Continuing resolutions and new directions
Peter F. Cohn, MD, Editor-in-Chief
Cardiology Review® Online, February 2007, Volume 24, Issue 2
Cardiology Review
February is oftentimes the month that New Year's resolutions begin to slip away, but here at , our resolutions are either continuing or just beginning to take hold. For example, this issue once again contains Maintenance of Certification questions for physicians preparing for the exam in Cardiovascular Disease, a feature we first resolved to begin at the start of 2006. This will continue to appear in the even months throughout 2007, and those issues will now also feature another new section we've been planning—regular coverage of cardiac imaging. These imaging case studies will cover common (and even not so common) medical conditions in a concise style, drawing on electrocardiograms, chest x-rays, magnetic resonance images, computed tomography, and echocardiography to present an illustrated clinical discussion. The inaugural case is by our consultant board member Dr Joseph Dell'Orfano, and discusses cardiac resynchronization. (If you'd like to speak with section editor Dr Tasneem Z. Naqvi about contributing a case, please contact
) Of course, the publication will also continue to feature the articles, case reports, and commentaries that have been its staple. This month, for example, we have a study from Dr Brian Henderson and associates from the United Kingdom, who examined the associations between a potential biomarker of cardiovascular disease (heat shock protein 60) and diabetes. They enrolled 855 patients with diabetes and found higher levels of this circulating mitochondrial stress protein in those patients with diabetes with overt evidence of cardiovascular disease. Dr Naqvi, one of our new editorial consultants, raises some caveats to the authors' conclusions, including the nonspecificity of this biomarker. In the arrhythmia section, a report by Drs Elizabeth J. Masterson and Alan H. Kadish addresses the timing of implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) in patients with nonischemic cardiomyopathies. In their study of 458 patients, the authors found that even patients with a very recent diagnosis of nonischemic cardiomyopathy can benefit from ICD placement, and this treatment should be undertaken once reversible causes of left ventricular dysfunction have been excluded. The very busy Dr Dell'Orfano once again contributes his thoughts on this approach in a commentary. Our final article is in the hypertension section. Dr Susan G. Lakoski and colleagues analyzed the value of C-reactive protein in predicting the future risk of developing hypertension in a young adult cohort. As Dr Samuel Mann notes in his commentary, proving such a relationship would allow for earlier and more aggressive prevention and treatment of hypertension. Lastly, and in keeping with another of our resolutions, we'd like to welcome another new member to our editorial and consultant board—Kathleen Wyne. I also want to offer a special word of thanks to Bill Little, whose role at the American Board of Internal Medicine has forced him to leave the board—at least for the present.

PERFORMANCE: A fax server failure has led to a backlog in cancer waits in Berkshire.
Primary care trust cluster board papers said that in month four of 2012-13, performance against the two week wait standard dropped, with 91.1 per cent of patients seen within two weeks following an urgent GP referral.
The target was 93 per cent, leaving the area with a red year to date rating . The papers said: "In July a technical problem with the fax server occurred. This was the first failure of its kind in 10 years.
"Operational procedures for checking the fax server daily are in place. However, these were not followed correctly by booking centre staff, leading to a lack of awareness of the problem.
Operating procedures were also not followed at Heatherwood and Wexham Park's Parapet Breast Unit. Administrative staff had been recording referral dates incorrectly.

Back to former Massachusetts governors
Gov. Nathaniel Prentice Banks
Passed September 1, 1894
Birth State Massachusetts
Family Married Mary Theodosia Palmer; three children
National Office(s) Served Representative
Military Service Army
NATHANIEL P. BANKS, who served under five different party affiliations during his political career, was born in Waltham, Massachusetts on January 30, 1816. His early education was attained in the common schools of his native state. For a while, he worked as a machinist in a cotton factory, and later, edited a local paper in Waltham. Resuming his education, Banks studied law, was admitted to the bar in 1839, and then established his legal career in Boston. Banks entered politics in 1849, serving as a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives, a position he held three years. He also served as speaker of the house from 1851 to 1852, was a member of the 1853 Massachusetts Constitutional Convention, and served as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from 1853 to 1857. In 1857, Banks won election to the Massachusetts governorship. He was sworn into office on January 7, 1858, becoming the twenty-fifth governor to serve the state. Banks was reelected to a second term in 1859, and to a third term in 1860. After completing his term, Banks left office on January 3, 1861. For the next four years, he served in the Civil War, first as a major general of volunteers, and later as the commander of the 5th Corps. After his military duty, he returned to his political career. He served again in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1865 to 1873, 1875 to 1879 and 1889 to 1891. He also served as a member of the Massachusetts State Senate in 1874, and was the U.S. Marshal from 1879 to 1888. Governor Nathaniel P. Banks passed away on September 1, 1894, and was buried at the Grove Hill Cemetery in Waltham, Massachusetts.

Best Elective Care Recovery Initiative
Beyond the direct pressure of covid-19 on healthcare services, the long-term impact of missed appointments and the elective care backlog, from diagnosis and early intervention to treatment, is extremely pronounced. Data shows a 46% increase in patients waiting more than two years for treatment over April and May. While difficult to quantify, the detrimental impact of missed diagnoses and later-stage interventions is also widely acknowledged. The NHS is playing catchup on top of the lasting strain of the covid-19 pandemic.
This award is for a supplier or service provider to the NHS supporting elective care recovery efforts, with proven outcomes that significantly reduce the backlog and/or contribute significantly to diagnosis and earlier-stage intervention on a large scale.
Entrants can be any private or not-for-profit sector organisation working in partnership with NHS or public health organisations in response to covid-19 at a local or regional level.
Evidence of outcomes must be provided, along with initial assessment of scope and method
Describe the scope of the project including scale of challenge and all relevant partners
What were the brief and the goals set?
What measures were set to ensure expectations were met?
Describe how the project was conceived and implemented in a quick and agile fashion
What have been the results on the ground for both healthcare professionals and patients?
Provide detailed evidence of improvements achieved and how they were delivered
What challenges were met in project implementation and how did the solution provider work with the healthcare system at overcoming these?
Provide testimonial evidence from staff and/or patients that have benefitted from the project
What efforts have been made by the partnership to ensure others are gaining from the experience?
How could the learnings from this project be applied in future national pandemic preparedness plans?
What was the level of interaction between partners in terms of project concept, development and realisation?
How has the partnership involved collaboration with patients and end-users within the NHS, and to what extent was this prioritised given the need for a quick and agile implementation?
Provide testimonial evidence from each party within the partnership surrounding their level of involvement and engagement, and how they have consequently benefited.
How has the project contributed to the lifesaving efforts of the health system in response to Covid-19 in the mid- to longer-term?
Has the partnership resulted in any improvements to services or patient experience that will remain applicable long beyond the Covid-19 response?
Provide supporting information to substantiate any claims here.

Judith Jáuregui will begin 2019 on January 25th at the Auditorio de la Hospedería Fonseca in what will be the second concert of the Beethoven Actual series organised there in collaboration with the CNDM (Centro Nacional de Difusión Musical, the Spanish National Centre for the Diffusion of Music). Judith arrives in Salamanca "with the anticipation of a student who returns to their alma mater", as this is a town that brings back so many memories from her postgraduate years at the Conservatoire of Castilla y León studying with the extraordinary pianist and maestro Claudio Martínez Mehner, "someone gifted with an amazing head for music, and the first person from whom I received a more analytical teaching of music" says Jáuregui. "I have fantastic memories of the town from my time there, its culture, the musical environment at the Conservatoire… it was my first destination, the first time I truly left home, and that is why I hold Salamanca so dear to my heart" she adds.
And she will be back with one of her greatest projects of the season, the Beethoven Sonatas no. 2, 4, 13 and 25, which the audience will be able to enjoy alongside the modernity of various studies by Ligeti and the piece 'Study in Stride' commissioned to José Luis Greco, one of Jáuregui's favourite current composers.
A few days later, on January 28th, she will fly to Vigo to offer the concert 'Pour le tombeau de Claude Debussy' in the Afundación Auditorium, her tribute to the French maestro in which – in addition to works by the said composer - she will play others by authors related to him, such as Falla, Liszt, Ravel and Chopin. Judith comments that she is "delighted to return to Philharmonic Society of Vigo, of which I have beautiful memories from my first performance there in 2014".
Full of energy and at an excellent moment in her career Judith Jáuregui now begins the second leg of the 2018/2019 season, one in which she has already received a number of fantastic reviews. Highlights include Joaquín Valdeón's article (La Nueva España) about her concert with the Signum Quarttet in the Piano Days cycle at the Príncipe Felipe Auditorium in Oviedo, in which he observed that "Jáuregui possesses a lyricism of beautiful quality and warmth and the "Signum" was up to the task with exemplary sonority", and Alejandro Fernández's (La Opinión de Málaga) recording of the fabulous reception of her recital at the Philharmonic Society in the Málaga, from which he concluded the following: "the maturity of her piano is not only technically flaring, but rather a shared reflection, the evocation of nostalgic extremes that culminate in a series of musical brush strokes of great plasticity".


Greenroofs are increasingly being recognized as an effective site level best management practice (BMP) to reduce the volume of stormwater runoff in urban environments. For some water quality constituents, greenroofs can improve runoff water quality but recent studies demonstrate greenroofs are sources rather than sinks of phosphorus (P). Accordingly, further research is required to evaluate treatment technologies that improve the performance of these BMPs. This study examined the use of two engineered media types to reduce phosphorus loadings from a greenroof located on the Archetype Sustainable House at Kortright in Vaughan, Ontario. A treatment system was installed to capture and remove P in stormwater runoff using sorptive properties of an engineered media. A mass balance approach was used to evaluate pre and post-treatment water quality. Pre and post-treatment water samples were collected for 25 rainfall events from July 11, 2009 to August 22, 2010 and analyzed for soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP), total phosphorus (TP), suspended solids (SS) and total dissolved solids (TDS). Storm events ranged in return frequencies from < 2 years to 35 year periods. The results show that the greenroof was a consistent source of P. The volume weighted mean concentrations were 0.769 mg/L and 0.630 mg/L for 2009 and 2010 events, respectively. The media used in 2009 reduced SRP loadings by 32.0% and TP loadings by 25.4%. The media evaluated in 2010, reduced SRP loadings by 82.4% and TP loadings by 86.6%. The greater P removal demonstrated by the 2010 media is attributed to a higher specific surface area and increased P sorptive capacity. Results of this study will help inform the use of sorptive materials in greenroof applications and a wider range of best management practices for stormwater quality treatment.

Emergency: "Emergency Bill" Hands Massive $$$ to Vast Corporations, May Crush Small Businesses
March 25, 2020 • by Charlotte Walker
Chairs are stacked in a closed Cafe in Manhattan on March 16, 2020 in New York City. – Stocks tumbled on March 16, 2020 despite emergency central bank measures to prop up the virus-battered global economy, as countries across Europe started the week in lockdown and major US cities shut bars and restaurants. The virus has upended society around the planet, with governments imposing restrictions rarely seen outside wartime, including the closing of borders, home quarantine orders and the scrapping of public events including major sporting fixtures. (Photo by Johannes EISELE / AFP) (Photo by JOHANNES EISELE/AFP via Getty Images)
After coming to agreement during the wee hours of Wednesday morning, the Senate's Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act"), will be voted on today. The bill has left a turgid wake of debate regarding support for families and the elderly versus small versus big business, the conditions that should be placed on that support, particularly for big business and if any support for big business should even be considered.
The key provisions of the $2 trillion stimulus package, which have rapidly evolving as Republicans and Democrats negotiated, are shown below in an abbreviated format as of March 25, 2020. Please note that the full text of the bill is still not available on www.congress.gov, and many members of Congress have also not had the opportunity to review it:
Direct cash payments of $1,200 to many Americans – estimated at over $300 billion;
$367 billion for forgivable loans to small businesses to cover payroll, employee leave, rent, and other expenses;
$500 billion in emergency relief to businesses, states, and cities through the U.S. Treasury, including $425 billion in loan guarantees. This includes $50 billion for airlines, $8 billion for cargo air firms, and $17 billion for firms deemed critical to U.S. national security. This measure includes a prohibition against stock buybacks by corporations that receive federal dollars and imposes a two-year limit on executive compensation. In addition, new text has been added so that disbursement will now be overseen by an oversight board and the Treasury will create a special independent inspector general to scrutinize lending decisions and detect abusive or fraudulent behavior.
The Bill now also includes bail out funds for farms in the form of an estimated $20 billion of additional appropriations for the Agriculture Department;
Expanded unemployment insurance, offering workers an additional $600 a week for four weeks, with waivers of the ordinary requirements that applicants look for work or go through a waiting period to get benefits; and
Other provisions include $150 billion for state and local emergency aid and $130 billion for hospitals.
This massive economic relief package is estimated to total $2 trillion or more and counting including tax credits and deferments, far exceeding anything imagined under the 2008 $700 billion TARP (Troubled Asset Relief Program) and the Auto Industry bailout. And, while it contains many positive and proactive provisions that will bring relief to many in the devastating economic situation we find ourselves in, will the bill come soon enough for small business, hospitals and healthcare providers? Further, should the American taxpayer be in the business of bailing out big business? Or, as critics say, providing corporate welfare?
To put all of this into perspective, small businesses have been the fastest and hardest hit in the current Coronavirus pandemic as towns and cities have closed down all non-essential businesses. And, they are, arguably, the most important engine of our economy. There are approximately 30 million small businesses (under 500 employees) in the United States. They employ almost half (49.2%) of the private sector workforce and have historically created 2 out of every 3 (64%) of the net new jobs in this country. Small businesses also lead the way in innovation generating, as an example, 16 times more patents per employee compared to larger companies.[1] However, small businesses rarely have significant cash reserves, relying on the capital and savings of their owners, who by the way earn less than their big corporate counterparts. And, their health insurance is higher cost due to their smaller scale. They also have extraordinarily high borrowing costs, very often in the high teens, as a percent, for working capital or long-term loans, due to the lenders' perceived higher risk associated with small business. As I write, many small businesses – some sources estimate more than 50% – are already out of business or are hanging by a thread and may never recover, putting in jeopardy the chances of a strong economic recovery in the aftermath. If you ever wondered why the economy has left so many behind in the past decade or more, look no further than our country's waning support for small businesses, their limited access to loans and capital, the seeds of which were planted well before this crisis. Small business formation was already in crisis before this epidemic as reported by the Kaufmann Foundation[2].
Because small businesses are owned by one to a few people relying on their own capital and savings, versus banks or venture capitalists, for working capital, Government relief for small business will go directly into the hands of these entrepreneurs, also taxpayers, who need it and can immediately put it to work for their business and their local economies with a multiplier impact.
In contrast, larger businesses, which often have passive stakeholders, are generally more stable and may have global operations with employees far and wide, have more access to capital through public and private markets and also have significantly lower borrowing costs and both short and long-term bank borrowing facilities. Yet, big business is the largest beneficiary in this program. Why are we the taxpayers even in this mix to bail them out?
What greater theater than the public markets, the big banks, and the economy itself to test the worthiness of a large corporation? Let the big banks, who taxpayers helped bail out in the last recession, step-up to the plate. Too big to fail? What company, really, is too big to fail in this equation now or ever? The debate still lingers as to whether the government should have bailed out the auto industry on that argument. And, the jury is still out. The inequity, at the time, struck this writer very hard. Here were American taxpayers, many of whom had significantly lower wages and benefits than American auto workers, lending a hand. Would have it been better to allow General Motors and others to go through a bankruptcy work-out, potentially emerging stronger, more competitive and more innovative? It would have hurt. But, frankly, healthier auto companies would have likely picked-up a lot of that slack and our economy might have been stronger as a result. We will never know. Let's not do that again.
This bill should have been broken-up. Without the big business component, which stirs up so many important debates, CARES would pass quickly. Congress should be given the time to properly debate the long-term merits and consequences, especially to our democracy and our capital formation process, of shoring up large corporations. And, if the Senate does continue that debate and moves to do just that, make darn sure that the American taxpayer is a beneficiary and not just the management and shareholders of that corporation. Longer term, Congress should be turning its attention to significant reform to current policies and practices which disallow the success of small business formation and access to capital while favoring only large corporations.

A cute green and pink nursery that my little one can grow with.
The whole room was decorated around the colors and style of the bedding.
I like to use different patterns and textures togethers as well as different shades of one color.
I looked at several things on etsy and then just figured out how to do it myself like the two pics with her name and alphabet. I also added to several things that I bought ex:( The lamp- I added ribbon around the shade....and I also added ribbon to the square mirror) I spray painted some things.
My favorite Items are the two alphabet pics.
Have fun with it and don't rush it all comes together with time.
What exact shade of green did you use? It's really pretty and it's relaxing and soothing to the senses. The butterflies really add a feminine loveliness to the room decor.
Spirit Whisper from Behr at Home Depot in a semi gloss.
How did you do the stencil and where did you get it?? Great job!
Where did you get the bedding? Love!

Ask if there are any other environmental issues, ordinances or requirements that might impact your project. This applies whether you are considering a home on acreage, on a city lot, a commercial project, or any other category of building.
Most governmental agencies try to be informed, but from personal experience, I have learned that one sector sometimes doesn't get all the information from another sector, which could affect your decision to proceed with your project.
Good luck – I hope your experience is positive!

This week's challenge…. Still Life. I am not a big fan of still life. I am not attracted to them when i see them and I have always thought of them as a bit sad, and lonely-looking. So… what I learned this week, is that they don't have to be. I am learning that a person can paint whatever they want to… and however they want to. I think it is best to just paint, and it seems like your style just emerges. I believe there is no "right" style. Different styles will appeal to different people. It is important to like what you do.
Painting glassware is something I hadn't done before either. I like how they turned out. I also started the week by painting 7 panels each a different background colour and working with it. I ended up with some interesting mixes.
Now… what shall I do this coming week? Perhaps a week of sketching since I will be on the road a bit.


Today, I'm working on my Chromebook in our living room. The house is quiet, it's a beautiful day out, and I have a lot to get done.
Sometimes, when I have a lot on my plate, I notice that I benefit from a change of scenery. Plus, my Chromebook tends to help me focus a lot more on my writing and my work.
Working in my living room means I get to choose from a lot of sitting options – none of which are a desk, of course. I have two big recliners – one leather, one cloth – and a very comfortable couch.
For today's writing, I chose my leather La-Z-Boy recliner. I bought this on an ill-advised purchase, brand new, 6 years ago. I put it on a credit card like an idiot.
But financial decisions aside, I love this chair with all my heart. Sure, it's a little scratched up from my cats' back claws, but it has served me well. It's big, soft, comfortable, and everything a man could want in a big brown leather recliner.
As I've been working in this chair today, my mind is flashing back to 2008.
I was running a faltering business and just moved into the upper level of a duplex. It was a tiny, tiny apartment, but it served my needs just fine (really lousy landlords aside).
It was going to be great. How many people are sitting in amazing recliners while they work, anyway? I'd be uber-comfortable, and I'd get to work in the living room, which is what I wanted.
As the months rolled by, however, I realized I made a foolhardy decision.
There were a couple reasons for this. First, a recliner is not made to be comfortable at a desk. So having to lean forward to work on my little desk was not exactly the best for me ergonomically.
The other reason is that it totally took the pleasure out of sitting in this chair. If I'm working in the same chair I relax in, how do I relax? This was a time when my business-related stress was at an all-time high. Switching between working and relaxing in my chair just didn't work.
When else do we deal with "too much of a good thing"?
Off the top of my head, I can think of my diet.
In college and post-college, I reveled in the fact that A) I was a skinny guy and B) I could decide what I wanted to eat all the time!
Pizza rolls? Skittles? Soda? Chocolate milk? Chips? Cereal? All part of a weekly menu, right?
Jump to today and I'm a little overweight, I deal with various digestive issues, and I can't chew consistently on one side of my mouth because I had a terrible cavity on my back tooth because of all the sugar I used to eat.
Too much of a good thing can be bad for you.
Sometimes, you have to bite the bullet and do things you don't want to do.
If you want to relax whenever you want and eat whatever feels good, I hope you like being fat, because you will be.
If you don't want to think about work past the 9-5 hours, and you just want to do the bare minimum to get ahead, I hope you like being in debt and always worrying about money, because you will be.
If you want to be happy long-term, sometimes you have to choose to be uncomfortable a little bit. You have to choose the less-desirable option.
Steve Kamb of Nerd Fitness talks about just getting over it and doing the work. He calls it "putting on your hard hat". It's a great way of thinking about this.
Choosing what you need to do over what you want to do is usually an unhappy decision, but there's an unintended consequence.
That thing you like to do? You'll enjoy it a heck of a lot more.
Those sweets taste better when they're a little reward instead of a staple of your diet. Relaxing on the couch feels amazing after you've put in a day of work and squeezed in some exercise.
And this recliner is the most comfortable thing in the world when I'm not working in it every day.
So, as Steve says, put on your hard hat. Make the tough choice. Do what you don't want to do and limit yourself a little bit. Life will be much more rewarding – I promise.

The programs were highlighted during an event at the Department of Conservation and Recreation's (DCR) Quabbin Reservoir Visitors Center where the Department of Energy Resources (DOER) funded the installation of a biomass wood furnace in 2008. The system, which is fueled with a wood pellet renewable heating source, has since reduced DCR's fuel oil usage and costs at the visitor's center by more than 60 percent, an average of $30,000 in annual savings over the last three years.
"As communities and individuals continue to adopt clean energy solutions through these programs, the Massachusetts clean energy economy grows. It's a vibrant sector already that employs 80,000 workers and grew by 11.8 percent from 2012 to 2013," said Massachusetts Clean Energy Center CEO Alicia Barton.
"As the steward of more than 450,000 acres of parkland and thousands of buildings across the Commonwealth, DCR facilities have a variety of energy needs." said DCR Commissioner Jack Murray "Improving their energy efficiency is vital to our agency's continued success."
Heating and cooling make up approximately one third of Massachusetts' total energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions. The average Massachusetts household spends $1,700 annually on heating, with the majority of that money flowing out of the region for fossil fuel energy sources such as oil, propane, and natural gas.
Renewable heating and cooling technologies, including solar, biomass, and advanced biodiesel heating, and high-efficiency heat pumps and district heating and cooling systems, can reduce harmful emissions and support economic growth by keeping energy dollars in the Commonwealth.
The Schools and Public Housing Integrating Renewables and Efficiency (SAPHIRE) Program is funded by a $715,000 federal U.S. Department of Energy grant to provide K-12 public schools and state public housing with feasibility grants for biomass and solar thermal heating, heat pumps and district heating and cooling projects.
SAPHIRE projects can then leverage $10M in federal, low-cost bond financing and Mass Save® energy efficiency rebates. SAPHIRE projects can also supplement financing with Alternative Compliance Payments (ACP) grants through the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center (MassCEC) and the Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD).
ACP funds are paid by electric retail suppliers if they have insufficient Renewable or Alternative Energy Certificates to meet their compliance obligations under the Renewable and Alternative Portfolio Standard programs. DOER establishes the plan for use of these funds to support clean energy development in the Commonwealth.
The Commonwealth Solar Hot Water program, funded with $9 million from MassCEC provides grants for solar thermal hot water heating projects. The grants are available for residential, commercial, non-profit and public building projects.
The Low-Income Energy Affordability Network (LEAN), funded with $1 million from the MassCEC, provides grants to funding assistance to renewable thermal projects at low-income housing facilities.
Renewable Thermal Commercial Pilot Grants, funded with $4.3 million in ACP funds and administered by MassCEC, provide funding for commercial biomass, geothermal heat pumps, and district heating and cooling projects.
District heating and cooling systems use a single heat source to heat and cool multiple buildings through a system of pipes and can provide space heating, air conditioning and hot water. Ideal locations for district heating and cooling are college and school campuses, and municipalities or businesses with multiple closely-situated facilities.
The funds are available to municipalities for public buildings, K-12 public schools, non-profit businesses and greenhouses. K-12 public schools participating in the SAPHIRE program are eligible to leverage grant funding from this program.
The Renewable Thermal Business Investment Financing program, funded with $3 million in ACP funds, will provide financial support to establish or expand distribution, manufacturing or marketing of renewable thermal technologies in Massachusetts.
Leading by Example (LBE) Clean Energy Grants, funded with $2.5 million in ACP funds, will fund biomass, heat pumps, solar hot water, and combined heat and power projects. The grants are available to state agencies, authorities and public colleges and universities.
The Clean Energy Program at state public housing authority facilities was launched in 2012 with $2 million in ACP funds. This DHCD program is underway and has spurred numerous renewable heating and cooling projects throughout the Commonwealth.
"We can and should lead, not just on cleaner electricity, but also with cleaner forms of heating and cooling. I am thrilled to see the Patrick Administration use the tools provided by the Legislature to advance these goals and to keep Massachusetts out in front on clean energy matters, creating jobs and protecting our environment," said Senator Benjamin B. Downing, Senate Chair of the Joint Committee on Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy.
The Patrick Administration's aggressive clean energy initiatives have made Massachusetts a leader in energy efficiency, renewable energy, and emissions reductions. The American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy (ACEEE) has named Massachusetts number one for two years running. This year, Governor Patrick set a new solar goal after reaching the previous goal of 250 megawatts four years early. The Commonwealth now aims to install 1,600 megawatts of solar capacity by 2020. The clean energy revolution is yielding economic benefits as well, with 11.8 percent job growth in the last year and 24 percent growth in the last two years; nearly 80,000 people are employed in the clean tech industry in Massachusetts.


Greenfire Farms 10 Blue Birchen Marans Day-Old Chicks:Ultra-Rare Imported Marans Variety that Lays Very Dark Brown Eggs!
The lucky winner of this auction will receive 10 or more unsexed blue birchen Marans day-old chicks. Marans are known for their remarkable dark brown eggs –reputed to taste better than any egg in the world—and this rare French breed is much sought-after in America. The rarest variety of Marans is the blue birchen, a bird with feathers as colorful and captivating as the eggs it lays. We scoured Europe to find blue birchen Marans, and after several years we were able to located two flocks of exemplary birds.
Greenfire Farms' blue birchen Marans are known to reliably produce some of the darkest chocolate-colored eggs in this country. Blue birchen Marans are extremely rare in the United States – very few people in this country have ever seen one. Greenfire Farms maintains the largest breeding flock of blue birchens in the United States, and our birds lay beautiful dark brown eggs typical of the breed. Here's a picture of eggs selected at random that we collected from our breeding pen one afternoon.
Of all the breeds we raise, the blue birchen Marans are among our favorites. They have great personalities, lay beautiful eggs, and are simply one of the most stunning chicken varieties in existence. The roosters have wildly dramatic colors, but the hens also have a beautiful mosaic of striking feathers.
Please keep in mind that if you win this auction you may receive blue, black, and/or splash birds as a result of the way the blue gene operates in chickens. But, the chicks you receive will be able to produce blue birchens in the next generation as well as the other colors associated with the blue gene. Chicks will be selected at random based on hatch availability and we cannot grant requests for specific colors.
The pictures on this auction represent the quality of the stock that Greenfire Farms is currently working with. The winning bidder will receive 10 or more unsexed blue birchen Marans day-old chicks. They will be vaccinated for Marek's. These chicks will be shipped within 3 weeks of the close of this auction. We guarantee live delivery and the health of the chicks for 72 hours after you receive them. The auction winner pays an additional $35 in shipping costs.

THE DEVIL'S TRAMPING GROUND
Link: https://vivaglammagazine.com/a-quick-ghost-guide-to-north-carolina/
The Devil's Tramping Ground is a mostly-baron spot of land in North Carolina that reminds me heavily of a druid circle. It's a circular area within the forest where no large trees will grow in. Found in Bear Creek, North Carolina, it's the perfect location to stop in if you're heading down from Virginia into North Carolina, as it's close to the top of the state.
This area has been the target of local legend and lore since the late 1800s. And, while we found some scarce vegetation growing there, it was true that no large trees were flourishing within this circle. Supposedly, this is the spot where the devil, himself can rise from the depths of hell to wreak havoc on the world. Glowing red eyes have been spotted there, and supposedly no animals will cross through that area, as they sense the evil.
While I was there, we felt a lot of movement (most likely from critters) circling around us in the tree-line. The IR lights on both of our cameras shut off and turned back on at the same time at random, and we got a few interesting responses on a spirit box. It's definitely a place to visit (and even camp at) if you're up for a spooky night. It's also a great way to indulge your paranormal itch while also getting reconnected with nature, as it is a very natural and elemental spot. All in all, it's worth a drive by if you're passing through the area.
The Devil's Tramping Ground is approximately 50 miles south of Greensboro, NC. From NC 421 South turn Right onto State Route 902 Follow For about 7 MilesTurn Left on Devil's Tromping Grounds Rd. The Road is markeked by a official DOT "green sign" that now points toward the site.Follow for 1.7 milesYou should see a gravel pull off on the left. The Devil's Tramping Ground is about 150 feet down the dirt path.
The Tale
Link: https://northcarolinaghosts.com/piedmont/devils-tramping-ground/
The Devil's Tramping Ground is a mysterious, perfectly round and absolutely barren circle about forty feet in diameter in the pine woods of Chatham County. Not a tree, not a flower, no lowly weed, not even a single blade of grass will grow in the limits of the circle. Seed sowed there refuses to sprout. Any vegetation transplanted there will wither and die.
And, what's even more strange, any object left in the circle before dusk will have been violently moved outside its bounds by dawn.
Dogs tuck their tails between their legs and whimper when brought near. The frightened animals will dig their heels into the sand, refusing to be brought into the circle.
Men have tried to spend the night in the circle, but not one has succeeded and remained sane. Something they see on their vigils drives them out of their wits, never to recover. For The Devil's Tramping Ground has earned it's name. It's said that there is where The Devil himself walks at night.

On January 26, the PATS program (located at McLane ES) took delivery on 20 new NXT Robotics kits for the new Pre-STEM Robotics program for the 5th grade class. These kits were acquired through the LEGO Smart Schools Matching Grant and the generous support of new STEM Pals that provided funds for 10 kits.
The PATS team now is targeting STEM initiatives at the younger grade levels. They hope to further leverage the LEGO Smart Schools Matching Grant to acquire the WeDo technology for students as early as 2nd grade.

a disease flare represents recurrence of inflammatory activity of the underlying vasculitis after a state of remission has been achieved with treatment.
Usually disease flares are milder than the original disease presentation because the patient may still be on some immunosuppressive therapy that muffles the intensity of the inflammation or because symptoms get recognized faster by the patients and their physicians, and a renewed course of remission induction therapy is implemented earlier.

Fisher Road Recycling Centre in Cobble Hill looks to double compost
The Fisher Road Recycling Centre wants to double the size of its operations.
Robert Barron
Owner Dave Laing has submitted applications to the Ministry of Environment and the Cowichan Valley Regional District that would see the facility double the amount of compostable materials it receives each year, from 18,000 to 36,000 tonnes.
Tauseef Waraic, the CVRD's manager of recycling and waste management, said a major concern of having more recycling materials come to the facility is the increased odour.
But he said the centre is proposing to compost all of the materials indoors for the first time, with the aim to dramatically reduce the smell from the facility.
"The project needs to receive a permit from the ministry after it discloses all the details of the plan to ministry staff, and only after that is successful would the CVRD consider it," Waraic said.
"In the meantime, the recycling centre is posting notices of its plan in the local newspapers and has placed a notice at the entrance of the facility."
The facility has been providing full-service organics recycling in the Cowichan Valley Since 2005.
It collects composting material from households, institutions and businesses, including restaurants and grocery stores.
Matteus Clement, the director for Cobble Hill on the CVRD, held a community meeting on Dec. 2 to discuss the expansion project at the recycling facility.
He said the approximately 40 people in attendance asked a lot of questions, particularly around increased odours, if the expansion plan gets the green light, and impacts on local aquifers.
"There was a lot of frustration expressed at the meeting," Clement said.
"[The facility] is proposing a massive increase in the amount of recyclables coming in there, and people had a lot of questions about it."
Clement said he plans to have another meeting in which CVRD staff and representatives from the recycling facility will be in attendance to deal with the issues and ask questions.
"I think we need to do more research to be properly prepared for the next meeting," he said.
"One positive aspect of the proposal that I can see is that all the composting would be done indoors, and that should go a long way to deal with odours from the facility."

Workshop: "Standing Out in the Digital Age: Building YOUR Professional Website"
It is rare to see a link to a professional website on the top of a resume or curriculum vitae. In a world that shares most information through the internet, why hasn't a professional website become the norm when applying to opportunities? Is it because it isn't seen as an effective way to share qualifications, or is it because most people aren't aware or don't take the time to develop their online presence? In this workshop, attendees will learn how to build a comprehensive website from scratch using FREE resources such as Weebly in order to stand out in an application pool and build connections through networking. Participants will also have the opportunity to provide feedback to Graduate Career Services on their NEW website layout and content structure in order to create a more user-friendly experience. Bringing a laptop is recommended but not required. Food will be provided.
The workshop will also be a great way for students to prepare for the 3MT Competition taking place during the winter/spring semester. Participants in the 3MT have 3 minutes to pitch their dissertation research to a general audience. Developing a robust website can aid in the development of your pitch and help you to explore WHY YOUR RESEARCH MATTERS.

Birdman and Slim Are Writing a Cash Money Biopic
Andy Kropa, Getty Images
Birdman and Slim, co-owners of Cash Money Records, were guest speakers at Brooklyn Law School today when they announced that the two are working on a script for a Cash Money biopic. XXL got the exclusive audio clip and you can hear it in full below.
"Can I tell you something my brother told me?" Baby asked the moderator. "He said everything we've ever did - and I got 20 plus years selling records - nothing we ever did is worth more than that script. I'm excited about the script. That's something I really want to do.
"[Look at the] Straight Outta Compton [movie]. I think that Dr. Dre and Ice Cube are geniuses for what they have done and accomplished," continued Baby. "For them to do that [movie] and to make it trend-setting, they opened doors for us, and I think that what we have is way more special because we're in modern times."
When asked if he was thinking of writing a book and then making it into a screenplay, Slim wasn't sure, but he said he's been working on a script. "This is gold. There's a lot of things that people don't know that we went through, things that happened behind the scenes of the company, things that happened before we were with Universal. So we got a lot of stories, but the way I'm putting it together is gonna be great."
It goes without saying a Cash Money movie would be incredible. Before even signing their distribution deal with Universal, CMR had its fair share of drama, plight and success. We can't wait to see what Baby and Slim have been cooking up.

B.C. city considers tighter reins on horse-drawn carriage tours
One councillor wants to keep better track of the horses, another suggests the tours don't belong in the city
Mar. 12, 2018 1:20 p.m.
One B.C. city is looking at new regulations for a popular component of its bustling tourist sector.
Victoria councillors are considering tightening city regulations governing horse-drawn carriage tours as part of proposed wholesale changes to its animal control bylaw.
The changes include ensuring individual horses display identification numbers and health records to allow for improved animal monitoring by city licensing officers and the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
Councillors will debate the bylaw amendments Thursday after a meeting last week was extended due to public interest.
Coun. Charlayne Thornton-Joe says the city wants to keep better track of the horses, while another council member has suggested the carriage tours no longer belong in the city.
Horse-drawn carriage tours of downtown Victoria's scenic Inner Harbour and bucolic Beacon Hill Park are popular tourism attractions, but they have often been dogged by animal rights proponents who oppose the tours.
Council is also considering renaming the current regulation to the animal responsibility bylaw, which will prohibit the sale of dogs, puppies, cats, kittens and rabbits at pet stores.

Maryland man celebrates after winning $1 million lottery for the second time in two years
Posted 7:31 pm, November 2, 2019, by CNNwire
For many, winning a big lottery jackpot is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but for Rolf Rhodes, lightning struck twice.
The Massachusetts State Lottery said Wednesday that he won $1 million in its "$4,000,000 Instant Jackpot" game.
To grab what would become the second golden ticket of his life, Rhodes walked into the Imperial Gas and Country Store in Mendon, a town about 40 miles southwest of Boston.
When he made his latest life-changing purchase, he managed to beat odds of 1 in 1.68 million, according to the lottery.
Rhodes won his first million in the state's "Hit $1,000" instant game back in May 2018. He opted to receive that prize in a one-time infusion of $650,000 into his bank account.
This time, he's chosen to receive his $1 million payout in 20 annual installments, valued at $50,000 apiece before taxes, the lottery says.
Rhodes' million is just a quarter of the total in the state's "$4,000,000 Instant Jackpot" game. There are three remaining $1 million jackpot prizes still up for grabs, the lottery says.
Rhodes purchased his first winning ticket in Milford, Massachusetts, a town just next to Mendon, CNN affiliate WHDH reported.

Tigers and lions often get lots of attention in different types of media. Another felid, much less commonly known, is the beautiful Persian Leopard (Panthera pardus saxicolor). Existing today only in fragmented populations in the mountain areas of Iran, Afghanistan, Georgia, Turkey and Southwest Asia, this subspecies is classified as endangered by the IUCN Red List. Only between 800 and 1200 individuals are believed to still be found in the wild and they are currently declining.
Weighing up to 75kg, the Persian leopard is one of the largest of the nine subspecies of leopards in the world. It is an agile predator, capable of hunting down prey such as Bezoar goats, roe deer, Goitered gazelles, mouflons and wild boar in rocky areas. It uses its long tail to balance and its large front paws and claws to grab prey. Their hind legs are longer than their front legs. This enables them to take long jumps between rocky outcrops. They are most active at night and see very well in the dark. The Persian leopard also has a thick fur to keep it warm during long and cold winter months.
Their fur is also one of the reasons to why they are illegally hunted. Also, as with many large wild cats, body parts from the leopard are still being used in traditional Asian medicine. This illegal business generates large sums of money and is a tempting way to earn money for local people. The leopards are also killed when seen as a threat to domestic livestock such as goats and sheep. However, the main reason for the leopard to attack livestock is usually because of depletion of their natural prey base due also to illegal hunting.
Economic crisis, social changes and military activities in the area have all contributed to insufficient protection of the leopards and their habitat. Other human activities are also threatening their existence. Deforestation, agricultural expansion, livestock breeding and infrastructure development are a few examples. Some researchers today say that the leopards' chances for survival outside protected areas appear very slim.
People need to become more aware of what is going on and which problems exist. This is the only way we can find a sustainable way of coexisting with large predators on our planet.
Find out more about this and other forgotten species on the website of Photographers for Conservation, who have also provided EOCA with many wonderful wildlife images on their website.

Crain's Cleveland Business recently teamed up with LunaTech 3D, a marketing company based in the metro Detroit area, to offer our readers spin tours of some of Northeast Ohio's most intriguing event venues.
So, without leaving the comfort of your home or office, join us on an immersive trip from Akron to Rootstown to Cleveland and experience a handful of the region's most exciting meeting spaces.
Opened summer of 2014 in the West Bank of the Flats in Cleveland, Music Box Supper Club has emerged as a popular destination for live music and riverfront dining. The two-story venue boasts a number of options for event planners. For example, the entire venue can be rented, or just the supper club, rooftop deck, window terrace bar or private dining room.
A cultural landmark in the Rubber City, the Akron Civic Theatre offers visitors a chance to experience a night under the stars even if Northeast Ohio is covered in clouds. The theater, which boasts a twinkling star-lit sky and clouds, was built in 1929 and underwent an extensive renovation in the early 2000s. It still hosts a number of popular entertainment acts, and is an Akron outpost for the Cleveland International Film Festival.
The eclectic venue, which opened its first location in Denver a few years back and is now is in 10 cities across the country, is billed as an "eatertainment" complex. As one of the anchors of the burgeoning Flats East Bank project in Cleveland, the venue has already seen a fair amount of traffic. It includes a restaurant, a bowling alley and an '80s style arcade. You can rent the full venue — it holds about 1,000 guests — the rooftop patio or the mezzanine.
The centerpiece of Northeast Ohio Medical University's massive expansion project, the NEW Center is more than a fancy hub for students. It's also a fine space for events, including weddings, corporate retreats and fundraising galas. Event spaces range from the open atrium with its backlit waterfall to the grand ballroom. The NEW Center also has a high-tech auditorium that can seat 350 people.
The museum's roughly 31,000-square-foot Ames Family Atrium, part of a recent $350 million expansion project, is one of the most stunning event spaces in Northeast Ohio and is a perfect space for larger affairs, as it can hold up to 2,000 guests. The museum also offers private dining spaces, a lecture hall and auditorium for rentals. When it comes to the art museum, it's important to act quickly. The museum said it is booking up to a year and a half in advance.

Essay on The Land of the Rising Sun: Japan
Length: 664 words (1.9 double-spaced pages)
The Land of the Rising Sun, Japan, is an island located in the Pacific Ring of Fire. Surrounded by water, this archipelago is nearly 71% mountainous. The climate of Japan is fairly consistent creating a long growing season. Because of these specific geographic features, Japan's culture has been impacted greatly. One of the largest sources of protein, for the Japanese, is fish. This source of protein is gained through the help of specific geographic features. As well as their diet, their source of relaxation and tranquility is made possible. Finally, a large growing season is promising as well.
Moving onto the first point, the Japanese's diet consists of a large portion of fish. Without the contiguous bodies of water such as the Pacific Ocean, Inland Sea, Sea of Japan, Korea Strait, East China Sean, and many others, fish would most likely not be a staple food of Japan. The specific term, Sashimi, is used to describe a stylized way in which some fish is prepared in Japan. Sashimi is basically raw fish. It is a delicacy in Japan and is traditionally considered to be one of the finest ...

Mishima himself was as conflicted as his many stories and plays, which tend to play out the problem of which direction is Japan heading, and should the nation be developing that way. Mishima romanticized the samurai and nurtured a lifelong affair with traditional Japanese theater. At the same time, he admired the West and studied Western art and literature avidly....

John Donne's The Sun Rising Essay
- John Donne's "The Sun Rising" In his poem, "The Sun Rising," Donne immerses the reader into his transmuted reality with an apostrophe to the "busy old fool, unruly sun" that "through curtains" calls upon him, seizing him from the bliss which "no season knows." This bliss, a passionate love, stimulates him to reinvent reality within the confines of his own mind, a wishful thinking from which he does not readily depart, much like a sleepy child clings to the consequences of a dream. In his address to the sun, he bids "the saucy, pedantic wretch" "go chide late schoolboys, and sour prentices," resembling a petulant youth imploring for more time to slumber....

In an essay entitled "John Donne," Achsah Guibbory supports this reading of the poem, stating, "The world of love contains everything of value; it is the only one worth exploring and possessing. Hence the microcosmic world of love becomes larger and more important than the macrocosm" (135).... [tags: Donne Sun Rising Essays]

Essay on To His Coy Mistress by Marvell and The Sun Rising by Donne
- To His Coy Mistress by Marvell and The Sun Rising by Donne In both of these poems, language is used to a very good effect. In "To His Coy Mistress" the language is used to try and win his lovers heart, so that they can make love before the time has passed where it is impossible to do so. In "The Sun Rising" the language is used to depreciate the Sun and to express the feelings the man has for his lover. Both poems seem to argue with something within the poem. In 'To His Coy Mistress' the man is arguing against time, saying there isn't enough, and therefore he and his lover should make love while they still can....

Laboratory trials were carried out to examine dose, pretreatment, and posttreatment mortality, followed by field trials to assess effectiveness as measured by the proportion of oysters successfully anesthetized.
We lack confidence that Judge (Aaron) Persky can fairly participate in this upcoming hearing in which a male nurse sexually assaulted an anesthetized female patient," Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen said in a statement.
The dye flowed rapidly when the mice were unconscious, either asleep or anesthetized.
Trimetazidine is a widely used anti-ischemic agent, but effects of its chronic treatment on myocardial preconditioning in anesthetized animals have not been investigated.

Researchers in a study funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have demonstrated for the first time that a direct artificial connection from the brain to muscles can restore voluntary movement in monkeys whose arms have been temporarily anesthetized.
Lingual soft tissue can be anesthetized using the Greater Palatine (GP) or the Nasal Palatine (NP) nerve block injections.
Anesthetized monkeys may be dead to the world, but their brains remain surprisingly lively.
However, the examination was very limited because of poor patient cooperation, so the patient was anesthetized for microotoscopy.
Designed to boost the immune system and aid in disease prevention for pets, the easy-to- follow program includes natural preventatives and healing modalities for common conditions, and guidelines for when to vaccinate and when not to (vaccination can cause pregnant animals may reject their unborn litters; anesthetized animals may vomit and choke).
This makes one wonder if medical students and/or residents have been learning how to do pelvic exams on anesthetized women without their permission or even their knowledge.
