The following is a glossary of terms commonly used in the discussion on reform of payment and delivery models in health care.
Accountable care organization (ACO): A network of health care professionals and organizations that band together to provide health care services for a defined population of patients; the network is paid to provide coordinated comprehensive care to patients and assumes responsibility for the cost and quality of that care.
Blended payment: A payment model that blends various methods of paying for health care services; for example, CMS' Comprehensive Primary Care initiative touts a blended payment model that combines fee-for-service with a per-patient, per-month care coordination fee and the opportunity for practices to receive a portion of any resulting shared savings if quality targets are achieved.
Bundled payment: A payment model that combines payment for physicians, the hospital and other health care services into a singled predetermined amount intended to cover all services provided to a patient during a defined episode of care.
Capitation: A method of paying for health care services in which, for example, the physician providing services receives a predetermined payment for each patient on a periodic basis (e.g. per month) rather than receiving payment based on the number or cost of services provided; capitation may be global, covering all services provided to the patient, or partial, covering only a selected subset of services (e.g. primary care services). A per-patient, per-month care coordination fee is an example of partial capitation.
Care coordination fee (or care management fee): A separate fee most often paid to a patient's primary care physician on a capitated basis for the work involved in coordinating or managing all aspects of the patient's care so as to ensure that the patient receives appropriate and necessary care in a timely fashion; the fee typically is intended to help cover practice costs and non-face-to-face services needed to effectively provide care coordination and management.
Comprehensive Primary Care initiative (CPC initiative): A multipayer initiative overseen by CMS' Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation that fosters collaboration between public and private payers to strengthen primary care; the initiative first will be tested in seven regions across the United States and features a blended payment model that combines fee-for-service with a per-patient, per-month care coordination fee and the opportunity for shared savings.
Disease registry: A system that tracks all patients with a particular disease or condition and that is used to ensure patients receive evidence-based care and preventive services on a timely basis.
Episodic payment: A single payment made to health care professionals for all services provided to a patient for an entire episode of care; for example, all of the inpatient and outpatient services provided to a patient following a heart attack.
Fee-for-service (FFS): A payment method by which physicians and other health care professionals are paid separately for each service provided; FFS payment also is applicable to entities providing services such as lab tests and imaging studies.
Global payment (or global capitation): A fixed payment made to health care professionals or organizations for the care their patients may require during a contract period regardless of how many services are provided to patients and that can be adjusted to account for severity of illness.
Group visit: A type of medical appointment most often used for treatment of patients with chronic diseases, such as asthma or diabetes, that provides patients with the opportunity to interact with other patients in a group setting facilitated by a physician or other health care professional.
International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM):
A standardized system currently used in the United States that classifies diseases, injuries and external causes by etiology and anatomic location and assigns each entry an identifier that may be up to five alpha-numeric characters in length.
International Classification of Disease, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM):
A standardized system of disease classification that will replace ICD-9-CM on Oct. 1, 2014 and thereby, increase the number of diagnosis codes from about 13,000 codes to more than 68,000 codes.
Independent practice association (IPA): An independent group of physicians who legally organize as an entity and agree to contract as a group to provide patient services; the practices maintain their own offices and continue to see their own patients.
Medicare Advance Payment Model: An ACO intended by CMS to be physician-based and/or rural and that allows selected participants to receive upfront monthly payments to help offset the cost of creating the necessary care coordination infrastructure; advance funding later will be deducted from any shared savings determination.
Medicare Pioneer Model: An ACO intended by CMS to specifically assist health care organizations and health care professionals who already are experienced in coordinating care for patients across settings and that allows CMS to pay a portion of money directly to the ACO in the later years of the contract.
Medicare Shared Saving Program: A program established by CMS to facilitate coordination and cooperation among health care professionals so as to improve the quality of care received by Medicare patients while reducing the cost of that care; the model requires FFS payment to physicians and other professionals throughout the course of the program with a potential for shared savings distribution at the end. Participants must be part of an ACO.
Patient registry: A patient database maintained by a physician practice, hospital or health plan that allows health care professionals to identify their patients according to disease or demographic characteristics and helps them monitor treatment and improve overall quality of care.
Regional health information organization (RHIO): A multi-stakeholder organization created to facilitate the electronic transfer of health information across organizations and communities.
Regional extension center (REC): One of as many as 70 organizations defined by a specific geographic area, funded through the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act, and charged with helping physicians choose, implement and achieve meaningful use of electronic health records.
Relative value units (RVUs): One element in the formula used to calculate the Medicare allowance for a given service in a specific fee schedule area; each Medicare physician fee schedule service is assigned RVUs for physician work, for practice expenses and malpractice expenses.
Resource-based relative value scale (RBRVS): The list of services and RVUs from which Medicare physician payment is determined; services are assigned a relative value that is adjusted by a geographic price cost index (GPCI) and multiplied by a conversion factor.
Risk adjustment: A statistical process of adjusting payment that takes into account the underlying health status of individuals when looking at their health care outcomes or health care costs.
Shared savings: A payment strategy that offers incentives to physicians to reduce health care spending for a defined patient population by offering physicians a percentage of the net savings realized as a result of their efforts. Savings typically are calculated as the difference between actual and expected expenditures and then shared between the payer and physicians.
Team-based care: The delivery of comprehensive health care services to a patient by two or more physicians or other health care professionals who work collaboratively with the patient and the family to provide care that is timely, efficient, effective and patient-centered.
Triple aim in health care: A framework developed by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement that aims to optimize the U.S. health care system by enhancing the patient experience, improving the health of populations and reducing the per capita cost of health care.
Value-based purchasing: A form of payment that holds physicians accountable for the cost and quality of care they provide to patients; the overall goal is to reduce inappropriate care and reward physicians, other health care professionals and organizations for delivering value to patients.

Residue Testing FAQs
Residue testing is a complicated process, and you're likely to have questions. If none of these FAQs address your specific question, please contact us.
Ion Chromatography
Q. What is ion chromatography?
A. Ion chromatography is an analytical test method which separates, identifies, and quantifies each individual contaminant species present in a sample solution. By species, we refer to basic elements, such as chloride or bromide, or molecular compounds, such as sulfates or weak organic acids. By knowing the specific conductive species, we can make a better determination of which residues are harmful, how much of a harmful material equates to poor assembly performance and, usually, the likely source.
Q. What does ion chromatography (IC) tell me that my bulk ionic contamination tester will not?
A. A BIC (bulk ion contamination) tester will only indicate how conductive a solution is, not what elements are present which make the solution conductive. IC testing will determine which specific ionic materials are present and in what amounts.
Q. What kind of residue does ion chromatography (IC) detect?
A. As useful as IC is, it will not detect all residues. To our knowledge, no single analytical equipment or test method will detect all residues. Maybe NASA has something, but they haven't told us! IC will detect residues which: 1) can be brought into solution by an extraction method; 2) are electrically conductive to some degree. If a residue simply cannot be dissolved by a reasonable solvent (one which does not destroy the assembly itself), then there would be no contaminants in the solution to detect. Also, if the residue was an insulative material, and conducted no electricity, it could not be detected by the precision conductivity meter that is part of the IC equipment. Other test methods, such as high pressure liquid chromatography or mass spectroscopy can be used to detect such non-conductive residues.
Q. Are there accepted pass/fail limits for ion chromatography in military or commercial specifications?
A. At present, the answer is no. IC testing in the electronics industry is still relatively new and has not made its way into many specifications yet. The only specifications where IC is referenced are J-STD-004 and MIL-F-14256, which allow the use of IC as an acceptable method of determining the halide concentration in fluxes. We are presently involved with several national specification efforts, and are working on the incorporation of IC as an accepted process evaluation tool. We have our own set of recommended pass/fail limits, depending on the flux chemistry involved.
Q. Is ion chromatography (IC) a destructive test?
A. That depends. The destructiveness of IC testing is dependent on the extraction technique used. For most tests we do, the extraction solution is iospropanol and water (75/25), the same as in BIC testers, but the temperature is 80°C and the extraction time is 60 minutes. While this does not exactly destroy the assembly, many of the materials involved may be sufficiently altered such that the reliability of the assembly could be compromised. However, by modifying the extraction technique, either using alternative solvents such as pure water, or by using lower temperatures and longer extraction times, the IC analysis can be non-destructive. This becomes particularly attractive when analyzing expensive assemblies. If an assembly contains components or materials which are susceptible to either isopropanol or water, then the IC method would be considered destructive, regardless of the time or temperature used in the extraction method.
Q. How much does ion chromatography cost as a service?
A. Several independent test laboratories offer IC as a service, along with some major corporations. The difference at Foresite is that we also interpret the data (included in the project price) and work with our customers to determine root cause and correct the underlying issue. For a price quote, contact us.
Other residue testing questions
Q. What is ionic contamination?
A. Ionic contamination refers to any electrically conductive residue remaining on an electronics assembly. Not all ionic materials, as measured in some ionics tests, are detrimental to circuit reliability.
Q. How do the residue testing facilities rate in terms of cost?
A. This is not something we can objectively cover here. You will probably find Foresite to be more expensive than other labs due to the interpretation we include. We do not offer a data-only option because the raw data can often lead the customer down the wrong path.
Q. What is meant by co-elution?
A. Ion chromatography, like any chromatographic method, is used to separate a solution into its various components for individual analysis. Separation is attained by passing the solution through a column of specially charged resin. Different materials move through the resin at different rates, eventually resulting in separation of most materials. Some materials, though, pass through the resin at the same rate, even though they are different materials. The two materials come out at the same point in the spectrum and so are said to co-elute.
Q. How do I know when to be concerned about polyglycol? Can I just look at what chemicals I am using in my process?
A. Looking at the MSDS sheets will often tell you if a polyglycol material is present as a material element. Unfortunately, there is not a good way to tell if you have adequately removed the polyglycol residues from the substrate. We often suspect polyglycol residues when we see electrical leakage failures on hardware in humid environments, but no corrosion or metal migration.
Q. What are the factors that can collectively cause corrosion?
A. Electrochemical failures consist of three elements: electrical potential, ionic contaminants, and moisture. The relative amounts of each factor determines what failure mechanism predominates, and at what speeds.
Q. SIR Testing: How does it work?
A. The concept is simple. Take a substrate designed for SIR testing, solder wires to the test pattern, put it in a temperature/humidity chamber and apply an electrical potential. Measure the insulation resistance periodically and watch how it changes. Knowing how to consistently run the test, for repeatable results, and how to interpret the data are the hard parts.
Q. Can my BIC (bulk ion contamination) tester be used to analyze non-rosin flux technology assemblies?
A. The use of a BIC tester is not recommended as a process evaluation tool, but can be successfully used as a process control tool. The BICs were all developed based on rosin fluxes and the properties of rosins. Newer flux technologies are based on very low levels of rosin, or resin – the solubilities are different; the chemicals are different. Many of the newer flux technologies have electrically conductive elements which are not harmful to the long-term reliability of electronics. A BIC tester cannot distinguish between harmful and non-harmful residues. A BIC tester can be used as a process control tool to determine changes in contamination levels, but it is important to understand what the BIC response means.
Note: An excellent report, published by the Electronics Manufacturing Productivity Facility (Report number RR0013, phone 317-226-5634) discusses many of the relevant issues regarding BIC testers and their applicability to various technologies.
Q. What is the correlation between the response of a BIC (bulk ion contamination) tester and ion chromatography (IC)?
A. Good question! At present the correlation is very general at best. An increase in BIC response will generally correspond to increases in ionic species as measured by IC, but not always. IC is more repeatable and precise than a BIC. There are extraneous factors in a BIC, the most predominant one being the mixing of carbon dioxide from the air which alters the conductivity of the solution.
Q. Your test reports show recommended levels for various anions found. How do you arrive at these values?
A. These values come from the failure analysis projects we do with clients. Let us say we do an evaluation of an assembly that is experiencing corrosion or metal migration problems. Anion levels are measured at Level X. Cleaning up the residues to Level Y seems to cure the problem. Therefore, the threshold (Z) of the problem lies somewhere between levels X and Y. Over time, that threshold becomes more statistically valid with the execution of similar projects. In general, chloride levels over Z1 can cause problems. Bromide levels over Z2 can cause problems. There are no guarantees because every assembly has its own sensitivity.
Q. Do you have an MSDS for the C3 Extraction Solution that I could download?
A. Yes, you can download the MSDS from the C3 page.

Trimbakeshwar or Trambakeshwar is a ancient temple located in the town of Trimbak in the Nashik district of Maharastra India, 28 km from the city of Nashik. The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas.
The Pilgrimage centre is located at the source of the Godavari river which is considered to be the sacred with Hinduism. As per Shiv MahaPurana once Brahma. The jyothirlinga shrines are places where Shiva appeared as a fiery column of light. Originally there were believed to be 64 jyothirlingas while 12 of them are considered to be very auspicious and holy. Each of the twelve jyothirlinga sites take the name of the presiding deity – each considered different manifestation of Shiva. At all these sites, the primary image is lingam representing the beginning less and endless Stambha pillar, symbolizing the infinite nature of Shiva. The twelve jyothirlinga are Somnath in Gujarat, Mallikarjuna at Srisailam in Andhra Pradesh, Mahakaleswar at Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh, Omkareshwar in Madhya Pradesh, Kedarnath in Himalayas, Bhimashankar in Maharastra, Viswanath at Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh, Triambakeshwar in Maharastra, Vaidyanath at Deoghar in Jharkand, Nageswar at Dwarka in Gujarat, Rameshwar at Rameswaram in Tamil Nadu and Grishneshwar at Aurangabad in Maharastra.
The extraordinary feature of the Jyotirlinga located here is its three faces embodying Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu and Lord Rudra. Due to excessive use of water, the linga has started to erode. It is said that this erosion symbolizes the eroding nature of human society.

Name and Location: Maria Hartz – 210 Partridge
Hometown: Scotia, NY
Reason for becoming an RA: I became an RA because I had such a great RA my freshman year that I became so close to and am now lucky enough to call her my best friend. She inspired me to want to make a difference in the lives of residents the way that she made a difference in mine, and make their living experience on campus a great one.
Favorite thing about the job: My favorite thing about the job is being able to work with such a great staff of other RA's not only in my zones but all across campus. My zone has become such a great support system for me during my transition to being an RA, and I am so lucky to have such a great group of people to call my co-workers and friends!
Most memorable RA moment: My most memorable RA moment so far has to be the first night of this semester, when all of my residents moved back in to the house. A bunch of my residents and I were just hanging out in our common room, chatting about our classes, our excitement and nerves for the new semester, and just about everything you could think of.
It was the perfect moment that assured me that my semester with my residents was going to be a great one, and every worry that I had about being their new RA quickly went away!
What people should know about RAs: You should know that we are here for YOU, our residents! You are more important to us than you know, and we care a lot about you!
Favorite class at Saint Rose: The best class I have taken thus far definitely has to be SED 225 – Including Students with Disabilities in the General Education Setting. It was the first Special Education class I have ever taken, and I learned so much more about teaching students with disabilities than I could have ever imagined. It also provided me with the opportunity to do observation hours in a great middle school, and I still miss the students that were in my classroom!
Goals after graduation: I want to teach high school or middle school Spanish or teach English to English Language Learners!
Favorite Albany hangout: Most recently, my friends and I have been loving hanging out at Tierra Coffee Roasters and doing homework on Sunday mornings! It's been a great and (almost) productive place to get things done!
Favorite late night snack: String Cheese!
Random fun fact: I regularly enjoy long walks on the beach, watching Netflix with my cat, and underwater basket weaving.

"The art of living, isn't that a funny expression?" ~ Anne Frank
New Years is upon us. The dying of one year and the birth of a new one. 2015 has ended, there will never be another. That chapter of our lives has closed; the next one is about to begin. So on this, the last day of a dying year, I share my reflections on life (at least the short one I have lived).
'The art of living' as Anne observed does seem a strange expression. After all what is there to life? We all have one don't we? Is it not what some 7 Billion people spend all their time doing? Where is the 'art' in that? Can life itself really be an art?
My answer to that would be yes, life is an art. For what is art? Art is a work of skill and creativity. An image or creation. Created to be appreciated for the beauty of the work and the skill of the artist. A message to the world from its Creator.
By that definition are we not ourselves a work of art? Beautiful and intricate works of God the Master artist. Masterpieces, and His messages to the world. Just as scribbles, lines, and dabs of paint make up a piece of art. So also the everyday events of our lives are used by the Master Artist to make and shape us.
New Years is not only a time of reflection but also of resolve. Every year thousands of people resolve to lose weight, read more, and worry less. Each year we resolve anew to weed out 'faults' and become at last that perfect ideal we all create for ourselves. I have done this myself many times. Every year I resolve to lose those extra pounds, to take more risks, and to finally become that trim, attractive, and oh so successful person I have created in mind. And while there is nothing wrong with setting goals and forming good habits that is not what I resolve this year. This year I resolve to live artfully.
I resolve to read, laugh, and sing. To stop and smell the flowers, look up at the sky, and thank the Lord for His bounty, His blessings. To notice and remember the little things. For often when we look back we find that they were the big things. I resolve to find joy in each thing He puts in each day; each person, each problem, each pleasure. To smile more. We must never underestimate the power in a smile, a kind word, or thoughtful action. They may mean more than we will ever know. To borrow a line from The Hobbit, "It is the everyday actions of ordinary people. Small acts of kindness and love that keep the darkness at bay."
I resolve to learn to live as His Masterpiece. To live artfully is to live with intent. It is to live with a goal in mind. It is to live in a way that reflects the beauty and purpose of our Creator, the Master Artist. There is such joy and fulfillment in just being what he intended us to be. In just doing what we were meant to do; glorify our Creator and enjoy the good gifts He has given us. The good things and the bad. Easy and hard.
This year I ask that God help us all to remember what we are. His workmanship, created for good works. That we would all remember who we are; masterpieces of the Creator. Beautiful, living, works of art. Sent to enjoy the world we live in and bring glory to God who made it. This year let's forget about all the self-improvement. Instead let's remember the Masterpieces we are and live like it.

After dwelling on the state's bleak-and-getting-bleaker budget picture, let's look at some good economic news. In this export-oriented state, exports are creeping back up. Not nearly to the level they were at before the economic crisis began in late 2008. But still, the news is good.
Beacon Economics reported that exports were up more than $430 million in September 2010 from the previous month, and were up more than $1.9 billion from September 2009. Total exports for September 2010 amounted to more than $12 billion. Big jumps in exports to Taiwan and South Korea seemed to be driving the numbers.
One lingering concern for California policymakers. The state is not nearly as competitive as it should be, accounting for less than 12 percent of U.S. exports. In the early part of the last decade, California accounted for more than 15 percent of U.S. exports. The rebound in California has not improved the state's share of U.S. exports.
The top three destinations for our exports in September? Mexico, Canada and Japan, in that order. With China a close fourth. And what are our top exports? 1. electric machinery 2. industrial machinery (a category that includes computers) 3. optical/photo/medical equipment. 4. fruits and nuts 5. aircraft and spacecraft.

After a smooth drive from Dubai, your tour will commence with a visit to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. This architectural marvel is the largest mosque in the UAE and can welcome 40,000 worshipers. It features 82 domes, over a 1,000 columns, 24 carat gold gilded chandeliers, and the world's largest hand knotted carpet. The main prayer hall is dominated by one of the world's largest chandeliers – 32 feet (10 m) in diameter, 49 feet (15 m) in height, and weighing twelve tons. Reflective pools surround the mosque, amplifying its beauty. The 96 columns in the main prayer hall are clad with marble and inlaid with mother of pearl, one of the few places where you will see this craftsmanship.
Then the tour will pass by the area of Al Bateen, which was the first populated area in Abu Dhabi, to reach another architectural marvel – the Emirates Palace Hotel. The Palace is the essence of palatial, yet traditional Arabic architecture and is one of the most inspiring hotels in Abu Dhabi with 114 breath-taking 60 foot-high (18 m) domes, ornate hotel rooms, and luxury suites decorated in gold and marble. It is fitting, then, to drink the signature gold coffee here. Also known as the Palace Cappuccino, this superior blend of aromatic coffee is sprinkled with gold flakes to give you a taste of royalty, making it unlike anything you have ever tried before. Served on a polished silver tray, you can enjoy your cappuccino with a special dates and dark chocolate
Then, proceed to Heritage Village, passing by Corniche beach road to reach Qasr Al Hosn Fort which is Abu Dhabi's symbolic birthplace. Qasr al Hosn began life in the 1760s as a coral and sea stone watchtower, with a commanding position overlooking the sea, later transformed into an impenetrable fort. Due to the shells' reflective effect, the fort's walls would sparkle in the sun offering a welcome coastal navigational tool for the region's merchants. Mangrove was chosen to make the flooring and roof structure due to its natural strength and durability. In the 1950s, an iconic palace enclosed the initial fort and it was transformed into a museum and repository of collections relating to Abu Dhabi and the Gulf.
Take a short drive to the seaplane jetty at Yas Marina to settle into your shared, 9-passenger Cessna aircraft. Listen to a safety briefing and feel the excitement as your plane rises up from the water for your flight back to Dubai. Enjoy the aerial views of Abu Dhabi's skyline and sparkling Arabian Gulf. Climb to up to 1,500 feet (457 meters) and return back to Dubai with great views of the sail-shaped Burj Al-Arab Hotel, Palm Jumeirah, the World Islands, and Burj Khalifa, before landing at historic Dubai Creek.
- 45 minute seaplane flight from Abu Dhabi to Dubai
- Signature gold-sprinkled coffee
- Entrance fees

Command Center: Colonel Scott C. Larrimore
Director, Defense Weather Systems Directorate, Space and Missile Systems Center, Los Angeles Air Force Base
Colonel Larrimore leads a program team of more than 150 government and 500 contractor personnel to provide worldwide strategic and tactical forces with weather and space environmental data to support air, ground, naval, and space operations. His $4 billion portfolio includes launch, check out, and sustainment of the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program Block 5 spacecraft, supporting ground systems, and the development of successor terrestrial and space weather programs. Colonel Larrimore is directly responsible for the development, test, acquisition, and sustainment of these system elements to meet Department of Defense operational requirements. Colonel Larrimore entered the Air Force in 1986 through the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps at Princeton University. He has served in a variety of space operations, acquisition, command, and staff assignments. He is a Senior Materiel Leader, a member of the Department of Defenses Acquisition Corps, and a fully-qualified Joint Specialty Officer. Colonel Larrimore previously commanded at the Squadron and Group levels, and served as an Air Force National Defense Fellow.
MilsatMagazine (MSM)
Good day, Colonel Larrimore... given your service in the United States Air Force since 1986, how did you determine that you wanted to serve and build a career with this branch of our Nations Armed Services?
Colonel Larrimore
As many in my generation, I joined the United States Air Force because of the space program. I remember being glued to the television as a young child, watching with awe and excitement as Neil Armstrong took his tenuous steps on the Moon. Ever since that day, I knew I wanted to help advance our knowledge in this mysterious new environment. The Air Force continues to offer fantastic opportunities to meet this ambition while protecting our nation.
How did you evolve into the space command division of the U.S.A.F.? What aspect(s) of the space programs attracted you to this arena?
Colonel Larrimore
Ive been fortunate to be involved in most major aspects of our space enterprise within the Air Force. I started out in space operations which gave me an appreciation of what capabilities our warfighters need each and every day. Later, I worked more traditional engineering projects which pushed the technological state of the art. Now, I am working larger scale system development and acquisition, linking available technology to affordable and resilient space capabilities our operators need and depend upon.
Looking back to your formative years in middle and high school, and then at Princeton and Purdue, how important was STEM training to your life goals?
Colonel Larrimore
Science, technology, engineering and mathematics form the foundation for innovation and advancement in almost all endeavors, and the space enterprise is no exception. A strong STEM background gave me the tools to understand how and why space systems work the way they do, and what we could do to improve on existing capabilities. STEM remains crucial to our nations technological competitive advantage.
What can the industry, from the military point of view, do to offer more STEM training to ensure an array of qualified personnel for enlistment into the U.S.A.F. and other branches of our services?
Colonel Larrimore
I encourage industry, as well as government, to keep offering engagement opportunities to students across the education spectrum. Demonstrations, competitions, and assistance to schools help generate the sparks of curiosity. Our nations science and math teachers need support throughout the community to ensure they have the resources, material, and access to expertise to nurture their students curiosity into new ideas and invention.
Would you please explain to us exactly what the Defense Weather Systems Directorate provides that supports our armed services and government programs?
Colonel Larrimore
The Defense Weather System Directorate acquires and fields our nations space and spaceborne national security weather systems. We develop and launch the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program, a capability our nation has relied upon in various increments for 50 years. We build upon the DMSP foundation by fielding affordable, smaller space weather sensors; incorporating relevant data from our civil and international partners; and leveraging usable data from non-traditional weather sensors. The Directorate works hand-in-hand with our operational customers at the Air Force Weather Agency (AFWA) and the Navys Fleet Numerical Meteorology and Oceanography Center (FNMOC) to ensure the perishable weather data is getting to the right forecaster to support military operations on land, sea, air, and space.
What is the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program Block 5 program? How important is this program to our overall national security?
Colonel Larrimore
The DMSP Block 5 is the current fleet of weather satellites providing critical weather data to our national strategic leaders and deployed forces. Block 5 actually consists of several increments. We are currently flying the 5D-3 satellite increment, with two spacecraft left to launch and operate. The satellites optical sensors show worldwide cloud data for the Air Force; its microwave sensor tracks typhoons and sea surface winds for the Navy and determines soil moisture for the Army; the satellites space weather sensors help predict GPS weapon accuracy and long distance communication outages. Im pleased to say DMSP will be providing very important support to all Services well into the future.
What support services are required for DMSP missions?
Colonel Larrimore
We operate the DMSP mission (in partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) with several support services. First we need launch services to get the satellites in orbit. We can launch DMSPs on either Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV), the Delta IV or Atlas V.
Once in orbit, we use the Air Force Satellite and Control Network (AFSCN) worldwide antennas for command and telemetry contacts with the spacecraft. We also use dedicated weather ground receive antennas at Fairbanks, Alaska to augment AFSCN. The DMSP system uses a variety of communication services to quickly provide perishable weather data to operational forecasting centers such as AFWA and FNMOC.
How is the acquired weather and space data applied to air, ground, naval and space operations? What sort of delay is there in the transmission of such data to the appropriate command center? Do boots on the ground have access to such operational data when in the field and, if not, when would they be able to acquire this information to ensure mission success and casualties prevention?
Colonel Larrimore
Weather data collected by DMSP is provided to the Services operational forecasting centers. There, a variety of tools and algorithms are applied to generate appropriate weather tools, such as cloud and storm forecasting, typhoon tracking, sea surface wind modeling, and land surface moisture predictions.
The DMSP satellites operate in a 101 min polar orbit. That means that we can collect weather data at least every two hours as the satellite passes over the Fairbanks, Alaska ground site.
In addition, the Air Force and Navy also operate tactical weather receive stations with their MARK IVB and FMQ-17 systems, respectively. These systems take advantage of DMSPs real-time data broadcast capability. Theater commanders can obtain data almost immediately as DMSP satellites fly over the tactical terminal.
With your team, what is the process required to determine the development of current and future programs within your command?
Colonel Larrimore
We follow the procedures provided in Department of Defense Instruction 5000.02, Defense Acquisition System. This structure ensures the requirements for a new system have been validated, several alternatives are considered to choose the most cost effective system to meet those requirements, and the appropriate amount of oversight is applied to guide the acquisition.
The Space Environmental Sensing System plays an important role within the DWS effortscould you explain how such operates and what its goals are in relation to combatant support?
Colonel Larrimore
Our Space Situational Awareness Environmental Monitoring (SSAEM) program satisfies some space weather requirements demanifested from the National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System from that programs Nunn McCurdy recertification in 2006. The program will deploy three payloads: a Global Positioning System (GPS) Radio Occultation sensor that will provide ionospheric research and space weather forecasting as well as atmospheric vertical temperature and moisture profiles; an Ion Velocity Meter (IVM) that measures the in situ ion velocity vector, ion temperature, and ion composition to better predict the affect of the ionosphere on communications; and a radio frequency beacon that will help predict atmospheric scintillation. This is important for GPS weapon accuracy and satellite communication services to deployed forces by better predicting errors attributed to the space environment.
Given your experience with the U.S.A.F., what challenges are ahead for DWSD programs, given current budget restrictions enforced by shortsighted politicians. How will you manage your current and future operations with your hands somewhat tied? And will Space and Missile Systems Center be able to continue to deliver the current high level of support to all troops? If so, how?
Colonel Larrimore
Any new space system will face challenges never experienced before. The space environment is becoming increasingly congested, contested and competitive as new nations, international organizations, and corporations gain the ability to operate in space. The national fiscal environment forces us to address these challenges with a tight focus on affordability. But in the face of these challenges come opportunities.
We have the opportunity today to apply new technologies and methods to create smaller, flexible, and resilient spacecraft to meet our national security needs at a fraction of the cost of past proposals. We also have the opportunity to leverage our civil and international partners investments to ensure we are getting the right weather data to operational forecasters as efficiently and effectively as possible.
Looking back over your career, which projects bring a true sense of satisfaction and a smile to your face?
Colonel Larrimore
At first, one might think about exciting operational accomplishments such as launching the SBIRS GEO-1 satellite or seeing an idea come to fruition such as the GEOlite satellite, but I think Im most gratified when thinking about how teams Ive been associated with have reached out to help others. Its extremely rewarding to see a child in a local elementary school get excited about a subject, become intellectually curious, and yearn to learn. Our Weather Directorate continues this long tradition of community outreach with an active association with local schools.

Somewhere along the venerable Route 7, in the middle of nowhere, you will find Joe's Diner. As an employee working the graveyard shift for the next month, your primary task is to keep the tables clean – no tough challenge at all.
Unfortunately there's a rub to it. The old Diner was built on the site of a former Indian cemetery. Amongst the buried, two rival chieftains are laid to rest while alive each could not stand the other.
One chieftain endeavors only to rest in peace. The other, a prankster both in life and the afterlife, is prone to ruffle the feathers of his fellow chief.

The absolute disaster . . . is when a court masks its exceptional character, as happens nowadays only in totalitarian states: it is when justice swaps black for khaki and well-disciplined officers, often without legal training, are catapulted to the dignity of a judge.

Whether you are absolutely in love with Indian food or are just starting your relationship with it, this is for you my dear. And even if you have no clue about Indian food or are totally intimidated by it, trust me this will make you fall in love. All in all you all are in for an absolutely delicious and easy treat.
Today I am sharing with you all one of the most loved dish of Indian cuisine, 'Tandoori Chicken". Lately I have received lots of email asking me couple of question regarding my preference and views on Indian food, so before I start my recipe today let me try to answer some of the question I am asked repeatedly. Here we go…
1 – Why I don't do more Indian recipes on my blog?
The recipes I share on my blog are what we eat in our home, as you all may have notice that my cooking style is very global and my family enjoys different cuisine. So whatever I cook I share here. From empanadas to samosas, you will find recipes from different part of the world.
2 – Do I don't like Indian cuisine?
I love Indian cuisine; I grew up eating mostly Indian/Asian and Middle-Eastern cuisine. Trust me, the aromas of the exotic spices and ingredients turns me on…LOL. Also most of my recipes get some form of influence from my love of spices….. One thing I have learned is that food has no boundaries.
3 – Is Indian food very difficult to make?
Not at all, I strongly feel that no cuisine is difficult; all you need is to feel comfortable and familiar with its basics. Once you get to know more about the spices and technique used in cooking Indian dishes, trust me Indian food is as simple as any other food. You are always free to shoot me an email in case you have any question and I'll try to answer it to the best of my knowledge.
OK now back to Tandoori Chicken, I have to say Tandoori Chicken is truly a jewel of Indian Cuisine. Loved by all, it can be found in almost every region of India. Tandoori Chicken gets its name from the Ovens called 'Tandoor' they are cooked in. These tandoors are large drum like oven made from clay, heated with charcoal or wood they can reach a very high temperature up to 800-1000° F. This high temperature helps in cooking the surface of the meat very fast and hence sealing all the juices inside.
The marinade here also plays a very important role, yogurt and all the spices gives the chicken the most amazing flavor. You can use lamb, pork, tofu or vegetables whatever you like in the place of chicken with this marinate and cook it. Although most of the spices used for this recipe are pretty common but the Garam Masala (aromatic spice mix), is something you can easily buy from most of the grocery store if you don't already have it. In India you can find many variations for the recipe for this (garam-masala) spice mix.
If you don't want to buy Garam Masala, just make the spice blend at home, I have shared the recipe for it the way I make it in the recipe box.
So go ahead and try this recipe, I am sure you will be making it more.
Note – The deep red color which tandoori chicken has is due to the addition of food color or saffron, it is completely optional to do this. This is done solely for it's look and has absolutely not effect on the taste. So you if don't like you can completely omit this step
- Chicken – 2lbs I use leg pieces cut in halves.
- Oil – 1- 2 Tbsp. for basting.
- Lime juice for sprinkling before serving.
- Marinade –
- Yogurt – 1 cup.
- Ganger paste – 1 tsp.
- Garlic paste – 1 tsp.
- Garam masala powder – ½ tsp.
- Paprika – 1 tsp.
- Cumin powder – 1tsp
- Lime juice – 2 Tbsp.
- Chickpea flour – 2 Tbsp. (Use corn-flour incase chickpea flour is not available)
- Mustard powder – 1 tsp. (if you don't find this, use regular mustard instead)
- Oil – 1 Tbsp.
- Salt – 1 ½ tsp. or as per taste.
- Saffron/ food color – Optional, just enough to add a red touch.
- Cumin – 1 tsp.
- Black peppercorns – 1 tsp.
- Cloves – 1 tsp.
- Cardamom green – 1tsp
- Cinnamon – 1 1-2 inch stick.
- Bay leaf – 2
- Clean and dry chicken pieces; make incisions on the pieces with sharp knife. This helps the marinade to go all the way inside the chicken. Keep aside.
- In a large bowl mix all the ingredients of the marinade and marinate the chicken pieces for 4-6 hours.
- Once ready to cook, preheat the oven to 500°F or the highest. Line the baking sheet with foil and place a cooling rack over it. Now carefully put the chicken on the cooling rack. Bake for 15- 20 minutes; turn them over in the mid-way of cooking. The cooling rack helps in avoiding the contact of chicken with the dripping juices, keeping it crispy on the surface. Keep basting as needed.
- If you want you can also broil or grill it.
- Serve hot with sprinkle of lime juice… Enjoy!!
- Put all the ingredients in a spice blender, Make a fine powder and use as needed. Store in an air-tight container.

Hyundai-Kia will end an unofficial cap on NAFTA-area expansion with a new factory in Monterrey, Mexico.
Reuters is reporting via sources that the new plant will have an annual capacity of 300,000 units, and will build small cars. Hyundai and Kia plants in the United States are running at flat out, and the lack of extra capacity has long been blamed for the inability of both brands to capture more market share in the United States.
While no official announcement has been made, the Mexican plant would allow for more North American capacity, while allowing for less profitable small cars to be made in a jurisdiction with lower labor costs. At the same time, South Korean production is looking less stable, due to labor disputes, a rising currency and higher labor costs. Japanese rivals like Honda and Mazda have already established Mexican production facilities to build similar vehicles.

Wonder if this means that small cars will now be sold under the Hyundai name in Mexico instead of or in addition to the Dodge name?

Marcus36June 2nd, 2014 at 2:29 pm
That is a possibility, and with the value/features/running costs that Hyundai and KIA are known for it would be a good brand to have in the Mexican market.

Yes, that would appear so since Hyundai had terminated its agreement with Chrysler/Fiat.
The expansion of NA production is hardly surprising as H/K both were in need of more capacity.
The report is that this will be a Kia plant; Kia will probably build the Forte and Soul (since NA is by far the Soul's largest market – with expanded Soul production, might see one of the Soul variants headed to production).
Kia still needs more Optima production and Hyundai still needs more Santa Fe Sport/Santa Fe production (which Kia builds for Hyundai at its GA plant) – so might see Elantra production headed to Mexico as well in order to free up capacity at Hyundai's 'Bama plant.

Actually they have started to sell Hyundai Cars under their brand, I live in Monterrey and just saw a big dealership being built for the brand, now not related to Dodge Fiatsler, I will let you know about the factory advances.
The offer so far is the Ix35, Elantra and i10.

This isn't exactly an ideal location for safety's sake. I wonder if they're trying to keep their logistics footprint localized to West Point, GA.
Terrible location if they want to leverage their US man power.

So does anyone here know how much it costs to assemble a car?
I suppose this is just Final assembly costs that are saved (?)
At the low end of the market, I suppose a (say) $500 cost could be passed right on to lowering the sticker price which could make a big difference to low-end new car buyers.
But it would be nice to know how much it costs to say build a Fusion in MI vs one in Ole Mexico (just sayin)

US production would put them at a disadvantage from the start for the Mexico market and Mexican production means no tariff barriers to most of Latin/South America and to Europe (unlike US production) – which is why VW, Audi, Mazda, Honda, Nissan, etc. have all built or expanded production facilities in Mexico.

More importantly, though, expanding production in Mexico means not having to face the never-ending onslaught by the UAW of trying to unionize foreign producers in America.
The unions in Mexico are different than the UAW. In Mexico the unions are ecstatic that they have jobs. With the UAW there is always the whining about CEO pay, employee profit sharing, more pay for less work, and on and on and on and on, ad nauseam.
I'm glad Hyundai/KIA chose this route, no matter where the cars are destined for.

Considering how the southern plants are non UAW I am not sure what your argument is. Also, why are you cheering the demise of American manufacturing jobs.

highdesertcatJune 3rd, 2014 at 7:56 pm
Hillman, those Southern plants may be non-UAW now but there is an ever-present onslaught by the UAW to get them unionized. Word up on The Truth About Cars! Check out stories on VW and M-B, for a start.
The UAW has been one of the main forces behind the demise of American manufacturing jobs when they drove GM and Chrysler into the grave. Ford just barely escaped the UAW's death knell.
Whenever a foreign manufacturer sets up a plant in the US there is always the whining from the UAW to get them organized, even in Right-To-Work states.
With manufacturers choosing to set up shop in Mexico, they bypass all that union sh!t and still get to use the provisions of NAFTA.
It's too bad that the UAW will not be thankful to foreigners and transplants for providing much needed jobs to Americans, UNLESS the UAW can get a piece of that pie by unionizing those plants.
The UAW may have been good for individual members but it hasn't been good for America. They've lost more jobs than they have created.
I see this as a smart move on the part of Hyundai/KIA. I wish more foreign automakers would pick up their toys and move to Mexico. That may keep more Mexicans at home instead of coming over here to suck our resources dry.
bd2June 3rd, 2014 at 3:48 pm
And yet, GM is the only automaker that builds a SUBcompact, the Sonic, in the US and profitably at that.

I read year ago that 2 automakers were serious about investing in MExico – BMW and Hyundai ad now 1 after BMW announced NA plant – small BMW´s and Mini´s to produce and now Kia probably will in next weeks annnounce this MExico plant. Last months there were informations about Hyundai considering their 3rd plant in NA – either USA or Mexico i was sure Mexico , i mean USA has no advantage, MExico has cheaper labour, more FTA´s – Latin America and Europe.
But what surprised me about this news is that it should be KIA plant not Hyundai – i mean it´s not important, because most likely they will produce their cars from both brands anyway, but Hyundai will start MExico operations this summer, they split with Chrysler, but their small cars i10 and 2 more are sold in MExico for years – 1st with Dodge badge, now 2-3 years with Hyundai badge, while Kia has no present in Mexico at all. They could beginn their sales operations there soon, but it´s odd to have plant in coutry where your own cars are not avalaible.
Also i wouldn´t be surprised if Hyundai will announce their Mexico plant too – so they would have 2 plants in Mexico

True – would seem that it would make more sense for Hyundai to be building a Mexico plant 1st, but it appears Hyundai is focusing on another plant in China (they just finished a new one about a year ago).
Agreed that a Hyundai plant in Mexico will eventually happen, but I suppose Kia could build one model for them (as they do the Santa Fe Sport in GA).

Panama Pensionado Visa
The Panama Pensionado Panama Visas is open to citizens of all foreign countries who wants to apply. There are no age restrictions whatsoever. Basically, there are two types of permits and visas under this category:
- The Pensioned Tourist Permits and Retirement Visa; and
- Retirement Pensioner's Visa
The Pensioned Tourist Visa gives the eligibility to the foreign national to live in Panama without restrictions whatsoever indefinitely. For this to be possible the standard Panama Visa Requirement is a proof that they are pensioners. This proof has to be a monthly receipt of at least $500.
The Panama Retirement Pensioner's visa on the other hand is a standard residence permit to live in Panama without restriction only for a 5 year period after which the applicant can submit an application for renewal. The renewals are indefinite. For this Panama visa application to be successful, the applicant must present a proof of minimum income of $750 and a $100 for each dependent the applicant is bringing into Panama. The applicant will also be required to make a fixed term deposit of $200,000. This money will be held in the bank for a 5 year period without breaking the balance.
Applicants are allowed to retain their current national passport and they are also allowed to apply for the Panamanian Citizenship once they qualify. They are free to purchase properties and real estate in their name and are free to bring in their dependents.

MBA experiences: In class simulations
One of the most exhilarating activities during the MBA were the in-class simulations. The direct head-to-head challenges either between teams or individuals are very exciting, and enjoyable if you are an adrenaline junkie. During the RSM EMBA we only had three instances where we were graded on these simulation sessions. The first was the Markstrat marketing simulation… Read More »

Breakdowns in implementing models of organization change
Organizations choose to implement change in order to move towards its ideal state, and to do so is a difficult task to be successful on its first try. Some leaders it comes to naturally, while others may repeatedly fail before they succeed. Breakdowns occur when there is lack of communication in an organization about why change is needed, or when not everyone participates fully in the transition. Often time change agents are hired to consult and manage change due to its complexity. Organizations however should not change just for the sake of change they should evaluate and modify themselves as it becomes necessary to their surroundings.
Who wrote the article?
Andrew Van De Ven and Kangyoung Sun
What was the aim of the article?
Change agents are people who use different strategies in order to help organizations implement change as smoothly as possible. They do this by using two basic strategies: action and reflection. Action requires a change agent to concentrate on correction people or processes that prevent change from 'unfolding' like it should. Reflection demands that the change agent to revise the model of change as it occurs based on the unique structure of each organization. When looking at organizational change it is important for change agents to consider the following things:
· Expanding their repertoire of conceptual models
· Having a framework for diagnosing weakness and typical breakdown in models of change and to be able to suggest suitable remedies
· Being able to recognize when process breakdown may have gone beyond repair or when the remedies create bigger organizational problems than they solve. The authors identify four models of change, why breakdowns occur in each and what organizations can due to counteract them.
Teleology (Planned change)
Applies when the organization moves towards change with a shared goal, and fails when consensus on the goal is not reached. A dissatisfaction with current situation and realization of change.
Typical Breakdowns occur because of a failure to:
-Not everyone recognize when change is needed
-Reach a consensus on goals
-Make mistakes in the actions
-Make small changes over time to allow for individuals to unconsciously adapt
-Communicate and emphasize strengthen relationships
-Everyone plays a role in action plans to share responsibility
Life Cycle (Regulated Change)
Best for regularly predicted change, and fails when the rules for change are followed incorrectly or do not fit the change appropriately.
Typical Breakdowns occur because of a failure to:
-Different consequences between "planners" and "doers"
-Lack of implementation
-Provide justifications for each change implemented for better understanding of those carrying out the change
-Socialization between individuals in the organization in order for better compliance with changes
Dialectic (Conflictive Change)
Refers to separate organizations conflict with one another on an issue, and fail to resolve and move forward.
Typical Breakdowns occur because of a failure to:
-Conflict that remains static
-Unequal power
-Negotiations between people
-Rights based conflict resolution (not recommended)
Evolution (Competitive Change)
The last of the four applies to multiple organizations developing unique products for the same market and fails when variations become too similar or competition is scarce.
Typical Breakdowns occur because of a failure to:
-Similar competition
-Small demand
-Continued to develop variation
Why are these findings important?
This is important in order to identify the best change agent for your organization based on the type of change you are going through. The different mental models exist based on the perspective of each individual agent, but it is important to note that the best change agents are the ones who are open to ideas and different perspectives. Variability in opinion makes it more likely that they will be able to provide a positive outcome based on cross-understandings.
Openness change agents must take into account that organization changes the complexities that the models do not cover. Van De Ven and Poole propose a hypothesis that there are actually 16 models of change but are limited by three basic ideas. From this the authors are attempting to make overall is that the strength of one model is often the weakness of another and vice versa thus being open to different perspectives of change models is important to be able to transition smoothly.
1. Each change process is limited and incomplete.
2. The usefulness of a model depends on the stage of organizational change that is occurring.
3. Each model requires balance of opposing views that are often trying to solve ambiguous and unprecedented change.
A huge component that this interconnectedness brings is that an organization's change may benefit from all of the models, but in different stages of the change itself. They are proposed as: emergence, development, implementation, and diffusion.
The emergence stage falls parallel to the changes that occur in the teleological stage as a result of recognition by the organizational that there is a need for change. While Developmental stage is synonymous with the dialectical stage because competing designs of change implementation that requires a synthesis of all ideas. Both the implementation stage and the diffusion stage integrate themselves throughout the previous two as evolutionary and life cycles.
Overall, each process of organizational change rarely unfolds the way they should, so it is important to be able to remedy the issues as arise.
Where can these results be applied?
Nokia – Life cycle model
It's no surprise that Nokia mobile phones are no longer as popular as they once were when cell phones became the standard form of communication. The rules of the technology game were quickly changing and nokia found itself at a loss. However, in 2014 the Finnish company reinvented themselves and currently has a steadily growing share price. Instead of focusing on mobile phones, they broadened their tech world by buying out Siemens and acquiring Alcatel-Lucent and completely turned around their corporate structure.
Apple – Dialectic model
Another company that almost failed before it started, apple began to focus on making technology elegant and functional for the everyday person. Then conflicting views of the company's future between Steve Jobs and the rest of the executive board caused the company to choose a side and move forward aggressively without resolving the conflict. Only once the squabble was resolved in a compromise by inviting Jobs back to the company were they able to regain the popularity that was apple branding.

There's no way around it, Facebook is changing the way customers consume content and the way marketers advertise.
Facebook users don't just post about their personal lives; they also post news and content that are important to them. Political news, sports scores, funny videos, they even post about their favorite brands & companies — on Facebook, it's all fair game.
The rise of social media, particularly Facebook, forced brands to rethink how they deal with customers. Now, if someone complains on a brand's Facebook page or Twitter account, a customer-service rep responds. News travels fast on social media, and the last thing a brand wants is for an angry customer to tell all his friends about a poor experience. Companies' social media interactions can even make the news. Look at McDonald's Peace Day debacle. How did McDonald's choose to post their response? On Facebook. And since Facebook interactions go both ways, they are seeing the backlash from their customers right on their Facebook page.
Facebook is constantly evolving and so is the way we, as customers and marketers, use it. The following infographic shows just how far Facebook has come since it's inception in 2004. Bluehost has unveiled this infographic looking at both the changes that Facebook has made in its own advertising structure throughout the years, and what this has meant for advertising as a sector.

text: Brown said the government headed by Karzai, centre, had become a 'by-word for corruption' [Reuters] Anti-corruption agency He said he had spoken to Karzai, whose re-election was confirmed this week, several times in recent days and urged progress on the key issues of security, governance, reconciliation, economic development and regional relations.Brown said: "If the government fails to meet these five tests, it will not only have failed its own people, it will have forfeited its right to international support." The prime minister said he had proposed that Karzai draw up a new anti-corruption law, with a new commission advised by a high-profile international figure to investigate fraud and set up new rules for the transparent awarding of contracts. James Bays, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Kabul, the Afghan capital, said: "This follows other similar pressure on Hamid Karzai, we've heard in the last few days from President Obama, from the UN special representative [for Afghanistan] Kai Eide. "All of them passing on the same message that the new Afghan government cannot continue business as usual, and particularly focusing on that issue of corruption. "I think it will be interesting how the Afghan government responds to one point ... in the speech ... which is the suggestion that there should be a new anti-corruption agency. "And he [Brown] mentioned the possibility of a figure of international stature coming in here to run that agency, now I think that will ruffle a few feathers."Electoral fraud Last month, a UN-backed election watchdog found widespread fraud had taken place during the country's August 20 presidential election.A date for a presidential election runoff was announced only to be cancelled after Abdullah Abdullah, Karzai's political rival, withdrew his candidacy citing the government's refusal to reform the election commission. There is growing public unease in the UK about the Afghan mission [EPA] Warning Karzai on government appointments, Brown said: "Cronies and warlords should have no place in the future of a democratic Afghanistan." Brown's remarks came in the course of a bloody week for British troops in Afghanistan with seven soldiers killed since last Saturday. Five were shot by an Afghan policeman on Tuesday, bringing to 230 the number killed since the US-led invasion in October 2001. Training priority The prime minister repeated that the mission was to stop al-Qaeda from using Afghanistan as a base for attacks on Britain and elsewhere, and said it "must not fail". "We cannot, must not and will not walk away," he said. He said more Afghan troops were needed, adding: "The first priority of any government is to provide security for its people. "It is not sustainable to subcontract that task indefinitely to the international community. "So the expansion and training of the Afghan army and police must be the new government's first priority." About 500 British troops are involved in mentoring Afghan soldiers and policemen to help them take over security from international forces, but this role was thrown into question by Tuesday's shooting.
