CVS Caremark's MinuteClinic testing telehealth at 28 sites
WOONSOCKET, R.I. — Forging ahead on its longer-term goal of creating a national platform to support primary care, CVS Caremark plans to open up at least 150 new MinuteClinic locations this year and is now testing telehealth at more than two-dozen sites.
With a primary care physician shortage that is expected to reach 45,000 in 2020 and nearly half of patients indicating that they do not have a primary care physician, the role of MinuteClinic is no doubt becoming increasingly vital.
As noted during the company's 2013 Analyst Day in December, the company is looking to increase access via such technology as telehealth, in addition to expanding its geographic footprint and non-acute services.
During Tuesday's fourth-quarter conference call with analysts, president and CEO Larry Merlo said the company is now piloting telehealth at 28 sites in Los Angeles, San Diego and Orange County, Calif.
"Our California nurse practitioners are now providing patient care remotely through sophisticated video technology and audio equipment with licensed vocational nurses assisting patients," Merlo said. "We plan to expand this exciting pilot to a second state later this year, and we look forward to the results."
Merlo also said that during the fourth quarter, revenues at MinuteClinic rose more than 10% despite a tough comparison with a strong flu season in 2012.
During the quarter, the company opened 74 net-new clinics, including clinics in new states and markets, such as New Hampshire and the San Francisco/San Jose area, and hit a milestone of 800 total clinics in 28 states and Washington, D.C.
During 2014, the company plans to open 150 new MinuteClinic locations. By 2017, it expects to have about 1,500 clinic locations.
Two, national, leadership breakthroughs in a single month! CVS is beginning to re-establish its reputation as a leader in the race to transform pharmacies into critical points of entry into a national healthcare delivery system. First, came breaking the habit of selling tobacco. Now, from the company that first launched retail-affiliated clinics on a national scale, comes telemedicine--an innovation that could eventually connect 8,000 virtual points of entry to an integrated healthcare system for the 21st Century.

CVS Caremark Q4 results rise to produce record year
WOONSOCKET, R.I. — CVS Caremark released on Tuesday fourth-quarter results, which came in at the high end of expectations and helped produce a record year, but as expected, among the key topics of discussion during the conference call with analysts was the company's recent decision to stop selling tobacco products in all of its stores by Oct. 1.
"Last week we announced our decision to exit the tobacco category, a category that we believe is inconsistent with our growing role in the changing healthcare marketplace," Larry Merlo, president and CEO, told analysts. "Simply put, this was the right decision at the right time. There is a far greater focus emerging on health outcomes, managing chronic disease and reducing costs, and exiting the tobacco category more closely aligns us with the goals of patients, clients and providers, positioning our company for future growth."
Merlo made note of the overwhelmingly positive response across an array of key constituents, including customers, prospective and current clients, benefit consultants, legislators and policymakers, and public health and Medicaid officials.
"All of whom see the health benefits, as well as the role that pharmacy can play in advancing smoking cessation and better managing chronic disease," Merlo said.
As reported, the move is expected to result in a loss of approximately $2 billion in revenues on an annual basis from the tobacco shopper. The $2 billion represents about 3% of earnings.
"When you look at that eight feet to 10 feet that tobacco commands today, there will be something replacing that space, and to be clear, it is not going to make up $2 billion in revenues, but it will be something. And there are some things that are being tested as we speak," Merlo said when asked about its plans at retail and the steps it would take to help offset some of the loss.
Added Helena Foulkes, president of CVS/pharmacy, "We are seeing this tobacco decision as an opportunity to connect even more consumers as an expert in health and beauty and to build our loyalty with them. As we focus specifically on the front store, it is really around driving what we will call 'smart growth' and I think there it has three elements: taking ExtraCare to the next level, the second is focusing on our core strength in health and beauty, and the third is driving our store brand penetration."
During the quarterly call with analysts, Merlo also provided analysts with a broad-reaching business update including:
• The impact of the Affordable Care Act and the role CVS Caremark can play in serving new customers and supporting health plans;
• Its joint venture with Cardinal Health to form the largest generic sourcing entity in the United States. The venture will help spur innovative purchasing strategies with generic manufacturers and is expected to be operational by July;
• The 2014 selling season, which has resulted in net-new wins of about $2 billion, excluding attrition in the Med D business. Merlo said that while it is too early to provide an update on the 2015 selling season, the company is "well-positioned" to both retain business and gain share; and
• The specialty pharmacy business, which posted a revenue increase of about 22% year over year. Merlo added that the company expects to see significant growth in the specialty space and is well-positioned to capitalize on the opportunity. Enter its acquisition in January of Coram, the specialty infusion services and enteral nutrition business unit of Apria Healthcare Group.
"This provides us with a new set of capabilities to manage not just the cost of infused drugs, but also to reduce the length of hospital stays and to help patients move from higher cost sites of service, like hospital outpatient centers, to more cost-effective locations, such as the patient's home or a physician's office," Merlo said.
Furthermore, its new Specialty Connect offering is on schedule to roll out in 2014. Analogous to the Maintenance Choice program, Specialty Connect integrates mail and retail capabilities to provide both greater choice and convenience for members.
CVS Caremark's MinuteClinic business, which posted a revenue increase of more than 10% during the quarter and reached a milestone with 800 total clinics in 28 states and Washington, D.C.
Net revenues for the three months ended Dec. 31 increased 4.6%, or $1.4 billion to $32.8 billion, up from $31.4 billion the year-ago period. For the year, total revenue rose 3% to $126.8 billion compared with $123.1 billion last year.
Revenues in the pharmacy services segment increased 5.2% to $19.6 billion during the quarter. This increase was primarily associated with drug cost inflation, new products and new clients in the specialty pharmacy business, the company stated. For the year, total revenue in the pharmacy services segment increased 3.8% to $76.2 billion
Revenues in the retail pharmacy segment increased 5.6% to $17.2 billion during the quarter. Same-store sales rose 4%, with pharmacy same-store sales up 6.8%. Front-end same-store sales decreased 1.9% due to softer traffic, which was partially offset by an increase in basket size, the company stated. For the year, total revenue in the retail pharmacy segment rose 3.1% to $65.6 billion. Same-store sales increased 1.7% for the year, with pharmacy same-store sales up 2.6% and front-end, same-store sales down 0.5%.
Income from continuing operations attributable to CVS Caremark for the three months increased 12.4% to $1.3 billion, compared with $1.1 billion in the year-ago period. Adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to CVS Caremark for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2013 and 2012 was $1.12 and $0.96, respectively, at the high end of guidance.
Income from continuing operations attributable to CVS Caremark for the year increased 18.8% to $4.6 billion. Excluding a gain from a legal settlement and the loss on early extinguishment of debt, adjusted EPS increased 15.7% in 2013 to $3.96, at the high end of guidance.
"I'm very pleased with our fourth-quarter results, with adjusted earnings per share coming in at the high end of our guidance at $1.12 per share, capping off a terrific year," Merlo said. "For full year 2013, we delivered strong growth in revenues, gross margins, operating margins and earnings across the CVS Caremark enterprise."

Kroger acquires digital coupon platform
CINCINNATI — Kroger on Tuesday announced it has purchased the assets of You Technology Brand Services, a Silicon Valley-based platform of digital coupons and promotions.
"You Tech's nimble and innovative digital coupon platform has enabled Kroger to deliver hundreds of millions of digital coupons to Kroger customers," stated Jeff Talbot, Kroger's VP customer loyalty. "This is a good strategic fit for both Kroger and You Tech. This transaction is consistent with our digital customer growth plan and provides Kroger a significant opportunity to expand our presence in Silicon Valley, enhancing our exposure to new technologies."
"We intend to build and grow the premier retailer and customer-centric digital coupon platform in the industry, while continuing to deliver for our broad base of retail customers," said Cheryl Black, You Tech's CEO. "We look forward to partnering with Kroger and other retailers and CPG companies to continue driving growth."
Founded in 2008, You Tech's retailer-centric, cloud-based platform bridges the gap between online engagement and in-store purchases, creating a measurable way to drive consumer purchase decisions online, in-store and on-the-go, the company stated. Its network, which includes Kroger.com/digitalcoupons, has grown dramatically and now includes more than 10,000 retail stores representing more than $100 billion in retail sales and 100 million U.S. households.
You Tech will continue to serve existing and future retail customers. Financial terms of the transaction, which closed today, were not disclosed.
Customer use of digital coupons has accelerated exponentially over the past several years. Kroger began offering digital coupons in late 2009 and reached 500 million digital coupon downloads about three years later. Customers have downloaded more than 400 million more digital coupons in just the last 12 months, Kroger reported.

When in doubt, map it out? Hey, it worked for Matt Moore at actKM 2009, a knowledge management conference. After hitting the wall on a few other ideas on how to make his session more interactive, he says:
Then the thought struck me. Get the participants to draw maps. So that's what I did. Six tables, six maps. In each case I asked them to map out knowledge management as an imaginary nation and then identify who else this nation might interact with (through trade, war or something else).
The results were really interesting, and made me wish that someone would do something like this for sessions I go to. Johnnie Moore, who I got the link to Matt's post from, adds,
I have sometimes found getting people to express their ideas through a medium or metaphor seems to unleash more refreshing, often less refined/polite ideas and observations. It's as if it bypasses some of our defenses against stepping into riskier territory.
And then goes on to tell what happened when he used a similar technique for a meeting he was facilitating. It's fascinating.

After living in Morocco for a year, I fell in love with the simplicity of some of the seating in living rooms. Don't get me wrong, Morocco is not really known for it's simplicity in design. I have seen a lot of heavy upholstery fabrics in living rooms where colors and patterns are mixed in some very colorful combinations. There can certainly be a lot of design overwhelm–color, texture, patterns–but when you take a deeper look at things you can also find a lot of simple elements to create a truly beautiful and livable room.
One of the simple elements I came across often was the use of floor cushions. Traditional sofas are around but low seating and floor cushions are also a big thing. In a previous life, I was a big fan of low seating. I loved having floor cushions gathered around a low coffee table and using it as a more casual dining area. Now that I'm back in a place of my own, I'd like to get back to some of the low seating dinners. A few weeks ago, my crafty mother did me a huge favor and made me a pair of floor cushions. From my extensive fabric collection, I chose an embroidery with a medallion type design. This navy embroidery motif is set against a natural cotton twill fabric. Using a cotton twill fabric makes it sturdier for use on the floor. To back the floor cushions, I dug up a beautiful indigo throw that I had from many years ago. The throw had a big chunk cut out of a corner so I couldn't really use it as a throw but I didn't want to throw it away since it was a really beautiful fabric and color. It has somewhat of a worn in look with a soft hand. Again, it's tough enough to end up on the floor without getting ruined. We added a few ties to keep it all together though after we finished decided we could probably add a few more ties.
I have pulled a few of my favorite floor cushion and low seating inspirations to share with you. Though I still have a ways to go, two floor cushions doesn't really make a party, I think we're off to a good start.

So, starting now, every time I get a request for something and I then see that it was featured on the Dr. Oz show, I'm going to tear it to shreds and expose it for the blatant sensationalistic ratings-grab that it is.
Today's ridiculous recommendation? Parasites may be the cause of your fatigue.
Problem #1: The whole premise. First of all, contrary to the statements of Dr. Oz and his guest, parasitic infections are NOT widespread. It's such an absurd idea that I'm not even going to justify it by referencing the facts unless someone really insists. Second, the whole diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome is incredibly contentious. Medical science is not even decided on what CFS exactly is, what causes it, and what symptomatology it represents. Because of that, there is no reliable way of stating its prevalence within a given population. Furthermore, there is only a SINGLE human study looking at the link between a SINGLE parasite (Giardia lamblia) and CFS. The study was poorly designed as it relied on mail questionnaires and did not control for lifestyle factors that could have explained the increase in CFS. And, if you can't agree on the diagnosis or definition of the condition you're studying, how valid are the results?
Problem #2: No evidence for the recommended therapies.
1. Garlic: Will not keep parasites away. There are no good quality human trials assessing the effects of garlic on human parasites. Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database, the best evidence-based reference for natural products, states that there is insufficient data to conclude any significant antimicrobial effect of garlic, despite the guest's claim that it is a "natural anti-microbial". So is ethanol.
2. Wormwood tea: This is the obscure question we got today. "Do you have any wormwood tea?" No in vivo human studies of any significance conducted using wormwood tea against intestinal parasites. No evidence whatsoever.
3. Papaya seeds with honey. I'll assume the honey is a crucial component? I love looking this stuff up. I get all sorts of results for experiments done in rats, pigs, and chickens. Fantastic. Again, no surprises. Absolutely no studies of significance in humans for this product. And in case you like using products tested in goats and lambs, it doesn't even work in them.
Crap, crap, and more crap. Pretend treatments for pretend causes of pretend "diseases". If you have chronic fatigue, I'm not saying it is not potentially due to a medically significant condition. However, you are one unlucky soul if it is caused by a gastrointestinal parasite. Given your luck, I wouldn't hedge your bets on the useless products recommended by Dr. Oz.
Dr. Oz is not on TV to make you healthier. He is on TV to make himself rich and to do the same for the companies that make the products that he recommends. And every time I think he can't get any more ridiculous and make his medical degree look like more of a joke, he surprises me. Watch him for entertainment or just plain interest, or because you like watching intellectual train wrecks unfold before your eyes. BUT DO NOT WATCH HIM FOR RELIABLE, HONEST, SAFE, OR SCIENTIFICALLY VALIDATED MEDICAL INFORMATION. In fact, you'd be much better served from a health perspective if you spent that 30 minutes exercising.

South Bend, Ind., May 18, 2009 / 12:31 pm (CNA).-
After previous Laetare Medal winner Judge John T. Noonan concluded his remarks at commencement, a provost of the University informed the crowd they were witnessing something historic: this was the first time a past Laetare Medal winner had been invited back to speak at commencement. What the Provost failed to mention, however, was the reason for Judge Noonan's invitation: for the first time the Laetare Medal was declined by its intended recipient because of the University's decision to honor President Obama.
Dr. Mary Ann Glendon was chosen by the University to receive what many consider to be the most prestigious award for an American Catholic. Presented by Notre Dame since 1883, the Laetare Medal honors individuals "whose genius has ennobled the arts and sciences, illustrated the ideals of the Church, and enriched the heritage of humanity." As a Learned Hand Professor of Law at Harvard Law School, consultant to the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, and the U.S. Ambassador to the Vatican for the past two years, there is not a more suitable candidate for this award than Mary Ann Glendon.
Ironically, the woman whom Notre Dame chose as the exemplar Catholic declined the award for exemplary Catholicism because of the University's short-comings in Catholicism.
In her letter to Father Jenkins on April 27, 2009, Glendon declined the honor. After learning that President Barrack Obama's would give the commencement speech and receive an honorary degree at the same ceremony, Glendon explained that her role as the Laetare Medal speaker "has been complicated by a number of factors."
She explained her dismay at learning of Notre Dame's decision because Obama is a "prominent and uncompromising opponent of the Church's position on issues involving fundamental principles of justice." Knowing that her acceptance of the Medal and her speech had been used by the University as a way to "balance" the event, Glendon was pushed to decline the medal.
She argued that a commencement "is supposed to a joyous day for graduates and their families" and not "for engagement with the very serious problems raised by Notre Dame's decision." Because Notre Dame is distinguished and praised for upholding its Catholic identity and tradition, Glendon explained her fear that this decision "could have an unfortunate ripple effect" on other Catholic universities and institutions.
After Glendon announced that she would decline the medal, the University quickly released a statement saying that they would find someone else to receive the Laetare Medal. A few days later, they University had no such luck. They reversed their decision and released a new statement saying that the Laetare Medal would not be awarded this year, but that Judge Noonan, a past Laetare Medal winner, would speak during commencement in place.
While Glendon chose not to come to Notre Dame for commencement, she did graciously accept an award from a Notre Dame student group. The Orestes Brownson Council, part of the student coalition "Notre Dame Response" that opposed the University's decision to invite and honor President Obama, awarded Dr Glendon the Bishop John M. D'Arcy Award for extraordinary witness to the faith and service to the Church on May 17, 2009 at the group's "Rally on the Quad" event. John Buttacci, the leader of the council, spoke of Glendon's courageous witness to the faith and applauded her decision to decline the medal, though she most deserved it.
"Very soon after it was announced that Professor Glendon would be the Laetare Medal recipient, the Council, together with ND Response, decided that she overwhelmingly deserved to be recognized by the students," Buttaci explained.
When Glendon later declined the Laetare Medal, the students did not waver in their desired to honor Glendon themselves. "The students could not be more grateful for her example," Buttaci said.
Even though Professor Glendon could not be present to accept her award, she told students by email correspondence that she was honored to receive the award, named for someone whom she looked up to as a personal hero, Bishop D'Arcy. Further, she said that the students of ND Response gave her "great hope for the future of Notre Dame, the Church and the country."
Bishop D'Arcy, who attended the group's demonstration that day, blessed the award.Visit our Notre Dame photo gallery: http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/obama_notredame/

Professor B is a math program that is computer based. You download worksheets for additional practice. There are three levels within this program, and Algebra is coming soon. It starts with working with numbers one through ten and the student progresses learning math concepts up to transforming decimals into equivalent percents. Although it is computer based there are no sounds, in fact it is all scripted and is intended for the child and parent to work side by side during the lesson presentations.
My kids love working on the computer. So when I asked DJ would he join me on the computer he quickly joined me for a lesson.
After the first lesson I could only get DJ to do this program with bribery, a few worksheets were still completed. I decided that maybe this program would be a better fit for Ken.
Ken worked with me on this! We did this program over a two week span. She worked on Level II of the program which is geared toward third through fifth grade. At the end of the two weeks she was much better at locating exactly where she went wrong if her problem was incorrect. I contribute this to the step by step scripted lessons. When the two weeks were up she ran to her Montessori math materials like they were her best friends.
The truth is our home school is still in the deschooling process. With this being said a math program like this isn't what my family needs right now. It is too much like school, the textbook being the computer screen. We value creativity and a hands on approach to learning, especially math. I think we could use this program if we come across any remedial concerns with math. The step by step script leaves no room for misinterpretations.
The practice worksheets will be used when they have made it to the abstraction level of the concepts.
I would recommend this program to:
1. A traveling family who could not pack manipulatives.
2. Someone who wants a math program that is put all together.I
3. A parent with a child who is a visual learner.
4. A new homeschooling parent who may feel a bit intimidated about teaching their children math (everything is scripted)
5. A parent with a child who is an excellent reader who can work independently with a new math concept.
6. Possibly a tutor to target what skills need to be addressed.
Here are sample lessons.
The cost of this program is $20.00 for one level the more levels you add on the more you save. For all three levels it is $45.00 per month and there are several options to pay.
Professor B offers more than E learning. They have tons of arithmetic books, and algebra books too

The Government's planned revaluation of business rates has been hailed as "good news" for Lancashire's businesses.
Local Government Minister Marcus Jones has published a consultation on the revaluation of business rates which will ensure bills accurately reflect changes in the property market.
Business leaders have said for many years that the current business rates system is crippling them and stifling growth. An online petition set up by The Gazette's parent company Johnston Press calling for an overhaul of the business rates system was signed by more than 5,000 people in 2014. Meanwhile, draft rateable values were being published by the Valuation Office Agency.
John Webber from commercial real estate company Colliers International said the revaluations will be "the largest changes to business rates in a generation".
New figures published as part of the Government consultation show that the majority of businesses across the country will be unaffected or better off by the changes, with many looking forward to their bills falling.
The Government says that revaluation will reduce bills in the North West by 10 per cent before inflation and transitional relief.
Babs Murphy, chief executive of the North and Western Lancashire Chamber of Commerce said: "It is good to see that the Government is looking at a wide-ranging fairer business rates system, as this unfair tax hammers businesses across the country, before they've even made single pound in profit. This announcement has to be good news for business".
The deadline for the consultation is October 26. Details can be found at www.gov.uk.

Give a Laptop and Get One
Nicholas Negroponte hopes the One Laptop Per Child's "Give 1 Get 1" initiative will jump-start distribution of the new XO Laptop.
After two-and-a-half years of relentless organizing, product development, and evangelizing, the so-called $100 laptop is ready to go into production in October. At a time like this, you'd think that übertechnology visionary Nicholas Negroponte and his team at the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) organization would be stockpiling champagne for a blowout celebration. Far from it.
While the notebook computer for schoolchildren in underdeveloped nations is just about ready for prime time, the goal of distributing tens of millions of the cute green-and-white machines still seems a far-off dream. The reasons: The computers, now called XO Laptops, will cost about $188 each to produce initially, nearly twice the original estimate; and, so far, not a single government has written a check.
That's why on Sept. 24, the OLPC announced a money-raising gambit called "Give 1 Get 1." Originally, the organization had no set plans to sell or distribute the computers in the U.S. Now it's hoping to capitalize on widespread interest from American gadget fans to raise enough money to pay for shipments of XO Laptops to four countries that are among the poorest of the poor: Afghanistan, Cambodia, Haiti, and Rwanda.
Laptop Donations
Under Give 1 Get 1, which will run for two weeks starting Nov. 12, U.S. customers will be able to pay $399 to buy two laptops: one for themselves and one to be shipped to a child in one of those four countries. About half of the purchase price will be tax-deductible. Also, starting Sept. 24, people can simply "give" a laptop by making a $200 donation. Those who'd like to participate can sign up for e-mail alerts on the Web site www.XOgiving.org. The machines, which are being built in Taiwan, will begin shipping to U.S. customers in January or February.
While the highly quotable Negroponte has been a master at getting publicity for OLPC, this effort is mostly about cash: "It has become important for us to raise money this way," says Negroponte. "I have met with about 30 heads of state. They're all enthusiastic. But there's a huge gulf between a head of state shaking your hand and a minister making a bank transfer." Negroponte won't predict how many laptops might be sold through Give 1 Get 1, but factory capacity presents no limitations: Quanta Computer in Taiwan can produce 1 million XO Laptops a month, if need be.
Interviewed during a stop in Europe, Negroponte admitted that the difficulties of his task sometimes discourage him. "You wake up some mornings feeling that way, but then I think about all the good people who are helping us and supporting us," he says. He hopes that by subsidizing the purchase of computers in the four countries, OLPC will prompt other countries to make their own investments.

It's been a nutty week as we decided last weekend to move the TechtalkRadio site from Web.Com to Go Daddy. Part of the decision to move the site came from a price increase at the site we had been with since it was Interland back in 1997. I understand that companies have to pay for new technology but when you get nothing new, it's time to start looking. One would think that with Offshore Customer service, they could afford to increase the storage, add features..no, we seem to have gained little with the company we had always given high marks to.

My personal favorite, from 101CookBooks.com, Thai-spiced Pumpkin Soup:
I've made this recipe from the fabulous 101CookBooks.com's Heidi Swanson, author of my go-to cookbook, Super Natural Cooking, so many times I've lost count. It's simple, ever a crowd pleaser and is easy to make in big batches. And it's simply scrumptious.
Recipe: Thai-spiced Pumpkin Soup
From Delish.com, Roasted Pumpkin with Shallots:
"This hearty side of sliced pumpkin and shallots is bursting with flavor, thanks to a light sauce of balsamic vinegar, oregano, and sage. Just like apples or other orchard fruits, many farms have pick-your-own-pumpkin patches, so you'll know exactly where your squash came from and that it was grown locally. Plus, the fun is in the choosing."
Recipe: Roasted Pumpkin with Shallots
From AmericanFeast.com, Vanilla-Cinnamon Apples:
"Start your quest for Halloween treats with a visit to a local farmers market, pick up some of their favorite fresh apples, and then give this recipe from our friends at Nielsen-Massey Vanillas a try. Their Vanilla Cinnamon Apples will add an element of sophistication to this year's festivities and are sure to have guests lining up for seconds. The recipe combines the savory flavor of Nielsen-Massey's Madagascar Bourbon Pure Vanilla Bean Paste with the delicious tart taste of fall apples to create a treat that is overflowing with gooey goodness."
Recipe: Vanilla-Cinnamon Apples
From 365Halloween.com via Mother Nature Network, Faux Stuffed "Intestines" Pie:
Sounds gnarly, but it's totally vegetarian! The crust is made of chick peas and the "intestines" are stuffed with green peas and other veg-friendly ingredients.
"If you're a fan of pot pies -- and who isn't -- you'll love the warm flaky crust of the "intestines" and the colorful creamy vegetable stuffing inside."
Recipe: Faux Stuffed "Intestines" Pie
From 101CookBooks.com, Spooky Ghost Meringues:
"Going along with the spirit of the season, I piped meringue into tiny ghost shapes. Looking through my oven's window, the baking sheet looks like it is housing a tiny ghost army. ... If you've never attempted to make meringues, you should. I know that beating egg whites and using a pastry bag all in the span of one recipe might seem a bit too fussy for some of you, but I'll play devil's advocate and say that on the flip side we are only talking about a tiny ingredient list."
Recipe: Spooky Ghost Meringues
From HomeAndGardenIdeas.com, Three Recipes for Pumpkin Leaves (yes, the LEAVES):
Before you think "yuck!" and skip ahead, I can tell you from experience that these are delicious! My son, Vasco, who is from Malawi in southern Africa, used to eat pumpkin leaves all the time and still loves them. While, most of the year, pumpkin leaves can be hard to come by, but not at Halloween. Two of these recipes are from Africa (Zambia and Tanzania) -- Pumpkin Leaves with Peanuts and M'chicha Wa'nazi (Pumpkin leaves in coconut sauce) -- the third, Pumpkin Leaf Vada, is from India. Tasty, easy to make, super nutritious and Earth-friendly. Try 'em. You'll like 'em.

From MotherEarthNews.com, Grilled Pumpkin with Rosemary and Sea Salt:
"During grilling, the sugars in the pumpkin caramelize. The combination of sweet and salty, coupled with crisp rosemary, will give you a different way of thinking about pumpkin. After trying this, you just might find yourself dreaming of expanding your pumpkin patch next year."
Recipe: Grilled Pumpkin with Rosemary and Sea Salt
From Organic.com, Pumpkin Cream Cheese, White Bean Pizza and Pumpkin Cookies:
"Start the day off right with a festive breakfast of bagels, pumpkin cream cheese (recipe follows), and fresh apples. This meal also works as a great treat for a morning Halloween party at your child's school. ..."

From Delish.com, Carrot Ribbons with Cashews:
"Another simple side dish, these carrot ribbons prove that great taste can be had without unnatural additives or artificial flavor enhancements. Cardamom, cinnamon, and ginger all lend a hand to create a wonderfully warm and welcoming taste, perfect for autumn."
Recipe: Carrot Ribbons with Cashews
From MotherEarthNews.com, Roasted Seaweed-and-Cayenne-Spiced Squash Seeds:
"Crunchy seaweed- and cayenne-spiced roasted pumpkin seeds make a fabulous topping for a fresh arugula salad, and counterbalance the sweetness of crispy cucumber and pear slices."

Discussion in 'Tank Journals' started by Flagg37, Mar 19, 2016.
Glad to hear things are looking good for you
I'm really happy too. I don't know if it's related but the po4 levels are continuing to drop and my eel came out to eat for the first time in about 2 months.
It's been a while since I've posted some pictures so here you go. The tank is finally at a point that I think is doing well. Things are growing instead of dying.
Once I get a good look at our place in Colorado I'll have to start planning the move in more detail. I think I may want to build a new tank with the same footprint but 6" taller. That way I can keep the stand and the rock work. I'd bump up the main rock structure a good 4" taller if I did that though.
So that means you'll sell the tank?
Oh, it's a 120g? Looks much bigger than that got some reason.
I hope you keep visiting our forum once you move...honorary bar member.

Well, if I build one that is 6" taller then I would be selling just the tank.
I forgot to mention. The other day in another thread I had said that I've never had my trochus snails spawn. Well the next morning I woke up and the tank was cloudy. Sure enough all the trochus were smoke'n. I'm not sure what is needed for the babies but, I had my filter socks in and the cloudiness cleared up in a couple hours. My clam was loving it. She was....happy as a clam.
Go higher in Colorado go 350g

@scuzy, I'll have a whole basement. I was thinking more like 450 (10'x30"x30"). Not right away though.
Man that sounds epic. Almost makes me want to move to another state too .
Given what a pain it will be to breakdown and move a big tank, I would rather just start new and epic when I arrive. Unless it's going to be a long while until I get the new tank.

Can you show me how you mounted your glass for the lights?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
I used what I use for my stair rail systems. It's called a u-channel. The glass sits inside it and then has rubber and plastic pieces that hold it tightly in place. The system requires that the glass is at least 1/2" thick and I used tempered starphire glass cut in a custom shape which cost quite a bit. If you had it cut in just a rectangle it would be quite a bit less. I have more of the u channel if you want to try it. How much do you need?
Thanks @Flagg37 at the moment I'm going to copy the idea with wood studs at the end and has more area for hold

So I've been a little lackadaisical with the tank lately since I've been a bit depressed with the prospect of having to break it down. I've only been doing the bare minimum which is feeding the fish. No algae scraping or emptying the skimmer cup or fiddling with anything. Guess what? Things are looking better than ever. Colors seem stronger and more pe. I guess I need to care less about my husbandry. I must have been like that little kid that loves their kitten so much that the squeeze it to death. It makes complete sense.
On a different note, I've had quite a few offers for many of my livestock but nothing has come to fruition. People have backed out of each deal. I'm by no means disappointed by this as I don't really want to part with anything. I want to open up the discussion for brainstorming a way to be able to take my tank. What has been decided so far with the move is that we will load up a trailer on December 14th and it will arrive around the 21st. I was planning on getting some kind of temporary tankand sending it in this first shipment. I'll be coming back on January 5th and likely driving my truck back to Colorado with anything that is left behind. This is when I would bring the livestock. I'm not quite sure how though. The drive is 18 hours if I drive non-stop. Can I put them in buckets? I have a freezer in my garage (the kind with a flip up lid) that I was thinking I could fill up with say 40 or 50 gallons of water and might be able to fit everything in. Since it's insulated it should do well with holding its temperature but how do I keep it aerated? I've got two 10w heaters and an air pump that could be used hopefully without popping a fuse. Anyway, if you've got some insight I'm all ears.
Why not bag the fish for transport just as if they were being shipped and then place them in a cooler or styrofoam fish shipping container" You can grab a couple of the packet warmers and pout them in there if you want. They are usually fine for up to 48 hours that way.
best to simply bag the fish with O2 in oversized bags.
use the freezer like a giant styro to keep fish warm
that freezer with loose water in it is a mess waiting to happen!
@Bruce Spiegelman, @Kensington Reefer, good ideas. Part of the reason I was going to just fill up the freezer was because it's about the same dimensions as my tank and I'd be able to (hopefully) put the massive piece of rock work in it, corals and all.
You could put your rock work in still and then bag the fish and corals separately. The only issue I see is a probable loss of some coral once they get into the new tank using the old rock. Even if you set a cycle going in the new Rocky Mountain high tank with a bacteria started and new sand you will still experience some level of a cycle when you put the old rock in. But I'm sue you can mitigate your losses.

My lovely mom died this morning.
The Christians surrounding her are, for the most part, going to claim that she's now in a better place, with Jesus, walking streets of gold, etc., while at least 100,000 of the other 180,000 people who have died since yesterday morning on planet earth are currently experiencing the beginning of their eternal conscious torment in hell.
Can we get the former without the latter, I wonder?
My opinion is that, with regards to that whole deal, they are mostly wrong.

I made the Tofurky Roast with vegetables, Panic Pepper Potatoes, the Baking Powder Biscuits from Vegan With a Vengeance and Sarah's Gravy. I also put out the Pumpkin-Apple Butter from Fat Free Vegan I made Saturday night. Yum!
So, what are Panic Pepper Potatoes? They're the best way I could think of to use up some extra potatoes and the contents of a McClure's Spicy Dill Pickles jar (cayenne peppers, garlic cloves, dill, vinegar). I used about ten potatoes and they were still too spicy for my parents and I to eat a full serving off. A forkful or two was very tasty, but beyond that, it was just too hot. My brother inhaled them, but then again, he eats wasabi raw.
My family still can't get enough of the Baking Powder Biscuits. We had some with gravy, some with pumpkin-apple butter and some plain. All caused joy. My brother put a tiny dab of the butter on a biscuit "just to taste because I'm not feeling pumpkiny right now." He took a bite, grinned hugely and proceeded to pile the butter onto his biscuit. That's what I liked to see (as long as it's not real butter)! I doubled the biscuit recipe this time and am shocked that there are still a couple left right this minute (unless someone ate them while I'm typing this at work).
Sarah's Gravy is a gravy recipe from my friend Sarah (duh). She made it up while standing in front of her stove and wanting to make something quick, easy and tasty. She succeeded. I think I overheated mine a bit because it was thicker than gravy should be, but everyone loved the flavor. The recipe I include below is how I made it, not exactly how she sent the recipe to me (she lists a bunch of optional ingredients and I don't want to give away all of her secrets).
Panic Pepper Potatoes (don't worry, I know this isn't an actual recipe):
Buy a jar of McClure's Spicy Garlic Dill Pickles.
Eat the pickles.
Boil about ten potatoes in the brine with as much water as necessary added.
While your potatoes are boiling, puree the remaining contents of the pickle jar.
Drain the potatoes.
Mix the cayenne/dill/garlic puree into the potatoes while mashing.
Serve with bread or something else absorbent (Tofurky!) to take care of the oils from the peppers. Do not drink, that will only make it worse.
Sarah's Gravy
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
3 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast
2 Tbsp Flour
1 Cup Water
2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
1 Tsp Garlic Powder
Whisk together first three ingredients over medium heat until they bubble. Continue whisking for an additional minute. Add water and whisk to dissolve. Bring to a boil, whisking occasionally. Lower heat and whisk in remaining ingredients.

So, here's my suggestion with a use for the peppers:
Dice the peppers up after removing the seeds and sauté with Tofu scramble, veggie cheese, and Gimme Lean sausage and whatever else you like for a killer vegan Omelette.
Also, if you have brine left, put some more cukes, onions, or carrots in there. You'll have some mildly spicy pickled foods ready in a week or so.
One more: Thai Curry - 1 can of Coconut Milk, 2 diced potatoes, a little bit of Jasmine Rice, handful of basil leaves, a bit of Tumeric, salt and some of the peppers and you've got a great curry.
I'm assuming your not in to eating products with casein, which will help diminish spiciness...at least to your taste buds...but as you mentioned in your blog...something starchy, carby to minimize direct oil 2 tongue contact would help too.

Wild Plants And Wooly Bears
I'll lead two wild plant walks at Holbrook Island Wildlife Sanctuary and State Park in Brooksville on Sunday, July 3. The first of two walks will begin at 1 p.m. and the second starts at 3 p.m.
Holbrook is a mostly undeveloped state park with inland sections, including a small mountain and a considerable amount of seashore. Hiking trails abound. Park roads, while unpaved, are immaculately maintained.
The walk will begin at the Backshore Trail trailhead on the sanctuary's main road,
Indian Bar Road. From
there we walk down a gentle, wooded slope and end at an old hayfield. Then we'll
walk back to the trailhead and drive the short distance to the parking lot at
park headquarters.
From there, we'll walk a short path down to a secluded beach where we'll find all sorts of seaside goodies. Most every one of my favorite seaside plants live here.
Folks who have never visited Holbrook will find it a relaxed, scenic spot, an undiscovered jewel of wild land on
rocky coast. Even the drive to Holbrook has its charms, the winding roads
offering spectacular views of Maine , its mountains and
islands. Penobscot
To see Holbrook Island Sanctuary on a map, look at Map 15, B-2 of the DeLorme Atlas and Gazetteer.
I hope to see a few readers there. There is no fee for the plant walk and no sign-up list either. Just come, learn some new plants and enjoy this special piece of
. Maine

Where is the light?
Light the fire if you have the desire!
Thunder, rushing wind, nothingness.
Black night, black stone.
Don't let your whole life go by in the dark.
Evidently the only way to find the path is to set fire to my own life.

Last Night
Last night as I was sleeping I dreamt a marvelous illusion
that there was a spring breaking out in my heart.
I said, "Along what secret aqueduct are you coming to me
Oh water, water of a new life that I have never drunk."
Last night as I was sleeping I dreamt a marvelous illusion
that there was a beehive here in my heart.
And the golden bees were making white combs
and sweet honey from my old failures.
Last night as I was sleeping I dreamt a marvelous illusion
that there was a fiery sun here in my heart.
It was fiery because it gave warmth as if from a hearth
And it was sun because it gave light and brought tears to my eyes.
Last night as I was sleeping I dreamt a marvelous illusion
that there was God here in my heart.
God, is my soul asleep?
Have those beehives who labor by night stopped, and
the water wheel of thought, is it dry?
The cup's empty, wheeling out carrying only shadows?
No! My soul is not asleep! My soul is not asleep!
It neither sleeps nor dreams, but watches, its clear eyes open,
far off things, and listens, and listens
at the shores of the great silence.
It listens at the shores of the great silence.
~ Antonio Machado ~
Web version at www.Panhala.net/Archive/Last_Night.html by Joseph Riley
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
Deafened by the voice of desire
you are unaware the Beloved
lives in the core of your heart.
Stop the noise,
and you will hear His voice
in the silence.
- Rumi
` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
"Rumi - Whispers of the Beloved"
Selected and translated by
Azima Melita Kolin and Maryam Mafi
Thorsons, London 1999 from Along the Way by M J Gilbert
"This silence, this moment, every moment, if it's genuinely inside you, brings what you need. There's nothing to believe. Only when I stopped believing in myself did I come into this beauty. Sit quietly, and listen for a voice that will say, 'Be more silent.' Die and be quiet. Quietness is the surest sign that you've died. Your old life was a frantic running from silence. Move outside the tangle of fear-thinking. Live in silence."
"Be quiet in your mind, quiet in your senses, and also quiet in your body. Then, when all these are quiet, don't do anything. In that state truth will reveal itself to you. It will appear in front of you and ask," what do you want?"
"Empty yourself of everything. Let the mind rest at peace. The ten thousand things rise and fall while the Self watches their return. They grow and flourish and then return to the source. Returning to the source is stillness, which is the way of nature."
Lao Tzu
"Things that are real are given and received in Silence. God has been everlastingly working in Silence, unobserved, unheard, except by those who experience His Infinite Silence."
Meher Baba
"Be still, and know that I am (God)."
Psalm 46:10
"Thought comes to an end. Then there is that sense of absolute silence in the brain. All the movement of thought has ended."
J. Krishnamurti
"There is a silence into which the world cannot intrude. There is an ancient peace you carry in your heart and have not lost."
A Course in Miracles
"What exists in truth is the Self alone. The self is that where there is absolutely no "I" thought. That is called Silence. The Self itself is the world; the Self itself is "I"; the Self itself is God."
Ramana Maharshi
"No particular thought can be mind's natural state, only silence. Not the idea of silence, but silence itself. When the mind is in its natural state, it reverts to silence spontaneously after every experience, or, rather, every experience happens against the background of silence."
Nisargadatta Maharaj
"Whenever we moderns pause for a moment, and enter the silence, and listen very carefully, the glimmer of our deepest nature begins to shine forth, and we are introduced to the mysteries of the deep, the call of the within, the infinite radiance of a splendor that time and space forgot"
Ken Wilber
"There is nothing mind can do that cannot be better done in the mind's immobility and thought-free stillness.
When mind is still, then truth gets her chance to be heard in the purity of the silence."

Looking For A Monk And Not
Finding Him
- Li Po
I took a small path leading
up a hill valley, finding there
a temple, its gate covered
with moss, and in front of
the door but tracks of birds;
in the room of the old monk
no one was living, and I
staring through the window
saw but a hair duster hanging
on the wall, itself covered
with dust; emptily I sighed
thinking to go, but then
turning back several times,
seeing how the mist on
the hills was flying, and then
a light rain fell as if it
were flowers falling from
the sky, making a music of
its own; away in the distance
came the cry of a monkey, and
for me the cares of the world
slipped away, and I was filled
with the beauty around me.

Brain Helmet
Often I dream
while being aware of my physical surroundings
which generally is unpleasant because
physiologically in the sleeping state
one is paralyzed.
I've seen documentaries on this phenomena
and throughout history this kind of dilemma
was chalked up as interaction with demonic spirits.
Interesting to note
that when this alignment of consciousness & physical paralysis
occurs to me
I always sense some foreign presence...
Usually in the form of an intruder breaking into
the physical space I am sleeping at.
This experience sucks
even more so because of the fact
I am literally physically paralyzed
(thanks to the 'genius' of evolutional hard-wiring).
This lovely experience happens regularly to me
once or twice a month.
I know I am not unusual with regard to having these types of experiences.
Over time
I actually figured out what is going on.
There's a scientist from Canada
(yeah Canada, he can't help it)
who developed a helmet
that emits electromagnetic waves
that can be pinpointed and directed to specific areas of the brain
to stimulate responses associated
with particular brain regions.
(true story look it up yourself)
In the past
when we didn't have the luxury of such
amazing technology
we would have to cut a person's skull open
and poke various regions of their brain
with a metal stick
to observe what kinds of responses were possible
from direct contact.
For instance,
we learnt that if you poked the visual regions
of a person's brain
they would see things that were not readily apparent
to the people poking with the metal sticks...
And such was the case
with regard to different sorts of experience
and perception
with respects to different regions of the brain.
(i.e. sound, sexual stimulation, etc.)
Now this guy from Canada
(a pseudo country, no coincidence)
has taken this approach
to a new level in that
we can now prod our brains non invasively
with an electro-magnetic helmet.
One of the more interesting things he found
while poking people's brains
is that there is a region in all of our brains
that when stimulated
elicits an experience
that there is an 'other' present in the room.
Even when all the brain-poking scientists leave the room
and poke
the unsuspecting bearer of this new-age helmet
can't but help but experience
I must inform you at this point
that all people poked electromagnetically
with this amazing brain helmet
in the particular region of our brain
that makes us respond to
and experience some imaginary presence
of an 'other'
are also flooded with a sense of fear.
In other words
this magic button hard-wired in our brains
that makes us experience the presence of 'another'
is not pleasant at all.
It is frightening
to say the least.
I have my own personal theory regarding this
hard-wired button in all of our heads.
It has to do with duality
and the essential
an organism in a dualistic environment
must possess in order to survive.
And further
I will somehow tie
this intuition of mine
into my regular dream experiences
of dreaming my physical environment
in a state of paralysis
while some 'other' is breaking into my
house as I struggle but cannot move.
And further,
I may explain why this Canadian scientist
who wishes to patent his amazing helmet
and sell it to anyone who wishes to purchase it
will never be allowed to sell it.
(at least in the United States)

A good question,

credits roll, even
when no one else remains. I don't like it when the floor is sticky with
spilled soda, though. Have you ever stayed until they tore down the
building? Have you ever taken a ride in a time machine, and
watched the buildings rise and fall,

text: I am getting so sick and tired of my Droid lately it makes me wish I never signed a two year contract. The past week or so my main problem is not being able to answer my phone!!! My Droid will ring, I try and slide the bar over to answer it and it won't slide!!!!!!!!! It happened several times today and I missed several calls. I have not installed any new apps either. Other problems lately have been my phone freezing up and having to restart my Droid. Now when I restart it, my phone says no SD card detected then it says to confirm. It used to only say that when I hooked it up to my computer, but the SD card is there and I can read it fine, don't know why I keep getting that message. There are also a lot of other buggy issues I cannot think of at the moment, but those two are the main ones that happen on a daily basis. I know most of you are going to say I probably need to do a factory reset, okay I am thinking of doing that, but I shouldn't have to!!! I mean are the apps I am downloading causing this, then shouldn't they not be in the app store? I shouldn't have to do a factory reset everytime my Droid acts buggy. I'm really pissed at the Android system right now and I don't have much faith in it anymore. Just needed to vent since there is nothing I can do about getting another phone for TWO years!!! BTW I do have 2.1 installed.
