  • Alcohol
    • Although society has not labeled alcohol as a date rape drug, it is a contributing factor in over half of all sexual assaults against persons older than 12.
  • Rohypnol (Roofies)
    • Illegal in the U.S. but is still produced in Mexico, South America, Europe and Asia.
    • Effects can occurs 20-30 minutes after ingestion, lasting approximately 8-12 hours; it can be detected in the body up to 72 hours after ingestion.

    • Effects can occur within 10-20 minutes of ingestion and last up to 4 hours.
  • Ecstacy
    • Illegal drug with both stimulant and hallucinogenic effects.
    • Effects can last anywhere from 3-6 hours, and leaves the body in 12 hours.
  • Ketamine (Special K)
    • A dissociative anesthetic for human and veterinary use.
    • Usually found as a clear liquid in a pharmeceutical bottle and is most often cooked into a white powder.

  • Metabolize quickly leaving little physical evidence of the drug
  • Person can experience blackout or anterograde amnesia
  • Can't recall what happened to them
  • While unconscious victims can be sexually assaulted

Lindera Benzoin – Spicebush

At The Holden Arboretum, Lindera benzoin, spicebush, is one of the most common shrubs in our natural areas. There are fine plantings of spicebush in the Arlene and Arthur S. Holden Jr. Butterfly Garden, the Myrtle S. Holden Wildflower Garden, west of Blueberry Pond, and at Lantern Court. Lindera is a member of the Lauraceae, a family that includes our native Sassafras as well as a greater number of tropical and warm temperate plants, including bay laurel and avocado.

Native from Maine to Florida and west as far as Iowa and Texas, these beautiful shrubs inhabit most, rich woodlands. The name spicebush is in reference to the pleasant spicy aroma of its crushed leaves, stems or fruits. The twigs and foliage are not so spicy that they always deter browse from white-tailed deer, although they are certainly not their preferred food.

In April, the small yet profuse yellow flowers adorn the branches in a subtle display. Individual plants are either male or female, with both required for fruit. The females have shiny red fruit from September to November if the birds don’t devour them first. The fruit, along with the fruits of sassafras, tupelo and flowering dogwood is high in lipids (fats) that are particularly useful to migrating birds. Lindera benzoin is a larval host to the spicebush swallowtail butterfly. In October its foliage turns bright yellow. The red fruit, if not taken by great crested flycatcher, veery, wood thrush, red-eyed vireo and the like, is much more visible following leaf drop.

Growth rate of our plants has been a foot or more per year when young. Two to three foot tall plants typically grow 9-11 feet tall in six years. Also, for such plants fruiting has begun during the first three to six years. Plants are best transplanted when young as they quickly establish a rather coarse, deep root system that resents disturbance.

Spicebush is most appropriate in a naturalistic landscape. For people who wish to plant natives of known local provenance, a landscaper can obtain plants from wholesale growers in Lake County that grow their stock from seed collected from the wild locally. This is a charming yet underutilized shrub that deserves to be planted more in our landscapes.

Skills | Instruction

Skill Development is now a foreign practice for many players.

Basketball has become a sport where the number of game hours are far surpassing the number of hours spent working on their craft. You wouldn't want your son or daughter to take a test at school, without ample amount of studying, so why should players play in game after game without practicing their skills?

Contrary to popular belief of many other basketball camps, Hoop Group Skills Camp understands that practice and skill development workouts are where a player learns the skills and techniques of the game, and game-play is their platform to showcase the results of their hard work and dedication. Hoop Group Skills Camp provides players the best environment (15 full-courts, distraction-free setting, and coaches who love to teach the game), and instruction (high school coaches, college coaches, and college players will be coaching campers) to improve their game.

Our innovative teaching program, proven over 55 years of camp experience, provides players the perfect balance of instruction and competition to improve their game. The players who succeed in basketball are the ones that understand the amount of hours and repetitions it takes on the court to perform at their highest level. Successful players understand they need to be properly coached & critiqued to correct their mistakes to make them a more efficient player.

Our dedicated and experienced staff will give you the building blocks to succeed, with two skill development sessions each day. Every morning of camp begins with an optional Early Bird Workout, from 7:15am-8:15am, for the players looking for even more time on the courts. Our guest lectures and demonstrations will put you in front of the best minds our game has to offer, including Hall of Fame coaches Bob Hurley, and Herb Magee, as well as other notable coaches Tobin Anderson (STAC), Joe Mantegna (Blair Academy), Pat Kennedy (499 Division I wins), Steve Rosenberry (Front Office, Portland Trailblazers) and more!

  • America's #1 Instructional Basketball Camp, with over 5 decades of teaching excellence
  • Longest Running Basketball Camp in the U.S.
  • 2 full-time camp directors that have coaching experience at the AAU, High School and College levels
  • Camp Coaching staff consists of current College and High School coaches, along with college players and managers, giving campers different perspectives of the game, from experienced and passionate coaches.

Howard Leight Sync Stereo EarmuffDINGLEY, VIC -- Optimising acoustical earcup design, volume management technology, and personal hearing protection, Howard Leight introduces Sync™, the next generation of stereo earmuffs. Sync delivers the proper levels of hearing protection in hazardous noise environments with high-fidelity stereo sound from users personal portable audio MP3 players.

“Most stereo earmuffs on the used in industry today provide a moderate level of hearing protection, but often sacrifice the sound quality of the attached MP3 players – which can work to discourage their use,” said Renee S. Bessette, COHC, Global Brand Manager, Howard Leight. “In contrast, Sync stereo earmuffs optimise new designs and technologies that provide both hearing protection and true listening enjoyment. Sync entices usage – to deliver protection from noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) on the job or at home.”

  • Protection from Hazardous Noise - With an SLC80 rating of 31dB Class 5, Sync provides ideal, consistent hearing protection and ensures appropriate attenuation in most industrial environments. Sync’s Volume Management Technology™ manages sound levels reaching the user’s ear to a safe level.
  • Plug In and Go – There are no volume knobs or power switches to coordinate nor batteries to replace. Ease-of-use is enhanced by maintaining volume and power control through the MP3 device. Users simply plug MP3 players and personal audio devices and listen.
  • Personal Listening – Sync can be used with a users’ own MP3 player, mobile phone and other personal audio devices, ideal for use at work or at home. Its technologically advanced acoustical bass chamber enhances bass sounds that are typically sacrificed in industrial stereo earmuffs.
  • Cool, Modern Style - Sync’s earcup design is DJ-inspired, and the sound quality is on par with other professional audio headphones. Sync’s stylish design easily surpasses other industrial earmuffs. Both comfort and fit are ensured by its padded diamond-patterned headband and its reinforced forkslides that keep it in place when worn.

Sync is now available for ordering through industrial safety distributors in Australia

Portland Timbers Post Second-straight Loss As They Fall 4-1 To D.C. United
Aug 16, 2018

After the Timbers snapped their 15-game MLS unbeaten streak with a loss against the Vancouver Whitecaps Saturday, Portland coach Giovanni Savarese told the media that he wanted to see how his group would respond from the rare defeat.

"The most important part is how we react to this defeat," Savarese said. "That will make the character of the team."

Savarese certainly didn't get the response he wanted Wednesday.

The Timbers conceded a soft goal in the first half and fell apart in the second half as they lost 4-1 to a weak D.C. United (6-9-6, 24 points) team at Audi Field in Washington, D.C. Portland is now riding a two-game losing streak for the first time since the opening two games of the season.

"We have to continue to work," Savarese said. "In the second half, they were better than us. They wanted it a little bit more than us and they deserved the victory."

The game started out well for Portland. After allowing two goals in the first half in their loss to the Whitecaps, the Timbers put in a much stronger performance in the first 40 minutes of Wednesday's game.

Timbers midfielder Sebastian Blanco helped to set up the first goal of the night as he found Andy Polo in the box in the 35th minute. Polo cut the ball back across the box for Samuel Armenteros, who slotted a shot under the hands of a diving D.C. United goalkeeper Bill Hamid to give the Timbers the 1-0 lead.

It was Armenteros' eighth goal of the season and Portland's first goal from the run of play since a match against the Houston Dynamo on July 28.

But it was downhill for the Timbers from there.

D.C. United's Yamil Asad got on the end of a pass in the midfield in the 43rd minute. When the Timbers failed to close down the space, Asad dribbled toward goal and slotted a pinpoint pass in between Timbers defenders Larrys Mabiala and Lawrence Olum to D.C. United star Wayne Rooney. Rooney slotted the equalizer into the net as Timbers defender Julio Cascante leisurely tried to chase him down.

Savarese was clearly upset with the concession. At halftime, he told Root Sports that his group became "too casual" after scoring first and "conceded something very stupid."

"Difficult match," said Savarese after the game. "I thought we had a good first half up until the 40th minute. We started well. We did a lot of good things. We were compact. We created chances. We were moving the ball the right way, until we became too casual and allowed them to be able to score the goal."

Once again, it was clear that Savarese was looking for a response from his team in the second half. He didn't get it.

D.C. United midfielder Luciano Acosta somehow maintained control of the ball in the 47th minute after dribbling around multiple Timbers defenders at the top of the box. Acosta then slotted a pass off to defender Oniel Fisher, who scored to give D.C. United a 2-1 lead.

Rooney extended D.C. United's lead in the 68th minute when he fired a beautiful free kick over the wall and into the net.

Former Timber Darren Mattocks put the game to rest in stoppage time as he scored a spectacular goal on a counter attack to give D.C. United the 4-1 lead. It was Portland's most lopsided loss since falling 4-0 on the road to the New York Red Bulls on March 10.

The Timbers will now head to Kansas City where they will face Sporting Kansas City on short rest Saturday as they attempt to end their two-game skid.

"In the second half, maybe the guys didn't come in with the right mentality," Savarese said. "In the end, it's my responsibility, my fault. I take full blame for this defeat."

Notes: Argentine attacker Tomas Conechny made his Timbers debut in the game, coming on for Sebastian Blanco in the 73rd minute.

How to Care for a Bird Pet

Most homes keep domestic animals as a pet. There are many reasons for keeping pets, but the most important reason is, for the companionship and pleasure. Interestingly, most children love pets compared to adults. They love pet dogs, birds, and kittens among many other domesticated animals. However, most people disregard the fact that pets to have rights like human beings. Pets also need to be treated with dignity otherwise keepers risk losing them or in the worst case scenario could be arrested by veterinary officers and government agencies responsible for protecting animals rights. This article provides tips on how to specifically look after a bird pet.

Build a Safe Birdhouse

Birds are vulnerable to predators like dogs, especially during the night. House raised several meters from the ground will provide a safe shelter for the pet bird. Also, proper ventilation and doors should be made for fresh air to circulate inside.

Regular cleaning of Birdhouse

Birds excrete feces, especially at night. A simple routine of getting rid of the waste material should be conducted every morning. Otherwise, piles of bird feces could be a recipe for diseases. Diseases thrive in dirty areas, and therefore precautionary measures should be taken. If possible, you can purchase a sterilizer for cleaning purposes. They are sold at retail stores at affordable prices.

Routine Feeding

Feeding is an activity every bird pet keeper should enjoy. Birds like to feed almost every second of their day except in the evening when they retire to their house after a usually busy day. Saving some money to buy your pet bird some cereals is a good thing. Don’t let them be hungry otherwise, they will escape for greener pastures. You also need to give them water.

nshdgdsugddedPet birds are prone to diseases like flu which spreads like fire on dry grass. If untreated, a pet bird can easily die. A pet bird keeper should ensure birds are treated by a qualified veterinary officer to prevent them from diseases.
Show affection
Bird pet sometimes gets lonely too. The owner can show affection by playing with the pet bird or finding an object for the bird to play with. Pet birds are like human beings, they need to be massaged, handled well and allowed to play.

Train it for competitions

Numerous pieces of evidence have revealed birds are very intelligent. Some pet birds such as eagles can be trained to participate in competitions.…

In spite of a century of often fruitful control and prevention efforts, infectious diseases remain a major problem in public health, causing over 14 million deaths every year in the world. Four infectious diseases (lower respiratory infections, diarrhoeal diseases, HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis) are among the 10 leading causes of death in the world. Furthermore, new epidemic or pandemic threats are constantly emerging, others practically extinct re-emerge. Severe bacterial infections, including nosocomial infections, are a well-recognized but still increasing concern. Acquired bacterial resistance to antibiotics has now become extensive and has reached dangerous levels even beyond the limits of hospital environment. HIV infection is not only spreading at an alarming rate in developing countries, but continues to pose serious patient management questions in France. Two main causes explain these facts. On the one hand, demography, behaviour and technology changes in the human societies associated with the 20th century ecological alterations of the planet have created the ideal conditions for the emerging and spread of infectious agents. The multiplication of the migration of humans all over the world now implicates that no infectious agent, including multiresistant bacteria, is confined to one region of the globe. On the other hand, the constant ability of microorganisms to evolve and adapt allows them to find new environmental niches, to diversify their pathogenicity and to increase their drug resistance.

    The goal of the laboratory is to study, through a multidisciplinary approach, at both microbial population and human population levels, the ecological and evolutionary forces as well as the mechanisms allowing microorganisms to adapt, to become virulent and resistant to antimicrobial agents. Three major microorganisms are mainly studied, Escherichia coli and others multiresistant enterobacteriaceae, HIV and HCV. We search to optimise the current preventive and therapeutic strategies to fight these pathogens and we develop new approaches on both aspects. The effectiveness but also cost and cost-effectiveness of these interventions are evaluated to propose decision-making strategies.

    Our research is characterised by both fundamental and applied approaches. We develop projects with immediate implications on the management of patients and decision-making processes in health institutions but also more fundamental projects devoted to better characterise the genetics, physiology and ecology of infectious agents, and theoretical approaches in statistics and population genetics to develop new framework to analyse these agents. The interplay between these different approaches is a key point of our laboratory. To achieve such research, IAME mixes basic scientists with medical doctors from various specialities and puts a special emphasis on mathematical and statistical approaches.

[Ended] GOSICK: Intricately Crafted

After a slow and a somewhat confusing start, GOSICK had turned out to be quite a piece of work. This is one of those very typical series that clues play with hide and seek with you. On top of that, each arc within the overarching plot is also a small mystery by its own. It's like one of those puzzle solving game where every time you solves a mini-puzzle, you get a piece of clue to the bigger puzzle. The problem, is that the mini-puzzle took a bit too simplistic approach where it was really difficult to get impressed by Victorique's ability, which I think that's what they're trying to get at with them. But, it did manage to do quite well on slowly upping the size of the events and before you know it, it has gotten to the scale of a World War.

Some parts of the story are a bit too heavy on achieving poetic justice rather than simply supporting the story and pull back on reaching too far into the land of far-fetched'ness. It seems it's trying to pull a small Sherlock Holmes stunt every single mystery but without properly building logical support behind it. That in my opinion has somewhat of a negative effect than just making it simple.

Final scoreboard:

Drama: 85 (Some are bit artificial, but most are pretty good)
Comedy: 82 (Not bad)
Action: N/A
Art/Animation: 90 (Quite well made)
Sound/Music: 92 (Both ending theme songs were great)
Character: 90 (Interesting)
Plot: 90 (Unpredictable)
Ending: 94 (Well built climax)

Re-watch value: 70 (May catch more clues)

Overall: 90 - Intricately Crafted

Overall, this is a very good series that well worth your 8 hours of time. The subplot mystery may look corny from time to time, but what it builds up to is actually quite remarkable.

Jan 2, 201406:59 AMBlaska's Bring It!

with David Blaska

Walker, Epic rule in the year 2014

(page 1 of 2)

From the pages of In Business magazine.

It was touch and go, but the pallet of vacuum tubes arrived from North Korea (don’t ask) just in time to fire up Old Sparky, the venerable Sperry-Rand Univac computer. The white lab coats here at the Blaska Policy Research Werkes and Tanning Salon fed the balky mainframe a binful of punch cards encoded with the latest empirical data. Our mission: forecast the future so that you, the businessperson, can prosper in the new year come hell or global warming! After much whirring and clanking, the rusty wreck issued a puff of smoke and these startling 2014 predictions:

January: To stir up business, the president cuts an infomercial offering a free Susan B. Anthony coin to every 20-something who enrolls in Obamacare. Snowstorm is blamed on global warming/climate change. Epic Systems lands NHL franchise.

February: At the Sochi Winter Olympics, Vladimir Putin awards the Ukrainians Gold, Silver, Bronze, and a timeshare in Crimea. Michigan, preoccupied with trying to unload Detroit on eBay, fails to notice that Wisconsin has seized the Upper Peninsula, thanks to a daring midnight landing of the Washington Island ferry, blown off course at Escanaba.

March: Gravity is best picture at the Academy Awards. Steve McQueen wins best director for 12 Years a Slave as consolation for not winning for Bullitt. Israel brings Iran’s nuclear weapons development to a halt by implanting Obamacare website. Epic Systems annexes Verona.

April: Bo Ryan’s team makes the Final Four. Steve Stricker wins his first major, the Masters, after Tiger Woods is disqualified for accidentally kicking his ball out of a divot. Ann Walsh Bradley is defeated for re-election to the State Supreme Court after a Claymation video of her June 2011 smackdown with Justice Prosser, “Flying Fists of Justice,” goes viral. (Ooops! That's not until 2015!) Isolated tornado is blamed on global warming/climate change.

May: Drafting high, the Green Bay Packers take a quarterback in the first round and sign Bear retread Jay Quitler as a free agent. Cheap. Epic Systems purchases Detroit and turns it into a virtual B&B.

June: A South Beltline bypass connecting U.S. 151 at Verona with the interstate north of Stoughton is approved in concept. The Sierra Club files suit. Summer heat wave blamed on global warming/climate change.

July: The Wisconsin State Journal, repentant for pumping raw socialism into its subscribers’ homes every Wednesday, commissions a conservative/libertarian counterpoise to The Capital Times. Blaska named editor for life. Epic Systems issues first postage stamp, honoring Lou Reed.

What is puzzling is Blaskas distaste for Epic. He is always spouting his pro-business bona fides, yet slams a successful area business at every opportunity. Maybe because it is run by a woman? Maybe they turned him down for a job as PR Director?

Maybe Dave can answer the question: Why do you hate Epic?

This is as much coverage of Epic, the area's largest job creator and revenue producer, as I've seen in the pages of IB. I wonder if they've paid to sponsor Bring It (I'd Rather Not Have To Come Get It) for 2014.

I don't hate Epic at all! I'm gently joshing their explosive and very welcome growth (as everyone else understands). Why do you project such paranoid fantasies? What are your issues? And why do you no longer use your on-screen pseudonym? Discredited too much?

Dave, I used to enjoy, in a masochistic way, your wit. But your bile, and that of your sycophants, knows no bounds. I am no longer amused. I hope you and your fans enjoy the continued decline of Wisconsin under Walker. I weep for everyone else. I'm outta here, to spend my lavish (and to your petty eyes, unearned) state pension (bless you, Democrats!) in another state. The worst sin of all? You're predictable, and therefore boring. And mean. Very, very mean.

The Cinderella of the chemical engineering curriculum

Professor Sir William Wakeham

A former president of the Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE), Professor Sir William Wakeham, is calling for the process systems engineering community to take a greater role in delivery of the chemical engineering curriculum.

Systems engineering is a discipline that has the widest possible application in designing, managing, controlling and operating complex plants and projects such as process plants, manufacturing systems, bridge building, spacecraft design and robotics.

Indeed, increasingly, systems engineering is the solution to the grand challenges that face society – which are large, complex and systemic in nature – and to which engineering can contribute.

However, in chemical engineering undergraduate courses, systems engineering is rarely used as the framework for the discipline. It is taught as yet one more topic, and introduced late in the course.

Professor Sir William Wakeham, a past president of IChemE, senior vice president of the Royal Academy of Engineering and former head of the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London, is calling for a change to the chemical engineering curriculum to give more emphasis to systems engineering.

Sir William said: “I would argue that for too long systems engineering has been somewhat of a Cinderella subject in the curriculum.

“However, when you look at the current modern role of chemical and process engineers, and their importance to society, it is clear that they are at the heart of many complex and fundamental activities.

“Chemical engineers are not just specialists, but they are also agents for change operating across boundaries – technical and organisational – in complex business environments.”

IChemE’s former president continued: “Systems engineering is often seen as peripheral or an add-on to other aspects of an undergraduate programme, but this may be inappropriate if we are to prepare students for a leading role in the complex world of modern engineering.

“Systems engineering should have an overarching and leading role in chemical engineering teaching today to ensure that chemical engineers fulfil their potential in areas such as energy, water, food and health.”

Sir William will be presenting his thoughts on the professional role of chemical engineers, the challenges for the modern chemical engineering curriculum to prepare students appropriately, and the central role that systems engineering have to play in a special IChemE online webinar called Process Systems Engineering: an enhanced role in the curriculum? on 3 February 2014, 10:00-11:00, GMT.

The role of chemical engineers in the health, water, food and energy sectors is explored in IChemE’s latest technical strategy, Chemical Engineering Matters.

Ash Wednesday

Our Ash Wednesday service will be Wednesday, March 6 at 7:30 p.m. Ash Wednesday is the beginning of Lent, a forty-day period of self-examination. During Lent, Christians make their way toward the drama of Holy Week, in which we remember the suffering and death of Jesus on Good Friday and his resurrection on our highest holy day, Easter Sunday.

Our service will include a short message and the imposition of ashes for those who wish to receive them. Ashes are the traditional sign of sorrow and repentance and are also a sign of mortality. They are often prepared from the palm leaves used in worship during the previous year’s Palm Sunday - thus reminding us of how quickly we can go from celebrating Christ’s love and power to participating in those acts which lead to his crucifixion.

AS-Interface controllers / gateways - System description

  • Support of the AS-i standard 2.1 for extended functionality.
  • Powerful controllers with easy-to-use graphic display.
  • ”Safety at Work” for safety-related applications.
  • Wide range of modules for control cabinets and field applications.
  • Intelligent system solutions for special tasks.

The actuator-sensor interface (AS-i) sets new technological standards in the design and automation of installations. This leads to economic advantages for the OEM and the user for project management, commissioning and maintenance of machines. In contrast to conventional fieldbuses AS-i has a finely granulated structure and can therefore be integrated even into proximity sensors. AS-i considerably reduces wiring complexity since conventional parallel wiring of each sensor or actuator to the controller is no longer necessary. This saves the user a great number of terminals, splitter boxes, input/output cards and cable lines.

Wide selection of connection options
Via its field connections AS-i allows low-cost connection of conventional devices. Up to 248 binary sensors and 186 actuators can be connected per AS-i line. It is also possible to integrate sensors with bus capability into the system at any time. These sensors with integrated AS-interface supply more information to the controller without the need of additional wiring. Therefore this latest sensor generation is also referred to as intelligent sensors.

Voltage supply and data via one cable
Voltage supply and data communication of all sensors are normally performed via a (yellow) AS-i cable. For some modules actuators can also be sup-plied via this cable. If a higher output current or emergency stop switch-off is required, actuators are supplied via a second black flat cable with a separate 24 V auxiliary voltage.

AS-i in the automation pyramid
AS-interface has established itself at the lowest automation level, it is locat-ed below the fieldbuses. The strengths of AS-i are its simple structure, speed, quick wiring and price/performance ratio. It can be used as a feeder bus for higher bus systems, they in turn then ensure a non time critical transmission of the data over longer distances to the host controller.

Medical malpractice insurance

Medical Malpractice occurs when a medical professional is proven to have acted in a way that is negligent when treating a medical condition or emergency. Examples of malpractice may include an unreasonable delay in treatment or diagnosing a specific medical condition, the complete failure to diagnose a specific medical condition or disease, the misdiagnosis of a specific medical condition or disease and the failure to provide treatment that is appropriate for a specific medical condition or disease.

Medical malpractice insurance is becoming more and more necessary as more malpractice cases are heard in court today than ever before. This type of insurance is designed to protect medical professionals and most states require some sort of professional liability coverage to offset the costs and risks associated with lawsuits that are based on medical malpractice.

Medical malpractice insurance is typically bought through commercial companies or companies that are owned by physicians. Hospitals and other healthcare facilities typically purchase this insurance as well as the medical professionals who work there. When physicians are employed by the government, they are insured by the government so they are not typically required to purchase malpractice insurance for themselves. Premiums for medical malpractice insurance are typically set based on the payout that is expected for particular risk groups, expected administrative expenses, future investment income and the profit rate. Information is considered on past expenses and losses as well as other information about the healthcare professional and the association when determining premium rates. Premiums may also be priced depending on the geographical area in which the physician practices as well as the physician’s specialty.

Malpractice insurance is strictly regulated by each state’s commissioners to make certain that these rates are not overly expensive and that all physicians and other healthcare professionals are treated equally. There are basically four types of medical malpractice insurance. These are Claims Made, Prior Acts, Tail Coverage and Occurrence Coverage.

Claims Made Coverage provides coverage for all incidents that may occur while the insurance policy is in force. In order for the incident to be covered, the claim must be filed while the insurance policy is in force. If a policy is cancelled or a healthcare professional changes insurance carriers or policies, the policy will cease to cover any claims made after that time. This is true even if a malpractice act happens while the policy is effective. These types of policies are based on current experience and not on the potential liabilities of the future.

Prior Acts and Tail Coverage or Nose Coverage policies are designed to offer additional coverage to handle those claims that may be made after a Claims Made policy is no longer in force. If an alleged malpractice happens while the policy is in force, but it not claimed until after the policy has lapsed then this coverage would kick in. It is important to note that many medical malpractice suits are not filed for years after the alleged acts occur. Since this is the case, Prior Acts coverage helps to protect the healthcare professional for any acts that are claimed but not reported immediately. Tail coverage policies are those that are purchased from the same company that held the canceled Claims Made policy.

Occurrence coverage insurance is much like consumers’ home insurance. These policies cover incidents when they are claimed, no matter how long that may be after the alleged incident took place. They offer coverage even in cases where the policy has been canceled after the alleged act occurred. As long as the policy was in force when the alleged act happened, Occurrence Coverage will cover it. The main advantage to choosing this type of medical malpractice insurance coverage is in the fact that it eliminates the need for supplemental coverage such as Prior Acts and Tail Coverage policies. This is also the most expensive type of medical malpractice insurance, which is a disadvantage in many cases.

1 Response for “Medical malpractice insurance”

  1. Dexter says:

    Thanks for the post. It’s important to realize that with the recent reform talks in Congress, there are sure to be some changes for the medical malpractice insurance industry.

    Nonetheless, malpractice insurance will always be of upmost importance for healthcare professionals. I aspire to be a doctor someday and was looking into medical malpractice insurance the other day. During my search I found eQuoteMD, and I’ve learned a lot about my options. Just thought I’d share for anyone else out there in the same situation.

Explanation: None.

I feel so good to be with you.
You seem great in everything you do.
Why do I feel so good? I'd tell if I understood.
Maybe not love, but somewhere close. Maybe it is, who knows?
I just know that you're beautiful to me. You should know the beauty I see.
It's you. You light up my day. When we talk, it's everything you say.

Like no one else could do,
you're there to show me you're true.

I'm so thankful for you. I pray every night of my gratitude.
Just to see your face and smile, makes living worth while.
Your eyes I see, your whole world staring back at me.
Your lips, you kiss. There's no way to explain this.
I know, I hope, I can show you this eternity, just what you mean to me.
Tommorow is another day; maybe I can let you know some way.

Like no one else could do,
there's no one else like you.

25th annual Fiery Food Show – Fiber Joe interviews Crazy Good Sauce Company

Lost in our YouTube archives from the Fiery Food & BBQ Show, we have Fiber Joe’s many interviews. Crazy Good Sauce Company is one of a handful of companies that we will share with you over the next couple of weeks. In 2012 we did 2 of their product reviews. One for Nikki’s Crazy Good Southwest Sweet Heat and the other Jimmy’s Crazy Good Red Chile Hot Sauce. Since those reviews they have created a whole line of unique hot sauces with flavors and ingredient combinations that we have not seen in the industry before. I personally am looking forward to their newest creation, a pineapple salsa due out in September. Perhaps, just in time for an entry into our charity driven Salsa Contest at the Houston Hot Sauce Festival? Those following the 2012 Lenny Awards all know how much I enjoy pineapple products. Anyway, here is Fiber Joe’s interview with Jim from Crazy Good Sauce Company.

25th annual Fiery Food Show – Fiber Joe interviews Fri-B-Que

Fiber Joe just loves Fri-B-Que so much he had to stop by and see his good friend Mike Frison. They talk about their newest product, a ghost pepper hot sauce. They also bring up the All Purpose Seasoning as well. If you missed it last year, Joe was such a loyal fan and customer of Fri-B-Que, Mike asked Joe to do a small spot in his commercial they ran in local Albuquerque, NM. If you wish to see how good of an actor Joe is, check out the video below the show video. For purchase information, please see the contact information below the videos.

25th Annual Fiery Food & BBQ Show Diary- Preshow & some Day 1 pics part 1

Sam in Flame Suit at FFS

I can’t sleep thinking about this show. I still have not packed, and I leave tomorrow a few hours after work. I will pack then. What is the hurry? It is going to be beautiful weather during the day, 50’s-60’s, but in the 20-30’s at night. I am thinking of 1 sweatshirt/jacket and a bunch of t-shirts. Maybe some shorts might make the journey. Am I going to the Caribbean or the high elevation of Albuddahquerque, New Mexico? This is my 6th straight trip to the big show. It might be my last for a while since I like the fun events that the other shows bring, and this show while has it’s moments is a busy and tiring time for the vendors. It is hard for them to get into hangout mode when all they want to do is get off their feet and relax. Enter the Nativo Lodge. It is that place where people from the show hang. No big activity, no karaoke, no big dinner, just some alcohol and a jacuzzi if you are so inclined.

An article appearing on United Press International website states that a study at the University of Colorado found “the process protecting the body from autoimmune disease may also prevent it from creating antibodies to HIV-1”.* news snapshot July 12, 2017

OMG I can’t stop laughing. This is the most absurd in their face statement that contradicts everything HIV is built on, coming from researchers, scientists, no, school kids.

The tests for “HIV” only find antibodies, the test for HIV does not find HIV, it finds antibodies.

Thus when someone tests positive, they test positive for antibodies. Mind you in reality it is testing positive for antibodies in general, the tests do not specifically find “HIV” in the sense that most people believe what HIV is, it just finds viruses which every human has in them.

So here we have a school, with basically kindergartners in medical science in class studying something. It’s like when they do science projects and goof.

Let’s look at how they contradict what HIV is built on.

The study claims that our immune systems protect ourselves from autoimmune disease while preventing it from creating antibodies to HIV. If that statement were true – ROFL – oh sorry, I still can’t stop laughing – then no one would test positive for HIV because there would be no antibodies!

Without “HIV antibodies” we don’t test positive. No one would test positive.

The other ridiculously absurd statement they make is that “our immune systems protect ourselves from autoimmune disease”, yet they believe that HIV causes AD – Autoimmune Disease.  The foundation of HIV is that it causes autoimmune disease. If our bodies protect ourselves from it, it doesn’t get it. Get it? The school kids don’t get it, they are immune to this. Most people are immune, they just can’t understand that they have been lied to all this time about viruses.

Their statement is so stupid. It’s like saying the fortress protects from enemies but it doesn’t. One could state that a fortress is designed to protect from enemies and sometimes enemies get in, but they don’t do that with their statements, because with virology, and with fortresses, if someone comes in and starts shooting things up, there’s evidence there was a fight. Antibodies do that, they blow to pieces viruses that the body shouldn’t have there. Then the cleaning crews come in and flush those pieces down the toilet or in the trash. Antibodies are found as evidence that an “infection” or invaders came in. Antibodies are the military. It’s like finding shells, casings, helmets laying around, and dead invaders, finding antibodies is like seeing an invasion happened after it’s over, or maybe some enemy is still hiding in the fort (like they claim HIV hides in the body) but like in real life, that enemy hiding will be found before long and also dealt with.

HIV science is like science fiction, no, science fiction is more congruent! Many stories told about space invaders and rockets to the moon make more sense than HIV science and reading headlines like this about school kids “discovering” something new which is based on absurdities in science (AIS) is laughable.

So again, this 1st grade science project presented by a substitute teacher so to speak is cute, but it’s not valid. Based on the foundations of HIV/SCIENCE if antibodies are present there was an infection. School kids claim though that the body prevents antibodies from ever occurring.

Thus if they were right, there would be NOT ONE SINGLE POSITIVE TEST RESULT.

How does one spell “Flawed Idiotic Study Of Many” – FISOM.

Another thing to note, the use of the term autoimmune disease. HIV is a virus they claim, that they claim causes AIDS which they claim is an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Somewhere in all that definition mess is the concept that they are autoimmune diseases. Let’s look at the word “autoimmune”. It’s a lot like proactive which is another stupid term. Proactive is like saying really active or active active or super active or AGRESSIVE. An immune system tries to make one immune to something. Immunity. Auto immune? Is it on a wall timer? Can we set the times of immunity? Is this like auto pilot? Our immune systems are already on auto pilot, so the term “auto immune” is either stupid, redundant, or clever salesmanship used to describe a boring basic small car as if it’s something quite elaborate with all the bells and whistles.

In other words, autoimmune is the same as immune system working as it does automatically. We could acronymize that as ISWAIDA. That acronym wouldn’t sell though so we have to scratch that. Things that sell, that’s what’s important!

*look at the Wikipedia section shown below that explains the wacko science used here. There are types and subtypes. This section is just on HIV-1. Who knew you could be infected with so much garbage science! Or is it a syndrome that we have here of naming things, like Steve, John, and Mary, all subtypes or protypes of last names. OMGICSROFL.

HIV-1 is the most common and pathogenic strain of the virus. Scientists divide HIV-1 into a major group (Group M) and two or more minor groups, namely Group N, O and possibly a group P. Each group is believed to represent an independent transmission of SIV into humans (but subtypes within a group are not).[2] A total of 39 ORFs are found in all six possible reading frames (RFs) of HIV-1 complete genome sequence,[3] but only a few of them are functional.

Group M

With ‘M’ for “major”, this is by far the most common type of HIV, with more than 90% of HIV/AIDS cases deriving from infection with HIV-1 group M. The M group is subdivided further into clades, called subtypes, that are also given a letter. There are also “circulating recombinant forms” or CRFs derived from recombination between viruses of different subtypes which are each given a number. CRF12_BF, for example, is a recombination between subtypes B and F.

  • Subtype A is common in West Africa.[4]
  • Subtype B is the dominant form in Europe, the Americas, Japan, and Australia.[5]
  • Subtype C is the dominant form in Southern Africa, Eastern Africa, India, Nepal, and parts of China.[5]
  • Subtype D is generally only seen in Eastern and central Africa.[5]
  • Subtype E is found in Southeast Asia which is the dominant form for heterosexuals as transmission rate is much higher than most other subtypes.
  • Subtype F has been found in central Africa, South America and Eastern Europe.[6]
  • Subtype G (and the CRF02_AG) have been found in Africa and central Europe.[6]
  • Subtype H is limited to central Africa.[6]
  • (Subtype I) was originally used to describe a strain that is now accounted for as CRF04_cpx, with the cpx for a “complex” recombination of several subtypes.[citation needed]
  • Subtype J is primarily found in North, Central and West Africa, and the Caribbean[7]
  • Subtype K is limited to the Democratic Republic of Congo and Cameroon.[6]

These subtypes are sometimes further split into sub-subtypes such as A1 and A2 or F1 and F2.[citation needed] In 2015, the strain CRF19, a recombinant of subtype A, subtype D and subtype G, with a subtype D protease, was found to be strongly associated with rapid progression to AIDS in Cuba.[8] This is not thought to be a complete or final list, and further types are likely to be found.[9]

HIV-1 subtype prevalence in 2002

Group N

The ‘N’ stands for “non-M, non-O”. This group was discovered by a Franco-Cameroonia team in 1998, when they identified and isolated the HIV-1 variant strain, YBF380, from a Cameroonian woman who died of AIDS in 1995. When tested, the YBF380 variant reacted with an envelope antigen from SIVcpz rather than with those of Group M or Group O, indicating it was indeed a novel strain of HIV-1.[10] As of 2015, less than 20 Group N infections have been recorded.[11]

Group O

The O (“Outlier”) group is not usually seen outside of West-central Africa. It is reportedly most common in Cameroon, where a 1997 survey found that about 2% of HIV-positive samples were from Group O.[12] The group caused some concern because it could not be detected by early versions of the HIV-1 test kits. More advanced HIV tests have now been developed to detect both Group O and Group N.[13]

Group P

In 2009, a newly analyzed HIV sequence was reported to have greater similarity to a simian immunodeficiency virus recently discovered in wild gorillas (SIVgor) than to SIVs from chimpanzees (SIVcpz). The virus had been isolated from a Cameroonian woman residing in France who was diagnosed with HIV-1 infection in 2004. The scientists reporting this sequence placed it in a proposed Group P “pending the identification of further human cases”.[14][15][16]

Please excuse our mess as we improve our site

About Indiana Limestone Fabricators

 Established in 1995 by Brad & Michele Mobley with a primary focus on providing small to medium size cut stone projects. Through experience working for large companies I recognized the specialized needs of the contractors and owner of this specific market that the large companies were forced to neglect as a result of the demands put forth on the larger projects. We are often involved in assisting in the design stages with architects that have limited experience working with stone, as well as the architects that have extensive experience that are trying to achieve a certain look within their budget. Our market niche requires constant communication with the customer to insure their project meets and exceeds their expectations.

  The Mobley family has deep roots in the stone industry. My Father and Uncle were mill supervisors at Matthews Stone Company and my Grandfather was a stone cutter. With their technical assistance in fabrication combined with my wife’s administrative experience, along with my experience in drafting and estimating, we have assembled an effective business concept. Above all, Indiana Limestone Fabricators, Inc. is about teamwork. This happens with the customer and on the shop floor.

Family Background in Stone:
Father-Kenny Mobley
Uncle-Vernal Mobley
Grandfather-Ray Thrasher

  Recent Innovations: ILFI recently decided to invest in new, more effective technology. We have installed a new CNC Gantry Machine from Sawing Systems, Inc., which is a profiling machine with contouring and sawing capability. Capable of running 24/7 unattended, the machine stands alone in a separate, new facility. Programming for the machine is done in the office on CAD, and the machine is driven by Camsoft Pro' with 3D. The Model 521-CXX is actually a 5-axis machine, being used as a 3-axis workhorse. Driven by a 40HP variable speed main motor, the spindle arrangement on this carries a BT50 size tool holder that allows heavy router tools and up to 48" diameter blades. The machine can cut to size 18" thick or profile arches. There is 15' of X travel, 20' of Y travel, and 32" of Z (vertical) move, all programmable to operate simultaneous via servos. Rotation and Tilting axes on the spindle head are also performed by servos. X and Y .are precision racks and pinions; Z is by twin ball screws and ball nuts. GE Fanuc electronics are housed in the control console, and the display is a color touch screen. The PC based computer has a 20Gb hard drive, Windows os, and Pentium III processor. This machine has enhanced our fabrication, allowing the complicated and labor intensive cut stone work to become more affordable.

Grelox - Action platformer with a retro vibe heading to your PC

With our article of Alex Kidd in Miracle World remake going crazy numbers with everyone talking about it on the internet, we thought we'd give a shout to another fine game that's currently being developed, and this one is an action platformer with a very retro feel titled as Grelox. Now originally I thought the game had more of an MS-DOS feel, but according to Sunteam, this game will be coming to the PC and will be using a non limited Master System palette to give it that authentic feel, as well as the hope of using SMS style music when the game is complete.

Artwork by Paul Weller

As this is an early work in progress development as we don't have all the full details, the game will have lots of enemies to slash at, as well as multiple levels, and terminals that need to be hacked to open locked doors. So far the game is looking stunning from a nostalgia stand point, and I love the retro aesthetics as well as the sound effects which gives it the edge.

The premise of this movie is that humans are genetically engineered to stop aging at 25. Once they turn 25, they have 1 year of life that is 'free.'

The currency in the future is time. People work for minutes, hours, days. Food, utilities, rent and bills are paid with minutes, hours and days. The rich can essentially live forever while the poor live day to day.

What initially attracted me to this movie is the subject. Sure we’ve all heard “time is money,” but this movie takes the saying literally. It makes you question how ‘economically’ you’re spending your time.  If my time was money would I waste it browsing my Facebook newsfeed or watching pointless TV?  It certainly puts a different perspective on the way we view time. To us, time is seemingly infinite.  We don’t worry about living from day to day. In fact, it was just recently reported on ABC News children born in 2011 have a 1 in 2 chance of living to 100. 100 years is 1,200 months, 4,800 weeks, 33,600 days, 806,400 hours, 48,384,000 minutes, etc.  While we’re certainly not at a loss for time we are limited by the amount of money we have. Comparing the two makes for an interesting thought experiment but back to the movie.

The movie stars Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried.  The acting in the movie was mediocre and slightly emotionless but then again I doubt anyone is going to see this movie for the acting. It’s all about the big names and big story. Overall I liked this movie. Don’t get me wrong it’s certainly not as great as other dystopia movies like V for Vendetta and the Matrix but it was enjoyable.

***Warning Spoilers Ahead***

Justin Timberlake stars as Will Salas, a 28-year old struggling man living in the ghetto. He does manual labor for hours and lives with his mother who is turning 50.  That night he goes out with his friend to a bar and spots a man with over 100 years on his clock.  Will, being the good citizen that he is, rescues him from being robbed and killed for his time. Will then takes him back to his apartment and lets him spend the night. Before they fall asleep, the wealthy man explains to Will why he wants to die.  He is tired of the ‘clock.’  The clock refers to the system of government they now live in. Although the wealthy can live forever, people are meant to die.  Will then tells him if he had all the time in the world he wouldn’t waste it.

The next day Will wakes up with 100 years more on his clock than he remembered and saw the wealthy gentleman ‘time himself out.’  He is then pursued by the time keepers for murdering him for his time. When the time keepers catch up to him he escapes, taking hostage of Cynthia Weis (Amanda Seyfried), the daughter of the founder of Weis banks, the premiere lending institution for time.  At first she wants to go home but later decides to help Will in his cause to break the system.  They go on a rampage breaking into banks and giving away free time. At first they think they are helping but as Cynthia’s dad jacks up the interest rates they realize they need something bigger so they go to rob her father of 1 million years.  It is then when Cynthia’s father explains that even if they try to disrupt the system temporarily the clock will reset. In order for one man to live forever many must die. Will replies, no one must die for one man to live forever.  The time keepers continue pursuing him, but ultimately they step back and allow Will and Cynthia to continue their rampage.

The movie ends with Will and Cynthia taking on their largest bank yet.

I give this movie a 7/10. Leave a comment below if you’ve seen it or planning to see it. Or if you’re not. I would love to know what you think.
