PeopleStreme's Employee Exit Survey is the worlds most advanced Employee Exit Survey software that enables an organization to assess why individuals are leaving the organization, by Exit Factor. You can then create instant reports by any demographic you choose, for example by age group, location, division, department or other demographics. You can then compare your organizations Exit Factors with the Global Employee Exit Benchmark to assess how your organization is performing relative to the Global Employee Exit Benchmark.
Once you know how your organization is performing, you can then create retention strategies by addressing the Exit Factors. Included in the software is a Knowledge Base of potential Emloyee Exit remedies to help plan how to reduce Employee Exit Factors.
Major Functional Points
- Supports on line and off line survey completion.
- Automatically compiles reports by Exit Question and Exit Factor.
- Full Benchmark for instant comparisons.
- Data can be exported to other reporting tools such as Microsoft Excel for custom analysis.
- Multi Language support.
- Custom Employee Exit Questions can be added to the base Employee Exit Questions.
- Delivered via PeopleStreme HCM Cloud - no software to install, just use your browser from any location around the world. Multi National - conduct global Exit Surveys from one or many locations.
- Create Retention plans by Division or Department.
- Employee Exit Knowledge Base contains potential remedies to reduce employee turnover.
Advantages over existing Methods of Employee Turnover Collation
There are several advantages, as follows:
- Benchmark your organisation against Employee Exit benchmarks
- Far more time efficient for HR. No manual exit interviews, no data collation, no formatting data for reports.
- Reporting data is instantly available, no delays for data collation and reporting.
- HR can apply effort to strategies to fix hot spots as opposed to spending time on data collation and reporting.
- Remedy action planning provided via integrated Employee Exit KnowledgeBase
Flexible Questionaire
The Exit Survey has a comprehensive pre-built questionnaire into which users key their data. Custom questions can be added to the base Employee Exit Questionnaire to address specific issue that are unique to your organization.
Track Exit Survey Completion
The questionnaire is delivered to the employee via email once HR has been advised that the employee is leaving the organisation. HR generate the questionnaire and emails it to the employee via the Employee Exit Control Panel. If the Employee has no access to a computer, HR can complete the Exit Questions on the behalf of the employee.
Employee Lifecycle
PeopleStreme Exit Survey forms part of the PeopleStreme Employee Lifecycle product suite. The suite includes an Attachment Survey (90 days after employment), Employee Engagement Survey and Employee Exit Survey.
Full Reporting

Replacing shower drain all connectors, no pipe
Redoing a shower in a weekend home that was leaking. Drain pipe was cracked (??how'd that happen??). Tore into the floor and found the drain pipe to be one connector after another for several feet. Even past the vent. Any slick tricks to fix such? Want to cut in to system and replace the trap and leaking connection. But to get to enough pipe to cut and have room to glue a connector, have to rip up more floor to get to the area with enough pipe. Hoping to avoid. Any suggestions?
Thanks so much in advance for any hints or suggestions.

looking for pipe TAP to chase the threads
I wanted to clean out the threads on this tee, there is some slight corrosion and crud.
it's a 1/2" fitting, Is it a 1/2" NPT thread?
On the other hand seems like a $20 tap may be over kill, is there a way to clean up the threads well, e.g. using another male fitting with slots cut into it. A PVC fitting is going to the bottom and currently from the plug I installed I know it is not leaking, maybe cutting the threads will make it worse?
A pipe thread will fix it but why fix it.
Those old steel fitting will always leak and start to close up on the insides.
Should have been replaced with new lines.
199 Attachment(s)
Taps are kind of spendy for one job. Try a brass nipple or steel nipple- run it in then remove it and check the threads. Also, a small copper fitting bush chucked into a drill works.
Thats a $2.00 part, why in the world would you waste that much time and risk a leak for $2.00 ?

text: Keep your pets inside when it's cold outside. Animal welfare experts say snow and ice can cover scents, so your pets might not be able to find their way home. They also say, just like in the summer, don't leave your pets in your car. " In the cold weather it becomes a refrigerator, all that cold air stays in that car and it's not healthy for that pet," said Stacey Coventry, public relations manager with the Bangor Humane Society. It's suggested to wipe down your pets when they come inside, because they could have sand or salt on them, and pets that start to shiver should be brought inside.

Domain Name Redirection Service
May 28th, 2017
Internet Domain Name Registration
I know that some of you are familiar with certain domain name services that most companies that are concerned about the domain name offered. There are the domain name registration services, domain name transfer, domain name renewal, and many others that function to help the domain name consumers, particularly the domain name holders.
Given such fact, it is interesting to know that the domain name industry is still not satisfied with a certain bang that they brought to the lives of many people. Today, they have come to consider their domain name redirection services to further aid the domain name holders in their domain name transactions. As such, it is no doubt that the domain name industry continue to grow and in the near future will still introduce much services for the people.
In terms of the domain name redirection service, since it is the main concern of this article, it is very nice to know that a domain name redirection service primarily functions to maintain and redirect the original email and/or web site address. As such, in the domain name redirection, when a web user enters in www.mydomainname.com, for example, the domain name redirection service will then redirects the location from www.mydomainname.com to where the web is physically viewed, let's say, www.geocities.com/0000 or even the UMUS web site.
It is also interesting to know that most of the web users today, since the domain name redirection service is introduced, prefer the domain name redirection service for the main reason that it is much easier to take into account a certain address rather than a long string of free web hosting address.
For further information, the domain name redirection service grants the internet users to be automatically redirected to another site on the internet. And it is noted that in some instances, the domain name redirection service can be applied to aid the internet users with short web addresses for some existing sites with a more complicated one.
One of the best examples to show how the domain name redirection service contributes for an easy operation is that when you have an existing site, http://www.geocites.com/siliconvalley/city92132/mysite.html, for example, you can easily access the site through the domain name redirection service by just typing the http://www.mydomain.co.nz. As simple as that!
However, there are still some instances regardless of the existence of the domain name redirection service, in which many internet users added a domain name redirection but still did not work. If such case happens, it is just necessary to be aware that most of the domain name redirection updates are visible immediately, but then it may take for up to 24 hours to be viewed if you have just registered or transferred a domain name. In some instances, the domain name redirection updates may also take up for up to one hour if you have had a prior "A" record that is pointed to an Internet Protocol (IP) address which is turn is not related with the domain name redirection service. But then, despite these circumstances, you can actually obtain a status on the visibility of your records that are related with the domain name redirection by just applying the function of the zone management interface.
So now that you know something about the domain name redirection service, probably you want to find some domain name redirection services. So if such desire in you is intense, then there is the www.namesecure.com and www.yahoo.com which are among the most popular and reliable domain name redirection services

The idea of writing this book came to me while doing research for an educational pack on Holocaust art and I came across a series of prints by Leo Haas. I was intrigued by their haunting and unusual subject matter: a Nazi guard barring an empty street; fearful children being herded along a road by an armed soldier; gaunt people crowded together on the floor of a filthy attic; dozens of wide-eyed people with suitcases reluctantly stepping towards an unknown future.
I discovered that Haas had been a Jewish artist imprisoned by the Nazis in the Czech fortress of Terezín, along with many other accomplished artists. Drawing in secret, with the ever-present fear of being discovered, Haas and the other artists vividly depicted the harsh daily life of Terezín's inmates – sleeping in overcrowded dormitories, queuing for food, frequent deaths and regular deportations to Auschwitz.
I found that not only was there a wealth of potent illustrations of Terezín life, but also all sorts of other material resources, including official documents, bank notes, ration books, vaccination certificates and thousands of children's drawings. I realised that these would form a compelling visual basis for an accessible book for young people about the Holocaust, based almost wholly on primary evidence. Next I needed to find out about people's experiences of the camp.
So began a period of research trawling libraries and archives in London, Prague and Terezín. I found a wealth of diaries, published memoirs and historical accounts from which to draw extracts. I also spent many rather harrowing hours listening to recorded interviews with survivors of Terezín at the Imperial War Museum.
In Terezín itself, I saw for myself the buildings, roads and fortifications shown in the artists' works. It was a moving and humbling experience to be in the place where so many thousands of Jewish inmates had suffered.
It was essential to marry pictures and words to tell a complete story – the book interweaves drawings, paintings, documents and ephemera with many first-hand accounts of life in Terezín; I wove the narrative in and around the pictures. I also decided to include some contemporary photographs of the town as it is today. I wanted to show that the places depicted in the artworks are completely real and still standing, a tangible and chilling reminder of a terrible moment in history.
I didn't want to tell the story myself. Those who lived through the horrendous experience of being at Terezín described what happened far better than I ever could. My role was to orchestrate their stories into a coherent and telling narrative.

South Sudan says its oil region under attack again
By Yara Bayoumy
JUBA (Reuters) - South Sudan accused Sudan of launching an attack in an oil region of the newly independent state on Tuesday and said it was preparing to strike back, in another sign of the festering violence along the frontier.
The scale of the fighting was not immediately clear.
Weeks of border clashes have stoked fears that South Sudan and its northern neighbour could return to all-out war after failing to resolve wrangles over oil revenues, border demarcation and other issues since the south seceded last year.
Philip Aguer, spokesman for South Sudan's army, the SPLA, said Sudanese forces, militias and mercenaries attacked their positions in Hofra in the oil region of Unity state, where there have been a number of strikes in the past week.
"The SPLA is pursuing them and has repulsed the attackers. They have also captured three trucks," Aguer said.
He also said the SPLA would counter what he said was a planned attack by Sudanese army forces on the disputed border towns of Jau and Paryang.
The Sudanese army spokesman was not immediately available for comment.
The renewed fighting and hostile rhetoric between the former civil war foes have prompted the United Nations to take up the crisis at the Security Council. Continued...

According to Yahoo News, a group of four people protested a spelling bee in Washington DC. The cause for the dissatisfaction? The complication of the English language:
Roberta Mahoney, 81, a former Fairfax County, Va. elementary school principal, said the current language obstructs 40 percent of the population from learning how to read, write and spell.
"Our alphabet has 425-plus ways of putting words together in illogical ways," Mahoney said.
The protesting cohort distributed pins to willing passers-by with their logo, "Enuf is enuf. Enough is too much."
According to literature distributed by the group, it makes more sense for "fruit" to be spelled as "froot," "slow" should be "slo," and "heifer" — a word spelled correctly during the first oral round of the bee Thursday by Texas competitor Ramesh Ghanta — should be "hefer."
Logically speaking, these protesters have a point. The English language is indeed needlessly complex. The extent to which it hampers people from learning the language is something that I can only guess at…however, through the benefit of hindsight (or hindsite?), they can plan out how to optimally structure language. The problem is, language (verbal and written) is something that evolves in real time…and it's almost impossible to control.
The problem that I have with the protester's intent is that the English language is very robust because of it's lack of planning, and inefficiency. The English language includes a lot of words, and a lot of ways to structure words that allow new concepts to have interesting (to say the least) naming conventions. This is a feature of evolution, and a feature that you would be hard-pressed to find in real-time planning.
The complexity of the English language is what makes the network resilient. Which is why I was happy to continue reading the article to find this paragraph:
Meanwhile, inside the hotel's Independence Ballroom, 273 spellers celebrated the complexity of the language in all its glory, correctly spelling words like zaibatsu, vibrissae and biauriculate.
Cheers to you, novel spellers!
P.S. Matt Yglesias offers a different (decidedly pro) perspective.

Highway 371 to be targeted during ice fishing contest
Highway 371 to be targeted during ice fishing contest
NISSWA — Towards Zero Deaths (TZD) overtime shifts for driving while intoxicated (DWI) enforcement are scheduled Saturday, targeting Highway 371 from Baxter to Walker during the 23rd annual Brainerd Jaycees $150,000 Ice Fishing Extravaganza held Gull Lake's Gull Lake's Hole-in-the-Day Bay.
The Minnesota State Patrol is urging motorists to buckle up, drive at safe speeds, pay attention and plan in advance for a sober ride. Motorists are encouraged to be very careful driving through the Nisswa area near Gull Lake during the event. The busiest times for traffic will be in the morning until noon, and again at 3 p.m. through the early night time.
"This area has been selected as the primary enforcement zone due to the anticipated influx of motorists traveling to and from the area for the event, " State Patrol Lt. Joe Dwyer said in a news release. "Make smart decisions behind the wheel and don't take the risk of driving impaired."
Troopers will be working with several other local agencies to direct traffic in several locations near the event as well as providing additional support of extra troopers looking for impaired drivers and other violations.
The extra shifts will be assigned to troopers who would normally be on a scheduled day off, with the intention of increasing trooper complement for this special event," says Dwyer.

Caused by a bite from an infected tick, Lyme disease has the early symptoms that are unpleasant but respond well to antibiotics. However, if diagnosis is delayed or mistaken, the illness can take a serious turn, leading to severe joint pain, brain infection and paralysis.
Now Dr Richard Bingham at the University of Huddersfield is on the trail of an accurate test that will enable quick and accurate detection of Lyme disease.
Dr Richard Bingham's goal is an accurate test that will mean quick and effective treatment of a tick-borne ailment that can have devastating effects
The British Paralympic archer Mel Clarke has spoken about her devastating experiences after she caught the infection while competing in the UK's able-bodied archery team in the USA. She is now confined to a wheelchair and has issued urgent advice not to ignore the early symptoms of the disease.
Lyme disease's flu-like early symptoms, including chronic tiredness, are shared with many ailments, so that doctors face diagnostic dilemmas. If treatment begins at a late stage, patients face a gruelling 28-day course of anti-biotics - and even after that, symptoms can return.
Dr Bingham's research focuses on the cause of Lyme disease, a spiral-shaped bacteria named Borrelia burgdorferi, which has the capacity to bind itself to human proteins, enabling it to invade various tissues and to camouflage itself against immune systems. Unlike most bacteria, it can even cross the "blood-brain barrier", leading to serious neurological infection.
Borrelia is carried by ticks, and in the UK and Europe they lurk in long, damp grass or on the branches of trees.
"When a warm blooded mammal comes along, the ticks attach themselves to the skin and start to feed," explained Dr Bingham.
"The bacteria is actually inside the gut of the tick and it gets injected into the host through the salivary glands of the tick and once in your bloodstream, it starts to reproduce and can cause a quite nasty infection."
The first sign is a circular "bullseye rash" as the bacteria spread out from the bite. Then they gain access to the bloodstream and will cause symptoms including a high temperature and tiredness.
"But many people have such flu-like symptoms and they don't realise they have got this bacterial infection, so they don't go to the doctors and therefore miss these classic signs of Lyme disease, " said Dr Bingham.
Diagnosis and anti-biotic treatment at this early stage is vital in order to avoid the stage of infection known as late-borreliosis.
But doctors are confronted by symptoms that are shared by a number of diseases and conditions, making diagnosis difficult.
Now, assisted by two PhD students and an undergraduate researcher, Dr Bingham is using techniques including X-ray diffraction, small angle X-ray scattering and circular dichroism spectroscopy in order to reproduce the bacterial proteins that lead to Lyme disease. He will be aided by a major programme of investment in laboratory facilities at the chemistry department of the University's School of Applied Sciences.
The research will result in greater understanding of the molecular structure of Borrelia, which could lead to new treatments. Also, the pharmaceutical industry could also develop new diagnostic tools so that Lyme disease can conclusively be detected at an early stage.

Here's the first trailer for Fox's Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes, the sequel to its hit 2011 franchise reboot that bows on July 11, 2014. Andy Serkis is back as top primate Caesar, with Gary Oldman aboard to lead the human survivors of a devastating virus unleashed a decade earlier. The humans reach a fragile peace with the genetically evolved apes, but it's short-lived as both sides are brought to the brink of a war that will determine who will emerge as Earth's dominant species. The Matt Reeves-directed sequel also stars Jason Clarke, Judy Greer, Keri Russell and Kodi-Smit McPhee. Check out the chilling tease below:
Hot Trailer: 'Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes'
17 Comments
Braveheart Caesar
Ha ha…exactly. Nicely done.
I loved all the POA films as a kid. 5 of them…all very, very cool.
Not a James Franco fan. Glad he's not in this one.
And Matt and Kodi did a great job with the remake of 'Let the Right One In", so I'm happy too they're working together again.
Good luck to this one.
This just jumped up a few notches on my must see list. Far better teaser than the one Fox has out there for XMenDOFP.
That was awesome . Tease done right
I agree it looks dark, gritty and more intense film than Rise. I didn't really know what to expect, however this teaser is really good.
Well I'm officially sold…
That looked great all the way up until the CG. The close up of the ape was great but as it pulled back, it just gets too video game-looking. CG is obviously here to stay but I hope in the next few years, they can really refine it and make this stuff photo real. I've seen some great examples on Zbrush but those are stills.
Will definitely be seeing this movie anyway.
You're complaining about one shot where the background is out of focus and may not even be finished yet? How jaded people have gotten with special effects today-they expect everything to be perfect. Be happy you get to see all the amazing, incredible things on screen today. You can literally see anything imaginable in movies today. You should have grown up in the 20's or 30's. Or even the 60's and 70's where we had to rely on stop-motion for the best looking animated creatures. Stop your whining.
THIS is how you do a teaser trailer…..CHRISTOPHER NOLAN.
Not too much, not too little.
What enjoyment do people get out of bad CGI. None of the apes look real, let alone alive or a threat. But go, they will.
But "Who Is Darkman"?
Now THAT'S a trailer…
Nicely done!
Uh-oh, no more Mr Nice Ape…
Not sure how this is a franchise if the apes are the villains.
Very Cool Teaser!
This movie will succeed, because of Jason Clarke. A phenomenal actor, with tremendous range and intensity, he alone could fight those apes most likely…

In the typical case, a child between 3 and 7 years of age experiences language problems, with or without seizures. The language disorder may start suddenly or slowly. It usually affects the child's understanding of spoken language the most, but it may affect both understanding speech and speaking ability, or it may affect speaking only.
Seizures are usually few and often occur during sleep. Simple partial seizures involving movement are most common, but tonic-clonic seizures can also occur.
The Landau-Kleffner syndrome is a rare disorder. It begins during childhood, with language disorders starting between ages 3 and 7 years.
Seizure control is rarely a problem, but standard seizure medications are not often effective against the language disorder. Drugs such as Lamictal (lamotrigine), Keppra (levetiracetam), and Depakote (valproate) sometimes help. High dose diazepam given at bedtime has resulted in excellent improvement in some children. Steroids have also shown some efficacy, improving both the EEG and language.
A new form of epilepsy surgery, multiple subpial transections in which multiple small slices are made in brain cortex, may improve both the EEG abnormalities and the language disorder in a small number of children. This procedure is still being studied in various epilepsy centers.
After age 10, only 20% of patients still have seizures. The clinical course of the disorder fluctuates and it occasionally disappears on its own.
Some children are left with permanent language difficulties. Most commonly, these are children in whom medical or surgical therapy does not eliminate the epileptic patterns on the EEG.

UMM Constitution Revision Committee
Meeting # 7: May 1, 2006
Present: M.E. Bezanson (Chair), R. Heyman, M. Korth, T. McRoberts (secretary), J. Ratliff-Crain, K. Strissel, G. Thorson, R. Wareham, R. Webb
∑ Committees [Assembly/non-Assemblyãadministrative committees]
∑ All committees in constitution and by-laws are Assembly committees (in the sense that they are committees of the Campus Assembly), but there are other committees appointed by Chancellor or others.
∑ How are new committees to be created? (not clear)
∑ It was suggested that all committees be delineated in the by-laws and none be listed in the constitution.
∑ Should there be distinction between assembly and adjunct committees?
∑ Some strong opinions about the need for differentiated committee stature. The ≥big five≤ are Curriculum, Scholastic, Campus Resources and Planning, Student Services and (most recent) Assessment of Student Learning. They are broadly representative of the campus community, have on-going work each and every year and have broad policy oversight. Adjunct committees are more focused in charge and membership is smaller.
∑ There are other committees in the Assembly, such as the Consultative and Executive committees, which are elected. The same is true of the Faculty Affairs Committee.
∑ The Chancellor is empowered to establish ad hoc committees and Task Forces that advise him or her.
∑ Who votes on committees? It varies from committee to committee. Administrators are usually ex-officio.
Article IX is superfluous and should be deleted. (See Article III, Section 7B.)
There is need to clarify committee jurisdiction:
∑ appointing authority
∑ membership
∑ powers
How do we change the constitution? Not clear how it can be changed. Vote of membership is needed for changes to constitution. This raised a question about how membership is determined and quorum requirements.
There was then discussion about participation in the Assemblyãcould there be temporary approval to opt in or out of the Assembly and committees (over a semester or so). In short, how do we more fully engage the campus community in the Assembly and its committees, and what are the consequences of non-participation?
Members felt that participation in Assembly would improve if there was more consideration given to timing of meetings.
Statement for the Assembly to contain these elements:
∑ committee has done a detailed review of the constitution and bylaws
∑ committee has identified areas in need of revision in constitution
∑ over the coming year, the committee will share drafts of its plans for the constitution by the web, and perhaps through public meetings
∑ the committee is committed to retaining UMMπs long standing commitment to broad participation and shared governance.

With the issue of abortion once again playing a starring role in South Carolina's quadrennial "First in the South" presidential primary election, you might be tempted to assume that the Palmetto State is the most "pro-life" state in the nation.
Is it? Seriously … we're asking. Does anybody know how the Palmetto State stacks up when it comes to life issues? Because judging by the preponderance of Bible-thumpers living in South Carolina, you'd think we would be No. 1 – or at the very least in the top five.
Not so, according to Americans United for Life (AUL) – a group that ranks each state based on its commitment to "life-affirming policies." According to the AUL's 2012 "Life List," South Carolina ranks No. 20 in the nation when it comes to defending life.

Washington, California, Hawaii, Vermont, and Montana fared worst on the list, while Louisiana, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Nebraska, and Arkansas fared best.

From X-ray specs to Polaris nuclear submarines, the amazing products advertised in classic comics never failed to capture kids' imaginations. Shockingly, most of these fascinating offers fell far short of the reality mark.
Cracked.com takes a look at a dozen vintage comic-book ads, and pins the sad tale of disappointment on the ever-happy donkey of possibility:
As kids, every so often we'd come across an ad in a comic book, for something we knew was too good to be true. But still, we'd put money in an envelope and four to six weeks later, get something amazing that would make the rest of our lives whole lot easier. That thing? Disappointment.
Perhaps the most shocking thing in Cracked's comic-book exposé of what you really got when you mailed in your money is this revelation: The monkey in a teacup offer — "Friends! Here's how to get at almost no cost, [a] new, live miniature monkey" — was actually legit. Jump through enough hoops and you could find yourself in receipt of an actual living, breathing monkey.

Of course, there is no way they could have released Chrome, Android, Books, or any other service if they did not acquire Doubleclick. Your article is weak.

Date of Stay: July, 2007
We arrived on 4th of July and the owners were very helpful. When you arrive they escort you to your site and even help you set up! The owners also helped us find out where the fireworks show would be in Durango and were to see them best. The kid were welcome here as well. We liked the fact the campground was not near the highway and it was in a beautiful and quiet setting.When we left some of the staff helped my husband hookup the trailer while I was finishing laundry.We have a tricky hitch. We would stay here again.
Date of Stay: August, 2006
Small park,overlooked Topaz Lake. Quiet for the most part. Gravel sites, good space between sites. No cell service at all in the area. Close to Minden/Carson City.
Date of Stay: August, 2006
This park is all dirt no gravel sites, so the kids will be always dirty. The park staff was not helpful and if forgot anything you better get it before 5 because the store closes right at 5. We left early due to the crowded sites, noisy people and the loose dirt. Laundry was dirty and the change machine didn't even work.My husband wanted to fish but there was not good areas by the park at all.
Date of Stay: June, 2006
We stayed hear overnight on the way back from Yellowstone and will not stay here again. Small sites, dirty and a lot of road noise.
Date of Stay: June, 2006
This is the best park we have stayed at. It was very clean, staff was friendly . Showers were clean and private. Requires a code to enter. Very close to Yellowstone entrance. WiFi was available but you had to pay after 15 minutes of use. We will stay here again and have recommended it to friends.
Date of Stay: April, 2006
This park is all asphalt. If you are looking for any grass or even shade it won't be here. We paid for an ocean view site. We had the view with a very high chain link fence as well. The security features ( the security gate) are good and close to the Zoo and Sea World. If you check in late hopefully you get someone that knows what they are doing. We didn't. Showers are clean but very small and not to private.
Date of Stay: August, 2005
Very busy park, showers were not clean and you had to get a token everyday to gain access to the showers. Showers were timed as well and not very private. Access to river was difficult you had to walk through other sites to access the river. Dirt not gravel sites. Crowded sites. Had difficulty park even with our old 25 ft. Great views and easy access to Zion and Springdale. Next time we will stay in Zion , less crowded and quieter.

New Jersey Health Department: Nutley tanning mom's salon 'overexposes' customer
Responding to attention surrounding the Nutley "tanning mom," the state health department conducted an inspection of City Tropics salon in Nutley. The department has levied thousands of dollars in penalties against the establishment, alleging among other violations, "overexposing" a customer, who documents did not name.
New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services assessed $5,200 in penalties for violations of the Tanning Facilities rules, according to documents the Sun obtained from the state. Fourteen violations were cited, including equipment not being properly disinfected after use, and not having training and manufacturer documentation and manuals for review.
A $3,900 fine was levied for failing to ensure customers didn't exceed the maximum exposure time for their "skin phototype," stating a "review of consumer tanning session records found instances of consumer overexposure."
The report cited one customer being permitted 24 tanning sessions in March. Using the manufacturer's exposure schedule, the maximum permitted sessions for a customer with "an established base tan" would be weekly visits, resulting in the "consumer being "overexposed by 20 sessions," according to the documents.
Owner Anthony Ruccatano told the Sun he was unaware of the state's levying fines.
Ruccatano said previously that Patricia Krentcil, who is accused of child endangerment, used an unlimited membership to tan approximately 20 times a month. If the "overexposed" customer is Krentcil, Ruccatano said the claim is "ridiculous."
It's impossible to judge a customer already tanned, based on record reviews, Ruccatano said. Krentcil uses a bronzing agent for her appearance, he added.
The alleged overexposure, repeatedly appearing on the customer records, could refer to him putting his name down for promotional tans or to explain the equipment's usage during repairs, Ruccatano said.
The owner disputed not cleaning the beds, saying "we do about five loads of laundry a day," of towels, and that customers come to the parlor for its cleanliness.
Other infractions cited included an unclear FDA label on a sun bed and incomplete records. One penalty resulted from incorrect font size on the parlor's age restriction sign. These each carry a $100 fine.
If the violations aren't addressed following a re-inspection, the department "may choose to suspend or revoke [City Tropics] certificate of registration," a notice to the salon stated. The business has a right to an informal conference or formal hearing.
The state gave the salon conditional satisfactory rating, which could change to satisfactory following an unannounced follow-up inspection, DHSS Director of Communications Donna Leusner said. The fines will remain, she added.
The state's visit to City Tropics was "an unusual circumstance." Local health departments normally conduct inspections, but due to "the high profile situation," the NJDHSS conducted the May 14 review with Montclair officials. Nutley is contracted with the Montclair Health Department.
The Centre Street salon is allegedly where Krentcil's then 5-year old daughter sustained first-degree burns from entering a stand-up tanning booth. Krentcil was charged with child endangerment following an investigation that began at the child's school.
Both City Tropics and Krentcil have denied the allegations that the daughter entered the tanning booth. Ruccatano said publicity has earned him about 100 new customers.
Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United States, with approximately 3.5 million people diagnosed annually, Leusner said. Overexposure to sunlamps results in about 3,000 visits to the emergency room a year.

PIKEVILLE, Ky. – The Pike County (Ky.) Grand Jury determined that the KSP trooper involved in the fatal shooting of John Casey acted under reasonable circumstances and the use of force was justified under KRS 503.050 which permits the use of deadly force when necessary.
The following information is a report issued from the grand jury regarding the incident that occurred on July 31. The grand jury hearing took place on Wednesday, Sept. 21.
The Pike County Ky. grand jury heard testimony regarding an incident that happened July 31, in the Freeburn community of Pike County.
Trooper Jonathan Rouse shot John A. Casey one time in the chest and John Casey died shortly after being shot.
Trooper Rouse and Trooper Harold Rowe responded to a complaint of an assault committed by Lacy Wolford. Trooper Rouse and Trooper Rowe met and discussed the situation and this history of violence from John Casey and Lacy Wolford before proceeding to the scene.
After arriving at the scene, Trooper Rouse encountered John Casey and advised him that he was under arrest for an outstanding warrant. Lacy Wolford ran away and was chased by Trooper Rowe and Trooper Rouse. John Casey took that opportunity to flee and ran into the woods in a different direction than Lacy Wolford.
Trooper Rouse returned and discovered that John Casey had run away after being told he was under arrest. He searched unsuccessfully for Casey.
Trooper Rouse returned to his vehicle. John Casey came out of the woods in an area where he was above Trooper Rouse and taunted Trooper Rouse and threw a rock that hit him in the head. Casey threw another rock that missed Trooper Rouse and continued taunting the trooper and told him that he was not going back to jail.
Trooper Rouse saw Casey reach into his pocket and pull out something silver that Trooper Rouse feared was a weapon. Trooper Rouse then fired one shot from his handgun resulting in the death of Casey. The silver object pulled out of Casey's pocket was a can of beer.
The grand jury heard testimony that Casey had a blood alcohol level of .100 percent and a level of Gabapentin of 9.8 mcg per ml. He had no prescription for the Gabapentin. The blood alcohol level exceeded the amount at which a driver is presumed to be under the influence of alcohol for DUI purposes. This incident happened at about 9 a.m.
The grand jury finds the use of force by Trooper Rouse was reasonable under the circumstances and justified by Kentucky law. The use of force was justified by KRS 503.050 which permits the use of deadly force when such force is necessary to protect one's self against death or serious physical injury. KRS 503.090 also gives a peace officer the legal right to use deadly force in certain circumstances when making an arrest. The grand jury notes throwing a rock at a trooper could be considered third degree assault, a Class D felony.
The death of John Casey would have been avoided had he simply submitted to the arrest and remained at the scene. When John Casey fled the scene and later returned to taunt the trooper, he unreasonably escalated the situation.
The grand jury regularly sees media reports of peace officers being killed in the line of duty. Law enforcement officers should be placed in jeopardy of being killed by people resisting lawful arrests. The proper response to being placed under arrest is to submit to that arrest and let the legal process take place. Had John Casey done this, there is no doubt he would be alive today.

|st: Re: Size of PNG graphs: xsize, ysize don't work
|Mon, 22 Aug 2005 22:02:18 -0700 (PDT)
Someone wrote to me and asked if I found a solution to a problem that I described in a posting to Statalist in March. Yes, I did and I apologize for not having shared the solution with the list sooner. I was looking for a way to specify the size of PNG graphs that are exported from Stata. Stata tech support suggested that this can be done by exporting the graph as a PostScript file and converting it to PNG format with a third-party utility like Ghostscript (www.ghostscript.com). Ghostscript can be called from a do-file via a shell command to automate the creation of PNG files. The example below creates a PNG file with the dimensions 500 by 400 pixels. #delimit ; sysuse auto; * Set options for PostScript export; graph set ps pagesize custom; graph set ps pagewidth 5; graph set ps pageheight 4; graph set ps tmargin 0; graph set ps lmargin 0; graph set ps logo off; graph set ps fontface Helvetica; * Draw graph and export to PostScript file; scatter mpg weight, xsize(5) ysize(4); graph export "scatter.ps"; * Convert PostScript file to PNG format; shell "C:\gs\gs8.51\bin\gswin32c.exe" -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -r100 -g500x400 -sDEVICE=png16m -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 -dTextAlphaBits=4 -sOutputFile="scatter.png" "scatter.ps"; A detailed explanation of the process an be found at these sites (both contain the same text): http://huebler.info/2005/20050407_Stata_PNG.html http://huebler.blogspot.com/2005/04/creating-png-images-with-stata.html I work with Stata 8.2 and don't know if this is still an issue with Stata 9.

Bermane Stiverne: "This fight is not going the distance!"
By David Finger; Photos by Mary Ann Owen w/BoxingInLasVegas.com
Boxing fans have waited a long time for this, almost as long as Bermane Stiverne. On May 10th he will take part in a historic heavyweight fight that will see either boxing's first Haitian born heavyweight champion or boxing's first Mexican-American heavyweight champion. Regardless of who wins, it will be the first time in awhile that someone not named "Klitschko" will be holding a belt for one of the major sanctioning organizations.
For Stiverne, a lifetime dream is about to come true. All he has to do is repeat the performance he pulled off back in April of last year. All he has to do is beat Chris Arreola.
"We pretty much trained the same way we did for the last camp," Stiverne told FightNews. "(Which is) do what we did even better. I'm actually doing better than we did the last time. I'm in great position mentally and physically. I feel better. I've been doing all the work. I know what I needed last year. I'm doing the same from last camp and doing a little bit more and I'm doing it better."
No," Stiverne said when asked if there was anything he was planning on adjusting in regards to his fight plan. "It's up to Arreola. It's really up to him. I believe that he's going to bring the best out of me for this fight."
The buzz is already setting the sport on fire, where boxing fans are excited about something that hasn't been seen this century: a truly explosive heavyweight championship fight. With Arreola and Stiverne both considered two of the hardest punchers in the ring, there is already talk of this fight rivaling the old school heavyweight wars of the 70s, with comparisons to George Foreman-Ron Lyle being passed around.
"Definitely," Stiverne said when asked if he expected a war. "Everyone knows what Arreola brings to the table."
For Stiverne, the distractions leading up to this fight were momentous. After thinking he would be fighting Vitali Klitschko for the title he saw his title fight pushed back time and time again, only to disappear completely.
Now, with his fight against Arreola close to becoming a reality, another Klitschko is stealing some of the limelight. Wladimir Klitschko has already come out an indicated a desire to fight the winner, a move that Stiverne has refused to let distract him.
"Klitschko is out of my mind right now," Stiverne said. "I'm not interested in what he had to say or anything about him. I didn't even watch the fight last week. I'm only focused on getting that green belt."
The hard punching bomber dismisses claims from Arreola that poor training was the major deciding factor in the last fight, and that Arreola's new found dedication will turn things around.
Stiverne disregards Arreola's explanation for his loss.
"I don't have anything to say," Stiverne said when told of Arreola's claim. "It's all excuses to me. Last I checked, I thought we were professional athletes. I can't speak for anyone around his camp, but that's not my problem. I'm not concerned with if he will be coming in shape or not because it wont make any difference."
Stiverne is certain of one thing: On May 10th the fight will end in a knockout.
"This fight is not going the distance. I can guarantee that. I can't tell you what round, but its not going the distance."
