CeBIT Open Source Project Lounge -- Debian GNU/Linux
Debian -- the free Linux distributionBy
Debian is among the 15 projects that will present their work at CeBIT, offering a free Linux operating system Java-written platform for knowledge management.
In a nutshell: How would you describe your project in one or two sentences?
GNU/Linux distribution with a HUGE software volume. Easy to use and maintain.
When did the project begin?
How many active members does the project have?
Core developers: around 1,000. Otherwise engaged: countless others.
How did the project come into being?
At the time Debian was created the whole concept of a Linux "distribution" was a new one. So with Debian, Ian Murdock aimed for an open distribution along the model of Linux and GNU. Debian was to be carefully and faithfully crafted and maintained and attended to with equal care. The project began as a small, tight community of free software hackers and grew step by step to a large, well organized association of developers and users.
Why should a CeBIT visitor come to your booth?
For example, to experience the brand new Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 "Lenny," our most current stable version that will be completed in February, inclusive of an expanded, reworked installation system, a slew of internal improvements (such as dpkg-Trigger), a broad support of hardware architectures from embedded systems in routers through desktop computers to large servers, and with a naturally huge volume of current software.
Who do you make your software for?
Debian is conceived as a universal platform and is, therefore, well suited for just about anyone. This is evident in its large software volume (over 20,000 software packages), versatility (from games and office software to server applications), support of hardware architectures (from routers and NAS devices, desktop computers with AMD and Intel CPUs, to SPARC- and S390-based servers).
Where do you see your biggest current challenge?
The tuning and stabilizing of single components under such a huge volume while still adhering to our quality guidelines. Of course, this affects any estimations of when a release will be ready and has a natural effect on motivation.
If you could hire a full-time project developer now, what problem should he or she be ready to solve?
Paying developers to work on certain aspects of the distribution was done in the past and not always positively welcomed. However, if we were to pay developers, generally the improvement in software quality would make it worth it and other projects might profit from it as well. Unfortunately, and despite all the work put in since the beginning of the project, a number of bugs have amassed that, for whatever reason (time, bigger restructuring, etc.), weren't able to be fixed.
Under which license is the software currently offered?
All software in the Debian "main" archive is free according to our free software guidelines, is essentially available in the source code, allows for modification and free distribution even in modified form, and has no restrictions as to use by any individuals or groups. Additional archives for distributable software don't fall under these criteria and have to be activated after installation.

The tiny tardigrade, also known as the moss piglet, doesn't let its size stand in the way of its magnificence. No larger than the head of a pin, the tardigrade has proved to be one of nature's toughest survivors. Laboratory experimenters have immersed it in liquid helium down to a savage -272 degrees Celsius. They have left it at -192 degrees Celsius for 20 months, and cooked it for a week at 92 degrees Celsius in ether, alcohol and other noxious chemicals. Restored to normal temperature and given water, the tardigrade strolls away. Some specimens were brought back to life after 120 years in a dry and dusty museum.
Obviously the tardigrade has abilities human beings lack. Tardigrades dwell in mud, damp seashore sand, or on the water film surrounding the leaves of mosses and lichens. Some varieties are entirely aquatic. Zoologically they fall somewhere between worms and insects and can move about by wriggling on four pairs of stubby legs. There are tardigrades worldwide except in the tropics and Antarctica. A single gram of dried moss has been known to yield 22,000 of them.
Since 2007, tardigrades have also returned alive from studies in which they were exposed to the vacuum of outer space for a few days in low earth orbit. My guess is that the tardigrades will be around long after the homo sapiens make the world uninhabitable for their own species.
How does this soft-bodied creature have the unique ability to switch itself off and on under extreme circumstances--enabling it to spread a normal lifespan of 18 months over some 60 years? How does this armored arthropod last so long? One reason may be its shape--an oval or ellipse, and its series of flexible shell-like body pieces.
More cool lessons from nature's superior design are available here. I won't hesitate to confess that much of this was copied from TSUI Design and Research's interesting page. See for thineself.

Indeed, in recent months, many analysts and experts have advocated that the government float sovereign bonds, which will bring in fiscal discipline and also set a benchmark for Indian companies to borrow overseas. Foreign currency inflows could have a soothing effect on the markets and help stabilise the currency.
The biggest drag on the rupee has been high oil consumption. More than two-thirds of India's crude oil requirement are satiated by imported oil and a subsidised pricing regime has meant that imports have continued to grow despite high global prices. To soften the impact of oil companies' demand for US dollars, analysts have been suggesting that the central bank supply them from its near $300 billion of foreign exchange reserves.

WASHINGTON — Hard on the heels of shuttering several bus companies during the past several weeks, FMCSA ordered another motorcoach company — Santana Busline Inc. — to "immediately cease unauthorized interstate passenger service" Wednesday.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration also declared the Springfield, Mass.-based company to be an imminent public safety hazard "for failing to ensure its drivers and vehicles complied with federal safety regulations."
FMCSA in a news release explained that in October 2012 Santana Busline was denied DOT operating authority for interstate passenger service because of its close affiliation with another company, Santana Xpress Inc., which had been placed out-of-service in April 2012 for an unsatisfactory safety rating and failure to pay civil penalties.
Then in January this year state commercial vehicle inspectors found that Santana Busline was operating unmarked 15-passenger vans and when FMCSA looked into it further, concluded that Santana Busline was operating without DOT authority and in "blatant disregard" of federal safety rules.
This included such things as drivers failing to comply with Hours of Service requirements, allowing unqualified drivers to operate its vehicles in an unsafe manner, failure to conduct periodic safety inspections, lack of vehicle repair and maintenance and knowingly dispatching vehicles with safety defects.
"We will not allow an interstate bus, van or trucking company to disregard the law and to disregard public safety," said FMCSA Administrator Anne S. Ferro of the agency's action.

DELTA TOWNSHIP - Arson is suspected in a fire that destroyed two Grand Ledge School buses Friday morning and damaged a third.
The fire was reported at around 5 o'clock in the morning at the school's bus garage on Nixon road in Delta Township.
The chief of the Delta Township Fire Department says arson is the most likely cause considering it was raining heavily, the two buses that caught fire were 300 feet apart, and the buses had not been used in nearly 2 days because of school break. There is also evidence that some sort of fuel was used. There are no current suspects, but the investigation is ongoing.
Along with the two buses that were destroyed, a third bus was damaged as well as the door to the bus garage. The fire chief estimates $250,000 worth of damages.

Cutting greenhouse gas emission need not be a distant dream or expensive. Advocates of co-firing bio-mass with coal or natural gas say that it is an effective way for utilities to begin now to reduce their carbon footprints.
Biomass consists of any fuel produced from organic matter. That includes forest waste, agricultural waste, organic waste and municipal waste. Biomass produced from wood chips, for example, can be mixed with certain types of coal before the new compound is combusted. It can all be accomplished, say experts, without having to change the fuel-firing system.
"It is a technology that is available and it does not require a substantial investment by utilities," says Janusz Kozinski, dean of the College of Engineering at the University of Saskatchewan. "Effectively, there are zero emissions associated with some bio-fuels."
About 20 utilities in North America are now using wood chips to replace 5-25 percent of the needed coal or natural gas. State laws that have been enacted to require utilities to offer some green power are the impetus for the changes. Among non-hydro renewable sources, biomass plays a key role today with 7,000 MW of installed capacity and producing 37 billion kilowatt hours of electricity each year, says the U.S. Department of Energy's Energy Information Administration. The Energy Department also says that the co-firing of biomass and fossil-fired fuels is the most immediate step that utilities can take to cut their carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.
Biomass crops, such as trees, absorb CO2. When burned, however, the biomass material releases the CO2 back into the atmosphere. But, such discharges are considered "neutral," meaning that the plants absorbed the same amount as the materials released -- unlike traditional fossil fuels that essentially discharge all new CO2 into the air.
The Energy Department is working with utilities seeking to expand biomass generation. Alliant Energy is developing a combined-cycle plant that uses corn starch as a feedstock. United Technologies, meanwhile, is testing a biomass gasifier coupled with a fuel cell and steam turbine options that run on wood residue. Similarly, Progress Energy is developing a biomass gasification process that uses wood waste. The advantage of using industrial waste byproducts, as opposed to agricultural crops such as corn, is that it does not contribute to food shortages.
According to Dr. Kozinski, it generally takes twice as much biomass to create the same amount of energy as coal. So, one kilogram of coal produces one unit of energy. To replace that, 2 kilograms of biomass would be required. At the same time, any industrial operation utilizing the technology needs to assure it would have a continuous supply of the underlying feedstock while also making certain that the biomass and the coal are compatible before they would be mixed and burned.
Striking Proposition
Building a biomass plant from scratch is a hugely expensive undertaking. Estimates are that it cost twice as much as a coal plant. But, co-firing the two together is working now and especially in Europe that has signed the global warming pact, the Kyoto Protocol. Sweden, for example, gets 19 percent of energy from bark, straw and wood chips and expects to receive 40 percent from such sources by 2020.
The main problem in Europe, however, is that food crops are the central fuel source. By substituting industrial waste, though, utilities could reduce their carbon output without driving up the market value for food commodities. That's what Evergreen BioFuels is trying to do. It says that its woody fibers can be co-fired with coal without the need to replace or retrofit the current plant infrastructure.
"Thirty percent of CO2 emissions are generated by utilities and industry in the U.S," says Mark Drisdelle, CEO of Montreal-based Evergreen. "The Earth doesn't have a decade or more to wait for a solution for climate change."
Why are so few of the nation's utilities using this concept? Until federal legislation is adopted to cap or tax carbon output, Drisdelle says that many power companies don't have the financial or legal incentives. Right now, though, biomass entrepreneurs are in the process of educating more such companies about these types of alternatives.
Mining coal and harvesting biomass are both involved processes. In the final analysis, however, biomass is more attractive, says Drisdelle. Anthracite coal, for example, has more BTUs than bio-fuels. But, it also contains large quantities of sulfur, nitrogen oxide, particulate matter, mercury and CO2. With ever-stricter environmental laws and in a carbon constrained world, the value of facilities that use biomass will rise.
That's been the experience of the Public Service Co. of New Hampshire. Utilities in its neck of the woods are flocking to its door to buy biomass-derived power from it. The company took three well-functioning coal-fired boilers that were profiting and then converted those facilities into ones that could also burn wood chips. The change cost $75 million. But the new 50-megawatt facility actually has lower operational costs and higher earnings. Moreover, the utility's overall emissions have been drastically reduced.
The changes were made because New Hampshire implemented a renewable portfolio standard requiring its own utilities to supply a quarter of its energy from sustainable sources by 2025. Meanwhile, neighboring utilities are also required to offer their customers green options. For now, it's a seller's market in the New England region. That could change if an increasing number of utilities begin offering biomass alternatives.
"The point is if we compare the cost of producing a ton of coal with a ton of wood chips, it is ultimately cheaper to use the industrial waste," says Drisdelle. "If we look at the full life-cycle benefits, bio-energy is better because of the environmental benefits."
Large power plants need viable and cost effective solutions to cut their carbon footprints. Co-firing biomass with prevalent fossil fuels is one answer. It's a striking proposition: Act now to reduce greenhouse gas emissions or wait two decades when arcane technologies are finally commercialized.

For Thomas. I'm sorry you are not in more of these pictures.
I'll keep it short, as this fourth installment (previous years: start here) was a rather uneventful year of daily selfie taking. (Although you might notice that I've lost yet another 20 pounds between March and the summer.</nonhumblebrag>) I managed to take 361 pictures, missing only four days – just like last year. I'm now at a total of 1416 pictures (in 1461 days, 96.9%) between March 26th 2011 and March 26th 2015, resulting in a 90+ seconds 15fps video.

Alternatives needed for when the FSCS levy breaks
Advisers must adopt a united front in tackling FSCS levy.
The history of financial services is littered with well-intentioned initiatives. Always motivated by a real issue that needs addressing, every drive to enhance the industry has seemingly caused a butterfly effect of unintended consequences. Solving one problem often comes at the cost of causing several more.
Stakeholder pensions were designed to provide adequate, affordable retirement savings for the masses with none. But rather than encouraging the poor and disenfranchised to save, the schemes became a must-have vehicle for middle-class offspring, run at great cost to the providers.
Depolarisation was designed to clarify the distinction between types of advice, believing consumers did not grasp the difference between fees and commission. Having identified that two classifications of adviser was too confusing for consumers to understand, the powers that be decided to 'simplify' things by adding a third classification. The public, predictably, remained apathetic and confused.
Now, eight years later, we have the RDR, which is attempting to redefine advice again in a way consumers will understand (or at least bother trying to understand). It remains to be seen whether this will be any more successful in inspiring a public fascination with financial services, but it is pretty much accepted that the new regime will force swathes of the public away from advice completely.
We will also have to wait to discover whether auto-enrolment, the gender directive or any of the other tweaks to legislation being introduced at all levels of financial services regulation are effective in ending confusion in their corners of the industry.
Whatever happens, we may need to remind ourselves that all of these changes were introduced with the best of intentions.
It is worth remembering too that the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) was formed to provide a safety net for consumers and reassure them in the face of growing mistrust of financial services as a whole.
The FSCS levy is not popular, but what tax is? The inherent unfairness is a common grumble; it penalises those who have done nothing wrong. Those responsible for defrauding investors are kicked out of the industry while those left behind are expected to fund the compensation that will make right their wrongs.
But for all these complaints, there are few viable alternatives. Even if stronger, preventative regulation was imposed, the law rarely prevents wrongdoing – locks only keep out honest people.
The unforeseen collapse of several high-profile companies since its introduction has caused the cost of the levy to spiral, exacerbating its reputational problem. In spite of more than one round of government subsidies, the total levy has doubled from £131.7m in 2008-09 to £265m for 2012-13.
But in spite of the levy's unpopularity, the amount it needs to charge is understandable and largely understood.

encaustic - The medium, technique or process of painting with molten wax (mostly beeswax), resin, and pigments that are fused after application into a continuous layer and fixed to a support with heat, and achieves a lustrous enamel appearance. The solvent for encaustic is also heat.
Greek artists were painting with encaustic as long ago as the 5th century BCE. The Roman historian Pliny, who wrote in the 1st century CE, tells us it was being used for the painting of portraits and scenes of mythology on panels, for the coloring of marble and terra cotta, including on architecture, and for work on ivory (probably the tinting of incised lines).
Perhaps the best known of all encaustic work are the Fayum funeral portraits painted in the 1st through 3rd centuries CE by Greek painters in Egypt. A portrait of the deceased, painted either in the prime of life or after death, was placed over the person's mummy as a memorial. These are the only surviving encaustic works from ancient times.
Over the intervening centuries, encaustic was overtaken by many other types of paint — including tempera, oil, and acrylic paints — each of which was cheaper, faster, and easier to work. Artists experimented with encaustic in the 18th and 19th centuries, but it wasn't until the 20th century that its use has really revived. Only with the availability of portable electric heating devices for the melting of the wax has the use of encaustic become sufficiently accessible. Encaustic has become so versatile indeed that many contemporary painters consider it an attractive painting medium again. Modern painters who have used encaustic include Robert Delaunay, Antoine Pevsner, Diego Rivera, and Jasper Johns.
Once applied to a surface, encaustic paint doesn't need to dry. Instead, it needs to cool. Because it cools in minutes, additional coats can be added almost immediately. Once its surface has cooled, encaustic paint presents a permanent finish, and yet the painting can be revised and reworked at any time — whether seconds later or years later. It is a particularly durable paint, because wax is waterproof and over time can retain all the freshness of a newly finished work.
Encaustic can be laid on in delicately thin glazes or super thick encrusted impastos. It can produce satisfying results whether applied with painstaking precision or with flamboyant spontaneity. It can be carved, shaped and molded — built to high or low relief.
Its adhesiveness makes it an excellent collage medium that can be impregnated with a wide variety of other materials.
The surface quality of encaustic paint can be left roughly textured, or given a matte, semi-gloss, or glossy enamel-like finish.
Encaustic painting does not require solvents other than heat. As a consequence, health hazards associated with other solvents are reduced or eliminated. Nevertheless, users should take precautions because wax is flammable, and when hot can burn the skin.
The term "encaustic" can also refer to a painting made in this medium.

Hello. I was wondering if you could tell me the exact brands of the ingredients you use. I tried to recreate this recipe at home but it just tasted like crap. Lol.
Joe January 11, 2013 at 3:10 pm
Hi Jamie,
Thanks for taking the time to write to us. Our recipes are modified for home cooking. Most products we use are purchased through a food distributor that may not be available from your local grocery store. We recommend these brands for the oil recipe.
Oil blend: La Spagnolia. http://www.cataniausa.com/index.html#/PRODUCTS-03-03/
Cheese: We recommend Kraft grated romano cheese
Red pepper flakes: any brand
Chopped garlic: you can purchase or make on your own
Best of luck with the recipe!
Lexi March 25, 2013 at 10:25 am
Hi! Just made this last night for a little get together I was having and it was a HUGE hit. I actually used fresh Italian blend parmesan cheese from the grocery store (Wegmans) and had the shredded not the grated, but it still tasted awesome! I think the key is using a kitchen scale to measure the ingredients…I was shocked how much cheese was 1 oz!
Joe March 25, 2013 at 10:29 am
Hi Lexi,
We're so glad the dipping sauce was a hit! Your substitutes sound great too, it's nice to put your own twist on a dish.
eric April 29, 2013 at 6:36 am
It seems unlike the other recipes shown, for this one you only posted half of it. Any chance of the bread recipe getting posted?
Joe April 29, 2013 at 8:52 am
Hi Eric,
You are correct, this is just for the dipping sauce. We will take your suggestion of sharing our bread recipe into consideration for future postings!
Jack September 10, 2014 at 10:36 am
I make foccia bread on a regular basis using several different recipes, including ones we have picked up in Italy. Would like to try your style bread and noticed that in April 2013 you noted that you were considering adding this recipe to your listing of recipes. Any further thoughts on adding it?
We have used several of your recipes in the past and a couple have become household regulars. That way we can enjoy them at home and always try something new when we go to your Norwell and Randolph restaurants.
Thanks for your consideration to this request
Joe September 12, 2014 at 10:06 am
Hi Jack,
We are so glad that you enjoy our bread so much! Unfortunately, it is the one recipe we cannot give out! However, we suggest if you are craving some, you can always call ahead and order a loaf from the NYAJ location closest to you!
Melissa August 9, 2013 at 4:51 pm
What kind of bread do of use?
Joe August 9, 2013 at 4:59 pm
Hi Melissa,
We would recommend calling your local NYAJoe's to purchase a loaf of our focaccia bread or you can look for any other type of focaccia at your local bakery!
Crystal August 14, 2013 at 2:49 pm
This is one of our favorite snacks for a get together so when I found the recipe I was super exited. When I made though it tasted a little flat. How long do you let everything sit together before serving? I served immediately and I think that's where I went wrong.
Joe August 15, 2013 at 8:48 am
Hi Crystal,
You don't need to let the ingredients sit before serving, but the change in taste may have come from the flavor profiles used. What did you use for cheese and oil?
Rita August 26, 2013 at 11:30 pm
My family had lunch at your Leesburg restaurant yesterday. My daughter-in-law and myself require a gluten free diet. The waiter brought us your gluten free bread whIch was the best I have ever eaten including what I bake. Can you give me any tips regarding the recipe or type flour you use. We live 100 miles from Leesburg but will definitely eat there again.
Joe August 27, 2013 at 8:56 am
Hi Rita,
We actually purchase our gluten free bread from Gillian's Foods. We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed it so much and we look forward to seeing you again! Please let us know if you have any additional questions.

Mike October 26, 2013 at 8:38 pm
Joe, we love your bread and olive oil! Tried it at home, but it didn't taste right, I believe it was the olive oil, we used regular EVOO. La Spagnolia seems to have several blends.. can you share which one you recommend? Thanks!
Joe October 28, 2013 at 5:24 pm
Hi Mike,
We used a 90/10 blend, so 90% vegetable oil, 10% extra virgin olive oil. Best of luck with the recipe, please let us know how your second attempt turns out!
Danny L. Hollis December 10, 2013 at 10:40 am
Just wanted to let you know that your dipping sauce is off the hook goodness !! I have made several times and it tastes the same…Will be back soon for dinner in Burlington Mass Location…
Joe December 10, 2013 at 10:53 am
Hi Danny,
Thanks for the dipping sauce love! We love when our guests get to try out our recipes for themselves and are happy this one has been a success for you. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
gina December 28, 2013 at 5:49 pm
Can you post the recipe to the focaccia bread you make in house!? =)
Joe December 30, 2013 at 9:35 am
Hi Gina,
Our batch is too large to modify for home cooking, so we are unable to provide a recipe. We sincerely apologize, but you can always order a loaf from your nearest NYAJoe's to bring home!
Rochelle April 3, 2014 at 8:22 pm
Hi there, I'm wondering if you could provide a list of the ingredients in the focaccia bread? Not the recipe, but just the ingredients. I'm wondering if the bread is vegan. Thanks.
Joe April 11, 2014 at 1:21 pm
Hi Rochelle,
Thanks for reaching out! Here are the ingredients in our bread:
Katharina April 14, 2014 at 9:07 am

Terri Sprinkle October 15, 2014 at 2:47 pm
Where locally in Northern Virginia can the La Spagnolia oil be purchased?
Joe October 16, 2014 at 5:04 pm
Hi Terri,
That specific product is shipped from our Boston warehouse to Virginia and may not be available for direct retail in your area. We have found the product online (and have included the link below) if you are interested in purchasing it that way.
michelle November 21, 2014 at 6:56 pm
OMG . . . this dipping sauce is AMAZING . . . I had some leftover and heated it up yesterday at work and two dudes came out of their office to find out what that glorious scent was . . . I will so be trying to make this at home. There oughta be a law against this being so daggone delicious!
Joe November 22, 2014 at 3:19 pm
We are so glad you love it! Come enjoy some with us soon!
Dot January 29, 2015 at 7:50 pm
Yesterday I tried a new restaurant with GrubHub — NYAJ's. The bleu cheese burger was awesome — creamy soft bleu cheese, bacon, caramelized onions, etc. The key lime pie was quite good and beautifully served, with very fresh mint leaves as a garnish. My salad, unfortunately, did not arrive (perhaps a GrubHub mixup). Instead, I got a bag of bread — the most delicious bread! I was not at all sorry that I didn't get my salad. I am sorry to read here that the recipe is top secret, but I don't blame you! Didn't know it was dipping bread, so I had it with lots of butter and was amazed. Next time I'll be ordering bread on purpose! Thank you for providing food with far-better-than-average flavor!
Best regards,
Joe January 29, 2015 at 7:54 pm
Thank you for your kind words. We are so glad that you enjoyed your meal, regardless of the salad mixup! We hope to see you in store soon and hope you will try our delicious dipping oil with our bread!
Cher January 30, 2015 at 3:04 pm
I recently had to go gluten free and took my family to your restaurant. I watched with envy my husband and boys eat your delicious break. So I decided to ask if there was gluten free bread. Yes, she replied and quickly returned with my very own basket. One bite and I was Sold, amazed and grateful for the deliciously wonderful gluten free bread. So, I ask kindly if you would be willing to share the recipe. I loved it so much, I plan to go back very soon for dinner and ask if I can buy a loaf for home.
Joe January 30, 2015 at 3:07 pm
Hi Cher,
We are so glad you loved it! Unfortunately, our bread recipe is the only recipe we can not give out. We are sorry about this but we do suggest that you call ahead and order a loaf from your fave NYAJ's location! We hope to see you soon!
Tara February 12, 2015 at 9:04 am
Cher – I think Joe misunderstood you. You were asking about the gluten free bread specifically. In other post, Joe said:
Hi Rita,
We actually purchase our gluten free bread from Gillian's Foods. We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed it so much and we look forward to seeing you again! Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
Hope that helps!

hi Joe! I was wondering if you ever thought about coming down to Palm Beach County Florida? You'd love the palm trees. And we love your restaurant. We went to the one in the Kentlands. And like everybody else we love the dipping sauce! Come south!
Joe May 18, 2015 at 8:01 am

Great suggestion! You never know where Joe will go next!

After a bad fall, Sullivan was paralyzed from the waist down. A patient at Sells Rest Home, the feisty Sullivan began therapy with the staff of Rehab America LLC. In the past few months, he has regained his ability to get around independently, primarily with a walker, gained weight and hopes to return home soon.
"It works - that is the best thing I can say. You may not like it, but if you do what they say, it works," said Sullivan about his therapy and therapists.
The comments brought a smile to the face of Amy Dunn, executive director of Rehab America LLC. "We are having so much success with what we are doing, it is really exciting," she said.
Now in its second year, Rehab America is beginning to expand its operations. Currently, the St. Louis-based company provides rehabilitation services to nursing homes in Kentucky, Tennessee and Missouri, including Sells Rest Home at Matthews where the staff has worked since September 2006.
Dunn proudly recounts the success of other patients after working with the rehab staff.
"The residents of Sells have seen major improvements in their quality of life and the amount of personal and patient-specific rehabilitation that they have received. There have been several residents who have been able to return to their homes and prior living arrangements, not to mention the dozens who have become completely independent in ambulation, ADLs and cognitive tasks as a result of the quality therapy they are receiving," she said.
The success, Dunn continued, is a cooperative effort of the staff of Rehab America working closely with the staff at Sells Nursing Home. Together they have establish specialized programs such as dealing with weight loss, cognitive issues and behavior modification.
"We are working as a team with the facility and we work well together because we both believe in putting patients first. When you put the patients first, everything else falls into place," she said.
The amount and type of therapy depends on the individual, explained Dunn. Some are able to return to their prior level of functioning in a few weeks while some require extended therapy.
With a current case load of 18, the staff typically works Monday through Friday, however weekend hours are arranged if needed. Most patients are seen five times a week.
According to Dunn, another plus provided by Rehab America is the company's on-site management which works with facilities to mesh billing.
Also the company works with the facility's staff to provide training which they can use with patients' restorative needs.
Everyone's goal with all the patients, she said, is to get them functioning to the same level they were before their injury or illness. The Rehab America staff also volunteers time for patients who otherwise would not be able to afford rehabilitation services, which Dunn said is also a part of the company's patient-first emphasis.
To accommodate the new rehabilitation service, Sells recently created a larger therapy room. While an open house is tentatively set for May 25 to officially open the facility, the staff and their rehab clients are already making good use of the room.
The room includes a variety of exercise equipment such as an incumbent bike, weight machine, parallel bars and an electric stimulator, which is used with pain management.
A kitchen area is used to work with patients who will soon be returning home. Here they practice their meal preparation and other skills needed to maintain their independence.
As part of the company's effort to meet local needs, Dunn said they plan to obtain an outpatient license so the therapists can work with individuals not in the nursing home but in need of therapy. Dunn said this could be adults with work-related injuries or children dealing with a sports-related injury.
"That way they could stay within their own community and receive the therapy they need," said Dunn.
Over the past several months a bond has developed between the rehab staff and the patients and staff at Sells, according to Dunn. The rehab staff sponsored an Easter Egg hunt for the staff and residents the week leading up to Easter both for fun and to raise awareness about occupational therapy.
More events, both fun and informational, are planned as well.
All, Dunn explained, are designed to meet the company's philosophy: "Therapy for living your life today and exceeding your goals for tomorrow."

Assessment Is The First Domino
May 1st, 2013 by Dan Meyer
Daniel Schneider, in a must-read piece:
I believe that standards-based grading, at its fundamental level, is only changing your gradebook so you grade individual standards. However, this change forces you to face realities about a traditional classroom that you can't ignore and that you are forced to react to.
If this piece were only about the implementation of standards-based grading, it'd be indispensable. If you're thinking about making a constructive change to how you grade and treat your students, you should read the Schneider's how-to guide.
But it's also about changes Schneider made from year one to year two in that implementation, which makes it rarer and more valuable among all the SBG literature you can find.
But he also diagnoses how this one change to assessment then rolls along and affects every other aspect of his classroom. Curriculum, homework, relationships, the definition of math itself — nothing is spared. Assessment is only the first domino.
It's the best examination of the classroom as a thriving, codependent ecosystem I've read in a long while.

Dallas County death penalty trial delayed by sick juror
There will be no testimony today in the death penalty trial of Charles Payne, who is accused of killing Dallas police Senior Cpl. Norm Smith.
One of the jurors is hospitalized. He could be released as early as Thursday.
State District Judge Rick Magnis sent the jury home. Magnis said he will decide in the morning whether to replace the juror with one of the two alternates or delay until the juror returns. Magnis said in court that he needed more information about the health of the juror, who wants to return.
Dallas County prosecutors asked for a continuance. Payne's defense attorney Ed "Bubba" King asked for the judge to replace the juror today and proceed with testimony.
The judge said he will meet with the attorneys in the morning to make a decision. Jurors are to report at 10 a.m. if they have not heard from the court.

To the Editor: Dr Osmond and colleagues1 noted the lack of consensus as to the route of
have suggested that KSHV, also known as human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), is primarily
transmitted among homosexual men through deep kissing or oral sex. While this
hypothesis is consistent with much of the data, it fails to explain why HHV-8
is much more prevalent in homosexual than in heterosexual men, since deep
kissing and oral sex are common in both groups. Nor can differences in HHV-8
prevalence be solely attributed to numbers of sex partners, because even commercial
sex workers have a lower prevalence of HHV-8 than do homosexual men.4 Thus, the higher prevalence of HHV-8 among homosexual
men may be related to sexual practices, such as anal sex, that are more prevalent
among this population. Several findings of Osmond et al are consistent with
this hypothesis.

Poloz Puts Stamp on BOC, Writes In New Guidance
By Nirmala Menon
Canada's central bank did what everyone expected it to do: It kept benchmark interest rates at 1%. But its new governor surprised markets, nonetheless, with more specific policy guidance about when rates may rise.
The language actually mirrors former Bank of Canada Gov. Mark Carney's public statements as he was preparing to leave Ottawa for London. But by ensconcing that guidance in the bank's formal policy statement, Stephen Poloz has made his own mark.
The guidance brings the Bank of Canada closer in line with the U.S. Fed, which provides specific economic metrics–like unemployment–that it says will guide future rate action. Mr. Poloz's guidance wasn't as specific, but it gives market watchers three areas to watch. Here's what the bank said:
"As long as there is significant slack in the Canadian economy, the inflation outlook remains muted, and imbalances in the household sector continue to evolve constructively, the considerable monetary policy stimulus currently in place will remain appropriate," the Bank said in its interest rate statement Wednesday.
Translation: market watchers need to keep their eye on the country's potential growth rate–a relatively obscure metric tracked by the bank (and published only once a year); inflation, and household debt levels.
Under Mr. Carney, rate statements only said that the 1% rate "will likely remain appropriate for a period of time," after which some modest withdrawal will likely be required.
Wednesday's statement doesn't say whether Mr. Poloz is weighing all three metrics equally. Mr. Poloz will have an opportunity to clear up this point at his 11.15 a.m. EDT press conference.
The underlying message of higher rates over time remains intact, again with different language.
"Over time, as the normalization of these conditions unfolds, a gradual normalization of policy interest rates can also be expected, consistent with achieving the 2% inflation target," the Bank said.

I am all for going green. I love our planet earth, and I like doing little things that make me feel a part of something bigger. But, if it was 104 degrees outside and I had to go to work for a full nine hour day, I don't think I would be all for the air conditioning being turned down.
Shanghai workers were told that on Fridays they could wear shorts and t-shirts calling it "cool dress day" to be a part of an energy saving campaign. Cool right? Yes, but the thing is they are also going to be turning down the air. Is that spin? Giving people something that is looked at as a benefit for press reasons, but taking something else away to negate that?
If I were a worker in
I guess I don't have to worry about that. We have causal Friday no matter what the thermostat reads. And frankly, I live in
Don't get me wrong, I am not bashing on this. I actually think the campaign as a whole is pretty cool. (Pun intended.) Check it out: http://firstname.lastname@example.com. – Molli Megasko

Jeff Trexler once again writes about the lawsuit at The Beat:
The Superman and Superboy lawsuits are officially over, pending appeal . . . The verdict in each is in DC's favor. As with the concluding opinion, the final judgments were issued on April 18, 2013, the seventh-fifth anniversary of Superman's first appearance in Action Comics #1.
Of course, the Siegel side could still appeal, but inasmuch as the court followed the appellate court's reasoning in reaching these judgments the likelihood of success would be small, to say the least. The case also doesn't raise the sort of issues likely to attract attention from the Supreme Court.
And just like that, there's the final line for at least this chapter: the final judgment is handed down on the 75th anniversary of the publication of Action Comics #1. You can't make this stuff up.
So last Thursday, the same day of this decision, I was at Cleveland City Hall (sorta skipping school) as Mayor Frank Jackson officially declared it Superman Day. Laura Siegel Larson, Jerry's daughter and the family's remaining claimant, spoke eloquently on a sunny, windy day about her father's legacy. The footage is shaky, windy, but colorful. Watch it here.
I haven't edited it. Afterwards, Laura met with anyone who wanted to talk to her, and spent a good amount of time with a young reporter from Scholastic. Laura told me later that she told this girl that she "could be anything she wants to be." I don't take sides in the book about the lawsuit, and try to present things as is. But I wanted to point out where Laura chose to be last Thursday, when things were being decided away in California. She was not checking her phone. She was not on edge. She was here, on her own dime, where it all began.

Force villain Vidyut Jamwal in love with Mona Singh?
"They met through common friends and hit it off well," a source said. The source adds, "The duo have also been seen together at a night spot in Versova. As Mona is a known face and Vidyut is relatively new, people may not instantly react seeing them together."
Over two years ago, Mona split from actor-singer Karan Oberoi with whom she had worked in her serial Jassi. The duo was serious about each other and there had even been talk of marriage.

|Cloud Service Feature Driven Security Policies for Virtualized Infrastructures
|July 19, 2011
|With the increasing maturity of various cloud service delivery models (Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)) and deployment models (Private, Community, Public, Hybrid), the security risk profile of each cloud service configuration is coming into focus. In this paper, we take up the example of a Public Infrastructure as a Service (Iaas) cloud provider who provides storage and computing services through a data center with a virtualized infrastructure. In order to provide the needed security assurance for its IaaS cloud offering, the cloud provider needs to implement various security measures as part of the infrastructure configuration. A precursor to developing security measures is a comprehensive security policy. Now these policies are directly related to the features and functions that the IaaS cloud provider provides as part of its offering. The focus of this paper is to illustrate an approach for derivation of security policies for the virtualized infrastructure used by an IaaS cloud provider based on its service feature set.

Read our Privacy Policy.
In our latest entry in our video series, I discuss a minor "mystery". It's not one that we dealt with in our post-A Dance with Dragons little mysteries video because, well, we didn't think it's a mystery. But we've had enough people ask about it on the A Song of Ice and Fire forum that Sean T. Collins' suggestion that we tackle it made sense. For those who already knew the answer, I do discuss some related topics that may be of interest.
It ought to go without saying, but this contains spoilers for A Dance with Dragons:
Now, a couple of notes. Firstly, Linda and I are on a long (working) vacation, and while we could in theory record more videos, our internet connection out here in the far reaches of Scandinavia is shaky enough that it would take issues to get them uploaded (and that's if it'd be stable enough to allow a long video upload). So, probably no new videos until August. Secondly, some sort of Youtube behind-the-scenes code adjustments have made it that I can't directly reply to any comments (and there's been many good ones in the last week), so I'm sorry to say that until that's resolved, I won't be able to answer any questions offered in comments. But keep them coming! Once it gets fixed, I'll try to catch up with everything.
The Westeros network consists of several different sites, including a forum and a wiki, for all your A Song of Ice and Fire needs.
