If you've been looking for the hospital bill that illustrates the difference between in-network and out-of-network costs — and the fight between hospitals and insurers that goes with it — we've found it.
That's what happened when reports of an $8,775 bill from Bayonne Medical Center to bandage a cut finger in the emergency room surfaced.
And while all parties involved admit the cost is out of line, how to fix it — and who is at fault for it — is not so easily agreed upon.
The bill, the result of an emergency room visit from a Bayonne man in 2013, has reignited calls for Trenton to clamp down on excessive "out-of network" ER costs that can result when patients show up to a hospital that's not in their health insurance company's network.
But the passionate response from health care stakeholders — with hospitals questioning whether insurers pay them a fair rate, and insurers contending some hospitals abuse out-of-network charges to shore up revenue — suggests it could be just as tough to find a consensus now as it was in 2010, when lawmakers tried and failed to regulate out-of-network hospital bills.
State Sen. Joseph F. Vitale (D-Woodbridge) said he's ready to try again.
Vitale said in the Bayonne case, insurer UnitedHealthcare "was slammed for thousands of dollars for taking care of what was essentially a booboo. And that is absurd."
He noted that under state law, a patient who gets emergency care at an out-of-network hospital is supposed to encounter the same billing terms as if that hospital were in-network. The insurance company, however, may have to pay hospital "charges" — prices that hospitals post but then routinely negotiate downward when they join an insurance company network.
And here's the problem with that: When insurers pay high out-of-network charges, those costs get baked into the health insurance premiums that everyone pays.
Squaring off
UnitedHealthcare, which does not have a network contract with Bayonne, paid the hospital a little more than $6,200, according to spokeswoman Mary McElrath-Jones. She said the balance was the patient's responsibility.
The patient has paid nothing on the bill to date, according to a spokesperson for CarePoint Health, the for-profit company that over the past six years has acquired and rescued from bankruptcy three Hudson County hospitals: Bayonne, Hoboken University Medical Center and Christ Hospital in Jersey City.
The spokesperson also said Bayonne hasn't waived the patient's balance and that the hospital negotiated a discount on this particular bill directly with the insurer.
"(Bayonne has) chosen to pursue an out-of-network strategy in New Jersey," McElrath-Jones said. "In contrast, most hospitals in the state have been innovating to remain efficient and competitive and have been partnering with insurers to try to improve quality and reduce costs. Examples abound in New Jersey and across the country of affordable care partnerships between hospitals and insurers."
The CarePoint spokesperson, however, fired right back.
"Insurance companies play a significant role in driving high charges at urban hospitals that serve the poorest and most needy people in our communities," he said.
He said 43.6 percent of the patients that Bayonne sees in its ER are either uninsured, on Medicaid or rely on state-funded charity care.
"Insurance companies' inadequate payments have been one of the major reasons that community hospitals like Bayonne were driven to the brink of closure," he said. "Hospitals are forced to set high rates for their medical treatment — this is their only tactic to try to negotiate with insurance companies for reasonable reimbursement rates."
Vitale, a veteran Trenton negotiator, is trying to take a middle ground.
"Look, I'm not an apologist for the insurance companies, but sometimes they don't reimburse a smaller hospital the way they'd reimburse a larger hospital," he said. "But the larger hospitals also have greater expenses, because they are teaching hospitals or have advanced equipment and more comprehensive facilities."
Vitale said he feels small community hospitals sometimes aren't reimbursed enough.
"But that doesn't justify charging insurance companies thousands of dollars for something that probably could have been taken care of in a doctor's office," he said.
Finding a solution
So how does this get fixed?
In 2010, the New Jersey Health Care Quality Institute convened weeks of meetings among health care stakeholders to forge a consensus on a bill to regulate out-of-network hospital bills — and the group is willing to do it again, said Linda Schwimmer, the organization's vice president.
She said one approach would be to create a database of actual claims paid for various hospital procedures in New Jersey and use that to create benchmark rates for ER services. The out-of-network ER rates could then be some multiple of that benchmarked rate, with disputed cases going to arbitration.
"The key thing is to get the stakeholders back together and the institute would be willing to convene that," Schwimmer said. "The really extreme examples (of ER bills) are bubbling up to the media, but that's not solving the issue — and it's very solvable."
The CarePoint spokesperson said Bayonne does participate in several insurer networks, including the state's largest, Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Empire Blue Cross, AmeriHealth, Emblem/GHI, MagnaCare, Health First, Amerigroup and Horizon NJ Health. He said Bayonne "continues to have meaningful discussions with those insurers it is not currently in network with."
Aetna spokeswoman Susan Millerick disagreed with that assessment. She said the company has two Hudson County hospitals in its network, Palisades Medical Center in North Bergen and Meadowlands Hospital and Medical Center in Secaucus. It's also currently negotiating with Jersey City Medical Center.
"The other hospitals in Hudson County actively terminated their agreements with us, choosing to go out of network and stay out of network," she said.
Kerry McKean Kelly, spokeswoman for the New Jersey Hospital Association, said sky-high hospital charges generate tremendous controversy, but she said only about 5 percent of patients are billed at full charges, since most have coverage with commercial insurers, Medicare or Medicaid, which negotiate lower prices with hospitals.
She noted a 2008 New Jersey law that caps hospital charges for insured patients with income below five times the federal poverty level, which is $117,750 for a family of four.
Kelly said hospital charges "evolved over time as hospitals attempted to recover some revenue when key customers like Medicare or Medicaid paid hospitals at rates that fall below the actual cost of care."
If you think the Affordable Care Act was supposed to solve all these problems, think again.
Kelly said it's become tougher for hospitals to recover that lost revenue as the Affordable Care Act "puts the squeeze on hospital payments for Medicare and Medicaid and insurance companies try to negotiate further rate reductions with hospitals."
More than just a bill
Suzanne Ianni, chief executive of the Hospital Alliance of New Jersey, whose members are safety-net hospitals serving the state's low-income population, said the issue is about so much more than just one bill.
"We all can agree that $9,000 for a Band-Aid is a headline grabber and seems illogical and unfair," she said. "But there is much more to this story.
"Some hospitals are able to negotiate satisfactory rates with insurers and establish contracts with them. Others, often those that treat a large portion of Medicaid and Charity Care, find themselves at a disadvantage when negotiating rates with insurers.
"If we cap the rates that hospitals can receive from out of network insurers, we then tie the hands of the hospitals when trying to negotiate fair rates. Why would the insurer work to negotiate when they know they'd only be responsible for a capped rate if a deal isn't reached?" ?Joel Cantor, director of the Rutgers Center for State Health Policy, said the current state of affairs puts patients in the middle and increases costs to insurers that cover out-of-network benefits."
"(Health care may be) the only product where you don't know its price until after you have made the purchase," he said. "This leaves patients at tremendous financial risk."
Cantor said the wave of hospital consolidations across the state and country may not necessarily help.
"(It) strengthens the bargaining position of hospitals relative to the private payers, but at the same time puts upward pressure on health care costs," he said.
"Hospital charges that appear to be unreasonably high will bring pressure for the Legislature to regulate fees."
That, of course, is easier than it sounds.
Just ask Vitale.
He said he will hold hearings and introduce comprehensive out-of-network legislation this fall.
Of course, that took place in 2010 to no avail.
"(The legislation) fell apart because (lawmakers) at the end of the day met with too much resistance from too many special interests," he said. "Some of those groups just got greedy and no legislator can work in good faith with people or organizations who are only concerned about maximizing their profits at the expense of the people who pay the bills."

Harper's Weekly (3 November 1860): 692. Image scan and text by Philip V. Allingham. [You may use this image without prior permission for any scholarly or educational purpose as long as you (1) credit the person who scanned the image and (2) link your document to this URL in a web document or cite it in a print one.].
The picture, based on a picture taken at Mathew B. Brady's Daguerreotype National Photographic Portrait Gallery at Broadway and Fulton Streets in New York City (opened in 1844), Prince's suite include the following, left to right: William Brodie, Major Teasdale, Dr. Ackland, Captain Grey, Charles G. L. Eliot, Lord Lyons, Earl St. Germans, Hinchbrook, H. R. H. the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Newcastle, General Bruce, G. D. Engleheart, G. F. Jenner, and Frederick Warre.
The American "journal of civilization," Harper's Weekly, was never more Anglophilic when it offered readers coverage of the royal visit in August through November, 1860. Towards the end of Prince Edward's visit to the New England states and the American capital, the journal printed a large-scale illustration depicting the Prince of Wales (centre) and his thirteen-member suite of political and diplomatic advisers (3 November 1860). Not yet nineteen, the Prince charmed New Englanders as he had his subjects to the north, for whom he opened the Victoria Bridge in Montreal and laid a cornerstone for the Dominion's Houses of Parliament in Ottawa.
Despite his popularity with American crowds as he visited President James Buchanan in Washington, D. C., and visited the tomb of President George Washington at Mount Vernon, Harper's ran a satirical panel in the same issue entitled (in Gothic letters that may obliquely allude to his German ancestry) "Anticipated Scenes in the Life of a Prince who was very fond of Dancing" (p. 704):
Left to right: He dances to his Coronation. Takes the Coronation Oath, thus. Thus he opens Parliament Receives a Foreign Ambassador. Seeks a Matrimonial Alliance. [Click on thumbnails for larger images.]
His Statue (with fiddle and bow in ballet skirt.
The American journal was only partly prophetic, for, although Edward, Prince of Wales, was shortly to become engaged to Princess Alexandra of Denmark (on 9 September 1862), and to marry her on 10 March 1863, he did not assume the British throne until his mother's death in 1901, although during his mother's widowhood, Prince Edward did represent Queen Victoria at public ceremonies and gatherings.

Tablet PCs were the main attractions at this year's CES and MWC. Though smartphone and computer vendors introduced their latest tablet PC at the exhibitions, Apple, the company that brought tablet PCs to the forefront, did not unveil the next generation iPad until March 2.
The iPad 2 made improvements in industrial design, hardware and operating system, and is also priced competitively like its predecessor. Sales for the iPad and iPad 2 are projected to combine for more than 35 million units in 2011.
iPad users in 2010 were mainly business professionals, which was a small market. Since the business segment is expected to see more competition from other tablet PC such as RIM's PlayBook, the iPad 2 aims to open up the consumer segment. At the launch press conference, Apple focused on the iPad's multimedia entertainment capabilities such as iMovies. The iPad 2 also includes outer covers to create color differentiations similar to that of the iPod music player.
Sales of the iPad 2 in the consumer market will determine whether Apple will ship more than 40 million tablet PC in 2011 and grab a 70% share of the global market.

Video: Michael Douglas Offers To Share Emmy With Matt Damon: "You Want The Bottom Or The Top?"
Michael Douglas's Emmy victory last night was one of many expected wins for HBO's Behind The Candelabra, but it was his colorful speech that left people talking (and laughing)!
Douglas wanted to share his award with co-star Matt Damon, who played the long-term lover of Douglas's Liberace. See what he had to say!
"This was a two-hander, and Matt, you're only as good as your other hand....You were magnificent, and the only reason I'm standing here is because of you. So, you really deserve half of this. Do you want the bottom or the top?"
What did you think of Douglas's speech, Instincters?
Image Source
I am gay, and I loved the jokes. Remember, how our fight got started. We put ourselves out their to be seen at Stonewall, and other places. By making thoughts,comments, jokes, etc... It shows nothing is wrong with who we are. Mr. Douglas is also saying that in his speech, with humor, and love. Bravo!
Mr. Paul Hanley, lighten up! Learn to laugh at yourself. There is a time and place for everything. This movie was about a flamboyant great artist, that was a gay man, and his lover. It seems to me, some gay humor was appropriate for this moment. We are out, we are queer, ENJOY IT!

Managing Diabetes During Pregnancy
Florence Brown, M.D., Co-Director, Joslin-Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Diabetes and Pregnancy Program; Instructor in Medicine, Harvard Medical School;
Tamara Takoudes, M.D., Co-Director, Joslin-Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Diabetes and Pregnancy Program; Instructor in Medicine, Harvard Medical School
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 1.85 million women of reproductive age have diabetes, and about 500,000 of them do not know it.
As these numbers continue to rise, it is increasingly important for women with diabetes to achieve normal blood glucose levels before they become pregnant because if women have poorly controlled diabetes going into a pregnancy, they are at much higher risk for serious fetal complications.
Changing hormones in the body during pregnancy cause blood glucose levels to rise, and high blood glucose levels in early pregnancy (within the first four to six weeks) can result in a 30 to 40 percent chance of having a baby with a birth defect compared to a 2 percent risk in women whose diabetes is in excellent control.
Women with type 1 diabetes or type 2 diabetes are also at higher risk for:
- Large birth weight babies, resulting in more Cesarean deliveries and increased complications during delivery
- Premature births or fetal death
- Pre-eclampsia: a dangerous surge in blood pressure associated with protein in the urine
- Diabetic retinopathy: damage to the retina caused by high glucose levels
- Nephropathy: diabetic kidney disease
- Severe hypoglycemia: episodes of low blood glucose that can result in confusion or unconsciousness
Ensuring a healthy pregnancyThe good news is that women with uncomplicated diabetes who keep their blood glucose levels in a normal range before and during pregnancy have about the same chance of having a successful pregnancy as women without diabetes.
The Joslin-Beth Israel Deaconess Pregnancy Program recommends the following blood glucose goals and medical assessments before pregnancy:
- Fasting and pre-meal blood glucose: 80-110 mg/dl
- Blood glucose one hour after meal: 100-155 mg/dl
- A1C, a blood test that measures average blood glucose over two to three months: less than 7 percent
- Review of diabetes and obstetrical history
- Eye evaluations to screen for and discuss risks of diabetic retinopathy
- Renal, thyroid, gynecological and cardiac evaluations
Once pregnant, women should monitor their blood glucose levels four times a day (before breakfast and one hour after every meal.) Fasting and pre-meal glucose levels should be between 60 and 99 mg/dl, and one-hour post-meal readings should be between 100 and 129 mg/dl.
Other recommendations to ensure a successful pregnancy: (sidebar)
- See your diabetes provider every one to four weeks
- Have your A1C level checked every four to eight weeks
- Meet with a certified diabetes educator and registered dietitian, as needed
- Follow USDA diet guidelines, including folic acid supplements
- Do some physical activity, as directed by your obstetrician
- Always check your blood glucose before driving (due to an increased risk of severe hypoglycemia)
Gestational diabetesThe other form of diabetes that affects women is gestational diabetes, which develops during pregnancy. Mirroring the epidemic of type 2 diabetes, rates of gestational diabetes are also on the rise in the United States, particularly in the African American, Hispanic, American Indian and Alaskan native communities.
Gestational diabetes usually develops between the 24th to 28th week of pregnancy and affects about four percent of all pregnancies. This condition typically ends after birth; however, these women have a 50 percent risk of developing type 2 diabetes over the next 10 to 20 years.
Factors that increase a woman's risk of developing gestational diabetes:
- Obesity
- Previous history of gestational diabetes
- Sugar in the urine
- A parent or sibling with diabetes
- Polycystic ovary syndrome or other glucose metabolism problem
- Previous pregnancy in which the baby weighed more than nine pounds at birth
If you fall into any of these categories, you should be screened early, within the first tri-mester, for gestational diabetes. Women who find out that they have gestational diabetes should see a nutritionist and diabetes nurse educator, as diet is the first line therapy.
With careful diabetes management, women can and do have successful pregnancies and healthy babies.

TV review & photo gallery: AMC's eww- & aww-worthy 'Freakshow'
Former music producer Todd Ray and his family run the Venice Beach Freakshow, a collection of two-headed animals, strange artifacts, eccentric performers and human wonders on the Venice Beach Boardwalk. The series, and Ray, tell viewers that feeling abnormal should be celebrated. In Thursday's premiere of "Freakshow" (8:30 p.m. CT Feb. 14, AMC; 2.5 stars out of 4), Ray searches for a bearded lady and tries to hire America's second tallest man, George Bell, who doesn't like the term "freak." Ray explains that "freak isn't a bad word at all" and shares his philosophy with the 7-foot-8-inch giant. "It's a realization that wonder is still alive on planet Earth," Ray says. "That's a great feeling." His passion for the peculiar is praiseworthy, and erases any misgivings that the venture is exploitation at its most blatant. Still it's not that easy to watch a guy called Morgue stick a hook in his nose until it comes out his mouth. That's freaky--and, well, ew. "Freakshow" is preceded at 8 p.m. by AMC's other new bizarre reality show, "Immortalized," a competition to find the most creative taxidermist. Curt Wagner, RedEye's Show Patrol Want more?

text: (resend - i see the previous time i wrote the stuff below message was held for some reason @ beowulf) Hi, What budget do you have and how fast must latency be to the RAM? There will be a LOT of solutions to this. If you can get a box with way more dimm slots that's always the ideal solution - as smaller dimms are way cheaper a gigabyte than large dimms. Sometimes you can glue together 2 motherboards. Bandwidth to the RAM still is ok then, yet random lookup latency total horrible. So what really matters whether the software happens to stream (also some seemingly random patterns happen to systematically eat RAM in a sequential manner like for example computer chess endgametablebase generation - so that's effectively also streaming), or whether it looks up that RAM in really random manner (say search in Artificial Intelligence in all cases i'm aware of being optimized well always works random to lookups in RAM). In case things are random lookup yet the number of bytes from each read is significant, the overhead of random latency is less. As for DDR2 versus DDR3, just look at price versus performance. Usually DDR3 is way faster. Probably you'll end up with a 4 socket AMD machine with DDR3. A single core is not so fast, but the bulldozer architecture might scale pretty well for the RAM latency, because of how communication between CPU's work, so reducing latency at the moment that you need to run a few cores, that dig in the same RAM randomly.

How long do fridges last?
Refrigerators can last 10 to 20 years, although the most common lifespan is about 13 years. If your fridge is acting up, consider its current age when deciding whether to invest in repairs or buy a new one. Common easy fixes include faulty thermostats, dirty coils and clogged drain lines. Thermostats and dirty coils can be generally be fixed for an average cost of $80-$100. Clogged drain lines, which usually cause leaks, can often be fixed for under $200.
More complex refrigeration repairs such as replacing a bad compressor or replenishing low refrigerant can cost more because of expensive parts and higher labor. A new compressor costs an average of $200, not including labor. If labor is an average of $75-$100 per hour, and the repair takes 3 hours, you're looking at roughly $500. Consider the age and purchase cost of your fridge; investing $350 in a $600 fridge that is 8 years old may not be cost-effective.
How much does refrigerator repair cost?
Refrigerator repair generally costs a fraction of the price of a new fridge and shouldhave your appliance up and running again in no time. The problems your refrigerator is experiencing and the parts required to fix it will affect your repair costs. Where you live can affect labor rates, which will raise or lower your costs. Here are some examples of average costs:
- Diagnostic fees: $50-$100. Repair pros often have a service call fee or diagnostic fee to account for their time traveling to your location with all their tools to assess the problem. If you choose to have them repair the fridge, most pros then credit this fee toward your repair cost.
- Parts: $20-$500. A new compressor averages $200, an icemaker $300, and computerized components such as touch screens and control boards average $300 or more.
- Basic repairs: $180-$400, including parts. This price range can include repairing the evaporator or fan motor.

Reception held in honor of Dean Joe Scartelli
A reception to honor the Radford University College of Visual and Performing Arts Dean Joe Scartelli was held on April 28, in the Covington Center Atrium.
After more than 20 years in the role, Scartelli is stepping down as dean at the end of June to return to the classroom. Scartelli joined the RU faculty in 1981 as the director of the school's then-new music therapy program. He took on the role of dean in 1988. Between 2009 and 2011, Scartelli served as interim provost and vice president for academic affairs.
Guests at the reception, hosted by CVPA faculty, were able to mingle with Scartelli, share stories of their time at Radford and talk about what the future holds for the university.
Many of the memories shared were about the students that have come and gone over the years, always eager to hone their art at Radford. It is estimated that nearly 4,000 students have graduated from the CVPA during Scartelli's tenure.
The CVPA prides itself on the combination of artistic and academic excellence across all of the arts disciplines. As a comprehensive arts institution, the CVPA contains the major art forms within its five disciplines: art, dance, interior design and fashion, Music, and theatre and cinema. It is also host to the RU Art Museum system.
Students readily enjoy access to all of the arts leading to an experience in which the student's major is complemented by exposure to a diverse artistic environment. Students in all CVPA programs work closely with accomplished and renowned faculty who serve as outstanding mentors and professional role models.
Much of the growth of the present-day CVPA is due to the tireless efforts Joe Scartelli, whose outstanding work as dean will not soon be forgotten.

#django DjangoBot
The #django IRC channel has bot that aides everyone with some pretty basic tasks. It takes the identify of the nickname DjangoBot. It is currently written using the Twisted networking library and can be found at http://code.google.com/p/djangobot/. It is written and maintained by Brian Rosner.
Trac Ticket/Changeset Linking
It is very common for someone to reference a ticket or changeset in the IRC room. The DjangoBot will handle the linking for you if you follow the basic syntax it requires. To reference a ticket simply use the Trac syntax #13. The same applies to changesets, r530. The DjangoBot does not work with the square bracket notation due to IRC nickname collisions for those who use square brackets around their numbered name.
DjangoPeople Integration
The excellent djangopeople.net website created by Simon Willison and Natalie Downe is integrated with the bot. If you send a privmsg to the bot you can find out a bit more information about the peers you talk with in #django. Simply do:
/msg DjangoBot who brosner
The bot will then go out and fetch information about brosner. This works with any IRC handle that is associated to a profile on DjangoPeople.
Future Features
Ticket/Changeset Channel Notification
Work is under way to linking the Trac feed with the bot. This will provide updates as they occur on Trac. To reduce noise only tickets that are created/closed/reopened and changesets will be notified. This work is almost complete and in beta testing now.
Dpaste Channel Notification
There is the possibility of doing some form of integration with the official Django pastebin, dpaste.com. There is no word on what the integration will look like, but a good future feature.
Reporting Bugs
If you happen to come across a bug with the bot, please head over to http://code.google.com/p/djangobot/issues/list and check if it has already been issued, if not please create a new issue!

Pa. town seeks to fire police chief in gun videos
GILBERTON, Pa. (AP) -- Town officials said Thursday they intend to fire a police chief suspended after he posted online videos of himself shooting automatic weapons and going on profanity-laced tirades about liberals and the Second Amendment.
Gilberton council members made the decision on Thursday concerning Chief Mark Kessler, the only full-time member of the town's police force, who's active in gun rights circles and is organizing an armed, non-government group that critics call a private militia.
Kessler, despite insisting he was simply exercising his constitutional rights in the videos, said the town council's decision was "no surprise."
"We knew it was coming," he said.
A closed-door disciplinary hearing earlier in the day had dwelled on allegations including that Kessler improperly used a state-administered program to buy discounted tires for his personal vehicle, failed to submit required crime data and made derogatory comments about borough officials, said his attorney, Joseph Nahas.
Nahas said the charges were trumped up to conceal the town's intent to fire Kessler over the videos. He said after the vote he'll request a public hearing at which both sides can call witnesses, as is Kessler's right under due process rules. The council would then have to vote a second time to fire Kessler.
Kessler told reporters outside his disciplinary hearing that he had been an excellent police chief and had nothing to apologize for. He said later he'd broken no laws: "None. I'd be in handcuffs."
"My message was to wake up the people who are independents," he said, "to say, 'We've had enough and something needs to change, because we're in bad shape all around. Not only here in this little town but across the nation. It's a mess.'"
Kessler solicited donations to help keep his family afloat financially during his unpaid suspension, which he said was "really stressful."
"But I feel in my heart I'm doing the right thing," he said. "Yeah, I made some videos with some choice language, but that's my right. That's my freedom."
Kessler's pro-gun videos have garnered hundreds of thousands of views online. He acknowledges they are inflammatory but says they're designed to draw attention to the erosion of Second Amendment and other constitutional rights.
Council members declined to comment after Thursday night's vote. Earlier, Mayor Mary Lou Hannon had said she found the police chief's language offensive.
Kessler, a former coal miner, often posts online radio shows about gun rights, has spoken at gun rights rallies and created a website on which he seeks recruits for the Constitution Security Force, whose stated mission is to defend the constitution and the country from tyranny.
Gun rights activists had descended on the community of about 800 people, in Schuylkill County in eastern Pennsylvania's anthracite coal country, to show support for Kessler, some carrying flags and displaying weapons.
Constitution Security Force member Bob Gardner traveled from Philadelphia.
"Mark has gotten railroaded," said Gardner, who carried a semi-automatic AK-47. "He was exercising his First Amendment rights by backing it up with his Second Amendment rights."
In January, Kessler drafted a resolution the borough adopted that calls for nullifying any federal, state or local regulations that infringe on the Second Amendment.

As an e-mail provider with over 10 million mailboxes...........that's not 100% accurate. But anyhow.Email providers resort to blacklisting rather than more sophisticated spam detection solutions, because it's cheap and dirty, keeps their customers happy with less perceived spam, and saves the provider money while keeping their customers ignorant of the fact that legitimate email sent to them is potentially blocked.
Good news - at the moment you're not listed on any of the major blacklists. Either you've managed to get de-listed, or your issue wasn't RBLs (properly-implemented RBL rejections will show up as 571 messages in your mail log).
Something you should address immediately: add txt records in your DNS for SPF. Last I looked, Microsoft relied fairly heavily on SPF at its content filter stage. I don't know if they back-feed their content filter stuff into private RBLs or now.

All that takes time - in my case a B&M light I sent back to the retailer was lost by them and eventually got back to me about 6 months later - unreplaced and unrepaired because the manufacturer said there was no problem with it.
That was my experience with Bike24 and Sigma Sport ... learnt an expensive lesson and will not go near Sigma Sport products again and will think carefully about buying products from German retailers where there is a reasonable chance of needing warranty support.

Groovy, Inviting Velvet & Velour Sofas from House Tours
Velvet is a fabric that can conjure up some pretty disparate images: You've got the Old Money traditionalism and a refined aesthetic (think elegant Victorian drawing rooms). Then there's New Money ostentation (think over-the-top opulence in a mogul's McMansion). And don't forget the "money's no object" tackiness of velvet paintings!
But to me, velvet is an incredibly versatile and glorious upholstery fabric that--when done in small doses--can bring life and personality to almost any kind of decor. Soft, inviting, and sensual, velvet sofas can soften up even the most sterile and sharp-edged room.
Here are some wonderful velvet sofas from Apartment Therapy house tours:
• 1 Suzi's European Countrystyle Condo. I've always loved the look and feel of a single long cushion on a sofa.
• 2 Kristin's Hollywood Home in the Historical Il Borghese. Part bohemian, part Hollywood glam, this rose colored vintage velvet couch is a showstopper. And you don't have to worry about spilling red wine on it.
• 3 Philip & Leong's Live/Work City Space The contrast between this lively, child-like, candy-colored sofa and the deep "grown-up" brown of the walls is brilliant.
• 4 Kristy & Phil's House of Little Treasures. The crushed velvet sofa gives a real bohemian, flea market edge.
• 5 Emily & Erick's Modern Eclectic British Eccentric Bungalow. This charming and original chartreuse velvet sofa is just one of the many delights in this truly eclectic and funky living room.
• 6 Terri and Evan's Blue Velvet Home. Soft blue velvet is the epitome of comfort. And its lushness provides a nice contrast with the modern geometric patterns on the wall behind it.
• 7 Elisa's Red, White & Cozy. Can you imagine how different this room would look without this extraordinary and dramatic red velvet sofa?
• 8 Sharon & Chris's Monochrome Wonder. This luscious grey sofa from ABC Carpet & Home is so versatile. It would look equally at home in a sleek modern setting as in an bohemian one.
• 9 David & Wade's Cocktail Oasis. The soft dusty blue of this sofa provides a softness and warmth to this streamlined and masculine room.
• 10 Danielle's Story Filled Home House Call. This fabulous orange chesterfield takes this traditional room to a whole new level.

ANN ARBOR, Mich., July 13 (UPI) -- Cold War research and the science used to track radioactivity and model nuclear bomb blasts are making contributions to climate science, researcher say.
Climate science and nuclear weapons testing have a long and perhaps surprisingly intimate relationship, University of Michigan historian Paul Edwards writes in The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists.
After the 2011 Fukushima disaster, for example, the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organization tracked the radioactive plume emanating from damaged Japanese nuclear reactors with a global network of monitoring stations that were designed to measure airborne radiation -- a direct descendant of systems created to trace the fallout from weapons tests, Edwards writes.
Cold War research has found a place in the environmental scientist's toolbox, he writes.
The earliest global climate models relied on numerical methods similar to those developed by nuclear weapons designers analyzing shock waves produced in nuclear explosions, he said.
Facilities built during the Cold War to create weapons, now use their powerful supercomputers, expertise in modeling, and skills in managing large data sets to address the threat of catastrophic climate change.
"Today, the laboratories built to create the most fearsome arsenal in history are doing what they can to prevent another catastrophe -- this one caused not by behemoth governments at war, but by billions of ordinary people living ordinary lives within an energy economy that we must now reinvent," Edwards said.

EPA offers grants to address health & environmental issues
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region 6 office in Dallas is accepting grant applications for $100,000 in funding to support projects designed to educate and enable communities to understand and address local health and environmental issues. Eligible applicants from non-profit, faith-based and tribal organizations working in the community of the proposed project are encouraged to apply.
EPA Region 6 will award four grants of $25,000 to support projects that address a community's local environmental issues through collaborative partnerships. These grants are available in Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas.
Additionally, four grants of up to $50,000 will be awarded nationally to gather science on the environmental and health impacts of exposure to multiple sources of pollution in communities.
Environmental justice means the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people, regardless of race or income, in the environmental decision-making process. Environmental justice issues often involve multiple sources of contamination, like pollution from several industrial facilities within one neighborhood, environmental hazards at the workplace or home or contamination resulting from the consumption of fish or other subsistence foods. Applications must be postmarked by March 31. For more information, including eligibility requirements, purposes, goals and general procedures, visit www.epa.gov/environmentaljustice/resources/publications/grants/ej-smgrants-rfp-2011.pdf _

Stars of NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour Are Talkin' Practice
It's still a little over a month before NASCAR invades "The Magic Mile," but the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour got an early jumpstart in preparation for the Town Fair Tire 100 on July 14. Some of the top stars in the series took to the track on Tuesday, testing everything from tire pressure to gear boxes.
"As far as driving the track, I don't think we're going to learn anything," said Todd Szegedy, who has two wins and 14 top-10's in 19 careers starts at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. "Track time is always good. … Hopefully, if we learn a little something it will be good for us when we come back."
Szegedy currently sits 10th in the standings, 42 points behind first-place Doug Coby and 37 points behind second-place Ron Silk, who were also both at the testing session on Tuesday.
Coby, who drives the No. 52 Reynolds Auto Wrecking/Sims Metal Management Chevrolet, noted that that car number hasn't had the best luck at NHMS in the past, but is hoping Tuesday's information will give them an edge when they return next month.
"The team hasn't been too happy with any car they've brought here for any of the (past) drivers," said Coby, who has two wins in the first four races this season. "We're going to work on some stuff and hopefully it pays off."
Silk – winner of last September race at NHMS and last year's overall points champion – has gotten off to a great start this season with a win and four top-5's. Yet four races into the season, he sits five points behind Coby in the standings. And while the thrill of a tight points race is certainly something Silk appreciates, he also knows that when they return in July, there will be another reason to get excited.
"The thing that's most fun is measuring yourself up against someone like that and getting to race someone of his caliber," said Silk of NASCAR Sprint Cup Series veteran Ryan Newman, who will be in the field for the Town Fair Tire 100.
Newman will also be in town on Wednesday, June 13 for a special event at "The Magic Mile." Newman will be taking media and fans for ride-alongs in antique cars that include former speedway owner Bob Bahre's 1936 Duesenberg SJN.

Best readers I've bought!!
By Teacher
from Philadelphia, pA
These are the best readers I've bought. They fit snugly around the ear and don't fall off when looking down. The lenses are very clear. I've bought a lot of different brands of reading glasses and these are by far the best!!

Love my glasses. Reasonably priced.

I liked that I could choose men's or womens frames. You can't do that everywhere.
To make it simple for you to choose the frames that best fit your face, we have included the measurements of every frame we currently have available. Frame measurements are determined by several widths, including lens width, bridge width, and temple width. To determine your perfect fit, you can simply use a ruler to measure the width of your face from temple to temple. This distance will be very similar to your frame fit and will help you pick the correct size.
As one of the first sunglass brands and now a fashion trendsetter in stylish readers, Foster Grant® is widely celebrated for offering great value on a wide selection of eyewear. These iconic readers deliver stylish solutions that are elegantly smart and always a step ahead.

Adding vital wheat gluten to whole wheat flour
All I have on hand at the moment is finely ground WW flour. I would like to make some baguettes (I know they won't be "authentic" with 100% WW flour, but that's the shape I want). I've never made any 100% WW bread before, and I don't want them to come out dense. Does it make sense to add vital wheat gluten? The WW flour was milled from hard wheat, and supposedly the issue with most WW flour is not low protein, it's the effect of the bran cutting into the gluten strands. If that's what's going on, then it seems that adding VWG wouldn't help, yet part of me thinks that it might.
I've seen some of these things touched upon in other posts but not this specific question. If it has been covered, sorry for not finding it. But the basic question is, if the reason WW bread tends to be dense is the bran, not the lack of protein, does it make sense to add VWG?
Oh, one more thing - I know some people have said you need to do a long soak to soften the bran, but let's assume that you're somewhat pressed for time and would like to get the loaves done in a few hours. Not the best way to make bread, I know, but humor me here. Thanks.

Ability to move the pre-created sections to other pages on the website.
It would be nice to be able to drag and drop the pre-created pages onto a different page on the website. I also do not see a place where I can "duplicate" a pre-created section theknot had created on the website. Whenever I want to create a new section, it's only a standard/basic format. Having this would be helpful.
Hi and thank you so much for your idea!
We will definitely take this into consideration. We're always trying to improve the Wedding Website experience for couples so we welcome all of your great ideas.
We will keep this forum updated as we make improvements!
Enjoy your planning!

This doesn't address your primary concern, but it may help. I opened a feedback request in the link below and the "admin" answered with the general carpet bomb reply... it's a common request..we are working on it, some day we will address...yada yada yada.. but I discovered that the site does have not so easy to find functions that addressed my primary issue, and may help...well at least mitigate some of your concerns. Click the below link and look for my comment with the 6 bullet point steps

Has this been resolved yet? I would like to essentially create 3 "Things to See" pages, well using it's format so I can add a "Places to Eat" and a "Places to Drink" page that is set up exactly like the "Things to See" pages. Please tell me this is possible now? I can't seem to figure it out so it appears like it is not. Which is incredibly unfortunate. :/
Nicole Tarcsay commented
How can you do this? Would much like to rearrange things without starting over.


text: It is never good for the Monsters when the biggest cheer from their fans is in response to a fight. The Lake Erie offense was punchless Sunday afternoon in a 4-2 loss to the Rochester Americans in a game that wasn't as close as the final score. Less than 24 hours earlier, the Monsters were skunked at home by the Hamilton Bulldogs, 2-0. It was Pucks and Paws day in Quicken Loans Arena. Fans were allowed to take their dogs to the game for an extra $5 a pooch. The money raised, approximately $2,500, went to the Cleveland Animal Protective League. All the wagging tails and cute dog-owner pictures flashed on the scoreboard put patrons in good humor, but then the Monsters spoiled the party for the crowd of 8,136, including the 500 dogs. Rochester led, 4-0, before a goal by Andrew Agozzino with 6:48 left in the third period ended Lake Erie's scoreless drought. Luke Walker cut the lead to 4-2 with a shot over the left shoulder of Rochester goalie David Leggio with 1:19 to play. Lake Erie outshot Rochester, 40-26, but quantity and quality are not the same thing in hockey. The Monsters were 0-for-3 on the power play. "We're not scoring enough, plain and simple," Coach Dean Chynoweth said. "We didn't get enough traffic in front of (Leggio). He saw everything and made the saves. When we started to generate some quality chances, we managed to get a few goals." Monsters goalie Sami Aittokallio was in net for the first time since Jan. 26 after missing five weeks with a lower body injury. He shut the Amerks out in the first period but could not sustain that mastery. The goal that doomed the Monsters was scored 15 seconds into the third period. Rochester winger Matt Ellis pounced on a loose puck in the Lake Erie defensive zone and sent it to Maxime Legault in the right faceoff circle. Legault snapped off a shot past Aittokallio for a 3-0 lead. It was Legault's second goal of the game. Fans realized the game was all but over at that point, but 5:09 into the third, Monsters left wing Tyler McNeely gave them reason to cheer when he got into a donnybrook with Rochester's Frederick Roy. Both players got in some good swings. When officials finally broke it up it was back to what has amounted to lackluster hockey on Lake Erie's part. "It's practice habits. Maybe we aren't going as hard as we should have," said Walker, who assisted and Agozzino's goal. "We've been give days off. We should be rested. There are really no excuses for the way we've been playing. "We've just got to turn this ship around. I've been terrible the last three games. Starting with me and everyone, we've got to go back to basics and keep it simple." The Monsters, 26-23-2-7, have lost 12 of their last 14 games. The defeat Sunday was costly in the tight race for playoff spots in the AHL West because Lake Erie and Rochester are now tied for the eighth and final spot. Each team has 61 points, but the Americans have the edge because they have played four fewer games. Lake Erie has two more home games on this eight-game home stand. They host Peoria on Tuesday and Thursday. Both games begin at 7 p.m.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — As Iranians marked the 33rd anniversary of the seizure of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, a commander of the powerful Revolutionary Guard on Friday offered a pot of gold to anyone who could prove that America is not "the most criminal regime on earth."
Speaking to a crowd of thousands outside the building that once housed the embassy, Gen. Mohammad Reza Naqdi said 10 kilograms (22 pounds) of gold would be given to anyone who found a regime "more criminal than the United States."
But, he added, that would be impossible, because the Guard has "already done the research and found Washington is the worst on earth."
Naqdi's speech was in keeping with the defiant rhetoric that Iran's leadership often uses during the annual rallies marking the embassy seizure. He also said Iran would only restore diplomatic ties with the United States if Washington disbands the CIA and removes its bases from the region.
As he spoke, Iranian students outside the former embassy building chanted "Death to America" and "Death to Israel" and burned U.S. and Israeli flags.
The rally marked the Nov. 4, 1979 storming of the embassy by militant Iranian students who held 52 Americans hostage for 444 days to protest America's refusal to hand over the toppled Iranian shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi back to the country for trial.
Washington severed relations with Tehran after the embassy takeover, and they have not been restored since.
This year's demonstration in Tehran, which under the Persian calendar fell two days ahead of the anniversary according to the Western calendar, comes as Iran's relations with the West are at their lowest yet. Concerns are also rising as Israel has threatened to strike Iran's nuclear facilities if Tehran doesn't stop uranium enrichment — a process that can be a pathway to nuclear arms.
The West suspects Iran is using its civilian nuclear program as a cover to develop atomic weapons. Tehran has denied the charges, saying its program is peaceful and geared toward generating electricity and producing radioisotopes to treat cancer patients.
Iran has been hard hit by intensified U.S. and European Union economic sanctions meant to curb the suspect nuclear program.
Ordinary Iranians have felt the bite of the sanctions and the Iranian rial has plummeted in value against the dollar, a slide that has accelerated over the past month.
At Friday's rally, students brandished an effigy of President Barack Obama and distributed pamphlets denouncing America and the sanctions. One banner called Obama a "loyal dog" of Israel, with a caricature showing the U.S. president with a metal chain around his neck linked to an Israeli flag.
The former embassy is now painted with anti-Amercan murals and used as a training site for Guard troops.
Naqdi, who commands the Guard's paramilitary branch known as the Basij, set his own "conditions" for resumption of diplomatic relations with the U.S. in a speech to the crowd.
The U.S., he said, must abolish the CIA, pull out its warships from the Persian Gulf and dismantle its military bases in 50 countries around the world if it wants to restore ties with Tehran.
Iran blames the CIA for helping topple the country's elected government in the 1950s and it blames the United States for openly supporting the late shah against the Islamic revolution that led to the collapse of the dynasty. Iranians also condemn Washington for arming and supporting former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein during the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq war.
"They (the U.S.) must prove they've grown into sensible human beings and stop supporting the usurper Zionist regime," said Naqdi, expanding on his list of conditions.
A statement released by the organizers of the event said the U.S. will remain Iran's "No. 1 enemy and the Great Satan," a term commonly used by Tehran to vilify Washington.

Three topics:
- Upcoming public seminars in November and January
- Template programming workshop in Germany in October
- My new "improved" web site
My revamped web site (see below) now features a page dedicated to my
upcoming public seminars, including the ones I'll be giving in Switzerland
and Germany in November and the one I'll be giving in Portland in January.
For details, visit http://www.aristeia.com/seminars/, then mark off some
time on your calendar to come listen to me prattle on about C++ :-)
The workshop on template programming I've mentioned in previous mailings
now has a final program, and you can find it at
http://www.oonumerics.org/tmpw00/. Having read all the submissions (we
could accept only 10 of 21), I can assure you that the presentations will
be very strong, and I just wish I could go myself. (I can't, sigh.) The
workshop will take place on Tuesday, October 10. (This is a day later than
originally scheduled, by the way). To register, visit
http://www.netobjectdays.org/node00/en/Register/index.html and sign up for
the conference; there is no special registration for the workshop alone.
If you can't attend, I encourage you to read the papers that will be
presented there. You'll be able to get to them via that same URL,
http://www.oonumerics.org/tmpw00/, but the links may not be present until
after the workshop.
One member of the Program Committe, reflecting on the submissions we
reviewed, shared this with the other members of the PC. He didn't expect
me to share it with others, but I think it accurately reflects the
workshop, and I thought you might find it interesting:
I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of many of the papers
submitted to the workshop. Considering that this is a newly-born workshop
and it is held in Germany, the result is impressive. There are many
workshops held every year, some in conjunction with top quality
conferences. Most of them will just accept any paper that happens to be
submitted, expecting no novelty but instead repeating well-known
"positions" of the authors. Instead, the C++ template workshop has a
program that indeed allows it to claim that it is the premier outlet for
top-quality work in C++.
If you can make it to Erfurt next month, I think you'll find the workshop
well worth attending.
My web site has been revamped to include more information and to be easier
to navigate. If you find something wrong with the "new" www.aristeia.com,
please let me know. Please also let me know if you find my ISP flaky (they
host the site). I've received a report that the site is *very* slow and
that 10061 errors ("connection refused") are common. It works fine for me,
but then again, there are zero hops between me and my ISP. On the other
hand, I've heard this complaint from only one person, so I'm kind of hoping
it's just him...
BTW, please don't give me grief about my use of frames at the site. It was
the least unpleasant of the options I had at my disposal, and besides, I'm
still not using cookies. Nor do I plan to.
I want to plug the person who did the work on the web site, because I found
him to be extremely professional in every way. He was determined to
produce a site that I was happy with, even if that meant rewriting things
several times to get the effect I wanted (across multiple browsers), and he
was willing to do research to find out how my latest impossible demands
could be met. He was amazingly responsive, and I do mean that I was
amazed. I also found his fees to be quite reasonable. If you are looking
for somebody to help you with web site work, I encourage you to contact:
