So much new, so little time. And i was due, right? First off, it's my birthday — which is like a new age for me. Second and more important, so it should've been first, new music is on the way. One song is top secret so i can't say much yet, but let's just say we recorded a song that i didn't write. Three others i did, and they'll either be part of an ep or a string of singles — haven't decided yet — but they'll start coming out within the next couple months. The lovely Rob Draghi, Erik Philbrook and Cheri Leone added their mastery to it as usual. That's them in the pic, which brings me to the next new — new snaps! Met a great photographer named Manish Gosalia who's clearly awesome.
Oh and video! We're doing a video for one of the aforementioned new songs. My friend Dakkan Abbe will direct again, and it will be good, chock full of music and pictures.

My Unforgettable Siete Palabras
My parents are devoted Filipinistas. No, not the nationality. It is what members of the Philippine Independent Church are called. In Spanish, it is known as Iglesia Filipina Independiente or IFI. In bisaya, it is commonly known as Filipinistas or Aglipay or Aglipayan - derived from the family name of the first head of the church who is a Roman Catholic Bishop in the year 1902 named Gregorio Aglipay.
So the Philippine Independent Church is a Christian denomination which is a faction of the Roman Catholic church as a product of the the 1898 Revolution against the Spanish colonization in the Philippines.
I grew up with the tradition of our church where every Holy Thursday, we attend a Holy Mass where the Last Supper of Jesus with his apostles is reenacted. This reenactment is very significant in our church because this is when the Mystery of Transubstantiation happened - the bread and the wine becomes the body and the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ.
A day at Portofino Beach Resort - Mactan, Cebu
My husband and I woke up with a long day ahead of us and instead of spending it church-lunch-grocery-home routine, we decided its time for some fresh air with the sound of waves in the background...
We decided to go to a beach in Mactan... in just an hour we were already at Portofino Beach Resort with a pizza and some chips at hand. The place was cool considering it was quite cheap with 100-peso entrance fee and 180 pesos for the table and chairs we rented. The sun was blazing hot as we ate our cold pizza but the color of the sea was an appetizer no restaurant in the city can offer.

Brief Synopsis
The author provides a critical audit of the great RMA debate and of some actual RMA behavior and warns against a transformation that is highly potent only in a narrow range of strategic cases. He warns that the military effectiveness of a process of revolutionary change in a "way of war" can only be judged by the test of battle, and possibly not even then, if the terms of combat are very heavily weighted in favor of the United States. On balance, the concept of revolutionary change is found to be quite useful, provided it is employed and applied with some reservations and in a manner that allows for flexibility and adaptability. The contexts of warfare, especially the political, determine how effective a transforming military establishment will be.

Some heavy hitters are behind the stoves at Leland's new Tony's Pizza and Trattoria. Three of Wilmington's favorite Italian chefs are preparing food at Cross Creek Commons shopping center restaurant that previously hosted Antonio's.
Owner Tony Grippi was a beloved downtown pizza spinner for four years before opening Tony's (1107 New Point Blvd.) this week. He worked at I Love NY Pizza (28 N. Front St.), a shop founded by Grippi's business partner Frank Amato. Amato, who opened I Love New York pizza in 1999 and sold it in 2007, is the man crafting pies at Tony's. Both men have years of experience cooking and running Italian restaurants.
Having these two Sicilians in Tony's kitchen is impressive enough, but I found another surprise when I visited the restaurant this week. Many Wilmingtonians were bummed when Luigi's restaurant (now Catch at 6621 Market St.) closed a few years ago. Many asked what happened to Luigi Spina. I found him making meatballs at Tony's.
Needless to say, the Italian was flying as these cooks crafted Tony's menu for a full house at dinner. The restaurant serves pizza, stombolis, calzones, subs and numerous Italian entrees. Among the selections are baked ziti, stuffed shells, veal parmigiana, shrimp scampi and potato and pesto soup.
Sicilian specialties are sprinkled into the mix. Fresh mussels are simmered with cherry tomatoes, garlic, wine, basil and olive oil for Mussels Siciliani.
Prices range from $8 to $16. Take-out is available. Hours are 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday-Thursday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday and noon to 9 p.m. Sunday. Lunch is served until 4 p.m. Call 910-383-1300.

TypeIt4Me Touch 2.0 for iPhone and iPad now available. 11/05/2012 7 Comments
We promised you an announcement and by golly it's a doozy. After months of gruelling work we're super pleased to reveal that TypeIt4Me Touch 2.0 for iOS is finally available to download from the iTunes App Store. A nifty mobile companion to our flagship Mac product, we've rebuilt it from scratch to achieve better performance and integrated some very useful new features. This sprightly new incarnation of our text expander app - formerly known as TapIt4Me - is a free upgrade for everyone who bought version 1.0. Better still, we're offering it as a universal app optimised for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad at no extra cost. For the uninitiated, TypeIt4Me Touch 2.0 is a text expansion app that enables you to speed up typing on your iDevice. It lets you use your own custom-defined shorthand abbreviations that will expand on the fly to longer words, phrases and snippets of boilerplate text as you continue typing. Swiftly compose a note with TypeIt4Me Touch and you can email, tweet or message it to someone directly from within the app. You can also save it for later or copy it to the clipboard to quickly paste into another app. TypeIt4Me Touch is priced at a very reasonable $4.99 / £2.99 / 3.99€, so it's not going to break the bank. Optimised for iOS 5.x and designed to play nicely with TypeIt4Me for Mac and OS X 10.7 Lion, it comes with some brand spanking new features, including: ...
- iCloud support: use your TypeIt4Me abbreviations seamlessly across all your iDevices. iCloud support will be extended to the Mac version very soon, too.
- Auto-suggestion: if you switch this on in the app's settings, TypeIt4Me Touch will display suggested words and snippets above the keyboard that match the letters you're typing. Tap on these and you can really speed things along.
- A point-and-tap snippets menu: if you forget what abbreviation you assigned to a particular snippet while you're composing a note, just press a button for a handy drop-down that lists all the snippets in your active set, scroll through it and tap on the one you want to insert into the note. Bam! There it is. (Due to screen size limitations, this is an iPad-only feature.)

My doctor has me on Wellbutrin XL and Buspar, is this safe?

The goal of the project is to support the rule of law and the system of justice in Afghanistan. More than one hundred employees of the Provincial Court will use the new offices, meeting rooms and computer working stations with internet access.
"This is a great asset for all the people in Logar, who are interested in law and justice. Not only for judges, prosecutors and officials, but also for students and the wider public," said Atiqullah Ludin, governor of Logar province, during the opening ceremony. "They can find everything necessary here –computers, internet and enough space for their work and meetings," he said.
The Provincial Department of Justice also applauded the change. "Until recently, the court shared one building with our department and with the Public Prosecutor. We had been requesting for quite some time a new working space. The new offices will notonly serve the court, but the library will also be open to the employees of other bureaus, for example to the Department of Information and Culture," said Gulab Muhammad, head of the Provincial Department of Justice.
The new library offers better conditions not only for judges´meetings and for their daily work, but also for their education. Logar officials plan to provide many trainings, especially in the areas of corruption and human rights. These new meeting rooms are probably the best place in town for such events. Judges also hope that better conditions will help to get more qualified experts from the country to the province.
The project is a part of the Czech support to the governance system in Logar, which is one of three main pillars of PRT´s activity. "We consider a working government and justice system as a key condition towards a successful transition process in Afghanistan. A functional state also contributes to achieving economical development.Even such a small project as it is this new library can therefore impact the whole province," said Petr Svačina, Head of the Civilian PRT.

With the market heating up for cloud computing talent, many are rushing to learn more and updating their résumés — and a few are lying
We're seeing a lot of strategic and well-publicized hires in the cloud computing world these days, such as Cisco Systems grabbing up cloud computing mainstay and former Sun Microsystems executive Lew Tucker to oversee its cloud computing initiatives. But most of the brokering of cloud computing talent is done behind the scenes. Most companies are considering or actually moving to cloud computing, and they're seeking their own experts to make the move. Can you cash in?
However, there are far too many positions chasing far too few qualified candidates these days, and that's causing some organizations to hire less-than-qualified people. It's also causing the cost of those people to go way up. I'm interrupted daily by a headhunter looking for "cloud people," offering executive-level comp packages for very technical and tactical gigs. Who says unemployment is still a problem?
So how do you take advantage of this spike in need for cloud computing ninjas?
First, read all you can get your hands on. With the hype raging around cloud computing, there are actually only a handful of books that do a good job teaching about the cloud. Make sure to purchase books that work through the requirements and the architecture first, and then learn specific cloud computing technologies. You need a good context. Also, read all of the better cloud blogs: Having current knowledge is key these days.
Second, learn by doing. One of the great things about cloud computing is that the services are often free for a trial period. Even if there is a cost, it's nominal. So get that Google App Engine account or play around with Amazon Web Services to see how this stuff actually works. Build a few prototypes to undertand the skills along with the concepts.
Finally, don't "cloudwash" yourself. Many people seeking to take advantage of the need for cloud computing people are "cloudwashing" their résumés to make themselves seem more relevant. This is pretty transparent to anybody in the know, and it nearly guarantees your stuff tossed will be tossed in the trash. Instead, focus on relevant, real skills and knowledge. Most employers understand this is new stuff, and it shouldn't count against you if you don't have two decades of cloud computing experience. After all, who does?

A Racing Pensioner's Dream Becomes Reality ( by Phil Read)
To finalize the celebrations of Yamaha's 50th Anniversary this year I was given the honour, and trust, to ride their factory GP M1 race machine for two laps at the Imola 200 Revival. On Friday before this event the Yamaha Classic Racing Team and I were invited by Yamaha teams boss, Marco Riva, to the impressive racing head-quarters next to the famous Monza Autodrome, the venue of their first world title in 1964.
Since receiving this exciting invitation some weeks before I hadn't slept well when dreaming of its 240bhp and the fool I would look if I crashed or looped it when powering this rocket-ship out from the chicane in front of the pits!!
When entering our Yamaha pit I was even more impressed to find it fitted out as in the GP's with a blue carpeted floor and four smart factory mechanics.
Wow, I thought, this is being taken very seriously to allow this old fart to ride their prized GP machine.
After a few laps on my 1968 championship winning 250 Yamaha, the RD05A 4 cylinder machine, built and maintained by "the" Ferry Brouwer, owner of the great Yamaha Classic Racing Team, during which time my old team-mate, Agostini, had warmed up the M1′s slick tires, I was handed this latest world title winning machine on which to do my worst.
As I'd just been told that the wheelie and traction controls were unconnected I was even more worried as I short-shifted down the pit road to keep the front wheel on the tarmac as the torque was dilivered in a relenless surge. After a touch or two of the front brake to get its feeling I opened the throttle out onto this famous track to feel its arm-stretching acceleration. Too frightened to redline this bellowing engine I shifted up at 15.500rpm, the limit being at 18.500rpm, I was rocketed at a speed up to the tight Tosa bend in a way I had never before experienced, trying to tame this most valuable and fastest machine I had ever ridden and stay out of the gravel. There was little engine braking due to the selective slipper clutch but the most powerful, one finger, front brake did all I needed slow and hit this bends apex in good shape to accelerate up the hill, only daring to short-shift to keep the front wheel just pawing the air.
I now greatly admire the professional racers who can use full throttle on these most powerful factory bikes.
As I flew down to the Aqua Minerale corners I realized my mistake by earlier removing my knee sliders as slick tires the M1 on had an amazing angle of grip. But no one was expecting me to brake records but to only underline Yamaha's glorious 50 years of GP racing, in which I was involved during their first five full seasons of GP racing .
The M1 rocketed me from the Rivazza down to the tricky chicane at the end of my first lap right by the pits and past most fans and Yamaha officials. I thought I had overshot it as I had never before arrived there so fast. When straightened up on line I pulled the brake lever with two fingers and changing down with my left foot, I've always had a right gear-shifter, I decided I could make this tight chicane with some curb hopping to not look slow and unimpressive, the M1 wheeled out in good shape onto the straight. I was exhausted with fear and exalted with pleasure as I returned at speed back into the pits to the cheers of my fans and smiles of relief on the Yamaha mechanics faces. My last flying lap will always be branded in my memory. Thank you Yamaha.

401: OMB Circular A-133 Audits
Grant, Contract & Gift Accounting Manual
Section 400: Supplemental Information
Revised: 08/08/2003
The A-133 single audit is intended to provide a cost-effective audit. Efficiencies can be considerable when an organization-wide audit, or single audit, is conducted in lieu of multiple audits of individual Federal programs.
Any Non-Federal Entity that expends $500,000 or more in Federal awards in its fiscal year is required to have a single audit. OSU meets this criteria.
Non-Federal Entities subject to audit must:
- arrange for a timely audit,
- prepare appropriate financial statements and a schedule of expenditures of Federal awards,
- ensure the audit is properly completed,
- submit the single audit report when due, and
- take corrective action on audit findings.
The single audit report includes:
- the financial statements (auditee's responsibility to provide),
- a schedule of expenditures of Federal awards (auditee's responsibility to provide),
- auditor's opinions on the fair presentation of the financial statements and schedule of expenditures of Federal awards,
- auditor's report on internal control and compliance pertaining to financial reporting,
- auditor's report on internal control and opinion on compliance pertaining to major programs,
- auditor's schedule of findings and questioned costs,
- auditee's corrective action plans, and
- a summary schedule of prior audit findings which includes planned and completed corrective actions (auditee's responsibility to provide).
The auditee is responsible for submitting a report that meets the requirements of the Circular.
If the auditee is a subrecipient, it must also forward a copy of a report containing audit findings to affected pass-through entities. If the report contains no findings, the subrecipient is only required to provide the affected pass-through entities with a notification that the audit was completed.
The auditee is responsible for preparing a corrective action plan, taking corrective actions on audit findings, and reporting the status of corrective actions in subsequent reports.
An audit finding may include questioned program costs. If any of the questioned costs are disallowed by the management decision, the auditee may have to refund the disallowed amount.
Most audit reports are a matter of public record. Information is provided on the results of the audit that is entered into a database maintained by the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. The Federal Audit Clearinghouse serves as the central collection point, repository, and distribution center for single audit reports.
Cognizant Agency – Recipients who annually expend awards in excess of $25 million have a Federal cognizant agency for audit. Oregon State University's cognizant agency is the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS).
Pass-Through Entities – Recipient entities are responsible for ensuring their subrecipient(s) meet the requirements of the Circular and specific requirements of the award.
Areas that auditors review: (but are not limited to)
- Cost Sharing - Is cost share required? If so, has cost share been met and documented?
- Equipment - Was approval obtained to purchase equipment? Was any equipment purchased within the last 6 months of the project? Are title-to codes correct?
- Rebudgets – Are rebudgets properly justified? Was prior approval obtained, if required?
- Dates - Are all transactions within start and end dates of the award?
- F&A Cost Rate - Is the correct basis being used?
- Student Pay – Are time certificates properly signed?
- Reports – What reports are required? Due dates? Dates that reports were submitted?
- Subcontracts – Are subawards reviewed, approved, spent correctly in the proper time period?
- Outside Program Income – What was it for? What method was used to account for it?
- Fee remissions – Approved by sponsor? Was there associated salary? Recruitment and Retention Differential?
- Effort Reporting documentation – Do we have signed PAR forms for everyone (except students) paid on award? Do we have time sheets for students?
Occasionally, the Office of Post Award Administration may contact departments to submit documentation to help assist in the audit process. Some of those areas might be student timecards, technical reports, etc.
If the Department or PI receives notification that a sponsor is coming for a site visit or audit, the Office of Post Award Administration should be contacted so the appropriate personnel can be included in these activities.
To view additional information on Federal audits see the Office of Management and Budget's webpage on the White House website.

An urgent care center, while useful and necessary in its own right, can never be a replacement for a full-service hospital. It is an addition to one. The plan seems like an effort to appease critics who are strongly against the building of more condos, but clearly, it doesn't seem to be working.
Will Brooklyn's oldest hospital be replaced by luxury condominiums and an urgent care center? At a meeting of SUNY's Board of Trustees today, officials agreed to wait on a decision to sell Long Island College Hospital until Mayor-elect Bill de Blasio takes office.
SUNY officials say LICH operates with $500 million in liabilities, and it cannot afford to keep it open. But many residents and hospital employees have said an emergency room is needed in the community. The new urgent care center would not receive ambulance calls. SUNY faces multiple lawsuits to keep the hospital open. What should happen next?
Are you surprised to learn SUNY may want to sell LICH to a developer to build high-end condos? Is an urgent care center an acceptable replacement for a full-service hospital? Would you support a plan to transfer LICH to the City-run Health and Hospitals Corporation?
Send your thoughts using the link above.
Why would I be surprised that SUNY wants to sell to a developer? I believe that was their plan from the beginning. All of these hospitals that are suddenly a liability -- not to mention the public library branches that are at risk of being sold by their parent organization -- are "guilty" of being located in highly choice real estate markets. The motivations behind the proposed sales have nothing to do with the core function of either the hospitals or SUNY (or the public library) and everything to do with money.
BruceUpper West Side
This is going to be interesting. De Blasio put a lot of his campaign on keeping it open - now the 500 million dollar reality hits him and his team.
We have come to the point in this society that the value of life is superseded by the well being of Developers. We have Millions and Millions coming in to the city via the tourist trade that in my neighborhood, every little spot of land no to matter how small is being use to build Hotels. Bloomberg has left us a society of "Tale of two cities". The developers has a such of huge grip on the city that I don't think De Blasio can turn back. The greed of human nature that was fostered by Bloomberg has created a juggernaut that hospitals will be easily run over by money. SUNY smells the money and decided that it is more lucrative to yield to the developer gods.
Pablo Lower East Side
LICH should'nt be sold to he HHC because every neighborhood needs a full working hospital not just a urgent care center. People rely on the hospitals for their families. I know Mayor-elect Diblasio would step in and do the right thing unlike Bloomberg he didn't care. HermanUpper West Side
If de Blasio is truly committed to rectifying the issue of profit ahead of people then he must start by keeping LICH open to the community it serves.
FelixBay Ridge
This seems to have been a pattern with all of the Hospitals in New York and that beingto run it in the red and then sell so that someone can build condo's on the site.As far as holding off until DeBlasio takes office is ridiculous because he was part of the problem with the failures of these Hospitals and he stayed back and agreedto let them build these condos. In fact this whole city is being turned into high risers and all of the same peopleare still around that had a part in all of this. So for DeBlasio to act as though heis concerned is very hard to believe.I'm not sure about making a decision as to whether someone should take over, orjust have some sort of emergency clinic of some kind. How does one go with a full fledged hospital to end up with some sort of anemergency. MaxxieeMorris Park
Staten Island could use a public hospital. If the hospital is closed, open one on Staten island. We have health needs also. RoscoePark Hill
LITCH should be replaced by neighborhood medical centers located according to demand for medical services. What's de Blasio going to do? Tax the rich?Why? The rich aren't responsible for LITCH going broke.
JoePort Richmond
I am completely stunned by today's turn around. This is an incredibly gratifying victory because for the first time SUNY and its board of trustees are talking about "what the community wants."
For the first time the community feels heard!! We NEED LICH - our full service community hospital NOT more luxury condos!!!
Susan Brooklyn Heights
Why are the trustees waiting for DiBlasio to take office? Why don't they make their decision now? What are they afraid of? Is this another political move on the part of trustees to move another mega real estate developer in town? Is this about money? Are the trustees getting a slice of the pie? Sounds awfully suspicious to me.
I would like to respond to the question: Is an urgent care center an acceptable replacement for a full-service hospital?
Simply put, ABSOLUTELY NOT!
As a community we depend on ALL services of Long Island College Hospital.
Personally, I have lived in Brooklyn Heights for the past 20years. In my circle of family and friends we have relied on LICH for medical needs emergent and otherwise: ER visits due to trauma, collapsed lungs, and accidents. Major surgeries that involved joints, intestines, or hearts. Births of our little ones, even those who were premature. Cancer treatment, dialysis, dental care. Our experiences are only multiplied as the surrounding communities are considered.
No urgent care center could take care of the varied needs of the people who live in this community. No amount of financial gain from condos could be more valuable than the lives LICH saves. We need a full service hospital. We need LICH!
How can Gov. Andrew Cuomo and SUNY say that there is no money to save hospitals across New York State ?
Gov. Cuomo is now proposing a $2 billion tax cut. Those savings are coming from radical cuts made to healthcare by Gov. Cuomo.
If you stop this foolish, election-year gimmick, then we would have the resources to save our hospitals.
Lastly, Bill de Blasio better make good on his campaign promise to save our hospitals. Voters are going to keep him accountable to his promises.
Louis Jackson Heights
The hospital is needed. No one will realize how important the hospital is until there is a disaster. Stop the lies. Stop the underhanded dealings. We were sabotaged.
Please keep up the fight to save this community hospital. Brooklyn needs quality healthcare and a LICH closure would devastate and overcrowd surrounding hospitals and neighborhoods.
A politician took money from Mary Immaculate in Jamaica Queens. He gets caught, the hospital closes, and people are forced else where. They now don't even know what to do with that building! I don't trust any politician.
MZ Richmond Hill
It's a shame that Suny Downstate is fighting tirelessly to close LICH. They should close their hospital instead. Anyone can check their ratings against ours ,clearly we are a far better hospital. Suny stole our money now they want to get rid of us . Shame on you Suny. Bring our doctors back.
I don't hear anybody addressing how this Hospital can be made sustainable? Why has this Hospital been losing so much money? Perhaps a new model for healthcare delivery is needed. Maybe LICH needs a total makeover to survive.
MelaniePark Slope
I am a former NY1 employee and the last year alone I had life saving emergency surgery last year. My appendix burst on the operating table and had I attempted to go to another hospital I certainly would have died. I am a life long Cobble Hill resident, was born there and the community needs a full service hospital because the number of residents is growing exponentially and the services are shrinking.
MikeCobble Hill
The proposal to transform LICH into a mixed-use facility of luxury housing and an urgent care center equates to tomfoolery personified! When will developers & politicians stop trampling on the crucial needs & resources of the community for their benefit?
We need real hospitals, not clinics!
Arkady Queens
The neighborhood hospital is dying, but so is the concept of a neighborhood. If LICH was on the fringe of closing over twenty years ago, there would be a profound outcry, and an alliance within and outside the community, to save it. It's a sign of the times, and a unfortunate reality to digest.
Michael Woodside
I was a patient of LICH clinics. They closed them all down leaving me to have to find new doctors. Only the Emergency section open. I do not consider it full service. I feel it will be closed soon. Foolish decision!
CrystalRed Hook
It doesn't make any sense to increase population within the community with new condos and to remove a major hospital. Where are our priorities!!!!
Common Sense SUNY, if we need money how about a portion of the proceeds from LICH goes to the state.
The state should be governing for the people's safety not putting us in jeopardy.
Jennifer Forest Hills
I don't live in Brooklyn but I believe starting with the Governor and then the NY State Legislature should come up with a financial plan to make LICH work for the community. Maybe a 5 year plan to assist in funding the hospital with a special New York State Lottery as a source of funding.
It is time for the Governor to lead in this important matter. He should focus more on people and public health, not on casinos!
Is it worth keeping Lich open at the expense of losing 2 hospitals Lich and Downstate?
The facts are that the hospital has not been economically viable for many years. The community says they need it, but if they truly needed a full service hospital it would not be bankrupt. I think an Urgent Care center and an emergency room is all they need. The rest is wasted space and money. I don't want the city to take over LICH as we don't need another money-pit being paid for by local taxpayer dollars!
TomKoBulls Head
My son was born severely premature in LICH 4.5yrs ago @ 1lb 8oz., if it wasn't for LICH's NICU we're not sure if my son would have survived. Not to mention I was there for all of my prenatal care and emergency needs during a sensitive pregnancy as well as other emergency needs and doctors visits over the years. My husbands family has lived in Carroll Gardens for over 45yrs now. All of our doctors have been affiliated with LICH. This institute is a crucial part of this ever growing community. Nothing good can come of closing this hospital. It's actually frightening to think this more than just a possibility.
JaniceCarroll Gardens
First it was St Vincent now Downtown MC. Which next ? I think America is slowly grinding to a halt! That will make America the world power with the shortest live-span in the history of the world and I am seriously worried. Converting to condos is a sell-out!
OLA The Bronx
I'm not an expert on this topic, but it strikes me that there must be some decent arguments for closing this hospital, and watching this show is not giving me any argument for closing it so I can't make an informed decision. If you only interview people who live near the hospital, or employees, of course they are all going to be for keeping it open. Is it really as simple as luxury condos vs. a full service hospital? Maybe it is, but I'm guessing it's more complicated than that.
Jonathan Upper West Side
I'm a nurse at LICH, I've been a patient there and I live in the community. The hospital is seriously needed in this area. Even though SUNY has done it's best to destroy LICH, we're still here, and still very much needed as a full service hospital. I frequently see patients that say they won't go anywhere else. I think the trustees are getting nervous; maybe Cuomo is thinking about re-election. An urgent care center won't cut it. Brooklyn has enough condos.
Some of New York State's and the country's finest doctors came from SUNY downstate. Is there a plan for where all these doctors will be trained? Out of the country?
People can't live in the condos if they don't have good jobs and access to health care.
Susan Upper East Side
Hospitals basically operate with deficit because reimbursement rates do not cover expenses at 100%! So, the community might have avoided closure but the main issue remains , can the hospital or any hospital operate realizing a profit. This city cannot really afford to operate acute care facility and make a profit! That's what the community needs to be aware of. If the community gets LICH fully operational be aware that the community needs to demand either higher reimbursement rates or more cost efficient quality care!

The SNS Credentialing Exam is comprised of 200 multiple choice questions and candidates have four hours to complete it. Use the SNS Exam Content/Knowledge Areas and Resource List to prepare for the exam. Download the New SNS Credentialing Exam Handbook to view the requirements, fees and application form. Exam Prep Tips:Exam candidates may have been away from a test-taking environment for sometime, therefore, it is recommended that candidates: Begin preparing for the exam as soon as possible. Waiting until the last minute and cramming is discouraged. Review the content/knowledge areas that are understood and used on a daily basis. Plan in-depth study and preparation for those content/knowledge areas that are less familiar. Notice the percentage weight and number of questions per content/knowledge area. Those areas with a high percentage of questions are a significant portion of the exam, and therefore, require more time of study. Use of the SNS Credentialing Exam Handbook alone will not guarantee passing the SNS Credentialing Exam. Review the Exam Resource List. Thorough reading, study, and understanding is necessary to achieve a passing score on the exam. Study efforts should cover the resources listed. Use the sample questions included in the SNS Credentialing Exam Handbook for practice. The sample questions are NOT part of the SNS exam. Form a study group with other exam candidates in the area. Interacting with other exam candidates and discussing the content outline of the exam can be helpful. Contact a School Nutrition Specialist at the local chapter or at the State Affiliate for mentoring.

How to Create a Winning Tagline
by Ilise Benun
Ilise Benun, author of "Self Promotion Online" and "Designing Websites For Every Audience," is the founder of Marketing Mentor, a 6-month one-on-one coaching program through which the self-employed learn how to promote their talents and services. Sign up for her free e-mail tips at www.marketing-mentor.com.
The name of your company or consulting practice can offer prospects a clue into the work you do, which is especially necessary if it's not readily understood, but if it bears your name, you'd better have a tagline to do the explaining.
A tagline is a sentence or phrase -- memorable and easy to understand -- that conveys the essence of your business in a nutshell. An effective tagline will ideally answer three questions:
Of course, fitting the answers to those three questions into a single brief statement is not always possible. Many authors and professional speakers use the "How to X with Y using Z" formula to create book and speech titles that sell. After all, the prospect is looking for X – the solution – so why not start the tagline with the solution?
The more specific your tagline can be the better. Many consultants make the mistake of thinking that they'll be casting a wider net if they keep it vague. They think "Providing marketing consulting for businesses of all sizes" is a good tagline. What they fail to realize is that no business is "of all sizes" and a business person knows whether he or she is running a small business, a medium-sized business, a venture-funded business, a publicly traded business, or whatever. They will be more comfortable with a consultant that specializes in serving businesses of their size.
The same is true for industry specialization. A retailer will prefer to work with a consultant that specializes in retailers. A multi-channel retailer will prefer to work with a consultant that specializes in that small niche.
Therefore, using a general tagline is a waste of your time, because you will attract many leads that are not appropriate for you and you will have to spend time weeding them out. It's a common mistake to think that more leads are better, but chasing poor leads is very expensive, particularly as a consultant, when converting leads into sales often takes an investment of many (unpaid) hours meeting and creating customized proposals. Helping appropriate prospects find you and inappropriate prospects avoid you is part of the job of your tagline.
Your tagline should be flexible enough to change depending on whom you're talking to. If, for example, you're talking to a software company and you consider that industry one of your specialties, then by all means, make sure that's the "who you do it for" when they see or hear your tagline.
Many consultants get caught up with explaining how they do what they do when clients are looking for the return on investment, the end result or the benefit to them – lower customer acquisition costs, richer customer understanding, more sales closed.
How to Create a Winning Tagline
Once you've come up with a good one, read your tagline out loud
several times. Can you say it in conversation without being self conscious?
If not, find the words you're getting hung up on and try substituting
those out.
And lastly, let your tagline change and evolve as you build your business, as it is sure to do. You can always print more business cards.

Bulls Charge Into Walgreen
By Mike Yamamoto of OptionMonster
NEW YORK -- Walgreen (WAG) reached new all-time highs Tuesday, and the bulls were looking for even more gains.
OptionMonster's tracking systems detected heavy buying in the March 65 calls, with premiums more than tripling from 55 cents to $1.68 as the session unfolded. More than 12,000 changed hands against previous open interest of just 127 contracts, with more than two-thirds of the total trading in a single block of 8,288 that was purchased for the ask price of 82 cents.
These calls lock in the price where shares can be purchased through mid-March at a fraction of the cost of the stock itself. The contracts can provide substantial leverage in profiting from a move higher while limiting the amount of capital at risk.Walgreen shares surged 5.85% to finish Tuesday at $64.20 after peaking at $64.71 just minutes before the close. The drugstore chain fell for most of January but bounced off support around $56 early this month, erasing the earlier losses as monthly same-store sales beat forecasts last Thursday. The stock is also up more than 10% since being recommended during our proprietary Market Action webinar on Feb. 5. Overall option volume was eight times greater than average, with calls accounting for a bullish 63% of the total. Yamamoto has no positions in WAG.

Vessels as war reparations
Finnish shipyards delivered over 500 different
vessels to the Soviet Union as war reparations. A majority of the vessels were manufactured using a new
welding method, which kept the welding technology department of VTT's metal technical laboratory busy.
In the 1970s, especially the shipbuilding industry gained benefits from VTT's corrosion research.
power plants
The construction and operation of the first nuclear power plants also required information on material
endurance under high pressure and temperature. ulation of the actual corrosive conditions in nuclear power plants.
In modern materials research, new possibilities are opened by, for example, nanotechnology, which VTT has
utilised in coating manufacturing, etc. The sol-gel coatings developed by VTT improve the functional
characteristics of various surfaces, making them dirt-repellent, easy to clean, resistant to corrosion and oxidation, scratch-proof and wear-resistant.
Nanotechnical coatings have increased the functionality and efficiency of lift surfaces, combustion boilers
and filtration solutions for professional kitchens.

However great the clothes might be, this family isn't selling it well. But in case you're still interested in the clothes, the collection launches in stores on October 22.

Recap: How Green Is the Internet?
How green is the Internet? That's a great question. Not coincidentally, it's also the name of a summit meeting today at Google headquarters. (You can watch live at www.youtube.com/googlegreen.)
Participants make up an intriguing mix of experts from industry, academia, government and NGOs. For our part, ITI is helping to explore emerging questions around the environmental impacts and benefits of the Internet, and the data centers that drive many of the services on which people around the world rely.
These questions are significant. As the digital revolution evolves into the mobility revolution, with smartphone and tablet owners expecting connectivity to their services from anywhere, at anytime, all this activity and data requires 24/7 infrastructure. This means thousands of data centers and networks of networks must be accessible and operating seamlessly.
Clearly, this has environmental consequences – on the whole, very positive ones. Moving greater numbers of bits instead of atoms should make future economic activity more sustainable, not less. There are many studies that confirm this view. However, most of these studies are dated (at least in IT time) and don't reflect the cutting-edge technologies that are driving progress.
For instance, the last governmental study on data center energy use was published in 2007, using 2005-6 data. In the life of IT, a six-year-old study, using data that are seven or eight years old, is archaic. That's one reason why ITI is supporting legislation, H.R. 540, introduced by Representatives Anna Eshoo, D-Calif., and Mike Rogers, R-Mich., which includes a mandate for a new U.S. Department of Energy-led update to this study.
At the summit, I'll lead two breakouts on e-commerce. Our goal is to identify potential impacts and benefits of the Internet in the e-commerce arena, determine key questions, and identify paths forward. While I'll be curious as to whether participants think we have up-to-date data to support our conversation, I'm more interested in hearing where the experts think the e-commerce sector is headed and what innovations are around the corner. What new transformations are coming, and how can industry and government work together to ensure that they will result in future sustainability as well as growth?
Follow the event online and share your own observations. A green Internet is going to be a central part of everyone's future.

Fri., December 20, 11:46 PMNwelinoo, you posted ieertnsting subjects. If we have to look at prediction, prophecy, astrology and so on' in terms of Buddhism it is important to look at them as separate. Buddhism in a nutshell is to rid oneself of greed, hatred and ignorance. Baedin is something like looking one's future through a window but one has to be mindful there are many unkown factors involved. In today's term, it's like constructing a computer model'. But if one has to recount on Pattana (the teaching of anatta) there is karma pyiccayaw' and vibaga pyiccayaw' which has to be taken into account. The Buddha said, What you are is what you have been; what you will be is what you do now. Karma does not decay like external things, or even become inoperative. It cannot be destroyed by time, fire or water'. Its power will never disappear, until it is ripened. Was this answer helpful?

Thu., December 19, 7:17 AMဒ ကဗ လ သတ ရသ တယ Robert Frost (1874 1963). Mountain Interval. 1920. 1. The Road Not Taken TWO roads diverged in a yoellw wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.

With a generator, you can use your power tools anywhere on the job site without the need for a separate electrical outlet. Sears carries a full range of heavy-duty generators from Craftsman and Briggs & Stratton that provide up to 48 kilowatts of power. Operate your tools on-site with a Craftsman portable generator, or invest in a standby generator for your home in case of blackouts. We also have solar and wind generators if you prefer an eco-friendly alternative to electric and gas-powered models.
Combine the power of a portable Craftsman generator with the efficiency of Craftsman nailers to get the job done quickly. Whether you work on-site or at your home, a DeWalt brad nailer helps you to hammer in nails with more accuracy and precision than when using a standard manual hammer. Use a brad nailer to hammer in finishing nails on your kitchen cabinetry, or complete the framework for your new garage with a generator, a Senco nailer and packs of framing nails. Choose from straight and angled nailers with adjustable depth drives and a single or bounce-fire operation.
Generators also come in handy for powering your air compressors and other air tools as you work. As an example, set up a portable generator on-site, and plug in the Craftsman 33-gallon portable air compressor into one of the generator's electrical outlets. You now have an efficient power source and an air source for using your brad nailers or cutting tools. For mechanical tasks, stock your garage with air tools such as grease guns and Craftsman impact wrenches. For woodworking, a Craftsman nailer and an Ingersoll Rand air drill work best for joining or drilling through wooden planks and boards.
Cleaning the car or washing the house seems like a chore unless you have electric pressure washers to ease the workload. Invest in a Craftsman or a Stanley pressure washer that provides up to 2,220 PSI and that plugs into any standard electrical outlet. You can even use a portable generator to power your electric pressure washer on the job site. With a Stanley pressure washer, you have access to a 20-foot high-pressure hose, a turbo nozzle and an automatic shut-off system that prolongs the washer's pump life. Like portable generators, an electric pressure washer's compact size makes it easy to store in the garage or a tool chest when you don't need it.
Use a generator on-site when you don't have an electrical outlet nearby. Power your air tools and brad nailers with an air compressor and a Craftsman generator, and use electric pressure washers to remove dirt and debris from your house or the driveway with ease. Come to Sears when you want affordable power tools for all of your on-site or at-home construction needs.

Fitness Gear 300 lb Olympic Weight Set 288 288
Poor precision weights, terrible bar, returned set Pros:(trying to think of a few) . Ok spring clips Knurling has nice feel . Cons: . Weighing the various plates, they were wildly inconsistent (+/- 4 lbs). If I were to put 45's and 35's on the bar with the set I got without checking beforehand the bar could be lopsided by up to 10 1/2 lbs.(-4+3 -3 +1/2) On one of my 45's there was a noticeable diameter difference. Hole in plates not a tight fit on bar. Paint job is very poor--silver paint globbed all over with sloppy lettering and weight labels and quite a few globs where the painter dripped nowhere near the lettering. . The bar is cheap and low quality. The sleeves are ribbed and awkwardly designed.This is a bolted sleeve design and after contacting customer service I found out that it is only a 63k PSI bar.(It took 4 Customer service people before I got someone who knew what tensile strength or PSI was and escalation to the corporate level to get an answer.) Poor spinning sleeves with lots of wobble and noise. . I ended up returning this set and through cyber monday sales getting an Again Faster bar ($155), two pairs of Muscledriver bumper plates($154) and a small set of iron plates($60). You get what you pay for. That said, you can score better than this set at goodwill or play it again after peoples new years resolutions break down--sometimes they have vintage York stuff. :) December 15, 2014
its a weight set, works great good price, works really well with the half rack I bought from Dicks. December 4, 2014
Knurled sleeves The set is great for the money. Bearings in the sleeves are smooth and free. The only thing I don't like is the deep sharp ridges machined into the sleeves, which makes it difficult to slide weights off and rips the paint while doing it. I don't know what their reason was for doing this. December 1, 2014
great buy Bought as a gift for my husband, and teenage boys & they love it. December 1, 2014
Great Purchase! Bought this set for $199, with free shipping. Enough weight to get started for a great price, but would only buy on-line, with free shipping... December 1, 2014
It's worth the money Ordered on line and they arrived in 3 shipments without any damage. November 30, 2014
Great Product Not sure how to rate this. Seems to be very solid. No issues so far. November 26, 2014
Great starter set For the money, this is a great set. $200 to get 300 lbs of weight and a half way decent bar is just what I needed to get into strength training. I'm sure if I had to pay $200-300 for the bar and another $200-300 for weights I wouldn't have jumped right in. The knurl on the bar is good, not too smooth and not too rough. I haven't noticed any overt bar bending over 300lbs yet. The collars are nice and tight. The weight plates aren't works of art, and don't fit the bar that well (a little loose, not too tight) but the built in handles are nice when loading a squat rack at shoulder level. The plates are not regulation diameter. For deadlifts, I just bought 2 bumper plates so the lift is regulation. That way, the bumpers are touching the ground and not the iron plates, which helps protect the surface underneath. All in all a great value and a decent product that withstands some abuse. November 20, 2014
Good product. Worth buying. The plates are very good, and easy to handle. The bar is fair. The spring collars are worthless. So I threw them away and bought a pair of Raw-Built collars...and they work great. November 19, 2014
High quality set at a great price. I've been scouting a new olympic weight set for the past few weeks. They typically run around 450 dollars for a decent 300LB set. Even at the higher price range, the reviews were hit and miss. Then I looked at Dicks. I didn't go to them first because I never took them for a weight lifting retailer, but more golf and baseball. I was pleasantly surprised when I found this set on their website at this price point. Looked at online inventory at my local store at went there at lunchtime to buy it. They loaded my car up for me and off I went. Went home and set it up and went back to work. All within an hour. I am a Dicks Sporting Goods fan now. Great set at a great price. November 17, 2014
