Mountain View, CA - September 4, 2012 - El Camino Hospital today announced that Mick Zdeblick is starting as the hospital's new Chief Operating Officer (COO).
Among his key responsibilities will be to ensure El Camino Hospital has the processes and systems in place to implement its three-year strategic plan, focused on the triple aim of improving individual experience, improving quality and reducing costs across the enterprise.
"Throughout his career, Mick has demonstrated an ability to effectively drive change in complex health care organizations," said Tomi Ryba, president and CEO of El Camino Hospital. "His experience and deep knowledge of operational best-practices will be critical to El Camino Hospital as we enter the next phase of our evolution in creating a continuum of integrated, patient-centric care through our clinical programs, further optimizing the health of Silicon Valley residents."
Mr. Zdeblick brings more than 25 years of management and operational experience to El Camino Hospital, having spent the majority of his career at APM Inc. (acquired by CSC in 2001).
During his tenure at APM, he specialized in provider-based consulting, working with organizations such as Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins and Long Beach Memorial to lead a number of process improvement projects, including the implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems (supply chain, human resources, grant management, and finance), operational restructuring and process redesign.
He comes to El Camino Hospital most recently from Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, Ill., where he was leading a Campus Transformation inclusive of designing the core processes of a new 800,000 square foot hospital.
He also served as vice president of Operations, and in that capacity, developed a new clinical care model for the surgical suite and interventional areas and also redesigned the hospital's supply chain to realize greater efficiencies.

Sentence offers relief from grief
Victims' relatives, neighbors praise ruling, but loss endures
Before 2005, Wolf Lodge Bay was a place to eat a steak, watch ospreys hunt fish in Lake Coeur d'Alene or find an easy campsite.
Now it's also the site of the empty house where a killer and child rapist came searching for prey on May 16, 2005. Along with committing the sexual assaults and four murders that followed, Joseph Edward Duncan III changed the community's sense of place.
"The impact is so far-reaching. We thought we had a quiet community," Kootenai County Sheriff Rocky Watson said. "Now it's not unusual to drive through this community and see a 'Kill Duncan' bumper sticker on a nice car. I can never even guess the reach of the effect on this community by this killer."
Amber Deahn, 28, was working the late shift as a waitress at a Coeur d'Alene Denny's on July 2, 2005, when Duncan and Shasta Groene re-emerged there after a nearly seven-week hideout in Montana. As Coeur d'Alene police officers led Duncan from the restaurant, Deahn asked Shasta her name before lifting the girl into a teary embrace.
"Our children are our most precious gift on this planet," Deahn, a mother of three, said Wednesday. "To have that innocence ripped away from a child is unacceptable. Every child should be allowed to be a child."
Deahn, whose Army Reserve husband is awaiting redeployment to the Middle East, said she hopes to travel to California to follow Duncan's case in the killing of Anthony Martinez.
The death sentence delivered Wednesday "is a little bit of relief. Shasta will have some closure and justice will be done for her family when he receives the death penalty," she said. "Ms. Martinez deserves that closure just as much as any other mother. Until there is closure for those families, for me it's not over yet."
Deahn hopes media attention surrounding Duncan's case leads to harsher sentences for child predators.
"We know he was stalking this family. He was hanging out at playgrounds," she said. "All you can do is take that information and protect your children and the children of neighbors."
Relief for relatives
Relatives of Duncan's victims said they hoped the death sentence would begin to ease grief that has marked their lives since that May day when Duncan killed Brenda and Slade Groene and Mark McKenzie in their Wolf Lodge Bay home. After the murders, Duncan fled with Shasta and Dylan Groene, torturing and eventually murdering Dylan, 9.
Lee McKenzie-Wood, 66, McKenzie's mother, said she was ecstatic when she heard about Duncan's death sentence.
"I haven't been this jacked up in a long time," she said. "It's like I've been locked up in a prison, and my heart and mind have been locked up. When this verdict was released, it flowed out of me. Tears flowed out of me."
McKenzie-Wood said her 37-year-old son and Brenda Groene, 40, had called for advice about canning the Thursday before Duncan bound and bludgeoned them, along with Groene's 13-year-old son, Slade Groene, to death with a FatMax claw hammer.
"They were going to get married in a few months," she said. "The healing will never come for me or the (rest of the) McKenzie family."
Ralph McKenzie, Mark's father, said he didn't attend the Boise trial because he didn't think he could sit through the proceedings in the room with Duncan.
"This trial has been awful rough on all of us," he said.
He wasn't surprised by the verdict – he said he didn't see how jurors could've reached any other – but he was relieved.
"That gives us some closure," he said. "Now we've just got to get on with our lives."
Asked if he thought Mark would have wanted the verdict, he said: "Sure he would have."
Wendy Price, Steve Groene's sister and Shasta's aunt, said she's not sure there will ever be closure, but Duncan's death sentence will provide family members with some relief.
"Tragedy is not really an adequate word to describe this," she said. "It's taken an awful toll."
Among the effects on Price: Not eating. Not sleeping. A new, more frightened, perspective on the world.
Price's first granddaughter was born seven months ago; she now worries constantly.
"I'm scared for her to go to public school. I'm scared for her to say hi to people in the supermarket," Price said.
Price said she believes Duncan's sentence will serve as a warning to other predators. "You are not going to take our children and kill our families. We will hunt you down and find you," she said.
Family members of Duncan, 45, had nothing to say.
"I'm sorry, I have no comment," said his mother, Lillian Duncan, who lives in an apartment in Tacoma.
"No, thank you," said a woman who answered the phone at the Poulsbo home of Duncan's sister, Tina Novotney.
In Las Vegas, a man who answered the phone number listed for Duncan's father and stepmother said the couple no longer lived there.
'Scars in our community'
The trial process took longer than anticipated by Bob Hollingsworth, a neighbor who found the Wolf Lodge Bay crime scene after the slayings there.
"I expected this whole thing to be settled sometime in 2006," Hollingsworth said.
Execution is probably "the only solution to this situation," Hollingsworth said. It's not a matter of malice or vengeance, he said, "it's just a correct punishment."
Kootenai County Prosecutor Bill Douglas said the death sentence should give the families and the community a chance to begin a healing process.
"This has left deep scars in our community," he said. "I think this is a good first step. Hopefully he will never return."
Duncan won't be coming back to Coeur d'Alene on state charges. He already received three life sentences for state kidnapping convictions, and Douglas will agree to three more life sentences on the murder convictions on hold during the federal trial.
Although he believed the death sentence was "a slam dunk" in the federal case, Douglas said he was "very, very surprised" when Duncan demanded to represent himself, rather than using experienced death-penalty defenders, and then offered little defense.
"By his just laying down, one wonders if this was the result (Duncan) wanted," Douglas said.
McKenzie-Wood said she spent the day calling family members with news of the verdict. She planned to celebrate with friends at a Denny's in Post Falls. "It's just pure relief. I'm sure Mark is looking down and cheering just like we are," she said. "If he had the chance, he'd drink a beer. Both he and Brenda would."

Now that the system is live, MobFox continues to benefit from Treasure Data's service-based approach. "Treasure Data is essentially our Big Data operations team: we just store and analyze data, and they take care of everything else. They are a smart, dependable team," said Zehetmayr.

IoT generates lots of temporal data. But how do you unlock its value? You need to discover patterns that are repeatable in vast quantities of data, understand their meaning, and implement scalable monitoring across multiple data streams in order to monetize the discoveries and insights. Motif discovery and deep learning platforms are emerging to visualize sensor data, to search for patterns and to build application that can monitor real time streams efficiently.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Really dig the Tavannes. That thing in a silver or white gold case... a winner.
Looked at some of their current stuff, closest they had was this case:

Orient Mako, Parnis, or Sea-Gull? Uses: work, social outings, everyday beater. Heck, at sub-100 prices I'm fine buying 2 or 3 and saving on the shipping. Leaning towards leather because metal has always bothered the hairs on my arms, though not opposed to giving it a shot.
Big fan of Seagull for the price. I have a limited 1963 Chronograph hand-wound on a NATO band. I say get a nice Seagull handwound!post #983 of 59739/14/11 at 4:35pm

Got this Timex at Target around 4 years ago for about $85. The face is some sort of dark charcoal color, which seems to compliment everything/pick up ambient color quite handsomely. I work in a service industry job (gee, wonder why I checked out the Po' Folk Watch Thread?) & this thing has taken an absolute thrashing on a daily basis.
I offer it as another example of a quality watch that can be had for cheap, while still looking great casually & (in a pinch) more dressed up. I get compliments on it all the time.
Anyway, I really appreciate this thread as I'm in the market for a slightly dressier watch, but still on a budget. What a great sampling of options!post #985 of 59739/15/11 at 2:26am

Here's my review of the DW watch. Got mine, and finally go ta chance to try it out. I'm a fan, but I'm not blown away. I'm no watch snob by any means but I like to think I know a thing or two about quality and have an appreciation for watches. Anyways, the watch ships fast (3-4 business days from Sweden) and they have very good contact through email. Comes packaged in very very minimal packaging (small white box with foam padding and a tiny instructions printout). Not to be considered a con in any way, what would you expect for that price.
The watch is definitely a quartz, although there is no moving second hand, so that tends to be not as noticeable. I can't comment on how accurate it keeps time, and frankly I'm not interested at this price range. The quality is pretty good, no cheap sounding rattles. The watch is super light and very thin, but wears surprisingly well on a small wrist since there's not much border on the dial. My one pet peeve is that the NATO bands have silver hardware/metal loops, while the watch itself is rose gold, which.. again, can't really be considered much of a flaw of the watch as that's pretty run-of-the-mill NATO and to be expected. Are there any NATO bands w/ gold or rose gold loops/hardware?
All in all I'd say its a welcome addition to my quickly growing sub-$1000 watch collection. For the money, it looks nice and seems to perform well.
Lastly, I'm looking to throw this on a thin dark brown leather band somewhere in the range of $50-$100. Anyone have any ideas? I was thinking Ostrich, but I need a SHORT length and that really narrows down my options. I would do alligator, but I don't want to spend more than the watch is worth. If someone could point me in the right direction (much like that Skagen previously posted ) that would be great.
If anyone has any questions about the watch, please ask
Thanks for the review. I ordered mine last Friday and could only be shipped today. So let's hope it arrives fast cos I've been waiting for close to a week now from the supposedly fast shipping. And I also got a free tracking number although I have no idea how to use it as the site is in Swedish and Google Translate does a horrible job. Making sentences that makes no sense.post #986 of 59739/15/11 at 1:30pm

Navy blue nato w/ brushed hardware (courtesy of ebay) arrived today. I think it looks great on this little guy. Maybe i'll take some better pics when work stops sucking.
justinsmnz, does yours have a brownish gray dial or black? mine seems more brownish gray in person but seems to show up as black in all photos.Quote:Originally Posted by boogaboogabooga
Took your advice as it was good. Got this suggestion.
Only 200 smackers. Pretty slick, huh? Well, minus the shipping. Good thing watches are relatively light. Shipping from France can't be cheap.

The BOP surplus widened to $751 million in September, compared with $582 million in August. The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas says it is reviewing its forecast of a $2.6 billion surplus for the year and could announce an upward revision soon. Still, the cumulative 9-month surplus is smaller than last year at $5.8 billion compared with $9.72 billion.

Turner Broadcasting System (TBS) has chosen Scientific Atlanta's MPEG-4 D9034 Encoder to send programs as SD MPEG-4 signals to telecom companies for distribution via IPTV. TBS is the first U.S. linear programmer to provide its own MPEG-4 signal for IP delivery of video content.
Scientific Atlanta's D9034 Encoders will be installed at TBS' Techwood campus and CNN Center in Atlanta, providing signals for CNN, CNN Headline News, TNT, Cartoon Network and Turner Classic Movies. The MPEG-4 compression technology (AVC) will help telecom operators deliver more channels simultaneously to the home at bandwidth saving bit rates, without compromising video quality.
In addition, the Scientific Atlanta encoder offers the capability to mix both MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 signals in one transport stream. This gives programmers the flexibility to provide both MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 content from the same transponder, using the same conditional access and network management system for simplified operations and a unified authorization procedure for individual customers.

Congressman Elijah E. Cummings, Ranking Member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and former Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation, will join Coast Guard senior leaders and the President of Morgan State University, Dr. David Wilson, on Tuesday, November 1st, aboard the newly delivered Coast Guard National Security Cutter STRATTON to sign a partnership agreement that will provide new academic opportunities to Morgan State University's students and faculty, while supporting the Coast Guard's efforts to recruit new officers and employees.
As Subcommittee Chairman, Cummings convened a series of hearings to examine diversity throughout the service, particularly at the Coast Guard Academy. The number of minority students attending the Coast Guard Academy has grown significantly in recent years, increasing from just 12 percent of the Class of 2012 to 34 percent of the Class of 2015. The Coast Guard has also initiated new partnerships with minority serving institutions. Today, sixteen Coast Guard flag officers and Senior Executive Service members are officially affiliated with Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) such as North Carolina A&T and Norfolk State University. The Coast Guard has signed 7 formal Memoranda of Agreements with HBCUs.
"The United States Coast Guard protects the waterways and borders of our nation each and every day in ways that many Americans will never see," said Cummings. "It is critically important that the Coast Guard not only represent the people it protects, but that it affords an equal opportunity for all Americans to have the honor of serving their nation in that effort. Because of this new partnership, new doors will open to Morgan State University students – doors that could lead them into a career serving our nation that perhaps they never previously considered. I applaud the Coast Guard for working with Morgan State University to make that goal a reality."
Under the new agreement, Morgan State University students will have an opportunity to participate in mentorships, internships, and scholarship programs offered by the United States Coast Guard. In addition, full-time Morgan State University students will receive direct support from Coast Guard mentors as they apply for the College Student Pre-Commissioning Initiative (CSPI) program, through which students can receive full tuition for up to two academic years, books and essential supplies, as well as active-duty Coast Guard benefits.

Since he started as film critic for the Chicago Sun-Times in 1967, and began covering movies locally and at international film festivals, Roger Ebert has met and interviewed countless movie idols, artists and unknowns -- some of them even before they became famous. There's hardly a major figure in the history of movies, from the last part of the 20th century into the 21st, that he hasn't encountered.
"Parkland" takes a unique behind the scenes view of one of history's most examined events, the assassination of JFK on November 22, 1963, telling the story not only of the hospital staff at Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas who attended to the President, but the many others impacted that day including Abraham Zapruder the unwitting cameraman who captured the event, and the family of assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald.
In this video story, film journalist Katherine Tulich interviews director and screenwriter Peter Landesman about the casting and making of the movie, as well as Paul Giamatti who plays Abraham Zapruder, and Australia actress Jacki Weaver who plays Marguerite Oswald, mother of Lee Harvey Oswald.

Jeremy Choate, Houston Lighting Artist, Dies in Tragic Accident
Our sister blog Hair Balls has the official HPD report for the fatal accident.
Houston lighting artist Jeremy Choate, 33, died Sunday afternoon after a hit-and-run accident Saturday evening at I-10 and Studemont, according to reports by KHOU and CultureMap.
"The victim in this accident died this afternoon leaving behind two young daughters," Suchu Dance Artistic Director Jennifer Wood wrote in a comment on the KHOU story. "He was a loved and respected member of the Houston arts community and we are devastated."
Choate collaborated with many local groups during his career, including Theater LaB, Suchu Dance, and the Pink Ribbons Project.

Lighting was a lifelong passion for Choate. "Light is everything. It's the source for all life," he told Art Attack in an April 2011 100 Creatives interview. "There's something magical about it for me."
Choate became known for moving lighting to the center stage. In one work he described to Art Attack, "The dancers could grab the lightbulb and throw it around onstage so that they were ultimately dancing with the light."
Choate was riding a motorcycle when the accident occurred. He told Art Attack in that same interview that a motorcycle ride had inspired one of his creations:
What inspires him: The way everyday objects are lit entrances Choate. He once drew inspiration for dance lighting while cruising down I-45 at night. The streetlights were swirling shadows around his motorcycle, an effect he re-created onstage using mercury vapor lights. "We had a white floor so that the shadows, when the dancers were moving around, would have that same quality of growing in length and circling around their bodies," he says.
Facebook filled up Sunday with friends of Choate's in Houston's art community mourning his loss.

LDS Easter video viewed over 5 million times
LDS Church
SALT LAKE CITY — With a boost from the high-profile ad slot at the top of Web giant YouTube's home page, the Easter video at the heart of the LDS Church's Holy Week social media initiative drew roughly 2 million new views over the weekend.
By Monday afternoon, the "Because of Him" video had 3.95 million views in English and 1.28 million more in Spanish. The total of more than 5.25 million was up from 2.6 million on Friday evening.
Most of the new traffic arrived on Sunday — Easter — by design.
The media campaign launched April 13 — Palm Sunday — used email, Twitter and Facebook to distribute banner ads and daily memes — "The world is filled with second chances," "The grave has no victory" — and the video to illustrate the belief of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Easter and in Christ as the Son of God.
"Easter is the celebration of Jesus Christ rising from the dead on the third day — a truth not only at the core of our faith, but also at the heart of answers to the deepest questions of the soul," said Greg Droubay, director of Mormon.org, in a statement released last week. "We've launched this Christ-focused initiative because we want to be a resource for those seeking second chances or wondering about death after losing a loved one."
On Easter Sunday, the church promoted the video on YouTube's home page, both in English and Spanish. YouTube's home page draws more than 100 million visitor's per day.
Here's what the ad looked like on Sunday. Clicking on the ad brought up a condensed, 30-second version of the three-minute "Because of Him" video that pointed to the longer version and to a website, Mormon.org/BecauseofHim.
For more on the campaign, see the Deseret News story on Friday and the church's press release.

How do you score a round?
Everyone has their way of scoring a fight, what do you look for and what do you feel is a fair way to score a round?
Do you score rounds by number of punches landed or thrown? Activity or who landed the harder/cleaner shots? Do you look for a fighter being the aggressor or being slick?
If you could make all judges score the same across the board what type of system would you use?

I look for fighters putting hands on the other opponent...
I never overlook the jab...power punches are a plus, but some fighters do damage with the jab and that's overlooked at times....

I try to keep an open mind for everything that happens in a round - who's controlling the ring, who's forcing the action, who lands the most punches, who lands the cleaner, more effective punches, who's controlling the pace, who's moving better, who has better defense, who's winning the foot battle (if it's orthodox vs. southpaw).
All time great

I consider the following attributes in order of importance:
1. clean hard punches - who landed the cleaner harder punches? Who landed more punches?
2. effective aggression i.e. coming forward, pressing the fight, landing scoring punches
3. ring generalship - who's dictating the tempo, who's moving around the ring effectively
Here are my scoring guidelines:
I try not to score even rounds
If fighter A knocks fighter B down then I automatically score the round 10-8. Fighter B will have to have dominated the round before/after the knockdown to make it a 10-9 in fighter A's favor.
I don't generally score 10-8 rounds if fighter is not knocked down. The only exception are if I fighter is staggering around the ring for prolonged period or if the fighter is 'out on his feet.' All too often, people try to score 10-8 rounds without a knockdown.

- //John Platania
John Platania has worked with a lot of people ranging from Van Morrison to Natalie Merchant. His latest album is a strong, quality-filled instrumental-oriented project that kicks off with the tight, blues-tinged "Runnin' with the Dogs", showing off his chops quite well. Things go a different route with the barren but beautiful Mexican-influenced "Child Heroes" and the equally deliberate "East Texas Waltz", reminiscent of Stevie Ray Vaughan. Other songs such as the breezy "Song for the Quiet One" are interspersed with spoken word moments. Perhaps the highlight here is the bluesy Texas feel oozing out of the aptly named "Texas Sexy Ways". Like most instrumental albums though, there are some lulls such as the roadhouse feel of "Train Wreck" which seems to sag as it goes along. But the galloping "Tribute" certainly hits the spot.

A lovely hotel, with huge clean rooms, friendly staff, nice warm breakfast. Close to shopping. We enjoyed our stay here and would come again. The price was modest to fit our budget and we got good value for our dollar
My husband and I booked very last minute and arrived late at night with an early morning flight the next day, so it's hard to say how we would have liked staying longer, but we had no complaints and really enjoyed our stay. The staff were professional, helpful, and friendly. The setup of the building was different from any other...
Stuck in NY with a shut down airplane in the 2016 Blizzard. These folks were great. Four meals - two that were great Italian! Managers were pleasant and went beyond the call to be helpful. Thanks to all of you! G&K Wilson 1/22, 23, 2016
Stayed for one night. This was trip of necessity, not for pleasure. But we were pleasantly surprised that the hotel was nicely decorated and offered a good nights stay. The bed was comfortable, the room was pleasant, the bathroom was clean. The morning breakfast to us is always a nice touch. We have seen better, but it did offer juice,...
I'll start with the positive. The front desk people were friendly and the room was clean. On the other hand the wallpaper was peeling off the wall (see picture) and the furniture was old and worn. The bed was very uncomfortable and the sheets were scratchy, not sandpaper scratchy but much scratchier than other hotels. The pillows were dismal, skimpy...
Hotel is older but very clean. Staff is accommodating to airline crew. Hotel offers competitive crew rate for the area, day rate and late check out for crew. Nice downtown area in walking distance - less than a mile. Free breakfast and wifi available.
I visit this hotel between 5 and 15 times per year. The staff are consistently pleasant, helpful and flexible, the rooms are clean and functional. The airport shuttle is reliable and there is a free breakfast included with your stay! Every room has a small fridge, microwave, coffee maker and sofa. The RVCI is not fancy, but it is a...
My boyfriend and I stayed there this weekend, and we really enjoyed the stay. It was very cozy and private. I will definitely stay there again. We loved the continental breakfast and the staff was very pleasant. I want to give a special compliment to Mark and Terri!!! If you are in town I definitely recommend RCI!!!!
We were visiting this area for a milestone birthday party and this was the hotel that was selected for the family to stay overnight. Prior to coming here I had read the reviews and decided to keep an open mind. I travel to various cities and consider myself somewhat "OCD" when it comes to my accommodations. I don't think this...
Front desk staff rude. Rooms smell. Mold growing in bathroom and air conditioner unit. Little parking. Pillows are terrible. Towel thin and did not smell clean. Bathroom door wouldn't close. Did I mention mold!!!!
Was not given the type of room requested.
"On a quiet street. All rooms were good"
"We asked for a quite room and got a room in the back which was quiet."
"All rooms face the parking lot."
"Ask for a room facing the residential area. High floors are less noisy."
"All non-smoking, all at back of hotel. Our room at the very end, away from elevator was very quiet."
