The issue I am having that is making me wonder if once again this isn't going to work out is that yesterday (2/25) was the last day of my billing cycle and thus should have been my last day on the 900 minute plan. Today (2/26) is the first day of my new billing cycle and I received an email stating that my plan has changed to the 450 minute plan, which theoretically is what I want.All is good, this is exactly what you want. However, when I log into my verizon it says that I am over my 450 minutes, so I am wondering if it just hasn't been updated or if I am now going to get hit with a bill for all the minutes I went over 450. Thoughts? The information online will "freeze" for a day or two at the end of your billing cycle while your bill is generated. You are seeing last cycle's numbers. In a day or two, the new cycle will show, with the correct info. Patience!! If it still does not show when your minutes have reset, call. But I think you will find it will be reset to the corrrect info in a day or two.
Also, is there a better way to do this that I am missing. I only gover over my 450 plan a few times a year so it is not worth it to jut be a part of the 900 minute plan, however the few times I do it seems like such a nightmare to switch between plans bc someone I always end up getting *******. What you are doing is a legitimate way....when you increase you minutes to higher allowance, BACKDATE to cover overages. When you decrease minutes, FORWARD DATE to avoid overages... as to if it is the BEST, you will have to determine that.
If you feel it is too much of a hassle (though changeing it online has become much simpler and clear, to me, than it used to be) then is it worth the extra $10 or $20 for the higher allowance on the months you don't go over? Or worthpaying the overage charges ont he months you do? Only you can decide which option is going to work best for you.

The community owes its existence to its location on the Richmond Road midway between Richmond Landing near Bytown (now Ottawa) and the military settlement at Richmond, at the junction with the concession road leading west to the Hazeldean neighbourhood in neighbouring Goulbourn Township. It was also the junction between Richmond Road and the "base line" which was the boundary road between concessions on the Ottawa front and those on the Rideau front. Hence, the plural "Corners". It was named after Hugh Bell, who owned a tavern on the site of the present day Bells Corners Public School from 1834 to 1863.
Prior to that it was known locally as just "the Corners", but when the first post office opened on August 6, 1851 it had to adopt a formal name and became Bell's Corners. Today it is most commonly spelled without the apostrophe.
In 1832, there were 9 taverns along this strip of road. Early stores catered to both local people and travelers.
In 1841 the Carleton County Agricultural Society was formed and held its annual exhibition in Bells Corners until 1895, when it was moved to Goodwood Park in the Town of Richmond and later became the Richmond Fair.
In 1850, Bells Corners became part of Nepean Township, Carleton County. The Town meeting to elect the first Council under the new system was held at Bells Corners on 7 January 1850. Frederick Bearman, J.P., Chester Chapman, James Spain, John Robertson, J.P., Michael Grady were elected as Councillors. The first Council meeting was also held in Bells Corners on 21 January 1850, when Colonel Frederick Bearman was chosen Reeve. By 1852, there were 3 taverns, 3 shoe shops, 2 blacksmiths, 2 carpentry shops, a new store, and a tailor.
The Canada Directory for 1857-58 listed the population of Bells Corners at about 70. It listed the following people:
By 1866/7 Bells Corners was a post village with a population of 150 in the township of Nepean, county of Carleton, on the Ottawa and Nepean Macadamized road, 10 miles from Ottawa. The village had a daily mail, two stores, a school and a church which was used by the Church of England, Presbyterians, and Wesleyan Methodists. The early citizens included: Adam Abbott, a general merchant; Hugh I Bell, a farmer; George Arnold, a postmaster; E. Brown, a bailiff 7th Division Court; and William Brownlee, a general merchant boot & shoemaker.
In 1866, the 43rd Battalion of Infantry (otherwise known as the Carleton Blazers) was formed in Bells Corners with companies in many of the surrounding communities and absorbed Ottawa's volunteer rifle company.
By 1869, Bell's Corners was on the stage line from Town Ottawa to Perth. That directory listed the following indivduals:
Most of Bells Corners was destroyed by fire in August 1870.
The oldest buildings in Bells Corners are the East India Company restaurant and conference centre, formerly Hartin's Hotel, built after the fire in 1870 on the site of Robert Malcomson's Tavern (David Hartin was married to Robert Malcomson's daughter Sarah); and, The Spa which occupies the old Drummond Methodist Church built in 1898. This church used stone from the old Union Church (now the site of the Bells Corners Union Cemetery on Old Richmond Road) built in 1853 and the only building in Bells Corners to survive the fire of 1870.
Some notable residents of the time:
Postmasters of Bell's Corners
The post office was closed on February 1, 1963 when it became the Bells Corners substation (now Postal Station H) of the Nepean Post Office.
Campbell's Quarry
On the north side of Robertson Road between Bells Corners and Hazeldean was the first of several Nepean sandstone quarries from which rock was taken for the exterior of the parliament buildings, Confederation Building, Connaught Building and what is now the Canadian Museum of Nature. It can be seen also in many smaller buildings throughout the city. Dick Williams, a Welshman who came to Canada in 1902, opened a small quarry in the Nepean formation on the farm of his father-in-law on lot 3, concession II, Ottawa front. The two began making paving stones in 1912 and in 1916 they were joined by a young Scot, Archie Campbell, a recently apprenticed quarryman. The quarry eventually became known as Campbell's Quarry. Contracts were signed with seven different quarries, but the bulk of the stone for the Centre Block and the Peace Tower came from Campbell's Quarry. According to Campbell "Our first order came from Peter Lyall Construction Company for 1,000 tons of sandstone all for the Parliament Buildings. When we got the parliament job there were several hundred men on the job and they just gobbled up the stone. We couldn't get the stone out fast enough ... Stone was hauled up to the building site by teams of horses, struggling along poor roads with six ton loads. Each team could make but one trip a day." The quarry continued operation under various owners until September 1962, when the National Capital Commission expropriated the land for part of Ottawa's Greenbelt. Natural Resources Canada offices, laboratories and experimental sites now occupy the quarry and surrounding property. The workings of the quarry are reported to still be intact as they were when surveyed by Alice Wilson in the mid 1950s however the area is not open to the general public.
The Central Canada Railway was chartered to run from the Brockville and Ottawa Railway at Carleton Place through Bells Corners to Bytown. This line opened on 15 September 1870. This was a broad gauge rail line and but was converted to standard gauge in 1880. It was leased and then taken over by the Canadian Pacific Railway on 6 June 1881. The Bells Corners Station was located to the northwest of the community approximately where Fitzgerald Road is now located. In 1915, Canadian Northern Railway (later Canadian National) built its mainline from Ottawa to Brent, Ontario just to the northeast of the community and an overpass was built east of Moodie Drive where the two competing rail lines crossed.
On February 28, 1957 a Canadian National Continental train hit a tractor trailer at a Bells Corners crossing derailing two diesel units and ten passenger cars. There were only minor injuries to three persons on the train.
The junction between the two rail lines, Bells Junction, was not installed until July 29, 1966. On August 28, 1967 at 12:00 noon, CP Rail abandoned what was then known as the Carleton Place Subdivision between McRae Avenue in Ottawa and Bells Junction. The remaining portion westward from the junction then became the Carleton Spur. The spur was also abandoned in 1982 and is now a part of the Trans Canada Trail from Fitzgerald Road to Carleton Place.
The CN line continues to exist only as far as Pembroke and is known as the Beachburg Subdivision. However, CN has announced plans to abandon this line west of Bells Junction as well and, in fact, has begun removing the tracks through the town of Renfrew. This line also served a portion of the Pontiac region in west Quebec. Ottawa Central Railway operated a short line providing freight service on this track from 1998 to 2008 when it was bought out by CN.
Transformation from a post village to a suburban neighbourhood of Ottawa
In 1950, Ottawa annexed the main urban areas of Nepean Township including Westboro, where the town offices were located. A new town hall was then built in Bells Corners at the intersection of Richmond (now Old Richmond Road) and Robertson Roads where Arnold's General Store had been, which was used from 1966 to the late 1980s, when a new Nepean city hall was built at Centrepointe. The City of Nepean was finally amalgamated with 10 other municipalities into the City of Ottawa in 2001.

Research Tips
The primary source for basic documents (vital statistics, land records, wills) for people who lived in the Province of Ontario is the Archives of Ontario, 134 Ian Macdonald Blvd, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M7A 2C5.
Early Records
Civil registration did not begin in the province until 1869. Before then there may be church records of baptisms and burials. For the most part these are still held by the denomination who recorded them. Copies of marriage records made pre-1869 had to be sent by individual clergymen to the registrar of the county in which the marriage took place. These marriage records are available through Ontario Archives, on micorfilm through LDS libraries, and on paid and unpaid websites, but because they were copied at the registrars' offices, they cannot be considered a primary source.
Vital Records after 1869
Birth, marriage and death registrations are not open to the public until a specific number of years after the event occurred. Births to 1915 are now available [October 2014]; dates for marriages and deaths are later. Birth and death registration was not universally carried out in the early years after its adoption. Deaths were more apt to be reported than births for several years. The more rural the area, the less likely it would be that these happenings were reported to the authorities.
Land Records and Wills
Information on how to access land records and wills is best sought on the Archives of Ontario website. An ancestor's land holding might be found on Canadian County Atlas Digital Project if he was in occupancy circa 1878.
Association for the Preservation of Ontario Land Registry Office Documents (APOLROD). A list of Land Registry Offices for all Counties of Ontario.
The original censuses are in the hands of Library and Archives Canada, known to Canadians as "LAC". Copies of original microfilms are online at the LAC website for all censuses up to 1911. Each census database is preceded with an explanation of the geographical area covered, the amount of material retained (some census division material has been lost), the questions on the census form, and whether there is a name index. Census divisions were redrawn as the population increased and more land was inhabited. The 1921 census is only available through Ancestry.ca, but it is free-to-view.

Researching in Eastern Ontario
The website of the Ottawa Branch of the Ontario Genealogical Society offers a number of search engines for databases of material they maintain:
The Society covers the counties of Carleton (combined with the city of Ottawa), Lanark, Renfrew, Prescott and Russell. There is a note on the website that the URL will be changing soon (Jun 2012). It may be best to "google" the Ottawa Branch of OGS.

Sandra Simonds on Elective Affinities
New content from poet Sandra Simonds is up on Carlos Soto Roman's Elective Affinities! Here she lists poets with whom she feels an affinity (it does go on, and includes Anne Boyer, Will Alexander, Arthur Rimbaud, Paul Celan, Sylvia Plath, Joshua Clover, Brandon Brown, Jasper Bernes, Josef Kaplan, Charles Baudelaire, Bob Kaufman, Langston Hughes, Anne Sexton, Jean Toomer, Chris Nealon, Harryette Mullen, Alice Notley, Cathy Wagner, and David Lau, among others); a statement of poetics, and a sample poem. We're glad to bear with her:
I have very high expectations for poems so please bear with me. I tend to like poems with energy, emotion, imagination, vivacity, humor, and speed. I'm not into slow poetry. On top of all of that, I also like poems that use a strong voice to engage with the complexities of the political, historical, cultural, and social. The poems I read that give me the most pleasure have an overwhelming desire to see some sort of utopic horizon—poems that could write our future even though, given our current conditions as wage-laborers, this may be impossible. I like poems that set fire to the world we have now—those poems give me joy!—I also like it when poems are not self-satisfied—I like poems that try really hard—I like poems that are puzzles that I cannot solve. I like poems that are full of secret codes. I like poems that are begging to be heard. I like poems that don't care about me as a reader. I like it when poets try and fail. I like poems that never got permission from anyone to be written. I like failure. I like how Rimbaud is a kind of apocalyptic thinker. The impossible gives me pleasure. Anything worth anything in a poem is totally impossible.

A Fork on the Road Podcast Interview
Recently I was interviewed by the very funny Mark DeCarlo and his equally charming wife, Yeni Alvarez DeCarlo, aka The Traveling Diva, for their informative podcast A Fork on the Road (Episode #22). In the interview we discuss a variety of travel photography tips, travel to Cuba via People-to-People programs and the all important issue of how to create a well-rounded set of images that keeps the attention of the viewers of your photography (Hint: work from a shot list).
Mark is a 3-time Emmy® award-winning TV host, author, comedian and on air personality of the very popular Windy City Live on ABC7 in Chicago. Yeni is a culinary travel consultant who is originally from Cuba.
Both being from Chicago, Mark and I became fast friends when we first met as fellow speakers at the Travel & Adventure Show in Santa Clara, California, where I was speaking about travel photography and Mark was the host of the Fiery Foods stage at the show.

EMERGENCY services are warning people in South Gloucestershire to stay off the roads.
As snow continues to fall across the region, Avon and Somerset police is advising motorists, in particular HGV drivers, to avoid making journeys unless absolutely necessary.
Between ten and 15cm of snow is expected to fall by the end of today.
An Avon and Somerset police spokesman said: "While there have been no major incidents on the roads in Avon and Somerset we are advising to stay indoors.
"If you do have to drive, we suggest you slow down and brake, steer and change gear as smoothly as possible to avoid skidding.
"Make sure your windscreen is clear and your lights clean and working properly. Check your tyre pressure and your radiator antifreeze levels. It's probably a good idea to carry de-icer, food, a hot flask, a blanket and a shovel as well."
He added: "Think ahead. Tune in to local radio for weather and travel reports, plan your route, leave extra time for your journey and, if you're in doubt - then don't set out."

It's down to summer crunch time, which means it's time to squeeze in all the last goodbyes you have to make before leaving for school. I'm always fond of the family brunch right before leaving home for the start of your fall semester.
Brunch is always a great bonding time, as well as, a wonderful way to start your day. To me, brunch has such a feminine touch to it. When dressing for the occasion, I suggest you choose an ensemble with hints of feminine tones. This could mean a skater skirt, floral patterns, a statement necklace or a dainty headband.
Brunch also requires you to get up and get ready fairly fast, so choose a quick and simple outfit. Instead of overloading on your accessories, choose a minimal outfit. This creates a clean and simple ensemble that still looks adorable and polished.
I love what this Fashionista chose to wear to her brunch. She wore a denim tank top that had darling embroidered details, a pair of harem pants, sandals with a slight wedge and a charming gold floral headband. Her overall look was very minimal yet feminine. Her neutral tones were pulled together by the gold accents found in her headband and bracelets. This outfit is quick, simple and easy. With the floral headband as the finishing touch, her outfit appeared feminine, flirty and perfect for her last bit of summer.
One Simple Change: Since this Fashionista may be on the road soon for school this outfit needs to transform into the perfect travel ensemble. Switch out the sandals for a fun pair of sneakers so your feet can be comfortable. Next, throw on an oversized shirt so you have room to move and then you're done! This outfit becomes a comfortable and relaxing ensemble that can withstand any sort of travel.

Mariano Rivera got a lot of great gifts in his farewell tour last season for the New York Yankees. Now, it's Derek Jeter's turn to get the gifts from teams in his farewell tour around Major League Baseball in 2014.
#Angels honor Derek Jeter with a true Californian farewell gift #AtTheBigA! #BonVoyageCaptain#FarewellCaptain#Halospic.twitter.com/A4FmESmiyZ— Los Angeles Angels (@Angels) May 8, 2014
Just before Wednesday night's series finale at Angels Stadium between the Yankees and Los Angeles Angels, Albert Pujols, Mike Trout, Howie Kendrick and Jered Weaver participated in a pre-game ceremony to honor Jeter with a farewell gift from the organization, which was a really tall and gigantic paddleboard. In the picture from the Angels Twitter account, Kendrick is seen holding the large paddle to go along with the paddleboard.
The paddleboard will be just one of the many gifts that teams around the league will be giving the Yankees captain during the year. Last season, the Minnesota Twins got creative for Rivera, as they took some of the shattered bats that he created from his cutter and were able to make a rocking chair out of the bats.
In the game, Jeter hit his first home run of the game, a solo shot off left-handed starter Hector Santiago which put the Yankees up 6-0 in the top of the second inning.

What? It's October you say. I don't believe you. How is it already fall?? Leaves changing color and fresh produce diminishing by the day. I don't believe it but it's here. It took me by surprise this year. Fall is by far my favorite time of year but this year I just didn't feel ready for it. I've so enjoyed summer days, farmers market strolling, and waving out our picnic blanket after a long walks in the park. But I'll quickly get adjusted to the idea of fall I'm sure… maybe light an apple spice candle, throw some pumpkin bread in the oven and harvest my acorn squash for some of my favorite fall squash meals (this, this or this – can you tell I love squash?!). Fall is here and I'll embrace it- cozy sweaters and hearty stews– all of it.
Every October my husband and I participate in October Unprocessed where we go further out of our way to only eat unprocessed foods. It's a month of cleansing our bodies and making new, good eating habits. Though, after a few years of doing this, I think we pretty much eat mostly unprocessed all year around, in October we try not to bend the rules was much.
This month I'll be sharing several unprocessed recipes with you.I hope to make and photograph for you my perfected whole wheat english muffin recipe, homemade ricotta cheese and some unprocessed slow cooker and blender recipes as well. Unprocessed recipes can be simple, using fresh produce and a shorter list of ingredients but it does require more time as most of what we eat is made from scratch- from bread to cereal. And I'll do it all in my cosy fall sweater with a mug of warmed homemade pecan milk in hand. If you're taking the pledge for October Unprocessed as well, check out my full post from last year on ideas for eating unprocessed and my pinterest board for unprocessed recipes. Here is a simple definition of unprocessed food:
"Unprocessed food is any food that could be made by a person with reasonable skill in a home kitchen with readily available, whole-food ingredients." – Andrew Wilder.
View the Eating Rules website for the full pledge and lots of information on eating unprocessed. An easy way to eat unprocessed it to eat what's fresh and in season. Check out these websites for more seasonal recipes this month:
The the top image is for your desktop computer to use as a reminder to eat what's fresh this month. The photo below is for your phone. And don't forget to tag your seasonal food instagrams with #eatseasonal. I'm looking forward to seeing more inspirational foods this month! We'll regram our favorites every Monday (or occasionally Tuesday)!

City looking at $1.25 million surplus from 2013
Preliminary year-end numbers show spending, revenues higher than expected
Saturday, Feb 15, 2014 06:00 am
Preliminary numbers show the city is sitting at a $1.25 million surplus for 2013.
During Monday�s standing committee on finance meeting council members heard about the projected surplus, which is about a one per cent variance from the 2013 budget.
�I have to say that while it�s very common practice, it is worth noting Mr. Chair, that to be within one per cent of a $100-million budget is always easier for council to deal with it and to be on the right side of that is also easier for council to deal with so thank you to the many people involved,� said Mayor Nolan Crouse. Coun. Wes Brodhead chairs the standing committee on finance meetings.
The preliminary year-end numbers show the city spent $900,000 more than budgeted but also received $2.2 million more in revenue than expected.
The city�s operating funds generated $128.6 million in revenues and $127.3 million in expenditures.
Several departments were under budget, with planning and engineering services and economic development 21 and 24 per cent under budget respectively. Those two departments were the most dramatically under budget.
According to administration�s report, economic development was under budget mainly due to vacant positions and a delay in the retail demand study.
Planning and Engineering Services was under budget because of additional revenue and some vacant positions.
Community and protective services was one per cent over budget and infrastructure services was six per cent over budget.
The final year-end report, as well as staff recommendations on the 2013 reserve transfers, will be before the standing committee on finance in March.

CUMBRIA County Council says it will not be swayed by financial incentives to grant planning consent for shale gas extraction.
The authority gave its response after the Government said local authorities that gave the thumbs up to fracking – a process of drilling into the ground to extract shale gas – would be able to keep 100 per cent of the business rates they collected from sites.
The amount is double the current figure and could be worth up to £1.7 million a year for a typical site.
A Department for Energy and Climate Change (DECC) report has identified an area from Levens to Kirkby Lonsdale that could be exploited.
A spokesperson for Cumbria County Council said: "Any financial incentives being offered should not influence decisions on shale gas sites or any other planning applications."
Lawrence Conway, chief executive of South Lakeland District Council, promised to 'balance all considerations' if companies did bid to extract shale gas from the region.
But he said that the national park authority and Cumbria County Council had responsibility for minerals planning and any decision would rest solely with them, though SLDC would be consulted on any planning applications related to mineral extraction.

RECIPES: Recipe Details
Black n Blue Burgers with Raspberry Chipotle Mayo
I love the flavor of White Merlot and frequently soak raspberries in it, mix it with blue cheese, and serve it on crackers as an appetizer. One afternoon, I left it for my husband to prepare and he thought that the can of chipotle chiles on the counter was part of the recipe. Luckily, it turned out to taste better than I thought it would be, and we served it with the hamburgers we grilled that night. It turned out to be a great flavor combination, so I created a hamburger recipe that included those flavors.
1 lb ground chuck
1 1/4 lbs ground sirloin
¼ cup Sutter Home White Merlot
1 ½ tsp salt
2 Tbsp blackened seasoning (I used Durkee brand)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 Tbsp raspberry balsamic vinegar
12 oz blue cheese, crumbled
Caramelized onions
1 large red onion
1 large yellow onion
2 Tbsp olive oil
¼ tsp ground black pepper
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp dark brown sugar
Raspberry chipotle mayo
3 tsp red raspberry fruit preserves, melted (I used Schmucker's Simply Fruit)
2/3 cup mayo
1 Tbsp chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced + 1 tsp of the adobo sauce
2 tsp raspberry balsamic vinegar
Vegetable oil for preparing the grill
6 (4 ½- to 5-inch) soft Kaiser rolls, split
36 leaves baby arugula
Prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill with a cover, or preheat a gas grill to medium-high.
To make the patties, combine the chuck, sirloin, White Merlot, salt, blackened seasoning, garlic powder, Worcestershire sacue, raspberry balsamic vinegar, and crumbled blue cheese in a large bowl. Handling the meat as little as possible to avoid compacting it, mix well. Divide the mixture into 6 equal parts and form the portions into patties to fit the rolls.
To make the caramelized onions, slice the onions into thin slices and set aside. Warm the olive oil in a 12-inch fireproof skillet on the grill. Add the onions, season with the pepper, and saute, stirring frequently, until translucent and sticky, 15 to 20 minutes; avoid burning the onions by moving the skillet location away from the direct heat if needed. Add the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar and continue cooking the onions, stirring, for about 5 minutes longer. Transfer the onions to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and then foil to keep warm, and set aside.
When the grill is ready, brush the grill rack with vegetable oil. Place the patties on the rack, cover, and cook, turning once, until done to preference, 4-5 minutes minutes on each side for medium-rare. In the final couple minutes of cooking, place the rolls, cut side down, on the outer part of the grill to toast lightly.
While the burgers are cooking, make the raspberry chipotle mayo by melting the raspberry preserves in a very small (3 inches or less) fireproof container on the grill. Pour melted preserves into a small bowl and add the mayo, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (and adobe sauce), and raspberry balsamic vinegar. Combine well with a whisk and set aside.
To assemble the burgers, place 6 leaves of baby arugula on the bottom roll, place a patty on top and then top with an equal portion of the caramelized onion. Spread a thin layer of the raspberry chipotle mayo on the top bun and place it on top of the caramelized onion. Serve and Enjoy!

Have you ever tuned up your ukulele and played one chord in tune then switch to another chord and it plays out of tune? The strings are stretched and the open strings are in tune, but for some reason that second chord plays out of tune... Well my friends that is what is called poor intonation! There are many issues that cause poor intonation and TunaUke Technology solves them all. With this technology Lanikai have achieved over a 90 percent improvement! For the first time ever in the history of the instrument you can overcome all the obstacles and have a ukulele that plays open chords in tune all the way up the neck. The TunaUke is comprised of two important features. The first is the Compensated Nut: Between the four strings the differences in string width and tension are substantial. By compensating the distance between the first fret and the nut, Lanikai TunaUkes are able to make open chords sound as smooth as silk. The second is the Movable Saddle: Traditional straight saddles on a ukulele or any other fretted instrument are detrimental to good intonation. With nylon strings even "compensated saddles" are a complete fallacy. The issue is that nylon strings are by their nature, inconstant. After much testing Lanikai found the only way to improve on this is to create movable saddle technology to allow the player to adjust the amount of compensation for each string. No tools are required and adjusting the intonation is as easy as pouring milk on cereal.

Technote (troubleshooting)
No records are returned when querying in a TEXT enabled field in Maximo.
When querying in a TEXT enabled field in Maximo you see the following error in the Maximo log.
Msg 7619, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Execution of a full-text operation failed. A clause of the query contained only ignored words.
The query contains ignored words.
Diagnosing the problem
An example will illustrate the problem of querying on ignored words.
The maxdemo database contains an asset record with the description:'Database software for the desktop'.
select * from asset where description ='Database software for the desktop'
The asset.description field is defined as a TEXT field and Maximo uses full text search to form the where clause.
If you query on the string "database software for the desktop", Maximo generates a query which contains a where clause which includes the following syntax:
select * from asset
where contains(description , ' FORMSOF(INFLECTIONAL,database)
& FORMSOF(INFLECTIONAL,software) & FORMSOF(INFLECTIONAL,for)
& FORMSOF(INFLECTIONAL,the) & FORMSOF(INFLECTIONAL,desktop) ')
The above query gives the error:
Msg 7619, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Execution of a full-text operation failed. A clause of the query contained only ignored words.
However, if you query on the string, "database software desktop", the query will return the expected results.
select * from asset
where contains(description , ' FORMSOF(INFLECTIONAL,database)
& FORMSOF(INFLECTIONAL,software)
& FORMSOF(INFLECTIONAL,desktop) ')
Resolving the problem
By default, most description fields in Maximo are defined as the TEXT searchtype. This means that a SQL Server full-text index is created on that field, and searching is done using the full-text catalog, rather than a sql wildcard search.
You can remove the TEXT property from the description field, if it is necessary to query on common words which SQL Server considers as noise words. This can be performed in database configuration. You can change the search type from TEXT to WILDCARD if desired.
If you want to use full-text, you must avoid querying on noise words. Noise words are words such as "a", "the", "for" and numbers. The noise words are stored in a file which can be edited if desired. Refer to SQL Server Documentation for further information on this file.

Royal Oak
After failing to clinch playoff spot, Shrine football keys on final three games
By Mike Moore
Posted October 9, 2013
ROYAL OAK — There was disappointment, but there was also perspective.
After so many years on the sideline, John Goddard has learned to balance the two.
And on Oct. 6, the Royal Oak Shrine football coach needed to.
"This is a tough one. Disappointing," Goddard said following a 21-14 loss to Waterford Our Lady of the Lakes on a Sunday afternoon celebrating the school's annual homecoming.
Big plays, he would go on to explain, were the difference in his guys moving to 6-0 or 5-1.
"We know what we have to do," Goddard said of the final three weeks of the regular season. "All we can do is bounce back."
Trailing 7-0, Shrine quarterback Tim Niehaus connected with John Lee on an 80-yard touchdown pass to even the game.
Lakes took the lead back on its first possession of the second half, a 64-yard run by Sean Thomas, only to see Niehaus answer with a 24-yard touchdown run of his own.
But the final score came midway through the third, when Zack Bell hauled in a 46-yard pass from Dylan Sabo and scored the game's final touchdown.
"Just too many big plays against us. We can't do that and expect to win close games like this," Goddard said. "It's a tough loss because of what we could've done today."
The Knights could have clinched a playoff berth and all but secured a spot in the Prep Bowl.
Now, the emphasis shifts to the final three weeks, and a little bit of rooting for other teams.
One victory in any of the remaining games will give Shrine its 11th consecutive playoff appearance.
If Lakes falls to Allen Park Cabrini on Oct. 11, and the Knights beat Riverview Gabriel Richard (7 p.m. Oct. 11 at Richard) and Bloomfield Hills Cranbrook-Kingswood (2 p.m. Oct. 19 at home), Shrine will also qualify for the Prep Bowl.
"We've played well all season; there's just a few things we did here today you can't like," Goddard added. "We have to get back at it and find a way to fix those things."
Playoff hopes alive
Clawson High beat St. Clair Shores South Lake 21-14 Oct. 4 to improve to 4-2 on the season.
After missing out on the 2012 playoffs with a loss in the season's final week, the Trojans can clinch a spot in this year's postseason with two wins in their final three games.
Clawson hosts Warren Lincoln (2-4) at 7 p.m. Oct. 11, before traveling to Mount Clemens High (3-2) at 7 p.m. Oct. 18 and then closing with a home game against East Detroit (1-5) at 7 p.m. Oct. 25.

Digital Radio
Frontier Silicon is the world's leading provider of chips, modules and software for digital radios. Customers include Sony, Philips, Panasonic, Pure, Roberts, Grundig and several major retailer own-brands. Since it was founded in 2001, Frontier has shipped over 25m digital radio solutions worldwide. Frontier Silicon became part of the Toumaz Group in August 2012.
The first countries to adopt digital radio successfully were the UK, Norway, Denmark, Switzerland and Australia. Norway and Switzerland are the first to confirm dates for Digital Switchover (DSO) - respectively 2017 and 2020-24.
In the UK, the Government has set out a clear vision for a digital future for radio. In December 2013, it announced the roll-out of 360 new national and local DAB transmitters, plans for a second national commercial multiplex and the introduction of a Digital Tick scheme for domestic and automotive receivers. Coverage is nearly completed, the new national multiplex launched in March 2016 and the Digital tick scheme has been running since 2015.
Across Europe and beyond, the footprint of digital radio is poised for rapid expansion. August 2011 saw the launch of DAB+ services in Germany; The Netherlands launched national DAB+ in Sept 2013 and Italy launched a second national commercial multiplex in 2014. France has launched services in Paris, Nice and Marseille - and has published a timetable for roll-out across a further 20+ cities in the coming years. Several other territories are emerging as potential new markets, including Belgium, Czech Republic and Poland.
In 2015, Frontier Silicon introduced its 4th generation Kino 4 chip. This chip delivers significant cost and power consumption savings. Now in mass production as part of the Verona 2 module.(Find out more)
Smart Audio
The Toumaz Group sees smart audio as a key component of its medium term growth strategy: the networked audio sector is poised for take-off; by 2016, ~70% of new consumer audio devices are expected to be connected (up from less than 20% in 2012). The Group already has significant technology expertise in this sphere. The company will seek both to leverage its existing customer base and secure new clients (including major consumer electronics brands not active in digital radio).
Over the next two years, the company expects to launch a number of smart audio solutions. The first will be a smart audio solution incorporating Google's Cast for Audio technology. Frontier is one of a very small number of system integrators working with Google on this programme.

Originally designed for SWAT teams and the military for door breaching and such, Ten-X Tactical is planning on selling their new underslung shotgun to civilians as well. The single shot shotgun is designed to run under either a 16 inch or shorter barrel (with options for longer barrels) and provides a nice Magwell grip when not in use. Video after the break . . .
The shotgun is technically considered an "Any Other Weapon" under the National Firearms Act, meaning that you only pay the $5 tax instead of the full rape that is the $200 charge. Same
rectal exam background check, though. The aluminum construction is nice and won't add a whole lot of weight to your gun. I could definitely see this going on a home defense AR-15.
28 Responses to New from Ten-X Tactical: Underslung Single Shot Shotgun
"I could definitely see this going on a home defense AR-15."
Seriously? I can see its utility as a breacher, but on an HD gun? I can't picture any scenario where it would be more than an impediment.
how much? assuming its illegal in Kalifornia…
Wonder if I can mount one of those on my Mosin Nagant. With that and a bayonet the zombies don't stand a chance.
'Underslung Single Shot Shotgun', aka Masterkey.
Well you could put a slug in it and keep it available for two scenarios:
(1) You have to shoot someone through a door/wall.
(2) You have to shoot someone and know for certain that they will drop right there.
It might also be a nice option for someone who wants a bean bag round for a non-lethal first shot.
Since you can register that for a $5 tax stamp, what would happen if you attached it to a buttstock which had nothing more than a single, upside-down picatinny rail? Would that still be legal?
Not sure about the legality, but why would you do that instead of just getting a regular shotgun?
Aside from the awesomeness, of course.
One phrase. End-around SBS.
Am I missing something? In my mind, that would be a shoulder fired shotgun with a barrel less than 18.5″. In other words, an unregistered SBS which will get you a nice vacation in Uncle Sam's Felon Training School.
This is the double-necked guitar of firearms – I mean that in a good way.
So, is there any word on how much this thing will cost?
The only people who will buy these are the same people who bought 37mm flare launchers.
I like it for my HD but I would put one of those taser rounds or bean bag rounds, for those situations where the law is in gray area , if running out door or away , or not sure of attacker, could be friendly ( this happen to a friend of mine , he shot his son in leg , kid was breaking back in after sneekng out) . I can have a less than lethal option. It would not be my first option for attacker , I have 30 in the clip plus extra clip why would I need more , I will buy it to have that option , I like it
Hmmm… this looks like it might be useful for 3-gunning. The single-shot is discouraging, though, unless you practice to the point where you can work it really quickly.
This could be especially useful in the Trooper division in reducing the amount of stuff you have to carry.
It could also be useful for hunting scenarios where you are hunting birds as well as other animal such as deer, coyotes, black bear, etc.
The correct term is "CITIZEN" not "civilian".
Goes back to the old question of when you mount this under a rifle with a buttstock does it then fall under a short barrel shotgun. I bought a super shorty and was going to mount it under a AR (just for sh*ts and giggles) but I was told not to because it would be adding a buttstock to a AOW and in my state short barreled shotguns are illegal(oh well super shorty way too heavy)
I could see a use for this in a HD gun. Load the single shot with a "less than lethal projectile and you would have a less than lethal option without taking rifle off target. Police could use the taser 12 gauge load on a methhead and use the AR depending on the reaction of the suspect.
Sorry Javier, just read your response about less than lethal option. Didnt mean to double up. Great minds think alike I guess 🙂
No problem , great minds do think alike lol
Reminds me of the shotgun secondary fire on a Helghast rifle in Killzone. I always loved that that thing for those oh shit rounding a corner moments.
flare gun, red flare intruder green friend, any 12 ga chute flares for illumination?
grin and lets not forget our gas rounds!
you know something is wrong with where you live if you have to defend your home with an assault rifle in general let alone such a combo.

Vienna -
The fate of nuclear talks between Iran and world powers was unclear on Tuesday after two days of "very tough" talks between US Secretary of State John Kerry and his Iranian counterpart in Vienna.
"We are in the middle of talks about nuclear proliferation and reining in Iran's programme, it is a really tough negotiation I will tell you," Kerry said in the Austrian capital.
He said later after the talks with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif: "We are working, we are working very hard. Serious discussions. (It was a) good meeting."
A senior US official said there was "more work to do".
The deadline for Iran and the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany to get a deal is Sunday, when an interim accord from November expires.
This can be extended, allowing both sides to continue talking, but only if both sides agree and Washington insists Iran has to make major concessions first.
Kerry was due to give a news conference on Tuesday morning, the US official said, and it was unclear whether he would hold any more discussions with Zarif.
Egyptian state media reported that Kerry was due in the country in an effort to broker a truce in Gaza.
The Iran talks, which entered their sixth and final round on July 3, were however set to continue between lower-ranking officials and may go down to the wire of the July 20 cut-off point.
The mooted accord would kill off for good fears that Iran might develop nuclear weapons under the guise of its civilian programme after a decade of rising tensions and threats of war.
Iran denies seeking the atomic bomb and wants the lifting of crippling UN and Western sanctions.
The six powers want Iran to dramatically reduce in scope its nuclear programme - for at least 10 years, Washington says - and agree to more intrusive UN inspections.
This would greatly expand the time needed for the Islamic republic to develop a nuclear weapon, should it choose to do so, while giving the world ample warning of any such "breakout" push.
But Iran on the other hand wants to expand its nuclear facilities, insisting they are purely peaceful and that it has the perfect right to do so.
Both sides are also under intense domestic pressure from hardliners both in Iran and in Washington - midterm US elections are in November - both wary of giving too much away.
Kerry, along with the foreign ministers of France, Germany and Britain and the deputy foreign minister of China jetted into the Austrian capital on Sunday seeking to inject some momentum.
But the three European ministers left on Sunday evening empty-handed, leaving Kerry, fresh from successfully defusing Afghanistan's political crisis, to keep trying.
Britain's Foreign Secretary William Hague said there had been no "decisive breakthrough" on Sunday and a "huge gap" remained on the key issue of uranium enrichment.
This activity can produce fuel for the country's sole nuclear plant or, if further enriched, the material for an atomic bomb.
Israel, the Middle East's sole if undeclared nuclear armed state and which together with Washington has refused to rule out military action, is opposed to any enrichment by Iran at all.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned on Fox News Sunday that any deal leaving Iran with the capability to pursue this activity would be "catastrophic".
Iranian negotiator Abbas Araqchi was on Sunday publicly sticking by Iran's position on enrichment which he called "clear and rational".
"As the supreme leader said, the enrichment programme has been planned with the real needs of the country in mind, meaning our need to ensure reactor fuel." - Sapa-AFP

Really beautiful flavour, and you can feel good eating it even though it's creamy! My 11-month-old happily ate it too.
I used frozen spinach, as the fresh stuff's hard to get here - used 500g (2 packs) but I think it would have been fine with half that amount.

Human Capital and Efficiency: The Role of Education and Experience in Micro-Enterprises of Ghana¡¯s Wood-Products Industry
Increasing efficiency and creating new employment via micro-enterprises emerges as a viable solution to four problems in developing countries - unemployment, migration from rural to urban areas, inefficient use of resources and lack of international trade capabilities. 242 micro- enterprises from Ghana¡¯s wood-product industry are used in the analysis. Schooling and on- the-job training explain efficiency dispersions among micro-enterprises. Accordingly, a proper training program can complement human capital creation by schooling and on-the-job-training to improve efficiency. Such program can also increase the awareness about international markets to create new employment opportunities.

Edit: After half day, my wife's Mac started having the same problem. I have then applied the solution that I found in the Apple
Apples Profits Rise 12% Amid Strong China Sales
Apples profits have risen by more than 12% After the company moved further into the Chinese market to boost its sales.
Apple announced its latest profits the other day and while they exceeded the expectations of some analysts, there is clearly more work to do.
Executives within the company are hoping they can produce some kind of wonder product to gain the upper hand in a slowing market that is plagued by rivals.
Profits rose 12% to $7.75bn (?4.5bn) in the third quarter as revenue surged 28% in China, despite stiff competition in its third-largest market.
Apple sold 35.2 million iPhones in total over the three months while lower-cost phones sold in China by up-and-coming rivals such as Xiaomi appeared to be grabbing market share mainly from other companies that rely on Google's Android software
IPad sales are currently down on their pre-Christmas results and Samsung announced that even their Galaxy S5 has sold slower than expected.
Apple are expected to reveal a new smart watch later this year as well as the much talked about iPhone 6 and we will be clearing both events live here on the website.

Join us on our podcast each weekday for an interesting story, well told, from Charisma News. Listen at charismapodcastnetwork.com.
A Pennsylvania man who threatened online to kill President Barack Obama, calling him an "Anti-Christ" who will be "shot dead," was sentenced on Wednesday to 12 months in prison and ordered to undergo mental health treatment.
U.S. District Judge James Munley also ordered Nicholas Savino, 42, to forfeit guns and ammunition seized from his home, including two assault weapons, 11,000 rounds of ammunition and a long-range scope, as well as a third weapon found in his car.
Besides the weapons, U.S. Secret Service agents seized literature on "How to Shoot Under Pressure" and using airplanes as weapons, according to court records.
Savino, who was credited with serving 10 months behind bars since his arrest last summer, was ordered to serve two years probation after his release.
Savino, of Clarks Summit, a suburb of Scranton, entered a plea deal in March, pleading guilty to posting a threat on the White House website. He faced up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
An attorney for Savino, Paul Ackourey, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Savino posted the threat last August, prompting a Secret Service investigation and later a federal indictment.
In the posting, Savino also vowed to share his intentions with "militias throughout the country and the media" and a subsequent investigation revealed Savino had sent emails to militias members, according to court records.
Savino had stopped taking medication for a bipolar disorder when the threats were posted, according to court documents.
Savino, who holds a university engineering degree, had made earlier threats against Obama after the Federal Aviation Administration turned him down for a pilot's license, court records show.

Comments about PBS Tennis: The Inner Game DVD:
This is a good demonstration of how someone can teach tennis using principles Tim discovered and revealed in The Inner Game of Tennis. I don't believe that beginning players can use this video to learn to play tennis on their own, although novice players may benefit from some of the exercises in the video. The video teaches how to coach using the same ideas of Inner Tennis, with minimal verbalization of how and why, and more emphasis on doing. For coaches to use this video to maximum benefit, they must be familiar with the concepts of the Inner Game. I'm not sure anyone can learn and understand the Inner Game from the video.
I was really looking for a PBS series Tim did many years ago that used a class of beginning/intermediate players that better explained the ideas of the inner game.

text: I actually went to see 'Rushmore,' and I came late, and I missed myself. It was great, that scene. I caught that scene the other day on TV, funny enough, the first scene that you see with Jason Schwartzman and myself, where we talk about his grades. That's a brilliant scene, and I have to say, we play it brilliantly.

America's Greatest Race is turning ten and there is a variety of ways for YOU to get involved. Let's take a look at a sampling of the opportunities for you to participate in next month's Amgen Tour of California.
Man, is it close! We are just over a week away from the start of the 2014 Amgen Tour of California. So much to do before I pack up the car for the drive to Sacramento ahead of the Stage 1 start on Sunday, May 11.
Attending America's Greatest Race is a fun and exciting day for all and one of the highlights is visiting the Amgen Tour of California Lifestyle Festival located at each of the finish line host cities. Thousands of spectators gather at the Amgen Tour of California Lifestyle Festival where they can watch the race on outdoors video screens while awaiting the arrival of the peloton for the thrilling finish. There is so much to see, do and learn that you can literally spend all day at the festival enjoying live music, food and beverages, entertainment and interactive experiences, shop for race merchandise, play games, and discover and demo new cycling products along with the latest tips for healthy living.
There isn't a single person reading this who has not been touched by cancer – you yourself or one of your family members, friends, neighbors, teammates, classmates or work colleagues. It's only April and so far this year I lost a family member, one of my closest friends lost his father, my girlfriend's father had multiple surgeries and has been hospitalized for several weeks, and one of my long-time cycling buddies is presently fighting for his life – all because of cancer. That's why Amgen's Breakaway Mile is so important.
Cycling is a colorful sport with all those vibrantly-colored jerseys. Even newbies know that the rider wearing the yellow jersey is the race leader (in most major stage races). But not all riders are built with the same body type or the same skillset. Some athletes are more muscular and generate tremendous power in thrilling sprints. Others are wiry featherweights capable of ascending mountains like angels. There are five highly-coveted jerseys and competitions within the competition that riders will be fighting for at next month's Amgen Tour of California.
Hundreds of SoCal cyclists will get a feel of what the Amgen Tour of California riders will experience on Stage 8 at Sunday morning's L'Etape du California in Thousand Oaks. Cyclists will ride the 20-mile loop that the pro peloton will complete four times on the final day of this year's race. It is the same circuit that was used on the last stage of the 2010 ATOC, which saw Canadian Ryder Hesjedal ride to victory after climbing 8,800 feet on the challenging route that was lined with a massive, enthusiastic throng staked out on the famed Rock Store climb on Mulholland Drive that made it look like it was a Tour de France mountain stage.

Interested in California?
We'll send you updates with the latest deals, reviews and articles for California each week.
Topics include Transportation, Dining Scene, United States: For Foreign Visitors & more!
California is a very large state and has a wide range of weather climates. Popular culture may have one believe that the weather in California is always sunny and perfect year-round, but the truth is that some seasonality does exist, even along the coast.
San Diego, Santa Barbara, and the Central Coast (as far north as Avila Beach) have mild climates that are enjoyable at all times of year. Rainfall is minimal, and excessive heat and cold are almost unheard of. Like most of the California coast, expect "May Gray" and "June Gloom" along the beaches. The overcast weather usually burns off by noon and generally doesn't exist a few miles inland, but a visit in the late summer makes it easiest to partake of warmer beach weather and warm water.
Los Angeles is slightly warmer than San Diego and Santa Barbara, and its inland regions can be somewhat hot during the peak summer months. However, the heat generally isn't excessive, and LA can be visited any time of year.
San Francisco stays cool year-round. Fog is common in the summer, and cool breezes are not uncommon any time of year. The warmest and clearest time generally runs from August to October, with September often being a "safe bet" for mildly warm weather. Be sure to pack a jacket no matter what, though, or suffer the fate of many tourists who end up sporting a San Francisco sweater or jacket.
The Central Coast from Morro Bay to Santa Cruz has weather that is more similar to San Francisco than Santa Barbara. Summers are pleasantly cool and winters are cool but relatively mild. A coastal breeze is common.
The North Coast, starting in roughly Bodega Bay and extending all the way to Oregon, has cool weather year-round and experiences more rain that the rest of the coast. In fact, areas like Eureka experience cool to cold weather most of the year and frequent rain in the winter. Jackets are essential in winter and can be welcome in summer -- leave the shorts at home! In Bodega Bay and along the Wild Sonoma Coast you may find the warmest time of year is after the summer fog abates, leaving the beaches warm and sunny, sometimes reaching 80 degrees during October and November. Always prepare for the cold, dressing in layers so the warm sun, when present, can be enjoyed.
Coastal weather throughout California changes rapidly as you head inland. In the summer, depending upon where you are, you'll experience warmer temperatures if you go even as few as 10 miles inland.
Communities located in the Sierra Nevada Mountains along the state's Eastern border experience warm days and cool nights during the summer, whilst winter months are cold. Annual snow is part of the landscape here, and ski resorts such as Lake Tahoe become wildly popular as soon as it starts snowing in the fall. The historic Donner Pass - well known for the tragedy of its deep winter snow - is located in this region.
The great Central Valley, one of the world's most productive farming areas, has wide temperature swings year round. Summer temperatures are sweltering and winters can be quite cold. Snow is unusual but nightly frost is common.
The seldom-visited Northeast section of California consists of the southern part of the Cascade Mountain range, as well as foothills rich in volcanic history. The climate in general is cold (and can be snowy) in the winter, and warm and dry in the summer.
In Death Valley the name gives one an idea what to expect during the summer. Temperatures are well above 100º Fahrenheit throughout the summer, and only well-maintained cars stocked with water, hats and sunscreen should make the visit at that time of year. Like any desert region, Death Valley in the winter can be erratic. Rainfall can be surprising and heavy, wreaking havoc on roadways. Death Valley is best visited in the spring and fall when temperatures are not too high; spring is especially nice when the wildflowers bloom.
Some unusual weather conditions to be aware of:
Tornados seldom occur in California, and hurricanes and tropical storms are even more rare. Thunderstorms are uncommon along the coast, but they sometimes occur in inland areas in the winter and also in the eastern deserts during Arizona's summer monsoon season. Flash floods are possible in the desert; avoid low-lying areas during and after rain. Tule (pronounced too-lee) fog can develop in the Central Valley during winter months; driving in tule fog can be exceedingly dangerous so slow down and use great care.
Earthquakes are a consideration in California, but it is not possible to predict them and there is no scientific evidence supporting the common notion of "earthquake weather" (defined by warmth and lack of wind).
Wildfires -- usually exacerbated by Santa Ana winds -- are the biggest natural threat in California. It is best to avoid extremely dry regions during hot windy days; take note of fire danger signs in California's foothills, mountains, and parks, and ask a local if you have any questions. Wildfires are more common during the fall but can occur at any time of year.
No mattter which weather region you are visiting, enjoy your stay in the "Golden State" :-)

Wed 7 Apr 2010 in Ostrów Wielkopolski:
The hashpoint turned out to be on a burnt field, few meters away from a narrow gauge railway from Wrocław to Trzebnica, about 1km south-west from Ramiszów, north from Wrocław. More at peeron geohashing.info google osm bing/os kml crox.
I picked my bike from service and set out on journey. The first part through the city was pretty easy and uninteresting as I drove through those areas frequently. Things were getting trickier as I passed the city border. Initially I wanted to approach the hashpoint through the fields west of the railway as that was where the hashpoint was. Unfortunately the fields turned out to be very swampy and almost impassable. I tried and made some progress for a kilometer or two, crossing a highway in construction, but eventually I got stopped completely. I was afraid that I would have to go with Mother Nature Is Bitch achievement, but I managed to turn around, cross the railway and get to a road east of it. I should have started that way. I cycled along the road to Ramiszów, from there it was only about one hundred meters along some field way, across the railway, and another hundred meters to the actual hashpoint at about 15:45 (CEST).
The point turned out to be in the middle of a burnt field, not a pleasant place to spend time on, so I just took some photos to document my adventure (it did take some time actually, more than half an hour). A train passed by as I was shooting photos, I managed to take a blurry photo of it. None other hashers appeared so at about 16:15 (CEST) I left the place, got on the road to Wrocław and cycled home.

The healthcare law assumes that the funding will no longer be needed once provisions aimed at providing broader insurance coverage — including an expansion of Medicaid — take effect.
The contents of the proposed rule will not be available the office finishes its review, which is required to take 90 days or less. The document will likely provide the health department's plan for calculating the cuts.
Under the Affordable Care Act, the department has an obligation to finalize these rules by this October, but procedural and political delays could threaten that deadline.
Earlier this month, The Washington Post reported that the Obama administration is hoping to delay the 2014 implementation date, following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that allows states to opt out of the Medicaid expansion.
President Obama's budget recommends delaying the cuts until 2015, the Post reports.
In addition, there are regulatory hurdles the proposal has to break through.
Many of OIRA's reviews are behind schedule, and even if the White House releases the proposal within 90 days, any changes the health department must make before publishing means the draft may not reach the public until August.
Following the release, the department must hold a comment period — lasting anywhere between 30 and 90 days — and then make changes to the proposal before submitting its final rule to the White House for review. Then, the second 90-day OIRA review process begins.

Ghaziabad, June 11 (IANS) Members of Rajendra Nagar Industrialists Association in this Uttar Pradesh town are agitated against police apathy towards controlling rising crime and failure to arrest armed dacoits who looted a factory Monday night.
Association president K.K. Sharma said that armed dacoits barged into Pratibha Transformers' factory, tied up the security guard and looted five tonnes of aluminium and copper wire from the factory. They loaded the wires on a truck and fled.
He said that police registered a case of burglary instead of dacoity.
Sharma alleged that police are trying to frame the security guard for the crime instead of arresting the real culprits.

(Caribbean360News): SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico, Wednesday November 28, 2012 – Puerto Ricans are counting their losses after the long Thanksgiving weekend turned into a bloody rampage that left almost a score of people dead.
The carnage was scattered throughout the island and largely resulted from automatic weapons fired from moving cars in attacks authorities describe as drug-related.
The majority of the killings nevertheless took place in the most densely populated districts of San Juan, Caguas, Carolina, Ponce and Bayamon.
Bayamon was the location of the recent murder of ex-world champion boxer Hector "Macho" Camacho, whose companion in the car riddled with machine-gun bullets, Alberto Yamil Mojica, had a record of drug offenses.
The main cause of the spike in Puerto Rican crime is said to be the increasing use of the Caribbean corridor for shipping cocaine to the United States.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 22/11/2013 (1368 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The provincial government's edict that small rural municipalities must amalgamate has caused great consternation, but there is reason to examine resistance to the idea.
Manitoba RMs have been operating under the same policies for more than 100 years -- since the days horse and buggy were the preferred mode of transportation to our meetings. It seems to me, after a century, only the most incorrigible Luddite will argue some tweaking of our policies is not necessary, and this is all the province was suggesting. Their imposition of a requirement that we must do it was necessary as well.
The directors of the Association of Manitoba Municipalities have insisted they are not opposed to amalgamation, but it should be voluntary. This, as they had to know, would happen only on a similar timeline to the second coming of Christ.
Dissenters insist municipalities were "forced to confront ideas with which we don't agree" and "we were having unpalatable policies rammed down our throats."
What ideas? What policies? We were told we must choose partners and formulate an amalgamation plan, but the content of this plan was left entirely to us. We were given the chance and we blew it.
There are many reasons for this. One is the reluctance of a conservative population to accept change. This becomes most evident if one examines the content of the plans submitted to date: most, if not all, adhere very closely to policies in place before amalgamation -- same number of wards, same number of councillors. In other words, they stick so closely to the past that the future appears identical. Some progress.
The fact that this "change" makes it more likely incumbent councillors will retain their seats can't be a reason for it -- or can it?
My own RM of Brenda amalgamated with the town of Waskada; this eliminated one council, but made no change to the municipal map or to efficiency. I've seen the same happen with other RMs.
The process was further complicated by the inappropriate involvement of some chief administrative officers. A minority took an active part in their council's policy discussions, a role way beyond their job description.
Many councils wanted ratepayers involved in the deliberations. Ratepayers' wishes have to be considered, but at the end of the day the buck stops with us.
We were elected to make the right decision when thorny issues arise. If it turns out the decisions are wrong, well, that is what the next election is for.
Amalgamation should result in municipal government best-suited for the 21st century. Not some warmed-up rehash of 100-year-old policies.
And we have -- right under our noses -- a template for a much better system of municipal government.
In the early 1900s, North Dakota and Manitoba were roughly at the same stage of political development. But the state and province chose radically different systems to open up their local governments. Manitoba chose the method that has resulted in what we see today -- 116 RMs of varying shapes and sizes, with no apparent rhyme nor reason for their boundaries. They have, as of 2011, a population of 259,000.
North Dakota has 53 counties, with borders appearing to be symmetrical and designed to fit the topography of the state. Their population is 672,591.
Each N.D. county has an elected government of not more than five commissioners, including a chairperson. Each county has a county seat, in which there is an office housing their auditor (equivalent to our CAO), and several staff.
North Dakota's system is not perfect. They have divided their counties into a large number of townships for which they are having difficulty finding volunteers.
It seems to me a combination of our two systems could result in a much improved municipal government which uses the good elements and discards the weak.
This letter may seem intemperate to some, and for that I apologize. It is written in frustration at the fact we had an offer -- unique I believe in the annals of provincial legislation -- to manage our own local municipalities in a way that could have been a major improvement over our antiquated system of government. We failed to take advantage of this offer.
No future provincial government is going to allow our present chaotic and inefficient system of municipal government to continue for much longer. They will certainly change it, and this time they are not likely to ask for our advice.
Duncan Stewart is the reeve of the RM of Brenda. The views expressed here are his own.
