	ATSDR- COMPARISON OF DIOXIN SUBREGISTRY BASELINE
		Baseline and identifying information was collected using the Health Effects Survey (HES) questionnaire constructed to elicit, along with health information, information on exposure risk (that is, residential history; type, frequency, and duration of recreational activities; and occupational history).
		For the baseline activities, information was obtained for 250 persons (246 living and 4 deceased); for the first followup, 226 persons (221 living and 5 deceased); and for the second followup, 208 persons (203 living and 5 deceased).
		A year or more before the baseline interview, a registrant might have been told that he or she had (or was treated for) one of these 12 health conditions, but was not being treated at the time of the interview.

		The baseline characteristics of the study population and those whose follow-up data on life satisfaction was not available at all three data collection times is presented in Table 1.
		The ability of baseline life satisfaction to predict future life satisfaction was strong, but decreased during the follow-up period, which is a trend that has also been suggested previously [23].
		The exclusion criteria for baseline health disorders were comprehensive and based on both self-reports and several national registries with high coverage and validity [38-41].

	Baseline Lake....Big Rainbows And Brown Trout On The Fly
		Baseline fish average 18" to 20" while fish tipping the scales over (10) ten pounds are common.
		Because Baseline was structured with a shallow sandy bottom, the trout, that will exceed 12 pounds, unable to make deep dives, erupt in a energetic bursts across the lake, creating an effect very similar to Pacific Northwest Steelhead.
		Baseline is constantly fed by a fresh ground water well at a consistent 54° on the south end of the lake, which has provided a healthy vegetation growth through the lake.

		When that baseline was declared, it was expected that a collection of word lists would be published shortly thereafter in lieu of a dictionary, that upon that publication, the documented lexicon would be baselined, and the combination of lexicon and reference grammar would be frozen for a minimum of 5 years while language usage grew.
		Baselines are declared so that everyone has a single image of what the standard for the language is, for purposes of discussion and usage.

		CBO's baseline is the benchmark against which it estimates the cost of proposals to raise or cut federal spending, and the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) uses CBO's baseline projections for revenues as the benchmark for its estimates of tax bills.
		CBO's baseline assumes that federal tax laws and entitlement programs remain unchanged, and that discretionary spending (that is, spending appropriated for non-entitlement programs, such as defense and domestic programs) grows at the rate of inflation.
		At this point, however, CBO's baseline presents a serious problem for policymakers: It is not useful as a rough forecast of federal spending and revenues.

		Subjects in both primary and secondary prevention were recruited across a wide spectrum of baseline cholesterol levels, thus providing a wealth of new information on the benefits of statin treatment in a group of elderly subjects with a very high risk of coronary and cerebrovascular events.

	Baseline Correction
		FB also has the option of correcting the baseline by forcing each region to be flat by removing DC and tilt separately for each region.
		More reproducible baseline correction can be obtained, useful in defining a protocol for processing QC data, to insure that the same conditions are used each time.
		The recommended procedure is to examine slices using View (VW) to determine which regions represent "good" baseline throughout the dataset, and then use FB to select those regions and create a mask.

	ERS/USDA Briefing Room - Agricultural Baseline Projections: USDA Baseline Process
		The baseline is also used to develop cost estimates for the President's budget and to analyze impacts of alternative policy scenarios.
		In particular, the baseline incorporates provisions of the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 (2002 Farm Act) and assumes that current farm legislation remains in effect through the projections period.
		As such, the baseline is a neutral backdrop, reference scenario that provides a point of departure for discussion of alternative farm sector outcomes that could result under different domestic or international assumptions.

		The Baseline forecast, although it does not appear here, is a crucial intermediate step in creating a player's forecast.
		The Baseline forecast is also significant in that it attempts to remove luck from a forecast line.
		In addition, the Baseline corrects for large disparities between a pitcher's ERA and his PERA, and an unusually high or low hit rate on balls in play, which are highly subject to luck.

	Centrists.Org: No-BS Long-Term Budget Baseline (Jan. 2004)
		Centrists.Org's new baseline is mostly unchanged from the previous projections, which were issued in August 2003.
		This baseline assumes that the answer is "No," and that discretionary spending continues to grow at the same rate as GDP (the assumption we used all last year, which actually undershot spending trends a little).
		Specifically, the Centrists.Org baseline now equals the CBO baseline, plus CBO's estimate of the revenue and debt service costs of extending expiring tax cuts and CBO's estimate of holding the growth of discretionary (non-entitlement) spending at the same rate of growth as nominal GDP.
