To the Editor:—
Our experience with combined sulfonamide therapy leads us to believe that Drs. Garb and Janoff, in their letter of October 2, underestimated the advantages of this method of administering sulfonamide compounds. During the past three years we have compared a sulfadiazine-sulfamerazine combination and several triple sulfonamide combinations with sulfadiazine alone with or without sodium bicarbonate. A definite reduction in the frequency with which sulfonamide crystals were encountered in urine occurred when the double combination replaced sulfadiazine. When triple combinations were used, crystals of sulfonamide drug were seldom encountered. Administered in this form, the triple combinations were as effective as sodium bicarbonate used in amounts sufficient (12 to 24 Gm. daily) to raise the pH of urine to 7.1 or higher. In earlier studies pH 7.1 was found to represent the critical pH of urine above which sulfonamide crystals seldom occurred. Administration of sodium bicarbonate

George Clooney's bella nuova has made her public debut as his date at the Venice and Deauville film festivals. And a source close to the actor says 28-year-old Sarah Larson is getting the thumbs-up from his pals.
"She's really nice and generally liked by George's friends," a source close to the actor tells PEOPLE.
Clooney, 46, "couldn't keep his hands off her" at Venice's Hotel Cipriani, site of the afterparty for Clooney's Michael Clayton, according to an observer.
"At one point he just leaned over and kissed her on the lips," says one partygoer. "My God, she is stunning." (Her $3 million worth of loaner diamonds – which the jeweler Bulgari confirmed were requested for "George Clooney's girlfriend" – didn't hurt, either.)
Larson, a onetime Fear Factor winner, works as a cocktail waitress at Las Vegas's Moon nightclub in the Palms Casino Resort, where Ocean's Thirteen had its premiere June 6. They've reportedly been inseperable ever since Larson flew to France with Clooney on Sept. 1 for the Deauville Film Festival. The two also dined with Clooney pal Matt Damon, his wife Luciana and five other friends at the L'Auberge de l'Abbaye restaurant in Beaumont-en-Auge.
A cozy couple, to be sure, but is it true amore? No one's rushing to
register yet. When an artist who met with Clooney at the Hotel Cipriani
offered to do a wedding portrait, the bachelor didn't hesitate. "Don't say
weddings around me," he said. "No weddings!"

Results vary from patient to patient hence consider only yourself when undergoing this treatment. If it suited a friend of your friend it does not imply that it will be good for you too.

Fat cells are removed very gradually and gently which makes the process suitable for almost everyone. As long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle, the results will remain valid. It is true that you lose good amount of fat with each treatment, but to maintain the effects to need to make further efforts.
Maintain a healthy diet and exercise regularly. Choose a reputed surgeon for the process or the results may not be that appropriate.

According to recent studies conducted by the National Institute of Child Health & Human Development, nearly two0thirds of the adult population in America are obese or overweight and they have one of the highest percentages of overweight children in the world. Scientifically, an individual is obese if their body mass index or BMI reads 30 or higher. This is roughly equivalent to being 30 pounds overweight. Read more about BMI on http://www.healthsupplementsformen.com/ageless-male-review/. While even a small increase in BMI can have consequences on both your body and mental health, these complications pale in comparison to the effects of severe obesity, which is being more than 100 pounds heavier than healthy with a BMI greater than 40.
Not only does obesity have consequences on health but it can also affect your quality of life. There is an increased chance of heart disease, diabetes and even cancer among other illnesses.

Try to switch it up and do different kinds of training like weights, aerobics, resistance and cardio to keep things interesting. Exercise should be accompanies by a fairly healthy diet. Try to set an example for your family and encourage everyone to eat a little healthier; you won't feel the need to back slide when you have people to support you.

Russell Wilson remembers people ripping Seahawks' 2012 draft class
Russell Wilson has not forgotten your 2012 Seahawks draft grades, jerks.
When the Seahawks put together their 2012 NFL Draft class, it was a group that was widely panned. Bruce Irvin was a stunner in the first round and Russell Wilson in the third really threw people off given the Seahawks had just signed Matt Flynn in free agency.
Boy does that sentence sound stupid now. So does all the commentary about the Seahawks' draft class. Wilson would like to remind you he hasn't forgotten the grades you gave either.
The 2012 @seahawks draft class. They graded us as an F. Now we are World Champs! #GodisGood #GoHawks pic.twitter.com/HuOjkuOYVa
— Russell Wilson (@DangeRussWilson) February 5, 2014
Wilson, everyone seems to think, is referring specifically to a Bleacher Report grade for the Seahawks. The site absolutely hammered Pete Carroll's draft, especially Wilson.
From 2012:
As if the day wasn't bad enough, Seattle selecting Russell Wilson, a QB that doesn't fit their offense at all, was by far the worst move of the draft. With the two worst moves of the draft, Seattle is the only team that received an F on draft day.
B/R wasn't alone in ripping the Seahawks' selection of Wilson; our own Pete Prisco gave the pick a D and gave the Seahawks a C+ for the entire draft, noting that Bruce Irvin is "the key" to turning it around.
Mel Kiper of ESPN gave the Seahawks a C- for the draft and questioned the Wilson pick as well. Chris Burke of SI.com pointed out that Wilson has "a bright future" but gave the Hawks a C and wondered about the pick as well because of Flynn.
There were very few people who believed in Wilson. That's OK. He's had doubters at every stop of the way on his path from high school shortstop to Super Bowl champion.
Imagining a world where Flynn leads the Seahawks to a Super Bowl seems impossible after failed stops with the Raiders and Bills, despite what he did in his return to the Packers.
Wilson is obviously the biggest value pick of the entire draft, bar none. Bobby Wagner ended up being a steal as well and J.R. Sweezy might be the most impressive pick from this draft; he started at offensive guard for the champs after a college career on the defensive line.
This wasn't a draft where every single pick was a home run. But as Wilson now reminds us, it was a whole lot better than most of the experts believed at the time.

Why Choose a Career in Health Information?
Versatile Education
By studying health information, students will acquire a versatile yet focused skill set incorporating clinical, information technology, leadership, and management skills. Health information professionals use their knowledge of information technology and records management to form the link between clinicians, administrators, technology designers, and information technology professionals.
Dynamic Career Opportunities
You can enjoy lifelong learning and continued professional development thanks to constantly evolving regulations and technologies. On top of strong job prospects, competitive salaries also await graduates.
Industries with an increased demand for health information professionals include academic institutions, consulting agencies, government agencies, and healthcare software companies. As health information technology (HIT) becomes more prevalent, health information practitioners will continue to be critical components of the electronic health record (EHR) workforce.
A career in HIM is right for you if you:
- See yourself in a career that offers diverse opportunities,
- Would like to work in health care, but not directly with patients,
- Enjoy science, but also want to deal with business, law, and technology,
- Are eager to collaborate with physicians, nurses, lawyers, administrators, and executives, and
- Are capable of working with others and on your own.
The HIM program incorporates the disciplines of medicine, management, finance, information technology, and law into one curriculum. HIM graduates can choose from an array of healthcare environments.
Job Settings
There are many possibilities in this growing field. As a Health Information Management graduate, you might find work in any of these environments:
- Ambulatory surgery center
- Behavioral or mental health provider
- Consulting service
- A school or other educational institution
- Acute care hospital
- Integrated healthcare delivery system
- Long-term care
- Clinic
- Physician's private practice
- Health Information Exchange (HIE)
- Regional Extension Center (REC)
- Hospice organization
- Biopharmaceutical company
- Rehabilitation center
In a clinic, a physician's practice, or an acute care hospital, the HIM professional is responsible for managing day-to-day office operations, patient admission, insurance verification, record keeping, chart audits, and coding.
The role of Health Information Management is evolving to match the quickly changing healthcare environment. Traditional positions, such as Department Director/Supervisor or technical roles, are now joined by other positions with a focus on health informatics and information management. With the wide-spread implementation of the electronic health record, roles are expanding in areas other than healthcare facilities. The positions include electronic health record application development and implementation, data analytics, clinical documentation improvement, and research.

Radek and his sister are super nice person. He has picked us up from the central train station. His appartment is very nice, beautiful, comfortable and clean. If you would like to have a nice travel in Prague, pls. contact Radek. He will offer your a good accommodation.
What can I say... IT WAS AWESOME! Great location, Decorated nicely, the beds were sooooo comfy, had everything we could ever possibly need! They even let us keep our dog. They had the best yummy chocolates on our pillow, and I dont mean a little kiss, but a full fledge BAR! He also provided a bowl of fruit, which came in handy since we missed lunch. It really was a great experience and a great place to say. And for us it seemed to be a great price. It was super close to the tram. The only negative is that it was on the 4th floor with no lift. But hey, we all could use some exercise!
Its a great place.everything was ok.The rooms was absolutely ok.the tramway staion is close to aprox 3 nimutes.so we are satisfacted absolutely.
Upon our arrival was waiting for her sister to Radek who explained all the fulzionamento the apartment was exactly as described and illustrated. Nice, clean and comfortable, in a few words is all it takes the necessary comforts. In the fridge there were drinks and food, towels and linen in camere.Siamo 100% satisfied with everything, and definitely recommend it.
Al nostro arrivo ad attenderci c'era la sorella di Radek che ci ha spiegato tutto il fulzionamento l'appartamento era esattamente come descritto e come illustrato. Bello, pulito e confortevole,in poche parole c'è tutto quello che serve i confort necessari. Nel frigo c'erano bevande e mangiare, gli asciugamani e biancheria nelle camere.Siamo al 100% soddisfatti di tutto, e sicuramente lo consiglio.
Radek has got a cosy apartment with a fully equipped kitchen, a nice bathroom and fine beds. All kitchen- and household utensils are present, and we were able to wash and iron our clothes. Access to WiFi is readily available. The apartment itself is located on the fourth floor, and there are no elevators present, but this was no problem for us.
Radek has been very accomodating, he showed us where we could find restaurants and stores (in the proximity of the apartment). He explained to us where we could obtain tickets to public transportation.
The city center is easily accessible with tram 11. We parked our car for free in the street in front of the apartment building.
We recommend this apartment for anyone who looks to visit Prague.
The flat was exactly as described and as depicted. Nice, clean and comfortable, with all amenities needed. It takes about 45 minutes by foot to the old town, or 15 minutes on tram. The host (Radek) was super nice and made sure we got everything we needed. We received the flat with food and drinks in the fridge (perhaps leftovers from previous residents..), suggestions and info about the city, and towels and linen in the rooms. In the last day he even gave us a ride to the train station. We are 100% satisfied with everything, and definitely recommend it.
Sehr nette und freundliche Besitzer. Apartment in einem top Zustand...dazu gab es noch eine kleine Ankunfsüberraschung. Vielen Dank
Das Appartement von Veronika und Radek ist super! Die Wohnung sieht genauso aus wie auf den Bildern und auch die Lage ist gut. Man braucht nur 15min mit der Tram bis zum Wenzelsplatz! Toll war, dass Radek uns vom Bahnhof abgeholt hat und wir gleich noch eine kleine Einführung in die Umgebung bekommen haben. Die Wohnung ist zu 100% zu empfehlen!
Wir waren als Freundeskreis zu fünft in der Wohnung. Radek war mega lieb und hat uns sogar vom Bahnhof abgeholt. Im Kühlschrank waren ein paar Lebensmittel die wir nutzen konnten und an sich ist die Küche super zur Selbstverpflegung ausgestattet. Ein Minimarkt ist in direkter Nähe, ca. eine Minute zu Fuß, aber auch größere Einkaufsläden und eine Tramstation sind zu Fuß bequem in ein paar Minuten zu erreichen.
Die Absprache hat ebenfalls bestens geklappt. Somit konnten wir ein paar sehr schöne Tage in Prag verbringen und können Radeks Wohnung nur weiterempfehlen!
Wir waren im Zeitraum vom 31.12.15 - 04.01.16 über Wimdu, in Radek's und Veronika's Wohnung untergebracht. Für uns 4 Personen war diese Wohnung völlig ausreichend. Man könnte auch zu 6 in dieser Wohnung wohnen. Sehr lieb von den beiden war, das sie uns einen vollen Kühlschrank, sowie einige Getränke hinterlassen haben, die wir natürlich aufbrauchen konnten. Fazit: Wenn wir das nächste mal in Prag sein sollten, wende ich mich als erstes an Wimdu und hoffe die Wohnung von Radek und Veronika ist noch frei. Vielen Dank auch im Namen meiner Mitreisenden.

LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Dr. David R. Smith, president of the Texas Tech Health Sciences Center, wants to focus on improving all aspects of Texas Tech University and to continue stoking the fund-raising fires when he takes over as interim chancellor in September.
Smith, 47, was chosen Monday by the university's board of regents to serve as interim chancellor when John Montford steps down as chancellor Sept. 3.
He will continue as president of the health sciences center and will earn the same $325,000 salary he now earns.
Smith, who was in Little Rock, Ark., to deliver a speech when regent chairman Robert Brown telephoned him with the offer, said he's excited at the opportunity to work more closely with the university and President David Schmidly.
"I'm obviously very honored," Smith said Monday night upon his return. "There is anticipation, excitement and surprise. It's a great, great system."
Smith, who will serve for an indefinite period, did not rule out applying for the post permanently but is not now pursuing it.
"Right now, I really want to concentrate on the job at hand," he said.
Smith said the focus will continue to be on the growth of scholarships, boosting enrollment and building the faculty, with a high-priority emphasis on research.
"That's a big plate, but I think we have to maintain that momentum," he said. "We've got to continue this effort to talk about, brag about how great Texas Tech is."
Brown said in a news release that Smith was chosen because he could continue Montford's fund-raising efforts.
Montford inaugurated the university's first-ever capital improvement campaign, a five-year plan to raise $300 million. He reached that goal in three years and raised the total to $500 million.
"The regents believed that at this time, Doctor Smith was the best individual to step in," Brown said.
Smith agreed that continuing Montford's fund-raising legacy is vital to the university maintaining the national recognition that Montford built.
"That is a job you have to continue and persist with," Smith said. "It's not something you can sit back and rest on your laurels."
Before being named president of Tech's health sciences center in 1996, Smith served four years as commissioner of the Texas Department of Health. He also is chairman of the state's Correctional Managed Health Care Committee, which oversees a health care system responsible for about 140,000 inmates.
From 1989 to 1992, Smith was senior vice president of Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas and chief executive officer and medical director of Parkland's Community Oriented Primary Care Program.
Previously, Smith served as deputy director of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Division of Special Populations and Program Development in Washington, D.C.
He also was medical director of the Brownsville Community Health Center in Texas' Lower Rio Grande Valley.
Montford, who resignation became public last week, said Monday he wants eventually to return to politics but is leaning toward first accepting a corporate post. He said he is considering three options, two of which would keep him in Texas.
The two most likely choices a corporate opportunity or an offer to join a law firm, Montford said at a news conference Monday morning. The third option is a national fund-raising opportunity.
He declined to name any of the possible positions, saying he is still in negotiations.
Montford said he wants to work out of politics for seven years or so before stepping back into the political arena. Before taking the chancellor job, he served 14 years in the Texas Senate, representing Lubbock.
He declined to say whether he would seek state or national office.

Oyster Hotel Review
With as convenient a location as Beverly Hills' larger hotels, this tiny boutique packs a lot into a small space: pool, restaurant, bar, and fitness center. Rooms aren't very big, but come with luxe amenities like Frette robes and Bulgari toiletries.
Housed in a quaint, yellow four-story building just off Wilshire Boulevard, this 49-room Beverly Hills boutique offers up more personal -- and significantly cheaper -- lodging than some of the grand Beverly Hills superhotels like the Peninsula and Beverly Wilshire. Slightly pricier than other Beverly Hills boutiques, including (Maison 140 and Luxe Rodeo), the Mosaic bridges the gap between these boutiques and the extravagant mega-hotels. It has all the boutique charm and personal service you'd expect, along with added amenities you don't -- like a car to shuttle guests around within a three-block radius, pitchers of cucumber-infused water in the lobby, and a heated outdoor pool.
Mosaic plays its name out in the distinct brown, gold, and white mosaic tiles that accent lobby walls, as well as the bar table, and the curving restaurant banquette. Other itty-bitty boutiques, take note: The greeting area -- flowing from the lobby into mosaic-tiled enclaves separating the warmly lit bar and restaurant -- is a study on how to make a limited space look invitingly cozy instead of cramped and disjointed. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the rooms. Standard rooms (called Deluxe) are noticeably small at 250 square feet and all of them are decorated in a considerably more staid fashion (the cheery gold and brown tile work of the lobby, now exchanged for muted tapestry prints). Top-of-the-line amenities like plush Frette spa robes and Bulgari toiletries help make up for the rooms' modest size. But if space is still a concern, book a Preferred Luxury Room -- these corner rooms cost a bit more and offer about 30 to 50 more square feet of space (note: Rooms 302 and 402 are the biggest corner rooms). Or request a standard Deluxe Room with outdoor patio seating -- they don't cost more, but a lot of guests don't realize that.
The Mosaic's nightly rates run a bit higher than Maison 140's or Luxe Rodeo's, but Mosaic offers the extra aforementioned features, as well as a restaurant (which the Luxe has, but Maison lacks). Score a cheap nightly rate at the Mosaic, and you'll find that this diminutive yellow house packs a lot in for the price.
In Beverly Hills, a few minutes' walk from Rodeo Drive
The Mosaic is located just off Wilshire Boulevard in Beverly Hills, an enclave of wealthy living and luxury shopping on L.A.'s westside. It's about five blocks, and a few minutes' walk, from the high-end designer shops of Rodeo Drive.
- There's little nightlife in Beverly Hills; the Sunset Strip, the mile-and-a-half stretch of Sunset Boulevard known for its cutting-edge rock clubs and night spots, is a 5- to 10-minute drive away.
- Santa Monica Beach is a 20- to 30-minute drive.
- A few miles, or about a 10- to 15-minute drive, to touristy Hollywood Boulevard, the Walk of Fame, and the celebrity footprints at Grauman's Chinese Theatre
- Universal Studios Hollywood, a movie-themed amusement park, is about 10 miles or a 25-minute drive.
- Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is about 16 miles away, a half-hour's drive in light traffic or more than twice as long in heavy traffic.

Impressive for a boutique this tiny
While the one-computer business center and one-room fitness center are pretty standard for a small boutique hotel, the free car and pool with poolside service are rare treats. (Maison 140 guests have to use the pool at Avalon; Luxe Rodeo doesn't even have access to one.)
- Small, heated outdoor pool only accommodates a max of 20 people, but you'll only see a few people out there at a time anyway; cabanas free, which is pretty unusual; poolside service with food and drinks from the restaurant.
- On-site Californian eatery, Hush, serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner off the pool area.
- The current free fitness center is not the one described on the website, with "glass-chambered treadmills and a Wii fitness center"; plans to open that center have been put on hold. In the meantime, there's a small room in the basement a single Cybex treadmill, Arctrainer, LifeCycle bike, and a weight bench with free weights
- Guests can, if they wish, also visit the Sports Club/LA in Bevelry Hills, for a daily fee
- Free car service, available on a first-come-first-served basis, will bring guests anywhere within a three-mile radius of the hotel (good for getting to and from Rodeo Drive).
- An armoire in the lobby houses the "business center," a single Dell computer and printer (there's no chair -- the porter has to bring one over every time a guest wishes to use the computer). It's not much, but it's a step up from what you get at the Thompson Beverly Hills or Maison (a laptop lying on the front desk or lobby coffee table).
- Free Wi-Fi throughout hotel
- Flat-screen TVs in rooms
- One pet less than 30 lbs. is allowed per stay for a fee.
- Sports Activity Center on-site, with cardio equipment and weights
- Sports Club/LA is available to guests for a per day fee; located several blocks away

As some of you know, I am now in exile. This saddens me, but over the past day, I have experienced a period of growth and introspection. Indeed, I feel the events of the past 24 hours have made me into an entirely new person. For, you see, a great revelation has been passed down to me from on high. Last night, while I wept at my newfound isolation, I had a vision. A beautiful woman took me to a magical land, and from there she taught me many lessons, and showed me many things. These things have transformed me into a new man, or perhaps something even greater than man. In fact, she told me to write the things I witnessed down, which I have done here. I will continue to add to it, and accurately tell the tale of my vision and divine revelation to the best of my ability. Truly, I have seen the light, and it was beautiful.
"Enlightenment must come little by little - otherwise it would overwhelm." --Idries Shah
The Book of Kudos, Pt. I: Awakening
Last night as I lay in bed, a great sadness overcame me. I tried to struggle free from its binds but my resistance was for naught. I gave in, and tears began to fall from my eyes, so many so that for a time it was like I was floating amidst a stream. I felt around my bed for something to grab on to, and struggled to wipe the tears from my eyes in order to see, but I quickly came to a startling realization: I was afloat amidst a stream, but the tears were not mine. Indeed, in the water I could see my own reflection beneath a green sun, and the look on my face was that of a grin of triumph. I looked around for some explanation, but all I could see was a sign, off on the shore. In whole, it read:
'Here flows the River of Tears
Tributary to Lake Kutaragi,
of the Realm of [illegible]'
I swam to it, and used its base to pull myself ashore. For a time I stared at it in awe, hardly believing what I was seeing. But then a voice called out to me from the wood that stretched out before me, gently and welcomingly:
'Come to me, Max. Come into the wood, and I will reveal unto you the truth of truths.'
My voice failed me, for though I tried to speak my mouth would not form words. But that voice was so beautiful, and yet so familiar, that I chose to follow it without protest. So I rose to my feet, and listening carefully to the sweet voice that beckoned me, followed it into the wood.
The forest stretched on for miles all around. The trees that surrounded me were tall and old, and the canopy they made cast all the wood into darkness. For a time, as I walked, I was convinced night had fallen. But as I glanced around I could see rays of that green sunlight breaking through cracks in the canopy, and the light from the river behind me. It was as I was gazing back the way I had came that I saw a dark figure dart across the horizon, and into the darkness to my left. I became frozen with fear, and tried to call out to the beckoning voice, but still my mouth would not move. It was then that I realized the voice had fallen silent some time ago, and that I was now alone, just myself and the darting figure in the darkness.
The fear made me want to vomit. I still had no idea where I was, and escape from this place seemed impossible, as I had come to in the middle of a river. All around me now I could hear a whirring sound, sinister but somehow sad. As I listened to its strange sounds I remembered that I came to this place while I was in bed, and wondered if I was dreaming. So I closed my eyes, gathered my strength, and told myself: If the darting-thing is to kill me, let it come. I will surely awake when it does.
With my eyes shut tight and my fists clenched so tight my fingernails were beginning to tear through my palms, I stood in the midst of the forest, fully expecting the sound to get closer and whirring-beast to devour me whole. But the sound began to fade, indeed becoming sadder, and the sound of its darting becoming instead a slow stumble. I could take it no longer, and so I opened my eyes, hoping to catch a glimpse of the thing I so feared, if only to have it force me awake. But what I saw instead was an eye, peering sadly at me, as if it were pleading silently for my help.
As I stared at it I became filled with empathy, and against my better judgment proceeded to walk cautiously toward it. As I drew closer and closer with every step the whirring sound would start again, and would grow even sadder. My steps became longer as my heart beat harder, and within a few bounds I was within feet of the eye. Unable to hold them back my eyes suddenly filled with tears, just as the whirring stopped and the eye changed its shape: a broken circle of red, with an iris of mournful green.
I dropped to my knees, just paces away from the dead thing. It all felt so familiar, and yet I couldn't make sense of any of it. Why did this darting eye mean so much to me? Who did that beautiful voice belong to? And just where was this land, with the dark forest and the shimmering green sun?
It was then that the sound of footsteps surrounded me. From all sides, people began to gather round, shuffling toward me in twos and threes. I couldn't see them, but I could clearly hear them, whispering to each other in tongues I didn't understand. Then a brilliant spotlight shone upon me and the deadened eye-thing, blinding and disorienting me. I tried to see the figures on the border of the spotlight, but all I could see now were phantoms, pointing their fingers at me and the eye as if in judgment. I covered my face and tried to gesture them away, but they only laughed, and continued to point. It was then that I realized they weren't here for me, but for the eye. They had come to mock its death, and to no doubt take it away and parade its corpse around in celebration.
The cruelty of it sickened me. Though I was filled with fear and grief, though my eyes were blinded by the light and I could not speak, and though I was surrounded at all sides, I stood tall and stared them down as best I could. But still they closed in, and continued to point menacingly. Fearing more for the dignity of the eye-thing than my own life in that moment, I snatched it up in my arms, and tried to shout at the phantoms: 'Leave it alone, you animals! It's done nothing wrong!'
To my surprise, they stepped back. Also to my surprise were the echoes my shout had made throughout the forest, repeating over and over. My voice had returned, and the phantoms were beginning to flee. I remembered the grin of triumph I saw on the reflection of my face in the river, and knew in that moment that it had returned. Why it had been there in the beginning was still a mystery, however.
I clutched the eye-thing close to my chest, and breathed a sigh of relief. They were gone. However, the spotlight still remained. I looked up at it, but had to shield my eyes from its brilliance. I stepped out from under it and into the darkness of the forest, and saw at its apex a womanly figure. I called to her, and as I did, she descended slowly to the ground. In her hand was a wand, capped with a silver orb, with a brilliantly glowing green "X" carved into it. The light was the same as this land's sun, and the woman who held it was beautiful beyond belief. She began to speak:
'Welcome, Max. You have done well, and have passed the first test. You have shown mercy to the things that most need you, as you always have. For that reason you have been blessed with this revelation.'
'As I always have?,' I asked. 'What are you talking about? Where am I?'
She strode toward me, her white gown billowing with every step. She cleared her fiery red hair from her face and smiled at me with her piercing green eyes. She reached out to me, imploringly, and I handed to her the thing she wanted: the eye-thing that I was carrying in my arms.
'You will soon see, Max. Only a select few have ever been invited here. Even fewer have passed the first test. But the road ahead is treacherous, and no one before you has ever succeeded in what follows. Do you wish to turn back?'
'No,' I said, with some reservation in my voice. 'I'd like to know why I'm here.'
'Very well,' she said. 'Then let me take you back, to the very beginning.'
She lifted her wand behind her head and thrust it forward. The light sprung out of it, and from it materalized a window into another world. I gazed into it in awe. What lay before us was my living room, in my childhood home, decorated with tinsel and garland and mistletoe. In the corner of the room, by the fireplace, sat a Christmas tree.
'Is that...?,' I asked, astonished.
'Yes,' she said confidently, evidently proud of herself. 'This is Christmas morning, 1987.'
'But that's...'
'Yes,' she interjected. 'The day you got your Master System. The day it all began.'

LOUISVILLE - Greeley West players can credit their short memories for allowing them a performance they may never forget.
Just four hours after a heartbreaking loss to Eaton, the Spartans regrouped with a jaw-dropping 23-0 mercy rule win against the same Reds team in the finals of the Legion B baseball state tournament Sunday at Monarch High School.
Because the loss was the first of the double-elimination tournament for Eaton, West must defeat the Reds (43-6) again at 2:30 today to claim the state title.
The Spartans (33-13) showed little hangover from a 6-5 loss earlier Sunday against the Reds in a matchup between the only two teams to win their first three tournament games. The game began Saturday night but was suspended because of darkness.
Eaton scored the winning run in the top of ninth and then shut down West's bats in the bottom of the ninth.
The Spartans bounced back with a gritty 6-5 win against Monarch in a semifinals elimination game, setting up the emphatic win against the Reds moments later.
"It's tough to bounce back mentally from that (early loss)," West coach Brian Holmes said. "What I told the kids, I said, 'Let's pretend like that didn't even happen,' because it went by so fast. ... I was trying to get them to put that game behind and refocus for the Monarch game."
The Spartans had a monster first inning to take a 19-0 lead against Eaton, with 11 hits to capitalize on a disastrous inning defensively for the Reds. Eaton committed four key errors in the frame, resulting in 12 unearned runs.
West forced the Reds to use four pitchers in the inning.
"The first game (against Eaton), we played one inning and didn't feel like we were 'up' yet," Spartans center fielder Jake Fisher said. "The other game, we just got the sticks going. Everyone was hitting again."
Fisher (3-for-4, four RBI) drove in the first run of the game and was second in RBI only to designated hitter Benito Loera (4-for-5, five RBI).
Monarch's batter-friendly ballpark has been kind to West, which has outscored its five tournament opponents 73-19.
After Eaton starting pitcher Brandon Koehler walked Spartans leadoff hitter James Dowgin to start the game, Austin Miller had a bunt single. Manuel Alvarez and Zach English reached on back-to-back errors.
West then unloaded with five straight hits to quickly score its first eight runs.
The early lead also allowed the Spartans to conserve pitching for today. Grant Buchanan - one of West's top pitchers - was initially slated to start in the finals against Eaton, but because the Spartans took such a big lead in the first inning, Buchanan never threw a pitch.
Taylor Juarez (7-3) started instead and pitched an effective five shutout innings (three strikeouts, one walk, four hits).
The Spartans also started well against Monarch, taking a 5-0 lead in the bottom of the second, then breaking a 5-5 tie with the eventual winning run in the sixth on an Alvarez sacrifice fly.
Loera - who has hit .700 with five doubles and 12 RBI in the tournament - said West hopes to get off to another fast start today in the winner-takes-all title game.
"We just need to put up a zero early and score a lot of runs early," Loera said. "When that happens, that puts them down and they can't do anything against us."

How to bake a frozen apple pie?
By Lynette
If you are talking about a purchased one the directions should be on the box. If it is a home made one when you go to a store, look at the directions on a box and see. Otherwise I am sure you can google it and find out.
Here is a good link & explanation:

How to bake a frozen apple pie? Thaw first? Temperature? Time?
ELAINE from Trenton, NJ
It depends on if the pie was already cooked when it was frozen. If so then thaw for about an hour or less and then bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes on 325 degrees F or until golden brown on the top crust.
If your pie was frozen with all ingredients uncooked meaning raw dough, apples, sugar, etc. then you would let thaw about the same time frame then bake for about an hour on 325 to 350 degrees F until you see that the crust is browning on top and the apples and juice content are bubbly. Also use a tooth pick to go through the dough part to see if it comes out clear if so it's done. If it's still sticky then bake a bit more. At least that's how I do my pies either cooked already or raw after being thawed.
Most pies from the store have the directions on the box. (11/10/2007)
There are directions on the back of the box it will tell you exactly what to do. If by chance you have received one not in a box, then bake it @400 degrees F for 45-60 minutes according to directions on Sara Lee boxes. (11/10/2007)

Additionally and with regards to the immunization registry, KHIE has the ability to respond to bidirectional queries and receive NDC codes.
For EHR Incentive Program Year 2017, KHIE provides support for the following public health reporting measures:
Measure 1 - Immunization Registry ReportingAny EP or EH/CAH that administers any type of immunization (influenza, pneumococcal, HPV, chickenpox, shingles, etc.) during the EHR reporting period, can submit to the immunization registry.
Measure 2 - Syndromic Surveillance ReportingIn Kentucky, all EPs or EH/CAHs collect Syndromic Surveillance data; therefore, this option is available to all providers.
Measure 3 - Specialized Registry Reporting Any EP that diagnoses and/or treats cancer patients is eligible to submit to the Kentucky Cancer Registry through KHIE for specialized registry reporting.
Measure 4 - Electronic Reportable Laboratory (ELR) Results ReportingKentucky recently adopted legislation, 902 KAR 2:020, requiring laboratory results to be reported electronically to KHIE.
KHIE supports public health reporting data submission from ONC 2014 certified electronic health record technology (CEHRT). KHIE will make a separate announcement when we are ready to begin onboarding of public health reporting from providers that are using ONC 2015 CEHRT.
(June 14, 2016) The Kentucky Medicaid EHR Incentive Program is currently accepting attestations for Program Year 2016 AIU only. We are in the process of updating the system for the new requirements. A release date has not yet been determined. Thank you for your patience.

(Feb. 29, 2016) CMS is extending the application deadline for the Medicare EHR Incentive Program hardship exception process that reduces burden on clinicians, hospitals, and critical access hospitals (CAHs). The new deadline for Eligible Professionals, Eligible Hospitals and Critical Access Hospitals is July 1, 2016. CMS is extending the deadline so providers have sufficient time to submit their applications to avoid adjustments to their Medicare payments in 2017.
In January, CMS posted new, streamlined hardship exception application forms that reduce the amount of information that eligible professionals (EPs), eligible hospitals, and CAHs must submit to apply for an exception. The new applications and instructions for providers seeking a hardship exception are available here.
(Jan. 27, 2016) As a result of recent legislation and ongoing efforts to improve the program, CMS has made important changes to the Medicare EHR Incentive Program hardship exception process. CMS has posted new, streamlined hardship applications, reducing the amount of information that eligible professionals (EPs), eligible hospitals and CAHs must submit to apply for an exception. EPs, eligible hospitals and CAHs that wish to use the streamlined application must submit their application according to the timeline established in PAMPA: Eligible Professionals: March 15, 2016 and Eligible Hospitals and CAHs: April 1, 2016.
For more information, refer to CMS's Payment Adjustments and Hardship Information website.
(Jan. 20, 2016) Last week acting administrator Andy Slavitt spoke at a conference which resulted in a media frenzy of the end of meaningful use. CMS has released a follow-up to that speech to provide more information on Slavitt's comments and the direction of meaningful use.
Please read the article in its entirety.
View older EHR announcements.
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Section 4201) established the Medicaid EHR Incentive Program for payment to certain classes of Medicaid professionals and hospitals who adopt and become meaningful users of electronic health records.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and Office of the National Coordinator have released rules to guide the program, integrating it into the broader health information technology infrastructure needed to reform the health care system and improve health care quality, efficiency and patient safety.
Information on the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs can be found on the CMS website. Administration of the Medicaid EHR Incentive Program is a combined effort of both the states and CMS. We recommend you visit the CMS website for a baseline understanding of the program and use this website to find information on Kentucky-specific questions.
The nation's health care system is undergoing a transformation in an effort to improve quality, safety and efficiency of care, from the upgrade to ICD-10 to information exchanges of EHR technology.
To help facilitate this vision, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or the HITECH Act established programs under Medicare and Medicaid to provide incentive payments for the meaningful use of certified EHR technology. David Blumenthal, MD, MPP, explains this in more detail in his article The Meaningful Use Regulation for Electronic Health Records published in The New England Journal of Medicine.
There are slight differences between the Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs. Refer to the Medicaid Provisions of the EHR Incentive Program.
The final rule published to the Federal Register on July 28, 2010, defines eligible professionals as physicians, dentists, certified nurse-midwives, nurse practitioners and physician assistants who are practicing in federally qualified health centers or rural health clinics led by a physician assistant.
To be eligible for a Medicaid EHR incentive payment, a professional must meet certain Medicaid patient volume requirements. For more information, visit the Medicaid Eligible Professionals section of the CMS website.
Eligible hospitals that may participate are acute care hospitals, critical access hospitals and children's hospitals whose CCN number falls into one of the following ranges: 0001-0879, 1300-1399 and 3300-3399.
To be eligible for a Medicaid EHR incentive payment, acute care hospitals and critical access hospitals must have at least 10 percent Medicaid (Title XIX) patient volume. Children's hospitals have no Medicaid patient volume requirements. For more information visit the Hospital section of the CMS website.

They can help him or her diagnose problems you are having with your eyes such as glaucoma, cataracts, or color blindness. They can also diagnose common problems like nearsightedness or farsightedness. Most children and adults need vision tests yearly to detect any changes in the eyes and to be evaluated for glasses or contact lenses. Follow the links below to find WebMD's comprehensive coverage about how vision tests work, how they are done and why, what to expect from an eye exam, and much more.
