Surge of flu patients taxes area hospital emergency rooms
BY MONIFA THOMAS AND MITCH DUDEK Staff Reporters January 7, 2013 9:28PM
Updated: February 9, 2013 6:33AM
Eleven Illinois hospitals had to turn away most patients from their emergency rooms Monday night because of a surge of people with flu symptoms.
The hospitals that were on bypass — a temporary diversion of ambulances to other hospitals because of the volume of patients — included Northwestern Memorial Hospital; University of Chicago Medical Center; Advocate Christ Medical Center; Swedish Covenant Hospital, and Presence of Our Lady of the Resurrection Medical Center. Only one hospital had gone off bypass as of 6:30 p.m.
"Emergency departments are getting overrun with people with respiratory illness," said Melaney Arnold, spokeswoman for the Illinois Department of Public Health. "We are seeing an increase in influenza cases."
If you've had flu for more than two days, Arnold recommended getting rest and drinking lots of fluids rather than going to the emergency room because any treatment would be effective only within 48 hours of getting the flu.
At Rockford Memorial Hospital, which went on bypass at 3:45 p.m. Monday and was still on at 9 p.m., "We don't have any beds in the house open, they're all full" because influx of flu patients, spokeswoman Lisa Lund said.
Sonja Vogel, a spokeswoman for West Suburban Medical Center, said a spike in flu patients may have contributed to the decision to go on bypass.
Several of the other hospitals that went on bypass disagreed that their bypass status was because of influenza, though few offered alternative explanations.
"Certainly we're not on bypass because of flu. We just have a large volume of patients this evening. That is not unusual for a medical center that has over 100,000 patients visits a year." a spokesman from Advocate Christ Medical Center.
Arnold said 11 hospitals on bypass "is not a good number," but she noted that those hospitals were spread out over different regions. So patients would have been able to find another hospital close by.
And patients suffering from a severe case, such as stroke, would have been seen at a hospital that was on bypass, Arnold said.
Dr. Jacquelyn Whitten, director of emergency department obstetrics and critical care for Advocate Trinity Hospital ,who was brought into the ER to help with the load of patients, said the ER was packed with people, but nothing that hospitals can't handle.
"It's different if you're somewhere in some crisis and there's a storm or something that can cut off water supply. Or if this were continuing on for three, four months," Whitten said. "But that's not what's happening here."

If the amount of money people are willing to drop into slot machines is any indication, the Arizona economy is showing some slight signs of life.
New figures from the Arizona Department of Gaming show that the tribes took in nearly $1.7 billion last year. While that is an increase of less than 1 percent from the prior year, it marks the first uptick in four years.
But it still remains about 15 percent below the peak hit before the slide.
"I think that's an indication, maybe, of a slow economic recovery that is beginning to take hold,'' said Mark Brnovich, the state gaming director.
"We know that we've seen gaming revenues increase when the economy's good,'' he explained. "And when the economy slows down, people are spending less of their discretionary income.''
That $1.7 billion figure represents gross gaming revenues: what the tribes had left after they paid out in winnings but before other expenses like payroll and utilities.
By law, the actual amount wagered in tribal casinos is confidential.
But the law also requires that at least 80 percent of the "handle'' must go back out in winnings. That makes the tribes' share, which amounts to 20 percent or less, the only public indication of how much Arizonans are pumping into gaming machines.
Revenues from individual tribes are not made public.
Wendell Long, chief executive of the Sol Casinos operated by the Pascua Yaqui Tribe in Southern Arizona, said he has not seen any significant signs that people are finally willing to part with more of their cash.
"We're still stagnant,'' he said.
"We're seeing our guest counts go up dramatically,'' Long said, an indication that people still are interested in gaming. "But our 'spend per guest' is down.''
Long said that won't pick up until the economy comes back. But he said there are things the tribe can do to push things along.
One of those will go online next month when the tribe opens a new 215-room resort, complete with a conference center and "the largest ballroom in Tucson.''
Long said all that should not only bring more visitors to the casino but, now with a place to stay, convince them to stay overnight. And it also will enable the tribe to attract convention business.
Brnovich said while the signs look good, he is making no predictions of when gaming revenues will get back on track.
"Of course this is a fragile recovery,'' Brnovich said.
"We don't know what's going to happen with the U.S. debt situation, what's going to happen in Europe,'' he continued. "And all that may impact the overall recovery.''
Brnovich — and the state — have more than a passing interest in the trend in casino gaming revenues.
Under the terms of a deal approved by voters in 2002, the tribes got exclusive right to operate casinos in the state. In exchange, they agreed to provide a share of the revenues to the state, on a sliding scale from 1 percent to 8 percent of gross revenues, depending on how much each takes in.
For the last budget year, revenue sharing totaled $78.8 million, a figure that state gaming officials said is about $900,000 more than the prior year.

Give those computer geeks some respect. Computer science majors edged out accounting students as the grads getting the most job offers this year, reports the National Association of Colleges and Employers.
It was the first time since 2008, when NACE first began tracking job offers, that computer science majors have led the list.
The survey showed 56.2% of computer science majors who have applied for a job got an offer. Accounting was second with 53.8%.
Education majors were having the toughest time with only 19.5% receiving an offer. English majors had a 23.5% offer rate and 28.7% of students in health care fields got an offer.
The job market is a little better this year for grads than last year. NACE said 41.2% of grads overall received at least one job offer this year compared to 38.2% last year.

Angular effects play a central role in essentially all non-trivial optical configurations, and can be well-described within a Helmholtz-type nonparaxial framework. We report recent results modelling spatial solitons interacting with cubic-quintic material interfaces, and extend related considerations to periodically-patterned optical media.

Venezuela's unpredictable dictator appeals to Jesus to heal his cancer
He's been tied to narco-terrorism, al-Qaida, the Taliban and widespread corruption. Now, Hugo Chavez appears on national TV pleading with Jesus to heal his cancer that has defied Cuban doctors.
arrived in office in 1999 has been a bit like the dance of the seven veils," noted the Economist magazine a few years ago.
His pilgrimage to Iran's sacred Islamic shrine to the Imam Rida, caused an uproar in the Iranian press, reported Australia's News Limited. Outraged Muslims criticized him "of being a communist and an atheist. They further criticized the Islamic Republic for allowing him to enter the shrine."
The Fars News Agency defended officials' allowing Chavez to visit the shrine, saying in part that the Venezuelan leader "believes that Jesus Christ will come along with Imam Mahdi to fill the world with justice." The Mahdi is the Shi'ite Messiah, whose pending return is anticipated by Chavez's friend, the Iranian President. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has lectured the U.N. General Assembly on numerous occasions about the Mahdi. Ahmadinejad believes the Mahdi will usher in an era in which all nations will convert to Islam, resulting in world peace.
Recently, native Venezuelans shamans wearing parrot feathers and beads also held a healing ritual for Chavez at a Caracas plaza in May, performing traditional dances and chants, and kneeling on the ground in prayer. "The objective is to inject the leader of the Bolivarian Revolution with positive energy," said Jesus Antonio Juagivioy, a chieftain from the president's home state of Barinas who participated in the ceremony. "We pray for his total recuperation and we know the spirits of our ancestors will help."
Chavez is certainly not the first Latin American Marxist to proclaim his Christian faith. In 2011, Nicaragua's longtime Communist leader Daniel Ortega suddenly proclaimed his Christian faith during his re-election bid. His campaign rallies often included religious processions, chants and his campaign slogan "Christian, Socialist and In Solidarity."
"Ortega's campaign strategy dismayed Catholic Church leaders," reported the Associated Press, "who called his use of spirituality part of a ploy to deceive voters."

It's the season finale of "Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood" tonight and Tori Spelling couldn't be more excited!
Spelling shares on her blog, ediTORIal, that the season finale will include her baby shower and the birth of baby Hattie.
Tori shared this adorable newborn photo of Hattie as well as some clips that weren't used in the show.
Tori notes, "All of the gifts from the shower were donated to mamas in need and it was really special to visit baby2baby, the charity we donated to."
She also shares that before Hattie was born, she spent "quality time with Liam and Stella, as they get ready for a new sibling."
Spelling says of the finale, "Tune in tonight to see exclusive, yet tasteful, footage from Dean's iPhone video of Hattie's birth (not to be missed!) and witness our shock firsthand as we are told for the first time "it's a girl!" Plus the tearjerker of it all… see Liam and Stella meet their baby sister for the very first time! It's all tonight on the season finale of "Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood" at 10pm/9c on Oxygen! And Dean and I will be chatting LIVE on Oxygen at 9:30 ET tonight!"

One of the main indicators of a city's growth and potential growth is venture capital investments.
Austin Business Journal Editor Colin Pope said there was a slight drop in the big time money this year—venture-backed companies dropped 8 percent in 2012 compared to 2011.
It's a figure that was consistent nationwide, but the Capital City did not see as much of a drop as other cities in the country.
Pope said expect to see the numbers head back up in 2013, especially as software and mobile device technology continues to boom.

America's best brew? Beer Advocate Magazine says so

PORTSMOUTH — Ben Franklin once wrote, "Beer is living proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."
In its last distribution, it took only three weeks for the much sought-after beer to sell out, said Mott, but the passionate beer brewer admitted that they still receive a few emails a week requesting the popular brew. Some come from as far away as Australia.

The 1920s were about much more than flappers and bootleggers. Like our own age, it was a time of heightened tensions between tolerance and bigotry, wealth and poverty, freedom and oppression. These are the issues that inform my historical mysteries. Each book is set in a different U.S. state, contains real historical figures–including my sleuth, Sarah Kaufman–and some of the decade's most memorable courtroom trials. I invite you to travel with me back to this dazzling, tumultuous era; to its bright lights, dark paths and dangerous truths.
Coming Soon!
Los Angeles, 1928. Oil. Oranges. And the site of a stock scandal to rival any in American history. As one of the scandal's victims, Sarah is in the city for the trial of the perpetrators but ends up jeopardizing everything she holds dear to find justice for a dead woman she barely knew.
Ona's Next Event:
3rd World Congress on Guardianship,

Telenor offers lowest rates to mobile phones
Press Releases:
Telenor announces an offensive price guarantee for its fixed line customers: -- Our customers will enjoy the lowest prices available when they call from their home phone to a mobile phone, says Telenor Privats Director of Information, Ole Tom Nomeland. This price guarantee applies to calls to Telenor Mobils subscribers.
On 15 June Telenor will cut the price from fixed line phones to Telenor Mobil by NOK 0.21 per minute. The new price will be NOK 1.48/minute, which represents a price cut of 12 per cent. This reduction applies both to Telenors private and corporate customers. In combination with Telenors discount plans, this will offer very competitive prices to Telenors customers.
In addition to the price cut, private individuals can receive a discount of up to 20 per cent on this type of call. The lowest price for calling from a fixed line phone to a mobile phone will be NOK 1.18 per minute then. Other discount plans are available to the corporate market.
Lowest price in the world
-We want to offer the lowest prices for a type of call that will benefit most people, says Nomeland. He advises that calls to mobile phones is the type of call that is growing the most, and it represents a significant portion of many peoples phone bill. -Norway has perhaps the lowest prices in the world for calls from fixed line to mobile phones, and Telenor intends to stay in the forefront, he maintains.
Additional price cuts
This new price offensive comes at the same time as Telenor has announced major price cuts for international fixed line calls. These cuts will represent a total price reduction of 16 per cent.
-I can promise you that these price cuts will be for calls to countries our customers call a lot, says Telenors Ole Tom Nomeland. -Also here it is the bottom line that is important to our customers, not if the prices are lower for calls to countries they have hardly ever heard of, he says.

"This was great. I didn't have crushed tomotoes so I used a can of diced tomatoes and added some tomato sauce. I added some Italian seasoning too. I made spaghetti sauce before and cooked it a tad too long and it wasn't firm like spaghetti, this time it came out perfect. Very filling and all veggies, so good!"
"I love this recipe!! It is so versatile, you can make little tweaks with different veggies and it is so yummy. I doubled the recipe, add 1/8 tsp of cayenne pepper (red pepper) just for a ever so slight kick. I simmer it on low-med for almost an hour to really blend all the flavors. Oh and I add the zucchini about 5-10 minutes before it's ..."

"So yummy! I just cut up eggplant not knowing what I was going to do with it, until I came across this recipe. It was so quick and easy. I had extra breading so I added some zucchini and threw it in the pan.
I changed a few things around; I used less oil. I didn't have straight parsley so I used Italian seasoning just ..."
"Super quick and yummy. Coincidently I made another one of 'Engrossed' dishes yesterday - Mexican Eggplant, also excellent!! I am going to be looking for more recipes from this chef."
"Super easy and so yummy!! The second time I made it I used a whole jar of tomato sauce (Classico Spicy Red Pepper) 24 oz. It was perfect!"
"My husband LOVES this recipe. We eat ground turkey quite often. My MIL also loved it and admitted she doesn't normally like ground turkey. She couldn't even tell the difference. Thank you! PS: I did only use 1/4 cup of catsup, but I have made it both ways and it's just as good either way."
"I was looking for a quick recipe for broccoli, that included ingrediants I had in the house. This was perfect!! My husband doesn't like mushrooms and I warned him that he may not like it. He loved it, as did everyone else. Even my MIL said she was going to 'try' to make it. Obviously she doesn't realize how quick and easy it is."
"This is so easy and delicious. I love Buffalo wings, but not all the fat and breading (yes, here in New England most restaurants put breading on them).I grew up outside of Buffalo and I appreciate the low-fat version of the real thing!!"
"This was very good and easy to make. We omitted the lemon juice and added a little more thyme. It was yummy!! I will certainly make this again."

Dilemma: How Do I Create the Perfect Gallery Wall?
"The best way to start is by deciding what you want to use to anchor the layout," Scot Meacham Wood says. "I usually vary the sizes of artwork, but I like having two or three large, important pieces to help focus the eye and they usually tend to hover towards the middle of the gallery space." If you're working with a group of artwork that's cohesive, you should stick frame styles and sizes that reflect the theme of the work. For example, hang similar images in the exact same size in a grid. If it's a larger collection with more variety, you should also vary the frame the styles.

NEW YORK - JetBlue Airways Corp. will start offering limited e-mail and instant messaging services for free on one of its planes next week as airlines renew efforts to offer in-flight Internet access.
General Web surfing and e-mail attachments won't be permitted because of bandwidth constraints, and services on laptops and handhelds with Wi-Fi wireless access will be limited to e-mail and messaging from Yahoo.
Passengers can check other personal and work e-mail — but only on two BlackBerry models that have Wi-Fi wireless capabilities, under a deal with BlackBerry maker Research In Motion Ltd.
AMR Corp.'s American Airlines is among the carriers planning to test broader, fee-based in-flight Internet services in coming months.
The JetBlue system is scheduled to make its debut Tuesday on Flight 641 from New York to San Francisco. The aircraft, an Airbus A320, is specially designated "BetaBlue" as it is used to test new entertainment services offered through JetBlue's subsidiary, LiveTV.
JetBlue will be using a wireless spectrum that LiveTV bought from the Federal Communications Commission last year for $7 million. Because Internet access will use Wi-Fi and not cellular signals, the company said, it does not violate federal regulations.
Brett Muney, JetBlue's general manager for product development, said the airline received certification from the Federal Aviation Administration to use the system on A320 aircraft.
Use of laptops and BlackBerry devices will still be barred during takeoff and landing. And the cellular portion of the permitted BlackBerry devices — the 8820 and the Curve 8320 — must be turned off during the flight.
Glenn Fleishman, editor of the Wi-Fi Networking News site, said he knew of no commercial airline currently offering such services, though many will start debuting them next year.
Some international carriers had started offering in-flight Internet service through Boeing Co., but the aircraft maker decided about a year ago to pull the plug on its service after the 2001 terrorist attacks triggered an industrywide downturn.
Boeing had deals with major international carriers, but large U.S. carriers were reluctant to invest in the service.
The Boeing system connected to the Internet via satellites. The JetBlue system will use about 100 ground towers — cheaper to operate, but with less capacity.

January 25, 2010 - "A Lovers Hymn" and Songs naming the 12 months
In 1959 or '60, I heard a song on the radio, but never once heard it again. The title may be something about a lovers hymn.
Believe me, I have checked everywhere but can find no mention anywhere of such a tune. I recall it has an R&B flavor to it, with a male lead voice and a female group backing him.
Fontane Sisters
Did I really hear this? I'm beginning to wonder if all of this is only in my mind.
You are my last resort.
- Jim Goyette, Ft. Myers, Fla.
After trying so hard on your own to solve this mystery, you deserve an answer. Even if it is from your last resort.
Your recollection of the facts is excellent, it is indeed "A Lovers Hymn" issued in April 1959 (Dot 15943), by the Fontane Sisters.
Though this single did not make the national charts it did get some regional air play, which you obviously know.
You even describe accurately the male lead singer and the female backup; however, just from seeing the record label you could not know anyone other than the Fontane Sisters is involved.
The male singer you hear is Charlie Singleton, who is also the writer of "A Lovers Hymn." Strangely, Singleton is not credited as a performer anywhere on the label - this despite his being the primary voice on the session.
Not crediting a backup singer or orchestra is not uncommon. Failing to even make mention of the lead singer is practically unheard of.
A scattered few records exist with no artist credit whatsoever, but I do not recall one like this Dot single. Granted, the Fontane Sisters were the bigger name act, but at least something like "The Fontane Sisters with [or Featuring] Charlie Singleton" should have been used.
Now you'll be pleased to know you can easily listen to "A Lovers Hymn" on YouTube. Even the inexplicable label is pictured.
Last month when I heard Dean Martin singing "June in January" I thought how very unusual it is hearing two different months mentioned in a title.
Might there be one with three? I can't think of any.
Also, is each of the 12 months represented in at least one song title on records? For example, I do not know of any title including February, March, August, or November.
Dean Martin
March is a near-impossible one, as all of those I find are about marching, such as
"March from the River Kwai" and "March of the Penguins."
- Marcy Galloway, Green Bay, Wisc.
By answering the second question, your first one shall also be satisfied.
The names of all 12 months can be found in song titles, and I will provide one hand-picked example of each as proof:
"June in January" (Dean Martin, 1959);
"February Sunshine" (Giant Sunflower, 1967);
"Winds of March" (Journey, 1978);
"April Love" (Pat Boone, 1957);
"First of May" (Bee Gees 1969);
"June Night" (Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra, 1957);
"July 12, 1939" (Charlie Rich, 1970);
"June, July, and August" (Freddy Cannon, 1962);
"September in the Rain" (Dinah Washington, 1961);
"October" (U2, 1981);
"November Rain" (Guns N' Roses, 1992);
"December 1963 (Oh What a Night)" (4 Seasons, 1976).
Over the past 70 years (1940-2009) only twice did the nation's No. 1 Pop song have a month in the title: Pat Boone's "April Love" (1957) and "December 1963 (Oh What a Night)," by the 4 Seasons (1976).
"November Rain," by Guns N' Roses, reached No. 3, as did Freddy Cannon's "June, July, and August," but only because its flip side is "Palisades Park." "June, July, and August," a tune about summer vacation ("gonna shout... school is out"), is also the answer to your first question.
Special thanks to Kenneth Atlas, of Cashbox magazine, for assistance in preparing this feature.

A comfortable fleece pad and table warmer in one and includes elastic corner straps to keep pad in place.
My patients love it!
The fleece warmer fits the table well, stays in place and has simple controls.
In my opinion, all of the table warmers offered are a lot more expensive than they need to be but my patients seem to think this one is golden! :)
The table warmer works really well and I like that it just has 2 settings and is really simple. I start with it on high and when the client gets on the table switch it to low and it is perfect!
Very nice product. I like the fact it covers the whole table. Seems very cozy.
I've had this warmer for over 2 yrs. now, and it's traveled all over with me. I have private clients, and they all love the warmth this gives. It's reliable and warms quickly- never had an issue! Very pleased with this item.
EarthLite products are the top of the line. Wanting quality, purchasing their fleece Massage table warmer was an easy choice. Delighted once again.

Singer Whitney Houston died of cocain overdose
Posted by African Press International on March 25, 2012

Sad affair. Now it has been confirmed that singer Houston died of cocain overdose.
The coroner has said that she may have had heart attack after taking cocain, thus causing her to drown in the bath.
This mirrors bad image on popular musicians.

I've noticed that the OSX version of Makerware cuts out a big section of the inner pieces when slicing. However, when I slice it in Makerware on Windows it works. So if you have a Mac, install Windows 7 (Because Windows 8 is horrible) and install Makerware on there. Although I have also noticed Makerware runs faster on OSX than on Windows even when it is on the same machine. Hopefully Makerbot updates Makerware soon to fix some of these issues.
Came across this a few days ago and wanted to print it. 7 hours into a full scale print I caught an error on the slicing. Basically no matter what I do with it (netfabb and meshmixer can't fix it), whenever I sliced the file, it decides on the inner two squares that there is nothing there and tries to add supports to it. I can't figure out why. Anyone else have this problem?
If anyone prints this well please let me know what settings you used I would love to print one but can't do it without support and am wondering if it will actually spin well after cleaning up none soluble supports.

I still have to play with gap in hinge-joints in order to ease rotation.. thinking about building a larger model with ball bearings..
I see Solidworks mentioned. Why not upload the Solidworks files? Use "Pack and go" to get all files in the assembly.
By the way.. on the photo is a model printed with 1.6 scale
=-O ooouuupss.. I've uploaded wrong file. Now it's in STL as supposed to be.
I opened it in SolidWorks, and a warning came up that it was from "educational version. This file is intended for instructional use only". And, of course, it's mssing all the parts needed to build the assembly (.sldasm). You can't convert to .stl without the parts.
My first guess would be to leave it alone.

Friday, June 13 12:53:39
Walt Disney Co said it expects global retail sales from its 10-month-old Infinity video game to reach $1 billion.
The forecast comes as rivals also combine physical toys with video games, according to Jimmy Pitaro, president of the company's interactive unit.
Disney launched Infinity last August to help turn around its interactive gaming unit, which lost $1.4 billion from fiscal year 2008 to 2013. In an overhaul in March, the division laid off about one-quarter of the workforce, cut the number of games it develops and focused its advertising more on the fast-changing mobile market.
A month ago, Disney reported global retail sales of $550 million for Infinity. Sales of the game helped the interactive unit post a $14 million profit for the quarter that ended in March, its third consecutive quarterly profit.
"We will be a billion-dollar franchise," Pitaro said of Infinity in an interview this week at the E3 video game conference.
A Disney spokeswoman said the company expects Infinity's global retail sales to cross that threshold with the upcoming launch of the game's next version, "Disney Infinity 2.0: Marvel Super Heroes".
She added that Pitaro's projection was "just the beginning of what we expect it to do. This is a long-term game franchise."
Infinity lets users play with characters from Disney and Pixar films such as Anna and Elsa from "Frozen", Captain Jack Sparrow from "Pirates of the Caribbean" and Lightning McQueen from "Cars".
The 2.0 version that will be launched in the autumn brings in Marvel heroes, including Captain America, Iron Man and Spider-Man.
Infinity competes with Activision Blizzard Inc's "Skylanders" franchise that first successfully introduced the concept of toys coming to life on screen when placed on an electronic base.
Since its launch in October 2011 until the end of 2013, "Skylanders" has surpassed $2 billion in revenue.
Disney also plans more mobile "Star Wars" games before its scheduled December 2015 release of the seventh movie in the classic sci-fi series, Pitaro said. Disney also has a multi-year licensing deal with Electronic Arts Inc to develop a different line of "Star Wars" games. (Reuters)

San Bruno Home Prices & Values
Zillow Home Value Index
The Zillow Home Value Index is the median Zestimate valuation for a given geographic area on a given day. Learn more
- 6.8% 1-year change
- 2.0% 1-year forecast
Market Temperature
Based on three metrics—sale-to-list price ratio, the prevalence of price cuts on home listings, and time-on-market—the market temperature provides information on the current balance of bargaining power between buyers and sellers in this city relative to other cities in the same metropolitan area. A particular city may be identified as a good market for buyers in a metro market favorable to sellers overall. Learn more
The median home value in San Bruno is $728,800. San Bruno home values have gone up 6.8% over the past year and Zillow predicts they will rise 2.0% within the next year. The median list price per square foot in San Bruno is $522, which is higher than the San Francisco Metro average of $409. The median price of homes currently listed in San Bruno is $595,000 while the median price of homes that sold is $669,800. The median rent price in San Bruno is $2,955, which is higher than the San Francisco Metro median of $2,750.
Foreclosures will be a factor impacting home values in the next several years. In San Bruno 1.7 homes are foreclosed (per 10,000). This is greater than the San Francisco Metro value of 1.5 and also lower than the national value of 4.5
Mortgage delinquency is the first step in the foreclosure process. This is when a homeowner fails to make a mortgage payment. The percent of delinquent mortgages in San Bruno is 5.1%, which is lower than the national value of 6.9%. With U.S. home values having fallen by more than 20% nationally from their peak in 2007 until their trough in late 2011, many homeowners are now underwater on their mortgages, meaning they owe more than their home is worth. The percent of San Bruno homeowners underwater on their mortgage is 6.7%, which is lower than San Francisco Metro at 8.2%.Read more

Medicaid Use May Boost ER Visits, Study in Oregon Suggests
THURSDAY, Jan. 2, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- New research reveals that Oregon residents covered by Medicaid -- the publicly funded health insurance program for the poor -- are 40 percent more likely to use emergency rooms than people with no insurance.
This finding suggests that expansion of Medicaid, which some states are allowing under the Affordable Care Act, could lead to more use of emergency departments instead of less, researchers said.
"Although one always needs to be careful generalizing to other settings, these results suggest that other Medicaid expansions are unlikely to decrease emergency room use," Amy Finkelstein, a professor of economics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a principal investigator of the study, said in a university news release.
"When you cover the uninsured, emergency room use goes up by a large magnitude," Finkelstein noted. "In no case were we able to find any subpopulations, or type of conditions, for which Medicaid caused a significant decrease in emergency department use."
The study, published Jan. 2 in the journal Science, revealed that people with Medicaid used the emergency room more for a variety of reasons, even for conditions that might be more easily treated in a doctor's office.
For the study, the researchers tracked emergency department records of 25,000 Oregon residents over 18 months. Oregon expanded Medicaid in 2008 with the help of a lottery system that allowed 10,000 of 90,000 applicants to get coverage.

Phillips Aquatic Foundation Looks to Make Splash with New Rock Wall
Submitted: 12/29/2012
- Winters in the Northwoods can make staying active a difficult task.
A community pool in Phillips might have you covered for fitness away from freezing temperatures.
In this small town of 1400, holds a hidden gem for Northern Wisconsin.
A gem that one organization is using to help draw in more people and hopes it will help by-pass economic turbulence amid ramped fiscal cliff talk.
"We just feel like we needed a new feature to draw people into the pool and looking at something new and unique. And to the best of our knowledge there
isn't anything like this probably north of Milwaukee." Said Phillips Pool Coordinator, Karen Smart.
Kim Mess, who is a founding member of the Philips Area Aquatic Foundation, knows unique additions to the facility, like this rock wall, help ensure its survival in the future.
"It's worked, we've been able to keep this pool, and our likely hood to keep the pool is pretty high. It's amazing what a small town can do when a handful of people are passionate about their community."
Aquatic Director, Annie Knudson, devotes her time to helping people stay fit year around, and couldn't be happier for the foundation's success.
"Our pool wouldn't survive the way it does, so as people talk about budget cuts for education...An organization like this takes it up a notch and makes sure that this facility is available to the community ages into the future."
With 50,000 dollars to the foundation's name, this facility doesn't appear to be going off the deep-end anytime soon.
There's something you can do every day at the Phillips Community Pool-- for more information and specific hours visit phillipscommunitypool.com

December 2006 Student of the Month
Our Student of the Month for December is Laurie, who works in Technical Services/Acquisitions.
Laurie is a senior from West Bend who will graduate in December with a degree in Finance. After graduation she hopes to remain in the area, and is in the process of interviewing. In whatever spare time she can manage between work, classes, and studying, Laurie likes to hang out with friends and watch movies.
Laurie has worked in the library for about a year and a half. The person who nominated her for Student of the Month writes, "She has the ability to work in stressful situations (large volumes of orders). Turns out phenomenal amounts of mistake-free work in a short time. She grasps new procedures quickly, then can work independently. Laurie has a strong willingness to work and learn, as evidenced by her volunteering for several focus groups in the library ... For a section that deals primarily with money issues, Laurie is a perfect student employee."
Congratulations, Laurie, and thank you for a job well done. Good luck after graduation!

5 out of 5 stars Tummy Tuck
Full Tummy Tuck with Lipo - Excellent Results! - Madison, WI
Dr. K is very kind and compassionate. He takes his time with you and explains everything in great detail. He hand held me through every step of the process and totally put me at ease. He is an excellent surgeon who takes great pride in his work. Best surgeon ever!! He also did my Breast Reduction last year....excellent job with that procedure as well. I will never go to any other surgeon.
5 out of 5 stars Tummy Tuck
34 Year Old Mom of Two. Who Needed a Tummy Tuck! - Middleton, WI
Dr King is exactly what I'd hope he'd be at our first meeting, He's extremely kind, attentive, and patient. His bedside manner was compassionate, understanding,and gentle. He was confident, knowledgeable and outspoken. He wasn't afraid to let you know what you needed to do as-well, like eating healthy or losing any weight on your own if needed. I did a lot of research and came to the conclusion that Dr. King was the ONLY Doctor I wanted to do business with. I am excited to say my stomach (and just my overall body) has done a complete 360. He exceeded all my exceptions.. I also took his advice when he said to "exercise and eat healthy". I am beyond excited with my results the last 10 months. I look at myself in disbelief that this is really my body. And I want to make Dr. King proud by keeping up with my progress, living a healthier lifestyle and maintaining this brand new body that Dr. King gave me. He's a miracle worker with a cool east coast accent, laid back demeanor oh and it doesn't hurt he's easy on the eyes either. I had a great experience. I thank him every time I look in the mirror.... and so does my husband!
5 out of 5 stars Mommy Makeover
34 Y/O Athlete and Mother of 2 Mommy Makeover! Middleton, WI
Dr. King is so patient, kind, a great listener, has a wonderful sense of humor, and is one of the most eloquent and considerate individuals I've ever met! I am 100% confident that I have chosen the right surgeon and caregiver. He told me he stands behind his work 100%, and "his name is his work", so it will be done right. He views it as an art, and is quite the perfectionist- which I love to hear because I am as well. I am scheduled for July 17, so it is countdown time!
Seven week Post Op with New Pics
I have been really impressed with Dr. King. From our first meeting, I felt confident he would do a great job. He explained things very throughly and was realistic on what can be achieved. His staff was awesome and always made me feel at ease.
5 out of 5 stars
Walking With Confidence - Middleton, WI
Dr. King is awesome!! He's very personable, caring, informative and funny!! He goes out of his way to make sure you are ok and have everything you need to heal successfully!! He takes a lot of time with you and makes sure all of your questions are answered and you feel comfortable with everything. I can't say enough good things about Dr. King! He's simply an awesome guy!
5 out of 5 stars Tummy Tuck
Time for all my hard work to show!
Just met Dr. King today and I have to say.... I love him! I must also say I never do reviews. But I always read them. I am a review stalker I guess. Dr. King so far is the best doc I think I ever had for anything! *update may 31st. I was right. I Love him! Best doc ever. I do not have one bad thing to say about Dr King. Not one!
5 out of 5 stars
Finally Took the Leap & So Happy I Did - Madison, WI
Chose Dr. King thru insurance. So happy he was on my insurance because he is amazing! Found Dr. King thru my ins and it was fate. He is AMAZING! Put me at ease from the beginning! Would do it all again in a heart beat. Wish I would have found Dr. King years ago:)

Dr King is one of the nicest doctors that I have even met. After my first meeting with him, I could tell that he was very caring and took all my concerns very seriously. I didnt feel rushed and he answered all of my questions - very professional - a true gentleman! He is an excellent surgeon. My surgery scar is actually beautiful - see below. Thank you Dr. King for making me look and feel sexy again! My husband thanks you too! ;- )

Xu Zhen founded MadeIn after deciding he had taken his individual identity as far as it could profitably go. Posing as a kind of advertising agency, the Shanghai-based group aims to upset the assumptions of the art establishment in ways both theatrical and humorous.
In the baroque extravaganza of Immortals' Trails in Secret Land (2012), random selections from Chinese and European mythology ran rampant on a crazy quilt of stuffed snakes and exotic birds. The point of the collage is no-point; snipped from their original contexts, its component images become mere decoration. At their centre is an empty frame within a frame whose meaning too is up to the viewer: a mirror, Xu Zhen suggests, or maybe a window—or the entrance of a tunnel to nowhere.
Calm (2009) was originally part of an exhibition of works by "anonymous Middle Eastern artists"; in fact they were all produced by MadeIn, with the goal of exposing the filters of prejudice through which one culture views another. A pile of rubble conforms perfectly with the region's acquired image as a place of violence and destruction. But this rubble moves, gently undulating as if alive—a reminder that people can be buried by stereotypes as well as bombs.
Under Heaven 20121018 (2012) is a lavishly overdecorated cake-canvas, smothered with thick blobs of paint squeezed directly from an icing bag. The technique arose from playful experiment, but the swirling pattern suggests cityscapes and landscapes seen from the perspective of the gods.
Spread B-041 (2010), part of the same series as Immortals' Trails, is a fifteen-square-metre collage of cloth, thread and other materials that deconstructs and reassembles imagery from magazines, newspapers, cartoons and comics. Xu Zhen says the Spread series "uses media as a medium … to create media."

Bargain of the Week Kylie Grey platform heels
Bargain time, yipee! After watching Ireland AM this morning I went straight to Dresses.ie to take a peek at their shoes.
One of the models was wearing a pair of silver pumps but unfortunately they were not available on their site.
They have absolutely fantastic value on shoes at the moment. I spotted these grey faux suede heels and thought they made a nice change from your standard black and featuring a nice chunky heel and almond toe.
Available from Dresses.ie for only €15….bargaintastic! They only have limited sizes left so if you fancy them check them out. International shipping is also provided
