Hello all! I am a long time lurker who is finally getting ready to begin our MB remodel. DH wants a big shower... really big... as in right now, he'd like to take one whole end of the room, which would be a shower approx. 8.5' long by 5.5' wide. He and I are still in discussions about this. I have searched thru as many previous threads as I can find and just want to make sure I understand what's involved in a curbless shower. So... since this is a remodel and the current shower is curbed AND the floor of the shower is slightly higher than the bathroom floor... in order to go curbless, the existing floor joists would have to be lowered and reinforced in order to create the correct slope from the shower door to the drain? DH would like curbless but there will have to be some trade-offs for cost. Is this expensive? Does it matter which way the floor joists run? Is it worth it? We are middle aged and do not currently have any issues with access. Realistically, if we get to the point where negotiating the curb in our shower is too much, there will be bigger issues with the house and we would be downsizing. Thanks in advance! |

You've got to have 4" in height difference between the drain and the edge of the shower. The slope of the shower can be between 1/4"-1/2" per foot. Using a trench drain at the opposide side from the shower entrance seems to work best for many curbless showers as opposed to the giant bowl in the middle where everything slopes down to it. It gives you the ability to have less slant because you've got more distance from the shower entrance. Yes, it's "expensive". Depends on the structure of your house if it's merely "expensive" vs. "exorbitant" and it depends on your economic scale as to where those terms begin for you. As to whether or not it's "worth" it to you, for most people, a nice large shower IS worth the expenditure. A shower that has the blocking in the wall so that the grab bars can be attached at any time IS worth it. Curbless---eh, maybe. As far as a shower that large, think twice unless you are also installing supplemental heat like a heat lamp. Even then, that's a lot of open space for your steam to heat up on a cold morning. I'm shivering just thinking about it! |
Hollysprings, Thanks for the explanation. We may get an estimate for curb less but it sounds like its not an absolutely must have. DH's big shower is still under negotiation...... And we have decided to do radiant heat in both the bath and shower floors in addition to the baseboard heat. Thanks! |
I'm not certain where hollysprings' 4" reference comes from, it's typically 2" when referencing IRC code. That's a minimum of 2" from the top of the drain to the top of the curb. In a curbless shower, the beginning of the slope at the shower entry would be the "top of the curb." Over the course of the 8' length of the shower, using 1/4" slope per foot would give you the needed 2" vertical. FWIW, my master shower is about 8' by 5'. No door. NOT curbless. It's not cold. I do have RFH throughout my house though. To help with the elevations changes, you can "drop the framing" in the shower as you wrote about, or you can build the bathroom floor up vertically outside the shower. Both have costs and issues, especially in a remodel. Dropping the framing in the shower is much easier when working with new construction. If you have easy access through a drywalled ceiling below, it can be done. But it can be involved. Probably the more prudent thing to do is if your shower is indeed 8' long, you can do as hollysprings wrote and have the drain at the far end of the shower, away from the entry. But don't make it a true curbless. If you went with a standard vertical curb at the entry and used a topical membrane, your vertical curb at the entry would only have to be a couple of inches tall. If you wanted it to be a roll-in shower, you could easily turn that 2" vertical curb into a "roll-over ramp" at the shower entry, sort of like a speed bump. A small rise up, then the long slope down in the shower terminating at the linear drain. |
Thanks Mongoct! I think I we will have curb but will look into a linear drain on the far wall. |
They will have to lower the flooring enough not only for the 2" slope, but also for the pan. Probably going to be right at 4" for all that. |
A few weeks ago we had a consult with an apparently high end kitchen/bath designer. He said it would cost 5000-7000 extra to do this. We are on a concrete slab so it is probably a lot more work/expense that without a slab. |
We LOVE our curbless shower. It WAS expensive. We have a pier and beam foundation. I don't know exactly the inches but I learned that because our shower was 5 X 5, this made it so it could be identified as an ADA compliant shower - no larger or smaller works for this label - must be 5X5. Once you are ADA compliant, rules can change and in some case are more lenient as far as the floor slope. You need to check your local code. Don't want that wheelchair toppling over, I guess. We have a linear drain on the far wall away from the shower opening (3 ft wide) and which always drains well with no water coming out the shower opening (we chose not to put in a door and not having a door adds SOoo much wonderful ambience, it is great) and though I don't know inches precisely, there is no way it is a 4 inch drop on the tile floor. Maybe beneath, it took four inches but I doubt it since no "shower pan" as such was used, I'm pretty sure just Schlueter waterproof sheets/products were used. We also had radiant floor put in to keep any possibility of drafts down in the winter. But I'm obviously not into the details on this very well and got help from Mongo on some of this so I will defer to him on the contruction details. But I would like to say most importantly that the 5X5 is a perfect size and we wouldn't really get any more enjoyment from an 8X5 but your mileage may vary. I can be using the fixed shower installed on one side of the room and easily reach across to the hand held shower installed on the opposite side of the room at the same time. Room enough for two. AND turn on the rain shower in the middle. Fun, fun, fun. And because ours was 5X5, we had space to put a closet on the other side of the wall of the shower for use in the adjacent room. Closet also gave us a place to install the Moen idigital shower valve and access panel. This really allows the shower walls to have a clean look and adds even more fun to the whole process of showering, IMO. It was quite expensive but if we had to make the choice again, we would still choose the curbless. But make sure your contractor has experience cause I definitely got the impression you want someone who knows what they are doing. |
Thanks for all the feedback. As cool as curbless sounds... I think we will probably end up with a curb. I will research getting the drain (maybe linear) of the far wall as Mongo mentioned to minimize the the height of the curb. The wish list for this bathroom is, at this point, a blank slate. The budget however, is firmly rooted in reality. I think this is one of those things that is on the "nice to have" as opposed to "have to have" list. I've seen picture of a few with curbs done with marble slabs as opposed to small tiles that look pretty nice. And stylistically, it works as our house is a pretty traditional New England colonial. BUT I am now on a hunt to find out about Elfaba's Moen digital shower valve....... Thanks, it's sounds like a great idea! |
Regarding Moen digital shower - it is WONDERFUL but... we had to learn the hard way that it needs a battery backup so that if the electricity goes off, the digital shower won't turn off until it is manually reset. Isn't the end of the world but we have to "reset" the data line for the valve by going to the access panel whenever there is a power outage (like when the guys work on the house). My NEXT bit of advice, make sure you have a 2nd bathroom with traditional shower valves so in case there is a power outage, you can still take a shower. The biggest hassle has been the learning curve, i.e. before we realized what the problem was. We almost had the access panel put in the attic. THANK GOODNESS we didn't do that. I called Moen and the customer service there recommended the power back up. Also, FYI - there is a video on youtube.com that shows a standard installation. My contractor watched that and didn't charge me anything extra. Though someone else here on gardenweb said their contractor charged them extra because of the complexity - funny but to me, it is actually simpler than regular shower valves and definitely a cleaner look. Oh well - |

1 I solemnly implore you, in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus who is about to judge the living and the dead, and by His Appearing and His Kingship: | 1 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: |
2 proclaim God's message, be zealous in season and out of season; convince, rebuke, encourage, with the utmost patience as a teacher. | 2 Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage--with great patience and careful instruction. |
3 For a time is coming when they will not tolerate wholesome instruction, but, wanting to have their ears tickled, they will find a multitude of teachers to satisfy their own fancies; | 3 For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. |
4 and will turn away from listening to the truth and will turn aside to fables. | 4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. |
5 But as for you, you must exercise habitual self-control, and not live a self-indulgent life, but do the duty of an evangelist and fully discharge the obligations of your office. | 5 But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry. |
6 I for my part am like a drink-offering which is already being poured out; and the time for my departure is now close at hand. | 6 For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time has come for my departure. |

A 21-year-old convicted burglar remained in jail Tuesday night, after he allegedly bit a Naperville police officer and tried to hit him with his police radio during a scuffle that sent the officer to a hospital emergency room.
Gino J. Alomri lives on the 5S000 block of Spyglass Court, in the unincorporated Fairway of Country Lakes/Green of Country area of DuPage County near Naperville's far northwest side. He is being held in DuPage County Jail on $100,000 bail, as well as a "no bond" hold that was placed on him by officials of the Illinois Department of Corrections in Springfield, according to jail records.
Alomri was paroled Aug. 6 from the Stateville Correctional Center in Crest Hill, after serving a four-year term for a November 2010 residential burglary in DuPage County. Court records show he now faces trial on charges of burglary, identity theft not exceeding $300 and resisting or obstructing a police officer causing injury.
Naperville police Sgt. Bill Davis confirmed Alomri was arrested about 12:30 p.m. July 8, during a disturbance at the Speedway service station at 631 N. Route 59, at the northwest corner of its intersection with North Aurora Road.
A clerk at the station called police after he or she "recognized (Alomri)," Davis wrote Tuesday in an email. Alomri several days earlier had allegedly been at the station "trying to use a stolen credit card that was taken from a vehicle in the 2900 block of Dearborn Court," Davis said.
The alleged vehicular burglary occurred July 6, Davis said. Dearborn Court is just east of Route 59 and a few blocks north of the Speedway.
Davis said police determined Alomri, who also goes by the name Alomri-Martin, "was also wanted on a parole violation warrant. When the officer went to place (Alomri) under arrest for the warrant, (he) pulled away … and attempted to flee the store," Davis said.
"The officer was able to grab ahold of him, but he continued to resist and struggle," Davis said of Alomri. "During the struggle, (Alomri) attempted to strike the officer" with his portable police radio "and bit the officer in the arm."
More police arrived at the scene and wrestled Alomri into handcuffs. Davis said the injured officer "sustained a cut and abrasions to his arm," and was released later that day from Edward Hospital in Naperville, after undergoing treatment in the emergency room.
Alomri and another man were arrested in early April, after they allegedly stole at least one credit card from vehicles they had burglarized in the Willowbrook area. Court records indicated the charges against Alomri in that matter were dismissed later that month.
He is scheduled to appear Aug. 4 in DuPage County Circuit Court, to answer the charges in the Naperville case.

Harvested the first Arctic Star today. It was a small, split pit specimen. But it had that great low acid flavor that Arctic Star fans appreciate. Have to say it trumped some superb Orangered and Robada apricots and some potently sweet/tart cherries. The best cherries right now are 28+ brix, very sweet/tart, Bing and Benton. They are also superb but nothing has as rich a flavor as a great nectarine. Rainier and Royal Rainier, both blush cherries are softer, lack the tart side of flavor profile, and aren't not as good as the dark cherries. |

Follow-Up Postings:
I think part of it is where they are grown. The Rainer here are much better than the dark. They certainly are not soft either. Of course they also are far from being ready this year. So that also might have something to do with it. Many are just forming at this point. Something also is I have never seen a nectarine flavored anything. Cherry on the other hand. That really doesn't say anything, but to me cherry flavor cannot be beat. I'm going to have to fed-ex you some of our rainier, so you can make a comparison. It may just be me. I do also like nectarines. A good nectarine is awesome, like they say apple and oranges, I can't really say I like them better. or worse, they are so different from cherries. I do though like that cherry flavor even bad ones. Cornelian cherries, red currants, etc are my fav kinda fruits. Sort of taste like tart cherries. You seem to have a finer palate than me, it's hard for me to distinguish at times. I also love hot peppers, the hotter the better! Probably burned out my taste buds long ago! |
Drew: All nectarines aren't the same by a long shot. I've had many poor ones. You need the right variety and growing conditions. I suspect that many experienced growers can't imagine a great tasting low acid anything. The low acid white peaches I've grown have been largely junk. Same with some nectarine, not all. Part of today's ration of fruit, from top left: Arctic Star. Robada, Cot-N-Candy, and Springhigh blueberries. CNC isn't as good as Robada or Orangered. Springhigh is way better flavor than Star, Emerald, or Santa Fe also ripe now. |
fruitnut, How does Arctic Star compare to Honey Royale? Also,did your Springhighs come from Florida Hill Nursery? Brady |
- Posted by blueboy1977 TX9A/B (My Page) on Tue, May 20, 14 at 20:51
Very nice Fruitnut, I just pruned my Springhigh last night. Hopefully I can get it to really bush out this year and double my lbs for next spring. Finally got it into a 30 gallon pot so it can possibly reach its full size over the next few years. |
Brady: I'd rate Arctic Star a step behind Honey Royale. But for as early as Arctic Star matures it's one great fruit. Flavor Supreme matures about the same time as Arctic Star and is only slightly behind. Depending on how well I've grown them anyone could come out on top. I did learn one thing from this yrs Arctic Star. I think I caused the high incidence of split pits by thinning too much too early. I'll correct that another yr. Yes my Springhigh were from FHN. I'm pretty sure I've got it ID correctly. |
Thanks fruitnut, I'll probably give Springhigh a try and maybe even Honey Royale,if it will produce here. Brady |
FN What does "split pit" mean, other than the dictionary meaning of the words? Mike |
Split pit means the pit has been pulled into two parts by the forces of the expanding fruit. Shattered pit means the pit has been broken into many parts. Some of my Arctic Star has shattered pits. On early maturing varieties thinning too much and too early can cause the remaining fruit to grow so fast that it pulls the pit to pieces. This yr I got carried away in my zeal for the sweetest fruit. Thinned even earlier and more than usual. Paid the price. On very early maturing peach/nectarine you are caught between a rock and hard place. Don't thin enough/early and the fruit is small and possibly bland. Thin too much and pits can split/shatter. I now know where the line is with Arctic Star. Later maturing varieties have harder pits at least partly because they have a much longer pit hardening stage. Early fly right thru that stage. |
Nice haul, fruitnut! My morning fruit plate had a huge 'Black Jack' breba, some boysenberries and blueberries. I agree that a dead ripe nectarine is hard to beat. My 'Arctic Star' got hit pretty hard by Mr, Squirrel and family --in broad daylight. The ones that I've brought in so far have been excellent this year. |

Marin Theatre Company had modest grassroots beginnings. In 1966, 35 Mill Valley residents came together under the leadership of Sali Lieberman to create the Mill Valley Center for the Performing Arts [MVCPA]. The nonprofit organization brought arts as diverse as film, theater, poetry, dance and concerts of classical, jazz and folk music to Marin County for a decade. After a number of successful community theater productions, MVCPA began to exclusively produce and present theater performances in 1977.
The small group overcame many challenges to put on critically-acclaimed, award-winning plays in a golf clubhouse, a veterans' auditorium and several schools and parks. To acknowledge the organization's specialization in theater arts and expanded regional focus, MVCPA changed its name to Marin Theatre Company in 1984. This marked the beginning of a period of extraordinary growth.
By 1987, MTC had become a professional theater company, opening its own theater complex with onsite administrative offices and joining with other local theaters to negotiate the first regional equity contract in the Bay Area. Since then, MTC began a new play program to support emerging American playwrights, launching a New Works developmental workshop and public reading series in 2004 and establishing two new play prizes in 2007. MTC joined both the League of Resident Theatres and National New Play Network in 2008. MTC is now the leading professional theater in the North Bay and premier mid-sized theater in the Bay Area.
35 residents of the greater Mill Valley area, under the leadership of Sali Lieberman, are organized by Mayor Albert E. White and appointed to a Performing Arts Committee. The committee forms the Mill Valley Center for the Performing Arts (MVCPA) with an endorsement from the City Council, and begins operating under the newly created Arts Commission. This is the first group of its kind in the Bay Area to receive official sanction from a city.1967
Bay Area pianist Julian White opens MVCPA's first season, which includes concert recitals, dance, film series and theater productions presented at the Mill Valley Golf Clubhouse. MVCPA's first play is Friedrich Duerrenmatt's The Physicists.1968
MVCPA incorporates as a nonprofit. A.J. Esta becomes MVCPA's first artistic director; Sali Lieberman becomes MVCPA's first managing director1969
MVCPA gains visibility when it draws "capacity audiences every night" for its critically acclaimed production of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, adapted by Dale Wasserman from Ken Kesey's novel and directed by Robin Jackson. The following year, future MTC Artistic Director Lee Sankowich mounts a commercial San Francisco production of the play, starring three members of the MVCPA cast. That production runs for five years, becoming the longest running show in San Francisco history. Robert Adler becomes artistic director. -
MVCPA produces theater exclusively for its 1972-73 Season. Offering six shows, MVCPA sells season tickets for the first time (all six shows for $12).1973
MVCPA begins offering concerts again. Start of 1973-74 Season delayed by a moratorium on use of Golf Clubhouse by the City Council because of recommendations by the fire chief and building inspector for "fire prevention" retrofits. Will Marchetti becomes MVCPA's Managing Director.1975
MVCPA begins producing theater exclusively again, offering six shows. MVCPA sells season tickets for the second time in history, 6 shows are $15. Sali Lieberman becomes MVCPA's Managing Director again. During the run of Clifford Odet's The Flowering Peach, the Golf Clubhouse burns down and the remainder of the 1975-76 Season is cancelled.1976
MVCPA is largely inactive while the City of Mill Valley rebuilds the Golf Clubhouse. It stages a few productions at Edna McGuire School and Marin Veterans Auditorium.1977
MVCPA inaugurates new Golf Clubhouse with production of N. Richard Nash's The Rainmaker. Robin Jackson becomes Managing Director.1978
MVCPA serves as the fiscal sponsor to the newly-formed Mill Valley Film Festival, which presents films in the Golf Clubhouse. Will Marchetti becomes MVCPA's President. Michelle Swanson becomes MVCPA's Artistic Director.1979
Will Marchetti becomes MVCPA's Artistic Director. Marchetti expands the company's repertory to include original work, committing to produce one premiere each season. MVCPA establishes a full-time Theatre Arts School. -
MVCPA opens first administrative office above Davood's Restaurant in downtown Mill Valley. MVCPA receives grant from San Francisco Foundation to support 15th Anniversary. MVCPA has 180 subscribers. Sali Lieberman becomes MVCPA's Managing Director again.1981
MVCPA celebrates 15th Season. MVCPA receives three-year grant from San Francisco Foundation to support a part-time marketing and public relations director. MVCPA offers special concerts, including Kronos Quartet.1982
MVCPA establishes M.A.S.K. (Marin Acting School for Kids). MVCPA completes feasibility study and announces interest in purchasing 397 Miller Avenue (known as the "Port") to build its own theater with rehearsal space, dressing rooms, concessions and storage. MVCPA has 350 subscribers. MVCPA founder Sali Lieberman dies in October. Harry Perlis becomes Interim Managing Director.
Hired the previous year as MVCPA's first dramaturg, Karl Rawicz becomes Artistic Director. He replaces Will Marchetti, who leaves to join the cast of the Off Broadway production of Sam Shepard's Fool for Love with Circle Repertory Company. Andrew Zarillo becomes MVCPA's first full-time Executive Director.1984
MVCPA purchases and begins renovations on 397 Miller Avenue, home to our current theater. Karl Rawicz's position of Artistic Director is upgraded to full-time for the first time in organization's history. MVCPA changes its name to Marin Theatre Company (MTC).1985

Link for setup ideas...
http://model-sailplane.dialog.jp/xplolerer_mini_01.html |
Jan 11, 2011, 11:07 AM | |
Scott thanks for posting the link, It good to see how someone else is doing this. Regarding the motor, it is a tight fit for a 35mm outrunner there is not much room for the wires to get past the spinning motor. I have glassed in a length of thin wire to keep the motor wires away for the motor, in the link to the other build I see a fairing has been added and wires taken out of the fuz. This is not an issue if an inrunner or even outrunner with gb were used. Good luck with that decision.
The rudder gives plenty of movement with this set up, about 32mm each way, 64mm total. Much more and you will hit the elevator. The front of the rudder had to be relieved to avoid popping off the ball link on full right rudder. There is a piece of spruce added behind the surface to mount the ball link in. The fin post also had to be slimmed to increase movement. The aileron servos are Vigor VS-12M, not sure whether or not these are good enough, there is some movement in the gears. If they effect flying qualities they will be ripped out. The other 4 servos are all Turnigy TGY-90s, they seem fine for the other jobs. Graham ImagesView all Images in thread

There is some play in the elevator on mine too, not too much but would like less, the wings by comparison are a pretty tight fit. Any ideas welcomed. Pete, I'll go with your thinking, sounds wise to stick the antennas out, better safe than sorry. I have some 400mm antennas so can put the rx wherever it needs to go for the sake of the cog or tidyness. Regarding HL comps I managed 2 last year so hope to improve on that this year! Mostly I just enjoy trying to catch thermals Yes the Frsky rx has full failsafe, how do you have yours set? Graham |
Jan 13, 2011, 08:05 PM | |
One fix to improve the fit of the carbon tailplane joiner rod. Try a careful application of thin cyano on the rod. Wait until it has gone really hard and then try the fit. If it's still loose give it another cyano hit. Again wait until its really hard to try the fit. If you go too far and the rod becomes over size, rub it down with very fine abrasive 'wet & dry paper' or a rubbing down paint cutting compound like 'T Cut'.
I set my fail-safe for 60% full Crow but with UP elevator, and motor off. This shows in the air, if you do get a signal loss, as a sudden pitch up. If you do have a real 'fail-safe' situation this setup takes all the airspeed out of the model, the pitch up gradually decays to a series of slow gentle stalls, and by the time the model arrives on the ground it is less likely to be flying fast enough to cause damage to what ever it arrives on. Worked on 2 occasions for me when I flew on 35mhz. Pete |
Jan 14, 2011, 06:27 PM | |
Thanks Pete that sounds like a good plan.
So spent 2 hours this evening and had drilled two holes in the fus for the antenna wires, good thing the summer is a long way off Had to sort out where the rx would go then label the servo wires before pulling them out, then plugging it all back together the right way round. The rx is in front of the servos at the moment. The rx now has 400mm antennas so can reach well back behind the wing to exit. Graham |

Dec. 3 (Bloomberg) –- Microsoft founder and billionaire Bill Gates is giving four stars to a new kind of egg that is hoping to disrupt the $9 billion dollar industry. Hampton Creek Foods is using technology, science and culinary expertise to replicate egg products sans chickens at a fraction of the cost. The company's first shelf-ready brand "Just Mayo," has already made its way to several store shelves including Whole Foods. Bloomberg's Rachel Crane tours this high-tech food lab with CEO Joshua Tetrick to find out what it will take to crack the primitive egg industry. (Source: Bloomberg)

GAO's 2013 High-Risk Update:
Medicare and Medicaid
GAO-13-433T: Published: Feb 27, 2013. Publicly Released: Feb 27, 2013.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
Carolyn L. Yocom
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
What GAO Found
Medicare Program: CMS has not met GAO's criteria to have the Medicare program removed from the High-Risk List. For example, although CMS has made progress in measuring and reducing improper payment rates in different parts of the program, it has yet to demonstrate sustained progress in lowering the rates. Because the size of Medicare relative to other programs leads to aggregate improper payments that are extremely large, continuing to reduce improper payments in this program should remain a priority for CMS. Further, CMS should complete some actions required by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) that were designed to improve the integrity of the program, such as determining which providers must post surety bonds to help in recovering payments for fraudulent billing, using fingerprint screening for high-risk providers, issuing a final regulation that requires providers to disclose additional information, and establishing core elements for provider compliance programs.
Medicaid Program: Congress, HHS, and CMS have taken steps to improve the fiscal integrity of Medicaid, and CMS has implemented certain GAO recommendations, such as improving the information collected on certain supplemental payments and issuing guidance to states to better prevent payment of improper claims. However, more federal oversight of Medicaid's fiscal and program integrity is needed.
Why GAO Did This Study
This testimony discusses GAO's recent work on Medicare and Medicaid. Since 1990, GAO has regularly reported on programs as part of our high-risk series, which focuses on government operations that we have identified as high risk due to their greater vulnerability to fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement or their need to address economy, efficiency, or effectiveness challenges. GAO's high-risk series has brought much-needed focus to problems impeding effective government and costing billions of dollars each year. These remarks on Medicare and Medicaid are drawn from GAO's 2013 high-risk update.
Medicare Program: In 2012, the Medicare program covered more than 49 million elderly and disabled beneficiaries at an estimated cost of $555 billion, and reported improper payments estimated to be more than $44 billion. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), which administers Medicare for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is responsible for implementing payment methods that encourage efficient service delivery, managing Medicare to provide efficient and cost-effective services to beneficiaries, safeguarding the program from loss, and overseeing patient safety and care. Like health care spending in general, Medicare spending has grown faster than growth in the economy for many years. In the coming years, continued growth in the number of Medicare beneficiaries and program spending will create increasing challenges for the federal government.
GAO designated Medicare as a high-risk area in 1990 because of its complexity and susceptibility to improper payments, which, added to its size, have led to serious management challenges. Medicare spending must be held much more firmly in check to sustain the program over the long term, while continuing to ensure that beneficiaries have access to appropriate health care. To help do so, GAO has identified opportunities to make Medicare payment methods more efficient and cost-effective. In addition, the size of the program makes it important for CMS to manage program functions more effectively and better oversee the program's integrity and quality of patient care.
Medicaid Program: The Medicaid program is a federal and state program that covered acute health care, long-term care, and other services for about 70 million low-income people in fiscal year 2011; it is one of the largest sources of funding for medical and health-related services for America's most vulnerable populations. Medicaid consists of more than 50 distinct state-based programs. The federal government matches state expenditures for most Medicaid services using the Federal Medical Assistance Percentage, a statutory formula based in part on each state's per capita income. Medicaid is a significant expenditure for the federal government and the states, with total expenditures of $436 billion in 2011. CMS is responsible for overseeing the program at the federal level, while states administer their respective programs' day-to-day operations.
GAO designated Medicaid as a high-risk program because of its size, growth, diversity of programs, and concerns about the adequacy of fiscal oversight, which is necessary to prevent inappropriate program spending. Both Congress and the administration have demonstrated commitment and leadership to making Medicaid fiscal and program integrity a priority.

Alternate title: Godzilla Versus Bioranch, Godzilla vs. Biollante
Four years after Toho's semi-successful re-launch of their Godzilla series with Godzilla 1985, the studio released this vastly-superior sequel. In the chaos following the Green One's rampage in the previous installment, clean-up crews discover a large quantity of sloughed-off cells from the radioactive behemoth, which become the source of some international intrigue as agents from a fictitious nation nab a quantity of the cells from American mega-corporation BioMajor. The cells fall into the hands of obsessed scientist Dr. Shiragami, who intends to cross-breed them with plant life. After his daughter is killed in a sabotage attempt by BioMajor, Shiragami determines that her spirit has occupied a special rose bush... which, naturally, the loony Doc decides to splice with Godzilla cells, producing a 30-story-tall tentacled rose-monster dubbed "Biollante." BioMajor pulls yet another stunt, setting off a bomb which releases Godzilla from his mountain prison, leading to the inevitable showdown between the two. Vastly superior effects and a more interesting Godzilla design mark this as a more confident return to form, although the English-language print sports the usual hilarious dubbing, which gives one Japanese executive a thick Southern drawl. ~ Cavett Binion, Rovi

It's only appropriate that on the day the world is supposed to end that the first trailer for a movie about the end of the world should debut. This Is The End stars Jonah Hill, James Franco, Seth Rogan, Jay Baruchel, Craig Robinson and Danny McBride as themselves and is set to release in the summer of 2013. It looks like this should be hilarious.

Although I've just purchased five new bathing suits, I think I may have to get at least one more from the J.Crew Swimwear 2010 collection (after all, one can never have too many). Simple and elegant, it's a line perfect for the sophisticated woman who has taken time off from her busy career to enjoy some summer sun.
That doesn't mean, however, that there isn't something for each "swim personality," as Fab Sugar puts it. In fact, the J.Crew Swimwear 2010 collection offers quite a few options including bandeau-style bikinis and onesies.

Talk about double standards. A New Jersey school is implementing a "no cursing" rule for their students, but only for the female students.
Girls at Queen of Peace High School, a catholic school in Arlington NJ, have been asked to take a pledge to clean up their language. The boys were asked not to curse around the ladies, but not asked to stop their cursing all together. The real head shaker in this is that Lori Flynn, the teacher who started this pledge, does not see it as a double standard. She says the administration wants the "ladies to act like ladies" because they feel that the girls swear more. They also believe that if the girls stop swearing that this good behavior will "rub off on the boys". To make this even better, the school is handing out lollipops and pins with "pink lips and red sashes" as incentive for the girls to clean up their language. Students seem to like this idea, but the response has been interesting. One female student thinks that everyone should take the pledge because "boys should act like gentlemen", while a male student thinks girls who curse are unattractive, but won't stop his cursing on the baseball field.
Feel how you will about cursing, but when you ask students to take a pledge it should be to all students. Making up rules for one sex and not hold the other up to the same measure is a double standard. If you want these students to act like adults, treat them as such. And leave the f*cking "lollipops for good behavior" to the dentists.

The ASUS Maximus VII Formula motherboard is one of the newest members of the ROG (Republic of Gamers) product line, integrating several new features to elevate the board to an entirely new level over is predecessor. From outward appearance the Maximus VII Formula looks very similar to its previous revision, the Maximus VI Formula. However, ASUS made some under-the-hood enhancements and minor layout adjustments to the board, utilizing the functionality of the integrated Intel Z97 chipset. The Maximus VII Formula comes with a premium MSRP of $369.00, but is well worth the cost given the premium feature set and performance potential of the board.

Europeans: Atlast! Has Haswell-based Fanless NUCs
Subject: General Tech, Systems | September 29, 2014 - 06:41 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: fanless, nuc, haswell
The Akasa Newton X is a fanless case for the NUC form factor that was announced in May and released a couple of months ago. Now, we are beginning to see system builders (albeit in Europe) integrate it in some higher-end devices. This one, from Atlast! Solutions, is built around the Intel Core i5-4250U, up to 1.5TB of SSD storage (512GB Crucial M550 mSATA + 1TB 840 EVO SATA), and up to 16GB of RAM. It can also be configured with up to two-antenna Wireless AC.
The Core i5-4250U is a dual-core (four threads) processor that is rated for 15W TDP. Its on-chip GPU is the Intel HD Graphics 5000 with a peak, theoretical compute throughput of 704 GFLOPS. This makes it a little under three-times the graphics performance of an Xbox 360. In terms of PC games, you are looking at Battlefield 4 or Titanfall on low at 1024x768 (or basically whatever your home server can do if used as a stream-to target).
Prices currently start at £449.00 for 4GB of RAM and 60GB of mSATA SSD, including VAT.
Thanks to FanlessTech for covering this story.
ECS hosted a press event in the third week of August to unveil its new product lineup and corporate direction. The press event, named "Live, Liva, Lead, L337", lays out the important aspects of the "new ECS" and its intended market direction. They introduced the LIVA mini computer with integrated 32GB and 64GB integrated SSDs, their Z97-based product line-up, and the North America LIVA design contest.
Their naming of the event was apropos to their renewed corporate vision with the first two terms, Live and LIVA, referencing their LIVA mini-PC platform. ECS developed the name LIVA by combining the words Live and Viva (Life in Spanish), signifying the LIVA line's aim at integrating itself into your daily routine and providing the ability to live a better life. Lead signifies ECS' desire to become a market leader in the Mini-PC space with their LIVA platform as well as become a more dominant player in the PC space. The last term, L337, is a reference to their L337 Gaming line of motherboards, a clear reminder of their Z97 offerings to be unveiled.
ECS seeks to consolidate its product lines, re-focusing its energy on what it excels at - offering quality products at reasonable prices. ECS seeks to leverage its corporate partnerships and design experience to build products equivalent to competitor lines at a much reduced cost to the end user. This renewed focus on quality and the end user led to a much revised Z97 board lineup in comparison to its Z87-based offerings. Additionally, their newly introduced mini-PC line, branded LIVA, seeks to offer a cheaper all-in-one alternative to the Intel NUC and GIGABYTE BRIX systems.
You've probably noticed Intel launched a new family of chips

[H]ard|OCP reviewed Intel's brand new Extreme processor, the Haswell-E i7-5960X as weill as posting a large amount of Intel's launch slides detailing the new features present in this series of CPU. As you can see from the picture they used the same funky white ASUS motherboard which Ryan used in his review but chose a Koolance EX2-755 watercooler as opposed to the Corsair H100i which allowed them to hit 4.5GHz with 1.301v CPU core voltage, slightly lower than Ryan managed. In the end, while extremely impressed by the CPU they saw little benefits to gaming and recommend this CPU to those who spend most of their time encoding video, manipulating huge images and of course those who just want the best CPU on the planet.
"There are many members of the "1366 X58 Enthusiast Overclockers Club" that have been waiting with bated breath for Intel's launch of the new X99 Express Chipset and new family of Core i7 Haswell-E processors. All this new hardware comes bundled with brand new DDR4 RAM technology packing huge bandwidth as well."

Lenovo Shows Off New Y70 Touch Notebook and ERAZER Desktop Gaming PCs
Subject: Systems | September 4, 2014 - 03:42 AM | Tim Verry
Tagged: y70 touch, Lenovo, haswell, gaming notebook, gaming, Erazer
Yesterday, Lenovo unveiled two new gaming systems at IFA in Berlin. The new Y70 Touch is a 17-inch gaming notebook while the Erazer X310 and Erazer X315 are mid-tower desktops. All three systems will be available later this month.
The Y70 Touch is Lenovo's first desktop replacement notebook with a touchscreen. The 25.9mm thick notebook features a 17.3" 1080p display, backlit keyboard, and JBL-powered stereo speakers (with subwoofer). It can be configured with up to an Intel Haswell i7 processor, NVIDIA GTX 860M GPU with 4GB RAM, 16GB of DDR3 system memory, and 1TB solid state drive (SSD). (Storage options include 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB SSD options.) Lenovo is including an external disc drive with the gaming PC which was left out of the chassis itself to maintain its slim form factor and to reduce weight.
The Y70 Touch gaming notebook starts at $1,299 and will be available in the US later this month.
If desktops are more your style, Lenovo is now offering up the Erazer X310 and X315 mid-tower PCs. The X310 and X315 will share the same black mid-tower chassis but will use different internal hardware. the X310 with Intel Haswell CPUs will be available worldwide while the AMD APU-powered X315 will be exclusive to North America.
The ERAZER X310/X315 case is all black with a stealthy angular front panel design that hosts two 5.25" bays and a blue LED-backlit power button. The X310 can be configured with up to an Intel Haswell i7 CPU while the X315 supports AMD "Kaveri" APUs up to the A10 series (e.g. A10 7850K). Users can choose up to a NVIDIA GTX 760 (2GB) or AMD Radeon R9 255 (2GB) graphics card. The mid-tower has four PCI slots and in theory could support further DIY upgrades but GPU length would be limited and the power supply may need to be upgraded as well. Further, both systems feature up to 32GB system memory and a maximum of 4TB mechanical hard drive, 2TB hybrid hard drive or 256GB solid state storage.
The new ERAZER X310 and X315 desktops will be available shortly starting at $599.

Haswell-E shows its stuff
Subject: Processors | August 29, 2014 - 02:08 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Intel, Haswell-E, haswell, evga, ddr4, corsair, core i7, asus, 5960X
The Tech Report took the new i7-5960X, Asus X99 Deluxe, 16 GB of Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4, a Kingston HyperX SH103S3 240GB SSD and a XFX Radeon HD 7950 DD and set it loose on the test bench. The results were impressive to say the least, especially when they moved on from games to test productivity software where the Haswell architecture really shines. When they attempted to overclock the CPU they found a hard limit feeding the processor 1.3V and running 4.4GHz, any faster would cause some applications to BSoD. On the other hand that applied to all 8 cores and the difference in performance was striking.
Also make sure to read Ryan's review to get even mroe information on this long awaited chip.
"Haswell-E has arrived. With eight cores, 20MB of cache, and quad channels of DDR4 memory, it looks to be the fastest desktop CPU in history--and not by a little bit. We've tested the heck out of it and have a huge suite of comparisons going to back to the Pentium III 800. Just, you know, for context."

Revamped Enthusiast Platform
Join us at 12:30pm PT / 3:30pm ET as Intel's Matt Dunford joins us for a live stream event to discuss the release of Haswell-E and the X99 platform!! Find us at http://www.pcper.com/live!!
Sometimes writing these reviews can be pretty anti-climactic. With all of the official and leaked information released about Haswell-E over the last six to nine months, there isn't much more to divulge that can truly be called revolutionary. Yes, we are looking at the new king of the enthusiast market with an 8-core processor that not only brings a 33% increase in core count over the previous generation Ivy Bridge-E and Sandy Bridge-E platforms, but also includes the adoption of the DDR4 memory specification, which allows for high density and high speed memory subsystems.
And along with the new processor on a modified socket (though still LGA2011) comes a new chipset with some interesting new features. If you were left wanting for USB 3.0 or Thunderbolt on X79, then you are going to love what you see with X99. Did you think you needed some more SATA ports to really liven up your pool of hard drives? Retail boards are going to have you covered.
Again, just like last time, you will find a set of three processors that are coming into the market at the same time. These offerings range from the $999 price point and go down to the much more reasonable cost of $389. But this time there are more interesting decisions to be made based on specification differences in the family. Do the changes that Intel made in the sub-$1000 SKUs make it a better or worse buy for users looking to finally upgrade?
Haswell-E: A New Enthusiast Lineup from Intel
Today's launch of the Intel Core i7-5960X processor continues on the company's path of enthusiast branded parts that are built off of a subset of the workstation and server market. It is no secret that some Xeon branded processors will work in X79 motherboards and the same is true of the upcoming Haswell-EP series (with its X99 platform) launching today. As an enthusiast though, I think we can agree that it doesn't really matter how a processor like this comes about, as long as it continues to occur well into the future.
The Core i7-5960X processor is an 8-core, 16-thread design built on what is essentially the same architecture we saw released with the mainstream Haswell parts released in June of 2013. There are some important differences of course, including the lack of integrated graphics and the move from DDR3 to DDR4 for system memory. The underlying microarchitecture remains unchanged, though. Previously known as the Haswell-E platform, the Core i7-5960X continues Intel's trend of releasing enthusiast/workstation grade platforms that are based on an existing mainstream architecture.

Since the introduction of the Haswell line of CPUs, the Internet has been aflame with how hot the CPUs run. Speculation ran rampant on the cause with theories abounding about the lesser surface area and inferior thermal interface material (TIM) in between the CPU die surface and the underside of the CPU heat spreader. It was later confirmed that Intel had changed the TIM interfacing the CPU die surface to the heat spreader with Haswell, leading to the hotter than expected CPU temperatures. This increase in temperature led to inconsistent core-to-core temperatures as well as vastly inferior overclockability of the Haswell K-series chips over previous generations.
A few of the more adventurous enthusiasts took it upon themselves to use inventive ways to address the heat concerns surrounding the Haswell by delidding the processor. The delidding procedure involves physically removing the heat spreader from the CPU, exposing the CPU die. Some individuals choose to clean the existing TIM from the core die and heat spreader underside, applying superior TIM such as metal or diamond-infused paste or even the Coollaboratory Liquid Ultra metal material and fixing the heat spreader back in place. Others choose a more radical solution, removing the heat spreader from the equation entirely for direct cooling of the naked CPU die. This type of cooling method requires use of a die support plate, such as the MSI Die Guard included with the MSI Z97 XPower motherboard.
Whichever outcome you choose, you must first remove the heat spreader from the CPU's PCB. The heat spreader itself is fixed in place with black RTV-type material ensuring a secure and air-tight seal, protecting the fragile die from outside contaminants and influences. Removal can be done in multiple ways with two of the most popular being the razor blade method and the vise method. With both methods, you are attempting to separate the CPU PCB from the heat spreader without damaging the CPU die or components on the top or bottom sides of the CPU PCB.
Intel Haswell-E De-Lidded: Solder Is Its Thermal Interface
Subject: General Tech, Processors | August 24, 2014 - 03:33 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: Intel, Haswell-E, Ivy Bridge-E, haswell, solder, thermal paste
Sorry for being about a month late to this news. Apparently, someone got their hands on an Intel Core i7-5960X and they wanted to see its eight cores. Removing the lid, they found that it was soldered directly onto the die with an epoxy, rather than coated with a thermal paste. While Haswell-E will still need to contend with the limitations of 22nm, and how difficult it becomes to exceed various clockspeed ceilings, the better ability to dump heat is always welcome.

While Devil's Canyon (Core i7 4970K) used better thermal paste, the method used with Haswell-E will be event better. I should note that Ivy Bridge-E, released last year, also contained a form of solder under its lid and its overclocking results were still limited. This is not an easy path to ultimate gigahertz. Even so, it is nice that Intel, at least on their enthusiast line, is spending that little bit extra to not introduce artificial barriers.
Intel is disabling TSX in Haswell due to software failures
Subject: General Tech | August 12, 2014 - 01:07 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Intel, haswell, tsx, errata
Transactional Synchronization Extensions, aka TSX, are a backwards compatible set of instructions which first appeared in some Haswell chips as a method to improve concurrency and multi-threadedness with as little work for the programmer as possible. It was intended to improve the scaling of multi-threaded apps running on multi-core processors and has not yet been widely adopted. The adoption has run into another hurdle, in some cases the use of TSX can cause critical software failures and as a result Intel will be disabling the instruction set via new BIOS/UEFI updates which will be pushed out soon. If your software uses the new instruction set and you wish it to continue to do so you should avoid updating your motherboard BIOS/UEFI and ask your users to do the same. You can read more about this bug/errata and other famous problems over at The Tech Report.
"The TSX instructions built into Intel's Haswell CPU cores haven't become widely used by everyday software just yet, but they promise to make certain types of multithreaded applications run much faster than they can today. Some of the savviest software developers are likely building TSX-enabled software right about now."

Technical Analysis: Conclusion
By Cory Janssen, Chad Langager and Casey Murphy
This introductory section of the technical analysis tutorial has provided a broad overview of technical analysis.
Here's a brief summary of what we've covered:
- Technical analysis is a method of evaluating securities by analyzing the statistics generated by market activity. It is based on three assumptions: 1) the market discounts everything, 2) price moves in trends and 3) history tends to repeat itself.
- Technicians believe that all the information they need about a stock can be found in its charts.
- Technical traders take a short-term approach to analyzing the market.
- Criticism of technical analysis stems from the efficient market hypothesis, which states that the market price is always the correct one, making any historical analysis useless.
- One of the most important concepts in technical analysis is that of a trend, which is the general direction that a security is headed. There are three types of trends: uptrends, downtrends and sideways/horizontal trends.
- A trendline is a simple charting technique that adds a line to a chart to represent the trend in the market or a stock.
- A channel, or channel lines, is the addition of two parallel trendlines that act as strong areas of support and resistance.
- Support is the price level through which a stock or market seldom falls. Resistance is the price level that a stock or market seldom surpasses.
- Volume is the number of shares or contracts that trade over a given period of time, usually a day. The higher the volume, the more active the security.
- A chart is a graphical representation of a series of prices over a set time frame.
- The time scale refers to the range of dates at the bottom of the chart, which can vary from decades to seconds. The most frequently used time scales are intraday, daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and annually.
- The price scale is on the right-hand side of the chart. It shows a stock's current price and compares it to past data points. It can be either linear or logarithmic.
- There are four main types of charts used by investors and traders: line charts, bar charts, candlestick charts and point and figure charts.
- A chart pattern is a distinct formation on a stock chart that creates a trading signal, or a sign of future price movements. There are two types: reversal and continuation.
- A head and shoulders pattern is reversal pattern that signals a security is likely to move against its previous trend.
- A cup and handle pattern is a bullish continuation pattern in which the upward trend has paused but will continue in an upward direction once the pattern is confirmed.
- Double tops and double bottoms are formed after a sustained trend and signal to chartists that the trend is about to reverse. The pattern is created when a price movement tests support or resistance levels twice and is unable to break through.
- A triangle is a technical analysis pattern created by drawing trendlines along a price range that gets narrower over time because of lower tops and higher bottoms. Variations of a triangle include ascending and descending triangles.
- Flags and pennants are short-term continuation patterns that are formed when there is a sharp price movement followed by a sideways price movement.
- The wedge chart pattern can be either a continuation or reversal pattern. It is similar to a symmetrical triangle except that the wedge pattern slants in an upward or downward direction.
- A gap in a chart is an empty space between a trading period and the following trading period. This occurs when there is a large difference in prices between two sequential trading periods.
- Triple tops and triple bottoms are reversal patterns that are formed when the price movement tests a level of support or resistance three times and is unable to break through, signaling a trend reversal.
- A rounding bottom (or saucer bottom) is a long-term reversal pattern that signals a shift from a downward trend to an upward trend.
- A moving average is the average price of a security over a set amount of time. There are three types: simple, linear and exponential.
- Moving averages help technical traders smooth out some of the noise that is found in day-to-day price movements, giving traders a clearer view of the price trend.
- Indicators are calculations based on the price and the volume of a security that measure such things as money flow, trends, volatility and momentum. There are two types: leading and lagging.
- The accumulation/distribution line is a volume indicator that attempts to measure the ratio of buying to selling of a security.
- The average directional index (ADX) is a trend indicator that is used to measure the strength of a current trend.
- The Aroon indicator is a trending indicator used to measure whether a security is in an uptrend or downtrend and the magnitude of that trend.
- The Aroon oscillator plots the difference between the Aroon up and down lines by subtracting the two lines.
- The moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is comprised of two exponential moving averages, which help to measure a security's momentum.
- The relative strength index (RSI) helps to signal overbought and oversold conditions in a security.
- The on-balance volume (OBV) indicator is one of the most well-known technical indicators that reflects movements in volume.
- The stochastic oscillator compares a security's closing price to its price range over a given time period.

This pilot episode was contracted to Jay Ward Productions (which in turn contracted it to Creston Studios); thus, the visual style is different.
The only "Three Stooges" cartoon to feature Paul Frees' voice.
In the beginning sequence of a three-minute, live-action wraparound, Moe, Larry and Curly Joe are dressed in old army uniforms and say that they are reminiscing about their service in World War I. In the end sequence, the Stooges' old army sergeant (who says he is making up for the lunches that he used to steal from the boys) shows up and gives them a lunch pail which explodes when they open it up!
Plans to animate such other comedians as the Marx Brothers and Jack E. Leonard were shelved.
The release date for all 156 cartoons is considered fall 1965, as that is the delivery date by syndicators to the stations. According to an advance trade ad by Heritage Productions, the series was sold to 37 major markets in 30 days.
