A proceeding is a matter held in open court with at least one of the parties present in a case which is actually heard (i.e., oral argument or testimony is given), other than an ex parte action. Ex parte hearings held in open court where oral argument or testimony is given should be recorded as proceedings (see Ex Parte Actions, page 5-8).
A trial is a contested proceeding conducted by a judge to resolve the issues of a case. A trial is distinguished from other proceedings based on the following criteria.
(1) Both parties are present or represented.
(2) Issues are contested as demonstrated by the jury being sworn or opening argument being made, waived, or reserved.
A proceeding should be recorded with the proceeding-held docket code entry on the day the proceeding commences. For a multi-day proceeding (i.e., a hearing or trial conducted on two or more days), record the proceeding-held docket code only on the first day.
A case reopened is treated like any other case when scheduling a proceeding or docketing a proceeding that has occurred. The definition for a reopened case is discussed on page 5-6.
Recording Proceeding Time - The use of sub-docket codes to record the length of proceeding times is a local option, and does not affect caseload statistics. For information on recording proceeding time, see the proceedings-held section of the Guide to Docketing in Washington State.
Multiple Proceeding Types - For a given case, a single session of the court can result in the occurrence of one or more proceedings. When multiple proceedings are held during a given court appearance, the Case Management Advisory Committee (CMAC) decided that the single proceeding category which best reflects the nature of the appearance should be recorded. The Superior Court Statistics/Codes Committee adopted rules for selecting the most appropriate category to be reported. These rules will be fully implemented when the Courts Automated Proceedings (CAPS) computer application is available. In the meantime, docket in accordance with the following rules.
(1) Docket each type of proceeding held during a single session of the court only once. For example, if multiple motions are made during a proceeding, docket only one motion hearing ("MTHRG").
(2) Do not docket a motion hearing ("MTHRG") or summary judgment hearing ("SMJHRG") through non-jury trial duration.
Cases Consolidated for a Proceeding - Multiple adoption/parentage cases may be consolidated for a single court session. For proceedings involving consolidated cases, record the appropriate proceeding-held docket code(s) for each case in order to maintain the legal docket record.
PROCEEDING CATEGORIES - Definitions for these proceeding categories are given below. For each category all applicable SCOMIS proceeding-held docket codes are given in parentheses. Only docket codes shown here will be included in adoption/parentage proceeding statistical counts on the caseload report.
A hearing whereby parties or their attorneys prepare and present their issues in an effort to reach pre-trial settlement.
Status Conference (STAHRG) - A status conference is a hearing before the court to determine the condition or state of a case, generally occurring at the midpoint in the life of a case.
Motion Hearing (MTHRG) - A motion hearing is a proceeding before the court for an order to set forth specific relief as requested.
Pre-Trial Management Hearing (PTMHRG) - A hearing whereby the court considers compliance with discovery and motion deadlines, attempts to frame issues of fact and law for trial, sets a briefing schedule, and makes further rulings as necessary, including the determination of readiness for trial.
Status conferences, motion hearings, and pre-trial management hearings held prior to or on the same day as case resolution are counted as "other pre-resolution" hearings.
A summary judgment hearing is a proceeding before the court in which a judgment is granted prior to trial on the basis that the case involves no dispute as to factual matters, and that the party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
A hearing in which all remaining uncontested issues are adjudicated, and the case is resolved.
A trial in which the issues of fact and law are to be determined by the judicial officer of a court or competent jurisdiction based on the agreed statement of facts contained in one or more affidavits.
4.F. NON-JURY TRIALJury Trial (NJTRIAL)
A trial in which the issues of fact and law are to be determined by the judicial officer of a court of competent jurisdiction. Record a non-jury trial when the first witness is sworn, the first piece of evidence is presented, or when opening argument is made, waived, or reserved, whichever comes first. Do not docket any motion hearings through non-jury trial duration.
To document the number of days and length of time per day in a multi-day trial, see Recording Proceeding Time, page 5-9.
A post-resolution hearing seeking a modification to an existing order or decree.
Review Hearing (RVWHRG) - A review hearing is a post-resolution proceeding to monitor compliance with a decree or judgment.
Motion Hearing (MTHRG) - A motion hearing is a proceeding before the court for an order to set forth specific relief as requested (e.g., motion for reconsideration, motion notwithstanding the verdict).
Review hearings and motion hearings held after the case resolution date are counted as "other post-resolution" hearings.

Sarah Glassmeyer, JD, MLS, of CALI has posted Law Schools Team Up with CALI to Harness Skills of Law Students, Develop Online Tools for Low-Income Litigants, at the CALI Blog.
The post contains a press release, which begins:
The Center for Computer-Assisted Legal Instruction (CALI®) will announce at the annual meeting of the American Association of Law Schools in New Orleans on January 6, 2013 that they have reached agreements with faculty members from six law schools to develop course kits as part of the Access to Justice Clinical Course Project (A2J Clinic Project). Participating law schools include Columbia Law School, Concordia University School of Law, CUNY School of Law, Georgetown University Law Center, UNC School of Law, and University of Miami School of Law.
Each participating faculty member will develop and document a course model that uses A2J Author® to teach law students how technology tools can be used to lower barriers to justice for low-income, self-represented litigants. CALI will use those course models to assist other law schools in establishing A2J Clinical Courses as a permanent part of their law school curriculum.
A2J Author is a software tool developed by CALI and the Center for Access to Justice & Technology at IIT Chicago-Kent College of Law to deliver greater access to justice for self-represented litigants by enabling lawyers and law students to rapidly build user-friendly web-based document assembly tools called A2J Guided Interviews®. These A2J Guided Interviews allow users to complete court documents by presenting a series of easy-to-understand questions while graphics virtually lead users along the path to the courthouse, where these documents can be filed.

Bistro Roca and Antlers Bar
Online Reservations
This was our first time and we really enjoyed it. We were only in Blowing Rock for one night, so wanted to have a nice dinner. I had the special entree that night, which was Opah for $27. Really delicious. My only complaint was that the grits were a little cold and the sauce was a little too sweet. But I still loved the dish. My husband had the pork ribeye which was also excellent. We were also very pleased with the beer, wine and cocktail selection. Prices were about the typical you'd expect for upscale - slightly higher than I would have liked (my cocktail was $12). Service wasn't exceptional, but was good. We would definitely recommend it, and return.
Always great for lunch or dinner-upscale cosmopolitan feel in a mountain setting!
Bistro roca almost always serves delicious food, creatively presented in a vibrant atmosphere. The pork was scrumptious. Love the salad sampler that comes with every entry. Noise level can be high, at times, as few acoustics to offset. Probably the most popular place to eat in Blowing Rock - for good reason.
The food is fabulous. Great ambiance. convient location in Blowing Rock
This was our first visit to this restaurant. The food was wonderful, selection was nice and different. Nice upscale dinning, reasonably priced. We will go back.
Started coming he about five years ago. Very impresses at the time. Had not been back in three years or so and had heard the food had declined. That is not the case, still as good as I remembered.
Bistro Roca is one of our favorite neighborhood restaurants. We have never been disappointed in the food. I took four very elderly ladies for lunch last week. Aside from the noise level making them say "What did she say?" every few minutes, they had a blast. Everyone enjoyed their lunch and cleaned their plates. The waiter, Andy was amazing. He was so patient and helpful with the ladies. All in all, a very pleasurable experience.
FREQUENT THIS LOCATION EVERY TIME WE'RE IN THE AREA. A MUST FOR EXCELLENT DINING EXPERIENCE! tw
My mother and I had a lovely dinner outside on the deck by a crackling modern fireplace. The portions were on the large side. The prime-rib and flounder were delicious and prepared beautifully. The accompanying salad was huge, fresh and delicious. We return to Bistro Rocca each Fall when we come to enjoy the colors.
We love to dine at this place, however, this go around the service is dreadful. Waitress could not get my husbands food order or drink order correct. Usually we have a great time so will just top it off to one bad night. Would still dine here again.
Great and fun delicious food Local flavor and specialties Great service
As always, the food and service was wonderful. We eat here often and always have good service. The food choices are unique and tasty.
had a reservation, being in the near by park, we arrived an hour early and was accommodated within 20 minutes - that is a service that keeps this a return to restaurant
Have eaten here several times over the last year. Always pleased with the courteous wait staff. The food is excellent, freshly prepared, and served hot. The specials are different, the ingredients are fresh and the staff always has a recommendation of wine or beer. Not a good place for children as the bar can become a bit loud sometimes. Eating on the porch is my favorite, with a fireplace during the winter. I can't wait to go back.
We are always ready to make a reservation at Bistro Roca when in Blowing Rock. Great ambiance and interesting food selections. The atmosphere is perfect for a mountain experience.
We enjoy dining here weekly! The food and service is always excellent. Thanks!
This place is #4 on trip adviser's list for the best restaurants in Blowing Rock. It should be #1. What a fabulous meal worthy of most big cities!
While parking can be a challenge and you'd better have a reservation, both are worth dealing with in order to enjoy Brunch here on Sundays. The food is always outstanding and the service is very friendly, but can be a tad slow. While you're in the mountains, slow down and you won't even notice that! Highly recommend for any meal of the day, dinner is spectacular as well.
This is a great restaurant in a park-like setting just 3-4 blocks from Main Street. Prosciutto-wrapped figs and Lobster Mac and cheese were great appetizers. The tenderloin was superb and my Monchong special (a Hawaiian fish) was one of the best fish dishes I've ever had. Desserts were delectable. Service was very friendly and attentive. My only negative comment is that the wine list is limited and especially light on higher end offerings. Our Mettler zin was fine but was the most expensive bottle at only $44. I suspect this is intentional as a conscientious management wants to keep prices down, but a few more expensive selections would probably be welcomed by the clientele. We will definitely be back.
My husband and I are from out of town. Lots of people said we had to try Bistro Roca. We made reservations online. Everything was great! Service was good and our food was excellent! I would recommend this to others as well!
This restaurant is hidden from passing traffic. However, it is well worth looking out. The food is fantastic. I had the tuna dish and my wife had the special which was also a fish dish. Both were absolutely 1st class. Must also mention our server - Nick - very welcoming, friendly and a great asset to the restaurant.
The trout was outstanding. Very enjoyable experience.
Our group of six had a great meal and especially enjoyed the special of the day. The waiter was knowledgeable concerning the wine, beer and food. Loved the peanut butter pie. I would recommend reservations as this restaurant is always busy. Every aspect of your dining experience has been considered by this establishment and they are doing it right!
Recently we dined with friends on a very busy fall Friday night. We requested the porch because it is usually less noisy out there. On this night, the noise levels reached new heights. Also a couple with a very large dog was beside us. The dog was adorable but took up most of the space between the tables. We eat at BR frequently and had never seen a dog on the porch. Interesting! The food was great as always. We had a casual meal of burgers and pizzas. The BR burger is delicious with the onion rings on top. The wine list offers good values but the pours are sometimes small. The service was good, but we felt like the waiter was quite over booked. We love BR and will return - once all the leaves have fallen and the crowds lessen!
We love Bistro Roca - one of our most favorite places to eat in Blowing Rock - always good!
Eclectic and vibrant...in menu and in patrons. A great time.
Excellent as always! Run out of some desserts as usual. Crab/lobster cakes to die for. Pork & grits really good. Always a lively bar scene, but not noisy in restuarant side. Nice menu available in bar area.
We love Bistro Roca. Hands down it's our favorite spot in Blowing Rock. Saturday night's overall experience was fine, but had a bumpy start because the host was struggling to determine where we (a party of 8) should be seated. We made our reservation weeks ago, and even called the week before to confirm and determine the best table to accommodate our group. Needless to say, I was pretty dismayed when the host -- who sat us 15 minutes late -- suggested splitting up our party. Not an option, I told him, and eventually, thankfully one of the owners stepped in with a creative, and pretty obvious solution. The food was incredible, as always, and our server, Nick, was friendly and kind and knowledgeable.
my favorite restaurant in Blowing Rock...has been for years. Food, service, ambiance never let you down. Consistently excellent every visit.
Never have we been so under-prepared for "a local gem!" It made no sense to us what the fuss was all about--other than there were 90 reviews written for this special little place tucked inside a stunning neighborhood on the side of a mountaintop. All of these hand written reviews which were 4 and 5 stars. The food was truly beautifully prepared with attentive yet unobtrusive staff. The whole experience was coherent (bar service to wait staff to menu options) with an ambiance that reflected old-world grace with current trends and freshness. We are fans. Big, loyal, happy fans. A new twist of an insider's 5 star restaurant.
O...M...Goodness....we had the Lobster Crepe Brunch Special Sunday and it was beyond delicious!!! We sat on the porch and it was a little noisy as the restaurant seemed to seat all the families with young children out there but the food made up for it.
Very much enjoyed brunch here on Sunday! Always excellent food, every changing menu and friendly service. Make a reservation though, or you may be disappointed......
The food was delicious, the service was great. Beautiful restaurant. One of my favorites.
We love Bistro Roca. It's a must visit each time we visit BR. Service as always was top notch.
Had a great meal Saturday night. Loved the atmosphere and loved the location, hidden away from the crowds on Main Street. Service was great. Will be making it a tradition on her annual treks to Blowing Rocks.
Our annual girl's weekend happens each November and this was our 2nd year celebrating at Bistro Roca. We just love the mood of the place, the menu options - from fancy to pizza - a great wine list and, most importantly, stellar service!!! Our server was Jenny and she was personable, funny and efficient. Another server, Steve, also stopped to chat and was terrific. Very professional!
I love this place. It is always a treat to go up to Blowing Rock and eat there. It is relaxed, but one has the pleasant sensation of being in a very nice place. One aspect that is probably not much touted: a good selection of beers.
We loved our meal/ambiance/service SO much that we went back the next day!!!
This is a special place. We are always a bit disappointed when we try another place. Now, we just go to the Antler's. There is no competition in the High Country....good food, good wine, interesting people, and great ambience.
Excellent food quality. On par w/ restaurants in Cancun, Manhattan, & San Francisco. Look forward to returning.
Bistro Roca remains a favorite with us, and we eat there frequently. Sometimes we eat entrees and other times pizza and burgers. All dishes are delicious and well prepared. The onion rings on the burgers are crispy, fresh and excellent. Since leaf season Is over, it is much easier to get in Roca; however, reservations are suggested on weekends. Parking is often challenging, but there is a great public lot about a block away. The staff is always good, and Chelsea is a favorite. She makes dining a pleasure. The wine list is varied in price and selections. Enjoy!
Not a world traveler, but I do know recognize a good restaurant. Don't the let outside fool you. Inside is a great bar, attentive service, a very romantic dining room, an uncrowded menu and delicious and savory food. Bistro Roca is one of my favorites in that region of the Carolinas. WSB Spartanburg , SC
Rest is adorable. Great atmosphere. V good food most of it homemade.
Came in on Black Friday. Had reservations so go right in. First time; restaurant is here at and well appointed. Great food!! Great service our server- Ed! Our new restaurant in BR! Loved it!
We have visited Bistro Roca many times. Lunch/brunch is our favorite time to dine here. This visit was the Saturday after Thanksgiving--very busy but still the same quality of food and service. We love the flavors, the friendliness, and the overall experience. Great cocktails too.
We lucked in to a reservation on Thanksgiving Saturday with only 24 hours notice. The restaurant is a couple of blocks off of crowded Main Street which is a plus. I had the wood-fired brussel sprouts salad with chicken which was very good. Others in our party liked the BR burger. We will definitely come back!
And as usual it was lovely- all the way around. Though the walk back in the pouring rain was a but nasty! But we know the mtns and the weather so it doesn't deter us.
This is a restaurant with a cozy mountain atmosphere and fantastic food. They have the best calamari appetizer I have ever eaten and the menu is unique. My friends and I always go to Blowing Rock in December for a weekend of shopping and when deciding where to eat, the choice of Bistro Roca is always unanimous.
My husband and I have eaten at this restaurant at least once every time we come to Blowing Rock. We are building a house near by so we are there about once a month. The menu is great, and the specials never disappoint. We look forward to our January visit, and at least one meal at Bistro Roca. thanks Sharon and Gerry Stovall (Louisville Ky)
We have been looking for a new favorite since the Blowing Rock Grill closed down and after our meal Saturday night I believe we have! Our food was excellent and our waiter was very informative and friendly, but he was not on top of things. We had to ask for our drinks to be refilled several times and even though he walked right past us numerous times he didn't stop and check to see if we needed anything. The food was amazing! The restaurant itself was great inside! And we really like the overall feel of the place - we will defiantly be back! We may just hope for a different server next time... Nice guy, just not "johnny on the spot"

Ford Center for the Performing Arts Oriental Theatre
24 West Randolph Street,
37 people favorited this theater
Showing 1 - 25 of 213 comments
Today (June 4) marks the 35th Anniversary of the fire that broke out in the lobby area of the balcony. So ironic that a fire would break out nearly 75 years after the Iroquois Theatre disaster happened at the same location.
When I clicked it, it didn't work, but displayed after I refreshed it.
Hmmm. I'm still getting "Image cannot be displayed because it contains errors" in faint lettering at the top.
btkreft, there is no photo on that link. Just a grey background.
From Getty Images, here is a 1933 night view of Randolph Street from State Street with the vertical signs of the Oriental and United Artists Theaters lit up.
i saw the world premeire of 'PARIS HOLIDAY' in 1958 and saw BOB HOPE IN PERSON at the oriental theater
Longtime Oriental Theatre manager Mickey Gold, who ran the place for the last 30+ years as a movie theatre, shared great stories about his work lunches with some of the stage performers (big band leaders and The Three Stooges, for example).
Here is 1958 view of Randolph Street, with the Oriental in the background and Allgauer's Heidelberg restaurant in the foreground.
A pre-restoration view of the exterior of the Oriental can be seen here.
I can recall seeing one of the last combination stage/movie performances at the Oriental. Can't remember the year but i do remember the star singing on the stage was a man named Don Cherry.
Here is a 1951 view of Randolph Street showing the Oriental Theater marquee. The massive vertical sign has been taken down by this time, but the steel support beams can still be seen sticking out of the facade of the building (as are those of the United Artists Theater across the street).

Thanks for posting that picture btkrefft. My father worked as a musician at the Sherman House Hotel in the background, right around this same time after WWII. First as a trombone player, then on upright bass after big band faded out. He played in the Del Rainy Trio, and once played with Stan Kenton. He met my mom in 1954. She was a showgirl at the Silver Frolics at Kinzie & Wabash. He later went on to compose the Miller High Life theme, which got his foot in the door of Chicago industrial film.
Here is a 1945 night view of the Oriental seen from the corner of State and Randolph Streets.
On this day in 1943, the Oriental Theatre opened an exclusive one-week engagement of Billy Rose's traveling road show, "Diamond Horeshoe Revue," featuring showgirls and performers from the producer's famous New York City nightclub. Staged by John Murray Anderson, the revue claimed 12 spectacular scenes and a cast of 50, including some of "America's Most Beautiful Girls" and veteran entertainers like Charles King, Tess ("Aunt Jemima") Gardella, and Walter Wahl. On screen, the Oriental offered the Chicago premiere of Republic's B&W spy thriller, "The Purple V," with John Archer and Mary McLeod.
I wonder if some of those old kung-fu movies are on DVD. I've always been curious about them.
Well this must be a first.
This February The Oriental will be hosting the upcoming Chicago mayoral debates and telecasting them live on ABC Channel 7.
It will be interesting to see if they do any exterior or interior panoramic shots to showcase the theatre.
Someone needs to snap a pic of the marquee advertising this event if they do so.
The Oriental presented its final kung-fu triple on this date, 30 years ago, and closed its doors. The theatre finally re-opened in 1998 as a live stage venue.
Yes, that must be it. I have never been at the Limelight/Excalibur either for the same reason.

Changing CTARGET_ALIASES to FAKE_TARGETS for consistency with binutils. (Portage version: 18.104.22.168)

1.3.10-r1 stable on amd64. Removing 1.3.9. Adding 1.4.0 which adds support for creating ctarget aliases based on the GCC_CTARGET_ALIASES variable in the /etc/env.d/gcc/ config file. This is setup automatically on multilib profiles with recent gcc emerges. (Portage version: 220.127.116.11)
Releasing into ~arch. (Portage version: 2.0.51-r15)
Make gcc-config support gcc version strings containing '-'. This allows for wider multislot support. (Portage version: 2.0.51-r15)
Multilib fixes. Copies libgcc_s.so* to the correct location for all abis. Allows command line args to override ${ABI}. This should resolve bugs #78306 and #78652. (Portage version: 2.0.51-r15)
Make sure old gcc-configs dont exist #79062. (Portage version: 2.0.51-r14)

Make sure that when we switch compilers, we dont accidently invalidate all of our ccache data #70548.
Change encoding to UTF-8 for GLEP 31 compliance
punt 1.3.7 and fix ChangeLog
Rolling in support for CFLAGS_${ABI}. Rolling g{cc,++}{32,64} support into the wrapper.
Seems people still have outdated gcc versions installed which break with GCC_SPECS="". Add a warning if their gcc is broken so they know they have to re-emerge gcc.
version bump
Portability patch #73617 by Sunil.
Err, we want to handle GCC_SPECS, not GCC_CONFIG. Also make sure duplicate paths arent duplicated in LDPATH now that gcc is exporting multiple spec files per ebuild.
Make sure GCC_CONFIG is taken only from the selected profile.
Version bump to add a lot of cross-compile fixes. Also perform sanity checking on GCC_SPECS #68799, dont create wrappers in the ebuild #72745, and dont install /lib/cpp unless the system supports C++.
Fixed Bug 72557, where gcc-config would get very confused with non-gcc-lib ldpaths
Add GCCBITS support to wrapper.
move 32bit/64bit wrappers out of toolchain.eclass
override umask #68699 and make sure we use a functional gcc-config version #68700

stable on ppc64
fixed the handling of GCC_SPECS-specific gcc configs
Stable on alpha.
added the fix for bug 63973

fix #29950 #48492 and more !
also port changes to multi-ldpath
clean up the help output, add support for -v|--version and -h|--help options, and then add the version to the gcc-config after installing
Update wrapper to also treat symlinks as valid targets - this fixes a problem where -gcc called the symlink, and not the proper binary. Also fix a few issues where we used data->tmp as they can cause possible corruption when used in recursive calls and child functions. Closes bug #39162.
I did not use REAL_CHOST in all cases, ending up with /usr/bin/-gcc, etc files, as CHOST was not set.
amd64 necessary changes for gcc-3.3.1-r5
Mark 1.3.3-r1 stable for all
fix for when portageq not in path

Hmm.. a box with 4 sides isn't particularly stable for shear loads. What's resisting the shear loads is probably the bracketry that holds the stringers to the uprights (gussets?) or, if there is diagonal bracing in the grid. But.. I wouldn't go off the mfrs spec sheets, per se. Ask them for the engineering drawings and calculations, and YOU can evaluate how much margin there is. Whoever installed the floor should have done these calculations to get the building permit. As far as leaning on a rack and causing a shear failure: 1) I doubt the tiles provide much resisting force for this. So, it's entirely the grid. 2) Is your installation rated for seismic loads? and if so, how big? 0.3g tells you that you can push 3000 N on a rack weighing 1000 kg without it failing, no? >but I guess that's the real point: it's a question of how much lateral >thrust might possibly be encountered, and how well, say, a tile-less >mesh of stringers+feet would handle it. > >thanks, mark hahn. > >_______________________________________________ >Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf at beowulf.org >To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit >http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf James Lux, P.E.

Three years ago, Pocoyo joined the Earth Hour initiative in Spain, partnering with WWF-Spain, using creative play to communicate messages to young children about how each and every one of us can participate, with simple actions, to take care of and respect our planet. In 2011, Pocoyo expanded his role to a global level as the 'Global Kids' Ambassador for Earth Hour, reaching out to his fan base of millions of young children, their parents and caregivers across the globe to demonstrate how each and every one of us can take part in saving planet Earth.
"Pocoyo is about a young boy's discovery of the world around him, which makes it such a perfect fit with the objectives of Earth Hour and the World Wildlife Fund. Through the development of innovative content delivered on a variety of media platforms--a strategy that has been at the core of Pocoyo's brand growth—Pocoyo has encouraged hundreds of thousands of young children to not only turn out the lights for that one hour in March, but also provided them with easily comprehended tips on how they can continue to incorporate eco-friendly habits into their daily lives."

The QRZ database is a poor way to check if someones legitimate. It only automatically includes U.S. hams and even then, an individual can ask to be removed from it. To use it as a check for a foreign ham, well the OP must not have been thinking as only the ones that sign up to be listed on QRZ are included.

Unit 2 at Susquehanna Nuclear Plant Shut Down for Planned Inspection
BERWICK, Pa., May 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Unit 2 at the Susquehanna nuclear power plant in Luzerne County, Pa., shut down on Wednesday (5/30) for a planned inspection of its turbine.
Workers will inspect turbine blades from the Unit 2 low-pressure turbine for indications of cracking following the discovery of cracks during recent inspections of the Unit 1 turbine. The cracks on the Unit 1 turbine were similar to, but less extensive than, those discovered and repaired on both turbines in 2011.
"We are prepared to perform the inspection and any turbine blade replacements that may be needed for the continued safe operation of the unit," said Timothy S. Rausch, PPL Susquehanna senior vice president and chief nuclear officer. "Nuclear safety drives all of our decisions in operating the plant and addressing equipment issues."
Workers also will install additional diagnostic equipment on the turbine to complement the equipment installed in 2011. PPL will use the data from the equipment to validate the suspected causes of the turbine blade cracking currently under engineering review.
Workers are wrapping up outage tasks on Unit 1 and are preparing it for restart in the near future.
PPL Corporation (PPL) previously announced that the financial impact of the additional turbine work on both Unit 1 and Unit 2 at the Susquehanna plant, including energy sales margins and repair costs, is not expected to be material, and that the company is maintaining its 2012 forecast of $2.15 to $2.45 per share in earnings from ongoing operations.
The Susquehanna plant, located in Luzerne County about seven miles north of Berwick, is owned jointly by PPL Susquehanna LLC and Allegheny Electric Cooperative Inc. and is operated by PPL Susquehanna LLC.
PPL Susquehanna LLC is one of PPL Corporation's generating affiliates. Headquartered in Allentown, Pa., PPL Corporation owns or controls through its subsidiaries about 19,000 megawatts of generating capacity in the United States, sells energy in key U.S. markets, and delivers electricity and natural gas to about 10 million customers in the United States and the United Kingdom. More information is available at www.pplweb.com.
"Earnings from ongoing operations" should not be considered as an alternative to reported earnings, or net income attributable to PPL, which is an indicator of operating performance determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). PPL believes that "earnings from ongoing operations," although a non-GAAP financial measure, is also useful and meaningful to investors because it provides management's view of PPL's fundamental earnings performance as another criterion in making investment decisions. PPL's management also uses "earnings from ongoing operations" in measuring certain corporate performance goals. Other companies may use different measures to present financial performance.
"Earnings from ongoing operations" is adjusted for the impact of special items. Special items include:
- Adjusted energy-related economic activity (as discussed below).
- Foreign currency-related economic hedges.
- Gains and losses on sales of assets not in the ordinary course of business.
- Impairment charges (including impairments of securities in the company's nuclear decommissioning trust funds).
- Workforce reduction and other restructuring impacts.
- Acquisition-related adjustments.
- Other charges or credits that are, in management's view, not reflective of the company's ongoing operations.
Adjusted energy-related economic activity includes the changes in fair value of positions used economically to hedge a portion of the economic value of PPL's generation assets, full-requirement sales contracts and retail activities. This economic value is subject to changes in fair value due to market price volatility of the input and output commodities (e.g., fuel and power) prior to the delivery period that was hedged. Also included in energy-related economic activity is the ineffective portion of qualifying cash flow hedges, the monetization of certain full-requirement sales contracts and premium amortization associated with options. This economic activity is deferred, with the exception of the full-requirement sales contracts that were monetized, and included in earnings from ongoing operations over the delivery period of the item that was hedged or upon realization. Management believes that adjusting for such amounts provides a better matching of earnings from ongoing operations to the actual amounts settled for PPL's underlying hedged assets. Please refer to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and MD&A in PPL Corporation's periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for additional information on energy-related economic activity.
Statements contained in this news release, including statements with respect to future earnings, cash flows, financing, regulation and corporate strategy, are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although PPL Corporation believes that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the statements. The following are among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements: market demand and prices for energy, capacity and fuel; weather conditions affecting customer energy usage and operating costs; competition in power markets; the effect of any business or industry restructuring; the profitability and liquidity of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; new accounting requirements or new interpretations or applications of existing requirements; operating performance of plants and other facilities; the length of scheduled and unscheduled outages at our plants; environmental conditions and requirements and the related costs of compliance, including environmental capital expenditures and emission allowance and other expenses; system conditions and operating costs; development of new projects, markets and technologies; performance of new ventures; asset or business acquisitions and dispositions; any impact of hurricanes or other severe weather on our business, including any impact on fuel prices; receipt of necessary government permits, approvals, rate relief and regulatory cost recovery; capital market conditions and decisions regarding capital structure; the impact of state, federal or foreign investigations applicable to PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; the outcome of litigation against PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; stock price performance; the market prices of equity securities and the impact on pension income and resultant cash funding requirements for defined benefit pension plans; the securities and credit ratings of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries; political, regulatory or economic conditions in states, regions or countries where PPL Corporation or its subsidiaries conduct business, including any potential effects of threatened or actual terrorism or war or other hostilities; foreign exchange rates; new state, federal or foreign legislation, including new tax legislation; and the commitments and liabilities of PPL Corporation and its subsidiaries. Any such forward-looking statements should be considered in light of such important factors and in conjunction with PPL Corporation's Form 10-K and other reports on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — The National Council for Prescription Drug Programs said Wednesday it would host an educational summit on the use and impact of new pharmacy and health-integration technologies next month in Las Vegas.
NCPDP's educational forum, "Leveraging New Technologies: Impact on the Patient and Healthcare Industry," will take place Feb. 8 at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. The summit will preview the latest innovations that keep the pharmacy industry leading the charge for automation in healthcare to improve quality and efficiency, according to the not-for-profit pharmacy standards development organization.
The summit is intended for pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, payers, HIT vendors, pharmacies, processors, producers, healthcare providers, clinicians, patient advocates and others "interested in taking a closer look at the pharmacy of the future," NCPDP noted.
Among the topics to be explored:
Technology advancements and emerging technologies;
The evolving role of pharmacists as essential members of the healthcare team;
