Who Should Invest in Income Producing Property (IncP)?
People I meet often ask, "Should I invest in income producing property (IncP), would that be a smart thing for me to do?" My answer is always the same. If you have a natural curiosity or interest in real estate, yes! If you are motivated to make money and willing to expend the time and effort and learn to invest successfully, then yes, absolutely! When it comes to pre-retirees, the following groups should consider investing in income producing property:
Underfunded - Several retirement calculators indicate your current savings balance is significantly below the desired level for someone your age.
Skinny Nest Egg - Your are "on target" and fully invested in the stock market. You are counting on those 10% annual gains and are growing concerned, based on the real stock market returns since 2000.
Anti Liquidate - Your plan to live on just the interest and dividends is looking like a stretch. Spending down the nest egg will keep you up at night and might lead to miserly or eccentric behavior!
Max Legacy - Your want to leave a significant sum of money to your heirs or favorite charity, without compromising your lifestyle during retirement.
Retire Early - You want to create a sufficient income to escape the employment "rat race" and travel, volunteer, go back to school and chase your dreams!
For those with a system for investing in the stock market that consistently beats the DJIA, forget about real estate, borrow all the money you can and go for it! If you have other investment alternatives that produce superior returns with less effort, pursue those first. For everyone else, if you are motivated and willing to invest the time and effort to be successful with IncP then start today!

Hi! Thanks for your reply and what's missing, what would you like to know? jv
A question for you: people who ask and have interest you tell them "yes, absolutely!". To people who make better returns on the stock market, wouldn't you counsel them to balance their portfolios with IcP? You then listed some who should "consider" IcP which sounds more of a cautious recommendation, much less of a "yes, absolutely! Would you consider that investors in all of these situations should consider an REI pathway that meets their goals?
Thanks for your reply and good questions! I'm not a financial advisor but I believe there are ways to reduce market risk for stock investors, other than investing in real estate. I used "consider" as an appeal to the multitudes blindly lumping $ into stocks who have traditionally been afraid of real estate. I recommend REI for everyone in these situations if they have the interest, want to learn and will actively participate in the process. I hope that helps and again, thanks for your questions!

Students and local residents will no longer be able to repeat recreational courses at California Community Colleges in fall 2013 under a final change passed today by the system's Board of Governors.

As City College of San Francisco contemplates the unthinkable - that the vast school of 90,000 students would close next year if it loses accreditation - a look at the state's only college forced to close for that reason holds a surprise.
Higher education in Huntsville faces a shifting landscape that could lead to several more changes, and possible conflicts, in the near future.
Mike Calvert, dean for humanities and social science at Butler Community College in El Dorado, Kan., has been named as the new president of Central Community College-Grand Island.
The poorly run City College of San Francisco has eight months to prove it should stay in business, yet must "make preparations for closure," evaluators ordered Tuesday.
State links funds to student success
Middle States Commission said it has made progress in assessing student performance
As California cut millions from community colleges in recent years, City College of San Francisco dipped deeply into reserve funds to keep itself afloat.
Grand Rapids Community College might not be the first place students looking to become a doctor choose to start their college career.
Indiana spends more than most states for each bachelor's degree awarded to students at state colleges and universities, according to a new report.

ESP Print Pro: The Commercial Cousin to CUPS
Why Pay Money?
ESP Print Pro, by Easy Software Products, is the commercial edition of CUPS, the Common Unix Printing System. CUPS is the standard printing system on virtually all modern Linux distributions and MacOS X. It runs on all Unixes, and provides print services to Windows and *nix systems. CUPS + Linux make a good printer server for Linux/Unix LANs. CUPS + Linux + Samba make a great printer server for Windows and mixed LANs.
CUPS works all this magic with IPP (Internet Printing Protocol). IPP is a client-server protocol that can run on a single system with an attached printer, or on a server with remote clients. You can even send print jobs to far-away remote clients over the Internet, which sounds like a cool way to replace fax machines. In practice I've had it working pretty well, but network printing is inherently troublesome enough that you should have someone at both locations to keep an eye on things.
CUPS comes with a set of generic drivers for 9-pin and 24-pin Epson dot matrix printers, 9-pin and 24-pin Okidata dot matrix printers, Epson Stylus Color, Stylus Photo, HP LaserJet, HP DeskJet, and Dymo labelers. These support hundreds of printers, though not with full functionality; features like tray selection and duplex printing are not included. To really make CUPS useful requires using the Foomatic and Gimp-print drivers. These are available in both .deb and RPM packages, and for the most part are high-quality, especially the Gimp-print drivers.
A nice feature of CUPS is it supports high-volume distributed printing. Several printers are grouped into a class, then print jobs are sent to the class and handled by the first available printer.
CUPS supports IPP, HTTP, and the old lp (System 5) and lpr (BSD) print commands. It has a Web-based GUI control panel. It provides a consistent API for driver development. So with all of these goodies for free, why should you even consider paying money for ESP Print Pro?

Brandspotting: Zoo York
What is Zoo York?
Basically, this is a skateboarding inspired lifestyle brand came in to existence in 1993 when OG skateboarders Rodney Smith, Eli Morgan Gessner and Adam Schatz teamed up together to run business. The brand took its inspiration from New York City's rapidly evolving skateboarding, hip-hop and graffiti scenes to produce a variety of products – skateboards, clothing and footwear – that truly reflected the dark and gritty culture of the NYC. Zoo York started off with manufacturing decks and t-shirts and slowly transformed itself in to a brand that offered a whole range of street wear collection marked by military surplus and urban-athletic styling.
Zoo York today has evolved as a globally recognized brand that continues to be heavily influenced by skateboarding, graffiti, hip-hop, punk and everything in between. This Manhattan based brand offers a wide range of clothing and footwear for both men and women. The Zoo crew comprises of original NYC graffiti artists, designers, musicians, new and old school skateboarders and some of the biggest names in the BMX and surf communities.
While Zoo York shoes are particularly great for skateboarding, you can wear them as a casual pair of sneakers too: the label's canvas sneakers look very easy and comfortable. The soft canvas fabric is very convenient for wearing all day long and this skate sneaker is not made just for the skateboard.
Skateboarding and graffiti are the characteristic elements of the NYC and if you are a New Yorker by spirit, Zoo York is the brand for you!

Little Joe Y La Familia
The seventh of 13 children, Little Joe began playing music in 1953 with his cousin David Coronado's band, David Coronado & the Latinaires. Two years later, he performed his first paid gig with the band at a high-school sock hop in Cameron, Texas. In 1958, Little Joe made his recording debut with the song "Safari," released by Torrero Records in Corpus Christi, Texas. The following year, Little Joe's brother Jesse joined the band on bass and vocals. When Coronado left shortly afterwards, Little Joe assumed leadership of the group. Throughout the early '60s, Little Joe led the band through a series of recordings on small independent labels. He underwent a personal transformation after Jesse died in an automobile accident in 1964. Determined to achieve commercial success, he altered his musical approach to include more rock and blues influences.
In 1968, Little Joe formed two labels of his own: Buena Suerte for recordings in Spanish, and Good Luck for recordings in English. He later added a third label, Leona Records. His musical approach shifted again in 1970. After performing in the San Francisco Bay Area, he became enchanted by "Latinismo" and changed the name of his band again. In 1985, Little Joe y la Familia signed their first major-label recording deal with WEA International. Two years later, Little Joe formed his fourth label -- Redneck -- and released the double live album 25th Silver Anniversary. After releasing two albums for WEA, Little Joe switched to Sony International, where he remained until 1983, when he launched his fifth label, Tejano Discos. His first release on the label, "Que Paso," earned him his third Grammy nomination. In 1996, Little Joe performed on the Frankie Yankovic album Songs of the Polka King, Vol.1, singing a duet with Yankovic of "Just Because/Si Porque." Little Joe has appeared in two films: Proposition 187, a Deadly Law and Down for the Barrio. ~ Craig Harris, Rovi

GREENVILLE - Goaltender Jeff Jakaitis made 40 saves to help South Carolina defeat Greenville, 3-2, at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena on Friday night.
The Stingrays improved to 20-5-1-2, while the Road Warriors fell to 12-14-1-1.
Stingrays defenseman Luka Vidmar broke open the scoring with his first goal of the season at 11:08 of the first period, ripping a shot under glove of Road Warriors goaltender Connor Knapp (28 saves on 31 shots) from the left-wing circle. Forwards Paul Rodrigues and Peter Boyd added assists.
Boyd made it a two-goal advantage 44 seconds into the third period with help from Rodrigues and forward Patrick Gaul.
The Road Warriors jumped on the board with an unassisted power-play goal from forward Jordie Johnston at 7:57, beating Jakaitis under the glove from the right-wing circle.
Forward Lindsay Sparks made it 3-1 for the Stingrays at 15:22, knocking in a rebound off the right pad of Knapp. Forward Wayne Simpson grabbed the lone assist.
Road Warriors forward Justin Vaive pulled the game back within one at 16:56. With Knapp pulled for the extra skater, Greenville generated numerous chances in front of Jakaitis, but could not find tying tally.
The Stingrays ended the contest 0 for 2 on the power play while the Road Warriors went 1 for 4.
The Stingrays return to the North Charleston Coliseum on Saturday to host the Wheeling Nailers on Holiday Holdover Troops Night presented by the USO and Verizon Wireless.

A Henry County jury heard what Seth Techel says happened the morning his pregnant wife was murdered.
In court Tuesday, prosecutors played an audio recording of Techel from the crime scene. It was made about an hour after he called 911 last May.
From his first interview at the crime scene to a sit-down interview with the DCI, Seth Techel's story is the same.
Techel says he was in the shower when he heard a gunshot. He ran into the bedroom and saw his wife, Lisa, lying on the bed. He told authorities that he grabbed his gun from the night stand, ran down the hallway and found the back door open, but didn't see anyone outside.
Prosecutors claim Techel knows more than he's saying.
They say Techel waited 18 minutes to call 911 and question why a husband trained in CPR didn't try to save his wife's life.
"I can't move her and then I just realize that I couldn't do it. I can't, I froze, I can't save my own wife," Techel told police.
Techel says he didn't do it, but he might know who did; his neighbor Brian Tate.
Authorities even issued a warning about the Techel's neighbor, "Do not mess with this guy. He's off his rocker," a recording played in court showed.
During the more than four hour police interview, Techel can be heard crying one minute, then sounding composed the next when he acknowledges that he's likely a prime suspect in his wife's murder.
"I know I'm obviously probably number one right now," Techel said.
The jury heard Techel explain there was an ongoing dispute with Tate over a vandalism prank Techel's friends say they pulled on his request.
The trial continues Wednesday.

With an investment in Ecologic Brands, makers of the eco.bottle recycled paper bottle, Kruger has become the exclusive licensee and manufacturer of Ecologic's paper bottle technology in Canada.
"We are especially excited to bring the Ecologic paper bottle technology to our customers in the Canadian market as an additional offering to complement our corrugated packaging solutions," said Michael Lafave, senior vice-president, Containerboard/Packaging & Recycling at Kruger Inc.
Kruger's Consumer Products Division currently serves the U.S. and Canadian markets with numerous well-known tissue product brands, and the eco.bottle® opens doors to other types of consumer-facing goods.
Ecologic Brands recently completed the first close of a US$7-million round of financing. Investors include a strategic investment from Kruger Inc. and current Angel investors, DBL Investors, Catamount Ventures, and Black Bear Partners.
Kruger's strategic investment in Ecologic unlocks synergies between two complementary partners, the most obvious being Kruger's manufacturing, supply chain and paper technology with Ecologic's patented molded fiber technology. This will help scale Ecologic's current manufacturing capabilities rapidly.
Julie Corbett, founder of Ecologic, commented on the significance of this relationship. "By bringing the paper eco.bottle® into markets that have been traditionally dominated by plastics, our partnership with Kruger will help us revolutionize the bottling business with one of the most renewable and recyclable resources—paper."
Ira Maroofian, CEO of Ecologic added, "We want to build this company with great products, people, and partners. The Kruger team brings all of that to the table and truly legitimizes Ecologic as a packaging company with staying power."
Since commercializing its first paper bottle in 2011 with green cleaning powerhouse, Seventh Generation Inc., Ecologic has manufactured and shipped millions of bottles to 15 brand partners around the world.
Kruger Inc. is a major producer of publication papers, tissue, lumber and other wood products, corrugated cartons from recycled fibres, green and renewable energy and wines and spirits. The Company is also a leader in paper and paperboard recycling in North America.
Amazing why don't more people buy into this stock?
Posted April 30, 2014 04:42 PM
Editor, Pulp & Paper Canada
It appears from the Ecologic web site that the "bottle" is a molded paper shape with a thin plastic pouch inside.
Posted April 30, 2014 10:49 AM
This is an exciting idea! I'm wondering, though, if these molded paper bottles still need to be lined with plastic, when they're filled with liquids. If not, is there some type of impervious coating inside, and is that recyclable?

Full detailed profile on Emily Quartermaine Played by Natalia Livingston on General Hospital Daytime Soap Opera.
Natalia Livingston (ABC)
Birthday: January 26 1976
Nik finds Nadine in his stables and tells her that Emily never showed up last night. She assures him that she always shows up at some point and then tells him to saddle up. After they ride, Nadine tells Nik that she'd like to cook dinner for him. He says that he should be doing something nice for her because she's been so good to him. In any case, after the surgery is over, he says that he would love to have dinner with her. After she leaves Nik puts on a suit and rattles around Wyndermere in hopes that Emily will appear. She does.
"I'm done doing business with you," Nik tells Dr. Devlin out at the Spoon Island stables. Dr. Devlin reminds him that he will no longer see his beloved Emily without his drugs and then cuts his price in half. Nik tells him that he needs to accept his decision or else he'll turn him into the medical board. After Devlin leaves, Emily is very proud of Nik for making the right decision. He's not so sure that he hasn't made a mistake but she reminds him that he lost her in November the rest has been his imagination. He cries as he recalls the first time he met her and how much they've grown since then. He mentions her cancer and their divorce and laments that when they finally get back on track, it's over. She tells him that as long as he's alive, they are not over!
Emily finds Nikolas out with the horses and comments on the wild ride he just took with Nadine. He jokes that being reckless is one benefit of knowing that you're dying. She starts to argue with him about having the surgery but he kisses her. Then she starts to tell him how much Spencer needs him but has to stop because Devlin shows up with news of a new drug that will keep him alive AND seeing Emily indefinitely. Emily takes it all in as Devlin asks for another ten million dollars. Nik sighs and then tells him no.
Nikolas and Emily are lying together on his sofa. He tells her that the drugs are working because he hasn't had any blackouts, and she points out that he is seeing her less because he knows this is wrong. He asks what's so wrong with wanting to share his life with her? She says that he's lying to everyone and is so afraid to live without her that he's willing to die. He tells her that he doesn't have anything without her in his life. They both cry at the thought of it, but she tells him that he has to let her go.
Back at Wyndemere Nik begs Emily not to leave him. Nadine barges in to tell him they need to get a few things straight! She tells Nik that he's throwing his life away on a fantasy and starts throwing (toy) train pieces at "Emily" in order to prove that she's not really there. Finally, Nik admits that Emily told him that she won't be around anymore. Nadine tells him that at least the dead woman and he worked it out. She calls him obsessed and berates him for ruining their great afternoon together. On her way out the door, she turns her ankle on one of the toys. Nik puts her on the couch and tells her to spend the night.
Nik and Nadine have gone into Wyndemere and are attempting to put together a train for Spencer's birthday. She asks for a Phillip's head and Nik has no idea what she's talking about. He beckons Alfred, who is busy breaking in the new chef. (Nadine clearly had no idea the extent of Prince Cassadine's life of luxury. She learns that he attended private schools and she decides to give him a crash course of everything he should've learned in high school.) Soon the train is together and they bring Spencer out to see it. Nik is clearly having fun and Emily appears to nod approvingly from the corner of the room. He quickly asks Nadine to leave and has the nanny come get Spencer. Nadine realizes that Nik sees Emily and promptly leaves.
At home, Nikolas struggles with what treatment option to take. Emily tells him that he has to go all the way and have the tumor removed; Nik doesn't want that because it means he will lose her. Devlin arrives and is uncomfortable that someone may have recognized him. Nik says not to worry and asks for more medication. Devlin reminds Nikolas that the medication isn't a cure and that it could backfire. Then, he says he wants $10 million to continue the treatments! Nik laughs but then goes along with the deal. Devlin leaves. Emily returns and tells Nikolas that he shouldn't be working with Devlin. He kisses her and says he can handle the doctor.
At GH, Nik is struggling against the anesthesia because he doesn't want to lose his images of Emily. Then he codes and as the surgeons rush to revive him, he has a vision of joining Emily. He assumes that they are in heaven and they push through a foggy door together. "Heaven has gargoyles too?" he jokes. She tells him that he's still alive, but she's not. She says that she brought him back to Wyndemere to remind him of everything he's leaving behind. She asks him to let go of her for Spencer's sake. Just as she tells him that he has to choose, he opens his eyes.
Dr. Devlin and Patrick both consult on Nikolas's case as Nadine and Alexis wait nervously. Patrick rushes off to get the OR prepped and Ian asks Nikolas why he didn't start the meds yet? Down the hall, Robin tells Patrick that she wants to assist in the surgery and Patrick says they will be using a cat scan that could be dangerous for the baby. She says that she'll wear a protective shield and thanks him for his concern. Soon, as the anesthesiologist starts to put Nik under. Nik tells Nadine that he wants to say good bye to Emily first. Nadine whispers that Emily won't leave without saying good bye. He looks up to the observation room and there she is. She walks over and gives him a kiss.
Alexis goes out to Wyndemere and finds Nikolas going over his business affairs and assumes that he's going somewhere. He says nowhere, but "things happen." Alexis can see where this is going, so she tells him that he needs the surgery. She says that she's here on business, as well, because the DA's office is satisfied that Diego "hung himself" accidentally. They talk about Diego's revenge and Nik says that he gets no real satisfaction from having him dead. Alexis tells him that he's just in mourning and a tumor is blocking his judgment. Nik corrects her by saying he's in hell and he is NOT having surgery. Alexis argues with him over it and reminds him that he has a son! Emily watches on as Alexis angrily lists all the people who love him. Nikolas pours himself a drink and grows increasingly angry. She tells him that he'll stop his living will and have him declared insane. Finally Emily speaks up and tells him that she will stop him if Alexis can't.

Anti-T cell strategies in asthma
Rent the article at a discountRent now
* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
Chronic asthma is characterised by inflammation of the airways. Although corticosteroids are effective therapy, the risk benefit ratio is unacceptable in a minority of patients requiring chronic and high dose corticosteroid therapy because of adverse effects. There is accumulating circumstantial evidence that the CD4+ T-cell plays a central role in the pathogenesis of chronic asthma. Therapeutic strategies directed specifically at this cell type may offer a novel approach. Controlled clinical trials of cyclosporin A were effective in both chronic asthma and in a model of provoked asthma. Other immunomodulators such as FK506, rapamycin and mycophenolic acid may be useful given their modes of action on the T lymphocyte. The use of monoclonal antibody therapy directed towards these cells and T-cell peptide specific immunotherapy have been evaluated in preliminary studies and demonstrated promising results. Strategies targeting T cell co-stimulatory molecules and T-cell derived cytokines may be of therapeutic utility.

MU Jazz Fest showcases talent
HUNTINGTON -- There was rhythm in the air Thursday night during the opening of the 44th annual Marshall University Jazz Festival at the Joan C. Edwards Performing Arts Center.
The weekend event kicked off with an opening performance by The Patriot jazz ensemble from Parkersburg High School, which earned the spot of this year's honor ensemble through a competitive audition process.
Headlining this year's show will be The Airmen of Note, which is considered to be the premier jazz ensemble of the U.S. Air Force. The Thundering Herd All-Star Big Band will open that show, which begins at 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 2, at the Joan C. Edwards Performing Arts Center.
Before Saturday's big performance, the Marshall University Alumni Big Band and the Marshall University 12.0, along with guest artists, will put on a show at 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 1, also at the center.
Tickets to each performance are free, but they are required and can be picked up prior to each night's performance at the Joan C. Edwards box office at the performing arts center.

Why you should promote my Instagram profile?
If you have been thinking that getting exposure on is a very difficult and tiring experience, then I must tell you the truth that it surely is. Let us face it; if you want your profile to be popular, you have to promote your profile to have more fans. However, the million dollar question here is what shall we do together to make that big bang?
Well the way that everybody appreciates – the honest way and the slow boring way – would be to let people take the time to follow you. This would only mean that you are wasting precious time and time is of the essence here. You need a bang so you need supporters like yesterday – not tomorrow or not the day after that, but yesterday! This would only mean that when people do find out about you, you would be the best thing of the previous decade. People by then would have moved to better things.
So if you need to make that bang yesterday and if you need to become the next best thing, you need fans and now you can easily get them. This would be an investment for a fresh and quick start. You get these fans, who will like and follow your work. Their liking and following would create a flutter or let's say a butter fly effect in the internet and the real world and steadily and soon enough you would find more followers.
By acquiring new fans you are not going to make your business into a profit making machine that minute, however, you would be able to build a better credibility and a base. This would also enable you to have a better recognition in the internet market easily.
Invest For A Better Tomorrow
As you know already Instagram is the happening social media networking site this year. To be the most popular person, it takes a long time or it takes to be a celebrity who can pose! Since we are running a respectable business there isn't going to be much posing and there isn't going to be much waiting. Time is money hence the sooner we get the fans the better it is.
In reality, getting the fans or the likes is going to take a lot of time.
When you consider Instagram followers from Misshapes, you would become more credible and visible. You can make the best first impression and grab a lot of attention.
We Are The Best Hands Down
We, at Misshapes, let you have the best of the pick and we bring you custom made packages that will suit your business need. We have built a trust base with over one million customers who can easily vouch for our quality work and our credibility. We have 12 years of experience in social network marketing and have helped struggling business owners make a name for them in the internet world.
We cater to single-man business ventures with our $3 dollar package and at the same time also offer packages up to $100 for small or medium sized businesses.
Along with the quality, we offer delivery of fans within minutes of buying them. We also have the best customer support in the market to provide you with a memorable after purchase service. Our prices are rock bottom as you can see and our client base is the entire testimonial that you would need about the quality of the work we provide.
WE Can Help YOU
Promote your profile with us, we will help you advertise your page easily. These fans are delivered to you in minutes and are destined to stay with you for the longer haul. We can make the internet world see you for who you are – Credible and Trustworthy.
Added Perks?
There are over 100 million users on Instagram and those 100 million users would have to be your reasons to be on it. Each of these users is your prospect. Each of these people can bring about a change in the way you run business. But who is going to tell them that you exist? How much noise can your seven or eight supporters make? You need more than that and you deserve more than that.
We can help you locate what you deserve. We can help you locate any number of fansthat you want. We are known for our credibility in the market and we have a name that business owners such as yourself know us well by. We have helped businesses stand out and we have created names in the minds of followers that can never be wiped.
We can now do all of that and more for your business as well and we can do all of this together easily. Try our promotion service and buy instagam followers, you will be amazed!

Here's a perfect excuse to use fresh beetroot in season and when the weather is starting to turn all the more cooler at nights. Beetroot soup (Borscht,borsch, borshch, borsht, or bortsch) has been adopted by many european countries where it's unique earthy flavour and vivid colour is savoured.
Base Stock:
Firstly you need to make a stock
Heat the oil in a large saucepan and, when really hot, brown the pieces of pork and onion, keeping the heat high so they caramalise turning brownish to just black at the edges. This gives the stock a good strong flavour.
When you're happy with the colour (after about 6 minutes), add 2 pints (1.2 litres) water, the bay leaf, carrots and parsley stalks, followed by a good seasoning of salt and freshly milled pepper.
As soon as it begins to simmer, turn the heat down and let it simmer very gently without a lid for 40 minutes.
Strain it through a sieve into a bowl, throw out the stock ingredients and rinse the saucepan to use again.
While the stock is simmering you can prepare the beetroot.
Place beetroot in a saucepan, adding enough boiling water to just cover it, then add a pinch of salt.
Put on a lid and simmer gently for 40 minutes or until tender when pierced with a skewer.
After that, drain off the water, then cover the beetroot with cold water to cool it down. As soon as it's cool enough to handle, take off the skin.
Reserve one whole beetroot (about 110 g) for the garnish and cut the rest into cubes.
Transfer it to the saucepan in which you made the stock, add the stock, bring to simmering point, cover and simmer gently for 20 minutes.
Using a draining spoon, transfer the beetroot to a food processor, and while it's running, add the flour and butter paste and the soup stock, followed by 75 ml of soured cream.
When it's all blended pour it back into the saucepan, add the lemon juice, taste to check the seasoning and re-heat very gently, without letting it come to the boil.
Grate the reserved beetroot on the fine side of the grater. Then serve the soup in warmed soup bowls, swirl in the remaining soured cream and scatter the grated beetroot on top as a garnish.
To avoid hands the same colour as the soup it may be wise to use disposable gloves while handling the beetroot. It's also advisable that you use a stockpot or saucepan large enough to hold aproximately 3.5 litres.
» Metric Converter
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc are the best wines to pair with Beetroot Soup.

The truth of the matter is that if Obamacare is not overturned by the Supreme Court in June, many more people will have to turn to medical tourism just to find care at all, as Obamacare will make it very hard to see a doctor. You will also be forced to pay for insurance (that you can hardly even use) or fined if you don't. Also, if the government is subsidizing our healthcare, they will feel they have the right to dictate to us what care we need and what we don't. It will not be about what is better for us, it will be about what is most "cost efficient," including whether your being alive at all is even "cost efficient" anymore.
The lack of free market medicine we have in this country is exactly why we have such high healthcare costs. If insurance and government interference didn't keep prices so high and patients could see any doctor they choose, doctors would actually have to compete for your business, like other industries do. Competition in any industry only improves it. It forces businesses to improve their product and find ways to lower prices. Competition in any industry, especially the medical industry, is a good thing.
That is exactly what we're all about here at MediBid. We provide access, transparency, choice, quality, and privacy to our patients, things you cannot get when insurance or government is controlling your healthcare. We provide not only global medical tourism, but also domestic medical tourism for your convenience. Doctors from all over the country and the globe must compete for your business. You choose the doctor and procedure that is right for you. Register and make a Request today!

This year, a few hundred thousand intrepid American travellers will head to places like Thailand and Costa Rica, in search of something that they can't find in the United States. They won't be looking for Mayan ruins or ancient Buddhist temples, but something a bit more practical: affordable medical care. These medical tourists will be getting root canals, knee surgeries, and hip replacements at foreign hospitals. If health-care costs in the U.S. keep rising—and especially if Obamacare is overturned by the Supreme Court—more of us may soon be joining them.
To read the entire article:Click Here
At MediBid, we restore market forces to medical care. Doctors get to set their own rates based on their training, experience, and outcomes, and patients get to shop for medical care across state lines and international borders. Many times with MediBid, you will find procedures that are more effective than procedures allowed, or covered by health plans. Transparency and competition are the only way to achieve reasonable costs. Many of our employer clients offering group health insurance through MediBid save $5,000 per employee per year. Those are substantial savings. Patients are saving an average of 48% vs. insurance discounted rates, or 80% vs. retail. Contact us for more information.

Two Students Chosen for Internships at Los Alamos
RE: Two Denmark Technical College Students Chosen for Internships at Los Alamos
Denmark, S.C. – June 26, 2014 – Two Denmark Technical College students are currently out in New Mexico gaining valuable work skills as summer interns at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. Ms. Sully Olivo, is a native of the Dominican Republic and is an Associate in Arts major. Corey Freeman, from Aiken, SC, is a Computer Technology major.
The students will be working at the Undergraduate Student (UGS) Program at Los Alamos on their summer internships for undergraduate students. The program is a year-round educational program that provides students with relevant research experience while they are pursuing an undergraduate degree. This educational program is designed to complement the students' education with work experience related to their chosen field of study with appointments in both the technical and professional fields. The mission of Los Alamos is to solve national security challenges by delivering science and technology to protect our nation and promote world stability.
Ms. Avis Gathers, VP for Student Affairs will be travelling to the site, she says "My visit to Los Alamos is to support our students, see them perform their job duties first hand, and to also have greater insight into Department of Energy's expectations so that the College can prepare students for future internships as we develop our partnership through an HBCU collaboration in a developing Cyber-Security initiative. These internships will provide valuable work experience for our students."
In the past, several DTC students became summer interns for on-the-job experience in their majors. DTC had interns serving at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, Calif.; NASA-Johnson Space Center, Houston, Texas and Savannah River Nuclear Solutions, Aiken, S.C.
This is a wonderful opportunity for two special students who chose to come to Denmark Technical College "where great things are happening." Congratulations to both Ms. Olivo and Mr. Freeman for all of their hard work.
Denmark Technical College is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges to award Associate Degrees, Diplomas, and Certificates. For more information call 803-793-5176 or go to www.denmarktech.edu.

........ but DON'T use the standard lenses that come with them,..... They SHATTER!!!!
Step 1: Calling All Airsofters...
I shot both lenses at POINT BLANK at 340fps (which is under most sites limit) and the standard one SHATTERED, even popping out the retaining ring, which means blood, crying, eye injury and even blind.
Watch This
This is a slow motion lens test between a standard S10 and a replacement one, by my good friend Greatarrdvark.
Step 2: ESSENTIAL UPGRADE
They are 2mm thick Solid, Clear Lexan Polycarbonate, handcut to fit your S10 lenses perfectly. I have tested these with an upgraded 450fp G&G Scar-L and they had no problems.
One site Marshall tested them point blank at 500fps and they survived totally intact.
Step 3: This Is Top Secret.....
Step 4: S10 Lens Removal
S10 Lens Removal
Then go here to prepare your filter
S10 Filter Preparation
Step 5: Where Do I Get My Lenses From..?
S10 SAS Gas Mask Airsoft Replacement Lenses - ESSENTIAL UPGRADE TO S10 Gas Masks
Step 6: Fitting New Lenses..
Test the lenses are firmly in place before starting your skirmish.
Step 7: Testing New Lenses:
i bought some and they're great, but i can't find you on ebay anymore.
Can you make lenses for Russian respirators also, or any custom sizes, like for torches?
I have a couple recommendations.
1. When your wearing a gas mask and running around your going to generate a lot of heat and sweat. In 20 min People will become claustrophobic. They will take off their mask. This is particularly dangerous when little plastic pellets are flying about. I know a guy who is blind in one eye from not wearing safety gear during paintball.
2. The filters on surplus gas masks are old and expired. The old ones contain hazardous chemicals. I would just take it off and dispose of it as hazmat. If you want to look cool then just buy a brand new C2A1 filter from 3m It uses the same NATO 40 mm fittings and will fit it nicely.

As discussed in our May 2004 Alert, the Florida Legislature has adopted
new rules governing Florida homebuilders and homeowners associations. The
two bills adopted by the Legislature and signed by the Governor — Senate
Bill 2984 and Senate Bill 1184 — have now been reconciled and codified in
Florida Statutes under Chapter 720, and the inconsistent statutory section
references have been corrected. Most notably, the required homeowners association
disclosure has been codified at Section 720.401, Florida Statutes, and not
720.601, as provided in Senate Bill 1184. Florida homebuilders should update
their contract materials to include the new disclosure with the correct
statute section references.

EDWARDSVILLE, IL (KTVI)– Those giant piles of snow near the curb could turn into a real danger for kids. That`s the warning from Matt Taul, Edwardsville Street Department Superintendent.
"At the end of some cul-de-sacs they are 10 feet high," Taul.
His concern is that kids will end up building igloos or forts and won`t be able to hear the snow plows coming.
"Parents should educate their kids about the danger of snow plows," said Taul.
He said crews are now starting to expand the width of their clearing efforts and will soon be clearing streets from curb to curb. That means plows will be inching closer to where the piles of snow are located.
Taul said crews work in teams of two. He`s told crews to stop when they approach a giant snow pile in a subdivision and check for any children.
"I have heard stories of other people checking piles prior to plowing them, and you know, running kids off," said Taul.
He said 98% of the roads in Edwardsville are passable.

An exuberant audience filled the Bucks County Playhouse to cheer and heap adoration on celebrated singer Linda Eder as she headlined this year's edition of Bucks County Cabaret and helped raise an impressive $131,650.
Eder's vocal dexterity was on full display at the historic New Hope, PA, theatre as she rolled through an array of Broadway classics, standards and pop hits. Her set list included everything from Irving Berlin to ABBA, Andrew Lloyd Weber to Barbra Streisand.
"I grew up as very much a Minnesota farm girl," Eder told the captivated crowd on October 4, 2014. "I dreamed of being on stage, but I never thought I'd be a singer because I was too shy. Little did I know that one day I'd be on a Broadway stage."
Eder originated the role of Lucy in Jekyll & Hyde and has become one of the most popular concert singers in the country. She first burst onto the music scene during an unprecedented 12-week championship run on TV's original Star Search.
And while reminiscing throughout the evening about her personal journey, Eder also underscored the goal of the evening – supporting Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. She even enthusiastically joined in a spirited live auction immediately after her performance, helping to raise even more for Broadway Cares.
Tom Viola, executive director of Broadway Cares, said: "Linda personified the community spirit in Bucks County and the surrounding area. She shared her artistic talents while giving graciously of her time to help those less fortunate. It's a trait that we consistently and continually see from all in the Bucks County area. Their longtime commitment to providing help and showing compassion for those affected by HIV/AIDS makes it an honor for us to produce Bucks County Cabaret for a third year."
Eder opened the show with "Through the Eyes of Love (Theme from Ice Castles)," which helped propel her success on Star Search. She went on to effortless weave her way through a jazzy version of "Stormy Weather," Irving Berlin's "Blue Skies," Henry Mancini and Johnny Mercer's lonely "Charade" from the 1963 movie of the same name and a sultry "At Last," first made famous by Etta James.
She showed her lighter side with the delightful "Sam, You Made the Pants Too Long," a parody written in 1940 by comedian Milton Berle which became Barbra Streisand`s follow-up hit to "Second Hand Rose" in 1966.
Eder tapped into Broadway with the classics "Don't Cry for Me, Argentina" from Evita, the first professional musical she ever saw, "Climb Every Mountain" from The Sound of Music, which was the only high school theatrical production in which she performed, and "Someone Like You" from her Broadway debut in Jekyll & Hyde.
From the pop charts, she reached back to ABBA for a fun version of "Fernando." Joking that she feared the wrath of the Internet if she broke with her tradition, she concluded her show with her signature song "Vienna," which was written by Frank Wildhorn and Gary Benson, the title song from Man of La Mancha and a heavenly version of "Over the Rainbow."
Eder was accompanied by music director William Stein and Peter Calo on guitar.
Following the performance, BC/EFA friend and favorite auctioneer Lorna Kelly led the lively auction that included once-in-a-lifetime backstage meet-and-greet experiences with Hugh Jackman at The River, Idina Menzel at If/Then, Alan Cumming at Cabaret and the national touring production of Kinky Boots, as well as a special evening with Eder herself at her upcoming holiday concert.
Broadway Cares awarded $5.7 million in grants in 2014 to more than 450 AIDS and family service organizations nationwide. In Pennsylvania, 25 organizations received more than $260,000, including $10,000 in support to Bucks County-based F.A.C.T. – Fighting AIDS Continuously Together.
This year's Bucks County Cabaret was sponsored by The New York Times, Showtime Networks and United Airlines, with special thanks to Bridge Street Foundation, Kevin and Sherri Daugherty, and the staff and crew of Bucks County Playhouse, led by Producing Director Alex Fraser and Executive Producer Robyn Goodman.

Digital Marketing Alternatives to SEO
In today's world of interactive media which is available through the Web 2.0 platform, building a website in itself is inadequate for keeping a competitive edge. Even for those who have a great product or service to offer available at a reasonable price or a website design that is interactive and attractive, there has to be a creative and effective way of increasing the volume of traffic to the site. A well designed SEO strategy can be a useful tool for generating consistent traffic; but part of a good web marketing strategy will include some form of online advertising. The type of advertising used may depend largely on what the budget allows as well as the targeted audience. There are some free methods that can be employed but it is very difficult to improve on the ease and speed of a paid advertising campaign.
Banner Advertising
The concept of banner advertising is a very simple one and is actually older than the search engines we are familiar with today. In its most basic state, a relevant website is chosen on which the banner is displayed. The banner usually has an attention-getter like a catchy headline and image. It should target a particular audience who will click on the banner and be directed to the desired site. The average click through rate for banner advertising is roughly between 2 and 5 percent. If the banner is on a high traffic site where many internet users will see it, this can be very profitable for increasing traffic to the site. Pricing is generally based on a certain number of impressions. A business pays for their ad to show up a certain number of times regardless of whether or not anyone clicks on the advertisement. The average cost for banner advertisements is between 30 and 50 cents per one thousand impressions. Premium websites can charge more because of their size and popularity which provides the opportunity for more people to see the ad. Although this in an option we do not recommend this strategy as it does not target a specific audience and may be costly; also the bounce rate that you get from banner traffic will likely be very high.
Pay-per-click Advertising
Google Adwords or pay-per-click advertising can be an excellent choice for businesses which have enough financial resources to invest in targeted traffic. Pay-per-click advertising is similar in a way to the basic principles used in an SEO campaign in order to gain targeted traffic. When an individual types in a keyword or keyword phrase into a search query, targeted ads will appear with the search results. This form of web advertising can be very effective for driving those interested in specific products or services to a site which can meet the need. The advantage of pay-per-click over banner advertising is that the business only has to pay for the times the advertisement is actually clicked by an interested party. This can be a very competitive market and will require a decent sized initial investment along with some careful research. But it can be well worth it when it comes down to ROI. It's difficult to state even an estimate of the cost per click since it can be as low as 50 cents per click; or it can go up to a substantial amount depending on the competition, the industry and keywords being used in the campaign. Additionally, PPC traffic often has a high bounce rate as well, thus reducing the value of the traffic.
Newsletter Advertising
Webmasters or email programs sometimes make ad space available in their newsletter or e-zine. This form of advertising works similar to a magazine or newspaper ad where a business or organization pays for an ad space. In web marketing and advertising this space can take up a large portion of a page, be as simple as a text link or any size in between. The advertiser pays the newsletter publisher according to the size of the ad. Prices can also depend on the publisher and the type and size of the audience reached. Making use of an email campaign by purchasing ad space can give a site or business a lot of exposure especially if the newsletter is from a relevant or related business type. This form of advertising can be flexible enough to fit into any size budget and is relatively inexpensive when compared to other forms of online advertising.

Alongside a revival of interest in Thomism in philosophy, scholars have realised its relevance when addressing certain contemporary issues in bioethics. This book offers a rigorous interpretation of Aquinas's metaphysics and ethical thought, and highlights its significance to questions in bioethics. Jason T. Eberl applies Aquinas's views on the seminal topics of human nature and morality to key questions in bioethics at the margins of human life questions which are currently contested in the academia, politics and the media such as: When does a human person's life begin? How should we define and clinically determine a person's death? Is abortion ever morally permissible? How should we resolve the conflict between the potential benefits of embryonic stem cell research and the lives of human embryos? Does cloning involve a misuse of human ingenuity and technology? What forms of treatment are appropriate for irreversibly comatose patients? How should we care for patients who experience unbearable suffering as they approach the end of life? Thomistic Principles and Bioethicspresents a significant philosophical viewpoint which will motivate further dialogue amongst religious and secular arenas of inquiry concerning such complex issues of both individual and public concern.

Back in June we reported that Apple was getting ready to introduce new Bluetooth Low Energy hearing aid technology it developed to significantly improve the current crop of products on the market. Apple expected partners in its MFi program to introduce hearing aid and cochlear implant products using the technology this year, and last night we got a look at the first MFi hearing aid about to launch globally this quarter during the Bluetooth SIG event at CES 2014. GN's Resound Linx is trickling out in select markets as we speak but a full global launch is about to happen sometime this quarter.
Not only is Resound Linx the world's smallest hearing aid and the first Made for iPhone/iPad/iPod through Apple's official program, the connection to an iPhone over the 2.4GHz frequency and Apple's advancements in low powered Bluetooth tech for hearing aid products will also provide some other first of their kind features for the Linx. The hearing aid will essentially also function as a high-quality headset, allowing users to answer calls, listen to turn-by-turn directions, and much more on their iOS device. The most notable advancement, however, is the ability to fine tune the hearing aid experience through a dedicated iOS app:
Imagine using your ReSound Smart™ app to fine-tune the treble/bass of a concert – or a dinner conversation. Or geo-tag places so your hearing aid goes into your preferred program for work… the gym… or your favorite café. With a swipe and a tap you can unlock new reasons to love your ReSound LiNX hearing aids.
Of course the possibilities are endless with the opportunity for app developers to build apps specifically for the product. There's no official word on pricing or which specific markets it will launch in the coming weeks, but it will sell for a small premium on top of the roughly $3000 price tag for other high-end hearing products the company sells.

Is it bad that I only want this for it's bluetooth streaming capabilities?? I just want to be a cyborg (without going full on Google Glass that is).
Bluetooth Low Energy should greatly enhance the user experience with hearing aids. At present, an intermediary device is often needed between the hearing aids and the bluetooth device. Such intermediary devices are often worn around the neck and connect to the hearing aids via telecoil induction or some other form of proprietary wireless protocol. All bluetooth pairing (with other bluetooth devices) is then managed with the intermediary device. Opening up the wide array of bluetooth devices to hearing aid users without the requirement of an intermediary device, and without vast losses in battery performance, should be celebrated by the industry and users alike. I am keen to see how the battery performance rates on this new crop of devices, and whether Bluetooth Low Energy really provides the promised range for hearing aid users. I am also excited about the possibility of such devices for non-hearing-impaired users, in relation to wearable computing and streaming sound quality. As an audiologist I am weary of the self adjustment features, but hopefully Resound has ensured limited frequency spectrum modifications. Vast adjustments above professionally fitted volume levels could place valuable residual hearing at risk in hearing impaired users. If anyone has any personal experiences with these devices, please contact me via twitter.
From my understanding, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is the 2.4 GHz protocol being used to connect these new hearing aids to the Apple devices. However, I am not sure that the devices will be directly connectable (via BLE) to non-Apple devices which incorporate BLE. From wikipedia it looks like the following Apple devices support BLE:
iPhone 4S and later
iPad (3rd generation and later)
iPod Touch (5th generation)
iPad Mini (all generations)
This is not the world's smallest hearing aid as is stated above. I'm also leery of the battery size in these devices. If it is a size 10a battery ( the smallest battery available to hearing aids) I'm sure you will be changing it every few hours if you use the wireless technology constantly.
According to these guys, it uses 312 batteries: http://appalachianaudiology.com/blog/?p=522
Any idea how long the 312 battery would last?
312 batteries typically last 5-7 days with current hearing aid technology. Streaming will of course cut down on battery life of the hearing aids and the phone. Most people won't stream constantly though. To use for phone calls, the remote application, and occasional streaming won't likely cut the battery life by much. In my experience though, the patients that really want to use the newest features like these aren't nearly as concerned amount battery life.
Overal l'm pretty bummed that wasn't more "earpiece wearables" announced at CES this year… considering how much of a focus there was on wearables (of all types) I'm surprised that more companies aren't trying out various bluetooth-enabled wearable earpieces that actually look decent.
Currently I use the first-gen Motorola Bluetooth Elite Sliver for music/podcast/audiobook listening while driving, doing housework, running errands or basically anytime that I'm by myself. Overall it's pretty good though it's still too large to wear all the time without looking like a dude with a bluetooth piece on his ear (when not in use I keep it in my pants pocket.)
My ideal product would be a pair of non-descrp looking glasses with a bone-conduction audio built in. Nothing like Google Glass… no HUD, camera or touchpad. Ideal would have enough battery to last 8-10 on standby with 2-3 hours of playback. Just nice looking glasses with headphones (preferably bone-conduction so that I can still interact with the world) built in. Anyone know of any product out there like that?
I have a Siemans bluetooth hearing aid and the damned thing doesn't ever work properly, and on top of that it requires me to have the keychain remote to use the bluetooth. So I hope that this one doesn't have that kind of problem. My hearing aid is a few years old, so I would think that this one doesn't require a keychain adapter to actually work.
I was sorely disappointed in mine…
This is great, now lets just hope they'll open it up for Android soon
This is great news! I have been holding off on getting hearing aids until a bluetooth connection was available. The proprietary control box my wife now has to carry is ridiculous in this age of smartphones.
I agree with the audiologist who wrote that users adjusting amplification of different frequencies in their hearing aids is crazy. Hearing aids are tuned to compensate for the specific weaknesses in the user's ears and should not be changed except by the audiologist. But their are other big opportunities.
1. In concert halls, churches, auditoriums, and theaters hearing aid wearers would love to have their custom tuned hearing aids pickup sound through their smartphones. A local wifi connection listed in the program or projected on a screen would enable them to connect. This will be far superior to sound loops. And its a universal solution.
2.. In homes and cars hearing aid wearers would love to have their hearing aids pick up their TV sound and their car audio signals. Smartphone apps and little transmitters can easily be developed for this. It will prevent a lot of arguments.
3. Believe it or not, the most exciting concept for old people will be finding a way to link smartphones for multiple hearing aid wearers sitting together in a small group. Hearing aid users sitting around a table in a noisy restaurant or other place have great difficulty hearing each other due to background noise. The development may include bluetooth microphones each person wears on their collar or a smartphone sitting on the table. This will eventually be available for people wearing hearing aids from all manufacturers and carrying smartphones with all operating systems. If you know any old people, you know their will be a huge market for this.
Developers hit the Go Button!!!
I have been using this hearing aid for two weeks due to a moderate/borderline severe hearing loss in my right ear. It works as advertised. The built in hearing aid functions in my iPhone OS, along with the very simple company app have allowed me to realize all that I have been missing. The only downsize is that because I use the aid's streaming capability, I've been using up a battery every 2-3 days or so.

1/2 cup
diced bacon
4 medium
potatoes, peeled and chopped
1 medium
onion, chopped
2 cups
3 cups
cream-style corn
2 teaspoons
ground black pepper to taste
2 cups
This chowder was a big hit at a church dinner! I modified the recipe by mixing everything together in a large crock pot and cooked overnight. I followed the directions of adding the half and half at the end. Great recipe.
This was a great starter recipe for me. I didn't use bacon. I substituted chicken stock for the water. I added chicken, green bell peppers, and substituted fresh corn for canned. I made a roux with butter and flour to thicken it. After adding the heavy cream and a pinch of nutmeg, I had a soup that got rave reviews.

I have been looking for an easy, tasty corn chowder recipe, and this one fits the bill nicely! I used chicken broth instead of water, ham instead of bacon, two cans of cream corn and one whole kernal (undrained) and left the skin on the potatos. I served this with the Kentucky Biscuits from this site and have to say:
Yum! Yum! Yum!
Wow! This soup was so good. My husband is a big fan of corn chowder, as he orders it every time we go eat out. He said that this was the best he had ever had, and that this recipe was a keeper. I only made a few small adjustments. While cooking I left a bit more bacon grease in, and I also added chiken bouillon to the 2 cups of water. To top it off I sprinkled shredded chedder cheese on the top and let it melt a little before serving. I will not be looking for another corn chowder recipe, this is the best.
Awesome corn chowder! I made a couple changes, but it is so delicious! I substituted 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth for water and 2 cups evaporated milk for half-and half and added 2 tsp ground thyme....Fabulous! Thanks!
This one is a keeper! I followed the original recipe except added chicken broth instead of water. Super easy to make and absolutely delicious. Tasted even better for left-overs, the bacon flavor was even more developed. Will definitely make again.
Oh, sooooo good! I made it exactly as the recipe says and it was awesome. Have tried various corn chowder recipes before (usually with chicken) and never cared for them, but the bacon was just right! Be sure not to skip the step of lightly browning the potatoes and onions with the bacon and drippings as I think this really develops the flavors. Will probably try it with milk instead of the half-and-half and may possibly try reducing the salt, but otherwise, this is a wonderful recipe. Thanks for sharing!
I thought this recipe was very good. We used vegetable oil instead of bacon and it still turned out great, so if anyone wants a vegetarian freindly version i sugest using oil.The taste was very good and the potatos added great texture.

CRESTVIEW — A cyberattack on two physician practices owned by North Okaloosa Medical Center has been "eradicated," according to parent company Community Health Systems.
Community Health is working with federal law enforcement authorities in their investigation and will support prosecution of those responsible for the attack, the company said in a statement.
The cyberattack, which possibly took place in April or June, took information on more than 4 million patients from Community Health Systems' computer network, according to the company. Limited personal identification data belonging to some patients seen at North Okaloosa Physician Group and Gateway Medical Clinic during the past five years was compromised during the attack.
Transferred information excludes any medical or credit card information, but includes names, addresses, birthdates, telephone numbers and social security numbers.
"Right now, our clinics are the only ones that we know of that the patients are affected," said Rachel Neighbors, NOMC's marketing director. "No one from the hospital side (had their data stolen)."
Neighbors said the clinics will notify all patients affected and offer them free identify theft protection.
"Anybody who's affected, no matter what the scope, we'll help them get all those things resolved," Neighbors said.
Tomi Galin, Community Health Systems' senior vice president of marketing, confirmed that Santa Rosa Medical Center was one of the facilities targeted by the cyberattack, but did not clarify how many local patients were affected. Community Health Systems will notify those patients by letter and also offer them free identity theft protection, she said.

Stream Networks Bonded Broadband Overview
What is bonded broadband?
Bonded Broadband allows customers to physically bond two or more broadband connections together to form a single virtual pipe. Bonding broadband provides enhanced download and upload speeds as well as providing a resilient connection by bonding different broadband technologies, such as annexm, ADSL Max, ADSL 2+ and SDSL via multiple carriers and independent DSLAMS.
How does Bonded Broadband by Stream Networks work?
Stream Networks Bonded Broadband solution allows customers to bond Stream Networks broadband, or ISP independent broadband in to a single connection. Stream Networks provide the customer with a new Internet facing IP range, and traffic is routed to our core bonding appliances located within our 21CN resilient Gigabit network.
At this point the traffic is split and diversely routed down the customers individual broadband circuits where the packets are reassembled by our StreamBOND customer premises equipment.
What equipment is required to bond broadband?
To enable Stream Networks Bonded Broadband solution the customer requires two or more DSL connections each assigned a minimum of 2 useable IP addresses (/30 subnet), one for the customers broadband router and a spare useable address for the StreamBOND appliance.
A core StreamBOND appliance is required at the customer premises to bond the connections together, also a suitable firewall is required to connect the LAN to the bonded connection and provide suitable firewalling.
Does bonding broadband increase latency?
Bonding two or more circuits together does not put any additional unnecessary latency on the connection. Stream Networks bonded broadband solution is suitable for running business critical applications from Voice Over IP to VPN's and video.
Can I use my existing DSL links via my current ISP?
Yes Stream Networks can provide an ISP independent bonded solution that allows you to utilise your existing DSL connections. Alternatively migrate one existing connection on to the StreamNET Network to provide diversely routed and resilient connectivity.
