MASSENA The Massena Volunteer Rescue Squad saw a dramatic decrease in its reimbursements last year, according to a member of the squads board of managers.
Rescue squad board member Roger M. Bennett told the Massena Town Council last week that reimbursements from insurance companies for 2012 amounted to only 37.53 percent of what was billed. Thats a significant decrease from 2011, when the rescue squad received 64.3 percent reimbursement for its emergency services.
I know we wont recover 100 percent, but theyre not paying like they used to pay, Mr. Bennett said. Ive never had reimbursements this low.
The decrease in revenue is a serious concern for the rescue squad, a volunteer service that relies on insurance reimbursements for funding. Mr. Bennett said the squad had budgeted for $450,000 in reimbursements last year, but ended up receiving $363,530. Noticing the sharp decrease, Mr. Bennett said, the squad curtailed spending. The squad underspent its 2012 budget of $449,000 by $83,000.
When the funds were down, we backed off on buying equipment, Mr. Bennett said. I dont think theres anything we missed that was critical.
Mr. Bennett said there typically is a three-month lag from the time the service is used and the date the insurance company pays, so more reimbursements from 2012 calls are expected.
The decline in reimbursements came during one of the rescue squads busiest years. The squad responded to 2,312 calls and provided 1,853 transports, an increase of about 60 percent since 2006, when the squad responded to 1,441 calls.
Mr. Bennett is afraid that if reimbursement rates dont pick up, the squad might not be able to purchase essential equipment in years ahead. It will impact our purchase of equipment, radios, mortgage payments, insurance, he said. All those bills have to be paid.
The rescue squad isnt the only organization suffering from low reimbursements.
A lack of reimbursements for medical service, otherwise known as bad debt, has long been an issue hurting the finances of Massena Memorial Hospital. In 2012, the hospital wrote off approximately $3.2 million of bad debt, during a year when the hospital generated a net loss of almost $2.4 million, according to Tina R. Corcoran, senior director of public relations and planning at the hospital.
If not for the bad debt, we would have been $800,000 in the black, Ms. Corcoran said.
The hospital has experienced annual bad debt of about $3.2 million for the past three years, more than what it used to be. In 2007, its bad debt was approximately $2.5 million, according to Sean M. Curtin, chief financial officer for the hospital. Bad debt comes from providing medical care to people who dont have insurance or to people who have insurance but do not pay their copayments or deductibles.
Ms. Corcoran said bad debt is an issue facing hospitals across the region and the country.
Its hard, she said. We have to do more with less.
She said hospitals have the responsibility to provide care to patients, regardless of whether they can pay.
We still have to take of the people in our community, she said. Its what we do.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — The collapse of the bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox triggered shock, outrage, and some I-told-you-sos among users of the digital currency Tuesday as well as renewed calls for regulation.
Response from U.S. authorities stopped short of condemnation, however. Instead, they attributed Mt. Gox's meltdown, which helped send prices on other exchanges to a three-month low, to a symptom of a young industry.
Mt. Gox resigns from Bitcoin Foundation
The CEO of Mt. Gox resigned from the Bitcoin Foundation over the weekend,
"As any industry matures, it will face growing pains and there will be individuals who believe they can use the fog of uncertainty to cover up their follies," said Sen. Tom Carper, head of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, in a statement. Still, he said the Mt. Gox news is "unacceptable" and called on U.S. policy makers to provide a clear set of regulations for bitcoin.
Late Tuesday, however, The Wall Street Journal reported that federal prosecutors based in New York had served Mt. Gox with a subpoena earlier this month. The report, citing an unnamed person familiar with the matter, said the subpoena included an order for Mt. Gox to preserve certain documents.
Benjamin Lawsky, New York state's superintendent of financial services, told CNBC he doesn't think the Mt. Gox scandal will harm bitcoin in the long term. "It may be a significant bump in the road for the development of bitcoin and virtual currencies, but I don't think it means they're going away or it's any kind of death knell," he told CNBC.
Their statements followed pages of online comments by Mt. Gox users, many of whom were now looking at the possibility that any bitcoin value stored at the exchange was worthless.
Mt. Gox, one of the oldest virtual trading venues and once the largest, told users Tuesday that all trading in the virtual currency on its exchange had been halted. It gave no information about why its website had been wiped clean of information and all transactions had stopped. "A decision was taken to close all transactions for the time being in order to protect the site and our users," Mt. Gox said in a short statement, its first update to users after trading had been halted for several hours.
Tuesday's complete trading halt on Mt. Gox was the latest in a series of halts and delays that have plagued the exchange in the past year, along with spotty customer service and a lack of available information for users. Financial authorities in Japan, where Mt. Gox has its physical headquarters, have said that there is nothing they can do for users with bitcoin tied up at Mt. Gox.
Read WSJ: Japan's authorities decline to step in on bitcoin
That knowledge has been a bitter pill for bitcoin's early adopters, particularly those who rode the surge in bitcoin prices from about $13 early last year to over $1,000 at the end of the year. Mt. Gox was once the hallmark bitcoin exchange and it continued to attract attention even as it gave up market share. But a new wave of bitcoin entrepreneurs, some of whose firms have attracted funding from high-profile investors, have been quick to dismiss Mt. Gox as a bad actor and emphasize that bitcoin itself remains viable.
"This tragic violation of the trust of users of Mt. Gox was the result of one company's actions and does not reflect the resilience or value of bitcoin and the digital currency industry," said chief executives of six other bitcoin exchanges and businesses, in a joint statement issued late Monday after Mt. Gox trading appeared to have been halted.
'I'm over Mt. Gox'
The statement from Tokyo-based Mt. Gox did little to comfort investors with holdings there. Jonathan Waller, 30, told MarketWatch he had more than 200 bitcoins in Mt. Gox, worth more than $27,000 on a price quoted on Mt. Gox 16 hours ago.
"My feeling is [that] they're never coming back," said Waller, who is a games developer based in Tokyo and has been involved in the bitcoin space for about three years.

Where to go
Chachoengsao, also known as Paet Rio, is located to the east of Bangkok in Thailand's central region. Chachoengsao is a fertile agricultural area fed by the Bang Pakong River. Mango is the most popular fruit grown in the province, and it is the location of the sacred Phra Phutthasothon Buddha image.Derived from Khmer, the name Chachoengsao means deep canal, while the name of Paet Rio (Paet means eight and Rio means stripes) is believed to have come from the method that dried fish (which are abundant in the area) were divided by eight stripes. The history of modern Chachoengsao dates back to the Ayutthaya Period, during the reign of King Phra Borom Tri Lokkanat, when most people lived along the banks of Bang Pakong River and its canals. Prior to that, based on archaeological assumptions, Bang Pakong Riverfront, like many other river basins worldwide, was a center of ancient civilization and habitat to a pre-historic populace. Five thousand year old skeletons and ornaments have been found at Khok Phanomadee, now a village in Amphoe Phanat Nikhom, Chonburi (once a dominion under Chachoengsao's sovereignty) providing the earliest evidence of this notion. According to geographers, between 7,000 and 2,000 B.C.E. the coastline where pre-historic communities resided was much farther inland. Thus, the assumption that Bangpakong people were forefathers of the renowned Ban Chiang men is a sensible assumption. Today, Phra Phutthasothon or Luang Pho Sothon is the center of traditional beliefs and faith for the current residents of Chachoengsao.

Here is what I have installed on my Desire.
3G Watchdog - to track mobile internet usage and quotas
Advanced Task Killer Free - Don't use it for autokill. Just there in case something doesn't close properly.
Astro - File manager
Bookmarks to SD - plugin to backup bookmarks to SD card
ConvertPad - Unit converter. Helpful, since I live overseas.
Dolphin Browser HD - I tried lots and I just prefer the ability to switch tabs easily in this one. Not perfect though.
LED Lite - Lights up the flash bulb on the Desire's camera. Very bright and comes in handy.
Goggles - For barcodes or just to play with.
Google Pinyin - Chinese input
Google Voice
Hanping CE - The best free Chinese dictionary I have found that stores on SD card - does not require web.
Lookout - Security and lost phone recovery.
MapDroyd - Download maps to store on SD card. Not as good as Google maps, but nice to have an offline version.
MLB.com At Bat
My Maps Editor - links to Google Maps, so I can create maps on my computer of places I want to go or plan a trip, and sync easily to the phone
Nesoid / SNesoid /Toss It / Solo Lite / Mahjong - to kill boredom
HTC Notes widget - I like that I can type or draw with my finger
Places Directory (Google) - better than a phone book
Screen Cut - Dolphin plugin to let me save screen shots of webpages for viewing later
Tasker - I am playing with the trial. I'm not thrilled with it but like the idea of having things turn on and off based on location/other parameters.
Voice Recorder - Handy for meetings or other things
Wifi Analyzer - Great for analyzing your home wifi (or your friends)
XiiaLive Lite - Not able to get Pandora here. This is the best similar thing I've found. Uses Shoutcast streams.
Edit - Recently added the following that I would also recommend:
SMS Translate: Automatically translates SMS received in another language using Google Translate. (Awesome for me, since my mobile provider and bank often send me SMS in Chinese.)
Startup Cleaner Pro: Let's me prevent applications (including stock apps) from loading at startup. Increased my boot speed quite a bit once I removed things that I only need to use when I open them (or don't use at all).
Flycast: Lets me listen to WAAF or WEEI on my phone. (Maybe not a big deal for you, but cool to have in China).

Customer Reviews for Dining Room Semi-Opaque Roman Window Shades
"Great shade!!"
By Jill from Valhalla, NY
I purchased the roman shade for my bathroom window which is small but I wanted something nice. I added on the open down for privacy in the bathroom. It was a perfect choice!!!View this product
By customer from Mesa, AZ
I could not be more pleased. I got the basil for a big kitchen window and it is just striking. It is very well made and the plume on the print slightly reflects light. I ordered top/down-bottom/up but originally received the blind without this feature. I called customer service and they immediately sent a new blind. Excellent product and customer service.View this product

Comments about Kompressor Pack:
The Kompressor pack is billed as a pack to use on day trips from base camp, and in that respect it performs perfectly. It's lightweight, comfortable, is hydration compatible, and holds a lot of gear for day trips. On top of that you can use it as a compression sack for soft items (i.e. your sleeping bag) in your main pack on the way to base camp. Pretty slick idea for not much money.

Three months after the Maine Turnpike Authority (MTA) introduced toll increases and a revised Commuter Discount Program, NEWS CENTER looks at the effect it is having on Maine drivers.
Many commuters say the new system is incomprehensible, that it discriminates against people who live in Lewiston-Auburn, York County and other areas, and that it doesn't deliver the promised discounts.
"The numbers don't make sense," says Bob Conklin who commutes from Turner to Portland. He says he's paying anywhere from one and a half to three times more than he paid under the old system.
MTA Director Peter Mills explains the new system, and says he understands why commuters distrust the MTA. He and legislators say under a new law passed last year, the MTA is under much greater scrutiny by the Legistlature, is much more transparent and much more efficient.

Truly one of the finest fish body oils on the market. If your current brand of fish oil tastes or smells overtly fishy, and/or leaves you with fish burps - chances are it's rancid and doing a sub-par job of supply you with omega-3's.
Best Tasting, Most Tolerated Fish Oil

Reviewer3085488发表于 Jun 18, 2009
Carlson's Very Finest Lemon flavored Fish oil is fantastic. It's mild lemon flavor and light base fish oil has a wonderful taste with no fishy after effects! No fishy smell and very high in EPA (800) and DHA (500). This powerful, and yet very pure, contaminant free fish oil can't be beat. After just a few weeks of taking it; my inflamed knees feel great. After trying many others; I'm sold on this product. I also found that adding fresh herbs like thyme, basil, parsley and sweet onion chopped up fine with just a touch of lime juice makes a super salad dressing. iHerb does a great job on packing & wrapping it. They enclose it in bubble wrap; and ship the same day you order.

6 Chic Looks That Borrow from the Boys
- 1 of 25
Menswear-inspired looks continue to be a huge focus in fashion, particularly for fall. Happily, style stars like Kate Moss and Sienna Miller are giving them street cred by coming up with cool outfit ideas galore. Are you (wo)man enough to try one for yourself? Read on to find out.

Tip: Make your own tie with a silk scarf
Out and about in London, Kate Moss sported a silk neck tie with her Isabel Marant Tacy Suede Printed Calf Hair Leather Boots ($1500), leopard print trousers, and velvet blazer. The DIY accessory is a welcome alternative to a scarf and gives off a cool, slightly undone, Keith Richards vibe.

Tip: Swap your cocktail dress for a simple black suit
The only thing better than a sharply dressed man is a sharply dressed 16-year-old girl. Hailee Steinfeld cut a striking figure at Olivia Holt's Sweet 16 birthday party in a tailored 3.1 Phillip Lim tuxedo jacket and trousers (both from the brand's Holiday 13 collection), paired with a crisp white button-down and strappy Stuart Weitzman heels.

To ensure this look comes off less Mad Hatter, more louche '60s rock star, follow Sienna Miller's lead (seen here at the Another Magazine part in London last month) and pair your top hat with a tough chic accessory like over-the-knee boots.

Today about 700 harmonised European standards provide presumption of conformity for low voltage Published on: 16/08/2012
A new consolidated list of references of harmonised standards under the low voltage directive 2006/95/EC was published in the Official Journal of the European Union OJ C 245 of 14 August 2012.
This list includes new standards of which the references are cited for the first time in the Official Journal and amendments or corrigenda to standards of which the references were cited earlier in the OJ. For informative purposes the changes are indicated with the term '(new)' in the summary table in Web format.
These European standards provide solutions for compliance and presumption of conformity with relevant essential requirements of the low voltage directive. Although the references of these standards are published in the Official Journal of the European Union their publication is not required to provide for a presumption of conformity for low voltage products.
The use of harmonised standards is optional. Manufacturers can choose whether or not to follow a harmonised standard to manufacture their products. Manufacturers may thus go for any other technical solution but they must demonstrate that their products are in conformity with the mandatory safety requirements.

Local 6 viewers question safety of 'Youth Pill'
Florida distributor says clinical testing of Product B underway
Product B, the supplement that promises to deliver "Telomere support" and in theory extend cell life, has sparked plenty of debate since Local 6 first aired the story about the natural supplement Monday night.

Product B is the star attraction of Isagenix, an Arizona based multi-marketing company, that offers several health and diet products.
The latest version of the supplement was introduced in August ,at an Isagenix convention held in Las Vegas.
Dr. William Anderson, a Ph.D. in genetics proclaimed the 3rd generation of Product B to be "better" than the previous version.
Anderson ,who was featured in Popular Science as "The Man who would Stop Time," is developing a combination of vitamins and plant extracts he hopes will activate telomerase, the enzyme that prolongs the life of telomeres.
Anderson told "Popular Science Magazine" his mission is to extend human life to 120 years "or die trying."
So far, researchers say reports of the effects of Product B have been promising.
Dr. Robert Watine, a board certified specialist in internal medicine in Port Charlotte, says he has documented medical data from 400 patients all presenting with" improved health" after talking Product B.
Phil Zulli, a Florida distributor of the Isagenix line confirmed two "prestigious" clinical studies are underway to investigate the efficacy of Product B.
"When completed next year, we expect them(clinical studies) to fully validate the action of Product B™ in the human body," he said.

POTSDAM A halfway house for homeless women recovering from drug addiction failed to receive grant funding from the state Homeless Housing Assistance Program, postponing the project and forcing its organizers to seek other options.
Carolyn M. White, former director of the chemical dependency unit at Canton-Potsdam Hospital and chairwoman of New Hope Transformation Ministries, got the news of the states decision on her birthday.
When I got the email I was heartbroken, she said.
The plan called for a home at 88 Market St., a property that has been vacant for more than 20 years. It would house up to 12 women at a time. Residents, all of whom would have recently completed a rehab program, would learn job skills while living at the house for six to 12 months.
The idea was created by New Hope Transformation Ministries, a Christian nonprofit agency founded by members of New Hope Community Church.
Now the plan is on hold, as board members consider their next steps.
It would take nearly $1.3 million to buy the land, build the house, and get the program off the ground.
The group has received permission from the village to build on the vacant lot, and property owner James E. Sheehan has promised to sell it to the group as soon as it has the funds.
Workers at the state Homeless Housing Assistance Program have offered to help the group rewrite its grant application, although they did not specify why the group was passed over in the first place.
This extra assistance could push it over the top, helping the proposed program stand out in a competitive process, according to Ms. White, who said she has had little experience writing grants before now.
New Hope Transformation Ministries will re-apply for the Homeless Housing Assistance Program as soon as it can improve the application. In the meantime, the group is seeking other sources of state grant funding.
You just kind of sigh and say, Well, weve got to pick up these pieces and see where were going, Ms. White said.
The lack of funding has left the project in limbo, as the group cannot move forward without the money to build.
The plan was criticized by some residents when it was presented to the village Planning Board last year. Neighbors worried that crime would increase if recovering drug addicts lived downtown.
Despite the obstacles, Ms. White said the house will still become a reality as quickly as possible.
Were not giving up by any stretch of the imagination, she said.

IMC CLUB, EAA Sign Letter of Intent Regarding Acquisition of IMC Program
OSHKOSH, Wisconsin — (July 20, 2015) — The IMC Club and the Experimental Aircraft Association have signed a letter of intent regarding EAA's possible acquisition of the IMC program. This letter, signed at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2015, is a preliminary step toward further discussion with no legal commitments yet made.
"Our discussions with the IMC Club began as all of us looked for a way to give long-term stability for the IMC concept, which enhances safety for aviators with instrument ratings and others involved in flight," said Rick Larsen EAA's vice president of communities and member programs. "EAA has always been about the sharing of knowledge and information among its members, and the IMC Club concept is another way to bring that to EAA members and other aviators by possibly leveraging the EAA chapter network."
Continuing the IMC program in connection with EAA might include such components as providing EAA chapters with the ability to incorporate IMC programming; monthly scenarios within IMC programming that would facilitate discussion and learning; and shared resources within EAA membership and chapter affiliation that would increase the reach and impact of IMC programming.
"Ultimately, we all share the same goal: making better and safer pilots throughout the flying community," Larsen said.
"As a president of the IMC Club, it is my responsibility to work and develop strategies for the benefit and the best interest of our members. Our members and chapters could gain access to a significant additional benefits, resources and communication channels to promote our mission of aviation safety to much wider audience. I am very excited about this potential" - said Radek Wyrzykowski the President of the IMC Club.
As this Letter of Intent is only a preliminary document with no legal commitments, further information will be released when and if any formal agreement or transaction is completed.
EAA embodies the spirit of aviation through the world's most engaged community of aviation enthusiasts. EAA's 190,000 members and 1,000 local chapters enjoy the fun and camaraderie of sharing their passion for flying
Joining Forces to Expand the Pilot Proficiency Center During AirVenture Oshkosh 2015
Oshkosh, Wisconsin - Flight instructors and aviation companies are joining forces during EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2015 to bring back the EAA Pilot Proficiency Center and build on last year's success in improving pilot skills and enhancing safety with participants at the "World's Greatest Aviation Celebration."
Last year the IMC Club and EAA partnered to create a new skill-building center at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2014. The IFR Proficiency Center which was a hub for instrument pilots. The EAA Pilot Proficiency Center will continue to partner with the IMC Club, which is dedicated to improving the skills of instrument-rated pilots. During EAA AirVenture 2015 (July 20-26) the center will feature "Tech Talks," IFR and VFR flight scenarios in Redbird flight simulators, the opportunity to talk with certificated flight instructors and more. The Pilot Proficiency Center will be open to all pilots instrument and non-instrument rated, and flight students who want to improve their flying skills and will feature IFR and basic airmanship challenges and forum programs. Topics will include glass cockpit secrets; weather planning; instrument chart tips and tricks and will also cover stick and rudder skills. In addition, each day at 11:00 AM the IMC Club will conduct a model chapter meeting, open to all, to demonstrate the "organized hangar flying".
"While we're all here in Oshkosh enjoying everything flight has to offer, the EAA Pilot Proficiency Center is a superb opportunity to sharpen those year-round flying skills in a fun, non-intimidating way," said Joe Brown, president of Hartzell Propeller; member of EAA's board of directors and the IMC Club Board of Directors who is among the leadership group for the EAA Pilot Proficiency Center. "Our goal is that pilots will see the value of using simulator-based scenarios to hone basic piloting skills and will add this kind of recurrent training to their annual regime, just like the pros do. I encourage all aviators to take some time in one of our 14 simulators and join us for a great lineup of Tech Talks."
"This is a unique attraction and a great way to help pilots feel more comfortable and capable. IMC Club is happy and excited to be a part of this greatly expanded project and build on last year's positive response from many pilots" - said Radek Wyrzykowski, founder and president of the IMC Club.
Along with EAA and the IMC Club, the EAA Pilot Proficiency Center is supported by Jeppesen, Hartzell, PilotEdge, Mindstar Aviation, FLYING Magazine and Redbird Flight Simulations. Members of the National Association of Flight Instructors (NAFI) and the Society of Aviation and Flight Educators (SAFE) will also assist at the facility, which will be located just east of the FAA control tower on the AirVenture grounds.
IMC Club Opens a Manhattan Chapter
New York, NY - You have probably read or heard about pilots coming to their local airports to participate in so called organized "hangar flying" by the IMC Club. Now the newest chapter comes to you. Located in the heart of Manhattan, New Your City at 99 Madison Ave, IMC Club Manhattan Chapter is hosted by the Manhattan Flight Club and is intended to serve pilots who's work and the New York City traffic prevents them from trying to get to their local airport on a regular basis and stay proficient and current.
Staying proficient as a pilot in New York City presents a number of unique challenges...from long commutes to the airport to a limited flying season and the unpredictable northeast weather. The Manhattan Flight Club (www.manhattanflightclub.com) was launched to create a home for aviation right here in the center of Manhattan. Their focus is on building the aviation community, facilitating educational opportunities, and providing access to FAA approved training devices in their SIM Lab.
"I've been lucky to have been around aviation since I was a kid, and was able to get my Private and Instrument by age 18. Flying provided a solid foundation and exposed me to a sense of responsibility and adventure that still drives me to this day. " - said Taylor Jobe, the Manhattan Flying Club president, founder and the IMC Club Manhattan Chapter Leader.
"I want to say thank you to Taylor for volunteering his energy and resources and I can't express enough how excited I am. It probably takes longer to drive a few blocks in New York City than to fly to maintain your proficiency once you are at the airport. Bringing Simulator resources and a discussion forum to the pilots is a genuinely great idea." – said Radek Wyrzykowski, IMC Club President
IMC Club, through its worldwide chapters, provides organized "hangar flying" focused on building proficiency in instrument flying. It's the only organization of its kind. The IMC Clubs concept is to bring together IFR-rated pilots who fly in the real-world "actual IMC" and provide them an opportunity to share stories, network with the larger pilot community, and gain valuable insights and tips for their IFR flying. All stories and scenarios produced by the club for use during chapter meetings are real and based on submission by their members. IMC Club Meetings provide a forum for promoting participation and discussion of IFR flying.
The first meeting of the IMC Club Manhattan group will be held in May of this year at Manhattan Flying Club (www.manhattanflightclub.com), the host of the IMC Club Chapter there. The IMC Club meeting is open to all current, non-current, and future instrument pilots. At the meeting, prospective members will be given the opportunity to interact with IMC Club founder and President Radek Wyrzykowski.
Since its inception in 2011 supported by the aviation industry members like Hartzel Propeller and Jeppesen a Boeing Company, IMC Club International grew from 4 pilots in Norwood, MA to over 2700 registered members and over 125 Chapters globally.
Larry Levin of Providence, RI This Years Winner of the IMC Club "Brown Jacket Award"
Lakeland, FL - This years winner of the IMC Club "Brown Jacket Award" was announced today. This year's award goes to Larry Levin, instrument pilot from Providence, RI
The IMC Club International awards the Brown Jacket to one general aviation pilot each year. The award recognizes excellence in three areas: Flight proficiency, Continuing Education and Service to the aviation Community. The designation identifies and publicly recognizes those pilots who are demonstrating an ongoing commitment to excellence, professional growth, and service to the aviation community and it sets standards to which all instrument pilots can aspire.
The designation requires a process of continuing aviation activity and it is awarded annually to one individual only. In addition to the "Instrument Master" leather flight jacket, the winner will receive valuable prizes provided by the IMC Club supporting aviation industry corporate members.
The award is announced each year during the Sun-n-Fun aviation show in Lakeland, Florida starting in 2014 and presented at the AirVenture in Oshkosh, WI.
Larry began flying in 1981. He received his commercial rating in 1989, and an ATP rating in 1992. Last year he received his commercial glider rating. He is flying a 1998 Socata Trinidad which, he said - "is a great aircraft due to its nice combination of relative speed, useful load and beauty." Larry makes 4-6 trips to the Bahamas each year and the Trinidad makes it a very comfortable flight.
"I am a very strong believer in maintaining flight proficiency and doing as many instrument approaches each month as possible." - said Larry Levin - "During flights with my instructor, I especially enjoy having to deal with most any non-standard or emergency situation that can be incorporated into the instruction in order to always keep me prepared. I congratulate the IMC Club for the great work they do in promoting instrument flying, proficiency and safety. I very much look forward to the monthly IMC local chapter meetings." - he added
Larry, was born in Providence, RI and presently lives in Lincoln, RI with his wife Lisa and son Alex. He is practicing Dentistry full time in Providence, RI but when not at work or flying, he enjoys playing tennis and following his Providence College Friars.
"I want to congratulate Mr. Levin on being the recipient of this prestigious aviation award. I would like to also thank him for his contribution to the General Aviation safety by his commitment to his personal flying excellence" – said Radek Wyrzykowski the President of the IMC Club.
Article published in the "Absolute Altitude" a SFEC's member's newsletter
East Meets MidwestBoston flight instructor visits Spencer Flight & Education Center for new club.
By Shelby Alyssa Mettlen - The Spencer Flight & Education Center is bringing the East to the Midwest, proving there's a whole lot going on in western Kansas - and it doesn't (directly) involve farming or feedlots.
The SFEC hosted IMC Club president and founder Radek Wyrzykowski at its annual (2015) board meeting (…). The decorated pilot and Boston, Mass., resident made the 1,800-mile journey from Norwood, Mass. to Scott City, Kan. to guide the club's newest chapter through its first meeting.
With more than 120 chapters and over 2,400 members worldwide, Wyrzykowski says the IMC Club is the fastest-growing aviation organization of its time - measuring in the same trajectory as the Aircraft Owners and Pilot Association (AOPA) when it was formed. Born as a vision of Wyrzykowski, the IMC Club is a membership-based non-profit 501(c)(3) organization offering resources and training to instrument-rated pilots. The Spencer Flight & Education Center is proud to be the first aviation entity to bring the IMC Club to Kansas.
The Right Tool
Located in the center of cattle feed yards and corn fields, Scott City and the SFEC offer something no other facility in the area can: a Redbird FMX motion simulator.
"With aviation, people travel," Wyrzykowski says. "A lot of times we think locally, and we should not. If you have something good, people will travel. You just have to get the word out that you have it, and it has to be unique."
The Redbird is a vital tool for instrument training, Wyrzykowski says.
"We have to position ourselves in space and then use those needles to know what is happening," he says. "Needles are just to fine tune, to know exactly that certain position. It's all in your brain. [The Redbird] is the perfect machine to practice in."
Humble Beginnings
A native of Poland, Wyrzykowski has served as Chief Flight Instructor for four different flight schools and has logged over 6,000 hours in the cockpit. He is a Master Certified Flight Instructor Instrument and Multiple-Engine Instructor.
Earlier in his aviation career, Wyrzykowski sat down with three friends near his home in Norwood and discussed a particularly rough instrument situation he'd run into. The four men decided to form a "support group" for instrument-rated pilots to share their experience and knowledge - and the IMC Club was born.
A press release outlining the idea of the IMC Club was picked up by the AOPA and the organization became an overnight success.
"Next morning, I come to work and I'm not kidding, I was getting an email every minute," Wyrzykowski says. "My inbox was flooded with people asking how to sign up for the organization and open new chapters. I had absolutely no idea, because I wasn't expecting that."
From four men with a vision to more than 2,400 members, IMC Club continues to evolve and grow. At the 2011 EAA (Experimental Aircraft Association) AirVenture fly-in in Oshkosh, Wis., Wyrzykowski and his team did little more than wear their "IMC Club" t-shirts, he says. Last year, the club had its own pavillion with eight Redbird FMX flight simulators, complete with PilotEdge software, running full time. This year, Wyrzykowski says, it'll be even bigger.
Keeping It Interesting
"What IMC Club does is address this forgotten group of pilots," Wyrzykowski says. "We want to address the biggest mistake flight schools make. With most flight schools, we go after private pilots, they get their licenses, we get them instrument training, then we try to convince them that they should go commercial, CFI (Certified Flight Instructor) and become airline pilots."
The trouble is, many pilots lack interest in becoming commercial pilots, he says. Too often, if pilots don't want to go commercial, they drift away and fail to remain current on their training.
"With IMC Club, we want to bring them back," Wyrzykowski says. "We want to bring this group back and show them that it could be a lot of fun to use that instrument training."
It doesn't matter how many hours a pilot acquires, he says - it's about how current he remains; how much practice he has and how recently that practice has taken place.
"I always compare it to going to a gym," Wyrzykowski says. "Let's say you stop walking altogether. After a few months, you have to learn how to walk again. If you stop flying instruments, it doesn't matter if you have your instrument rating, you have to go back. It's extremely important to do this systematically. A lot of instrument flying is not really moderate skill; it's in your brain. It's a mental exercise."
Sharing Experience
IMC Club meetings are all about the exchange of practical knowledge, Wyrzykowski says.
"When you have an experience and you tell your friend, "You won't believe what happened to me," two people will learn," he says. "We took it to a global level. We're putting all those brains together."
Becoming a member of the IMC Club offers many benefits, including discounts on U.S. military-grade Randolph sunglasses, access to MyGoFlight apps and software, IFR Refresher and IFR Magazine. However, Wyrzykowski says he wants the IMC Club to avoid becoming a subscription service.
"All those benefits are extra, but that is not what we are," he says. "We're about real, human face-to-face contact."
Leave your Smartphone at home, Wyrzykowski says. The IMC Club is all about sharing experience, good and bad.
"You don't need [your phone]," he says. "What we want you to do is come over here to your local chapter and participate in those chapter meetings. Because good judgment comes from experience and experience comes from poor judgement."

Mastering Crosswinds Seminars Taking To The Road
Englewood, Colorado, April 8, 2015 — Crosswind Concepts, Ltd. (CC), a unique aviation training center based in Centennial Airport in Englewood, Colorado, is taking its popular "Mastering Crosswinds" safety seminar on the road.
With four scheduled seminar dates slated in late April at the Sun 'n Fun International Fly-In and Expo in Lakeland, Florida, Taylor Albrecht, CC manager, crosswind instructor and the IMC Club Denver South chapter leader conceived CC's first road tour to offer crosswind training seminars to pilots along CC's route of travel to the Sunshine State.
Albrecht viewed the road tour as a unique opportunity to highlight the FAA/NTSB's focus on reducing loss-of-control accidents, so he set about scheduling training sessions with two eager partners: Plane Available in Kansas City, Missouri, and Nashville Flight Training in Nashville, Tennessee.
The Kansas City seminar is slated for 6:30 pm, Tuesday, April 14, at the Wheeler Downtown Airport, followed by the Nashville seminar at 7 pm, Thursday, April 16, 2015 at the Nashville International Airport. While registration is still open, Albrecht said response to the seminar opportunities has already been strong with some 50 signed up in Kansas City and about 30 in Nashville.
Brad Whitsitt, president of Xwind, LLC, based in Indianapolis, Indiana, will also participate in the road show sessions. Whitsitt invented the state-of-the-art Xwind stick-and-rudder skills training simulator that helps pilots develop superior crosswind skills in a safe, environmentally controlled setting. "I'm excited to join CC's road tour and am pleased to be part of their comprehensive program to help pilots gain critical skills necessary for successful crosswind operations," he said.
The "Mastering Crosswinds" seminar is just one way that CC helps pilots master what Richard Collins, noted aviation journalist, famously dubbed "the hardest thing to do in aviation," according to Albrecht.
"Knowledge helps overcome fear," Albrecht added, "so a review of weather and aerodynamics is foundational to our programs and we train toward successful crosswind operations, particularly during the landing phase of flight. This is why we combine our training in the incomparable Xwind simulator with seminars and comprehensive ground classes to round out a pilot's knowledge base."
Crosswind Concepts, Ltd. (CC) is a rare aviation training facility focused on extraordinary stick-and-rudder pilot training designed to reduce loss of control in the cockpit, a factor the FAA has declared one of the leading causes of aviation accidents. Because crosswind landings were documented factors in 98 percent of all landing accidents in a single year, a key component of CC's regimen is the highly effective Redbird Xwind flight simulator that utilizes powerful motors to produce life-like roll, yaw and drift motion in a realistic runway environment, allowing pilots to develop the skills to prevail during such landings. An Xwind student gains more crosswind landing experience in a one-hour session than a typical private pilot accrues flying over a two-year period. Information on Crosswind Concepts and how to o sign up for CC's road tour seminars in Kansas City and Nashville, is available online at www.crosswindconceptsltd.com or by calling 720.536.0543.
First IMC Club Chapter in Australia to open in April
A $200 IFR Bootcamp discount for IMC Club Members
Norwood, MA - As a new benefit available exclusevly to IMC Club members
you may now receive a $200 discount off of IFR Bootcamp by Pilot Workshops.
IFR Bootcamp will expose you to the many aspects of flying
in the system and give you practice in "putting it all together".
This is an area in which many pilots are lacking because
their instructor trained them to pass the Instrument checkride but didn't
prepare them to actually fly in the IFR system. For others, their IFR skills
developed rust from a long layoff and they want to get back in the saddle.
At IFR Bootcamp, you can work solo with a CFII, or you can
work with a buddy (and split the cost) under CFII supervision. Many people
prefer to go through the experience with another pilot. But either way, you
will get the full benefit of the program.
The curriculum is organized into a series of scenarios
(missions), each of which challenges you with increasingly complex end-to-end
IFR flights. You'll be thoroughly briefed on each mission, and equipped with
the knowledge necessary to complete the flight. Then you head to the sim and
put your knowledge to the test.
Different training locations are available through the

A U.S. District Court of Western Wisconsin today struck down two key parts of Gov. Scott Walker's Act 10, the controversial legislation that revoked the collective bargaining rights of public employees.
Federal Judge William Conley in Madison ruled that the state cannot prevent public employee unions from collecting dues and cannot require they recertify annually. The collective bargaining bill established a system in which most of the public unions were required to have a majority of their members vote every year to recertify. Walker's law also took away some unions' rights to collect mandatory dues. Conley ruled that the state did not have the right to pick and choose which public unions could charge dues and how they would recertify. "So long as the state of Wisconsin continues to afford ordinary certification and dues deductions to mandatory public safety unions with sweeping bargaining rights, there is no rational basis to deny those rights to voluntary general unions with severely restricted bargaining rights," the order read. Conley immediately enjoined the state from the vote requirement and set a deadline of May 12 to return to the automatic deduction of union dues for all members of public employees to give "already burdened" local and state governments time to adjust.

The Little America Hotel in downtown Salt Lake City was abuzz with activity and excitement when your reporter arrived on July 14 for the opening of the U.S. & China Trade, Culture & Education Conference 2011. Throngs of Chinese delegates and journalists packed the lobby, while still more delegates from the People's Republic of China (PRC) disembarked from limousines and tour buses at the hotel entrance. The scene was much the same across the street at the hotel's pricier corporate sister, the Grand America Hotel, which served as the main venue for the National Governors Association Annual Meeting and U.S.-China Governors Forum.
My first order of business was to pick up my press credentials for the Trade, Culture & Education Conference, which was being sponsored by the American & Chinese Friendship Promotion Society. Unfortunately, I arrived at the credential room a few minutes too late; the man in charge had closed up and departed for the afternoon, taking the press badges with him. Mine would be available the next morning, in time for the main events, his assistant assured me. In the meantime, the assistant said, since he had seen my name on the list of officially approved journalists, I could use the press badge of Le Yeng, a Chinese journalist who had not shown up, to get into the afternoon's remaining events.

Believe it or not, sexual assault has its defenders — and they're not just behind bars for rape or pedophilia. Nor do they exclusively "work" for the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), the federal bureaucracy that has decreed its sociopaths may "actually [touch] my vagina four times," as Susie Castillo, former Miss USA and recent victim, put it. "[The assailant] went up both legs from behind and then turned around and did it from the front." (Incredibly, chillingly, the TSA justified this gate-rape just as it did its molestation of six-year-old Anna Drexel and 95-year-old Lena Reppert: "A rep for TSA [says], 'We have reviewed [Ms. Castillo's] screening experience and found that the officer followed proper procedures.'")

* Updated season / career stats are available via the link above, and to see Plum's freshman match-by-match stats, click here.
Confirmed her impressive prep potential with three of the top seasons by a Duck setter in 2010-11-12. As a junior, the first-team All-American and Pac-12 Setter of the Year led the nation in assists (13.37 per set), and directed UO to the nation's top kills per set mark (15.95) and a .289 hitting mark that tied the school record and stood ninth nationally. In 2011, was tabbed an AVCA Honorable Mention All-American and became UO's first setter to claim Honorable Mention All-America, All-Pac-12 and All-Region nods the same season. In 2010, the All-Pac-10 Freshman Team choice led frosh nationally in assists (11.75 p/s) and led the offense to a .256 hitting mark - its fourth-best ever. In spring of 2011 was tabbed to USA Volleyball's Junior National Team and A2 National Squad, and helped the former squad place fourth in the World Junior Championships and tie its best-ever placing. As a prep, she was tabbed to various USA Volleyball High Performance Pool squads, and was tabbed a Junior Olympic Tournament All-American after she helped her team finish fifth in the open division in July 2010. Her arrival was vital in helping the team replace four-year starter Nevena Djordjevic who racked up a school record 4,400 assists from 2006-09.
JUNIOR SEASON (2012) - All-American / Pac-12 Setter of the Year / All-Pac-12 / All-Region
SOPHOMORE SEASON (2011) - All-Pac-12 / All-Region / Honorable Mention All-America.
FRESHMAN SEASON (2010) - All-Pac-10 Freshman Team.
One of three Ducks to start all 30 matches, and played 106 of the team's 109 sets. Her 11.75 assists per set average ranked fifth best all-time for UO (and second in the modern scoring format), and her 1,246 assists overall was seventh-most all-time for UO (and in fewer sets than the six ahead of her). Ranked fourth in the Pac-10 and 12th nationally in assists (11.75), and was one of two frosh with Pepperdine's Kellie Woolever that directed a top-30 ranked offense (UO stood 30th with its .256 mark). Plum registered nine +50-assist totals overall with her six efforts in five sets vs. #6 USC (66), at Arizona State (65), vs. Arizona (56), at Portland State (55), at Seattle (53) and at No. 8 USC (51); and three tallies in four sets against Arizona State (54) and Florida International (53) and at Oregon State (51). Her 48 assists in her collegiate debut vs. Santa Clara was the league season high in three-set matches, and her 66 vs. #6 USC and 64 at ASU was the second- and fourth-best totals overall. In early November at ASU, she logged her first +60-assist match (65), and her 10 digs marked her sixth double-double in league play, while her seven overall was the most among all Pac-10 frosh. In the second half of October, she posted her second three-set double-double (38 assists, 11 digs) vs. No. 3 Cal, while her career-high nine kills the week before was one shy of her first triple-double in a five-set loss at No. 8 USC (after she posted 51 assists and 10 digs). Her season-high 12 digs led to double-doubles in three sets vs. Oregon State (44 assists) and in four sets vs. No. 10 UCLA (41 assists, 10 digs) and vs. FIU and ASU (54 assists). She led UO in blocks five times at PSU (5), vs. Riverside (4) and Stanford (1) and at No. 13 Washington (1) and Washington State (1). Her season high in aces (5) at PSU tied for fifth-best in the Pac-10 in 2010 and was one shy of the fifth-best mark all-time for UO. Altogether, led Ducks in aces in six matches, and also logged two or more in six matches, including three of the last four of the season. She picked up all-tourney nods in the first two preseason tourneys in the Oregon Classic and (12.40 assists/set, 1.20 blocks/set) and Fresno Classic (13.11 assists/s, 2.00 digs/s and 0.67 blocks/s). Season Highs (*Career Highs): Kills: *9 (9K-2E-13A) at #8 USC (5s, 10/22/10); Points: *12 (9K-2SA-1B) at #8 USC (5s, 10/22/10); Assists: *66 vs #6 USC (5s, 11/20/10); Digs: 12, 4s. FIU (9/18/10); Aces: *5, at Portland State (5s, 9/7/10); Blocks: *5 (5BA), 5s at Portland State (9/7/10).
Prep: Racked up a host of Prepvolleyball laurels, including 2009 Senior Ace, 2008 Top 50 Juniors and 2007 Top 79 Sophomores selections. Also was chosen to the 2008 Youth National Training Team, '07 A1 Select Red Team and the USA Volleyball High Performance Pipeline Pool (2006-current). As a senior, the four-year letterwinner, three-year team captain and two-time MVP helped her team to a share of the league title. As a junior, the Palomar League Player of the Year repeated as an all-league and All-CIF San Diego Section pick, and was the school's all-sport MVP. On the club scene, the 2010 Junior Olympics All-American played three seasons for the Coast Volleyball Club, and her squad placed fifth in '09 and '08, and 11th in 2007 in the Junior Olympic tournament. Also played club for the Epic VBC team. She was her club team's captain and MLK All-Tournament Award winner. In other sports, lettered once in track and field as a horizontal and vertical jumper, and once in diving. Off the court, she was tabbed to the 2007 and '08 Union Tribune All-Academic Team and received the '08 Poway High School Scholar-Athlete Award.
Personal: Business Administration major. Her father Jim was a four-year football letterwinner at San Diego State, and her mother Katie was a four-year volleyball letterwinner at UC Davis. Has one older sister Kaitlyn (a senior libero/defensive specialist for UC Davis in fall of '12), and a younger sister Kelsey and younger brother Dan.

Neck pain continues to be a prevalent condition in our society. Manual therapy (hands on techniques for the treatment of neck pain is an intervention commonly implemented in clinical practice. Recently researchers and clinicians have implemented manual therapy techniques to the thoracic spine (midback) to treat patients with neck pain. To date no studies have examined the short-term combined effects of thoracic spine manual therapy and cervical spine manual therapy in the treatment of patients with mechanical neck pain. The purpose this study is to assess the combined effects of thoracic spine thrust manipulation with cervical spine non-thrust manipulation in patients with neck pain.

text: This week has been filled with TV specials, articles and events centered around the 10th anniversary of 9/11. And rightfully so. Having lived through that awful day watching the towers fall from roughly a mile away I have vivid memories of not only that day, but the following weeks and months. I actually try not to think about it too much, but now seems an appropriate time to remember and honor those who were lost and those who carried on in their absence.

How about:

I tested it on redhat7.3/apache 1.3.28 and it work very well
whay this function doesn't work on redhat 9 with default apache 2?
what module must be enabled for apache 2 to have log in a mysql database?

|[Delete] [Edit]
Although it may work like a charm, what happens if you unleash this on a server that receives a lot of traffic? I'd say having Apache open up a MySQL connection on *every* hit is going to do you much good in terms of server load.
A better route may be using a script to write data to your database and have Apache pipe the log through that. But this will still mean a bigger load on the server, so post-processing the logs (i.e., after they've been rotated) is a much better idea.

Be aware that the example above does not escape mysql control characters. Referrers can be and frequently are forged, and so could readily contain the ' character which would break the INSERT statement in Adrian's example. If the referrer also contained something like "')VALUES((..,..,)_;DELETE FROM tablename;" (or similar) you'd be the victim of SQL injection. Hard-coding SQL into a log file would also make the logfile huge and given it's repeating the same thing over and over, is not recommended. Far better to store the raw fields and process via an external script.

Reply on Marcus Taylor: indeed, the ' will break down the query and even the MySQL logging will die. But swapping the ' and the " in the query, the query will just continue without any SQL injection risk. The " itself in an URL will be encoded to %22 while the ' will not be encoded whatsoever.
I'm using this logformat for weeks successfully since I found out that an ' in the URL killed the MySQL logging:
LogFormat 'INSERT INTO balusc VALUES ("%{%Y-%m-%d %X}t","%a","%u","%s","%X","%m","%U","%B","%T","%{User-Agent}i","%{Referer}i");' mysql

In Reply To Bauke Scholtz, I'd like to add the following:
"For security reasons, starting with Apache 2.0.46, non-printable and other special characters are escaped mostly by using \xhh sequences, where hh stands for the hexadecimal representation of the raw byte. Exceptions from this rule are " and \ which are escaped by prepending a backslash, and all whitespace characters which are written in their C-style notation (\n, \t etc)."
So exchanging the quotes is the way to go. Also, I'd like to suggest the use of INSERT DELAYED:
Personally I use:

Bauke's suggestion for using " instead of ' worked for me too, until I got the following log entry:
126.96.36.199 - - [28/Oct/2005:06:51:09 -0400] "GET /become-a-teacher/About_Page1.htm HTTP/1.1" 200 14171 "http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p="Grand%20Central%20%20Discovery"" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; YPC 3.0.1;SV1; yplus 4.1.00b)"

Charlie Palmer's renowned New York Aureole enjoys a reputation as one of the finest restaurants in the United States. Palmer opened Aureole at Mandalay Bay in 1999, featuring seasonal dishes that include artisan dry-aged beef and fresh seafood.
Designed by pre-eminent restaurant designer Adam Tihany, Aureole's visual trademark is a four-story wine tower with its very own Wine Angel Stewards, who gracefully ascend the tower to retrieve bottles. Guests can search the 3,200 bottle touch-screen wine list, which includes a 1961 bottle of Chateau Petrus valued at $4,500.
Wine Spectator's Grand Award every year since 1999
Four Diamond Award each year since 1999
2008 and 2009 Michelin Star
2009 Mobil Travel Guide Four Star Recipient
One of the most highly regarded chefs in America today, Charlie Palmer has received critical acclaim for his signature "Progressive American" cuisine, reinterpreting classic European cooking using American artisanal products and small-farm producers. Born and raised in upstate New York and classically trained at the Culinary Institute of America, Charlie first burst onto the New York dining scene in the mid-1980s as executive chef at The River Café. At the young age of 28, Charlie opened Aureole New York as chef and proprietor. Charlie Palmer is the author of several cookbooks and a frequent guest on NBC's Today Show.
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful restaurant! My friend and I ate small plates here instead of entrees so we could try a variety of food. Every single thing was delicious! We ordered lobster stuffed mushrooms, apricot-glazed chicken lollipops, and truffle croquettes. No regrets! We went here a month ago, and my friend and I still talk about Aureole like we were just there yesterday. Very highly recommended!
-Charlie S.
Came here and had the "Parallel" tasting menu before seeing Lion King. The food was superb and worth every penny. The waiter was amazing and we had a booth with a view of the swans and the waterfall. I will definitely come back here. The staff was very friendly. I can't wait to try other items on the menu.
-Sunny S.
If you are looking for a special place to celebrate - this would be the place. We ate in the Swan Court and did the Parallel Tasting. The service and quality of food matches the price! :) It was truly a 5-star dining experience. Four courses with nice tastings of comparing contrasting delights! The entire experience felt elegant!!! So glad I was able to experience this with my friends and my husband. Bon Appetit!
