Research output: Unpublished contribution to conference › Unpublished Conference Paper › peer-review
This study explores an initiative within the UK healthcare sector to tackle grand challenges in the provision of healthcare by a push for more open and collaborative forms or organizing and strategizing. We analyze how actors within a local Sustainability and Transformation Partnership (STP) introduce novel forms of collaborating beyond established bureaucratic systems in the sector. We thereby show how the mandated push towards more open organizing created several underlying tensions and dilemmas related to the complexity and scope of the grand challenge, and competing demands from the bureaucratic system and inclusion and exclusion. Our paper identifies a repertoire of practices that underpin the cyclical process of complexifying versus simplifying grand challenges. We show how these practices conjointly distribute complexity across an inter-organizational system, as actors parcel and move complexity into different pockets of the system, enabling dynamic participation and continuously broadening contributions to collaborative strategizing work.

The top no fail tips to choosing an Interior Designer that's best for you!
Choosing a designer is as important as any other life decision such as choosing a doctor, a babysitter for your child, or a dentist. Although designing your house may not be life or death, it sure does impact the sanity of you and your family and should be considered an important decision.
Interior Designers come a dime a dozen, but experienced designers with a long career history may not. It is important to inquire about credentials, and in the business of design nothing speaks louder than experience.
How long has the designer you are considering been in business, do they own their own business or do they work for someone else? The way the economy has been over the past 5 years, if you are fortunate enough to find a designer who has been in business for over 20 years and stayed in business maintaining customers during the recession, you may have found a gem. Many designers because of the economy were forced to work for furniture companies, or forced to find other employment all together, as unfortunate as this is it did weed out alot of the bulk leaving behind mostly designers with years and years of experience.
Most designers work by the hour, but don't get hung up on the hourly rate of the designer. An experienced designer may charge a higher hourly rate, but the job is going to get done sooner and with more ease than a newer designer that charges less of an hourly rate.
Most designers, atleast the good ones, are willing to work with you. If the job is going to be large, and include furniture, designers have more wiggle room with prices to offer you.
A good designer won't only design one particular style. After reviewing a designers portfolio you should see all different works with different styles; traditional, asian inspired, or even country. It is important that they are able to incorporate whatever your style is with their design expertise.
You should have a connection with your designer.
As strange as that may sound you will be spending alot of time with your designer and so it is important to have a strong relationship from the beginning. The vibe that you get from your initial consultation and the connection you organically have is extremely important. It is important throughout the design process that you feel as if your needs are being met and your concerns are being heard and addressed, and that you trust and respect your designers decisions these are reflective of the connection you have.

Science Fiction or Fact: Could a 'Robopocalypse' Wipe Out Humans?
By Adam Hadhazy 2012-02-23T16:26:09Z
Our terrifying nemeses in the coming war of man versus machine? Terminators on the rampage in "Terminator 2: Judgement Day."
(Image: © Tristar Pictures)
In this weekly series, Life's Little Mysteries explores the plausibility of popular sci-fi concepts. Warning: Some spoilers ahead!
If a bunch of sci-fi flicks have it right, a war pitting humanity against machines will someday destroy civilization. Two popular movie series based on such a "robopocalypse," the "Terminator" and "Matrix" franchises, are among those that suggest granting greater autonomy to artificially intelligent machines will end up dooming our species. (Only temporarily, of course, thanks to John Connor and Neo.)
Given the current pace of technological development, does the "robopocalypse" scenario seem more far-fetched or prophetic? The fate of the world could tip in either direction, depending on who you ask.
While researchers in the computer science field disagree on the road ahead for machines, they say our relationship with machines probably will be harmonious, not murderous. Yet there are a number of scenarios that could lead to non-biological beings aiming to exterminate us.
"The technology already exists to build a system that will destroy the whole world, intentionally or unintentionally, if it just detects the right conditions," said Shlomo Zilberstein, a professor of computer science at the University of Massachusetts.
Machines at our command
Let's first consider the optimistic viewpoint: that machines always will act as our servants, not the other way around.
"One approach is not to develop systems that can be so dangerous if they are out of control," Zilberstein said.
Something like Skynet – the computerized defense network in "The Terminator" that decides to wipe out humanity – is already possible. So why has such a system not been built? A big reason: Nuclear-armed nations such as the United States would not want to turn over any of the responsibility for launching warheads to a computer. "What if there is a bug in the system? No one is going to take that risk," said Zilberstein. [What If There Were Another Technologically Advanced Species?]
On a smaller scale, however, a high degree of autonomy has been granted to predator drones flying in the Middle East. "The number of robotic systems that can actually pull the trigger autonomously is already growing," said Zilberstein.
Still, a human operator monitors a drone and is given the final say whether to proceed with a missile strike. That certainly is not the case with Skynet, which, in the "Terminator" films, is given control of America's entire nuclear arsenal.
In "The Terminator," the military creates the program with the objective of reducing human error and slowness of response in case of an attack on the U.S.
When human controllers come around to realizing the danger posed by an all-powerful Skynet, they try to shut it down. Skynet interprets this act as a threat to its existence, and in order to counter its perceived human enemy, Skynet launching America's nukesat Russia, provoking a retaliatory strike. Billions die in a nuclear holocaust.Skynet then goes on to build factories that churn out robot armies to eliminate the remainder of humankind.
In a real-life scenario, Zilberstein thinks simple safeguards would prevent an autonomous system from threatening more people than it is designed to, perhaps in guarding country's borders, for example. Plus, no systems would be programmed with the ability to make broad strategic decisions the way Skynet does.
"All the systems we're likely to build in the-near future will have specific abilities," Zilberstein said. "They will be able to monitor a region and maybe shoot, but they will not replace a [human] general."
Robots exceeding our grasp
Michael Dyer, a computer scientist at the University of California, Los Angeles, is less optimistic. He thinks "humans will ultimately be replaced by machines" and that the transition might not be peaceful. [Americans Want Robots, and They're Willing to Pay]
The continued progress in artificial intelligence research will lead to machines as smart as we are in the next couple hundred years, Dyer predicts. "Advanced civilizations reach a point of enough intelligence to understand how their own brain works, and then they build synthetic versions of themselves," he says.
The desire to do so might come from attempts at establishing our own immortality – and that opportunity might be too much for humanity to resist. (Whowouldn't want to spend their ever-after with their consciousness walking around in a robot shell?)
Maybe that sort of changeover from biology to technology goes relatively smoothly. Other rise-of-the-machines scenarios are less smooth.
Dyer suggests a new arms race of robotic system could result in one side running rampant. "In the case of warfare, by definition, the enemy side has no control of the robots that are trying to kill them," Dyer said. Like Skynet, the manufactured might turn against the manufacturers.
Or an innocuous situation of overdependency on robots spirals out of control. Suppose a factory that makes robots is not following human commands, so an order is issued to shut off power to the factory. "But unfortunately, robots happen to manage the power station and so they refuse. So a command is issued by humans to stop the trucks from delivering necessary materials to the factory, but the drivers are robots, so they also refuse," Dyer says.
Perhaps using the Internet, robotic intelligences wrest control of a society that depends too much on its automata. ("The Animatrix," a 2003 collection of short cartoons, including some back stories for "The Matrix" movies, describes such a situation.)
Overall, a bit of wisdom would prevent humankind from falling into the traps dreamed up by Hollywood screenwriters. But the profit motive at companies has certainly engendered more automation, and the Cold War's predication on the threat of mutually assured destruction points out that rationality does not always win.
"Doomsday scenarios are pretty easy to create, and I wouldn't rule out that kind of possibility," said Zilberstein. "But I'm personally not that worried."
Plausibility rating: Military leaders and corporations probably will not be so stupid as to add high levels of programmed autonomy to catastrophically strong weapon systems and critical industrial sectors. We give the "robopocalypse" two out of four Rocketboys.

Wayne Pivac to Succeed Gatland as Wales Head Coach Next Year
by D. Djokic · July 9, 2018
On July 9th, the Welsh Rugby Union announced on their official website that Wayne Pivac would replace Warren Gatland and take on the role of the new Wales head coach. Pivac will remain at his current coaching position, and coach the Scarlets for another year. In July 2019, the New Zealander will sign a four-year contract with the WRU and take over his new coaching position.
Until yesterday, it was unknown who would take Warren Gatland's position as the new head coach of Wales. Gatland decided to step back from his position a while ago. In 2015, Warren announced he would stay with Wales until his contract expires, i.e., until December 2019. "I am here until 2019, the plan then is to come home for a period," Gatland told reporters.
Gatland started his coaching career in 1989 with Galwegian Rugby Football Club. In 1994, he took the position of the assistant coach at the Thames Valley. Two years later he became the director of rugby at Connacht. After that, Gatland coached Ireland's national team between 1998 and 2001. Before becoming the head coach of Wales, Gatland spent three years with London Wasps, and another two with Waikato.
As the time for Gatland's departure approached, the Welsh Rugby Union made their final decision. They were negotiating with Pivac for the last two years, and finally reached an agreement with the Scarlets' boss. However, UK's best betting sites had two other contenders in mind – Dave Rennie and Scott Robinson. The two New Zealanders were also considered for Gatland's position, but Wayne Pivac eventually got the position.
"I will be doing my best to protect the legacy which Warren Gatland, with the help of those players, will inevitably leave behind. It will be an almighty challenge, but one that I'm more than ready for and one that I will relish," said Pivac.

State Bar of Michigan Real Property Law Section E-Newsletter Recognizes GMH Attorneys
by Giarmarco, Mullins & Horton, P.C. | May 31, 2012 | Firm News, Recognitions, William H. Horton
The State Bar of Michigan Real Property Law Section E-Newsletter dated May 1, 2012 took note of the litigation being handled by Bill Horton and Greg Gamalski on behalf of Oakland County against Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Summary judgment was granted in favor of the County. Damages are now being calculated. See article below…
By K.J. Miller and Jeffrey Jamison, Dykema Gossett, PLLC
Last month, Judge Victoria Roberts, E.D. Michigan, ruled that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are not exempt from paying real estate transfer taxes and are liable for millions of dollars of unpaid taxes. The two mortgage giants have long claimed exemptions based on specific federal statutes exempting them from "all taxation." In Oakland County v. Federal Housing Finance Agency (E.D. MI., No. 11-12666, March 23, 2012), Judge Roberts rejected this argument and granted summary judgment in favor of plaintiffs.
The Court explained that the "Supreme Court in [United States v. Wells Fargo Bank, 485 U.S. 351 (1988)] made clear that where a statute prohibits the collection of 'all taxation,' an excise tax is still due." The facts in the Oakland County case were largely undisputed and the sole issue in controversy was whether the federal statute at issue precluded the imposition of state and local real estate transfer taxes. According to the decision, the parties did not dispute the characterization of the real estate transfer taxes as excise taxes, and the Court concluded: "Wells Fargo dictates that the defendant's exemptions do not cover the Transfer Taxes," and that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac "are liable for the Transfer Taxes." The damages in the Oakland County case are estimated to be $13.5 million.
An appeal of this ruling—the first ruling involving Fannie Mae's and Freddie Mac's claim of exemption from real estate transfer taxes—is expected given its potentially far-reaching implications. Although borrowers may attempt to use this ruling as an affirmative defense or a counterclaim, such claims would fail as the real estate transfer tax statutes do not provide private causes of action or defenses for borrowers.

Design, messaging strategy, art direction of archival imagery, and development of this dual-purpose site celebrating Reed's first 100 years, and launching a $200-million fundraising effort.
For Reed's Centennial, we advised on and concocted some of the major messaging, then designed the core Centennial brand, the three sites below, a "case statement" for the Campaign and a host of direct mail pieces, ads, and banners. The fundraising effort was a success.
One of the more fascinating – and surreal – parts of the project was creating the marquee images for the Centennial Reunions site. Because the idea of class reunions is about bringing together "then" (memories of college) and "now" (reuniting with old classmates today), I pitched sourcing a few evocative archival images and reshooting them today. There was something incredibly powerful about realizing, as I set up my tripod and framed my shot to match, that another photographer had stood on the very same spot, thinking the very same technical and compositional things, 100 years in the past.
The Reed Centennial brand, which I designed to underline both the college's history and tradition of academic rigor, and, with a touch of sans serif, its firm foundation today.
Reed Centennial's website landing page. The site itself included a comprehensive archive of imagery we helped curate, cleaned up, and integrated into a central slideshow. This being a college, the site was also designed to integrate with Reed's archives for further inquiry and study.
Reed Centennial: a component of the reunions website where viewers can see and share the then/now images we created.
The first spread of the Reed Centennial Campaign case statement. To underscore the richness of what Reed had accomplished in 100 years, we designed a timeline to run the length of the book.
An interior spread from the Reed Centennial Campaign case statement.
Reed Centennial Campaign website home, which we designed to be light and focused on the future, without losing the college's mission of academic rigor.
In addition to digital repair and cleanup of a host of archival images, we also created the gateway for the collection in Reed's Archives.
Reed Centennial: a Reunions website we designed to inspire attendance (it proved to be the largest reunions ever). In addition to design, development and key messaging, we also created then/now images juxtaposing historic images with the same shot today.

WM 2021 cancelled
The 17th FAI World Paragliding Championships were to take place in Chamoux-Sur-Gelon, France, from May 23 to June 5, 2021. It was to bring together some 250 people from some 50 nations over a period of 3 weeks.
The organisers and many volunteers worked tirelessly to ensure that this closed-door event would take place despite the difficult health context. In the end, the evolution of the Covid-19 global pandemic remained too problematic.
Air Evénement, the FFVL and the CIVL were hoping for a "safe, fair and satisfying", event, as required by the FAI rules. Today, too many uncertainties remain. Therefore, the decision has been taken to cancel the championship.
The organisers thank the many people who worked on this project and the teams who shared their worries and their support.
They leave 2021 behind with regret but, they believe, with wisdom.
They are ready to run the next World Championship in 2023, as agreed with the CIVL. They will welcome you to an event that will reflect better what our sport is about.

A sign along Ashley Road in Great Bridge is meant to tame the speeders that routinely traverse the route. (Tony Stein)
Be brave, Ashley Roaders. Help may be on the way.
Yes, it's the same Ashley Road I have referred to as Ashley International Raceway because there are so many speeders. And I have called Ashley's 25-mile-an-hour speed limit the Halley's Comet Law because it is observed about once every 75 years. I have lived on Ashley Road, in the heart of Great Bridge, since 1971. During that time, the sound of traffic has risen from an occasional hum to a frequent pedal to the metal growl.
Never mind that there are big signs that say "25." Lately there have been hopeful lawn boards that ask drivers to respect the speed limit and the neighborhood. Result? To an annoying and unsafe degree, zip, zilch, nil and nada. Clearly, sterner measures have been called for. The city has heard the call and is planning a pilot project to test a possible solution.
There was a public hearing a few days back at which city traffic engineer Steve Froncillo talked about speed humps. That's right. Humps, not the speed bumps more familiar to drivers. A city leaflet describes a speed hump as an area raised three to six inches in height over a minimum of eight feet. It's safe to cross them at the stated limit of 25. The sudden rise of a speed bump lowers the safe speed to five miles an hour
So what has raised Ashley Road's vehicle rate from 1,000 a day to 3,800 a day? Ashley is about half a mile of mostly straight road that is a direct whiz-bang connection between Battlefield Boulevard and Mount Pleasant Road. Both are big time auto arteries. I have been told there have been sounds of drag racing on Ashley in the middle of the night. I haven't heard them, but others say they have.
For a while after I moved into my house I took an aggressive approach. I would stand at the edge of my yard and shout at drivers I perceived to be speeding.
"Slow down, idiot!" I would yell.
I quit that approach for two reasons. One, it had no apparent effect. Two, a neighbor reminded me that in the current social climate a surly driver with a handgun in the glove compartment might decide that the idiot was the noisy gink on the side of the road.
The city pamphlet about speed humps also lists what it calls their disadvantages. They increase emergency response times and may damage emergency vehicles if they are not "carefully" designed. It also notes that traffic noise may increase in the vicinity of the hump. On the plus side, the city says humps slow traffic, require minimum maintenance and have little effect on snow removal.

Unfortunately, the democratic process is seldom speedy. There will be more studies, including installing humps for six months and evaluating the results: are they an effective answer or not?
Meanwhile, I can testify that the police department has done its best to hold the tide of speeders at bay. They're on Ashley Road often and there are afternoons when the street sounds like it's testing time in a siren factory.
Go, cops! Chesapeake absolutely does not need neighborhood NASCAR.

Results depend on the nature of cause.
Epiphora is a condition where there is excessive watering of eyes, clinically the condition constitutes insufficient tears drainage from the tear drainage system (i.e. Nasolacrimal system).
Aging may be one of the reasons for the watering of the eyes.
In neonates and infants, failure of the nasolacrimal duct to open.
Poor reconstruction of the nasolacrimal duct system after trauma to the area.
Epiphora is diagnosed by clinical observation, history and presentation of the lids.
Fluorescein dye (to detect the obstruction).
If the Epiphora is due to lid disorder ie, (ectropion - lids turned inwards or ectropion - lids turned outwards), then lid repair is indicated, punctual irrigation is also required. In infants with nasolacrimal defects, a nasolacrimal duct probe is used and a tube replacement, either temporary (Crawford) or permanent (Jones), is carried out. A surgical procedure called dacryocystorhinostomy is done to join the lacrimal sac to the nasal mucosa in order to restore lacrimal drainage.
Temporary symptomatic relief may be achieved for a short time using homeopathy. Long-term benefit may not be achieved. Homeopathy is not recommended for epiphora.
Case-1: Glad that I don not have to undergo surgery anymore, thanks to homeopathy!

Durbin, Booker Call Out Barr, Wray For Inadequate Effort To Combat White Supremacist Terrorism
WASHINGTON—Following another devastating incident of domestic terrorism committed by a white supremacist, this time in El Paso, Texas, U.S. Senators Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Cory Booker (D-NJ) today pressed Attorney General William Barr and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Christopher Wrayabout what the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI are doing to combat white supremacist violence.
"After the horrific September 11th terrorist attacks, your agencies shifted focus from investigating and prosecuting international terrorism attacks after the fact to disrupting and preventing attacks before they took place. The American people expect you to attack white supremacist terrorism with the same dogged and single-minded approach. It is imperative that you immediately take the initiative in leading a coordinated nationwide effort by federal, state, and local law enforcement and intelligence to disrupt and prevent white supremacist attacks before they take place," Durbin and Booker wrote.
Today's letter is a follow-up to a letter that Durbin and Booker, along with Senators Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Chris Coons (D-DE), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), and Kamala Harris (D-CA), sent more than three months ago, calling out the Trump Administration for shifting its approach to tracking domestic terrorism incidents to obfuscate the white supremacist threat. In that letter to AG Barr and FBI Director Wray, the Senators noted that the FBI had recently and inexplicably eliminated a domestic terror category focused specifically on white supremacist incidents, even though such a category had existed for the past decade. The Administration replaced that specific category with a new one for "racially-motivated violent extremism," which inappropriately combines incidents involving white supremacists and so-called "Black identity extremists." The inflammatory and misleading "Black identity extremists" label was created inexplicably by the FBI in 2017 without supporting evidence, and drew swift and vocal condemnation from activists, law enforcement officers, and lawmakers.
Three weeks ago during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Director Wray admitted to Durbin that the majority of domestic terrorism arrests this year involved white supremacists. Booker questioned Director Wray regarding the number of violent attacks and fatalities attributed to white supremacists in the past two years, however, Wray did not provide precise numbers due to the Administration's decision to eliminate the specific designation for white supremacist incidents.
In March, Durbin reintroduced the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act with Senators Booker, Klobuchar, Coons, Whitehouse, Blumenthal, and Harris; Senators Cardin, Duckworth, Kaine, Markey, Sanders, Schatz, Reed, and Van Hollen also have cosponsored the bill. This bill – the only legislation pending in the Senate to address this threat – would enhance the federal government's efforts to prevent domestic terrorism by requiring federal law enforcement agencies to regularly assess this threat, focus their resources on the most significant domestic terrorism threats, and provide training and resources to assist state, local, and tribal law enforcement in addressing these threats.
Full text of today's letter is available here and below:
Dear Attorney General Barr and Director Wray:
On May 2, 2019, we sent you a letter, also signed by Senators Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN)), Christopher Coons (D-DE), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), and Kamala Harris (D-CA), asking what the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) are doing to combat white supremacist violence and expressing our concern that you are minimizing this growing domestic terrorism threat. More than three months later, we are still waiting for a response.
Our nation is in mourning after yet another devastating incident of domestic terrorism allegedly committed by a white man motivated by racist and anti-immigrant hatred. It is clear that violent white supremacists are the most significant domestic terrorism threat facing our nation today. And, yet, Mr. Attorney General, as far as we can tell, you have not uttered a single word in public about this grave threat to American security since you became our nation's top law enforcement officer.
Moreover, the Trump Administration has made the inexplicable and irresponsible decision to stop tracking white supremacist incidents as a separate category of domestic terrorism. The Administration created a new category for "racially-motivated violent extremism," which inappropriately combines incidents involving white supremacists and so-called "Black identity extremists," a fabricated category that has been widely criticized by law enforcement experts.
Given the large number of white supremacist attacks, it is clear that this reclassification downplays the significance of this threat. Indeed, Director Wray admitted to Senator Durbin just three weeks ago that the majority of domestic terrorism arrests this year involved white supremacists. Senator Booker questioned Director Wray regarding the number of violent attacks and fatalities attributed to white supremacists in the past two years, however, he did not provide precise numbers due to the Administration's decision to stop specifically tracking white supremacist attacks. If we do not know the scope of this problem, how can we hope to effectively combat it?
You also have not responded to multiple inquiries asking what Congress can do to help your agencies more effectively combat white supremacist violence. We specifically asked you for your views on our Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act, the only legislation pending in the Senate to address the white supremacist threat. This bill would establish permanent offices to combat domestic terrorism at DOJ, the FBI, and the Department of Homeland Security. The bill also requires federal law enforcement to regularly assess domestic terrorism threats, focus limited resources on the most significant threats, and provide training and resources to assist state, local, and tribal law enforcement in addressing these threats. This would produce a sustained and coordinated effort with significantly more resources directed towards combatting white supremacist violence.
After the horrific September 11th terrorist attacks, your agencies shifted focus from investigating and prosecuting international terrorism attacks after the fact to disrupting and preventing attacks before they took place. The American people expect you to attack white supremacist terrorism with the same dogged and single-minded approach. It is imperative that you immediately take the initiative in leading a coordinated nationwide effort by federal, state, and local law enforcement and intelligence to disrupt and prevent white supremacist attacks before they take place. The victims of El Paso, Chabad of Poway synagogue, Mother Emanuel Church, the Oak Creek Sikh Temple, the Tree of Life Synagogue and many other white supremacist attacks deserve no less.
Please respond immediately to the following questions that we posed to you more than three months ago:
What specific steps, if any, have you ordered DOJ and the FBI to take to respond to the threat of white supremacist violence?
How are DOJ and the FBI currently allocating counterterrorism resources to address this threat?
How do you justify the change in tracking domestic terrorism incidents?
Will you rescind this change and return to the long-standing practice of tracking white supremacist violence as a separate category of domestic terrorism incidents?
Will you take this opportunity to endorse the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act?
After the New Zealand mosque massacre, President Trump was asked whether he thought white nationalism was a growing threat. He responded: "I don't, really … I think it's a small group of people that have very, very serious problems, I guess." Do you agree with the President's remarks?
We look forward to your prompt response.

New Report: Hospitals Using Observation Status to Avoid Medicare Fines
For years, patients and advocates have been warning of the increasing use of the patient classification status known as "observation stays." A growing number of patients covered by Medicare, have spent days in the hospital, only to be surprised with large out-of-pocket costs and an inability to access long-term care because they were totally unaware the hospital never actually admitted them as a patient. Legislation signed by President Obama this summer was designed to limit the use of "observation stays."
"The Notice of Observation Treatment and Implication for Care Eligibility Act would require hospitals to notify beneficiaries receiving observation services for more than 24 hours of their status as an outpatient under observation. The written notification would have to explain that because the beneficiary is receiving outpatient rather than inpatient services, they will be subject to cost-sharing requirements that apply to outpatient services. The notice also must say that the beneficiary's outpatient stay will not count toward the three-day inpatient stay required for a beneficiary to be eligible for Medicare coverage of subsequent skilled-nursing facility services." …Modern Healthcare
Now, a new analysis by the Wall Street Journal shows that observation stays have been used even more than previously documented. In fact, the WSJ reports observation stays at hospitals have increased 156% and explains why many hospitals have lowered their readmissions and thus the fines that come from too many Medicare patients returning to the hospital.
"…at hospitals around the country, more patients are entering or re-entering hospitals under something called "observation status"—a category that keeps them out of the readmission tallies. Patients on observation status can remain in the hospital for days, and typically receive care that is indistinguishable from inpatient stays, experts say. But under Medicare billing rules, the stays are considered outpatient visits, and as such, don't trigger penalties under the health law.
The Journal's analysis of Medicare billing data shows that increases in observation stays can skew the readmission numbers, letting hospitals avoid penalties even if patients continue to have complications and return for repeat visits. Observation stays generally are cheaper for the government, but in some cases they can lead to big bills that are the patient's responsibility."
In other words, rather than managing care to reduce the costs of readmission, many hospitals are relying on an administrative sleight of hand to avoid penalties.
Across the roughly 3,500 short-term acute-care hospitals—often referred to as general hospitals—that face the penalty program, the Journal identified a drop in readmission rates of about 9% from 2010 to 2013 for penalty-program conditions. Follow-up observation-stay rates increased about 48%. The rise in observation stays accounted for about 40% of the decline in readmissions, by the Journal's measure.
So while hospitals avoid paying penalties and Medicare pays less to beneficiaries, we all know who ends up footing the bill again — seniors and their families.

Soros Strikes Again: Mega Donors of Anti-Trump 'Resistance' Group Leaked
by Joshua Caplan
Unredacted 2015 tax forms were leaked to the Washington Free Beacon, revealing mega donors to a leading anti-Trump 'resistance' group. The usual suspects cut sizable checks to the group, such a George Soros' The Open Society Foundation and The Ford Foundation, which gave over $2 million.
FOX News reported:
The Free Beacon has obtained the group's unredacted 2015 tax forms that shed light on its funders, who provide millions of dollars in assistance. The group appears to rely heavily on a few major liberal foundations, organizations, and unions.
The Center for Community Change's largest contribution was $3,000,000 from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, which was initially created by Will Kellogg, the food manufacturer and founder of Kellogg Company. The Ford Foundation, which was first created by the founders of the Ford Motor Company, added a $2,350,000 donation. The Open Society Foundation, a foundation run by liberal billionaire mega-donor George Soros, gave $1,750,000 to the Center for Community Change.
Other donors to the organization include the California Endowment, which gave $524,500; the Marquerite Casey Foundation, which gave $515,000; Fidelity Charitable Gift, which donated $505,100; and the National Immigration Law Center, which gave $316,000.
Click for more from The Washington Free Beacon.
While President Trump is under attack by Soros, his own Department of Justice refuses to extradite the liberal billionaire's associate from China.
Where the hell is AG Sessions?
What does the Chinese Intelligence turncoat know about the Deep State and why are they protecting him?
Miles Kwok has been convicted of multi-billion dollar financial crimes in both the United States and China after working as a Chinese intelligence asset and receiving the three highest medals from Chinese intelligence for providing surveillance on US political figures. While working for Chinese Intel, Kwok was tied to political bribes, kidnappings, misappropriation of funds and alleged abuse of women – including charges of rape and confinement.
Then, however, Kwok turned on his spymasters and stole approximately $8 billion dollars from the Chinese State in a sophisticated financial crime.
During his time in the United States, Kwok has emerged as a major bundler and fundraiser for Hillary Clinton. He was seen at the Clinton Global Initiative Conference in New York and has been seen dining at Cipriani at the Sherry Netherland where Kwok lives in a $4.8 million-dollar apartment with George Soros. Soros has been a major funder of the Clintons and has funded various front organizations, think tanks and charities who utilize violence and disruption in their attempts to destabilize President Trump. Their goal is to topple Democratically elected governments, particularly in Eastern Europe. Soros was, of course, a Nazi collaborator.
Kwok has become a sticking point in US-Sino negotiations in North Korea. Chinese President Xi Jinping raised the issue of Kwok's extradition in formal negotiations at Mar Lago. Dr. Henry Kissinger has argued the chances of continued and increased Chinese cooperation in disarming North Korea would be enhanced if Kwok was extradited.
Not surprisingly, leading the charge to fight Kwok's extradition to China is Democrat super lawyer David Boise who represented Al Gore before the US Supreme Court in the 2000 Presidential recount.
McMaster, deeply connected to Soros, blocks the extradition that would enhance the President's negotiations in attempts to get the assistance of the Chinese in the coming showdown with North Korea.
To no one's surprise, National Security Advisor H.R McMaster has adamantly opposed the extradition to China of Democrat Party insider and Soros associate, Kwok. McMaster previously worked for a think tank funded by Soros in conjunction with the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations. Israeli intelligence claims that McMaster is in direct email communications with Soros as well as General David Petraeus. Petraeus is a Clinton retainer who has also pushed to block Kwok's delivery into the hands of the Chinese authorities.
CIA Director Mike Pompeo has also actively opposed the extradition of Kwok leading many to believe that Kwok functioned as a double agent for the CIA under the Clintons. Pompeo, who was a fairly independent Conservative Republican when in the House, has become a mandarin for the old boy spooks at Langley, who are anxious to bury many of the CIA's misdeeds of the Clinton and Obama years. Kwok also had an affair with Wendi Dang when she was married to Rupert Murdoch. The beautiful and exotic Dang is known as a Mata Hari who sources say was most likely Kwok's handler when he was working for Chinese Intelligence and Kwok was cozying up to the Clinton Political machine. He also introduced Wendi Dang to Tony Blair.
Kwok introduced Dang to former Prime Minister Tony Blair. Kwok has donated at least $3 million to Tony Blair's New York-based non-profit. Blair also admitted to receiving another $2 million which he put into his private personal bank account in return for weighing in with McMaster to oppose Kwok's extradition. When asked what this fee was for, Blair said without explanation that it was "for accounting purposes."
President Trump has already made significantly more progress in getting Chinese cooperation in our efforts to pressure and isolate the North Koreans and their nuclear threat. At the same time, it appears that the Chinese and the Russians have been providing a highly proprietary blend of rocket fuel that Kim Jong-un is using to propel his controversial show of muscle through a series of launches to show that he might reach Guam or the continental United States.

Enjoy a Black Tea Old Fashioned and some good old fashioned board game fun at Great Oaks Tavern in Wadsworth, Ohio.
Sip and Play at These Board Game Bars
January 25, 2022 –––––– Sam Stone, , , ,
Perhaps you've enjoyed a boozy board-game night at a friend's home, but have you ever been to an entire bar dedicated to tabletop games? These four watering holes not only bring whisky and cocktails to the table, but also an impressive selection of board games. You can savor a bourbon on the rocks while playing Battleship, or sip a cocktail while immersed in a round of chess.
ST. LOUIS'S BOARD GAME HAVEN
Pieces, St. Louis
With between 900 and 1,000 board games, it's nearly impossible to run out of options at Pieces. "This number fluctuates because we are constantly buying new games or pulling them off the shelves to repair and refurbish them," says bar manager Theresa Schafer. Fan-favorite games include the strategy game Wingspan, and Medium, a party game, according to Schafer. Pieces carries 16 different whiskies, like Redemption rye ($7), Lagavulin 16 year old ($12), and a host of cocktails. Sip on a Jack and a Ginger ($7.50)—Jack Daniel's whiskey, ginger beer, and lemon juice—which Schafer says is the bar's most popular whiskey cocktail, while trying your hand at tile-placement game Ginnykub.
PLAY IN THE CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS
Hex&Co., New York City
Hex&Co. has locations in Manhattan's Upper West and Upper East Side, and the latter serves liquor. The bar features a collection of over 1,000 rotating games, with more than 500 available to play at any given time, according to co-owner Greg May. Popular games include Settlers of Catan and Codenames, which you can play while sipping one of the bar's 10 whiskies. Options include Aberlour 12 year old, Elijah Craig Small Batch, and Laphroaig 10 year old, priced from $9 to $11 a pour. Try Hex&Co.'s most popular whisky cocktail, the Back Room Deal ($14), which May describes as "Aberlour 12 year old and Noilly Pratt sweet vermouth, a dash of both Angostura bitters and Dashfire orange bitters, a touch of Laphroaig 10 year old, and a few drops of a saline solution to wake the whole thing up." Sip this magical cocktail with a game to match it, Magic the Gathering.
GAMES AND COCKTAILS IN OHIO
Great Oaks Tavern, Wadsworth, Ohio
Great Oaks Tavern boasts over 600 board games, and that collection is constantly growing, according to co-owner Alex Nassos. "We do have some rare and out-of-print games, but the most popular will always be the classics," Nassos adds. The bar has a whisky list of 13 rotating bottles, including Woodford Reserve Master's Collection ($25) and Blackened ($8). Like the whiskies, the cocktails rotate seasonally, and have included such hits as a Black Tea Old Fashioned ($11), which consists of bourbon, black tea simple syrup, and lemon. Since classic games are the most popular at Great Oaks, go the classic route and enjoy a simple pour like Maker's Mark ($8) and a game of Scrabble.
ALL OCCASION FUN IN PHILLY
Queen & Rook Café, Philadelphia
Boasting more than 1,300 board games, Queen & Rook is a fun spot for groups, families, and date nights. "[We have] everything from family games and classics, like Don't Break the Ice, or chess, to modern games like Everdell or Wingspan," says co-owner Edward Garcia.

Pakistan to Launch Ferry Service to Iran
By editor on 3rd June 2018 in Transport
Pakistan is planning to launch ferry services from its Karachi port to Iran, the United Arab Emirates and Oman with an aim to enhance connectivity and provide more services to the people.
According to the South Asian country's Federal Minister for shipping Mir Hasil Khan Bizenjo, the draft Ferry Service Policy would be present at the next Cabinet meeting for approval.
"In the draft policy we have given a wide range of concessions, with a tax holiday up to 2040. There will also be no duty and taxes on ferry service as well as on purchase of a ship for introducing the service in the country," he said, according to the Business Standard.
He said initially ferries will be launched from Karachi to Iran, Dubai and Oman.
Bizenjo said the Ministry of Maritime Services had also suggested that there be no port charges for 4 to 5 years to attract prospective investors to launch ferry and dining cruise services.
He said that during former president Pervaz Musharraf's era a ferry service was launched but flopped badly because of no regulations and rules to run a completely new trade in the country.
He said the draft policy covers issues such as immigration and narcotics to limit loopholes for any abuse of the service.
Bizenjo said the ferry services would be run by the private and public sectors with the government's role reducing to issuing licenses by the Director General Ports and Shipping.
He said the Pakistan National Shipping Corporation can also run its ferry service.
"We hope to attract international investors for this service with our rebates," he added.

La Lewis divenne la prima donna ad essere giustiziata con l'iniezione letale nello stato della Virginia, considerata mandante dell'omicidio del marito e del figliastro. Il caso attirò il dibattito sulla pena capitale a motivo del sesso della Lewis e delle perplessità sulla sua capacità d'intendere e volere. In Virginia l'ultima esecuzione di una donna risale al 1912. La Lewis, secondo numerosi pareri, era ritardata mentale e sofferente di disturbo dipendente di personalità, con un quoziente d'intelligenza di circa 70, inferiore al minimo livello normale (80 punti); i suoi complici, condannati all'ergastolo come esecutori materiali, hanno ammesso di averla plagiata e convinta al delitto, approfittando della debolezza mentale della donna, per ottenere loro stessi i soldi dell'assicurazione sulla vita delle vittime, di cui la Lewis era beneficiaria.

Contesto
Teresa Wilson crebbe in povertà a Danville in Virginia; entrambi i suoi genitori lavoravano in un opificio tessile. Teresa, durante la sua giovinezza, fece parte del coro della chiesa della sua città. Abbandonò la scuola e la casa all'età di 16 anni per sposare un uomo incontrato appunto in chiesa; la coppia ebbe una figlia, Christie Lynn Bean, Sua suocera, Marie Bean, la descrisse come "ingiusta".
Teresa Wilson Bean, nella primavera del 2000, trovò lavoro nell'opificio tessile di Dan River, dove incontrò il supervisore Julian Clifton Lewis, rimasto da poco vedovo con tre figli a carico: Jason, Charles, e Kathy. Teresa, nel giugno 2000 si trasferì a casa di Julian e i due si sposarono poco tempo dopo. Nel dicembre 2001, il figlio maggiore di Julian, Jason Clifton Lewis, rimase ucciso in un incidente automobilistico; la famiglia ottenne  dollari dall'assicurazione. Julian si servì del denaro per acquistare una tenuta di cinque acri. Nell'agosto 2002 suo figlio minore Charles ottenne  dollari dall'assicurazione dell'esercito americano e designò Julian come primo beneficiario e Teresa come secondo beneficiario.

La vicenda
Disabile mentale, Lewis è stata condannata alla pena capitale per omicidio di primo grado, in quanto mandante dell'uccisione del marito Julian Clifton Lewis e del figliastro Charles Lewis, compiuto materialmente da due complici la notte del 30 ottobre 2002 nella casa di Lewis nella Contea di Pittsylvania.

Il movente della Lewis sarebbe stato quello di ottenere il risarcimento dell'assicurazione stipulata sulla vita del marito.

I due esecutori materiali, Matthew Jessee Shallenberger, allora ventunenne e il suo amico Rodney Lamont Fuller, allora diciannovenne, sono stati invece condannati all'ergastolo. Shallenberger si è successivamente suicidato in carcere, dopo il primo processo nel 2006 e l'aver affermato d'aver lui e il suo complice plagiato la donna per compiere l'omicidio.

Il quoziente intellettivo della Lewis è risultato essere inferiore ai 70 punti, poco sopra il limite di legge stabilito per la non procedibilità con pena di morte.

L'esecuzione della condanna

Alla Lewis fu garantito l'ultimo pasto che consisteva in due petti di pollo fritti, piselli con burro, un Dr Pepper e torta Sacher per dessert. La Lewis si appellò alla sua figliastra Kathy Lewis Clifton, che fu testimone della sua esecuzione, per scusarsi per l'assassinio del padre.

Il 23 settembre 2010 alle 21:00 presso il Greensville Correctional Center di Jarratt in Virginia la Lewis è stata la prima donna ad essere giustiziata in Virginia dal 1912. È stato anche il primo soggetto a cui è stato applicato il metodo dell'iniezione letale: per i precedenti condannati era sempre stata utilizzata la sedia elettrica.

Il 17 settembre 2010 il governatore della Virginia Bob McDonnell ha deciso di non concedere la grazia, affermando che:

È stato anche inoltrato un appello alla Corte Suprema degli Stati Uniti per ottenere l'annullamento della pena, ma esso è stato respinto il 21 settembre 2010.

Dibattito internazionale
La condanna a morte di Lewis ha provocato dibattiti in tutto il mondo riguardo sia il particolare caso specifico, sia la pena di morte in generale. È stato inoltre preso come parallelo il caso dell'iraniana Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, condannata alla lapidazione per motivo analogo. Il presidente dell'Iran, Mahmud Ahmadinejad, ha accusato gli USA di ipocrisia, per il fatto di protestare per l'esecuzione di una donna sana di mente, e mettere a morte una ritardata mentale.

La disabilità mentale di Lewis è stato altro motivo di discussione, poiché diversamente dalla prassi non è stata valutata come attenuante.

Amnesty International, già contraria alla pena di morte, ha manifestato la più decisa opposizione.

I'm learning OpenViBE and I wanted to do a motor-imagery scenario with my own visualization. I took a "motor-imagery-bci-3-online.xml" scenario from: http://openvibe.inria.fr/motor-imagery-bci/ but instaed of "Graz visualization" at the end I've connected "Simple DSP" with "Analog VRPN Server" (print screen in the attachment).
and it displays data from "Sinus oscillator". Could you tell me how can I read the data (structure) that comes to my app?
does the tutorial work as expected? If so, you should be similarly able to read the raw data from analog.channel array, as in the code snippet.
I need to resume this topic. After succeed with "acquisition client" (generic oscillator) I wanted to test it with some real signal. I have to this this scenarion before connecting with eeg device. I've replaced "acquisition client" with "csv reader" but it doesen't work. The "vrpn_analog_callback" function is not executed.
I attach sample of my csv file a print screen of my current secenario.
Try adding 'signal display' and/or 'EBML spy' to various points of the processing chain to see if valid data is coming out. For example, the CSV reader is very picky about its input format and may not be outputting anything.
Thanks for the hint! I've found that when I use "CSV file reader" nothing comes out of "time based epoching" box. Do you have any idea why? Maybe there's something wrong with my csv file format. Are there any requirements about it? I've read those boxes documentation but I haven't found anything helpful there.


The first Bushey Hall was a fine house built by Thomas, Earl of Salisbury in 1428. It was pulled down around the time of the construction of the second Bushey Hall.
After the Earl of Salisbury, the house and estate passed through various unknown people for the next 270 years until it came into the possession of Sir George Walker. On his death it passed to Sir Robert Marsham, bart., who, in 1701, sold the estate to Thomas Ewer. Again, the estate vanishes into obscurity until it came into the ownership of Edward Marjoribanks - a local landowner since at least 1839 - who decided to build a new house on another site in the estate. The first Bushey Hall was probably demolished around the time of the construction of the second Bushey Hall in 1865 - though there are some suggestions it was demolished in the first half of the 19th century.

Intrigued by its presentation, the Achari Paneer (鲜辣芝士沙拉), a type home-made Indian Cheese, possesses a rather similar texture to Feta Cheese, but mild in cheesy flavor. The intricate and quirky combination between Curry Powder and Cheese was somewhat playful and exotic that will not be easily accepted. You will either like it or go against it. Unfortunately, I belong to the latter group.
Hitting the top notch was this delightful dish- Deep Fried Pakoras (香酥炸蔬菜), albeit slightly oilier to my liking, the Pakoras were being deep fried till perfection, crisp and crunchy; good on its own but even better with the addition of Madras Curry Mayo, which gives a boost to the rather straight forward Indian snack.
The Soup Mulligatawny (印度香料汤) was a little less successful, I was impressed with Chef's creative idea of adding a playful element to the soup- Rice, with a touch of Green Apple; giving the soup a more layered dimension. However, I could not agree with a soup which possesses a quite similar flavor and taste as Curry; as though I was drinking Curry as Soup. I thought the soup was just a mediocre.
Chicken Tikka Masala (马沙拉香浓鸡), Chicken marinated with Indian herbs, was being deep fried till golden brown; the chicken managed to lock the moisture within, however, the flavors from the herbs do not seem to be able to infuse within. The unique fragrance of the herbs were too mild to be tasted, probably they should marinate the chicken for a longer period of time. I was not impressed by the dish.
Another dish that deserves the spotlight will be this dish- Goan Fish Curry (印度传统咖哩鱼), the Curry was robust in flavors while the fish was cooked till perfection, pleasingly firm but not hard to the bite. One could easily gobble a plate of steaming hot rice with a dribble of their Curry. Its definitely a dish worth to look forward to for this themed buffet.
The dish- Sindhi Kadhi (咖哩蔬菜锅) which mainly consists of Chick Peas, Potatoes and Carrots, barely registered any significant taste. The Curry was slightly too watery and diluted to my liking, I would personally prefer a stronger Curry flavor, also, I do hope the Chef could possibly come out with something unexpected to the otherwise unsurprising flavor.
Another note-worthy dish will be this Murgh Aloo Masala (香浓马铃薯) featuring mainly Potatoes and Cauliflower. Potatoes are known as Aloo in Tamil while Gobi refers to Cauliflower. The vegetables were adequately seasoned with flavors, while maintaining the standard crunch of the Cauliflower. It was not out-of-the-world-good but it does score a standard-satisfactory mark.
The well-executed Lamb Briyani (羊肉焖饭) was able to resonate among the guests. Backed by expertise, Chef Khazali was able to infuse a strong dose of spices to the Briyani Rice with the melange herbs and spices. It's unique savory flavor struck my palates, with the perfect texture, it goes well with any types of the curries available. Chunks of Lamb were hidden within, however, the gamy smell of the lamb was there and it might be unappealing for some. Chicken Briyani is also available and will be rotated tentatively.
How can one misses Mango Lassi (芒果拉昔) out when it comes to Indian cuisine? Swez Brasserie's Manga Lassi was good, albeit not mind-blowing; it was a very refreshing end and respite from sheer sinful indulgence. With a hint of sourness, the well-chilled Mango Lassi was topped with some fresh Mangoes; the lovely combination exudes harmonious flavors that should not be missed by Mango lovers.
I was looking forward to try the Gulap Jamun (玖瑰黄金球), a dessert made of flour and Cinnamon, being deep fried till golden brown and soaked in Sugar Syrup. Unfortunately, the deceiving little balls were way too sweet for my palates. The Cinnamon flavor was rather mild or were my taste buds being masked by the cloying sweetness. I could not even finish the dessert off.
All these wonderful dishes were carefully prepared by Chef Bakri (Head Chef of Malay Kitchen of Eastin Hotel Penang), Chef Khazali (Chef De Partie of Eastin Hotel Penang) and Chef Buvanes (Pastry Chef of Eastin Hotel Penang).
Overall, there were some hits and misses here and there, some refinements need to be made for certain dishes, I was expecting some dishes to be fiery hot to satiate my cravings for curries but most of them were far from expectations. Nevertheless, it's going to be a very good theme for Indian food lovers, particularly those who enjoy their foods heavily infused with the delightful flavors of herbs and spices.

What are saltine crackers, and are they in the UK?
Cooking Basics / By Andy / December 21, 2021 December 19, 2021
What are saltine crackers?
Why Use them?
Why don't we have them in the UK?
Substitutes to them in the UK
Ritz crackers
Cream crackers:
Table water cracker
Saltine crackers are light, rough-textured, a little bit salty and crispy that is assumed to be a pantry staple. These dry crackers come in various sizes and shapes, but the usual one is a small square that you see everywhere.
This may not be surprising that these evenly baked crispy crackers are one of the best types of crackers that sell more than any other type of crackers. Their crispy texture makes them unique and widely enjoyed all over the world.
They can be eaten with butter, cheese or other spread to boost their taste. These baked white crackers are served with stew, soups or chilli. If you are in the UK and want to learn about the UK equivalent of saltine crackers or anything related to it, read on.
Saltine crackers are thin, dry and crispy crackers that feature sprinkled salt. They are also referred to as soda crackers. The flavour of these classic crackers come from simple ingredients i.e. yeast, baking soda, water, seasonings and white flour. Saltine crackers may be unleavened too because they are also made from white, seasonings and water.
Some varieties of this cracker have crystals of coarse salt or even sea salt sprinkled on top. However, most varieties have only perforations on top. Its traditional version comes with salt sprinkled on the top and hence the name, saltine.
They feature docking holes that spread throughout its surface. These holes enable the cracker to be baked evenly to get a flat, thin and crispy texture. These holes also help escape the gasses so that the crackers are baked properly. They also prevent it from pillowing during the baking process. They are usually square in shape and have a mild to bland taste. Saltines are ideal for noshing and can be served with stews, pimento cheese, and soups.
These bland-flavoured crackers add a crispy texture to whatever's in your bowl. They can also be used as a baked casseroles topping by crumbling them and mixing them with butter.
The originated country of saltine crackers is America, where it is the go-to food for the preggers to calm morning sickness. But in reality, they are more than a hungover or sick food. Used as a light snack, they are one of the simple pleasures of life. Whether you are under the weather or finding an ideal companion for a block of cheese, these salty and flaky crackers are the best option.
Saltines are widely acknowledged for relieving nausea and settling an upset stomach because they can pass through the stomach easily. They help to stop nausea as they soak up the acid from your empty stomach that causes irritation. They don't smell, and their saltiness helps you relieve this condition. Saltines have sprinkled salt on top that help replace lost electrolytes and inhibit acid from being released in your stomach.
These soda crackers also act as a star ingredient as you can use them to give heft to your meatballs or bind crab cakes. Even you can take your cheese and baked mac to new heights with saltine crumbs when toasted with a knob of butter.
According to a consumer poll report, a box of saltine crackers is something that everyone has tucked away in the kitchen in the USA. However, in the UK, they are not as readily available as in the USA because they are not a snacking thing in the United Kingdom.
So what are saltine crackers called in the UK?
Brits' snacking habits are different from Americans, and they tend to eat potato chips more to enjoy something crispy. Similarly, popcorn is not as popular in the UK as it is in America. So you can say that the UK equivalent of saltine crackers are cream crackers that are available in local grocery stores across the UK. Cream crackers are plain crackers that can be a substitute for saltine crackers, but they are less salty and denser, unlike saltine crackers. If you are a fan of saltines, you can find them on Amazon or the American section of Tesco.
Saltine crackers are the best crackers ever, but some people might not get this salty treat. It is probably due to the product that is not available in their country or area.
Especially if you are in the UK, chances are you may not find them. But don't fret; there are a lot of substitutes that can be used instead of these crispy crackers.
Ritz crackers are simply irresistible due to their flaky texture and buttery taste, making them ideal for any savoury snacking situation. Unlike square saltine crackers, they are circular in shape. They are one-sided salted crackers that are crunchy. Ritz comes in a variety of flavours like garlic butter, the hint of salt and others.
Cream crackers are a good substitute to saltine crackers because they look somewhat similar to them. These crackers are dry and square-shaped crunchy biscuits. They are a little bigger in size but a bit thicker than saltine. They are not salty and less crispy due to their thickness. Cream crackers are mild in flavour and made with yeast and white flour. People love to eat them with butter and cheese. They are also served with savoury toppings.
Table water crackers are crispy, thin and dry crackers that are too much popular in the UK. They are made from water, white flour, and little or no salt. They have bland flavour and can be a great accompaniment for cheesy and meaty toppings. You can find them in gourmet food stores.
Oyster crackers are also a promising candidate for the substitute to saltine crackers because they both share similar flavours. However, they contain less salt, unlike saltines. They also feature docking holes. Oysters can be bland or a little bit buttery in taste. You can serve them with soups.
As you know, saltines are not commonly used in the UK, but if you want to add a satisfying crunch to your salads or soups, you can try them in big Tesco stores. Saltine crackers UK Tesco can be found in the US section of Tesco. You can also get them from Amazon UK or Asian/ smaller middle eastern stores. Furthermore, saltines are also available in various online stores like American sweets, Partridges Melbury and Appleton.
