By Jane Sutton GANTANAMO BAY U.S. NAVAL BASE, Cuba (Reuters) - The U.S. military has lost a year's worth of records describing the Guantanamo confinement of Osama bin Laden's driver, a prosecutor said at the Yemeni captive's war court hearing on Thursday. Lawyers for the driver, Salim Ahmed Hamdan, asked for the records to support their argument that prolonged isolation and harassment at the Guantanamo prison have mentally impaired him and could affect his ability to aid in his defense against war crimes charges. "All known records have been produced with the exception of the 2002 Gitmo records," one of the prosecutors, Navy Lt. Cmdr. Timothy Stone, told the court. "They can't find it." He said the military was still looking for the records kept at the remote U.S. naval base in southeast Cuba, which he referred to by its nickname. The chief prosecutor, Army Col. Larry Morris, said all of Hamdan's interrogation records were given to the defense at least a y
By Jane Sutton GUANTANAMO BAY U.S. NAVAL BASE, Cuba, (Reuters) - The U.S. military has lost a year's worth of records describing the Guantanamo interrogation and confinement of Osama bin Laden's driver, a prosecutor said at the Yemeni captive's war court hearing on Thursday. Lawyers for the driver, Salim Ahmed Hamdan, asked for the records to support their argument that prolonged isolation and harassment at the Guantanamo prison have mentally impaired him and compromised his ability to aid in his defense on war crimes charges. "All known records have been produced with the exception of the 2002 Gitmo records," one of the prosecutors, Navy Lt. Cmdr. Timothy Stone, told the court. "They can't find it." He said the military was still looking for the records kept at the remote U.S. naval base in southeast Cuba, which he referred to by its nickname. President George W.

It's becoming more and more common for potential employers to check public criminal records before hiring anyone, although this isn't always a hard and fast rule. Some employers will do it for every employee, while others have yet to jump on this bandwagon. How will you know if any of your potential employers will use such records to check up on you, and what are they looking for? Obviously the answer will be different for every employer, but here are some common reasons.Working With ChildrenBecause children are so vulnerable, anyone that will be working with them in any capacity will probably be subject to a background check that includes any public criminal records. You don't necessarily need to have committed a crime against children to be excluded from this type of employment. Anyone that would commit assault or any such personal crime may be seen as a danger to someone that is powerless against them. Drunk driving may be another type of conviction that will keep you from working w
NEW DELHI: No-frill carrier GoAir said it recorded a massive 73% growth in passenger traffic in nine months of the current fiscal carrying 9 million passengers.After it expanded its operations last November, doubling its weekly flights to 561, GoAir recorded an average load factor of 83%, which it claimed was maintained consistently over the past year.The airline, run by the Wadia Group, said it was poised to maintain this growth trend in passenger traffic, load factors and market share in the last quarter of this fiscal as well.Claiming that the airline’s market share was on an upswing, GoAir’s Managing Director Jeh Wadia said: “We enjoy the highest market share per aircraft in the industry.” The airline has also managed to maintain lead by recording such high load factor, he said.- Economic Times

According to Video Business, the final installment in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series is set to break Blu-ray sales records after selling an estimated 160,000 copies in its first week.Disney has so far declined comment, but if the numbers are correct it will smash the previous sales champ, Sony's "Spider-Man 3", which moved 130,000 copies in its first week.As always however, the sales were tiny compared to standard definition sales, where "At World's End" sold 8 million copies in its first week.Source:HD Digest
During spring and early summer of 2007, the School of Library and Information Science at Kent State University conducted a Delphi study on critical FRBR issues as part of an IMLS-funded project concerning the research and development of FRBR-based retrieval systems.The greatest concern was "Need to develop cataloging rules in line with FRBR." A bit further down the list was "Need to verify and validate the FRBR model against real data and in different communities to make sure the model is valid and applicable."

Josh Homme has a somewhat low opinion of his record label, it turns out:"Fuck the labels, man, they suck. The last thing they're stripping down is their own expense accounts and shit. I mean, (President) Jimmy Iovine of Interscope Records takes a private jet or rides first class to tell a band they don't get tour support...I'm not gonna be quiet because the American label, not Canada, not Europe, but our American label's fucking us like crazy, so fuck them...I'm not even bitter, people say labels are evil, no. They're just lame.""They can't do anything to me. That's the difference...they can't stop me from being me and from playing, but they can lose their jobs and have to fucking work at Shakey's pizza like they should've all along.""I have a retarded record company. They're all locked in their hysteria of a business that they don't understand, you know.

Coheed and Cambria's new record, "No World For Tomorrow," has debuted at #6 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, marking the band's highest debut in its career as well as its highest chart position. "No World For Tomorrow" marks the apex and final chapter of "The Amory Wars," the conceptual, apocalyptic storyline which runs through the band's previous albums -- "The Second Stage Turbine Blade" (2002), "In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3" (2003), and "Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness" (2005) – and chronicles the the trials and tribulations of main characters Coheed and Cambria Kilgannon and their children as they fight to save civilization.Coheed and Cambria are currently on an extensive North American headline tour with Clutch and The Fall of Troy.
News from the CPSO.The major authority record exchange partners (British Library, Library of Congress, National Library of Medicine, and OCLC, Inc., in consultation with Library and Archives Canada) have agreed to a basic outline that will allow for the addition of references with non-Latin characters to name authority records that make up the LC/NACO Authority File.While the romanized form will continue to be the authorized heading (authority record 1XX field), NACO contributors will be able to add references in non-Latin scripts following MARC 21’s “Model B” for multi-script records. Model B provides for unlinked non-Latin script fields with the same MARC tags used for romanized data, such as authority record 4XX fields. Using Model B for authorities is a departure from the current bibliographic record practice of many Anglo-American libraries where non-Latin characters are exported as 880 fields (Alternate Graphic Representation) using MARC 21’s “Model A” for multiscript
The Baseliners - perhaps inspired by the current belief that you can't make money out of recorded music anyway - have tossed all the take from their debut album to the Rotary Club.Now, imagine if the supposedly-still-socialist McGee had thought of that for the Charlatans album, instead of merely giving it away... a good cause could have had a nice payday; the band would have still got the publicity (and might have not been edged out quite so swiftly by the Radiohead story) and the perception that the band's music is without value could have been avoided.
From the LC Cataloging Newsline Vol. 15, no. 3 (October 2007)The Cataloging Policy and Support Office (CPSO) has begun creating and distributing subject authority records called "validation records" that represent valid 6XX headings plus subdivision strings (topical, chronological, geographic, and form), including strings with free-floating subdivisions for which subject authority records were not previously made. Validation records are being created to improve the "validation" capability of many integrated library management systems used by the Library of Congress and others by providing an authorized form of subject heading strings for machine matching.The validation records are identified by the presence of the 667 field which reads: "Record generated for validation purposes." All validation records will appear in LC's online catalogs but will not be printed in the annual edition of Library of Congress Subject Headings nor will they appear as proposed headings on the LC Subject Hea

“PARALYZER” RINGTONE / RINGBACK AND FULL-SONG DOWNLOAD SALES UP WEEKLY ACROSS THE BOARD WITH STRONG SUPPORT FROM VERIZON WIRELESSNew York --- Finger Eleven’s fourth album on Wind-up Records THEM VS. YOU VS. ME has delivered the band’s second crossover hit with “Paralyzer.” The song achieved the number one position on the Alternative, Active and Mainstream Rock charts. Subsequently, “Paralyzer” has crossed over to CHR, where it stands at 22 this week, and is a hit at HAC, where it continues to move towards the top ten at 16 with a bullet.In a market where ringtone and ringback tone success is heavily owned by the urban worlds of rap and hip-hop, the song is an example of where the mobile and on-line space can help propel the rock genre. An early indicator of the enormity of the song’s popularity came via Verizon Wireless shortly after the company entered into a distribution deal with Wind-up Records.Well before “Paralyzer” began its climb to the top of the chart

It might be kind of obvious from his embrace of industrial metal and songs about buggering pigs and S&M imagery, but Trent Reznor isn't exactly in it for the sales:I felt very strongly about the whole process of this record. I didn't care if it had singles on it, or got played on the radio; I don't care about MTV... at all. I don't care about how many records I sell — I mean, I hope people like the record and I hope people get the record, but I'm not doing this just to make a product that fits into a mould that a record label would like to make, there's enough people doing that. I don't feel like doing it [laughs] so I approached the whole thing with a kind of 'Fuck it, I'm going to do what I think is cool.' And some of it was... every time I sat down I was concerned about someone preaching to me, 'It has to have a strong melody, it has to have a bridge and...' Fuck all that. It has that button and it makes a noise that sounds cool to me. Nothing wrong with that."Presumably this is j

They reckon that music journalists are just frustrated pop stars, which might be true. But they're nowhere near as frustrated as disc jockeys are. The desire to make a record instead of merely playing them seems to seize every DJ at some point in their career and, however ill-advised, they will go ahead and find someone willing to stick something out.We've already explored Mike Read's attempts to boost his Trainspotters profile by recording his own jingle based on his own single, but there were to be worse transgressions.Steve Wright, for one. Wright's first toe dipped into seven inch vinyl was merely irritating: as Young Steve and The Afternoon Boys, he turned a weak catchphrase into a weaker single - one which even Russ Abbot might have thought twice about recording:I'm alrightYou're alrightEveryone's feeling alright tonightHaving a laugh and singing a songIf you're alright, you can't go wrongThe b-side, though, Oh, Damien, wasn't bad for a novelty single - being based on o

Taking in nearly $16 million through 1,951,074 ticket sales on 721 prints, the average of 2,706 viewers per screen is the highest-ever bow for a cartoon. says the article. Great success for Ratatouille in France is bound to happen, with the French eager to see an animated Pixar film featuring their beloved capital city. This is similar to the way Australians reacted to Finding Nemo back in 2003, which features Sydney. Read the full report here. Thanks goes to Jayn for pointing out the article.

?"? ????? ???"?At work, our state EDS (electronic data systems) audit completed today. Our clinical reimbursement assessment data/records were found to be 100% supported! (Hmm, being "supported" was in my Hebrew letter tarot reading Sunday morning. The state audit unexpectedly began Monday morning - a challenge [1] of tinne; tinne was also brought down Sunday morning.)100% supported means that 100% of our examined records (from late May through June) were in compliance with regulatory requirements and that every piece of reimbursable data had the necessary documentation to support and prove it's accuracy. In other words, everything we claimed to be reimbursably true was proven true - 100%.A special thank you goes out to Jamie, Jim, Cindy and Tina. I am particularly blessed to work with this group of people. It takes alot of hard work, attention to detail, thoroughness and collaboration to achieve a stellar rating like this!The auditors conducted the audit in a mere workday
News from LC.CPSO has begun a project to create subject authority records for every subject string appearing in bibliographic records to aid Library of Congress catalogers, and external users in the validation of LCSH subject heading strings. Effective immediately subject authority records are being created for valid subject strings obtained from bibliographic records. Formerly, these subject strings did not prompt the creation of subject authority records, because they contained free-floating subdivision[s].Some of these records are being created manually by the Cataloging Policy and Support Office staff, and some will be generated by machine, but all of them will be reviewed before distribution occurs. We anticipate at least 200 records per month at the start of this project. These records will not be printed in the annual editions of LCSH (the "red books"). The records can be identified by the legend "[proposed validation record]" appearing at the end of the 1xx string. This legend
There was a good discussion today about medical records completion on a medical/legal listserv to which I subscribe.
Delinquent medical records are a significant issue for many organizations. Patient care, as well as timely reimbursement can be seriously impacted by incomplete, inadequate, or unsigned medical records. Chasing, begging, threatening, and/or cajoling physicians to complete this onerous task can also eat up considerable staff time.
The original listserv question posed was: "I would like to know how hospitals have dealt with the issue of encouraging/forcing attending physicians to complete medical records in a timely manner."
Several excellent responses followed, including this one (partially quoted below) from Michael Callahan, Esq. Mr. Callahan also happens to be one of our scheduled speakers at this year's annual NAMSS Conference in New York City.

If you're a track and field purist, you might want to avert your eyes because you might not like what you're about to read. There's been talk again of scrubbing the record books clean, establishing a new set of records for the sport and/or (as Garry Hill, editor of Track & Field News, suggests), "going to a bifurcated system... [to] give the sport back its thrill of the world record chase."The other day Track and Field Superfan suggested a slight rewrite of some of the records. Now David Woods of Indystar.com puts in his two cents (and, if you track purists are still with us, this is your last chance to get out while the getting is good):"A convenient way to amend some records is to change weights of implements (shot, discus, hammer) or to raise heights of women's hurdles."I have long-thought it would be a good idea to go the rest of the way in the gender-equalization of events and implements. Women have come a long way (literally and figuratively) from the days when the longes
