20 May 2006
SCTV on DVD Deepdiscountdvd.com is listing Best of the Early Years for release in October, which would appear to indicate that Shout has abandoned not only the rumored Series 3 set, but any plans to release the remaining unreleased shows in complete series sets. The lower list price also points to a smaller set.
8 May 2006
Music Rights The Wall Street Journal has an interesting article on the high cost of obtaining the music rights for DVDs of vintage TV shows. The article notes that clearing the rights to Freaks and Geeks cost Shout! Factory (producers of the SCTV sets) a cool $1 million for 118 songs, but they made it back with sales of 112,000 units. Going by recent articles (see previous news item), the most recent SCTV sets haven't been shifting anything like these quantities...
The article also provides indirect confirmation of the so far not officially announced SCTV Series 3 DVD set, referring to changes required to a sketch from that series: "Sometimes the artist behind a song simply will refuse to grant licensing rights altogether. Bob Emmer, chief operating officer of Shout! Factory, a DVD distributor, says that in preparing the DVD release of "Second City TV" he had to delete a scene from the 1970s comedy-sketch series that parodied musician Neil Young because he couldn't obtain rights from the artist. In the scene, an actor played a psychiatrist named "Dr. Neil Young" who gave answers to a patient's question only in lyrics from Mr. Young's songs. "He had a problem with it," says Mr. Emmer, declining to elaborate. A spokesman for Mr. Young had no comment." (Thanks J Robbins)
20 April 2006
DVD Sales According to a recent article on TV series on DVD, "outside that upper echelon of current hits, studios are starting to see softness in individual titles." Shout Factory in particular is said to have seen "sales for certain later releases of sketch series SCTV sell less than half of initial titles." Seems like more than a coincidence, then, that the delay in releasing the next set has been much longer than for previous ones. So if you haven't quite gotten around to buying a copy of Volume 4 (or any of the other sets) for yourself and several of your close and not so close friends (and its never too early to start thinking about Mother's Day, and credit is so cheap these days), do your bit to help ensure we enjoy more sets in the future.
11 April 2006
Other DVD News A couple of DVDs of note: Harry Shearer's Now You See It collects some of his SNL and HBO work, including a couple of sketches with Martin Short - Synchronized Swimming and Minkman Novelties (Thanks Eric Scheffel).

NEW YORK (MainStreet) -- Even if they don't make formal New Year's resolutions, most people start the year hoping to be at least a little better organized. So here, then, is a quick checklist for keeping the financial aspects of your vow.
Pay down debt. The key to ridding yourself of credit card debt that piled up during the holidays is to set a realistic schedule rather than vaguely resolving to use spare cash for debt reduction "whenever you can." The latter approach usually fails because, well, there's always a reason to start next month rather than this one.
Start with the debts that charge the highest interest rates, and don't to put new charges on those cards until the old ones are paid off. The BankingMyWay Credit Card Minimum Payment Calculator can help you devise the best strategy.
In a perfect world, credit card charges would be paid off during the grace period, to avoid any interest charges, but as a practical matter, it's generally not too costly to pay interest for two or three months if you can't pay it all off at once. But it is terribly expensive to incur late-payment charges, which can hurt your credit rating.
Many people transfer debts to new cards with zero-interest introductory periods. While the arithmetic can look attractive, searching for and applying for too many new cards can damage your credit rating. You'll look better by keeping just two or three cards for the long term and maintaining a history of on-time payments.

Optimal Power Pacing
The Optimal Cycling Project is a new & open source software program that provides the most sophisticated power pacing optimization for cyclists in time trial type races. It takes in the course profile of a race, the critical power curve of the cyclist, along with many other environment conditions and is able to consistently and efficiently generate the optimal power output of a cyclist.
A frequently asked question by time trialists and triathletes is how to correctly pace in a race to obtain the best possible time. The Optimal Cycling Project enables detail oriented athletes, coaches, and researchers to understand and help verify how to pace using power in a consistent and systematic way. It enables one to more quickly understand a race course before setting foot on it and to help demystify pacing.
The current version is Optimal Cycling V0.9.1 and is a cross-platform command line tool shown above. A graphical user interface is in development. You can view the current source code for the project online at http://code.google.com/p/optimalcycling/source/browse/#svn%2Ftrunk.
Some Examples of What It Can Do
What Sets the Optimal Cycling Project Apart
The key thing that sets the Optimal Cycling Project apart is that it pays attention to details. For example, whereas many previous papers and attempts at power pacing assumed steady state power and no acceleration, the Optimal Cycling Project does not make these assumptions that can adversely affect the results. Optimal Cycling generates the optimal power output WITH varying power AND acceleration throughout, as well as taking into account things such as hills and wind. The coding and math are much harder when such details are taken into account, but the end result is a more realistic and accurate answer. Optimal Cycling also enables you to create power optimizations for detailed courses, even if you want hundred or thousands of points in your simulation. This means that you can optimize power down to a course resolution of 10 or even 5 metres.
To optimize the power output, we have to use a suitable power metric that provides realistic results. A new & unique algorithm named CCAP (stands for Change Corrected Average Power) was the result of this effort. It takes into account the non-linearity of the effort required from high power outputs and also the power rate of the result. A new & unique algorithm was required to be developed because there were shortcomings in common power metrics, such as average power and general mean type metrics (like Normalized Power) where they could produce chaotic spikes in power.
To read more detailed information about the CCAP algorithm, please see http://optimalcycling.com/power-pacing/power-metrics/. More will be written about the power metric algorithms in the near future.
Another way that the Optimal Cycling Project raises the bar is that it is scalable and efficient. The core logic of Optimal Cycling is written in OpenCL, which enables it to run on multicore/GPGPU systems with relative ease. The algorithms used are optimized for parallel processing and speed since generating an optimal power output can be a very compute intensive task that can take hours for detailed simulations.
The solver in Optimal Cycling is a custom written version of differential evolution and the algorithm is modified with smoothing operators for much faster and consistent convergence. Many different function minimization methods were tested to arrive at the current algorithm. They include simulated annealing, particle swarming, Nelder-Mead, quasi-Newton, and genetic algorithms. The current solver has been tested up to 10,000 points on a single course.
Technical Aspects
Optimal Cycling is built using a combination of C# (.NET/Mono) and OpenCL. C# is used for the file I/O because it is easy to code in and it is cross platform thanks to the .NET framework in Windows and the open source Mono framework for Linux and MacOS systems. The C# code portion interfaces with the CLOO library (also written in C#), to enable the cross platform use of OpenCL. The core logic of Optimal Cycling is written in OpenCL because it provides relatively easy multicore/GPGPU processing. This enables Optimal Cycling to efficiently scale and parallelize the most compute intensive portions of the program.
The core logic of Optimal Cycling is written in such a way that you can take the OpenCL code and compile it on regular C/C++ compilers. This enables it to be ported to systems where OpenCL is not available with a little bit of work. However, my recommendation is that the OpenCL compiled version be used because it has much higher performance.
The current version of Optimal Cycling has Windows 32 and 64-bit native versions of the core code compiled into DLL libraries. This is for demonstration only to show that it can be done.
Open Source
The Optimal Cycling Project is open source and is available under the Lesser General Public License (LPGL). The goal is to enable ease of use while continuously improving the project algorithms. To view the code of the Optimal Cycling Project online, visit the project Google Code page at http://code.google.com/p/optimalcycling/. The project is currently written using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Professional on Windows 7 64-bit.
To compile the project successfully as provided, you will need either Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Professional or higher, or you will need Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professional or higher. Alternatively, you can use any version of Microsoft Visual Studio 2008/2010 or MonoDevelop if you delete the OptimalCyclingC_Lib_x64 and OptimalCyclingC_Lib_x86 projects from the code. These two projects are only needed if you want to compile Optimal Cycling into native machine code instead of to OpenCL.
To download the most up to date version of Optimal Cycling, please visit http://code.google.com/p/optimalcycling/downloads/list. New releases will be announced on the project homepage at http://www.optimalcycling.com.
Optimal Cycling is cross platform, so it should run on both Windows and Linux/MacOS systems provided you have:
Windows XP: Install .NET Framework 2.0 + AMD ATI Stream SDK/OpenCL enabled Nvidia drivers
Windows Vista/7: Install AMD ATI Stream SDK/OpenCL enabled Nvidia drivers
Linux: Install the Mono Framework + AMD ATI Stream SDK/OpenCL enabled Nvidia drivers
MacOS: Snow Leopard or higher is required for the OpenCL support. You will also need to install the Mono Framework.

One-stop River Valley sandwich bar
Pronouned 'Kroot' (the French word for 'crust'), this new 50-seater sandwich bar from Japanese-American chef Bouk Cebula (also behind Robertson Walk favourite Hummerstons and formerly head chef of PS Cafe) features a stylish retro vibe similar to all his projects, but there's a cafeteria/ hawker-style ordering concept – you order, pay for and collect your food at the counter.
As you might expect, there's a heavy emphasis on breads here, with six types on offer – baguette, ciabatta, sourdough, multi-grain, flour tortilla and pan de mie – which you can select along with hot fillings like ham and brie ($10), beef pastrami ($11) and Spanish pork BBQ ($11), as well as cold ones like pineapple shiso chicken ($7), spicy tofu ($7) or smoked salmon ($9). Several Hummerstons standards are also available here (albeit in smaller portions), including the maple granola ($8) and the H platter ($14) consisting of cured meat, cheese, cornichons, house salad and bread.

The trestle, mills and the makeshift dam are long gone, but the house on the hill still remains. According to an old Sanborn map, this trestle crossed the Bear River between Franklin Street and Charlevoix Ave. The dam was near Grove Street and the mills are now home to Bear River Park. The house on the hill above the dam is on Ione Street and, except for the windows, is remarkably unchanged.
If you've ever lived anywhere near a pulp mill you can probably smell the sulfur smoke emitting from the smokestacks just by looking at this picture. I hate to imagine what it was like before scrubbers and other emission controls. If you're going to move near one you better try to locate yourself up from the prevailing winds.
I grew up in Petoskey, and while these are all before my time, it's neat to see what things used to be like.

Residential Care/Assisted Living Administrator Course
Prepare for The NAB - http://ceusite.com/alc_register.php
Welcome to the Idaho Health Care Association
Residential Care/Assisted Living Administrator Course.
This new updated course is designed to assist future administrators of assisted living who will take the Idaho administrators licensing examination. Completing an approved course and passing the examination are required in order to receive an administrator's license in Idaho. More importantly, the course provides a comprehensive overview of the responsibilities of an assisted living administrator.
The cost of this course is $350 for members and $650 for non-members.
Members to receive the discounted price, please contact the IHCA office for the discount code.
NEW! Starting Jan. 2011 the Residential Care/Assisted Living Administrator Course is available only online. Please click the 'register online' link above to get started with the course.
New AL Admin Law will Require Experience after July 1st, 2011
Effective July 1, 2011, each applicant for an AL administrator license will be required to meet an experience requirement which is based on their education.
- If the applicant has a high school diploma or equivalent they must have 800 hours of on-site experience in a residential care facility under the supervision of a licensed administrator;
- If the applicant has an associate degree from an accredited college or university or equivalent they must have 400 hours of on-site experience in a residential care facility under the supervision of a licensed administrator;
- If the applicant has a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university they must have 200 hours of on-site experience in a residential care facility under the supervision of a licensed administrator.
These experience requirements are in addition to the other requirements such as completion of an approved course and passing the exam. If an applicant does not meet the experience requirement they may submit evidence satisfactory to the board that they do have adequate experience in other health care facilities. It is believed that this exception will be rarely granted by the board. If you do not have the required experience in an ALF, it is recommended that you obtain a license before July 1 (it can be a 6-8 week process).
NO REFUNDS will be issued if you purchase the course without checking to see if you meet the IBOL requirements listed here and below. Contact IBOL at 208-334-3233 for clarification on license requirements!

After this introduction, you will be asked to print out one module at a time which are attached as PDF documents. Some of the longer modules are broken up into several different PDFs. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader, you can download it from the Adobe website .
This course is a self study, online course. Throughout each module you will find major learning objectives that are intended for you to master. The information in the course should help you to meet the objective.
There is an opportunity for applicants to provide feedback to IHCA regarding both the usability and the content of this online curriculum. Please do so by clicking on the "Feedback" link located in the left sidebar of the course website.
In addition, a quiz is included at the end of each module or segment. The questions do not cover each facet of the module, but will give the learner an indication of his/her level of knowledge and understanding of the content. The quiz behind each module/segment must be passed by at least 80% before you can move ahead to the next module.
All of the questions come directly from this course or from the rules. Only some laws and rules are spelled out in this curriculum. When instructed to do so, you should follow the link to a specific section of the statutes or rules. It is a good idea to print out all of the laws and rules for future reference.
Course Completion Quiz
There is a comprehensive quiz at the end of this course. You must pass this by 80% as well. Upon successful completion of the Module 1 - 6 quizzes and the Course Completion quiz, you will be able to print a Certificate of Completion from IHCA.
A copy of the Certificate of Completion needs to be submitted to the Bureau of Occupational Licensure. Once all Bureau of Occupational Licensure requirements have been completed, you will then be allowed to take one of the licensure exams.
There are presently two exams to choose from, the Headmasters or the NAB exam.
You do NOT need to take both.
The Headmasters Exam
The Headmasters exam costs $100. The questions in this exam come directly from this curriculum and from the Idaho Statutes and Rules. The exam is 100 questions in length.
It is an online exam which can be taken any place and any time as agreed upon by an approved proctor and the applicant.
The passing score is 80%. It is anticipated that more than 75% of applicants, who complete this course and study the rules, will pass this exam.
The NAB Exam
The NAB has an examination fee of $260 and a processing fee of $75. Passing the NAB exam may help you obtain a license in another state in the future. This exam is 150 questions in length and covers all five domains, but does NOT include Idaho Rules and Regulations. The passing score is 70% and more than 50% of Idaho applicants fail this exam.
NAB sells a study guide for $125 to prepare for this exam. The study guide is not an approved "course" and is not a very thorough preparation for a lengthy exam, but is of some help. This exam can be taken any time between 9:00 am - 5:00 pm, but at only two locations in the state.
Prepare for The NAB - http://ceusite.com/alc_register.php
We encourage all students to take the Headmasters exam. Not only is the cost of the Headmasters exam more affordable than the NAB, its online format is very similar to the online format of the Residential Care Administrator course.
Technical Committee
A Technical Committee, consisting of experienced and successful administrators from a variety of assisted living facilities, was organized to help identify important information and learning activities for the five modules contained in this manual. Committee members are listed on the Acknowledgement page. In addition, they contributed content, reviewed the modules as they were developed, and made recommendations for change. The committee included:
- Robert Vande Merwe: Executive Director, IHCA
- Kathy Brink: Administrator, Ashley Manor
- Mike Evans: Human Resource Director, Ashley Manor
- Keith Fletcher: CEO, Ashley Manor
- Mark Maxfield: COO, The Cottages
- Sheila Beesley, RN: Quality Assurance Director, The Cottages
- Dorothy Witmer: Health Care Education and Training
Key Advice from the Technical Committee and Other Effective Administrators
Learners are strongly advised to be very familiar with the following:
- The survey process conducted by Health and Welfare, and the rules and regulations for assisted living facilities (RALF).
- The Board of Nursing rules as they apply to assisted living facilities (www2.state.id.us/ibn).
- The administrator's responsibilities: as an administrator of an assisted living facility you are fully responsible for all of the services provided and the quality of these services.
- Accounting principles and the mathematics required for computing the necessary calculations.
- In addition, the administrator should always make sure to work collaboratively with a licensed nurse and always report observable signs and symptoms to the appropriate person.
Laws and Rules
Now some information about "laws" and "rules."
A law is a statute. It starts as a bill and must pass both the House and the Senate and then be signed by the Governor. Statutes are generally shorter and more general than administrative rules.
Rules are developed by a department of the state government but must eventually be approved by the legislature.
All laws and rules in Idaho can be most easily be found at the website of the State of Idaho .
If seeking a rule, go to:
- State of Idaho
- Click "Government," "laws and rules," "administrative rules," "Idaho administrative code," "Health and Welfare, dept. of (16)," and then "16.03.22 Residential Care or Assisted Living Facilities in Idaho."
- You will reach: http://adm.idaho.gov/adminrules/rules/idapa16/0322.pdf .
- You can then open the PDF and print a section or the entire set of rules.
If seeking a law, go to:
- State of Idaho
- Click "Government," "laws and rules," "Idaho Statutes," "Title 39 Health and Safety," and then "Chapter 33 Idaho Residential Care or Assisted Living Act."
- You will reach Title 39 Health and Safety .
- You may select each section of the statute separately and print them individually.
The cost of this course is $350 for IHCA members and $650 for non-members.
Starting January 2011 the course will be available only online. To purchase this course you must use either a VISA or a MASTERCHARGE card. Please be sure that you can meet all of the new experience requirements described above before signing up for the course. NO REFUNDS can be given once you purchase the course. Contact IBOL for further clarification on the new requirements for AL Administrators at 208-334-3233.
Please call IHCA with any questions at 208-343-9735.

Supplemental Review Course for the Assisted Living Administrator
IHCA offers an additional in-person training to help you prepare for the Headmasters Licensing Exam. The Supplemental Review Course for the Assisted Living Administrator is a two-day classroom course that will help prepare prospective administrators to successfully pass the Headmasters exam. This course may NOT be taken in lieu of a required course for licensure. It is meant to be a supplement to the required course, which is a much more extensive class. It is recommended that candidates complete a course approved by the Idaho Bureau of Occupational Licenses prior to registering for this classroom course. Because there is no substitute for experience, we encourage new administrators to have work experience in assisted living before registering for this course.
This 2-day training is intended for individuals who have already completed the IHCA Assisted Living Administrator Course, but have either not passed the Headmasters exam or would like to have in-person guidance prior to taking the exam. To learn more about upcoming training dates, please view the Schedule of Events page by clicking here.

1995 OPEN FORUM Abstracts
Perez- Trepichio P. BS, RRT, Stoller J.K. MD. Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, Ohio.
Available studies suggest that over-ordering of arterial blood gases (ABGs) occurs commonly in Intensive Care Units and can be lessened by implementing guidelines for appropriate ABG sampling. To assess the appropriateness of current ABG sampling in our Medical Intensive Care Unit and as a possible basis for implementing future guidelines, we undertook this retrospective audit. Using AARC Clinical Practice Guidelines and published protocols for ABG sampling an algorithm was drafied and applied to 100 ABGs drawn from 13 randomly selected adult Medical Intensive Care Unit patients on mechanical ventilation (mean 7.7 ABGs/patient, range 5 to 12). Reasons for needing ICU care included respiratory failure (46% [n=6]), ARDS (23% [n=3]), pneumonia (15% [n=2]), COPD (8% [n=1]) and CHF (8% [n=1]). Indwelling arterial lines and continuous pulse oximetry were used in all patients. Conclusions regarding the appropriateness of sampling ABGs were made by a single observer (PP-T) based on retrospective review of medical records. Of the 100 ABGs reviewed, 56% did not satisfy appropriateness criteria according to the algorithm. Seventy five per cent of these 56 ABGs did not prompt any adjustment of the mechanical ventilator or of the inspired oxygen concentration. All 13 patients underwent at least one ABG sample that was not deemed indicated. Furthermore, in 2 patients (3 occurrences), the algorithm called for an ABG sample that was not obtained. The results of this preliminary retrospective audit suggest that: 1. As in other series, over-ordering of arterial blood gases occurs commonly in our Medical Intensive Care Unit, 2. Under-ordering of ABGs is also observed, but occurs less commonly, 3. Blood gases that were drawn inappropriately frequently failed to prompt any adjustment of therapy to improve oxygenation or ventilation, 4. Further research should assess features of patients and caregivers that accompany over-ordering and strategies to improve the allocation of ABG sampling in the intensive care unit.

A 39-year-old woman has given up rights to her newborn daughter, who was taken away by a Nebraska child worker because the woman had helped kill her toddler son 15 years ago.
The Lincoln Journal Star says Francisca Campbell delivered her daughter, Nevaeh, on July 23. The next day a state worker took away the child. The agency didn't cite any new danger posed by Campbell, but the worker said in an affidavit that Campbell shirked responsibility for her earlier crime.
Court records say Campbell was convicted under the name Francisca Pleines of conspiracy to commit child abuse resulting in death. She served 12 years in prison. Her boyfriend at the time struck the fatal blows in October 1998, a day after she kicked and punched her son.

just because its small doesnt mean is a virus cause I found a way to compress the file using WinRaR so that from 7GB you will get 13MB or a little more.
Mr. aTOMBBOMb, You sir, are a fucking idiot. Do you know what a torrent is? A kind way of compressing data. The installer for rpg maker vx is actually not a very large file. And no, this file is not a virus. I have installed it, used it, and it works quite well. Oh, and i've also scanned it with my virus software, along with nPortect, windows virus protection and a couple others along with a self made virus scanner. It's a clean file. +1 to TheWebster :)
Oh, one thing i did forget to add. The original torrent, contains a torrent which contains a zipped file. :)
I don't have any seeds for the second torrent.
This torrent gives you new download and its torrent too , download using the new torrent and you'll get the RPG VX on .zip extension

John Travolta Dragged Into Narconon Death Lawsuits
The star supports the Scientology-backed Narconon Arrowhead rehab, describing it as "the best."
John Travolta believes that Scientology can produce miracles; the rehab community largely disagrees. The actor is now being dragged into the controversy over several wrongful death lawsuits against Narconon Arrowhead—a rehab facility 90 miles south of Tulsa, Oklahoma that is "associated" with the Church of Scientology. Four patient deaths—including three since October 2011—have occurred there in recent years. Travolta and his wife recently have thrown a $2,500-a-head fundraising event for the facility. "Compared to other rehabs, we're the best," declared the star. A representative for the Church of Scientology didn't deny a connection with Narconon, but said that the Church doesn't control or manage the facility, and that Travolta's fundraising efforts were in no way related to the deaths: "There was nothing that the Church of Scientology did, or failed to do, which caused or contributed to the fatalities at Narconon Arrowhead." The families of the deceased are unconvinced: "If I could talk directly to John Travolta, I would tell him the program he is supporting is responsible for killing my daughter," says Connie Werninck, whose daughter Kaysie died at Narconon Arrowhead in 2009. Travolta's faith remains strong, though; he recently declared that performing Scientology "assists" helped heal the injuries of a car crash victim. Now he might have to hope the religion has an "assist" for warding off sex scandals: Doug Gotterba, Travolta's pilot from 1981-1987, claims that the pair had a six-year affair. He's now filing a lawsuit stating that the actor's reps threatened him when he went public. Travolta's attorney describes Gotterba's suit as "ridiculous."
