Wow thats strange. I haven't seen this yet but good to know a fix if it does happen.
There's a Jailbreak bug that affects Springboard (the Home Screen system on iPhone and iPad) and causes your icons to go fuzzy and disappear. Depending on which version of iOS 4 you're on, and which Jailbreak tool you used (limera1n, greenpois0n, redsn0w, etc.) you may or may not experience it or be able to replicate it, but if you do we have a simple if temporary fix for you after the break.
Though the disappearing/fuzzy icon bug isn't much more than a annoyance -- you can still use the icon in question -- is also quite easy to go around.
You can tell if you have the problem simply by swiping quickly from Home Screen to Home Screen. If you you have the bug, some icons will disappear or turn fuzzy. To fix it, just swipe some more and they'll eventually re-render.
Again, this bug is not incapacitating for your iPhone but it is a bit disconcerting when you see one of your icons has disappeared. (Luckily the name remains under the icon so you can still figure out which app it is).
This bug seems to have started after iOS 4.0 came into effect. We will have to see if it is still in effect in iOS 4.3.
- Your icons will appear fuzzy and difficult to see.
- Swiping rapidly through Home Screens
- Keep swiping until the icons re-render properly.
- If you're desperate, restore your iPhone and re-Jailbreak with a more recent tool
If you've had this problem let us know which version of iOS you're using and which tool you used to Jailand come up with any better fixes, let us know in the comments!

Bugs: Disappearing icons [Jailbreak]
I cannot reproduce this no matter how hard I try. Maybe it's more of a problem with a specific tweak than the general jailbreak.
I agree, I have never seen this before and I have been jailbroken on iPhone 4 since Jailbreakme was out. Currently running iOS 4.1 jailbroken with redsnow.
Same here on a 3GS iOS 4.2.1, jailbroken with PwnageTool. I have many many tweaks installed, but have never seen this happening and can't reproduce it.
Maybe those who can, should write up their specs, JB tool they used and installed Cydia packages to narrow it down.
(By the way, cute illustration.)
I have jail broken my iPhone4 on 4.2.1 with greenposi0n and I have no camera, no calculator and (lol) no App Store icons. Anyone else having this problem?
Jailbroke iOS4,4.1 and 4.2.1 never seen it.
Just happened on my iPad & the fix didn't fix it. No packages loaded other than those already loaded in Cydia when JB'd with GPoi. latest. RC6?
just restored & now re-loading.
Even Cydia disappeared & many other probes including all Apps in miniature size etc. Cannot re-spring. Frozen in portrait mode.
If this bug requires multiple home screens, I'll never see it because I only have one. I use Folder Enhancer to achieve this.
Off topic kinda but I love Folder Enhancer!
Same happened to me, but my iPod Touch 4 on iOS 4.0 was not jailbroken. This issue has been resolved for me in iOS 4.3 beta.
My phone isn't jailbroken, but I've experienced the disappearing icons.
J/B my iPhone 4 is starting to sound like a wast of time to me now.
Apps going missing, iBooks not working.
iPhone 4 + jailbreak = iphone 4 with windows xp/vista headache
On 4.2.1 JB with RedSn0w on 3Gs old boot. I have no Cydia or Messages icons at all. Have to Spotlight it or double tap home for the quick app switcher to see them. wondering if I run GreenP over it it will help.
Also to mention no space or descript for them at all. Total poof status.
Try re-booting or re-springing your iDevice. I had a similar problem yesterday with my jailbroken (Redsn0w) iPhone 3GS running 4.1, where my apps disappeared from my Entertainment folder. I re-sprang and everything went back to normal and haven't had any problems since.
My 'Phone' icon has disappeared twice now, first time I restored it and rejailbroke it with greenpois0n. Then I restored with AptBackup and it disappeared again after that. Now showing on Spotlight search either. iPhone 3GS OS 4.2.1.
my ebooks disappered after 4.3.1 iphone4 redsnow jaillbreak any help please
What does it mean keep swiping???
I just got that problem today.. but it happens differently: when i press down an app, the icon and the "x" disappear :s tried swiping between home screens, and nothing.. only restarting the ipod turns the icon back, but if i hold down another time, the same happens... grrr
I just got this on a non jail broken 3GS running ios5. I'd just tricked the phone into putting newsstand into a folder and this seems to have confused springboard.

22 Jul 2015Blitzen Trapper Set To Release New Studio Album All Across This Land
Acclaimed Portland, Oregon rock quintet Blitzen Trapper is set to release All Across This Land on October 2 via Lojinx in Europe (on Vagrant in the US). Blitzen Trapper has built a solid reputation as a band unafraid to take chances. By incorporating a vast array of influences, they have released albums that touch on indie folk/rock, roots, art rock, alt country, psychedelia and pop, while maintaining a sound that is distinctly Blitzen Trapper. On their new studio effort, the group's years of experimentation and experience have come full circle, culminating in their strongest, most cohesive work to date with the career milestone, All Across This Land. View new the ALBUM TRAILER:
Blitzen Trapper may have experimented successfully with a multitude of styles; however, the band has been built on a strong foundation as, above all else, a ROCK band. Their live shows consistently reinforce that fact, and those who have experienced their performance would agree.
All Across This Land once again confirms that Blitzen Trapper possess the unique ability to create thoughtful, melodic, finely crafted songs on one hand, and deliver full throttle, infectious rock on the other. From the opening riff of the title track and first single, this is quite evident as it unfolds into a flurry of guitars, bass and drums. The band eases back as well by featuring some of lead singer and songwriter Eric Earley's strongest writing yet, particularly on the semi-autobiographical "Mystery and Wonder". The track's reflective and nostalgic tone was inspired by the band's beginnings, the chemistry that develops over time and the music they have created though the years. Another album highlight is "Lonesome Angel" with its easy '70's AM radio feel.
While All Across This Land features some of Earley's finest songs to date, the rest of his bandmate's performances – Erik Menteer (guitar), Michael Van Pelt (bass), Marty Marquis (guitar/keys), Brian Adrian Koch (drums) – elevate each track thus taking Blitzen Trapper to their highest artistic peak yet.

Level III Reflective Conversation
Click here for the Reflective Coversation Guide
Capturing Your Teacher Candidate's Teaching: Preparing for the Reflective Conference and Final Evaluation
|Secondary Social Studies
|Instrumental Music
|Student Teaching
Overall Evaluation Structure:
The evaluation structure of the Level III Field Experience has two components:
- A reflective conference between the UNI teacher candidate and the cooperating teacher based on a video recording of the UNI teacher candidate.
- A final electronic evaluation form to be completed by the cooperating teacher at the conclusion of the experience.
The rubric and descriptors of performance expectation are the same for the both the reflective conversation and the final evaluation.
Video Performance Assessment: Reflective Conversation
The video performance assessment tool is designed to engage you and your UNI teacher candidate in a reflective conversation about his/her demonstration of and understanding of teaching and student learning in an authentic, experiential way. Using your UNI teacher candidate's video-recording as the basis for the reflective conversation, you and the UNI teacher candidate will have the opportunity to assess his/her current abilities, knowledge and skills as a beginning teacher on his/her way to becoming a highly effective educator.
What Do I Need to Do?
- Assist your UNI teacher candidate in video recording his/her classroom teaching
- Record him/her teaching (i.e. whole group instruction, partner work, centers, class discussion, etc.)
- Record a complete segment of his/her instruction
- Video should be continuous and unedited, with no interruption in the events
- Video should include interaction between UNI teacher candidate and his/her students and his/her responses to students or student responses to each other
- Both UNI teacher candidate and his/her students should be visible and clearly heard
- Engage in a reflective conference about UNI teacher candidate's video with your UNI teacher candidate (schedule as closely to video-recording as possible)
- Prepare for your conference by reviewing the INTASC standards and performance descriptors your UNI teacher candidate is striving towards on the rubrics
- Review the reflective conversation questions for each dimensions of teaching to help you frame your thoughts for the conference
- Goals of Reflective Conference:
- Reflect on your UNI teacher candidate's skills in planning, instruction and assessment
- Assess your UNI teacher candidate's ability to establish rapport with students
- Analyze the current state of your UNI teacher candidate's dispositions and attitudes that will lead him/her to being an effective educator
- Determine areas of professional strength and growth for your UNI teacher candidate
- Complete the reflective conversation form online with your UNI teacher candidate. He/she will submit a commentary in the corresponding sections on the form as evidence of he/she planned, implemented, and reflected upon his/her instruction
What Do I Need to Know?
Reflection Criteria
- Using your UNI teacher candidate's video, you and your UNI teacher candidate will have the opportunity to discuss and reflect on five dimensions of his/her teaching: planning, instruction, assessment, analysis of teaching, and content knowledge/academic language.
- The corresponding rubrics and reflective conversation questions are in place to help you analyze his/her teaching and help him/her improve his/her practice.
- The qualifiers on the rubrics are defined as follows:
- Not Demonstrated=No evidence that the descriptor has been met.
- Developing=Candidate shows development or a partial application of the descriptor.
- Demonstrated=Candidate clearly demonstrates all aspects of the descriptor.
- Not Applicable=Descriptor does not pertain.

Changing leaves and sweater weather
It is that wonderful time of year once again where the leaves begin their transformation from earthy greens to golden yellows, deep oranges and bright reds.
It is the beginning of that enjoyable season full of cool evenings and sweater weather.
It is a time when the flavors of pumpkin, apple and cinnamon permeate nearly every food and beverage.
It is finally autumn!
Spending a large portion of my childhood living at the beach in South Carolina, I have become acclimated to scorching summers. And growing up in upstate New York, I am no stranger to harsh, snowy winters and white Christmases.
But anyone who really knows me is aware of my love (maybe at times my obsession) with autumn and everything the season brings with it — the time of year's characteristics, activities and food.
One of my favorite characteristics of autumn is the changing of the leaves. When my family lived in New York, the leaves changed colors very quickly before falling to the ground.
Once they did fall, my father would spend long afternoons meticulously raking the little leaves into large piles in our backyard. My brothers and I would watch him, sneakily peering around the side of the house and carefully timing our jump into the piles when his back was turned.
We were not helpful leaf gatherers.
Another autumn aspect I enjoy is sweater weather. As the balmy afternoons give way to cooler temperatures, I anticipate rediscovering my comfy sweaters and long-sleeved flannel shirts, as well as my cozy fleece blankets in which to wrap myself in, forming a blanket cocoon.
With autumn comes a plethora of outdoor activities that I look forward to all year long, including carnivals and fairs, bonfires and homecoming, hayrides and trick-or-treating and corn mazes and haunted houses.
In college, I always enjoyed autumn because it meant football games, blazing bonfires for evening pep rallies and the homecoming fall carnival.
I also participated in taking children trick-or-treating around my college campus, which was always a great time. The occasion reminded me of one of my first Halloweens when I was dressed up as a little orange pumpkin. My older brother was a skeleton and my younger brother was an inmate, complete with a plastic ball and chain.
My siblings and I always knew the best neighborhoods to visit and the few houses that gave out baggies full of candy. By the time we arrived home from trick-or-treating, our bags were stuffed to the brim with goodies.
We would then empty the contents of our bags onto the living floor and after our parents inspected our stash, we would swap each other for our favorite candies. I always bartered for the Butterfingers.
Although I no longer participate in trick-or-treating myself, last year I did feel like a kid again when I joined a group of friends for a spooky hayride and corn maze with a haunted house. It was quite frightening to be honest, and I thought we would never make it out of that maze.
Yet my all-time favorite autumn activity is visiting an apple orchard and pumpkin patch. My family and I went apple picking frequently in New York, plucking the fruits from the highest branches and always eating more than we took home.
Apple picking was never complete without a stop by the pumpkin patch to locate the perfect carving pumpkin. Ever since I was little I have enjoyed pumpkin carving and mushing the pumpkin "guts" between my fingers. In fact, the past three years I have embraced my inner child by carving a pumpkin.
Back at the orchard, after packing up our bushels of apples and finding our smooth-faced pumpkins, we would settle down on a bale of hay and enjoy a hot cup of fresh-squeezed apple cider and a warm cinnamon sugar doughnut.
It is one of the best ways to enjoy autumn.
Not to mention all of the delicious fall foods and beverages, from creamy pumpkin spice lattes to homemade white chicken chili to all the fixings and trimmings on Thanksgiving.
And on that note, I am going to find my chunky cable knit sweater, curl up in a blanket with one of those lattes and gaze out upon the changing leaves.

text: I thought I'd start a thread on "Just Landscapes". I'm kind of obsessed in taking pictures of them. I'm probably out somewhere each week trying to capture a sunset or take a landscape picture in a new place or with some new angle, or creative idea, ect.... Anyway, I just thought I'd start one off for those with a similar obsession and post several that I have not posted here on the forum yet. No real theme to this thread other than some more of your cool landscape pictures to get some creative ideas and inspiration going on our photography. We are blessed to be out in the great expansive county that we visit or we hunt in. It's awesome to try and capture those moments, their essence, soul and a bit of the emotion on film, at least for me that is. God bless you all and your adventures to come.

I moved to texas from California last year and currently outside of dallas .so yea whats good
posting it*
I'll check it out..thanks for posting!
it is feb. 15/16 at walters facebook event for it is here https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&sou...
@Grindcore ..when/where is it? Like what day and venue?
im just super curious, is anyone thinking about going to the 1st bad ass weekend in feb. in houston the line up is
BASTARD CULT ---- like this is ridiculous!!
Houston punks: a few of us are planning a meet and greet either on the 18th or 19th perhaps in the Montrose area. If you are on Facebook, here is the link to the group but I think you have to be invited into it, so just add me on Facebook and I can add you to the group or something:
I really want to get this going! I'm sure we can all agree that we'd love to meet more ppl like us. Most likely, the Facebook group will be updated more than this site, but I'll probably come back on here and fill anyone in who may not be in the group.
I just had a thought about SXSW. Does anyone in the Houston area normally attend? Anyone in the Austin area or anywhere in TX planning on attending? What bands do you normally see or plan on seeing? I've gone for the past few years, since 2010, but my plans are up in the air for this year.
Sounds good DJ Kool..I'm not 25 yet but those that are I hope they can go. If anyone knows of any upcoming shows please suggest! Don't just leave it to a few of us to think of something (lol).. I heard of a show on the 19th but it's up in the air as far as the venue. Last I heard it might be at Walter's. I'll keep you guys posted.
As far as meet-ups, I have a few events in planning stages and will be holding auditions soon for upcoming shows. Right now I have a weekly residency at a "hole in the wall" type spot where the people actually dance...as couples. LOL Me and my friend spin Blues, Zydeco, Funk, Soul, Hip-Hop, R&B, Reggae and a touch of Top 40. Depending on how the crowd is, we also throw in Latin and other genres. They sell margaritas, beer and some wine. Most "expensive" drinks might be $2.50 or $3. We also have contests every week for patrons to win cash and prizes.

American lighting designer and stage manager Ronald Bates (1932–86) was one of the leading figures in his field working in ballet, particularly known for his close partnership with choreographer George Balanchine. He created the lighting designs for several Balanchine works in The Royal Ballet's repertory, including Serenade, Ballo della regina and Stravinsky Violin Concerto. He also designed the lighting for Jerome Robbins's The Concert, and was involved in lighting the original productions of Robbins's Dances at a Gathering and In the Night, also in The Royal Ballet's repertory.
Bates studied scenic design at Los Angeles City College and joined New York City Ballet as Production Stage Manager in 1957. He continued in the role for more than twenty years and was appointed Director of Production with the company in 1985. In addition to his work with NYCB, Bates was made Technical Director of New York State Theater in 1971, and worked with dance companies around the world including Dance Theatre of Harlem, San Francisco Ballet, Paris Opera and Zürich Ballet and, in theatre, at the Stratford, Connecticut, Mozart and Shakespeare festivals.
One of Bates's greatest legacies is the 'Balanchine basket-weave floor', a resilient wooden stage-floor design created in 1981 in collaboration with Balanchine and NYCB Stage Manager Perry Silvey.

The Giants are perhaps the most loyal organization in sports because with all the cutting and speed required of DBs and WRs there is no way either Hixon or TT can come back to form after 2-3 ACLs. I think the Giants knew this and thats why we drafted and signed CBs. Watch out for Will Hill I think the guy is going to be a stud once he learns the playbook.
THANK YOU I COUNTED AT LEAST 5-6 in critical situations. Harbaugh is a dirty coach who can't even shake hands.
Moreover, why not call timeout!!!! Very upsetting loss. Coaching lapse at end of game.
Terrible no calls. Refs blew it on the manningham attempt on 2nd and 2. Horrible just horrible. Additional no call on the Ballard play. Niners really aren't that good. Extremely overrated. Giants should have won.
agree 100% he's missed 5 or 6 critical tackles in big situations.
I am fine with 14-13. Have to give major proops to Gilbride for calling a great game. I can live with Mccoy more then I would with huge vick plays.
Questions/Points: 1. why go for it on 4th and 3? Does Tynes not have that range? and trust Beckum! Cmon. 2. celek should have been called for personal foul- for taking off helmet on rolle scuffle. 3. 12 men on field on last fG. 3. Vick looks disoriented.
AHAHHAHA- calling it right now that Ross pulls a hammy or gets injured in PR duties. only person to blame is TC! His brilliance is just amazing, starting corner of depleted secondary put him in perhaps the most obvious way for him to get injured. so smart. I personally think we should bring back Mark Collins from the 86 team. he could probably do a better job than michael coe.
Aaron Ross primary PR. So, let me get this straight. He is the last thing standing between us starting Michael Coe and we want him back there dangerously returning punts!!! Unbelievable. The sheer stupidity of Coughlin is unbelievable. Ross stinks at corner but Coe is absolutely atrocious. Why not put Jernigan or Scott back there and see what they can do. Remember Dave Megett???? RB's can excel in that position!
I agree. I am sick and tired of Coughlin giving up on rookies cause of ONE mistake. Its so dumb. Jernigan was hailed as our Desean Jackson but he's inactive??? In favor of Stokely? He should be our 3-4 WR and he should learn how to be effective punt returner. The guy lit it up at troy against some quality competition- he's not a bum, why give up on him? Better than bringing a scrub like David Clowney which is what the Giants might do- again, all this is on the giants organizatoin and coaching staff. can't blame the players.
he's had what? 2 catches this year. get over it, he's gone for better or worse. very hard to come back from his surgery, doubt he ll ever be a 100 catch guy again.
you are 100% wrong. a better WR can adjust better to bad throws. look at nicks on MNF. his TD was an awful throw as was his over the sholder grab.
big blue, eli needs weapons. he's not going anywhere so he needs WR and TES to make plays for him. circle back to the NFC champ GB game- Plax made TONS of plays for the guy. we need another big time WR along with Nicks. and, better yet- a TE. The blame falls upon inept ownership and a GM who thinks he's above the fray. Its a joke.
opening up the *offense* I really don't think there's any excuse not to sign Moss. who cares if he takes plays off. he's someone a team like the eagles, cowboys, patriots and packers will have to take account of. you think they will be intimidated by Devin Thomas?
If ownership doesn't bring someone in to open up the defense, I think they deserve even more blame. Just the presence of TO/MOSS would do wonders for opening up the offense. Just moving Devin Thomas up the rotation of scrubs is just pathetic. IF you are going to throw 100 million at your overrated QB do something to help him at least. No Steve Smith, low ball Burress, and sign no replacment. Nicks is going to get doubled and with MM maddeingly inconsistent its gonna be tough sledding. CMON JR/MARA/TISCH do something for your QB, your team and the fans. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
TC and JR need to beg Randy Moss to come back and play for the giants. need him to stretch the defense draw double coverage free up nicks, even if he gets 1-2 catches a game who cares. with MM banged up, if we move frwd with just cruz and stokely you can count on total offensive ineptitude.
where is chris palmer? I think the offense needs to go no huddle 2 minute routinely like we used to. Eli is a terrible decision maker, make him just throw check downs. his long ball is worse than the guys tailgating in section 16
One has to wonder that something is off with our trainers and strength guys, this is too much of a pattern, not chance. got to have strong muscles around the knee cap to protect it...
DEVSATATING Loss. I admire Hixon as a pro. Great guy and good player. Heart goes out to the guy.
MG or ZB, can someone comment on possible WR signings. Houzmanzadh? Moss? Even TO? Clowney? What's Barden's status? I think we need someone to help- Cruz and Stokely is not enough.... Any updates?
Thanks for the shout out, ZB. Kildrive should employ some max protect schemes and give Beatty help on Trent Cole. I did like the way the utilized bradshaw and jacobs in the passing gm. the eagles used to have real trouble with that when we had Tiki. maybe that is the right way to go about it? neutralize the blitz. I'll say this. Eli is downright awful with a rush in his face. He's not bad with a pocket to play with. Like I said, on defense go bump and run JAM these idiots at the line and hope to god pass rush is there all day.
doens't matter where he was drafted, if he has talent and speed he shuld be on the field in some capacity

Finally finished both tarmac and gravel version Now need to make the hard version (probably as an update after the official release of the map) and I have to add some additional stuff, which hopefully won't take much time.
Some pics of the gravel version:
Looks sweet! Can't wait!
Desperately trying to turn Rigs of Rods into a racing simulator since 2009

a lot of improvements on this map!!! keep your hard work online, you're great!!!!!!

Great looking map JohnV, I can't wait to do some hillclimbing on those awesome hills .
Nobody outside of the invited section has got permission to use any of the stuff I released here.
Only invited members are allowed to freely redistribute and/or alter anything I have made.
I would thank you for your understanding in this matter,
Some nice teaser trailer of the map, made by Nadeox1:
Oh and I have done some progress btw, hope to finish it soon
looks like it would make a good moonsining map to me... maybe hide a still some where in there? keep up the good work!
why are you reading this?
-All the signs (what a headache).
-Made the gravel road more rough (suitable for rally cars), though it needs some improvements.
-Added 3 races in total with rally symbols as checkpoints (separated them on different terrn files)
Left to do:
-Add 3 more races, which will be the reversed versions of the other 3.
-Wooden fences on the outside of most turns for protection.
-Rally tents on start/finish areas, crowds and other rally-related stuff.
Signs by LJFHutch (and some of them added by me after modifying the image).
Unbeliavable! Looks Fantastic!
Can´t want to try!
This map looks awesome so far, really liking it.
Was just thinking though, on the first attached pic where the road joins the dark asphalt would it be possible to use the same technique you used to get the sides of the roads to match the terrain to make the transition blend better. Just an idea, I understand if you don't want to add it as i can imagine it could be a pain to get right

Megan stars in their new Armani Code fragrance advertisements and has a whole new look. Megan looks super chic in a sleek black bob, crimson lips and a backless dress in the ad, and can we ask who the dude is in the photos with Foxy. Where can we get a phone number? Gorgeous, right?

NM bill on expunging records ready for House vote
Posted at: 03/11/2013 12:42 PM
By: The Associated Press
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - The New Mexico House is poised to consider a Senate-passed bill to allow judges to expunge some criminal records under certain circumstances.
The bill would allow a person to ask a court to expunge records. That could be done under certain circumstances by somebody arrested but not convicted.
Also, petitions could be filed by somebody convicted of a misdemeanor but not charged in other cases for at least five years, or 10 years for domestic violence offenders.
Santa Fe New Mexican
reports that people convicted of sex offenses, crimes against minors and drunken driving would not be allowed to request expungement.
Gov. Susana Martinez vetoed a version of the legislation last year.
The House Judiciary Committee approved the current bill Saturday.

I feel it's better to sing about these things ourselves and perform them with the people who it happened to than to have some journalist one day say 'then in 1971, one time when they were at the mudshark hotel...' But people have problems with things of a glandular nature in connection with things of a musical nature. They say why, music is way up here, and glands are way down there and they can't get 'em together, but then they are hypocritical because they take a band that doesn't sing about such things directly and couches their language a little and does it with a little choreography and say that that's great and that's real rock and roll. I maintain that there's no difference, we're just honest enough to get up and say 'this is this and that's that and here you are and respond to it' and the response is 'why... I'm hip, but of course I am offended'.

Rick Schooler, CIO and VP of Orlando Health in Florida, sounds more like a chief medical officer than a tech pro. A "new level of decision support," driven by business intelligence, is moving health IT closer to what Schooler calls the endgame of disease management, clinical analytics, and population health.
Schooler believes that the success of transforming the nation's health system rests on how well organizations input and mine their data, both in real time at the point of care and in post-care review.
"This is real for healthcare and it's not going away," he said. "If you don't believe that, you probably need to get out of healthcare."
The seven-hospital Orlando Health organization made the 2011 InformationWeek 500 list largely because Schooler has been successful in tying together myriad, disparate information systems. These systems contain such data as patient demographics, laboratory results, medical images, clinical documentation, patient history, problem lists, medication lists, allergies, and discharge summaries.
"A health system like ours literally has hundreds of clinical information systems," Schooler said. Different vendors provide systems for registration, scheduling, billing, and ancillary departments. "There are all these technologies that need to be integrated."
With that in mind, Schooler and his team have implemented an enterprise data warehouse and advanced analytics tool sets, and they recently established a corporate enterprise analytics team.
The technology might have evolved, but the strategy for integrating systems is the same as it's always been. "It all stems from getting effective workflows into place," Schooler said.

SUPERIOR - The U.S. Justice Department, the U.S. Attorney's office in Madison, Wisconsin, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Wisconsin Department of Justice today announced a proposed settlement with Murphy Oil USA, Inc., which will dramatically cut nitrogen oxides ("NOX"), sulfur dioxide ("SO2") and particulate matter ("PM") emissions from the company's Superior, Wisconsin refinery, and will also improve Murphy Oil's programs to monitor and repair leaks of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and to prevent oil spills. Murphy will also pay a $1.25 million civil penalty.
This is the second Wisconsin settlement with Murphy Oil, which had previously entered into a settlement addressing Clean Air Act violations at its Superior, Wisconsin refinery in 2002, after a 10-day trial. Today's settlement will replace the 2002 settlement. The 2002 settlement required cuts in SO2 emissions, monitoring and repair of leaks of VOCs and to prevent oil spills. Murphy paid a $5.5 million civil penalty out of which the State of Wisconsin received $750,000.
Of the $1.25 million in civil penalties under the current settlement $625,000 will go to the United States that initiated the enforcement effort, $395,312.50 to the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, and $229,687.50 will go to the State of Wisconsin even though Murphy's Louisiana facility is approximately four times the size of its Wisconsin facility.
Murphy Oil USA has agreed to install new and upgraded pollution reduction equipment at its two petroleum refineries in Wisconsin and Louisiana, at an estimated cost of $142 million as part of a comprehensive Clean Air Act settlement, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Justice Department announced today.
Murphy's refineries are located in Superior, Wisconsin, and in Meraux, Louisiana. The new air pollution control technologies and other measures to be implemented at both refineries will reduce emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide by nearly 1,400 tons per year once all controls are installed. In Wisconsin this will mean reductions of about 56.5 tons of NOX, 446 tons of SO2, and 12.3 tons PM per year. Additional total reductions of 338 tons per year of NOX are required from both facilities due to required improvements in facility heaters and boilers. The settlement will also reduce emissions of volatile organic compounds, particulate matter and carbon monoxide. These pollutants can cause serious respiratory problems and exacerbate cases of childhood asthma, among other adverse health effects.
The States of Wisconsin and Louisiana, including the Wisconsin Department of Justice and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, actively participated in and are joining in the settlement with Murphy, which was filed with the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin. The settlement is subject to a 30-day public comment period and approval by the federal court.
"Compliance with Wisconsin's and federal air pollution control laws is essential to keep a level economic playing field between all Wisconsin businesses and their competitors, and to protect public health," said Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen. "This settlement sends the right message in both respects," he said.
Assistant Attorney General Thomas Dawson represented the State of Wisconsin in the action.

Drugs led to fall of Tennessee QB with awesome arm
The discussion of Tennessee's greatest quarterbacks starts with Peyton Manning. Heath Shuler is mentioned quickly.
But there are those who would argue that Tony Robinson was the most talented of them all.
Robinson's story both on the football field and off it is a sad tale of lost opportunity. Instead of becoming a UT football icon, he has become lost in the shadows.
Robinson came to UT from Tallahassee, Fla., in 1982. He didn't have much meat on his bones but his arm was a rocket-launcher and he was mobile.
In 1984 Robinson finally got the reins of the team. A junior, he earned first-team All-SEC, leading the Vols to a 7-4-1 record that included a 28-27 win over Alabama.
As the 1985 season opened, Robinson was a proven commodity with a likely NFL future. He had all the tools.
On Sept. 28 Robinson engineered a stunning upset of No. 1 Auburn at Neyland Stadium. A few days later there he was on the cover of Sports Illustrated,
His star was on the rise, but Robinson would have only three more games in his career.
On Oct. 19, two Alabama defenders tackled him at Legion Field in Birmingham and Robinson's right knee crumpled — a torn anterior cruciate ligament.
Robinson's college career was done.
In only 16 starts Robinson passed for 3,332 yards, which still ranks 14th on UT's career chart.
The Vols picked up the pieces and went on to win the SEC title and the Sugar Bowl. But less than a week after the triumph in New Orleans Robinson's future unraveled.
He and teammate B.B. Cooper were arrested for selling cocaine to an undercover police officer. Thus began a series of legal entanglements that would dominate the rest of Robinson's life.
The original crime could have been a speed bump. Robinson was sentenced to only three months in jail. Instead it became a mountain.
Robinson briefly played football for two minor-league teams in Virginia. His NFL dream was realized in September 1987, when, during an NFL players holdout, he led a Washington Redskins "replacements" squad to a nationally televised win over Dallas.
But that was it. One game. The labor dispute ended, the real players returned and Robinson fell into a series of incarcerations for charges ranging from probation violation to drug possession to forgery.
When the 1985 "Sugar Vols" held a reunion in 2005, his old teammates could not persuade Robinson to come and take part.
In 2010, Josh Cody, a son Robinson never met, played in Neyland Stadium for UT Martin.
"My uncles and my grandpa,'' said Cody, "they tell me 'your dad was something else.'"
He was.

What You Should Know
|Star Rating
|2 or More Patented Ingredients
|Less Than $5 Shipping
|Trial Offer
|Rejuval Skin (2014 Editors Choice)
|Facial Toner
|IQ Derma
|Dermelect Serum
|Meaningful Beauty
According to the Dermelect Serum website, this is the first cosmeceutical company that is a joint venture between medical professionals and licensed aestheticians. Dermelect Serum strives to bring "targeted solutions for problem areas with dermatologist tested ingredients". Product categories include anti-aging, skin solutions, total body care and eye care. The Dermelect Cellular Redefinition Serum is found under the skin solutions category, although it does also claim to reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles and "increase skin's firmness and luminosity". The product is available on the company website as well as from other online retailers that we found. The company provides free samples with every order, and they also offer a 30-day money back guarantee, although the website states that they will not accept "overly used products" for return.
According to both the company website and other online retailers, the Dermelect Cellular Redefinition Serum works most effectively when it is paired with other Dermelect products like the Rapid Repair Facial Moisturizer and the Microdermabrasion 2-3 Facial Reveal. While it is not necessarily unusual for a company to recommend that their products be used in combination for best results, we find that this adds cost and sometimes inconvenience for a consumer who is simply looking for an effective anti-wrinkle treatment to add to their current skin care regimen.
Product Details
The ingredients listed for the Dermelect Cellular Redefinition Serum include hyaluronic acid, comfrey, green tea, vitamin E, avocado oil, jojoba oil, safflower and chamomile. The hyaluronic acid is of particular interest to us, since this is a proven anti-aging substance with superior hydration abilities. The green tea and vitamin E found in Dermelect Serum are antioxidants that can protect and repair the skin from free radical damage that can contribute to the aging process. The company does a good job of listing and explaining each of the ingredients that are used in the formula. However, we would have preferred to see additional active ingredients like matrixyl 3000 and argireline that have proven anti-aging benefits and are particularly effective when they are used in tandem in a single product.
The Good
- The Dermelect Cellular Redefinition Serum is reasonably priced and readily available from multiple sources.
- A full ingredient list is disclosed on the company website.
The Bad
- The only recognized anti-aging substance found in the Dermelect Serum formula is hyaluronic acid.
- The 30-day money back guarantee is unclear as to how much of the product you can try before returning.
- The product is recommended for use in conjunction with other Dermelect products, raising the price and time spent on a skin care regimen.
The Bottom Line
0The Dermelect Cellular Redefinition Serum appears on the surface to have a lot going for it, but we find that there are key ingredients lacking from the formula that may hinder the effectiveness of the product. For the same price as Dermelect Serum, you may get a bigger bang for your buck with another product that will offer a greater number of anti-aging substances in it's formula.

Barbara Purdy's Basement
Repurpose old furniture instead of buying new.
Designer and homeowner Barbara Purdy converted a wood-burning fireplace to gas to create a cosy focal point. "I couldn't see myself hauling logs down the stairs," she says. Radiant heating installed under the wood-look porcelain-tile floor heats the basement as well. The sofa, a hand-me-down from her parents, was recovered and layered with pillows.
"You might have just clean white walls because you need that airiness and lightness in a basement, but you can add warm textures and dark colours in the furniture and accessories to give you that cosy look," advises H&H style editor Sarah Hartill.

How to Recycle Plastic Bottles
40 billion plastic bottles are produced each year in the United States, mostly for beverages. Two-thirds of them end up in landfills. All things considered, this is not good for the environment. Avoid landfill by recycling them.
1Find out what kind of program your community has for recycling plastics. Many areas do not recycle all kinds of plastic. On the bottom of the bottle there should be a number in a triangle. This is a 'Process Number'. Ask your local Council whether they have facilities in place to recycle plastic of that particular number. They will normally recycle plastic milk bottles.Ad
2Rinse out the bottles. Fill it with water, swill that around and then empty. Repeat twice. You don't need to bother with soap, as this is just to remove the bulk of the remaining fluid, as this can get smelly in storage.
3Remove the caps but do not remove labels if you are in ME or HI or another local that pays a 5 cent or similar refund per bottle. In MI there is 10 cent bottle refund. If you are selling them in bulk by weight then remove labels. Caps and glued labels can`t be recycled, so just throw them out.
4Follow your community's instructions on what to do with your plastic bottles. Most often there is a special curbside collection for recycling, but otherwise take them to your local Bottle-Bank.
5Visit www.capsncups.com to learn how to recycle plastic bottle caps and #5 plastic cups.Ad
We could really use your help!
- There are many different ways that you can recycle plastic bottles. Some are recycled at the curb. Sometimes you have to bring your recyclable bottles to a dumpster or town recycling post.
- Always be responsible for the things in your environment.
- Remember to remove all labels and caps from the bottles before recycling.
- Ask your local council if they also recycle glass. Usually the steps for recycling glass are the same as for plastic.
- 40 billion plastic bottles are produced each year in the United States. Two-thirds of them end up in landfills. Avoid this by recycling them.
- However, on the other hand, countries such as China and India purchase much waste plastic produced in the U.S. and other countries because it DOES make sense for their economies (and ecologies). The effort it takes to collect, process, and transport collected plastic bottles makes more sense than the amount of effort it takes to do the same for plastic products made from virgin materials--particularly in growing economies which lack the resources. For some products, the use of recycled material does not affect quality.
Things You'll Need
- Used plastic bottles.

September is National Recovery Month, a time to promote the benefits of prevention and treatment for mental and substance use disorders and promote the message that recovery in all its forms is possible. The Recovery Month campaign works to raise awareness that behavioral health is an essential part of health, that prevention works, treatment is effective, and people can and do recover from substance use and mental disorders
This year's theme, "Join the Voices for Recovery: It's Worth It," emphasizes that while the road to recovery may be difficult, the benefits of preventing and overcoming mental and/or substance use disorders are significant and valuable to individuals, families, and communities. People in recovery achieve healthy lifestyles, both physically and emotionally, and contribute in positive ways to their communities.
