Allegiance Health has been named a Screening Center of Excellence by the Lung Cancer Alliance (LCA) for its ongoing commitment to responsible lung cancer screening. Low dose CT screening for lung cancer carried out safely, efficiently and equitably saves tens of thousands of lives a year.
"We are proud and honored to be working with Allegiance Health as a Lung Cancer Alliance Screening Center of Excellence. Their commitment to practice responsible lung cancer screening will lead to advancements in research and many lives saved. They are an example to follow," said LCA President and CEO, Laurie Fenton Ambrose.
Designated Screening Centers of Excellence are committed to provide clear information based on current evidence as to who is a candidate for lung cancer screening. These Centers comply with comprehensive standards based on best practices developed by professional bodies such as the American College of Radiology, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network and the International Early Lung Cancer Action Program. These standards focus on controlling screening quality, radiation dose and diagnostic procedures within an experienced, multi-disciplinary clinical setting.
"Allegiance Health's multidisciplinary lung team drove our decision to pursue this designation. We are now thrilled to be part of this elite group, setting an example for responsible screening practices across the country," said Samir Parikh, MD. "This is especially meaningful because the occurrence of lung cancer in Jackson County is higher than state and national averages."
Allegiance thoracic surgeon Mohan Kulkarni, MD, said, "Because early detection is key, we are committed to providing high quality, life-saving care to our community. We offer both low dose CT screening and navigational bronchoscopy, which are proven methods for detecting lung cancer at an early and treatable stage."
On Friday, September 25, Allegiance Health hosted the 2nd Annual Jackson Trauma Symposium. The symposium featured six invited speakers who are trauma leaders and experts from trauma centers in our region. Topics included massive transfusion, trauma in pregnancy, safety behaviors in the trauma resuscitation bay, geriatric trauma, mutilating hand injuries, and managing acute pain in the chronic pain patient. The program was moderated by Dr. Larry Narkiewicz, Trauma Medical Director at Allegiance, who summarized lessons learned about the trauma head-to-toe assessment, anticoagulation in the elderly trauma patient, when to transfer a patient with a significant hand injury, opiate tolerance in the chronic pain patient, and fluid resuscitation in the injured pregnant patient.
Nearly 200 trauma professionals attended, and they included attending physicians, resident physicians and medical students, nurses, EMTs, pharmacists and other health care workers. About half of the attendees came from hospitals or agencies outside of Allegiance Health. They came from as far north as Keewanau, northeast to Cass City and Caro, east to Detroit, South to Toledo, and west to Grand Haven and Dowagiac. What our guests had in common – besides a desire to learn more about state of the art trauma care – was their participation in Michigan's new State-wide trauma system. "As we gear up for trauma," said a nurse from Moncalm County (north of Grand Rapids), "we're looking for seminars like this one, where our staff can learn about a variety of trauma topics without traveling too far."
Dr. Ray King voiced similar sentiments during his welcoming remarks, when he said, "It seems that we are all on this trauma journey together, and the journey includes teaching and learning about best practices in trauma care." He also invited everyone to mark their calendars for September 30, 2016, for the 3rd Annual Jackson Trauma Symposium.
Two cases of confirmed, six cases of probable, and four suspect cases of lymphogranuloma venerum (LGV) have been reported in Michigan as of October 2015; up from 4 probable cases reported in the health alert sent on September 29, 2015. The majority of these cases have been reported by a single health care facility in Southeast Michigan. Current cases live in Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties. The initial case was reported in August and the most recent was diagnosed in early October.
LGV is a rare and poorly characterized STD in the U.S. with the last reported case in Michigan occurring in 2008. LGV is caused by a serological variant of Chlamydia trachomatis. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has been working with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) on managing this outbreak. MDHHS staff have been conducting partner elicitation and contact tracing with cases and referring partners for testing and treatment.
The confirmed, probable, and suspect cases are nearly all among African American men who have sex with men (MSM) who also have HIV. Many of the reported cases are contacts of each other and have met partners online. Commonly reported symptoms have been penile lesions, anogenital symptoms, and inguinal lymphadenopathy; please refer to the attached case definition for a more specific list of LGV-associated symptoms. Providers seeing patients with these symptoms should consider LGV in their differential diagnosis, especially among MSM in Southeast Michigan with symptoms and for those with positive chlamydia tests whose symptoms do not resolve with standard treatment.
In persons with a clinical presentation compatible with LGV infection, nucleic acid testing for Chlamydia trachomatis of the affected area (e.g. anal swabs and/or swabs of ulcers) is indicated. Urine nucleic acid testing will frequently be negative. Samples that test positive should be forwarded to MDHHS laboratories for referral to CDC for specialized testing. Details on proper specimen collection methodologies are attached.
The recommended treatment regimen for LGV is Doxycycline 100 mg orally twice a day for 21 days. Sexual partners of a probable or confirmed LGV case should be tested for chlamydia infection and presumptively treated with doxycycline 100 mg orally twice a day for 7 days. Given the context of this outbreak, where cases are occurring among HIV-infected persons or persons at elevated risk of HIV infection, 21 days of treatment should be considered.
All information related to clinical and laboratory reports on suspected or probable cases should be made to Jim Kent at (517) 335-8247 or firstname.lastname@example.com and entered into the Michigan Disease Surveillance System (MDSS).
Further questions about this health alert can be directed to Karen Krzanowski at (517) 241-0870 or email@example.com.
Cryoablation is a minimally invasive procedure that uses extreme cold to correct an irregular heart rhythm called atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation can be a detriment to quality of life. This relatively new technology is an alternative to radiofrequency ablation, which uses thermal energy or heat to suppress symptomatic atrial fibrillation. A cardiologist determines which treatment is most appropriate, according to each patient's condition and needs.
During the cryoablation procedure, an electrophysiologist inserts a balloon catheter, from a vein in the leg into the pulmonary veins located in the left upper chamber of the heart, the left atrium. A finite area of heart tissue surrounding each of the four pulmonary veins is frozen to help maintain normal rhythm and to prevent atrial fibrillation from recurring.
"Typically, cryoablation is completed in less than half the time it takes to perform radiofrequency ablation and with fewer complications," said Allegiance Electrophysiology Medical Director Bipin Ravindran, MD, MPH. "A smaller amount of anesthesia is required, and patients often have less post procedure pain."
Research shows that cryoablation can be more effective than medication alone in treating atrial fibrillation in selected patients. This is an FDA approved treatment for in-and-out atrial fibrillation that is not controlled by antiarrhythmic drugs.
"Allegiance Health's investment in this state of the art technology reflects a real commitment to this community. Patients no longer have to travel out of town to receive the best treatment options and care," said Bipin Ravindran, MD, MPH. "While cryoablation is not appropriate in every case, it does offer significant advantages in the treatment of atrial fibrillation."
Allegiance Health is proud to offer women in our community the most advanced mammogram technology available. Digital breast tomography (DBT) is a non-invasive, three-dimensional imaging technique used for the early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer.
"This FDA-approved procedure provides the radiologist with multiple-layered images that separate overlapping breast tissue, adding clarity to the digital mammography image," said Samir Parikh, MD, vice chief of Imaging Services. This technology is ideal for patients with dense breast tissue (about 40 – 50 percent of women), which provides a challenge for traditional mammograms. "If a patient has been notified of having dense breasts, tomography is best suited for them," Dr. Parikh said.
At Allegiance Health, DBT will initially be used for diagnostic purposes "That is when a woman identifies a breast lump, has dense breast tissue, or had a two-dimensional mammogram that revealed an area concern," said Amy McCann, Imaging Services clinical manager. "A radiologist will determine which type of breast imaging follow up is most appropriate in each case."
Because of the improved visualization DBT allows the radiologist, the technology has been shown to result in fewer false positives. With a lower rate of call backs for follow-up mammograms, it may also lead to fewer unnecessary biopsies. All of these outcomes mean positive gains in terms of greater efficiency and patient care.
"For women who are worried about a breast lump or an area of concern on their initial mammogram, having the 3-D imaging option right here in our community can bring real peace of mind," McCann stated.

I am trying to find a way to combine my two passions in life, cycling and technology for a cheap price. Basically I shattered my arm pretty bad recently in a softball game and I am required to train indoors for a while (since the trainer takes care of the balancing for me). I have a simple CyclOps Mag trainer that does the job. I want a way of transmitting my cadence data (and perceived distance and speed, though it's fairly meaningless on a trainer) to a computer 10 feet away. Mainly because I have a nice big LCD screen that I can monitor my live data and possibly log it.
I know there is a bluetooth sensor called the VeloComputer that is for transmitting data to your phone. I don't see any reason the J2ME app can't be ported to a computer. But there would be mounting issues due to the trainer since it attaches to the same skewer clamp that the trainer attaches to. I am wondering if there are any other gadgets and apps that will do the same thing.
Any help would be much appreciated. Again hoping to keep costs down.
Thank you,
Cyclists Against Playing Softball

What's the Idea?
If a user tries to tag a Stack Overflow question with a tag that is used frequently on one of the sites that is closely related (DBA, Programmer, etc.) the tag should show up with the suggestion that the question belongs on Site X.
This would mean that if I start typing
Index on SO as a tag, it would tell me that the question might belong on DBA, and if I type
indexed-view, it almost certainly should be moved, since the tag exists on DBA but not SO. This would be especially useful for these tags that do not exist on Stack Overflow, but are on these other sites - so the site would need to track these. (More on this later.) This is not forced migration, but if a user types a tag that makes it seem likely that the question belongs elsewhere, we should tell them beforehand, not afterwords.
What would this look like?
The tags could be displayed in a new color, with a box suggesting migration, and if tags that don't exist on the current site, but are on one of the suggested migration sites are put into the tag list, they would only be allowed to post if they had a reputation above X or removed the tag (The tag-creation limit is probably the right number, but the warning should stay even for them.) This would look like the popup suggested here: http://meta.stackexchange.com/a/101231/187896
Which Tags Should be Picked?
There are a number of sites now, and obviously
Android on Science Fiction and Fantasy is not the same as
Android on Stack Overflow. The tags that are recommended for this would need to be more specific in how they find overlap.
Options: (Pick all that are correct)
- Finding which sites questions have already been migrated to, and picking all tags applied to a significant share of the questions moved to that site.
- Pick the top tags of questions that were moved to each site, ordered by the percentage of questions with that tag in the past year that were moved.
- Automatically use tags that were applied to some percentage of previously moved questions after the move.
- Allow moderators to manually add tags to this list.
Even an initial pass of the top 100 moved question tags could have a significant benefit to direct the users to the correct site. The list of tags that are used for this could be updated monthly or weekly, so that it's not constantly changing - and if it seems to be changing frequently, the choice methodology can be re-assessed.
Is this a Dupe?
I think not.
Similar things have been discussed here: This question may belong to <Another site>, consider migrating - this addresses some issues pointed out in the answers there, like upkeep costs, ongoing calculations, and specific ideas on how to select the tags.
Also these were mentioned, but this would be different, and I think it would be less effort to upkeep and implement. See here: Suggest community wiki based on title keywords, tags and here: Suggest community wiki based on title keywords, tags.

In this activity students learn how Earth's energy balance is regulating climate. This activity is lesson 4 in the nine-lesson module Visualizing and Understanding the Science of Climate Change.
This is an animated interactive simulation that illustrates differential solar heating on a surface in full sunlight versus in the shade.
This video describes what black carbon is, where is comes from, and how it contributes to sea ice melt and global warming.
This three-part, hands-on investigation explores how sunlight's angle of incidence at Earth's surface impacts the amount of solar radiation received in a given area. The activity is supported by PowerPoint slides and background information.
This 15-panel interactive from NOVA Online describes some of the factors (e.g., Earth's rotation and the sun's uneven heating of Earth's surface) contributing to the formation of the high-speed eastward flows of the jet streams, found near the top of the troposphere. These jet streams play a major role in guiding weather systems.
On September 27, 2013, Working Group I of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) presented its report to member governments for approval and acceptance. The report is the first of four that will make up the IPCC's 5th Assessment.
The National Solar Radiation Database contains 30 years (1961-1990) of solar radiation and supplementary meteorological data, and hourly solar radiation and meteorological data for 237 National Weather Service sites in the United States, Guam, and Puerto Rico. Also includes maps of the monthly amounts of solar power that could be generated with various solar collectors.
Seven stations continuously collecting solar, infrared, meteorology, and ultraviolet radiation data are located in climatologically diverse regions of the U.S.—including Colorado, Illinois, Mississippi, Montana, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and South Dakota.
Solar and ultraviolet radiation (UV) data recorded from 1995-2001 for nine sites located in California, Florida, New Mexico, North Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington, and Wisconsin.
The LAPS system produces rapidly updated, high-resolution analyses and forecasts of solar radiation. The cloud analysis uses satellite, METARs, radar, aircraft, and model first guess information to produce an hourly 3-D field of cloud fraction, cloud liquid, and cloud ice. The cloud analysis and satellite data together are used to produce a gridded analysis of total solar radiation.

The vapid Superstar in question is Jane Forth. Personally I think she sounds more like a Brooklyn girl in a whole different league than what she is used to.
More interesting, is the gallery scene at the beginning. Aside from Nico, Warhol can be seen with a blonde in black glasses and hat. She is Andrea Whips Feldman, notorious for her backroom antics at Max's Kansas City. She also famously committed suicide by having a number of her x-bf's meet her at a spot on 5th Ave, only to have them view her death leap from a 14th floor window. Jim Carrol was amongst them, and wrote rather touchingly about the experience. It probably did not happen long after this clip, as she died in late 72. The film "L'Amour" that is mentioned was released in early 73. Here it had just stopped filming.
I think the jury may still be deadlocked on Warhol as a evil man. Brutal perhaps. However many did benefit from his association, and it must be noted that he did provide a certain umbrella for quite a few along the way. The ones who seem to fare the worst were those who had the most tenuous grasp on reality, fame, or true creative ability. As well as unmanageable drug problems and a absolute refusal to take responsibility for their own actions.
It most be noted however that Andrea was said to have left a extremely vicious suicide note aimed at Warhol.

My bad...My somewhat fuzzy coffee time recollection of the Warhol crowd/art/nonsense mixed up the two. I guess in my defense they do look somewhat similar."Oh you know...(in hushed tones) *really now...all those factory people do look alike...*"
To somewhat misquote Lenny Bruce: "I don't get to be the smartest bear in the zoo".
In any event, this is as good a time as any to say I'm glad that you are here and have not lost any steam. Thanks for a lot of really good time spent fueling my unmarketable pop culture addiction. :)

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for treating spent liquor from the pulp industry, whereby the spent liquor is introduced into a mixing tank for adding ash and/or other substances to the spent liquor.
The spent liquor, i.e. black liquor produced in the manufacture of chemical pulp in the pulp industry, is normally incinerated in a chemicals and heat recovering boiler. In a conventional recovery boiler, the process chemical is recovered by injecting liquor into the furnace, whereby the liquor dries rapidly and burns in reducing conditions, producing a melt. The melt primarily contains sodium carbonate, sodium sulfide and sodium sulfate, however a large number of other compounds are also present. The main components, Na2 CO3 and Na2 S, are essential to the manufacture of cellulose pulp, particularly kraft pulp.
The flue gases from the recovery boiler contain abundant quantities of ash ("fly ash"), which is typically separated in an ash hopper and electrostatic filters prior to exhausting the flue gas from the boiler.
The main component of this fly ash is sodium sulfate. Usually, the fly ash is recycled to the soda recovery boiler by mixing the ash with the strong black liquor which is to be introduced into the boiler. However a significant problem area in the black liquor treatment process is the mixing of fly ash and make-up chemical (e.g. Na2 SO4), if any, with the black liquor. Conventionally, a separate, fairly large mixing tank is provided, in which the ash is mixed with the black liquor coming from evaporators of an evaporation plant (via a storage tank) into the mixing tank. Black liquor is also returned from the liquor circulation of the boiler to the mixing tank.
The black liquor storage and treating system of the prior art has many problems associated therewith. When returned from the boiler to the mixing tank, the hot black liquor emits vapors which contain substantial quantities of impurities. Vapor is carried to the ash transportation means where it causes malfunctions, requiring frequent maintenance and cleaning of the system. The costs are high because of the separate, large mixing tank. There are also a large number of pumps and much piping. As the whole system is complicated and requires numerous pieces of equipment, operating and maintenance costs are high.
According to the present invention, a method and apparatus for storing and treating of black liquor which are simpler, more economical, and more reliable in operation than the prior art described above, is provided. A feature of the method according to the present invention is that the mixing tank is connected to the spent liquor storage tank so that mixed liquid is discharged directly into the storage tank. A feature of the apparatus according to the invention is that a volume is provided with a mixer connected to the spent liquor storage tank, the storage tank defining a part of the mixing volume.
The invention essentially improves the reliability in operation of the mixing procedure. The ash and salt cake mix more uniformly with the black liquor, vapor emissions do not cause the types of problems of conventional mixing tank systems, and the system is simple and reliable. Several pumps and pipes necessary in the prior art system may be eliminated.
One aspect of the invention comprises: A spent liquor storage tank having a liquid outlet from a bottom portion thereof, and including a sidewall defining an interior. Means defining a mixing tank having a much smaller interior volume than the storage tank, the means including the sidewall of the storage tank. Means for mixing fly ash and spent liquor in the mixing tank. Means for introducing fly ash and spent liquor into the mixing tank. And, means for discharging mixed fly ash and spent liquor from the mixing tank directly into the interior of the storage tank.
Another aspect of the invention comprises: A black liquor storage tank having a top and a bottom, including a liquid outlet adjacent the bottom thereof, and an interior volume. A recovery boiler connected to the liquid outlet, and producing fly ash. A recirculating conduit connected from the recovery boiler to the storage tank interior volume. A mixing tank remote from the recirculating conduit having a discharge opening in direct communication with the storage tank interior volume. Black liquor evaporators. Means for connecting the black liquor evaporators to the mixing tank for introducing black liquor from the evaporators into the mixing tank. Means for introducing fly ash from the recovery boiler into the mixing tank. And, mixing means associated with the mixing tank for mixing black liquor and fly ash therein to produce a liquid mixture that is discharged through the discharge opening directly into the storage tank interior volume.
Another aspect of the invention comprises the following method steps for treating spent liquor from pulping: (a) Concentrating the spent liquor. (b) Feeding the concentrated liquor into the mixing volume. (c) Introducing fly ash, and optionally makeup chemical, into the mixing volume. (d) Mixing the concentrated liquor, fly ash, and optionally makeup chemical, in the mixing volume to provide a liquid mixture. (e) Discharging the liquid mixture directly into the interior of the storage tank from the mixing volume, without utilizing any conduits external of the storage tank. (f) Withdrawing liquid mixture from the storage tank and introducing it into the recovery boiler to be burned. And, (g) recirculating a part of the liquid mixture from the recovery boiler back to the storage tank. The invention provides a simplified and advantageous method and apparatus for handling black liquor or like spent liquor.

A conventional black liquor treatment and storage system is similar to that shown in FIG. 1. The black liquor 10 coming from evaporators, etc., of a conventional evaporation plant is stored in one or more strong liquor tanks 11. The black liquor is pumped from the strong liquor tanks 11 via line 12 to a conventional recovery boiler for incineration. Extra liquor from the liquor circulation of the boiler is returned via line 13 to the mixing tank 14. A separate circulation system from the strong liquor tank 11 to the mixing tank 14 is also typically provided. Thus, the black liquor is conveyed via line 15 to the mixing tank 14 where the ash 16 from the recovery boiler and make-up chemical (e.g. Na2 SO4) in line 17 are added to it. The black liquor is circulated via line 18 to the storage tank 11 after mixing.
FIG. 2 illustrates in more detail the structure of a conventional mixing tank 14. The mixing tank 14 has one or two compartments and it is provided with a suction chamber. FIG. 2 shows a conventional two-compartment mixing tank 14. Ash 16 and a salt addition 17, if any, are supplied to the first compartment 21 of the mixing tank 14. Black liquor 15 from the storage tank 11 is also conveyed to the first compartment 21 of the tank 14. A first mixer 25 mixes the liquor, ash and salt. The liquid mixture is carried to the second compartment 22 of the tank 14, which is also provided with a mixer 25. Liquor 13 returning from the recovery boiler is also conveyed to compartment 22. A perforated plate 24, serving as a screen, is disposed between the tank compartment 22 and suction chamber 23. From the suction chamber 23, black liquor in line 18 is returned to the storage tank 11.
The system of FIGS. 1 and 2 has problems associated therewith. Emitted vapor is carried to the ash and salt feed means 16, 17 causing malfunctions. Efficient mixers 25 are necessary for mixing of the ash and salt. The screen 24 disposed in the suction chamber 23 of the mixing tank 14 becomes clogged, and thus often must be cleaned, and maintenance and cleaning of the equipment is difficult in other respects as well.
An exemplary black liquor treating system in accordance with the present invention is illustrated schematically in FIG. 3. Black liquor coming from the evaporation plant 29 via line 30 is stored in one or two storage tanks 31. From the tank or tanks 31, the black liquor is pumped via line 32 to the recovery boiler 28 for incineration. Extra black liquor returning from the boiler 28 is conveyed via line 33 to the black liquor storage tank 31 (not to a separate external mixing tank as in the prior art). In accordance with the invention, a mixing tank 34 is provided, but disposed in the immediate vicinity of the black liquor storage tank 31, typically within it as seen in FIGS. 3 and 4. The ash and make-up chemical, if any, to be added to the black liquor are fed to the mixing tank 34 in the black liquor storage tank 31 via line 35. The mixing tank 34 comprises a volume separated from the storage tank 31 by a solid partition wall or walls 34a and a solid bottom 34b, which space is in communication, through an overflow opening or like means 36, with the interior of the storage tank 31 for transferring treated liquor thereto. The sidewall 41 (see FIG. 4) of the tank 31 also defines part of the tank 34.
FIG. 4 is a more detailed illustration of a preferred embodiment for implementing the mixing tank 34 according to the invention. The mixing tank 34, defined by walls 34a, bottom 34b, and solid top 34c, is dispose in the upper section of the strong liquor tank 31, and is also formed by interior wall 41 thereof. The interior volume 42 (see FIG. 3) of the tank 34 is in direct communication (through opening 36) with the storage tank 31 interior volume. Black liquor is conveyed from the evaporation plant 29 via line 30 to the mixing tank Ash and a salt addition, if any, are also conveyed via line 35 to the tank 34. The mixing tank 34 is provided with a propeller agitator 43, which mixes ash and salt with the black liquor. From the mixing tank 34, the liquid mixture is discharged as an overflow 45 via slot 36 to the interior of the storage tank 31.
FIG. 5 illustrates (by the same reference numerals as in FIG. 4) a structure otherwise corresponding to that of FIG. 4, but in this structure, a suction pipe mixer 44 is disposed within the mixing tank 34' as the mixing means. The black liquor coming from the evaporation plant 29 is conveyed to the storage tank 31, or directly to the mixing tank 34' if desired. Black liquor may be circulated within the storage tank by a pump (not shown). Liquor in line 30, either from a pump or directly from evaporation plant 29, is conveyed to the upper section 46 of the suction chamber of suction pipe mixer 44. From the bottom end 47 of the suction mixer 44 the flow turns upwards entraining ash and salt-containing black liquor with it. From the mixing tank 34', the black liquor is discharged as an overflow 45 to the storage tank 31.
FIG. 6 illustrates another embodiment according to the present invention in which the mixing tank 34"0 is connected to the storage tank 31 by an overflow conduit 36a instead of an opening or a slot (36 in FIGS. 3-5). The reference numbers are the same as in FIG. 3 for respective items. The black liquor is here conveyed from the mixing volume 42 via conduit 36a to the storage tank 31, typically below the level of black liquor (e.g. 48) therein.
In the embodiments of FIGS. 3-6, the mixing tank is disposed within the black liquor storage tank. An arrangement is also possible where the mixing tank, comprised of a closed volume in communication with the storage tank, is disposed outside the storage tank as a protruding part, as illustrated schematically at 134 in FIG. 7 (the rest of the reference numerals in FIG. 7 being the same as in FIGS. 3 and 4). Such an arrangement may ease maintenance work. In all embodiments another agitator 50 preferably is provided adjacent the bottom of tank 31.
The apparatus according to the present invention, in which a separate ash and salt mixing tank has been eliminated by providing the mixing tank 34, 34', 34", 134 in immediate contact with the strong liquor tank 31, has numerous advantages associated therewith, such as:
- vapor emissions from the hot black liquor do not cause as many problems because the liquor is returned from the liquor circulation of the recovery boiler to the large storage tank;
- the ash and salt mix more uniformly with the black liquor;
- the mixing time of ash and salt is long, which is advantageous;
- the number of circulating pumps decreases;
- the number of tubes and valves decreases;
- less instrumentation is needed;
- the manufacture of the mixing tank within the strong liquor tank costs much less than that of a separate mixing tank;
- less cleaning is required;
- less maintenance is required;
- operating costs are decreased; and
- safety in operation is improved because the mixing tank is remote from the melt spout area.
While the invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be the most practical and preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that the invention is not to be limited to the disclosed embodiment, but on the contrary, is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

Love this liqour store! Always head there when I can't find a beer anywhere else. Very well stocked and a wide range of beers (from around the world), wines, liquors, and everything else in between. Staff is very helpful when it comes to all alcohol needs. Only thing is they name their prices. But thats only because they have some of the rarest beers you can find.
This is an awesome little shoppe and I love that it is right up the road from me. Actually it is rather big considering what they stock. I am a beer guy especially when it comes to Michigan breweries and other craft beers in general. They have a decent selection although there are a few I wish they carried, …
Since 1992 the company has been providing Beer (packaged).

The deadline was set in a letter to Sup. Joseph F. Drexler, Sixth Ward, Oshkosh, County Board chairman and aviation committee secretary, but Drexler did not bring it up at the committee meeting. The closest reference to the Outagamie Winnebago dispute came when committee chairman Sup. Alvin A. Staffeld, Third Ward, Neenah, proposed that the recently revised statement of po- sition by the Bureau of Economic Regulation be furnished every member of the County Board. Rebuked By Steinhilber He received a stiff rebuke at this point from Sup. E. G.

Steinhilber said he had been wanting to tell Staffeld for a long time just that, and that Staffeld's proposal to single out one docu- ment from a "pile of documents pertaining to the airport con- :roversy for presentation to the Doard members presented the ap- propriate opportunity. Duties to Promote "You are chairman of a com- mittee whose duties, spelled out in the rules, are to promote this! airport. There is nothing in the rules for us as a committee to do anything with another air- port."

Daily Om: The essence of all being is energy. Our physical and ethereal selves depend on the unrestricted flow of life energy that is the source of wholeness and wellness. Though the channels through which this energy flows are open systems and influenced by factors outside of our control, we ultimately choose what impact these will have in our lives. It is up to us to identify and clear blockages in the energy field to ensure that flow is maintained. A healthy, grounded individual absorbs some portion of the energy emitted by other people and the environment, but this does not interrupt the continuous stream of balanced energy sustaining them. The same individual copes constructively with stress and upset, and they are not subject to the stagnation that frequently goes hand in hand with negativity. When we keep the energy in and around our bodies flowing harmoniously, we are naturally healthy, vibrant, and peaceful....read more>>>...

Where can I get help to appeal?
Appealing can be a very stressful process and if your child has a statement there are tight deadlines, so it's a good idea to seek professional advice at this point.
The Special Educational Needs and Disability Tribunal have useful information on the appeal process, or you can contact the parent partnership service or a specialist voluntary organisation.
What Next?
- Visit the Special Educational Needs and Disability Tribunal website for information on making an appeal or call the SEN helpline on 0870 241 2555 in England or 01597 829 800 in Wales.
- Visit the IPSEA website or contact their helpline on 0800 018 4016.
- Contact ACE Education for free advice on education or call the helpline on 0300 0115 142
- Contact the Children's Legal Centre for legal advice and information on policies affecting children and young people or call them on 01206 872 466.
- If you are in Wales you can get support from Snap. For more information, visit the Snap Cymru website or call 0845 120 3730.
- If you are in Northern Ireland you can get support from SENAC, the special educational needs advice centre, by calling 028 9079 5779 Monday to Wednesday or 029 9070 5654 Wednesday to Friday.

Eli Manning - The $100 Million Man
The New York Football Giants gave Eli Manning a 7-year, $107 million contract extension yesterday, and it wasn't like they even had a choice.
Is Eli Manning worth that amount of money? Absolutely not. Do not get me wrong, he was phenomenal in their Super Bowl run and played more like his brother than his actual self.
However, he is just a solid quarterback in the regular season. Nothing more, nothing less.
During the last two seasons, he has thrown for a pretty pedestrian 6.5 yards per attempt and a completion percentage of 58. Last year, he was ninth in touchdown percentage, seventh in interception percentage, and ninth in touchdown-interception ratio.
These are not the numbers of a quarterback who was worthy of a contract that large... not even close.
Like I said though, the Giants were handcuffed to giving him a big contract. But why?
First of all, the Giants are destined to go to the playoffs over the next five seasons. Their offensive line and defense is too dominant, and they have the dollars to continue to upgrade their team in free agency. Jerry Reese is phenomenal on Draft Day and he will continue to stack the depth chart with talent to keep the Giants as a Super Bowl contender.
What does this have to do with anything? If you go to the playoffs every year, you will not have a high enough first-round draft pick to find a quarterback better than Eli Manning. Great quarterbacks never hit free agency, and Manning is the best the Giants can do in their situation.
Secondly, Jerry Reese knows Eli's price tag would just get higher if he waited, and what is he waiting for? He doesn't have any options at the quarterback position, and therefore had to lock up Eli right now.
The Giants will win 50-plus regular season games over the next five seasons. Eli does not turn the ball over often, and he plays into the Giants game plan of using a dominant defense, offensive line and running game to grind on opponents. Tom Coughlin is an excellent head coach when it comes to game management.
Manning will do what he has to to keep the Giants as a contender, but his statistics do not back up his contract and he is not an explosive playmaker under center.

I dont want baby to think I am just going to get up in the middle of the night to eat a big meal- any ideas on what I can do?

OMG that is me. I am so darn hungry every couple hours. I was so tired last night. I went to bed at 10pm and woke up at 3 am to pee but also my hunger pains woke me up. I could not go back to sleep. So I drank a ton of water which helped with the hunger and I watched a bunch of old episodes of Roseanne and finally fell back asleep. (I really did not want to eat at 3am.) So I got up at 7 and ran down and made a huge bowl of cereal and then I ate a brownie!
So in love with my Chloe Angelina 1/29/10!

You can keep snacks next to your bed so you don't have to get all the way up and going. I carry snacks in my purse and in the car. I am hungry all the time.

That is SOO me! With my first pregnancy, I vomited non-stop for weeks on end. This time, I am starving! I get hungry about every 2 hours. In between that and peeing every hour or so, I am amazed I can get anything done!

I am hungry constantly - that was the same w/ my first 2 pregnancies as well. I keep Kashi bars in my nightstand. They satisfy my hunger, and they're good for you, too, so I don't feel guilty at all. They also make great mid-day snacks. :)

Pain shouldn't stop you from enjoying life's best moments. Summit Orthopedic Group understands the damper chronic pain can put on your life.
We have specialists ready to work with you to determine the best way to get you back on your feet, whether through therapy, non-surgical treatments, or a total joint replacement.
- Fracture care
- Hip replacement surgery
- Sports medicine
- Joint replacement
Conditions & Procedures
The most common conditions we treat include:
- Arthritis
- Bursitis
- Joint pain
- Osteoporosis
- Carpal Tunnel
- Tendonitis
- Sprains & Strains
- Fractures & Breaks
Anterior Hip Replacement
Although a total hip replacement surgery can sound intimidating, we use the newest methods available to make these procedures less invasive than traditional replacement surgeries.
At Summit Orthopedic Group, Dr. Jeffrey Lutton specializes in the Anterior Hip approach. This approach allows a surgeon to operate from the front of the leg. Dr. Lutton can move or separate the muscles and tendons to reach the joint, sparing those tissues from being cut as they would using the traditional approach.
Anterior Hip replacement is a minimally invasive procedure. A majority of patients will experience a faster recovery, less muscle damage and less muscle weakness initially.
Schedule an appointment today by calling (717) 263-1220 or (717) 765-5060 and see if anterior hip replacement is the best option for you.
Hospital Services
We provide surgical services at Chambersburg Hospital, Waynesboro Hospital and the Summit Surgery Center. We offer a wide variety of minimally invasive surgery techniques to help you recover faster and with less pain.

As a guest, you will enjoy a home-made, delicious breakfast on the large terrace. You can also use our infinity pool off the main house which overlooks the gorge and rice terraces (we just ask that you respect our family's privacy once we return home from work/school).
The gladak is a 50sqm/500sqf stand-alone building with complete privacy, including terrace and bathroom.
On the property we also have a trampoline (built into the ground), a fire pit for camp-fires, huge beautiful trees and a bamboo grove.
There is lots of parking right outside our door. We are located 100m off the village road down a private driveway, so there is no traffic noise at all!
Our compound is located 1.4km from the main road of Ubud, in the village of Kutuh Kaja, where you will find an abundance of restaurants, spas, studios and shops. The Ubud Botanical Gardens is 500m further up our street, and the only gym in Ubud is 700m from our house.
During your stay with us, we're happy to suggest things to do, places to see, and interesting people to meet-- but you will find it all in our "welcome book' anyway, which we can send you by email before you arrive so you can plan your trip. Some of our favorite things in Ubud are yoga classes, mountain biking, visiting alternative healers, and visits to some of Bali's incredible temples. The book also has contact info for local driver, and scooter/bike rental places.
Guest Access
Besides the room and the large private terrace, you are welcome to come have a swim in our infinity pool if we are not around (after that, we ask that you respect our family time, of which we seem to have precious little these days!). If you have kids, feel free to bounce on our in-ground trampoline or swing on our massive bamboo swing set!
Interaction with Guests
We love hosting people and will definitely welcome you. We also respect guests' privacy, so besides offering help where requested, we will leave you to enjoy your stay in peace. We try to keep our kitchen and living areas private, to ensure that hosting people remains a pleasure for our family and gives guests the chance to do what they came to Bali for-- to rest deeply and enjoy the magic of Ubud. That said, the kids are always up for playing with new friends, so don't be too shy!
The Neighborhood
Kutuh Kaja is a quiet, tree-lined village surrounded by rice-fields and river gorges. Our house is just 1.5 kilometres north of the main rd in Ubud, where you will find an abundance of restaurants, shops and activities.
Getting Around
Ubud has no public transport or registered taxi service, although there are a number of private drivers on call. Your 'welcome pack' has the telephone numbers of 2-3 that we have worked with for a long time and can recommend.
Renting a scooter is by far the most convenient way to get around Ubud, and a lot of fun! We can have a scooter delivered from the rental place, at around $4-5 a day.
Other Things to Note
We have two pets, a gloden-doodle dog named Luna (security) and a cat named Boots (our resident critter-controller). Both are very friendly and, if you like animals, will likely come up for a pet or a lap-stroke while you are on the terrace! They are both great with kids.
Bali is Bali.... so as much as we would like to ensure that you have the perfect experience while you are with us, the elements don't always agree with us. Wacky weather and poorly managed civic services mean that power-outages and minor dysfunctions of the house do happen on occasion-- it's all part of living in the tropics. We do our best to solve problems as soon as they occur, and pray for your grace and good humour while we get things back on track!
There are no telephone lines or TV available to you in the room, but we have a local mobile phone which you can use while you stay with us. WIFI is available, but not especially fast, so if you need to download a lot its best to go to HUBUD.
We are grateful if you:
Please don't smoke inside the room, (you can smoke on the large terrace) of the gladak).
Please respect our privacy by restricting your access to the main house and pool to times when our family is not at home.

Your Host
We are from Canada, and have been working our way around the world... first with the UN and now in social enterprise.
We have two 'third culture kids' who attend the Green School because we believe in sustainability, global leadership and community.
Our style of hosting is simple: we set you up with everything you need in our "Welcome Pack' (local phone numbers, activities, restaurant suggestions) and hope you will enjoy the adventure of getting to know Bali on your own... which is sometimes smooth as silver.... and other times, a little rocky. Ubud is a magical place with lots of opportunity to eat, live and learn well.
We especially welcome guests from exotic places and families with small children who like to play!
