OIG Workers Compensation 'Fraud' Campaign
Who's scamming who?
The USPS Office of Inspector General recently launched a "Workers' Compensation Fraud Campaign." In typical OIG fashion, one of its strategies involves demonizing injured workers by having an actor posing as a postal employee cheerfully brag about cheating the Workers' Comp program.
No one, of course, should be permitted to cheat the injury-compensation system. The system exists to provide benefits to employees who have sustained legitimate injuries while on duty. But OIG ignores the fact that less than 0.3 percent of the tens of thousands of Postal Service employees who get hurt while on the job are ever found guilty of defrauding the system. In fact, OIG's most recent semi-annual report acknowledges that they had arrested only 18 people for claimant fraud. It's simply unwarranted and unacceptable for the OIG to create a national campaign that smears injured workers by implying that so many are trying to scam the system.
One has to wonder whether it's the OIG itself that is guilty of scamming the USPS . In Fiscal Year 2009, the OIG was appropriated $239.3 million in Postal Service funds from which, at its own admission, OIG "commits significant resources toward identifying claimants who defraud the system."With well over 99 percent of the injured workforce proving to be honest and lawful regarding Workers' Comp, how can OIG — an agency that is also responsible for combating waste and abuse — be exonerated from the very obligations it is commissioned to uphold?
Protect Yourself
Workers' compensation fraud is a serious crime. Admission of guilt and actually being found guilty are one and the same: Offenders are branded as criminals.
Upon conviction, offenders are subject to repayment of benefits, fines, jail time in a federal facility, and removal. All too often, it is a simple lack of understanding as to what constitutes fraud that can place an employee in peril. So, as the OIG presses on in its campaign against injured workers, it is important to remember that the medical restrictions that apply at work also apply during personal life, i.e., at home, while shopping, driving, taking care of personal and family matters, and during recreational activities. The rule of thumb is that if you can't do it at work, you can't do it anywhere.
It is also important to remind employees to work within their restrictions. If physical capabilities have improved or worsened, employees should get their doctors to document the change in restrictions. Additionally, doctors who permit activities for therapeutic reasons should also include this information — along with the treatment rationale — in the employee's medical record.
Disclosure and Your Rights
Treating physicians should be made aware that they are not required to disclose any information regarding a medical condition to OIG agents unless there is a court order requiring such disclosure.
If confronted by OIG agents, it is important for employees to know their rights. Many agents are on a mission to prove their worth, and they can be conniving. Employees are entitled to have a representative present and should remain silent until they have consulted with their steward or legal counsel — even when they are certain they aren't guilty of any wrongdoing.
During investigatory interviews, union representatives may attempt to clarify facts and information, ask the purpose of an interview, or help an employee articulate a response or explanation.
When there are legal issues that need to be addressed, and/or an employee is the subject of a criminal investigation, it is absolutely appropriate for the employee to remain silent and to decline to sign any statements or fill out any forms until after legal counsel has been consulted.
APWU Industrial Relations Director Greg Bell has written two very informative articles detailing the rights of employees when they are confronted by Postal Inspectors or OIG agents. The articles first appeared in the Nov./Dec.2005 and May/June 2006 issues of this magazine and can be found in their entirety on the Industrial Relations Web pages.

That is how the PO spends money. How about those flat sorting machines. I bet they are going to save money there?
i think the postal service is trying to warn the employees who are being excessed to be honest and not fake an injury so they won't have to be excessed..the ad wants employees to tell on the faking injuried co-worker. this is such a crock. i do not think an employee will tell an other employee that they are faking an injury.
The OIG and the Postal Service do everything they can to promote hate for those injured on the job. That helps to keep workers with legitamate claims from filling out a claim. It also makes injured workers get unfair treatment at work by both bosses and fellow workers. Too bad the injured workers can't file a class action lawsuit against the OIG and the Postal Service. Injured workers suffer every hour of every day, not just the 8 hours at work.
Let's consider the employee's injured for years & years while the people with dignity carry the load day in and day out. No doubt, people can be injured at work. However, for how long ? Professional athletes return after surgurys, why not some of our people ? Wake up ! no more fat in our orginazation. If it were your business would you like paying some of these claims and medical cost, while someone is sitting around answering your business phone. We need people to work safe and do what they were hired to do. Ask the 10-12% unemployed people across the country their opinion?????
those athletes are not denied coverage like owcp does. they also get full pay which is a hell of a lot more than i make. they don't have to wait months to be paid.i am injured and going through a 3rd operation because i was doing my job. i do answer the phone because my bosses think that job is beneath them. my post master said answering the phone is not productive. if i don't answer it who will, they don't, when they do all they do is bitch.
Ace, have you not heard of an athlete retiring due to injury? It happens all the time. They get paid big bucks while they play partly because of that chance. The Post Office cut over 2 hours off of my route after I got hurt. They knew it was too heavy. I've had surgery, but I will spend the rest of my life in pain. I worked hard and I did my best to work safe. I have a permanent injury. I finished out my career on limited duty. Thanks to the OIG's and the Post Office campain to make everyone think that everyone that is injured is some kind of thief, it's not so great being a "rehab". Do some real work Ace and see how your dignity is when you have to ask your wife to lift anything heavy. We are not hurt because you were carrying the load. Apparantly we were. And we are hurt 24/7 not just the 8 hours at work.
Fed up & Kevin
Maybe your injuries are what you say……….However, Ive seen it all in New England………..Dr. Winteroff right after collecting those X-mas tips. Healthy when the golf season rolls around. Why the need for OIG investigations, there you go. Worry not about being investigated if you are truely injured. The golden goose is running out of eggs…………..
Let's get back to the no work-no pay theory This country was not founded by a bunch of wimpy people that thought of excuses why they couldn't work. For the few that are NOT trying to scam the system you can blame the ones that are. You'd be amazed at what people can do if they HAVE TO! Same as the lazy bums that sit on their butt all winter and collecting unemployment when they COULD be working. It's time for this PATHETIC socialism to END!!
GOP and ACE, I'm sure you two would not have a problem with not being paid if you got injured no matter how long you were out, right? You talk about all the whiners and complainers. Pay attention and stop grand standing!! Did you read this sentence:
"But OIG ignores the fact that less than 0.3 percent of the tens of thousands of Postal Service employees who get hurt while on the job are ever found guilty of defrauding the system.
Oh that's right, it doesn't fit in with your right-wing, conservative, anti-worker, Palinesque philosphy. People like YOU are ruining this country with your selfish, greedy, I got mine, screw everyone else attitudes. You probably call yourself a Christian because you go to church on Sunday. Maybe you need to remember to have a Christian attitude all week. Compassion and sympathy are not socialist ideals, no matter what the Anti-Obama fascists say. I don't know who you are, but I'd guess your both just a couple of lard asses sitting behind desks with nothing better to do than insult and belittle people who sacrificed their health to keep a poorly managed company running. Do I sound angry? you bet I am. I've seen good people made to suffer at the hands of the OIG and management because they had the nerve to get injured at work, and I'm sick and tired of people like you putting them down.
It is unfair that those with legitimate claims cannot sue the post office and the superiors that made life hell for them. What I wonder can be done when you are fired for them lying and looking for any reason to fire you just because you were hurt, Nothing is be done when you cannot find a doctor to treat you because of omitted info so that your acceptable claim will only cover what they indicate. You get the run around and seems there is no one to help you so they get away with wronging honest individuals that have a valid claim and left to suffer physically with no help. I have little regard for the honesty for the post office and the governing agency that is suppose to protect your rights. There is nothing you can do but wait and hope some day that something will be done. You are treated badly and like you have betrayed the post office if you don't work injured.
Our gov. seem to be the biggest abusers of the system, American with Diaability Act.(ADA) There is not a private co. that could exist in this country if they treated their employee's like the gov does after an injury. Injured workers are intitled to reasonable accomadation. If our gov agencys would work together and combine agency vacent jobs . This would alimate anyone from sitting around doing nothing.This would do wonders, keeping fraud down. How ever, as a federal injured worker myself, I find managment unwilling to even engage in finding reasonable work . I have begged for work for years., they refuse any ideas I come up with. The gov. agencys are by LAW suppose to provide accomadtion. Title 7 of the ADA, check it out! How dishonest of our goverment, pressuring workers into filing claims with their private insurance co. Making all of us bare the finincal burden of higher insurance premiums. Why not do away with work comp?
I like the idea of a class action against the OIG and DOL, I was severly injured in 2006. The action of the original injury resulted in a chronic disease. I went to 5 orthepdists, 2 Nuerologists and a few other Dr.'s. The DOL would not raise my levels of disability even though I had MRI's and EMG's to prove the progressive nature. My Neurologist wrote a ten page report stateing this was going to happen and the injury was definetly due to the original accident at work. I live in the USVI, we have no good Dr's here. I have to fly to the states at my own expense just to get MRI's and other tests done. Luckilly I finally got my SSD and OPM Disability retirement. I took the PO a year after I got my SSD to finalize my retirement. The DOL said they would not pay for any of medical last year. I now have Medicare and my Federal coverage. This year long delay has cost me in Pain. I am suing the Postal Service for 5 different labor violations and my injury. Who said you can't sue the gov. It takes a long time but it can be done, I would like to get a bunch empoyees that this type of thing has happened to and file class actions. We will need a good labor attorney if anyone knows one.
You conservatives love to take these lofty stands until you have to apply them to your own lives. If you were injured on the job you'd be screaming for "Your American right to be treated fairly" (conservispeak for compensated) louder than anyone.
Hypocrisy just seems to be a part of the conservative psyche – you know, like 'drill, baby, drill'; but now that there's a disaster it's the president's fault because he can't come up with a magic solution to cleanup your mess.
Then there's also that Superconservative who moved Hell and Earth to avoid putting his life on the line for this country, but now wants to lecture Americans on our military responsibilities. What's his name? That hard fightin' commando, Dick Cheney.
With all of the problems that you conservatives have caused this country, you should have to pay a fee every time you open your mouths.
To all those who have been abused over and over by the gov. Just because you were injured at work, SEE glover/albrecht v. us postal service. You to can sue the gov. it just takes time.
I have read a majority of the statements left here aswell.I can relate much to what alot of you are complaining about also.Seeming as if the Postal Service Management athority has no bounds.Expecting injured employess to give 110 percent of their blood,sweat and tears to an organization whom's check stub PLAINLY states OUR WAGES Are paid to US by OUR CUSTOMERS.
I think managers believe that just because we punch a time clock and they are on Salary we should not have any Rights to file any paper work whatsoever.WHAT IS A 3849 FOR? AMUSEMENT obviously.THEY do not have a GOOD UNION.An office is only as Good as the LOCAL AGREEMENT signed by all PARTIES.
Let US also speak of their retirement Insurance PROGRAM.lol.and their PRIVACTY ACTS HIPPA laws .GOOD OLE,OLE POSTAL SERVICE.USHERING everybody around with THeir HAPPY FEET and TROLLING around TOWN like THEY OWN IT SO FLAUNT IT.lol

Although technology has offered what should be a more convenient retail outlet, skincare shopping still ideally demands an experiential approach. Whether interacting with a trained specialist, sampling products in-store or indulging in a spa treatment, the selection process benefits from hands-on experimentation. But with the industry's rapidly expanding options, the wide selection of product choices has been met with equally varied channels for purchasing them. Beyond traditional department store shopping, buyers are now met with freestanding concept boutiques, day spas and, of course, online networks. As a result, the growing market of products and seemingly infinite avenues for acquisition have turned skincare shopping into an overwhelming—and at times misleading—endeavor.
So where does one turn in this terribly confusing, rapidly evolving world of skincare? In this edition of Beauty Guru, we explore companies that have an outstanding brand philosophy as well as stand-out products in what is clearly an enormously competitive industry. Each product mentioned has also been thoroughly tested in order to provide the most objective and factual details and information. Most importantly, however, each brand should be individually recognized for creating highly effective formulations as well as for providing a satisfying and fulfilling experience whether online, in the retail arena or at a spa.
Natural Collagen Inventia
Natural Collagen Inventia is perhaps one of the most impressive and thoroughly effective product lines to boast the term "age-defying." Utilizing a highly guarded proprietary process, it is derived from the skins of specially selected planktonophagous fish, which create a live collagen that's compatible with human DNA and therefore allows for the most thorough absorption. The straightforward line consists of day and night creams, an under-eye elixir and the Nano Gold Crystal Mask. As its name suggests, the latter employs a nano gold particle that's 1/2000th the size of a pore in order to easily penetrate the dermal layer. Developed exclusively by Inventia, it has been clinically proven to facilitate the production of collagen as well as aid in fighting free-radicals.
Kate Somerville
Kate Somerville delivers highly effective products that address every possible skincare issue—from acne to anti-aging—while maintaining a noteworthy presence in several retail arenas. Between her numerous live appearances on QVC as well as at several upscale department stores throughout the US, Somerville can also regularly be found at her flagship day spa in West Hollywood, where legions of fans flock to experience some of the best signature facial treatments available anywhere. Based around Somerville's "Skin Health Pyramid" brand philosophy, her products and treatments uniquely address individual skincare needs as well as individuals' shopping desires. The 360° Tanning Towelettes for face and body are extremely popular (and rather useful as we approach the warm weather months), while the Exfoli-Kate, Line-Release under eye cream and Beauty Guru's favorite Quench Hydrating Face Serum are absolute must-have items.
Lierac Initiatic
Recognized as France's anti-aging experts, Lierac was founded in 1975 by Dr. Leon Cariel before later being acquired by botanical hair product guru/Phyto founder Patrick Alès. The two most recent additions to the rather extensive Lierac range are the Initiatic Cream and Fluid For The First Signs Of Aging, specifically developed to meet the needs of women ages 30 and over. The rich but light formulations utilize Lierac's exclusive Bio-Botanical Complex, which consists of a high-tech peptide and goji fruit extract for thorough hydration. The Initiatic products are ideal for someone with very dehydrated skin and who perhaps doesn't wish to follow a complete regime. Regardless, the products are both highly effective and have a light berry scent that's extremely refreshing.
Liz Earle
Without any previous presence in the market, Liz Earle's line of natural products completely sold out on its opening day when it was first featured on QVC in 1996. For any brand to survive such initial and instantaneous success would be a foreseeable challenge, but the label continues to evolve while also maintaining its philosophy for creating the most straightforward, yet highly effective natural products. Today, Liz Earle is a thriving lifestyle brand that boasts a full range of skincare for men and women, including aromatherapy products, haircare, fragrance and sun-care as well as three retail venues in the UK. The Instant Boost Skin Tonic Spritzer and Light Moisturizer in particular receive top marks, and the Nourishing Botanical Body Cream is perhaps one of the most effective in its category. Highly absorbent, extremely hydrating and the scent is divine!
Somme Institute
Comprised of a highly advanced team of researchers and leading dermatologists, the Somme Institute was formed with the sole purpose of creating and developing a complete range of extremely effective anti-aging skincare products. Utilizing advanced UV technology to photograph the dermal and sub-dermal damage of over 5,000 subjects spanning a period of seven years, the brand's researchers were able to develop a highly sophisticated (and exclusive) proprietary technology known as Molecular Dispersion Technology 5 (MDT5). The line consists of a very simple five-step regimen of products enriched with Somme's revolutionary protein/vitamin delivery system to effectively help renew and repair aging, sun-damaged skin. The range works most effectively when used as a complete regimen and is ideal for anyone who has perhaps had a few too many summers on the beach. These products are extremely effective, easy to use and deliver great results—and the whimsical packaging is rather pleasing to the eye. Check out the Somme Institute's website for informative/educational video footage as well as product information.
Final Notes:
When searching for new products, a good bit of advice is to not only exercise a certain amount of self-discipline and perhaps do a little research, but to primarily focus on specific and individual needs. Try not to be swayed by any unnecessary product sales techniques and instead concentrate on the products that truly pertain to a specific personal requirement. The effects of any product are often more noticeable after a few days, so trial-sized kits are often a good and cost-effective approach—not to mention ideal for travel.
Lastly, it is important to know the basic function of any product as well as understand how to properly apply and use it. This is especially true for eye creams and exfoliants. Never use any product that doesn't make a significant improvement in the condition or appearance of your skin.

A writing interns told me recently that every writing job she submitted a resume required digital writing skills. Skills such as search engine optimization, social media marketing, blogging, posting, and commenting. English majors graduating this year will find it hard to get a job outside of academia without these practical skills of digital writing. New media (social media) and the total-access environment of the Web has caused everyone to write more. Everyone can write online, but not all online writing is purposeful and powerful enough to get noticed. If you are writing online, you want to get noticed. The way to write for attention is to combine new media with solid writing and classical rhetoric. Digital rhetoric, relatively new term, combines these two practices and stands above the crowd. What's the point of writing content if it is not read. Being a digital rhetorician will help writing stand out and make writers more marketable in today's job market. There are writing jobs for writers who can adapt to the digital environment.
The National Writing Project published the perfectly titled book Digital Writing Matters. It matters in part because we are writing more than ever before. According to the authors of Digital Writing Matters, we live in a participatory culture that requires involvement an many levels. Digital rhetoric also matters because even in a difficult economy, jobs in new media marketing are increasing in salary and in number. Shan Li of the Los Angeles times says, "No one knows exactly how many social media jobs exist, but a quick scan of online recruitment sites shows a bounty of businesses looking to hire." More employers are hiring marketers or writers with skills to reach a niche audience through social media and new media channels. At some point, this skill will become part of the job descriptions of most professionals.
Digital rhetoric matters for employment, but it also matters for education. According to Elizabeth Losh, the Writing Director of the Humanities Core Course at U.C. Irvine, there is extended value of using digital rhetoric for pedagogy. Often what is taught in the university eventually finds its way into practice and areas one has never considered. Losh illustrates this point when she points to the astronauts who lost their lives in the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster, they might have been spared if data sharing had been a practice at NASA at that time. Indeed, digital rhetoric can influence education, the work place, the political arena to produce social and economic change.
Finally, digital rhetoric matters because the world changes every sixty seconds.
An info graph illustrates what happens in sixty-seconds on Social Media:
- Pinterest, the newest social media channel, has 1090 visitors.
- Linked In has logged 7,610 searches.
- Twitter posts 175,000 tweets.
- Facebook sends 700,000 messages
YouTube plays 2 million videos.
Each of these social media platforms requires digital writing - even better - digital rhetoric. Writing in the digital environment will improve if digital writers become digital rhetoricians. Brian Carroll, in Writing for Digital Media, suggests that digital rhetoric is about writing "clearly, precisely, accurately, with energy and voice, and for specific audiences." He continues, "[f]ortunately good writing is valued online, and unfortunately it is still just as hard to find good writing online as it is in print" Writing jobs today require skill and digital writing experience. With time and practice writers will become digital rhetoricians.

Sophomore All-American Erynne Lee won the individual title and UCLA captured the team trophy Wednesday in the 18th Northrup Grumman Regional Challenge at the Palos Verdes Golf Club.
Thirty-seventh ranked UCLA, bolstered by the return of senior All-American Tiffany Lua, remained steady on the closing holes and beat top-ranked USC by nine shots. The teams swapped places on the leaderboard throughout the first nine, but the determined Bruins outplayed the Trojans by seven shots on the last nine holes.
The Bruins finished with a 54-hole score of 870 (+18) after posting a final round score of 291 (+7). USC, the 36-hole leader, finished at 879 (+27) after recording a score of 301 (+17). Fourth-ranked Duke captured third place at 881 (+29), followed by Texas at 890 (+38) and No. 3 Florida at 892 (+40).
Lee, tied with Oklahoma State's Kelsey Vines at one-over par on the finishing holes, birdied her 18th hole (No. 1 on the course) to secure the overall lead. On Wednesday, she played her inward nine in two-under par, carded a final round score of 69 (-2), picked up her second collegiate victory and celebrated her 20th birthday. She finished with an even par score of 213, one shot ahead of the fourth-ranked Vines.
"I didn't know I was tied for the lead," said Lee, who was ranked ninth nationally entering the tournament. "When I made the putt, coach (Forsyth) and (assistant coach) Alicia (Um Holmes) came running up to congratulate me.
Lee recounted the final hole: "I hit a driver to the right side of the fairway and had about 120 yards uphill to the pin. I hit a 9-iron and had a five-foot slider (for birdie). I just wanted to end the round on a good note."
Lua, sidelined last Fall with a wrist injury, and senior All-American Lee Lopez tied for fifth place at 218 (+5). Both golfers also played their final nine holes in even par. On Wednesday, Lopez posted a 72 (+1) and Lua finished with a 74 (+3).
Freshman Louise Ridderstrom tied for 15th place at 222 (+9) after carding a score of 76 (+5) in the final round and junior Ani Gulugian tied for 25th at 225 (+12). Freshman Jacquie LeMarr, playing as an individual, tied for 71st.
The team title was the 48th for Hall of Fame Coach Carrie Forsyth, and first of the season for the Bruins. Under Forsyth's leadership, UCLA has won the Regional Challenge four times, including twice in a row. Two UCLA players - Lee and Charlotte Mayorkas (2004) - have won the individual title.
"We were pretty motivated this week," said Forsyth. "We know the truth about our Fall (performance) and we know we're better than our ranking. It was great to see the girls go out and win and play so well. I'm very proud of them."

Khloe Kardashian may not have much romance in her life these days, but she isn't about to sit and home and be sad over her failed marriage on Valentine's Day. She couldn't get her marriage to work, but she has been spending lots of time with family and friends in hopes of moving on from it all. According to a new Wetpaint Entertainment report published on Feb. 5, Khloe Kardashian's friends are now revealing her Valentine's Day plans since she is a single lady.
Even though she has been linked to both Matt Kemp and The Game since filing for divorce, she won't be spending that special day with either of them. In fact, she just wants to move on from her failed marriage. "She doesn't want to stay in a negative place and is working on forgiving herself and Lamar for everything that went wrong," a source has revealed. She wants to focus on being happy herself, not on finding romance.
"She is convinced that everything happens for a reason and that if she stays loving and open, she will meet the right person. She is just taking care of herself and spending quality time with family and the little ones," says the pal. "Valentine's for her is about love, not necessarily romantic love. She's all about loving herself right now, and treating herself like a princess, instead of waiting for a guy to do it."
What do you think of her plans?

The India versus England Test series has come at the height of the festive season and you can expect some tantalizing moments in the longer format of the game. For the Indians, sans Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman, this will be their first big test at home and England will fancy their chances for sure. After a long time this England team looks a formidable lot. So any predication that India will wipe them out 4-nil is being a little overambitious. While I am not willing to predict a scoreline, England will be a difficult team to beat and the visitors have already showed their intentions in the warm-up games in Mumbai and Ahmedabad. England have a talented middle-order with Alistair Cook, Kevin Pietersen and Jonathan Trott being the mainstay. And a quality spinner like Graeme Swann and a hard-working seamer like James Anderson give them the balance they need on Indian wickets. The presence of Mushtaq Ahmed will stand England in good stead. Mushy has been with the English team for the last six years and the former Pakistan leg-spinner has built a good bowling unit. He has not only been a mentor to the English spinners but has also taught the seamers the nuances of reverse spin, which will be very handy on Indian pitches. So Duncan Fletcher and MS Dhoni will have to chalk out a strategy to counter the reverse swing which comes into effect just after 10 or 15 overs with the SG ball. In the absence of Dravid and Laxman, the onus will be on Virat Kohli. Of course, its early to compare him to Dravid but he certainly has the talent and the ability to take on any bowling attack in the world. It will be interesting to see how Kohli copes with the pressure of getting runs in every game as Team India will be heavily relying on him. Another batsman who can play a vital role is Yuvraj Singh. It was absolutely apt to pick Yuvraj in the Test team. He has made a good comeback after his illness and has been getting runs for India and also in Ranji Trophy. The double-hundred in Ranji will give him a lot of confidence. The left-hander will also be a handy bowling option for Dhoni. He can turn the ball well on Indian decks and that will give Dhoni more bowling options. As far as spinners are concerned, I dont really know what combination the Indian think-tank will pick for the first Test in Ahmedabad. All spinners are experienced and are very dangerous in home conditions. Harbhajan Singh, Ravichandran Ashwin and Pragyan Ojha can be quite a handful and with Yuvi being the non-regular option, the Indian spin attack is quite a force. England, of course, will be heavily relying on Swann, who has been in tremendous form. Having bagged 192 wickets in 46 Tests, the off-spinner doesnt have the doosra but his variation with pace is tremendous. He will be a big threat to the Indian batsmen. I firmly believe the team with the better batting will clinch the series. Both teams have the experience to handle panic situations and that will make the series more interesting. And if the warm-up games are anything to go by, England have showed the gumption of taking the fight into the Indian camp. I am certainly impressed with the planning of the England and Wales Cricket Board. England have been in India for a good two weeks, enough time to acclimatize and get ready for big series like this. I think our cricket Boards BCCI and PCB should take a leaf out of ECBs books when they plan their next overseas tour. I am sure everyone remembers how India went underprepared to England in 2011 only to be whitewashed 4-0. The media is hyping up the series as revenge series. Whatever it might be, the true fans must come to watch some quality cricket. Thats the only way they can keep Test cricket alive and kicking.

Love these images! Halloween may not have been very popular in Aus the past, but it's growing. I couldn't believe how well received our Halloween party was (I think we may have started a new local following!).

-I thought this was a question about germinating seeds- not planting out???
Sorry but you cant let rabbits roam free and have a garden -the two just don't mix.
They are best kept confined to a hutch and a run or forget about a garden and grass the lot
I love stinky lilies
A field of corn has been set on fire,a barley field has been sprayed with weedkiller and someone has blown up the sugar puffs factory
Police fear this may be the work of a cereal killer
Any chance of a picture??

weeds out of control because not many people actually look after their gardens so many of us have to suffer endless back breaking clearing if every body looked after their gardens there wouldn't be millions of seeds flotting around.
True -but we are not living in a sterile world-birds spread seeds about as well -it is just something you live with.
I am taking echinacea for my schizostylis.
I have been putting weetabix in my ears-I don't think I am eating properly
They are too small to plant out now-it would be advisable to leave it till next spring-they are hardy but protect the pots from freezing temperatures
Slugs were out and about in numbers this morning.
Noooooo-not chicken !!!-I am going to buy some live ones tomorrow- how can I break it to them that there are people that eat their relatives?
Nasi Goreng-think it has chicken in it

Thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease) has been defined as a segmental, inflammatory, occlusive disease which primarily affects small or medium-sized arteries and veins in the extremities of young adults, usually males (1). The most frequent clinical manifestation of thromboangiitis obliterans is ischemia of one or both feet with greatly diminished or absent pedal pulsations; the proximal arterial pulsations are usually normal during the early stages of the disease. There is often evidence of ischemia of one or more fingers, and episodes of recurrent segmental thrombophlebitis of superficial nonvaricose veins of the extremities may occur.

DamNation – Free-Flowing Again
A little over a year ago, a 125-foot-tall dam stood in Washington's White Salmon River, a concrete plug with a serene reservoir at its back and a trickle of river spilling out downstream.
But it's hard to tell that today.
The Condit Hydroelectric Dam, which was built in the early 1900s to harness the energy of the White Salmon for local industry, was blasted into the history books in October 2011 with 700 pounds of carefully placed dynamite.
The explosion, part of a phased project orchestrated by dam operator Pacificorp as an alternative to building costly fish passages, released the White Salmon River in a torrent of muddy water, debris and sediment, draining Northwestern Lake in less than two hours and freeing the river for the first time in almost a century.
Since that time, demolition crews have completed the removal of some 35,000 cubic yards of concrete, as well as logjams and other debris in the river.
And when public-access restrictions were lifted in early November, a group of boaters, river activists, biologists, rafting guides and kayakers converged for a historic float.
[Above: Washington's White Salmon river was officially opened to boaters this month after the removal of the Condit Dam, and spawning salmon have already been spotted upstream for the first time in a century. Photos by Ben Knight/DamNation]

Photos By Duncan Macfarlane
Duncan Macfarlane is one of two new senior photographer hires for us this year. Last year, Duncan was awarded the grand prize of the Follow The Light Foundation Photography Contest — a top notch honor in our little community for the best up and coming surf photographer. For the last two months, Duncan has been hard to track down. Sketchy connections via Twitter, missed Facebook messages and emails written in cryptic Aussie slang have made his whereabouts unknown. Last we heard, he was working on a top secret project with Billabong. If you have seen Duncan please let us know. We are worried about him. But from the looks of these photos, he might just be ok.
Jack Freestone looks punk in this image. Maybe it's the black/hair toothpick combo. Maybe it's the contradiction with Rasta's whale tatt in the lower left frame. You decide.

Polly Ann Ice Cream Restaurant Review: Judging by the loopy signs in the window and the promise of free ice cream cones for dogs, the generous owner has a sense of fun. Polly Ann plays with exotic flavors---taro, red bean and avocado---and sometimes they're just right. Try Sabra, for example, a chocolate-orange ice cream.

Jennifer Lawrence and boyfriend Nicholas Hoult were adorable at the Golden Globes. Just Jared shared photos of the "Hunger Games" star and her beau on Jan. 13.
In one photo Lawrence and Hoult are kissing. Her hands are on the sides of his face, while his are on her waist.
Lawrence won a Golden Globe for "American Hustle." Hoult helped her carry it at one point during the evening.
The winner must have gotten chilly at some point. Nicholas lent Jennifer his jacket to wear over her strapless gown. What a gentleman!
It was nice to see this sweet moments captured on film, especially since the pair spent some time broken up. Their relationship sure seems strong now.
Lawrence also took an opportunity to photobomb Taylor Swift. Swift was being interviewed when Jennifer snuck behind her, making a wacky face. This isn't the first time J-Law has photobombed a fellow celebrity. It's become kind of her thing.
Do you think Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult were the cutest couple of the night?

Dita Von Teese has long dazzled us with her burlesque numbers, but the thing that stands out the most about this glorious woman is her inevitable retro style. Her signature black-as-night locks are always coifed to perfection, leaving us deep green with envy. While we may not be able to master our mane quite as well as she can, there is one thing we can do to pay homage to the stylemaker: red lips. The MAC Viva Glam Lipstick ($14) in Russian Red is the perfect cherry red to make our pucker pop. Miss Von Teese even serves as a spokeswoman for the cosmetic line, which gives new meaning to the term "lip service".
This is not a Viva Glam lipstick. Viva Glam lipsticks have numerical names as in Viva Glam I, Viva Glam II etc.

Hartland Landfill & Recycling Facility
garbage, garden waste, recycling, reusables, and hazardous waste
Commercial Pickup
It is estimated that 30% of garbage collected from Saanich residents will be diverted from the Hartland landfill through our kitchen scraps recycling program. As an added bonus, yard trimmings can also be added to the Organics Recycling cart. You can help make this pickup safer and more efficient if you follow some general guidelines.
Frequency -- Organics Recycling and Garbage waste are collected separately on the same day once every 2 weeks.
Curbside Cart Placement --Residents are required to bring their carts curbside by 7am on their collection day. Placement is very important as the truck's mechanical arm needs room to pick up and empty your carts. Ensure you leave space all around your carts without impeding travel lanes (sidewalks, cycling lane or the roadway) and away from obstacles such as cars, poles, and utility boxes. Below are examples of proper cart placement:
Please stay within limits. Residents can choose the size of carts that would best meet their household needs. Saanich will provide households with two wheeled regulation carts, one for organics recycling and one for garbage. All material must fit inside the carts with the lids closed free of obstruction.
Kitchen Waste Bags. Only certified compostable bags will be accepted. Plastic or biodegradable bags shall not be used to dispose of kitchen scraps or collect your Organics Recycling. No non-compostable items shall be placed in the organics recycling cart.
Bag loose material. To help prevent litter blowing around, please bag loose material in your Garbage Cart. Extra care should be taken with sawdust, kitty litter, and vacuum cleaner dust.
Wrap sharp objects. Please ensure all sharp objects are wrapped safely. Broken glass and hypodermic needles must be in a puncture proof container.
Keep collection area clean. Please keep your collection area clean and accessible, and clear snow and ice if required.
Keep the collection area accessible. Carts must be curbside by 7:00am, spaced at least 1 meter apart on all sides and free from any obstacles.
Hazardous waste, including excreta, liquids, tires, drywall, metals, animal bodies or parts and hypodermic needles (unless in a puncture proof container) will NOT be accepted.
CRD 'Blue Box" recyclables will NOT be accepted (i.e., glass, tin, non-food soiled newsprint, non-food soiled cardboard, etc.).
Special Pick Up Service
Extra garbage or yard trimmings (not co-mingled with kitchen scraps) pick up (non-recyclable items) will be collected on a call in basis. The cost is $50 per cubic metre (minimum $50) and is for residential use only. To arrange for a special pickup call 250-475-5595.
Extra Garbage and Stickers
Extra bags of garbage will be collected with a proof of payment sticker, issued by the Corporation, affixed to the bag. Each extra bag of garbage shall not exceed 25kg. Residential stickers are currently $3 per bag and bags can be placed curbside with your regulation cart for collection. Stickers only apply extra garbage and not to extra organic recycling. Stickers can be purchased at the Saanich Municipal Hall, Saanich Public Works Yard or any of the Saanich Recreation Centres.
Extra Yard Trimmings
Residents can use the Public Works Garden Recycling Drop-Off (1040 McKenzie Avenue) to dispose of excess Yard Trimmings. No kitchen waste or co-mingled Yard Trimmings will be accepted. Commercial use is prohibited.
Paint Cans
Effective July 1, 2012 paint cans were no longer accepted at the Public Works Yard. Paint recycling depots are located at the Hartland Recycling Facility (#1 Hartland Rd, Victoria), Ellice Recycle (516 David St, Victoria), Baywest Hardware (220 Bay St, Victoria), Rona Home & Garden (850 Langford Pkwy, Langford) and Alpine Disposal and Recycling (1045 Dunford Ave, Langford). Check the BC Product Stewardship Program for additional information for recycling paint and other household hazardous waste (www.productcare.org).
Garbage Drop-Off
For disposal of extra garbage, please go to Hartland Landfill at #1 Hartland Avenue, (turn left off West Saanich Road) or Ellice Recycle at 524 David Street.
BC's Return-It Electronics Program
To support BC's Return-It Electronics Program, Saanich will be restricting the following items from the residential collection stream and the Saturday garbage drop-off: desktop computers, computer monitors, notebook computers, televisions, desktop printers and fax machines. For further drop-off location information, please visit www.crd.bc.ca or www.electronicsrecyclingbc.ca.
Litter Control Program
Solid Waste Services Litter Control Program operates year round. This program is responsible for the cleaning and the maintenance of 98 bus shelters, as well this program empties the municipality's 310 litter bins.
A large part of the program's responsibility is the clean up of illegal dumping. This takes the form of roadside litter and the pick up of large abandoned materials.
If you see a bus shelter that is damaged or in need of cleaning, a litter bin, or an area that needs litter cleaned up, please call us at 250-475-5595.

Our bottom-line growth reflected higher sales, including mid-single digit comparable sales growth, a solid gross margin rate, continued disciplined management of expenses, as well as the benefit of share repurchase activity."
For the fiscal fourth quarter of 2013, Ann Inc. expects total net sales to be $640 million, reflecting a total company same-store sales increase in the mid-single digits. Ann Inc. expects fiscal 2013 total net sales to be $2.51 billion, reflecting a total company same-store sales increase in the low-to-mid-single digits.

Reading can be either a very rewarding experience or a very challenging affair for children. It is important that parents lay down the foundation for the enjoyment of reading early on in a child's life, so that the reading experience develops into a rewarding one. Even though Dr. James Zull, director of the Center for Innovation in Teaching and Education, says " Neurobiology has no educational philosophy, and that is a good thing," certain key concepts present in progressive education are supported by neurobiology. According to progressive educational theory, positive experiential learning is a key to help a child learn. Neurobiology suggests that learning is the building of neuronal networks that fire together and create an impression of the new thing learned. If it's a positive experience, learning continues; if not, learning is hindered.
For example, for the majority of folks, the neural network or connections for ice cream, fire off with the neural connections for cold, as well as for sweet, and with the neural connections for fun times with mom and dad or neighborhood kids. All these neural networks firing together make for a positive experience in eating ice cream. If the "fun" network were absent, the experience would be negative and a child's association to ice cream would end up triggering a not-so-happy experience, which would lead to fear, which preps the brain against learning, albeit in this case, about ice cream making. And, so it is with school.
As a parent or teacher (and aren't all parents, teachers?), in order to increase retention of information, connecting pleasure with academic activities is imperative to preserve a child's enthusiasm for learning. Connecting reading with pleasure can be done early on by simply associating reading with happy moments. The most obvious activity is a parent reading a book or story to a child. However there is another happy memory of reading we can now give to children . . . pajama parties at the bookstore!
This summer La Canada preschools are hosting Pajama Parties at the local bookstore. The first one was hosted by the La Canada Flintridge Bookstore. Pajama clad children listened to Miss Debbie Bacino, director of La Canada Preschool, as she read various books from the store's collections. It is rumored that children enjoyed milk and cookies, as well. This was the first of four pajama parties to be held at the Flintridge Bookstore and Coffeehouse.
Tonight will be the second Pajama Party with stories being read by Miss Suzie (Suzie Johnson) , director of the Lighted Window Preschool.
The other parties will be on July 22nd with Miss Danielle from La Canana Community Preschool , and July 29th with Miss Marji from Parents and Teachers Preschool. The Flintridge Bookstore is located at:
964 Foothill Blvd
La Canada Flintridge, CA 91011-3341

Album Summary
- Aya Yoshida (Organ)
Notes & Reviews:
On Fantasy 1720, Japanese-German organist Aya Yoshida presents world premiere recordings of two completions of fragments of an organ Fantasy and a Fugue by J.S. Bach, as completed by Prof. Thomas Meyer-Fiebig, head of the Composition department at Kunitachi Graduate School of Music in Tokyo. The CD also features premieres of Meyer-Fiebig's virtuosic organ arrangements of two famous Bach violin solo compositions, including the mighty Ciaccona (Chaconne) in D Minor. This recital was recorded on the famous Jehmlich organ at the Kreuzkirche, Dresden, one of the finest concert organs built in post-war Germany.
Aya Yoshida was born in Nagoya, Japan. She moved to Germany at the age of 15 for formal training as a concert and church organist. In 1993, she was appointed Music Director of St. Paul's Church in Cologne, one of the largest catholic churches in the city. She held this post for 13 years prior to moving back to Japan in 2006, and currently teaches as a full-time lecturer at Nagoya Women's University.
American Record Guide, January/February 2013
Among Bach's organ works there are pieces that survive only as fragments. Two of these are given here in completions by Thomas Meyer-Fiebig (b 1949), a native of Bielefeld, Germany, who now heads the composition department at the Kunitachi Graduate School of Music in Tokyo. Also on the program are Meyer-Fiebig's organ arrangements of two works for unaccompanied solo violin: the Sonata in A minor (S 1004) and the Chaconne from Partita in D minor (S 1003).
Recording information: Kreuzkirche, Dresden, Germany (08/22/2011-08/24/2011).

College Hockey:Canisius settles for 2-2 tie with Queen's
BUFFALO, N.Y. — Canisius opened the 2011-12 campaign with a 2-2 draw in an exhibition matchup against Queen's University on Sunday.
"It was great to see this year's team battle and compete against a new opponent," said Canisius head coach Dave Smith. "Both teams played hard and it was exciting to see our young players get out there and gain their first experience. I'm looking forward to working on our game the next two weeks and then getting the season started in Quinnipiac."
Torrey Lindsay and Ryan Bohrer scored for the Griffs in the tie, while all three Canisius goaltenders saw action. Dan Morrison recorded six saves in the start, while Tony Capobianco stopped all 11 shots during the second period and Keegan Asmundson posted seven saves in the last 25 minutes of action.
The Gaels opened the scoring in the first period when Jonathan Lawrance netted a goal 9:06 into the contest.
Canisius answered back with their scores in the second frame. Bohrer knotted the game at one, redirecting a high shot from the point by Kyle Gibbons. The goal less than five minutes into the period was also assisted by freshman Doug Jessey.
The Griffs then took their first lead of the game with 4:17 remaining in the second stanza on Lindsay's power-play goal. Preston Shupe took the puck to the net and Lindsay then gained possession and found an opening for the 2-1 lead. Taylor Law added an assist.
Queen's brought the game back to even 4:18 into the third period. Jordan Soquila found the back of the net from the slot and the game finished in the 2-all tie.
Canisius controlled possession throughout the contest, finishing with a 40-26 advantage in shots. The Griffs' penalty kill was a perfect 3-for-3.

The Hellenbach is a vehicle in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. The Hellenbach is quite fast, accelerates quickly, and handles well. There are neon lights attached to the bottom of the Hellenbach, which light up at night.
- The name comes from the phrase "From Hell and back", which most people say about the reliability of their old beaters.

The featured artist in the second concert of this season's Young Masters Series offered by San Francisco Performances (SFP) is no stranger to San Francisco. As a former Adler Fellow, her achievements included both appearances with the San Francisco Opera (SFO) and concert recitals. For her SFP program she will be accompanied, as in past appearances here, by pianist John Parr, SFO Head of Music Staff.
That program will present a repertoire that is both diverse and adventurous. Particularly impressive will be the exercise of her command of Finnish with the performance of three songs by Jean Sibelius. The more familiar German side of her talents will include four songs by Franz Schubert and five by Richard Strauss. The program will also present two more extended compositions. The more familiar of these will be "Le Mort de Cléopâtre" (the death of Cleopatra) by Hector Berlioz. In contrast, the program will begin with Joseph Haydn's Hoboken XVIIa/10) "Scena di Berenice," a large-scale operatic scene that the composer extracted from the libretto Antigono by Pietro Metastasio.
This concert will take place at 2 p.m. on Sunday, January 26, in the Concert Hall of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music (50 Oak Street, a short walk from the Van Ness Muni station). All single tickets are available for $40. These may be purchased through the event page for the recital on the SFP Web site. SFP may be reached at 415-398-6449 for further information.

Notebooks for Students, a non-profit organization that offers discount laptops to the educational market. Until recently, only public and private schools were eligible to purchase these fully-loaded, professional/business class laptops from the major brands. But a recent change in Microsoft Education Product Policy now allows NFS to open up their inventory to individual homeschool families, as well as homeschool groups who can purchase in bulk.
Laptops run the gamut from basic to high performance, and come with a 4-year warranty, pre-installed software, a carrying case and memory stick. All laptops purchased must be for a particular student. Homeschool families can purchase from NFS as individual families or form a group for a Group Order. In both cases the families must provide their Homeschool affidavit, notice of intent or other form (depending on the State of residence) to NFS. This is required to receive the full package of Microsoft software and lower laptop costs.
Notebooks for Students is a nonprofit private operating foundation located in Carlsbad, CA, incorporated in 2011, whose mission is to address the ever-growing Digital Divide within the national student body by increasing the availability of computers to all education providers and their students. For full details please visit www.notebooksforstudents.org/homeschoollaptopdiscount.htm

Instead of trashing this old serving cart, it's owner asked Design It Girl Nicole to work her makeover magic on it. Nicole was excited to have such a unique piece to work on.
The owner wanted the cart to be turquoise, so Nicole prepped it for painting. She gave the cart a good sanding, and then applied Aquarium by Sherwin Williams. The beautiful, new color really makes the interesting details of this cart pop. The lucky owner is going to have a lot of fun with this little cart, I'm sure! (Imagine how great this will be at parties…)

Stardock CEO takes the steam out of Steam
posted: 3/10/2009 12:19:00 PM
Stardock CEO Brad Wardell has penned a nice
over at Edge.com challenging the idea that Steam is going to dominate the digital distribution marketplace forever . He looks at a few of their statistics and wonders aloud what will happen when games comes out on all platforms at the same time forcing competitors to compete on price. He makes a few valid points (I don't think Steamworks is a bad thing though) but it comes down to games and convenience. Steam has been around for a while and most of the kinks have been worked out. Steam also has the majority of my friends on it and hooking up with people to play games on the service is dead simple.
I do like Stardock's Impulse service but I really only use it to play
Sins of a Solar Empire
and the odd game of
Galactic Civilization II
and if those games were on Steam there wouldn't be much reason to fire it up. What do you think? Which services do you use and why?
