The School of Pharmacy experienced great successes over the past year. Our faculty, staff and students continued to distinguish themselves and the School of Pharmacy as leaders in pharmacy education and practice. Examples of this include two faculty-led grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The only NIH designated center at SIUE, the Center of Excellence in Pain Education (COePE) is directed by one of our faculty members. This unique inter-professional, inter-university endeavor, in collaboration with Saint Louis University, is the only one of its kind in the Midwest. Other examples of dedication to the core areas of excellence in scholarship, teaching and service are captured in this Dean's Report. New and exciting programs have come to fruition over the past year which will give our students the opportunity to expand their knowledge and experience prior to graduation. Beginning Fall 2012, our students can concurrently pursue their Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) and Master of Business Administration through our School of Pharmacy and SIUE's internationally accredited School of Business. This option will prepare our students to be future entrepreneurs who advance the pharmacy profession. Another avenue our students can pursue is an Education Specialization during their Pharm.D. Additionally, our School now has twelve affiliated post-graduate residency
programs, one of these providing specialized training in infectious diseases. With team-based care now being a practice imperative, we have partnered with the SIU School of Dental Medicine to create an inter-professional ethics exercise in which the Pharm.D. and Doctor of Dental Medicine students will work together on patient cases. The Academy of Student Pharmacists chapter at our School was awarded the American Pharmacists Association Chapter Achievement Runner-up Award at the national level for the second year in a row. I am also proud to report that one of our students was named chair of the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists Community and eCommunications Advisory Group. As the School prepares to embrace our future, we have embarked on a strategic planning exercise that involves all our stakeholders. We plan to celebrate our areas of excellence, find opportunities and secure resources to catapult the School to the next level. As we move forward in the years ahead, we will continue to engage our alumni and supporters as partners in our efforts to make positive change in the pharmacy profession.
Warm Regards,
Gireesh V. Gupchup, Ph.D., FAPhA Professor and Dean, SIUE School of Pharmacy

Research and Teaching
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Dr. Joseph Schober & Dr. Keith Hecht
Tackling Cancer From Two Perspectives: Research and Practice The importance of sharing research findings with students is not overlooked by Dr. Joseph Schober and Dr. Keith Hecht. This is especially true when the subject matter affects each and every one of their students' families or friends: cancer. Schober and Hecht, are faced daily with the effects that cancer has on society, though they approach the subject matter in very different ways. Each spring, Schober and Hecht co-teach Integrated Pharmacotherapeutics: Oncology/Hematology to the third year pharmacy students. Schober, assistant professor of pharmaceutical sciences and an expert in cancer cell motility, leads the first section of the class, which focuses on the mechanics of the drug and the physiology of the disease. Hecht, clinical associate professor of pharmacy practice and expert in oncology pharmacy practice, leads the second section of the class, which details the clinical and practical knowledge of chemotherapy and therapeutic drugs. In addition to co-classroom teaching, Schober and Hecht conduct research individually with an ultimate goal of limiting the number of people that cancer effects. Schober's research focuses on cell biology, specifically cell movement. "In cancer, cells need to move," he said. "The big problem with cancer is cell metastasis, or the spread of cells from the place where it first started to another place in the body. If we can have a deeper understanding of cell movement and how it works, then maybe we can figure out how to stop it. If we can stop it, then maybe we can stop cancer." On the other end of the spectrum, Hecht researches ways to help patients who are currently receiving cancer treatments. "The most common side effect of chemotherapy is vomiting," he said. "There are various medications approved to help prevent this side effect, but they aren't necessarily utilized because health care providers are unaware of where they fit in a medication plan. We want to make sure we are using these medications appropriately and not exposing patients to unnecessary risks." By combining research and clinical knowledge, the School of Pharmacy provides an extremely valuable tool to help students improve medication use in society and advance patient care. "The role of pharmacists in treating cancer has expanded more than most other areas for pharmacy," Hecht said. "Our School is preparing pharmacists to understand the science behind cancer and to educate patients on how to fight their disease. We are not only focusing on the patients' side effects, but making sure the student pharmacists are providing the education their patients need."
Research on Diabetes: A Shot at a Cure Millions of Americans have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, the most common form of diabetes. Many more are unaware that they are at high risk for developing the disease. Dr. Guim Kwon, associate professor of pharmaceutical sciences, is determined to find ways to prevent or cure this disease. According to Kwon, type 2 diabetes is usually found in adults and appears to be closely linked with obesity, which she calls a global epidemic. Due to the rise in obesity, Kwon is working to understand the link between type 2 diabetes and obesity and is ultimately seeking to develop new drugs for treatment of type 2 diabetes. Obese individuals have higher levels of nutrients, glucose and free fatty acids in the blood, which causes insulin resistance (reduced insulin action). According to Kwon, these high nutrients also affect pancreatic beta cells that release insulin into the circulation so bloodglucose levels can be controlled. "High nutrients cause toxic effects on beta cells, reducing their ability to synthesize and release insulin or even beta cell death," Kwon said. "That is why people with advanced type 2 diabetes must receive insulin shots. Due to dysfunction and destruction of beta cells, insulin release from beta cells is not adequate to control blood glucose levels. "The incidence of type 2 diabetes has been increasing proportionally to the rate of obesity. A new drug that can prevent, treat or reverse type 2 diabetes will have a huge impact on not only our community, but also millions of people around the world." Kwon teaches pharmacology sections of principles of drug action and cardiovascular therapeutics courses. Kwon enjoys teaching and interacting with students. She brings her passion and love of science into classroom. "I hope to inspire students to have love of learning and aspire to understand why things are happening the way they are," said Kwon. Through her research, Kwon's objective is to make a contribution to finding a cure for diabetes. "Diabetes can be controlled with a proper diet and exercise, but it is hard to have people follow a healthy regimen," she said. "Realistically, developing anti-diabetic agents that prevent or treat obesity-induced type 2 diabetes may be more effective in curbing the rise of type 2 diabetes."
Guim Kwon, Ph.D., was awarded a $429,000 grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to support her research project "Human Beta-cell Metabolism Signaling Under Chronic Nutrient Overload."
Researching Student Empathy Dr. Jessica Kerr, associate professor of pharmacy practice, also conducts diabetes research, focusing most recently on her scholarly teaching of empathy for diabetes patients. Kerr's students actively learn with patient simulation to develop empathy and learn how to better communicate with the intention of improving medication management and education for patients with diabetes.
Expanding Residency Opportunities Dr. Scott Bergman, associate professor of pharmacy practice, had a specific objective in mind to advance the pharmacy education of infectious diseases at SIUE: establish a post-graduate year two (PGY2) pharmacy residency. In the spring of 2012, Bergman's goal was realized when he became the program director for the Infectious Diseases Pharmacotherapy Residency at St. John's Hospital in Springfield, Ill. Through the assistance of a grant from the Society of Infectious Disease Pharmacists, Bergman designed the PGY2 residency to build upon the competencies developed by a post-graduate year one (PGY1) pharmacy residency. This PGY2 residency, completed in one year, provides a structured education and training experience for pharmacists looking to develop additional clinical expertise in infectious disease pharmacotherapy. Students are immersed in a progressive clinical environment where there is substantial opportunity for direct patient care and consultation. "The Pharm.D. curriculum is a great introduction to infectious disease and prepares students to perform the basics," Bergman said. "Residencies take the students to a more advanced level. In the PGY2, we will focus on critical thinking. Not only are the students asked to report what they see, but they are asked to interpret and analyze so they are able to customize recommendations for specific patients. "Residents and I will go on patient care rounds with the infectious disease physicians and recommend doses and durations of antibiotics, monitor for side effects, and check for drug interactions. We see patients with the most difficult to treat infections. It's a rewarding opportunity for students to work with multidisciplinary teams and be a part of the prescribing process." Upon completion of the specialty PGY2 residency program, the residents will possess the knowledge and skills to function as independent clinical practitioners and members of a multidisciplinary team to provide patient-centered care for patients with infectious diseases and to improve the utilization of antimicrobial stewardship, or the appropriate use of antibiotics and prescribing practices toward evidence-based choices. The dual focus of the program on infectious diseases and teaching will prepare residents to become effective educators of pharmacotherapeutic topics in the practice area of infectious diseases in the clinical and academic setting.

Inter-Professional Education
Receiving National Recognition SIUE was recognized by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Pain Consortium as a designated Center of Excellence in Pain Education (CoEPE) and was one of 12 universities to be acknowledged for this type of award. "This is an incredibly exciting opportunity," said Dr. Chris Herndon, associate professor of pharmacy and principal investigator for the CoEPE. "The subsequent impact on patient care for those in pain within our region will be immeasurable." Chronic pain affects about 100 million Americans, costing up to $635 billion in medical treatment and lost productivity, and producing significant suffering for people of all ages. Though many medications exist to treat chronic pain, unintended side effects can occur. More and more, the health-related fields are seeing the need to develop a variety of pain management approaches. Yet, pain treatment is not taught extensively in many health professional schools, resulting in inconsistent and sometimes inadequate patient care.
its treatment. Twenty institutes, centers and offices at NIH are involved in the consortium. Along with curriculum development, the CoEPE will serve as an expert resource on pain management education of health professionals nationwide. In the company of other nationally recognized institutions, SIUE and its partners, Southern Illinois University School of Medicine and Saint Louis University, stand out this year as the only designated Midwestern CoEPE. Herndon emphasized that this is a multidisciplinary, multiuniversity endeavor. He called upon fellow health care educators whom he knew to be passionate for inter-professional learning to develop the grant proposal. "Each faculty lead is responsible for developing course content that is applicable to his or her area," Herndon said. "As leaders in higher education, it is vital that we collaborate and develop ways for our students to learn from each other and alongside each other."
The CoEPEs will act as hubs for the development, evaluation and distribution of pain management curriculum resources for medical, dental, nursing and pharmacy schools to enhance and improve how health care professionals are taught about pain and

Critical Members of the Health Care Team
A Partner in Community Outreach When a psychiatrist, nurse or social worker at Places for People, a non profit community mental health center in St. Louis, has a concern about a client's medication, Dr. Kelly Gable will get a call. Gable, a board certified psychiatric pharmacist and assistant professor of pharmacy practice, has served on the treatment team at Places for People in St. Louis since 2008. She initiated a partnership with the organization because of her strong belief in their mission to provide innovative and effective mental health services to the underserved. Though the organization's administrators were not initially convinced that a pharmacist could benefit their clients, they gave Gable an opportunity to showcase her expertise. They quickly saw how beneficial it was to have a pharmacist available and soon Gable was integrated into several treatment teams within the agency. Teams consisting of nurses, psychiatrists, social workers, substance abuse specialists and Gable as the clinical pharmacist see hundreds of clients in the St. Louis community each week. Gable's contribution lies in her ability as a medication expert. She collaborates with other health care professionals on patient medication issues, specifically drug selection and dosing, medication therapy management and safety checks for drug interactions. Dr. Kelly Gable
"I serve as a pharmacy resource," said Gable. "I visit with clients at their homes or wherever they may be staying, as a majority of clients begin treatment homeless. The goal is to get them on the right medications in order to aid in their recovery and enhance their ability to lead better lives." Pharmacy students have the opportunity to become part of Places for People treatment teams when they complete Gable's behavioral health rotation in their final year of study. This rotation allows students to interact with a team of health care providers, ultimately providing a well-rounded experience. "It is rewarding for the students because Places for People team members will come to them as the medication experts, allowing the students to gain confidence in their medication knowledge." Gable has always believed in the collaboration between healthcare professionals to positively affect clients' health and well-being. "The pharmacist is a key player in ensuring that people are getting the right medications and educating them on the benefits and side effects associated with each treatment," said Gable. "The longer you are in this line of work, you realize that we aren't just here to help people with medication concerns. We are also here to help people through their life struggles. It's inspiring."
"Working with our pharmacy students inspires me daily." -Dr. Lisa Lubsch Best of Both Worlds: Academic and Clinical One size does not fit all. Whether it is the fit of a hat or a patient's reaction to a medication, there is often no universal solution. No one understands individual differences better than Dr. Lisa Lubsch, clinical associate professor of pharmacy and clinical pharmacist specialist at SSM Cardinal Glennon Children's Medical Center in St. Louis. An expert in pediatric pharmacy, Lubsch states that her biggest role in the clinical setting is making sure the patients' medicines are safe and effective. Because children may process medications differently, the best doses, frequency, and type of medications vary on weight, metabolism, development and other factors.
Dr. Lisa Lubsch
"Children are different than adults," said Lubsch. "With adults, you can pick a drug and there is a normal dose that they can receive. Extra thought is required with children. You have to calculate the particular dose for each individual child. And then, like all patients, we must monitor the drug to ensure it remains appropriate for their treatment." Lubsch is able to combine her passions of teaching and service by caring for patients with a team of medical professionals, which includes doctors, residents, medical students, nurses and pharmacy students. It is during her teaching responsibilities that Lubsch feels she receives the biggest rewards. "Working with our pharmacy students inspires me daily," she said. "I appreciate witnessing the connections they make with classroom studies and their clinical rotations, whether I had a hand in it or they learned it on their own. Watching them grow as professionals is fulfilling work." Not only do the students get to work side-by-side with Lubsch in clinical settings, they are also involved with each patient's interdisciplinary medical team. "Every student that I have had with me at Cardinal Glennon appreciates the team rounding because they don't typically get that on other rotations," Lubsch said. "It is well-proven that the patient's therapy is more appropriate when a pharmacist, the medication expert, is an available resource to both the physicians and the families. "Working alongside medical professionals is a great opportunity for our pharmacy students. Their involvement in this comprehensive process, especially at a specialized pediatric health care facility, is significant. I am grateful to be a part of both worlds."
Supporting Student Success
Support in Time of Need "There is no better way to support the profession of pharmacy than to remove some of the barriers, even small barriers, that keep students from reaching their goals," said Connie Stamper-Carr, director of student services in the School of Pharmacy. In 2005, the School of Pharmacy established the Student Emergency Fund. This fund provides limited emergency financial assistance to pharmacy students who are unable to meet immediate, essential expenses because of temporary hardship related to an emergency situation or catastrophic event. Stamper-Carr said the School's main goal for the fund is to support students during their time of need. "We recognize that our students have lives and things happen to them," she said. "The pharmacy program is so rigorous that when you throw another wrench in there, life can get overwhelming. We want to be able to provide some assistance." The funds, raised through the School's annual golf scramble and from other generous donors, are distributed to students for various reasons. "Every year, P4 students access the funds to assist with travel expenses for their rotations," said Stamper-Carr. "Other issues have included medical emergencies for the students or their immediate family members, and natural disasters." Kamila Truitt, '12, is a grateful recipient of Student Emergency Funds. Truitt's mother passed away which put her in a financial bind. "In my time of stress, when I wasn't financially able to support myself, the funds allowed me to stay focused on school," said Truitt. "It gave me the support I needed to finish the program." Currently living in Springfield, Mo., Truitt is a pharmacist for Walgreens. "My future plans include building a community outreach center that will focus on medication education," she said. "This goal wouldn't have been possible if I didn't receive financial assistance from the School of Pharmacy."
If you are interested in contributing to the Student Emergency Fund, please contact the School of Pharmacy Development Office at email@example.com or (618) 650-5154. The Student Emergency Fund is supported by the annual SIUE School of Pharmacy Golf Scramble, which is held each fall. The event, featuring 18-holes of golf in a four-person scramble format, has been sponsored by Walgreens and held in conjunction with a pharmacy continuing education course.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Yasmyn Knight
Diversity Camp Leads to Career Decision Yasmyn Knight was undecided on her career path after graduating from Edwardsville High School in 2011. However, after three days at the SIUE School of Pharmacy Diversity Camp, her decision was made. Recognizing the value of increased diversity in the Doctor of Pharmacy student body, the School of Pharmacy established a summer camp in 2009 for high school seniors interested in pursuing a pharmacy degree. The goal was to expose students to careers in pharmacy and guide them along their journey to pharmacy school. Three years later, the program has seen great enthusiasm and success. "Before attending the camp, I had some interest in becoming a pharmacist," said Knight. "I was still on the edge with my decision, because I didn't know if this path was a possibility for me. During camp, the SIUE faculty members reassured me that I had the potential to be a pharmacist if I worked hard. Now, I know it's what I am supposed to do." Knight was initially inspired to pursue pharmacy as a career because of her family's pharmacist. "My older sister, Kimberly, is disabled," she said. "Growing up, my mom would have to contact our pharmacist to discuss Kimberly's medications. I thought it was amazing that he always knew what medicines she could and couldn't take. Our pharmacist did a lot for my family. I would like to do the same for someone else." Students selected to attend the Diversity Camp spend time at the School of Pharmacy and local pharmacy practice sites, performing hands-on activities and developing skills that will be useful to them in becoming successful college students. This free program is open to upcoming high school seniors in Madison County, Ill., St. Clair County, Ill., St. Louis County, Mo. and the city of St. Louis. Currently a sophomore pre-pharmacy student, Knight is eager to apply for the Pharm.D. program and is excited about her future. "Growing up, I always knew that I was drawn to the medical field," said Knight. "I was always hesitant, though, because you don't see a lot of diversity in the medical field. The camp was encouraging because there were several diverse faculty members. It opened my eyes to a lot of opportunities."

Four Generations
My great-granddad, Ezra Harmon, became a registered pharmacist in 1945. My granddad, Jack Harmon, became a pharmacist in 1959, and my dad, Thad Harmon, graduated with his pharmacy degree in 1997. Since kindergarten, I knew I was going to be a pharmacist. I really loved the idea of taking care of people and developing a relationship with my patients and community.

Defining Excellence
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Dr. Ron Worthington
Expressing Gratitude This year, the SIUE School of Pharmacy graduates banded together to raise funds for a gift to the School, one that reflects their spirit, their sense of community and connection, and their gratitude. The Class of 2012 established a student scholarship in honor of their faculty advisor Dr. Ron Worthington, associate professor of pharmaceutical sciences. "Not only did we want to establish a scholarship that would impact future pharmacy students, we wanted to thank Dr. Worthington for his dedication to us as a class," said J. Cody Sandusky, Class of 2012 president. "Dr. Worthington was a great mentor to my classmates and me. Whether he was offering advice or just lending an ear, he served as a fatherly figure to most of us. He's a great guy worthy of this honor." Worthington began his career at SIUE in 2005 when the School of Pharmacy opened its doors. A specialist in pharmacogenomics, molecular biology, pharmaceutical biotechnology and genetic engineering, Worthington said that his favorite memory with the Class of 2012 was the night he received this recognition. "I knew the class was going to establish a scholarship of some kind with the School because we talked about that early on in their fundraising," said Worthington. "I had no clue that they were going to associate my name to the award. It means a great deal to me. It's an expression of their appreciation of me as a teacher, and that is the highest accolade that a teacher can get. I'm deeply honored." The Dr. R. Worthington Award of Excellence is a $500 award that will be given annually to a P3 student who exhibits leadership and dedication to the profession of pharmacy and community service. The Class of 2012 held a variety of events and activities throughout the final three years of their program to raise funds for a graduation party and to establish this scholarship. "We are proud to say that this award will continue on for many years, and we hope it becomes meaningful to those that will follow in our footsteps," said Sandusky.
Commencement J. Cody Sandusky was selected as the student speaker for May 2012 Commencement. To view his commencement speech and watch the Class of 2012 participate in their ceremony, visit siue.edu/pharmacy.

Mahou Neko Princess Cutie-Kat
I semi-regularly follow ANN's Answerman section, purely to see what kind of idiotic questions that the poor guy gets from the Narutards/\*replace-with-series-name\*-tards, which at times makes me sigh on the follies of mankind and at other times, just makes me LMAO.
Recently, the column's been running a few contests, which at first ranged from simple "fill-in-the-empty-captions" style contests, which really only yielded lameness. But the most recent one had me in stitches as he challenged readers to submit in plot ideas for "over-the-top, ridiculously cliched shows" and threw in quite a nice stash of stuff for the winners.
Finally, he seems to have found one, "The Adventures of Magical Kitty Princess Cutie-Kat" which claims to tell the story of a \*normal\* girl who trips over a kitten one day and gets bestowed with magical powers.
Reading on the complete synopsis really makes me LOL and, same with Mr.Answerman, I also admire Ms. Wendy's (I selfishly assume :) dedication as well, as she even set up "fansite" for her show too :).
Mr.Answerman's also going to put up runner-ups for his contest later as well, so I gladly wait to see for more hackneyed plot ideas and anime cliché's ;).

15 Instagram Accounts to Update Your Feed With Now
Krrb is now part of the Apartment Therapy family! Check out the Marketplace for an even wider selection of furnishings and home decor.
Visit the Apartment Therapy Marketplace »
Social media is a great source for finding visual stimulation from others, but is your feed feeling a bit stale lately? The summer is a great time to update who you follow. I've gone ahead and put together a list of some of my personal favorite Instagram accounts to add to your scrolling routine. Check them out and update your feed with some new creative inspiration!
Michelle Solobay of @michellesolobay is killing the design game over in Washington, D.C. Her style of incorporating darker pieces into bright white rooms is interior perfection.
Casey Lea Stephenson of @caseypins is a Florida-based stylist who can turn any event or set into something truly beautiful. Be forewarned: the beachy lifestyle documented in her feed will result in some major coastal envy.
The Chicago lifestyle collective @foxtailsandmoss supports local creative communities and shares their projects and gatherings via social media. Indulge in their bohemian vibes and mimic their style with trendy accents for a relaxed look!
Jess and Matt Craven of @cravenhomestead are a dynamic duo made up of a photographer and an engineer. Their minimalist photos will inspire you to shed some unneeded items in your space to give it a more clean feel.
Emily Katz of @emily_katz makes some seriously awesome macrame weavings in Portland, Oregon. Since she is an artist, you can only imagine her taste is always aesthetically on point.
Colleen Ludovice of @inspiredtoshare may be a wife, a dreamer and a dog mom—but she also has some serious style. Her feed includes peeks inside her home and the traditional elements that make it cozy!
Lifestyle blogger Evelyn Roxana of @mermaidwishing often shares interior shots of some of my favorite types of homes. Striking elements like dark wood floors, white walls and minimal furniture—it's almost impossible not to feel her influence.
Dylan Slade of @sladeways blogs alongside Scarlet Rose and shares some of the beautiful images on his personal Instagram account. His love of greenery, evident in his photography, will have you collecting loads of houseplants.
Ariele Alasko of @arielealasko makes intricate pieces out of wood. Photos of her woodwork home goods and sculptures will have you double tapping your phone and most likely purchasing a piece by Ariele for your own collection!
The pictures you'll see from Nam of @mell0wfell0w span the world. Whether you're looking at interiors in Brooklyn or Paris- they are all gorgeously showcased. Don't blame us if you get a case of wanderlust.
Justin Chung of @justinchung is a photographer that documents moments with simplicity that truly let the subjects of his photos speak for themselves. There's a range of depth in his work, but I'm truly blown away by his interior shots.
Kelly Vittengl of @francesloom is a self-proclaimed "rug slinger" based in Los Angeles. She curates gorgeous collections of antique rugs, follow her feed for a fix of vintage textiles.
Polina of @po.lin.a is a graphic web designer who certainly has an eye for design. The composition of her photos accentuates details of items that not everybody may be drawn to on their own.
Lynn Kostelny of @lynnkostelny lives in Philadelphia and showcases lush interiors that make us want to add a plant or two (or three or four) to any empty corner. The unique types of plants and arrangements has me planning my next green thumb project!
Fawn DeViney of @sfawnd is a photographer who splits her time between Boston and Phoenix doing what she does best. She's inspired by both neutral palettes and striking elements, which is what helps make her pictures so breathtaking. Are you going to want to paint all of your walls stark white after looking? Definitely.
Any other Instagram accounts we should check out? Let us know in the comments and of course, don't forget to follow Krrb for local content!

One of the greatest secrets of all time is about to be revealed in an epic archaeological thriller from the grandson of Ernest Hemingway
Alexander was one of the greatest leaders of all time. After he died, his tomb was the most renowned and respected shrine in the Roman Empire, the object of veneration by great emperors and leaders the world over. It stood at the heart of the grandest city on earth. And then it disappeared. Centuries later, on a dig in Crete, curator and archaeologist Tom Carr is convinced that he's discovered a vital clue. At his side is a beautiful young artist, Victoria Price. Together, they are prepared to risk everything to find the tomb, and solve one of the most enduring mysteries of our time.

Don't Hide A Body At A Golf Course
By Kickntrue on 1/8/09
A murdered body was found on a golf course in Grover, California, at the California Pismo State Beach Golf Course.
Anyone who's watched tv for more than 10 minutes (or read this) knows you don't put a body in a public location. The details of the murder were not released, but let's hope it was a very bad man killing another very bad man.
Things like this frustrate me very much. If you ever want to be depressed for a day, look up what percentage of murders go unsolved.
Full Story
[ comments ]
Tim Horan says:
A slight de-sensitizing there...(murdered body) at the time of the murder he was someone's son, maybe someone's brother or partner. I hope, like you he was a bad man and deserved it...all too often though it is the good and innocent. My heart felt sympathy to the family and the community that cannot help but be affected by this heinous crime.
golfray says:
His last words were, BirdieChanceFeet divided by..............
BAKE_DAWG40 says:
So sad. For the record, if my body is ever found on a golf course I'll give a dollar a donut my wife is the culprit.
TheBrownCrayon says:
If my body is found on a golf course, it is probably for choking on a 4 footer.

Live from 1 PM: Guardian debate: The next election: threat or opportunity? Simon Hoggart will be chairing, with Chris Huhne, Sarah Teather, John Curtice and Menzies Campbell on the panel.
1.05 PM: I'm in the front row of the De Vere suite at the Royal Bath hotel and the room is filling up fast. I guess the venue will take around 300 people.
1.10 PM: The best fringe meetings at the Lib Dem conference tend to "sell out", because this is a party with only a handful of real stars, and I expect they'll end up having to turn people away.
Chris Huhne has arrived. He's on the platform with Sir Menzies Campbell and Prof John Curtice, the Strathclyde psephologist. Sarah Teather was supposed to be here too, but she doesn't seem to be coming.
1.10 PM: They're here to debate: The next election: threat or opportunity? As we've reported earlier, some Lib Dem activists have been warning today about the prospect of the party losing seats to the Tories at the next election. We'll hear what the panel think.
Simon Hoggart, who is chairing, opens the meeting and invites Curtice to start.
Curtice says he'll tell us how the election could be an opportunity, and how it could be a threat. How very even-handed. (That's academics for you.) He'll conclude it's a gamble, he says.
1.15 PM: There are now almost as many seats where the Lib Dems are close behind Labour as there are where they are close behind the Tories, he says. So in theory Labour's unpopularity should present an opportunity.
Curtice says he's always thought the Lib Dems best chance of getting "leverage" in British politics lies in a hung parliament. But the Lib Dems needs to sort out what they would do. He points out that the Lib Dems' failure to strike a coalition deal after the last Welsh assembly election gave Rhodri Morgan the chance to regroup.
1.15 PM: As for threats, Curtice says for every two people switching from Labour to the Lib Dems, there are three switching from Labour to the Tories.
What's really happening, Curtice suggests, is that the Lib Dems are taking a gamble. He says he's referring to the way Nick Clegg has repositioned the party as one that would cut the overall burden of tax, not increase it. This seems to be in tune with popular opinion. But changing policy on its own is not enough; you have to be able to sell it.
Will the public believe the party has really changed, he asks?
1.20 PM: How many people in Bournemouth would be able to tell you that the Lib Dems are now committed to cutting income tax by 4p (or the equivalent) for low earners? Good question. (Hardly any is the answer, I expect.)
The other potential problem is that the policy could make it harder for the party to attract support from ex-Labour voters.
Hoggart tells us that Teather isn't here because she fell ill after a trip to Nigeria.
Huhne comes next. I've just noticed his tie - Technicolor red. Does he pinch them from Jon Snow?
Commenting on the polls, Huhne says the Lib Dems have almost always picked up support during a general election campaign as a result of the media coverage they get. The only time this did not happen was when they had two leaders who rowed about tax during the campaign (Steel and Owen in 1987).
1.25 PM: The Lib Dems are also better than other parties at developing an "incumbency factor", he says, quoting a Nuffield study. This apparently is worth 6.6% of the vote.
1.25 PM: And because the Lib Dems have a relatively young parliamentary party, they have proportionally fewer MPs retiring, which means they do not lose the incumbency factor in seats being contested by new candidates.
Moving on to Labour, he says that, even with a new leader, Labour's vote is likely to fall. the Lib Dems have the potential to make very significant gains. (Not everyone in the party agrees - as I've blogged elsewhere today.)
1.30 PM: But Huhne wants to focus on the Tories. He says that, although they appear to be doing well, they are vulnerable, not least because their contention that they are the party of fairness is extremely dubious.
1.30 PM: To get a majority of one, Cameron needs a swing of 6.9%. This would be bigger than any previous swing to the Tories, he says.
1.35 PM: Huhne moves on to the tax package being debated this afternoon, which shows that the Lib Dems are the party of fairness, he says. For the first time, he's getting people coming to him in his constituency saying that they are struggling with their bills. The "progressive" response is to offer them support, he says.
So the next election is an opportunity, he concludes.
Campbell starts, taking his jacket off. "I can say without fear of contradiction that this is not a leadership bid," he jokes. Funny to think he was running the show 12 months ago. As well as today's debate, he is doing one or two other fringe meetings. But he's not appearing on the conference platform.
1.35 PM: He says he was labelled in one of the papers today as a "centre-left politician". "I plead guilty," he says, to applause. Like Stephen Williams and Vincent Cable yesterday, he doesn't seem to have accepted the Clegg notion that the Lib Dems are neutral between Labour and the Tories.
1.35 PM: The poor pay a higher proportion of their incomes in taxation than the rich, he says. When that is compounded by a Gordon Brown sleight of hand on taxation "worthy of Paul Daniels", then the case for reform is even stronger.
1.40 PM: Campbell moves on to Europe, saying he won't resile from his belief in the benefits of the EU. More applause. (Huhne didn't get applause until the end of his speech, although I wouldn't read too much into that.) Of course, there are aspects of the EU that need to be reformed. But reform will only happen if Britain engages with the EU.
1.40 PM: He says Cameron's inheritance tax plans show that the Tories are not committed to fairness. And Labour's record has shown it to be the most authoritarian government for the last 100 years.
1.40 PM: Moving on to foreign policy, he derides Cameron for going to Tbilisi and urging the Georgians to join an EU that his own party dislikes. And he says Cameron described himself as a liberal conservative in a speech in Pakistan because he could not use that phrase at home.
1.45 PM: Campbell says one of the reasons he is so keen to describe himself as a politician of the centre-left is that there is no other party on the centre-left now. It's a powerful point, which seems to blow a hole in Clegg's repositioning manoeuvres (although, to be fair, Clegg refuses to use labels like left and right himself, arguing, with some justice, that they are misleading).
Campbell also says that he would not support any deal with another party that did not involve early legislation on electoral reform.
We're on to questions now. After a quick dig at Europe, another questioner, in response to Huhne, says he is still waiting for the "late surge" promised in 1987.
1.45 PM: Curtice says he doesn't think Europe will be an issue in the general election, although beating Ukip in the European elections next year could be "quite a considerable task".
1.50 PM: Picking up on Campbell's point about PR, Curtice says that in Wales electoral reform would have been part of the deal leading to a Tory-Plaid Cymru-Liberal Democrat coalition. But that pact fell through. He says the chances of the Tories offering PR after the election are almost zero. The Lib Dems need to decide whether they would want to trigger an early second election.
1.55 PM: Huhne says the Lib Dems are the only party offering a referendum on EU membership.
1.55 PM: Campbell says there were "quite a lot of sleepless nights" for him and Charles Kennedy when they came out against the Iraq war. (He is picking up a point about judgment made by one of the questioners.) He says he attended the Democratic convention recently. If the Democrats win, the prospects of the White House pursuing a Bush-style aggressive foreign policy would be extremely unlikely. Even if the Republicans win, American foreign policy would be different because the Americans are losing their appetite for war, he says. From here, Campbell segues into a point about the EU being more important than ever.
2.00 PM: Another question. Someone suggests the local income tax policy will be hard to sell.
Curtice says that Cable's speech this morning will not have gone down well with well-paid public sector workers (who will have to reapply for their jobs and take a pay cut). He warns that the party is giving out mixed messages.
Huhne says the party's tax message is very clear.
2.00 PM: Campbell says average household income in Britain is £25,000 a year. The local income tax plan would only expect people to pay more if they are earning more than £75,000 a year. There are millions of people "in very straitened circumstances". That's why the Lib Dem tax plans being proposed this afternoon are correct.
The verdict: I'm not sure that we learned much more about what will happen to the Lib Dems at the next election. Huhne had some thoughtful arguments as to why the Lib Dems could do better than expected, but his comments about the prospects of winning seats off Labour and about the Tory threat not being as serious as it looks were impressionistic. He didn't support them with electoral data.
The highlight of the meeting was Campbell's proud claim to be a centre-left politician in a country where Labour has abandoned the centre-left. He's well off-message. (Huhne is defending a seat where he is vulnerable to Tories keen to depict the Lib Dems as closet socialists.) But I guess his remarks reflect what many Lib Dem activists believe and, judging by his reception today, there seems to be a lot of residual affection for him in the party.

Implementation of a National Reference Laboratory for Buruli Ulcer Disease in Togo.
In: PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases 7(1), e2011
Background: In a previous study PCR analysis of clinical samples from suspected cases of Buruli ulcer disease (BUD) from Togo and external quality assurance (EQA) for local microscopy were conducted at an external reference laboratory in Germany. The relatively poor performance of local microscopy as well as effort and time associated with shipment of PCR samples necessitated the implementation of stringent EQA measures and availability of local laboratory capacity. This study describes the approach to implementation of a national BUD reference laboratory in Togo. Methodology: Large scale outreach activities accompanied by regular training programs for health care professionals were conducted in the regions ``Maritime'' and ``Central,'' standard operating procedures defined all processes in participating laboratories (regional, national and external reference laboratories) as well as the interaction between laboratories and partners in the field. Microscopy was conducted at regional level and slides were subjected to EQA at national and external reference laboratories. For PCR analysis, sample pairs were collected and subjected to a dry-reagent-based IS2404-PCR (DRB-PCR) at national level and standard IS2404 PCR followed by IS2404 qPCR analysis of negative samples at the external reference laboratory. Principal Findings: The inter-laboratory concordance rates for microscopy ranged from 89% to 94%; overall, microscopy confirmed 50% of all suspected BUD cases. The inter-laboratory concordance rate for PCR was 96% with an overall PCR case confirmation rate of 78%. Compared to a previous study, the rate of BUD patients with non-ulcerative lesions increased from 37% to 50%, the mean duration of disease before clinical diagnosis decreased significantly from 182.6 to 82.1 days among patients with ulcerative lesions, and the percentage of category III lesions decreased from 30.3% to 19.2%. Conclusions: High inter-laboratory concordance rates as well as case confirmation rates of 50% (microscopy), 71% (PCR at national level), and 78% (including qPCR confirmation at external reference laboratory) suggest high standards of BUD diagnostics. The increase of non-ulcerative lesions, as well as the decrease in diagnostic delay and category III lesions, prove the effect of comprehensive EQA and training measures involving also procedures outside the laboratory.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi expresses no regrets in an interview published today in Politico, predicting Democrats will "be back" in the majority.
She explained to veteran Congress reporter David Rogers that she has no regrets about her tenure, which is ending because Republicans won 63 seats in the 2010 midterm elections to gain control of the House of Representatives.
Pelosi, 70, was elected Democratic leader despite anger from fiscal conservatives such as Rep. Heath Shuler that the House Democratic caucus veered too far to the left under her leadership and cost the party the House majority.
"You don't say, 'I'm the speaker, so I should be the speaker forever.' I had this opportunity. What did we accomplish with it in the time we had? Now, as leader, how do we protect what we have done? It's not about an office or gavel," Pelosi said in the interview.
Announcing a goal of winning back at least 30 House seats, Pelosi said: "We'll be back."
Pelosi will hand the gavel to Republican John Boehner, who has been endorsed by his party as speaker, on Jan. 5.
In the Politico interview, Pelosi said "nothing compares" among her professional accomplishments to passage of the sweeping new health care law, which mandates that Americans carry health insurance. The law is coming under attack by states such as Virginia because of the mandate.
History was made in January 2007 when the House formally elected Pelosi, a liberal California Democrat, to be the first woman speaker, the political post that is second in line to the presidency.
Asked if she was treated fairly as a woman, Pelosi responded that she saw the good and the bad as she wielded the gavel. "You get the upside from being a woman because of the enthusiasm you receive, and you get the downside because there is an attitude you cannot deny," Pelosi said.

Should I get an older scar revised now, 1 month following a septorhinoplasty with grafting, or wait 1-2 yrs? (Photo)
I was burned by a laser a couple years ago on the side on my nose where the crease is. I recently had an open septorhinoplasty in which surgeon placed 2 sets of cartilage grafts to keep my nasal valves open. I am 1 month recovery and the grafts on the side of my nose are pushing out and making the scar contracture even more noticeable since it lies right below its placement on the nostril. You will see that the scar makes that side look different from other. The redness is broken capillaries.

The vehicle in your driveway symbolizes the best in class compared to all the other vehicles these days. You purchased your Torrent because its dependability and trustworthy transportation struck a chord inside you; so why would you settle for anything but the best when it comes to superior quality auto parts? Obviously, you didn't buy your Torrent unless you wanted to buy performance and great value both rolled up into one vehicle. When your Pontiac Torrent left the factory, it was destined for a person with discerning taste who wants an American name in their automobile.
The performance of your car or truck relies on a well-built suspension. The most overlooked components on your suspension are the sway bar bushings. As your Pontiac Torrent turns, the chassis rolls away from the turn slightly. As a result, your sway bar acts as a torsion spring; correcting the chassis flex. Your Pontiac Torrent sway bar bushings absorb the vibrations that would result from driving down the road, as well as keep the sway bar in place when it flexes during a turn.
Buy all the car parts you will ever need from carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. Given all the hassles associated with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the first place you go to make purchasing it easy. Get your Torrent back on the road with the best new or rebuilt parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. When it comes to Pontiac Torrent Sway Bar Bushing parts, you can find them for 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006 models by clicking the appropriate year below.
