Directions to Inn on Mill Creek
"For me, a landscape does not exist in its own right, since its appearance changes at every moment; but the surrounding atmosphere brings it to life – the light and the air which vary continually. For me, it is only the surrounding atmosphere which gives subjects their true value." ~ Claude Monet

Extreme Risk Protection Orders
Concerning creation of an extreme risk protection order, and, in connection therewith, making an appropriation.
Courts & Judicial
Firearms - extreme risk protection order - petition requirements - hearings - firearm surrender options - termination hearing - appropriation. The act creates the ability for a family or household member or a law enforcement officer to petition the court for a temporary extreme risk protection order (ERPO) beginning on January 1, 2020. The petitioner must establish by a preponderance of the evidence that a person poses a significant risk to self or others by having a firearm in his or her custody or control or by possessing, purchasing, or receiving a firearm. The petitioner must submit an affidavit signed under oath and penalty of perjury that sets forth facts to support the issuance of a temporary ERPO and a reasonable basis for believing they exist. The court must hold a temporary ERPO hearing in person or by telephone on the day the petition is filed or on the court day immediately following the day the petition is filed.
After issuance of a temporary ERPO, the court must schedule a second hearing no later than 14 days following the issuance to determine whether the issuance of a continuing ERPO is warranted. The court shall appoint counsel to represent the respondent at the hearing. If a family or household member or a law enforcement officer establishes by clear and convincing evidence that a person poses a significant risk to self or others by having a firearm in his or her custody or control or by possessing, purchasing, or receiving a firearm, the court may issue a continuing ERPO. The ERPO prohibits the respondent from possessing, controlling, purchasing, or receiving a firearm for 364 days.
Upon issuance of the ERPO, the respondent shall surrender all of his or her firearms and his or her concealed carry permit if the respondent has one. The respondent may surrender his or her firearms either to a law enforcement agency or a federally licensed firearms dealer, or, if the firearm is an antique or relic or curio, the firearm may be surrendered to a family member who is eligible to possess a firearm and who does not reside with the respondent. If a person other than the respondent is determined to be the lawful owner of any firearms surrendered to law enforcement, the firearm must be returned to him or her.
The respondent can motion the court once during the 364-day ERPO for a hearing to terminate the ERPO. The respondent has the burden of proof at a termination hearing. The court shall terminate the ERPO if the respondent establishes by clear and convincing evidence that he or she no longer poses a significant risk of causing personal injury to self or others by having in his or her custody or control a firearm or by purchasing, possessing, or receiving a firearm. The court may continue the hearing if the court cannot issue an order for termination at that time but believes there is a strong possibility the court could issue a termination order prior to the expiration of the ERPO.
The petitioner requesting the original ERPO may request an extension of the ERPO before it expires. The petitioner must show by clear and convincing evidence that the respondent continues to pose a significant risk of causing personal injury to self or others by having a firearm in his or her custody or control or by purchasing, possessing, or receiving a firearm. If the ERPO expires or is terminated, all of the respondent's firearms must be returned within 3 days of the respondent requesting return.
The act requires the state court administrator to develop and prepare standard petitions and ERPO forms. Additionally, the state court administrator at the judicial department's "State Measurement for Accountable, Responsive, and Transparent (SMART) Government Act" hearing shall provide statistics related to petitions for ERPOs.
The act appropriates $119,392 from the general fund to the judicial department for court costs, jury costs, and court-appointed counsel costs.

Case Notes
Ton Liefaard
Professor of Children's Rights
Open Letter on Climate Change
October 20, 2021 •	1	min read
For the first time, the Committee on the Rights of the Child has published a separate clarification specifically for children, in addition to its formal decision under OP3 in the recent climate change case
Following its recent decision in the Sacchi et al v. Argentina case and four similar cases, the Committee on the Rights of the Child published an open letter to the 16 children who had submitted the communications, i.e. the authors. In this letter, the Committee provides a 'simplified explanation of the case' with the 'hope' that the children will be 'empowered by the positive aspects of this decision'. It also 'encourage[s]' the children 'to use the simplified explanation of the case, to share [their] message with other children and young people'. The Committee explains in accessible language the procedural 'hurdles', which the children did not overcome, i.e. the children did not exhaust domestic remedies, which made the Committee decide that the cases were inadmissible. In addition, it gave several reasons why this case has been 'successful'. The Committee explains, among others, that it was particularly impressed by 'the courage and determination of the authors' which 'ensured that [the] issue was brought to the attention of the only international complaints procedure dedicated to children's rights'.
The open letter, in what the CRC Committee itself calls an 'historic case', fits in a movement around the concept of 'child-friendly justice', which aims to make justice proceedings more child-centred. At the domestic level, courts have started to experiment with child-friendly judgments in different legal proceedings, including in proceedings of family law, juvenile justice and constitutional law. Some courts incorporate one or more separate sections in the formal judgment providing clarifications in less formal language. Other courts have experimented with separate letters attached to the judgment and/or sent to the child together with the formal decision. The CRC Committee has published this child-specific clarification as an open letter on its website, apparently in an attempt to reach out to the authors of the case as well as to other children, and to make sure that children understand the significance of the Committee's findings that the rights of children are affected by climate change and that states bear responsibility for that, beyond their jurisdictions.

The govt reveals yet more plans to weaken planning rules
1st February 2013 | News | Claire
I wonder how they will distinguish between genuine comments from members of the public and developer submissions – especially when at least one of those in charge of this project… is a developer!
Here is the story in Planning – http://www.planningresource.co.uk/bulletin/planningdaily/article/1169299/government-launches-planning-red-tape-challenge/ …and the full story below:……………………….
Businesses and members of the public are being asked by the government to nominate planning regulations to be changed or removed in the latest stage of a deregulation drive.
The latest stage of the government's Red Tape Challenge, this time relating to planning administration regulations, was announced yesterday by planning minister Nick Boles, who promised that the move would not affect countryside or environmental protections.
In a statement, the DCLG said it wants to make "the mechanics of the planning system more efficient and accessible" but said the review would not make any changes to planning policy.
Regulations the department is looking at altering include those associated with planning procedures, major infrastructure and local plan making.
Planners and members of the public have been asked to contact the government over the next five weeks with their views on whether such planning regulations should be changed or dropped.
The DCLG statement promised that respondents will be able to "highlight areas where the system can be made simpler, clearer and easier for people to use and also let us know where regulation is essential".
It has chosen consultant Roger Hepher, Savills' head of planning, and Mike Kiely, the London Borough of Croydon's head of planning, as its two 'sector champions' for the initiative.
Sector champions are high-profile industry figures who the government appoints to help it carry out the red tape simplification task.
Kiely said: "When I first went into planning, the 'Encyclopaedia of Planning Law' went to four volumes; it is now 10. This is an opportunity to thin it down.
"The Red Tape Challenge wants to get rid of what's no longer needed, to consolidate the bits that have frankly got out of hand and to amend the stuff that could just work a bit better."
Hepher added: "Although we've lost a certain amount of red tape since 2010, there's still plenty around.
"This government is giving all those interested in the planning system an unprecedented opportunity to clear the decks of unnecessary rules and regulations that remain, and to address the bits previous initiatives have missed."
The DCLG also announced yesterday the results of another aspect of the Red Tape Challenge to simplify housing and construction regulations, which was launched last February.
It said about 100 such regulations will now be cut or altered in an effort to streamline the process of building homes and renting out properties.
Boles said: "We're streamlining the building system and removing and improving regulations to lift unnecessary burdens where we can, to create a smooth journey through the construction process.
"The planning administration theme will build on this and simplify the mechanics of the planning system more."
Under the Red Tape Challenge, the government publishes online in stages regulations related to a particular sector, asks people to tell it which should be ditched or simplified, and promises to act on the feedback.
More information on the planning administration red tape challenge can be found here.

Violent Wind Storm Leaves Path Of Destruction In California
PASADENA, Calif. — Several overturned semis on a Utah highway. Hundreds of thousands without power in California. A wind gust reaching 123-mph in Colorado.
The powerful winds that tore across Western states Thursday created a path destruction that closed schools, left neighborhoods with a snarl of downed trees and power lines, and prompted some communities to declare emergencies.
The storms, described as a once-in-a-decade event, were the result of a dramatic difference in pressure between a strong, high-pressure system and a cold, low-pressure system, meteorologists said. This funnels strong winds down mountain canyons and slopes.
The system brought high wind warnings and advisories for California, Utah, Nevada, Wyoming, Arizona and New Mexico. The blustery weather is expected to eventually hit Oklahoma, Missouri and Indiana.
The violent winds eased but strong gusts still blew through the region Thursday night, at times reaching 60 mph in some California mountains. Forecasters said the winds would continue to diminish through Friday.
The winds were fanning fires in northern California.
The Sacramento Bee reported that as of Thursday evening, seven fires had burned more than 130 acres in El Dorado County. Five fires had also burned more than 250 acres in Tuolumne and Calaveras counties.
In Southern California, the storm knocked out electricity to more than 350,000 utility customers. By early Friday, 270,000 of them were still without power.
Gusts, which reached 80 mph, were blamed for toppling semitrailers and causing trees to fall on homes, apartment complexes and cars.
A state of emergency was declared in Los Angeles County, where schools in a dozen communities were closed.
In some neighborhoods, concrete light poles cracked in half. Darkened traffic signals and fallen palm tree fronds and branches snarled traffic. At a Shell station, the roof collapsed into a heap of twisted metal.
In heavily damaged Pasadena, schools and libraries closed and a local emergency, the first since 2004, was declared. Officials said 40 people were evacuated from an apartment building after a tree smashed part of the roof.
Pasadena is known for its historic homes and wide oak-lined streets that are frequently depicted in films.
Many residents Thursday blamed the city for protecting its old trees from over-trimming to such an extent that they have now become a public safety hazard.
Vince Mehrabian, the general manager at A&B Motor Cars, estimated eight Lexus, Cadillac and other luxury cars had been destroyed by fallen limbs. He said he'd been asking the city for four years to trim the trees more.
On a street around the corner, almost every tree was either cracked in half or missing limbs.
Elsewhere, Daphne Bell, a 30-year Pasadena resident, said she was kept awake by howling wind. "This is the worst, the absolute worst. There were times it sounded like a freight train was roaring down my driveway," she said.
Similar stories of downed trees and power lines echoed across the West, where winds in some areas ripped storefront awnings, filled gutters with debris and forced school closures.
In Utah, about 50,000 customers lost power along the state's 120-mile Wasatch Front as high winds took down power lines, but service was restored to more than half of them by Thursday night.
On Interstate 15, strong gusts blew more than 10 semi-trucks onto their sides, prompting authorities to temporarily close the highway to trucks. Commuter train travel was also interrupted after debris covered the tracks.
Schools closed in Centerville, where a 102-mph gust was reported. Mail delivery and trash pickup were canceled.
Davis County issued a disaster declaration to request state assistance, citing more than $3.5 million in estimated damage to infrastructure.
The Red Cross opened three centers to provide food and aid to people affected by the storm, and opened one overnight shelter in Ogden.
In Nevada, weather officials warned that blowing dust was creating visibility problems on a highway between Reno and Las Vegas.
In Steamboat Springs, Colo., the roof of a four-story condominium complex was blown off and about 100 trees were knocked over, some landing on homes. A ski area shut down its lifts after a gust of 123 mph.
Even some weather experts were surprised by the wind's force.
"It's one of the strongest events that I can remember," said Brian Edwards, a meteorologist with Accuweather. "It's rather rare."

And check out what I have already put up here, where I get to show off what it means to take responsibility for your children's education.
We've educated through the primary years out of the classroom because we think the government's boring, narrow curriculum, unimaginative, force-fed delivery, and repetitive drilling and testing regime takes the fun out of everything. It makes children passive recipients of someone else's knowledge.
In the real world my kids learn in society; they learn alongside professionals, using real tools, real skills, real knowledge.
We get to be together as a family, too! Yah for us! We can travel, see places together, do things because we damn well all enjoy being together, even though sometimes killing each other seems like a really fine idea.
Then there's the play. Real, serious, hour after hour intense play. The home of creativity; the place where artists, poets, thinkers, scholars, inquiring, active minds are nurtured.
So you could say this blog exists so the beauty of an education without a conventional 9-4 schooling system can shine!
But there's another motive informing this daily record of success. Because I want to shove two fingers up at ignorance.
Here is a comment on a list in 2009: 'home educators do not have the monopoly on good parenting'.
You could hear the phrase 'smug bastards' rising in that person's throat.
We have a right to be smug.
Want a small class size?
Does home education make us happy?
Maybe home educators are just bolshy?
When we reach the end of the road we discover the beginning of the field. Parent, educator, thinker, doer, prevaricator, writer, maker, messer-upper, consensus-seeker, polemic, conflict-avoider, conflict-seeker, vegetarian, leather fondler, shouty person, 'don't-pick-fights-with-me, mister', book dipper, theatre-goer, watcher of films, and person who has unruly thoughts, generally. Prefer the imaginative world where everything is under my control.

Ich bin ein Broadbander
The WSJ on Saturday covered efforts by Deutsche Telekom (DT) to seek deregulation of policies similar to UNE-P regulations here in the US.
Europe's largest telecommunications company is investing €3 billion ($3.6 billion) to connect residential customers to the Internet at speeds up to 50 megabits per second — more than eight times as fast as its quickest offering so far and faster than any other connection available in German homes. The move is crucial for Deutsche Telekom's ambitions of offering a "triple play" of services spanning telephone, Internet and television at a time when its traditional business of phone calls is being shaken by major technological upheavals.
It looks like they managed to get a copy of Verizon's (VZ) and AT&T's (T ) playbook…
The German incumbent is lobbying to be spared such interference, arguing that it is creating a new service and already faces mounting competition from cable, Internet and other telecom companies. It has threatened to scrap the spending plan and lay off more workers if regulators impose too many restrictions.
The German government supports the removal of UNE-P like rules and has increasingly distanced itself from regulating the telco sector. Why? Concern over a broadband gap! According to the OECD, France, Great Britain, and Germany all lag Japan, Korea, and the USA in broadband penetration, particularly in next gen technology deployments.
Another quote from the WSJ article:
The government argues that there are three steps in fostering competition: privatization, regulation and deregulation. "The third step is the one that needs the most courage," says Joachim Wuermeling, Germany's secretary of state for the economy. That stance, however, puts Berlin on a collision course with European Union regulators in Brussels who are responsible for setting the terms of industry competition across the Continent.
As it turns out Telefonica and France Telecom want the same deregulation, and the EU is concerned that allowing Germany to deregulate would be a precedent for the entire continent. All of these carriers are making deployment of next gen broadband networks contingent on a release of obligations to lease the new infrastructure to competitive carriers.
I do not understand the mechanics behind the EU and how it represents the interests of corporations and individuals in member states, but it seems ridiculous that a sovereign country no longer has control of how a company can operate within its own borders. Who are the EU regulators looking out for? Themselves?
Companies only invest risk capital when the potential returns warrant it, regardless of the wishes and magical wand waving of pundits and politicos in Brussels or Washington DC. Telcos will simply refuse to make new investments in technology if the upside rate of return is regulated by a government entity and the downside risk is left unlimited.
I am frustrated the hypocrisy of those who lament broadband availability and technology, but at the same time refuse to allow those who make the risk capital investment to reap the benefits- instead they advocate confiscatory policies like Net Neutrality, and UNE-P.
The good news is that these debates are taking place, as we may be lucky enough to see the same destructive UNE-P legislation that was removed in the USA eradicated from three of the largest states within Continental Europe.
Thanks to Om Malik for some good data (.pdf link, in German) on German broadband policy.

To connect the Mac to the Companyweb site, one would think that the simple DNS header of Companyweb in Safari's Address Bar would do it.
Safari will not like the locally signed certificate, and pop up a warning every time one navigates to the site.
Change both options to "Always Trust".
This will eliminate the certificate warning in Safari, and enable the Mac user to browse and work with the Companyweb.
Also, the first time the user logs into the site they may need to authenticate against the SBS server. Save the username and password to the Keychain to avoid further password requests until the next password change.
Keep in mind that some features of WSS will not be available to the Safari browser such as "Explorer View".
It looks as if the Companyweb site, or others in WSS 2.x and the newer WSS 3.x will work very well for a heterogeneous environment with low data volume requirements.
Note that WSS 3.x would be the better choice for setting up the shared environment as there are more data redundancy and recovery features built into it like the Recycle Bin. Recovering data for a user from WSS 2.x can be really grief stricken and time consuming.
WSS 3.x also has the ability to work a two way relationship with Outlook 2007. That is, changes to the WSS 3.x site can be made in either WSS or Outlook and both will reflect the new changes.
WSS 2.x and Outlook 2003 is only a one way relationship. That is, one could only make changes on the WSS 2.x site with those changes reflected in the Outlook window.
This would save the need to work with the SMB/CIFS File System Authentication setup (shared folder network access) on every Mac. This point will be clarified further as we delve deeper into integrating our iMac into our SBS based infrastructure.

UPDATE: 2007-07-06: I missed that one needs to also check the "Always trust these certificates" under the lock image.
However, once that has been done, one no longer gets the certificate not being trusted error, one gets a "Certificate hostname mismatch" error. This one will require more investigation.
The error only comes up the first time the user logs into the Mac. Once they accept the certificate mismatch, they won't be nagged about it again until after they have logged out.


I titled this post "my opinion" because I don't technically think it is a review. I am not going to tell you if the book is good or bad or whether or not you should read it, this is just what I thought after I finished the book. My opinion is probably totally different from everyone else's, but I don't really care about that.
I am putting my thoughts after the jump because obviously, they are going to be filled with SPOILERS!!!!! Continue at your own risk if you haven't read the book!!
How could I have not heard about this movie sooner?
It looks super cute! Check this clip out. I dearly hope it's in the movie in some capacity although I have a feeling it won't be. I don't care though. I can't stop watching it and now the song's in my head forever!
I totally watched it like 10 times before I realized that the card was in the shower with her. I laughed hysterically for a couple of minutes at that.
Here's the actual trailer. I'm so going to see it in the theaters!
"Judy Blume should have prepared me for that." AWESOME!
Deathly Hallows Photos! Let's discuss them!!
Hola buddies! I'm listening to some Ministry of Magic right now and that's put me in a mood to discuss the new stills from Deathly Hallows!!
OK! So obviously this is at the Lovegood's house. It looks like this picture was taken after the death eaters have shown up, but I wish there was more destruction. The room just looks dirty to me.
We've totally already seen this picture from one of the trailers, although in the trailer Hermione didn't have blood on her hands. This can only be from right after they escaped from the Ministry and Ron got splinched. I have to say that I know everyone loved Hermione's jacket, but… I'm not feeling it.
Is it just me or does Harry not look to into kissing Ginny? Bonnie looks way more into it than Dan does. Maybe that's just the angle of this shot? We see more of Bonnie's face than Dan's? I'm totally a fan of Ginny/Harry in the books, but I can't lie – I'm a total Harmony shipper for the movies. Can anyone deny that they want Dan and Emma to make out? I mean seriously, in the movies you can practically feel the chemistry between those two radiating off the screen! But back to the photo…so…who's getting married? Is Bill going to be added into the movie? And are they at a newly rebuilt Burrow? Because as I recall, WB made the bold move of burning down their house in HBP.
OK, so this is obviously a shot of Harmony holding onto The Life and Lies of Dumbledore by Rita Skeeter. So they have already been to Godric's Hollow. This photo looks super posed. They probably could have chosen a better still for this. Also, Harry! Hermione! Where are your hats/ear muffs?? And Harry, just because you don't have a wand anymore doesn't mean you shouldn't be wearing gloves!
I'm going to say it. Harry's pants look…..funny. I wish they had buttoned the shirt all the way on the bottom, but whatever. I'm guessing this is a shot from when they went to the Ministry, because otherwise I have no clue. They don't look rough from being in the woods or fighting, etc. Maybe this is the alley that they're waiting in?
Death eaters at a long table? Opening scene from the book where Voldemort AK's Charity Burbage. I like how all of them have their hands on the table except for Draco. Tom Felton is so handsome!
Harry doesn't look squashed into that side car enough to me. Why aren't they flying yet????
Um…what? If Hedwig lives through the 7th movie, or they show her flying off like she is now and don't show her getting AK'ed….I don't know what I'll do. Hedwig needs to die, WB! Don't make me more pissed off than I already am!
I…don't love this photo. My main concern is that the drawings on the house look childlike and chalky. In the book, Harry looks at a painting that Luna did and he thought he was looking in a mirror for a second. Luna's better than this. Also, I don't love the look of Xenophilius. His face doesn't look old enough for me. Whenever I picture Xenophilius, he's old and broken down looking to me.
So what do you guys think of these pictures? Who's super stoked for the movie!? What do you guys think about the break point being when Voldemort gets the Elder Wand? I think it's a pretty good break point – I really hope they do justice in part 2 with Snape's memories!


So we were on our way up to Genting Highlands for a one day getaway (from the crazy heat in KL) and boy we were looking forward to some great food along the way! We've heard a lot about this restaurant called 126 Restaurant at Bukit Tinggi and decided to go give it a try.
For those of you who are like my grandma who loves buying fresh fruits and vegetables (so do I, omg I think I got it from her) will be happy to swing by this place. More on this later. Let's check out the food I had!
First up we had a ginger bee hoon dish with fish slices. The ginger is finely crushed/diced and cooked with the bee hoon. The fish slide were fresh and the taste of ginger blended well to make this dish quite flavorsome. For those who love ginger, I think you'll enjoy this.
Next up is the garlic fried French beans. I love this dish. It's really hard to get this wrong unless you put too much oil in it. A simple dish this one and the beans were fresh. The fried garlic bits were yums!
This is a favourite dish of my family's to order whenever we go up Genting Highlands. It's fried brinjal with dried shrimps, chilli, garlic. No every restaurant does it well cos some, like this 126 Restaurant did it, might be a little too oily. I liked the taste but found it too oily.
Oooo this next dish is the Soy Sauce Steamed Patin Fish. The key to this dish is the yummylicious (read: fresh) patin fish. The fish meat is chewy and firm. The sauce is excellent (I caught myself sipping the sauce). If you come by here, this is a must order.
This dish is called the Fermented Bean Paste Fried Chicken. I was chosing between Steamed White Chicken or this but sine I just got back from a crazy one day eating tour of Ipoh, which included a lot of white chicken, I decided to go for this fried version. It's a disappointing dish. The chicken was overcooked and hard. I didn't taste or find anything special about this dish.

On Wednesday, July 11, 2012, the California Valley Miwok Tribe met with Mr. Christopher Lloyd, BLM Archaeologist, Mr. Richard Estabrook, Petroleum Engineer, Mr. Gary Sharp, the Ukiah Field Office Associate Field Manager and Ms. Charlotte Hunter, PhD, BLM CA State Office/Deputy Preservation Officer; representatives from the United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Ukiah Field Office (Ukiah, California) and the BLM State Office (Sacramento, California). The meeting was held at the CVMT Tribal Offices located at 10601 N. Escondido PL, Stockton, CA.
CVMT received an invitation from both the BLM Ukiah Field Office and the BLM State Office to consult about the drilling method known as "hydraulic fracturing" (fracking) and about the new proposed regulations on this procedure. The meeting was set to exchange information between BLM and the California Valley Miwok Tribe. The Bureau of Land Management addressed what hydraulic fracturing is, why it is being done, what the problems are, how they are being addressed, and also discussed the proposed ongoing development of regulations governing hydraulic fracturing procedures.
The BLM oversees approximately 700 million subsurface acres of Federal mineral estate and 56 million subsurface acres of Indian mineral estate across the United States and is proposing a rule to regulate hydraulic fracturing on public land and Indian land. The new hydraulic fracturing method will modernize management of well stimulation activities and implementation of the proposed regulations will ensure that fracturing operations conducted on the public mineral estate (including split estate where the Federal Government owns the subsurface mineral estate) will now have certain guidelines to follow in using the fracturing method to drill in the most responsible way possible.
Among other things, the BLM is considering requiring oil and gas operators to 1.) Publicly disclose all chemicals used during the stimulation of a well by fracturing 2.) Submit information to the BLM to confirm wellbore integrity before, during, and 3.) Track and account for the fluids from the well after hydraulic fracturing operations.
Summary: BLM proposes 1.) The public disclosure of chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing operations on Federal lands; 2.) Confirmation that wells used in fracturing operations meet appropriate construction standards; and 3.) A requirement that operators put in place appropriate plans for managing flowback waters from fracturing operations. BLM proposes to apply the same rules and standards to Indian lands so that these lands and communities receive the same level of protection provided for public lands.
Some states have started requiring similar disclosures and oversight for oil and gas drilling operations under their own jurisdiction. This proposal seeks to create a consistent oversight and disclosure model that will work in concert with other regulators' requirements while protecting Federal and tribal interests and resources. The BLM proposes these changes to existing well stimulation oversight partly in response to recommendations put forward by the Secretary of Energy's Advisory Board in 2011. Also, current BLM regulations governing hydraulic fracturing operations on public lands are more than 30 years old and thus do not adequately address modern hydraulic fracturing methods.
The California Valley Miwok Tribe, being a Custom and Tradition Miwok tribe is very protective of the natural resources in California, especially drinking water. CVMT opposes the "fracking" process, but understands that the practice will continue, therefore, CVMT is in support of the efforts of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to put more accountability on companies whom use the hydraulic fracturing method to further stimulate production from oil and gas wells.
The Tribe would like to thank Mr. Christopher Lloyd, BLM Archaeologist, Mr. Richard Estabrook, Petroleum Engineer, Mr. Gary Sharp, the Ukiah Field Office Associate Field Manager, Ms. Charlotte Hunter, PhD, BLM CA State Office/Deputy Preservation Officer from the BLM State Office (Sacramento, California) – and a special thank you to BLM Representatives, Mr. Rich Burns, Field Office Manager(Ukiah Office), Mr. Jim Schrivner, Deputy State Director Division of Energy and Minerals; Mr. Bill Haigh, Mother Lode Field Office and Mr. Jim Stockbridge, Trust Liaison Officer, Denver Federal Center, Denver Colorado.


How high are anesthesiologist malpractice rates? Do anesthesiologists have the highest malpractice insurance rates?
Anesthesia mishaps can lead to critical events such as death or coma, but in recent decades improvements in operating room technology and education have led to fewer such events.
Prior to 1985, anesthesia malpractice claims for death or brain death were most often due to lack of oxygen the patient's heart or brain. Two significant breakthroughs arrived in the 1980's to help anesthesiologists care for you: 1) the pulse oximeter, and 2) the end-tidal carbon dioxide monitor.
The pulse oximeter, developed by Nellcor and Stanford anesthesiologist William New, M.D., is a device that clips to a patient's fingertip. A light-emitting diode shines a red light through the finger, and a sensor on the opposite side of the finger measures the degree of redness in the pulsatile blood flow within the finger. The more red the color of the blood, the more oxygen is present. A computer in the pulse oximeter calculates a score, called the oxygen saturation, which is a number from 0-100%. An oxygen saturation equal to or greater that 90% correlates with a safe amount of oxygen in the arterial blood. A score of 89% or lower correlates with a dangerously low oxygen level in the blood.
The pulse oximeter monitor enables doctors to know, second-to-second, whether a patient is getting sufficient oxygen. If the oxygen saturation goes below 90%, doctors will act quickly to diagnose and treat the cause of the low oxygen level. A patient can usually sustain a short period low oxygen saturation, e.g. up to 2 or 3 minutes, without permanent damage to the brain or cardiac arrest by an oxygen-starved heart.
The end-tidal carbon dioxide (CO2) monitor is a device that measures the concentration of CO2 in the gas exhaled by a patient on every breath. During normal ventilation, every exhaled breath contains CO2. When no CO2 is measured, there is no ventilation, and the doctor must act quickly to diagnose and treat the cause of the lack of ventilation.
Prior to the invention of these two monitors, it was possible for an anesthesiologist to mistakenly place a breathing tube in a patient's esophagus, instead of the trachea, and not know of the error until the patient sustained a cardiac arrest. With the addition of the two monitors, the lack of CO2 (there is no CO2 in the stomach or esophagus) from the end-tidal CO2 monitor immediately indicates that the tube is in the wrong place. The anesthesiologist can then remove the tube, resume mask ventilation with oxygen, and attempt to replace the tube into the windpipe. If the oxygen level to the patient's blood dips below 90%, this is a second piece of data that indicates that the patient is in danger of brain damage or cardiac arrest.
In addition, in the early 1990's the American Society of Anesthesiologists created the Difficult Airway Algorithm, which is a step-by-step approach for anesthesiologists to follow when the task of placing a breathing tube for an anesthetic is challenging or difficulty. This Algorithm dictates a standard of care for practitioners, and this advance in education lowered the number of mismanaged airways.
In the 1980's, surgical anesthesia claims were 80% of closed malpractice claims against anesthesiologists (American Society of Anesthesiologists Closed Claims database). By the 2000's, this number dropped to 65%. Brain damage represented 9% of claims, and nerve injury accounted for 22% of claims (23% were permanent and disabling, including loss of limb function, or paraplegia or quadriplegia) Less common claims were airway injury (7% of claims), emotional distress, (5% of claims), eye injuries including blindness (4% of claims), and awareness during general anesthesia (2% of claims).
Decreasing anesthesiologist malpractice premiums reflect the decrease in the number of catastrophic anesthesia claims for esophageal intubation, death, and brain death.
In 1985, the average malpractice insurance premium was $36,224 per year for a $1 Million per claim/$3 Million per year policy. By 2009, this decreased to $21,480, a striking 40% drop. (Anesthesia in the United States 2009, Anesthesia Quality Institute http://aqihq.org/Anesthesia%20in%20the%20US%202_19_10.pdf).
Specialties with the highest risk of facing malpractice claims are neurosurgery (19.1 percent), thoracic and cardiovascular surgery (18.9 percent) and general surgery (15.3 percent). Specialties with the lowest risks are family medicine (5.2 percent), pediatrics (3.1 percent) and psychiatry (2.6 percent). Anesthesiologists rank in the middle of the pack, at 7%. (Malpractice Risk According to Physician Specialty, Jena, et al, N Engl J Med 2011; 365:629-636.) From 1991 to 2005, this article identified 66 malpractice awards that exceeded $1 million dollars, which accounted for less than 1% of all payments. Obstetrics and gynecology accounted for the most payments (11), followed by pathology (10), anesthesiology (7), and pediatrics (7).
The yearly spending on malpractice payments against anesthesiologists decreased from $174.4 million in 2005 to $91.1 million in 2013, a decrease of $83.3 million, or a 41.4% decrease.
Of the 2,408 payments made during the 9-year period from 2005 – 2013, 567 (23.5%) were for outpatient events, and 1,841 (76.5%) were from inpatient events.
The average payment was $245,000, with inpatient anesthesia claims being significantly more expensive ($261,742 to $189,349 respectively). Inpatient claims accounted for 82% of the total amount paid.
Death was the most common outcome in both the inpatient and outpatient claims.
A second abstract from the same ASA meeting (abstract A1009) showed that non-operating room payments were significantly higher than operating room payments ($554,000 vs. $285,000; p=0.003).
A take home message is that anesthesia has serious risks, but those risks have decreased significantly in recent years, most likely because of improvements in monitoring and education. Compared to other specialties, the risk of an anesthesiologist being sued is about average among American medical specialties.
Dr. Nico Antone, an anesthesiologist at Stanford University, is married to Alexandra, a high-powered real estate agent obsessed with money. Their son, Johnny, an 11th-grader with immense potential, struggles to get the grades he'll need to attend an Ivy League college. After a screaming match with Alexandra, Nico moves himself and Johnny from Palo Alto, California, to his frozen childhood home of Hibbing, Minnesota. The move should help Johnny improve his grades and thus seem more attractive to universities, but Nico loves the freedom from his wife, too.
Hibbing also happens to be the hometown of music icon Bob Dylan. Joining the hospital staff, Nico runs afoul of a grouchy nurse anesthetist calling himself Bobby Dylan, who plays Dylan songs twice a week in a bar called Heaven's Door. As Nico and Johnny settle in, their lives turn around; they even start dating the gorgeous mother/daughter pair of Lena and Echo Johnson. However, when Johnny accidentally impregnates Echo, the lives of the Hibbing transplants start to implode.
In true page-turner fashion, first-time novelist Novak gets started by killing soulless Alexandra, which accelerates the downfall of his underdog protagonist now accused of murder. Dialogue is pitch-perfect, and the insults hurled between Nico and his wife are as hilarious as they are hurtful: "Are you my husband, Nico? Or my dependent?" The author's medical expertise proves central to the plot, and there are a few grisly moments, as when "dark blood percolated" from a patient's nostrils "like coffee grounds." Bob Dylan details add quirkiness to what might otherwise be a chilly revenge tale; we're told, for instance, that Dylan taught "every singer with a less-than-perfect voice…how to sneer and twist off syllables." Courtroom scenes toward the end crackle with energy, though one scene involving a snowmobile ties up a certain plot thread too neatly. By the end, Nico has rolled with a great many punches.

PAC-MAN Review
PAC-MAN Review: Everything Old Is New Again
Here is a classic game which is known and adored by plenty of people. It was released in 1980, and now thousands of new players download PAC-MAN and enjoy this unique Arcade gaming.
Graphics: 3
We would not put the things about this game under one umbrella, because some levels are really cool, the others are designed quite badly if we're honest. But it runs rather fast, though, someone would want it to be faster. So, you see, what we mean. Graphics are rather good, but you will feel that there is a room for improvement. You can apply or turn off different options. Here you will enjoy friendly music, commentary of someone who gives clues warning PacMan about existing danger, pointing at the fruits and so on. If the voice seems annoying, a player can tune it out.
Gameplay: 5
This game is considered iconic. Main character is Pac Man navigated by a player through a long maze where four ghosts live. Target is to get a lot of points which are provided when a Pac Man eats all Power Dots appearing on his way and avoids those ghosts. When the task is performed, you'll get to the next level. But that is not easy at all. Ghosts constitute a danger chasing Pac-Man inside the maze. These monsters are designed in the way to make gaming fun. Their behavior complicates task performance. Each contact with them results in life losing. In the beginning there are 3 lives. That number can be changed up to five. When you obtain 10 000 points, you are awarded with one extra life. This performance is also adjustable. To increase your bonus supply, you can eat fruits appearing from time to time. It is important to do it in a particular moment before it's too late.
Controls: 4
Controls are not extremely complex. Player has a control pad and stick applying them he makes a character to move in various directions. There are options of pausing the game and slowing down ghosts. Advance controls do not require using any buttons. You can switch between PacMan and ghost, but this is rather tiresome because game suggests to do it frequently. So, you can refuse this opportunity.
Replay Value: 5
Here there is randomness and an idea that a player gets an environment where he is expected to get in-depth, in those details developed by a designer. You can master your skills and, thus, try a level again and again in order to get a perfect result. Nowadays, there is the game family with other versions developed with the same plot but different additions. There is a female counterpart, half pinball, a bigger release with higher speed and cartoon stories. But the first original game still is very popular.
In PAC-MAN review, we tried to be objective showing the advantages and weak points of this game. But if you play it once, you'll forget about our findings and will hardly be able to interrupt.
Complexity allows mastering the skills.
High replayability.
There are tips.
Quite primitive graphics.
Addictive.

ASUU Twitter Account is Fake, We Are Yet To Reach Any Agreement With The Govt. – ASUU
ASUU Twitter Account is Fake, We Are Yet To Reach Any Agreement With The Government.
On Sunday the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU clears air on the news circulating around that the students of the Federal Universities should prepare for resumption, the union also said that the union is yet to reach any concrete agreement with the government on how to end its over seven months' strike.
If we can recall the Minister of Labour, Dr Chris Ngige, in an interview at the weekend said that six out of the nine demands by the union had been met by the government, ASUU disagreed with the declaration.
This information was made known by the National President of ASUU, Professor Biodun Ogunyemi, while taking the demands one by one, asked Nigerians to see which one had been met by the government.
"As far as we are concerned, nothing has been delivered to our members and our members don't want empty promises. Let us take the issues one after the other.
The withheld salaries of our members which is between four to eight months have not been paid, if paid, accounts of our members would have been credited. Same for Earned Academic Allowances, yet to be paid, he said."

The Union asked if they were the one to pay their withheld salaries and allowances or if they should be in charge of creating Visitation Panels.
Professor Biodun Ogunyemi said that is how they went about creating a fake Twitter account for the union and begin to circulate fake news."
The threat by the minister that the government could invoke labour laws if nothing was agreed to by the two parties soon, Ogunyemi said his union would never feel threatened in any way.
"We are ready for discussions if they invite us. The onus of universities reopening soon lies with the government. We go to meetings we are invited to.
Conclusively, Professor Biodun Ogunyemi said that the union have waited for the meeting promised by the government few days ago but it didn't happen as promised.

Well, yeah - "China's New Islands Are Clearly Military, U.S. Pacific Chief Says "
Kevin Baron of DefenseOne reports "China's New Islands Are Clearly Military, U.S. Pacific Chief Says" :
"I believe those facilities are clearly military in nature," Harris said at the Aspen Security Forum, an annual gathering in Colorado of dozens of top U.S. national security leaders, convened by the Aspen Institute.
In his notably undiplomatic remarks, Harris called on China to show meaningful diplomacy to resolve the territorial disputes. But the four-star admiral also appeared resigned to seeing further construction and eventual deployment of military aircraft and ships.
Fiery Cross Reef sits smack in the middle of South China Sea sea lanes
"They are building ports that are deep enough to host warships and they're building a 10,000-foot runway at Fiery Cross Reef," Harris said, referring to one of China's construction activities in the Spratly Islands that Japan has protested. "A 10,000-foot runaway is large enough to take a B-52, almost large enough for the Space Shuttle, and 3,000 feet longer than you need to take off a 747. So, there's no small airplane that requires a runway of that length. They're building rebutted aircraft hangers at some of the facilities there that are clearly designed, in my view, to host tactical fighter aircraft."
Development on Fiery Cross Reef
I think the Admiral probably said "revetted" and not "rebutted" but that's a minor note. The major note is that -
The top U.S. military officer in the Pacific sternly warned China on Friday to immediately cease its "aggressive coercive island building" in the South China Sea, which he argued was intended clearly for China's military use as forward operating bases in combat against their regional neighbors.

Tischler's asks for license to sell beer and wine
Alcohol sales likely to start this month, after board approval
by Bob Uphues December 3, 2013
One-Stop Shop: After 25 years, a local grocery store is seeking a liquor license. (Photo from Facebook)
Tischler Finer Foods has been a mainstay at 9118 Broadway Ave. in Brookfield for a quarter of a century. And while the store has undergone some periodic facelifts and reconfigurations — the store made some major improvements this past summer — one thing has been constant.
The store has never sold alcohol. Not that its owner, Dennis Tischler, has anything against the practice. It was more out of habit. The family's former store in Western Springs was dry, just like its town at the time. The Brookfield store followed suit.
That's about to change. At its Dec. 9 meeting, Brookfield village trustees will approve a Class 6 liquor license for Tischler's, allowing the grocery store to sell beer and wine. Trustees signaled their approval of the liquor license during a brief discussion of the item at their Nov. 25 committee of the whole meeting.
According to Tischler, the new beer and wine department should be up and running before Christmas.
"We've had people ask for it, with most commenting on one-stop shopping," said Tischler. "We just felt we needed it. Times change."
The family's Brookfield store is the lone location these days. Tischler's closed its Western Springs store back in 2003. Rick Tischler, Dennis' brother, later opened Tischlers Market and Deli in Plainfield.
It's been a while since the Brookfield store received a major makeover. Back in the early 2000s, the interior got some new murals. But the economic recession held back plans for a more significant change until last summer.
At that time, Tischler's expanded its produce, deli and bakery departments and installed new produce cases and freezers. The traffic pattern also changed inside the store, leaving some room up front for what will become the beer and wine section of the store.
"We thought the [beer and wine section] would complement the new items," said Tischler.

As expected, Colts wideouts a competitive bunch at camp
Posted 5:44 PM, August 11, 2019, by Mike Chappell, Updated at 05:45PM, August 11, 2019
Daurice Fountain
WESTFIELD, Ind. – The Indianapolis Colts' receivers room is congested and competitive.
Good luck to Chris Ballard, Frank Reich and the personnel staff when Aug. 31 rolls around and the 90-player training camp roster must be pared to 53, and when the 13 wideouts must be whittled to four, five, perhaps six for the Sept. 8 season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers.
"Yeah, I think those guys are competing,'' offensive coordinator Nick Sirianni said after Sunday's workout at Grand Park Sports Campus. "I can't say enough how much Kevin Patullo has been able to develop his position group. I see development big time, particularly with Reece Fountain and Marcus Johnson. Deon Cain is coming along now.
"I don't want to miss anybody, but they're all competing there for all those positions, all those two, three, four, five, six positions.''
Might Sirianni approach Ballard and lobby for the Colts to retain six receivers?
"No, he knows what he is doing,'' he said with a laugh.
In that delicate numbers game – how many to keep at each position? – the Colts almost certainly will carry five receivers. Six is a definite possibility, and Nos. 5-6 would need to be heavily involved on special teams.
As the Colts head into their final week of camp work, three wideouts are locks: T.Y. Hilton, Devin Funchess and rookie Parris Campbell. Campbell has missed the last nine practices with a hamstring injury, but Ballard took him in the second round of April's draft for a reason.
Returnees Chester Rogers and Zach Pascal are in the midst of solid camps, as are Cain and Fountain, a pair of 2018 draft picks.
Fountain led Colts receivers with five catches for 63 yards in the opening loss at Buffalo, which was a continuation of his emergence during training camp. He had at least two highlight catches during Saturday's practice. On one, Fountain battled with rookie corner Rock Ya-Sin and finally secured a ball that had been batted in the air. On the other, he snared a pass between two defensive backs.
Fountain was back at it Sunday. Despite being blanketed by safety George Odom and corner Jalen Collins along the right sideline, he came up with the reception.
Those have been more the rule than the exception for Fountain, who spent much of his rookie season on the practice squad.
"Really what I'm really impressed with Reece is that he's starting to show more consistency,'' Sirianni said. "He's got that body that you want from a receiver. He's big, strong and physical.''
Fountain is 6-2, 210.
"Now he's starting to get a little quicker,'' Sirianni said. "Now he's being a little quicker out of the break and he's doing a good job of catching contested balls. It just takes getting some separation in there that gets you yards after catches.
"Now, we're not fully getting to see it in practice because we are not tackling, but I'm excited to keep throwing him the ball and get some run-and-catch for him for the games coming.''
Cain also is a front-runner for a roster spot. His rookie season ended when he suffered a torn ACL in the preseason opener at Seattle.
"I think he's coming along,'' Sirianni said. "I could see it a little bit. It's his confidence that he's building in his injury. Early on I would say he was about what I expected. Right now, he's surprising me.
"He's exceeding my expectations I guess you could say so far. I really just see that confidence growing in him.''
We'd be remiss if we didn't mention T.Y. Hilton has been the best offensive player on the field throughout camp. Although the offense has lacked rhythm with Jacoby Brissett filling in for Andrew Luck, Hilton continually has beaten coverage, gotten open and made catches, easy and otherwise.
Competition for No. 3 QB
Brissett is the no-doubt No. 2 QB, but uncertainty exists after that between Phillip Walker and Chad Kelly.
Kelly seemed to take more of the reps with the second unit Sunday. That came on the heels of a strong performance at Buffalo: 13-of-19 for 121 passing yards, 53 yards on four rushes, including a 33-yard touchdown.
"Yeah, they know they're in a competition,'' Sirianni said. "Early in camp we were rotating the periods and felt like Phil had a little advantage. Phil started taking them and now we are back to rotating again.
"So they're competing. Chad played a really good game, he really did. Phil knows he wants to play better. Had played a really good game. He made a lot of plays out there sometimes when they weren't even available to make. He was good improvising.''
One issue to keep in mind when it comes to Kelly: he has been suspended for the first two games of the season for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy.
The team signed cornerback Isaiah Langley and waived tight end Zach Conque.

Piotr Jewdokimowicz Kosynkin (ros. Петр Евдокимович Косынкин, ur. 1903, zm. 17 lutego 1953) – radziecki generał major (od 17 listopada 1944), w latach 1940–1945 zastępca dowódcy garnizonu Kremla, w latach 1945–1953 dowódca garnizonu Kremla, w latach 1952–1953 szef ochrony osobistej Józefa Stalina.

W 1921 został żołnierzem Armii Czerwonej, a w 1925 żołnierzem Wojsk Pogranicznych OGPU w Ukraińskiej SRR (początkowo w Mohylowie Podolskim) i jednocześnie członkiem partii komunistycznej, studiował w Akademii Wojskowej im. Frunzego. Od 1939 był funkcjonariuszem operacyjnym NKWD jako dowódca samodzielnego batalionu GUGB NKWD ZSRR, a od 3 lutego do 29 kwietnia 1941 NKGB ZSRR. Następnie został zastępcą szefa Zarządu Komendantury Moskiewskiego Kremla, stanowisko to zajmował do śmierci, od 1945 równocześnie z funkcją dowódcy garnizonu Kremla i od 1952 równocześnie z funkcją szefa osobistej ochrony Stalina.

Zmarł nagle w wieku pięćdziesięciu lat na zawał mięśnia sercowego (nastąpiło to na ok. dwa tygodnie przed śmiercią Stalina). Został pochowany na Cmentarzu Nowodziewiczym.

Piotr Kosynkin figuruje w tzw. "Regestach akt śledczych mordu katyńskiego" (w zbiorach Prokuratury Generalnej RP) jako jedna z "osób zatrudnionych w aparacie NKWD w latach II wojny i mających związek ze sprawą wymordowania polskich oficerów jeńców w 1940 roku".

Dexrazoxane works to protect your heart from the harmful effects of certain types of chemotherapy. Dexrazoxane is a potent "intracellular chelating agent," meaning that it inactivates certain metal ions in the body such as harmful free radicals. The mechanism by which dexrazoxane exerts its cardioprotective activity is not fully understood.
Dexrazoxane can also be used to minimize the damage to tissues if a certain type of chemotherapy medication (anthracycline) leaks out of the vein (extravasation) while it is being administered.
When dexrazoxane injection is used to prevent heart damage caused by doxorubicin, it is given just before each dose of doxorubicin, by intravenous (IV, into a vein) infusion. When used to prevent tissue damage after extravasation, it is given once a day for 3 days, beginning no more than 6 hours after the leakage.
This medication was studied in conjunction with chemotherapy medications, making it difficult to determine if the side effects are truly caused by the dexrazoxane. Patients who received this medication had higher instances of low blood counts and changes in liver function tests than those who did not receive the medication. In addition, some experienced burning at the injection site. These side effects are discussed in more detail below.
This medication can cause liver toxicity, which your doctor may monitor for using blood tests called liver function tests. Notify your healthcare provider if you notice yellowing of the skin or eyes, your urine appears dark or brown or pain in your abdomen, as these can be signs of liver toxicity.
Exposure of an unborn child to this medication could cause birth defects, so you should not become pregnant or father a child while on this medication. Effective birth control is necessary during treatment. Even if your menstrual cycle stops or you believe you are not producing sperm, you could still be fertile and conceive. You should consult with your healthcare team before breastfeeding while receiving this medication.
