text: Will do, Jason! (It will probably be a couple of weeks, since I still have to finish Mad Men and it is "clogging up" my Netflix queue at the moment.) Speaking of finishing things, I spent a bit of time this weekend deleting things off of my DVR and in a few cases finally watching the programs. One three-part BBC series really impressed me: In the Flesh. Let me start by saying zombie-themed stories are probably the last thing I ever want to watch. I have a decided absence of interest in zombie films, save for Shaun of the Dead, though I did rent Warm Bodies and found it enjoyable enough. I DVR'd In The Flesh when it aired on BBC America a few months ago and now it is coming to DVD on October 8th. (Here is the Amazon link.) It features Luke Newberry as a sufferer of PDS (Partially Deceased Syndrome) who is in a medically supervised treatment program and is returning to his family. Based on the promos, I thought this would be a comedy akin to Warm Bodies. What it turned out to be is a sweet, sometimes funny, sometimes tragic, often moving gay-friendly program. Here is a synopsis: After an event known as "The Rising," where everybody who died in the year 2015 has risen from the dead, an inevitable Zombie war breaks out as the human race battles to rid the planet of brain eating Zombies. When the war is eventually won by the living with heavy losses on both sides, the remaining undead are headed up and put in a holding center where Norfolk, now ravaged and destroyed by war, used to be. Scientists then discover a chemical compound which subdues the Zombie craving for brains and the government subsequently decides to release these Partially Deceased Syndrome (PDS) sufferers back into the community they had recently tried to destroy. here is where the story begins as we follow Keiren Walker, a young PDS sufferer, as he is returned back to his parents in a sleepy village. I do *not* think the DVD cover represents the series well; the images below are more accurate to the tone and look of the show. And this promo image This program is a not-too-subtle allegory for reintegrating any group of discriminated-against folks back into their families and into the larger society. While it does not seem like much of a spoiler to me, the reason this series is gay-friendly is because Spoiler the lead character is gay . Keiran's back-story is revealed while the events that originally led to his death start happening again; it makes for some incredible moments that I am still thinking about three days later. Reviews were very positive, including this review from The New York Times: If you've avoided vampire/zombie television until now because you think it's either dumb sci-fi or drippy romance aimed at teenagers,"In the Flesh,"[color=rgb(0,0,0);font-family:georgia, 'times new roman', times, serif;font-size:15px;] a three-part mini-series that begins Thursday on BBC America, gives you a chance to find out just how well written and layered some of these shows are...[/color] ...To watch "In the Flesh" is to be dismayed by how many real-world precedents the tale has. The list of people who have been reviled and labeled, explicitly or subtly, as something less than human is long: blacks, Jews, foreigners, people with AIDS, people with disabilities. Zombies notwithstanding, this appealing series, created and written by Dominic Mitchell, works this territory as credibly as any more conventional drama. -NEIL GENZLINGER for The New York Times I had no idea a zombie-themed program would make me feel so much. I guess it is time I give The Walking Dead a chance, eh? BTW, a second series in the works. The DVD does not have any specs listed other than an AR of 1.78:1. I am hoping for a commentary track, as I think it has the potential to be incredible.

Kesten was born in Nuremberg in 1900, son of a Jewish merchant. In the early 1920s, while a student in Frankfurt, he was already writing plays and forging literary plans. Even at this early stage he seems to have envisaged twin careers for himself, as a writer and as a publisher. Personal contacts - Kesten always relished the company of fellow writers and publishers - facilitated the move to Berlin to take up, in 1928, a post as an editor with the left-wing publisher Kiepenheuer. In the same year he published his first novel, Josef sucht die Freiheit ("Josef breaks free"). Reviewers were enthusiastic, and Kesten was awarded the prestigious Kleist Prize.
Two more novels quickly followed: Ein ausachweifender Mensch ("Running Riot", 1929) and Gluckliche Menschen ("Happy Man", 1931). Both were judged highly topical and were well received - the last was chosen as book of the year by Thomas Mann.
But his other career was not neglected. Kesten was a key figure in the innovative literary programme of Kiepenheuer. In 1929 he published a collection of new writing by 24 authors, a selection so judiciously representative that it was reprinted more than 50 years later. Kesten's publishing gifts were brought into even sharper, if unwelcome, focus by the catastrophic turn of events in 1933. Kesten saw where the turn was likely to lead: early in 1933 his friend and fellow-novelist Erich Kastner met him on the Kurfurstendamm, suitcase in hand - "Where are you going?", Kastner asked. "Paris." "For long?" "About 10 years," Kesten replied. He was in one sense nearly right, in another wholly wrong - he never again permanently settled in Germany.
In Paris Kesten began working for the Amsterdam publisher Allert de Lange. Amsterdam became a centre of exile for German book-publishing in the 1930s and Kesten, who moved there and became part of it, took seriously the task of creating communities and preserving continuities, editing banned writers known and unknown, past and present, from Heinrich Heine to Bertholt Brecht. His support of exiled writers was well known and it could take remarkably creative forms: in 1935 he wrote to his friend Klaus Mann suggesting "You should write a novel about a homosexual careerist in the Third Reich." Mann did - Mephisto was the result.
In 1940 Kesten emigrated to New York and later acquired American citizenship. Here too, as a central figure in the Emergency Rescue Committee, he assisted other refugee writers and, with Klaus Mann, edited a hugely influential anthology of European creative writing from 1920 to 1940, called Heart of Europe.
Throughout the Hitler years and beyond Kesten continued to write prolifically. Indeed the experience of those troubled times yielded fiction and non- fiction: novels tracing contrasting fates - Die Zwillinge von Nurnberg ("The Twins of Nuremberg", 1946) - or a Jew's recovery, against the odds, of his faith - Die fremden Gotter ("Strange Gods", 1949) - or biographies of seekers after varieties of freedom - Copernicus (1948) and Casanova (1952).
Kesten's periodic moves ( he lived in New York, in Munich, in Switzerland and for many years in Rome) did not sever his links with Germany. Distance and seniority gave him a special status as Germany, and German literature in particular, emerged from the ruins. In the 47 Group, by far most influential grouping of writers and critics in the 1950s and early 1960s, he was regarded as "the Old Master", "the kindly, almost paternal mentor". He embodied, it seemed, a continuity reaching back into the far-distant 1920s. The recognition was there - Kesten received many prizes, was elected President of West German PEN in 1972 - but mentors are more likely to fall behind than to lead. After speaking out against what he wrongly saw as the Communist sympathies of one of Germany's most promising writers, Uwe Johnson, in the early 1960s, he was increasingly seen - and sidelined - as an old- style liberal in a literary culture that sought newer styles of political commitment.
But the "paternal mentor" was no casual tag. The creative, preservative effects of Kesten's commitment to fellow writers during the dark years are incalculable. Nor is it incongruous that in one so committed to unbroken continuities his own early novels should seem to have lasted best. The three novels published between 1929 and 1931, with their ironically matter-of-fact handling of often macabre events are among the most vivid accounts in fiction of the moral chaos at the end of the Weimar Republic. As the critic Arthur Benjamin said, "Kesten's powerful realist gaze was penetrating those places where the world was trying to batten down the hatches."
Hermann Kesten, author, publisher: born Nuremberg 1900; married Toni Warowitz (died 1977); died Basle, Switzerland 3 May 1996.

Students take control of county government, for one day
Citizen Staff Reports 03/13/12
Dozens of high school students from Henrico County got a firsthand look at the county's general government and public schools administrations earlier this month when they shadowed elected and appointed officials for the 55th annual Student Government Day.
Student Government Day, held March 1, matched 93 students from nine high schools with such leaders as members of the Board of Supervisors and School Board, county manager, superintendent of schools, department directors and judges. The students, most of whom are seniors, spent the day learning the responsibilities of various departments and gaining insight into how local government works with and on behalf of the public in a democracy.
"It is the very best government on the face of the Earth," County Manager Virgil R. Hazelett told the students. "It does work because of the people we elect. We may not always agree, but it does work."
Student Government Day started Wednesday at Hermitage High School with a ceremony in which many of the students took the oath for their respective positions. All of the students reported to work early Thursday and spent the day asking questions and interacting with various officials. Students also had opportunities to tour the county jail and register to vote.
For students who worked at the Henrico Government Center on East Parham Road, the day culminated with a student-run meeting of the board of supervisors, which included rigorous questioning and debate over such issues as regulations on the discharge of air-powered guns, a contract for renovation and expansion of Fire Station 13 and a stream restoration project near Skipwith Elementary School.
Student Government Day is sponsored by the Kiwanis clubs of North Richmond, Tuckahoe and Greater Richmond.

One of our favorite things about Mariah Carey is that she's not afraid to flaunt what she's got. That usually takes the form of body-hugging micro-minis with a plunging neckline, or as we like to call it, diva wear. But this time the former American Idol judge stepped out in something fit for an indie rock after party; a gold polka dots all over this floor-length black skirt and midriff halter. Does this mean Mariah is trading in her famous pipes for an acoustic guitar?

Subscriber group). A few things that if possible would be nice to have with this: -Cron job or something that will check users subscriber status and if they are no longer subscribed take them out of the specified group for subscribers. -Display how many days left until users subscription runs out. -Display how long the users has been subscribed for. -Display other channels the user is subscribed to. I would be willing of course to help fund this to be made if need be (I can't contribute a lot but would definitely do what I can to help get this made). Why I think this would be a highly desired Add-on? With the growing popularity of Twitch and the involvement a lot of Streamers of with their subscribers I can see this being something many people might want to look into having for their twitch communities.

Some of the UK's most prestigious brands joined forces for an exclusive evening at Lingfield Park Resort on the 11th August– to say 'thank you' to some of their long standing clients.
'The Ultimate Collection was not only a celebration of all things beautiful, it was an example of how locally-based businesses can come together to deliver such an event'
It was a beautiful, warm evening and guests enjoyed a champagne and canapé reception in the parade ring where ex-Grand National jockey Mattie Batchelor gave an account of an insider's view of the jockey world.
Lingfield Park's Pavilion suite was transformed with exquisite décor including the Bentley Continental V8S Convertible. Beautiful images of Clive Christian luxury furniture for every room in the home adorned the walls of the suite alongside examples of couture dresses made by Bea Das, also from Sevenoaks. Completing the look was a dazzling diamond collection by diamond specialist Chafens.
Customers dined on sumptuous dinner and were entertained by the fabulous SingOut sisters, who got the whole house rocking to the sounds of Motown.
Lucia Jenkins, Marketing Manager of Bentley Kent, commented: 'This was an ideal showcase for Bentley; everyone was delighted to have the opportunity to view and admire the Continental V8S Convertible close up during the evening.

Fuel prices for the month of April will not be increased, the NPA has announced.
The National Petroleum Authority has maintained fuel prices for the month of April. According to the latest petroleum products price build-up schedule released by the NPA, the ex- pump price of a litre of premium or petrol is 3 cedis 5pesewas while kerosene is going for GHC2.92 Pesewas.
The others, including a litre of premix will sell at GHC1.57 Pesewas while a kilogram of LPG is GHC2.64 Pesewas. There has been huge pressure on the NPA to drastically reduce prices of petroleum products after it announced it had settled a 412 million cedi debt owed the Bulk Oil Distributing Companies in February.
Speaking to Citi News, the Executive Director of KITE-Ghana, Ismael Agyekumhene explained that the NPA had no choice than to maintain the price since an increase in prices of petroleum products would have been unjustifiable.
"The NPA knows that they ought to have reduced the prices by now… If they cant reduce it, then they cant also increase it eventhough there are times that the prices are going up, there is no justification that they have to increase it so maintaining the price is the obvious decision they had to take."

Over the past few years, we have ourselves been witnessing a minor resurgence of interest in novels about the First World War, with the success of Sebastian Faulks's bestselling Birdsong and Pat Barker's acclaimed trilogy, and so it is both timely and useful to be reminded of the original, much larger market for war books which opened in 1928, 10 years after the Armistice, and which finally petered out in the early Thirties, when the diminishing hopes of lasting peace replaced it with a new, more urgent phase of war literature.
It is also a welcome corrective to the traditional picture to learn that the war books of the Twenties and Thirties did not represent a one-note literature of disillusionment. Novels which celebrated patriotism and pre-war values of idealism and hope continued to be published and, moreover, to reach a wide and receptive readership.
With the exception of Richard Aldington, and possibly of Herbert Read, none of Cecil's chosen novelists will be familiar to modern readers, though many of them were bestselling authors in their day. Cecil has unearthed some fascinating personal stories. There is a pattern of tragic inevitability in the chapter on A.D. Gristwood, author of The Somme, who never emerged from the shadow of the war and who finally took his own life. There is also the delightfully unpredictable tale of Robert Keable, a chaplain on the Western Front who abandoned Christianity after the war for a life of free love on a Tahitian island.
And yet one's overriding feeling is that most of the novels discussed in this book are second- or even third-rate, mere historical curiosities, and that Cecil's determination to revive them for posterity is almost like an act of piety. It's also difficult not to conclude that the best of British writing arising from the war lies in poetry and autobiography (while recognising the strong fictional element in the memoirs of Sassoon and Graves). Britain didn't produce a war novelist of the stature of Remarque, and it is perhaps regrettable that what is without doubt the greatest British novel of the war, Frederic Manning's The Middle Parts of Fortune, receives only a passing mention.
Furthermore, Cecil's biographical approach seems a misguided one. Collective biography is notoriously difficult, and whatever singularity these novels possess seems to go missing in a great swamp of biographical information. The relationship between the authors' experience and their writing also gets lost. The case of R.H. Mottram is particularly telling in this respect. In spite of being filmed in 1930, and televised in the Sixties, Mottram's Spanish Farm Trilogy has never won the popularity it deserves. Cecil's chapter on Mottram is scrupulously researched but fails to explain why Mottram avoided using his direct experience of the fighting in his work, nor why it is love and not war that is such a strong component of his novels.
There is something genuinely heroic about the way in which Cecil has tried to establish a link with the Great War generation before their stories become irretrievable. But what we need now is a more thematic, less idiosyncratic, study of the influence of the war on the literary imagination.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a chronic, progressive, life-threatening disease that requires expert multidisciplinary care. To facilitate this level of care, the Pulmonary Hypertension Association established across the United States a network of pulmonary hypertension care centers (PHCCs) with special expertise in PH, particularly pulmonary arterial hypertension, to raise the overall quality of care and outcomes for patients with this life-threatening disease. Since the inception of PHCCs in September 2014, to date 35 centers have been accredited in the United States. This model of care brings together physicians and specialists from other disciplines to provide care, facilitate basic and clinical research, and educate the next generation of providers. PHCCs also offer additional opportunities for improvements in PH care. The patient registry offered through the PHCCs is an organized system by which data are collected to evaluate the outcomes of patients with PH. This registry helps in detecting variations in outcomes across centers, thus identifying opportunities for improvement. Multiple tactics were undertaken to implement the strategic plan, training, and tools throughout the PHCC network. In addition, strategies to foster collaboration between care center staff and individuals with PH and their families are the cornerstone of the PHCCs. The Pulmonary Vascular Network of the American College of Chest Physicians believes this to be a positive step that will improve the quality of care delivered in the United States to patients with PH.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a chronic, progressive disease characterized by a variety of symptoms that often lead to disability and ultimately death. Multidisciplinary consensus group efforts have established an accepted algorithm for diagnosis and treatment. Despite the widespread delivery of this information and better understanding of this disease in the medical community, the prognosis of PH continues to be suboptimal.
Most recently, the Fifth World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension classified pulmonary hypertension into five groups: Group 1 PAH, which includes heterogeneous diseases that result in common pathobiologic characteristics within the pulmonary vasculature; this group includes idiopathic, familial, and drug- and toxin-induced PAH associated with systemic sclerosis, portal hypertension, congenital heart disease, and human immunodeficiency virus infection. The remaining four groups of PH are described as PH resulting from multiple other conditions and usually referred to as secondary PH. Treatment choices for these subgroups are typically aimed at correction or attenuation of the original disease. Group I PAH has received significant attention in research efforts worldwide, which has resulted in improved outcomes; however, long-term survival and cure continue to be unmet challenges. Five-year survival in the Registry to Evaluate Early and Long-term PAH Disease Management (REVEAL) study from the timing of right heart catheterization was 57%. Most importantly, this information reflects incident and prevalent cases of PAH in both community and experienced centers for the diagnosis and treatment of PH. With the goal to standardize care and to improve research efforts and outcomes in PH, the Pulmonary Hypertension Association (PHA) started an initiative to create pulmonary hypertension care centers (PHCCs) in the United States.
In the National Institutes of Health registry published in 1987, the mean time between symptom onset and diagnosis was 24 months, 27 months in the French registry, and 33 months in the 2012 REVEAL registry. These registry-based data reflect that a quarter of a century of knowledge and research has not been sufficient to narrow the commonly seen late diagnosis and the associated unwanted prognostic consequences. A variety of factors can account for this delay. Most notably is the insidious and nonspecific nature of the symptoms. These factors result in significant delay and not infrequently in misdiagnosis at early stages of the disease. Ideally, early recognition and timely referral will facilitate confirmation of the correct diagnosis and potentially the most adequate treatment choices. This persistent delay in diagnosis highlights the importance of increasing awareness regarding this disease as well as the dire need for a comprehensive multidisciplinary approach to these patients' care.
With the increasing awareness of and wide availability of pharmacologic therapies for PAH, the majority of patients referred to tertiary centers have already been initiated on specific therapies. This has shifted the momentum of treatment of PH from tertiary referral centers to community-based clinical settings. As a result, the modality of care delivery is less uniform, with different degrees of adherence to guidelines and level of expertise, and a variable amount of clinical support. Moreover, PAH-specific therapies are increasingly being inappropriately used for PH outside of group 1. The RePHerral study, conducted at three large university-based tertiary-level referral centers, showed that 98 of 140 patients (70%) were assigned a definitive diagnosis of PAH prior to referral. Of these, 32 patients (33%) were considered to have an incorrect diagnosis of PAH. Fifty-nine of 140 patients (42%) did not undergo a confirmatory right, left, or dual heart catheterization; 42 (30%) were started on PAH-specific therapies before referral, with 24 (57%) of the medications prescribed without adhering to published treatment guidelines. As a result, early access for patients to obtain an experienced second opinion and assurances that optimal care is provided to all patients has become a relevant concern.
The PAH-QuERI (Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension-Quality Enhancement Research Initiative) project was created to help physicians use the guidelines-based approach to the diagnosis and treatment of PAH. A total of 791 patients were enrolled in the PAH-QuERI project, and findings revealed that all American College of Chest Physicians (CHEST) guidelines-recommended tests were performed only in 6% of patients at the time of enrollment, as reported by participating physicians using an electronic data management record. Interestingly, only 7% of patients who received calcium channel blockers for PAH met the criteria for acute vasoreactivity on right heart catheterization. This study highlighted the underutilization of diagnostic tests along with a wide gap between the recommendations from guidelines and clinical practice. Badagliacca and colleagues described patients with PAH receiving oral medications for a longer duration in spite of clinical worsening. In this study, patients who died were more frequently referred while receiving oral therapy (83% vs 36%; P < .01) and had a higher rate of urgent need for prostanoid treatment (69% vs 17%; P < .0001). The referenced data support the overreliance on and use of oral therapies at the nonexpert centers in comparison with the tertiary-level referral centers. This report also highlighted that the patients who died were in a more advanced functional class and had worse pulmonary hemodynamics at the time of referral. Survivors had a significant response to prostanoid, improving New York Heart Association class from 2.8 ± 0.4 to 2.3 ± 0.5 (P = .002), 6-minute walk distance from 354 ± 91 to 426 ± 82 m (P = .0001), and pulmonary hemodynamics. It was concluded, therefore, that the timing of referral of these patients to a tertiary-level PH center is critical in affecting their prognosis. Data from the REVEAL registry reflect similar findings. Of patients who died of a PAH-related cause, only 56% were receiving intravenous prostacyclin before death. Among those who died in the PAH-related death cohort, 60% and 16% of patients were most recently assessed as functional classes III and IV, respectively. Only 57.7% of the patients in functional class IV had received intravenous prostacyclin. Nevertheless, the REVEAL study presented data originating from both community and experienced centers.
Tonelli and colleagues reported from their high-volume, expert program the circumstances surrounding the death of patients with PAH: All but one patient (83 of 84) received some form of PAH-specific therapy and 57.2% were receiving dual or triple combination therapy at the time of death. Of patients with PAH who died of right heart failure, 70% received parenteral prostanoid therapy. There were valid reasons why 30% of the patients did not receive parenteral prostanoids, such as refusal of parenteral therapy or being poor candidates for this therapy. The authors concluded that at their center most patients received appropriate therapy as indicated by the guidelines. High-volume specialized centers have been successful in providing the best outcomes for patients in various disease states, while maintaining the greatest patient satisfaction, lowest complication rates, shortest hospital stay, and best value for health care payers. Moreover, the results of surgical therapy for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) have also supported the concept of improved outcomes from high-volume centers: operative mortality has declined as centers gained greater experience through higher procedure volume.,
It has long been recognized that the care of patients with PH requires organized and structured programs with defined goals. Established and accredited programs such as those that provide care for patients with cystic fibrosis or organ transplantation have demonstrated advantages that have resulted in standardized and ultimately improved specialized patient care. Therefore, in 2011, the Scientific Leadership Council (SLC) of the Pulmonary Hypertension Association (PHA) recommended the development of a nationwide accreditation program for PH centers. The PHA is now focusing on the accreditation of PH centers along with improving disease awareness and patients' access to care. Two committees, the PHCC Oversight Committee (OC) and the PHCC Review Committee (RC), were established to carry out the administrative functions of the PHCC accreditation program. The OC comprises physicians, allied health professionals, a patient, a member of the board of trustees, an attorney, and PHA staff members. The OC is charged with analyzing and updating the PHCC accreditation criteria, program evaluation tools, and the accreditation scoring system. The OC is also responsible for establishing and governing the PHCC RC and reports to the PHA Board of Trustees. The OC currently comprises seven selected members, with each serving a 3-year term. The RC consists of 22 members including physicians and allied health professionals serving 2-year terms, supported by PHA PHCC staff. The responsibilities of the RC include reviewing site applications, conducting site visits, and determining accreditation status. This initiative resulted in a two-center system: pulmonary hypertension centers of comprehensive care and regional clinical programs. The SLC of the PHA stipulated that a PHCC, along with providing expert clinical care, should also develop basic and clinical research expertise and educate the next generation of providers.
The PHCC accreditation committee developed standards for care, research, and teaching, which became the basic criteria that care centers must implement and sustain for PHCC accreditation. The initial standards of care required that PHCCs use a team of multidisciplinary experts to address inpatient and outpatient clinical needs, adhere to care practices developed by PH clinical experts, and maintain a sufficient patient volume to advance the expertise of the center's care providers. The SLC, at the outset, came up with admirable yet challenging goals for PHCCs to improve the overall care of patients, which should translate into better long-term patient outcomes (Table 1).
PHCCs = pulmonary hypertension care centers.
In July 2014, the PHA launched the PHCC program. Since the time of institution of this program, the PHA has accredited 35 centers as centers of comprehensive care. Pulmonary hypertension care centers (PHCCs) are designated as either a PHA-accredited center of comprehensive care or as a PHA-accredited regional clinical program, based on a number of factors including quality and depth of resources available for the expert care of their patients with PH, as well as the array of therapies offered by the center. This two-level system stems from an acknowledgment that some PH care providers are qualified to correctly diagnose and initiate first-line treatment in less sick patients with PH with subsequent referral to a comprehensive care center for more advanced therapies, when necessary. Research, both clinical and basic, is an integral component of comprehensive care centers but not required for a regional clinical program. e-Tables 1-3 highlight the role and features of the center director, coordinator, and program staff. and facility for a comprehensive care center and regional clinical program. It should be stressed that both comprehensive care centers and regional clinical programs will be accredited by the PHA only after undergoing a thorough evaluation and satisfactorily meeting the respective criteria set forth. While comprehensive care centers are expected to teach and mentor the next generation of health care professionals, regional clinical programs are focused more on providing the same level of clinical care as comprehensive care centers. The PHA initiative will promote a uniform standard of care at the tertiary-level care centers as well as at community hospitals and private practices. This will help all individuals with PH to receive appropriate care within a reasonable distance from their home.
In turn, all PHA-accredited centers will be expected to uphold the principles of delivering appropriate and effective care to patients with PH as outlined by the PHCC committee. To ensure that PHCCs sustain accreditation standards, they undergo a site visit by members of the center committee at least every 3 years. PHCCs provide a unique, sustainable approach to treatment of a complex chronic disease throughout the life span of patients. The goal of the accreditation process is not only to ensure that basic standards are met, but also to promote optimal care. For this reason, the accreditation process supports and fosters continuous improvement efforts within care centers. The mission of the PHCC committee is to foster exemplary care for all individuals with PH through the promotion of standards of care, accreditation of care centers, education of providers, and the advancement of research in all aspects of PH.
A recent interim analysis of the data obtained from the 34 accredited PH centers of comprehensive care was done, and the results were presented at a national meeting. This highlighted the structure of the accredited programs along with their deficiencies. A review of patient charts revealed nocturnal oximetry testing as the most frequent deficiency followed by documentation of pulmonary function and vasodilator testing at the accredited centers. It also showed in the past 3 years how many patients were treated with oral, inhaled, or intravenous/subcutaneous prostacyclin at these centers. Highlighting such data will help in self-improvement of each center and long term will improve the care delivered to patients with pulmonary hypertension.
The creation of this new Pulmonary Hypertension Association Registry (PHAR) is a key advancement in the ability to achieve improvements in PH health outcomes nationally. One of the requirements for accreditation as a PHCC is to enroll patients with PH into the PHAR. The patient registry became a web-enabled database and is deployed throughout the entire care center network as an institutional review board-approved, longitudinal, observational study. The PHAR collects data from World Health Organization (WHO) group 1 patients with PH (ie, those with PAH) and WHO group 4 patients with PH (chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension [CTEPH]) who are starting evaluation and/or treatment at a PHCC. PAH is a "rare disease" and as per the United States-based REVEAL registry, the prevalence of PAH is 2.0 to 10.6 cases per million adults. Since there are so few patients with PH, looking at data for patients from just one PHCC will not provide meaningful information for researchers. Thus, it is necessary to compile data from as many patients as possible to share with other health professionals and create best practices and standards of care. The usefulness of the PHAR, akin to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Registry, cannot be underemphasized as the importance of future quality improvement, comparative effectiveness, and other registry-based research will evolve from this important venture. There may not be as much guidance available to publish on the structure of the PHAR to date, but any information regarding data capture, data security, assurance of informed consent and data quality, and so on, would be of interest.
Based on the success of expert care centers in many countries and improved access to emergent PAH treatment, the Fifth World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension recommended the expert/specialized center referral for patients with PAH as a grade 1-C recommendation (evidence and/or general agreement that a given treatment or procedure is beneficial, useful, or effective based on consensus of opinion of the experts and/or small studies, retrospective studies, registries).
The latest guidelines for PAH published by the European Society of Cardiology/European Respiratory Society recommend early referral and treatment of patients with PAH at a referral center. It is recommended that referral centers provide care by a multiprofessional team (cardiology and respiratory medicine physicians, clinical nurse specialist, radiologists, psychological and social work support, appropriate on-call expertise) and have direct links and quick referral patterns to other services (such as connective tissue disease, family planning, pulmonary endarterectomy, lung transplantation, adult congenital heart disease) (class I-C recommendation). These guidelines also highlighted that referral centers should have sufficient patients receiving chronic therapy as well as new referrals to warrant this status. The ideal number of patients seen by an adult referral center each year is recommended to be no fewer than 200, of which at least 50% should have a final diagnosis of PAH.
In countries with a population of more than 10 million, adult centers should ideally expand to accommodate more than 300 patients annually. It is recommended that a referral center, at a minimum, should monitor at least 50 patients with PAH or CTEPH and receive at least two new referrals per month with documented PAH or CTEPH. These numbers can be adapted according to specific country characteristics (population distribution, geographical constraints, etc.). Pediatric centers should monitor at least 30 to 50 patients annually.
The PHA scientific leadership committee started the PHCC initiative in 2011 under the guidance of the PHA board of trustees and PHA oversight committee. The committee felt a sense of urgency to address the variation in outcomes and delay in diagnosis as well as a need to close the gap between the care centers with the best outcomes and other PH centers. The goal of the PHCC initiative has been to improve care for everyone in the United States with PH, by embracing and spreading quality improvement processes and principles for the delivery of care within the PH care centers. The PH association leadership believes that additional years, or even decades, could be added to the lives of those with PH by enhancing care delivery. The recent PHAR initiative has added transparency to the PHCC network. Publically available data in the online registry will be a key driver for improving care center staff, the lives of people with PH, and their families and institutions.
The vision of the PHA leadership is that exemplary care should be delivered at all accredited PH care centers to further extend the quality and length of life for people affected by the disease. Simply developing standards of PH clinical care and disseminating the health outcome data have been demonstrated to be insufficient in improving care for this group of patients. Over time, multiple improvement strategies need to be implemented by the PHCCs and should be shared with the other care centers. The teams at each PHCC should provide a learning environment for peers at other care centers. New physicians who are recruited to PH care centers should focus on increasing opportunities related to both research and clinical practice. Initiatives to build and strengthen the partnership between patients, their families, and care center staff, such as patient and family advisory councils, should be used to improve PHCCs.
The CHEST endorsed the Pulmonary Hypertension Association's Pulmonary Hypertension Care Center (PHCC) accreditation program in 2014. As part of this endorsement, the College is a nonvoting member of the PHCC oversight committee. The CHEST's endorsement is an important step as it will give the College a role in the development, implementation, and evolution of this program.
The PHCC is a model of chronic care delivery, with clear aims to improve outcomes for patients who suffer from PH. The PHA has taken the lead to develop a system to accredit practice programs for PH via an integrated, multidisciplinary, and high-quality approach. These are the comprehensive care centers, regional clinical program, and patient registry. The PHA, while providing leadership, sets a framework for improved PH care, dissemination of knowledge, research tools, and maintenance of clinical expertise that can improve care for a complex chronic disease at multiple clinical care sites across the United States. In addition, the development of a PH registry at the care centers allows additional treatment, demographic, diagnostic, and outcome data. However, this approach is possible only with a strong partnership between patients, families, and the multidisciplinary health care providers needed to care for individuals with PH.

CHAMPAIGN – A second potential challenger for Mayor Jerry Schweighart's office picked up nomination petitions this week, and he says it is important for city officials to look toward the future.
Don Gerard, who listed an address in central Champaign , said he is "somewhat of a reluctant politician but an eager public servant."
Gerard said he has lived in Champaign for 42 years and now works for Facilities and Services at the University of Illinois. Throughout his life, he said, he has worked at "a number of local businesses."
"If anything, I'm a fairly prototypical Champaign community member," Gerard said.
Though he believes the current city council does a "fantastic" job, Gerard said officials need to look toward the future and address infrastructure concerns and continue to work on Big Broadband, a federally-funded high speed Internet project.
He also said officials need to view Campustown as an asset to the community and work more closely with merchants there.
While he has "great respect" for Schweighart, Gerard said the April election is the right time to challenge him for the office. The only time Schweighart has ever been challenged in a mayoral election was when he first won the office in 1999, a situation that Gerard said is not good for democracy.
"It's up to them (voters)," Gerard said. "I'd like the opportunity to present myself as an individual, my ideas, how I am, and let the people choose."
Schweighart could be facing at least two challengers in the April 2011 election. Northwest Champaign resident Charles Mingee told The News-Gazette in August that he would seek nomination.
Potential candidates need to collect 63 signatures on a petition before they can declare their candidacy in November.
In addition to the mayor's office, four city council seats – three at-large seats and one district 5 seat – will be up for grabs in April. The incumbents – Tom Bruno, Deborah Frank Feinen, Karen Foster and Gordy Hulten – have all said they will seek re-election. So far, no challengers to those seats have picked up petitions from the city clerk.
I hope that the people running against our presently racist mayor are patriotic and believe in the legitimacy of Obama as the President of the United States. You truly disqust me Mayor and it is time for you to step aside.
Mr. Gerard sounds like an intelligent and well-tempered man, neither of which could be said about our current mayor. I am glad that Schweighart won't be getting another free ride this year.
Schweighart is an anachronism...he is a 1950's throwback and an embarrassment to the Champaign of today...he needs to go quickly and quietly
Well said. I for one am ready for a mayor who won't embarrass Champaign by advocating conspiracy theories and who would embrace Campustown as an asset to the community instead of seemingly trying to antagonize it every chance he gets like Schweighart does. City Councilmen Tom Bruno and Mike LaDue would both be fine choices if they were ever to run.
It's great that he's being challenged and I'm looking forward to hearing the policies of the other candidates.
I should add to my last comment that Gerard's interest in the broadband grants, infrastructure and working more closely with campustown are all positive and very welcome. And also the whole not being a birther thing.
Mr. Gerard sounds like a nice man, but he's extremely liberal. We need balance in the Twin Cities. Let the People's Republic of Urbana have the liberalism, but we need our Moderates here in Champaign. Mayor S might be ready to consider stepping aside, but don't let it be for one statement, blown out of proportion by the media. He's been a faithful servant, and very balanced. We need balance and experience, not a left leaning newbie.
Well, the voters will decide. Schweighart's very right wing, as evidenced by trying to refuse the broadband grants and by belief in that crazy conspiracy theory, which was by no means blown out of proportion. If he believes that lunacy, what else does he believe.
Have we (or, specifically, you) become so partisan that whether you are a liberal or conservative now matters in municipal elections? Give me a break! None of Mr. Gerard's positions have anything to do with left or right, they have to do with improving areas of our community (broadband, relationship with Campustown, etc.) that Schweighart has neglected or has decided are not important.
Out of curiosity, how do you even know that he's a liberal?

Welcome to the Cruel World: Ben Harper: Music
It's the second album from Ben Harper and was released in the early nineties. Most of the songs on this one are significantly less recognizable than those on Fight for Your Mind. However, I think they do a beautiful job setting the stage for the subsequent album. Best tracks: waiting on an angel, mama's got a girlfriend now
This song moves me. It makes my heart swell with joy and collapse with sadness all in three minutes. And that's what I consider brilliance.Tags: music, artists, mp3, alternatives, bands, life, recordings, groups, downloadsAdded 9 Years Ago from Amazon.com

|Ship Quality
|It was clean and absolutely fine. The formal dining area was nice. Our cabin was very basic.
|Food and Dining
|The food on this cruise was exceptional and plentiful. We especially enjoyed the omelette station in the morning and the formal dining (Fantasy) in the evening. We only had to wait to be seated one night out of the four that we were there.
|Cabin / Stateroom
|Our room was absolutely adequate. It met our basic needs. We wished for a bit larger bathroom\, but really were not unhappy about anything in the room. We didn't take this cruise to spend a lot of time in the room anyway\, so it served its purpose just fine.
|Service and Staff
|We can't say enough good things about the staff on this ship. Our cabin steward (Randall) was exceptional--very friendly and always helpful. We liked our evening wait staff (led by Maria R) so much\, that we requested them every night. And Christine in the piano bar was so talented\, we went back to see her every night that she was there. We tried other bars and entertainment\, but always ended up in the piano bar. It was great fun.
|We could have done without all the activities around the pool. Some were fine and expected... but on our day at sea\, it got to be too much. You couldn't relax because there was always some sort of announcement or activity. Also--we encountered a big problem with the snorkeling excursion! We had no problem getting there and the snorkeling was great. But\, when it was over\, we were basically \"dumped\" by the side of the road and had to find our way back to the ship! No one directed us as to how to get back (take a bus\, grab a cab\, etc.) So--if you go on an excursion\, make sure you know ALL the details about getting there AND getting back. That getting back to the ship thing is a pretty big deal! :)

Commercial telematics is a technology that connects computers and telecom services and allows the transfer of large amounts of information in vehicles in real-time. The telematics products utilized by light, medium, and heavy commercial vehicles are the key components of the global commercial telematics market. The rising trend of strategic partnerships between telematics service providers and automobile manufacturers has boosted this market significantly over the past few years. The increasing penetration of this technology in various other industries such as healthcare and insurance is likely to provide an opportunity-rich market to participants in the near future.
A research report on the global commercial telematics market, published by Transparency Market Research (TMR), estimates the market to expand at a CAGR of 18.0% during the period from 2014 and 2020.

The high adoption rate of commercial telematics solutions in various sectors such as government, logistics, transportation, and utilities owing to the soaring internet penetration in this region, has propelled this market in North America significantly in the recent past. However, Europe is likely to record the fastest growth in this market during the forecast period. eCall and several other initiatives by the European Union are likely to fuel the demand for commercial telematics in this region over the next few years.

The Gloria Steinem Papers provide a very complete picture of the public and personal aspects of an important feminist leader's life, but there is much more here than the raw material for her biography. The correspondence, writings, speeches, subject files, memorabilia, photographs, and other papers document the movement from the standpoint of not only the movers and shakers, but also the individual women at the grass roots level, whose letters to Steinem indicate the ways that they responded to her as a symbol of the changes they were experiencing in their own lives. The papers reflect the diversity of the modern women's movement because of Steinem's ability to form productive alliances with women of different races and classes. Documents her friendships and political work with pioneering African-American feminists such as Shirley Chisholm, Florynce Kennedy and Dorothy Pitman Hughes; lesbian authors and activists Andrea Dworkin and Kate Millett; and labor organizers such as the United Farmworkers' Dolores Huerta and Karen Nussbaum of SEIU, District 925. Papers related to Steinem's role in founding the Women's Action Alliance provide additional source material for studying attempts by the women's movement to stress the commonalities of women across race and class. Her importance as a founder, editor, and key fund-raiser for Ms. magazine make this collection central to any study of late 20th century journalism.

My 2010 Surburban cruise control was working fine until today. For some reason, it just ceased to work without any warning. Is there a fuse I can check and replace, or a reset procedure I can use to get this back up and running?
I got a 2010 Chevy Suburban, I got after market rims (22) on it and got the tire sensor put in the aftermarket rims also. I need to go on a road trip, can I put the stocks back on without the tire sensor? Someone told me without the sensor I won't be able to drive over 40 mph. Someone else told me the check tire light will come on but it doesn't effect anything else. Which is correct?

How Dippin' Dots Turned a Frosty Crisis Around
Sometimes you can get bad press on Social Media. But there is an art to turning it around to help your brand. Here is a great story about Dippin' Dots (an ice cream, sort of, made in Kentucky) that reacted very intelligently to tweets from Sean Spicer, White House Press Secretary.
Short version, Sean Spicer has been tweeting negative things on twitter since 2010 when they didn't have his favourite flavour (vanilla). He's made comments like "Ice cream of the Past: Dippin' Dots Files for Bankruptcy".
Apparently Dippin' Dots is alive and still making those dots. So with his name all over the news now, linked with the new president, those tweets started resurfacing and the company decided to have a little fun. They wrote an open letter to Sean Spicer on their website and various social media outlets.
You can read their letter here.
This is truly how to turn an enemy into a friend and get a whole lot of great publicity for your company.
I don't wish the White House Press Secretary to ever have a grudge against your company, but there is often a way to get around it.

However, if you don't you can disconnect them immediately and change your password. Read this article on how it works and all that is compromised.

Everyone Hates Your Email Marketing. Everyone
Everyone has this problem, clearing out the crap from our email. Some of which we did subscribe to and now regret, or the stuff we don't remember subscribing to. James talks about how hard some companies make it to unsubscribe and then add insult to injury by bothering you more when you finally do find the unsubscribe option.
Bottom line, make sure you always have something to say to your clients when you send out an email. Don't bombard them with lots of emails, and if they want to unsubscribe let them do it easily by making it easy to find the button and let them go.

Forget New Year's Resolutions, ask five questions instead.
Forget New Year's resolutions, New Year's questions are a healthier alternative
Source: Five questions to ask yourself as you ring in the new year
If less than 10 per cent of us keep New Year's resolutions, why make them in the first place?
As with most things in life, the motivation underlying making resolutions is key. All too often we spout off a long list of all the things we wish we were "better" at. These often include changing our exercise and/or eating habits, losing/gaining weight, and quitting/reducing a habit that we believe is unhealthy, such as nicotine, caffeine or alcohol consumption. We are extremely motivated by how others will see us, view us and ultimately judge us. At least, in the short-term.
Here's the thing: trying to live up to someone, or everyone, else's expectation of who you should be is rarely, if ever, enough to motivate you to make long-term meaningful changes in your life. What if there's an alternative to mindlessly reeling off the same list of to-dos that we've recited every year for the past decade? We can take a chance to pause and ask ourselves some questions, which might inspire us to live closer in line with who we truly want to be, rather than who we think we should be.
- What was one sweet moment for you in 2015? As best you can, connect to what this moment was like through your five senses. What did you see, hear, smell, taste and feel in that sweet moment? This moment doesn't need to be extraordinary. This moment may be something as simple as receiving a text message from someone you love or seeing a friend for coffee. In my experience, these sweet moments rarely cost a lot in terms of financial resources yet often give us so much. This sweet moment will most likely indicate what is worth investing more time in 2016.
- What is that one thing on your "bucket list" would you love to do in 2016? We often treat life like it is an infinite resource that will always be available to us. How many times have you put important life goals on the long finger? Often, we don't actually end up doing these activities that we know would give us a sense of joy and fulfilment. What difference would it make to you if you engaged in this one activity on your bucket list? If, after mindful consideration, this still feels like something you want to do, see what small changes you can make to fulfil this dream.
- What have been the biggest drains on you in 2015? We all have drains on our energy. These can be people, relationships or activities that take more away from our life than they give back. Turn off the autopilot to ask yourself if these drains are worth your investment of time, energy and other resources. Most of us will find that some drains on our energy are not worth pursuing. Particularly, if we notice that our own tank is running on empty. It may be time to make some changes.
- What would you love to see yourself doing more of in a video of your life one year from now? When we make resolutions or goals we frequently focus on things like I want to be happier, calmer, slimmer or healthier. Yet, these goals are pretty abstract. It is hugely beneficial to make your goals more tangible by focusing on what you would see yourself doing differently in your life a year from now. This gives us something clear and concrete to aim for and engage in.
- What blocks and barriers are likely to come up for you? Most, if not all, of the people reading this now will know what it's like to try and fail. It's important to acknowledge the thoughts that we get hooked by such as "what's the point?" and "that's well and good for others but I won't be able for it".
It can be incredibly useful to put the phrase "I'm having the thought" before your self-limiting thought. For example, saying out loud or in your head "I'm having the 'what's the point?' thought" and then reconnecting to what the point is for you. Feeling unwanted emotions when we go outside of our comfort zone is inevitable.
