City tours, excursions and tickets in Bilbao and surroundings
Spain - moving around the country
In every major city of Spain, there are bus stations which are the departure point for traveling to the most remote provinces and resorts. On average, the intervals of routes around the city are about 15 minutes, while intercity trips run every 40 minutes. Some bus trips take to the line even at night. On the other hand, the number of trips is significantly reduced on holidays and on weekends. You can pay for your fare directly in the bus, but it will be a little more economical to purchase a travel card for 10 trips. This card however must be punched. For tourists, there are special sightseeing buses in the cities that allow you to visit all the most famous and historically important places of the city in one day. If the long-distance journey by bus seems too long and uncomfortable, you can use air transport.

Dancing Under The Red Star
Karl Tobien
Tr. Paperback
The Extraordinary Story of Margaret Werner, the Only American Woman to Survive Stalin's Gulag
The shocking and inspirational saga of Margaret Werner and her miraculous survival in the Siberian death camps of Stalinist Russia.
Between 1930 and 1932, Henry Ford sent 450 of his Detroit employees plus their families to live in Gorky, Russia, to operate a new manufacturing facility. This is the true story of one of those families–Carl and Elisabeth Werner and their young daughter Margaret–and their terrifying life in Russia under brutal dictator Joseph Stalin.
Margaret was seventeen when her father was arrested on trumped-up charges of treason. Heartbroken and afraid, she and her mother were left to withstand the hardships of life under the oppressive Soviet state, an existence marked by poverty, starvation, and fear. Refusing to comply with the Socialist agenda, Margaret was ultimately sentenced to ten years of hard labor in Stalin's Gulag.
Filth, malnutrition, and despair accompanied merciless physical labor. Yet in the midst of inhumane conditions came glimpses of hope and love as Margaret came to realize her dependence upon "the grace, favor, and protection of an unseen God."
In all, it would be thirty long years before Margaret returned to kiss the ground of home. Of all the Americans who made this virtually unknown journey–ultimately spending years in Siberian death camps–Margaret Werner was the only woman who lived to tell about it.
Written by her son, Karl Tobien, Dancing Under the Red Star is Margaret's unforgettable true story: an inspiring chronicle of faith, defiance, and personal triumph
Pub date: 15 July 2009
Karl Tobien was born in 1956 just outside a Soviet slave labor camp in the northernmost region of Siberia. He lived in Russia with his mother, father, and grandmother until he was two-and-a-half years old, after which he lived in Hanover, West Germany, until nearly age six. Speaking fluent Russian and German at a young age–and not much English, he first arrived in America in 1961–with his mother and grandmother, and was raised in Cincinnati, Ohio. As a child, Karl had an avid interest in sports, music, and drama. He attended the nationally renowned high school, Walnut Hills, and graduated in 1974, after which he enlisted and served four years in the United States Navy, while pursuing a degree in Business Administration. Throughout the uncertainty of his twenties, in search of meaning and identity, Karl held a series of unconnected, random occupations, including: disc jockey, lifeguard, bartender, actor, model, while playing amateur hockey and baseball. While raising a family, his subsequent years were marked by several noteworthy stints in the corporate business community. Today Karl is a sales/management consultant in the private business sector, speaker, and author. He resides in Cincinnati with his wife, Tina, and his four children: Karla, Matthew, Kaleb, and Khloe.
Praise for Dancing Under The Red Star
"Very few stories rise to the level of stirring the deepest parts of my soul. But this is one. Some would call this a tragedy. That is not my sentiment. This amazing chronicle represents the power of the human soul and illustrates the unique potential in each of us. Margaret Werner's suffering has become a light encouraging us all that there are greater possibilities within each one of us.""

All Debts Paid
In prison, Jamie discovers that an old foe has become the warden - and now has the power to make his life a living hell. Over the years, Claire and Frank both put their best foot forward to share a harmonious marriage, but an uninvited guest shatters this illusion, bringing their differences to light.
Of Lost Things
While serving as groomsman at the aristocratic estate of Helwater, Jamie is reluctantly pulled into the intrigue of a noble British family. In 1968 Scotland, Claire, Brianna and Roger struggle to trace Jamie's whereabouts in history, leaving Claire to wonder if they will ever find him again.
As Brianna grapples with the life-changing revelations of the past summer, Claire must help her come to terms with the fact that she is truly her father's daughter - her 18th century Highlander father. To complicate matters further, Roger brings news that forces Claire and Brianna to face an impossible choice.
A. Malcolm
After decades apart, Jamie and Claire finally reunite and rekindle their emotional and physical bonds. But Jamie's new business dealings jeopardize the couples' hopes for a simple life together.
In the aftermath of a violent confrontation, Claire follows her conscience as a surgeon, even though it could put her and Jamie's lives at risk. At the same time, Jamie attempts to evade the reach of the Crown as its representative closes in on his illegal dealings.
First Wife
Claire returns to Lallybroch with Jamie, where she does not receive quite the reception she was expecting; the choices Jamie made during their time apart comes back to haunt them.
Claire and Jamie leave Scotland, sailing to the West Indies on an urgent quest. But when the superstitious crew looks for someone to blame after a string of bad luck, rescue comes from an unlikely source.

Claire races to discover the source of an epidemic aboard a disease-stricken ship before hundreds of sailors die. And as Jamie locks horns with Captain Raines, Fergus finds himself torn between loyalty and love.
After making a leap of faith, Claire washes up on a seemingly deserted island where survival is her only option. Navigating treacherous waters has crippled the Artemis, so Jamie devises a joyful moment for his crew in the midst of devastating setbacks.
The Bakra
The Artemis finally reaches Jamaica bringing Jamie and Claire that much closer to their goal. During a lavish ball on the island, the Frasers encounter old allies, as well as former adversaries who threaten to derail their mission.
Claire is forced to play a game of cat and mouse with an old adversary as she searches for Young Ian. The Frasers race through the jungles of Jamaica to prevent the unthinkable.

How N.Y.C. Is Forging Strategic Partnerships to Address Its Affordability Crisis
Third Avenue in Manhattan Shutterstock
By Dave Nyczepir,
The city is already expanding access to computer science education and mental health treatment.
Mayor Bill de Blasio's administration created the Office of Strategic Partnerships in 2014 on the heels of a campaign focused on alleviating New York City's affordability crisis.
OSP looks to collaborate with the city's civic-minded, charitable organizations to improve employment equity, among other problem areas, and found willing partners in The Robin Hood Foundation and venture capitalist Fred Wilson for one of its flagship projects, Computer Science for All.
About 54,000 New York City students, just under 5 percent, received a computer science education prior to the project's creation, but the goal of the $81 million public-private partnership is to extend training to all 1.1 million youth in the nation's largest school district.
"Private philanthropy and strategic partnerships allow us to try new models without risking public money," Gabrielle Fialkoff, OSP director, told Route Fifty in an interview.
Computer science students tended to be white or Asian and boys, leaving other people of color and girls at a disadvantage entering the modern workforce.
The business community approached OSP about piloting Computer Science for All in several schools, and since launching in 2015, 1,000 teachers have been trained to teach the subject across 550 schools. Students taking the AP Computer Science exam have tripled in number, and the skills will be woven into other subject in the future.
As with all OSP partnerships, Computer Science for All has the potential to scale in the city's budget, the current end goal being to train 5,000 teachers.
NYC Housing Help is another core OSP partnership focused on connecting low-income families facing eviction with legal services prior to their day in court.
"We found that we could keep people in their homes with proper representation," Fialkoff said.
The project was scaled in the city budget along with New York City first lady Chirlane McCray's $850 million mental health initiative ThriveNYC. Connections to Care—a partnership with the federal government and local nonprofits and mental health providers is a key component, delivering service to low-income, high-need communities.
Frontline nonprofits' staff are trained in proven techniques to spot signs of distress and refer patients to mental health providers.
Already 1,000 nonprofit counselors have been trained and served 9,000 New Yorkers, referring them to further care, with plans to scale that number to 40,000 patients.
Mental health treatment is also viewed by City Hall as critical to improving criminal justice reform and reducing the jail population at Rikers Island, so it can be closed even sooner that the city's 10-year timeline.
New York City also partnered with Unilever on an urban farming initiative to increase green space in neighborhoods.
"These are crime-fighting measures," Fialkoff said. "These are drivers of health and wellness."

Located on the Hudson River waterfront between Rockefeller and Teardrop Parks, River & Warren offers an impressive collection of two to five bedroom condominium residences and beautifully designed amenities, including a fitness center, playroom and rooftop park.
As Construction Managers on this modernization project, Mc Gowan spearheaded the renovation and conversion of what was once known as 22 River Terrace, transforming it into a striking luxury development. The project required a complete demolition of the building's interiors and common areas, including a redesign and repositioning of all mechanical and plumbing systems.
The well-appointed details include rooms with white oak flooring, kitchens with custom oak and stainless steel islands featuring countertops crafted from Bleu de Savoie, custom floor to ceiling millwork cabinetry with white Italian Calacatta marble countertops, and Sub-Zero and Bosch appliances.
Master bathrooms are finished with imported Bianco Puro marble walls and chevron patterned floors, custom crafted vanities from Italy topped with imported stone and master baths with freestanding tubs.


Given recent events, I thought I'd close this week out on a lighter note.
Well . . . I thought. It is the time of year for it, after all. Pretty soon I'll have to stop taking out the bins while barefoot . . .
Because so many other people were commenting on Carrie Fisher's passing, I wasn't going to, but then I noticed how many people were getting the details wrong.
The other day Carrie Fisher drowned in moonlight, strangled by her own bra.
My laptop appears to be in the process of dying. Hopefully this shall be a slow process until I can get a replacement here, but we shall see. In the meantime I've back up all my data and will continue to work on my current laptop as long as it lets me, but I'll also use this as further motivation to hit that chore list around the house.
Well . . . it's sunny and 79 degrees Fahrenheit outside my window right now, but I see people have strung lights in their palm trees.
Must be Christmas time again . . .
For the record, I don't want anyone out there to think that I was dismissing my son's fears the other day . . . because I wasn't.
Second of all, he was telling me this so I'd know how to fight it with him if it ever stepped out of line.
"Really?" I asked, feigning surprise. "Wasn't it just two hours earlier that you told me that, and I quote, 'I never want your help in doing something in this game ever again!"?
"I didn't mean literally!" was his response.
My thoughts regarding mirrors prior to becoming a parent: I'm watching you, mirror; just don't try anything and there's a chance we can both be happy when we part company.
Technical difficulties, please stand by until the tech arrives tomorrow.

This practice is perfect for a reset: mentally, physically, and spiritually. A blend between Yin and Restorative yoga practices utilizing the aerial hammock. Expect to decompress, stretch, breathe, and float. No Aerial Yoga Foundations required prior to attending this class.
There are no upcoming "Aerial Yinstorative Yoga" classes on this day.
The instructor was so helpful and accommodating to the many new students in the class. I left feeling completely blissed out. Although not much of a workout, my body felt very restored from earlier workouts in the week.
Perfect way to give aerial yoga a try!

SHIMLA- After Punjab, the Aam Aadmi Party is optimistic about its electoral prospects in the states of Himachal Pradesh.
Considering the recent CAG reports, jaundice outbreak, laborers exploitation in Kinnuar, unplanned and vision-less urbanization, and corruption charges against CM Virbhadra Singh, party is expecting people to vote for long awaited change. Both BJP and Congress have taken their turns to run the government, but could not give anything to Himachal except a debt of about 38,000 crore.
Other than Himachal, local units have already begun to prepare themselves for state elections in Goa, Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh,say party leaders.
As compared to other states, our party organizations in the states of Goa, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh are much stronger. These are very much being consideration, though a final decision will be taken at the right time.
He added that, of these names, only Goa does not have a full time Convener but that appointment will be done soon and, like the other state conveners, the person will also be a part of the NC.
Polls are due in Goa and Himachal Pradesh in 2017, while Karnataka and MP will likely see polls in 2018. Local units' ability to build strong party organisations will decide if AAP contests polls.
Expansion beyond Delhi and Punjab and contesting elections in other states was on the mind of several AAP leaders when the National Council (NC) of the party met to re-elect its national level bodies and office bearers. Convener and Supremo Arvind Kejriwal made his position on the issue clear in a 24 minute address. Conceding that many party members had approached him to discuss contesting elections in other states, including those in which they knew victory was not possible, Kejriwal underlined probability of victory as a key factor to contest polls.
said Kejriwal. Emphasising that contesting elections was a means to "changing the system", he implored party colleagues to do the "hard work" of door to door campaigning and preparing booth volunteers.
Yes. Party has set certain parameters to take those decisions, so I have taken the challenge and announced that we will meet those criteria. I have invited volunteers from across the country to come to Karnataka in 2018 and campaign.
There is a Delhi Model of governance and then Gujarat Model. We invite everyone to compare the two models. See our Mohalla Clinics, the works we are doing. A story was done during Lok Sabha elections: Gujarat Model. We also went to schools and hospitals in Gujarat, schools are in and shape, healthcare is in bad shape. Now everyone knows now what Gujarat Model is. People have been cheated in the name of Gujarat Model.

40th anniversary edition of Richard Adams' picaresque saga about a motley band of rabbits -
Watership Down is one of the most beloved novels of our time.
Sandleford Warren is in danger. Hazel's younger brother Fiver is convinced that a great evil is about to befall the land, but no one will listen. And why would they when it is Spring and the grass is fat and succulent? So together Hazel and Fiver and a few other brave rabbits secretly leave behind the safety and strictures of the warren and hop tentatively out into a vast and strange world.
Chased by their former friends, hunted by dogs and foxes, avoiding farms and other human threats, but making new friends, Hazel and his fellow rabbits dream of a new life in the emerald embrace of Watership Down . . .
'A gripping story of rebellion in a rabbit warren and the subsequent adventures of the rebels. Adams has a poetic eye and a gift for storytelling which will speak to readers of all ages for many years to come' Sunday Times

FDNY Foundation Brings in Record Funds to Support FDNY at Annual Dinner
Register: 7th Annual FDNY EMS 5K Run
FDNY 4th Annual Open House
The 23nd Annual FDNY Dinner brought in record funds to support the life-saving work of the FDNY. The dinner took place at the New York Hilton in Manhattan on Wed., May 16. Maurice DuBois of WCBS-TV served as emcee.
The dinner is held every year to honor individuals and businesses who have provided support to the Fire Department of New York.
"Though we see far fewer people losing their lives in fires today, we still see tragedies – terrible fires that claim young lives and destroy families – tragedies that we know can be avoided," said Fire Commissioner Daniel A. Nigro. "They are a stark reminder of how vital the FDNY Foundation and its many supporters are to protecting our city, educating New Yorkers, and preventing deaths. In the last year, we reached more than 750,000 New Yorkers at fire safety events supported by the Foundation."
"It's truly an honor to join you once again tonight and say thank you on behalf of the FDNY members in this room who proudly wear this uniform and on behalf of all the men and women on duty in our Firehouses and EMS Stations this evening, bravely protecting our great city," said FDNY Chief of Department James E. Leonard. "Each year, the Foundation is there to assist our uniformed members, providing funding for training initiatives and equipment, funding which results in lives saved, better fitness, and improved safety for the men and women who serve."
"Your support saves lives. Funds raised tonight enable the FDNY Foundation to provide scholarships, fire and life safety education programs, fitness training, equipment and more," said FDNY Foundation Board Chairman Stephen Ruzow. "Your kindness and generosity allow the Foundation to support the life-saving mission, initiatives and unending work of the members of the FDNY."
"The money we raise here tonight and year-round allows us to fund critical outreach programs," said FDNY Foundation Board Vice Chairman Robert Zito. "We know that one fire death is one too many. That is why we must never stop working on behalf of the FDNY, making sure that every person in our city is safe from fire. The programs you fund help to make this kind of outreach possible."
This year, the FDNY and FDNY Foundation honored an incredible supporter of the FDNY, Bayo Ogunlesi.
Ogunlesi is Chairman and Managing Partner and a Founding Partner of Global Infrastructure Partners, a leading private equity firm that invests in infrastructure assets.
Ogunlesi recently had the opportunity to visit Engine 22 Ladder 13 in Manhattan. While there, Mr. Ogunlesi met firefighters and toured the company.
"To say I was blown away is an understatement. I got to spend time with the most talented and dedicated people. They are dedicated to saving lives. I came away from that visit to the firehouse with a tremendous respect for the members of the Fire Department. The FDNY Foundation makes sure the members are trained and ready to save lives," said Ogunlesi, receiving the Humanitarian Award.
Additionally, the FDNY Service Recognition Award was presented to the members of FDNY's CPR Unit.
The CPR Unit – funded by the FDNY Foundation – has trained more than 110,000 New Yorkers in compressions-only CPR, giving them the power to step in and help in the case of an emergency. The CPR Unit was honored for their commitment to excellence in training and informing New Yorkers about the power of bystander and hands-only CPR.
This year's Chief William M. Feehan Fire Safety Education Award – which is awarded each year to a school for its dedication to fire safety and its participation with the FDNY Fire Safety Education Unit – was presented to P.S. 83 Donald Hertz in the Bronx for their work on incorporating fire safety education into their school's curriculum.
Over the course of four years, school leaders have looked to cultivate a relationship with the FDNY and to give students continued opportunities for exposure to fire and life safety education. Since 2014, hundreds of students have visited the FDNY Fire Zone at Rockefeller Center, New York City's state-of-the-art fire safety learning center. At the Fire Zone, students had the opportunity to climb on a realistic fire truck, try on bunker gear, meet firefighters and learn how to crawl through a smoke-filled hallway. Additionally, the students learned what to do in a fire emergency through hands-on exhibits and multimedia presentations, including a simulated fire scene.
"This is the incredible impact the FDNY Foundation makes in our city – teaching the most vulnerable among us, our children – and helping to keep them safe," said Chief Leonard, presenting the school with the award. "Through your support, know that each of you plays a role in our mission to protect these children from fire."
The event raised a record $3.3 million for the Foundation, which supports FDNY fire and life safety education efforts, as well as education, training and equipment for members of the FDNY.

Can someone suggest me " If I want to lock the GDG means it will not create new generation after reaching its maximum limit for example 255.
You mean to say no knew generation should not be created after reaching 255?
what should happen when attempting to crate a new generation ???
Yes Pandora no new generation should be created after reaching 255.
New generation will be created and the oldest generation will get uncatloged or deleted.
If I want to lock the GDG means it will not create new generation after reaching its maximum limit for example 255.
no new generation should be created after reaching 255.
how will You handle the fact that at a certain point in time the count will arrive to the LIMIT ???
How do You plan to change the jobs that create the generations ???
you mean to say that is not possible??
I thought we can put the check in JCL for verify to check the file name generation e.g if file name = a.b.c.g255.
what exactly do You want from us ???
I am sorry if you not getting my question but my question is that I know that after reaching to 255 GDG will create new generation but my requirement is that I want my job to fail or no new generation will create after reaching GDG to 255.
what happens when attempting to crate a new generation ???
my requirement is that I want my job to fail or no new generation will create after reaching GDG to 255.
To do this, have your site security group change the access to read only once you've got the right number of generations (be it 3 or 255).
There is no way using JCL to do what you want -- only the security software in use at your site can prevent access.
and anyway no automatic way of doing it !
seems a pretty silly requirement.
I totally agree with Enrico -- the "requirement" is inane and should be reviewed by someone competent before implementation. For example, where did the 255 come from? Is it merely because the most generations that can be cataloged in a GDG base is 255? If the GDG adds a new generation added once a month, then it will take over 20 years to reach the 255 (unless, of course, there are reruns without fixing the GDG).
I think you've developed your solution to whatever you think the problem is, and now want to change the system to fit your solution.
It will return zero if the GDG has fewer data sets than its limit, 8 if the DSN supplied as a parameter is not a GDG base, and 20 if the GDG contains the maximum number of data sets. Enclose the rest of the job in an IF-THEN-ELSE construct as appropriate.
Nice and interesting read for Friday Morning!
If you never want anything to be able to write a new generation you can either get the RACF profile changed to so one has acess to create a new one.

William Pepper: US Government Killed MLK Jr. + Truth Troubadour: An Act of State: The Execution of Martin Luther King
Image by farlane via Flickr
Joe Friendly on Jan 20, 2014
William Pepper details the responsibility of the US government for the assassination of Martin Luther King after more than 30 years' investigation. As he explains here, he won a jury verdict against the US government for that assassination in a civil suit he brought for Coretta Scott King, widow of MLK Jr. Although there were 2 snipers and their spotters in place, employed by the US, a 3rd shooter in bushes, a hired off-duty Memphis policeman, fired the fatal shot.
Introduced by Episcopal Priest Rev. Frank Morales.

Truth Troubadour: An Act of State: The Execution of Martin Luther King (2013)
TruthTroubadour on Jun 9, 2013
The song is based on the book of the same title by King family lawyer, William Pepper. The book tells the story of the trial that Pepper won on behalf of the King family in 1999 in a Memphis court where a jury of 6 black and 6 white jurors unanimously found Loyd Jowers and unnamed government conspirators guilty of murdering Martin Luther King. The King family had long determined that James Earl Ray was not the lone gunman in an act of hate, but rather that Ray was a patsy in a conspiracy to decapitate the unifying justice movement that Dr King represented. Loyd Jowers, a former Memphis cop, was the owner of the restaurant across the street from the Lorraine Motel where MLK was gunned down in broad daylight while in support of the struggle of the sanitation workers union for decent wages. Rather than an act of hate, the execution of Martin Luther King was an act of state. The soundtrack was recorded in Berkeley by Sammy Fielding of Robot Envy Studio. The beautiful viola work is by Eric Golub. Singer-songwriter Vic Sadot is on the vocals and acoustic guitar using a gentle finger picking style. Lyrics and guitar chords below.
An Act of State: The Execution of Martin Luther King
G C Em Am
William Pepper was a young man when he first met Dr. King D7 G
Who read his war reporting on Viet children suffering (1)
Martin asked young William Pepper to speak about the war
D7 G
To come to his congregation. And they were friends forevermore…
Then William went to law school to put his talents to the task
To fight for social justice! To answer questions we must ask!
It was April 4, 1968 when Martin Luther King
Was murdered in the broad day light… It was a devastating thing!
There was a mighty "Rush to Judgment" (2)…To blame it on James Earl Ray
There was agreement in the government to tell the media what to say
The media called it "a crime of hate"… A "lone-nut" simple thing…
Now we know it was "An Act of State" (3), the execution of Dr. King
James Earl Ray was just a patsy, an escaped prisoner for sure…
With a top security identity for the whole 9 months before…
Some rogues within the government shielded James as "Eric Galt"
Gave him a car and a driver's license to secure him 'til the assault…
To protect this petty criminal… To put the patsy into place
His handler sent him to Memphis where like a pawn he showed his face
Well, Martin marched for Civil Rights! And he stood against all war!
He spoke for truth and justice, and non-violence. That's for sure!
When Martin stood with the workers… in solidarity with the poor…
That high class oligarchy hated Martin all the more!
Earl Clark was one of the Memphis cops meeting at Loyd Jowers Grill
Across from the Lorraine Motel where Dr. King was killed
Two military snipers teams would have also fired
If the police team from Memphis failed to do what was required
Next day cops cleaned the crime scene… Hauled the brush and the proof away
They avoided all the witnesses that might have some truth to say
Too many unanswered questions still blowin' in the wind
In a murder investigation so deliberately ruined
Too many disturbing answers still came out in the trial
Enough to prove conspiracy to a nation in denial
Six white and six black jurors unanimously agreed
The facts presented at the trial proved who really did the deed
Yes, it all came out in the trial that in '99 they won!
When the government was convicted of the conspiracy they'd done
William Pepper was the lawyer who won the case in court
But when he went to the press conference no reporters came to report
So here's to William Pepper! The King Family, brave and wise!
For standing for the truth for us! For "overcoming" all the lies!
William Pepper, keep on struggling! You know you're following…
The teachings, and the vision, and the dream of Dr. King!
William Pepper wrote a book about the trial and everything…
An Act of State: The Execution of Martin Luther King (3)
Repeat the last line slowly to end.

I'd say William Pepper is quite an exceptional individual, a man of high principle and great determination.
To get some more background on this topic I listened to a long 2 hr talk he gave about his book back in 2003.
The case he makes is extremely compelling. The US he reveals is an incredibly scary place, a nightmare country run by gangsters and despots. That a man of King's exceptional moral stature should be executed in this utterly glib and gratuitous fashion is truly terrifying.
In fact, the conduct of the United States in most every respect is so blatantly despicable, we can only marvel that it has not yet completely imploded. The vulgarity and bigotry of those who could plan and implement such base acts should be forever condemned and they must never be allowed to be ignored or elided.
All the European powers and every empire that ever existed have more than enough to answer for, but the United States should in no wise be exempt, & be made thoroughly accountable for all of its criminal history ~ and in full measure.

The ministry's budget request, up by 2.5 per cent from this year's initial budget, totals 5.26 trillion yen ($47 billion) for the fiscal year starting from April 2018, reports Xinhua news agency.
The request was compiled by setting the dollar's exchange rate at 110 yen for fiscal 2018.
Part of the money would be used to introduce a new missile shield system but the amount was unspecified as it still needs to be hammered out with the US, said the ministry.
The ministry also requested 55.2 billion yen for the maintenance of facilities for Self-Defence Forces units stationed in Okinawa and 10 billion yen for developing technologies to create high-speed glide bombs for operations to "retake invaded remote islands".
The ministry is also eyeing allocating 11 billion yen for a research funding programme called National Security Technology Research Promotion, the same amount as fiscal 2017, but surging 37 times compared to the 300 million yen in fiscal 2015 when the programme was set up.
A state budget for fiscal 2018 will be compiled by the end of this year.

What LTPAC Providers Must Know About HIPAA – Part I: The Privacy Rule
The job of a long-term post-acute care (LTPAC) provider is primarily to protect the health of its residents. That job was never as important – or onerous – for providers as it was in 2020. While providers were, understandably, focused on protecting residents' physical health, it was equally as important to protect their health information.
Even while contending with COVID-19, LTPAC providers were required to comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Privacy, Security and Breach Notification Rules. With the hope that the worst of the pandemic is over, it makes sense to reexamine HIPAA rules, beginning with the Privacy Rule, and reinforce the importance of responsible policies and practices with every person working in your facility.
An essential aspect of compliance with HIPAA is awareness and understanding of the rules. Consequently, maintaining and communicating HIPAA compliance should be at the forefront of your facility's operations.
The HIPAA Privacy Rule
HIPAA is a federal law established in 1996 mainly to ensure the continuation of health insurance coverage for individuals and to improve efficiency in the healthcare industry. As technology advanced and the protection of an individual's personal information became more critical, the HIPAA Privacy Rule, published in 2000 and modified in 2002, was created to set standards for protecting the privacy of patients' personal health information.
The Privacy Rule covers healthcare providers, health plans and healthcare clearinghouses. Covered healthcare providers include any service provider that furnishes, bills or is paid for healthcare. The Privacy Rule also covers business associates of these entities, defined as a contractor of the covered entity that handles patient health information on its behalf.
The Privacy Rule applies to Protected Health Information (PHI). PHI is any information relating to the health status of a patient or resident such as clinical data, health conditions or billing and payment information. This information, along with personal identifiers such as name, address or social security number that could serve to identify an individual, is protected under the Privacy Rule.
The Privacy Rule gives residents rights over their health information, such as the right to examine and obtain a copy of their medical records and request corrections, if necessary. It also establishes the allowable uses and disclosures of such individually identifiable health information.
Allowable Uses and Disclosures of Resident Health Information
The disclosure of a resident's health information is required when requested by the resident, by his or her personal representative or when requested by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as needed for a compliance investigation or audit. There are also instances in which the use and disclosure of PHI by healthcare providers is allowable, even in the absence of resident authorization.
The Privacy Rule allows for such use by a provider for certain activities, including:
Treatment: activities related to the provision, coordination or management of healthcare, consultation between healthcare providers and referral of a resident from one healthcare provider to another
Payment: activities related to obtaining payment or reimbursement or determining coverage
Healthcare operations: administrative, financial, legal and operational activities of a provider that are necessary to run its business
Additionally, the Privacy Rule allows for disclosure of resident personal health information in certain circumstances, including:
Situations of public interest or benefit activity purposes such as when it is required by law or necessary for public health activities
Situations where the individual has the opportunity to agree or object to disclosure of PHI
Situations where the use or disclosure occurred incidental to another permitted use or disclosure
While this generally covers the main uses and disclosures, it's not an exhaustive list.
Uses and Disclosures of Resident Health Information That Are Not Allowed
Using unencrypted email or SMS text messaging
Talking in front of other residents and visitors and/or in open areas about a particular resident
Posting PHI on bulletin boards or leaving resident records in plain view allowing others without permissions to view
It's important to be aware of these rules at all times. Violations can be grounds for hefty fines.
The Role of a HIPAA Compliance Officer
LTPAC providers and other covered entities are required by HIPAA to designate a Compliance Officer to manage the organization's compliance with HIPAA rules and regulations. Often, a provider will name both a Privacy Officer and Security Officer, particularly in larger organizations, in order to divide the duties relating to HIPAA compliance.
Carefully selecting a HIPAA Compliance Officer may be the most important step you can take toward maintaining HIPAA compliance. Every employee must know and understand HIPAA rules and be constantly cognizant of adherence to those rules throughout daily work activities. Compliance Officers who are dedicated to their roles and responsibilities are better able to impart the significance of compliant behavior to personnel.
As it pertains to maintaining compliance with the HIPAA Privacy Rule, a Compliance Officer will develop a program of policies and procedures to protect the integrity of PHI and will ensure that the program is enforced. To this end, a Compliance Officer will continually assess risk within the facility by performing an annual risk analysis. The Compliance Officer also needs to have a thorough knowledge of the HIPAA Privacy Rule and to constantly monitor for new regulations or guidelines.
In addition to overall privacy compliance, HIPAA Compliance Officers manage the handling of tasks as required under the Privacy Rule, including:
Training staff to understand what PHI can and cannot be shared internally and externally
Responding to resident health information access requests
Providing residents with Notices of Privacy Practices (NPPs)
Obtaining permission from residents to use electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI) for purposes such as research and marketing
Updating forms to include recent changes in disclosure requirements
A critical aspect of a Compliance Officer's job of monitoring HIPAA compliance is to investigate incidents and report any breaches or violations of HIPAA rules. Whether reported by a Compliance Officer, a staff member, a resident or an inspector who has performed an annual survey, a suspected HIPAA violation will result in an audit by the HHS Office for Civil Rights (OCR).
In regards to the Privacy Rule, there are numerous ways in which HIPAA can be violated and trigger an audit. The risk associated with HIPAA violations may be mitigated by implementing and communicating certain best practices, including:
Providing up-to-date, detailed compliance training to all staff at least annually
Making sure that employees understand that any improper sharing or disclosure of PHI, even via word-of-mouth, is a violation of HIPAA
Ensuring that no resident documentation or records are ever unattended or available for public viewing
Always providing residents with personal health information within 30 days of a request
Notifying OCR of any violation or incident involving misuse of PHI within 60 days of the discovery of a breach
The importance of HIPAA compliance within an LTPAC facility cannot be understated. HIPAA violations can result in heavy fines, civil or criminal charges or even imprisonment. These consequences can be levied upon any employee within your organization who has been found in violation of HIPAA rules, whether willful or not.
The key to maintaining HIPAA compliance is making sure, to the best of a provider's ability, that every employee knows the rules and understands what constitutes a breach.

Q: Bootstrap, making  a dropdown trigger I have this structure using bootstrap dropdowns:

        <a href="<? echo base_url(); ?>">Home

          About Us

<a class="node" tabindex="-1" href="<? echo base_url(); ?>unique/">What makes us unique?

<a class="node" tabindex="-1" href="<? echo base_url(); ?>promise/">Our promise to you

<a class="node" tabindex="-1" href="<? echo base_url(); ?>mission/">Mission and Vision

<a class="node" tabindex="-1" href="<? echo base_url(); ?>customers/">What do our customers say?

<a class="node" tabindex="-1" href="<? echo base_url(); ?>history/">Our History

and this is css:
#navigation .basic {
   height: 100%;
   margin: 0 auto;
}

As I haven't managed to get td work as dropdown trigger (beccause of positioning), I created div and link inside.
Because of align in table my link is shorter that td height, how could I make td open dropdown instead of  or make a height 100%?
Setting link height to 100% doesn't work.

A: A little CSS should cure what ails you. No need to change the triggering element.
http://jsfiddle.net/isherwood/SAwmV/1/
div.dropdown-wrapper {

When I saw these delightful illustrations on Vogue Italia I went a little giddy - aren't they great? I love the way each one has a name and personality with outfits to match. When I was young whenever I read a book I would draw outfits to match the characters, in someway these illustrations remind of that. I think Fanny* is my favourite, who's yours, Clara, Sofia, Fanny or Lily?


Despite tough rhetoric by Republicans in recent months over their unwillingness to raise the country's $14.3 trillion debt ceiling without drastic budget cuts, it looks like a deal may finally be in the making.
Not only did President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner come together to discuss the matter over 18-holes and a couple of cold ones on Saturday, but House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Va.) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) outright signaled that hope may be on the horizon for averting a U.S. default: an event many have said would be "catastrophic" for the U.S. economy.
Right now it seems that any deal to raise the debt ceiling rests upon an equivalent amount in spending cuts, basically: cut spending by $2 to $4 trillion and raise the country's line of credit accordingly.
Meanwhile, even if a final deal cannot be reached by the August 2 deadline, Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said over the weekend that Congress would likely be able to find enough common ground to pass a measure to increase the debt ceiling for at least a few months. That way Congress could take the issue up again in the fall; or kick the can down the road yet again, as Aaron and Henry discuss above.

Quality Watchmaking is Our Mandate!
I have reviewed Szanto in the past and I really like their vintage inspired line of watches. Cars and watches are two things I really like, but I have never personally felt the desire for Motorsport watches. Why that is, I really have no idea. I am absolutely crazy about dive watches, though. I think one reason could just be the fact that I have never worn a motorsport watch. Maybe this review will help turn me in a different watch loving direction – one never knows!
I really like the vintage look on these dials. I especially like the cream dial on the Motorsport 3003, as well as how the red hands really pop out from those black sub dials. The 3101 is also very nice with that black dial. As on the cream dial, the red index ring and red hands really look good, just here they're set against the black. The hour number markers are the same on both (large and in charge) and the chrono pushers on both models have a touch of red that pairs perfectly with the dial. Both the Motorsport 3101 and 3003 have the same chronograph function but with different sub dial placements. Powering this chronograph is a Japanese Quartz 3 Eye Chronograph Movement. The dial is protected by a hardened mineral crystal.
The cases on the Szanto Motorsports are made from 316L stainless steel. There is a nice mix of brushed and polished finishes. All the Motorsports have a tachymeter bezel. I really like the look of that but I have never been able to figure out how they work – nor will I even try anymore. They just look good. The chronograph pushers are nicely polished and really look good with the red accent. The crown is screw down with the Szanto logo.
Water resistance is a decent 100 meters which is just fine for a land watch.
Szanto really did good with the straps here. Both straps are 22mm leather straps with multi-hole patterns & signature buckles. They are very soft and flexible and the stitching looks great. Hard for me to say which one I like more, the large holes on the 3101 or the smaller holes on the 3003. Both are really nice.
As I mentioned I am not really that into motorsport watches but I really do like the look of these Szanto Motorsports. The case finishes are very nice and those straps are excellent. For only $275 USD you get a pretty cool looking watch that looks fantastic on the wrist. I think I could wear one these, sometimes. If you want a nice vintage looking motorsport watch then you need to check these out at szantotime.com.
Would I wear it? I am more into divers but I would sometimes.
What I'd change: Would like a solid click on the pushers.
The best thing about it: Red accents on the pushers.
