Late Night Grande Hotel is Nanci?s 9th album, and was released in 1991.

Released in 2013, Flex is Kings is a documentary following the lives of young African-American flex dancers over a two-year period. Flex, an undulating, free-style street-dance, originated in Brooklyn, New York and is centered around Battlefest, where dancers face off to find out who flexes best. The filmmakers do an incredible job using artistic camera shots and beautiful staging to capture the evocative, athletic nature of flex dancing. Focusing on the community of dancers and the struggles they face, the movie is an elegant reminder of the power of dance. Read More..
If you're looking for action and love stories, chances are, you're a fan of Romantic Suspense novels. The key factor in these novels is danger, whether it involves a murder investigation or a government conspiracy. Fans of this subgenre are in good company — it's quite popular. Here are a handful of suggestions, and we've made a list of even more popular romantic suspense authors in the catalog. Read More..
The stereotypical 20th century office secretary—taker of dictation, orderer of flowers for the boss's wife, getter of coffee—was a silent participant in whatever glory or tragedy befell her employers. Such secretaries rarely found themselves subjects of historical interest, except perhaps in studies of the marginalization of women in the workplace, and characters like Mad Men's Peggy Olson have portrayed the heartbreaking limitations of the job with an empowered twist hopefully more reflective of today's female labor force. But in two of the best movies I've seen recently, real life secretaries quietly performing their duties became involved in the most momentous historic events of the last century. Read More..

If you ventured to Merriam to see its nascent IKEA store, you've gotten a taste of furnishing-rabid hordes and the mega-store's beguiling floor plans. Perhaps you felt grasped by the need for a low-price ARKELSTORP or POÄNG. I was convinced to brave the lines to see this phenomenon, and from my visit I concluded two things: one, IKEA is pretty creepy; and two, I can't afford to not upgrade with a new set of ÅFJÄRDEN.
I'm not the only one to be spooked. Grady Hendrix, author of Yeti vs Bear and Asian film blog Kaiju Shakedown, brings the theme to its apex with Horrorstör, an archetypal haunted-house story set in an after-hours IKEA. In a recent interview, Hendrix explained his vision: "Everyone who's shopped at Ikea knows that they're designed to get you lost, just like a haunted house. From "The Shining" Overlook Hotel to the Minotaur's labyrinth, horror happens when you enter a place you might never leave. Ikea just happens to offer low, low prices and plenty of Tickar dinnerware as it lures you deeper and deeper, away from the sunlight."
The book itself is designed to ape a typical IKEA furniture catalog. The retailer is renamed ORSK in the novel for legal reasons, but the parallel is blatant. Horrorstör is laden with illustrations— at first innocent lounge fixtures. As the story develops, they become increasingly nefarious.
Horrorstör begins on a mundane weekday morning. Readers first meet Amy, a young woman fallen into a rut of disappointments. The will-sapping aura of retail work is immediately palatable as Amy finishes her coffee and begins her shift at ORSK. Strange things have been afoot: merchandise is being desecrated in the night, cryptic graffiti appears in the restrooms, and the text message "help me" mysteriously broadcasts to every employee's phone. Assistant manager Basil— a zealous believer in the ORSK philosophy— has had enough. When he calls Amy into his office, she thinks she's soon to be fired for her lackluster work ethic. Instead, Basil asks that she stay in the building through the night to catch whoever is damaging BROOKAs and KJERRINGs.
That night, after all the shoppers have gone home, Amy and few other colorful employees gather to begin their watch of the phantasmagorical store. And then things get really weird. This is not a mere Paranormal Activity-esque bump in the night story. The sinister presence within ORSK comes out swinging— think Evil Dead 2 level craziness, mixed with the ambiance of The Amityville Horror.
The book is best read in as few sittings as possible and preferably late at night. The plot unravels quickly, and the characters are likable, but realistically complex. Hendrix doesn't present anything startlingly innovative in the plot— the book is mostly a skilled application of horror tropes. Each chapter is veined with commentary on big box retail culture and consumerism. The furniture catalog format and commitment to the theme makes it an incredibly cool book; fans of House of Leaves can finally enjoy another uniquely-packaged title with wall-warping hi-jinks.
Horrorstör is a great read and is perfect for Halloween— especially if you missed out on the new IKEA, or went, and hoped for something more hair-raising than several thousand hunks of chipboard.
UPDATE- A television adaption of Horrorstör is in the works, per io9.com. Don't worry— there's plenty of time to pick up a copy and catch up on the ORSK mythos before it hits prime time.

It takes a certain kind of nerd to want to read the dictionary, and there's even a name for it: logophile, or lover of words. I'm always been interested in obscure words and how definitions of certain words have changed over time. I was the kind of kid who read the dictionary for fun. Really.
I'm not quite ambitious enough to undertake reading the entire Oxford English Dictionary, but I was intrigued enough by the idea to read Reading the OED: One Man, One Year, 21,730 Pages by Ammon Shea. In 26 chapters, Shea shares his experience reading every single word in the dictionary and documents the amusing words he discovers during the process. It was an interesting and entertaining read.
About the time I finished, my friend, an acquisitions editor at Oxford University Press, said she got an email at work asking for suggestions on words to add to the OED as well as nominations for word of the year (last year's was selfie) and asked for ideas. While I couldn't think of a word I thought warranted such an honor, it did get me thinking about how a word enters a dictionary, as well as how early dictionaries were compiled. Turns out, it's quite a tale, and is documented in The Professor and the Madman: A Tale of Murder, Insanity, and the Making of the Oxford English Dictionary by Simon Winchester. Read More..
What inspires the artist to create? Is it borne of a deep connection with the instrument or medium? Is it a need to connect one's inner life with the outer world? Is making art about influencing change or creating beauty or making peace? As this process of creation is unique to each of us, the possibilities are endless. Self-Made Worlds: Visionary Folk Art Environments offers a glimpse into the world of artists whose works "challenge long-standing ideas about what art is and what it can be." These artists, often self-taught, tend to focus on spiritual and mystical themes and have sometimes been categorized as outsider, visionary, or folk artists.

Bahri announce the Interim Consolidated Financial Results for the 12-month period ended 31st December, 2012.
The National Shipping Company of Saudi Arabia (Bahri) report that Net profit, for the 12-months totaled SAR 500.4 million compared to SAR 287.7 million for the corresponding period for the year 2011, an increase of 74 %. However, Net profit, for the fourth quarter was down and totaled SAR 73 million compared to SAR 113.3 million for the corresponding quarter for the year 2011, a decrease of 35.6%.
The CEO of Bahri, Eng. Saleh Nasser Al-Jasser attributed the decrease in the net profit during the fourth quarter compared with the same corresponding period of the year 2011 to the decrease in Petredec Limited profit (Bahri owns 30.3% share) as well as the deceasing in net income of The National Chemical Carriers Ltd. Co. (NCC) (Bahri owns 80 % share).
He also traced the increase in the net income during the 12-months period compared with the same corresponding period of the year 2011 to the improvement in the Oil and Gas sector and General Cargo sector as well as profiting from Bahri Dry Bulk (BDB) which started its operating from this year. Also, lower fuel consumption cost due to Bahri having adopted a new policy of slow steaming of all vessels.
In related news, Bahri also announced the sale of one of its general cargo vessels, the Saudi Abha for scrap. This sale is expected to generate net profit about SAR(21) million after deducting its book value and all expenses associated with the sale, and the financial impact of this transaction will be reflected in the 1st Quarter of 2013 results.
The Company had previously announced the signing of six ship building contracts to acquire six new general cargo vessels to replace the older fleet in this sector. Three sister ships to Saudi Abha remain to be sold in sequence coinciding with the delivery of the first of these 4 new ships.
New products on display will include the Dometic Cup Cooler, the Smart Touch Integrated Intelligence Control system and the Dometic Sea Xchange watermakers; attendees

Orbital Sciences Corporation (NYSE: ORB), one of the world's leading space technology companies, congratulates the Dawn Flight Team, headed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), for its selection as recipients of the 2014 Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum (NASM) Trophy for Current Achievement. This prestigious award recognizes the accomplishments of the Dawn Flight Team for operating the deep-space asteroid exploration spacecraft which reached Vesta in mid-2011, examined the near planet-size asteroid from a low-altitude orbit for over a year, and continued its journey to explore the dwarf planet Ceres, which it will reach in early 2015. Dawn was launched from Cape Canaveral in September 2007.
Orbital designed, built and tested the spacecraft and supports ongoing mission operations. The Dawn spacecraft incorporates a revolutionary ion propulsion system developed by NASA, which enables the spacecraft to continuously accelerate. This key technology made the orbit of two large solar system bodies possible, the first time it will ever have been done by one spacecraft on a single mission.
Drawing upon cost-effective and flight-proven spacecraft technology, Orbital designed and produced the Dawn spacecraft, which measures 20 meters (or 65 feet) wide with its solar panels deployed and incorporates instruments provided by mission partners from Italy, Germany and the U.S., at the company's manufacturing and test facilities in Dulles, VA. Dawn is Orbital's second deep-space planetary mission, following the Deep Space 1 spacecraft built at the company's Gilbert, AZ operations and launched in 1999.
About the Dawn Program
Dawn has traveled 4.4 billion kilometers (or 2.7 billion miles) since launch, reaching the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter and orbiting its first target. Dawn arrived at Vesta in July 2011. Vesta is the second most massive body in the main belt, the brightest of the asteroids, and the only one visible with the naked eye from Earth. The spacecraft spent over a year orbiting the asteroid, mapping the body and conducting other remote sensing observations using a suite of science instruments. Dawn departed from Vesta's orbit in September 2012 and is currently en-route to rendezvous with the largest asteroid, Ceres, in early 2015. Dawn will collect similar scientific data at Ceres to what it gathered at Vesta.
Earth-based studies indicate that these two protoplanets have very different and complementary compositions, providing clues to the conditions and processes of planetary formation. Recent observations by the Herschel Space Observatory confirm the presence of water vapor surrounding Ceres, making the close-up observations planned by Dawn even more intriguing for the science community.
About Orbital
Orbital develops and manufactures small- and medium-class rockets and space systems for commercial, military and civil government customers. The company's primary products are satellites and launch vehicles, including low-Earth orbit, geosynchronous-Earth orbit and planetary exploration spacecraft for communications, remote sensing, scientific and defense missions; human-rated space systems for Earth-orbit, lunar and other missions; ground- and air-launched rockets that deliver satellites into orbit; and missile defense systems that are used as interceptor and target vehicles. Orbital also provides satellite subsystems and space-related technical services to U.S. Government agencies and laboratories. More information about Orbital can be found at http://www.orbital.com.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

Double Fine's conquest of Kickstarter in 2012. It's the drive that initiated "The Year of the Game," a year where some of the biggest and most successful Kickstarter campaigns were attached to video game projects. In a 2012 retrospective post, Kickstarter reveals a total of $83 million was earned for video games through successful Kickstarter drives, the most out of any category on the crowd-funding website.
A total of 2,796 video game projects asked for funding on Kickstarter in 2012; 911 projects successfully reached goal thanks to 561,574 backers. Compared to the stats found in other categories last year (we're looking at you, Dance!), it's difficult to argue against 2012 truly being "The Year of the Game" on Kickstarter.

JOHOR BARU: Two Marshall Islands registered vessels carrying 20 foreigners including those from Romania, Bulgaria and Croatia were detained for anchoring without valid permits in Tanjung Piai waters near Pontian.
According to the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) district enforcement chief Maritime Captain Aminuddin Abd Rashid said the agency noticed the vessels during an operation conducted at around 10.30am recently.
He said the vessels, registered in the island country located in the northern part of the Pacific Ocean, were MV Cape Madrid and MV Cape Magnus.
"Both vessels were found to be anchoring illegally as they did not pay its light dues, also known as parking fees to anchor in that spot," he said.
Capt Aminuddin added that 20 of the vessels' crew from the Philippines, Latvia, Romania, Croatia, Bulgaria and China were arrested to assist in investigations.
"The men, including the vessels' captains, have been brought to the Johot Baru district maritime headquarters for following actions," he said.
He also said that the vessels' owners could be charged under Section 491B(1)(l) of the Merchant Shipping Ordinance for failing to inform the Marine Department director of ship-to-ship activity in Malaysian waters and failing to pay their light dues.
He added that the offence was punishable by fines of up to RM100,000 or two years' imprisonment or both.
"The MMEA takes such matters seriously although light dues may seem like a small matter and tend to be overlooked.
"We urge the vessel owners to obey the law as it could prevent untoward incidences such as vessels colliding into each other, pollution and loss of lives," he said.

NOV 26 Zach Kopplin, who we came to know and love when he was a Louisiana high school student lobbying for the continued inclusion of science stuff in science class, pens this post in The Atlantic about a "textbook" available for social studies instruction in Texas that discusses how Moses contributed to the Constitution. (Oy! Texas rednecks love Jews. Who knew?)
NOV 26 Finally, mad people on the interwebz is a good thing! World wide webby outrage has caused the village of Moreauville to reverse its plan to confiscate pit bulls and Rottweillers and euthanize them simply because of their breed, WAFB reports here. The plan? They're going to enforce the leash law. Well, that would have been a good place to start.
NOV 26 Jim Brown, like many of us Louisiana voters, seems fed up with out of town know-it-alls trying to tell us what to do. Bill Cassidy can't make it through the day without flying someone in to "tell us political retards" how to vote, he says.
NOV 26 Blogger Tom Aswell is writing about the behavior of the two finalists in the 6th Congressional District race: Edwin Edwards and Garret Graves. Edwards has come out swinging, but Graves' campaign seems bent on snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, Tom says.
NOV 26 Blogger CB Forgotston is confused, he says, because Governor Bobby Jindal said higher education wouldn't get cut, but it looks like it is being cut. CB's asking: When is a cut not a cut?
NOV 26 Unless you're in Virigina, you shouldn't count on seeing our Governor on Election Day. Mark Ballard writes in the Advocate's political blog that Bobby will be appearing at a GOP love fest of some kind there, instead of spending the day here.
NOV 26 This post on The Lens takes a look at the ongoing dispute in New Orleans over the banners about the upcoming tax election for the school system. The banners are hanging on schools, and some feel they are promotional, which is not allowed, instead of educational - which is allowed.
NOV 26 Not all college students are focused on football games and parties at this time of year. This post on DIG Baton Rouge recounts an LSU student group that tries to make sure that those who are hungry and homeless are not forgotten by those of us who aren't.
NOV 25 Edwin Edwards took off the gloves on Monday, this post on WAFB tells us. At a Press Club appearance, he wondered how his 6th Congressional District opponent, Garret Graves, could be an expert in all the areas in which he claims to be - when he has no college degree in anything. (Five years - FIVE YEARS - in college, but no degree. Huh?)
NOV 25 Blogger Mike Deshotels offers this primer on predatory charter schools and how they operate, specifically in Louisiana. They're not just profiting from our tax dollars, they're using children and shortchanging them to do so, Deshotels says.
NOV 25 Here's a link to the petition that has been created to save Zeus, a family dog who is targeted for death by the learned fathers of the Avoyelles Parish village of Moreauville. They passed an ordinance based on nothing that outlaws pit bulls and Rotweillers. As of Tuesday morning, the petition had more than 230,000 signatures - a number that's a wee bit higher than the village population of 929.

Flower dress. Yellow is the ovule (I think that's what you call it) and the leafs/petals are in green. I did everything myself from the sketch to the sewing. I hand stitched/embroidered each leaf's veins, each individual leaf took me over 1 hour to finish with a total of 33 leafs. I also mainly put the entire bottom part (leafs) by hand so that it can look more flowy and not so stiff.
yellow in 100% silk.
green in suede.

So original! The interesting thing about this dress is that it's actually wearable. The leaf embroidery is a perfect detail. I'm so impressed with your patience and effort to hand stich and embroider the leafs. What was the occasion for creating such an unusual dress?

Yellow Peas, also known as Dry Peas, are one of the most widely used pulse crops in the world. A native of China, Yellow Pea cultivation currently is concentrated in few countries in the world. Broadly two varieties --dry green peas and dry yellow peas--exist for Yellow Peas.
Peas are the most heavily imported pulse into India. Global output of Yellow Peas is estimated to be around 12 million tons. Canada accounts for bulk of the global output with over 3 million tons on average per year.
Want to know more about the exciting world of India's Pulses market? Check out here!
Canada is also the leading global supplier with nearly 20 percent of the global Yellow Peas trade. Nearly 140 countries in the world are depending upon major producers of yellow peas for their requirements. China, India, France, Australia etc. are the other major producers.
India is rated as the fourth largest producer of Yellow Peas in the world with an output of nearly 800,000 tons per year. India is also the largest importer of the crop accounting for around 700,000-800,000 tons. Uttar Pradesh is the main producing centre in India with 60 percent of the country's total output. Other major producers are Madhya Pradesh, Bihar and Punjab.
Import plays a crucial role in shaping domestic market as the country imports nearly 50 percent of its requirement. Absence of clear idea about crop situation in importing countries, domestic climatic conditions and prices of other pulse crop are other major determining factors in the case of yellow peas. Main markets of yellow peas in the country are Mumbai, Jalgaon, Latur, Akola, Indore, Bhopal and Vidisha
The major players in the yellow peas value chain in India are importers, their brokers, stockists, wholesale traders, and retail outlets. The information flow is restricted to the major wholesale traders and stockists.

Anarchy in Sinai
Sinai border fence 370.
(photo credit:Reuters/ BAZ RATNER)
The attack Monday morning along our border with Egypt near Kadesh Barnea that
left one Defense Ministry construction worker and at least two terrorists dead
is yet another reminder of the lawlessness that has become the status quo in the
Sinai Peninsula.Just this weekend a terrorist cell operating in Sinai
fired two Grad rockets that hit near Ovda and Mitzpe Ramon.The recent
conflagrations coincide with the second round of Egypt's presidential elections.
But attacks emanating from Sinai directed at Israel are part of a broader
strategy on the part of Hamas, Islamic Jihad, al-Qaida and other Islamist
terrorist organizations to ramp up tension between the Jewish state and post-
Mubarak Egypt.In May, in a rare case in which Egypt asserted its
authority over an area that is usually only nominally under its control,
security forces operating in Sinai managed to intercept a convoy of three trucks
carrying more than 40 surface-to-surface missiles, 17 rocket- propelled
grenades, 120 mm. mortar shell launchers, seven assault rifles along with 10,000
rounds of ammunition, and surveillance equipment. By keeping tensions high
between the countries, the Islamists hope at the very least to drain Israeli
resources by forcing the IDF to redirect resources to the once quiet southern
border. And their strategy is working.As long as the Mubarak regime was
in power, the Beduin tribes that inhabit Sinai were kept relatively in order.
But in the wake of Hosni Mubarak's ouster and the disarray into which Egypt's
politics was thrown as a result, its military forces have quickly lost control.
Sinai has gradually become what Yoram Schweitzer, senior research fellow at Tel
Aviv University's Institute for National Security Studies, cynically refers to
as "a playground" for the Beduin and an array of terrorist groups, include
Islamist action-seekers from Somalia, Sudan and elsewhere.Perhaps the
most positive recent development – from Israel and the West's perspective – was
the decision last week by the Egyptian Supreme Constitutional Court to dissolve
the newly elected parliament, 75 percent of whose members were
Islamists.Ostensibly, the court's rationale was that established party
lists illegally took the one-third of the seats that had been set aside for
independent candidates.But large swathes of the Egyptian population –
not just the Muslim Brotherhood and the Salafis but many "liberals" as well –
perceive the move as an attempt by the military junta to reassert itself, in the
process reversing the results of the revolution – and rightly so. These are
judges appointed by Mubarak looking out for the interests of the
military.With the junta maintaining a strong grip on power – at least
for the next few months until new parliamentary elections can be called –
relations between Egypt and Israel are more likely to remain stable than in a
scenario where both the parliament and the presidential seat are controlled by
Islamists. (According to early presidential election results, the Muslim
Brotherhood's Mohamed Morsy has won the race against military junta-affiliated
Ahmed Shafik.) The military junta is more likely to respect the peace treaty
with Israel and take concrete steps to reinstate a modicum of order in Sinai,
which is also an Egyptian interest.True, there is a real danger that the
Muslim Brotherhood, the Salafis and others will reject the court ruling and
spearhead demonstrations that could lead to bloodshed and even civil war.
Indeed, the situation in Egypt is somewhat reminiscent of Algeria at the
beginning of 1992, when the military there stopped the election process to
prevent the democratically elected Islamic Salvation Front from taking control
of the country. Over the two decades since then tens of thousands of Algerians
have been killed.As long as the political situation in Egypt remains
unstable, little will be done to end the anarchy in Sinai. Besides completing
the security fence along the Egyptian border and avoiding direct confrontations
with Egyptian military forces, there is, unfortunately, very little Israel can
do to remedy the chaotic situation in the peninsula.

Police arrest car thief in KumasiSource: Ghana | Luv News | Prince Appiah
Date: 08-01-2014 Time: 04:01:20:am
A 26 year old suspected car snatcher is in the grips of the police in Kumasi, three days after bolting with the vehicle.
Akwasi Asante allegedly snatched the Nissan Almera taxi cab from the driver at gun point in the Greater Accra region.
The suspect altered the digit on the car's registered number plate.
However, a suspicious mechanic, who was fixing a faulty part of the vehicle, led the police to arrest Akwasi Asante.
Zongo District Police Commander, DSP George Bawah says preliminary investigations revealed the suspect pulled a fake pistol to snatch the car.
After making his way with the vehicle to Kumasi, Akwasi Asante lost the car's key when he attempted refuel at Tech-Junction.
It was in the attempt to break free the door at a mechanical shop that the fake pistol was found in the car, leading to Akwasi's arrest.
DSP George Bawah is cautioning the public of the new tricks of car thieves

Monica Lewinsky shopping tell-all book about tryst with Clinton: Reports
Monica Lewinsky is reported to be shopping around a tell-all book about her sexual relationship with U.S. President Bill Clinton.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Washington's best-known former intern Monica Lewinsky is shopping around a tell-all book detailing her sexcapades with former U.S. President Bill Clinton, according to American publications.
Clinton's much-publicized dalliances with then 22-year-old Lewinsky — and his convoluted denial that oral sex didn't amount to sex — in part, almost got the impeached Clinton sacked from the world's most powerful political office.
Lewinsky, who turns 40 next July, is said to be shopping her top-secret book to publishers, and if written as promised, it could easily rocket to the top of must reads in a U.S. hungry to finally get the tawdry details of the two-year tryst.
The New York Post reports that before publishers are even allowed to take a meeting with the infamous White House intern, they must sign a nondisclosure agreement.
The popular Big Apple tabloid is prepared to take the veil off secret love letters to Clinton — the man she once called her sexual soul mate — and detail as well his appetite for kinky sex in her $12-million memoirs.
The Post reports that according to Lewinsky's friends, she is bent on revenge for a life shelved while Clinton went on to become a wealthy respected 66-year-old political statesman and currently a top Barack Obama political campaigner.
"I'm well-known for something that isn't great to be well-known for," Lewinsky, who never married, reportedly said in 1999. Since those years, Lewinsky has obtained a master's degree, worked briefly as a news correspondent and launched a failed handbag line. Her friends complained to the Post that because of her past she can't find a job.
Lewinsky, who has remained relatively silent on details about her encounters with Clinton, now plans to describe his "insatiable desire" for sex, one friend told the National Enquirer.
The story broke in 1998 after Lewinsky was secretly taped talking about her trysts by then best friend Linda Tripp, who reported her to Special Prosecutor Ken Starr.
Actually, Clinton was impeached by the House for perjury and obstruction of justice in the Paula Jones sexual harassment case. Clinton was subsequently acquitted by the Senate.

CMS chief in race against time
Don Berwick, MD, the administrator in charge of Medicare and Medicaid, was having dinner in Dupont Circle not long ago with five of his predecessors when the conversation veered to how long he could keep his job. In the realms of healthcare, his is a pivotal role: overseeing two entitlement programs that insure nearly one in three Americans, sheperding the profound insurance changes spurred by the new healthcare law and serving as chief cheerleader for better care at lower cost. A pioneer in improving medical quality, but a neophyte in Washington politics, Berwick ran into a buzz saw of Republican opposition over old academic writings when President Obama chose him for the task 16 months ago. A year ago this week, the president slid him into the job without Senate confirmation while Congress was out of town. The "recess appointment" installed Berwick at the helm of the Health and Human Services' Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. But, unless the Senate acts, he cannot stay beyond December.
