Alkaline is a PHP content management system (CMS) for creative professionals and small businesses that is designed to be used alone or in conjunction with your own proprietary code. The application handles posts as well as images, and can manage both raster (GIF, JPEG, and PNG) and vector graphics (PDF, SVG). The software features customizable themes, extensions, and more. It can be used by novices (for example, drag-and-drop social network integration) and advanced users (for example, overriding the theme engine). It works with most Web server software, including Apache and Windows Server.
BorderFlow implements a general-purpose graph clustering algorithm. It maximizes the inner to outer flow ratio from the border of each cluster to the rest of the graph. The main advantage of the algorithm is that it does not need parametrization to compute results of high accuracy.
C++ command line parameters parser (CLPP) is a command line parameter parser with callback functions and, if necessary, type/semantic checking of values of input parameters. It uses only Boost C++ libraries and ISO C++. It is header-only (no need to build it) and very simple to use.
CaptureMock provides capture-replay mocking for Python, on the command line and with client-server communication. CaptureMock's approach is a so-called capture-replay approach. This means that when you 'record' your mock, CaptureMock will observe the interaction between your code and the subsystem you are mocking out, and record it in a text file in its own format. When you then run your test in 'replay mode', CaptureMock can play the role of the subsystem in question, and the real subsystem does not need to even be installed. You can then choose, each time you run your tests, whether you wish to have the real subsystems present and verify/recreate the captured mocks, or to rely on the mocks captured by a previous run. If you are running in 'replay mode' and CaptureMock does not receive the same calls as previously, it will fail the test, and suggest that you may want to recreate the mocks in record mode.
Configurator is a configuration file parser. It allows you to use arbitrary nesting of sections. The user can define an option's default value, necessity, and semantic check. It supports single-line and multi-line comments (in C++ style). It provides common checks of options and sections, like duplication, incorrection, etc. It uses only Boost C++ libraries and ISO C++. It is header-only (does not require building) and very easy to use.

- Everything you want in a screen protector Review by Dlo
Quality Design Value
This is the first screen protector that has supplied all of the properties that you want from a screen protector. It is easy to apply, easy to readjust, easy to remove air bubbles and fit it flawlessly, it is strong, it is clear and practically invisible, it cleans to a perfect shine with rubbing, it fits the device perfectly, it covers both sides of the device, it is smooth to the touch, it does not affect the performance of the touchscreen, it does not affect the display quality, it does not block the sensor that turns off the screen during calls (so annoying to have to deal with that), it does not interfere with phone cases, it is not sticky on the adhering side, it does not come off unless you purposefully peel it with the tape provided in the package, it is relatively inexpensive, and it still looks great after months of use.
This is a solid product and I am very satisfied.

BBC America's hit sci-fi show is back for another round of addictive action.
Every priest I knew was a kind and good man, and there was no gossip about them among my schoolmates, as there surely might have been. The nuns fill me with nothing but grateful memories. Yet as I was watching this film I heard a name that was familiar to me, and found that chilling. William E. Cousins was our bishop of the Diocese of Peoria from 1952 to 1958, and then after being made Archbishop of Milwaukee, was reportedly part of the cover-up of the first publicly known charge of sexual abuse against an American priest.
There's no reason to believe he was guilty of abuse himself, but this documentary argues that the entire hierarchy was fully aware of abusive priests and followed the church's ironclad global policy of secrecy.
That first public case involved the Rev. Lawrence Murphy, who was a priest at the St. John's School for the Deaf in Wisconsin. Between 1950 and 1974, he abused young students and enlisted older ones to help him. When a group of his victims, now grown, tried to inform the church about what had been done to them, they were ignored, told to forget about it or assured that it would be taken care of.
Three Milwaukee archbishops were informed of Murphy's behavior, and one of them was Cousins. I read in an article by Laurie Goodstein and David Callender in the New York Times: "Arthur Budzinski and Gary Smith, two more victims of Father Murphy, said in an interview last week that they remember seeing Archbishop Cousins yell, and Father Murphy staring at the floor. The deaf men and their advocates were told that Father Murphy, the school's director and top fund-raiser, was too valuable to be let go, so he would be given only administrative duties."
Murphy remained a priest until his death, and continued to receive assignments and have access to children.
What makes his particular case so painful is that his deaf victims found it difficult to communicate their protests. Police and states attorneys said it was the church's business. Lawsuits were dismissed. Many of the parents of the victims couldn't speak American Sign Language, and the deafness of the school's students made it commonplace for Murphy to visit them at night, moving unheard among the boys in their dormitory.
This film (the title is Latin for "my most grievous fault") is by Alex Gibney, the leading documentarian whose credits include "Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room." and won an Oscar for "Taxi to the Dark Side" (2007). It is calm and steady, founded largely on the testimony of Murphy's victims, who use ASL and whose words are spoken aloud by actors Ethan Hawke, Chris Cooper and John Slattery. He also talks to lawyers, newspaper reporters, and two Benedictine monks who have been instrumental in running institutions for rehabilitation of abusive priests.
How well that works is open to question. We learn of the Servants of the Paraclete, who treat wayward priests and whose founder once declared "there is no cure for pedophilia." He suggested to the Vatican than an island be purchased to isolate these priests from the general population. This purchase was negated, and many of them remain in service today. Given the grievousness of their sins, one wonders why the church continues to shelter them. Might it not be more appropriate to excommunicate them, and refer them to the attention of the civil authorities?
Note: Now in limited release, "Mea Maxima Culpa" will be shown on HBO in early 2013.

Gene-environment Initiative in Primary Open Angle Glaucoma
Louis Robert Pasquale, M.D.
Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology Harvard Medical School
Permanent vision loss from POAG is a condition of public health significance. Current evidence suggests that POAG is a polygenetic disease modified by environmental influences. We hypothesize that the identification and characterization of POAG susceptibility genes via a genome-wide association study (GWAS) will reveal significant environmental determinants that influence the disease process, as well as a better understanding of how gene-environment and gene-gene interactions contribute to this complex disease. For this study we have formulated a case-control study population from three cohorts: the Nurses Health Study (NHS); Health Professionals Follow-up Study (HPFS); and Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary (MEEI). The cohort consists of 1200 cases and 1200 controls with DNA. Members of the NHS and HPFS also have repeated environmental exposure data over a 16 to 24 year period. We will perform a single-stage GWAS and carry out the appropriate statistical analyses to find genetic markers with the strongest association with POAG. For the cuurent application, we will submit data on a myriad of environmental exposures (from members of NHS and HPFS) that could modify genetic predisposition for POAG to a central data repository. Thus this work will generate a valuable collection of genotype, phenotype and environment exposure data, allowing scientists to test numerous hypotheses regarding how genes and enviroment relate to incident POAG. We will collaborate with Dr. Michael Hauser at Duke University who is planning an admixture study to identify genetic loci associated with POAG among African Americans. We will seek to find concordance between genetic markers identified in his study and those identified in our stage I scan. Fine gene mapping and assessment of gene-gene and gene-environemnt interactions will be deferred until genetic markers associated with POAG are confirmed in a replication WGAS. Discovery of the various combinations of gene and environment interactions involved in POAG could lead to genotype-specific primary prevention strategies for this disease.

Daily Kos Takes Aim at Hannity, Shoots Self in Foot
Posted By Calvin Freiburger On December 1, 2009 @ 6:00 pm In NewsReal Blog | No Comments
Yesterday, the Daily Kos crowd (yes, that Daily Kos) claimed to have caught Sean Hannity in a blatant display of partisan hypocrisy. Declaring him "against hacking e-mails before he was for it," they posted video showing Hannity condemning the hackers who broke into Sarah Palin's personal email account a year ago, compared to a recent Hannity report on the hacked ClimateGate emails, in which Hannity focuses on the emails' content, rather than the illegal nature in which they were obtained.
Of course, they ignore the fact that personal information from the Palin emails was exploited to harass members of her family, and even the hacker who did it admitted:
I read though the emails… ALL OF THEM… before I posted, and what I concluded was anticlimactic, there was nothing there, nothing incriminating, nothing that would derail her campaign as I had hoped, all I saw was personal stuff, some clerical stuff from when she was governor…. And pictures of her family.
ClimateGate, on the other hand, is a matter of prominent, influential scientists conspiring to destroy documents sought under Freedom of Information Act requests, displaying a less-than-stellar commitment to the scientific method, and showing far less certainty in private than their public facades would indicate, all in the service of a purported environmental crisis advocated as a pretext to assume even greater government control over the private sector.
I don't know about you, but that strikes me as slightly more of a public interest than the Palin kids' cell phone numbers.
Kos's point is…what, exactly? If information enters the public sphere through illicit means, we should pretend it doesn't exist? That might be the New York Times' newly-discovered conviction, but that's just not gonna cut it. Nothing in Kos's brief snippet of "Hannity" indicates that Sean thinks the East Anglia hacker shouldn't be punished for his crime, and you don't have to be an advocate of email hacking to recognize the significance of the emails' contents (besides, it's not like we didn't already know that global warming is a bunch of hot air).
In a perfect world, personal information and communications would be secure. But in a perfect world, respected scientists wouldn't lie to us, either. However they were revealed, the ClimateGate emails crystallize several inconvenient truths about one of today's biggest issues. The real crime would be closing our eyes to the truth that's right in front of us.

We are trying our hand this season at "Treatment Free" Beekeeping. Treatment free beekeeping means just that – ZERO treatments, including no organic treatments. Its main tenets are 1) hardy, naturalized bees indigenous (or as closely indigenous as possible) to the area they are being raised in); reduced cell size (from 5.2 to as low as 4.8mm foundation, or no foundation, such as in top bar hives) and of course NO treatments. Does it work? You bet! Pioneered by well known and very successful beekeepers in Arizona, Dee Lusby and her late husband Ed, as well as rogue beekeeper Sam Comfort in upstate NY, "Anarchy Apiaries". Peter and I attended a wonderful workshop for beginner beekeepers last summer, put on by the Treatment Free Beekeeping Association of New England. We learned VAST amounts in a very very short time period, and are eagerly looking forward to learning much more at the 2011 conference. We also had some amazing food at the conference, including fresh, sun warmed honey comb, direct from the hive (AMBROSIA, I kid you not) and honey provided by BeeUntoOthers.com. We bought a gallon of the stuff. FAB.

2011 Treatment Free Beekeeping Conference!
2011 brings year 3 of the annual conference back to Leominster, Massachusetts with a few changes and some familiar faces. The Doyle Center had been the ideal setting for the last two years, but we have graduated to a larger venue, better kitchen facilities, and a welcoming atmosphere with the Leominster chapter of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, and their 14 acre property with large meeting hall for our use and plenty of space for the bees. Primitive camping is available 4 miles from the venue (15 tent limit)…be sure to purchase on the registration page to secure your spot.
Throughout the entire conference, we hire our friends and family (all with professional cooking experience) to cook the most delicious and nutritious food imaginable, 3 meals a day, on site. We trade with local farms and use fresh, locally grown produce (much of it Certified Organic), and although our attendees have diverse eating habits and dietary requirements, we haven't had anyone who we could not accommodate. Please let us know if you have special requirements.
A review of last year's conference can be found at http://www.KirkWebster.com (the review is titled "The Best Beekeeping Meeting I Ever Attended"). The Beginner Beekeeping Intensive was very popular last summer, and we will repeat it this year as an inexpensive crash course (or refresher) for those that want to get up to speed on the biology of the bee and basic beekeeping principles and practices in the least amount of time possible. Tag team instruction by Dean, Sam and Laurie (aka Ramona) for 2 days straight includes both lectures and demonstrations (hands on with the bees weather permitting). Tuesday and Wednesday, July 19 and 20.
NEW THIS YEAR!!! Instead of moving directly from the beginners program to the main conference as we did last year, we are hosting a day in between for all attendees (Thursday, July 21)….a "Picnic Table Science Fair" with selected presentations in the "20×20″ or PechaKucha format, where each presentation consists of 20 Powerpoint slides (or other visual aids), each one with a 20 second explanation….each presentation is just over 6.5 minutes. This allows for many of our attendees who have unique and interesting areas of knowledge (some beekeeping related, some not) to share with one another. There will also be a place for displays, projects, demonstrations, etc.
Al Carl (Massachusetts State Apiarist) has promised to bring by microscopes and equipment to teach tracheal mite dissections and nosema spore counts. We are certain there will be mead making, queen rearing, building equipment, and more. Most of our speakers will have arrived by Thursday and will be explaining and demonstrating their beekeeping field techniques with actual beekeeping equipment including queen rearing! Both top bar and Langstroth models will be addressed. Contact us if you would like to make a presentation! Thursday night is a special program by Matthew Halley, a bird researcher (doing the most extreme fieldwork imaginable) who is also a singer/songwriter and storyteller of the highest order. The Main Conference takes place Friday through Sunday (July 22-24).
As our theme this year is "Grow Your Own", the speakers will give special attention to what they have learned through their own adventures that can apply to all of us.
Confirmed speakers for 2011: Dee Lusby: Dee and her late husband Ed are the pioneers of treatment-free beekeeping. Since Ed's death in 2006, Dee has continued the management of their 700+ honey producing colonies in the Arizona desert where she raises her own queens, builds all her own equipment and produces her own small cell wax foundation. Dee owns the Organic Beekeepers list on Yahoo (which she maintains with a dial-up internet connection) where she shares a wealth of beekeeping information and history. Dee will also be demonstrating her methods for frame positioning and working the hive through the seasons at the Thursday "Picnic Table Science Fair" program. Kerstin Ebbersten: Retired from her position as the top honeybee scientist with the Swedish government, Kerstin's dissertation was on breeding honeybees for sustainability. We are looking forward to hearing her perspectives on breeding, and she is also excited to share information on epigenetics and honeybees. Kirk Webster: Known for his writings in ABJ and Bee Culture over the years, Kirk is a one of a kind. Kirk's perspective is that beekeeping and farming are inexorably linked, and one cannot be practiced without the other (and that both are incompatible with the pace modern technologies imposes upon us). Kirk runs a lean, self-sustaining operation in Vermont, where he produces honey, nucleus colonies and queens. Kirk pioneered the modern use of overwintering double nucs with summer queens in New England (as practiced by Kirk as well as Michael Palmer). You simply cannot argue with a beekeeper with low overhead and ae history of always running a profit, even in a poor year. Chris Baldwin: Chris is the only treatment free beekeeper that we know who is migratory (he travels between South Dakota, Texas, and California to the almonds!). As a producer of bees and honey, Chris will talk about the unique challenges migratory beekeeping presents to treatment free beekeeping practices, and the nuts and bolts of what makes his operation work. Chris came to the conference last year as an attendee and his impromptu talks were so well received that we convinced him to come back this year as a full-fledged speaker! Erik Osterlund: He's not only a commercial honey producer and breeder, but also is the editor of the Swedish beekeeping journal. Erik brings a European perspective on treatment free beekeeping to Leominster, and is the only beekeeper we know who transitioned to small cell in anticipation of varroa mites. Erik developed and breeds his own line of Elgon bees and has traveled extensively around the world in the pursuit of better beekeeping and better bees. Corwin Bell: A computer animator/filmmaker by trade, Corwin is a keen observer of honeybee behavior (in the wilds of Boulder, Colorado, and in top bar hives [TBH]), yet has remained refreshingly naïve in terms of what the "experts" "know" about honeybee behavior. His perspective offers a wealth of understanding, a view from a slightly different angle than is the norm. Corwin will share some footage of honeybee behavior and discuss what he sees in well adapted colonies. He also has organized an army of TBH beekeepers and swarm retrievers that is as well organized as any beehive, and he travels the world to witness beekeeping under every condition imaginable. Sam Comfort: Wherever Sam appears immediately becomes "The Comfort Zone". The best known (and largest) TBH beekeeper on the East Coast, Sam has an amazingly rich and diverse background in commercial beekeeping (both migratory and stationary) that is an unlikely match to his slight age, easygoing manner, and magnetic personality. His songs about bees, mites, bugs, and monkeys are entertaining for children to at least age 95. Matthew Halley: We met Matthew in Philly, and were spellbound by his storytelling…bird research had never seemed so exciting. The exotic locations, trials and tribulations are spellbinding enough, but the subjects and results of the research were (surprisingly) as interesting as bee research! Before we parted company, Matthew gave us a CD he had made (mostly songs about birds and bird research)…when we got home and listened to it, we knew we had to have him present, and to open up our study of nature (if only for an evening) a bit wider than the world of bees. Andrew Joslin: Our long-time friend Andrew is a recreational tree climber and all-around amazing guy, both in his appreciation of the intricacies of nature and his enthusiastic storytelling. Andrew will share some of his unique perspectives on the world we inhabit and share with other creatures, from the perspective of the highest treetops. Andrew is not a beekeeper, but has a foot in the hive already! Laurie Herboldsheimer and Dean Stiglitz: Co-authors of "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Beekeeping", beekeepers, conference organizers, and owners of Golden Rule Honey, Laurie and Dean will be reporting on their ongoing project of building a treatment-free operation in New England. This year, they'll focus on what has been working for them and their vision for the future. Beginner's Intensive – $100.00 (includes 6 meals) 9 am July 19 – 9 pm July 20 (Breakfast at 8:30 am) Picnic Table Science Fair – Free with registration for either Beginner's Intensive or Main Conference (includes 3 meals) 9 am July 21 (Breakfast 8:30 am) – 9 pm Main Conference – – $210 (includes 9 meals) 9 am July 22 – 7 pm July 24 (Breakfast 8:30 am) Registration details (including limited camping option) can be found at BeeUntoOthers.com.

Hello Guys,
can some explain what a Server Session is?
I've been reading about Rman channels in the following link
and it talks about how each rman channel corresponds to one Server Session and I have no idea what a server session is. If any one can explain what a server session is or point me towards some good links that expalin what a server session is, that would be great.
Thank You
An RMAN channel represents one stream of data to a device type and corresponds to one server session. Allocation of one or more RMAN channels is necessary to >execute most backup and recovery commands. As illustrated in Figure 5-1, each channel establishes a connection from the RMAN executable to a target or auxiliary >database instance by starting a server session on the instance. The server session performs the backup, restore, and recovery operations. Only one RMAN session >communicates with the allocated server sessions.Regards,
if there are two channels, then there are two server sessions established right?No this is not the case. Whenever a Server session is established two channels are allocated(which is by default) one is for connection and another is for communication. We can allocate n number of channels as well but the default is two.. Hope you read the docs number of times to understand.
does this mean that the parallelism is also dependent on the no. of channles allocated to the server session, and that, the no. of backup sets created will be dependent on the no. of channels you allocate to the server session?Configuring Channel Parallelism:

Hey guys, I got a complaint that the way these were set up, members from other bases (and non members) are able to vote... and voted just to see if they could.
All the bases with polls not in a members only area will have to be checked over by the base CO/XO & legion council to be sure the votes are legit members. So hopefully we'll have that posted pretty quickly after the poll expires. I want to say off hand that 4 of the 5 base elections are in public areas.
Sorry guys. We'll make sure all bases have private forums after this.

I want a GOOD spinner that will actually work. :/ I've heard that the foot shaped ones are the best, but I've also seen people having problems with the foot shaped spinner. I've heard that square is next in line, and then circle, but the circle one still looks the best-made out of all of them. :/ Any help from you guys on this would be absolutely fabulous, and thanks in advance!
(At this point I can do camels, sits, 1 foot, scratch, and combinations.)
Chosen Answer:
I prefer the second one. I think it's sturdy and well-balanced, plus it is well-made.
It is heavy and you need to store it in a plastic bag with the "Do Not Eat" packets from shoes and purses to protect it from dirt and dampness.
You should ask to try out someone else's before you buy. That's the best way to figure out what will work for you.

- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by some in the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
Supplement Amount WhyZinc 60 mg (plus 2 mg of copper, to prevent depletion) daily [3 stars]Zinc deficiency leads to reduced numbers of sperm and impotence in men. Taking zinc may correct this problem and improve sperm quality.Arginine 4 grams daily [2 stars]The amino acid arginine is needed to produce sperm. Research shows that several months of L-arginine supplementation increases sperm count, quality, and fertility.Asian Ginseng 4 grams daily [2 stars]One preliminary study found that men who took Asian ginseng had an improvement in sperm count and sperm motility.L-Carnitine 3 grams daily [2 stars]L-carnitine appears to be necessary for normal functioning of sperm cells. Supplementing with it may improve sperm motility.Maca 1,500 to 3,000 mg daily [2 stars]A small clinical trial found that healthy men who took dried maca powder had increased sperm counts and enhanced sperm motility.Selenium 100 mcg daily [2 stars]In a study of infertile men with reduced sperm motility, supplementing with selenium significantly increased sperm motility.Vitamin B12 1,500 mcg daily [2 stars]Vitamin B12 is needed to maintain fertility. Vitamin B12 injections have been shown to increase sperm counts. MenAcetyl-L-Carnitine Refer to label instructions [1 star]Acetylcarnitine may be a useful for treatment of male infertility caused by low quantities of immobile sperm.Coenzyme Q10 Refer to label instructions [1 star]CoQ10 is a nutrient used by the body to produce energy. While its exact role in the formation of sperm is unknown, even small amounts appear to increase sperm count and motility.SAMe Refer to label instructions [1 star]Preliminary research suggests that oral SAMe may also increase sperm activity in infertile men.Vitamin E Refer to label instructions [1 star]Vitamin E supplementation appears to enhance fertility, possibly by decreasing free-radical damage to sperm cells.
About This Condition
Infertility is defined by doctors as the failure of a couple to achieve pregnancy after a year of unprotected intercourse.
In men, infertility is usually associated with a decrease in the number, quality, or motility (power of movement) of sperm. There are multiple possible underlying causes for male infertility, some of which readily respond to natural medicine, while others do not. The specific cause of infertility should always be diagnosed by a physician before considering possible solutions.

Joint Press Release
12 Caribbean Countries Participating in a Workshop Showcasing Belizean Innovation: The Belize National Health Information System, Belize City, 17-19 August 2009
12 August 2009 | BELIZE CITY/BELIZE –
The workshop "Belize Health Information System: Lessons Learned to Strengthen National Health Information Systems in Barbados, Eastern Caribbean Countries, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago" will be held in Belize 17-19 August 2009. The workshop is being organized by the Belize and Eastern Caribbean Countries offices of the Pan American Health Organization/World Health Organization (PAHO/WHO) in collaboration with the Ministry of Health of Belize, the Health Metrics Network, and the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States. Its purpose is to share experiences and lessons learned from the design and implementation of the Belize Health Information System (BHIS) in order to strengthen partnerships and networking among participant countries.
According to the Minister of Health of Belize, the Hon. Pablo Marin, "The Government of Belize is proud to share our experience in realizing a truly national health information system. It is a remarkable achievement, but most importantly it is a tool that enables us to improve the quality and effectiveness of health care for all Belizeans. We invite you to learn from our experiences. It is our sincere hope that BHIS, which showcases Belizean innovation, will help contribute to the fight we are all waging in delivering improved and effective health care."
Dr. Beverley Barnett, the PAHO/WHO Representative in Belize believes that 'health information is at the heart of the public health system. In promoting and protecting the health of the population, it is critical to know and analyze the health situation, especially of vulnerable groups. Without a reliable health information system that is user-friendly and which provides quality information that can be used in various ways, it is difficult to judge if the health system is doing the right things, and doing them right. The BHIS, a "bottom-up", home-grown system, will go a long way in ensuring that health of the people of Belize continues to improve. The Pan American Health Organization is pleased to support this effort, and to facilitate sharing the Belize experience and the lessons learned with other countries."
The BHIS, which was inaugurated on 16 September 2008, is a fully integrated, comprehensive health information system intended to improve individual health outcomes and public health performance, and optimize resource utilization. According to Dr. Peter Allen, Chief Executive Officer of the Ministry of Health, "The measure of success is the positive outcomes for those who encounter our system. There will always be challenges since no system or tool is ever perfect - the focus must always remain on the benefits to patients and our people."
The BHIS allows population-based, health services, and records-based data to be made available to authorized users anywhere in the country almost as soon as they are entered in the system. It comprises a set of mostly interdependent modules surrounding the central Electronic Health Record and Admissions-Discharge-Transfer functions.
The system was financed initially through a health sector reform loan from the Inter-American Development Bank and the Caribbean Development Bank. PAHO/WHO and Accesstec of New Brunswick, Canada, provided technical cooperation.
In 2006, a grant was received from the Health Metrics Network (HMN) that first brought the Belize system to HMN's attention. In May 2008, Belize became the first country in the Americas to be granted priority technical support from HMN, as a "Wave One" country. With oversight from a multisectoral committee, the country has completed an assessment of its health information system (HIS) and is currently in the process of finalizing its HIS Strategic Plan, with continued HMN and PAHO/WHO technical cooperation. As part of the process, a 2-day stakeholder consultation was held in July 2009 to finalize Belize's HIS strategic plan for the next five years.

On The Cheap
8:15 PM EDT, November 3, 2012
We discovered something rather disturbing in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, which left millions of homes without power.
A lot of people are utterly unprepared to make coffee without electricity.
Perhaps you noticed the ridiculously long coffee lines at the few gas stations, convenience stores and supermarkets that were lucky enough to have power. Dunkin' Donuts was overrun. Wegmans was mobbed. The foundation of 7-Eleven shook beneath the stampede.
Even worse: imagine what would have happened if those places weren't open. This is a serious threat to our national security.
Now that the storm has passed and most have power restored, it's time to prepare for the next disaster. Here's On The Cheap's hurricane survival guide for coffee drinkers.
If you have a gas stove in your house, all you'll need is a pack of matches or a lighter. If your stove is electric and you're not a camper, you'll have to invest about $13 on a cheap one-burner camp stove and a small can of propane.
What? Some of you are probably thinking. You want me to invest $13?
Just do the math. If you lost power for four days and made a trip for two cups of coffee each morning, you've already spent more than that on coffee alone. Add the cost of gas, and you're probably ready to shop for a small camp stove.
Everything else you should already have if you normally brew your own in an electric coffee pot. We now turn to a tip from Mary Rose Johnston in Bethlehem that we shared a few weeks ago about how to make a delicious cup of coffee for just a nickel.
She puts a coffee filter in a tea strainer with a tablespoon of coffee grounds in the filter. Place the strainer over your coffee mug and slowly pour hot water into the strainer. Dark, delicious coffee drains right into your mug.
Use this tip during a power outage by heating a pot of water on your new camp stove.
We figured some of you would doubt that you can make a delicious cup of coffee without electricity. So we visited some friends at the Lehigh County Senior Center for a taste test. We even made a demonstration video you can check out at http://www.mcall.com/onthecheap.
"I had two cups of coffee today, but that was the best by far," said Margaret Cassio, who likes her coffee nice and strong.
"It was as good as Dunkin' Donuts," Dale Hallman said.
We asked Anna Solt if she was surprised to hear the coffee she was drinking was made without electricity.
"No," she said. "You just told us you made it outside with propane."
That's why we love our friends at the Senior Center. They never hold back.
We did some number-crunching in the On The Cheap lab and figure the hurricane survival kit would save you $383.40 over 20 years. Even better, you'll never be stuck in one of those long post-disaster coffee lines again.

Will Bloomberg's $50 Million Anti-Gun Push Rival the NRA?
By Rachel Brody |
Some in Congress want to limit the size of gun magazines. But they can only do so by threatening all of our God-given rights and by putting people in greater danger.
After all, if we are going to infringe upon the Second Amendment—in order to save just one life—then why not limit the First Amendment, too? Do we really need the "high capacity" news coverage that barrages our homes 24 hours a day and only encourages disaffected youth to act out what they see on television?
One could make a cogent argument that limiting such broadcasts would end copycat killings and save lives. However, is this really the road we want to travel, where our God-given rights are no longer considered inalienable?
[See a collection of political cartoons on gun control and gun rights.]
In regard to Second Amendment rights, those who are unfamiliar with guns simply don't understand how self-defense works. Real life is not like the latest action movie where the bad guys shoot their guns endlessly (and miss), but the good guys fire off one or two rounds and hit their targets.
When Matthew Murray entered the New Life Church in Colorado Springs, intent on killing hundreds of people, it was Jeanne Assam (one of the worshipers there) who fired off 10 rounds before Maury was critically injured enough to halt the attack and end his own life.
Good thing there was only one attacker. If Assam had used a reduced-capacity magazine or there were multiple attackers, she would have been out of luck. As would have those New Orleans residents who, in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, discharged more than two dozen rounds during one firefight, where they fended off a roving gang in the Algiers neighborhood.
[See a collection of editorial cartoons on the Newtown shooting.]
Self-defense expert Massad Ayoob talks about an Arkansas drunk who opened fire on an officer, who then responded by firing 29 shots. It was only the last bullet which finally killed the drunk and stopped him from shooting. Same with an Illinois criminal who was shot 33 times by the police before the druggie finally dropped and was unable to shoot any longer.
In the real world we live in, there are violent gangs who get high on drugs and are resistant to pain when they attack. Banning the tens of millions of "high capacity" magazines that are already in circulation won't keep them out of dangerous hands. But infringing the Second Amendment will threaten our safety and our other liberties, as well.

BREMEN — A prominent priest who has served in the Episcopal Diocese of Maine for more than a quarter-century has been charged with delivering drugs to two jail inmates.
Rev. Stephen Foote
The Rev. Stephen Foote, 70, of Bremen is accused of trafficking in prison contraband at the Two Bridges Regional Jail in Wiscasset, the Lincoln County Sheriff's Office said Wednesday.
Charged with attempted trafficking in prison contraband are inmates Joshua Theriault-Patten, 25, of Bremen and Adam Shawley, 27, of Newport.
All three were arrested Nov. 1 on charges that they trafficked in suboxone, a synthetic opiate that typically is used to ease symptoms of opiate withdrawal but can be abused.
Lincoln County Sheriff's Lt. Michael Murphy said Theriault-Patten had been a parishioner of Foote's in the past and the priest often visited him in jail -- sometimes simply visiting, sometimes bringing him suboxone. Shawley didn't know Foote, but he associated with Theriault-Patten in jail.
"The inmates in the jail arranged for it to be sent to Mr. Foote, and he took it from there," Murphy said. He said the inmates were using the drugs in jail, not distributing them.
The sheriff's office seized 10 suboxone strips, valued at about $500 in jail, Murphy said. He didn't have details about how the drugs got past jail security, and a jail administrator wouldn't discuss specifics, saying generally that different types of visits call for different levels of security.
Foote was released on unsecured bail after his arrest, while Theriault-Patten and Shawley remained in custody. Authorities said the arrests stemmed from a monthlong investigation by the sheriff's office, the jail and the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency.
The Episcopal Diocese of Maine in Portland released a statement Wednesday saying it was notified of Foote's arrest on the afternoon of Nov. 1. The statement said the Right Rev. Stephen T. Lane, the diocese's bishop, "receives this news with sadness and deep concern, and requests that Maine Episcopalians keep all parties in their prayers as we move through these difficult days."
In an interview Wednesday, Lane said, "This is a sad event, and quite unusual." A message left for Foote at his home was not returned. Foote's attorney, William Avantaggio of Newcastle, declined to comment.
Foote is charged with a Class C crime, punishable by as much as five years in jail and a $5,000 fine. The inmates are charged with Class D crimes.
Murphy said Foote admitted to trafficking drugs but thought he was doing Theriault-Patten a favor. "He said that he thought he was helping the person by doing this," Murphy said. "He knew what he was doing was wrong, but he thought he was helping him."
Foote, who has been serving St. Mark's Episcopal Church in Augusta, is now on administrative leave. Lane said Foote was archdeacon of the diocese -- a senior member of the bishop's staff -- from 1986 to 1990, and was dean of the Cathedral Church of St. Luke in Portland from 1990 to 2003.
Foote retired from that post in 2003, according to the bishop's office, and had been serving most recently as a transition priest-in-charge at St. Mark's in Augusta.
The Rev. Canon Nancy Platt of Augusta, a retired addiction counselor who was the longtime priest at St. Matthew's Episcopal Church in Hallowell, said Foote was a skilled preacher who kept his congregations in good order.
