POSTED: 1:30 a.m. HST, Oct 9, 2010
A suspected mo-ped thief was unable to make a quiet getaway Thursday night, thwarted by a loud muffler that led to his capture.
Police said they stopped a 47-year-old man on a mo-ped on Date Street just after midnight because of noise complaints from a nearby business. A check revealed the mo-ped was reported stolen, and the Waianae man was arrested, police said.
Big Island police have charged a 51-year-old Kona man with stabbing a Honaunau man during an argument Tuesday in South Kona.
Mark Knittle was charged with second-degree assault and released after posting $2,000 bail.
Kona patrol officers responded to the stabbing at 6:47 p.m. along Mamalahoa Highway in Hookena. A 34-year-old man reported that he was arguing with a male acquaintance when the man stabbed him. The victim was treated for cuts to his chest and arm at Kona Community Hospital and released.
Coast Guard crews rescued three people after their vessel overturned off Nawiliwili Harbor at about 3 a.m. yesterday.
Search and rescue coordinators from Coast Guard Sector Honolulu received a distress call from the captain of the 25-foot pleasure craft at about 2:30 a.m. Coordinators relayed the information to search and rescue crews on Kauai.
Rescue crews arrived on scene at 3:40 a.m. and found two people in the water near the capsized boat, about one mile south of the harbor. The rescue team picked them up and transferred them to a 31-foot utility boat.
The boat's captain reported there was a third person who had jumped overboard and tried to swim to shore. The third person was found on the breakwater, signaling the rescue crew with his flashlight.
No injuries were reported.

Peyton Manning says two weeks of crisp practices will be enough to have the Colts ready for the regular-season opener. - Michael Groll / Asoociated Press
- Filed Under
It's clear Peyton Manning isn't pleased with how the NFL's decision to reposition the umpire this season has worked thus far.
But while the Indianapolis Colts quarterback is worried the relocation could hamper his ability to adequately run the no-huddle offense, he's more concerned with how the slower mechanics might affect two specific situations.
The inability of the umpire to spot the football and return to his position behind the offensive backfield quickly, Manning believes, could limit a quarterback's ability to quick-snap and: ...

Much like they were in March, the Bengals are in a one-team race for Terrell Owens.
The Bengals have extended an offer to Owens, which is now the only one the receiver has on the table after the Rams decided to back out. Owens and agent Drew Rosenhaus like the Bengals situation and are still negotiating. The team hopes a decision is made in the next 48 hours.
Photos: Terrell Owens through the years
The Bengals report to Georgetown College on Wednesday for the start of training camp and have their first practice on Thursday at 9 a.m.
Said team president Mike Brown on Monday: I would rather have him line up on our side of the ball compared to the other side. Hes a good player. He changes field position. He makes a lot of long plays that win games. Ive seen him do it against us. Id like him to be here and do it against someone else.
Rosenhaus had talks with the team Friday that largely revolved around other players, but there was some talk about Owens. That picked up steam over the weekend.
The Bengals have already done their due diligence with Owens after his visit here March 9-10. Coach Marvin Lewis, the assistant coaches and Brown have always indicated that the visit went well but the team decided to go in another direction by signing Antonio Bryant to a four-year, $28 million deal. However, with questions about Bryants health resurfacing late in organized workouts and minicamp, the thought of bringing back Owens resurfaced.
Also in Owens favor were recommendations by Carson Palmer and former Bengals quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. Palmer has worked out with Owens during the past couple of weeks in Southern California and told Lewis and offensive coordinator Bob Bratkowski that he looked great. Fitzpatrick spoke about what a good teammate Owens was in Buffalo last year.
I think Carsons comments to me, they resonate well, Lewis said. I know when Carson has something important to say that when he calls me and I call back from an unknown number and he answers I know he wants to talk. I know something was important on his mind.
Take our Bengals roster quiz

Six days after saying he didnt want to talk about Owens, Lewis was singing a different tune Monday.
Said Lewis of Owens: We have an opportunity to add a very productive player. He has a focus of what he wants to get done and is in focus with what we want to be.
The bigger matter that the organization continues to weigh is what having Chad Ochocinco, Bryant and Owens on the team does for the development of their younger receivers. They added Jordan Shipley and Dez Briscoe in the draft and already had Andre Caldwell, Quan Cosby and Jerome Simpson.
Figuring that Ochocinco, Bryant, Owens, Shipley and Caldwell can safely claim roster spots, that leaves four players, including free agent pickup Matt Jones, likely fighting for one spot. It also creates a dilemma on special teams since over the past couple years, four of the six receivers have experience in that area. Ochocinco, Bryant and Owens would be factored out of that.
Thats what youre balancing. Someone is going to get stifled. Theres no way around that, said Lewis. Thats what were asking. What is the best thing in 2010 and long range and trying to fit that balance together to make sense.
But there are some who will counter that if it is about bringing the best 80 players to training camp, then theres no question about adding Owens. As one coach noted, you can never have enough weapons.
Brown, who will make the final call on Owens, is not concerned about his past baggage and was surprised when the two met in March.
I met with him personally and privately he is not at all this public image is depicted, Brown said. Hes a pleasant person, a quiet person. I found him engaging and I do trust my eyes on this sort of thing. If he chose to come here he can help our team, and well see how that plays out. It is going to be his decision.
I judge him by what I see. Theres a lot of commentary about people who are in the public eye and some of it is way overboard. Some of it is because people dont know the situation. People can make mistakes it doesnt mean they go on the rest of their lives making mistakes. This is a 36-year old man. Hes been through a lot and hes proven as a player.
Owens will be entering his 15th season and is third in NFL history in career receiving yards (14.951), third in touchdowns (147) and sixth in receptions (1,006). The Bengals would be his fifth team since he entered the league with San Francisco in 1996, but this will be his third team in three seasons. Last year in Buffalo, he had 55 receptions for 829 yards and five touchdowns, which was his worst production in a full season since 1997. He has also been in Philadelphia and Dallas.
Bengals defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer was with Owens for one season in Dallas in 2006 and said he noticed a player who was quiet and practiced hard.
He was on the other side of the ball so I didnt talk to him too much, Zimmer said. Just watching practice he practice hard and just like any other player. I didnt notice him differently.

Watland: I think [healthcare reform] is a great opportunity for nursing to step up and get involved in shaping what this is going to look like, both in acute care settings and also in a community-based environment.
I read somewhere that 32 million newly insured people are going to be in the system with healthcare reform, and if we don't think that's going to change healthcare, we've got to really take that seriously. How [are] we in nursing going help shape [that and] take care of those additional people that are going to be covered and coming forward for healthcare?
I think there's a big opportunity for to have an impact on outcomes. I think about all the new nursing roles that have evolved, with monitoring outcomes, and making sure we've gathered all the data, and doing all of the documentations pieces right.
But the nurse at the bedside, the nurse that's taking care of the patient absolutely needs to be educated beyond their clinical expertise. They need to be educated about this whole process and be familiar with how to retrieve data, how to analyze data, how to use evidence-based practice in nursing care to shape those outcomes and to really at the bedside, understand that.
Because we can't afford to keep just putting more and more layers of people into the healthcare system, monitoring, and tracking data and then having the caregivers be totally separate. I think really expanding the role of the caregiver, the nurse at the bedside, to be able to embrace all of this and be engaged in all of this can really help strengthen their practice and shape the outcome that we're going to get. I think we have a big opportunity to improve care and also optimize our resources.
Davis: One of the critical ways that nurse leadership can really take an important role in this is through what I would consider a redesign of the care at the point of delivery. Really understanding how to utilize our quality, lean, process improvement tools to be very focused on the processes that produce value for patients [and] eliminating unnecessary steps to create a better experience, not only for the patient but also for the care team, and to leverage those tools to build not only new models, but to enhance the teamwork on a particular unit.
I know we have done a lot of work in both our ambulatory settings and our hospitals settings where we have looked at the care model on particular units and really worked to create more effectiveness and efficiency and at the same time, generate better clinical staff focus and patient experience outcomes.
So I see the nurse leaders, the CNOs, taking a really important role. We've done quite a few projects that we are now spreading to really help us diffuse those improvements and sustain those improvements over time. As Judy was saying, it's difficult in these complex environments to sustain improvement. How do we continue to build on the good work and create more value for patients?

Thurston County reports first flu death
Health officials have reported the first flu-related death in Thurston County. A 23-year-old woman has died due to complications from the flu.
"This young woman's death is a sad reminder that the flu must be taken seriously," said Dr. Diana Yu, Health Officer for Thurston County. "We're encouraging unvaccinated people of all ages to talk to their doctor about getting a flu vaccine. It's not too late to get vaccinated."
So far this season, 28 flu-related deaths have occurred in Washington in King, Snohomish and Thurston counties.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that the best way to protect yourself against the flu virus is to get vaccinated. Seniors, pregnant women, children younger than five, people with chronic medical conditions like asthma or heart disease, and people who work in healthcare, senior care, and childcare are all strongly encouraged to get a flu vaccine.
Dr. Yu says you can prevent the spread of the flu and other respiratory illnesses by covering your mouth and nose; coughing or sneezing into your elbow or with a tissue; staying home if you are sick; and washing your hands often with soap and warm water. When hand washing is not possible, Dr. Yu advises using antiseptic hand gels that contain alcohol.

I just ran my first 10k yesterday and I'm feeling sore from my upper body and thighs. I've been drinking lots of water to stay hydrated since I'm still feeling a little lethargic but I was wondering if there was anything else that could help?
Any advice would be great, I'm fairly new to this and will continue to get my body use to running/walking.
Congrats on your first 10K!When I'm aching, I like a nice soak in a hot bath and a nap.Other than that, try to not just sit around too much, some medium paced walking or very light jogging can help loosen things up.
1m - 7:11 (8-28-14) · 5k - 27:01 (1-10-15) · 5m - 45:02 · 10k - 56:24 · 13.1m - 2:13:58 (9-19-15)
There are plentiful ideas out there, whether or not they are effective is debatable. Some like to lie on their backs and place their legs up against the wall. This is suppose to drain the toxins and acid out. I've never tried it. I prefer icing any areas that are especially sore and some easy recovery jogging or even walking.
PR: 5k- 18:46 (09/2015), 12k- 49:25 (05/2015), 13.1- 1:29 (04/2015), 26.2- 3:22 (10/2015)
I've never iced anything. Strange, since I like cold so much. I should try it.
Yeah, I wouldn't ice delayed onset muscle soreness. Just hit the road more.
You raced hard. It's going to hurt for a few days and there's no way to make it not hurt. Just wait it out and you'll be fine in a week. or less.
Short Term Goal - 17:59 5K
Medium Term Goal - 2:54:59 marathon
Long Term Goal - To have been a runner half my life (I started at age 45)
Three days should cure you. Otherwise, recovery jogging is helpful in staving off the stiffness. If you can't face that, some walking is almost as good.
Thanks! Luckily its been a busy day around the office so I've been moving around a lot, limping a little but I'm moving!
Beer, the answer is always beer.
But other than that, soaks and a couple of easy runs or walks will do you good...but beer is a lot easier.
I burp in parking garages to assert my dominance
most def taking that into consideration! Especially with the warm weather!
DOMS will go away in a couple days. Get out and move. Beer just might help. It certainly won't hurt.
For the win!
According to chemistry, alcohol is a solution. Sooo, there is that.
I like compression for DOMS. I seriously think it helps.
DOMS + BEER = pleasant, relaxing reflection on said workout/race
Congrats on your first 10K!!
Foam rolling,... hurts like hell when you're doing it but really helps loosen things up.
If you're new to racing, just beginning the sport or 6.2 miles is approaching or exceeding your mileage PB it wouldn't be uncommon to feel soreness.

Post subject: Mounted Combat
We'll be getting into some mounted combat for the first time soon, and I'm trying to work out how it works in my head and preemptively answer questions that might come up.
Fighting while Riding is handled by using the lower of the two skill dice, and Shooting while Riding is covered by Unstable Platform. I've also gathered that Riding typically requires at least one hand to control the reins. How would riding handless be handled? We've seen knights charging with lance and shield, archers and cowboys firing from horseback, and the like, who guide their horses with their knees.
To expand on this - one of the characters in our game has the One Arm hindrance.
After asking on the official answers forum
, Clint answered that the One Arm penalty (-4 for performing a task that would require two hands) would apply. While this is an acceptable and FFF answer for this situation, something still doesn't feel quite right. I think it comes down to a character's ability to guide the mount with their knees; would this be an Edge-worthy thing?

Hmm that's new to me, too. Presumably the penalty wouldn't apply to your actual attack, but it
make it more difficult to remain mounted if you or your horse were Shaken or wounded.
If you want an Edge for it, maybe you could model it on Oversized Weapon Master, as that negates the -4 penalty for using a two-handed weapon in one hand. That would make it a Seasoned Edge, requiring Riding d8+.

Not worth an Edge. More likely something any competent rider could do, as evidenced throughout history. Ignore the One Arm ruling if a character has Riding d6 would be a simple solution.

Depends upon the setting.
In some settings, such ability is worthy of an edge; this is especially true in settings without stirrups. But any setting where you want knee-control to be something that requires focused training would be appropriate.
In other settings that is a fairly common ability, especially for military horsemanship (d6+ in Fighting and Riding). When learning to fight from horseback, or use a lariat or pretty much any other skill that really requires two hands, learning to use your knees to guide your mount (and stay mounted) is very common. I can see not applying a penalty (or a reduced penalty, completely removed by a setting edge) to Riding checks to stay mounted.
It is worth noting when in the rules you have to make Riding rolls. Specifically if the rider or mount suffers a Shaken or worse damage condition. Otherwise, Riding is only rolled as often as Agility to move around the battlefield (i.e. when terrain and circumstances make walking or running potentially disastrous).
Riding rolls should be rare, except in a cavalry battle.

Seems to me that you can steer a horse with your knees, as long as you don't have to roll. but if you need a riding roll, and your hands are full of sword and shield or whatever, you are kind of hosed.

Thanks, everyone; this has been as helpful as always.
I hadn't considered what actually requires Riding rolls to be made. We'll keep it FFF and only have these potential penalties come up when Riding rolls actually need to be made, rather than making excuses for unnecessary rolling.

It does still mean that if a rider (or their mount) is Shaken while fighting with both hands, they're almost always going to be dismounted by the blow. A -4 penalty in Savage Worlds is a huge deal (it's the same penalty as fighting in pitch darkness). So those traditional movie scenes where someone rides away slumped over their horse with an arrow in their back will be very rare.
An Extra who's a competent cavalryman (Riding d8) will have an 87.5% of falling off his horse if you cause him or his mount to become Shaken, and if his horse is moving at the time he'll suffer an additional 2d6 damage (an average of 8.4 damage) from the fall, which likely means a second Shaken result, and therefore incapacitation.
What you might consider is being a bit more flexible about the definition of having a hand free. Perhaps if the character is holding two weapons they can choose to drop one in order to negate the penalty (e.g, they drop their sword as they desperately grab the reins), while if they're using a two-handed weapon (such as a bow) they can choose to hold on with the other hand, effectively causing the weapon to become unreadied (so they'd need to spend an action readying it before they could attack again).
Or you could build the option into the roll itself: instead of suffering a -4 penalty to the Riding roll, the character automatically drops a weapon (or unreadies a two-handed weapon)
they get a raise on the roll.
I'm assuming there would be further penalties if you're riding bareback (-2? So an unskilled rider using both hands would be rolling d4-8?!), but perhaps a military saddle could give you a +1 bonus to your Riding rolls when trying to avoid falling off, in the same way that a survival knife (SWD) gives +1 to Survival rolls, tailored clothing (FC) gives +1 to certain Charisma rolls, camouflage fatigues (NE) give +1 to Stealth rolls, etc.

Echoing Zadmar, in some games there are normal saddles, and military saddles which give a bonus
I could see saying that a military / knight's saddle gives +2 to riding to remain mounted.
or come up with a "Mounted Ace" edge, ("Born in the Saddle"?) that gives a general riding bonus

Whether a rider can control a horse with his knees has as much to do with the horse as the rider. If a horse hasn't been trained to respond the way you want, no amount of kneeing it in the ribs will make it turn. All you'll do is make it angry and frustrated. With training, OTOH, the horse will practically read your mind. This is a case where I'd emphasize the horse's quality and history, and not just assume that every horse is an identical cipher.

I would assume that, among other things, the "guide with you knees while you fight from horseback" is at least partially covered by using the Riding die to limit your Fighting die. But I'm with the "keep it simple" crowd: anybody that expects to fight from a horse (by taking ranks in both Fighting and Riding) would train in guiding a horse with their knees. This should be covered under common knowledge at the very least (though it might not be common in some settings, as has been mentioned). Unless you want mounted combat to be full of people falling off their horses at the slightest provocation, just let those with an actual Riding die guide with their knees. Keep it simple.

+1 to keeping it simple.
It is perfectly fine to guide your horse with your knees - in fact legs are the primary method for controlling a horse. Reins, bit, and bridle are just there to give a little more finesse in your control - you dont NEED them.
Also, saddles...
Saddles are there to reduce fatigue (riding bareback is VERY tiring) and support better balance.
If you want to put a
detail into the mounted side of things you could provide different saddles:
basic saddle:
+1 to checks to avoid fatigue, +1 to checks to avoid falling off.
jumping saddle:
+2 to checks to avoid falling off.
travel saddle:
+2 to checks to avoid fatigue.
You can call them names specific to your campaign.
You can add these bonuses to riding checks. For example, when in a chase, the saddle could bonus the riding roll to avoid obstacles such as hedges, creeks, etc.

While I am by no means an expert, I work with horses and have done a fair amount of work with horse training. In virtually any style of training, the essential foundation is teaching the horse to give to pressure. This is necessary not just for riding the horse but for pretty much all aspects of handling the horse. The result of this is that you can use your legs to control any horse that isn't wild.
That said, it takes training of both the rider and the horse to be able to perform intricate maneuvers both with and without the reins. Take a look at dressage or reining competitions to see just how intricate a good horse and rider can get.

Mechanisms of motivational interviewing in health promotion: a Bayesian mediation analysis
1 Department of Psychology, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ, 85287-1104, USA
2 Division of Health Promotion and Sports Medicine; Department of Medicine, Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, 97239-3098, USA
International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity 2012, 9:69 doi:10.1186/1479-5868-9-69Published: 8 June 2012
Counselor behaviors that mediate the efficacy of motivational interviewing (MI) are not well understood, especially when applied to health behavior promotion. We hypothesized that client change talk mediates the relationship between counselor variables and subsequent client behavior change.
Purposeful sampling identified individuals from a prospective randomized worksite trial using an MI intervention to promote firefighters' healthy diet and regular exercise that increased dietary intake of fruits and vegetables (n = 21) or did not increase intake of fruits and vegetables (n = 22). MI interactions were coded using the Motivational Interviewing Skill Code (MISC 2.1) to categorize counselor and firefighter verbal utterances. Both Bayesian and frequentist mediation analyses were used to investigate whether client change talk mediated the relationship between counselor skills and behavior change.
Counselors' global spirit, empathy, and direction and MI-consistent behavioral counts (e.g., reflections, open questions, affirmations, emphasize control) significantly correlated with firefighters' total client change talk utterances (rs = 0.42, 0.40, 0.30, and 0.61, respectively), which correlated significantly with their fruit and vegetable intake increase (r = 0.33). Both Bayesian and frequentist mediation analyses demonstrated that findings were consistent with hypotheses, such that total client change talk mediated the relationship between counselor's skills—MI-consistent behaviors [Bayesian mediated effect: αβ = .06 (.03), 95% CI = .02, .12] and MI spirit [Bayesian mediated effect: αβ = .06 (.03), 95% CI = .01, .13]—and increased fruit and vegetable consumption.
Motivational interviewing is a resource- and time-intensive intervention, and is currently being applied in many arenas. Previous research has identified the importance of counselor behaviors and client change talk in the treatment of substance use disorders. Our results indicate that similar mechanisms may underlie the effects of MI for dietary change. These results inform MI training and application by identifying those processes critical for MI success in health promotion domains.

After losing money from cellphones for failing to catch up with global rivals in offering attractive smartphone lineups, LG Electronics Co. is attempting a comeback with a new 4G (fourth-generation) smartphone.
Called "Revolution," LG's latest phone is powered by Google's Android operating system, and runs on the long-term evolution or LTE network. LTE is a 4G technology that's faster than 3G and allows video conferencing.
The company plans to offer the phone sometime in the first half of this year in the U.S. through Verizon Wireless. LG, the world's third-largest cellphone maker by shipments behind Nokia Corp. and Samsung Electronics Co., unveiled the new phone at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week.
"LG's Revolution has faster processing speed so users can download high-capacity, high definition video clips even while traveling," the company said.
LG hasn't been able to keep up pace with the boom in the smartphone market and has struggled to come up with models that can effectively compete with Apple Inc.'s iPhone. As a result, its handset business saw a 32% slump in third-quarter sales and posted its worst ever quarterly loss in the three months ended Sept. 30 of $271 million.
It's hoping for a rebound with the new smartphone. The device comes with a 4.3-inch liquid crystal display screen, a five-megapixel camera, and enables face-to-face video calling.

Cole Porter wrote iconic songs "You're the Top," "Anything Goes" and "I Get a Kick Out of You." / File photo
Cole Porter sings Youre the Top:
Today marks the conclusion of a series that looks at the top 25 musicians, ranked in order, in Indiana history. The list includes representatives of blues, pop, country, hip-hop, R&B, rock, classical, jazz, Broadway and punk rock styles. The countdowns final two entries are being revealed in tandem.
2. Cole Porter
Peerless in style, sophistication and suggestive phrasing, Cole Porter ranks among the greatest songwriters of the 20th century.
Born in Peru, Ind. in 1891, Porter composed music and lyrics for Broadway shows across 39 years -- highlighted by "Paris" (1928), "Anything Goes" (1934) and "Kiss Me, Kate" (1948).
Porter's songs, remarkably durable across generations, feature lyrics that are "urbane or witty" paired to melodies boasting a "sinuous, brooding quality," as The Associated Press reported in his 1964 obituary.
"You're the Top," "I Get a Kick Out of You," "Love for Sale," "Night and Day," "Begin the Beguine," "I've Got You Under My Skin," "Let's Do It (Let's Fall in Love)," "You'd Be So Nice to Come Home To" and "It's De-Lovely" rank among Porter's immortal tunes.
His maternal grandfather, J.O. Cole, amassed a fortune by selling supplies to miners during the California Gold Rush. He returned to Indiana to oversee Westleigh, the 750-acre estate in Miami County where Cole Porter grew up.
J.O. envisioned a life in business for his grandson, but Porter wrote his first hit while attending Yale University. Collegiate fight song "Bulldog" gave way to an entertainment empire.
In the 1920s and '30s, Porter and his wife -- Louisville, Ky., native Linda Lee -- lived a glamorous existence in Paris and Venice. "For a party in Venice, where he rented the Palazzo Rezzonico for $4,000 a month, he hired 50 gondoliers to act as footmen and had a troupe of high-rope walkers perform in a blaze of lights," the AP reported.
A horse-riding accident in 1937 curtailed the high life for Porter. His legs were crushed and, after years of unsuccessful treatments, his right leg was amputated in 1958. The composer plunged into despair and never wrote another song.
Cary Grant portrayed Porter in 1946 biopic "Night and Day," while Kevin Kline handled the role in 2004's "De-Lovely."
In a 1991 Indianapolis Star interview, Porter's cousin, James Cole, said the composer frequently returned to Peru to visit relatives and entertain at Westleigh.
"Cole was a wonderful host, but more of a listener than a talker," he said. "When he did speak, though, he always was clever and witty."
In 2012, the Great American Songbook Hall of Fame at Carmel's Center for the Performing Arts made Porter an inaugural inductee in its "Legend" category. The Indianapolis-based American Pianists Association selects a Cole Porter Fellow in Jazz every four years, and the Indiana History Center, 450 W. Ohio St., is home to the Cole Porter Room.
Essential songs: Anything Goes, Youre the Top, I Get a Kick Out of You (See the accompanying Spotify playlist).
He said it: "I've been accused most of my life of being remote. But that's not so. I've been working. It's awful to tell people things like that. I've done lots of work at dinner, sitting between two bores. I can feign listening beautifully and work. That's the reason I like to go out. I have no hours. I can work anywhere. I work very well when I'm shaving or when I'm in a taxi, Porter told The New York Times in 1955.
About the series: The list of 25 top Hoosier musicians includes subjective selections by Indianapolis Star reporter David Lindquist. For this list, a Hoosier is defined as someone who helped shape the cultural identity of Indiana or someone whose identity was shaped by the state.

Not everyone likes your Auntie Bess' fruitcake, but even your curmudgeonly cousins know that the raisin-speckled brick means one thing — it's the holidays. People echo this same sentiment about music this time of year: yes, you love to hate it, but it's just not the same without Mariah Carey chirping from the mall, car stereo, and family get-together that all she wants for Christmas is you.
With that in mind, we're pleased to present a playlist of Fruitcake Music — all the songs you find yourself craving despite yourself, during the holiday season. Including Celine Dion, Gene Autry, Paul McCartney and more, here's wishing you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays — may you find at least a few sweet maraschino cherries tucked between those pesky currants. Dig in.
What's a holiday-tinged song you love to hate?

If you go
The commission will take up medical flights today at 1:30 p.m. in its chambers, 2120 Main St., Fort Myers. There is no public comment.
Lee County Commission chambers
View Lee County Commission chambers in a larger map
The Lee County Commission today could either move along plans to privatize emergency medical flights or put the countys own helicopters back in the air.
Reinstating the government-run program, Medstar, could be problematic, as county officials would have to seek the Federal Aviation Administrations approval after violating the agencys rules for nearly a year, acting Public Safety Director Holly Schwartz said.
Conversely, if the commission decides to go forward with a model to privatize rescue helicopters, they would do so without any idea how much the companies charge patients.
The company county staff calls the best option, Aeromed, wont disclose the dollar amount they bill patients for emergency service.
In August, county officials called in Aeromed to temporarily replace Medstar. Theyve been flying patients for Lee County Emergency Medical Services since.
That was not part of the information that was requested of us, Aeromed and Tampa General Hospital spokesman John Dunn said. Again, we will discuss that if we get selected.
Lee County charged an $8,500 liftoff fee and $90 per mile. Private companies can charge nearly double that amount and insurance companies might not cover all the fees.
The county also hasnt evaluated how many requests for flights Aeromed has turned down the past two months. It took paramedics 53 minutes to get a 19-year-old to the hospital in September, after the companys helicopter had a mechanical failure. County officials have not responded to a request for information about other responses.
They dont want us to know the less than flattering aspects, Commissioner Brian Bigelow said. I think that the fix is in.
Schwartz said county officials may negotiate patient fees and evaluate services, if they move forward with privatization.
Bigelow said he wont even entertain private offers until county-owned helicopters are back in the air.
Mismanagement led to the collapse of the countys program and its shutdown Aug. 21, according to the draft version of a Clerk of Court audit.
County officials had failed to meet federal safety mandates for nearly a year. They also improperly billed patients for about $3.3 million in flights violating rules and triggering an investigation by the Federal Aviation Administration.
Former County Manager Karen Hawes resigned with a $250,000 payout last week, after Commissioner Frank Mann threatened to have her terminated for Medstar mishandling.
While commissioners wont select a company to contract at todays meeting, they have been asked to choose a model.
Aeromed and another company, Med-Trans, propose performing medical flights at no cost to taxpayers. Under their plans, the companies would provide services and turn a profit from patients and insurance companies.
Mann said privatization could help the county close its annual budget shortfall of about $30 million. Medstars operating costs amount to about $5 million a year, according to county documents.
Im excited about the possibility of going out on the street and reviewing and entertaining proposals that weve never had before, Mann said. I hope we have a majority that will support it.
Two other companies, Metro Aviation and Keystone Med-Flight, have proposed different models that afford public officials greater control of the service.
Under their plans, the county would pay fees to a flight service the dollar amount has not been calculated and the county would then try to collect money from patients.
Chris Hansen, the countys former deputy public safety director who officials brought in to consult after Medstars shutdown, said all fees and charges can be determined once the commission picks a plan.
Hansen, who also sits on Lee Memorial Hospitals board of directors, said the Med-Trans offer calls for the county to supply paramedics to the company, allowing public officials greater oversight of the emergency service.
The county has spent money on training its flight paramedics. Pilots the county let go after the programs shutdown also had training at countys expense.
In 2010 the county spent another $5 million on a new headquarters for Medstar and buying a used helicopter.
That helicopter, however, will have to be sold. The 2002 Bell 430 is expensive to fly and maintain, according to the private companies that want to provide the service, but arent willing to operate the countys primary helicopter.
Republican Party candidate for Commission District 2 Cecil Pendergrass said he would rather restart the countys service, because saving lives instead of a companys profits should be the concern of an emergency medical service.
I just think we need some management, Pendergrass said. My concern with public service is to make sure the citizens are served and at reasonable fee.
A former FAA attorney turned defense attorney, David Hernandez, will be on hand Monday to discuss the countys problems with the FAA. County officials hired him after revelations about improper billings were exposed.
Hernandez urged the FAA to forgo holding county officials legally accountable, because the improper billings were an isolated mistake and the money will be returned, in a letter he sent federal regulators.
(Lee County) fully understands the seriousness of this matter, and this incident was certainly a learning experience that will deter future incidents, Hernandez wrote in the Oct. 15 letter.

Should You Forgo A Halloween Costume If You're A Dude?
Berlinger presents his case with one simple question: "When was the last time you saw a grown man look respectable in a costume?" Okay, we have to agree with him here (we're looking at you, Iron Man), but isn't that the fun part about Halloween? No offense, but women don't exactly look, um, "respectable" dressed up like a witch that rolled out of a strip club either, so we say both genders are pretty equal when it comes to looking a little bit silly — and isn't that the point?
So, should you forgo that costume if you're a man? Here's a hint, gents: We've seen plenty of sexy vampires in our day, so you be the judge. (Esquire)

LAME 3.96 FINAL vs. 3.90.3 Test, Test/Result Thread
LAME 3.96 FINAL vs. 3.90.3 Test, Test/Result Thread

This is stolen from here mostly, since only few things have changed...
The purpose of this thread is to (finally) test LAME 3.96 throughly enough to make it the new recommended LAME version and enhance communication between LAME developers and the HA.org community. The recent confusion about the different LAME versions and compiles (-Qrcd trouble etc.) have led to the decision that moving along with LAME development has been postponed for long enough and LAME 3.90.X can hopefully be declared dead very soon.
Please test as many samples as possible according to the following guidelines and post any results here.
1. Use the following LAME compiles (last updated on 2004/04/13):
lame3.96 final
2. The focus of the test should be --alt-preset/--preset standard, since it will allow us to make conclusions regarding the overall performance of the 'code level tweaked' VBR presets. Other VBR/ABR/CBR presets are interesting too, but not as important. If problems with --alt preset standard are detected feel free to compare extreme and insane too. Test the following combinations please:
(~256kbps) 3.96 --preset extreme vs. 3.90.3 --alt-preset extreme
(~210kbps) 3.96 --preset standard vs. 3.90.3 --alt-preset standard
(~160kbps) 3.96 -V 4 vs. 3.96 --preset 160 vs. 3.90.3 --alt-preset 160*
(~128kbps) 3.96 -V 5 vs. 3.96 --preset 128 vs. 3.90.3 --alt-preset 128*
(320kbps) 3.96 --preset insane vs. 3.90.3 --alt-preset insane
3.96 --preset cbr <bitrate> vs. 3.90.3 --alt-preset cbr <bitrate>
If you want, you can additionally test VBR/ABR vs. CBR at comparable bitrates
3. You may use any sample you want, as long as you upload a losslessly compressed version of that (or provide a working link), so others can verify your results. The upload thead is here. Using samples that have been used for testing 3.96beta is a good idea to show progress/regressions.
4. Your test results have to include the following:
Since ABR presets decrease gain as workarround against audible clipping on decoding of loud tracks, please use replaygain (trackgain) for decoding to .wav / ABXing, ideally using foobar2000 (apply to the original as well to get matching volume, of course!). On quiet tracks --scale 1 can be added after --(alt-)preset <bitrate> on encoding alternatively. Details see here
There won't be a separate discussion thread for now. To make it easy to find posts containing results, please start such posts (only!) with "RESULT". Results matching the requirements that have been posted elsewhere will be added to the "Results" post.
Edit 1 [2004/04/13]: typo fixed (3.96b2 -> 3.96), thanks to Lyx
Edit 2 [2004[04[14]: Replaygain/--scale related comment added. (-> "*")

Tested settings:
Lame 3.90.2 --alt-preset 128 --scale 1
Lame 3.96 --preset 128 --scale 1
Lame 3.96 -V 5
Layla is a strange case, 3.96 abr has a metallic artifact in the first two seconds. Preecho in all the three but (of course) well handled with VBR encoded sample.
3.90.2 : 3.0
3.96abr: 2.5
LisztBMinor is a low volume sample and VBR is not the best anymore. With all the three samples there are problems with background noise and ringing/chirping. VBR can offer better preecho handling but maybe with such samples is nothing special.
3.90.2 : 3.0
3.96abr: 2.1
Blackwater is very indicative for me. The well known chirping/ringing artifact, even if reduced with the new 3.96 are still present in the two 3.96 encodings, 3.90.2 doesn't ring at all. Again, preecho is better with -V 5.
3.90.2 : 3.2
3.96abr: 2.8
With Waiting critical sample VBR is advantaged. 3.96 --ap 128 manifested a bad ringing in some parts.
3.90.2 : 2.2
3.96abr: 1.5
ABC/HR and ABX results here: http://xoomer.virgilio.it/fofobella/396_1.zip
However 3.96 is not always worse than 3.90.2: with some samples the progress is real. It's a pity for this slight ringing artifact that penalize 3.96 too much for me.
I plan to complete all the 12 samples during this weekend
@tigre: In my previous post i linked a test done with lamex9 slightly in favour of 3.96. I cheched 3.96 vs lamex9 --p 128 --sfscale and they produce the same file, i think that this test could be added to the results even if greyed out.

Slot machines could come to Palm Beach Kennel Club under bill backed by local lawmakers
BOCA RATON, Fla. — A proposal to expand gambling by allowing slot machines at the Palm Beach Kennel Club cleared an early hurdle Tuesday when Palm Beach County's legislative delegation endorsed a bill calling for a voter referendum on the matter.
If the full legislature passes the bill next year, county voters would have the final say on whether to allow slots at the dog track near Palm Beach International Airport west of West Palm Beach.
Seven pari-mutuel facilities in Broward and Miami-Dade counties already have voter-approved slots. Voters in those counties approved slot machines after an amendment to the Florida constitution allowed the two counties to conduct referendums.
But a recent appellate court ruling involving Hialeah Racetrack found that the legislature has the authority to allow slot machines at pari-mutuels without a constitutional amendment. Brian Ballard, a lobbyist for the Palm Beach Kennel Club, said the decision to push for the Palm Beach County slots bill was made after that decision by the state's 1st District Court of Appeal.
That decision is being appealed to the Florida Supreme Court, but the sponsor of the bill calling for a Palm Beach County slots referendum, state Rep. Joseph Abruzzo, D-Wellington, said he's confident the appellate ruling will stand.
Local bills that are backed by county delegations usually win easy approval in the legislature. But gambling is often a hot-button issue, and the legislature in 2012 will also be considering a bill to allow three Las Vegas-style "destination resort" casinos in Broward and Miami-Dade counties.
House Speaker Dean Cannon, R-Winter Garden, has expressed skepticism about the destination resort bill, saying he remains "philosophically opposed to the expansion of gaming in the state," but he has not taken a position on Abruzzo's bill.
While Abruzzo's bill is separate from the destination casinos bill, he said his long-term goal is for Palm Beach County to be included with Broward and Miami-Dade as an approved site for casinos. Voter approval of slot machines at the dog track would put Palm Beach County in a "posture" for casinos, Abruzzo said.
Local lawmakers approved Abruzzo's bill on a 9-1 vote with state Rep. Mark Pafford, D-West Palm Beach, voting no. Two other lawmakers were not present for the vote.
Pafford noted that the kennel club is near the Westgate Community Redevelopment Agency, which Pafford says has "a tremendous amount of challenges...The argument can be made that the slot machines will enhance that CRA and that certainly could be true, but I prefer to be cautious."
The kennel club's president is state Rep. Pat Rooney Jr., R-Palm Beach Gardens. Rooney did not attend Tuesday's meeting because of a scheduling conflict. But he said that if he had attended he would not have participated in the slots discussion or voted on Abruzzo's bill because it would directly affect his business.
The sponsor of the destination resort bill is state Sen. Ellyn Bogdanoff, R-Fort Lauderdale, who also chairs the county delegation. Bogdanoff left Tuesday's meeting before the vote on Abruzzo's bill, but said in an interview beforehand that she was opposed to it.
Bogdanoff said she does not favor expanding gambling and her destination casino bill is an attempt to "harness and kind of control gaming from a public-policy standpoint at the state level and decide the direction."
Bogdanoff said allowing slots at the dog track would continue "the haphazard, hodgepodge approach that we've had to gaming."
Abruzzo said allowing slot machines at the Kennel Club would boost state tax collections by at least $25 million and bring about $2 million in additional tax revenue to Palm Beach County.
If the legislature and county voters approve, Abruzzo's bill would allow slot machines beginning in July 2015. That's when an exclusive gambling agreement between the state and the Seminole Tribe expires. The tribe is paying the state $250 million a year to be the only operator of slot machines aside from the seven pari-mutuels in Broward and Miami-Dade.

Ok, gonna try to explain this, for me and for you:
I needed to strip apart a strap number like U-22-29-5J5-0000.20 and pass it to the property appraiser's site like: 29225J5000020U
Now how do you do that? You have to use Regular Expression Replace, so pattern the above like this:
Say what? huh? Let's break it apart. The above regex is the "pattern" to look for, so we are matching in the first () i.e. ([0-9a-zA-Z]{1}) all numbers and letters. Note: each character in the orginal strap is represented by "something" in parentheses ()
This first set ([0-9a-zA-Z]{1}) is the "U" notice the [ ] then the { } we have a {1} to represent only one character and what's inside the [ ] is normal regex matching for numbers and letters. Then the next character ( a dash - ) is represented like ([\w-]{1}) (The \w is match word characters like dashes or periods, in our case toward the end I use ([\w.]{1}) to represent the period toward the end of the strap string.
So if you follow the above "pattern" it will match the orginal strap. Now we do this so we can replace, move stuff around, each section or what is in the parentheses is a unit, or in our instance, there are 11 section patterns, does this make sense? ([0-9a-zA-Z]{1}) is 1 and ([\w-]{1}) is another (2), ([0-9a-zA-Z]{2}) is 3 etc, etc,
So our "replace" filter is represented by a $ then the "section" number, so in our case since we need U-22-29-5J5-0000.20 to look like 29225J5000020U, we need the 5th section first: $5, then we need the "22" which is the 3rd $3 and so forth until we get this: $5$3$7$9$11$1
Broken down:
- = 2
22 = 3
- = 4
29 = 5
- = 6
- = 8
0000 = 9
. = 10
20 = 11
Now we can use this is a RegEx.Replace
This example is VB.NET but you could do it for whatever supports RegEx.Replace...
Dim strP as String = "([0-9a-zA-Z]{1})([\w-]{1})([0-9a-zA-Z]{2})([\w-]{1})([0-9a-zA-Z]{2})([\w-]{1})([0-9a-zA-Z]{3})([\w-]{1})([0-9a-zA-Z]{4})([\w.]{1})([0-9a-zA-Z]{2})"
Dim strR as string = "$5$3$7$9$11$1"
Dim mynewstrap = RegEx.Replace("U-22-29-5J5-0000.20",strP,strR)
The variable mynewstrap now = 29225J5000020U
Alternatively if you needed the "new" strap to be 29/225J50000/20U (notice the forward slashes) how would you do that?
Dim strR as string = "$5/$3$7$9/$11$1". Hope this helps, you can really do a lot with this stuff, mix and match etc, like the 5J5 for instance, that "section" ([0-9a-zA-Z]{3}) could be "broken" up if you needed the J in the front, so that section would then become ([0-9a-zA-Z]{1})([0-9a-zA-Z]{1})([0-9a-zA-Z]{1}) and the $numbers would be:
5 = $7
5 = $9
and the rest of the sections would now have different numbers
- = $10
0000 = $11
. = $12
20 = $13
Then if you needed this U-22-29-5J5-0000.20 to look like this J292255000020U, then the strR would look like this:
Hopefully this all makes sense to me the next time I need it!!!

|Use of a neural network as a predictive instrument for length of stay in the intensive care unit following cardiac surgery.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 1482955 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|A patient's intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay following cardiac surgery is an important issue in Canada, where cardiovascular intensive care resources are limited and waiting lists for cardiac surgery exist. A predictive instrument for ICU length of stay could lead to improved utilization of existing ICU and operating room resources through better scheduling of patients and staff. We trained a neural network with a database of 713 patients and 15 input variables to predict patients who would have a prolonged ICU length of stay, which we defined as a stay greater than 2 days. In an independent test set of 696 patients, the network was able to stratify patients into three risk groups for prolonged stay (low, intermediate, and high), corresponding to frequencies of prolonged stay of 16.3%, 35.3%, and 60.8% respectively. The performance of the network was also evaluated by calculating the area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve in the training set, 0.7094 (SE 0.0224), and in the test set, 0.6960 (SE 0.0227). We believe the trained network would be a useful predictive instrument for optimizing the scheduling of cardiac surgery patients in times of limited ICU resources. Neural networks are a new alternative method for developing predictive instruments that offer both advantages and disadvantages when compared to other more widely used statistical techniques.

Story One: Five children abused from birth: The Police in York, Pennsylvania, found five children hidden in the home by their parents - no immunizations, no birth certificates, no education, living outside of society, hidden from the world in a squalid row house with no heat, electricity or running water. The key sentence to the article: 'York County Children and Youth Services became aware of the family through anonymous tips in 2003 and again in 2007, but police said [Sinhue] Johnson [the children's father] refused to cooperate with caseworkers.' (hat tip Marcus Wilder)
Police in this south-central Pennsylvania city are still piecing together how the (parents of five children — ranging in age from 2 to 13 — managed to conceal them for so many years. And why.
"I don't know what would possess them at all," said detective Dana Ward Jr., who tracked down the children after a child welfare agency received an anonymous tip about the clandestine family.
Ward charged Louann Bowers, 33, and Sinhue Johnson, 45, with five felony counts of child endangerment. They are scheduled to be in court Friday, though Bowers' lawyer said she will waive her right to an arraignment. Both are locked up in York County Prison. (Star Tribune)
(Lovely couple, aren't they?) The next sentence in the story begins the excuses for the parents. Just as we have people who excuse terrorists calling them poor misled boys, the abusive mother is given sympathy....
Bowers ran away from "a very chaotic household" when she was 16 and "didn't want to be found," attorney Ronald Gross said.
"I think, unfortunately, Mom's desire to not be found by her family impacted the children's growth," he said. "She realizes now, `I should have done it differently.'" (continue)
Story Two: Grandmother kills granddaughter: In Fairfax, Virginia, a grandmother tosses her 2-1/2 year-old granddaughter, Angelyn Ogdoc, several stories down to her death. (hat tip R.J. Godlewski)
Carmela Dela Rosa, 50, of Fairfax was arrested and charged Tuesday with murder, said prosecutor Ian Rodway, the chief deputy Commonwealth's attorney.
The child, Angelyn Ogdoc, died in a hospital after plunging to the pavement Monday night. She fell from a walkway linking the mall's third floor to the parking garage's sixth floor at Tysons Corner Center in Fairfax, a Washington suburb in Virginia.
Investigators believe Dela Rosa threw the child over a railing but do not yet know why, Fairfax County police spokeswoman Tawny Wright said. (AP)
Story Three: Three young boys probably dead: John Skelton, 39, father of three young brothers, 5-year-old Tanner, 7-year-old Alexander, and 9-year-old Andrew, who have been missing since Thanksgiving was charged with their kidnapping on Tuesday, hours after police said it's unlikely the boys will be found alive.
Meet the parents Tanya and John Skelton: Tanya Skelton was awarded custody after filing for divorce on Sept. 13, 2010. The boys had been with their father as part of court-ordered visitation. According to Fox News the mother had recently been incarcerated for some type of sexual contact with a minor boy.
... the boys' mother, Tanya Skelton is a registered sex offender.
WLNS reports that state records indicate that Tanya, 44, pleaded guilty to fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct in 1998 for having sex with a 14-year-old boy. The boy worked for Tanya at rental properties, according to the report. (The Examiner)
John Skelton is now in a medical facility in Lucas County, Ohio receiving treatment for "mental health issues" after telling police he tried to hang himself. He first told police that he gave his children to a woman, Joann Taylor, that he said he had met online. He later told police he put the boys out on the side of the road somewhere.
So three sweet little boys have a crazy suicidal loon for a father and a registered sex offender who likes sex with little boys for a mother are at best missing somewhere and at worst are most likely dead.

The frozen Indian cuisine brand, Tandoor Chef, announced that they will be expanding their recently launched mobile wine pairing web application. Originally launched in March of this year, the iPhone or Android phone mobile web application was designed to help consumers pair wine with traditional Indian cuisine, including Tandoor Chef's entrée and appetizers. It will now include an array of beers in the list of pairings.
"We saw a great response to the wine pairing application back in March, it made it easy for consumers to know exactly what would enhance their Indian cuisine choices," says Mike Ryan, vice president of sales and marketing. "However, not all consumers are wine drinkers. For many Indian cuisine fans, a beer is preferred over a glass of wine, we knew we wanted to cater to these consumers as well."
The upgraded Tandoor Chef Wine Pairing Web App breaks down beer options into eight different sub categories and gives consumer the perfect dish to pair with that specific type of beer.
"A strong lager such as a German Bock pairs best with Chicken Samosa and a light ale compliments Vegetable Pad Thai," Ryan says. "Beer lovers will now realize that a certain beer can make all the difference in the flavors of a specific Indian dish."
The upgraded mobile web app will continue with the original dual functionality helping users find their desired pairings. Options are available to choose the Tandoor Chef cuisine or the wine or beer you have at home. Once chosen, clicking on the appropriate link will bring the user to a new page displaying the best match. Visit TCPairing.com to test the app and create a match.
