ALBANY -- A judge has ruled that federal prosecutors may keep secret details of their dealings with J. Felix Strevell, a former barber who pleaded guilty to looting a high-paying state job that he had landed through political connections.
A recent ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Gary L. Sharpe allows federal prosecutors to keep sealed, for at least another year, court records containing information about Strevell's cooperation with the FBI and Internal Revenue Service.
Two years ago, prior to sentencing Strevell to six months home confinement and five years probation, Sharpe granted a request by attorneys for the Hearst Corp., which owns the Times Union, to unseal court records related to Strevell's cooperation. But the judge's ruling had a caveat that key details of the court records would remain sealed for one year -- at the government's request -- in part because it could jeopardize ongoing investigations.
No one has been prosecuted as a result of Strevell's cooperation, which helped him avoid a prison sentence.
Last week, the judge approved a second, one-year extension that could keep the records sealed until March 2012.
The records sought by the newspaper relate to seven debriefings Strevell gave federal agents after his guilty plea in April 2007, two years after he was indicted.
Strevell, 49, of Castleton, pleaded guilty to a felony count of honest services wire fraud. He admitted using his politically appointed position as the former head of the Institute for Entrepreneurship in Albany to fleece the now-defunct agency of $111,500. Federal prosecutors said Strevell also set up jobs for friends and relatives and that the actual losses may have topped $200,000.
Strevell's sentence included repaying $111,500 in restitution to the state of New York. Court officials this week said Strevell has paid back just $4,100. Federal prosecutors recently obtained authorization to garnish Strevell's estimated $12,800-a-year state pension, payable monthly when he reaches age 55 in about six years.
The debriefings with Strevell took place six years after he quit his $263,000-a-year state job as revelations of financial abuse surfaced.
People familiar with the debriefings said Strevell, who had strong ties to top state Republicans, provided information about alleged corruption within the ranks of local and state government, and also about mortgage fraud.
"He provided names, incidents, locations, relationships, things that were said to him and that he observed,'' Strevell's sentencing memorandum states. However, the next four lines of the document were redacted by the judge before the narrative continues: "The high-level nature of many of the persons against whom Mr. Strevell provided information is a cause for anxiety beyond ... the run-of-the-mill white collar case."
Federal prosecutors have sought the continued sealing of Strevell's cooperation details while acknowledging the information was not very useful, in part, because so much time has passed.
It's not unusual in New York's Northern District for investigations involving public officials and white-collar crimes to languish for years, records show.
Rex Smith, vice president and editor of the Times Union, said the newspaper intends to challenge the latest sealing order.
"Felix Strevell's crime was misuse of New York taxpayers' dollars, and there's every reason to believe that he avoided prison by cooperating in the investigation of some other misuse of taxpayer dollars," Smith said. "But that has so far been concealed from the citizens who were victimized by that corruption. Our argument is simply that the people have a right to know."
Assistant U.S. Attorney William Pericak declined to say why federal prosecutors have taken extraordinary steps to prevent public disclosure of the details of Strevell's cooperation.
"We are acutely aware of our responsibility under the First Amendment to make public everything that can and should be made public and we take that responsibility seriously," he said. "There are countervailing considerations which have been recognized by the court. ... We will look at this every year to see whether circumstances have changed."
The murky Institute for Entrepreneurship, Inc., a quasi-public agency, was developed by the State University of New York to support small business efforts in New York state.
Strevell, a high school graduate, joined state government in 1990 as a state Senate employee and later became deputy secretary of state for business and licensing.
Used the institute's credit card to pay $7,500 in personal expenses, including a family vacation at Disney World.
Fraudulently gave himself a $95,000 salary increase on top of his $124,000-a-year salary.
Improperly had the institute pay $9,000 for his father, a Florida resident, to take two trips to China as part of a "delegation" to foster New York business.
Sold his used recreational vehicle to the institute for $64,000; did not disclose his interest to the board of directors.
Strevell, 49, is in line to receive a $12,800-a-year state pension beginning Aug. 24, 2016.
He had strong political ties to former Republican Chairman William Powers as well as former U.S. Rep. John Sweeney, R-Clifton Park. Strong supporters of the institute also included the Pataki administration and former Senate Majority Leader Joseph L. Bruno, a Brunswick Republican convicted of honest services fraud in an unrelated case.

An artist's illustration of a dangerous asteroid headed for Earth.
To date, astronomers have spotted more than 8,000 near-Earth asteroids that are at least 460 feet (140 meters) wide — big enough to wipe out an entire state if they were to line up our planet in their crosshairs. That sounds like good progress, until you consider that it's only about one-third of the 25,000 such space rocks that are thought to zoom around in Earth's neighborhood.
A near-Earth object (NEO) is anything that comes within about 30 million miles (50 million kilometers) of our planet's orbit. The overall NEO population is almost incomprehensibly large; there are likely tens of millions of such space rocks between 33 feet and 65 feet (10 to 20 meters) in diameter, Johnson said.
In 2005, NASA got some further instructions from lawmakers: Spot 90 percent of all NEOs 460 feet and larger by the end of 2020. It's clear at this point that the agency will not meet that ambitious deadline. And getting such a detailed handle on the NEO population will require the launch of a dedicated asteroid-hunting space mission, according to a& NASA-commissioned study that was published in September 2017.
The space telescope for such a mission would ideally set up shop at the sun-Earth Lagrange point 1, a gravitationally stable spot about 930,000 miles (1.5 million km) from our planet, and scan the heavens in infrared light using a telescope at least 1.6 feet (0.5 m) wide, the study found. Such a mission's observations, combined with the contributions of ground-based telescopes, could probably bag the required number of 460-footers in a decade, Johnson said.
NASA is already working on such a space project — a concept mission called the Near-Earth Object Camera (NEOCam). NEOCam was one of five finalists for the next launch opportunity in NASA's Discovery Program, which funds relatively low-cost and highly focused missions. NEOCam ended up missing out on that slot — NASA picked two other asteroid-studying missions, called Lucy and Psyche — but it did get another year's worth of funding.
There's still hope that NEOCam will fly someday, Johnson said.
An artist's illustration of the proposed NEOCam spacecraft, which would hunt for asteroids that could pose a threat to Earth.
NASA and its partners around the world are working on potential solutions to this problem as well. For example, NASA aims to launch a mission called the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) in 2020. If all goes according to plan, in October 2022, DART will slam into the 500-foot-wide (150 m) moon of the asteroid (65803) Didymos, which itself measures about 2,600 feet (800 m) across. This impact will change the orbit of "Didymoon" in ways that Earth-based telescopes should be able to detect, NASA officials have said.
DART will be a demonstration of the "kinetic impactor" deflection strategy. NASA had also planned to test the "gravity tractor" technique — using a fly-along probe to gradually nudge an asteroid off course via gravitational forces — in the coming years as a part of the agency's Asteroid Redirect Mission (ARM). But the White House zeroed out funding for ARM in last year's federal budget request, and that mission is no more.
Such preparatory work shouldn't unduly alarm the public, Johnson stressed; the odds that a big asteroid will strike Earth are very low on a day-to-day basis.
"These are very rare events," he said. "But they're also an event that, if we don't find this population, can happen any day on us."

Hi there- I got my Ooma today and hooked it up- after an hour and a half, I still have a flashing red flower and 4 blue lights (1 / 2 / trash / mail)... I am still waiting on the phone for support to answer the phone... what do I need to do?
Details, please, What is your setup? What devices are attaché to it, and in what orde? DSL or cable? C"mon, my crystal ball is low on charge right now.
Do I just need to leave it alone for a while?
... and how do I get it to ring through my regular number until I port it?
If ooma assigned a new/temp number, you shouldn't have anything connected to the wall port of the ooma. Plug your home phone to the phone port and you should have service via the new/temp number. Your regular line should not be impacted by your ooma setup.
You got phones connected to your regular line?
do I need to run a split at the back of my cordless to have both the Ooma and the line from the wall connected?
If you got a new number or a temp number from ooma, you don't want to connect the wall port to your wall jack.
Phone connected to your ooma device will ring if someone calls your new/temp number and phone connected to your wall jack will ring if someone calls your regular number.
If you want to just use the phone connected to ooma, you can forward your regular number to your new/temp number.
Given you have this feature with your regular line, call fowarding usually works like this: *72 + your temp number including the area code.

Everybody’s talking about Donald Trump, Jr. . .so let’s talk about something else for a bit. There’s a baby on life support in Britain. If the life support is removed, he would quickly die. So the current discussion is when someone should be allowed to die. SEE UPDATE at the end of this story.
It’s another case like Terri Schiavo, the Florida woman who was in a coma for fifteen years as relatives split about whether life support should continue. There were 14 court appeals and many groups weighed in, including right-to-life, right-to-die, and disability rights groups.
The current case is not as clear cut. Typically, liberals line up with “die with dignity,” while conservatives support life, regardless of quality of life. In this case, Pope Francis and Donald Trump are on the same side (maybe for the first time, ever). In fact, Pope Francis has offered to give the baby a Vatican passport, to allow him to go to Rome for experimental treatment there.
The Pope is reportedly considering giving terminally ill Charlie Gard a Vatican passport so he can be treated at its hospital. . .
Legally, in Britain, parents do not have 100% control of their child, so a government guardian has been assigned to determine what is best for the baby. That guardian has decided that the baby is on a one-way trip to pain and disability, and to force him to continue by artificial means is just cruel. It should be noted that parents in America are sometimes overruled, as well, for example, when parents don’t believe in any medical treatment. A judge can then decide that a child’s welfare is more important than parents’ religious beliefs.
A British court gave the parents 48 hours to prove that it would be good for the baby to continue.
Mr Justice Francis ordered Charlie’s parents to provide new evidence that would show an untested therapy would be effective. The High Court judge gave the couple until 2pm on Wednesday to produce the material ahead of a further hearing on Thursday morning to decide the 11-month-old’s fate.
The hospital insists Charlie’s body is growing but that his brain is not, proof they claim that the little’s boy’s condition is deteriorating and that he has suffered irreversible brain damage.
Here are the eight questions the British court will have to decide.
• Is Charlie in pain?
• Is the fight to keep him alive prolonging his suffering?
• Can his quality of life improve?
• Does Charlie have irreversible brain damage?
• Does Charlie open his eyes?
• How does Charlie’s case affect other children being treated at Great Ormond Street Hospital?
• Who will care for Charlie if he does have treatment?
What is the disease? ABC News offers the details.
• What is Mitochondrial Depletion Syndrome (MDS)?
MDS is one of a suite of rare disorders that affect the mitochondria –- often described as the tiny powerhouses of the cell. Certain genes ensure that these mitochondria are healthy and produce the energy the cells need. Genes come in pairs, one copy comes from the mother and one from the father. When a baby has MDS, it means that both copies received from the parents for this particular gene –- the one that keeps mitochondria healthy –- are defective. The result is progressive muscle weakness and devastating multi-organ damage.
• How Rare Is It?
This disease is very uncommon, with perhaps fewer than 100 cases in the range of related disorders reported worldwide, according to a 2014 study.
• What Are the Signs and Symptoms of MDS?
Initially, development may appear normal; however, before these children reach 24 months of age, they usually start exhibiting certain signs of muscle weakness — for example, weakening of eye muscles leading to droopy eyelids and facial weakness. These children may also exhibit signs of organ failure, such as brain and nervous system problems leading to seizure activity, hearing loss, liver damage and difficulty walking, talking, and swallowing.
• What Is the Prognosis for Children with Mitochondrial Depletion Syndrome?
The prognosis, unfortunately, is very poor. Many children with this condition begin having lung muscle weakness early in life. Normally, this progresses rapidly to respiratory failure and death within a few years of onset. The most common cause of death is infection of the lungs.
What is unusual about this story is that Fox News’ conservative contributor, Charles Krauthammer, has weighed in on the side of the British hospital. It was an interview on Fox, with Tucker Carlson.
Conservative commentator Charles Krauthammer said Monday that efforts to keep 11-month-old Charlie Gard alive are part of a “cruel hoax” by some in the medical field.
During an interview with Fox News host Tucker Carlson, Krauthammer said that while Gard’s parents have the right to decide whether their child continues to receive treatment, they are wrong to prolong his life as he battles a terminal illness.
“The merciful thing to do … would be to remove the tubes and allow the child to die, and to end the suffering,” Krauthammer said.
“I think this is a cruel hoax, this holding out of hope for a disease that is utterly incurable,” Krauthammer said.
“There are people, this happens every time you have a terrible case like this, some hospital or doctor will claim he’s got some kind of new treatment. I don’t believe a word of it,” Krauthammer said.
Krauthammer speaks with some authority, as he suffered a diving accident in 1972, was paralyzed, and was dependent on a breathing tube.
KRAUTHAMMER: “I think there are two approaches here, and I don’t think it has to do with life in the abstract. It has to do with little Charlie and his own welfare. If I were the judge that comes in and has to make a ruling, I would allow the child to die.
He can’t see, he can’t hear, he can’t speak, he can’t swallow, and he has no control to move, and he has terrible epilepsy.
I have had a breathing tube in [me] for weeks on end as he does, and it is a life of agony and great distress. I can protest as an adult. He can’t.
There was a new development. Two hours into today’s (Thursday’s) hearing, the parents stormed out of the courtroom.
Yates interrupted [The judge, Mr Justice Nicholas Francis] as he said that the parents had said they would not want to prolong Charlie’s life in its present state, only if there was hope of improvement. “I never said that!” she exclaimed from her seat behind her barrister.
The judge attempted to clarify that one or other of the parents had said it, but both rose and left the court. Francis offered to stop the hearing until they returned but it continued for a short time before breaking for lunch. . .
It’s clear that the hearing will not finish today (Thursday), but the parents’ outburst did not help them. They are saying that they would want a brain-dead being have his heart kept beating artificially, even if it meant pain and no chance of survival without being tied down.

While they might disagree on economics and foreign policy, Trump and Pope Francis have very similar views and are on the same side on almost every social issue. The Pope doesn’t hate poor people quite as much as Trump does, but they both hate gay people. They are both massive misogynists who are outspoken about opposing human rights for women. They both adopt a Cristocentric view of the world, although the Pope might be more sincere in his beliefs. They both condemn persecution of Christians, while ignoring or outright supporting any other form of persecution, other than paying shallow lip service to Jewish causes.

MIRS is the leading international robotic solutions company for mining and heavy industries.
Design, development, and integration of: industrial robots, manipulators, robotic tools, auxiliary equipment, control systems, energy sources, structural components, sensors, and software.
MIRS, a Chilean company specialized in the development of robotic solutions for mining and heavy industry, has just started the second phase of the robotic implementation project at the port terminal of Impala Terminals, located in Callao, Peru.
To date, more than 2,500 trucks have been sampled by this technology, called MI Robotic Sampler, which allows automating a process that is usually done manually. Its main advantage is that it enables the accurate extraction of representative and incorruptible mineral samples, eliminating error and cross-contamination. In addition, it is a safer and more transparent process, both for producers and for buyers and intermediaries.
The Robotic Sampler for Truck from MIRS, MI Robotic Sampler, was successfully implemented in the port terminal of Impala Terminals Peru, a subsidiary of the transnational Trafigura and a leader in specialized logistics services for storing, handling and analyzing mineral concentrates. After more than 2,500 trucks have been sampled by this system, Cristiaan Landeo, CEO of Impala Terminals Peru, explains the advantages of its implementation.
The world’s largest robotic system, the MI Robotic Sampler, was presented on October 20 at the “MIRS Mining Robotics Day 2017: Consolidating Productivity” event, which was attended by authorities and experts, both national and international, from the mining industry.
Industrie 4.0 or “the fourth industrial revolution” is the mega-topic in industry. There are not yet any standards for it, nor is there a uniform definition. Buzzwords such as “smart factory”, “smart production” or the “Internet of Things” only describe what the factory of the future could look like. Companies are expecting the intelligent networking of all production-relevant components to deliver a quantum leap in productivity, flexibility and efficiency, thereby safeguarding competitive advantages. The robot will play a key role in this.
The rising demand for industrial robots across different industry verticals, regions and applications is propelling the industrial robotics market during the forecast period 2014 to 2020. Globally, Asia Pacific is analyzed to be fastest growing market largely due to the research and development infrastructure growth in countries such as Japan, Australia, China and India. The adoption of robotics in small and medium enterprises (SME’s) is further expected to bolster the industrial robotics market in the Asia Pacific region. Additionally, the demand for industrial robots across major application segments such as electrical, consumer electronics, and automotives is further expected to fuel growth over the forecast period 2014 to 2020. Countries such as Italy, Germany, France, and the U.K are expected to be key contributors to the growth of industrial robotics market in the European region. In North America, Mexico is expected to offer tremendous potential across varied application sectors in the coming years. Thus, the market for industrial robotics is expected to witness healthy growth across varied industry verticals and regions.

Teenager Osian Clark tells Liz O’Reilly how baking healthy snacks for his own dogs inspired him to set up an online business to help other animals.
Fox Phood was launched at the beginning of Ramadan offering yummy dog and cat treats, all home-produced by the 13-year-old St Christopher’s School student.
He explains: “Because I like cooking, my mum and dad both brought me up within the food industry. And we prefer to have homemade healthy food, so I decided to also cook for our dogs so they can eat healthier.
“I have two dogs, they are a brother named Flash and sister named Goldie, who will turn three in October. I used to have another dog —his name was Fox. But, unfortunately, due to old age, he passed away last January at the whopping age of 16! So, in honour of him and his grumpiness all through my childhood, I named the company after Fox and Phood because I wanted to state clearly it was a food-related business and I spelt it in a funny way to create a more urban chill feeling.
Osian also makes cupcakes, which are a bit more substantial, and hands them out when he goes with his mum Weena to feed stray dogs and cats near his home in Saar. And, should you desire a birthday cake for your pampered pet, that’s possible too.
By selling his doggy cookies and kitty nibbles, Osian aims to raise funds for animal welfare organisations such as the BSPCA and Tony the Dogfather as well as highlighting the plight of the island’s stray population.

The cause of Lymphedema Praecox is mutation of the FOXC2 gene.
With stage one the tissue is still much like normal tissue, its just satiated with fluid. As the swelling continues and as he fluid changes to that protein-rich fluid referred to a lymphorrea, you enter into stage two. In this stage, the tissue become very similar to a grape (best image I can think of). Already it is becoming much more difficult for antibiotics to reach bacteria and it becomes less response to the decongestive therapy.
Acute Cellulitis is one of the complications of lymphedema. The patient may not be aware of the source of the etiology. Sometimes it may be a cut, mosquito bite, open wound or other infection in the body. The first sign is increased or different quality of PAIN involving the lymphedema limb. The patients often describe this as a “flu like symptom or an ache” involving the Lymphedema arm or leg. This is usually followed by sudden onset of ERYTHEMA(redness, red streaks or blotches) on the involved limb. The HYPERTHERMIA(lymphedema limb becomes warm, hot) will follow and the patient may experience the CHILLS and even HIGH FEVER.
The early intervention and treatment with antibiotics will resolve this condition (it usually takes one week of antibiotics). Only a Medical Doctor will be able to prescribe the Antibiotics, thus a consultation with a doctor is necessary. Severe Cellulitis may require Inter venous Antibiotic treatment and hospitalization. Again, elevation of the affected limb is important.
The treatment for leg lymphedema is much the same as treatment for arm lymphedema. The preferred treatment is decongestive therapy. See also manual lymphatic drainage mld complex decongestive therapy cdt. However, there is an important exception and that is pneumatic compression pumps should not be used in leg lymphedema.
During the course of treatment, the leg will be wrapped in compression bandages after the treatment session. Upon completion of the treatment, compression sleeves and leg garments will be prescribed. There is one final and critical area pertaining to the treatment, control and management of lymphedema, and that is exercise. Not only is it vital for our over all health, it helps in weight control and is important for the movement of lymph fluid through our body. No matter the stage of lymphedema, underlying medical conditions or age, everyone of us should have a plan for exercises for lymphedema. Sometimes too, the process we must go through to get our treatment covered is maddening to say the least. You made need to learn how_to_file_a_health_insurance_appeal to reverse a coverage or treatment denial and you may even have to learn the process how to file a complaint against your insurance company with your state commissioner.

What to do, what to do…. there's a looming construction deadline in your future, but your work crew is woefully inept when it comes to the finer points of excavation. You've got your kid's college tuition riding on whether or not the foundation for this new casino goes in on time - and no one in sight who can get the job done.
They call them excavation contractors.
See, in the old days, "excavation" was synonymous with "dirty, dangerous, low-paying work". In fact, it was mainly immigrants and others seen as expendable who got to do the digging. Happily, that's all past. Rapid scientific advances in civil engineering, as well as cultural refinements mean that, in addition to excavation now falling under the auspices of construction work (and, as a result, no longer just a job for "those OTHER people"), jobs that used to take months now take only days. However, there is one thing that hasn't changed in a very long time: Not many people are competent enough in the fields of construction (and math - yes, math) to complete such projects. Moreover, they don't want to! So, where does that leave you? After all, that hole isn't going to dig itself…. which is why you should get on the Internet, or find a phone book, and look up "excavation contractors". Excavation contractors are the guys who can help you make the right decisions and employ the right people / companies for your excavation needs, and just as importantly, finish your projects on time and under-budget. In short, no matter the size or purpose of the hole you want dug in the Earth's crust (swimming pool, skyscraper foundation, it's all the same to them!), they'll make it happen. On a related note, if you should happen to own a piece of land with accompanying mineral rights, these guys are going to be your new best friends. If this applies to you, make sure you remember to ask them about it!
Excavation equipment (backhoes and things of that nature) are widespread, popular, and ideal for any excavation projects you might have, at least the ones in relatively open areas. However, if you don't know how to drive one, they won't do you much good. Luckily, excavation contractors specialize in finding workers whose joy in life is to pilot heavy machinery. See how nicely that works out?
Excavation contractors are the generals of the construction world. They're responsible for hiring, firing, and overseeing every worker who so much as picks up a hammer on your work site. In practical terms, good excavation managers mean you never have to set foot on the project site, and yet, when you DO decide to swing by, your project will be done, and done well. By contrast, bad / unfit excavation managers are… well, let's just say you should save yourself the time, and just throw your wallet into the nearest trash can.
Listing every single thing quality excavation contractors are good for is impossible. They're just too valuable! The bottom line is this: Good excavation contractors are out there - all you have to do is get in touch with one or two of them, and watch your construction project flourish. Happy hunting!

If you get hurt on the job, it’s important to let your employer know immediately and seek medical treatment right away.
You also need to talk to a qualified workers compensation attorney as soon as possible.
Why is this necessary? Why not just let your employer’s insurer pay whatever they think is right?
Here’s the reality: Trying to recover workers comp benefits without a lawyer can result in unnecessary delays or even an outright denial.
For one thing, the workers comp system is a complex web of regulations that is hard to navigate on your own. Second of all, your employer and their insurance company do not always have your best interests at heart.
Let’s take a closer look at why you need a good workers comp lawyer on your side.
Even if you don’t think your injuries are bad enough to qualify for benefits, a workers comp attorney will have the objectivity to verify whether this is truly the case. And it costs you nothing to schedule a consultation.
Processing a workers compensation claim involves an overwhelming amount of work and is very difficult to handle by yourself, especially when you need to focus on recovering from your injuries.
Workplace injury claims involve many more steps and red tape than similar claims.
If you have suffered a permanent disability your attorney will know how to gather the evidence needed to prove it.
Your employer’s insurance company may require a second opinion in order to verify the severity of your injuries.
Depending on your circumstances, you may be eligible for long-term Social Security Disability benefits or disability compensation for a workplace injury.
Determining this requires extensive time-consuming research and in-depth understanding of legal jargon. Your attorney will know the difference and how the claims process differs for each one.
You may feel that your relationship with your employer is good enough that they’ll take care of you in your time of need.
But no matter how polite your boss is when talking to you in person, they still have to think about the bottom line and how your claim will cause their insurance premiums to go up.
The unfortunate truth is that your employer and their insurance company both have a vested interest in making sure you receive as little as possible, or better yet — for them, anyway — nothing at all. In some cases you may fear retaliation which could range from harassment, demotion to even firing, if you assert your workers comp rights.
Your workers comp attorney will make sure that you are protected from illegal retaliation and that the compensation you receive is based on your medical and financial needs, not the profit-driven motives of your employer and their insurer.
Even after a favorable decision, you may notice that you aren’t getting the weekly benefit checks you’re entitled to, or that your medical bills aren’t being paid, even though you are only seeing doctors authorized by your employer.
In this scenario, your attorney will hold your employer’s insurance company accountable so that you receive 100% of the benefits you deserve.
Workers comp attorney Randy Alberhasky has the experience needed to assess the facts of your case and advocate for your interests throughout the whole proceeding. He will make sure your claim is handled correctly and that you receive appropriate compensation for medical bills, financial losses and pain and suffering caused by your injuries.

Poor, poor Ulee. All she wanted was a nice home to stay in until she found her fur-ever home. Instead she came to stay with us where she just continues to be abused. Kat already told you how she got Furminated on her first day here. Well, that's nothing compared to what happened yesterday. Yesterday she got Furminated again and then she got a bath! Gasp!! Oh sure, she's having some sick tummy issues and she pooped in her crate and got poop on her paws and legs, but I'm not sure which is worse - poopy paws or a bath.
Mom and Dad say Ulee feels so nice and soft after her bath. Ulee doesn't have lots of fluffy fur like we do. Dad says now that she's eating some good ole Canidae at our house, her fur will be nice and fluffy in no time.
Anyway, I just wanted to report in and document Ulee's poor treatment at our house. I'm just glad I didn't have to take a bath too!

UK /France/ Spain, 2016, 97 minutes, Colour.
Antonio Banderas, Golshifteh Farahani, Clement Sibony, Rupert Everett, Nicholas Farrell, Irene Escalar, Allegra Allen.
This is the story of Spanish cave paintings which were discovered in northern Spain in the latter part of the 19th century, at Altamira.
The film is a French Spanish coproduction with Antonio Banderas in the lead for a Spanish audience. Spanish locations were used for the filming, the village of Altamira, the surrounding mountains and caves. However, the director is British, Hugh Hudson, best known for his Oscar-winning Chariots of Fire. There is an international supporting cast with the British Nicholas Farrell as well as Rupert Everett as a smug monsignor in the town.
While the film does describe the finding of the caves and the paintings, the initial set up is a contrast between the 19th century attitude of scientists, especially after Darwin, and the proclamation of the superiority of science contrasting with the stances of the church, the status of the Scriptures as regards creation and evolution. A pre-credit sequence shows the scientist standing at his lectern on one side of the screen, the monsignor in his pulpit on the other.
Antonio Banderas portrays Marcelino, the local grandee, benign patriarch of the family, especially with love of his daughter who is intelligent and shares her father’s enquiries and studies, even to the finding of the paintings as she stumbles around the newly-iscovered caves with a lantern.
The family expect that the scientific world will be amazed at the discovery and its contribution to Palaeolithic studies. Even the King visits the caves and is impressed. However, a local scientist is jealous, the local monsignor is aggressively antipathetic and what was meant to be a gala occasion at a congress in Lisbon turns into a condemnation of forgery, of disbelief, and of personal condemnation of Marcelino himself.
For dramatic satisfaction, Marcelino’s wife, rather tentative in her knowledge of science and support of her husband, goes to the monsignor to confession and roundly denounces him.
The film ends 20 years later, with the discovery of the caves and the paintings in the Dordogne in France, the scientist who had denounced Marcelino finally coming to Spain, witnessing the paintings and, belatedly, because Marcelino is long dead, writing an article and issuing an apology.
The film is of particular interest to a Spanish audience and their knowledge of the caves and the paintings – and the film can be seen in companionship with Werner Herzog’s 3-D documentary on the French cave paintings, Cave of Forgotten Dreams.
1.	The title? The cave paintings and their discovery in the 19th century? The initial response, accusations of forgery, ultimate vindication?
2.	Audience knowledge about the caves and the paintings? For Spanish audiences? The cast and Antonio Banderas? The world audiences?
3.	The period, Spain, costumes and decor the town, homes, the church, the countryside, the hills, the caves, the interiors? The musical score?
4.	The introduction, the opening stance and words of the scientist, the supremacy of science? The counteraction with the words of the priest, anti-science, the word of God? The arrogance of both representatives? The touch of the sanctimonious in each?
5.	Marcelino, the family, Conchita and his love for her, Maria? Work, the amateur scientist, his interest in anthropology and Palaeolithic science? Maria, an intelligent little girl, her interest, her enquiries? Conchita and her tending to be apprehensive?
6.	Marcelino, the caves, his farm assistant, opening the cave, Maria going in, the lantern, falling, finding the paintings? The claims about them? Marcelino and his good friend Nicholas Farrell? Continued support?
7.	Local hostility, the jealous scientist and continued denunciations? Seeing Maria returning from the caves, with the police and the paint? The King, hearing of the caves and the paintings, his official visit, the tribute to Marcelino, friendliness – and snubbing the jealous scientist? The hostile and condescending is?
8.	Marcelino Farrell, going to the meeting in Lisbon, the presentation of the findings, denunciations, humiliation, accusations of forgery? The fact that there was no soot on the roof of the caves – and the later sequence with the cook, the particular oil being used and its not creating soot?
9.	Marcelino humiliated, the newspaper articles, the priest and his article, that he was not a fit father? Conchita, going to the church, confession, her as a denunciation of the priest and speaking directly to him? His reaction?
10.	20 years later, the finding of the cave paintings in France, in the Dordogne?
11.	The visit of the sceptical scientist who had denounced Marcelino, his wanting to make an apology, Marcelino dead, going to the term, some retrieval of honour? The scientist and his apology in his article?
12.	19th century science, 19th century and its attitude towards the Bible? The post-Darwinian era? Science, evolution, palaeontology and the existence of cave paintings from thousands of years?

Take habits. Little habits, like cracking one’s knuckles, or burping, or sighing, or saying um in between sentences. Or bigger habits, like getting angry, or gossiping.
What would happen if we didn’t suppress the urge to do something, and we didn’t relieve the urge by doing it? What would happen if we just sat there in that, at times, uncomfortable, claustrophobic feeling, (which won’t kill us), and did nothing? What if we waited without waiting, and just settled and spread into our existence?
To suppress takes energy, and to act out takes energy – from us. What would happen if we simply didn’t use that energy? What would happen if we felt that energy, experienced it as energy, and left it alone?
What’s in between not this and not that?

Shankar Paryani, 55, who is currently absconding, has been charged under various sections of the Indian Penal Code.
Indore: The owner of the hotel, which collapsed here last week killing 10 people, has been charged in connection with the incident, police said.
Shankar Paryani, 55, who is currently absconding, has been charged with culpable homicide not amounting to murder, and attempt to commit culpable homicide under sections of the Indian Penal Code, an officer of the Choti Gwaltoli police station said.
He said that Mr Paryani was charged because he was running the 60-year-old hotel, situated near Sarvate bus stand, despite knowing that the three-storey structure was dilapidated and posed a risk to the lives of people.
Eyewitnesses had earlier told police that the hotel collapsed after a speeding car hit one of its main load-bearing pillars on Saturday night.
The collapse killed ten people, including two women, and left two others injured.
Separate teams of the police as well as municipal authorities are investigating the incident, officials said.

David Artell says that some of the first-team were given time to recover from some knocks and strains and that is why they didn’t feature at Altrincham. The likes of Shaun Miller, James Jones, George Ray and Lewis Reilly were all not involved after given time to recuperate.
Artell says that there is nothing too serious but admits he expected there to be some muscle tightness due to the increase in intensity and work load over the last 10 days.
David explained: “Not everyone was involved against Altrincham. Some of them needed a rest. It was just a precaution and you tend to get knocks and muscle strains at this stage of the pre-season.
“It happens and it is nothing too serious. They will get these little tweaks and knocks. They might roll their ankle over on the hard ground or their calves or hamstrings feel tighter than they did. It is to be expected because the work has got shorter and a lot sharper.

Norm Thurston is a "free-market guy" — a conservative health economist in Republican-run Utah who rarely sees the government's involvement in anything as beneficial.
But in a twist, the Utah state representative is now pushing the state to flex its muscle to spur federal action on ever-climbing prescription drug prices.
"This is something that a red state like Utah could do," Thurston said. "Those outrageous cost increases are not the result of the free market."
The approach: Let the state contract with wholesalers in Canada to import cheaper prescriptions and distribute them to the state's health care system.
Other states -- including Vermont, West Virginia and Oklahoma -- are following similar paths, pushing legislation that would seek permission from the Trump administration to launch their own Canadian drug importation plans.
Americans have long tried to buy cheaper drugs from their northern neighbor. But the practice is illegal.
The states want to change that. The idea is for the state health department to establish a wholesale program that buys drugs from Canada and resells them to local pharmacies and hospitals. Individual states would be responsible for ensuring that the medications are safe and that importing them does save money.
"This statute is putting pressure on the federal government to take a harder look at these questions," said Rachel Sachs, an associate law professor at Washington University of St. Louis, who researches drug price regulations.
The federal government has been slow to act on this cost issue. Skeptics say a 30-page Trump administration memo on drug pricing released late last week would likely have only limited impact.
But states, whose budgets for Medicaid and state employee health programs are squeezed by these costs, are moving forward.
In Vermont alone, drug spending has gone up by 35% from 2010 to 2015, the most recent year for which data are available.
Backers of the state plans call the strategy a no-brainer that could save hundreds of millions of dollars. They discount concerns about drug safety, arguing that drugs from Canada are made by reputable companies, often in the same facilities and by the same firms that sell them in the U.S. — but at much higher prices.
"We would be bringing in drugs intended for the Canadian market, and therefore at Canadian pricing," Thurston said.
The state measures use a framework put in place by the 2003 federal law that created the Medicare Part D program. That law says the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services can approve drug importation plans if it is convinced the plans will save money and will not create any public health concerns.
Getting approval from the Health Department, though, is likely to be an uphill battle.
In 15 years, the agency has never acted upon the 2003 law by approving any drug importation program.
Last spring, when members of Congress pushed a national bill, a bipartisan group of former Food and Drug Administration commissioners came out in opposition, arguing it would be impossible to verify the absolute safety of the drugs. That bill ultimately failed to garner a majority vote.
Alex Azar, the newly confirmed health secretary, said in a Senate hearing last fall that importation could jeopardize public health. Both the Food and Drug Administration and the drug industry echo that concern.
"Public health is at risk when the safety measures put in place by federal laws and regulations are undermined or absent through the importation of unapproved foreign drugs," an FDA spokesman said.
Some experts, though, say the bigger issue involves the savings.
Thurston pointed to Utah state analysis that suggest the state could save $70 million in the private sector, and another $20 million to $30 million in state-funded insurance programs.
But skeptics maintain that the drug industry would likely work to counter importation.
They could tamp down how many prescriptions they sell in Canada, or find other ways to discourage Canadian wholesalers from participating, said Michael Law, a pharmaceutical policy expert and associate professor at the University of British Columbia's Center for Health Services and Policy Research.
"My guess is any Canadian distributor to engage in that would find their [medication] supply dwindle quickly," he said. "The supplier systems in the United States would probably find it hard to get a [Canadian drug] supply in the long term."
Priscilla VanderVeer, a spokeswoman for the trade group Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA), said the organization could not speculate on how individual drug companies may react to importation.
Still, these state efforts could spur federal action, Sachs suggested — even if it's unclear how much effect importation would have.
"Importation will not solve all the problems," she said. "But it could be a useful way to put pressure on a federal government and White House that has thus far largely been inactive on this topic."

You could be running the risk of damage to the house (decreasing it’s re-sale value) and potentially the contents, too.
Gutter clearance is a vital part of maintaining your building’s appearance and integrity.
The build up of debris washed from the roof by rain water, bird droppings, moss and lichen can grow at an alarming rate, even if your property has no trees in the vicinity, hence it is advisable to have your gutters cleared on an annual basis to prevent water damage to your property.
Without an annual gutter check, you run the risk of leaves and other detritus clogging up your drains and gutters.
This can lead to rainwater damage – both inside and out of your property – which insurance companies will typically HOLD THE OWNER LIABLE FOR.

Our gutters cleaning services are carried out in a quick, efficient, yet safe manner.

How Often Should I Clean Gutters Out?
Ideally you should clean gutters out twice a year to ensure that you get longevity from your gutters and to prevent the ingress of water which can come from needing a gutter clean.
Not as much as you might think. Gutter cleans do vary from property to property due to access issues with regards to conservatories or height issues, however you will find that gutter cleaning is cheap when compared to the remedial costs involved when blocked gutters are left unattended. We provide no obligation quotes so it will cost you nothing to get a quote to have your gutters cleaned. Hopefully you will be pleasantly surprised by the cost of cleaning your gutters.

Watch this instructional video showing the assembly and covering the key features of the oval fabric counter.
Creating a professional looking reception counter as part of an exhibition stand, or as a podium to showcase products or literature in retail environments for POP or POS displays, this portable promotional fabric counter from Formulate is quick and easy to set up and collapse down, and features custom graphics to keep your branding centre stage and make a great first impression.
The simple structure has three tubular aluminium poles that snap together, and screw neatly into the durable MDF base and modern black counter top – no tools or expertise are required, making it ideal for regular, short term use. Once the frame is in place, the fabric graphic wrap is stretched around the outside, and the silicone edging is pushed into the pre-cut channels around the counter top. The whole process takes minutes, and creates a seamless, wrinkle free oval fabric display around the handy counter which can support up to 50kg when evenly distributed.
Custom graphics are printed using state of the art dye sublimation, which keeps colours bright and images sharp, ensuring your bespoke display counter has an impressive professional looking finish, and the fabric is machine washable to keep your graphics pristine at every event. Lightweight enough to easily move and reposition, but sturdy enough to hold samples, brochures and more, the podium collapses down to a fraction of its original size for easy transportation and compact storage, and the promotional fabric counter is supplied with its own convenient carry bag.

Thick, juicy slices of nectarines are stewed in sweet wine and spices, then gently laid on a bed of tart crust in this Fruitful dessert. Nectarine syrup is distilled from the simmering fruits, and used as a garnish.
The cinnamon and star anise punch up the brightness of nectarines, adding a subtle, spicy undertone.
The dessert wine is sweet, but not too sweet - plenty of fruit flavor shines through.
Excerpted from Fruitful by Brian Nicholson and Sarah Huck (Running Press). Copyright © 2014. Photographs by Steve Legato.
To make the crust, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut or rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles a coarse meal (work quickly to keep the butter cold). Mix in the water with a fork, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough just comes together; it should be moist, but not damp or wet. Gather the dough into a large ball and flatten it into a disk with the palm of your hand. Wrap the disk tightly in plastic wrap and chill it in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough to a 1/4-inch / 6 mm-thick round (about 11 inches / 28 cm in diameter). Transfer the dough to a 9-inch / 23 cm fluted tart pan with a removable bottom, pressing it lightly but snugly into the bottom and up the edges of the pan, allowing excess dough to hang over the edges. Run a rolling pin over the top of the pan to trim off any excess. Pierce the bottom of the crust several times with a fork, cover it with plastic wrap, and then transfer it to the refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400°F / 205°C and arrange a rack in the center position. Line the chilled tart shell with foil or parchment and fill it with pie weights, dried beans, or rice. Bake until the shell is set and golden, about 12 minutes. Carefully remove the weights and foil or parchment; continue to bake until the pastry is golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes more. If the edges begin to brown too quickly, cover them with a ring of foil. Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before filling.
To make the filling, combine the wine, sugar, cinnamon, and star anise in a medium pot. Add water to just cover the nectarines (about 2 cups). Bring the liquid to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Simmer very gently (do not let the mixture come to a boil) until the nectarines are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 5 to 10 minutes. Carefully remove the nectarines with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a bowl of ice water until completely cool. Drain the nectarines and pat them dry; peel the skin away with your fingertips and thinly slice the fruit into wedges, discarding the pits.
Remove the pot from the heat and strain the poaching liquid through a fine-mesh sieve, reserving 1 1/2 cups. Pour the reserved liquid into a wide skillet over medium-low heat and bring it to a simmer. Cook the liquid until it reduces in a syrup thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside to cool.
Just before serving, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip together the cream and confectioners' sugar until stiff peaks form. Beat in the vanilla.
Brush a thin layer of nectarine syrup on the bottom of the cooled tart crust. Spread the whipped cream over the syrup. Arrange the nectarine slices on top, fanning them in concentric circles with the small ends facing the center. Carefully brush the nectarine slices generously with the remaining syrup. Serve immediately.

On December 30, 2009, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a proposed rule which defines the central concept of “meaningful use” of electronic health record (EHR) technology. More broadly, the proposed rule also outlines other proposed provisions governing the EHR incentives program which was enacted under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act). The Medicaid EHR incentive program provides incentive payments to eligible professionals and hospitals for efforts to adopt, implement, or upgrade certified EHR technology, or for meaningful use in the first year, and for meaningful use for up to another five years. Thirteen states have already received approval for a federal match to support administrative planning activities (see next article).
Privacy and security protections under the HITECH Act.
For more detailed information about each of these areas, refer to this CMS Web page.
Also on December 30, the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) issued an interim final regulation (IFR) which sets initial standards, implementation specifications, and certification criteria for EHR technology. CMS and ONC worked closely to develop both rules and received input from technical subject matter experts, health care providers and other key stakeholders. Both regulations are open to public comment.
For more information on this topic and to review the proposed rule, please see this news release from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS).

Try the library to give a game a shot before you buy it. Most libraries have a good selection of popular games that can be borrowed for free. Libraries generally have games for each current system so give them a call and figure out if they carry the games you wish to try with Madden Mobile Coins!
Try exercising when you play Madden Mobile. The gaming industry has embraced technology involving motion sensors. You can now use your body to play games rather than just a controller. There are games ranging from action, to sports, to yoga that all utilize body motion. Get in shape in your very own living room at home.
When purchasing an unknown video game, check out its Metacritic score before purchasing. Cheap games typically have difficult game play or aren't enjoyable. It isn't really a great purchase if you don't enjoy playing the game. Turning to the Metacritic score is a way of knowing whether your purchase is a good one or not.
When you are playing Madden Mobile, pay attention to the signals your body is sending you. Sit on a balance ball when you game to help your spine stay straight. When you sit for many hours on end, you can injure your back or even become obese.
Getting lost in a great Madden NFL 18 can be very rewarding. You can learn a lot by Buy Madden NFL 18 Coins, feel that you have accomplished something and participate in activities you would never approach in real life.

Sometimes it seems my life has been a testament to bad judgement and wishful thinking. However, my wife of many years says she knows of nothing in the record to justify such unfettered optimism.
I'm a member of the last generation of rural veterinarians who remembers working with cows that had names and personalities and dairymen who worked in the barn with their families. I'm also part of the first wave of Baby Boomers, crusty codgers who are writing their wills and grousing about kids who can be damned condescending at times.
I'm an MSU grad (1969). I practiced bovine medicine in rural Wisconsin (La Crosse, New Richmond, Medford, and for 12 years in Marshfield) for nineteen years, returned to graduate school at the University of Minnesota, earned a PhD in microbiology, and spent the next nineteen years working in R&D on bovine and swine vaccines. I retired in December, 2012. Since then I've devoted myself to torturing the English language.
Don't be fooled. They weren't that innocent.
I've always enjoyed writing and telling stories, and when you make as many mistakes as I do, you have a lot of stories to tell. I practiced writing by writing Christmas letters that documented the stupid things I and my kids did over a 30 year period. Since no one wants to read a long letter, I learned to be concise.
The picture is from 30 years ago.
Even when I've tried to be serious, the books come out as comedies.
Doc's Codicil a work of fiction based loosely on my years in veterinary practice.
When Wisconsin veterinarian Doc dies, his family and nephew learn that to inherit his fortune, they must decipher the cryptic codicil he added to his will—“Take Doofus squirrel-fishing”—and they can only do that by talking to Doc's friends, reading his book, searching through his emails and papers, and discovering the clues around them.
An audible version of Doc's Codicil is available on Amazon. For a time, Amazon is running a FREE promotion.
Veterinary virologist Jason Mitchell can't keep his mouth shut, lie convincingly, or follow orders. He's an unlikely candidate to help the CIA locate and destroy a deadly hybrid virus stolen from his lab at the University of Minnesota. From Washington to Djibouti and from Minneapolis to Yemen, Marines cringe, senators turn livid, and federal agents shudder as Jason struggles to prevent the virus from becoming a biological weapon in the hands of insurgents.
Irene McIntosh (Bookseller) on NetGalley, July 1, 2015. 5 out of 5 stars.
"Really enjoyed this book. It has been a very long time since an author has made me laugh out loud. A life lesson engagingly told. Take more time for squirrel fishing, deep water marine especially!"
Christine DeSmet, mystery author, faculty associate and director, Write-by-the-Lake Writer’s Workshop & Retreat, University of Wisconsin-Madison (July 7, 2015).
"Doc’s Codicil by Gary F. Jones is entertaining, wise, and filled with touches of magical realism. I enjoyed following Doc—a dairy veterinarian—on his rounds with his unlikely guardian angel called Doofus. Doc’s family troubles and the authentic details of small-town life are charming and keep the plot moving at a good pace. And what the animals do (and think!) during the local Christmas Nativity play is downright hilarious. If you enjoyed movies where actor Jimmy Stewart conversed with a tall rabbit named Harvey and the angel Clarence in his search for wisdom, you’ll “get” this imaginative debut novel."
Jason and Ann are graduate students experimenting with a bovine virus. An accident contaminates their samples, which are stolen by the Jerk and sold to Jihadists. It took me a while to warm up to this satire. I found it to be clever with a peppering of waggish bon mots, "... he read the cell phone instructions from cover to cover--possibly the first male to ever do so." If you've ever been a graduate student you will especially appreciate this comedy of errors.
"It all started when a foreign grad student ". . . You know what they say about plans and reality -- they seldom resemble each other.
"The plot is twisty but believable, especially if you have experience in academia. The characters are realistic enough to walk off the page. . . "
Chris Throckmorton searches for his great grandfather's assets buried in an abandoned office as he's stalked by his greedy ex-wife, a divorcee with romance on her mind, a local con man, a crooked mayor and a phantom killer.

This is a timely, essential read. I’ve been so challenged by this book that I have recommended it as our February Book Discussion on Wednesday evenings. It is not only well-written, but Len Sweet has courageously addressed a long overdue core issue within Christianity. As with his previous books, Sweet has called the church to task. We have been majoring in everything except Jesus. We’ve wandered the earthly realm far too long as a ‘Headless’ body.
Sweet has appropriately organized his book in four sections, the structure underscoring the message: vece, via, verita, vita. Chock full of delicious quotes and delightful stories, he invites the reader to realign his or her faith under Christ, to move from believing in the church, believing in our beliefs, to believing and following Jesus. Our beliefs and practices aren’t there to lead us to themselves, but to Him – the way, the truth, and the life.
Each section ends with ‘interactives’ – thought-provoking questions designed not only for the reader, but also for group discussion. Why has the church majored in a leadership rather than a follower culture? Has our contemporary church erased all notions on how to serve? Have we striven for that which is the antithesis of the gospel? Have we emulated the ways of the secular rather than the spiritual? What would the church look like if we returned to ‘followership’ rather than persisting with our ‘leadership’ model? Have we largely obscured the gospel of Jesus Christ because of our penchant to be more ‘American’ than Christian? Have we structured ourselves against discipleship?
Sweet has called the church to accountability.

text: Volker Deecke is a Conservation Biologist who currently works at the University of Cumbria. Most of his research career took him to the west coast of British Columbia and Alaska where he studied killer whales. His background in behavioural ecology gave him insight to the world of the bears that he inevitably encountered during his time in British Columbia and in Alaska. It is worth pointing out here that many of his encounters were boat based, watching the animals from a boat gave him the chance to view them without overtly affecting their behaviour, which in one instance really paid off! I’m really grateful for Volker taking the time to share his insights for this project, he continues to be very supportive of my endeavours and understands the importance of studying and aiming to improve the human-animal relationship. This is Volker’s bear story.
