My husband started taking this and the Grape Seed Extract. Now he doesn't have to take his BP pills pescribed to him. His BP is staying stable and he isn't having panic attacks from the pharmaceutical pills anymore since he stopped taking those! I know it is the combo of the 2 that is stabilizing him!

Radio Helsinki

Police investigating movements of drunk driver who killed girl in Helsinki
Minister of Transport says that the use of ignition interlock devices could be expanded on a fast-track schedule
print this
On Wednesday, the Helsinki Police Department launched a preliminary investigation into the death of the 11-year-girl who was run over and killed by a drunk driver in Helsinki's district of Herttoniemi on Tuesday evening.
The 25-year-old man fled the scene of the accident and was later found at his workplace in the industrial area of Herttoniemi.
The heavily intoxicated driver had a valid driving licence and at least two previous convictions for drunk driving. However, his licence was not currently revoked, since some time had passed since the earlier cases.
The hit-and-run occurred
on Viikintie in Herttoniemi, where the speed limit is 50 kilometres per hour between Siilitie and Viilaritie, rising to 60 km/h towards Viikki, as the road runs through open fields.
At the moment, there are no traffic lights in the open area, which is why a fair number of drivers tend to speed on that road section.
The hit-and-run incident that occurred on Tuesday was exceptional in Finnish circumstances, as usually drunk drivers kill either themselves or their passengers, says
Anna-Liisa Tarvainen
, Managing Director of the Central Organisation for Traffic Safety in Finland (Liikenneturva).
In 2010, just four completely innocent victims died at the hands of a drunken driver, and in 2009 the figure was six.
Tuesday's incident is being investigated as aggravated negligent manslaughter, aggravated endangering of traffic safety, and as aggravated drunk driving.
Investigators are seeking information
on the movements of the car in question between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. in the Viikki and Herttoniemi areas. The car is a light-coloured Mazda 626 saloon, first registered in 1997.
The police are asking anyone who can give information about the incident to call them during office hours on 071 877 4435.
A total of around 300 people die
in traffic accidents in Finland every year, while at the same time, more than 9,000 are injured. One-fifth of these fatalities have been caused by drunk drivers, which is equal to about 60 to 70 people annually.
An ignition interlock device or breath alcohol ignition interlock device (IID and BAIID), installed to a motor vehicle's dashboard, would go some way towards preventing intoxicated persons from driving.
One problem is that in the most grievous cases - very often repeat-offenders with a long list of convictions - the driver may not be in his or her own car (indeed the vehicle may even be stolen), and may not have a valid licence to drive. Hence the IIDs would in practice need to be installed in all vehicles to achieve completely watertight protection.
In an interview with
the television channel
news programme
Nelosen Uutiset
on Wednesday, Minister of Transport
Merja Kyllönen
(Left Alliance) said that the hit-and-run in Herttoniemi could lead to the expansion of the use of ignition interlock devices, as the increasing number of drunk driving cases sends a clear message to decision-makers.
The use of these devices as part of DUI sanctions is currently rather rare in Finland, but the Ministry of Transport and Communications has set up two working groups tasked with looking into recommendations to expand the use of IIDs in the country.
One of the groups
has been examining whether or not an IID should always be offered as an alternative to a driving ban already to first-time offenders. The working group is to hand over its report to the Minister of Transport within the next few weeks.
Kyllönen said to
that in practice, an amendment to legislation could be brought to the decision table on a fast-track schedule.
Currently, an ignition interlock device
is being used only by about 760 persons who have been convicted of drunk driving. On an annual basis, about 22,000 persons are found guilty of drunken driving.
The other working group
set by the Ministry is considering the introduction of an IID and its potential impacts on duties which require professional competence, including those of bus and taxi drivers.
The amendment would apply to about 80,000 to 100,000 professional drivers, who are required to demonstrate a competent driving standard, says Senior Adviser
Kimmo Kiiski
from the Ministry of Transport and Communications.
Last August, Minister Kyllönen demanded that IIDs should be exempt from taxes.
In addition, she suggested that the legal limit for DUI should be dropped from 0.5 per mille to 0.2 per mille.
The matter has made no progress, as Minister of Justice
Anna-Maja Henriksson
(Swedish People's Party) has not taken it further.
The use of an IID has been mandatory in all school and daycare transportations since August 2011.

If the balls don't bounce our way tonight there's a decent chance Ernie will entertain the idea of trading the lottery pick for some help NOW. Nene was a NOW move.
Another reason would be the overall youth of the current roster. As Ted points out
We currently have under contract seven players that are in the first or second year of their contracts and were first round picks. Wall, Booker, Seraphin and Crawford just finished their second years, and Vesely, Singleton, and Mack (a second round pick) just finished their rookie seasons. We have a lottery pick – and a high second round pick this coming draft. That would mean we could have nine players on the roster all drafted by us or received by us via trade as new ownership.
While many took that as Ted resetting expectations based on youth, I took it as a statement that could be used to justify another NOW move. So who would be worth our lottery pick (2-5)? I am thinking in terms of shooting guards and small forwards.If you can't draft a core piece, trade for one. Not included is Nicolas Batum since he is a restricted free agent.
James Harden: Harden is one of the most efficient, well-rounded players at his position. Next year he is extension eligible. That creates problems for the Thunder since Ibaka is also eligible and they have already essentially maxed out Durant and Westbrook. Perkins is on the payroll well into the future but I could see him being a amnesty option if it meant keeping these other 2. In addition to our pick I'd include Crawford (to help replace Harden's bench scoring inexpensively) and take back even more salary in exchange for Harden and their pick at #28.
Loul Deng: 27 year old SF with excellent defensive talents and a better offensive game than he's given credit for. I also think that could go up a bit playing in a faster paced environment. Owed 27 million over the next 2 years.
Andre Igoudala: 28 year old wing. Owed 30.6 million over the next 2 seasons. Had a great year shooting from distance. Miscast as a playmaker in Philly. Obvious defensive strengths combined with his ability to get out on the break make him an interesting fit next to JW.
Rudy Gay: 26 year old SF owed 53.7 million over the next 3 seasons. Good for 19 and 5 most nights with occasional outbursts into the high 20's. Has become a better on-ball defender since his time with USA basketball.
Danny Granger: 29 year old making 27 million over the next 2 seasons. Not nearly as good defensively as Deng or Igoudala. Not as young as Gay. Another 19/5 guy shooting 38% from 3. Doubt Indy wants to move him. Don't see him as worthy of this pick either but he's in that next tier of 3's.
Who makes your list of players to target should we decide not to use our lottery pick?

AB: Where do you usually include your 'Inciting Incident' in
your scripts?
DD: The inciting incident or what Michael Arndt, the writer of Little Miss Sunshine and Toy Story 3, calls 'the bolt from the blue' happens at about page 10. Ideally, it somehow changes the status quo for the hero. It shakes things up.
AB: In the three Act Structure script, where do you usually
put Plot Point #1 and what is its purpose?
DD: I put Plot Point #1 at page 25, give or take, and have my own, admittedly rather wordy, but I think quite useful definition of it: Plot Point #1 is the ACTION the main character takes to try to solve what he perceives his problem to be, which then results in unexpected consequences.
By the way, some people consider the Inciting Incident, which happens at about page 10, to be "Plot Point #1"; but, this is just semantics. I call the plot point that happens on page 10 or so the Inciting Incident, and use the phrase "Plot Point #1" to describe what happens at the end of the first act. Regardless, these are both critical elements, and intertwined. The "problem" that the main character seeks to solve is by taking action at the first plot point, which is usually an outgrowth of the Inciting Incident.
Here's an example to illustrate those two points:
In Toy Story, the main character is Woody and the inciting incident is the arrival of Buzz Lightyear. Buzz is almost literally a 'bolt from the blue' and represents a significant change in the status quo for our hero. His arrival creates a problem for Woody who has, heretofore, always been the leader and favorite. But Buzz is stealing his thunder and Woody grows increasingly jealous, so Woody decides to 'get rid' of him. Woody's intention is simply to knock Buzz behind Andy's desk, but things go awry and Buzz is accidentally knocked out the window and into the evil neighbor kid's yard, setting the stage for all sorts of further predicaments and action in Act II. So, Inciting Incident: The arrival of Buzz. Plot Point #1: the ACTION Woody takes to try to get rid of him, which results in unexpected consequences.
Just a few more examples of Plot Point 1 to help illustrate my point: In Tootsie, Dustin Hoffman puts on the dress. In Thelma & Louise, Louise shoots the rapist. In The King's Speech, Colin Firth's King George VI & his wife hire Geoffrey Rush, the speech therapist. You get the idea. It's usually pretty drastic action, taken to solve a specific problem, which then has all sorts of unanticipated consequences and side effects in Act II.
AB: What is the 'Murphy's Law' Act?
DD: I call Act II the 'Murphy's Law' Act. Whatever can go wrong, will and usually at the worst possible time. You know, the monster's coming and the car won't start. Keep the obstacles and threats coming, pile them on, and let your lead create a way out of it. ("If I can't find a way, I'll make one.")
AB: Do you have any tips for keeping your story moving in Act II?
DD: Act II can be a slog. I think there are two things which are helpful in dealing with this challenge. First, the midpoint, which as plot points go is probably the most nebulous. There are lots of different definitions for this out there, but the one I like best is that something is different after this point; there's no going back. As Thelma in Thelma & Louise says, "something's crossed over in me".
The thing to remember about Act II is it's about twists and turns, hills and valleys, and the lead's encountering and figuring out ways to overcome unanticipated obstacles. And generally, the more obstacles a character faces on the road to achieving their goal, the more invested we become. If it's all just easy, a cakewalk, well, then who really cares? Where's the story in that? Action movies do this in very obvious, big, and loud ways. But all stories benefit from, dare I say, require it.
A great example of these principles in action in a more "quiet" movie is Sideways. There's hope for Miles, there's no hope, there's promise, and it's dashed. Up and down, up and down. I've recently realized that, from a certain angle, the reason we go to movies is to watch people struggle and, more importantly, to see them overcome their challenges and in the process somehow transcend themselves. So, Act II should be filled with moments of triumph and moments of despair, the greatest of which is Plot Point #2, at which point all should look lost and leads to Act III.
AB: What can you tell us about the 'Or Else' Act?
DD: I call Act III the "Or Else..." act. What's the 'or else' for your main character if they don't succeed at whatever it is they're after? Another way of putting this is - what's at stake? A clue to the answer lies in the fact that I believe Act III should come down to either a literal or figurative matter of life or death. So, in what way will your lead's life be over-- at least in their eyes-- if they don't manage to achieve their goal? What exactly is the 'or else'? What's to become of them? Why must they succeed or die trying?
AB: Do you try to incorporate symbolism into your scripts?
DD: No, it's not something I set out to consciously do ahead of time, maybe because I think it might wind up too precious. But if it happens organically, if something occurs along the way, then that's great.
AB: Any secrets for writing dialogue?
DD: It's helpful to have a sense of rhythm and I think to a certain extent you either have an ear for it or you don't. But you can certainly improve and train your ear. Again, I recommend reading work that is similar in tone to what it is you're trying to create, particularly if it's comedic. Get those rhythms in your head and they will bleed into your own work. Another suggestion is to allow yourself to forget trying to be clever, trying to be profound, etc. Instead, simply ask yourself, under the given circumstances-- and ideally the circumstances you've set up are inherently somewhat interesting-- what would someone actually say?
AB: Do you have any helpful editing techniques?
DD: I love editing. It's one of my favorite parts of the writing process. If I can make something better and stronger by simply cutting out what's extraneous, by eliminating the chaff, I'm a happy camper. In order to be able to do this most effectively, sometimes it's helpful to take a break from your work and/or to get fresh eyes on it.
Regarding editing the script as a whole, remember that, ideally, you want your scenes to build a cause & effect chain, one pushing into the next. The more you can do this, the better the flow and the stronger the forward momentum will feel.
As for editing within a scene itself, I tell my students it's like a party where you want to make a cool impression, "Arrive fashionably late and leave early". Get into the scene at the last possible moment, do what you need to do, and then get out at the earliest opportunity, unless you have a very good reason for sticking around. Don't wear out your welcome.
AB: Who are some of your favorite heroines or strong female lead characters in past films and what about those characters do you feel made them strong, likable, and memorable?
DD: Thelma & Louise -- there is something still so liberating, real, and potent about that movie. Thelma's line, after she robs the liquor store and jumps back in the car, "I think I've got a knack for this shit." is probably one of my all time favorite lines of dialogue. Erin Brockovich; Sigourney Weaver in Aliens; All the women in Enchanted April; Audrey Hepburn in Roman Holiday; Angelina Jolie in Mr. & Mrs. Smith; Jamie Leigh Curtis in True Lies. I love that these women are willing to really FIGHT for what they want. And of course, Scarlett, in Gone with the Wind; for all her faults, she is the personification of Winston Churchill's dictum, "Never, ever give up".
AB: Can you share any current or future projects you're working on that we can look forward to?
DD: I'm currently working on a book on writing, a screenplay which is set at Christmastime, and plan to offer an online course soon. Please check my website for updates at www.dianedrake.com .

Julie Walke | March 27, 2013 4:28 PM
Diane, thank you for your valuable insight. You have a great tone that ressonates with writers and I can see why you have been successful. The piece of advice that I most loved, is the editing suggestion of, "Arrive fashionably late and leave early" so many times people leave their scenes with sloppy entrances and exits. Finally, I completely love your list of heroines.
James McCarthy | March 27, 2013 2:14 PM
Terrific stuff here. Thank you.
Diane Drake | March 24, 2013 10:26 AM
Just wanted to say thanks, ladies, for your kind words. I'm really pleased to hear you enjoyed the piece. And thanks again to Ann for contacting me and the great questions.

As a professional screenwriter who happens to be female, I found this article so refreshing because at no point did it veer into the usual self-defeating nonsense you usually see when feminist-oriented sites interview "women screenwriters." (I put that in quotes because I hate the term -- it implies there are "regular screenwriters" and "other screenwriters.") So often I see us ghettoized by those who claim that women are best at "small, relationship movies" whereas men write "big movies." I especially cringe whenever I hear women brag that they don't write those big summer "boys' movies" -- in other words, popular, highly successful movies. I cringe because they're feeding Hollywood's biases with such statements.
There is this outdated notion in Hollywood that male screenwriters (specifically, white male screenwriters) can write ANY kind of movie, whereas if you want a little niche movie about relationships or a romantic comedy it's okay to hire a woman, and if you want a movie about African-American characters it's okay to hire an African American, etc. This makes it REALLY hard for those of us who WANT to write the next tentpole blockbuster summer action/comedy. Most of my calling card scripts are thrillers and action/comedies; it was a big action spec that initially got me repped by a big agency and two different "hot" managers, but every time I take a meeting it's the same story -- the only OWA anyone wants to talk about are very clearly niche "relationship" movies, even when I pitch big actioners or talk about my favorite comic books. And my buddy action-comedy spec has led only to jobs writing romantic comedies and family comedies...so my resume now further pigeonholes me in that area.
You look at the BlackList every year and the few women included on it are almost exclusively there for romantic comedies with "edgy" titles, even though I know many women who are writing superb thrillers and political dramas and such. I ask them what's up, and they all tell me a similar story: their manager told them they should try to write a raunchy rom-com, because that's their best bet to land a spot on the BlackList. Funny, my manager told me the same thing. Hmm.
My experience seems to match that of other "female screenwriters" I know, whereas my "male screenwriter" friends have very different experiences in terms of pitching, advice from reps, etc. Is it just a coincidence? Am I just being paranoid? And if not, how do we get out of this ghetto?

Awesome advice on screenwriting! And an enlightening inspiring and interesting interview.

Thank you, Diane...and Ann. I'm struggling the writer's struggle, trying to get several projects moving at the same time. "Hearing" you say all the right things is a great warm-up. Thank you for being right on. Your comment about playing the right music in the background hit a very special chord...I remember writing an hour special for Motown in a weekend -- playing my Chicago album in the background over and over and over...It did work. Among other things, it kept me awake. Thanks again. I will be following both of your websites. Good luck.

If you're a part of an organization accredited by the Joint Commission, you will be able to self-register for easy access to the Center for Transforming Healthcare's Targeted Solutions Tool™ (TST) this fall.
Previously, staff could use the TST only if they were approved by their health care organization's accreditation security administrator.

Highlights of the new TST access process include:
- Staff at accredited organizations can register and gain access to the TST.
- New TST users have access to their own, private TST workspace.
- New users can start their own improvement project and designate a project lead.
- Project leads can invite others to join their projects.
- Health care organization accreditation security administrators will be notified weekly of new TST users at their organizations.
- Health care organization accreditation security administrators retain the ability to add or remove TST access for all users.
The Joint Commission will provide additional information about the TST self-registration process this fall. Questions can be emailed to John T. Cullinan of the Joint Commission.
Joint Commission to revise imaging requirements
Physicians can provide comments to the Joint Commission on its proposed revisions to the diagnostic imaging services requirements for hospital, critical access hospital and ambulatory care accreditation programs.
The revisions, which focus on CT, MRI, NM and PET diagnostic services, are intended to address what the Joint Commission characterizes as "significant quality- and safety-related issues" associated with diagnostic imaging.
Visit the Joint Commission website to review the standards and comment. The deadline for submissions is Sept. 25.
View statement on medical staff-hospital compacts
A new AMA policy adopted at its Annual Meeting in June recommends that medical staffs should not enter into compacts or similar agreements with their hospitals' governing bodies or administration. Introduced by the AMA Organized Medical Staff Section, the policy encourages organized medical staffs and hospital governing bodies to do the following:
- Clearly define within the medical staff bylaws the obligations of each party.
- Outline within the medical staff bylaws the processes by which conflicts between the organized medical staff and the hospital governing body are to be resolved.
- Regard the medical staff bylaws as a binding, mutually enforceable agreement between the organized medical staff and the hospital governing body.
Download the AMA's full statement on medical staff-hospital compacts to learn more.
AMA members: Valuable resources now free eBooks
Three practical resources for AMA members, previously available in digital "flip book" format, are now available through the AMA Store as free eBook downloads:
- Physician's Guide to Medical Staff Organization Bylaws, Fifth Edition is an outstanding reference manual for drafting or amending medical staff bylaws. In addition to providing bylaws language that supports self-governance, this resource addresses Joint Commission Standard MS.01.01.01, as well as other emerging issues in health care that impact medical staffs.
- Annotated Model Physician-Hospital Employment Agreement addresses the specific needs of physicians who are preparing to negotiate employment contracts with hospitals or related entities.
- Model Co-Management Service Line Agreement assists physicians and their legal counsel in navigating and negotiating these increasingly popular and complex agreements.
AMA members can download these eBooks free of charge; non-members may purchase access to them for $149 each.

This past year on Adopt 8, we featured 34 children - kids who are considered "difficult to place," for various reasons.
We are happy to share with you that many of these kids are enjoying the holidays with their new families, but sadly 10 of the children we profiled in 2012 still have no family to call their own.
In the above Adopt 8 video, Photojournalist Ann Marie Spaulding and Marcella Lee take a look back at the children featured in 2012.
Since Adopt 8 first aired in November 1999, 675 foster children have been featured with 441 of these kids now in a forever home.
And we thank the wonderful families in San Diego who have opened up their homes and hearts to expand their families through adoption.

One way to demonstrate your preparedness for the demanding field of law is by becoming an Accredited Legal Professional (ALP). This designation is awarded after passing a four-hour, three-part examination. Attaining this goal demonstrates your commitment and aptitude for succeeding in the ever-changing legal environment.
The ALP Examination:
demonstrates ability to perform business communication tasks;
gauges ability to maintain office records and calendars, and prioritize multiple tasks when given real-life scenarios;
measures understanding of office equipment and related procedures;
denotes aptitude for understanding legal terminology, legal complexities, and supporting documents;
- appraises knowledge of law office protocol as prescribed by ethical codes.
This exam formerly used the ALS designation. In order to more fully embrace the diversity of legal professionals entering the workforce and provide those individuals with certifications reflecting that diversity, NALS has adapted the name of its Accredited Legal Secretary (ALS) certification to Accredited Legal Professional (ALP). Effective May 1, 2013, persons who attain or have attained this certification may use either the ALS or ALP designation. This is a change in name only; the quality of the exam remains the same.
ALP Examination Eligibility

the NALS Legal Training Course, or
one year of general office experience.
Membership in NALS is not a requirement.
The Exam Covers
PART 1: Written Communications
PART 2: Office Procedures and Legal Knowledge

Those passing the exam will receive a certificate which is valid for five years. The ALP is eligible for recertification if after the initial 5-year certification period, the certified ALP has obtained 50 hours of CLE. A completed Recertification Form, Affidavit/Application, $50 fee, and copies of education certificates or documentation are submitted to the NALS Resource Center prior to the expiration of the current five-year certification period.

Newton-- A South Georgia police chief resigns to avoid criminal charges.
We told you earlier this month about an incident involving Newton Police Chief Walt Causey. He got into a tussle during a traffic stop.
The people in the car say Causey pulled his gun. He told investigators he didn't, though they say he admitted to other people he did.
Prosecutors charged Causey with making false statements and violation of his oath.
They agreed to drop the charges if Causey resigned and agreed to move out of the South Georgia Judicial circuit. Causey signed documents agreeing to do so Wednesday.

ALBANY, GA (WALB) – You can now learn more about a turning point in Albany's civil rights history at the Albany Civil Rights Institute. Long into the 1970's, blacks in the south struggled for equality.
Johnnie Johnson was a longtime city of Albany employee. In 1972, he finally got tired of being paid less and treated differently than his white counterparts. He walked off his job, and 260 other black employees followed him.
Johnson sued the city, and won, helping black employees receive better pay and treatment. Johnson died in 2000, but his son Yaz says he's proud of the sacrifice his father made.
He said, "If it had not been for the one man that stood up for what he believed in and wanted a better life for blacks here in Albany and the Albany workforce. If it hadn't been for that one man doing what he did, then who knows what it would be like today, but that was the turning point."
You can see the documents from the Johnson vs. Albany lawsuit and pictures from when Johnson walked off the job now on display at the Civil Rights Institute.

Baby Boomers like attributes of annuities, but some may find traditional annuities intimidating, says ING Study
A new study of American investing habits and goals shows that nearly half of Baby Boomers earning at least $50,000 a year like the benefits offered by annuities, but 42 percent of respondents say they are intimidated by the products.
The study, conducted by ING and the research firm Roper Public Affairs, found that Baby Boomer women are particularly interested in the benefits of annuities. Nearly 6 in 10 Boomer women surveyed agree with the statement "protecting my retirement savings from loss is important, but I also want to be able to grow my savings." Four in 10 men agreed.
The study also showed that nearly 70 percent of respondents believe annuities can provide a reliable savings source for income in retirement, though 46 percent say they do not know enough about the products to decide whether or not they are a good investment.
Responding to market needs, ING, through its retail annuities business group, is introducing ING Simplicity, a new variable annuity in its portfolio of products, making the company the first to streamline virtually every key aspect of an annuity and refine the possibilities of retirement savings. ING Simplicity combines sought-after, built-in benefits into a simply packaged approach and product.
"Our study finds that Baby Boomers like the attributes of annuities but a significant number of people find the product intimidating," said Ann Cutts, senior vice president and head of business development for ING Retail Annuities Business Group – a division of ING U.S. Financial Services. "ING Simplicity was designed to appeal to investors who are interested in risk protection and savings growth in a convenient, straight-forward package. ING Simplicity combines the features consumers want for their retirement savings plans."
The ING study finds that Baby Boomers may be relying too heavily on restricted investment vehicles to fund their retirements:
- More than 6 in 10 Boomers surveyed will rely on such restricted investment vehicles as 401(K) plans, Keogh plans or pensions to fund their retirements.
- Fewer than 2 in 10 Boomers surveyed say they will rely heavily on stocks and bonds to fund their retirements.
The study also shows that:
- Nearly 7 in 10 Boomers say they expect to maintain their current lifestyles in retirement, though the percentage declines slightly with Boomers closer to retirement age.
- Only 2 in 10 Boomers feel annuities are for wealthy people with high incomes.
ING Simplicity streamlines and simplifies a new generation of retirement planning at a time when people need to be saving more and seeking to grow their savings for retirement.
"The initial response to ING Simplicity exceeds our early expectations," said John Harline, senior vice president and national sales manager of emerging business for ING's Retail Annuities Business Group.
Harline continued, "According to the study, a majority of Boomers are very positive about annuities. We are introducing ING Simplicity as an option for those who value the unique benefits of an annuity, but may have steered away from an overwhelming volume of information, features and decision-making."
ING Simplicity reflects ING's bold step in being the first to bring to market this concept for financial services:
- Built-in features, free from overwhelming choices of layers of benefit options
- First-of-its kind integrated living and death benefit – built-in
- Simple investment options – four asset allocation fund-of-funds – built-in diversification and upside potential – tailored to risk tolerance
- Streamlined benefits means a streamlined prospectus and single-page application – a simple process with dedicated processing and service teams
Financial professionals interested in more information should call: 888-4ING123
The Roper Public Affairs division of GfK NOP Research and Consulting conducted the survey on behalf of ING.
The results highlighted in this report are based on RDD-telephone interviews conducted from September 16- 20, among a nationally representative sample of 500 Baby Boomers (adults age 40-59) with an annual household income of $50,000 or more in the contiguous United States.
Weighting targets were applied to the data to ensure that the sample reflects census projections for adults in this age and income range by sex, education, race, and geographic region.
The margin of error for the full sample (n=500) at the 95% confidence level is 5.5 percentage points.
Investors should consider investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of the variable annuity product and underlying investment options carefully before investing. The prospectus for the variable annuity product and underlying investment options contain this and other information. Investors and financial professionals may obtain a prospectus by calling ING USA's Customer Service Center at 800-366-0066. Investors should read the prospectus carefully before investing.
ING variable annuities are flexible premium deferred combination variable and fixed annuities available in most states. ING variable annuities are issued by ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company and distributed by Directed Services, Inc., member FINRA. ING Simplicity Variable Annuity is not available in the State of New York. ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company is not admitted in the State of New York. Variable annuities are long-term investment vehicles designed for retirement purposes and are subject to market fluctuation, investment risk and possible loss of principal. Variable annuities are not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC/NCUA. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

It happened well after midnight last night, so you may not have seen it live. You probably won't see it at all if you casually scan the box score. But something frustrating and all-too-predictable happened in the 9th inning of last night's Orioles game.
Aubrey Huff led off the top of the 9th inning of tie game with a single. With Melvin Mora coming to the plate, there were a number of options available to the Orioles manager.
Small ball orthodoxy dictates that you replace the plodding Aubrey Huff with a pinch runner, and ask Mora to bunt him over to second. Sabermetricians often malign the sacrifice, but according to Michael Lichtman and Tom Tango, this may be the rare situation where a bunt is appropriate:
Late in a close game, in a low run-scoring environment, it is correct to often sacrifice bunt with a runner on first and no outs. In an average run-scoring environment, you should sometimes sacrifice to keep the defense honest.
Dave Trembley decided not to bunt and he also decided not to put Felix Pie out on the basepaths.
That's fine, because it's also defensible to give Melvin a pat on the back and tell him to be patient and look for a pitch he can drive. That's exactly what Dave appeared to be doing, as Melvin quickly worked the count to 3-1.
Then something strange happened - or at least, I imagine it would be strange to anyone who doesn't follow the Orioles closely.
Dave Trembley called for the hit-and-run. This wasn't the first time he called for the hit-and-run in this game, as Adam Jones narrowly avoided being doubled off on a line drive out just a few innings earlier. In fact, I don't think I've ever seen another major league manager call for the hit-and-run as reliably as Dave Trembley.
Dave Trembley hates the double play, which is understandable. Perhaps last night he was still reeling from Matt Wieters' inning-ending GIDP with the bases loaded earlier in the night. But I'm convinced that the hit-and-run causes as many double plays as it prevents, and it ALWAYS puts the hitter in a position where they must shorten their swing and sacrifice power in order to make contact.
The hit-and-run should be used sparingly, and it should absolutely never be used with a slow runner on first, a strikeout pitcher on the mound, and a below-average contact hitter at the plate.
Lets get the game recap over with. Melvin Mora fouls off the first pitch with Huff running. Dave calls for the hit-and-run again. Melvin Mora fouls off the next pitch. Dave calls for the hit-and-run again. Melvin Mora swings through the pitch for a strikeout and Huff is nailed by a mile a second base. Rally over.
That was the fifth time Aubrey Huff was caught "stealing" this year, and he has yet to successfully steal a base. The Orioles lead the American League in caught stealing, and they are near the bottom in stolen bases. Only Brian Roberts and Adam Jones have stolen more bases than they have been caught stealing.
There's more to the problem than the hit-and-run, though. Doesn't it seem like the Orioles are also getting picked off a lot, including two more pickoffs last night? Doesn't it also seem like they are getting doubled off on line drives or nailed at the plate or trying to stretch an extra base pretty much every day?
Thanks to Dan Fox's work at Baseball Prospectus, we have a pretty good way of quantifying all of this. Fox developed a series of stats to measure baserunning. The statistics are all expressed in run values above and below average. EqSBR measures the value of stolen bases versus caught stealing. EqHAR, EqGAR, EqAAR, and EqOAR measure how well a team advances bases on hits, groundouts, air outs, and wild pitches respectively.
Let's take a look at the 2009 leaderboard:
EqSBR: The Orioles rank 30th out of 30 teams.
EqHAR: The Orioles rank 25th out of 30 teams.
EqGAR: The Orioles rank 29th out of 30 teams.
EqAAR: The Orioles rank 30th out of 30 teams.
EqOAR: The Orioles rank 5th out of 30 teams, but this is by far the least important category.
Add it all up, and you get, EqBRR which measures the total runs above/below average for baserunning as a team. Not surprisingly, the Orioles rank dead last at -15 runs.
It's not fair to blame all of this on Trembley, but the stats are pretty revealing. The Orioles ranked 9th in EqBRR in 2006. In 2007, with a half year of Trembley, they fell to 19th. In 2008, with a full year of Trembley, the Orioles ranked dead last, and this year they rank dead last again and are on pace to be the worst baserunning team in recent history.
The numbers don't lie. Dave Trembley's strategy of aggressive baserunning has been a miserable failure and it is making a bad team even worse. Those 15 runs that the Orioles have squandered on the basepaths this year could easily be worth three wins given the high-leverage situations that the outs are occuring in. According to Fangraphs, the Orioles went from being 60% favorites to win the game to 40% underdogs because of the failed hit-and-run last night. Three more wins and three fewer losses make this Orioles team a .500 ballclub.
It's time for Dave Trembley to adopt a baserunning strategy that makes sense, or it's time for Andy MacPhail to find someone else who will.
Edit: I found one more opinion I trust on this, the Earl himself:
I don't have a hit-and-run sign, and I believe it's the worst play in baseball. First, the runner is going to second base at half speed, looking to see if the hitter makes contact. If the hitter fails to connect, 90 percent of the time that runner is thrown out stealing second. Also, the hitter is at a disadvantage because he knows he has to swing at any pitch in order to protect the runner. Odds are that he'll be going after a pitch that isn't a particularly good one to hit. It puts everyone at a disadvantage and I don't think much of it.

Philip Gourevitch – The Rwandan Genocide and its Aftermath
Posted by firstname.lastname@example.com on Wednesday, September 11, 2013 in News.
We wish to inform you that tomorrow we will be killed with our families. This is the title of Philip Gourevitch's award-winning book about the 1994 Rwandan genocide of Tutsis by Hutus, in which nearly a million persons were systematically murdered. Currently Mr. Gourevitch – a regular contributor to the New Yorker magazine – is working on a new book about the aftermath of the Rwandan genocide – how a society can begin to recover from a collective trauma of such magnitude. In his talk he will share with us his most recent research and reflections.

The Murray St. Racers continued their rebound after suffering their first loss of the season last week. After Saturday's victory over Austin Peay, the Racers made it two wins in a row by defeating the Southeast Missouri St. Redhawks on Wednesday night, 75-66.
Donte Poole led the Racers with 25 points off the bench. He was 7-of-13 from the field and hit on 4-of-6 three-pointers. Also coming off the bench, Jewuan Long scored 10 points on 5-of-10 shooting. Ivan Aska led all starters with 14 points and nine rebounds. Ed Daniel took just four shots, but he made all of them count, as well as two of his three free throws. He finished the game with 10 points and eight rebounds.
Southeast Missouri St. had four scorers hit double-digit points, but none more than Leon Powell's 13 points. He also led the team in rebounds with eight. The Redhawks had trouble finding the basket, though, hitting on just 37.3 percent of their field goal attempts.
The Racers will headline ESPN's BracketBusters 2012 event Saturday when they face off against the St. Mary's Gaels.

This post is sponsored by Nestlé® Toll House® Morsels, the perfect special ingredient for all of your family's favorite treats!
I am asked often by my children if they can assist me in the kitchen. A lot of time I have to turn them away because a) I'm in a hurry, b) I know I'm short on patience, c) if you let 1 help then the other 3 want to join in the fun too or d) all of the above. So it is a special afternoon if we are able to all get together in the kitchen and bake up something delicious. Nestlé® Toll House® Morsels recently gave us the chance to do just that – we decide to use their semi-sweet chocolate chunks and the kitchen gadget collector in me lovely adores the new set of measuring cups and spoons.
It was a chilly, cloudy afternoon when we gathered around the mixer while my youngest was napping. They all took turns measuring and dumping, switching on the mixer and scooping out the dough. I kept catching them trying to sneak a taste of the dough…I have no idea where they get that from {wink wink}! We tried a new cookie recipe and it was everything you would dream a triple chocolate oreo chunk cookie would be – SUPER CHOCOLATY and especially amazing warm from the oven!
And obviously we are a family full of beater lickers…who can resist fresh cookie dough?! The great thing about making cookies with so many little helpers is that there is plenty of turns for dropping that dough on the baking sheet.
I love this picture…I may enlarge it and hang it in my kitchen, this is a great example of their different personalities and it just makes me want to squeeze them all real tight! So in summary, the chocolate lover in your life will love you to pieces for making these for them and you will have about 4 dozen or so…plenty for sharing (or freezing for later should you wish to keep them all for yourself!)
Triple Chocolate Oreo Chunk Cookies
- 2 1/2 cups FLOUR
- 1 teaspoon BAKING SODA
- 1/4 teaspoon SALT
- 3/4 cup COCOA POWDER (I used one that is a mix of natural & Dutch processed)
- 1 cup BUTTER, room temperature
- 1 cup GRANULATED SUGAR
- 1 cup BROWN SUGAR
- 2 teaspoons VANILLA EXTRACT
- 1 cup WHITE BAKING CHIPS
- 1 cup SEMI-SWEET CHUNKS
- 1 cup CHOPPED OREOS
- Preheat oven to 375°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a Silpat baking mat.
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt and cocoa powder.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together butter and sugars. Add in eggs and vanilla; mix until well combined. Add flour mixture slowly, stop mixing when you can't see any more streaks of flour. Stir in chips, chunks and cookies.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons onto baking sheet. Bake for 8-9 minutes until just set. Cool on baking sheet another 3 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool.

Facebook is supposed to let us continue relationships over thousands of miles, but let's be honest: We all have numerous friends on the site we don't like.
However, there a Connecticut photographer has decided to meet all his friends face-to-face, according to HLNTV.com.
Ty Morin has 788 Facebook friends he plans to not only meet in person, but to also take a photo of them doing what they love.
"The idea here isn't to get everyone in a room and fire off hundreds of pictures one after another. I want to sit down with everyone and witness what gets their blood pumping."
Morin has raised more than $5,000 for all the traveling he has to do via a KickStarter page.

Bowl For Kids' Sake, coming up Sept 18 in Port St. Lucie, is a great event that raises significant money for the vitally important Big Brothers Big Sisters program in St. Lucie County.
I've participated several times and can testify to how much fun it is and how rewarding it feels to be helping the work the agency does to improve the lives of children in our community.
If you have not participated before, do so, if space is still available. You won't regret it.
And, as I can also testify, you certainly don't have to be a good bowler to have a good time.

Before and After P90X
This year has been a year of health for me (more on that in another post). Part of that has been a physical up-fit that included P90X.
I started this year weighing in at 230 pounds and wearing size 40 pants. The current stats are 180 pounds and size 32 pants!!
Here are some photos of the 230 man and the skinnier guy that's working his way out.

Great job brother!!! That really rocks.. We at Centerpoint in Chillicothe are trying to follow you guys. We did a half marathon to start the year, all saw success. Haven't been able to stay consistent with P90x thus far. Pastor Chris VanBuskirk is headed your way next week so be sure to get him motivated P90x style.. .Again great job.
Congratulations Daryl, I have followed your progress with each post. This is awesome!

North Scott High School Student Gretchen Mohr believes that the battle against hunger starts at home. She has organized the first, ever, Youth Hunger Summit in the Quad Cities.
Gretchen is an organizer and a hunger fighter. She believes the table is set for change and now is the time teens can help to change hunger.
For three months, Gretchen has worked for hundreds of hours, contacting local school districts and companies, arranging for speakers, and raising thousands of dollars to organize the summit.
Mohr's hero is the late Doctor Norman Borlaug, the Nobel Prize Winner from Cresco, Iowa. She produced a documentary about the man who worked for years in Mexico to develop a form of disease resistant wheat. He literally taught the world how to feed itself.
Borlaug believed that food is a moral right for all people. So, Gretchen Mohr says the summit is her way to educate the next generation to pick up where Norman Borlaug left off.
Gretchen hopes that what students learn at the summit will inspire them to develop projects and help fight hunger in their own backyards. She wants to impress upon teenagers how important it is to think globally and act locally.
There will be about 250 students at the event. They plan to package 24 thousand meals for local families.
The summit takes place on Monday, November 19th, at the Rogalski Center at Saint Ambrose University. It runs from 8:30am - 2:30pm.

It has been said that the Patriots may be getting rid of Lloyd and Welker. Lloyd could be the veteran #1 WR we need and I don't think he will be too expensive and this could be his last contract. If Reggie could sign him then we really could just focus on our O-Line and D during the draft. Hopefully we have the cap room to make some decent signings. Also I posted this in a comment but I made a list of some possibly cheap and young free agents we could sign My wish list of cheap and young free agents
CB – Mike Jenkins- DALJust throwing it out there !!!
CB – Bruce Johnson- NYG
FS – Troy Nolan – Backup who could replace Huff
Resign Bryant
LB – Keith Rivers hasn't done much but he would be cheap depth he might want to come back to Cali.
DT if we actually cut Kelley Alan Branch played better with SEA than with ARI

What Are You Playing? April 26th, 2014
Posted on Saturday, April 26 @ 09:00:00 Eastern by Daniel Bischoff
This weekend, I'm putting the finishing touches on our review of Kirby: Triple Deluxe, the other major 3DS release in May following Mario Golf: World Tour. This platformer packs a punch, both visually with the 3D turned on and in gameplay as Kirby's new fighting mechanics will have you furiously pounding away at enemies and bosses. Look out for our review and score next week.
My weekend will also be full of various indie games and downloadables like Child of Light and hopefully something unique I've missed in the past few months. If I happen to get on my consoles, I might play a little Garden Warfare or inFamous: Second Son to continue chasing the Paper Trail. But tell us,
