FerrAro Dalhart Texan During the Dallam-Hartley Counties Hospital Dis- trict Board of Directors meeting July 26, board mem- ber Dwight Gray summed up his thoughts in one sen- tence. “We’re being asked to approve a budget we don’t know much about,” he said. Gray pointed out how, on the Capital Budget Re- quest sheet for fiscal year 2019, a total of $1,876,000 in equipment is listed. “We don’t have the money,” he said. The operating budget for fiscal year 2019 shows a deficit of $457,000, as well. Leroy Schaffner, chief executive officer for the dis- trict, and Joe Branick, chief financial officer, explained the documents presented to the board members. The equipment listed on the capital budget, for in- stance, was prioritized ac- cording to need, patient safety and the require- ment to meet regulations being the most vital. Of the nearly $1.9 million on that list, Schaffner ac- knowledged only about $700,000 was needed in the immediate future. “All the department managers know they aren’t getting anything unless we have the mon- ey,” Schaffner said. Branick was optimis- tic that the 2019 budget Joe Branick, chief finan- might end up being bal- cial officer, explains the budget during the Dallam- anced, after the new CEO, Hartley County Hospital Loree Tamayo, takes over District Board of Directors and changes are made.

  • A Meta-Analysis on Driver Safety and Cannabis Impairment
    A Meta-Analysis On Driver Safety and Cannabis Impairment A Major Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty Of the Worcester Polytechnic Institute In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelors of Science By: Wesley Fischer, ME ___________________________________ Nathaniel Lambert, MGE _____________________________________ Robert Rosen, MA _______________________________________ Date: March 1, 2019 Advised by: Jianyu Liang, Dimitrios Koutmos, and Buddika Peiris This report represents the work of WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its website without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, please see http://www.wpi.edu/academics/ugradstudies/project-learning.html Abstract: The goal of this project is to determine a procedure to accurately detect an impaired driver influenced by cannabis. Through simulated data constructed from parameters of national cannabis studies, we can measure the accuracy of suggested testing methods for Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs). Eventually, legislation will need to decide on guidelines and laws for LEOs to abide by when identifying drivers under the influence of cannabis, and with our recommendations, Massachusetts legislation will have a meta-analysis to assist with their decisions. 2 Table of contents: ABSTRACT: ..............................................................................................................................................................

  • Bohemian Rhapsody
    8 Bohemian Rhapsody aul Haggis and Deborah Rennard married in 1997, soon after Paul’s divorce from Diane became nal. Paul was still seeking joint custody of his three daughters. Without Pconsulting him, Diane had taken Lauren and Katy out of the Delphi Academy, apparently intending to enroll them in public school. Paul and Diane were ordered by the court to undergo psychiatric evaluation, a procedure that Scientology abhors. In December 1998, the court surprised everyone by awarding Paul full custody of his daughters. According to court records, the ruling followed the discovery that the girls were not enrolled in school at all. The girls were stunned. They had watched the hostilities through Diane’s eyes. No one had prepared them for the possibility that they might be taken from her—until then, it had been the three girls and their mother against the world. The girls thought the decision was unbalanced and unfairly inuenced by the fact that their father had more money. Alissa vowed she would never speak to him again. Haggis was also caught short by the court’s decision. In addition to the year-old son, James, he had with Deborah, he suddenly had two teenage daughters on his hands as well. (Alissa was twenty-one at the time, and lived on her own.) The girls felt uprooted and they missed the emotional support of their mother. They didn’t resent Deborah; actually, they appreciated her advocacy and the way she balanced out Paul. Still, it was a difficult adjustment for everyone. Paul put the girls in a private school, but that lasted only six months.
