Medicaid hikes health care usage & costs without better results
Published DateTo The Daily Sun,
Every adult should realize that few things are as expensive as "free" federal government programs. Nevertheless, special interest groups and politicians with an agenda are claiming that the Medicaid expansion program is "free" because the feds pay 100 percent for three years, then 90 percent until 2020. After that, of course, New Hampshire taxpayers will have to come up with at least $50 million annually.
Something isn't free when the federal government pays for it, the money still comes from taxpayers. Even if you don't pay taxes, government causes price inflation, which hurts everyone, and low returns for people depending on bond income.
If the people of N.H. wanted something like the Medicaid expansion, why haven't they demanded it from their N.H. legislators? (We could deliver it more inexpensively, tailored for N.H., and without federal government overhead and requirements.) But not even the Democrats, who now want this more expensive Medicaid expansion, passed such a program when they controlled the N.H. Legislature and the governorship. The Medicaid expansion program is just a way to bribe states into enacting expensive programs wanted by Washington and special interest groups but not by the citizens.
Every government program is particularly expensive for New Hampshire citizens as our state receives back from the federal government a smaller percent of our tax dollars than 46 other states. This means that New Hampshire taxpayers subsidize the taxpayers of 46 other states for each such program. (Thus N.H. Senators and Congressmen should oppose every program that states or citizens could do for themselves or is not essential.)
Medicaid provides insurance and higher costs, but not better medical outcomes. The Oregon Medicaid study shows that Medicaid increases costs and health care usage, but patient health care results overall are no better than mixed compared to no insurance. A Virginia Medicaid study shows cancer patients without insurance survive at a greater rate than those with Medicaid. Many doctors won't accept Medicaid patients; some would rather treat them for free!
Thankfully, Republicans in the N.H. Senate didn't approve the Medicaid Expansion requested by Governor Hassan, the Democrat-controlled N.H. House, and special interest groups. N.H. doesn't need to implement a costly federal version of a program that we could have implemented for ourselves had our legislators felt the need. And, N.H. certainly doesn't need to implement an expensive program that doesn't improve its citizens' medical results.

InvalidPlayListException - not accessible playlist: 0 - Updated
Can't for the life of me figure out why this is happening. Playlist file exists, looks correct from converting it back to the xml file.
BDLocator bdLocator = new BDLocator("bd://0.PLAYLIST:00000");
MediaLocator locator = new MediaLocator(bdLocator);
final Player thePlayer = Manager.createPlayer(locator); //Stack trace points here
org.blurau.media.InvalidPlayListException: not accessible playlist: 0

Is the surrounding code, the previous VFS looks like it was fine as there were no exceptions to be seen. Works in TMT but not on the PS3.
The code uses the same vfs.jar from the progressive example, also using the same certificates and keystore.store when signing the application. Network access, BUDA access are all functional.
The process to update follows the same pattern as the progressive example in:
[phase 1]
reset the vfs
restart title
[phase 2]
prepare for the vfs update (unzip the jar file)
update the vfs (with manifest.xml and manifest.sf)
restart title
[phase 3]
get the m2t file (from the vfs.jar)
start the progressive playlist
All files unzip properly and can be seen (via xletlogger) as existing.
The progressive example works on the PS3 and I am using the same vfs.jar, same certificates and even the same bdjo, id, index and movieobject.xml (all diffed and match)
Also, when doing a request for update then restarting the title, is it normal for the BUMF files given to the VFSManager to be renamed? Originally the files were Manifest.xml and Manifest.sf but once updated and restarted they become bumf.xml and bumf.sf. Is there any documentation on this process? From the javadocs of request updating nothing is mentioned.
Attempted to output some information to see if it differed from when it was ran on the emulator, it all seems to be the same (tested the toExternalForm of the locator, VFSManager state is STABLE). Also attempted to load directly via datasource:
DataSource data = Manager.createDataSource(new URL("bd://0.PLAYLIST:00000"));
thePlayer = Manager.createPlayer(data);
Here is the .mpl file converted back using the playlist tool http://pastie.org/private/fz0i9jbbsaf07hmqxtlhnw

3 Tips for a Successful Garage Sale
Putting together and hosting a garage sale can be a daunting task. That being said, it can also be fun and profitable when one lays out a fantastic plan. Here are three common sense tips to help you when planning a garage sale, courtesy of PennySaver's very own, resident "garage sale expert", Jim Sampson.
Be Sure to Advertise!
Once you've picked the date of your garage sale, you need to get the word out. By placing a classified online at PennySaverUSA.com and in print in the PennySaver, you'll be letting all of your closest neighbors and garage sale enthusiasts know about your upcoming garage sale. PennySaver USA will also send you free garage sale signs, or you can download them from the Garage Sale Resources on PennySaverUSA.com. Place the signs around your neighborhood to pull in passersby, and you've got the trifecta of advertising your garage sale. Remember, you need as many people to show up as possible otherwise you won't find new homes for your treasures.
Organize Well in Advance
Decide what you are going to sell. Look through your garage, closets, jewelry boxes, attic, basement, tool shed, way back in your kitchen cabinets . . . everywhere forgotten treasures may be hiding. Once you've got them corralled it's time to clean and spruce them up so they look their prettiest when shoppers are checking them over the day of your sale. When you've got all of your items, you can create an "Inventory List" so you know all of the items that you're hoping to sell, and you can keep track of what is sold throughout your garage sale.
Price Every Item
Putting little price stickers on your items is easy, it's deciding what to ask that can be challenging. The one thing to keep in mind is people shop at garage sales for BARGAINS. If you're looking for the actual value of your used item then selling it your garage sale is not the place. Also, be ready to haggle.
Remember, these three common sense tips will put you well on your way for a fun-filled day of meeting people and making some extra cash to boot!
Check out some of the current garage sale listings on PennySaverUSA.com.

INDIAN MOUNTAIN (Comanche County). Indian Mountain is five miles southwest of Gorman and three miles west of State Highway 679 in northwestern Comanche County (at 32°09' N, 98°44' W). With an elevation of 1,450 feet, its summit rises 150 feet above State Highway 679. The peak was named in the late nineteenth century; one of the last Indian fights in northwestern Comanche County occurred there.

Harlon Koff, Center for Comparative Immigration Studies
Abstract: Immigration has become one of the most prominent issues in world politics and one of the most studied phenomena in the social sciences. However, divergences exist between immigration as a political phenomenon and the response of the academic community to the issue. First, immigration issues are complex because they encompass questions related to almost every aspect of the host society. However, because of practical necessity and the recent focus in the social sciences on micro level analysis, migration research often addresses highly specific questions, rather than exploring the broader relationships among different arenas of immigrant integration. Second, native-born residents are usually interested in the impact of immigration on their immediate surroundings. However, academic research on migration focuses mainly on its national and international aspects and ignores comparative sub-national analysis. Koff's presentation attempts to address these disconnects by comparing integration politics and policies in two French cities (Lille and Toulouse) and two Italian cities (Florence and Bari), with special attention to immigrant integration in the arenas of politics, markets, housing, and crime. He will also suggest avenues for interdisciplinary dialogue in immigration research.

We've had a lot of leftover lasagna this week after my whole stint at making homemade pasta noodles. Don't get me wrong. It's delicious. But four nights of lasagna is enough lasagna.
So we took a break in between leftovers for some super tasty shrimp and bay scallop skewers.
I had a whole bunch of ideas for this recipe, but not quite what I wanted on hand.
No sweet chili paste that's already mixed in a bottle for this girl. So I made my own version. And it was pretty awesome.
Recipe for sweet and spicy shrimp and bay scallop skewers
- 24 medium shrimp
- 30 bay scallops
- 1/2 teaspoon Sriracha
- 1 teaspoon chili paste
- 1 teaspoon ginger paste
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl, minus the seafood. Toss the shrimp and scallops in the sauce. Reserve the rest.
Place 12 shrimp on each skewer and 15 bay scallops on each skewer. If using wooden ones, soak them in water before using them. Using a regular grill, or even a George Foreman, grill the seafood for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until cooked through and white.
When you flip the skewers, brush the remaining sauce on the scallops and shrimp.
Serve over brown rice and roasted broccoli.

Brazilians took to the streets again Thursday in several cities on a new day of mass nationwide protests, demanding better public services and bemoaning massive spending to stage the World Cup. More than one million people have pledged via social media networks to march in 80 cities across Brazil, as the two-week-old protest movement -- the biggest seen in the South American country in 20 years -- showed no sign of abating.

Audiocassette player required to access the taped interviews.
"Oral history is a unique way to learn about past events and experiences. It is a method which probes memory, evokes emotions and feelings which have been long dormant..."
Thus does Linda Wood describe the value of oral history in her introduction to
The project was funded with a grant from the Rhode Island Committee for the Humanities and co-sponsored by South Kingstown High School and the Rhode Island Historical Society. The students worked under the supervision of project co-directors Linda Wood and Judith Scott, as well as receiving input from humanities scholars: Professor Sharon Strom and Professor Emeritus William J. Metz of the University of Rhode Island History Department, and cultural journalist Pamela Wood of Kennebunkport, Maine.

What Did You Do in the War, Grandma? Oral History Project, Mss. Gr. 85, University of Rhode Island Special Collections.
In addition to the oral history tapes and transcripts generated by this project, there was also a publication produced entitled "What Did You Do in the War, Grandma?" This sixty page, illustrated, magazine format publication contains edited versions of twenty-six of the student papers which resulted from the interviews. Two copies of this publication are housed in the Special Collections Department's Rhode Island Collection.
After processing, the collection was arranged in five series as follows:
Open for research.
The collection was transferred by Linda P. Wood on September 24, 1990.
The collection was previously held by Linda P. Wood.
The collection was processed by Kevin J. Logan in 1990.
Research copies of the transcripts, releases, biographical sketches, and indexes were made by Special Collections staff during processing and were also added to the collection.

This series contains the original taped interviews with thirty-five Rhode island women who related their experiences in the years immediately preceding, during, and after World War II. There are forty-two cassette tapes in the series. Also included for some of the tapes are typed subject indexes which are keyed to the frame counter on a cassette recorder.
Subjects discussed in the interviews include the impact of World War II at home, the changing roles of women in the workplace brought on by the war, the liberating effect of the war on women, their reaction to societal attempts to limit those new found freedoms in the immediate post-war years, discrimination against racial and ethnic minorities (e.g., blacks and Japanese-Americans) on the home front, and the impact on the women and their families and friends of the loss of loved ones during the war.
The interview tapes and indexes are arranged alphabetically by the name of the interview subject.
This series contains the original transcripts of the taped interviews contained in Series I, as well as brief biographical sketches of the interview subjects prepared by them, and release forms signed by them. Twenty-six of the transcripts are typed and the remaining nine are handwritten. Unlike the tapes in Series I, there is no index for the transcripts.
The transcripts and related materials are arranged alphabetically by the name of the interview subject.
This series contains research copies of the original transcripts, releases, and biographical sketches contained in Series II.
The transcripts and related materials are arranged alphabetically by the name of the interview subject.
This series contains papers or "stories" written by seventeen South Kingstown High School ninth grade honors students about the women they interviewed. Each student received training in oral history interview techniques, did background reading on various aspects of World War II, and interviewed at least two of the thirty-five women.
Based on these interviews and on their background research, the students wrote papers or, as they were called in the project, "stories," about the women interviewed. The stories are a combination of the students' impressions and a paraphrase of the interviews. Twenty-six of the thirty-five "stories" were subsequently published "What Did You Do in the War Grandma?" the publication which resulted from the oral history project.
The papers or "stories" are arranged alphabetically by the name of the interview subject.
This series consists of ten VHS cassette tapes from 1989 and four DAT audiocassette tapes from 1997. Two of the VHS tapes are recordings of public forum events at the South Kingstown Public Library and at the John Hay Library of Brown University in late 1989. An additional VHS tape is of Dr. William Metz of the University of Rhode Island History Department giving a lecture on World War II and a fourth tape consists of Metz and Dr. Sharon Strom, also of the University of Rhode Island History Department, leading a discussion group with student interviewers . The remaining six VHS tapes are recordings of selected interviewees.
The DAT audiocassette tapes are masters of dubbings of three of the 1989 interviews. The fourth DAT tape is a recording of a reception held by Brown University in November of 1997 relating to the redesign of the

Back in 2009, Ian McCaig (then the CEO of Lastminute.com) was quoted as saying, 'the best marketing channel for us at the moment is in analytics.' At the time, that statement was rather bold. But now, in 2012, how perfectly this rings true with more and more businesses allocating time and spend to data and analytics strategies.
Almost every major travel business is now engaged with data and analytics on measured levels. Most have data practices across areas like revenue management, network planning and inventory management. However, it is often the case that these applications are not fully integrated into other parts of the business. For example, when it comes to things such as ancillary and customer data, which is not made available for revenue managers to help influence their pricing decisions.
Greg Land of IBM was quoted last month saying, "Today, travel companies should be utilising advanced analytics to better understand their customers' needs and preferences…enabling them to grow, retain and satisfy the increasing expectations of today's travellers." Despite this, only 20% of retail and marketing execs surveyed by Mashable.com for their recent infographic are actively engaging in big data. 38% of the same group surveyed had only heard the term in the last twelve months. One can bet a bottom dollar some of those surveyed were travel companies. Here's why:
Travel businesses often offer complex, multi-level service products with inventories that move around the globe (car hire or cruise are good examples). On top of this, almost all car-hire, hotels, airlines, cruise and OTAs also use dynamic pricing. This dictates that travel business models are sometimes harder to manage than normal retail, even with excellent solutions available on the market.
Despite this, EyeforTravel research shows that most travel businesses are hungry for better data and analytics in order to better forecast, predict and price. Some areas of interest include:

Things appeared to be going well for the likeable Ulsterman but then injury struck and left his tour dreams in tatters.
But instead of feeling sorry for himself, Ferris will look back with fond memories and then look forward with even greater anticipation.
"It's been absolutely fantastic and I've enjoyed every second that I've been here," said Ferris, who had been expected to challenge for a back row spot for the opening Test against the Springboks a week on Saturday.
"I've met some great friends and it's been great to be a part of such a lovely bunch of guys. Hopefully I'll get another opportunity to do that again in a few years time."
The injury itself only occurred earlier this week during a training session prior to Wednesday night's clash with the Sharks but Ferris has chosen to try and get over the disappointment as quickly as possible. For the 24-year-old, there is no point looking back with regret at something over which he as no control.
"It's probably a four-week injury and I'd be really fighting to get fit for maybe the last Test match," added Ferris.
"It's just one of these things. It was just training. I was doing a bit of tackling and I twisted my knee. A couple of guys fell on me and I heard a small pop on the inside of my knee. It was my MCL and a grade two tear.
"As my mother's always told me, there's a silver lining to every cloud. You just kick on and look forward to a big season next year."

The show's final original episode aired Tuesday night, garnering a 1.0 adults 18-49 rating, up from the previous week's series low of 0.8. The entire season averaged a 1.5 adults 18-49 rating, not much worse than some of NBC's single-camera scripted comedies. However, it was one of the least DVR'd shows on television, while its "cult" comedies like Community have a passionate fanbase and rise significantly in Live + 7 ratings.

Your School's Story on VideoWhen the president of the United States uses YouTube regularly to communicate, it's no longer a matter of it but when school districts should start putting more meetings, messages, and video content online. Once the mysterious purview of videographers, video production is now available to anyone with a cell phone.

Don't Wait -- Take ActionThere's a clarion call for a shake-up in public schools. Dramatic improvement in student learning is needed across the board in public schools today, not because most schools are inherently broken but because the demands of today's global economy are so much higher than what those schools were designed to deliver.
November 2010
Communicating Beyond the School CommunitySocial networking fans offer a loyal following that helps school leaders combat rumors or correct misinformation. Highly connected, at least online, social media fans and followers can serve as an early warning system, alerting school officials to smoldering issues before they gain too much momentum and spiral out of control.
September 2010
School Access for MoneyMassive teacher layoffs and budget cuts nationwide have spawned a feeding frenzy among marketers eager to build brand awareness among the very young. In the rush to get their wares in front of students and their families, advertisers dangle promises of major dollars. Cash-starved school officials are taking the bait.
August 2010
School Crisis ResponseFor school officials to have a fighting chance of telling their story when tragedy strikes, they must respond quickly. Student privacy rights, legal concerns, and the need to verify facts and information before communicating with others all hamstring educators. Ideally, the first statement should go out within 15 minutes.
June 2010
Cutting Communications Can Hurt The "soft stuff" some school leaders are so quick to cut from the budget comprises key components of organizational culture. Developing people and improving squishy processes like teamwork, project management, and employee communications represent mission-critical work. For a people-intensive business like education, the "soft stuff" really is the hard stuff.

School as a Reality ShowReality shows may make big money, but they may also refuse to pay for the things that involvement with their productions may require, such as security, staff overtime, and rentals. Before taking a bite out of the reality TV apple, here are some basic issues to consider.

How Schools Can Help the Media Tell Their StoriesGiving a reporter unfettered access to a struggling school probably isn't most administrators' notion of a great public relations idea. Yet that's exactly what the Indianapolis Public Schools agreed to do -- with stunning results. The portrait that's emerging has riveted and galvanized the community.
March 2010
Pros and Cons of School AdvertisingOften masked as charitable or community relations pursuits, school marketing initiatives are really about building brand loyalty at increasingly young ages. Before educators waste precious instructional time or dilute their own messages with advertising, they need to recognize that this is about business, not the public good.

This foundation is amazing for oily skin tones but it is not good enough coverage to me even with powder and concealer. I need full coverage. But that being said it is great for a summer day when you don't want full coverage but want to stay matte. Definitely need the matte powder over the top though. There isn't many colour options either. Still decent.

I don't hate it but I feel like it flakes off and doesn't really apply well. It matches my skin tone well enough and seems to have a good variety of colours.

I promised to myself i would only buy the NYX HD concealer (which is amazing, btw) but i came home with a bunch of products. I didn't even need another foundation but i got this one because i tought the name was really interesting and because the guy that sold me this foundation said a lot of good things about it (of course, he has to). I used this foundation the same day i bought it, it was winter so my skin was dryer than usual. Two hours after applying my makeup i was SOOOO oily. Normally, my skin gets oily after 6 hours. I couldn't believe it was the foundation, i thought my skin was going insane. So the next day i used another foundation, just to see if my skin was crazy or the foundation was an oil trigger. Guess what? My skin was perfectly normal! The foundation didn't work for me. I did try to use in other ocasion but, again, my skin got super oily. I gave this foundation to my mom, cause i thought maybe it could work for her, but it didn't. The only good thing i have to say about this product is that the packaging is great, really handy.

I don't want to give this a bad review based on formula. I'm in my 30's with normal to dry skin, & it doesn't give me any issues when used with a primer. I do like the coverage. The problem that I have is with the color range. There's no in between Ivory & the next darkest color, Nude. Ivory is far too light for me, yet Nude is far too dark. I'll have to try mixing them, I guess.

I too am surprised at some of the negative reviews on this product. One thing I must say is that a foundation's performance will depend heavily on how you apply it and how well the formula is suited for your skin type. This foundation is meant to be applied with a light hand and I find a dot and spread technique is best for this formula. I really only bought this foundation to spot conceal certain areas and it works great for that. Secondly, you must, I repeat, you MUST use a setting powder! This is the case with most foundations regardless of its claims. If you skip the setting powder then you will not maintain a matte finish. No foundation has the ability to halt your body's process of producing oil, it can only control it for a limited period of time. Thirdly, if you are finding this cakey and/or highlighting pores, lines, etc, then you are either applying way too much or your skin is simply too dry for this formulation. This foundation is clearly geared towards younger and/or oily skin types, therefore it will obviously not work well with skintypes outside of that. I am a MAC NC40 and I bought this in 06 Medium Beige and its a pretty decent match, maybe just a tad too dark. Either way this is very inexpensive therefore the risk is low in giving it a go. And once again, you only need a tiny amount of this to do the job of evening out your skin.

this is the first foundation i've had that was a bit too light for me. i like it though. i wouldnt say its full coverage though. you still need some concealer. its easy to apply, doesn't feel cakey unless you apply too much. i like it. i'll probably buy it again, unless i find a different foundation but most likely will stick to this one.

I love the size of the tube & that you're able to squeeze the product out. It was a great match to my complexion.. But holy cow. Literally an hour later, it looked like I took the grease from a pan & slathered it on my face. I do still use it for errand days. I use it more like a tinted moisturizer, the coverage isn't that great.

This product was an impulse buy that I thought I would regret but don't. I did want something that was a little cheaper than my usuals (Guerlain, Dior, Nars) to utilize on a day to day basis. I like that it has a bottle that is easy to extract product from. For this foundation, I just apply with my fingers, as it is the easiest method. I try to rub it in the skin really well, because it can look mask-y if I you dont.
The one thing about this foundation is that it defies the name. It does NOT stay matte, and can look a little flat lol. My T zone gets oily very easy. I make sure to put powder on took of it to combat the flatness and the oil. All in all for just a little over $7 it works for me!

I love how natural it feels on my face. I have oily skin on my t-zone and this foundation does not control oil at all. I like how it does not make my skin oilier but with the natural oil from my skin this foundation gives me a dewy finish.
It does not break me out it has a coverage of a medium to full cover but a texture of a tinted moisturizer. It is easy to remove. This foundation needs to be used along with a finishing powder because it does not have staying power and it will melt after couple of hours during the day in a hot humid weather like Singapore.
I love it for its easy application, removal and how natural it looks and feel on my skin!

The Miami University Libraries' collection of 336 McGuffey Readers range from Primer to Word List. Some readers lack title page, date of publication, or publishers. A catalog of the readers can be searched by year of publication and reader level.
An artist's book is a work of art that takes the form of a book. But what does that mean? And what counts as a book, anyway? Is it a bunch of pages that have been bound together, or is there more to it than that?
These are the kinds of questions that artists' books try to answer. They play with both the form and the function of books as objects, encouraging onlookers to question traditional conceptualizations of "books." They are usually handmade, often unique, and all different from one another. Because most artist's books are hand-made and only crafted in small, limited runs, they offer artists a special opportunity to create books that are intensely personal.
All of the books featured in this exhibit are part of Miami University's Walter Havighurst Special Collections. The materials on display reflect a concentrated effort to build a diverse, provocative collection that will challenge students to reconsider their notion of "books" while also paying tribute to the creativity and innovation of book artists across the globe.

Information for Parents
What is Cystic Fibrosis?
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited disease that causes glands throughout the body to make abnormally thick, sticky mucus. The most frequently affected organs include the lungs and pancreas. The intestines, liver, sweat glands and reproductive organs also may be affected.
About 30,000 people in the United States are affected with the disease, and about 1,000 babies are born with it each year. Cystic fibrosis is a complicated illness that requires clinical care by a physician or other health care professional. More information about cystic fibrosis can be found on the following sites.
Children's Hospital Child Health Library
UPMC Health A to Z
Infection Control
Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC's Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Center has established guidelines for controlling the spread of infection in clinic and in the hospital for the protection of our cystic fibrosis patients. Please review these guidelines at the link below:
Additional information about infection control is available through the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
For questions or more information, please contact Children's CF Center at 412-692-5630.
Quality Improvement Initiative
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF) is committed to providing every Cystic Fibrosis Foundation–accredited care center throughout the United States with the opportunity to improve the quality of care delivered to patients with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) and their families. A standardized training program is being offered to assist centers in looking at how their center can accelerate the rate of improvement in CF care. The Cystic Fibrosis Center at Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh of UPMC applied to and was accepted to be part of the 5th CFF Learning and Leadership Collaborative, and spent two days in 2007 learning with experts in quality improvement in Baltimore, MD.
Children's CF Center has developed a Quality Improvement (QI) Lead Team for our pediatric and adult programs. The team consists of representatives from each of the disciplines including administration, physicians, nurses, dietitians, respiratory therapists and social workers as well as three parents from the pediatric clinic and two patients from the adult clinic. The pediatric and adult teams meet every two weeks to discuss quality improvement initiatives.
The mission of the Center's QI Lead Team is to improve outcomes by assessing operations and developing goals and projects. We have chosen to focus our efforts on improving pulmonary function in our patients. Several specific projects are under way, including efforts to improve knowledge of airway clearance techniques, to improve adherence to regularly scheduled follow-up appointments, increased efforts to avoid exposure to secondhand tobacco smoke, and efforts to optimize nutritional status.

Tips from Our Parents
From M. Wiggins:
When my daughter was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis, my husband and I took a look at our home to figure out what we could do to help prevent the spread of germs and keep her healthy. Some things that we implemented are listed below:
- We placed antibacterial gel by the front door so that visitors could clean their hands before entering.
- Every day, we wipe down surfaces (for example, doorknobs, light switches, phones and other "frequently touched" areas) with antibacterial wipes. It only takes about five to 10 minutes to do the whole house. We do this more frequently if someone in our house is sick.
- We put antibacterial gel in our cars and always clean our hands with it when we leave a store and before coming home.
- We stopped using sponges, dish cloths and towels in the kitchen and switched to paper towels to dry hands and antibacterial wipes to clean counters, the high chair, etc.
When we were told our daughter had pseudomonas at the age of 7 months it made us take a look once again at what we could do differently around the house to protect her from this pesky bacterium. We realized we had bath toys that retained water even after we drained the tub (for example, squeeze toys). Anywhere water sits is a possible breeding ground for bacteria. We made sure to buy toys that can completely dry out between baths. We stopped using the "wipes warmer" we had, since that always stays wet. Obviously we cannot protect completely against these bacteria, but we feel better knowing we are taking precautions where we can.
These are just some of the things we do to help keep the germs and bacteria at bay. What are some of the things that you do?

NORTH TROY – Sen. Bobby Starr wants to return to the State House.
Starr, a democrat, has served Vermonters for 34 years, eight years in the senate and 26 years in the house of representatives. He said it seems every year has its challenging moments.Â
Last year, legislators were able to continue property tax relief for IROC. Starr said IROC is no different from the YMCA in Burlington with the exception that the YMCA has a permanent property tax exemption. Lawmakers are trying to get the same exemption for IROC.
Starr, who served on the agriculture committee this past year, played a big part in the Working Lands Bill, which puts forestry on the same level as agriculture as far as tax status and its importance to Vermont's culture. The bill has tax incentives to help companies in both industries.
Starr also played an important role on the appropriations committee to make sure there are ample funds so senior citizens can stay home and receive help from homecare providers. Starr convinced his fellow committee members to go along with his idea.
Starr was one of four lawmakers who didn't want to close Vermont Yankee because he strongly felt the discussion was out of lawmakers' purview. Lawmakers discussed the safety of the plant, but safety is out of the jurisdiction of the legislature.
Vermont Yankee has produced power for years at 4 to 4.5 cents per kilowatt, said Starr. He said there should have been some negotiations with the owners of Vermont Yankee to build some type of new generating facility. The grid there, said Starr, is set up to distribute power to other states.
Starr disagrees with the current state energy plan. "Renewables are all fine and good and we should get away from buying foreign oil to produce electric energy," said Starr. "At the same point and time, we could be using natural gas, biomass and hydro."
Vermont uses 80 to 85 percent green power and uses very little power produced by oil, said Starr. He called commercial wind towers a big problem because they have a visual impact in many towns. The host town might be happy about wind, said Starr, but the community involves many towns and power from the wind towers is going to southern New England.
Energy generated by methane digesters is very efficient and runs 95 to 98 percent of the time, Starr said. Methane digesters also cut down on the odor and produces money for the farms involved.Â
Starr said he doesn't support a single-payer healthcare system because lawmakers couldn't get their questions answered. Lawmakers still don't know who will be in or out, how much it will cost or who will pay the bill.
Act 250 could use some "minor tinkering," said Starr, who feels the big problem is the cost. Big companies have the resources to put into the permit process; local government could deal with smaller projects.Â
"Many of our visitors come here because they like our environmental situation here in Vermont," said Starr. "The locals have done a pretty good job taking care of things. Big Brother doesn't always know best even though they think they know best."
The agricultural community is facing problems because of feed costs due to the droughts elsewhere in the country. Milk prices not keeping up with feed costs is also a problem, Starr said.
Starr said he worked well across party lines over the years and never forgot where he came from.
Starr is married to Anita Cadieux; the couple has one adult son. Starr is a retired business person.Â

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Jason A. Smith and Joel email@example.com Area residents have only a few days left before the statewide cut-off date to make sure their voices will be heard in the 2008 presidential election. Voter registration is ongoing at several locations in Henry and Clayton counties. The deadline to register is Oct. 6. Frances Jackson, is the elections coordinator for Henry County, where a number of churches, individuals and civic groups are holding registration drives. She said residents in the area are likely to show up at the polls in far greater numbers than they did for the primary in July. "We had 113,000 registered voters in the county who were eligible for the primary," she said. "Since that time, we have registered nearly 5,000 more Henry County residents. Some have moved to the area recently, and others are new registrations altogether." Jackson said she expects voter turnout totals in Georgia to reach 85 for the election. The Henry elections office is preparing for this by sponsoring two registration drives Saturday. One will be held at Wolf Creek County Line Baptist Church, at 3352 Old Jackson Rd., in Locust Grove. The other will be at the Wal-Mart, at 1400 Hudson Bridge Rd., in Stockbridge. Annie Bright, director of the Clayton County Board of Elections, said Clayton has seen a similar surge in registered voters. Bright said that between the July 15 primary and Sept. 1, the county registered 2,722 new voters. As of Oct. 1, the total number of registered voters in the county is 141,458. "I don't have the statistics from 2004, but I can tell there has been a dramatic difference," said Bright. She said 5,532 people voted between Wednesday and Sept. 22, when the state opened early voting. In both counties, representatives from the major political parties have been actively engaged in efforts to promote the importance of registering to vote. Michael Burns, a volunteer for the Democratic Party in Henry County, who works as an engineer, said he and others are donating their free time to highlight the need to vote. "We're working with different charitable organizations, and through events like the Henry County Fair and the Chili Cook-off," said Burns. He said the current presidential campaign has generated "excitement" for prospective voters on both sides of the political aisle. One particular group Burns said he hopes to reach through the drives is people who were not old enough to vote in the last election. "When you make younger voters part of the process, by their very nature, they bring a certain amount of enthusiasm and joy that didn't exist [before]," he said. Joe Corrado, a political science professor at Clayton State University, also works as campus coordinator of the American Democracy Project, a nation-wide effort to engage more students in the democratic process. Despite a less-than-spectacular turnout in the Clayton County primary election, Corrado believes students -- primarily motivated by the Barack Obama campaign -- will play a critical, local role in the election. "People thought that, because of the problems in Iraq, that the youth vote was going to be large [in the 2004 election], but it really wasn't," said Corrado. "This year, the Obama campaign has energized youth. Because he's raised so much money, he has so many people on the ground." Corrado blamed local issues, such as poverty and foreclosures for making many people "feel like its not worth voting." He believes, however, that many people in Clayton will come out to support "the first African-American candidate that has a good chance to win. I hope the same people who are disaffected in the local politics will go out and vote," he said. Bill Herndon, chairman of the Republican Party of Henry County, said the group is working closely with the elections office at 66 Veterans Drive in McDonough, to spread the word about the need to vote. Herndon also noted efforts the county GOP is organizing through its headquarters, at 1733 Ga. Highway 42 N., in Stockbridge, as well as meetings of the party at various precincts. "We have open meetings where we make contact with residents in the area," he said. "If they're not registered, we get them registered, or provide them with the information they need and encourage them to vote." The GOP chairman said the need to vote must be emphasized constantly, and not just when an election is on the horizon. "Every election is important," said Herndon. "Voting is something we must not give up. That right is guaranteed to us, so that it may not ever wither and die." Nancy Rahnert, treasurer of the Clayton County Republican Party, believes the party has experienced a rebirth during the 2008 election season. She said the party has been hosting more grassroots events, such as informal meet-and-greets with Republican candidates, at which people can register to vote. "There has been a resurgence of Republicans getting out and being more involved," said Rahnert. "Our membership through the meetings has increased three times from what we used to have. More people have called requesting yard signs, volunteering to campaign for these candidates. Rahnert said the party is making efforts to bring more youths in Clayton County to the Republican Party, such as working to revive the Clayton State University chapter of the Young Republicans. To register to vote in Henry County, call (770) 288-6000. To register to vote in Clayton County, call (770) 477-3372.

Days away from the release of her new album Artpop, Lady Gaga has fired her longtime manager, Troy Carter, over "creative differences," the New York Post reports.
Troy has been managing Gaga since 2007, but as the star's fame has grown, insiders say she is no longer taking direction.
It's not the first member of the singer's team to leave – her longtime stylist Nicola Formichetti, who fashioned the infamous meat dress she wore to the 2010 MTV Music Video Awards, quit in August.
"She changes 12 times a day; it's insane," said Nicola who remains friends with the singer.
"She's going to be my BFF forever, but my ex-assistant Brandon [Maxwell] is heading [the Artpop album launch] project," Nicola told Women's Wear Daily.

can we get confirmation if this is a greyshirt or not?
can we get confirmation if this is a greyshirt or not?
im sure MB is cranking out an article right now that'll clarify the whole thing
the rivals article specifically states that this is a 2011 scholarship offer and not a greyshirt. i haven't seen anything else to confirm that though.
mario over on scout says the same thing. guessing he just took that info from rivals.
this is what i mean when i'm waiting for MB to come out with a new Lopa article!
When I talked to Lopa earlier, he asked that we not publish his story till after he announces for the local media tomorrow morning and we always respect a player's wishes.
What I can say is that they converted his greyshirt offer to an '11 offer on the trip and he loves Cal.

It's easy to look at Facebook, Instagram or someone's blog and conclude that their life is perfect. When a picture is posted, a lot of times you don't know exactly what someone felt or what they wanted to convey in that photo. You don't know if the person was happy, sad, anxious, scared, excited, or afraid. I didn't want to do a year-end post that painted a picture of a year without pain, struggle and growth because this year has been a true challenge for me. I've dealt with anxiety my whole life, at times it's been relatively inexistent, while other times it's been stronger. It came back with a vengeance this year. It was like nothing I've ever felt before. Panic attacks had become a part of my everyday life. Luckily, towards the second half of the year, I learned how to manage my anxiety and deal with my emotions. While dealing with my own challenges, other big life changes made me feel like my whole world was turning upside down. My parents moved out of the home I grew up in, the only place I've ever truly called "home". My brother got married, which is, of course, a joyous experience, but something totally new. I've always had a difficult time with change. I cried, felt tired, wanted to give up at times, but now I can say I've made it and I'm stronger than I was 12 months ago. That's enough of an accomplishment for me.
This year, I learned a lot about myself, solidified some lifelong friendships, accomplished some big milestones with my career, and I continued to work hard on my blog and participate in some pretty amazing brand collaborations. Some of my favorite projects this year were my H&M collaborations, hosting the kate spade new york opening at Easton, working with Hanes, shooting guest blog posts for Capital Style Magazine, assisting a local wardrobe stylist at a commercial shoot for Muscle & Fitness magazine, being featured in Lucky Magazine, working with some great local businesses as advertisers, and styling many outfits for my blog. I'm the luckiest girl on earth that I get to wake up everyday and do what I love and be with the person I love.
…oh and Beyonce released a surprise album. :)
This was a year I'll never forget and I'm looking forward to a strong start to 2014. I made a video highlighting some of my favorite moments. Happy New Year and I thank you for following along.

I love this post. I think you know you're truly strong if you can be open about your weaknesses. We're all struggling with something, sometimes less or more than others, but to me it seems like you're triumphing! You totally inspired me today! Thanks! :)
So proud of you!
Hi Lily! I love this post so much!! It is so honest and encouraging! I want to know your recommendations regarding ways to manage anxiety and deal with emotions (I know this is not supposed to be the focus of your blog). Believe it or not, this is my top 1 new year resolution I had just written down before reading your post.
As a reader who check your blog every single day and always look forward to your updates, I never left a comment. But I do want to leave a comment on the first day of 2014. I love your blog, your styles, and the positive energy you have conveyed in your posts.
I hope you have a fulfilling and happy new year.
Lily, I posted something similar today just before I read your post. (I linked to it from facebook after I posted mine.) Obviously your words really resonated with me and I had to comment! This post is beautiful and so are you! You said it all so well. Happy 2014, LS! I hope it brings even more good things. xo
It's growing pain. YOu are so young and have so much ahead of you. While you are not married and have kids, this is the best time to fortify your mind and head.
Congrats on a great 2013. I am sure your 2014 will be filled with growth and accomplishments as well.
BTW, you are like a young Kat Bosworth and do share some of her style trademarks. :-)

Introduce the zombie hordes to lead as you fight your way through the island of El Mirando.
Posted by INtense! on Feb 23rd, 2011
Dead Meets Lead is every bit and piece of what a challenging zombie-slaying action game should be. Enter the role of the 18th century commander who's on a mission to obliterate evil, by fighting your way through the island of El Mirando. A mystic plague has consumed the inhabitants of this island and you'll have to liberate their souls by sword, and travel deep into the island to find and stop the dark minds behind the cursed disease. You'll have to act, think and move fast if you want to survive the horrors of these wicked parts of the world. And do not hope for any rescue or help, it's all up to you and you alone!
Enjoy Dead Meets Lead and many other great games on Desura.
woaaahhhh..... so coool! That reminds me of Crimsonland back in the days... May get it in a bit.
briliant concept but that's all i can say, not enough gameplay to justify the gameplay. i think you should make developer commentaries etc before you can really start to see some sales.
Would be better if the main character was Native American. I just don't find 18th century aristocrat European military officer as badass as a Native American warrior killing and scalping zombies. Eh, but that's just my opinion.
and your username is tomahawk by accident only :P?
Pretty fun.
Good luck.

A prominent feature of the costumes of The King's Speech were the hats of the 1930's. I've collected a few photographs to give people who have not seen the film a feel for what to expect.
Hats of the London costume company that supplied the production.
The homburg below was rather nice, but I couldn't find a full picture.
Easy enough mistake to make as someone did before when a photo of the DoE came up a while back of him wearing an overcoat over his morning dress...
But it looks like he has a necktie on under that. It's a patterned tie, and his shirt has forward points, not a wing collar. (I'm not fluent in shirting terminology; is it called a 'turned down collar'?)
Actually, I got a look at that homburg in one of the shots and was unimpressed - very beat up, looked dirty. Certainly not something the heir to the throne would be wearing.The homburg below was rather nice, but I couldn't find a full picture.
Also, the brown hat that Lionel (Rush's character) was wearing looked like it might have been a modern Herbert Johnson Poet. Any thoughts on that? -M

My wife and I saw this movie earlier this week and really enjoyed it. It was full of good hats and different looks as I believe the styles were in a state of flux in the 1930's. By the way, the prince was not heir to the throne until after Edward VIII abdicated but was second in line at that time. Edward was the elder son and heir to the throne until he vacated. CitizenGenet, thanks for the shots and especially the costumer's hat selection.
"This gun was handcrafted to my specifications and I rarely draw it unless I mean to use it."
True, but by that scene with the homburg, the King had already died and Edward was on the throne. -M

« Another Obesity Drug? Not Likely. |
| Mexican Lemons To the Rescue »
Posted by Derek
After talking the other week about the problems that Takeda has had with their DPP-IV inhibitor for diabetes, it now appears that AstraZeneca and Bristol-Myers Squibb have made it through the same narrows with their own drug. Saxagliptin has met the FDA's latest guidelines for cardiovascular safety, which (you'd think) will remove the biggest potential barrier to approval. The advisory committee is meeting today, so we'll see how their vote goes.

Looks like Novo's compound -Liraglutide - might be in trouble though. Thyroid cancer and borderline CV data.
Saxagliptin looks good at this point, but who knows what the reviewers will say. Ad committee is actually Wednesday, with liraglutide meeting on Thursday.
2. Brian Orelli on March 31, 2009 7:59 PM writes...
I don't know. The FDA usually frowns on post-hoc analysis. (Ironic since that's how Avandia's heart problems were found). The advisory panel is actually tomorrow (4/1).

These new FDA rules have had a profound affect on the attractivness of diabetes as an indication for small spin out companies, its realy knocking the risk profile of the indication. I see the current drugs are continuing the pathway to development, but it will be interesting to see the effect it has on investors in the area, are big Pharma the only ones who are going to play in this field.

5. MedChemMan on April 1, 2009 11:57 AM writes...
Though both saxagliptin and vildagliptin belong to the cyanopyrrolidine class of compounds, saxagliptin has shown better efficacy over vildagliptin (5 mg vs. 50 mg?) in the clinical trails. Hence, it is the dose that makes saxagliptin more safe and well-tolerated. However, I suspect that both saxagliptin and vildagliptin have only moderate-to-low selectivity against DASH enzymes, DPP8 & DPP9.
6. Anonymous BMS Researcher on April 1, 2009 9:12 PM writes...
Today, 1 April 2009, the FDA Advisory Committee voted 10 to 2 that the CV risk data for saxagliptan were sufficient to rule out unacceptable cardiovascular risk relative to comparators in the program.

Both Novartis and Merck have DPP+Metformin Combos. What about Controlled Release Metformin+ Januvia/Galvus combos? My Endocrinologist says it would be helpful

Galvus + Metformin = Eucreas. Only in EU. Beware of skin tox. Among others.
