Ty Cobb Healthcare Selling Nursing Homes
By MJ Kneiser, WLHR Radio, Lavonia
Ty Cobb Healthcare is selling off its existing nursing home facilities in Royston, Hartwell and Comer.
In a brief press release issued last week, Ty Cobb CEO Greg Hearn announced Ty Cobb has signed a non-binding letter of intent with Community Health Services of Georgia and its affiliate Ethica Health and Retirement Communities for the sale of Brown Memorial Convalescent Center in Royston, Hartwell Healthcare Center in Hartwell, and Cobb Healthcare in Comer.
In making the announcement, Hearn said selling the skilled nursing facilities will allow Ty Cobb Healthcare to focus on the continued growth of Ty Cobb Regional Medical Center.
"Selling the skilled nursing facilities will allow TCHS to focus on the continued growth of Ty Cobb Regional Medical Center and will provide resources needed for success in the challenging hospital marketplace," Hearn said. "This sale is part of a broader plan to address the financial challenges reported in the local media last week and provide more financial stability for the new hospital."
Hearn went on to say the sale of the three nursing homes is part of a broader plan to address the financial challenges facing Ty Cobb Regional Healthcare as well as to provide more financial stability for the new hospital.
Speaking at a recent breakfast for Georgia Commissioner of Economic Development Chris Carr, Hearn said the new Ty Cobb Regional Medical Center, which opened in July 2012, is not as profitable as had been projected.
Hearn reportedly said that in 2013 the hospital wrote off $15-million in bad debt from indigent and uninsured patients, and revealed he was actively marketing the nursing homes.
Hearn also said Ty Cobb is actively looking to partner with a larger hospital, but denies rumors the hospital is for sale.
Community Healthcare Services of Georgia is the state's largest non-profit, long-term care healthcare system.
Hearn said the company offers residential living services, adult daycare and a host of other medical support services.
"We have been very impressed with Community Health Services' commitment to quality long term care and to the employees, residents and communities they serve. We are convinced that CHS brings the experience, resources and vision needed to continue the quality care our residents have come to expect," said Hearn.
The anticipated transaction does not include the sale of TCHS's assisted-living facility, The Gables at CobbVillage in Royston.
Hearn said they expect the sale of the three nursing homes to be finalized in the first or second quarter of this year.

ALAN PARDEW has revealed he will not be copying Harry Redknapp's policy of rescuing players from the scrapheap at West Ham.
Pardew is a long-time admirer of the man who has given him advice and assistance during his managerial career.
But, speaking ahead of West Ham's Boxing Day clash with Redknapp's Portsmouth side, Pardew revealed he will be taking a different approach to his recruitment policy.
The Hammers boss said: "I think my policy is the opposite to that, although Teddy Sheringham is the exception.
"I think it is dangerous to say that you only sign one type of player but mostly the players I sign are younger and I look for that hunger.
"But if I see that in a senior player, as in Teddy or our keeper Roy Carroll, who is 28, then as long as the hunger is burning, as long as they are good enough, I am attracted to them."
Pardew has turned the Hammers into European contenders with a young team that includes England Under-21 captain Nigel Reo-Coker, Israeli playmaker Yossi Benayoun and striker Bobby Zamora.
Redknapp characterised his time at Upton Park by getting the best out of players that other managers had dismissed as being past their best.
As a result, stars such as Paolo di Canio, Stuart Pearce, Neil Ruddock, Trevor Sinclair and Ian Wright were all cult figures at the club.
Sinclair went on to play for England even though other bosses warned Redknapp that the midfielder had "the fattest backside in the First Division".
Redknapp has again been working his magic at Portsmouth, having rejuvenated the careers of striker Svetoslav Todorov, defender Arjan De Zeeuw - now at high-flying Wigan - Shaka Hislop and Teddy Sheringham, both at West Ham.
Pardew is well aware of the high esteem in which Redknapp was held at West Ham.
Indeed, the Redknapp reign is considered one of the brightest in the club's history. He led West Ham to fifth in the Premiership and back into Europe for the first time in almost 20 years.
But Pardew is determined to eclipse that achievement and bring the glory days of Ron Greenwood and John Lyall back to Upton Park.
He intends to start by bringing in the players and pushing for the form that will snatch UEFA Cup football at the end of the season.
He added: "I have come here to win things. That is what I intend to do, and as soon as possible. We have got ourselves in a great position and we should aim high. If we get three points at Portsmouth we are closer to the teams in and around Europe. That is where we want to look.
"We don't want to look below otherwise negativity and doubt starts to bed in. I don't want that. We have had our success by setting our goals high and trying to achieve them.
"Harry's era at West Ham was great. He is fondly remembered and I have genuine respect for the guy.
"He will do a good job there at Portsmouth, but it is my turn at West Ham now and hopefully we will go there and get the result."
Former West Ham star Di Canio, now at Lazio, is to appeal against a ban and fine following his now infamous straightarm salute after an Italian league match.
Claiming his gesture had been misunderstood, Di Canio said: "I am a fascist, not a racist."

Wootalyzer's Pricing Post! - The price of today's woot item is saved here for future reference------------------------------------------------------------Turtle Beach Ear Force X31 Wireless Headset for Xbox 360$49.99 + $5 ShippingCondition: Refurbished*DISCLAIMER* Wootalyzer! is in no way affiliated with Woot!, and this post may not always be here!
Will this work on a PC?
Cozy earmuffs to go along with your Monkey snuggie!!
You have no idea how close I just came to clicking the gold button. Alas, for Xbox and not PC.
Less XBox 360, more PS3. Thanks.
Excellent for playing on your Xbox, or pretending to be an air traffic controller.
Almost same model (X41) November 7 for $79.99 if you want to compare comments to the $49.99 X31 today:
Will this work for PS3 as well?
My son has these for his Xbox and loves them. Turtle Beach is a great product. With these he can hear people coming from all directions in the game.
loudwhisper wrote:Will this work on a PC?
I would imagine you would need some sort of splitter that would divide the 1.8 mm jack into a 3.5 mm jack/headphone jack... I dont even know if this exists...
The only way i could see this being possible is if you're gaming with a Xbox 360 PC controller...
If I remember correctly from the last time this was Woot!ed, a commenter said that this can work with PC but you needs some modifications for it.
But I'm probably wrong.
Hey ese, I'm pretty sure you need some adapters to make it work, and it proves to be more trouble than it's worth. You probably also need some software shenanigans to go along with it.
I'm basing this assessment on the last pair of Xbox headphones I saw on Woot! not my own knowledge, so I could be wrong.
This looks like it would be all the rage with air traffic controllers.
Here is a guide on how to use xbox360 headsets on ps3.
It looks like way too much work for me though
To hear the sound,all you need is a 3.5 mm to 3.5 mm cable. I use the cable that was originally from my desktop to my speakers when I want the sound on my head.
If you meant using the mic... That's another story. But I have a workaround for that as well.
These are pretty good headphones. I've had a set of these over a year. Love 'em.

According to Turtle Beach's website, the chat will work with an adapter, but not the actual game sounds.
But will it work on a mac?

They have a video on their Youtube that shows the cable needed to connect to PS3/PC
Turtle Beach says you'll need an adapter to make this thing work with PS3; what an amazing coincidence, that they just happen to sell one!
Product website: includes FAQ, reviews, and $69.99 there.
I'd totally woot this if it could easily be adapted for PC use. *sadface*
To use the mic on the PC you either need an adapter or any type of WIRED Xbox controller (I use an old Guitar Hero guitar, lol).
Playing first person shooter games is so much better with a headset like this. You can hear footsteps and other sounds that I could not hear before when using my surround sound system. I highly recommend Turtle Beach products.

Thanks for the help, To be honest I'm too drunk to be a helpful wooter right now and should be asleep anyways.... also, my Xbox RROD so I threw it out my window and my brother is the PS3 Gamer anyways...
Edit: Over the limit for driving and still getting quality posts. Ponies yeah!!

If you have the DSS converter, it should hook up to PS3 for incoming audio I think. I primarily use my DX11 set for my PS3.
To use the mic you just need a mic/usb adapter. You can find them on Amazon for a couple bucks a pop typically.
Will this work with my new Kindle Fire?
My husband and I play split screen Halo... it appears I can buy two and run them both , but does anyone happen to know if we do that, will we be able to hear each other through the headsets?
Can you use these just for chat while still having your audio go through the tv or sound system?
djenkins1982 wrote:Less XBox 360, more PS3. Thanks.
You have it backwards.. More Xbox 360 and NO PS3 ever !! The PS3 network is so BAD compared to xbox... I would so much rather pay for my online gaming and have a great multiplayer experience than to have a crappy free ps3 network to play on These are a must have for any gamer .. They provide great surround sound .. so you can hear all those footsteps coming up behind you. Cant go wrong with turtlebeach they are the best IMO and this is a great price
There Here On Ebay for $52.99 Manufacturer refurbished
These are ten dollars less than a new X11. The X11 are the wired version of the same headphones.
This may appear to be a good deal but BEWARE, they drain batteries like mad. I went back to my X11's because I was tired of dead batteries all the time. Unless you sit really far away from your tv (no gamer does) wired is the better option
MillSkot wrote:My husband and I play split screen Halo... it appears I can buy two and run them both , but does anyone happen to know if we do that, will we be able to hear each other through the headsets?
IIRC there is an annoying echo you get from hearing the person 20 ft away from you and then hearing them again through your headset. Though, I'd imagine with a killer Closed-headset like this there would be little to no echo...
I wouldn't know though, I'm not speaking from personal experience with these headsets... Just talking from a point of view of using closed/open headphones while listening to music.
Alright, this is way off topic but please indulge me. This is my first post, I have been shopping and cheering woot onwards how for several years but have never posted a comment. So what is finally making me say something?
I just wanted y'all to know how very proud I am of my mother. She bought her first woot two days ago and also purchased yesterday's woot.
Now this would no big deal, I guess.. until I think of the fact that my mother is a 76 year old oriental woman. Born just before WWII in the foothills of Medan, Indonesia, she would tell us stories of running with her family escaping the Japanese and the tricks of foraging for food in her childhood.
I bought her her first computer in the late 90s. She could never really get the hang of it. Then came the iPad. She is now the queen of emails (y'all know what I mean.. :-). She evens trades stock and plays the market using her iPad.
And now, she has gained enough confidence to actually purchase something using her Credit Card. And she did all this without me. She only told me after the fact!.
Mom, I'm proud of you!
I have the x31 and now the x41 from a few weeks ago on woot.
The x31 has been great for me.. excellent sound, great bass (better than the x41, actually) and great isolation. (the wife can't hear the game, which makes her happier lol)
With that said - i feel much more immersion with the x41's than the x31's in an a to b comparison. This is to be expected, as the x31's are stereo, and the x41's are surround.
I happily paid 100.00 for my x31's a couple of years ago, after having used a pair belonging to a friend. half the price is a steal. If you missed out on the x41 but still need something - get these! Don't bother with the wired sets - the wires get tangled, trip you up and are a general nuisance.
**edit - re: batteries - i found the battery life to be acceptable. They tended to last about as long as the controller. I used eneloops in both (i've relegated all my eneloops to things like this after discovering NiZN batts - but thats for another post). with controller vibration on, and the volume turned decently high, i would get about 10 hours of play (split over a few days, obviously) out of each. set up my charging station discretely near the xbox, and when one would die (whichever, first) i got in the habit of replacing both, since they were so well matched.
Guy with batt problems - possible you were leaving these on after game play? I notice they took a while to self-power down...

Maybe a Mac? I guess with an external. keyboard and stuff the iPad is probably a pretty capable machine for basic stuff like that... Just seems like an upgrade may be in order if she's gotten hip to the scene.
Then again, if it ain't broke..
(break it.)
Okay, so I want to use these on my PC. I have an Xbox 360 Wireless controller and the PC adapter for it. Will I be able to run the headset through the 360 controller to use it on my PC? Will it work as long as the controller is on even if I am not using? Otherwise, this isn't much use to me. I really want to get these though :D
We just bought a wired turtle beach for PC gaming. It has all the options for console or PC play so these probably do as well. I'm thinking about giving the other pair to my son if these will work on PC also.
The brand is awesome, they've had bad reviews in past with the x11, but x12 are much better quality. They have wonderful bass and well I've just talked myself into buying another woot. Lolz!!
These are awesome. You can hear everything around....even bugs flying by. Directional hearing is awesome too
if your tv has an optical output then it will work on ps3 or bluray as well. there are youtube videos on this. if you dont have an optical output then you might be out of luck. i dont have it so i had to order the audio adapter for my xbox. im pretty sure there are adapters for ps3 and such as well. just need those red white output. im not guaranteeing anything! it was said on a youtube video!

Doc Goyne
Your missing out on some cool charts...
Tom Goyne a.k.a. trgoyne
Our Golfer of the Week Tom Goyne knows time management. He runs his own blog, plays golf a couple times a week and still has time to be a doctor. Actually, that could explain the 40 minute wait when I'm perfectly on time... hmmm.
How old are you and what's your occupation?
I'm a doctor of audiology (like an optometrist, but for your ears) and rapidly approaching 34.
When did you start playing golf and what's your handicap?
To be honest, I don't remember not playing. My USGA index is 5.9.
How often do you play?
At least one 18-hole round on the weekend and then one or two 9-hole rounds or practice sessions during the week.
Tell me about a great shot you've made.
The first thing that comes to mind is when I chipped in right in front of a clinic that had just been practicing that very shot. I bragged way too much about it here: Full Story
What is your best golf memory?
Probably when I won my native county's junior amateur championship. It was very gratifying because I set it as a goal early in the summer, practiced hard, and somehow when the smoke cleared, I came out on top. Another good one is when my father and I met in the match-play finals of our club championship (he beat me pretty good).
What is your "home" course?
Edgmont Country Club, near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It borders a state park, very scenic with a clubhouse that dates to the 1700's. Par 70.
What ball do you play?
Same as everyone else, the Titleist ProV1.
Mizuno driver, Hogan Apex Plus irons, Vokey wedges, and whatever putter looks right behind the ball at the time.
Favorite pro?
I'm partial to Geoff Ogilvy. He gives a very good interview.
Favorite course you've played?
Coincidentally, Pine Needles, site of this week's US Women's Open.
Dream course you've yet to play?
I'd love to play Merion C.C., which is just a minute or two up the road.
Best round ever- and what course?
I grew up at a country club that was an old par 66 and in the semifinals of the club championship, I had about seven threes in a row, shot 66 and won the match.
What is one aspect of your golf game you would like to improve on in the next year?
Even though I'm not as straight as I probably should be with a driver, I'd like to get my chipping and putting a bit more tuned in.
Tell me a story.
I'm so obsessed with this game it's hard to narrow it down to just one, so I'll tell two. First, I had a great time a few weeks ago at the U.S. Open on Sunday with my father and brother, just a great experience and a wonderful day. The other story happened recently as well: I was playing with this older gentleman who is a great guy but swears like a sailor. He marks his ball with a "67", which was the number he wore to play football. One time, someone asked him if that was the lowest score he ever shot and his reply was a stream of profanities that ended in, "You just played with me for four @$%& holes, do you think I've ever shot a 67?!?"

'Painful wait' for surgery
Is NZ's health care system good enough?Share your stories, photos and videos.
Relevant offers
Surgeons and senior hospital staff have pleaded with the Waikato District Health board to approve a fifth acute operating theatre.
Waikato Hospital Theatre and Preoperative Services clinical leader Dr Cam Buchanan said the move would be a "no brainer", particularly in relation to the hundreds of patients desperately waiting for orthopaedic surgery.
"The message I want you to hear is that the [number of patients needing surgery] is inadequate, the fact you don't have the fifth acute theatre ultimately means patients suffer and we lurch between just managing to managing chaos," he told the health board.
A hospital report presented to the board last month shows 1580 people are waiting for orthopaedic surgery in Waikato - 170 of them have waited longer than five months.
Buchanan wanted the board to not underestimate the importance of making the patients experience quality. "The experience of the patient journey has to be up there with the quality of the actual surgery. It comes down to empathy and appointing the right people. The cold face of medicine is [a] human face."
The report outlined targets including a change to the reporting methods used to ensure patient safety.
The new surgical safety checklist released by the World Health Organisation had proved a challenge for Waikato surgeons and nurses with figures as low as 42.5 per cent in April . But a focus to improve that figure had seen it rise to 65 per cent in just two months.
Buchanan said making patients wait in pain was detrimental to them, the clinical staff and ultimately to the hospital governance.
Waikato Hospital group manager Mark Spittal urged the board to approve the proposal, which he said would better utilise the redeveloped Meade Clinical Centre and address the increased demand.
After a presentation from Waikato Hospital assistant group manager Kevin Harris, the board looked at the new waiting rooms, preoperative wards and operation theatres.
Buchanan showed the board what a typical patient's journey from before, during and after surgery might look like.
However, discussions after the tour by the board still remained focused on whether a fifth acute operating theatre would be economically viable.
The board appeared sympathetic to the idea of creating another theatre but reluctant because of staffing concerns.
Buchanan said staff were available but it could take about 12 months to appoint the "right person".
The proposal will be discussed when the board meets again on August 13.

|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
The Patriots seem to just get better as the weeks go by, but they did have a tough time with the 2-4 St. Louis Rams. The Rams were coming off a huge win against the Cowboys, and looked poised for a third straight win. It was a close game throughout, and the Rams were driving at the end of the fourth quarter down 23-16 when QB Marc Bulger tossed an interception to Deltha O'Neal.
Matt Cassel threw two interceptions (though both were not his fault) and a touchdown as part of his career-high 267 passing yards. Kevin Faulk led the Pats with 60 yards rushing on 13 carries and had the go-ahead touchdown catch late in the fourth quarter. BenJarvus Green-Ellis scored the other touchdown for the Patriots, on a two-yard run in the first quarter.
Bulger threw for 301 yards and a long touchdown to Donnie Avery in the first half, but for the most part he was held in check. The Pats played their classic bend-but-don't-break defense, and it was good enough for the victory. More to come from Jeff's Verdict.

The Employment Standards Act, 2000 (ESA) provides the minimum standards for most employees working in Ontario. It sets out the rights and responsibilities of employees and employers in most Ontario workplaces.
This guide is a convenient source of information about key sections of the ESA. It is for your information and assistance only. It is not a legal document. If you need details or exact language, please refer to the ESA itself and the regulations.
The ESA covers a wide range of employment standards including: minimum requirements for employment; provisions to assist employees with family responsibilities; increased flexibility in work arrangements; and mechanisms for compliance and enforcement.
If a provision in an agreement gives an employee a greater right or benefit than a minimum employment standard under the ESA then that provision applies to the employee instead of the employment standard.
No employee can agree to waive or give up his or her rights under the ESA (for example, the right to receive overtime pay or public holiday pay). Any such agreement is null and void.
The ESA contains only some of the rules affecting work in Ontario. Other provincial and federal legislation governs issues such as workplace health and safety, human rights and labour relations. Related Ontario laws include the Occupational Health and Safety Act, the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act, 1997, the Labour Relations Act, 1995, the Pay Equity Act, and the Human Rights Code.

In psychology, projection is the act of assuming that other people see the world in the same way that you see the world.
An example of projection would be a Christian who assumes that everyone should see God in a sunset or recognize the authority of the Bible. Since it seems so natural and obvious to the Christian, she projects these feelings onto the rest of humanity.
Some of the most interesting cases of psychological projection occur cross-gender. This is particularly true in a society that strives to be gender neutral.
For men, physical beauty is the most desirable trait in a female. So an act of projection would be to assume that for women, physical attractiveness is the most desirable trait. While physical attractiveness is important to women, it is far less important to women than it is to men. So the man who puts all of his effort into his appearance is not getting the best bang for his attraction buck. But the reason he puts all this effort into his physical appearance is because of the strong illusion that's caused by psychological projection.
The same goes for sensitivity and vulnerability. Men desire gentle, sensitive, vulnerable, submissive female mates. But many men project these desirable traits and assume that women want them in men too. In fact, most women prefer men who are strong, confident and inviolable. And they perceive sensitivity as a weakness.
Finally, men love reason and truth. It is a biologically ingrained trait that most likely developed as a strategy for tracking, hunting and killing fat and protein rich sources of meat. The female brain did not have the same selection pressures and thus their brain is not as weighted towards logic and truth (this manifests itself in the fact that many women feel threatened by debate, whereas men find debate to be one of the highest pleasures: the brain rewarding them for an evolutionarily important skill). While it is true that women can be attracted to intelligence in men where it is manifested in external skills and debate with other men, most women are not attracted to the direct expression of intellect within a relationship in the form of cold, hard facts. Rather, they are more attracted to things like cocky humor. Attraction is about feelings: for women, truth and logic create cold feelings, sarcasm and cocky humor are hot.
Let's reverse the genders now. For most women, the most desirable trait in men is high social value. High social value in men is achieved in many different ways: careers, unique skills, wealth, success, etc. Many women are attracted to older men precisely for this reason: because older men have had more time to gain high social value and, because of their life experiences and station in life, tend to present themselves as being more stable, inviolable, confident and having more access to valuable resources.
As we noted earlier for men, biologically, beauty is the trump card in attraction. The animal hind-brain of a man takes over in the presence of beauty and despite any alternative principles, he is largely rendered incapable of discretion. Despite this fact, many women project onto men what they themselves value (high social value, etc.). So women will often seek to impress men by developing their social value in the form of skill acquisition (learning an instrument), career advancement, and development of intellect. Projection in women tends to hit a peak as youthful beauty starts to decline. It is around this time that many women will seek to earn a new college degree and move up the career ladder.
These are just a few examples of projection between the genders as it relates to attraction. However, there are hundreds of other cases ranging from expectations for how time is spent, to responsibilities around the house, to expressions of love (one person might feel like he is expressing love, but the expression of love is not being perceived because the other person perceives love in different forms than the way it is being expressed).

Saw IV
In keeping with the series' preference for the literal over the mythic, Saw IV offers no miraculous, Michael Myers-style resurrection for torture artiste John "Jigsaw" Kramer (Tobin Bell), who went out with a bang at the end of Saw III and makes his first appearance here as the toe-tagged specimen in an autopsy scene so gruesomely detailed it could be used as a med-school primer. But if Jigsaw is gone, he's hardly forgotten: Soon someone is up to Kramer's old tricks, which this time means subjecting SWAT team commander Rigg (Lyriq Bent, a series regular since Saw II, which might make him the longest-surviving black character in horror-movie history) to the obligatory gauntlet of damned-if-you-do/don't puzzle boxes and Old Testament moralizing. But like the movie's mysterious Jigsaw doppelganger, Saw IV is itself a poor substitute for the original (or even the first two sequels), from the ho-hum deathtraps that seem designed by Rube Goldberg's less prodigal younger brother to the "twist" ending surprising only in its Agatha Christie obviousness. Much more gripping are the handful of flashback scenes that bring Kramer (and, in turn, the excellent Bell) back from the grave and offer new insight into the making of the movies' most insidiously appealing quasi-madman since Hannibal Lecter. May I propose a full-tilt prequel: Jigsaw Rising?

In London recently, a colourful protest was held outside a so-called 'gay cure' conference held by a fundamentalist church. One hundred protestors showed up. In New Zealand however, the 'ex-gay' lobby has almost completely ceased to exist. Why?
About twenty years ago, there used to be 'ex-gay' groups in Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland. Then, Rock of Life Ministries (ChCh) closed down after a short time, and Noel Mosen (Lion of Judah Ministries) converted to Catholicism and may have ended up a cook somewhere other than his native Wellington. Even in Palmerston North, an exgay residential course was forced to close down through lack of attendance, which means that Auckland's Exodus houses the only 'exgay' outfit in New Zealand. It has no newsletter, no website, and apparently restricts itself to elderly conservative religious gay men who experience sexual identity crises. Unfortunately, the gay commercial scene is youth-oriented, and we need dedicated older gay men's groups, otherwise those men will stay in such unhealthy environments.
Granted, some exgay individuals keep a low profile here, but pop up at exgay conferences overseas. Briar and Neil Whitehead materialise at sporadic parliamentary submissions but still live in the Hutt, while Sy Rogers and family live on the Kapiti Coast. Rogers is a fundie pop musician, apparently, which occupies more of his time than exxing out, these days.
In effect, the exgay movement has failed largely because the New Zealand Christian Right has remained stubbornly unable or unwilling to develop counselling or psychotherapeutic skills. Most mainstream New Zealanders accept that sexual orientation constitutes a durable source of social identity and cannot easily be changed. These organisations have dwindled in the face of growing lesbian and gay community organisation, assertion and social inclusion, leading to exgay 'enclavism,' largely restricted to individuals who have lived most of their lives in fundamentalist social networks, isolated from mainstream New Zealand society.
In the case of Exodus, the ever-present New Zealand Christian Right curse of mortality is not on its side, either. Eventually, mortality and infirmity will cause the closure of the final New Zealand 'exgay' outpost, probably sooner rather than later.

Zucchini Bread
Recipes for zucchini bread are as prolific as the little green vegetable itself. I swear for every million zucchini picked each year, there have to be at least a million recipes to make zucchini bread floating around.
But this one is the best. I promise you. It is light, not dense and glumpy. It is moist, not oily and sludgy. It is perfecty flavorful, not bland or overly spiced.
Can you tell I've had some bad zucchini bread in my day (mostly made from my own kitchen)?
I've been making this recipe a few years and figure it is high time to highlight the simple, delicious bread here. It really is the most tender, most perfect zucchini bread.
And, as you'll notice from the pictures, if you want to take it completely over the top, slather a little cream cheese on a slice and I swear, you'll think you've gone to zucchini bread heaven.
One Year Ago: Butter and Garlic Shrimp Penne
Two Years Ago: Apple Cider Pudding Cake
The Best Zucchini Bread
- 1 pound zucchini (you'll end up with about 1 to 1 1/2 cups of zucchini once it has been shredded and wrung through a towel to rid of excess liquid)
- 2 cups flour (see note)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon allspice
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup plain yogurt (not fat-free)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice or sour cream
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
- Adjust an oven rack to middle position and preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Generously coat a 9-inch by 5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray (I use Baker's Joy spray with flour for a great, easy release – you may want to grease and flour just to be safe).
- Chop the ends off the zucchini (just 1/4-inch off each end) and finely shred the zucchini, peel and all. Place the shredded zucchini in a clean kitchen towel, wrap the towel, and wring the ends (like a an old-fashioned candy wrapper) to squeeze out all the excess water. You should have about 1 to 1 1/2 cups of dry zucchini. Set the zucchini aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, allspice, and salt. In a smaller bowl, whisk the sugar, yogurt, eggs, lemon juice or sour cream, and butter until combined.
- Gently fold the yogurt mixture and zucchini into the flour mixture, using a rubber spatula to fold the ingredients together until just combined. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan.
- Bake until golden brown and a thin knife or skewer inserted in the center comes out with a few crumbs attached, 45-55 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes then turn out into wire rack to cool for at least 1 hour. Store well-covered for up to three days.
The recipe calls for a 9-inch by 5-inch sized loaf pan but I've also made this successfully in an 8 1/2-inch by 4 1/2-inch loaf pan – the loaf doesn't dome as well as it does in the larger pan since the batter fills up the pan more, but it still bakes up deliciously. Also, if you have overly large zucchini, cut them in half lengthwise first, scoop out the seeds, and then shred. Finally, I am sometimes short a few ounces of zucchini and I throw in enough shredded carrots to make up the difference – delicious!
Also, I often use half to 3/4 finely ground white whole wheat flour with good results – and sometimes I get crazy and use 100% whole wheat flour (always finely ground white wheat); it is a bit more dense with 100% whole wheat flour but still nutty and hearty and delicious.

R/V Melville Handbook
Section VIII : Ship Organization
HOUSEKEEPING - Clean towels and linen are distributed at the beginning of the voyage and once a week thereafter. The cook will distribute clean linen at the announced hour. At these times bunks should be stripped and soiled linen taken to the place designated.
Bunks should be made up daily. Public heads and passageways are cleaned by the crew. The scientific party is responsible science staterooms and heads and of the laboratories. The responsibility of daily sweeping out the laboratories is assigned by the chief scientist. All laboratories and scientific party rooms should be thoroughly cleaned before departing the vessel at cruise end. Cleaning gear is available throughout the vessel in cleaning gear lockers; if you can't find it ask. Common courtesy calls for the scientific party members to pick up after themselves. Good shipmates leave their quarters or work areas cleaner than they found them.
Fresh water is a precious commodity at sea and must not be wasted. The ship carries only a 5 day supply and must rely on its desalinators to maintain this supply at sea. These desalinators cannot be operated in harbors and work at a reduced capacity when the ship is idling on station. Conservation of fresh water is therefore a must. Salt water should be used on deck when possible. "Navy" showers (i.e., rinse-soap-rinse, turning off water between times) should be practiced. Full washer loads make best use of water.
Washing machines, laundry soap, bleach, and dryers are available. They are used on a first-come-first-served basis. The only request is for users to do full loads of laundry so as to conserve fresh water. Laundry detergent is provided. A laundry sack is stationed in this area to collect soiled sheets and towels from the ship's supply. An iron is available.
The ship's sanitary system cannot handle cigar and cigarette butts, sanitary napkins, etc. Please dispose of such items properly.
Although there is no standard for dress aboard, mature judgement and decorum are expected.
MESS HALL - The mess deck has seating for 32. Since this is less seats than there are members of the crew and scientific party, personnel should not loiter during or immediately after meals. Watchstanders are customarily served first. Meal hours must be respected. Shirts and foot coverings are required at all times in the mess hall.
Meal hours at sea are:
The mess hall is cleared 45 minutes prior to and after meal hours to allow for setup and cleanup. Messing is cafeteria style. It is most important that each person bus their own dishes and clean up after themselves. When stores arrive at the ship, all hands load.
Cups and glasses disappear at sea. Therefore, everyone is assigned a coffee cup and a drinking glass, marked with their berth number. Use your own, only. If yours disappears, please look for it before asking for a replacement; there may not be one. The chief scientist should work out with the captain any special eating schedules for scientific watchstanders and station times.
SHIP'S CREW - The complement of 23 is the captain, 3 mates, radio officer, 1 Bostswain, 3 able seamen, 1 ordinary seaman, the chief engineer, 3 assistant engineers, 1 electrician, 4 oilers, 2 wipers, and 2 cooks.
The mates are the officers of the watch. The duty station for all operations, including station work, is the bridge, since fantail and other weather decks may be monitored from the bridge wings.
The assistant engineers and the electrician, if necessary, man the watch in the engine room. When winches are required for station work, a crew member will be provided to operate the winch. Call the bridge to arrange for a winch operator.
The electrician is primarily a "day-man", unless included in the engine room watch rotation.
The boatswain also is a "day-man", responsible for general ship upkeep. The able seaman on watch assists him or the officer of the watch, as required, and the A.B.'s and ordinary seaman are primarily responsible for daily cleaning of the ship.
The boatswain will operate the ship's crane (Allied or Pettibone) if requested. Otherwise, the resident technician performs this task. Smaller cranes (Alaska) are normally operated by members of the scientific party, but only after training by the resident technicians.
If assistance from any crew member is needed by the scientific party, it is recommended that such requests be routed through the officer of the watch. Requests for a winch man should always go to the bridge.
It should be kept in mind that requests for after-hours work by any of the crew are treated as overtime, and should not be placed unless urgently needed, and then through the captain or chief engineer as appropriate.

At a recent leadership conference held in Maryland, the aluminum industry took a step forward for workplace safety. We sometimes write about the serious injury and even death caused to workers due to unsafe job sites and working conditions. Many of these on the job accidents result in workers' compensation claims for the benefit of employees hurt while working.
Understandably, an injured worker impacts a company in a number of ways. Workers that are seriously hurt typically miss significant time while they are recovering from their injuries. This may have a negative impact on the ability of a company to stay competitive in the market place when key people are missing due to workplace accidents. Further, an injured worker often results in added cost for the company, which could even face fines levied by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration when safety violations are found. Finally, company morale may also be affected if there are issues of safety in the workplace that are not addressed by management in a responsible manner.
The aluminum industry is doing something about it. At the Maryland conference, a memorandum of understanding was signed to foster plant safety while also focusing on the dangers of the hazards to workers from metal dust. The Aluminum Association (AAI) and the Metal Powder Industries Federation (MPIF) signed an agreement to share information and further promote workplace safety in the industry. The intent is to provide AAI member companies with the latest safety information while also providing training and sharing important information designed to help avoid accidents.
Of course, not all accidents are preventable, and that is as true in the aluminum industry as anyplace else. When an accident does occur, those hurt on the job can typically rest assured in knowing that workers' compensation benefits apply. This important insurance coverage is provided under Maryland law and helps cover medical bills and related costs, as well as lost income for the time the worker is unable to return to the job., In those instances where someone loses his or her life in a work accident, workers' compensation death benefits provide funeral costs as well as a lost income package for the employee's dependents.

NEW CANAAN, Conn. -- New Canaan police charged a mother with two counts of risk of injury to a minor after her son fell off a scooter and fractured his skull, according to newcanaanite.com.
The 7-year-old boy who fell was not wearing a helmet while using his scooter, police said. The state Department of Children and Families became involved in the case because of previous incidents associated with the family, newcanaanite.com reported.
The mother was charged with two counts as the victim's 9-year-old brother was also outside and unattended when the fall occurred, newcanaanite.com said.

Block Heater Question
Hi All,
I recently moved up into Northern Ontario. How can you tell if your block heater is working? I plug my car in every night when it's below -15 C. Recently there's been an extreme cold snap and it seems like even plugged in the car is struggling to start. The battery is cranking but the engine seems like it takes forever to finally get going. It does however heat up within 10 minutes or so. Yesterday in -33 I gave up on trying to start it and hitched a ride to work for fear of killing the battery.
I know the block heater won't keep the coolant hot, or even warm, just wondering if anyone else in this type of climate has experience to share. Is my block heater working just for the simple fact that it even starts in this frozen hell?
I should add that my experience in this weather is that the DCT shifts weirdly and it feels like being in a car with someone who's learning how to drive stick. In the summer and fall I had no DCT issues other than some weird noises during the break in period. In this weather though the DCT is struggling.
The block heater wont heat the coolant up much at all, I was under the same impression that it wasn't working on our last cold snap (I'm in NB). But if your curious just open the hood and at the back side of the motor is where it goes in, you should be able to put your hand on it and feel that it is warm to the touch.
The aluminum block in these cars don't hold heat at all. I have found that they have a hard time keeping warm just idling with the heater on when it starts to get below -15c
It sounds like your block heater may not be working. My car never cranks that long when plugged in, and it started up right away in -19 weather (sorry baby). It does take 5 to 10 minutes for the coolant to heat up.
If you pop your engine cover off you could see/feel if it is still plugged into the block.
Your engine should be warm to touch when its plugged in and you can hear a slight 'hiss' similar to an electric tea kettle when its plugged in. Also check to make sure that where you are plugging in, actually has power..lots of times an outside plug has a tripped breaker.One more thing in northern climates...switch to a full synthetic oil and use a 0-30 or something similar. It works miracles
I just had my last oil change done at the dealership here in town and I'm assuming they used Motorcraft 5w20 but nothing was indicated on the bill. If this cold snap keeps up I'm going to try switching to full-syn.
I hate this $*#*%( weather.
Oh boy, that does not sound pleasant. Full disclosure: I have an ST with a 2.0L but I can't see that making that much of a difference.
How long are you having your car plugged in? It takes about 3 hours for the block heater to get the motor to its hottest point. And it definitely should be reading more towards the middle of your temp gauge. My block heater worked great for 3 months, then quit. Dealer installed a new one and it's been fine ever since. Sounds like you have a bad heater.
Also with those temperatures I would be running a full synthetic oil, 0W20.
Montreal here... and we're heading for a ice cold week here... I noticed recently (on very cold mornings), the car struggles in starting even if I leave it plugged it overnight. At first, I assumed it was because I was using a timer and only giving it about 2hrs of warming up before using, so now...even with an overnight charge, it struggles in starting and temp gauge takes quite a while before moving up.
I will pop the hood to see if I feel anything warm... otherwise, off to the dealer.
This is my first car without a starter in over 10yrs and I regret not having one in these friggin cold winter days!

The XOXO conference of 2014 was literally life changing for me. It was my first visit to Portland and it was what convinced me to want to move here, which we've now done. Dan Benjamin of the 5by5 podcasting network interviewed a bunch of attendees (including me, randomly) and I joked to my wife about the interviews just being 50 people saying the conference was inspirational in different ways. That was no different this year, with the exception of this year being kind of the most inspirational bummer I've ever seen (in the best way). Rather than try to put the whole 3 day whirlwind into a narrative, I'm going to get on the journalistic bandwagon of recent years: the list.
Some things that happened to me at XOXO 2015
- I briefly met Merlin Mann, a personal hero. I didn't get to explain how important his work has been to me because I wanted to tell him his backpack was left alone after we vacated the table he left it near, but I was helpful so that's good.
- I didn't want to bug Kathy Sierra about how influential and important her work has been also but her talk was magnificent.
- I overheard a guy saying he was glad he didn't have much student loan debt, only $70,000. Wow.
- My kids talked to Phil Fish (creator of the incredibly popular and awesome game Fez) for like 10 minutes. I thought with all the crap he gets online that he might enjoy just talking to some kids who love his game and I was right. I'm thankful to him for talking to them like they were people, not dumb kids.
- I talked to a number of people about my side project, CastFu, and they were pretty excited about the idea of it. It's given me a renewed sense that this could be something that helps people.
- I got to show Andy Baio, a big Suck.com fan, and Carl Steadman, freaking co-creator of Suck, my ancient Suck.com membership card and foldout explainer thing I got a million years ago. Turns out the cards were Carl's idea and he was even the one who wrote the membership numbers on them. Turns out.
- Spent a bunch of time at the podcast meetup sitting with and talking to Jason Snell, of The Incomparable and other affiliated podcasts. He's a great guy and knows a lot about a lot of stuff. I learned a bunch.
- Also at the podcast meetup I talked to 2 great guys about Kickstarter, comedy, and geeking out about internet famous people. Good times.
- I met a ton of people on the XOXO Slack setup and thought that would mean I'd be able to talk to a bunch of people in person. For sure, I did talk to a lot of people but it was still really hard and I didn't do it as much as I should have.
- Last year I regretted not talking to Kevin Kelly, but my shyness got the better of me in that case. This year, a similar thing happened with Zoe Quinn. I couldn't figure out anything I would say that wasn't "I'm a big fan of your work and also how you have impossibly withstood this year-long monsoon of morons abusing you and wrecking your life for no reason" since I thought that would be too weird. Anyway, she's great and her talk was amazing.
- I got 2.7 billion points on Attack From Mars pinball at Ground Kontrol. You earn an extra game at 2.2B so I think that's pretty good. One of my faves.
- I'm so glad we get to expose our kids to such awesome and creative people. They were probably most excited to see the creators of Baman Piderman although we all laughed like mad people at Hello From The Magic Tavern, which we hadn't heard before.
- My wife and I met a number of people that our 10 year old son had befriended first without us, which was hilarious. He was also kind of the king of the Tinder Box indie arcade one night, including the awesome game Shitty Voltron (imagine a multiplayer QWOP). My wife and daughter also fell in love with 2 Rooms And A Boom, a fun group game.
- On the last night we had the kind of lucky experience that is kind of typical of XOXO. My wife had made a friend at a meetup and when we all started talking, we ended up being extremely similar and had a great time talking outside, which turned into dinner. It turns out her and her husband run a pretty well known internet service that we've used, and they have very similar thoughts about running their business and building cool stuff. It's hard for me to make new friends sometimes so when it happens randomly like this it's really great.
I'm sure I'll be writing more about XOXO later, after it all stews around in my head for a little while longer. If you want to read more specifics about what the speakers said there's a bunch of really good posts about that on Medium.

If you read my review of it, I bought it to cheaply train and for plinking. It has a trigger that is very close to my striker fired guns in both pull and travel. Last time out, I did some rapid fire drills on three targets. It ran flawlessly. I've always wondered how fast I'm actually shooting. This time out, I brought a camera. I was shooting on a single target at fifty feet. Next time out, I'm going to see how well I can do with my M&P .40! It's kinda practical, but definitely fun!

You want to feed more than just backs IMO. You need a balance of RMBs, muscle meat and organ meat.
Check out : http://www.rawdogranch.com
Environmental allergies are far more common than food allergies. That being said, much of the immune system is in the digestive tract, and a healthy dog is less likely to have allergy issues.
I have recently switched my itchy dog over to raw plus FEEDSentials, Shemp-Oil and Sunday Sundae, and I'm seeing some positive results. It's too soon to say her issues are fixed because they come and go, but things are looking good so far.
I have noticed a marked reduction in a dog scratching itself because of a shift in diet to raw...I'd certainly try alternatives other than prednisone first.
Be considerate of making too many changes as it will be easier to hone in on the "cure" using less variables.
Perfectly Raw Chicken backs
Hey guys Im new here and I am switching my 3 1/2 year old gsd to raw food. We've been struggling to get his so called allergies under control by trying many different kinds of kibble and giving him drugs like prednisone. I think his problems could be helped by switching to raw food. I just started today and bought the brand Perfectly Raw chicken backs. This brand seemed like a good deal.
I just want to know if feeding him this by itself is a good start and if this is a quality brand food?
Also has anyone else here experienced allergies and sore joints being cured by switching to raw food?

**Cadillac User Experience (CUE)** Discussion, Two CUE questions: in Item Specific Cadillac Discussion; 1. How do you turn the radio off? A local dealer finally got a Platinum in I could go look ...

Two CUE questions:
1. How do you turn the radio off?
A local dealer finally got a Platinum in I could go look at. Nice! I didn't drive the car since I'd already driven a Premium and I imagine except for the wheels and tires they're identical. However, when I started the car, the radio came on, and neither I nor the salesman could figure out how to turn it off. The solutions we came up with were (1) Turn the volume all the way down, and (2) Turn CUE off entirely by holding "down" the power switch until the display turned into an analog clock.
Surely there's another way.
2. Can you select a favorite via voice? For example, I sometimes drive to San Francisco and there are certain downtown parking garages I like to use. I can save the address to one of these in as a Favorite, and I believe I can even change what displays on the button (like "SF Garage"). Is there any way to select this saved destination via voice?
If your dealer could not figure out how to turn it off, you need to go to a different dealer.
Re: Two CUE questions:
Well, my dealer options here in northern Nevada are somewhat limited.
Do you know how to turn it off, what with your being a Platinum owner and all?

I don't believe you can ever truly turn Cue off, the analog clock is as close as you get. There's an option to turn off the display in settings, but still that doesn't power down Cue.

Re: Two CUE questions:
You can either tap the power button or press the hang up button on the steering wheel. Correct, that right now this is technically a mute button, but it won't mute phone conversations or voice recognition (or turn by turn if I'm not mistaken). So the mute icon is more closely like a radio off button. If your phone is streaming audio over Bluetooth, it doesn't pause the music but does mute it, which I think was considered a bug.

Re: Two CUE questions:
On my '11 SRX if you turned off the radio you turned off everything else. I would assume that the 13's are the same architecture. It must have something to do with using the radio's circuitry as part of the whole system to keep from being redundant. Or it could be designed by the same guy who did the seat memory system!
Re: Two CUE questions:
You cannot recall a Favorite directly by voice, but what you could do in this instance is to save this address to a contact in the nav system. When you have that address called up on the screen (GO button along bottom, small map shown on the right) press the Save button. This will then walk you through creating a contact in the vehicle. You can then give it whatever name you'd like. SF Garage would have to be spoken as "Ess Eff Garage" in this case. To recall it, you would press the Voice button, say "Navigation Contact", or "I need directions to a contact" or something along those lines and then it will ask you the name of the contact. After that the address will be pulled up on the display and you can tap the Go button.

Re: Two CUE questions:
Codeman, I have tried to do just that with the word HOME and the lady just will not recognize it. I have it as a button on the favorites and it is on my phone also, including my address, but she just says "Pardon" over and over again. What am I missing here? Also, is there anyway to help someone's voice overcome a built in bias so that the lady understands what that person is saying? My wife simply cannot give a command that is recognized by CUE. I don't want to be pessimistic about this voice system but neither I, my daughter nor my wife are having much success with it.

Multnomah University prepares students for meaningful careers that serve Jesus whether they're called to traditional ministry or the marketplace.
Stay connected to our community and help the next generation of Christian leaders become agents of positive change, whether they're serving across the street or across an ocean.
Gina Berquist has stepped into a new role as the vice president of enrollment services. She will oversee the recruitment, student employment and communications departments. Berquist hopes to be a resource to department directors to help them accomplish goals more efficiently and to serve the students.
Her new role will also be to proactively promote Multnomah through an expanded community presence, updated website, and increased promotions. Berquist would also like to implement a parent's weekend for undergraduate students' parents. "It would be good for them to see MBC and what their children do here, rather than only seeing tuition bills," she said.
The vice president of enrollment services is a new position for Multnomah. President Lockwood petitioned to have the position added to the school's bylaws. Berquist, who had recently been named executive director of enrollment services, assumed the new title.
"Gina loves Multnomah and understands our 'ethos' as essential criterion for senior leadership here," Dr. Lockwood said. "But her organizational gifts and her proven abilities in supervising people are extraordinary. I can think of no one who can shoulder these responsibilities better."
Berquist, a 1990 graduate of Multnomah, began working at MBC immediately after college. She managed the Solid Rock Café for eight years, worked in the financial aid department for three years, and in the recruitment department as director for three years.
"MBC is my career," she said. "I'm content to be here, and I believe in what Multnomah does. This is where the Lord wants me."
Berquist is also pursuing her master of arts degree in organizational leadership through Regent University in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
