Although the European Union's medical device approval process applies uniformly across all member states, obtaining reimbursement for a medical device varies from country to country. Whether a medical device qualifies for reimbursement depends largely upon the health care policies of a particular government.
Reimbursement Consulting Services for Germany
Emergo has extensive experience with medical device reimbursement in Europe, including Germany, the EU's largest single medical device market. Our European team's expertise in navigating the complex German medical device reimbursement system will maximize your ability to meet the country's reimbursement requirements.
Germany's health care financing mechanism, the G-DRG, functions similarly to the Australian DRG System. Now, flat-rate payments are made for performed procedures and treatments. Main questions focus on which codes apply for specific products, and how these codes are obtained. Some of the important players in this respect are the Federal Ministry of Health (Bundesministerium für Gesundheit), the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Funds (GKV-Spitzenverband), the Federal Joint Committee (Gemeinsamer Bundesausschuss) that oversees Germany's statutory health insurance, the Institute for Hospital Renumeration System (Institut für das Entgeldsystem im Krankenhaus, or InEK) and the Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care (Institut für Qualität und Wirtschaftlichkeit im Gesundheitswesen, or IQWiG).
Along with Germany, Emergo can also support your reimbursement efforts in Norway, Denmark and Sweden.
Medical Device Reimbursement Roadmap for Germany
For clients unfamiliar with the German reimbursement system, Emergo offers a Reimbursement Roadmap. This service includes a high level review of the German reimbursement process that provides an overview of how Germany's health care system works and how federal and state health care policies dictate reimbursement rates and schedules. Our Reimbursement Roadmap services include:
- A general overview of Germany's reimbursement system
- Recent and pending changes to the German reimbursement system
- Required steps to obtain reimbursement in Germany based on your product's intended use
- Recommendations for next steps
Reimbursement Assessment for the German Market
Emergo offers a Reimbursement Assessment for clients already familiar with Germany's reimbursement system and seeking support in developing a reimbursement strategy. Our Reimbursement Assessment service is tailored to your specific needs, and could include the following components:
- Mapping the German market's current reimbursement schedules for specific procedures and treatments
- Identifying existing codes and funding for products similar to yours
- Mapping out processes and potential barriers to federal and state-level reimbursement
- Identifying key groups within the German health care system influencing the reimbursement process for your particular device
- Recommending short- and long-term reimbursement strategies for your German market penetration efforts
- Health Technology Assessment (HTA) reviews
- Key Opinion Leader (KOL) interviews
Our Reimbursement Assessment offerings may include coding and funding services to assist you in determining how your device will be categorized and funded according to German health care law. We have extensive experience dealing with both categories of medical device reimbursement under the German model: in-patient care devices for use in hospitals and clinics, and out-patient devices typically prescribed to patients by physicians.
Diagnosis-related groups (DRGs) regulate reimbursement of in-patient devices, and list which devices can be used on patients depending on particular diagnoses. Emergo can help you satisfy DRG requirements according to the nature of your device in order to obtain the maximum level of reimbursement possible and minimize delays.
In addition, we offer literature reviews of Health Technology Assessments (HTAs) and other current and pending federal- and state-level health care policies and procedures impacting how medical device manufacturers obtain reimbursement in the German market. This service also includes reviews of existing clinical literature that can support your ability to obtain appropriate reimbursement based on how the German reimbursement system has already dealt with devices providing similar functions.

Scaling Character Models
I am asking if perhaps anyone knows how to actually change the character model size in Kotor/Kotor2.
Specifically I'm working on a modification that makes the Zakkeg on Dxun in Kotor 2 actually "Built like a baragwin battle tank" and of a formidable looking size rather than the midsize armadillo thing of similar size to the totally "average" bomas in the Vanilla version. I want the Zakkeg to be roughly twice as tall as the PC and still able to walk around its "zone" outside the cave.

Despite forming in 1998, Eagles of Death Metal did not release their debut album until 2004. This year marks the 10th anniversary of that album, titled Peace Love Death Metal.
If you aren't familiar with the band, their permanent lineup consists of Jesse Hughes on vocals and guitar, and Josh Homme on drums. Live shows often don't feature Homme, due to his other commitments (such as Queens of the Stone Age) and do include various other contributors. It is said that the band's name comes from Hughes and Homme's inspiration to create a band combining the sounds of the Eagles and death metal, inspired by a joke one of them had coined.
Peace Love Death Metal certainly sounds neither like The Eagles nor death metal, but instead has a bluesy drive and rockabilly influence that you just don't hear in music anymore. With most songs being about sex, the devil, and cussing, this isn't your grandma's rock and roll. Eagles of Death Metal definitely brought the sleazy back to rock, which too many bands are afraid to do anymore.
While at times sloppy and even borderline corny, Peace Love Death Metal makes no apologies, down to not even cutting out the joking camaraderie between the songs during recording. Seeing a band, especially with so famous a member as Homme, not worry at all about taking itself seriously and just try to have a good time is refreshing. Coming in at 15 tracks, the average listener may grow bored before the album comes to a close. One suggestion would be to listen through the strong first 5 tracks, skip "English Girl" and possibly "Stacks O' Money," tune back in at track 8 for "Midnight Creeper," again skipping the overly ironic cover of Steeler Wheel's "Stuck in the Middle with You" before returning at "Already Died" and finishing off the album as you will. Overall, this album may be best sipped with a side of cheap beer, whenever you're ready to have a real good time.
In the fall of 2013, Hughes posted a video of Eagles of Death Metal in the studio recording their purported fourth album to his Instagram account (where he aptly goes by the name @fatherbadass). In early 2014, Josh Homme confirmed that he was working on the album. While it's unsure when this album will be released (the band themselves admit to not being in a hurry), Eagles of Death Metal will be playing Festival Supreme in LA this coming October, if you get a hankering to see them live.

Yesterday I was out estate saling with my girlfriend Lisa, and I got lots of awesome stuff, but the most amazing find was this!
It is a Kissel Electric Spinner and I got it for one dollar! I know, amazing I said! So I have been doing some research, and this is what I have learned. The Kissels of Wisconsin made these in the early 80's, made about 400 of them, sold them through adds in Spin-off magazine, and were sold for about $60.
Mine works well, it is missing the foot-pedal but I was able to order one off Amazon. I also ordered some new O-rings for it since the one is looking a little worse for wear. It was a bit squeaky so I oiled it up and now it is silent! It only had this one bobbin, but my bobbins from my Lendrum fit it perfectly! Win there! I also discovered the simple way to reverse the direction of the spin, because I was worried I might not be able to, but you simply twist the O-ring and put it on the white shaft backwards! Brilliant!
So I haven't actually used it for spinning yet, I am a little worried to try that without the foot pedal, so I am going to wait for that to arrive first. But, yay!

Updating the dead girl, live boy rule
Former Democrat Governor Edwin Edwards of Louisiana gave the political world what has since become known as the "dead girl, live boy rule" of politics when, en route to his 1984 election to a third term, he estimated his chances by saying "the only way I can lose this election is if I'm caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy".
It's a metaphor for doing something so insanely stupid as to upend politically reality, or at least getting caught doing it. As another former Louisiana Governor Earl Long put it in the movie Blaze, "A politician's got to be discreet in his indiscretions".
But being discreet is getting tougher.
Since the dawn of the Internet, along with email and its spawn text messaging, a smart politician with any survival instincts has to know that anything sent to anyone – no matter how trusted they may be at the moment – can one day pop up on the front page of the newspaper, show up on TV, or in the email in-boxes of every voter in their district. Many a job has been lost on account of the "reply all" button.
Further, thanks to the ubiquitous smart phone, virtually everyone everywhere is equipped with a handheld digital camera and voice recorder that can quickly capture that obscene rant at a constituent, or the discreet exit from the no-tell motel with that hot new intern, and post it on Facebook in a matter of seconds.
Despite that, human nature is what it is, and people continue to do dumb things. Add that to a culture that continues to chase the lowest common denominator and you end up with a lot of unfortunately "candid" moments and busted careers. On the bright side, this gives voters a chance to see what they actually got on Election Day, often much to their disappointment.
That said, the "dead girl, live boy rule" has been more than adequate to cover the idiocy of politicians of all stripes up to this point. But every now and then someone comes along who does something so colossally and epically stupid that rules have to be re-written to account for it.
Clearly it's one thing to get caught doing something foolish, but it's something else to willfully and repeatedly do so in a self-absorbed, sociopathic and exhibitionist way, especially after you've already been busted and drummed out of office for doing it once before. Which brings us to the latest case of Anthony Weiner and what I'll call the new "Carlos Danger corollary", which covers using technology in an insanely moronic and reckless way – like taking pictures of yourself naked and intentionally sharing them with someone in a format that is just one mouse click away from being front page news.
So here's the updated rule: never get caught with a dead girl or a live boy; or take pictures of your junk and send them to people. Politicians, take note.
Now that it's becoming so much easier to get caught, we've got an increasing number of politicians who want second chances; a trail blazed by Bill Clinton and followed by many more ever since.

On Thursday, ten more dogs, formerly pooches who roamed the streets of Sochi before the Winter Olympics began, arrived at Dulles Airport on their way to the Washington Animal Rescue League where they will be eligible for adoption, reported the Moscow Times.
Thanks to the coordinated efforts of Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska, whose dog rescue charity in the outskirts of Sochi, called PovoDog, has already saved 200 dogs slated to have been exterminated, recently reported 50 dogs have been adopted.
Ten dogs - six female and four males headed to the United States despite a mountain of paperwork and red tape.
In the beginning of February, shocking news of a private company hired to kill stray dogs on the outer perimeters of the Winter Olympics venue outraged animal lovers all over the world. Alexel Sorokin, owner of the company hired to shoot and poison the dogs, called the stray dogs "biological trash," and blamed irresponsible dog owners for dumping their dogs in the city parks and on the streets.
Sochi officials soon denied the reports, but advocates reported seeing dead bodies along the streets in the late hours of the night.
By March, Olympic athletes and tourists were helping to rescue the strays and bringing them home to the United States. Olympic silver medalist Gus Kenworthy and his friend Robin Macdonald appeared on the "Today" show in New York with Sochi stray dogs, Mama, and two of her puppies named Jake and Mishka.
The arrival of these fabulous dogs will hopefully inspire more people to help.
In a statement, Kelly O'Meara, of the Humane Society International in Washington stated:
"We are excited to make the connection for homeless Sochi dogs with loving homes in the United States, with our focus on helping street dogs in Russian and around the world...
"They're the sweetest, most interactive, very friendly dogs, and very adoptable that just happen to be unfortunate enough to be living on the street."
More Sochi dogs are expected to arrive soon.

Is it possible to automatically run the WP Importer when creating a new site in WordPress Multisite?
I think this would need to be a function that runs when wpmu_new_blog is called but can't find anything that's helped.
Since this is for a multisite (the same and NOT a different wordpress installation), would any of these plugins give a solution to your question?New Blog Defaults
It is a mu-plugin and has been around for some time (I have tried it myself and works just fine). Under "Bonus Settings" you are provided with options to customize the first post, the sample page, the first comments, the links, etc. All the settings filled under the plugin's options will be applied to all new blogs/sites created after the plugin is installed.Default Blog
This one uses a different approach. You have to create a "default", "sample" blog/site first. Please have a look at the screenshots. It looks pretty easy to follow. Never tried it though.

Randy Houser Interview: 'How Country Feels' Singer Still Laughing After Life's Highs and Lows

'Boots On' was a Top 5 follow-up, and then ... then he sort of got lost -- shuffled around like a middle-reliever in Major League Baseball, despite his talent as a singer and songwriter

Where others see only lines of tar made by road way repair, or yellow street lines or numbers scrawled on the pavement to mark some sewer line and their eyes slide past them, forgotten, Will Bushell sees them with an artist's eye. This book is his vision, framing the art found on streets and parking lots. Tar lines become gestures, yellow lines and sewer covers part of the composition. Even the grain of the pavement becomes a textural component of the art he finds there. Dodging oncoming traffic and often having to wait for the moment when traffic allows, he captures his shots and shares them in this book.
William Bushell was born and raised in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and received his art education at the Alberta College of Art in Calgary and the University of Alberta In Edmonton. Primarily a painter, Will has since exhibited his work in Calgary and Victoria, BC, where he currently resides with his wife Helen, also an artist.

OLYMPIA — Despite a majority of Washington state senators having signed a letter in support of a measure requiring insurers to cover abortion, a key lawmaker said Monday that it will not advance from her committee.
Republican Sen. Randi Becker of Eatonville, chairwoman of the Senate Health Care Committee, announced that the bill would not move forward hours after her panel heard testimony on it.
"Even advocates of the bill admit that there is no need for the bill today as every health insurer in the state of Washington provides for abortion coverage," said Becker in a written statement. "As such, the decision of the committee is that the bill will not move forward from here this year."
Her announcement makes clear that special measures would be required for the bill to get to the Senate floor for a vote.
The letter in support of the measure — dated March 5 but made public Monday — was signed by 25 of 49 state Senators and presented at the packed committee hearing where the bill was debated. After the hearing, frustrated supporters, who had long demanded a hearing on the measure, dismissed it as little more than a charade.
"It was just for show," said Sen. Karen Keiser of Kent, one of four Democrats on the nine-member panel. "It was simply a way to provoke a circus in the sense of having a lot of people show up and wave their ideological persuasions in front of us."
The hearing attracted more than 250 people from both sides of the abortion issue, with many of those wearing rival buttons and ribbons and dressed in dueling color schemes left to watch the proceedings on a screen in a nearby room.
The bill, which supporters call the Reproductive Parity Act, was passed by the House by a 53-43 vote in February, with mostly Democrats in favor and Republicans opposed.
Gov. Jay Inslee, a Democrat and a bill supporter, has repeatedly urged the Senate to vote on it.
The bill would make Washington the first state to require insurers that cover maternity care — which most all do — to also pay for abortions.
In testimony before Becker's committee, those supporting the measure said it would ensure continued abortion coverage in the state once federal health care reforms taking effect next year trigger bureaucratic hurdles for insurers paying for the procedure.
The bill would ensure that a woman's decision about whether to get an abortion "is left with her, her family, her health care provider and her God," said Elaine Rose, CEO of Planned Parenthood Votes Northwest, addressing the committee. "Not with government, not with her insurance plan, and with all due respect, not with any of you."
Opponents countered that abortion insurance coverage is already widespread in the state and that the bill is unnecessary. They also said the measure threatens the religious freedoms of businesses and individuals who oppose abortion rights and do not want to subsidize the cost of the procedure for others.

NORTHRIDGE, Calif.--The Arizona women's tennis team bounced back from last week's home losses with a 5-2 win over Cal State Northridge on Friday.
The Wildcats started off strong, clinching the doubles point with wins at No. 2 and No. 3. At No. 2, seniors Claire Rietsch and Natalia Toporowska topped Nina Jaworowski and Whitney Paluch 8-6. Sophomores Natasha Marks and Debora Castany notched their first win as a doubles duo with the 8-4 win over Nigora Sirojiddinova and Maria Pistalu.
In singles, Marks, ranked at No. 105 in the ITA, topped CSUN's Brooke Doane 6-2, 6-1 in the No. 1 position, and sophomore Sarah Landsman, ranked at No. 84 topped Nina Jaworowski 2-6, 6-2, 10-8 in the No. 2 spot.
At No. 3, Rietsch defeated Pulach in straight sets 6-4, 6-0, and Castany defeated Anna Yang 6-3, 6-3 at No. 5.
"The match went really well for us today." Said head coach Vicky Maes, "Everyone played relaxed and got the job done. CSUN is a good team and we knew this was going to be a challenging day, yet we kept our cool and were able to pull out the win. I'm very pleased with how the girls competed."
With the win, the Wildcats improve to 11-6, 1-4 Pac-10, and the Matadors fall to 8-6 on the season.
Up next, the Wildcats will face Loyola Marymount University on Saturday, April 3 at noon.

Ornithine decarboxylase gene expression is ...
|Ornithine decarboxylase gene expression is aberrantly regulated via the cAMP signal transduction pathway in malignant H‐ras transformed cell lines
|Robert A. R. Hurta, J. A. Wright
|Journal of Cellular Physiology
|Start page
|End page
|We have tested the hypothesis that H-ras transformed cells contain alterations in signal pathways important in controlling the expression of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), the highly regulated rate-limiting activity in the biosynthesis of polyamines. Mouse 10T1/2 fibroblasts and a series of 10T1/2 H-ras transformed cell lines were treated with stimulators of cAMP synthesis (forskolin and cholera toxin), a biologically stable analogue of cAMP (8-bromo-cAMP), and an inhibitor of cAMP degradation (3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine). Elevations in ODC gene expression were noted in H-ras transformed cells that were not observed in parental 10T1/2 fibroblasts. The forskolin-mediated effects were not detected with 1,9-dideoxyforskolin, a compound structurally related to forskolin, which does not activate adenyl cyclase. The effects observed with cholera toxin were not detected when cells were treated with the purified subunits of this compound, indicating that the toxin-induced effects were cAMP-specific. Actinomycin D treatment prior to forskolin exposure reduced the elevation observed in ODC gene expression indicating the involvement of the transcriptional process. Furthermore, we observed that cycloheximide treatment of malignant but not benign H-ras transformed cells significantly elevated ODC message level. Treatment of malignant cells with both cycloheximide and forskolin together resulted in a further additive elevation in ODC message, but a similar treatment of benign tumor cells reduced the forskolin-mediated increase in ODC message. In addition, treatment of H-ras transformed cells with the tumor promoter, 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) led to an elevation in ODC mRNA levels not observed in parental 10T1/2 fibroblasts. However, an increase in ODC message levels was observed in parental 10T1/2 cells treated with a combination of TPA and forskolin. Exposure of H-ras transformed cells to TPA and forskolin together led to further pronounced increases in ODC message when compared to treatment with TPA or forskolin alone. These results demonstrate aberrant regulation of signal pathways involved in controlling ODC gene expression in H-ras transformed cells and provide further insight into the altered growth regulatory program associated with malignant transformation.

On Sunday, the Daily Mail reported a story about the thousands of "forgotten souls" from The Oregon State Mental Hospital. The forgotten are the remains of 3,500 deceased mentally ill patients who died during their stay at the mental hospital from the early 1900s to 1971. A decade ago, officials found 3,500 copper urns containing human ashes in the former mental institution. On Monday, officials created a memorial to remember the forgotten patients. Officials had already begun working to reunite urns with family members.
The Jack Nicholson movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" was filmed at the location. The forgotten remains have become a grotesque symbol of how past Americans treated the mentally ill. The dead came from 48 different states (excluding Hawaii and Alaska) and 44 different countries. Some of the deceased were former military. The honorably discharged military members will be buried in military graveyards.
Unfortunately, 38 of the urns do not have an identity. Therefore, no one can reunite those remains. Documentation stated that one patient, a 78-year-old man, suffered from senility. He walked the facility naked. Records show he arrived in New York from Norway in 1883. The movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" is based on a book written by Ken Kesey.
In the film adaptation, Jack Nicholson portrays Randall McMurphy, an Irish-American Korean War veteran. McMurphy is a tough guy brawler that finds himself locked up in a mental facility for fighting and gambling. McMurphy carries his issues into the facility and finds arival in Nurse Ratched. The classic movie also featured Danny DeVito and Christopher Lloyd. Both men would find fame as actors in the television hit series "Taxi." DeVito starred as Louie DePalma while Lloyd portrayed Reverend Jim.

It seems like we may never know precisely what went down at Jennifer Lopez's concert at Mohegan Sun over the weekend, with witness accounts of the event differing, and little helpful video footage of the evening available, but certainly at some point, J. Lo broke down in tears. Many speculated that the crying was brought about by a performance of ballad "Until it Beats No More" (or was it actually "One Love"?) which featured dancers dressing up as a number of men from J. Lo's past, including Diddy, Ben Affleck and Marc Anthony. But no, says Lopez's reps—it wasn't her "trip down memory lane" that did it, it was the picture of her with her kids (in a Gucci ad) on the Jumbo-tron that "pushed her over the edge." C'mon, Jen—the ad's not that cheesy.
Not everyone appears to believe Ms. Lopez's accounting of events, as the good people of Bossip dub her "cry baby" and respond to her explanation with a hearty "yeah friggin right!!" We don't presume to have any insight into J. Lo's mental state that night, so all we can say is wow, this whole thing is weird and we kind of wish we were there in Connecticut this weekend to witness all this in person.

High School/Club
Coach Joanne Bowers on Jaclyn:
Preseason 2014: "Jack is the most improved gymnast from last year! She is one of our top bars and beam performers, with great lines and difficulty. She is working hard to make our floor lineup right now also and could really help us with her beautiful dance. She made the dean's list last year and is doing a great job in the classroom too."
Preseason 2013: "She struggled a lot as a freshman but has really started to figure it out and works so hard. I will be surprised if she isn't helping us on three events this year: bars, beam and floor. If we can get her in lineups on all three events she will really help our team. I'm excited about her progress."

Increase Security Effectiveness with these 20 Critical Security Controls
The 20 Critical Security Controls (CSCs) have been shown to increase the effectiveness of security programs and lower the cost of maintaining security across government organizations. The US State department under CISO John Streufert, demonstrated more than 94% reduction in "measured" security risk through rigorous automation and tracking of the 20 Critical Security Controls.
Tenable's solutions provide unique capabilities such as continuous real-time monitoring through passive monitoring and integrated log aggregation and correlation combined with the most popular and accurate scanner on the market, Nessus, allowing organizations to automate reporting and maintain continuous compliance with these critical controls.

Wolcott mom was stabbed and beaten, autopsy shows
Her body was found Monday along Knotter Drive in Cheshire, near an industrial park at the Southington line. State Medical Examiner Dr. Wayne Carver used dental records to identify the badly decomposed body.
A trucker spotted a tarp about 25 feet in the woods near Cheshire Industrial Park last week and reported it to police on Monday after reading news reports about Cannon's disappearance. Under the tarp, police found her body.
Cannon had two stab wounds to the chest and four blunt force blows to the head, according to the autopsy. The cause of death was blunt force trauma.
Police believe that her husband, Patrick Cannon, 44, killed her on May 6 around midnight and disposed of the body some time before 6:30 a.m. He has been charged with murder and is being held on $3 million bond.
Police are still looking for a weapon.
"We're still in search of the murder weapon, or murder weapons," said Wolcott's Acting Police Chief Neil O'Leary, who is overseeing the investigation. "Obviously we're looking for a knife and something that would cause blunt force trauma to the head, so that aspect of the investigation is continuing."
Police interviewed Patrick Cannon late May 8 and into the morning and seized control of his home at 207 Spindle Hill Road. He had to sleep in a hotel, and chose the Comfort Suites, 64 Knotter Drive in Cheshire.
The hotel is about 200 yards from where the body was found.

Still another year before that monster's trial is to begin!

Western Digital has just announced they've reached an agreement with Toshiba Corporation to divest certain hard drive manufacturing assets in order to meet the requirements of regulatory agencies reviewing the company's close-but-not-quite-there acquisition of Hitachi Global Storage Technologies (Hitachi GST).
Within the deal itself, Toshiba will acquire manufacturing and released IP from WD for 3.5-inch hard drives, as well as the firm's near-line storage unit for server application use. WD has also announced they've agreed, subject to completion of the divestiture transaction, to purchase Toshiba Storage Device Thailand (TSDT), a hard drive manufacturing facility that has not resumed operations since the 2011 Thailand floods.
WD plan to slide TSDT facilities and employees into existing operations in Thailand. Financially, nothing is known from these agreements, yet.

The Minnesota Golden Gophers had one of their best seasons in some time in 2013. That jump was led by a few emerging stars and a few graduating seniors.
Head coach Jerry Kill has preached building the Gopher program with bricks and not sand. That means the young players are going to have to show improvement. Here are the top five redshirt freshmen that will have an impact on the Gophers in 2014.
RB Berkley Edwards
Edwards is a slashing home run threat. The Gophers have not had a big threat back like Edwards since Laurence Maroney completed his final season at Minnesota in 2005. Edwards can fly. If he can get into space, he is gone. The 5-foot-9-inch, 190-pound Novi, Mich. native is not an every down back and cannot run between the tackles. Offensive coordinator Matt Limegrover is going to have to be creative to get him on the edge.
K Andrew Harte/Ryan Santoso
Harte and Santoso will battle for the kicking job. Both performed well in the spring game. Harte, a 6-foot, 180-pound Downers Grove, Ill. native, was perfect, including a kick of over 50 yards. Santoso, a 6-foot-5-inch, 260-pound Pace, Fla. native, made everything inside 50 and missed one over 50. Santoso is on scholarship while Harte is a walk-on, which may give Santoso the first shot.
LB De'Niro Laster
Laster is a big athlete. He played some wide receiver in high school, but could be a star at outside linebacker. The 6-foot-4-inch, 230-pound Cleveland Heights, Ohio native is a potential star at weak side linebacker. He will push and by the end of the season could supplant redshirt junior De'Vondre Campbell as the starter. Campbell is going enter the season as the favorite to be the starter after splitting time with now-graduated James Manuel. Campbell had moments of brilliance, but Laster is a more complete player.
QB Chris Streveler
Streveler redshirted last season more because of his thumb injury than his on-field ability. He got his first taste of college life last spring and impressed the coaching staff. He moved up a spot on the depth chart without stepping on the field when Philip Nelson transferred. Incumbent starter Mitch Leidner was inconsistent as he dealt with an injury throughout last season. Streveler is going to get on the field at some point. The 6-foot-2-inch, 209-pound Crystal Lake, Ill. native is athletic, but must prove capable of igniting the passing game.
LB Chris Wipson
Wipson had a very good spring game. He was all over the field making tackles, most of which occurred close to the line of scrimmage. The 6-foot-2-inch, 210-pound Plymouth, Minn. native is a solid tackler that has a chance to replace graduated strong side starter Aaron Hill. He missed a portion of his senior season and was not ready to contribute with the Gophers as a true freshman last season because of an injury.

LeBron James led all scores Thursday with 25 points, but the only thing NBA fans will remember--other than the 110-95 loss to the San Antonio Spurs--is how the Miami Heat forward left the game. What came next would be shocking if the athlete in question was anyone else but a "Decision" making, Air apparent, beast of a player, and even less shocking to any Washington Wizards fan.
With the AT&T Center reporting an above 90-degree temperature due to a broken air conditioner, James left Game 1 of the 2014 NBA Finals with 3:59 left in the fourth quarter. He battled a bout of cramps over a stretch of the fourth, but couldn't remain mobile no matter how hard he tried. These cramps resulted in a social media surge, which generated plenty of Lance Stephenson memes, some thoughts about women dealing with cramps, and how LeBron needs to "man up," and even some references to past LeBron criticism, such as his infamous "crab dribble," circa 2008-09.
In case you forgot how much the Washington Wizards disliked Mr. James back then, take a look at a team produced jab which was quickly removed from the Wizards' website. Keep in mind the team made this video, and you can't be too surprised to know that in 2014, LeBroning is a thing. Is it fair? No. But that's how the post-Michael Jordan era of basketball is, and that's how the media--and fans--handle the post-"Decision" LeBron James.
First let's take a deeper look into what a leg cramp means, and how it happens. One thing any athlete or fan of a sport should know is that a muscle can cramp due to lack of hydration and general fatigue, and when it happens, it can be the worst pain ever. In fact, the pain can be so severe that you'll be sore the next day, even 24 hours later. Not only did James get to that threshold, but he went back onto the court and scored a layup. Then add 90-plus degree heat, which further encourages dehydration, as well as a constant array of bigger bodies on the defensive end, like Boris Diaw and Kawhi Leonard, requiring James to exert the most energy out of any player on the court.
James scored 23 of his game-high 25 points after three quarters despite all of the obstacles in his way, against one of the best defensive teams in the league. The dude put in some work. Is it really that strange how he was the only one who received the meme-treatment? In the post-Jordan, post-Decision world, no. But is it fair? At the end of the day, of course not. Yet here we are, and with the AT&T Center "fully operational" for Sunday, we'll see just how James responds to the latest--and possibly most vicious--line of attacks.

What can be learned by comparing the map of California gold regions in this topic to the map of native Californian tribes in the previous topic?
How does the appearance of Native Americans in photographs taken in the mid-1850s differ from those depicted in paintings and lithographs of the same time?
By 1823, Spaniards had founded 21 missions from San Diego to Sonoma. The mission system was Spain's centuries-old method of advancing and securing its colonial frontiers. Spain used natives to colonize new lands and provide a labor force to sustain its colonies. Two lithographs show European impressions of native Californian dancers in missions in San Francisco and San Jose.
The mission padres used force to obtain converts and labor. For example, the Spanish friars would allow Native Americans to escape or "visit" their homes, with the intention of following them and capturing other indigenous people. Motivated by curiosity and self-interest, many native Californians joined Spanish missions and villages, only to discover they were not permitted to leave.
Native Americans were pressed into labor, working all day, serving as farm labor and domestic servants. The lithograph Vue du Presidio de San Francisco shows native people doing work under the supervision of Spaniards in the Presidio of San Francisco.
Native women were often raped by Spanish soldiers and other settlers. The natives were severely disciplined for not working, but most often for attempting escape.
Secularization began in 1834, with half of all mission lands to be turned over to local native groups. But native Californians were often never told that they owned land, and many drifted away, strangers in their own ancestral homelands.
Native Californians provided most of the labor for the emergent Spanish ranching economy. Some worked as vaqueros herding cattle. The lithograph California Vaqueros, Home from the Chase pictures these is Spanish cowboys, some of whom may be of natives. Others processed tallow in huge iron pots, tended gardens, and harvested crops.
Laborers were bound to their ranches in a state of perpetual peonage, with difficult working conditions and few alternatives. In response, some natives fled inland, joining mountain or desert groups and using their ranching knowledge to organize raids on livestock.
Displacement and depopulation contributed to an intense process of what anthropologists call "ethnogenesis," the creation of new ethnicities and identities. Native groups combined, split apart, and recombined in new ways in response to perilous times. Spanish-speaking natives intermarried with working-class Mexicans, further blurring racial categories.
The Gold Rush further devastated California's native groups. The state's native population dropped from about 150,000 in 1848 to 30,000 just 12 years later. Miners and other newcomers methodically mined, hunted, and logged native groups' most remote hiding places. The print A Road Scene in California depicts European American miners moving into an area, as a native group walks the other direction. The photograph of a "mining scene with flume and miners" seems to show an Indian in the foreground.
Although the lithograph of "California gold diggers" shows Indians and white miners coexisting, these were not peaceful times. In response to the invasion of their territory, natives began raiding mining camps for subsistence. American miners — supported by the state government — organized war parties and sometimes slaughtered entire native groups.
Even as the native populations dwindled, paintings such as Carl Wimar's Indian Campfire continued to idealize a life that had almost disappeared. Photographs from this time, such as "Group of Digger Indian Squaws," "Washoe Indians — Valley of Lake Tahoe," and "Washoe Indians — The Chief's Family," show Indians in Western dress, their traditional way of life disrupted.
The Act for the Government and Protection of Indians was passed by the state legislature in 1850. It denied native Californians the right to testify in court and allowed white Americans and Californios to keep natives as indentured servants. According to the National Park Service, an 1862 issue of the Alta California reported: "Little more than a hundred miles from San Francisco, in Mendocino County, the practice of Indian stealing is still extensively carried out. Only recently, George H. Woodman was caught near Ukiah with sixteen Indian children, as he was about to take them out of the county for sale."
"I do not like the white man because he is a liar and a thief," Isidora Filomena de Solano, a Patwin-speaking woman from the Bay Area, told an interviewer in 1874. She echoed the sentiments of many native Californians struggling to preserve traditional ways in the midst of holocaust. Indeed, under American rule Native Americans basically had no legal recourse to fight discrimination or the dispossession of their lands.
During the 1870s, two significant events occurred. One was the Ghost Dance movement, which sought to restore native traditions. The other was the Modoc War of 1872-73, a series of battles between US soldiers and Modoc Indians near Tule Lake. These hard fought battles, which the Modoc eventually lost, were the last known time Indians in California resisted government authorities. The US Army asked photographer Eadward Muybridge to document the wars. His stereoscopic views purport to show both sides of the battle: "A Modoc Brave on the Warpath" on the native side, and "Warm Spring Indian Scouts on Picket Duty" under the Army's command.
Some native people, such as the "Indian Family at Santa Rosa Rancheria near Lemoor," shown here, lived in rancherias — a word that originally meant the workers' quarters on a rancho, and later came to refer to Indian settlements that were less formal than reservations. The print Yosemite Rancheria shows one such community of Indians camped near a river in 1878, six years after Yosemite had become a national park. Many rancherias still exist in California today.
By the end of the 19th century, the native Californian population had dropped to less than 20,000 as a result of disease, malnourishment, and violence. Less than half lived on reservations — most found work in California cities or in migratory agriculture (many found seasonal work in Southern California's wine industry.) There were few jobs open in the cities, and Native Americans often were not paid honestly. The cover of an 1895 issue of The Wasp, a satirical magazine of the time, illustrates some attitudes towards "Uncle Sam's Indian Policy," which the magazine's editors considered ineffectual.California Content Standards

Stereoscopic views were a new form of entertainment in the mid-1800s. These photographs of people and places, which appeared three-dimensional when viewed, offered viewers a way to "travel" without leaving home. The technology is fairly simple: two nearly identical photos offering slightly different views of the same scene are printed next to each other on a card. When seen through a stereo viewer (a simple handheld device), they create a 3D effect.

Graphic Desigh, 'Milenio de Granada' Logo
This is the proposal we presented to the 'Milenio de Granada' logo contest. The logo is built from the graphic shape created by the number 1000. We have evoked the facade of a palace of the Nasrid period, where the superior weight of the construction seems to be supported by the fragility of the columns.
In our approach the weight of the logo, as in Moorish architecture, is on the top.
We take this opportunity to show also the winner logo and congratulate its creators, the advertising agency Ele Medios.

Everything crashed in a minute. Dow went negative on my screen. VXX went up a dollar. Then the Dow went from negative to +118. Now I'm seeing there was a bomb scare in a couple of places, but I don't think that was it. Not saying anything on Bloomberg. Maybe it was just Ameritrade, or did you guys see the same thing? Dow crashed 140 points and went negative in a minute, then turned right around and went back up
I was out to lunch and did not see that happened....wondering what's going on

Top 5 Mags in June: Give 'Em Elle, Allure and Guns
Tuesday, May 29, 2012
A rather eclectic group of advertising gainers sport min's top 5 monthly mags in our June collection. Taking the top spot is enthusiast title Guns & Ammo with 47.84 more ad pages in June 2012 compared with 2011. There are two women's fashion magazines in Allure (40.04 more pages) and Elle (21.51), technology's IEEE Spectrum (30.09), and the African-American standard-bearer Ebony (19.58).
Here are our top 5:
Our lower- than-par monthly report of 154 titles for first half is not a surprising one. The year has been like that. June demonstrated -6.45% and the overall differential for year-to-date 2012-versus-2011 was -6.10%. As you can see from the timeline below, the second quarter was -6.13% in 2012. At the same time last year, the second-quarter differential was +1.69% and in 2010 it was +4.67%. Sad but true.
Only 48 of the monthlies were up in June and 45 were up year-to-date.
Here is the three-year quarterly timeline:
1) Guns & AmmoWith an 89.42% ad-page gain, Intermedia Outdoors' Guns & Ammo takes first place in June's lineup. Publisher Chris Agnes tells min that success this year can be attributable to a number of events and actions, including a great editorial team that delivers what the readers want, like shooting sports, as a result of such shows as Sons of Guns on the Discovery Channel. "Guns & Ammo is always first-to-market with exclusive stories on new firearms and gear, due to great relationships amongst the edit team and manufacturers. This, naturally, helps the ad-sales side in getting more pages from existing customers, and new business (which, for 2012, includes Colt, Repel, LWRC, Daniel Defense, Rhino Linings, Armscor and FFL123.com)," says Agnes. The G&A brand is strong with enthusiast firearms fans.
Another attribute is, says Agnes, "the election year – for whatever reason, the Second Amendment [the right to bear arms] is always a part of the conversation, and that drives both readership and advertising."
2) AllureIn its third time on min's 2012's top 5 chart (Allure took top slot in February), the Condé Nast women's beauty magazine ranked second in June with a 41.15% ad-page gain. "June 2012 was the biggest issue EVER for Allure," says VP/publisher Agnes Chapski, "with significant gains coming from beauty and retail. The success stems from our annual signature editorial: the Readers' Choice awards. Considering the growing power of peer-to-peer credentialing, and Allure's seals in particular, advertisers see the benefit of aligning with this content. Nearly 90% of our readers say they trust the issue to help them select what to buy."
The technology-savvy publication IEEE Spectrum (flagship association has 400,000 members in 150 countries) has made its premiere entry in min's top 5 chart with a +118.79% ad-page differential in its June 2012 Technology Beyond Money issue. Credit to the 32-page sponsored insert by Comsol (simulation software for engineers). Associate publisher/sales Director Marion Delaney tells min that IEEE Spectrum was the winner of the "general excellence among thought-leader magazines" category at the 2012 National Magazine Awards. The June issue is the one that is usually sent to exemplify its excellent coverage each year, so it is a no-brainer to pitch an advertiser who is looking for technology innovator readers.

A pair of sacrifice flies in the ninth and 11th innings led the host Sacramento River Cats to a 6-5 victory over the Albuquerque Isotopes on Thursday night. Nate Freiman drove in Alden Carrithers on both occasions.
Carrithers led off the 11th with a single up the middle. Two batters later, Stephen Vogt singled through the right side to put runners at the corners. Freiman then lofted a flyball deep enough to center field to score Carrithers.
Albuquerque (24-29) led 5-4 in the ninth when Carrithers led off that frame with a single through the left side. Two batters later, Vogt reached on a single to second baseman Carlos Triunfel, who then threw the ball away for an error that enabled the runners to reach second and third. Freiman then hit a sac-fly to center, driving in Carrithers.
Carrithers went 3-for-5 with an RBI, a stolen base and scored three runs total for Sacramento (33-21). Vogt and Daric Barton also each went 3-for-5.
Miguel Rojas was 2-for-5 with a solo home run in the seventh inning that had given the Isotopes a brief lead. Jeremy Hazelbaker, just recalled from Double-A Chattanooga, was also 2-for-5 with a double and an RBI.
Starter Zach Lee allowed four runs on four hits and five walks in 5.2 innings. Yimi Garcia (3-1) took the loss in relief.
Albuquerque rocked former Oakland starter Dan Straily for four runs on 10 hits and three walks in 5.2 innings. Evan Scribner (2-1) earned the victory for Sacramento with two scoreless innings of relief.
The Isotopes and River Cats will finish their four-game series Friday at 8:05 p.m. Albuquerque will seek a series split as right-hander Sam Demel (0-1, 6.35 ERA) takes on Sacramento right-hander Josh Lindblom (2-3, 6.19), a former Isotope.

By nature kittens and cats are energetic and inquisitive, but these adorable qualities can lead them straight into serious trouble unless you take pre-emptive measure. Don't ever forget that your kitty has a much lower vantage point than you, and like a baby who has just begun to crawl, he/she may be automatically attracted to things you may not even notice.
It's virtually impossible to completely cat-proof your home against mishaps, but for your cat's health and safety, here are some suggestions:
Securely screen each and every window to help prevent falls. Keep your cat off upper porches, balconies, and high decks.
Tuck away poisonous materials such as household cleaners, cosmetics and medicines. Keep these in securely closed areas where your cat cannot get contact. Remember, cats are dexterous, intelligent and inquisitive little creatures and have been known to open cabinets and doors with a swift, dexterous paw.
Remove all poisonous houseplants or place them in hanging baskets totally our of your cat's reach. Ask your veterinarian for a complete list of dangerous plants. Some indoor and outdoor plants which are poisonous to cats include: Amaryllis, Ivy (most types), Azalea, Lilies (all types), Buckeye, Mistletoe, Castor Bean, Morning Glory,
Clematis, Narcissus, Corn Plant, Oleander, Cyclamen, Philodendron (all types), Daffodil
Poinsettia, Daphne, Precatory Bean, Dumb Cane (all types), Rhododendron, Foxglove
Rubber Plant, Holly, Weeping Fig, Iris and Yews
Keep those toilet lids down. Cats may elect to play in the water and the lid could slam shut and trap them. Don't forget residual toilet bowl cleanser left in the bowl is harmful if swallowed.
Store plastic bags where your cat can't get inside them and suffocate or chew or tear them and swallow bits of plastic.
Cut up and discard plastic six-pack beverage holders to thwart your cat from getting tangled in them. This will protect feral cats that may unintentionally come across them too. This also goes for those rings on gallons of milk.
Keep uncovered electrical cords as short as possible, or tack them securely against a baseboard so that your feline can't play with or chew them.
Store all craft and sewing supplies out of your kitty's reach: Needles, pins, snaps, buttons, and thread can hurt his/her mouth or internal organs if swallowed. This also goes for screws, bolts, nuts, screws and other small pieces of hardware.
Do not use electric blankets to line your cat's bed. She/he could be electrocuted if she/he chews the wire.
Be a few steps ahead of those graceful, little paws and you could save your cat's life.
