The Moment of Truth?
One problem with the field guide approach to decision-making is that it provides too much information, allows for too many options. Call it "unbounded rationality." Call it "thick-slicing." What enables thin-slicing to work, by contrast, is not simply that it deals with a smaller universe, but that it homes in on the bits that are uniquely relevant to the problem at hand. Gladwell tells the story of Brendan Reilly, an emergency room physician at Cook County Hospital in Chicago, an overcrowded and financially strapped institution whose emergency department was treating a quarter of a million patients a year, many of them complaining of chest pain. Typically, a doctor diagnoses heart attack by taking a patient's history, administering a physical exam including an electrocardiogram (EKG), and making an educated guess. It's time-consuming, and too often, in Reilly's hospital at least, that guess has turned out to be wrong. Hoping to find a more accurate and less costly method of finding out who was not experiencing cardiac arrest, so his staff could focus on those who might be, Reilly began to test a decision-making algorithm developed by the cardiologist Lee Goldman. Though the algorithm only took three factors into account in addition to an ECG—is the pain unstable, is there fluid in the lungs, is the blood pressure below 100?—it was based on Goldman's historical analysis of the course of hundreds of heart attacks:
[Reilly] took Goldman's algorithm, presented it to the doctors in the Cook County ED and the doctors in the Department of Medicine, and announced that he was holding a bake-off. First, the staff would use their own judgment in evaluating chest pain, the way they always had. Then they would use Goldman's algorithm, and the diagnosis and outcome of every patient treated under the two systems would be compared. For two years, data were collected and in the end, the result wasn't even close. Goldman's rule won hands down in two directions: it was a whopping 70 percent better than the old method at recognizing the patients who weren't actually having a heart attack.
The Cook County Hospital experiment brings Gladwell to the conclusion that "you need to know very little to find the underlying signature of a complex phenomenon." True as this may be, it is also deceptive. Goldman's simple algorithm is based on a complicated methodology. And much like, say, Thomas Hoving's expertise, it was decades in the making. That complexity and those years of refinement, both of which occur offstage, are what "snap" the judgment. Moreover, by screening out what does not matter—a patient's diabetes, for instance, or his insomnia, or his Percocet habit—Goldman's algorithm disallows subjective and idiosyncratic concerns from skewing the diagnosis. In the language of cognitive psychologists, the algorithm is a heuristic, the irrelevant concerns are biases, and biases muck things up.
Gladwell also spends a lot of time in Blink writing about the muck-ups, telling the sorry stories of ordinary people who were hamstrung by embedded prejudices that clouded their better judgment, military personnel who were wedded to inelastic chains of command that left no room for intuitive decision-making, market researchers who asked the wrong questions and therefore promoted the wrong products, and voters who chose style over substance. This last is what Gladwell calls the Warren Harding error, and it is, he says, the "dark side of rapid cognition."
Harding, who until quite recently had the honor of being considered the worst president in American history, was launched on his political career by an Ohio political operative named Harry Daugherty who happened to be sitting next to Harding one day when they were both having their shoes shined. To Daugherty's quick, intuitive eye, Warren Harding looked presidential. He had the right bearing, the right stature, the right forehead. Other people—the voters of Ohio—thought so too. They sent Warren Harding—a man who stood for nothing—to the Senate in 1914. ("Why that son of a bitch looks like a senator," one of his supporters declared at a campaign banquet.)
In 1920, after Harding had served one term, Daugherty convinced him to seek the Republican nomination for president. (Apparently, as his hair grayed, he looked even more the part.) When delegates found themselves deadlocked over the top two candidates, Harding catapulted over them both:
In the early morning hours, as they gathered in the smoke-filled back rooms of the Blackstone Hotel in Chicago, the Republican Party bosses threw up their hands and asked, wasn't there a candidate they could all agree on? And one name came immediately to mind: Harding! Didn't he look just like a presidential candidate? So Senator Harding became candidate Harding, and later that fall, after a campaign conducted from his front porch in Marion, Ohio, candidate Harding became President Harding.
And that was before television.
The election of Warren Harding might have been, in Gladwell's terms, an error, but it's unclear that it was an aberration. Indeed, the "dark side" of Blink not only seems to permeate our political life, it seems to eclipse it. In politics, more than in almost anything else, people go on first impressions. As Democrats found in the last election cycle, when almost every piece of news coming out of Iraq and the budget office and the foreign exchange should have helped their cause, none of it mattered because more people "liked" Bush than "liked" Kerry. It was the power of thinking without thinking.
Writing in The New Yorker the summer before the 2004 election about how Americans typically go about picking their presidents, Louis Menand recounts the advice offered to campaign strategists in the pages of Campaigns & Elections: The Magazine for People in Politics:
In a competitive political climate informed citizens may vote for a candidate based on issues. However, uninformed or undecided voters will often choose the candidate whose name and packaging are most memorable. To make sure your candidate has that "top-of-mind" voter awareness, a powerful logo is the best place to start. You want to present your candidate in language that voters will understand. They understand colors. "Blue is a positive color for men, signaling authority and control," another article advises. "But it's a negative color for women, who perceive it as distant, cold and aloof. Red is a warm, sentimental color for women—and a sign of danger or anger to men. If you use the wrong colors to the wrong audience, you're sending a mixed message.
As reductive as this may seem, these kinds of messages—whether in the form of logos or slogans or colors or songs—are effective. They are effective because they are reductive. There is only so much information a person can or is willing to absorb. Political strategists exploit this, certainly, but most of us are complicit. How many voters who said they agreed with John Kerry's health care program, for instance, could state with any specificity what his health care program entailed? As the political scientist Samuel Popkin suggests to Louis Menand, even "elite" voters—that is to say, informed voters—rely on shortcuts:
The very essence of being an ideologue lies in trusting the label—liberal or conservative, Republican or Democrat. Those are "bun-dling" terms: they pull together a dozen positions on individual issues under a single handy rubric. They do the work of assessment for you.
We live our lives on a need-to-know basis.
Of course, so do animals in the wild, who must instantly assess if the approaching footsteps belong to a potential predator, if the plant is edible, if that female is fertile. The environment supplies the cues, and at the moment of decision, everything else is just background noise. When, on February 4, 1999, four New York City policemen shot and killed a Guinean man named Amadou Diallo in his Bronx apartment building, they were, it would seem, reacting instinctively to cues that made them behave as if Diallo were a predator: his presence as a black man on his building's stoop late at night; his flight when approached; the way his black leather wallet, held out to the officers in a darkened hallway, looked to them like a gun. Their reaction—forty-one shots fired in less than two minutes—would seem to be the very darkest side of "blink."
Gladwell, however, doesn't exactly see it this way. To him the killing of Amadou Diallo was a spectacular "mind-reading failure." The officers, observing Diallo on the stoop,
sized him up and in that instant decided he looked suspicious. That was mistake number one. Then they backed the car up, and Diallo didn't move. [Officer] Carroll later said that "amazed" him: How brazen was this man, who didn't run at the sight of the police? Diallo wasn't brazen. He was curious. That was mistake number two. Then Carroll and [officer] Murphy stepped toward Diallo on the stoop and watched him turn slightly to the side, and make a movement for his pocket. In that split second, they decided he was dangerous. But he was not. He was terrified. That was mistake number three.
What Gladwell seems to mean by "mind-reading," then, is the ability to interpret another person's state of mind from his body language—which in fact is what the police officers thought they were doing when they started firing their weapons. But their ability was clouded by instinct—fear. True mind-reading, Gladwell suggests, requires instinct to be suppressed, or retrained. He cites examples of security guards who are made to undergo "stress inoculation" by being exposed to ferocious dogs and shot at (with loud fake guns) over and over again until their racing hearts slow down and their fears slink away because the situations and the interventions required become routine. "Our unconscious thinking is, in one critical respect, no different from our conscious thinking," Gladwell writes: "in both we are able to develop our rapid decision making with training and experience." Elkhonon Goldberg would call this the getting of wisdom.
Early on in his book, Gladwell relates the story of a place he calls "the love lab," a nondescript office near the University of Washington where John Gottman and his team of researchers videotape and then analyze the conversations of married couples. So far they've deconstructed about three thousand marital dialogues, each one a seemingly inconsequential tête-à-tête about the family dog or where to go on vacation or whether to buy a pickup truck or a minivan. Using a system Gottman developed that assigns a num-erical value to each one of twenty different facial gestures every time one is expressed, Gottman's team translates each discussion into a string of 1,800 numbers—900 per spouse. These number strings are put into an equation that also factors in the talkers' temperature, heart rate, the degree of nervous fidgeting, and other physical phenomena. (They are hooked up to electrodes.) The result, Gladwell says, is "something remarkable. If [Gottman] analyzes an hour of a husband and wife talking, he can predict with 95 percent accuracy whether that couple will still be married fifteen years later." While Gladwell (who is unmarried) acknowledges that Gottman's work is hardly an example of rapid cognition, he argues that, nonetheless, it shows how
the truth of even impossibly complex interactions like marriage can be understood very rapidly and with limited information…. Can a marriage really be understood in one sitting? Yes it can….
Someday, perhaps, there will be a prenuptial algorithm available for aspiring spouses to assess their future happiness, but in the meantime, as Gladwell reports, there is speed dating, where unclaimed singles scurry around a room sizing up potential mates in a couple of minutes. Gigerenzer's work shows that most people need not spend a lot of time, or encounter a tremendous number of new prospects, to find a suitable partner. Bounded rationality is in effect. Hooking up, however, is not the same thing as staying hitched. There is a biological imperative to reproduce. It's instinctive. We hardly have to think about it.

Wildcats stop Lake Hamilton
By: Tony Burns - El Dorado News-Times
El Dorado's Treyshawn Shutes makes a tough catch over Lake Hamilton's Stephen Shirley. Shutes' 31-yard grab converted a fourth-and-15 and set up the Wildcats' first touchdown. El Dorado beat the Wolves 31-17 Friday.
After handling everything Lake Hamilton's defense threw at him, El Dorado quarterback Lucas Reed was finally caught off-guard after the game when he was told of his passing statistics.
"Really?" he said. "I didn't know that."

Product Review: Kind Granola- maple walnut and dark chocolate & cranberry
Posted on | June 16, 2012 | Comments Off
p>Kind, which formerly only made gluten free fruit and nut snack bars has branched out and is now making gluten free granola. The flavors available are vanilla almond clusters, peanut butter, cinnamon oat clusters, oats and honey clusters with toasted coconut, maple walnut clusters, and dark chocolate with cranberry clusters. I purchased two flavors to try from my local grocery store for $5.49 each.
If you follow this website you know how much I love granola. I am always willing to try new granola. Kind"s new granola is no exception. I tested maple walnut clusters, and dark chocolate & cranberry clusters.
Each bag was 11 oz, and lasted about two weeks. The granola came with large clusters, smaller clusters, and individual oats. I liked this because the clusters were perfect for munching while the individual grains are better for breakfast with milk or yogurt. The granola featured with multiple grains: gluten free oats, brown rice, millet,

amaranth, buckwheat, and and quinoa. This was a fantastic for me, because I find it hard to get a variety of grains in my diet. A big bonus was all the grains besides the oats were casino online hardly visible. For someone like me this isn"t a big deal, but for my husband who won"t go near quinoa with a ten foot pole, this was a plus. There wasn"t much flavor besides the dark chocolate and maple walnut. This made the granola very mild, and not over-flavored.
The bag was reclosable which kept the granola fresh and was very convenient for on the go snacking.
I first tried the maple walnut clusters with chia and quinoa. The maple flavoring seemed very light, hardly distinguishable, and I hardly saw or tasted any walnuts. The granola was still delicious tasting, but plain. It was almost the same with the dark chocolate and cranberry clusters. There was
a slight chocolate flavor, but I did not taste the cranberries at all.
If you"re looking for a robust, flavorful granola I suggest you go somewhere else.

UK Music Tickets and VIP Concert Packages from Findutickets
Five Hot Tips for Arranging Music Concert Tickets
I found a great UK company, Findutickets, that helps out in a rather niche area. VIP concert hospitality.
Tip Number 1 – Hot Concerts Sell Out Way In Advance
This company secure top seats in advance through their knowledge of the arena hospitality industry. All venues sell official VIP seats, access and packages and Findutickets make sure they secure a certain amount for their clients. Most of us don't have the time to dial the venue's phone number endlessly, or play the online game with direct sellers. Findutickets ensure we don't end up missing out.
Tip Number 2 – A Findutickets Booking Guarantees you Official Tickets
Whether it is good quality tickets you need, or you call yourself a massive fan and want to go VIP, concert ticket companies that offer choice spots are varied. Some companies are reliable, and some are not. It is worth going with an official ticket seller like these guys.
Tip Number 3 – Check The Social Networking Sites if Unsure
I discovered you can find more information on Findutickets.com on Facebook as Findutickets, or on Twitter as Darryl@findutickets. The home website links into the other sites, and you can see if you look at all three that there is a few things that confirm you are dealing with a quality seller:
The customer service team is easily accessible and you can view replies, comments and reviews from customers.
The regular posts and updates about the latest gigs in the UK show the site is well maintained.
There are some funny and insightful remarks about the state of football in the UK, as Findutickets also offer sports hospitality tickets.
Tip Number 4 – Variety is the Spice of Life
A reputable ticket seller will have a lot of up-to-date, up-to-the-minute tickets for sale, showing they have good relations with venues. Findutickets currently have Rolling Stones 2013 for a discount price, hot tickets for the virtually sold out Michael Buble Tour, a Rod Stewart VIP package and Rhianna Diamonds Tour Tickets. There are even some niche items like a Christmas Concert for the O2 Capital FM Jingle Bell Ball tickets, and Justin Bieber NIM Birmingham VIP packages. The last one I SAY is niche, but I might be too old and missed the fact he's incredibly popular. 'Beiber Fever' and all that.
Tip Number 5 – Let Us Know How You Got ON!
I found Findutickets a nice company to deal with. Please let us know what you think and post a comment on my blog sometime!

You can't be good all the time. It would be exhausting. Worse yet, it would be boring. I firmly believe we all need to make a little trouble from time to time. But just because you're up to no good doesn't mean you don't want to look great.
Whether you're taking a walk on the wrong side of the tracks, persuading that lock to click open, clambering in through a conveniently open window, or just stirring up mischief, these six patterns will make sure you're doing it in style. And if pulling out your knitting happens to make you look innocent and unassuming to any members of the local constabulary who might come strolling by in the middle of your adventures—well, that's just an added bonus!
This book is available in both electronic and physical versions. The electronic version is available through Ravelry (it will be emailed to you and stored in your Ravelry library if you have an account). When you order the physical book through this website, you'll also get a free copy of the electronic book. Once your order goes through, you'll get an email (it will be sent to the email address you use for paypal) with instructions on how to download the electronic book.
If you prefer, you can also find the book at amazon or ask for it at your local yarn store. Please note purchases made from other locations do not qualify for the free electronic book.

Federico Zuccaro
Italian, about 1595
Pen and brown ink, brush with brown wash, over black chalk
7 1/16 x 16 5/16 in.
In a continuous narrative that moves from right to left, Taddeo Zuccaro brings a letter of introduction to his cousin, the painter Francesco il Sant'Angelo, who worked in the studio of painter Perino del Vaga. Brusquely dismissed by his relation, Taddeo leaves in tears but soon catches sight of a large frescoed facade by one of the most admired painters of the day, Polidoro da Caravaggio. At the back of the drawing, the small figure of Taddeo crouches down in the middle of the piazza to sketch the facade. The building that he sketches has now been destroyed, but scholars have identified the palazzo. Giorgio Vasari, the Renaissance author and painter, included this story in his Lives of Painters, Sculptors and Architects , noting that: "In Rome he had a hard time at first, being friendless and lonely. The one person he did know treated him more unkindly than anyone else, for when he humbly approached Francesco il Sant'Angelo, a journeyman artist employed by Perino del Vaga for grotesque decoration, who was a relation, Francesco, behaving as relations often do, gave him neither practical help nor even advice, but turned him harshly away."

Published: October 2010
About the Book
San Francisco resident Philip Goldsmith knows the best way to experience Napa and Sonoma, from buying fresh produce at Rutherford Gardens to enjoying a hot-air balloon ride over southern Sonoma. In
Moon Napa & Sonoma,
Goldsmith offers recommendations on the region's must-see attractions and activities, including swirling and sniffing lessons at Goosecross Cellars and a relaxing mud bath for two at the Lincoln Avenue Spa. Whether you're there for some serious wine-tasting or just a little R&R,
Moon Napa & Sonoma
gives you the tools you need to create a more personal and memorable experience.
About Philip Goldsmith
Endless moves as a child, including a yearlong stint in North Africa, made Philip Goldsmith a travel addict at an early age. He has since lived and worked on two continents, forsaking the rain in his native England for the California sun, and racked up some impressive airline mileage as a globe-trotting business journalist and wayward traveler in search of personal adventure. He has survived flash floods in Malaysia, been stranded on a train in Spain, fallen off the Great Wall in China, and tumbled down the side of a volcano in El Salvador. Still, his desire for unusual and new experiences remains as strong as ever.
It helped that Philip inadvertently chose the right career path. After putting in more hours working on the student newspaper at the University of London than for his degree in chemistry, it was no surprise he found it easier to find a job as a journalist than as a scientist. More than a decade later, however, he once again found himself reading about chemistry, albeit the chemistry of wine.
Philip's introduction to the joys of wine might have come from watching his father drink large quantities of the stuff to survive the many stressful family holidays in France. More likely, however, he acquired his expensive wine habit as a journalist when he was being wined and dined in style by some of Europe's biggest corporations. Many companies wasted bottles of fine Bordeaux before he learned to appreciate them.
He now has a very European attitude to enjoying wine and hopes to live to a ripe old age by drinking a glass every day. When he's not writing, traveling, or working hard to extend his life at local wineries, Philip often seeks out mishaps in the wine country's great outdoors, whether mountain biking in the Santa Cruz Mountains, hiking in Napa, or canoeing down the Russian River in Sonoma. All are within easy reach of his home in San Francisco.

Blood Pressure Drop During Dialysis May Raise Clot Risk
Low BP occurs in about 25% of these treatment sessions in kidney-failure patients, researchers say
FRIDAY, July 29 (HealthDay News) -- Low blood pressure while undergoing dialysis puts patients at increased risk for clots where their blood vessels are connected to the dialysis machine, a new study says.
Previous research had found that a sudden drop in blood pressure during dialysis can lead to short-term gastrointestinal, muscular and neurologic symptoms, and long-term problems such as stroke, seizure, heart damage and death.
This new study, led by researchers at Stanford University School of Medicine, examined data collected between 1995 and 2000 from 1,426 dialysis patients who took part in a clinical trial sponsored by the U.S. National Institutes of Health.
Dialysis is a treatment for kidney-failure patients that uses a machine to cleanse their blood. Many patients are attached to the dialysis machine through a fistula, a surgically created vascular access point in the body that's connected to the tubes that take and return blood to the dialysis machine.
The analysis revealed that patients who experienced low blood pressure most often while undergoing dialysis were two times more likely to have a clotted fistula than those who had the fewest episodes of low blood pressure.
"Our analysis shows another adverse consequence associated with a fall in blood pressure during dialysis for patients," lead author and nephrologist Dr. Tara Chang said in a Stanford news release. "Vascular access is their lifeline. It's required for dialysis and without dialysis, they'll die."
Because low blood pressure occurs in about one-quarter of dialysis sessions, "physicians already try to avoid low blood pressure during dialysis through various means," Chang said. "This is just one more good reason to continue these efforts."
The study is published in the July 29 online edition of the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology.

The relationship between higher education attainment and employment is clear, but is there an even deeper connection between attainment and the economy? Could increasing higher education attainment actually drive economic growth and job creation, particularly in today's economy?
Economists have examined the unexplained causes of the job market's slow recovery from the recession. Available evidence suggests that our nation's inability to match jobs to people with the right skills is a major factor in explaining why employment rates have not increased as quickly as they should have in the economic recovery.1 This mismatch goes beyond the level of specific occupations — i.e., unemployed auto workers needing to be retrained as nurses. The problem goes deeper — a mismatch of general skills across all occupations.
A fascinating study by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York found that, in each U.S. recession since 1980, an increasing share of total unemployment was caused by structural job loss, not by short-term cyclical layoffs.2 This phenomenon is a major factor in the slowing of employment growth after recessions — the so-called "jobless recovery."
The most recent recession followed the same pattern, only more so. What is now very clear is that, when structural job loss takes place in an economy with increasing skill requirements — such as ours, education and training are essential to putting people back to work. If we can't supply labor markets with enough people who have the necessary knowledge and skills, economic growth will be choked off.
footnote 1 http://macroblog.typepad.com/macroblog/2010/07/a-curious-unemployment-picture-gets-more-curious.html
footnote 2 The Federal Reserve Bank of New York study is called Has Structural Change Contributed to a Jobless Recovery? and was written by Erica L. Groshen and Simon Potter.

Health Tip: Keep Cloth Grocery Totes Clean
(HealthDay News) -- Reusable grocery totes may be friendly for the environment, but they can also befriend harmful bacteria.
The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics suggests how to keep grocery totes clean:
Regularly wash grocery totes either by hand (use hot, soapy water) or in the washing machine.
Bag separately in plastic any fish, poultry or meat before placing them in a tote. Be sure to separate these products from prepared or packaged foods.
Carefully clean any kitchen areas (such as a counter) where you place totes while unpacking.
Don't leave totes in the trunk of your car; store them in a cool, dry place.

srsly? June 7, 2011
This guy is gorgeous and always very gentle and obviously a good fuck.. the girl is ridiculous. She looks like she is in pain and the noises she's making are super annoying. I've been watching his videos all day and this was the first one I had to turn down because the girl was so annoying and obviously faking it. Guys, if you think the noises that girl is making are from "real orgasms", you are sadly mistaken. No girl makes noise like that when she is actually cumming
ilikebigcocks June 1, 2011

My hot redheaded wife used to come like that when she was younger! I always fantasized (and still do!) about her fucking a BBC like that and seeing her white creamy cum juice glistening on his black shaft as he thrusts in and out of her pink pussy surrounded by golden red pussy hairs. And then seeing his cum oozing out of her pussy lips and in her cunt hair. Oh my!!!

Where I live, far from avocado country, it's not unusual for organic avocados to be $2.50 or $3 each.

Year in Review: BluFi Lending Characterizes 2011 as a Success, Plans Increased Growth and Charitable Work for 2012
Direct lender to open new California offices to meet consumer demand for low mortgage rates
SAN DIEGO, Feb. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- BluFi Lending, a San Diego-based direct lender for home loans, announces highlights from 2011 and planned initiatives for 2012. BluFi President and CEO, John Lee said, "2011 was a year of ups and downs for the mortgage industry, but BluFi Lending has stayed on top with a year full of achievements. We have grown our team, developed partnerships with vendors, topped lists of San Diego companies, won awards, and formalized our charitable outreach program. Bottom line: 2011 was a positive year for BluFi Lending and we are poised for more success in 2012."
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20111108/MM02893LOGO)
2011 highlights include:
- 48% growth in new employees
- 78% growth in volume for Q3 and Q4 compared to Q1 and Q2
- Developed support strategies focused on real estate professionals
- Listed as the number one San Diego Mortgage Company in the San Diego Business Journal's Book of Lists
- Formalized charitable outreach program, BluFi Cares, and volunteered for charities The San Diego Food Bank, and The Angel's Depot
- Awarded the Annual Excellence Award for volunteer efforts for The Angel's Depot
For its 2012 initiatives, BluFi has aggressive growth plans to start the year by opening two new branch offices in California with plans for more. With mortgage rates at record lows, BluFi Lending executives forecast more consumers will be purchasing homes, and the company has recently increased staffing by 150% to meet the rising demand. BluFi is also on track to triple their growth in volume for 2012.
BluFi has already earned praise from San Diego real estate professionals for its reputation of closing purchase loans in as little as 21 days, but the direct lender's 2012 plans include increased marketing and support services for the real estate industry.
BluFi Cares has already held its first 2012 initiative: the company's yearly kickoff event, held Friday, Jan. 27 at The Sheraton Carlsbad Resort and Spa, featured a fundraiser benefiting the Wounded Warrior Project. Between employee donations and the company match, BluFi Lending raised $3,000 in support of the Project's mission to raise awareness and enlist the public's aid for the needs of injured service members. Other charitable plans include the Dress for Success clothing drive in February, a home/yard clean up for local San Diegans in the summer, and volunteering for The Angel's Depot in December.
"We are already seeing increased business this year thanks to incredibly low mortgage rates for new purchase home loans," said Lee. "Combine those with BluFi's efficient paperless processes and transparent responsible lending, and we deliver a refreshing approach to home loans that consumers can get excited about. Similarly, the BluFi team is just as excited to contribute to our community with volunteerism and donations. Good business practices matched with community stewardship creates a healthy, positive work environment we're proud of. We're looking forward to more growth and triumphs in both aspects for 2012."
About BluFi Lending

How Teamwork Can Save Primary Care
A shift away from fee-for-service and toward a population management model of healthcare wouldn't involve nurse practitioners and physician assistants replacing doctors; it would call on all providers to work together as a team.
Just like physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants are increasingly choosing to specialize, rather than to practice primary care, says a research "one-pager" from the Robert Graham Center for Policy Studies in Family Medicine and Primary Care.
On the surface, this little nugget of information might seem a bit unremarkable. After all, primary care salaries generally fall short of those in specialty fields, and practitioners face heavy financial burdens, such as education debts.
But there are more wide-ranging implications of this PA/NP subspecialty trend, and they are neatly summarized by the one-pager's title: "Relying on NPs and PAs Does Not Avoid the Need for Policy Solutions for Primary Care."
Other data has suggested that a majority of NPs graduate with primary care degrees, but those numbers don't accurately reflect where NPs actually practice a few years after graduation. (Check out another instance of measuring specialties too soon after graduation here).
Using data from the National Provider Identifier, (and assuming that NPs and PAs who practiced without a physician or co-located with a primary care physician were providing primary care), the Graham Center researchers concluded that fewer than half of PAs and slightly more than half of NPs practice in primary care.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.
Dave Mttman, PA, DFAAPA (8/28/2013 at 10:12 AM)
That it's not that easy is right. Nps and PAs are kept away from primary care by barriers that make it harder to practice than many other specialties. Put a call into the Association of Family Practice PAs and the AANP please. Get both sides of the picture. You only quote the AAFP who let me say as a PA has been rabidly against PAs and NPs doing anything more than what we are doing now. When teams really function as teams we will be on them. The AAFP does not want a team-just it running the show. Please have your commentary reflect that fact also. Dave Mittman, PA, DFAAPA
Peter McMenamin, PhD (8/27/2013 at 3:24 PM)
There are other ways of estimating primary care performance of NPs. CMS recently awarded nearly $50 million to 35,080 NPs billing Medicare Part B carriers under their own NPIs for exceptional provision of primary care services. That was more than two thirds of the NPs enrolled as Part B providers. This is explained in more detail in http://www.ananursespace.org/BlogsMain/BlogViewer/?BlogKey=ee0e605b-0499-4b47-bfe4-941fb9e13715. CMS data also reveal that of all NPs participating in Part B, only 15% indicated a non-primary care NP taxonomy when first registered for their NPI. Were Medicare to operate with a national scope of practice for APRNs like the VA or DOD, Medicare beneficiaries would have even greater access to primary care services. This is needed because between 2 to 3 million persons will age into Medicare every year for the rest of the century.

Back Space
From the Super Mario Wiki
The Back Space (also called Reverse Spaces) is a space in the Mario Party series. In Mario Party 3, it only appears in Duel Boards. If the player lands on this space, a dice block appears and the number the player hits will be the amount of spaces the player will have to go backwards. Landing on one in the board Backtrack makes players go in the opposite direction and change the positions of their partners. The Back Space also reappears in Mario Party 9 in which it serves the same function.
On the results screen in Mario Party 3, the Back Space is referred to as the "Reverse Space".

I have a new job and have fled the city so I have time again ... but no foruming at work ... but I do get home before 5 now
Hope to pop in here more often now
welcome back Shimmy; it's a bit quiet atm but maybe a few lurkers will re-appear!
We've often wondered where you were!
Yes our thread is quiet, and the forum is a bit duller than it was, I think Facebook might have done for it.
I will put the word out
I've changed my job too, similar but a much better set-up. OG is in California on hols, Tger is in Meexico on hols/daughters wedding.
Do you remember the entire company being banned from internet because I was on the forum all the time?
Hello Jim!
grrr no notifications
Hi Mr P, glad to hear you have a new job, you were hating the old one. Sooo, does the new one allow facebook access?
I've noticed that the forum is now quite as it used to be. Still the same die hard faces though.
I've got me a facebook thing (avoided it up to now) be good to catch up. Much has happened in the past 3 years ... hmmmm
OMG is it that long?
Yes I did hate that job, and the f*******g w******r IT misfit wierdo, but I'm not bitter.
so what races are people doing? my calendar currently suggests...
though currently it's only the marathon and 5k with entry forms filled in!
Hi Jim
Farnham Pilgrim marathon (sept)
Downslink ultra (Oct)
Beachy Head marathon (Oct)
Nothing else planned and not been training properly. Ooops.
Shimmy See you over on facebook. Don't use this forum much any more.........
Wow! I have been away from running for about 3 years. I am so chuffed this thread is still alive and well. Fingers crossed I get aplace at London in April. My training starts tomorrow. I hope this is not another false dawn for me!!
that's a pretty good list, OG, enjoy the mileage!
good luck Ripped, hope you're able to find that inner motivation and build up the miles strongly and steadily. Lots of hills and lots of miles. Fun fun fun!
Thanks IJ!! Baby steps....
Hey Dap we've been a bit dormant lately but but not dead yet!
RD ! Blimey, been a while since you've been on here ! Founder member
Hi all, and welcome back Shimster, it's been a long long time. The VLM14 magazine are falling through peoples letter boxes. I've had mine and it's a SORRY.
After being out of running since June with a calf injury, I started back and have a back problem now.
Hope everyone is well.
rejected from VLM, as usual.
3:46:45 at the Nottingham marathon (bit of a suprise entry as a training run!) so really happy - 25 minutes better than May's PB!
Still on a long PB streak - that's about 14 races in a row now, though to continue it through Palma and the Worksop 1/2 will require something close to a miracle!
Have fun all, be good, run well!
Shimmy and Puffy! I cannot resist: I, too, am back! Like you two, I am also in a new work situation: an excellent one so far.
Hello to all people on 3:45 whom I do not know: I was on this thread in the heyday of Shimmy, Puffy and a number of others. Am currently into ultras (did NDW50 last year in 11hours 25 mins).
Current race diary: Amsterdam, er, next week! London 2014 I'M IN!, NDW50 again (May), and possibly Chicago in the autumn.
3:45:56 at Palma, a PB by just under a minute
1:42:17 at Worksop, a PB by about 2 mins 35!
Hi, I haven't been on here for a long time. Did 4:05 pb at Houston marathon last January, trying to get under 4 hrs next January, when I will have had my 60'th bday. Chicago qualifying time is 3:55 and that is probably a step too far.
I will check out previous messages.
It's great to see that some people are still around. I have now done 109 marathons and still enjoy them, although I need to sort out quad pain during the last few miles to get back under 4 hours.
There are lots of running-related discussion groups on facebook, so please PM your address if you would like to join in some of those I belong to.
