DMX told TMZ he has finally kicked the drug addictions that kept him behind bars for years — and he has his children to thank.
"Everyone was taking advantage of me with my finances, trying to put me in the direction to fail. I have 10 kids. I have to drive them in the right direction, so I let the cocaine go."
The rapper born Earl Simmons says he is working through his addiction from a spiritual place, and looking to avoid the negative pitfalls that have sent him spiraling out of control in the past. "I am on a spiritual road to do right in my life. I am leaving out all negativity and going to stay on the right road to positive," he said.
"When [DMX] first came to my church he looked broken, sad, and full of struggle. Now you see a dramatic change. You see that the drugs and alcohol aren't in his life," said Simmons' pastor.
It was great to see DMX killing it at the BET Awards. If he is able to fight off those old demons, his sobriety could serve as a beacon of light for those who feel defeated by their addictions. I pray he wins.

While I find the numerous pre-order bonuses frustrating as well, I would hardly consider a couple different skins and weapons "lots of content." These are apparently for Germany though, so maybe North America's will be different. We shall see I suppose.
Eh, I don't really mind the planet scanning too much. I find it almost zen-like at times, especially with that kickass tune playing in the background. That being said, I am really glad you start out with 50,000 of each element once you start up another playthrough. I definitely wouldn't want to start from scratch every damn time.
I really dug the Ebony Armor, although I wish I didn't have to take it off whenever a non-enemy was around for fear of inadvertently turning him/her hostile. Oh well.
...pretty sure he's not half Mojave.
"...adding elements from the indie scene..."
If you wanted to ignore her, why didn't you? Even if you let her on your ship, you could still ignore her. Besides Traynor mentioning her name a couple times, Allers is pretty much nonexistent. I just wonder why people are bitching about a character that can, at worst, take up very little of their time.
As for your final point, it doesn't take a genius to realize she probably isn't that important. She's a character (poorly) ...
I don't understand the outrage with Diana Allers. She's completely ignorable. If you don't like it, don't allow her on your ship.
Considering that confidence in Bioware seems to be at an all time low, DA3 is going to be met with serious scrutiny and skepticism. No pressure, guys.
That's exactly my point. If an ending needs more content just to make sense of things, then to me that's a crappy ending.
Didn't one of the Bioware guys promise an ending that wasn't just "A, B, or C?" Huh.
If it needs epilogues, how can it be a good ending?
Holy shite, that just made my day. Conrad's reaction when he activates the Crucible is absolutely priceless.
I don't often say this here, but this was a very good read - well written and entertaining. Anyhoo, I was always irritated with the Council's reluctance to believe/trust Shepard, especially concerning the Reapers' existence after Sovereign attacked the Citadel. You were THERE dammit!!
Is it just me, or are there a lot fewer actual dialogue options in ME3? I felt like there was more dialogue that didn't involve my input than in the previous 2.
I definitely see a ton of vanguards playing. Oh well, my engineer is an assist machine, so as long as we are doing well as a team I can't complain.
Well, I don't think there are any games/series I care about as much as Mass Effect, so, yup I'm still pretty disappointed.
How exactly was the leveling system in Skyrim convoluted? It was really pretty simple, especially if you played Oblivion.
You think the gameplay sucks, therefore you give it a 9.5? Uh, what?
I think both versions would look way cooler without Shepard on the front. I'd much rather just see the pretty background.
Well this is definitely good news. The AC soundtracks are all top notch.

text: Helping my clients stop smoking is probably one of the easiest things that I do. Once someone has decided that they want to stop smoking or go back to being a "non-smoker" the process is quick and relatively simple. It is easier than many other issues because it is so unhealthy. No one can really dispute that fact and unlike eating, you do not need to smoke to live. The process involves working with the individual to determine the reasons behind their habit. We also reframe the "addiction" to nicotine. Then I record a powerful "stop smoking" CD while I hypnotize the client. This works incredibly well. The typical result is that the individual stops smoking that day and then comes back for at least 1 reinforcement session.

Product Description
With twenty stories ranging over every human emotion and situation, Tales of Love and Loss collects many of Hamsun's short stories translated into English for the first time.
Knut Hamsun published only three collections of short stories in his lifetime, and abandoned the form entirely in 1906. Yet these stories form a fascinating commentary on the novels he was writing at the time (including 'Hunger') and contain echoes of his much later work. Containing humour, melancholy, tenderness and rough lawlessness, the variety of his stories is constantly refreshing and sparkling with psychological insights.
Knut Hamsun is recognised as one of the greatest literary figures of the twentieth century. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1920 for his novel Growth of the Soil.
"The most outstanding Norwegian writer since Ibsen."
'Times Literary Supplement'
"A rare understanding of human nature comes through, expressed in a measured, elegiac and lyrical prose."

The heat shock protein HSP70 affects cancer signaling via its interaction with co-chaperone BAG3
Date Issued2016

HSP70 plays an important role in cancer development. However, the molecular role of HSP70 in cancer is poorly understood. Previous work from our laboratory demonstrated that HSP70 is essential for initiation of Her2-positive breast cancer by controlling oncogene-induced senescence. Here we demonstrate that HSP70 is critical for both initiation and progression of mammary cancer. Interestingly, the role of HSP70 in cancer development did not involve its canonical function as a molecular chaperone. Instead, HSP70 had multiple effects on signaling pathway components related to tumor initiation, growth, and metastasis, such as FOXM1, HIF1, NF-𝜅B, and SRC. HSP70 regulated signaling networks via association with the co-chaperone, BAG3, a scaffold protein with capacity to interact with multiple key regulators of cell signaling. Using SRC as a model, we demonstrated that association with HSP70 attenuates BAG3's interaction with the SH3 domain of SRC. We also show that an HSP70-interacting small molecule, YM-1, can specifically inhibit the HSP70-BAG3 signaling axis, leading to selective inhibition of tumor growth in vivo and in vitro. This compound mimicked the effects seen with depletion of HSP70 in a dose dependent manner, providing a proof of principle that the association of HSP70 and BAG3 is needed for regulation of these pathways. Additionally, a second generation of YM-1 analogs, JG-98 and JG-84, were shown to be more potent than YM-1 while acting in a similar fashion on signaling pathways. A less potent analog, JG-36, was not able to modulate these pathways as effectively. These studies demonstrate that the HSP70-BAG3 axis is a major regulator of cancer signaling and suggest that targeting the interface between HSP70 and BAG3 is a novel therapeutic approach.

The little darlings seem to have settled in. Not without having another go inside here last night though. Somebody got into the lobster pate' that was left over from cocktail hour and ate it all! The empty dish was still in the fridge! The remaining cracked wheat crackers were gone as well. The empty box was on the floor in front of the fridge. Another sock has disappeared and I had to look for two hours to find my cell phone ... which had been turned off! By that that time I was dreaming up Woolfin recipes.
They're all free now, and seem to have taken residence in the doghouse. They've been hiding all day because it's been raining. Woolfins hate to get wet. That hurricane must have really degraded them ... poor things. Not only do they get so heavy they can no longer move quickly, but after they tend to stink. Not a very pleasant odor either. There's no polite way to describe it but it just smells like wet sheep. The weather is supposed to clear up tomorrow so hopefully I'll be able to get a couple of shots of them in their new digs, where they can come and go as they please, and there's plenty of forested land to roam about in.

Recruiting on a Limited Budget: Proven Low and No Cost Tools and Approaches (HR Compliance)
Venue: Online Event
Location: Palo Alto, California, United States
|Event Date/Time: Feb 09, 2012
|End Date/Time: Feb 09, 2012
Recruiting is a costly process in both time and money. "Cost per Hire†metrics show clearly what costs are involved in the recruiting process and can also indicate areas that can be reduced or eliminated by deviating from the traditional methods used. Whether you are filling one position or expanding significantly, there are alternative methods to attract and find excellent hires at a lower cost.
This webinar explores ways companies can recruit and hire through low and no cost methods which can result in reduced recruiting expenses and at the same time, more successful matches to their open positions. When budgets are tight, creativity and ingenuity pay off and there are many new ways to find the best candidates. Many of these options also are more targeted and therefore save time as well as money.

If you use the Jabber Service with the Adium client, and log in at multiple locations, Adium will log the second instance of the user in and out.
The solution is to rename the Resource for the Jabber Client. Each instance of the program will require a new Resource name, which is stored locally on the machine.
- Go to Adium > Preferences.
- Under Accounts, select the account and click Edit.
- Under Options, change the Resource name to anything that is not the resource name of the other machine. The default resource name is "Adium".
- Click OK.
Note that this issue only appears with Jabber. Gaim will not exhibit this problem.

Artist Brian Tolle has produced a series of silicone houses. The droopy abodes may not make for comfortable living, but they certainly are fun to look at.
The rubber buildings can be hung on a coat rack, draped over the side of a shopping cart or squished into a laundry hamper; Brian Tolle gives a whole new meaning to the term "mobile home." This is a nice feature considering that fundamental axiom of real-estate: location, location, location! Of course, they are not actual homes, but they would make for interesting pieces to decorate one's home with.
Brian Tolle's works are clad in bright, vibrant colors one would not normally associate with such buildings save for the most funky neighborhoods. Brian Tolle has created interesting works in miniature; his designs would look just as interesting blown up to the full scale.

Space-inspired study unravels mysterious constellations of the oceans
ATLANTA – Vital scientific information about whale shark behavior, biology and ecology is being uncovered by an unlikely source – ecotourists and other citizens. Thanks to modern advancements in technology and the burgeoning field of "citizen science," new information about gregarious and mysterious whale sharks is being revealed in a study slated to publish on November 29 in BioScience.
Whale shark habitat spans the globe, making long-term research over wide geographic ranges a difficult challenge for whale shark researchers. To address this challenge, researchers harnessed modern technology, creating an online photo database called Wildbook for Whale Sharks and enlisted the help of ecotourists and citizens across the globe to upload any images of whale sharks they happened to see or encounter anywhere in the world. Photos of nearly 30,000 encounters representing 6,000 individually-identified sharks across 54 countries over 22 years has given scientists a rich data set to analyze and better understand the nature of this endangered species that has long been misunderstood and understudied.
Through this effort, researchers have now identified 20 whale shark aggregation sites globally, an increase from 13 identified prior to enlisting citizens in this scientific effort.
"This effort is increasing our knowledge of whale shark abundance and geographic range, trends in site fidelity and frequency," explained the study's lead author and Director of ECOCEAN Inc. Dr. Brad Norman. "That information is vital for prioritizing conservation areas for the species."
Analysis of the images provided data on sex-ratio bias, site fidelity and aggregation, hotspot sites, size and migration patterns of the animal–details that improve scientists' understanding of the species and help conservation efforts to protect them and their environment.
"Enlisting citizens to participate in science has helped us uncover several mysteries of the whale shark. We are piecing together a puzzle of both the ecology of this endangered species and the areas that are most critical to them," said Dr. Alistair Dove, Vice President of Research and Conservation at Georgia Aquarium, a co-author on the study.
The long-term observation project has provided enriched scientific knowledge of the species including:
- Spot patterns in whale sharks are unique and long lasting, and provide a method of individual identification through photographs.
- Some of the most populous hotspots of whale sharks include the Ningaloo Reef in Australia, the Atlantic coast of Mexico, Mozambique and the Philippines. Year-by-year observation of the population in these areas and lack of population in others suggests to researchers how illegal fishing and lack of conservation can impact aggregation.
- There is a strong male bias at the majority of sites, showing an overall 66 percent male population globally.
- For the most part, whale sharks aggregate around the same hotspots from year to year.
- Few individual whale sharks move between countries.
Engaging citizen scientists in photo-identification of whale sharks tells scientists more than the nature of the species, but also identifies an association between ecotourism activities and how they may affect the appearance and return rate of whale sharks. It can also identify how areas of high fidelity are addressing conservation techniques, showing how those techniques may be applied on a larger scale. Finally, a broader analysis of the environmental variables in the aggregation sites can inform the long-term impacts of climate change in the movement of the whale sharks.
The study's authors encourage other directed research programs using citizen science to dedicate their efforts to photo-identification sampling at times and locations separate to regular tourism activities to encourage consistency and avoid data gaps.
Georgia Aquarium is a leading 501(c) (3) non-profit organization located in Atlanta, Ga. that is Humane Certified by American Humane and accredited by the Alliance of Marine Mammal Parks and Aquariums and the Association of Zoos and Aquariums. Georgia Aquarium is committed to working on behalf of all marine life through education, preservation, exceptional animal care, and research across the globe. Georgia Aquarium continues its mission each day to inspire, educate, and entertain its millions of guests about the aquatic biodiversity throughout the world through its hundreds of exhibits and tens of thousands of animals across its seven major galleries.

ECOCEAN is a not-for-profit research organization dedicated to conserving the world's biggest fish, the whale shark. ECOCEAN scientists have been working on whale sharks at Ningaloo Reef since 1995 and have contributed to the global protection of whale sharks through reports to the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species and the United Nations Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). ECOCEAN also promotes conservation of whale sharks and the marine environment by engaging members of the public in its ongoing "citizen science" projects. ECOCEAN was instrumental in setting up the world's largest whale shark photo-identification library, the Wildbook for Whale Sharks, which encourages members of the public to get involved in whale shark research by submitting their photos.

- Berzerkus tour
- Zakk Wylde talks about Playing Ozzfest
- Children of Bodom, Clutch, 2Cents

Zakk Wylde, American guitarist who founded Black Label Society. Zakk Wylde was part of Ozzy Osbourne (1987-2007) & Pride & Glory. His BLS DVD Boozed, Broozed, and Broken Boned went Platinum. He appeared on numerous Ozzy Osbourne albums which went more then 12X Platinum in total.
Zakk Wylde Interview with Jason Saulnier September 21, 2010
Transcription of the interview
Jason: How do you prepare your set list these days?
Zakk: We'll just look at some songs that we've played for years, we get rid of them and we throw in some other ones. Or we'll just get on the Black Label Site and ask people what tunes they want to hear. With us, it's eight records. I can't even imagine how the Rolling Stones put a set list together [Laughs]. We play some of the songs we haven't played in a while, and then we obviously have to play some of the staple ones. But, it's cool, man.
Jason: I just got this great album Order of the Black, where did the title come from?
Zakk: With Black Label, we like to order everything blackened, like chicken our steak our fish. I just came up with the title because Black Label, we don't have fans, so it's just like one whole gigantic family. The whole thing is in keeping with that whole theme, it's like a religious type movement and everything like that. It's its own religion. So, I just said, that's the reason why we'll be Order of the Black.
Jason: And the artwork on it is it mostly a black leather type of thing right?
Zakk: Oh yeah totally, with the crucifix and everything like that, with the three spikes and everything.
Jason: Very good looking album cover. Where did you record it?
Zakk: I recorded it in the Black Label bunker. I've got my own studio on the property that's awesome. It's exceeded my expectations. Not only did we record the record there, but we mixed it, as well. And the production on it, there's nothing we can't do in there. I can actually take the donuts there, wrap them up, box them up and ship 'em out. So, it's killer.

Jennifer Lawrence Covers 'Flare' June 2011
Jennifer Lawrence rocks a Gucci dress and belt with a Louis Vuitton bracelet on the cover of Flare magazine's June 2011 issue, on newsstands in Canada on Monday (May 16).
Here's what the 20-year-old actress had to share:
On being a wild child: "My mom [says] – Jenn wasn't allowed to play with the girls at recess. She had to play with the boys because she's too rough."
On her athletic build: "I'd rather look a little chubby on camera and look like a person in real life, than to look great onscreen and look like a scarecrow in real life."
On Oscar parties: "I went to the Vanity Fair [Oscar] party for a cool 15 minutes. And then I took off. I'm like a little old lady. I'm always tired around midnight! I mean, it was cool to see Elton John, and I met Billy Crystal, which was amazing, but yeah, I'm mostly just kind of uncomfortable."
On the success of Winter's Bone: "I cried when we got into Sundance. I never saw any of this coming."

Next up form my Illamasqua hauling craziness is Fat Pencil in Perverse and Medium Pencil in Strumpet.
Scored these during the big summer sale, each for GBP5 which is a good price IMO.
Fat Pencil (Perverse) on the left is pale gold shimmer (indeed it is), however on the official Illamasqua swatch it looks much darker.
Medium Pencil (Strumpet) on the right is a classic cherry red. And truly it is! Even tho I don't wear red lipstick (they unflatter me), one cannot live without makup for a killer red lip! :D
Both pencil applies nicely, no dragging whatsoever. =)

Dear Sr. Raquel & healing ministry,
I wish for my beloved brother's healing who at this moment felt too much pain. I would like more people praying for Kuya Ben. Since December 2010, he was diagnosed with liver cancer,stage 4 aggressive. Sis.Racquel, I have prayed constantly and had requested many of my friends to do the same. Today, I have been alarmed by bad news that Kuya Ben has been seriously ill, and his wife and children at his bedside in the witching hours.
Maybe I was sent to you as I was searching miracles and suddenly from nowhere I was directed to your website. I felt goosebumps & sensed its a message from heaven. All my praying may lack the special ardor and divine guidance —I believe few are chosen so I felt inadequate.
I hope your prayers can be so powerful because I have the intense love for a good brother who'd been always an anchor especially in my trying times. I also wish a prayer for my Mom who took badly the condition of my brother. Please…please have mercy God and bring healing to my Kuya Ben. Lay healing hands upon him and hear us through intercessional prayers of Sis.Raquel's healing ministry..

Floyd Mayweather Sued For $200k Over Skating Rink Shooting
Defendants Quincy Williams and Damien Bland filed a lawsuit in the District Clark County Court in Nevada yesterday (August 16th).
Williams, who once worked for Mayweather, became estranged with the world champion boxer around 2009, after he sent a text message stating he hoped that the undefeated Mayweather lost next match.
The men crossed paths at the Crystal Palace Skating Center, where Mayweather allegedly threatened Williams' life.
According to the lawsuit, Floyd Mayweather ordered his bodyguard to shoot at Williams' BMW, which was struck by at least six bullets, as it left the skating rink parking lot.
The lawsuit also claims that associates of Mayweather have been making verbal or physical threats to Williams and Bland since the incident.
Floyd Mayweather is accused of conspiracy, assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress negligence and liability.

Two Ways Of Life Contrasted
Text: Psalm 1:1-6
There are basically two groups in this world - the Godly and the ungodly.
A.) The Godly Have A Hate Life.
Even God has a hate life. Proverbs 6:16-19
God hates sin because He loves the sinners!
To Love God is to Hate Sin! Proverbs 8:13
1. The Godly Hate Godless Thinking: Psalm 1:1, Matt. 10:16
2. The Godly Hate Lawless Living: Psalm 1:1
There Are Two Major Things That Keep Sinners From coming To Jesus As Saviour: ONE: Immoral Practices, TWO: False Doctrine Concerning Jesus Christ And Salvation. Because if we do, we will be "standing in the way of sinners." , II Corinthians 6:14-18, II John 7-9
3. The Godly Hate Careless Speaking: Psalm 1:1, Col. 4:6
B.) The Godly Have A Love Life. Psalm 1:2
1. The Godly Love The Inspired Word: The Bible. II Timothy 3:16-17
2. The Godly Love The Incarnate Word: Jesus Christ. John 1:1, John 1:14
3. The Godly Love The Embodied Word: The Word God in us and fleshed out.
What is not incarnational is not redemptional, and what is not redemptional is not transforming.
C.) The Godly Have A Testimony Of Christian Character.
1. They Have A Life Of Stability.
Psalm 1:3 "he shall be like a tree planted"
2. The Godly Have A Life Of Vitality.
Psalm 1:3 "by the rivers of water,"
3. The Godly Have A Life Of Fertility.
Psalm 1:3 "that bringeth forth his fruit in his season;"
4. The Godly Have A Life Of Consistency.
Psalm 1:3 "his leaf also shall not wither;"
5. The Godly Have A Life Of Godly Prosperity.
Psalm 1:3 "and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper."
A.) The Ungodly Live The Opposite Of The Godly Who Operate With Christian Character.
Psalm 1:4, "The ungodly are not so:"
Everything we preached about the Godly, the ungodly does the opposite. Psalm 1:3 No Stability, No Vitality, No Fertility No Consistency, No Prosperity
B.) The Ungodly Are Unstable And Will Be Counted As "Chaff".
Psalm 1:4 (Contrast) Ephesians 4:14
Hebrews 12:1
C.) Judgment Is Coming To The Ungodly.
Psalm 1:5-6

Rainbow (Noon Universe)
This article has multiple issues. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page. (Learn how and when to remove these template messages)(Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Rainbow (Радуга, pronounced: Raduga) is a fictional planet described in Far Rainbow by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky. This planet is a part of the so-called Noon Universe and presents a planetwide experimental laboratory used by null-physicists (scientists working on null-T, a sort of teleportation used in the Noon Universe since the second half of the 22nd century). It isn't clear when it was discovered but, presumably, somewhere between 2146 and 2154 AD.
Rainbow is a very comfortable planet with a moderate climate, a calm atmosphere, little seismic activity and a rather phlegmatic native fauna. There is only one continent (in the Northern hemisphere) and some small archipelagos (in the South one, which is covered with an ocean). Remarkably, the coastal line between the southern ocean and the northern continent roughly coincides with the equator.
Rainbow didn't have a native intelligent species until it was discovered by Earth's explorers. Shortly after that it was "inhabited" by null-physicists, scientists studying the null-T (teleportation). The null-T was an urgent and promising problem in the 50s but it was also quite dangerous (see below, "The Wave") so the government of Earth decided to move all null-physicists to another planet where they could carry out their experiments without endangering the rest of humanity.
Rainbow is a unique laboratory-planet where all economics, industrial and agrarian sectors are aimed to support 120 scientists who work on a solution of the transport theorem. Together (null-physicists, biologists, children, tourists, null-T testers) the total population of the planet's barely ever reached 300 people. The whole planet is governed by the Council, consisting of the leading scientists and some administrators including the general director, Matvei Vyazanitsyn.
Only one town named simply Capital (the permanent residence of the Council) exists on Rainbow; all other settlements are either small villages or just observatories.
Apparently, Rainbow was also the last known residence of Camill, the last remaining of "The Devil's Dozen".
As already stated, Rainbow doesn't possess a native intelligent species, therefore its level of technological development is equal to that of Earth. But, as every normal laboratory, this planet constantly desires for expensive apparatus and measuring devices (e.g. ulmotrons) that can only be produced on Earth. Therefore, there is always a shortage on technics because of a slow delivery speed.
Null-T developed partially on Rainbow is a technology of transporting objects of any size in any direction and any distance. It is based on a so-called puncture of the Riemannian fold (прокол римановой складки) and actually goes against everything proclaimed by traditional theories of absolute space, time-space continuum and kappa-space. Nevertheless, such problem has been raised and successfully solved even though at an enormous cost.
During the study of null-T various problems have arisen and been solved. The most desperate was the Wave (see below) that even managed to divide the null-physicists in two fractions: those who wanted to keep paying greater attention to the null-T itself and those who desperately wanted to study the Wave. The second problem solved on Rainbow shortly before it has been abandoned was that any living matter sent to Earth with null-T has arrived there in form of organic cinder. Later on both this problems were solved and in the 70s null-T has already been a norm of life on Earth.
Earth and Rainbow[edit]
For some time, Rainbow has been just another Earth's colony but after the null-T problem was raised, it became a home for all scientists working in this direction. The home planet supported its laboratory with apparatus and resources and received new technological know-how in exchange.
The Wave[edit]
The Wave is an attribute of null-T. Every time a piece of material is sent through space with null-T two huge fountains of energy and material waste appear on the poles of the planet. They form the so-called "Wave", an enormous kappa-field that appears simultaneously on both poles and moves towards the equator. This Wave looks like a kilometers high black wall with a thin line of blinding light on the crest and is deadly for any kind of living tissue it touches. The scientists name four types of Waves based on their specific characteristics.
Usually the Wave wears off on a half way to the equator. If not, special energy-absorbing machines called charybdis (after mythological Charybdis from Odyssey) are used to lower the potential energy of the Wave thus wearing it off. It is also known that the Wave can disappear itself any moment for no apparent reason.
In 2156 AD Rainbow was devastated by a Wave of a new type later called P-Wave (after Pagawa, one of the leading null-physicists of the time). Nearly all adults who happened to be on the planet (including all scientists), presumably, perished. The only spaceship at that time on the planet, Tariel II (generally piloted by Leonid Gorbovsky), was only capable of evacuating children. No further attempts to reinhabit Rainbow were undertaken.

Loved it! The writing is smart. The story grabs you from the very start. You care about these characters and want to know what will happen. They all have an interesting story you want to learn. There is also a steamy love story! What more could you want?
I can't wait to follow up on who she will choose, a book you won't want to put down.
I was rooting for both guys. Hate that I don't know yet. Wanted to understand their thought process.
How do I decide??? What a great way to keep me on the edge of my seat.
*whew* usually I am a bit more eloquent in my reviews. But WHOA! I did not see this book coming. I'm blushing at one turn, mouth gaping at another. Bewildered to say the least and back again..... Just read the freaking book. You won't be sorry.
Continues the turbulent story of Christopher and Harper. When Harper confronts Christopher she meets his new business partner Sutton. Harper is frustrated by Christopher's holding of her trust fund. She cons Christopher into releasing some funds if she helps them with a business deal. A gripping, sexy read. The relationship between the three players is turbulent. I liked touching base with the characters from the previous Tanglewood books. Brilliantly crafted story that had me on edge. Absolutely wonderful!!
This story is a bit of a love triangle between Harper, Sutton and Christopher. I really enjoyed reading the dynamic Harper had with the two male characters. She had a very different relationship with Sutton as she did with Christopher. I am having a hard time picking which male I want her to end up with. One page I'm rooting for Sutton, the next it would be Christopher... This book had lots of sexual tension and by the end of the book I was an emotional wreck!! Looking forward to the next one! Skye really knows had to keep your attention. Arc copy from author for an honest review

It's been a hectic month here, not unlike many other's, I'm sure!
After the November fire dramas, we backed up for an incredibly busy December, as you do! I've really not had time to stop and catch my breath, but I feel like the light at the end of the tunnel is upon me...
Due to the recent budget cuts for TAFE, my job has been in limbo for some time, however I received The Word early in the month that my job (as well as all fixed term contract staff at our TAFE) had not survived the restructure. Right up until last week there was uncertainty if there was to be any positions available to even apply for, but finally we were all called in for an interview and I managed to secure one of only 5 positions on offer...phew.
This news naturally meant a degree of certainty around 2013, and that I don't have to start afresh, again. I won't be in the same Department as I am now, which is sad as I have grown to love the team over the last two years, and made some great friends. That said, I will be working with a new group within the Institute and having met them last week, I'm really looking forward to it. At least knowing the systems and the general protocol means the transition is not as disruptive as it might have been had I needed to find employment elsewhere.
Before all this though, we had our annual pilgrimage to Meredith Music Festival at the start of the month, where I did a fair bit of what was affectionately dubbed as "Drunk Knitting"! Having learned from previous years, I took two projects. One was "knitting" knitting (a triangle shawl) and the other was "drunk" knitting - a project so simple, a few beers or Pink Flamingos would not impede it's progress...in theory!
The pattern is the Slouched Tuva - a basic 4-row pattern, with 3 of those being stocking stitch in the round - how can you go wrong?! (there may have been a few tinking moments on the Tuva...Pink Flamingos get stronger as the afternoon goes on)
"Knitting" knitting didn't even see the light of day, which in hindsight was a very wise move.
Coming back from Meredith, I then had one week left of training before we wound up the derby year. It was very successful season for the league both internally and externally, including the introduction of a brand new home team! I have much pride that we have been able to grow the league so much this year that we are in the position of needing another team to accommodate all the amazing bouting skaters we now have onboard. In addition, all our current teams were reshuffled to spread the experienced skaters across three teams. My team managed to remain Charmers, which I'm pretty stoked about.
I'll be finishing up as League President at the beginning of next year too, having decided not to run for a third term. I have thoroughly loved the role, and I still look at what we've achieved in the last three years with a massive sense of awe, but it's a huge job and it's time for me to focus on other areas of derby, particularly my own skating development. There are so many strong talented women in our league, I know someone will ably take the reins and lead to the next phase.
Then, my girl finished her first year of high school on a great note, receiving an award for Academic Excellence for her year level at the school awards night this week. I could not be more proud of this amazing young woman I have been blessed with, having taken to high school like a duck to water, and finding a gorgeous group of friends (all of whom were up on stage collecting their own awards, I might add). She had a bit of a rough finish to primary school, so to watch her thriving in this learning environment fills my heart with joy.
Christmas shopping was a low-key event this year, given the uncertainty surrounding my employment. It proved a welcome relief though, paring things back and purchasing smaller but thoughtful gifts for my closest. Friends and I made agreements for no gifts, but some home-made yums would be ok. Books and plants became good choices for quite a few people, as did nice bottles of wine. Really, it's what it should be anyway, shouldn't it? Simple but thoughtful?
With all that behind us, Lily and I finally finished work/school on the 20th and collapsed on the couch for a day!
One day off and I start to get restless though, so today after lunch I went looking for a new knitting project; something a bit different, but still quick and gratifying.
To that end, I decided to finally give fair isle a go! and guess what? It's not as hard as I imagined!!
The yarn is more deep stash - Bendigo 8ply Classic (crepe!) - that I can't remember how long I've had. 4, maybe 5 years?? The main colour is far more teal that this photo shows up, and the contrast is a lovely pale grey. The pattern is a freebie off Ravelry - Marius hat
This is a great first-time fair isle pattern, in my opinion. There's only two colours, and the longest strand is 7 stitches, but for the most part they are only 2-3 stitches long which makes achieving tension a bit easier.
I also tried the technique of holding each yarn in separate hands, so one yarn is knit kinda like Continental, I guess? It made controlling the two yarns much more pleasant than my previous attempts at multi-colour knitting, I must say. I usually can't stand all the tangles, even just with stripes!
This one will be a gift for a friend, even though it's not really hat weather here in Melbourne. That said, it's Melbourne, so give it a day or two and it probably will be, despite being Summer. Plus, it *may* just be the new team's colours, shhh ;)
(I'm a Melbourne girl, born and bred, so I'm allowed to diss the weather)
So that's December so far for us. Now, we just need to get through Christmas and New Years' and I think we can finally relax, yes? I'm looking forward to days at the beach, which is now just walking distance from our house, and lots of taking our time...with everything.
What are you all planning for the Summer?

Weekly links March 31: inequality across firms and within households, measuring farm labor, should we fund research by lottery, and more…
- In the Harvard Business Review, Nick Bloom discusses how a lot of inequality is getting driven by differences between firms: "companies are paying more to get more: boosting salaries to recruit top talent or to add workers with sought-after skills. The result is that highly skilled and well-educated workers flock to companies that can afford to offer generous salaries, benefits, and perks — and further fuel their companies' momentum. Employees in less-successful companies continue to be poorly paid and their companies fall further behind"
- Vox EU piece by Brown, van de Walle and Ravallion summarizing their work in two recent papers on the difficulties in targeting the poor "about three-quarters of underweight women and undernourished children are not found in the poorest 20% of households. This is consistent with evidence of considerable intra-household inequality"
- IZA GLM policy brief on measuring farm labor: "Traditional recall-style modules overestimate hours worked per person per plot by a factor of 3.4. This recall bias is driven by the mental burdens of reporting on highly variable agricultural work patterns"
- Should grant funding just be decided by lottery after screening out the bottom? Shahar Avin makes the case at the LSE Impact blog. And think of all the research on grant effectiveness that can then be done!
- Nice debate this week between Lant Pritchett on the CGD blog who argues based on his professional experience that "Never, ever, ever has "chickens versus cash" arisen as an issue at all, much less as the remotely possible "best investment" in research" and Chris Blattman who issues a counter-challenge back to growth theorists "Lant's right and he's wrong. We have to focus on the big picture and growth as a society, but I think there's a strong argument for directly tackling the worst poverty now. Especially because we know how to do that pretty well. And we could do it even better pretty easily. More so than figuring out the secret to growth. I have a hard time imagining the $15 million research project that would affect country growth rates one bit."
- Call for papers: the 2017 PEGNET conference centers around understanding national inequalities and how to address them.

The Emily Dickinson Museum
One of the first stops on our itinerary for the weekend to "the other side of MA" was a visit to the Emily Dickinson Museum in Amherst MA. My English lit classes were a VERY long time ago - so before we left I did a bit of research to refresh my poetic memory. I quickly found that one of my mom's favorite quotes to her bookworm daughter (me!) was Emily Dickinson's "To travel far, there is no better ship than a book."
It was the perfect way to start this "girl's getaway" travel weekend that my friend Gayle and I, both avid readers, had embarked on!
|The Emily Dickinson Museum
"The Homestead"
The Museum offers several different guided tours of the Dickinson houses as well as an audio tour of the outdoor grounds. We began our visit to the Emily Dickinson Museum at the Tour Center which is part of the original 'Homestead' where Dickinson lived. The tour center includes a free exhibit about the publication of Emily Dickinson's poetry which is also located in the Tour Center. The Tour Center is open to the public - but tours beyond the lobby charge a fee.
|About Emily Dickinson
From the Emily Dickinson Museum
Tours are scheduled regularly throughout the day. Fees (see https://emilydickinsonmuseum.org/tours) and tickets are sold in the tour center's lobby on a first-come, first-served basis. Tour size may be limited and visitors cannot reserve tickets in advance of the day of the visit unless a group tour has been pre-arranged. The Museum is happy to arrange tours for groups (parties of six or more people). Reservations for group tours must be made at least two weeks in advance and are subject to availability.
For additional information about Group Tours, please visit https://emilydickinsonmuseum.org/group_tours
|Emily Dickinson Museum
Unfortunately we weren't allowed to photograph anything beyond the museum's center but the tour we chose was titled "This Was a Poet" (from Dickinson's poem) and included the following:
- a 45-minute guided tour of the Homestead (Emily Dickinson's house)
- history of the home and Emily Dickinson by discussing her family, her education, and her poetry.
- the parlors, library, and Dickinson's bedroom
- an informal participatory reading of a few Dickinson poems
The museum notes that this tour is especially suitable for visitors who are new to Emily Dickinson, including families with small children.
|Emily Dickinson Donor Statue
"I'm nobody, who are you?"
The line is from a short lyric poem
by Emily Dickinson first published in 1891
We especially found interesting the fact that the home was sold to a local Amherst family where it remained a private residence until Amherst College, recognizing Dickinson's growing literary prominence, purchased it for private tours, and a faculty residence. In 2003 the museum was created and it is currently in the process of renovating as well as refurbishing the home with artifacts consistent with the times. While none of the clothing or furniture in the rooms are Dickinson's they are true to the style of era.
|I loved this beautiful Radiator
found in the Museum's Center
There is still much work to be done to bring the homestead to true museum quality stature - so the museum holds many fundraising events to help with costs. For information see https://emilydickinsonmuseum.org/events
For those visiting from Connecticut, the museum is about a 1.5 hour drive from my native New Haven CT and about an hour from Hartford CT. The museum is great place to visit for Dickinson fans when touring local colleges, other museums, and area attractions.
The area is a great destination for a day trip or a weekend getaway! For more area attractions visit http://visithampshirecounty.com/

It is on this background that Youth Alliance for Development wishes all final year students sitting for this year`s Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) and West African Senior Secondary certificate Exams (WASSCE) the best of success throughout the season.
We humbly urge all candidates to comply with all the laid down rules and regulations guiding the writing of the exams to avoid cancellation of papers and other unforeseen circumstances.
Youth Alliance would want to use this opportunity to draw the attention of parents and teachers to motivate and psyche their children throughout this period.
While commending government for the interventions which were instituted to improve the performance of the BECE this year we wish to draw the attention of government to the numerous challenges which were encountered with the school computer placement program and the stress parents had to go through getting admission for their wards.
We expect the Ministry of Education and the Ghana Education Service to start putting the necessary mechanism in place to deal with the difficulties we had with the computer placement last academic year.
Finally, government must design a stop gap program for BECE candidates who fail to meet the placement so that they can enter into skills development programmes.
It is in the view of Youth Alliance for Development that government takes a second look at the current grading system which does not permit students with grade D7 to be admitted into universities and other tertiary institutions. This situation prevented many people from entering universities last academic year.
Once again we say best wishes to all candidates.

I just got back to Bangkok after spending 2 weeks in Europe. Feeling completely jet-lagged. I could not sleep at night, but would be more than happy to sleep now… in the middle of the day.
Just watching CNN, and realising that we are heading into the next catastrophe. Without a doubt, we will have Trump as the next president of the United States. I would not be that bothered, except that the US is a global power after all, and his election will have the major consequences for all of us, regardless of where we live. Somehow not having lots of good feelings about the future… I am actually quite scared, to be honest. Just wondering whether we should all be preparing for the 3rd World War, and accepting it that we may not be able to live in peace, as the world, for much longer? Brrrr… I hope that I am just pessimistic.
Still trying to remain cheerful somehow. It seems like it will be Obidos, a little village in Portugal that will become my future base (given that things will not turn out to be that disastrous in the world, that is…). Look how amazing the place seems to be: www.obidos.pt.
I will be here in Bangkok for two weeks or so. Will watch the developments in the USA anxiously, while preparing for my trip to Bangladesh, which is likely to happen still in November.
Bangladesh, here I come!
Quite unexpectedly, I have been asked to hold a position of an interim head of office for Bangladesh. The arrangement is due to start in mid-November and carry out for 4 months. I am not saying 'good-bye' to Thailand though. The plan is that I will still be in Bangkok often, e.g. 3 weeks in Dhaka and 1 week in Bangkok every month. Exciting times!
Travelling to Europe
Tomorrow morning, I am off to Europe. I will first be in Brussels for work, then travelling to Lisbon to visit my newly adopted country, and finally for some meetings in Oslo. It will be a hectic trip… all needs to fit in within 2 weeks. It should also be fun too!
Thank you!
As may you know, recently Tahir has been awarded with an official UNHCR refugee status. This means that after a very, very long waiting period, he technically is eligible to ask third countries for the resettlement out of Thailand (given that Thailand does not offer any legal provisions for him to settle down here).
For Tahir, the UNHCR awarded status is not only highly practical but also symbolic. The international organisation, helping the refugees, has officially confirmed that Tahir's life in Pakistan is endangered and that the country (Pakistan) does not offer necessary protection to live there peacefully and happily. Personally knowing Tahir's story, I only can rejoice and applaud!
Following the news from UNHCR, many, many of you have stepped up in trying to help us in various ways to secure Tahir's safe future. While, I hope that there will be opportunities to write more about it in the future, today, both Tahir and I would like to thank you all for generosity and solidarity that so many of you have shown in our efforts of 'restarting his life'. The list of people who have helped is very long, and includes those of you supporting the case financially, but also in so many other ways: trying to find ways to keep Tahir safe here in Thailand, or finding ways to get him to safety in Australia, Poland, or Canada.
We have not yet managed to achieve our ultimate goal, e.g.: secure his safe stay in Thailand or his resettlement to the third country, but we will continue working towards the successful resolution as hard as we can, and on as many fronts as it is only humanely possible. With your support, we trust, this will be possible. Today however it is time to cherish the moment! We would like to underline that your recent offers of help in various forms have been humbling and heart warming! You are all a proof that people are wonderful to one another!
THANK YOU so much for all what you have done!
Stuck in Moscow
This trip has been going far too smoothly… Finally, on the last stretch to Bangkok, Aeroflot has done it… they announced that the plane will leave Sheremietievo 2 hours late. Well, good news is that I have a moment to write to you briefly.
Last few weeks have been very busy and exciting. I should write more properly on each of it, but given that writing at the airport is not so comfortable, just some highlights:
1. We are at the end of the application process for Tahir's relocation visa to Canada. A pre-condition for that was to fundraise at least €8.000 for a bond/deposit to be paid to the Government of Canada. Pleased to tell you that through amazing generosity of many of you, we have managed to collect all the money (and more)!
2. The Triplex Simulation (response to a disaster) has been very interesting. I met lots of new and interesting people (and some old friends too). And yes, Norwegian countryside is amazingly beautiful!
3. Poland continues to depress me. The recent developments in the country make me hate my own state. On the other hand, there is some amazing resistance to some of the most depressing total abortion plans by the amazing women… Go on and discover all about #blackprotest.
4. October will be busy. I will just get back to Bangkok to travel to Brussels soon after. All will be documented and reported!


text: We had the pleasure of shooting this amazing couple who had just reunited in New Orleans. Long distant relationships are always such a challenge, but when we got the call from Michelle and Emrys we were excited to be the ones to capture their rendezvous engagement photoshoot. Maybe there is something to the saying, "Distance makes the heart grow fonder." This sweet couple is getting married soon and right now they are separated by an ocean. Michelle is working in Africa and Emrys works here in the states. The photoshoot was full of spontaneity and passion for each other. They were swept up in their love for each other the whole time. It was truly beautiful, and the photography shows all.

Sabbat Worlds Crusade: 63rd Elchingen Hussars
From the Lexicanum article:
"The exact origin of the Blood Pact is unknown, but it is generally held they originated some 3,000 years ago on a planet known as Ghourra, sometimes pronounced Gaurra, at the edge of the Sabbat Worlds.
At that time, the tribal society of Ghourra was ruled by a feudal overlord, or Gaur (sometimes referred to as "Ghour" or "Gour"). The Gaur surrounded himself with an elite priesthood who conducted the ritual observances by which the Gaur made tribute to his god, Khorne. This militant-priesthood evolved over time into a bodyguard force which practiced its martial skills as diligently as it had once conducted its simple bloody rites.
As the Gaur's influence grew and spread to neighboring worlds, it was this bodyguard force that led his conquering armies. It soon became a mark of respect to be 'bloody-pacted" to the Gaur. Numbers grew, recruited from vassal worlds, and the bodyguard force eventually became an army in its own right; the current Blood Pact.
Uniquely, every single member of the Blood Pact (and Imperial tactical estimates suggest there may be as many as three quarters of a million Blood Pact warriors) is personally inducted into service by the Gaur himself. To prove his allegiance in blood to both the Gaur and the Blood God, each aspirant ritually gashes his hands on the sharpened edges of the Gaur's battle armor.
The Blood Pact were first encountered by the Imperium during the Sabbat Worlds Crusade. An oft-disputed area, the Sabbat Worlds had first been colonised as part of the Imperium in M35, when Chaos was driven from the sector by the original crusade of Saint Sabbat, after whom the sector was named. In the middle period of M41, a vast Chaos host commanded by the warlord, Archon Nadzybar, swept through the Sabbat Worlds and tore them out of Imperial hands. Nadzybar's host was not one single army, but in fact a cooperative alliance of many, each one led by its own warlord, known by his title of Magister. These warlords became Nadzybar's lieutenants, and the names of many live in infamy: Anakwanar Sek, Enok Innokenti, Sholen Skara, Heritor Asphodel, Nokad the Blighted and Urlock Gaur of the Blood Pact.
In 755.M41, the High Lords of Terra charged Warmaster Slaydo with the task of raising a liberating army and retaking the Sabbat Worlds. Slaydo built a formidable Crusade and eventually took on a major part of Nadzybar's strength at Balhaut. Though Slaydo himself perished in the battle, this was a famous Imperial victory. Archon Nadzybar was slain and his forces put to rout. After protracted infighting, a new Archon emerged from the ranks of the Chaos warlords to take Nadzybar's place: Urlock Gaur.
Although Urlock was never counted among the most charismatic or tactically brilliant of Nadzybar's lieutenants, his position as commander of a sizable, disciplined army within the Chaos forces allowed him to beat the other Magisters in the brief power struggle following Nadzybar's death.
Gaur's Blood Pact had been encountered in combat during the early years of the Crusade, but never properly identified. However, once he became Archon, the Blood Pact became a backbone element of the Chaos host. It is believed many other arch-enemy units and divisions, wishing to prove their loyalty to the new Archon, converted to the Blood Pact. Within just a few years, the Crusade forces came to recognize the Blood Pact as elite infantry of the arch-enemy.
This recognition was aptly demonstrated at the Battle of the Akkorite Peninsula on Belshiir Binary in 771. A vital and much-contested world due to its promethium wells, refineries and processing depots, Belshiir Binary was the site of a notable Blood Pact victory. A force of two hundred Blood Pact troopers, supported by just four stalk-tanks and two Loxatl brood groups, cut off and annihilated a force of three thousand Imperial Guardsmen. The outnumbered Blood Pact force was commanded by an officer called Vesh Etogaur (the second word possibly indicative of rank, as in 'demi-gaur' or colonel) whose strict command led to the Pact force lying in baking heat for three days without breaking cover until the Imperial forces had moved into the cone of their ambush. The resulting combat lasted twenty-two minutes. No members of the Guard unit survived the slaughter, and the Akkorite Peninsula refinery remained under Chaotic control for a further fifteen months.
The Blood Pact, originally consisting of soldiers from the worlds around Ghourra, is a diverse organization. As the Blood Pact rose to prominence amongst the forces holding the Sabbat Worlds, many lesser war bands and forces submitted to their rule and were absorbed. The leaders of the Pact willingly encourage the integration of other Chaos war bands, especially traitor Imperial Guard regiments and soldiers. The Blood Pact is also allied with alien races and mercenaries, such as the Loxatl. The Blood Pact is a highly organized army, consisting of soldiers rather than blood-crazed cultists. They often have support in the forms of plundered tanks, which are often looted from defeated Imperial armies or manufactured in captured Forge Worlds. They are drilled and trained in warfare techniques to a standard of competence at least equivalent to the Imperial Guard. They have excellent (often captured) communication systems, and a firm chain of command, meaning that they can be confidently deployed with tactical precision. A Blood Pact General is called an Etogaur. The Blood Pact can hit specific targets or accomplish specific missions, and individual warriors have the intelligence and field training to operate independently, if necessary, for the Pact's interests. This is what makes them so dangerous. They are not mindless fanatics; they are excellent battlefield soldiers in the sworn service of Chaos.
Certain elite or veteran sections of the Pact form the so-called Death Brigades, representing the finest and most ruthless storm squads in the Blood Pact. Though few in number, the Death Brigades are often encountered at the spearhead of assaults, as the private company of senior Chaos leaders, or deployed on specialist missions, and are the most dreaded of all Blood Pact units."
From the Warhammer 40000 wiki:
"The Blood Pact ranking system is completely different from that of the armed forces of the Imperium. The rank of a soldier, unlike in the Imperial armed forces, is stated after the individuals name. For example, the warrior Mabbon Etogaur is a soldier named Mabbon and Etogaur is his rank in the Blood Pact. Higher ranks use the Archon's traditional Blood Pact rank, Gaur, as the base, to symbolize the rank-holder's increasing closeness to the Pact's master. Known ranks, and their rough Imperial equivalents, include:"
- Sirdar (equivalent to junior regimental commissioned officer, such as a Lieutenant)
- High Sirdar (equivalent to senior regimental commissioned officer, such as a Captain)
- Damogaur (equivalent to senior regimental commissioned officer, such as a Major or Colonel)
- Etogaur (equivalent to High Command rank, such as Brigadier General, Major General, Lieutenant General, General, etc.)
- Gaur (supreme commander of the Blood Pact; currently Urlock Gaur)
In addition to military ranks, the Blood Pact embraces the Sanguinary Worlds civilian/bureaucratic/paramilitary ranks as well. These include:
- Excubitor: Paramilitary occupation law enforcement officer. Seemingly a separate military force that has attached itself to Chaos forces on occupied Imperial planets.
- Ordinal: Government bureaucrat in charge of local organizations, or local militia commander.
- Senior Ordinal: Government bureaucrat in charge of large scale organizations (often continent and/or planetary in scale); military rank equivalent to Colonel, but only found in use in occupation forces.
- Pater: A senior cult leader, often at the diocese level. Military rank equivalent to general.
- Magister: Senior civilian leader, often in charge of whole departments and/or . Military rank equivalent to Field Marshall, Full General, General of the Army, etc.
- Archon: civilian and military commander-in-chief ("overlord") of all Chaos forces of the Sanguinary Worlds and allied forces. Equivalent to a Sector Lord or Governor. Urlock Gaur holds the distinction of being both the Archon of the Sanguinary Worlds and Gaur of the Blood Pact.
Unit Organization
In the field, the Blood Pact tends to field mixed-type units of infantry and armour supported by cult shock troops, loxatl xenos mercenaries, and/or psykers known as "Gore Mages." Their units are mostly organized along Imperial Guard standards, but three unit types stand out in particular.
- Philia: A sworn brotherhood of troopers, and the smallest unit fielded by the Blood Pact. Roughly 30-50 men, equivalent to platoon size. in the field, these tend to be supported by one to three Stalk Tanks.
- Death Brigade: An elite unit of heavy shock troops. Organized into regimental units of roughly 10,000 soldiers, with heavy armor support.
- Loxatl Brood: Three to twenty xenos mercenaries (often of a single family group led by a matriarch). Broods are organized into larger units known as a clutch, often 200+ in size.

The Slovak water brand approached us to make a series of films which would stand out amongst all the water brands which claim to be the most pure.
So we came up with the idea to have animals "direct" the spots themselves, thus leaving nature "untouched" by humans. We strapped specially designed GoPro cameras to animals and let them direct and shoot the films themsleves.
Film Director: Simon Wagen
Role: Concept & Art Direction
The first spot in the series shows how nature makes the purest form of all natural Rajec's own Cranberry Water

On November 7, 2016, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) released a revised in the form of a proposed notice with comment period. The notice will be published in the Federal Register on November 9, 2016, and comments are due no later than February 7, 2017.
CMS has not substantively revised the agreement since it was initially published in 1991 at the inception of the program. See 59 Fed. Reg. 7049 (Feb. 1, 1991), and the "sample" copy posted on the CMS site. The agreement was administratively updated in 2001 solely to reflect the name change of the Health Care Financing Administration to "CMS." We have prepared a blackline, showing the proposed agreement marked against the 1991 (2001) agreement, to assist in your review.
CMS explains that it proposes to revise the agreement to reflect intervening legislative and regulatory changes (specifically referring to the Covered Outpatient Drug Final Rule, which became effective April 1, 2016), as well as "editorial and structural revisions," such as referring to OMB-approved data collection forms and electronic data reporting. CMS indicates that once issued in final form, manufacturers participating in the program and those newly joining or seeking reinstatement would have to execute the revised agreement. Only manufacturers newly joining the program or seeking reinstatement would be subject to verification of their proposed covered outpatient drug list. CMS also states that once issued in final form, the agreement will not be subject to revisions based on negotiations with individual manufacturers.
Proposed revisions to the agreement include the following:
- Definitions - The outdated definitions from the 1991 agreement are replaced with references to the Medicaid statute and the Final Rule. Other changes include:
- The definitions of "Depot Price" and "Single Award Contract" have been deleted, although these terms are used but not defined in the Final Rule.
- The term "State Drug Utilization Data" replaces the former term "Medicaid Utilization Information" and has been revised to, among other things, address managed Medicaid utilization, and to carve out "units dispensed to Medicaid beneficiaries that were purchased by covered entities through the" 340B Drug Pricing Program.
- Manufacturer's Responsibilities
- Updating the list of drugs: CMS includes in the proposed agreement its existing guidance that manufacturers should ensure their drugs are listed electronically with the FDA, so that CMS can use that information to verify covered outpatient drug status.
- Subsequent URA changes: A new sentence addresses URA increases resulting from "changes in product, pricing, or related data," but does not make reference to decreased URA amounts. A statement under the "Dispute Resolution" section from the 1991 agreement that addresses rebate payment increases as well as reductions has been deleted.
- CMS Guidance: The 1991 agreement requires manufacturers to comply with implementing regulations after "actual notice to the manufacturer." The proposed agreement requires compliance with "agency guidance" as well and eliminates the reference to prior notice.
- Reasonable assumptions: The proposed agreement adds the requirement to make the reasonable assumption available upon request and modifies the reasonable assumption description (as shown in the blackline).
- Notice of bankruptcy: Manufacturers are required under the proposed agreement to notify CMS within 7 days of any filing of bankruptcy.
- Secretary's Responsibilities - The 1991 agreement refers to audits of AMP and BP, but the proposed agreement permits audits of all "manufacturer information" reported under the Medicaid statute, which may include AMP units, ASP, WAC, and sales at nominal price.
- Penalty Provisions - An added provision indicates that the government's remedies under the agreement are not exclusive.
- Dispute Resolution - The 1991 agreement includes a discussion of CMS compliance actions against states that fail to comply with the coverage requirement for drugs or where manufacturers can show a pattern of inaccurate utilization reporting. That section is entirely deleted in the proposed agreement.
- Nonrenewal and Termination - A new provision indicates that manufacturers on the OIG exclusion list are subject to immediate termination from the program.
- General Provisions
- Statutory or regulatory changes incorporated by reference: The proposed agreement incorporates "changes in the Medicaid statute or regulations" automatically.
- Assignment of liability after ownership transfer: The 1991 agreement provides that a transfer in ownership of the manufacturer results in the automatic assignment of the agreement to the new owner. The proposed agreement adds that "any outstanding rebate liability" is automatically assigned to the new owner as well.
