1991.03.19 :  Medicare Cataract Surgery Demonstrations

Contact:   Bob Hardy (202) 245-6145
March 19, 1991

       Medicare has chosen three geographic areas to test whether
cataract surgery can be offered for a single fee that is lower than
the combined fees currently paid to the surgeon and the surgical
facility, HHS Secretary Louis W. Sullivan, M.D., announced today.
       The three sites chosen for the Medicare Cataract Surgery
Alternate Payment Demonstration Project are: Albany/Troy, N.Y.;
Cleveland, Ohio; and Dallas/Ft. Worth, Texas.
       The pilot project will test the "bundled" or "global" fee
arrangement already being used in the private sector.  The single,
negotiated global fee would cover all costs associated with an
episode of cataract surgery with an intraocular lens implant.
       Cataract surgery is performed on Medicare beneficiaries more
often than any other outpatient procedure, and has been targeted in
recent years by Congress as overpriced.  In 1991, HCFA will spend
over $3 billion for about one million cataract procedures.
       "We all recognize the benefits of cataract surgery for the
elderly.  HCFA's cataract surgery demonstration project will
pay negotiated fees," Dr. Sullivan said, "with the advantage of
better coordinating the care provided our Medicare beneficiaries."
     "We must offer proper incentives to providers if we are to
receive better value for our health care dollars," said Gail R.
Wilensky, Ph.D., administrator of the Health Care Financing
Administration, which runs the Medicare program.
       "One good way to achieve this is to pay a negotiated price
for a variety of services.  In this way, providers themselves can
decide where to economize while still offering competitive prices. 
This approach is far superior to constraining costs by
micro-managing health care delivery."
       Participation in the cataract demonstration by physicians
and beneficiaries is completely voluntary, and the demonstration
will not establish "exclusive" providers.
       "Designated providers will not be selected on price alone. 
A record of quality assurance and medical appropriateness will be
taken into consideration as well," Dr. Wilensky said.
       Abt Associates Inc. of Cambridge, Mass., is providing
technical support for the design and implementation of the
demonstration project.  Solicitation notices and preliminary
application packages are being sent to all Medicare cataract
surgery providers in the demonstration cities.
       Interested providers in the demonstration cities who have
not received the initial solicitation announcement and pre-
application package by April 5 can request one from Abt Associates
Inc. by calling 1-800-777-2618.

Kynard, B. and J. O'Leary (1993).  Evaluation of a bypass system for spent 
American shad at Holyoke Dam, Massachusetts. North American Journal of Fisheries 
Management.  13:782-789.
	
A bypass system for post-spawned American shad Alosa sapidissima began operation 
in 1980 on the Connecticut River canal system at Holyoke Dam. The purpose of the 
bypass was to enable downstream migrants that enter the canal to exit and avoid 
death due to delay or passage through hydroelectric turbines at water use 
facilities. The bypass system had the following elements: (1) an underwater AC 
electrical or acoustic barrier to prevent American shad from leaving the bypass 
area, (2) an underwater DC electrical field to immobilize fish for collection, 
and (3) a collection box with transfer pipe to carry fish to the river below the 
dam. During studies of the bypass system from 1979 to 1983, we found that the 
fish barriers were ineffective, the collection system was partially effective 
for American shad but not for anadromous species that passed through trashracks, 
and American shad could be immobilized and transported at high velocity through 
a pipe and have only low mortality (4-9%). Radio-tagged American shad, unwilling 
to pass through trashracks at water exits on the canal, behaved like trapped 
fish and were delayed an average of two or more days before dying or exiting the 
canal. An estimated 10 of 47 (21%) of the radio-tagged fish were passed. In 
1980, when the greatest number of American shad were passed, an estimated 
142,000 (37% of the fish lifted at the dam) survived spawning and used the 
bypass. After several years of operation, it was evident that, even with major 
improvements, the bypass could not pass the available American shad, and it was 
not useful for protecting other anadromous migrants that did not avoid 
trashracks.

Subject: S7-31-99, Proposed Disclosure Regulation
 
Without a doubt, ending selective disclosure of material information is 
a desirable step toward making publicly-traded securities' markets more 
honest and impartial.  The information-distribution infrastructure is in 
place.  It would be helpful that publicly-traded companies would inform 
at least two or three of the major news and business news organizations 
at the same time of material events or plans, or of up-coming times
and venues of announcements, conference calls, etc.  But regardless of 
implementation details, the proposed regulation is needed to help stop 
the ugly, un-democratic, advance-of-public-disclosure buying and selling 
that is so evident to the stock-trading public.  The fraction of one- 
percent population privy to pre-publicly disseminated information pales 
against the huge percentage of stock-buying taxpayers and voters not 
privy
to selective disclosure.  The status quo is certainly not democratic; it 
is
not in keeping with the ideals that America tries to nurture.
     
My family, friends, and I fully support Fair Disclosure.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY
333 AM CDT SUN JUN 29 2003

MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE REMAINS THE CHANCE FOR CONVECTION MONDAY AND 
TUESDAY. WITH THE REGION STILL IN THE MIDST OF HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING 
AT THE SURFACE...MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES PREVAILED EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. 
THE ONLY EXCEPTION...THE HIGH THIN CIRRUS FROM CONVECTIVE COMPLEXES 
OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS.

IT STILL LOOKS LIKE ONE MORE DRY DAY IS ON TAP FOR THE REGION. EVEN 
THOUGH THE SKY MAY OCCASIONALLY BE FILLED WITH CIRRUS...THE ABSENCE 
OF ANY SIGNIFICANT CUMULUS DEVELOPMENT AS PORTRAYED BY THE ETA CU 
RULE SHOULD STILL EQUATE TO PLENTY OF SUNSHINE. WILL STAY CLOSE TO 
MAV GUIDANCE FOR HIGHS TODAY AND TONIGHT AS THIS STRATEGY HAS WORKED 
WELL DURING THE PAST FEW DAYS.

BY MONDAY...A VERY WEAK DECAYING FRONTAL BOUNDARY APPROACHING FROM 
THE NORTHWEST WILL ENCOUNTER INCREASING TROPICAL MOISTURE FROM THE 
GULF. EXACTLY HOW THIS UNFOLDS IS IN MUCH DEBATE BY THE VARIOUS 
NUMERICAL MODELS...BUT THE RESULT FOR OUR REGION IS ESSENTIALLY THE 
SAME. A LOOK AT FORECAST SOUNDINGS FROM THE ETA/GFS/NGM/UKMET 
INDICATE AN ATMOSPHERE MOIST AND UNSTABLE ENOUGH TO PRODUCE 
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM LATE MONDAY MORNING INTO AT 
LEAST TUESDAY EVENING. CURRENT THINKING IS THAT COVERAGE OF 
CONVECTION WILL LIKELY BE THE GREATEST DURING THE AFTERNOON AND 
EVENING HOURS BOTH DAYS...WHEN THE SURFACE-BASED INSTABILITY PEAKS. 
GENERALLY FAVOR A BLEND BETWEEN THE WARMER FWC AND COOLER MAV ON 
MONDAY...AND MAV GUIDANCE LOOKS GOOD FOR TUESDAY.

FROM WEDNESDAY ON...THE GENERAL MODEL CONSENSUS IS FOR AN UPPER 
LEVEL RIDGE TO BUILD FROM THE SOUTHWESTERN STATES EASTWARD INTO THE 
PLAINS. EVEN THOUGH OUR AREA WILL BE ON THE EASTERN FRINGE OF THIS 
RIDGE...THERE WILL LIKELY BE JUST ENOUGH OF A CAP TO SQUELCH ANY 
ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. THE ONLY EXCEPTION MAY BE 
WEDNESDAY...BUT THAT CAN BE ADJUSTED LATER AS NEED BE. OVERALL. THE 
PREVIOUS FORECAST PACKAGE HANDLES THIS SCENARIO WELL...SO NO MAJOR 
CHANGES REQUIRED.

.PAH...NONE.

PRESLEY
LETTER.
New York, October 3,185&
My Dear Mb. Moore :Agreeably to your request, I enclose a copy of the " Seven Artikells which ye Church of Leyden sent to yff Counsell of England to bee considered of in respeckt of their judgments occationed about theer going to Virginia." As far as I know, they have never been published. The account of the principles of the Pilgrims, to which the author of the New England Chronology refers, is a different paper; and none of the successors of Prince seem to have been aware of the existence of this document. It escaped the notice of Bishop Wilberforce, to whom America is deeply indebted for the discovery of the original manuscript of Bradford's History of the Plymouth Colony; and of Mr. Anderson, who more distinctly announced to the world that the original manuscript of that long lost work was in the library of the Bishop of London.
We have now from Mr. Charles Deane of Boston, under the auspices of the Massachusetts Historical Society, an admirable edition of Bradford's History, illustrated witH equal diligence and fidelity. On pages 30 and 31 of that volume, you will find a reference to the Seven Articles, which, however, were not inserted in the History, even in an abstract They seem to have slumbered unnoticed for more than two centuries among the Virginia volumes in the State Paper Office in Westminster. The copy I send you was made for me by Mr. Sainsbury, a clerk in that office, in whose accuracy I have entire confidence.
For the just interpretation of the articles, the purpose of the Pilgrims must be borne in mind; and also the contemporaneous work of John Eobinson, called "A just and necessary Apology of certain Christians, no less contumeliously they commonly called Brownists or Barrowists."

I have watched small companies borrow money
under a "toxic preferred" and then quickly see their
stock price go to pennies, get de listed and considered
a worthless company.  It is the hedge funds that made
the stock and thereby company worthless.  But even more
heinous is the fact that the DTC which is run by the brokerage firms,
is not enforcing the delivery of shares and leaving trades open.
Some of these small companies have resorted to issuing
paper certificates to attempt to stem the electronic entry of
shares.  
 
How can any portion of the broker dealer community be trusted
if this activity is allowed to continue?  Who will force the brokers
to buy in those shares?  It is a house of cards. How many stocks
have short positions that are larger than their float?
 
Why is it that Worldcom can be corrupt and be fined and reduced
to pennies a share, but still be considered "a real company".  While
small businesses that have followed proper SEC regs can be illegally
reduced to pennies and once they reach that state, no one cares because
they are just penny stocks.  They wouldnt be penny stocks if you didnt
allow the fox to run the hen house.  If you force those firms to deliver the
shares there will be a short squeeze and it will cost those firms millions
(billions?) of dollars.  It is in the broker-dealers interest to have those
penny stocks go out of business once they and their hedge funds have
squeezed the commission and life out of them.  It is time for the SEC
to enforce the rules on the books against the DTC and broker-dealer
community and come to the aid of the small investor and the small business.
 
Why hasnt Elliott Spitzer picked up on this one yet?  Is it too 
much of a powder keg?

FISH PASSAGE THROUGH DAMS ON THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER.  

Daniel B. Wilcox 1, and Joseph H. Wlosinski 2.   1 St. Paul District,
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Environmental Resources Section,
190 5th Street East, St. Paul, MN 55101; 2 U.S. Geological Survey,
Upper Mississippi Environmental Sciences Center, 575 Lester
Drive, Onalaska, WI 54650.  

The Upper Mississippi River (UMR) is impounded by a series of 29
navigation dams which restrict fish movements in the river
system.  Design characteristics and operation of most UMR
navigation dams allow both upriver and downriver fish passage. 
Downriver fish passage can occur through the locks and the gated
sections of the dams.  Some fish may pass upriver through the
navigation locks, but the locks do not provide favorable pathways
for upriver fish passage.  Opportunity for upriver fish passage
is dependent upon hydraulic conditions at the dams, fish
behavior, and fish swimming abilities.  We examined historic fish
mark/recapture and telemetry data to identify fish species and
conditions under which fish pass through the dams.  We found
information on 126 UMR fish mark/recapture and telemetry studies
and were able to obtain at least some original data from 84 of
the studies.  Less than 10 percent of the marked fish were
recaptured.  Ten of the studied fish species were found to move
through at least one dam.  Of the 5,253 marked fish recaptured in
all studies, 87 percent were recaptured in the same pool where
marked, 8 percent moved upriver through at least one dam, and 5
percent moved downriver.  We examined head at the dams during
time periods when the marked fish were at large.  We could not
estimate the head during passage through dams for most of the
marked fish because of their long periods at large. We could
estimate the head within one foot for 68 of the marked fish that
moved through dams.  Of these, only five moved in a downriver
direction.  Of the 63 marked fish that moved upriver, 55 passed
through dams when the head was less than 0.3 m.  We investigated
hydraulic conditions through the dam gate openings using
information from a physical hydraulic model and with standard
hydraulic equations.  We reviewed the literature on migration
behavior and swimming performance of 25 migratory fishesin the
UMR.  Through analysis of the fish mark/recapture data, hydraulic
conditions at the dams, fish behavior and swimming performance
information, we estimated probability of opportunity for upriver
passage through UMR dams by different UMR adult fishes.  Most of
the UMR navigation dams present semipermeable barriers to upriver
passage, with fish passage opportunity varying markedly between
dams and fish species.  We identified the dams that present the
greatest barriers to fish passage.  Operational changes and
structural modifications at UMR navigation dams are possible and
may improve opportunity for fish passage throughout the UMR.
