get a little creative and to stay looking good.

Risk Malaise Alert in Option Market: Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc Implied Price Swing Hits A Reduced Level
Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc (NASDAQ:SBGI) Risk Hits A Reduced LevelDate Published: 2018-01-25
Risk Malaise Alert -- Not How You Might Think:
Before we dive into any analysis we simply note that Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc (NASDAQ:SBGI) risk is actually priced pretty low by the option market as of right now. We'll detail it below -- but that's the lede -- the option market is reflecting a sort of risk malaise, for now, an IV30 of 33.28% versus the IV30 of the S&P 500 at 10.01%. The annual high for Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc IV30 is 50.96% -- and we're below that level. The alert here is low vol.
One thing to note beyond the risk malaise alert, which we cover in the article, is that while implied volatility may be low, the real question that needs to be answered for option sellers is not if the implied vol is low, but rather if the realized volatility that is coming in the next 30 days will be lower than the option market is pricing.
To skip ahead of this risk alert and see if buying or selling options has been a winner in Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc, you can go here: Getting serious about option trading.
This is a proprietary risk rating and risk alert system that looks forward for the next month -- or really 30 days to be exact -- and that includes weekends. The system is based on multiple interactions of data points, many of which come directly from the option market for Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc (NASDAQ:SBGI) . The creator of this model is Capital Market Laboratories (CMLviz.com).
In the "Why This Matters" section at the end of this article on Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc we're going to take a step back and show in great specificity that there is actually a lot less "luck" in successful option trading than many people know. The whole concept of an "option trading expert" is vastly over complicated and we'll talk about how superior returns are earned.
But first, let's turn back to SBGI and the company's risk rating:
We also take a peek at the implied vol for the Consumer Discretionary ETF (XLY), our broad based proxy for SBGI.
|Nasdaq 100 IV30
|SBGI Current IV30
|52 Week Low IV30
|52 Week High IV30
The risk as reflected by the option market has hit a reduced level relative to the company's past. The option market reflects a 95% confidence interval stock price range of ($36.10, $42.10) within the next 30 calendar days.
While the option market risk rating is on the low side, we note that companies in this situation are still susceptible to sudden stock move risk, it's simply the probability of that large stock move is depressed. Buyers of options and volatility may find these prices more attractive than at other times.
The IV30® is the risk reflected by the option market in the stock price for the next 30 calendar days -- it's forward looking. Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc shows an IV30 of 33.3%, which is a reduced level for the company relative to its past.
The option market for SBGI has shown an IV30 annual low of 29.0% and an annual high of 51.0%, meaning that SBGI is at the 20% percentile right now. Here's a table of the data before we dig into the risk rating further.
Current IV30
Low IV30
High IV30
The implied stock swing risk from the option market is significantly tighter in the next 30 calendar days for Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc (NASDAQ:SBGI) than it has been on average for the year.
We have an unusual situation now where the IV30 is substantially depressed relative to the past, but even with that risk pricing, the option market reflects the likelihood of more stock movement in the next 30-days than it has in the last 30-days. Let's turn to a chart to see what's going on.
Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc Risk Rating
The SBGI risk rating is at 2.5, where the rating goes from one (the lowest risk) to five (the highest risk). The driving factors for the 2.5 rating are:
↪ The IV30 is below the 20th percentile.
↪ The HV30 is below the annual average.
↪ The stock has moved +26.2% over the last 3-months which does indicate some elevated risk.

The conflict is often referred to as "The Forgotten War" because its veterans received little recognition, unlike those who served in World War II.
Bob Hawes remembers stepping into "no man's land" in October 1952 to warn his fellow Army combat engineers about a Chinese patrol barreling down on them, right before artillery shells pelted the area.
No man's land was the valley separating U.S. and Chinese troops near Triangle Hill, where one of the bloodiest battles of the Korean War was fought.
Saturday marks the 60th anniversary of the armistice that ended the war, which killed 36,574 U.S. troops and wounded another 103,000. The conflict is often referred to as "The Forgotten War" because its veterans received little recognition, unlike those who served in World War II.
But the sacrifices of the service members who fought there should never be diminished, say local veterans, who will recognize the anniversary Saturday at ceremonies locally and in Washington, D.C.
For Hawes, the war that began when North Korea invaded South Korea on June 25, 1950 could never be forgotten. He recalled the day when he warned the small group of fellow soldiers that a Chinese patrol was only a few hundred feet away. Artillery shells began to pound the area and most of the soldiers fled, leaving only Hawes and a lieutenant — every man for himself.
"I started to run back to our lines, and as I'm running all of the sudden I felt it was like somebody hit me in the back with a baseball bat, and I'm down on the ground and I'm crawling," he said.
Hawes survived, thanks to his flack jacket. "I got hit in the back with a piece of shrapnel that tore through a few layers of the jacket," he said.
The 79-year old South Daytona resident helped carry the dead and wounded off Triangle Hill, where 374 Americans lost their lives and 1,074 were wounded.
"There's not a day, not a night, when I get in my bed and I'm ready to go to bed, I'm back in Korea," he said.
The 60th anniversary of the Korean War armistice between the United States, South Korea, North Korea and China will be commemorated locally during ceremonies at 10 a.m. in Deltona at the Veterans Memorial Park and at 2 p.m. in a park across from the New Smyrna Beach Museum of History.
"The thing that people don't realize is that the Korean War was very, very instrumental in stopping the spread of communism throughout the Far East," said Ed Stepnowski, 83, a South Daytona resident who served as a combat intelligence solider in Korea from 1951-53.
Another local veteran, Bob Balzer, said he joined the reserves after serving in World War II and was called back to active duty once the Korean War began. Balzer's daughter was only about 18 months old, and his wife was pregnant with their son when he was shipped to Korea in September 1950.
"When I finally was discharged my son thought my dad was his father and it took a month for us to resolve this problem," said the 85-year-old DeLand resident.
Balzer said he lost a close friend in the Korean War — Jesse Harlow, who joined the Navy with him in 1944 and later switched to the Army. It made visiting the Korean War Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., several years ago especially emotional.
"As past state president of the Korean War Veterans Association, I can tell you that the veterans, men and women, of that war gave 100 percent and can be proud to have saved the nation of South Korea," he said.
Despite health problems, Daytona Beach Marine Corps veteran Tommie Mabe, 84, traveled to Washington, D.C., for events Saturday observing the 60th anniversary of the armistice. Mabe served 23 years with the Marine Corps — in Korea, Vietnam and elsewhere in Southeast Asia during the 1950s and 1960s.
"I'd like to pay respects to the people we lost, to be there to represent the boy that can't be there," he said.
He called the commemoration "a once-in-a-lifetime event." The events include a ceremony Saturday at the Korean War Veterans Memorial where veterans will be honored. President Barack Obama will be among the dignitaries addressing the group.
Hawes said the Korean people have never forgotten the sacrifice of U.S. soldiers during the war. Hawes said he still sees their gratitude 60 years later when they see him proudly wearing a cap identifying himself as a veteran.
"I don't wear it because of this, but you go into a restaurant and you sit down and have a meal, if there's a Korean person in that restaurant, he's going to come over and pay for your meal," he said. "The very least they'll do is come over and shake your hand said say, 'thank you for freeing my country.' "
Armistice events
Local ceremonies Saturday will commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Korean War armistice:
— 10 a.m. in Deltona at the Veterans Memorial Park, 1921 Evard Ave. For more info, call 386-956-5830.
— 2 p.m. in New Smyrna Beach across from the Museum of History, 120 Sams Ave. For more info, call 386-323-6401.

AMERICUS, Ga. – It was a homecoming on Homecoming for the Georgia Southwestern Lady Hurricane softball team on Saturday afternoon. Their season home opener on the school's Homecoming featured a doubleheader from in-state, and future PBC opponent, Young Harris College (3-1). The homecoming was bitter sweet for GSW as they would split games with the visiting Mountain Lions.
GAME ONE: GSW Lady 'Canes-7 Young Harris-1
The scoring action was fast and furious for Coach Ward and company as they would bring home four runners in the second inning alone to take a commanding lead of the game early on. The second inning's scoring action was punctuated by Hayley Knight, Jessica Chewning, and Mason Moreland all driving in runs.
Three innings later Katie Wooten would score on a fielder's choice, which she would follow up an inning later with a RBI of her own. Her run was supported by Ashley Cavender's run on Rachel McElroy's fielder's choice.
Young Harris would only score in the seventh inning as Jennifer Watford would drive in Emily Wilson to cut the lead to six runs at 7-1.
Jessica Martin would throw the complete game for GSW and only gave up one run . She battled to overcome five hits and eight walks but did strike out six batters to get the win.
GAME TWO: GSW Lady 'Canes-5 Young Harris-11
The Mountain Lions would seek revenge and do so with vengeance, but only after four innings. Georgia Southwestern would blow a 5-1 lead thanks to five total errors in the game.
A pair of two-run innings in the third and fourth put GSW up 5-1. The third inning was fueled by Avery Purser's two-run double, and YHC's Jennifer Watford's and Lauren Brooks's fielding errors. The four run lead would evaporate in the fifth inning thanks to a monster, eight-run inning in the fifth by Young Harris.
Two GSW errors let two of the first three YHC runners on base before two more GSW errors aided the Mountain Lion offensive explosion that saw five different batters record a RBI in the inning. The eight-run fifth put the game out of reach at 9-5. Young Harris would get two more insurance runs in the seventh to secure the 11-5 win.
Casey Burns would get the loss as she pitched four and a third innings giving up five runs with only one of them being earned. Burns line was a similar pattern for GSW pitchers who allowed eleven runs on the game with only two of them being earned runs.
Victoria Sink would get the win for Young Harris after relieving Lisa Wilson in the fourth inning. Sink would throw three and two third innings of scoreless softball while walking one and striking out one.
It is an immediate turnaround for Georgia Southwestern (3-5 overall) who will play their second double header in as many games on Sunday against Rollins College. First pitch is scheduled for 12:30 p.m.

On Monday 16 October 2017 the Council adopted the EU Annual Report on Human Rights And Democracy in the World in 2016.
2016 was a challenging year for human rights and democracy, with a shrinking space for civil society and complex humanitarian and political crises emerging. In this context, the European Union showed leadership and remained strongly committed to promote and protect human rights and democracy across the world.
Despite a four-day truce which was supposed to come into effect on Friday 26 October, fighting has continued to escalate in Damascus province, Aleppo, Idlib, Daara and Deir Ezzor in Syria manifested by a new wave of airstrikes by the Syrian forces and attacks by the rebels on strategic army checkpoints and air bases.
This week, renewed violence between Arakan Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims took place in Rahkin state in Myanmar, affecting an estimated 28,000 people. Sectarian violence between the two communities in June already left more than 75,000 people displaced.

With the release of the iPhone SDK, the iPhone now has epocrates running native on it, according to Mac Rumors.
The epocrates site implies that it's still a browser-based interface; maybe they just haven't updated the web site.
I use epocrates all the time. I used to use it on my Sony Clie (Palm OS), then on my BlackBerry Pearl, but I always found the sync features buggy and since our ER now has an EMR, I spend a lot of time at a PC workstation and so I just have the free on-line epocrates bookmarked. But it's insanely useful, and if it were available for the iPhone, and worked well, I'd go back to putting it in my hip pocket, even if that meant paying for it.
When I don't use epocrates, I get a lot of phone calls from bemused pharmacists, saying tactfully, "Doctor, you didn't really mean to prescribe this, did you? You know the more common dose is..."
Damn I want an iPhone. Five more months until my t-mobile contract expires, and hopefully by then the next-gen iPhone will be out, with the faster
EDGE 3G web browsing.
Five months.

I think you meant you are waiting for the faster 3G networking version of the iPhone. It's already on EDGE.ReplyDelete
And I hear ya, iPhone with epocrates native is very tempting.
Um, yeah, that's what I meant, the 3G network.ReplyDelete
Still haven't tried an iPhone. Did try an HTC Touch with Sprint, though; it works wonderfully for what it does. I returned it only because I don't use such devices for what they're intended, being smartphones and such.ReplyDelete
I'm also contracted through Sprint until 2010, so... yeah. So much for that idea. :x
I'm doing EXACTLY the same thing....Sprint contract is up...WANT iPHONE....Need native epocrates...3 months til SDK...Maybe as a graduation self-giftReplyDelete
Sorry, post call grammar.
Maybe it's good you're still under contract. My contract with Sprint ran out last month, and I've wanted an iPhone since they came out, but I'm afraid of buying one and having the 3G model come out immediately after. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Apple will introduce a new one this year and trying my best to wait until thenReplyDelete
3G is the most we can hope for, I don't think we'll see any drastic changes to the iPhone because they probably want to focus on making this SDK really high quality so that developers can make applications of similar quality.ReplyDelete
Also, I am envious of your 5 months. I have another 11 months of T-Mobile suckiness.
- Anonymous3/10/2008 10:37 PM
I'm dying to get my hands on a new Iphone; however, I can't justify the $500 purchase price. Hopefully by the time my contract with Sprint is up in 2009 they'll come down in price and have more storage capacity.ReplyDelete
Don't feel like the lone ranger. I want an iPhone too. They're just beautiful little design-gems that have everything I need and use right there, and they play videos and music and let you surf the web the way it actually looks, too. I mean, the Treo is nice, but damn. (I think my contract ends right around my birthday in October, which should work out very nicely.)ReplyDelete

VH1 will look at hip-hop's influence on culture with a four-part documentary, the network announced Wednesday.
Based on Steve Stoute's best-selling book, "The Tanning of America: How Hip-Hop Created a Culture That Rewrote the Rules of the New Economy," VH1's documentary will provide a visual history of "the hip-hopification of America" -- which Stoute coined in his book as "tanning."
The series, which falls under the network's Emmy-winning Rock Doc franchise, will be one-hour episodes that trace hip-hop as a cultural movement and its most pivotal moments of influence in music, film, TV, fashion, business and politics from its origins in the Bronx in the 1970s all the way to the White House.
Filmmakers Billy Corben and Alfred Spellman ("Cocaine Cowboys," "Broke,") have unearthed a wealth of never-before-seen footage from Russell Simmons cutting a deal with Adidas during a Run DMC concert, the Harvard dorm room where the Source magazine was started, Tommy Hilfiger driving around Harlem finding inspiration in baggy jeans, Mariah Carey collaborating with Ol Dirty Bastard and Dr. Dre hearing a kid who goes by the name of Eminem rap for the first time.
The series will also feature interviews with Stoute, Simmons, Hilfiger, Carey, Sean "Diddy" Combs, Dr. Dre, Will.i.am, Pharrell, Nas, Reverend Run, Rick Rubin, Fab 5 Freddy, Jimmy Iovine, Al Sharpton, Cory Booker, Brett Ratner, Brian Grazer, Ron Howard and more.
Stoute has worked as a record executive and is the founder of advertising agency Translation. He has also been responsible for brand deals for Jay Z, Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga, Mary J. Blige and Beyoncé. Stoute will serve as executive producer of the series.
"The Tanning of America: One Nation Under Hip Hop" will premiere in February on VH1.

6 Nights | BAJA MEXICO
About Ensenada, Mexico
You will visit the following 3 places:
Cabo San Lucas
Cabo San Lucas, commonly called Cabo in American English, is a city at the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula, in the Mexican state of Baja California Sur. Cabo San Lucas together with San José del Cabo is known as Los Cabos. Cabo is a varied destination that captures the essence of Baja Peninsula in its many resorts, championship golf courses, world-class dining and amazing outdoor activities. The city also houses a range of wildlife including rays, sharks, birds like eagles and a range of fish like mahi-mahi (dorado) and stripe marlin. For much of its history, Cabo was a sleepy, remote fishing port which was generally accessed either by ship or a three-hour drive from La Paz. In 1977, the airport to the north of San Jose del Cabo was expanded to handle jet aircraft and international flights, thereby launching the transformation of Cabo into one of the most popular resort destinations in Mexico.
Ensenada is a coastal city in Mexico, the third-largest in Baja California. Lying 125 kilometres (78 mi) south of San Diego on the Baja California Peninsula, it is locally referred to as La Cenicienta del Pacífico, "The Cinderellaof the Pacific''. One of the first settlements founded in the Californias, Ensenada has emerged as a cruise ship destination, aerospace center, and there is a nearby region to the north east where wine grapes are grown. Situated on the coastline of Bahía de Todos Santos—an inlet of the Pacific Ocean on the peninsula's Gold Coast—the Port of Ensenada is an important commercial, fishing, and tourist port. The city is home to a navy base, army base, and Ensenada Airport, a military airfield which doubles as an airport of entry into Mexico.

Hi, I was recently given $13 of relatively new cents (1960's to 2011). Most of them have green mold spots or major cases of the copper mold.
How do I get rid (clean up) this contamination. Does anyone have a home brew that will
stop the deterioration of the coins.
Thanx in advance
Green mold on copper coims

Re: Green mold on copper coims
If it's soft, then acetone. If hard, there is nothing you can do as it has chemically corroded the metal.

Women generally take many fewer financial risks than men, at all ages and within all ethnicities. They are simply much more risk-averse.
Thus the investment portfolios of women tend to be much more conservative in general and much more conservative with respect to their retirement savings than those of men. Couples, however, take on much more risk (at a level close to that of single males) than single women in similar circumstances would be comfortable with alone.
Sadly, this disparity makes sense since husbands disproportionately make household financial decisions. Fully 55% of husbands say they make the financial decisions and 45% say that such decisions are made jointly with their wives while only 4% of wives say that they make the money choices, according to one representative study. The financial world has a long ways to go in terms of gender equality, obviously.
To make matters worse, this disparity increases when times get tough. Men under stress are more likely to engage in risky behavior while women under stress tend to moderate their behavior.
These gender differences manifest themselves in a variety of ways. For example, women are far more likely to protect themselves with the purchase of long-term care insurance and income (immediate) annuities (which provide guaranteed income for life). Yet despite their obvious value, these products are by no means hot sellers and it isn't hard to comprehend why.
Nearly every experienced financial adviser can recount multiple instances of nervous and worried wives going along with their husbands' aggressive and often overly aggressive investment plans despite serious misgivings (one such story is offered by Wharton Prof. David Babbel here).
Financial insecurity is a particular problem among the elderly and especially among senior women. Nearly 22% of older women live in poverty. While it is possible that excessive investment caution is a cause of this poverty among senior women, an insufficient exercise of care — probably by male decision makers — is more likely a far bigger contributor to the problem.
That's because there is good evidence that, partly due to lower activity and thus lower costs, women investors achieve better investment returns than men overall, especially during crisis, and that women are far more likely to insure against the risks they face.
Risk aversion can allow an investor to keep a level head and make good decisions.
On account of demographics, male financial control and this gender disparity in risk tolerance has a disproportionate and unfortunate impact upon women. The average husband is 2.3 years older than his wife. Moreover, women at retirement age can expect to live about three years longer than men of the same age. Thus roughly half of all women aged 65 and above are widows and widows outnumber widowers roughly five-to-one.
The net result is that because of this risk disparity, male financial control and demographic realities, widows are frequently left in far riskier circumstances than they are comfortable with and are far too often left to bear the unfortunate costs of their late husbands' imprudent mistakes. These costs include poverty, becoming a burden to children and facing the bitterness that often emanates from those they are forced to rely upon.
Husbands who insist on taking more risk than their wives are comfortable with or who don't provide adequate insurance are a major threat to their wives' financial security. Husbands who really love their wives and want to provide for them ought to consider doing things a bit differently.
They can start by making sure that their wives are active participants in the family's financial decision-making and practice. And any spouse who is uncomfortable with what the other spouse is doing bears the responsibility of speaking up or risks being forced to live with the unfortunate consequences thereof.
Men and women are different. A good spouse takes those differences into account and acts accordingly.

A representative emphasized the need for flexibility in the expansion project's design and related regulations in order to develop the town center using creative techniques
For Butler Enterprises' envisioned town center for the Butler Plaza area, flexibility is key.
It was the buzzword Butler Enterprises representative Gerry Dedenbach, of Causseaux, Hewett and Walpole, returned to again and again at the city plan board's Tuesday meeting, where he presented proposed amendments to the city of Gainesville's comprehensive plan.
Dedenbach emphasized the need for flexibility in the expansion project's design and related regulations in order to develop the town center using creative techniques — a flexibility the amendments would be instrumental in achieving.
The board met Tuesday at City Hall to hear from Butler Enterprises and city staff on the requested amendments. It first approved Butler Enterprises' request for a land-use amendment that added 3.2 acres to the Butler Plaza Planned Use District, or PUD.
City staff recommended its approval because it would lead to better overall design for the expansion project, which centers on the creation of a town center near Archer Road. The town center would allow for interconnected retail combining big stores and small shops with more interesting architecture.
Board member Seth Lane recused himself from the Butler Plaza votes for professional reasons.
A representative who spoke on behalf of U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown, D-Jacksonville, emphasized her support for the Butler Plaza expansion, pointing out that it is easier to lobby for things like infrastructure aid if the project is already under way — a move Butler Enterprises needed the plan board's approval of its amendments in order to take.
Mitch Glaeser, chairman of the Gainesville Area Chamber of Commerce, also spoke in support of the project.
Deborah Butler, the head of Butler Enterprises, told the board she has visited many town centers gathering ideas for the design and layout of her own.
"My first message to you is that we are ready to go," she said. "We have done our homework."
Butler Enterprises' requested amendments to the comprehensive plan proposed shifting the town center closer to the intersection of Archer Road and 34th Street, as well as other alterations.
City staff advised several changes to the amendments, including maintaining a 20 percent open space requirement for all sub-areas except the town center, which it was fine with lowering to Butler Enterprises' suggested 10 percent level.
One board member questioned one of Butler Enterprises' changes, which would forgo a requirement that off-street parking in a particular area be kept to the side or rear of buildings along certain roadways and instead require the lots be screened to enhance pedestrian comfort and safety.
The board member wondered whether allowing parking lots to be placed at the front of buildings would give the expansion a shopping-center feel rather than a town-center atmosphere. Butler Enterprises representatives insisted it would not do so, but would offer the flexibility it needs as the project's retail plans evolve.
Butler Enterprises also requested the approval of a new planned development, or PD, for Butler Plaza regarding its expansion.
City staff suggested several recommendations, including requiring a main street in the town center.
Additionally, it advised the incorporation of an agreement between Butler Enterprises and the developers of Celebration Pointe — a large, mixed-use development that's in the works — that was reached during last week's Alachua County Commission meeting. The compromise, which was delineated in a letter to Gainesville Mayor Craig Lowe and approved by the commission, provided a way for Butler Enterprises to dedicate the right of way for Southwest 30th Avenue to the city earlier than originally planned. The right of way was related to the overpass for Interstate 75 that Celebration Pointe plans to build.
But Dedenbach said Butler Enterprises and Celebration Pointe met earlier this week and reached a compromise on the landing of the overpass in the Butler Plaza area, which had sparked debate between the two developers at the County Commission meeting.
Celebration Pointe can land the overpass on parcels of property bordering Butler Enterprises' land that it has purchase options on, and then it can connect it to the planned roadway network from there.
"Their plan can exist without conflict with ours," he said, pointing out that their joint solution rendered the earlier agreement regarding the right of way unnecessary.

DailyDirt: Lobsters -- Sea Food Different
from the urls-we-dig-up deptLobsters have an interesting culinary history. While these invertebrates are now generally considered an expensive meal for special occasions, they were once so plentiful in the northeastern US that they were a cheap food fed to prisoners -- and subsequently considered "cruel and unusual punishment" to be served as a daily meal. (Perhaps they just didn't have much melted butter in the 1800s...) But lobsters have re-gained their status as a luxury food item, and here are just a few interesting stories about these critters.
- An approximately 80-year-old lobster, named Larry and weighing 17 pounds, was saved from a fate of boiling water and butter by Don MacKenzie and released into the Long Island Sound. Larry's age was only approximate, but based on how many times he had molted, he's between 70-100 years old -- and probably wouldn't have been a very tasty meal anyway. [url]
- Getting lobster meat out of its shell can be messy, unless you use about 87,000 pounds of water pressure. Forget your nutcrackers. A water-filled pressure chamber humanely kills lobsters instantly and can cleanly separate every morsel of lobster meat from its shell. [url]
- Over the last few years, a bunch of strangely-colored lobsters have been caught. Blue lobsters, orange lobsters, white lobsters -- and even lobsters that are half one color and half another -- have been turning up more frequently. But they all still turn red after they're cooked, except for the white ones.... [url]

Academic Tech | Spotlight
This platform provides a free, easy-to-install digital commons site for colleges and universities (and others) to create spaces where members can discuss issues, collaborate on projects, and share their work. But it's also helping people keep control of their own content.
Though they all ultimately had the same employer, up until about four years ago, researchers and scholars working within the City University of New York system may not have known about each other, even if they worked worked in the same discipline. After all, the system has 24 campuses. So the institution created a digital commons space across CUNY where faculty members, graduate students, and staff could connect and collaborate across campuses. The CUNY Academic Commons currently hosts 561 unique groups; 4,912 active members; 1,111 blogs; and uncounted numbers of papers, documents, reports, news items and other creations generated by people who want to meet each other within CUNY, connect and share what they're working on.
So many people were "impressed" by the Commons and wanted to copy the idea for their own schools, the team behind the Academic Commons embarked on a follow-up project to create a "more abstracted version of it that would allow people to create something like it on their own campuses." Funded by an Alfred P. Sloan Foundation grant, the resulting application, Commons in a Box (CBOX), is open source and freely available. In its first year of availability the commons platform has been downloaded "something like 8,200 times," said CBOX project director Matthew Gold, who is also an associate professor of English and Digital Humanities at CUNY's New York City College of Technology and the Graduate Center.
Among the users: the Modern Language Association, the 30,000-member organization for scholars of literature and language; Arizona State University's Hieroglyph project, which brings together writers, scientists, artists and engineers to consider a "more optimistic future"; Advanced Computational Methods for Strongly Correlated Quantum Systems, a global network of researchers working in the area of high-performance computing hardware; and the students in "Engl 390," a digital humanities course offered last school year by English Professor Paul Schacht at the State University of New York Geneseo.
In other words, CBOX has drawn usage among academic groups, institutional organizations, individual faculty members and even non-profits.
"Our goal was to make something that was easy to install and easy to customize," said Schacht. "So we got the funding; we created the prototype; and we released the tool. To be honest, we didn't really know how it was going to be used."
What's Inside the Box
The out-of-the box functionality includes, among other features:
The platform was built on top of blogging software WordPress and WordPress social toolset BuddyPress. According to Gold, CBOX acts as a "plug-in manager" that aggregates the plugins needed for commons functionality. Since there are more than 500 BuddyPress plugins in the WordPress repository, CBOX selected the best ones to work within a commons community, such as plugins for file sharing within groups and for organizing content.
Gold insisted that installation of CBOX is "pretty easy." "If you can install a WordPress platform on your own server, you can get the CBOX up and running in just a couple of minutes." In fact, he added, it's almost "too easy." Some people get the communities up and running without much knowledge of HTML or CSS, which means CBOX does a thriving business in supporting its community of users.
Connecting Commons
For a next generation of CBOX, Gold said he sees three directions worth pursuing in the near future. First, the development team wants to figure out better ways to connect members to scholarship and let them share their work with one another more simply, such as auto-e-mailing alerts about new uploads of journal drafts posted by members and letting other members provide feedback.
Second, the team would like to create versions of the CBOX theme "tailored for specific communities." For instance, Gold offered, "What would a STEM version of CBOX look like? That might come with plugins you'd need for mathematical notation or a theme built so that it looks more like the kind of site that scientists might be interested in using. What would a teaching version of CBOX look like? Or what would a version specifically designed for non-profits look like? Maybe it would have special reporting tools that non-profits could use to report to their funders or members."
Third, the team is working on the idea of federation, creating relationships among various commons installations. In this area, CBOX is getting a boost by the MLA, which recently received its own grant from the Mellon Foundation to create a "Humanities Commons." This project will allow scholarly associations to network their commons for sharing information across those Web sites by addressing technical issues such as how to sync member databases with membership in a commons space. The CBOX team is participating with MLA and other organizations in developing a governance structure and support model for that work.
Maintaining Control over Community Platforms
Many of the plugins used by CBOX have been developed by the CBOX developers and released back to the WordPress and BuddyPress communities. "We're very proud to participate in the free software movement," noted Gold. "We believe that universities have a very important role to play in protecting the open Web."
In this regard, Gold said, he agrees with Jonathan Zittrain. Co-director of Harvard's Berkman Center for Internet & Society, Zittrain puts forth an argument in his book The Future of the Internet and How To Stop It that computing in a cloud-dominated Internet are steering us toward an ecosystem under the control of businesses pushing users into "black box" operating systems and apps and pulling us further and further from the World Wide Web's origins as an experiment in open connections.
"We want to ensure that we don't wind up in what [Zittrain] has called the 'appliance-sized Web,' where it's just all apps that we have no control over, where we're basically giving our content over to private companies that are mining that data for advertising or for who knows what," Gold explained.
For Gold, the digital humanist, CBOX is about more than making software available free to universities and other organizations. It's about giving people "control over their own means of instantiation." If people are using corporate-built proprietary solutions to communicate, share, and collaborate with each other, "I'd ask them to think about who owns their data, how their data is being used, and whether it wouldn't be in their interest and the interest of their institutions to really have more control over their own community platforms."

San Luis Obispo, Calif. -
Rob Friend broke the match open with a pair of second-half goals five minutes apart as the UC Santa Barbara men's soccer team defeated Cal Poly 5-1 in Big West Conference action on the rad Friday night.
Friend scored his eighth goal of the season in the 52nd minute off of a cross from Jaime Ambriz, then added his ninth goal in the 57th minute on a breakaway off an assist from Darren Doi. Friend's second goal made it 3-0 Gauchos.
Nate Boyden scored on a 12-yard shot off of a cross from Kevin Maffris, and Gene Deering tallied UCSB's final goal of the match with just six seconds remaining on a breakaway off of a Joe Hubay-Dies throw-in.
Cal Poly averted a shutout in the 77th minute when freshman forward Mark Jones scored his fifth goal of the season, a ten-yarder drilled off a corner kick from James Newton.
UCSB's first goal was scored by Dan Young off a corner from Tony Lochhead in the 25th minute.
With the victory, the Gauchos improve to 10-4-3 overall, 6-1-1 in the Big West. With 19 points, UCSB now leads UC Irvine by four-points. The Anteaters were held to a 0-0 tie by UC Riverside tonight, giving them an oerall 8-3-6 record, 4-0-3 in the Big West and 15 points. Cal Poly drops to 4-11-1 overall, 3-5-0 in Big West play.
The Gauchos close the regular season next weekend, playing at UC Irvine on Friday, November 16, and then at Cal State Fullerton on Sunday, November 18.

When the Grandkids come to dinner at my
house now and then, there's sure one
thing on which they all agree.
The kind of meat we have don't seem to
matter very much, as long as fried
potatoes they can see.
Cause every time I ask them what they
would like to eat, my fried potatoes
always top that list.
And Brad, my youngest Grandson, informed
me on the phone, how very much my
cooking they all miss.
Cause since they haven't eaten at my house
for a while, these fried potatoes
they don't ever get.
He said Mom's got my recipe and he can't
understand, why she has never
fixed them for him yet.
And the way he threw that hint at me
was really pretty neat, cause for
them I don't have a recipe.
And though he was quite subtle and of
course somewhat discreet, I still
got that big hint he threw at me.
So I must have them over to my house
very soon, and fix for them their
very favorite treat.
Though I too, try to stay away from fried
foods like their Mom, I can't resist
a subtle hint that sweet.

Hormone Therapy after Ovarian Cancer
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
I am 44 years old, and a 2-year survivor of Stage 1, grade 3 epithelial ovarian cancer (sporadic, as opposed to hereditary).
You wrote that hormone replacement therapy does not increase the risk for ovarian cancer, therefore, why does my oncologist NOT want me on any hormones?
Stephen C. Rubin, MD, Professor and Chief of the Division of Gynecologic Oncology, University of Pennsylvania Health System, responds:
There is no evidence that estrogen replacement therapy increases the risk of recurrence in patients treated for ovarian cancer, and most gynecologic oncologists do not hesitate to prescribe them, particularly in younger patients who are symptomatic.
That being said, there is fear in the primary care community with regards to breast cancer risk for patients on hormone replacement (as well as other health risks associated with it). The largest study looking at this is the Women's Health Initiative, but this study only found the risk to be associated with the estrogen and progesterone combination therapy. They did not find an increased risk using estrogen alone (used in women without a uterus). It comes down to an individual decision based on symptoms and length of use. Discuss your concerns with your oncologist and see if your case fits.

Got this on Friday at my work mail:
Please join us in praying for our Country on Aug 6th. I know that some of you do not live in the surrounding area of Houston or even in the State of Texas and cannot make it to the Reliant Stadium to join us in praying for our Country, so if you could stop on Sat. Aug 6th and pray several times that day, it would be just as good as if you were there praying with us.
God bless our Country. (more follows that was not her own)
I feel I can't leave well enough alone, but this being a (semi-decent) client, I'm not sure what to go with. Any ideas?
Views: 155
Please join me at a multi-angle economic and political research session. We hope to find an angle of attack which can help solve the grievous problems besetting our country. We implore you to aid us! We can't solve anything if we don't do anything. It's not as if we can just wish for everything to get better!
We'll be going through various texts from 6 AM on the 6th of August to around eleven when we'll break for lunch. At 1 PM we'll continue on for a few more hours and try to formulate a plan which will be sent to our local representatives.
Thank you for actually doing something useful to help your country!
If it's a client, perhaps you might want to suggest that you'd sincerely appreciate that all emails sent to your work account be entirely business related and that you appreciate their understanding and cooperation.
Or if you wanted to make beliefs known to them, simply thank them for their message but inform them you will be unable to participate as doing so would be a violation of your own personal beliefs.
A combination of the two is also an option.
I personally would delete the email and not respond. Really, what's the harm in asking others to participate in an activity that you have no personal interest in? They're meeting to whisper into their hands with the hopes that some non-existent, magic sky being will hear them and grant their collective wishes.
Pick your battles. This one doesn't seem worth it.
I agree with Rick. Delete the email. If they send a follow-up reminder, let them know that you would appreciate it if emails sent to your work address are strictly of a business nature.
I was about 90% sure that's what I would end up doing before posting this; wanted to see if someone had a more clever answer. Dylan's answer isn't too bad though. Perry has a record of failure as pointed out here, which if I were shooting from the hip, would reply with.
It almost sounds like you're wanting to get into something with this particular client. You don't need something clever, or an "I gotcha" moment. It's not a big deal. Just be professional. Sometimes the simplest solutions are the best. If you really feel emotionally invested for some reason, then you should consider letting it sit for a day or so with the hopes you can approach the situation from a more rational standpoint.
Eh, not really. She's someone I end up seeing maybe once every other month, if that. I'll probably just nuke it and move on with life. As much as I'd like to tell her "You do know Perry's just using you guys to cover up his incompetence and greed, right?" I don't think it'd take -- they're Beck fans, after all. Ugh.
Living in Mobile, AL and having a huge client base, I get messages from clients/customers that are similar in nature from time to time.
I have discovered that emails like this are the reason that god created the delete key.
Anything you say WILL be taken the wrong way.
Now, if you really don't want to retain them as a client....
"Anything you say WILL be taken the wrong way."

SAN LUIS OBISPO-Calif. - Tyler Weir shot a 2-over 218 but did not go low enough to help the UC Santa Barbara into the postseason, as the Gauchos finished in eighth place at Monday and Tuesday's Big West Championships at San Luis Obispo Country Club. Sitting in sixth place after a 295 in round two, the Gauchos limped to the finish with a 9-over 297 on the final day, ending the tournament at 33-over 897, two shots behind seventh-place Cal Poly.
UC Davis won the tournament, carding a final-round 284 for a three-under-par 861 total, seven shots ahead of UC Irvine, which had a final-round 289, and Pacific, with a final-round 286.
The Aggies' Austin Graham and Ramie Sprinkling battled for medalist honors in a playoff, after Graham's 69 and Sprinkling's 20 in the final round evened the pair at 3-under 213 through both days. Graham's second shot on the 18th hole rolled back to within two feet of the cup and he sank the birdie putt to win the playoff against Sprinkling, who settled for a bogey after his second shot landed in a sand trap.
Graham and Sprinkling finished one stroke ahead of four golfers who shared third place -- Scott Clayton and Andrew Patipaksiril of UC Riverside, T.J. Bordeaux of Pacific and Michael Im of UC Irvine.
Weir used solid rounds of 73, 72, and 73 to capture a tie for 12th place, playing the par-5's three strokes under par on the tournament. Weir played the front nine on the final day 2-under par, but had three bogies and no birdies on the back-nine to finish the Championship. He dropped 12 birdies in the tournament, fourth best in the field.
After an even-par 72 in the second round, Brian Hollenbeck shot 4-over in the final round, earning him a tie for 23rd place with an 8-over 224 . Hollenbeck ranked fifth best in the field on the par-3's, shooting just 2-over with the short sticks
Goleta-native Sean Bowman, playing in his first tournament since October, got off to an rough start, shooting rounds of 77 and 78, respectively. The senior found his groove in the final round, notching 11 pars on his way to a 1-over 73, good enough for 31st place at 12-over 228.
Aaron Sherry (+14) and Gunson (+18) rounded out the scoring for Gauchos.
None of the UCSB top-5 were able to score in red numbers in either of the three rounds, as the dry heat made for difficult playing conditions and hard, fast greens. The field averaged 74.33 strokes per round on the weekend, more than two strokes over par.
The NCAA regionals for men will be held at six sites, including the Lake Merced Golf Club in Daly City, on May 14-16 with the NCAA Men's Golf Championship slated for May 26-30 at the Inverness Club in Toledo, Ohio.

Accuracy in Media
September 30, 2010
As incredible as it may seem, the giant labor federation, the AFL-CIO, used to be run by a staunch anti-communist. George Meany had his disagreements with conservatives on domestic issues but he mostly agreed with them on foreign policy. Indeed, Meany was so anti-communist that he was dubbed a "right-winger" by liberals in the media. He criticized détente with the Soviet Union. He didn't like communists and refused to allow them into his coalitions.
All of this changed over time. When the AFL-CIO staged a "Solidarity Day" rally in 1981, in order to protest President Ronald Reagan's domestic policies, then-AFL-CIO President Lane Kirkland refused to tell communists they were not welcome.
When John Sweeney, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, became president of the AFL-CIO, the communists and their fellow travelers were officially welcomed in. He hired veterans of the Venceremos Brigades such as Karen Nussbaum and Karen Ackerman. These were the groups of radical young people who had gone to Communist Cuba for indoctrination sessions back in the 1970s. Some went for training in guerrilla warfare. The trips were arranged by Bernardine Dohrn of the terrorist Weather Underground.

Weekly Writing Update – 07/13/15
This is a really hard post to write. Recently, my anxiety lead me to lose my job. This lead to an extreme downswing in my depression. A lot of my self-worth is tied into how I can support myself, and it's very hard to have any self-worth at all, when you know you are the cause of losing your own job. I can't blame the work. It was exactly what I was told, and knew, to expect. All I can blame is this disease in my head that makes it impossible to pick up a phone without my heart beating terribly fast.
This should have been a triumphant month for me. I finally finished Knight of Kuryle, and I'm in the editing stage, before I can give it to beta readers. However, because of my downswing, I have had no energy for anything other than basic survival. There have been days where I cannot get dressed. There have been days I have eaten only one meal. My job search has turned up one part time, temporary position.
I have been plagued with doubts. How am I going to keep my apartment? How am I going to keep from inconveniencing those I care about? How am I going to get food? These are things that circle in my mind.
Word Counts:
First Book of the Kurylian Saga: 1.5 sections rewritten –
- Knight of Kuryle – 31,379 words – Draft complete – Editing started
Kaimi Rowe Series: Seeker Born – Rough Draft – Restarted w/new concept

Am I hearing some double talk from Gov. Sam Brownback? One side of his face is saying, "I will cut your taxes by eliminating the personal income tax." The other side says that in the mean time, "I will increase your taxes by eliminating some deductions."
If the income tax is eliminated, dropping these deductions will provide only short term relief and at a time when the common people don't need any more taxes.
You ask — is eliminating the deductions a tax? Yes. That will mean in effect these deductions will now be taxed. Anything we pay that goes to the government, including local entities, is a tax.
They may call it a utility franchise fee, such as the one they charge the cable company, but this "fee" goes to the government and is passed on to the cable customers and thus is a tax on us.
Sure they say some of these are "user" fees, but try not using it to avoid the fee. Drop your phone, mine is $1.99 per month. Drop your cable TV service, mine is $1.87 per month. Park your car, gas tax is very large number.
I know Topeka needs more funds, but they don't need to try to sneak it past us with smiles up front while their fingers are picking our pockets behind our backs. Cut spending somewhere or raise the income tax or sales tax up front instead of trying to deceive us.

Black Ops 2 PS3: patch 1.03 issued to prevent system freeze
Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 players on PS3 were recently experiencing console freezing while playing. Treyarch has now released a patch that should address the issue.
Eurogamer reports that Activision were aware of the problem, which occurred when players were attempting to enter a multiplayer public lobby. However since the patch has released, some players claim that the issue persists, and said in a new statement, "We are doing everything we can to get to the bottom of it as quickly as possible".
Meanwhile Black Ops 2 multiplayer continues to be brilliant but with a few flaws. Check out our full appraisal of the game's multiplayer below:

When You Die You Don't.
You have a clone with your backup memories. That is if you are rich enough or if you become a national hero by taking a bullet for the President. Rohnan Dooley is the later and the first to become Amortal . Now he returns to try to find out who murdered him but there is much more to the story.
Amortals is my first contact with Matt Forbeck's writing and I am impressed but not surprised by the tight and action packed story after reading his bio. Matt also weaves thought provoking questions about individuality and identity into the story. I am definitely going to add him to my to-read authors.
The main character Dooley has been long on the job. 200 years in the Secret Service is a long time and he is starting to have second thoughts about it. But if he retires he loses his Amortality. The investigation soon ties in to his previous lives and to his estranged descendants in a way that further highlights the issues with being immortal.
Dooley is a man of action but he is also a national hero and the figure head for the Amortal Project so his murder draws public interest. Patron, his boss wants the matter resolved as soon as possible. Amanda his partner obviously knew his former self which highlights the problem with skipping backup for three months since he have no memories of her or the investigation leading up to his own murder. Amanda is also mortal which leads Dooley to consider the worth of his own life compared to someone with only the one.
It is a fast paced and action packed story that touches on murder cults, old enemies, love, assassination attempts, cover-ups, hidden agendas and a bigger picture. Agent Dooley channels Bruce Willis in RED, Die Hard and Dirty Harry while he tries to finds out what really going on.
The characters are well done and remind me of stories that gave me the same kind of feeling for the characters like Flash by L. E. Modesitt Jr or The Puppet Master by Robert A. Heinlein.
There is no mistake behind that Amortal's spelling is so close to Amoral in my mind. This book isn't about the murder mystery. It is about the bigger picture. But it is still good action. It was a book hard to put down. I read it more or less in one go.
Amortals is a high concept techno thriller that has been a delight to read and I would like to highly recommend it both to thrill seeking and cerebral readers of science fiction.
Title: Amortals
Author: Matt Forbeck
Genre: Science Fiction
Paperback: 416 pages
Publisher: Angry Robot
Copy: Review copy from the publisher
Today you die. Today you are reborn. Today you hunt the man who killed you. It's Lee Child vs. Altered Carbon in a high-tech blast of tough-as-nails future thrills.
Matt Forbeck arrives as the new king of high-concept – with a blockbuster action movie in a book. In the near future, scientists solve the problem of mortality by learning how to backup and restore a persons memories into a vat-bred clone. When Secret Service agent Ronan "Methusaleh" Dooley is brutally murdered, he's brought back from the dead to hunt his killer, and in doing so uncover a terrible conspiracy.

No. 79,560
1. K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 44-501(c) unambiguously states that when an injury does not disable the employee for at least 1 week from earning full wages, the employer is liable only for the medical expenses.
2. K.S.A. 44-510(a) states it is the employer's duty to provide the services of a health care provider as may be reasonably necessary to cure and relieve an employee from the effects of his or her injury.
3. K.S.A. 44-532(a) states that where the payment of compensation of an employee is insured by a policy or policies at the expense of the employer, the insurer shall be subrogated to the rights and duties under the Workers Compensation Act of the employer so far as appropriate.
4. The Workers Compensation Act does not intend for an employee to designate his or her own treatment provider. Where the employer and the employee are the same person, the intent of the Act is upheld by allowing the insurance carrier to step into the shoes of the employer to designate a treatment provider.
Appeal from Workers Compensation Board. Opinion filed April 2, 1999. Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded with directions.
Judy A. Pope, of Dickson & Pope, P.A., of Topeka, for appellant.
Rex W. Henoch, of McAnany, Van Cleave & Phillips, P.A., of Lenexa, for appellees.
Before BRAZIL, C.J., ELLIOTT and RULON, JJ.
RULON, J.: Claimant Larry J. Matney, D.C., appeals the Workers Compensation Board's (Board) order denying him permanent partial general disability benefits and finding his insurance carrier, State Farm Fire & Casualty Co., properly designated his treatment provider. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand the cause with directions.
Claimant, a chiropractor, was injured in June 1993 while lifting a table at work. Claimant is the president, vice-president, and sole shareholder of respondent Matney Chiropractic Clinic. The administrative law judge (ALJ) awarded claimant permanent partial general disability of 38.75%. The insurance carrier, State Farm Fire & Casualty Company, (State Farm) requested review by the Board. The Board found claimant was not disabled from working for 1 week under K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 44-501(c) and was, therefore, only entitled to medical compensation, not permanent partial general disability. The Board further found State Farm was allowed to designate claimant's treating physician. Additionally, the Board found claimant's medical expenses provided by Dr. Darrell Fore after September 9, 1994, were unauthorized.
Appellate review of agency actions is limited to questions of law. Gleason v. Samaritan Home, 260 Kan. 970, 976, 926 P.2d 1349 (1996). The court's interpretation of a statute is a question of law over which appellate review is unlimited. See State v. Donlay, 253 Kan. 132, 133-34, 853 P.2d 680 (1993). The determination of whether the Board's findings of fact are supported by substantial competent evidence is a question of law. Gleason, 260 Kan. at 976. Importantly, this court does not reweigh the evidence or determine the credibility of witness testimony. Guerrero v. Dold Foods, Inc., 22 Kan. App. 2d 53, 56, 913 P.2d 612 (1995).
At the time of claimant's injury, K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 44-501(c) provided:
"Except for liability for medical compensation, . . . the employer shall not be liable under the workers compensation act in respect of any injury which does not disable the employee for a period of at least one week from earning full wages at the work at which the employee is employed."
Although the legislature amended K.S.A. 44-501(c) in 1996 to delete this section, the law in effect at the time of the injury governs the rights and obligations of the parties. See Osborn v. Electric Corp. of Kansas City, 23 Kan. App. 2d 868, 874, 936 P.2d 297, rev. denied 262 Kan. ___ (1997). The 1996 amendments to K.S.A. 44-501(c) are not retroactive. Osborn, 23 Kan. App. 2d at 874-75. K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 44-501(c) unambiguously states that when an injury does not disable the employee for at least 1 week from earning full wages, the employer is liable only for the medical expenses. Boucher v. Peerless Products, Inc., 21 Kan. App. 2d 977, 981, 911 P.2d 198, rev. denied 260 Kan. 991 (1996).
Although claimant decreased the number of hours worked, the record established claimant continued to draw the same bimonthly salary following his injury as before his injury. In fact, claimant's salary eventually increased. We are satisfied there was substantial competent evidence that claimant's injury did not disable him from earning full wages. As such, the Board did not err in finding claimant was ineligible for workers compensation benefits, other than medical compensation, under K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 44-501(c).
Claimant's argument the Board erred in denying him a work disability award is moot. Under K.S.A. 1992 Supp. 44-501(c), claimant was entitled only to medical compensation, so the Board did not err in finding claimant was not entitled to permanent partial general disability compensation.
K.S.A. 44-510(a) states it is the employer's duty "to provide the services of a health care provider . . . as may be reasonably necessary to cure and relieve the employee from the effects of the injury." Respondent designated Dr. Darrell Fore as claimant's authorized treatment provider. The Board found, however, that because claimant and respondent are the same individual, State Farm was authorized to designate claimant's treatment provider. State Farm advised claimant that as of November 24, 1993, Dr. Kenneth Wertzberger was to be designated as claimant's only authorized health care provider. State Farm further advised claimant it would not pay for chiropractic visits to Dr. Fore after September 9, 1994. However, claimant continued to see Dr. Fore. The Board found claimant's visits to Dr. Fore after September 9, 1994, were unauthorized and not compensable.
K.S.A. 44-532(a) states: "[W]here the payment of compensation of the employee . . . is insured by a policy or policies, at the expense of the employer . . . the insurer . . . shall be subrogated to the rights and duties under the workers compensation act of the employer so far as appropriate . . . ." Usually, designating an authorized treatment provider is an employer's duty, but the insurance carrier may be subrogated to that duty as is appropriate. The Workers Compensation Act specifically requires the employer, rather than the employee, to designate the treatment provider. K.S.A. 44-510. The Workers Compensation Act does not intend for an employee to designate his or her own treatment provider. Where the employer and the employee are the same person, the intent of the Act is upheld by allowing the insurance carrier to step into the shoes of the employer to designate a treatment provider.
Claimant argues K.S.A. 44-532(a) applies only to situations in which the insurance carrier asserts rights of recovery against other entities when money has been paid to an injured worker. Claimant further argues there is no basis for allowing the insurance carrier to step into other rights of the employer. However, the plain language of the statute allows the insurance carrier to be subrogated to "the rights and duties under the workers compensation act of the employer." K.S.A. 44-532(a). Such language does not limit subrogation to recovering money from other entities. We are convinced the Board did not err in finding State Farm was allowed to designate claimant's treatment provider and is allowed to designate treatment providers for future care if needed.
Claimant asserts that Dr. Wertzberger authorized treatment by Dr. Fore, making such expenses compensable. Dr. Wertzberger first saw claimant on November 23, 1993, and stated claimant could continue conservative treatment. On November 24, 1993, State Farm designated Dr. Wertzberger as claimant's authorized treatment provider. On January 11, 1994, Dr. Wertzberger said it was acceptable for claimant to continue to see Dr. Fore for chiropractic treatment, but recommended 6 months to 1 year of such treatment. On January 21, 1994, Dr. Wertzberger said, "I believe the prognosis is reasonably good for [claimant] to get better with conservative treatment. . . . I recommend that he go ahead and see the chiropractor near him." On June 6, 1994, State Farm told claimant Dr. Wertzberger was the only authorized treatment provider and treatment by Dr. Fore was not authorized. On September 7, 1994, State Farm told claimant no treatment from Dr. Fore would be authorized after September 9, 1994. On September 20, 1994, Dr. Wertzberger examined claimant and told him "if conservative treatment works, that is all that is needed. If the patient is able to tolerate the problem, then we should go no farther. If the problem is such that it is impairing his lifestyle severely, then a patient with [claimant's condition] does benefit from surgery." Dr. Wertzberger did not state that the continued conservative treatment of chiropractic care was unnecessary.
This record shows Dr. Wertzberger, as claimant's authorized treatment provider, approved claimant to continue treatment with Dr. Fore. There is no indication Dr. Wertzberger has determined such treatment is no longer necessary. Although State Farm attempted to disapprove all treatment by Dr. Fore, it did not have this authority, even acting in place of the employer. We conclude the Board erred in finding Dr. Fore's treatment was unauthorized when the evidence indicates Dr. Wertzberger approved such treatment.
We affirm the Board's denial of benefits other than medical compensation and its finding that State Farm had authority to designate claimant's treatment provider. We reverse the Board's denial of payment for expenses of Dr. Fore's treatment of claimant and remand the cause to the Board to reinstate the award of medical expenses.
