Understand why Practice Fusion is winning over all types of medical professionals. Learn from our users why using a free, web-based EHR has changed the way they practice medicine.
"I am really enjoying the Practice Fusion e-RX. I decided to individually enter patient info rather than ask you to help import because a lot of my info is outdated (it is a long standing practice) I really appreciate that I can e-Rx without a huge investment because solo practice in medicine is not profitable anymore, but I think my patients are getting good and personalized care. I work about 28 days a month and maybe take off one week a year, so your company is helping me survive."
-Susan Zeveloff, MD
"Sat down in my living room to finish my charting. I love Practice Fusion!"
-Jessie Peters, FNP-BC
"I love everything about Practice Fusion, it is free, easy and my staff loves it. There are no headaches and we fall in love with it every time we log on."
-Purnima Sreenivason MD, MPH, Health Aim Inc.
"With experience in adopting and implementing two of the 'big' EMRs, I will tell you that Practice Fusion is far more intuitive, making it very pleasant to use. People considering commercial vendors of EHRs need to know the ongoing elaborate costs of support."
-Dave CourtManche PA-C, Carolina Complete Medical
"I'm a part-time PCP and a full-time mom. Just put my kids to bed and then sat down in my living room to finish my charting. I love Practice Fusion!"
-Jessie Peters, FNP-BC
"It's easy to use. I can write templates in my own words not in the words of others. And it's free!"
-Jackson M. Lim DPM
"I just started using Practice Fusion for my testing private practice this week and it has been great."
-Claudia B. Rutherford MD, Claudia Rutherford Practice
"So complete, so simple AND so FREE"
-Carolyn Spiro MD
"I love your user interface. It's probably the best I've seen!"
-Beth Thompson MD, Oak Tree Osteopathy
"I was looking at the comparison of the various EMRs and was just disgusted with the cost. You guys show a true respect for the physicians and the mess we are in. Everyone has their hands in our pockets and it's time they get out. I will certainly spread the word."
-Victoria Allen MD, Victoria Allen Practice, MO
"You guys are doing a hell of a job and I'm really enjoying using PF. My nurse worked for another EMR company for 11 years until I hired her. It was a tough call to not go with an EMR that she helped build and knew inside and out, but then articles like how Ryan Howard is a top disruptive force in health IT, reassured me that I made the right decision."
-Josh Umbehr MD, AtlasMD, Concierge Family Practice
"I can review my charts while watching the Giants games!"
-James Hansen MD, James Hansen Practice
"So today, I went to the hospital and discharged my patient. I used Practice Fusion to produce the Discharge Summary. I signed and printed it right at the nurse's station and it was on the chart completed before I left. I also printed the Plan and gave it to the patient for the written instructions for aftercare and used ePrescribing to send antibiotics to her pharmacy at the same time. I also have her discharge summary on her chart so I don't have to wait for it to come from the hospital (if it ever arrives!). I LOVE PRACTICE FUSION!"
-Lynn McCallum MD, Family Practitioner and Obstetrician/Gynecologist
"I've used many other EHR's, made up my own and, at one time, cobbled several others together. So when I came upon PF, quite by chance about 6 weeks ago, I couldn't believe what it offered. It was so complete, so simple AND so FREE I kept looking for the catch! But PF seems to be what it says it is… It's been fantastic…. I don't know why anyone would use another system once they find PF. The best part for me is that it's COMPLETELY, not just partly, compatible with the Mac OS…something I've found with few other systems. As a solo practitioner who does everything herself, PF saves me a lot of time."
-Carolyn Spiro MD, Carolyn Spiro Practice
"Just completed one month with PF… starting to get the hang of the system, SOAP Notes, and other features. With e-prescribing, we are definitely seeing the 'blue-dot.' Keep up the great work…including the support. Thank you!"
-Pankaj Goel, Heritage Primary Care, Employee
"You guys combine excellent knowledge with great personal skills."
-Carol Twyman MD
"Practice Fusion really does listen to their users and involves them in the process. Practice Fusion is about the user experience and the ease of use of its EMR. Keep up the great work Practice Fusion!"
-Anand Popuri, Student at New York College of Osteopathic Medicine
"I love Practice Fusion because it's web-based, no need to run servers."
-Jason Chiang MD, UroPlus Center
"This product is too good to be true!! I just got off the phone with an account manager and he was awesome. Thanks Practice Fusion for being innovators in the healthcare industry."
-Joel Kay NP, Family Express Care of Alamo Heights
"We've been using Practice Fusion at West Main Medical Clinic and love it!"
-Paul White MD, West Main Medical Clinic
"Starting to use Practice Fusion for my inpatients, SOAP format works great. Daily progress notes are a breeze with template notes. Saves tons of time, makes it clear billing, I love it."
-Alexandre Andrianov MD, Acadia Internal Medicine
"This software has really revolutionized our practice is so many ways and is one of the big secrets of our success."
-Michael West MD, The Washington Endocrine Clinic, PLLC
"This is really a fabulous system! Amazingly easy to use and amazingly free!"
-Adam Steinlauf MD, Chapman, Present, Marion and Steinlauf, MD, PC
"I love Practice Fusion and sing your praises to other providers I meet (so far two locally have signed up). Keep up the good work!"
-Deonne Benedict NP, Charis Family Clinic
"Ya'll have been great. I was really concerned about taking on EMR. I don't have a lot of spare time to learn software. Please pass on to everyone how much we like Practice Fusion and kudos to the great technical support. You guys combine excellent knowledge with great personal skills. I received a phone call within 10 minutes of sending in a request. I really appreciate the timely and accurate handling of the problem."
-Carol Twyman MD, Age Less Medical Center
"I am very pleased with how the system allows for seamless integration of digital images and x-rays into the notes. The ability to integrate your system with Dragon allows me to work out of the box."
-Loris Yadegarian MD, Loris Yadegarian Practice
"P.F. is the best."
-Nilsa Martinez, Hospital Metropolitano , Puerto Rico, Employee
"Thanks for getting patients uploaded so quickly!"
-Ecoh Dental
"I have just starting using this EMR server based system of yours. In that short period of time I have inquired to your Support Department several times with feature requests. Each request was taken seriously (I appreciate that)and was responded to with an explanation of where, why, or a what is occuring; in a very timely manner. This shows, to me, a very high level of insightful and professional responsiveness. This is exactly what customer service/support is all about. This is very unique to your organization in this industry. You are Champions and I would recommend this EMR to my colleagues who seek such a resource. I am now opening it up to the rest of my rehabilitation practice for OT/ST/PT/Nursing."
-R. Soehl
"It is easy to use for a free clinic to automate workflow, even with many non-routine situations."
-Nancy Jacobsen, Clinic by the Bay
"I have implemented Practice Fusion into my office and ABSOLUTELY love it! The transition was easy and the support team at Practice Fusion have been very responsive to all our needs. I have encountered NO problems and the transition has been so easy compared to my colleagues who months ago invested $25,000 to $50,000 in their EMRs and are still complaining about the process! It has been a joy to find such a service. Thanks so much for making it so simple and easy even for someone like me who is not particularly computer savvy. I have been sooo happy that I am recommending it to all my colleagues."
-Hari D. Kannan, MD
"I began using Practice Fusion three months ago and recently signed up for e-Prescribing, the best feature yet. I love it!"
-Denise Smith MD, Hart 2 Heart Medical
"I think you have a great program and great staff and I'm amazed at your business model."
-George S. Sidhom, MD
"Congrats. You guys are truly an example of progress and forward thinking for the second decade of the 21st century and web 2.0 in medicine. Keep up the great work!"
-Dr. Muslah
"Congrats. You guys are truly an example of progress and forward thinking for the second decade of the 21st century and web 2.0 in medicine. Keep up the great work!"
-Dr. Muslah
"I am extremely satisfied with e-prescribing. Excellent work."
-Desiderio Pina, MD
"We just started e-prescribing and we are loving it!! We love the system and love it even more now that e-prescribing eliminates a lot of phone calls."
-Jose Hernandez, Office Manager
"I love the e-script function. You have an excellent product. Thank you."
-Keith Sadel
"You guys fixed the printing issue with Mac OS- you're the best!! Thank you."
-Gregg Wolff
"Dr. McCallum and I are so happy with the progress our practice has made since moving forward with implementing EMR. Practice Fusion was easy to learn, easy to modify to our own specifications and the new features that are continuously being added just make it better and better. Adding E-Prescribing has now saved several steps that translates into more available time. We recently started a new clinic, just adjacent to our existing practice, which opened up Nov. 4, 2009 completely PAPERLESS! This has added 12-15 additional patient visits (about 5 minutes), on top on my existing 12-14 patient visits (about 20-30 minutes) however; it does not appear that I am spending any additional time at work! Obviously, Practice Fusion has made my time and patient care far more efficient!"
-Kelie Mercier, NP at E. Lynn McCallum, MD
"The ePrescribing feature of Practice Fusion is as intuitive and robust as the rest of this excellent web-based program. A medical office can truly start using Practice Fusion in five minutes, and I would add that it only takes one minute to begin ePrescribing once this is activated."
-Byron Van Dyke, MD, Dermatologist
"I'd like to tell you that we've been very happy with the functionality and usability of Practice Fusion. We adopted it after our staff meeting in October. It is streamlined and fast. Information is easy to enter and easy to find. There is a nice logic to the format and the online tutorials and guides are generally helpful…Just about everything that I looked at was out of my reach financially and furthermore, more clunky in terms of its operation. I work with another EMR at one of the MD practices we're affiliated with and Practice Fusion kicks it out the window in terms of ease of use. It also looks nice, which seems odd to say, except that when you're spending hours a day at a computer screen looking at the darn thing, you need something easy on the eyes."
-Byron Van Dyke, MD, Dermatologist
"Just wanted to let you know that while it is a big transition for us to go to a EHR for our practice, you guys have been great about responding to our requests and working with us to make this work for us. We love the new updates (especially the prescription updates) and look forward to future improvements."
-Debra Braiman, Practice Manager
"Thank you for creating such a great product!! We are an Internal Medicine Practice with a sub specialty in Infectious Disease. The doctor just began using Practice Fusion and loves all the preloaded templates that come with the system. We looked at many other systems but Practice Fusion is very easy to use and easy to customize."
-Jose Hernandez, Office Manager
"I sincerely hope Obama knows about Practice Fusion and how easy it can be to have an EMR. I spent more time than I would like to admit interviewing the other EMRs. None had the easy start up that yours has. None have the awesome tech support that I get from Roman…. though I have not needed that in some time. Keep up the good work."
-Dr. Allison Blazek
"Practice Fusion is the 3rd EMR I have used, and I have to say, it is much better than Centricity or Allscripts."
-Dr. Eliza Thornton, House Call Group
"Free is awesome. I also love development of the EHR practitioner community."
-Scott Henady, Massage Therapist, For Body and Mind
"The affordability and quality of the Practice Fusion EHR allows a local physician like me to heed President Obama's call to service by keeping overhead lower and allowing me to treat many patients who have fallen on tough financial times."
-Dr. Nikolas Antoniou
"I LOVE the interface design. I think of this as the Bang and Olufsen of EHR interfaces. Clean, uncluttered, elegant and intuitive. The interface should not be a barrier between the physician and the medical record and you are doing a great job here. This is a big selling point for me and I hope you continue to follow the same philosophy as the system evolves."
-Dr. Lefkos Aftonomos
"In spite of the fact that I had never used an EMR in my 38 years of practice, Practice Fusion is very easy to learn. I really don't understand why every physician does not take advantage of Practice Fusion's free product and support."
-Dr. Don Cauthen, Today Clinic
"I love the scheduling, SOAP notes and that [Practice Fusion] is accessible from anywhere."
-Melissa Clay NP, Jeffrey Billett MD
"You guys have some really great ideas. I like the intuitive nature and almost endless customization I can make. You guys rock!"
-Dr. Robert Saunders
"[I love Practice Fusion because] the staff and support are incredible."
-Melinda Silva MD, Melinda Silva Practice
"I am really excited about Practice Fusion. I think you guys have a really exciting, innovative product. Our practice's second physician (out of four) has just started using Practice Fusion, and she thinks it's a great idea that is working for her. We'll be getting our exam rooms wired soon as well as faster computers, which will allow us to better utilize Practice Fusion's potential."
-Dr. Jon C. Sukachevin
"I've been using various EHR's for 15 years, from Cerner to Amazing Charts. Your web-based application can compete with products that I've spent 1,000′s of dollars on. The superiority of web based EHR's can't be underestimated (assuming the necessary security and privacy measures are in place) for small physician groups; besides the ability to easily and safely share pertinent patient data at the point of contact, it eliminates the need to have separate servers, back up systems, installation of application updates, and significantly reduces the need for IT support. As a self professed "early adapter" I would caution physicians exploring ANY EHR system to have patience with the software/applications. All products require a certain time investment and learning curve in the beginning; think about only using it for a couple of patients a day as you and your staff get familiar with the program, and to allow you to develop your personalized templates to fit your style. The initial entering of patient's data and template customization is time intensive, but the real efficiency is seen on return visits when the patient's medical data is all entered and can be accessed simply with clicks of templates. Practice Fusion is where all EHR's should be headed."
-Dr. Gregg Wolff
"It is very easy to incorporate office visits into templates and templates can cover up to 90% of my office visits. You can enter paragraphs of information with several clicks and have a very complete chart at the end. This means that I can spend the extra time with those visits that require more attention."
-Dr. Thomas
"We looked for an EMR that could help us with creating portable records for our patients. Every system we looked at was very expensive, but with Practice Fusion we liked what we saw and the risk was minimal. The system is great for us and is very user friendly. It is really easy to pull up a SOAP note and go."
-Jason Boylan, FNP-C, Robertson Health Services
"Your product is impressive and an asset to my practice."
-Dr. Keith Sadel, Albert Einstein Medical Center
"As a practicing physician I see the dire need for a simple, easy to acquire and implement EMR system, and having used Nextgen in recent past it is a relief to be working with a more responsive and dynamic group."
-Dr. David J. Wyatt, WeightLossMD
"I am really impressed with the strong foundation Practice Fusion has built into its EMR. It does what the more expensive EMRs do at a significantly lower cost, plus because it is internet based, I have more flexibility in where and how I use it – you can do pretty much everything without using your keyboard and mouse."
-Dr. David J. Wyatt, WeightLossMD
"Practice Fusion eliminates the headaches with getting a new EMR — no hardware, no software and no backup systems. With Practice Fusion, the hassles no longer outweigh the advantages of going electronic."
-Dr. Gregory Lorkowski, Lorkowski Eye Center
"[I] appreciate being able to access client information from home and the total migration process took less than two days."
-Dr. James Mille, Same Day Psychiatry
"I enjoy working with this software."
-Tom Joe Elrod, Paul I. Miller MD Offices, Employee
"The templates are awesome!"
-Allison Page NP, Trailtalk

Pataki's Smaller Gov't
February 05, 2002
E. J. McMahon
Much of Gov. Pataki's proposed state budget (his costly expansion of health care, in particular) is a far cry from the leaner, cleaner fiscal plans of his first term. But in at least one crucial respect, New York's revenue shortfall has prompted a welcome return to his budgetary roots: For the first time in seven years, the governor is launching a concerted effort to reduce the size of the state work force.
Pataki plans to cut 5,000 government jobs through attrition and early-retirement incentives by the spring of 2003. Based on the current average salary and fringe-benefit cost for state employees, 5,000 fewer workers would ultimately translate into reduced spending of $275 million a year (not counting the as-yet-unspecified costs of early retirement). It would also trim the executive-branch head count to at least a 20-year low - lower than when Mario Cuomo took office as governor in 1983, according to figures from the State Comptroller's office.
Indeed, though Pataki in recent years has allowed state spending to rise at the fastest pace since the end of Cuomo's first term, he's done a much better job of controlling the state payroll.
During his first two terms, Cuomo boosted the employee head count by 15 percent, to a record level of over 257,000 workers. A severe recession forced him to trim the payroll in 1991 - but by 1994, state government employment was rising again.
In 1995, the newly-elected Pataki faced a state budget gap of nearly $5 billion - at least as large, proportionately, as the one that materialized in the wake of Sept. 11. He cut 20,000 positions during his first year and a half in office. By 1997, he'd pared the state's total head count of full-time equivalent (FTE) employees to just over 222,000.
And payroll spending hasn't exploded since: Over the last four years, the estimated total number of FTE state workers counted by the Office of the Comptroller has risen by about 3.5 percent, but virtually all of that occurred in the state court system (whose caseload has skyrocketed) and at the State University of New York and City University of New York (whose enrollments have grown). Otherwise, throughout this period there was virtually no significant change in the head count for executive branch agencies.
Following Pataki's lead, the state Senate and Assembly also have trimmed their staff totals by about 10 percent - although this still leaves New York with the most expensive and heavily staffed state Legislature in the nation.
The state operations budget is often belittled as a source of potential savings, because employee wages and benefits consume only one-fifth of Albany's total spending. But it's clear that work force reduction under Pataki has paid big dividends for taxpayers. At current average salary and benefit rates, a 1994-level state work force would cost an additional $676 million this year. If state employment had risen back to the peak level of the Cuomo era, those costs would be at least $1.6 billion higher.
Regardless of who's in charge, the toughest challenge for state and local politicians isn't trimming payrolls in a budget crisis - it's stopping them from growing in flush times. Consider the example of Rudolph Giuliani, who inherited a similar fiscal mess when he became mayor in 1994. In his first two years in office, Giuliani also closed a budget gap by reducing head count significantly via attrition and early retirement incentives. But by the time he left office, the number of full-time employees had risen to its highest level at least a decade.
Pataki, by contrast, has kept a pretty tight lid on employment by the agencies he most directly controls. He deserves credit for this accomplishment. Indeed, under the circumstances, he should be encouraged to do much more. Why stop at 5,000?

Combined in this outfit with the highly versatile Canon 28-90mm autofocus zoom lens, the Elan 7 retains many of the advanced features of the extremely popular Elan II, while adding a number of new features starting with the re-design of its exterior.
The camera's compact body incorporates a durable metal top cover and a simplified control layout for easier access to the camera's features and functions.
The Elan 7 also includes a built-in, retractable flash unit with wide-angle covering power up to 28mm. The flash exposure control uses 3-zone TTL metering linked to all 7 focusing points. In the Full Auto and Programmed Image Control modes, the built-in flash pops up and fires automatically in low-light or back-lit situations. In the Creative Zone modes, flash can be used at the user's discretion.
At 4 frames per second, the EOS Elan 7 offers the fastest continuous shooting speed in its class. When set for the AI Servo mode for tracking moving subjects, maximum speed is 3.5 fps. In addition, the camera utilizes an improved version of Canon's exclusive Whisper Drive transport system, making it the quietest EOS System camera available.
Using a proprietary CMOS sensor chip, Canon was able to design the new camera with 7 focusing points which are clearly visible in the viewfinder, giving the photographer greater focusing flexibility. All focusing points are linked providing sharp focus and precise exposure instantly, regardless of subject position. Line-of-sight detection response has been cut in half compared to the Elan II. Manual focusing point selection has been made faster and easier with the addition of arrow keys located inside the camera's Quick Control dial. By depressing the toggle-like buttons, users can quickly focus around the frame without ever removing their eye from the viewfinder.
Using the Command Dial on the camera, users have immediate access to 11 different shooting modes including Night Scene, Action, Close-up, Landscape, Portrait, Program, Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority, Manual and Depth-of-Field AE. Additionally, the camera's 13 Custom Functions can quickly be accessed through the Command Dial. Within the 13 Custom Functions, 34 different camera settings are possible.
As with all EOS System cameras, the Elan 7 series is compatible with all 56 EF-series lenses as well as the latest Speedlite 420EX and Battery Pack BP-300.
Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
Comments about Canon EOS Elan 7 SLR Camera - w/ Canon 28-90 Auto Focus Lens:
Canon film cameras are wonderful. This camera is great for anyone who is thinking about getting a digital but as you know digital cameras are always getting outdated as new digitals are being made, but one camera remains, the film camera. This camera is great, as all canon film cameras are, for black and white as well as color. This camera takes great actions and sport pictures. I was new to the whole "slr camera" crowd but quickly leanred because of the ease of use which the camera was designed with. The camera also has some great features for those who have a little more experience with cameras, like changing the number of exposures, changing the shutter speed, and many more. Even if you already own a digital slr i would recommend buying this camera because there is just something better about the pictures from a film camera compared to a digital. One thing that is better is you dont have to worry about losing the picture, or the picturing looking "digitalized" (you know what i mean by that, we all experienced it atleast once with a digital).

Comments about Canon EOS Elan 7 SLR Camera - w/ Canon 28-90 Auto Focus Lens:
I have had this Canon camera since June of 2006 and it is a wonderful camera. As with all Canon film cameras (I own several) it will not let you down. Fast, quite, and does what you want it to do, when you want it to. Easy to operate. Lots of features for the price. It won't let you down.

TULSA — A lot of coaches will tell you they have a defensive player who is good enough to play anywhere on the field, but few of them actually pull it off.
All-state football: Tulsa Washington's Dominique Alexander has versatility to play everywhere
Tulsa Washington star Dominique Alexander played "basically every position except nose guard," coach Marvin Dantzler said of the Oklahoma Sooner commit.
Alexander started all last season at safety, then the 6-foot-2, 195-pounder moved to defensive end at the start of this year.
But as the team's needs changed, so did his position. He returned to the secondary at times, and he'd still play defensive end when the Hornets went to a five-man front.
Ultimately, he settled in at linebacker, where the defense was able to utilize all of his skills, whether it be rushing the passer, stopping the run or covering receivers.
He finished with 121 tackles, four sacks, four forced fumbles and an interception to earn a linebacker spot on The Oklahoman's 100th All-State team.
"Dominique is one of those rare athletes you find who has the size and strength to play in the front seven, and the speed to play on the back end," Dantzler said. "He has the range to play wherever we needed him to play."
That versatility is one of the factors that made Alexander so attractive to major programs. He initially committed to Arkansas as a safety, but stepped back to look at his options as the program's stability came into question with coaching issues.

Gulf Air, the national carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain, yesterday awarded a lucky audience member at Ballare School of Performing Arts' show "Worlds Apart: The Beginning of a Journey" with two complimentary tickets to fly anywhere within the Gulf Air network, in a show of support for the local initiative.
Ms. Hala Al Zayani, Ballare School of Performing Arts Founder and Director, commented: "Having the support of Bahrain's national carrier is a true vote of confidence for us. Since September 2011, Ballare has been continuously working towards offering Bahrain the best in performing arts. Gulf Air's support on this occasion is a testament to our ongoing efforts to add to Bahrain's arts scene."
Gulf Air, through its three tiered corporate social responsibility (CSR) plan, is committed to supporting a number of local and regional charity initiatives across its network and several refuge initiatives in the Philippines, Pakistan, and Palestine's Gaza.

ADIZ LIKELY TO BE MADE PERMANENT, AOPA SAYSA lot of things
will be happening in Washington, D.C., over the next two months, and
AOPA said this week that one of those things will probably be a final
rule making the D.C. Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ) a permanent
fixture. The Bush administration is set on pushing the rule through
before they leave office in January, AOPA's Andy Cebula, executive vice
president of government affairs, said this week. "We're going to fight this until the
very end," he added. Cebula and others met with officials from the
Office of Management Budget on Monday and proposed two alternatives to
the permanent ADIZ -- one, to allow an ADIZ to be established by NOTAM
as needed, or two, to shrink the ADIZ from its current 30-nm radius to
20 nm. "Either action would improve general aviation health in the
region," Cebula told OMB officials. GA pilots now regularly avoid the
D.C. metro area, he said, and many aircraft owners who were based inside
the ADIZ have relocated their airplanes or stopped flying. "We also
reminded OMB officials that the government has never presented a
specific, intelligence-based threat assessment to justify the ADIZ,"
Cebula said. More...
EXTENDS DEADLINE FOR GA SECURITY PLAN COMMENTSThe
Transportation Security Administration (TSA) said on Monday it will
extend the time period for public comment on its proposed Large Aircraft
Security Program for general aviation by an additional 60 days, a change
that was lobbied for by GA advocacy groups. The new deadline for public
comment is Feb. 27, 2009. The proposed rules would require criminal
history records checks of GA flight crews, watch-list matching of
passenger manifests, audits of each aircraft operator, and new airport
security requirements. "Granting our request will provide much needed
time for analysis, community education and feedback," said Ed Bolen, CEO
of the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA). EAA had asked for
90-day extension, but said in a news release it is pleased the TSA
responded promptly. "This proposal would be an unprecedented restriction
on the freedom of movement for private U.S. citizens," said Doug Macnair, EAA vice president of government
relations. "It would also, for the first time, require governmental
review and authority before a person could operate his/her own personal
transportation conveyance." AOPA agreed. "This proposal is an
unprecedented move by the TSA into general aviation," said Andy Cebula, AOPA executive vice president of
government affairs. AOPA's news release also noted that "serious
questions" remain about why GA is being considered for these onerous
requirements. For more information about the TSA proposal and how you
can submit comments to the government's public docket, visit the NBAA web
site. More...
FOR SOME, OPPORTUNITY FOR OTHERSWhile many general aviation
manufacturers are cutting back and laying off to cope with the economic
downturn, China's Aviation Industry Corp (AVIC) said recently it is in
the market to buy up a foreign GA manufacturer, to boost its own
technological capabilities. The deal is already in the discussion phase
and is expected to close by the end of this year, according to China Daily. No information was released regarding
what manufacturer might be acquired, or in what country that company is
based. And meanwhile, in Wichita, Kan., workers who have been laid off
from their jobs in the aviation industry will soon have a shot at moving
to sunny Florida. Piper Aircraft, based in Vero Beach, announced this
week it will hold a job fair at the Wichita Airport Hilton next
Thursday, Nov. 20, to hire workers for its PiperJet program and other
projects. Piper seeks engineers to start immediately in
airframe/structural design, stress analysis, electrical and avionics
design, powerplant design, mechanical systems, liaison, industrial and
manufacturing. Anyone seeking an interview should e-mail a resume to email@example.com or call 772-299-2080 by
next Wednesday, Nov. 19. For more information, visit the "Careers" link
at Piper.com.
SALES MANAGER KILLED IN AIRPLANE ACCIDENTJerry Smith,
regional sales manager for the Garmin's aviation division in the south
and central U.S., died on Tuesday in an accident, while piloting his
personal airplane on business. Smith was flying his Cessna Cardinal 177
when he crashed near Rich Mountain, in Mena, Ark. He was a commercial
pilot with instrument, multi-engine and instructor (CFII and MEI)
ratings, and over 20,000 hours of flight time. He was well-known in the
industry, with over 40 years of experience. He had been with Garmin
since 1994, where he was one of the first aviation sales managers hired
by the company. Previously, he worked at BF Goodrich Aerospace, where he
did research flying for Stormscope, as well as TCAS, King Radio, and
others. "Beyond his professional contributions, even more sorely missed
will be his zest for life and sense of humor, which everyone will
remember," Garmin said in a news release. "Our thoughts and prayers are
with Jerry's family, friends, co-workers and customers as their lives
have been changed forever by this tragic event." The cause is still
unknown, Garmin said on Wednesday, but the NTSB and FAA are
investigating and Garmin has offered its full support.
B-17 NEEDS A NEW HOMEAirworthy B-17 bombers are rare birds
indeed, and one of the few that remain is now in danger of becoming
homeless. Texas Raiders, a B-17 owned by the Commemorative Air Force (CAF) Gulf Coast Wing at
Houston Hobby Airport, lives in a hangar whose owner has decided not to
renew the lease when it expires at the end of this month. Since the
airplane is still in restoration mode and not able to fly, a nearby
space is needed to continue the work, which CAF says is only nine months
away from completion. Otherwise, the airplane will have to be dismantled
and shipped to the CAF HQ in Midland, Texas, "nullifying the six years
of hard work and diligence completed by the group of volunteers," the
CAF says. A better solution would be to find a hangar space in Houston
so work can proceed uninterrupted on the vintage bomber. The CAF wing is
holding a news conference on Thursday to publicize the airplane's plight
and hope that someone will come forward with a facility where the
restoration work can continue. "We are desperately seeking assistance
from an individual or corporation which will allow this restoration to
be completed in a protected environment," said CAF President Stephan
Brown. "The CAF Gulf Coast Wing volunteers have spent thousands of hours
and hundreds of thousands of dollars to return this historic hero of
World War II to the skies above Houston. We are hopeful that someone
will step forward to help us realize this dream. All we need is the
space; we'll do the rest." More...
ONLINE FLIGHT-PLANNING TOOLSince we wrote about ChartGeek in
this week's AVwebBiz, we've heard from an
AVweb reader who uses a site called RunwayFinder.com,
also based on Google Maps. This site doesn't have the cool 3-D graphics
that ChartGeek
has developed, but it's free to all comers. Pilots can zoom in to an
airport and check out the runway layouts (as they appeared at the last
Google satellite update, which can be several years old). Airspace
boundaries and other info from the latest sectional and terminal area
charts are laid out seamlessly in their proper locations on the map
surface. Each airport also displays recent weather reports. Multiple
disclaimers note that the site is not for navigation, but it can still
be a useful flight-planning tool. Users can choose to view the area in
chart form, as a satellite image, or in terrain mode. In addition,
routes and range circles can be plotted. More...

PLANS PUBLIC HEARING ON HELICOPTER EMSThe NTSB will hear
from the full spectrum of personnel involved in emergency medical
services using helicopters at a three-day public hearing planned for its
headquarters in Washington Feb. 3-5, 2009. In 2006, the NTSB issued a
special investigation report that found that more than half of all EMS
accidents (41 helicopter and 14 airplane) in the previous three years
could have been prevented if the recommendations in the report had been
followed. There have been nine fatal accidents involving EMS helicopters
in the past 11 months and 35 people have died. "This is a drastic
increase in accidents since the Special Investigation Report and
therefore has prompted the Safety Board to examine this issue in greater
detail by holding this hearing," the board said in a statement.

"FBO of the Week" ribbon goes to Volo Aviation at KEFD in Houston,
AVweb reader Brian Hunnell recommended the
FBO for making an Angel Flight go as smoothly as
I called the folks at Volo Aviation [during
preflight, and] ... they informed me that 100LL would be $3.75 (normally
$3.95) and if we needed "anything" they would accommodate us to the best
of their ability. Landing 10 minutes after closing time, we met Buddy
Roberts, the mid-day and night manager. He gave us a ride to the hotel,
where the patient could relax. This was the patient's first experience
with General Aviation (along with his slightly nervous wife!). Thank
you to all who helped and made this a success.

Overdue daily recurring task
I have a daily recurring task. Some days I don't complete the task, that means I have to complete the task multiple times on a later day.
For example:
November 10: Task not completed
November 11: Task not completed
November 12: Task not completed
November 13: Task not completed
November 14: On this day, I should complete the task 5 times. When I completed it the first time, I mark the task of November 10 as completed. It automatically shedules the task for tomorrow, so November 15, but I want it to be November 11.
Is this possible or is it not able to do this? Or any workaround?
I hope my question is clear.
Thanks in advance.
All responses
Hello Martijn,
Unfortunately, that's not possible. To avoid having to check an overdue task multiple times, we've made it possible to check it just once when you complete it for today.
You're welcome to vote for this related feature request in our Votebox: http://todoist.com/Vote/showProposal/461/ and we may consider changing this behavior in the future.
Best regards,
Hello. I would like to see the behaviour described by Martijn as well but I see it is problematic having to check overdue tasks multiple times.
So my question is - why a daily task gets scheduled for the next day after today, when it could be scheduled for today? That really seems more like a bug than a feature to me.
Can you explain why an overdue, repeated task should be moved to the next occurrence after today and not just today (when it is possible of course)? Thank you.
Hello Radek,
Recurring tasks use the date of completion as a reference. If you complete this task today, then it means it has been completed for today, it then checks the pattern, sees it's "every day" and based on this determines the next occurrence which will be tomorrow (as you're checking it off today).
That said, with a task such as "take out the trash", if you miss it yesterday, you'll take all the trash today, complete it and the next occurrence should be due tomorrow. If you need to call someone with a report each day and miss it yesterday, then again, you'll call today with all the information you've missed so far. In most cases such tasks can't be repeated multiple times to account for missed instances so in the remaining cases, we recommend catching up first, then checking it off once today's instance is also completed :-)
Note - if you need to have this task scheduled for today, instead of checking it off after completing the missed instance, right-click on it and select "Today" instead, then check it off after completing today's instance.
The right-click and selecting "Today" is actually OK. Thank you for your time.

New in the App Catalog of 09 March 2010 24
Hey, look at that, new apps! Yeah, new apps make us smile. Especially when the list of new stuff includes stuff like the bible translated into Klingon or a fantastic homebrew graduate like podcatcher drPodder. It's stuff like this that makes us laugh (because we're giant geeks) or proves useful that makes up for things like the "quotes" apps that we see so much of. For what it's worth, don't worry too much about the App Catalog being overtaken by this stuff - we're not alone. While you won't find Apple and Android patting Palm on the back and saying "It'll be okay, trust us," they've lived through the proliferation of less-than-useful apps as well. How do you think Apple got to more than 140,000 apps? It wasn't sheer willpower, we'll say that much. Regardless, we've got new apps, and you've got a list after the break to check out. Do it.

First. Not only am I the first poster but this is my first post. BAHAHAHAHA COOL APPS
Second time I've been listed as roneyli. Really?
I'm starting to get worried about the 10 new apps a day. Is Palm really not doing that well with developers?
People have grown accustom to 10 or so apps per day. When you factor in that half of them are garbage, you're left with a minuscule amount of apps.
At this point it is really ridiculous. We should be in the dozens if not 100s per day by now. I don't see this changing ANYTIME soon. Probably not in the next year, and quite possibly never.
This is not the OS to go with if you want a wide selection of apps.
You guys are sick of Brighthouse? For non iPhone users (like me) who haven't seen the proliferation before, Brighthouse is just getting started!!!
I think the "Where's my car?" app should be renamed "Why am I an idiot?".
apps are always good! Now time to go back to bed, it's 632am here...wake me up when flash is here, ZZZzzzzz.....lol
Still waiting for the badkitty update and tweed for 99 cents.
Got Dr podder!
I'd like a Bad Kitty trial. The reviews are very mixed on it.
I'm starting to worry too.Palm used to released about 25-30 apps a day,before.Now,it seem like,developers aren't releasing those apps the way the use to,or palm just a little hard on their app review.Well,now with the PDA plugins,hopefully soon we gonna start see some really useful,& well establised apps.For now,we can deal with Brighthouse Labs,Dijit,& the rest of those quotes,story-telling,& calculators apps.Where is FLASH,Palm..?
A bunch of work was done by developers for 1.4 compatibility. This slowed the current offering of new apps.
The Bible...in Klingon? Now that's useful. I'm surprised Blighthouse Labs or Crappible didn't think of it first.
New apps are great, and I believe that a LOT more are on their way. And why are people still complaining to PALM about flash not being available? FLASH IS COMING FROM ADOBE AS AN APP, not Palm. Also, since when is At&t advertising on precentral?
I think Palm has a cunning plan to deal with the kind of app spam we are seeing from Blighthouse.
Palm has allowed full open access to it's App catalogue feed. Any 3rd party developer can now create their own front end for the App Store and implement whatever features they like to hide spam, low quality apps or even vendors.
This way Palm will not come off as be all draconian like Apple, but the user can still use a 3rd party App catalogue without having to wade through a ton of spam.
Now we just need a developer to create this Quality App Store for us.
****Sigh**** Still waiting for an astronomy application. I guess it's too complicated ;)
"Hey, look at that, new apps! Yeah, new apps make us smile."
Well, actually, as I see it it goes
"Hey, look at that, new apps! Yeah, new apps make U.S. smile."
No apps, paid or otherwise for me and I am becoming ever more sceptical March will bring any change.
Palm wants to sell webOS phones? Open the App Catalog to everyone!
That's would be huge push forward.
I think we need more apps, and while were at it, we could also use one of those coolass lazer beams from austin powers, you know.. Like the one dr evil has when he wants to shoot at the moon, but then austin powers stops him from doing so, ha poor dr evil, when is he gonna learn, evil never prevails. Anyways, on a much lighter sibject palm needs to play a little (a lot) catch up with the competition, or they won't have anyone to compete against, were already pretty far behind in the race, and slow and steady won't win this one. Lets face it, iphone is the top dog right now and have been, everyone is comparing their phone to the iphone or amazon to itunes, and so on, which is saying something, BUT we have time and certinaly the technology to do so. So keep up the good work palm, but remember, theress alwys room for improvement.
does anyone know if there is an app like the ones that are for the iphone; like the popping popcorn, the chicks that wash the inside of the phone screen, drinking beer/ soft drink, etc. Those would be nice to have as novelty apps. Tired of the lame crap we have been seeing for the last few months. Or am I just dreaming...?
@SweetPete: you apparently have never parked in a park n' fly, a super walmart, most malls, or a fortune 500 corporate HQ parking lot. =P
How about splitting the list between "Content Apps", and "Functional Apps". That way you could put all of the apps that don't add any functions, just new content (like quotes and books), into a separate list.
This would also set you up in the future, if they start to release official themes, or holiday collections for the calendar, or ?, through the app catalog. (Holiday collections are already available on the Google Calendar website - but may show up as an app in the future).
It helps the folks that are looking for that kind of thing, and the folk who don't need them because we use pReader (*****) and download the classics for free from Project Gutenberg, ManyBooks.net, etc.

Tim vs. the World
I am back from planet Hoth (Wisconsin). It was my very first trip to Wisconsin. My only reference is Jimbo. Surprisingly, Wisconsin is not overrun by Gingers. I found the people pleasant and not bitchy at all. By the way, I love Jimbo dearly... in strict ten minute increments. ;)
What was I doing in Wisconsin? Tim. Yep, it was our fourth meeting. If anyone would like to dissect what kind of man is right for me, it's Tim. He's everything I like in a man. He's manly, shovels snow, drives three hours to fetch me from the airport, and feeds me jalapeno poppers while I lay on the couch.
Like me, Tim didn't cut and run to a gay ghetto. Rather than cowardly hide from heterosexuals and be insulated, Tim bravely bought a bar and grill in a small hilly town in western Wisconsin. I especially love the fact that Tim lives near his family and sees them regularly.
I enjoyed spending a typical weekend in Tim's life. Driving through snow covered small towns away from the hustle and bustle was very romantic. It was nice seeing vast amounts of farm land, silos, and barns away from the sickness that is urban sprawl.
The funny part was hearing the Wisconsin accent. Tim hides it well, but you'll sometimes hear a true version of it when he talks to other Wisconsiners. Every time someone sounded straight out of the movie Fargo, I couldn't stop myself from giggling.
I really adore Tim. He's an important person in my life and I am glad to have him. :)

A late-summer poll shows that the Vermont senator is gaining fast on Clinton in Iowa, and Sanders enthusiasts see evidence that he has appeal "beyond the liberal coasts and union strongholds."
Their big idea to solve income inequality isn't anything new. As Lily Tomlin said, "No matter how cynical you become, it's never enough to keep up."
The trouble, of course, is that Clinton's declaration does not square with the facts.
The chain's latest move is another strike against its holier-than-thou image.
In the final installment of the seven-part interview on The Real News Network, after columnist Chris Hedges tells the Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer that he thinks the American public has been "far more complicit [in the culture of violence] than you give allowance for," Scheer gives an impassioned response about his own experience with manipulation of the working class by elites.
One big reason America was far more equal in the 1950s and 1960s than now is that unions were stronger then.

The Walton family control $145 billion in personal wealth, an amount equivalent to the bottom 42 percent of all Americans. Their employees, meanwhile, depend on food banks and taxpayer-funded welfare programs to survive.
With the Keystone XL pipeline stalled again, now perhaps we can look ahead and consider more promising ways to rebuild our energy system, creating many more jobs than that controversial project ever would.
On the eve of Labor Day, the editors of The New York Times called for a federal "full-employment agenda that regards labor, not corporations, as the center of the economy."

As we burn dead meat and play frisbee in a warming climate, we could stop to consider the lives of the laborers we are theoretically honoring.

Labor Day is a farce. Even public employees—read Wisconsin!—are losing what security America offers. At the minimum, the first Monday in September should be called "Reagan Day."
Drivers for three of the largest companies serving the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach began an "indefinite strike" this week, claiming that they often make below minimum wage and that they have been unfairly labeled as independent contractors, which prevents them from unionizing.
The celebrity economist's proposal of an "international IRS" as a means to end rampant wealth inequality falls far short of methods that exist in the American tradition, Salon columnist Thomas Frank writes in a critique of the best-selling "Capital in the Twenty-First Century."

Workers, students, youths and the poor are all considered expendable in this neoliberal global economy. Yet the one institution that offers opportunities to challenge anti-democratic tendencies is under attack in unparalleled ways.

In 2014, legislation and labor actions could narrow the gap between the rich and the poor.

The anti-union movement won the battle of self-perception. Union-friendly blue-collar workers have been supplanted by white-collar office drones who don't see themselves as candidates for unionization because they don't really see themselves as workers, author Edward McClelland argues.
To help out my friends in organized labor, here is a glossary of key union terms, translated for everyone else.

Thousands of Wal-Mart workers and their union supporters are staging protests across the United States against the company's practice of keeping its employees poor.

If you're wondering why Wal-Mart is advertising about how well it treats its worker bees, it may be because demonstrators have launched an ambitious campaign to draw attention to the retail giant's exploitation and alleged abuse of employees.
As state legislatures prepare for their upcoming sessions, you will no doubt hear a lot about public pensions.

Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon is trying to make an end run around the U.N.'s system for negotiating collective-bargaining agreements with its workers. Maybe he needs to call in his organization's International Labor Organization to monitor its own actions.

As the nation faces a continued and massive gap between the haves and the have-nots, we listen to some different voices and observations about where organized labor is, and where it might be headed.
Fast food and retail workers are striking for the right to unionize and a living wage in seven cities: Milwaukee; Chicago; St. Louis; Kansas City, Mo.; Detroit; Flint, Mich.; and New York City.
In the latest installment of a series of interviews on The Real News Network's "Reality Inserts Itself," the Truthdig columnist says that the Democratic Party once looked out for the interests of labor and the poor. But that changed, he says, when Bill Clinton entered the White House, and it's getting worse under President Obama.

Washington has a way of focusing the nation's attention on tactical games over partisan maneuvers that are symptoms of a few really big problems. But we almost never get to debate or even discuss the big problems because the tactical games overwhelm everything else.

Michigan legislators approved a bill Tuesday that curbs unions' abilities to collect fees from nonunion workers as protesters gathered and were arrested at the state Senate. Lawmakers are also weighing a right-to-work measure that focuses on private sector employees.

What does the drama in Washington over the "fiscal cliff" have to do with strikes and work stoppages among America's lowest-paid workers at Walmart, McDonald's, Burger King and Domino's Pizza? Everything.
Jon Stewart was highly critical of the media outlets that have vilified the big box retailer's employees for wanting to unionize, and for speaking out for better pay and benefits.
About the worker walkout and protest planned across the country this Friday, Wal-Mart said: "These so-called protests involve a handful of associates and a handful of stores. In fact, most of the protesters ... are union organizers and union members who work somewhere else." Says William Fletcher of OUR Walmart: "It's not true."

What the world is witnessing in Chicago as thousands of teachers, staff and support personnel strike is the emergence of a revolutionary ideal that opposes the right of corporations and markets to define the purpose and meaning of public education and the debasement of educational leadership and teaching as a bulwark of democracy.
White House/Pete Souza
Unions are under attack in the United States—not only from people like Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin, but now, with the teachers strike in Chicago, from the very core of President Barack Obama's inner circle, his former chief of staff and current mayor of that city, Rahm Emanuel.
AP/M. Spencer Green
For the first time in 25 years, tens of thousands of teachers are hitting the picket lines in the nation's third-largest school district after contract talks ended without resolution.
It seems no matter the arena, the most cliched move in corporate and political combat is to co-opt an opponent's message, expecting nobody to notice or care.

Back Bar | Cinema Highball
Fat-washing, a technique developed by Sam Mason and Eben Freeman at New York's Tailor, has since proliferated on cocktail menus across the country. Lee experimented with the trend while at PDT, and revisits it here: Rum is infused with popcorn, then fat-washed with clarified butter. When mixed with Coca-Cola, the combination results in the classic flavors of a movie theater.

Disabilities and Special Needs Board
Purpose(s)/Service(s): The Greenville County disabilities and Special Needs Board (GCDSNB) is
a public entity classified as a 501c3 organization which provides services to over two-thousand
(2,000) people in Greenville County with mental retardation, head and spinal cord injuries,
autism and other disabilities in order that these individuals may live their lives as independently

Our mission states "The Greenville County Disabilities and Special Needs Board is committed to providing opportunities for individuals living with lifelong disabilities to reach their maximum potential in becoming productive, active, and integrated citizens of Greenville County." It is GCDSNB's vision to provide the best possible service options and to promote personal freedom through choice, compassion, and encouragement.

The Governor appoints Board members upon recommendation of the Greenville County Council. Persons with a demonstrated interest and background in disabilities and/or human services shall be recommended for appointment. Vacancies on the Board are filled for any unexpired terms in the same manner as original appointment. Members may be removed by the appointing authority for neglect of duty or misconduct in office after being given a written statement of reasons and an opportunity to be heard, or for missing three (3) consecutive meetings.

Portion control is vital in a restaurant. Under-portioning will leave your customers unimpressed with their meal while over-portioning is wasteful and will cost your restaurant money and potential shortages of ingredients. In order to ensure your kitchen staff is using correct portion sizes, Update International recommends its 1-lb. analog portion control scale (UP-71). This scale has a rugged yet easy-to-clean enamel finish and features a large 7-inch analog dial read out. It has a 7" square platform to weigh ingredients to the nearest eighth-ounce.
