Checklist keeps heart failure patients out of hospital
CHICAGO – Forget high technology.
An old-fashioned checklist has the potential to keep patients with heart failure out of the hospital — and save Medicare billions of dollars, a small new study suggests.
The checklist aims to help ensure that patients stay healthy after discharge, instead of quickly returning to the hospital because their symptoms return or get worse, according to a study of 96 patients presented here Saturday at the American College of Cardiology's annual meeting. The list prompts doctors to make sure that patients understand when and how to take their medications, for example, and how to monitor their blood pressure and modify their diet and exercise.
All patients in the study had been admitted to the hospital for a heart problem. Researchers then randomly assigned half to go through the 27-point checklist before leaving the hospital, and half to get the usual discharge instructions.
Latest news on heart health
USA TODAY's latest coverage on matters of the heart, including the Amercian College of Caridology Conference.
Only 2% of patients whose doctors used the checklist were readmitted within a month, compared to 20% of other patients, according to the study, led by Abhijeet Basoor, from St. Joseph Mercy Oakland Hospital in Pontiac, Mich. Readmission rates continued to be much lower after six months, as well, with 23% of checklist patients returning to the hospital in that time, compared to 42% of others.
Patients whose doctors used the checklist were more likely to be taking the proper drugs for blood pressure, as well, Basoor said. Using the checklist, which incorporates advice from broadly accepted guidelines, should take only a few minutes.
"It's a reminder to do things that they should be doing anyway," Basoor said. "If they are doing these things anyway, it shouldn't add much time."
The checklist prompts doctors to make sure that patients are taking recommended medications, for example, and have been counseled to follow a low-salt diet and to watch for early warning signs that their disease is getting worse, such as leg swelling and weight gain, instead of waiting for an emergency that could send them to the emergency room, Basoor said. The checklist doesn't require that doctors provide detailed nutritional counseling, but it does prompt them to schedule a consultation with a nutritionist before patients leave the hospital. Studies show a "hospital effect," Basoor said, with patients more likely to take medications if they are prescribed in a hospital, instead of at a doctor's office.
In general, about 25% of Medicare patients with heart failure — which occurs when the heart is too weak to pump properly — are readmitted within 30 days of treatment, a problem that costs the government health plan $12 billion a year, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation. Previous studies have shown that half of these readmissions could have been prevented with better care or education.
Under the Affordable Care Act, hospitals have two years to lower their readmission rates. Those that don't could be denied some Medicare payments.
Educating patients before discharge is a critical part of care, says cardiologist Steven Nissen, of the Cleveland Clinic, who wasn't involved with the study. That's because heart failure patients often take a half-dozen drugs or more. Patients sometimes stop taking their medications, or take them irregularly, especially if the drugs don't offer any immediate symptom relief.
As few as 20% to 50% of patients prescribed a statin to lower cholesterol actually take them, says Nove Kalia of the University of Saskatchewan in Canada. Kalia presented two studies exploring ways to motivate patients to change their behavior. He showed them their coronary artery calcium scoring, an imaging test that uses a CT scanner to take pictures of the heart, which can show patients a build-up of calcium in their hearts. Very high levels of calcium increase the risk of a heart attack. Seeing those images helped patients visualize their heart disease, Kalia said. Among those with high scores, patients who saw images of their hearts were 2½ times as likely to take their statin drugs and more than three times as likely to lose weight. Most patients lost around five to 15 pounds, he said.
Seeing these images can be a "come to Jesus moment" for many patients who aren't taking their heart risks seriously, said Cam Patterson, chief of cardiology at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, who wasn't involved in the studies.
Like all CT scans, these tests expose patients to radiation. Even the cheapest versions cost hundreds of dollars, Kalia said. And while he doesn't advocate performing the scans solely to motivate lifestyle change, Kalia said it makes sense to show the pictures to patients if they've already been taken.
Checklists have virtually no costs or side effects, Nissen says.
And while checklists may seem like a simple idea, they're considered crucial in other high-risk industries, such as aviation, Nissen says. "There is a reason why pilots do a checklist before takeoff," Nissen says.
Patterson called checklists "a low-tech, innovative way to save money and take better care of patients," noting that, "Medicare and insurance companies are shining a bright light on heart failure readmission rates. We know they are a significant component of the cost of care for heart failure."
Atul Gawande, a surgeon at Boston's Brigham and Women's Hospital and author of The Checklist Manifesto, noted that the checklist study was very small, and only involved one hospital. He said he would like to see the checklist study evaluted in a peer-reviewed journal to make sure it's sound.
Peter Pronovost, a physician at Johns Hopkins University who has pioneered the use of checklists to prevent hospital infections and other complications, said making a list is only a first step. Getting hospital staff to use these kinds of standards can be a challenge. He's found that it's important for staff to be able to give feedback and for officials to measure their results. Really successful checklists can require changing an institution's culture so that doctors and others will accept these kind of suggestions from others.
Still, Gawande said, "this is extremely encouraging. … This is exactly the kind of area in which a well-designed checklist would be expected to have a dramatic impact. …They show that the benefits could be extraordinary."

Their common names include mushroom coral, elephant ear coral, false coral, disk anemone, mushroom anemone and are often linked to their coloration (e.g., green striped mushroom anemone). They are not true anemones, nor are they true corals. They are somewhere in between or, more appropriately, a comparative anatomy or a morph (although more closely related to scleractinian corals). Mushroom corals are found worldwide and most occur in shallow tropical waters.
These photosynthetic animals are probably the easiest of all corals to maintain, as most do better in nutrient-rich surroundings with low to moderate light. And with various sized and colored disc-shaped polyps, they are extremely popular with most aquarists.
Return To Order
The taxonomy information that has existed on this group of organisms has, for a long time, been confusing. Because I am not a scientist and not interested in their DNA or RNA, I have in the past accepted longstanding thoughts as to their classifications. However, recent (2003) revisions by Dr. Vincent Hargreaves have resulted in a new rearrangement of this order. It now encompasses three families (Corallimorphidae, Discosomatidae and Ricordeidae) containing nine genera with 59 species.
Dr. Hargreaves worked with the world's leading authority in this field, the late Dr. J. C. den Hartog, when beginning this revision. One of the results has been the elimination of the family names Actinodiscidae and Sideractidae. Another, among others, has been that the two genera Nectactis and Sideractis, each with a single species, has now been placed within the family Corallimorphidae. Dr. Hargreaves revisions encompassed two of the three families, with Dr. Daphne Fautin of the University of Kansas working on the third family, Corallimorphidae, which contain the genera Corallimorphus, Corynactis, Nectactis, Pseudocorynactis and Sideractis. Furthermore, the widely used word "Actinodiscus," which has been used in various aquarium magazine articles for many years, is not a valid term or name anymore.
Asexual and Sexual Reproduction
Propagation in the wild takes several forms and the various asexual methods are the most common. Budding is a term used when a new polyp develops on the stalk. It usually migrates onto adjacent substrate and quickly develops into a clone of the original specimen. Longitudinal fission is another form of multiplication and occurs when the specimen splits in half. It usually begins at the central orifice or mouth and extends across the whole surface of the disc. Another natural form of propagation is pedal or basal laceration, which are probably the most common in both the wild and aquaria. As the specimen moves over the substrate it leaves a small portion of itself attached to the substrate, which grows into a new clone of the original specimen.
Sexual reproduction also occurs when the larger female polyps, usually centrally located in the groups of some species, release eggs and are fertilized by the smaller male polyps along the outer margins of the colony. Larvae, generally produced in the May to September time frame, then crawl away from the clusters and spread to other areas.
All these forms of propagation can also occur in aquaria, except that hybrids are not able to sexually reproduce as they do not contain functional gonads (V. Hargreaves, 2005).
But if these natural methods are happening too slowly for hobbyists, they can simply cut the entire head off the polyp stalk and then cut it (i.e., the polyp disc) into pie-shaped pieces. The pieces can be placed in a shallow tray of course-grained sand where the individual pieces will attach to substrate particles and form new polyps. The cut stalk will regain its original shape, and in the coming months it will be no different than it was before the cutting.
A loose mushroom/polyp containing at least one sand grain attached to its backside can be glued with underwater glue to a rock or an aquarium side panel. I've lined the side panels of some of my aquariums with various colored mushroom corals in this fashion.
Depending upon where various mushroom coral species are collected, their colors may be more or less pronounced. Colors can range from a solid or variations of colors. Red, purple, blue, mauve and green seem to be the most popular. Even circular patterns, with green around the outer rim and a deep red inner center area, have periodically appeared on the market.
Because all contain zooxanthellae, they can produce the majority of their own foodstuffs via photosynthesis. However, some also absorb nutrients from the surrounding water and can also trap various substances and bacteria in their mucus coating where it is then moved via cilia to the central mouth area. Therefore, most do not have to be hand fed, yet iodine additives appear somewhat beneficial.
Common Mushrooms
The most popular mushrooms are found in the family Discosomatidae, genus Discosoma. There are now nine recognized species, with two others presently under investigation. There are also numerous morphs, making exact identification somewhat difficult for the average hobbyist.
They are considered the "common" mushrooms and form small flattened disc-shaped polyps that perch on the top of a short stalk. The discs are usually smooth or ribbed with occasional small bumps and are generally small, about 1 to 3 inches in diameter.
Found in a variety of colors, the purple or blue Discosoma coerulea and the reddish D. ferrugatus and mottled D. marmorata are among the favorites. Both D. coerulea and D. marmorata hail from East Africa to the Central Indo-Pacific and are found in shallow reef areas and lagoons. Discosoma ferrugatus is found from various areas in the tropical Indo-Pacific and inhabit a variety of different reef areas. In the aquarium, it seems to prefer being located in a vertical position such as on the side of a rock.
Discosoma malaccensae, D. nummiforme, D. punctata and D. striata are from various areas in the Red Sea and throughout the tropical Indo-Pacific region. And the species D. neglecta and D. sanctithomae hail from the tropical west Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean and Florida to the Bahamas.
All of these require moderate lighting and gentle water movement. They appear to utilize their own zooxanthellae to supply the majority of their nutritional needs as they have no tentacles for capturing foodstuffs. If they are given too much light or become too crowded, even though they normally live in small groups, they may detach themselves and drift throughout the aquarium, possibly ending up in an area out of sight where they may waste away.
Because these corals are mostly nonaggressive, they can live in harmony with many other similar type corals. And with many looking quite "fluorescent" under blue/actinic lighting, they make excellent and colorful additions to most reef aquariums.
Elephant Ear
The other two genera in this family — Amplexidiscus and Rhodactis — contain fewer species of major interest.
Amplexidiscus fenestrafer is the only species in this genus, and it is usually referred to as the elephant ear or giant cup mushroom. It generally gets quite large, up to 12 inches or more in diameter. They are usually solitary creatures, but they may occasionally be found in the wild in small groups and appear to only be capable of asexual reproduction. They have short stinging tentacles that are capable of capturing small fish and invertebrates. It is found in the central Indo-Pacific and inhabits turbid shallow reefs and lagoons receiving little or moderate water movement.
In aquaria, it can occasionally be fed small pieces of fresh fish, clam or shrimp flesh, which will cause it to slowly close up to form a balloon or onion shape while the tasty morsel is drawn into its central mouth area. This extremely hardy species does best under moderate light such as fluorescent lamps and prefers gentle water movement. However, it is known to be aggressive, so provide sufficient space between it and neighboring corals.
Hairy Mushrooms
There are six species in the Rhodactis genus: R. howesii, R. inchoate (usually a nice purple color), R. indosinensis, R. mussoides, R. rhodostoma and R. viridis. They are often called '"hairy mushrooms" (except for R. inchoate, which has bumpy-looking tentacles), because they have a covering of small, often branched tentacles. Rhodactis mussoides may attain 8 inches in diameter or larger, yet others grow no larger than about 4 inches.
They are found mostly from the central Indo-Pacific region and are found on reef slopes and in shallows and sometimes where the nutrient level is more concentrated, such as in bays, lagoons and boat channels. Their colors are usually brown or green, and their low cost and easy maintenance make them popular with reefkeepers.
Keep in mind all Rhodactis species are somewhat aggressive and can damage other corals they touch (except those in their own genus), and that they prefer moderate lighting and water flow, thereby making their placement in aquaria different than mushrooms in the genus Discosoma. And because most have tentacles, they can be fed small pieces of marine flesh if you wish to increase their numbers.
In the family Ricordeidae, the genus Ricordia has two members — R. florida and R. yuma — and both are commonly seen in the trade and are probably the most expensive species in this order.
These family members have bubblelike tentacles and are usually 1 to 3 inches across and have colors that range from dark green to light purple. Some have outer rings of blue, purple and/or orange, or inner circles of orange. These fairly shallow water members need strong light and swift water movement, which are requirements opposite that of the other members in this order.
Ricordia florida hails from the western Atlantic from southern Florida to Brazil, the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean, where they are found high on the reef crests where there is excellent water movement and strong light.
Ricordia yuma is an Indo-Pacific species and is usually found moderately high up on the reefs and on substrate high up in tide pools. I've found the tropical Atlantic species to be more colorful. Other differences are minimal, except that the Indo species has an upraised central mouth surrounded by a ring of tentacles. Both species are very aggressive and may injure other corals they touch. Neither requires feeding, as their zooxanthellae provide fully for their nutrition.
Final Thought
Without a doubt, these corallimorpharians are among reef hobbyists' most popular corals, because they are hardy, colorful, easy to maintain and fairly inexpensive to purchase.

Knowles faces court battle over rail interchange
Page Tools
The transport giant Patrick Corporation has vowed to fight a senior NSW minister over a four-year delay in approving a rail interchange that promised to take nearly 1000 trucks a week off suburban streets.
The case centres on whether the Minister for Infrastructure and Planning, Craig Knowles, exercised his powers properly when granting only partial permission for the rail and road terminal at Ingleburn, in Sydney's south-west.
Mr Knowles delivered his decision on Monday, just before a court-ordered deadline for him to make it was due to expire.
The determination gave Patrick approval to build only two new rail sidings to help transport more than 32,000 cars a year to the site, subject to environmental concerns.
At present, the cars are transported in a basic state to the terminal, before being detailed and then delivered to vehicle dealers.
However, Mr Knowles declined to give Patrick his blessing for another two stages of the project - considered critical - which would have allowed for freight container transport.
The expanded operation would have required a new road network, gantry cranes and a significant expansion of activity close to residential areas.
Patrick first submitted its proposal to Campbelltown council in December 2000, stressing its desire to reduce high volumes of freight traffic. It was two years before the Carr Government determined its value was high enough to qualify as a project of "state significance", requiring ministerial approval.
The project was cleared by the Department of Planning and an independent commission of inquiry, led by Kevin Cleland. It has also been supported by the Rail Infrastructure Corporation and the Sydney Ports Corporation.
Mr Cleland found the terminal expansion would remove 160 car-carrying truck movements a week between Sydney and Melbourne and another 800 container truck movements per week between Port Botany and the Macarthur region.
He reported that the strategic benefits were "significant".
"Greenhouse gas emission would [also] be reduced, as would truck traffic on the road closer to Sydney," he said.
For months after the delivery of these findings, Mr Knowles did not make a decision, prompting Patrick to lodge an action in court, compelling him to a timetable to reach a decision.
Last Thursday, Patrick obtained a four-week extension in the Land and Environment Court to consider whether Mr Knowles's eventual decision was a proper one, and is now considering a range of legal options, including a personal action.
A Patrick spokeswoman, Felicity Moffatt, said: "The determination by the minister is a refusal dressed up as a partial approval."
A spokeswoman for Mr Knowles, Kathy Connell, said the minister had a long-standing position on "where such facilities should be located, how big they should be, and how they should operate".

Hi, I've tried searching for this problem I've had, but nothing other than
the "System Idle Process" comes up.
My problem is that whenever my laptop goes idle (almost the second when the
screen saver goes on after 15 minutes), I get high CPU and disk usage. This
has happened ever since I first bought this computer, so I'm pretty sure it's
not a program I've installed. But, I've tried to turn off or change any
programs that are set to start on system idle, but it still happens.
I'm 90% sure it's nothing like spyware or a virus, because I have the latest
version of McAfee Anti-virus and Firewall, and Ad-Aware. I've tried
everything I can think of, so I'm thinking it must be something with Vista.
Any suggestions would be helpful.

Have Cat Questions? Ask a Cat Vet Online.
Is your cat an indoor only cat or allowed outside?
What kind of food is he usually fed?
Do you have other pets?
You're doing all the right things with this lucky cat - I hope his fight to make it through whatever this turns out to be is successful.
Obviously nothing beats a hands on exam and treatment, exactly like you're doing, so what I'll do is offer some of the more commonly seen things I've found over the years (I own a rescue org - and of course cats are our biggest customers).
When a cat stumbles, takes a few steps and falls over or generally seems to be off balance, a number of causes may be involved - I would expect that your vet is doing blood testing for various things such as infection, virus and so on.
When we know that a cat has a questionable background with nutrition, such as a previously feral cat (many of our rescues are born to abandoned cats and have never had good nutrition) we see this symptom as the result of deficiencies.
In other cats this can be the result of an inner ear infection or even a tumor effecting the brain stem, cerebellar regions or possibly feline ischemic neuropathy. This is sometimes a symptom related to Feline Leukemia Virus, Feline Infectious Peritonitis, etc. which are diseases that may cause central nervous system symptoms such as this.
Feline Vestibular Disorder is generally accompanied by rapid/or otherwise abnormal eye movements and is usually pretty sudden onset. With or without treatment it tends to self-resolve in less than a month. Obviously it might be something more serious (tumors, viral infections/bacterial sources, even liver problems) .
Modifying your cat's diet to better follow feline nutritional needs is important and how to do this may be surprising to you. Unfortunately, many vets don't have the background they should have when it comes to advising on feline nutrition (even if they're selling a designer brand food).
A vet who is specialized in feline nutritional needs has become determined to provide everyone the correct information without ulterior motives (no sales), including recipes for homemade options and comparisons/evaluations of cat foods - take a look here http://www.catinfo.org/
Finally, it must also be considered that the cat is suffering low blood sugar/hypoglycaemia, a blood clot or may be epileptic (though less likely). Don't you hope it's this simple? I had one little girl very recently who spent a week in the hospital for what looked like failure to thrive and after some IV fluids and balancing her electrolytes and blood sugar - she bounced right back.
The dilated pupils and rest of your description however is of much more concern.
There is also the possibility that the cat has been exposed to a toxin. It may not show up in the screening your vet has done, but treating the symptoms (as your vet is) is prudent and the right thing to do.
Finally, suggest to your vet that they measure erythrocyte transketolase activation after the addition of thiamin pyrophosphate is the standard (biochemical) test for thiamin deficiency. Some clinicians who see a large number of feral cats will know upon presentation that the cat is nutritionally deficient.
Neuro-anatomical changes when a feline suffers a B-1 deficient diet might include seizure activity, ataxia, gait disturbances and even mental retardation. Some kittens born to a deficient mother will show symptoms from the time they can walk. Often, injections or supplements of B-complex, B-1/thiamin will lead to almost immediate results (within 24 hours in many cases).
Cats who are frequently fed fish or seafood might suffer thiamine deficiency, or cats eating dog food.
Who knows what this sweetie got into ?
I hope he recovers quickly and is home soon.
God bless,

SARASOTA - An award-winning astronaut and husband of former U.S. Congresswoman Gabby Giffords is on the Suncoast today.
Mark Kelly spoke to a sold out crowd at the Van Wezel as part of the Ringling College Town Hall Series.
Kelly talked about his journey with his wife through her healing process, the future of NASA and space exploration, but his focus now is clearly on gun control and working with lawmakers to see that laws are changed.
Kelly's wife Gabby was left partially blind with a paralyzed right arm and brain injury after she was shot at constituent meet and greet outside a Tucson grocery store in January of 2011. A gunman opened fire killing 6 people at the event.
Now, Kelly is pushing lawmakers to adopt legislation requiring a universal background check for anyone buying a gun. He says he takes a moderate stance on the issue, and after all of the recent mass shootings, something must be done. "We see this time and time again, like with what happened to Gabby. The man who killed 6 of her constituents, shot her and 12 other people, clearly mentally ill, psychofrenick. The guy in Aurora it's been determined he had some sort of mental illness, so yes, mental illness is an issue, access to guns is an issue, so I think complicated problems sometimes require complicated solutions."
Tickets to tonight's lecture are still available. It starts at 7:30 at the Van Wezel.

Jerry Hodkins
November 7, 2013
Under a waning moon on Oct. 22, 2013, Gerald William Hodkins died at his home in Nevada City, surrounded by some of his biggest fans. He was 58.
Jerry was born April 13, 1955, to Myron and Anita Hodkins in Roseville, Calif. The family moved to Nevada County a year later where Jerry and his three brothers would thrive on a small ranch off of Wolf Road. They raised cattle, worked in their mother's garden, fished local ponds and creeks, hunted game and did their share of mischief-making.
While growing up, Jerry was active in 4-H and FFA and earned many awards. He received distinction for his role in numerous athletic activities in high school. After graduating from Nevada Union in 1973 he married Kristine Morrison. Over the next few years they welcomed two daughters, Natalie and Morgan. Jerry was a hardworking, devoted family man who labored at various jobs in the construction industry, including at his own business, Jerry Hodkins Drywall.
Jerry was known for his exceptional gardening skills. His trademark crops were tomatoes, garlic and pickling cucumbers. His spicy dills are legendary. Jerry enjoyed fishing, hiking, camping, skydiving and beekeeping. He was an avid reader of nonfiction, with a particular interest in ancient to modern-day military battles.
Jerry is survived by his daughter and son-in-law, Natalie and Buck Rainey; daughter and daughter-in-law, Morgan and Allison Hodkins-Smith; his wife, Candace Hansen and her children, Yuri Godwin and Coral Cunningham; their spouses Kerry Kelley and Isaac Bloch; and a grandchild, Henry Godwin, for whom Jerry acted as an unconditional surrogate parent and grandparent. Jerry is also survived by many relatives and friends – some dear, some distant – who knew and loved him.
Jerry was preceded in death by his parents and brothers Robert and Steven.
The family suggests that donations be made to Hospice of the Foothills.
For information regarding gatherings to celebrate Jerry's life, contact Candace at 265-3472 or Morgan at 273-2446.

text: In addition, Abraxas announced that it has closed on a transaction with a large independent to acquire their interests in jointly owned properties in Ward County, West Texas for $7.2 million less closing adjustments. The transaction adds approximately 240 barrels of oil equivalent production per day and proved developed producing reserves of approximately 1.2 million barrels of oil equivalent. Production and reserves are approximately 95 percent natural gas. Net acres acquired are approximately 2,345."While relatively small and natural gas, this transaction is very strategic for Abraxas as we will now own the biggest interest in all the wells and be the operator with our existing staff out of Pyote, Texas. We only paid for the PDP reserves, which have a very long life, and at a very low price deck. These properties have a significant and identified upside and by melding operations we should see a significant reduction in operating costs," commented Bob Watson.

Federal Highway Deputy Administrator
Rick Capka
Over the past year, I have taken the opportunity to meet with tribal leaders and transportation specialists from tribes in Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, and South Dakota. In addition, FHWA staff has met with tribal governments and traveled to Alaska villages in an effort to see first hand the challenges that tribes face in transportation. These visits will help us to better serve the needs of tribes around the country.
As FHWA Administrator Mary Peters and I have said so often: "Every man, woman, and child has the right to expect a safe, accessible, affordable and reliable transportation system. People living in rural areas and on Indian land should have the same quality of roads and bridges -- of transportation infrastructure -- as people living in urban areas."
Clearly that's not an easy task and tribal governments, like state and local governments, have a wide range of transportation needs and limited resources with which to meet those needs. Knowing these needs and knowing that there are new regulations for the Indian Reservation Roads program (IRR), this is a crucial time for tribal transportation. Whether it is a direct service tribe working closely with BIA, or a tribal government working to establish a transportation department and program, there is much work to be done.
FHWA's role is to support your efforts -- we will continue to work with tribal governments, continue to work with our partners at BIA, and to continue to support partnership opportunities among tribes, states, and federal agencies.
This is a critical time, not just for those in the transportation sector, but to the economy as a whole. We have had six extensions so far since TEA-21 expired a little more than a year ago. The latest extension – STEA 04-Part V – will keep the highway program running through May of 2005. Although we would hope to the contrary, it is unlikely that a multi-year bill will be completed in the near future.
Congress spent its last days before the election recess wrestling with FY05 appropriation actions, and with high profile issues such as intelligence reform and emergency relief. Whether or not a multi-year bill can be accomplished in a lame duck session later this year, or must wait until the 109th Congress, can't be predicted at this time.
We do need a multi-year bill -- one that allows states and local communities to make long-term investment plans. The Bush Administration's bill gives communities flexibility -- more say over where their highway and transit dollars go. Critical investment decisions should not be dictated from Washington, D.C. Earmarked projects and programs tie the hands of state and local officials.
Instead, we need to empower local leaders (and tribal leaders) to address local transportation needs. Our bill will allow states to better leverage their transportation dollars by taking advantage of innovative financing, such as private activity bonds, and other public-private partnership options.
For decades, FHWA has encouraged increased private sector participation in the project planning, design, construction, maintenance, and operation of highways and bridges.
The bill also supports expansion of environmental streamlining -- that means speeding the process that leads to a yes or no decision on a project. Transportation moves the U.S. economy. We need reauthorization to keep us on the right track.
The U.S. highway system is already among the safest in the world. Safety belt use continues to improve nationally from under 50 percent in 1990 to above 90 percent in some states. Much more attention is paid to drunk and drugged driving.
And yet, one of the most telling statistics I've seen in quite a while was in your invitation to this conference. Quoting a report from our sister agency, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration . . . "From 1975 to 2002, the number of fatal motor vehicle crashes that occurred within Indian reservations increased by 52.5 percent, compared to a decrease of 2.2 percent in the number of fatal crashes in the nation at large."
Transportation safety has been getting a lot of attention from tribal governments -- some good things are happening.
FHWA has approved funding for a full-time position at the Northern Plains TTAP Center, to focus on delivering safety technical information and training to tribal members within the Northern Plains area.
The "2004 Native American Transportation Safety Conference" was hosted by the Coeur d'Alene Tribe in May. Sponsored by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), FHWA, NHTSA, and Northwest and Alaska Tribal Associations and TTAP (Tribal Technical Assistance Program) centers, this three-day conference focused on Data Management, Law Enforcement, Planning, and Engineering aspects of highway safety.
FHWA and BIA are in the beginning stages of planning a national tribal safety summit in 2005.
In addition, FHWA sponsored a study in Arizona on the development of a model Tribal Highway Safety Improvement Program and we are funding a second phase of this project with the Inter Tribal Council of Arizona.
Wisconsin DOT is working on a traffic record training project for tribes. Later today in the safety track, Sherman Wright of the Rosebud Sioux Tribe will explain their Tribal Traffic Records System.
And at 8:00 a.m. tomorrow, in the elected officials track, Rudy Umbs, Chief Federal Highway Safety Engineer, will go into more detail on programs and resources that can help you save lives.
It is so important that we talk with each other and learn from each other.
FHWA has funded a project as part of the National Cooperative Highway Research Program's Synthesis project. The project will examine the state of tribal transportation programs. Synthesis topics are overseen by an expert topic panel, which meets to select the consultant, and review the consultant's work. The work begins early in November when the panel -- which is comprised mostly of tribal members who work for tribes, BIA, State DOTs, TTAP, and FHWA -- meets for the first time.
FHWA's Policy Office is starting a study to gather more information on Native American motor fuel use and is looking for the views and concerns of Native Americans with regard to reporting of motor fuel data.
In the elected officials track, right before lunch tomorrow, there will be a presentation on this study by Ralph Erickson, of our Office of Highway Policy Information. Ralph and a representative of the contractor that will carry out the survey will be available to answer questions one-on-one.
FHWA continues to fund the Four Corners Institute for Tribal/State Relations. The Institute focuses on tribal/state coordination and this year will examine the development and staffing of tribal transportation programs. I should note that Four Corners is a partnership between FHWA, the TTAP at Colorado State University, and the New Mexico DOT, and we look forward to continuing this partnership.
Collaborative partnerships among these national stakeholders ensure that the American people get the best return on their investment -- that we maintain a safe, secure and efficient transportation system. An example of partnerships and intergovernmental relationships are the meetings and conferences on transportation that continue to take place between states and tribal governments. Minnesota and Washington have recently had Tribal/State meetings. Similar conferences are being planned in New Mexico and Wisconsin.
As I mentioned earlier, I had an opportunity to meet with tribal leaders and transportation staff this summer in Montana. The meeting included tribal, state, FHWA, and BIA staff.
And this bears repeating: the most important thing FHWA can do is to make sure tribal governments are active participants and partners in our programs. To make transportation better, we need everyone to participate.
FHWA will continue to work with local and tribal governments, LTAP and TTAP centers, and states to share our experience and expertise. Transportation moves America. We all gain from cooperative efforts.


text: In summary, we've averaged $1.30 per gallon gross margin and with the project operating expense of $0.55 per gallon; dynamic fuels would have achieved a cash margin of $0.75 per gallon or $56 million a year at design capacity. There remains considerable revenue upside.Our diesel price doing commissioning and start-up averaged $5.55 per gallon. During the same period the average full value of renewable diesel, which is calculated the sum of ULSD diesel price plus RIN plus a dollar subsidy was $6.01 per gallon. As we continue to improve plant reliability, we would expect to close the differential between our current sales price and full value of renewable diesel. During the 10 months of operation, our non-diesel price component of production averaged $1.68 a gallon versus a petroleum equivalent of $2.03. This discount again was primarily due to commissioning volatilities. Finally, we expect to receive 1.5 advanced bio-fuel or D5 RINs per gallon for our renewable naphtha. Advanced bio-fuel RINs has averaged $0.61 per RIN for the first six months of this year and currently trade at $0.84 per gallon. We have applied the EPA for advanced bio-fuel naphtha RINs and expect approval in the fourth quarter. If we had received full market value for our products and naphtha RINs during the prior 10 months, our average revenue per gallon would have been $5.48 versus $4.98 or an improvement of $0.50. The fundamentals of the renewable diesel market remain strong. Renewable Fuel Standard or RFS was created by Congress in 2007 to stimulate the adoption of renewable fuels in the United States. In 2010, EPA adopted the second generation of RFS know as RFS2, which was implemented in July 2010. Since its introduction, RFS2 remains the primary tool to create bio-fuels demand in the U.S. Read the rest of this transcript for free on seekingalpha.com

Tried playing with WinISD for the first time.
Cool stuff. I hope I am entering information correctly for new drivers.
Just to make sure I am doing things correctly, can someone just confirm two calculations.
1. For the Dayton RSS460HO-4 18"
Sealed cab volume 130.3 litres to achieve Qtc of 0.71.
2. For the Fi q18D2
Sealed cab volume of 109.9 liters to achieve Qtc of 0.71.
Does these numbers sound right?
You are guys are right about the ported though, can get very flat response down to 20 hz without any need for eq based on the sims, but I am worried about phase etc, and this being my first attempt, maybe sealed would be easier.
BTW, how does filling/insulation affect the cabinet. Does the WinISD sim assume a bare braced cabinet, or stuffed - and if so, with what?
The Fi is more expensive. Can get two Daytons within my budget - now expanded budget.

As you can see, the equalized TH is perfectly in phase with the delayed sealed top cabinets at the crossover point, you can still guess at the crossover frequency if you would like.
Furthermore, the ported cabinet can be matched to a sealed or ported top cabinet, as can the sealed cabinet.
Not sure what you mean by "LRC", but there are certainly many ways to achieve an integrated phase response at the crossover point, I'll take your word that "LRC" is one of them.
IIRC, the TH used a LR24 filter, while the sealed top cabinets use a BW24 to achieve the smooth phase response.
Headphones that can produce decent levels at 15 Hz must be closed, and therefore attenuate outside noise by some degree, making it easier to hear the LF tone.
Perhaps you should measure the SPL at 15 Hz required for you to hear your sub, likely it is around 90 dB SPL in a quiet environment.
However, 90 dB at 15 Hz only sounds about as loud as 25-30 dB at 1000 Hz, and unless you live in a dead quiet house, the ambient noise level may be above that, requiring a louder level.

I dont have a driver file for the Dayton, if I get time I'll plug in the numbers later and have a look.
Stuffing helps make the sub sound deeper without the need to make the cabinet larger to achieve the same thing. It can also help dampen any resonances inside the cab.

I sold all my AV about a year ago due to moving country, and the recession has prevented its replacement, so I cant currently do any testing of my own unfortunately.

Are you going to cross this to your mains with 1st order filters, and time correct the mains to the subs? Because that will make a much bigger difference in perceived transient response, especially in the midbass.
You can model parametric EQ's and filters in winisd, and you'll see that these also have a major impact on phase and group delay.
Do not be afraid of ported boxes. When built well (stiff, damp box - internally coated plywood), with a proper sized flared port(s) and a low tune, they sound just as good as a sealed box and are more efficient. They key is to have a mildly sloping response that blends with your room but still gives you a bit of "house curve", and to EQ out any room nodes.

Bugged that I wasn't able to play with WinISD before leaving from work today. I really have to get a windows installed on my macs at home. This sucks.
I really hadn't given the crossover or time correction any thought! I guess this is a good time.
My mains would be powered bookshelves with balanced XLR or single ended RCA inputs They are fairly flat till 40 Hz.
Not sure how to do this, or what I need. I believe the Inuke DSP amps have crossover functionality (and time correction?), but they only have a single pair of outputs, which will go to the sub, and no line level outputs for high pass. I guess I have to either 1) run the speakers in parallel, or 2)place a crossover after the signal leaves the preamp dividing the signal between the mains and the inuke.
The advantage of #1 is that I can dedicate a high pass crossover to the mains, and let the inuke take care of the sub (basically each unit has its own filter); the advantage of #2 is simple single crossover. Does that even make sense?
I have no idea how this may pan out - or what all this really entails. This is really giving me the newbie blues!
Any ideas of where to start?
Turbodawg, I think you are right. In the perfect listening room, the argument may be valid that sealed is truly better, but in real world, common living room, a well made ported is definitely more useful. I agree. I like the idea of efficiency, but I don't know why I am still skittish of getting the tuning right in a ported sub. I really feel like I don't know what I am doing, and the learning curve is so steep, I am scared that once built, if I don't like it, it will be the end of DIY form me.
I am hoping that with running stereo subs, with real inroom reflections, a sealed sub will not require too much Eq and a single stereo inuke 6000 will be ok. I am hoping...
But for project # 2... ported experiment for sure!

Would miniDSP be worth the investment? approx $125 for the balanced version.
It would be line (low level).

However, to properly integrate the subs to the mains, some measurement must be undertaken.
Most dismissals of various sub designs are due to lack of actual measurement, a requirement to achieve the best response.

I think I have settled on the idea of two sealed subs, each with the 18" Dayton reference sub.
The more I have read, the more I realized, the importance of measuring and correct EQ - phase, timing, and the right amount of boost for my room - and know that I will need quality DSP. My DAC/preamp is awesome with >120dB S/N ratio, and I really want to try and preserve the quality at least until my amps/mains.
I am still very confused with what to power the subs with and how to DSP. I thought I was settled on the inuke6000DSP - until I kept reading...
The Behringers come in 5 "flavors". And I still can't seem to find what a significant difference in these amps - other than the obvious inukeDSP having the DSP.
iNuke - not considering.
INukeDSP - has DSP
Europower EP - best deal.
Europower EPQ - not considering.
Europower EPX - nice, but relatively expensive.
Does anyone have any experience for the above amps - their differences?
I was contemplating b/w iNuke 6000DSP for $450, vs the EP4000 for $280, along with a miniDSP for $125. That deal on the EP4000 is unbelievable - if the amp will serve the purpose that is. The Europower amps seem to have better power stats and damping than the iNukes. The EPX is relatively expensive (EPX 4800 is $400 - without DSP) and therefore was not on my "short list" - should it be?
There seems to be an advantage to me of using a miniDSP is that it will serve as a line level HPF for my mains as well, and I can phase/time adjust the subs/mains all in one place. The S/N for it isn't that hot though. I could simply run my mains full range, and crossover the sub even lower - about 40Hz if using the iNuke option - but that will be a waste to me as far as offloading the mains LF to the sub. I was hoping to crossover b/w 60-80.
What I didn't like about the iNuke DSP is that there is no HPF for the mains at line level.
Any other suggestions, thoughts? Could I just get a cheap passive line level HPF for the mains? How would I time/phase adjust the DSP in the iNuke if the mains are not connected to it? Maybe I don't quite understand how this all works.
I could go for the higher end miniDSP - but even with the great deal on the EP4000 I am pushing well above $1000 system cost - but will be forced to consider it if there is a consensus that it is necessary for my goals.
Secondly, regarding the cabinets, is there an advantage to work with certain woods, or can I just go to the local Curtis Lumbar, and pick up some nice looking wood and stains.
Thirdly, when ordering the subs, (and amps), what other hardware, should I get? If using >1" baffle, will the standard screws be good enough, or is there value in using bolts?
Lastly, if I am running dual subs in this configuration, what q should I be shooting for in WinISD to measure out the cabinet size. As suggested by Moonfly, I should keep it below 0.7 due to room, and dual sub influence (see post 93), but question if how low - 0.6?
Thanks for all your help so far.
I really want to place my order and get cracking on this!

Amur Minerals (LON:AMC) has doubled its drill capacity to speed up exploration of the Kun Manie nickel deposit in Russia.
The aim is to complete a definitive feasibility study at the site as rapidly as possible, it said.
In line with that, it intends to drill 15,000 metres this year, an amoutn that would be the most it has ever managed in a single five month field season.
So far it has drilled 37,443m in total at the deposit in Far East Russia. The new programme will target the Maly Kurumkon/Flangovy and Kubuk zones with drill spots selected in collaboration with consultant SRK.
Robin Young, chief executive, said the decision to double Amur's drilling and earth moving abilities demonstrates the explorer's confidence.
"We fully intend to advance the Definitive Feasibility Study as rapidly as possible.
"Importantly, we have the financial resources to implement our strategy and remain on track, going against the current trend of the mining industry."

Garden of the Gods - Pictures of Spectacular City Park in Colorado Springs
Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, Colorado
Garden of the Gods
It would be almost impossible to miss seeing the spectacular Garden of the Gods city park if one ever travels to the lovely City of Colorado Springs, Colorado.
The reason for this is that it is a large park with over 1,300 acres situated near the base of the towering Pikes Peak, a mountain with an elevation of 14,100 feet which overlooks the city. One's eye would normally be drawn to that "purple mountain" majesty and what sits near its base.
Not only is the Garden of the Gods a sizable city park, but it is stunningly beautiful with striking red sandstone formations that were seemingly thrust up from the earth in distinctive and unusual patterns considering the topography of the surrounding area.

Colorado Vacation
My mother and I got to spend eleven wonderful sightseeing days exploring what we could of Colorado in that length of time in July of 1999. We started our vacation in Colorado Springs after flying there from Houston and we could see the Garden of the Gods from the air.
Naturally we wanted to see and experience Garden of the Gods up close. After leaving the airport with our rental car we drove through this magnificent area and were later to return to see more of the park on a guided tour.
Neither of us enjoyed this first rental car and we returned it in exchange for a Lincoln Continental Towne Car the next day for the balance of our trip in Colorado. It was a little hard for my mother to get in and out of the SUV because of her stature and we were both used to riding in sedans.

Charles Elliott Perkins
The Perkins family came from a long line of distinguished and accomplished businessmen who accumulated great wealth.
Among his other accomplishments, Mr. C.M. Perkins was a Director of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad and he was also a Director of Bell Telephone Company.
Charles Elliott Perkins had originally purchased a portion of land in Colorado Springs consisting of what is now known as Garden of the Gods for the possible location of a summer home.
Instead of building anything man-made there, he appreciated the land for what it bore...natural beauty.
He had already opened it up to the public for enjoyment of this space and acquired even more of the adjacent land.
His children knew his intent and after his death they generously donated this land consisting of 480 acres to the City of Colorado Springs in 1909 with the stipulation that it would always remain open and free of charge to the public.
Additional surrounding lands were subsequently added making Garden of the Gods the city park that is enjoyed daily by countless residents and tourists to this fine city.

Bighorn Sheep in Garden of the Gods
I always like having souvenirs of our travels. What better way to decorate a gift package or Christmas tree than with an ornament like this?
This Garden of the Gods City Park offers so much by way of not only stunning beauty but also entertainment depending upon one's willingness or ability to participate.
It is a genuine playground of sorts!
One can simply stroll the paths winding through the various formations and sit and watch the shadows dance off of the rocks, trees and vegetation native to that area.
It would be a perfect spot for meditation on some of those trails in the park.
Watch for chirping birds of various species resting on branches in the trees or colorful butterflies tasting the nectar of flowering plants.
There is a wide diversity of plant-life as well as animal life native to this area.
Fossils have been found here which indicate marine life in the past and even one type of dinosaur whose remains have been identified.
Whether one is merely a walker who likes to stay on fairly level ground or one who likes mountain hiking, one's desires can be satisfied in the Garden of the Gods.
Rock climbers have fun in this park.
One is likely to see bikers enjoying the paths throughout the park and horseback riding is also allowed.
For those with little time, just driving on the roads through the park gives one glimpses of areas where one might like to come back and explore at greater length with a little more time to spare.
Few cities have parks this distinctive and beautiful in their midst that can be accessed in all sorts of ways and are also totally free of charge.

Rock Climbing
My mother and I actually did see some professional rock climbing taking place in the Garden of the Gods in addition to the normal type of scrambling over rocks by children and adults.
In order to scale those heights, one must have the proper equipment and permit and climb with a buddy on established routes. One can also hire professional rock climbing guides to assist one in this type of effort if a novice climber.
The video to the right shows some of the fun had by these adventurous folks in Garden of the Gods Park.

Visitor Center and Nature Center
The two photos below were taken one day on a narrated bus tour of the park. My mother and I had stopped in to the Visitors Center and had taken the time to look at the displays of minerals, plant-life and learned about local wildlife, geology and more. One can watch a movie in this location and become better educated regarding all of the history of this area. I would highly recommend doing this!
Seen below is the Balanced Rock...a notable subject for the snapping of pictures!

Program aids Armstrong's homeless
Armstrong County officials plan to fight homelessness in the area with state housing funds.
The Community Action Agency of Armstrong County applied for $310,000 in Emergency Solution Grant funding from the state Department of Community and Economic Development, which will be used over two years.
The funding is used to provide shelter to the homeless and assistance to low-income residents who could lose or be evicted from their homes, said Kim Pivetta, director of community action's emergency housing.
"The homeless aren't necessarily seen in Armstrong County, but they are here," Pivetta said. "We frequently handle calls from 911, churches or other agencies helping people who don't have any place to go. We try to help them with housing."
The grant will assist anyone making 30 percent or less of their area's median income, Pivetta said. For example, if an area's median income is $30,000 per year, an applicant can make no more than about $9,000 annually.
Ken Heilman, director of the Community Action Agency of Armstrong County, said officials expect to receive the grant in November.
Community Action serves about 55 people each month with temporary shelter, rent or mortgage assistance, Pivetta said.
"This will be a big help to the homeless or near-homeless in Armstrong County," Heilman said.

It remains unknown whether the men will give evidence to the inquest, such as via a video link.
Peaches Geldof died of a heroin overdose,an inquest heard today.
Now that one has, Lagarde's French lawyer is saying the inquest is "in no way incompatible" with her job at the IMF.
It is going to be very important for public confidence that the inquest is as transparent as possible.
But once the national sadness lifts, the inquest will begin.
A coroner's inquest was accordingly held upon the body, and a verdict of "Found dead" returned.
It was with unusual relish that he read the account of an inquest on himself.
In the second, several newspapers reported the child as dead, though the records of the inquest soon corrected that error.
"Seal it up and put it away in your safe till the inquest tomorrow," he said.
If possible, I should induce him to have Mrs. Pattmore's body exhumed and an inquest held upon it.
late 13c., an-queste "legal or judicial inquiry," from Old French enqueste "inquiry," from Vulgar Latin *inquaestia (cf. Italian inchiesta), from fem. past participle of Vulgar Latin *inquirere "inquire" (see inquire).

The Symptom: Body Aches
What it means: More common with the flu, allover aches are a sign your body is releasing chemicals that help your white blood cells fight off infection.
When to worry: Only if the aches are incapacitating, which is rarely the case with a cold or the flu.
Home remedies: Get plenty of rest, and take warm baths to soothe your muscles―or try using a heating pad or a heated water bottle.
Over-the-counter remedies: Acetaminophen or ibuprofen will relieve the pain.

The Truth About Fats
Not all fats are equal. Learn which ones actually boost your health!
By John Casey
Reviewed By Charlotte E. Grayson, MD
For years, fat has been the bogeyman of bad health. Increasingly, however, research is showing that not all fats are equal. Some oils and fatty foods contain chemicals called essential fatty acids, which our bodies need for good health. How do you know the difference between good fats and bad fats? Read on!
"We've had such emphasis on eating low-fat foods," says Patricia Kendall, PhD, RD, a professor at the Colorado State University Cooperative Extension Office. "But all these new studies on oils and high-fat foods like nuts and cold-water fish show we've been ignoring how much we need certain fats."
The two essential fatty acids most important to good health are omega-3 and omega-6. But we need these in the right balance in order to protect our hearts, joints, pancreas, mood stability, and skin.
Unfortunately, we eat way too much omega-6, which is found in the corn oil and vegetable oils used in so much American food. Too much omega 6 can raise your blood pressure, lead to blood clots that can cause heart attack and stroke, and cause your body to retain water.
We don't eat nearly enough omega-3, which can reduce our risk for heart disease and cancer. Omega-3 is found in fish and fish oil, all green leafy vegetables, flax seed, hemp, and walnuts.
How Much Fat Do You Really Need?
