Battle Lines
Contractors must be willing to face risks of a changing landscape (Guest Blog)
- Lee Dougherty
- Partner, Fluet, Huber and Hoang PLC- Washington Business Journal
Vaguely defined contract vehicles, like indefinite delivery/ indefinite quantity contracts, are the way of the future, and contractors have to learn to compete for them.
Protesting contractor: Qwest Government Services Inc., doing business as CenturyLink QGS, Arlington.
Contracting agency: Interior Department.
Protest issue: Whether a solicitation adequately set out an agency's requirements, provided sufficient information to intelligently prepare a proposal and placed too much risk on the contractor.
Decision: Denied by the Government Accountability Office, March 7.
Postmortem: Times they are a changing. When Bob Dylan first sang these words in 1964, there was no such thing as an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract, which limits competition to a smaller number of competitors for a set period.
The ID/IQ contract that we know today didn't really come into being until the early 1980s and was not used significantly until the 1990s. Most contracts in 1964 were primarily for goods and were conducted on something much closer to a lowest-price technically acceptable basis.
I doubt even the most seasoned government contractor at that time would have imagined a billion-dollar contract for services that were not clearly defined and which would exclude most competition for up to a decade.
In 2010, the U.S. chief information officer issued his "25 point plan" to reform federal information technology management. Part of that plan included a "cloud-first" policy. One of the goals listed in the plan was that "the Federal Government [would] be able to provision services like nimble start-up companies."

(HILLSBOROUGH, NC) -- Adam & Eve has become the official sponsor for KSEXradio.com, the hottest spot on the web for live triple-X radio. Adam and Eve has become KSEX's "Executive Sponsor" for the station, in which everything KSEXradio presents will involve Adam & Eve. So, what does it all mean, now that KSEXradio.com is presented by Adam and Eve? Adam and Eve will be featured in everything from print to advertising, audio commercials, station promotions, and live events held by KSEXradio.com . With this new deal, Adam and Eve has agreed to "partner" up with KSEXradio in a new DVD line to come out in 2004. The theme of the series of DVDs will be similar to that of the KSEXradio format -- uninhibited, real sex. These reality TV-style DVDs will contain random shows that appear on KSEXradio.com. Now, the consumer can finally own and keep what goes on deep within the walls of KSEXradio.com. KSEXradio.com's Program Director Wankus said, "I'm very excited about this new relationship with Adam and Eve. When we first chased the idea of doing videos, we tinkered around with a bunch of small companies that looked to us for advice. We're an internet company putting out a great product but we didn't know anything about how to market porn flicks. Finally, we decided that if we were going to do it, we were going to go with the best. We at KSEX are looking forward to the future between our two companies." "We're really excited about the partnership, both the adult talent and the business partnership," says Sean Trotter, Chief Technical Officer at Adam & Eve. With Adam & Eve as a sponsor, KSEXradio.com will have access to Adam & Eve's incredible marketing machine and distribution for KSEXradio.com For talent concerned that they will have to take part in every sex scene, "This isn't the case," says Wankus. "We at KSEX do not expect our normal flurry of guests to come on and perform sex scenes. The regularly scheduled radio shows are designed for promotional purposes, and guests will come in and do what they normally feel comfortable doing at those times." Not only will the DVDs include material from the broadcasts, but scenes done before and after the shows, giving the consumer the inside scoop on what really goes on at KSEX when the microphones aren't on! Adam & Eve created the adult mail order industry in 1974 as the first mail order condom distributor at a time when cheap, effective contraception was unavailable in most areas. Since then, Adam & Eve has set the standard for adult retail with a range of products including adult videos and DVDs featuring Carmen Luvana, Jenna Jameson, Chloe and more, lingerie and sex toys. In 1996 Adam & Eve led the way into the digital millennium by becoming one of the first, and certainly the largest, adult retailers on the web when it launched AdamEve.com. Now, thanks to Phil Harvey's vision and the support of over 300 employees and millions of satisfied customers, Adam & Eve stands for sexual freedom, intimacy and safety through its products, services and health information. For more information, etc., please contact: Katy Zvolerin, Adam & Eve, firstname.lastname@example.com, 919.644.8100 x 3121 Brian Gross, BSG PR firstname.lastname@example.com, 818-343-3673 BSGPR.com

What would you recommend for an appetite suppressant that is safe to use for a 75-year-old woman with high blood pressure?
- Q: What would you recommend for an appetite suppressant that is safe to use for a 75-year-old woman with high blood pressure? I am trying to lose 30 pounds because of high blood pressure and high cholesterol.
- A: There are many over-the-counter and herbal supplement products advertised as appetite suppressants. Generally, these products work by stimulating the body into thinking it is not hungry. The side effects of these products include increased heart rate and blood pressure and addiction with long-term use. Remember, the basic principle of weight loss is to eat fewer calories than your body uses. Exercise not only can help you lose weight by using more of the calories you take in, but physical activity has been shown to lower blood pressure on its own. There is no one weight-loss product that can work for every person. It is important to find an eating and fitness plan that works for you. For more information about weight loss, please visit http://www.everydayhealth.com/weight/weight-loss.aspx and consult with your health care practitioner. Michelle McDermott, PharmD

Last week, the Superior Substance Abuse Coalition, Pinal County Sheriff's Office and town of Superior proudly opened the first medicine disposal box in Superior. The box is located inside the Superior Police Station, 734 Main St., and can be accessed through the lobby.
Like boxes installed throughout the county, the medicine disposal box has some strict rules governing it:
Accepted Items
• Prescriptions
• Prescription Patches
• Prescription Medications
• Over-the-Counter Medications
• Vitamins
• Samples
• Pet Medications
Items that are NOT accepted:
• Hydrogen Peroxide
• Inhalers
• Aerosol Cans
• Ointments, Lotions or Liquids
• Medication from Businesses or Clinics
• Needles (Sharps)
• Thermometers
But what can you do with items that are not accepted? A Copper Corridor pharmacist has these suggestions.
For liquids like cough syrup
Remove your name and prescription number from the bottle. Peel the labels off completely or use a permanent marker to hide the information. Then put used coffee grounds, kitty litter or even dirt into the bottle – enough to make sure that the liquid can't be consumed. Put the lid back on the bottle and duct tape it closed. Then dispose of the bottle in the household trash.
For needles (sharps)
Put the used needles into an old bleach or laundry bottle. When the bottle is approximately three-quarters full, duct tape the lid closed. With a permanent marker, write "Caution! Sharps!" or "Biohazard! Sharps!" on the side of the bottle. She said that the bottle can be taken to any pharmacy or doctor's office and it would be disposed with the rest of the clinic's sharps. This method is also good for lancets used by diabetics to check their blood sugar levels.
For inhaler tubes and other goodies
Inhaler tubes, the pharmacist said, can just be thrown away in the household trash. Ointments can also be thrown away in the household trash.
The medication disposal box will be overseen by the Pinal County Sheriff's Office. It will be emptied by the department and the deposited medications will be destroyed by their experts.

The hotel is located in a very convenient location. Many local restaurants are within walking distance, making it convenient to leave your car in the... garage and getting some exercise after work on the way to dinner. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable. Breakfast being served at 6:30 in the morning is a big advantage for people needing to get to work. I highly recommend this hotel for work.

Sometimes, perhaps even to say many times would not be an exaggeration, what you see in football isn't really what you think you see.
We all know, of course, about the trickery that goes on in the backfield where the quarterback becomes a sleight-of-hand expert, slipping the football into the belly of a running back and pulling it out. We know, too, of punters who will line up in punt formation only as a ruse to take the ball around left end or right as defenders peel back to defend a punt that never comes.
But we are not talking about that today. Instead, we are talking about the way there is a certain inbreeding within the game that produces offenses or defenses that may not look the same on the surface but that possess many of the same characteristics to be considered of the genre, if not gender.
And that is exactly the case this weekend when West Virginia University travels to Norman, Okla., to play the Oklahoma Sooners in a game that may become a measuring stick of where each team belongs in this season's Big 12.
On the surface, people do not seem to compare what WVU's Dana Holgorsen does with what Oklahoma's Bob Stoops does offensively, yet they have plucked much of what's fruitful in their offenses from the same tree.
That, you see, is what makes what Holgorsen pulled off last year so startling a coaching move, as he moved Tavon Austin to running back for the first time in his collegiate career and rushed him for a school-record 344 yards.
It would have been a strategy move of historic proportions, maybe even matching Tom Osborne's long-ago "Fumblerooski" play if WVU had been able to come out on top in the 50-49 game, but the Mountaineers could not.
Most interesting out of it today, however, is that tape of the game is totally useless to both coaches, for so much has changed since a year ago, WVU going away from its Air Raid attack and Austin being gone and the Sooners looking far more like Barry Switzer's old wishbone triple-option than the wide-open passing game last year that allowed Landry Jones to throw for six scores against the Mountaineers.
The conversation about all this began Tuesday in Holgorsen's weekly press conference when it was brought up that Holgorsen's former offensive line coach, Bill Bedenbaugh, now serves in the same capacity at Oklahoma.
Did that not give Stoops and Co. the advantage of added insight into what Holgorsen likes to do?
Not at all, said Holgorsen.
"It goes way deeper than that. It goes back to Bob Stoops' first year, 2000, I believe, and Mike Leach was his offensive coordinator," Holgorsen said.
Leach, of course, is the inventor of Holgorsen's uptempo, spread offense and of the passing game that often produces 50 to 70 passes in an afternoon ... the one Geno Smith ran at WVU a year ago.
So it is that Stoops was into this more than a decade ago, and because of that he has Josh Huepel as his offensive coordinator, as well as his brother, Mike Stoops, on the defensive side, all involved in ways with Holgorsen and his offense.
"I've known Josh Huepel for a long time; I've known Mike Stoops," Holgorsen said. "We've competed against each other for 15 years, and we've been to clinics together. We've been hanging out together."
The result of that is that they didn't need Bedenbaugh for his input on that.
"They know our offense better than anybody else that's out there," Holgorsen said. "Adding Bill, I don't know what that will do for them because they already know the offense."
They know it so well that Holgorsen is almost paranoid.
"You have to be careful with your signals; you have to be careful with your tendencies; you have to be careful with your specific route combinations, and they are as good as anyone in the country defending it," he said.
Things, however, get really interesting now because neither coach has the ideal quarterback to be throwing the ball all over the lot, so they have had to change their approach, but not their philosophies.
"You see gradual changes," Holgorsen said. "You've seen gradual changes with our offense in the three years I've been here. I went from Texas Tech to Houston, Houston to Oklahoma State, Oklahoma State to West Virginia, and there were changes. Changes will happen.
"The base structure of the offenses are still similar. I think some of the formations are still called the same. You look at their offense last week against Louisiana-Monroe; there were a lot of sets that were the same. Some of the plays were the same. Some are altogether different, so while it's the same, it's different."
But Oklahoma is running the ball more with Trevor Knight at quarterback, just as WVU is running it more, the difference being that Knight may be Oklahoma's best runner while Millard is saved that wear tear.
"They're asking Knight to do some different things than we're asking Paul to do. He is more involved in the running game than Paul is. I don't think anyone is going to get a kick out of watching Paul Millard run the triple-option or speed-option or zone-read," Holgorsen said.
"There's obvious differences (between the quarterbacks), but easing them into it and not putting too much on the quarterback is obviously important."

Gonzaga avoids upset at WVU
For most of Tuesday night's battle at the Coliseum, West Virginia did a number on Gonzaga star Kevin Pangos, and because of that and some dazzling first-half shooting by Eron Harris and second-half heroics of Terry Henderson, the Mountaineers seemed on their way to an upset of the nation's No. 20 team.

CMS Adopts Final Rules for Inpatient Admissions and Inpatient Part B Billing
In its final IPPS rule for FY 2014 CMS adopts its earlier proposals regarding its two-midnight policy related to inpatient admissions and hospital billing under Part B following a denial of an inpatient stay. CMS discusses its position on pages 50906-50954 of the final rule [PDF].

By: Thomas W. Coons
In the fiscal year 2014 Inpatient Prospective Payment System (IPPS) rule published in the Federal Register on August 19, 2013, the CMS took two steps of note regarding the Medicare disproportionate share hospital (DSH) calculation. First, CMS addressed the decision by the United States District Court for the District of Columbia in Allina Health Services v. Sebelius ("Allina") which we discussed in our December 13, 2012 Payment Matters newsletter. Second, CMS explained the new DSH payment calculations and described the data on which the payment is to be calculated.

By: Alan J. Arville *
The 340B program permits eligible hospitals and other "safety-net" providers (Covered Entities) to purchase covered outpatient drugs from pharmaceutical manufacturers at significant discounts. The Affordable Care Act and the Medicare and Medicaid Extenders Act of 2010 expanded the categories of Covered Entities to include critical access hospitals, free-standing cancer hospitals, sole community hospitals and rural referral centers. For these categories of Covered Entities only, drugs designated by the Food and Drug Administration as drugs "for a rare disease or condition" (Orphan Drugs) are excluded from covered outpatient drugs subject to mandatory 340B pricing requirements (the Orphan Drug Exclusion). Other Covered Entities, such as disproportionate share hospitals, are not subject to the Orphan Drug Exclusion.
On July 23, 2013, the Health Services and Safety Administration (HRSA) issued a final rule on Exclusion of Orphan Drugs for Certain Covered Entities Under 340B Program [PDF]. The Final Rule is effective on October 1st, 2013, and clarifies that Covered Entities subject to the Orphan Drug Exclusion may purchase Orphan Drugs at 340B prices when they are "transferred, prescribed, sold, or otherwise used for any medically-accepted indication other than treating the rare disease or condition" for which the drug was designated orphan status.
Click to continue...CMS to Begin Implementing 25 Percent Threshold for LTCHs
By: Mark A. Stanley *
CMS, in its federal fiscal year (FFY) 2014 final rule, has allowed its five-year moratorium on the 25 percent threshold payment adjustment policy to expire. Following the lifting of this moratorium, LTCHs that admit more than 25 percent of their patients from a single acute care hospital will face payment adjustments. CMS explained that it was "allowing the moratoria to expire because we continue to be concerned that LTCHs that admitted more than the applicable percentage of patients from a particular referring hospital were, in effect, behaving like step-down units of the referring hospital, which results in two separate Medicare payments—one to the referring hospital and one to the LTCH -- for what we believe should be structured as one episode of care." The 25 percent threshold rule will apply for cost reporting periods beginning on or after October 1, 2013. Refer to Section VIII.D of CMS' final rules [PDF] for LTCH's Prospective Payment System updates for Fiscal Year 2014.

Insurance companies paid out more than $6 million in Verona and Cedar Grove
Insurance companies have paid out more than $6 million dollars locally since Superstorm Sandy, according to a published report.
Among the $6.7 million doled out as of Sept. 15 were 366 claims in Cedar Grove and 429 claims in the zip code that covers Verona, which also has a small segment of Montclair, according to NJ Spotlight.
The vast majority of payments were made to residents, though there were substantial payments for automobile and commercial claims.
In Cedar Grove, insurance companies paid $3 million, which was payment on 75.4 percent of all claims. The average loss reported was $6,405.
In the zip code which contains Verona, companies paid out $3.7 million, which was payment of about 76.3 percent of all claims. There, the average loss reported was $6,448.
The information in the report was obtained from the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance and excludes National Flood Insurance payouts.
Across the state, insurance companies paid more than $4 billion in claims, according to the website, though more than 80 percent reported dissatisfaction with the settlement.

BENNINGTON Police in Bennington are looking for a suspect following an armed robbery at a CVS pharmacy.
Bennington Police Chief Paul Doucette said officers responded to a 911 call around 9 p.m. Tuesday. The caller said someone had entered the store, jumped over the pharmacy counter and demanded Percocet while showing a handgun. The male suspect left with some medication.
Police arrived within minutes and locked down the store. A police dog helped track the suspect for a while, but the trail was lost at a nearby gas station. Police told the Bennington Banner that they believe a getaway car was waiting at the gas station.
Surveillance video shows a man wearing a hooded sweatshirt with a black face mask and gloves. He was holding a black and silver handgun.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER - Vermont will get nearly $39,000 from a $2.

Guard Accused Of Drug Smuggling
A Bucks County Prison guard is accused of smuggling Suboxone pills into the prison for inmates who bought them through outside contacts. 27-year-old Mark Hensel of Northeast Philadelphia is charged with possession with intent to deliver and other offenses. Prison security video shows him entering an employee restroom after receiving a phone call asking him to meet with a county detective, who had received a tip from an informant about the drug smuggling. Court documents say a search of the restroom turned up a plastic candy box that contained 19 pills mixed in with mints.

Rap icon JAY-Z stunned fans on Sunday (16Jun13) by announcing plans to release his 12th studio album next month (Jul13).
The 99 Problems hitmaker revealed that Magna Carta Holy Grail will be available to buy from 4 July (13) in a video sponsored by Samsung Galaxy which aired during the NBA finals in the U.S.
In the footage, the hip-hop star is filmed in the studio working on his latest material, with contributors Pharrell Williams, Timbaland and Rick Rubin.
Speaking of his new project, he says, "It's this duality of how do you navigate your way through this whole thing... through success, through failures, through all of this, and remain yourself."
The album is his first studio offering since 2009's The Blueprint 3, while he released collaborative record Watch the Throne with Kanye West in 2011.
