Allen's son released from hospital
Posted by Gary Washburn Globe Staff November 29, 2009 05:24 PM
Celtics guard Ray Allen said his son Walker was released from a Boston-area hospital about an hour ago and is at home resting comfortably. Walker, 2, suffers from childhood diabetes and Ray said his son was taken to the hospital after getting nauseated on Thanksgiving.
"He's been going through it and the whole time he's managed to keep his spirits," Allen said before the Celtics-Heat game. "When I was there to make the plane and I only left because once he got up and I had him listening to music on my iPod and he was up. I just wanted to make sure he was all right before I left."
Allen flew to Miami Saturday evening only after his son began to feel more energetic.

Israeli PM promises harsh response to deadly attacks
Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has promised a harsh response to two stabbing attacks which left a soldier and a woman dead.
Mr Netanyah said terror "was being directed at all parts of the country."
ITV News' Middle East Correspondent Geraint Vincent reports on a deadly day in Israel:
Israeli Defence Forces confirm soldier's death
Israel Defence Forces spokesman Peter Lerner has confirmed that a soldier, named as Sergeant Almog Shiloni, has died in hospital after being stabbed earlier today at a train station in Tel Aviv.
Israeli soldier stabbed in Tel Aviv dies from his injuries
An Israeli soldier who was stabbed at a Tel Aviv train station earlier today has died, ITV News has learned.
A suspect was arrested at the scene and is currently under police interrogation.
Israeli police said a woman in her mid-20s was killed while two other people were wounded during a further stabbing attack in the West Bank today.
One dead after stabbing attacks targeting Israelis
Attackers identified as Palestinians carried out two separate stabbing attacks in Israel today which left one woman dead and a soldier injured.
The female victim in her mid 20s died after being stabbed at a bus stop - two other people were also hurt. The Israeli soldier was stabbed in a separate attack at a train station in Tel Aviv.
ITV News' Middle East Correspondent Geraint Vincent reports:
Israeli woman killed, two wounded in West Bank attack
Israeli police said a woman in her mid-20s was killed while two other people were wounded during a stabbing attack in the West Bank.
The woman was killed when a man stepped out of a car at a bus stop in front of the Alon Shvut settlement, then stabbed three people before he was shot by a security guard. The attacker is in a serious condition.
'Israeli girl killed' after stabbing attack in West Bank
A teenage girl has been killed in a stabbing attack in the West Bank in which the suspected Palestinian attacker was shot, according to Israel's national rescue service.
The girl was stabbed along with two other Israelis at a bus stop outside the West Bank settlement of Alon Shvut. The attacker was shot and wounded by a security guard at the scene.
Israel Defense Forces Spokesman Peter Lerner said on Twitter it was a "sad day".
Three Israelis stabbed during attack in the West Bank
Three Israelis have reportedly been stabbed during an attack at the Alon Shvut junction in the Gush Etzion area of the West Bank, just hours after a soldier was left in a "grave condition" when he was also stabbed in a Tel Aviv train station.
The suspected terrorist who carried out the stabbing in the West Bank settlement was shot by a security guard at the scene.
Stabbed Israeli soldier's condition is 'grave'
An Israeli soldier who was stabbed by a Palestinian in a Tel Aviv train station is in a "grave condition", a hospital spokesman said.
The suspect was arrested at the scene and is currently under police interrogation.
The attack comes after the fatal shooting of an Israeli Arab by a policeman early on Saturday in the town of Kfar Kana, which gave new impetus to the ongoing tensions.
Arab citizens make up some 20% of Israel's population. They enjoy full citizenship but share the ethnicity and culture of the Palestinians in the occupied territories.
They have long complained of discrimination and often identify with Palestinian nationalism, rather than Israeli.

Israeli minister: Palestinians should use separate buses
Palestinian students attack British diplomat's car
Dozens of Palestinian students attacked the car of a British diplomat with metal rods, as he arrived to give a speech at a West Bank university.
The consul general, Sir Vincent Fean, was due to speak at the Palestinian university of Birzeit but the event was cancelled due following the incident.
A representative for the British Consulate in Jerusalem confirmed the incident. They said: "The British Consul General, Sir Vincent Fean, visited Birzeit University today. His intention had been to engage in an open dialogue with the student community about the UK's policies in the Middle East.
"Sir Vincent had hoped to underline Britain's deep commitment to the creation of a Palestinian state, and the urgency of progress on the peace process in 2013."
"Sadly, such a dialogue was not possible on this occasion. Sir Vincent remains absolutely committed to building his relationship with the Palestinian student community, and hopes to have the opportunity to pursue this dialogue in future," the British representative added.

2014 Empowerment Grant Recipients
The Global Women's Leadership Network is pleased to announce Elenita San Roque, CEO of the Association of Asian Confederation of Credit Unions (Thailand) and Kristi Lozano, Financial Education Specialist at San Mateo Credit Union (USA) as winners of the 2014 "Empowerment Grant" that will be used to improve the financial status of women in their communities. In addition to a financial award, each of these women will receive technical support, expertise and guidance from their Global Women Network peers worldwide.
San Roque will work with the Paglaum Multi-Purpose Cooperative in the Philippines to establish a Business Development Center that will play a crucial role in advancing women members' entrepreneurial and leadership skills as well as access to markets and information for micro and small enterprise developments (MSEs). Lozano's project aims to increase the financial and leadership skills of female high school credit union members and assist in their preparation to matriculate into a college or university.
Each of the scholars was asked to design a concept (see below) that would increase access to credit, loans, savings, and leadership opportunities for women in their communities. Network members voted on the proposals and World Council staff evaluated the potential projects on several criteria relating to the strength of the project, the financial needs of the project, opportunity for Network membership involvement and potential value to the community.
San Roque and Lozano will provide quarterly reports to the Network and include regular updates on how Global Women mebers may get involved with their projects directly. For additional questions about the projects, please contact Network Director Calyn Ostrowski at email@example.com.

My husband and I had gone through at least seven realtors before meeting Julie Reyes. We were looking for a house for five years, but we could not find a realtor who actually listened to our needs without pushing their own agendas. Once we found Julie, we knew that we were one step closer to our home buying experience. She is extremely professional, very responsive and if she doesn't know something or is unclear, she doesn't pretend to know. Julie is not about getting a sale, she is more concern about the long term financial stability of the people she serves and whether or not they will be able to maintain the house hey purchase. I have dealt with realtors who tried to push is in buying a house that we could not afford or trying to put us in neighborhoods that we did not like. Julie met all of our specifications and found us our home within 2 months. I often wonder when she sleeps because she is constantly doing research, sending emails, and making phone calls on our behalf. What was amazing is after we purchased our condo, our relationship with Julie didn't end. I recommend Julie Reyes 110% to anyone. She listens and understand the needs of her clients, which is what helped us. She is honest, helpful, and always have great encouragement on those days when you feel like your dream hime is nowhere insight.
Tracey Ann Guillaume, 10/14
Dear Tracey, Thank you so much for your generous words, and your trust in me to find a home meeting both you and Gary's needs! The two of you are truly a delightful and grounded couple. It was truly a pleasure to work with both of you in finding a home where you will have the comfort in knowing that Abigale has a safe and inviting neighborhood to grow up in. It is a beautiful home in a great neighborhood – I'm sure the three of you will be blessed with many happy memories there. I look forward to working with you and Gary again in a few years when you are ready to either expand in a new home {pitta patta :-) or make an investment purchase. In the meantime, please feel free to contact me at any time for any of your real estate needs. Sincerely, Julie

Thumbs up for the article.
And indeed there's been much discussed about the cut on the forums. But the article nicely sums up what I think most of the players I know are thinking. I can't speak on behalve of anyone on here, but the RL friends I know that are awaiting this game all where surprised to see a company being open and outfront to their future customers. Then again all of them had already cancelled their subscription to the other know PvP focussed MMO that was announced promissing heaven on mmo earth, so they'd rather have it this way then the other way round.
I still got my collectors pre-order and looking forward to an official launch date soon!

I agree with the cuts, as well. What Mythic has planned for Warhammer is MASSIVE. There will still be a lot to the game.
However, my one fear is that Mythic could end up pulling a Blizzard and spend two years hyping all the free content they have added when almost all of it is the stuff that was cut just before launch. While launching the cut cities back into the game in pairs makes sense, there should be a LOT of new content unrelated to the cut features in those patches if Mythic is going to ever hype all the "free" content they have added.

I'm a big fan of Mythic's work with DAoC. I played that game from 2002-2005 before quitting, and on and off since then. I think their decision to tell us they were cutting the cities and classes was a good choice, however, the choice to cut the cities and classes I think was a bad choice. Instead, they should have pushed back the game until they could put all of the cities in the game in a polished state. The classes don't matter so much, because there are other classes to play. But the cities are integral to the lore and without the race appropriate cities, it would be hard to stay immersed in the game for RPers who play races other than Empire and Chaos. It'd be like WoW only having Ogrimmar and Stormwind at launch. The non-human and Orc races would feel neglected and without a home. For this reason, and this reason alone, Mythic should postpone the game until they can make the game complete. Make no mistake, they are releasing an incomplete, while polished, game if they don't include the main city for every race they put in the game. They could alternately make the game complete by taking the races away that don't have a city and introduce the races and the cities together at a later time. That would make the most sense lore wise, which is all I really care about.
Save the cities, save the lore. Lose the cities, and you lose the lore.

Although I like the general tone and idea of the article, I do have to take exception to this:
Mark has said that the four capital cities and four classes were cut because they weren't enough fun or on par with Mythic's expectations and standards. Shouldn't we, as gamers, applaud the move rather than shun it and play something that the game's developer's feel just isn't up to snuff?
Why couldn't Mythic spend the time (aka money) to make these cities and other classes fun? It comes off quite fanboyish.

lets let them get addicted to WAR now and then when WotLK releases they wont even bother. i could be way off, but it seems like a good move. We need something new, that is fun and refreshing, its long past due.

Until release we will not know if Mythic made the right choice or not. On paper it sounds logical to do this but we'll just have to wait and see if it pans out right.

The reason they aren't going to do so before launch is undoubtedly very simple: Mr. Publisher. The publisher is the company that's putting up the money, and when the publisher gives you a final launch date, you have no choice but to do whatever it takes to make the launch happen. If that means temporarily cutting some content in order to ensure that the rest is up to snuff, then that's what you do.

OK you can say that now. But there would have been a lot more people pissed off again if they pushed the game back again. It would have been the same rant again this game going to fail because they delayed it again. The gaming community has become this way if they can't get it the way they want it they rant about it. If they can't get it in a timely matter they whine about it. If a gaming company is honest about something and says this will not be in the game they cry and curse about it. The gaming community have become these little crying kids that impossible don't exist to them that everything they want should be in a game. But I do believe the route that Mythic has taken is a good one finish polishing everything you got and deliver it another hold would left a lot more people with big doubts about the game.

Although i am disappointed with 3 or 4 classes per race, i do admire the way they handled it.
The fact that they removed things that did not meet a standard of quality that they wanted, and were open and honest about the situation instead of leaving us in the dark or allowing people to create characters that are a class that is sub par and letting them find that out for themselves and deal with it, is the proper way to do things.
At the same time, i don't mind the cookie cutter classes that can be available to multiple races that many other games use either. I think humans are the ultimate race and will always play them in games due to my preference, and being limited in my other choices because of that makes me a little sad. But as always, i will learn to deal with downside of playing a human as i do in every game, i just wish there wasn't always a downside to being human, lol.
I know they are putting alot of work into making great classes for WAR, and hopefully they will do a good job and that will make me want to play the other races and classes after my first human character. It's not as if i refuse to play anything besides a human, only that all things equal i will always choose a human.

I appreciate it that they didn't try to pull one over on us. Told us the truth.
I still don't have high hopes for this game but that is because of my WFRP, WFB and WH40K history (many years...started back in the day with Rogue Trader).
There is alot of potential with this game but I don't think they set it up to benefit from that spirit of Warhammer. I think this game is going to hinge on the PvP aspect. It's set up to focus on it. When we all get bored with the same fighting areas, another city or two will be released to give new ground to fight over with new quests.
This game seems to focus heavily on Guilds also. That is where I'm resting my hope (the little I have). The tools guilds are given will create the player character depth if the guilds use the tools in an imaginitive way.
I hope for the best for this game, though and will be trying it out.
Again we see the same thing happening where <insert game company> announces a release date and screws themselves. If they waited till they had a meeting of all departments and had a good analyst then they might of figured out they would need more time and could then release a date for launch and be happy that if anything comes up that is bad within that time limit they could still fix it.
Now they put the foot in the mouth and with that they are now screwing the customer. Taking mid development content out that was already stated for release does not help with bargaining.

Whilst honesty at this stage is important, for them to have had so long and only realise (even now) that it wasn't going to happen is a concern. Either that or their honesty was a little delayed ...
The other issue is that they have now put enormous pressure on themselves - if they are going to cut so much they had better be sure that their launch is one of the smoothest in recent history (maybe not all that hard given recent history).
I can't imagine many people giving them much slack if they launch a third of the game they originally intended, and they encounter major issues at launch.
Hope for the best and expect the worst - that way at least you can never be disappointed, just pleasantly surprised.

"Mark chose the former and, from a glance at the forums, he cost Mythic some good will, though certainly more good will would have been lost had he chosen the latter. Right?"
True , but i disagree with the "loss of good will". I think their honesty and not wanting to screw people over for subs has won them more credit with the MMO community.

Aye, this is part of the marketing "tactic" that another poster alluded to previously.
The other tactic is, 'overextend then pullback' - if they knew and announced from the beginning they'd only be releasing a 2 city game people would have thought that was too small. But talk up an 8 city game to drum up interest and pre-orders, then come out all sheepish and apologetic before launch and play the 'well at least he's honest' card, and people think you're a hero and don't even notice that it's a small 2 city game.
What if they knew 3 years ago they'd never be able to have all the features they talked about, but kept hypeing them anyway to gain interest and orders?

Cutting the 4 classes. cool. I have no problem with that. Classes can allways be patched in at a later state. It's not that WAR have few classes anyways.
But cutting the 4 cities is a lot worse, cities are important for the feel of a game, and it is also important for the PvP aspect, it makes the endgame a lot more intresting. No, to me it sounds like they are getting forced by a certain publisher to release the game to early, same thing as happened to AoC and Vanguard. I rather wait another 6 months and get the full game than having another game release to early.
And is it just the cities or big zones around them that have been cut? How big will the game be at launch? Many new games suffer cause it is to few zones. Cutting down on content a few months before launch will not make that better.
I still have hopes for WAR but I dont trust the publisher.

It seems we have come to the point where we cant even hold devolopers to their word and promises because apperently it is beyond reasonable.
There is nothing about having 4 classes added post launch that sounds appealing, how poorly designed were these classes that they couldnt be salvaged they had to be totally scrapped 2 months before launch, How do you pump so much energy into advertising how great your class system will be, 4 archetypes and 24 unique classes and then at the last minute change it all around and expect people not to be furious about it. Removing an interactive raid city is understanble, but a class, that something you should have completly ironed out before you announce it.
Adding in the 4 missing classes after launch as if they are a prize is not appealing, i am going to have to shell out more money for an expansion to get features that were promised years before. And the content will finally be launched and a bunch of people start re rolling flooding the classes just to experience them.
Sure some people will applaud them for their decision but i am not one of them, i read articles like this as just a fancy way of saying the game isnt finished but we are launching it anyway. Scaling back content too meet the launch date is not quality over quantity, its moving the goal post, just because they announced ahead of time that we should be prepared for a post launch patch fest, doesnt change that fact.
I am one of the people who decided to cancel their preorder, while i enjoy the beta, i simply plan on waiting until all those post launch additions make their way into the game, whether it takes one month, two months or two years. I refuse to pay a company while they finish their product.
And for the record, i understand a mmo is supposed to be an ongoing product, and features are supposed to be continously added, my definition of a finished mmo at launch, is when the game comes out including all the key features they advertised the entire time the game was announced. Warhammer has cut too many things in my opinion that have me believe i am buying the same game, a few things they announced, a few things they havent announced yet. So i wil sit back, wait for the launch, watch th eprogress of the game, and read the patch notes carefully and when the game is at the point i feel is worth paying for i will go and pick it up.

I'm not buying the "we're cutting 4 to give you 2 great ones"... The bottom line is they are running out of time and have to cut scope. I would highly doubt that they are putting more time into the other 2 cities, it's more likely the case that pulling the 4 saves them time they need to just finish the game.
Oh and about "post launch": WoW was going to have player housing "post launch"... where is that?? WoW also was going to have "hero classES" post launch, several years later in a paid expansion pack they are introducing... *1* hero class. So those of you waiting for "post launch", don't hold your breath.

Best practices and design patterns for app license checking
You are responsible for creating the app license checks and then enforcing license restrictions within your apps. Here are some general best practices worth following.
Last modified: March 09, 2015
Applies to: apps for Office | apps for SharePoint | Office 2013 | Office 365 | Office Add-ins | SharePoint Add-ins | SharePoint Foundation 2013 | SharePoint Server 2013
The names "apps for Office" and "apps for SharePoint" are changing to "Office Add-ins" and "SharePoint Add-ins". During the transition, the documentation and the UI of some Office and SharePoint products and Visual Studio tools might still use the terms "apps for Office" and "apps for SharePoint". For details, see New name for apps for Office and SharePoint.
For security reasons, we strongly recommended that you place the code that performs the app license check somewhere outside the reach of potential tampering. For example, you can limit your app's security exposure by using server-side code to query the Office Store verification web service, instead of performing the license check client-side.
For apps for Office, you are required to use server-side code to query the Office Store verification web service.
For apps for SharePoint, if you are hosting your app pages on SharePoint, you can use the SharePoint web proxy to make JavaScript calls to the Office Store verification service. However, for security reasons we strongly recommend that you only use server-side code to query the Office Store verification web service.
Add license checks only at those points in your app where you want to take some action based on whether the user has a valid license or other license information. For example, when the user launches the app, or when the user attempts to access certain app features that you want to control based on app license information.
For apps for SharePoint, do not perform app license checks on every page of your app. Constant querying of the SharePoint deployment for the app license token is rarely necessary, and can lead to your app performance being throttled.
For apps with a perpetual unlimited user license, cache until the license token expires. For apps with a multiuser license, either trial or perpetual, cache per session because user assignment can change.
Make sure the production version of your app does not accept test licenses.
When you finish testing your app and are ready to move it to production, make sure you add code to the license checks in your app so that the app no longer accepts test licenses. After you pass the app license token to the verification service's VerifyEntitlementToken method, you can use the VerifyEntitlementTokenResponse object returned by that method to access the app license properties. For test app licenses, the IsTest property returns true and the IsValid property returns false.

LONDON — In a turnaround that left Michael Phelps and his teammates in stunned silence Sunday night, the 400-meter freestyle relay gold medal that the U.S. had in its grasp slipped away in a late surge by the final French swimmer.
Ryan Lochte, swimming the anchor leg for the U.S., touched .45 of a second later than Yannick Agnel. The Russian team won bronze, ahead of the Australians, heavily favored going into the race with their self-described "weapons of mass destruction team."
It was redemption for Phelps, who had failed to medal in his first race on Saturday but was easily the fastest American in Sunday's relay. It was a reality check for Lochte, who was enjoying his trajectory over the rival who has long overshadowed him. And it was also payback, for the French, who in one of the most thrilling versions of this event, in the 2008 Games, lost their own race in the final strokes to the U.S. team.
"It is very frustrating that we lost but this is going to be something that's going to motivate us and motivate the guys that are going to step over in our shoes the next couple years and hopefully we do get this race back," Phelps said.
It was the first silver medal that Phelps has won in four Olympics and increased his overall medal count to 17, one behind the record held by gymnast Larisa Latynina of the Soviet Union. He now has 14 golds, one silver and two bronze. He won't add to the total today because his next individual event, the 200 butterfly, swims preliminaries and semifinals today.
On Sunday, Phelps seemed to look back at the scoreboard several times as if in disbelief at the results — 3:09.93 for the French, 3:10.38 for the U.S.
Although he traditionally leads off, Phelps swam the second leg Sunday. Sprinter Nathan Adrian went first, and handed Phelps a lead. The Baltimore swimmer more than protected it, posting the fast split of the team, 47.15 seconds.
Phelps said he asked to be moved from leading off so he could follow Adrian.
"I'd been practicing going off Nathan's relay exchanges" in training camp, Phelps said. "Coach [Gregg] Troy asked me where I wanted to go, I said, 'Where's Nathan going to go, I want to go behind him.'
"Nathan swam a great opening leg, putting us out into open water. I just tried to give us even more open water," he said.
Phelps handed the lead off to Cullen Jones, a Beijing relay teammate, who left it in the hands of his good friend and Olympic Village roommate, Lochte.
But then, Lochte's path to emerge from Phelps' shadow hit a roadblock. Lochte already had swum the 200-meter freestyle semifinal earlier in the evening, and seemed to run out of steam as Agnel crept closer and closer until he touched the wall first.
"We were all screaming, screaming, 'Touch the wall,' to Lochte, Jones said. He did, but second, and remained in the water, as his teammates clustered around the starting block mostly in silence. Eventually Lochte emerged, and Phelps, who was receiving hugs and handshakes from the French swimmers, embraced him.
Lochte said he thinks he was a little over-excited swimming a non-familiar race — he generally races in the 200-meter category — and didn't pace himself.
"We had our best four guys and we went out there to win it and we came up short," Lochte said. "I'm kind of bummed because when we get on the blocks, we always want to win."
His teammates refused to criticize him. "I already told him," Jones said, "it's OK."
"It's a tough loss," Adrian said, before reversing himself and saying it wasn't necessarily that. "We frame it as we won a silver medal."
The relay capped an action-packed night on this, the second day of the Olympic swimming competition.
Setting an American record, Allison Schmitt of North Baltimore Aquatic Club won a silver medal swimming the 400-meter freestyle in 4:01.77 minutes. She hung tough with the winner, Camille Muffat, from start to finish, with the French swimmer setting an Olympic record with her 4:01.45 finish.

This is the time of our lives
I graduated college in 2010, but the learning didn't stop there. I've enjoyed the past few years as things have really come together. I have become the most physically fit that I've ever been in my entire life, and I'm not stopping! I'm striving to continue reaching new heights with my fitness. Additionally, I recently made a transition from my first post-college job, down a new path in a role that is much better suited for my long-term career goals. Through this experience, I learned how important it is to do what will make you happy versus allowing yourself to get stuck doing what you think you *should* be doing. I'm a goal oriented person who pursues what I want in life. I'm not perfect, there will always be something to work on or some new goal to set. Overall I'm in a great place right now, and I'm ready to find a man who I can enjoy my life with, but I'm also not in a rush. I want to feel like my significant other and I enhance each others lives versus bringing unnecessary drama and doubt into them. I am looking for someone who enjoys being active and exploring (whether it be for a hike, a jog, a meal, or just walking around a fun area like Venice Beach). I do value staying in when I need to recharge, I'm just not a home body. I'm also looking for someone who has a career and takes his health and fitness seriously. Bonus points if you're a USC or Steelers fan!

Women comprise the majority of Medical Records Directors in the United States. Individuals in this line of work make around $16.24 per hour on average. The bottom of the pay range sits near $11.69 per hour, and the top verges on $24.71. The majority of Medical Records Directors claim high levels of job satisfaction. While one-fourth report receiving no health benefits, the greater part do receive medical coverage, and a majority have dental, as well. This report is based on responses to the PayScale salary survey.

Medical records directors typically work in a hospital, clinic, or other health care facility. They are responsible for compiling, processing, and maintaining medical records for their facility's patients, making sure the files contain all needed information and are correct and secure. In all tasks, these directors must follow the standards and protocols of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and of their facility to protect patient confidentiality. Medical records directors must know and use the health care industry's standardized numerical coding system.Read More...
Medical records directors may hire, supervise, and manage personnel to ensure the medical record system meets medical, administrative, legal, and facility requirements. Additionally, these directors may serve as a go-between for physicians and members of their team to make sure records are completed as quickly as possible. Medical records directors need to keep track of information removed from charts and make sure it is returned, as well as develop and enact policies and processes for keeping track of, filing, and pulling information.
Most medical records directors have at least an associate's degree in medical records management or health information management; many facilities require a bachelor's degree or even a master's degree. Almost all employers require experience in coding and/or classification technology, as well as relevant certification. Medical records directors typically work full time during regular business hours, although some evenings and weekends may be required depending on the facility.
Job skills reported by Medical Records Directors are limited. Those who have experience with Medical Coding, Medical Records, and Electronic Medical Records can expect to be compensated well for these skills. Skills that seem to negatively impact pay include Electronic Medical Records, Medical Records, and Medical Coding. Competency in Medical Coding frequently indicates knowledge of Medical Records.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience is an important factor influencing the compensation of Medical Records Directors. Workers in their first five years can expect to earn $33K, but people who have been around for five to 10 years earn a noticeably bigger sum of $40K. Medical Records Directors see a median salary of $43K after reaching one to two decades on the job. Big financial gains seem to result from working for more than two decades; veterans in this group report earning $51K on average.

insulation question
Hi Everyone,
Am about to lay footings and actually get this oven started after all these years, I am looking forward to the construction.
I have a question with regards to the dimensioning the instructions talk about 1x3 inch Fornobravo insulation blanket. What I was thinking of doing was actually having 2x3 inch insulation blankets and then also adding approximately 2 inches of vermiculite between the blankets and the housing enclosure.
Anyone got any thoughts on if this is a good idea/ bad idea?
Re: insulation question
From all that I read on this forum, you cannot have too much fun and you can not have too much insulation! But I would do the blankets and then pour vermiculite on top of, and all around the oven.
Good luck on your journey and enjoy your build!
Re: insulation question
Thanks for the info I will have about 2 inches between the 2 layers of insulation blanket and the outside wall side to side and have more space front to back I will also have about a foot between the top of the oven and the roof I will be building so I am going to basically do the blankets and then fill the rest of the housing with vermiculite, my only concern is that to do with the weight on the dome.
Is vermiculite light or heavy the pictures I have seen give me a indication that its light but have never seen or held it in real life.
Re: insulation question
It is very light.
Re: insulation question
If you can't access vermiculite you can alternatively use perlite, which is a slightly better insulator.
Re: insulation question
Perlite it will be then I want to use products that will give maximum effect insulation wise so if Perlite is better then vermiculite then perilite it is.
Re: insulation question
As for the weight, its basically superlight foam.. 100litres was around 2kg or so .. from memory..
Re: insulation question
Hi Ikhan,
See my build #2. I used aluminum window screen around my oven with 4"-6" spacing. No need to put expensive insulation in the corners where it doesn't do any good.
Any of the dry-fill insulation will settle over time, in an enclosure, so build up the top layer or place something to restrain it from flowing down hill. Also, use fg house insulation to block off between studs or any place you don't want loose insulation to migrate. Perlite and vermiculite will find its way through a small void and drain out if you are not careful.
I put perlcrete and rockwool around oven #1 then poured perlite over the top of that. Oven #2 has FB ceramic blanket insulation and loose vermiculite.

In this clip he talks about the whole scene, how he didn't know anyone was filming, and why he did what he did. After seeing the clip of him giving away everything but his pants, socks, and t-shirt he became my favorite player (regardless of his fantasy baseball impact). After watching this clip I think I might go get a Matt Kemp jersey. Hopefully MLB is taken notice and will realize that is players like this that they need to be promoting as much as possible. He is a credit to the Dodgers and to the game.

Elachi Alert Weekend
Elachi Alert Weekend
Attention Captains, the Elachi are pouring into the Alpha Quadrant from previously undiscovered Iconian space gates in order to abduct helpless people! As reports grow about what the Elachi have been doing with their captives, we need every Captain at the ready to help stop the Elachi.
For a limited time only, the Elachi Alert queued event will return to Star Trek Online. From Thursday December 11th at 10AM PST to Monday December 15th at 10AM PST, close these doors to subspace and receive bonus mark rewards.
A joint fleet has gathered here to stop them. The fleet consists of science ships that have disabled their weaponry in order to divert all available resources to disabling the gate. We'll need to protect them from the Elachi until they finish their work. Remember that the science vessels efficiency will drop as they lose crew members to the Elachi. Defend the joint fleet from the Elachi in order to ensure their success. Be careful of Elachi harvesters who'll abduct everyone who can disable the space gate.

Am I to understand that this older, cheaper flip phone can actually read him texts that he receives? Or is it just send-only unless he finds a sighted person to read him his texts?
Plenty of them around, for example: http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_a732-1235.php

I've had an ectopic pregnancy in the past. Am I at risk for having another one if I become pregnant again?
- Gina
In general, once you have an ectopic pregnancy, your chance of having another one is about 15% — but it depends on your particular situation, the cause of the original ectopic, and how it was treated.
Many women who had an ectopic pregnancy in the past will later have a normal pregnancy. You'll want to talk with your doctor about your particular circumstances.

2002 BMW 325Ci Q&A
2002 BMW 325Ci Question: Whistling in the Brakes
When the car starts, there is no noise but after a few seconds of driving the whistling begins. Stops when we brake and as soon as the brake is released, it starts again. When we stop and turn off the car, there is a slow release and whistling sound for a few seconds. What am I fixing now? Just went through all of the air conditioning and over heating problems for a cool $7,000 in repairs. - cherbot3000
Answer 1
the "whistling" noise is coming from a broken Crankcase Vent Valve located under the intake manifold. As you hit the gas and the engine breathes in air it leaks in through the broken vent valve and causes the whistling. It is a common problem and shouldnt cost too much to get fixed. - importperformancenc

COLUMBUS, Ohio - More than one-third of young adults who reported being victims of dating violence as teenagers had two or more abusive partners, a new study suggests.
The study involved 271 college students who recalled dating violence - including physical, sexual and psychological abuse - from ages 13 to 19.
Overall, nearly two-thirds of both men and women reported some type of abuse during their teenage years, which falls in line with other studies.
But it was surprising how many teen victims had two or more abusive partners, said Amy Bonomi, lead author of the study and associate professor of human development and family science at Ohio State University.
"For about one in three teens who were abused, it wasn't just one bad boyfriend or girlfriend. It may have been at least the start of a trend," Bonomi said.
The same patterns were not seen in similar population-based studies of adults, who tend to report abuse by a single partner, she said.
Well more than half of all teen victims reported multiple occurrences of abuse, with roughly 15 percent reporting 20 or more instances of some types of abuse.
"For most teens, dating violence is rarely reported as an isolated incident," said Bonomi, who is also an affiliate with the Group Health Research Institute in Seattle.
The study appears online in the journal BMC Public Health.
Among both males and females, psychological abuse - such as yelling, swearing, insults, controlling behavior, put-downs and name-calling - was the most common type of abuse.
One argument that violence researchers often hear is that behaviors like name-calling and insults aren't serious enough to be called abuse. But that's not true, Bonomi said.
"Studies in adults have shown that psychological abuse alone can be damaging to health," she said. She is currently studying whether the same is true for adolescents.
For this study, 2

Intel announces new specialised Atom processor
New Atom-powered smartphones and in-car entertainment systems could be heading our way towards the end of the year, says Intel.
It's all very boring on the surface, but the company has announced four versions of processors and two new system controller hub additions to the company's offerings around the Atom processor Z5xx series, based on the processor used in many of the netbooks available on the market today.
Like Qualcomm's Snapdragon chipset, Intel is hoping that the new offering will allow it to power more and more devices as we all start to demand more from our mobile "computers".
Intel says the new products will be designed for use in in-car infotainment devices, media phones, eco-technologies and other industrial-strength applications.
"With the addition of these new products, we can bring the benefits of Intel processors to new applications, devices and customers who develop products used in unconstrained thermal environments with low-power in mind", said Doug Davis, vice president, digital enterprise group and general manager, embedded and communications group, Intel.
Intel see the move as ensuring its future: "Meeting the needs of embedded environments and new market segments will play a large role in delivering the connectivity and functionality necessary as the number of devices connecting to the embedded Internet is expected to grow to an estimated 15 billion devices by 2015".
The new products will be available to companies in the second quarter, so look out for product announcements after that.
We will keep you posted.
