	Expanded Polystyrene Foam (EPF) - Background, Raw Materials, Design, The Manufacturing, Quality Control

	Should EPF interest rates be lowered?
		Clearly, for the EPF organisation (EPFO), it is a challenging task to balance the interest rate it offers to its subscribers and the yield it earns on the investment of its corpus.
		Even now the government guidelines to the EPF on its investment pattern are aimed at securing in the government kitty the bulk of accretions to the EPF funds.
		By seeking a higher rate of interest on EPF, the trade unions are not asking for any undue reward or favour; they only seek from the government an adequate real rate of return to the members of the salaried class for the compulsory impounding of their hard-earned savings.

	Should EPF interest rates go down?
		Today's EPF rate is 9.5 per cent, and while inflation rates go up and down, the average for the year in 2002-03, was 3.3 per cent.
		Because the EPF represents comprehensive social security, I think it should be de-linked from the so-called interest rate regime that applies to the government's commercial activity.
		Everyone has to understand that EPF is a fund meant for people to sustain themselves in the evening of their lives.

	Debating The Merits Of The EPF Procedure
		When the EPF was introduced, I was appalled at the fees Dr. Barrett was attempting to (charge) to teach this procedure.
		However, since the technique was introduced formally to the profession in 1992, there has been much more attention brought to the condition of heel pain and plantar fasciitis than had been paid to the topic in the prior 20 years.
		Prior to EPF, some patients were subjected to more than two years of failed conservative care because of old “dogma” in some texts and articles.

	CBT to decide on EPF rate soon
		Evading the finance ministry's pressure for a cut in EPF rate from the present 9.5 per cent in the light of falling interest rate, Labour Minister Sahib Singh Verma, who is the chairman of CBT, has been saying he was not in favour of any cut and the sub-committee would decide on it.
		It is understood that the sub-committee had weighed all options, especially in the wake of one per cent cut in interest rate of special deposit schemes, which comprise over 80 per cent of the Rs 1,40,000 crore (Rs 1,400 billion) EPF corpus.
		Finance ministry sources said the present 9.5 per cent was not sustainable due to lack of interest rates on savings instruments, especially after the centre aligned the interest rates in the economy to the yields from government securities.

		EPF surgery involves cutting a portion of the plantar fascia, as a result scar tissue can form and basically cause the cut ends to "reattach" causing tightness of the plantar fascia.
		What is soooo strange is that no one is ever at fault, no accountability what so ever and the patients are sent to pain clinics to control unbearable pain for the rest of their life.
		I have insurance, but it only pays 80% and a lot of these procedures like 2 EPF's on one foot are not covered for the same thing twice.

	NYNJTC: NY State Budget and EPF Funding
		In addition, the EPF was left out of the baseline budget passed in the fall of 2001 and the deficiency budget that was passed in March 2002.
		This amount will account for $125 million in EPF funding that was left out of the 2001-02 budget and another $125 million for the EPF in the 2002-03 budget.
		We believe the Governor’s proposed sweep of $100 million from the EPF to the General Fund should instead be reinvested in open space acquisition, state parks, farm preservation and state land stewardship.
