It's election time at NAEMT. Voting ends October 28, so this is a perfect time to join the largest organization representing the interests of EMS practitioners.
Like many people, I joined several years ago after taking PHTLS. At the time I was angry about the sorry state of EMS, from low salaries, lack of respect, and poor clinical care, and content to complain about instead of trying to make it better. I also thought that NAEMT was out of touch with these issues and dropped out.
A few years ago I pledged to stop complaining and work to make EMS better. In addition to starting this blog, I re-joined NAEMT and applied to be Delaware's State Advocacy Coordinator. I believe that exciting things are happening at the organization with the current leadership group, and am impressed with the candidates running for positions now.
Outgoing President Connie Meyer is a the first working paramedic to serve as president. She is a Paramedic Captain with Johnson County Med-Act, which is one of country's premier services. Check out the clinical standards page on their website. Her organization does the things that every service should do. During her term, NAEMT launched an Event Notification System and published a position paper supporting the Just Culture Initiative. These are great steps towards improving clinical care and learning from mistakes.
President Elect Don Lundy took action that reduced injuries with his service, Charleston County (SC) EMS. Injuries from lifting patients dropped significantly after they upgraded stretchers and stair chairs, so much so that the county risk manager received an award from the state. Don is a frequent guest on the EMS Leadership Podcast. I think he's the kind of leader most people would want to work for, and is someone worth getting behind to advocate for our profession.
As far as dues, it's $40. a year. It is tax deductible. Any professional organization's influence is based on the size and engagement of its members. You need to show up if you want it to look different, and you can start by clicking here.

In the user guide, where it explains the setting up of an email response form, it says once completing the wizard, click on share form. But all I can see on the toolbar is "setup and share". There the only thing close to adding to one's website is the "source code". If you click on here all that shows is the option is "post this code on your website", which is for the actual form. How do you get the email code loaded on one's website?
- JotForm FounderaytekinAnswered on February 14, 2011 at 11:48 AM
I think my "email code" you mean "form code".
On the Form Builder:
1. Open "Setup & Share" tab on toolbar,
2. Click on "Share Form"
3. Copy the code provided at "Paste this code on your web site".
Unfortunately, the documentation is incorrect. We recently released a new Embed Form wizard. So, you should use that instead.

I'm bypassing a few of The Supremes' other #1 hits — specifically, 'Love is Here and Now You're Gone,' 'Come See About Me' and 'The Happening' — and finishing off the Motown series with today's song, their final #1 single.
This is my 28th Motown song — 3 1/2 months' worth. I hope you've enjoyed the exploration of some of the finest music America has ever produced. I know I have. I do like the idea of keeping a theme on the weekends, and I think I know what I'll try next. Stay tuned.
My final Motown selection, 'Someday We'll Be Together,' is one of those classic tunes that usually plays at some point in movies about civil rights or race relations. If it didn't appear in Boyz N the Hood it should have.
It's labeled a Supremes song but is essentially a Diana Ross solo tune, as she is the only band member to actually appear on the track. Berry Gordy, that famous meddler, decided Diana Ross' first solo single should be 'Reach Out and Touch (Somebody's Hand)' and branded this recording as a Supremes track. 'Reach Out' wound up peaking at #20 while 'Someday We'll Be Together' topped the charts.
Regardless of all that, it's a great song and a nice way to bid adieu to Motown.
Say it, say it, say it, say it again (you tell 'em)
Someday we'll be together
Oh, yeah, oh yeah
You're far away
From me my love (say it, baby)
And just as sure my, my baby
As there are stars above
I wanna say it, wanna say it, wanna say it
Someday we'll be together
Oh, yes, we will, yes, we will
(Say it) Someday (some sweet day) we'll be together
I know, I know, I know, I know
My love is yours, baby
Oh, right from the start (baby, honey)
You, you, you posses my soul now, honey
And I know, I know you own my heart
And I wanna say it (tell 'em)
Some day (some sweet day) we'll be together
Yes we will, yes we will
Someday (tell everybody, now) we'll be together
Oh, yes, we will, yes, we will
Long time ago
Now, now sweet thing
I made a big mistake, honey (oh, baby)
I (say it) said, I said goodbye
Oh, oh baby
Ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever since that day
Now, now all I, all I wanna do is cry, cry, cry
Hey, hey, hey (oh, dear honey)
I long for you every, every night
Just to kiss your sweet, sweet lips, baby
Hold you ever, ever so tight
And I wanna say (say it)
Someday we'll be together
Oh, yes, we will, yes, we will
Someday we'll be together
Oh, yes, we will, yes, we will (my love)
Someday we'll be together
Oh, honey, honey, honey, honey, honey
Someday we'll be together
Yes, we will, yes, we will

Xico – The best Mexican restaurant in town!
Mexican food is so full of colour, life & Music. Its like a Pinata exploding in your mouth- Kate McLennan
Xico is like that Mexican Chick who knows her food too well, the one who is out to kill it, not only does she knows that she is beautiful but also that everyone wants to have her. She is fierce and knows her Mariachi music well, with sass she dances on it while sipping on her Margaritas. Xico – The best Mexican restaurant in town!
The above description might come across as an exaggeration to a few, but that's what this place at least did to us. We were in a trance with beautiful Mexican music, all the more appealing contemporary Mexican interiors (we could relate them quite well with Indian designs too) and the oh so fantastic food. The bright yellow sofas and the colorful decor adds the warmness to this place.
The food affair here is quite sorted, not much of a Jazz just quick easy and straightforward plates the closest to authentic Mexican available in Mumbai.
What you can't miss here is the freshly made Guacamole at your tableside customisable as per your taste tolerance, Nacho chips along with their distinctive homemade salsas. Me and my Sister we fought for the last spoon of Guac.
Queso Fundido is a Mexican version of Cheese fondue, only this one was a bit stretchy and floury spiced with chili.
Ollas De Frijol is a serving of pure beans cooked in a pot served with tortillas. Charros are simple and tasty.
Esquite Maiz is fresh corn kernels tossed with chipotle and cotija cheese.
For Flautas tried the Verdure which is the crispy rolled tortilla filled with carrots, squash and bell pepper with guacamole and queso fresco. Didn't particularly enjoyed the veggies felt like too much happening in one bite.
Must try Tacos is Camote the sweet potato hash turned out beautiful with Jalapenos and Pineapple chutney along with sliced Avacado.
Papas Con Rajas has simple components yet its one of the distinct dish for us. The baby potatoes cooked in cheese and cream served with red salsa Mexican rice was the most loved dish.
The drinks here are top notch, they show whose the man in the house and are a perfect match for their vibrant Mexican women.
We enjoyed the Xico Paloma, OAXACA Old Fashion, and Xico Sour. All their syrups and extracts made in-house.
In desserts, Pastel Tres Leches impressed us with strawberry compote being is the real charmer of the dish.
The Churros were okay, but the hot chocolate was thin and less chocolate concentrated to our liking. We are a fan of some thick Spanish hot chocolate even to go with churros.
Don't get intimated by the name your tongue can't roll out, irrespective of this you are going to have a gala time.
And if you were wondering what Xico is? then its "State of Mexico."
It is now the time for you to go out and get absorbed in a vibrant evening.

Do It Yourself Table Setting in 5 Steps
I love keeping a table set, it makes me feel that much closer to a prepared dinner (even if nothing is started!). For years I thought it would cost a fortune to keep a table set, so I shied away from it. A few years ago I realized I had been wrong this whole time. I want to show you how easy to can be!

There wasn't any fanfare from the corporate side when Samsung Pay users first saw earlier this month that they could link their PayPal accounts for use with the mobile payments system: finally, they could join Google Pay users and tap-to-PayPal.
But apparently, PayPal has finally coughed up to it. It released a press release yesterday announcing the official "rolling out" of the Samsung Pay integration.
Users can officially select the "Add PayPal" when adding a new payment card. Those with the PayPal app who have the One Touch fingerprint authentication feature on will automatically be authorized while others will have to put in their account credentials with Samsung Pay. The user will also have to set a PIN and a top-up source bank for the PayPal balance.

The Association
The Massage in Schools Association is a not-for-profit organisation, bringing together and supporting Massage in Schools (MISP) Trainers, Instructors and branches from over 30 countries worldwide.
The mission of the Massage in Schools Programme is to provide high quality and professional training to all teachers and caring adults willing to bring nurturing touch into all children's daily life.
The vision of the Massage in Schools Programme is that every child attending school experience positive and nurturing touch every day… everywhere in the world.
What is the Massage in Schools Programme?
The Massage in Schools Programme (MISP) is a peer massage programme for children aged between 4-12 (with adaptations for 2-3-year olds) that's helping people all over the world. MISP is not intended as a therapy, rather it aims to promote the well-being of children in the knowledge that nurturing touch is a basic need and a powerful tool to help children develop into healthy, well-balanced human beings. It has been developed as an inclusive whole school strategy for reducing children's stress levels, aggression and bullying, and is also implemented in other childcare settings such as nurseries, after school clubs, community groups and families.
The Massage in Schools Programme
Paired children learning the MISP massage routine, through the clothes, on the back, arms, shoulders and head
- Always asking their partner's permission before they begin and saying 'thank you' at the end
- Additional imagery-based massage stories and activities intended to spark the children's imagination and creativity
- Children sharing their learned massage skills with their family and friends
- Encouraging positive, respectful communication through nurturing touch
It has been unequivocally proven through research studies that regular nurturing touch is a developmental need in children. In targeting this need, proven effects of the Massage in Schools Programme include:
- Improved concentration levels
- Calmer classrooms
- Increase in children's self-esteem and confidence
- Increase in creativity
- Reduction in bullying and aggression
- Overall increase in emotional health and well-being
- Greater social awareness

Egg on Their Faces: The Maldives Still Above the Waves 30 Years After Environmentalist Prediction
On September 26, 2018, all 1,196 Maldives Islands will be under water, or so our environmentalist betters told us in 1988. Next week, the Maldives will go "poof," just like Atlantis. Here's the thing — the islands are actually getting bigger, and the climate alarmists have egg on their faces.
Daniel Turner, president of the pro-energy group Power the Future, had some fun with this prediction. "THIS IS NOT A JOKE. STOP LAUGHING. We have 7 days to rescue all the people and the living creatures. Call Noah and have him build another Ark. Bring out the Coast Guard. Send all the boogie boards and floaties you can find for the Maldives is going down in 7, 6, 5, 4..."
Turner doesn't really believe that the Maldives will sink below the waves next week. Anything is possible, but the best science is very much in favor of the Maldives' future as islands, not sunken lands.
"The earth is alive and it changes and it moves," Daniel Turner told PJ Media on Friday. "It's just a little bit presumptuous that mankind can change it and controls it."
He noted that there are a "tremendous number of factors" influencing global climate, and outlandish predictions almost always turn out to be false.
Turner noted Paul Ehrlich's infamous predication "that England will not exist in the year 2000." He joked that Queen Elizabeth II, "age 92, is fighting to outlive Mr. Ehrlich, age 86, just so she can get one last chuckle."
England is still here, and the Maldives are still here. As for the dire prediction, it was first published on September 26, 1988. The brief report, sent by Agence France-Presse (AFP) and published in Australia's The Canberra Times, made a specific prediction.
"A gradual rise in average sea level is threatening to completely cover this Indian Ocean nation of 1196 small islands within the next 30 years, according to authorities," the report warned. "The environmental Affairs Director, Mr Hussein Shihab, said an estimated rise of 20 to 30 centimeters in the next 20 to 40 years could be 'catastrophic' for most of the islands, which were no more than a mere above sea level."
The prediction got even worse, however. "But the end of the Maldives and its 200,000 people could come sooner if drinking water supplies dry up by 1992, as predicted," the report stated.
The year 1992 came and went, but the people of the Maldives did not die of thirst. September 26 is about four days away, and the islands show no signs of sinking.
In fact, National Geographic's Kennedy Warne reported in 2015 that the islands are growing, not shrinking. Warne spoke with New Zealand coastal geomorphologist Paul Kench at the University of Auckland's School of Environment. Kench worked along with colleagues in Australia and Fiji to study reef islands and rising sea levels.
"They found that reef islands change shape and move around in response to shifting sediments, and that many of them are growing in size, not shrinking, as sea level inches upward," Warne reported. "The implication is that many islands — especially less developed ones with few permanent structures — may cope with rising seas well into the next century."
Tragically, the more built up these islands are, the less likely they are to grow naturally. That said, it is simply not the case that rising sea levels will wash away the Maldives — and certainly not in the next four days.
Daniel Turner himself recalled two areas where the sea level has not noticeably risen in recent years. He did not suggest this was a scientific study to prove that sea levels are not rising, but the experiences are interesting.
"My parents would point to this spot where you could jump off the deck and into the ocean, when they were kids," Turner told PJ Media. Rockaway Beach "is now probably 500 feet long and it grows about ten feet a year, every year." That beach was destroyed by Hurricane Sandy in 2012, but the fact remains — the land has increased, not decreased, in recent years.
Similarly, the Power the Future president recalled, "I lived in Italy. St. Mark's Square has been flooding for 800 years, and the level's been pretty much exactly where it's always been for 800 years. I don't see how this sea level rise is happening.
Daniel Turner accused climate alarmists of making "these outlandish claims to scare people, to force policy change."
"When it comes to the energy industry, one of the reasons it's constantly under attack by the Left is philosophical," Turner suggested. "They do not like private industry," due to their "quasi-socialist beliefs."
The problem is, socialism ruins the free market, and the energy industry in particular. "All socialist countries nationalize their energy industry," he noted. He pointed to Venezuela, which has the third largest oil reserves, but is plagued by gas shortages.
Similarly, "California imports about 30 percent of its electricity because it cannot meet its mandates of renewable electricity." The state imports energy from Oregon, "which burns coal." In such cases, "all you're doing is burning those fossil fuels somewhere else."
However, the "ultimate proof" about the "fallacy of the climate change argument" isn't any failed prediction or political agenda, Turner suggested. Instead, this proof involves how climate alarmists live their lives.
Daniel Turner mentioned the lavish lifestyles of Michael Bloomberg, Tom Steyer, and Al Gore, who own (and keep the lights on at) multiple houses, fly across the country on private jets, and enjoy a high life powered by fossil fuels. Turner did not begrudge them their lavish lifestyles, but he did attack the hypocrisy.
"They don't live green lives, but they want government to impose green mandates," the Power the Future president quipped.
Despite all this — the failed predictions, the political edge, the hypocrisy — so many people reject skeptics as if they were the crazy ones. "When we point out inconsistencies, we're told we 'don't believe in science,'" Daniel Turner explained. "There's nothing more unscientific than the need to have 'belief' in science."
As for the Maldives, Turner plans to console them for their loss — or, should the environmentalists be wrong, which is of course impossible, congratulate them for surviving. Luckily, the country has an embassy in Washington, D.C., near where Turner is based.
"I'm probably going to bring flowers or balloons to the embassy in D.C. and congratulate them for surviving," Turner told PJ Media. Now that would be a sight to see.

T-ara just released the first batch of teaser photos for their long-awaited K-pop comeback, which means you can officially forget about every other K-pop comeback for the entire month of October (and possibly the rest of the year).
It looks like they shot these photos on the set of District 9, which is fitting considering that their new single is a Shinsadong Tiger-produced future smash called "Number 9."
This bad girl concept is like "Day by Day" meets "Cry Cry" with a twist of Mad Max and The Hitchhiker. You can really tell that T-ara don't give no fucks and are ready to return to Korea and decapitate every bitch netizen who dared defy their holy reign after Hwayoung left.
Slay-ara's new album drops October 10.

I had know about this gig for a while, but was originally planning just to go to my local and have an early night due to not having any money this time of year.
Only during the week I was offered the chance to come to the gig and decided to take it as I thought it might be good to do something different for once and I could always go back to the pub next year.
I had not been to the Caravan Music Club before and I ended up eating in the green room with the band members due to it being a full house. I did get some photos of the audience and Johnny Topper DJing, but mostly I just sat down the end of the table and listened to everyone else.
It was great to see Andy Baylor leading a big band as I had only seen him play with Sarah Carroll or with the Fireside Bellows before.
I had a chat to Tracey Miller and the Soulettes in the band room and I thought they sang great in the first set and also with Continental Robert.
Continental Robert played in the second set and also did the countdown at midnight, which was great. I also liked the staged confrontation with Tracey Miller and him going off the stage with a cape ala James Brown at the end.
It was a great first gig at the new venue and I look forward to seeing the Pirates of Beer there in a couple of weeks time. Thanks to Peter Foley for inviting me, the bands, the Caravan Music crew and Andy Baylor for giving me a lift back to Caulfield afterwards.

New to SEO? SMX West 2008 - SEO and Blogging
Linking Q&A - This panel of search representatives and search marketers takes questions about linking, from link building, to issues about buying links, to internal linkage and more. Read more about SMX West 2008 agenda...
Ask your questions at: http://smxwest.com/ask.php?sess=116
- Nathan Buggia, Lead Program Manager, Live Search Webmaster Central, Microsoft
- Matt Cutts, Software Engineer, Google
- Priyank Garg, Director Product Management, Yahoo! Search
- Rae Hoffman, Principal, Sugarrae Internet Consulting
- Peter Linsley, Senior Product Manager, Search, Ask.com
- Todd Malicoat, Independent Search Engine Marketing Consultant, ,Stuntdubl
We plan to move our domain how do I make sure our link stay?
- So you might try to do 301's is what someone said.
- If you want to be very safe, then move one part of your site first is what Matt Cutts has to say from Google. Then do the rest.
- Engage a reputable SEO because there is a whole lot that can go wrong said Nathan Buggia of Microsoft.
How important are .edu or .gov links are they important? do we want them?
- It depends how current and fresh the link is.
- spam doesn't seem to exist as much on .edu and .gov so they tend to be better websites in that way.
Ask.com said you don't have to use no follow on paid links is that the case?
- well checkout SearchEngineland's article: The 2007 Paid link War, in Review where you can check out all the quotes from the search engines about it.
What's the definition of a paid link?
(Ani comment...All right who ever asked this, man what a debate you started, seems like everyone wants to comment on this three times before they let it go and every panel member has answered this.)
- So there is two notions of paid link, which is I have a website that has a link that goes nowhere but someone paid me to put the link on my site (okay so that's not really good). But....if you have a legitimate site that you want to put a link on your page to point to that site because they are a hospital or a legitimate business, then that would be a good paid link.
- But now we are getting into a debate about what is good and what is a bad link. So there is a big pain point seems like for illegitimate paid links and good paid links which is near and dear to Google and Microsoft's heart as well as other experts in the industry.
- Nice Nathan Buggia puts in a plug for Microsoft is hiring in the Live Search group... check out Microsoft's Careers site to apply. And Seattle, WA is beautiful this time of year!!!!
If a link has been turned into a 301 how will that be handled? (so if I have a page that I then turn the page into a 301 then what happens to it) Check out what is 301 to find out more about 301
- 301 should be fine, so if the content is the same thing then you should be golden.
- Essentially if you do use a 301 in a website and it looks like a relevant page then you are fine, but if you do have 3 sequential 301's then it might not count for 100%.
Link sabotage fact or fiction, can it help or hurt you?
- Keep an eye on your access logs and if you do see sites that have not been there before that is a good sign something is wrong.
- Do report links that are trying to sabotage you is what Yahoo! had to say.
I got a website and some company buy my company and Google sees the domain name registration change, have I lost my linking credit and how links are flown to it?
- No there is really not change in ranking.
- If the industries change however, then you will see a drop.
- Also, do not change the design of your webpage at the same time as changing the domain. So make sure to have incremental changes.
How concerned should we be if sites linking to me turn bad and are (spam sites)?
- Site explorer report spam,
- you can't really control that.
What is the good pace to build at?
- depends on what you are starting with, so if you are starting with 1000 links so adding a 100 is no big deal but if you are new then 1000 links is a bit to much.
- Check your industry

By Andre Johnson
After the breaking trend of boys growing their hair to get the newly popular, "nappy fro," the trend is finally starting to die down.
Boys are finally rocking the low cut again and working towards getting the waves which in my opinion are better.
Nowadays, if you have the low cut, you need to be "swimming" because that's the current trend.
But the real behind the scenes story comes from the brush you use and making sure you are using the right brush for the best swim.
First, we have the soft brush, generally used when you first get that cut because you don't have much hair and the bristles are gentle. Although this brush is good on a fresh cut, it's not so good when a cut is needed.
If you have too much hair for the soft brush, then you won't be making any progress and the brushing becomes pointless because the soft brush isn't doing anything at that point.
Sure the bristles feel great and it's typically the brush everyone goes and buys for their first one, but honestly it is not my favorite.
Secondly, we move on to the medium brush which is my favorite of all the brushes.
You can use the medium brush whenever you feel like it. Coming off a fresh cut? Sure thing. Haven't had a cut in a minute? No problem that medium brush will still be useful.
I always like how the bristles are not too hard and not too soft, made at the perfect strength to work either way. Just like baby bear found the porridge that was just right, so did I when I found the medium brush.
If you are trying to get waves, I think it's mandatory to cop a medium brush because they always come in handy.
Lastly, we have the "fresh cut scalp killer" or the hard brush.
I've tried to use the hard brush on a fresh cut. NEVER AGAIN WILL I DO THAT. I hated it and thought I was digging to the inside of my head. When you don't have much hair, do not even think about picking up a hard brush. If and only if you have a lot of hair do you need a hard brush to lay down all the hair and help you progress.

The classical definition of a stem cell requires that it possess two properties:
- Self-renewal - the ability to go through numerous cycles of cell division while maintaining the undifferentiated state.
- Potency - the capacity to differentiate into specialized cell types. In the strictest sense, this requires stem cells to be either totipotent or pluripotent - to be able to give rise to any mature cell type, although multipotent or unipotent progenitor cells are sometimes referred to as stem cells.
Potency definitions
Potency specifies the differentiation potential (the potential to differentiate into different cell types) of the stem cell.
- Totipotent stem cells are produced from the fusion of an egg and sperm cell. Cells produced by the first few divisions of the fertilized egg are also totipotent. These cells can differentiate into embryonic and extraembryonic cell types.
- Pluripotent stem cells are the descendants of totipotent cells and can differentiate into cells derived from any of the three germ layers.
- Multipotent stem cells can produce only cells of a closely related family of cells (e.g. hematopoietic stem cells differentiate into red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, etc.).
- Unipotent cells can produce only one cell type, but have the property of self-renewal which distinguishes them from non-stem cells (e.g. muscle stem cells).
Identifying stem cells
The practical definition of a stem cell is the functional definition - the ability to regenerate tissue over a lifetime. For example, the gold standard test for a bone marrow or hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) is the ability to transplant one cell and save an individual without HSCs. In this case, a stem cell must be able to produce new blood cells and immune cells over a long term, demonstrating potency. It should also be possible to isolate stem cells from the transplanted individual, which can themselves be transplanted into another individual without HSCs, demonstrating that the stem cell was able to self-renew.
Properties of stem cells can be illustrated in vitro, using methods such as clonogenic assays, where single cells are characterized by their ability to differentiate and self-renew.[4][5] As well, stem cells can be isolated based on a distinctive set of cell surface markers. However, in vitro culture conditions can alter the behavior of cells, making it unclear whether the cells will behave in a similar manner in vivo. Considerable debate exists whether some proposed adult cell populations are truly stem cells.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_cell

New Starts ranking of Central Link light rail puts project in line for federal funding
The Federal Transit Administration's (FTA) "Annual Report on New Starts," released today, gives the Initial Segment of the Central Link light rail project a "Recommended" rating, which means the project is eligible for federal funding.
"This is a big step by the Administration. It recognizes the progress we've made on the Central Link light rail project over the last year," Ron Sims, King County Executive and Sound Transit Board Chair, said. "The ranking is a clear sign that we're moving forward once again."
"The Sound Transit Board has worked very closely with our federal partners and our congressional delegation throughout the development of the Initial Segment. We look forward to working with U.S. Secretary of Transportation Norm Mineta, U.S. DOT Inspector General Kenneth Mead, FTA Administrator Jenna Dorn, U.S. Rep. Hal Rogers, U.S. Sen. Patty Murray and the entire Washington congressional delegation as we move forward with Central Link light rail," Sims said. "They all deserve a lot of credit for their commitment to improving the transportation situation in our region."
Initially, a first segment of the light rail project was recommended for federal funding and Sound Transit signed a grant agreement with the federal government. Last April, the U.S. Department of Transportation's Inspector General raised concerns about new cost estimates and community consensus and recommended that the federal funding be put on hold
Since then Sound Transit has been completely reorganized, cost and budget controls have been strengthened, and community outreach has intensified.
"Sound Transit is a changed agency since the Inspector General's report last April," Sound Transit Executive Director Joni Earl said. "This 'Recommended' ranking-not to mention the latest report from the Citizen Oversight Panel-recognizes those changes and the hard work done by the Sound Transit Board and agency staff."
With community input, the Board last year identified an Initial Segment that runs from downtown Seattle to S. 154th in Tukwila, with shuttle service to SeaTac Airport. The Initial Segment, which was given the "Recommended" rating today, will carry approximately 42,500 riders daily. This ridership projection, which is higher than most other projects in final design or with a federal funding agreement but less than the original plan (which was ranked "Highly Recommended"), is the primary reason for the different ranking.
As expected, the Administration's FY2003 budget did not include a funding recommendation for Central Link. Sound Transit officials expect to renegotiate a federal funding agreement later this year.

Sound Transit plans, builds and operates regional transit systems and services to improve mobility for Central Puget Sound.
