A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

I am interested in the following scenario specifically. Suppose you have team that writes production code and a team that writes automatic tests. The team that writes automatic tests has a dedicated framework intended to write the automatic tests. Should the testing team write unit tests for their framework although the framework is not used in production?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
I've been in that situation and what I did is use the test suite for the production code also as a test suite for the testing framework. Presumably, all the features of the framework were actually used, so if tests failed without a change in production code, then there must be a problem in the testing framework.
It worked OK-ish - running those tests took much longer than having a dedicated test-testsuite would have, and sometimes I wouldn't run all of them and have a problem turn up on the production build server. Diagnosing such problems took much longer than it would have with a test-testsuite.
All in all, I never felt comfortable with it and would really recommend having dedicated tests for the test framework as well. From the point of view of the test-writing team, the testing framework is production code. And if the testing framework ever gets used by anyone else, whose test suites you don't have access to...
Hell yes!
TDD gives you an edge in developing, it's not just to please the customer. It allows you to write testable, reusable and modular code. I would unit test everything that has to work, expecially if you expect to change it often (refactor to add new features).
The testing team should do whatever that can increase their trust in the results delivered by their framework.
This includes testing, code reviews, quality standards, ...
Yes, if only to test that the framework generates sufficient test coverage.
This question reminds me of a story: Once upon a time there was a company. This company believes in automatic tests. This belief is so strong it leads to creating a group whose sole purpose is writing these automatic tests. All the most ardent believers are allowed to join this group. There was much rejoicing!
Then one day, it's discovered that this automatic testing group, despite its mission, doesn't use automatic tests for its own work. Stones are cast, yada yada.
I'm just saying... I would think that any testing framework would have pretty solid test coverage.

Cooperative Events
Recruitment Events
Stanford has very strict policy about recruitment event:
- You must register with Stanford CDC (http://cdc.stanford.edu/employers/) to be eligible for on-campus recruiting (even if you are recruiting for China). More info could be found at http://www.stanford.edu/group/MeetingServices/policy/recruiter.htm
- If you need a room on campus, most of them are NOT free. ACSSS could help to book the room under our name but you must pay for the room fee.
- If you need any speaker/audio or video/projector device, you have to directly contact ELS (http://bgm.stanford.edu/groups/els/equipment_services) for price and directly pay to them.
- The school officers always takes a long time to process all the paperwork and your order. You'd better schedule and contact them at least one month before the event take place.
- ACSSS does NOT charge labor fee for your event. But if you need labor help or reservation help from us, we will ask for sponsorship fee.
- ACSSS can do little to get across the school procedure. But if you do think you need our help, please contact email@example.com and we normally will only reply to email ending with "@edu.cn" or "@gov.cn" for recruitment events.

First you need to add the following code in your wp-config.php file.
define('FTP_USER', 'username');
define('FTP_PASS', 'mypassword');
define('FTP_HOST', '192.168.2.132');
define('FTP_SSL', false);
But this is old idea. If you dont want to add the ftp access in wp-config.php file then Just add the following line wp-config.php file.
define('FS_METHOD', 'direct');
Note: You need to give 755 permission to wp-content folder. Create the upgrade folder in wp-content folder.
If still you are facing issue then give 777 permission to all wp-content folder.
For permission use following command
cd your_wordpress_directory
sudo chown -R www-data wp-content
sudo chmod -R 755 wp-content
More information:
WordPress will try to write a temporary file to your /wp-content directory. If this succeeds, it compares the ownership of the file with it's own uid, and if there is a match it will allow you to use the 'direct' method of installing plugins, themes, or updates.

From Our Editors
"I don't fall asleep⎯though many people do⎯but I am relaxed. I lie there, my thoughts drifting from the to-do list of life and, then, naturally, to space," says Mike Gruss of the Virginian-Pilot, who stepped into one of Float First's pods for the first time in January 2012. "I am the John Glenn of the suburban relaxation frontier." The sense of antigravity Gruss describes in his piece is a common one. It occurs in part because the water inside each 8'x5' i-sopod is heated to skin temperature, which makes it hard to tell where the water ends and one's body begins. Of course, the ability to float effortlessly also aids in creating this sensation. More than 1,000 pounds of Epsom salt combines with 10 inches of water inside each pod, a ratio that helps any man, woman, or unplugged mini fridge to float. Each float session⎯which can be conducted with the capsule's lid closed or open, in case patrons are concerned about experiencing claustrophobia⎯is meant to imbue a deep sense of relaxation in clients, as the tank deprives all senses of stimulation. Aside from making guests feel lighter than air, the soothing session also boasts benefits such as improved sleep quality and faster recovery from muscle injuries.

Congrads, you kicked ***.
Sometimes luck is just against you. Not this season. I can feel it.
Defense wins championships.
You guys are in for it Sunday.
Lol, brain fart there.
Good luck with that one. There is just no stopping the 2013 Niners. If you make the playoffs, I will definitly be around. :)
Nice analysis. Niners still win.
Lol. I won't bother you anymore after Monday. Unless you make the playoffs and we get to beat you twice in one season, that is.
27-13 Niners. Sorry, but there is no way you are coming into the Stick and beating the 2013 Niners. Aint gonna happen.
Oh, ok. Wait and see.
Lol. Our D has given up a total of 3 points in the last two weeks. You won't score more than 13 points Sunday. Count on it.
Fortunately, we only have to wait until Sunday to settle this. Will be back Monday morning to accept your congradulations on our win.
Well, ok. And you might want to consider that the last time we were beaten at home (and then by only 3 points) in a regular season game was September, 2011. Just saying. But who knows, the streak...
I wasn't happy with him after the NFCCG. Now, however, all is forgiven.
On offense, the Niners and Giants are almost dead even (you are about a half a point ahead of us).
On defense, we are number 1 in the NFL in points allowed. You are number 14.
We are at home,...
Can't say I disagree. Even the Coach of the Year isn't perfect.
That's the way I see it. The Giants were our big hurdle to Lombardi No. 6.
It doesn't take away your win. But it wasn't a blowout either, as I think someone said in a prior post.
Oh, I agree there's going to be payback. No question about that. :)
Lol. I'm not "crying and complaining" about. Just trying to live in the real world. You barely won that game. It was not a blow out.
Knocked us out of the playoffs? Did you see the game? Two special teams **** ups, either one of which not happening would have resulted in a Niners 6th Lombardi. You know it, I know it.
You won...
If they lose at all? Come on now, you lost 7 games last season if I recall correctly.
But seriously, I don't think it will be a blowout. Still a Niners victory though.
Blew out the Jets. Blew out the Bills.
Hat trick coming up on Sunday!!!
Take it easy, Parcells. Just because he's objective doesn't make him a troll.
By the way, your fans on our boards are predicting a Niners win.
Here's one:

BlackBerry Loses Its Base: Hill Staffers
Has Obama's favorite gadget reached its twilight year?
The IT nerds are losing control of Washington, D.C.
Capitol Hill staffers seem to finally be trading in their BlackBerrys for Androids and iPhones. A National Journal survey released today shows that 77 percent of Hill staffers use BlackBerrys today, compared to 93 percent in 2009. 57 percent of federal executives have BlackBerrys now compared to 76 percent two years ago. And it's only going to get worse: Less than 1 percent of the D.C elite interviewed plan to buy another BlackBerry.
BlackBerrys have long been the Capitol's smartphone of choice, allowing eager young politicos to type in the text of 2,300-page bills at breakneck speed on their QWERTY keyboards.
This was all predicted at last year's SXSW festival by Politico's Mike Allen — winning the year! — who wrote in Playbook on March 11, 2011:
Hanging last night with the hip kids at the Magnolia Café on South Congress Street (we ordered the "hummadilla," 'followed by crawfish etouffe), nothing was more embarrassing than a BlackBerry – worse than taking a lunchbox to school when all the other kids have switched to bags. Here, you gotta have a Droid, or maybe an iPhone. Prediction: As video gets more integral to news, campaigns and political mobilization, Washington will experience a tipping point away from the 'Berry.
Playbook has been the most important part of a well-balanced breakfast for the D.C elite since 2007, when it was designed to be read paragraph-by-paragraph by hitting the BlackBerry space bar. BlackBerry's attempt at a tablet is called, um, PlayBook.
And of course, the leader of the free world has had a long relationship with his own phone. "I'm clinging to my BlackBerry," he said weeks before his inauguration in 2009, "they're going to pry it out of my hands." Not content with re-popularizing his dad jeans, Obama has made the BlackBerry holster a key element of the commander-in-chief's uniform.
The survey also found that D.C staffers are still serious Facebook users, with 84 percent of Hill staffers saying they use the site. Two D.C residents who aren't on Facebook: Sasha and Malia Obama, who have been banned from using the site by their mom and dad. Federal executives have not been sold on the utility of Twitter, who chose the description "pointless babble" to characterize the Twittersphere.

Religion, as it is ordinarily practiced, reconciles us-not to one another, in any interesting or profound way, but rather to the world as we would like to encounter it. If we are more or less liberal, it takes us easily into the world of liberal thought and its satisfactions, and if we are conservative, ditto. As someone once said of country music, when you're drunk in a bar and hear it on the jukebox, it makes you think you're right.
And this is precisely what is wrong about much, if not most, religion. Some of its atheist critics have a fair point: To the extent that it shores up a sense of certainty and reinforces the ego, religion is a damaging influence.
If the danger of conservative or reactionary religion is unquestioning certainty and dogmatic literalism, the danger of liberalism is its willingness to equate religion with personal taste and a tolerant worldview. What is lost in both views is the understanding that we must be transformed if we are to be what we are meant to be, that, as we are, we have been deformed, that our ordinary waking consciousness is at best a form of sleepwalking. It takes an effort, an ascetic struggle, to begin to be clear about anything. We must struggle for the beginning of clarity, and if we get to that beginning, we will not be satisfied with ourselves.
We will know that in every way we must be remade because of what we have been called to be, which has...

Energy Website 'FracFocus' Praised by U.S. Agency Chief
The website used by the energy industry to track the chemicals employed in hydraulic fracturing won praise from the Obama administration official responsible for writing rules for oil and gas production on federal lands.
The Bureau of Land Management is developing regulations that would ensure fracking, by injecting millions of gallons of water, chemicals and sand into underground rock to free oil and gas, doesn't pollute drinking-water supplies.
The Interior Department unit, led by Bob Abbey, plans to require companies such as Chesapeake Energy Corp. to list substances they use in producing oil or natural gas on federal lands. The American Petroleum Institute, which represents companies, has said producers disclose the chemicals on a website called FracFocus, and rules are unnecessary.
"FracFocus has worked well for disclosure of chemicals," Abbey said today at a House Appropriations Committee hearing in Washington. "Fracking technology is a tremendous, tremendous tool for this nation and to the industry to allow us to continue to make progress to reduce our dependence on foreign fuels."
Abbey said the U.S. agency plans to adopt some industry disclosure practices, without elaborating.
The Washington-based Environmental Working Group, backing a detailed disclosure on a website and in mail to people living near fracking sites, said some chemicals disclosed by the companies are known to cause cancer or harm the human reproduction system.
Fracking is used for about 90 percent of drilling on public lands, Abbey said.

Additional monetary accommodation could be warranted fairly soon, many members of the Federal Open Market Committee said in their Aug. 1 meeting, according to the FOMC meeting minutes released by the Federal Reserve on Wednesday. The question is, is that still true? Not everyone thinks so. The Fed minutes from the beginning of August show

Pricey Pact
Mundra Port and Special Economic Zone's investors reacted with concern to their company's winning bid for a long-term lease of a coal terminal in Australia. Its share has fallen by 10.4% to 129 rupees in the last three trading days compared with the 4% decline in the Bombay Stock Exchange's benchmark Sensex.
On Tuesday, the company had announced that it was the successful bidder for a 99-year lease of Abbot Point X50 Coal Terminal in Australia.
Mundra Port, a subsidiary of Adani Enterprises, would pay about Australian $2 billion for operating this terminal. That is 20% higher than the Queensland government's initial expectation.
The deal valuation may be one concern for investors. Bloomberg estimates suggest Mundra's enterprise value/earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ratiofor fiscal 2012 is 15.4 times on a consolidated basis.
B. Ravi, chief financial officer of Mundra Port, expects based on current estimates that Abbott Point would generate revenue of about A$160 million and an Ebitda of A$100 million in fiscal 2012, which ends June.
On that basis, the ratio works out to about 18 times. That appears a bit higher than Mundra's current valuation.
Another concern is funding the transaction. The exact details of financing would be clear next month, Mr. Ravi said.
But, assuming the entire acquisition is funded by debt at a cost of about 7% (Libor plus 1.9% percentage point), the total interest outgo works out to about A$126 million. That is higher than the estimated EBITDA for fiscal 2012.
"Post-deal, the debt-to-equity ratio would increase to about 1.7:1 from 0.7:1 currently," Mr. Ravi said. Part-funding the acquisition through equity, either in Mundra Port or the terminal operation, could ease concerns on this front.
How will Mundra benefit from this deal? Its capacity will increase significantly. It will add 50 million tons of capacity to the current 130 million tons capacity of Mundra Port. Abbott Point terminal's current capacity of 21 million ton will increase to 50 million ton next month after an ongoing expansion program is completed. Eventually, it could go up to 80 million tons.
Getting users for its capacity should not be a problem, given the appetite for Australia's coal. Users for the 50 million ton capacity have been contracted under take-or-pay agreements, which assure revenue for Mundra Port. In fiscal 2011, the terminal is expected to have revenue of A$110 million and an EBITDA of A$59 million.
In a statement, Mundra has said that Abbott Point's EBITDA margin is expected to improve to 70% in fiscal 2016 from 54% in fiscal 2011. Abbott Point's current margin, however, is lower than that of Mundra Port (68% for the nine months ended December).
But the acquisition will add to revenue growth.
"Entire capacity has take-or-pay agreements and can add 21% and 18% to Mundra's revenues and EBITDA, respectively, in fiscal 2012," wrote analysts from Religare Capital Markets Ltd in a note.
The deal gives Mundra a boost on the capacity front. But an optimal financing structure is essential to minimize the impact on its balance sheet. Until more clarity emerges on the financing structure and the acquisition's impact on Mundra's margin, the deal overhang on the stock is likely to remain.

Is that right? I'm assuming for Christmas I will have a slightly higher utilization than 1% anyway...but I will let the balances carry over if you're suggesting it will help my chances of getting approved for care credit in late Feb/early March.
I really appreciate everyone breaking this down for me. Man is it confusing lol!
care credit is one of the easiest credit cards to get so don't worry too much, your doine fine. Since it's a card that shouldn't be always used or abused it's easier on the risk department. It's not like you'll go out and blow $10,000 on unneeded surgery well maybe if it's cosmetic but those are rare compared to the number of people who blow out their money at walmart etc.
But I have to disagree with Jaime it doesn't matter if you carry large balances as long as you pay the minimum, your credit score will rebound just fine after it's paid off or brought down very low. Doesn't matter if you take a steady road on cruise control, or a roller coaster ride, only diference is the roller coaster will probably help you lose some change out of your pockets in the loops in interest =)

Good review for Wonder Woman
They're limited edition.
Glad to see analog watch faces for kids. Bravo!
Twice the price at
I haven't seen the watches, but my daughter has a number of the little figurines from this company. They are solid plastic, not cheap feeling and well "painted". She is 5, and LOVES playing with them, they are good quality. (Note, ours are the figures, not key chains and mentioned in the amazon review. I have seen both versions, they keychains are identical to the figures, but with a loop attached at the head with a keychain (duh).

Wings' McCollum takes long road to first NHL victory

LOS ANGELES, July 2 (Yonhap) -- South Korea's top automaker Hyundai Motor Co. said Tuesday that sales of its cars edged up 2 percent in the United States in June from a year earlier.
Hyundai Motor sold 65,007 vehicles in the United States in June, including 22,163 units of the Elantra, a compact model, according to the carmaker.
Meanwhile, Kia Motors Corp., said it sold 50,536 units in June, down 1.5 percent from a year ago.
Kia, the smaller sister company of Hyundai Motor, said it sold 1,001 units of its flagship Cadenza sedan in June, just two months after the carmaker introduced the model in the U.S.
Hyundai and Kia are the two major flagship units of South Korea's Hyundai Motor Group, the world's fifth-largest carmaker.

Heather Maxwell, mother of a former resident, said the event
helped celebrate the advent of deinstitutionalisation, which
had been hugely positive for the intellectually disabled.
More than 160 people with intellectual disabilities entered
the community when Cherry Farm closed on November 7, 1992.
The event celebrates five services established in Dunedin to
cater for those with intellectual disabilities when Cherry
Farm closed.
These include residential projects such as the Hawksbury
Community Living Trust, and day centres including the
Connections Centre, Corstorphine.
Connections Centre programme manager, Kay Murray, said
deinstitutionalisation had been very successful for the
intellectually disabled. Instead of being "locked away", they
were part of Dunedin, enhancing the community.
In Cherry Farm, they were housed in dormitories of up to 60
residents, she said.
Up to 180 people were attending the ball, including former
residents, families and former staff.

11 reviews | 1.5 out of 5
Cover fits nicely over my 3 burner grill. Has velcro straps towards the bottom that are helpful during particularly hard rains. I didn't put the straps on and the cover came flying off during a storm so keep this in mind. Overall it appears very durable!
owned this cover for 2 months and it is completely shredded!
After about a week, there were stress points above my charcoal grill vents. A few days later, there were little rips above the vents. The next day it basically tore in half across the top, from vent to vent. I tried to tape it from underneath using all sorts of tape - clear, black plastic, masking, duct. None of the tapes held it together. I ended up throwing it in the garbage. It rained the same day, had to move the grill into the garage from the rear porch. I have never seen such shoddy craftsmanship. I was expecting it to stand up to the Florida sun and rain for at least a year. I looked through the inside of this cover into the sun, and could see many pin sized holes scattered around the material. It felt like it was made out of paper, and it sure ripped like it too. Don't waste your money on this cover.
When I first purchased this I thought "not bad for under ten bucks." It fit our grill well and seemed to be quite adequate. After about a month it developed a small tear which was easily fixed with duct tape. I figured that this was a small price to pay when purchasing an inexpensive product. After three months or so it ripped spontaneously in many locations. Just lifting it off the grill causes large pieces of the plastic to come off in your hands. You can't even line up the sides of a tear to repair it with duct tape without it falling apart. Wal-Mart's supplier made something that is "weatherproof" and obviously intended for use outdoors out of plastic that is not resistant to ultraviolet radiation from sunlight.
Within 45 days, this grill cover is disintegrating in ways I've never seen. It's crumbling and tearing into little bits. I'd have to guess that that it just can't stand up to the sun's infrared or ultraviolet. Maybe it would last if you've got it under an awning, gazebo, or porch roof in a location where the sun's rays never beam. I'm a nut about keeping receipts and original packaging and since WalMart has a 90 day return policy, I took it back and got my $9.00. These are still in stores near my house so beware--they're probably in your neighborhood store, too. As a grill cover, it's a total loss but as a biodegradeable sheet, it might be useful. If you needed to cover something for a short term and wished the plastic to biodegrade shortly thereafter, it would be useful. In our society, we use the contents of a shampoo bottle in about 1 to 2 weeks but the empty container we toss into the trash lasts for about 900 years. The company making these grill covers should not consider this a total loss. There is possibly a need for their "PVC free" formula--as they call it. Put shampoo (and such) in containers made from this. Then, when tossed onto the top level of a landfill heap, it will biodegrade in a few months exposed to the sun before it is then covered with soil to prepare for the next layer of trash. This grill cover reminds me of the old celluloid movie film that I've read about. I'm thinking they might have dragged up that "biodegradable" formula to make this imitation plastic?
I bought this to go along with the grill I bought my husband for fathers day. As soon as the weather got up close to 100 it started ripping just from the heat. One good storm and it is in shreds on my porch. I was going to repair it with duct tape, but as I tried to take it off of the grill it ripped everywhere I touched it. It might be a case of you get what you paid for, but this isn't even worth the $9.
For the price this cover is good if you keep your Grill in a covered area.
Rips very easily, and does not keep grill dry from the rain. Last storm we had the cover had ripped at the seam and grill was soaked .. hold cover up to the light you will see tons of pin holes. Spend the extra 20 bucks for a better cover!
Seems like a great deal when you first put it over your barbeque but it will dry out and become brittle and inflexible after short time in the sun. Then any movement will cause it to crack and tear. It MIGHT be okay if your barbeque is in full shade.
I am in the middle of the road, the cover is nice, and for the price. Though when I put it on part of the corner ripped. Though overall it works well, just be careful.
Our grill cover started shredding after about a month. We couldn't even take the cover off without it ripping it.
The third time the cover was used it tore on the corner of the grill. Spend a few more $ for a heavier cover.

Claim: Monica Lewinsky said the Democrats "left a bad taste in my mouth."

I voted Republican this year. The Democrats left a bad taste in my mouth.

Origins: This anecdote about Monica Lewinsky's registering as a Republican because the Democrats left a bad taste in her mouth is just a joke, meant to provoke a guffaw over what was supposed to be an ill-conceived remark that could be taken two ways. Her escapades in the Oval Office have fated her to be forever the butt of jokes about fellatio, and this specious quote is just another instance of the phenomenon.
This fabricated bon mot surfaced in 1998, back when Monica was still trying to retain some shred of dignity and protect President Clinton by maintaining she "never had a sexual relationship with the president," an extremely unlikely time for her to have been spouting off against Democrats. Moreover, despite the media feeding frenzy that

Ira Isaacs Stands Before A New Judge
Ira Isaacs Stands Before A New Judge
Attorney Roger Jon Diamond: 'There's no need to scuttle the whole trial'
Posted Jun 23rd, 2008 09:05 PM by
Mark Kernes
With attorney Roger Jon Diamond unable to attend a scheduled status conference regarding the government's obscenity case against shock artist Ira Isaacs on June 30, U.S. District Judge George King moved the conference up a week, but there were few surprises at today's hearing - not even Judge King's obvious desire to move the proceedings along swiftly.
Sitting in Courtroom 660 of the Edward R. Roybal Center this afternoon, Judge King took under advisement Diamond's Motion to object to setting a trial date, and gave Diamond until July 28 to file his motion to preclude Isaacs' retrial on grounds of double jeopardy. The late date for the motion was determined by Diamond's need to review the transcript of the previous trial under Judge Alex Kozinski, which would not be ready, according to prosecutor Ken Whitted, until July 14 - although Judge King questioned why Diamond would need the transcript at all, since the facts of the case were not in dispute.
However, Judge King relented and agreed to give Diamond "the benefit of full research" for the motion, and agreed to allow Whitted nearly three weeks after that - until August 18 - to file his response, and Diamond an additional week after that - until August 25 - to file any reply to Whitted, finally setting a court hearing on the motion for September 8 at 3:30 p.m.
The hearing lasted less than 15 minutes, but Diamond and Isaacs "held court" in the hall outside the courtroom for reporters. There, Diamond reiterated his belief that there had been no need for Judge Kozinski, who had been discovered to have had a Website containing sexually explicit material, to recuse himself from the proceedings, much less to declare a mistral in the matter. In Diamond's view, a new judge could simply have reviewed the roughly half hour's worth of transcript so far produced - just two witnesses, with no dispute about their renditions of the facts - and watch the movies that had already been played for the original jury -
Gang Bang Horse 'Pony Sex Game'
Mako's First Time Scat 2
- to get him- or herself up to speed, and then the trial could have proceeded.
Charging that the government "took advantage of Judge Kozinski on the recusal motion," Diamond averred that, "There's no need to scuttle the whole trial."
"It's government intimidation that created this problem," Diamond stated.
He added that he hoped that Judge Kozinski would not suffer any adverse consequences from the discovery of his Website, which made national news and sparked reactions from several religious pro-censorship groups.
For Isaacs' part, he appeared to have used the publicity generated by the trial to attract the attention of some art galleries and even a museum for his plan to create a multimedia installation incorporating the movies charged in the current trial along with some more mainstream artistic efforts, with the audience's reaction to both sets of "artistic" input becoming a part of the exhibit itself.
Isaacs said he hoped to "start a dialog: 'What is art?'", which he claimed was the "whole point of shock art."
Whether Isaacs' planned installation will be up and running before his next scheduled court date is unclear.

Seniors' Falling Injuries Are Preventable
Seniors Falling
WebMD Feature
Eleanor Kusel never gave much consideration to the bumps in the sidewalks or the rugs lying on the floor of her apartment. But after the 75-year-old San Franciscan fell and fractured her pelvis while getting out of a car, she began to notice the many hazards that could cause her to fall again.
"I never thought about it until this happened," Kusel said of her recent accident.
Kusel is not alone. One out of every three Americans 65 years and older falls at least once a year, with 10 percent fracturing a bone, dislocating a joint or incurring some other serious injury, said Dr. Mary Tinetti, Chief of Geriatrics at the Yale University School of Medicine.
After three months of bed rest and therapy, Kusel is gradually moving back into her daily routine. She's resumed her volunteer work at a local hospital and is once again making her way around town.
But she may be one of the luckier ones. Nearly one-half of the older Americans who incur a serious injury never fully recover and many lose their ability to function independently for the rest of their lives, said Dr. Bree Johnston, assistant clinical professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco's department of geriatrics.

Sometimes you may need extra support with daily tasks. At Brookdale Hutchinson, we offer Assisted Living care so you can receive the right kind of assistance – when you need it.
In order to assess your personal needs, we'll first do a service assessment. During the assessment, we take time to listen to you and your care needs. Based on that, we will establish clinical, dining and programs that work specifically for you.
Through years of experience serving seniors, we have developed a process that allows us to customize personal care plans for our Assisted Living residents. Your customized care plan means you only pay for the services you need and want, giving you the flexibility to change your plan.

Deeply rooted in a person-centered approach, our Alzheimer's and Dementia Care program, also called the Clare Bridge program, focuses on sustaining feelings of belonging, purpose and safety while seeking to preserve a sense of self.
