Central line infections, ventilator-acquired pneumonia and sepsis are all life-threatening infections that patients may be exposed to after they have been admitted to the hospital. HHC's two-year-old Critical Care Collaborative is fighting back with expert teams focused on each of these hospital-acquired infections.
The Critical Care team at Lincoln Hospital was among the first to tackle the issue of sepsis, a virulent blood stream infection that implicates internal organs and often leads to septic shock. After several months of implementing best care practices, the mortality rate for severely septic patients dropped from 45 percent to less than 25 percent.
Other HHC facilities are preventing central line infections in patients who are receiving medicines and fluids intravenously by following five steps, including maximal sterile barrier precautions and cleaning the patient's skin with the antiseptic chlorhexidine. By implementing these steps - called a "bundle" - several HHC hospitals have experienced 25 to 50 percent reduction in central line infections and are saving lives.
Another major patient safety intervention used by HHC hospitals is preventing ventilator-acquired pneumonia. By following four steps, including raising the head of the patient's bed between 30 and 45 degrees, Woodhull Hospital's ICU went 18 months without reporting a single case. Five other HHC hospital ICUs reported a record breaking number of months without a single central line infection. The Healthcare Association of New York State honored Queens Hospital Center for its significant reduction in central venous catheter bloodstream infections, citing it as a model for the other hospitals.

I have lived in Jeffersonville for eight years. It is very depressing to drive down Main Street, seeing all the empty stores. So many businesses have left the area. I was dismayed to learn that we were losing an "icon". Markley Farms Swim Club is closing after 51 years. My granddaughters were born here and derived much pleasure from the swim club (swimming lessons, swim competitions, friendships and even summer employment). Then along came the YMCA wanting to infuse some life into the community by opening the pools and possibly purchasing the property to build a recreation facility. I thought this was a win-win situation for everyone.
I went to the meeting, anxious to see how the proposal fared. There were arguments pro and con. Almost all the pros were young parents, concerned about the future of their children. I was baffled at the unanimous decision against this proposal. Why are the commissioners turning their backs to the needs of the children and alienating young families? Aren't they the backbone of the community?
I passed the swim club and noticed the YMCA had removed their sign. It's going to be a long, hot summer without the swimming pools.

Hi, my son is now 28 months and has been in a bed since 2 weeks before his first birthday as he was cimbing out of the cot. He has only ever slept 15 full nights in the last 2 years and I am at the end of my tether with him. He omes into my room and gets me to go to his bed and cuddle him. He has been to see a chiropractor as one night he screamed for 5 hours and his jaw was out so all fixed and still waking. I have tried the safety gate at his door and he just stands there screaming "MUMMY,MUMMY" and he has woken his sister on several occasions. My biggest dilemma is I am working at home and they are with me all day. Then his behaviour through the day is attrocoius, he has been biting his sister, hitting her and just taking everything off her.
Does anyone have any ideas for me to try??????? PLEASE!!!!!!!!

GameStop: PS3, Wii shortages won't end "for months"
You haven't eaten lunch for a whole year. You've sold organs you didn't even know you had. On the rare occasion that you venture out to a restaurant, your meals are more spit than food because you've become notorious for never-ever tipping.
But all of that's ok! Because now you can afford a fancy-shmancy "next-generation" game console. Your life's back on track, it's all uphill from here, and… hold on. "Sold out"?!

Reggie – No Nintendo hardware shortages this Holiday
NoA boss Reggie Fils-Aime's told MSNBC that he's not expecting any Wii or DS hardware shortages running into the end of 2009.
"From our stand-point, we're prepared," he said when asked if punters can expect to go begging this Christmas.
"We have a tremendous amount of product in inventory. We're been flowing product into retail. We do not expect to have shortages on our products."
The exec laid out the inevitable caveat.
"Now, if we do experience them, I'd love to have that problem," he added, "but we're not seeing that happening this year."
Quick. Buy three Wiis. Who knows when they'll run out again?

Chance of finding a Christmas Wii "much, much better this year," says GameStop man
There's clearly a "messaging" issue going on here. Despite GameStop CEO Dan DeMatteo saying a month ago that getting a Wii this Christmas was going to be some kind of living hell, GameStop vice president of merchandising, Bob McKenzie, has told MTV that no one needs to worry. It's all going to be fine.
"It's been a unique ride for Nintendo to have the Wii going into a third year this November where the consumer may still be searching for it," he said.
"Our look from Nintendo, though, is that it will be much, much better than it has been the last two years. I can't say we will be in stock every day throughout the holiday season but I can tell you that the current flow we've seen coming from Nintendo on Wii hardware makes us very confident that we will meet the business model that we've got."
There's a full interview through the link.

GameStop: No "end in sight" for Wii shortages
GameStop CEO Dan DeMatteo has told GameDaily that there are nothing like enough Wiis to go around at the moment, and he thinks it's a problem that's going to run into the holidays.
"I've never seen this type of demand before. I know they're making more, but we're still short like everybody else. I think we'll have a continued shortage this Christmas," he said.
He continued, "I don't see a near-term end in sight for Wii shortages, not unless they really ramp up supply. I think they've ramped it up 20 percent or so, but Nintendo is fairly cautious by nature. They ramped it up 20 and it's still evaporating."

Where California's money went
Published: Sunday, February 24, 2013 at 3:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, February 22, 2013 at 3:15 p.m.
Gov. Jerry Brown has received praise for proposing a balanced state budget for the fiscal year starting July 1. The last time California proposed a balanced budget was in 2007, when Arnold Schwarzenegger was governor.
A recent report by California Common Sense, a nonprofit research group, describes how state finances changed over that period. (Disclosure: I am on the organization's board.) State revenue is expected to be $139 billion in 2013-14, a gain of $11 billion from 2007-08. This isn't surprising, given that California raised the top income-tax rate to 13.3 percent from 10.3 percent, increased the sales-tax rate to 7.5 percent from 7.25 percent and boosted regulatory and other fee collections by 36 percent.
In light of the growth in revenue, one might expect spending on public services to be back at the levels of six years ago, if not higher. Recovery in this spending is important because in the U.S. system, it is the states that do the blocking and tackling. They "have the principal responsibility for most domestic governmental functions including education, safety, health, infrastructure, administration of justice and implementation of the social safety net," as Paul Volcker, the former Federal Reserve chairman, and Richard Ravitch, the former lieutenant governor of New York, put it in their 2012 report on state budget crises.
Yet in California, spending on many of those services will be lower than six years ago. Social services, including welfare, will receive $1.3 billion less. The state will contribute almost $900 million less to the University of California and California State University. Even K-12 education will receive no more than it did six years ago.
To make up the difference, citizens are paying more. Tuition doubled at California State University and more than doubled at the University of California. State park fees and court-filing fees cost 56percent and 36 percent more, respectively.
Where did the revenue increase go? In short, to health care, employee compensation, retirement benefits and debt service.
State spending on health care, almost $28 billion, will be 62 percent higher than in 2007-08. (Including federal funds, the state will spend more than $60 billion on health care.) Spending on salaries and retirement costs has been boosted by 18 percent to $23 billion a year (or more if university salaries are included). Debt service is up by 23percent to $5.8 billion a year.
Spending on those categories is destined to keep growing for five reasons: First, California has opted to expand Medicaid eligibility under the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, a step that, according to the RAND Corp., will increase state spending by as much as $4 billion a year starting in 2016, on top of normal growth in health-care costs.
Second, even after the recovery of investment markets, unfunded pension liabilities officially grew by $80 billion over the six years because pension liabilities increased faster than pension assets. (As measured by financial economists, pension liabilities rose even more.) Public-pension funds must not only make up for lost ground but also grow at a high rate or fall even further behind. As a result, pension costs for governments will keep rising.
Third, the California State Teachers' Retirement System is seeking a source for an extra $4.5 billion a year in pension contributions (and more if it doesn't achieve its unlikely earnings target). To meet that need, the state faces a dilemma. If school districts put up the money, $4.5 billion is more than those districts will receive in total each year from the tax increase passed by California voters in November, which means that new tax revenue won't make it to the classroom. If the state puts up the money, $4.5 billion is more than the state's share of that tax increase, which means more crowding-out of state services.
Fourth, because the state doesn't pre-fund health care for retired government employees, it has officially built up an additional $80 billion in unfunded promises. As more of the aging workforce retires, pay-as-you-go health costs for retired employees, which rose more than 60 percent over the six-year period, will keep growing rapidly.
Fifth, the state has issued $28 billion of general-obligation bonds since 2007, a 56 percent increase, and Brown has ambitious plans for California's transportation and water systems, subject to voter approval. (Unlike spending on health care, employee salaries and retirement benefits, voter approval is required for the issuance of bonded debt.) California proves what Volcker and Ravitch concluded in their report, which is that state revenue simply cannot keep up with the rates at which health care and employment costs are growing. Failure to address those problems portends even more tax and fee increases and the loss of public services.
To his credit, Brown has called for a special session on state health care spending. He knows those expenditures must be addressed if other services are to be maintained. It remains to be seen what he intends to do about compensation and benefits.
California's 2007-08 balanced budget was followed by five years of deficits, four tax increases and several fee boosts, proving yet another point made by Volcker and Ravitch: State and local governments must go beyond deceptive cash-basis budgeting to provide open, detailed and honest accounting. Then, to truly balance their books for the long haul, they must address root causes of deficits.

Henry Flitz
CORALLVILLE, Iowa — Henry E. Flitz, 83, of Coralville, Iowa, died peacefully at his home in Coralville, Iowa, on Wednesday, Nov. 28, 2012.
Henry was born July 13, 1929 in Litchfield, the son of John and Mary Bohlen Flitz. Henry was a graduate of Blackburn College and also received a master's degree in agriculture from the University of Illinois. He served his country as a captain in the U.S. Air Force. Henry was employed for many years as a district director with the Farmers Home Administration.
On July 2, 1949, Henry and Elynor Stapp, the love of his life, eloped and were married in Petosi, Mo. Henry ("Red") and Elynor ("Ely") lived in Princeton for many years, later moved to Texas and subsequently made Coralville, Iowa, their summer home.

Baxter the Boxer and Bella the Labrador are being hailed as heroes for saving Ryle Smith's life. The 6 year-old wandered away from his Seneca, Missouri home on Tuesday.
His mother says he got stuck in the snow before his dogs kept him warm. "He was wearing no socks or shoes. His feet were so cold that it was the early stages of frostbite, he hadn't eaten dinner, he was exhausted and hungry. The dogs were lying on top. Complete strangers drove from surrounding cities and showed up at our doorstop. It was incredible. Most people have told me they have never seen a response like that."

"An exerpt"
'the dice now fully loaded, hurtled inevitably towards the chasm, where no woman, man or child, could ever return from!
Breakdown had occured, and it seemed as though this surreal nightmare was never to end. No conclusion, no resolve, just perpetual emptiness of mind, body and soul!
The small boy, just nearing his puberty, hormones racing around his entire being, was at a complete loss as to how something like this could of happened to him. Was it a monster?
"No, he thought to himself," it's not a monster, it's, it's a dinosaur!" Of course, why hadn't he thought of that before. Now he could get even, and the first object of his destruction would be that horrible person who had so cruelly emasculated his diminutive private part!
Well perhaps that was a slight exaggeration, as he knew it was still there, though at times it felt like it had been removed! The pain of Him tugging away, the upwards thrust, oh it just made him shudder right to the very core of his being.
'Dad, can I have a T Rex please," he whined! "Please, please please,"I really want one for my Birthday"! "Why,?" His Angry Father retorted, what do you want to do with one of those, they just eat everything?"
"I know Dad, but I promise, I wont make it eat people, I'll just make it eat tree's and grass, just stuff like that Dad" "Please?? He continued to whine, though it was falling on deaf ears as his father drifted off to another place, another time!
A hellish notion entered the mind of his overbearing father, one that took him on a journey, into a bottomless deep dark hole. He recalled that recurring dream he had had since his own adolesence.
That Pram, that bloody pram, I can't get out of it, why am I in a pram, I am too big for this, I can walk! Oh no here it comes again, the gravel pit, and the edge of the quarry, I am going to be tipped down there...
Damnation, to that woman, his thoughts quivered, as he snapped out of his daytime drama! Soon damnation will come, I will bide my time he thought, then that rotten nightmare will surely disappear!
Owen looked around the room, ignoring his small Son just for the moment. Amid the perpetual plea's for that eating machine, the television blaring, he clapped eyes upon his wife sitting in her chair, eye's downcast hair unkempt.
"Wonder what crap she will dish up for me to eat tonight he thought?" "No doubt some revolting experiment of her's, Oh hell I could do with a Pie" He knew what had to be done, immediately, as he was not going to afford himself the indignity of all her so called health food ventures.
"Hon, he exclaimed" I am just going up the street to get some supplies for us, bread and milk, before the kids run out of food for their school lunches!!"
Of Course his Wife knew darned well where he was going. Her father had enlightened her to his habitual junk food addiction some years earlier. She knew that no matter what she cooked, or how she prepared it, he would pretend to like it!.
Most of it ended up either in the fridge, or even worse still, on the bench where he hoped one of the cats may pinch what he hadn't been able to stuff in on top of the greasy junk food.
"Yeah, ok she muttered, What do you want for tea tonight dear?" "Whatever you want to make for me is fine,he uttered with such a tone of sarcasm, that it shook her brain like an earthquake. "why do I bother she thought, why do I bother!"
Little Nathan had not given up on his campaign to aquire that T-Rex, so without missing a beat, he quietly asked his Father if he could get just a small T-Rex at the supermarket, to which is father replied out of sheer exasperation, "ok no problem Son, I will give you anything you want, you know I love you, don't you?"
Candice knew the real reason for the unnecessary trip to the supermarket. The was plenty of bread and milk in the fridge, and it pained her so badly to think that her husband was so hell bent on self destruction.
His body was breaking down, his whole life was nearing oblivion, despite all attempts to help him reform his eating habits, he persisted in eating fatty junk food at every turn. Mealtimes had become a burden for her, and no pleasure was to be gained in preparing them.
"I might as well not bother anymore, she concluded, "but for the benefit of the children, I guess I will put something together, at least they like my cooking!"
While she was agonizing over what to prepare, that may just tempt the palate of her willingly Ingorant Husband, she recalled how he always liked to eat his Mother's mess. To her it was the foulest. Boiled vegetables, that had no nutritional value, plastered with Ketchup, eeewww yuk she shuddered, the smell of that muck.
"What on earth does little Nathan want with ferocious Dinosaurs all of a sudden, she mused?" He has always been such a passive natured Child?"
"What on earth has got into his head, why the sudden turnabout in attitude?" All these questions troubled her, on top of the knife like pain that had taken residence within her body since the car accident some years earlier.
"Oh dammit, she cussed, can I not make one meal one night of my life, without this crippling pain". If I could just feel normal for one day in my life, that would be so great!"
With those thoughts in mind, pain ecampassing her lower lumbar region, she rose from her sagging chair to set about making dinner, knowing most of it would end up in the dogs bowl, but for now, as usual she must perform her duties, after all, the dogs needed feeding!
" I hate this time of the night, I hate it, I hate it, and there's nothing later to compensate... I suppose it will be the usual routine of Midnight prowling, endless ebay searches, or more obsessive reading till the wee small hours..Oh the usual boring pointless crap"
Deep within those thoughts of extreme negativity, Candice flipped into her own little world, embracing her deepest fantasies which she knew would put a smile on her face, and give her wings of inspiration,even for just another night....
"I so miss that deep and tender kissing, she whimpered to herself, I would just die to have those strong arms about me again, soft tender kisses, that would lead to a hot passionate encounter"
Oblivious of all else around, and no Idea what was wrong with two of the most important men in her life, she cut up the carrots and cabbage for the stir fry!

£1 a day poverty challenge for Brockmoor's Adam
12:40pm Wednesday 9th May 2012 in Local
A 22 YEAR-old Brockmoor man is living below the poverty line this week in a challenge to highlight Christian Aid.
Adam Hadley is spending just £1 on food and drink each day to get an insight into how the world's poorest communities survive on so little, as well as raising funds for ongoing Christian Aid projects.
Adam, who is currently spending a gap year working with young people at Quinton Methodist Church, was inspired to take part in the challenge after taking part in a Christian Aid 12-day visit to Tajikistan in January.
He said: "The visit really had an impact on me. The generosity of the people there was beyond belief. They had so little, but gave us every little thing they had. They are people who do actually live on £1 a day and they spent it all on us.
"It was really humbling and made me think about things in a different way.
"I think it will be extremely difficult to cope with just £1 a day, so I'm going to have to shop around."
The former Pensnett School of Technology pupil is hoping to raise £200 towards the work of Christian Aid. Last year more than £1m was raised worldwide from people carrying out the challenge.

By Jason Hensel October 03, 2012
Debra Benton will be the keynote speaker on Smart Monday, Oct. 8 (8:30 - 10 a.m./08.30 - 10.00) at IMEX America, and she will dissect and decode the traits and nuances needed to elevate your presence in the world where you want to be—your authentic self.
We contacted Benton to learn more about her presentation and why you should attend it.
One+: How do you keep a positive attitude when times are tough? Debra Benton: Really, what is one's alternative: A bad attitude makes bad things worse; a good attitude makes bad things a little better. Personally I review my year and I ask myself, "So how many bad days did you have in 2012?" If I'm honest with myself it's maybe 2 or 3. So I decide that isn't too bad and say it's okay to add one more at this time. Then I try to make things change. First by telling myself, "Things are better, things are good, etc."
I might stretch the truth to myself, but it's better than stretching the truth as to how bad things are either. Then I repeat mantra-like "things are good/better" and honestly, in a short amount of time they do get better.
One+: What leadership styles are most effective in today's business world? DB: You are a leader today if you 1)excel in achieving your own mission, and 2) affect others in a way so they achieve their mission.
It is not a solo/star act that makes you successful, it's your affect on others. Leaders are made by being pulled up from above as well as pushed up from below. There is not room or tolerance for autocratic/my way or the highway.
One+: What are the key takeaways for attendees of your presentation? DB: The audience will have specific tools and techniques to be more memorable, impressive, credible, genuine, trusted, comfortable, competent and confident—in how they think, act and interact with people. They will know what it is to stand out and yet fit in.
Want to know more? Check out her recent sneak peak video and webinar.
Monday's general session is sponsored by Loews Hotels.

Ever since I saw The Empire Strikes Back in 1980 (or thereabouts) I have wanted to build the ISS Executor. Ever since LEGO started their Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series back in 1999, I have wished for the ISS Executor. Finally, after 12 years of waiting, it came out. I had forgotten to regularly check the product listings, so it had actually been out for a couple of months when I discovered it. I bought it without hesitation. The building process was genuinely fascinating and I found the brick-engineering often both clever and impressive. Until I realised the ship had no keel and the iconic main landing bay was, to put it politely, found lacking. Don't get me wrong, it looks gorgeous when viewed above the horizontal plane, but in the movies, in the first complete reveal of the ISS Executor, we see that mesmerising landing bay and hobbyists have, over the years re-created it in their LEGO fan models. Therefore I was shocked to see the frankly lame representation of it in this product. Because when you, an ISS Executor fan, have a model of the ship, you want to be able to raise it above your head and shout, "Look, they got the main landing bay and all!" This ship, it doesn't have a keel either and don't even get me started on the wrong colour of the engines. Also, since this is an Ultimate Collector Series product, I cannot understand the need to make it a "toy", with the minifigures and the nice-looking, but ill-concieved "hidden" bridge. Making all the figures fit inside so that they are standing when the roof is in place is *impossible*, and this ruins the product both as a model (the bridge is off-scale) and as a functional toy. LEGO Star Wars figures in general are great, but in an Ultimate Collector Series product *only* if they are in-scale with the model. All the time and money spent on engineering the bridge would have been better spent on the main landing bay and the keel. And why is there a Clone Trooper on the box cover? Wrong trilogy! All these things have been eating me for months and I hope that finally taking the time to write a review will give me some peace. This all said, I still love my LEGO ISS Executor. It's not exactly what I had hoped, but it's still bigger than that Japanese model and comes with a mini (ordinary) Star Destroyer that is just too cute to hate. Bottom line: LEGO, if you ever want me to buy another Ultimate Collector Series product, leave the off-scale portions out. I also have a wish: the ISS Eclipse. Now *that* ship is all about the keel and the only ship in the Star Wars Universe mightier than the ISS Executor.

I have just completed building this set and I must say that the Lego Corporation has done a fantastic job with regards to the Super Star Destroyer. Whether you are an avid collector or general consumer, you will greatly love and appreciate this set. This 50" behemoth brings Lego build bragging rights to a whole other level of awesome. I must say I am very impressed with the inclusion of a cockpit and minifigures to this 16+ scale model. It in no way takes away from the "exclusive-ness" or Ultimate Collection of the ship, nor does it detract from the fantastic scale modeling of the Star Destroyer. I must say this is Marketing genius. Being a Marketing major I can understand and appreciate these added things to a collector set. It allows a larger audience to be drawn to this set and therefore make more $$ while appealing to more people. Well done Lego Marketing Department. Also, to everyone complaining about no Bobba Fett: He is already in the Slave I, he doesn't HAVE to be in this set. The idea is for people to buy more products and that is why he isn't included, so you can buy the set that DOES have him. The fact that this set is so long (the longest set ever sold to the public) already makes it a reason to buy. The bragging rights among friends in what you have accomplished, even at my age, is a testament to how iconic Lego is. A great feature about the Super Star Destroyer is that it is a modular build. There is one giant spiral bound instruction booklet, but the bags and instructions are seperated 1-7. This makes organization and cooperative building extremely easy. I was able to build with my younger siblings with ease because we were able to divide up the instructions. I highly suggest this set for anyone who wants a challenge, bragging rights, and one great collection item. Fantastic work Lego, job well done. -Tripper

About Me Collector
Comments about LEGO Star Wars Super Star Destroyer (10221):
Went to the service desk, where I was able to get help ordering the item. Extra time was needed since the item wasn't in the store and wasn't in stock. I had a 15% off. The lady helped me order the product online and ship it to my house. She had to call corp in order to get the 15% off. This took time and effort to do this. She did a great job with all the paperwork and helping me with the 15% off and shipping.

Going one step further
By DefiantHammer
from Indianapolis
I always wanted the original Imperial Star Destroyer but never had the money to get it. Now that I am bringing in more money I took the dive and made the purchase. It took me 6 1/2 hours to build and was probably one of the best 6 1/2 hour experiences. When you open the box you will find a thin box with the instructions inside as well as 3 boxes of pieces. Lego nicely labels them so you don't have to have over 3,000 pieces in a mountain together making the build significantly easier. I wasn't sure if I was going to find a place to put this as it is HUGE once you get it built. I managed to move stuff around to make space on my dresser with a few other Star Wars Lego ships set around it. I decided to also take my project one step further. I found a model train website and purchased a bunch of LED lights and rigged them to the engines. If anyone is up to the challenge I would highly recommend trying to add this, it is a bit of work but it makes the set pop. Playability is very low because of the weight. It does come with a few characters that can easily be played with.
I am the type of person ...
By TedGreen
from Chico
I am the type of person who reads a lot of reviews before a purchase, so it was with a little bit of hesitancy that I bought the UCS SSD. Now, having just completed its construction, all that doubt has disappeared. First off, its HUGE! I knew its dimensions beforehand but once I started building it, the sheer magnitude of the thing finally hit me. The build itself, too, is excellent. It was so much fun to put together that I was more than a little disappointed when it was finished. PROS: ~ It is HUGE! I cannot reiterate this enough. ~ It looks great. ~ It is extremely sturdy and well-built. Definitely made to "fly" around the house. ~ The minifigures, though slightly generic, are excellent to display next to the set. (Bossk is my favorite) CONS: ~ It is HUGE! I'm not sure if it will fit in its preordained place! ~ Two pieces were missing. One was a round 2x2 plate with a cross axle hole in the middle. Instead of the required dark grey, a blue one was included. The other was a 1x2 plate with one center stud, which was just missing altogether. (I also received two extra medium "wing" plates, though I am not complaining (: ) Both pieces were easily replaced by ones from my own collection, so it wasn't a problem. This isn't a model for children to play with. While it is sturdy enough to play around with, there is not much to do other than "fly" it around. This is definitely a display model more than anything.
Amazing Set
By LegoEducator
from Undisclosed
This set is incredible as someone who deals with LEGO regularly as part of my job, i thoroughly enjoyed building this set, the experience i gained from it also allows to tell people about it much more accurately this set is huge, over 4 feet long, and is very impressive and is something I would consider a masterpiece though it is a commitment to build it is well worth the time and money.

Technological Terror
By CloneMarshalCommanderCody
Fantastic! It took me 14 hours to build (not nonstop). I built it over the course of 9 days. The sheer size of the model is amazing. It makes my Death Star look small. Since it is so large, I think there should be more rooms. There are lots of spaces where rooms could have been added, but the way the armor it attached they are inaccessible. The bridge is nice, but when you put on the cover Vader has to sit. The city on top is nice, as are the engines. I like the hologram piece. The build was quite difficult, and occasionally repetitive. That is why it took so long for me to build it (I got tired of the repeats, so I built very slowly). The small star destroyer is nice. I also like the plaque. Even though this is awesome, I would still recommend you buy the Death Star if you cannot decide between the two sets.

Fun, Sturdy, and Huge
By Cary888
from BROOKLYN
This maybe one of the most fun to build set I'd ever built by lego. Unlike many other large builds (B-wing) cough, this is sturdy, not to say it wont break if it drops but you can hold it up and its awesome looking. It is also huge, 4 feet long. Before you buy this think of a place to put this first otherwise it will be on the table you built it on.

Fantastic Build
By Ultramanagaito
I'm a star wars fan since I was young and the super star destroyer from Lego is just so detail and good. I have a fun time building it and yes, it took a lot of man hour but when it is completed. It really look fantastic. I love it and now I'm into building my X wing. Hope they keep on coming out star wars exclusive set which is detail and fun to build.

Most impressive
By Arthimesia
from Paal
I see a lot of people frowning upon this set, because of it's price, it's size, it's playability?! However, from my point of view, I absolutely love it! It was my 3rd UCS (have 5 now) and immediately the biggest aswel, the build took me around 18 hours (build it slowly, so I could enjoy it longer) and was very fun, however, at some points, it felt a bit repetitive. Also, as far as playability goes, you'd have to be mental to dare and play with this! it's size makes it impossible to be played with, (50" or 125cm). So, for people who are looking for a big ship, to PLAY with, I would definitely NOT recommend the Super Star Destroyer, simply because the chances of it falling are too high (pointing to little children now, not always the most careful around) However, for a display model, this is a must for every Lego Star Wars enthusiast Pro's: - It's size, most impressive - Sturdy and Strong display stand - Fun to build, as it takes a long time to do so - Some great building techniques here and there - Impressive instruction manual (both Pro & Con) Con's - Not for little children who prefer playability over display - Some parts are repetitive, but the end product makes it worth it - Big instruction manual book .. perhaps too big? (both Con & Pro)

The Executor
By ManeatinShEePs
from Canyon Lake
A lot of people come in and mark it down saying it isn't big enough, etc. This was my first UCS ever and it was very fun to build. it took me 10 1/2 hours to build. ( would of taken 10 but made a big mistake towards the end.) it is nearly 50 inches long and makes a great display piece, which is exactly what it i. I went in knowing it was a display piece and got what I expected. Some parts are repetitive, but it is a very symmetrical ship and that can't be avoided. It is a great addition to any collection.

More on Archive Systems
Sometimes you will need archive systems that can effectively store your documents and provide you with the resources to retrieve them as quickly as possible. Because of this, there are many companies now that make sure to locally store documents in a cloud setting for servers that are based in their buildings. It is important to make sure that all documents required for effective business solutions act up and archived correctly, so that there are no complications when it is time to deliver a document to a client. Failure in a proper archive system will result in possible litigation and legal repercussions, so it is important to make sure that a company has all documents provided when requested by the client. Luckily, there are archive solutions so that businesses can store their records effectively and not have to go looking for them when the time is right for them to be presented. Now you can streamline and manage records without any problem, no matter what industry the company might be in. In a future that would probably have less paper and board data being stored in the cloud, it is important to have local archive systems that are reliable and do not fail in providing the document when it is needed.

Wi-Fi phone
A cellular telephone that's capable of connecting to the Internet through a Wi-Fi network or hotspot is frequently referred to as a Wi-Fi phone. Wi-Fi mobile phones enable a person to make calls, send and receive text messages, receive voicemail and access the Internet when connected to a Wi-Fi network.
A second category of Wi-Fi phones lacks cellular telephone capabilities and essentially operates as VoIP over a Wi-Fi network, utilizing Voice over Wi-Fi, or Voice over WLAN, technology to make voice calls.
See "The Difference Between VoIP and PSTN Systems" in the Did You Know... section of Webopedia.

I think we need to have common sense abortion restrictions. It´s for the children. The (imaginary) amendment doesn´t mean unrestricted./s
Anything that lowers the production rate of new New Yorkers is a good thing. Make abortion mandatory in New York I say.
If we must have legalized murder of infants (i.e., abortion), I am totally in favor or unrestricted, free abortions on demand for any mother who can produce her voter registration card as proof that she is a registered Democrat.They want abortion; they can have it. The faster that Dems make themselves extinct through abortion, the better.

By Drew Brooks Staff writer
Fort Bragg's garrison commander took to social media Tuesday to discuss the effects of sequestration on the post.
Col. Jeffrey Sanborn tackled a number of questions during the virtual town hall meeting held through Facebook.
Questions touched on a variety of issues, including the canceled Fort Bragg Fourth of July celebration, lawn care, custodial services and potholes.
One participant asked why the July Fourth celebration was canceled even as the post prepares for the Fort Bragg Fair.
"I would think most people would prefer the Fourth of July over the fair," the person said.
Sanborn replied that, unlike the fair, the July Fourth celebration did not cover its expenses. The post loses a considerable amount of money on it, he said.
Fort Bragg spokesman Tom McCollum previously said the hurdle was overtime costs, which can run to more than $120,000.
Other questions dealt with possible civilian furloughs, which could affect as many as 8,500 workers.
"There are still at least three options being considered at the Department of Army level," Sanborn said. "The maximum option currently being considered is 14 days. We don't know right now when furlough letters will go out, if they go out, because no date has been announced for when furloughs will start."
Participants appeared understanding of the answers, even when Sanborn said he had no answer.
In reference to a question on tuition assistance, Sanborn said he simply did not know.
"Sorry, any answer we would give would be entirely speculation," he said. "That's a decision made well above our level."
For the most part, participants said they understand.
"OK, stuck between a rock and a hard place!" said one woman after another Sanborn response.
Other times, Sanborn was brief and to the point.
"We have become our 'own' cleaning team now. Was Fort Bragg that broke that the contract could not continue?" one woman asked.
Sanborn replied with a single word.
In other responses, Sanborn said:
Fort Bragg is still waiting to learn if its Child Development Center employees will be furloughed. If so, the center will be closed one day a week.
Community police and lawn care services for on-post housing will not be affected by sequestration because they are part of the contract with Corvais Military Living, the post's privatized housing contractor.
If furloughs take effect, commissaries would most likely be closed one day a week.
Youth sports and summer programs will not be affected. Opening ceremonies for youth sports are Saturday.
Fort Bragg has the materials to fix a pothole near Pope Elementary School but will not be able to buy new materials for similar fixes.
In other news, Sanborn said officials were attempting to come up with a plan to allow Cleland Ice Rink to remain open.
The rink is scheduled to be closed April 27 through Sept. 15 because of the high costs of operating it during the summer.
The plan to keep the rink open would involve a new pricing structure, Sanborn said.
"We are still running the numbers on feasibility, but if it looks promising, we will post a proposed fee structure to Facebook for public comment," he said.
Sanborn also discussed the possibility of privatizing the ice rink.
"Privatization is an option for any (Morale, Welfare and Recreation) activity," he said, "but we are not aware of anybody who would be interested in taking on this business opportunity. If anyone is interested, please contact MWR Headquarters at 910-396-9600."
Fort Bragg holds quarterly town hall meetings across the post. The next meeting is scheduled May 30 at 9 a.m. at the Yntema Club.

Baas for Champagne Ruinart $100,000 Centerpiece
At Art Basel Miami Beach next month, renowned French champagne house Ruinart will offer a one-of-a-kind surrealistic sculpture by Dutch artist Martin Baas. Designed as the ultimate centerpiece for a champagne-lover's table, the artwork (detail above) was inspired by an elaborate 18th century Venetian chandelier. Constructed from clear Murano glass and silver, the piece was designed to appear as if a chandelier has fallen from above and is melting into the table, along with bottles of Dom Ruinart and specially designed flutes. The piece will be offered for sale at $100,000.
"Maarten's piece is all at once elegant, complex, delicate and powerful," says Ruinart's Jean Christophe Laizeau. "It is the perfect physical representation of the Dom Ruinart universe. We could not have collaborated with a more innovative and inspiring artist to express the stirring sensory experience of vertigo." Founded by Nicholas Ruinart in Reims in 1792, Ruinart was introduced to the U.S. in 1831 by Viscount Edmond Ruinart, and has been a favorite of conoisseurs ever since.

How can a large urban district continually fail to educate more than half of its students for nearly half a century?
Superintendents were hired, experts in their field, paid an enormous amount of money and their best plans were closing and renaming schools, shuffling students, and changing curriculum. Unfortunately, no matter how many times they tried this, schools still failed.
It was time to break away from the status quo, especially since right down the road from many failing public schools were successful private schools. It was not hard to convince the general public that this was the answer. Public school is a failure, schools must be private in order to succeed.
What do private schools have that public schools do not? Their budgets are much lower, they pay their teachers much less, their instructional materials are not as up-to-date. So, the reason for their success must be because there is no union. Once again, not difficult to convince the public that teacher unions are the reason public schools are failing.
Though this is a very simplistic overview of the educational insanity that exists, it is not total fantasy. We become convinced that a building or books or tests or grade levels educate children. We become convinced that teachers aren't teaching because they're holding out for more money. Year after year of failure has allowed us to believe the expert lie spun to explain the educational failure of our country until the truth has become conspiracy theory.
The truth is schools don't fail children do. The truth is that we are failing to properly educate our children because it is profitable to do so. The more a district fails the more money it receives. Politicians have based their political careers on the education issue. Education is no longer about children and creating a better society. Mis-education has become the cash cow of the greedy and power hungry.
We must recognize the conspiracy and realize the truth. Education is about guiding children toward realizing their potential and using that potential to create a better world for everyone.

"Secrets of a Secretary" (1931).The print available on youtube is good; an engrossing film with Claudette Colbert (who in the first scenes at a lavish party is wearing a blond wig) as an impoverished socialite who has to work as a social secretary for a daffy matron played -perfectly- by Mary Boland. Georges Metaxa -who is featured in Astaire & Rogers great 1936 film "Swing Time"- plays a young foreign man disinherited by his rich father, who marries Claudette when it's still believed that her family has BIG money. I did not like his characterization, feeling it was forced and unnatural; In this Valentino-Gigolo kind of role I think that George Raft would have been better, in spite of the fact that he wasn't a great actor. Herbert Marshall plays a British Lord who falls for Colbert, rather unamusingly. Colbert with her incredible charm and talent carries most of this picture. A must-see for her fans.
