The fog pretty much has maintained the same density, about a half mile to a quarter mile. I took this picture around dawn this morning when the dense fog was in Montgomery County. Wet roads and the fog still persists. Weather alert day today. Steadier rain moving in and continued fog and maybe some delays for later this afternoon. Well have updates and postings from storm team 4. Theres the radar showing this Conveyor Belt of rain that continues out of the southwest, out of the carolinas into virginia, now coming into the district and into maryland. We have this mostly light rain. We have a few pockets here where its coming down harder. The darker greens here, around takoma park, college park and south in southern Prince Georges County, northern charles. Off to the west getting moderate showers, western fairfax into Prince William county. Have the umbrella handy. New details about the death of former National Security adviser sandy berger. We are learning he died this morning after a l
Not able to provide a support letter. But she will provide a letter of support. Supervisor david campos my understanding is that supervisor breed is in support of that as well. As laid out a number of conditions and specific for karoake places to protect the health and safety of people and prevent crime or prostitution. Are you aware, are you understanding all of these different conditions . Yes, definitely. Yes. It sounds like there is at least one other karoake place nearby. Yes. One couple doors down from you. So maybe it will become a more karoake center place in japantown in the fillmore area. Okay. I dont see any other questions from colleagues. Lets open up for Public Comment. Is there any additional Public Comment . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. I just revealed that i like karoake and aware of different places. Good luck with the business.

Amount of big data, quality measurement stuff, and we dont know how well we can put that knowledge in the consumers that have other choices to make, how well they will be able to process the information and it will work through in the markets and i think organizations that have the creditability are important.

Correctional health care in 2011 which was about 1 in 6 of their entire correctional budget. And that level of spending shouldnt be surprising. This is not a healthy population. That includes a loent of folks with chronic conditions, with Mental Illness, with addiction disorders, and its getting older as the population ages. Ad so its not surprising that states are trying a whole range of different strategies to get r handle on Correctional Health a spending, everything from contracting with third partiesag to deliver the care to having more services delivered on site to taking advantage of new Health Coverage opportunities for inmates. So today wereto going to take a look at how well those cov strategies and some others are working and what kinds of policy changes might be helpful to improve both the quality and the value of the care that this population receives.

Obviously, medical records is a part of it. Thinking about bringing standards of care that medicaid brings is another part of it. But at this point, were all very much in the process of understanding i
