At a Glance
Six steps are essential to the successful implementation of a revenue cycle self-pay solution:
The changes and challenges for the U.S. healthcare industry today are widely publicized. Employers have seen dramatic rises in healthcare costs, while employees have watched their healthcare deductibles as much as double from the previous year or, in some cases, seen health care disappear as an employment benefit.
Meanwhile, unemployment statistics and the number of Americans without any form of healthcare insurance, with recent estimates at 45 million, continue to rise. These are all compelling reasons for U.S. healthcare providers around the country to redouble their efforts to effectively manage their accounts receivable (A/R) and patient billing.
Many healthcare providers are researching best practices from other industries, like the financial and banking industry, to understand and adapt similar principles in managing A/R. Meanwhile, government and tax regulations also are prompting providers to re-examine their current business processes. Beginning in the 2009 tax year, IRS Form 990 Schedule H will require not-for-profit hospitals to classify their spending for both charity care and bad debt. The need to understand how best to address the many facets of legal compliance, including tracking and reporting on patient accounts, has ensured that these issues will remain at the forefront among the healthcare industry's concerns for the foreseeable future.
One of the ways healthcare institutions can effectively meet these challenges is to implement a revenue cycle self-pay solution in order to automate the process for determining whether a patient is eligible for charity or other financial assistance. These types of software utilize third-party data sources, custom business rules, analytic scoring models, and automated interview processes along with workflow tools to identify a patient's ability and capacity to pay for medical services or qualify for charity and other financial assistance such as Medicaid.
A revenue cycle self-pay solution can provide many tangible benefits to hospital administrators, including:
The last of these benefits merits further discussion. The Medicaid and charity interview process is essentially a series of in-depth questions that a financial counselor asks a patient to determine the patient's preliminary qualification for public aid or the hospital's charity program. The financial counselor uses the patient's answers to these questions, along with supporting documentation, in calculation for completing enrollment forms for these programs.
For many healthcare facilities, gathering this kind of data is a labor-intensive process, as is the process of completing the enrollment forms. The ability of hospitals to enroll patients in these programs is often limited by the difficulty individual staff members face in deciphering the thousands of rules and qualifiers that must be met in order for a patient to qualify for the programs. The manual process also relies on patient self-reported data rather than independent third-party data to accurately validate the patient reported information.
Many hospital financial leaders are either not aware that technological solutions exist to assist with this challenge or require guidance about where to look for best practices on research, implementation, and successful adoption, so that when they do fully engage, they can optimize ROI.
The successful implementation of a revenue cycle solution depends upon a broad process comprising at least the following steps.
If a hospital is interested in such a program, gaining senior leadership sponsorship is the critical first step. Depending on the hospital or hospital system and its size, the steward of change should be the CFO or vice president of revenue cycle or patient financial services. Technology alone cannot produce the type of return needed to justify implementing such a system. Implementation requires a change management mentality across the enterprise that can be achieved only with the support of hospital leadership, including a willingness on the part of leaders to change processes, focus, and perhaps even philosophy.
To gain support of senior leadership, each hospital should have documentation and measures of shortcomings around revenue cycle performance and create a plan for improvement, possibly working with a solution provider or a consultant to build a business case for moving forward.
Once senior leadership has committed to the concept of the new solution, the project leaders should conduct a policy and environmental review, or "gap analysis." This analysis should address the following questions.
Does the hospital's current charity policy and process support the organization's healthcare mission and financial goals? All too often, hospitals improperly implement their charity programs based upon their written policy. Hospitals with the mission to provide free services to those who cannot pay often find that they have no objective way to reliably determine whether a patient is actually qualified to receive the free services, and the result can be a chasm between the hospital's mission and its actual practices.
Hospitals also should be aware of the growing need for them to accurately segment charity accounts from self-pay accounts. In FY09, hospitals will be required to audit and complete IRS Form 990, Schedule H, in documenting the amount of charity care provided to their patients. There also has been a focus both nationally and at the state level on the question of whether hospitals should be required to deliver certain, specific amounts of charity care in order to meet their community benefit requirements and, potentially, to keep their tax-exempt status.
Have macro-economic factors changed the financial performance of the hospital or health system? If a hospital's financial risk changes when a factory shuts down or the largest employer in its geographical area moves to a high-deductible health plan for its employees, the hospital needs to adapt its policies and implement process changes that help manage these macro-economic events. The hospital may need to change its charity program, self-pay discounts, or time payments to meet its financial objectives and maintain its overall community benefit mission.
Can current policies and/or future policies be efficiently and practically supported internally? If the needs of a hospital or the Medicaid program requirements change, how quickly can the hospital adjust its policies and respond to these changes? Without a systematic approach or solution, changes could take months to roll out. With a system that can easily interpret policy and keep track of all public aid changes, a hospital can avoid a lapse in compliance or loss of potential reimbursement.
Can current policies and systems support an objective financial segmentation of patients, and can such a segmentation be supported by quantitative data and analysis? For some hospitals, the ability to determine whether a patient is a self-pay patient or is eligible for charity or public aid comes down to an individual decision made by a financial counselor. Defending subjective decisions is often challenging. By contrast, a revenue cycle self-pay solution is typically based upon objective rules and calculations that are rigorously tested by utilizing quantitative data analysis. Such analysis allows for predictable, policy-based results that can stand up well to an audit of the hospital's policies.
Are there underutilized reimbursement programs that can improve cash flow and profitability? There are a number of such programs available. Under Section 1011 of the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act, for example, hospitals are entitled to apply for reimbursement for undocumented aliens who receive uncompensated care. Many hospitals underutilize this program and leave the opportunity for reimbursement unattended. Victims of Crime is another program for reimbursement that sometimes is underutilized. Under this program, hospitals may seek reimbursement on a first come, first served reimbursement policy. Self-pay solutions should support the ability to request these funds quickly. There also are many Medicaid programs that have different qualifying requirements. The ability to sort through the requirements and place a patient in the most appropriate program is paramount to being reimbursed for services and for maximizing reimbursement.
The next step to successfully implementing a self-pay solution is to identify the best tools and systems to fill those gaps. Several tools are available to hospital administrators related to revenue cycle solutions. To identify the best-in-class systems and tools that best meet its needs, a healthcare organization should start by gathering references for the new solution. Before moving forward with a new solution provider, it is critically important to ask to speak to some of the prospective vendor's customers. In-depth interviews with these customers should include prepared questions and identify specific topics of interest.
To ensure the continued success of the new processes required to implement a revenue cycle self-pay solution, it is critical to establish ownership and accountability. A major component of ownership is departmental and staff alignment, along with change management and adoption. For a revenue cycle self-pay solution, such alignment is necessary among administrators handling registration, financial counseling, and collections.
Administrators in these positions should work together to identify the project's scope and priorities for change. As with all successful implementations, reviewing best practices of peers or parallel industries is a strong starting point. In addition, by mapping end-to-end processes for each affected department, these administrators can identify overlap and redundancies, many of which could be automated by the new solution.
After the selection process, the project leaders should establish measurable goals to manage the expectations of the organization's executive team. Examples of measurable goals and improvement targets include:
Attempting to solve all self-pay revenue cycle issues at once can create distraction, so it is important to stay focused on specific areas at first. Priorities for improvement should be based upon the areas of pain within the hospital. For example, if a hospital sees a large number of uninsured patients, then patient financial segmentation may be a greater concern than insurance verification. Other priorities may be based upon improving point of service collections for patients with high-deductible insurance plans. Each hospital should set priorities where improvements will significantly affect its bottom line. Nonetheless, a successful solution should include additional tools that could be used to serve other areas of the revenue cycle as the needs of the hospital evolve.
Proper training of hospital support staff is imperative. A consistent training program ensures that the flow of benefits from the solution will be uninterrupted, even in times of staff turnover. Ongoing training and cross-training, consistent expectations and measurement, incentives for desired behaviors, and use of measures of employee satisfaction are just some of the tactics that should be used in the training process.
Also important is the assessment of employees' need for training in the A/R process. A key to a successful implementation is a consistent approach to patient communication. Registrars and financial counselors should be given easy-to-use job-aids that they can reference when meeting with patients.
When communicating with patients, registrars should be prepared to answer potential questions such as:
The hospital's legal and/or training departments should participate in developing appropriate responses to the above or similar questions. The registrar also should be provided with sample responses to use once a patient's financial situation is assessed, depending on the scenario (see exhibit).
By identifying measurable key performance indicators (KPIs), a hospital can determine the value of a new solution. KPIs that should be measured include:
A self-pay solution is useful only if it can fulfill all of the identified KPIs. Moreover, these KPIs should be revamped annually to ensure that
continuous improvement targets are established for the staff's use of the solution.
In a recent proof-of-concept study, one hospital found that it did not have the correct name, address, or social security information on file for 31 percent of its total population. Using a self-pay solution, the hospital's registrars began to ask patients additional questions, greatly improving the quality of patient information within the system. The benefits of the improved patient information flowed down to other areas of the revenue cycle, improving collections and reducing returned mail processing.
Using the self-pay solution, that same hospital also discovered that 75 percent of its population could have qualified for Medicaid or charity assistance. By alerting financial counselors to this information, the counselors could fast-track eligible patients for interviews and have them enrolled in these programs, enhancing the hospital's community commitment and greatly improving Medicaid reimbursement.
No doubt that achieving a high ROI for the implementation of a self-pay solution is the end-state objective of such a solution. But such success depends upon effective preparation, organizational commitment, and process improvement. Other critical elements are buy-in from the C-suite, in-depth gap analysis and research, and an effective change management plan that includes consistent, cross-functional, and departmental training. Moreover, a revenue cycle self-pay solution can remain an integral part of a hospital's financial administration department only as long as the organization constantly measures its performance against objectives and previous performance and sets ongoing improvement targets. The commitment needed to meet all of these requirements for success is exactly that same level of commitment that a hospital must always have to continue performing at the highest level in the midst of challenging new rules and regulations and other dynamic change in the healthcare environment.

The Blog Azeroth shared topic for July 2 – July 8 is:
What is the nicest thing another player has ever done for you in-game?
This was another of my topic ideas and unlike last week's topic I had something in mind before I suggested it.
I played WoW for a long time as a solo player. I had three characters capped at 60 when Burning Crusade came out, but I'd never even ran an instance, much less done a raid. Famously, I had no idea my first character, a human paladin, had a "bubble" — the spell seemed useless to me because it only lasted a few seconds. It was a real life friend that I'd introduced to the game who actually told me what I needed to do if I wanted to experience more.
I re-rolled and prepared a new character (the shadow priest who remains my main today) for raiding. During that process, I just luckily joined a very large social guild and actually made friends. I met people I would have never ran across in real life from all over the globe. And we raided Karazhan — I thought I was a real player then.
One of the people we raided with was a prot warrior with a gruff exterior. Turns out he had a heart of gold. As the expansion progressed I went back to my older characters to level them to 70, and decided to try tanking on my warrior. My prot warrior guild friend crafted me gear, got into vent to help me set my UI and rotation, quite literally held my clueless hand through the process of what to do.
Turns out I'm not cut out to tank, not by a mile. And honestly, I can't explain why the kindness of this guild-mate struck me so, but it did. After playing solo for so long he opened my eyes to the fact that we can do more together than alone. And that insight has far outlasted anytime I spent tanking.

Superfund Program:
Breakdown of Appropriations Data
GAO-04-787R: Published: May 14, 2004. Publicly Released: May 21, 2004.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-6225
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
On February 18, 2004, we issued a report updating the appropriations and expenditure data for the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Superfund program that we included in our July 2003 report on the status of the program. To supplement this information, Congress requested that we provide a breakdown of the appropriations data, showing the amounts for the Superfund program, amounts designated for the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), and the Brownfields program. Superfund program operations are funded by appropriations from the general revenue fund and the Superfund trust fund. Historically, a tax on crude oil and certain chemicals and an environmental tax on corporations were the primary sources of revenues for the trust fund; however, the authority for these taxes expired in 1995. The trust fund continues to receive revenues in the form of cost recoveries, interest on the fund balance, fines and penalties, and general revenue fund appropriations that supplement the trust fund balance.
Total Superfund program appropriations decreased from fiscal year 1993 to fiscal year 2004, in constant 2003 dollars, from $1,884 million to $1,242 million. Since fiscal year 2000, the Superfund program has increasingly relied on revenue from general revenue fund appropriations. In fiscal year 2004, the appropriations form the general fund was the only source of funds for the program. The net Superfund program appropriations--excluding the amounts for ATSDR, NIEHS, and the Brownfields program--decreased from $1,757 million to $1,242 million, in constant 2003 dollars, from fiscal year 1993 to fiscal year 2004.

What is Sharbat?
Sharbat is an aromatic syrup that is diluted with water and served over ice
Sharbat is a syrup made from fruits and/or extracts of flowers and herbs. The syrup is diluted with water and served with ice. Some of the Sharbat may not be diluted in water, for Falooda rose syrup is diluted in evaporated milk. The Sharbat may be used to pour over desserts.
In the olden days, the sugar cane juice was boiled and reduced to make cane syrup. The essence called 'Arak' of flowers was added to cane syrup. Choice for flower essence were: Gulab (Rose), Saffron, Gurhal (Hibiscus) , Khus (Vetiver Grass), Kewra (screw-pine). You can make 'simple syrup' by cooking water and sugar, then add the essence. In United States, you can use corn syrup.
The syrup is diluted in water, milk, or evaporated milk. The Basil seeds (Tukmaria seeds, also known as Subza seeds, or seeds of Holy Tulsi) may be presoaked in water and added to any of the diluted syrups for added character. It is almost a must for rose syrup as demonstrated in Falooda Recipe.
In the restaurants, a combination of syrups is used. For example Rose, Khus, and Kewra may be added together to Rabri (Evaporated milk). Rose will be the primary fragrance, Kewra will make it seem sweeter, Khus will make the fragrance linger longer.
The first commercial success of Sharbat was 'Sharbat Rooh Afza' manufactured by 'Hamdard Laboratories'.
Up to 1950s, Sharbat were the preferred beverage for poor and rich, and then came the Coca Cola, rest is history.
The Sherbet sold in United States is a frozen cooler, it is not a Sharbat.

HOUSE TOUR: Coldplay's Jonny Buckland at Home
Coldplay guitarist Jonny Buckland brings a touch of rock-and-roll spirit to his family's Manhattan loft, enlisting a young design firm that loves to paint it black
By Nancy Hass
Their loft, in a 19th-century Romanesque Revival building on Astor Place, near the epicenter of Greenwich Village, is a home base for them when Buckland is working in the U.S. The couple spend most of their time in the tony Belsize Park area of London, but they come stateside several times a year, often staying in the apartment for a month or more. "We wanted it to be bright and happy for the kids and calming for us," says Chloe, who grew up in England but spent a great deal of her childhood in Jamaica, where her mother's family has lived for generations.

Valve has announced that Steam Trading is no longer in beta and has been officially released allowing gamers to swap in-game items and indeed games via the new platform.
"The addition of Steam Trading is the latest example of how Steam continues to evolve with new features and functions developed based upon feedback," said Valve's director of business development, Jason Holtman.
"We look forward to seeing how gamers and developers have fun and move this functionality forward."
The scheme has been a big hit with Team Fortress 2 players who have been trading hats, weapons and other items for real games over the previous four weeks. During the beta over 1 million items and game gifts were traded.
And we all should expect this to continue with third party games joining the scheme as well. Spiral Knights will be the first non-Valve game to support the Steam Trading functionality and support for the new store has been added to the Steamworks SDK.
So the next time you craft in Team Fortress 2, don't scrap that rare weapon as you never know what it might fetch in Steam's auction house. You might even get a game out of it!

As this issue of the Quarterly shows, research on the U.S. Congress continues to dominate legislative studies by American political scientists. But we can say about the study of congressional politics what Kenneth Shepsle wrote about the study of American politics generally, namely that it ōhas served the wider political science community by forging scientific tools and providing a laboratory in which they are tested, perfected, and prepared for exportö (2002, 388). The analysis of congressional roll calls is a case in point. Roll-call analysis has a long history in American legislative research and has been continuously perfected both conceptually and methodologically, thereby becoming increasingly adaptable to research on other legislatures. The first article in this issue is an example. Jason M. Roberts explores the effect of the specific rules and strategies governing voting in each chamber of Congress on the observed voting record of members. Specifically, he shows that the composition of the voting record is affected by rules of procedure, by party control of the agenda, and by the practices of party leaders. Therefore, the inferences drawn from the roll-call record must take account of the context in which the record has been developed. Roberts cautions that ōdespite considerable advances in the statistical analysis of roll-call data, proper interpretation of the data remains as difficult as ever.ö What is true when comparing the record in one house of Congress with the record in the other, or the record at one time with the record in another, is true in spades when research compares roll calls across the U.S. states or across legislatures in different countries.
One aspect of the exceptionalism of the U.S. Congress is the high reelection rate of incumbents. Until recently most research on this phenomenon tried to explain it by an analysis of the factors influencing constituentsÆ voting behavior. Instead, Scott J. Basinger and Michael J. Ensley examine the influence of the decisions of elites. Is the political experience of a challenger and the ability of that challenger to raise campaign funds an independent influence on the prospect of defeating an incumbent? Or is variance in candidate experience and fund-raising ability itself influenced by electoral tides? To sort out these influences, the authors develop a mathematical model that tests three contending theories of how challenger experience affects the outcome of congressional elections. Their data covers U.S. House elections from 1980 to 2000, with measures of the experience of challengers, challenger spending, incumbentsÆ spending, district partisanship, and incumbent ideology. They find that the experience of challengers does contribute to the prospect of their success but that it is the electoral vulnerability of an incumbent that attracts an experienced challenger in the first place. Therefore, challenger experience is not an influence on election outcomes independent of the national partisan tide, or an incumbentÆs voting record, or a districtÆs partisan complexion. However, the superior campaign fund-raising ability of experienced challengers does have an independent effect on the prospect of defeating an incumbent. The article takes us a step closer to understanding the interactive influence of mass publics and political elites on congressional elections.
The U.S. Congress is also exceptional among the worldÆs legislatures in its presumption that since the federal bureaucracy is its creation, it should be subject to extensive congressional oversight and control. Government officialdom has never had the legitimacy in the United States that it has in the political systems of Europe. The effectiveness of CongressÆs control has long been the subject of a literature using concepts derived from economics to explore how Congress as ōprincipalö can keep control over administrators as its ōagents.ö Jason A. MacDonald investigates how the design of administrative agencies affects the effectiveness of its control. He deals with the problem of measuring the difference between legislative intent and policy administration by relying on interviews with members of the staffs of 15 Senate and House committees in the years 2000 and 2001. He finds that CongressÆs propensity to impose structural constraints on delegated authority depends on the level of executive-legislative policy disagreement, on the level of disagreement between Congress and the relevant agency, and on the strength of interest group opposition to the policy. His article contributes new insights into the conditional influence that institutional design imposes on the administration of policy.
The study of representation is central to many aspects of legislative research. Changes in the composition of legislatures inevitably raise questions about the effect of such changes on representation. In the United States, there has been a substantial increase in the proportion of blacks and women in Congress. Two articles in this issue consider the impact of this change on legislative activity. Katrina L. Gamble looks at the committee work of African American members of the U.S. House. She gathered data on the participation of these members in three committees during the important committee sessions devoted to the markup of bills in 2001¢02. She finds confirmation of her expectation that black members are more active than their white colleagues on policies that are important to black interests, even controlling for party and leadership positions. But she also finds unexpectedly that black members are more active than whites on other issues as well, perhaps because of their sense of responsibility for the interests of other minorities. Her research identifies an aspect of black representation in Congress that is not revealed by a simple roll-call analysis of the votes of black members.
There has been a good deal of attention to the consequence of the increase in the number of women in state legislatures in the United States, both for descriptive representation and for legislative activity. The article by Michelle A. Barnello and Kathleen A. Bratton offers some new data and an entirely new insight into that subject. The authors have examined bill sponsorship in 15 state legislatures in the year 2001 to compare the factors that influence male as well as female legislators to introduce bills on womenÆs issues. They reach a number of nuanced conclusions. Younger men, more educated men, married men with children, African American men, and men serving on committees whose jurisdiction includes womenÆs issues are more likely than other men to sponsor bills on such issues. Party control of the legislature and the proportion of women do not seem to have an influence although women retain the lead in sponsoring legislation specifically concerned with womenÆs health. The authors suggest that it is changes in society rather than within the legislature that spur legislation on womenÆs issues.
The nonpartisan legislature of Nebraska has always interested legislative scholars, since it provides a benchmark by which to measure the effect of partisanship on legislative behavior. Brian F. Schaffner inquires into the effect of partisanship on the representativeness of legislative committees by comparing the nonpartisan Nebraska legislature with the partisan legislatures of Iowa and Kansas. He provides evidence that the committees in Iowa and Kansas are more clearly representative of their parent chambers ideologically, measured by the roll-call voting records of members, than are the committees in Nebraska. When legislative conflict reflects partisan divisions and committees are controlled by the majority party, committees are bound to represent the chamber. Where that is not the case, committees may go their own way and focus on the interests of their particular members. SchaffnerÆs analysis is an example of the value of testing generalizations about legislatures by comparative research, which an exclusive emphasis on the U.S. Congress precludes.

November 1, 2012 — On November 9, in honor of National Radiologic Technology week, students in the Radiologic Technology Program hosted a poster presentation in the lobby of the New College Building. The students' posters reflected this year's theme, "It's What Inside That Counts," and underscored the importance of radiation therapy professionals and medical imaging. Each individual poster had a unique approach or idea relating to radiology, with topics ranging from "sea shells and skeletons found at the beach" to "UV radiation." In addition to their presentations, the event also featured a "spin to win" wheel and x-ray images of common medial occurrences, such as twins in the womb.

Four Least-Likely Saviors in History
Subscribe to our newsletter
Jesus Christ is undoubtedly the most important figure in human history. You can try to argue it all you want, but the facts are against you on this one. No one else has inspired as many religious movements, wars, peace offerings or terrible pop songs as Jesus. The name carries some weight. And sure, Jimi Hendrix can play a mean guitar, but Jesus could turn that guitar into a bass guitar. Think about that.
Naturally, some people would want to try to ride the Christ's coattails by claiming to be Him. Of course, it's a tough standard to live up to, as these stories show us.
John Thom (1799 – 1838)
The Man:
At a young age, Thom faced a crossroads in his life; he could either follow in the footsteps of his father and become a well respected politician, or he could choose his mother's unique path and die in an insane asylum. Not one to disappoint, he dabbled in both.
Sadly, politics wasn't in the cards for Thom. He lost the Canterbury's parliamentary seat before sporting a red cape, sword and changing his name to Count Moses Rosechild. Surprisingly, the Count lost his second attempt at the seat, most likely because the people of Canterbury weren't ready to be represented by a flamboyant swordsman. After a stint in prison, however, the Count had a revelation: he was no politician. He was Jesus Christ. Once he was reunited with sweet lady freedom, Thom began spreading his message of salvation. He also claimed his sword was Excalibur because the costume shop he bought it from wouldn't accept returns.
The Problem:
The basis of Thom's sermons was his opposition of the Poor Law Act, which was forcing people off of their property and farmers out of their fields. As he gained popularity he rallied a group of 100 followers and lead a protest near Boughton. Several of his protesters, however, were employed workers who had left their positions to join the movement. When a constable arrived to correct the situation he and Thom had a bit of a tiff: the constable claimed they were breaking the law and Thom rebutted by shooting him dead, forever answering the question "What would Jesus do?"
Many of his followers, a bit freaked out by the whole murder thing, abandoned Thom. Less than half stayed, believing that their faith in him made them impervious to man-made weapons and, should Thom encounter more constables, he could put his hands together and slay 10,000 men. There couldn't possibly be that many constables anyway, so they decided to play the odds continued to protest. The next day 100 soldiers surrounded Thom and his group in the Dunkirk woods, demanding his surrender. Outnumbered, Thom asserted he was Jesus Christ by shooting and killing their Lieutenant before being killed himself. It's not known if he managed his infamous Killer Clap before shuffling off of this mortal coil but given that there aren't 10,000 unmarked graves in the Dunkirk woods it's safe to assume that no, no he didn't.
Despite the fact that he killed two men in cold blood (a very un-Christ like thing to do), there was still a fear that maybe, just maybe he was the Christ. His coroner, hearing the rumor he would rise three days after death, ordered that his heart be removed, perhaps thinking that Jesus and vampires share the same weakness. It's never been made clear if this act was carried out out of fear or outlandish dickery. Thom never rose from the grave and his followers went back to their lives of being horribly gullible.
Hong Xiuquan (1814 – 1861)
The Man:
Pop quiz: what's crazier than claiming to be Jesus Christ? Answer: claiming to be the brother of Jesus Christ.
After failing a series of imperial examinations, Hong had a bit of a nervous breakdown. During this time he had a series of visions (a sure sign of wonderful things to come). Among these visions he dreamed that angels took him to heaven, where a man with a golden beard handed him a a sword and a seal to purify China (another sure sign of wonderful things to come). After several years of soul searching Hong interpreted this to mean that his father God and his broseph Jesus wanted him to rid the world of demons. His relatives, unable to verify his claims with Wikipedia, decided he was on the level and helped him in his quest to convert an entire country to Christianity. Yeah, you know this isn't going to end well.
The Problem:
After traveling to a series of small villages and destroying their idols, Hong and his posse made camp in Guangxi. The minority population was more receptive to the idea of Jesus' brother wanting them to smash tiny Buddha statues and joined the cause. Hong, not wanting to skip out on awesome heavy-handed symbolism, requested a blacksmith to forge two massive swords for the purpose of demon-slaying. Hong traveled about the country converting minority citizens to his cause, promising equality among classes and sexes alike, which all sounds good on paper, right?
Now 30,000 strong and fronted by an apparent demon slayer, government forces finally decided to do something about this group and attempt an attack. They were, of course, thwarted, and with a single victory under his belt Hong declared his group the Heavenly Kingdom of Trancendence Peace. Somewhere on his holy demon-slaying quest Hong forgot that the Chinese army doesn't care for losing all that much. A series of counter attacks later and the Taiping Rebellion was born.
Crack open any Bible and skim through the New Testament. You can argue Jesus wasn't a prophet, but the dude certainly saw things coming. His betrayal? Check. His crucifixion. Oh yeah. His rise from the grave? Never stopped talking about it. Now if someone were to claim to be the brother of Christ, it's assumed some of that would rub off on them, right? Apparently, that's not the case. Rather than surrender to the vastly superior force, Hong went forward with the rebellion gung-ho positive he would win. He didn't. What's more, over 25,000,000 people died in the ensuing battles. Of course, Hong wasn't among them. He died of illness as a result of eating manna because he believed the Bibe commanded him to do so. At the end of his life, Hong had gotten exactly no good advice from God.
All that trouble and he never even got to slay any demons.

The light, the flora, the temperature, the breeze, the model (Ashley), the general mood that day–these all came together for our shoot last Saturday. The light was so soft and lovely as we headed for our cars, that we decided to shoot Quince-style the Cable-y Cowl, an Osprey piece featured in Ann Budd's latest book from Interweave Press, Scarf Style Two. The cowl is worked in color Lichen in a textural pattern that waves along in ribs and garter stitch on a background of reverse stockinette stitch.
Ann's book gives patterns for 26 scarf/cowl/shawl patterns, including pieces by Jared Flood, Mags Kandis, Olga Buraya-Kefelian, Katherine Alexander, Nancy Marchant, and Courtney Kelly. The collection is eclectic and interesting. My favorites, if I had to choose, would be Duplex, a clever directional piece by Laura Nelkin, Tubular Fair Isle, a stunning color study by Deborah Newton, Ann's own Two-Tone Brioche cowl, and a traditional shawl that I especially love, Ilme's Autumn Triangle, designed by Nancy Bush.
Cowls. I thought they might be done. But I've changed my mind. Why not keep them going forever? So practical when you think about it. Wear them loose for a warm back neck, wrap them round the head for more warmth and a cozy spot to bury the nose when cold winds blow. Knit them in the round if you go edge to edge, or lengthwise, like Cable-y, and graft or sew the ends together. No ends to flop around and unravel from the neck. No ends to curl. And wrong sides become interesting textures when wrapped and juxtaposed with the reverse.
So, cowls forever, I say.

Lindsay & Vince
Spending much of their time in Whistler, Lindsay and Vince knew they wanted to bring their family and friends together for a celebration surrounded by the beauty of the mountains and the lake in a place they love most. The vision for the wedding was to create an elegant, natural and intimate affair that enhanced the stunning environment. The colour scheme was inspired by the gorgeous colour of the alpine lake and the wildflowers in the surrounding meadows. And because no great dance party happens in Whistler without them, the evening party kicked off to the sweet sounds of the Hairfarmers.

TROY, N.Y.-- Summer break is officially over, but students in one class at Troy High School are going to be starting the school year on a high note.
State Education Commissioner, Dr. John King will be joining the school's Pathways in Technology inaugural class Thursday afternoon.
The district is one of only 16 in the state to receive a $2.6 million NYS P-Tech grant, through which, each participating student will earn an associates degree at HVCC.
While many hot topics like the Common Core are still on people's minds, Dr. King's visit will highlight that class, and the school year ahead.
In November, it will be up to voters to decide whether to authorize the New York Bonds for School Technology Act.
The $2 billion bond would be dispersed to districts across the state to buy things like interactive white boards and tablets, and to update school security features.
Troy Middle School opened doors last year already featuring many of those tools.
After local voters saw the benefits of having these tools at students finger tips, a Capital Project addressing the entire district was voted on. "Thank you to our voters last December they passed and $8.4 million bond vote which is to give the updates in this building district-wide in all of our buildings, so the instructional technology you see here will be in classroom and every building in this district," said Troy School District superintendent John Carmello.
If the Smart Schools Bond Act passes in November, schools like Troy that already have their own capital projects in the works, will be able to use the state money to alleviate tax payer costs.

Bunt tournament brings out Carlos Marmol's trash talk
BY GORDON WITTENMYER firstname.lastname@example.com February 27, 2012 7:42PM
Updated: March 29, 2012 8:15AM
MESA, Ariz. — Closer Carlos Marmol looked strange Monday as he walked between practice fields carrying his dark-stained maple bat like he knew what to do with it.
''Garza, get ready to be losing!'' Marmol yelled more than once to right-hander Matt Garza, his first-round opponent in the Cubs' bunt tournament.
The schedule Monday featured some of the marquee matchups of the first round, including Marmol's upset of Garza. Marmol trash-talked on each pitch.
Pitcher's bracket favorite Ryan Dempster breezed past Trever Miller, and Marlon Byrd upset Reed Johnson. Geovany Soto, David DeJesus and Jeff Baker also won their matches.
But the finish of the tournament so far was manager Dale Sveum — entered only as a way to get the field to an even 64 — beating Kerry Wood when Wood's final bunt rolled an inch off the 40-point line and into the 20-point box. That left him 10 points short.
''I kind of got lucky the grass was growing the other way,'' said Sveum, who advanced to face Dempster. ''I thought I was done. I was going over to shake his hand.''
The serious part of the tournament includes the chemistry-building that players already say is happening.
And, Sveum said, ''It's a fact that this tournament shows you guys that like to compete. You get a feeling of the guys bearing down and competing and some guys that aren't competing as well. You get to know somebody a little bit through this tournament.''
Rotation talk
Sveum said he's not ready to name his Opening Day starter, and he has arranged Dempster and Garza in the spring rotation to have the choice of aligning either one with the April 5 opener against the Washington Nationals.
Rodrigo Lopez will start the spring opener Sunday, with Dempster and Garza going Monday and Tuesday, respectively. If Garza pitches every fifth day without interruption, then his natural day would land April 5. If everybody were to get an extra day because of the March 21 day off, then Dempster would land April 5.
''It's set up where we're good with whatever we decide,'' Sveum said. ''We won't make that decision until about the middle of spring.''
Castro scare
Wood sent a chill up the Cubs' collective spine when he hit shortstop Starlin Castro on the right forearm with a batting-practice pitch.
Castro, who finished all his scheduled work, said he was fine despite sporting a sizable welt more than an hour later. No X-rays were necessary.
''It sounded a little scarier [than it was],'' Sveum said.
Beer here?
In light of Theo Epstein's old team, the Boston Red Sox, banning alcohol in the clubhouse, Sveum said the Cubs haven't discussed such a policy.

Access to facilities at work
Your employer must avoid unlawful discrimination in allowing you access to facilities at work.
Use the list in avoiding direct and indirect discrimination to make sure you know what equality law says your employer must do to avoid unlawful discrimination. (no link provided)
This does not stop your employer giving you and other workers different levels of access to facilities for a reason unrelated to any protected characteristic, such as seniority within an organisation or the nature of the job you are doing.
However, your employer needs to make sure that their rules about who has access to what facilities are not in themselves unlawfully discriminatory.
For example:
An employer gives a mobile phone to use for work calls to employees who have to travel a lot for work. However, phones are only given to employees who work full-time. This has a worse impact on women who are more likely to work part-time because they are combining childcare responsibilities with their paid employment. Unless the employer can objectively justify restricting the access to this particular facility in this way, this is likely to be indirect discrimination because of sex.
