Apple's iPad market share has a bite taken out of it by lower-priced tablets
In a sign of strong interest from consumers for lower-priced tablets, iPad?s market share dropped to 50 percent in the third quarter, while Samsung, Amazon and Asus all picked up share, according to new research from International Data Corp.
With Apple reporting that it sold three million iPad minis this past weekend - the first time the iPad mini and fourth generation iPad were available - the drop could be a temporary one. However, the shift toward lower-priced tablets could have an impact on the revenue Apple generates in this category.
?The greatest significance of this news will, in fact, be to Apple's bottom line,? said Amy Vale, vice president of global research and strategic communications at Mojiva, New York.
?As adoption of new technology grows, it?s likely we?ll see a relative shift upwards in the number of consumers willing to purchase a similar device at a lower price point,? she said.
?I'm sure Apple has a plan for how to grow market share as this happens, no doubt that was the impetus behind the iPad mini release.?
Q4 momentum
Apple?s share of worldwide tablet shipments dropped from 65.5 percent in the second quarter to 50.4 percent in the third quarter.
During the same period, Samsung?s tablet shipments jumped 115 percent from the second quarter and 325 percent year-over-year for a total of 5.1 million units. The growth was driven by Samsung?s Galaxy Tab and Note 10.1.
Samsung?s market share reached 18.4 percent during the third quarter, the first time a competitor has reached this level of share since the original launch of the iPad.
Worldwide tablet shipments totaled 27.8 million units in the third quarter of 2012, up 49.5 percent year over year and 6.7 percent compared with the previous quarter.
Apple had a strong second quarter in the tablet category. However, as rumors of a new iPad mini heated up, some consumers may have held off buying a new iPad to wait for a newer, less expensive offering.
?There is a certain level of significance behind Apple losing share as it means Android tablets are starting to be embraced by consumers,? said Ryan Reith, San Mateo, CA-based program manager at IDC. ?However, we believe Apple's announcements of iPad mini and 4th generation iPad played a large role in consumers holding off purchases until Q4.
?We expect Apple to regain some of its share in Q4 with most likely record quarterly sales,? he said.
?As for the consumer, clearly there are more options in the market than ever before, and with the launch of Windows 8 and Windows RT tablets it will further add to the list of tablet choices. Despite the variety of options we still see Apple as the predominant tablet manufacturer over the coming 5 years.?
Android gains
While the iPad mini and fourth generation iPad are selling well, the iPad mini?s relatively high $329 starting price point should leave room for less-expensive Android tablets to continue to gain steam.
Amazon?s market share grew from 4.8 percent in the second quarter to 9 percent in Q3 for a total of 2.5 million units shipped. The company did not have product in the market in the third quarter of last year.
During the third quarter of this year, Amazon announced its new Kindle Fire HD tablets. It began shipping the new 7-inch HD version in the United States in mid-September.
With distribution growing to five additional countries in the fourth quarter, Amazon?s growth is expected to continue.
ASUS also gained market share, driven by strong shipments of its Google-branded Nexus 7 tablet. Asus shipped 2.4 million units in the third quarter, up 242.9 percent year over year, for an 8.6 percent share of the market.
App downloads
In other iOS news, the iPhone?s share of quarterly global smartphone app downloads dropped to 29 percent in the quarter compared to 47 percent for Android smartphones, according to new research from ABI Research.
While the iPhone?s share of downloads tends to see a lot of seasonal fluctuation, the second quarter numbers are notable because this is the first time the number has dropped below 30 percent, according to ABI?s estimates. In the year prior, the number has stayed consistently between 30 percent and 37 percent.
ABI Research attributes the drop primarily to Apple?s clampdown on download bots earlier this year. Download bots are automated programs used by some developers to download apps until they reach the top of the charts.
The issue was reportedly widespread on the iOS platform previously but, for the most part, is as not as big problem on Android because of Google?s different app-ranking methods and to the fact that developers typically are not making as much money on Android.
However, another reason for the drop in the iPhone?s share of app downloads is the momentum behind the iPad. ABI Research estimates that in the first half of the year, the iPad saw over five times more app downloads than all Android tablets combined.
?Android-powered tablet devices have many benefits, including lower price point s and variation in screen sizes,? Mojiva?s Ms. Vale said.
?It shouldn?t really change how marketers are developing their mobile advertising strategies,? she said. ?Advertisers and agencies should be targeting both Android and Apple devices to ensure their mobile advertising campaigns have strong reach and scalability. ?

One accountant at Metro took Federal Income Tax 1, a course at the University of Maryland University College described as "an introduction to federal taxation." Another took Intermediate Accounting 1. Several other Metro workers in financially sensitive positions — who help oversee million-dollar contracts — used the transit authority's tuition reimbursement program to enroll in introductory courses on contracts or business.
One office administrator enrolled in "Intro to Sociallity," as she spelled it, at Strayer University because it "helps to understand paperwork."
The Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) has spent millions of dollars on college courses for its employees in recent years, with use of its generous tuition reimbursement program growing from $380,000 in 2007 to almost half a million dollars in fiscal 2010, records show.
But the use of the program, which doles out nearly all the money to employees in cash rather than directly paying the schools, has a member of Congress questioning whether it's an effective use of taxpayer money.
The majority of institutions where courses are taken are for-profit schools, many of which have dismal completion rates, some of which are online, and almost all of which are far more expensive than public schools, especially for District residents, who are eligible for in-state tuition anywhere.
The most common schools were Strayer University, the University of Phoenix, Everest College, University of Maryland University College and Prince George's Community College, all but two of which are for-profit.
"I am increasingly concerned that many government agencies, not just WMATA, are using taxpayer dollars to send students to low-quality, high-cost for-profit colleges with terrible student outcomes," Sen. Tom Harkin, Iowa Democrat, said in a statement. "Most troubling is that these agencies do not provide students with sufficient information to protect themselves or perform adequate due diligence regarding the schools' value."
In May, Mr. Harkin and Sen. Thomas R. Carper, Delaware Democrat, issued a scathing condemnation of for-profit colleges and government programs that pay for veterans to attend them as a waste of taxpayer money. Their denunciation came after a critical audit by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) in March on the use of GI Bill funds.
Mr. Harkin read from a letter from one veteran: "In hindsight, I regret attending ITT Tech. The institution provided at best an absolutely minimum education and left me with nearly insurmountable debt. Even worse, ITT Tech took taxpayer money in the form of grants and my GI Bill, amounting to a net loss for all taxpaying Americans."
Metro is subsidized by the federal government, the District, states and local jurisdictions.
For-profit schools cost two to six times as much as traditional colleges, Mr. Harkin found.
Several are under investigation for misleading recruitment practices, and critics say the industry recruits entirely among uneducated, impoverished populations that respond to late-night television ads and don't research the value of the schools.
The remedial accounting courses were taken by accountants at Metro after the agency hired as an accountant a woman who had disclosed several financial fraud convictions on her job application and who prosecutors said got her introduction to finance by keeping track of money for one of the District's largest heroin gangs.
Documents were obtained by The Washington Times through an open-records request submitted last year and returned this week, and they cover fiscal 2006 through 2010.
A Metro spokeswoman didn't directly address concerns about the program but emphasized that it gives employees the opportunity to grow professionally.
"The Tuition Reimbursement Program is one way that Metro invests in its employees and in its future," spokeswoman Caroline Lukas said in a statement. "Employees are eligible for reimbursement for classes that support the pursuit of a degree, including electives and requirements for other classes."
Some Metro workers did enroll in courses that seemingly could advance their careers. A transit police officer, for example, took a $3,154 Introduction to Policing class at Westwood College. A purchasing agent took a $1,945 course from Strayer on business strategies and proposals.
But many courses paid for by Metro had no relationship to professions, such as courses on video games and black history, one of the more commonly taken courses.
Among the multiple people who had Metro foot the bill for classes on parenting was Robbie O. McGee, a repeat felon who was promoted rapidly to a high-level management position shortly after being released from 12 years in federal prison for dealing PCP.
Workers in a wide variety of positions also took courses that indicated minimal grasp of basic skills. A Metro project management analyst took Fundamentals of Writing and Grammar at the University of Maryland University College. A mechanic took Speech 1000 at Prince George's Community College, while others took basic English.
Limited literacy was on display even on the forms, sometimes filled out by midlevel managers. A manager of bus service operations, for example, took "Element of Supervision" at Prince George's Community College and filed for reimbursement because "this course have eqqptd me in forming my duties as a manager, and have helped better prepared me for the position of Superintendent." He was seeking a promotion from a $78,000 job to an $89,000 job, payroll records suggest.
One Metro employee applied for reimbursement for courses at prestigious Villanova University, a Catholic school in the Philadelphia area — but he misspelled the name of the school as "Villinova."
At least one course, frustrated riders might suggest, was much-needed for the improvement of job performance. One station manager took a $1,500 course at the Sanford Brown Institute called "human relations."

Appellate Court Allows Constitutional Challenge to Superfund Provision to Go Forward
On March 2, 2004, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit upheld the right of General Electric Company (GE) to challenge the constitutionality of the unilateral administrative order (UAO) scheme authorized by Section 106 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation & Liability Act (CERCLA), 42 U.S.C. §§ 9606, and related provisions. The appeals court in General Electric Co. v. Environmental Protection Agency, 360 F.3d 188 (D.C. Cir. 2004), overturned the ruling of the District of Columbia District Court, which had concluded that Section 113(h) of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. § 9613, prohibited GE's challenge by depriving the courts of jurisdiction over such suits. Although finding that Section 113(h) bars pre-enforcement review of agency action under Sections 104 and 106(a) as applied to specific enforcement orders, the appellate court held such a bar is not applicable to challenges to the constitutionality of the statutory scheme on its face. Opening this provision to potential constitutional challenge could affect a significant tool in EPA's enforcement arsenal. If the court on remand were to find that the EPA's UAO authority violated due process, it could have a significant effect on the ability of EPA to quickly force parties to take cleanup actions.
Under Section 106, EPA is authorized to issue UAOs to parties deemed potentially responsible for the costs of environmental cleanup. In essence, a UAO is a legal document issued by EPA that directs the identified potentially responsible parties (PRPs) to take corrective action or refrain from an activity, detailing the violations and actions to be taken. This can be enforced in court. Indeed, a recalcitrant party is potentially subject to the imposition of penalties of up to $27,500 per day and may further be subject to punitive damages in an amount equal to three times the cost incurred by the government from the Superfund to clean the site. See 42 U.S.C. §§ 9606(b)(1), 9607(c)(3).
At issue was whether GE was precluded from challenging the UAO scheme as a violation of the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution by failing to provide a hearing before the EPA issued an order or before timely and meaningful judicial review after issuance. GE reasoned that it should not be forced to wait for EPA to initiate an enforcement action before it can obtain review of the constitutionality of the statutory provision. GE stressed the fact that if a company refuses to comply with a UAO, it risks considerable penalties, and if EPA proceeds with the cleanup, then the company could be assessed cleanup costs plus treble damages. GE asserted that the UAO "imposes a classic and unconstitutional Hobson's choice: Either do nothing and risk severe punishment without meaningful recourse or comply and wait indefinitely before having any opportunity to be heard on the legality and rationality of the underlying order." 360 F.3d at 190.
EPA defended its action under the theory that Section 113(h) of CERCLA prohibits pre-enforcement review of UAOs. The provision at issue provides the following:
No federal court shall have jurisdiction under Federal law other than under section 1332 of the Title 28 (relating to diversity of citizenship jurisdiction) or under State law which is applicable or relevant and appropriate under section 9621 of this title (relating to cleanup standards) to review any challenges to removal or remedial action selected under section 9604 of this title, or to review any order issued under section 9606(a) of this title. . . .
360 F.3d at 189. Whenever any hazardous substance is released or is threatened to be released into the environment, Section 104 (42 U.S.C. § 9604) authorizes EPA to undertake two types of actions: (1) to remove or arrange for the removal of the hazardous substance and (2) to provide for "remedial actions" relating to the substance. "Removal actions" are short-term remedies that are designed to cleanup, monitor, assess, and evaluate the hazardous substances. In turn "remedial actions" are longer-term, more permanent remedies to "minimize the release of hazardous substances so that they do not migrate to other property or cause substantial danger to present or future public health or welfare or the environment." 42 U.S.C. § 9601. In turn, under Section 106(a), EPA may issue UAOs after notice to the affected state, directing the responsible parties to clean up the hazardous sites "as may be necessary to protect public health and welfare and the environment." 42 U.S.C. § 9606(a).
EPA asserted (and the lower court agreed) that Section 113 prevents GE's suit by postponing review of any action under CERCLA until EPA seeks to enforce its remedial orders in court or the PRP sues to recoup its expenses for undertaking the cleanup. In overturning the lower court holding, the appellate court relied primarily on the "plain language" rule of statutory interpretation. The court's reading of Section 113(h), as quoted above, led it to conclude that Congress intended only to preclude jurisdiction for pre-enforcement review of specific individual UAOs issued under Section 106 (as well as Section 104 actions). Although specific UAOs could not be challenged in this manner, the court reasoned, the language of Section 113 did not preclude a facial due process challenge to the overarching UAO scheme authorized by Section 106. In allowing the suit to go forward, the circuit panel rejected EPA's primary argument that, because GE was the subject of multiple Section 106 UAOs, its facial constitutionality lawsuit effectively constituted a challenge to those individual orders. One particularly noteworthy UAO related to the cleanup of the Hudson River, where GE is allegedly liable for an estimated $460 million in cost to remove sediment contaminated with PCBs.
The court acknowledged that Congress wanted CERCLA to speed the cleanup of hazardous waste sites by barring pre-enforcement review of specific individual agency actions and orders. Yet, the court reasoned that this provision was not directed at barring challenges to the constitutionality of the statute itself. The court also rejected EPA's assertion that consideration of GE's constitutional claims would frustrate the overall purpose of CERCLA. To the contrary, the court concluded: "A decision on GE's due process claim that is favorable to GE would afford EPA an opportunity to provide due process review at an early stage. A decision rejecting GE's due process claim would remove a later impediment to EPA's enforcement action." 360 F.3d at 194.
Now that the case has been remanded, the next step will be the trial court's ruling on the constitutionality of CERCLA's nearly 25-year-old UAO scheme that essentially requires order recipients to act now and ask questions later. The court's ruling is potentially of major significance relative to EPA's ability to require immediate cleanup actions under CERCLA.

Results of the United Way campaign will not be announced until at least next week as companies wrap up their in-house drives and send in their final numbers.
"Some companies started their drives a little later this year," said Paula Obermark, executive director. "We are still waiting on numbers from five of our Top 12 corporate contributors, as well as others."
As of Tuesday, the campaign was at 71 percent of the $1 million goal with $714,659.75 in gifts and pledges.
"If we add our projections in, we get to $940,326," Obermark told The Missourian. "But the campaign is still ongoing."
The drive officially ended Oct. 31, she said, but companies are given an additional two weeks to get their campaign reports into the United Way office.
The United Way board will meet next Tuesday and Obermark said a decision could be made at that time to extend the drive or end it and post the final result.
"I'm telling people it's not too late to give and if you have never given in the past or made a donation last year and have not done so yet, there is still time," she said. "Every donation, no matter how small or large, is critical and makes a difference."
Becky Buhr, who is co-chairing the campaign, said whatever the final result she feels the drive has been successful, bringing in more than last year which will go a long way to help the agencies and programs served by the United Way.
Obermark said there are many positives with the 2012 campaign and several companies have gone "above and beyond for us.
"As an example, Melton Machine, which was our second largest contributor last year, just blew it out of the water for us with a 20 percent increase. This is just phenomenal — and this is from a company with just 100 employees," she said. "The Bank of Franklin County also reported a 30 percent increase, this is huge."
Despite those successes, Obermark said other corporate gifts have been down and some special events lagged behind from last year.
While the campaign is winding down it's not too late to make a donation, she stressed.
"We know the need is great and the ongoing recession has impacted many people and families," she said.
"Due to increased needs from our agencies over the last four years, we have dipped into our reserves, but have withdrawn the maximum we can and will not be able to do that again this year," she said. "This means that agencies funded last year out of those reserves will not be funded at the same level this year."
Obermark encourages those who have not given to mail in donations to P.O. Box 3, Washington, MO 63090, or go online to www.franklincountyuw.org to make a donation.
Agency funding decisions will not be made until Jan. 8 after all donations and pledges have been received.
This past year, the United Way helped over 70,000 people receive $750,000 in health and human services.
"These services strengthen families, nurture and protect children, assist the elderly and disabled, and provide emergency assistance to those in need," Obermark said. "Please remember that helping others helps us all build better communities — healthier residents, safer neighborhoods, and stronger communities. We all benefit."

Tagged: bug, pagination
I have recently setup a new WordPress site based on Corona theme here: http://tinaztitiz.com/
The pagination on home page works. But pagination in category archive pages does not work.
For example, the following page:
has the same content as the following one:
In all the category pages, the same occurs. The first page repeats in all pages. I installed Wp-Paginate but this didn't make any difference neither.
I added Wp-Paginate plugin and installed it into the theme templates. The problem still continues.
The category page links don't work. For example, http://localhost/wordpress/?cat=3&paged=2 gets the same list of articles as http://localhost/wordpress/?cat=3&paged=1.

World Heritage Fund
© Okavango Delta © Joyce Bestelink
The Fund for the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage of Outstanding Universal Value, called "the World Heritage Fund", was established under Art. 15 of the World Heritage Convention. Its resources consist primarily of assessed contributions by the States Parties of the Convention and may be used only for such purposes as the World Heritage Committee shall define.
At its 40th session (Istanbul/UNESCO, 2016), the World Heritage Committee decided "to initiate a consultation process on annual fee for World Heritage listed properties on a voluntary basis by requesting the Secretariat to send out a survey to States Parties, in order to verify from their local administrations in charge of management of inscribed sites of the possibility of paying an annual fee to the World Heritage Fund, depending on their financial autonomy and capacity to pay and report back to the Committee" (Decision 40 COM 15).

I know there are other threads about restaurants around the Pantages Theatre, but if you're like me(starving student/worker bee) they're out of your price range. So last night before I went to see "Wicked", I was starving, and decided to do some exploring and see what I could find with my limited food budget.
I decided to head south to Sunset Blvd, which is roughly two blocks down from where the Pantages Theatre is. The first place I managed to find that appealed to me was a sushi restaurant called Kabuki. The second restaurant I found that looked good was a Baja Fresh close to the Arc Light Theatre. The other two places I found were my usual last minute resorts to keep myself from starving: KFC and McDonald's.
In the end I eventually picked Baja Fresh(their Baja burrito is so good!), but I was wondering if anyone knew of other frugal finds nearby? After all I know a few other people who are going to see "Wicked", who are also starving students/worker bees :D.

I've tried the tips shown here, but my network connection still seems to drop after a few minutes playing a music or video. I wonder if I'll have to wait for a firmware update to address this problem. In the meantime the only way to use the WDTV Live is to copy the files I want to use onto the attached hard drive and view them from there. That's not how I was hoping this thing would work.
are you hard-wired into a router or are you using a wireless adapter. A problem with wireless is that sometimes there's not enough bandwidth to sustain the video stream, and once it hits that point, the video becomes choppy and sound drops out....just throwing that out there in case that's where you're going wrong.
I've tested it on three Windows XP systems and both worked perfectly with no issues at all.
Quote from: knightar on October 13, 2009, 08:39:23 PMI've tested it on three Windows XP systems and both worked perfectly with no issues at all.Can you help me with the Windows XP system? I can see the folders in the WDTV Live but then it says the folder contains no media, which i know it does have all kinds of compatible media (.mpe, .avi, .jpg files).Thanks!

2009 Chevrolet HHR
5 Recalls & Safety Reports
Recall List for the 2009 Chevrolet HHR
Official recalls have been issued for the 2009 Chevrolet HHR by the NHTSA. The complete details of all recalls are listed below, along with what they cover and the recommended solutions.
Recalls don't cost you anything to get fixed, but most are time-limited, so if your car is affected you should call your local Chevrolet service department immediately!
If you have questions about a recall, write down your VIN & then call Chevrolet customer service.
2009 Chevrolet HHR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH NHTSA Campaign #14E021000
Summary: UCI-FRAM Group is recalling certain LS1328 ignition Switches sold as Wells LS1328, Duralast LS1328, Airtex 1S6097, and Carquest 53-27479, and LS1497 Ignition Switches sold as Wells LS1497, Duralast LS1497, Airtex 1S10961, and Carquest 53-27967, for use on various General Motors model and model year vehicles during repair and replacement of the original ignition switch. The weight on the key ring and/or road conditions or some other jarring event may cause the affected ignition switches to move out of the run position, turning off the engine and disabling the air bags.
Consequence: If the ignition switch moves from the run position to accessory, the car would stall and the air bags will not deploy in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of personal injury to the occupants.
Actions: UCI-FRAM Group has notified its purchasers to quarantine and return all inventory. Any switches already installed in vehicles will be replaced by GM dealers as part of NHTSA recall 14V-047, free of charge. UCI-Fram's purchasers should contact UCI-FRAM Group at 1-800-890-2075. GM vehicle owners requiring additional information on that recall campaign should contact GM at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), 1-800-762-2737 (Pontiac) or 1-800-553-6000 (Saturn). For detailed information & supporting documents, see the official NHTSA page concerning recall #14E021000 »
2009 Chevrolet HHR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION NHTSA Campaign #14V171000
Summary: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2005-2010 Chevrolet Cobalt, 2006-2011 Chevrolet HHR, 2007-2010 Pontiac G5, 2006-2010 Pontiac Solstice, 2003-2007 Saturn Ion, and 2007-2010 Saturn Sky vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the key can be removed from the ignition when the ignition is not in the "Off" position.
Consequence: If the key can be removed from the ignition when the ignition is not in the "off" position, the vehicle could roll away: (a) for an automatic transmission, if the transmission is not in the "Park" position; or (b) for a manual transmission, if the parking brake is not engaged and the transmission is not in the "Reverse" position. This potential for rollaway increases the risk for a crash and occupant or pedestrian injuries.
Actions: General Motors will notify owners, and for vehicles that were built with the defective ignition cylinder and have not previously had the ignition cylinder replaced with the redesigned part, dealers will replace the ignition cylinder and cut and, if necessary, re-learn two ignition/door keys for each vehicle. For vehicles that were built with the redesigned ignition cylinder or had the ignition cylinder replaced with the redesigned part, dealers will cut and, if necessary, re-learn two ignition/door keys for each vehicle. The recall began on April 18, 2014. Chevrolet owners may contact General Motors at 1-800-222-1020, Pontiac owners at 1-800-762-2737, and Saturn owners at 1-800-553-6000. General Motors' number for this recall is 14113 for the ignition lock cylinder and key replacement, and 14133 for only key replacements. Note: Until a vehicle has been remedied, owners and operators are advised that when exiting, to be sure that the vehicle is in "Park, " or in the case of a manual transmission, that the vehicle is in the "Reverse" position and the parking brake is engaged. For detailed information & supporting documents, see the official NHTSA page concerning recall #14V171000 »
2009 Chevrolet HHR STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM NHTSA Campaign #14V153000
Summary: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2004-2006 and 2008-2009 Chevrolet Malibu, 2004-2006 Malibu Maxx, 2009-2010 HHR (non-turbo), 2010 Cobalt, 2008-2009 Saturn Aura and 2004-2007 Ion, and 2005-2009 Pontiac G6. In the affected vehicles, there may be a sudden loss of electric power steering (EPS) assist that could occur at any time while driving.
Consequence: If power steering assist is lost, greater driver effort would be required to steer the vehicle at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash.
Actions: GM will notify owners, and dealers will perform one of four bulletins. Parts are not currently available. GM expects to send an interim notification around May 28, 2014. When parts are available, owners will be mailed a second letter to come in to have the applicable bulletin applied. Bulletin 14115 covers model year 2004-2007 Saturn Ion, 2009-2010 Chevrolet HHR and 2010 Chevrolet Cobalts. Dealers will replace the EPS motor. Bulletin 14116 covers model year 2004-2006 Chevrolet Malibu and Malibu Maxx, 2005-2006 Pontiac G6 and 2008-2009 Chevrolet Malibu, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura built from March 1, 2008, through June 27, 2008. Dealers will replace the torque sensor assembly. Bulletin 14117 covers model year 2008 Chevrolet Malibu, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura built from February 1, 2008, through February 28, 2008. Dealers will replace the torque sensor assembly and EPS motor controller unit. Bulletin 14118 covers model year 2008 Chevrolet Malibu, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura built from October 1, 2007, through January 31, 2008. Dealers will replace the EPS motor controller unit. The recall began on July 17, 2014. Owners may contact Chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438, Saturn at 1-800-553-6000, and Pontiac at 1-800-620-7668. GM's number for this recall is N140115. Note: GM bulletin number 14119 will be implemented for model year 2006-2008 and early production of 2009 Chevrolet HHR (non-turbo) and model year 2003 Saturn ION to provide EPS Motor replacement for the life of the vehicle. For detailed information & supporting documents, see the official NHTSA page concerning recall #14V153000 »
2009 Chevrolet HHR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH, AIR BAGS NHTSA Campaign #14V047000
Summary: This defect can affect the safe operation of the airbag system. Until this recall is performed, customers should remove all items from their key rings, leaving only the ignition key. The key fob (if applicable), should also be removed from the key ring. General Motors LLC (GM) notified the agency on February 10, 2014 that they are recalling 619,122 model year 2005-2007 Chevrolet Cobalt, and 2007 Pontiac G5 vehicles.

In these models, the weight on the key ring and/or road conditions or some other jarring event may cause the ignition switch to move out of the run position, turning off the engine. On March 27, 2014, GM notified the agency that the defective ignition switches may have been used as service replacement parts on other vehicles, and as a result GM will be recalling certain model year 2008-2010 Chevrolet Cobalt, Saturn Sky, and Pontiac G5 and Solstice, and 2008-2011 Chevrolet HHR vehicles. The part numbers for the service parts are 10392423 (a/k/a ACDelco D1461F), 10392737, 15857948, 15854953, 15896640, and 25846762. This expansion represents an additional 823,788 vehicles.
Consequence: If the key is not in the run position, the air bags may not deploy if the vehicle is involved in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Actions: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the ignition switch, free of charge. An interim notification was issued to owners of 2007 and earlier models on March 10, 2014, informing them of the safety defect. Owners of 2008 and later vehicles will be mailed an interim letter on April 21, 2014. All affected owners will receive another letter once parts are available. The recall began on April 18, 2014. Owners may contact Chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020, Pontiac at 1-800-762-2737 or Saturn at 1-800-553-6000. GM's number for the initial recall is 13454 and 14063 for the expansion. GM�s recall number for the vehicles that may have received the replacement parts is 14092. Note: Until the recall repairs have been performed, it is very important that customers remove all items from their key rings, leaving only the vehicle key. The key fob (if applicable), should also be removed from the key ring. Always wear your seatbelt.

2009 Chevrolet HHR POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION:LEVER AND LINKAGE:COLUMN SHIFT NHTSA Campaign #09V073000
Summary: General Motors is recalling 276,729 MY 2009 Buick enclave, Chevrolet cobalt, HHR, Malibu, traverse, GMC acadia, Pontiac G5, G6 and Saturn aura and outlook passenger vehicles. These vehicles fail to comply with federal motor vehicles safety standard 102, "transmission shift position sequence, starter interlock, and transmission braking effect", and FMVSS 114, "theft protection and rollaway prevention". on some of these vehicles, the transmission shift cable adjustment clip may not be fully engaged. If the clip is not fully engaged, the shift lever and the actual position of the transmission gear may not match. With this condition, the drive could move the shifter to "park" and remove the ignition key, but the transmission gear may not be in "park".
Consequence: The driver may not be able to restart the vehicle and the vehicle could roll away after the driver has exited the vehicle, resulting in a possible crash without prior warning.
Actions: Dealers will inspect and ensure that the shift cable adjustment clip is fully engaged. In the event that the clip does not engage, the shift cable will be replaced free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on or before March 24, 2009.

With the state of the economy and the hardships millions of people go through everyday, finding a job is not as easy as it used to be. This is why it is crucial you do your research to learn of tips to help you land a job. The following article will provide you with helpful employment tips.
A good finance tip if you're self-employed is to always think about the future and plan ahead of time. It's easy to get caught up in the here and now, thinking about only the money you can make now, but it's even more important to keep revenue coming in down the road.
A great tip for any job is to have perfect attendance. When companies are looking to lay off workers they often times look at attendance. They'd rather not pay benefits to the no-shows, so they will be first to go. By showing up every day you protect your own wallet in the long run.
When looking for a job try to find one that fits your personality type. For example, if you are shy and like working on projects alone, a job that requires you to be part of, and contribute to a larger team may be a bad choice. Carefully assess who you are, and find a job that fits that perfectly.
If there is a particular company you are interested in working for, do not hesitate to contact them directly to see what they have available. There may be some jobs available that they have not had to chance to publicly advertise for. Getting in contact with them right away can give you a bit of an advantage.
To a certain extent, be willing to swallow your pride. You may feel that you should only accept a certain type of job, with a certain type of salary. However, most jobs are better than no jobs, as you will continue to gain experience and references while working. Therefore, be flexible with what you are looking for.
Try not to listen to all the press about the dwindling job market and how difficult it is to find a job. This will only seek to discourage you. There are plenty of companies out there and many are hiring. While there may be more people looking for jobs, that simply means that you need to improve your resume and interviewing skills in order to stand out. Think positively.
It is a good idea to have clear job goals in mind before you start applying for any jobs. Many interviewers ask where you see yourself in the future, and it will make you look good if you can give them a solid answer without any hesitation or deep thought.
Try doing a practice interview before you go to interview for a new job. Have a friend or family member play the role of the interviewer. This will help you be prepared when you go to your interview. It will also help you remain calm and collected when you are at your interview because you are better prepared.
Keep in touch with your former employers if you left in good standing. You never know if a job opening will come up in which you are qualified for. Keeping your established business network healthy will prevent you from being forgotten. In addition, it is easier for a former employer to give you a glowing recommendation if they remember you.
If you are finding it difficult to get a job in a certain field, you may find it helpful to go back to school. In the meantime, you can get a part-time job to help you survive as you go to school. The more education you have, the easier it will be for you to get a job.
When you are applying to companies online and they respond to you, make sure that you get in touch with them immediately to set up an interview. Rarely will a company wait on you, as you will need to take the initiative to get this done. This will help to set yourself up for an interview and potentially your next long term job.
In conclusion, the economy has made it difficult for people to find a job. For this reason alone, it's important you do as much research as possible to help you become gainfully employed. Use the tips this article has provide you with, and you should have a job in no time.

Comments about ESP LTD Surveyor 400 Bass:
The neck on this bass is really as comfortable as the ibanez soundgear necks, yet this bass sounds waay beefier. Great feel, very tweakable. Swamp ash body makes for a very alive and bouncy tone when on the bridge pickup or with the bass knob down a little.
Comments about ESP LTD Surveyor 400 Bass:
This bass has great tone, but most of all, great possibilities for playing around with it. It features a 3-band EQ so you can highlight your favorite frequencies, single-coil and double-coil pickups (the humbucker even has a coil tap switch). It's made of Ash with a maple neck and fretboard and plays like a charm. the only downside is its bolt-on construction, but it makes up for that with heavenly clear tones and great playability.
Comments about ESP LTD Surveyor 400 Bass:
This bass blows away the mexican fender bass, and I can pull out a fender tone. Also the main reason why I bought this bass over the Mexican Fender bass, was the good neck. The action was low and the neck was straight without any fret buzzing, but when I play three different Mexican Fender basses, Jazz and P-bass I had a high action with lots of fret buzz. Also with some good eq setting this bass with suit any bass player. In addition the bass has a really nice hardware. So the price is about right, but maybe a little high with the recent mark up

North of the Border, 37% of private investors surveyed by Bank of Scotland Private Banking held a positive view of the asset class while 17% were negative. UK-wide, 47% of investors were bullish against 9% downbeat.
Scots are becoming more cautious about the prospects for UK property with 45% holding a positive view and 17% negative in contrast to an increasingly bullish mood UK-wide.

Ashish Misra, head of investment policy at Bank of Scotland Private Banking, said: "The gap between Scottish investor sentiment towards UK property and the rest of the UK is perhaps reflective of the rate that property values are rising.
"South East England is certainly seeing prices rise faster than other parts of the UK so while Scots are seeing value in property, they are holding a view perhaps more in keeping with their local observations."

DHS Brews Up Cyber Storm 2By Brian Prince | Posted 02-13-2007
The test, called Cyber Storm 2, is the second of its kind, following a week-long simulation in 2006 that involved 115 private international and domestic companies and organizations. Last year's scenario simulated a combined physical and Internet-based attack on both the public and private sector.
Greg Garcia, assistant secretary for cyber-security and telecommunications at the DHS, stressed on Feb. 8 at the RSA Conference in San Francisco that the government and businesses need to exercise, drill and remain vigilant.
"Last year we completed Cyber Storm 1, and Cyber Storm 2 is coming up and will help us assess how much we have improved our planning and response to major attacks. This type of work will truly strengthen us all, and we're quite serious about the effort," Garcia said.
For advice on how to secure your network and applications, as well as the latest security news, visit Ziff Davis Internet's Security IT Hub.
Symantec is one of the corporations participating in the upcoming exercise, said Tiffany Jones, senior regional manager for government relations for Symantec, based in Cupertino, Calif. "At the end of the day, the object here is to make sure when something really does happen we are prepared," she said.
Jones added that the recent attack on the root servers that manage the Internet underscored the importance of redundancy, and of communication and cooperation between businesses and the government.
Cyber Storm 1 uncovered communication problems between public and private sector organizations in the event of attacks on IT infrastructure. While the test does not focus on problems associated with specific technologies, it does attempt to ensure that government and businesses are on the same page in the event of an emergency, Jones said.

"It's important to look at the mission of the office of Cyber Security and Telecommunications within the context of the overall Department of Homeland Security mission and how it all aligns," Garcia said. "The combined goal will be to continue to protect our nation from dangerous people, including malicious activities such as malware, coming from other countries as well as from dangerous goods, including exploit tools, or denial of service attacks that can emanate from anywhere in world."

ELYRIA – Friendly's on East Broad Street has closed, along with two other "under-performing" restaurants in Ohio, according to a company spokeswoman.
The restaurant at 204 East Broad St. was closed, along with restaurants in Sandusky and Defiance. Apex Eagle Hospitality, Inc., a franchisee who owns and operates 19 Friendly's restaurants in Ohio, announced the closures on Sunday, according to a news release.
The company said the restaurants closed their doors Sunday, but the Elyria Friendly's did not close until after breakfast on Monday.
"We're disappointed to announce the closing of three of our Friendly's restaurants. Unfortunately, the restaurants that are closing have been under-performing for quite some time, and despite our best efforts to turn them around, we were unable to improve their performance," said Dan DiGiambattista and Kerry Janke, Principals of Apex Eagle Hospitality, Inc., in a news release. "Moving forward, we hope to re-engage customers that were previously visiting the restaurants that were affected by this closing, by having them dine at one of our 16 remaining Friendly's restaurants in Ohio."
Apex Eagle Hospitality, Inc. has been a Friendly's franchisee since 2005. It will continue to own and operate 16 Friendly's locations in Ohio, and Friendly's employees who were affected by the closing of the Elyria, Sandusky and Defiance restaurants, have been offered jobs at nearby Friendly's locations, according to the company.

Toronto Street Photos on film (m28 f3.5)
Thanks Mike, Toronto is fairly distinct once you've been here, I'm glad it was recognizable. I wasnt going to push it, but to get f11-16 I realized I would have to if i wanted to keep a fast shutter.
J Posthuman, the project I ended up handing in theme was "intimate life". I didn't go with what first came to mind,but decided to focus on why defines an intimate moment, and like most things it would be the periods lacking in intimacy. I also wanted to focus on the role technology and society has, and how the idea's of intimacy change over time. And how it is possible to have intimate moments in public (intimacy as closeness/connection, not sexual) when surrounded by thousands of people somewhat paradoxically.
I photographed people on the street, at night, usually just by striking up a conversation, then eventually explaining the project and asking if they're willing to participate. If i mention that it's for school, and it's film, they're even more likely to be willing. I tried to find people who looked like they were waiting (and who actually were) for someone, and that's what the photos were mainly of, with one exception of a couple to contrast and show the moments the subjects were waiting for.

Measuring the Elusive: All You Need to Know About Hunting for Neutrinos in the Midwest
|Thursday, 11 Oct 2012 from 4:10 pm to 5:00 pm
|Physics 0005
Neutrinos possibly hold the key to some of the most fundamental questions still to be answered: why is the Universe dominated only by matter and what role did neutrinos play in the evolution of the universe? The centerpiece of the high energy physics experimental program in the US is a series of neutrino oscillation experiments that seek to answer these questions. These experiments use a powerful source of neutrinos at Fermilab directed towards northern Minnesota. By observing the phenomena of neutrino oscillations, the MINOS experiment has made the world's best measurement of neutrino mass difference as well as measurements of several other neutrino mixing parameters. The NOvA experiment, currently under construction, will soon begin probing the existence of CP violation in the leptonic sector. The high energy physics community has already begun planning the next generation experiment that will seek to complete the puzzle of neutrino properties. This new experiment will require massive detectors and possibly new advances in instrumentation. In this talk, we will discuss the challenges of observing the elusive neutrinos in these experiments, what they might tell us about the Universe and how studying neutrinos might jump start future technological advances.

Managing kids can be a challenge. One moment they're snuggling up for stories and introducing you to their imaginary friends. The next, they're biting their siblings and painting the new puppy purple.
How do you cope? You plan ahead for all kinds of possibilities!
There's no doubt that babysitting requires skills in creativity, adventure, and play. But those skills are no help if you don't know what to do when a kid has a playground tumble or you're not prepared for the realities of a 2-year-old's temper.
Planning starts before you get a babysitting job. To get clients, you need to know the best way to find them. If you're new to babysitting, you might want to spread the word only to family, friends, and neighbors until you get more experience.
Babysitting is about your safety and comfort level as well as the kids'. Find out if a job is right for you by asking careful questions about what the family expects. Plan how you'll get to and from jobs safely and know how you'll stay in control in an unfamiliar house.
Think ahead about the kids you'd like to care for. If you're not comfortable looking after newborns or kids with special needs, don't take that job. Wait for the next opportunity to come along. It will!
Do you know how to change a diaper? How to bathe a child? Find out before you show up for your first day of work.
Your first priority in babysitting is to keep kids safe. Being a good babysitter means knowing how to handle everything from a splinter to a real emergency.
The best time to prepare for an event is before it happens. Yes, it's very unlikely the child you're looking after will eat something poisonous. But knowing where to find the poison control number gives you enormous peace of mind.
Even when it comes to something as simple as fixing lunch, a little advance planning saves you time and worry. Does the child have any food allergies? Which foods are choking hazards for toddlers? How will you ensure young kids or babies stay safe and out of trouble while you prepare a meal?
Young children demand your time and attention every second. They also need structure, such as regular meal and nap times. Organize your day, including what time the kids will eat, what you'll feed them, when they nap, and for how long.
The best way to prepare for all kinds of babysitting possibilities is to take a babysitting training or safety course. Your local community center or hospital might offer one. It also helps to talk to experienced babysitters to see how they do things.
Parents love babysitters who help kids have fun and learn — while still reinforcing rules and keeping discipline. Ask kids to show you their favorite toys. Find out from parents and other babysitters what games kids of different ages like to play.
Get the kids outdoors if you can. Take them to a playground if the parents say it's OK. Simple games like tag and hide and seek get kids active and help them stay fit (a big topic these days). Running around outside also tires kids out so they nap and sleep well, which parents will probably appreciate!
If you can't walk to a park or play in a yard, ask parents about other options in the neighborhood. Urban areas may have skating rinks, libraries, or community centers within walking distance — just be sure to ask parents if it's OK to take the kids there. If outdoors doesn't work out, get creative indoors. Dancing with the kids is great exercise, too.
TVs and computers have become the go-to entertainment for many kids these days, but that's not always a good thing. Doctors and parenting experts recommend less screen time for kids, so many parents have set time limits on electronics. Find out what the house rules are.
Speaking of rules, it's tempting to be the "cool" babysitter who lets kids get away with things parents never allow. But you can't be a child's friend all the time. Know when to say no and when it's OK to let something small go — like letting kids stay up 15 minutes past bedtime on occasion.
Kids will challenge you. Pushing boundaries to see how much they can get away with is a normal way kids (even toddlers) learn and figure out where they stand. But even though kids try to fight rules, they actually need and thrive best on structure and limits. So check in with parents to find out what the rules are, then follow them — even if you don't agree with them! Not only will this help keep things consistent for the kids, you'll gain their respect and trust.
The best babysitters think of the job as a responsibility first, with having fun (or earning money) second. Few things are as rewarding as knowing you've earned a child's trust and affection.

For a while Paolo Di Canio seemed in danger of finishing this match naked. The more frustrated the Italian grew at his team's dishevelled display, the more clothes he discarded. Midway through the first half he hurled his coat into the dugout, early in the second he jettisoned his suit jacket, so when Lee Cook scored what turned out to be the winning goal for Leyton Orient in the 59th minute, the pitchside photographers who track Di Canio's every strop began to look forward to a bumper payday.
"I was very hot and not just because of the weather," said Di Canio, who resisted the urge to remove any further garments, although he did twice have to be spoken to by the referee for stomping onto the pitch to complain about time-wasting as the minutes ticked away. "But I throw my jacket around [rather] than treat my players that way," reasoned the manager, which is not to say he refrained from tearing strips of his squad after what he described as Swindon's worst performance in his 15-month tenure at the club.
Di Canio has emerged as one of the most interesting managerial prospects in England since surprisingly taking charge at the Country Ground – and the intrigue is set to grow now that his team have lost three matches in a row for the first time in his reign. How he responds to this adversity will be fascinating, as will his players' reaction to his response.
The manager has publicly lambasted several members of his squad already this season, but despite deteriorating performances, he has no intention of sparing their feelings now. "I don't change, they have to change," said Di Canio before pointing out that last season's surge to the League Two title began after he publicly denounced the players as "Chihuahuas" following a meek start to that campaign. He has, however, made one concession to the squad, reluctantly granting them [Sunday] off after three matches in six days.
"After an empty performance they say they need a day off and I say 'OK, if that is the magic potion to help us win at Carlisle next week, you can have it'. But that is also a sign of a weak mentality. I would also like a day off but I work 24 hours a day to get better. I analyse myself and they need to analyse themselves too. Maybe I overestimated them after our good start to the season."
And what a good start it was. Swindon won four of their first five matches after last season's excellent promotion, the most recent victory, just two weeks ago, being a 4-3 triumph over Stoke City in the League Cup. But the manager turned as soon as results went bad, ridiculing the goalkeeper Wes Foderingham after last week's 4-1 defeat at Preston and blaming the defender Aden Flint for the mid-week elimination from the Johnstone's Paint Trophy by local rivals Oxford United. Both those players say they have accepted the manager's comments, but Di Canio's challenging methods have led to fall-outs with several players, notably Leon Clarke, the striker who left within two weeks of joining last season, following a fight with the manager, and Paul Caddis, the erstwhile captain who was loaned out to Birmingham after a dispute with Di Canio in the summer. "The manager has a right to be upset with us after that one," said the midfielder Raffaele De Vita after the latest defeat.
Orient arrived at Swindon without a point to their name this season, but it was the hosts who looked short of confidence as the visitors were sharper and more cohesive. Only shoddy finishing by Cook and Kevin Lisbie prevented Orient from taking the lead in a first half in which Swindon did not have a shot on target despite their most creative player, Matt Ritchie, returning from injury after missing the last two defeats.
Swindon improved slightly in the second period and Ritchie twice forced saves with snapshots. But Orient responded and seized the lead just before the hour mark when Dean Cox slashed a cross from Leon McSweeney into the path of Cook, who was unmarked as he fired into the net from six yards. Di Canio made three substitutions in an attempt to get back into the game and one of them, Adam Rooney, should have equalised in the 66th minute. Collecting a flick-on from a throw-in, the striker held off the defender but steered a low shot wide with only the goalkeeper to beat.

The Flyers fan caught on camera beating up two Rangers fans – knocking one unconscious -- after the Winter Classic will spend at least almost a year on house arrest.
A Philadelphia judge on Friday sentenced Glassboro, N.J. resident Dennis Veteri, 33, to 11 1/2 to 23 months of house arrest followed by five years of probation, according to court records.
On Jan. 2 after the NHL Winter Classic at Citizens Bank Park, Veteri and a group of other Flyers fans attacked two Rangers fans, one of whom was an off-duty Woodbridge, N.J., outside of Geno's Steaks in South Philly.
Veteri, who was at a nearby bar with some friends before the fight, was caught on camera knocking Officer Neil Auricchio, who was in Philly for the game, out cold. Police later identified Veteri as the instigator in the drunken brawl.
"As we all saw on the video it is a vicious beating with the conclusion of a knock down punch which knocks the police officer unconscious," said Philadelphia Police Capt. Laurence Nodiff
Veteri pleaded guilty in August to aggravated assault and possessing instruments of crime, according to court records.
The Philadelphia Daily News reports that prosecutors asked for prison time, but Veteri's lawyer says his client is "a good man who had a bad day."
Auricchio, who is also an Iraq War veteran, was beaten unconscious and suffered broken eye socket bones and lacerations.
"I was overwhelmed by a mob and two to three guys starting punching me, kicking me," Auricchio told NBC New York. "I get back to my feet and that blindside punch knocks me unconscious."
Veteri will be electronically monitored. He is permitted to leave his home for work and must also attend drug/alcohol treatment, according to court records.

CUMMING, Ga. —This week, Carrabba's Italian Grill opened its doors in Cumming, bringing a new concept of the restaurant to the Avenue Forsyth.
Carrabba's, which is headed by Jaimie Cullinan, opened at 4 p.m. Aug. 20. To show its support of the local communities, 50 percent of Carrabba's opening night sales (up to $5,000) will be donated to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Forsyth.
"Being part of this community means we'll be working with the community a lot," Cullinan said last week during a preview of their menu to Children's officials.
Beth Buursema, community outreach for Children's Healthcare in Forsyth, said the donation will go a long way in making a difference in the lives of many children and their families.
"Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Forsyth relies on the generous financial and volunteer support of our community, and we are honored that Carrabba's has chosen the organization as its opening night charity," Buursema said.
The Italian restaurant, 420 Peachtree Parkway, boasts a new modern look and feel, said Cullinan.
"This is a new design for us," Cullinan said. "Our customers will be pleased with the more updated look."
Cullinan comes to Cumming from his previous role as regional manager for Ruby Tuesday, where he oversaw 62 restaurants. He said his favorite dish at his new establishment is the veal marsala.
"You put our marsala sauce in anything and it's delicious," he said.
In addition to dishes prepared with ingredients from around the world — the calamari comes from Thailand, because it's the freshest there — there's a full bar and 43 brands of wine.
Featuring an open kitchen and a relaxed casual dining room, about 70 new hires have joined the team to learn the chops. The weekend prior to opening, the staff hosted their families to enjoy a taste of their made-from-scratch food at no cost. It was also a chance to make mistakes prior to show time.
"The Carrabba's team strives to deliver passion, energy and excitement each and every day," Cullinan said. "We look forward to providing the Cumming community a warm and welcoming atmosphere with an intimate dining experience."

The issue is not whether West Contra Costa residents should try to keep the region's busiest emergency room open — the question is, at what cost?
The West Contra Costa Healthcare District is asking voters to approve another property tax to rescue Doctors Medical Center in San Pablo. This one would more than triple the current charge for the typical homeowner, bringing the total to $309 a year.
This would be a permanent tax, with no sunset, even if the hospital merges with, or is acquired by, another health care system. Indeed, the tax is intended solely to bolster the hospital's cash flow to make it a more-attractive takeover target.
This isn't the solution — not at this price. It's throwing good money after bad.
This is the third time hospital officials have gone to the tax well. In 2004, voters approved a $52 parcel tax. In 2011, with our support, hospital officials convinced voters to add another $47, for a total of $99.
Now, in a mail-in ballot scheduled for May, comes a proposal for a 14-cent-per-square-foot tax. Fourteen cents doesn't sound like much until you do the math. For a 1,500-square-foot home, that's another $210 per year, more than twice the previous two taxes combined.
In 2011, we urged district officials to work quickly to find a permanent solution before this year, when projections showed the district would run out of money.
That day has come. There has been no progress in 21/2 years. District officials are still talking about the savior hospital with which it can merge. Meanwhile, it's hemorrhaging money and going deeper in debt.
The hospital now loses roughly $20 million a year, even with the two current tax measures. Worse, to keep the hospital afloat since 2011, the district borrowed $40 million. The money's gone, but the loan won't be paid off until 2042.
It's time for district residents to cut their losses. Even if the district finds a partner, it would have to go back to voters again for another tax to fund construction of a new hospital because the current one is not earthquake safe.
Most of the hospital's services can be provided elsewhere. The concern — and it's a big one — is the loss of the emergency room. Without it, residents will be forced to drive further when they need lifesaving help.
They'll wind up at other facilities that, like Doctors Medical Center currently, must, and should, accept them, regardless of their ability to pay. Maybe then those hospitals will cooperate in finding a long-term, cost-effective solution rather than continuing to ignore the problem.
