NEW YORK Torrential rains in and around Chicago caused highway closures and headaches for some area metals companies toward the end of this week, although most reported minimal lasting impact.
Multiple roads were shut down in suburbs of Chicago, including Downers Grove, Ill., home of TMK-Ipsco, a subsidiary of Moscow-based OAO TMK. The company had closed its facilities in the area for the day, a spokesman said April 18, noting that the closures were "administrative only" and not expected to affect operations.
Meanwhile, a Chicago-area steel producer has asked some suppliers to temporarily hold truck shipments of scrap into one of its mills due to flooding, according to one area scrap broker. Shipping to the mill is expected to resume April 24, the broker said.
Some scrap sources in the area reported slight disruptions to their operations, but no yards were reported closed and the majority of players surveyed reported no impact.
"(It is) extremely intense and (there are) problems all around, but (we are) operating as normally as one can during a flood," one stainless scrap processor said. "Loads are coming and going. Drivers are soaked."
"Streets and underpasses (are) flooded, reducing inbound flow truck traffic (in the) short term," a source at a large ferrous scrap company added. However, the company "(doesnt) expect to be hindered more than 48 hours," the source said.
Some market players said they expect flooding to cause a short-term slowdown in scrap flows, though any longer-term impact is still unclear. "(It) all depends on the duration," a Chicago-based ferrous scrap supplier said. "If the rain stops today, there probably will be little to no effect."
Los Angeles-based Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co. was "not seeing any issues" at its Chicago-area operations, according to chairman and chief executive officer David Hannah. "Apparently, everything is up and running," he told AMM. However, he noted that some employees were unable to get to work due to washed-out roads, while the home basements of others had been flooded and needed to be pumped out.
"The inclement weather in Northwest Indiana has had no significant impact on our operations or our ability to serve our customers," a spokeswoman for Chicago-based ArcelorMittal USA LLC told AMM in an e-mail.
Sean Davidson and Catherine Ngai, New York, and Frank Haflich, Los Angeles, contributed to this story.

text: As a long time local surfer who thoroughly enjoyed the ASP tour this past Sept is it me or have crowds increased exponentially since the contest has come and gone. Knowing my history and owning a place in Rincon, Puerto Rico, I realize that this is what happened to that town too back in 1968 bringing it from a sleepy fishing town to a surfers paradise overnight (there are still some remnant hippies leftover there from 44 year ago) and while I can't complain about that I am sure their locals could! Any other long beach guys notice the spike in crowds since the contest as well or anyone experience this anywhere else in the world have input, is it transient or in your opinion will it have more of a long term effect (like Rincon, PR) , if so I will put my house here up for sale sooner rather than later. Your thoughts?

Another Blood Glucose Meter Recalled
Diane Fennell
April 19, 2013
On April 15, 2013, Abbott voluntarily issued a recall of all FreeStyle Insulinx blood glucose meters in the United States because the meter malfunctions at extremely high blood glucose levels. (LifeScan, Inc., recently recalled all OneTouch VerioIQ blood glucose meters in the United States over a similar issue.)
At blood glucose levels of 1024 mg/dl or above, the meter will display and store in its memory a reading that is 1024 mg/dl below the measured result. For a blood glucose level of 1066 mg/dl, for example, the meter will display and record a reading of 42 mg/dl. As Abbott notes, experiencing such a high blood glucose level is unlikely, but it is a serious health risk and requires immediate medical attention should it occur.
Those who are using the FreeStyle Insulinx are advised to take one of the following actions:
• Access a software update at http://www.freestyleinsulinx.com/swupdate/indexus.html that will resolve the issue and allow users to maintain the settings and history on their meters.
• Contact Abbott Diabetes Care customer service at (866) 723-2697 for a free, expedited return and replacement of the meter.
Customers can continue to use their FreeStyle Insuxlinx until their replacement meter arrives, but should immediately contact a health-care professional if they experience symptoms that are not consistent with the meter's results.
To date in the United States, there has been one reported incident that may be related to this issue, in which a person sought medical treatment, was diagnosed with hyperglycemia (high blood glucose), treated, and released. It has not been determined that the FreeStyle Insulinx meter was the cause of this incident.
Approximately 50,000 people in the United States use the FreeStyle Insulinx meter. The meter is also available in Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. No other Abbott Diabetes Care products are affected by this issue.
Abbott has notified the FDA and health-care authorities around the world of the voluntary recall.
For additional information, see the press release on the Abbott Diabetes Care Web site.

CORPUS CHRISTI - Former Tuloso-Midway standouts, turned Houston Baptist stars Lauren and Kirsten Schwirtlich were named Freshman of the Year and New Comer of the Year, the league office announced on Tuesday. Lauren was named Newcomer of the Year and First-Team All Southland, while Kirsten earned Freshman of the Year and Second-Team All Southalnd Honors. A&M-Corpus Christi's Lindsey Lyles, meanwhile also named to the Southland Conference Second-Team.
"We are so proud of Lindsey being named all conference," Head Coach Stephanie Hughes said. "She has worked so hard on her swing and her hard work has paid off. It's a great honor."
Lyles, a native of Lufkin, Texas, led the Islanders in conference play with 16 RBIs and played in all 27 league games. She finished second on the team with a .288 conference batting average while recording 23 hits and four doubles. The sophomore also chipped in a triple, a home run and 32 total bases while splitting time between second base, third base and designated player.
It is the first Southland Conference honor for Lyles, who is a walk-on and finished as one of the top five hitters on the team. Lyles had arguably her best game in the second game against Lamar when she cranked her first career grand slam.

Navigating Absolute Return ETFs
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Recently a former colleague asked for help trying to sort through the potentially overwhelming number of choices available among exchange-traded funds that target alternative strategies like absolute return and other hedge fund-like strategies. A look at the IndexUniverse ETF finder shows 30 exchange-traded products in the absolute return category of the alternatives asset class excluding leveraged products.
The Global X Top Guru Holdings (GURU) is listed as one of the absolute return choices, but Global X views the fund as a core equity holding. There are still enough choices in the category to make choosing one difficult.
The dominant fund in the alternatives sector is the IndexIQ Hedge Multi Strategy Tracker (QAI), which has $450 million in assets. It blends together several hedge fund strategies including long/short and global macro by using ETFs from various asset classes. The results have been mostly as advertised, inching up slowly with a chart that rarely resembles the stock market. Again that is the point here, slow and steady returns that don't resemble the results of equities.
One popular category judging by the number of funds is merger arbitrage, but the funds have different methodologies and the result can be dramatically different. True to merger arbitrage, the Credit Suisse Merger Arbitrage Liquid ETN (CSMA) goes long the target company and sells the acquirer short subject to certain strategic constraints. The risk to the fund is if an announced deal fails to materialize.The ProShares Merger ETF (MRGR), on the other hand, will sell short the acquirer only in a stock deal. In a cash takeover, it will go long the target but will not have a corresponding short position. The most recent fact sheet discloses the long exposure at 107%, the short exposure at 22% and 15% in cash. That makes the fund much more vulnerable to the ups and downs of the stock market. At times that will help performance and at other times hurt it.

|Senior Systems Analyst
Entries by Marko
Music is my most meaningful hobby. I studied classic singing ( graduated at spring 2008 ) but also sung pop music etc, before the studies. I play occasionally my keyboard, Roland E-14, which was also my tool for composing beside the imagination. On composing I am a beginner, and it was autumn ´06 I got the first touch on a tracker software (Psycle). It's not easy to get familiar with sound technical things. Even you forget what you have learnt...
Visited one group for singing pop music, during the period from autumn 2011 to spring 2012.
The experience was ok, and even it made to feel myself like a musician (in a quartet training),
as at the same I had to read the sheet, accompany by electric piano, and sing to microphone direction.
I hadn't done that earlier.
Still at MiReLa I kept on writing vocal arrangements, when needed.

These flatbreads taste great and the texture is nice and crunchy. Also great that it's fat free and makes you full really quick.

Wasa flatbreads are very good. They are offered as many grain choices. This one has no rye in it, so it is one of my favorites.
Glad to see these in iHerb

Will This Upgrade Help Scotts Miracle-Gro (SMG) Stock Today?
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Scotts Miracle-Gro Company (SMG) was upgraded to "outperform" from "market perform" at BMO Capital (BMO).
The firm said it upgraded the lawn and garden products manufacturer and marketer company after reading positive consumer surveys.
Must Read: Warren Buffett's 10 Favorite Growth Stocks
SELL NOW: If you own any of the 900 stocks that TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified as a 'Sell'...you could potentially lose EVERYTHING in the next 6-12 months. Learn moreTheStreet Ratings team rates SCOTTS MIRACLE-GRO CO as a Buy with a ratings score of B-. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate SCOTTS MIRACLE-GRO CO (SMG) a BUY. This is driven by a number of strengths, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its notable return on equity, growth in earnings per share, solid stock price performance and increase in net income. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had generally high debt management risk by most measures that we evaluated." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. When compared to other companies in the Chemicals industry and the overall market, SCOTTS MIRACLE-GRO CO's return on equity exceeds that of the industry average and significantly exceeds that of the S&P 500.
- SCOTTS MIRACLE-GRO CO's earnings per share improvement from the most recent quarter was slightly positive. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past two years. We feel that this trend should continue. During the past fiscal year, SCOTTS MIRACLE-GRO CO increased its bottom line by earning $2.56 versus $1.79 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($3.20 versus $2.56).
- Investors have apparently begun to recognize positive factors similar to those we have mentioned in this report, including earnings growth. This has helped drive up the company's shares by a sharp 29.66% over the past year, a rise that has exceeded that of the S&P 500 Index. We feel that the stock's sharp appreciation over the last year has driven it to a price level which is now somewhat expensive compared to the rest of its industry. The other strengths this company shows, however, justify the higher price levels.
- SMG, with its decline in revenue, underperformed when compared the industry average of 12.7%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 4.6%. The declining revenue has not hurt the company's bottom line, with increasing earnings per share.
- The company, on the basis of net income growth from the same quarter one year ago, has significantly underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and the Chemicals industry. The net income increased by 3.1% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, going from -$67.70 million to -$65.60 million.

William P. Cusack serves on the Scott County Board of Supervisors. Bill was elected to that position in November, 2010 and was sworn in later that month.
Bill was first elected to Public Office in November, 1973 as a member of Davenport's Park Board. He also served on the Davenport Planning & Zoning Commission during that time. Next, he was elected as Davenport Alderman- at-Large in November, 1975 and while an alderman served on the public safety committee and the public works committee. He was re-elected in November, 1977. Upon the death of long-time Scott County Treasurer Ken Gaines later in November, 1977, Bill was appointed Scott County Treasurer on January 3, 1978. He was subsequently elected to that position later that year and was re-elected in 1982, 1986 and 1990.
Bill and his wife Nadine retired to Gilbert, Arizona in 1995. Having moved to Sun Lakes, Arizona and ultimately to Show Low, Arizona, Bill was hired by the Show Low Police Dept. in 2002 and left their employ at the end of 2005 when he returned to Iowa.
Bill graduated from St. Ambrose Academy in 1958, the Graduate School of Banking at the University of Wisconsin, Madison in 1972 and the Iowa Law Enforcement Academy in 1985. His initial career was in the banking business, having been hired in 1959 as a stock boy at First Trust and Savings Bank, Davenport and working his way up to Asst. Vice-Pres. and manager of the Division Street Office, which is now a US Bank office. His banking career ended on December 31, 1977 because of his selection to become Scott County Treasurer. In the 39 year history of the Iowa State Reserve Law Officer's Association history, Bill is the only two term president.
Bill represents Scott County on the Bi-State Region 9 Transportation Policy Committee and the Partners of Scott County Watershed Commission. Bill was recently appointed as Scott County's representative on the 7th Judicial District Court System Board of Directors.

Baseball's Opening Day, Bush Throws the Pill, Principal's 401-K Challenge and Bill James
It's Opening Day! 14 games:
Opening Day is here, first with a pair of Boston-Oakland games in Japan, then with Ryan Zimmerman's unbelievable walk-off homer to beat Atlanta in the first regular-season game at Nationals Park in Washington, and now with 14 Major League Baseball games today, including the last opener at Yankee Stadium.
Every Opening Day, I have this tradition. I pray — hard. One prayer for each loss in the previous season. It usually takes all day. But I think it's working.
Royals fan "Troy" in Liberty, Mo.
Sorry, Troy… it hasn't worked out since Tartabull and Saberhagen were hot, but I applaud your unrelenting fandom.
W got booed [I guess for his leadership off the ballfield], but even the die-hard lefties have to admit that kid's got a cannon [watch video of it here].
I invite everyone to participate in the Principal Financial Group 401-K Challenge. It's easy – you predict which Major League Baseball team will be the first to record 401 pitching strikeouts at home in the 2008 season. If you guess correctly, you're entered into a drawing for:
- Grand Prize: If you choose the winning team, you are eligible for a random drawing at the end of the season for five thousand dollars ($5,000).
- Local First Prize: All other entrants will be entered into a local drawing for one of 56 first prizes that include:
- $100 Best Buy gift card
- A free six-month membership to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, NY
I've been to Cooperstown, NY before. It's a nice place! And, of course, the National Baseball Hall of Fame is a one-of-a-kind institution that everyone should visit at some point – baseball fan or not.
My pick is the Kansas City T-Bones. [Hat Tip: Beartwinsmom]
And if you didn't catch statistical analysis messiah Bill James' interview on 60 Minutes last night, by all means, watch it here.
James' contributions to statistical analysis are enormous. Some of us even believe that re-thinking data could help out in education [others, like the UFT, don't]. Listening to James talk about applying data to the game – and the limits of that data – is sobering, and the commentary from Bob Costas and other notables is wonderful.
Good luck on the 401-K Challenge, enjoy your opening day games and may Bill James change the way you look at box scores.
Sawx rule.
That is all.

Developer Setup
Developers are setup with either Eclipse or Netbeans IDE, but any editor will work. External Maven commands are launched to compile, package, and run unit tests. Here are instructions for getting setup with a SymmetricDS developer workspace using either Eclipse or Netbeans.
Eclipse Setup
- Install the Eclipse IDE.
- Install Maven. Make sure the Maven "bin" directory is in your system path.
- From Eclipse, check out each project from https://svn.code.sf.net/p/symmetricds/code/trunk/.
- Configure the Maven repository variable for Eclipse. Go to Window->Preferences. In the tree, select Java->Build Path->Classpath Variables. Click the New button and enter "M2_REPO" with a value of your ".m2" directory. (Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\user\.m2, Unix: /home/user/.m2)
- In Windows, common Maven tasks are accessible through Eclipse external tools. Go to Run->External Tools->External Tools. The following tasks are avalable:
- Symmetric Eclipse - Generates Eclipse artifacts for each project to make them Java projects.
- Symmetric Compile and Package Only
- Symmetric Test and Package
- In Linux, use Maven from the command line
- To generate Eclipse artifacts for each project run: mvn eclipse:eclipse from the symmetric-assemble project.
- If you are going to be using Eclipse's code formatting capabilities and also expect to check in code please be sure to import the Eclipse formatter settings that the SymmetricDS team uses. It is in symmetric-server/src/shortcuts.
Netbeans Setup
- Install the NetBeans IDE.
- Install the Netbeans Maven plugin from within the Netbeans plugin window.
- Install the Maven build manager.
- Configure the Netbeans Maven plugin's External Maven Home home folder to where Maven was installed from by going into the Tools....Options....Miscellaneous...Maven.
- Checkout the code from https://svn.code.sf.net/p/symmetricds/code/trunk/
- Create a project for the checked out code when it asks. e.g., symmetricds.
- Common Maven tasks are available on the right click menu for the project.

Revised March 15, 2012
How do I know which office to contact? HCS or CSO?
HCS determines eligibility for hospice when clients are receiving services authorized by Home and Community Services (HCS) except when there is a TANF/family related medical program attached.
HCS services include medicaid personal care (MPC) or HCS Waiver services authorized by the HCS social service specialist.
HCS determines eligibility for Hospice when one spouse is receiving services from HCS and the other spouse is in need of hospice.
HCS does not retain nursing home cases once a nursing home client has made a election of hospice. Upon receipt of the notice of election in a nursing home, the HCS office makes a program change to the hospice program and transfers the case to the specialty medical unit at CSD. (CSO 157).
Contact information for the Central Medical Unit for hospice at CSD
For all other clients, the hospice program is currently specialized at the central medical unit (CMU) at CSO 157 in Seattle. The central unit determines eligibility for the hospice program for clients who are not receiving HCS waiver services or HCS Medicaid Personal Care (MPC) services and for clients residing in Hospice Care Centers and nursing homes for whom there is a current hospice election. NGMA requests for these clients will be completed by following the CSD NGMA process and not through HCS.
All hospice notifications statewide are faxed to the Health Care Authority's (HCA) MEDS unit where they are scanned into the document management systems (DMS). A copy is sent to the MPA notification unit to update the client information in the claims payment system and a copy is also sent to the CMU or HCS office of record for review.
Medical only applications received may be routed via DMS to the CSO 157 @HSP for processing.
Applications received in the CSO that include requests for other programs are processed by the local office for other programs and by the CMU for Hospice. Set a same day tickler to CSO 157 @HSP for application.
Applications received where the client has requested hospice services are only handled by the central medical unit when there is a 13-746 DSHS/Medicaid Hospice notification form in the client's record showing a current hospice election. If the client has indicated hospice on the application but no 13-746 is in the client record, the CMU will contact the client, authorized representative or hospice agency to confirm whether the client has elected hospice or not, prior to denying the application for the hospice program or transferring to another office if other LTC services are requested.
CMU contact information:
Phone: Toll Free 1-877-501-2233.
Agents will answer general inquiries based on the Customer Service Center (CSC) Reference Guides and set ticklers to the Specialized Medical Teams for follow up or call back need.

skittledragonChronic tension headache
After visiting the doctor for the 3rd time, the conclusion seems to be that I had "muscular-skeletal tension", which is basically a more terrifying name for tension headache! Which I had pretty chronic. The main cause is stress, and while I didn't think I was particularly stressed, I guess now I probably was. I'm feeling so much better and have some anti-inflammatories just to be sure. So I suppose I need to learn how to better recognise when I'm stressed, and deal with it in a more effective way. Right now I'm just happy enjoying a complete lack of squeezing, burning pain in my skull xD 2 years ago

Shock-jock senator tunes out left, turns off right
For American politics in 2007, the focus is largely on the Democratic Party's sweep into power on a wave of Republican corruption and failed policy. But just to the west of Rice, the deep-red District 7 bucked the trend, electing conservative talk radio host Dan Patrick to the Texas Senate.
Patrick goes beyond the talk radio stereotype of the millionaire egocentric self-promoter who repeats the xenophobic talking points that allow white, middle-age males to think they are an oppressed minority. On air, Patrick cornered the market on attacking not just the usual political enemies — the growing Hispanic population and Democrats — but going after moderate Republicans who did not see policy differences as personal differences. This style has made Patrick more enemies than a satirically racist Backpage editor — but it has also brought him fame, fortune and electoral victory.
Now Patrick will try to bring his slash-and-burn politics from Houston's radio waves to the Texas Senate, and very few people are happy, including Patrick's fellow Republicans. Former state Senator Jon Lindsay, whom Patrick is replacing, has expressed extreme doubts about Patrick. "I think he would be terrible in the Senate," Lindsay said in an interview with the Texas Observer. "He'd be a difficult person for the lieutenant governor and the leadership to work with."
After all, Patrick is going to have a hard time working with his self-declared enemies.
Even members of the radically right-wing forum freerepublic.com are uncomfortable with Patrick, with a user by the alias of RedWhiteBlue lamenting: "I also don't enjoy listening to him on the radio. It"s [sic] his tone, or something … like he's talking down to everyone." Freerepublic.com is no place for bipartisanship, and often blocks members who express views contrary to the majority opinion. The simple fact that commenters there view Patrick as going too far should be a warning to the rest of the Senate.
Patrick's rage stems from the Senate rules themselves: Two-thirds of the 31 Senators must approve before a bill can be considered on the floor. Like most rules in the Texas government, its original purpose was to slow the legislative process and tend Texas towards small government. However, this rule also encourages cooperation and ensures that no matter who is in the majority, the minority's voice will always be heard. In other words, Republicans and Democrats have to work together. But against the opinion of even his own party, Patrick is attempting to destroy this rare civility of the Texas Senate and replace it with all the dignity and common sense of shock-jock talk radio.
Patrick only has to look across the capitol to see the consequences of ruling with an iron gavel. Texas State Speaker of the House Tom Craddick just had to face off a challenge from fellow Republican Jim Pitts. Craddick's strong-arm tactics of forcing votes and shutting out any minority opinion have finally caught up with him. Now Republicans and Democrats alike are uniting to elect a Speaker who will give every member a full and equal voice.
More importantly, Patrick should remember that Craddick was the first Republican Speaker in over a century. Political winds are fickle, and what may benefit Republicans now can be a later tool of parliamentary revenge. After all, Republicans in Washington are kicking themselves for not passing Nancy Pelosi's minority party bill of rights when they had the chance.
In the end, Patrick will probably end up learning a lesson in political enemy-making not from Republicans or Democrats, but from his own constituents. In only a few years, the rising Hispanic middle class may start to call Patrick's suburban district their home. And I am sure they would rather tune their political radios to someone who did not make his career blaming Hispanic immigrants for the collapse of civilization.
