An Ohio man has won a $275,000 settlement from the federal government because surgeons at a Veterans Administration hospital left two surgical towels inside him after a kidney operation, The Plain Dealer reports.
The towels -- measuring 14-by-11 inches -- were discovered after Robert Sanner, 47, of New Philadelphia, Ohio, underwent a CAT scan because of pain and discomfort days after the operation, the Cleveland newspaper says.
Because of the incident, the VA Medical Center in Cleveland has purchased a new system that uses radio frequency ID chips to keep track of sponges and other surgical equipment, the newspaper reports.

Bay Theatre
340 Main Street,
Seal Beach,
21 people favorited this theater
The Beach Theatre was built in the late-1930's, with 662 seats. It was taken over by Fox West Coast Theatres in June 1946 and was renamed Bay Theatre from June 17, 1946. It was purchased by Richard Loderhose in 1975.
After removing some of the seats, he installed a 1928-built Wurlitzer organ that he had purchased in the early-1960's from New York City's Paramount Theatre. It is called "the largest Wurlitzer pipe organ in any operating theater in the world today".
The theater shows independent, foreign, classic and silent films with organ accompaniment. Seal Beach, with a population of 25,100, is mentioned in an unauthorized biography of Steven Spielberg as being his favorite place to see foreign movies while he was enrolled at nearby Cal State Long Beach in the mid-1960's.
The theater is well maintained, with excellent projection and the vintage seating is very comfortable. The Bay Theatre was closed 'temporary' on August 2, 2012.

I was also at the Bay Sunday night for the 6PM showing of "The Warriors". Luckily, as a non-projectionist I tend to miss most imperfections and the Warrior print was quite good. Seal Beach was surprisingly quiet. I hope this theater can stay open. I live in N Hollywood and made my first visit since 2009. When I lived in Norwalk in the 1980s I enjoyed many movies at the Bay.
Whay a coincidence. I was also there for "The Warriors", and was surprised at the quality of the print for such an old movie. I had no idea it was from 1979 until I read the copyright date on the end credits. I live in Virginia, but in my travels I seek out single screen theaters to visit. I guess I live in the past, but I enjoy experiencing movies the way I remember from my youth.
This theater is closing tonight. Does anyone know if it is permanent? I'll be in LA this weekend and I was hoping to go there.
Their recording states that they will be "temporarily closed".
Unfortunately, "temporary" usually means "permanent". Here is their website:
As of November, no news of progress on hiring new staff or reopening the place. Not promising.
Hi all, please check out The Bay Theater Foundation: a nonprofit organization dedicated to buying and restoring the Bay Theatre in Seal Beach. Reach us at . Thanks!!
Newly-discovered information: The Bay was actually built in the late 1930s. It was then called the Beach. Independently owned and operated, and designed and constructed on a VERY tight budget, it was acquired by Fox West Coast and remodeled (much improved) c. 1947.
The Bay is currently for sale. Next door a giant building is currently being built. I am sure it's an optical illusion, but it seems only inches away from this building. I would love to see the Bay reopen and play some wonderful old films.
From LA Times, Sept. 13, 2016:
The iconic Bay Theatre in Seal Beach has sat dark for the past four years, but a Fullerton-based developer with a penchant for historic buildings has recently made it his mission to purchase the venue and rehabilitate it for films, music and the arts.
With the Seal Beach City Council's vote Monday officially designating the structure as a historic landmark, Paul Dunlap of the Dunlap Property Group is one step closer to breathing life back into the abandoned building.
Located on Main Street and Pacific Coast Highway, the single-screen theater has been a significant gathering spot for locals since it opened in 1947. It featured independent, foreign and classic movies on 35mm film for $8 admission until it closed in 2012. The noticeably large structure stands out among the boutiques and other shops on Main Street.
If all goes according to Dunlap's timeline, he will close escrow on the $2.25-million purchase by December, and then he'll apply for a conditional use permit and spend all of 2017 in reconstruction and redevelopment.
The building, including the interior, will be returned to its original aesthetic, sans the Wurlitzer Opus 1960 pipe organ, which was removed in 2007, Dunlap said. Once strictly a movie house, he said the theater will continue to show films but will also showcase performing arts.

Quick question for ARD, my assumption is that would be $1000 over invoice less the discounts or are you saying $1000 over invoice including the discounts?
The longer you 'work' with them the worse you are...they know they have someone that is 'bound' to them, and they will just grind you down!
Someone that calls, says 'heres the number, are we close?'...and either they make the deal or that caller moves on, will have a higher likelihood of finding the deal. IMO
Back to the question.
Lets say:
MSRP =70k
Invoice = 64k
Incentives: ECO=3500
USAA, Drive whatever, grad whatever = 3500
Total incentives = 7000
Final "invoice" is 64k-7000 = 57,000
Add MACO, (300) add training (200??) add delivery (895?)..and add 500 profit
Your price before tax: 5700+300+200+985+500= 58,985
Do keep in mind that different online sources will add maco, training and delivery into the "invoice" and some will not.... make sure you understand the numbers
Keep it as simple as possible...but no simpler.

My name is Nikki and I'm a single mom of 3 kids. I just started prepping and was wondering if there were tips you could give for women who prep with kids. My plan is to "bug in" if its feasible. Fortunately I live in a rural area and have enough to live off the land. However, if I have to bug out to the woods with 3 kids ages 10, 14 and 15 what skills do I need to learn now? Thank you in advance for any tips!

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. – Sophomores Lauren Campbell and Jen Wilson totaled 18 kills apiece but Northern Arizona volleyball came up just short in a 3-2 loss to Montana at the Rolle Activity Center on Thursday. The Lumberjacks dropped a tight match by sets of 17-25, 25-22, 22-25, 25-17, and 15-12.
"We knew coming in this was going to be a long grind-it-out type of match," said head coach Craig Choate. "We had opportunities to win but ultimately came up one set short. We need to regroup and start preparing for Saturday against Montana State."
NAU (6-9, 2-3 BSC) came out fast in the first set hitting .265 as a team and limiting Montana (8-9, 4-2 BSC) to -.027 during the set. The Lumberjacks limited Montana to just seven kills and forced eight hitting errors.
Montana evened the match at 1-1 in the second set despite another strong effort from the Lumberjacks. The Grizzlies hit .375 in the second while NAU turned in a .216 hitting percentage and was within reach of taking a 2-0 lead down just one point at 23-22. Montana followed up with two kills to end the second.
The Lumberjacks jumped ahead 2-1 in the third but Montana followed suit in the fourth pushing the match to a deciding fifth set. NAU jumped ahead, 3-0, before a 6-1 run by Montana but the Grizzlies up 6-4.
NAU stayed within two points of the Grizzlies till a 5-2 run put the Lumberjacks ahead 12-11 with three kills from Campbell, one from Wilson, and one from senior Chelsea Cheeley. Montana answered back preventing NAU from scoring another point closing the match with four straight points. NAU finished with a .163 hitting percentage while Montana ended the match hitting .191 as a team.
Campbell turned in her best performance of the season tying a match-high in kills and hitting .229 on the night. Wilson reset her career-high in kills, two more than her previous best. Cheeley had a game-high .538 hitting percentage converting 9-of-13 attacks.
Sophomore Kelli Dallmann posted 50 assists and 16 digs for the Lumberjacks only double-double of the night, her sixth of the season.
NAU plays on Saturday, October 9 at 7 p.m. in the Rolle Activity Center against Montana State. The Lumberjacks play their next three conference matches on the road after Saturday.

I went to visit a friend this past weekend. He had bought a Blackhawk Serpa holster. I thought it had some potential. I like the "release style button" to release the gun. (Good weapon retention). The mount system it had looked like someone could buy an extra piece and mount in your vehicle or under a desk or some place and switch locations.
I looked at their site but they make it for Kahr, specifically CW9 or PM9.
Anyone know of something like this made by some other company, made for Kahr?

35 pounds of heroin worth $1.1 million seized by CBP officers at El Paso port
EL PASO, Texas - U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers seized 35.5 pounds of heroin at the El Paso port of entry over the weekend.
The estimated street value of the heroin is $1,136,000.
"This is an enormous seizure," Hector Mancha, CBP El Paso Port Director, said in a statement. "CBP in El Paso, West Texas and New Mexico seized 60 pounds in all 2012 and seven pounds in 2011 so taking 35 pounds in a single incident is huge."
The seizure was made just before 4 p.m. Saturday when a 2000 GMC Jimmy entered the United States from Mexico at the Ysleta international crossing.
CBP officers were performing an enforcement sweep of vehicles waiting in line just south of the primary inspection booths when CBP drug sniffing dog "Wizard" alerted the officers to the vehicle.
CBP officers then did a secondary exam of the vehicle and noted discrepancies in the appearance of the SUV before they scanned the vehicle with a Z-Portal x-ray system and spotted anomalies in the fuel tank area.
CBP officers found a compartment above the fuel tank containing several cellophane wrapped bundles. The contents of the bundles tested positive for heroin.
CBP officer arrested the driver of the car, 21-year-old Jesus Antonio Gonzalez of Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.
He was turned over to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement special agents to face drug charges.

Vitamin A Increases HIV Virus in Breast Milk
"So there are now strong arguments to consider the implications of supplementation to pregnant or lactating women who are HIV-positive," said Dr. Villamor. "It does not look like it's a safe intervention for them." In one of the studies, 1,078 HIV-infected women were divided into 4 groups. The test groups received either 5,000 IU of vitamin A and 30 mg of beta-carotene every day during gestation and the lactation period, or a control regimen. The dose for beta-carotene was higher than the amount usually provided by the diet, according to Dr. Villamor. Smaller doses might not have the same effect.

Closet flange to old cast iron.
2 Attachment(s)
So before I glue all these pipes together and lay cement over the top I wanted to run this by you guys. My main question is, am I going to have an issue with clogging.... The whole run is about 3 ft total and runs from the toilet flange attached to a 4-3 90* closet flange (disregard that 6" of 4" pipe that sticks out of it), into a straight pipe that runs about 2.5 ft into 2 45* and into the cast iron where the original toilet used to be. The run has about a 1.5" drop slope from start to finish Your comments are definitely welcome.
I can't really tell, from your pictures -
It looks like you've got a "tight" 90, underneath the toilet.
You might want to go with a "wide" 90 (sweep)
Wait and see who else has comments!
Thanks ya That's what I was thinking but the problem is keeping the slope... I'm fighting the water line which the pipe has to run under.if I run a 4" long sweeping elbow I don't think I will be able to achieve the slope I'm lookin for..... Still open for comments
1 Attachment(s)
Heres a little better pic of the 90
Hey it looks pretty good to me. I wouldn't worry to much about the tight 90. I had to replace my plumbing on the upper story of my house which only has 2x6 joists so I didn't have alot of room to work with. What I had to do was use a street 90 and then a flange that fit over the street side of the 90. Works like a charm.
You need a 1/4" per foot slope...no more. Too much slope can actually be a bad thing, allowing water to move PAST the waste rather than moving it along the pipe.
199 Attachment(s)
Not sure why you used a 4x3 90 instead of a 3" 90, but each to his own.
Medium sweep 90 will work just fine. Its done all the time.
As mentioned- 1/4" per ft is optimum. More and your solids can be left behind.
1/4 per a inch slope so in 3 feet should have 3/4 inch full run, to much slope and water runs faster than solids then can cause clogging
also if those are copper water lines protect them from being in contact with concrete due to long term exposure will cause corrosion and leaks then you will be cutting concrete again.
also pin new concrete to old by drilling holes at least 2 inches deep into side of old concrete and putting in rebar in holes that way it locks old to new

That's how many students, out of a hybrid class of twenty-three, did the homework for today.
Filed under concerns, General Griping
The letter I sent to my holdout students has, thus far, produced not a single response. Whether this is because the students in question haven't checked their email or because they just don't give a shit, I don't know. Either way, the end result is the same.
While I seem to be having better luck with this term's hybrid students, I'm still not entirely convinced that TCC should use the half in-class / half online format. I've yet to have a student really thrive in the hybrid classes I've taught. Sure, some of them do well enough, but I've not encountered a student who was self-motivated and conscientious enough to really learn in a hybrid course.
I've also come to the conclusion that some English classes work better as hybrids than others. I could probably do well teaching a hybrid grammar class, and the composition class wasn't too bad (and would have been much better had the students actually done the work I assigned) but courses like public speaking and literature are probably best left as traditional "chalk-and-talk" classes. I'm willing to take a lot of responsibility for the relative failure of my hybrid courses on myself; I don't really understand how to teach an online course well, and I know for sure that *I* wouldn't thrive as a student in such a format. I'm going to be more forceful with Joe next term; I asked him not to give me hybrids this time around, but I'm not sure he heard me.
There are plenty of faculty at TCC who DO like teaching the online courses. They can have them.

Jackson's death was blogosphere's saddest day: study
NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - Is it possible to tell how happy we all are?
Yes, according to U.S. scientists who have devised a way to measure the happiness of millions of bloggers -- and found Michael Jackson's death was one of the saddest days while the U.S. election was the happiest in four years.
Peter Dodds and Chris Danforth, a mathematician and computer scientist from the Advanced Computing Center at the University of Vermont, have created a "sensor" to mine 2.3 million blogs and gather sentences beginning with "I feel" or "I am feeling." Each sentence is then given a happiness score from 1 to 9 depending on a point system allocated to 1,034 words. For example, "triumphant" averages 8.87 points, "paradise" 8.72, "pancakes" 6.08, and "suicide" 1.25.
They said this "hedonometer" showed that the U.S. election day last November was the happiest day in four years with a spike in the word "proud" while the day of the "King of Pop's" death was one of the unhappiest.
"The proliferation of personal online writing such as blogs gives us the opportunity to measure emotional levels in real time," they said in their report titled "Measuring the Happiness of Large-Scale Written Expression: Songs, Blogs, and Presidents."
Their study, reported this week in the Journal of Happiness Studies, involved gathering nearly 10 million sentences.
"Our method is only reasonable for large-scale texts, like what's available on the Web. Any one sentence might not show much. There's too much variability in individual expression," said Dodds.
The scientists said that although blog writers tend to be younger and more educated than average, they were broadly representative of the U.S. population.
They were also writing in a natural environment where they were comfortable as opposed to other happiness studies were participants were put on the spot. Continued...

IBM is an information technology company. The company operates in five segments: Global Technology Services, Global Business Services, Software, Systems and Technology, and Global Financing. Technology products and services are in high demand worldwide, as consumers want to be up to speed and companies always need the latest and greatest to stay ahead of the competition. Cloud computing has been hot in recent times, which has not been good news for IBM. Should the company want to hold on to its market share, it needs to make moves quickly and provide the technology products and services that worldwide consumers and companies demand.
The Chinese government is reviewing whether domestic banks' reliance on high-end servers from IBM compromises the nation's financial security, people familiar with the matter said, in an escalation of the dispute with the U.S. over spying claims. Government agencies, including the People's Bank of China and the Ministry of Finance, are asking banks to remove the IBM servers and replace them with a local brand as part of a trial program, said the four people, who asked not to be identified because the review hasn't been made public. The review fits a broader pattern of retaliation after American prosecutors indicted five Chinese military officers for allegedly hacking into the computers of U.S. companies and stealing secrets. Last week, China's government said it will vet technology companies operating in the country, while The Financial Times reported May 25 that China ordered state-owned companies to cut ties with U.S. consulting firms.
Harriet Ip, a Singapore-based spokesperson for IBM, referred questions to IBM in the U.S. Sean Tetpon, a U.S.-based spokesperson for IBM, didn't immediately respond to a phone call or e-mail requesting comment. "Security trumps everything," said Duncan Clark, chairman of BDA China Ltd., a Beijing-based consultant to technology companies. "China doesn't need the U.S. companies in the way it did for the last few decades."

Is breast cancer a laughing matter? Jill Foer Hirsch tells us that while it might not be true for everyone, she couldn't help but laugh at the unexpected, bizarre and downright hilarious experiences she had while working her way through a mastectomy, chemotherapy and reconstruction surgery.
What's so funny about breast cancer? Let's see, reconstruction surgery that included implanting oxygen sensors in her breasts, writing heartfelt breast cancer haikus, and her knack for styling hospital gowns with high heels and sparkly jewelry, to name a few. Of course there was also the breast implant that slid over several inches and created a side/armpit boob she sported for 6 months.
Voiced in the chatty informal way you might speak with a close friend, Hirsch's book takes the reader from the sublime to the ridiculous. In her witty, inimitable style, Hirsch shares the good, the bad, the ugly and the funny about her journey.

Name: Adrienne Garvey
Occupation: Mommy Blogger
Bio: I'm, primarily, a stay-at-home mom. After a successful 13 year career in television news as a reporter and as a producer, life took some turns and my husband and I decided it would be best for all of us if I stayed home with our little ones for a couple years. I also teach various college courses at a local college and at one of the universities in town. That helps me keep my sanity. I love being home to watch my babies grow up, but I also love that it gives me lots of time in the kitchen. I enjoy cooking. My biggest problem is that I have some seriously picky eaters in my house, which can sometimes take the joy out of cooking. So, I've learned to try new recipes and adjust them to my family's liking. That's what my blog's about. I don't write my own recipes. I just don't have that gift; but I can follow directions on someone else's recipe! One of the things my family hates most: onions. You won't find them in any of the recipes I try. Well, they might be listed as an ingredient, but you can be sure we didn't put them in. So let us try things for you. I'll save you the headache of wondering, "Is that recipe any good?" If there's something you want us to try for you, send me the recipe and I'll put it to the test! Think of us as your guinea pigs.

text: OLD GREENWICH, Conn., April 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Ellington Financial LLC (NYSE: EFC) ("Ellington Financial" or the "Company") today announced that its estimated book value per common share as of March 31, 2013 was $25.25, or $24.74 on a diluted basis. Estimated book value per share on a diluted basis takes into account securities convertible into the Company's common shares. These estimates are subject to change upon completion of the Company's month-end valuation procedures relating to its investment positions, and any such change could be material. For month-end reports of its estimated book value per common share, the Company's valuation procedures are generally less comprehensive than the valuation procedures employed for the Company's quarterly and annual financial statements, because the Company does not necessarily solicit third party valuations on substantially all of its assets, nor do the Company's registered independent public accountants generally perform the types of reviews or audits that they do for the Company's quarterly or annual financial statements. It is possible that, when the Company completes its more comprehensive quarterly valuation procedures, it could determine that its book value per common share, as of March 31, 2013, differs materially from the estimate set forth above. There can be no assurance that the Company's estimated book value per common share, as of March 31, 2013, is indicative of what the Company's results are likely to be in future periods, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise its estimated book value per common share prior to issuance of financial statements for such three-month period. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ from our beliefs, expectations, estimates, and projections and, consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements are not historical in nature and can be identified by words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "will," "should," "may," "expect," "project," "believe," "intend," "seek," "plan" and similar expressions or their negative forms, or by references to strategy, plans, or intentions. The Company's results can fluctuate from month to month depending on a variety of factors, some of which are beyond the Company's control and/or are difficult to predict, including, without limitation, changes in interest rates, changes in mortgage default rates and prepayment rates, and other changes in market conditions and economic trends. Furthermore, forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, among other things, those described under Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 15, 2013, which can be accessed through the link to our SEC filings under "For Our Shareholders" on our website ( www.ellingtonfinancial.com) or at the SEC's website ( www.sec.gov). Other risks, uncertainties, and factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected may be described from time to time in reports we file with the SEC, including reports on Forms 10-Q, 10-K and 8-K. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. This release and the information contained herein do not constitute an offer of any securities or solicitation of an offer to purchase securities.

Publication Date: 5/1/2005
Citation: Berkel, L.A., Poston, W.S.C., Reeves, R.S., Foreyt, J.P. 2005. Behavioral interventions for obesity. Journal of the American Dietetic Association. 105(5 Suppl.1):S35-S43. Interpretive Summary: This article describes the application of principles of behavior to manage obesity. This review concludes that behavior modification can be effectively applied to less-traditional approaches (internet use, meal-replacement, and telephone interventions) in weight reduction and maintenance. These findings further advance obesity treatment and its long-term management.
Technical Abstract: Because of the increased risk of comorbid conditions such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and osteoarthritis, and the high health care costs associated with obesity, researchers and clinicians continually search for low-cost and effective treatments for weight loss and weight maintenance. In this article we provide an overview of the principles of behavior modification as applied to the treatment of obesity, examine the benefits of augmenting behavioral interventions with pharmacotherapy, and review the use of less-traditional applications of behavior modification in the treatment of obesity, specifically Internet interventions, meal replacements, and telephone interventions. Based on our review, we conclude that these less-traditional approaches can be used effectively to apply the principles of behavior modification, specifically stimulus control and self-monitoring, to obese patients. Future directions for research are outlined, which include examining the use of nontraditional behavioral interventions with children and the development of culturally sensitive interventions for racial and ethnic minority populations.

This day in Commonwealth Club history: On June 12, 1909, Supervisor J. A. Johnston called for the creation of a municipal streetcar line to prevent United Railroads from monopolizing San Francisco's transit system, saying, – http://cdnc.ucr.edu/cgi-bin/cdnc?a=d&d=SFC19090613.2.75 — "Gentlemen, I think you will agree with me when I say that if we do not run our public utility services, the public utility services will run us."
Starting service in 1912, the publicly owned transit agency would employ operators who had been blacklisted by United Railroads for striking, and Muni has had a strong relationship with labor ever since. That relationship is presently being tested in contentious contract negotiations with the Transport Workers Union. [See http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Muni-officials-expect-normal-servi... ]
