Man charged with Wal-Mart arson
Date: June 6, 2009
by: The Observer Staff
Manatee County Sheriff's Office deputies arrested a Louisiana man for setting fire to an East County Wal-Mart Thursday.
According to sheriff's office reports, at about 4:10 p.m., June 4, deputies and firefighters from the Southern Manatee Fire District responded to a fire at the Wal-Mart at 2911 53rd Ave E. Upon arrival, deputies discovered that Phillip R. Wright, of Monroe, La., attempted to return items at the store. When he was unsuccessful, he proceeded to the men's department and set three clothes racks on fire. He then left the store in a tan pickup truck.
Other Wal-Mart stores in the area were notified to be on the lookout for this subject. At around 6:15 p.m., deputies responded to the Wal-Mart at 8320 Lockwood Ridge Road because a man fitting the description of the subject entered the store.
Deputies arrested Wright and charged him with Arson with other charges possible. A subject who was in the truck with Wright is being questioned but has not been charged at this time.
No one was injured as a result of the fire, however there was substantial damage to the store.

LANSING (WKZO) -- The walkway between the state Capitol building and the Michigan Hall of Justice now bears the name of the longest-serving attorney general in the country. Frank Kelley served as Michigan's 50th attorney general from 1961 to 1999, and had been nicknamed the "Eternal General."
Kelley was the state's youngest-ever top police officer at 36 when he was first elected and its oldest at 74 when he decided to not seek reelection. He was succeeded in office by Jennifer Granholm, who used it as a launching pad to become governor.

OWENSBORO, Ky. - Glenn Maxwell Mills (Fat Daddy), born May 24, 1937 in Barbourville, KY to the late Eugene Mills and Mabel Hoskins Mills went to play on Jesus team Sunday, September 1st.
Glenn loved, kids and sports. He dedicated many years of service to local youth sports serving in positions from coach to league president at Southern Little League, Owensboro Babe Ruth, Pop Warner Football, West Daviess County Little League, and Royal Ambassadors Track and Basketball at Lewis Lane Baptist Church. Prior to a stroke in 2004, he could be found most nights watching a game at one of the local fields.
Glenn graduated from both Kentucky Wesleyan College and Brescia College. He served on the Board of Directors for the Girls and Boys Club, was a president for the 16-18 year old Babe Ruth Baseball League, served as president for the West Daviess County Little League. He was a member of TPA, Owensboro Chamber of Commerce and the KWC All American Club. He held a master license in HVAC and was the owner of M&C Heating and Air. As an active charter member at Lewis Lane Baptist Church he served as a deacon, a lay minister, Sunday school superintendent, youth leader, RA Leader, greeter and usher as well as on several committees. He was an avid fan of the KWC Panthers, UK Basketball and Football and the Cincinnati Reds. He was watching a Reds game on TV up to the minute the ambulance arrived to take him on his final trip to the hospital.
Glenn attended Berea College where he met and married his devoted wife of 57 years, Shirley. He is survived by Shirley, his children Kaye Varvel (Dewayne), Max Mills (Sheila) of Owensboro and Tommy Mills (Kim) of Lexington; his grandchildren Bridget Prusz (Andy) of Owensboro, Kim Cox McDaniel (Brian) of Evansville, Josh Cox, Meg Mills and Matt Mills of Lexington, Byron and Kalea Varvel of Bremen; and great grandchildren Jackson, Brady and Mason Prusz of Owensboro. He is also survived by siblings Doloris Eskridge (JB) or Hartford, Judy Trail of Owensboro and Jim Mills (Kay) of Fort Wayne, IN.
Services will be at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday in the Chapel of James H. Davis Funeral Home & Crematory. Burial will follow in Oakwood Cemetery in Hartford. Visitation will be on Wednesday from 5:00-8:00 and after 9:00 a.m. Thursday at the funeral home.
The family requests that expressions of sympathy be made to a local church's children's program, youth group or play-ground of your choice. Glenn always wanted to help the kids in any way that he could and we wish to continue that dream.
We would like to thank all those that have cared for Glenn during the years since his stroke: Dr. Keeley, Dr. Havelda, Dr. Garimella, Dr. Shaw, Dr. Ross, Dr. Haira, the staff and providers at Wound Healing, Angie and Kathy from home health and our 'adopted sister in love ' Kim Day who has helped encourage him daily.

This flavors my coffee and sweetens it at the same time. It's delicious. If there were one thing I could change about it, it would be the size of the top of the bottle. It's very thick and seems to get on the outside of the bottle easily. Otherwise, it's totally wonderful stuff1

Great Product; Poor Cap/Dropper Unit

Posted by Reviewer3158324 on Oct 26, 2010
Purchased at iHerb
The product itself is of good quality and flavorful. It's thicker than other stevia glycerites I've used, and darker colored. Unfortunately the plastic cap/dropper assembly will not remain properly screwed closed (you can actually watch it unscrew itself a little once you let go of the cap!). The dropper itself is also plastic (other brands use glass droppers) and it does not hold the liquid in properly. I got way too much of the extract the first time I tried to use some because it just ran out of the dropper into my cup. Not sure if this is just a faulty unit or if it's a design issue. Thus the four instead of five stars.

good hazelnut flavor

Posted by Reviewer1577866 on Nov 04, 2011
Purchased at iHerb
I found this item to be thinner than the Glycerite type but still pretty thick. I will still be adding a bit of water to it to make it easier to handle. And it does add the flavor of hazelnut to my coffee. I'm pleased about that. However, if adding water dilutes the flavor, I'll be using far more than usual.

Icelandic Collection
Slavic Collection
Government Publications and Data Library Services
Microform Collection
Icelandic Collection
Unique in Canadian university libraries, The Icelandic Collection contains nearly 27,000 volumes. It is the largest collection of Icelandic materials in Canada and the second largest in North America. This "area studies" collection serves as a primary research tool for the study of Icelandic language, literature, history and culture, while enabling the Icelandic community to preserve, reinforce and cultivate its cultural identity in the North American cultural mosaic.
The nucleus of The Collection was the Arnljotur Bjornsson Olson library of 1,300 volumes, which was presented to the University of Manitoba in 1936 by Mr. Olson of Gimli. The future of The Collection was assured in 1939, when the Government of Iceland designated The Collection as an official depository of all Icelandic publications. This continued in varying degrees until 1978, when The Collection was redesignated as a selective depository. Meanwhile, the University of Manitoba Libraries, recognizing The Collection's value and research potential, assumed an increased responsibility for funding The Collection, so that it might continue to receive most books, periodicals, and newspapers published in Iceland.
Collection Holdings
The Collection includes books, periodicals, newspapers, and manuscript & multimedia materials. Icelandic is the primary language of The Collection. Selected items in English, the other Scandinavian languages, the Romance languages and German are included. Geographically The Collection covers mainly Iceland, but also includes publications dealing with Scandinavia, Greenland, the Faroe Islands, and the Arctic, and acquires available material by and about Icelanders in North America. Among The Collections prized possessions are the personal libraries of two of the Icelandic-Canadian community's foremost poets, Stephan G. Stephansson and Guttormur J. Guttormsson.
Borrowing Information
Items in The Icelandic Collection are listed in the Library Catalogue (BISON). Reference books, periodicals, rare and/or fragile items, and manuscript materials do not circulate. Circulating materials are checked out at the circulation desk, located on the main floor of the Library.

Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
The Slavic Collection
The Slavic Collection is a separate language collection of over 56,000 volumes of books, periodicals, newspapers and microforms. It is located on the second floor of the Elizabeth Dafoe Library. The Collection, one of the best in Canada, contains material on a wide range of subjects, mainly in humanities and social sciences. Most material is in Russian, Ukrainian and Polish, although all fourteen languages are represented.
The Slavic Collection supports courses and research in the Department of German & Slavic Studies, the Centre for Ukrainian Canadian Studies, Central and East European Studies, and other departments. In addition, the Collection complements the Archives of the Ukrainian Canadian Experience, which is housed in the University of Manitoba Archives & Special Collections. Materials are also used by multilingual members of the university community and general public.
The majority of the catalogued material is listed in the Library Cataloguy (BISON). BISON lists Cyrillic titles in the Latin alphabet, using the Library of Congress transliteration system. Materials located in the Slavic Collection are distinguished by the prefix Slav in the call number.
Periodicals, reference materials, rare books and fragile books do not circulate. Any other items in the collection may be borrowed for 60 days at the Circulation Counter on the main floor of the library. If you require assistance in locating materials, please consult the staff of the Slavic Collection: Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Evenings, Saturdays and Sundays please ask for assistance at the Reference Desk on the main floor of the library.

Brisbane Airport is the only Australian airport named in this year's Skytrax ranking of airports around the world, coming in at number 18, it was the only Australian airport found within the top 20.
Within the Southern Hemisphere, Brisbane's 18th position still lags behind Auckland Airport's number ninth position, while the best airport in the world went to Singapore's Changi Airport.
Singapore has returned to the top spot of Best Airport in the World, according to Skytrax voters, after slipping to third last year and ousting the 2009 winner of Incheon in South Korea.
"This was yet again an extremely competitive survey, and with over 9.8 million completed survey interviews, it was a very close finish with Singapore Changi edging ahead from Incheon International Airport, to take the 2010 title as World's Best Airport," said Edward Plaisted, Skytrax Chairman.
Of the award, Lee Seow Hiang, Changi Airport Group CEO, remarked, "We are honoured to receive the Skytrax World's Best Airport award and thank everyone for their vote of confidence."
Asian Airports dominated the top 20, with the top three airports being Singapore, Seoul and Hong Kong, and six airports in the top ten were found in Asia.

Evaluation Criteria for Web Development
At topseos, the independent authority on search vendors, we have done the research into the best web development practices. Since launching in 2002, our research and rankings only show companies that have proven they are the best. No company should have to go through redevelopment, and topseos can help make sure you will find a company that can meet the needs of your site. Companies on our list have excelled in process, standard compliance, scalability, size and security, and maintenance.
The first component analyzed by us is the web development process of the vendor. How does the vendor organize work that needs to be completed? Does the vendor properly identify the needed variables for each piece of the project to ensure there are not compatibility issues?
Next we evaluate whether the code meets standards compliance. What type of coding standards does the development team use and how well does the code match up to those standards?
Another important aspect of web development is the scalability of the site. Does the development work completed allow for the continued growth and adjustment of the site? If additional development is needed is the code being commented properly for another development team to work on?
We also assess how secure the scripting is. Does the code have any vulnerability that could allow hackers to use the site maliciously? Are sales or leads records secured?
Lastly we rate the ease of maintenance on the site. If there are corrections or changes that need to be made to database information, is there an administrative interface that allows those changes to be made or would added development work need to be completed?
A few questions we may ask clients of these firms are:
General Queries:
- What type of needs analysis was conducted before work initiated?
- What type of a ROI were you anticipating, what was achieved and in what time frame?
- What would be 3 things you would change about your experience?
- What was your total investment?
- Rate your overall experience (1-10; 10 being the highest).
Project Specific Queries:
- What content management system, MVC frameworks, standards were considered prior to coding?
- How often were you advised of the progress of development and how were you able to review the work and offer your input?
- How much time in % was spent on quality assurance in the project lifecycle? How much of your personal involvement was required in this process?
- What SEO components were recognized and chosen for consideration in development?
- How well were the developers versed on the latest development techniques? Can you give an example that would evidence that based on your rating?

Chair's Message
September is the "Get Ready" month. For APHA members, "Get Ready" is a campaign focusing on the importance of being prepared for many of life's unexpected happenings. I encourage members to explore the valuable information that APHA has available for personal use as well as to share with the communities in which you are a part of. Here's the link: Get Ready
"Get Ready" also pertains to our upcoming Denver meeting. It's not too late to join us. Go to Meeting Registration. Hotel reservations through the APHA meeting planners are available through Oct. 14. Denver this time of year is a beautiful city to visit with the aspens having their yellow coats on and hopefully the snow only being seen on the high peaks.
The Podiatric Health Section's programming has great diversity this year and should spark further discussion about the role of podiatry in public health initiatives. Our Section meeting is on Monday, Nov. 8 at an eye-opening 6:30 a.m. All members are invited and encouraged to join us at the Hyatt Hotel in Mineral Hall E. We will have plenty of coffee and light breakfast treats to start your day off with.
Following my message is a full listing of our section's sponsored presentations that will be on Tuesday, Nov. 9. Kudos to Jim Christina, our section's program chair, for taking charge and assuring that our sponsored presentations are representative of the multifaceted interests that make up our profession. It's especially hopeful in seeing that several of the presenters are students or residents.
I have been honored to serve as your section's chair and already know that the individual who is following me has great leadership skills and ideas for the Section. Jim DiResta has been working in his home state to create a model for podiatric public health and the chair elect, Emily Cook, and Section Secretary, Jeremy Cook, will provide the expertise and energy to continue the work that is vital for podiatry in the public health realm. I've promised not to become a ghost after the Denver meeting, for I know that our section needs continuing commitment. Our membership numbers continue to slide downward. I am optimistic that the work that is being done to bring the public health message to our profession's students and residents will hopefully provide the boost in membership that will keep our section a section in the APHA family.
I will repeat my challenge to our section members to sponsor student memberships. Student memberships are a very reasonable $60. We've established a grant fund that APMA supervises. Checks for student memberships can be sent to APMA (9312 Old Georgetown Rd., Bethesda, MD 20814-1621). Indicate on the check that it is for APHA Student Memberships.
In closing, I hope to see many of you in Denver. Please drop me an e-mail informing me that you are attending, thus allowing me to include you in our dinner outings that have become a pleasant tradition of these annual meetings.

Low back pain/radiculopathy and its impact on health care costs. Need for early assessment and treatment to avoid future disability
Sandra R. Gotman DPM, Miami, Fla.
Burning on the bottom of the foot/feet is an early sign of lower extremity radiculopathy. The podiatrist is usually the first health care provider the patient will consult. Lumbro-sacral-radiculopathy causes muscle weakness of the lower extremities as a result of nerve compression at the lumbro-sacral level, and affects one's ability to walk. Exercise is an imperative part of a healthy regimen. Therefore, the public needs to be made aware of this problem early on. The information would be made available to the general public with inclusion of how to recognize signs and symptoms, and seek treatment from health care providers. This education combined with conservative therapy on various levels would ultimately help these people avert worsening of this condition, and prevent subsequent disability. Over 20 years in practice, I have diagnosed too many patients with radiculopathy. I have become acutely aware that as the U.S. population ages, most elderly patients need to ambulate with the assistance of canes, walkers, wheelchairs and scooters. We tend to be a society of cars, and are in predominantly seated positions. The sitting position is very stressful on the lumbro-sacral spine. As a whole we do very little walking unless we are going to a gym, or incorporating it in our daily activities as exercise. This is a public health issue and needs to be remedied because not only does it affect the quality of life, but also incurs tremendous costs on the health care system.
Learning Areas:
Clinical medicine applied in public health
Learning Objectives:
Identify lumbro-sacral radiculopathy early on via clinical assessment and nerve conduction studies of the lower extremity. Formulate treatment involving patient education, and implementation of lumbro-sacral ergonomics in order to prevent future disablities.

Exposure to High Levels of Fluoride in the Ground Water of the Ethiopian Rift Valley Results In Lower Extremity Skeletal Fluorosis & Neuropathy
Kelly Powers, DPM, 2010 and MS, Environmental Management, 2010
New York College of Podiatric Medicine (NYCPM) and University of San Francisco (USF), New York, NY
High concentrations of fluoride in the ground water of the Ethiopian Rift Valley results in lower extremity skeletal fluorosis & neuropathy. It has been noted that the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends a guideline maximum fluoride exposure value of 1.5mg/L in consumed drinking water. However, in the Ethiopian Rift Valley ground water fluoride levels far exceed these sanctions. The water ingested by the people of certain Ethiopian communities contains levels considered toxic to human health. The Rift Valley is of particular concern because of the substantial geothermal activity in the ground water. Thus affecting nearby lakes, hot springs, and rivers.
Chronic exposure of high levels of fluoride has been shown to manifest as skeletal fluorosis (SF). SF is a crippling pathological condition in which accumulation of fluoride in bones results in a bone structure metamorphosis characterized by increased bone density. If high fluoride intake persists over a long duration of time joint stiffness, pain, calcification of ligaments, and lower extremity neuropathy may ensue. Lastly, this paper describes defluoridation techniques, implementation tactics, and future recommendations of medical and education outreach are presented.

American Podiatric Medical Association Spearheading the Efforts to Combat Mycobacterium fortuitum in Nail Salon Footbaths
Lisa Nhan , California School of Podiatric Medicine, Samuel Merritt University, San Francisco
Mycobacterium fortuitum is ubiquitous in our environment with recent outbreaks of this organism reported in the whirlpool footbaths found in nail salons. Due to the non-standardized protocols to sanitize these whirlpool footbaths in nail salons, M. fortuitum have thrived in such optimal conditions offered in these footbaths, causing an immunocompromised host susceptible to a multitude of localized cutaneous infections. Delays in treating the infections may result in this rapidly growing mycobacteria to enter the bone, rendering the foot susceptible to an amputation. In order to overcome this epidemic, the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) needs to spearhead the efforts to combat M. fortuitum in nail salons. This paper presents a step approach to how the APMA can develop an organization that sets the standards for nail salon sanitation, bring awareness to the public, increase hygienic standards for all nail salons and help rid the problem of cutaneous infections caused by M. fortuitum in unsanitary nail salon footbaths.

216474 "Step Up For Foot Care" - Addressing podiatric care needs for the homeless in San Francisco
Bright Chen, DPM , California School of Podiatric Medicine, Samuel Merritt University, Oakland, Calif.
Analiza Mitchell, DPM , California School of Podiatric Medicine, Samuel Merritt University, Oakland, Calif.
David Tran, DPM, MS, California School of Podiatric Medicine, Samuel Merritt University, Oakland, Calif.
INTRODUCTION – Studies have shown that homeless people are at high risk for lower extremity limb and life-threatening pathologies. These conditions can increase the spread of infection and burden health care costs. In order to identify these concerns and their extent, a needs assessment along with a service project was conducted for the homeless in San Francisco.
METHODS – Service project and study was performed at two San Francisco homeless shelters. Educational sessions were conducted on proper foot care practices. Donated shoes, socks, and insoles were distributed to the homeless. Adult homeless subjects who met study criteria were invited to complete a survey regarding demographics, health status, hygiene practices, and self-reported foot conditions.
RESULTS – Among 299 surveryed, 74 percent of subjects stated total time on feet daily was at least five hours per day, and 31 percent related they had seen a health professional for a foot problem. As much as about 1 in 8 subjects stated they had chronic foot pain. Most common self-reported pathologies include fungal nails, calluses, and tinea pedis. 27 percent reported previous foot injury.
CONCLUSION – Most of homeless subjects were quite aware of proper foot care. However, there was notable lack of resources and high incidence of self-reported pathologies that have potentially dangerous sequelae. This project revealed considerable foot care needs for a vulnerable population and thus emphasizes lower extremity health as a pressing public health concern.

229378 Predicting Lower Extremity Injuries in a Two Week Overweight Obese Children's 2- Week Summer Camp Exercise Program- A 2-Year prospective Study Untilizing Computerized gait Analysis
Jeffrey Ross, DPM, MD , Medicine-Endrocrinology, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas
Overweight and obese children suffer from a multitude of co-morbidities. Of particular interest are those that effect the lower extremity. Conditions such as knock knees, (genu valgum), bow legs (tibial varum), flat feet (pes plannus), and high arches (pes cavus) can cause skeletal deformities to develop which can result in poor biomechanical balance of the feet and legs. These abnormalities can cause collapsing of the feet, severe internal rotation of the knees, resulting in arthritic changes and permanent deformities. Utilizing a computerized gait analysis, we are able to determine which children are at risk for developing these conditions as well as injuries of the feet and lower extremities. With this computerized gait analysis data prior to the commencement of the two-week camp program, we were able to predict which children were at risk for potential injury. A pre-camp questionnaire was also used to help predict potential injury.With this information biomechanical intervention with the use of insoles, orthtotics or proper shoe gear can be made.
Basic medical science applied in public health

To demonstrate the use of computerized gait analysis to predicit lower extremity injuries during exercise during a two-week summer camp program for obese children. To identify which children are at risk for developing overuse injuries as a result of biomechanical issues prior to the commencement of the exercise program. To analyze the data to show which children reported pain or injuries during the two-week exercise program, and compare them to the non-injured individuals.

220972 Podiatric Care and the Likelihood of Amputation or Hospitalization for People with Diabetes and Foot Ulcers
James R. Christina, DPM , Department of Scientific Affairs, American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA), Bethesda, Md.
OBJECTIVE: Some patients with diabetes and foot ulcers eventually require amputation or hospitalization. This study examines whether patients with diabetes and foot ulcers who receive care from podiatrists have different likelihoods of amputation and hospitalization than those who do not receive care from podiatrists. METHODS: Privately insured adults with diabetes and foot ulcer were found in the MarketScan Research Databases. One year of continuous enrollment prior to the date of the first claim with evidence of foot ulcer (index) was required. Patients with evidence of foot ulcer or amputation prior to index were excluded, resulting in 35,721 patients aged 65 (Medicare) and 28,796 patients aged <65 (non-Medicare). Patients were followed for up to 48 months following index. Patients with pre-index podiatrist visits were matched to patients with no podiatrist visits using propensity score (PS) matching within caliper, to control for differences in sociodemographic variables, plan type, and health status. Cox proportional hazard models estimated the hazard of amputation or hospitalization controlling for the same covariates in the PS match.
RESULTS: Care by podiatrists was associated with a lower hazard of amputation (hazard ratio [HR]=0.801, P<0.01) and hospitalization (HR=0.917, P<0.01) in the Medicare population. The results were consistent in the non-Medicare population (HR=0.765, P<0.01 for amputation; HR=0.852, P<0.01 for hospitalization). Sensitivity analysis revealed similar results for PS-matched cohorts without caliper and unmatched cohorts.
CONCLUSION: In a population of commercially insured adults with diabetes and foot ulcer, care by podiatrists appears to prevent or delay amputation and hospitalization.

221492 One Year Retrospective Study of Limb Salvage Versus Amputation in Patients Presenting to the Emergency Department with Diabetic Foot Infections
John Steinberg, DPM , Plastic surgery- Center for wound healing, Georgetown University Hospital, Washington, D.C.
Farah Siddiqui, DPM , Department of Plastic Surgery, Division of Wound Healing, Georgetown University Hospital, Washington, D.C.
Purpose: The team approach to limb salvage is becoming increasingly widespread as means of treatment for diabetic foot infections. However, just as limb salvage has become more common practice, the long-term result of many patients is still amputation. Reviewed, are cases of diabetic foot infections that presented through the Emergency Department requiring operative debridement. Methods: A retrospective chart review of patients from the past year who presented to Georgetown University Hospital (GUH) with diabetic foot infections. The authors evaluated to see if the limb was salvageable or if it went on to amputation by 1-year follow-up. Results: Complete results are still under going statistical analysis, however early results have shown a positive value to the team approach to limb salvage. Statistics so far from GUH have shown a lower amputation rate than the national average. Conclusion: This review reveals that the limb salvage rate at GUH is currently higher than the national average. It's been shown that patients undergoing an amputation have an increase of oxygen consumption (9 percent higher unilateral BKA, 49 percent higher unilateral AKA, 280 percent higher bilateral AKA) and mortality rate (4 years 9 months BKA & 4 years 3 months AKA). This further supports limb salvage over amputation in diabetic foot infections.
Other professions or practice related to public health
1.Compare limb salvage to amputation on long term outcomes and quality of life. 2.Explain why the team approach is an important entity in limb salvage.

228785 Incidence of depression in diabetic patients with lower extremity wounds utilizing the PHQ-9
Jean-Jacques Kassis, DPM , Podiatry, Miami Veterns Affairs Medical Center, Miami, Fla.
Jasmaine Shelford, MPH , School of Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, Barry University, Miami Shores, Fla.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the incidence of depression in diabetic patients with lower extremity complications and to introduce the PHQ-9 (Patient Health Questionnaire) to health care providers involved in care of patients with diabetes and lower extremity wounds. METHODS: As part of an observational trial for diabetic patients, subjects with and without diabetic lower extremity ulceration will complete the PHQ-9. This questionnaire is a 9 item summed scale, with scores ranging from 0 to 27. All patients will require completion of the questionnaire prior to clinical evaluation. All wound care will follow standard protocol of debridement, offloading and moist wound care. AIM 1: To propose that diabetic patients with lower extremity wounds will have an increased PHQ-9 score, as compared to patients without wounds AIM 2: To introduce the PHQ-9 to podiatric physicians and other wound care specialists in efforts to identify depression and eliminate the associated negative effects on wound healing. CONCLUSION: There is currently a substantial amount of literature available on the association of depression and poor wound healing. Conversely, there is minimal literature on the utilization of PHQ-9 as an additional tool to identify depression in these at risk patients. The goal of this research is to correlate the incidence of depression in diabetic patients with lower extremity complications, identify depression as a potential barrier to adherence with prescribed wound care protocols, and to introduce the PHQ-9 as an additional simple tool for wound care providers. ( still in progress but will be completed by June 30.)
1. Identify the incidence of depression in diabetic patients with lower extremity complications. 2. Compare depression in diabetic patients with lower extremity complications and diabetic patients without lower extremity complications. 3. Evaluate the effectiveness of PHQ-9 as a screening tool to assess depression in patients with lower extremity complications. 4. Define depression as a barrier to wound healing in diabetic patients with lower extremity complications.

The teaching and evaluative model for most of modern medical education and training has revolved around The Flexner Report published in 1910. Its basic philosophy is "An education in medicine, involves both learning and learning how; the student cannot effectively know, unless he knows how." Flexner also held that the physician should be a "social instrument... whose function is fast becoming social and preventive, rather than individual and curative."1
Since that time medical education has struggled to develop effective methods of teaching and competency evaluation. The time honored "see one, do one, teach one" paradigm is recognized as being woefully inadequate and significant resources and study have gone into improving how medical education and training is done. At the colleges and schools of podiatric medicine most professors are full time dedicated staffs who participate in medical education faculty development programs. By contrast residency program directors and faculty are generally a loose collaboration of well meaning and successful practitioners who generally lack much formal training in medical education. This is not unique to any particular field of medicine, and since this level of training involves a much higher cognitive level of knowledge, skills and attitudes, it demands that our accrediting bodies address the issue of residency director and faculty development. Eric Holmboe states that "The public has spoken and expects us to move forward and improve. Clinical skills are important to patients and they are clearly important to physicians who desire to be successful professionals." …. "The major challenge…for medical educators is how to ensure that the educators themselves possess strong clinical skills…and the necessary skill to effectively observe, evaluate and provide feedback to trainees regarding clinical skills"2
Each level of learning builds on the next and requires different teaching and evaluative strategies. Millers Pyramid 3 is a representation of the stages of learning and the evaluative strategies for assessment at each level. The chart below identifies four levels of skills, knowledge and attitude that increase in importance and complexity ultimately leading to competency. The foundation is "knows" or has the basic fundamental knowledge. This is the lowest and easiest level to assess using multiple choice examinations. The next level is "knows how" and represents a higher cognitive level as it requires some basic analytical thinking. This level can be assess using tools such as clinical reasoning or extended matching questions. The next level is the "shows how" level where knowledge, skills and problem solving skills are incorporated. This level may use standardized patients for assessment. Finally, putting it all together the top level, which is supported by the foundation of the first three levels, is "does" and requires a more independent demonstration of knowledge, skills, attitudes, problem solving and competency. This level is best assessed using calibrated direct observation where the faculty has agreed in advance on what is acceptable performance and what is not and applies them uniformly for all trainees.
Miller's Pyramid
Holmboe, Hawkins, Huot demonstrated the effectiveness of direct observation in their 2004 study The Effects of Training in Direct Observation of Medical Residents' Clinical Competence: A randomized trial. 4 In this study they used a cluster randomized designed to assess faculty satisfaction and changes in faculty rating behaviors after a one day direct–observation workshop in faculty from 16 internal medicine programs. They found that there were meaningful changes in both rating behaviors and the faculty comfort with the direct-observational methods of assessment.
Holmboe and Hawkins have recommended substantial changes in the way we train our doctors including; giving higher priority to evaluation of clinical skills at medical schools and residency programs; developing educational champions and a core group of physician-educator faculty to serve as experts for clinical skills teaching; measuring outcome of training programs; and expecting certification, evaluation and accreditation organizations to provide meaningful resources for research and development involving the evaluation of clinical skills.
The Council on Podiatric Medical Education in its CPME 320 document mandates that residency directors participate in faculty development specifically geared toward medical education, training and evaluation.5 Most recently the Council of Teaching Hospitals of the American Association of Colleges of Podiatric Medicine has recognized its responsibility in this area and has developed faculty development programs in the direct observation of competency.
We have a long way to go regarding how we teach and assess of competency of students and residents. Studies have continued to show significant deficiencies in clinical skills in students and practicing physicians alike. The direct observation of skills is not a new concept; however, the current iteration takes it to a new level proving the framework for consistency and validity. Specifically the calibration of faculty on what is and is not acceptable performance should provide the framework necessary for more accurate and timely summative and formative evaluation.

Bringing Two Communities Together to Better Feet
It does not take much effort to create a positive impact on another person's life. As a child, my 4-H club taught me to be generous with my time and my talents to better my community. Working with small budgets as children, we developed creative ways to give back.
As a student, I understood the ins and outs of a tight budget, but I have always been willing to help and volunteer. The student run American Academy of Practice Management Club at Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine was searching for a new, inspiring community service project. This past spring, the local news had a headline on an athletic store collecting shoes for Haiti. The Soles for Souls Foundation is a non-profit organization that collects new and gently used shoes for under privileged areas across the world. This was a perfect project for a group of podiatry students, but we were currently in the midst of finals and had no time to go searching for old shoes. We wanted to be involved in the project but did not know how to develop the resources needed to make the project successful.
The more I researched the project, the more I realized there was plenty to be done. Not only did we need to collect shoes, but they also needed to be washed, sorted, and brought to or shipped to a delivery center. Could our club really get this accomplished on a small budget during our anxiety-provoking, final exams?
I reminisced about my 10 years in 4-H. We worked together and used so many different resources to make projects happen. Then it dawned on me; my 4-H club could help the student AAPPM club on our community service project. I contacted my old 4-H leader and threw the idea past her. We talked briefly about the project, and it only took minutes to create a game plan. They didn't have the resources to deliver the shoes to a Souls for Soles center, and we didn't have the resources to collect large quantities of shoes. When we combined our communities, we had all of the resources we needed to complete the project correctly.
The 4-H children and their families loved the idea and couldn't wait to help. They all went home and searched every closet and asked every neighbor for old shoes. After the 4-H club collected the shoes, the practice management club would wash, sort, and deliver them to a Soles for Souls center near Scholl College in Chicago.
On my next visit home to Wisconsin, I borrowed a van and packed it full of shoes collected by the 4-H Family. I brought the shoes to my school, and the club developed a plan of action to wash and package the shoes. The students took study breaks and slowly washed and sorted the shoes until every last shoe was boxed up and ready for donation. A short drive later, the shoes were off to Haiti. The 4-H club was so excited to have worked on a project with a podiatric medical school all the way in Chicago, and the Practice Management Club was so happy to have had help from eager children. The most appreciative were the children and families in Haiti who received a simple yet necessary gift from strangers. I learned that sometimes bringing two communities together is the best way to make a big difference in a community far away.

The US Hockey team beat the same Russians who were standing in mile long lines to buy toilet paper, their country was falling apart, long before Reagan took credit for ending the 'Cold War'! Our hockey team (amateurs) beat a bunch of pro players, that was it, exciting for a couple of days not decades! Our right wing political machine placed Reagan (the puppet) in power and blamed a truly beleaguered Jimmy Carter who only "lusted" in his heart for a better America than the one Nixon/Ford left us with! This film dredges up those horrible days when all we heard was Kool& The Gang's "Celebrate" Good Times and Reagan (about to be inaugurated) bought the return of the American hostages by giving "weapons of mass destuction" to the Iranians to fight against Saddam in Iraq, a couple of years later he recieved weapons from us as well, remember ? People were running around taking yellow ribbons off trees and thinking we were entering a great new era, nonsense, all we got was trickle-down "voodoo" economics (George Bush the elders words), Ollie North (the traitor) and Iran/Contra humiliations. Reagan's de-regulation of everything has ruined this country's first world position ever since! For those of you who weren't around or who never realized what was going on in those "Miraculous" days of 1980 this is fact.You want heroes ? Look elsewhere ! This is a lousy movie that again proves how Hollywood keeps missing the point.

We are tired of the glum-pessmistic outlook of your type Mr. Elvis Mitchell. First of all 1980 was just 24 years ago. Secondly, how else would you have a movie retell an actual event; lie? What's wrong with accuracy of history? Life is often "stranger than fiction" and usually more interesting. Lastly, what's wrong with a feel good movie? Not dark enough for you? Get out of your off-Broadway dark dementia and look at the real world; the beauty of the real world.

This movie is AWESOME! The hockey action is very real. I got tired just WATCHING these guys skate!!!!
Add 1/2 a star if you are a hockey nut- there is a LONG hockey sequence towards the end of the movie - and they re-created the actual game almost EXACTLY as it happened.
Kurt Russel was convincing as Herb Brooks.
However, I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars because it fell just a tad short of REALLY setting and explaining the tone and emotion of the USA at the time - which explains WHY this story is so emotional and important in the history of America and American Sports. The movie got the facts about the times but they appeared to almost be afterthought - they were just sprinkled in. The HBO documentary "Do you Believe in Miracles" did a much better job of converying the mood of the nation.
Also- the filmmakers could have done better at reproducing the ice arena and town of Lake Placid. (Or, they should have just shot the hockey scenes there!) Anybody who has ever been to that arena will know right away that it is not a good replica.
Still, overall, it was a VERY GOOD movie, and I do plan on seeing it again.

First time in many years, and including LOTR 1-2-3, that the audience has applauded and risen to their feet during the credits -- thrilling to see! Russell's best work in an adequate career, you can take the kids, and the non-sports person will be squirming in the seat with tension over the hockey! I nearly loathe sports and was enthralled ... no checking the watch during this film.
Superb cast and best of all --- TRUE! You gotta love it!

Despite what professional reviewers have been saying, this movie brought out the emotions of the audience like few movies do. The packed audience I was in was cheering each American goal as if they were at a game. They were also chanting USA...USA... I know we all know the ending, but it's a great movie that relives truly one of the best moments in sports history, and quite frankly, American history.

This movie will move you like few others. From Kurt Russell's Oscar-worthy performance, to the intensity of the hockey scenes, this is what Brooks was like, this is what the time was like, this is how it felt to be in Lake Placid, this is what it was like to live it.
And I am so lucky to have done so.
Don't miss this movie.

In casting hockey players as actors rather than vice versa, the director has given us a movie much better than it might have been. The hockey scenes are authentic and elicit memories of a quarter century ago when America badly needed a lift and twenty college kids gave it to us.
Kurt Russell, one of our best actors, finally has a role that might win the big prize. Playing USA Olympic hockey coach, the late Herb Brooks, Russell makes the role come alive, taunting, pushing, driving, and telling these young men that, "on ten nights you might lose to the Russians nine times, but not this one, men; this is your time"
The game with the Russians takes up the last twenty minutes of the film and even though we all know the outcome, it'll keep you on the edge of your seat anyway.
And when team captain Mike Eruzione announces to his teammates who he is and where he is from, it is only one of the many times you'll need during the film to get out your handkerchief.
Kudos to all associated with this film. It is smart, funny, inspirational, and an accurate snapshot of 25 years ago when we as a nation were getting beaten a lot.
But not on that special day in Lake Placid when superhuman heights were reached by very human people.

Viewers in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Massachusetts will feel a special connection. While this movie won't play well in Moscow, it should do well almost everywhere else (among sports fans, at least).
Kurt Russell IS Herb Brooks, as they say. (Was that a wig he was wearing?). Hey, get ready for some great (authentic)play-by-play commentary by Al Michaels which is perfectly matched to what you see on the screen.
Lake Placid is the backdrop for a greater part of the movie, but we really don't see much of it. I was hoping for more, actually.
If you have been a coach (of any sport), you will probably enjoy this, as I did, more than others in the audience. Non-sports fans may find their minds drifting to thoughts of income tax, ground hogs, and presidential primaries.

Everyone knows the US beat the Russians in 1980. We've heard it, we've seen the climactic moment a million times. Do you believe in Miracles? Well, the miracle is that something so familliar could be presented so entertainingly and so freshly that you want to jump out of your seat waving an American flag. I watched the 1980 Olympics and saw the real thing as it happened but seeing this movie gives insights into the story behind the obvious and makes the miracle on ice even more compelling. Director O'Connor and lead actor Kurt Russell team up to make this a great story. It transends sports as most great sports movies do. Russell did an outstanding job as Herb Brooks, in spite of the goofy looking hair. The action scenes are outstanding. Take a couple of hours and go see a slice of sports history even if you're not a sports fan. All you have to be is an America fan!

For sports fans & the last generation who were around when this event happened.
Otherwise not current for the biggest group going to the cinema, teenage boys.
Quite tedious when action is off the ice but great when on

This is a terrific movie. The acting is outstanding, the hockey thrilling. But, more, it makes you remember the feelings from the time and expands their meaning as you more fully understand the team and their struggles. The theater was filled with kids whose parents had brought them to share a point of reference in their own lives. In the end, the entire audience was cheering wildly for each goal -- the kids because it is a compelling story and the adults because it reminded us all of the possibilities of life, how great success requires great sacrifice and how this one event affected our personal perspective. The movie pulls you in, shot by shot, until you are on the edge of your seat, praying the puck into the net -- even when you already logically know it is going there. My appreciation for the team spirit and sacrifice of the Olympic team grew immensely as did my respect and admiration for Coach Brooks. Kurt Russell's performance is extraordinary. His skill in portraying a complex man and situation is incredible. It is a movie that reminds us all of the courage and dedication that are needed to create a "Miracle".

24 years ago, a truly magical assemblance of college hockey players led by Herb Brooks shocked not only hockey fans, but the world as a whole. Sure, it's common knowledge the U.S. rose above insurmountable odds to defeat the Soviets in 1980. What's not known is the story behind the story. How Brooks brought together a bunch of guys from Boston and Minnesota who had competed for years and really weren't that crazy about one another.
The psychology Brooks used to break down those walls, break down the machine known as "The Soviet National Hockey Team" in the eyes of his players and ultimately wring every last ounce of talent out of each and every one of them.
Having followed this team, I was a little leery when I heard Kurt Russell had been cast to portray the legendary Herb Brooks. I must admit though, I was pleasantly surprised! Russell does an excellent job of capturing Brooks' mannerisms, expressions and intensity. Equally impressive though is the quality of hockey this movie brings to the screen. Second to none, period. Most surprising though is the performances turned in by a bunch of "hockey players turned actors" in portraying those who made "the Miracle" possible.
The world has changed quite a bit over the last 24 years... And chances are there won't be another true "upset" of this magnitude during my lifetime. Now, thanks to Disney, I am able to share those same feelings and emotions I had as a youth with my children.

Miracles is wonderful inspirational family fare, but it doesn't make the jump to greatness. Russell's character drives his boys hard, both to discipline them and to imbed a family bond among them. To do so, he has to face down his superiors and he has to placate his rightfully exasperated wife. Scene after scene deals with the conflict resolution, such as it is, along that journey. But while the movie's basic idea is conveyed, the acting and screenplay lacks depth. We are given a decent taste of character development, but not the full meal. Russell is pretty much one dimensional. Clarkson, his wife, doesn't let loose the way one would want, and remains unrealized. The change point for Jim Craig, the goalie with an attitude who comes around to give his all, is implied rather than dramatically expressed. In short, I never lost the conscious perspective that I was watching a movie.
Much of the early sports action was filmed at too close a range, creating a blurry confusion rather than clear excitement. But the filming of the climax game against the Soviet Union finally gives gripping, followable action. The difference seems to be simply in how much time and effort was made to choreograph the various action.
Despite the shortcomings, the basic themes of the picture come across. Hard work, esprit d' corps, patriotism, and faith sometimes can do the impossible. Very worthwhile viewing, and the contextual nostalgia was nice too. Great family fare.

Just a quick couple of comments. Yes, I loved it, and you will enjoy yourself at this movie. Go see it. Yes, there are some lumpy throat minutes.
The most notable theatrical feature to me, after seeing it three times, is the acting by the hockey players is actually very good. They did their job. The guy who played O'Callahan really came alive. And what a heart throb good looker. The Eruzionne guy did a great job of keeping up the tension between him and Brooks. Maybe they have agents now.
Kurt Russell did a great job.
Can't wait for the DVD, as the cut scenes should be good. We did not see enough of Harrington's humor. And, I would like to see more footage of the Czech game. That was an amazing eye-opener.

My group is interested in the role of transition metal ions in proteins that are involved in disease, infection, and injury. The human body requires a large number of transition metal ions including Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Zn, and Ni. These are involved in processes including energy transduction, metabolism, cell recognition, oxygen transport, protein processing, protein targeting, gene regulation, and DNA/RNA processing. All of these metal ions, except Zn, often exist in oxidation states containing unpaired electrons and can be detected by the magnetic resonance technique, EPR spectroscopy. Some of the techniques we use, and systems that we work on, are summarized here.
EPR is a magnetic resonance technique that provides information on the oxidation state, geometry, and ligand environment of the metal centers in enzymes and enzyme complexes and intermediates. EPR can also be used to measure distances between spins and provide detailed structural information on site-specifically "spin-labeled" proteins. Two important aspects of our research in EPR methodology are:
Developing methods to extract structural information on Zn enzymes from EPR of substituted Co(II).
Increasing the information content of EPR spectra of Co(II) and Cu(II) by optimizing the frequencies at which spectra are recorded.
This work is in conjunction with Profs. William E. Antholine and James Hyde, and uses computer simulation software developed by Prof. Graeme Hanson.
RFQ is a method of rapidly mixing and freezing solutions. Using RFQ, we can trap enzyme catalytic cycle intermediates for examination by EPR ("RFQ-EPR"). By taking EPR "snapshots" along the reaction coordinate, we investigate the catalytic mechanism. By using spin-labeled enzymes, conformational changes during the enzymatic reaction can be followed.
VpAP and its homologs are Zn-dependent aminopeptidases that are secreted by bacteria including Vibrio, Clostridium, and Streptomyces. The enzyme is a virulence factor in the infectivity of these bacteria. VpAP also has very close structural homology to the peptidatic domain of the human prostate-specific membrane antigen. Investigation of the mechanism of VpAP provides useful information for the design of antibacterial agents and inhibitors with therapeutic, investigative, and diagnostic potential for prostate cancer. Much of the work on VpAP has been carried out with Prof. Rick Holz. We have recently proposed a novel hydrolytic mechanism for VpAP based on crystallography and RFQ-EPR.
MBLs confer resistance to b-lactam antibiotics upon many pathogenic bacteria. We have used EPR and RFQ-EPR to study a number of these enzymes, providing information on metal center assembly, the structures of the active metal centers, the mechanisms of catalysis, and conformational changes during catalysis. These studies provide new information relevant to the design of antibacterials toward resistant pathogens. This work is carried out in conjunction with Profs. Mike Crowder, Alejandro Vila, and David Tierney.
We also study the proteins a-synuclein (AS), xanthine oxidase (XO), nitrile hydratase (NH), and the prostate-specific membrane antigen PSMA; GCPII. AS is involved in neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Parkinson's disease and Lewy body dementia, and we are interested in the role of metal binding in fibril formation. XO is a molybdoprotein, and we are investigating the interactions of nitric oxide with XO. NH contains an unusual iron center and is an important biocatalyst due to its stereospecificity. PSMA is very highly overexpressed in the prostate.

A woman operating what she described as an animal rescue organization is facing neglect charges after deputies raided Willamette Valley Animal Rescue in Brooks.
Marion County Sheriff's deputies said 24-year-old Alicia Inglish is the president of the rescue facility. They arrested her Sunday morning when she showed up at the rescue building with four dogs.
Inglish was arraigned in court Monday and charged with 10 counts of animal neglect and attempted tampering with evidence. Her bail was reduced to $55,000.
She was originally arrested and charged with 120 counts of animal neglect with bail set at $300,000. She is due back in court Jan. 22.
Deputies said they found more than 140 dogs in various stages of care at her facility. Some of the dogs were freely running around the building, while others were caged in wire dog runs.
Deputies said they found several dog transportation carriers with as many as four dogs inside, despite the carriers only being intended for one animal.
A Marion County Sheriff's spokesman said deputies found "no food available to the animals and the little water we found in the cages was undrinkable due to garbage and foreign objects spoiling it."
Many dogs appeared to be extremely underweight, deputies said, and others appeared sick, with some animals' eyes sealed shut with body fluids.
The building had no staff on site, and one dog had his head stuck in the wire cage after trying to get out, deputies said. Many of the cages were filled with animal feces and urine, the sheriff's office said.
Deputies said they expect to make more arrests.
Inglish's company is listed on Petfinder.com as a volunteer organization that aims to find homes for hard-to-place dogs. Deputies started investigating after getting a number of complaints about the care of the animals and the conditions of the facility.
Dr. Kris Otteman, a veterinarian with the Oregon Humane Society, described the condition of the animals as "terrible."
"They are lacking the basic care needed to survive," Otteman said. "I found no food available to them and the water in their cages was filled with stench. I saw one animal stuffed into a cage that was so small he was unable to lie down, sit or stand up."The animals taken from Inglish's facility have been taken to a number of area animal care facilities, including the Oregon Humane Society.
The arrival of the rescued pets has put the OHS at double its capacity for dogs. With more than 80 dogs available for adoption, OHS Director Sharon Harmon is urging the public to adopt a dog now and help relieve crowded conditions at the shelter. OHS is also reducing the price of all dogs one year and older to $50 through the end of January.
