Medical costs and reduced work productivity associated with diabetes cost the U.S. $218 billion in 2007, researchers said.
The annual average cost per patient was $9,975 for diagnosed diabetes and $2,864 for undiagnosed disease, according to Timothy M. Dall of the Lewin Group in Falls Church, Va., and colleagues.
"The burden of diabetes to society is even higher when one considers intangible costs from reduced quality of life," the researchers wrote online in Health Affairs.
"The sobering statistics presented in this paper underscore the urgency to better understand the cost-mitigation potential of prevention and treatment strategies."
Dall and his colleagues, working with funding from Novo Nordisk, developed the estimates from a proprietary economic model based on medical literature, government statistics, and insurance claims data.
Results from the National Health Interview Survey, corrected with claims data, indicate that about one million Americans had type 1 diabetes and 16.5 million had type 2 diabetes in 2007.
The economic model indicated that the per-patient economic burden was $14,856 for type 1 diabetes and $9,677 for type 2 disease.
National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey findings indicate that some 57 million individuals had "prediabetes," and another 6.3 million Americans had diabetes but have not been formally diagnosed.
Their average costs were $443 for prediabetes (medical costs only) and $2,864 for undiagnosed diabetes, Dall and colleagues estimated.
Compared to those with no diagnosis, people with known diabetes accounted for vastly more use of various services, including outpatient care, emergency visits, and hospitalization.
For example, ambulatory visits for neurological symptoms were nearly eight times as common among among type 1 diabetics as among nondiabetics, and five times as common among those with type 2 diabetes.
Inpatient days for cardiovascular problems were increased more than six-fold for both types of diabetes, and emergency visits for such problems were about three times as common.
Undiagnosed diabetes had smaller but still detectable consequences for medical expenses. Compared with people with no history of diabetes, undiagnosed diabetics had 70% more outpatient visits and more than twice as many hospital inpatient days for cardiovascular complaints.
Overall, the bill for medical services associated with diabetes was $153 billion, according to Dall and colleagues -- about 7% of the total national healthcare expenditure.
The researchers put the loss of work productivity at $65 billion, including absenteeism, reduced productivity while at work, disability, and premature death.
Some of the data underlying the estimate came from National Health Interview Survey data on missed workdays and disability rates, reports in the literature, and CDC estimates of diabetes-related mortality.
Dall and colleagues noted that patients and their families bear much of the burden in the form of out-of-pocket expenses and reduced earnings -- not to mention the impaired quality of life and other intangibles.
But everyone else shares the costs as well, they argued.
"This diabetes burden represents a hidden 'tax' in the form of higher health insurance premiums and reduced disposable income," Dall and colleagues wrote.

Vegas, tomorrow.
Vegas does sound great! Sure beats my next possible destination. I'm passing a hell of a kidney stone. Any recommendations for homemade painkillers ?5 Replies
There was an explosion at the Boston Marathon. :( I literally just signed up for a local marathon this morning. Hope no one was seriously hurt - doesn't sound like it, but lots of injured. Sounds mostly like cuts due to broken glass.
Warning on the link here: their photo shows a fair amount of blood on the pavement.
why set a bomb off there ? what is the frigging pont ?
probally set it off there due to there being alot of runner's and spectator's..do the most damage possible. it's sad as hell ,but we are all screwed.also now there's 2 dead,and there saying the found 2 more device's..being dismangtled now..this stuff is crazy
Darn shame. When these sick extemist idiots begin targeting sporting events and gatherings, you just know crazy has reached new heights. I hope they are caught and punished. Maybe to watch them roll naked in broken glass is too much "eye for an eye" of a thought, but it does cross the mind...
You have to be really twisted and evil minded to place a bomb in a place filled with innocent people ...
Let's hope the people who planned, financed, supported, and carried out this attack are switfly and sternly brought to justice.
I live less than an hour away from Bahstun. my boss just told me about it, and this was just right before I was going to head home.
just to think - right up on my street, before I heard the news with officials saying people should stay home, I remember seeing kids at play when I was just driving by to get home. made me a bit wary of what's going on in the neighborhood.
I have these jerks of neighbors a block behind the house that like to blow things up (so, I'm watching out for that!), and there's a neighboring town that had explosive device issues by the main road just a week or so ago. how's anyone going to feel safe now?

Brown, Hallie Q.
|SUSAN PAUL VASHON -- September 19, 1838--November 27, 1912
Mrs. Susan Paul Vashon was born in Boston, Massachusetts, September, 19, 1838, and passed away in St. Louis, November 27, 1912.
Her father Elijah W. Smith was famed in ante-bellum days as a musical composer and cornetist and played in 1850 at Windsor Castle at the "Command of Queen Victoria."
Her mother, Anne Paul Smith, was a daughter of the Rev. Thomas Paul who was founder and pastor of the old Joy Street Church, Boston, in which the American Anti-Slavery Society found the only available refuge in which to organize. Mrs. Vashon lost her mother at an early age and was reared by her maternal grandmother, Katherine Paul. At the age of sixteen she graduated from Miss O'Mears' Seminary, Somerville, Mass., with valedictorian honor, and as the only colored girl in her class. Her grandmother having died she went to live with her father in Pittsburgh, Pa., where she was appointed teacher in the one colored school of that city.
Of that school Prof. George B. Vashon was principal, whose remarkable pedagogic career had already comprehended a four years' tenor at College Faustin, Port-au-Prince, Haiti, and one of three years at New York Central College, McGrawville, N. Y.
She was married to Prof. Vashon February 17, 1857, and seven children were born of the union. She was widowed October 5, 1878. Mrs. Vashon taught in the public schools of Washington, D. C., from 1872 until 1880, being principal of the Thaddeus Stevens School.
In the fall of 1882 she removed with her family to St. Louis, Missouri, where she resided until her death.
Her earlier environments gave to her character a puritanic cast, and all through her life she held close to the undeviating line.
She was a mother, profoundly so, and directed the lives of her children with the personal guidance and watchful care of tenderest love and wisest admonition.
She blended domestic excellence with a decided and active interest in all movements for the moral and social uplift of her people.
The home, the church, and the community were the work shops in which she wrought. The mother's club to guide young girls aright, the Book Lovers' club to develop literary taste, the Women's Federation to accomplish a loftier womanhood and the church were the fields in which she led and molded thought and proved herself to be one of the most useful and cultured women of her day. Possibly the most far-reaching of Mrs. Vashon's public services was the direction of several sanitary relief bazars that netted thousands of dollars for the care of sick and wounded soldiers of the Civil War, and for the housing of colored refugees at Pittsburgh, in the years 1864-65--the aftermath of the Rebellion.
Mrs. Vashon lived to a ripe old age and passed on fully ready for the Master's use.
We present her character as a model, believing it will shine brighter and brighter until the perfect day.

We've ranked the best games from ten to one, as well as listed a few honorable mentions for great titles that didn't quite make the top 10.
This isn't just an objective, score-based list, either; we've placed a lot emphasis on the fun-factor - as well as how the games moved their genres forward and contributed to the wider creative industry.
10. Resistance 2
Kick-starting our list is Insomniac's PS3-exclusive alternate history shooter, Resistance 2. While many might be quick to write this game off for falling back on occasionally generic gameplay, what pushes Resistance 2 into our best-of-the-best list is the sheer volume of features combined with the tremendous scope. It's also strikingly pretty and the story manages to hold together several threads of continuity with relative ease.
In addition to a very satisfying and compelling single-player story that follows the besotted Nathan Hale across war torn USA, an entirely separate campaign was created specifically for up to eight players in co-op. Additionally, the multiplayer modes have been radically fleshed out, with one mode even catering for up to 60 players in one map, which is handled brilliantly, through objectives-based combat at first, moving into one all-out frag-off by the end. Then there are the weapons… holy snow cones, Batman! Genius.

9. Metal Gear Solid 4
Solid Snake's finest hour since the PSX game that popularized the series, MGS4 takes Hideo Kojima's ageing hero through some of the strangest and most confronting scenarios in the history of the series. It also did it with a dedication to cinematic storytelling that shamed most games that tackled the action genre. Heck – the direction of the cutscenes shamed many films that came out that year, even.
The presentation aside, the fourth game in the series also brought with it some critical improvements and innovation to the formula. Most significantly, Snake's intelligent sneaking suit could now blend in with surfaces, adding a new dimension to the strategy. A fresh system of handling weapons, a refined aiming and movement system and a robust multiplayer mode that became an instant favorite with fans after something a little different than your average COD4 or Halo match.

8. Braid
Braid is one of the most thoughtfully conceived and elegant pieces of game design of 2008. What – at first glance – could be mistaken for a simple 2D platformer, is actually an ingenious puzzle game that never stands still: each world introduces a new gameplay twist that keeps puzzles fresh and interesting throughout. Braid's fundamental innovation is to build almost all its gameplay around time control. At a basic level, this means the player is able to rewind the world at any point, but it ties into much more than just undoing mistakes – it allows players to perform impossible feats through interacting with objects that are immune to time rewind. Of course, that's only the beginning. It's not long before other ideas are introduced, such as areas where the flow of time depends on the direction you're moving in, or the world where rewinding time results in a 'shadow' version of yourself that repeats your previous actions while you control your actual character, and so on.
You can really tell that Braid has been in the works for years – each puzzle presents a unique challenge and has obviously been thought through and iterated on very carefully. Braid is more than just mind-bending puzzles, however. It also frames the gameplay with bittersweet musings on love and life (really) and has a stunning hand-painted visual aesthetic.

7. LittleBigPlanet
Unless you've been living in small hole in the ground for the last couple years, you've likely seen the iconic Sack Boy floating and leaping around IGN's PS3 channel a whole lot. There's a good reason for this. Media Molecule's LittleBigPlanet is one of the best games ever released on the PS3 and certainly one of the best games of 2008.
Combining elements of pure platforming – jumping, running, flying, pushing and pulling – with rich editing and content creation tools, LBP has forged a new era of console-based user-made games. The implications are staggering; this is potentially a game that can last forever, with fresh levels being created in their thousands every day. With the promise of new items and content on the way, we can't see this one losing its steam for a long time to come.

World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc., or the WWE, is the largest professional wrestling promotion in the world. The WWE in general is an integrated media and entertainment company, but it is most well-known for wrestling. Professional wrestling is a form of sports entertainment combining athletics with theatrical performance. Prior to the 1980s, all wrestling promotions companies upheld the belief that professional wrestling was a legitimate competition to their audience. In the 1980s, WWE recognized itself as sports entertainment rather than a real sports competition. Now it is known by almost everyone that professional wrestling is all predetermined; everything from the storyline to who the champion is. This is not discussed in mainstream media to uphold the authenticity of the sport. Professional wrestling is a great spectacle that has a massive following all around the world – its biggest following being in America, Mexico, and Japan.
Within the storylines of professional wrestling, different pro wrestlers take on various characters. A "good guy" character is called a "babyface" or just "face" and a "bad guy" character is called a "heel". Typically, an audience will cheer on the babyface and the heel will elicit negative jeering from the crowd. Whether a wrestler is a babyface or a heel, the common goal is to get the audience riled up. The act of a wrestler keeping up his/her character is called "kayfabe". This term refers to any portrayal of staged events as real life, whether it be the fighting, rivalries, or romantic relationships within the professional wrestling world. Years ago, wrestling promotions would sustain kayfabe even outside the ring. But now the industry is less concerned with upholding the secret and kayfabe is only important during the actual shows.
Roderick James "Jess" McMahon and Toots Mondt formed the Capitol Wrestling Corporation (CWC) in 1952. A year later the CWC joined the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). In 1954, McMahon passed away and his son Vincent James McMahon took his place. Together Vincent J. McMahon and Mondt were very successful within the NWA. In 1963, J. McMahon and Mondt (and subsequently CWC) left the National Wrestling Alliance and also formed the World Wide Wrestling Federation (WWWF). CWC operated the WWWF and Mondt remained a part until he left CWC in the late '60s. Then in 1979, CWC renamed World Wide Wrestling Federation to the World Wrestling Federation (WWF).
Vincent J. McMahon's son, Vincent K. McMahon, started Titan Sports Inc. with his wife in 1979 in South Yatmouth, MA. Three years later, K. McMahon bought CWC from his father, thus taking control of WWF as well. WWF would go on tours, putting on elaborate shows that were quite costly. K. McMahon saved WWF from financial problems with the establishment of WrestleMania. WrestleMania was a wild success and is still known today as the "Super Bowl" of wrestling. In 1985, WWF produced Saturday Night's Main Event on NBC which was the first time professional wrestling was broadcast on network television since the 1950s.
In the early 1990s, WWF was hit with a slew of allegations including steroid use and sexual assault. Due to the negative press coverage WWF found itself in, many wrestlers left WWF for its competition, World Championship Wrestling (WCW). One of these such instances was Hulk Hogan, which was a big loss for WWF. To combat the loss, WWF started Monday Night Right in 1993. Monday Night Raw was very successful but was rivaled by WCW's Monday Nitro which began airing in 1995. The two programs aired at the same time and the ratings competition between the two shows began to be known as the Monday Night Wars. The Monday Night Wars lasted until mid-1996. A few years later in 1999, WWF made an initial public offering as a publicly traded company with the New York Stock Exchange. Then in 2001, WWF acquired the rights to its competition, WCW. And shortly after also purchased Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW). Now WWF was by far the largest professional wrestling promotion company in the world. WWF changed its name to World Wrestling Entertainment in 2002 and since then has been referred to as the WWE.
The WWE has a massive following of passionate fans. Whether you are a diehard WWE fan or have never even seen a WWE match, WWE events are for everyone.

Federico Higuaín came to the rescue with another penalty kick but the Columbus Crew's home woes continued with a 1-1 tie against the Houston Dynamo on Saturday evening at Crew Stadium.
Higuaín's penalty kick snapped a 294-minute home goalless streak the 69th minute, the Crew's first tally since another Higuaín penalty on April 27 vs. D.C. United.
The Dynamo (6-4-4) got a goal from Warren Creavalle on a 31st-minute counterattack, are 0-2-2 in the past four games and have not beaten the Crew in nine.
It was Higuaín's cheeky nutmeg to Matías Sánchez that started the sequence leading to the Crew's equalizer. Sánchez pushed the ball to Chad Barson, making his first MLS start, and the Homegrown rookie defender went down under Andrew Driver's challenge in the box.
OPTA Chalkboard: Crew unable to make possession in Dynamo half pay
Higuaín converted with a powerful shot, getting his fourth goal and third in four tries from the spot this season.
He then nearly put the Crew ahead in the 74th with a bending strike from 25 yards only to see his strik smack the right post. Justin Meram was alone in front of a wide-open goal, but scuffed the rebound over the bar.
Houston absorbed six quality chances by the Crew and just past the half hour mark struck back with a dash of speed and a clinical finish.
Dynamo right back Kofi Sarkodie sped past Justin Meram's slide tackle on a blazing run down the right before whipping a low cross to the center of the box. An unmarked Creavalle timed his run through the channel perfectly and one-timed the ball past goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum for his third goal of 2013.
The goal didn't have the momentum-changing effect the Dynamo hoped it would, though, as the Crew continued to find space and had three golden tries within four minutes near the end of the half.
First, Jairo Arrieta's volley from a seemingly impossible angle found itself rolling inside the far post, only for Tally Hall to scramble and push it away at the last moment.
Hall was again at the ready a few minutes later, pushing away Higuaín's blast and recovering in time to deny Arrieta's follow-up shot.
The Crew played for the first time since midfielder Eddie Gaven suffered a season-ending knee injury during Wednesday's Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup match.
In his absence, Arrieta returned from a two-game suspension and took his usual spot at forward, meaning Dominic Oduro dropped back into a wide midfield spot formerly occupied by Gaven.
The Dynamo had issues of their own with midfielders Brad Davis (United States) and Boniek Garcia (Honduras) away on international duty. Head coach Dominic Kinnear's side also missed the center back pairing of Bobby Boswell (suspension) and Jermaine Taylor (left shoulder injury).
Houston encountered more problems when former Crew defender Eric Brunner left in the 20th minute, with 2013 Supplemental Draft pick Anthony Arena coming on for his MLS debut. Brunner had cracked heads with the Crew's Dominic Oduro in the seventh minute.
Also, ex-Crew midfielder Adam Moffat was replaced just before halftime after cramping and midfielder Giles Barnes had to be replaced in the 85th minute after a possible leg injury.
Columbus are back in action almost immediately, traveling to face the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday. The Dynamo, however, face a long layoff, not playing again in MLS until they travel to Montreal on June 19. They do, however, face FC Dallas in the U.S. Open Cup on June 12.

The Vegetarian Option: A Vegetable-Heavy Italian Menu at Adelina's in Greenpoint
Dining out meat-free.
Today's Greenpoint, Brooklyn is a far cry from the heavily Polish enclave it was just a few years ago: as Williamsburg real estate gets gobbled up (or skyrockets in price), north Brooklynites are creeping ever farther northward, changing the character of a once-sleepy neighborhood. Still, the area's association with starchy, comforting Polish fare was still strong in my mind, so I was surprised on a recent visit to see so many different kinds of restaurants dotting the streets: Mediterranean, French, Thai.
Hunting for dinner, the spot that caught my eye was Adelina's Fraschetta Romana, a tiny Italian restaurant whose menu of hearty, vegetable-heavy dishes caught my eye when I walked by. My friends and I grabbed a table, ordered a bottle of wine, and set to work.
For starters, how about kale salad ($8), one of the stronger barometers for New York's endless supply of vegetable-savvy, Italian-ish restaurants. Adelina's version gave me a boost of confidence about the dishes still to come: tender ribbons of curly kale seasoned well with just enough bite, bathed in a bright lemony dressing featuring grated Grana Padano cheese. Crispy homemade breadcrumbs finished the salad, adding a welcome textural element.
Adelina's kitchen handled textures well in an appetizer of Arancini (3 for $6) as well, the golf ball-sized rice fritters had a thin, crispy shell that gave way to a creamy, well-seasoned interior. Fragrant, garlicky basil pesto filled some of the rice balls, while others had a tangle of chewy roasted mushrooms at their centers.
A plate of Eggplant and Ricotta Salata Penne ($11) made a worthy pasta option, with slightly al dente pasta dressed with soft vegetables and tangy cheese. The dish was ever so slightly underseasoned, but still satisfying.
Adelina's offers a handful of mostly vegetarian pizza fritta, or individual fried pizzas. A pizza with fresh ricotta, red onion, and oregano ($10, pictured at top) was crusty and well-seasoned, with flavorful toppings, but got a little greasy as it sat on the plate. I liked the idea of fried pizza, but couldn't help wishing I was eating a crispy, thin-crusted pizza hot out of the oven. Still, Adelina's gets some props for doing things a little differently.
The solid, comforting Italian food being served up at Adelina's isn't likely to be the most memorable food you'll ever eat, but its diverse, vegetarian-friendly menu offers plenty of affordable and appealing options good for sharing along with a bottle of wine.

Both APASS-north and APASS-south are working smoothly. We have two volunteers to help on the manual fix-up required for the astrometric solution for some frames - Gary Myers and Bill Goff. We can use one more volunteer! The requirements are a linux or MacOS computer that can run X-windows. Contact me directly if you are interested in helping out.
Currently, we've covered about 80% of the sky twice. Those fields will make it into Data Release 4, which will be available about Christmas. We've started the secondary fields (which are offset by one half of the field width from the primary fields, so that we have center-to-corner overlap) in those areas where we've finished the primary coverage. It will take another year or so to finish the secondary fields, at which time we will have four visits to every point in the sky.
We are in the initial planning stages for a refurbishment trip to CTIO to add a couple of features and do basic annual maintenance; that trip may take place in late January. In November, we submitted an NSF proposal to help pay for the final global solution for APASS, so that the end product will have the best possible astrometry and photometry. Wish us luck!
Next up: the first APASS journal paper. I hope to get that submitted in January.

Procedure for Computer Evidence Seizure
When a compromise of security or a unauthorized/illegal action associated with a computer is suspected, it is important that steps are taken to ensure the protection of the data within the computer and/or storage media.
The initial response to a computer security incident may be more important than later technical analysis of the computer system because of the actions taken by incident response team members. Actions taken by the incident response team impact subsequent laboratory examinations of the computer and/or media. Of most importance is that the first responder act appropriately.
In the event of a suspected computer incident, care must be taken to preserve evidence in its original state. While it may seem that simply viewing files on a system would not result in alteration of the original media, opening a file changes it. From a legal sense, it is no longer the original evidence and may be inadmissible in any subsequent legal or administrative proceedings.
The activities/procedures for securing a suspected computer incident scene include
Securing the scene
Shutting down the computer
Labeling the evidence
Documenting the evidence
Transporting the evidence
Providing chain-of-custody documentation
Securing the scene
The entire work area, office, or cubicle is a potential crime scene, not just the computer itself. The work area should be secured and protected to maintain the integrity of the scene and the storage media. While waiting for the official incident responder, no one should be allowed to touch the computer, to include shutting the computer down or exiting from any programs/files in use at the time or remove anything from the scene. All individuals at a scene should be known and briefly interviewed to determine their access to the computer and work area before asking them to leave.
Under no circumstances should anyone, with the exception of qualified computer forensics personnel, make any attempts to restore or recover information from a computer system. It is important to remember that the data present within the storage media is potential evidence and should be treated accordingly. Any attempts to retrieve data by unqualified individuals should be avoided as these attempts could either compromise the integrity of the files or result in the files being inadmissible in legal or administrative proceedings.
Procedure for previewing and taking BitStream Backup
Photograph the Scene
If the computer is ON then photograph the screen and note down the names of programs being run.
Do not switch off the computer. Simply pull the power cord from behind the back of the computer.
Open the computer and inspect the inside for unusual connections or configuration.
Disconnect the Power cables to all the storage hard drives
Switch on the suspect computer and run the CMOS Setup routine to ensure that the computer is set to boot from floppy drive. For entering into the CMOS Setup, most of the systems will flash the correct key on the screen as the system boots. If not, the following setup keys are common:
Compaq Computers F10
IBM Computers F1
Some PC Clones Del
OR Ctrl-Alt-Esc
OR Ctrl-Alt-Enter
Make sure that the computer is set the Boot Sequence from floppy drive. Exit the BIOS Setup, by saving the changes. Switch off the system.
Insert the BitStream Software Booting floppy into the floppy drive. Switch on the computer. Make sure system is booting with floppy.
Power off the computer and reconnect the disk drive power cables.
For Previewing
Remove the parallel port cable from the computer and connect the cable from the kit brought by the team.
Connect the other end of the cable to the PC or Notebook PC brought by the team which contains the analysis software.
Run the BitStream Software from the floppy, and make sure all the storage devices are shown and all are locked by default.
Run the server mode
Switch ON the Analysis Computer (PC bought by the team) and it as client.
Use the Analysis Software to see the content of the suspect disk.
For BitStream Copy
Connect the destination disk (bought by the team) to the free IDE port / connector and connect power cable to the destination HDD.
Turn ON the computer and allow the computer to boot from the floppy drive.
Run the BitStream Software from the floppy, and make sure all the storage devices are shown and all are locked by default.
Take the media hash of the suspect computer hard disk and note it down. This may take hours.
Unlock the destination disk
After taking the media hash value start the BitStream copying. This process will take long time to complete. Please ensure that the power will not be disturbed during this operation.
After copying is over, switch off the computer. Remove the destination disk connected to it.
Disconnect the suspect hard disk from the computer. Note down its make, model no, serial number and any noticeable things on the hard disk
Pack the suspect hard disk in a Packing Box, seal it using tapes and get it signed by the witnesses.
Detailed notes should be maintained during all aspects of the scene processing. This not only includes the usual who, what, where, when but overall observations of the scene. A evidence/property document should contain entries with a description of the items (model and serial number), any visible markings present on the item, the condition of the item, the manner it was marked for evidence and the location from within the scene it was seized. Every item of evidence has its own characteristics, but should be identified in a manner it can be easily identified at a later date. Items should be collected as found and documented.
Handling and Transportation
Diskettes have fragile magnetic media. If they are packed loosely and allowed to strike each other repeatedly during transit, the media could be damaged and the data lost.
Hard disks should not be subjected to shocks. When transporting a CPU, devices, or media, they should not be placed in a vehicle trunk or area where there will be drastic changes in temperature.

AppleScript Support for Growl
Table of Contents: General AppleScript Support
- About
- Usage
- Checking if Growl is Running
- Basics
- Sample AppleScript Notification
- Notifications Using Images
- Notes on File Paths
Table of Contents: Growl 1.3
Note Growl requires that everything that works with it registers, including AppleScript. Unregistered notifications will not be displayed. See below for an example of registration.
About AppleScript Support
AppleScript support is built into Growl; nothing special needs to be done to enable it.
Checking if Growl is running
We recommend checking to see if Growl is running. We highly recommend doing this. If you want to distribute your scripts, you should check if Growl is running before sending any events in order to avoid the "Choose Application" dialog.
Here is an example of how to check that Growl is running that will work with both Growl 1.3+, and Growl 1.2.2 and below:
tell application "System Events" set isRunning to ¬ count of (every process whose bundle identifier is "com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp") > 0 end tell
To send a Growl notification via AppleScript, you talk to GrowlHelperApp using two commands: register and notify. A script, like an application, must register itself (once, though multiple times is harmless) with Growl before sending any notifications. The full syntax of the register and notify commands can be viewed by opening Script Editor, choosing File → Open Dictionary, and selecting GrowlHelperApp from the list.
Sample AppleScript Notification
tell application "System Events" set isRunning to (count of (every process whose bundle identifier is "com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp")) > 0 end tell if isRunning then tell application id "com.Growl.GrowlHelperApp" -- Make a list of all the notification types -- that this script will ever send: set the allNotificationsList to ¬ {"Test Notification", "Another Test Notification"} -- Make a list of the notifications -- that will be enabled by default. -- Those not enabled by default can be enabled later -- in the 'Applications' tab of the Growl preferences. set the enabledNotificationsList to ¬ {"Test Notification"} -- Register our script with growl. -- You can optionally (as here) set a default icon -- for this script's notifications. register as application ¬ "Growl AppleScript Sample" all notifications allNotificationsList ¬ default notifications enabledNotificationsList ¬ icon of application "Script Editor" -- Send a Notification... notify with name ¬ "Test Notification" title ¬ "Test Notification" description ¬ "This is a test AppleScript notification." application name "Growl AppleScript Sample" notify with name ¬ "Another Test Notification" title ¬ "Another Test Notification :) " description ¬ "Alas — you won't see me until you enable me..." application name "Growl AppleScript Sample" end tell end if
Once you send the Registration command - your script will appear in the Applications tab of the Growl preferences.
Notifications Using Images
Growl's notify command supports four types of images for notification when using AppleScript:
Application Icons
notify with ¬ name "Some Notification" ¬ title "This is a Notification with an App Icon" ¬ description "We are using an Application Icon..." ¬ application name "Growl AppleScript Sample" ¬ icon of application "Script Editor.app"
Note that the ".app" at the end is optional.
File Icons
notify with name ¬ "Some Notification" title ¬ "This is a Notification with an File Icon" description ¬ "We are using a File's Icon..." ¬ application name "Growl AppleScript Sample" ¬ icon of file "file:///Users/someone/Growl"
See Notes on File Paths for details on how to specify the path to a file icon.
Image Files DEPRECATED AS OF Growl 2.0
Supported Types: BMP, GIF, ICNS, ICO, JPEG, JPEG 2000, PNG, PSD, TGA, TIFF
notify with ¬ name "Some Notification" ¬ title "This is a Notification with an Image File" ¬ description "We are using an Image File..." ¬ application name "Growl AppleScript Sample" ¬ image from location ¬ "file:///Users/someone/pictures/stopWatch.png"
Image Data
Supported Types: TIFF
When you are dealing with raw image data you should use the notify ... Image command.
For apps tend to return TIFF
on getPhotoFromAddressBookRoutine() tell application "Address Book" set icon_data to image of my card end tell return icon_data end getPhotoFromAddressBookRoutine set the TIFFdata to my getPhotoFromAddressBookRoutine() notify with ¬ name "Some Notification" ¬ title "This is a Notification with TIFF Image Data" ¬ description "We are using TIFF data..." ¬ application name "Growl AppleScript Sample" ¬ image the TIFFdata
If you're not sure which type you are dealing with then you can look in Script Editor's Event Log. The first four chars of the data will show the type:
Notes on File Paths
For the "notify ... image from location" and "notify ... icon of file" commands Growl accepts any of the following types as 'locations':
- Aliases - the default file reference type in AppleScript.
- Local file:// URLs (as text) - e.g. "file:///Applications/" — n.b. you must have three slashes after the colon — the third represents the root of the filesystem.
- Paths - e.g. "~/Pictures"
Changes in 1.3
Growl 1.3 introduces a few changes to AppleScript support. The most notable changes are as follows:
- Any existing AppleScript will need to be changed to account for GrowlHelperApp and Growl, and not just GrowlHelperApp. The best way to do this is documented earlier on this page, in the Checking if Growl is running section.
- PICT image data support has been removed. If you use PICT image data, then you will need to update your AppleScript in order to change this.
- Growl 1.3 adds a control suite. See the Growl Control Suite section for more details.
Changes in 2.0
Growl 2.0 deprecates the AppleScript syntax for supplying an image to growl via path by way of "image from location". This syntax previously failed to function since 1.3. If you attempt to use it you will now get a message logged to console about the deprecated api and your notification will have a generic icon on it. the alternative is to use image data to send your custom art to growl as shown in the image data example.
Growl Control Suite
Introduced in Growl 1.3, the Growl Control Suite section of the Growl AppleScript dictionary allows for controlling Growl in a few different ways. You can perform tasks via AppleScript for the following things:
- Closing and Opening the Rollup window.
- Closing all open notifications.
- Pausing and Resuming Growl.
- Enabling/Disabling Incoming Networking.
- Checking to see if Growl is paused.
- Checking to see if networking is enabled or disabled.
We have a sample script showing how to use each of these controls. This script will step through each of the functions listed in the Growl AppleScript dictionary. Follow these steps to see how the script functions:
- Download the Growl Control Example script.
- Open the script in AppleScript Editor.
- Click on the Events tab at the bottom of AppleScript Editor.
- Click the Run button in the toolbar.
- Watch what the script does as it steps through each example.
