Online Medicare tool helps you inspect potential nursing homes
Permanent link
NEW YORK (9/18/12)--Medicare has revamped its online tool to help you inspect, compare, and get guidance when choosing a nursing home for your loved one (
New York Times
Sept. 6).
The new, unbiased, user-friendly version of Nursing Home Compare became available in July. The tool, part of Medicare.gov, provides full text reports from nursing home inspectors. Visit Medicare.gov and search for "nursing home compare." Type in your ZIP code and click "Show Nursing Homes" to see a table of all facilities that are certified to participate in Medicare or Medicaid within a radius of your choice--between one and 100 miles.
A star rating system lets you quickly compare distance, overall ratings, health inspections, staffing and quality ratings among the facilities in your area. You can limit your parameters in one or more ways, for example, by searching for nursing homes that are within a continuing-care retirement community. Click the check boxes for as many as three facilities at a time to compare them side by side.
Click on the name of any facility and get additional information such as the number of certified beds. The site is easy to navigate in order to obtain full reports about health inspections, complaints, staffing, penalties, quality measures and so forth.
Nursing Home Compare is a helpful tool to carefully consider and share with your doctor or other health-care providers. More important: Once you've selected the nursing homes you want to consider, visit each to ask questions, talk with residents and staff (not just the marketing department), observe how staff interacts with residents, and inspect the latest resident and staff survey results.

Keep up with Medicaid proposed changes requirements
Permanent link
RICHMOND, Va. (9/18/12)--Medicare has drawn a lot of attention in recent political campaigns, but if you're one of millions of seniors who fear long-term care needs will outlast resources, pay close attention to the details about Medicaid as well (
Richmond Times-Dispatch
Sept. 9).
Although the eligibility requirements to get Medicaid coverage for nursing-home care vary by state, knowing what it takes to qualify in general today will help you shed clarity on proposed and ongoing changes in the program:
Most states require that you have no more than about $2,000 in assets such as cash, savings, investments, or other financial resources that can be turned into cash. This does not include your home--if, in most states, it's valued at less than $525,000. Nor does it include your personal possessions and household goods, one vehicle, prepaid funeral plans, and a small amount of life insurance.
If, after your nursing home stay, you can't return to your home, Medicaid can take the proceeds of your house to help reimburse nursing home costs unless your spouse or other dependent relative lives in the home.
Once you qualify, you must turn over to Medicaid almost all sources of income, such as Social Security and pension checks, to pay for your care.
Just in case you wonder about giving away assets to qualify faster, Medicaid officials will look at your financial records for the past five years to find suspicious asset transfers.
If you enter a nursing home and your spouse remains at home, Medicaid has special rules allowing your healthy spouse to keep half of your joint assets up to about $114,000. That amount varies state by state. The healthy spouse also may keep the house, furniture, household goods, and one automobile, as well as a portion of your joint monthly income.
Call your local Medicaid office (call 800-633-4227 for local contact information) or contact a local State Health Insurance Assistance Program counselor (shiptalk.org or 800-677-1116) for eligibility details.

Houston in, Peppers out: Bears shake it up at defensive end

Out with the old and expensive and in with the new and emerging. It's a way of life in the NFL, and the Bears are no exception.
And it all unfolded as part of general manager Phil Emery's overhauling of the Bears' defense after an awful 2013 season.
After being spurned by Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett, the Bears signed former Raiders defensive end Lamarr Houston to a five-year, $35 million deal Tuesday. Of course, that meant the expected end of the Julius Peppers era with the Bears. He was released after four seasons with the team.
"We appreciate Julius' contributions to the Bears over the last four years," Emery said in a statement. "He was a leader on our defense, starting every game since coming to Chicago."
The defense still will rely on linebacker Lance Briggs, but the feel will never be the same as the changes keep coming. It will have a new look with Houston and defensive tackle Jeremiah Ratliff, who will be around for the whole season, and possibly without cornerback Charles Tillman and defensive tackle Henry Melton, who could be gone in free agency.
Middle linebacker D.J. Williams (one-year contract) also re-signed with Bears, and safety Ryan Mundy was added to the secondary with a two-year deal.
Adding Houston is important for a defense that allowed a league-worst 161.4 rushing yards per game and was tied for the fewest sacks last season.
Houston wasn't overly productive for the Raiders in his first four seasons — he only has 16 career sacks — but he can play on the edge and inside and is a noted run-stopper at 6-3, 300 pounds.
And he might be on the rise.
Houston, 26, is coming off his best season with career highs in tackles (69), sacks (six) and forced fumbles (two). He also had 10 tackles for loss and a fumble recovery. His six sacks led the Raiders.
Of course, he didn't come cheap. According to a source, Houston is guaranteed $14.9 million. That includes a $4.95 million signing bonus and a $3 million roster bonus for 2014.
There also is $250,000 (yearly $50,000 increments) that can be earned through workout obligations. As far as his roster bonus, $1 million is paid on the third day of the league year, while the remaining amount is on a per-game basis ($125,000).
Houston's base salary is $1 million for 2014, $5.95 million for 2015, 2016 and 2017 and $7.95 million in 2018. With bonuses included, his total cost is $9 million in 2014.
To offset those costs, Peppers, who was on the trading block before free agency, had to go.
Peppers was to have roughly an $18.2 million cap hit for 2014. Cutting Peppers still leaves $8.36 million in dead money on the Bears' books, but the benefits were clear: Letting him go gave them approximately $9.8 million in additional cap space.
Peppers had two years left on a six-year, $84 million ($42 million guaranteed) deal signed in 2010. In his four seasons with the Bears, Peppers started 64 games and had 38 sacks, three interceptions, nine forced fumbles and seven fumble recoveries.
"I want to thank the Bears organization, my teammates and the city of Chicago for a great experience," Peppers said in a statement released through ESPN. "I have been focusing my time on preparing myself for next season and am looking forward to continuing my NFL career."

Perfect Place!
We spent the week at this roomy, clean, and comfortable rental property while visiting L.A. in October. Not only was it a central location, with easy access to the highway system, but it was in North Hollywood (NoHo) where there are some great venues, including food (check out Pitfire). The metro is a 10ish minute walk as well. The owner and property caretaker were both so wonderful to us while we scouted for our future cross-country move. Highly recommend this if you are looking to see L.A. and surrounding areas, including the beaches. We went EVERYWHERE and didn't over-mileage on the rental car.
Spacious condo, great location
Our extended family gathered in LA to attend our son's wedding and needed a place that was large enough to sleep 8 - 2 couples and 4 individuals - and be a 'home base' for the preparations as well as a little sightseeing. This condo met all our needs, being both spacious and convenient to highways. We found the property description to be accurate - 2 very large bedrooms, 1 with a walk-in closet, 2 bathrooms, 2 beds and a dresser in the loft and 2 futon / couches in the living room. The kitchen is narrow but well equipped with large, newer appliances and plenty of cooking and serving items, and we used it alot. There are only 4 dining room chairs, though, so we had to be a little creative when it came to eating meals together. The building itself is on a very busy main street opposite a large community park, so the 2 parking spots in the secure garage are invaluable! We did find it quite challenging to coordinate the coming and going of 2 groups of people & cars, though, as you cannot get in or out of the garage without a controller, and there is only 1, but we were able to work it out. This unit is on the upper level of a nicely maintained building and requires 2 steep, long stairways to access it. There are many interesting restaurant options in the Noho district, about a 5-minute walk from the condo, and a Ralph's supermarket is a short drive away as well. The owner was very easy to work with, leaves a notebook filled with helpful info for guests, and responded to our inquiries quickly. We would definitely stay here again on a future visit to LA.
Perfect place to Stay!!!
The property was very clean and provided everything we needed. The owner was very pleasant and had pride of ownership. The location is amazing just across a park for morning jog and 24 hour fitness down the street. Many hip restaurants are walking distance as well as a grocery store. We had a car, but with metro down the street and everything close by, we could have done without. Wanted to stay there longer, but will be back for sure.

text: With ''edgy'' songs like ''Do You Want Me?'' ''Weird,'' and ''Hide Away,'' Disney's teen princess Hilary Duff announces on her self-titled album she's a complicated rock & roll adolescent on the order of Avril and Ashlee. Uh-huh. And Betty from the Archie comics is Patti Smith. The middle-school-poetry lyrics may strike a chord, but Duff's voice, a tiny thing that continues to lack a shred of musical personality, is buried under layers of generic cheese arrangements. Real bad stuff.

Scene Profiles| Sheila Nortley – Film Producer, Zion0
Earlier on in the week, we spoke to Shomari Brown, lead actor in soon-to-be-released film 'Zion'.
'Yemani is a beautiful young woman with the weight of the world on her shoulders. She is heavily pregnant, alone and dealing with many deep emotional scars, yet hope comes to her from an unlikely source: a young and charismatic teenager who she meets coincidentally. His name is Zion. Intrigued by his mentality and nonchalance about his circumstance, every maternal instinct in her compels her towards him and a deep and beautiful friendship emerges. Will she be able to save him from the inevitable?'
Now Scene profiles award-winning producer of Zion, the lovely Sheila Nortley to find more about the film as well as her career as a producer.
On first look, some people might think 'Zion' is another black gang/roadman film – can you tell us what Zion is about and how it is not what some people may think?
Good question. I can't emphasize enough the fact that 'Zion' is not a hood film. The aim of the film is to basically draw attention to an issue which is endemic in our society. Sometimes the media want to talk about it on the news as some kind of new phenomenon. Sometimes they don't. Sometimes, a lot of black blood is spilt and they don't want to talk about it on the news. Why should they? Black people only make up 2% of the population in the UK, so it's our responsibility, my responsibility as a film producer. I think it's an obligation for me to tell a story that is happening, that is really real. The realness of it is that the film was inspired by a conversation I had with a young man I met in the park; it was a similar conversation to a scene in 'Zion' where the two lead characters in the film meet – Zion and Yemani – and, it's real. It's very very real. And it's something that… I'm tired of it being glamorized, I'm tired of it being ridiculed and laughed at and I'm even more tired of people saying 'Oh, I'm sick about hearing about it'. Until we DO something to at least reduce the numbers or try and understand why little boys are killing little boys and why little boys are going to prison before they can even finish puberty or even hit puberty, it's something that needs to be addressed in my opinion. 'Zion' is different in that it deals with a sense of community and the fact that we are all involved, the fact that one decision that a young person makes affects us all. You personally may not be involved in violence or crime, but your brother might, or your cousin might, or your nephew might. And if you don't know anyone who could possibly be involved in violence, stray bullets do not discriminate – anyone can be a victim. This is children handling guns and knives with little respect for the value of human life. So 'Zion' is a very emotive film and it touches on a few other issues we have in our community too.
What has the response been so far when people have heard about the film or see the trailer?
The response so far has been really really good. We've had lots of support so far from people within the industry and from people who are just interested in watching a good film. It's quite scary for me – putting out a project like this. It's very risqué. For example, I chose to make the lead character, Yemani, a very flawed heroine. She says and does things that people will scowl at. She's not supposed to be perfect because she represents us – but despite her flaws and imperfects she is able to love the 'unlovable'. These are the messages I hope people will respond warmly to, if they are open to looking beyond the surface.
Scene Profiles: Shomari Brown – Male Lead Actor in 'Zion'0
December 8th sees the release of 'Zion', a new film by award-winning film producer Sheila Na'imah Nortley.
'Yemani is a beautiful young woman with the weight of the world on her shoulders. She is heavily pregnant, alone and dealing with many deep emotional scars, yet hope comes to her from an unlikely source: a young and charismatic teenager who she meets coincidentally. His name is Zion. Intrigued by his mentality and nonchalance about his circumstance, every maternal instinct in her compels her towards him and a deep and beautiful friendship emerges. Will she be able to save him from the inevitable?'
Starring Kyla Frye, Shomari Brown, Michael Raphael Davies, Vanessa Vanderpuye, Ashley Walters and Aml Ameen
'Zion' was inspired by reality in many ways. Many argue that the issue of violence amongst black youth is saturated in black british cinema. We disagree. There is a story that needs to be told; a reality that is being lived by some of our young generation. It doesn't need to be glamourized or sensationalized. It doesn't need to be exploited, misunderstood, reinterpretated and sold back to us. It definately doesn't need to be mocked and ridiculed. The value of black life is depleting rapidly in our subconscious, and until we address the issue with sincerity, love and great care then our young people face a very dark and dire future. And in the event of their demise, we will be responsible. How can a kid turn into a killer without anyone noticing? Who forgot to tell that child that they are special and intelligent and beautiful?
We recently caught up with talented 18 year old actor Shomari Brown who plays the lead male character in the film.
You play the title character in 'Zion', what is your character like?
Zion, he's cool, he's confident, he's calculated and he's a straight talking character. Because he grew up in the care system with no family, Zion quickly came to the conclusion that no one will be there for him but himself…so it's Zion against the world!
Let's talk a little bit about Shomari – what inspired you to become an actor in the first place and what has been your experience in the industry so far?
I've always had an interest for acting since I was young (11-13). When I was in year 7, I was told I had a natural ability for acting and should take it up as one of my options in year 10 and so I did. So far my experience in the industry has been GREAT! I did a summer project with Immediate Theatre at the Hackney Empire which then led to the final call backs for Joe Cornish's film 'Attack The Block'. I did some extra work for Adam Deacon's film 'Everywhere & Nowhere' and also did extra work for Aml Ameen's film 'Drinks Drugs & KFC' (DDK), which is where I met Sheila Nortley who offered me the lead role in 'Zion'…I was over the moon!

Just 5K, 10K, and Half.
I have no desire to run any farther.
5k, 10k and HM. Might eventually want to do a marathon/triathlons.
I burp in parking garages to assert my dominance
i just raced to the kitchen and back.
quite proud of myself.
~~ * ~~
"In the end, these things matter most: How well did you love? How fully did you live? How deeply did you let go?" ~ the Buddha
Me too, although I do want to try a 50K.
5k, 8k, 10k, 15k, 1/2 marathon, and full marathon.
Come to the dark side of triathlon! We're running a novice tri training day on Saturday, always great fun and the people that do them then do go on to enter a triathlon.
Just trying to think of all mine before I get told to answer my own question:
And some odd distances in various relays for my running club.
I've run further, but my absolute favourite distance, always was and always will be, is the half marathon.
5K, 10K, Half, and full Marathons.
I'm of mixed feelings whether my favorite is the 10K or Half.
We have a few local shops that I have been tempted to check out...my main issue would be finding a place where I could learn/practicing correct swimming technique.
When I started I couldn't swim front crawl at all, so I got about 6 one to one sessions with a local swim coack. It wasn't that expensive and worth every penny to get the technique correct from the start. Bad habits in swimming are hard to unlearn. I was a blank canvas.
I've done a sprint tri, too! I loved it. I want to do it again this year but I am trying to figure out where to fit it in my already full training/racing schedule. After I run one or two more marathons I want to switch to triathlons full time.
Tot Trot (50 yards)
7 miler
The Running Time just did an article on the resurgence of the 10 mile race. I'd really like to give that a go.
10K, 15K, 1/2, full. What is crazy is I've never done a 5K race.
But I agree with KK, the 1/2 is my absolute favorite distance. It's all the fun of a full, with none of the suck.
mile, 5k (from a previous life when I did one season of high school track - I came in last in every race)
marathon (from my current incarnation of crazy running dude)
Upcoming: Knoxville Covenant Health HM, 29 March 2015
Bloomsday 12k
Recently Completed: Corinth Rotary 5k, 25:36
4 Bridges HM, 1:52:06
Sevierville HM, 2:02:13
5K,10K,15K, 25K, 30K, 20 Mile, 10Mile, Half Marathon, Full Marathon
1600m relay
14.2 mile
जय गुरुदेव ॐ
8 mile
Half marathon
52+ miles during a 24 hour run.
And I'll be doing a 25K next month
5K, 8K, 15K, HM,30K, and FM.
My second full marathon was supposed to be this Saturday
Boo injuries!
2014 Goal: Be a Beast. At all costs.
Americans are afraid of only one thing... inconvenience.
-Fed. Up 2014
1 mile, 2 mile, 5K, 4 mile, 8K, 10K, 10mile, 15K, HM, FM, Sprint tri, Olympic tri, IM, 24 hour.
Next Marathon: Eisenhower Marathon, Abilene Ks. 4/11/15
There were no HMs around here until last fall. Hope to do a 50 miler next year.

5k, 10K
5k up to 50 miles

Munchausen by Proxy abuse
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 11-05-2013 - 6:37pm
Hi everyone. I used to be a CL here at Ivillage. I'm back and looking for others who might have experienced Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy abuse. I didn't know until 3 years ago that my mom had this. She simulated astham attacks by making me inhale water and later would do things like push me down the staris and say I tripped.
So I'm looking for others who have had this kind of abuse. It often starts with sexual abuse in infancy and as a toddler or even being taught how to molest younger siblings. That's why I came here......I know some of you may have expereinced this type of abuse.
Being a survivor of MSbP abuse is very lonely. Not many of us out there. If you've been through this, I'd love to talk.
thank you.............Jenny
|Wed, 11-06-2013 - 8:34am
I didn't experience this kind of abuse but I believe a person I know did this to her sons. They are both adults now and a complete mess. Neither can hold a job or keep a relationship going and both have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
Do you speak to your mother? Have you ever discussed this with her? How did you find out about it?
|Thu, 11-07-2013 - 10:59am
Hi Jenny
I haven't experienced Munchausen by proxy but I am familiar with the disorder in a textbook sort of way. I also recall an episode of Law and Order SVU that also dealt with the subject matter. I know that knowledge and experience are two different things and I can understand wanting to connect with others who have had similar experiences.
Daily Strength has an online support group specifically for Munchausen by Proxy so that might be an option if you don't manage to connect with anyone through iVillage.
Please know that you can still post and get support here if you would like.

Specialty chemical company
Air Products & Chemicals Inc.
) announced that it has introduced its new Airase Structured
Siloxane Defoamer Line (SSDL Defoamers). These new defoamers
contain seven siloxane defoamers that are designed to deliver
optimal performance in water-based formulations compared to
conventional defoamers.
The Airase SSDL defoamers have improved pH stability and provide
outstanding stability and persistency for coatings and ink
formulations. They are also free from hazardous air pollutant
(HAP) and alkylphenol ethoxylate (APE) and do not involve
volatile organic compounds to formulations.
Therefore, these defoamers are ideally suited for paints and
coatings, colorants, inks, adhesives and other industrial
applications. Further, they are user friendly and deliver
consistent performance allowing the formulators to take a
systematic approach to defoamer selection.
Air Products provides atmospheric, process and specialty
gases; performance materials; equipment; and technology products.
Last month, the company released its fourth quarter and fiscal
2012 results. It logged adjusted earnings from continued
operations of $1.42 a share for the quarter ended September 30,
2012, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a couple of
Consolidated net income, as reported, plunged 57% year over
year to $138.7 million or 65 cents a share, pummeled by hefty
one-time charges. The company reported a profit of $324.8 million
or $1.51 a share a year ago.
Revenues rose 4% to $2,606 million, beating the Zacks
Consensus Estimate of $2,574 million. The revenue growth was
attributable to higher volumes in the Tonnage Gases, Equipment
and Energy, and Electronics and Performance Materials divisions
as well as sales increases due to acquisitions, partly offset by
the impact of unfavorable currency. The company witnessed
sluggish manufacturing activity in the quarter.
For fiscal 2012, adjusted earnings of $5.40 a share missed the
Zacks Consensus Estimate of $5.42 but exceeded the year-ago level
of $5.36. Sales for the year edged down 1% year over year to
$9,612 million, but beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $9,577
For fiscal 2013, Air Products plans to take a number of steps
including execution of its new Tonnage investments and sustained
improvement in its Electronics and Performance Materials unit to
attain better productivity. The company expects that its recent
strategic moves will act favorably for future growth and
profitability despite the weak macroeconomic backdrop.
The company anticipates earnings between $5.65 and $5.85 per
share for fiscal 2013. For the first quarter of fiscal 2013,
earnings are expected between $1.26 and $1.31 per share. Air
Products also expects capital expenditures between $2 billion and
$2.2 billion for the year.
Air Products, which competes with
Praxair Inc.

ASTM Letter Designations
Question: What do the letters at the beginning of an ASTM standard signify?
Answer: Every ASTM standard is identified by a unique designation. It includes a capital letter (A – H), followed by a serial number ranging from one to four digits, a dash, and finally the year of issue. For example, a common bolt specification is A449 – 07a, although when specified the standard's year designation is usually not included.
The alphabetical letters represent general classifications. Outlined under each classification are a number of standards for a variety of products, materials, testing processes, and many other topics.
General ASTM Classifications
- Ferrous Metals
- Nonferrous Metals
- Cementitious, Ceramic, Concrete, and Masonry Materials
- Miscellaneous Materials
- Miscellaneous Subjects
- Materials for Specific Applications
- Corrosion, Deterioration, and Degradation of Materials
- Joint Committee and District Recipients

Glitch prevents trade in over 200 stocks on the NYSE
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
November 13, 2012 9:14 AM EST
NYSE Euronext
There were no closing auctions in the affected stocks and a list of the official closing prices for the securities, based on the consolidated last sale, was distributed via email and NYSE's website.
The NYSE first alerted traders it was having problems with one of its cash equity matching engines at 9:38 a.m. and it said it would not publish quotes on a total of 216 stocks, including CVS Caremark Corp
Nasdaq OMX Group Inc
"Orders were coming in, but those who were issuing the orders were not getting their confirmations or their reports, so we felt it was best to zero it out, if you will, and then to suspend trading of those stocks on our market," said Rich Adamonis, an NYSE spokesman.
The NYSE said any open orders should be considered canceled.
Adamonis said the server issues were still being investigated at around 3 p.m., but added that they came as the stock symbols were being moved over to a new trading platform.
The NYSE said it "anticipates a normal trading day in all securities" on Tuesday.
The transatlantic exchange operator is in the process of moving all of its markets - including bonds, options, futures and cash equities - in the United States and Europe to a universal electronic trading platform.
The New York-based company's European markets have been fully integrated with the new system and the exchange is now in the process of moving over its roughly 3,800 U.S. cash equities issues to the new platform, with about 800 having migrated so far, Adamonis said.
The migration will continue to be rolled out through the rest of the year, he added.
NYSE shares closed up 1.4 percent at $23.26.

The psychology of real estate boils down to a very simple mantra: location, location, location; context is everything. The same seems to hold true for food, especially what and how much of it we eat.
For instance, we're all subject to what Brian Wansink calls "portion distortion." As the director of the Food and Brand Lab at Cornell University has demonstrated, we consume more food when it is served on a larger plate, in a bigger bowl, or in bulk packaging. And if it's labeled low-fat, we chow down even more—consuming, on average, 20 percent more calories than we would were it not so labeled.
Context is just as telling when it comes to that all-important piece of real estate known as the restaurant menu. A study published in the Journal of Consumer Research suggests that the mere presence of healthy offerings on a menu or on display in a restaurant or even in a vending machine can often be enough to vicariously satisfy our long-term health and nutrition goals—and trick our brains into allowing us to make more indulgent food selections, ones we would not otherwise make.

Parties offer a way for people to break away from the daily grind of work and become a bit more creative than usual. You can see this in the attention that many people pay to how they decorate a place for a party, or prepare the food, or even come up with some sort of costume. As with most things, technology allows people to do some interesting and crazy things, making parties more fun in the process, as well as more artistic.
Just think about the decorations and entertainment in some parties. Some people set up game consoles so that guests can entertain themselves by challenging each other to races or virtual games of tennis. Other people set up projectors connected to the internet, which allow people to post and view photos that people are taking at the party. When it comes to food, the internet is full of great design ideas for cakes, pastries and more, so that even people who don't see themselves as particularly creative can come up with cat cupcakes or puppy pastries. All you need is a quick trip to a cake supplies NZ store, and you have pretty much all the ingredients needed for food and sweets that are memorable.

A minor error in the references section in the originally published version of the editorial by Eysenbach (J Med Internet Res 2011;13[4]:e123) on the relationship between citations and tweetations has been corrected; in addition, references being part of the dataset are no longer cited as "references". The now corrected problem with the references was a "formatting/presentation" problem only and had no impact on the study findings. The originally published article stated correctly that all 55 articles published between issue 3/2009 and 2/2010 were included, but the cited references erroneously contained 12 additional references from issue 2/2009, which were not part of the analysis, for the reasons described in the article (sparse tweetations pre-issue 3/2009). In the corrected version we have not only removed these extra 12 references (31-42), but we also took the opportunity to move all other references of included articles (43-97) into a new Multimedia Appendix 2, no longer citing them in the "References" section. We now refer to them in the paper by article ID (last 4-digits of the DOI), where we previously used in-text citations (Table 2 and Discussion). While there was nothing wrong with the way the articles were cited previously, and while we think that citing the JMIR articles whose impact we discuss in the paper is proper and necessary, we want to avoid any potential impression that this editorial artificially skews JMIR's future impact factor. One way to avoid this is to move the references to a separate file. The original decision to cite them as references was made for the sake of convenience for our readers, to prevent them from having to look up the references in a separate file or by DOI. JMIR has no space limitations and generally prefers to cite references in the article rather than in an Appendix; for readers downloading a PDF file it is more convenient to have all references in a single file rather than having to download a separate Appendix. The decision to no

Education and Interdisciplinary Studies
Undergraduate Programs
Sustainability Studies - Bachelors of Science
Sustainability professionals apply systems thinking across disciplines to create and manage social, environmental, and business products among a diverse and expanding array of professions. The program blends Florida Tech's well-known technical strengths with specialized electives based on student interest to produce unusually well-rounded graduates that can operate within multiple fields in the 21st century. Four concentrations are offered: Technology & Engineering; Business & Economics; Environmental Sciences; Social Sciences.
The program curriculum emphasizes advanced educational experiences, hands-on projects (individually and in teams), applied research on campus or internships in the community. Final capstone projects use a campus classroom model: students address real-world sustainability challenges to generate actual products and gain marketable skills for new & existing industries. Contact Dr. Ken Lindeman, Program Chair, for more information.
Undergraduate Education - Bachelors of Science
Our education program fosters a scholarly and family-like atmosphere where students enjoy small class sizes. Specializing in science, computers, and mathematics, the curriculum is strong in content areas and the latest pedagogy. Florida Tech UTeach is an innovative program that allows students to expand their learning as a STEM major (science, technology, engineering, or mathematics), and develop the skills to also become a certified science or mathematics educator.
The UTeach program doubles your opportunities. In addition to the careers in your STEM major, when you complete the Florida Tech UTeach program and pass the state teacher-certification exam you are also fully qualified to teach mathematics or science, where the job opportunities can be abundant. The program starts with a 1-credit class introducing you to teaching. You need not commit to the program – just try it out. If you like it, move on to Step 2 – another 1-credit class that continues to introduce you to what teaching is about. If you continue, there is usually only one class a term (the classes typically fit into your major as required elective classes). For more information, please contact the Program Manager, Elaine Carlyle, or either Co-Director, Dr. Kastro Hamed or Dr. Laszlo Baksay.
Interdisciplinary Science - Bachelors of Science
Because of the increasing importance of science and technology in our daily lives, Florida Tech has developed an Interdisciplinary Science degree program that allows a student to enroll in a wide variety of science courses, supplemented by certain core courses and carefully chosen electives. The most important characteristics of this degree are that it is flexible and tailored to the individual student's needs, and that it emphasizes broad training in science.
The graduate with an interdisciplinary science degree will have a well-rounded appreciation of science and its place in society, and will have acquired specific tools for his or her career. The Military Science option prepares Florida Tech ROTC cadets to serve as commissioned officers in the United States Army. We also have an Interdisciplinary Science option in Aeronautics. Contact Dr. Laszlo Baksay, Program Chair, for more information.
Minor Programs for Undergraduates
Florida Tech also offers an Education minor, a Sustainability Minor, and an Athletics Coaching Minor. Many students from all Colleges have found that they can add major value to their campus experience and their resume by building a minor into their experience at Florida Tech. The minor credentials are on the final transcript and diploma. Most importantly, students gain major additional skill sets to customize and substantially lever their career paths after graduation.

Let's have a little bit more fun with snap counts, this time with a player who at first seems insignificant, but you quickly realize his potential importance to a lot of owners in a lot of leagues after a glance ahead to the upcoming Week 9 byes.
Thy name is Jared Cook, the Titans tight end who's been a breakout candidate for like nine years. Cook was widely drafted as a secondary tight end this year, with an ADP of 145th overall in NFL.com leagues. That's the kind of draft territory in which you're clicking, and hoping for something. Anything really, with the minimal draft investment made in Cook's upside and potential leading to equally minimal concern if that investment fails miserably. Essentially, I just wasted the preceding sentence explaining the basic definition of a flier pick.
So that's Cook. High on upside, low on trust, and actually high on consistency. The problem is that he's been consistently average, pacing along at a clip of 46.6 receiving yards per week. And really, that's fine, right? You're cool with having average from your TE2 as long as he still provides bust out potential when you're forced to plug him in due to a bye or injury. Cook does that, or at least he did.
Judging by yesterday's usage, his upside could be fading quickly.
We can hope that it was only a one-week outlier, but with the recent improvement in the Titans' running game and Cook's status as a poor run blocker, we may be seeing the beginning of a downward trend. While he finished with a respectable (or rather, yawningly average) 45 yards on three receptions with most of that yardage coming on a 29-yard grab, Cook's lack of opportunities to make more plays is concerning. As Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean notes, Cook was on the field for less than half of the Titans' 59 offensive snaps, participating in just 25 of them (42.5 percent). That's a significant decline from Week 1 when he was included in 60 snaps, and that usage was incredibly pass heavy, as he was asked to run 48 routes. In fact, Wyatt also notes that Cook has been involved in less than 50 percent of the Titans' offensive snaps four times this year.
This came in a game that featured another productive outing from Chris Johnson (99 yards on 21 carries), but it was won — or in Tennessee's case, lost — in overtime by a touchdown. Passing and looking down field was a necessity to gain insurance points, with the Titans posting only three points on two fourth-quarter drives, swinging a door open for Andrew Luck's heroics that led to the Colts' comeback win. Cook has shown an ability to work the field deep over the middle, with five receptions for 25 yards or more this year, and even one for 61 yards.
Yet he was still targeted only four times throughout the entire game yesterday. Why do you need to care so deeply about this? Well, I suppose many of you don't, but many more do. Those who fall in the latter category likely spent an early-round pick on Rob Gronkowski, Aaron Hernandez, or Vernon Davis.
They're three of the top tight ends in fantasy (at least they are when Hernandez is healthy), and that glance at the schedule reveals some upcoming woe next week. All three are on a bye, and with Cook still owned in 60 percent of Yahoo leagues and 72 percent of ESPN leagues, there's a strong possibility that Gronk or Davis or Hernandez owners are also Cook owners.
Waiting to take your TE2 after spending that highly on your top player at the position is a sound strategy. But with Cook's possible downwards trend, disappointment likely looms for those desperate owners during a week heavy with tight end byes.

Teaching with Laptops in the Classroom
Portable laptops are powerful devices which can enhance content delivery, student learning, and collaborative interaction. Utilizing laptops in the face-to-face classroom allow students to instantly access and integrate information, including library resources, course materials, and research sites. Most importantly, using laptops in classrooms provide opportunities for peer teaching and group work. Email, chat and other synchronous or asynchronous communication systems open up new realms of possibilities for collaboration and interaction – even in the physical classroom. Furthermore, with advanced tools like CD-ROM and DVD, there are greater opportunities for large amounts of reference and instructional material (including digital video and interactive exercises) to be shared by students and faculty in order to enhance learning objectives. There are several teaching and learning strategies which can be enhanced with the active use of laptops in the face-to-face classroom. Some include:
Sharing Library Resources
The Pace University library has extensive online databases and resources which allow research from any remote location. Having laptops on hand in the classroom will allow Faculty and students to do "on the fly" searches and thus share access to large banks of data and programs for further learning.
E-portfolios and Group Projects
Facilitate the creation of student digital e-portfolios and the publishing of materials online. Laptops will allow opportunities to foster a student-centered environment where students can showcase and share their work with peers. In-class group or individual projects can be undertaken concurrently, allowing the Faculty member to observe student approaches, provide timely guidance and input, and instantly select and share examples with the whole group.
New York Times Partnership
With our partnership with The New York Times, students can download and review an interactive copy of the paper online from within the classroom. Students have access to The New York Times digital archive and can use any material without copyright permission. Faculty members can easily use current events and other news resources to illustrate concepts within their courses, lending immediacy to the relevance of the material.
Internet Access
Laptops will allow immediate access to Internet sites from within the classroom by any given student. This allows each to take individual paths through the same resources, which can be used to enhance and influence lessons in real time. It also allows greater and closer access to primary sources -- such as original texts, quotes, speeches, digital images, official organization sites and policies, and financial or other databases. Students access an infinite amount of visual information from an abundance of sources worldwide which can enhance and reinforce their learning experiences.
Access Various Internal Server-based Software Programs
Critical thinking skills can be enhanced and reinforced by the use of specific software applications which, for copyright restrictions, can only be accessed internally through Pace. BioQuest, which can be interactively used to explore biology materials, is an example of one such internal software application.
Content Development
The use of laptops by each student opens the door for Faculty to develop interactive instructional materials that can be used during class. It opens the door to think about in-class activities in a new way. Simulations, role-play exercises, interactive timelines are among the many possibilities in creating new resources for teaching. Even something as simple as a class collaboratively completing a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet template – created by the Faculty member – as they learn about economics, budgeting processes or complex formula, can make the presence of individual student laptops a powerful learning tool.
Faculty and students can use various Blackboard tools to enhance classroom interaction. For example, a Faculty member might ask students to use their laptops to turn to a course discussion thread within the Blackboard course in which students had posted their comments to a question posted for homework. The teacher might spotlight one comment in particular, and ask the student author to elaborate verbally and defend their viewpoint.
A similar instructional technique, but one that takes place completely in-class, might include Faculty asking students to turn to a new discussion board forum -- or even Blackboard's virtual classroom -- and requesting brief, real-time responses from students. The Faculty member will receive multiple responses at once – something not readily possible without the laptops – and then discuss each or selected student perspectives. An approach like this allows more student voices and opinions to be heard while also increasing the communication modes available for student input. This can also increase the course's appeal and effectiveness to students with different learning styles.
Content Delivery
The ability for Faculty to reference resources within a course site as the students look on with a screen directly in front of them can make students feel as though they are in the "driver's seat" – or the "student driver's seat" – taking charge of their own learning.
Bringing in Guest Experts for Q&A Sessions
The presence of a laptop in front of each student together with the use of any one of a large number of free or commercial synchronous software applications can allow Faculty to bring people from the outside world into the classroom. Subject matter experts might login in during scheduled class times to the course's web site from a remote location (i.e. their office or home). Using internet audio, video or text-based messaging, students can ask questions of the expert in real-time, as he or she speaks naturally to students, supplementing Faculty instruction and allowing student to benefit from access to primary sources. In these scenarios, assigning one laptop to each student ensures that each has a "voice" in these experiences.
Archiving of Classroom Processes
One side benefit of using laptops in the course of classroom instruction are the archives that often result of the experiences. In the case of an in-class discussion board (described above), much of the interaction between students and Faculty is captured and available for students to review or build upon for homework assignments, and for Faculty to use in subsequent class sessions or future courses.
Ways to incorporate laptops into classroom instruction:
- Warm up activities -- brainstorming
- Provide notes, announcements before class
- Administer online quizzes
- Organize and facilitate group work
- Have students gather and share research -- evaluate relevant websites
- Facilitate asynchronous or synchronous discussions
- Use Assingment tool for graded assignments
- Make grades available online
- Create PowerPoint slides or web pages for presentations
- Create e-portfolios
- Conduct weekly assessments to check student progress and understanding of materials
- Use email to enhance class communication
- Use video and sound clips to add multimedia dimensions to class
- Email links to NY Times and other relevant current news as relates to course topics
- Share drafts electronically for peer editing and for models of excellence
- Provide additional readings through library's e-reserves.

Comic-Con's Best Westboro Baptist Church Counterprotest Signs (The One)

Westboro thinks that comic fans worship false idols, but these Comic-Con counterprotesters didn't seem to be taking themselves too seriously. They even organized on Twitter, using the hashtag #GodLovesBatman, and got photos of their signs to the top of Reddit and Digg. This is why the geeks shall inherit the earth, my friends.
Our pals at Comics Alliance picked out their favorite awesomely geeky protest signs, so we thought we'd get in on the action, too. Here are some of our favorites, gathered from around the web.
Not from a comic, but this spy from Team Fortress is geeky too.
The Westboro Baptist Church is famous for its 'God Hates Fags' slogan. Superman feels differently on the issue.
There's even a video. Watch for the God Hates Michael Bay sign. (That guy totally ruined Transformers!)

You would have probably gone through situation where you were deleting a bulk of unused files and accidently selected and important file that gets deleted. This article will guide you through different ways through which you can recover your file. The guide will start from basic and will end up with the professional way. So first of all let's study what actually happens when you delete a file.
What happens when you press "delete"?
When you press delete button it usually goes to the recycle bin or trash can and we also get the option to recover it. But what happens when that file is deleted or emptied from recycle bin? Actually the whole of the stuff happens on your hard drive. The hard drives stores data in form of "pointers" (If you've learned C or C++ pointers you'll actually understand the concept). The the file get stored in the pointer when it is created. But, when you delete the file it actually doesn't get removed. It's still logically present in the pointer, unless, other file or data is created and that data gets overwritten on the deleted file. Hence, the overwriting actually deletes the file. So, until a new file or data is not created your deleted file can be recovered. But, the thing is you should recover the file immediately when deleted, because it doesn't take much time for new data to be overwritten in that pointer.
Getting back your file: The Basic way
The most basic way to get back your deleted file is from the recycle bin. You just need to right click on the file and press restore. But there are many programs like CCleaner that can empty your recycle bin when started. Never make that run automatically at the background, it prevents you from restoring your data. But if you're not sure if you've deleted it, you can make a search for it in the search box.
Now going onto your cloud storage- Dropbox, google drive, sky drive, etc…. You also get the same option in there to delete the files and also hide those deleted files. It's good with cloud storage, that you never get your file removed when deleted. At Least for a limited period.
Backup the file
You should always backup your most important file. In windows 7 you can backup your data by opening the control panel > Backup and Restore > Backup Now. And if you've never used backup before, you should click on Step up backup . You should always backup on other external data storage device (DVD or pendrive) so that your backed up data won't fall in bad hands.
You can also find the previous versions of a particular folder. That means the files that were present before but now deleted can be seen in this option. You can do this by right click on folder > properties > previous version.
Recovery impossible on some computers
So you have come this far and still couldn't recover your file. There may be hard drive problem for your computer. If you've got a Solid-state hard drive than you should forget about that file. Because the solid-state drives immediately remove the file using the trim function to free up the data on SSD so that new data can be entered in future.
The option in the Traditional Magnetic hard disk. The magnetic drive doesn't really delete the file until a new file is overwritten on it. As I explained before about pointers. The pointer gets deleted and not the file. It stays till the overwriting occurs. So, if you've got a magnetic hard drive, then hopefully you can restore your drive and get your file back.
The Safest way
If you've got the magnetic drive, than you should immediately shut down your PC, don't even wait for downloading the file restoring software or using the backup function. This may make other data to overwrite over that file. It doesn't take much time for the overwriting process. So, the safest way is to shut down , remove your hard drive and install it on another computer, be sure to make it the secondary drive. This will avoid overwriting and you can possibly recover the data.
The guide is till not over. Will add more ways to recover your file. Stay tuned.

The advent of digital SLR's requires optimum lens performance and therefore the very latest optical technology has been incorporated in the production of this medium telephoto macro lens. The 70mm focal length gives an equivalent field of view as our popular 105mm macro lens when used on digital SLR cameras with an APS-C size image sensor. The design of this lens makes it suitable for taking pictures in all situations both with natural light conditions or flash. More
An easy to use 70mm medium telephoto macro lens
This lens would have an equivalent field of view of a 105mm telephoto macro lens when used on digital SLR cameras with an APS-C size image sensor. The narrow angle of view is a great aid for simplifying backgrounds and shallow depth of field makes it easier to handle the composition.
Compensate for colour aberration
A Special Low Dispersion (SLD) lens and two high refractive index SLD lenses provide excellent correction for all types of aberrations and produce an exceptional level of optical performance.
Reduce Ghosting and Flare
Sigma's super multi-layer lens coating reduces flare and ghosting, and helps create a natural colour balance.
Floating Focus System
The floating focus system provides extremely high optical performance from infinity to 1:1 Macro.
Focus Limiter Switch

Comments about Sigma 70mm f2.8 EX DG Macro Lens - Sony/Minolta Fit:
Surprised at the sheer detail captured by this relatively inexpensive lens. Bought to use on professional macro high detail product shots and filled the gap between 50mm and 85mm primes. Very useful focal length on APS-C sensors (105mm) for portraiture. No distortion, sharp wide open - razor sharp at f5.6/f8. Very pleased and so is my client.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
