The Department of Defense (DOD) provides health care through its TRICARE program, which is managed by the TRICARE Management Activity (TMA). TRICARE offers three basic options. Beneficiaries who choose TRICARE Prime, an option that uses civilian provider networks, must enroll. TRICARE beneficiaries who do not enroll in this option may obtain care from nonnetwork providers under TRICARE Standard or from network providers under TRICARE Extra. The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 directed GAO to evaluate various aspects of beneficiaries' access to care under the TRICARE Standard and Extra options. This report examines (1) impediments to TRICARE Standard and Extra beneficiaries' access to civilian health care and mental health care providers and TMA's actions to address the impediments; (2) TMA's efforts to monitor access to civilian providers for TRICARE Standard and Extra beneficiaries; (3) how TMA informs network and nonnetwork civilian providers about TRICARE Standard and Extra; and (4) how TMA informs TRICARE Standard and Extra beneficiaries about their options. To address these objectives, GAO reviewed and analyzed TMA and TRICARE contractor data and documents. GAO also interviewed TMA officials, including those in its regional offices, as well as its contractors.
Reimbursement rates and provider shortages have been cited as the main impediments that hinder TRICARE Standard and Extra beneficiaries' access to civilian health care and mental health care providers. Providers' concern about TRICARE's reimbursement rates--which are generally set at Medicare rates--has been a long-standing issue and has more recently been cited as the primary reason civilian providers will not accept TRICARE Standard and Extra beneficiaries as patients, according to TMA's surveys of civilian providers. TMA can increase reimbursement rates in certain instances, such as when it determines that access to care is being affected by the level of reimbursement. Shortages of certain provider specialties, such as mental health care providers, at the national and local levels may also impede access, but these shortages are not specific to the TRICARE program and also affect the general population. As a result, there are limitations as to what TMA can do to address them. TMA has primarily used feedback mechanisms, including surveys of beneficiaries and civilian providers, to gauge TRICARE Standard and Extra beneficiaries' access to civilian providers. More recently, in February 2010, in recognition that TRICARE has had no established measures for monitoring the availability of civilian network and nonnetwork providers for these beneficiaries, TMA directed the TRICARE Regional Offices to develop a model to help identify geographic areas where they may experience access problems. GAO's review of the initial models found their methodology to be reasonable. However, because the regional models were recently developed, it is too early to determine their effectiveness. TMA's contractors educate civilian providers about TRICARE program requirements, policies, and procedures. Contractors also conduct outreach to increase providers' awareness of the program, and while TMA's provider survey results indicate that civilian providers are generally aware of the program, this does not necessarily signify that providers have an accurate understanding of the TRICARE program and its options. Similarly, TMA's contractors educate beneficiaries on all of the TRICARE options and maintain directories of network providers to facilitate beneficiaries' access to care. When the new TRICARE contracts are implemented, TMA will also require its contractors to include information on nonnetwork providers in their provider directories. In commenting on a draft of this report, DOD concurred with GAO's overall findings.

Assassin's Creed
Question from TOPJPO3
On memory block 4, in Jerusalem, all view points and synchronized and still no investigations. What now?
Explain to me what to do, in detail please.
5 years ago
If you have not yet gone out of the first district you have to go to your map set a marker into a separate district and if that is the next district go in look for a building that looks tall enough to be a viewpoint climb it if it is a viewpoint synchronize and it will show up
5 years ago
Go into the rich district and look for any viewpoints and keep synchronizing them until you find one. It has to be the rich district unless in Jerusalem.In Jerusalem its the poor district.
5 years ago
Did you maybe forget to go to the assassins bureau?
4 years ago
If you just entered the city and did all the view points in the rich district when you assassinated the slave trader and have just returned the problems usually simple. You see next you'll have to enter the poor district than with your own eyes spot a view point then syncronize. The game wont automatically show new viewpoints or information targets after your first visit.

Hensarling to NCUA: Define 'reputation risk'
Jeb Hensarling
May 27, 2014 – House Financial Services Chairman Jeb Hensarling, R-Texas,
NCUA Board Chairman Debbie Matz and other regulators with concerns that the regulatory agencies in question are issuing "subjective judgments" based on "reputation risk," which is not an official part of the CAMELS rating system.
Regarding reputational risk, Hensarling writes, "It is not clear to me that the data that inform analysis of this type of risk - which remains too vaguely defined to deliver any predictability to those institutions you regulate – are not already accounted for in a regulator's analysis of an existing CAMELS indicator, like, for example, liquidity."
The other agencies Hensarling addressed include: the FDIC, the Federal Reserve, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.
Hensarling requested a written response by June 12 regarding whether NCUA and the other agencies consider reputational risk, what effect that risk might have on safety and soundness, and whether a negative rating of that risk could affect an otherwise well rated institution.

Air show canceled
due to federal cuts
ESSEX JUNCTION Organizers have the Wings Over Vermont air show, saying they couldnt hold the August event after studying the impact of automatic federal spending cuts.
The Vermont National Guard Foundation announced the cancellation Wednesday. The U.S. Air Force Demonstration Team, the Thunderbirds, were scheduled to headline the show.
The implementation of across-the-board cuts in federal spending has caused the curtailment of the Thunderbirds 2013 show schedule. Effective April 1, all of the teams performances have been cancelled, according to the Thunderbirds web site.
The foundation noted the Department of Defense directed the Air Force to cancel aviation support to public events for the remainder of the fiscal year.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Teachers are urging lawmakers to carefully consider any legislation that could...

RICE is one I use the most. [… continue reading] In this post, I'm going to address some of the more frequent questions that are being asked in the comment section of my post "8 Tips for How to Treat a Knee Injury and How to Know If It's Bad." The questions seem to center around the following: [… continue reading] Sometimes it's not that easy to tell a sprain from a broken ankle. Just this past year, a seventyish-year-old woman came limping into the clinic where I was working to have her ankle checked. Seemed she had twisted it a couple of weeks before and her husband was going to keep nagging her until she came in. The X-rays revealed a break. A pretty bad one at that. She couldn't believe it. I don't know if she was more upset that she was going to need a cast and crutches or she'd have to acknowledge that her husband was right. Many people come to the clinic convinced they have a break or just as sure it's just a sprain. Often they end up being wrong. It's not so easy for doctors to tell either. Fortunately we have the benefit of X-rays. But what if getting an X-ray is impossible? What can tip you off that it's a sprain or a broken ankle? And why does it matter?

[… continue reading] It's football season and prime time for knee injuries. But truth be told, I see them all year long—in athletes and the rest of us. They happen at home, at work, and during any recreation at any age. Sometimes they happen when you're just standing still and twist the wrong way. When you hurt your knee, it may be evident you've done major damage. Often, though, it's not so clear. Knee-sprain symptoms can be the same as symptoms from something more serious. Even we doctors sometimes have a tough time telling a sprain from a tear. One reason is it's hard to try to move a swollen, painful knee. So what can you do when no one medical is around? There are a few things, but first, it helps to know the anatomy. [… continue reading] by James Hubbard, M.D., M.P.H. Okay, class. In recent posts, I've written about finger injuries and how to treat them. In case you weren't quite able to grasp :-) how to make the different finger splints, I've made you a video. My homemade splints may not be the prettiest, but they should be as effective as any until you can get definitive medical treatment. Whether the splint's metal, wood, or the uninjured finger next to the injured one (a buddy splint), the objective is the same: keep the injured area stable until it heals.

But a break doesn't always cause paralysis—if people react to it correctly. Spinal bones surround and protect the fragile spinal cord. You can feel their prominences, called spinal processes, along your neck and back. Like any bone they can be broken. The difference is, if this fracture moves, it can push against and permanently damage the spinal cord.

Perlite and the Electric Company
This little rock can be found in everything from lightweight aggregate to futuristic insulation.
By Bill Langer
We love living in the Sonoran Desert, but the temperature gets high in the summer, as does our electric bill. To help reduce the cost, my son-in-law, Rob, helped me blow insulation into our attic, doubling the original thickness. My wife, Pam, and I also replaced our halogen lights with LEDs, cutting down both electric usage and the heat generated by the lights.
Apparently, we are not the only people doing this. Our electric company recently added a Lost Fixed Cost Recovery (LFCR) charge to our electric bill because customers have taken so many energy-saving measures that usage has significantly dropped. The electric company can no longer meet its fixed operating costs, so we get to help them out.
Well, a rock called perlite is just waiting to exacerbate the problems of the electric company. Perlite consists of glassy volcanic material which, upon rapid controlled heating, "pops" into frothy, low-density particles. Nearly half a million tons of expanded perlite are produced in the United States every year for use as lightweight aggregate, insulation, soil amendments, and numerous other applications. With a density between 8 and 40 cubic yards per ton, that's a lot of perlite.
So here is how perlite can help reduce electrical usage. The quantity of heat it takes to increase or decrease the temperature of the thermal mass of a building envelope (the physical separator between the interior and the exterior environments of a building) can vary greatly. For example, an adobe or concrete structure has much more thermal mass than a framed wood wall of equal thickness. Thermal mass reduces temperature variations, resulting in decreased energy consumption in some climates.
Researchers are investigating ways to increase thermal mass by incorporating phase-change materials (PCMs) into the building envelopes. The most recognizable PCM is paraffin wax. Others are chemicals or organic materials, many with unrecognizable names. Most PCMs for building applications change from a solid to a liquid (melt) near room temperature — somewhere between 68 and 86 degrees Fahrenheit.
It takes a large amount of energy (called the latent heat of fusion) to weaken the molecular bonds of a PCM in order to make the jump from an ordered state (solid) to a disordered state (liquid). So, when the temperature surrounding the PCM rises to the melting point, the PCM needs large amounts of energy (heat from the atmosphere) to melt. As it melts, it consumes heat while maintaining a near-constant temperature. This keeps the building cool. When the local temperature falls back to the solidification point, the PCM will discharge heat, maintaining the temperature of the space until the PCM has fully solidified. In short, the PCMs incorporated into the building envelope absorb the higher exterior temperature during the day and dissipate that heat to the interior at night when it is cooler.
The U.S. Department of Energy tested an attic insulation consisting of perlite (a carrier) embedded with a PCM consisting of hydrated calcium chloride. That PCM changes phases from solid to liquid at 82°F. As it melts, it absorbs heat from the hot attic before the heat can penetrate into the home. When attic temperatures cool at night, the PCM solidifies and releases heat back into the attic, moderating the cooler outdoor temperatures.
Some day in the future, perlite infused with PCMs may reduce home heating or cooling loads, thereby producing energy savings for the consumer, a reduction in the need for new utility power plants, and, perhaps, yet an additional LFCR charge.

Knicks 106, Magic 94
Mike Woodson got the answer he was looking for just 22 seconds into the game.
That's how long it took Carmelo Anthony to show he was back, pulling up comfortably for a 3-pointer on New York's first possession.
''Big-time relief,'' the Knicks coach said. ''I mean, lets me know that Melo's being Melo.''
And the Knicks looked like the Knicks from earlier in the season, before Anthony's struggles halted their momentum.
Anthony scored 21 points after missing the previous three games with a knee injury, and the Knicks beat the Orlando Magic 106-94 on Wednesday night.
J.R. Smith had 22 points for New York, still short-handed in the frontcourt but looking much better with Anthony back. The NBA's second-leading scorer hadn't played since leaving the Knicks' road trip last week to have fluid drained from the back of his right knee. He said it felt better right after going to the hospital after he had been feeling discomfort for weeks.
''I feel good, I feel healthy,'' Anthony said. ''I'm glad I went and got that procedure done so I put that behind me now.''
He moved well and shot 7 of 14 while grabbing eight rebounds as the Knicks closed in on a playoff spot they could wrap up this week.
''Any time you have a great scorer like that, it's going to be tough for you. Not one person in the league, in the world can guard him 1-on-1,'' Magic guard Jameer Nelson said. ''So you've got to do different things and try to get him out of his rhythm. I thought he did a great job by being patient and taking shots when he wanted to or needed to, and passing it when the double-team came.''
The Knicks shot 53 percent and won their second straight after dropping the first four games of their five-game trip. All-Star center Tyson Chandler is expected to miss about a week with a bulging disk, and reserve forwards Amare Stoudemire, Rasheed Wallace and Kurt Thomas all could miss the rest of the regular season. But New York had no trouble despite using a small lineup that featured 6-foot-9 Kenyon Martin as the center.
Iman Shumpert, who joined Anthony, Martin, Raymond Felton and Pablo Prigioni in the lineup, sat out after hurting his knee late in the first half. He said he was scared after hearing a pop, having torn up his knee last spring, but trainers told him it was likely scar tissue. He sat on the bench in uniform and Woodson said he could have returned, but kept him out as the Knicks blew it open.
Tobias Harris and Andrew Nicholson each scored 14 points for the Magic in their fifth straight loss. They played without center Nikola Vucevic because of an illness in the second night of a difficult back-to-back, after falling by 22 at Indiana on Tuesday.
New York beat Orlando for the sixth straight time and swept the season series for the first time since 1997-98.
Anthony said he was feeling pain just before the All-Star break, more than a month ago. The knee became worse when the Knicks had games on back-to-back nights against Miami and Cleveland on March 3-4, and he fell to the court without contact while trying to catch a pass in the second game.
He missed the next three games, then came back. But he was clearly limited in losses at Golden State and Denver, totaling just 23 points, and he finally realized the knee needed more than just rest.
''I was worried because I didn't really know what was the cause of it, what was going on,'' he said. ''I knew for sure that it wasn't no ligament damage or anything like that, so I just wish that I could have gotten to the bottom of it quicker or we could've got to the bottom of it quicker.''
He had rejoined the team on the West Coast following the procedure but didn't want to rush back, and determined he was ready Wednesday after feeling good over the last couple of days.
New York built a 22-7 lead after consecutive 3-pointers by Smith and Chris Copeland capped a 10-0 run. They led 26-15 after one, but Orlando got untracked with a 31-point second quarter, cutting it to 51-46 at the half.
The Knicks put it away midway through the third, getting two free throws and a follow shot by Anthony to start a 10-2 burst that extended a 10-point lead to 78-60.
''I think they're the hardest team to defend in the NBA. With Melo and his ability to score and play the 4 and then with four shooters all around him, it's hard to help out and get back. You saw tonight they made a lot of 3s,'' Harris said. ''They're definitely a tough match-up team and that's what makes them so good.''
NOTES: Woodson said he didn't expect the Knicks to make any moves to fortify the frontcourt because Wallace and Thomas could be back around the start of the playoffs. And he said he still ''absolutely'' believes in the Knicks' decision to load up on older players over the summer, believing the injuries happened because the veterans played more minutes than expected because of injuries to other players. ... Thomas said he'd had a stress fracture in his foot in 2006 while playing for Phoenix and had learned recently it didn't completely heal. ... The Knicks wished director and leading fan Spike Lee a happy birthday between the first and second quarters. ... Magic coach Jacque Vaughn was ejected from Tuesday's game and said he didn't want to discuss his feelings about Indiana's physical play for fear of losing more money, smiling that his wife was mad about the fines that come with the two technical fouls he received during the loss to the Pacers.

Aastrom Biosciences Appoints Daniel R. Orlando As Chief Commercial Officer
ANN ARBOR, Mich., Sept. 5, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aastrom Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq:ASTM), the leading developer of patient-specific, expanded multicellular therapies for the treatment of severe, chronic cardiovascular diseases, today announced the appointment of Daniel (Dan) R. Orlando as chief commercial officer, a newly created position at Aastrom.
Most recently, Dan was with Takeda Pharmaceuticals for over 13 years in executive leadership positions in marketing, sales and business development, most recently as vice president, business development for North and South America. Previously, he was with Abbott Laboratories for more than 11 years in progressive sales and marketing roles. During his career, he has helped to establish dozens of pharmaceutical brands including, most significantly, Actos ®. Under Dan's leadership, Actos ® became the top brand in diabetes. Dan holds an M.B.A. in management from Florida Atlantic University and a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Florida.
"Aastrom's experienced team, compelling Phase 2b clinical results and Phase 3 status, combined with overall leadership in the development of cellular therapies, attracted me to the company," said Dan.
"Dan has proven success in product and business development in the metabolic field and his experience will positively support the next stage of development for ixmyelocel-T. We are very pleased to have Dan on board as we work to position ixmyelocel-T for FDA review, approval and commercialization," said Tim Mayleben, Aastrom's president and chief executive officer. About Aastrom Biosciences Aastrom Biosciences is the leader in developing patient-specific, expanded multicellular therapies for use in the treatment of patients with severe, chronic cardiovascular diseases. The company's proprietary cell-processing technology enables the manufacture of ixmyelocel-T, a patient-specific multicellular therapy expanded from a patient's own bone marrow and delivered directly to damaged tissues. Aastrom has advanced ixmyelocel-T into late-stage clinical development, including a Phase 3 clinical program to study patients with critical limb ischemia and a planned Phase 2b clinical trial in patients with ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy. For more information, please visit Aastrom's website at www.aastrom.com . For more information on the pivotal REVIVE Phase 3 clinical trial, please visit the trial website at www.revivecli.com .

TP-LINK's 8-Port 10/100Mbps Desktop Switch With 4-Port PoE The 8-Port 10/100Mbps Desktop Switch with 4-Port PoE provides a seamless network connection. It integrates 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and 10Mbps Ethernet network capabilities. How This Product Works Four of the eight Auto-Negotiation RJ45 ports (port-1 to port-4) of the switch support Power over Ethernet (PoE) function. These PoE ports can automatically detect and supply power with those IEEE 802.3af compliant Powered Devices (PDs). In this situation, the electrical power is transmitted along with data in one single cable allowing you to expand your network where there are no power lines or outlets, where you wish to fix devices such as APs, IP Cameras or IP Phones, etc. Overload Arrangement TL-SF1008P has the priority function, which will help protect the system when the system power is overloaded. If all PoE PDs power consumption is greater than or equal to 53W, a priority will be arranged among the PoE ports, then the system will cut off the power of the lowest-priority port. Port Priority Function Priority (port-1>port-2>port-3>port-4): This function will help protect the system if the system power becomes overloaded. For example, Port 1, 2, and 4 are using 15.4w (maximum power per port is 15.4W), the system power is 46.2w in total (PoE max LED is red). If there is an additional PD inserted to Port 3 with 10w then the system will cut off Port 4 to protect the system; this means that Port 1 and 2 will use 15.4w, Port3 will use 10w, and no power will be supplied to Port 4. Easy To Use TL-SF1008P is easy to install and use. It requires no configuration and installation. With desktop design, outstanding performance, and quality, the TP-LINK TL-SF1008P8-Port 10/100Mbps Desktop Switch with 4-Port PoE is a great choice for expanding your home or office network.

11 Feb 2013
THE FINANCIAL REPORTING COUNCIL is undertaking an investigation into software firm Autonomy over its accounts for the period between January 2009 and June 2011.
Autonomy was acquired by Hewlett Packard (HP) in an $11bn (£6.87bn) deal in August 2011, but just 15 months later it was forced to write down £5.5bn in impairment costs, the majority of which it claimed was caused by "serious accounting improprieties, misrepresentation and disclosure failures" to misrepresent the business.
Further reading
The alleged misrepresentations, discovered by PwC during a forensic review of Autonomy's accounting practices, were said to have been flagged up a by a "senior member of Autonomy's leadership team", who said there were "questionable accounting practices" at the UK business prior to its acquisition.
HP chief executive Meg Whitman told analysts on the day of the write-down announcement that HP had relied heavily on the financial data audited by Deloitte, and brought in KPMG to essentially audit Deloitte's work in a due diligence exercise.
Subsequently, lawsuits have been filed by investors, one alleging that Deloitte and KPMG missed numerous red flags - something both firms denied at the time - while the other suggested HP knew of misleading statements in the acquisition.
Following the acquisition, Citi analysts criticised the way financial reporting is policed by the FRC, branding it "toothless" and called for greater transparency.

In this white paper CCH provide checklists to help accountants and finance professionals both in practice and in business examine these issues and make plans. Also includes a case study of a large commercial organisation working through the first year of mandatory iXBRL filing.

We reached at 7am,but were immediately accommodated although the check in time was 3pm.All I had to do was leave a mail in advance intimating them about our international flight arrival.
The location is a 2min subway journey from the center of Vienna. We really did not face any problem though since every nook n corner of the city is well connected.
Staff were fab !! Rooms comfortable and clean Bar had a lovely atmosphere !
The restaurant didn't have much choice for children or adults.
Very nice looking hotel. Breakfast is very good
Hotel was not heated. I checked 6 rooms at different level was same situation. Till morning in room was about 19 C. Same rooms are faceing the train line, are very, very noise.
5-10 minute walk from the hotel to the Palace. 10-15 minute walk to the train station that takes you into the city center. Rooms were nice and beds comfortable. Free wifi worked very well.
Not much in the vicinity for food options so guests might have to stick to eating a meal at the hotel.
Cleanliness, design, bed and bathroom
It was cheap to put some coffee and tea stuff ONLY in the executive room (the hotel is a 4 star...)
I requested a king size bed, the hotel gave me 2 twin beds sticked together and the matresses keeped sliding apart.
Breakfast buffet was excellent with lots to choose from. The executive lounge was perfect for a snack before heading out. The mini bar was included in our room rate and was restocked daily. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect. It was easy to get to public transportation from here. The bar was warm and inviting.
Clean spacious very good design and layout
Really, two single beds to make up a double. When I asked the receptionist. She said it was Austria Trend Hotel policy. Will think before staying again
clean, comfortable room and very helpful staff
a little far from the center of the city (you have to take tram and metro in order to get at the center), no restaurants or fast foods near to the hotel
Location, room, breakfast
These are just minor ones: breakfast chief waiter - was sitting us according to some very strict rules, room was close to the rail-tracks, some of the toiletries where not replenished as they should be.
I liked everything, from the free parking in front if the hotel to the variated breakfast. You can walk to Schonbrunn and arrive in 10 minutes, or you can drive to Stefan platz and arrive also in 10 minutes. The room is big, with a big bathroom.
The fonic isolation should be better for the rooms which have a view to the boulevard.
Wifi was working well on our2nd visit, quiet hotel rightnext to the tech museum, good staff,schonbrunn xmas market 5 min salk
Have to take a tram and metro to get to the city center, it adds up, expensive breakfast (19 €???), no restaurants or cafes around,
Honestly, we liked absolutely everything, really clean, quiet, modern hotel
Poor wi-fi, we really need it in 21st century
Overall comfort - the hotel is new and clean.
Room service - one day we left down on the floor one small towel for change but we did not receive another one back.
furniture was ok spacious rooms
the room was very cold and it worsened during the night hairs on our towels no toilette washing in 7 days and no change of sheets so ecologically-minded that for two days they have left us even without hand-soap no complementary cosmetic products very expensive breakfast we were promised a room with a resting area and that area consisted only of a armchair I asked for matrimonial bed and got twin beds with no cover to level them up: very uncomfortable!
The hotel is well located for visiting the Schoenbrun Palace which is why we chose it. Dinner at the hotel was very nice. The sauna and health spa facilities are good.
There are not many other places to visit near by at the hotel is located a long way from the downtown area. It is more a business hotel and the hallways are very cold and modern.
Executive Level privileges are very nice and well worth the extra cost. Nice to come back to late afternoon after a day of sight-seeing.
A little bit of a walk from the subway. Ask staff to advise how to use the closer tram to get started on your way back towards the inner city if the walk is too much.
It was very comfortable and clean! The hotel is located at about 400m from Schonbrunn Palace!
Too far from the city center! There was no concierge!
The hotel still feels quite new, very clean, great rooms, easily connected to central Wien via trams+metro.
Some members of the staff were really nice and helpful, while the others were rude and obnoxious. The bar guy charged us wrongly, the breakfast guy misled us, and the older reception guy had a truly terrible attitude. I don't mean to discourage others from staying at this hotel - it's more like a message to the management.
It was very clean and comfortable.
The breakfast was too expensive in comparison to room's price.
Good location. Front desk very friendly. Free parking avaliable
Cleaning stuff unfriendly. Shampoo etc was not ready at check in.

Easter Vigil Comet Queen
The moon is up, nice and bright this week. We also have a visitor from the outer reaches of the solar system, Comet Yi-SWAN, currently hanging out in the constellation Cassiopeia, the Queen. You'll need a good pair of binoculars … Continue reading

Snacking on the Word: Psalm 69:10a

Brew a strong pot o' joe. Without it, forgettable fucking could warrant a visit from the sandman. Mechanical oral-to-vage wears thin early on, with less than believable performances. Ashley Licks' pairing with a crowbar of a cock draws a second glance; her reverse cowgirl bull-riding will never make the rodeo circuit. Her scenemate's dick slips out constantly, challenging Licks to hang on for eight seconds. Send in the clowns!
Despite five average cream pies, spunk lovers wanting extra sausage gravy on their biscuits can skip ahead to the final scene. Don't forget your galoshes - Kitty bathes in so much gush, one starts to wonder if her victim could've managed to piss in her before he came. It's a question for the ages.
Retailing: Shelve with the series.

With the Colts currently 2-0 when head coach Chuck Pagano visits the team, they will look to upset the Patriots this weekend after he surprised them during practice today (Credit: AP Photo)
This Sunday, the 6-3, rookie led Indianapolis Colts will face the 6-3 New England Patriots. If the Colts can somehow beat the Patriots, they will be in the driver's seat for a playoff spot and considered by some to be a legit playoff team.
With the team focused on this Sunday's big game, they were surprised with a visit by their head coach Chuck Pagano.
Pagano has been away from the team since week four when he was diagnosed with leukemia.
"It was a beautiful moment," interim coach Bruce Arians said. "He came and enjoyed a good bunch of sunshine and talked to the guys and it was another beautiful day."
"It caught everybody by surprise," receiver Reggie Wayne said. "That was a great finishing to a great day of practice. Like I said, whenever he is able to address the team, give us a little words of wisdom, it's always a great feeling."
"I've seen it so many times where a group of guys band together, and different slogans, 'Won't be denied,' this or that or whatever, they all come up with something, this is just, '1-2-3-Chuck,'" Arians said.
The first time Pagano visited the team, they beat the Green Bay Packers. The second time he delivered a speech and they went out and beat the Miami Dolphins.
Could the Patriots be in for an upset this weekend?

Keith Olbermann's Special Comment on Bill Clinton's interview with FoxOn Monday, Sept. 25 2006, Keith Olbermann commented on Bill Clinton's interview with Fox News, and called for an end to President Bush's "pass" for his incompetence and malfeasance relating to September 11. His words are a highlight for what many concerned American Citizens who have often been labeled unpatriotic, Anti-Bush, Anti-Republican, or Anti-American, have been saying for the last 5 years. Keith Olbermann, is a modern day Edward R. Murrow. A man of character and honor. A man who is not afraid to speak the truth both to those in power, and to a public often unwilling to listen themselves. MSNBC deserves our support and full credit for allowing Keith Olbermann to exercise his first amendment rights from their network, when so many other networks have just given up and surrendered. Here is Keith Olbermann's Commentary: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3592217964261572444 Here is the video that sparked Keith Olbermann's commentary: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=9026120716999978732 A full transcript can be found at Crooks and Liars.

Nikitova Games, who works on licensed games such as Casper Scare School, has announced two original projects for the DS and Wii. One is Mind Games, which is ... some training thing. But the other one, CCTV, sounds pretty neat!
The game seems to involve watching security footage and picking out perpetrators from a crowd, as well as X-raying luggage in an airport. The game's description hints at more tasks: "... this fast paced game of observation, identification & interrogation." Success gets you promoted from mall security up to "international head of security".
We're glad to see an original game idea, and we're always happy when a developer of licensed games moves on to something more ambitious -- even if it's a more ambitious licensed game. We're also thrilled to see a game based on watching security cameras, if only because it reminds us of Night Trap. Maybe with the security camera gimmick used for something other than delivering FMV, a good game can come from the idea!

Hasbro Named Among Ethisphere's 2013 "World's Most Ethical Companies" For Second Consecutive Year
Global branded play leader Hasbro, Inc. (NASDAQ: HAS), has been recognized as one of The Ethisphere Institute's "World's Most Ethical Companies" (WME) for the second year in a row. Ethisphere received a record number of nominations for the 2013 WME list. Companies included on the 2013 list have distinguished themselves by implementing and maintaining an "outstanding commitment to ethical leadership, compliance practices, and corporate social responsibility."
"At Hasbro, we reaffirm our commitment to conducting business responsibly each and every day through the decisions we make and the actions we take for our company, for our consumers and for our world," said Hasbro CEO Brian Goldner. "We are honored to be recognized as one of the world's most ethical companies, which serves a testament to our corporate values and the ethical leadership demonstrated by our employees around the world."
Most recently, Hasbro's commitment to responsible business practices can be seen through the company's ongoing efforts in sustainable packaging innovation. In 2012, Hasbro announced plans to reduce materials used in product packaging for many of its highly popular global brands and, beginning in 2013, Hasbro will phase out PVC in new toy and game product packaging. Over the next two years, retailers and consumers will begin to see an even broader range of packaging efficiencies put in place across Hasbro's brand portfolio, including redesigned disposable boxes and blister packs that use less material.
"Hasbro strives to set the bar for ethics and sustainability within our industry with a commitment to playing fair, making safe products, and making responsible choices across our business," said Kathrin Belliveau, Vice President, Corporate Responsibility.
This is the seventh year Ethisphere has published the WME rankings. Ethisphere reviewed companies in more than 100 countries and 36 industries and evaluated a record number of applications through in-depth research and multi-step analysis, naming the companies that surpassed their industry peers to this year's World's Most Ethical Companies list. The ranking methodology includes reviewing codes of ethics, litigation and regulatory infraction histories; evaluating the investment in innovation and sustainable business practices; looking at activities designed to improve corporate citizenship; and studying nominations from senior executives, industry peers, suppliers and customers.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

RICK SMITH: Rancher writes about local characters
SAN ANGELO, Texas - Texas is known for its "characters," like the late Hondo Crouch of Luckenbach fame and our own Jalapeño Sam Lewis, a legend in armadillo racing for much of his life.
Lately, I've worried that West Texas characters may be facing extinction. Where is the next generation of wild West Texans like Hackberry "Slim" Johnson and "Pecos" Pate Boone?
Skipper Duncan's latest book, "Tales Galore and a Whole Lot More," gives me new hope.
A character's character, Skipper is a West Texas rancher who has been hosting hunters on guided and outfitted hunts since the 1980s.
Sitting around a campfire, he's heard many stories from and about genuine characters.
He collected the best of the stories, his own and those told by others, in his new book.
In it he writes about men with names like Toad Tucker, a cowboy turned businessman who enjoys playing practical jokes.
The long cast of characters also includes well-known people we never suspected were characters.
Bob Hamblen, local anesthesiologist and practical joker, is a good example.
The doctor's practical jokes, especially the snake pranks he played on Sonny Cleere, are worth the price of the book. (I won't give the prank away, but I will say it included a dead snake and a lonnnnnng string.)
What's a character? The late Tommy Buckner, another character in the book, summed it up with his motto: "Act like you know what you are doing, then go ahead and do it."
He meant it, too.
"He once drove a friend's motor home all over the floor of the Astrodome in Houston," Skipper wrote. "No one had the presence of mind to stop him and inquire if he had a right to be there."
Now, that's a character.
My favorite story is the one about West Texans exterminating rattlesnakes with dynamite.
It's a long tale, so I can't post it all here, but I will tell you the moral of the story, as told by Skipper: Despite the hunters' best efforts, snakes on the ranch "were not going to be added to the endangered species list," Skipper wrote.
But the four snake exterminators almost were, he added.
"Tales Galore and a Whole Lot More," is on sale at Cactus Books, 6 E. Concho Ave. and Grogan's Feed Store, across from Sam's Club on U.S. 67 South.
update on Lee Ann Wisdom
Several months ago I wrote about Ruth Wisdom, a San Angelo nurse, and her injured daughter, Lee Ann.
Lee Ann was 13 years in 2003 when she suffered an almost fatal four-wheeler accident.
Since then, life has never been the same for mother and child.
Lee Ann had a long list of injuries, but the worst was a traumatic brain injury.
During the years since she has had countless medical procedures and operations. It's been a long, tough journey for the Wisdom women.
One of Lee Ann's hardest blows came recently when her long locks of hair were shaved off in preparation for brain surgery.
"She cried for three days," Ruth said, adding that Lee Ann is donating the hair to Locks for Love to be turned into hairpieces for children suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis.
Now, Lee Ann is back in Memorial Hermann Medical Center in Houston for another operation.
When I talked to Ruth on Thursday morning, she sounded optimistic. Ruth and Lee Ann have been at the Houston hospital a week and will be there at least through next Wednesday when another operation is scheduled.
"This child of mine has a constitution that astounds me," she wrote on Facebook. "She is truly blessed beyond measure! I'm honored to be her mother!"
And I'm honored to be a friend of Ruth and Lee Ann.
If you would like to send Lee Ann a get-well card or a donation for Ruth, whose funds have been strained by endless hospital stays, please contact them at:
