[ARCHIVED] Mayor appeals to all residents: "Mask Up Enterprise!"
July 15, 2020/ City of Enterprise Press Release
Mayor William E. Cooper and city leaders appeal to everyone in the Enterprise area to follow the state mandate to wear masks in public.
Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey issued the mandate Wednesday, citing the rising case numbers and deaths attributed to COVID-19, Coronavirus.
"Do the right thing and wear a mask," Cooper said, repeating Ivey's message that every Alabamian should exercise personal responsibility and follow the recommended practices.
"'Mask Up Enterprise!' will be the rallying cry for our city while we are battling the rapid spread of COVID-19 in our community," he said.
The state mandate says "each person shall wear a mask or other facial covering that covers his or her nostrils and mouth at all times when within six feet of a person from another household in any of the following places: an indoor space open to the general public, a vehicle operated by a transportation service, or an outdoor public space where 10 or more people are gathered." Exceptions are children under six; anyone with medical conditions or disabilities that prevents them from wearing a mask, anyone while they are eating; anyone getting a service, such as dental work, that cannot be done with a mask on; people who are exercising in a gym setting or playing in an athletic event where a six-foot distance is maintained; and people who must remove the mask to speak to an audience, with a six-foot separation from others; or anyone who must take off the mask for effective communication with individuals who lip-read. An exception also exists when a person is required to remove a mask for identification, security or screening purposes.
To read the Gov. Ivey's order in its entirety, go to https://governor.alabama.gov/assets/2020/07/Safer-at-Home-Order-Mask-Amendment-7.15.2020-FINAL.pdf
In keeping with the Governor's mandate, Cooper said city employees will now be required to wear masks inside the building when the proper social distance cannot be sustained.
In addition, anyone entering a city facility for business or visiting an outdoor venue must wear a mask. This will apply to all Parks and Recreation activities as well the Enterprise Farmers Market.
Anyone who is scheduled to appear in Municipal Court beginning Monday, July 20, should also be prepared to wear a mask before entry. City court is being conducted at the Enterprise Civic Center on Highway 167 North until further notice to accommodate proper social distancing.
"We take this situation very seriously, and we want to do our part to prevent anyone else from becoming sick or dying from this unseen enemy that has disrupted our lives," Cooper said. "To overcome this enemy, we all have to work together, support each other and protect each other."
COVID-19 has claimed 1,183 lives in the state, including at least four in Coffee County. Alabama has a total of 58,225 cumulative cases since early March, with 18,717 on active status at this time. Coffee County has a cumulative total of 473 cases, according to the latest update from the Alabama Department of Public Health, with 115 active cases.
The county numbers reflect a somewhat dramatic increase of 120 total cases from June 30, and 49 additional active cases in the two-week quarantine period, Cooper said.
"The Governor, as well as our local city and emergency management officials are concerned about impact that the rapid increases in cases will have on hospital capacity," Cooper said.
Most people will not have symptoms serious enough for hospitalization, but Emergency Management Agency Director James Brown says that increasing case numbers throughout the state have led to more hospitalizations. A number of local and regional hospitals are at or nearing capacity. Cooper and other mayors in the county stay in close contact with Brown and the Coffee County EMA as they monitor the health crisis.
"We are considering alternate care locations in the event that our local and area hospitals reach capacity levels," Cooper assured.
Cooper said it is more important than ever that residents follow the safety practices that the ADPH and the Center for Disease Control, federal, state and local authorities have been recommending for months.
"We have been following the guidance of the ADPH and CDC as we've made decisions here in Enterprise and we believe this mandate is what's best for our citizens at this time," Cooper said. "Of course, safety is always a top priority for us."
Two weeks ago, the ADPH also unveiled a new risk alert indicator. Based on several factors, the ADPH assigns each Alabama county a category, starting with Low, Moderate, High and Very High.
Coffee County was placed in the High-Risk category to begin with but late last week was move up in to the Very High Risk category.
"This means we have got to follow all those safety measures - wearing masks, maintaining social distance, washing hands. This virus is scary and it's something that no one should take lightly," the Mayor said.
"But at the same time, let's not panic. Let's just take personal responsibility to keep ourselves and others safe so eventually we can stop this sickness and get back to our normal lives. Our goal is to see those daily rates dropping every day. We want to work toward dropping in the risk categories until we have defeated this enemy."

Mind Mapping Software - Create Mind Maps to Effectively analyze, make decisions, brainstorm.
Mind map is a graphical multidimensional representation of the information appearing as a result of brainwork. It is used to visualize words, ideas, tasks and other items that are linked by lines or curves and arranged around a central concept or idea. Mind maps are used to create, visualize, structure and classify ideas as well as a means of studying, organization, solving problems, making decisions and writing. Unlike flowcharts and organizational charts, rules of creating mind maps are not formalized and are just advisory.
Focus on really important items — every new node of the mind map (especially marked by color or icons) is a new central element, new center of the association.
Visually clear associations — mind maps help dimensionally correlate various ideas and terms. A person gets firm associations between the terms, and a related paradigm. As a result, the detailed system of conclusions is formed.
Memorizing improvement — it is achieved due to clear system of relationships and associations. Right logic and esthetic structuring of the information makes it easier to comprehend.
Get a big sheet of paper — the bigger, the better.
Use images, symbols, codes, and dimensions in your Mind Map.
Select key words, use upper case.
Each word/image should be used separately.
The lines come from the central image. The central lines are thicker, organic and flowing, becoming thinner as they go out from the centre.
Use multiple colors in the Mind Map, for visual stimulation and also to encode or group.

Q: How to fix "penalty term should be positive" in a logistic regression using Python Sklearn? I'm trying to run a logistic regression using Python and looping through several C's.
However, I keep getting the error ValueError: Penalty term must be positive; got (C=0.1). Which is very odd to me, since 0.1 is positive. I think the error is not exactly on the C value, but I don't know how to fix it. I tried to look at this question ValueError: Penalty term must be positive but I couldn't understand how to fix my problem.
And I'm very confused because when trying to plot the decision boundaries the code works.
Let's look at what I'm talking about. The following code works:
for this_C, subplot in zip([0.1, 1, 100], subaxes):
    clf = LogisticRegression(C=this_C).fit(X_train, y_train)
    print('Accuracy of Logistic regression classifier on training set: {:.2f}'
          .format(clf.score(X_train, y_train)))
    print('Accuracy of Logistic regression classifier on test set: {:.2f}'
          .format(clf.score(X_test, y_test)))

However, the code below doesn't work and I get the error mention
for this_C in zip([0.1, 1, 100]):
    clf = LogisticRegression(C=this_C).fit(X_train, y_train)
    print('Accuracy of Logistic regression classifier on training set: {:.2f}'
          .format(clf.score(X_train, y_train)))
    print('Accuracy of Logistic regression classifier on test set: {:.2f}'
          .format(clf.score(X_test, y_test)))

What is wrong with this second code? Why am I getting the error ValueError: Penalty term must be positive; got (C=0.1)
Thanks in advance.

A: The reason for the error lies in the loop in the second version.
Looking at the source-code of where it throws the error you're experiencing we see this:
if not isinstance(self.C, numbers.Number) or self.C < 0:
    raise ValueError("Penalty term must be positive; got (C=%r)"
        % self.C)

This says basically that if self.C is not either a numbers.Number-object or is not a positive integer, then we get this error.
If we look at what the second loop outputs, then we can understand better why the above line of code gives the error
>>> for this_C in zip([0.1, 1, 100]):
...     print(this_C)
...     print(type(this_C))
...
(0.1,)
<class 'tuple'>
(1,)
<class 'tuple'>
(100,)
<class 'tuple'>

So, the error is because it's given a tuple-object instead of a numbers.Number-object.

How to Become a Healthcare Administrator in Massachusetts – Degree, Careers and Salary
State guide to education and career information
How to Become a Healthcare Administrator in Massachusetts – Degree,/
Massachusetts Salary Outlook
Health Admin Undergrad Program Overview
Graduate Programs in Health Admin
Job Prospects in Massachusetts
Largest Employers of Healthcare Administrators in Massachusetts
Healthcare Administration Associations in Massachusetts
Health administration professionals play a crucial role in the booming field of healthcare. Rather than providing treatment and care, these administrators are responsible for the financial, managerial, logistical, legal, and operational aspects of healthcare. Essentially, they keep healthcare operations running smoothly so that doctors and nurses can provide exceptional care to patients.
The health administration career and salary outlook is bright in the state of Massachusetts. Between 2014 and 2024 the demand for these professionals is projected to grow by 14%, jumping from 11,320 to 12,950. The median wage for a health administrator in Massachusetts was $109,980 in 2017, but the highest earners in the state make $208,000 or more.
This bright outlook is matched by data for the country as a whole. Between 2016 and 2026 the demand for healthcare administrators is expected to grow by 20%, which is much faster than the national average for all careers. During that period an additional 72,000 health administrators will enter the field, bringing the national total over 400,000.
Careers in health administration offer lots of job opportunities, plenty of advancement potential, and generous compensation from the start. Discover how to plan, pursue and thrive in one of these careers in Massachusetts.
There are lots of jobs in hospital, clinics, and care facilities open to applicants with a high school diploma or associate's degree. However, a bachelor's degree from a four-year institution is a prerequisite for basically every health administration job in Massachusetts. Luckily, degree options are available throughout the state and in a variety of formats to suit a student's needs.
Types of Undergraduate Programs
There is not a single title to describe the applicable degrees, and they may be designated differently depending on the school. Look for some variation on these types of bachelor's degrees:
Bachelor of Business Administration with a concentration in Health Administration
Bachelor of Health Administration
Health Admin Curriculum
Four-year programs typically require 120 credits to complete. The first two years of schooling focus on broad topics in healthcare, businesses, and management. The final two years are more directly focused on issues and ideas within health administration. The specific curriculum is different in every program, but students can expect to take some combination of classes like these:
Healthcare Delivery in the U.S.
Healthcare Ethics
Healthcare Accounting
Bachelor's degrees are available in-person, online, or in a hybrid environment. Typically, hands-on experience is not a graduation requirement, but some programs may require students to complete a practicum, internship, or capstone project in their final years of school.
One advantage of healthcare administration compared to other careers in medicine is that professional certification is not necessary. Unlike doctors, nurses, and other hands-on care providers, administrators do no need to be licensed by the state or any other body in order to begin working legally. That means new graduates are eligible for many healthcare administration jobs immediately after graduating or even while still in school.
It's possible to find full-time employment in health administration with only a bachelor's degree. In order to advance, however, these professionals usually need to earn a master's degree. Higher-level health administration jobs require specialized knowledge. Plus, they require the same kind of focus and commitment that graduate programs do.
Types of Graduate Programs
Since master's degree programs have a sharper focus, there is a greater variety of program options available. There are some highly specialized and esoteric options out there, but most executive health administrators have some form of one of these degrees:
Master of Health Administration
Admission to health administration graduate programs can be highly selective. Every institution sets its own criteria for acceptance, and students will typically need to provide some or all of these documents:
Official copies of undergraduate transcripts
Proof of a bachelor's degree – an undergraduate degree in health administration is ideal, but many schools accept students from outside the discipline.
Proof of a minimum GPA during undergrad.
Proof of a minimum score on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE).
Descriptions of past work experience in healthcare.
Courses for Completion
Students must complete 32-60 credits to graduate from most master's programs. Full-time students can expect to meet this requirement in 2 years, but there some accelerated programs that make it possible to graduate faster. There are also certain specialties that take longer to complete. Finally, some schools offer hybrid bachelor's/master's programs that take 4-6 years to earn both degrees. The curriculum varies widely between programs, but these are some of the most common courses:
Statistical Reasoning
Legal and Ethical Issues in Health Administration
Financial Management in Healthcare
Human Resources in Healthcare
Managing Healthcare Quality and Patient Safety
Organizational Behavior and Management
Healthcare Regulation
Most master's degree programs culminate with a research project or comprehensive thesis. Students may also be asked to complete hands-on training at a hospital, clinic, non-profit, or other relevant organization. Working professionals can often find evening, weekend, or online classes that allow them to stay on the job while simultaneously working towards a degree.
A doctoral degree is typically not necessary, but a number of high-level healthcare administrators have one. The degree is usually in a very specific academic discipline related to organizational management or healthcare policy. There are also some administrators who come from the worlds of science and have a medical degree or some other technical background.
Having a degree is important, but it's not the only thing recruiters are looking for when courting healthcare administration professionals. To give you a sense of what experience, education, and expertise actual working professionals have, consider some recent postings for health administration jobs in Massachusetts. These positions were open as of July 2018, but there is no guarantee they are still open or that any job seeker is assured of a position:
Cancer Center Practice Manager, Palmer, MA An acute-care hospital with 150 beds is looking for a health administrator to take over daily oversight and administrative duties of its oncology department. Duties include drafting policies, supporting staff, handling customer service, and improving quality metrics. The ideal candidate has previous experience working in an oncology setting.
Director of Operations, Holyoke, MA A nursing facility for retired veterans is looking for an experienced healthcare administrator to direct daily operations. The professional in this role will specifically supervise maintenance, housekeeping, and security operations while serving as part of the leadership team. The ideal candidate has 5+ years of administrative experience, at least a bachelor's degree, and familiarity with project management.
Medicaid Operations Director, Boston, MA A call center with over 400 employees is looking to hire a health administrator to take on a key executive role. This person will oversee all aspects of operations with a particular emphasis on staying current with changes in the Massachusetts Medicaid and healthcare rules. The ideal candidate has a master's degree, 10+ years' experience managing a customer service center, and experience in healthcare administration.
Project Manager, Boston, MAA children's hospital is looking to hire a project manager to handle initiatives related to patient safety and quality. The project manager will work with physicians and stakeholders to develop guidelines, then work with staff to ensure those guidelines are implemented. The ideal candidate has a bachelor's degree in healthcare management, 5+ years of relevant experience, and a history of successful project management.
Massachusetts has a strong economy and one of the most innovative healthcare systems in the country. That is part of why demand for health administrators is growing, and it means there are a number of major employers located within the state. Job prospects are available throughout Massachusetts in both large/small and urban/rural settings. However, these are the largest healthcare administration employers in the area:
Partners HealthCare in Boston, MA
Steward Health Care System in Boston, MA
UMass Memorial Health Care in Worcester, MA
Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, MA
Bringham & Women's Hospital in Boston, MA
Phillips Healthcare in Andover, MA
Tufts Health Plan in Watertown, MA
Getting the right education and experience are important for advancing a career in healthcare administration, but so is participation in professional associations. These groups provide information, education, resources, and connections that help professionals excel at what they do while moving up the career ladder. Here are a few to consider participating in:
Healthcare Management Association of Massachusetts
American College of Healthcare Executive of Massachusetts
Massachusetts Health and Hospital Association
Massachusetts Society for Healthcare Risk Management
Massachusetts Association of Patient Account Management
Massachusetts Public Health Association
Massachusetts Association of Community Health
Massachusetts Medical Society

Appeals Court sets bail for eight PDRC core leaders at 800,000 baht each
Former Deputy Prime Minister Suthep Thaugsuban and eight core members of the People's Democratic Reform Committee (PDRC) have been granted bail, set at 800,000 baht each, by the Appeals Court after they had been detained following their convictions and sentencing in the Criminal Court this week.
Mr. Suwat Charoenpol told the media on Friday morning that the Appeals Court had granted their bail requests on the grounds that they have been granted bail before and had not attempted to flee.
He said, however, that the court decided to increase the bail surety by 200,000 baht each and ordered them not to leave the country without obtaining prior permission from the court.
The lawyer also said that the eight convicted PDRC core leaders, who were instrumental in driving the mass protests to oust the government of Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra,between November 2014 and May 2015, will be released only once the court's release warrant arrives at the Bangkok Remand Prison.
Suwat also thanked members of the public for the moral support they have offered to the eight men.
Suthep, former Education Minister Nataphol Teepsuwan, former Digital Economy and Society Minister Buddhipongse Punnakanta, former Deputy Transport Minister Thaworn Senneam, Chumphol Julasai, Phra Buddha Issara, Issara Somchai, Issara Somchai and Samdin Lertboon were found guilty by the Criminal Court of multiple offences, including illegal assembly, intrusion onto state property, inciting rebellion against the state, being members of an illegal association and inciting work stoppages.
The court dismissed terrorism and insurrection charges against them.
After leaving the prison, Suthep told his supporters and the media that the eight of them respect the Thai judicial system, but will fight to prove their innocence in the Appeals Court.
The former PDRC secretary-general said that he felt very sorry for both Nataphol and Buddhipongse "who were ministers when they walked into the courtroom in the morning, and left as sentenced convicts in the afternoon."
"The change was so abrupt and the heavy prison sentences were so unexpected," said Suthep adding, however, that he does not want to blame the court.
Nataphol was given 6 year and a 16 month prison sentences,while Buddhipongse was given seven years.
He said he also regretted that Chumphol and Issrara lost their MP status as a result of their conviction, adding that he is not sure whether they will serve time in prison, but that they are ready to face the consequences of the convictions.

A couple weeks ago, Google's Matt Cutts talked about a new iteration of Google's Panda update, which he said was already approved and would be hitting soon. The update has been commonly referred to throughout the search industry as "Panda 2.2″.
It's important to note that Google makes algorithmic adjustments every day, and sometimes even more than once a day. Obviously not all updates get the attention the Panda update has received, but you never know when some adjustment can impact your site's rankings for better or for worse.
Developing linkable content for a site has always been a great way to develop links. Instead of the typical written content I'm talking about anything online that people can link to – tools, widgets, cartoons, surveys, statistics, charts, interactive games, etc.The trick is finding the content that will attract links after you've actively promoted it. Let's explore methods of coming up with a strategy for your site, or client.
The simplest way to ensure your content will attract links is to find something already accomplishing the task. Spend time researching sites in your industry and related businesses. When examining their backlinks, make a note of what type of content is getting the good links. Then do something similar – with your own spin.
You'll notice in most cases the content with great backlinks wasn't created for the purpose of link development.
Here's a tip. If the content page has a higher PR (PageRank) than the homepage you've probably found a truly remarkable strategy. Regular readers know I rarely mention that little green bar so many are addicted too. Yet, in this instance, it can help you identity a successful strategy.
Always be on the lookout for new trends or problems facing your industry. If you're the first to create something around this you're more likely to get the links. This could be an app, online tool, widget, research, or even a cartoon poking fun of the new trend.
If you're a small company, don't be overwhelmed by the lack of resources. Keep in mind there are a wealth of talented independent contractors who can help you. This could range from a talented programmer to a creative cartoonist. Keep your options open.
Is there an old online tools that is useful yet hasn't been updated with a modern feel in five or 10 years? Would it make a great smartphone app? This is your chance to update and improve it at the same time.
Having incorrect or private URLs show up in a Google search result can be a pain. Trying to remove them is no party, either. Google has now made it a bit easier for Webmasters to remove URLs from the Google index.
The Webmaster Central team announced an update to the Remove URL tool yesterday.
Previously, the tool first required webmasters to block access to the page or file via robots.txt before it could be removed. That requirement has now changed. Google Webmaster tools requires site owners to verify their sites. So the Webmaster Tools team will now simply accept Remove URL requests. Kind of.
Once you use the tool to request a URL to be removed, Google will consider that request "temporary." This means that while Google won't display the URL in its results, GoogleBot will continue to crawl the URL for the next 90 days. During this time, you have the option to change your mind and revoke your remove URL request.
AdWords has seen quite a few tweaks and tests this year. Back in January, Google began lowercasing display URLs and testing related PPC ads, then followed up in February by increasing the length of AdWords headlines, reverting ad backgrounds to yellow, and then in March we reported on spaces on display URLs.
Keying in on relationships with your friends on Facebook, Bing have added a new set of social features to search result pages, which include more Facebook likes inside individual listings to help you find the "best results." However, Bing is including more than your friends' likes. In a video overview of the new features, Bing director Stephan Weitz cites an extended result from STar Magazine, showing interior site links and recent articles liked by groups of people.
All in all, Bing is featuring over a half dozen new ways to share results and content. Bing wants to turn search into more of a conversation. Bing believes having a conversation with someone is the best way to make a decision. According to Weitz, eighty percent of online shoppers don't make a purchase until they have asked someone about it.
Start a conversation with a shopping list. Create a shopping list and share it with your friends on Facebook.
Stories and other Web content your Facebook friends have liked with appear directly un deer search results. Bing shows the faces of up to three of your friends that like a search result or related Facebook page, offering a visual, virtual seal of approval from your trusted social network.

USPS RATE HIKES SEND SHIPPERS SCRAMBLING FOR SAVINGS
As of Jan. 27, Priority Mail Express rates from USPS increased 3.9%, while Priority Mail saw an average increase of 5.9%, higher for those using commercial-plus pricing. First Class Package Service for items under 1 lb. saw the biggest jump, at an average of 11.9%, while implementing zone-based pricing for the first time.
On the positive side, Parcel Select Ground rates – used by both UPS and FedEx for last-mile services – went down by an average of 1.3%, while Media Mail went up just 2.9%. Also, the USPS delayed implementation of a reduction in its dimensional weight divisor from 194 to 166 until June 23, to allow shippers more time to adjust. A lower divisor means more packages that "DIM out" and get hit with a higher billed weight.
Rob Zaleski, digital content and brand manager for shipping software firm ShippingEasy, said his company is not seeing merchant shippers fleeing from USPS to UPS and FedEx as a result of the postal rate spike, since both implemented average general rate increases (GRIs) of 4.9% for 2019, in addition to numerous accessorial and fuel surcharge increases. ShippingEasy publishes an annual guide to shipping rates from the major carriers.
"A lot of times you find the USPS rates are still coming in under the carriers," Zaleski said. "Especially if a shipper has some leeway in delivery times, Priority Mail wins, either flat rate or a regular rate box is often way under FedEx and UPS. We're not seeing a mad dash away from USPS, but people are definitely upset that rates are going up again."
To illustrate the impact of the new USPS pricing, Zaleski said an 11 oz. package shipped from Houston to Miami, which cost $3.66 last year, is now a Zone 5 shipment costing $3.96. Also, a 5 oz. package going from New York to Los Angeles increased from $2.79 to $3.63.
"Shipping from LA, half the country is now Zone 5 or above," Zaleski said. "LA shippers are definitely seeing an uptick in costs. Shippers are trying to minimize excess packaging or use smaller boxes, any way they can cut down the weight to lessen the effect. The good news is that Zones 1 and 2 are pretty similar to 2018."
Shippers will also face a major adjustment when the USPS DIM factor is adjusted down in June, Zaleski said, something they've grown accustomed to with UPS and FedEx.
"They have to be smarter and find ways to fit products into boxes as closely as possible," he said. "When possible, they should use flat rate or regular rate boxes and see substantial savings. The more DIM goes down, the more it's costing them – it's something they haven't had to think about as much with the USPS."
Tim Sailor, owner of Navigo Consulting Group, said USPS was basically trying to mirror moves that UPS and FedEx were making, having held off on major increases for several years.
"The increases are right in line with what FedEx and UPS are doing, and where they've taking the marketplace," Sailor said. "I've always been a firm believer that the USPS needs to be part of any shipper's distribution mix. They're effective in a number of areas, starting with First Class mail.
Sailor said in one recent client project, 45% of the company's shipping volume was under 1 lb., so by converting to First Class it was able to save almost 60% on its shipping costs.
While First Class Package Service is going up an average of 11.9%, that increase will be substantially higher for shippers with higher zone profiles, according to an analysis by Gordon Glazer of Shipware.
"Shippers with a high Zone 8 profile, very common with only a single distribution center on one of the coasts, will see a 21% increase," Glazer wrote. "This will entice those to consider opening a second DC or use third-party fulfillment options. For example, Amazon should see an increase in its FBA programs."

Blackjewel under investigation for fraud
CASPER — The unprecedented bankruptcy case involving coal operator Blackjewel showed signs of resolution last week when a federal judge approved the sale of two Wyoming coal mines to a new company called Eagle Specialty Materials. But a court document filed Saturday revealed the federal government has been investigating Blackjewel for potential fraud since before the company filed for bankruptcy, adding another possible wrinkle to a case that has rattled Wyoming's coal country for over three months.
"The United States was investigating potential violations of the False Claims Act by Debtor, Blackjewel, LLC, and had issued a subpoena to Blackjewel in connection with that investigation," Fred Westfall, a U.S. attorney stated in court documents.
The federal government asked the West Virginia federal bankruptcy court to delay discharging Blackjewel of its debts, a move that would allow the federal government to continue investigating possible violations of the False Claims Act.
The False Claims Act holds corporations that defraud the government liable.
"The idea behind the law is (a company) should not be able to use bankruptcy to defraud the government out of debts owed to the government," Joshua Macey, a law professor at Cornell University, studying bankruptcy laws, told the Star-Tribune.
Once the sale of a handful of its coal mines are finalized, Blackjewel will liquidate, or cease to exist in the court's eyes. The technical conclusion of the Chapter 11 bankruptcy case makes pursuing an ongoing investigation, or repayment, against the company much more difficult, Macey explained.
The complaint and ongoing investigation will likely not affect the purchase of Eagle Butte and Belle Ayr mines, approved by the court Wednesday, according to Macey. But the federal government will probably not be able to recover the $50 million owed in royalties and rent. About half of federal mineral royalties flow back to the state of Wyoming. According to the sales agreement, the new owner will acquire the mines free and clear of most outstanding debt obligations.
"I don't really see repayment happening, but (the federal government) is leaving its options open," Macey said. "If Blackjewel goes away (liquidates), the government will not be able to recover money from Blackjewel and will have to try to get paid from (purchasers or creditors). This is very hard to do."
Blackjewel filed for bankruptcy on July 1. After failing to obtain funding from a key creditor, the insolvent company shut down its mining operations, including two Wyoming facilities employing about 600 workers. In the ensuing months, Blackjewel struggled to find a long-term lender to front the cash to cover the mine operating costs throughout the bankruptcy proceedings. When the company pivoted to auction off its assets, it also hit roadblocks.
Coal company Contura Energy, the former owner and current permit holder of the Eagle Butte and Belle Ayr mines, claimed the winning bid. But negotiations with the federal government foundered, with disagreements over leasing terms and millions of dollars in unpaid mineral royalties.
As hundreds of out-of-work miners awaited news on a new employer to resurrect the mines to full operation, discussions between the companies stretched from days into weeks. On Sept. 18, Contura announced to stakeholders its intent to exit the Powder River Basin for good and find another buyer for the Wyoming coal mines.
Contura struck a deal with Eagle Specialty Materials, an affiliate of FM Coal. Contura agreed to pay the new company $90 million as start-up capital to take over the mines and assume any clean-up obligations. In turn, Eagle Specialty Materials will play Blackjewel $16.2 million for the mines.
A federal court approved the sale of the mines to Eagle Specialty Materials, but a closing date has not been announced.
The most senior secured creditor, Riverstone Credit Partners, will receive $32 million from Blackjewel, according to the approved sales agreement. Any additional assets Blackjewel holds will trickle down to other creditors.
"Bankruptcy law is so geared to protecting investors that any other interest group -- workers, taxpayers, clean up — gets swept aside. Riverstone gets out relatively unscathed," explained Clark Williams-Derry, director of energy finance at the Sightline Institute, an environmental think tank. "Riverstone is still getting paid. What that means is bankruptcy law says if you're an investor, the law will protect you. If you're a taxpayer the law doesn't protect you."
Blackjewel and an attorney for the U.S. federal government did not immediately return requests for comment.
Given the ongoing nature of the investigation, the U.S. government has requested the court extend the window for complaints, and therefore the time before Blackjewel's debts are wiped away, until Dec. 4, according to court documents filed Saturday.

The world is experiencing two important demographic shifts: people are living longer and our population is becoming more diverse. A growing aging population results in major implications for health systems, families, and the economy. In the United States, 80 percent of people over the age of 65 are white. By 2050, that percentage will drop to 59 while the number of Asians and Hispanics in this age group will triple.
At the intersection of these two major public health changes lies the research of School of Public Health Assistant Professor Tetyana Shippee. She's working to help answer a very large question: How can we make care toward the end of life a more positive experience, regardless of race, ethnicity, or culture?
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services projects that 70 percent of Americans over the age of 65 will need some form of long-term care, which includes a spectrum of facilities from assisted living to nursing homes. The number of people in this age group is expected to more than double by the time the last baby boomer reaches 65 in 2030.
Shippee became interested in gerontology research while studying as an international student from Ukraine at Lee University in Tennessee. Later while in graduate school at Purdue University, she lived in a long-term care facility for two years. Among daily meals and card games with residents, she became curious about how they gauged their own happiness and found that quality of life had the greatest impact.
Shippee with Eleanor McKay, a fellow resident at the long-term care facility where Shippee lived during graduate school.
While previous research into long-term care facilities has mostly focused on quality of care, Shippee is shedding light on the importance of quality of life, which includes everything from staff interactions to the friendships among residents. "Many of the people in these facilities can't be 'cured' from underlying health issues, so their quality of life matters tremendously," she says.
Today, the majority of people in U.S. long-term care facilities are white, which is apparent in the language spoken (primarily English) and in the food served (think potatoes and casseroles). But by 2030, it's expected that there proportionately will be more residents from other ethnicities and cultures. "We need to better understand these groups and make sure that they have a voice in their care," says Shippee.
Currently, the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) interviews nearly 15,000 nursing home residents every year about their quality of life. But historically, residents are sampled randomly and a very small percentage of those interviewed come from minority populations.
But Shippee is working with DHS to change that. Starting in 2015, minority residents were over-sampled for interviews, to ensure that their voices are heard and represented. DHS also interviewed residents in languages other than English for the very first time. This data allows Shippee to identify quality of life measures within minority groups and to truly tell how facilities can help these residents.
Shippee's work is also expanding to keep up with the changing model of elderly care. She collaborated with MN DHS to develop a first-of-its-kind tool to measure quality of life in 90-day "rehab" stays at nursing homes that are covered by Medicare. "Quality of life measures like relationships aren't as important to these residents who are primarily focused on recovery and going back home, so we need to know more about what is important to them," she says.


PESHAWAR, Sep 23 2011 (IPS) - With Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province turning into the 'polio capital of the world', authorities are warning parents that heeding Taliban propaganda against oral polio vaccination (OPV) could earn them a prison sentence.
"The problem of refusal has become serious and it has been decided to initiate action against the people involved in campaigning against OPV drives," district coordination officer Siraj Ahmad Khan told IPS.
Last year, Pakistan earned the status of the world's worst polio-endemic country after 144 cases surfaced, 96 of them in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the adjacent Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). The victims included 50 children who were not immunised due to parental objections.
The administrations in these two territories, which border Afghanistan, will now follow a strategy of using religious leaders to persuade parents to cooperate on the one hand and using the force of the law on the other.
The government showed it meant business by deporting the family of an Afghan child who tested positive on Sep. 7. "Afghan families staying in the province are spreading the virus," Khan said.
Afghanistan has problems very similar to that in the FATA and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa with Taliban militants in that country opposing OPV drives.
An outbreak of polio in 2010 in the areas of Tajikistan along Afghanistan's northern borders, which left 500 children paralysed, was seen as an example of how rapidly the virus spreads.
This year, Pakistan is once again leading the tally with 83 cases among the three top polio-endemic countries. Nigeria, which follows with 23 cases, and Afghanistan, with 12, are also influenced by religious beliefs against vaccination.
Polio, which spreads in areas with poor sanitation, attacks the nervous system of children under the age of four, resulting in permanent paralysis of one or more limbs within hours of infection.
Dr. Jan Baz Afridi, polio officer in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, says that currently 16,000 children have not been administered OPV in the province due to refusal by parents.
One strategy being adopted is to point out that the government of Saudi Arabia, a country which commands respect among the faithful, has made it compulsory for those undertaking the Haj pilgrimage to get vaccinated, even if they are older than five years of age.
Further, some of the ulema (religious experts) were convinced enough to issue fatwas (religious edict) to say that OPV was not only safe but also the only way to save children from a crippling disease.
Tackling refusals became a priority after Pakistan came under pressure from the United Nations and other donor agencies to ensure that the OPV drives succeeded, said Afridi.
These agencies have been spending about five million dollars each year on the OPV drives as part of the Polio Eradication Initiative of the World Health Organisation (WHO) launched in 1994.
The international programme suffered a setback in 2009 when the Taliban took control over the Swat valley of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and used radio broadcasts to spread the idea that OPV caused infertility.
"By giving OPV to the children we not only safeguard children against poliomyelitis but also stop circulation of the virus," said Farooq, explaining the global strategy of inducing 'herd immunity' against the virus.
"The fact that refusals are actually resulting in polio infections is proof for many that OPV is the only protection that the children get against polio," Farooq said.
Afridi said that the strategy of taking legal action and roping in religious leaders was already beginning to pay off as refusal cases have come down from 26,000 to 16,000 over the last six months.
"We have also greatly strengthened our reporting system to ensure that every child is accounted for," Afridi said.

Athlete Spotlight: Lenda Murray, 8-Time Ms. Olympia Champion
When an NFL cheerleading career didn't pan out, Lenda Murray found success and purpose as a world-class bodybuilder.
by Lenda Murray
Previous story Do Steroids Cause Women to Grow a Penis? Next story How and When to Use Forced Reps
It's an early spring morning. As I sit on my porch meditating and enjoying my view of Los Angeles, I contemplate the journey of my life. I reflect with gratitude on what a blessed life I've lived. Combing through the memories of my career in bodybuilding, I ponder many things: the questions people ask me about my eight Ms. Olympia titles, what inspired me to pursue a career in bodybuilding, and what life as a champion is like after the applause ends.
I was introduced to the world of women's bodybuilding when I found a copy of Joe Weider's Muscle & Fitness magazine on a high school bus. Curiously flipping from page to page, I came across a picture of Carla Dunlap, the reigning Ms. Olympia champion. I had never seen such incredible upper-body muscularity on a woman. Interested and intrigued, I found this type of strength in a woman to be attractive. At that time in the late 1970s, female bodybuilders had the level of muscularity that we see on figure competitors today. My ambitious nature encouraged me to think outside the box, and my curiosity peaked as I contemplated how I would look if I were to train with weights. Little did I know that fate would soon intervene to answer that question.
As a young lady growing up in Detroit, education and athletics were my top priorities. My main goal in life was to graduate from college, and my second goal was to be a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. In 1984, I graduated from Western Michigan University, accomplishing my first goal. And when I made the cut as one of 45 girls selected for the upcoming Dallas Cowboys season, it appeared I was well on my way to my second goal. However, due to a conflict of interest between the NFL and the USFL Michigan Panthers, I was told to return the following year. I was also told to lose weight before returning for the next NFL season. The problem, however, was that I was athletic, not overweight. A bodybuilding analogy would be that I had the muscle mass of a physique competitor, versus a bikini competitor.
I was disappointed to see the door closing on my dreams of professional cheerleading—but a new and marvelous adventure was about to begin for me. I decided to embrace the physique I was given and enter the world of women's bodybuilding. After a few years competing in local contests, I turned pro in 1989. I also had the fortunate opportunity to be introduced to Joe Weider, the man whose magazine I found on that bus back in high school. I went on to win six consecutive Ms. Olympia titles. I then retired from the sport for five years to pursue business and entrepreneurial interests. But in 2002, at age 40, I returned to the competitive arena to compete for and win the Ms. Olympia title two more times, making me an eight-time Ms. Olympia title winner.
Retirement from competition has been good to me. I currently produce two IFBB Pro League Olympia-qualifier shows and three NPC National-qualifier shows, being held on July 13 in Norfolk, VA, August 17 in Detroit, MI, and an exciting addition just announced for April 2020 in Savannah, GA. The most rewarding part of being a contest promoter is sending pro athletes to the Olympia stage and pro female bodybuilders to the IFBB Professional League Wings of Strength Rising Phoenix World Championship. As the main sponsor of my events, Wings of Strength has helped make them all great successes. And for the first time in 2019, Wings of Strength is sponsoring the Olympia Weekend.
Currently, I'm the owner of Crystal Planet Nutrition, the spokeswoman for Wings of Strength, and a senior editor at Digital Muscle. I am excited about what the future holds for the women of bodybuilding, and I'm embracing all the wonderful opportunities the sport has given me.
