Dark and Light - All News

Dark And Light - Free to Play @ Official Site
The official Dark and Light forums have word that the MMO will be free to play pending a new billing model.
Dark and Light is currently being improved and heavily reorganized. Due to this and several other problems encountered with the billing service, we have decided to stop using this service and to find another partner.
As a direct consequence of this decision, Dark and Light is now totally free, without any kind of restriction, until a more satisfying solution can be set up in the months to come.
This is applicable to all accounts that were already created, whatever may be their current subscription type – Master, Freedom, or Discovery.
Due to the termination of this service, any billing or invoicing is of course stopped, including for accounts that were already opened.
A new system of account creation will be set up in the days to come to allow newcomers to also access Dark And Light for free.
The Dark and Light Team.

Dark And Light - Free Access
Farlan has announced they are offering a free access to Dark and Light. Here's the mailout we received:
No access fees, no subscription...Dark and Light Game Access becomes free*!
Dark and Light, new access mode revealed: Discovery Mode
Come back to Ganareth and invite your friends to join you in this adventure!
It's all very simple: All you need to start playing is a valid Dark and Light Forum account.
It's free: As soon as your forum account is activated, you can start playing immediately for free.
No time limit: This access is active for the whole lifetime of Dark and Light.
What's the trick? No trick, just the goal to give most players the chance to start an unlimited adventure in the world of Ganareth.
>From the 10th level, the gamer continues the adventure with no limit but he cannot collect more XP points (Fighting, Social, and Craft).
If he decides to keep progressing though Ganareth, he will have to buy a Dark and Light activation key and will have to choose to be either a Freedom or a Master player.

Dark And Light - Interview @ Ten Ton Hammer
Farlan Entertainment's Géraldine Lescs has been interviewed at Ten Ton Hammer about Dark and Light. The Q&A opens with an odd question considering the game ceased billing players while they reorganised:
Jeff "Ethec" Woleslagle, Ten Ton Hammer: Our congratulations for a fairly smooth launch for such an ambitious game. I do have to ask though: five hundred quests at release sounds like a fairly low number for such a vast 10,000 mi2 game world. World of Warcraft has over 3,200 quests, by contrast, in a much smaller game world (roughly the size of the greater New York City metro area between its two continents, or about 300 square miles, by ). Would you say Dark and Light's focus is on exploration rather than achieving levels quickly through completing quests one after another, or are the rewards for DnL's quests bigger than what MMO gamers are accustomed to?
Géraldine Lescs, Farlan Entertainment: First, the payers who enter the world of Ganareth do not access to the whole world but only Dark, Light, Al Drifa, Ysatis and Agnar kingdoms, which surface is not as large as the whole world of Ganareth. Second, we always claimed that Dark and Light was offering real freedom. This is why we decided not to force our players to quest all the time but incite them to explore, meet other players, create guilds, build their own world; not only questing.
We didn't reach all our objectives as, due to the size of the world anyway, players needed to be handled at the beginning. This is why we implemented new quests and we reworked the starting zones in order to help players to evolve faster and easer through the world of Ganareth. Very soon, all the players who will enter Dark and Light will be welcomed in a unique starting zone, all players of an alignment being gathered in the same zone.

Dark & Light: Review @ MMORPG.com
Take the world of an MMORPG, multiply it by a hundred and add complete freedom of movement and a fluid day/night cycle with changing seasons and weather. This is Dark and Light. The world of Dark and Light is so huge that you can actually get lost in it. You can spend hours just exploring and enjoying the wonderful views of bright deserts, snowy mountain peeks and dark caverns. Unfortunately, this big beautiful world is pretty much empty.More...
The environment may never stop impressing, but the character models certainly do. They do not make good use of the current technology and their animations are at times silly. In fights your character sometimes swings his sword in circles above his head before hitting the enemy. The characters do a disservice to the environments they populate.

Mining billionaire
The appointment comes amid a fresh war of words between the mining magnate and the Gillard government. Mr Forrest said the government has reneged on a promise to provide indigenous jobs training.
In making the announcement, Mr Forrest continued his attack on the Gillard government over its refusal to back his indigenous training plans, accusing it of failing to honour a promise to provide training covering 50,000 new jobs.
"Warren's first task is to hold the federal government to its 2008 promise to provide the training necessary to deliver jobs committed under the 50,000 jobs campaign," he said.
Mr Forrest wants to open four vocational training and employment centres where training would be delivered for a guaranteed job.
The government has so far refused to endorse the employment scheme.
Speaking at the National Press Club in Canberra on Tuesday, he said the government needed to change its approach and support his model for indigenous employment in which training is linked to a "real job".
He said the Australian Employment Covenant, an employer scheme designed to provide 50,000 additional indigenous jobs, had grown to 330 corporate members committing to creating more than 61,000 jobs.
Mr Mundine was involved in the setting-up of the covenant as chairman of the Australian Indigenous Chamber of Commerce.
Speaking at a Coca-Cola Amatil function yesterday, Mr Forrest reiterated his call for the government to stop spending on training that was not linked to jobs.
"Let's stop wasting valuable money on training for training's sake," he said. Mr Forrest said the government stood to gain $6.5 billion a year by bringing Aboriginal unemployment down.

Suggestions for Law or Business related anime
I love business and law, and I love anime. Is there any anime that is law or business related ? Something like Black Jack but with a different setting. I see on AnimeNFO that there are 20 Law mangas. I do not read Japanese, so I am looking for either anime or translated mangas.
Would also be awesome if that make a Phoenix Wright anime.

There's not much that I can think of in this category except perhaps Hataraki Man, a story about a female editor in a Japanese publishing house. It focuses much more on workplace relationships than larger business or legal issues, though.
I can't think of a show that portrays business in a serious and even-handed manner. Most depictions of business take the cliched evil conglomerates perspective (Noein and Black Lagoon, for instance). Series depicting legal matters are even rarer in my experience; I can't think of any. Again when attorneys appear they're usually there to facilitate the villain's evil intentions; the attorney in the current Daughter of Twenty Faces is a good example.
Laws and rules do matter in some series but how those laws and rules got made usually takes place off-screen. In the just-completed Toshokan Sensou, for instance, the politics that creates the pro-censorship and anti-censorship factions is hinted at but not really fleshed out. Some of the imperial Asian costume dramas like Saiunkoku Monogatari or Seirei no Moribito tred similar ground, though the politics in SaiMono is more extensively depicted than in most shows.
The closest things I can think of are mystery/thriller types of shows like Monster, Shion no Ou, Paranoia Agent, or even Mononoke. None of these depict the process of law-making, of course, only the process of enforcement. Junni Kokki portrays a Confucian society and has some philosophical discussions about good rulers and good laws.

Maybe the new Yakushiji Ryouko no Jikenbo might interest you, it's not quite law or business but I heard it involves a more professional setting than usual. Overachieving alpha females and whatnot.
Only one episode's out and I don't think it's subbed yet but it will be soon.
Heard they watered down the story (or was it inserted an original one) but apparently the original is good so if you might wait for that...
If you're okay with just a business setting then I second Hataraki Man as well. REC also involves some of it although it is very short and focuses mostly on the working life of a seiyuu (but her boyfriend works in a food company and ends up working with her to help market a new snack)
Aside from that, hm.... It's true there aren't many shows dealing with law. Hm. My favourite series which features relatively realistic depictions of the workplace and problematic issues where business sometimes comes into place would be Planetes. I think the part where the guy from Africa tried to sell his stuff but nobody listened might interest you perhaps (but then again, there's a lot of other stuff unrelated to your interest)
It is indeed a lot easier to find this sort of stuff in manga...

Sumomo has a lead who wants to be a lawyer and is constantly trying to quote the law to solve his problems. However the series is almost certainly not the kind of thing you're looking for, as it's an ecchi comedy/action. But it was funny. And is the first thing that pops to mind as far as 'legal' anime goes.

According to reports, even as people are facing severe hardships with power cuts and many industries are closing down due to the problem, there was no proper response on the use of solar energy in Krishna district.
According to official sources, there are about 13 lakh power connections in the district, of which 11 lakhs are domestic services. The demand was about 11.5 million units, but the supply was only 9.6 million units. Speaking to The Hindu, New and Renewable Energy Development Corporation of Andhra Pradesh (NREDCAP) District Manager K. Srinivas said the government was taking steps to solve power problem in the State. The Government of India had introduced a scheme to encourage solar energy and identified 179 channel partners across the country.
The NREDCAP would give permission for installing solar system with 200 watts capacity for domestic users and 250 kilo watts capacity for industries. The Government would give a subsidy of Rs. 21,600 for a Rs.54,000 project, and the customer could install the system by contacting the channel partners or bank officials, said the DM.

QuickBooks' accounting solutions streamline your business accounting processes
In the world of business, there is no room for mistakes – especially when it comes to managing a company's finances. No matter how large or small a business is, it's imperative that a solid accounting system be in place to manage funds effectively, simply and, most importantly, with utmost accuracy.
QuickBooks' range of accounting solutions and software packages has been designed to help facilitate all bookkeeping practices as efficiently as possible. After all, if a business is not in control of its cash flow, it cannot ensure its liquidity and long-term sustainability.
Electronic accounting solutions have existed for a number of years, and have revolutionised accounting systems across the world. Dispensing with manual bookkeeping and accounting systems has lead to a significant reduction in paperwork, clutter and, importantly, errors. Most significantly, however, these systems have given businesses back one of their greatest assets: Time.
In any company, one of the greatest challenges is effectively managing the business's money, and it's time. Investing in high-quality, electronic accounting solutions such as QuickBooks' accounting packages, takes care of both.
View QuickBooks' selection of accounting solutions and bookkeeping packages, or read on to learn more about the benefits of these leading accounting software solutions.
Why you need to change to electronic accounting solutions
Human error may be a fact of life, but it should not be a feature of your business's bookkeeping and accounting systems. In fact, a single mistake could cause very costly damage. In today's technologically advanced era, there really is no excuse for expensive, embarrassing and potentially unlawful mistakes. Thanks to electronic accounting solutions, there is no more guesswork.
Of all our clients who have implemented QuickBooks' accounting solutions in their companies, the most frequent comment we receive is, "If only we'd done this sooner!" Regardless of the size of your business, there is always a need for an effective bookkeeping system, and QuickBooks' accounting solutions are ideal for any small to medium-sized business in South Africa.
When you decide to start running your own business full-time, the first year of trading is absolutely crucial to its longevity – and successful trading can only take place when the business's cash is properly managed. Owning your own business doesn't necessarily make you a bookkeeping pro – it makes you a pro at what you love best! QuickBooks' accounting solutions have been designed to manage all your financial processes quickly and easily, allowing you to focus on maintaining your business rather than its books.
How do I select the right QuickBooks' accounting solutions for my business?
QuickBooks' accounting solutions have been created to meet the bookkeeping requirements of any company – and to cater to its changing needs as well. If you've got a small company, start with a basic accounting program such as QuickBooks SimpleStart 2008, which has been expertly designed to help new and small businesses to manage that initial, critical year of trading.
Once your company has started to grow, consider upgrading to QuickBooks Pro 2008 or QuickBooks Premier 2008, which offer complete financial management solutions that are fast, simple to use and easy to implement. All of our accounting packages can be tailored to the unique bookkeeping and financial requirements of any business.
We also offer various payroll software packages to facilitate all your weekly and monthly payroll transactions.
Save time, protect your cash flow, with QuickBooks' accounting solutions
The business world is evolving more rapidly than ever before, and so is the way companies are managing their finances. As commerce becomes increasingly advanced, businesses need faster, more efficient tools to manage their finances and ensure compliance with new laws and business practices.
Up-to-date, intelligent accounting solutions, such as QuickBooks' accounting packages, ensure that businesses are able to save time whilst simultaneously managing their finances faster than ever. Systematic and streamlined, these programs reduce paperwork, simplify processes and banish errors. In essence, they allow accounting processes to be understood at a glance, and managed at a click of the mouse.
If you're not already using electronic accounting solutions, there's no better time to start. QuickBooks' packages are easy to install and include interactive audio tutorials to help you set up your company's financial systems.

I still don't see a post quoting her, or the zetas, that has been proved wrong. This threat subject LIES. I want to see some inaccuracies here people!!!
Anonymous Coward 569410
Here are but a few:
"The Zetas have commented on Hale-Bopp since it first hit the press in mid-1995. They have stated that Hale-Bopp is a fraud, designed to get the populace looking in the wrong direction, not toward Orion." – Date unknown
"We know that the 12th Planet will make its passage in late spring or early summer of the year 2003 because we are observing the planet approaching your solar system." – Date unknown
"We have given the correct dates for the return of the 12th Planet as the year 2003 for the devastating first pass. All other dates are incorrect." – Date unknown
"Thus, you have Planet X in the news, under every subject but the inbound planet that will pass on May 15, 2003 or shortly thereafter." – June 2002
"Since the inception of ZetaTalk, the passage with rotation stoppage and pole shift has been described as occurring ´shortly after May 15, 2003.´" – Date unknown
"By May 15th, it will be utterly clear that earth changes are in process, most humans walking about in shock, numb. There will be no debate about a mistake. We have stated that the rotation will stop for approximately a week." – Date unknown
"Slowing rotation is so pronounced that even those not aware of the prediction are noticing their clocks minutes slow, on a regular basis, from ´official´ time." – March 22, 2003
"...nor will the war progress to the point where a regime change occurs." – Commenting on Iraq, March 22, 2003
"In short, they are not heeding the warnings of the Council, so stronger measures will shortly be taken. These measures will be, like the Columbia disaster, of a magnitude to stop the onslaught of the invasion as though the breath had been taken out of the body." – Commenting on Iraq, March 22, 2003
"We have stated that Planet X will be visible in the daytime sky, 7 weeks before passage. Given that we have stated that passage is shortly after May 15, 2003, as at this time those wanting to survive should be at their safe locations, this is putting the visibility into the last week of March at the earliest." – March 2003
"Since we were precise about the dates, even the number of hours for rotation stoppage (5.9 days) [on the Loud Gentile show], we have no problem with being precise on the meaning of the Pole Shift date as May 27." – May 16, 2003
"On this date, May 30, 2003 the Earth is poised to experience great quakes and stretching of rifts, so that discussions of the exact date of rotation stoppage or the shift will be replaced by frantic efforts to deal with one disaster after another." – May 30, 2003
"You have only weeks not months" – July 20, 2003
"We have stated that Planet X would travel the span of Saturn's orbit in 3 short months. In that Planet X has been visible to the naked eye since the very last days in March..." – August 28, 2003
"But at the current time, by late August, there is no question that the Planet X complex has arrived between the Earth and Sun..." – August 28, 2003
"Despite loud evidence that Planet X has arrived..." – September 21, 2003
"Given the increasingly obvious fact that Planet X is in the vicinity and not going away before trashing the neighborhood..." – October 11, 2003
"Those not willing or able to make changes in their lives before the Holidays may find the Holidays possible, but just barely, as the next sweeping arm of the Sun will put all doubt aside." – November 15, 2003
"The last arm swept by Earth around Dec 25, the next expected by the anxious humans watching the drama to start around Feb 9, 2004." – January 30, 2004
"The Earth´s dark twin, approaching from behind her, has scant months to reach her and create a crisis. Earth stopping on Dec 25 allows for a full half orbit by this twin by June 25, 2004, but the crisis will occur sooner and for many reasons. This twin cannot go to the left, where Venus lies, nor the right, where Mars rides, and cannot move forward. The effect of such a traffic jam is not within man's knowledge bank." – April 2004
"Certain death on the International Space Station lies ahead for any who would remain there during the coming weeks." – December 10, 2004
"If fireballs have been an occasional entertainment, they will soon become a daily affair almost everywhere" – February 4, 2005
"The Earth is now coming into a similar period, when the N Pole of Planet X is swinging, slowing, around to point away from the Sun for the 3 days of darkness time those in the northern hemisphere of Earth will inevitably experience." – November 17, 2005
"The Zetas will not give a date beyond saying that 2012 is too far out, for the pole shift." – February 18, 2006 on GLP.

At age 80, Kennedy (an honorary associate of the National Secular Society) wrote All in the Mind: A Farewell to God, in which he dismissed beliefs on which Christianity was founded as "preposterous." He was knighted in 1994 by John Major's government for his services to journalism. Major's predecessor, Margaret Thatcher, had vetoed Kennedy's knighthood. For Kennedy, the "playing fields" of Eton College included a stint in a jazz band. After serving in the Royal Navy in World War II, he attended Christ Church, Oxford, before starting work as an investigative reporter. In 1950, he married ballet dancer Moira Shearer, who died in 2006. They had a son and three daughters.

Christine Kinealy, professor of history in the College of Arts and Sciences and director of the Irish Hunger Institute at Quinnipiac University, was featured in the Waterbury Republican-American for her research of Ireland's Great Famine.
"When I was (at) Trinity (College, Dublin, in the 1980s), the orthodoxy was that the British had done everything they could about Ireland," said Kinealy. "But when I started to do my own research, I discovered that they could have done more and that they were very well-informed about what was going on. What I was finding was going against the orthodoxy. The stark fact is that we know over 1 million people died. This was at the heart of the richest empire in the world. How could this happen nowhere else? How could it happen only in Ireland?"
Kinealy made it her mission to answer these questions.
"There was a callousness, certainly," said Kinealy. "Within the British government, there was this almost pragmatic view that this blight is being sent by providence and now we're be able to do major change in Ireland. There was almost a smugness about it."
She said the British wanted to modernize Ireland. "But Ireland wasn't Britain," she told the daily newspaper. "Ireland couldn't have developed that way. But it was that false idea, 'we are the gold standard.' All it did was destroy a culture."

29Oct: Marching through Oakland against police brutality
On Oct 29th, approx 3-400 people gathered and marched against police brutality, justice for Oscar Grant and in solidarity with the brutal assault on Occupy Oakland. We marched to the OPD detention facility, back around to uptown, and through West Oakland. Unfortunately, I was stuck with a shield for the last half of the march, so wasn't able to capture the West Oakland portion.

On October 5, 2010, the FTC, CMS, and OIG hosted a public workshop on ACOs at the offices of CMS in Baltimore, MD. The purpose of the workshop was to obtain information from industry stakeholders who have an interest in, or experience with, the development and operation of ACOs. One key focus of the workshop was to assess how the variety of possible ACO structures in different health care markets could affect the prices and the quality of health care delivered to privately insured patients, as well as to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. Another key focus was to address how the requirements of the law could or should be addressed in regulations that CMS is currently developing. Finally, the workshop also focused on whether, and if so, to what extent any safe harbors, exceptions, exemptions or waivers from the laws may be warranted.
Each of these agencies has stated that it recognizes the importance of evaluating how to apply these laws to the creation and operation of ACOs. These laws are also a critical consideration in CMS's developing regulations to implement the Medicare Shared Savings Program.
In addition, these agencies recognize that an ACO may wish to contract with payers in the private health care market, as well as with CMS. CMS states that experience has shown that the integration of health care delivery among independent providers is a complex process that requires a substantial, commitment of health care providers' resources and time. CMS further opines that as a result of the resources and time required to integrate independent provider practices, health care providers are more likely to integrate their care delivery for Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries if they also use the same delivery system for patients covered by health insurance in the private market. The potential for ACOs to operate in both public and private insurance markets further supports the need to explore the application of these laws enforced by the FTC, CMS and OIG to ACOs.
For more information regarding the ACO Public Workshop to the FTC website1.
The AMA Statement
A. Antitrust
·The Administration should do everything possible to facilitate participation by all types of provider structures authorized under the Accountable Care Act, and not inadvertently bias participation in favor of large health systems and hospital-dominated networks.
· The AMA strongly recommends that the Agencies explicitly recognize that ACOs should be protected by the antitrust laws and their fee negotiations should not be subject to the per-se rule.
· Financial risk sharing arrangements were common in the 1990s. Since then, the market has turned against risk sharing models of integration. It is thus unclear whether many physicians creating ACOs will pursue a risk sharing model. For those physicians and those markets where financial risk sharing arrangements are still viable, the Agencies should clarify the requirements for adequate financial risk sharing within the context of ACOs. Accordingly the Agencies should acknowledge sufficient financial integration in the care of any contract employing: (1) capitation; (2) substantial withholds (15%-20% range); (3) a percentage of premium; (4) global fees for or all-inclusive case rates; (5) cost and utilization targets; (6) or any other pay-for-performance reimbursement models that involve risk.
B. ACOs and Clinical Integration
Clinical integration is an important model for physician collaboration. The FTC/DOJ should clarify the clinical requirements an ACO should meet in order to avoid application of the per se rule. It is essential, however, that the FTC/DOJ not put forward ACO clinical integration requirements that will themselves pose an unreasonable barrier to ACO development. The current clinical integration standards published in the FTC/DOJ Joint Standards and FTC advisory opinions to date will deter the formation of ACOs. Both Med South and GRIPA made significant investments in capital and resources, using a cadre of consultants and technology experts to assist in the effort. The evidence to date suggests that few, if any, clinical integration programs will soon recover their initial investment. For example, GRIPA has not come close to recovering its investment in its efforts to comply with the FTC's standards.
C. Clinical Integration Programs
ACOs need the ability to negotiate with insurers on an exclusive basis. If health insurers want to benefit from the ACOs clinical integration program, they must deal with the ACO directly. Non-exclusive clinical integration programs have not done well commercially. Structuring a clinical integration program on a non-exclusive basis invites "free riding". Developing a clinical integration program is expensive and requires both a substantial start up investment and then continuing investments to maintain the program. The ACO must (a) create treatment protocols that improve outcomes and lower costs, (b) teach these protocols to physicians, (c) make sure these protocols are being followed, and (d) create the infrastructure needed to support the clinical integration efforts such as HIT systems and interoperability to enable physicians to securely exchange health information about their patients. An individual health insurer has significantly less incentive to purchase this enhanced service from the ACO program, if it can sign contracts with individual network physicians (whose practices have been advantaged by, for example, HIT training) and get some of the benefits created by the clinical integration program at no additional cost. This practice is called a "free ride". If enough insurers take a "free ride", then the clinical integration programs will fail as it will discourage physicians from setting up ACO networks. Exclusive dealing arrangements are a critical tool that ACOs will need to use, and antitrust enforcement agencies need to recognize this in the case of ACOs. Also noted:
·The 20 percent market share threshold for exclusive arrangements is extremely low.
·The agencies should adopt the principle that joint negotiation at the request of the health insurer cannot constitute an antitrust conspiracy.
·Physicians will be discouraged from investing and taking part in new delivery and payment models if the legal protections from civil penalties and criminal sanctions afforded to them suddenly expire. Therefore, any safe harbors exceptions, exemptions, or waivers allowed under the Shared Savings Program should continue beyond the expiration date of the program so that the organizational structure participating as an ACO does not become illegal overnight simply because the program does not continue.
D. Waivers, Safe Harbors, and/or Exceptions under §§1128A, 1128B and Title XVIII of the Social Security Act
The AMA supports the establishment of a full range of waivers and/or the establishment of safe harbors or exceptions that will enable independent physicians to effectively participate in ACOs.
·Gainsharing – Under §1128(b)(1) of the Social Security Act, a hospital is prohibited from making payment directly or indirectly to a physician as an inducement to reduce or limit services to Medicare or Medicaid beneficiaries. Hospitals that make such payments are subject to CMPs up to $2,000.00 per patient. The AMA supports a safe harbor for gainsharing arrangements that meet certain criteria to be established by the OIG including transparency, requested disclosure to patients, and patient care safeguards.
·Antikickback Statute (AKS) - §1128B of the Social Security Act contains the AKS which prohibits an entity or person (the payor) from paying, or even offering to pay remuneration, i.e., anything of value, to a person or entity (payee) in exchange for the payee making referrals to, or otherwise generating business for, the payor. The AKS contains a number of safe harbors, which if satisfied, protect the parties to an arrangement from AKS exposure. A violation of the AKS can result in civil penalties, program exclusion, and even possible imprisonment. The AMA has urged the OIG to establish a safe harbor for physician organizations that are integrating in an effort to become ACOs. ACOs that involve integration of physicians practice must have safe harbor protection since these organizations will need to exercise a degree of control over the physician's referrals.
· The Stark Law – Title XVIII of the Social Security Act contains the Stark statute and its implementing regulations. The Stark Law prohibits a physician from referring a Medicare beneficiary to an entity for the furnishing of designated health service (DHS) if the physician (or the physician's immediate family member) has a financial relationship with the entity, unless a Stark Law exception applies. A financial relationship can take the form of an ownership/investment interest. A financial arrangement may be a compensation arrangement. A violation of the Stark Law, even a technical violation, can result in substantial civil penalties and program exclusion. The AMA urges the OIG to waive current Stark Law restrictions or create a new exception for physician led ACOs. Accordingly, if a physician organization is integrating as a means of becoming an ACO, that organization's payment to its constituent members should be excepted from the Stark Law if the remuneration is consistent with fair market value of members' services and not determined in a manner that takes into account the volume or value of any members' referrals.
It is impossible to know, at this time, exactly how a physician network should be structured to seek approval as an ACO. As specific regulations governing the required structure and activities of ACOs have not yet been created, nonetheless published, the future course and/or potential viability of any contemplated ACO will require careful scrutiny and detailed analysis.

Iran Balks at Nuclear Offer, Calls for End to Sanctions (WSJ) WALL STREET JOURNAL) By JAY SOLOMON and FARNAZ FASSIHI BAGHDAD, Iraq 05/24/12)
Source: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304707604577421760274208988.html
WALL STREET JOURNAL Articles-Index-Top
BAGHDADHopes for a quick diplomatic breakthrough in talks here aimed at containing Tehran´s nuclear program diminished as Iranians balked at the lack of sanctions relief in a proposal made by global powers.
Negotiations that resumed Wednesday were extended into Thursday, as U.S. and European officials said they remained committed to finding a way out of the impasse.
Iran indicated it saw an end to impending Western sanctions on Iran´s oil trade as necessary for the talks to advance. The White House stressed on Wednesday that this wasn´t an option.
"We will continue to press forward with our allies and partners with the unprecedented sanctions regime as we, on a separate track, work with our P5+1 partners to pursue an effort to resolve this conflict diplomatically," spokesman Jay Carney said. The P5+1, the group in negotiations with Iran, comprises the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council plus Germany.
Iran is under pressure from economic sanctions and an impending European Union oil embargo and U.S. ban on transactions through Iran´s central bank, which handles oil purchases.
The U.S. has said Tehran must first take significant steps toward addressing concerns that it seeks nuclear weapons before Washington dials back sanctions.
In its proposal to Iran here on Wednesday, the P5+1 offered to ease sanctions that bar the exports of U.S.-made spare aircraft parts to Iran´s national carriers and aid for Iran´s development of nonmilitary applications for nuclear power, people briefed on the talks said.
In return, the international bloc formally proposed to Iran that it freeze production of nuclear fuel enriched to 20% purity and ship its stockpile of the fuel to a third country, Western diplomats said. The proposal package also seeks to close an Iranian enrichment facility built inside a fortified military bunker near the holy city of Qom.
Iran´s official IRNA news agency said late Wednesday that for the talks to bear results the package needed to be significantly revised. IRNA said the West was expecting more compromise from Iran and offering few incentives.
Iran´s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has final say on Iran´s nuclear policy, is likely to compromise only if tough economic sanctions on Iran are removed, analysts said.
"Khamenei is fully aware that if the sanctions continue the economy will collapse and he wants relief. He might not be willing to compromise to the level the West expects," said Hossein Bastani, an Iran expert and former government official now based in Paris.
Iran offered its own package on Wednesday, including what it said was a comprehensive road map of how it believed the negotiations should progress, IRNA reported. The proposal included details on what compromises Iran would make and what it expected its international counterparts to offer.
"In Iran´s package, the give and take is balanced," IRNA said.
Senior U.S. officials said late Wednesday that they viewed the talks as at an early stage and that they weren´t deterred. They also said that, unlike in previous negotiations, the P5+1 was engaged in serious discussions with Tehran.
"I would have expected nothing more than Iran to say that this [offer] was unbalanced," said a senior U.S. official involved in the talks. "This is a negotiation."
Iran, too, seemed to praise the process, saying both sides had clearly presented their positions and calling parts of the discussions transparent.
The talks sought to build on a tentative agreement reached Monday between Iran and the U.N. nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency, that would allow international inspectors access to sites, scientists and documents the West believes are related to an Iranian nuclear-weapons program.
EU foreign-policy chief Catherine Ashton led the P5+1 side in the talks in Baghdad´s Green Zone. She presented the group´s package to Iran´s chief nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili, the personal representative of Mr. Khamenei.
The P5+1´s proposed moves to limit Iran´s production and stockpile of nuclear fuel were seen as necessary to reduce Iran´s ability to quickly amass the fissile material needed to develop an atomic weapon though Tehran says its nuclear program is for strictly peaceful applications.
"There´s a new offer on the table which addresses our concerns, not the least the 20% enriched uranium," said Michael Mann, spokesman for Mrs. Ashton. "We´re hoping the Iranians will respond in a positive way."
Iranian officials have said in recent days that the international community must recognize Tehran´s right to produce nuclear fuel if the diplomacy is to move forward.
They have also demanded that the U.S. and EU ease economic sanctions that have compelled nations to cut back on buying Iranian oil, the country´s primary source of revenue.
The Obama administration has suggested it would be willing to accept Iran´s production of nuclear fuel sometime in the future, but only if Tehran agrees to rigorous international inspections and clarifies its alleged nuclear-weapons work.

At first I thought this was a baby wipe. Then I read online that Woody Wipes were stronger and made for men. So I tried them out and well...these bad boys work way better ! They got the funk off of my junk. Hmm now that I think about it, these are perfect for bird baths when you're in a rush before work. LOL. My stock with my girlfriend has gone up and I know she appreciates a clean Woody. I'm sure you will too. www.woodywipes.com

Best Of :: People & Places
Lisa Starry gets it.
The artistic director/choreographer for Phoenix's 10-year-old, 20-member-strong Scorpius collective understands that the terms "modern dance" and "interpretive dance" are buzz-kills in a society with a crippled economy and a stunted attention span. That's why Starry gives hesitant Gen Xers and Yers — the folks with the disposable incomes — what they want. And that's a little pop-culture sugar to help the medicine, er, contemporary dance go down.
One of Starry's core influences is Cirque du Soleil. A Vampire Tale, her annual "Nutcracker of Halloween," predated Twilight mania. In general, Starry says her inspiration comes from the movies rather than other choreographers (and those who've seen A Vampire Tale know it's much closer in spirit to Interview with the Vampire than Bella Swan).
"My dream was always to entertain, and that's what is working for Scorpius," she says. We're glad.
Though nobody knows her real name, "Cake Lady," as downtowners have affectionately dubbed her, continues to contribute to central Phoenix lore. In short, there's a woman about town who occasionally shows up at gatherings (a music performance, an art exhibit) looking for free stuff, especially cake. The consensus is that she reads New Times (a smart woman, indeed) and then calls ahead to inquire about the possibility of free goodies. She's been spotted only a couple of times, including years ago at a birthday party at the now-defunct Paper Heart, where she briefly showed up, then dashed out the door with a bunch of cake to go. Hey, Cake Lady, share some next time!
Yes, you're reading that right. No, we're not heat-addled.
Summer in Phoenix rules.
We first noticed this seeming contraction one day several years ago when all the traffic on Indian School Road dried up. Poof! It was like a scene from I Am Legend or Vanilla Sky. And it made us ponder the other positives of a season in which temps can hit the 120s in the shade and you can get a third-degree burn on your butt just by getting in your car.
The sunsets. The storms. The long light of evenings. The short lines at our favorite hangs. The full-moon hikes. The abundant parking at Piestewa Peak. The pool parties. The misters. The cheap resort rates. The free Sunday-afternoon films at the Phoenix Art Museum.
More than specific pleasures, though, our late-blooming appreciation of Phoenix summer has to do with the sense of inclusion we feel from Memorial Day through late September. For 120-odd days, it's our town — not the fifth-largest city in America. It feels like a community.
It's hot, but it's home.
It was weird, right? This year, summer didn't really start 'til July. Sure, we had a hot day here and there, but any true Phoenician knows to brace for the heat starting in, oh, March. Not so in 2009, and June was particularly balmy. If you don't believe us, check out the stats: We haven't had this many days under 100 in the month of June (only 13!) since 1927. Which only made July the cruelest month — when, as if on cue, the temperature soared.
Here at New Times, we know maps. We've spent countless hours trying to assemble them for our own various purposes. That's why we have such an appreciation for the Small Wonders map, published by Local First Arizona, designed to promote local businesses in both central/downtown Phoenix and Tempe. Consider this our thank you note for the labor of love it took to create these fold-out, easy-to-use, eye-pleasing guides to our favorite stuff in the city. It was surely no small feat to produce them.
Depending on whom you ask, the year-old Metro light rail may or may not be the most over-hyped project in Phoenix history. But no matter what you think of the billion-dollar (and counting!) project, you have to admit the view of the Phoenix skyline from the bridge going over Tempe Town Lake is pretty amazing, especially at dusk. From the confines of the always overpacked or nearly empty train car, you get a glimpse of Phoenix at its best. The downtown towers reach ever higher, their steady ascent seemingly fueled by the mysterious desert waters around you, but they never quite catch their backdrop, South Mountain. As the copper-colored star fades into the purplish haze of an Arizona sunset, even the most curmudgeonly rail-hater has to be impressed by the beautiful scene framed through the windows of this ambitious transportation project.

Can I really make my kids bully proof?
Dr Justin Coulson believes that resilience and confidence are the key to our kids staying 'bully proof', but parental relationships are also vital. He shares some tips to help parents and kids deal with bullies and stay bully proof.
'Bully proof' has become one of the buzz words of recent years as bullying interventions have become commonplace in schools and workplaces. Everyone, understandably, wants to 'bully proof' their child. But can we really make our kids bully proof? And what does it even mean? Regardless of how many ways we try to protect our kids there is no way to guarantee your child won't end up on the wrong end of a bully's tongue, email or fist. As such, bully proofing a child has to be about more than keeping our kids away from the bullies. A child who is bully proofed is a child for whom a bully's barbs don't catch. Instead, the child bounces back with resilience and confidence.
Bully proof through competence and confidence
Bullies tend to select easy targets as victims – usually smaller, quieter kids with a lack of confidence and social skills. Kids who are both competent and confident are less likely to be bullied than kids with low skills and low self-esteem.
Bully proof through strong parental relationships
When parents share a strong, secure, safe relationship with their child, the child builds important resources that strengthen feelings of worth, esteem and efficacy. So how can parents do this?
Model healthy relationships
Be kind, gentle and respectful. Respond to challenging behaviour in ways that teach, rather than by being coercive, aggressive and punitive. If we bully our kids, we set them up to be victims. Yelling, criticising, hitting and shaming are behaviours that make our kids feel worthless. If we treat our children with respect, they will see our modelling of good social skills and follow. They will believe that they are respectable and are less likely to be affected by bullies.
Be available
If we dismiss our children and their challenges we reduce the likelihood that they'll seek us out for help. By being emotionally available, our children can use us as a sounding board and a safe haven to return to when they experience difficulty.
Teach them how to stop bullying
When bystanders get involved, bullying is stopped in over 50 percent of cases, usually within around 10 seconds. When a peer is bullied, we can teach our children that they can say something to help – in ways that are safe. (These ideas work in bystander situations, but also when our child is the bullying target.) Here are some ways our children can respond to bullies:
"Why would you say that?" "Why would you try to bait me (or my friend)?" "Why would you want to say things that are so upsetting?"
These questions highlight that you are aware that someone is being unkind. Often merely pointing this out can force a backdown. But don't bait the bully. Saying things like, "Is that the best you can do?" or, "You're really tough with all your friends" invites ongoing antagonism and threatens a bully's sense of esteem. The typical response to such a response will be that the bully lashes out.
Bully-proof through agreement
When we agree with a bully, the general lack of response reduces the impact of their words and the emotion in the situation. For example:
Bully: "You're fat." Respondent: "I know." Bully: "You just said you're fat! Hahaha!" Respondent: "I know. What's your point?"
Will ignoring work?
Ignoring a bully is a strategy that can work in some circumstances. In other situations, however, ignoring may provoke even more aggression.
Assertiveness is not bully proof
Finally, children should know that making demands of a bully will rarely be effective. Saying things like "Leave me alone. Stop it." are generally less effective. While many schools teach statements like this as 'assertiveness training' for their students, such statements typically only work when they are utilised as part of a system where refusal to stop can be escalated to a teacher or other powerful person. Further, saying "Stop it, I don't like it" gives the bully the satisfaction of 'winning'. They know they've gotten under the skin of the victim.
Communication is key
The best way to have a bully proof child is to talk with your child – lots. A strong foundation of trust is central to your child's avoidance of bullies and their capacity to bounce back, should bullying occur. By chatting about how our children feel about themselves, how bullies work and what your child can do in response to bullying targeted at themselves or their friends, you can equip them with the knowledge they need to minimise the influence of bullies in their lives.
Has your child ever been the target of a bully? How did you/they deal with it? Share your stories.

Does your business have a bad reputation?

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I'm super disappointed with ideeli. They're very unprofessional, it is frustrating to get my orders they take too long to ship and i thought it's maybe because i live in Hawaii but i spend over $4000 since i have been a member. On my last order i have spent about almost $300 and it took about a month, and when i received my order it wasn't even what i've ordered. They've mixed up my order with somebody's stuff. When i told them about it they told me to wait 24 hours so they can get back to me but i never heard from them back. it's frustrating.. I will never shop there again. i just want to say don't waste your money with them.

Ronnie Retton
Ronald Lee Retton
- Bats Left, Throws Right
- Height 5' 7", Weight 160 lb.
- School West Virginia University
- Born October 30, 1937 in Grant Town, WV USA
Biographical Information[edit]
Ronnie Retton played for six seasons in the minor leagues, reaching AA. His daughter Mary Lou Retton achieved greater fame as a US Olympic gymnast.
In college, Retton hit .417 for the 1957 WVU Mountaineers, leading the team. He was All-Conference in both 1957 and 1959 at shortstop. He also played basketball for WVU, appearing in the 1959 NCAA basketball championship. He graduated with a B.S. in Physical Education. Signing with the New York Yankees, he hit .271/.425/.386 with 90 walks, 7 triples and 24 steals in 28 tries for the 1959 Auburn Yankees. He tied for fifth in the New York-Penn League in three-baggers, tied Gus Gil for third in walks and was third in stolen bases. He fielded .933 at short. In 1960, he batted .288/?/.406 with 11 triples for Auburn. He tied three other players for the NYPL lead in triples.
During 1961, he hit .291/.412/.367 with 103 walks and 114 runs for the Greensboro Yankees and fielded .931 at shortstop. He batted .280/.407/.345 with 114 walks and 98 runs for the 1962 Augusta Yankees while fielding .951. He led the South Atlantic League in walks (16 ahead of runner-up Deacon Jones), made the top 10 in OBP and was 5th in runs, trailing Pete Rose Sr., Jones, Tommy Helms and Don Buford, all of whom would play in the majors. His 34 errors tied Helms for the most of SAL shortstops, but both were also above the league average in fielding percentage; the high error totals resulted from their playing more games than those with lower fielding percentages.
Back with Augusta the next year, he fell to .240/.359/.324 with 85 runs, 92 walks and 10 triples. He fielded .957, continuing to improve there. He was still third in the SAL in runs (5 behind co-leaders Jim Hicks and Adolfo Phillips), tied for second in triples (two behind leader Costen Shockley) and he again led in walks (9 ahead of runner-up Ernie Oravetz). With the 1964 Columbus Confederate Yankees, Ronnie hit .255/~.369/.307 as a backup infielder to end his baseball career. He hit .272 and slugged .361 in his six seasons in pro ball.
In 2010, he was inducted into the WVU Sports Hall of Fame.

text: Why is it that Grasshopper mowers are very seldom discussed on this sight? I very seldom here anything good or bad about them. Are the dealers that far and few between to be popular? Are they that bad that NO one owns them? From what I have seen they seems to be a well made machine with several available attachments that should make them a very verital machine to own! Personally, I prefer JD, but I have been looking at the Grasshoppers from time to time.They seem to me to be the only REAL solid front mount on the market unless if you want to go into the huge ones like JD's 1400's and the 1600 turbo wide area mowers. What is ya'lls take on the Grasshoppers?

The Pittsburgh Steelers are sending another player to Honolulu to represent the black and gold in the Pro Bowl. Safety Ryan Clark has been added to the AFC roster. He is replacing Baltimore Ravens' safety Ed Reed. This is Clark's first trip to the all-star event.
Clark was a major factor in the secondary this past season, making an impact in the running and passing game. He is often called upon to hold serve on the back end of the defense because of Troy Polamalu's play style. Troy is often up at the line of scrimmage playing the role of a hybrid linebacker. It is Clark's job to secure both sides of the field when Troy is up at the line.
He is a solid open field tackler and can bring down bigger running backs. Clark recorded 100 tackles this season, 71 of them being solo tackles. Perhaps the biggest indicator of Clark's importance to this team was the wildcard playoff loss to the Denver Broncos. Tim Tebow and Demaryius Thomas torched the Steelers' secondary all day. The game was decided on the first play of overtime when Tebow hit Thomas across the middle for an 80 yard touchdown. Thomas shed a few tackles and raced down the sidelines, ripping the heart out of Steeler nation. The result could have been dramatically different if Clark were playing, but we will never know.
The fact remains that Clark finally got the recognition he deserves. He is often overlooked around the league when people talk about Pittsburgh's defense. He isn't as well known as the James Harrisons or Polamalus of the world, but Steelers fans know that he is just as important.
