Catholics burned alive by Muslims in Nigeria — where's the MSM? – The Brenner Brief (Warning Graphic Images)
Catholics burned alive by Muslims in Nigeria — where's the MSM? – The Brenner Brief.
Those are (were) people of the Catholic faith and citizens of Nigeria. They were burned alive inNigeria by Muslims.
Why in the world isn't the mainstream media covering this? Because it doesn't fit their perfect little meme that the Christians are mean and evil to the innocent Muslims. A few blogs have covered this, but that's all.
The Catholic Church has responded:
Statement by Father Juan Carlos Martos
This is a brutal example of how far the struggle between muslims and catholics in Nigeria has reached. Muslims are determined to impose their 'religion' all over Africa as well as in other continents and countries of the world. Islam has but one goal: rule the world at any cost!
And where are the International Human Rights Organizations? Christians are burnt alive in Nigeria: a horrific Holocaust right in front of International indifference! As denounced by Father Juan Carlos Martos, on behalf of the Missionari Clarettiani, via del Sacro Cuore di Maria, Rome, Italy.
By publishing this graphic document on Facebook, I have intended to make the world aware of certain terrible events totally ignored or minimized by the mainstream media; an authentic genocide so cruel and inhuman only comparable with the most hateful and vile acts in the Nazi extermination camps.
To my great surprise, Facebook has criticized me for the publication of this graphic document as a proof of the Holocaust that Christians have been suffering in Nigeria in the last ten years. According to Facebook's Security policy of the 'social' Network, this photo has been classified as 'pornographic', 'violent' or 'inappropriate' and hence I was disallowed to publish any picture for a week. And I was threatened drastic measures if I insist publishing any document that prove the terrible violations of Human Rights in Nigeria. This attitude by the (Spanish) Facebook Management is an attack to the freedom of expression as much as a shameful insult to the 500 victims (only in this horrible episode) slaughtered by Islamic terror only for being Christian.
I thought that this social network, originated in the United States, would not bend its knees in front of terror. Especially, when still healing their wounds suffered in the gruesome 9/11 attack, just as our own 3/11 at Madrid railway station, all innocent victims of the wild fury and insanity of Islamic terror."
This seems even more unacceptable in Spain, a Democratic state, where the rights of opinion, expression and religion are guaranteed by the Constitution (Art. 16 and 20), if there is an attempt to limit such rights, let alone through threats and coercion thus weakening their freedom of expression by condemning as "inappropriate" a graphic document (not a photomontage) which reflects a brutal reality in all its crudeness.
Contrarily, the Administrators of Facebook Spain should welcome this public protest advocating that such a barbarian act will never be replicated and that its perpetrators will be brought to justice. This is a right and duty of every citizen: a service to society, ultimate goal, I feel, of any network that defines itself as 'social'.
Regrettably, if the murders continue, this is greatly because truth is always hidden to the sovereign people, so that they may not be aware and 'disdained' by it: complicit silence by the mainstream media leads to the indifference of the
international political community facing this unspeakable Holocaust! Let alone the cowardice already rooted in the western world facing the islamic terror. A consequence of the stupid "Alliance of civilizations": another regrettable incident of our former Prime Minister Rodriguez Zapatero.
Can you imagine the reaction of the Islamic terrorist organization in the (impossible) case of a massacre of Muslims in a mosque, by the hands of Christian terrorists? And how widely would our media cover and condemn the crime and the criminals?
Therefore, from this modest blog, I ask a favor from all people who are reading me: please distribute this photo and its comments using all the media you have. If only for commemorating these martyrs since, unfortunately, Facebook seems to be on the side of the executioners by preventing the publication of such tragic events.

The Educating of Sandra Fluke
The purpose of this post is not to judge Ms. Fluke, it is simply to take a very simple look at the impact of her actions upon her own future, Liberals, and higher education. Let's start with Ms. Fluke herself:
- Like any high school student wanting to attend college, or wanting to get a job, any google search will forever find her testimony to Congress and will judge her qualifications, at least in part, on what she herself had to say. She is in Law School, so it is safe to assume that she wants to be an attorney.
- Reliability–How reliable can you be if you display such little restraint in your personal life?
- Dependability–If you are not willing to take responsibility for your actions, how can you be trusted to represent others when their lives, jobs, and futures are possibly at stake.
- Decorum—well, if you don't stop to think about it before you announce to the whole world that you are a little ??? (I truly don't want to use the word that others are banding about, but I am having trouble thinking of something else that might be suitable)
- Knowledgeable—You really did not seem to consider the consequences of your actions, so that brings into question your intelligence.
- Trustworthiness— Your parents obviously trusted you to get an education so that you could provide for yourself, your actions seem to have cast some doubt on that ability.
- Accountability—no question there is there, you have told the world that you don't want to be held accountable for the results of your actions. You want the rest of us to pay for birth control so that you can be irresponsible without being accountable for the consequences.
As far as Liberals, it just shows the distance that they will go to make everyone else pay for what they think that they deserve and that they are willing to go to any lengths in order to force their will upon everyone else.
Higher Education—If this women is a fair representation, I would personally put that at a fail. If a thirty year old woman is no smarter that a sixteen year old who puts things that are improper on Facebook, you really have to question whether they are teaching anything worth learning or if they are simply baby sitting young adults and gracing them with degrees in order to get them out of their parents hair. And perhaps get as much money from them and the government as possible.
No wonder this country is in the trouble that it is in. Perhaps we need to look to less college and more factories. You learn responsibility real quick when your future depends on how you handle your job. You also learn the consequences of spending too much money, and how to deal fairly with people. Just think about the money that would be saved if instead of wasting time on irresponsible unproductive people who spend most of their times doing things that are totally irrelevant to society and their own future prospects as members of society. Parents wouldn't be going broke, and birth control wouldn't be the problem that Liberals seem to think that it is. If people are too busy providing for themselves and can't afford the cost of their own irresponsible actions, they would be less inclined to be so immoral in their actions.
Ms. Fluke, I do not know you or your parents, but if you were my daughter or grand daughter, I would not be happy with your actions. Have you bothered to consider what people might think of them and how they raised you? I will keep you in my prayers, I have the feeling that you will need them pretty much. After all, sooner or later we all pay for our actions and you have run up a very big bill!
Perhaps, as a last thought, I should take time to thank you, Ms. Fluke! You have given the rest of us an education as regards to the immorality and ignorance that is taking place both in colleges and upon Capitol Hill, among the member of our government that we are paying to represent us. It seems obvious that we could save enormous amounts of money if we fire these people and get our government out of the lives of regular Americans who understand the values that you are lacking in!

Opening Pandora's Box; The Road Ahead
In Matthew 6:4 Your word says not to worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today's worries are enough for today. So I will not dwell on the road ahead. Your word says Do Not Fear. So, I will not operate in fear. Instead, I hope. I know that you are my source of strength and that when I am weak then you are strong.
I know that I am hidden in you; the one coming to kill my soul will never find me. When I feel afflicted I can be still and know that you are God. You are bigger than my feelings. Even when the storm feels overwhelming and the waves are higher than my head and all I can seem to see is danger, the truth is, You protect me and I will find no safer place than in your embrace. Though the waves seem as if they are going to pound the very air from my chest, I am sheltered in you. Read the rest at The Woman At The Well:

Insanity In A Small Town

GOULD, AR – "I feel as though our city is being held hostage by the city council," said Gould Mayor Earnest Nash.
Gould, Arkansas is made up of about 850 people. 850 people the Mayor believes will soon have cause for 850 lawsuits.
"This is America and even though this is Gould, Arkansas, this is still part of America. And in America, you can't just vote and violate peoples constitutional rights," said Nash.
Monday night, the city council wrote an ordinance disbanding a citizen's group and forbidding any future groups from forming without city council approval.
The ordinance states, "No new organizations shall be allowed to exist within the city of Gould without approval from majority of the city council."
Another ordinance bans the mayor from meeting with anyone without council approval.
"To tell me that I can't travel and I can't go to meetings and I can't get the money that we need – that's ludicrous!" said the Mayor.
"In everything, you have somebody in control over it. In everything," said Council Member Sonja Farley.
Farley says no matter the group, if you discuss the city at all, the meeting must be approved by the city council.
"You couldn't just come in here and get with four people and decide you want to start an organization," said Farley. "You will go through your city council with documentation, the right paperwork and get an approval."
"To tell me as the mayor I can't meet with all of the people in this room and inform them of city business, that's ludicrous," said Nash.
The Gould Citizens Advisory Commission is banned from meeting in the ordinance. They argue this new potential law would violate their constitutional rights.
"This will not be signed," said the Mayor. "This will not be signed into law. I promise you that. If they want it signed into law, I'll repute it again. They can take me to court."
Currently, as written, the ordinance is extremely vague. Right now it encompasses boy scout troops, book clubs and even discussing city matters with your family in your own home.
The Mayor vetoed the ordinance at Monday night's meeting on a technicality but fears once it's brought up at the council's August meeting, he won't be able to stop it from becoming law.

Before I began SparkPeople I hadn't felt real hunger in years. After I started Sparkpeople I have felt a little hungry (at times) every single day. The first few days I confused "Hunger" with "Dying", it was that unfamiliar and uncomfortable for me. But I am losing weight, so now I am beginning to associate the feeling of hunger with the knowledge that I am choosing a new outcome. Now I'm proud of myself for allowing my tank to get empty before filling it up again, I feel much more in control now.
Eating three balanced small meals a day with 2 snacks helps to control hunger.
Hunger is usually you body's way of saying I am dehydrated, since we are more likely to respond to hunger than thirst
Hunger isn't necessarily for food!When I am tired, I am hungry for sleep.When I am thirsty, I am hungry for liquids.When I am feeling down, I'm hungry for support.When I am feeling lonely, I'm hungry for people.Don't eat food when you need friends, or fluids, or sleep!!! Recognize what your hunger actually is for, and satisfy it with what it is craving. Ice cream rarely gives you extra sleep, quenches your thirst, or gives you a hug!

Hilary Duff appeared on "Good Morning America" Monday to promote her new book, "Devoted," but she seemed downright giddy when asked to dish on her pregnancy. "Everyone else says it's a girl, but I think it's a boy," the 24-year-old ventured, adding that if she and her husband, Mike Comrie, choose an unconventional name, they'll go with "a normal middle name" so he or she has a choice. As for cravings, Hilary admitted, "When I get something on my mind I want, I want it now, I'm ferocious. I'm always up for Red Hots, which is so weird because I've never liked them before. Thank god it isn't fried and covered in butter." Duff's new book is a follow-up to her best-selling debut, "Elixir." (HuffPo)

Reality IS stranger than fiction ...
LEAKED NETWORK MEMO REVEALS: Obama Controls Your Television Set
On September 10th of this year the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF) posted a press release informing the world that "from October 19-25, more than 60 network TV shows [will] spotlight the power and personal benefits of service," and that this "unprecedented block of TV programming is the first wave of a multi-year 'I Participate' campaign."
But this year there are a couple new strangers in town: "Volunteerism" and "Service." You've heard of them. Their names have been bandied everywhere since President Obama took office, and this internal memo from the EIF to network showrunners obtained by Big Hollywood shows that the entertainment industry is well acquainted and eager to introduce both to as vast an audience as possible ...
Like the NEA story, once again we see the same buzzwords pop up; suggested topics pitched to an overwhelmingly left-of-center group: Education, health, environment, the economy and lastly — almost as an afterthought as some kind of "bi-partisan" cover – support for military families.
"We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security
objectives we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force
that is just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded." - Barack Obama
Search and Ye Shall Find…Left-Wing Advocacy
My ten-year-old daughter loves "So You Think You Can Dance." I suspect most eight to eighteen-year-old girls do. So, my question to the producers of this hit show is: "Why are you pointing my daughter to a web page asking her to work at Planned Parenthood?"
The plan is to weave volunteerism and service into the plots of their shows and then, ultimately, encourage viewers to get up off their sofas and go to a handful of web pages that are meant to provide opportunities for service ... these seemingly benign volunteer search engines often seem to be Trojan Horses for controversial, left-wing causes.
If your 12 year-old hears about this volunteer initiative and follows the lead of her favorite TV star, she will go to www.createthegood.com and type in her favorite cause. If she's been paying attention to the news these days (or listening to the lectures from most public school teachers) she will know that "Health Care" is a big deal these days. All she has to do is type "Health Care" into the search engine with her zip code ...
Go ahead ... Look at items "H", "I" and "L." All are from Planned Parenthood ...
[A]lso take a look at that really nifty video listed second from the top ... called: "How To Spread The Truth About Health Care Reform" ...
This nifty bit of propaganda encourages you to troll on blogs and leave comments, call in to talk radio shows and generally be annoying when people discuss ObamaCare by injecting Administration talking points found on AARP's web page ...
All Americans between the ages of eighteen and twenty-five will be asked to serve
their country by going through three months of basic training, civil defense preparation
and community service." - Rahm Emanuel
All of these efforts are driving would-be volunteers ... for what purpose?
Buffy Wicks didn't state that national recovery was the rationale for encouraging partisans to serve. She conveyed that the White House was interested in transitioning partisans from the election cycle into the administration, and using "service" as the mechanism for this transition.
These partisan volunteer efforts along with the expansion of The Corporation are alarming signs. Through expanding the size and power of The Corporation, the Administration is in essence organizing and increasing the pool of resources that helped it acquire power.
"We should be owned, as soldiers are by the army, and
our pride would rise accordingly." - William James
The Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act (formally the Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education (GIVE) Act) was signed into law by President Obama on April 21, 2009. Where was the media? Well, the State Organs weren't about to touch this one, but what about the rest? I don't know.
These are just more steps towards the creation of their Grand Plan - a "civilian national security force." You gotta give it to them though ... Taking a mandatory program that pays people (at the cost of almost $1 billion a year), then promoting it as a "voluntary service" program, would make George Orwell proud!
The reality here is that "service," in this context, is just a euphemism for slavery! Didn't we wipe-out slavery for good reasons? Do Americans even enjoy freedom anymore? If so, then why do so many people fall prey to this (or any other) government Grand Plan?
But this is the Progressive Vision - obedience to the State and uniformity in all things. In other words, collectivism. Progressives consider service to the State to be a higher value than personal liberty. And notice too, the focus on kids. Do parents have a right to raise their kids, or does the State?
If AmeriCorps were simply a garden-variety boondoggle, the fairy tales about its achievements would be relatively benign (except to taxpayers). But some politicians hope to exploit AmeriCorps's cachet to gin up support for imposing compulsory labor requirements on all young Americans.
The GIVE act calls for the appointment of a Congressional Commission on Civic Service, raising the obvious question of whether congressmen deserve vastly more power over other Americans. But in Washington logic, since volunteering is a good thing, everybody should be forced to do it.
The commission will examine "the effect on the nation ... if all individuals in the United States ... were required to perform a certain amount of national service" and "whether a workable, fair, and reasonable mandatory service requirement for all able young people could be developed." It will also consider whether tacitly repealing the 13th Amendment prohibition on involuntary servitude "would strengthen the social fabric of the Nation and overcome civic challenges by bringing together people from diverse economic, ethnic, and educational backgrounds."
Would political subjugation produce moral uplift? The Beltway answer: of course—because politicians are the nation's leaders, the de facto "best and brightest." While they are destroying the nation's financial future with one trillion-dollar bailout after another, they have the gall to lecture young people about their obligations to the government.
The GIVE Act views military-style regimentation as a model for the nation. Its National Civil Community Corps would seek to "combine the best practices of civilian service with the best aspects of military service.
This is part of a long series of Democratic Party efforts to create pretexts to commandeer more of people's lives. A dozen years ago, in a stunning conflation of compassion and compulsion, President Clinton announced that America needs "citizen servants." He declared, "The will to serve has never been stronger." That may or may not have been true, but the will to power is certainly at a high-water mark.
[T]he GIVE Act is idealistic only if one believes that citizens should take their values—and their "moral opportunities"—from their rulers.
It is a sad day when people line up to have their virtue certified by the most exploitative, dishonest class in the nation.
This should scare the hell out of you!
". . . slavery is non-ownership of one's Person and Labor. It is involuntary servitude.
A slave must work under a whip, real or figurative, wielded by other persons, his owners, with no say in how (or even if) his labors are compensated. His is a one-way contract he cannot opt out of. A slave is tied to his master (and to the land where he labors).
He cannot simply quit if he doesn't like it. Moreover, a slave can be bought and sold like any other commodity." - Steven Yates

It's an ever-changing scene over at the site of our new patient care building in St. Paul. In fact, it's looking more and more like an actual building each day. That's thanks to immense amounts of concrete, delivered truckload by truckload, then poured to create the beginnings of our building's outer walls. Last week, crews poured our very first wall. But what a difference a week makes—we now have a tall cement wall directly against our hillside.
Margaret Perryman, our CEO, continues to excitedly monitor our progress. Take a look at this week's photo, taken right from her office window:
And here is a close-up:
So far, we've used more than 1,150 cubic yards (just one cubic yard is the same as 4,200 pounds!) of concrete. But it's a slow going process. To ensure the concrete dries with strength and stability, crews must pour just 4 feet per hour — starting at the ground level and steadily pouring higher and higher walls.
In more exciting news, the first of our building's steel beams should arrive next week. Be sure to check back often to see our building's steel "skeleton" take shape.

Meanwhile, the American government is dispatching missile-laden flying robots to kill people in other countries, including U.S. citizens who have been convicted of no crime and children who are in the wrong place at the wrong time.
In the wake of the recent massacre of children at a Connecticut school, American gun shops sold out of the kind of gun and magazine ...

Restaurant Nutrition Exposed
- June 23, 2014
- Jennifer Welsh
- Leave a comment
With relatively new food labeling laws, large restaurant chains are required to print restaurant nutrition information on their restaurant menus. Small food businesses are not obligated to do so, but some may choose to offer their customers this option, in order to show their support of healthy restaurant eating. Other venues may choose to simply provide menu labels near healthy options, rather than specific nutrition facts. Either way, a study by Drexel University's School of Public Health has shown that restaurant nutrition information impacts customers' purchasing decisions, ultimately leading customers to ordering fewer calories. Restaurant menus with healthy restaurant eating options may benefit from letting customers know about their healthy restaurant menus. However, despite the added comfort for dieting and health-conscious customers, restaurant nutrition labelling is usually not a worthwhile investment for small businesses, when not required by law.
The Pros
Menu labelling is a restaurant marketing strategy that can attract customers on a strict diet. Those effected with diabetes and obesity can clearly benefit from knowledge of carbohydrate, sugar, fat and caloric meal content. A venue that offers healthy restaurant eating options should be confident enough in their restaurant menus to add a nutrition facts label, at least to some menu items. Many consumers are aware of the studies that have been done, showing that an overwhelming majority underestimate the caloric content of restaurant and fast food chain menu items. However, by being shown the estimated restaurant nutrition information for menu items, consumers may realize that restaurant menus usually contain some relatively healthy options, even beyond salad, and feel more comfortable dining out at that particular venue.
The Cons
Despite the possibility of drawing in more customers, menu nutritional analysis and posting restaurant nutrition facts may not be the best decision for a venue not required to do so by law. Menu nutritional analysis is an expensive process that has not been proven to help venues draw in customers. In addition, menu nutritional analysis cannot take portion size difference and the way different chefs cook, into account. For example, some cooks add a lot of oil to a pan before frying an omelet, adding fat and calories, while others use the bare minimum. Businesses that update their restaurant menus on a regular or semi-regular basis will have to regularly invest in menu nutritional analysis, adding expenses to an already tough business.
Overall, venues planning to soon reach the location number limit, which would require them to show nutrition facts for their restaurant menus, should consider investing in menu nutritional analysis. Healthy restaurants aiming to reach the dieting and health-conscious markets may benefit from increased business and customer satisfaction if they choose to undergo menu nutritional analysis and post a nutritional facts label on menus. However, for the typical, small restaurant business, menu nutritional analysis is an investment that has not been proven to pay off.

William Luntz and Richard Barnard were honored by Walsh University on Dec. 18 when more than 100 summer and fall graduates were awarded their degrees at the college's graduation ceremony.
William Luntz and Richard Barnard were honored by Walsh University on Dec. 18 when more than 100 summer and fall graduates were awarded their degrees at the college's graduation ceremony.
But Luntz and Barnard weren't honored for earning degrees. They were honored for their service to the university and the community. During the ceremony, Luntz and Barnard were awarded Distinguished Service Medals, given to those who have rendered distinguished professional or voluntary service to others within the national, regional or local Walsh community.
Born in Canton, Luntz has dedicated his life to serving. His philosophy is expressed in one of his favorite quotes by Albert Schweitzer: "To teach by example is not the best way, it is the only way."
As retired president and CEO of Luntz Corp., he is known for lending his vision and experience to numerous civic and charitable programs throughout Stark County. His list of awards, recognitions and community service projects is extensive and includes being a founder and trustee of many local organizations, such as the Rehabilitation Clinic, Canton Country Day School and Junior Achievement of Stark County. He also served on the boards of dozens of organizations, among them is Stark Mental Health, Palace Theatre, United Way Campaign, United Negro College Fund, Fund for the Arts, Stark Community Foundation, Area Agency on Aging Foundation and the Canton Jewish Community Center. He also founded Project Wheelbarrow, a mentoring program established in 1993 that uses positive life mentors to help kids develop the skills necessary to continue their education and obtain good jobs.
Luntz was instrumental in establishing the Walsh Jewish-Catholic Studies Institute, which promotes dialog and study of Jewish and Christian history, thought and belief.
Barnard, a 1951 Kent State University graduate in business administration, served as the director of Christian Education at Christ Presbyterian Church in Canton for 41 years. He was involved in directing the Thursday Fellowship Program that was created to provide discussion, Bible study and recreation for local children and youth. The program was staffed with volunteers from the church and served as a support to the neighborhood for 20 years. In 1959, Barnard helped to establish a new venture into Christian camping as the director of Christ Presbyterian's Camp Wakonda.
He did not limit his life's mission to the Stark County area. Barnard also organized and led numerous faith-based mission trips, art trips and fellowship retreats all over the world. For more than 25 years, he led youth and adults on mission trips to serve Porcupine Presbyterian Church on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Barnard also co-led youth and adults to the Christian community of Taize, France, which welcomes Christians from all over the world to gather for discussion, fellowship and worship. He remains active by organizing Christmas presents each year for children of Porcupine Presbyterian Church and helping to serve supper to the Timken football team as an outreach of Christ Presbyterian Church.

Well, the Ferengi were deliberately made huge on the viewscreen in "The Last Outpost." It was even explicitly stated in dialogue that the image was distorted in some way. The idea was that the Ferengi were making themselves look big and scary to compensate for how small they really were (shades of Balok).
Anyway, why wouldn't there be a discrepancy? It's not as if every alien ship commander or government official would all be sitting exactly the same distance from their cameras and have them all on the exact same zoom setting.

Downtown Provo has a new tenant to complement the economic growth of the city. The Utah Valley Convention Center opens this Saturday, May 12. Construction on the new building began in June 2010.
The building is LEED Silver certified for its green design, construction, operation and maintenance. It is 143,000 square feet in total, with 83,578 square feet of combined meeting, pre-function and garden space, and a full-service kitchen. It was carefully planned out to provide complete in-house services including food & beverage, audio visual, internet, electrical and tradeshow decorating services. And, conveniently, walls and rooms are adjustable to fit the sizing requirements for any event.
The Utah Valley Convention Center is the first of its kind in the area, and the UVCVB projects the total economic impact will be approximately $18 million, generated by events and activities.
"We'll be able to host events that normally wouldn't have thought of coming to Utah County because now we have a center that can hold true convention groups," said Tennille Wanner, director of sales & marketing for Global Spectrum. "It will bring more out of town guests to the area, which will bring more shopping. It creates an economic impact that has to do with tourism and dining and entertainment."
The center is managed by Global Spectrum, owned by Utah County and located in Provo at 220 Ws. Center Street. Utah County's partners in this effort include Salt Lake City architect MHTN, Kansas City, MO. designer Populous, Okland Construction and worldwide venue management company Global Spectrum.
Global Spectrums Director of Operations Scott Kavanaugh said, "I have worked in numerous convention centers and few compare in overall elegance and appeal. Populous and MHTN have done an excellent job tying in the beauty of the Wasatch Mountains and the downtown Provo feel. We can't wait to add to what has already been done for this great facility."

Attention Wal-Mart shoppers, the doctor is in.
Solantic, an urgent care company based in Jacksonville, has struck a deal with the world's largest retailer to locate walk-in clinics in two of its stores in Florida.
Each center has a board-certified physician on duty.
Solantic says the flexible hours will make it easier for people who rarely see a doctor to do so without going to an emergency room.
In addition, the days of cooling your heels in a waiting room are over. Solantic says after you check in, you can go out and shop in the store and you'll be paged or called on your cell phone when it's time for your appointment.
Solantic says if the Florida experiment is successful, the concept could be taken nationwide.

A 50-Year Blessing
Leah Weber DMLC '67 (at the chalkboard) student taught in a St. Paul's-New Ulm classroom under the supervision of Mrs. Erich Sievert (standing, left). Beginning in the late 60s, more and more students completed their student teaching outside New Ulm.
2013-2014 marks the 50th year WELS congregations and schools have partnered with D/MLC in the student teaching program. Professor Emeritus Howard Wessel, a former supervisor in the program, gives us the historical perspective on this milestone, and Professor Paul Tess, director of clinical experiences, explains how the program works today.
1964-65: A New Era Begins
By Professor Emeritus Howard Wessel DMLC '59
Prior to 1964 all DMLC students completed their two- or three-week "practice teaching" at St. Paul's in New Ulm. The college staffed the "practice rooms" with college faculty while the student teachers did most of the actual teaching. No doubt the most unfortunate aspect of this arrangement was that students missed on-campus classes for two or three weeks and, after their teaching term, had to complete the backlog of daily work, paper, and tests—sometimes over summer vacation.
In the early 1960s, the college undertook a major revision of the curriculum, including student teaching. The goal was to make student teaching a full-time, eight- or nine-week experience. Because St. Paul's could not accommodate this expansion, the college looked to other areas well populated with WELS elementary schools: Appleton and Watertown, Wisconsin.
Professor Emeritus Dr. Arthur Schulz was the chief architect of the new program. During 1963 he, together with the late Professors George Heckmann and Erich Sievert, met with Appleton and Watertown area congregations to introduce the program.
The congregations agreed to participate, and in 1964-65 the program was implemented. Forty-four seniors were assigned to 19 schools, Appleton in the first and third quarters and Watertown in the second and fourth quarters. Thirty-one teachers served as classroom supervisors.
It's interesting to note that four of those first supervisors (Robert Averbeck, Otto Schenk, George LaGrow, and Robert Stoltz) and two of the first student teachers (David Pelzl and Susan Haar) later served as D/MLC faculty.
Dr. Arthur Schulz was the first acting director of student teaching, and the late Professor George Heckmann and Professor Emeritus Howard Wessel served as the first two college supervisors, traveling to the schools, encouraging and evaluating student teachers and conferencing with the classroom supervisors. In 1968, Wessel took over the directorship from Schulz and served until 1999. Many faculty members served as college supervisors through the years, with the late Professor Gerhard Bauer serving the longest: 19 years.
Until 1997, the college also continued to staff several classrooms at St. Paul's in New Ulm, rooms in which two student teachers gained their experience every quarter.
Without the willing cooperation of classroom supervisors, principals, and congregations—as well as hundreds of people who opened their homes to student teachers—the college could not have offered this meaningful student teaching experience. The whole campus family, past and present, recognizes the blessings God has provided through this wonderful partnership with cooperating congregations.
2013-14 The Blessings Continue
By Professor Paul Tess DMLC '74
Much has changed since the early years Professor Wessel described, though a nine- or ten-week student teaching experience in Lutheran schools remains the capstone of our teacher-training program. MLC education majors also experience 800 hours of EFEs (early field experiences), clinicals, and public school student teaching, which is required for Minnesota state licensure.
Off-campus training experiences range far and wide. Seniors still student teach in Minnesota and Wisconsin, but also in Nebraska, Illinois, and South Dakota; and one-time grants enabled some to student teach as far away as Washington and Florida. College supervisors still visit students on site, but they have also visited distant students online through Skype.
What hasn't changed is that student teaching enables candidates to learn effective teacher behavior through observation and practice. They see the relationships that exist in Lutheran schools, the responsibilities of a teaching minister, and the entire life of a congregation.
Not to be overlooked (and echoing Professor Wessel's appreciation), the willing cooperation of congregations, supervising teachers, principals, and host families is the blessing that makes student teaching the strong program it is. I am also grateful for the pioneers who 50 years ago had a vision for student teaching as an invaluable training ground for future harvest workers.

Former Apollo resident charged in rash of 2010 burglaries
Apollo Police said they connected a man with a history of theft to a series of daytime burglaries committed in the borough in 2010.
Adam J. Bubash, 33, of Boswell, Somerset County and formerly of Apollo, faces multiple charges, including burglary, criminal trespass and theft, jail records show. He is being held in the Armstrong County Jail on $25,000 bond. A preliminary hearing is set for Wednesday
Apollo Police officer Ralph Varrato said fingerprints and DNA connected Bubash to the rash of break-ins.
Police believe Bubash committed about 10 burglaries in the area before he was jailed in October 2010 for trying to break into a home in Harrison.
In July 2010, Apollo Police reported that someone had broken into seven homes in the northern portion of the borough since the beginning of the year.
Varrato said the thief usually took jewelry and coins. In one case, the burglar stole porcelain dolls, police said.
Some of the items later showed up in Pittsburgh pawn shops.
Police say Bubash pleaded guilty in the Harrison break-in. Most recently, he pleaded guilty in January 2011 for a theft in Arnold.

text: By DOUG HAIDET T-G Sports Writer It will take two games to tango for this title. Unbeaten and in the drivers seat to claim the Ashland youth baseball minor league tournament crown Wednesday, Enhanced Homes Painting fell victim to the quick-start offense and door-shutting pitching of Home Hardware at Brookside Park, 8-2. After suffering its first loss in the double-elimination tournament at the hands of Enhanced Homes (7-0 in the second round), Home Hardware posted four runs in both the first and third innings Wednesday and received a dozen strikeouts from its mound arms to force a title-deciding game today at Brookside at 6 p.m. Theyve all been good games like this one; were pretty evenly matched, said Home Hardware coach Greg Cayse, whose team now is 2-2 against Enhanced Homes this season. When they knocked us into the losers bracket, we only had one hit off of them. So scoring four in the first inning was huge for our confidence. All of those first-inning tallies came with two outs for Home Hardware, as Nick Zurcher (run), Joseph Rahl (triple, two runs, four RBIs), Taylor Brown (double, RBI, two runs) and Owen Smith (double, RBI) had consecutive hits to crack the scoreboard quickly. Enhanced Homes returned half the favor in the bottom of the inning, scoring twice behind three straight two-out hits from Jake Hammer (run), Lance Kolp (triple, RBI, run) and Spencer Pelton (double, single, RBI), but the teams runs stopped there and Home Hardware added four more in the third for insurance. Those two big innings really set the tone for the game and they had good defense behind them, Enhanced Homes coach Rob Obrecht said. Their pitching really kept us at bay and they deserved to win the game. Zurcher (four strikeouts) and Rahl (five) combined to hold Enhanced Homes to just two hits over the final four innings after Collin Cayse struck out three batters in his two innings of work, and two defensive gems for Home Hardware aided in the effort. Rahl picked a line drive out of the air at first base to steal a hit in the third, and a perfect relay throw for Home Hardware shot down a baserunner at third base in the fourth. Today, we played good defense and got good pitching, and thats going to win you ballgames, coach Cayse said. But Enhanced Homes put a few good arms on the hill, too. Starter Zach Obrecht struck out five hitters in two innings, Tyler Hamilton added another pair of whiffs in an inning of work and Jake Hammer sent six batters down on three strikes over the final three frames. Coach Obrecht mentioned he thinks the efforts of both teams in that aspect most likely will run into todays championship contest. I think the games going to be won or lost on the mound, he said. It will be whoever can scrap a run or two together. Jon Rhoades added a pair of hits and also walked for Home Hardware, joining Collin Cayse as the only two players to reach base in three different at-bats. Whatever happens (today) happens, coach Obrecht said. Both teams have had a great season, and unfortunately, only one team can win. n Contact Doug Haidet, sports writer, at 419-281-0581, ext. 245, or email@example.com.

Bluewater Thermal Solutions can meet the most demanding requirements for dimensional tolerances and metallurgical specifications. One example is bearing races being carburized, hardened and tempered for a major Japanese automotive supplier. These bearing races have stringent requirements for dimensional tolerances that must be maintained to ensure proper fit and function. They also have demanding metallurgical requirements for the case and core microstructure, carbon content, and hardness profiles. These metallurgical properties are tailored to optimize wear resistance, toughness/ductility and fatigue life in order to prevent failures in service.
Prior to commencing production, Bluewater's metallurgical experts met with the customer's design engineers in order to develop a thorough understanding of the parts and requirements. These cooperative consultations are a critical element to success as it guarantees that all requirements are communicated clearly and all parties involved are working together towards a clear goal.
Once the requirements were understood, Bluewater Thermal Solutions decided that a dedicated furnace was needed to meet the special requirements for these parts. A continuous mesh belt furnace was commissioned for this business. Customized process parameters along with a special marquenching procedure were developed jointly by the Bluewater and customer's metallurgical team in order to develop the desired surface carbon concentrations, hardness gradients and core properties. The dedicated furnace being utilized for these bearing races processes only these parts as it has been custom configured to treat these bearing races using the engineered thermal solution designed by the team.
Bluewater offers the metallurgical and heat treatment expertise necessary to meet the toughest requirements in the industry on demanding components such as automotive bearings races. Bluewater has many locations that operate dedicated and specialized equipment for components that cannot be treated in conventional furnaces.

NASHVILLE, TENN. — When moldy medicine is injected into peoples spinal columns, spawning incredibly rare forms of fungal meningitis, doctors have few treatment options and dont know how to keep people from getting sick.
The toll from a nationwide outbreak of fungal meningitis continued to rise Wednesday, with 170 cases reported, including 14 deaths, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Tennessee has 49 of those cases, including six deaths. Among the people sickened by the medication are two New Jersey men, both residents of Cumberland County, health officials say.
The CDC also is warning that people who got injections of the recalled steroid medicine, methylprednisolone acetate, in their knees and other joints could develop septic arthritis.
At the epicenter of the outbreak, infectious disease specialist Dr. Robert Latham is doing what he can for the 25 patients with fungal meningitis at St. Thomas Hospital in Nashville.
His options are limited.
The two anti-fungal medicines in his arsenal voriconazole and amphotericin B have such vicious side effects that one carries the nickname ampho-terrible. The drugs fight the fungus but can damage the liver and kidneys. They shouldnt be given unless a patients spinal fluid is clouded by infection, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Patients ill enough to receive the drugs can expect to be tethered to an intravenous drip for months.
Medical research provides little guidance for doctors and scant case history to predict the outcome.
I dont think anybody in the country or the world, except for some very rare exceptions, has seen anything like this certainly not at the volume were seeing now, Latham said.
But the drugs are showing results, he said.
I can tell you with the people weve been treating the longest, were seeing improvement in their spinal fluid, he said Wednesday.
No preventive medicine
Dozens more people sick with worry come to the Tennessee hospital wondering if the soreness in their necks is from tension or a first symptom of fungal meningitis something they may have contracted through tainted epidural spinal injections at the St. Thomas Outpatient Neurosurgery Center on the hospitals ninth floor. Desperate to keep from getting ill, the patients from there and two other Tennessee pain clinics ask for preventive medicine.
Do they not have something if this was to occur? said Lourdes Gonzalez, who got her injections of the potentially contaminated steroid at the Specialty Surgery Center in Crossville, Tenn.
But health officials say they know of nothing that can protect those exposed to the recalled drugs.
For people who show symptoms of the disease, a doctor will perform a spinal tap so the fluid can be tested for fungi linked to the outbreak. If the test turns out negative, the patient is sent home but without a clear bill of health. The pathogens can hide inside the spinal canal and not show up initially.
And its not clear how long it can take for patients to develop meningitis after getting a tainted injection.
This is a type of meningitis that has not been seen before, said Dr. Steven Linn Steven Linn, South Jersey Healthcares chief medical officer. It was initially thought that the incubation period would be one to four weeks, but because there are no case studies to look back on, it is likely this may be modified as more information becomes available.
The CDC currently does not recommend prescribing the antifungals as a preventive measure. Some of the nations top infectious disease experts have talked about the pros and cons of such an action, but they can only guess whether a pre-emptive strike would work.
We would be going to Mars, in effect, said Dr. William Schaffner, a Vanderbilt professor who is president of the National Foundation for Infectious Disease.
Using the medicine in such a way could be potentially hazardous to patients, who may have gotten injections from a fungus-free vial, Shaffner said. And he said theres no proof the treatment would keep people from getting sick.
Small chance of illness
Most people exposed to the possibly tainted drugs will not get fungal meningitis, health officials say although some may have better chances than others, depending on which lot of recalled medicine was used for their injections.
The federal government has identified about 75 facilities in 23 states that received the recalled medicine. They include Premier Orthopaedic Associates in Vineland, and South Jersey Healthcare facilities in Vineland and Elmer.
Three lots of methylprednisolone acetate were recalled, but one has shown a higher attack rate than the other two, said Dr. David Reagan, chief medical officer for the Tennessee Department of Health.
Even for those receiving shots from that lot of medicine, the chance of illness is relatively small, Reagan said. Currently, it changes, but it is a bit less than 5 percent of the people that have been exposed. Some lots have substantially less percentage than that.
Symptoms of meningitis include stiff neck, worsening headache or fever. Its not contagious.
Infection of an arthritic joint, such as a knee, may be occurring if someone who got an injection suffers new or worsening pain with swelling, redness, and warmth at the injection site, according to the CDC.
Scientists and doctors are learning more about the outbreak day-by-day. At first, only one type of fungus, Aspergillus, was thought to have contaminated the steroid medicine. Over the weekend, the CDC said it had found a second fungus. On Tuesday, the Tennessee Department of Health announced the majority of the cases in that state actually were from Exserohilum, the second type of fungus.
Tennessee Health Commissioner Dr. John Dreyzehner characterized this form of fungal meningitis as an exceptionally rare disease.
Cases so far indicate the anti-fungal medicines help people who are diagnosed and treated early, Dreyzehner said. There is a balance here, though, because they are potentially very toxic medications.
New Jersey officials have said the two Cumberland County patients, who are hospitalized at South Jersey Healthcare Regional Medical Center in Vineland, are recovering.
The CDC also is advising doctors to prescribe antibacterials because they are not yet sure what contaminants may have been in the recalled medicine.
Latham and other doctors are looking to the CDC for better guidance on the use of the anti-fungals, particularly among older people with reduced kidney function, Dreyzehner said.
Experts are sharing their knowledge in conference calls, which South Jersey Healthcare officials have been listening to. And the CDC has a team of scientists gathering outcome data, researching the scant accounts in medical literature about these rare illnesses and comparing notes on the best ways to use the medicine.
Said Schaffner: Lets remember that were in new territory.

Much has been made of Todd Akin's inappropriate comments regarding his opposition to abortion in the case of rape. While the comment was certainly misinformed, should it consume our news the way it has?
Can we take a moment to step away from the hype and look at his comments for what they actually were? Todd Akin is a man who is stridently pro-life. So why are we surprised that those aligned with the abortion industry would want to paint him as a hate monger and a buffoon?
Let's put his remarks in perspective. Of course all rape is a violation against another person, and it deserves the most severe punishment that can be levied against any who even attempt such a despicable act. But is it possible that the congressman had been told by a doctor that in the case of a rape, a woman is less likely to become pregnant than she would be from consensual sex?
Yet, we're more concerned about a congressman making a misinformed comment than we are about a sitting senator casting an uninformed vote. (Ask Sen. Claire McCaskill how much of the health care bill she actually read before she voted for it.) And we allow a party that finds a philandering president's behavior excusable to convince us that Akin's comments are inexcusable.
Even his own party is running past the obvious answer to its dilemma as fast as its members' weak knees can carry them. Since at least half of those whose life is ended in the abortion clinic are female, exactly how is it that opposing abortion is anti-woman!
We're still left with two candidates and two visions. One big government, one small. One passed a budget; one has not. And, yes, one is pro-life, and one favors abortion on demand.

|Defining fallback foods and assessing their importance in primate ecology and evolution.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 19890868 Owner: NLM Status: In-Process
|Physical anthropologists use the term "fallback foods" to denote resources of relatively poor nutritional quality that become particularly important dietary components during periods when preferred foods are scarce. Fallback foods are becoming increasingly invoked as key selective forces that determine masticatory and digestive anatomy, influence grouping and ranging behavior, and underlie fundamental evolutionary processes such as speciation, extinction, and adaptation. In this article, we provide an overview of the concept of fallback foods by discussing definitions of the term and categorizations of types of fallback foods, and by examining the importance of fallback foods for primate ecology and evolution. We begin by comparing two recently published conceptual frameworks for considering the evolutionary significance of fallback foods and propose a way in which these approaches might be integrated. We then consider a series of questions about the importance of fallback foods for primates, including the extent to which fallback foods should be considered a distinct class of food resources, separate from preferred or commonly eaten foods; the link between life history strategy and fallback foods; if fallback foods always limit primate carrying capacity; and whether particular plant growth forms might play especially important roles as fallback resources for primates. We conclude with a brief consideration of links between fallback foods and primate conservation.

CAD diagnosis coding
All -
I am just wondering if anyone has any input on what actually dictates when you use the CAD diagnosis code?
Would you code CAD in the following dictations:
mild luminal irregularities
mild CAD
a certain percentage of stenosis 20%, 30%, etc
I know this is kinda wide open, but I am just trying to get a feel of what others are doing.
Thanks in advance
CAD Coding
I couldn't resist the temptation when it comes to anything concerning CAD, heart, grafts, vascular, valves, etc.
I'm going to copy and paste a section of note that I received a WHILE back that clearly, unequivocally answered any of my concerns at that time. If you can use this, it was a pleasure to share this info. I have shared this with many others. Some of it came from the AHA but I'm not sure of the publications. As follows:
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a chronic ischemic condition where blood flow through the coronary arteries is impaired, most commonly due to atheromatous plaque. CAD is a progressive disorder that is silent for long periods of time then appears suddenly in the form of unstable angina or acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Unstable angina is marked by severe chest pain
with little exertion and can progress into an AMI without immediate treatment. AMI is death to cells of the myocardium after prolonged ischemia.
When coding for CAD, if the patient does not have a history of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), assign code 414.01. If the patient does have a history of a CABG, then assign the appropriate code from the 414.02-414.05 range. Codes 414.06 and 414.07 are used for CAD of a transplanted heart. Note that CAD of a previously bypassed vessel or of a transplanted heart is
not considered a complication so a complication code should not be assigned.
When coding for AMI, two factors must be known: the site or type of AMI and the episode of care for which the AMI pertains. All AMI codes fall under category 410. The fourth digit specifies the site or type of AMI (i.e., anterior wall, non-ST elevation MI, etc.). The fifth digit specifies whether the episode of care is unspecified, initial, or subsequent. The fourth digit of 9, unspecified site, and fifth digit of 0, unspecified episode of care, should never be used for inpatient encounters; query the physician for clarification. Follow the following sequencing guidelines when coding for manner.
CAD and AMI:
•When a patient is admitted for angina which is determined to be due to CAD, the CAD is sequenced first with an additional code for the angina.
•When a patient is admitted for unstable angina and CAD and an AMI occurs after admission, the AMI is sequenced first with the CAD as an additional code. A code is not assigned for the unstable angina since it progressed into an AMI. Note: no code from category 411 is assigned with a code from category 410 unless the physician has documented postmyocardial infarction syndrome, postinfarction angina, or Dressler's syndrome.
•When a patient is admitted for an AMI and CAD, the AMI is sequenced first with an additional code for the CAD.
•When a patient is admitted for impending myocardial infarction and CHF and the AMI occurs after admission, the AMI is sequenced first with appropriate secondary codes for the CHF. CAD may be treated with diet and exercise in addition to medical treatment with medications. However, surgery may be required for more severe cases of CAD. Surgical treatments of CAD include percutaneous angioplasty, percutaneous stenting, or CABG. Coronary angioplasty or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is the dilation of a blocked artery with a balloon. PTCA is reported with the following codes:
•00.66 – PTCA
•00.40-00.43 – identifies the number of vessels treated
•00.44 –vessel bifurcation, if performed (only report one time regardless of number of vessel bifurcations treated)
•36.04 –infusion of platelet inhibitor or other intracoronary artery thrombolytic agent, if performed
•99.10 –infusion of thrombolytic agent such as tissue plasminogen activator (TPA, if performed)
Coronary stenting may also be performed in conjunction with a PTCA. Once the vessel has been dilated with the balloon, the physician will insert a stent to prevent reclosure of the dilated vessel. Percutaneous coronary stenting is reported with the same codes as PTCA in addition to the following codes:
•36.06 or 36.07 – insertion of stent. Code 36.06 is reported for non-drug-eluting stents and 36.07 is reported for drug-eluting stents. Note that drug coated (i.e., heparin coated) stents are reported with code 36.06.
•00.45-00.48 – number of stents Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a more invasive procedure where grafted vessels are used to bypass the coronary artery obstructions. When coding for CABG, use the following codes:
•36.11-36.14 – use the correct code from this range to identify the number of aortocoronary bypass grafts.
•36.15-36.16 – use the correct code from this range to identify the number of internal mammary-coronary artery bypass grafts.
•36.17 – use when an abdominal-coronary artery bypass is performed (i.e., gastric artery)
•36.19 – use when coronary artery bypass is performed with vessels other than coronary, internal mammary, or abdominal.
•39.61 – extracorporeal circulation (i.e., cardiopulmonary bypass), if performed
•00.16 – pressurized treatment of venous bypass graft with pharmaceutical substance, if performed.
May you find this info helpful.
CAD Coding 2
I forgot to mention about the documentation. Less is more sometimes and you probably need to empower the doc about lean documentation skills. I realize that documenting for CAD and blocked valves, arteries etc. can be time consuming but you can help the doc by researching what the Payors require for their documentation and maybe research it online at one of the specialties and see if someone posted some info that you can use.
Good Luck!
One thing i would question is. If the patient has a history of coronary artery disease and is dx'd with CAD, I would not think that is an automatic 414.02 dx. Unless the physician documents which vessel is diseased you shouldnt assumed it is the graft.
