WKRK FM/92.3 The Fan replaces rock with sports talk
Updated Jan 12, 2019; Posted Sep 02, 2011
By Chuck Yarborough, The Plain Dealer
View full sizeAnastasia PantsiosCleveland radio analyst John Gorman predicted in a telephone interview that 92.3 The Fan "will present a major challenge in this market."
It's a sandlot truism. The owner of the ball makes the rules.
As Cleveland's lone sports talk station, WKNR AM/850 has operated under that premise for years. As of this week, it no longer has the field all to itself.
CBS affiliate WKRK FM/92.3 abandoned its alternative-rock format at 6 a.m. Monday and became 92.3 The Fan, the area's first -- and only -- FM station devoted solely to sports.
Cleveland radio analyst John Gorman predicted in a telephone interview that 92.3 The Fan "will present a major challenge in this market."
Part of that is the mere science of having the station on the stronger FM band. An AM station's signal patterns shift at night, which means less coverage.
Beyond that, Gorman said, The Fan has assembled a "competitive team" including Adam "The Bull" Gerstenhaber and his sidekick and former Buckeye Dustin Fox on the 2-7 p.m. afternoon drive shift. Gerstenhaber is a native New Yorker and has toiled for CBS' megastation, The Fan, in the Big Apple, among other markets.
Craig Karmazin, the founder and CEO of Good Karma Broadcasting, which owns WKNR, said the new station "is certainly not anything I'm worried about."
"Never underestimate the passion of the Cleveland sports fans," Karmazin said in a telephone interview. This city "could support four, five or even six stations in the right conditions."
Gorman pointed out that the real excitement will be when the Indians, Cavaliers and Browns start peddling their broadcast rights. The Indians contract with WTAM AM/1100 -- a Clear Channel station -- runs through the end of the 2012 season. Cavs spokesman Tad Carper said the team has "multiple years" remaining on its contract with WTAM, but declined to be specific. Neal Gulkis of the Browns said the team's broadcast contract with WMMS FM/100.7 lasts through this season, with an option for next year.
But the advantage right now seems to rest with 92.3 The Fan, Gorman said. As a CBS affiliate The Fan has access to Westwood One national broadcasts including "Monday Night Football," as well as other professional and college games. While WKNR is an ESPN affiliate, its weakened signal after dark becomes a factor.
"You don't need games to talk about the sports," said 92.3 program director Andy Roth. "During [Sunday Browns games] we're going to have our night guy, Ken Carman, come in and talk about the action. . . . We're not going to have play-by-play, but we're going to be the first to talk about big plays."
Roth said the key to 92.3's success will be the personalities. "Fans want to talk about sports with people they trust, especially in a town like Cleveland where [sports] rolls off people's tongues."
That's why several of the on-air personalities have Cleveland ties, like morning-drive talker Chuck Booms, who ironically spent time as a jock with 92.3 when it was Jammin' 92; and WEWS Channel 5 sports director Andy Baskin, who handles the radio station's 10 a.m.-2 p.m. slot.
Noth acknowledged there has been some fallout from music fans.
"I'm getting emails," he said, "but I don't have time to respond to everybody. I understand that change has happened. We're trying to make the best radio station in Cleveland that's possible."
The shift prompted critics and proponents to post comments on social networks.
"I HATE it (yes HATE). There are no good radio stations in Cleveland," said Cleveland native Nikki Duvall on Facebook. "Every station talks, talks, talks all the time. 92.3 was the only station I cared for, and now that is gone, too."
"On a temporary hiatus from Sirius XM, I was listening to FM radio," wrote Jennie Narraway on Facebook. "I was very surprised and disappointed to find 92.3's format was changed to talk sports radio. Back to Sirius I go!"
"Can't ever have enough sports talk!" posted Michael Deptowicz.
Gorman, who helmed WMMS during its "Buzzard" heyday and now offers his expertise through Gorman Media and Fusion Multimedia, said college stations and satellite radio likely will continue to offer alternative-rock programming. In the meantime, the best game in town actually will be watching WKNR and 92.3 battle for sports-talk supremacy.
"Not that WKNR is going to roll over and play dead," Gorman said. "They're going to be aggressive."

Camping Sleeping Bags (aka fart sacks): advice to choose the best one for you!
From Down Sleeping bags to Cheap sleeping bags .
Choosing from the MANY Camping Sleeping Bags (aka 'fart sacks' by a dear friend of mine), is no simple task. A lot of considerations need to be taken into account beyond just the materials and shape. Sleeping bags can last a long time, so taking the time now, can mean you have a lifelong sleeping friend!
First off, what will you use it for?
•	You will need a TOTALLY different bag if you're taking it trekking in the arctic versus camping in the summer.
•	If you're backpacking, you'll want to get the lightest and smallest bag you can for the conditions you expect to encounter.
Maybe you're looking to buy a cheap sleeping bag. My recommendation is to not skimp on your sleeping bag. Purchase a sleeping bag that fits your needs, which may mean that a cheap sleeping bag (cheaper) is good for what you need, however, you will use your sleeping bag for WAY more activities than camping and so the extra money will be money well spent.
What are the coldest conditions that you expect to use it? How cold do you get?
•	Most camping sleeping bags are rated by the lowest temperature that they're good for. This is based on the average person, wearing long underwear, on a sleeping pad… however if you get cold (like I do, and many other women), then you'll want to get a warmer sleeping bag.
•	Temperature ratings are to be used as a guide only.
•	If you're going to just camp in the summer, then a 5C (40F) bag will be probably all you need. Buy a bag for temperatures a bit colder than the coldest you expect to experience. A bit warmer is always better than too cold (you can always open the zipper).
•	If you plan on doing winter and summer camping, then you can either open the warm sleeping bag over your body, or get 2 camping sleeping bags for both seasons.
•	Keep in mind, the sleeping pad and tent will also factor into your warmth.
If you're going to be somewhere that is wet, then a synthetic bag is better, cause down sleeping bags lose their insulating properties when wet, but if you're going to be somewhere dry, then a down bag might be better cause they're lighter and smaller per size. No matter if you waterproof the bag, if it's wet outside, the sleeping bag can still get wet.
How do you sleep? Are you claustrophobic?
•	Personally, I'm one of those sleepers who likes to sprawl out (to the disdain of any boyfriends I've had), this leads me to not enjoy mummy camping sleeping bags as much. Mummy's are pretty much what is encouraged for backpacking/interior camping.
-	Keep you warmer because there aren't many large cold air gaps in the sleeping bag to hold cold air.
-	Lighter to carry because excess sleeping bag is removed, so only the essential sleeping bag is kept.
-	Often cost more, cause they are more complicated shaped.
-	Can be claustrophobic for sprawling sleepers.
-	Better for sprawling sleepers.
-	Can lay open like a blanket to cover 2 people.
-	Can sometimes purchase for less money because they don't have a specialized shape.
-	Not as recommended for backpacking or backcountry camping because you're trying to conserve weight and space, and square shape isn't as efficient with materials.
-	Less warm for size.
-	Take up more space when packing.
A middle of the road between square and mummy, give a bit more room for restless sleepers, or can be used as mummy bags for larger people. Have no hood, which can be a drawback since a lot of heat is lost from the head. Personally I like barrel bags, cause if it's really cold, I just go further inside and have my face peek out the top.
These bags seem pretty darn awesome!! They are a sleeping bag in the shape of a person, so you 'wear your bedding'. They look super cozy, plus they let you sprawl out at night. Definitely worth considering!
Camping Sleeping Bags can be bought with the design in mind for a womens shape.
These Camping sleeping bags are more narrow at the shoulder, while wider at the hips, and have extra insulation in the torso and feet section (as a girl, I can fully appreciate the extra warmth for feet!).
Some childrens camping sleeping bags have attachments so that the bag attaches to the sleeping pad.They can also have external pockets for children to keep flashlights and keepsakes.
Some considerations to take into account if you're a man, is your height and width. A friend of mine is over 6 feet 5 inches and so always has to get extra long bags. Also, if you're a bit wider, then you'll want to make sure you have a bag that you'll fit into comfortably.
-	Pros: has more warmth per weight.
-	Does not keep it's warmth when wet.
-	If taken care of, can last as long as 20-30 years- My mom has one that she's had for as long as I can remember and it's still the warmest bag, especially for its size!
-	May not be as hardy with children, as feathers can come out, or break.
-	Not as humane, since the feathers for down sleeping bags are from dead birds.
-	Need to be careful when purchasing, since sometimes down knock-offs can be purchased which do not use the down feathers, instead they use other kinds of feathers which aren't the warm feathers.
-	People with allergies are more likely to have reactions to down sleeping bags versus synthetic bags.
-	Pros: can be cheaper.
-	Keeps its warmth when wet more than down sleeping bags.
-	Quicker drying than down sleeping bags.
-	Tougher and stands up to roughhousing more than down sleeping bags.
-	Can sometimes be almost as light as down sleeping bags.
Cons: less warmth per weight.
-	If compressed too much too often, they lose their loft, and thus their insulating value.
Although often overlooked, the opening side of the bag can make a big difference.
•	Hood- often found in mummy bags, this will help to keep you much warmer, as most heat is lost through your head!
•	Stuff sack- if you need extra space, you can purchase a compression sack, and line it with a garbage bag to keep your sleeping bag dry. The compression sack will allow you to shrink your sleeping bag much smaller!.
Remember, to increase the lifespan of your sleeping bag, when storing it, hang it or keep it in a bigger bag so that it isn't compressed.
Also, another extra feature that you might be interested in, is a sleeping bag liner to keep your natural oils off of the inside of the bag, giving your bag a longer life, and giving you a bit extra warmth.
Are you using it for backpacking?
I would suggest a mummy bag that is down as it is light and warm, however if the weather is wet, then get a light weight synthetic bag. The extra money will be worth it, cause you'll keep your sleeping bag a long time, and will use it for many different activities, and so, if you'll use it for backpacking, then you'll appreciate the weight difference and be glad you got a good bag!
What about if you're using it for Car camping?
I would suggest a regular square sleeping bag. Since these are the most versatile, you can use them for many things, and have them open and use as a blanket or attach two together, which is fun for car camping (the less serious sport).

It was a heart-felt desire of the people of Jhalda locality to have an academic institution for higher studies, a college for the local students to study degree course at under-graduate level. The initiative of common people including some eminent citizens gathered momentum during mid-1970s. With the banning of Ananda Marga College by Government of India in 1975, the necessity was felt even more strongly. After several meetings held in this direction in Jhalda and elsewhere, it was decided that a college namely "JHALDA COLLEGE" will be established "as a successor of Ananda Marga College" (as in the letter granting affiliation from the Registrar, Burdwan University). Later it was renamed as "ACHHRURAM MEMORIAL COLLEGE" in the memory of Late Lala Achhruram Behl (1894-1964), an eminent industrialist and father of Late Sohanlal Behl, an eminent industrialist himself and the donor of the college.
Late Lala Achhruram Behl
Late Sohanlal Behl
The college was formally started on 1st September 1975 in a building at the heart of Jhalda town. The college was then planned to be housed in a new college building and the foundation stone of this proposed building was laid on a gracious function on 9th February, 1979. The foundation stone was laid by Late Manoharlal Behl and function was presided over by Dr. Ramaranjan Mukherjee, the then Vice-Chancellor of the University of Burdwan. On 28th April 1981 the new college building was inaugurated by His Excellency, the Governor of West Bengal and the Chancellor of the University of Burdwan, Sri Trivuban Narayan Singh. Dr. Ramaranjan Mukherjee, the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Burdwan presided over this inaugural function.
After this the college never looked back. With the kind donations from Late Sohanlal Bahl, particularly in its formative stages, with able guidance of successive Vice-Chancellors and other officials of the University of Burdwan, with sincere perseverance by the teaching and non-teaching staff members of the college, with enthusiastic support and co-operation from the people of Jhalda and above all, with ever growing hunger for knowledge of the generations of students, Achhruram Memorial College has overcome all the hindrances to become what it is today, a youthful but matured premier academic institution of thirty-nine years.
A new phase has started in the history of the college since January 6 2011, as the College, along with all the other colleges of the district, is now affiliated to the newly formed Sidho-Kanho-Birsha University.

Q: Determinants of block matrices Let $A,B \in \mathbb{R}^{n,n}$.
Now $C = \begin{pmatrix}  A & iB \\ -iB & A \end{pmatrix}$ and $D = \begin{pmatrix} A & B \\ -B & A \end{pmatrix}$.
Show that $\det(C) \in \mathbb{R}$ and $\det(D) \ge 0$.
I tried to transform $C$ so I could use $\det \begin{pmatrix} E & F \\ 0 & G \end{pmatrix} = \det(E)\det(G)$, but I didn't manage to. I have no clue how to show $\det(D) \ge 0$.
I'd rather have hints than fully-fledged solutions. Thanks.

A: Here's a hint for (1): think about scaling the first $n$ rows by $-i$.
Still thinking about (2). I haven't worked this out, but I think considering the signed permutations way of calculating the determinant, and pairing $\sigma$ with $\sigma^{-1}$ might be helpful.
edit: Yeah, okay, just got back, have something kinda similar to levap. A matrix of the form $D$ is exactly a complex linear one, under the identification $\mathbb{R}^{2n} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^n$, where $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ has ordered basis $x_1, \ldots, x_n, y_1, \ldots, y_n$ and $\mathbb{C}^n$ $z_i = x_i + i y_i$.
With this, one knows as an operator on $\mathbb{C}^n$ one can write it in Jordan canonical form. If one has a Jordan block: $$\begin{pmatrix} \lambda & - & \ldots \\ & \lambda & \ldots \end{pmatrix}$$with basis $w_i$, setting $w_i = x'_i + iy'_i$, in the ordered basis $x_1', y_1', x_2', y_2' \ldots$, it's easy to check that $D$ has determinant $|\lambda|^r$, where $r$ is the size of the Jordan block.

A: *

*Consider $\begin{pmatrix}I\\&zI\end{pmatrix}C\begin{pmatrix}I\\&\bar{z}I\end{pmatrix}$ for some complex numbers $z$ of modulus 1.

*As invertible matrices are dense in the matrix space and determinant is a continuous function in matrix entries, we may assume that $A$ is invertible. Using the block determinant formula, we get $\det D = \det A \det(A+BA^{-1}B) = (\det A)^2\det(I+A^{-1}BA^{-1}B)$. Now for any real matrix $X$, argue why $\det(I+X^2)$ must be nonnegative.

A: I'll answer the question about $\det(D)$. Define the matrix
$$ J_0 = \left( \begin{array}{cc} 0 & -I \\ I & 0 \end{array} \right) \in \mathrm{GL}_{2n}(\mathbb{R})$$
and note that $J_0^2 = -I$ and that the matrix $J_0$ commutes with your matrix $D$. Now consider all matrices (and maps) as matrices over the complex numbers (on $\mathbb{C}^{2n}$). The matrix $J_0$ is diagonalizable over the complex number with eigenvalues $\pm i$. Denote the eigenspaces by
$$ V^{\pm} = \mathrm{ker}(J \pm iI) \subset \mathbb{C}^{2n}. $$
Each eigenspace is of complex dimension $n$ and the antilinear conjugation map $S : \mathbb{C}^{2n} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^{2n}$ given by
$$ S(z_1, \ldots, z_{2n}) = (\bar{z}_1, \ldots, \bar{z}_{2n})$$
exchanges between the eigenspaces $V^{+}$ and $V^{-}$. Since $J_0$ and $D$ commute, the spaces $V^{\pm}$ are $n$ dimensional complex invariant spaces of $D$. Considering $D$ as a linear map over $\mathbb{C}^{2n}$, we have
$$ \det(D) = \det(D_+) \det(D_{-}) = d_{+} d_{-} $$
where the maps $D_{\pm} : V^{\pm} \rightarrow V^{\pm}$ are just the restrictions of $D$ to the invariant subspaces $V^{\pm}$. Let us show that $\bar{d}_{+} = d_{-}$ and so $\det(D) = d_{+} \bar{d}_{+} = |d_{+}|^2 \geq 0$. Because $D$ is a real matrix, it commutes as a linear map with the complex conjugation $S$. This means we have the diagram
$$ \newcommand{\ra}[1]{\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\xrightarrow{\quad#1\quad}\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!}
\newcommand{\da}[1]{\left\downarrow{\scriptstyle#1}\vphantom{\displaystyle\int_0^1}\right.}
%
\begin{array}{llllllllllll}
V^{+} & \ra{D_{+}} & V^{+} \\
\da{S} & & \da{S} \\
V^{-} & \ra{D_{-}} & V^{-} \\
\end{array} $$
where $S$ is an antilinear isomorphism. If $S$ would be a linear isomorphism, it would imply that $\det(D_{+}) = \det(D_{-})$. Since $S$ is antilinear, it implies that the determinants must be conjugate.

This might look highly unmotivated if you are unfamiliar with the notion of a complex linear structure on a vector space. Under the identification of $\mathbb{C}^n$ with $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ given by
$$ (z_1, ..., z_n) = (x_1 + iy_1, ..., x_n + iy_n) \to (x_1, ..., x_n, y_1, ..., y_n) $$
the complex matrices $A + iB \in \mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{C})$ are identified with the matrices of the form $D$ in $\mathrm{GL}_{2n}(\mathbb{R})$. This matrices are complex linear and so commute with "multiplication by $i$", which corresponds under the identification to multiplication by $J_0$.

Free Mr. Bond:
Interview with Team FreeMrBond
The year 2016 has special significance in Dissident Right circles.
To a Dissident Rightist, "2016" is more than just a 365-day time span during which the most unlikely things were made real by the most unlikely of personalities. To us, "2016" is more than a moment in time and space. To the Dissident Rightist, the mere utterance of "2016" conjures up a collage of emotions and memories. (more…)

Nothing has given me more respect for the social media site Gab than watching other people try to do what Andrew Torba has done.
For many years, Gab was sort of a joke.

The Right-wing internet has been abuzz these last few days after the arrest of antifa terrorist Garrett James Smith, who was caught outside a Florida rally in support of January 6 prisoner Jeremy Brown. Because Baked Alaska was in attendance at this rally, people have been semi-ironically referring to the incident as the "failed assassination of Baked Alaska."
Garrett Smith, an antifa activist, had moved back to Florida from Portland, where he was presumably radicalized, two months ago. (more…)

Rush Limbaugh died earlier this year. Limbaugh had his sins, and I would not like to have been in Rush's sandals when St. Peter asked him why he did not support Pat Buchanan in 1996. At the pinnacle of Rush's zeitgeist, when he was the most listened-to man on the American Right, he might have been able to put Buchanan over the top in the primaries.
Despite that, I think Rush is one of the most significant cultural, if not political, figures of the last 50 years. He revolutionized the way people talk about politics. (more…)

Red Salute
In view of the spread of radical doctrine in our universities, the new photoplay at the Rivoli Theatre issues a symbolic warning to pacifist and liberal student organizations. If they persist in their unAmerican activities, Red Salute tells them, not only will Miss Barbara Stanwyck deny them her allegorical caresses but Mr. Robert Young will punch their noses. It is one of the weirdest exhibits to come out of Hollywood since that wartime masterpiece, The Beast of Berlin. With the subtlety of a steamroller and the satirical finesse of a lynch mob the film goes in for some of the most embarrassing chauvinism of the decade. (more…)

Dentures are a replacement for missing teeth that can be removed and put back into your mouth as you please. We utilize the best material, techniques and labs to fabricate natural looking and well fitting dentures. We only offer premium dentures that are well fitting and natural looking, unlike many offices which offer 'economy' dentures. Depending on each individual patient case, they may receive full or partial dentures. Full dentures are used when all of the natural teeth are removed from the mouth and replaced with a full set of dentures. Partial dentures are another option when not all of your teeth need to be removed. This is similar to a bridge, but it is not a permanent fixture in your mouth. Our office fabricates immediate dentures, which are dentures placed in your mouth on the same day your teeth are pulled so you NEVER go without teeth. We can also fabricate implant retained dentures which snap into implants and do not move. If you want to learn about receiving well fitting, natural looking dentures priced competitively, please contact us or call for more details at (513) 759-9090.

Q: Using Thor, can I pass the CLI an argument only (not a task) and send it to a default method/task? I am using Thor to create a CLI for a Ruby gem that I am making.  The executable would ideally take a command like myapp path/to/file, in the sense that I would rather the user not have to define a task, only an argument.
I've looked over the API but default_task only works when no task/argument is present.
How can I make Thor send this variable file argument to a default method/task, and not interpret it like a task that does not exist?

A: myapp path/to/file
two part answer:
1) myapp ... to use an executable other than 'thor' you will need to utilize the 'thor/runner' library.
2) path/to/file can be accomplished in the initialize method, like so:
class Something < Thor
  def initialize(*args)
    super
    case @path
      when /something$/; self.class.new([@path],options).do_run
    end
  end

  desc 'do_run', "do something"
  argument :path, :banner=>"path/to/file", :optional=>true
  def do_run
    # something
  end

Reportedly, Apple. Inc (AAPL) is to sell spare parts and tools to the general public to perform their own repairs on some iPhones and Mac computers. Apple started a program in 2019, allowing independent repair shops to buy its parts, tools, and manuals. The iPhone giant informed that there are now 2,800 independent shops in its program in addition to its 5,000 directly authorized repair providers.
The program will allow Apple customers to buy those parts directly to perform their own repairs after reading a manual. The service will first start online initially with about 200 parts and tools aimed at fixing the most common issues with batteries, displays, and cameras on iPhone 12 and 13 handsets and will eventually extend to Mac computers that use Apple's M1 chip and later to less common repairs.
The parts will be offered with the same pricing on parts and tools as independent repair shops. Customers will be offered to return their used parts to Apple after the repair to receive a discount. The iPhone giant informed that the program will begin early next year in the United States and will expand to more countries later in the year.

CSA Z – What is it? In September , CSA published the first Canadian Standard for Health. Care Facilities, which provides requirements and guidance. 1 Sep Preface This is the first edition of CSA Z, Canadian health care facilities. CSA acknowledges that the development of this Standard was. 16 Nov CSA Writes Prescription for the Design and Construction of Hospitals CSA's Z Health Care Facilities Standard is a voluntary standard.
This standard is being csa z8000 in the Cza Renewal Initiative. The tree-view patients took fewer and weaker pain medications, had fewer complications, and were discharged csa z8000 hospital sooner. Watch for more articles in the coming weeks about Z and evidence based design. The design process begins with the HCF defining its expected operational model and activities.
Not Logged In Member?: The studies looked at a wide range of issues including single-roms versus multi-bed rooms, noise, lighting, ventilation, and layout, with results of reducing medical errors, reducing stress, improving patient sleep, reducing patient pain and the need z80000 medications, as well as csa z8000 improved outcomes. You can change your cookie settings through your csa z8000. As one example, Section 6. Infection prevention and control is a major concern in health care facilities, and Z aligns with best csa z8000 in the Dsa.
The goal of this Standard is to ensure csa z8000 the outcomes of those under the care of [a Health Care Facility] are improved where design and construction can assist with these outcomes.
The standard covers operations, accessibility, safety and security, infection csa z8000, and sustainability. DRM is included at the request of the publisher, as it helps them protect their copyright by restricting file sharing. It then designs and constructs the physical infrastructure to support the defined model and activities.
What you can do with a Secure PDF: To achieve this requires a focus not only on safety and efficiency, but also on the impacts of the physical environment and atmosphere on the care outcome.
Notes accompanying clauses do csa z8000 include requirements or alternative requirements; the purpose of a note accompanying a clause is to separate from the text explanatory or informative material. The standard is available for sale online at http: CSA Standards is a division of CSA Group, which also consists of CSA International, which provides testing and certification services for electrical, mechanical, plumbing, gas and a variety of other products; and Csa z8000, a provider of consumer product evaluation, inspection and advisory services for retailers and manufacturers.
An HCF should provide the necessary environment so that csa z8000 can be offered in accordance csa z8000 the operational model. Two decades later, Ulrich in collaboration with Craig Zimring, Xiaobo Quan, Anjali Joseph, and Ruchi Choudhary reviewed thousands of scientific articles and identified more than quality studies showing that hospital design does impact clinical outcomes. The design of the [Health Care Facility] shall provide csa z8000, staff, and the public with external views wherever possible.
New national standard to help hospitals and other health care facilities reduce infections, plan for pandemics, protect newborns and the elderly, and care for obese patients.
It is intended to be used csa z8000 all facilities providing health care services regardless of type, size, csa z8000, or range of services. InScience Journal published Ulrich's study comparing the recovery of two groups of similar surgical patients. New national csa z8000 to help hospitals and other health care facilities reduce infections, plan for pandemics, protect newborns and the elderly, and care for obese patients CSA Standards, a leading standards-based solutions organization, today official announces the launch of the landmark Health Care Facilities Standard, the first comprehensive national standard in Canada to address the complex nature of planning, design, and construction of hospitals and health care facilities from coast to coast.
End users will include architects, designers, consultants, contractors, csa z8000, facility managers and engineers, infection prevention and control professionals, and occupational health and safety teams. They were placed on your computer when you launched this website. Notes to tables and figures are considered part of the table or csa z8000 and may csa z8000 written as requirements. The first scientific research supporting the theory that the physical envirnoment influences healing is credited to Roger Ulrich.
The csa z8000 excerpts from the introductory sections of the Z manual explain the purpose and intended use of the standard. Each health care csa z8000 building project undertaken in Canada has relied on the knowledge and resources available to the architects and consultants engaged.
Benefits of the standard include greater cost effectiveness, better management of both accessibility csa z8000 risk to patients, staff, and csa z8000 public, and the responsible caa of environmental concerns into the design and construction process. Annexes are designated normative mandatory or informative nonmandatory to define their application.
It covers inpatient areas, diagnostic and treatment areas, related services within a facility, and even technical and support services. It applies to all facilities providing health care services regardless of type, size, location, or range of services, including: Csa z8000 on standards and codes development, application products, training, advisory and personnel certification services, csa z8000 organization aims to enhance public safety, improve quality of life, preserve the environment and facilitate trade.
As a result csa z8000 th work of Ulrich and many others, "evidence based design" has become common in hospital planning – not only in areas such as efficiency and infection control, but also csa z8000 terms of creating a healing physical environment.


Published on October 22nd, 2018 by WSL Team | Issues Facing Seniors.
Aside from giving your loved one a safe living environment, a senior living community provides routines, entertainment, activities, and social interaction. All too often, socialization after moving into a community is only with other residents, staff, and occasional visits from friends, adult children, and siblings. However, interaction with young children can also benefit residents by providing happiness and a sense of belonging.
Many aging adults are mothers, fathers, aunts, and uncles who vividly remember dedicating hours to entertaining little ones. While rolling around on the floor or playing chase with a toddler may no longer be an option, the interaction seniors experience with little ones often brings them back to their more youthful memories.
When toddlers come barreling into the room, the excitement from seniors is unmistakable. Seniors are exceptionally helpful in teaching the developing minds of children, and in turn, the kids often get the seniors moving and exercising in ways they haven't in years. Stretching, bending down to the toddler's height, and moving around at the quick pace of a little one can be tiring—just ask any parent. This movement, though, is extremely beneficial to the physical health of aging adults.
As our loved ones age, we may notice they begin isolating themselves. To combat this, senior living communities provide many activities that offer residents the opportunity to build friendships and bonds with their peers. While residents' social communities are dynamic, they are generally limited to the company of older adults.
Programs that bring in school-aged children and toddlers can give residents a chance to enjoy the thrills of being a grandparent. During this intergenerational bonding, staff members often see residents laughing, teaching, and learning from the little ones.
Intergenerational interaction enriches your loved one's day-to-day life by improving happiness and giving a sense of belonging. Many residents are often confined to activities that suit their physical limitations. The benefit of interacting with children is that residents can participate to their own abilities. Having regularly scheduled interaction provides an activity that many residents look forward to all week long.
Intergenerational programs are becoming more and more prevalent in senior living communities due to the astonishing benefits for both seniors and children. The acceptance, knowledge, and excitement exchanged between the generations creates purpose and joy. Here at Wentworth Senior Living, we recently began offering a weekly program called Wiggles and Wisdom. During the session, young children, accompanied by a caregiver or parent, join the residents to enjoy upbeat songs, participate in crafts, read books, and utilize props such as maracas and other musical instruments.
When looking for senior living communities for your loved one, ask if they offer any intergenerational activities. And encourage your children and grandchildren to interact with older adults. It's a beneficial experience for all parties.


Do You Really Need To File A Tax Return?
As a U.S. taxpayer preparing to file your 2018 taxes, there are a few things you should consider. First, you will want to determine if you need to file and, if so, the best way to file for your situation.
For the tax year 2018, all individual taxpayers will file using the new Form 1040. Forms 1040A and 1040EZ are no longer available. Taxpayers who previously filed these forms will now file Form 1040. The new Form 1040 uses a "building block" approach allowing individuals to add only the schedules they need to their 2018 federal tax return. Taxpayers with more complicated returns will need to complete one or more of the new Form 1040 Schedules. This group of taxpayers includes those who claim certain deductions or credits, or who owe additional taxes.
If you filed your federal tax return electronically last year, you may not notice any changes, as the tax return preparation software will automatically use your answers to the tax questions to complete the Form 1040 and any needed schedules.
In most cases, income, filing status, and age determine if you must file a tax return. Other rules may apply if you are self-employed or if you are a dependent of another person. For example, if you are single and younger than age 65, you must file if your income was at least $12,000. This, of course, is just one example as there are many other instances when a taxpayer must file.
Am I eligible for certain refundable credits such as the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC)?
The scenarios presented above are oversimplified explanations as to whether or not someone needs to file a tax return. If you are uncertain, contact the IRS or a tax professional.
Some things are better not left to chance.

Flooding stops rice farmers sowing next crop in southern New South Wales
ABC Riverina
/ By Romy Stephens
Posted Mon 21 Nov 2022 at 10:13pm Monday 21 Nov 2022 at 10:13pm Mon 21 Nov 2022 at 10:13pm , updated Tue 22 Nov 2022 at 1:04am Tuesday 22 Nov 2022 at 1:04am Tue 22 Nov 2022 at 1:04am

abc.net.au/news/flooding-devastates-southern-nsw-rice-growers/101677310
Heavy rain and flooding have seen less than half the expected rice crop planted in some areas of the country, as the window to sow closes.
Southern NSW rice growers are still trying to sow rice amid flooding and heavy rain
In some areas, less than half of the intended rice crop has been sown
A rice grower says the export market could be impacted by yield reductions
In southern New South Wales, growers would typically be wrapping up sowing at this time of year.
Rice Growers' Association of Australia president Peter Herrmann says optimal sowing conditions have been replaced by an unseasonable amount of rain.
He says growers are still frantically trying to plant what they could.
"In theory, the window's still open but we've been saying this now for quite a few weeks and the weather keeps coming," Mr Herrmann said.
"Some poor families are in the situation where they haven't had the opportunity, despite their best preparations, to sow any rice crop this year."

Less than half the intended crop planted
Michael Chalmers is a rice grower at Wakool, west of Deniliquin, and chair of the local Rice Growers' Association branch.
While he managed to get half of his rice sown before the start of October, some of it was submerged for up to three weeks.
"It's drill-sown rice, which ironically doesn't want to be under water until about the end of November, so it's struggling along," he said.
Drill-down rice is planted directly into the soil and uses less water than aerial-sown rice.
Mr Chalmers said there would be a yield reduction and that counterparts in the Wakool region were even worse off.
"Talking to a good friend down the road, he's lost about 160 hectares of rice under floodwater — it's been under water for about a month," Mr Chalmers said.
"I would guess at the moment he has something like less than 40 per cent of the intended area planted."

After such a good year for the industry in 2021, Mr Chalmers says this year is a "bitter disappointment".
"Last year was a fantastic year, probably the best year I've ever seen for growing rice and this year's the polar opposite," he said.
'Tragedy' after a huge investment
At this stage, it is unclear how bad the losses are.
Mr Herrmann says it is a big blow for the industry after increased investment into this year's crop to cover high fertiliser costs.
"There's the opportunity cost of crops that aren't going to be sown," he said.
"Then there's the terribly distressing circumstances of losing crops that were so close, and that we had invested so much of our money in to produce.
"We're still in damage control mode so counting our losses is something we probably do in the middle of the night when we prefer to be sleeping."
Michael Chalmers' rice survived after being submerged. (Supplied: Michael Chalmers)
Mr Chalmers does not expect the domestic market to be impacted but things could be different overseas.
"Our export markets, probably there will be an effect given that there is a global rice shortage at the moment," he said.
Mr Herrmann says it is unclear what the coming months hold for growers, but he hopes the rain and flooding ease to ensure crop rotation can go ahead, which is vital for rice growers.
"We want that winter crop rotation, that pasture rotation, and inundation is not good for pastures," he said.

OU report calls for action on barriers to student nursing with hundreds of places vacant

One in 20 places on university nursing courses was vacant at the beginning of the academic year, new research suggests.
The data secured by The Open University under the Freedom of Information Act indicates this is the equivalent of 1,450 potential nurses.
Published on Thursday, the Breaking Barriers To Nursing report indicates that if all places to study nursing are filled each year, 10,100 more nurses could be fully qualified in 10 years' time, with a further 4,340 still studying.
This would fill 13% of the forecast nursing deficit, it says.
According to the research, the cost of study or living away from home, and concerns about repaying student loans were the most significant obstacles to those interested in becoming a registered nurse.
Other important issues were travel, entry requirements and workload.
Using data from the Health Foundation and Ucas, the report says on average, around a quarter (24%) of students drop out before completing their study – 6,740 from each intake.
Sally Boyle, from The Open University, said: "It is devastating that at a time when the healthcare sector is under enormous pressure there are so many people who are being deterred from pursuing a nursing career.
"Something must be done to overcome the issues of under-subscription and trainee attrition, so that the NHS and other healthcare providers can continue to provide safe patient care.
"There are a number of barriers to studying nursing that can be easily addressed if Higher Education Institutions, healthcare employers and the Government work together to take advantage of available technologies and initiatives, such as flexible technology-enabled learning and apprenticeships.
"By ensuring that the maximum possible number of nurses are training and registering each year, the sector will have better access to the nurses it urgently needs."
A Department of Health spokesman said: "Nursing is an incredibly rewarding career and with a 4.5% increase in applications to nursing and midwifery courses, more students are keen to join the 52,000 nurses currently in training.
"We recently introduced hardship funding to better support nurses in training and as part of our Long Term Plan we have provided funding to increase nurse training places by 25%, and our People Plan later this year will secure the staff the NHS needs for the future."
A Universities UK spokesman said: "Since the removal of the bursary, universities have worked hard to fill degree courses for nursing students.
"In line with our wider suggestions on student support, we urge Government to listen to our calls – made with the Royal College of Nursing – to invest in maintenance grants for nursing.
"Without sufficient funding, workforce shortages will deepen and place an increasing burden on existing staff and risk to patient care."
– The Open University issued FoI requests to 77 Higher Education Institutions in the UK, of which 55% responded.

Christian Fennesz
Christian Fennesz (born 25 December 1962) is an Austrian guitarist active in electronic music, often credited on albums simply as Fennesz. Fennesz uses guitar and notebook computers to make multilayered compositions that blend melody and conventional musical instruments with harsh, irregular glitch-influenced sounds and washes of white noise. He lives and works in Vienna, Austria. Fennesz was born and raised in Austria and studied music formally in art school. He started playing guitar around the ages 8 or 9. He became involved in the Viennese techno scene of the early 1990s. From there on, he began to collect his own equipment and produce music based loosely around guitar and synthesizer sounds. Since the 1990s, Fennesz played live with Ryuichi Sakamoto, with British electroacoustic improvisation icon Keith Rowe, and with American pop group Sparklehorse.

At 14 years old I borrowed $50 to buy a used lawnmower. I repaired it and started my first business. After a long hot Colorado summer of self-induced hard labor, I made enough money to pay back my loan with interest (to my Mom) and buy my first film camera – aPentax K1000. Photography was a passion of mine from the get-go. After giving up the idea of under water welding and demolition, I decided to chase my dreams:art and photography. At the age of 20, I decided to get to work and start a film career. After my short stint in the art department world ended, after a 38 hour workday onMotley Crue's "Dr. Feelgood" video, I once again turned to my true passion: photography. I worked my way up through the camera ranks and kept my eyes open along the way. Twenty something years later, I'm now proud to be "an overnight success story"

A bit about me and Hans
I came to art as a very young child. I remember asking for a sketch book for a birthday or Christmas present when I was maybe six or seven. My mom bought me a small, grey-covered ringed sketchbook. In fact, I still have it. It's filled with marker drawings of superheroes of my own design and pencil sketches of my dog. Though it was the first of many, I will always keep the first evidence of my love of art close to my heart.
One of my first memories about art was during the brief appearance of Halley's Comet in the winter of 1985. I had just turned eight. I remember my dad waking us from our beds in Killeen, TX, to bring us outside in the cold winter air. (Even in Texas, it did get cold in the winter). We peered up into the clear night sky with my dad's binoculars, looking at that fuzzy-tailed smudge of light a million miles away. At that time, I was head-over-heels in love with astronomy. I had read every book in the elementary school library about the stars and planets. I remember being so excited to have seen a comet that I stayed up for an hour or more after seeing it to draw a pastel image of it, seen through the black borders caused by the binoculars. I wish I still had that picture, because that was the day that I knew I wanted to be an artist. After that, there was no stopping me from drawing. I eventually graduated with a degree in Studio Art and Art History, with a concentration in Illustration.
In contrast to my early discovery of art-making, I came to be an art historian much later, but it really started with a love affair with Bernini and Michelangelo in the ninth and tenth grades. I didn't know it then, but flipping through some art books was going to change my life. The love intensified in college under two wonderful professors who encouraged me and taught me to teach through their own actions. After many years of toil, a year abroad in Rome, and after meeting many wonderful friends, I eventually earned my master's degree and my Ph.D. in Art History. I now teach college-level students in New York City to find the beauty and humor of art.
Though I work by day as a professor of Art History, my first love will always be creating art. When I'm drawing, I feel like that child again.
As for Hans, our story is twenty years old. I had always loved fairy tales and myths as a child. One of my favorite books is still the compilation entitled, "The Magic Tree and other Tales." I was first introduced to "Hans My Hedgehog" through Jim Henson's The Storyteller series that briefly ran on TV. The script was so gorgeous and the visuals left an indelible mark on me. The next year, we moved to northern Germany with my father, who was stationed there. One day I was playing with a friend at a nearby park and we saw something moving in the grass. It was a little, spiked ball. I knew immediately what we were seeing, and at that moment, I do not think I had ever been more excited. We picked up the tiny hedgehog and carried him home. Looking back on it, we never should have done that, for a myriad of reasons, but he was soft and adorable and I was 12 and didn't know any better. We only kept him for a few days before returning him to nature. Ever since then, I have loved those prickly little creatures.
"Hans-My-Hedgehog" Copyright 2007 Jessica Boehman. Pencil.
This illustration came to life in Rome. I had a pad of paper and a pencil and no other art supplies except for a pen and one red marker. Here, I rediscovered my love of drawing, and decided to illustrate a scene from my favorite Grimm's tale:
"When Hans-My-Hedgehog had them, he said, "Father, go to the blacksmith's and have my cock-rooster shod, then I will ride away and never again come back." The father was happy to get rid of him, so he had his rooster shod, and when it was done, Hans-My-Hedgehog climbed on it and rode away. He took pigs and donkeys with him, to tend in the forest. In the forest the rooster flew into a tall tree with him. There he sat and watched over the donkeys and the pigs. He sat there for years, until finally the herd had grown large. His father knew nothing about him. While sitting in the tree, he played his bagpipes and made beautiful music. One day a king came by. He was lost and heard the music. He was amazed to hear it, and sent a servant to look around and see where it was coming from. He looked here and there but only saw a little animal sitting high in a tree. It looked like a rooster up there with a hedgehog sitting on it making the music."
So that's how I've rendered him, in that moment of making magic with his pipes, up in the tree, calling a siren song and a lullaby to donkeys, pigs and kings.
Hans-My-Hedgehog

Paralyzed toddler manages to recover and takes his first steps at 2 years old with hospital staff cheering him on
By Floyd Levinson Family Relationships February 19, 2021
This toddler started suffering from transverse myelitis and was paralyzed from the neck down when he arrived at the Akron Children's Hospital in Ohio. He was completely paralyzed when he was taken to the hospital. His family had to watch the zippy young toddler lose the ability to use his limbs. But thankfully, with the support of all the medical staff, who called themselves Alaric's Army, the little boy was able to get back on his feet.
The boy went from "being a spunky running little boy to almost paralyzed! Alaric was diagnosed with transverse myelitis; basically, his immune system is attacking his nerves!" said the mother who also has three daughters. "He has a severe swelling in his spinal cord which causes his arms to be numb and lifeless and partly his legs as well…"
The hospital began Alaric's treatment, but it was clear that his recovery would take a while. "On December 20, he finally displayed some intentional movement, and the hard work started there. Small but mighty, Alaric worked as hard as he could with his beloved physical therapists twice a day."
While suffering from a disease that can lead to inflammation and injury of the spinal cord, Alaric still managed to get those at the hospital to fall in love with him. As he spent his days at the hospital, he would accompany his father and go around the hospital meeting people along the way.
"To pass the time, Alaric and his dad, Dustin, would take long walks through the hospital, making friends with everyone they passed. Alaric's Army—hospital staff, family, and friends from near and far- supported and cheered him on during his entire hospital stay," the hospital added.
After treatment that stretched on for more than a month, Alaric had shown great improvement and finally, when it was time for him to go home, the staff created a special setting for him to before he walked out of the hospital.
A mini "road" was laid out in the hallway with a banner that said "I DID IT!" at the finish line.
When the day for him to go home arrived, Alaric crossed the finish line with a smile of pure glee, and he fell into the arms of one of his physical therapists before being discharged. The staff shared the joyful moment with the little boy, and the hospital added on Facebook, "It was a very exciting day to send Alaric home and see all the incredible progress he has made!" His elated father also wrote: "So proud of our son. He was brought into Akron children's hospital by the squad and was paralyzed from the neck down. Today he walked out of the hospital on his own two feet." Check out the incredible walk of recovery and freedom here.
