I cover health IT and Middle Eastern billionaires.
The government-mandated push to implement electronic health records is supposed to centralize patient data, and reduce human medical errors in the process. However, EHRs can introduce a different set of errors, namely software glitches. Just last week, Lifespan which runs five hospitals in Rhode Island disclosed that a prescription mix-up may have affected 2,000 patients. It blamed it on software used to generate medication instructions to discharged patients. How often these kinds of incidents occur, no one knows.
The Department of Health and Human Services asked the Institute of Medicine, an independent organization, to look into safety concerns and make recommendations. The IOM's report, released today, states that "little published evidence exists that quantifies the magnitude of the risk associated with health IT problems." Reason? EHR vendors are partly to blame, because they "discourage the free exchange of safety-related information in their contracts with health care providers. But serious errors involving these technologies–including medication dosing errors, failure to detect fatal illnesses, and treatment delays due to poor human-computer interactions or loss of data–have led to several reported patient deaths and injuries."
The Institute of Medicine report calls for HHS to work with the private sector to evaluate the impact of health IT on patient safety. However, if there's no progress within a year, the FDA should step in and regulate health IT. Hopefully EHR vendors will step up before that happens.
IOM Report on HIT and Patient Safety Addresses Little
My Thoughts on the Findings…
By: Wendy Whittington, MD, MMM, Chief Medical Officer, Anthelio Healthcare Solutions
Last week the Institute of Medicine (IOM) released its report on Health Information Technology and Patient Safety, Health IT and Patient Safety: Building Safer Systems for Better Care. The report reminded readers that the landmark reports, To Err is Human and Crossing the Quality Chasm released over a decade ago enlightened us as a nation that we have a big safety and quality problem in healthcare in this country and challenged us all with a call to action to improve things within the industry. The new report essentially told us that some progress has been made but not enough.
Basically, we haven't done a very good job at all and, in fact, in some settings, things are worse.
The report points out that while Health Information Technology (HIT) holds promise in improving patient safety, it may in fact be part of the problem rather than the solution. However, there is a shortage of adequate studies to present solid facts, but the general consensus, according to the recent report is that things aren't looking good.
The report encouraged a long overdue national discussion, but failed to bring up facts to dig into in the report. Realistically, the authors did the best they could with the information available, but it highlighted the blatant problem that the method with which many healthcare organizations are installing HIT is haphazard and not systematic making it very difficult to know what the facts are.
Many studies exist pointing to increased safety problems with HIT and some, largely around medication errors point to improved results exist as well. The report attempts at guessing the real root of the problem but, lacking real solid data doesn't go so far as to commit to any blanket statements about why we are in such a bind. Rather, it makes a number of recommendations to get us to a more knowledgeable place.
One issue surrounding the HITECH act touched upon in the report should have been looked at a bit deeper. While the HITECH act meant well and while the antiquated paper based way of doing things in healthcare wasn't working, we need to ask a fundamental, but difficult question. Is it possible that the reason we are having such a hard time deciphering the data we have and understanding if HIT is helping or hurting is because we don't have a coherent health care system? Most of us seem to agree that a big missing piece in many of the systems being installed today is interoperability. Lack of a consistent way of doing things within our fractionated delivery system and lack of interoperability seem to go hand in hand.
HIT is the foundation for Healthcare Reform, yet healthcare is allowing too much variability in the systems installed. Not to mention, a large vendor free for all in the market has been encouraged. The very principles that we have set out to achieve – healthcare that is patient centric, prevention oriented, evidence based, efficient and equitable – are often overlooked in the scramble to realize meaningful use dollars. Companies providing HIT are not enticed to play nice with others and profit more when healthcare systems purchase from them, not when they are easily interoperable with potential existing best of breed components.
With all of these disconnects, healthcare is in need of less variability in the systems installed, more interoperability and a clear method for measuring outcomes. A real system needs to be set forth before those involved are able and willing to work well together in unison for the greater good of patient care. If HIT is a platform for reform and a tool to improve quality of care and patient safety, healthcare professionals need to be playing the same game within the facilities that provide care. Evidence based medicine is important and minimizing variability in the practice improves quality and safety.
That said, why are healthcare professionals allowing so much variability in the way they implement HIT? As a start to the solution, the ONC should put more emphasis on standards, reducing variability and improving interoperability in HIT. The IOM report finds that the healthcare industry needs to do a better job at understanding what the problems are with regards to HIT and patient safety.
The report raised good questions, but not enough and not too difficult. The IOM should have been asking even harder questions, such as:
- Would it have been more cost effective for the government to develop a uniform system that works and to provide it at no cost or at a cost that encourages extremely widespread adoption so that healthcare professionals can work uniformly and understand what they are actually working with?
- Are we spending the ARRA stimulus dollars effectively?
- Are we taking steps that will get us to healthcare that is patient centered, evidence based and prevention oriented, efficient and equitable?
- Are we installing systems that will take us wisely into the future? Systems that will help us achieve population health under a revised system of reimbursement?
- Or is it time to take a big deep breath and lay out a plan that is going to work best for the dollars we have to spend.
Now there is something to think about!
Quoting Dr. Ann O'Malley's, March 2011, New England Journal of Medicine article, titled "Tapping the Unmet Potential of Health Information Technology"
"A recent article in the Los Angeles Times described the new phenomenon of hiring computer-savvy undergraduate "scribes" to take notes for physicians during patient encounters and enter the information into electronic health records (EHRs) — a practice that suggests how far we must go to develop EHRs that clinicians will embrace. Of course, the most highly trained professional in the room need not be the one to enter data into the computer, especially during an emergency, but the perceived need for scribes and providers' experiences using EHRs3 raise important questions about both the efficiency of care processes and the usability of current EHRs."

Richard Stallman announced in September 1983 the plan to develop a free software Unix-like operating system called GNU. GNU is the only operating system developed specifically for the sake of users' freedom.
What is GNU?
GNU is a Unix-like operating system that is free software—it respects your freedom. You can install versions of GNU (more precisely, GNU/Linux systems) which are entirely free software.
The GNU Project was launched in 1984 to develop the GNU system. The name "GNU" is a recursive acronym for "GNU's Not Unix!".
A Unix-like operating system is a software collection of applications, libraries, and developer tools, plus a program to allocate resources and talk to the hardware, known as a kernel.
GNU is typically used with a kernel called Linux. This combination is the GNU/Linux operating system. GNU/Linux is used by millions, though many call it "Linux" by mistake.
GNU's own kernel, The Hurd continues to be developed because it is an interesting technical project.
What is Free Software?
"Free software" is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept, you should think of "free" as in "free speech", not as in "free beer".
Free software is a matter of the users' freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software. More precisely, it refers to four kinds of freedom, for the users of the software:
- The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).
- The freedom to study how the program works, and adapt it to your needs (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
- The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2).
- The freedom to improve the program, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits (freedom 3). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
How to pronounce GNU
"GNU" is pronounced g'noo, as one syllable, like saying "grew" but replacing the r with n.

Some speculate Emma Lamb Young would know her way around the Clinton Public Library if she could see it today. After all, she donated the land where the more than century-old Carnegie building sits.
But would she judge a pie-baking contest, talk about plans for the future of the building or watch children snatch free books while rock and roll played in the background?
She did Saturday. In spirit, that is.
Clinton Public Library Director Amy Birtell donned an Emma Lamb Young-inspired ensemble Saturday during the library's annual celebration. Birtell was able to channel some inspiration and excitement for the day, although there was plenty to go around.
The Clinton Public Library's Autumn Fest brought dozens of Clinton- area residents together Saturday in a flurry of books, games and fun.
"It has been a fantastic day," Birtell said. "I've seen a lot of new faces. It's really been a success."
Autumn Fest brought out dedicated patrons such as Natalie and Ryan Jackson, of Clinton, who have attended story time since their oldest son, Jake, 10, was a baby.
"We love coming to the library especially for events like this. It's free family fun and it's a beautiful day," Natalie said.
While Saturday brought rain, it didn't come until after Autumn Fest ended, leaving families and residents to enjoy themselves.
Among the games, face painting and balloon animals, children and adults were invited to walk through the book maze, where they could choose on free book from a variety that had been donated to the library.
"I really like the book maze and that everyone got to take a book home. That was a nice surprise," Natalie said.
Artist Sarah Haas performed after a presentation from residents of sustainable living community, moonCatlife, which is outside of Fulton, Ill. One Brick Shy also performed.
In addition to bringing in families who frequent the library, the fest attracted some people who haven't explored the library's opportunities or heard the possibilities for the future.
Architect Rob Winters, who has been working on the library's needs assessment, along with Birtell, presented the plans for a $12 million library renovation and expansion Saturday to around 15 interested residents.
Among them Pat Outzen, of Clinton, who was pleased to see what the library could look like with enough funds.
"This is my first time seeing the plans and I'm impressed with what's been put together. It's something we really need," Outzen said. "I really like the building design. They talked about how it will look when you come over the bridge and I think what's on the outside is impressive. What's on the inside will be even more impressive."
Birtell explained that if Emma Lamb Young could see the library today she would know the space, but be intrigued by how the library is used. The prominent role of technology, the need for small meeting rooms and adult literacy programs all contribute to the need for an updated space, she said.
While the Autumn Fest was a chance for fun, it also was a chance for Birtell to gain some insight.
"I have talked to so many people about the library renovations and gotten feedback from them. This is just the beginning of this kind of public presentation," Birtell said. "We want to be able to show people what the plans are so we can address the needs of the library, which are the needs of Clinton."

BrightSpark™ Testimonials
Natural remedy to calm hyperactivity and reduce attention problems in hyperactive children.
"I just want to let everyone know that this product has changed my son's life, and mine! ...I lost my son....he was tired, he cut himself, he would not listen, he was angry, and was always getting in some kind of trouble at school. I knew that that this wasn't my son, and that the doctors were making him worse. I tried other natural products from the stores, but they didn't work enough for me to tell a difference. Frustrated and sad, I stayed up one night for hours. I stumbled across your site, and decided to give it a try. I can tell you that it took only a week to see my son coming back to me, and a month to see the real person inside of him. He has been on BrightSpark for a few months now. He is happy, he smiles, he listens, he talks to me, and he is doing so well in school-- the teachers wanted to know what I did!!!!!!! I'm so happy with BrightSpark... I wish everyone knew about this product!!! ... I see a... happy boy now!!!!!!!!! Thank you."
- Tammy S., USA
"It has only been a few days, and there is already a noticeable difference. My grandson is much calmer and happier. This is a product that will benefit the entire family, while only one of us is taking it! Thank you so much, Native Remedies."
- Kathy M., CT, USA
"My 5 year old son was diagnosed… Not being advocates of medicating, we sought alternative remedies to help him with his behavior problems. We tried a competitor herbal remedy for many months without any results. I then found Native Remedies online and liked how excellent their customer service representatives were in answering my questions. We started our son on the BrightSpark and Focus Formula and it took 3 months for us to see results but when we did...wow! He went from getting into trouble almost every day at school, to only getting into trouble very infrequently. Don't give up if it doesn't work right away! Everyone is different in how long it takes their body to adjust to it and it may take some time. The results are so worth it!"
- Kelly, NC, USA
"My 14 year old son has been taking BrightSpark and Focus Formula for his problem, but he has still had some [problems] he was dealing with. I ordered Tic Tamer and he is so happy... He can finally feel normal...Thank you Native Remedies for another great product we will never live without…"
- Gina G., GA, USA
"I realized my 5 year old son had [problems], I was worried about a doctor putting him on medication. I has read many articles on the internet and wasn't even sure if I wanted him diagnosed. I read about BrightSpark and ordered it. After 3-4 months, almost all symptoms were gone and the ones remaining were so infrequent that you wouldn't even notice them. My husband wasn't convinced it was due to the BrightSpark until I had the flu over New Year. My husband wasn't giving our son the BrightSpark three times a day and may have even skipped a whole day or two. The head jerks came back in full force about 5 days later. Our son is now back on the proper dosage of BrightSpark and his head jerks are lessening again. However, since the symptoms came back when he wasn't taking Bright Spark, I am taking him to a specialist next month where I will share my results of BrightSpark with him. Thank you again!"
- K. McMillan, OH, USA
"I can't believe it. I was contemplating removing my son from his current school because I was afraid he would eventually get suspended. I was so tired and frustrated. I constantly got notices and [had] meetings with teachers about his behavior, he hits, constantly talking or laughing in class. The Teacher [would] complain that he [was] disruptive in class and had difficulty keeping friends. I was worried about him. But looking back this started back in preschool. He was dismissed from 2 preschools. I thought at first that he would grow out of it. Every school year I thought this is the year he's going to turn around, until this year in 5th grade, his grades were starting to suffer, he was having a hard time with reading and was sent to the principal's office numerous times. He got kicked out of the Drama production at school due to his behavior. His therapist referred him to a Psychiatrist that instantly diagnosed him… I was terrified hearing it, although deep down I suspected it. Now what should I do? I did not want to put him on meds, so I started searching the internet for some other alternatives; I came across the website and ordered Focus Formula and BrightSpark. My next appt with the psychiatrist was to determine what meds we were going to start him on. But I had already started him on Focus Formula and BrightSpark for at least a week prior. His teacher suspected I picked him up early from school for a Dr's appointments and gave him a written note saying that his behavior was much improved. He was much calmer, we are in the last quarter of the grading period and he is getting A's and B's and I am amazed.Thanks so much."
- Lola, FL, USA
"I researched online and came across your website. I ordered Focus Formula and BrightSpark… We were amazed at how this works. I also have a 15 year old daughter that was having proble"…ms with studying in school and she was a bit moody. We had her try the Focus Formula and after a little over a week there was major improvement in her attitude and focus on her schooling. I can't thank you enough for this product!"
- Kathy Johnson, MD, USA
"My daughter started BrightSpark last summer. We tried it for 6 months and it was surely helping. We took her off it after 6 months and her … symptoms came back loud and clear. She was loud… and impulsive. My husband didn't always believe that BrightSpark was helping her but could definitely see the difference when she was no longer on it. We put our daughter back on BrightSpark and we can see how it really helps her and will continue her on it as long as she needs it. Daphne is 6 years old and soon to be 7. At 5 years old, …we went to a naturopathic doctor who I must say put her on too many things that made her more hyper but there were some things that indeed helped her that we went back to. First of all, and most significantly, dairy allergies so we put her on a strict dairy free diet. Going completely dairy free is quite difficult and we are still learning in this regard. We also found that fish oil really helped Daphne and would help her fall to sleep at night… We also give her a liquid calcium supplement. And, of course, we give her BrightSpark. Daphne went from getting up every 15 minutes from her school desk when first starting grade 1 to not getting up at all. Her grades are mostly B's with some C's. Daphne's concentration is not as good in the afternoons after lunch from 1:00 to 3:30 so she receives assistance at that time in school but otherwise she pulls it off in the mornings. Daphne has an IEP in place as well and her teacher says she has come a long way since September. She is actually reading now quite successfully. Daphne is very good at swimming (passed the deep end test), ice-skating, advanced gymnastics and skateboarding. She just completed Step 1 in snowboarding at 6 years old. We are much happier helping her this way… and we are quite proud of her. Daphne has a natural enthusiasm and happiness for life … we are happy to have Daphne back."
- Patty, Ontario, Canada
"I can honestly say I see a change in my son, he is less emotional and his appetite has returned slightly. He is not as hyper, but still can be when having the slightest sweet. I will definitely be continuing with BrightSpark and Focus Formula as I am sure he will benefit from this."— Yvonne
"Our 8 1/2 year old son had been on [prescription medication] for 2 years. I searched and searched for something to control his impulsivity… That's when I found your website. He has been on BrightSpark for only 2 weeks and he is a happy go lucky and very typical little boy. The irritability and loss of appetite… has dissipated. He controls his impulses so much better now than he did… it is wonderful to hear him say, "Mommy, I'm hungry. Can I please have a snack." Not only is he hungry but is polite and respectful. Thank you for this amazing product."— Gi, MO, USA
"My husband and I tried Focus Formula and BrightSpark for our son. He was always getting into trouble and missing school work. After, having a meeting with school and already knowing he had [behavioral issues]… My husband did some research on the web, and read testimonials from other concerned parents who received good results. He ordered both supplements. We started him on it during spring break. Upon returning to school within a week we saw a big difference in his school performance. His teacher sent home a note saying she noticed a difference in him. We recommend it to anyone who says their child has [behavioral issues]…"— Kheun B., TX, USA
"My son was diagnosed… By the 2nd grade, his classroom behavior and social issues were resulting in daily notes home. I resisted putting him on [medication] — but I felt like I was running out of options. After reading the testimonials for BrightSpark and Focus Formula — I figured, "what could it hurt". This was my last hope — and I really did not expect much. To my surprise, I saw improvements in his daily school feedback from the teacher within 2 weeks. His teacher told me that whatever we were doing — keep it up. Even his therapist has been surprised by the difference. Look, he still has his moments… but the change in his behavior and his focus has been wonderful — Far better than I ever expected when I first placed my order."— Kathy, NY, USA
"Our son started having problems in first grade. He had trouble concentrating, staying on task and completing his school work. His teacher suggested we have him tested. We had him tested, but our doctor said he didn't have [behavioral problems], as we were relieved, it didn't help us solve our problem of what to do for him. We tried several products and changed his diet. He made it through first grade, but it was a struggle. Just before he started second grade, I came across your products. I read the testimonials and discussed with my husband giving it a try. I ordered my first bottles of each product… towards the end of the first week of school, your product arrived. I was pleased with how easily he accepted taking the products, as this had been half the battle with the products we tried last year. Most of them tasted horrible! He really has no problem taking your products. After a few days of taking BrightSpark and Focus [Formula], he was able to focus better and get more work done. After three weeks, he is no longer bringing class work home, as he gets all of it done at school. His grades are improving, and his confidence is improving. Thank you Native Remedies! You've given us our bright young son back! His teacher called me two nights ago to tell me how much he had improved, and what a pleasure he is to have in class!"— Aleisa, GA, USA
"All I can say is BrightSpark and [Triple Complex] Brain Tonic did wonders within two weeks. This was confirmed by the school educator; the kid will be placed back into mainstream education as from September!"— Braam R.
"…BrightSpark has made a positive difference to the concentration span and energy levels of our son and we have placed another order. In addition, we are going to try your Focus Formula in combination with BrightSpark... Many thanks! "— Lesley H.
"My 9 year old son [has attention issues]…I ordered the products a bit skeptical, in a last ditch effort… after only 1 week of use, his teachers are raving about his improvement with focus and concentration. My son as well is more confident in himself and notices a difference. I have scoured the internet for endless nights and have finally found something safe and effective... recommend it highly..."—Kim A., USA
"I order the BrightSpark because I was at my wits end with my 5 year old. He started Kindergarten and everyday the teachers were calling my work, he had a bad report everyday. The day the BrightSpark came in the mail I went to the school and started the program. He got a better report that day but still not great. The next day, I could see a change in him, he was less jumpy, and overly active. Thank you BrightSpark for this product. Now I'm going to order more for him and start my husband on the Focus ADDult. You may have save more then my child- my marriage, because my husband was blaming me for his behavior. Thank you so much for such a wonderful product."— Retha, CA, USA
"I started my 4-year-old son on the BrightSpark and Focus Formula combination almost 2 months ago. At first, I was really skeptical about the whole natural approach to help his [attention problems]. There were days I was about ready to throw the bottles out the window because I was surely convinced they were not working. I am very happy to report that I did not give up and all of a sudden I noticed a change about three days ago. It's a dramatic difference and he got great reports at daycare and preschool for the first time in months. I love these products and will continue to keep my son on them as I have seen the changes it has made for him. They are very right when they say on here that consistency is the key with these products. If you feel like giving up, please don't! Give them a chance to work and you will be very pleased with the results."— Faith, OH, USA
"My son was on BrightSpark, MindSoothe Jr. and Focus Formula for 9 weeks before we noticed a big change. As soon as he started taking the supplements we noticed a change in overall behavior but not much changed at school. Since we did not have a better plan we decided to stick with it and started scheduling the doses for consistency making sure the BrightSpark was 1 hour before a meal or at least 2 hours after. My husband and I carry the vials with us since they are so handy and easy to carry. At the 9 week mark it all seemed to click and now he gets good reports from school and we are all much happier - most importantly he is very happy with himself. We recently added PureCalm to deal with his anxiety and that seems to be the one that ties it all together for him. My son is very much involved with the schedule and will remind us if we forget. He is so happy and well adjusted to school now. He is by no means perfect but his outbursts have gone from 3 or 4 a week to 1 every month or so. Also, when he does have trouble in school it is so much less severe and he is able to bring himself in line much faster. For those of you who have been trying it, believe it does not work, just keep at it with a diligent effort to use it as directed. It might take 9 weeks like it did for my sons. Thank you Native Remedies."—Sharon, FL, USA
"Thank u very much for a wonderful product. I could already see the difference within the first week... Thank u and God bless."—Mrs. Jeanene V. H.
"I started my child on BrightSpark 1 week ago and I can not believe the difference I have seen. My child sees a child psychologist and she has notice the difference as well I only wish it was made available in Australia. I will tell anyone who will listen that you don't have to put your child on [medications] and I feel so much better about myself as a mother that the guilt has gone knowing I don't have to give my child [medications].Thank you so much from Down Under."—Mary C., Australia
"I have been using BrightSpark and Focus Formula on my twin toddler boys for the last three weeks and was kind of hesitant on believing that there was a difference, but since I ran out before I could get another order delivered on time, I definitely see a BIG difference in their demeanor/behavior. The BrightSpark definitely took off the edge in their hyper behavior and impulsiveness… it noticeably did have a more calming effect on them. I never really noticed it until I ran out of pills and in two days, the crying and the impulsiveness came back ten times worse… I can surely say it made my everyday life with the twins bearable for me and my husband... I am waiting anxiously for my second shipment to arrive. Next time, I won't wait [and run out]."—Maria, CA, USA
"Everyday I would walk to the school gates with butterflies in my tummy, dreading being called in by the teachers to hear which child my son had pushed or hit that day. He's 4 years old, and he couldn't keep his body still in carpet time at school, and he couldn't stand in line without swinging his bag or pushing another child. Since BrightSpark, my life has changed. He runs to me at the gates everyday now shouting; "MUM! I've been a good boy!" and his teacher is often behind him giving me the thumbs up. It's changed our lives. He has a speaking part in his upcoming Christmas play, which he normally would have just disrupted. I'm so so proud of him. Just 4 weeks ago he was in trouble at school on a Friday. I started him on BrightSpark on the Saturday, and by the Monday, his behavior had turned around. I've never written a testimonial before in my life, but this product has had such an effect on my life I couldn't keep it to myself. Corny as it sounds, it's been like a miracle for us. Whoever designed this product, you are my hero!"—Natalie A., Middlesex, UK
"I started my 8-year-old…son [with attention problems] on BrightSpark and Focus [Formula] on October 1. I was very optimistic and had a good feeling about it though at the same time, was very skeptical and would have doubts here and there. I started to notice changes after about 4 weeks. He was playing board games. He never did that before. Sitting with his brother in the sandbox for over an hour, that was a new one, then he asked to go to the library to get books. He started reading books from front to back, never did that before. Then I started getting good reports from school. A good day here and there but never at the same time from two teachers, one of them being a resource teacher, I was still a bit leery but at the same time, very excited. What finally convinced me is getting a note from his classroom teacher last week saying that my son had 2 full weeks of sitting and focusing and that he is doing wonderful. This teacher is very stern and expects a lot from her kids. That did it. Now I feel I can say on here what a God-send these products have been for my son. I could cry, thank you guys. I am still amazed and I am very thankful that I found something… Thanks guys, very much."—Kathy, CO, USA
"After it was suggested by my child's teacher last year that she be tested for learning difficulties, as we were told that my child had [attention issues]. I still have a problem with this… as I feel all children are distracted at this age. Maybe I'm in denial. I have never felt that medications prescribed…was the way to go. Too many side effects in my mind. I checked out the internet… and your ad popped up. I was very pleased with what I had read and decided to try it out. The Sunday before school started I began the process. I originally started with BrightSpark only and in about a weeks time noticed that my child's attitude towards school had changed. I have never been notified by the school since she began school in Sept about her grades. One of the teachers who assists in her classroom did stop me one day and said she is doing very well. Report cards come out next week and I am anxious to see the marks!!! I have not let the school know of the [testing] yet as I wanted to see how things went using the BrightSpark. I felt that she needed the time to settle in and mature a little more before jumping the gun. I was not completely convinced with the testing results (as they are a snapshot in time). I will let you know how the report goes. I introduced the Focus Formula at the end of October to see how the two work together. I haven't noticed a considerable difference but I am very please with how she is doing. My husband even noticed and was thrilled that…medication was not needed. Thanks so much"—Kim, Ontario, Canada
"I just wanted to thank you for the Brightspark I used in the past. My son seems to be more focused then ever off all products now I have promoted your products to a few friends who are happy using them now. I thank you kindly for all your help. Have a wonderfully blessed Christmas."—NICOLE K.

(Video UPDATE) Rage Against the RNC Machine
by Dracomicron, Wed Sep 03, 2008 at 05:54:34 AM EDT
I rode over to St. Paul after work yesterday to see what was going on... I figured that, if the RNC insisited on having their stupid convention in my metro area, I might as well go see what they were all about.
I arrived at the capitol building to find a full-on hippy festival, complete with hula hoops, pot, and music. I texted a friend, and she responded, "Yeah, 93X [a radio station] texted me that Rage [Against the Machine] would be there."
A free Rage show? It was too good to be true...

Has your bank raised fees on checking accounts and ATM transactions?
If so, you're not alone.
A survey by the trade industry group Bankrate.com found that "almost every checking fee we follow went up, with some bank fees rising 25 percent or more."
Free checking accounts are fast disappearing too. Bankrate found that just 39 percent of non-interest checking accounts are free of charge to all customers — down from 45 percent last year and a peak of 76 percent in 2009.
The same group said poll results suggest that 72 percent of Americans would consider switching banks if their financial institution raised its fees. That figure was 64 percent in March 2011.
A fee revolt swept the nation at the end of 2011 when a grassroots campaign — Move Our Money — persuaded many Americans to move their money from big banks to community banks or credit unions.
One way to explore whether or not it's time to change banks is to use online comparison tools, such as FindABetterBank.com or through BankRate.com's comparison charts.
Fees at Major Banks in Menlo Park:Bank Min. Balance to Open Min. Balance to Avoid Fees Monthly Fees Insufficient Funds Fee Fee at Other ATMs Chase Bank $25 $1500 $10 $34 $2 Wells Fargo $100 $1500 $9 $25 $3 Bank of the West $100 $1000 $10 $26 $2 Bank of America $25 $1500 $12 $35 $2 Citi Bank $0 $1500 $10 $34 $2
Have you recognized a rise in ATM and checking fees? Are you doing anything about it, like switching banks? Share your experience in the comments, and any tips for avoiding extra charges.

A really nice place to stay in Sta-Teresa!
At first, we tought we would not use the pool: guess what, we used it every day. Alternating from the ocean to the private pool was awesome!
The appartement is spacious and full of light. The A/C is great at night.
However, the bathroom could be cleaner. Also, the kitchen is spacious but lack some real equipment in order to cook (only 1 pan, 1 pot and no cutting knives...). The laying chairs we both broken. Finally, we would have appreciate if the owner had stop by the house to check if every thing was all right (he was not in town when we checked in, he arrived we days later)
Over all, it is a great place which could be easily improved to become fantastic!

A. While it's certainly possible that this family had American Indian origins, more than likely the symbol showing the profile face with an Indian headdress indicates that your husband's ancestor belonged to the Improved Order of Red Men. The women's auxiliary is known as the Degree of Pocahontas. According to the organization's Web site, <www.redmen.org>:
"The fraternity was founded in 1765 and was originally known as the Sons of Liberty. These patriots concealed their identities and worked 'underground' to help establish freedom and liberty in the early Colonies. They patterned themselves after the great Iroquois Confederacy and its democratic governing body. [The Iroquois'] system, with elected representatives to govern tribal councils, had been in existence for several centuries. After the War of 1812 the name was changed to The Improved Order of Red Men. They kept the customs and terminology of Native Americans as a basic part of the fraternity. Some of the words and terms may sound strange, but they soon become a familiar part of the language for every member."

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- A new federal website is designed to take complaints from people unhappy with their credit cards.
The Federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau just launched a website that tracks complaints against the country's largest banks and their credit cards.
David Ely, a finance professor at San Diego State, said it's a place "where you can actually go in as a consumer into the database and see the complaints that have been filed by other credit card users."
The consumer complaint database breaks down the entries by bank, categories, zip code and more.
There are no personal names used and only one line if it's been resolved or not. This is by no means a complete report.
"It is some information, but users need to understand that it's not a full picture of the credit card industry," Ely said.
Ely said it could encourage big banks to resolve more consumer complaints.
"No issuer wants to be identified as the institution that has the most complaints filed against it," he added.
The database shows that the number one consumer complaint is billing disputes follow by interest rates, account cancelations and credit reports. While it's credit cards now, the database could expand to include complaints about mortgages and other financial products.
As one could imagine, the bigger the bank, the more complaints they have against them because they issue the most cards. At the top of the list are Capital One, Citibank, Chase and Bank of America.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Legislation that would require incoming students at public higher education institutions to show proof of immunization against meningitis has passed the Senate.
The measure sponsored by Democratic Sen. Lowe Finney of Jackson was unanimously approved 30-0 on Monday. The companion bill is scheduled for the House Education Committee on Tuesday.
The measure is named after Jacob Nunley, a Middle Tennessee State University freshman who died last year after contracting the disease. Sponsors say students who live in close quarters are more susceptible to the disease than others.
Says Finney: "This prevents needless deaths."
Meningococcal meningitis can be spread through such contact as sharing drink bottles. Ten percent of people who contract the disease die -- sometimes within 24 hours.

The Los Banos Police Department has completed its investigation into the July shooting death of a teen and forwarded the findings to the Merced County district attorney's office.
Also in the hands of the DA is the California Department of Justice report into the shooting of 17-year-old Bidal Taito. Police said that report was received Friday.
Harold Nutt, chief deputy district attorney, said his office has no specific time frame on when a decision will be made on whether to press charges, "but it will probably be soon."
Nutt said the reports are being reviewed by multiple officials in his office.
"We frequently have others look at it when it's an unusual case," Nutt said.
Taito died at a Modesto hospital hours after collapsing from a gunshot wound in an alleyway near the 100 block of West K Street on July 20. Police said they responded to an emergency call from a male resident reporting someone was attempting to kick in his door. Moments later, he told the dispatcher that he'd shot the person and needed help. He shot through his wood door, police said. Taito was struck in the back.
Law enforcement has not identified Taito's shooter, saying only that the person is a relative of a former employee of the Los Banos Police Department.
The state DOJ worked with police to re-create the scene of the shooting.
The Merced County district attorney's office will decide whether to pursue charges, however the Police Department makes the decision on whether there's cause for an arrest. The two agencies have been working together on the case and, according to Nutt, it is not unusual for his office to decide charges will be filed before an arrest is made.
Last week, the Rev. Mychael Williams, who is assisting the Taito family, said relatives and friends of the slain teen are anxiously awaiting a decision. Taito's loved ones have staged several protests in the seven weeks since the teen's death. Williams said it is a way to keep Taito's death in the public's consciousness.
Williams said anything less than an arrest will be unacceptable for the family. He said Taito's friends and family have spoken with the shooter's neighbors and concluded that the story given to police is inaccurate.
Williams said attorneys have been contacted on the family's behalf and are prepared to seek legal action if police decide not to make an arrest.
Police Chief Gary Brizzee could not be reached for comment.

2010 Tour de France Stage 1 Recap: Three Crashes In Final Three KM
Alessandro Petacchi (Lampre-Farnese) won Sunday's stage 1 of the 2010 Tour de France, dodging at least three crashes in the final three kilometers that took pre-race favorites Mark Cavendish (Oakley), Tyler Farrar and Oscar Freire out of the mix.
Oakley's Fabian Cancellara (Saxo Bank) retained the yellow jersey he took with his dominating win in Saturday's prologue in Rotterdam. The Swiss TT ace did hit the pavement, though.
"At the end I couldn't do anything. I had to brake hard, and ended up doing a bit of a somersault once I landed," said Cancellara, who admitted he was slowly starting to feel the pain of his tumble. "Now with the time passing I feel like my shoulder and my whole left side are hurting."
Oakley Stage Results:
2. Mark Renshaw, HTC-Columbia
3. Thor Hushovd, Cervelo
4. Robbie McEwen, Katusha Team

As water at Rathbun Lake recedes, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the Kansas City District continue to closely monitor all relevant lake data as it relates to dam safety and flooding.
Corps professionals are tracking many aspects of the situation as to be fully prepared for any adverse changes in the weather.
"Even as we see the water begin to recede, the Corps will continue to keep a close eye on the erratic and unpredictable weather," Kansas City District Chief of Emergency Operation Jud Kneuvean said.
To date the Corps has deployed personnel, heavy equipment, supplies, sandbag machines, a portadam and more than 270,000 sandbags to Rathbun Lake.
Rathbun Lake is currently releasing 3,000 cubic feet of water per second into the Chariton River and will continue at that rate unless conditions change.

Offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg knows what QB Michael Vick has meant to the Eagles this season, and he wants him back. "He doesn't care how it's done, what it looks like, who is involved; he just wants to win," Mornhinweg said. "The preparation on the field, off the field — all those things allowed him to become the leader of this football team. He earned a lot of this."
Vick completely changed the landscape of the Eagles' season, and it has created — to borrow an Andy Reid-ism — a "beautiful thing" of an issue this offseason. The team must decide first what it wants to do with Vick, who is slated to hit free agency this offseason. It also must make a decision on Kevin Kolb and determine whether it's wiser to trade Kolb for a bounty or keep him around as insurance for the injury-prone Vick.
One course of action is to place the franchise tag on Vick (assuming there is one in the new Collective Bargaining Agreement) and then work toward signing him to a long-term deal. Although sources had indicated previously that Vick might be irritated with that move, fearing he might have to play a season under the one-year tender with no long-term security, he says he has no issues with such a scenario.
"I believe everything will work itself out," Vick told PFW. "Because of the CBA, you can't call any of the shots; you can't make any of the decisions. But I hope the right decisions are made at the right time, and things work out here. That's what I want."
If it were up to Mornhinweg, he'd like both Vick and Kolb back.
"I would love to keep both of them," Mornhinweg said, almost echoing the words of Reid a few days earlier, "but it might be sort of a crazy offseason."
A source with the team reminded PFW that Kolb had earned the starting job to begin the season and that many believe he has earned the right to start in the NFL. But with Vick's sudden and unexpected evolution, the Eagles would be foolish not to stick with Vick. Several teams will call about Kolb and ask about his value, and the Eagles would be wise to let a bidding war begin to see how high it will get. If they trade him this offseason, the Eagles would need to add a veteran QB, as Mike Kafka is not ready to be the backup just yet.

Adventurer's Vault 2 introduces a new subset of wondrous items: lair items. Adventurers can add these magic items to their base of operations (or "lair"). They provide comforts when the party returns home after a difficult adventure and a home-field advantage against enemies who would dare assault them in their sanctum. Dragons, being lair-focused creatures, also make use of such items to improve the security of their hoards, to make their lairs more comfortable, and to enhance the pleasure of collecting specific sorts of treasure. Indeed, some dragons go a step further and transform potions of their hoards into lair enhancements.
In the time before time, even before the Dawn War, a fearsome primordial dubbed the Master of Tides, strode the planes. This entity was less patient even than its primordial kin; wherever it traveled, it ripped apart whatever structures it discovered, leaving raw entropy in its wake. Even the planes themselves offended its sense of chaos, and it tore rifts between them as it moved. When the war between the gods and primordials began, the Master of Tides was among the first the gods slew, for the gods especially feared its plane-spanning destruction.

When twin sisters Izzy and Coco Tihanyi decided to pursue a career that combined their passion for surfing and their love of the ocean, their calling came in the form of starting Surf Diva. Before long, they were on course to becoming a lauded school for coed surfers in California and Costa Rica. Augmenting the pair's teachings is their team of certified instructors, all graduates of their school's intensive training program and certified in CPR and first aid. Committed to their expertise in surfing, many of the instructors also hold down careers as firefighters, paramedics, and snowboarders, granting them the combined know-how to put out beach bonfires with a casual backflip.
The team's instruction ranges from coed group lessons and competitive coaching sessions to two- or five-day women's weekend surf clinics. When they're not teaching surfing, crew members commit themselves to alternative teaching programs in yoga and standup paddleboarding, helping surfers to conquer the water with their bodies as well as with their very buoyant hearts. The twins' Costa Rica program also helps women and families hone boarding skills abroad while becoming fully immersed in the Costa Rican culture.
"Music is my diet and dance feeds my soul," says "Salsa Susie" Ngyen, who quit a six-figure career at Xerox to start Ooh La La Dance Academy—in the midst of an economic crisis. Her risk paid off, because since then, the company's dance troop, the Cosabellas, earned the title of Best 2010 Performing Artist of the Year by Raw Artist and sparkled onstage for celebrity judges during a live-taping of America's Got Talent in 2011.
The Cosabellas not only entertain; they share their enthusiasm of dance with others by teaching kids and adult dance classes at Ooh La La Dance Academy. Boasting over 15 years of experience each, the instructors teach the dance they pioneered, a blend of Latin and burlesque, as well as fitness-inspired classes and classical dance forms such as ballet and The Beethoven Shuffle.
Founded by Bibi Kasrai, Harvard Cookin' Girl's team combines a love of cooking with a passion for healthy eating to instruct kids during summer cooking camps, which have reaped notice from NBC San Diego. Hoping to empower youth to improve their lives and that of their families' through nutrition, participants are motivated to explore the kitchen by making such ambrosial masterpieces as pesto pasta, zucchini pancakes, and smoothies. Each weeklong session varies by theme, such as under the sea and tropical week to expose mini-chefs to multiple interests. The culinary camp also includes yoga to focus on overall health, arts and crafts to further captivate imaginations, and freedom from parents to allow kids to mastermind plans for federally subsidized cotton-candy farms. The Harvard Cookin' Girl's bright-green-and-orange studio is furnished with an open kitchen area and plentiful counter space, so all participants can watch and learn as the culinary conjurers whip up tasty treats.
At the ¡Latin Food Fest! Grand Tasting Village, Latin culinary aficionados Richard Sandoval, Roberto Alcocer, and Javier Plascencia join with restaurants, distillers, artisan food makers, brewers, and winemakers for the annual Latin food grand tasting event in California. Guests rub elbows with the likes of TV host chef George Duran, or share a wave with Baja culinary icon and Misión 19 owner Javier Plascencia. Throughout the festival, dedicated pavilions focus on specific topics, ranging from the Wine Tasting Tent and Beer Cabana to the ¡Taste Baja! Pavilion and the Craft Spirits Expo & Awards, where distillers and mixologists hold tastings. In addition to the tastings, the festival holds competitions for Top Chef, Best Restaurant, and Best Dish to showcase local culinary excellence. Other senses are delighted by live music from Latin sensation QUATTRO and an art show, and a silent auction of culinary supplies and memorabilia will benefit non-profit partner Feeding America.
A colony of seals suns itself on the rock ledges of La Jolla Cove while seabirds preen themselves a few feet above. Below, bright-orange garibaldi fish and california spiny lobsters scuttle about the cove's reefs and kelp beds. This biologically rich landscape sets the stage for La Jolla Dive & Snorkel's scuba-diving lessons, which range from beginner discovery classes to dive-master-certification courses that adhere to the training standards of the Professional Association of Dive Instructors (PADI). They also lead four shore dives to various sites, such as one located near The Marine Room restaurant, where the shallow reefs and smell of lobster bisque attract gentle leopard sharks in the early summer. Along with scuba diving, instructors also teach students how to strut in fashionable snorkeling gear and how to stoically gaze into the horizon during standup-paddleboarding tours.
When Larisa Hall was born, the doctors were not sure she'd ever be able to walk. She was born with severely clubbed feet and spent the next nine months wearing casts on both legs. But within six months, Larisa was up on her feet; and by the time she was five, she had discovered dance and never wanted to stop. Dancing proved to be a useful physical therapy—helping her gain coordination and overcome ankle pain.
Spurred on by her own triumph, Larisa founded Tap Fever Studios with the belief that everyone—no matter their age or level of ability—should have the opportunity to dance. To that end, she holds workshops for the hearing and listening impaired, as well as those who are developmentally disabled. Larisa also recently created a new method of dance called hand tap, which allows people with limited mobility to use special gloves and a wooden board to tap out rhythms while seated.

OKLAHOMA CITY – Sometimes getting out to a big lead causes a team to relax.
On Thursday at ASA Hall of Fame Stadium, the Hilldale Lady Hornets jumped out to an 8-0 lead after two innings only to see No. 1 Cache come roaring back with four each in the third and fourth and three in the fifth, leading the Lady Bulldogs to a 11-10 win in the Class 4A state tournament quarterfinals.
Hilldale's season ends at 30-6.
"This is one of the toughest losses I've had in a long time," said Hilldale coach Darren Riddle. We were hitting the ball real well, getting good pitching and playing solid defense.
"Those middle three innings, Cache showed why they're the top team in the state."
The Lady Hornets looked as though they were going to rout the Lady Bulldogs when they sent 11 batters to the plate in the first inning and put six runs on the board. Casady Mills began the hit parade with a double and was followed by singles by Destiny Riddle, McKensie Plant, Toni McMillan and Hillary Calvert.
Katie Keifer followed with a double and when Kallie Casey and Mills collected two singles, the Lady Hornets were up 6-0.
After Destiny Riddle retired the side in order in the top of the second, the Lady Hornets added two runs in the second inning for their 8-0 lead. Plant began the production with a one-out double and came home on a single by McMillan and McMillan eventually scored on a single by Keifer.
But wherever Cache left its bats to begin the game, the Lady Bulldogs discovered them with four runs on five hits in the third and the comeback was on. Cache would tie the game with four more runs in the fourth in most part because of three hit batters, all of whom scored.
"All of a sudden, I couldn't find my spots," Destiny Riddle said. "Then they started playing in the spots on defense where we were hitting the balls which they weren't in the beginning."
Cache would grab the lead in the fifth with three runs on five hits to make the score 11-8. But the Lady Hornets wouldn't die as Keifer cut the margin to one with a two-run home run but Cache pitcher Tate Landmark retired Emily Dowdy and Mills to end the game.
"We didn't quit," said the elder Riddle. "We knew we were in for a dogfight. We just came out on the short end.
"But we have everyone except Katie coming back. This one will hurt for a while, but we'll be back."

More information on the location of a new Towson firehouse could be coming in the near future.
Ellen Kobler, a county spokeswoman, said data from a study analyzing prospective sites for the firehouse will be released "sooner rather than later." She did not confirm that the announcement would name a specific site for construction.
"We're very actively still looking into it," Kobler said.
The county had initially identified Towson Manor Park as the site for the new firehouse, but began the process of evaluating alternate sites amid community uproar.
Towson leaders said in early December that county officials told them that the review of the other sites could take up to three weeks.
County officials plan to sell the current Towson Fire Station, the North Point Government Center and a police substation in Randallstown. Funds garnered from the sales would go toward the construction of new facilities. Any remaining proceeds would benefit school improvement projects, including installing air conditioning at Dumbarton Middle School.

Red flags raised over Internet-based anxiety "expert"
One important step in searching for a provider or potential mental health treatment program online—be it for depression, anxiety or other disorders — is ensuring the program is based on solid evidence that it will help you. In addition, when selecting a mental health provider, always ask about that provider's training and credentials.
In this video clip, Chicago's WGN News helps expose an Internet scam in which an individual without a license in psychology has been using multiple fake names to sell "cures" for various anxiety disorders, including a program to help parents raise anxiety-free children. The scam also included unapproved testimonials from a variety of physicians and other mental-health professionals. Also included in this short clip is APA member and anxiety disorder expert Dave Carbonell, PhD, giving advice about getting help for anxiety disorders.

Report: 100 Million Could Die From Climate Change By 2030
People in third world countries are disproportionately affected.
A report commissioned by the governments of more than 20 countries found that more than 100 million people will die as a result of climate change by 2030 if the world stays on its current path.
According to the second edition of the Climate Vulnerability Monitor, climate change and fossil fuel use already causes nearly 4.5 million deaths each year, and could increase to about 6 million deaths per year by 2030. The report, released by DARA, an independent, Spanish-based non-profit, suggests that time is running out for the situation to be reversed.
[Photo gallery: Extreme Winter Weather Hits Europe]
"There is still a window of opportunity, fast closing, to scale back pollution and tame the rising heat. But the world economy is locked onto a different course: fossil fuel consumption is expected to continue its rapid growth in the coming decades," according to the report. Climate change also has economic effects: According to the report, the United States could lose more than 2 percent of its GDP as it fights crop-killing droughts and water shortages.
But third-world countries are likely to remain the worst hit, as they will be forced to use already limited resources to fight disease and drought. More than 90 percent of deaths caused by climate change are expected to be in third-world countries.
"Of all these losses, it is the world's poorest communities within lower and middle-income countries that are most exposed. Losses of income among these groups is already extreme," the report says. "The pressures that these combined stresses put on affected communities are immense."
[Earth's Polar Ice Melting Less Than Thought]
The report also says more of the world's population could become vulnerable to natural disasters and other effects of climate change: 250 million people could be forced to deal with sea-level rise, 30 million will experience more extreme weather and flooding, and 5 million people will suffer desertification, the process by which fertile land becomes desert.
"The cold calculus of a hot planet is that millions of people already suffer from the failure of the world economy to embark on a low-carbon transition," they said. "Tackling climate change is already sensible in economic terms today. [Assessing the problem] will also minimize widespread illness and mortality that inaction causes."

Adrian Peterson's road to Eric Dickerson's rushing record took a hit on Sunday as the Minnesota Vikings' running back failed to reach 100 yards for only the sixth time this season. Finishing with 86 yards, Peterson now needs 208 yards to to break the record he has been aiming for.
The Minnesota Vikings were willing to feed Peterson the football, but even with 25 carries he was unable to make a big impact against a stifling Houston Texans' defense. Minnesota walked away with a 23-6 victory, but it now looks very improbable that he will find a way to get the 208 yards he needs.
Next week the Vikings head to home to face the Green Bay Packers in Minneapolis. The Packers have the NFL's 14th ranked run defense, but in their first divisional game of the season Adrian Peterson had one of his best games of the season -- a 210 yard rushing performance that lead to his recent streak. Peterson would need a huge game in Week 17 to break Eric Dickerson's mark.
