Doctor shortage?
June 29, 2013
Dr. Dinh Vu had just finished up his residency at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Jersey when he decided to bring his family practice skills to Marietta....
encinoman the need for health care has preceded Obama care. 30,000,000 million going to appear overnight to seek medical care just because of the affordable care act

we have had all of the above sorts of incidents here as well. try getting a physician referral from MMH. Takes weeks for them to call back and months to get an appointment. we now drive elsewhere to get decent medical attention.

The 'guys in suits' syndrome- a v 'western' phenomenon- is encroaching everywhere- because if there is 'money' to be made...then all is fair. While Obama clearly means well- intertwining the two is so big and complex- and factoring in the aging population- a conundrum. The baby boomers in suits failed...miserably.

It's foolish to use a broad brush when describing the quality of physicians in the Marietta area. There are several excellent physicians in the area. There also some who I'm sure finished at the bottom of their medical school classes, and who squeaked by on the licensing boards. I have experienced both.
I have several serious medical conditions but I don't go to the doctor unless it's necessary. My conditions/diseases are managed by out of the area doctors. But I need a primary care doc. What I've grown tired of is having several problems that need addressed but being able to only address one at my appointment. I've had to wait long periods of time to see the doc, who's a really nice guy, but not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
Mistreating me could kill me so it's been tough to find a primary care or internist to take me. Plus I'm poor and even though I have Medicare I'm a very slow pay for my 20%.

Good information encinoman. I'm finding it very difficult at the moment though to process that 100K raise to the CEO. Just repulsive considering the world of hurt he has brought on so many good people.

Also, checking the Form 990 for the Memorial Health Care Physicians indicate why Marietta is a lucrative place for doctors. Not one in the top 5 makes less than $800K a year.... hospital owns the practice, supplies the staffing and office space.
And it's going to get tougher and tougher to be seen; Obama just added 30 million plus insured without adding a single physician or provider.
The quality of care will go down further, appointments more difficult, hospitals, urgent care centers, out patient centers will become congested, waits will be longer. It's going to get worse.

One line in the story about an increase in the number of insured "is likely to grow in the next year as millions more newly-insured Americans are expected to become covered" is kind of funny. They'll be in violation of the law if they DON'T get insurance and they'll be "taxed" (read: fined) by Obama.. even though he said unequivocally that no American will see their taxes raised "not one dime" if they make less than $250K a year.
MMH is just doing what will net them more money and keep physicians on staff; buying practices and continuing to monopolize the health care industry in the MOV. They are, after all, the biggest employer in the area, at or near 2000. They've been getting federal reimbursement at a metropolitan rate rather than rural even though their expenses are rural. The CEO got a 100K raise in 2011 and the top highest employees garner over $2M in salary, total (not individually.) All this is in their IRS Form 990 for public exam.

bwc511 you said, "Want a better place.... start addressing all this racism, homophobia and general hate of anything from outside the hills."
I was trying to make a point that I know of no utopia in the U.S. that is free of capitalism and the other things you mentioned. Other than in some fantasy land.
Ha, yeah Rush does call me occasionally for material to use on the show. :) Not!

Rocker were you trying to make a point, or was your point to make a Rush Limbaugh type comment? If so, I agree that you did just that.

bwc511- I hear the planet Euphoria has no racism or hate, and the skools are good too.
The bad part is the planet is covered in pixie and fairy dust. So it gets very dusty when a herd of Unicorns run by. :))

Why would doctors want to locate here? Sure downtown Marietta is quaint, but the schools and politics turn more people away than they attract. They cannot even retain our own youth who grow up to become professionals. This is reality, people, and the very spirit of capitalism. You get what you can compete with... Want a better place.... start addressing all this racism, homophobia and general hate of anything from outside the hills.

If you think its bad now, just wait until this nightmare called obamacare fully takes effect.
Ha, heartburn medicine and muscle relaxers for a sinus infection? I heard the medical field was being dumbed down but that is ridiculous.

MMH is GREAT about taking money, especially at Glenwood's Independent living facilities but absolutely IMMORAL when it comes to returning the deposit back to the estate after the death of one of their patsies, er sorry, clients. Should it really take nearly TWO years to do so? According to them, yep. Not only that, they LIE like a rug about it. Do yourself a favor if you ever run into the same problem when dealing with these shysters. Tape record your conversations with them, it can come in quite handy when you have to start threatening to sue them for their reluctance to return what is not their money.

Dr. Vu is very nice, professional and quite competent when I needed to be seen at Physician's Care. Welcome to the area, Dr. Vu!!

Why bother trying to have a primary "family" style doctor? We moved to the area, after finally finding one who would take a new patient, they will only see you at their convenience. MMH has some how monopolized the system and now Drs only see about 10 – 12 patients a day. For example, I called on a Monday morning, when I was having flu like symptoms. Dr's office said, "We can see you Thursday at 11", I said I am sick now. They said, "Then go to urgent care." That has happened more than once with our family, they all push you out to Urgent or Physicians Care.

Let me issue a disclaimer right off. Before I ever typed my first GNU/Linux command in a terminal the Free Software Foundation was fighting the good fight for free software and all the issues surrounding individual freedom and privacy both on and offline. All of us owe it a debt of gratitude for the work is has done and continues to do on behalf of the principles of a free society and free computing. It's commitment to these things is unswerving but one of the down sides of this unremitting focus is the danger of a loss of perspective on certain campaigning issues. This article takes a look back at one in particular. DRM.
Choose the battleground carefully
It would be unfair and an exaggeration to characterize the FSF as a "single issue fanatic" group
It would be unfair and an exaggeration to characterize the FSF as a "single issue fanatic" group. It isn't, but it does needs to be careful that it does not fall prey to the tunnel vision that has led so many others to lose their sense of proportion and lurch into extremes. For the most part it has put it's weight and skills behind campaigns against DRM, the RIAA, patents, proprietary codecs, open source release of Java code, the Linux free BIOS, its compliance lab for licencing queries and trusted computing, and it has got it about right. Sometimes though, its sureness of touch deserts it and in its zeal to protect and promote free software it can be in danger of behaving counter productively.
I am referring to the attack on DRM on the Apple iPhone, part of the FSF's Defective by Design campaign. The FSF suggested that free software supporters should grill the shop staff at the Apple Genius Bar with questions about DRM. Ironically, the iPhone launched on the same day as the GLPv3 (whose DRM provisions left Linus Torvalds so unimpressed, although the GPL debuted six hours before the iPhone. On launch day, in New York and London, activists descended on flagship Apple stores to highlight the nature of DRM. Now, as anyone who has been reading FSM articles in the last six months will know, I dislike DRM and "trusted computing" as much as the next GNU/Linux user. I try not give it house room and the FSF campaign against is fully justified, but tactics are as important as strategy.
I only work here on Saturdays mate, honest
The average Apple store employee, confronted by those tactics would either be unaware of DRM issues or would say "Look, I only work here on Saturdays mate. I'll get the manager". When I ask technical questions in my local Dixons/Currys store here in the UK I am confronted frequently too by blank stares of incomprehension, usually by staff who haven't had their first shave yet. They are salespersons, not "propeller heads".
The sales staff don't make corporate policy. They are trained to sell electronic goods, not to be versed in the evils of proprietary software or hobbled hardware. Haranguing sales staff is to direct justified ire at the wrong target. It is a matter of not only picking the right battle but where and on what terms to fight it too. If I were expressing this in terms of economics I would argue that the issue of DRM should be demand-side driven. In other words, the FSF needs to concentrate more on educating the public. Of course it already does this but we need a lot more of it. If consumers are educated about why DRM is a bad thing for their freedoms and pockets and are given the software tools to make the binary blobs superfluous this may achieve more than flash-mobbing Apple. Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) has, for example, initiated a campaign for the adoption of free software PDF readers and there is of course there is Gnash, the free software alternative to Adobe's proprietary Flash Player. That's good.
It seems that the "I want one of those" syndrome is a near irresistible Siren lure for many people who just have to have the latest cool gadget
Apple's shiny things and Microsoft's FUD would not endure any prolonged consumer boycott. However, it seems that the "I want one of those" syndrome is a near irresistible Siren lure for many people who just have to have the latest cool gadget. The FSF have their work cut out. Getting to the consumer is not always easy and at least "targeting" the vendor gets some publicity and it's hardly an original tactic. Activists on everything from the environment, to drugs and animal right campaigners have engaged in direct action, sometimes illegally, but activism needs to cut its cloth to suit. The arguments to pitch GNU/Linux to the average end user are different to those needed to sell it to businesses where the bottom line is cost and profit. Many free software advocates do this very well
It's an uphill struggle
Much of the best work by the FSF is not high profile in terms of public awareness. It is better known amongst the activist and free software communities and we are glad for it but when it ventures into the non-specialist public arena it is apt to be misunderstood by a public to whom its actions can look like pure political activism. It is impossible to know how effective such campaigns actually are but we do know from other groups that businesses are susceptible to pressure when their policies are unpopular with customers and/or shareholders. However those successes tend to be with high-profile things like the environment which engage public emotions in a way that free software, patents and DRM cannot. They should, but it is an uphill struggle to make them relevant, sexy or cool.
Hardware and software vendors are blessed with the Devil's own luck and the FSF is between a rock and a hard place
Hardware and software vendors are blessed with the Devil's own luck: if it looks good, is reasonably priced and works without requiring a Ph.D. in electronics or software engineering it will be good to go. Tell buyers that it is not truly free or will eventually cost them more further down the road in terms of duplicating costs and inter-operability problems and they will probably still buy it. The picketing of public meetings just baffles them or leaves them indifferent. The FSF is between a rock and a hard place.
Never-the-less, the FSF does important work and the occasional error of judgement should not be held against it. In some ways it is a thankless task. It is liable to get it from both ends of the argument--that it is too geeky or too political. Either way, thank heavens it is there doing what it can to protect digital freedoms so let's cut it some slack and give it a fair wind for future battles which are sure to follow.
please clarify
"The arguments to pitch GNU/Linux to the average end user are different to those needed to sell it to businesses where the bottom line is cost and profit. Many free software advocates do this very well"
Absolutely agree with the first sentence. Does "this" in the second sentence apply to arguments for end users or arguments for businesses?
Greg Knittl
Tactics and strategy
Nothing you've said convinces me of any lapses in judgment. As you point out, their work is long and difficult. But the FSF does not launch these campaigns because they're easy, but "because they are hard, [...] because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win."
In other words, the FSF will keep fighting the good fight because no one else will. BadVista and Defective by Design are important parts of that, and I believe they're on the right track.
Not really for the salespeople
The truth is that demonstrations in and in front of stores are not really for the benefit of the salespeople, but for the customers. I think the point of such demonstrations is to raise awareness among customers.
I don't know how successful it is at doing that, but the idea is basically sound. The problem is this: how else can you get through to those customers? If you launch a campaign on the internet, you're only reaching a small, technically-literate audience -- missing most of the people who are supporting these "lock-down" business models. So how else can you address the general public? TV commercials would work of course, but they are very expensive. Radio spots are cheaper, but you'd need a lot more of them. And so on.
"Making a scene" at the place of sale not only communicates directly with customers there, but may, if the scene is big enough or interesting enough, attract press coverage that will get you those kinds of exposure for free. And yes, of course, these are exactly the tactics of a political movement. But that's what the FSF is waging with the DbD and BadVista campaigns.

Think Outside The Gift Box: Unique Wedding Guestbooks0
Here at A Personal Touch we LOVE to put a creative, personalized and unique spin on everything. So you can imagine how excited we've become now that we're seeing couples thinking outside-the-gift-box when it comes to their wedding guestbook! Instead of setting out plain ol' guestbooks, brides and grooms are getting creative and are coming up with unique items and ways for people to sign in and we can't wait to tell you all about them!
As always, we stumbled upon our favorite idea from Pinterest! We saw the photo at left and were thrilled to see that people are personalizing canvases, like PMall's Wedding Memories Photo Canvases, with one of their engagement pictures and having people write a little message and signing their names!
We love the idea that it's more personal and people get to leave special notes for you but also because once everyone signs the canvas you have a beautiful, one-of-a-kind keepsake that you can hang in your home! It's like getting 2 things for the price of 1 … and who doesn't love that!?
To make matters better, PMall has a wide selection of Wedding Canvas Designs that offer you choices for even more of a unique twist to the guestbook! Some of the photo examples at right show how you can personalize an artistic canvas without a photo, like the Heart Rock design (top left canvas in photo at right), or another beautiful design like our popular Wedding Vows canvas (top right) which features the most important words you'll say on the big day! The Forever and Always theme (bottom left) is a great example of how you can create a canvas in different sizes and shapes and also with the option to include more than one photo and the Photo Sentiments design (bottom right) is a great way to create a canvas with a photo and text that is important to you. You can use your personal vows that you've written yourself, a favorite quote, or even the lyrics from the song you will first dance to as husband and wife – the options are endless!
Believe it or not, the new guestbook trend doesn't stop at pretty canvases. As you can see from the photo we came across on Pinterest (at left), people have been creating personalized photo puzzles, like the Love Connection Photo Puzzle (at right), and having their guests sign or leave a note on the front or back of the individual puzzle pieces! We love how unique this idea is and thanks to the wide selection of PMall's Personalized Puzzles, you can personalize a puzzle in many different sizes, shapes, colors, and designs – some even come with a personalized tin to store them in! You can create one large puzzle (our largest puzzle includes 551 pieces) or personalize a couple of smaller puzzles and after the wedding you can put them together and frame them for one big piece of art or a beautiful wall collage! Think of all the fun you'll have spending time as husband and wife, reading all the sweet and funny notes your loved ones have left you as you put the puzzles together. You could even bring the puzzle along on the honeymoon to put together during your downtime!
The last outside-the-gift-box idea we wanted to share with you was one of the most unique ideas we came across while surfing Pinterest.
Brides and grooms have started putting out calendars and asking guests to sign on their birthday or anniversary. How creative is that!?
The only thing that would make this idea better is to use a photo calendar like PMall's Through The Year Photo Wall Calendar (at right) so that it's more personal and so you'll have beautiful pictures to look at throughout the year! It's a great way to learn all the important dates for your spouse's family that you'll need to know once you're married and it's a great way to break the ice between your guests, as well!
So what do you think!? Are you a fan of the new trend of unique guestbooks? Have you or are you going to use one of these ideas or one of your own? We'd love to hear all about them! Tell us by leaving a comment or by emailing us at email@example.com!

STANFORD -- Junior forward Chiney Ogwumike had 23 points and 17 rebounds Friday night as fourth-ranked Stanford overcame a nightmarish shooting and rebounding performance to hold off Fresno State 72-61 in the season opener at Maples Pavilion.
A team hoping to reach its sixth consecutive Final Four didn't show championship caliber play in making just 1 of 16 from 3-point range. The Bulldogs got 25 offensive rebounds in outrebounding the Cardinal 44-41.
"It's a gut-check," said Ogwumike, who also had four blocked shots.
Senior forward Joslyn Tinkle had 20 points as Stanford went inside when its 3-point shooting went nowhere. Point guard Amber Orrange added 14 points and five assists in an otherwise inauspicious game for Stanford.
"Our team will learn from this, and we're lucky we didn't lose because of it," coach Tara VanDerveer said. "But we will in the future if we don't correct it."
The Bulldogs, meanwhile, looked impressive in the Fresno State coaching debut of Raegen Pebley, who took over this season for Adrian Wiggins. Ki-Ki Moore of San Francisco led the Bulldogs with 18 points, and Taylor Thompson had 16 points and 10 rebounds.
"We attacked them well," Moore said. "They were slower than us. They couldn't keep up with us."
Fresno State tied the score 42-42 with 15:02 left before Stanford went on a 14-2 run to take control of the game. The Cardinal went to a zone defense to stop the Bulldogs guards from driving through the lane for easy layups.
VanDerveer isn't worried about the team's shooting based on what she has seen at practices. Despite all those misses from long range the Cardinal shot 49.2 percent from the field.
"We have excellent shooters," she said. "That's not my worry. Our defense is my biggest concern. We needed to be more aggressive."

Swiss Super Bike
The streamlined, enclosed Acabion GTBO is capable of going from 0 to 250 mph in under 20 seconds
Stand by to be shocked. The Acabion GTBO is a streamlined, enclosed motorcycle with the most astounding set of vital statistics we've ever seen. It has an extremely low frontal area and the aerodynamics of a bullet. It tips the scales at just a fraction the weight of a Formula One race car yet has much less rolling resistance and it is powered by a 700 bhp turbocharged motor giving it a power-to-weight ratio better than anything ever conceived for road usage and is claimed to be capable of 450 km/h.
That's some claim because the recently established land speed record for motorcycles is 565 km/h. The GTBO is also claimed to be capable of reaching 400 km/h from standstill in under 20 seconds (i.e. 0-400 km/h). AND it's road registerable, AND Swiss-based Acabion intends to build 26 GTBOs over the next four years.
The GTBO is a two-plus-two-wheel concept. It runs on four wheels at low speeds and two wheels at high speeds. The sidewheels can be ordered as lightweight racing-versions (pictured) or with heavier but more practical struts with a compact hydraulic drive so you can manoeuvre quite easily.
The aim is to offer a limited edition, very expensive super vehicle with Swiss precision engineering and craftsmanship and a performance factor that is truly remarkable – the power-to weight of the GTBO is 0.51 kg per horsepower – compare that to the Ultima GTR (1.38 kg/bhp), Koenigsegg CCXR (1.16), Pagani Zonda F (2.07), Bugatti Veyron (1.89), Tramontana (1.74), Bristol Fighter T (1.58) and the Gumpert Apollo (1.53).
For the records, the GTBO's figure is almost twice as good as the current crop of supersports 1000cc road bikes (1.0-1.1) and compares favourably to the 2007 F1 Ferrari (0.71) which Kimi Raikkonen used to smoke the field in the first Formula One Grand Prix of the season and Casey Stoner's Ducati (0.60) which streeted Valentino Rossi's Yamaha M1 (0.62) in the opening round of MotoGP in Qatar.
We'll be reporting in much more detail on the remarkable beastie in the next few days including an interview with the man behind the project. Sign up here to be notified of the full article and read on for more details and images.

'Gossip Girl,' Season 6, Episode 7, 'Save the Last Chance': TV Recap
Will Serena end up with Dan? Chuck with Blair? Nate with a cougar? These are the deep questions to ponder as we near the end of the fabulous badness that is XOXO, Gossip Girl.
On tonight's episode, Bart Bass has destroyed Chuck's house looking for the oil documents he hid in the painting. The documents that Ivy stole. She shows up at Chuck's apartment. She says she wants revenge on Lily. Note that Lily is the only one Chuck and Bart love. Allegedly. After blackmailing Bart and Chuck, Ivy walks down the hall to schmoochie Steve Baldwin, aka William van der Woodsen, Serena and Eric's father. Wait, isn't he Lola's father too?
We KNEW that Ivy was cheating on Rufus. That relationship was too gross to live.
Dan and Serena are all in bed. Which is still way better than Dan and Blair in bed, which was wrong.
Nate is begging for his paper, The Spectator. He's deep in debt. Unbeknownst to him, the lender is Bart Bass.
Blair is putting together a Barney's pop-up shop and the gift bags must be perfect. Serena tries to make amends but Blair is having none of it. Nelly randomly dropped in to say Blair is too old to be a Queen Bee.
Serena comes up with a plan to make Blair popular again by using her former almost daughter-in-law Sage. Sage falls for it, and Blair tells Sage she wants a meeting with the five head girls who rule the private schools. Also, berets are the new headband fyi.
Bart tells Lily all about Ivy's plan. Lily says Chuck will never hurt her, and she'll call Rufus and try to get the microfilm back. Rufus says he's not getting involved – but then he sees Ivy with the faux Baldwin.
Chuck is thinking about taking Ivy's deal. Nate would help him but Daddy Bass is calling in his loan covering the Spectator unless Nate helps him break Chuck. Chuck is planning to turn Lily into the feds along with his dad. Ivy is happy. But Chuck is playing with her because he'd never hurt Lily.
Dan apologizes to Chuck and Nate, and then apologizes to Rufus as well. Rufus then boots Ivy out of the loft.
Sage discovers that Blair and Serena played her. Oh oh, there's going to be trouble at Blair's tonight, because the feds are going to be there too. Ivy finds out Chuck played her too – because Nate gave up his best friend to save the paper.
The party! The party! The new Queen Bees show up and plan to pan the whole thing. But then they love the clothes so much they can't help themselves!
Bart tells Ivy he's divorcing Lily, but Ivy says it's not enough. She tells Bart to strip, because that will humiliate Lily. When she goes to give Bart the microfiche, it's gone. That's because Rufus snagged it and gave it to Lily. Ivy is freaking out and calling for her secret love, William, but he's not texting her back.
Awwwh, now Lily and Rufus are having a moment and talking about how they were family for a long time. Now Blair and Serena are having a moment. Chuck goes to talk to Lily about the microfiche, but she throws it in the fire and says Bart would never hurt her and she believes Chuck is the one who sold her out.
Ivy tells William that Lily burned the documents. William is most worried that Lily is still with Bart.
Chuck is sad. He says there is no other way to get his dad back. Blair says at least they're still together. Chuck says no because he didn't fulfill his end of the bargain. Can I just say that Blair looks particularly bad in tonight's episode? That really garish eye make-up is not working at all. Neither did that pleated skirt and non-matching top with the headband. I'm just not feeling it.
Serena asks Dan if she's really the one for him. Dan says yes. They're the only ones who are happy. Ugggh, although then Georgina calls and Dan tells her he's writing a Serena chapter for his book.
Chuck, Nate and Blair are all miserable.
Next week: A couple weeks late, it's Thanksgiving time for Gossip Girl.

A field commonly used as a playground was the site for police and EMT's Thursday afternoon...as a little girl was caught between her bike and a truck.
News 12's Kate Tillotson is on your side with how the girl miraculously escaped unharmed.
It's what's left of a little girl's bike...some bent handlebars, a dented tire and a seat now sitting on the front steps.
Robert Brown/Driver's Grandfather: "That's a violation. Just to spin a wheel anyway is a violation and that's just reckless driving," says Robert Brown. He bought a Cadillac for his grandson, Joaquin Simkins, who is now charged with reckless driving and having no proof of insurance.
His friend, Clifton Jones, the driver of this truck, is also charged with reckless driving after striking a 6-year-old girl riding her bike.
Yvonne Briggs, the girl's neighbor, tells News 12, "They like to play out there in the road and out there on the field, sometimes when they come in from school."
And it's from this field - in front of the girl's home - that she was whisked away in an ambulance...not seriously hurt but very shaken up.
Tire marks remain from where the two teens were doing donuts.
"You know, they need to be more careful," says Briggs.
On the scene, a deputy handed out multiple tickets as well as an April court date for both Simkins and Jones to appear.
Some neighbors hoping it will serve as a warning to young drivers in an area with lots of kids.
"I hate to see any child get hurt," says Briggs. "There's a whole lot of kids out here."
The little girl was taken to the Aiken regional hospital, just to be safe, but she suffered no major injuries. As for the two teenage drivers, they'll appear in court on April 17...but today, both drove away with their licenses.

Here's a great idea – add an option to Google Maps to show bike paths and directions in the same place you'd get driving or public transit directions. It ain't so yet, but it could be if this petition can catch the attention of Google's map teams. There are tons of online city bike maps, some already mashed up into Google's maps like this New York City map. Seeing how nicely it plays puts other city bike maps to shame (Portland, Seattle – warning: Big downloads). Having bike routes available in online mapping apps would be a great step forward for many cities, and a big encouragement for those who might just go by bike with a bit more information.
Sign up for the SXSW Urban Ride on Upcoming. Here's a PDF version of the flyer, like if you wanted to plaster it all over your garage or maybe make a nice hat.
I've read the Aeloian Ride website a few times now, trying to grok it, after getting a tip from Zannestars and think they're def onto something; especially, if the inflatable suit is combined with Aero corduroys (no, I don't make this stuff up)!
Inspired by a love for bikes, city cruising, critical mass, costumes, sillyness + things that inflate, i decided to make a free, mass participatory event with a sense of humor. It excites those riding as well as delights those watching, all the while transforming the landscape into a playground of windfilled shapes.
That looks like lots of fun and I pinged them to see if they can make it to SXSW.
The best part of our BBQ @ SXSW is all the schwag and giveaways. We've got

The P. I. proclaims the immanent demise of bike messengers in today's issue. It's true I'm sure that the number of messengers are down, but I doubt Messengers are the urban buffalo of the late part of the first decade of this millennium. The reports of messenger death are greatly exaggerated from what I can tell – check the following: Transportation Alternatives from 1996 (The industry is too squeezed to pay messengers in NYC); The Economist from a decade later; the Sydney Morning Herald and BCBusiness from just last year. Meanwhile, if you like your media closer to home, check out Pilder's blog, of one of the messengers in the PI article.

ANTIOCH -- The unexpected death of a well-liked recent Antioch High School graduate has rocked the school community and his baseball teammates.
Shaquille Sayles, 19, died Wednesday after apparently hitting a tree while riding an all-terrain vehicle in Philomath in Oregon's Willamette Valley.
Sayles, who grew up in Oakland with his mother before moving to Antioch with his aunt and uncle, graduated this year from Antioch High.
"He was just a great kid with an infectious personality. It's just tragic; everyone has been thrown for a loop," said Nahleen Cloninger, whose son was friends and teammates with Sayles.
"I don't think he knew how to hate. He was just such a positive person, and he really cherished the little things," said Ben Juarez, his high school baseball coach.
Garlic fries at San Francisco Giants games and queso dip at Chili's brought a smile to his face, Juarez said.
"I was very proud of him; he grew up to be a fine young man," said Stella Owens, Sayles' mother. "I had high hopes for him that he would be a productive citizen in society with morals and values. I think he accomplished that."
Nicknamed "Shaq" by most who knew him, Sayles played center field and wore No. 3 for the Panthers the past three years. He was enrolled in Linn-Benton Community College and living in Albany, Ore., hoping to one day play at Oregon State University.
"Shaq didn't really put himself before anybody else. He just had so much love for everybody else; you just felt safe when you were around him," said Ronny Brohman, Sayles' friend.
Brohman said he and Sayles met playing catch on the first day of baseball practice, and were almost like brothers.
"He used to say we were like brothers from different mothers," said Brohman, adding that the two often referred to each other as "guardian angels."
Sayles, a slick-fielding, power-hitting outfielder, lived with a relative in Detroit over the summer and worked so he could afford junior college, Juarez said.
Brohman, who was Sayles' roommate at Linn-Benton, shared stories about how the two had their own vernacular, a similar love of pizza rolls and dreams of playing college baseball together.
"We stayed on each other about everything, especially school and sports. (Shaq's) main thing was just to be successful," he said.
Benton County sheriff's Capt. Greg Ridler said Sayles was visiting friends Tuesday night and early Wednesday and had gone riding ATVs with a friend at about 4 a.m. The two got separated, and Sayles was later found seriously injured. He was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital.
Ridler said this week deputies are investigating the crash.
Brohman said the two had been riding earlier in the day, and he repeatedly warned Sayles to be careful and slow down.
Word of the fatality spread around campus Wednesday morning, Juarez said. After school that day, several current and former Antioch High players and friend gathered in center field.
"There was just a great outpouring of love and support," he said.
The Associated Press contributed to this report. Contact Paul Burgarino at 925-779-7164. Follow him at Twitter.com/paulburgarino.
The Antioch High School baseball community is trying to help Sayles' mother raise the $4,000 for transportation costs to bring her son home for burial. The account is set up at Wells Fargo Bank, account No. 8660574453 and is for Stella Owens/Shaquille Sayles.

"Pop Shots," the popular halftime entertainment at the Swather Varsity boys basketball games has been a very successful fundraiser for the After Prom Committee.
Shooters pay $1 to take a shot at a free throw during half-time. If the shooter sinks the shot, he or she walks away with a two-liter bottle of pop.
Over the season, the Pop Shot competition has increased dramatically in popularity.
"The first game, we had about 50, now we have over 100 shooters crammed into just a few minutes," said Anne Geidel of the After Prom Committee.
Geidel said thus far, the fundraiser has been a very good funding stream.
"We can raise about $70 to $100 per half-time," she said.
Geidel said the simplicity of the fundraiser is part of its success.
"Ty [Rhodes, USD 460 Athletic Director] likes us to get cleared off about five minutes before half-time is over. We've gotten really efficient, we have four balls, two at each end, and we've gotten a great crew of people taking dollars, people rebounding and handing out tickets to trade for a pop," she said.

Classrooms GigglesI was looking for some fun items for summer school this year and couldn't resist picking these up. Instead of waiting until summer school I put them up in my classroom as soon as they arrived. My 1st Graders laughed so hard I didn't think I would get them calmed down. Thanks U.S. Toy for making another teacher's day.

BlackBerry's Chen Does Apparent About-Face on Handsets
BlackBerry is betting it can once again make money from selling smartphones.
That seems like an about-face for Chief Executive John Chen, who just three months ago appeared to largely write off that part of the business as a future source of growth.
Mr. Chen said Friday that the Canadian smartphone maker plans to relaunch production of its older BlackBerry 7 mobile device because of strong global demand. He also touted upcoming launches of new devices aimed at emerging markets and another phone — known as the Classic — targeting BlackBerry's traditional business customer base, to help boost revenue and generate profit.
"I hope nobody thinks we don't take seriously the handset business," Mr. Chen told investors on the company's fourth-quarter earnings call.
BlackBerry reported a loss of $423 million, or 80 cents a share, for its fiscal fourth quarter ended March 1, but continues to expect to start generating a profit in fiscal 2016. Mr. Chen said the handset business itself will also return to profitability by that time.
The company's bullishness on the handset business likely comes as a surprise to many.
The Waterloo, Ontario-based firm first rose to the top of the tech world on the popularity of its mobile devices. But it crashed from its perch in recent years as businesses and consumers flocked to more compelling offerings from Apple Inc., Samsung Electronics Co. and others.
In December, Mr. Chen signaled the firm's future rested on selling software and services such as BBM, its popular messaging application. Many analysts and investors took that to mean the executive believed the hyper-competitive handset business lacked potential to generate profits.
To be sure, focus on software and services remains central to BlackBerry's recovery strategy. Mr. Chen said Friday he has abandoned the company's past efforts of giving away software and instead is focused on selling it.
"I don't find the practice (of giving away software) very sensible," he said.
At the same time, Mr. Chen also said the handset business is important, reassuring investors the new production run of the BlackBerry 7 phones will be done at a profit.
"I have no intention of losing money on handsets," he said.

Idaho Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 59.1. Additurs or Remittiturs in Lieu of New Trial.
(a) Acceptance or rejection. If a trial court conditionally grants or denies a new trial subject to either an additur or remittitur, the party to whom it is directed shall have 42 days from entry of the order in which to accept or reject the same. If such party files a notice of appeal, the appeal shall not constitute an acceptance nor rejection of the additur or remittitur and such party shall not be required to accept or reject the additur or remittitur until the determination of the appeal.
(b) Effect of appeal. If a party to whom an additur or remittitur is directed is successful on appeal, the case shall thereafter be processed as provided in the opinion determining the appeal. If the order of the trial court granting a conditional new trial is affirmed, the party to whom the additur or remittitur was directed shall have fourteen (14) days from the date of issuance of the appellate remittitur in which to accept or reject the additur or remittitur in a manner consistent with the appellate opinion.

FILE - In this file photo taken on Wednesday, Oct.17, 2012, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad speaks to journalists during a press conference in Kuwait, where he attends the first summit of the Asia Cooperation Dialogue (ACD). (AP Photo/Gustavo Ferrari, File)
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) -- Iranian state TV is reporting the country's president has dismissed the health minister after her ministry put out a statement criticizing authorities for not providing money to import medicine.
The Thursday report says Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has replaced Marzieh Vahid Dastjerdi, the sole female member of the Cabinet, by a temporary caretaker.
Last week her ministry in a statement said the Central Bank had not allocated a budget to import medicine, but provided hard currency for importing pet food, horse saddles and dog collars.
The country faces a hard currency shortage linked to the West's oil and banking sanctions on Iran. This has in turn fueled the political struggle between Ahmadinejad and his critics, in particular hardliners aligned with the clerical establishment.
Parliamentarians have also accused Ahmadinejad of underfunding medicine.

Remember, this is the old Spectrum, this is Philly on a cold Saturday singing Silent Night in the lots, chanting Lets Go Flyers and doing the wave at setbreak, creating a NYE vibe...and the band had to respond...a true classic.
Then again, what December '99 Phish did with this setlist is pretty damn good in its own right. Every song played is at least above average (a really strong Hood/Mike's Groove to open Set I, that frisky Sneakin' Sally), with the Ghost particularly grandiose, spacey, and chock full of Trey solo goodness (how the F is this version not on the jamming chart?), the 2001 a chilled-out dancefest worthy of any of the great '97 versions, and the DWD an incendiary set-closer that foregoes Type II for straightforward kickass string-shredding jamming. Pretty much the entire second frame is one long segue, and the wave of noise at the end of DWD confirms what the Philly fans thought of it all.
I'm sure lightning will strike me the second I hit the post button, but I would take this show over Big Cypress with a gun to my head. Big Cypress has higher peaks, but this show is, as they say, all killer and no filler. An absolutely amazing show.
just wanted to post this link to an amazing remastered version. i searched for a long time of a good quality version of this. i think all the tapers got caught up in the groove that night and screwed up their equipment. thank you to Mr. Miner for posting it on it's 11th anniversary, and special thanks to "Kenny Powers" for this truly epic show in CD quality sound.
did anyone have money on a harry hood opener? good hood leads nicely into mike's song. holy crap, they are trying to pull off another hampton 97! gadzooks! like hampton, they really rock this mike's song out. trey navigates through the dark nether regions of this song before turning the corner into simple. hydrogen does its thing before gordo leads us into a very inspired weekapaugh. page really steps up his game on this one swapping licks with gordo and trey. circus gives everyone a much needed breather before scent brings the crowd right back up again. cavern does the job closing down an amazing first set. that could work as an excellent 2nd set at almost any other show.
they come right out of the gate with a nice funky boogie on reggae woman. while not particulalry jammy, it is well played. then they crank right into ac/dc bag, but wait, they start monkeying with the intro. after weaving back and forth between the two, they finally land in a red hot sneaking sally through the alley. this is must hear. sneaking sally goes for a nice ride before working its way into a very impressive ghost. it is a very well textured and well paced jam that eventually finds its way into a very good 2001. page is all over this one. down with disease is an excellent show closer. they stretch this one out nicely before whipping it all the way around back home. possum, closes this one out in style.
from start to finish, this show is a quality contender for best of the year. excellent playing, excellent set list.
set 1:
hood, mike's-weekapaugh, mule
set 2:
Show Highlight:
Sneakin Sally -> Ghost -> 2001
Had a fantastic seat one section away from Page side 4th row off floor (next to rail to special VIP area where nobody can walk through). The band opened with "Harry Hood"! Yes, I understand that you would understand what the reactions would be - let just say YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND IF YOU WERE NOT THERE! Never in my life (including 128 Grateful Dead shows) have I ever heard such reactions in a show. The crowd was so loud, I could barely hear the band for a minute. The only other similarity to this crowd sound would be the tape of the Grateful Dead 3/14/1990 when the band broke out with "Loose Lucy" for the first time in 16 years! Talk about EUPHORIA - that was Harry Hood did to the Philly crowd! Mike's Song>Simple>Hydrogen>Weekapaug was literally icing the cake. Seriously, like someone stated early in the review, I could have left the show and walked out as a happy camper! It was fantastic! Circus was a very welcome breather and a very good version. Scent was interesting as I rarely ever see this song, therefore it was very cool to watch the breakdown of Page, Trey, Fish & Mike interplay. Cavern was a great finish to a fantastic set!
The 2nd set was one for the ages. Boogie On, Sneakin'>Ghost>2001>DWD was absolutely stellar with excellent interplay and segueing as there was a flow taking us on a true trip. I'm for a copy of this show as It's My Favorite 1.0 show ever. Call me crazy (up to 196 shows), like I said in the beginning, this show was the MAIN REASON why I ended up in Big Cypress instead of SCI in Portland. Glad I made the trip to the Everglades....
SET TWO- Boogie > Sneaking Sally, Breathtaking energy and well played, This is the year of Mike. He continues to empress both with his sense of style and well played rhythm. Ghost > 2001. I enjoyed these versions much more that I got in Albany October, this was nothing short of a dance off. The crowd responded with dancing the hell out of the music and Phish was really on track of continuing this scene. Disease to end the show, ENERGY TIMES ENERGY= PHISH to the 2nd POWER. Encore_ Another Gordo song, Possum. Wow! Like noted before, one of the best shows of 99 IMO.

Canada, 2011, 122 Minute Running Time
Genre/Subjects: Drama, Thriller
Program: Contemporary World CinemaLanguage: French English Sub-Titles
Based on the novel You Always End Up Paying, by Jean Lemieux, Fear of Water follows Sgt. André Surprenant, a police officer and father of a rebellious teenage daughter trying to live an ordinary life after a marital breakup. His work is run-of-the-mill, rural law enforcement in the Îles-de-la-Madeleine region, a cluster of islands off the coast of Quebec, an ironic choice as he's afraid of water and can't even make it to a swimming lesson to try to overcome his phobia. He has support on the job from his partner, Geneviève, who is helplessly, awkwardly, secretly in love with him.
But his days of traffic tickets and paperwork are interrupted when the local mayor's daughter is found raped and murdered. Just as he sinks his teeth into a real crime, a pushy and arrogant police detective from Montreal arrives to show everybody how a crime investigation is really done. While the big shot fixes on a suspect with a long rap sheet, Surprenant quietly asks questions behind the scenes and begins carefully assembling evidence to find the real culprit. The life of the victim is shown in flashbacks as he and Geneviève question the locals, their grasp of the young woman playing in counterpoint to their burgeoning relationship. In the end, Surprenant finds that even the most satisfying police work can be a source of sorrow.

'Seinfeld' in the Age of Twitter
The Twitter account Modern Seinfeld (@SeinfeldToday) popped up Sunday evening, imagining characters of the legendary sitcom living in the age of social media. What would edgy Elaine write on Yelp to pan a nasty restaurant? How would brusque Kramer interact with employees at the Apple store? What would neurotic George's profile look like on an online dating website? By Monday afternoon, it had more than 28,000 followers – and seemingly everyone was getting in on the game.
The man behind the account: BuzzFeed sports editor Jack Moore. Moore, who admits being addicted to the show, says he was tweeting modern ideas back and forth with a friend last night.
"I realized this could probably hold a whole account, and I had a lot of ideas for it," he said.
Moore said he isn't worried about running out of ideas. He plans to tweet at least twice a day, after the immediate buzz wears off.
"I just started the account last night about 6:30," he said. "…It's kind of crazy."
Here are some of the account's best tweets.
Elaine has a bad waiter at a nice restaurant, her negative Yelp review goes viral, she gets banned. Kramer accidentally joins the Tea Party.

A series of storms is headed to the Truckee/Tahoe region, according to the National Weather Service in Reno, although it's unclear how much snow and rain is expected to fall by the end of the week.
"Significant precipitation in the form of rain and snow is likely to begin Thursday afternoon, although how much will fall is still uncertain," according to a Hazardous Weather Outlook. "Snow levels may rise above 8,000 feet Thursday into Friday before falling over the weekend."
Temperatures dipped Sunday night as a cold front swept through the region, bringing with it a small dusting of snow. The low temperature Monday is forecast at 0 degrees, according to NWS.
As the week progresses, high temperatures are expected to rise into the mid- to upper-40s, with the first chance for snow and rain on Wednesday.
According to the website tahoeweatherdiscussion.com, things could look a bit more like a Tahoe January on Friday and into the weekend.
"Total liquid looks to be around 3-4 inches through Saturday. Above 8,000 ft. we could pick up 3-4 feet with this storm with lots of rain at lake level," the website's Monday morning update reads. "The snow levels crash down to lake level on Saturday with moist flow continuing behind the cold front. It's hard to say how much snow falls in the lower elevations based on the timing of the snow levels coming down, but 1-2 feet possible above 7,000 feet and up to a foot at lake level. We'll have to watch closely during the storm."

The more spacious layout of the Cohen-Joliet building made counting the ballots a lot simpler in Tuesday's election.
The official home of the Stark County Board of Elections remains a cramped old building on Third Street NW. But for the second election in a row, the counting of unofficial results was completed at the county-owned Cohen-Joliet facility on Regent Avenue NE.
"There's room to create a natural flow here," explained Board of Elections member Curt Braden.
Elections officials hope to move into the site permanently following renovations — perhaps by next summer.
Final unofficial results were tabulated and certified at 11:01 p.m. It was one of the earliest finishes since the county switched from punch cards to touch-screen voting machines following the fallout from the 2004 presidential election and the ensuing Help America Vote Act.
Board Director Jeff Matthews said the speedy finish was helped by the more efficient layout of the building. He said elections also added more regional drop-off points for poll workers to deliver machines and memory cards, cutting down on congestion at the counting site, saving even more time.
An off-year election such as this typically does not draw many voters to the polls, and this was no exception.
With no countywide issue on the ballot, turnout for this election was down. Of the 248,752 registered voters in Stark, 63,237 (25.4 percent) cast ballots. That pales in comparison to the last three similar elections (2001, 2005 and 2009), where turnout ranged between 38 and 40 percent locally.

text: So two things that have passed by me via the internet recently... Both passed on by multiple people who are reasonably reputable sources and who do not normally pass these sorts of things around -- including people from within the academic community and professionals in directly related industries/services. If anyone cares to look, this could make for an interesting discussion. Money as Debt. (~45 minutes) Story of Stuff. (~20 minutes) These two video essays confirm some of what I already feel about the current state of the world. I'm aware that this confirmation makes it suspect, yet the simplicity of the logic in recognizing the "wrongness" of what these realities entail seems so gobsmackingly obvious that I'm constantly surprised that no one else is outraged. That being said, the problems these two videos illustrate are ones that are extremely difficult to envision solutions for, and are perhaps too ingrained into who we are to see past. So, what do y'all think? Is this anything worth getting in an uproar about? Is this just the same shit, different day? Is action demanded? Is the "science" problematic? Is there a solution? What does this do to your moral compass? What, if any, are the ethical imperatives here?

I have two TP-Link powerline adapters: one connected to my router and the other connected to my PS3 in my basement. I also use the PS3 media server program on my pc. I put in the IP address which the same as my pc's IP address except the last number of that address is one number below or above my pc's IP address.
I then go to Internet connection settings on my ps3 and setup an custom connection using the IP address from the PS3 media server. I also put in the submet, default router(which I think is the default gateway. I test the connection and it completes step 1 by establishing the IP address but the internet connection fails. What am I doing wrong? Is my adapter setup wrong, is there something on the PS3 media server program on my pc that needs to be configured? I need assistance on what I'm missing.
