In parts 1 and 2 of our series, "An Exposure Driven Approach we examined how the liability claim exposure model is the foundation for both claims management, organizational efficiency and structure. In this article we look at how the claim exposure model can also be used as the driving element of the liability decision support system, and how that system can utilize the exposure model to provide an organization's claim representatives with the right tools at the right time to maximize claims handling effectiveness.
To understand the concept of the liability decision support system as a platform rather than a product, it is helpful to view the liability decision support system not so much as a simple claims handling mechanism but rather as a system that is designed to collect and organize claim information on a continuing basis. This type of information can then be used to develop ongoing claim exposure models. On the basis of those exposure models the proper analytical tools (resource profile) can be provided to the claim representative for the most expeditious and advantageous settlement of the claim.
Elements of Exposure
To accurately model exposure prediction levels on a continuing basis throughout the lifecycle of a claim, the liability decision support system needs to be able to assess all of the individual factors which contribute to the overall exposure level of the claim. These factors can change over time, and changes to any of them can affect the predicted exposure level. The liability decision support system must continuously assess and respond to any changes with updated claim exposure predictions and toolbox resource requirements. Exposure factors fall within four general areas – general claim, injury specific, medical information and negotiation factors (not all claims will have factors / information within all areas).
General Claim Information
There are a number of factors and variables that are considered in the prediction of exposure and can dictate the resource profile for the claim, for example:
Age of the claim – Older higher exposure claims may require more resources, for example, they may require the claims representative to do additional investigation as well as include expert analysis. Additionally, they are more likely to be attorney represented / litigated.
Location of the claim – Exposure potential is affected by the locality of the claim, for example the likelihood of large jury awards. Medical costs are also affected by the location of a claim.
Mitigating and/or contributing factors – These are important to the claims representative' evaluation of the claim for both the insured and the claimant.
Claimant specifics – For example occupation, age, earning level / potential, health status, credibility and reliability, history, etc. can affect the exposure and ultimate outcome of the claim.
Nature of claim / components – Nature of loss, injury, injury factors, medical specials, pain and suffering, self-represented, attorney represented, etc. from a historic perspective are key elements of exposure prediction.
Injury Specific Information
As we look at the dimensionality of a claim and the going exposure prediction, injury information developments become a primary predictor of overall exposure for example:
Initial injury assessment – Ambulance, hospital, diagnostic and treatment records at time of injury.
Injury and medical record evaluation – Subsequent treatment and diagnostic records and component evaluations exposure key predictors for claim exposure development.
Mechanism of injury – Assessment to insure treatment is consistent with diagnosis and no preexisting conditions, degeneration etc., are present or receiving treatment.
Treatment utilization – Progress assessment versus authorized medical specials to insure treatment numbers and payments within normal range.
When looking at a claim from a multidimensional perspective, exposure deviations, severe factors, injuries diagnosis or sudden changes in medical specials during the life of claim can be used and change the profile of a claim in the liability decision support system / platform. Claims with severe injuries at initial filing, or claims where medical specials suddenly spike or otherwise exceed the normal predicted exposure level will trigger the liability decision support system to deploy a detailed mechanism of injury investigative tools.
Medical History and Treatment Information
Injury causation and the qualification of treatment are key elements of liability claim handling and a liability decision support system / platform. Correlation of injuries, diagnosis, and the treatment (ICD9/10 and CPT codes and their correlation to the physical injury mechanisms) are important elements of the medical handling process. Additionally, these elements establish a baseline for the analytical processes that are the basis for establishing injury causation and financial predictors.
Other areas that have direct adjudication elements such as usual and customary rate analysis for over-billing via geographical area, specialty, etc. can help give a relative measurement for claim representatives. Physician fee schedule (Centers for Medicare – Medicaid Services) analysis, comparison for service charges and other ancillary services for medical cost containment all contribute to the establishment of a baseline for normalized medical units that provide a consistent exposure base. The medical dimension of the exposure model is a key predictor to the overall financial elements of a claim. The liability decision support system / platform must allow claim representatives to not only adjudicate medical, but must also utilize the results in the overall exposure model that drives the settlement process and resource profile for the claim.
Negotiation Factors
Ongoing exposure prediction, as well as prediction of the key negotiation factors allows the claim to be presented to the claim representative in proper context. Additionally, the prediction driven process allows the determination of the resource profile for the claim (Turner and Zizzamia, July 2008). Below are examples of prediction of the key negotiation factors and modifiers of the negotiation platform:
- Contributory negligence and comparative fault analysis and documentable application to settlement offer ranges.
- Use of insurers' historical data and industry standards for advanced profiling and case correlation.
- Quantification of the effect of attorney representation on probable settlement outcomes.
- Individual analysis of attorney records and venue specifics.
- Pre-existing conditions effects on negotiations and settlement outcomes.
- Strength of case prediction to provide claim representative settlement guidelines.
Exposure Model: Analytical Approach and Tools
Exposure modeling should be seen as a dynamic and continuous process throughout the lifecycle of a claim. At any given time, the exposure model generated by the liability decision support system provides a snapshot of the predicted exposure given all of the available information at that moment. However, truly sophisticated exposure modeling is much more like a movie than a snapshot or series of snapshots. It is both continuous and reactive to changes in predicted exposure as they occur.
Changes in any of the elements of exposure during the claim life-cycle will cause corresponding changes in the exposure prediction model. A sophisticated liability decision support system will react to those changes by automatically providing the analytical tools to the claim representative that are best suited to investigating and resolving the claim given the level of exposure prediction. The tools available to the claim representative will vary on a continuing basis as the predicted exposure level of the claim varies (Ayuso and Santolino, 2008/07).
Tools/Platform Elements
The tools available to the claim representative can be thought of as resource profile / platform elements. The availability of the platform elements varies with the exposure prediction level of the claim. High exposure level claims that require in-depth investigation by the claim representative will see a greater number of platform elements presented to the claim representative than will relatively simple low-exposure claims.
Data and information generated by the claim representative through the use of each platform element is used by the liability decision support system to continuously refine the exposure prediction level of the claim. As exposure prediction levels change, the liability decision support system continuously responds to those changes by providing the claim representative the platform elements best suited to analyzing the changes and minimizing exposure levels.
Platform Elements/Exposure Analysis Tools – examples
Understanding each of these tools and how they incorporate new data into the exposure model is critical for heuristic process exposure evaluation. Each of the products incorporated into an exposure driven platform allows for the utilization of appropriate tools given the overall exposure of the individual claim.
Medical Bill Review
Medical cost contentment is a critical function of a liability platform. The elements of the adjudication process are also a large adjustment expense. A platform that can differentiate exposure can select the elements of adjudication. These elements can be incorporated and triggered by; different medical bill processes (including medical utilization prediction), usual and customary rate data, expert analysis requests, provider sequencing flags etc.
Medical Profile Review
Nurses, specialists, experts etc., understanding the aspects of the medical review that includes medical history and reports specific services can be incorporated into the claim evaluation process given the triggers of these factors within the development of the case.
Expert Witnesses and Reports
Integration into legal services for attorney representation and the evaluation of the strength of case based on the progression of the evaluation process case analysis using quantification of expert reports and other specialists can add additional dimensionality to the exposure model.
Medical Records Review
For a certain case the specific medical record subject to review can provide date of service sequencing that can be added into the exposure model and change the exposure base for the predicted engines for general damages.
Police report retrieval and review
Services such as police report retrieval and review can also be incorporated based on factual information in the development of the case. In many organizations such services are used as a matter of fact. When straight through processing based of key predictive nodes each service has a defined role in the claim process.
Accident Reconstruction
An investigation may also include sophisticated techniques such as accident reconstruction. These types of techniques can be warranted given questionable factors surrounding the accident and the injuries that are being claimed. Most importantly if the exposure prediction mechanisms are accurate these techniques can be used effectively establish injury causation.
Causation Analysis
There are a number of techniques that can establish mechanisms of injury. These techniques can be incorporated to show causation within the process of evaluating the injuries and the circumstances surrounding the individual case.
Negotiation training/coaching
The ability for a liability support platform to communicate factual and predicted aspects of a claim to the representative so that the full context of the case is apparent during the negotiation phase of a claim is critical. Unobvious concepts related to strength of case and fraud indicators can be extremely important. Additionally, given the circumstances of the case support modules that discuss the injuries that are being claims and the causation factors can help the claim representative.
Tools – Note
Each of the exposure factors and tools can be taken in any specific order; however, the order and number can be designed by the organization to address key strategic goals and individually incorporated into the exposure platform. The point about tools is that they should be incorporated based on exposure of the claim and that all claims should not be forced through tools – tools are based on exposure there by utilizing services, maximizing efficiency and minimizing loss adjustment expense.
There are three major drivers to the evaluation of a liability decision support system / platform, (1) assisting the claim representative to understand the key elements of the claim information as it develops, (2) providing predictive elements of key financial nodes within the liability handling process and (3) the utilization of claim organizations tools / resources that will aid in providing the best outcomes of the claim process, thereby, minimizing the overall loss cost expense for the organization.
In this segment we continued to provide food for thought and encourage the thought process that can inspire the reader to examine their existing claim processes with a renewed perspective.

TUCSON - It was the end of an era today at an iconic Tucson eatery that served as a staple for generations of University of Arizona students.
The crew at Sausage Deli dedicated the final sandwiches made at the shop's original location to founder Steve Kleinsmith who opened the place on First Avenue near Grant Road back in the 70s. Kleinsmith sold the place a decade ago to manager Chris Fanelli's family.
"Today was more of an emotional day," said Fanelli. "We had a lot of customers that were regulars and also some that I have not seen in 10 years but have probably been here 20, 30 years ago."
Employees will spend the weekend moving much of the stock and a few mementos from the deli's trademark cramped quarters to a much more spacious building just a few dozen yards east on Grant Road. Demolition crews will raze the old building to make way for a Walgreen's store.
The new-look Sausage Deli is scheduled to open on Monday.

Walnut Creek Yacht Club
Online Reservations
My wife and I always chose to return for our Anniversary dinner out and are never disappointed. It's even a plus when we get Todd as our server. He has to be the most polished, personable and professional server in the business. I would highly recommend trying to get in his section. I have been a fan of the Yacht Club since it first opened. The oysters are always some of the tastiest around and the fish selections are always amazing too. Keep up the great job.....we can't wait to return - hopefully before our next anniversary!
WCYC is a fun place to go, they have great service and really good cocktails. The selection of fish is impressive. The portions are a bit small, especially with something like a Swordfish, I would hope for a thicker chunk of fish to bit into.
Best seafood in the east bay. YC is one of our "go to" restaurants in the Walnut Creek area. Food is consistently excellent, and service is very good.
Have only been to WC Yacht Club twice but very much enjoyed both experiences. The staff is very nice, even after a reservation mix-up on my side. The scallops are by far my favorite. Prices aren't completely unreasonable for the quality of service and food. Highly recommended.
I am glad that my old friend Sir Lance-lot is now part of the team and Todd always does a great job of serving
If you like fish you will love this place. Call early they fill up fast.
The WCYC has the freshest seafood in the east bay. Great preparations and sides. Service is always outstanding.
Met up with an old colleague for dinner. Sat at the bar around 6'ish as was a little early and service was excellent. Nice vibe, great drinks menu and very attentive. Seems like it attracts the locals, which I always feel is a good sign (can't live on the tourists alone), but equally friendly to new comers. Moved to our reserved table after a drink and no hint of being rushed. Big menu and for me ap's were perfect. We had a dozen oysters nicely shucked and fairly priced, followed by the 2 fish taco's (grilled) and the La Playa (very good) and crab cakes. Service was great and will try and make it back next time in the WC area. Would highly recommend.
Great fish...server was excellent...quite a bit of noise due to small space. We loved our experience and have not complaints.
Great service! Our server Ryan was extremely knowledgeable about the food, wine and even the cocktails. He guided us thru our selections with on point descriptions and expected favors we would experience. He was so professional and friendly and made our evening so enjoyable. Our busser was also attentive and professional. The food, of course, was delicious and well presented. We had a wonderful time!
surprisingly good food. Hadn't been here in a few years, and didn't know what to expect after that length of time. Ordered a sea bass dish w/ Thai seasonings that was fabulous. I like that the disk favored quality over quantity; just the right amount for me.
We ordered two 2-pound lobsters 24 hours in advance and were salivating for the entire 24 hours. The lobsters turned out as good as we anticipated; very sweet and juicy. Lots of good lobster meat in those big claws and that wonderful lobster tail. We also had a delicious calamari appetizer to start with and a couple of good cold beers (1 Niko; 1 Pilsner) to down all that lobster meat dipped in butter. All in all a very satisfying lobster dinner at a downtown Walnut Creek standard!
yacht club is the best seafood spot in walnut creek. they have the best and most original menu and are widely known for their selection of fresh oysters. The service is usually very good. the place is very busy and the main dining room is very noisy especilly on a weekend night, they have a seperate quieter dining room that can be requested
This place is all about the food; it's great! They have excellent fresh wild caught fish and a wonderful sense in finding creative ways to prepare it as a meal. Bread Pudding is to die for! Crusted Salmon with pumpkin seed sauce was unique and delicious! It's also very noisy when crowded. I usually go during the week but took a friend there on Friday and ended up shouting across the table above the din. They also have an excellent fish market and have found everything I wanted, first quality fresh, with a day or two lead time.
Again a very enjoyable time ...you cannot beat the fish and service at this great restaurant.
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Walnut Creek Yacht Club. We had reservations for a table, but when we walked in, we decided to sit at the bar as there were two comfy bar stools available, and there were two other couples enjoying their dinner at the bar who looked like they were having fun. We ordered crab cakes - delish!, and an ahi tuna salad served with a sweet potato pancake and a zingy dressing - really really good, and an outstanding penne pasta with tiger prawns dish - 3 dishes which we shared, because when you look at the menu, you want to order everything! It was a wonderful time in a vibrant but cozy atmosphere sitting at the bar. We will definitely be back!
If you can't go to the water for seafood this place is the next best thing. They have all the seafood choices and they prepare them well.
Always take my parents here when they are in town. Above average seafood and fish. A little pricey, but reliably good
Our friends Anniversary at our favorite place in WC. Excellent oysters and Drinks to start followed by terrific main courses. Thoughtful free dessert for the anniversary couple. Servers are friends we come so often. So much fun to eat here.
I have to be honest, I didn't go to the Walnut Creek Yacht Club because of it's name. Well, the old saying stands, "Don't Judge a Book by it's Cover". This restaurant was GREAT!!! From the minute I walked in, I realized this may become one of my favorites. Job well done Walnut Creek Yacht Club. I will be back.
We had a great experience at the WCYC. The food was great and the service was excellent. We would definitely come back again.
My Wife, her Sister & I are always looking for good seafood. We have lived in Walnut Creek over two years & this was our 1st visit. We thought that the seafood was very good with unusual sides available that were also very good. We will certainly be back.
Celebrated my husband's birthday on the 21st with 5 good friends. Real treat was arranging for lobsters for 4 of us. Well worth ordering in advance. They were perfectly cooked and succulent. WCYC never disappoints. We go back time and again.
We have been wanting to go to the Yacht Club for years and finally made it to celebrate double birthdays. Although the server was a little slow on the draw with the cocktails, he made up for it as the evening progressed. The food was wonderful, too bad they ran out of lobster for my mac 'n cheese, but a nice substitute with scallops and crab. The chowder was a little creamy, but still pretty good. All in all, it was a nice celebration and I will be returning for the lobster mac 'n cheese.
This was only the second time dining at The Yacht Club, but my experience confirmed my first opinion - great seafood and very attentive service! My wife and I chose the quieter dining option on the back patio - very wise choice. The inside bar/restaurant area was quite noisy! I ordered the Bay Shrimp salad appetizer and the steamed mussels in white wine/garlic sauce (I love mussels!). Both were very good, although the mussels could have been a bit larger and more meaty. Sauce was superb! My wife ordered the special - Petrale Sole on rice with grilled brussels sprouts. The dish was done to perfection. And the waiter (Todd) was gracious enough to fillet the whole fish perfectly at the table. All in all, a wonderful evening - we will be back!
We picked WCYC on the advice of a local during a visit to California. The waitstaff was engaging and helpful, and there was a wide array of quality fish to choose from with options for preparation and side orders. The dungeness crab cake appetizers were delicious and the halibut entree was outstanding! Extensive wine list was a bit pricey, perhaps. Overall, an excellent experience..... we'll return when in the area.
We hadn't been here for awhile so decided it would be fun for my husband's birthday. I had forgotten how good a simple grilled fish can be! I was feeling that there weren't a lot of different combinations of flavors available, I so enjoyed the simple grilled fish (with your choice of sauces) that I'm glad they didn't try to dress up the fish after all. I had let them know that we were celebrating a birthday, so they put my husband's name on the menu and brought him a dessert with a candle; very nice touch! And the waiter was very helpful in choosing wine, sauces for the fish, etc. Just the right amount of attention. My only complaint is that it's a bit noisy; and this was a Wednesday so not packed.
7 of us dined Saturday night and had a great time with lots of oysters and lots of martinis. You just cannot beat the fresheness of the oysters at WCYC. Service is always friendly and professional.
The waitress was extremely attentative and then seemed to get lost. Long periods of not having any service. The fish and desert were wonderful. The hot spices in the wedge were a surprise and had I known it would not have ordered it. The Pumpkin Cheesecake was amazing.
I took my girlfriend to lunch there yesterday, partially because I had a personal $50 gift card from Ellen the co-owner of the place , but even without that incentive , I wanted to check it out again, as I had been back in the late 90's. Celeste and I both had Halibut , she had the grilled Halibut and creamy spinach, I had the sauteed Halibut and their awesome garlic fries.... that piece of fish I had was so good, I thoroughly enjoyed it and Celeste even commented how tasty her's was! We will definitely go back and I highly recommend !!!
My husband and I celebrated our first anniversary at the WCYC. It was one of the best meals that we have ever had. Great food, great service, great atmosphere! We couldn't have asked for anything better!!
We thought the food was great! Portion size very good, great menu selections. Also, very friendly service, they took special care to find a table that my elderly mom could easily access with her walker; very conscientious about this- they even called me in the afternoon before our evening reservation to make sure they understood her needs.
Wonderful Monday night mussels! Lovely server, gracious hostess. Couldn't be better!
We went to WCYC for the first time Tuesday evening. Our waiter was terrific, helping us decide on entrees based on our cocktail and wine choices. I had the black grouper (best I'd ever had) and my husband had the halibut. You get a choice of sauces and a side. I'd recommend the Brussels sprouts. Perfect! We also had the Point Reyes oysters. They were so good. We're making this our go-to seafood in Walnut Creek.
Food is always good-- always fresh and well prepared. While we love the meal, the friendliness of the staff really makes the experience. Thanks!
My husband and I dined there for the umpteenth time. It's our go-to restaurant. Cocktails are always perfectly prepared. Seafood is the freshest around. Service is friendly & efficient.
The food was excellent but it was way too loud. I'd been there for lunch when it was more modulated. We had a 7:15 reservation and it was loud all the way until we left at 9:00 p.m.
There were 4 of us, with 4 different entrée choices and we all found them excellent, well prepared and fresh properly served. Service was excellent, the staff friendly with a fun vibe.. This is a seafood restaurant with an oyster bar. This was not our first time and certainly won't be our last.
Our first time at WCYC. I had the swordfish and my wife the scallops. Both were excellent, especially the scallops. The garlic fries were cosmic. Excellent wine. Our server was personable and very good. There were a couple minor mixups with our reservation which took the edge off. It was my wife's birthday so I put "Birthday" in the notes field on the OpenTable reservation. They called me and wanted to know my wife's name so they could print it on the menu. I thought that was a really great touch and was impressed. Less so when we were seated and saw on the menu: Happy Birthday Bob. They fixed it, but by then the specialness was gone. I was a bit disappointed in the ambiance. Pretty ordinary. But the food is great.
Always love the fish here. The sword fish and halibut grilled were very good. Interesting side sauces available. Each entree came with a side dish. We tried the brussel sprouts, pureed potatoes, beats and the rice - all delicious. Unfortunately, the service was not so good. Had to wait a long time to be served.
This was our first visit to the WCYC. Our food was outstanding. The best clam chowder I have ever had! While service was good, there was quite a long wait between courses. We do not like to be rushed, but it seemed a bit excessive. Our waiter was very nice and attentive, however, at times was a bit obtrusive, interrupting conversation. We will return when back in town.
Food is always great. Always fresh. The oysters are superb! Maureen who is the bartender is terrific as a mixologist as well as waitperson.
WCYC is our go-to place for a great meal. First on the list for all family events as well as when fresh crabs or lobsters are in season. A true can't miss. Additionally, has a great rewards program (not sure if they are accepting new member, so that ship may have set sail).
I brought my girlfriend here for our 5 year anniversary and it was great! I was able to put a personal note on the menu, food was amazing, and they even gave us a dessert to help us celebrate the day. I will definitely be coming back here soon!
WCYC has consistently provided excellent food and terrific service. I have been a customer for years and will continure for as long as they are open. I have had lunch and dinner both many times and have not been disappointed. The main dining room is moderately noisy but sometimes that can be fun and the patio is quieter for times when you want a more intimate setting. But best the food is always the best.
We go to The Yacht Club for special occasions and this was no exception. We asked for and got a booth as we were dining with our friends who were celebrating their anniversary. The tables are very close together and it can get quite loud out on the floor. We ordered a dozen oysters and they were so good we ordered more! Maria and Rob pre ordered the lobster and they were just huge. Two and a half and three lbs. and thoroughly enjoyed them. The other two of us ordered fish dishes. The nice thing about that is you can choose two kinds of sauce out of about 8 and they are wonderful plus, the order includes a side. I got the beet salad which is amazing. Great selection on the sides. They have an award winning bar tender to boot!
Six of us from Canada went to the Walnut Creek Yacht Club for my wife's birthday while travelling around San Francisco. The seafood was outstanding. The service was superb. I highly recommend and will return when we are back in the area. I was hesitant about booking a reservation on-line but all was 110%.
We had an absolutely marvelous dinner to celebrate my son's 21st birthday . The waitress was very knowledgeable and helpful, the food was prepared to perfection, and we enjoyed the festive atmosphere.
Food is always very good, and the service was excellent. Best fresh oysters in the east bay
No one surpasses the Walnut Creek Yacht Club for fresh seafood here on this side of the tunnel. Both my sister and I totally enjoyed the Louie. As always, we could not decide between the crab and the prawns so we sprang for a combination of both! The salad comes beautifully arranged on a wedge of iceberg lettuce, surrounded with perfectly roasted beets, boiled eggs and cucumbers. It is one of my top favorites at the Yacht Club, and I am never disappointed. Our waiter was attentive and professional. I had asked for a back booth, which is somewhat quieter in a restaurant that can often get quite loud because everyone is having so much fun!

The India International Jewellery Week 2012, sponsored by PCJ, came to a close in Mumbai with the dual grand finales - a 'Best of the best' show featuring ornaments from the entire IIJW 2012, and a show by PC Jewellers. Madhuri Dixit-Nene was the showstopper for the latter.
She walked the ramp in a polki rani haar collar, with Aaja Nachle playing in the background. She was later joined on the ramp by Balram Garg of PCJ. PCJ's contemporary collection was for the modern woman in light-weight gold, while the specially crafted bridal line had exquisite pieces of gold and diamond jewellery.

Specialized Therapy for Performing Artists
Fri, 03/22/2013 - 9:03am | Catherine Dara
By trade, dancers, musicians and other performing artists are often passionate and exceedingly dedicated to their craft. Therefore, much like athletes, professional and recreational artists have grueling practice schedules and incur repetitive and other injuries. But unlike athletes, performing artists have not had a dedicated rehabilitation team who understand and cater to their unique needs.
What makes PARC different from other rehabilitation facilities? For Dancers – The facility boasts a professional dance floor, complete with a ballet barre and full length mirrors. Spacious treatment rooms afford patients the room to practice their routines. For Musicians – The facility has a piano and a soundproof music room for performers to play their instruments. Why choose a treatment team that specializes in performing arts rehabilitation? Patients can be referred for physical therapy at Good Shepherd's Performing Arts Rehabilitation Center by their family doctor or specialist. If you don't have a doctor, you can schedule an appointment with a Good Shepherd physician who will medically evaluate your condition to see if you are a candidate for physical therapy. |

The Loyola Maroon VOL. XXIX, X-268 Loyola University, New Orleans, Friday, October 19, 1951 No. 6 Students Misinterpret Council's 'New Power' by Newell Schindler Talk around the campus concerning the Student Council's "new power" has resulted in confusion which stems from misunderstanding on the part of the student body, according to George Coumes, chairman of the council's constitutional committee. Actually, the three rules which the Student Council voted to follow are not a new policy, as they are the fundamental points of the Student Council Constitution drawn up in 1926 when the Council was established. But, during the years, the Council had been stripped of practically all the points stated in the constitution, until it reached the point that it was not functioning in anyway as it was organized to do. The three primary rules are: (1) complete coordination of student activities and organizations; (2) enforcement of campus discipline, and (3) representation of the University at off-campus functions. What these rules add up to is Student Government. Actually, a Loyola student has no right to student government, but is given this privilege by the school authorities. By student government, the students are permitted to govern themselves. That is, coordinate student activities, and organizations, discipline themselves, and represent the university at off-campus functions. The first and third of these rules, which are by far the most important, or should be, have not caused much confusion, but the second, that of self-discipline, has been quite a controversial subject for the past week. Actually, the Student Council members were elected by fellow students to carry out these duties, and are not merely showing off their power by enforcing rules, but doing their duty. The subject which seems to be causing all the dissension is that of "no smoking" in certain parts of the university. This is not a law which the Council lifted out of thin air, but a law set up by the university to comply with insurance regulations. As the student governing body, it is the duty of the council to enforce this and other university rules. At stated above, the university is complying with fire insurance regulations. According to these regulations, if the university wants to permit smoking in those sectors outlawed by the insurance company, they must pay much stiffer rates because of the greater danger of fire. The Student Council as a body hopes it will never have to take disciplinary action because someone has violated this and other university regulations, and with the cooperation of the student body they won't. By violatoin the students are forcing their own student government to take action in one of the duties in which they were elected. It was decided to give the student council back its duties, as stated by the constitution, when the Rev. Anthony C. O'Flynn, S.J., dean of men, and several student representatives returned from a recent NFCCS convention in St. Paul, Minn. At the convention, the Loyola representatives had discussions with representatives of other Catholic universities through the country, and found out the powers and duties of student government at these other institutions. It was found that the governments were very successful at these schools. They can also be successful at Loyola, but only with the cooperation of the student body. Bishop Sheen To Open Forum Season Friday Newly consecrated Bishop Fulton J. Sheen, popularly known as "Monsignor Sheen", will open the Loyola University Forum, Friday, October 26, at 8:30 p.m., in the large side of the Municipal Auditorium, the Rev. John Toomey, S.

I wonder which rocket scientist thought puttig tents across the bike path at Pinky Flat today was clever. Very tempted to grab a glass of wine as I wheeled through BankSA's marquee!
I rode past that tent while on the ride for pain beach cruise and had no problems at all. There was a lot going on along the river on Sunday with The Rowers, Dragon Boats, Food festival and the UniSa ride. The only issue I saw was a girl with headphones blasting, not being able to walk in a srtaight line as we came under the Montefiore Rd. Bridge
I was hoping that Craig, who saw the obstruction, would contact ACC. A few minutes ago I contacted ACC. My email below.
There is a discussion on Adelaide Cyclists forum about an event held on Sunday 30-Apr-2012 by an organisation that is not cyclist-aware, or even pedestrian friendly. A tent was erected across the shared path of the River Torrens Linear Park at Pinky Flat.
I understand that the marquee was signed as Bank SA, and a marquee for imbibing drinks. Right across the shared path, causing a bottleneck for all traffic along there. This included the cycling event Ride for Pain, organised by UniSA to raise money for charity. See http://www.adelaidecyclists.com/forum/topics/clever-people-who-put-...
I would hope that ACC by-laws for using public land would exclude erecting obstacles on a shared path. I would appreciate a response.
Heather, Coordinator, Adelaide BUG
Today I received a response from the Event Consultant, Vibrant City, ACC. So raising this issue, even with differing views, has been constructive.
Dear Heather,
Thanks for your recent email regarding your concerns about the Bank SA marquee being erected on the Torrens Lake pathway as part of the Tasting Australia event held in Elder Park on April 28 & 29. I can confirm that no Council by-laws were breached as Events South Australia had a Lease in place for the running of the event and as part of the Lease approval process they were required to submit a site plan and these structures were clearly shown on the site plan with access remaining open and approval was given. I would agree that while through access was provided, in the future we would want to see an improvement in the way it was executed to avoid any congestion and frustration by other users of that area on the day.
I did read all the comments on the blog link you provided and it's useful to understand people's differing opinions on the matter. I can assure you your comments will be included in the post-event report that we do for all major events and is always referred to in any consideration for future events. I have also forwarded your concerns to the Event Management Team at Events South Australia who managed the Tasting Australia event.
As the Event Consultant allocated to this event I really appreciate you taking the time to pass on your concerns and will be much more aware and careful when considering site plans that include infrastructure encroaching onto public pathways in the future.
Kind regards

Question by Oliver 2 103 · Jul 10 '12 at 11:45 PM · muhfuhn dairy
Just interested in your responses. I give a long facepalm and explain that calcium is abundant in green leafy vegetables, as well as some fruits/nuts, and I'd rather get my calcium without lactose, casein, and hormones in the mixture
Their latest response to that is "THERES NOT ENOUGH CALCIUM IN VEGETABLES U N33D DAAARY" "NOT ENUF." "YUR BONEZZZZ", so I just tell them we've only been consuming dairy for the past 10,000 years, and ask how we survived before that.
That doesn't work so well on the young earth creationists though.

You could cite this recent post from the New York Times
'Osteoporosis? You don't need milk, or large amounts of calcium, for bone integrity. In fact, the rate of fractures is highest in milk-drinking countries, and it turns out that the keys to bone strength are lifelong exercise and vitamin D, which you can get from sunshine.'
'Sugar — in the form of lactose — contributes about 55 percent of skim milk's calories, giving it ounce for ounce the same calorie load as soda.'
'This in a country where as many as 50 million people are lactose intolerant, including 90 percent of all Asian-Americans and 75 percent of all African-Americans, Mexican-Americans and Jews'
Oh no you read the New York Times? I guess i should have not wished you luck on your date and let natural selection do its dirty work. LOL. Just messing around. You're all good dude.
Answer by Jay 15 87 · Jul 10 '12 at 11:52 PM
I don't explain myself to anyone. Hell, if all I consumed was skittles and Jack Daniels I wouldn't be compelled to have to defend myself.....
If someone is truly interested I guess thats a different story.
Answer by hotlava 341 · Jul 11 '12 at 02:38 AM
There are plenty of healthy strong-boned animals out there who never drink milk in adulthood and never, ever from another species. Like, um.. all of them.
Answer by SCUBABry 705 · Jul 11 '12 at 01:00 AM
I recently got this question from my family members (extended ones) and I responded with a question. What makes dairy good for you? Their answer is always, vitamin D and other important nutrients. Then I ask them, well, where does the milk get those from? The answer is always, well the milk has been fortified with them. then my final question is always...OK, so if milk is so good for you then why do they need to add stuff to it? Leaves em stumped every time.
Answer by Aglaee the Paleo RD 4000 · Jul 11 '12 at 09:24 AM
I explain that dairy is not necessarily good for everyone (insulinogenic properties + hormones + lactose + casein).
I explain that many people have strong bones without dairy.
I explain that there are other sources of calcium besides dairy.
I explain that you don't need as much calcium if your diet is lower in toxins and antinutrients.
I explain that there is more to bone health than dairy (vitamin D, vitamin K2, magnesium, weight-bearing exercises.
The book Vitamin K2 and the calcium paradox is great!
Answer by KA24 5658 · Jul 10 '12 at 11:54 PM
Ask them to "define dairy."
Some might mention milk. Others might say butter. Undoubtedly someone mentions eggs. I'll usually just chuckle and walk away. Eggs...
Answer by Eugenia 11759 · Jul 11 '12 at 12:10 AM
I personally do need dairy, otherwise my teeth complain. But not any type of dairy. It must be only from goat/sheep/buffalo (more compatible casein to that of normal cows), and it must be fermented (goat kefir is godsend for health).
Answer by SUSTAINEDfitness 6772 · Jul 11 '12 at 01:21 AM
Getting rid of grains with phytic acid will help your calcium levels more than anything. Some are more tolerant to dairy than others. I use pastured organic hormone free heavy cream in my coffee and for desserts, but I have no problem with it. I also do aged cheeses.
Answer by UncleLongHair 368 · Jul 11 '12 at 11:07 AM
Who is telling you? A doctor, or some random schmoe on the street?
One view is that digesting milk as an adult is a relatively recent evolutionary adaptation (within the last few thousand years) and many people / cultures don't have it. Milk does not factor into many Asian diets for example. You can get all of the nutrients you need from other sources.
The whole thing about milk being the "perfect food" is just a product of big agra marketing.
Answer by DePaw 1976 · Jul 11 '12 at 12:51 PM
Also vitamin K2 is very important, it's found in grass-fed animal fats and dairy (like kerrygold butter), pastured egg yolks. Weston Price called it 'Activator X'.
K2 can five fold increase calcium absorption, and also helps the calcium get into the teeth and bones (which means you'll only need to eat 200mg calcium, not the RDA of >1000mg! for a start).
Supplementing vitamin D without K2 can lead to calcification of the arteries causing heart attacks.
The article really explains the science of K2 and why it's so vital: http://www.westonaprice.org/fat-soluble-activators/x-factor-is-vitamin-k2
Also this book is incredible: http://www.amazon.com/Vitamin-K2-Calcium-Paradox-Little-Known/dp/1118065727
My mother has bone issues and I gave her supplemental K2 as MK-7, thorne brand, and she is doing very well taking 1mg (1 drop) per day.

China and Newcastle ties will be bolstered with tomorrow's official opening of the Confucius Institute at the University of Newcastle.
Confucius Institutes are non-profit public institutions designed to promote Chinese language and culture and support local Chinese teaching.
Located on the Callaghan campus, the Confucius Institute will be just one of nine in Australia, and will reinforce educational and cultural exchange between China and the Newcastle and Hunter regions.
Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic and Global Relations), Professor Kevin McConkey, said China was the fastest growing economy in the world and it was important for Newcastle to seize every opportunity to strengthen this relationship.
"Globally, China is the largest exporter and the second largest importer and it is fast becoming the most influential economic powerhouse in the world. It is vital for Newcastle to take every chance to collaborate with this global leader," Professor McConkey said.
"This Institute will strengthen our strong ties with China and will build on the University's current relationships with leading Chinese institutions through research and student and staff exchange."
The Institute will offer language training courses and engagement programs with schools and the general community, and will provide a range of other services including Chinese language teaching, language tests and cultural exchange activities.
"The Confucius Institute will be an important place for people to learn Chinese language and understand Chinese culture," Professor McConkey said.
Appointed by the Chinese Ministry of Education, Newcastle is the only Confucius Institute in Australia outside a capital city.
Central China Normal University, one of the country's premier tertiary institutions, is the official partner university for the Confucius Institute at the University of Newcastle.
For more information visit: www.newcastle.edu.au/institute/confucius-institute/
PHOTO OPPORTUNITY: The opening of the Confucius Institute will be held on Wednesday 11 May between 3-5pm in the Industry Development Centre (IDC). Media are welcome to attend.

The biggest news coming from CTIA 2010 had to be Sprint's HTC EVO, the first 4G Android cell phone that will be available in the summer. While the fact that it's the first 4G Android smartphone to be announced, the EVO really has a lot more going for it. Yes, it will run Android 2.1 with HTC Sense and has a large, beautiful display similar to the HTC HD2. That's not all it can also be a HotSpot providing connectivity for up to 8 additional WiFi-enabled products. It has an 8-megapixel camera, can stream HD video and even record video in 720p HD, and has HDMI out so you can watch that video on an HDTV. Pretty slick, huh? Watch this video narrated by HTC's @finderic to see it in action.

Lindy's place has a nightclub in back that packs it out. Should be just fine. The question is who likes mediocre Mexican taco's in a town FULL of good places to eat.
How is Sir Veza's Taco Garage on Wetmore going to affect Lindy's at Red Line? The proximity for two like themed restaurants seems a little too close. Funny how they're both in remodeled Marie Callendar's buildings.
Coling: No. Train Wreck Saloon is in the north end of the Maloney's Building: http://www.tucsonweekly.com/TheRange/archi…
Please be advised that the Smart Choices for Healthy Dining Tasting event that was scheduled for Sunday, January 22nd and is mentioned above, has been cancelled!
Koi Sushi Bar opened earlier this week. I did not see what time they opened but I believe they are open until 10pm each night. The food was pretty good.
The Buddhist Temple dinner sounds delicious.
Dining in a peaceful, loving environment too.
The Cajun food at The Parish on Oracle would be excellent if they cut the hot pepper by about 70%. Diners can always add more pepper if they want, but diners can't remove pepper!
The majority of diners don't want to have enamel burned off their teeth and their tongues stripped of skin by hot pepper.
The only bad dish I tasted there, except for the excessive pepper in almost every dish, was the hush puppies.
Hush puppies are supposed to be lighter, not hard, burned little rocks of death.
The gumbo is very good, but way too much pepper.
The Parish is a down home cozy little place in a neighborhood that needs a casual hangout and I hope it is a great success. Prices are reasonable too.
The construction menu is still in effect, the kitchen is not fully equipped yet, but from here The Parish can only get better and better, if they cut the pepper.
Live crawfish season is coming up in a couple of months, and The Parish staff says they will be flying in live crawfish from Louisiana instead of the frozen Asian crawfish they serve now, and crawfish season is a big event that coincides with Mardi Gras. Big doings ahead. Don't miss this celebration.
More Sushi in Tucson......Yea! BTW the new brewery in DT will be Thunder Canyon.
I took my visiting Polish Mom to Polish Cottage last week. Good renditions of Polish favorites, decent portions at reasonable prices and yes, good beer selection. Two Polish thumbs up.
The people not aware of the scourge that is breast cancer are the numerous women - and some men - diagnosed when the cancer has already metastasized. Early detection saves lives, and awareness promotes early detection.
It would be great if 100 percent went to research, but if only 20 percent goes that way that's still much better than none. It only takes one family member or friend to fall ill with cancer to really send this message home. Pinkwash me any day if it means somebody can have a loved one around a little longer.
You have a point, Downtowner, but Komen does spend a significant amount of cash on education and health screenings as well. Around 20% of their total budget is allocated to administration and fundraising.
"...to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, a foundation dedicated to breast-cancer awareness and research.."
You all have just fallen victim to Komen pinkwashing - Komen allocates just 19 percent of its very hefty take to research.
And who, pray tell, is NOT aware of the scourge that is breast caner?
That TD's Showclub ad right smack in the middle of the story about Wilko's cocktail bar is a little weird, folks.
Thanks Downtowner. I try to feature the better food trucks in the print edition as well, being that the Food Truck Diaries are strictly online.
Your previous story on mexico city kitchen.
I'm thrilled to hear that a food & drink place is getting ready to open up in the former Reilly Funeral home on Pennington. I'm not thrilled about the food idea though. Pizza, pasta & sandwiches? Not very inventive or needed. Bummer.
Thanks. I noticed that this morning. Any idea how long it has been closed?
It looks like the La Salsa on the SW corner of Campbell and Fort Lowell is shuttered.

Research Interests:
I am currently the director of the Colorado Program for Nutrition and Developmental Health.
Goals of the Program
• To understand basic mechanisms underlying the role of nutrition and the environment on maternal-infant health in animal models that can be translated to humans.
• To develop safe nutritional/interventional strategies to achieve a healthier pregnancy and improve newborn health during the first 1000 days of life.
• To facilitate collaborative research within Colorado and beyond.
• To provide education for trainees, medical professionals, and the lay public.
Exploring the Fuel-Mediated Programming of Neonatal Growth in Non-Human Primates.
Development of a Non-Human Primate Model of High-Fat/Calorie Diet-Effects on the Fetus: The prevalence of obesity has been increasing dramatically in the United States over the past decades and obesity is now present at increasingly younger ages, indicating that risk factors for this condition start operating very early in life. Fetal life is considered one of the critical (or sensitive) periods when an exposure may have lifelong effects on the structure and/or function of organs, tissues, and body systems through biological programming. The notion that abnormal maternal metabolism in obesity may trigger changes in the fetus that underlie susceptibility to juvenile obesity is increasingly gaining acceptance. However, the mechanisms involved in generating such responses are far from understood. We have a long-term collaborative project with the Oregon National Primate Research Center using adult Japanese macaques subjected to a high fat diet during repeated pregnancies. Despite no change in maternal weight gain or fetal birth weight we found elevated fetal hepatic triglycerides, inflammation, and increased oxidative stress in the liver during the early 3rd trimester (JCI, 2009; Plos One 2011). The offspring also demonstrate significant changes in the hypothalamus, skeletal muscle, and pancreas. Significance: These studies demonstrate (1) fetuses from overweight mothers chronically consuming a high fat diet show early signs of liver steatosis and possibly nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, (2) the fetus is highly vulnerable to excess lipids independent of changes in maternal glucose, and (3) accelerated obesity in the fetus may result in "epigenetic signatures" in key genes as a result of excessive nutrient transfer to the fetal/ placental unit. I and my colleagues are currently addressing the cellular mechanisms for these findings and closely following the behavior and metabolic profiles of the juvenile animals as they develop post-natally. These results have profound public health implications.
Molecular Mechanisms for Insulin Resistance in Human Pregnancy: Impact on the Fetus:
Our clinical studies are focused on the cellular/molecular mechanisms of insulin resistance in tissues(adipose and skeletal muscle) obtained from obese women with obesity and Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM). Maternal obesity is an enormous public health concern, as children from these pregnancies have demonstrated a dramatic rise in obesity and T2DM in young adulthood, and mothers with GDM have an extremely high risk of progressing to T2DM after pregnancy. Despite the dramatic increase in the incidence of GDM, and the long-term effects on the fetus, there are very few mechanistic data in the field of insulin resistance of GDM. Working with clinical investigators in the Department of Ob-Gyn and Women's Health at the University of Colorado Denver, we are investigating how changes in dietary lipid and glucose metabolism, inflammation, and insulin resistance result in excess nutrient transfer to the fetus. In skeletal muscle from pregnant obese women we have found a pattern of reduced mitochondrial function that may underlie the failure to oxidize nutrients and insulin resistance that may underlie excess weight gain. In maternal adipose tissue, we find that maternal obesity is associated with infiltration of macrophages and inflammatory processes that contribute to excessive lipolysis and may result in excessive insulin resistance and excess nutrient transfer to the fetus. We are investigating Lipoprotein Lipase activity (a key gate keeper of lipid uptake by placenta) and infant adiposity at birth, and the role of maternal breast-feeding nutrient composition as potential points for intervention. Nutritional strategies that can lower maternal lipids, inflammation, or oxidative stress may hold promise for potentially preventing the obesity epidemic in children as pregnancy is considered a key time for adipogenesis, fat storage, and epigenetic programming in early signatures for weight gain.

Goal Accomplished!!!! - Stacia Naquin
Updated: 2:48 PM - I finally did my pull up!!! It was a New Year's Resolution that took me ALL YEAR! But I did it.
A judge has blocked a voter identification requirement from going into effect on Election Day, a decision counted as a victory for Democratic opponents of the law.
The law requires each voter to show a valid photo ID but opponents say it could prevent the elderly and minorities from voting.
The decision came down from Commonwealth Court Judge Robert Simpson and could be appealed to the state Supreme Court. It could be the last word on the law before the November 6 election.
Simpson's ruling orders the state to not enforce the photo ID requirement in this year's presidential election but does not stop the law from going into full effect next year.
Election workers will still be allowed to ask voters for a valid photo ID, but anyone without one can still vote on a regular voting machine and would not have to cast a provisional ballot or prove their identity to election officials.
Proponents of the law claim it will help to cut down on voter fraud and follows a wave of similar new voter identification requirements over the past couple of years, largely in Republican-controlled Legislatures.
Opposition has been fierce from organizations like the NAACP, AARP and the League of Women Voters. Democrats have accused Republicans of using Jim Crow tacticts to steal the White House from Obama by making it harder for many of his core supporters (young adults, poor, minorities and disabled) to vote.
The state Supreme Court had ordered Simpson to stop the law if he thought anyone eligible would be unable to cast a ballot or if he found the state had not complied with the law's promise of providing easy access to a photo ID that voters were required to carry on Election Day.
Last week, Governor Tom Corbett's administration overhauled the process for getting a voting-only ID card - an admission that the state had not met the Supreme Court's test for whether the law should stand.

text: I just purchased a 5 pound jug of this stuff. Just opened it. I ordered the Strawberry one because for some reason the other flavors were more expensive. It was an awesome price $52.94 including shipping for five pounds of isolate is unheard of. Ok so I mixed it up. 12 oz of whole milk with 2 scoops of protein. I use a blender. It mixes up really quick and gets thick, which I like. I hate the proteins that mix up really thin like water. The strawberry isn't too sweet or overpowering like a lot of strawberry proteins are. Not bad. I really like that it has Zero carbs per serving if you don't count fiber carbs, which I don't. Today I'm having a mid-week carb up so I mixed it in milk though. Usually I'll be using almond milk and the kind I purchase has zero carbs also. 121 calories per scoop, Zero carbs(not counting the fiber carb) and 27.5 grams of protein per scoop. Good stuff. Wish the chocolate was the same price though.

TAMARAC, Fla. (AP) -- Authorities say two women are dead, one of whom was shot by a Broward County deputy.
The sheriff's office reports that the deputy was driving through a Tamarac neighborhood Wednesday morning when a resident flagged him down and told him about a woman waving a gun around. The deputy ordered the woman to drop the weapon several times before firing his gun at least once and hitting her.
Afterwards, authorities found another dead woman in front of a nearby home. Details about her death weren't immediately released.
Officials didn't identify the deputy or either dead woman.
