1999 Pontiac Grand Prix Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 69 reviews
Available as a sedan or coupe, the 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix is a roomy mid-sized car perfect for family trips, while its high-performance V6 engine and sporty handling have enough kick to keep the driving enthusiast plenty satisfied.
Sedans come in SE, GT, and GTP trims. Coupes come as a GT or GTP only. The SE features a 3.1-liter, 160-hp V6, while the GT and GTP come with a much more aggressive and faster 3.8 V6. In the GT, this hits 200-hp, a 5-hp increase from the previous year. The supercharged GTP achieves 240-hp. This engine is an option on the SE sedan. A 4-speed automatic is the only transmission, though it does come with normal and performance shift modes. Other new additions to the 1999 Grand Prix are a few more options, including heated seats and OnStar. The GT sedan and coupe get a standard rear spoiler to help create a sporty look to go along with its engine.
A wide track design and stiffer suspension mean better handling for the 1999 Grand Prix, and drivers notice this right away. They say it performs best on the highway, has great acceleration and engine power, and takes curves and corners easily and tightly for a mid-size car. It is also sturdy and good in bad weather. Other favorite features are the pass-through to the trunk, the heads-up display, and the increased roominess. Cheap-looking and easily broken plastic parts are annoying, as is a tendency to squeak and rattle. Drivers wish there was a manual transmission option. Problems with the power window regulators persist.

Leon Panetta
WASHINGTON -- The U.S. military did not quickly intervene during the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Libya last month because military leaders did not have adequate intelligence information and felt they should not put U.S. forces at risk, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said Thursday.
In his most extensive comments to date on the controversy surrounding the attack in Benghazi, Panetta said U.S. forces were on heightened alert because of the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and prepared to respond. But, he said, the attack happened over a few hours and was over before the U.S. had the chance to know what was happening.
The "basic principle is that you don't deploy forces into harm's way without knowing what's going on; without having some real-time information about what's taking place," Panetta told Pentagon reporters. "And as a result of not having that kind of information, the commander who was on the ground in that area, Gen. Ham, Gen. Dempsey and I felt very strongly that we could not put forces at risk in that situation."
Panetta was referring to Gen. Carter Ham, the head of U.S. Africa Command, and Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
In a letter to President Barack Obama on Thursday, House Speaker John Boehner, an Ohio Republican, questioned whether the White House considered military options during or immediately after the attack, and he questioned what the president knew about the security threats in the country. He said that the national debate over the incident shows that Americans are concerned and frustrated about the administration's response to the attack.
"Can you explain what options were presented to you or your staff, and why it appears assets were not allowed to be pre-positioned, let alone utilized? If these reports are accurate, the artificial constraint on the range of options at your disposal would be deeply troubling," Boehner wrote.
U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans were killed in the attack, which has become a heated campaign issue less than two weeks before the Nov. 6 presidential election.
House and Senate Republicans, as well as presidential candidate Mitt Romney, have criticized Obama and administration officials over the response to the attack and whether officials failed to provide enough security at the consulate.
During a news conference, Panetta lamented the "Monday morning quarterbacking" that has been going on about how the U.S. handled the attack.

Did you add a fireplace to your bedroom?
I am doing my bedroom in a tuscan style and wanted to add a fireplace. Is it a heap of trouble to add a gas fireplace(I have one in livingroom next door)? Suggestions? Thanks!
Just make sure you get something with direct vent technology, because it's the only one that does not have any effects on indoor air quality. The codes in many towns disallow gas fireplaces that are ventless in sleeping rooms because they are not safe -- there could be a build up of carbon monoxide. And the vented gas fireplaces are not energy efficient -- most of the heat just goes up the chimney. so direct vent is the way to go.
How complicated the installation will be depends on your particular situation -- room size, whether you use an interior or exterior wall, and probably other factors that can only be sorted by a technically qualified installer. Make sure you hire one with good credentials.

Mark Thompson will start at The New York Times in November. It's been without a chief since last December. The Times hired outside of the print world, hoping to increase its digital offerings and spark sales growth. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

The Rowing Team Posts A Strong Showing In Philadelphia
Oct. 28, 2012
PHILADELPHIA, Penn. - The Loyola University Maryland crew teams raced in six events with eight boats on Saturday, at the Head of the Schuylkill Regatta in Philadelphia, Penn.
The men's open fours took to the water first. The Loyola "B-lightweight" boat of cox Patrick Flynn, stroke Christopher Carpenter, Brendan Burke, Bryan Carney, and Michael Skopelitis finished 32nd with a time of 16:19. The "A" boat of coxswain Andrew Krygier, Craig Spicer, Paul Kalkbrenner, Juan Cadavid, and stroke Walter Horan finished 34th, only twelve seconds behind the "B" boat.
The Greyhounds also raced two women's open four boats, placing 29th and 30th respectively. The "A" boat's coxswain Lindsay Superczynski, stroke Kathleen Sweeney, Eleni Papadatos, Kelly Gregitis, and Kimberly Seckler recorded a time of 17:44. The "B" boat, comprised of cox Olivia Camusi, Shannon Connelly, Kathleen Varello, Anna Bellerive, and stroke seat Theresa Cornell, was right on their tails with a time of 17:50.
"The men's and women's four groups did a good job in a tough category," said Head Coach Al Ramirez. "Our crews were comprised of largely young athletes and new rowers, but it was good to see what they were capable of in somewhat sensitive boats."
The men's eight consisted of seven sophomores and one senior. Stroke Jordan Mastera and Joe Wawrzynski led the second year newcomers, Horan, Spicer, Filip Zigic, Michael Blume, Burke, Carney , and cox Pat Flynn to an 18th place finish.
The women's eight boat was also filled with youth, but made up in experience, as they all rowed in high school.The eight boat team consisted of coxswain Lindsay Superczynski, stroke Andrea Almeida, Clara Coleman, Sweeney, Papdatos, Cornell, Seckler, Gregitis, and Kimberly Chambers. Loyola finished 21st in the women's club eights.
The Greyhounds entered a men and women's doubles boat at the Regatta. The men were the fastest of any college competing in the category. The team finished in 16:31, good enough for eighth place. The women's doubles boat of Almeida and Coleman finished in the top ten. The pair recorded a time of 18:16, and finished in ninth place.
The Loyola rowing team will be back in the water Nov. 3, in Fairfax Station, Va., for the Occaquan Regatta.

It has the potential to be declared a bird sanctuary, says Pal Pandi
The birds, both native and migratory species, which come in a flock to relish the rich flora and fauna in and around the 440-acre Nanjarayan tank, situated a bit off Tirupur-Uthukuli Highway, had a 'special friend of them' to spend a day with on Thursday. Pal Pandi, nicknamed 'Bird man' with around 40 years of opulent experience as a bird watcher in Koonthankulam bird sanctuary, near Tirunelveli, and winner of many international and domestic awards, came to the area on an invitation from different stakeholders involved in the preservation of the Nanjarayan tank and its bird habitat.
"He has been invited to study whether the area, which is an abode of around 125 migratory bird species from as far as Western Europe and North American continent in seasonal spells, can be made into a bird sanctuary," said K. Raveendran, secretary, Tirupur Nature Society. The District Planning Committee under the chairmanship of District Panchayat Chairman has plans to promote tourism in the area. After a day's observation, Mr. Pandi said that the area had the potential to be declared a bird sanctuary provided certain facilities for the birds and also for watchers were additionally created. According to him, there is a need to nurture trees like 'neermarathu,' 'naaval,' and 'aththi,' along the banks of tank. The planting of the species' would improve the nesting possibilities and thereby, make many of the species remain in the area for longer periods.
"For visitors, three bird watching towers will be ideal considering the expanse of the area," he said. He, however, sounded caution on the plans of setting up recreational park in the area for the tourists.
"Such parks, if to be built, should come up either on the periphery of the sanctuary area or a bit away," he said. Similarly, he said that no boating should be allowed in the tank.

I believe that's the pay for the new, just beginning work as a judge, judge.

She brings an ethnic and gender addition to the bench. She is a bright and qualified lady.
Pay? The average practicing attorney with her experience would be bringing in around 250 - 300 k per year... It is a sacrifice to serve at the given salary.

Let me see - I think I read recently (The Economist?) that over the last 5 or 6 years the average compensation for a doctor has increased $100,000 per year. I'd agree with George, but without the sarcasm.

Here's a great Corvette show happening this Sunday, June 1st for those of you in the Silver Spring/Baltimore Maryland area. Our friends at Sport Chevrolet are hosting the 41st Annual Spring Car Show with the Corvette Club of America. The show features NCCC Sanctioned Corvette Fun Show Awards as well as awards for GM Muscle, Classic, Custom and Wounded Warrior Vehicles too!
This week we're giving MVP honors to LaLa Vazquez. She's the wife of New York Knicks Forward Carmelo Anthony and on Wednesday she surprised her star NBA husband with a black 2014 Corvette Stingray Coupe for his 30th birthday.
Barrett-Jackson® confirmed today in a conversation and subsequent press release that they will offer one of the most significant automobile collections in the world at their Scottsdale Auction in January 2015, the esteemed Ron Pratte collection. A spokesperson for Barrett-Jackson confirmed in a phone interview that the final details for liquidating the major part of Pratte's collection at the 2015 Scottsdale auction are being finalized by Craig Jackson, Steve Davis and Gary Bennett. Due to the size and significance of the collection a special catalog will be produced as soon as all of the details have been decided. The importance and magnitude of the event was best summarized by Steve Davis, President of Barrett-Jackson, "This is going to create excitement beyond anything we've ever seen." And based on excitement the "World's Greatest Collector Car Collection Auction" has produced, that is clearly is saying a lot.
It's time for Throwback Thursday where we feature vintage photos of Corvettes. Today's vintage picture features Corvette's first chief engineer Zora Arkus-Duntov with two 1971 Corvettes. Oh, and there's some other dude with retro sneakers in the pic as well.
Annual Test Day serves as dress rehearsal for Corvette C7.R's Le Mans debut
DETROIT (May 28, 2014) – The biggest challenge yet for the new Chevrolet Corvette C7.R beckons across the Atlantic. Sunday is the annual Test Day ahead of the 24 Hours of Le Mans and eight hours of track time for the C7.R and Corvette Racing's six drivers. It's the only time cars can run on the 8.3-mile circuit ahead of official practice and qualifying for the world's most grueling auto race June 14-15.
Despite the Corvette being named after a boat, that's doesn't make it one as the owner of this 2014 Corvette Stingray unfortunately learned the hard way.
Harlan Charles admits he has the ultimate job for a Corvette enthusiast in his role as Corvette product and marketing manager for GM/Chevrolet.
In the span of a short six-minute interview with Bloomberg Radio's Pimm Fox and Carol Massar on May 22, Charles manages to give a brief rundown on all the great things happening with Corvettes now and in the coming months.
That includes the special Stingray School that's being offered to new Corvette owners for $1,000 (some $1,500 off the normal price) at the Ron Fellows Performance Driving School at Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch near Las Vegas.
Most of us will never have the chance to drive, much less own, a supercar like the 2014 Hennessey Performance HPE650 supercharged Stingray or the upcoming 2015 Corvette Z06.
But while we're dreaming, let's go ahead and compare what we know about these two dream cars and try to come up with a conclusion about which one we'd take.
If you want exclusivity, then the Hennessey might be your best option. Only 100 of the cars will be produced, and with an engine tune that cranks out 650 horsepower – 25 more than expected in the Z06, the Hennessey definitely will have its fans.
Our friends at Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch recently played a role in an emotional surprise family reunion for a lieutenant in the U.S. Air Force Reserves.
Chevrolet, The Today Show, and Spring Mountain teamed up to make the reunion a possibility.

While we've already detailed many of the changes coming for the 2015 Corvette Stingray and the emergence of the all new 2015 Z06, the 2015 Corvette Order Guide [download the PDF] still has a few surprises.

- I`m a huge fan of Richard Linklater`s trilogy (Before sunrise, Before sunset, Before Midnight).
Having been a fan of it for a long time , since watching the very first of the series and right after watching the latest on (i prefer not to say the last;) , where i once more enjoyed the great dialogues between Jessie & Celine , i felt like i had to make such photographic trilogy series as a humble tribute to such beautiful work.This is the last from this triology. I promise to continue if the amazing film series will continue :)

Damien Hirst is an artist known for a number of works, one of those being his large production of spot paintings. There are over a thousand of them painted by him and his assistants, varying in size, number of dots, density, and color. Amanda Cox of The New York Times plotted paintings sold from 1999 to present, topping out at $3.4 million. That's a whole lot of dottage.

DEFINITION of 'Rehypothecation'
The practice by banks and brokers of using, for their own purposes, assets that have been posted as collateral by their clients. Clients who permit rehypothecation of their collateral may be compensated either through a lower cost of borrowing or a rebate on fees.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Rehypothecation'
In a typical example of rehypothecation, securities that have been posted with a prime brokerage as collateral by a hedge fund are used by the brokerage to back its own transactions and trades. While rehypothecation was a common practice until 2007, hedge funds became much more wary about it in the wake of the Lehman Brothers collapse and subsequent credit crunch in 2008-09.
In the United States, rehypothecation of collateral by broker-dealers is limited to 140% of the loan amount to a client, under Rule 15c3-3 of the SEC.

Raichur: The Scheduled Castes Reservation Hitha Rakshana Vedike has decided to organise a protest rally in New Delhi on March 11 opposing the United Progressive Alliance Government's proposal to provide reservation to Dalit Christians and Dalit Muslims.
Addressing presspersons here on Wednesday, P. Srinivas, convener of the vedike, said the proposal to provide Dalit status to certain people who had converted to Christianity and Islam was a move to suppress the Dalits. It was nothing but a political gimmick to woo those who had converted to other faiths. He said the vedikehad decided to stage nationwide rallies and dharnas to pressure the Government into withdrawing its proposal. Mr. Srinivas said a majority of people belonging to the Dalit community were poor and still needed special assistance to improve their living standards. Their reservation quota had now been reduced to 12 per cent. With the move proposing to give 15 per cent reservation to Dalit Christians and Dalit Muslims, the interests of the real Dalits would be affected. This would also promote conversions, he feared.

It seems that Hollywood is starting to catch on to what many viewers already know: Some of the best shows on TV are not on a network; they're streaming over your internet connection. Shows such as House of Cards and Orange Is the New Black from Netflix have been capturing people's imagination for years, although major awards have often eluded them. But in the first months of 2015, one announcement after another pointed toward a sort of streaming content renaissance.

NFL Nation: Marcus Mason
Who's holding Dan Snyder hostage?
While teams such as the Baltimore Ravens loaded up on offensive and defensive linemen, the Redskins turned to established stars in the league. Unfortunately, though, the Skins' version of March Madness couldn't overshadow what happened each fall.
Snyder built a foundation on smoke and mirrors, and the results had become downright depressing. At least the '09 season provided comic relief when Cerrato interrupted Sherm Lewis' bing0 calling to name him the team's playcaller. In retrospect, coach Jim Zorn was in over his head from the start. He was a panic hire by Snyder after his candidate pool evaporated in '08.
He has fired plenty of coaches in more than a decade as owner, but following last season's 4-12 campaign, Snyder knew his organization was at a crisis point. The losing was bad enough, but the Redskins had managed to alienate their fan base through a stunning series of blunders, the most humorous being a ban against homemade signs at games. In addition to being treated to a poor on-field product, fans were asked to express their dissatisfaction in healthier ways, such as politely clapping for first downs and pretending to recognize Marcus Mason's name.
If Snyder didn't get the next hire right, he might have encountered fan revolt. Fortunately for him, a Super Bowl-winning coach happened to have the '09 season off. Mike Shanahan might as well have had an office at Redskins Park because you knew he would replace Zorn from about Week 4 on. Snyder's only serious competition for Shanahan would've been the Cowboys, but most folks don't have an appreciation for Jerry Jones' devotion to Wade Phillips, a man who's happy to let the owner wear the whistle, and at times, the Russell coaching shorts.
The Redskins hired general manager Bruce Allen, son of George, late in the '09 season to start assessing the damage. Once he sacked Zorn, the stage was finally set for Team Shanahan to take over the building. The former Broncos coach hasn't done anything that dramatic (Artis Hicks, anyone?), but his presence alone has changed the club's perception around the league. As I walked the streets of Indianapolis during the combine in search of scouts and refreshments, people told me stories about Shanahan's iron-fisted ways. Members of the Cowboys' delegation weren't shy about admitting that the landscape of the NFC East would quickly change with Shanahan on the scene.
In fact, I'm not sure there's a coach in the league that Jones admires more than Shanahan. In the past, Shanahan had been a ghost at the combine, slipping into town to look at a certain player and then leaving before anyone saw him. But this year, Shanahan was popping up all over the place. He spent more than an hour with reporters and then I later saw him sharing trail mix with Wade Phillips at a Marriott property. For now, Shanahan's the face of the franchise and I think he realizes how important it is for fans to see him at work.
On the eve of free agency last Thursday, Redskins fans gathered at their laptops (hopefully) and read about Shanahan and Allen releasing 10 players. It sort of felt like the final cuts in the preseason. Allen was rather diplomatic in his description of Black Thursday at Redskins Park. Cornerback DeAngelo Hall was a little more blunt, telling ESPN that the Skins were able to shed some "dead weight." Nice touch, DeAngelo.
Some of us interpreted these moves as a prelude to a big-ticket item in free agency, but unless Hicks and Maake Kemoeatu were at the top of your wish list, the Skins basically sat on their hands. You keep waiting for that other shoe to drop, but it looks like this is all we're going to get. It makes you wonder if someone's kidnapped the free-spending Snyder, an owner who has been known to covet another man's roster. Surely he'll put a stop to all this inactivity at some point. But Allen recently told SI.com's Peter King that Snyder seems to be taking the (non) news in stride.
"He didn't throw anything at me," said Allen of Snyder. "And he didn't throw a tantrum. He's fine with it."
So we've apparently entered a new era of Washington Redskins football. To be clear, though, Shanahan won't be given license to have a couple more 4-12 seasons. He isn't expected to win the NFC East title in 2010, but the Redskins will need to show marked improvement.
Fortunately for Shanahan, the bar's been set pretty low over the past decade. His critics will point toward his playoff record in the post-John Elway era in Denver. But his total body of work is impressive.
The best news for Redskins fans is that Shanahan and Allen don't appear to be looking for shortcuts. As we've seen in the past, shortcuts look a lot better in March than they do in December. Artie Hicks and Kemo might not get your heart pumping, but regaining the respect of your division foes should.
And that has already happened.
Wrap-up: Redskins 34, Raiders 13
It's also important to note that Jason Campbell and second-year tight end Fred Davis have found something pretty special. Since Chris Cooley suffered what turned out to be a season-ending injury, Davis has become a big part of this offense. He scored two more touchdowns Sunday.
It's also encouraging to see running backs Quinton Ganther and Marcus Mason racking up some yards. The Redskins are getting a look at a lot of their young players right now. It's impressive that they've continued to compete. I think the next head coach can build around this defense. Even when Albert Haynesworth hasn't been available, Orakpo and Andre Carter have played excellent football. They combined for six of the Skins' eight sacks Sunday. It was a very impressive performance.
And let me say this for the 10th time in the past two weeks. Try to get London Fletcher in the Pro Bowl. He turned in another impressive performance Sunday.
Redskins-Pats: What did we learn?
Posted by ESPN.com's Matt Mosley
It's much easier for me to defend Jason Campbell when he plays like he did last night. The Redskins lost to the Patriots in the final seconds of a preseason game, but they appeared to gain much-needed confidence in the process. Campbell was 13-of-22 for 209 yards and a rushing touchdown, but the most important thing was that he looked poised the entire time. We saw what he can do when the offensive line gives him a little time.

|Marko Mitchell caught a touchdown pass in front of cornerback Jamar Love during the second half of Friday night's game.
After he called it a night, Campbell told Jim Nantz and Phil Simms that the offense couldn't "dink and dunk" its way down the field and be successful. And that's why you see coach Jim Zorn calling for so many downfield passes. I thought Post columnist Mike Wise summed it up pretty well after last night's game. OK, let's take a closer look at what took place:
Tom Brady and Randy Moss pretty much toyed with DeAngelo Hall. It wasn't an awful performance by the defense at all, but Hall was clearly in over his head against Moss. I realize he's going to make a lot of cornerbacks look bad, but you would hope Hall wouldn't get completely overwhelmed. When receivers such as Terrell Owens, Moss and Larry Fitzgerald showed up, it was always nice to have Shawn Springs on the field. Unfortunately, he now plays for the Pats. The best news for the Skins? They don't have to see Moss again -- unless it's in the Super Bowl. The good news for the defense is the three turnovers. In the second half, linebacker Rocky McIntosh made a superb play to tip the ball away from the tight end and allow LaRon Landry to go the other way. Also a really nice play on the ball by rookie corner Kevin Barnes. He's got some really good skills. This draft class is looking better all the time.
The Skins had 15 penalties for 113 yards? REALLY? Amid some of the positive aspects from this game, the penalties have to be driving Jim Zorn nuts. And you can't really pick on one unit. The defensive tackles may want to work on lining up in the right spots and you should start eliminating the false starts along the offensive line at this stage in the preseason. The 15-yard penalties will get you beat, and that's what happened when Hall grabbed Moss' facemask. The Skins' defense had a chance to get off the field at that point, but the penalty gave the Patriots another shot. You can't do that with one of the most potent offenses in the league.
There's no way in the world you can keep Marko Mitchell off the roster -- and why would you even try? He's big and he makes important catches. He froze a defender on a little hitch and go in the second half, and Colt Brennan found him for a 33-yard touchdown. Patriots cornerback Jamar Love never had a chance. The guy keeps getting in the end zone, and he's become perhaps the most pleasant surprise of the preseason for the Redskins. He offers what quarterbacks like to call a wide strike zone and he appears to be learning how to beat jams near the line of scrimmage. He could be a real threat near the goal line because of his body control and hands.
Colt Brennan didn't perform well enough to overtake Chase Daniel -- at least in my opinion: The same things that made Brennan one of the most prolific passers in the history of college football can also get him in big trouble. He's supremely confident and he thinks he can fit a ball into any space. But he has to be smarter when he's around the goal line. For the second time in as many games, Brennan made a horrible decision near the goal line. He forced a pass that was picked off by Jonathan Wilhite and returned 99 yards for a touchdown. Brennan tried the old "I was just trying to make a play" excuse after the game, but that doesn't hold water. He basically surrendered 10 points with that ill-advised throw -- seven to the Patriots and three that he took away from the Skins. I liked that he came right back with the touchdown to Mitchell, but it wasn't enough to overshadow the interception in my mind. I do like the way Brennan handles screens. He's athletic enough to spin away from trouble and dump the ball to Marcus Mason on the run. Not as easy as it looks.
Hated to see Mason get the bruised ribs in the fourth quarter. It's hard to recover from those when you're taking a lot of punishment at running back. I think Mason's put himself in position to challenge Ladell Betts for the backup role. He's more explosive than Betts in my mind, and he's a better change-of-pace back. Mason puts more pressure on defenses -- both on the ground and through the air -- than Betts.
Hello, Anthony Alridge!: I've been waiting to see this guy all preseason. The former University of Houston star -- as proud U of H alum Nantz noted several times -- has elite speed. He's only about 5-foot-9, but as you saw Friday night, no one can seem to get a clean shot on him. I know he was going against the Patriots' backups, but Alridge still popped off the screen. I hope the guy gets a shot. Last year, the Redskins didn't have enough depth at running back. But with Mason, Dominique Dorsey, Betts and Alridge, they look a lot better this season.
Does Chad Rinehart frustrate you guys as much as he does me? I thought he had his moments, but the guard just sort of looks lost at times. On a play in the second half, he let a Patriots defensive tackle race right past him. The p
layer ended up being flagged for hitting Brennan too low. But that never happens if Rinehart does his job. It's like he never he even made an attempt at the guy. I'd hoped Rinehart would be a lot farther down the road at this point. Too many mental mistakes from what I'm seeing. Zorn will want to cut Rinehart after watching that play. Not saying he will, but the thought will cross his mind.
I'm not sure why Zorn doesn't run the ball inside the 10-yard line. In the second half, I kept wondering why Zorn wouldn't let Mason or Alridge have a chance to run the ball near the goal line. He seemed intent on letting Brennan find someone in the end zone. That would've been a good test for the offensive line to try to plow it in there.
Did the Skins not think the Patriots would blitz? In the second half, a linebacker for the Patriots (Guyton?) came clean from the right side. It's like the Redskins were shocked that Bill Belichick might send an extra rusher.
H.B. Blades is a bad man: How great was that stick he put on Fred Taylor? You don't want to get caught running high when Blades is anywhere around. He absolutely destroyed Taylor, causing him to spin in the air like a merry-go-round.
With 4:30 left in a meaningless games, I find myself shouting at Brennan: When your team's in field goal position, how in the world do you take a sack? This might have been the point when I actually knew Daniel would make the team ahead of Brennan. Just a bone-headed play right there. Once you've escaped the pocket and don't see anything, fling it out of bounds. That play set up Shaun Suisham's miss from 52 yards. Everyone can try to pile on my man Suisham, but that was all Brennan's fault.
What's the deal with the coverage? You're in a close game in the fourth quarter and you let Patrick Chung just shred the punt coverage unit? The punt certainly wasn't high enough (46 yards in length), but someone has to at least force Chung to make a move. He darts toward the sideline and coverage completely fell apart. Bad, bad play right there on special teams.
I'll be keeping my eye on the Cowboys and Giants this evening. Thanks for your continued interest.
My thoughts on Skins' win over Pittsburgh
Posted by ESPN.com's Matt Mosley
I don't think it's time to panic about Jason Campbell going 1-of-7 for 10 yards in a 17-13 preseason win over the Steelers. But it's important that Campbell finds a rhythm in the third preseason game -- and he knows that.
Campbell missed Malcolm Kelly on a deep ball and he was high on a throw to Santana Moss. I think he was pressing a bit because he knew he was only going to play three series. The good news is that Washington's running game looked strong throughout the game. OK, here are a few things that caught my eye:
- Brian Orakpo has been sensational through two preseason games. I enjoyed watching him playing with the backups in the second quarter. At that point, he was obviously the best player on the field and he even looked solid in coverage. Orakpo embarrassed his former college teammate at Texas, Tony Hills, in the second quarter. Orakpo used a bull rush to push Hills back in the pocket. He knocked Hills about 3 feet into the air.
- Jim Zorn made it sound like Campbell had a nice evening. Zorn praised Campbell for his decision making and thought he managed the team well. Obviously Zorn want to make sure Campbell's confidence level remains high. Campbell put on a brave face for reporters after the game, but I assure you he's beating himself up over the six incompletions.
- How can you keep Marcus Mason or Marko Mitchell off this roster? Mason's one of the best preseason backs this organization has had. On Saturday, he showed the speed we've grown accustomed to seeing, but he also mixed in some power. He sent a Steelers safety flying at the end of one play. Mitchell made the nice touchdown catch from Chase Daniel. He hesitated at first in order to give Daniel some space to throw the ball. Then Mitchell simply won a jump ball. The former Nevada receiver might end up being the fifth receiver.
- I still think Devin Thomas will make some mental errors, but he's capable of making big plays. I liked the twisting catch he made Saturday night. He has all the tools, but he needs every rep in the preseason he can get.
- Scary moment in the first half when fullback Mike Sellers was writhing in pain with a knee injury. The good news is that Sellers only has a bruised knee. He's such a vital part of the Redskins' running game. They would really struggle without him.
- Reed Doughty was everywhere . I pretty much wrote the guy off last season, but he's actually had a solid camp. He made a couple of open-field tackles that were very impressive and he looked confident in the secondary.
- Is it too early to start worrying about the Skins' awful coverage units? They looked especially bad in punt coverage. They didn't have anything close to containment on the edges.
- I used to watch Redskins safety Lendy Holmes when he was in high school. The former Oklahoma Sooner was one of the surest tacklers on the field Saturday. A lot of rookies look a little wide-eyed at this point. That's not the way Holmes operates.
- I love the fact that safety Kareem Moore is a high-energy guy, but he needs to play under control. It seems like Moore's constantly going for the interception. Moore and another '08 draft pick, Rob Jackson, have a tendency to overrun plays.
- I'd cut D.J. Hackett the first chance I had. It's not that I think he's a bad player, but right now, he's simply taking up space. I'd much rather see Mitchell, Thomas and Kelly getting the majority of the reps.
- Daniel had a really effective outing. I think he has the edge on Colt Brennan at this point. And yes, I know that hurts at lot of you guys.
- On the interception that Todd Collins threw, Thomas needs to come back for the ball. He sort of froze on his comeback route, and that allowed former Colts cornerback Keiwan Ratliff to make a really nice play on the ball.
- If you're Brennan, you can't throw the ball into traffic in the red zone. I'm sure Zorn was incensed with that turnover. Just an awful decision by Brennan.
- Kelly does a really nice job of catching the ball away from his body. He did some nice things in Saturday's game, but the best thing he does is catch the ball consistently. Thomas might have the most upside, but Kelly's showing the most maturity right now.
- Former CFL star Dominique Dorsey has to make this team as a return specialist. And he's halfway home. He had some outstanding returns. The Skins need to reserve a spot on the roster for him. He's that good as a return guy -- and he runs with a little power.
Redskins' veteran punter Frost released
Both the NFL Network and the Washington Post are reporting that Redskins punter Derrick Frost has been released. Frost and rookie Durant Brooks out of Georgia Tech have been battling for the job throughout training camp. It appeared that Frost had the edge because of better numbers and his experience holding for kicker Shaun Suisham.
Brooks won the Ray Guy Award last year at Georgia Tech, and definitely has an explosive leg. I don't think he'll have a huge margin for error, though.
The NFL Network is also reporting that Todd Wade and Marcus Mason have been released.

An X-ray cassette 30 has a window 32 for mounting a back-lit LCD 34 to expose the film therein with patient identifying information in the form of a barcode. A strip of lead 38 opposite window 32 shields film 37 when cover 31 is closed. The LCD is activated after a sensor 56 connected to an X-ray tube 54 detects the discharge of X-rays. The patient identifying information may be read directly from the patient's bracelet 47 at the same time the X-ray is taken using barcode scanner 44.
1. A patient identification system comprising means for reading a barcode associated with said patient, X-ray cassette means for containing unexposed X-ray film for receiving X-ray irradiation passing through said patient, said cassette comprising a hinged cover, means comprising a backlit LCD mounted in said cover for transferring said barcode to a portion of said X-ray film, and means for irradiating said unexposed X-ray film with X-ray radiation passing through said patient, said system including means having an inductive coil to pick up the current surge associated with the X-ray irradiation of said patient for reading and transferring said barcode from said patient to energize said LCD and thereby to imprint said barcode on said film in response to and simultaneously with irradiating said X-ray film.
This application is a continuation of our patent application Ser. No. 07/637,408 filed on Jan. 4, 1991, now abandoned.
The present invention relates to barcoding and more particularly to the barcoding of X-ray film.
Extensive use of X-rays in hospitals and other facilities requires that each X-ray film be carefully and accurately marked with proper identification of the patient. In a typical situation, multiple exposures are taken for each patient, and patients are exposed one after the other as they are moved through the X-ray facility.
It is obviously critical that each film exposed be accurately marked with the patient's identifying information. With the large volume involved, it is seen that it is essential that the film be marked as close to the exposure as possible to insure this accuracy.
In spite of the many procedures put in place to insure proper identification, it can readily be appreciated that will be marked with the wrong patient's identification. This could occur because the technician may be interrupted by a telephone call necessitating putting down temporarily the cassette holding the film before the exposure and identifying procedure is complete, or for any number of other reasons. When the mistake is made, there can be tragic implications for one or both of the patients involved, as well as exposure to liability of the institution responsible for the X-rays.
One system commonly in use today for placing identifying information on an X-ray film relies on printing such information photographically on a corner of the film prior to or after X-ray exposure. X-ray film prepared for exposure involves placing a sheet of such film within a cassette sealed against light One side of the cassette is made of material which is transparent to X-rays On the other side of the cassette there is mounted in one corner a small window with a sliding panel or door closing the opening. Typically, the patient is first exposed to the X-rays and then the exposed film is taken to a dark room where the door is opened and a transparent sheet with the patient's identifying information is put in place. A light is then flashed to expose the film in that corner to record that information photographically on the film. A small patch of lead can protect the corner opposite the opening to exposure by the X-rays.
Some cassettes do not have an opening or a window. In such situations, the film must be removed from the cassette in a dark room and then flashed with the information. This extra step, of course, improves the chances that an error will be made.
Between the time that the information is imprinted by exposure and the taking of the X-ray, the possibility exists, as already noted, that an error can be made. If the technician is rushed, and is handling a number of cassettes at one time, and in several locations, which is not unusual today, there is significant risk that such a mistake can be made.
In this invention many of the shortcomings and drawbacks of systems now in use for placing patient identifying information on exposed X-ray film are overcome or substantially avoided by applying a barcode or other such information to the X-ray film simultaneously or substantially simultaneously with the X-ray exposure itself.
In one preferred embodiment of this invention there is provided a system for photographically imprinting an identifying barcode on the X-ray film utilizing a back lit LCD simultaneously or substantially simultaneously with the exposure of the film to the X-rays. For this purpose, a device incorporating the LCD is mounted on the X-ray film cassette covering an opening in the cassette with the LCD screen directly facing the film within the cassette. The LCD is energized to flash the patient's identifying information in barcode or other convenient form so that such information becomes permanently displayed on said film. This would be done at the same or substantially the same time the film is being exposed to the X-rays, while the cassette is mounted on the X-ray machine for such exposure.
By back lit LCD herein is meant a liquid crystal display device in which a source of light is provided behind an active-matrix of dots of a liquid crystal which becomes opaque blocking the passage of light when a voltage is applied to the liquid crystal. As is understood in the art, the application of an emf to each of the individual dots will create a display of any information conveyed which will block the light passing out the front of the LCD.
It is expected that the exposure to the LCD may take place while the cassette is mounted in the X-ray machine in which case the technician would have a separate switch to energize the LCD, or there may be a sensor or pickup to respond to actuation of the X-ray machine, although a short time delay may be introduced to avoid the voltage/current excursions or pertubations associated with the operation of an X-ray machine.
To further insure that no mistake will be made in the identification process, a scanner may be employed to read the barcode on an identification tag belonging to the patient when he or she appears for the X-ray and is in or about to get into position to be exposed. In this way, there is minimal human intervention involved in transferring the identification information thereby minimizing the opportunity for a mistake to creep in.
It is thus a principal object of this invention to provide an improved system for imprinting patient identification information on X-ray film.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will hereinafter become obvious from the following description of preferred embodiments of this invention.
FIG. 1 is an isometric view of an X-ray film cassette now commonly in use.
FIG. 2 is an isometric view of an X-ray film cassette modified in accordance with a preferred embodiment of this invention.
FIG. 3 is an isometric view of the cassette shown in FIG. 2 in an open position.
FIG. 4 is an illustrative diagram showing a system incorporating the principles of this invention.
FIG. 5 is an illustrative diagram showing the system being used to pick up identifying information from a patient, and how such information is transferred to X-ray film in accordance with the principles of this invention.
FIG. 6 is a block diagram showing one manner in which the system would be utilized during radiation exposure of a patient.
Referring to FIG. 1, there is illustrated a typical X-ray film cassette 10 with a cover 12 hinged at 14 with latches 16 for either locking or permitting cover 12 to be opened. In one corner of cassette 10 is located in cover 12 an opening 18 with a sliding panel or door 22 shown in a partially open condition. The underside of cassette 10 which is not visible is made from a material opaque to light but transparent to X-rays. The other side of cassette 10 may have appropriate shielding.
To use cassette 10, latches 16 are released to open cover 12 and a sheet of unexposed X-ray film is inserted (in the dark), then cover 12 is closed. To place patient identifying material on the film, opening 18 is uncovered by sliding panel or door 22 open (in the dark) and a transparent label containing the information is placed over or on opening 18. A light is flashed to expose the film with that information, and then panel or door 22 is shut. Cassette 10 is then inserted into the X-ray machine where the patient is irradiated producing the desired image on the film. A small patch of lead (not shown) would be located in front of the film preventing further exposure where the patient identifying information is located. The patient identifying material may be placed on the X-ray film after the patient has been exposed.
In an environment where many patients are being processed, and multiple X-rays may be taken of each patient, the fact that the cassette has to be handled by a technician between the time that patient information is recorded and the X-ray is taken makes it possible that errors will occur, and, in fact, while statistically small, such errors do occur. Errors in identification, where patient's cassettes are inadvertently switched, can be very serious, so that extreme measures must be taken to avoid such situations.
FIGS. 2 and 3 show a modified cassette 30 identical to cassette 10 except that instead of opening 18 with a door 22, there is provided in cover 31 an opening 32 with a back lit LCD 34 mounted thereon. LCD 34, which may be either mounted as a permanent part of cassette 30, or snapped into opening 32 with its screen 33 facing into cassette 30 in which case a cover or door (not shown) would be required for opening 32, is provided with a jack 36 for receiving its electrical input. As is understood in the art, any suitable optical system may be employed between the face of LCD 34 and the X-ray film.
As more particularly seen in FIG. 3, with cover 31 of cassette 30 open, opening 32 shows the face 33 of LCD 34 displaying whatever information is supplied to it for display. Also shown in a sheet 37 of X-ray film and a strip 38 of lead shielding under film 37 opposite window 32 when cover 31 is closed.
LCD 34 when mounted on cassette 30 and connected for use as shown in FIG. 4 is part of a system 40 comprising a computer 42, a barcode scanner 44, and a barcode printer 46. In addition, it is understood that system 40 can be part of a larger system (not shown) in which billing information can be stored and printed out, diagnostic information recorded and made available, and treatment recorded, for each individual patient.
In system 40, as seen in FIG. 5, scanner 44 can be utilized to scan the barcode on the patient's bracelet 47 when he or she enters the X-ray room and is prepared for irradiation, and stores that information in computer 40. Cassette 30 containing a sheet of X-ray film ready to be exposed, would be placed in the X-ray machine with LCD 34 connected to the cassette as illustrated. Shortly before or after the X-ray exposure, substantially simultaneously with the taking of the X-ray, the technician will close switch SW1 to generate a barcode in LCD 34 thereby imprinting that information on the film itself.
If desired, the patient, once placed in position for irradiation, reading of the barcode on the patient can occur simultaneously with the taking of the X-rays and the transfer of the barcode or other identifying information to the film in the cassette, thus insuring that no possibility of error exists.
When the fully exposed X-ray film is mounted on a light box, for example, for viewing, the barcode or other identifying information will appear in its normal form, that is, black with a white background, for reading by conventional scanning apparatus.
It should be noted that since computer 40, which could be a main frame for the whole institution, name, address, attending physician, social security number, etc., the system can be readily programmed to display in addition to or instead of the barcode, any other information which may be deemed to be either necessary or desirable.
In addition, while in FIGS. 4 and 5, the units of the system are shown wired together, they in fact could be linked together by radio, as is understood in the art. Furthermore, under the current state of the electronics art, some or all of the electronics included in computer 42 could be included in LCD 34, cassette 30, or even barcode scanner 44.
Another way in which cassette 30 can be employed is shown in FIG. 6. In this arrangement, cassette 30 is mounted under the X-ray table 52 on which the patient is placed, and computer 42 is shown connected to LCD 34. Connected to X-ray tube 54 is a sensor 56 which will detect the discharge of X-rays to activate LCD 34 simultaneously. A delay 48 may be inserted in the line so that LCD 34 will be activated a second or two later, to avoid current surges caused by the burst of energy used by X-ray tube 54. Sensor 56 may be an inductive coil to pick up the current surge associated with the operation of X-ray tube 54 or any other means responsive to operation of this device In this arrangement also, the patient's barcode can be read directly from the patient at the same time the X-ray is taken, and the patient identifying information is transferred to the X-ray film.
While the specific embodiments of this invention describe only the use of the LCD to supply the patient identfying information, it should be noted that other light generation electronic devices may be employed under some circumstances, such as a CRT or an LED. In addition, it might be desirable at times to employ the barcode scanner to read information directly from the screen of the LCD; equipment is commercially available which is capable of doing this.
It is understood that the present invention can be incorporated into a complete system based on the patient's barcode or other identification for integrating diagnosis, treatment, tests other than just X-rays, for example, blood and urine tests, etc., billing, and insurance payments
While only certain preferred embodiments of this invention have been described, it is understood that many variations of this invention are possible without departing from the principles of this invention as defined in the claims which follow.
