HHS Deputy CIO John Teeter spoke about HHS involvement at panel today
The Health and Human Services Department recently joined a federal information-sharing system that already includes law enforcement, intelligence, homeland security and diplomatic officials, a HHS official said today at a forum sponsored by AFCEA-Bethesda.
HHS added a representative to the steering committee for the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM), said John Teeter, deputy CIO at HHS. NIEM is a federal data model of standards, vocabularies and processes for sharing data across domains.
Although HHS has been involved for many years in supporting federal counterterrorism efforts, especially for bioterrorism and pandemic influenza surveillance, it is becoming more active in collaborating with the Homeland Security and Justice departments, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), and state and local agencies on common standards for sharing data more broadly, Teeter said.
Vendors help sought for NIEM's next step
A tipping point for NIEM?
HHS also has been developing its own information-sharing networks and standards for personal health information and public health data. It developed the Nationwide Health Information Network as a set of protocols for secure data exchange.
The next step is to develop more connections in NIEM so HHS can get more input on events or situations that might affect public health — such as an environmental spill or radioactivity leak — and to take advantage of information-sharing networks that already exist.
"We are actively trying to build out an architecture in the health domain," Teeter said. "We are all so focused on our individual missions, and we don't leverage enough."
The obstacles to sharing are not technical but rather "politics, policies and perceptions," he added. In health care, one of the misperceptions of sharing is the idea that private health information may be breached.
For example, some people have the misperception that personal health information cannot be secured, Teeter said. There is some risk, though the risk may be exaggerated, he added.
Similar privacy and security concerns affect federal information sharing more broadly. David Burns, deputy information sharing executive at ODNI, said he spends most of his time dealing with policy and strategy issues rather than solving technical problems.

Picture: Cher bra on display at the Rock 'N' Roll celebrity memorabilia Fame Bureau auction at the Orleans Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada...
Cher's heavyweight daughter CHASTITY BONO signed up for the new series of reality TV weightloss show CELEBRITY FIT CLUB because she's sick of feeling like an outsider in her native Los Angeles.
The 200-pound-plus (90.7 kilograms) gay rights activist and writer agreed to take part in the upcoming third series of the VH1 show - and shed the pounds in front of US TV viewers - after realising she felt miserable socialising with fit and thin Angelenos.
She says, "I live in Los Angeles... and you do feel kind of separate and apart when you're overweight in this town.
"It's not other people doing it. I have eyes, I see what the standard is in this town. I don't fit it, so I'm not 100 per cent comfortable.
"I don't need to be skinny in order to be comfortable, I just need to be healthy."
Bono, who was shocked to learn her body has a whopping 42 per cent fat content at the recent Celebrity Fit Club weigh-in, admits she'd love to look like her mother, and blames her late father Sonny Bono's genes for landing her with a weight problem.
She explains, "If you look at early Sonny + CHER, like, I GOT YOU BABE in the mid-60s, he was a little chubby... and then he lost a lot of weight before THE SONNY + CHER SHOW."

The transformation of the Red Sox is complete. Five years to the day after they endured one of the wrenching defeats in team history, the Red Sox underscored that they are defined by a new narrative in a new era.
Just minutes past midnight on October 17, 2003, Yankees third baseman Aaron Boone homered to banish the Sox from the American League Championship Series and end Boston's season in startling fashion. Last night, the Sox were positioned to endure an echo of that disappointment, their season ready to expire in the same round, on the same day, at the same witching hour.
But where former Boston manager Grady Little worried about the members of his team who were haunted by the past, there was no such concern among this generation of Red Sox. Instead, one loss away from elimination and down by a colossal 7-0 margin to the Tampa Bay Rays in the seventh inning of Game 5 of the ALCS, the Sox drew upon an incredible era of success.
In the span of three innings, the Sox piled eight runs on the board, concluding in a walkoff 8-7 victory that sent the best-of-seven ALCS back to Tampa Bay. The Sox find themselves still alive, down 3-2 in the series, and incredibly confident that they can punch yet another ticket to the World Series.
"(There was) no doubt. We've done it twice before. Why would we have any doubt?" mused closer Jonathan Papelbon. "There was never a doubt in our minds. There really wasn't. This is a comfort zone for us, and nothing seems to bother us."
The Sox have now won eight straight elimination games in the ALCS, adding last night's epic comeback to four straight victories after falling behind the Yankees 3-0 in 2004, and three straight after trailing the Indians 3-1 last year.
Overall, since the 2003 season, the team is now 12-2 when facing win-or-go-home circumstances. The ability to defy adversity has become habit and mindset forming.
"I don't think," said Sox catcher Jason Varitek, "you can take away belief."
Perhaps it started yesterday with the rare pre-game meeting called by Red Sox manager Terry Francona. The skipper's message, according to team members, was a simple reaffirmation of faith in the team, a reminder that good things would come to the club if it followed a familiar formula to "keep grinding it."
Yet when the Sox went down by a 5-0 count after just three innings, that commitment easily could have wavered.
"It was really deflating," said reserve Sean Casey. "We were probably 3¾ (games) down."
The Rays were steamrolling the Sox. They jumped out to a five-run lead through three innings on the strength of homers by the familiar force of B.J. Upton, Carlos Pena and Evan Longoria. Tampa Bay then added a pair of insurance runs against closer Jonathan Papelbon, and led by an astonishing 7-0 count.
Some of the fans started making their retreat from the 2008 season. Yet while the faith of some fans wavered, the Sox remained resolute.
"There was definitely not any talk about going home or packing up," said Sox outfielder Coco Crisp. "I'm surprised that it didn't come up—down by seven against a team like this. But it didn't come up."
And why should it? The Sox have done so much in recent seasons to warp the laws of probability that they can now stubbornly cling to any shred of possibility. There is little doubt that what the Sox faced was even the case yesterday, despite a hole that seemed on the same—perhaps even a higher—level than what it stared down in '04 and '07.
Only once in playoff history had a team come back from as many as seven runs down. (The 1929 Philadelphia A's erased an eight-run lead in Game 4 of the World Series.) The Rays had gone 38-0 in games when they had a lead of five or more runs. The biggest Red Sox comeback win of the 2008 regular season was five runs. That was against the lowly Texas Rangers, a team with the worst pitching staff in baseball.
This was a more daunting task. The Sox had shown no life over the first six innings against starter Scott Kazmir. They were down by seven against a bullpen that not only finished the regular season with the second best ERA in baseball (3.55) but that had an unbelievable 1.46 ERA in the playoffs.
The offense, meanwhile, had no apparent pulse. Mike Lowell, the 2007 World Series MVP, was out, Jacoby Ellsbury was on the bench due to an 0-for-20 streak and designated hitter David Ortiz had been little better, going 1-for-17 (.059) against Tampa and without a single run batted in.
And yet the players found a switch to flip. A mantra echoed in the dugout as the team built the resolve to stage a comeback. The process would be crucial to produce a seven-run rally over nine outs. The team would have to grind at-bats to dust, fight every offering by the Rays bullpen.
"We said, 'Let's win every pitch,'" said Crisp. "Everybody got into it. We got on a roll."
The uprising started inconspicuously enough. Jed Lowrie doubled to lead off the seventh, but a pair of flyouts just as quickly made it seem as if the threat would be extinguished. Back-to-back singles by Crisp and Dustin Pedroia, however, sustained the inning for an October great who had not yet lived up to his reputation.
Though David Ortiz had struggled during the playoffs, however, the Sox could convince themselves that they could get back in the game. With runners on the corners and now 7-1, that once-foreign sense of conviction settled upon the team.
"You could feel it when he stepped up there, knowing it was a big spot, knowing—hey, this is do-or-die here. We need a big hit. That was it, man. He's come up with a ton of those in his career," said Casey. "(Ortiz) came up and we said, 'Okay, there's hope here.' Then, boom—he crushed that ball. And we went, 'We've got a lot of hope. We've got a lot of hope.'"
The surge was in motion. Rays reliever Grant Balfour hadn't given up a single homer to a left-handed hitter all year. When Ortiz deposited a ball in the right-field grandstand, the Sox had shaved the lead to 7-4.
The homer served as a rebuttal to the days of wondering where Big Papi had gone during the playoffs.
"I hope I can come in and produce like that. I know this ballclub counts on me a lot," said Ortiz. "(There has been) a lot of blame for Papi because Papi hasn't been hitting. But it's not like Papi is going to hit every time like that."
Yet he does have enough of an October track record—most memorably, in the form of three walkoff hits, the most in major-league history—that there is an expectation that Ortiz will do something remarkable in those situations.
So, too, is there an expectation of what the Red Sox might do when confronted with extinction. The three-run eighth that followed—keyed by a J.D. Drew two-run homer and Crisp's phenomenal 10-pitch at-bat that concluded with a two-out, game-tying single—made it 7-7.
Drew's two-out walkoff hit in the bottom of the ninth, his first game-ending hit as a member of the Sox, inspired a familiar sense of bedlam in the stands at Fenway Park and a familiar swagger in the Boston clubhouse. This is the culture to which Red Sox newcomers are welcomed, an organization that can draw upon a rich reservoir of incredible victories.
"I've only been here since last year, so I don't know if I can be the one to say that this is a traditional strength of the Red Sox, to win in these elimination situations," said Sox starter Daisuke Matsuzaka. "But we all felt we couldn't let it end here tonight, and we all believed we could come back tonight."
"It's unbelievable how we came back in this game," added Kevin Youkilis. "It showed the determination and hard work that guys put in. The never give up attitude all these players have. It's awesome."
The Rays, meanwhile, find themselves in a position that was once familiar to the Red Sox, but that is now experienced chiefly by Boston's postseason opponents. A Tampa Bay team that seemed ready to make history of its own by barging into the World Series is now left to insist that it will not crumple following a devastating defeat.
"If we had won it, we'd be in the World Series by now. We'll just have to wait one more day, hopefully, to get that done," said Rays manager Joe Maddon. "The more you dwell on something in a negative sense, the more it can permeate your whole existence."
That was a notion that was once painfully, excruciatingly familiar to members of the Red Sox. No longer.
Now, the experience of a franchise manifests itself another way. The Sox are familiar not merely with a rabbit-from-a-hat victory that changes the tide of the series, but also the acts that must follow.
It is one thing to forge a historic comeback in a single game, quite another to sustain it for a series win. And so as they prepared to fly to Central Florida, the Sox were more interested in putting their Game 5 win into context, rather than dwelling on a singularly exceptional victory.
"Hopefully," said Sox manager Terry Francona, "we can sit back and think this is what got us over the hump, but we're still climbing."
Can they do so once more? The championship-winning identity of this Red Sox club suggests as much. Pessimism has been replaced by a profound sense that anything is possible.
"When you have somebody down, you can't let them breathe," said Ortiz. "But we just don't give in. We've come from behind a lot of times."

These consultations can provide legal options about whether such families may be eligible to seek compensation for medical costs, pain and suffering and other expenses that may stem from these circumstances.
SSRI anti-depressants are the newest class of anti-depressants and are sold under various brand and generic drug names such as Zoloft, Prozac, Paxil, Lexapro and Depakote. The National Institute of Mental Health describes these medications as the most popular type of anti-depressants.**
The common allegations in the Zoloft multidistrict litigation* are that women who used Zoloft to treat depression while pregnant were put at increased risk of giving birth to an infant suffering from birth defects such as cleft palate, club foot, spina bifida and heart and abdominal defects, according to the claims in the court files.
Also claimed in these court filings are allegations that some infants may have been born suffering from the life-threatening condition known as pulmonary hypertension in newborns (PPHN).
This condition, according to the Food and Drug Administration, occurs when a newborn baby does not adapt to breathing outside the womb.**
The FDA says that newborns with PPHN may require intensive care support including a mechanical ventilator to increase their oxygen level. If severe, PPHN can result in multiple organ damage, including brain damage, and even death.
Resource4thePeople notes that the FDA has given mixed signals about the link between PPHN and SSRI use. In 2006 the agency issued a warning about the dangers of SSRI use and PPHN. Now the FDA says it is unsure.***
Here is the most recent statement by the FDA, released on Dec. 14, 2011:
"The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is updating the public on the use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressants by women during pregnancy and the po

The Chimes (US band)
The Chimes (later Lenny Cocco & the Chimes) were an American doo wop group from Brooklyn.
The group came together under the direction of lead singer Lenny Cocco in the mid-1950s. Their first single was a version of Tommy Dorsey's "Once in a While", released on Tag Records. The song became a hit in the U.S., peaking at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1961. The follow-up single was "I'm in the Mood for Love", a song from the 1930s. This hit #38 later that year. In 1962, they began recording as Lenny & the Chimes, and moved to Metro Records and then to Laurie Records in 1963. In 1964, they released the single "Two Times" on Vee-Jay, but broke up shortly after.
In subsequent decades they have re-formed for the doo-wop revival circuit, usually under the name Lenny Cocco and the Chimes.

Third-gen iPad Smart Cover woes blamed on polarity
A new report suggests that the third-generation iPad's incompatibility is due to a change in the sensor used to sense magnets and not due to a change in placement or some other matter. Blogger Mark Booth claims that Apple is using a new design of sleep/wake sensor in the third-gen iPad that is sensitive to polarity, and that cases which appear not to work with the new model are simply built with the incorrect polarity. In addition, Booth claims that Apple made the change due to complaints from some iPad 2 customers who found that their iPads would go to sleep simply from folding the Smart Cover flat behind the device. According to Booth, Apple modified the design specifications of its Smart Covers sometime in 2011, giving the updated units new model numbers, and fixing the accidental activation problem. For more information, see our Backstage article on the subject. [via The Verge]

Habitat and People, Mythical and Real
THERE IS ONLY ONE HOLLYWOOD in the world. Movies are made in London, Paris, Milan and Moscow, but the life of these cities is relatively uninfluenced by their production. Hollywood is a unique American phenomenon with a symbolism not limited to this country. It means many things to many people. For the majority it is the home of favored, godlike creatures. For others, it is a "den of iniquity" -- or it may be considered a hotbed of Communism or the seat of conservative reaction; a center for creative genius, or a place where mediocrity flourishes and able men sell their creative souls for gold; an important industry with worldwide significance, or an environment of trivialities characterized by aimlessness; a mecca where everyone is happy, or a place where cynical disillusionment prevails. Rarely is it just a community where movies are made. For most movie-goers, particularly in this country, the symbolism seems to be that of a never-never world inhabited by glamorous creatures, living hedonistically and enjoying their private swimming pools and big estates, attending magnificent parties, or being entertained in famous night clubs. The other symbols belong to relatively small groups of people.1
Of all the symbols, sex and wealth are the most important. Every Hollywood male is supposed to be a "wolf" and every Hollywood female a tempting object easily seduced. The movie fans, worshiping their heroes, believe this. The members of a church____________________

CC pitches 7.1 innings striking out 10 to end the 5-game skid. (Photo by Elsa/Getty Images) Boston Red Sox 1 — New York Yankees 4  CC leads the Yankees past the five-game losing streak in tonight's 4-1 win over the Boston Red Sox. The ace of a rotation is turned to when there is a losing streak. CC Sabathia, the ace of the Yankees staff, stepped to the challenge and dominated. Sabathia got the first two batters of the game to strikeout looking and would have four strikeouts through two innings. In the fifth inning, CC followed the strikeout to end the fourth with three more as he struck out the side. A pair of doubles in the seventh inning would end Sabathia's shutout but he got his 10th strikeout and would finish off that inning. In 7.1 innings, CC Sabathia allowed one run on six hits and tying a season-high 10 strikeouts. And for those concerned with the velocity Sabathia has been showing, he reached between 92-94 mph frequently tonight. The return of Mark Teixeira began in the second inning. A seven-pitch at-bat resulted in a walk to leadoff the inning. Vernon Wells would double over the head of centerfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. to put runners on second and third with no outs. Jayson Nix would cash-in and bring home the first run of the game with a single to left. Ichiro Suzuki would also come through with a chip shot to left field to bring one more and give the Yankees an early two-run lead. The free base-runner continues to benefit the Yankees. David Adams would start the fifth inning by getting hit by a pitch. A fielder's choice at second base would bring manager Joe Girardi out for a…discussion. The discussion with the second base umpire would end with the first ejection of the season for the Yankees manager. The return of Kevin Youkilis paid off in the fifth inning with a sharp single down the left field line. The lead runner, Ichiro, would score despite Chris Stewart ending the inning, caught trying to go to third base on the single. Three singles in the seventh, the last by Brett Gardner, would bring in the fourth run of the game and got back the run that Sabathia allowed. With a three-run lead, the Yankees turned to Mariano Rivera to bounce back from his first blown save on Tuesday. After the first out, Rivera would give up a pair of singles and put the tying-run at the plate. A strikeout of Mike Napoli and a ground out back to Rivera would end the game and notch his 19th save of the season. Kevin Youkilis got one hit in four at-bats in his return to the Yankees with a run batted in and two strikeouts. Mark Teixeira went hitless in three at-bats but walked and scored the first run of tonight's game.  Win – CC Sabathia (5-4) Loss – Jon Lester (6-2) Save – Mariano Rivera (19)  Notables Red Sox *Mike Napoli – 1 for 4, 2B, RBI (40) *Dustin Pedroia – 3 for 4, R, 2 2B Yankees *Ichiro Suzuki – 2 for 3, 2 R, RBI (9) *Kevin Youkilis – 1 for 4, RBI (8)  Current Yankees Record: 31-23  Get your Yankees Tickets from our friends at TiqIQ.

Yeah, battery life is doing well for me. Off the charger at 6:10am this morning, and I'm still going at 1:35am (20% life left). And I did a few LONG video chats today.
Turning off LTE makes battery life live LONG time too. Back in Toronto when I was running on Rogers LTE, battery was tough to get through the day - was fine if on WiFi for a lot of it, but ate through battery quicker when getting out of the house and straight on the network (pre battery update). As said I headed back to Winnipeg, where Rogers doesn't have LTE yet, my battery life went through the roof. Better than my 9900 for sure. With this update yesterday, definitely seems even better.
Good job BB. Keep the optimizations coming!!!

Kitty Kat Palace
We have 4 cats and they LOVE this!Read More
I like the levels and the edges on the top perches. I have 5 indoor cats. 2 of them like to run from and to it very quickly.. using it as a push off.. this is NOT srurdy enough for that. I put a weight set on the bottom. that helped. Only thing I miss from this is a hammock. they dont touch the rope and the toy came off fast.Read More

Sturdy, excellent for 5 large cats to play & rest on. This is our second unit and we're pleased with both.Read More
Easy setup, seems sturdy
This is the third cat tree from Armakat I've purchased, and I've been pleased with each one. The assembly instructions were clear and everything fit together the first time I tried. It doesn't wobble and the cats race up and down it all day. No complaints.Read More
LOVE it!
I bought this for my two kitties a little over a week ago. One is a 12+ pound domestic shorthair and the other is a 10 pound Maine Coon Cat. I wanted something to replace the empty bookshelf they had claimed as their window seat/ lookout tower (the bookshelf was too tippy when they jumped on it). However, while I wanted something fun and sturdy for them, I also wanted something that wasn't too obstrusive or large. This? Is perfect. I put the tree together myself in about an hour or so, though I did have a couple of false starts. (It pays to have a picture of the completed tree pulled up on the computer so you can refer to that in case you have questions. The instructions, while clear, were diagrams only) . The kitties were so intrigued that they started jumping on it and using the scratching posts as I was putting it together. (NOTE: They were more interested in the tree than the box it came in. THAT tells you how much they liked it right away.) In the last week they have scratched at it, slept on it, used it as a perch to look out the window. They've tackled each other on the highest platform and the thing barely wobbled. It's very sturdy. And yet, the material that covers it is soft and looks comfortable. A few notes: - I did NOT attach the string toys that came with it. My cats have a tendency to eat string and string toys, and I could see that as a disaster waiting to happen. The rope toy I did attach. I think that's fine for them. - O.com price-matched this for me and gave me free shipping when I found it for $10 less on another site. I just talked to customer service via instant message it was handled very quickly and nicely. Love Overstock!! - The directions advise you to tighten the screws on this tree after the first couple of days. You definitely should. The tree wasn't about to come apart or anything, but I could see how the platforms could get knocked askew by a rambunctious kitty or two if the screws weren't re-tightened after initially putting it together. In all, five stars!Read More
Super Sturdy
I have a total of five cats...2 very large, I needed something to help with the winter house-bound blues and STURDY!.....the instructions are good but I still ended up having to redo a couple times on the middle layer platform...pay attention to the holes and picture because they were covered by carpet...other than that is was pretty easy to put together, I did ALOT of searching for the right cat tree and I'm not dissapointed in my decision to by this one. It was definatley better that any found at my local stores, quality and alos important PRICE! I love the sturdiness of this most of all, the cats love it and are on it all the time. 5 paws up! )o(Read More
Great cat tower.
I got this cat tower about 3 weeks ago, and I am very satisfied. It was easy to put together (took me half an hour, maybe) and it seems very sturdy. I have two young cats, 14 pounds each, and they play on it (or sleep on it) all the time. Since my cats are on the big side, I was concerned that a lot of cat towers seem to have very small platforms and enclosed boxes. This tower is good, size wise. Each cat can curl up comfortably on one of the top platforms or in the enclosed box. And if they feel like sprawling, the box has a sort of porch in front of each doorway, so they have room to spread out. I have the tower in a corner so it can lean against a wall, but that's more because I don't want the cats to slide it around on my hardwood floor if they get carried away playing on it. It seems very stable and solid. The fleecy covering is nice; I was worried this would be cheap and flimsy since the tower is so much cheaper than the ones with carpet, but it is soft and the cats seem perfectly happy to sleep on it. I haven't noticed any wear on it yet. My cats like scratching on the posts, and they loved the toy on a string (until they chewed it apart and tried to eat the string, sigh...), but they have totally ignored the rope toy so far.Read More
I researched a lot of cat condos before I decided on this one. The brand Armarkat, looked to be the best based on reviews from many different websites. It arrived in a box that weighed about 48 lbs. It was packaged nicely and all of the pieces were in perfect condition upon arrival. The picture instructions were easy to understand and it took me around 20 minutes to put it together. The carpet is excellent quality and very soft to the touch. I really tightened the screws well while putting it together and once up, it is VERY sturdy and solid. I have a 15 month old cat who weighs about 10 lbs. and is a smaller size cat. She loves it! She fits just perfect on the perches and in the house. If she was much bigger though, it would be a tight fit. The ball attachment only lasted one day before it was ripped off by her. But no worries I hooked another toy there and she loves it. There is a funny glue/fish smell that I could smell when I stood next to it, but it has become less noticible after I aired it outside in the sunshine. It didn't seem to phase my cat at all. Overall for the price and quality, it is a fantastic buy! I highly recommend this product.Read More
Absolutely The Best.....
See, I got a new shelter kitty when my older kitty, sadly, passed away. My new kitty is about a year old and she is a sweety. Unfortunately, I had forgotten how much energy they have at this age She decided that my upholstered couch, chair, ottoman were her go-to play/scratch places... I have draped all the furniture and am one step away from those plastic furniture covers! Arrives the Armarkat 57-inch Cat Treehouse. Quickly, too. I assembled it myself in about 45 minutes....not bad for an , ah-hem, "mature" woman. The directions are easy to follow and I was impressed with the quality which is very good. My cat absolutely LOVES it ! She adopted it right away and it is now her go-to place. Lots of neat places to scratch and sit with her favorite toys. I placed it in front of the window and she is able to watch everything in her domain. Lots of nice sleeping places and, when she is feeling less than sociable, the little box shelter is the place for a quick cat-nap. All and all, one of better buys from Overstock....which has become my go-to place for just about everything. Thanks O !Read More

Several months ago i purchased one and my cat loves it but won't share. So now i have to buy a second one. Quality is very good. Very easy to put together. It is the perfect height too! Thank you. Barbara
good ratings and commits
I think this may be just perfect in front of a window where all cats like to sit. I need a place for 3 to 4 cats to stake out their space.
Armarkat seems to be one of the better cat tree products out there according to all the reviews I read.
I like cat products
Good product at an excellent price.
We just adopted two kittens. We live in a condo near a nature preserve and there are lots of coyotes around. I want the kitties to get enough exercise, even though they will be permanently indoor cats. I needed something that is the right size for the condo, well-made, and provides plenty of entertainment for the kitties as they grow up. I chose this initially because of the size, then I read all the positive reviews and that convinced me it is right for us. I'm super excited for it to arrive!
How many pieces are there to assemble?
Thank you for shopping with mcbub. This comes in 9 pieces, from the parts list. Have a great day.
Each of the pieces you see is a unique piece, so there are actually 13 pieces, not counting the rope and the screws. The instructions are pretty easy and the only problem I had was the one screw that connects the house-like piece to the board under it. It can be assembled in about 15 minutes.
14 including the scratching posts
Where is the treehouse made?
Hello happyinmadison, The White-wood Armarkat 57-inch Fleece-covered Sturdy Cat Treehouse is made in China. Please feel free to contact us again with any further questions. Thank you for shopping with us!
don't know
What is the height between perches? ae. How high does my cat have to jump from the first platform to the second platform with house?
Hello kmb25, unfortunately we were not able to obtain the information you requested. We will update the response if the information becomes available. We apologize for the inconvenience. Thank you for shopping with us and have a great day!
I have this set up for my two cats. The distance between the platforms varies from about 12 inches to 14 inches. My cats are both 12 and have no issues going up and down. They use all the levels going up (even using the top of the house to get to the lower perch), but usually jump from the level with the house to the floor. Unless your cats have health issues, they should have no problem using this cat tree.
Do the top two perches have edges on them to help keep sleeping cats from rolling off? (I notice they look thicker.)
The perches are level, although somewhat thicker.
Yes. They both have edges.
they do have edges big enough to keep the cats from falling off
When this is put together (properly) will it fit back into a corner? The corner of the 2nd shelf up from the bottom on mine sticks out preventing this & I've gone over & over the diagrams & pictures, my installation looks the same. My husband just keeps yelling at me that I did it wrong!
Some of the platforms do stick out, which may prevent the item from siting completely flush with a corner.
you can tilt the shelves though so you could manage it into a corner
What is the weight limit on this? I have cats 11 and 7 pounds, would they both be able to jump around and it still remain stable?
The weight limit of this pet toy is 40 pounds.

text: The Elgin Review Online Edition Your news source for the Elgin, NE area! 2015-07-03T14:10:16Z WordPress http://www.elginreview.com/?feed=atom lmorgan http://www.elginreview.com http://www.elginreview.com/?p=11404 2015-07-03T14:10:16Z 2015-07-03T14:10:16Z By Terri Seier Intern Wolfpack volleyball has been District Runner-Up for two consecutive years, but this year the volleyball girls are determined to make it to State Volleyball. However, they don't start working towards their goal during the season; no, it all starts now. On Wednesday, June 17, 2015, the volleyball girls had their first ever team camp this summer in Aurora with Shelli Mohnike. The camp's main focus was on serving and passing. "Fundamentals are key. It all starts with getting your serve over, or getting the pass to your setter. If the serve falls short it's a point for the other team, and without a good pass there can't be a good kill." Nicole Beckman, senior volleyball player, tells us. This is seen even in the season. Most people see the great kill but none of that can happen without the hard work of the back row, the fundamentals. When the camp started at nine o' clock in the morning it started simple, going through the proper serving form, like any other camp does. However, Shelli didn't stop with the form. She made sure to go around to each girl and give pointers and tips on how to improve. "She helps eliminate errors by working with the players slowly, and help them realize their mistakes so that they can improve. " Nickol Payne, sophomore volleyball player, said when asked what she liked about Shelli's teaching method. The camp didn't stop there. It went on to passing. Again Shelli showed the players proper form and went around giving advice to each girl individually. Shelli's tips seemed like little changes here and there, but when it came down to serving or receiving just by taking their guide arm down and "elbowing their brother" or turning their shoulders a centimeter more made a big enough difference to land the ball where they wanted on the court. "Shelli works on the little things and those little things are what matter." Jenna Parks, senior volleyball player, comments. Suddenly, the last hour of the camp was upon them and everything the Wolfpack volleyball team learned was put together in a series of drills. It started off with just a serving drill called Jail, which Coach Thiele hopes to use as a drill during the season. It was about not only being able to make a serve over the net and in, but also spotting the serve so that in a game situation the server can find the weakest link in the other team's serve-receive and land Ace serves all game. Another drill Shelli taught the volleyball team was Queen. This was a passing drill where the players had to serve-receive to the target and when they had a good pass they got a letter and the first player to spell Queen won. This helped with getting the players' footwork down and getting to the ball while also working on keeping it under control. The last drill for the day was a mixture of passing and serving. It worked on the forms that were learned. The concept of the drill was to have one serve-receiver on each court while one server served to them until they got an ace serve and moved on to the next court until they got a total of four ace serves. The morning may have started off rough when Terri Seier, senior volleyball player, overslept and had to hustle to Petersburg to catch the bus leaving, but it all worked out. The volleyball girls had a great time working with Shelli and can't wait to rejoin with her again on July 1 (today) to work on setting and hitting. Jenna Parks sums up every player's goal, that they are working so hard for now in one word — "State." ]]> 0 lmorgan http://www.elginreview.com http://www.elginreview.com/?p=11402 2015-07-03T14:07:10Z 2015-07-03T14:07:10Z A total of 58 alumni and guests gathered for the 72nd Annual St. Boniface Alumni Banquet at the Elgin Community Center on Saturday, June 27.

I'm a Lemon Ice King of Corona kind of guy, but I didn't object when a friend swerved over to the curb just south of the Farley Post Office. He hopped over to D'Aiuto's, a place known for its cheesecake, and soon returned to the car cradling giant ices. The muskmelon (available seasonally) was particularly delicious, boasting pieces of sweet fruit, just the right shade to convince me there was no artificial color.

PARIS — Although pressure is rising in France and other European nations for military intervention to stop the bloodshed in Syria, leaders are stymied by an unpleasant reality: Lessons learned from last year's NATO operation in Libya suggest that taking down President Bashar al-Assad would be impossible without large-scale involvement by the United States.
The urge to do something is particularly strong in France, which has historical ties to Syria and whose then-President Nicolas Sarkozy rallied the United States and other allies around his proposal to bomb government forces in Libya. Moreover, France is the country where the idea of a "right to intervene" to save lives abroad was born, and where it has since expanded in the eyes of many into a "duty to intervene."
