Nice desk for the price.
By ATG Stores Guest from on Apr 23, 2012
I had been looking for a small hard wood desk with both drawers and keyboard tray. This one met my requirement. The desk arrived fast. However there was a defect on the surface and the drop down cover for the keyboard tray wouldn't open. Contacted the customer support and they were very helpful. Received a replacement desk and this one was perfect. I love ATG for their service and products.

FDA regulations are often blamed for the high cost of drug development, but drugmakers' business decisions may be the real culprits, writes Bernard Munos. FDA approval requires two successful Phase III trials, but drugmakers performed dozens of trials in support of blockbusters, whether to broaden the indication or in support of marketing, Munos writes. Moreover, the high failure rate of pre-approval Phase III trials seems to indicate that executives are pushing mediocre drug candidates through the pipeline, he writes.

An intriguing connection between Obamacare and the President's recent executive order on immigration is making the rounds.
The Washington Times Stephen Dinan noted that, "Under the president's new amnesty, businesses will have a $3,000-per-employee incentive to hire illegal immigrants over native-born workers because of a quirk of Obamacare."
Caroline May at Breitbart.com echoed: "Nearly five million illegal immigrants will be eligible for legal status and work permits under President Obama's amnesty. They are not, however, currently eligible for Obamacare."
In the video below, Dennis Michael Lynch explains how the two programs affect his ability to provide health insurance for his employees.
And finally, ACU Chairman Matt Schlapp appeared on The Washington Times' Andy Parks Show today and discussed, among other trending topics, how the link between the two programs affects businesses' abilty to hire and provide benefits to its employees. You can listen HERE.
Let us know what YOU think is going on here. Join the conversation by liking us on Facebook and following@CPACNews on Twitter.
87 Days Until CPAC
"While I am relieved to hear about the release of Alan Gross, President Obama's actions today fail to stand up for true democratic reforms in Cuba. Today President Obama insulted and betrayed the Cuban freedom fighters who fled Cuba with just the shirt on their backs. My father-in-law, now in the winter of a heroic man's life, deserves the peace of mind knowing that America will always stand for human rights and human dignity."
"President Obama apparently learned two things from the recent elections: circumvent Congress and blame Republicans," said Schlapp. "Hagel's firing comes directly after the irresponsible executive order on immigration last week."
President Obama's Executive Order is like a royal decree giving legal status to millions of people who came here and reside here illegally. The president is showing utter contempt for the American voter, the Constitution, the separation of powers and all those who follow the law.
"We are honored to announce that conservative talk radio powerhouse Mark Levin, U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), and ACU Foundation Chairman Carly Fiorina will deliver remarks at CPAC 2015," said ACU Chairman Matt Schlapp. "These three conservative leaders reflect our desire to ensure that CPAC 2015 represents conservative policies that highlight the importance of free markets, national security, and traditional cultural standards."
Over the weekend, American Conservative Union (ACU) Chairman Matt Schlapp and his wife Mercy, who was a spokesperson for President George W. Bush, appeared on FOX News' Huckabee, where they spoke about their family's history dealing with the Castro brothers in Cuba. Their story serves as a reminder to all of us that the freedoms we enjoy are often the result of individuals who have suffered, fighting for those freedoms in the first place.
Some of our favorite student activists at Hillsdale College's Young Americans for Freedom are clearly ready for the holidays. But they aren't asking Santa for gifts. They're asking President Reagan to make their CPAC dreams come true! Watch their awesome submission for The Road to CPAC here:
Well, the U.S. Postal Service might not be able to deliver it! Instead of using valuable taxpayer dollars to fix the problems with mail delivery, they're busy spending it on costly projects with other companies, like Amazon.

Outsmarting Agencies

In 2004, the hospital, which is owned by Nashville, Tenn.-based HCA, regularly used contract labor to fill 70 full-time-equivalent posts. "Our contract labor cost was out of control," says Heckenkemper. When the nurse managers began looking for ways to address the problem, shift-bidding—allowing staff nurses to place an online "bid" to work an open shift at a higher rate of pay—was a novel idea that showed potential.
Nurses have always had the option of working extra shifts, but not at the higher rate afforded to agency hires. The shift-bid platform allows the hospital to "knock out the middle man" and increase the overtime pay for staff nurses from just a few additional dollars per hour to a rate greater than time-and-a-half, Heckenkemper says. Agency fees, which can be as high as $30 per hour, are taken out of the equation.
Rio Grande contracted with Austin, Texas-based Decision Critical, Inc., to use its Web-based StaffBid program in July 2004. "It has worked out extremely well for us because the nurses were on board before we even started it," Heckenkemper says.
Of the 343 employees who have access to the program, including nurses and surgical technologists, 73 percent have used it. Staff agency usage has been cut by 55 percent. Although Heckenkemper declines to quote numbers, a vendor case study finds that agency labor expenses for the hospital dropped from $800,895 in the first quarter of 2004 to $372,000 in first-quarter 2005.
The program also means that contract nurses, some of whom worked nearly full-time at the hospital through an agency, no longer have access to open shifts until staff nurses have had their pick. As a result, about 20 agency nurses have joined the hospital either full time or part time.

Supplemental Efficiency
Three years ago, Tuality Healthcare in Hillsboro, Ore., worked with 40 local and national staffing agencies to book as many as 22,221 hours in supplemental shifts a year. "Nothing was standardized, so every agency had its own method," says Steve Krautscheid, the two-hospital system's employment coordinator. "It was craziness."
With a frustrated staffing office fielding multiple phone calls and faxes from various agencies after a new opening was posted, Krautscheid knew the process had to be streamlined. After attempting to work with the agencies, Krautscheid turned to ShiftWise, a Lake Oswego, Ore.-based company looking for facilities to help develop its Web-based healthcare staffing management service.
Tuality has never looked back. Krautscheid says the system allows supervisors from nursing to the cath lab to log on and post open shifts. Vendors submit online profiles for the managers to browse. "When the manager is satisfied they've found the person they want, they click to confirm and that person shows up for the shift," says Krautscheid. Because users can compare the amounts charged, the hospital has seen a significant drop in hourly rates.
Krautscheid also touts other benefits—specifically access to real-time data. Users can view the number of supplemental staff used on a given day, over a specific period of time or for a particular shift. Tuality adds FTEs to their float pools wherever they see a buildup of agency usage. "It's much more convincing if we can demonstrate that we've needed somebody for a shift for the past six months," Krautscheid says.
The service is currently used by 275 hospitals that pay an implementation and training fee. Agencies pay a fee for each shift they fill using the system.

Nashua father indicted for negligent homicide in February crash
Huynh, who was driving a 1998 Mitsubishi 3000, was traveling southbound on the turnpike when he "lost control of the vehicle and struck the median barrier," causing his vehicle to overturn and rest on its roof in the northbound lane, according to a police affidavit filed by Trooper Gerard R. Ditolla.
According to Ditolla's affidavit, an odor of alcohol was detected while medical aid was being provided to Nghia Huynh, who was transported to Elliot Hospital in Manchester for an evaluation.
Ditolla said he visited Nghia Huynh at the Intensive Care Unit at the hospital, and confirmed that he allegedly smelled like alcohol, according to court documents.

Good. Every day I see yet again nothing happens about the revelations in Nicky Hager's book. Who did Rawshark give what? Waiting,…. nothing, and as Mandy Hager notes, Gower twitter yawns. What a big effort he's making there, so big, he exposes himself for what he stands for, absolutely nothing. I now find our media quite disgusting because of their efforts regarding the information in Nicky Hager's book. It is quite pathetic. I'm still enjoying some blogs tho' . We get some truths around here eh? Would be good to see a Journalist join forces with a Blogger and see if it could be put to good use rather than the slime regurgitated so successfully through Slater and those (like Jared Savage and other Herald writers) exposed in Dirty Politics. I am however truly amazed that the public are swayed to just not care. Seems too bizarre to me to not want truth in ones life. Seems doubly bizarre that NZ doesn't do outrage when our democracy is eroding on a daily basis. What's todays? Oh there it is, Terrorists are under the bed
At least David Fisher tries He seems alone. Kudos for his effort.

Oh, and also: the reporter Cheryl Howie ursued Bevan Chuang for comment on the story. What did they expect she'd say?
Is there a Mayoral Election any time soon? I noticed Banks getting Kudos in the Herald over the last couple of weeks. That would explain this smear of Len. The guns have been hired?
I suppose then , a bit of balance in the wings then.
Hard News: Some reprehensible bullshit, in reply to

By the comment "we renovated" I assume you did not pay commercial rates for builders (and joiners) and the ever lovely plumbers at 30-50$ per hour.
This comment sounds so many shades of wrong.
FFS. Pick your budget. Go with that. Shop around. Not everyone needs to watch the Bloody Block. Unless of course the human population is bereft of ideas with a need for just one more season.
Hard News: Incomplete, inaccurate and misleading,
Herald mentions the Select Committee submissions.
Hard News: Incomplete, inaccurate and misleading, in reply to
Without Select Committee it will be a shit piece of rushed through poorly drafted legislation. With Select Commitee it could be legislation that may help us have a better than shit inevitable legislation because it will go through no matter what. Labour do it this way,they always have but it never stops me from telling Goff what I think and this week is a good one to make your point expressing how untrustworthy National are and how dangerous this could be to our democracy and Goff of all people is in the perfect position to bombard him reminding him of how it turns to custard if National get their way. If people don't communicate with our Mps, how on earth will they know our feelings. One can't rely on them reading blogs to hear your views. They are all easy to write to . National are pointless puppets, Green are converted, it's up to people to complain to the ones that can get change to the legislation if nothing else, Dunne Maori and Labour possibly NZF. Seymour is just a seat filler. Labour/ Greens on their own cannot stop this.
Hard News: Incomplete, inaccurate and misleading, in reply to
Labour voted at the first reading to force it to go to select Committee stage so that it can be scrutinised . Write to your Mp or anyone you want to complain. Express yourself somewhere that might make a difference. Or, don't. It is obvious that it's pointless trying any National puppet though
Hard News: Incomplete, inaccurate and misleading, in reply to

- 1TO MAKE STUFFING: Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add celery and onion, and sauté 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in stuffing mix and remaining ingredients, stirring just until mix- hire is moistened. Remove 2 cups unbaked stuffing, and reserve to stuff in pork roast.

Santarus And Pharming Announce New Data From Open-Label Repeat Treatment Study With RUCONEST (Recombinant Human C1 Esterase Inhibitor)
Santarus, Inc. (NASDAQ:SNTS) and Pharming Group NV (NYSE Euronext: PHARM) announced that new data from an open-label extension of the pivotal Phase III clinical study with RUCONEST ® (recombinant human C1 esterase inhibitor, or rhC1INH) will be featured in a poster presentation on November 9 & 10, 2013 at the 2013 American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Annual Scientific Meeting at the Convention Center in Baltimore, Maryland. The poster is titled, Efficacy and Safety of Recombinant Human C1 Esterase Inhibitor for Acute Attacks of Hereditary Angioedema: An Open-Label Study.
RUCONEST was administered for the treatment of 224 repeat acute angioedema attacks in 44 patients with hereditary angioedema (HAE) following initial treatment in the pivotal randomized controlled clinical study. RUCONEST is an investigational drug in the U.S. and has been granted orphan drug designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of acute attacks of HAE.
"The results from this clinical trial are consistent with findings from previous studies supporting that RUCONEST reduces time to symptom relief when used for repeat HAE attacks," said H. Henry Li, M.D., Ph.D., Director of Chevy Chase Clinical Research, Institute for Asthma and Allergy, Chevy Chase, Maryland. "In addition, it is important clinically to evaluate the safety findings from these multiple exposures."
The median time in minutes (95% confidence interval [CI]) to onset of symptom relief following treatment as measured by patient responses to a Treatment Effect Questionnaire (TEQ) for the first five repeat attacks ranged from 62.5 (48, 90) to 134.0 (75, 150) and across all attacks was a median of 75.0 (69, 89). The median (95% CI) time in minutes to minimal symptoms (first three attacks per patient) as measured by a TEQ ranged from 243 (76, 1440) to 304 (150, 719) and for all assessed attacks was 303 (211, 367).

College students evenly split among religious, spiritual, secular
Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News
Thirty-two percent of college students are religious, 32 percent are spiritual and 28 percent are secular, according to survey results jointly released Thursday by Trinity College and the Center for Inquiry.
Reporting for USA Today, Bob Smietana wrote, "Each group or brand of students in the survey had a distinct worldview, researchers said. Religious students go to church, are more likely to believe in creationism or intelligent design, and oppose assisted suicide, adoptions by same-sex couples and gun control. Secular students do not believe in God, endorse evolution, accept assisted suicide as moral, say gay couples should be able to adopt and want more gun control.
"The spiritual students were split. They sided with the religious students on questions about God and with secular students on questions about politics and science."
Christianity proved a prevalent faith among both religious (70 percent) and spiritual (43 percent) students.
Napp Nazworth of the Christian Post reported, "The survey asked the respondents how often they attended religious services as a child. It found a strong correlation between attendance at religious services as a child and self-identification as religious while a college student."
"For the study, the researchers asked students nationwide a series of questions about their spiritual, political and moral values, ranging from belief in God and worship attendance to climate change and same-sex marriage," Katie Potin wrote for Red Alert Politics. " The one area the three groups had in common was global warming, with 96 percent of secular students and 80 percent of religious students worried about climate change."

Work Your Weak Points
The Fix: According to Boyce, "The biggest mistake people make is direct training to the forearms. They're assistant muscles, so they don't need to be trained as prime movers for them to grow." That may seem a bit counterintuitive, but Boyce isn't saying to neglect your forearms. Instead, don't rely on wrist curls as your primary muscle builder. Instead, stop using bandaids to cover up a weak grip. Avoid using wrist straps to help out your forearms on deadlifts and rowing variations. Rather than searching for isolation, train with heavy exercises that challenge your grip for more growth.
Exercises to Help: Farmer's walks are a simple and effective method for building up your forearms. Although they may look simple (just walking around holding a set of dumbbells), they're extremely challenging with the right amount of weight. If your gym doesn't have dumbbells heavy enough to make the exercise challenging, wrap a towel around the grip for an instant boost in difficulty.

So far, from this thread, we've learned Obama is:
1) From Kenya
2) A Communist
3) The Anti-Christ
4) A Godless Heathen
You shills crack me up :)
Personally, I could not care LESS whether or not some deity is mentioned by the President of the United States.
You know what DID rub me the wrong way? When George W. Bush said God came to him and was with him , supporting him to invade Iraq. THAT is sick.
Keep God out of politics. Keep God out of schools. Keep god out of EVERYTHING except for the family (if you choose), church, and your own shrine/meditation center/prayer table whatever you have.
They sure have, actually.
Let me tell you what kiddo, do yourself a favor and go open up a history book. It'll do you some good. Why don't you learn about how the standards of living were, when the Catholic church had more influence than any other power on this planet.
America, one of the greatest countries on earth, is that way BECAUSE of several principles which we hold dear, one of them being freedom of religion.
But yea, if you thought the Dark Ages and the Crusades were humanities high point in civilization, by all means, go live in some third world country where the the standards of living are the same. Let me know how you like it ;)
Things have gotten much better in this world since people have started to wake up, and break away from the the religious institutes that have dominated mankind for so long.
The mayans gave human sacrifices to their Deities. During the height of the Catholic church's power, you would be MURDERED if you taught science or spoke about it, among hundreds of thousands of other things people WEREN'T ALLOWED TO DO.
GOD is a personal thing. You should be able to be a great person, leader, or whatever your occupation is, regardless of which God you believe in, or if you believe in one at all. It should NEVER be a prerequisite , or even a PART of politics, or the workforce, or schools,e tc.

Climate Change, Species Vulnerability and Germination Thresholds
The temperature and salinity limits to germination can be modelled and used as predictive tools to assess the impact of climate change on seed germination.
A seed of the halophyte Suaeda maritima, one of the model species used to study seed responses to salt stress
Climate change, including temperature, and expansion of agriculture into marginal areas (such as salt affected lands) has resulted in many species growing in sub-optimal environments and being exposed to abiotic stress factors. Species vulnerability to stress factors is not only a function of length and duration of exposure (Kranner et al., 2010) but is also determined by phenotypic plasticity (i.e. sensitivity to stress) and genotype (i.e. adaptability to stress). Previous MSBP research (projects 'Seed Responses to Climate Change and Environmental Extremes', 'Maternal Environment Effects on Seed Germination and Dormancy: Inter-Site and -Season Comparisons', Separating Cardinal Temperatures for Seed Dormancy and Germination in Temperate, Sub-Tropical and Tropical Species) has studied the phenotypic plasticity present in seed germination and dormancy in response to climate change and maternal environment in a range of species. However, germination threshold models, which can be used as predictive tools, have not yet been considered.
Germination occurs between a base and a ceiling threshold temperature, with the highest germination rate occurring at an optimal temperature. The base temperature of germination can be incorporated into the calculation of thermal time for germination (i.e. temperature accumulation above the base temperature for the completion of germination) which is a measure of species sensitivity to temperature change. Such threshold models are currently being developed for over 50 taxa of Cactaceae through the research network established by the 'Cactus Seed Biology Database' project. We are examining the extent of phenotypic plasticity in cactus seed germination to give a perspective on changing environmental temperature and natural plant regeneration. Studies have been extended to threatened species of Sardinia, exploring threshold temperatures for morpho-physiological dormancy release and germination (Mattana et al., 2011).
Phenotypic plasticity is also being examined in species during germination in saline environments. Traditional crop species are not adapted to these stressful environments. However, halophytes have evolved to live in saline environments and offer untapped sources of oilseeds, forage and biomass. Currently, salinity threshold models are being developed in a range of halophytic species including from Northwest China and research has commenced into the mechanisms by which halophytic seeds tolerate salt stress during germination. The University of Sussex has also contributed their eHALOPH database of over 1500 species to the Seed Information Database. Our research on halophytes preceeded a four year EU COST Action FA0901 (putting halophytes to work – from genes to ecosystems, 2009-2013). Participation in the Action provides an excellent opportunity to bring together extensive seed collections of halophytic genera, such as Salicornia, developed by researchers across the EU and associated countries. In collaboration, we will progress our research into species vulnerability beyond phenotypic plasticity and consider the genotype in species adaptability to saline environments.
To date, the outputs of this project, which is part of the 'Sleeping Beauties' research theme, include the 'Cactus Seed Biology Database' which details the germination of 300 taxa (of which 86 records are new data), peer-reviewed scientific papers, and data have been presented at several conferences including plenary and keynote lectures. Furthermore, a visiting professor from Tarim University, China, and seven more visitors and students have contributed to this project; two UK college-based sandwich course students have also completed projects on 'seeds and salt'.
