New Braunfels Herald Zeitung (Newspaper) - August 21, 1987, New Braunfels, Texas Religious Focus Page 6 Herald-Ze/funp, New Braunfels. Texas Friday. August 21 1987 Ministerial Alliance A different kind of security By PASTOR RON WALTER Our prison system has been a hotly contested and controversial issue in our state for the past few years. Overcrowding, violence, and early releases are problems that will con tinue to have direct effects on all society. One of the reasons we have prisons is to provide a sense of security, that w'e who keep the law will be protected from those who break the law But what does it mean to live day by day without fear, having all our needs taken care of? Really, if you want a "sense of security" in life, choose a prison Get yourself sentenced for IO years and you will be given food, shelter, clothing, medical care, and safety from intruders All you give up is freedom. The Bible declares that we love darkness rather than light Mankind has demonstrated over and over that it would rather live in a prison of self centeredness, greed, and hate rather than have the freedom of love and concern for one another Jesus Christ died to give us a chance to leave this prison and join Him in the glorious kingdom of light Unfortunately, only a few choose to leave the prison We continue to build higher walls of indifference, prejudice and greed, walls which shut us out from the cries of the world, lf we are willing to step out from behind these man-made walls. God will give us a new kind of security Outside the walls, the Lord will give us a new sense of purpose in life He will free us from the guilt and punishment of sin He wil protect us from life's gnawing meaningless And greatest of all. He will release us from the bonds of death itself God offers total pardon, a new freedom as a free gift paid for by His son. Jesus Christ this new kind of security allows us to say each day. "Today is the first day of the rest of my life. let me rejoice and be glad in it " Briefly Sts.

Mastercard Send will now be the payment rails behind Stripe's instant payout feature along with Visa, it was announced today by the parties involved. This function allows Stripe sellers—such as Lyft drivers—to receive payments, well, instantly.
"These marketplaces [in the sharing economy] that have popped up aren't going away, and we think it's a very important part of the economy," says senior vice president of digital payments for Mastercard Sherri Haymond. "We think it's great that it's possible for people to make a living either full or part-time with these jobs, and We're making sure they can be paid conveniently and securely."
Not to mention quickly. Delivery people, for example, will be able to use Stripe's instant payouts to receive their money in seconds (and if not seconds, then definitely less than 30 minutes) as opposed to waiting for a traditional pay cycle. This is a great benefit especially for the sharing economy, as it provides sellers in with quicker access to their payments.
Stripe's instant payouts feature is available to any U.S.-based seller that's running on Stripe Connect—including sites like Care.com (which matches families with nannies and other caregivers) and Lyft's Express Pay, which is powered by Stripe's feature.
"Previously what we offered was weekly payouts; it was a weekly cycle and an ACH transfer, so it took a few days," says Stripe card infrastructure lead Lachy Groom. "Now it's shifted from weekly to being on-demand; you have complete flexibility. You could be a Lyft driver driving around at 3am and get paid out immediately."
Lyft Express Pay, which is powered by Stripe's instant payouts feature (which now has the full force of the Mastercard Send and Visa networks behind it), has been available to drivers since last year and since its launch, more than 50% of Lyft driver payouts are now happening through the service.
Plus, as Groom points out, there are dozens of marketplaces powered by Stripe that can take advantage of the updated speed and visibility of the payment network, even if they may not know it—1 in 3 Americans have paid with Stripe, without realizing it, and now it's possible for even more people to do so as companies who might not have the resources to partner with Mastercard or Visa's networks can just integrate with Stripe.
"This makes it available to anyone, instantly," says Groom. "We love partnering with Mastercard and Visa on this. We looked through a number of different options [for faster payments] and ultimately settled on the credit networks for their speed and visibility."
Mastercard Send also powers realtime payments for Uber drivers via GoBank for Uber, according to Mastercard. Faster payments are coming along faster than expected. Later this week ACH will switch from once-daily batches to two daily settlements, meaning payments sent in the morning may settle by evening, rather than arriving the next business day (or later.)

Medication reconciliation at admission and discharge: a time and motion study
Organization, structure and delivery of healthcare
Medication reconciliation at admission, transfer and discharge has been designated as a required hospital practice to reduce adverse drug events. However, implementation challenges have resulted in poor hospital adherence. The aim of this study was to assess the processes required to carry out medication reconciliation: the health professionals involved, the tasks and time devoted to medication reconciliation in general hospital settings.
A time-and-motion study design was used. Using a systematic sample of patients admitted and discharged from geriatric, medical and surgical units in two academic centers, health professionals involved in medication reconciliation were observed and timed. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the number of professionals involved, tasks performed, and mean time devoted.
Up to 3 professionals from 2 disciplines (medicine and pharmacy) were involved in the medication reconciliation process. Geriatric reconciliations took the most time to complete at admission (mean: 92.2 minutes (SD = 44.3)) and discharge (mean: 29.0 minutes (SD = 23.8)), followed by internal medicine at admission (mean: 46.2 minutes (SD = 21.1)) and 19.4 (SD = 11.7) minutes at discharge) and general surgery minutes at discharge (mean: 9.9 minutes (SD = 18.2)). Considerable differences in order, type and number of tasks performed were noted between and within units. Tasks independent of direct patient interaction took more than twice the time required to complete than tasks requiring patient interaction.
Lack of coordination, specialized training and agreement on the roles and responsibilities of professionals are among the most probable reasons for work-flow inefficiencies, possibly variability in quality, and time required for the current medication reconciliation process. A better understanding of the admission processes in general surgery is required. Standardization and use of electronic tools could improve efficiency and hospital adherence.
Adverse drug events (ADEs) are the sixth leading cause of death in the United States
Medication reconciliation has been recommended to reduce adverse drug events. Defined as a "formal process of obtaining a complete and accurate list of each patient's current home medications – including name, dosage, frequency and route – and comparing the physician's admission, transfer, and discharge orders to that list"
Although nurses and physicians believe that medication reconciliation is associated with significant improvements in patient safety
This study took place between January 1st and August 31st, 2011 at two urban, tertiary care academic hospitals affiliated with the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) in Montreal, Canada: the Royal Victoria Hospital (517 beds and approximately 22,000 admissions per year) and the Montreal General Hospital (417 beds and approximately 15,000 admissions per year)
Design and study population
A time and motion study
Tasks and timing of medication reconciliation processes
To determine the tasks performed during a typical medication reconciliation, interviews were conducted with health professionals known to be involved in the process in the units of geriatrics (N = 4) and internal medicine (N = 2). The following tasks were defined for medication reconciliation at admission: (1) tasks completed
Data was collected by two trained research assistants using portable laptops. This allowed the research assistants to follow the patient when visits to different health professionals were required to complete the medication reconciliation process. Health care professionals, known to be involved the process, were approached, if they were on duty at the time of the study, and asked for their consent to be timed by a research assistant (N = 53). Health professionals were shadowed on the units. Timing software was created in Microsoft Access 2003 (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, WA) to collect information on the time required for each task. The software was designed to allow a trained research assistant to click once beside a task from the user's list in order to start timing, and then to click again in order to stop the timing. For each pair of clicks the following information was logged in the database: research assistant's initials, name and type of health care professional, task being timed, and an anonymous patient identification. No patient information such as clinical or demographic characteristics was recorded. If multiple health care professionals were involved in performing the medication reconciliation tasks for the same patient, each professional was timed for their respective contribution. Data collection was done between Monday and Friday, from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM. We specifically limited our study to these time periods to characterize the medication reconciliation process during optimal staffing conditions.
Statistical analysis
Descriptive statistics were produced, summarizing the number and types of health care professionals involved as well as the tasks and time devoted to medication reconciliation at admission and discharge in each unit. To determine the number and types of different health care professionals involved, the health care professionals who participated in one or more tasks were counted per medication reconciliation, separately for admission and discharge. The frequency of having one, two or three health care professionals involved in the reconciliations was then calculated by type of health care professional and by unit. To determine the mean overall time devoted per type of reconciliation (admission or discharge), the total time spent by health care professionals was first added per task, then for all tasks, and then divided by the total number of reconciliations in that unit. All analyses were performed using SAS software (SAS version 9.2, Institute, Inc., Cary, North Carolina).
Health care professionals involved in medication reconciliation
All of the approached health care professionals (N = 40) provided written consent to have their work observed and timed by a research assistant. These professionals consisted of 11 pharmacists, 4 pharmacy students, 7 physicians, 12 residents, and 6 medical students. In total, 103 medication reconciliations were observed: 41 at admission (21 from geriatrics and 20 from internal medicine) and 62 at discharge (21 from geriatrics, 21 from internal medicine and 20 from general surgery) (Table
Time required for completion of tasks related for admission medication reconciliation
Admission reconciliation took twice as long to conduct in geriatrics compared to internal medicine (mean 92.2 minutes (SD = 44.3) and 46.2 minutes (SD = 21.1)) (Table
In both units, documenting and reviewing the admission medication list, a subtask of
Time required for completion of tasks related to discharge medication reconciliation
Medication reconciliation at discharge took nearly half the time of admission reconciliation (Table
In this study, we examined the workforce and time requirements to conduct medication reconciliation at admission and discharge in geriatrics, internal medicine and general surgery at two Canadian hospitals. First, up to three different health care professionals from two different disciplines were involved in the medication reconciliation process. Specifically, medication reconciliations in geriatrics and internal medicine most often involved one health care professional at admission (pharmacist or pharmacy student), and two at discharge (physicians and pharmacists), while in general surgery there was only one (usually junior) health care professional (resident or medical student). Second, a large number of tasks and subtasks were performed during the process; however there was large variation in their execution, both between and within study units. For example, the subtask of
Our findings suggest workflow inefficiencies in medication reconciliation, which could be compromising the overall efficiency, quality, and institutional ability to implement the process. The number and types of health care professionals involved, as well as the inconsistencies of involvement within units, reflect a lack of consensus with regards to each profession's roles and/or responsibilities, as well as a lack of specialized training for conducting medication reconciliation
While geriatric reconciliations were expected to be longer, due to the fact that the number of medications generally increases with age
In order to insure patient safety at low cost, optimizing medication reconciliation is essential. Despite increasing the demand for health professionals, involvement of more than one type of professional (particularly pharmacists and physicians) can enhance the quality of the overall process. For example, involvement of pharmacy staff during medication reconciliation results in obtaining an accurate medication history more often than when pharmacy staff are not involved
The implementation of health informatics tools for medication reconciliation could decrease demands on staff, standardize practice, reduce time and increase hospital compliance
In Quebec (Canada), the Medical Office of the 21st Century (MOXXI)
Three important study limitations are worth noting. First, we recognize the possibility of the Hawthorne effect
More than half of ADEs occurring in hospitals result from medication discrepancies. While medication reconciliation is essential in reducing such ADEs and considered as a required hospital practice, challenges to its implementation result in poor hospital adherence. This study evaluated the number and type of different health care professionals involved and the time it took to complete tasks related to medication reconciliation at admission and discharge in three different hospital units. The results demonstrate that between one and three different health care professionals from two different disciplines, including medicine and pharmacy, were involved in the process at admission and/or discharge. There was considerable variation in terms of subtasks performed between and within units. Tasks independent of direct patient interaction, more specifically, reconciliation and documentation prior to and after meeting the patient, took more than twice the mean time required to complete tasks requiring direct patient interaction, such as discussion with patient. A better understanding of the admission reconciliation process in general surgery is needed. Standardization and the use of health informatics tools could potentially improve efficiency, reduce time-consumption and increase institutional ability to implement the process.

Hubby shot this of our home this morning. ;DThere are those that just see it as a DAY OFF, the opportunity for camping or whatever they DO with a 3 day weekend... Some only see it as a time to remember FALLEN soldiers... Some reflect on loved ones that are no longer with us... So can I take the soldier one a step further to revere all the servicemen who have ever served my country honorably, in essence protecting MY FREEDOM, rights and way of life! I feel that it's OK to do something FUN with your family and friends, but there should be sometime you put aside to reflect... AND a soldier shouldn't have to have LOST their LIFE to be honored. When they signed that contract, they AGREED to protect even IF it cost their LIFE. So they should be honored regardless for their willingness.With these minor adjustments, is OK for me to check "All of the Above"?
My husband, father, grandfather, and many brothers-in-law have served our country with honor! My grandfather, father, and many brothers-in-law are no longer with us.
I choose to also reflect how GRATEFUL I AM that I HAVE my husband; who is my HERO, solid ground, TRUE NORTH... Thank you, GOD, for the blessing that IS my BETTER HALF!!
I also reflect on loved ones I've lost in addition to the ones above: ALL of my grandparents, as well as hubby's parents (and obviously their siblings and ancestors...), my uncle, hubby's first wife's parents were dear (& I can't help but reflect some on her, having left this world too soon of cancer at only 48... although I never met her in person...), several friends, some beloved pets (YES!! THEY DO BELONG HERE... * ;p *), and a precious grand-daughter. *sniff*
I pray you all have wonderful and love filled memories... and a safe day having FUN with your friends and family! (((HUGS)))

How We SurviveMature
Antoine slowly rose up from his nook and hid his blanket, first in an equally old green paper bag, then into a disused manhole by the street. Antoine didn't understand the attraction of Place D. It was in a smelly backstreet away from the yellow street lights. But every night, posh cars parked up and down the street and their passengers disappeared into the club till the wee hours of the morning. Antoine knew some of them, not by name but by the cars they drove.
Toyota always had three girls in his company when he arrived, hardly ever the same ones, but he always left at around two and he always left alone. By then the three would have left earlier with other men. Mercedes One seemed particularly fond of the Toyota's girls as he always left with one. Prado must just really like dancing because he never staggered drunkenly out of the place and neither did he leave with company. Mercedes Two always got thrown out when he came. He was a boisterous drunk who once even got in a fight with Lexus, another boisterous drunk and they both ended up having the daylights beaten out of them by the bouncers.
Antoine liked BMW. BMW was kind to him, sometimes even buying him a plate of something and bringing it out to him. He had noticed BMW because that was the same car his father had driven. Not that he had a shred of respect left for his father; the car just reminded Antoine of a better time in his life. He had meekly offered to watch the car for the patron just to feel like he had his old life back. BMW had let him, and given him a tip for his "troubles", as if Antoine had better places to be. The symbiosis suited them both just fine.
Antoine walked across the street to Place D, but noticed BMW wasn't there that day. None of the other patrons let him near their cars so he hardly bothered asking to watch them. He drifted to the dim doorway, with the glowing red staircase ascending to the club partly visible from the street. He stood in the doorway and let the heat from inside the club wash over him. The smell of beer and perspiration from the club coupled with the smell of urine and sewage from the street notwithstanding, Antoine wanted to stand there all night.
A shadow fell across the stairwell and Antoine almost ran, thinking it was the bouncers coming down. Before he could, however, a shapely pair of legs in high heels and a short skirt stumbled down to the landing as if pushed. It was one of Toyota's girls, but Antoine didn't remember her coming in the car. Toyota was with her in a jiffy.
"What's wrong with you? I'm not working tonight!" She said, arms akimbo in a defiant stance.

Project Number: 3094-32000-038-32-S
Project Type: Non-Assistance Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Oct 1, 2013
End Date: Sep 30, 2018
The New World screwworm, Cochliomyia hominivorax, was eradicated from North America through a multi-national program led by USDA. The sterile insect techniques developed by ARS scientists were the keystone in the eradication program; the eradication status of North America is maintained by the USDA-APHIS Screwworm Eradication Program working in conjunction with counterparts in Panama. The Screwworm Production Facility in Pacora, Panama, is producing flies to maintain the barrier zone at the Panama-Columbia border. To pursue opportunities at optimizing Pacora's production capacity, research is ongoing to develop a female conditional-lethal transgenic strain of C. hominivorax. In this project, the recombinant vectors and necessary protocols to facilitate the transformation of C. hominivorax have been developed through collaboration between ARS and North Carolina State University and transferred to Pacora for application in C. hominivorax. Rearing, especially rearing at mass production levels, the putative genetic sexing lines require collaboration between ARS and the Technical Direction of COPEG (Panama – U.S. Commission for Eradication and Prevention of Screwworms). Successful implementation of the genetic sexing line, through these collaborations, will greatly optimize the production capacity, with concurrent capacity for large cost reductions, of the Program to Eradicate Screwworms.
The project to develop genetic sexing in screwworms has advanced to the stage where evaluations of transgenic screwworm lines into which female conditional-lethal vectors were inserted are ongoing, and will continue, in the Screwworm Eradication Program's facility at Pacora, Panama. This agreement will not only fund this ongoing, stochastic effort but also will be used to develop additional, perhaps more efficient, vector systems (in facility at North Carolina State University) as a contingency in case the current vectors do not meet the Program's needs. Transgenic strains will be reared under laboratory conditions, with ARS transferring information to Technical Direction, for several generations to evaluate the quality of resultant genetic sexing line(s) as they are developed. Then, in collaboration with Technical Direction, rearing parameters will be optimized relative to levels of tetracycline used in the 'colony' replacement larval pans, optimum temperature to maintain the larval media (both for flies intended for sterile, mass release and those for colony replacement), evaluation of the potential to develop a 'filter rearing' system, and consideration of requirements for handling waste (particularly larval diet containing tetracycline).

Doeppensehmidt FUNERAL HOME New Braunfels (830) 625-3434 AUSTIN (AP) — Immigration, school vouchers and harsher punishments for sex offenders are among a buff et of hot-but ton issues awaiting Texas lawmakers when a new legislative session starts Tuesday. Then there are tile complex tasks of balancing the budget, dealing with rising property appraisals and possibly revising the business tax enacted during a special legislative session last year to help fund schools. Add in some rough and tumble political gamesmanship like that playing out in the race for speaker of the Texas I louse of Representatives and it could make for a long and unpredictable five months in Austin. The results of the speakers race and the attitude of lawmakers after its over could determine the session's success. Much will depend on whether Democrats and Republicans — not to mention moderates and hard-liners within dach party — can get along. "It's going to take legislators willing to put partisanship and divisiveness aside to work for the greater good of this state," said Robert Black, spokesman for Republican Gov. Rick Perry. The fireworks could begin when tile biennial session starts on Tuesday. That 's wtien I louse members will choose a speaker, who can control tile destiny of most I louse proposals. Republican Tom Craddick of Midland has held the job since 2003 and lias been criticized as being dictatorial and heavy-handed. Two fellow Republicans — Rep. Brian McCall of Plano and Rep. Jim Pitts of Waxahachie — announced plans in late December to challenge him. McCall on Thursday threw Iris support behind Pitts, a former Craddick ally. Mondays services ■ I Ielen A.

Former HUD officials wife to run for council Group gets $375 million contract SANANTONIO (AP)—The wife of former Clinton administration official I lenry Cisneros has decided to run for a San Antonio city council seat. Mary Alice Cisneros will officially announce her candidacy at the couple's home Saturday, but she said Friday that with the couple's youngest son off to college, the time is finally right for her to seek a municipal office. " Fbe needs are still here," said Mary Alice Cisneros, 57. "My husband served a number of years in public service so I'm used to being out in the forefront." The seat she is seeking May 12 was held by her husband nearly three decades ago. Being married to a long-time politician "comes with a great deal of wisdom," she said. I lenry Cisneros was mayor here during the 1980s and later served four years as the secretary of the Department of I lousing and Urban Development. He left that office "My husband served a number of years in public service so I'm used to being out in the forefront." — Mary Alice Cisneros running for a San Antonio city council seat under investigation by an independent counsel into lies he told the FBI about support payments to a former mistress. Ile pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor in that case in 1999. The couple moved back to San Antonio in 2000. SUGAR LAND (AP) — A Texas-based nonprofit consortium has been awarded a $375 million contract to manage research and technology for natural gas production and oil exploration and the development of new energy sources, officials announced Saturday. The Research Partnership to Secure Energy for America will award contracts to universities, research institutions, national laboratories and industry partners. The 10-year contract was awarded to the research partnership by the U.S. Department of Energy. The group is based in the I Ralston suburb of Sugar Land.

Brrr' & Donald Bettfonl ADDITION BV SUBTRACTION The "wisdom" teeth, or third molars, are the ones that come in at the very hack of the mouth usually between ages 17 and 24. Our ancestors had greater need for third molars, due to their more primitive diets. And while some patients may automatically assume that these teeth are largely supertluous, that is not necessarily the ease. If you have sufficient room in your mouth to accommodate wisdom teeth and they erupt properly, they may remain. However, if there is not enough room for them and/or they become impacted (unerupted), it is generally recommended that they he extracted. This helps avoid disruption of adjacent teeth and the potential of infection associated with a partially erupted tooth. Properly diagnosed, designed, and custom fabricated mouthguards are essential in the prevention of athletic oral/facial injuries. Talk to your dentist about having a custom mouthguard made specifically for you or your children. They will fit comfortably and offer the best protection for your or their smile.

Granite • Natural River Rod * Dofomiuc Stone • Petffisvivaraa Flagstone "It s going to take legislators willing to put partisanship and divisiveness aside...." — Robert Black spokesman for Gov. Rick Perry Craddick's supporters say his strong leadership has enabled the Legislature to solve many thorny issues, such as school finance reform. And bis spokeswoman, Alexis DeLee, said he bas more than enough support to win another term. "We're still confident in our numbers," DeLee said. This year it will take at least 75 votes in the 149-member chamber to elect a new speaker. One Houston-area seat is vacant because of a death but will be filled within the next month. Once the speaker's race is settled, the only thing lawmakers are legally required to do is adopt a multibillion-dollar state budget. But even that won t be easy thanks to last year's massive property tax overhaul. To meet a court order, the legislature met in special session last spring and implemented $13.5 billion in tax cuts for 2006-07, to be made up with new state revenue. That will cause total state spending to surge, likely surpassing the spending limit lawmakers are constitutionally required to set at the start of the session. Even with an expected surplus of about $15 billion, that puts fiscally conservative Republicans in a rough spot: deciding whether to abide by the spending constraints or vote to bust the cap. Their decision will dictate how much money they have to spend on oilier programs, like health care, schools and prisons.LESSONSAGES 10-ADULT LEARN HOW TO PAINT!

Morris Claiborne, Brandon Carr, Barry Church, and J.J. Wilcox all gone.
Ouch. Claiborne looked like he was turning a corner too, not pun intended. Looks like DB is on their radar in the draft.
Spin that Webb young Davis
Cowboys traded their #2 and their #1 to move up in the 1st round in 2012 to draft Claiborne.
Cowboys defense is going to be in deep dodo..
They also lost DT McClain.
Weak to no pass rush and now no secondary.
Their offense is going to have to win the TOP by a large margin or they are going to be competing with the skins for last place in the east.
They also lost the starting right side of their OL.
After getting torched by Rodgers and the Packers in the playoffs, not one tear probably dropped in Dallas for any of those DBs....

It has defended the move saying that it shielded savers from much of the falls in the UK base rates last year, when the base rate fell by 0.25% in February and July, the Premium Bond rate only passed on a total of a 0.25% cut.
However, NS&I will delay the rise until June. It says it is contractually obliged by Government legislation to give three months warning of changes to the rate, although a spokeswoman told This Is Money the system was ?not ideal' and that it might be reviewed.
The delay in the increase will cost customers an estimated £18m, although they would have also felt the benefit of delays in passing on falling rates from 2000 to 2003.
NS&I raised the maximum investment threshold from £20,000 to £30,000 last May, sparking a boom in Premium Bond sales. The amount invested in 2003 was around £7.5bn – nearly double sales in 2002. A total of £23bn is now invested in the bonds.
The good news is that the odds of each bond winning a prize will fall from 30,000-1 to 27,500-1 when the prize fund rises in June. It means that someone with the maximum investment in Premium Bonds of £30,000 could, with average luck, can expect to win 13 rather than 12 tax-free prizes a year.
Because bond prizes are paid tax free, the 2.6% rate will be equivalent to 3.25% interest for basic rate taxpayers and 4.33% for those in the higher band.
Savings rates on NS&I accounts will rise by between 0.1% and 0.25%. But the returns paid on its fixed-rate bonds will come down by 0.2% to 0.25%, following a fall in yields from Government bonds or gilts.
Rates on the recently-launched Easy Access Savings Account will rise by the full quarter percentage point to between 1.25% and 3.8% depending on the amount saved.
Rates on the Ordinary Account, which is held by 13m people, will rise by only 0.1% to a paltry 0.35%. NS&I is writing to customers, offering the chance to switch to the new Easy Access Savings Account. It says the account is now closed to new customers and that five million people have less than a pound on deposit in any case.

I came to this conclusion recently while passing through Customs and Immigration at Logan Airport in Boston. As I approached the last immigration official, he said to me: "Any fruit or vegetables?"
I considered for a moment. "Sure, why not," I said. "I'll have four pounds of potatoes and some mangoes if they're fresh."
Instantly, I could see that I had misjudged my audience and that this was not a man who ached for banter. He looked at me with one of those slow, dark, cerebrally challenged expressions that you never want to see in a uniformed official, but especially in a US Customs and Immigration officer because, believe me, these people have powers you really do not want to put to the test. If I just mention the words "strip search" and "rubber gloves" I think you will latch on to my meaning. When I say they have the legal right to interrupt your passage I mean it in every possible sense.
Luckily, this man appeared to conclude that I was just incredibly thick. "Sir," he enquired more specifically, "are you carrying any items of a fruit or vegetable nature?"
"No, sir, I am not," I answered at once and fed him the most respectful and grovelling look I believe I have ever mustered.
"Then keep moving, please," he said. I left him shaking his head. I'm sure that for the rest of his career he will be telling people about the knucklehead who thought he was a greengrocer.
So take it from me, never joke with an authority in America, and when you fill in your landing card, under the question "Have you ever been a member of the Communist party or employed irony in a public situation?", tick "No".
Irony is, of course, the key word here. Americans don't use it much. (I'm being ironic; they don't use it at all.) In most circumstances this is actually rather a nice thing. Irony is cousin to cynicism, and cynicism is not a virtuous emotion. Americans - not all of them, but a significant proportion - have no need for either one. Their approach to everyday encounters is trusting, straightforward, almost touchingly literal. They don't expect any verbal sleight of hand in conversations, so it tends to throw them when you employ it.
We have a neighbour on whom I tested this hypothesis for the first two years we were here. It began innocently enough. Soon after we moved in, he had a tree come down in his front garden. I passed his house one morning to see that he was cutting the tree into smaller pieces and loading them onto the roof of his car to take away to the tip. It was a bushy tree and the branches were hanging over the sides in an extravagant manner. "Ah, I see you're camouflaging your car," I remarked drily.
He looked at me for a moment. "No," he said emphatically. "I had a tree come down in the storm the other night and now I'm taking it away for disposal."
After that, I couldn't stop myself from making little jokes with him. The crunch, so to speak, came when I was telling him one day about some disastrous airline trip I'd had, which had left me stranded overnight in Denver.
"Who did you fly with?" he asked. "I don't know," I replied. "They were all strangers."
He looked at me with an expression that betrayed a kind of panic. "No, I meant which airline did you fly with."
It was just after this that my wife ordered me to cease making jokes with him because apparently our chats were leaving him with migraine. The easy conclusion to draw from this, and one to which even the most astute outside observers are all too often tempted, is that Americans are constitutionally incapable of getting a joke.
I have just been reading In the Land of Oz by your own Howard Jacobson, a man of intelligence and discernment, who notes in passing that "Americans don't have a sense of humour". It would be but an afternoon's work to find 30 or 40 comments in a similar vein in modern works.
I can understand the sentiment, but it is actually quite wrong. As even a moment's reflection should remind us, many of the very funniest people who have ever lived - the Marx Brothers, WC Fields, SJ Perelman, Robert Benchley, Woody Allen, Dorothy Parker, Mark Twain - were or are Americans. Moreover, and just as obviously, they could not have achieved their fame if they had not found a large and appreciative following in their own land. So it's not as if we can't generate or relish a droll jape over here. But it is certainly true that wit is not as venerated a quality here as it is in Britain. John Cleese once said: "An Englishman would rather be told he was a bad lover than that he had no sense of humour." (Which is probably just as well, all things considered.) I don't think there are many Americans who would subscribe to that view.
Humour here is like good driving skills or having a nose for wine or being able to pronounce feuilleton correctly - commendable, worthy of admiration, but not actually vital.
It isn't that there are no people with an active sense of humour in America, just that there are far fewer. When you encounter one it is a little as I imagine it must be when two Freemasons recognise each other across a crowded room.
The last time I experienced this was a few weeks ago when I arrived at our local airport and approached a cab in need of a ride home. "Are you free?" I innocently asked the driver. He looked at me with an expression I recognised at once - the look of someone who knows a good straight line when it's handed to him. "No," he said with mock sincerity, "I charge just like everyone else."
I could almost have hugged him, but that, of course, would have been taking the joke too far.

A word of caution: if you're looking to buy one, make sure the serial number is over 3000. The early genoration of this gun experienced significant problems with the mag lock and extractor pin. Beretta eliminated those problems since.
The Nano did not ride well for me in the front pocket. The butt of the grip, I thought, printed, and the rear of the slide would catch on the forward corner of my pocet opening when I drew. IWB carry was perfect, though.
Otherwise a great gun. Even better with night sights, Tallon grips and the extended mag. I would recomend this gun to friends and family.
