New Hospital to Start Serving Native Americans
On January 17, a newly built Indian Health Service (IHS) hospital began taking patients from the 9,300 Native Americans residing in the counties of Dewey, Haakon, Meade, Potter, Sully, and Ziebach in South Dakota.
The Cheyenne River Health Center, located in the north-central part of the state, was constructed using $84.5 million in Recovery funds from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The 138,000-square-foot facility replaces the former Eagle Butte IHS Hospital, which had become too small to serve the needs of the community.
IHS describes the new hospital as "a modern, technologically advanced facility with enough space and staff to provide an expanded level of health care services specifically designed to meet the needs of the Cheyenne River population."
The Recovery Act provided a total $500 million through HHS/IHS for:
- Construction of priority health care facilities
- Maintenance and improvement of buildings
- Undertaking water and wastewater sanitation projects
- Purchase of critical medical equipment and health information technology
2 Responses
Wow, this looks an amazing build! It's not just solely for native Americans though is it.. ? It's great to see project like this coming to fruition.
Great to hear Native Americans need more health care period.

PORTLAND -- One-year-old Rowan uses sign language to ask his Mom for more raspberries off a backyard bush.
"No need for rinsing," says Mulysa Melco."I never use pesticides so I don't have to worry."
Melco is asking her entire Overlook neighborhood in North Portland to do the same.
"All of these little critters that live on our plants are normal and natural and the secret is helping them stay balanced," explained Melco.
She's asking her neighborhood of 2,500 homes to take Metro's Healthy Lawn and Garden Pledge.
Neighbors can pledge to reduce or stop using pesticides and they'll get a ladybug yard marker as a sign of their commitment.
"People are really enthusiastic and other neighborhoods are saying we want to do this too," said Melco. Last Fall an American Academy of Pediatrics report linked pesticide exposure with pediatric cancers, decreased cognitive function and behavioral problems.
The Academy recommended pediatricians ask parents about pesticide use and advise them to choose the lowest-harm approach when considering pest control.
In her garden, Mulysa grows 70 percent of the produce her family eats and she deals with the pests naturally.
"I grow a lot of edible flowers and plants that are beneficial to insects," she explained.
Flowers on her cilantro, for example, attract wasps which eat the eggs of aphids. Marigolds are another must and help ward off bugs that can eat the roots of plants. The soil, she said, is also key so she composts to add plenty of nutrients.
"When plants are healthy they attract fewer pests," she said.
In ten days, 200 Overlook area neighbors have taken the pesticide free pledge, but with 2500 homes in the neighborhood, Mulysa knows, like her garden, this mission will take time.
"Get out there and get dirty. Make some garden buddies to help you with plant and seed donations and you'll be surprised at what can happen in your backyard," she said.

The commute home Monday night could be a messy one.
The National Weather Service is forecasting that we'll get about an inch of snow in the afternoon, starting around 1 p.m., before turning over to sleet and rain in the evening.
The chance for snow is 70 percent, according to the weather service.
The good news is that temperatures are climbing back from the arctic blast that set in during the past week. Temperatures will break the freezing point on Monday, with a high of 34 predicted. The low expected is 32.
The wet weather will likely continue through the week, as the weather service is forecasting a chance of rain through Thursday.
What do you think: Do you prefer rain or snow?

The fabric fashion accessory from Baxbo.com has a hidden foil bag with a mouth valve that can hold 8oz of alcohol for on-the-go boozing. The price tag: $24.95.
The FlaskScarf was the brainchild of the same guy who invented the FlaskTie - a tie that allows you to secretly take alcoholic sips at work - and the PillowTie - an accessory that blows up and can be used as an office pillow.

I came across this on Facebook the other day and it made me think.
Even though I try not to, sometimes I bring the stress of the day at work home with me and take it out on my kids, by being short with them and not as patient as I should be. Having 3 small kids it's tough sometimes, but ever since I read this last week I have kept it in the back of my mind and hopefully has made me a better parent:
"You will never have this day with your children again.
Tommorrow they'll be a little older then they were today.
This day is a gift.
Just breathe, notice, study their faces and little feet.
Pay Attention.
Relish the charms of the present.
Enjoy today,
it will be over before you know it."

Gift Bag Organizer 7 7
Good organizer This product is a great organizer for wraping supplies. Everything in one place. The pockets help organize items so I can find things quickly. I recommend this highly. January 22, 2014
Have so many I have so many gift bags, this is a godsend. Wonderful. My kids always bring me their bags to store for them also, so this is perfect for my needs. January 3, 2014
Good Storage Bag This Gift Bag organizer is made well enough and is roomy enough to hold all of my gift bags. Although the cardboard pieces did slip into the sides, I did find that I could not zip the side sections close and the large front pocket does have a tendency to budge when holding the tissue paper. The front pocket should have been made to expand more and its' flap longer in order to hold more. Otherwise this organizer does hold all that it is supposed to hold. December 22, 2013

So, $100 bucks works out to roughly $3.33 a day. I love a challenge and am actually excited about this. As anyone who has read me for a while knows, I struggle with my weight, so I am looking at this as a very positive thing when it comes to food. Kill two birds with one stone. Cheap eats and using food as fuel. So many people have the mistaken notion that if you don't have money, you can't eat healthy foods. My intention with this blog is to share my journey during these trying times.
I will be focusing on a whole food, vegan diet. I want to get as much nutrition from each bite as I can and avoid the ramen noodle trap. (although that won't be hard... I have never been into ramen).. I will be coming up with creative cheap eats that are more than just rice and beans!
Now, to ease me into this transition, I am VERY grateful that I have a full pantry. The next two weeks, I can definitely spend less than my planned $3.33. I have a large supply of nutritional yeast, tvp, wheatberries, sun dried tomatoes, some nuts and a well stocked freezer. I am giving myself an allowance of $10/week for the next two weeks.

Murad Age Reform
Anti-Aging Products for Genetic Aging
Genetic Aging, or the natural process of aging that happens with time, results in a seemingly inevitable decrease in the production of skin-firming collagen and skin smoothing elastin. As the body begins to produce less of these two proteins, wrinkles may form and the skin loses it overall glow. Murad Age Reform anti-aging products combine Retinol-based treatments to boost collagen production with AHA and BHA treatments to increase cell turnover and accelerate the movement of younger, brighter, firmer skin to the surface. Murad Age Reform products, as part of an Inclusive Health™ lifestyle, can give you firmer, youthful skin even as collagen production decreases.

In 10 short years since first entering the task seating market, Humanscale has become one of the world's top three manufacturers of high-performance task chairs. Humanscale has become a market leader by offering a significantly better product..
Humanscale Freedom Chair
Winner of 10 design awards to date—including the Design Distinction Award in the prestigious ID Design Review 2000 competition—the Humanscale Freedom chair by Niels Diffrient has revolutionized the task chair industry. Its weight-sensitive recline and synchronously adjustable armrests set new standards for task chair performance and functionality to keep the sitter exceptionally comfortable while also lowering the risk of long-term injury. More about Humanscale Freedom Chair...
Humanscale Liberty Chair
Liberty, with Form-Sensing Mesh Technology, is unlike any mesh chair you've seen or experienced. With its tri-panel construction, it has the body-fitting contours that single-panel stretch mesh chairs simply can't achieve. And it offers perfect lumbar support for everyone, without external devices or manual adjustments. Liberty's mesh back is formed by combining three panels of non-stretch mesh in the same way a tailor combines multiple pieces of material to form a shirt. Its contours are custom-made to both fit and support the human body in unprecedented comfort. More about Humanscale Liberty Chair...
Humanscale World Chair
Diffrient World marks Humanscale's first foray into all-mesh task seating. Like its mesh-backed forerunner, Liberty, the Humanscale Diffrient World chair's tri-panel backrest hugs the body to provide tailor-made lumbar support, while its mesh seat eliminates contact stress under the thighs. But Diffrient World's major innovation is its mechanism-free recline action, which leverages two parts of the chair's frame and the laws of physics to provide automatic, balanced support throughout the full range of recline. No chair is more intuitive, creating the ultimate user-friendly sitting experience. More about Humanscale World Chair...

Germany on the UN Security Council: a look back
Foreign Minister Westerwelle at the Security Council
© This photograph may be reproduced free of charge without permission provided that the copyright is acknowledged: Photothek / Th. Imo
Germany's term as a non‑permanent member of the UN Security Council came to an end at the close of 2012. Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle presented a review of the two years to the cabinet on 19 December. The 40‑page report "Germany in the UN Security Council in 2011-12", summarizes the issues the Security Council has dealt with over the past two years. The Council's work was dominated in particular by the radical changes in the Arab world. But the "traditional" focus, the continent of Africa, was also a prime concern.
The report gives an impression of the "remarkable range of issues and problems" handled by the Security Council, Foreign Minister Westerwelle writes in the foreword. The popular image that the Security Council only takes decisions on military interventions and sanctions does not reflect its real role, the Minister goes on: "The focus of its work is on finding political solutions, on reaching consensus on the political processes without which armed conflicts can rarely be permanently solved and without which lasting peace and stability cannot be achieved."
Focuses of Germany's work
The report also points to the issues highlighted by Germany during its membership of the Security Council, for instance as chair of the Working Group on Children and Armed Conflict and of the Al‑Qaida and Taliban Sanctions Committee, and as a lead on the Afghanistan dossier. With the adoption, in July 2011 and September 2012 respectively, of presidential statements on climate change and security and on the new commendable role assumed by the Arab League, Germany successfully anchored key issues on the Council's agenda, Foreign Minister Westerwelle goes on.
Germany was one of ten non‑permanent members of the Security Council for the years 2011 - 2012. During this time it twice held the rotating Presidency- in July 2011 and in September 2012. the Security Council is the only body in the United Nations that can take decisions binding under international law. It bears primary responsibility for maintaining international peace and security.
Diverse engagement in the United Nations
Although Germany would lose influence in the United Nations with the end of its Security Council membership, Westerwelle said, "Our efforts have been recognized by other countries." And Germany's engagement in the United Nations will remain diverse and intensive in future – as a newly elected member of the UN Human Rights Council from 2013, as one of the biggest contributors in financial terms, or as a troop-contributing country for the UN missions in Lebanon, South Sudan and Darfur.
"German foreign policy will continue to view the United Nations as an indispensable force in the pursuit of a value and rule‑based approach to globalization," says Foreign Minister Westerwelle.

Newmont Mining Corporation Stock Hold Recommendation Reiterated (NEM)
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass
- Despite the weak revenue results, NEM has outperformed against the industry average of 20.3%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 9.6%. Weakness in the company's revenue seems to have hurt the bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.
- The gross profit margin for NEWMONT MINING CORP is rather high; currently it is at 52.80%. Regardless of NEM's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 14.79% trails the industry average.
- Despite currently having a low debt-to-equity ratio of 0.46, it is higher than that of the industry average, inferring that management of debt levels may need to be evaluated further. Regardless of the somewhat mixed results with the debt-to-equity ratio, the company's quick ratio of 0.94 is weak.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Metals & Mining industry and the overall market on the basis of return on equity, NEWMONT MINING CORP underperformed against that of the industry average and is significantly less than that of the S&P 500.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly decreased to $574.00 million or 54.48% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, when comparing to the industry average, the firm's growth rate is much lower.

Battery powered air pump for transporting fish or emergency air supply.
Great little air pump for less than $5 dollars. Even at this cheap price it has an on/off switch and comes with air line and air stone.------------------------------.
You're getting old when you get the same sensation from a rocking chair that you once got from a roller coaster.
I would recommend this to anyone who has an emergency and needs this for a few hours. I personally use mine when I drip acclimate my fish. Very handy.------------------------------130g: 6 Angelfish, 2 Roseline Sharks, 5 Kuhli Loaches, 1 Otocinslus, 1 Corydora
I've noticed that people HATE it when you point out how stupid they are, so now I try to do it politely.

How did you come up with your username? APAL - A is for Ashley and PAL is the first 3 letters of my last name - my husband is CPAL i thought it was cool so i made it for myself lol
How long have you been TTC? - 2 months
How did you find out about APA? - googled some questions for myself
Anything else you'd like to add? I would like to add that i am a former Ulcerative Colitis victim. Which in this case i had my ENTIRE large intestine removed, so therefore i could or could not have an easy time TTC. Reasons for having a hard time can be because of the scar tissue build up after my surgery in 2005. We have been trying for 2 months and its early yet, but exhausting trying! Lol

Tommy: What to do about ISIS?
by Tommy Tucker
posted Sep 3 2014 10:30AM
The terrorist group ISIS beheaded a SECOND American journalist that had been captured, saying they were doing it because of US air strikes. How should we respond to this? Targeted airstrikes? Diplomacy? Boots on the ground? Bomb 'em all?
We spoke with Michael Rubin, a Resident Scholar at the American Enterprise Institute whose major areas of research include the Middle East, Turkey, Iran and diplomacy, about ISIS and what the United State can, and should, do.
Rubin said one of the best options is bombing them. "You're not carpeting bombing, you're not bombing randomly. You're basically forcing the Islamic State to go to ground to allow other forces in the region to have the upper-hand… there are models where we can use our air power and allow people on the ground to take action against the Islamic State."
Will we eventually face an attack on our own soil? Rubin had a dire answer: "I think we will. Here's the basic problem. Too often people in the State Department and the White House, people want to see terrorism in terms of grievance. If you address the grievance, the problem goes away. I tend to… see terrorism through the lens of ideology. It's not motivated by grievance. No matter how many concessions you give some of these guys, they're still going to want to kill you."
Something needs to be done. And, while the executions are tragic and terrible, I think we need to be angrier about US troops (including a general) who are still being killed by "green-on-blue" attacks (when Afghan soldiers or policemen fire at US troops).

Tommy: Do we want LSU to have cupcakes or challenges?
by Tommy Tucker
posted Jul 29 2014 2:16PM
LSU has lots of unsold home game tickets. Is it all about the experience at Tiger Stadium as the sun finds its home in the western sky on a Saturday night, or is it more important who the opposition is? Would you rather play traditionally good teams like USC or Notre Dame or Texas, or take on a smaller team and get a guaranteed win?
We decided to talk to LSU football radio analyst Doug Moreau and get his take on the issue.
"Whoever the opponent is, my job is to try and describe a picture so they can visualize what's going on on the field. It doesn't make a difference to me who the opponent is, frankly. There's excitement, of course, when you play the Alabamas, the Ole Misses, and you play the SEC-caliber teams…but when you play the Sam Houston States, the demand isn't going to be as great."
Listeners weighed in as well, with some saying LSU should schedule the big-name opponents while others said the SEC slate is tough enough on its own.
A win is a win, and it'll feel better on Sunday morning than a loss to a powerhouse. But can LSU's diet consist of cupcakes alone?

Tommy: Tight end or not tight end? That is the question
by Tommy Tucker
posted Jun 18 2014 12:38PM
An arbitrator is deciding whether Jimmy Graham should get the franchise tag for a tight end or for a wide receiver. The difference? About $5 million (and the spelling).
Graham wants wide receiver bucks; the Saints say he's a tight end. Which is it?
We spoke with WWL's NFL analyst Mike Detillier, who believe Graham should get paid wide receiver money.
"In his first 4 seasons in the NFL, he's caught more passes than any other tight end in the history of the National Football League. This is a guy that played a grand total of one year of college football, and last year played with a foot injury that he didn't miss a lot of time out on the field."
Mike went on to point out that Graham has more receptions than Hall of Fame wide receiver Jerry Rice did in his four years.
That does make a pretty compelling argument.
But what if there were a compromise? Barry Wilner, an NFL writer for the Associated Press, offered up a possibility.
"What the league and the teams might need to find a way to do is restructure these definitions on positions so that you do have a tight end/wide receiver like a Jimmy Graham." Part of the problem is that the tight end might be the most hybrid position in the NFL…Jimmy Graham is as good as almost every wide receiver in the league, even though I do believe he is a tight end."
Could the debate force a change for the whole NFL? Well, we'll see.

Tommy: Where's the best place to live?
by Tommy Tucker
posted Jun 13 2014 11:43AM
Data indicates the West Bank of Jefferson Parish peaked in 2000 and is struggling with an aging population, low paying jobs and defections to Orleans Parish.
We spoke with Jefferson Parish Councilman Chris Roberts about a study the Council commissioned that shows West Jefferson has been struggling, but it's not all doom and gloom.
"When you have facilities like the TPC, and you have the NOLA Motorsports track, those are attractions that are going to be regional attractions that bring people from all over. So if you never had a reason before to cross the bridge, to come over and see West Jefferson, those are draw cards that cause people to come out. And it helps change the general perception."

Tommy: Can volunteer Minutemen reduce crime in the Quarter?
by Tommy Tucker
posted Jun 2 2014 1:52PM
The Minutemen are coming to the Quarter. Just like the Guardian Angels only these folks will be armed to help keep tourists and locals safe. Aaron Jordan, the founder of the French Quarter Minutemen, joined us in studio to talk about the group.
"It's a group of concerned citizens that live in the metro area of New Orleans. Some of them have a concealed carry license, and some will choose to exercise an open carry policy."
But one area in particular Jordan wanted to focus on was service workers. He says many of them worry about going to and from work late at work.
"You can call our group! We're going to have people in the French Quarter. We will come out there and walk you to your car, walk you to your bus stop… that's what I really want to focus on. The service workers in the French Quarter who are scared to death out there. We want to say, "'Okay, we're going to be there for you.'"
Will volunteer citizens carrying guns make for a safe or more dangerous French Quarter? Would it be better if they were in uniforms and not plain clothes? Is this a good or bad idea?
Listen to the full interview and tell me what you think!

Tommy: Improving our odds in fight against juvenile crime
by Tommy Tucker
posted May 27 2014 10:18AM
Everybody knows there's a crime problem in New Orleans, and of course, that means juvenile crime too.
Records indicate that Marshall Coulter, the teen shot in the head by Marigny homeowner Merritt Landry, has a criminal record that began when he was only ten years old. What could have been done differently then that would have kept him on a better path?
READ MORE: Teen suspect in new burglary after he was shot in the head
If more resources are to be devoted to juvenile crime (as many think they should), should those efforts focus on rehabilitating these kids, or simply punishing them? Should we offer kinder, gentler rehabilitation or harsher, tougher punishments?
We spoke with Robert Jenkins, a criminal defense attorney and former State Public Defender; and he had some interesting things to say.
"I've done this long enough to know that a lot of times, this so-called 'fear of rehabilitation;' what we're allegedly doing in jail just doesn't work. It's not working… I believe we just have to get tougher."
Another of his big points was about parenting.
"We can have a second line and have more parents come out than we have to a school board meeting, or something for their child. The problem is that what we've been doing isn't working. And we have laws on the books that can help, but we don't use them."
Take a listen to the podcast and tell me... what do you think?

Tommy: Online gambling less popular than legal marijuana
by Tommy Tucker
posted May 12 2014 10:06AM
Pot or online gambling? While 75% of Americans think marijuana will be legalized one day; on-line gambling is not as sure a bet. Only 27% would make it legal. If you had to pick weed or speed, where gambling is one click away — what's your choice?
The new poll on marijuana vs. gambling online was conducted by Fairleigh Dickinson University in New Jersey. We spoke to Krista Jenkins, the Director of Fairleigh Dickinson's Survey Research Institute and a Professor of Political Science, about the results.
"We found that more people are in favor of allowing legalization of marijuana than legalization of online gambling…What was interesting was that online gambling attitudes have not changed much at all over the years that we've been asking this question."
FULL AUDIO: Tommy talks to Krista Jenkins about marijuana & gambling policies
What do you think? Personally, I would never use it; but I think marijuana should be decriminalized. Prohibition didn't work for alcohol; I don't think it's working for marijuana.
But that's me. What do YOU think?

Tommy: What's next for Merritt Landry and Marshall Coulter?
by Tommy Tucker
posted May 6 2014 1:45PM
A teenager shot in the head by a homeowner who feared for his life recovers, leaves the hospital, and then gets arrested for burglary. When confronted, he surrendered peacefully. Does this make you more or less likely to believe last summer's Marigny shooting was justified?
This was Marshall Coulter's third known incident. We spoke with Loyola Law Professor Dane Ciolino to try and sort this situation out.
READ MORE: Teen suspect in new burglary after he was shot in the head
Do Coulter's prior acts matter when it comes to a grand jury or trial if that should happen?
"As a technical matter, they don't; and they shouldn't. But in reality they do."
We also addressed the possibility of Merritt Landry facing another grand jury in the future and what his fate may be.
"Things look good for Mr. Landry so far. But you're right; he'll never get peace, at least until the statute of limitations runs out."
I feel for Merritt Landry. Do you?

Tommy: How should we be fueling up our bodies in the morning?
by Tommy Tucker
posted Apr 29 2014 11:18AM
How do you get "fueled up" to face the day? Big breakfast? Fancy coffee? At home or on the road? Does it depend on how the night before ended?
Me, I generally have some oatmeal in the morning during the week. But we wanted to talk to an expert about this. What's the best way to eat healthy and start your day on the right foot? We spoke to Dawn Jackson Blatner, a registered dietitian, nutrition expert, and author of
"The Flexitarian Diet"
, about how we should do that.
The verdict on my oatmeal (even though I spice it up by combining to different flavors)? "You've had too much monotony in your life with that combination."
Well… not off to a good start for me! I asked Dawn to elaborate a little more.
"If you start with oatmeal, that's one piece of the puzzle. The other pieces would be something with high water like berries or an apple. And something with fat and protein like a handful of almonds."
A balanced breakfast? Makes sense to me. What do YOU eat for breakfast? Listen to the podcast for the full interview.
