text: Tuesday, November 20, 2012 NCOA Launches State Policy Toolkit for Advancing Falls Prevention The National Council on Aging's (NCOA) new State Policy Toolkit aims to organize and maximize community falls prevention assets and resources, and establish innovative policies and practices within states, communities, and organizations. The toolkit offers a compendium of suggested policy changes to advance falls prevention, categorized under 8 major goals. It outlines the opportunities, strategies, and examples of what is possible through education and engagement of key stakeholders. The toolkit can be used as a guide for promoting discussion and potential action on policy changes that are appropriate for the population, geographic location, partnerships, and culture of your community. Users can adapt a limited, manageable set of strategies from the toolkit to put into action; include a set of indicators to measure progress of select recommendations; and review the resource compendium to find materials to promote strategic partnerships with providers. APTA is a member of NCOA's Falls Free Coalition. For additional patient care and consumer education resources on this topic, visit APTA's Balance and Falls webpage.

Legacy app modernization company Mobilize.Net has this month announced its Web Modernization Accelerator Program (WebMAP) as a means of moving Visual Basic 6, .NET, and PowerBuilder applications to the Web.

ReportsMore >>
- [Free Virtual Event] Using Microsoft in 2020 & Beyond
- How Secure is Your Azure Cloud Security Environment?
Application modernization tools of this kind feature automated analysis and transformation functions that work on source code which may be as old as 15 to 20 years. If this code is outdated, obsolete, or unsupported the argument exists to transform and modernize the app which its serves.
"There are billions and billions of lines of legacy VB6, .NET, and PowerBuilder code in enterprises today. Modernization technology can provide migration solutions that are more efficient and less risky, preserving the value of the business IP in the legacy code, while updating the architecture to breathe new life into aging software assets," said Tom Button, CEO of Mobilize.Net.
The .NET Chosen One
Button says that WebMAP can move working code to the latest web architecture, without introducing the bugs or project risks that plague manual rewrites. According to Button, this technology is Microsoft's "chosen migration solution" for .NET.
"It generates 100% native code with no reliance on proprietary third-party runtimes with costly ongoing license fees. Moreover, it reduces the number of lines of code developers need to write and reduces the cost of development. All of this allows the development teams to focus on adding new features that take advantage of the target platform rather than throwing out and rewriting functionality that works," he said.
Features of the WebMAP automation technology include automatic code separation technology to divide application code between web clients and servers. The resulting application is multi-tier, multi-tenant, and web-enabled and therefore potentially more suitable for mobile device clients and Software-as-a-Service models.
WebMAP offers the ability to customize the tooling to fit specific needs such as preferred architecture, custom component mappings, and company coding standards. There is also semantic rather than just syntactic code analysis and transformation, resulting in a code base on the new platform that is said to "accurately reflect" the developer's original intent with pattern matching and optimizations over blocks of code, not simply line by line.

Knee injuries are common among active kids, especially athletes, and a torn medial collateral ligament (MCL) — a ligament that helps give the knee its stability — is a common type of knee injury.
Kids who play contact sports, like football and soccer, are most likely to have a torn MCL. The injury happens when the outside of the knee is struck, causing it to unnaturally bend inward (toward the other knee). This creates tension on the MCL, a rope-like band, and it stretches or breaks in half.
Children with a partially or completely torn MCL might have swelling and pain within the first 24 hours of injury. Fortunately, this injury can heal on its own with anywhere from 1 to 6 weeks of resting the joint.
Most kids will still need to undergo rehabilitation ("rehab") therapy to help regain strength in the joint.
The MCL is one of the four main ligaments in the knee joint. It is located on the side of the knee that is closer to the other knee. One end of the ligament is attached to the femur, while the other end is attached to the tibia.
Together with the lateral collateral ligament (LCL), which is in the same location on the outside of the knee, the MCL helps prevent the overextension of the knee joint from side-to-side.
A child with a partially or completely torn MCL may or may not have symptoms, depending on the severity of the injury.
Pain and swelling can be very intense initially, and some kids (with more severe injuries) will have some instability when walking, feeling "wobbly" or unable to bear weight on the affected leg.
Many kids, especially those who are familiar with the injury or have torn a ligament before, report hearing a "pop"sound — the sound of the ligament tearing.
A child who has injured a knee — whether out on the field or at home — should stop all activity (to prevent further injury) and seek immediate medical care. In the meantime, keep the area iced — place the ice in a plastic bag, wrap the bag in a cloth, and hold it to the knee for up to 20 minutes at a time. Also, keep the knee elevated as much as possible to reduce swelling. Do not let your child bear weight on the knee.
At the doctor's office or emergency room, doctors will perform physical exams and imaging tests to determine if there is a knee injury and, if so, how severe it is.
To help diagnose an MCL injury, doctors do something called a Valgus test. The child lies down flat, and the affected leg is moved out to the side, and the knee is flexed at about 30 degrees. The doctor places one hand on the back of the knee joint and the other on the top side of the ankle. The doctor then rotates the shin bone and pushes the foot outward, to see how far the MCL will extend. Too much flexibility can signal an injury.
To properly diagnose MCL injuries, doctors usually perform these tests in combination or in addition to other physical exams.
While X-rays might be taken to determine the extent of the injury, they only image bone and, therefore, can only confirm the presence of bone fractures in the knee. An MRI, which images tissue (like ligaments and muscles), can confirm a partial or complete MCL tear so some doctors will order one to confirm a diagnosis.
Doctors categorize MCL injuries according to the following criteria:
Treatment of MCL injuries requires long-term rest of the joint. Depending on the severity of the injury, a child will need to walk with the assistance of crutches, limit physical activity, and wear a knee brace. Putting too much pressure on the knee can cause reinjury.
Rehabilitation therapy is needed to help heal the knee and to:
Most kids undergo rehab at a center three times a week, with daily exercises they practice at home. Accelerated rehab programs require more frequent therapy and can speed up recovery.
In the early stages of recovery, keep the knee iced and elevated to help to reduce pain and swelling. Over-the-counter or prescription painkillers and anti-inflammatory medicine can help kids deal with the pain and feel more comfortable.
While most sports are off limits — especially the activity that caused the injury in the first place — kids can do some low-impact activities that may be fun and even therapeutic, like swimming, bike riding, or protected running. Talk to your doctor about what activities might benefit your child.
Being told that you can't do the things you love — like running or playing football, field hockey, or softball — can be a devastating blow to any child. Kids recovering from an MCL injury, especially a severe one, may feel angry, frustrated, and even depressed, especially if they're no longer participating in team sports with their friends.
But in the meantime, there are ways to still feel like part of the team. Keeping score, being a coach's assistant, or bringing water to the games may help. If your son or daughter doesn't want to do these, suggest starting a hobby, like playing the guitar, painting, drawing, or another sedentary activity that won't put too much strain on the knee. Low-impact activities, like swimming, are another option.
In time, kids can again do the things they love. But if your child continues to feel angry or depressed during recovery, encourage him or her to talk to a school psychologist or counselor, who can help your child cope and look ahead to better days.

7. Sexual misconduct: According to eHarmony, 37.8 percent of people met their spouse at work. The phrase "don't dip your pen in the company ink" is a well worn clich, and some companies are so concerned about the negative effects of office romances that they expressly prohibit workplace dating. Taking the proverbial "roll in the hay" might seem like the most obvious misbehavior to avoid in the work place. However, it happens, quite frequently. Many HR managers view sexual misconduct at work as "gross misconduct," and that gets you fired. Save the passion for another time and place.
8. Surfing porn: Again, another obvious NO NO! However, it may surprise you how many people do it. In 2012, the Pentagon's Missile Defense Agency warned its employees and contractors to stop using their government computers to surf the Internet for pornographic sites, according to the agency's executive director. Nielsen Online found that 25 percent of people are watching porn during business hours. Furthermore, according to Google the terms "sex" and "porn" receive 506 million and 618 million monthly searches respectively. Get caught surfing porn, and you'll be handed a pink slip. Try to explain that on your next job interview!
the 17th annual CCH Unscheduled Absence Survey. Personal illness accounts for only 34 percent of Nike Uptempo Tan unscheduled absences from work costing up to an average of $602 per employee, per year.
3. Too many sick days: People get sick. Companies anticipate employee sickness and therefore offer sick leave. If they didn't, that would accelerate health problems and the spread of illness, thereby lowering productivity and morale. However, some organizations suffer from sick leave abuse, and sick leave abuse translates into lost dollars. Many organizations have traditionally limited sick leave to six days per year. workers who call in sick at the last minute do so for reasons other than physical illness, according to the findings of Nike Air Uptempo Pippen White Red
Some of the gaffes below might seem like no brainers, but we bet you probably know someone who has been fired for the following.
4. Falsifying time card: If you're showing up late for work, leaving early from work, but fail to indicate that on your time card, you are essentially stealing from your employer. Falsification of a time card happens when employees provide inaccurate data about their hours worked or cause others to supply misleading information. Under the FLSA or federal Fair Labor Standards Act, companies have a legal obligation to maintain accurate payroll records, including accurate records of time worked. Any action that falsified payroll documents could be considered time card fraud. It may also be a criminal offense in some jurisdictions. In Massachusetts, for example, receiving pay for hours not actually worked is a form of larceny. So, the next time you show up late, leave early or simply take a day off and fail to write it down be prepared to Nike Air More Uptempo Size 7
Everyone makes mistakes. While most employers are willing to overlook minor slip ups, major blunders can cost employees their jobs.
6. Drinking on the job: If too many episodes of "Mad Men" have you thinking that scotch on the rocks, on the job, is an acceptable practice, think again. An employee who drinks on the job is a huge liability for companies. Employees who drink while at work are likely to display diminished job performance, lowered productivity, absenteeism, tardiness, high turnover, and increased medical and workers' compensation bills. Employees who abuse drugs and alcohol can also make a workplace more volatile and more dangerous, and they can expose employers to legal liability. If your job has a no drinking on the job clause in their policy, then yes, you can be fired for it even at lunch!
get the boot, or even worse, face criminal charges.
comes your way. Otherwise, you can kiss that job goodbye.
8 stupid moves that get you fired
1. Sorry I'm late: How many times in the last month have you shown up late for work? If you constantly arrive late to work, or return late from breaks or lunch, it displays an attitude of complacency and carelessness. Arriving late on a regular basis is disrespectful to your employer as well as your co workers who do make an effort to arrive on time. Time is money and if you're not showing up on time, on a regular basis, you're essentially costing your employer money. Even minimal lateness costs businesses in the United States more than $3 billion dollars a year in lost productivity, and involves more than 20 percent of the population, according to HR Magazine. An employee who is late 10 minutes each day has, by the end of the year, taken the equivalent of a week's paid vacation. Adding to the total cost is the ripple effect of late starting meetings as productivity is impacted throughout an entire organization.
5. That's not part of my job description: If you use this excuse frequently to avoid work, you're sending a clear message to your boss and coworkers that you have no initiative. Supervisors, bosses, even co workers appreciate team players. If you're not willing to take on work that you feel isn't your responsibility, remember someone else will, and you can be easily replaced. If you truly want to keep getting a paycheck, it's a good idea to make yourself available when additional work Uptempo Nike Atlanta
2. Stealing from the company: Seventy five percent of Americans admit to stealing on the job, according to self report studies. Pens, highlighters, Post it Notes and scissors are some of the most common items employees "take" from the office supply closet. Department of Commerce. And companies are cracking down, using private investigators, background checks and even hidden cameras to sniff out workplace thieves. Employee theft is defined as any stealing, use or misuse of an employer's assets without permission. Employee theft goes beyond office supplies and can include larceny/embezzlement, payroll schemes, expense reimbursement schemes, and stealing business opportunities. If an employer looks at pilfering as a serious ethical breach, it can end a person's employment.

If you are considering a rental from RVshare, then you will need to be 25 years of age to be approved.
Just like any vehicle that you rent, with camper rentals in Rockford, WA, you are going to need to have insurance that will cover the vehicle in the event that there is an accident. If you do not have insurance that you can use for the rental, then take a look at our insurance page for more information about your options.
When you rent an RV, it's a good practice to bring the RV back with a full tank. At the same time, not all owners require it, so be sure to communicate with the RV owner before you rent so that you understand his or her refueling requirements.
One-way RV rentals in Rockford, WA are available, but it is not always an option with every RV owner. It's important to ask the renter if a one-way rental is an option prior to renting your vehicle.

Unconference – Highlight of Oracle OpenWorld 2009 September 23, 2009Posted by Richard Foote in Richard's Musings.
I'm about to embark on another overseas adventure, this one taking me right around the world. I'll first visit the country of my birth, England, for a few weeks before making my way across the Atlantic Ocean to attend Oracle OpenWorld in San Francisco.
This will be my second Oracle OpenWorld. I already have a packed schedule with something planned each evening so it's going to be a really busy period but hopefully a lot of fun as well. With 11g Release 2 and the new Sun OLTP Oracle Database Machine to investigate, I'll try and target the more technical, less marketing hype presentations and discussion forums if I can.
However this year, I believe one of the real highlights of the whole conference will be the somewhat low key Oracle Unconference (note the photo in the link !!) that will be running for the 3rd time. Held on the 3rd floor of Moscone West, it's basically a series of presentations that anyone interested in discussing or presenting a topic can just sign up and participate. It's designed to be a far less "formal" or structured event than the usual conference presentations with more emphasis on discussions and interaction than Powerpoint slides and the such. That said, anyone can present on any topic in any manner they like and if it's of interest will hopefully attract like interested folk.
With a whiteboard and laptop in hand, this year I'll be presenting a Q & A session on Oracle Indexes on Tuesday 13 October at 10am where anyone can ask me whatever question relating to Oracle Indexes might be on their minds. If the Oracle questions run out, we can always discuss what David Bowie album is the most influential 🙂
This year, there is a truly excellent list of people who are also presenting at the Unconference including many Oracle ACE Directors and well renowned experts such as Cary Millsap, Greg Rahn, Alex Gorbachev, Kevin Closson, Chris Muir to name but a few, who will be covering a wealth of really interesting, technical based topics. It's a fantastic opportunity to see these folks in a small, informal setting where you can actually ask questions and interact in discussions, rather than just be one of the crowd in a typical "big room" OOW presentation.
For those of you lucky enough to attend the conference, I would strongly recommended spending some of your precious time checking out the various presentations on offer at the Unconference.
Hope to meet some of you at Oracle OpenWorld in a couple of weeks !! If you see me wandering around or at the Unconference, please come or stop me and say hello.


text: Tuesday, April 16, 2013 CEO John Barnes Leaving APTA The American Physical Therapy Association today announced that CEO John Barnes will be leaving the organization effective July 31. The Board of Directors will launch a national search for a new CEO in the near term, and members will receive information on the process to be used in the search. The Board will appoint an interim CEO to lead the organization during the search process and will announce the interim appointment prior to July 31. "The Board is grateful to John for his 6 years of service," said APTA President Paul A. Rockar Jr, PT, DPT, MS. "John has been instrumental in bringing a new perspective to the management of APTA as a very successful professional association. Based on a collaborative assessment of next steps for the organization, we believe that this is a time for a change in organizational leadership." During Barnes' tenure from 2007-2013, APTA increased its membership by 15%, increased its revenues by 20%, and increased its meeting attendance by 51%, providing outstanding meetings and other professional development opportunities for physical therapists and physical therapist assistants. Barnes oversaw an internal reorganization and a review of governance structure and policy. Due to APTA's solid foundation, the association is well poised to move to its next level of growth.

Today, ASP.NET developers have two options when building new Web projects: the old faithful ASP.NET Web Forms, or the young gun, ASP.NET MVC framework. Increasingly, companies are choosing ASP.NET MVC for green field development and for significant revisions of existing sites. But does ASP.NET MVC really bring concrete benefits that can be justified to upper management?
ASP.NET MVC has a lot of technical goodies that developers have fallen in love with. But, it turns out that in exchange for those benefits, ASP.NET MVC has greater startup costs. And in some applications, ASP.NET MVC is a substantial turnaround from ASP.NET Web Forms.
ASP.NET and TV Screens
It is said that Microsoft initially created ASP.NET MVC (in roughly 2007-08) as a proof of concept to demonstrate that it was possible to apply patterns such as Model-View-Controller (MVC) to ASP.NET. (The MVC pattern, which is frequently used in the design of web sites, aims to separate data, business logic, and the presentation to the user. The challenge in many cases is keeping business logic out of the presentation layer; and careful design based on MVC greatly reduces the prospect of this intermingling.) However, no IT manager will spend money on new software solely because it applies patterns. So why, then, is ASP.NET MVC gaining momentum?
ASP.NET MVC is technically superior to ASP.NET Web Forms because, having been released five years later, it addresses the business and technology changes that have occurred during the intervening period testability, separation of concerns, ease of modification, and so on. When it comes to the core function, however, there is nearly no difference.
If you investigate the reasons for switching espoused by early adopters of ASP.NET MVC, you find a common point of origin widespread discontent with ASP.NET Web Forms. If you think that ASP.NET Web Forms works well, then there is probably no reason for you to consider alternatives. In this case, jumping on the ASP.NET MVC bandwagon would be an instance of the notorious "Architecture as Requirements" anti-pattern, where organizations use a given technology or product simply because it's nifty and new, but for no truly compelling reason.
It's Progress, Baby
To this end, ASP.NET MVC undoes to one of the best-selling points of ASP.NET Web Forms when it was introduced a decade ago: It shielded developers from the nitty-gritty details of HTML. In contrast, ASP.NET MVC stays closer to the metal of HTML and HTTP, and it gets rid of the thick abstraction layer built on top of Web Forms (viewstate, server controls, page controllers, event-based page lifecycle).
Benefits of MVC's Closeness to the Code
Control over HTML enables developers to build Ajax applications more comfortably, and it facilitates adding more interactivity and responsiveness to existing apps. Direct control over HTML also means better accessibility for implementing compliance with evolving Web standards. The world of Web continually progresses, and ASP.NET MVC is closer than Web Forms to all emerging technology trends.
In addition, ASP.NET MVC uses interface-based contracts, which allow components to be more easily tested in isolation. As a result, cleaner and more testable code is often promoted as a good reason to embrace ASP.NET MVC. Frankly, I don't consider this a valid primary reason for its selection. Writing clean code should be a practice that transcends the technology. While it can't be denied that ASP.NET MVC is an inherently more testable framework, testability is more about isolating critical portions of code to gain visibility over internal state and control over input two factors critical to attain the needed modularity. This practice has more to do with clean design and thoughtful code than with the surrounding framework. Put another way, your chances of writing bad code are nearly the same in Web Forms and ASP.NET MVC. But if you write bad code, MVC will make it easier to diagnose.
Towards a Strategy
The runtime environment is the same for ASP.NET Web Forms and ASP.NET MVC applications. That is, the view engine for MVC is the ASP.NET Web Forms engine. This factor enables sites to add MVC blocks incrementally to an existing ASP.NET project, and thus both test and, if desired, transition to MVC. However, MVC enables other view engines to be used as drop-in replacements for Web Forms, including Razor, an engine developed by Microsoft and now bundled with MVC.
The complexity of modern applications requires considerable attention to design: isolation of concerns, testability, scalability, and so on. With proper discipline, you can still write good quality code on top of existing ASP.NET Web Forms. The emerging wisdom, however, is that Web Forms cannot structurally serve you in the same stellar manner you may have experienced in years past. ASP.NET MVC becomes the better choice as soon as you feel Web Forms is no longer serving you at the level to which you've become accustomed. This moment is likely to arise at the point when you want to upgrade or expand customer interactivity on your site.

Stanczyk has been noticing some new software lately. This week Google had their Google I/O Conference and they released some new software there of note. For those with Apple's iOS devices, we finally have the Google Chrome browser available to use on our iPhone/iPad. This jester quick downloaded the app as I had been waiting for it.
At RootsTech 2012, Google announced that they were going to create a microcode widget (still not here yet). But about that time, I noticed they had a new widget (see yellow highlight at the left) next to their Bookmark-This-Page star widget in the Chrome browser, when you go to the Ancestry.com and visit your family tree. This widget was/is not available in Apple's Safari browser. This little widget will do a look-up at FamilySearch.org on the person in your tree you are presently at. Sometimes I use this to see if there is any new database available that has something on my ancestor.
Sadly, the Chrome browser app on iPhone did not have the widget. The browser did work fast. Depending on how your brain works, you may prefer Chrome over Safari (or vice-versa). I found both functionally about the same. Here are Chrome and Safari side-by-side (iPhone screen shots) …
Also new on the iOS device scene is a new app, named Heredis. It is an attractive app, but I was not willing to hand enter all my family tree again (and I have been mocked that my 1070+ person tree is SMALL). I could not find a way to import my GEDCOM from any device. I tried hooking the iPhone up to a laptop and I also tried having them on the same WiFi network — no luck. The HELP functionality was absolutely no help. My recommendation is you do not bother unless you are just starting out and do not mind entering your data by hand on your iOS device.
As you can see from the screen shot I am trying to go mobile with my genealogy. There is MyHeritage, Ancestry, Mocavo, Indexing, and Heredis. There is also a RootsTech app — which EVERY technical conference should embrace for their attendees.
The Indexing App is so that you too can pitch in and help FamilySearch.org index images so we all get more databases to browse/search online.
How many do you use?
