NEW YORK (AP) — A garment salesman accused of systematically shooting three shopkeepers to death as they worked alone in their clothing stores was held without bail Thursday.
Salvatore Perrone, who was held after his initial Brooklyn court appearance on murder charges, denies killing anyone, his lawyer said.
Attorney Ken Jones, who represented Perrone only for the arraignment and hadn't spent much time with him, said his client shows no remorse and appears "as though he could have some mental-health issues."
Perrone, of Staten Island, will be assigned another lawyer when he returns to court on Tuesday, prosecutors said.
Perrone was taken into custody Wednesday in the suspected serial killings, which scores of detectives were investigating. A pharmacy worker recognized Perrone, 63, as the balding man shown in surveillance footage leaving the scene of the most recent shooting, on Nov. 16, with a duffel bag, police said.
Another shopkeeper came forward and said Perrone had gone into his store and questioned him about whether he worked alone and when he closed, police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.
"It's reasonable to assume he was going to keep doing this, and, by arresting him, we saved lives," Kelly said.
Detectives said they found the duffel bag at Perrone's girlfriend's home. Inside, they said, was a sawed-off rifle used in the killings, along with .22-caliber ammunition, black gloves, women's clothing, a bloody knife and a bottle of bleach.
Perrone's fingerprint was lifted from the murder weapon, Kelly said.
Initially, authorities thought the killer might have targeted the Brooklyn shopkeepers, who were from Iran and Egypt, because of their Middle Eastern backgrounds. But on Wednesday, Kelly said there was no motive he could speak of.
In the most recent killing, Rahmatollah Vahidipour, an Iranian, was shot three times in the head and chest at the She She Boutique.
After that killing, detectives discovered the same gun was used in the fatal shootings of two other shopkeepers when ballistics matched the .22-caliber gun shell casings on all three. On July 6, Mohamed Gebeli, an Egyptian, was found shot at Valentino Fashion Inc. On Aug. 6, Isaac Kadare, also Egyptian, was shot in the head at Amazing 99 Cent Deal.
There were other similarities in the deaths, authorities said: The bodies were all partially obscured, by clothing or, in one case, a box. The locations of the shops form an equilateral triangle and are about 4 miles apart, with addresses that contain the number eight.
Police earlier this week said they were looking to speak to four people who possibly witnessed the most recent killing and released video and clear images of the four. But they zeroed in on the man with the bag, who they now say was Perrone.
Police said they believe Perrone carried the murder weapon in the bag and traveled by subway.
Perrone, a Brooklyn native, is divorced and lives with his girlfriend. He went store to store trying to sell clothing, police said, but it was unclear if he had tried to sell to any of the victims.

HoopsHype Euroleague rumors
Jorge Sierra: Ryan Gomes can opt out of his contract with Baskonia and sign with other Euro clubs after Euroleague first round, source tells HoopsHype. Twitter @hoopshype
Marc Stein: ESPN sources say Gustavo Ayon certainly prefers to play in NBA next season but at this point his offers from Europe have simply been richer Twitter @ESPNSteinLine
Is it something that you've considered, signing with a European team? HH: Yeah, it's one of my options, signing with a club in Europe. A good club. So a Euroleague team would be the only option, right? HH: Yeah. HoopsHype
Nick Calathes gave an interview at Το Βήμα της Κυριακής (newspaper) and he said about the NBA. (...) Rumors during the summer. "It was a lot stressful everything that happened this summer. I didn't know where I was going to play next season. There was a lot of confusion, while my primary agent, the one who got the deal, got a job at the Memphis Grizzlies as a GM and then he got fired, so I didn't know if I had a second year. At the same time, my agent was talking with European teams, but at the end the Grizzlies decided to keep me. So I am going back and I will do my best to find a better contract, next season. If I don't make it, I'll go back to Europe Sportando
LeBron never really played the 4 [power forward] in Cleveland, but he played it a ton in Miami. Will you use him in that role, with just one traditional big man on the floor? I just came from the land of the stretch 4s. Stretch 4s became popular in the United States because of Europe. If anyone knows that style of play, it's probably me. Yeah, you'll see LeBron there. You'll see LeBron all over the floor, just like he's used to playing. I don't have to change him. Grantland
I watched the press conference you held after you guys won the Euroleague this year. You said something that surprised me: that the team you beat in the final game, Real Madrid, would have beaten you in a longer series. Do you think NBA playoff series should be shorter, so that there would be more upsets? No. I think the seven-game series is great. I love the history of it. I love the tradition of it. [John] Havlicek stole the ball in the seventh game, man! He didn't even steal it, either. He deflected it. And Johnny Most goes crazy: "Havlicek stole the ball! Havlicek stole the ball!" But that's the beauty of it. It's a moment that's frozen in time, and it can't be in the fifth game. It has to be in the seventh game. Now, in Europe, the final four is how you determine the Euroleague champion. And that's fine. And what I said was true. The teams we beat in the final four were much stronger than us on paper. If we had to play them in a seven-game series, I don't believe we would have won. Grantland
Lucas Nogueira has made the decision to leave Spanish club Estudiantes this summer and either sign with the Atlanta Hawks or with a Euroleague team. Encestando
Nogueira's NBA buyout is now at $600,000 while last year was $1 million. Encestando
Euroleague Basketball is pleased to announce that Sergio Rodriguez has been voted the bwin MVP for the 2013-14 season. Rodriguez received his MVP trophy Thursday at the EFES Euroleague Awards Ceremony at Piazza del Duomo, where he was honored alongside his fellow members of the 2013-14 All-Euroleague First Team. The ceremony was one of the first official acts of the Turkish Airlines Euroleague Final Four in Milan. Rodriguez was chosen league MVP in voting conducted among fans and journalists from across Europe and beyond. Euroleague.net
Victor Claver: I don't know if there's the chance of a trade. If it happened, I hope it is for the better. Returning to Europe? I'm not thinking about it right now. ElMundo.es
Blazers forward Victor Claver is seriously thinking about returning to Europe as soon as possible, TuBasket.com has learned. He's not comfortable with his situation and thinks Portland doesn't believe in him. TuBasket.com
Marc Mundet: Pete Mickeal's agent on RAC1: "Pete Mickeal already knows Barça's opinion. He respects them and he is free to sign with whom he considers. He'll continue playing. He gave priority 2 Barça, but now, he's same possibilities with Madrid, than NBA or EL team". Twitter @MarcMundet78
Eddie Johnson: Congrats to the Big Red (Olympiacos basketball club on its 2nd straight championship. I am so proud to be a part of your success. Twitter @Jumpshot8
George Karl: Yes, you could say that I have very beautiful memories with Real Madrid. Actually, I can tell you that I have talked with some people about the possibility of coaching again in Europe. Me and my son have also talked about a goal we want to achieve: To coach together one day. And Europe would be a great chance for us to do it. Marca.com
Besides the independent judge's decision, Euroleague Basketball has decided to ban for life the access or participation of the aggressors, the brothers Nauris and Normunds Macius, in any event directly organized by the company, including Turkish Airlines Euroleague and Eurocup games. Euroleague Basketball will work together with international basketball stakeholders to study a system for communicating and enforcing bans in other competitions. In parallel, it will recommend that the aggressors are banned from all basketball events, including club and national-team games. Euroleague.net

+ - OSS vs. Shareware in a Small Internet Community
Submitted by yotto
yotto writes "I am a nonvocal member of a fairly insular internet community. I have written an XSLT file to process an XML file that this community uses, to turn that XML into a set of web pages. My process is functional but not pretty, and I'm considering submitting the project to Sourceforge and announcing it on my community's message board to get help and make the project better. However, not only does the community already have a piece of software that does exactly what my XSLT file does, but that software is shareware and the author is an active and well-liked member of that community. He's also a nice guy and though I don't know him personally I have no problems with him. Has anybody ever attempted to introduce an OSS project into a community that already likes their closed-source, shareware solution? Was there a backlash and much hatred, or did everything work out? Or did your project fizzle because nobody helped?"

Transplant coordinators oversee all aspects of transplant surgeries and monitor their patients' health both in and out of the operating room. These coordinators are employed primarily by hospitals and other medical facilities and generally work traditional business hours; however, as health care is a 24-7 field, many may work longer hours or be on-call as surgeons are.Read More...
Candidates for the position should have a wealth of formal education and professional experience. An associate's or bachelor's degree in nursing with specialized courses in medical-surgical nursing is a common requirement, and licensing exams and board exams (RN and NCLEX-RN, respectively) must be passed upon graduation for internships or residencies to begin. Transplant coordinators must have extensive experience in the surgery room, critical care, or intensive care (or a combination of the three) and must obtain certification in transplant coordination. Ongoing education courses are also required, as the medical field is constantly growing and changing.
Transplant coordinators have a variety of responsibilities, including: communicating with patients and the surgical team; ensuring the accuracy of comprehensive documents; analyzing data regarding organ donors and transplant recipients; scheduling various tests for donors and recipients; and coordinating other services within the hospital. Excellent bedside manner and a professional attitude are of the utmost importance in this position.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience and pay tend to be weakly linked for Transplant Coordinators — those with more experience do not necessarily bring in higher earnings. Salaries for the relatively untried average out to around $66K, but survey participants with five to 10 years of experience earn a significantly higher median of $75K. People with 10 to 20 years of experience make an average of about $83K in this role. Folks who have racked up more than 20 years in the field report incomes that aren't that much higher than less experienced individuals' earnings; the veterans make just $87K on average.

Astigmatism What causes astigmatism? Astigmatism FAQs Playlist: Play all Astigmatism videos Astigmatism: Description Astigmatism: Cause What causes astigmatism? How is astigmatism diagnosed? How is astigmatism treated? Astigmatism is a vision condition that causes blurred vision due either to the irregular shape of the cornea, the clear front cover of the eye, or sometimes the curvature of the lens inside the eye. An irregular shaped cornea or lens prevents light from focusing properly on the retina, the light sensitive surface at the back of the eye. As a result, vision becomes blurred at any distance. Astigmatism is a very common vision condition. Most people have some degree of astigmatism. Slight amounts of astigmatism usually don't affect vision and don't require treatment. However, larger amounts cause distorted or blurred vision, eye discomfort and headaches. Astigmatism frequently occurs with other vision conditions like nearsightedness (myopia) and farsightedness (hyperopia). Together these vision conditions are referred to as refractive errors because they affect how the eyes bend or "refract" light. The specific cause of astigmatism is unknown. It can be hereditary and is usually present from birth. It can change as a child grows and may decrease or worsen over time. A comprehensive optometric examination will include testing for astigmatism. Depending on the amount present, your optometrist can provide spectacles or contact lenses that correct the astigmatism by altering the way light enters your eyes. What causes astigmatism? When the cornea or lens of an eye is irregularly shaped, vision may be out of focus at any distance. . Astigmatism occurs due to the irregular shape of the cornea or the lens inside the eye. The cornea and lens are primarily responsible for properly focusing light entering your eyes allowing you to see things clearly. The curvature of the cornea and lens causes light entering the eye to be bent in order to focus it precisely on the retina at the back of the eye. In astigmatism, the surface of the cornea or lens has a somewhat different curvature in one direction than another. In the case of the cornea, instead of having a round shape like asoccerball, the surface of the cornea is more like a rugbyball. As a result, the eye is unable to focus light rays to a single point causing vision to be out of focus at any distance. Sometimes astigmatism may develop following an eye injury or eye surgery. There is also a relatively rare condition called keratoconus where the cornea becomes progressively thinner and cone shaped. This results in a large amount of astigmatism resulting in poor vision that cannot be clearly corrected with spectacles. Keratoconus usually requires contact lenses for clear vision, and it may eventually progress to a point where a corneal transplant is necessary. [back to top] How is astigmatism diagnosed? A phoropter and a retinoscope are instruments commonly used by optometrists to measure refraction. Astigmatism can be diagnosed through a comprehensive eye examination. Testing for astigmatism measures how the eyes focus light and determines the power of any optical lenses needed to compensate for reduced vision. This examination may include: Visual acuity - As part of the testing, you'll be asked to read letters on a distance chart. This test measures visual acuity, which is written as a fraction such as 6/12. The top number is the standard distance at which testing is done, six metres. The bottom number is the smallest letter size you were able to read. A person with 6/12 visual acuity would have to get within 6 metres of a letter that should be seen at 12 metres in order to see it clearly. Normal distance visual acuity is 6/6. Keratometry - A keratometer is the primary instrument used to measure the curvature of the cornea. By focusing a circle of light on the cornea and measuring its reflection, it is possible to determine the exact curvature of the cornea's surface. This measurement is particularly critical in determining the proper fit for contact lenses. A more sophisticated procedure called corneal topography may be performed in some cases to provide even more detail of the shape of the cornea. Refraction - Using an instrument called a phoropter, your optometrist places a series of lenses in front of your eyes and measures how they focus light. This is performed using a hand held lighted instrument called a retinoscope or an automated instrument that automatically evaluates the focusing power of the eye. The power is then refined by patient's responses to determine the lenses that allow the clearest vision. Using the information obtained from these tests, your optometrist can determine if you have astigmatism. These findings, combined with those of other tests performed, will allow the optometrist to determine the power of any lens correction needed to provide clear, comfortable vision, and discuss options for treatment. [back to top] How is astigmatism treated? Persons with astigmatism have several options available to regain clear vision. They include: spectacles contact lenses orthokeratology laser and other refractive surgery procedures Spectacles are a common form of correction for persons with astigmatism. Spectacles are the primary choice of correction for persons with astigmatism. They will contain a special cylindrical lens prescription to compensate for the astigmatism. This provides for additional lens power in only specific meridians of the lens. An example of a prescription for astigmatism for one eye would be -1.00 -1.25 X 180. The middle number (- 1.25) is the lens power for correction of the astigmatism. The "X 180" designates the placement (axis) of the lens power. The first number (-1.00) indicates that this prescription also includes a correction for nearsightedness in addition to astigmatism. Generally, a single vision lens is prescribed to provide clear vision at all distances. However, for patients over about age 40 who have the condition called presbyopia, a bifocal or progressive addition lens may be needed. These provide different lens powers to see clearly in the distance and to focus effectively for near vision work. A wide variety of lens types and frame designs are now available for patients of all ages. Spectacles are no longer just a medical device that provides needed vision correction. Spectacle frames are available in a many shapes, sizes, colors and materials that not only allow for correction of vision, but also enhance appearance. For some individuals, contact lenses can offer better vision than eyeglasses. They may provide clearer vision and a wider field of view. However, since contact lenses are worn directly on the eyes, they require regular cleaning and care to safeguard eye health. Soft contact lenses conform to the shape of the eye, therefore standard soft lenses may not be effective in correcting astigmatism. However, special toric soft contact lenses are available to provide a correction for many types of astigmatism. Because rigid gas permeable contact lenses maintain their regular shape while on the cornea, they offer an effective way to compensate for the cornea's irregular shape and improve vision for persons with astigmatism and other refractive errors. Individuals with astigmatism have a wide range of options to correct their vision problem. In consultation with your optometrist, you can select the treatment that best meets your visual and lifestyle needs. Astigmatism FAQs Q. What is astigmatism? A. Astigmatism is a vision condition in which light entering the eye is unable to be brought to a single focus, resulting in vision being blurred at all distances. Astigmatism is not a disease, but rather, a vision condition that is quite common. It often occurs in conjunction with other refractive errors like nearsightedness and farsightedness. Q. Why does astigmatism occur? A. Typically, astigmatism is caused by the front of your eye (the cornea) being more oval than round, and not allowing light to focus properly on the back of your eye (retina). The causes of this irregular shape vary. In some cases, it may be hereditary or it may result from such factors as pressure of the eyelids on the cornea, incorrect posture or an increased use of the eyes for close work. Q. How common is astigmatism? A. Most people have some degree of astigmatism. However, only individuals with moderate to highly astigmatic eyes usually need corrective lenses. Q. What are signs/symptoms of astigmatism? Q. People with significant amounts of astigmatism will usually have blurred or distorted vision. Those with mild astigmatism may experience headaches, eye strain, fatigue or blurred vision at only certain distances. Q. How is astigmatism diagnosed? A. A comprehensive eye examination by your doctor of optometry will include testing for astigmatism. Q. How is astigmatism treated? A. Astigmatism can generally be optically corrected with properly prescribed and fitted eyeglasses or contact lenses. In recent years, a number of options to surgically alter the shape of the cornea, to correct low or moderate astigmatism, have been developed. These include procedures called radial keratotomy (RK) and photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). Your doctor of optometry can help you decide if these procedures are right for you. There is also a procedure called orthokeratology which uses a series of rigid contact lenses to provide improved vision for extended periods of time for people with astigmatism. Q. Does astigmatism get progressively worse? A. Astigmatism may change slowly. Regular optometric care can, however, help to ensure that proper vision is maintained. Q. How will astigmatism affect my lifestyle? A. You may have to adjust to wearing eyeglasses or contact lenses if you do not wear them now. Other than that, astigmatism probably will not significantly affect your lifestyle at all.

ESM - enterprise storage management
ESM is short for enterprise storage management.
Enterprise storage management, or ESM for short, is the phrase used to describe the tools, processes, and policies used to manage enterprise storage networks. ESM is used to help organizations meet regulations concerning data retention, privacy and record keeping and assists in managing storage networks and storage services, such as virtualization, replication, mirroring, security, compression, traffic analysis, process automation, storage provisioning and related techniques.
The phrase also encompasses other storage technologies, such as process automation, storage management and real-time infrastructure products, and storage provisioning. With the volume of data being produced and stored within organizations growing at a rapid rate, managing that data and the hardware that stores it can be a major headache.

Choosing Enterprise Storage Management Technologies
Enterprises need to choose storage management technologies that are designed specifically for utility services. This means carefully considering the solutions available and choosing the one that helps them deliver great service responsiveness while simultaneously cutting the TCO — or achieving more with less. The storage solution must be simple to manage, must improve storage capacity utilization and must be easy to scale. Mistakes that many organizations make is that they attempt to use traditional or legacy storage products as the foundation for a new utility storage environment, which can create major problems.

At MacFadyen Preschool Academy, we know that choosing the perfect daycare can be overwhelming and confusing. Children are precious, and the preschool that you choose must be the perfect spot to help your child grow while still providing loving care.
With that in mind, we have prepared a checklist for what to look for when you are making that important decision to put your child into a childcare program. With open communication and information, you will not feel any more pressure than necessary to find that perfect space!
Where to start when finding childcare
Before ever setting up childcare facility tours, MacFadyen Preschool Academy suggests doing extensive research. We don't suggest choosing a childcare facility over the phone alone. Look at their websites, check out their program options, and look at their rates, if applicable – then rank your top choices by desirability.
How desirable a childcare facility is should depend on a few things:
• Do they have space for your child? Is there a waiting list?
• How well did they do on licensing? What is their score? Is the facility willing to talk to you about this or discuss with you?
• What is their curriculum like? A good childcare curriculum meets the developmental needs of a given age group and incorporates a variety of things to do and learn.
• Is the staff and administration focused on finding the best materials and education resources to foster your child's development?
• How much are their rates?
Once you have determined these preliminary questions, it's time to arrange preschool tours.
What to look for on a preschool tour
When you tour a childcare facility, you should be looking for a variety of factors to determine if it is the best fit for your child. Don't hesitate to ask as many questions as it takes to help you make your decision. How friendly and open the childcare staff are should help you determine if the preschool will be best for your child.
Look for these things on your childcare facility tour:
• Do the children seem happy and healthy? Are the staff attentive and involved with the children?
• Does the facility use an environmental rating scale? This ensures that the program is set up to encompass all the developmental domains and there is plenty of opportunity to explore and make choices to enhance learning.
• How do they deal with upset children or discipline?
• What is the facility's caregiving style? Does it mesh with what you want for your child?
• What is the average school day like?
Determining these factors before you choose a preschool can help you achieve peace of mind for you, and for your child.

The LaRue County Hawks varsity baseball team played three games last week winning all three and improving its record to 12-7. They beat the Hart County Raiders 6-2, the Green County Dragons 2-1 in eight innings and the Marion County Knights 8-1.
Saturday's game against John Hardin was halted in the second inning because of rain with the score tied 6-6. There are no plans to reschedule the game.
Hart hammered
The Hawks defeated the Hart County Raiders for the second time in two weeks 6-2 April 19. The Hawks were led by a strong pitching performance by junior Slade Owens and the power hitting of Christian Mullins, who hit a solo home run. Owens (5-2) pitched seven strong innings giving up only three hits and two earned runs while striking out six. Besides Mullins' homer, Kyle Meredith had a double, a single and two RBIs; Kyle Sheeran doubled and tripled; and Matt Smith had a double to lead the Hawks offensively.
"Hart County was a good win for us," said Coach Chris Price. "Slade threw extremely well all seven innings. We were focused and didn't overlook Hart County. Several games this year have taught us to respect every opponent."
Green garroted
The Hawks continued their winning ways April 20 against the Green County Dragons with a 2-1 victory. With the score tied 0-0 in a tight pitchers' duel, Jesse Johnson hit a two run homer in the top of the eighth inning to secure the victory. The Dragons made it close in the bottom of the eighth to score one run but the Hawks held on to win the closely matched contest. Coach Chris Price was very pleased with the win.
"This victory was a big win for us," he said. "One mistake can determine the outcome in a game like that. Johnson's two run bomb in the eighth was tremendous. A great game between two pretty evenly matched teams."
Johnson pitched the entire game, giving up one earned run on six hits and striking out eight. The Hawks mustered four hits with Sheeran hitting a double and sophomore Steven Carpenter leading off the eighth with a single, scoring on Johnson's homer.
Marion mauled
Behind the pitching of Sheeran and two big offensive innings, the Hawks defeated the Marion County Knights April 23 in the first game of the LaRue County Invitational. "This was a very important game for us. Marion County is a good solid team and I felt that we would have to play well to win. The key to the game was that we made no errors. In games where we commit two errors or less, we are 10-2. Kyle Sheeran pitched a good ballgame, especially after the first couple of innings and Kyle Meredith continues to hit the ball extremely well," said Price.
The Hawks scored five runs in the third inning when Carpenter led off with a single, then Sheeran and Meredith loaded the bases on back-to-back bunt singles. Johnson drove in Carpenter and Sheeran with a single, then after Owens reached base with another single, Smith emptied the bases with a triple, driving in Meredith and Owens. The Hawks scored their fifth run of the inning when Cole Hughes laid down a perfect sacrifice squeeze bunt to bring in Smith.
The Hawks scored three more runs in the sixth inning when Cody Williams and Carpenter singled and Sheeran reached base on an error by the Marion County second baseman. Meredith then hit a line shot into deep left field over the left fielders' head to empty the bases, scoring all three runners.
It was a make-shift lineup for the Hawks as starters Jason Carlberg, Mullins, Dave Blair, Brandon Clemons and Lucas Chaudoin were all in New York on their senior trip. Their replacements fared well with Wes Kessinger playing exceptional defense at second base with four assists and a base hit while Cole Hughes played very well at third base as did Cody Williams in right field.
"We have some young players who may not play every day but are very capable of coming in and playing well. Wes Kessinger had some tough plays to make at second base and handled it well," said Price.
Sheeran pitched exceptionally well giving up one run and three hits in six innings, not allowing any hits or runs after the second inning. He was two for four at the plate scoring two runs. Meredith was two for four with three RBIs, scoring one run and Smith had two RBIs with his triple. Carpenter was two for three, scoring two runs.

Acorn too?
Good on them for firing the company.
The Republican National Committee has fired a controversial consulting firm it was paying millions of dollars to conduct voter registration in five battleground states, NBC News has learned.
The move came after the Palm Beach County, Fla., elections supervisor discovered 108 potentially fraudulent registration forms submitted by the GOP consulting firm, including suspected phony signatures and home addresses that matched those of a gas station, a medical building, and a Land Rover automotive dealership.
NBC News has learned that four other Florida counties have also reported hundreds of possible fraudulent registration forms submitted by the firm, including apparent dead people being registered as new voters.
Prosecutors in two counties are investigating possible voter fraud by the GOP consulting firm, officials said.
Like Acorn, any assurances that they've handled the situation are falling on deaf ears:
Late Thursday afternoon, Strategic Allied Consulting posted on its website a statement from its lawyer:
"Strategic has a zero tolerance policy for breaking the law. Accordingly, once we learned of the irregularities in Palm Beach County, we were able to trace all questionable cards to one individual and immediately terminated our working relationship with the individual in question. Strategic is committed to following the letter of the law and will continue to cooperate with the Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections to ensure that this issue is resolved."
Here is a link that might be useful: source
I don't really see it as double standard. When the issue was pointed out to the them, they fired them. However, sounds like the guy and his firm had had some issues in the past, so perhaps there should have been more caution in using him to start with.
But they did the right thing. It just goes to show that individual employees can ruin the reputation of a firm.
Only after the matter had been handed over to the State Attorney did they fire them (aren't they supposed to verify first?).
And, this wasn't the first incident either: GOP Voter Registration Firms Turn In Thousands Of Invalid Registration Forms:
According to a report today from Sacramento ABC affiliate News10 [see video posted below], a private, for-profit firm calling itself Momentum Political Services, hired by the local Republican Party "to boost GOP registration ranks in key battleground communities" has turned in more than 3,100 invalid voter registration cards during their recent drive.
[UPDATE 5/7/12: According to Sacramento Bee's 5/5/12 report, the number of bad registration forms is much higher than 3,100. The paper reports that since September, out of some 31,000 cards turned in by Momentum Political Services, "at least one-fourth of them have been thrown out because of inaccuracies," according to the Sacramento Registrar of Voters. That puts the questionable registrations from the GOP's company at more than 7,500.]
The charges of serial voter registration fraud sound very similar to those leveled in 2008 against another outfit hired by the California State GOP to register Republican voters before that year's Presidential election. In that case, the head of the firm was arrested, and eventually pleaded guilty to voter registration charges himself.
In 2006, another firm hired by the CA Republican Party turned in thousands of registration forms with fake names and an error rate as high as 60 percent. And in 2004, a firm hired by the GOP was investigated in a number of states for shredding Democratic voter registrations and tossing them into dumpsters. Despite those allegations, the same folks were later hired by the McCain/Palin campaign in 2008 to run voter registration drives before the Presidential election.
Those are (just?) the ones that were caught.
I don't really see it as double standard. When the issue was pointed out to the them, they fired them
I know you want to be fair and balanced but......The firm was under investigation for voter fraud and you give them 2 million to do voter registrations. This sounds to me like "You knew I was a snake when you took me in".
Read the attached of how NOT innocent they were. They tried got caught now they want to claim they are taking the high road. Yeah right.
Here is a link that might be useful: Nathan Sproul,
I seem to remember that Acorn took immediate action and corrected the questionable forms submitted and fired the perpetrator(s). Didn't matter. The Conservatives howled out their accusations anyway. Just proved that Acorn was a threat to the entire system of American Democracy and would bring it tumbling down on our heads.
Yeah, earth-shaking when a minor amount happens on the Dem. side. No big deal when the Repubs. are guilty of it in large numbers and over and over again. Yeah, no double standard there!
I do understand now why conservatives/Repubs are so concerned about all the fraud and corruption out there.
in 2004, a firm hired by the GOP was investigated in a number of states for shredding Democratic voter registrations
In 2006, another firm hired by the CA Republican Party turned in thousands of registration forms with fake names and an error rate as high as 60 percent.
In 2008... the head of the firm [hired by Repubs.] was arrested, and eventually pleaded guilty to voter registration charges himself.
In 2012...the questionable registrations from the GOP's company at more than 7,500
They just failed to tell us that it was REPUBLICAN FRAUD AND CORRUPTION, not Dem. misbehavior, that they were concerned about.
But then, trying to find Republican Fraud and corruption in Acorn (and failing to find any there) was the wrong place to look, wasn't it. It was all in their own voter registration firms!
It's far worse.
In all 234 counties of Texas, the entire states of Hawaii and Oklahoma, half of Washington and Colorado, and certain counties in swing state Ohio, votes will be cast on eSlate and ePollbook machines made by Hart Intercivic.
Hart Intercivic machines have famously failed in Tarrant County (Ft. Worth), adding 10,000 non-existant votes. The EVEREST study, commissioned by the Ohio secretary of state in 2007, found serious security flaws with Hart Intercivic products.
Looking beyond the well-documented Google choking laundry list of apparent fraud, failure and seeming corruption that is associated with Hart Intercivic, an ongoing Free Press investigation turned its attention to the key question of who owns the voting machine companies. The majority of the directors of Hart come from the private equity firm H.I.G. Capital. H.I.G. has been heavily invested in Hart Intercivic since July 2011, just in time for the current presidential election cycle. But who is H.I.G Capital?
Out of 49 partners and directors, 48 are men, and 47 are white. Eleven of these men, including H.I.G. Founder Tony Tamer, were formerly employed at Bain and Company, and two of those men, John P. Bolduc, Douglas Berman, are Romney bundlers along with former Bain and H.I.G. manager Brian Shortsleeve.
H.I.G. Capital employees have given $338,000 to Mitt Romney's campaign. That amounts to over $1500 per employee. Bain Capital, Mitt's former company, by comparison, only gave him $268,000. H.I.G. is the 11th largest donor to the Romney Campaign. Clearly they are working really hard for their man. It appears that they will work even harder on election night.
Although not boisterously promising to deliver states where their machines are to Romney as Wally O'Dell of Diebold did for Bush in 2004, they can launder hundreds of thousands of votes and swing the vote in the crucial swing state Ohio.
Scytl is an election counting company who will count 25% of all votes cast.
Privatized election counting? Are you folks kidding me?

Unfortunately, this is kid stuff... a quick trip to Radio Shack, about $16 in parts, and I know the technical savvy can add to or change the results of such electronic vote counters/machines.
However, when you own, or have a vested interest in the corporations that count your votes, it's pretty much in the bag...
Why aren't companies or their subsidiaries, owned or of interest to candidates, NOT eligible to provide these direct services of vote counting?
This should be of major interest, major concern, to Democrats and to the legal system at large.
Any connection to these electronic vote counting machines or the corporations that manufacture them, and their software, should be investigated prior to an election cycle, and not allowed to participate.
I'm of the opinion that we should go back to paper ballots. It's a lot harder to cheat that way.
They've made quite a damning case for voting fraud against the Republican party.
In all 234 counties of Texas, the entire states of Hawaii and Oklahoma, half of Washington and Colorado, and certain counties in swing state Ohio, votes will be cast on eSlate and ePollbook machines made by Hart Intercivic.
Votes only matter in Colorado and Ohio. Texas and Oklahoma will go for Romney. If Hawaii and Washington turn up for Romney then everyone will smell a rat.

We stayed for two nights in August at Saturna in the larger studio. The place has a fantastic artistic bent, and a very unique feel. It was well set up, and the spa was excellent. We loved the firebox and incredible warmth it gave out.
The only complaint we have is that things such as hand soaps, dishwashing liquid and a few 'replaceables' had all run out. I called the owner twice, left a …

Our experience staying at Texada was somewhat disappointing. The Property description states; Texada is nestled within an orchard of plum trees and, during the spring and summer, is enveloped in foilage'. What it doesn't say is that during winter, when the trees are bare, you have a commanding view of the neighbours weed-infested back yard.

In addition to maintaining the REEF Survey database and providing data files to scientists, government agencies, and other groups, REEF staff participate in a variety of scientific conferences and workshops each year. Earlier this month, REEF's Director of Science, Dr. Christy Pattengill-Semmens, participated in "Engaging and Learning for Conservation". Christy and 49 others were invited to the workshop to discuss ways to enhance biodiversity conservation and environmental stewardship through public participation in scientific research (PPSR). PPSR encompasses citizen science and other programs where the public is involved in one or more phases of scientific research. With support from the National Science Foundation, the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology, a leader in bird citizen science programs, initiated this effort to bring together conservation scientists and practitioners, resource managers, academics, educators, and community and project leaders. The overarching goal of the workshop was to discuss best practices to build the field of public participation in scientific research, and lay the groundwork for the workshop team to refine ideas into tools and resources. The two-day workshop was held at an epicenter of biodiversity and conservation research, the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. With almost 20 years of working with REEF, Christy had valuable perspectives on how a citizen science program can meaningfully contribute to conservation and stewardship.

REEF proudly names Heather George as our 2011 Volunteer of the Year. Since becoming a member nearly a decade ago, Heather has conducted 192 REEF surveys throughout the world and is a member of the Advanced Assessment Team in the Tropical Western Atlantic and Hawaii. In 2010, Heather joined the volunteer research team for the Grouper Moon Project. Through the years, she has conducted fish identification trainings for dive shops and aquaria and has led several REEF Field Survey Trips. Heather also served on the REEF Board of Trustees from 2007 to 2010 and brought a wealth of knowledge about fundraising and membership development to the organization. In 2011, Heather assisted with the expansion of the Volunteer Fish Survey Project to the South Pacific as part of the field team to American Samoa. When Heather is not underwater looking at fishes or teaching others about the joys of fish watching, she is helping other ocean-related organizations such as the Aquarium of the Pacific and the Waterkeeper Alliance. We are so grateful to have a wonderful volunteer who contributes to REEF in so many ways. Thank you, Heather!
REEF is proud to partner with over 270 dive shops, dive clubs, individuals, and other organizations as REEF Field Stations. For more information on how to find one near you, or to become a Field Station in your area, visit the Field Station Directory.
This month we feature Scuba Obsession, Al Audet's independent instruction business located in Melbourne Florida. Al was introduced to the wonderful world of fish identification through a class through OceanWatch.org. He attended as many classes as he could, and through the help of outstanding instructors and guides, he was hooked. He decided to incorporate fish ID into his teaching repertoire, and signed up as a REEF Field Station in November 2009.
Instructors have a lot of influence on their new open water students, and Al steers them toward fish ID all along the way. During the last Open Water dive, he normally takes his waterproof Fish-In-A-Pocket guide and points the fish they see on their dive out to the students. As his students move on to their Advanced Open Water courses (of which they can choose some that match their interests), he always encourages them to select Fish ID as one of their Adventure Dives. During the class, they learn about fish ID, do REEF survey dives together, and then are encouraged to join REEF and enter their data.
Al feels that the east coast of Florida is a great place to engage divers in fish ID. "The east coast of Florida has some of the best diving in the world. You never know what you're going to see. We also have the most popular muck dive in the world - the Blue Heron Bridge. You'll find fish under the bridge that you won't see any place else in Florida."
Al employs several different teaching techniques for his students. He offers Fish ID classes regularly and also attends REEF Fishinars, which he touted as one of REEF's best programs. He has also put together a video for his Fish ID students, online and available for viewing here: http://vimeo.com/11153948
One of Al's most exciting moments during a dive was when he was teaching a Fish ID Adventure dive for an Advanced Open Water class off Jupiter, FL. The boat captain gave them a sand drop, so after a few minutes of looking for the reef, the dive guide decided to ascend. On the way up... they looked up, and realized they were ascending into a whale shark! One of Al's students described it best, "I looked up, and I thought I saw the boat. Then I saw the fins." Thanks Al and Scuba Obsession for serving as a REEF Field Station!
Every month, scientists, government agencies, and other groups request raw data from REEF's Fish Survey Project database. Here is a sampling of who has asked for REEF data recently and what they are using it for:
- A researcher from University of British Columbia is using REEF data to evaluate the efficacy of marine reserves in Canadian waters.
- A researcher from Florida State University has requested REEF data to study Goliath Grouper populations in Florida.
- A student at Coastal Carolina University is using data to study fish populations at Discovery Bay in Jamaica.
- Scientists from NOAA Fisheries and Scripps Institution of Oceanography are using data from multiple monitoring programs, including REEF, to evaluate new methods of evaluating population trends in fisheries.

REEF Grouper Moon scientists co-authored a recent groundbreaking paper in the journal PLoS One that highlights the importance of regional conservation efforts aimed at spawning aggregations in the Caribbean. This study evaluated genetic connectedness between Nassau Grouper populations throughout the Caribbean using DNA markers. The authors obtained genetic tissue samples from 620 Nassau Grouper from 19 sites across 9 countries, including the Cayman Islands. They found evidence for strong genetic differentiation among Nassau Grouper subpopulations throughout the Caribbean. These results suggest that, despite a lack of physical barriers, Nassau Grouper form multiple distinct sub-populations in the Caribbean Sea. Oceanography (regional currents, eddies) likely plays an important role in retaining larvae close to spawning sites at both local and regional spatial scales. These findings highlight the importance of conservation initiatives such at REEF's Grouper Moon program in the Cayman Islands. A PDF of the paper is available online here. You can see a complete list of all scientific papers that have included data from REEF programs at www.REEF.org/db/publications.

REEF members are at the heart of our grassroots marine conservation programs. Over 50,000 divers, snorkelers, students, and armchair naturalists stand behind our mission.
This month we highlight Nick Brilliande. He has been a REEF member since 2011. An active surveyor who lives on Oahu, Hawaii, Nick has conducted 50 surveys to date and is a member of REEF's Advanced Assessment Team for the Hawaii region. Here's what he had to say about REEF:
How did you become involved with REEF?
The first time I heard about REEF was through a group called Reef Watch Waikiki. I attended some talks by REEF members Cassidy Lum and Jennifer Barrett describing what REEF does and how to survey fish. I answered a few questions and made some comments on fish, which impressed both Cassidy and Jen. Then came the time to try it out and I did. I had fun doing it, but it was also an excuse to look at fish, which I always find fascinating. After that, I became a member, went out to survey when I could, and slowly made my way up to an Expert Level 4/5 surveyor.
What inspires you to complete REEF surveys? What is the most interesting thing you learned doing a REEF fish survey?
I am always curious as to how the environment changes over time and how those changes affects the species that live there. The ocean is always different every day in some way or another; you never have the same type of conditions or species.
Do you have any surveying, fishwatching, or identification tips for REEF members?
When doing a fish survey, having an extra pair of eyes does help, but you want to be patient. The fish initially view you as a threat, but wait a little and eventually they will get used to you enough to come out and be able to see them. Let the animals make the first moves.
When learning fish for the first time, do not jump around families. The only thing that will accomplish is a huge headache. Take one family, learn the different species of fish one at a time, then quiz yourself to see if you actually know one species from another. Rinse and repeat. As long as you are out and about, you will never forget a fish's face. As mentioned, patience is key. Let them come out on their terms and let them make the first moves. One thing that seems to work for me is keeping my hands and arms to my side while snorkeling or diving - fish seem to view this as less threatening than flailing arms back and forth or having arms wide out.
What is your most memorable fish find and why? Is there a fish you would really like to see?
There are a few finds I remember. One was in Pokai Bay on O'ahu. Here, I witnessed a female Whitley's Boxfish picking at a turtle with a large tumor beside his mouth. This fish was picking at the tumor, but I still have no idea as to the purpose of this. At this same location on the same day I found my first lobster molt, a Slipper Lobster molt. Another encounter I still remember is in Kealakekua Bay on the Big Island of Hawaii. There were three notable encounters on the same day: two Longnose Butterflyfish, one of which was in a rare dark coloration alongside the other, which was in it's typical yellow coloration, a partial albino Yellow Tang in very shallow water, and a very sleepy Whitetip Reef Shark, which I was able to get very close to without disturbing him.
As far as animals I would like to see, that list would be almost half a page long. A few notable ones would include a Whale Shark, a Dragon Moray Eel, a Hawaiian Monk Seal underwater (I've seen them numerous times on beaches or them swimming around viewed from a boat or shore), and a Hawksbill Sea Turtle.
If you've read recent REEF releases, you've heard the news that Indo-pacific lionfish are now well established along the eastern US coast and throughout the Bahamas. REEF has been and continues to work with researchers to learn as much as we can in order to most effectively address the invasion. Since January of this year, REEF has organized and led 5 week-long projects in the Bahamas to document the extent of the invasion and gather samples and information needed by NOAA and Bahamian researchers.
Here is what we've found:
Here is what we are working on with NOAA and Bahamian researchers:
As part of this effort, REEF has planned more research efforts through the end of 2007. Each project will include participation of scientists, researchers, and/or REEF staff. For a list of upcoming projects visit http://www.reef.org/exotic/lionfish/ or e-mail email@example.com
Here's what we're up to in the coming months:

Recent additions to the previously planned Eco-week at Stuart Coves Dive Bahamas in Nassau will be highlighted by Ned and Anna DeLoach, who will be presenting their famous behavior talks as part of the week's activities. In addition, Andy Dehart, general Manager of the National Aquarium in Washington DC and Bruce Purdy, Bahamas dive operator and conservationist will talk about Bahamian conservation issues and marine protected areas. As previously planned, Lad Akins will lead the project and discuss lionfish issues as they relate to other environmental factors such as artificial reefs. Stuart Cove will host the project and discuss shark and local conservation issues.

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) February 19, 2013
In their recently published whitepaper Stopping Healthcare Waste at Its Source—Why it's time for a provider-focused waste solution Jvion examines the waste portion of healthcare fraud, waste, and abuse from the provider side of the equation. "When you look at all of the reforms and technological advancements that have been made to curb the $750 Billion waste problem, you see that providers are left at an increased risk of revenue losses," explained Surya Vadlamani, coauthor and Jvion CIO. "The very things that have been or are going to be put in place to reduce waste and improve patient care actually force providers to incur additional costs and put their revenues at risk."
The U.S. government and commercial payors have reacted to the waste problem by investing in prevention systems and passing reforms designed to reduce waste and improve patient care. Mandated technology changes including ICD-10 and the push toward electronic health records promise to increase visibility into possible waste and help target prevention efforts. And the adoption of emerging technologies including Big Data solutions by payors will extend current detection algorithms.
Within the paper, the authors assess the impact that government and payor reactions to waste will have on hospitals. "While the overarching aim of these efforts is to reduce administrative burden and waste within the healthcare system, the near-term impacts actually increase the cost of running a hospital and lower overall revenues. A new trend is emerging in the wake of this impact; one that focuses on addressing waste at the provider level while helping hospitals protect their revenues from the onslaught of mandated change and increased scrutiny."

Layering t's
mrsgymMarch 14, 2011
I need some suggestions. I recently lost 30 lbs, and I'm starting to wear form fitting clothes. I have tried the scoop neck tank under a scoop neck, long sleeved t. The problem I'm having is that the tank straps come all the way out, instead of part of the way just to show a little color. The long sleeved scoop neck t works it's way up to hide the tank. I'm always readjusting. Do most people wear a short sleeved scoop neck under the long sleeved, or a tank. I'm also a petite and it's difficult to find things the right length. Thanks for your suggestions.
