"I am grateful that CMS proposes to allow hospitals accepting patients with stroke-in-evolution who receive tPA at an outside facility to have code V45.88, in essence to count as a CC if a CC is not otherwise documented," Kennedy says.
CMS proposes reassigning the following diagnosis codes from MS-DRG 794 to MS-DRG 795:
In addition, all of the diagnosis codes currently assigned to MS-DRG 794 would be added to the "only secondary diagnosis" list for MS-DRG 795.
Discharge status codes
CMS proposes to add new patient discharge status code 69 (discharged/transferred to a designated disaster alternative care site) for MS-DRGs 280 (acute myocardial infarction discharged alive with MCC), 281 (acute myocardial infarction discharged alive with CC), and 282 (acute myocardial infarction discharged alive without CC/MCC) to identify patients who are discharged or transferred to an alternative site that will provide basic patient care during a disaster response.
CMS also proposes added 15 new discharge status codes for MS-DRGs 280, 281, and 282 to identify patients who are discharged with a planned acute care hospital inpatient readmission.
"I find it interesting that CMS is proposing new discharge codes only for MS-DRGs 280-282 to identify scheduled readmissions," Kennedy said. "If implemented, this means that provider and case management documentation must be explicit as to assist the coder or HIM abstractor in assigning these discharge statuses. Why CMS does not offer this for other conditions or treatments, such as renal or liver transplantation, perplexes me."
Comment on the rule
CMS will accept comments on the proposed rule until June 25 and will respond to comments in the final rule to be published by August 1. The proposed rule will be published in the May 10 Federal Register. Comments may submit comments electronically, via first-class or express mail, or via hand delivery.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

Don't get me wrong, the Mets won and I'm very happy that they won, but that still doesn't hide the fact that there are some very glaring problems with this team.
If it wasn't for the brilliant pitching of Johan Santana, this team may not have won this game. We're not talking about losing to the red hot Padres or Cardinals, were talking about the worst team in the entire league. The Mets squeaked by with a one run win despite having 18 scoring opportunities.
The Mets positional players should be thanking Livan Hernandez for getting bombed on Thursday, because it took the focus off the offense and put it onto the rotation. But it was the Mets offense tonight that made this game much closer then it needed to be, they were 2 for 18 with RISP and left 13 runners on base.
Except for Luis Castillo, each and every player who came up with a runner in scoring position struggled at the plate. In the first three innings they had a runner on third with one out and the batter failed to even get a fly ball. In fact, Austin Kearns' poor fielding gave them one run and the game winner came on a bases loaded walk.
The Mets had 11 hits but only two players had two hits, Luis Castillo and Fernando Tatis. Six different players left a runner in scoring position with two outs and four of them left two runners in scoring position.
I'm not sure how to get them over this block, but as a fan of Frazer Crane maybe they should have a seat on the couch.....
It shouldn't be this hard

Authored by Pilar Dellano for Psyched in San Francisco...
I lost count of the number of times I thought I was in love, but it still took a while before I acknowledged the reasons for so many failures. Most of my relationships were what I call, unconscious entanglements; two dysfunctional people meeting and partnering quickly.
Just before Valentine's Day last year, the naughty little girl inside me started stomping her feet and trying to get my attention. She threw herself on the floor in a tantrum screaming "You need to spice things up! You are a hot, sexy woman with needs and its high time you seduce your husband through some flirtatious emails."
I met Ross my freshman year in college. Eleven years my senior, he was my philosophy adjunct professor at Temple University in Philadelphia. He was cute, Jewish, and intensely attentive. Just my type.
I'd rather wait for Mr. Right than Mr. Right Now. No matter how long it takes.
I pondered. What about the difference in our ages? It isn't unusual for a man to date a woman 20 years younger. But the other way around? Really? The more I thought about it, the more I thought, 'Why cant we have a relationship if we love each other?'
This article first appeared on the blog of Intentional Insights, a nonprofit organization that empowers people to refine and reach their goals by...
Whether you love or hate Valentine's Day, at the very least it's a reminder to reflect on our relationships, and to think about how we can love better...
12 years ago, I broke up with my boyfriend. On Super Bowl Sunday. Two hours before I was supposed to be at a party he was throwing. That might not be ...
I wasn't the girl who dreamed of a great big wedding. Marriage to me was never a must and I believed in commitment without the certificate; yet I knew without a doubt that I wanted to marry this man. So I said yes.
Ok ladies, we're going there... we're talking about sex. I know it's a bit of a taboo subject, but really, it shouldn't be! I'm a happily married woman (for nearly 12 years now) and I think a good sex-life is an EXTREMELY important part of what makes our marriage so happy in the first place.
"I have been dating a great guy for a year and a half, and he moved into my condo 6 months ago. I knew going in that he was divorced (for five years) and has an eight year old son. He is close to his ex, and it's good that they get along, but it's a bit too close."
Even in couples that are 'happily married,' it certainly feels like a majority are mismatched sexually. Somebody -- often the husband, but definitely not always -- isn't happy.
From the beginning of our relationship, I felt something for him. It wasn't my intention to find love when I went online -- it was just to be happy, have sex and a nice time. But this relationship is more than a nice time with a nice man. It's not the same as the first time I fell in love. Is it the real thing? Can I trust it?
Anything worth fighting for will usually put you through the ringer, and monogamy is no exception.
Maybe I am not as pretty as I once was. I have survived losses and betrayals I didn't expect and I have made some big whopper mistakes. But I am way more humble and believe far more in my own resiliency.

Cash Guns Chaos is less a loving tribute to the "Smash TV" brand of shooter and more a cheesy knockoff with an irritating sense of style.
We're stuck in flat, uninteresting squares with limited visibility and enemies that match their environments so closely that they become impossible to see. Boss battles and gun upgrades are fun, yes, but they happen so infrequently that they're not worth fighting for.

Cooking and Cleaning
I haven't posted on this blog for over three months now, and as I sit down to write for it again, I'm aware that I am beginning to write its final chapters. When we returned to the States, I wasn't sure what would happen with this blog (continue/evolve or fade away?), but as time has passed, I've realized that this blog had a specific purpose of reflecting on all that it meant to move overseas, which has expired now. Now that we're back, there are just a few more things I want to say about our transition back to the States (in order to preserve the experience for my own sake as much as anyone else's). I've been mulling these parts over for some time now, and the amount of free time I have just doesn't seem to match up with all I want to say. My goal, now that it's fall break here, is to share these final thoughts over the course of a few posts and then to say goodbye to this space.
Today's topic: cooking and cleaning. I know that many people don't find either task particularly fun to do, much less talk about. Yet, I've found that sometimes it's the really practical, day-to-day issues that have caught us up as we've moved back to the U.S. I have not cooked or cleaned regularly for the past two years of my life. (I feel I need to say that I recognize this as a complicated blessing, not as something that I was or am entitled to.) Most of my colleagues from Bangladesh who have returned to North America are in the same position, and in e-mails and on Facebook, they have been chronicling what it's like to try to return to those tasks. Some find they burn food or misjudge quantities or no longer have the pacing or rhythm that they used to have in the kitchen. Others publicly record moments like the first time they clean the toilet again, recognizing it as somehow significant. I suspect that things like cooking and cleaning become so monumental because it seems to sort of highlight the disjunction that many of us feel, the way we no longer smoothly fit into the world around us. Things that once felt natural no longer do. Awkward chopping in the kitchen feels like a metaphor for our broader discomfort, the way we're no longer "at home" anywhere, even our own houses.
At the same time, these everyday tasks also become the sites for new beginnings, at least for me. One thing I realized in moving to Bangladesh is that my relationship with cooking had become unhealthy. Many of you know that I rarely cooked the same meal twice; one of my hobbies was reading cooking magazines, and I loved trying out new recipes on an almost constant basis. I kept a binder of "beloved" recipes, but even those were ones that I made only about once a year. I believed this was just my cooking style and that it stemmed from my interest in variety. I also believed that I truly enjoyed this way of cooking, that I found it relaxing. In hiring a Bangladeshi cook, I was nervous about whether I would grieve the loss of a stress-relieving hobby and whether I could appreciate the repetition of meals.
When we moved to Bangladesh, and when Muin began cooking his delicious food, I found myself feeling surprisingly free of a burden. A lot of pressure had accompanied my hobby, I realized. I had been creating work for myself with this expectation that I make a new meal each night. It had also occupied, I learned, a too-big percentage of my thought life. Maintaining that pace of cooking new recipes required me to think about food often, both in terms of locating the perfect recipes and in terms of shopping for said recipes (particularly when they required unusual ingredients). I had just made it all too hard, and had given it too much space in my life.
And — please be gentle with me as I'm vulnerable here — I realized that cooking had in some ways become tied to my own sense of identity. Sometimes I truly did enjoy cooking new dishes. But other times I enjoyed being identified as a person who cooked new dishes. I liked the affirmation I received by making good food. Sometimes it was almost a source of pride — for me, an unhealthy one. (Please note that I'm not suggesting that similar cooking habits play this role in anyone else's life. For me, the "unhealthy" part was what was going on internally, not the external practices.)
Around the same time that I was having this revelation, a speaker came to visit our university. She was the highest-ranking police officer in India, and she was a passionate, powerful, and vibrant human being. As she spoke from her own experiences to the students, she talked about how she had been able to achieve her dreams, in part, because she learned to delegate. She thought about what only she could do, and what she could allow other people to do for her. She concluded that only she could primarily raise her children, and only she could perform the roles that were so important to her in her career. Otherwise, she felt that she lost nothing by hiring people to cook and clean for her; in fact, she gained the time that she needed for her family and her job. Obviously, in a South Asian context, hiring domestic employees is a viable solution for someone in the middle or upper classes; it doesn't apply as neatly to life in the States. I found this woman's way of thinking challenging, however, because it helped me think about where I want to be putting the greatest percent of my time and attention. And, it gave me permission to try to cut corners or find ways to "delegate" the things that I had determined were not as important or life-giving for me.
As a result of all of this thinking, Arlyn and I tried to overhaul the way we think about and approach making food upon our return to the States. I created a new binder, but this time it contained tried-and-true favorites that we feel we could cook and eat about every month. We focused on gathering together quick, easy, healthy recipes that we like making and that result in good leftovers. We're trying not to be legalistic about this plan either, but instead to create a system that consumes less time and energy. I've already made a few repeat recipes since we've been back, and I've also given myself permission to purchase a few more convenience goods. (There's plenty of time to make my own bread in the summer.) As crazy as it sounds, all of this has been truly revolutionary.
Cleaning has been harder. We toyed with hiring someone to help occasionally with housework, but in the end we decided we had other financial priorities. At the same time, I feel like my previous way of dealing with this was either to spend (what felt like) my whole life cleaning the house or else letting things go and feeling frustrated at how unkempt the place was — neither of which felt like real options anymore. A friend, however, shared a blog entry she had come across called "The Case for Once a Month Cleaning," which sounded promising. (The follow-up post is "How to Clean Your House Once a Month".) The short version (at least as it applies to me) is that the house gets deep cleaned once a month. During the rest of the time, the family makes greater efforts to keep the place tidy (and does spot cleaning as necessary). Again: revolutionary. I've tried it for a couple of months, and while it's not a perfect system for us, it does seem to be helping in terms of efficiency, sanity, and general cleanliness. There are certain things we've tried to remain committed to, such as not leaving the kitchen after dinner unless all dishes have been dealt with and all surfaces have been washed, which means that most days the place looks presentable. Then, when it comes time for a deep clean, the process is not quite so overwhelming because things have been kept in decent shape all along.
As I'm typing this, I'm aware that all of this must just sound so elementary to so many of you. I admit: efficient home management has never been my strongest suit, and while I wish I would have figured some of this out sooner, I guess I'm glad to be making any progress at all. I'm also aware that deep cleaning only once a month must sound absolutely disgusting to others of you. I'm sorry, but I promise that I'll time it with your arrival if you come to visit (which I hope you will).
There are a lot of ways in which even now, after several months of being back, we still feel ourselves jostling to find a settled place again in America. However, feel free to read this metaphorically, too: We are eating well (if less adventurously). And our house is getting in order.
5 Responses to "Cooking and Cleaning"
Hi Joanne, Arlyn, and Kelyn,
Thank you so much for the blog. I took it home with me yesterday so I could take my time to read it. I was wondering how you were adjusting to being back n the States. Yes, I'm sure there is some minor and some major adjustments. How is teaching gong? It sounds like Kelyn is really enjoying preschool. How is life for you Arlyn? Things at work are very busy. WE are down two people (1 is a case manager and the other one is the crisis person). We are continuing to have lots of people apply for developmental disability services. That takes up most of my time although we get most of the funding for me being a case manager. Oh well!!! Everyone here is doing well. Zach is playing soccer. He scored 2 goals last Sat. and is getting the hang of it. He played goalie some also and did well. Mia is playing soccer beginning in November. Her team is made up of boys and girls. Brian is working lots right now. Colleen is doing well. David is liking his classes—Intro to business, Spanish (online) and keyboarding. Nathan is doing well. He had cellulitis in his left hand a while back—which was very painful—but it is better now.
We had a great time when Curtis and Marg were here. The weather has been beautiful—pretty much no rain for 3 months, but it is supposed to rain this coming weekend. I better get to work.
Have a great day.
Love you,
Have really missed getting a blog entry from you and so was pleasantly surprised to find that you had written, as I hadn't checked for several weeks. I appreciate you sharing the struggles, adjustments and thoughts about life again on this side of the ocean. Is amazing how experiences change oneself and their outlook on life. Yvonne
Once-a-month deep cleaning is about the same or slightly better than we do, Joanne! I can relate to so much of your post. A few years ago, I too had a "breakthrough" in deciding to make sure to wash the dishes every evening, so we could have a clean start in the morning. That was – and continues to be – a freeing choice. Especially since I got an iPod and started listening to podcasts while I wash dishes.
Also wanted to talk up a book that you may have seen me mention elsewhere – 168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think by Laura Vanderkam – http://lauravanderkam.com/books/168-hours/ Her section on household duties included this common-sense yet profound advice – with household tasks, you have three choices – ignore, minimize, or outsource. Or a combination of the three. Sounds like you are working on doing just that.

Surprisingly, for a 4 cylinder engine, this car has a lot of "get up and go". The gas mileage is pretty good, about 28 mpg on average. Comfortable seats. Decent amount of room in the trunk.
Leg room in the back seat can be an issue for people over 5" 5'. It's hard to change the bulbs in the headlights. The fuel pump was very expensive to replace, around $700.
Fun Car! — I've owned this car for 6 years and I still like it tremendously. There have been a few problems with it. There were some recalls that I was unaware of until my tail-lights kept burning out and melting. But when I took it to the shop, they fixed it and the other 2 recalled parts and it's been fine since. I enjoy driving it. It handles well, though I'm a fairly sedate driver, so that may be just me. The cup holders in the front are something I'd like to change, though. They're fine for cans, small drinks and some medium sized cups, but the large 44oz and up tend to bump into the radio tune knob and change radio stations. Update 5/19/15: I gave this car to my daughter when I finally bought my Firebird. After having it for 2 years, she had an accident with one of those brick mailboxes. The car, of course, was totaled, but she walked away unharmed. The air bags did their job well, and even though she hit the mailbox with some force and the front end was crushed, she was not hurt. So, I add to my review my thoughts on the safety of this car in an accident. If I could buy another Sunfire, I'd do so with no reservations.

EPA Gives States Guidelines On Industrial Emissions
The Environmental Protection Agency has come out with new rules for states to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from power plants and other large industrial polluters. The rules go into effect at the beginning of next year and apply only to new facilities and major expansions of existing plants.
STEVE INSKEEP, host:
The odds are not good for legislation on climate change to get through Congress any time soon. Still, environmental regulators are moving forward with new rules. For the first time, the Environmental Protection Agency has issued instructions for states to regulate emissions from power plants and other large industrial polluters.
NPR's Elizabeth Shogren has more.
ELIZABETH SHOGREN: Starting next year, companies would need greenhouse gas permits when building or expanding power plants, refineries, metal smelters, cement kilns or other major polluters. The EPA says at the beginning, instead of being required to install expensive cutting-edge technologies, companies will have to use the most efficient cost-effective equipment available. By using less fuel theyll produce less greenhouse gas pollution.
But lawyer Jeffrey Homestead, who represents businesses covered by the regulations, says they're so unclear that neither businesses nor regulators will know what to do.
Mr. JEFFREY HOMESTEAD (Attorney): It's going to be a mess. There basically will be a construction ban on industrial construction for a couple of years.
SHOGREN: Gina McCarthy, who heads the EPA's air pollution programs, rejects that.
Ms. GINA MCCARTHY (EPA): The Clean Air Act for 40 years has found a way to issue permits in a way that's allowed the economy to continue to grow, allowed new facilities, new companies and new jobs. We are not going to stop that with the greenhouse gas process.
SHOGREN: Some states and businesses are challenging the agency in court. Attempts by congressional opponents to stall the EPA program failed this year. But with Republicans taking control of the House and more Republicans in the Senate, the EPA's rule is a likely target of the new Congress.

Aldnoah.Zero's second season can't quite live up to the finale of the first, but it does use some interesting themes and references to build its story of an increasingly senseless war. ― In all honesty, the first twelve episodes of Aldnoah.Zero didn't really need a sequel. With their pointed conclusion they made a definitive statement about the follies of war while leaving viewers the space to fill i...

It's an inevitable question: why are so many anime series set in and around high school, or star high-school age folks?

The sequel series to the original Mobile Suit Gundam is a much darker look at the horrors of war, and now it's out on bluray in English! Our resident Gundam expert Lauren Orsini weighs in. ― Don't be fooled by the new name or the young new protagonist—Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam is a sequel series.

Former William Morris Topper the Mystery Candidate?
A late addition to the three-way race to become the next president of the Los Angeles Jewish Federation might be a former exec at the William Morris Agency.
Two sources confirmed to The Jewish Journal that Irv Weintraub, WMA's former Chief Operating Officer, is Number 4 on the short list to replace John Fishel.
"He has industry connections," said someone familiar with the process. "He ran a big corporation, and he's been very involved in Federation as a lay leader."
This past June, Weintraub left William Morris in the wake of its merger with Endeavor.
Prior to that, in an interview with The Journal's Danielle Berrin, Weintraub discussed his own views of Hollywood, the Jewish community and Israel:
Weintraub is a Wexner Fellow who also became an active supporter of Aipac, attending the group's national conference in June in Washington D.C.
"The ability to go on the hill and sit with a member of Congress and either thank them for what they do with support for American-Israel relations or, more importantly, meet someone who's uninformed and help educate them on the issues—that's a very powerful thing, and to be able to do that as an ordinary citizen is very special," Weintraub to The Journal at the time.
While one source familiar with the selection process said Weintraub "put his name" into the search process later than other candidates and said it was "too late" for serious consideration, another source said he was still "an interesting possibility."

Journal of Modern Literature
Volume 33, Number 4, Summer 2010
pp. 182-186
This review examines Fordham's adaptation of his knowledge of the Joycean archive to the problem of explicating the Wake. Fordham follows a limited number of passages through an extended process of revision. In this genetic exegesis, a postmodern perspective determines the meaning and intention of Joyce's revisions. While Fordham's grasp of the minutiae of his subject is sophisticated and extensive, his study may appear one-sided in its emphasis on the deconstructive aspect of the Wake and its rejection of the book's cyclical and mythical thematics.

text: Hi, I undersand that tension is the force exerted on an object by a string or rope when pulled. Where I get confused is when I'm asked to find the tension at a point along a rope or tension in a section of rope...would the tension in/of a section of rope be the net force acting on it, or the force it exerts on either end (if this is true, I assume the force acting at each end is necessarily always the same?)? Sorry if I'm not making myself clear...here's an example which might show what I mean... A verticle rope is attatched at both ends (to walls). Find the tension T at distance y above the lower end of the rope. The mass of the section below y is M and the mass above is m. Hope I make sense! Thanks, Matt

Leading powers seek stepped-up monitoring in Ukraine
PARIS (Reuters) – The foreign ministers of Ukraine, Russia, France and Germany agreed on Tuesday to seek a reinforcement of the international monitoring mission in Ukraine and renewed their calls for an oft-breached ceasefire agreement to be respected.
The meeting of about three hours in Paris was called in a bid to rescue an agreement the four powers brokered this month in Belarus capital Minsk, setting out terms for a ceasefire and the withdrawal of arms in the conflict in east Ukraine between government forces and pro-Russian rebels.
Four years on, some in Europe support talking to Assad
BEIRUT/PARIS (Reuters) – Some European Union countries which withdrew their ambassadors from Syria are saying privately it is time for more communication with Damascus even though Britain and France oppose it, diplomats said.
Those states have become more vocal in internal meetings about the need to talk to the Syrian government and have a presence in the capital. London and Paris reject this, saying President Bashar al-Assad has lost all legitimacy.
Libya conflict, order gap spurred French Rafale sale to Egypt
PARIS, Feb 13 (Reuters) – The arms deal that eluded France
for 20 years, its first foreign order for the Rafale combat jet,
came with a Thursday evening phone call crowning weeks of
diplomacy carried out with unusual speed and stealth.
Egypt's decision to buy 24 of the Dassault Aviation
fighters follows failures by successive French
governments to sell the plane and leapfrogs three years of
inconclusive talks for a 126-plane contract with India.
France's Hollande says Egypt to buy Rafale fighters, frigate
BRUSSELS, Feb 12 (Reuters) – French President Francois
Hollande said Egypt would order 24 Rafale fighter jets, a naval
frigate and related military equipment in a deal to be signed in
Cairo on Monday worth more than 5 billion euros ($5.70 billion).
The contract would make Egypt, aiming to upgrade its
military hardware amid fears the crisis in neighbouring Libya
could spill over, the first export customer for the warplane,
built by Dassault Aviation.
French Rafale fighter jet sale to Egypt "imminent" -source
PARIS, Feb 10 (Reuters) – France is close to selling
Dassault Aviation-built Rafale fighter jets to Egypt,
sources close to the matter said on Tuesday, as Cairo looks to
upgrade its military hardware over fears the crisis in
neighbouring Libya could spill over.
France and Egypt have been negotiating since a November
state visit by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi over 24
Rafale jets, a Fremm naval frigate and MBDA air-to-air missiles
in a deal worth 5 billion to 6 billion euros ($5.65-$6.78
billion), two industrial sources told Reuters last week.
France sends advisers to Nigeria border to coordinate Boko Haram fight
PARIS, Feb 5 (Reuters) – France has sent military advisers
to Niger's southern border with Nigeria to help coordinate
military action by regional powers fighting the Islamist group
Boko Haram, a French army official said on Thursday.
The deployment was announced as warplanes pounded Boko Haram
positions just over the border in Nigeria, a resident in the
Niger town of Bosso said, and hundreds of Chadian troops massed
at the frontier to prepare an attack.
In France's suburbs, state neglect breeds resentment
AULNAY-SOUS-BOIS, France (Reuters) – Soul-searching in France in the weeks since Islamist gunmen killed 17 people has centred on battling radical Islam and reinforcing the country's secular tradition. In the "cités", housing estates like those in which the gunmen grew up, this seems to many like seeking a scapegoat for decades of neglect.
"We're not all drug dealers, bank robbers and even less so jihadis," said 28-year-old Yamine Ouassini, whose grandparents emigrated to France from North Africa.
French resolve to act on world stage bolstered by attacks – Hollande
PARIS (Reuters) – Deadly Islamist attacks on France only reinforce its resolve to act on the international stage, intervening in world hotspots and using its diplomatic weight to help solve crises, President Francois Hollande said on Friday.
France, a permanent U.N. Security Council member and nuclear power, has thousands of troops hunting down al Qaeda-linked militants in Africa's Sahel-Sahara region and is part of the U.S.-led coalition striking Islamic State fighters in Iraq.
Charlie Hebdo to publish Mohammad cartoon on front page
PARIS, BOBIGNY, France, Jan 13 (Reuters) – Charlie Hebdo
will publish a front page showing a caricature of the Prophet
Mohammad holding a sign saying "Je suis Charlie" in its first
edition since Islamist gunmen attacked the satirical newspaper.
With demand surging for the edition due on Wednesday, the
weekly planned to print up to 3 million copies, dwarfing its
usual run of 60,000, after newsagents reported a rush of orders.
International editions will be translated into 16 languages.
Islamic State must be wiped out – French defence minister
PARIS (Reuters) – Islamic State fighters must be wiped out, France's defence minister said on Tuesday, indicating that Paris would not pull back from military operations overseas after 17 people were killed by home-grown militants in Paris last week.
After the United States, France has the largest number of planes and troops involved in the coalition fighting Islamic State, which last year took control of large swathes of Iraq and Syria.

Creating rotating geometry from euler angles?
I recently got an X-IMU motion sensor(http://www.x-io.co.uk), and am setting it up to use on Mac (it comes with windows GUI control/output).
Part of what I want to do is be able to visually see the state of the sensor in Max. Like this:
I'm assuming it's possible, but how difficult is that to pull off in Jitter? In terms of the actual rotating shape, ideally with the same graphic overlays.
(my math isn't great…nor is my jitter….hence why I'm asking how hard this is to do)
Sure, can be done. I do something similar with my accelerometers. You mention euler angles. Is that the output of your sensors?
It can spit out raw/calibrated data for each axis of each sensor (16bit 3axis gyro, 12bit 3axis accel, 12bit 3axis mag) as well as euler (and I believe quaternion too (if that's different from euler).
The sensor basically does all the fusion algorithm stuff onboard, so it can spit out absolute angles on it's own.
Looks like the angles coming in (from the euler stuff) are -180 to 180, -90 to 90, and -180 to 180
I've mapped it to a multislider looking thing and for the most part the angles kind of seem to make sense to the way it's physically moving, but it's obviously been flattened to a 2D display.
You can use both the euler and quat rotation pretty much straight on jitter opengl (3d) objects. Convert euler to degrees and use on jit.gl objects 'rotatexyz' attribute. Or take the quat rotation, convert to axis-angle format with [jit.quat2axis] and use on the 'rotate' attribute. The latter should save you from the singularities occurring with euler angles. With this you should be able to visualize your sensor rotation in 3d quite easily.
Btw, i thought ob3d objects could take quat rotations directly but I don't find that in the reference right now.
Ah! See, I'm not crazy… It's the [jit.anim.node] object that has a quat rotation attribute. So you could link your jit.gl shape to a node and input the quat data there.
Hmm. A bit over my head for the time being.
I've bookmarked all the objects to have a more thorough look though.
How about this?

As dtr sais, using quaternions are absolutely advisable to avoid strange things happening to your rotations! So I would focus on them. It's actually quite rewarding (but a bit difficult) trying to understand what quaternions actually are. This articles helped me a lot:
http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial/3d/quaternions.html (basic understanding)
http://www.gamedev.net/page/resources/_/technical/math-and-physics/do-we-really-need-quaternions-r1199 (complex)
Be sure to read about quat multiplication, as you are probably going to need this…
If you prepend 'rotate' to data in axis angle format, you can connect to all jitter opengl objects (so without anim.mode)
I would then suggest to put all your reading from the sensor and parsing data in a separate subpatcher or abstraction. At the end of the cycle there, you would convert your quat data to axis angle using the jit.quat2axis, prepend 'rotate' to it and feed this to an outlet. This way it's just a matter of loading the abstraction/subpatcher and connecting it to the desired objects in your future patchers…
I've looked at some of the math stuff a bit, but as you've mentioned, it can be quite complex.
Thankfully the sensor I got does all the calculations/heavy lifting so the sensor fusion happens on the onboard CPU, so it spits out the crunched numbers.
Thanks for that dtr, I'll plug the sensor to that tomorrow and give it a whirl.

Skit-Scat Raggedy Cat: Ella Fitzgerald
by Roxane Orgill
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This biography about Ella Fitzgerald shed light on her life story in a very positive and interesting way. I was able to learn many things about Fitzgerald that I had never known before. It was a very easy yet sophisticated read. I tagged this book as being diverse because of the rough beginnings that she had to face. Ella Fitzgerald was unable to remain in one safe happy home and in comfortable skin for a long period of time. However, she overcame many obstacles in life and I am so glad that her story was able to have a happy ending.
This story about Ella Fitzgerald shows how she worked her way up to pursue her dream. Even though she was faced with many obstacles throughout the story, Ella did not give up on her passion as she believed that she had a great talent.
This biography on Ella Fitzgerald isn't afraid to embrace the good and the bad of Ella's story. The colors of the pages are bright and colorful despite the downs Ella's had showing off her determination and strong will to get through everything. The book does not "pretty" up Ella's journey and make it only happy. It goes into the death of her mother, moving around, being abused in the orphanage, being turned down, and living on the streets. The book is true to her story and shows how hard she worked to get where she is. The book is a little lengthy for k-3 but that's with sticking to the story. Good biography and great research went into Ella Fitzgerald by the author.
Written in a language that Ella herself could appreciate, this book tells the tale of how Ella Fitzgerald went from a "Skit-Scat Raggedy Cat to Rowdy-Dowdy High-Hat Baby". It gives readers of all ages insight on why we should never stop following our dreams, no matter the circumstances. A great read aloud book, for any age, especially older children.
"Skit-Skat Raggedy Cat" was an excellent book that chronicled the life of Ella Fitzgerald. I did not know much about the singer before reading, "Skit-Skat Raggedy Cat" but after reading it I learned a lot about Ella and her interesting life and rise to fame. I enjoyed the book very much for two main reasons. First, I liked the book because of the way it was written. Ella Fitzgerald was famous for her "skat" style of singing and the book was written almost like a skat song. This is exemplified through lines such as "Ella was a rough-tough raggedy cat on the outside, but inside she was milky and silky and soft and shy" and "They climbed aboard the rumble-rumble subway train (five cents more) to 125th Street, New York City." This made the book fun to read and very authentic, because it was like Ella was singing her story to readers. Secondly, I liked the book for the message it sent. "Skit-Skat Raggedy Cat" was about Ella Fitzgerald's tumultuous life and the difficult journey she had to fame. She was poor, abused, homeless, and ridiculed. However, Ella never gave up on herself and always persevered in the face of her many adversities. This is seen through the sentence, "She'd had a dancing beat in her feet ever since she was a bitty girl in Yonkers, and all she ever needed was a chance to send that beat traveling up through her body, into her throat, and out of her mouth in a song." This described Ella's character perfectly. Even though she was not the prettiest girl in the world or the richest, she took every chance that was given to her and worked very hard so she could accomplish all of her dreams. The big idea of, "Skit- Skat Raggedy Cat" is to always follow your dreams, no matter what you look like or where you come from. A line in the book says, "Ella was thirteen. Her mouth was too big and her eyes were squinty. Ella was not pretty, but she could dance." The last part of this sentence is so important, because it exemplifies how Ella always remembered what she was good at, instead of focusing on what she was lacking. Also, Ella came from a very unstable home and eventually became homeless. She did not have any family or support, and had to fend for herself for the majority of her life. This never stopped Ella from reaching her dreams or kept her out of fancy places in New York City where she could showcase her singing talents. Ella Fitzgerald is a wonderful role model for people, because she always went for what she wanted in life despite her appearance and humble beginnings. Without her fighting spirit and perseverance Ella would not have achieved her dream of being the fantastic singer that she is known as today.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0763617334, Hardcover)A swinging bio of young Ella Fitzgerald, who pushed through the toughest of times to become one of America's most beloved jazz singers.
When Ella Fitzgerald danced the Lindy Hop on the streets of 1930s Yonkers, passersby said good-bye to their loose change. But for a girl who was orphaned and hungry, with raggedy clothes and often no place to spend the night, small change was not enough. One amateur night at Harlem's Apollo Theater, Ella made a discovery: the dancing beat in her feet could travel up and out of her mouth in a powerful song —and the feeling of being listened to was like a salve to her heart. With lively prose, Roxane Orgill follows the gutsy Ella from school-girl days to a featured spot with Chick Webb's band and all the way to her number-one radio hit "A-Tisket, A-Tasket." Jazzy mixed-media art by illustrator Sean Qualls brings the singer's indomitable spirit to life.

Past a verdant forest of shrubbery, a welcoming umbrella-tabled patio, and homey bright red drapery, diners at La Shish Mediterranean Cafe tuck into sumptuous fare from Greece and Lebanon. Gyros crammed with beef and lamb lurk on the lunch and dinner menus, attended by tangy tzatziki sauce and a pronunciation coach. Entrees often arrive with house-whipped hummus and a Greek or Lebanese salad as well. News and Observer food critic Greg Cox is a big fan of La Shish, placing it on his "Hot List: Middle Eastern" not once but twice, and citing the baklava's "shatter-crisp texture and golden brown color" as just two reasons why it is "without peer" in the region.

Deputy cleared in fatal shooting at Buckley motel
TACOMA, Wash. (AP) -- The Pierce County prosecutor says a deputy was justified in fatally shooting a suspect last August at a Buckley motel.
Prosecutor Mark Lindquist says 28-year-old Justin Michael Linn had a violent history and posed a serious danger. He was accused of shooting a homeowner during a residential burglary in July.
When deputies tried to arrest him at the motel they say he ran. He was shot by a deputy who believed Linn was pulling a handgun from his waistband. Linn was not armed, although a handgun was found in his motel room.

TransCanada Submits New Keystone XL Route
Amidst legislation passed by the House to authorize the Keystone XL Pipeline, TransCanada has submitted a new proposal which re-routes the pipeline in Nebraska.
This is a good move on TransCanada's part because it keeps Keystone in the news and reinforces the Obama Administration's dogmatism concerning domestic oil production.
All Romney needs to do here is say, "We're the party of Keystone. They're the party of Solyndra."

Article: Oxidative stress in skeletal muscle stimulates early expression of Rad in a mouse model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Motor neuron degeneration and progressive muscle atrophy characterize amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in humans and related mutant superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) transgenic mice. Our previous microarray studies on ALS muscle revealed strong up-regulation of Ras-related associated with diabetes (Rad), an inhibitor of voltage-gated calcium channels. The mechanisms controlling Rad expression in disease are unknown. We analyzed Rad expression in skeletal muscle from ALS patients and animal models and investigated whether it is regulated by oxidative stress. In mutant SOD1 mice, Rad up-regulation preceded motor symptoms and markedly increased as disease progressed. Increased Rad expression was also obtained in surgically denervated muscle. No clinical signs of denervation were seen in asymptomatic mice, however. We therefore suspected that muscular mutant SOD1 toxicity causes precocious Rad up-regulation. We confirmed the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) at asymptomatic stages, coincident with the rise in Rad expression. By subjecting muscle to ischemia-reperfusion, we observed ROS accumulation and Rad overexpression. The cell-permeative antioxidant Tempol inhibited the stimulatory effect of ischemia-reperfusion. Tempol also reduced Rad up-regulation after experimental denervation. Our study provides strong evidence for the implication of oxidative stress in modulating Rad expression, in association with the initiation and progression of ALS muscle atrophy.
Article: Muscle Mitochondrial Uncoupling Dismantles Neuromuscular Junction and Triggers Distal Degeneration of Motor Neurons[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the most frequent adult onset motor neuron disease, is associated with hypermetabolism linked to defects in muscle mitochondrial energy metabolism such as ATP depletion and increased oxygen consumption. It remains unknown whether muscle abnormalities in energy metabolism are causally involved in the destruction of neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and subsequent motor neuron degeneration during ALS. We studied transgenic mice with muscular overexpression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1), a potent mitochondrial uncoupler, as a model of muscle restricted hypermetabolism. These animals displayed age-dependent deterioration of the NMJ that correlated with progressive signs of denervation and a mild late-onset motor neuron pathology. NMJ regeneration and functional recovery were profoundly delayed following injury of the sciatic nerve and muscle mitochondrial uncoupling exacerbated the pathology of an ALS animal model. These findings provide the proof of principle that a muscle restricted mitochondrial defect is sufficient to generate motor neuron degeneration and suggest that therapeutic strategies targeted at muscle metabolism might prove useful for motor neuron diseases.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Muscle atrophy is a major hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), the most frequent adult-onset motor neuron disease. To define the full set of alterations in gene expression in skeletal muscle during the course of the disease, we used the G86R superoxide dismutase-1 transgenic mouse model of ALS and performed high-density oligonucleotide microarrays. We compared these data to those obtained by axotomy-induced denervation. A major set of gene regulations in G86R muscles resembled those of surgically denervated muscles, but many others appeared specific to the ALS condition. The first significant transcriptional changes appeared in a subpopulation of mice before the onset of overt clinical symptoms and motor neuron death. These early changes affected genes involved in detoxification (e.g., ALDH3, metallothionein-2, and thioredoxin-1) and regeneration (e.g., BTG1, RB1, and RUNX1) but also tissue degradation (e.g., C/EBPdelta and DDIT4) and cell death (e.g., ankyrin repeat domain-1, CDKN1A, GADD45alpha, and PEG3). Of particular interest, metallothionein-1 and -2, ATF3, cathepsin-Z, and galectin-3 genes appeared, among others, commonly regulated in both skeletal muscle (our present data) and spinal motor neurons (as previously reported) of paralyzed ALS mice. The importance of these findings is twofold. First, they designate the distal part of the motor unit as a primary site of disease. Second, they identify specific gene regulations to be explored in the search for therapeutic strategies that could alleviate disease before motor neuron death manifests clinically.
