Mentor Graphics Offers Verification Instruction in a Single Global Classroom
WILSONVILLE, Ore., August 6, 2009 – Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced the Verification Academy, a unique, highly-accessible approach to meet the educational needs of verification engineers. The goals of this online academy are to provide the skills necessary to mature an organization's advanced functional verification process capabilities. To this end, the Verification Academy provides a methodological bridge between high-level value propositions (related to advanced verification technology) and the low-level details (related to specific tool and verification language details). The Verification Academy, which features Harry Foster as the primary instructor, can be accessed around the clock at: http://verification-academy.mentor.com/.
"The Verification Academy provides well-sized, informative presentations on some of the advanced verification techniques used by Icera, from high-level processes of interest to managers, through to technical material for hands-on engineers," said Kevin Dewar, Silicon Engineering Director, Icera Semiconductor. "We expect to use the material to develop the skills of engineers new to these techniques, and to refine the skills of experienced engineers."
About the Verification Academy: Where Education Meets Opportunity
A web seminar to introduce the Verification Academy to prospective users is scheduled for August 12, 2009, 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM (PST). For more information on the seminar visit: http://www.mentor.com/products/fv/events/verification-academy-webseminar.
Currently the Verification Academy contains the following modules with additional modules planned for release over the coming year:
- Evolving Capabilities Module
Ensuring functional correctness on RTL designs continues to pose one of the greatest challenges for today's ASIC, FPGA and SoC design teams. This module provides a common framework for all advanced functional verification modules contained within the Verification Academy. A simple evolving capabilities model is presented, which can be used as a tool for assessing an organization's functional verification process capabilities. - Assertion-Based Verification Module
The design effort for complex ASICs has been able to scale linearly by increasing design reuse and adopting a well-architected, platform-based design structure. Unfortunately, functional verification has not benefited directly from this approach. This module explores one way to address increased design complexity to supplement traditional functional verification methods with assertion-based verification (ABV). Today, ABV has been successfully applied at multiple levels of design and verification abstraction —ranging from high-level assertions within transaction-level test benches down to implementation-level assertions synthesized into emulation and hardware. - (CDC) Clock-Domain Crossing Verification Module
For the past dozen or so years, static timing analysis has served the industry well by ensuring that all synchronous design blocks will not violate any of the design's setup and hold-timing constraints. However, with the convergence of multiple applications into a complex SoC (such as digital-audio, video, wireless, and networking), as well as the industry's adoption of an IP reuse strategy, project teams are now faced with a new set of clocking verification challenges that are not addressed by static timing analysis. This module introduces clock-domain crossing concepts and provides insight into understanding the challenges encountered in complex SoCs.

If you have elected to receive a hard itinerary package, this will be sent to your address on file via FedEx no later than 2 weeks prior to your scheduled trip and will include all confirmation numbers, Special Guest passes to the VIP Tour and Reception, game tickets. Since our deliveries come via FedEx, please include a physical address in your personal information, as FedEx cannot deliver to PO Boxes.
What is in my gift bag? When can I expect to receive it?
Your standard gift bag will include a premium baseball material bag, Red Sox t-shirt & hat, an autographed photo of a current Red Sox player for each guest, an MLB Game Ball for each guest, and the most recent edition of Red Sox Magazine. For an additional $60 you can upgrade your gift bag to include a Majestic Athletic Replica Jersey(s) of choice (size, style, and player.) You can retrieve your gift bag upon check-in at your selected hotel. If you choose to take part in Red Sox Destinations without hotel accommodations, we will make our best efforts to ensure that your gift bag is delivered to your address before you depart for your trip.
What styles of Majestic Athletic Replica Jersey are available?
Should you upgrade to receive a Majestic Athletic Replica Jersey(s), these are available in Men's, Women's, and Youth sizes. The availability of styles is as follows:
Men's: Any player or personalization is available for the Home (White) jersey, Road (Grey) jersey, and Alternate (Red) jersey. Please note that like the on-field version, the home jersey only has the number on the back, and does NOT have the player's name. Both the Road (Grey) and Alternate (Red) jerseys will have name and number on the back.
Women's: Any player or personalization is available for the Home (White) jersey. The Alternate (Red) jersey is only available for Pedroia and Ortiz. Different from the Men's styles, all women's jerseys have both name and number on the back. Women's jerseys do NOT come in the Road (grey) style.
Youth: Any player or personalization is available for the Home (White) jersey or Road (Grey) jersey. The Alternate (Red) jersey is only available for Pedroia and Ortiz. Different from the Men's styles, all youth jerseys have both name and number on the back.
When do I need to select my Red Sox shirt sizes by?
In order to ensure that your Red Sox shirts are ready for you and your party by the time the Destinations trip begins, please be sure to make all selections no later than 70 days prior to your trip.
If I upgrade to a jersey gift bag(s), when do I need to select my jersey(s) by?
In order to ensure that your Red Sox jerseys are ready for you and your party by the time the Destinations trip begins, please be sure to make all selections no later than 70 days prior to your trip. All jerseys are made custom by Majestic Athletic, and require advance ordering in order to ensure on-time delivery.
What if I don't order my jerseys by the cut-off date?
If you are unable to select your jerseys within 70 days of the trip's departure, we will make a best effort to get your jerseys for you in time for your trip, but please be aware that there is a possibility your jerseys will need to be sent to your home address after your trip's conclusion.
Where are the seats located for games on the road?
Red Sox Destinations always looks to secure the best available seat locations. Generally, we aim for tickets that have a face value between $40 and $70. We work diligently with each team's ticket office to negotiate the best possible location that can accommodate our group.
Where are the seats located for games at Fenway?
At Fenway, Red Sox Destinations guests sit in what is known as the Coca-Cola Pavilion (PR18 on the Fenway Seating chart.) It is on the State Street Pavilion level (one of our two premium levels) and is located between third base and the Green Monster. With a full view of the Fenway field and an outstanding view of the Boston skyline in the background, the Coca Cola Pavilion provides an excellent vantage point to view some exciting Red Sox baseball. One of the newest sections in the park (first opening in 2008), the comfort and spaciousness of the seats is hard to find anywhere else at Fenway.
What is the Green Monster/On-Field Batting Practice upgrade?
The Green Monster/On-Field Batting Practice upgrade is available for select Red Sox Destinations games at Fenway Park.
In addition
to your Coca-Cola Pavilion game ticket, you will receive a Green Monster Standing Room ticket. This will give you access to the Green Monster during the game and during batting practice in additional to your seat in the Coca-Cola Pavilion.
You will also have the special opportunity to watch the Red Sox take batting practice from the warning track (weather permitting). Capacity is limited to just 20 people for each game that the upgrade is made available.
If I would like to extend my stay, should I do so through Red Sox Destinations or should I call the hotel directly?
All hotel extensions should be made with Red Sox Destinations via telephone at 617.226.6400 to ensure that you receive our special discounted rate. Please book all extensions to your stay no later than 3 weeks prior to your check-in date in order to ensure availability. All extended reservations are made based on availability at the hotel.
What is your rain-out policy?
While a rain out is not a common occurrence during the season, it is always a possibility. In the event a rain out does occur, there are a few options:
Your ticket is always good for the rescheduled game (which in many cases is played during the dates of the scheduled trip as a double header).
In the event the game is not played during the dates of the scheduled trip and you are unable to attend the rescheduled game, the ticket is yours to do what you wish with (give to friends, family, etc.)
In the event you cannot use the ticket at all, we will do our best to obtain a refund from the team. If we are able to do so, we will happily refund you the face value of the ticket.
Which player will attend the VIP Reception?
Each VIP Reception will include a chance to get autographs and participate in a Q&A with one current Red Sox player. Due to the busy and often unpredictable schedules of our players, we are generally not able to determine who the player will be until the week of the reception. As soon as we finalize who will be appearing at your VIP Reception, we will send an e-mail out to inform you.

Thursday, October 4, 2012
NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Dr. Dwight Castro, Westminster professor of classics, will present "De Re Publica Romana et Re Publica Americana: Some Surprising Discoveries" at the Faires Faculty Forum Wednesday, Oct. 10, at 11:40 a.m. in the Sebastian Mueller Theater of the McKelvey Campus Center.
The Founders of the American Republic looked to the ancient Roman Republic as an inspiration, and sometimes as a model, when designing and "selling" the form of government embodied in the U.S. Constitution. In developing a document of Latin terminology for a recent presentation at "Septimana Californiana" ("California Week"), Castro discovered how the realities of modern American government necessitated an exploration of periods of Roman history, other than just the Republic, in order to describe the three branches of the U.S. government.
Castro, who has been with Westminster since 1970, earned an undergraduate degree from Gettysburg College and master's and Ph.D. from Indiana University.
The Faculty Forum was established in 1990 by Dr. Barbara Faires, Westminster professor of mathematics emerita, during her term as dean of the college and vice president for academic affairs. Faculty members from all disciplines volunteer to present lectures on their current research, artistic productions, and scholarship of teaching and learning. Each forum presents new ideas with innovative lecture techniques.
Podcasts of the forums are available here.
Contact Castro at (724) 946-7150 or email for more information.
Contact Charlene Klassen Endrizzi, faculty development officer, at (724) 946-7189 for more information on the Faires Faculty Forum or click here.

Sette Venn Alloy Seatpost
The Sette Venn seatpost features a simple proven 1-bolt multi-angle adjustable head with a forged 6061 aluminum post. Strength is further enhanced thanks to the internally oval tubing.
Nice Seatpost for the money - actually really cannot beat the price. A little heavier that I would prefer, but back to the price. Adjustment isn't the best either, but again, back to the price. I have had it on an old road bike for a year now and it still continues to keep my sorry butt in the right position.
I own two of these posts, and they are a great value for the money. I especially like the very positive clamping design for the seat rails. Haven't had one slip or creak yet!
Fit my Cannondale CAAD2 perfectly - beuatiful matte finish and eyecatching graphics
I bought this post mostly b/c it came in a 26.8mm size. I have been pleasantly surprised; the single bolt clamp hasn't slipped despite some pretty nasty trails, and it was easy to adjust the seat angle. I thought that I was going to buy it as a stop gap for a few months, but I've kept it on for well over a year.
worked great, clean looking and pretty light for how cheap it was
This post looks great and is pretty light, especially at this outstanding price!
Great fit and finish for a low priced seatpost!

The aldosterone blood test measures the level of the hormone aldosterone in blood.
Aldosterone can also be measured using a urine test .
A blood sample is needed.
Your health care provider will ask you to stop for a short time medicines that may affect the test results. Be sure to tell your provider about all the medicines you take. These include:
Do not stop taking any medicine before talking to your doctor.Your health care provider may recommend that you eat no more than 3 grams of salt (sodium) per day for at least 2 weeks before the test.
Or, your provider will recommend that you eat your usual amount of salt and also test the amount of sodium in your urine .
At other times, the aldosterone blood test is done right before and after you receive a salt solution (saline)through the vein (IV) for 2 hours. Be aware that other factors can affect aldosterone measurements, including:
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain. Others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing or a slight bruise. These soon go away.
This test is ordered for the following conditions:
Aldosterone is a hormone released by the adrenal glands . It helps the body regulate blood pressure. Aldosterone increases the reabsorption of sodium and water and the release of potassium in the kidneys. This action raises blood pressure.
Aldosterone blood test is often combined with other tests, such as the renin hormone test , to diagnose over- or under-production of aldosterone.
Normal levels vary:
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
A higher than normal level of aldosterone may be due to:
A lower than normal level of aldosterone may be due to:
Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining a blood sample from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:

Petrolatum, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter, Fragrance
I originally saw this product in a video on MSN. It was recommended by a Make-Up BF. I wrote it down and ordered on line here on Amazon and received it in a few days. The first time I put it on I was surprised at the thickness and creaminess of the product. Within a week I noticed my skin seemed less dry. My father mentioned that my skin looked younger and less flaky. I have used it now for 2 months and I won't use anything else. My father has started using it also. He is 79 years old and now swears by it. There is always a jar on the bathroom sink for easy access. I've received compliments from the people at my gym about how young my face is looking lately and I found out that two or three of them have also started using Cerave. They love it also. I highly recommend this moisturizing cream.
My dermatologist recommended this for my lips. I use it all the time. I also have children with eczema and we use it on their patches as well. It is the best at keeping in moisture for long periods of time. I bought the 8 oz 2 years ago and I am just now reordering another. A little goes a long way. I just love this stuff!!
I always look for products not tested on animals. After I tried AVENA, moisturizing cream, I rate this product with an A+.
I was first introduced to this cream by my mother, who has sensitive skin due to a chronic illness. I tried the cream during the late spring and loved it! The price was great compared to natural and/or organic body creams that I was using at the time. So when I finished my last moisture body balm I ordered Vanicream from myotcstore.com because I had a difficult time finding a retailer nearby that carried the cream. I tend to need more moisture during the fall & winter months, probably because clothing, especially made with synthetic materials like polyester, absorb moisture from your skin. Now that it is fall, I find that I must reapply the cream at least once to restore moisture to my skin, but I will continue to use this product.

What is God's plan for your life? Where will you go to find out? What university will fit your personality, align with your values, see the potential in your dreams, draw you closer to God, deliver a world of new friends, and give you a city skyline filled with bright opportunities?
Trevecca Nazarene University is a university without walls, where students from an array of backgrounds—Nazarene, Baptist, non-denominational, and more—are coming together in search of spiritual emphasis, religious values, and academic preparation that reaches the soul. Servant leadership is modeled by our professors and lived out by students—locally, nationally, and globally.
Trevecca is a private, four-year liberal arts university offering associate's, bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees. Our programs of study are fully accredited and more than 75 percent of our professors hold doctoral degrees from the world's finest universities. With more than 50 majors, concentrations and minors from which to choose, there is no limit to the paths you might follow in search of God's purpose for your life.
And the tuition and fees at Trevecca are among the best value in Christian higher education. We strive to keep our charges below the national average for private universities and more than 95% of our students receive financial aid in the form of scholarships, grants, loans and work-study opportunities. We want Trevecca to be affordable for the students who really want the Christian university experience that Trevecca can provide.
But all of these facts and figures about Trevecca don't tell the whole story. Students at Trevecca always stress the community here—the friendship and mentoring of professors who truly invest in the lives of students, the friendships made through conversations over late night pizza, the laughter and fun of FNL and Paint-a-palooza, the deep meaning of the worship experiences they find on campus. You have to see this for yourself to know if Trevecca is for you—and if you are for Trevecca.
Write, call, come and visit. See for yourself if all of this is what is in God's plan for your life. We look forward to helping you discover that plan and what role Trevecca might play in that plan.

It's almost strange how evident this is not a black when you put it next to a black eyeliner. It is most definitely an extremely dark grey, but if that is what you are looking for, here you go.
I do interchange use between this and carbon unless I am really looking for a pitch black look, however the pigmentation of the matte2 can not be wronged.
It is a joy to smoke out looks with.

I LOVE this eyeshadow as well! It so velvety and smooth in texture and blends like a dream! I like to use it for my outer corner and smoking out my bottom lash line. It pairs perfectly with satin taupe (my other fav mac eyeshadow) as duo. Color pigmentation is amazing and color is VERY buildable! A must have in my mac collection. Highly recommend!
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Typographic is a very deep matte gray, almost but not black shade.
A simple straightforward true charcoal that works as a substitute for black. The pigmentation is superb and awesome lasting power...
Just one catch...this eyeshadow is the KING of FALLOUT. It is the one and only MAC e/s I own that generously offers plenty of fallout no matter what I do. Tapping off the excess and patting the color on never works. You MUST apply your eye makeup first before any concealer or foundation, then you'll actually need to clean up your under eye area before applying the rest of your makeup. Even the tiniest bit of this can make your under eye area greyish if you don't clean it up first. Clean it, don't just fan brush it!
Won't repurchase, very dupeable. The fallout doesn't justify the purchase. Will use it while it lasts though.

A few months ago I took a family member to have a makeover at MAC and became friendly with the makeup artist who is unbelievable at her job ..... I finally met with her myself a few days ago and had her try out a few looks on me. My coloring is cool-toned ...... my skintone is NW10, my haircolor is a cool blonde with lowlights but I have brown eyes (which are boring.) I was surprised at her color choices as they are not ones I would normally use ....... in my one look, she used Vex all over the eye and then to my surprise she used Typographic (which I freaked out over because it is such a dark gray/black) and lightly used it in the crease and then to lightly line my upper outer corner and I could not believe that it worked ....... with a very gentle hand, she was able to create a light smoky eye and it worked perfectly not only with my cool coloring but also with my brown eyes. Typographic is a beautiful dark gray and if you use a light hand can certainly be used as a crease color and not only used to line your eyes.
About me: NW10-15 (neutral-cool toned, very fair), blue eyes, Color season is True Summer, Baumann Skin Type is OSPW.
This is my HG black shade. I have light features and blue eyes, so a harsh black like Carbon is "too much" on garish on me.
I love wearing this color with Vex in the inner corner and Knight Divine blended in between. My favorite smokey eye look. Truely beautiful. Recommend all 3 of these colors. I finally found the perfect black and will continue to repurchase.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Typographic is excellent! Really dark gray, almost black only easier to control. Like all matte2 buttery smooth, extremely pigmented, very blendable and long lasting. Great as a liner or at the outer v, recommended!
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Probably my favourite black eyeshadow. It has a great texture & blends really well. I like that it's dark enough to be black, but not HOLYSHITTHAT'SDARK black. You can build it up gently to deepen it without regretting what you're doing. This is one of my go-to shadows for adding some definition to the crease with just about any look.
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is such a versatile eyeshadow. I'm not someone who wears black eyeshadow often, so I never considered buying this one. However, one day I went to the MAC counter looking for a grey eyeshadow that could be used as an eyeliner and outer c olour and this was the colour that the MA came up with. I love the fact that it's a dark grey that can show up as either an almost black and a dark grey, depending on how much you apply. It is beautiful as an eyeliner (I use a 266 to apply), and it can be smoked out really well, but it also works great as an outer v colour, especially because its blendability is amazing. It blends so well, without disappearing. Would repurchase, but doubt that will ever be necessary, as the pigmentation is amazing, so you don't need much to get the desired effect.
7 out of 7 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Typographic is amazing! It's a deep charcoal that's soooo easy to work with. Many matte dark colours can be hard to blend and go on uneven, but Typographic is such a joy to work with. It's just perfect for an all-out smoky eye, or just to add a bit of darkness into the crease for any look. IMO this is a must-have for anyone building a MAC eye shadow collection. It may not look like a true black like Carbon, but this will do exactly what you want Carbon to do, and it will do it better!

One thing you might want to keep in mind is the the paper.
When drawing for more detailed drawings you might want to use a slightly better paper to avoid grittiness.
Also, the bike looks nice but the guys profile is too slopped.
And something to keep in mind is that the shape of the eye changes as you change the angle.
Morpheus wrote:I know that.
But you have to take all the advice you can get and put it to use.
Even if you can't use it now keep it in mind for later.
Asmodai wrote:Question, do you sketch beforehand?
I get the feeling, since I cant see any faint lines, that you dont do that. You might want to try that out, it really helps with making characters feel more dynamic (if you pose them correctly that is)

Respondus LockDown Browser Pilot
Spring 2010/Summer 2010
Approximately 20 Online and Face-to-Face faculty will be piloting the use of the
Respondus LockDown Browser
during summer 2010.
The Respondus LockDown Browser works in conjunction with iCollege assessments (quizzes, tests, and exams). An instructor can choose which of their assessments requires students to use the Respondus LockDown Browser. If an assessment requires the use of the Respondus LockDown Browser, the student must download (for free) and install the special browser. The student must then login to iCollege using the Respondus LockDown Browser (not Internet Explorer, FireFox, or Safari) and complete the assessment. The Respondus LockDown Browser will prevent the student from running other applications such as a web browser, Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, etc while taking the assessment.
During the pilot, both faculty and students will be asked to complete surveys regarding their experiences using the Respondus LockDown Browser.
Update Fall 2010
The pilot ended in July 2010. On August 3, 2010, the pilot group met and decided to continue licensing Respondus LockDown Browser. GPC Online will be discussing with its department chairs how it should be used in online classes-- which testing situations are most appropriate. The Respondus LockDown Browser will be made available for on campus testing in the labs and computer classrooms.
Nursing iTouch Pilot Project
Fall 2009-Spring 2010
The Nursing iTouch Pilot Project began in the Fall of 2009. It is a partnership between the nursing department and Instructional Technology Services. The GPC Nursing Department received a grant that would allow for 12 iTouches to be purchased and loaned to nursing students and faculty.
Instructional Technology Services purchased licenses for the Unbound Medicine App, Nursing Central. The app was loaded on the iTouches. Additionally, Instructional Technology Services worked with the nursing department to make their lectures and lecture notes available to students as podcasts viewable on the iTouch.
The project continued into Spring semester 2010. For more information on this pilot please contact Sue Buchholz.
Given the success of this pilot as indicated in student surveys and activity logs, a new, broader pilot that includes Nursing and Dental Hygiene is underway for the Fall 2010 semester.
Health Science Mobile Device Pilot
The Health Science Mobile Device Pilot Project will begin in Fall 2010. It is a partnership between the Health Science discipline and the Office of Information Technology. Faculty teaching in the Health Sciences will receive a iPad or iPod Touch. First year Health Science students will receive an iPod Touch. Second year Health Science students will receive an iPad. Discipline specific apps such as Unbound Medicine's Nursing Central app will be provided to the faculty and students. Faculty will be creating podcasts of lectures and skills labs for students to view.
Through the implementation of the Health Science Mobile Device Pilot we will:
Develop strategies to convey information utilizing various electronically based applications while providing engaging and powerful learning experiences, content, and resources applicable to the health science student.
Provide students with mobile, electronic devices, utilizing the power of technology to reach all learners anytime and anywhere.
Develop podcasts and webinar content to customize learning opportunities utilizing mobile devices.
Adopt discipline specific web-based applications for health science courses.
Explore the impact of enhanced technology on student learning.
Evaluate student perceptions and practices through use of pre and post student surveys.

Instructional Technology Services and Media Developer, Garrett DeHart, teamed with Honors Political Science Instructor, Tamra Ortgies-Young,to assist her spring 2010 political science students with the creation of a video depicting a concept in American Government.
Ortgies-Young's Honors Political Sciences students were divided into 5 teams of 3 students. Each team was given a topic such as Federalism and asked to create a 4-5 minute video. The completed videos will be placed on the Internet for future GPC Political Science students to enjoy as well as anyone who has an interest.
Instructional Technology Services and the Media Developer provided in-class training on filming and lighting basics, how to use iMovie, and general support/guidance. Student teams were also provided with a Flip Video Camera and access to a Macbook Pro laptop, lighting kits, and green screens.
Ortgies-Young, Instructional Technology Services, and the Media Developer collaborated on the design of the project including what deliverables (mini-paper, script, etc.) would be required.
Student videos can be viewed
This project will be continued in Fall 2010 by Adam Stone.
Summer 2010
A similar student media project to the one described above was completed in an Education course "Exploring Socio-Cultural Perspectives" taught by Mary Mattson during the summer 2010 semester. Please contact Mary Mattson for details on this project.
Fall 2010
In fall semester, Honors Political Science instructor, Adam Stone will continue the Student Media Project started by Tamra Ortgies- Young. This will help to build a library of student created American Government videos available to all GPC students.
The Future of Student Media Projects
Future student media projects will be supported through Instructional Technology Services, the new
Student Media Labs
and the new Digital Media Coordinator. Contact an
Instructional Technologist
if you would like to design a student media project. Your
Instructional Technologist
can provide recommendations on the instructional design and technical design of your project.

Congenital heart disease is a problem with the heart's structure and function that is present at birth.
Congenital heart disease (CHD) can describe a number of different problems affecting the heart. It is the most common type of birth defect. Congenital heart disease causes more deaths in the first year of life than any other birth defects.
Congenital heart disease is often divided into two types: cyanotic (blue skin color caused by a lack of oxygen) and non-cyanotic. The following lists cover the most common congenital heart diseases:
These problems may occur alone or together. Most children with congenital heart disease do not have other types of birth defects. However, heart defects can be part of genetic and chromosome syndromes. Some of these syndromes may be passed down through families.
Examples include:
Often, no cause for the heart disease can be found. Congenital heart diseases continue to be investigated and researched. Drugs such as retinoic acid for acne, chemicals, alcohol, and infections (such as rubella ) during pregnancy can contribute to some congenital heart problems.
Poorly controlled blood sugar in women who have diabetes during pregnancy has also been linked to a high rate of congenital heart defects.
Symptoms depend on the condition. Although congenital heart disease is present at birth, the symptoms may not appear right away.
Defects such as coarctation of the aorta may not cause problems for years. Other problems, such as a small VSD , ASD, or PDA may never cause any problems.
Most congenital heart defects are found during a pregnancy ultrasound. When a defect is found, a pediatric heart doctor, surgeon, and other specialists can be there when the baby is delivered. Having medical care ready at the delivery can mean the difference between life and death for some babies.
Which tests are done on the baby depend on the defect, and the symptoms.
Which treatment is used, and how well the baby responds to it, depends on the condition. Many defects need to be followed carefully. Some will heal over time, while others will need to be treated.
Some congenital heart diseases can be treated with medication alone. Others need to be treated with one or more heart surgeries.
Women who are pregnant should get good prenatal care:
Certain genes may play a role in congenital heart disease. Many family members may be affected. Talk to your health care provider about genetic screening if you have a family history of congenital heart disease.

Q.U. wrote:5 are mine! Oh, and don't mind no comments. I guess the more you post the more chances for comments. I hope you won't go emo if nobody posts here even after you've spammed 10 pages by yourself... :p I'd never care much about a lit thread should I have one. But that's me, I guess.
Q.U. wrote:DA is crap, but it's your choice. I wouldn't expect more feedback there then here though.
I don't know all the pro's and cons of being on DA, but I can see 2 at the moment: a) Have a place where to store and show my complete stories so that people don't have to scan the whole thread when I start posting other stories here on SNAFU and b) see through the mature barrier. The temptation is so overwhelming...
-13 to my 18th birthday, and counting...
Man, only a month has passed since school began, and I already have 5 test to do in the next week or so! And I'm not counting the oral tests (especially physics)! I also still have to finish writing my articles for the school magazine, too, and homework always comes in massive amounts, so that means no more writing part 2 until I get past next week.
Q.U. wrote:What I say is not because DA doesn't give you proper opportunities. Face it, DA is a well organised and user-friendly hosting site. I have no problems with its looks, coding or whatever else. The only problem is that once you delve in the site too much you will find out about the lame aspects. So just posting your stuff there and using it to view mature content is not bad, but if things start happening around you it's going to be trouble. The rules, admins, and some parts of its community are crap.
Q.U. wrote:I have to write an assignment even though I've just passed the 1st week... No miracles there.
Q.U. wrote:Seems you are taking advantage of your work being done up till now to bump your thread every time it falls lower on the thread list. :p How evil.

SAN DIEGO – PLNU catcher Ricky Gingras was taken by the Houston Astros in the 18th round of the 2012 First-Year Player Draft on Wednesday, the 549th overall pick. Gingras hit a team-best .357 for the Sea Lions in 2012, collecting 56 hits in 157 at-bats. The 6'2" slugger also belted six doubles with seven homeruns and 36 RBI. He earned All-Golden State Athletic Conference honors at season's end.
"I had no idea what round I'd be taken in," said Gingras who got the call from the Astros shortly after his selection. "It's been a dream of mine to play baseball professionally since I was a little kid. I'm excited to get that chance."
Read the full story.
PLNU professor of music and department chair Dr. Paul Kenyon was recently honored as the University Music Educator of the Year by the California Music Educators Association (CMEA) Southern Border Section in partnership with the San Diego County Office of Education.
The CMEA and County honored city and county music educators and site administrators for their exceptional work on April 30 at an event called "Fortissimo: Awards of Excellence in Music Education."
Ron Jessee (78), visual and performing arts coordinator and California Region 9 arts lead for the San Diego County Office of Education presented Kenyon his award.
"During his tenure as music department chair at Point Loma Nazarene University, Paul Kenyon has been an avid advocate of the California Music Educators Association," said Jessee. "Through his leadership, PLNU has been a partner in supporting the production of the CMEA annual conference, yearly honor choir, band and orchestra events, and other academic arts gatherings that are related to the work of CMEA. Paul is a member of the San Diego Arts Network, a consortium of administrators who work together to build capacity in all the arts and to help schools maintain programs in good and bad times. He is in his last year as the music department chair, and CMEA believes he is uniquely deserving of this recognition."
In April, PLNU was announced in San Diego Metro Magazine as one of "San Diego's Most Trusted Brands." This award represents local businesses and organizations that have earned the respect of their customers because of their dedication to "high standards of professionalism, integrity and accountability."
PLNU prepares students not only for the local workforce, but also for global impact. PLNU students are equipped with intellectual and spiritual strength, as they get involved with local ministries and overseas missions – and this makes all the difference.
"The credit for this award really goes to everyone in the PLNU community. The PLNU brand is created by all of the interactions people have with our faculty, staff, students, and alumni," said Michele Corbett, PLNU director of marketing and creative services.
Point Loma Nazarene University has been named one of the City of San Diego's "Recyclers of the Year." The winners of the 20th Annual Waste Reduction and Recycling Awards were honored April 12 at the San Diego Zoo.
The awards are given to recognize businesses and nonprofit organizations that help reduce waste, especially waste that would have otherwise ended up at the Miramar Landfill.
PLNU was honored alongside other environmentally savvy organizations such as the New Children's Museum, Sea World, the San Diego Zoo Global, Qualcomm, Albertson's, and the San Diego Padres.
Among PLNU's many green efforts are a solar panel system providing nearly a megawatt of photovoltaic solar power; solar powered hot water heating in the residence halls; wide scale recycling; food waste composting; water-saving efforts such as dual-flush toilets, waterless urinals, water-saving shower switches, filtered water "hydration stations" on campus where students can fill up reusable water bottles; and educational and awareness building efforts such as a minor in sustainability and an annual "Creation Care Week."
"We are honored to be one of San Diego's Recyclers of the Year," said campus sustainability coordinator Alexandria Bennett. "Caring for God's creation is one of the university's core values, and we are committed to continually striving to be wise stewards of the earth and its resources."
The Fermanian School of Business of Point Loma Nazarene University named its "Student-Entrepreneur of the Year" at the annual Entrepreneur Enrichment Program (EEP) Banquet on Wednesday, April 4, 2012.
The team of 2011 alum Nitasha Stiritz and current seniors Arthur Cachero and Blake Harrison received the top entrepreneur award for their innovative 'Launch Pad' business plan, which will produce a web-based application to communicate critical firm startup information via enhanced video in 1-2 minutes to a prospective investor or backer. The Launch Pad product will allow small startups to utilize quickly and efficiently tools that typically have been available to only larger firms. From the Entrepreneur Enrichment Endowment, created concurrently with the launching of the EEP in 2007, a cash award of $2,500 was provided to the Launch Pad team.
Receiving $1,000, including the $500 Dave and Dorothy Latter Free Enterprise Award, was senior business student Matt Joslyn for his project, "Plane & Simple Tours." His business plan is to provide students with inexpensive trips and services that cater toward their liking. By equipping all travelers with the basic tools to create their own unique adventure at low cost, he plans to attract a broader range of travelers. The four other participating projects each received smaller cash awards. In addition, Phil Herbig, chief financial officer of WesPak Sales in Dinuba, Calif., received the "Inspirational Mentor Award" chosen by his peers and entrepreneurs, and the Plane and Simple Plan he co-mentored with Robert Harp and Stephen Miller will receive a $15,000 comprehensive social media marketing plan provided by the San Diego-based firm ZBiz, founded by PLNU alum Zach Johnson.
"Over the past five years, I have had the privilege of being a mentor and a friend to young men and women who have a vision for the future," said Herbig. "I have found the mentor process to be reciprocal as these young men and women force me to think outside the box."
The banquet represented the completion of the fifth year of PLNU's Entrepreneur Enrichment Program. The business plans this year represented a diversity of for-profit and non-profit interests from students and recent graduates from both the undergraduate and MBA programs at PLNU. Each fall semester, students are encouraged to present their business ideas in early stage form at the EEP Exposition, where the projects are evaluated by experienced entrepreneurs, including past EEP participants. Continuing projects were then assigned a team of mentors comprised of three, experienced business professionals, including the past PLNU Entrepreneurs of the Year, who provided counsel and advice to the projects and entrepreneurs. The EEP is unique in that it allows both undergraduate students from all disciplines and also MBA students to participate in the same entrepreneurial program.
EEP co-founder and mentor Craig Van Hulzen, CEO of Van Hulzen Asset Management in Folsom, Calif., reflected on the mentoring process. "The extraordinary effort of the student participants, using their free time to build on a dream, to work with peers, willing to learn from mentors, and to create opportunity for themselves is highly commendable. It speaks well of their character, their families, and PLNU's Fermanian Business School. These are the qualities of successful entrepreneurs." All of the plans were privately reviewed and then scored by a group of twenty mentors and EEP judges, and the results were kept confidential until the announcement at the banquet on Wednesday night. Additional information on the EEP and related activities of the Fermanian School of Business and the Fermanian Business & Economic Institute at Point Loma Nazarene University can be found at www.pointloma.edu/Fermanian.
The California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) recently announced reaccreditation for PLNU's School of Education (SOE) and all of its credential programs. "This continuing accreditation reflects the high quality of PLNU's education programs and credentials as we develop and serve education professionals," said Dr. Bob Brower, PLNU president. "Congratulations to Dr. Gary Railsback [SOE dean] and all the members of the School of Education for a job well done!" PLNU's School of Education offers undergraduate degrees, master's degrees, credentials, and certificates. The programs are designed to help students grow professionally and personally, resulting in the capacity to think critically, engage issues with their minds and hearts, and make decisions that make a difference. All this happens within the context of a highly supportive Christian community, where faculty members serve as mentors. The SOE's district partnerships help serve local education communities and PLNU education students at the same time. Graduate program regional centers are located in Arcadia, Bakersfield, the Inland Empire, and San Diego (Mission Valley). PLNU is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, and the School of Education credential and certificate programs are accredited by the CTC. PLNU's School of Education is also a candidate for accreditation by NCATE.
