On a recent Wednesday evening, all the red plush seats in the large, two-tiered auditorium at NYU's Skirball Center were filled, as they usually are for the monthly assembly of the New York Tech Meetup, the largest organization of Internet professionals in the city. But the twittering audience members were about to hear some bad news they probably already knew: New York is No. 2.
Scott Heiferman, the sandy-haired founder known to smash iPads on stage for dramatic effect, flipped through slides ranking cities around the world by their tech meetup ecosystems. Chicago was No. 5; Washington, D.C. was No. 4, and London was No. 3. He reached a screen labeled TOP TWO TECH TOWNS, and he stopped. "So the Bay Area and New York," he said mischievously, as the techies giggled and agitated in their seats. "Let's get into this right now. Leeeeet's take a look at this."
The next slide showed two lines, red and blue, zig-zagging in tandem—but Silicon Valley was consistently a cut above. "Isn't it crazy that we have been neck and neck with the Bay Area for month after month after month?" Mr. Heiferman asked the audience. "I think that has to change. And I think we need to let a little aggression out. Does anyone have an iPad?"
Nobody did—or rather, nobody offered to hand one over. But it wouldn't be a stretch to imagine Mr. Heiferman sledgehammering a tablet from the Cupertino-based company to make his point.
The rivalry between the coastal tech hubs is not entirely friendly. "The NYC tech scene is exploding," investor and entrepreneur Chris Dixon wrote in February 2010, an early instance of the now-common trope of pairing the words "New York City tech" with the word "exploding" (alternatively, "blowing up"; also "killing it," "crushing it"). "Am I the only person in NYC rolling their eyes at this continual barrage of 'IN NYC IT RAINS MANNA FROM THE SKY!'?" one commenter wrote. Fans of the East or West Coast volleyed in the comments. New York was accused of being frivolous, blustery, and "startup suicide." California was called out for being a monoculture.
Over the last few years, the rhetoric in Silicon Alley has started to sound like a Bring It On sequel. The rhetoric is dominated by two themes: boostery New York exceptionalism—in September 2009, the high-profile investor Fred Wilson gave a talk called "NYC's Startup Scene: What makes it special?"—and the David and Goliath narrative, with Silicon Valley as the reigning champion versus New York as the cool, scrappy young challenger.
Even City Hall is on the squad. "My ultimate goal is reclaiming our title as the world capital of technological innovation," Mayor Michael Bloomberg said back in July. When a columnist for the San Jose Mercury News called to say he was "planning a column on the budding rivalry between our two regions," the receptionist answered: "What rivalry? We're winning!"
Rachel Sterne, whose appointment as the city's first "chief digital officer" last year immediately started trending on Twitter within New York, is probably New York's head tech cheerleader, trumpeting startup minutiae to her 29,490 followers.
Given that the three-year-old debate really hasn't changed much, some feel it's time to stop the pep rally and get to the game.
"The West Coast can claim it won round one of whatever ridiculous battle this is all about, but it really depends on when you start the 'fight,'" said Aaron Price, an entrepreneur in residence at DFJ Gotham Ventures and founder of the New Jersey Tech Meetup. "Do they want talk pharmaceutical or telephony? I didn't think so. It's all pointless and self-serving. Let's just all get back to work and build awesome companies that can have offices employing people all throughout the country and the globe."
In May, the Brooklyn-based tech blogger Courtney Boyd Myers wrote a blog post for The Next Web called "Why New York City's Tech Scene is Thriving." It was very well-received. "Should Rachel Sterne stop talking about how New York City is ready to be the social media and technology center of the world? Absolutely not," she wrote in an email. "That would be like forcing a father to stop telling his daughter she's brilliant, beautiful and capable of saving the world."
But, she acknowledged, "We need to stop comparing ourselves to Silicon Valley. We should be celebrating our differences and figuring out innovative ways to collaborate, not fighting for VC money or attention in the press. It is the World Wide Web after all."
Rachel Sklar, a Canadian lawyer-turned-tech and media consultant and founder of Change the Ratio, got into the tech scene around the time the cheerleading started really ramping up. Since then, she's become adept at baton twirling for New York tech. She's done publicity for several New York startups, formally and informally. Last year, when many New Yorkers traveled to the South by Southwest Interactive tradeshow for the first time, Ms. Sklar managed a Twitter account called @NYxSW. (Sample tweet: "Congrats on an awesome SXSW, folks! Tweet at us and tell us how you crushed it, so we can RT and give you your due. #NYCrushingIt.") Recently, Ms. Sklar roped in dozens of local founders, engineers and investors to lipsync lyrics about New York tech—New York underdogs / We can make it here, make it here—in a music video played at a benefit for HackNY, a nonprofit initiative that pits New York tech against another behemoth, Wall Street. "Every NY Tech Person And Their Dog Made A Cameo In This Music Video," wrote Business Insider blogger Allyson Shontell, who also appeared in the video.
Most of the cheerleading and nyah-nyahs plays out in blog fights, however.
"I feel like the Valley started it," said Ms. Sklar, who said she doesn't "have a dog in this fight" despite her efforts to market New York tech. "I remember reading some long ranty article."
Was it "Face It: NYC Is Not The Best Place For A Startup," authored by former New Yorker Matt Mireles in February 2010?
"It wasn't Matt Mireles," she said. She's had other blog fights with Mr. Mireles. "It was this guy, Antonio something. It was obnoxious."
That blog post was titled, "New York will always be a tech backwater, I don't care what Chris Dixon or Ron Conway or Paul Graham say." It was written in August 2010 by Antonio Garcia-Martinez, the founder of a startup that was later acquired by Twitter, and it ended with a challenge: "I promise to wear one of those ridiculous 'I NY' shirts you buy for $3 from the Nigerians in Times Square for an entire month if the total amount of New York–based startup funding, as reported in Crunchbase, exceeds that of Bay Area-based startups in any financial quarter during the next five years."
He concluded, "So…bring it, New York. 'Cause I say the hippies from California will continue to eat your lox."
Thanks Adrianne! Just a quick note of clarification re: no dog in the fight – obviously I'm a huge fan of New York, and booster thereof – I just meant in context of the us vs. them stuff – I actually really like SF and the West Coast and do what I can to keep Virgin in business. And that Antonio dude's blog post was ridic.
Way to compile the dialogue/shine light on the circus surrounding New York vs. SF tech hubs! I think the "hippies from California" should push for the peace-not-war approach, personally, and NY's cheerleaders should root for both teams. Although, I would like to see "this guy Antonio something" wearing an I Heart NY shirt for an entire month…
Hey Rachel,
I stand by my post. The day I lose the bet and am wearing the shirt you can call it 'ridic'. What's really ridiculous is the passel of cheerleaders in this post egging on the New York tech scene. Happy to talk pharma, and telephony and whatever else (particularly those, in fact). SF and NY 'neck and neck' are they? Self-congratulatory, myopic bullshit.
Incidentally, just having a website doesn't make you a tech company. Spare me mentions of Etsy or Rent The Runway.
Mr. Garcia-Martinez. Your comments here and on your referenced blogpost wreak of bitterness. For the record – I never heard anyone ever say that NY would rival the Bay Area for VC in 5 years. That's as ridiculous as saying the Bay Area built its start-up ecosystem in 5 years. I wouldn't even say 10 years. Anyone who has understanding of business/economic cycles would say you'd have to measure closer to 20 years down the road. As far as your blog – since you closed comments I'd love to you have your email to retort every single one of your points. Many of them – from business environment to quality of life were WAY off – as many of the persons on there pointed out to you. I will say right here though that to compare an entire region/metro area (Bay Area) to your experience in one tiny part of a city (Lower Manhattan) is not even apples/oranges…. not even close. The NYC metro area actually is actually spread across parts of 4 states (NY/NJ/CT/PA). Whatever happens economically in NYC ultimately spills over into the rest of the area. For instance – just to use a "tech" example – the IBM research headquarters (Thomas J. Watson Center) in Westchester County (originally started at Columbia Univ on 116th street) is closer to NYC than San Fran is to San Jose. The old Bell Labs moved from Manhattan across the river to NJ – but likewise is still closer to NYC than San Fran is to San Jose. Get the point? Tech start-ups will be no different… just as you should know happens in the Bay Area itself – where companies move from one locale to the next… Left up to you – a California companies like Intel and GlobalFoundries (or an international one like Tokyo Electron) would have not in recent times moved some of their research to "sleepy" Albany, NY (the upstate capitol) to be near the CNSE. They think they knew what they were doing… just as Google did by paying all that money to buy an old building on the westside of Manhattan. You should also use the same method of analysis for the quality of life you pontificated about. I was just up in mostly rural Dutchess County (can still get there by commuter train) visiting friends – and they live right next to a horse stable, hay farm, and a wooded area where maple syrup is extracted (no chemicals). You can even buy raw milk up there from certain farms. Did I mention they live closer to NYC than San Jose is to Sonoma???
Very little tech in the NY Tech meetup. The NY Tech meetup is for wannabes that think they are techies because they use Twitter. Real techies avoid it.
That is one of the main problems with NYC: there are more people talking about tech than actually doing it. Not much hardcore tech being developed in NY, outside of Wall St that is. So me a big open source project and I will guarantee that top committers are in California.
You spelled Pom Pons incorrectly in the HEADLINE.

Comments about Bulbrite 40 Watt, 130 Volt Satin Thread Spun "Antique" Decorative Bulb:
I bought a 6 candle chandelier; I originally put 65 watt clear candle tip bulbs in it. The 65 watt clear bulbs were way to BRIGHT and hard on the eyes. My friend told me about the satin spun wrap bulbs so I ordered six 40 watt bulbs and they are just about perfect...Much softer on my eyes. I think I could have ordered the 65 watt bulbs satin spun wrap bulb and they would still be easy on my eyes. I am very happy with this product.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Sport Specific Training, No Such Thing!
Sport specific training has become a popular term within the sport training industry. Unfortunately, this term has become nothing but a marketing ploy to sell products and programs. There is no such thing as sport specific training, unless you are practicing the sport you play. All other training is generalized and should be focused on improving work threshold levels and overall athleticism.
For more information please visit the article, The Wheel of Conditioning
The Wheel of Conditioning
The "Wheel" (description below) represents various attributes that the "performance coach" keenly looks to development but ensuring at all times each "spoke" is of equal ability and recognizes how they work together. The target of "equal ability" is to ensure the foundation is granite solid and with skill and tactical knowledge development will play an integral role in building the better player and team.
• Drive, Determination lay at the center of the hub for which all else revolves around and without success will be limited. Once an athlete understands and accepts "adversity is something that you overcome" they will withstand the rigors towards goal achievement.
• Sport Skill / Tactical Knowledge as noted previously this area is the concern of a specialised coach, yet "performance conditioning" expert must be keenly aware of these needs and apply a strategy towards the goal.
• Range of Motion, Static: To be strong and powerful you must be "soft" and capable of "folding" effortlessly in managing sporting needs. Range of motion needs to be stressed in every situation and in recognition of the body's three basic planes of motion:
• Coronal plane: cutting the front and back portions of the body.
• Sagittal plane: cutting the right and the left segments of the body.
• Transverse plane: dividing the top and the bottom parts of the body.
• Range of Motion, Dynamic (see above and to be discussed in private settings).
• Agility is paramount to the success in the sport of Rugby and a by-product of proper training in every "spokes" of the wheel (to be discussed at a later date within strength training) they are specific approaches that are highly influential and equally carryover to skill requirements.
• Linear Speed, like "agility" is of utmost importance in the development of an athlete but by-product of every "spoke" of the wheel as well as very specific drills and regimes.
• Strength is an extremely broad term and for our consideration loosely categorized in sub-headings of relative strength, absolute strength, starting strength, explosive strength, strength endurance and speed strength. Each of these is of importance to the developing player, dependent upon level of maturation within an overall goal of "strength training" to reduce the risk of injury and improve sports specific power and speed.
• Work Threshold / General Physical Preparation ("GPP") is at the core of Renegade Training™ which will in fact serve as the foundation that all other work to be built upon. All training is a product of having sufficient levels of fitness and improved levels of overall athleticism such that proper postural alignment is maintained and the vast specialized skills needed to excel can be built. Unlike typical "Cardio" training, GPP implements simple patterns of calisthenics based exercise aimed to decrease body fat levels, skyrocket conditioning and provide a simple & effective way to lose weight.

Bentonville, AR, U.S.-based retailer Wal-Mart said store sales rose 2.3 percent in September, near the low end of expectations, according to preliminary projections.
The retailer had forecast a same-store sales increase of 2 to 4 percent for the 5 weeks ended Friday, Oct. 1.
Wal-Mart said the sales were an estimate and subject to change due to accounting reconciliations conducted after period end.
Among the retailer's strongest categories were electronics, with televisions, DVDs, and DVD players continuing as strong sales items.
Wal-Mart said that cool weather in 2003 made comparisons difficult and that the U.S. South and West were the strongest regions for the week.(Reuters)

German group of artists active in Munich from 1911 to 1914. The principal members were Vasily Kandinsky, Franz Marc, Gabriele Münter (see Still-life with Vases, No. 2, 1914), Alfred Kubin, Paul Klee and August Macke. The group's aim was to express the inner desires of the different artists in a variety of forms, rather than to strive for a unified style or theme. It was the successor to the Neue künstlervereinigung münchen (NKVM), founded in Munich in 1909.

UPDATED: Association postpones controversial plan to use herbicide in Lake Quassapaug
900 people signed petition opposing use of chemicals to control weeds in Middlebury lake
MIDDLEBURY – The Lake Quassapaug Association is holding off on a controversial plan to use an herbicide to combat invasive weeds growth in the lake.
"The board made the decision to postpone the treatments until the consultant can complete another weed survey in June and review the treatment options with the board again," Ingrid Manning, the association president, said in a press release. "The board also sees the need to expand its educational efforts this summer and better inform the public on the issues facing the lake."

The town owns the lake I speak of and has obtained the appropriate state permits to treat the weeds as well as pays for the treatment with the help of the lake association. The treatment is done by a licensed professional company, which if memory serves may be the same one mentioned in the article...and they may even have used the same consultant to do the survey and recommend areas to be treated. For a few years when the town stopped treatment, the eurasian milfoil choked the coves and shallow portions of the lake essentially destroying the fish breeding grounds. Consequently fish populations dropped dramatically and many cottage owners were unable to swim or boat on their waterfront because the weeds were so thick. "

How Philbin aka Mr. Mackey reacts when other coaches make in game adjustments:
I would welcome him to the team but I just can't see Sparano wanting a player like that on this team.
I am sticking to this more bad then it is good.
Keep him the hell out of Miami...
A desperate Singletary would likely put in a claim regardless, but especially now if it's gonna preempt Pete Carroll.
"Yep. Blow it up. This might the worst team I've ever seen constructed in my life.
And then you throw in the terrible preparation and in-game coaching. There is no defense.
But do it right. Fire everyone in the building. No survivors. , JiF Jetnation
I have to wonder how we would handle Moss if he acts up.. we couldn't even handle Porter. We kept freaking Cameron Wake on the bench just so we wouldn't upset Porter.
Marshall, Moss, Bess. Is that legal??

At a Glance
To prepare for ICD-10 implementation, Seattle-based UW Medicine:
Careful strategic planning has helped leaders at University of Washington (UW) Medicine in Seattle respond to rapid changes in the healthcare environment. Yet UW Medicine, like many health systems, may be facing one of its most daunting challenges to date with the new coding changes that are part of ICD-10. The transition to ICD-10, which goes into effect Oct. 1, 2014, will have an impact on all aspects of the revenue cycle, as well as documentation, IT, and patient care.
The sheer size and scope of the system's ICD-10 adoption plan is daunting: UW Medicine must mobilize thousands of physicians and residents spanning nine entities to adapt to a new, more exacting way of documenting care—without taking too much time from their extensive clinical, teaching, research, and administrative schedules and priorities.
In 2011, UW Medicine had the forethought to bring a dedicated ICD-10 program director on board and form a fully engaged support team. The charge of the program director has been to develop a master ICD-10 plan encompassing more than 300 separate projects, such as more than 100 IT system upgrades, electronic health record (EHR) configurations, and revisions to clinical documentation. The master plan is designed to support the strategic objectives of the organization, including the primary focus: full integration.
Leaders at UW Medicine view the ICD-10 initiative as a defining catalyst to reduce redundancy, improve communications, tighten documentation, and achieve operational efficiencies across many departments and entities. In essence, the system is using ICD-10 as an opportunity to further clinical integration and transform care across all service lines and clinical functions.
In mid-2011, a team composed of the CFO, CIO, vice presidents, and executive and medical directors from each entity embarked on an impact assessment to ascertain the scope of the ICD-10 effort. Key objectives of the assessment were to:
The team was able to achieve these objectives by reviewing workflows, financial reporting, staffing volumes, organization structures, policies and procedures, and quality metrics. Leadership and subject matter experts were interviewed to discuss concerns and competing priorities.
When completed, the assessment disclosed some jaw-dropping findings, the most astounding of which was that the transition would require a considerable, multimillion-dollar budget and "affect everything and everyone—except for parking and security," as one hospital leader noted.
After completing the impact assessment, the ICD-10 Program team developed a feasibility study to flesh out how the different projects under the ICD-10 plan could be accomplished in time for the national transition date.
Through the feasibility study, the team also identified other benefits from the move to ICD-10 that would help support the urgency and value of the project. These additional benefits included the following.
Quality and safety. The new language requires that every report, clinical trigger, patient safety goal, dashboard, and myriad mandates that currently use ICD-9 be reviewed and revised. Such a review is bound to promote improvements in the quality and safety of patient care.
Business intelligence. Understanding the relationship between ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes and managing the transition effectively will ensure that hospital leaders can utilize their data in the months following the ICD-10 transition. It is not possible to simply "replace" codes; decisions must be made based on which codes are used and how they are used. If reports using ICD-9 codes are not rewritten, the data will be lost after the transition.
Clinical and operational alignment. Documenting with greater specificity may facilitate more consistent patient care and operational practices across all UW Medicine entities, thereby promoting greater organizational strength, clinical excellence, and patient safety along the continuum of care.
Payment. Collaborating with payers early and often both strengthens relationships and provides better information to effectively mitigate known risks. Common testing definitions of clinical scenarios and risk areas also will support more accurate claims, leading to fewer denials and faster response time when issues arise.
UW Medicine's executives understood that a program of this scale—one with many moving parts that affects employees at all levels—would need strong leadership as well as clearly defined roles and responsibilities. Specifically, the ICD-10 program would require:
To that end, hospital leaders established a clear organizational structure for its ICD-10 program, led by a program director who reports to the program's sponsors in UW Medicine's executive suite. Reporting to the program director are senior project managers representing six major areas of impact:
Across each of these areas, additional project managers also must address cross-functional areas of impact:
Overall, about 25 people on the ICD-10 team report to the program director. Leaders designed this structure to minimize oversight redundancy and ensure appropriate leadership from each UW Medicine entity.
The program's central governing body is the ICD-10 executive steering committee. This committee is co-chaired by the executive sponsors for the program, Lori Mitchell, CFO, UW Medicine and vice president for medical affairs, University of Washington, and James Fine, MD, professor and chairman, laboratory medicine and CIO, IT services, UW Medicine.
The executive steering committee is charged with keeping the ICD-10 program focused and on schedule. Its goals are to ensure adequate resources for the project, remove barriers to implementation, and facilitate communication throughout the organization.
Mitchell and Fine were natural choices for leading the ICD-10 effort because they had successfully led a 2010 billing system conversion, which followed a similar implementation strategy.
"Jim and I are engaged in this process on a daily basis," says Mitchell. To address major issues or decisions, Mitchell and Fine have established a formal remediation process. "We ask any groups or individuals voicing concerns to put those issues into a formal white paper,'" Mitchell says. "We review that report, get the facts, and meet with them to resolve any brewing problems and find a resolution."
When conducting the feasibility study, the ICD-10 team looked at strategic initiatives across the organization, including implementations of computerized provider order entry (CPOE) and a new ambulatory EHR, efforts to achieve meaningful use, and integration efforts across the system.
It became apparent to the ICD-10 team that many of these projects had overlapping impacts and were competing for resources. Why not take advantage of that overlap and find common points for collaboration?
For example, hospital leaders found that the ambulatory EHR team was focused, of course, on EHR implementation. Yet when the ICD-10 team met with the EHR team, the groups uncovered ways to coordinate their efforts in design sessions and training of end users.
Implementation of CPOE in ambulatory oncology clinics was another area in which collaboration was possible. As part of this process, the CPOE team is preparing to update and standardize order sets. Similarly, ICD-10 will require a review of the order sets to ensure the sets support the coding language. As a result, leaders at UW Medicine have created a complementary, concurrent timeline for the CPOE and ICD-10 order set reviews. Overall, our CPOE and ICD-10 teams will be able to utilize fewer resources, reduce clinical disruption, and roll out the new changes to physicians only once.
In looking at the range of projects and workflows across UW Medicine, the ICD-10 team saw more and more opportunities to interlink projects at defined points. Usually, organizations try to avoid "scope creep," but in UW Medicine's situation, the goal was to bridge projects that had similar impacts.
Because ICD-10 touches everyone, it also is an impetus for driving integrative work. UW Medicine's ICD-10 program has strengthened what can be a tenuous relationship between coders and clinical documentation improvement (CDI) professionals. Across the medical centers, these groups have created a common understanding of what "coding" includes, standardized education and auditing requirements, and defined staffing ratios. Now, they make decisions and collaborate as a team.
Another challenge for UW Medicine is creating ICD-10 training that can connect with faculty and affiliated physicians, as well as medical students, residents, and fellows in training.
"We need to give our physicians and other staff as many tools as possible to make it easier for them to learn and adapt to ICD-10," Mitchell says. "There is not going to be an 'opt out' for this program, so we need to make this as easy as possible."
The ICD-10 program developed a three-pronged strategy to gain physician buy-in. The plan is to drive physician compliance from a quality and patient care focus, and include all physicians, department heads, and medical directors in coordinated ICD-10 messaging.
Moreover, as with the other projects, the use of existing resources provides a means to reduce the burden on physicians. For example, during a meeting in 2011 with the practice plan billing and compliance team and its compliance officer, the ICD-10 program director learned that an established compliance and billing training program existed in UW Medicine's learning management system (LMS), with nearly 50 online modules covering specialty-specific areas. The program director decided to use this infrastructure for ICD-10 training because physicians were already familiar with the LMS and, thus, would be more receptive to it.
The LMS allows employees to take classes at their own pace. Mitchell also observes that the system "will help us keep track of who has completed training and help us know if we are meeting our training goals."
Leaders at UW Medicine also recognized that physicians tend to learn best from other physicians, in a peer-to-peer manner. In the future, ICD-10 specialty and subspecialty content will be delivered to physicians, by physicians.
The next challenge will be to integrate training on facility and professional billing, including the outpatient and inpatient components of physician billing. One objective of this training, for example, is to help physicians to understand that ICD-10 and the call for greater specificity in documentation benefit them just as much as the facility.
Broadly, physician education will focus on two important themes: First, "If you don't document it, it didn't happen." Second, accurate documentation has an important impact on the continuum of care for patients to ensure all providers involved in complex care have ready access to consistent information, as well as the physician's own profile and billing.
According to the needs of an academic medical center, leaders at UW Medicine plan to provide an integrated approach for medical students, residents, and fellows in training for Current Procedural Terminology and evaluation and management coding processes as well as ICD-10. To be successful clinicians, these individuals will need to capture severity of illness and document clinical conditions and procedures. The program also is intended to help practicing physicians enhance the accuracy of professional billing and ICD-10 compliance to maintain the viability of their practice in the coming years.
These initiatives are complementary—rather than competitive—aspects of the current regulatory and payment system. Physicians also may see that this push for more detailed documentation could lead to enhanced data for clinical research, epidemiologic analysis, and healthcare policymaking.
The road to implementing ICD-10 is long and challenging, but UW Medicine will be stronger and more united once it's all said and done. (A timeline of the initiative, with major milestones.)
Along the way, UW Medicine has identified best practices that help ease the transition.
Communicate early and often. The ICD-10 team presented at existing governance forums and held ICD-10 departmental workshops that attracted almost 500 attendees. The team's goal was to present the facts about ICD-10, highlighting the clinical benefits. To further improve communication, leaders at UW Medicine also have built an ICD-10 intranet site. However, some employees may still feel that ICD-10 "is being inflicted on them," so the challenge is to show that ICD-10 offers strategic opportunities—namely, the ability to improve clinical integration.
Partner with your payers early and often. ICD-10 trained coders at UW Medicine are coding charts in ICD-10 and sharing that work with payers to conduct joint evaluation and testing. This step gives both parties time to understand how the language and codes will change within a specific population so they can effectively prepare for the transition.
Embrace responsible scope creep. Traditionally, organizations don't want projects to meld into one another. However, with the cost and time associated with ICD-10 preparation, finding those connection points among projects helps minimize the impact on clinicians and patients.
Choose the right leaders. Select engaged executive leaders as well as a project leader who has the experience to tackle such a large program. Leaders at UW Medicine have chosen two executive sponsors who are known for handling large projects and being thoughtful and collaborative. They also are committed to showing a united front and making the hard decisions.
Partner with physicians. Physician leaders should be fully engaged in the ICD-10 conversion. Education for physicians should be focused by specialty or subspecialty and should be delivered peer-to-peer. It should also embrace existing technologies, as UW Medicine did with its LMS.
Many have just left the starting block on the ICD-10 implementation, and the finish line in 2014 seems far off. But UW Medicine's leaders believe that, with the right planning, training, and commitment, the health system will end up even stronger and better than before. The push to achieve ICD-10 readiness as a team will foster a common understanding of what is going on across the organization at all levels, in all departments, and in all systems, leading to true clinical integration. In that respect, this is truly an opportunity of a lifetime.

Phnom Penh has a vast range of places to eat, from noodle shops and market stalls, where you can fill up for a few thousand riel, to sophisticated Western places where prices for a main course rise to $15–20. In addition many guesthouses have small, if usually undistinguished, restaurants.
On the whole, the food in Phnom Penh is of a reasonable standard, so you're unlikely to go far wrong if you pick somewhere to eat at random. The bustling riverfront and Sisowath Quay are lined with cafés, restaurants and bars serving cuisine from all corners of the world. The attractive location means you need to pick carefully if you're on a budget, with the cheapest single-course meals going for $4–5. Boeng Keng Kang, broadly Street 278 from streets 51 to 63, is packed with swish cafés, refined but reasonably priced restaurants and bars, and the atmosphere is more laidback than the riverfront (where the myriad of vendors and beggars can get a little wearing). For fine-dining on imported meat and wine, there are some noteworthy French restaurants as well as some fancy fusion establishments; even though they're expensive in Cambodian terms they cost a fraction of what you would pay in the West.
A great place to fill up and try a selection of traditional Khmer dishes is at one of the markets; try the Central Market and Psar Kabkoh; the latter is a few blocks southeast of Independence Monument and dozens of sellers cook into the early evening. Most Cambodians come here to buy takeaway meals, but small plastic stools are ubiquitous and should suffice as a dining room. For sop chhnang day, where you cook meat and vegetables in a pot of stock at your table, there are plenty of establishments to try on Monivong and Sihanouk boulevards.
In addition to sit-down meals, stalls and roadside vendors sell simple noodle and rice dishes for roughly 3000 riel to take away, while fresh baguettes and rolls are sold in the markets in the morning and are available all day around the city from hawkers with handcarts.
Cafés and coffee shops
Phnom Penh's busy café society of the 1950s and 1960s vanished during the war years, but there has now been a massive revival, with many attached to galleries, shops or internet centres.

This video segment adapted from Earthkeeping: "Toxic Racism" looks at how pollution from an industrial hog farm impacts people who live near the farm. Learn about waste lagoons and other environmental hazards from animal feeding operations. Hear the story of how one hog farm has affected a community in North Carolina and how residents sued the farm for violations of the Clean Water Act. In addition, learn about how minority communities are unfairly affected by environmental issues.
In the business of industrial farming, animals are often raised in confined quarters. Cows, pigs, chickens, or other animals are restricted to small spaces, and since they do not graze or range, feed is brought to them. These types of farms, also known as animal feeding operations (AFOs), are a way to produce a high output of meat, milk, and eggs at minimal cost.
However, there are a number of potential human health impacts from the operation of AFOs. For example, antibiotics and pesticides are commonly used to keep disease and pests under control in crowded conditions. But widespread use of antibiotics promotes the development of drug-resistant pathogens, which can be hazardous to human health. And pesticides may potentially accumulate in the meat of the raised animals, as well as spread into the environment. There are a variety of potential health effects from exposure to pesticides, such as impacts to the endocrine and nervous systems and increased risk of cancer.
Waste from the animals is kept in cesspools called lagoons. The liquefied manure in lagoons is often applied to crops as fertilizer because manure is rich with nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus. However, because of the large concentration of animals, there is often more waste than can be used as fertilizer, and the farmer is forced to continue to store the excess. Although lagoons should be constructed with an impermeable liner to prevent the waste from polluting the environment, leaks and flooding can be a problem. Some farms, which have been designated as Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs), are subject to regulation by the Environmental Protection Agency, but most AFOs are unregulated.
People who live near AFOs may have to deal with unpleasant odors as well as more serious health issues caused by gases and particulate matter. Lagoons and spray fields emit pollutants such as ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, methane, dust, and organic compounds. Residents near AFOs may suffer from a number of symptoms including headaches, eye and throat irritation, respiratory problems (such as bronchitis and asthma), nausea, depression, and fatigue.
Runoff from fields fertilized with manure and leakages from lagoons can pollute streams, rivers, and lakes and contaminate drinking water. Improper application of the fertilizer (such as spraying on saturated land, spraying in windy conditions, and overapplying) can exacerbate health risks.
Manure contains disease pathogens and may also contain antibiotics and pesticides that were used on the animals. People may become sick from direct contact with water contaminated by manure. In addition, high levels of nitrates from the wastes that get into drinking water can lead to methemoglobinemia, a blood disorder that can be fatal (especially for babies).
Studies have shown that AFOs have a disproportionate health impact on poor, nonwhite communities. For example, North Carolina is one of the leading hog-farming states in the United States and home to about 10 million hogs. The industry is located primarily in the southeastern region of the state, where coastal areas are prone to flooding. Statistical studies have shown that African Americans were more likely than whites to live in areas with flooded AFOs. In addition, these areas have high rates of poverty and often depend on wells for drinking water, which makes this population even more vulnerable to the health hazards from AFO pollution.

Finding A Local Appraiser
Our Location
Our offices are located in Texas near Austin and Houston and we do not maintain a retail location. We do need to see the jewelry in person, or have it shipped to us.
Your Local Choice
We apologize for any inconvenience but we are unable to make recommendations for appraisers in your area.
Phone Books
If you ultimately are more comfortable finding an appraiser in your area, the best solution is to search your local phone books and seek those listed under, "Appraiser" who specialize in jewelry, or under "Jewelers" or "Jewelry" often under the subheading of appraiser.
Online Resources
American Society of Appraisers
International Society of Appraiser
Their Qualifications
Ideally, you should look for a certified appraiser. Those in smaller towns may need to look in the nearest larger metropolitan area. Don't be afraid to ask about an appraiser's experience with antique jewelry. Some know a great deal, many others only specialize in modern jewelry and know very little.

Everyone has their dream winter project. Some people hunker down and build their race cars, some take their show car off the road to do some crazy fab work it come out strong in spring. For us this winter the cars have taken the back burner so we could focus our motivation on this:
The infamous garage. No build is complete or even STARTED without a good work space. It makes or breaks the project. Can't shave a bay without a good place to let everything set, can't build a motor without a good bench to line up all your freshly powder coated parts, can't even have a future barn find without the barn!
We have started working hard to get it to be a place that we won't mind being in when the sub zero temps hit us hard, or spending late nights in getting one of our monsters running just right before a track day, and hopefully by spring this shed will be much more then just dim cold storage, it will be somewhere that memories will be made and dreams will come true.
And even before that… The projects begin. Enter the Alfa Romeo 164 L.
A long running project of our own Stuart Todd this massive Italian will hopefully be the first of many exotic projects to roll out of our (insert-name-here) Garage and like Jeremy Clarkson said "You can't be a true petrol head until you've owned an Alfa."

Stock Car Racing
#2 Brad Keselowski
|#2 Fusion
|Miller Lite
|Crew Chief
|Paul Wolfe
|Rochester Hills, Mich.
The champ comes to Ford Racing. Brad Keselowski, who won 2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship in only his third full season, begins his first year with Ford and fourth at Penske Racing.
The 2012 season saw Keselowski produce career best results on the way to his first NASCAR Sprint Cup Series title and the first for car owner Roger Penske. The championship was the second for Keselowski under the Penske banner after he claimed the NASCAR Nationwide Series crown in 2010.
Keselowski recorded a career-high five NSCS victories in 2012, including regular season wins at Bristol, Talladega and Kentucky, and two victories during the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup at Chicago and Dover in the famed "Blue Deuce". Keselowski also set career bests with 13 top-five and 23 top-10 finishes as well as 735 laps led. In addition to his Cup championship, Keselowski earned three NNS wins to give him a total of 14 over the last two seasons.
* Keselowski was raised in an environment where spending time at the race shop and the track was just a way of life. His father, Bob, was a 1997 race winner in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS). His uncle, Ron, competed at the NSCS level in the early 1970s.
* Keselowski drove the truck operated by his family's team for eight NCWTS races in 2004. The following season, he ran the full truck schedule and had a best finish of seventh, which he recorded in February at Daytona International Speedway.
* A native of Rochester Hills, Mich., Keselowski now resides in Charlotte, N.C.
Brad Keselowski is one of only two drivers in NASCAR history to win the NASCAR Nationwide and NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championships. The other is Bobby Labonte, who won the then-NASCAR Busch Series title in 1991 before claiming the then-NASCAR Winston Cup championship in 2000.

Some herbal supplements, including products labeled as natural, have drug-like effects that can be dangerous. So it's important to do your homework and investigate potential benefits and side effects of herbal supplements before you buy. And be sure to talk with your doctor, especially if you take medications, have chronic health problems, or are pregnant or breast-feeding.

Targeted or not targeted?
May 30th, 2007 by SecuriTeam, Filed under: Commentary, Corporate Security, Culture, Insider Threat, Microsoft, Phishing, Spam, Virus, Web
many of us have been having discussions and arguments over if the recent bbb phishing attacks are targeted or not.
thinking on this, i believe the better equivalent which may solve our terminology disagreements on if these bbb phishing emails were targeted or not would be "targeted spam" as a tried concept. we can assume, although in some cases incorrectly, that spam is bulk.
usually, spam goes to "lists" of addresses, harvested. sometimes it is targeted to a certain audience. but there are other types of lists, not just of addresses and interests.
it is possible to buy lists of addresses of people who attended rsa and visited booths, for example. or any other number of trade-shows. it is possible to harvest linkedin, etc.
my take is that this attack is targeted in the sense that it goes to certain individual types only, but is quite mundane and bulk in the type.
we need terms for individual/close-to attacks and attacks by targeting an audience, still in bulk.

On Saturday, November 9, 2013 the Club welcomes the public into its clubhouse and beautiful grounds in Loch Haven Park for the major fundraiser of the year. OGC member Circles and select vendors will raise money for the Orlando Garden Club and individual circle projects by selling handmade crafts and plants. Educational materials are also featured to better acquaint the public with the goals of the Orlando Garden Club, plant care, conservation issues, and other relevant topics.
Donations, Scholarships and Community Service
The Orlando Garden Club and its member circles contribute funds and useful items to a variety of charitable and educational organizations and causes including, but not limited to: University of Florida, Wekiva Youth Camp, Audubon Society, Nature Conservancy, House of Hope, Ronald McDonald House, Russell Home, St. Vincent de Paul, Primrose School, Lakeside Alternatives, and the Mustard Seed.
Garden Therapy and Junior Gardening
Volunteers from the Orlando Garden Club work with patients at residential facilities and as advisors to public school programs to engage in activities involving planting, conservation, flower arranging and crafts. Through this interaction the club hopes to promote healing and learning, as well as encouraging others to be
involved with nature and gardening.
High School Gardening and SEEK
Many OGC Circles sponsor high school students in projects relating to horticulture, flower arranging and ecology, and send students to summer study programs through the Florida Federation of Garden Clubs' SEEK project (Save the Earth's Environment through Knowledge).
Wekiva Youth Camp
By granting scholarships and encouraging sponsorships, Circles of the OGC help send local children to the beautiful Camp Wekiva for summer fun and environmental education activities. The camp, owned by the Florida Federation of Garden Clubs, is located in Wekiva State Park. Some OGC members serve as volunteer counselors and instructors to work with the 3rd to 8th grade students during the summer.
Grounds and Patio
This year Barbara Royalty will be chairing the patio maintenance at the clubhouse. Each Circle will provide helpers during assigned months. Don't miss an opportunity to have fun with your Circle members.
Families, Parks and Recreation Department
OGC Liaison, Claire Viverito, coordinates public events with the other entities in Loch Haven Park at the FPRD meetings.
The Membership Committee seeks to increase the
number of new members by providing informational pamphlets about the Orlando Garden Club which are always available in the Clubhouse to renters and prospective new members. Information tables are set up at flower shows and fund-raisers to inform the public of the Club's goals and encourage new members to join the Club.

Somerset have announced that Pakistan left-arm spinner Abdur Rehman will be returning to the county for the latter half of the 2013 season.
Rehman enjoyed a hugely successful spell with Somerset this year when he claimed 27 wickets at just 14.19 in four LV= County Championship matches, including innings figures of nine for 65 against Worcestershire.
Rehman, 32, is currently serving a 12-week ban handed out by the England and Wales Cricket Board in October after testing positive for cannabis following Somerset's championship game with Nottinghamshire on August 8.
Rehman, who has played 17 Tests and 25 one-day internationals for Pakistan, said: "I am happy to be coming back to England to play for Somerset, I really enjoyed my time there last year and will look to play with the same intensity and passion.
"I would also like to thank the Somerset management and fans for their support in what has been a difficult period for me."
On the subject of Rehman's ban, Somerset chief executive Guy Lavender said: "The club in no way condones the use of illegal drugs. It was heartening to see that he admitted his mistake and has been punished accordingly.
"It is now time to move on and I am very confident he will do extremely well for us next season."
Confirmation of Rehman's return follows last month's capture of South Africa's Test opener Alviro Petersen as overseas player for the first half of next season.
Somerset chairman of the cricket committee Vic Marks said of Rehman: "At the moment he is contracted to play the final few weeks of the season which will include five championship games and one-day cricket as well.
"Subject to his international commitments we will try to extend his contract through into the T20 period to make him available for that as well."

From Green Right Now Reports
Bold Nebraska, a progressive group that's leading the Nebraska fight against the Keystone XL pipeline, has issued a call to supporters to harness the spirit of the season.
The group is urging those who oppose the pipeline to take one or more of these four actions:
1 — Attend a Nov. 4 briefing on the special session of the Nebraska legislature (a unicameral body), which will be reconsidering the pipeline's route through the state's ecologically delicate Sandhills region. Gov. Dave Heineman called the special session on Monday.
2 – Write a letter to President Obama asking him to deny the permit for the pipeline, which would carry tar sands oil from Canada to Texas refineries. And ask the Prez to visit the Sandhills before making his decision. (Fax your letter to 202-456-2461 or write, The White House/ 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW/ Washington, DC 20500.)
3 - Thank the Governor and Legislative Speaker Mike Flood for calling the special session. (Heineman: 402-471-2244, Flood 402-471-2929).
4 – Carve a pumpkin that expresses your concern about the pipeline. This game of squash vs. Big Oil might not frighten anyone in DC, but it will send a Halloween message neighbor to neighbor in the heartland.
Need a stencil? These crafty protesters have got you covered. Click to download the No KXL stencil or the Stand with Randy stencil.
Get inspired by the many protest pumpkins already on guard against environmental pollution by visiting Bold's Flickr page where you can see kids, parents and grandmas carving away.

DVR to Computer
In the last 5 years, DVR has become a very common device in our home theater. We have a lot of choice, like Dish Network, TiVo, Direct TV, etc. Most DVRs have 320GB to 500GB HDD storage, but it still is a problem. We want to backup our favorite TV shows, so we can enjoy them in the future time. But the DVR will not have enough space to store all the HD shows no matter how big the disk is. More and more people start to search and try to find a way to transfer data from DVR to Computer. Actually, there are several ways to transfer data from DVR to computer, or other storages. Here we will give your one common way, in which you can transfer the data from any model of DVRs to your computer.
In this way, what you need is a DVD record, or one computers with capture card. First, you need to connect your S-VIDEO CABLE to the your DVR s-video output port. Then, you should connect another end, red/white/yellow port of your s-video cable to the composite video input of your DVD recorder or computer capture card.
If you use the DVD recorder, you just need to insert a blank DVD inside the DVD recorder. Make sure the unit is on and ready to record. Then you can start to record the program from your DVR until the program completes.
If you use a computer, you need to install some DVD record software. You can search on google about it. There are lots of DVD record software, and they are with very low price, DVD Recorder 1.5 for example. You need to run the software before you start the record. You need to select where you want to save the record data, in your hard disk, or in a DVD, it's up to you. The last step is click "Start record" and record your favorite shows.
Analog out of DVR to a DVD set top recorder, or to a video capture card. This way is easy, but time consuming, because it is done in thr real-time. That means if you have 1 hour show, it will cost 1 hour to record, or backup. So you need to consider it when you decide to do your backup in this way.
