KPTA Member, Connie Hauser, PT, DPT, Appointed to Health Benefit
Connie Hauser, PT, DPT has been appointed to Kentucky?s Health Benefit Exchange Advisory Board. Nominated by the Kentucky Physical Therapy Association, Connie will be the voice of physical therapy on the 19-member board. The Health Benefit Exchange Advisory Board will review programmatic and policy issues, and make recommendations for Kentucky?s new marketplace for health insurance mandated by the federal Affordable Care Act (ACA).
The health benefit exchange will facilitate the purchase and sale of health plans in the individual market; assist small employers in facilitating the enrollment of their employees in health plans; provide one-stop shopping by helping individuals enroll in health plans Medicaid and KCHIP; enable individuals to receive premium tax credits and premium subsidies; and qualify small businesses for tax credits.
Kentucky has only through the end of this year to demonstrate its readiness to run a health insurance exchange or the responsibility will default to the federal government, according to Gov. Steve Beshear.
KPTA has also met with state officials overseeing the Health Benefit Exchange. Your association has reviewed the potential public insurance plans and made recommendations on plans which offer the most comprehensive physical therapy coverage, which would result in the most effective outcomes for consumers.

Green Blog: The Panda Vigil
On Sunday night, Brandie Smith, the curator of endangered giant pandas at the Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington, was at her computer, taking part in a charged conference call that revolved around a squawk.
?Did we hear a squeak? Was that a squeak?? she said in an interview, describing the back and forth.
With two other zoo officials, Dr Smith was counting the sounds ? all of them squeals ?like nothing you?ve ever heard before? ? before she and her colleagues were ready to make an announcement. ?Once you have a baby panda, the whole world gets involved,? she said.
In a video made on Sunday night, the mother, Mei Xiang, can be seen rustling in her dense nest of bamboo at 10:45 p.m. as she undergoes contractions.
?She gives birth,? said Don Moore, associate director of animal care sciences at the Smithsonian. ?She is startled by something on the floor ? that would be the cub ? and she reaches down and takes hold of it.?
Mei Xiang had last borne a cub in 2005, and the seven-year gap had given zookeepers little reason to hope that she would do so again. Her age, 14, and a series of pseudopregnancies that never resulted in offspring had led experts to estimate that she had less than a 10 percent chance of giving birth.
So until the new baby emerged ? ?about the size of a stick of butter,? Dr. Moore said ? officials were wary of trusting in the evident signs of pregnancy. Their uncertainty underlines the complex and somewhat uncharted nature of the captive breeding of panda bears.
First, there?s the delicate matter of courtship and mating. Having to rely on Mei Xiang?s mate, Tian Tian ? ?not the most confident breeder as a male,? Dr. Moore said ? has made impregnation challenging.
In the wild, female pandas go into heat and mate with several males. When they go into heat in captivity, only one candidate is often available, usually one that lives apart from the female. That means that zookeepers must watch to determine when the female is most receptive to the male?s advances.
But in the event that the singular male on site is ?shy,? as with Tian Tian, zoo officials may turn to artificial insemination. Pierre Comizzoli, a gamete biologist at the Smithsonian, was part of the insemination team that impregnated Mei Tiang with a batch of Tian Tian?s sperm that was frozen in 2005.
The team has a quality checklist. There must be a high density of sperm cells in the sample. The sperm need to move in a straight line. (Those that move in confused circles are less reliable.)
Anesthesia follows, and during her slumber, the female panda is inseminated. There?s an art to it all, but ?the biggest challenge is that we still need to better understand the basic physiology of these animals,? Dr. Comozzoli said.
While the panda has long been part of the public consciousness ? emblazoned, for example, on the W.W.F.?s crest ? the creatures can still befuddle experts.
A female panda can exhibit all the signs of a successful pregnancy ? raised hormone levels in her urine, weight gain and nesting behavior ? and not give birth at the end of it all. Since she is in heat only once a year, these pseudopregnancies work like an ?insurance policy for the real thing,? in case fertilization and implantation have actually occurred, researchers say.
But even when all goes well, the mother-to-fetus size ratio is so enormous that scientists must struggle to find the cub during ultrasound tests.
So Mei Xiang?s cub was not altogether expected. ?We are still giddy,? Dr.? Smith said. ?There?s still a little amazement and disbelief, a whole lot of elation. And then there?s the fact that we?re going to be watching this little cub growing up.?
It will be some time before zookeepers catch a glimpse. Mother pandas shield their young for weeks before they leave briefly to find food and water. But when Mei Xiang finally does go foraging, zookeepers will conduct the quickest possible physical exam ? even if they have to take a second timer with them, Dr. Smith joked.
Some commentators fault the publicity surrounding the birth as a ?cuteness overload? intended to encourage ?Pandamania? and draw zoo donations. But Dr. Comozzoli counters that panda births inspire hope and open a window onto the natural world. And then there are the research benefits.
?Our female didn?t reproduce for several years,? he said. ?So scientifically,? the birth ? is a huge source of information.?
Conservation-wise, the new cub joins a 350-strong pool of genetically diverse captive pandas, most of which are in China. The hope is that many could eventually be returned to the wild in China through programs that expose them to their natural bamboo forest habitat.
But for now, Dr. Moore said he simply rejoices in a small step forward. ?It?s good news, when the world has a lot of bad news,? he said.

British fugitive shoots dead two unarmed policewomen
LONDON (Reuters) - One of Britain's most wanted fugitives killed two unarmed policewomen on Tuesday in a gun and grenade ambush, police said, killings which are likely to reignite a long-running debate over whether British officers should carry guns.
Police constables Fiona Bone, 32, and Nicola Hughes, 23, were gunned down in a hail of bullets after responding to a hoax call about a burglary in the northern English city of Manchester.
Despite shock over the murders, described by Prime Minister David Cameron as "despicable", senior police officers said they were determined that the British force would remain one of few in the world which is not routinely armed.
Police said the two constables, one of whom was about to be married, had been deliberately lured into a trap by Dale Cregan, 29, a suspect in another double killing in the city. Cregan handed himself into a local police station after the shooting.
Either Cregan or an associate made the false burglary report to lure the officers to the scene, said Greater Manchester Police Chief Constable Peter Fahy.
"Then he has come out and shot and killed them both," Fahy told reporters, adding Cregan also threw a grenade at them.
"Certainly, it would appear to be that he has deliberately done this in an act of absolutely cold-blooded murder. It's almost impossible to fathom such an evil act."
Fahy did not offer any possible motive for the ambush.
Witnesses reported hearing more than a dozen shots and an explosion. One of the officers died at the scene and the other in hospital, police said.
"PURE EVIL"
Fahy said catching Cregan had been their top priority since the murder of David Short in August and the shooting of Short's son Mark in a pub in May.
Local media said those killings resulted from a long-running family feud and police had offered a 50,000 pound ($81,000) reward for information leading to his arrest.
Politicians and chief officers across the country spoke of their horror at Tuesday's shootings.
"What we've seen is just (an) absolutely despicable act of pure evil," Cameron said in a statement.
It is rare for British police officers, especially female constables, to be killed in the line of duty. Unlike the bulk of forces across the world, the overwhelming majority of Britain's 150,000 police officers do not regularly carry firearms, although every force has special armed units and some carry electric Taser stun guns.
The last time more than one police officer was shot dead in the same incident in Britain was in the 1960s.
In 2005, unarmed constable Sharon Beshenivsky was killed and a female colleague wounded when they went to investigate an armed robbery in the northern English city of Bradford.
That led to a heated debate over whether Britain should arm its police, but Fahy, other senior officers and politicians again said they did not want officers to carry firearms.
"We are passionate that the British style of policing is routinely unarmed policing," he said.
"Sadly we know from the experience in America and other countries that having armed officers certainly does not mean sadly that police officers do not end up getting shot dead."
Cameron said more armed units were now available than previously. "This was supposed to be the response to a domestic burglary and that wouldn't require armed officers," he said.
Paying tribute to the dead officers, Fahy said the karate-loving Hughes had worked for the police for three years and Bone, who had five years service, was preparing for her wedding.
"Her partner only spoke to her this morning about the wedding invites and fellow officers gave her advice about to make them on the computer," he said. ($1 = 0.6152 British pounds)

Amazon brings Cloud Player music service to the UK: choice of free or premium tiers from ?6 per year
Brits who've been straining for a reason to care about Amazon's budding Cloud Player service can probably relax. It's live in the UK as of now, offering 5GB of online storage and the ability to stream 250 of your tracks (or 256Kbps matched versions) to a range of devices free of charge. Adding extra storage will cost from £6 per year for 20GB, rising to £320 p/a for a full terabyte. If you're a heavy user, though, you may also need to fork out £22 p/a for the right to stream up to 250,000 of your tracks. Paying to play to music you already purchased? Indeed, further exertion may be necessary to figure out if it's all worth it, along with a glance at the detailed press release after the break.

Kate Middleton, Prince William File Criminal Complaint Over Topless Pictures
Days after launching an injunction in a civil case against Closer magazine, Kate Middleton and Prince William have filed a criminal complaint in a French court.
Seeking justice against those who disseminated Kate Middleton topless photos last week, the complaint asks prosecutors to charge the paparazzo behind the shots.
Of course, there was no name listed in the royals' criminal complaint, as it's unclear who was responsible for taking the pics published in the celebrity gossip mag.
Under French law, those convicted of violating Will and Kate's privacy - the unnamed paparazzo and Closer's editor, in theory - could face thousands of euros in fines.
A possible one-year jail sentence is also on the table, albeit unlikely.
As it happened, Closer removed the pics from its website on Friday shortly after being sued, and before the criminal complaint was even filed by the royals.
However, Closer's Italian sister publication, Chi, ran a 26-page spread today of Kate Middleton nude and topless images, many of them the same as Closer's.
A statement released by Mondadori, the group that owns Chi and Closer, defended the decisions made by the respective editors to run a report on the pictures:
"The publisher respects the arguments put forward by the editors."
