Voice: Lenore Weber, Au Gres
Space limits verbiage, so here are some reasons why Obama is bad for America. He has:
Spent trillions of dollars that we don't have on his stimulus program that is not working.
Appointed misfits and tax crooks to important positions. Appointed Whiteacre to run Government Motors. He has no car experience and did a bad job at AT&T.
Appointed 21 "czars" to run new departments (unconstitutional!) because they won't have to be approved by Congress of the Senate. And no appeals can be made regarding their decisions!
Apologizes to everyone for America and all of our stupid, selfish mistakes, which he's happy to enumerate. Why didn't he mention these when he was campaigning?
Planned "quiet" meetings to give immunity to illegal immigrants and perhaps give them welfare and other benefits that we can pay for.
Pushed the unfair "fairness" doctrine which will get rid of intelligent talk programs and allow people like the Rev. Wright free time to spew their hatred and anti-Americanism.
Discussed taxing farmers with gaseous cows who add to the non-existent global warming and taxing cell phones.
Blames others, mostly President Bush, for many problems he cannot handle or has caused himself. Why not be a man and admit he's not the messiah or God and is not omniscient?
Allowed ACORN to receive millions of dollars from the government to do their lying, cheating and voter intimidation in the name of reform. Much of this money has been stolen by a few of the most crooked members who are currently under investigation.
Promised to get rid of Gitmo and is paying millions of our dollars to send these terrorists to beautiful Bermuda and Palau, possibly Saudi Arabia (where some of them came from) and other Arab states. He made a campaign mistake in promising this but cannot back down now.

U.S. Army Pfc. Bradley Manning, a former Fort Drum soldier, has been acquitted of aiding the enemy for giving classified secrets to WikiLeaks.
The military judge hearing the case, Army Col. Denise Lind, announced the verdict Tuesday. The charge was the most serious of 21 counts. It carried a possible life sentence without parole.
Manning was convicted of five espionage counts, five theft charges, a computer fraud charge and other military infractions.
The 25-year-old Crescent, Okla., native acknowledged giving the anti-secrecy website more than 700,000 battlefield reports and diplomatic cables, and video of a 2007 U.S. helicopter attack that killed civilians in Iraq. He said during a pre-trial hearing that he leaked the material to expose what he said was the military's "bloodlust" and disregard for human life.Manning said he didn't believe the information would harm troops in Afghanistan and Iraq or threaten national security.
Manning's sentencing hearing is set to begin Wednesday. He faces up to 128 years in prison.
The judge at the court-martial in Maryland deliberated for about 16 hours over three days before deciding to convict Manning on espionage, theft and computer fraud charges, but not on the charge of aiding the enemy.
Manning stood and faced the judge as she read the decision. She didn't explain her verdict, but said she would release detailed written findings.
A defense lawyer said Manning could have sold the information or given it directly to the enemy, but chose instead to give the material to WikiLeaks to "spark reform" and provoke debate.
Prosecutors said Manning knew the material would be seen by al-Qaida, and that he broke signed agreements to protect the secrets.

No one would blame you for calling it the SpringBoard, but the SoulArc Board is a brand new skateboard with a rigid top and below-deck composite spring that provides the action and feel of surfing (and shredding). A result of a class project at Kendall College of Art and Design, the board is the brainchild of Mitch Mulder, who partnered with Salvaore Vilardi to bring the board to market. It'll be introduced in a couple weeks at the Action Sports Retail trade show in San Diego at the Surf Expo in Orlando. (The name comes from the surfing expression "soul arch"--being one with the wave.)
Comments Mulder, "I've been making boards for 8 years and got sick of riding planks. With this board, you can ride in places you typically can't ride." And what does it really feel like? "You've gotta ride it to really understand it," answers Vilardi. Well, that Core77 address is easy to ship to, guys.
Here's the official word: At the heart of this revolutionary design is the SoulArc performance spring. The performance spring absorbs and transfers energy in a manner similar to carving a wave. Extensive adjustments to size, shape and material selection have produced this latest generation of the SoulArc performance spring. The smoothness and feel of this ride is unmatched, as each directional movement interacts with the spring to provide a corresponding and complementary reaction. The end result is a board that provides a uniquely exceptional ride.
Then some of the rigor: Each performance related variable was considered. Extensive ergonomic testing was performed to determine the optimal board height. Quantifiable variables included ground distance, lateral flex and vertical flex. These quantifiable variables were then analyzed and compared to qualitative measures that included ride feel, torque response and general overall ride ability.
First samples of the device are going out right now. If you want to try to get your hands on one, hit the website.
Tons more pics and video of the board in use after the, uh, jump.

DETROIT (AP) — Brennan Boesch made solid contact — and hit the ball to the worst possible place.
Shortstop Brandon Crawford caught Boesch's soft line drive near second base and quickly stepped on the bag to double off Brandon Inge, letting the San Francisco Giants hold on for a 4-3 win over the Detroit Tigers on Friday night. Detroit scored twice in the ninth and had the bases loaded with one out when the Giants escaped on the unassisted double play.
"That's just one of those freaky ones," Tigers manager Jim Leyland said. "For us, it was hit in exactly the wrong spot. For them, it was exactly the right spot."
Pablo Sandoval hit a tiebreaking double as part of a three-run top of the ninth for the Giants. San Francisco was coming off back-to-back losses to the Cubs — both in Chicago's last at-bat. The Giants nearly fell again.
Brian Wilson (6-1) won, but only after blowing a save for the second straight day. Wilson allowed Magglio Ordonez's RBI single in the eighth that tied it at 1.
After the Giants took the lead, Wilson started the ninth but had to be pulled with one out, the bases loaded and a run already in. Wilson slugged a cooler in the dugout with a bat after leaving the game.
"Give yourself 30 seconds to completely lose it, then come back and be a part of the team," Wilson said.
Jeremy Affeldt came on, and Detroit pulled within one when second baseman Emmanuel Burriss muffed a slow grounder for an error. Boesch was up next, and his liner probably would have scored the tying and winning runs if it had been a few feet higher.
"Great effort on our guys' part," Leyland said. "We just came up a little short."
It was Affeldt's third save of the season.
The Tigers dropped a half-game behind first-place Cleveland in the AL Central.
Madison Bumgarner allowed a run and five hits over 7 1-3 outstanding innings for San Francisco. He struck out nine and walked one.
Bumgarner departed following a walk by Inge. Sergio Romo came on and got the second out of the inning, but Javier Lopez then took the mound and allowed a single to pinch-hitter Boesch.
Wilson was next out of the bullpen, and Ordonez greeted him with a single to right.
It didn't stay tied for long. Chris Stewart led off the ninth with a double, and Aaron Rowand followed with a single, reaching base as part of his broken bat went flying over the third-base dugout.
One out later, Sandoval hit a ground-rule double to left-center to make it 2-1. The Giants added two more runs when Jose Valverde (2-3) and Brayan Villarreal issued bases-loaded walks.
Rowand had three hits.
Detroit's Brad Penny allowed a run and seven hits in seven innings. He struck out two and walked two.
The Giants threatened early, putting runners at first and third with nobody out in the first. Penny got out of the jam thanks to a fantastic play by left fielder Casper Wells. Sandoval lifted a foul ball toward the seats, and Wells not only caught it amid reaching fans — but he also threw home to catch Rowand, who had tagged up at third.
"That was an extraordinary play," Leyland said.
Sandoval made the most of his next big opportunity. With Rowand on second and two outs in the fifth, he sliced an 0-2 pitch to the gap in left-center to put the Giants ahead.
Bumgarner has been excellent since being knocked out in the first inning of a June 21 start against Minnesota. In his two outings since then, he's allowed two runs in 14 1-3 innings, with 20 strikeouts and two walks.
Detroit's Lester Oliveros made his major league debut in the eighth, striking out two and allowing a hit and a walk in an inning. Oliveros was called up from the minors to replace Al Alburquerque, who went on the disabled list with inflammation in his right arm.
NOTES: Detroit 2B Carlos Guillen (left knee) is transferring from Class A Lakeland to Triple-A Toledo as part of his rehabilitation assignment. ... San Francisco plans to start LHP Barry Zito on three days' rest Saturday, with RHP Ryan Vogelsong taking the mound Sunday. Zito and Vogelsong both pitched in a doubleheader Tuesday. ... Victor Martinez has been with the Tigers barely a half-season, and he's already impressed Leyland. Martinez has made the transition to designated hitter look easy. He entered Friday's game hitting .329. "I can't say enough about him," Leyland said. "He's one of the best teammates I've ever managed or been around."

How Well Do We Communicate?A Comparison of Intraoperative Diagnoses Listed in Pathology Reports and Operative Notes
Objectives: To compare surgeons' interpretations of intraoperative diagnoses with those rendered by the pathologist.
Methods: Consecutive intraoperative diagnoses over a nine-month period were retrospectively reviewed. For each case, operative notes were obtained from the hospital information system. The intraoperative diagnoses listed in the final pathology reports were compared with those dictated by the surgeon. Discrepancies were stratified by potential clinical impact: category A, overall correct diagnosis with minor unimportant differences; category B, discrepant diagnosis with both either benign or malignant; and category C, intraoperative diagnoses differing between benign and malignant. The method of communication of each discrepant intraoperative diagnoses (in person vs telephone) was also examined.
Results: There was no record of the intraoperative diagnoses in 20% of operative notes. Comparison of intraoperative diagnoses was possible in 1,131 cases. Category A errors were noted in 94 (8.3%) cases, B in 11 (1%), and C in 4 (0.3%). The most frequent means of communication in A and B cases was the telephone, with more C cases being relayed in person.
Conclusions: A subset of verbally reported intraoperative diagnoses is misinterpreted by surgeons. While rare events, miscommunication can lead to inappropriate intraoperative management. Communicating diagnoses by phone may increase the risk of perception errors.
- Communication
- Quality management
- Frozen section
While precision and reproducibility in anatomic pathology are key, accurate communication is just as important. Indeed, a pathologist's most impressive feat of diagnostic legerdemain is for naught if the receiving individual misinterprets the information.
Prior work has highlighted that communication gaps exist between pathologists and their clinical colleagues, which sometimes may involve key diagnostic information.1 In most instances, the ultimate impact of a clinician's immediate misinterpretation of anatomic pathology data is minimal. There is opportunity (interdisciplinary conferences, personal or telephone conversations, or follow-up patient encounters) to resolve any unclear or ambiguous items encountered in a pathology report and to ensure accurate conveyance of data. Furthermore, an electronic or paper copy of the pathologist's diagnosis is available for a surgeon's repeated review.
Diagnoses made at the time of surgery, however, are acted on immediately and often highly dependent on verbal interactions. As such, there is no time when the fidelity of communication is more critical, and potentially problematic, than in the intraoperative setting.2–4
Many studies have concentrated on improving the quality of intraoperative diagnoses through minimizing preanalytic and analytic issues (such as processing artifacts and diagnostic accuracy/precision). Less attention has been paid to postanalytic factors—namely, clarity of pathologists' verbal communication with surgeons during procedures with comprehension by the surgeon and proper resulting management. One large retrospective study examining the accuracy of frozen section diagnoses found that 9.5% involved lack of communication between the pathologist and surgeon.5 However, this and other similar studies of accuracy are based on the correlation of the pathologists' frozen and permanent section diagnoses6 and did not concentrate specifically on the clinicians' understanding of the intraoperative diagnosis.
To this end, we examined the concordance of intraoperative diagnoses recorded in final pathology reports to what the surgeons dictated in operative notes. The goal was to ascertain the accuracy of clinicians' interpretation of the outcome of verbal exchanges with pathologists. Furthermore, we characterized discrepancies based on type of difference(s) and potential clinical impact.
Materials and Methods
The intraoperative diagnoses (gross evaluations and frozen sections) from all consecutive surgical pathology cases over a nine-month period (September 2010 through May 2011), recorded in the final pathology report, were obtained from the anatomic pathology database at a tertiary academic medical center that handles approximately 32,000 accessions per year. A review of quality assurance data for the timeframe was evaluated, with cases to be excluded when intraoperative diagnoses were found to be incorrect on review of permanent sections or random review by a second pathologist.
All intraoperative diagnoses were rendered by board-certified pathologists with the exception of after-hours evaluation of donor organs, which were evaluated by senior residents. All were conveyed to the attending surgeon through face-to-face interaction in the operating room or frozen section laboratory, via loudspeaker in the operating room, or over the telephone via a nurse with "readback." Per departmental policy, pathologists were to write the diagnostic information given to the surgeon on the specimen requisition. This diagnosis was later dictated by support staff for incorporation into the final report. Per hospital policy, operative notes were to have been dictated within 24 hours of the procedure, and when multiple frozen sections were performed, each was to be mentioned separately by site. Surgeons did not have access to the written pathologic diagnosis until final case sign-out.
The exact intraoperative diagnoses from the final pathology reports were electronically imported into an Excel (Microsoft, Redmond, WA) spreadsheet. For each case, a search of the hospital information system was performed for the corresponding surgeon's operative note, and his or her description of the result of the intraoperative consultation was also obtained. The diagnoses were compared for overall content and accuracy by a single reviewer (G.T.).
Discrepancies between the diagnosis recorded by the pathologist and that dictated by the surgeon were further classified. Cases were considered to have "no significant discrepancy" if the pathologist's written diagnosis and the surgeon's account in the operative note contained an equivalent amount of information and displayed essentially no difference in wording. Category A discrepancies were those in which the overall diagnosis was correct but with minor differences that could have at most minimal clinical impact. Examples include diagnoses deferred by the pathologist but discussed by the surgeon as definitive, discrepant anatomic site, incorrect numeric data (eg, lymph node count), report of a diagnosis that is more or less specific than recorded by the pathologist, and additional information listed in the operative note not recorded by the pathologist. Category B discrepancies included cases in which the overall diagnoses were discrepant with possible differences in intra- or postoperative management, but both were either benign or malignant. Diagnoses were classified as having a category C discrepancy if they differed on the basis of benign vs malignant. For procedures in which multiple intraoperative diagnoses were performed, a case was considered discrepant when a difference was found in any.
For any category of difference, an attempt was made to determine the means by which the diagnosis was conveyed to the surgeon (ie, in person or via the telephone). In instances of category B and C discrepancies, the pathologist's original handwritten diagnosis was reviewed to ensure the accuracy of dictation and transcription. In category C cases, the clinical notes following the procedure were then examined for evidence of incorrect intraoperative management based on the discrepancy.
Intraoperative consultations were performed on 1,558 of 18,959 cases during the designated timeframe. Quality assurance data revealed that the intraoperative diagnosis and final diagnoses were discrepant in three cases, and these were excluded.
The availability of clinical data is depicted in Figure 1. Operative notes were not available for 118 (7.6%), representing procedures performed at an outside institution or on donor organs that were not used. The results of the intraoperative diagnoses were not described by the surgeon in 306 (19.7%) cases. As such, comparison was possible in 1,131 (72.7%) cases.
No significant discrepancy was found between the written pathologists' diagnosis and the surgeons' recollection of it in 1,019 (90.1%) cases. Category A discrepancies were noted in 94 (8.3%) instances and category B dissimilarities in 11 (1.0%). Four cases (0.3%) demonstrated category C differences.
Examples of category A discrepancies, along with the diagnoses in all cases demonstrating all category B and C differences, are listed in Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3. Further stratifying the 94 category A cases Table 4, more than half reflected instances when the surgeons' descriptions of the intraoperative pathologic findings was either more or less definitive or specific than what was recorded by the pathologist. In 16%, there was additional information listed in the operative note, usually discussing specific microscopic features of a lesion or the status of margin(s). In 14 cases, the pathologist deferred the final diagnosis, and the surgeon's impression was that the intraoperative diagnosis was definitive. Further medical record review of the category B cases did not identify any negative clinical impact.
Figure 2 lists the method by which the intraoperative diagnosis was communicated to the surgeon in the cases with discrepancies. In at least one-third of cases, the means of relaying the diagnosis was not recorded in the pathology report. For categories A and B, the largest number of diagnoses was relayed by telephone, while two of the four category C cases were relayed via telephone.
Cases With Category C Discrepancies
Case 1
The patient was a 57-year-old woman who presented with several months of abdominal pain. She underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy with no significant relief of her abdominal pain. Computed tomography (CT) showed ascites as well as an omental mass that was consistent with neoplastic disease. She underwent an exploratory laparoscopy, and the surgeon described "multiple peritoneal nodules." A single frozen section was performed on one nodule with the recorded intraoperative diagnosis of "poorly differentiated malignancy," which was reported to the surgeon in person. No other specimens were submitted, and no simultaneous frozen sections on other cases were performed during the examination of the slides. The operative note listed the frozen section diagnosis as "completely benign." The surgeon aspirated peritoneal fluid, placed a central line, and aborted the procedure. The final diagnosis was malignant mesothelioma. The patient received palliative chemotherapy and died four months following the procedure.
Case 2
A 45-year-old man underwent neoadjuvant radiation with a wide excision of a high-grade pleomorphic sarcoma with negative margins. Eight months later, he presented with significant pain in the right buttock and posterior thigh and a rapidly enlarging mass in his gluteal region with radiologic findings concerning for recurrent sarcoma. He underwent an incisional biopsy, in which an intraoperative diagnosis obtained on the single submitted specimen was "benign fibroadipose tissue and skeletal muscle," reported in person. No other simultaneous frozen sections were performed or reported. The surgeon's operative note stated the following: "initial frozen section diagnosis consistent with high-grade sarcoma." The wound was then closed and the surgery concluded.
The frozen section diagnosis was confirmed on examination of the permanent sections. The patient later completed another course of radiotherapy with a subsequent hemipelvectomy and is currently free of disease.
Case 3
A 45-year-old woman underwent a total thyroidectomy for multinodular goiter three years prior to presentation. At that time, two foci of papillary microcarcinoma were identified, one measuring 0.3 cm and the other 0.4 cm in diameter. She had been followed with serial ultrasounds, which showed no significant change over the years. Three months before surgery, a nodule in the left thyroid bed was identified, and a fine-needle aspirate of the lesion was read as recurrent papillary thyroid carcinoma.
A neck exploration was performed. Multiple specimens were submitted for intraoperative diagnosis, all of which were negative for malignancy and reported separately. Near the end of the procedure, the surgeon noted a 0.5-cm nodule that was removed and separately submitted for frozen section analysis without other concurrent specimens. The initial intraoperative diagnosis was listed by the surgeon as "small follicles of thyroid tissue in an inflammatory background with question of lymphocytic thyroiditis." Since the diagnosis was discordant with the results from the prior specimen, the surgeon requested a second diagnostic opinion, during which time he proceeded to close. Although the surgeon stated that "the consulting pathologist felt there was nothing to be there to label it papillary carcinoma of the thyroid," the pathologist's handwritten diagnosis was "papillary carcinoma," which was reportedly relayed by telephone.
The final surgical pathology report, following immunoperoxidase studies and additional intradepartmental consultation, was "lymphoid and follicular tissue with some nuclear atypia, probably representing lymphocytic thyroiditis. No tumor identified." The preceding cytology specimen was also reviewed and amended to read "atypical cells present." The patient was discharged following the surgery without additional therapy and has had no recorded recurrence of her tumor.
Case 4
The patient was a 61-year-old woman with a history of recurrent endometrial carcinoma, originally diagnosed 16 years prior to surgery when she underwent a total abdominal hysterectomy–bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for menorrhagia. Radiographic studies performed for new-onset lower extremity swelling showed a pelvic mass causing severe hydronephrosis. A ureteral stent was placed, and a CT-guided biopsy revealed metastatic adenocarcinoma.
She was taken to surgery for a planned exploratory laparotomy, nephroureterectomy with removal of the ureter, possible bladder resection, and removal of the right pelvic mass. During surgery, a 2-cm area of puckering with apparent necrosis was identified. A frozen section from this area was performed with no other specimens submitted for intraoperative diagnosis or other cases evaluated simultaneously. The pathologist's handwritten diagnosis was "adenocarcinoma." A hospital-conducted internal review later revealed that this was communicated to the surgeon by telephone via a nurse who relayed the diagnosis as "no carcinoma," and the surgeon's operative note stated that the frozen section "revealed no malignancy." The area was extensively dissected, and no gross tumor was remaining in the pelvis, although the mass was adherent to the iliac vessels. Additional margin tissue was submitted for permanent sections only.
The intraoperative diagnosis was confirmed in the final report with crushed tumor cells present in the marginal tissue as well. The patient was informed that she likely had residual disease not identified at the time of surgery and has resumed chemotherapy.
Intraoperative diagnoses are one of the few times when an anatomic pathology diagnosis can have an impact on the immediate medical management of a patient. It is, therefore, important to ensure accurate and precise communication between the surgeon and the pathologist since there is less room for errors caused by misinterpretations. In addition, the operating room is a complex and distracting environment, with a recent study finding that an average of one distracting event occurs nearly every two minutes during a procedure.7
While there have been numerous studies looking at preanalytic or analytic sources of error in intraoperative diagnoses, few authors have examined the sources and effects of postanalytic error.3,4,5,8 One source of these mistakes is the inaccurate communication of a pathologist's correctly rendered diagnosis to a clinical colleague, and to our knowledge, this phenomenon has not been examined extensively. In an effort to indirectly assess the fidelity of pathologist-surgeon communication, we evaluated the rate of concordance between the pathologist's written frozen section diagnosis and the diagnosis recorded by the surgeon in his or her operative note.
We identified four category C errors (discrepancy between a benign and a malignant diagnosis), which composed 0.3% of the evaluated cases. Of the four category C errors, only one ultimately resulted in improper patient management at the time of surgery (case 4). In that case, a diagnosis of "adenocarcinoma" was relayed to the surgeon via phone by a nurse as "no carcinoma," and clean margins were not confirmed at the time of the procedure. This illustrates the importance of never using the word no in a diagnostic statement (on both sides of the microscope). If "no" is lost in translation, the remaining sentence is still sensical ("no carcinoma" becomes "carcinoma").8 It is recommended to use a positive or negative qualifier (eg, "POSITIVE for carcinoma" or "NEGATIVE for carcinoma"), which, if lost, would prompt the clinician to investigate for a possible error. While this is a small number, any discrepancy of this magnitude should be a "never-event."
The other three category C errors arguably did not result in improper intraoperative management and otherwise would not have come to attention. The exact cause of these errors is uncertain. It is unlikely that the fault was in the hand-off of the diagnosis because in two instances (cases 1 and 2) it was reported to the surgeon in person. It is possible that the surgeon made a mistake while dictating the operative note (possibly dictating from a personal "mental template" many hours after the conclusion of the procedure). The third case was relayed via telephone. Consultation from another pathologist was sought at the time of frozen section after the initial diagnosis was reported to the surgeon (lymphocytic thyroiditis vs papillary carcinoma), which may explain the incongruity. In any case, it is important to seek some sort of confirmation that the information was correctly understood by the clinician (such as a "read back," ideally from the surgeon himself or herself).
There were minor discrepancies (category A and category B) in 9.6% of the cases. Most (47%) were due to the surgeon being more specific or providing additional information in his or her note that was not present in the pathologist's written diagnosis. An additional 15% were due to a deferred diagnosis being listed by the surgeon as definitive. It is not uncommon for the surgeon to visit the frozen section suite as pathologists verbalize their thoughts while examining a specimen or ask for more information in difficult/equivocal cases (such as when a frozen section was performed to confirm the presence of diagnostic tissue and the surgeon asks, "What do you think it is?"). The results illustrate that what is said conversationally or "off the record" may be regarded by the clinician as more definite than the pathologist intended. They also highlight the importance of not providing more information than can be definitively determined by the tissue available for examination at the time of frozen section. Pathologists should thoroughly document their intraoperative conversations9 with clinicians or specifically state before the end of the encounter that "my intraoperative diagnosis is X."
In 22% of the cases, the surgeon's operative note contained less information than what was given in the pathologist's written diagnosis. This may be due to the pathologist providing more data than clinically needed at that time. Good communication between the pathologists and surgeons, both at the time of frozen section and during interdisciplinary conferences, can help clarify the intraoperative needs of the surgeon, reduce unnecessary effort on the part of the pathologist, and minimize the likelihood of interpretive errors.
The most common method of communication for cases with category A and B errors was the telephone. Most category C diagnoses were relayed in person (further supporting the "mental template" theory); however, the telephone was the medium used in communication in the one case with inappropriate intraoperative management (case 4). There are multiple points for errors to occur when communicating via the telephone, including (but not limited to) technical issues, such as a poor connection and difficulty with intercom/speakerphone systems. These issues are amplified when information is passed through multiple individuals since the diagnosis may be first taken by a nurse who answers the phone and is then verbally relayed to the surgeon. Even with "read-back" procedures, there is the possibility of misinterpretation because of pronunciation or other complications resulting from an increased number of communication steps. However, errors occurred both over the phone and in person, which likely reflects communication issues between two (or more) groups of people and cannot be attributed to the method of communication alone.
There was no mention of a frozen section diagnosis in the operative note in 20% of the cases. This may again be due to a surgeon dictating from a mental template and forgetting to include the results of frozen sections. It also raises the question of the clinical necessity of some frozen sections. With increasing administrative scrutiny of practice patterns and budgetary constraints looming, it may become necessary to fully document the medical need for a frozen section.
Cases in which a discrepancy existed between the intraoperative diagnosis and the final diagnosis were excluded. The goal of this study was an evaluation of postanalytic communication, and it would have been inappropriate to include cases with errors at the analytic stage.
While the ultimate indicator of effective communication is the correct patient management that would result from an intraoperative diagnosis, these data are much more difficult to gather since each patient's situation is unique and not clear-cut. We acknowledge that our method of review is an indirect assessment of the surgeon's comprehension of intraoperative diagnoses, and using operative notes as a barometer of communication quality does have limitations. For example, it is dependent on the accuracy of the surgeon's memory when dictating at a time distant from the procedure. Uncorrected typographical errors in either operative notes or final pathologic diagnoses may also have been a confounding factor in some instances. In addition, the operative notes may have been dictated after the release of the final surgical pathology report; however, hospital policy requires operative notes to be dictated within 24 hours prior to final case sign-out in most instances at our institution.
It is also clear that the presence of a discrepancy did not result in clinical misadventure in most cases. Indeed, with the exception of the category C error described in case 4, none would have come to the attention of the treating clinician(s), pathologist, or patient. However, the presence of these discrepancies, irrespective of their severity or clinical importance, suggests that postanalytic errors in anatomic pathology may go unrecognized in standard departmental or institutional quality control review. In addition, in the current litigious environment, it is important to accurately document what exactly was stated. Data from surgeons' operative notes and regular examination of the management resulting from an intraoperative diagnosis (the most important indicator of accuracy of communication) may be important to consider as additional quality assurance monitors, especially as new-in-practice pathologists become accustomed to the needs of their clinical colleagues or new surgeons establish their thresholds for ordering and acting on intraoperative consultations. Such reviews may also present an opportunity for resident instruction and as an evaluation of pathologists' intraoperative diagnosis reporting practices to prevent more significant events and improve patient safety.

I have a thing for snowflakes. I do. And winter solstice seems the perfect occasion to share this snowflake T-shirt with you (maybe it will encourage actual snowflakes to fall!). A little sparkle glams up a plain T-shirt, and you can dress it up with a skirt or down with jeans to suit the mood or the occasion.
-plain T-shirt
–Fashion Glitter Iron on Shimmer Sheets
-iron and press cloth
Make it:
1. Fold one corner of the shimmer sheet down on the diagonal.
2. Trim the excess to square it off.
3. Fold the folded triangle in half again.
4. And in half again.
5. And in half one more time.
6. Pinch the layers together and cut out shapes from the two folded edges, doing your best to go through ALL layers.
7. Unfold the snowflake, and tidy up any mismatched cutouts.
8. Place the snowflake on the T-shirt, plastic side down, and iron it on using a press cloth.
9. Peel back the press cloth to make sure all edges are stuck. Try it on!

Very clean and comfortable and Denise is very friendly and helpful. The location very good for local shops and easy to get into town. The only problem for us were the stairs that are a bit steep but we managed alright and we're an elderly couple. The washing machine and dryer were a godsend after several days traveling . Thank you for everything.
Spare but very comfortable. Four narrow flights of stairs, as is typical of Amsterdam. Just a few blocks from the tram. Owners notes that are provided when you arrive are very helpful. Highly endorse their recommendation of Restaurante Toscannini!
This property has a great location, close to public transportation and lots of nice restaurants. The bed is comfortable, however in my opinion that's where the comfort ends. There seems to be some things missing from the apartment. It felt barebones to us, not cozy at all. No pillows on the couch. There were extra pillows for the bed, but no pillowcases for them. In the kitchen, There was a coffee pot, but only Whole coffee beans, with no way to grind them. Salt but no sugar for coffee. In order to eat or drink anything, EVERYTHING must be purchased by the renter. Which is fine. That's what we did. It just feels like the price charged for the apartment didn't match the amenities that were available, or rather unavailable. When we noticed that there was not even matches to light the stove, the owner replied "yes, we ran out of matches. You'll have to buy some." All in all, if you just need a bed and to be close to town, this is the place. But if you're looking for a comfortable, cozy, homey spot, this isn't for you.
We had a great stay in this apartment! We were there for 6 nights and it served our purposes perfectly, and is so much better than staying in a hotel. Pictures and listing are as advertised, and it was clean upon arrival.
The neighborhood itself is [mostly] quiet (Fri and Sat night there were some gatherings we could hear in the courtyard, but we sleep with ear plugs when we travel, so it wasn't a problem for us - they also seemed to wind down at a reasonable hour). It's very close to Leidseplein, and several tram stops to take you where ever else you want to go. There are also plenty of restaurants and cafe's just around the corner with good food and drinks that aren't touristy. We also used some of Denise's restaurant recommendations as well, which were great.
Denise was a wonderful host, and very accommodating about our arrival time, and I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone looking for something outside City Centre, but still within the thick of the city!
As a side note: like most Amsterdam apartments, this is on the third level of a building with very narrow and very steep stairs, so if you are not able bodied, I wouldn't recommend it, but for anyone that's navigated Amsterdam stairwells successfully before, you'll be fine!
The apartment is very clean and comfortable. the owner, Pieter, was very nice.
the location is great, so we definitely would stay there again.
many thanks !!
Alex and Alla.
Nice and quick communication befor we rented the flat. The flat is well and safe located, very clean and modern furnished (looks like the photos). The owners are very friendly, answered all the questions about the flat, parking, etc and was accessible by phone the whole stay. They prepared a nice book with tips for visiting the city like good restaurants and bars, nice places to see, where to book boats and other stuff. We already recommanded the flat to our friends :)
Thank you for the nice stay! Anna P.
Beautifully decorated apartment for two in one of the nicest areas of the city. Within a 10 minute walk from all the famous sights; Anne Frank, Leidseplein, Vondelpark, Van Gogh, Rijksmuseum, etc. Many nice bars and restaurants right around the corner!

The Washington Redskins have made their moves in free agency, and have made their selections in the draft. So, with the majority of the pieces now in place, how does the puzzle now fit together?
The only thing for certain is that the Washington Redskins of 2010 will look vastly different then the Redskins of 2009.
With an entirely new coaching staff, a new Pro Bowl quarterback, a lot of new players, and a new-and-improved attitude all around, the Redskins of 2010 should be a much better team.
Will the new changes be enough to propel these new Redskins into the playoffs? That depends a lot on the following five players. The performances of these men will determine the success or failure of Washington in 2010.

When do you think I should make the transition to a big girl bed? We are going to use her crib for the new baby and I am worried about her feeling that we are giving her things to the new baby. I'm trying to avoid jealousy issues. So I have heard to make DD transition before the new LO arrives. but I am very hesitant, I don't want to lose any sleep right now, chasing her around the house, trying to keep her in a big girl bed.
Thanks for your thoughts.

Secret Chiefs 3View in iTunes
To preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
Since Mr. Bungle is notorious for taking substantial amounts of time between albums (it took them four years to follow up their 1991 debut), its bandmembers are left with a lot of time on their hands. Hence the members of Mr. Bungle use their off time wisely, by writing, recording, and touring with other bands or, often, side projects. The best side project of the bunch, Secret Chiefs 3, features Mr. Bungle comrades Trey Spruance (guitar/vocals), Trevor Dunn (bass/vocals), and Danny Heifetz (drums). If there are any remaining who think that the musicians in Mr. Bungle are just a vehicle for vocalist Mike Patton's singing talents, Secret Chiefs 3 is the ultimate proof that this is not the case. Trey Spruance gets a chance to be the leader, as he wrote every track on their 1996 debut First Grand Constitution and Bylaws, and was the record's producer as well. Before the full-length debut appeared, the group whet their fans' appetites by including a Secret Chiefs 3 single with vinyl copies of Mr. Bungle's 1995 magnum opus, Disco Volante, as well as recording a warped version of "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" for a Japanese Christmas compilation. They were also signed on to contribute a Beach Boys track to a Japanese Beach Boys tribute album, showing that they can tackle just about any musical form put in front of them. ~ Greg Prato

Exploit code out for Internet Explorer security flaw
Round up of security news including Websense warns of Explorer exploit code targeting MDAC flaw
This Article Covers

IT administrators who have yet to install an Internet Explorer (IE) patch released in February may want to move it up the priority list. Attackers have access to exploit code for one of the flaws the patch addressed.

Websense Security Labs has reported on its Web site Monday that "full exploit code" has been published for the flawed ADODB.Connection ActiveX control in Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC). Attackers could exploit the flaw, which Microsoft patched in its Feb. 13 MS07-009 bulletin, to hijack targeted machines.
"Our scanners are now actively searching for any live sites that are attempting to exploit this vulnerability," Websense said in its advisory. "This type of vulnerability has been very popular with malicious attacks in the past and we expect to see its usage increase substantially now that exploit code is publicly available."
The flaw was originally brought to light by Metasploit Framework creator HD Moore during his Month of Browser Bugs project last July.
"The original demonstration of this vulnerability occurred on July 29, 2006 in HD Moore's Month of Browser Bugs #29," Websense Security Labs said. "At the time, only a denial-of-service demonstration was published."
The faulty ActiveX control at the heart of the flaw is used in Windows 2000 Service Pack 4, Windows XP Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2003 for Itanium-based Systems.
The patch can be downloaded from the Microsoft Web site.

See Figures 1 and 2
- Disconnect the negative battery cable, then discharge the A/C system properly.
- Fit a 3 / 8 in., 1 / 2 in., 5 / 8 in., or 3 / 4 in. Spring Lock Coupling Tool to the coupling.
The garter spring may not release if the tool is cocked while pushing it into the cage opening.
- Close the tool and push into the open side of the cage to expand the garter spring and release the female fitting.
- After the garter spring is expanded, pull the fitting apart, then remove the tool from the disconnected coupling.
- Check to make sure the garter spring is in the cage of the male fitting. If the garter spring is missing, install a new spring by pushing it into the cage opening. If the garter spring is damaged, remove it from the cage with a small wire hook (do not use a screwdriver), then install a new spring.
- Clean all dirt or foreign material from both pieces of the coupling.
On the female spring lock design, check the inside of each fitting for scratches, corrosion, or debris from deteriorated O-rings. If any is found, the fitting should be cleaned as follow:
- Remove any surface residue from the inside of the female spring lock coupling by polishing with 400-grit emery cloth (or equivalent). Polish the female surface using a twisting motion so that any scratches make will not cross the O-ring sealing surface.
- Perform additional polishing of the surface using 600-grit emery cloth or equivalent.
- All residue from the polishing operations should be removed from the fitting by wiping with a line-free cloth.
- Lubricate and install new green O-ring seals on the male fitting.
Only use the specified green O-ring seals because they are made of a special material. The use of any O-ring seal other than the specified type, may allow the connection to leak intermittently during operation.
- Lubricate the male fitting, green O-ring seals and the inside of the female fitting with clean refrigerant oil.
- Install a plastic indicator ring into the cage opening if the indicator ring is to be used.
- Fit the female fitting to the male fitting, then push into the garter spring snaps over the flared end of the female fitting. If the plastic indicator ring is used, it will snap out of the cage opening when the coupling is connected to indicate engagement. If the ring is not used, check the coupling engage by making sure the garter spring is over the flared end of the female fitting.
- Connect the negative battery cable, then properly leak test, evacuate and charge the system using the correct equipment. Check the system for proper operation.

Game one featured a walk-off homer.
Game two was a close affair that had the tying run stranded on base in the ninth.
And game three went into extras after high-octane theatrics in the late innings.
Any series that plays out like that would be a memorable one and everyone involved would be happy with what they witness.
Except for the losing team, which was the No. 8 Sooners after falling to the No. 18 Oklahoma State Cowboys 11-10 in 10 innings Sunday night at RedHawks Field in Bricktown.
The Cowboys (27-9, 10-5 Big 12) got a walk-off single to center from senior second baseman Davis Duren to bring across the winning run after he and his teammates fought back from a four-run deficit to take the lead into the ninth that they would eventually give up.
The Sooners (26-10, 7-7 Big 12) turned the ball over to senior closer Ryan Duke with one out in the eighth inning of a 7-3 game after senior pitcher Bobby Shore threw 3 1/3 solid innings of relief work.
Then all hell broke loose.
After allowing a single and getting a pop out, Duke gave up another single to load the bases, walked two batters to dwindle OU's lead to one and then allowed a two-run single to give the Cowboys the 8-7 lead.
Duke was pulled after that, but the toughest thing for the reliever in that inning was that he entered the inning without having allowed a run all season.
"Ryan Duke has been outstanding finishing games," head coach Golloway said. "Even those things are going to happen. So you just pat your guy on the back and say 'Hey, the numbers were against you. The odds were against you. It's going to happen.'
"It happened at a bad time. It was Bedlam."
Redshirt junior Jordan John was called upon to stop the bleeding, but an error that would have ended the inning and a single put the Cowboys up 10-7 going into the ninth where they went to their closer, junior Chris Marlowe, to close out the game.
But like Duke, Marlowe just couldn't find the strike zone despite pumping in fastballs in the mid-90s and sliders in the mid-80s.
He walked four batters and allowed a bases-loaded, two-out single to junior catcher Tyler Ogle, who went 4-for-4 and drove in three runs, to give the Sooners life and a one-run deficit before reloading the bases for junior first baseman Cameron Seitzer.
The lanky lefty from Overland Park, Kan., didn't have to move, let alone take the bat off his shoulder, to be productive. Marlowe hit Seitzer on the right leg with a slider on the first pitch of the at-bat to tie the game.
The RBI was Seitzer's second of the game. He had three hits in five at-bats.
John and senior pitcher Tyson Seng combined to throw a scoreless bottom of the ninth despite allowing a leadoff double, but the offense couldn't produce in the top half of the 10th.
OU did come close to taking the lead in extras on a ball off senior right fielder Ricky Eisenberg's bat, but the ball hooked foul by about five feet and turned a could-be homer into a long strike.
"There was definitely an emotional swing back and forth," Golloway said. "But that's just because both teams are fighting. Nobody wants to make the last out."
But, as both coaches put it after the drama-filled game, that's baseball.
Both teams had their chances to win the game in extra innings, but poor work by their closers and leaving a combined 29 runners on base. The Cowboys stranded 12 runners and the Sooners left on 17.
"We left too many on to really pull away – I think – and make it comfortable," Golloway said. "But that's baseball. You're just one hit, one catch away from going away."
Not only did the loss mark another lost Big 12 series for OU – it has a 1-3-1 series record in conference play – it may have killed its chances of hosting a regional round and a shot at a Big 12 regular-season title.
The Sooners are 10-10 since starting the season 16-0, and many of their losses have been against teams that they were predicted to beat.
Although there's a lot of ball left to play, earning a regional host is something that might just be out of reach for the team that was predicted to be in Omaha this summer.
"We've got a lot of fight in us," Golloway said. "I know the character of this club, and it's a long way from being over for us."
One way the Sooners will try to get over this tough loss will be through prayer to play the Cowboys again in the conference tournament, Golloway said.
"We'll say a prayer, and hopefully God's going to let us play them in the Big 12 tournament," he said. "We're 2-2 this year, and that would be great for Bedlam baseball."
Another way OU will try to recover from this loss will be with two midweek games at L. Dale Mitchell Park.
The Sooners will play Dallas Baptist at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday and Bacone College at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday.
They're playing Bacone College as a make-up game because the Arkansas game was rained out March 29.
"We won't look to our Big 12 weekend until we get through our midweek games," Golloway said. "Then we'll go fight hard in the Big 12 play on the weekend."
No starters have been announced for those midweek games yet.

2000 Chevrolet Cavalier Z24 2dr Convertible
I purchased this cavalier convertible 6 months ago They rod bearing went out 2 months ago every body told me to replace them engine 2.4 oh dual cam But being a stubborn old man (80 years )old can do that myself it is then most complicated car I have ever worked on
2000 Chevrolet Cavalier 2dr Coupe
8/15/2016 update - STILL GOING STRONG W/173,489 miles.I bought mine brand new in 2000. It is bright red with tan cloth interior. It is the base car with no power anything except brakes & steering. Exactly what I wanted! 3 speed automatic transmission and a 2.2L 4 cyl engine. Plenty of pep when it was new, a cold a/c, a hot heater, and no blind spots to speak of. I was in love with my car. For the first 10 years the only thing I did to it besides oil changes was a few recalls under warranty, and new brake pads/shoes. At 11 years I bought new tires, a battery, and had a tune up done. At 12 years the a/c compressor had to be replaced and it cost $600 at a mechanics shop, then little things here and there. The rear defrost went out at 127,000 miles - but I live in Alabama, so I never replaced it. At 140,000 miles I had my original serpentine belt and hoses replaced and an inline fuel filter put on. It has never run hot, and I have never let it get below 1/4 of a tank. It doesn't use or leak oil, it shifts like it has a shift kit in it and has since brand new. 16 years later it still runs good. At 167,840 miles It received its 3rd battery.
2000 Chevrolet Cavalier LS 4dr Sedan
I bought this car in April 2009 and it had 118k, four door and three speed automatic. I paid $1100 for it. It had a new set of Michelins too! The dash near the windshield cracked and now has chunks missing. The original stereo/CD died. It uses no oil between changes. I replaced the radiator, the alternator, and changed the oil every 3000 miles. As of June 2014 it has 186k. I usually get 28 mpg in mixed driving, but sometimes get 30. I figured for $1100 if it lasted a year I could give it away and not be out anything. Five plus years later it is still going strong. Mine has the old OHV 2.2...never had an engine or transmission issue, nor check engine light. I may never get this lucky again.
Size, four door convenience, large trunk opening, large trunk and the fold down rear seat folds flat...rare. The storage between the seats in the console as well as the glove box is great. It is fun to drive and easy to see out of....no blind spots.
The interior plastics discolored and cracked with age. and the HVAC controls are blocked when you have drinks in cup holders. Pretty short gripe list.

I drive a 2000 cavalier which has taken my sister through High school, and is now taking me through college. It is a great little car! It has only given minor problems which u can expect from any car. When we got the car, it was abandoned by its current owner. It did not run and it needed a new transmission, but my uncle who is a mechanic saved its life. :) I don't like to see people bash this car-or American makes period. No, its not the most comfortable car. But if thats what your wanting, then your going to pay more. This is a simple car-to get you from point A to B. If your looking for something more luxurious, GM does make the Cadillac. Now there's 116,000 miles and still running strong!
