Despite Knowledge of His Addiction, Rangers Allegedly Prescribed Boogaard 366 Pain Pills
Written by Kevin on .
Back in May, the family of Derek Boogaard filed a wrongful-death lawsuit against the NHL as they felt the league was responsible for the physical trauma and brain damage that he sustained during six seasons as one of the league's top enforcers, and for the addiction to prescription painkillers that marked his final two years.
Yesterday that lawsuit was made public and the allegations are startling.
According to the lawsuit, despite Boogard's "Aftercare Program" restricting Ambien and prescription pain medications during the 2010-11 season, he received 366 pain pills from Rangers physicians, dentists, trainers and staff ...
The lawsuit also states that at one Rangers practice in April of 2011, Boogaard was so impaired that he couldn't stay up on his skates and fell numerous times.
The Minnesota Wild are accused of prescribing 1,021 pain pills for Boogaard.
...wow. If these allegations prove to be true, this is disgusting negligence on the part of both the Rangers and Wild medical staffs that should not only lead to dismissals but also jail time.
...absolutely boggles my mind that the Rangers and Wild doctors could ignore those warnings and prescribe an absurd amount medications to basically a junkie. Do they even have a conscience?
...now having said that, we live in a America, so the NHL, Wild and Rangers are innocent until proven guilty, but man, just looking at the specifics of the lawsuit, it doesn't look real good for them.

H/T to Pro Hockey Talk.
During the summer of 2011, The New York Rangers Blog raised $7.000 in t-shirt sales for Defending the Blueline in memory of Boogaard (Here & here).
I can't blame the parents for going after the NYR org for not taking better care of their son. The articles I read after his death claimed that he was getting large quantities of oxys illegally on the side to deal with his pain and depression likely caused by numerous concussions. It's the concussions that should have been addressed right away. What bothered me about this is that he seemed to have no one checking on him. He was all alone in his apartment depressed , in pain and strung out. The lack of support from the team and orginization seems as negligent as a dr prescribing 90 hydros.
This is kinda similar to the AEG lawsuit over Michael Jackson's death. I doubt AEG knew what Conrad Murray was doing, but they can still legally be sued and found liable for damages. Similarly, I doubt the Rangers organization micro-manages their medical staff because they trust that they are going to do their jobs adequately. But while the organization may not have known what was going on with the prescriptions, they are still liable for the results, legally. It doesn't mean they're a corrupt callous organization, it just means they hired bad doctors.
Wow, this is difficult to read. It's really, really sad to see that Boogie was in so much pain and didn't get the treatment that he needed.
There really aren't any easy answers for the bigger problem here. We expect these guys to go out and battle each other, block shots and literally beat each other up game after game, season after season. I cannot possibly imagine the physical and mental toll it takes to be a professional hockey player. Without medical treatment, surgeries and prescription pain killers, these guys would not be able to do what they do. Most, if not all of these players take prescription medication regularly. If there was no pain medication, hockey as we know and love it would simply not exist.
The players and coaches just want to be able to go out and play and I'm sure are putting the doctors in a difficult situation. I'm sure you don't get to be the team doctor if you are conservative in your approach to pain management. The fans want fights and hits and get upset when there is talk of banning fighting. Yet we are shocked when fighters like Boogie end up addicted to pain medication and sleeping pills.
Was Boogaard's death tragic? Yes. Was his care mismanaged? Probably. Is this case as easy as suing a doctor for malpractice? NOT AT ALL.
This was my comment yesterday after hearing how the NYR treat bloggers:
"Funny how as I get older my interests become less about the uniform and more about the human side of things. I find myself cheering players on teams, or teams themselves by the way they handle themselves on the field of play, in the public eye, or as far as one can tell in the world in general.
It will happen to all of you. You'll notice when you find yourself looking at Pedroia playing and handling himself like a pro and instead of rooting against him actually enjoying yourself watching him play and in a strange way rooting for him. I have been a lifelong Sox fan and have always felt that way about Mo. Love the guy.
Without having full details I've got to say that at first blush seeing how the Rangers organization treats bloggers drops my opinion of them.
The Rangers should not be so full of themselves to think that they b/c they don't need the grass roots PR here that they can/should stonewall it. It shows lack of class and dignity. Imagine if it were a person ignoring those he needed at one time, but now doesn't b/c he reached a certain level of success. That would be the definition of a d*uche bag.
Step it up Rangers. Learn how to be magnanimous. "
Now this....??? Pay attention people. BUSINESS' DO NOT CARE ABOUT PEOPLE....ONLY MONEY. Only people can care bout people and in strangely the only way we can wrest the power away from the business is by money, as in not using it to buy their products. This fucking sucks. I can't imagine being a relative of Boogaard and seeing this.
this is the world we live in. athletes get away with almost anything. look at Johnny Manzel! he's 20 and a known drunk. he hasn't even been looked at for an under age! a crime is a crime. an addict is an addict regardless of their profession or fame. I understand that he was in pain but he should have been our on the long term injured list not on a hand full of narcotics a week. so sad.
@gravey94 Sorry Gravey, have to disagree with you there. 100%. First, it is naive to think that organizations are not fully aware (if not in detail then in concept) that this goes on. There have been just so many stories from the inside of typical sports organizations about the treatment of humans as commodities. Every sports team and league is dangerously close to being named complicit in huge class action suits for concussions. Watch.
That said....second, and even more important is the fact that EVEN if you want to believe that the organization "didn't know what was going on" (which again is simply not the case) it means far more than having simply "hired bad doctors". How do we regard parents who don't even complete the most rudimentary due diligence in screening, or overseeing the treatment of those they entrust with their children? And yes....this would fall under the most rudimentary of due diligence considering Boogaard's past.
The Rangers dropped the ball here (or never even had it) and are rightfully going to be held accountable, for they like most organizations, are driven almost solely by money and to wit all decisions they make about people are likely driven by that paradigm.
@cb1Easiest way to hold all accountable is to put Accountability into the contract between player and the organization and watch how fast it stops.....same thing with PEDs!
The thing that makes it disgusting is that it's true... No way Patrice Bergeron wasn't taking pain meds between periods playing with the injuries he played with... Hockey players bodies take so much punishment. Cb1 is right alot of players wouldn't be able to go on game night if it wasn't for pain medication...
@BrandonFranz they prescribed 60 hydros in 6 days for a "tooth injury"...when I got all 4 of my wisdom teeth out, I think I was prescribed 10 hydros
@jmacwilli @gravey94 I don't disagree that the Rangers dropped the ball. One thing I know for sure is that neither you or I know for sure what the Rangers did or didn't know at the time Boogaard was being prescribed these meds. Personally, I think it's very highly unlikely that any of the Rangers brass knew about a 4th line enforcer's drug prescriptions. It would be the equivalent of the CEO of a company knowing when an intern was taking a sick day. That being said, I do believe the Rangers have culpability here, I just don't think it was malicious disregard for Boogaard's condition by the entire organization or turning a blind eye while these docs prescribed pills to him. And it's really not a shocker that teams only care about the bottom line. I hate to break it to you, but most fans are the same. How many were worried about Boogaard's concussions more than they were worried he wasn't fighting a lot with the Rangers?
@jmacwilli @gravey94 It goes beyond the doctors and beyond the organization. The entire system is set up for things like this to happen. The players, the union, the doctors, the league and the owners all need to figure out what can be done to prevent this from happening again. This was not a fluke, accidental death.
@BrendyJohnson@BrandonFranzHe didnt have surgery, he had his teeth knocked out by a hockey player punching his face repeatedly. Also Boogaard was 270 lbs and had a history of chronic pain and narcotic use. To get the same relief from hydrocodone, someone is his situation needs way more medication than the average person.
@gravey94 @jmacwilli Yeah...I know. You're not breaking it to me. I get it. And I know I'm one of the few. Still, sadly I don't expect much from fans, or individuals for that matter. However, when we let organizations, or people who are in control of others well-being marginalize the welfare of others, then we are on a slippery slope to a place neither you, nor I want to be. And believe me these organizations ALL marginalize their players.
@gravey94 @jmacwilli I agree that we don't know what the Rangers or the league or the NHLPA did or didn't do. But I don't think your analogy of the CEO and the intern is apt. Maybe the Dolans didn't know, but Glen Sather sure as shit better know what is going on with his players. It's not like there are thousands of them, this is one of 23 or so guys, each of whom the team has invested millions of dollars into. Torts would always say "Ramer tells me if they can go or not, that's all I care about." It's a pretty ignorant statement, but the coach might be able to get away with it. The GM has a much larger responsibility to know what is going on with the health status of his players (employees).
@cb1 @jmacwilli @gravey94 Easiest way to hold all accountable is to put Accountability into the contract between player and the organization and watch how fast it stops.....same thing with PEDs
@jmacwilli true, i think we are finally starting to see that with the concussion issue, with the depression/pain killers etc not being talked about enough. Hopefully people can use this tragedy to make some changes.
@cb1 @jmacwilli @gravey94 Agreed, but we must recognize the lag between time of discovery and action. In our society even when the proper action for safety is known (smoking, chemicals, concussions, etc...) NO action will take place until the COST of not doing something finally outweighs the cost of doing something. It is inherent to capitalism with the only recourse being an educated and demanding population to force the issue as close to the point of discovery as possible.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION Various kinds of dot printers are known in the art. Early so-called "dot matrix" printers employed one or more pins driven forward and backward by a solenoid drive mechanism to transfer ink from a ribbon to the surface of a media as a series of dots or "pixels". This type of printer can be contrasted to laser printers, electrostatic printers, and the like, which form an entire two dimensional area as dots from a "toner" material which is then transferred to the surface of the media and fused to the surface by the application of heat. While mechanical dot matrix printers are still used in some applications, modern dot printers are more likely to employ a thermal inline printhead, a thermal printhead or an inkjet printhead. Typically, an inline thermal printhead includes a plurality of print positions arranged in a horizontal line across the entire width of the print area. Each print position has a heating element connected to wires. When power is applied to the wires, the heating element increases in temperature. At a certain temperature, the heating element causes a visible dot to appear on the media being printed when employing thermal direct techniques where the heat is applied to a heat-sensitive coating on the surface of the media, or, where ink is transferred from a thermally sensitive ribbon to form a dot on the surface of the media. The size and shape of the dot is a function of the shape of the heating element, temperature of the heating element and the length of time the element is applied to the medium or ribbon. As the heating elements retain heat from previous printing operations and adjacent elements, the quiescent temperature of the heating elements rise. When using a conventional thermal printer, the heating elements are selectively heated to form a line of dots which are a linear portion of the characters comprising the row of information to be printed. Once the line of dots is printed, the media advances so that another line of dots can be printed as the process is repeated. The characters in the row are simultaneously formed as a predetermined number of rows of dots are printed. A drive system comprising a stepper motor and a system of gears and rollers advances the media a predetermined distance along a paper path such that another row of dots can be printed. This process is repeated until the entire row of characters or "print line" is printed on the media. After the print line is printed, the paper is advanced so that another print line can be printed as the process is repeated. The power required to print a row of dots is a function of the number of print elements that are powered for a given row. The higher the number of print elements powered, the higher the current required from a given power supply. This is known in the art as dot utilization or the number of dots printed for a given row. As an example, the dot utilization of a Point-of-Sale (POS) printer printing normal text averages below thirty percent (30%). On the other hand, printing logos can result in dot utilizations up to one hundred percent (100%) or totally black printing across the media. The power required for the printing operation is also a function of the printer motor. Stepper motors are widely used in computer printers because they have accurate position control and are compatible with digital systems. Electrical pulses of suitable amplitude and pulse width are supplied to the stepper motor to advance the motor by a predetermined distance for each pulse. One advantage of stepper motors is that the motor position can be determined by counting the pulses applied to it. Stepper motors have a torque-speed characteristic wherein torque decreases as speed increases. Stepper motor acceleration and deceleration times have been undesirably long due in part to the nature of the available torque characteristic of the motor. In an attempt to counteract this problem, stepper motors are accelerated and decelerated in accordance with a predetermined velocity profile, or velocity variation as a function of time. The corresponding graph is known by those in the art as a "ramp" curve. The ramp curve for a particular motor can be stored in a computer as a series of numbers or "ramp table." Ramp tables are used to vary the stepper motor's speed. They usually involve the assumption that the motor velocity will follow a particular mathematical function, such as a straight line (constant acceleration) or a parabola (very low acceleration at peak speed). Ramp down curves can also be generated empirically. The procedures for generating ramp down curves and the routines for incorporating such curves into the printer's microcode are well known by those who practice the art. One such procedure is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,274,316, issued on Dec. 28, 1993 to Evans. Point of Sale (POS) computer terminals and other commercial applications typically use thermal printers for printing sales receipts and other documentation. Often printers used in these applications are attached to the POS terminal and the POS terminal supplies power to the thermal printer. Due to obsolescence and maintenance, it is often necessary to replace the thermal printer without replacing the entire POS terminal. As the technology has been able to offer better quality and increased flexibility, the power necessary to run newer printers has also increased. Unfortunately, the power supplies in most existing POS terminals were designed for older printers that do not have the relatively high power requirements of newer printers. It is possible to reduce the speed of the printer, and thereby, reduce the power required for printing due to a lower printing duty cycle. However, if the dot utilization is low, reducing the speed needlessly slows down the entire printing operation. What is needed, therefore, is a printer that can look ahead to determine the power requirements for a given block of information to be printed. If necessary, power requirements can be maintained at a given level as the dot utilization percentage increases or power requirements can be reduced for a given block of information to be printed. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The previously mentioned needs are fulfilled with the present invention. Accordingly, there is provided, in a printer having a printhead, drive system, a power supply with a set power level, and a print logic for scanning a block of information to be printed to determine the maximum dot utilization for the block. The speed of the printer is then adjusted based on a given dot utilization such that the power requirements of printing the block of information do not exceed the set power level. There is also provided a method for printing information at a given level, including the steps of examining a group of information to be printed, calculating the maximum dot utilization value for the group, selecting a print speed based on the maximum dot utilization value, printing information at the calculated speed, and repeating the foregoing steps until all of the information is printed. These and other features, and advantages, will be more clearly understood from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is important to note the drawings are not intended to represent the only form of the invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS For a more complete understanding of the present invention, and the advantages thereof, reference is now made to the following descriptions taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a thermal recording apparatus in which an embodiment of the present invention is applicable; FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a thermal printer according to an embodiment of the present invention; and FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing the control sequence and print logic for one embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The principles of the present invention and its advantages are best understood by referring to the illustrated embodiment depicted in FIGS. 1-3 of the drawings, in which like numbers designate like parts. In the following description, well-known elements are presented without detailed description in order not to obscure the present invention in unnecessary detail. For the most part, details unnecessary to obtain a complete understanding of the present invention have been omitted inasmuch as such details are within the skills of persons of ordinary skill in the relevant art. Details regarding control circuitry or mechanisms used to control the rotation of the various elements described herein are omitted, as such control circuits are within the skills of persons of ordinary skill in the relevant art. As discussed previously, by varying the print speed (lines printed per second), one can affect the power supply requirements for a given row of dots. A printer microcode algorithm can be developed to "look ahead" to the next row of dots to be printed to determine the dot utilization, then adjust the speed accordingly. For example, a printer might not exceed a given power supply if the print speed is 52 lines per second (lps) and the dot utilization is less than sixty-five percent (65%). As the dot utilization increases over 65%, the print speed is reduced to 35 lps. Finally, at 93% dot utilization, the print speed is further reduced to 26 lps. Printing at these reduced speeds requires less power, and thus, allows the use of older power supplies or power supplies with a power capacity that is below that required at maximum dot utilization and print speed. However, because the higher dot utilization occurs on an infrequent basis, the reduction in speed will have little impact on the overall printing time. In FIG. 1, an in-line thermal printhead 102 is mounted in such a manner that it can be lowered against a platen roller 104. Thermal printhead 102 consists of a horizontal linear array of numerous heating elements (not shown). The heat generating elements individually generate heat by power supplied by electric power supply 109 and are activated by heating or printing signals from a central processing unit ("CPU") 108. A thermally sensitive recording medium 106, such as recording paper, is supported on platen roller 104. Platen roller 104 is rotated counterclockwise in direction 110 to advance recording medium 106 in succession in a direction 112. A system of gears (not shown), powered by stepper motor 208, rotates platen roller 104. FIG. 2 shows a block diagram for a thermal printer related to one embodiment of the present invention. CPU 108 controls the printer in accordance with algorithms stored in a preprogrammable memory, such as flash memory or read-only memory ("ROM") 203. Data from the keyboard (not shown), another CPU, or another source is processed by CPU 108 and sent to the printer. The processed data is temporarily stored in random access memory ("RAM") 202. Then, in response to a printing command entered on a keyboard or another CPU, CPU 108 reads the text data from RAM 202 and executes a character pattern routine stored in ROM 203 to generate the text data. The character pattern contains predetermined row and column dot locations for each character or symbol. ROM 203 also contains a speed control routine to control the print speed. If flash memory is used in place of ROM 203, predefined messages and symbols can also be printed at the direction of a application program running on the host computer. As printing starts, CPU 108 continuously outputs each horizontal array of dots of the character patterns to thermal printhead 102. Thermal printhead 102 has dot heating elements so that it may selectively pass current through the dot heating elements corresponding to the horizontal array of data. CPU 108 coordinates the velocity of stepper motor 208 with the selective heating of the horizontal array of dot heating elements so that platen roller 104 moves a predetermined amount in relation to thermal printhead 102. Consequently, a new horizontal array of information can be printed on recording medium 106 (FIG. 1). The speed control routine operates according to the flow diagram shown in FIG. 3. In response to a printing command as a result of data stored in RAM 202, selected heating elements are powered in thermal printhead 102 to print a line of data or symbols. A line of data represents approximately 24 rows of dots or "dot rows". The speed of printing for the current row of dots is saved in RAM 202 (step 301). A variable in memory, FIRST_ROW, is set to 1, and a second variable in memory, LAST_ROW, is set to 24 (step 302) to represent the first 24 dot rows in the image buffer. The image buffer is that portion of RAM 202 used to store the information just before it is printed. The dot line utilization is calculated for the first 24 dot rows of the image buffer. This value is stored in variable DOT_UTIL_MAX (step 303). The routine then enters a continuous loop where the variables FIRST_ROW and LAST_ROW are incremented by one (step 304) each time the step is performed. The first step in the loop is a decision step to determine if the end of the image buffer has been reached (step 305). If not, the dot utilization is calculated and stored in variable DOT_UTIL_CURRENT for the current 24 rows being examined (i.e., the rows between LAST_ROW and FIRST_ROW) (step 306). The next decision step compares the current dot line utilization value in variable DOT_UTIL_CURRENT to the maximum dot utilization value in variable DOT_UTIL_MAX. If the current dot line utilization in DOT_UTIL_CURRENT is greater than the current value of the maximum utilization variable DOT_UTIL_MAX (step 307), DOT_UTIL_MAX is set to the value in DOT_UTIL_CURRENT (step 308). The procedure then returns to the beginning of the loop (step 304). In other words, the procedure scans the dot utilization value of each row before the entire group of rows are printed. When the end of the image buffer is reached (step 305), the new print speed for the next print line is computed based on the dot utilization value stored in variable DOT_UTIL_MAX (step 309). This value represents the maximum dot utilization required to print the next print line. The new print speed is compared to the current print speed (step 310). If the new speed is within a predetermined increment, no adjustments will be made to the actual print speed of the next line printed (step 312). If the new speed is outside of a predetermined increment, new ramp tables are loaded, along with a new motor pulse width, to calculate a new target speed (step 313). New speed instructions are then sent by CPU 108 to stepper motor 208 and the print heads. Programming such speed instructions is well known by those who practice the relevant art. A choice of several ramp tables is available for use in programming the speed instructions-from maximum speed to minimum speed. Different tables can accommodate power supplies of different capacities. For example, when using a power supply of low capacity, a ramp table reflecting a rapid reduction of printing speed as dot utilization increases should be used. On the other hand, when using a power supply of a relatively high capacity, a ramp table reflecting a slower reduction of printing speed should be used. However, which ramp table to use is user selectable. Therefore, printing performance may be optimized for the available power supplies. Operating variable speeds based on dot utilization allows for maximizing the print speed for a power supply of given capacity. The high dot utilization areas of printing occurs in a small percentage of the overall printed receipt, thus this reduction in printing speed has only a minor effect on the total printing time. Although the invention has been described with reference to specific embodiments, these descriptions are not meant to be construed in a limiting sense. Various modifications of the disclosed embodiments, as well as alternative embodiments of the invention will become apparent to persons skilled in the art upon reference to the description of the invention. It is therefore, contemplated that the claims will cover any such modifications or embodiments that fall within the true scope of the invention. * * * * * |

Unlike anything else available, the beamforming capability delivered with the rV100i is simpler and more relevant to Pre-WiMAX current WiMAX applications, allowing the beamforming engine to be applied at the Intermediate Frequency (IF), so that unlike most alternative solutions - the system doesn't have to be integrated into the base station. The result is an increased efficiency and reliability at a much lower cost than adding redundant network nodes for the network operator. ReVerb's network management system (NMS See NetWare Management System. ) software provides a compelling interface for the user. Running on a standard PC the rV100i's interface is fully web-enabled and allows users to graphically set the parameters of their rV100i signal processor and can be customized for the specific network tower location to include Google Maps[TM] visual depictions to show beam locations and patterns. Since network intelligence drives the adaptive beamforming parameters, the network interface displays the effective coverage, shape and bandwidth of each beam. The system controls both the uplink and downlink signal pattern to accommodate frequency selection, spatial location and beam shape. This rich user control with visual awareness combined with real-time diagnostics, ensures the system will perform to the highest capability. For a view of the NMS interface see https://www.virtualpressoffice.com/media/presskit/detail.jsp?show Id=1152106482582&companyId=1190001696046 (Due to its length, this URL URL in full Uniform Resource Locator Address of a resource on the Internet.

Remove the extra space if one exists.) The adaptive antenna processor within the rV100i uses ReVerb's patented Digital IF beam-forming technology to provide both uplink and downlink signal shaping capability. The product currently interfaces to analog IF coaxial systems and the company will also introduce support for additional radio head interfaces as they evolve, such as OBSAI RP-03. ReVerb has collaborated extensively with systems integrators and lead customer candidates, and has slated rV100i customer trials and controlled introduction for the first quarter of next year. About ReVerb Networks ReVerb Networks is an industry pioneer and leader in smart antenna technology. The company's patented beam-forming software is revolutionary in bringing new capabilities to wireless networks, as both an overlay optimization engine and as a set of integrated product solutions.

Le Marche has rolling hills, tall sycamores, olive groves and ancient hilltop villages Sounds like Tuscany? Yes, but Le Marche has more: dramatic mountain scenery, steep roads, and the azure waters of the Adriatic Ocean. There are no huge ad boards blocking the vista of an ancient castle, no large, loud tour groups occupying an entire piazza, hardly any tour busses. And the few tourists I bumped into seemed to be quiet types. Le Marche is a bit like travelling back in time to the Italy I remember visiting as a kid. It is one of the country's lesser known regions, and part of me would like it to remain that way. But… can't be selfish.
La Tavola Marche
Between the beaches of the Adriatic and the Apennine Mountains, near the ancient village of Piobbico, you'll find La Tavola Marche, an organic agriturismo and cooking school, run by Ashley and Jason Bartner.
After spending their honeymoon exploring the Italian countryside, Ashley and Jason fell in love with the region. They decided a holiday wasn't enough, so four years ago they packed up everything and moved to Le Marche. Their passion for the slow life is apparent.
Ashley and Jason Bartner, hosts extraordinaires
A classically trained chef from New York's French Culinary Institute, Jason has worked at top notch restaurants in New York and San Francisco. Ashley, a vivacious Seattleite, has years of experience in the hospitality industry. So what could be more natural than setting up a country inn and cooking school?
The two young Americans are warm, welcoming hosts and you're free to participate in the day-to-day work on the farm: picking vegetables, feeding the hens, or come along to the local meat and cheese market. You can learn to cook traditional peasant food with seasonal products fresh from the garden. You can do a tour of nearby wineries with Marco's Way, perhaps one specializing in Lacrima de Morro d'Alba, a grape indigenous to Le Marche. You can ride horses or hike the countryside. Or – you can lounge by the mineral water pool doing absolutely nothing at all. Be warned – once you've settled in, shaken off the stress of city life and adjusted to slow country living, you may never want to leave.
La Tavola at dawn
At La Tavola Marche, you'll sleep in a large, beautiful 300-year-old stone house, locally known as Ca' Camone. The five rooms and apartments are all individually decorated and named for the fruit trees surrounding the property. I stayed in Mela (apple), an airy two-bedroom/two-bathroom apartment with very high wood-beamed ceilings and tile floors. The bedrooms are separated by a large, comfortable living room, complete with an open kitchen and a cozy fire place, perfect for a group of friends or a family.
Breakfast in Italy is mostly a quick affair, usually coffee and a pastry. At La Tavola Marche you get fresh seasonal fruits and berries, yogurt, honey, sweet croissants, blood orange juice and good strong coffee; enough to keep you going for hours of exploring.
With one day's notice, Jason will whip up a five-course feast for dinner. Or perhaps you might like to join other guests and neighbors for the weekly pizza night around a long table in the stone courtyard, nibbling and chatting long into the warm Italian night.

Both clinical nurse specialists and nurse practitioners fall under the classification of advanced practice nursing. This means their standards are ranked as some of the highest in the nursing field. They both play important roles in the care of patients and make substantial contributions to care in clinical medical settings. While both are acknowledged as leaders in nursing credentialing and care, there are some slight differences.EducationAlthough both positions require a Master's of Science in Nursing, a nurse practitioner likely completes a post-master's certificate program to be able to study in multiple areas of medicine. This program requires passing a national certification program through the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners and the American Nurses Credentialing Center. A clinical nurse specialist focuses on a specific field of study such as perinatal nursing, infectious disease nursing or cardiovascular nursing. Clinical nurse specialists attend almost the same amount of schooling as nurse practitioners, but the education focuses more on case management, educational teaching skills and inter-dependencies involving clinical practice.SalaryThe salary varies greatly for both positions, depending on the location and setting. Metropolitan hospitals and clinics pay far more than rural areas and most private practices. The starting salary for a nurse practitioner, according to salary.com, is $75,838. This is the average starting salary for someone who has just completed college and training. For the clinical nurse specialist, the starting salary is $74,545. The clinical nurse specialist and the nurse practitioner are very competitive with their annual starting wages.Job DutiesNurse practitioners work under the indirect supervision of physicians and use their expertise to consult on patient care. They may not make an actual patient diagnosis although they can write prescriptions. Some nurse practitioners also work independently in private practice, seeing patients and treating them for ailments. The clinical nurse specialist is often in charge of a department of nursing, either at a private practice location or in a hospital setting. The clinical nurse specialist has the education and expertise to lead the nursing staff in education and improving the patient care process. Like the nurse practitioner, the clinical nurse specialist may also work in private practice by providing education and nursing care to patients. The difference is that they cannot treat the patient without the presence of a physician, and they cannot write prescriptions.Practice SettingsThere are different practice settings in which both nurses may work. One of the most popular is in a private practice physician's setting. Here, the nurse practitioner takes over patient care duties in place of the medical doctor for certain patients. Those who need routine checkups or medication refills may often be seen by the nurse practitioner rather than the doctor. The clinical nurse specialist may be in charge of case managing an entire office. This could include training and hiring new nurses and office staff. They may also do research and offer consultations to patients who have medical questions regarding their care. Hospital settings are similar except each nurse may work under or with several physicians or be in charge of several nurses and staff members. Clinics, home care and hospice inpatient units are also popular practice settings for both types of nurses.MedicationsMedicine is highly regulated by state, local and nationwide government. The nurse practitioner receives extensive education in the field of clinical nursing care. On top of that, they also receive a strong education in medicine and prescription drugs. This prepares them for knowing correct dosages, drug combinations and the purpose and side effects of medications. Clinical nurse specialists are highly trained in clinical patient care and management, but they do not attend schooling to learn how to prescribe medication. They do, however, understand the basic fundamentals of drugs, dosages and types, and how to communicate with the physician for medication orders regarding patient care.References:Nurse Practitioner Salary RangeClinical Nurse Specialist Salary RangeNurse Practitioner Career InformationClinical Nurse Specialist Career Information

This "rental charge" pi$$ed me off to no end and put me over the edge. I finally ripped the boxes out and called criminalcast to take the tv package off my service. Then drove to the service center and gave them back to the cs rep.I told her that this is extortion and and away to gouge the customer to line the pockets of executives by raising an extra $550 million.EF U CRIMINALCAST.
This "rental charge" pi$$ed me off to no end and put me over the edge.
I just received a notice with my bill that effective March 1, Comcast will start charging for the first two DTAs at $1.99 per month for each. For the current DTA I feel it is overpriced but for the new HD DTAs which should soon be offered it could be a good deal since I can replace two of my set top boxes.
Sign the petition:»www.ipetitions.com/petition/comc···rcharge/If you have privacy concerns, just sign with your initials and an anonymous email address. Comment if you wish. We need NUMBERS to make this petition have any importance. Sign it and email the petition link to your contacts and tell them to email it to all of their contacts.$5 per month is not a lot of money, but, realize that Comcast is probably charging each of its 20 million plus customers. Do the math and that is over a BILLION dollars a year being sucked out of our pockets !! Enough is enough!!! You should be mad as heck at the big corporation aided by the big government ramming this down our throats. If you are not, then we deserve what we get.

respringing works as in it will disappear? Don't worry if it it's temporary. Sometimes it happens to me too. Do you have winterboard btw?
Common problem. It is something to do with the icon folder becoming corrupted when you install a new tweak. Respring clears it.

Before tonight's game, the Dodgers activated Carlos Monasterios from the disabled list, a move which was expected. However, the corresponding move was not expected: Ronald Belisario was placed on the restricted list for "personal reasons." This is not the first time on the restricted list for Belisario, who began the season there after showing up to camp 35 days late.
On the field, the Dodgers look to win their series with the Marlins with what will likely be their toughest test, facing Josh Johnson, he of the league-leading 1.82 ERA. They will counter Johnson with Hiroki Kuroda, who is coming off the shortest outing of his major league career.
Sure, he gave up six runs while getting five outs Friday in Arizona, but Kuroda was likely a victim of the universe keeping things in order. You see, this is Kuroda's third season as a Dodger, and his numbers seem to always end up around the same:
Hiroki Kuroda: Mr. Consistency | |||
Year | ERA | FIP | x-FIP |
2008 | 3.73 | 3.59 | 3.93 |
2009 | 3.76 | 3.58 | 3.66 |
2010 | 3.78 | 3.56 | 3.68 |
Career | 3.75 | 3.58 | 3.79 |
Don't be surprised when Kuroda gives up three runs in 7 1/3 innings tonight.
- Up next for Rafael Furcal in the Dodger run-scoring streak pantheon is Zack Wheat, who scored a run in 13 straight games in 1925. Wheat hit .423 with 17 runs scored in his 13 games. Furcal's streak is 12 games, and he is hitting .462 with 17 runs in his streak.
- The Dodgers got younger in their Triple A outfield depth department, releasing 35-year old Timo Perez and signing 27-year old Australian Trent Oeltjen to a minor league deal. Oeltjen made his major league debut with Arizona last season, hitting home runs in three of his first four games, but fell back to reality with a nine-for-50 slump thereafter.

American fans are gearing up for big-serving rookie sensation John Isner against world No. 1 Roger Federer on Saturday at the US Open. Turns out a good number of players are also looking forward to seeing how the almost-untouchable Isner serve stacks up against the almost-untouchable all-around game of the Swiss.
World No. 3 Novak Djokovic added his assessment to the match-up:
"Obviously looking, John's last couple months have been great for him. He won two matches here. Crowd supports him. He likes that energy and entertainment. I think he doesn't have anything to lose. So it's going to be interesting anyhow. I mean, he's playing against the best player on the world, defending champion. It will be interesting to see, but it could go either way."

Fellow plumber/showroom sale person:
Do all toilet drain, horn are exatly the same with the johnny bolts locations all universal?
I beleive it approx 7" apart from each other? Correct?
I'm looking for a spacers extender to apply on a 7"ring and hopefully the othr holes on that ring are in the same spot.
Do anyone know of a spacer extender that have the long slots on it and not just those other holes. I need one that will work with the one I hae.
The toilet bolt placement is the same, but the added holes to fasten it down will be wherever the manufacturer wants to put them, and therefore they will probably not be lined up with the anchor holes on what you have now.

Military: Navy town life appreciated
Thank God I live in a Navy town. Today I heard the sound of freedom as the planes flew overhead.
Thank God I live in a Navy town. When I went to town, I saw them all ... young and old ... some retired military ... men and women of the Army, Navy, Marines and the Air Force. They shopped in our stores, worshipped in our churches, and were involved in all facets of city government.
Thank God I live in a Navy town. I am grateful to the military, past and present, for my freedom to shop, worship and be involved as I choose. Your presence in this town is admired and appreciated.
This town is a great collection of people ... Dutch, Irish, Italian, Scandinavian, German and Navy. Let us not forget our heritage ... ethnic and military.

Welcome to our shiny new website. A bit of a working progress so bear with us until we can get all info updated fully but since we had such an interest in what we were up to, we thought it would be a good idea to put the basic site up now for all the nosey ones.
The biggest news is that we are set to release our first single by the amazing, Kill The Waves on the 2nd of April. The double A side will also feature a very special remix…..ooooooo…..excited noises……indeed. A tuneful casserole filled with chunky hunks of musical deliciousness. Nom nom nom. To quote Oliver Twist "Please sir, I want some more!" CAN'T. GET. ENOUGH.
The second single due out on April 23rd is from the ever-mysterious Edinburgh School for the Deaf formerly deserters deserve death. Made for the sole purpose of cheering up your bored ipods. Yawn goes your ipod. Yawn yawn yawn…and then BANG….a super sexy fuel injection, a big ESFTD punch in the face.
We will also be pitching onto the social media bandwagon. Howdy. Again, these sites are a bit of a working progress but if you like, follow, blog, tweet, blah blah blah, you'll get to be the first and be able to say things like "oh yeah strange fish, I like was totally one of the first people to like their facebook and follow them on twitter" and we all know how much joy and smugness comes from being 'one of the first'. Plus as an extra special thank you, the first 500 people to like, follow or join our mailing lists will be added to our SPECIAL FRIENDS list. Don't panic, there is nothing untoward or seedy about this list. We wont be luring you into our transit van to see our puppies. We will give you free tracks, cheap entry to special events we will be hosting and other lovely things.

LAKE FOREST, California (CNN) - Barack Obama got in a good dig on Rick Warren. The question was about definition of "rich" - Obama basically said somebody who sells 25 million books - like Warren has. The crowd loved it; this guy has a mega-church, as well as a mega-fortune. But Warren didn't seem to take offense
Obama gave specifics about taxes on this question and was honest that someone has to pay taxes. McCain gave his typical no taxes answer, which is not realistic.

Byron York, you are not right! You compare strategies used by Dems with the content of Romney's campaign. The appeal of Obama was forced on the people with candy, while Romney's content did not get through because of the lack of civic education that half a century of dems' policies brought upon them. The Dems sliced up the market, fed people with entitlements. Romney wanted to explain that is need to revive the American creed. What's that American creed, people asked, we cannot eat that! So they pulled the liver to fill stomachs not brains. Stomach can be filled with greens, the brain needs real fat and real sugar to survive.

I'm quite far along, and I know I can go into labor anytime now. I'm seriously afraid of pushing the baby out. During my cervix test, it was extremely painful. I touch down there out of curiousity careful, and notice the entrance is very extremely sore when touched, very tight and tiny, and is probably why it hurt so much.
Could this possibly just mean I'm just not dialated? Or something else? The thought that it being so tight, sore, tiny, and can not even fit a single finger at all made me think maybe I'll end up tearing and it'll be a very painful birth?
Can anyone tell me their thoughts, experiences, advice or such? Anything would be much appreciated, I'm usual the strong type. But this does frighten me, and I only have friends who haven't gone through this going to be besides me. So having no one only increases the fear of pain being way more than I can handle.

Really good brunch in or near center city - non-hotel
We just love the brunch at Four Seasons and Lacroix - for ultra special occassion. We are going out to brunch with another couple and looking to do something else though- possible non-buffet. Any favorites with really good food and classy ambience? Anything that has some more unique or special dishes?
re: Hendi
I would second Supper. I just went there yesterday for brunch for the first time for Mother's Day (we have been several times for dinner, but never for brunch). It was incredibly good. Relaxed, great food and wine. I don't even like eggs but their version of eggs benedict was out of this world. Great bloody marys, too.
Haven't been there yet but I have heard good things. http://www.parc-restaurant.com/menupd...
re: joluvscards
Parc would be a good choice for what you're looking for. I went there recently for breakfast and although I actually wanted to hate it (not a huge Stephen Starr fan), I enjoyed it. Sitting outside in nice weather would be ideal but it was also very nice inside, with good food and service.
Also, I've never been for brunch, but Cochon, a French BYO in Queen Village, also offers brunch on the weekends.
re: sophilly
I had brunch at Parc a few months ago with some friends and it was very good. One of the better brunches I have had in Philly. The bread was very fresh and all of our food and cocktails were delcious. One of the few restaurants that can actually make a good omelet. I would definitely recommend it. Service was also good. I would also recommend Tinto. It is a $25 prix fixe, but you get three courses with excellent choices.
re: Bigley9
I used to also enjoy Beau Monde (and their bloody mary's), but after hearing reports from friends, and actually walking by saturday night (on our way to S&H Kebab) and looking at their menu outside, their prices seem to have drastically increased. I used to be able to get the roquefort and bacon mushroom crepe for like $13, but i saw that the price is now $20.
sadly, i think i have to cross this off my list of favorite brunch places.
I would have to say that my favorite places to have brunch are Continental Mid-town and Jones. Yes, they can get very noisy, but I think that they have just the right amount of mixture between familiar and unusual dishes and a wonderful environment to eat and have fun with my friends/family.

Karolinska Development AB Establishes New Private Holding Company; Syndicate Led by Rosetta Capital Limited Acquires Stake in New Subsidiary
Karolinska Development AB announced that a syndicate led by the life science investor Rosetta Capital Limited (Rosetta) is to acquire a minority share in Karolinska Development's holdings in 13 of its 25 portfolio companies for SEK 220 million. For the purpose of the transaction, Karolinska Development will transfer 13 of its portfolio company holdings to a new private holding company (KDev Investments AB). The KDev Investments portfolio will include both early and clinical stage pharmaceutical assets as well as some technology assets. Rosetta will acquire 7.33% of the common shares in KDev Investments AB for SEK 110 million and preference shares in KDev Investments AB for a further SEK 110 million. The terms of the preference shares provide for gradually reducing returns for Rosetta, limiting Rosetta's upside in return for partial protection of its downside. The consideration to be paid by Rosetta implies a total value of the KDev Investments portfolio of approximately SEK 1,500 million, about two times Karolinska Development's investment in the same portfolio and a 23% premium to the reported fair value. After the transaction, Karolinska Development's cash and short-term investments will be approximately SEK 500 million.
