People with Alzheimer's disease are less likely to participate in a clinical trial if they have non-spouse caregivers, according to a study by a team of researchers including the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. The new study, published in the December 19th, 2012, issue of Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology, demonstrates that additional recruitment and retention strategies may be required to increase enrollment of AD patients with caregivers other than spouses.
"The majority of Alzheimer's patients are cared for by caregivers who are not their spouses, but we discovered that in Alzheimer's disease clinical trials, most patients' caregivers are their spouses," said senior study author Jason Karlawish, MD, co-director of the Penn Memory Center and professor of Medicine, Medical Ethics and Health Policy in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania.
Research Coordinator Jessica Nuñez was recently awarded the 2012 Healthcare Hero award through Penn Medicine. Jessica received the nomination from Lori and Keith Crammer, a participant and informant couple formerly involved in the bapineuzumab, or Bapi, study. After getting a brochure from Penn in the mail about the award, the Crammers decided to nominate Jessica for her devotion as a research coordinator on the study and for her constantly upbeat attitude during their research visits at the Penn Memory Center.
"Why did we nominate Jess? Because we love her," Lori Crammer said.
"It's always good to see her. She always has a smile on her face," added Keith Crammer. "She's great."
For Jessica, receiving the Healthcare Hero award was a welcome pat on the back for her work as a coordinator at the Penn Memory Center.
"After working here for so many years it shows that people trust me with their loved one's care. It's an amazing feeling because you do it not for gratification but because it's something you want to find a cure for, and it feels good when someone acknowledges the dedication and time you give to the visits," Jessica said.
Be sure to take a look at Jessica's Healthcare Hero 2012 pin, which she wears proudly to commemorate the award and what her efforts mean to the Crammers.

On December 11, Melissa Livney, PsyD, clinical psychologist at the Penn Memory Center, and George and Betsy Ulmer, a couple participating in Alzheimer's research at the Penn Memory Center, were featured on NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams segment titled "Caregivers neglect their own health in order to look after others." The number of Alzheimer's patients, and in turn caregivers, in the United States is growing, and the segment focuses on the stress that Alzheimer's disease can cause for caregivers.
"People need to give themselves permission to take care of themselves," says Dr. Livney. "That's what we focus on. We don't spend much time talking about the disease and functional aspects of caring for someone with dementia. We try to help people understand how to take care of themselves."
A new study shows that Americans fear Alzheimer's more than any other disease. In this round table video segment from HuffPost Live, host Janey Varney speaks with Steven Arnold, MD, Director of the Penn Memory Center; Deborah Swiss, a caregiver; and Heather Snyder, Senior Associate Director of Medical and Scientific Relations for the Alzheimer's Association. The segment includes a discussion on Alzheimer's disease that helps shed light on the condition in honor of National Alzheimer's Awareness Month.
Hospitals and imaging centers across the country are starting to adopt a new PET scan technology that aids in diagnosing dementias including Alzheimer's disease. The scan provides clinicians and researchers with the ability to see beta amyloid plaques in the brain, a major marker in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease that until now could only be seen in an autopsy. This new technology makes it possible for clinicians and researchers to see these plaques in real time. But with a FDA label that limits its use to ruling out Alzheimer's disease, the Alzheimer's field is still figuring out its diagnostic value to older adults with cognitive complaints. Now, the medical marketplace will start to shape this value.
More than 300 centers are equipped to perform the scans, but as of now many insurers including Medicare will not cover the several thousand dollar cost of the scans. Another issue surrounding the scans is the emotional effect of revealing the results of these scans to patients and their family members.
It is possible to both have and not have Alzheimer's disease. Contradictory as this statement is, a study reported from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) supports it.
In a paper published in the October issue of the Annals of Neurology investigators reported the results of biomarker studies of 53 patients with dementia caused by Alzheimer's disease. They found a notable proportion of these patients lacked one of the signature pathologies: brain amyloid. This result has notable scientific and policy implications.
Since 2004, ADNI, a longitudinal, NIA-industry funded study, has meticulously followed a cohort of persons with normal cognition, mild cognitive impairment, and dementia caused by Alzheimer's disease. Key measures are biomarkers, a term that describes a measure that captures a complex pathologic process, such as how low density liproprotein (the LDL or "bad" cholesterol) captures the myriad of events leading to heart disease, and if abnormal, prompts a clinician to prescribe treatment.
On Saturday, November 17 the Alzheimer's Association's Walk to End Alzheimer's took place at Citizen's Bank Park in Philadelphia. The walk raised awareness and funds for care, support and research of Alzheimer's disease. The Penn Memory Center and Penn's Institute on Aging were present at this year's walk to spread the word on the aging and Alzheimer's-related services, programs and research available at Penn.
Scientists studying Alzheimer's disease are increasingly finding clues that the brain begins to deteriorate years before a person shows symptoms of dementia.
Now, research on a large extended family of 5,000 people in Colombia with a genetically driven form of Alzheimer's has found evidence that the precursors of the disease begin even earlier than previously thought, and that this early brain deterioration occurs in more ways than has been documented before.
The studies, published this month in the journal Lancet Neurology, found that the brains of people destined to develop Alzheimer's clearly show changes at least 20 years before they have any cognitive impairment. In the Colombian family, researchers saw these changes in people ages 18 to 26; on average, members of this family develop symptoms of mild cognitive impairment at 45 and of dementia at 53.
Among residents of long-term care facilities who want to vote – and studies estimate that on average about one-thirds and in some facilities as many as three-quarters do vote – nearly all require an absentee ballot. However, for residents of many nursing homes, state requirements for what is a valid absentee ballot mean that their vote may not count.
Nursing home residents are typically disabled to the degree that they need assistance performing many basic activities of daily living such as dressing, bathing and moving about a room. The journey from their room to an offsite voting booth is simply an undue burden. Voting by absentee ballot is among the most common methods to enfranchise the disabled.
But absentee balloting is also one of the most common methods of voter fraud, such as stealing multiple residents' ballots or throwing away ballots. No studies have shown, but rumors persist and cases accumulate, of long-term care facilities being the prime venue to commit such fraud.

On October 27, 2012 Steven Arnold, MD, Director of the Penn Memory Center, presented a lecture titled "New Diagnostic Studies for Mild Cognitive Impairment and Early Alzheimer's Disease" at the First Alzheimer Caribbean Conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The conference provided a forum for education and discussion not only for physicians and researchers in the field but also for health care professionals and caregivers. Topics including early diagnosis, cognition and judgment, neuropsychological testing, and non-pharmacological approaches related to Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's diaseas were discussed, and a question and answer session followed. The Puerto Rico Alzheimer's Association serves the community of Puerto Rico with services and educational programs for patients with Alzheimer's diasease and other types of dementia.

On October 18, 2012 the radiopharmaceutical substance florbetapir, a component that helps indicate the presence of biomarkers in the brain helpful in diagnosing Alzheimer's disease, was approved for use in the radioactive dye Amyvid in Europe by the European Medicines Agency.
Florbetapir is the active substance in Amyvid. Florbetapir functions by binding to beta amyloid plaques in the brain, which have been found to be present in neurodegenerative dementias including Alzheimer's disease. Amyvid is a solution which, when injected, has the ability to show the presence of beta amyloid plaques in the brain using Positron Emmission Tomography, or PET scans.
Amyvid can be used diagnostically to show plaque density in the brains of adult patients with cognitive impairment who are being evaluated for Alzheimer's disease and other forms of cognitive impairment. It can also assist in showing a negative scan, which indicates no plaques and is not consistent with a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease.
My mother believed in a simple philosophy: that if you could do something, you should do something. If she heard of someone in trouble or a cause close to her heart, she would look at me and say "We should do something about this!" Or, and sometimes more often, "YOU should do something about this!"
My mother doesn't say that anymore. She died this year from Early Onset Alzheimer's disease, an aggressive form of the disease that usually strikes in your 40's and 50's. When I think of what my mother went through, what millions of Alzheimer's patients are still going through, I can once again see and hear her clearly, "Do something about this!"
But what can we do about Alzheimer's disease?
Because my mother was so young, my family saw the full spectrum of Alzheimer's, from beginning, to tragic end. I've said repeatedly, no one wants a front row seat to this illness. Though it was a dark and difficult journey, I was awed and inspired by some amazing people -- people who faced Alzheimer's head on and decided to "do something" about it.

The 6th Annual Penn Memory Center Thank You Breakfast drew a packed crowd to the Inn at Penn's Woodlands Ballroom on October 20, 2012. The theme of the annual invitation-only breakfast is to thank research participants for their contribution to Penn's Alzheimer's disease research.
Over 200 research participants along with their family members and guests gathered to enjoy eggs, bacon, fruit and pastries before attending presentations on the latest updates in Alzheimer's disease and the results of Alzheimer's disease research done at the Penn Memory Center.
Doctors John Trojanowski, Steven E. Arnold, David Wolk, Jason Karlawish, and Penn Memory Center Associate Director for Clinical and Research Operations Felicia Greenfield each presented the latest results from their research studies as well as updates on Penn Memory Center programs and upcoming research opportunities. The presentations concluded with an open question and answer session. Guests' questions ranged from how biomarker results are used in clinical practice to the current and future state of Alzheimer's disease research.
Guests' evaluations were overwhelmingly positive. Comments from the evaluations included:
"I find this program great. It gives me some hope, and learning about the disease is very informative. Thank you for all you do."
"This is a much appreciated event in recognition of the efforts of those of us who want to help."
"Your research is wonderful and your sharing it like this is unbelievably generous and much appreciated."

Just in case you need another reason to cut back on junk food, it now turns out that Alzheimer's could well be a form of diet-induced diabetes. That's the bad news. The good news is that laying off soda, doughnuts, processed meats and fries could allow you to keep your mind intact until your body fails you.
We used to think there were two types of diabetes: the type you're born with (Type 1) and the type you "get." That's called Type 2, and was called "adult onset" until it started ravaging kids. Type 2 is brought about by a combination of factors, including overeating, American-style.
The idea that Alzheimer's might be Type 3 diabetes has been around since 2005, but the connection between poor diet and Alzheimer's is becoming more convincing, as summarized in a cover story in New Scientist entitled "Food for Thought: What You Eat May Be Killing Your Brain." (The graphic — a chocolate brain with a huge piece missing — is creepy. But for the record: chocolate is not the enemy.)
The studies are increasingly persuasive, and unsurprising when you understand the role of insulin in the body.
A syndrome called "post-operative cognitive decline" has been coined to refer to the commonly reported loss of cognitive abilities, usually in older adults, in the days to weeks after surgery. In fact, some patients time the onset of their Alzheimer's disease symptoms from a surgical procedure. Exactly how the trio of anesthesia, surgery, and dementia interact is clinically inconclusive, yet of great concern to patients, their families and physicians.
A year ago, researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania reported that Alzheimer's pathology, as reflected by cerebral spinal fluid biomarkers, might be increased in patients after surgery and anesthesia. However, it is not clear whether the anesthetic drugs or the surgical procedure itself was responsible. To separate these possibilities, the group turned to a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.
The results, published online this month in the Annals of Surgery, show that surgery itself, rather than anesthesia, has the more profound impact on a dementia-vulnerable brain.
David Wolk, MD, Assistant Director of the Penn Memory Center and Assistant Professor of Medicine, has been elected to the Memory Disorders Research Society (MDRS).
Started in Boston in 1989, the MDRS is a professional society dedicated to the study of memory and memory disorders. Members of the society share the common goal of conducting clinical research to investigate how memory works and how it malfunctions.
The society's 140 members come from the United States, Canada, England, France, Germany, and Italy. Invitation to the society is extended only to individuals with a faculty appointment and international prominence in memory disorders research.
The society meets once a year, and the 2013 meeting will be held in Toronto, Canada.
This week, a strategic roadmap to help to the nation's health care system cope with the impending public health crisis caused Alzheimer's disease and related dementia will be published in Alzheimer's & Dementia: The Journal of the Alzheimer's Association. The plan aims to link the latest scientific findings with clinical care and bring together patients, families, scientists, pharmaceutical companies, regulatory agencies, and advocacy organizations behind a common set of prioritized goals. The consensus document is the outcome of a June meeting of leading Alzheimer's researchers, advocates and clinicians, who gathered as part of the Marian S. Ware Alzheimer Program at the University of Pennsylvania.
Today, 5.4 million people are living with the disease, and more than 15 million Americans are caring for persons with Alzheimer's and other dementias, according to the Alzheimer's Association. Alzheimer's disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States and the only cause of death among the top 10 in the United States that cannot be prevented, cured, or even slowed.
"Alzheimer's is an enormous and complex disease, and we believe that creative thinking, repurposing of existing funds, vigilance in reducing waste, and a constant focus on cost effectiveness will help make these recommendations a much-needed reality," said John Trojanowski, MD, PhD, senior author and director of the Penn Alzheimer's Disease Core Center.
"The diverse perspectives collected in this report provide constructive, ethical, cost-effective guidance for policymakers," said second author Jason Karlawish, MD, associate director of the Penn Memory Center. "The recommendations serve as a clear roadmap to bring caregivers, researchers, clinicians, and advocacy groups together and provide them much-needed support now and in the future."

Jacob Aucoin, 25, of Degravelle Road was arrested Saturday at 1 a.m. and charged with improper lane usage, first-offense driving while intoxicated and aggravated flight from an officer, Morgan City Police Chief Marc Folse said.
The incident began when an officer on patrol near Business 90 and Ditch Avenue observed Aucoin westbound in the turning lane apparently traveling at a higher speed than the posted 35 mph limit.
As officers approached the vehicle, Aucoin began to accelerate. When officers attempted to stop Aucoin near the U.S. 90-La. 70 junction, the vehicle made a right turn onto the ramp to U.S. 90 and headed eastbound, Folse said.
Officers pursued the vehicle, now travelling in excess of 120 mph, out of the city limits towards Amelia, and along the way, Aucoin nearly caused several accidents with other eastbound vehicles, the chief said.
He exited U.S. 90 at the Amelia exit and headed north on Lake Palourde Bypass Road where he topped 110 mph before he attempted to make a turn onto Lakeview Road.
However, Folse said while attempting the turn, Aucoin entered the yard at 1192 Lakeview Road, made a 180-degree turn and began heading toward the officers, nearly striking their unit head-on.
He then struck a carport awning and three vehicles parked beneath it while continuing to evade officers, the chief said.
Aucoin eventually lost control and nose-dived the vehicle into the drainage ditch at Lake Palourde Bypass and Lakeview roads, Folse said.
Aucoin was arrested and transported to Teche Regional Medical Center in Morgan City where he was treated for cuts sustained after crashing into the ditch.
Upon his release, he was transported to the station where he failed a field sobriety test and recorded a blood-alcohol content of .180 grams-percent via chemical testing, the chief said.
He remained in the City Jail this morning with bond set at $250,000.
Elsewhere, Harold Turner, 62, of Adams Street, Morgan City, was arrested Saturday at 3:03 a.m. and charged with possession of cocaine after officers were dispatched to Florida Alley and Barrow Street in regards to a possible narcotics transaction, Folse said.
Officers observed Turner traveling south on Florida Street on a bicycle, and upon officers' approach, he dropped something on the ground, the chief said.
He was detained and officers located a white rock of suspected crack cocaine near where Turner was first observed, Folse said.
He remained in the City Jail this morning with no bond set.
In other local police news, Jane Gugliotta, 42, of Francis Street, Berwick, was arrested Friday at 3:07 p.m. on a warrant for possession of Soma after she was located at her residence, St. Mary Parish Sheriff Mark Hebert said.
She was released from the Parish Jail on a $5,000 bond.
Chad Kirkland, 27, of Field Street, Bayou Vista, and Katie Couvillier, 21, of New Iberia were arrested Friday at 6:47 p.m. and charged with possession of Adderal and marijuana after the vehicle they were traveling in was stopped for crossing the center line on Universe Street.
The Morgan City Police Department K-9 officer was called to the scene and alerted to something in the vehicle, Hebert said.
St. Mary Parish Multi-jurisdictional Drug Task Force agents subsequently found marijuana and Adderal pills, the sheriff said.
Both were booked into the Parish Jail with Kirkland remaining incarcerated this morning with bond set at $7,000, while Couvillier later was released.

A hundred years ago the structure at 110 College St. in Buffalo was a much different place than the worn and weathered building that stands there today.
Built sometime in the early 1900s — probably about 1908 — the Queen Anne-influenced building welcomed guests as one of two hotels in a growing community thriving with commerce.
Those days vanished, and the structure became a private residence, but if Ron Meyer has his way, those days are on the way back.
"I had the idea to open a bed and breakfast," Meyer said.
Meyer, who lived in Tonieville before moving to California for several years, returned to the area in November 2008. He bought a house on College Street, just down the street from the former hotel.
The hotel was being used as a private residence and was located on the corner of College Street, facing Ky. 470.
"So every day I passed by this house," he said, explaining he admired it.
Because Meyer had worked as a painter, he had some experience with contract work.
When the opportunity arose, Meyer arranged to buy the house. He closed on it in May.
"I never thought I'd end up being the owner," he said.
Since then, Meyer has worked on restoring the house with help of others, including friend Shad Rossman and carpenter Ricky "Cricket" Harris.
"I've known 'Cricket' for 20 years," Meyer said.
Last week, as Harris worked to replace the poplar siding on the house, he admitted the project was not like most others he's been involved with.
"It's probably the biggest one," Harris said.
Siding, interior walls, floors, electrical and plumbing all are on the work schedule. Though Meyer is a licensed journeyman painter, electrical and plumbing are his "weak points," he said.
"It's going to take quite a bit," Meyer said. "And it's going to take a few years."
Meyer said it likely will take three to five years to complete the renovation.
"I'll take it one floor at a time," Meyer said.
When completed, Meyer plans to have special themes for each of the available rooms at his bed and breakfast, such as a Lincoln room and a Derby room.
"I'm kind of wanting to keep it Kentucky focused," he said.
Eventually he hopes to have an upscale dining facility at the bed and breakfast as well.
The National Register of Historic Places lists the building by the name McClain Hotel, which it describes as a "gable-front, five bay, asymmetrical plan, two-story frame building built circa 1908." It's importance, the organization says, is because of its "association with early 20th century commerce in Buffalo."
At one point the hotel might have been called the Keith Hotel, after C.E. Keith, who is credited with its construction, but that is not certain, the NRHP says.
In 1923 the hotel was purchased by J.H. McClain. The McClain family operated the business until 1945, except for a brief period in the 1920s, when it was owned and operated by C.H. Dixon. Evidence exists that it was called The Dixon Hotel at that time.
Another hotel called the Beauchamp Hotel was a block away but was razed in the 1960s, the NRHP says.
The loss of the hotels over the years means a lack of places to stay for visitors to LaRue county, Meyer said. He wants to change that.
"I'd just like ... to have an upscale place for people to visit," he said.
Before Meyer took on the project, he had looked at another location and formed a business plan. His mother thought the idea was a good one, too, and since has created her own bed and breakfast in Tonieville.
Meyer said he has been able to get an inside look at the process, which will help him in the long run.
For now, he is focused on getting the project done, little by little.
"Our goal right now is to get the outside finished by the first of the year," Meyer said.
Rossman, who helps with the lawn and assists with the work, echoed the sentiment of taking the work little by little.
"It's baby steps, man," Rossman said.
The project also has caught the attention of neighbors including Josh Taylor, who visited the site with his cousin, Travis Druen, during recent renovation work. Taylor lives behind the building.
"I know one thing," he said. "The whole neighborhood appreciates it."

Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there for Elkin High School.
Beth Felts, career and technical teacher at Elkin High School, was awarded a $1,500 grant from State Farm titled Good Neighbor Grant. The grant will allow Felts' project management students to write and publish a character-education book for Elkin Elementary School's third graders.
"High school students in a project management class will be writing five short stories compiled into one book," Felts said. "The students will all come up for the titles of the stories, the characters, and the writing. The students will have their name as published authors and illustrators of the book."
Every student in third grade will receive a copy of the book, copies of the book will be given to all second and third grade teachers to keep in their classrooms, and copies of the book will be placed in the media center for other students to check out.
"The thing that I really love about Ms. Felts is that she really has student ownership in these projects, and she is combining with outside agencies and helping kids to see beyond the classroom and a textbook," Superintendent Dr. Randy Bledsoe said. "She is doing live projects which mean so much."

Eli Lilly and Co. will pay Canadian drug developer Transition Therapeutics Inc. $7 million and take over the development of a potential diabetes treatment heading into mid-stage clinical testing. According to the Associated Press, Transition said Monday it also could receive up to $240 million in additional payments, plus royalties, if the treatment is eventually approved and sold. It also will pay Indianapolis-based Lilly $14 million in three installments during the mid-stage study. The drug, labeled TT-401, is being developed to treat the most common form of diabetes, type 2, and accompanying obesity. Demand for drugs that treat diabetes is climbing as rising instances of obesity are causing an explosion of diabetes cases globally.
The Indiana University School of Medicine won a $1 million grant from the American Medical Association to
launch a virtual health system curriculum for training medical students. The med school is one of 11 grant recipients. IU
will use a teaching version of an electronic medical record system to help students use huge quantities of data to make clinical
decisions, as well as to monitor the cost of their decisions. Medical school officials said the virtual health system curriculum
will be better suited to the changing health care environment its students will encounter after graduation.
Starting July 1, a new state law will allow pharmacists to administer vaccinations for
pneumonia, tetanus, diphtheria, acellular pertussis, HPV infections and meningitis, according to The Statehouse File news
service. Currently, the only immunizations pharmacists can administer are flu shots. Pharmacists must continue to perform
immunizations under physician-monitored guidelines. More than 40 states allow pharmacists to provide immunizations, although
requirements for education and oversight vary. In Indiana, pharmacists must undergo immunization training. Already, the state
has more than 2,700 pharmacists trained to provide the shots and several hundred new ones are added annually.
Riley Hospital for Children at Indiana University Health has chosen Russell Williams as its next chief operating
officer, replacing Brett Lee, who left suddenly two years ago. Williams will join Riley on July 15 after
serving most recently as vice president of operations at Fairview Southdale Hospital in Minnesota. He previously oversaw construction
of a children's hospital for Fairview Health Services, which includes the University of Minnesota academic medical center.
Williams earned a bachelor's degree from Brigham Young University and a master's of healthcare administration from
the University of Minnesota.
Dr. John Chappo, a hospitalist who cares for patients staying overnight in hospitals, has joined Danville-based
Hendricks Regional Health. He holds a bachelor's in biochemistry from Indiana University and an osteopathic medicine
degree from the Kansas City University School of Medicine and Biosciences.
Affiliates of Planned Parenthood in Indiana and Kentucky plan to merge on July 1 in an effort to pool resources, meet the challenges
of the changing health care landscape, and potentially expand their reproductive-health services. The new not-for-profit is
expected to be named Planned Parenthood of Indiana and Kentucky—or PPINK—and continue to operate
the 28 existing health centers, with 26 of those in Indiana. Three of those Indiana centers perform abortions, but the Kentucky
centers do not. The group will be based in Indianapolis, and employ 190 people in its health centers and administrative office.
Betty Cockrum, president and CEO of the Indiana organization, will serve in the same role for the merged group. Mergers are
common among the Planned Parenthood affiliates, according to the organization. At one time, the national Planned Parenthood
family had more than 200 affiliates; there are now just 73. PPIN merged multiple times to become a statewide affiliate in
Indiana University Health has agreed to sell its eight occupational health clinics to a California-based
chain that specializes in Workers' Compensation cases. US HealthWorks Medical Group, which already operates nearly 200
clinics in 17 states, agreed in May to acquire the eight clinics from IU Health, the largest hospital system in Indiana. The
deal is expected to close before July. Neither entity disclosed the purchase price. US HealthWorks has offered jobs to 126
of the clinics' 149 workers. IU Health, which will maintain a role in serving clinic patients, has offered positions to
20 of those not hired by US HealthWorks and is working to place the remaining workers. US HealthWorks has been expanding rapidly
even as the number of workers' comp cases trends down nationally. US HealthWorks operates occupational health clinics
in Elkhart, Goshen, Muncie and Warsaw.
Franciscan St. Francis Health will close two After-Hours Clinics on the south side of Indianapolis at month's
end. The hospital system offered no explanation for the closures. It noted that it will keep operating a third After-Hours
Clinic in Mooresville, and also will maintain two other immediate care clinics in the southern suburbs of Indianapolis. The
clinics that will close are in Beech Grove at 2030 Churchman Ave. and near Franciscan's Indianapolis hospital at 7855
S. Emerson Ave.
The state of Indiana plans to spend $37 million more each year reimbursing health care providers who treat Medicaid
patients, partially reversing a 5-percent rate cut the state adopted in 2010 while struggling through the impacts of the national
recession. A spokeswoman for Gov. Mike Pence said the increase would amount to 2 percent more for hospitals, nursing facilities,
home health and immediate care providers. Cuts in how much the state Medicaid plan pays for dental, vision, medical transportation
and other areas will be fully restored. The Legislature paid for the increased rates in their recently passed, $30 billion
biennial budget.
Marian University in Indianapolis has announced it has reached its limit of 162 students for the incoming class of its new
College of Osteopathic Medicine. School officials said they have received tuition deposits from 162 applicants. They say those
students can still pursue their education elsewhere, but the school has a waiting list. They said they are confident they
can fill any vacancies that arise.
The Indiana Blood Center is streamlining its blood mobile operations, closing a donor center and taking
other cost-cutting measures in response to shrinking revenue from hospitals. The not-for-profit
blood center announced June 4 that demand from hospitals has fallen 24 percent over the past year. That is forcing it to take
steps that also include freezing management salaries, eliminating 45 positions, and discontinuing a therapeutic phlebotomy
program. The blood center supplies more than 60 Indiana hospitals. It is funded by fees it charges those facilities to recruit
donors and collect, test, process, label, store and distribute blood.
Michael Cook has joined the local office of CBRE Group Inc. as a senior vice president with an emphasis on corporate services and advisory of multi-market industrial and manufacturing clients.
The average rate for 30-year mortgages rose from 3.99 percent to 4.1 percent for the week ended June 5, according to Bankrate.com. The rate for 15-year mortgages rose from 3.21 percent to 3.28 percent.

WellPoint Inc. named Lewis Hay III to its board of directors after announcing earlier this month that three members had resigned for personal reasons. He serves as executive chairman of Juno Beach, Fla.-based NextEra Energy Inc. but will retire at the end of this year. He was CEO of that company from 2001 through last year. WellPoint, the nation's second-largest health insurer, said May 13 that three long-standing board members—Sheila P. Burke, Dr. Lenox D. Baker Jr. and Susan B. Bayh—had left the board but did not resign due to disagreements or disputes with the company.
Carmel-based Mainstreet Property Group plans to build a 100-bed "health care resort" on seven
acres at 5404 Georgetown Road, according to a tax-abatement request filed with the city. The $9.25-million, 65,000-square-foot
nursing-home and assisted-living facility would feature an Internet cafe, movie theaters and restaurant-style dining with
an on-site chef, spokeswoman Kate Snedeker said. Seventy of the beds would be for skilled nursing and 30 for assisted-living
residents. Mainstreet would lease the property to a third-party operator, which hasn't been identified. Mainstreet estimates
the operator would employ 80 people earning an average $17.30 per hour. Mainstreet is seeking a three-year property-tax abatement
that would save the company about $468,000, according to a preliminary resolution that goes before the Metropolitan Development
Commission on June 5.
Indiana University and Purdue University joined nine other members of the Big Ten athletic
conference June 1 to form the Big Ten Cancer Research Consortium. The schools intend to conduct collaborative clinical trials
to develop insights and products to treat cancer. Indianapolis-based cancer research organization Hoosier Oncology
Group will serve as administrative headquarters for the consortium. Since 1984, Hoosier Oncology Group has initiated
more than 150 clinical trials with more than 4,000 patients. "The advantage of this, particularly during a time of austerity
for research, is that we can build upon the strengths of the institutions and fortify some of the shortcomings," Dr.
Patrick Loehrer, director of the IU Melvin and Bren Simon Cancer Center, said in a prepared statement.
Eli Lilly and Co. suffered a setback on one of its attempts to win approval for new indications for its
blockbuster lung cancer drug Alimta. The drug did not extend progression-free survival times longer than the old chemotherapy
drug paclitaxel when studied in a clinical trial of patients with nonsquamous non-small lung cancer. Paclitaxel, or Taxol,
was given to patients with two other chemotherapy agents, carboplatin and bevacizumab. Alimta was given to patients along
with carboplatin. Alimta had nearly $2.6 billion in global sales last year, but its rate of growth slowed to just 5 percent.
Lilly hoped a new indication would reignite Alimta growth rates, helping it offset revenue Lilly will lose in the next year
as patents on its drugs Cymbalta and Evista expire. Alimta, by contrast, has patents that will likely extend its life through
St. Vincent Health will lay off an unspecified number of employees across its 22-hospital network by June 30 in a cost-saving move the hospital blamed on Obamacare, cuts to Medicare reimbursement, and lower-than-expected volumes of patient procedures. Indianapolis-based St. Vincent, which is the second-largest hospital system in Indiana, employs nearly 18,000 workers. The Catholic organization is the sixth-largest employer in the state. St. Vincent spokesman Johnny Smith on May 23 declined to give an estimate of the number of people who will lose their jobs in the restructuring, saying St. Vincent executives had more work to do to discern which positions to eliminate. He said the job losses would be among both permanent workers and contract employees. He also said St. Vincent will look for expense reductions in its administrative functions, supply purchasing, and programs and services. He said he could not provide specific examples at this time. Other hospitals have been cutting expenses, too. Indiana University Health, the state's largest hospital system, earlier this year delayed plans to expand its Methodist Hospital downtown. Also, IU Health CEO Dan Evans has said the hospital system intends to cut $1 billion—or more than 20 percent of its expenses—over the next four years, which would likely include staff reductions. Also, Community Health Network has cut out more than $100 million in annual expenses since 2009. It hopes to trim out a total of $300 million by 2015.
Indianapolis-based WellPoint Inc. was one of 13 insurers selected to participate in California's state health exchange, according to Bloomberg News. The selection is important for WellPoint, because the exchanges are likely to become the most common way its large numbers of individual and small-business customers buy insurance in the future. While the premiums the insurers will charge vary widely depending on a person's location and income, the director of the exchange said May 23 that premium increases will be less than the 30-percent jump projected by consulting company Milliman Inc. However, few other states have followed California in having the state government be an "active purchaser" of health plans, which may help hold down premiums more than in other states' exchanges.
Eli Lilly and Co. signed its fourth deal in the past year with a company to help it produce companion diagnostics to accompany its experimental drugs. On May 23, Denver-based Corgenix Medical Corp. announced that it would collaborate with Indianapolis-based Lilly for diagnostic tests to identify the patients most helped by Lilly's experimental cancer drugs. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Nearly a year ago, Lilly inked a deal with Massachusetts-based PrimeraDx to develop companion diagnostics for cancer and other types of drugs. Then in January, Lilly signed on to a similar arrangement wth Dako, a Denmark-based unit of California-based Agilent Technologies Inc. And in February, Lilly said it was expanding its partnership with Germany-based Qiagen, N.V., to develop companion diagnostics for all kinds of drugs. Qiagen already helped Lilly and New York-based Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. develop a test to identify subsets of patients that benefit most from the cancer drug Erbitux.

Will Blake Griffin stay? Is the Bible America's fav book?
We have questions today:
Is a star Sooner staying or leaving? What is America's favorite book? Which star was booted from Dancing with the Stars?
3 Things You Should Know Today.
The Oklahoman's Scott Wright is reporting it appears Blake Griffin's decision day has arrived. The Oklahoma freshman and coach Jeff Capel have scheduled a news conference at Lloyd Noble Center for 1 p.m. today where it is expected that Griffin will announce his intentions for next basketball season.
We will have updates throughout today on NewsOK. Damon Fontenot will fille a video report on NewsOK.tv as well.
The most popular book is the Bible, according to a new survey. It came in first in a Harris Poll of nearly 2,513 adults but the second choice in the survey was not as clear cut. Men chose J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings" and women selected Margaret Mitchell's "Gone With the Wind" as their second-favorite book. But the second choice for 18- to 31-year-olds was J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series, while 32- to 43-year-olds named Stephen King's "The Stand" and Dan Brown's "Angels and Demons."
Last place became last dance for Adam Carolla on "Dancing With the Stars." The 43-year-old comedian and his professional partner, two-time champ Julianne Hough, were eliminated from the ABC dance-off during Tuesday's results show.

The 43-year-old faced four misdemeanor counts of not filing federal income tax returns from 2006 to 2009. Over that time, he allegedly made more than $1 million, including income from a charity he founded.
The judge asked Zorich if he knew he was wrong not to file the returns.
"Yes, your honor," Zorich said, wearing a black suit and tie.
His attorney previously said Zorich was looking forward to putting the case behind him.
The Chicago native was on the 1988 Notre Dame team that won a national championship. He played for the Bears from 1991 to 1996 and ended his career with the Washington Redskins in 1997.
Zorich must pay $71,000 in back taxes as part of a plea agreement. He is to be sentenced July 12.
Each count carries a maximum sentence of a year in prison and a $100,000 fine.

Wow, Toyota is leaving Ford and GM combined profits and stock in the dust at 13B and $127 respectively. Where's DF , or WS when one needs a good GM IPO laugh!
Noticed your very snazzy avatar on several buddy sites. we should be buddies
>Remember "no taxation without representation"? That's exactly what's going on now.< You have representation. The fact it is ineffective is your own fault. If the guy you wanted didn't get elected, it's also your fault. You didn't campaign hard enough for him. If course, if you're as arrogant and as clueless as "Etch-A-Sketch" Romney, it's awfully hard to get elected dog catcher.

Hi, BIG congratulations on having the dedication to post for 1,900 consecutive days. WOW!! Keep up the great work and Good Luck in the future! Want to become buddies??? Warren :-)
Thx, Shep! The press likes to focus in on the $ numbers for profits. Very few look at the % net profit numbers. Usually, Big Oil cos are right in the middle of the S&P 500 as far as % net profit numbers are concerned, i.e. about half the SP500 cos are MORE profitable than Big Oil. BTW, crude prices above $120-125/bbl reduces their profit margins.
Thought you might find this interesting. Big Oil's most profitable quarter ever: $51.5 billion - ABC News abcnews.go.com/Business/story?id=5503955&page=1 Chevron and Total wrapped up a string of gargantuan, record-breaking earnings reports from oil companies on Friday, a stretch in which six of the major ...

Though other, longer-lived blogs have found limited success with this, I'm confident that my meager double-digit Technorati authority will lift On the Tenure Track to the cusp. Which cusp is another matter, for another date.
Just click on the image above, and select On the Tenure Track when you do the poll. I'm about halfway down the list or so.
In the meantime, enjoy the following historical recording of the first high-tech user helpline.
We saw this in my godforsaken credential class, using it as a touchstone for discussion about English-language learners and how best to reach out when teaching the really basic skills. That in high school we have to teach really basic skills is a travesty. Call it a tragedy, if you prefer, but I try to avoid cliches.
How basic should I get, when I deal with real, mainstreamed English language learners? How much should I rely on modeling, or pictures, or charts, or graphs? Any more than normal, or should I instead concentrate on vocabulary acquisition?
