The evening after their first date Roy had to reschedule, due to a late running budget meeting. The evening after that, Ed had to cancel due to clean-up after a slight lab accident-no injuries, but some of the equipment was never going to be the same. Ed and Roy both had previous engagements for Friday-a family dinner and a work related social function, respectively.
Saturday evening, they finally both found themselves free for the proposed evening of take-out, chess, and possible making out.
That morning Roy slept in, as was his custom Saturdays. Then he made a pot of coffee and read the paper cover to cover. After finishing his morning, or technically afternoon, rituals, he began preparing his apartment for Ed's arrival. Twice weekly visits from his cleaning lady kept the place spotless, but a few recently acquired rare alchemy texts needed to be put up, preferably on a high shelf where Ed wouldn't see them. Spending an evening watching Ed read was not Roy's idea of fun.
Normally, with a date coming over, Roy would have gotten fresh flowers for the mantel and perhaps lit a few candles, but in view of Ed's nap at the ballet he decided to give the romantic atmosphere a pass.
Apartment ready, Roy retreated to the bathroom to see to his personal appearance. Two hours later-after a nap in the tub-he emerged from his bedroom neatly dressed in black slacks, crisp navy button down, and black loafers.
A few minutes later the distinctive sound of metal knuckles rapping on his front door sounded in Roy's apartment. Roy opened the door and Ed rushed past to deposit the three take-out bags he was carrying on the coffee table-before he dropped something.
Roy closed the door behind Ed and the two of them s. Roy in something other than a uniform was a rare sight. Ed's appearance-not so rare.
Ed was wearing baggy cargo pants of an indeterminate faded color, possibly something greenish, with frayed hems from where they dragged the ground, scuffed black boots, his favorite gray sweater with what looked like dirt smeared on one sleeve, and white gloves with even more stains. Even Ed's pony-tail looked a little worse for wear, more strands than usual having fallen out.
The silence having carried on too long to suit Ed, he said, "I brought Xingan," as if that weren't obvious from the appetizing smells wafting from the bags.
"I like Xingan," Roy replied, still staring at Ed.
Ed suffered Roy's scrutiny for a more few seconds, then said irritably, "What?"
"If this was a bad time for you, you could have rescheduled for another night," Roy offered tactfully.
"Huh?" Ed asked, absently pushing a few strands of hair behind his ear.
"If you were running late at your lab and called to postpone dinner for an hour or so to give you time to run home and change, I wouldn't have objected," Roy elaborated.
"Are you trying to say something about the way I'm dressed?" Ed demanded belligerently.
"No, never mind, forget I said anything," Roy began to drop the subject. Then giving in to temptation he added, "I momentarily forgot that I was dating an uncouth child, totally ignorant of the way civilized people dressed for social engagements."
"If I'm an uncouth child, doesn't that make you a pervy child fancier?" was Ed's snide rejoinder. Then motioning at the bags he'd just set down he added, "Wanna eat this here or in the kitchen?"
"Whichever," Roy replied. Neither choice was ideal. The kitchen was tiny and really too cramped for more than one person. The coffee table was at knee level if you didn't sit on the floor, and floor sitting was something Roy felt a few years too old to do. It was a question of dignity, not creaky joints-he wasn't that old. He'd once had a folding table specifically for the purpose of dinner dates at home, but it'd been left behind in the basement of his old building when he'd moved two years previous.
"Here's good," Ed said, unpacking the bags.
"I'll get you a fork," Roy offered.
"Don't bother," Ed stopped him, "I'll just use chopsticks."
"I thought you didn't like chopsticks?" asked Roy, remembering that Ed requested a fork the handful of times they had Xingan food for lunch.
Ed shrugged and said, "I just don't like using them in public."
"Afraid you're going to drop something and embarrass yourself?" Roy speculated.
"I don't drop stuff," Ed insisted. "The wood snags my gloves. When I take off my gloves in public, everyone stares at my hand," Ed explained matter of factly.
"Ice water?" Roy asked, before going to the kitchen to get drinks.
"Uh huh," Ed agreed, smiling in recognition of Roy's remembering that he preferred water over wine or any kind of flavored drink when eating spicy foods.
Roy briefly considered getting plates while he was there but decided against it. They'd eat their take-out from the cardboard cartons it came in-just as God intended. Many aspects of fine dining Roy whole-heartedly embraced. The female urge to put everything on a plate, however, never made any sense to him. It was just something more to wash.
A few seconds later they sat down to eat, Roy on the couch and Ed sprawled on the floor on the opposite side of the table. Despite his better judgment telling him not to stare, Roy found himself transfixed by the sight of Ed's metal hand skillfully manipulating chopsticks. The fact of Ed's automail was in no way a shock to him, but Ed always kept it covered. Roy had never actually seen such a marvel of automail engineering up close and personal. The movement of the joints allowed for near perfect replication of the movement of an actual human hand.
"You're staring," Ed pointed out.
"Sorry," Roy said, still staring.
"You've got an automail fetish?" Ed half asked and half accused.
"I do not," Roy insisted, finally tearing his gaze away from Ed's hand to level a glare at Ed's smirking face. "My interest is purely academic," he said defensively. Then, changing the subject, he added, "Do you have to keep implying that I'm some kind of pervert?"
"It depends," Ed replied. "Do you have to keep making cracks about my age and height?"
"I haven't said anything about your height in days," Roy protested.
"I think the gift wrapped step stool you had delivered to my lab three days ago spoke for itself," Ed grumbled, clearly still holding a grudge.
Roy wisely decided not to press the matter. He'd just had his walls painted and that spicy pork Ed liked tended to stain.
"So what's wrong with the way I'm dressed?" Ed asked curiously.
"Nothing at all," Roy said facetiously, "If we were planning an evening of yard work," he added motioning toward Ed's dirt stains with his chopsticks.
"Well excuse me if my experiments need tending everyday, not just Monday through Friday," Ed replied testily. "I don't know what the big deal is, it's just a little dirt. It's not like it's manure."
"Fullmetal," Roy began, then thinking better of his form of address he started again, "Edward, I know this is outside the realm of your personal experience, but, traditionally, when one is dating, even if the date itself is a casual affair, one is supposed to take a certain level of care with personal appearance. It demonstrates respect for your date and that you are at least making an effort to make a good impression."
"Do you practice sounding that pompous and condescending? Or does it come naturally?" Ed asked.
Despairing of Ed ever becoming civilized, Roy simply answered, "It's a gift."
They ate in silence for a few moments. Then Ed offered, "I still don't get it, but I guess it wouldn't kill me to iron a shirt," one side of his mouth quirking up into a slightly rueful grin.
"That would be greatly appreciated," Roy said, giving Ed a tentative smile. Edward making any kind of concession, even for a potential lover, was somewhat surprising. Great compromiser Ed was not. It was just another thing that served to illustrate how Ed had gone from boy to man in the years he was gone, and it made Roy wonder about the things that happened during that time to shape him into the man he'd become. "I'd also suggest ditching the sweater," Roy suggested.
"The dirt'll wash out," Ed protested.
"It's not so much the dirt as it is the sweater," Roy insisted. "Among other things, one arm's longer than the other."
"Really?"  Seeing that the left sleeve was in fact shorter than the right, he said without a hint of sarcasm, "I never noticed." Then putting the matter aside, Ed shrugged, said, "Not bad for a first try though," and ate another bite of spicy pork.
"First try at what?" Roy asked.
Ed finished chewing, swallowed, then answered, "Knitting. This was Al's first project. I found it in a trunk when I was helping them move. It used to be too big."
"Your brother knits?" Roy asked. Knitting just wasn't something Roy envisioned an alchemist of Alphonse Elric's caliber taking up-especially not a male alchemist. In Roy's opinion, knitting was both tedious and awfully girly. Why painstakingly knit a sweater when you could draw an array and alchemize one in seconds? Especially when doing it the hard way could call your manhood into question.
"We spent a lot of time on trains," Ed explained, expression clearly showing that his personal reaction to knitting was about what Roy's was. "And he used to not sleep," Ed added. "Al's always been big on keeping busy."
"I assume he's improved over time," Roy commented, mentally stumbling on the image of a giant suit of armor clicking away with a couple knitting needles.
"No one complained about the scarves he made at Christmas," Ed said, referring to the fluffy white mufflers Al made for all their military friends. The scarves were well within winter uniform regulation but were of much better quality than the standard issue. The entire office, including the General, sported Al's creations through most of the rest of that winter and they were once again making their appearance now that the cool fall weather had started to set in.
"I didn't realize those were handmade," Roy said, finding new appreciation for an already appreciated gift. "But, my point is, couldn't you persuade your brother to make you a halfway decent looking sweater, now that he has more experience?" Family loyalty and sentimental value were all very well and good-but that didn't mean Ed had to go around looking like a homeless person.
"He already has," Ed replied. "This one's more comfortable."
Changing the subject, Roy asked after Ed and Al's science project. He got detailed weekly reports, but the unofficial version was usually much more entertaining.
In response, Ed launched into a detailed explanation of how a small potting soil explosion could have happened to anyone, how it wasn't really his fault, and not to pay any attention to anything Al might have to say on the matter.
After they finished dinner, Roy cleared away the empty cardboard containers and fetched his chess set from its place on the top shelf of the bookcase. As they were setting up the board at one end of the coffee table, Ed suddenly reached across the board and picked up one of Roy's white pawns. "Are these teeth marks?" Ed asked, holding up the scarred pawn.
Roy nodded, then added, "Mine, according to my mother, although I have no recollection of ever doing such a thing."
"Yours?" Ed prompted, as he placed the pawn back on the board and they started the game.
"One of her favorite stories. Supposedly, as a small child I had a habit of gnawing on random inedible objects," Roy said with heavy skepticism in his tone, as if his mother must have been mistaken because he could have never had such a habit. "One day, when I was about three, my father found me trying to eat his chess set. Not being overly familiar with small children, he interpreted that as a sign of interest in the game rather than simple childish teething-so he decided to try to teach me chess."
"Did he succeed?" Ed asked.
"He must have, although probably not that afternoon," Roy replied. "We played a game every Sunday, right up until the week he died."
"You know," Ed said, eyebrows drawn together in thought, "I never really pictured you with parents. I mean, I know you didn't just hatch from an egg, but you never talk about family or anything like that."
"There's just not that much to say," Roy replied. "My father was an alchemy professor at a civilian university outside East City, taught basic alchemy theory and never really wanted to do anything else. He married late in life, was nearly sixty when I was born, and died from a stroke when I was ten."
"You were close," Ed observed based on Roy's slightly melancholy expression as he relayed the bare facts.
"After a fashion," Roy agreed, after some thought. "I think I was something of a shock to him-that he never planned on having children and found himself sort of at a loss when it came to dealing with a little boy. We didn't really spend much time together, except for our game every Sunday after lunch. But after he died, I missed that-even if it was just an hour or two each week."
"And your mom?" Ed asked.
"Alive and well. She remarried when I was fifteen, the same year I went away to the Academy, a farmer with eleven kids who seems to suit her better than my father ever did. I go visit occasionally, and she's perfectly happy, but after a few hours the pandemonium of all his children, along with their spouses and offspring, starts driving me up a wall," Roy replied.
They played in silence for a few minutes, each devoting full attention to their next move.
"If your mom married a farmer, does that mean you grew up out in a rural area? Or did she just move out there later?" Ed asked.
"Well, it wasn't exactly the boonies, but Marianna was a small town and a good hour's drive from East City," Roy admitted.
"Imagine that, Roy Mustang isn't quite the consummate urbanite he's led everyone to believe he is," Ed said teasingly.
"Although I'd been to East City enough times not to qualify as a slack-jawed country bumpkin when I first went off to school, I was certainly fortunate to have Maes to show me around Central," Roy smiling wistfully as he remembered his friend fondly. "He grew up here and knew all the best places for getting into and out of trouble."
"So you two met in school?" Ed asked.
"We were roommates for three years. I was the only one willing to room with him and his photo collection," Roy said self-depreciatingly.
At Ed's prompting Roy shared a few stories of the two of them sneaking out after curfew and getting into trouble as schoolboys-things Roy hadn't thought about in years. It was nice remembering Maes Hughes before the war and everything that came after.
"Checkmate," Ed said as he placed his knight back on the board.
Roy examined the pieces for a second, then asked, "How do you do that?"
"Genius," Ed replied smugly.
 You're the dive in headlong type. I'm the one who thinks things through," Roy protested. Roy was good at chess. He rarely lost. But, Ed was now nine for twelve in their periodic games.
"That's people and this is chess. Chess pieces aren't deceitful and all sneaky," Ed pointed out.
"Are you implying that I'm just a better liar?" Roy asked, suspicious.
"You said it, not me," Ed replied. "So, another game? Or something else?"
"I think I've had enough chess for the evening," Roy said, leaving the 'something else' to Ed in order to see if he was brazen enough to carry through on his original offer.
Picking up on the challenge implicit in Roy's statement, what small amount of trepidation about the rest of the evening which Ed might have been feeling evaporated in the light of his reflex reaction to any type of thrown gauntlet. Ed grinned his best shark grin, got up from his place on the floor, and circled around the coffee table to the couch. He paused for a second to pull the elastic band from his hair and shove it in his pocket. Then he climbed onto the couch, one knee to each side of Roy, hands braced on Roy's shoulders. Ed smirked slightly at their position. With him kneeling like he was, Ed was a few inches taller than Roy-a unique position for the petite alchemist. Putting aside height concerns for the moment, Ed leaned down and pressed his lips to Roy's.
For a moment Roy simply reveled in the sensation of being thoroughly kissed by Edward Elric. He didn't think he'd ever been with someone who kissed with such a sense of total concentration before. It seemed Ed's, at times, extreme focus spilled over into other areas besides alchemy. Then, never one to sit passively by and let others take the lead, Roy twinned one hand in Ed's long blond locks and wrapped the other arm around Ed's waist. Then he turned slightly and laid back on the couch, taking Ed with him.
Ed squeaked in surprise at suddenly finding himself sprawled on top of Roy. He could feel Roy's lips curve up in a grin against his own.  Ed pulled back slightly so that he could shift up a few inches and place his metal hand just above Roy's shoulder so he could brace his weight on his arm rather than Roy's chest-Ed knew he wasn't exactly a light-weight what with all the metal additions. After getting properly adjusted, he shot Roy an indignant look, then leaned down to nibble on Roy's ear.
Roy growled encouragingly as Ed lightly bit down on the outer edge of his ear. Meanwhile, the hand Roy'd had wrapped around Ed's waist started drifting upward, underneath Ed's sweater, and the other drifted downward from Ed's hair to his butt.
Ed reached up to remove Roy's eye-patch and felt a hand suddenly clamp around his wrist.
"Don't," Roy said, suddenly dead serious.
"It's kind of in my way," Ed pointed out, lightly touching the strap to illustrate how he couldn't even properly run his hand through Roy's hair with the eye-patch in place.
"Just leave it," Roy insisted.
Ed slid to one side so that he was laying on his side between Roy and the back of the couch, head propped on one hand and with his metal hand lightly resting on Roy's chest. "Why?" Ed questioned just as seriously as Roy issued his command. "You don't think I'm going to be scared off by a few scars, do you?" he asked almost gently.
Roy was silent for a few moments. Not looking at Ed, but rather at Ed's automail hand, Roy admitted, "No, I don't suppose you would be."
"But?" Ed prompted.
"You know, the injury didn't really curtail my romantic prospects, at least not to start with," Roy said, backhandedly admitting that he didn't stop dating just because he was busy. "A lot of women thought the patch made me look rakish, like a pirate. But, after they saw the truth... well, they were all very nice about it, but being pitied isn't exactly a welcome feeling," Roy explained.
"Don't be a jackass," Ed easily dismissed Roy's concern. "Like I'd ever pity you. Lost one eye, big deal. It's not like there's something wrong with the one you've still got," Ed added, flexing his metal hand.
"Maybe I am being a jackass," Roy admitted ruefully. "I know you're not someone's secretary. But... not yet?" he asked for more time before being forced to display his personal insecurities.
"We did say we were going to take it slow," Ed said with a shrug. Then looking over at the clock next to the fire place and noticing that it was nearly midnight, he added, "I've got to be in the lab to turn on the heat lamps at six tomorrow. I should probably go home and get some sleep."
"You probably should," Roy agreed reluctantly. On one hand, if he wasn't ready to take off his eye-patch he could understand Ed being reluctant to take things any further. On the other hand, it was an eye-patch, not a cod-piece, that he was refusing to remove, and teasing himself with a little necking and stopping there was something he hadn't made a regular practice of since he was a teenager.
Ed gave Roy a quick peck, slightly to one side of his mouth, in farewell. Climbed over Roy and made toward the door. Just past the coffee table, Ed stopped and turned back toward the couch. "Any plans for tomorrow?"
"My schedule is wide open," Roy answered quickly, thinking that perhaps with a few more hours to work on it Ed could be persuaded to work around the eye-patch.
"Good, you can help me and Al clean up. There's still potting soil all over everything. Come by around noon, bring lunch," Ed ordered, then quickly exited the apartment before Roy could come up with an excuse.
"Brat," Roy muttered to himself. Then he grinned at the prospect of Ed using his step-ladder to clean the high shelves tomorrow.

With that said, there are some guidelines when using this chemical to clean surfaces. Here’s what you need to know about using bleach to kill germo David Nazarian, MD, a board-certified primary care physician at Concierge MD.
“You can use bleach as a surface disinfectant to destroy the protein structure of organisms such as viruses and bacteria,” says Nazarian.
This is because bleach can effectively eliminate pathogens that live on surfaces and can be transferred by hand to your mouth or nose and gain access to your system.
For example, influenza can live on surfaces for 24 to 48 hours and COVID-19 can survive for up to 72 hours, depending on the surface, says Nazarian.

To sanitize fabric with bleach, add bleach to the wash cycle, then dry on high heat. This is effective for whites. As to the amount of bleach, the Clorox website recommends 3/4 cup of bleach for a regular size load. If the load is extra-large or heavily soiled, add an extra 1 1/4 cup.

Out of all of the new great tv shows out there, I admit that I still DVR and watch The Bachelor. Every season they taunt you by saying it will be “” and it works every time. How many of these couples actually end up together? Let’s just say the odds are not very good. There is always some drama and usually it’s because people are arguing over who “is in it for the right reasons.” Have you ever counted how many times they say that phrase each episode?
Some of the moments on the show are so embarassing that you actually feel bad for the people. You would think they might filter their emotions a bit knowing that the world could be watching. The producers must be that good to get them talking and open up. And they always edit just right to make out someone to be the villan of the house, and then there’s always another person who has a girlfriend/boyfriend back home.
I am definitely in it to see who will find true love and be the recipient of the final rose. Will you be watching this season?

Quasar Bio-Tech’s red light therapy devices emit red light at four wavelengths using 65 milliwatts and four to eight joules of light, which is more light energy than any other skin care tool. VIDEO The depth of the wavelengths allows […]
Blue light works as a vasoconstrictor, and is a proven method to treat mild-to-moderate inflammatory and hormonal acne.Acne is caused by a surplus of sebum produced by the sebaceous glands. When there is too much sebum, the p. acnes bacteria flourishes, leading to acne breakouts. Blue light therapy works by killing acne-causing bacteria in its […]

Science of Red Light
Red light therapy initiates a complex series of cascading bio-chemical and physiological events. The cells in the body react to the light energy by increasing their level of activity, releasing nitric oxide, and stimulating blood flow and circulation. Through this process, new collagen is created, healing aging skin.Collagen is the primary building block of the […]

What length hyd top link are you using on your BX?
Harley....glad to see that you have joined us. Now there are 3 BX owners, possibly we should start our own BX forum?What you say Doc?
Junkman, thanks for telling me about this new forum. A BX forum sounds good to me. I shorten the stock top link all the way (14") with the box blade at times, and for the other attachments it is normally between 14-1/2" to 15" that is why I'm looking for a 14" closed cyl. or even a 13-1/2" to really take advantage of having the hyd top link, and I really like the check valves. I only have 4 or 5 attachments I hook to it, maybe I would be better off to relocate the top attachment holes on them and stay with a standard cylinder?


The 196-page proposal released Monday outlines the state's plan to implement a public health insurance option designed by the state but administered by private insurers by January 2022.
Private insurers under the proposal would determine the structure of premiums and deductibles, but would have to meet a set of requirements. For example,.
In addition, the plans would havs, and many services would have to be covered pre-deductible, including behavioral, preventive, and primary care. Private insurers also would have to apply all rebates received on prescription drugs to reduce the prices of state option health plans.
Private insurers administering the state option health plans would contract with providers, but state officials would set provider payment rates. Under the proposal, the state would set reimbursement rates at 175% to 225% of Medicare's charges for the same services. Colorado providers on average currently charge private insured patients 269% of Medicare's charges, according to a report from RAND.
State officials said the lower payment rates would drive the majority of the state option's savings. For instance, state officials estimated the lower payment rates would save state residents at least 9% to 18% on their monthly premiums compared with individual market rates. State officials predict the lower monthly premiums will reduce the government's spending on subsidies for individuals to purchase health plans on the exchange market, according to the Colorado Sun.
Colorado's proposal would increase the number of enrollees on the individual market by an estimated 4ums/7).

“I started the car for you,” I said. “To take the chill off.”
“Thanks,” she mumbled. “Because there’s nothing as uncomfortable as a car when the nighttime temp falls into the mid-50s.”
“And think about what I said last night. I’m serious. I know what I’m talking about.”
“Don’t be a smart ass. I mean this column. Did you publish this?”
“Who the hell is Dan Uggla?” she demanded. “What is this? Is your adventure now that you’re going to become a baseball fan? I know you’ve talked about becoming a weatherman or a professional fisherman or a cowboy, and I supported all those dreams, even the ones I laughed out loud at. But a baseball fan? What kind of adventure is that?”
“Well, you know,” I stumbled. “Dan is a former student of mine…”
“You think he is,” she interrupted.
“Yeah, I think he is. And I just thought it might be interesting to see how our fortunes, you know, coincide.”
She waved her hands in front of her face as if my arguments were gnats. Then she froze, with her fingers on her temples. I hate when she does that, because, even though she has denied ever thinking this, it means she has heard my statements and found them altogether ridiculous.
“I hear you, but this is altogether ridiculous,” she said.
“First, there is nothing in common between you and a professional baseball player. Nothing. Think about that word for a moment. It’s two words in one: no and thing. You have no thing in common.”
“Not true,” I said. “We had room 101 in 1993 and 1994, Or 1994 and 1995, I’m not sure which. Maybe it was 1992 and 1993. I’m thinking there might be some karma here, you know, in a parallel universe sort of way. Please stop waving your hands.”
“OK, OK. Let mIt has to be sufficiently vague, with a few incorrectly used scientific terms. If I get this, you think that your fortunes and Dan Uggla’s are tied together somehow. Right?”
“Right,” and I sighed in relief. “I was afraid you wouldn’t understand.”
“You believe that as his fortunes rise, so will yours, because the two of you are connected by the mystical power of room 101, which you shared in 1992/93/94/95. Somewhere in there. Am I correct so far?”
“But dear,” she said, and she took my hands in hers, “You neglected the quantum entanglements. If your fortunes can rise as his do, isn’t the inverse just as likely? Couldn’t your bad luck flow to him?”
“I think you know what I’m saying. You have lost your job. You are soon to be unemployed. What if your outrageous fortunes bend back toward your former student? Maybe it’s already happened. Where did you find his batting average?”
“On the Florida Marlins website,” I said. “Look, he was hitting .333. He was tied for the lead in home runs.”
“But that was two weeks ago,” she said. “What is his batting average now?”
It only took a moment to find it, and as I stared at the stat, I felt completely deflated.
“Oh no,” I murmured. “Look, his average is down to .281. Two players have passed him for the homerun lead.”
“We’ll call this the Hargrove Effect,” she said. “But there’s no reason to think it will stop here. Suppose Dan suffers some exotic baseball injury such as Second Baseman Elbow or Non-Turf Toe? Suppose he goes into a slump? What if he loses his ability to hit the long ball? What if, and it’s almost too awful to consider, what if he gets traded to the Pirates?”
“No! No! Stop it!” I screamed. “It’s too terrible.”
“Listen,” she added. “I’m sure young Dan has a fan club with thousands of adoring youngsters watching his every move. And it’s all good and well that he should. There are a thousand people who would love nothing better than to latch onto a professional athlete’s fame and feed off it like leeches, people who didn’t have to do any of the work he did to earn his life. Don’t be one of them. He has earned the right to be left alone. It’s his life. It’s not yours. Has he ever contacted you? Does he even remember you? Dan Uggla is part of a fellowship of professional baseball players, a fellowship that numbers perhaps a few hundred. You are going to be unemployed and middle aged. Your club isn’t as glamorous, but it has a lot more members. That’s who you’re writing for.”
And she’s right. She’s right. I closed the Marlins page and breathed a prayer for young Dan, a prayer that his fortunes don’t follow mine. So now I sit in front of the computer, and contemplate how far I have fallen. I still feel kind of sick, but I feel something else. Surrounded by a brown paper stadium constructed with the bricks of my old life, I almost hear a chant go up, a cheer, and I look at my hands and my aging arms, and I wonder if it‘s worth the risk of striking out. I’ve done stupid things before. It’s sort of a hobby of mine, and I’m getting pretty good at it. This might be the time to do something really stupid, astoundingly stupid. I think it might still be in me, to swing for the fences one more time.
I think, if he was here, it’s what Dan would do.

If you get a bad pitch, well… take a bad-ass stance and swing, batter!
Wow. Thanks, Terry.
The strange part? I wrote this on Thursday. Dan hit two home runs last night. Damn quantum entanglements!
K Muldoon says:
More than a few years ago I had a chance to speak with Mickey Mantel, one on one….and he was very specific…if you don’t swing at the ball…you will not get hits…..if you swing a lot, you will have a lot of strike outs, if you continue to swing at the ball….you eventually become good at it…Dan Uggla and you will both be fine if you keep your eye on the ball….and keep swinging.
Dan Uggla’s fielding and average are terrible and have been long before you lost your job. If you two are tied together, follow his HR total in terms of HR hit by 2B. He’s won’t be the best (probably Chase Utley), but he could be in the top 5 on a good year, which means it’ll be a good year for you, too.


Journalist, communications consultant, north shore resident and author, Suzanne Daniel will discuss her debut novel Allegra in Three Parts, in conversation with WAIG member Maria Zannetides. The book’s themes range from loss, grief, love and recovery, intergenerational relationships, workers’ rights, feminism, crisis housing, friendship, racism, and the role of men at a time a huge social change. It’s a lot to pack into the story of a girl, Allegra, approaching her teenage years during the second-wave women’s movement of the 1970s, and the adults in her life who love her a great deal but don’t get along with each other. And while it’s a work of fiction, Allegra In Three Parts is deeply researched, drawing from the history of the time and ultimately delivering a message of hope.

Keywords: Cloud Computing, cloud storage and cloud security.
In Recent time, cloud computing drastically change the view of IT infrastructure such as hard-disk, RAM, Software and storage etc. and also perception of everyone. Amazon ,IBM, Google’s Application, Microsoft Azure etc., are the provider of cloud service Provider that provide the developing Applications for client in cloud condition. Furthermore, to get to them from anyplace, any time. Cloud computing includes elements from parallel computing, utility computing, Fog Computing and grid computing and into an innovative deployment architecture in the virtual environment. The main purpose of this paper is identify the issue of cloud data storage and its solution.
In addition to, with data storage security issues, the moving data over networks is also included by cloud service. The level of network security is required for it and file transfer encryption. The service user and the service provider have responsibility for this. The reliable and trustworthy networks is only chosen by user and use sufficiently secure password and username credentials. The service encryption must be assured by service provider and server-end security for the stored information.
Security Policy and Compliance.
1.3 VIRTUAL MACHINE SECURITY:One of the significant segments of a cloud is Virtualization. It is dynamic for example to past occasions, stopped and restarted could be slipped by, similarly effectively. Guaranteeing that on the equivalent physical machine different instances are running and remote from each other is a major task of virtualization. It can also be readily cloned and easily moved between physical servers. VM collapse makes it difficult to achieve and maintain reliable security by this dynamic nature and potential. Vulnerabilities that are found errors may be unintentionally propagated. Also, to maintain an auditable record is difficult of the security state at any given point of a virtual machine in time. There are two type of virtualization, one of them is full Virtualization and other is Para Virtualization in a cloud computing environment.
Complete hardware architecture of computer is replicated virtually in the full virtualization. However, it is modified so that it can be run parallel in para-virtualization with other operating systems. Abstracts the physical resources is abstracted by VMM (Virtual Machine Monitor) that is a product layer utilized by the various virtual machines. A virtual processor and other virtualized renditions of framework gadgets like I/O gadgets, stockpiling, memory, and so forth are provided by VMM. In all popular VMMs many vulnerability are found that allow avoidance from Virtual machine. It could permit a visitor working framework client to execute code on the host or another visitor working framework by V It is find that vulnerability in VMware’s shared organizers component that awards clients of a visitor framework read and composes access to any piece of the host’s document framework including the framework envelope and other security-touchy records. Weakness in Metasploitable can be broken by clients of a visitor area to execute subjective directions. On host and visitor working frameworks is the other issue is the run of administrator. Current perfect isolation is not offered by VMM. We have taken virtual box of oracle and create A virtual machine of metasploitable and it is easily accessible by root user.
Secure (HTTPS) and Secure Shell (SSH). In a Customaryon proof application organization model, the delicate information of every endeavor keeps on living inside the venture limit and is liable to its physical, legitimate and staff security and access control approaches. Notwithstanding, the undertaking information is put away outside the endeavor limit, at the Service supplier end in distributed computing. In this way, the specialist co-op must embrace extra security checks to guarantee information security and avoid gaps because of gnant representatives. This includes the utilization of solid encryption procedures for information security and fine-grained approval to control access to information, the Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) overseers don’t approach client cases and can’t sign into the Guest OStilize their individual cryptographically solid Secure Shell (SSH) keys to access a host. Every single such access are logged and routinely examined. While the information very still in Simple Storage Service (S3) isn’t scrambled of course, clients can encode their information before it is transferred to Amazon S3, so it isn’t gotten to or messed with by any unapproved party.
To secure information it is better solution to encryption. It is smarter to encode information before putting away information in cloud server. Authorization can be given by information proprietor to specific gathering part with the end goal that information can be effectively gotten to. Data access control is provided by data centric security. To improve the data security over cloud is design data security model that include Data protection can be used as a service for ensuring privacy. Applying encryption on data to avoid access of data from other users. Before uploading data into the cloud the users are recommended to verify whether the data is stored on backup drives and the keywords in files remain unchanged. The hash of the file is calculated before uploading to cloud servers will ensure that the data is not changed. It can be used for data integrity but it is very difficult to maintain it. To combining identity based cryptography and RSA Signature can be provided to check by RSA based data integrity. Both at the physical level and application level to keep apart data from different users and must be clear boundaries that ensure by SaaS. In cloud computing, Dispersed access control design can be utilized for access management.

But change requires action. It requires doing things and doing things differently. It means taking a step in the right direction for their business, and for some photographers this means attending a workshop or signing up for an intensive mentoring session. If this is you, we have TWO mentoring sessions left for this spring!
Our workshop this year is now being planned for this fall and we can't wait for all thats being planned for it!It will take place at an awesome venue in Trumbull CT!We are excited to share the details about it next month. Please CONTACT US HERE ibe contacted first when the workshop details are announced!


OK, I also got a payment from Dealsncash.com in December for $31.14 and I just requested a check from SendEarnings for almost $30 (well you have to earn over $30 to request a check but they do charge you a check processing fee which took it down to $27 and change).

Class of 2016-2 </s> Cabinet d'avocats
CANADIAN BAR REVIEW 1974, VOL LII, p. 128
"Some will say it is our duty to follow the House of Lords and not to question their decision. We are not to, reason why. Ours is but to do and die."1
The response of the House of Lords was blunt and uncompromising. The Lord Chancellor, speaking with "a studied moderation"4, declared:
T
to accept loyally the decision of the higher tiers.5
The question which continues to beg an answer is, why must the Court of Appeal follow the most recent decision of the House of Lords on any given subject.
The trial judge direbecause the defendants had persisted in their wrongful acts believing the prospects of a best-seller outweighed the possibility of material loss as a result of libeling Captain Broome.
The Court of Appeal held that according to the formulation of the law by the House of Lords, in Rookes v. Barnard,9 punitive damages were available in this case, and that the damage award of £ 40,000 was not excessive. This was sufficient to dispose of the appeal. The Court of Appeal went on to say that Rookes v. Barnard had been decided per in curiam by the House of Lords" and that judges should no longer follow it in instructing juries on punitive damages.11 But it is not the purpose of this comment to assess the merits of the Court of Appeal's comments on the circumstances in which juries should be permitted to assess punitive damages in civil cases.12 Here attention will be case.
The doctrine of stare decisis is normally seen as having two branches. The first is that the highest court is bound by its previous decisions and the second is . Since the Practice Statement of 19,66," the House of Lords no longer considers
itself bound by its own precedents. Therefore, the

If the argument in Glanville Williams' edition of Salmond on Jurisprudence" is correct that the Practice
Stare decisis is not an element of the civil law.
always change its mind. All the more is it not bound by the decisions of other courts, even of higher courts. . . 20
Indeed, in France, a lower court is not bound by the directives of the Cour de cassation which quashed its decision except if the Cour de cassation quashes its decision a second time for the same reasons.21
The situation in Quebec is complicated by the interplay of the common law with the civil law, but the principle that a Quebec court does not feel itself bound by a single decision of a higher court on Quebec law seems secure. Bissonette J., of the Québec Court of Queens Bench, Appeal Side, has summarized the situation in Quebec:
Nor is stare decisis the rule in international law.23 Nor is it the rule before administrative tribunals even in common law jurisdictions.24
The law would be a strange science if it rested solely upon cases .... PbcceBut the system of private property demanded more stability.29 Until the birth of the rationalized system of private property, judges theorized that their function was to declare what the law was, and if a prior case had inaccurately declared the law, then this inaccuracy was open to correction in subsequent cases. In response to Bentham's utilitarian attacks on the courts for "making" laws" judges backed themselves into the position of declaring what the law was, once and for all.31 Since by now the matter of whether courts


Have you ever wondered how a professional car wash or car detailing business is able to make your car shine?
Whether you run a car wash business, or prefer to not take your car to the car wash or an auto detailing business, then take heed of the following car cleaning tips to keep your car clean and looking like new.
Read More: How To Choose Best Subwoofers?
1) Dry Glass Surfaces Thoroughly
2) Don’t Forget To Clean The Windows
3) Shampoo Every Two Weeks
4) Use a Towel or Chamois to Dry
5) Rinse Your Cloth or Sponge Regularly
6) Treat Your Trim Before Applying Polish and Wax
7) Apply Wax With a Power Buffer
8) Check The Surface With a Plastic Bag
10) Use Static Electricity on Carpets
11) Brush The Carpet First
12) Use Compressed Air
13) Use Quality Car Cleaning Products
Even if you just give your car a quick wash, take special care with the windows, to avoid annoying streaks on the inside or outside of the car. To prevent streaks, dry the exterior of the glass in one direction, and the interior in another.
By drying the glass this way, you will know whether the streaks are on the inside or outside, and you can easily wipe away the streak.
Products and grime can build up on the top of the window, which may result in streaks or other unsightly marks.
When you wash your car, wind down the windows a little bit, and get rid of any debris or dirt that may have built up there.
To protect your paint job, wash your car with shampoo every two weeks.
Whether you have a brand new Volkswagen T-Roc or an old hand-me-down family car, a regular car wash will prevent dirt, rust and abrasion on the paintwork.
If you use quality car cleaner, it will help protect the paintwork.
For a quick car wash, use two-in-one shampoo and wax.
Airdrying a car – especially in direct sunlight – will leave water marks which can be very difficult to remove.
Effectively dry your car using a microfibre towel or a chamois, and dry in a figure-eight action. Start at the top of the car and work your way down.
Make sure to rinse your cloth or sponge thoroughly during the car wash process to prevent scratches and swirl marks.
Dirt particles and grime can damage the paintwork, so rinse your washcloth in a separate container before washing the car.
Any black plastic trim on your car will require different care than the rest of the body.
You can treat the trim with a black restoring product, and then wax and polish the metal. Wax and polish can stain plastic, so it is best to treat any plastic first.
If you want similar results as you would get from an auto detailing business, then use a power buffer wisely.
You can use the buffer to apply wax, but don’t remove the wax with the buffer – rather use a clean cloth.
This may seem odd, but before placing a fresh coat of wax on the car, make sure to check the car for dirt without getting any fingerprints on the bodywork.
Put your hands in a plastic bag and run it over the car, feeling for any bumps, and remove these dirt patches before waxing.
9) Stick With Microfibre
Sponges have traditionally been used in car wash businesses, but most have switched over to microfibre cloths which are easy to wash, rinse and dry your car with.
Keep your washcloth and drying cloth separately, and remove any labels to prevent scratching.
Carpets are a nightmare for any car wash as they trap dirt, sand and pet hairs.
Scrubbing the carpets with a vacuum brush is time-consuming, often embeds the dirt even more and may also scuff up the fibres.
Using a latex glove, a balloon or just rubbing your hand on the carpet will generate static electricity, which will pull up any trapped dirt, making it easier to vacuum.
Most car wash businesses will first brush the carpet with a stiff brush to agitate the fibres and loosen dirt.
This will make it easier to vacuum up the bits. Just make sure to keep the brush away from leather seats as it may cause scratches.
Using compressed air in the air vents will loosen dust and moisture which have perhaps been contributing to an old car smell.
By loosening any dirt in the vents, your car will smell fresher and more neutral.
When it comes to a car wash, the best tools and products will deliver the best results.
Top-quality shampoos go a long way and only a few drops will give you the result you want.
Following up your car wash with a long-lasting wax will leave your car looking brand new.
There are no shortcuts when it comes to your car wash process. The best products and taking your time will make a big difference, and leave your car looking like it came straight from the dealership.

This week I’m attending the summer ms medical editors in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. (If you’re interested, you can follow the live tweeting thread at hashtag #sdmjh11.) The Foundation has been t for the past 5+ years.
Since I’m on the road, I’m publishing a series of video clips from a taping done by the hosts of the NIH Medicine in the Media conference two weeks ago at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH.
Part 1, below, is a brief summary of what we’ve found after 5 years of reviewing stories that make claimIn Part 2, on Tuesday, I’ll discuss my optimism for the future of health care journalism, despite some of the troublesome findings reported in Part 1 above.
In Part 3, on Wednesday, I’ll remind journalists of the help that’s available to them in most communities to evaluate evidence and to scrutinize claims.
In Part 4, on Thursday, I’ll explain why stories about “new stuff” in health care are really health care reform stories, even if they’re not framed that way, and how communication of benefits/harms of new interventions is a major health policy issue.
In the final clip, Part 5 on Friday, I’ll give some advice to readers, viewers, consumers, physicians, researchers – anyone who is upset about health care news coverage that is biased, imbalanced or incomplete.

Home / Shop by Goal / Recovery
When people are training hard – whether for a race, a sport, or simply to look and feel better – the area they often neglect is their recovery.  What you eat and drink after a workout will have a profound effect on the benefits you get from your workout, the progress you make.
If you want to make progress, training hard is just one part of the equation.  The other is recovery nutrition.  Workouts tax the muscles – the whole principle of training progress is progressive overload, where you stress the muscles each time you train – and that takes its toll.  Unless you get your recovery nutrition right you will just be spinning your wheels.

Recovery nutrition involves eating the right things at the right time.  There is a window of opportunity after a workout, of between twenty to thirty minutes, when your muscles are highly receptive.  Get the right fuel in during that window and you will maximize your recovery, and thus your progress.
The body’s first need after a workout is for fluids to rehydrate you – it’s therefore no surprise that almost all recovery formulas are drinks or shakes.  But what should be in your drink alongside the fluids?
The other main needs are carbs and protein.  Working muscles use glycogen – it’s the body’s equivalent of unleaded petrol – and after a workout you need to refill the tank.  Sugars like dextrose and maltodextrin are the best carbs for replenishing your muscle glycogen after a workout.  Sucrose, glucose and fructose, which many people eat after a workout, are not nearly as effective.
While many people eat some carbs after their workout, they neglect to include protein.  When you train hard you break down muscle fibers.  If you want them to recover and grow – and this applies even for endurance athletes – you have to give them some protein.  The best, most easily digested form of protein is whey.
Combining these elements in a recovery drink will ensure that you recover quickly and are ready for your next workout.

Raul Lara Naranjo is a Spanish Artist, born in Seville. He developed his love of painting when he briefly took up art at an academy in Spain. Other than this experience as a child, Raul is self-taught. Raul's figurative works are born from images transferred to the canvas using various mediums. He often starts these paintings with design programs on his computer and once the picture is properly modified, he transfers the image onto the canvas. The result is expressive, imaginative and emotive. Raul's paintings have been exhibited in Spain, New York and the UK.
Born in Moron de la Frontera, Seville, Spain. Based in Marbella after a few years of personal growth living in different countries. Although I I´m primarily a self-taught artist. I have loved creating art since I was a child, spending hours scribbling on any paper that was to hand. Nearly all of my painting knowledge is the result of following my interests, passions and curiosity, as well as my willingness to learn. My figurative works are born from images transfer to the canvas using various mediums. I like the idea of starting my paint in the computer with design programs and once the picture is properly modified I transfer the image into the canvas. For the abstracts paints I use big pieces of paper to create the same texture, crumpled paper reliefs of the transfer which bring more personality to my work, then I start painting overusing a glazing technique, employing different materials such as oils, acrylics, pastels and ink.


Saw this on epicfail.com, which one is real or are they both games?
Ha, it's monday. Helps if I post the link.
the one on the left is CG, and pretty sure the one on the right is real. The giveaway is the drivers head. If you've ever hit a set of tight corners in something that holds the road at high speed, you know what I'm talking about. The physics engine can't predict what a persons head will actually do when their are wearing a heavy helmet facing a few G's in the opposite direction they are trying to look.
I thought the one on the right looked like the fake one. The track looks brand new and there's zero wear around the outside of the track compared to the left image.
Look at the car mirrors too, the ones on the left actually show the track, they would be useless to the driver at that angle. while the ones on the right show the car body which is about right for the camera angle.
My thought was about the track too, skid marks make it look more real but there are oil marks and dirt all over. However, the drivers head movement on the right makes me think it's that one. There are no comments on the link and I dont know the source. But wow, I'm ready to go play a racing game now.
there are plenty of good ones, I need to get Forosa for my XB1, was a long time Grand Tourismo player on the playstation till I switched camps with this console. Pretty much anything by CodeMasters is a decent race game.
You can look at the trees on the one on the left and see repeats... where as the one on the right does not have repeats. The right one is real.
I originally though the one on the right was CG, but after watching a couple loops you can tell by the way the driver's hands and head move. Remarkable how similar they are though.
Definitely going with the left one being the fake one.
After watching this way too much, the left side is not real. Around 2/3 seconds there are 2 very dark trees on the right side. A split second before they go off camera, they disappear from the image.
I immediately think that the left one was fake. Mind, I haven't read the comments so I'll go back and read them after I post.
The steering wheel doesn't line up with the turning radius!
The edges are too "perfect" if you know what I mean, everything is either STRAIGHT or CURVED (especially the warning light bar at the top of the steering wheel ... which is also way brighter than it should be, and the color was far too uniform), the edges on the right are much more natural.
The shadows and reflections don't line up right / behave properly all the time on the left one, maybe it's just me but the whole thing looks very "flat" whereas the one on the right looks much more "alive".
The driver's head looks like he's paralyzed in the left-hand one, as if he's not even trying to control his head but it's simply being held in place by an external force, like his suit or an invisible padded restraint. The right hand one, the driver's clearly trying to keep his head still but is being overpowered by the G forces, you can see his helmet wobble as his body tries to correct for the lateral force and stabilizes in the center, where in the left-hand one, the helmet is WAY too steady. There's no overcorrection when he enters the turn, or change when he turns sharper or comes out of it, the way there should be.
TL;DR: The left-hand one looks like a perfect-world with a computer-controlled corpse for a driver using a disconnected steering wheel, which the right-hand one looks like an actual person. I didn't cheat.
:) Now off to see how wrong I was!
EDIT: OK so I wasn't wrong, if the larger community is correct and the left-hand one is the CG!
Noticed it by the wing mirrors, one in the left being the game.
Left one is in game, you can tell by how smooth the wheel control is, while the one on the right has some extreme correction on that turn in.
Man, you guys are on the ball... I'm still having trouble trying to decide between the two.

The recognition that is the most precious to me is becoming a top writer in a certain tag. So far, I’ve received that title in Finance, Business, Investing, Life Lessons, and Self-Improvement.
Yesterday, I’ve received an email that congratulated me for becoming a top writer in Leadership. This was a very nice surprise to me, because I didn’t use that tag often.
When I received the top writer title in Finance, it was a surprise, because that was the first title I received on Medium.
Then I started to target the tags Investing, Business, Life Lessons, and Self-Improvement. I received the title in each of them. I would have been content if I could defend the top writer titles that I already received.
I neither made an effort nor expected to receive the title in another tag. That’s why receiving the title in Leadership was a nice surprise.
I’m grateful for the top writer titles I have received so far. I owe a lot to all my readers who read, clap, and highlight my posts and follow me on Medium.
By the way, you might not see the Leadership tag in my profile, because Medium doesn’t show more than five tags in someone’s profile. If you go to the top writers tab of the Leadership tag, you’ll see me there, hopefully for a long time.
The introduction of this post is not only about me receiving a Medium title. It is also about lessons in leadership. When you think about a leader, you might think about an angry person shouting at a crowd. Unfortunately, this is what many people in top positions think what leadership is.
Shouting angrily at a person or a crowd is not leadership. On the contrary, it’s a guaranteed way to alienate people, push them away from you and your cause, and loose them for good.
Look at how Medium motivates its writers. Medium cheers them up whenever they reach a milestone on their platform. Medium creates all these small milestones to reach out to its writers and to recognize their efforts.
I can guarantee you that without the recognition we receive from Medium, many writers would have given

But domestic partner benefits also count as “imputed income” for employees at tax time and carry a financial penalty that married couples do not suffer. The Supreme Court certainly had a mind toward the various legal benefits of marriage, including insurance matters, in Justice Anthony Kennedy’s decision for the majority.
"The decision may also provide administrative relief to employers who do business both in states that already recognized same-sex marriages and those that did not; further, employers who currentlyand/or opposite-sex partners of their employees may choose to no longer offer such benefits," she said.
Michigan had issued licenses to 323 couples in one day last year, after U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman had foununtil the 6th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals imposed a stay on that decision and later upheld the ban.
The ruling Friday in Obergefell v. Hodges et al reverses that decision, for Michigan and three other states.  in a separate case that the previous unions are valid, but the Supreme Court case was expected to decide whether others could be performed here.
Julian Davis Mortepart of the legal team for the same-sex couples in the Goldsmith case, also said domestic partner plans would diminish in importance after the ruling, but doubted they would be completely obsolete.
“Certainly in the private sector, you would expect there would be less reason to offer those plans, and anxiety that employers might have over that just might outweigh the strong commitment to justice or equity that caused them to adopt the plans in the first place,” he said. “You could imagine some of the employers would have less reason, but not no reason, to continue offering them.”
“The states in some cases could have, and a few were expected to, find that the state did not have to offer recognition under a different ruling,” he said. “But that possibility has completely slipped off the table. This case has totally mooted all of those questions.”
“(And) it’s highly regulated when and how you can make changes to those plan documents, and the specific procedures you have to follow,” he said.
It’s possible that employer inquiries about its spousal coverage options will increase soon, in light of the ruling, Stojic said. A majority of Blue Cross’ more than 3.4 million insured Michigan residents are still covered under group plans that employers purchase, she said.

Though there are no confirmed or suspect cases of Ebola Virus Disease (Ebola) in California, today (Oct. 24) the University of California Office of the President informed the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) that all five UC medical centers are positioned to provide in-patient care for Californians who have confirmed cases of Ebola if necessary.
“All of the UC medical centers specialize in complex care and operate as or staff level one trauma centers. We appreciate their leadership role in willingness to treat Ebola patients,” said Dr. Ron Chapman, director of CDPH and state health officer. “The administration will support these hospitals in meeting this public health need in California. At the same time all hospitals and medical providers need to redouble preparedness efforts to ensure that they can effectively assess Ebola risk in their patients, while ensuring workplace safety.”
“As part of a public university, UC’s medical centers are far along in their preparation activities and are willing to care for confirmed Ebola patients,” said Dr. John Stobo, UC senior vice president for health sciences and services. “Stepping up to a public health crisis is what these medical centers do, and in the past weeks we have been actively readying ourselves for any health eventuality related to Ebola. We are committed to addressing the health needs of this population and the public at large, as well as ensuring the safety of our health care workers. It is our intent that only health care workers who are members of a core designated group or who volunteer to do so will provide care to confirmed Ebola patients.”
The UC medical centers identified today include the Davis, Irvine, Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco facilities. These hospitals will closely coordinate with CDPH and local health officers as they consider taking on such patients. Today’s announcement means that the UC medical centers are positioned to accept patients in California with confirmed cases of Ebola. They are not identified as treatment centers for patients being transported into the United States by the U.S. State Department. Four hospitals in other parts of the country are already established as treatment centers for these repatriated U.S. citizens.
CDPH has been reviewing Ebola preparedness, screening and treatment guidance from the national Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and will ensure that the UC medical centers have the most up-to-date information on how to treat and care for Ebola patients, should confirmed Ebola cases appear in California.
The UC medical centers, like all health care facilities in California, are required to comply with standards set by Cal/OSHA to ensure that appropriate protective equipment, training and other measures are in place to protect worker health and safety while caring for Ebola patients. Cal/OSHA is developing updated guidance and compliance requirements specifically identifying what measures are adequate — and inadequate — to comply with California’s workplace health and safety legal requirement, based on CDC’s recent strengthening of clinical guidance for Ebola treatment. Cal/OSHA will also provide on-site consultation for these medical centers to help them meet the established occupational health and safety standards.
CDPH has also committed to helping the five identified medical centers obtain the necessary personal protective equipment (PPE), should the hospitals have sourcing challenges. CDC recently updated the PPE guidance, aligning them with California’s stronger standards. State officials will also work with these medical centers to ensure that medical waste generated from the treatment of an Ebola patient will be properly handled and disposed.
All hospitals throughout the state are expected to screen, identify and isolate any patients with Ebola risk. Screening questions include:  “Has the patient recently been in one of the three countries with Ebola outbreaks: Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea?”; and “Has the patient been in direct contact with someone known to have Ebola or someone exposed to Ebola?” If further testing of the patient is recommended, the hospital will contact the local health department, which will provide a more detailed epidemiological assessment. If necessary, the local health officer will then coordinate with CDPH and CDC to pursue testing at CDC-approved laboratories. During that time, the patient should remain in isolation until the test results are available. If test results are positive, CDPH will work with the hospital, local health officers and the CDC to transfer the patient as needed.
CDPH remains in contact with hospitals and health care professionals throughout the state to monitor and strengthen medical preparedness and Cal/OSHA will be working with hospitals to provide compliance assistance on required workplace safety standards. Other hospitals will likely be identified as additional priority hospitals for Ebola treatment.
Since the Ebola outbreak began in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone, CDPH has worked with state, federal and local health officials to prepare for potential cases of Ebola in California. In August, CDPH launched an informational website compiling information about the outbreak and preparing California health care providers with guidance and protocols from the CDC. CDPH has developed an interim case report form for reporting suspected cases of Ebola to CDPH and has distributed CDC guidance on specimen collection, transport, testing and submission for patients suspected of having Ebola. Last week, CDPH posted interim guidelines for Ebola medical waste management and recommended that all health care facility environmental services personnel and infection control staff work together to develop facility-specific protocols for safe handling of Ebola related medical waste. CDPH has provided these and other documents to health care providers and partners via the California Health Alert Network (CAHAN).
In September, CDPH convened more than 1,100 health care and public health workers to urge them to assess their Ebola readiness and conduct drills in their facilities. Last week, CDPH officials held a teleconference with health care providers to discuss the latest news and guidance about handling suspected Ebola cases. CDPH is providing weekly updates to local health officials, first responders and health care providers as the Ebola outbreak continues in West Africa. CDPH launched a telephone hotline call center to respond to public inquiries related to Ebola. Earlier this week, Governor Brown joined officials from the California Health and Human Services Agency (CHHS), CDPH, Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) and Cal/OSHA to meet with California hospital leaders, nurses, emergency responders, local health directors and medical providers.
CDPH is also available to provide consultation about suspect Ebola cases to local health departments and health care providers 24 hours a day, seven days a week. CDPH joins with a team of state departments and agencies including CHHS, the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (CalOES), Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA) and DIR, to address all aspects of preparedness for a potential Ebola case in California.

ONE of Hampshire’s leading politicians has spoken of his “life-changing” experience watching D-Day preparations.
County council education boss Peter Edgar grew up in Gosport and witnessed soldiers, tanks and guns pass through the town in June 1944 ready to begin the assault on Normandy.
Cllr Edgar, who lived through German bombings during the Blitz, said: “These men had left their families and were going off somewhere, we knew not exactly where, to sort out the terrible Germans who had dropped bombs on us, killed our neighbours and friends and had wrecked our railway station and cinema.
“All over Gosport in familiar local areas, such as Forton, Elson, Brockhurst and Alverstoke, there were large piles of rubble where homes had been.
He added: “As D-Day approached and the armour and troops filled our streets, there was great relief that at last we were going to hit back at the Germans and this dreadful, evil war could be coming to an end. As the preparations gained momentum, security was obviously very tight but us kids went everywhere.”
But it was on D-Day itself that he realised the true terrors of war when landing craft returned to Gosport carrying seriously wounded soldiers.
Cllr Edgar said: “Incoming landing craft were being met by a fleet of ambulances to take the wounded off to hospitals in the area. The most seriously wounded would go to Haslar but all hospitals in the area were extremely busy. There was also the site of the bodies of those servicemen who had been killed being unloaded. An extremely harrowing and unforgettable experience for us children.”
Those craft were followed a day later by 1,039 German prisoners of war who were marched through Gosport on their way to prison camps.
He said: “We just could not believe our eyes. As the landing craft hit the ramps the large bow doors opened and one British soldier with his gun casually over his shoulder, descended. He was followed by hundreds of Germans. Another British soldier would come ashore followed by more Germans.
A memorial that Cllr Edgar places at Stokes Bay every June
“The Germans were in the main pathetic, bedraggled figures. I, along with most of those who witnessed this scene, could not believe that these were the frightening monsters who had done such terrible things to our town and its people.
“It now came home to us that they were human beings just like us. The conflict in all of our minds was summed up by the actions of householders nearby who were viewing the scene. Some were offering cups of coffee to these defeated soldiers whilst others were taking the coffee away.”
He added: “That scene certainly was a life changing moment for me. Its experience taught me of the futility of war and I definitely never again used the phrase, ‘The only good German is a dead German.’”
