Bank of America Launches New EOB Data Capture Image Lockbox Service for Healthcare Providers.
New service automates claims to payment matching for healthcare providers, allowing them to improve overall revenue cycle efficiencyLAS VEGAS, June 28 /PRNewswire/ -- HFMA 2005 Annual National Institute -- As part of its focus on creating innovative solutions for the healthcare market, today at the Healthcare Financial Management Association's (HFMA) 2005 Annual National Institute, Bank of America announces that it has entered into an agreement with HealthLogic Systems Corporation (HLSC) to deliver a new service for healthcare providers. The new service automates Explanation of Benefit (EOB) data capture and delivers it in a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) -- compliant file to enable healthcare providers to post and process remittance payments quicker and to expedite cash application.
The service addresses current payment challenges that healthcare providers face such as EOB data extraction, claims matching and HIPAA compliance. To date, most traditional lockbox image platforms have not been able to provide an automated solution to client requirements for EOB data capture. With the new Bank of America service, hospitals, labs and larger doctor practices are able to leverage automated data capture capabilities to expedite cash applications, reduce error rates in data capture, reduce expenses associated with manual data entry and payment/claim matching, automate matching receivables cash applications, and permit single billing. In addition, the service offers an expedient image file, creating an efficient solution for the healthcare industry.
"Healthcare providers today face many challenges in trying to achieve workflow efficiencies while still maintaining HIPAA compliance," said Catherine Warren, healthcare industry strategist for Bank of America Global Treasury Services (GTS). "As a top lender in the healthcare market and the number one provider of lockbox services, Bank of America is in the unique position to understand the challenges these providers face and to create technology solutions that best address their needs. Our new service is a perfect example of our dedication to this market as it helps our clients improve availability, reduce error rates in data capture and operational costs and eliminate paper-based processing -- all while maintaining HIPAA compliance."
Bank of America offers three expanded data capture solutions: Patient- level capture, Patient Plus and Proprietary data capture.
How it works
At Bank of America Lockbox Operations, checks and associated detail are scanned and images are created. Correspondence items (items received without a payment) are also scanned and images are created. By using image technology to process this payment information, data entry operators no longer key data, reducing error rates and operational costs.
An image file of checks and documents is then transmitted to HLSC where a HIPAA-compliant file is created and sent back to the client.
Clients may view lockbox images and payment detail on a Web-based image archive for one year, and view 45 days worth of check and remittance images on Receipts Direct. Clients may also view information reporting via Receipts Online and Bank of America will create CD ROMs to be delivered to the client.
"We believe our new service will help us to meet the needs expressed by our healthcare industry clients," said Aileen Gleason, Bank of America executive for U.S. Receipts Products. "They are a critical component of our lockbox client base and we are committed to bringing solutions to the market that achieve their goals. In addition to the new functionality, we are able to offer premium availability through our lockbox network because we are the number one check clearing financial institution in the U.S."
The new service is currently being piloted with several customers with full rollout scheduled for July.

Ok thank you and does anyone know anything about the Ruger Gunsite Scout Rifle?
gunny, i agree with the others, 308 would be fine for deer if you use the right ammo. the only real drawback i see with using a target rifle for hunting, is that target rifles are usually heavier than hunting rifles. also check your trigger pull weight to be safe for hunting. good luck deer hunting, and welcome to the forum.
Alright thank you and i will
If you have a place to sit, and do not have far to carry ... target guns will do fine for hunting. My 308 weighs over 13#.
I could make a list of a bunch of guns i have, or "have", or wish I had. Why would one feel compelled to provide that infornation freely? Do you feel the need to show off? Is it some immature game of oneupsmanship? Why do you feel it necessary to list your guns?
Thank you now i have more to think about and i never thought that i would get this many responses. Thank you all!
The rifle that i am looking at is the Ruger Gunsite Scout Rifle it weighs 7 pounds which doesn't seem like a lot

Report: Vt. near top in anti-tobacco spending
Vermont ranked 10th in the nation in 2012 for its funding of tobacco prevention and cessation programs, according to a coalition of public health organizations.
Ronda Williams, chronic disease prevention chief for the states Health Promotion Disease Prevention Division, said Vermont has succeeded in battling the prevalence of tobacco, reducing its rate of use, resulting in a cost savings.
Weve benefited from a strong and well-formed advocacy, Williams said. Even though its not an illegal product, its one we need to keep from use and perform every measure to prevent.
Since 1999, Vermont has seen its share of high school students who smoke drop to 13.3 percent, from 33.4 percent.
That information, and much more, comes from a national report, Broken Promises to Our Children: The 1998 State Tobacco Settlement 14 Years Later. It was recently released by numerous organizations including the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, the American Heart Association, the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, and the American Lung Association.
Vermonts commitment to tobacco prevention is paying off with large declines in youth smoking that will save lives and save money by reducing tobacco-related health care costs, said Matthew L Myers, president of the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, in a statement.
The tobacco settlement was reached in November 1998 between the four largest tobacco industries Philip Morris Inc., R.J. Reynolds, Brown & Williamson, and Lorillard and the attorneys general of 46 states. States Medicaid lawsuits were settled and the companies agreed to terminate certain tobacco marketing practices while making annual payments to states to compensate for the costs of caring for people with smoking-related illnesses.
Vermont will collect $127 million in tobacco revenue this year from the 1998 national tobacco settlement and from taxes on tobacco. However, just under $4 million will be spent on tobacco prevention, while the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that Vermont spend $10.4 million.
We do the best we can with the money that we have, and I think this administration is very forward thinking, Williams said referring to the unmet CDC recommendation. Fortunately, theres been more and more research of the values seen in well-funded tobacco programs.
Williams added that a state like California, which has a longstanding, well-funded control program, also has one of the lowest smoking rates of high school students in the nation 13.8 percent of 304,000 high school students, compared with Vermonts 13.3 percent over 4,800 students.
Williams continued, If a program dips below a certain threshold, youre going to see weakened outcomes. ... The prevalence starts to rise again.
Programs included in statewide tobacco prevention and cessation efforts include quit-online resources, quit-by-phone and one-on-one health coaching.
Also contributing to reduced tobacco use: Vermonts cigarette tax has increased by $2.62 per pack since 1999, according to the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids.
Williams said the Vermont Department of Health also looks to partner with local Rotary Clubs, Boys and Girls Clubs and other youth groups as well as community coalitions and individuals who have been responsible for creating smoke-free public areas.
Despite financing against tobacco products, the state spends only a quarter of what tobacco companies spend each year in Vermont $16.9 million.
The report also stated that 700 Vermont kids become new smokers every year while 800 lives are claimed annually by tobacco, costing the state $233 million in health care bills. Nationally, $96 billion each year is spent on tobacco-related health care costs.
Last year, Vermont had ranked 11th in funding tobacco prevention, spending $3.3 million compared with $5.5 million in 2009.
Overall, $25.7 billion will be collected by the states from the tobacco settlement and tobacco taxes; 1.8 percent, $459.5 million, will go toward tobacco prevention programs.
The CDC recommends that $3.7 billion go into prevention and cessation programs, yet all together states have budgeted only 12.4 percent of that. Alaska and North Dakota are currently the only states to fund at the CDC-recommended level. Alaska and North Dakota also rank first and second, respectively, in the report for funding such programs.
Tobacco use still remains the leading preventable cause of death in the U.S., claiming more than 400,000 lives every year, the report said.
Information and resources related to quitting cigarettes and other tobacco products are available online at www.vtquitnetwork.org.
These resources are made available to everyone no matter their circumstance, Williams said. Whether you call or visit your local cessation counselor, theyre friendly, theyre well trained and it works.MORE IN Vermont NewsWhile the recession is officially over, many of its effects continue to be felt in Vermont, where...

I saw your post in which you identified yourself as a weaver...may I ask, what kind of weaving do you do -- baskets? It sounds like you know baskets, but I'm also wondering if you do any other kind of weaving, e.g. textile, and if so, if you might have something to say about a woven textile piece I've had for a while that is rather unusual...but I didn't want to post it right off if that wasn't your area of expertise...thanks in advance! |

Hello, I am new to Gardenweb but already it seems to be a fantastic resource!! I have gardened for years but always at rental properties. I recently purchased my first home and am loving having complete garden freedom!!! I am looking for a small tree(30 ft or less ) to plant in my 6hr of sun, small backyard. I only have room for 1 tree so it has to be spectacular!!! Am looking for something with at least 3 season interest.
I have done some research and explored my local nurseries and so far I have come up with-japanese or korean stewartia, sourwood(some say questionable in zone 5), tri-color beech , heptacodium and 'oridono nishiki' japanese maple. Does anyone have any experience with any of these or any other suggestions? Help!! Thanks |

Cornus kousa - Chinese Dogwood. Hardy in zone 5 and flowers longer and later than Cornus florida. It's bark is exfoliating with age. The ones by the woodworking building at the Erie County Fair in Hamburg exhibit this trait. Mine set viable seed and was able to start new ones, thus saving a lot of $$$ - good for gifts for friends. It has an vase shaped appearance in youth, older trees have a rounded shape. The ones at th Fairgrounds, unfortunately are sheared so they cannot exhibit natural growth habit :( It is disease resistant and drought resistant, plus it will grow at a nice even pace - mine do. |

Recipe by Simply Whimsy
"Most everyone loves the taste of a salty sweet flavor. I have been using brine for years when making my turkey and chicken. I've tried this one or that one, but finally settled on taking the best elements of my 3 favorite ones to create my own with all the wonderful flavors of Thanksgiving."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

Watch video tips and tricks
1 cup kosher salt
1 (12 fluid ounce) can frozen orange juice concentrate
1 (12 fluid ounce) can frozen cranberry juice concentrate
1 gallon water
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cinnamon stick
1 lemon, cut into wedges
1 orange, cut into wedges
1 red onion, cut into wedges
3 cloves garlic
4 bay leaves
1 tablespoon dried thyme leaves
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
This was my first try at brining a turkey and I researched it for hours! This brine was something a little different and it turned out great. We have a new tradition for turkey!
I'm truly not sure how to rate this recipe. I'll start by saying that the turkey tasted great but I didn't really taste the flavors from the brine and the ingredients are too expensive to waste on something I'm not tasting. I've used other brines before and I don't feel the other ingredients added anything special. The cranberry juice dyed the bird an unappetizing pink and it browned way too quickly. I covered with foil but the skin was almost black by the time it was done. So in the future I think I'll pass on the frozen juices but use other features from this recipe.

I've never had my turkey get stained...Only thing I have ever had was praise for how good, tasty, and moist it is.
I made it for a work potluck and I am being asked for the recepie! It was a hit! It had alot of flavor. I was afraid to try something different, but now I am glad I did.
This year was my first time brining my meat. I used this as the base brine on my Christmas cornish hens. I added a few other spices, a little smoked paprika and red pepper for a kick. The hens baked and the flavor was throughout the meat. They baked evenly and we're moist. My family loved them. I can't wait to try it this summer with other meats and cooking methods.
I use this with Turkey breast and then I smoke them. Great!
I used this for Christmas dinner. I used some cranberry apple cider, too. I then made a cranberry injectate to add some more citrus flavor. I used my ninja and ground up fresh cranberries, 2 oranges (peeled), a lemon (peeled), 3 cloves garlic, lemon pepper and some more cranberry-apple cider. I then strained it and used the thin liquid to inject in the bird. I also kept the solid and used that as a rub for the outside. There were a lot of compliments on the flavor and moisture. This is my 2nd time brining and I won't ever cook a turkey without it again!
#1 Bring stock pot to a boil then let cool to help infuse the flavors. #2 debone Turkey with the exception leg's. thigh's and wing's this will expose more of the breast to the brine. #3 Layout Turkey breast down and spread out stuffing then secure the back of turkey together rollover oil and season.
Chili, brats, and more to feed your hungry football fans.

Oct. 21 (Bloomberg) -- European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet said the financial system needs to become "much more resilient," when calling for "bold" reforms.
"It's work in progress," Trichet, who will retire at the end of the month, told CNBC in an interview broadcast today. "The paradox of Europe is that Europe is quite solid in terms of fundamentals if you take Europe as a whole."
He also said that governments and central banks have taken "very important decisions" to contain the crisis, which is "hitting specifically the advanced economy and the financial system in the advanced economies." It's "something which calls for very profound lessons to be drawn," he told CNBC.

How Marijuana Legalization in America Is Destroying Mexican Drug Cartel Business
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/16/2014 18:26 -0500"The DEA doesn't want the drug war to end," said Nelson, when asked about a possible connection between the agency's hatred of legal pot and its buddies in Sinaloa. "If it ends, they don't get their toys and their budgets. Once it ends, they aren't going to have the kind of influence in foreign government. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but where there's smoke there's probably fire."
"We've spent 1.3 trillion since 1972 on the drug war. What have we gotten for that? Drugs are cheaper and easier to get than ever before,"
However, the Mexican drug cartels have been bailed out by America's drug warriors who have cracked down on prescription pain killers.

Top 10 Facts About The U.S. Illegal Drug Market
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 10/30/2013 15:47 -0500Recent surveys and research studies by sources from the UN to streetRx.com put the size of the illegal drug market in the U.S. at anywhere from $200 to $750 billion. The market is notoriously hard to track by design, and it is constantly evolving as prices and usage fluctuates; but as ConvergEx's Nick Colas notes, there's a plethora of data on the topic: formal surveys by the CDC and user-submitted blog posted on websites like Hightimes.com trace price, usage, and traffic stats for marijuana, powder and crack cocaine, d-methamphetamine, and heroin. Legalized dispensaries now allow us to estimate potential tax revenue from marijuana sales, while incarceration rates for drug offenders reveal the economic impact of the illegal drug trade. In short, while the illegal drug market might be hard to track – if only by virtue of its illegality – Colas points out that we can learn a lot about its size and scope by aggregating these formal and informal data. Most surprising of them all: illicit drug use is no longer the realm of just the youth.

More To Come
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/20/2013 07:16 -0500We have long held the opinion that the markets, all of them, have been buoyed by what the Fed and the other central banks have done which was to pump a massive amount of money into the system. There are various ways to count this but about $16 trillion is my estimation. The economy in America has been flat-lining while the economies in Europe have been red-lining and while China has claimed growth their numbers did not add up and could not be believed. In other words, the economic fundamentals were not supporting the lofty levels of the markets which had rested upon one thing and one thing alone which was liquidity. Yesterday was the first day of the reversal. There will be more days to come.

'Liberty Reserve' And Why Some Money Launderers Are "More Equal" Than Others
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/30/2013 20:49 -0500There are countless examples of rampant criminality and corruption as well as blatant evidence of a two-tier system of justice in America today. Too many to note or write about, but in this case we want to focus on this concept of "money laundering" in light of the recent shutdown of Liberty Reserve. The crackdown on Liberty Reserve has nothing to do with "money laundering." It's about a cartel of "too big to jail" banks and the fraud financial system they operate eliminating any players that try to encroach on their turf. That isn't capitalism, or socialism and it certainly isn't anything close to freedom. It is a parasitic, oligarch created feudalistic structure that must be done away with. We often hear people say "we never learn from our mistakes." Incorrect. People learn from their mistakes when there are consequences to their actions. Of course criminals don't learn from their mistakes when there are no serious consequences to their crimes.

How Many Billions Of Drug-Laundered Money Does It Take To Shut Down A Bank?
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/07/2013 18:30 -0500It's an odd question, we know - especially ahead of today's Stress Tests, but given today's testimony on assessing the bank secrecy act, apparent trouble-maker Elizabeth Warren pokes and prods (correctly we would add) at the surreality that exists between the Department of Justice, The Treasury, and the financial system. David Cohen, Tom Curry, and Jerome Powell dodged bullets and blame, "does that mean essentially we have a prosecution-free zone for large banks in America?" But Warren wasn't going to be fobbed off with useless banter as she pointed out, "if you're caught with an ounce of cocaine, the chances are good you're going to go to jail... for the rest of your life. But evidently, if you launder nearly a billion dollars for drug cartels and violate our international sanctions, your company pays a fine and you go home and sleep in your own bed at night - I think that's fundamentally wrong." Indeed Ms. Warren.

The Rise Of America's Lunatic Fringe
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/30/2013 21:43 -0500Anyone who spends any amount of time on the internet has seen them. They are the moonbats, the wingnuts, the whackjobs, the Conspiratorialists. They are America's new Lunatic Fringe, and their numbers are growing. To the uninitiated this all seems rather humorous, albeit slightly unsettling. It would be both wrong and unwise just to slough it off as the ramblings of the insane. The reason such beliefs are gaining favor is because many Americans have lost faith and lost trust in the government and in America's elected leadership. Given what has happened over the last decade, this is not only understandable, it is even, in an odd way, reasonable. A continual drift to the fringe can be expected because of the many very real things that make the foolish things suddenly more believable. The American people are well aware they have been lied to by the leadership. They know that a lobbyist has an infinitely greater chance of getting his way than an entire nation of voters. When trust is gone, everything becomes an affront, a conspiracy, a power grab by the elite.

36 South: "Let's Legalize Cocaine"
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 01/12/2013 21:20 -0500Think about it – a substance which makes one feel good, promotes a feeling of well-being and confidence…..what is the problem with that? The problem, as I explained to all my teenagers, is not that drugs are inherently bad per se, it is the medium to long term consequences of drug use that inevitably leave one worse off and forces one to make decisions one would not normally make e.g. selling your mother's wedding ring for drug money. Like the good pseudo-parents they are, the governments have (probably correctly) stepped in and outlawed drugs and their use. But there are other substances which also make one feel good, promote a feeling of well-being and confidence but is just as dangerous. With this substance the government does NOT limit use but promotes it! It is in fact the grower and distributor! What is this stuff? Hint …. Comes in two flavours: money (present money) and credit (future money).

A Siesta Key woman recently became the latest home-invasion victim in Sarasota.
At about 1 a.m. Tuesday, May 26, the woman was alone in her Whispering Sands Drive condo when a masked man broke in. He beat and raped her.
Col. Steve Burns, of the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office, said not enough is known about the attack to say definitively whether or not it is tied to a string of home invasions in Sarasota and Manatee counties since February.
But Burns did say that detectives are looking at the possibility of a connection.
Anyone with information is urged to call the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office at 861-1719 or leave an anonymous tip with Crimestoppers at 366-TIPS (8477).

I need some good information on a double action only 3" stainless 65-5 I found in a gunstore. It is used and very clean. I did the normal checks on the revolver to make sure it is in good mechanical condition and it seems to be in great shape. I have heard that this is a low to medium velocity, low to medium range bullet size revolver and strength is what it is NOT noted for. They want $275 for the gun. I would appreciate any info....especially from you S&W forum members. I really like the look, heavy barrel and great trigger this gun has....so what do you think????
I already have a 3" SP-101, so this is really an impulse buy!!!!

I started Orca Bay last year and my progress stalled around clue #6 before it was stuck into a tray until I picked it back up a week or so ago. Since the new mystery was starting so soon I wanted to try to make some progress before I started a new project, mostly to save space. This pattern can now be found in Bonnie Hunter's book String Fling. I got a lot done in a week! Put the blocks {Read More}
My Fabric Picks for Easy Street

Marianna Fault
The Marianna Fault is a fault located near Marianna, Arkansas. The discovery was first announced by seismologists on January 21, 2009. It is not part of the more famous nearby New Madrid Seismic Zone,[1] which is 100 kilometers (62 mi) away.[2]
Haydar Al-Shukri, director of the Arkansas Earthquake Center at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, discovered the Marianna Fault after searching for a fault since 2005.[3] The fault line is seven miles long,[4] with 110 meters (360 ft) dimensions.[2] The land above the Marianna Fault is mostly cotton fields, but the presence of fertile soil with stretches of fine sand alerted seismologists to the fault's existence. It is believed that the Marianna Fault has previously experienced an earthquake that would have measured 7.0 on the Richter magnitude scale, and may well do so again.[1] Al-Shukri believes that the fault was created 5,000 years ago.[3]
Previously, the predicted earthquake damage Marianna, Arkansas, might have received from the more distant New Madrid Fault suffering a 7.0 earthquake would be 100% architectural and content damage, half of all bridges suffering some damage, 2,955 displaced residents, and loss of phones and electricity.[5] The capital city of Arkansas, Little Rock, would also face damage.[4] A major natural gas pipeline is located near the fault, and could be devastated by any such earthquake.[1] Tennessee and Mississippi would possibly be affected as well.[6]
In 2006, a letter to the Seismological Research Letters indicated the possible existence of a fault at Marianna. Sand blows in the area were similar in size to the New Madrid sand blows, giving rise to the speculation of a new fault. It was believed that the Marianna sand blows were created between 5000–7000 years ago.[7] This followed a letter to the same journal a few months before saying that ground penetrating radar (GPR) was being used to study "large elliptical sand deposits" near Marianna.[8]
Haydar Al-Shukri announced the discovery of the Marianna Fault on January 21, 2009.[1] Days later Al-Shukri stated that more funding is required to study the fault, which would include studying if the fault is still active. The lack of seismic equipment in the vicinity is one factor in the need for additional funding.[3]
The most recent earthquake activity in the area around the fault was located ten miles northeast of Marianna in August 2008. It measured 2.6 on the Richter scale. Few quakes have been felt in the area since 1994.[3]

Hike begins about 16 miles north of Kernville on Mtn. 99. Just north of the Fairview Campground. Trail climbs 3 miles to the cave. Bring a flashlight to explore the cave to see the remaining stalactites and stalagmites .
Dalia Wilde (264)

It's one of the harder hikes I've done, but very fun. Start early because it gets really hot and bring lots of water. We did encounter a rattlesnake on the way (after the first time we crossed the stream) so be very careful. Headlamps, and flashlights are helpful. There's not really any signs showing you you're on the right path so after you've reached the big boulder next to the three headed tree keep walking for a few minutes and when the path divides into two take the left one up the mountain and you should be able to see the cave then. Watch out for the bats on top of the cave!

Just hiked this trail on 4/5/14 and its in good shape other then when it drops down into Packsaddle Canyon it gets a little brushy but passable. The creek is flowing due to the spring snowmelt so expect to get your feet wet as the trail crosses the creek a few times. Didn't go inside the cave but not to bad other then some minor vandalism at the mouth of the cave where people like to carve their names that they were here etc...

This just might be my new favorite hike. We made it a family event and all three of my kids enjoyed it. That being said we took our time and completed it in 4 hours there and back, stopping to play in the stream, for lunch and of course to explore the cave itself. I would recommend some sort of nose covering if you have allergies at all for in the cave as it's pretty loose sand and gets dusty with a lot of people walking around in there. Great views, lots of different elevations (up's and down's) and over all a great family adventure.
Wayne Moore (364)

Great trail. On the harder side of moderate. Cave is awesome, bring a flashlight. 5.5 miles to the cave and accent is close to 2000 ft. This site doesn't mention that.
John Hampton (607)

This is a fun little hike, not too hard, but it can get extremely hot in the summer! Bring plenty of water! The cave is pretty big, but easy to miss if you aren't paying attention. When you get the the Rincon trail sign, look up the mountain to your left and you will see the cave. Bring a flashlight and be safe!

Not an easy hike for those who are used to lower elevations. And yes, start early if you go in July. 95 degrees when we started at 9am.
John Hampton (607)

I did this hike this last weekend and it was pretty cool. The weather was about 80 degrees and it still felt pretty hot. There is no shade until you get to the creek crossings and everything else is pretty dry and dusty. The cave was great and there is plenty to explore. I hiked the trail with my one year old daughter on my back, stopped to eat at the cave with some exploring, total trip time was about 3 hours.
Joshua Stuck (365)

I would consider this hike moderate to difficult. I hiked this trail in january and it was snowing the whole way. There was about 6 inches of snow on the trail. There is only like 960 feet in elevation gain from trail head to the cave but total elevation gain from all the decends and back up equals 2,240 feet for the whole hike. The cave was awesome after about two miles you will see the cave up the mountain to the left. Overall i thought this waa a great hike and enjoyed the scenery in the snow.
Anna Wu (2237)

If you plan to visit this trail during July like I did, start early and bring lots of water. I started my hike around 10am; it was HOT, not much shades until I reached the creek. Trailhead is across the road just north of Fairveiw Campground. Trail ascends up to cross the mountain and descends to a creek, then up again to the cave (bring flashlight).

CigarSex is an Encyclopedia Dramatica meme that consists of adding mustaches,beards,monocles,cigars,tophats and other accessories that signify class and style to pictures with the use of MSpaint.
The meme originated during April of 2011,when a man named Aaron S. Pawlowski (aka "Beefrave") came to the Encyclopedia Dramatica and began spaming it with a never ending flood of nonsense written almost entirely in all caps. He later continued this on the Encyclopedia Dramatica forums until he was rewarded for his persistent shitposting by being (temporarily) made a moderator. The "CigarSex" meme itself happened when,at one point,Aaron began using MSpaint to crudely draw on stock images of babies.His favorite unneeded addition was a beard and smoking cigar. Soon he was once again flooding the chatroom an forums with these pictures. Surprisingly,this caught on,and withing days the Encyclopedia Dramatica forums were flooded with CigarSex threads where monocles and other fineries were being added to any and all things.
State of the meme.
Since then the meme has been forgotten,after accusations arose of Pawlowski's alleged pedophilia,insanity and shameless attention whoring and desire for internet fame. Now the meme is used mostly in irony.

V Playlist: 2 Chainz x Lil Wayne, Trey Songz, Pac Div, Metabeats x Action Bronson, Boogz Boogetz x Trae Tha Truth, Ellie Goulding
VIBE's Daily Additions to the 'Pod
1. 2 Chainz (feat. Lil Wayne) – "Yuck"
We all love it when 2 Chainz has fun on his tracks, but it's even better when he takes a song seriously. From the beat on this to his flow & wordplay (we gotta admit—the hot potato verse was pretty dope), we get to see him really starting to embrace his inner lyricist.
2. Trey Songz – "Eat It Up"
Aside from the fact that this is NSFW, we're really not sure what to say about this one. Ladies, enjoy?
3. Pac Div – "Bank"
Yeah, the single cover isn't a mislead or metaphor: they're literally talking about robbing banks. At least the subject matter is different than the typical "cars, cash, hoes" verses. Versatility—that's what hip-hop is all about, right?
4. Metabeats (feat. Action Bronson) – "Hookers"
Bronson's 90s influence is definitely in the right place. Majority, if not all, of the recent bars we've heard from the kid are lyricism at its finest—including this one right here. We just need him to switch up the cadence every now an then. He can sometimes sounds the exact same way on each song he raps on, which for some can be boring.
5. Boogz Boogetz (feat. Trae Tha Truth) – "H Town"
The beat on this is definitely one to be savored. Starting off on some 70s R&B type shit, it soon turns into a slow groove low-rider anthem. Boogz' smooth flow matches the mood perfectly. Prepare to chill to this one.
6. Ellie Goulding – "Anything Could Happen"
Although she can sound a bit trembly at times, Ellie is becoming one of our favorite UK acts. She's different-yet-weird—in a good way—and makes music that separates her so far from her peers that it's almost hard to call her Pop. Either way, she's molding a sound for herself.

In Zoroastrianism and Parsiism, the final saviour of the world. He is the foremost of the three saviours who are posthumous sons of Zoroaster. He is expected to appear at the end of the last millennium of the world, miraculously conceived by a virgin who has swum in a lake where Zoroaster's seed is preserved. He will vanquish demonic power and resurrect the bodies of the dead, bestowing eternal perfection on them after all souls have been cleansed.
